1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
We have prepared the Financial Statements, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC applicable to quarterly reporting on Form 10-Q and reflect, in our opinion, all adjustments necessary to present fairly our financial information. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements, prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, have been condensed or omitted as permitted by such rules and regulations. These Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the 2022 Annual Report. Results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of annual results.
2. INVENTORIES
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (primarily computed in accordance with the first-in, first-out method) or net realizable value. Elements of cost include materials, labor, and overhead and consist of the following:

| Finished case goods | 620.5 | 583.1 | |||||||||
| $ | 1,656.4 | $ | 1,573.2 |
We assess the valuation of our inventories and reduce the carrying value of those inventories that are obsolete or in excess of our forecasted usage to their estimated net realizable value based on analyses and assumptions including, but not limited to, historical usage, future demand, and market requirements. We evaluated the carrying value of certain inventories and recognized the following in cost of product sold within our consolidated results of operations:

3. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS
Overview
Our risk management and derivative accounting policies are presented in Notes 1 and 6 of our consolidated financial statements included in our 2022 Annual Report and have not changed significantly for the three months ended May 31, 2022.
We have an investment in certain equity securities and other rights which provide us with the option to purchase an additional ownership interest in the equity securities of Canopy (see Note 7). This investment is included in securities measured at fair value and is accounted for at fair value, with the net gain (loss) from the changes in fair value of this investment recognized in income (loss) from unconsolidated investments (see Note 4).

| Commodity derivative contracts | $ | 342.0 | $ | 291.1 | |||||||
Credit risk
We are exposed to credit-related losses if the counterparties to our derivative contracts default. This credit risk is limited to the fair value of the derivative contracts. To manage this risk, we contract only with major financial institutions that have earned investment-grade credit ratings and with whom we have standard International Swaps and Derivatives Association agreements which allow for net settlement of the derivative contracts. We have also established counterparty credit guidelines that are regularly monitored. Because of these safeguards, we believe the risk of loss from counterparty default to be immaterial.
In addition, our derivative instruments are not subject to credit rating contingencies or collateral requirements. As of May 31, 2022, the estimated fair value of derivative instruments in a net liability position due to counterparties was $3.9 million. If we were required to settle the net liability position under these derivative instruments on May 31, 2022, we would have had sufficient available liquidity on hand to satisfy this obligation.
Results of period derivative activity
The estimated fair value and location of our derivative instruments on our balance sheets are as follows (see Note 4):

4. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Authoritative guidance establishes a framework for measuring fair value, including a hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available. The hierarchy includes three levels:
-
Level 1 inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
-
Level 2 inputs include data points that are observable such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical assets or similar assets or liabilities in markets
| Constellation Brands, Inc. Q1 FY 2023 Form 10-Q | #WORTHREACHINGFOR I 8 |
| FINANCIAL STATEMENTS | NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS | Table of Contents |
that are not active, and inputs (other than quoted prices) such as volatility, interest rates, and yield curves that are observable for the asset and liability, either directly or indirectly; and
- Level 3 inputs are unobservable data points for the asset or liability, and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability.
Fair value methodology
The following methods and assumptions are used to estimate the fair value for each class of our financial instruments:
Foreign currency and commodity derivative contracts
The fair value is estimated using market-based inputs, obtained from independent pricing services, entered into valuation models. These valuation models require various inputs, including contractual terms, market foreign exchange prices, market commodity prices, interest-rate yield curves, and currency volatilities, as applicable (Level 2 fair value measurement).
Interest rate swap and Pre-issuance hedge contracts
The fair value is estimated based on quoted market prices from respective counterparties. Quotes are corroborated by using discounted cash flow calculations based upon forward interest-rate yield curves, which are obtained from independent pricing services (Level 2 fair value measurement).
Canopy investment
Equity securities, Warrants – The November 2018 Canopy Warrants consist of three tranches of warrants, including 88.5 million Tranche A Warrants expiring November 1, 2023, which are currently exercisable, 38.4 million Tranche B Warrants expiring November 1, 2026, and 12.8 million Tranche C Warrants expiring November 1, 2026. The inputs used to estimate the fair value of the November 2018 Canopy Warrants are as follows (1) (2):

(1)The exercise price for the Tranche C Warrants is based on the VWAP Exercise Price. The Tranche C Warrants are not included in the table as there is no fair value assigned.
(2)In connection with the Acreage Transaction, we obtained other rights which include a share repurchase credit. If Canopy has not purchased the lesser of 27,378,866 Canopy common shares, or C$1,583.0 million worth of Canopy common shares for cancellation between April 18, 2019, and two-years after the full exercise of the Tranche A Warrants, we will be credited an amount that will reduce the aggregate exercise price otherwise payable upon each exercise of the Tranche B Warrants and Tranche C Warrants. The credit will be an amount equal to the difference between C$1,583.0 million and the actual price paid by Canopy in purchasing its common shares for cancellation. The likelihood of receiving the share repurchase credit if we were to fully exercise the Tranche A Warrants is remote, therefore, no fair value has been assigned.

