Exhibit 99.1

**Westrock Coffee Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2022 Results and Provides 2023 Outlook** 

**Net Sales for the Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2022 Increase by 20% and 24%, Respectively**

**Net Loss of $55.5 Million and Adjusted EBITDA of $60.1 Million for the Full Year 2022, Representing Adjusted EBITDA Growth of 27%** 

**Strategic Acquisition of West Coast-Based Bixby Coffee Expands Influencer Marketing Sales Channel**

**Adjusted EBITDA Expected to Grow 10% to 25% in Fiscal 2023**

Little Rock, Ark. (March 14, 2023) – Westrock Coffee Company (Nasdaq: WEST) ("Westrock Coffee" or "the Company") today reported financial results for the fourth quarter and full year 2022.

Scott T. Ford, CEO and Co-founder stated, "We are pleased to announce strong growth in net sales, gross profit and Adjusted EBITDA for full year 2022. I am very grateful to the team for their near heroic efforts that delivered record annual results, even as they dealt with the damaging macroeconomic challenges of an inflation surge and record gasoline prices, while simultaneously contending with internal capacity constraints and increased operating expenses brought about by the late arrival of critical manufacturing equipment in both our single serve cup and extracts units. As we turn to 2023 with the requisite equipment to meet our legacy customers' demands now operational, we are focused on continuing to scale our existing capabilities in service to our customers. Among our top priorities is delivering our Conway, Arkansas extract and ready-to-drink facility on time and on budget, the benefits of which will be material to our business."

**Full Year 2022 Highlights**

● Consolidated net sales were $867.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2022, an increase of $169.7 million, or 24%, compared to the year ended December 31, 2021.

This represents net sales growth of 24%, and Adjusted EBITDA growth of 30%.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

● Sustainable Sourcing & Traceability ("SS&T") segment, net of intersegment revenues, contributed $182.6 million and $6.1 million of Adjusted EBITDA for the year ended December 31, 2022, compared to $147.1 million and $5.7 million, respectively, in the year ended December 31, 2021. This represents net sales growth of 24%, and Adjusted EBITDA growth of 7%.

**Fourth Quarter Highlights**

● Consolidated net sales were $227.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2022, an increase of $37.3 million, or 20%, compared to the fourth quarter of 2021.

● Consolidated gross profit for the fourth quarter of 2022 was $34.3 million and included $2.7 million of non-cash mark-to-market losses, compared to consolidated gross profit of $39.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2021, which included $1.6 million of non-cash mark-to-market gains.

● Net loss for the period was $31.9 million compared to a net loss of $5.2 million for the same period in 2021. The $31.9 million net loss for the fourth quarter of 2022 included $4.4 million of acquisition, restructuring and integration expense and $24.5 million of non-cash expense from the change in fair value of warrant liabilities. Net loss of $5.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2021 included $5.1 million of acquisition, restructuring and integration expense.

● Adjusted EBITDA was $17.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2022, an increase of $3.3 million, or 23%, compared to the fourth quarter of 2021.

● Beverage Solutions segment contributed $192.6 million of net sales and $15.2 million of Adjusted EBITDA for the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to $150.5 million and $11.5 million, respectively, for the fourth quarter of 2021. This represents net sales growth of 28%, and Adjusted EBITDA growth of 31%.

● SS&T segment, net of intersegment revenues, contributed $35.1 million and $2.3 million of Adjusted EBITDA for the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to $39.9 million and $2.7 million, respectively, for the fourth quarter of 2021.

**Business Highlights**

● As previously announced, on February 14, 2023, the Company amended its existing $350 million credit agreement to establish a new class of incremental term loan commitments in the form of a senior secured delayed draw term loan credit facility in the aggregate principal amount of $50 million.

● As previously announced, on February 28, 2023, the Company completed the acquisition of Bixby Roasting Co. ("Bixby"), a specialty-grade roaster that is a leader in the emerging influencer-led brand space. The acquisition, which includes Bixby's roasting facility in Los Angeles, CA, allows Westrock Coffee to continue to expand its omnichannel product marketing and development resources as we capitalize on shifting consumer consumption trends toward consumption associated with personal brands. Bixby co-founders Miles Fisher and Remington Hotchkis both joined the Westrock Coffee senior management team as part of the transaction. The terms of the transaction were not disclosed.

**2023 Outlook**

The Company expects consolidated Adjusted EBITDA to grow 10% to 25% in fiscal 2023, representing a range of $66 million to $75 million. This guidance is an estimate of what the Company believes is realizable as of the date of this release, and actual results may vary from this guidance and the variations may be material. Management will provide additional details regarding the 2023 outlook on the earnings results call later today.

The Company is not readily able to provide a reconciliation of forecasted Adjusted EBITDA to forecasted GAAP net income without unreasonable effort because certain items that impact such figure are uncertain or outside the Company's control and cannot be reasonably predicted. Such items include the impacts of non-cash gains or losses resulting from mark-to-market adjustments of derivatives and the change in fair value of warrant liabilities, among others.

**Non-GAAP Financial Measures**

We refer to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA in our analysis of our results of operations, which are not required by, or presented in accordance with, accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"). While we believe that net (loss) income, as defined by GAAP, is the most appropriate earnings measure, we also believe that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are important non-GAAP supplemental measures of operating performance as they contribute to a meaningful evaluation of the Company's future operating performance and comparisons to the Company's past operating performance. Additionally, we use these non-GAAP financial measures in evaluating the performance of our segments, to make operational and financial decisions and in our budgeting and planning process. The Company believes that providing these non-GAAP financial measures to investors helps investors evaluate the Company's operating performance, profitability and business trends in a way that is consistent with how management evaluates such performance.

We define "EBITDA" as net (loss) income, as defined by GAAP, before interest expense, provision for income taxes and depreciation and amortization. We define "Adjusted EBITDA" as EBITDA before equity-based compensation expense and the impact, which may be recurring in nature, of acquisition, restructuring and integration related costs, including management services and consulting agreements entered into in connection with the acquisition of S&D Coffee, Inc., impairment charges, changes in the fair value of warrant liabilities, non-cash mark-to-market adjustments, certain costs specifically excluded from the calculation of EBITDA under our material debt agreements, such as facility start-up costs, the write off of unamortized deferred financing costs, costs incurred as a result of the early repayment of debt, gains or losses on dispositions, and other similar or infrequent items (although we may not have had such charges in the periods presented). We believe EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are important supplemental measures to net (loss) income because they provide additional information to evaluate our operating performance on an unleveraged basis. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA is calculated similar to defined terms in our material debt agreements used to determine compliance with specific financial covenants.

Since EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, they should be viewed in addition to, and not be considered as alternatives for, net (loss) income determined in accordance with GAAP. Further, our computations of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to that reported by other companies that define EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do.
