CBD is a small molecule that will not be damaged by ice crystal formation. If anything low temperatures would preserve the CBD molecules by slowing down any CBD degrading reactions.
After some quick research this is what I found:
CBD is photosensitive and prone to air oxidation: this means that if exposed to air or light the CBD will react and become CBN.
CBD when it is still in the plant (the stalks and stems) is protected from air and (for the most part) light.
CBD, once extracted from the plant, degrades to CBN fairly quickly if stored at 5 degrees C and above- CBD CAN BE STORED FOR YEARS IF TEMPERATURE IS KEPT AT OR BELOW 4 DEGREES CELCIUS.
This is the paper from which I drew my information about temperature:

In my scientific opinion:
Anyone telling you that the stalks, leaves, and stems were frozen and therefore rendered unusable is a lying bastard trying to acquire cheap shares at your loss.
Furthermore anyone with any critical thinking skills should be questioning such individuals thusly:
-How do you know the plant material was frozen?
-Are you purporting to have some kind of inside knowledge? <--If the answer is "yes" this is probably the most incriminating indication that the claimant does NOT.
-What are the scientific objective sources for the claims you are making?
The onus is on the person who presents information to verify their claims, and if they do not, and you cannot verify their claims yourself, it is highly likely their information is suspect.