Debt securities, Convertible – We have elected the fair value option to account for the Canopy Debt Securities acquired in June 2018 for C$200.0 million, or $150.5 million. Interest income on the Canopy Debt Securities is calculated using the effective interest method and is recognized separately from the changes in fair value in interest expense. The Canopy Debt Securities have a contractual maturity of five years from the date of issuance but may be converted prior to maturity by either party upon the occurrence of certain events. The fair value is estimated using a binomial lattice option-pricing model (Level 2 fair value measurement), which includes an estimate of the credit spread based on market spreads using bond data as of the valuation date. For additional information on the Canopy Debt Securities refer to Note 7.

Short-term borrowings
Our short-term borrowings consist of our commercial paper program and the revolving credit facility under our senior credit facility. The revolving credit facility is a variable interest rate bearing note with a fixed margin, adjustable based upon our debt rating (as defined in our senior credit facility). For these short-term borrowings the carrying value approximates the fair value.
Long-term debt
The term loan under our term credit agreement is a variable interest rate bearing note with a fixed margin, adjustable based upon our debt rating. The carrying value approximates the fair value of the term loan. The fair value of the remaining fixed interest rate long-term debt is estimated by discounting cash flows using interest rates currently available for debt with similar terms and maturities (Level 2 fair value measurement).
The carrying amounts of certain of our financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and accounts payable, approximate fair value as of May 31, 2022, and February 28, 2022, due

As of May 31, 2022, the carrying amount of long-term debt, including the current portion, was $10,853.3 million, compared with an estimated fair value of $10,442.9 million. As of February 28, 2022, the carrying amount of long-term debt, including the current portion, was $10,093.5 million, compared with an estimated fair value of $10,345.3 million.

Long-lived assets
In April 2021, our Board of Directors authorized management to sell or abandon the Mexicali Brewery. Subsequently, management determined that we will be unable to use or repurpose certain assets at the Mexicali Brewery. Accordingly, for the first quarter of Fiscal 2022, long-lived assets with a carrying value of $685.9 million were written down to their estimated fair value of $20.0 million, resulting in an impairment of $665.9 million. This impairment was included in impairment of brewery construction in progress within our consolidated results of operations for the three months ended May 31, 2021. Our estimate of fair value was determined based on the expected salvage value of the assets. The Mexicali Brewery is a component of the Beer segment. We continue to work with government officials in Mexico to (i) determine next steps for our suspended Mexicali Brewery construction project, (ii) pursue various forms of recovery for capitalized costs and additional expenses incurred in establishing the brewery, however, there can be no assurance of any recoveries, and (iii) explore options to add further capacity at other locations in Mexico, including the construction of the Veracruz Brewery where there is ample water and we will have a skilled workforce to meet our long-term needs. In the medium-term, under normal operating conditions, we have ample capacity at the Nava and Obregon breweries to meet consumer needs based on current growth forecasts and current and planned production capabilities. Expansion, optimization, and/or construction activities continue at our current brewery locations under our Mexico Beer Projects to align with our anticipated future growth expectations.

Canopy Equity Method Investment
We complement our beverage alcohol strategy with our investment in Canopy, a leading provider of medicinal and recreational cannabis products.

| Equity in earnings (losses) from Canopy and related activities | $ | (165.0) | $ | (155.8) |
Canopy has various equity and convertible debt securities outstanding, including primarily equity awards granted to its employees, and options and warrants issued to various third parties, including our November 2018 Canopy Warrants, Canopy Debt Securities, and the Acreage Financial Instrument (a call option for Canopy to acquire 70% of the shares of Acreage at a fixed exchange ratio and 30% at a floating exchange ratio). As of May 31, 2022, the exercise and/or conversion of certain of these outstanding securities could have a significant effect on our share of Canopy’s reported earnings or losses and our ownership interest in Canopy.
We have evaluated the Canopy Equity Method Investment as of May 31, 2022, and determined that there was not an other-than-temporary impairment. Our conclusion was based on several contributing factors, including: (i) the period of time for which the fair value has been less than the carrying value, (ii) an expectation that Canopy’s results will improve, (iii) an expectation that the Canopy stock price will recover in the near-term, and (iv) our ability and intent to hold the investment until that recovery. We will continue to review the Canopy Equity Method Investment for an other-than-temporary impairment. If Canopy’s stock price does not recover above our C$20.54 carrying value in the near-term, it may result in an impairment of our Canopy Equity Method Investment. There may also be a future impairment of our Canopy Equity Method Investment if our expectations about Canopy’s prospective results and cash flows decline, which could be influenced by a variety of factors

