BASIS OF PRESENTATION:
Unless the context otherwise requires, the terms “Company,” “CBI,” “we,” “our,” or “us” refer to Constellation Brands, Inc. and its subsidiaries. We have prepared the consolidated financial statements included herein, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission 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 consolidated financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 29, 2016 (the “2016 Annual Report”). Results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of annual results. During the three months ended August 31, 2016, we recorded an immaterial adjustment on our balance sheet for the conversion of noncontrolling equity interest to long-term debt of $132.0 million related to a prior period (see Note 7).
