Equity method investments
The following table presents summarized financial information for Canopy presented 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 fourth quarter fiscal 2019 and first quarter fiscal 2020 earnings (losses) for the period January through June 2019 in our six months ended August 31, 2019. We recognized our share of Canopy’s first quarter fiscal 2020 earnings (losses) for the period April through June 2019, in our three months ended August 31, 2019 results. The amounts shown represent 100% of Canopy’s results of operations for the respective periods. However, they exclude the impact the June 2019 Warrant Modification Loss because it was recorded within equity.