including adverse market conditions or if Canopy records a significant impairment of goodwill or intangible or other long-lived assets, makes significant asset sales, or has changes in senior management.
The following table presents summarized financial information for Canopy prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We recognize our equity in earnings (losses) for Canopy on a two-month lag. Accordingly, we recognized our share of Canopy’s earnings (losses) for the periods January through March 2022 and January through March 2021 in our three months ended May 31, 2022, and May 31, 2021, results, respectively. The three months ended May 31, 2022, includes substantial costs designed to drive efficiency and accelerate Canopy’s path to profitability. The amounts shown represent 100% of Canopy’s reported results of operations for the respective periods.

Subsequent event
Canopy Debt Securities
On June 29, 2022, certain holders of Canopy Debt Securities agreed to sell C$255 million of their Canopy Debt Securities to Canopy at 99% of principal value in exchange for newly issued shares of Canopy common stock. As part of this transaction, we agreed to sell C$100 million of our Canopy Debt Securities in exchange for Canopy common shares. The number of common shares issuable will be based on the volume-weighted average trading price of Canopy's common shares on the Nasdaq for a 10-day trading period beginning on and including June 30, 2022, provided that the exchange price will not be less than $2.50 or more than $3.50. As a result of the exchange, we will receive between 30.7 million and 21.9 million Canopy common shares in July 2022. This sale is not expected to significantly change our Canopy ownership percentage and we will continue to hold C$100 million of our Canopy Debt Securities following this transaction. As part of this transaction, the Canopy Debt Securities were amended to remove Canopy’s right to settle the Canopy Debt Securities on conversion into Canopy equity shares. As a result, the Canopy Debt Securities may only be settled in cash.

-
The refinement of certain negative covenants; and
-
The replacement of LIBOR rates with rates based on term SOFR.

We and our subsidiaries are subject to covenants that are contained in the 2022 Credit Agreement and the 2022 Term Credit Agreement, including those restricting the incurrence of additional subsidiary indebtedness, additional liens, mergers and consolidations, transactions with affiliates, and sale and leaseback transactions, in each case subject to numerous conditions, exceptions, and thresholds. The financial covenants are limited to a minimum interest coverage ratio and a maximum net leverage ratio.
Commercial paper program
We have a commercial paper program which provides for the issuance of up to an aggregate principal amount of $2.0 billion of commercial paper. Our commercial paper program is backed by unused commitments under our revolving credit facility under our 2022 Credit Agreement. Accordingly, outstanding borrowings under our commercial paper program reduce the amount available under our revolving credit facility. As of May 31, 2022, we had $124.0 million of outstanding borrowings, net of unamortized discount, under our commercial paper program with a weighted average annual interest rate of 1.3% and a weighted average remaining term of five days.
Pre-issuance hedge contracts
In connection with the May 2022 Senior Notes, we entered into Pre-issuance hedge contracts, which were designated as cash flow hedges. As a result of these agreements, we hedged the treasury rate volatility on $300.0 million of future debt issuances. In May 2022, we terminated and settled all outstanding Pre-issuance hedge contracts, and recognized an unrealized gain, net of income tax effect, of $15.3 million in AOCI within our consolidated balance sheets. The gain on Pre-issuance hedge contracts is being amortized over 10 years to interest expense within our consolidated results of operations. See “Senior notes” below.

In May 2022, we used a portion of the proceeds from the May 2022 Senior Notes to complete a series of cash tender offers to purchase the 3.20% February 2018 Senior Notes and the 4.25% May 2013 Senior Notes validly tendered pursuant to the tender offers. We settled the tender offers with holders of approximately 67%

| FINANCIAL STATEMENTS | NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS | Table of Contents |
and 65% of the total outstanding principal amount of the 3.20% February 2018 Senior Notes and the 4.25% May 2013 Senior Notes, respectively. Total cash consideration paid for these purchases was $1,096.0 million and the total carrying amount of the notes was $1,080.7 million, resulting in a loss on extinguishment of debt of $15.3 million (including an immaterial amount of fees and other costs associated with the tender offers), which is included within our consolidated results. In addition, we paid any accrued interest on the tendered notes up to, but not including the date of settlement. In June 2022, we redeemed the remaining $198.2 million and $369.8 million outstanding principal balance of the 3.20% February 2018 Senior Notes and the 4.25% May 2013 Senior Notes, respectively. Total cash consideration paid was $575.5 million, which included the remaining principal amount of the notes of $568.0 million and a make-whole premium of $7.5 million which will be included in loss on extinguishment of debt within our consolidated results. See “Debt payments” below.
Debt payments
As of May 31, 2022, the required principal repayments under long-term debt obligations (excluding unamortized debt issuance costs and unamortized discounts of $63.6 million and $21.3 million, respectively) for the remaining nine months of Fiscal 2023 and for each of the five succeeding fiscal years and thereafter are as follows:

9. INCOME TAXES
Our effective tax rate for the three months ended May 31, 2022, and May 31, 2021, was 23.9% and 1.5%, respectively.
For the three months ended May 31, 2022, our effective tax rate was higher than the federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to valuation allowances on the unrealized net loss from changes in fair value of our investment in Canopy and Canopy equity in earnings (losses), partially offset by the benefit of lower effective tax rates applicable to our foreign businesses.
For the three months ended May 31, 2021, our effective tax rate was lower than the federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to (i) valuation allowances on the unrealized net loss from changes in fair value of our investment in Canopy and Canopy equity in earnings (losses) and (ii) the impact of the long-lived asset impairment of brewery construction in progress, partially offset by the benefit of lower effective tax rates applicable to our foreign businesses.

The Reclassification Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, and covenants of each of the parties thereto for a transaction of this type.
11. NET INCOME (LOSS) PER COMMON SHARE ATTRIBUTABLE TO CBI
For the three months ended May 31, 2022, net income (loss) per common share – diluted for Class A Stock has been computed using the if-converted method and assumes the exercise of stock options using the treasury stock method and the conversion of Class B Stock as this method is more dilutive than the two-class method. For the three months ended May 31, 2022, net income (loss) per common share – diluted for Class B Stock has been computed using the two-class method and does not assume conversion of Class B Stock into shares of Class A Stock. For the three months ended May 31, 2021, net income (loss) per common share – diluted for Class A Stock and Class B Stock have been computed using the two-class method.

13. BUSINESS SEGMENT INFORMATION
Our internal management financial reporting consists of three business divisions: (i) Beer, (ii) Wine and Spirits, and (iii) Canopy and we report our operating results in four segments: (i) Beer, (ii) Wine and Spirits, (iii) Corporate Operations and Other, and (iv) Canopy. The Canopy Equity Method Investment makes up the Canopy segment.
In the Beer segment, our portfolio consists of high-end imported beer brands, craft beer, and ABAs. We have an exclusive perpetual brand license to import, market, and sell our Mexican beer portfolio in the U.S. In the Wine and Spirits segment, we sell a portfolio that includes higher-margin, higher-growth wine brands complemented by certain higher-end spirits brands. Amounts included in the Corporate Operations and Other segment consist of costs of executive management, corporate development, corporate finance, corporate growth and strategy, human resources, internal audit, investor relations, legal, public relations, and information technology, as well as our investments made through our corporate venture capital function. All costs included in the Corporate Operations and Other segment are general costs that are applicable to the consolidated group and are, therefore, not allocated to the other reportable segments. All costs reported within the Corporate Operations and Other segment are not included in our CODM’s evaluation of the operating income (loss) performance of the other reportable segments. The business segments reflect how our operations are managed, how resources are allocated, how operating performance is evaluated by senior management, and the structure of our internal financial reporting. Long-lived tangible assets and total asset information by segment is not provided to, or reviewed by, our CODM as it is not used to make strategic decisions, allocate resources, or assess performance.
In addition, management excludes Comparable Adjustments from its evaluation of the results of each operating segment as these Comparable Adjustments are not reflective of core operations of the segments. Segment operating performance and the incentive compensation of segment management are evaluated based on core segment operating income (loss) which does not include the impact of these Comparable Adjustments.
We evaluate segment operating performance based on operating income (loss) of the respective business units. Comparable Adjustments that impacted comparability in our segment operating income (loss) for each period are as follows:
