**C. Revenue Recognition**

The breakdown of revenue during the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended September 27, 2025 and September 28, 2024 were as follows:

---

| | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **Thirteen weeks ended** | **Thirteen weeks ended** | **Thirty-nine weeks ended** | **Thirty-nine weeks ended** |
|  | **September 27, 2025** | **September 28, 2024** | **September 27, 2025** | **September 28, 2024** |
| Shipments to domestic distributors | 93% | 94% | 94% | 94% |
| Shipments to international distributors | 5% | 4% | 5% | 5% |
| Sales at retail locations | 2% | 2% | 1% | 1% |
|  | 100% | 100% | 100% | 100% |

---

The Company recognizes revenue when obligations under the terms of a contract with its customer are satisfied; generally, this occurs with the transfer of title of its products. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration expected to be received in exchange for transferring products. If the conditions for revenue recognition are not met, the Company defers the revenue until all conditions are met. As of September 27, 2025 and December 28, 2024, the Company has deferred $16.8 million and $11.3 million, respectively, in revenue related to product shipped prior to these dates. These amounts are included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Customer promotional discount programs are entered into by the Company with distributors for certain periods of time. The reimbursements for discounts to distributors are recorded as reductions to net revenue and were $19.1 million and $53.0 million for the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended September 27, 2025, respectively, and $20.1 million and $50.4 million for the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended September 28, 2024, respectively. The agreed-upon discount rates are applied to certain distributors' sales to retailers, based on volume metrics, in order to determine the total discounted amount. The computation of the discount allowance requires that management make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the timing and amounts of revenue and liabilities recorded. Actual promotional discounts owed and paid have historically been in line with allowances recorded by the Company; however, the amounts could differ from the estimated allowance.

Customer programs and incentives are a common practice in the alcohol beverage industry. Amounts paid in connection with customer programs and incentives are recorded as reductions to net revenue or as advertising, promotional and selling expenses, based on the nature of the expenditure. Customer incentives and other payments made to distributors are primarily based upon performance of certain marketing and advertising activities. Depending on applicable state laws and regulations, these activities promoting the Company's products may include, but are not limited to point-of-sale and merchandise placement, samples, product displays, promotional programs at retail locations and meals, travel and entertainment. Amounts paid to customers in connection with these programs that were recorded as reductions to net revenue or as advertising, promotional and selling expenses for the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended September 27, 2025 and September 28, 2024 were as follows:

---

| | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **Thirteen weeks ended** | **Thirteen weeks ended** | **Thirty-nine weeks ended** | **Thirty-nine weeks ended** |
|  | **September 27, 2025** | **September 28, 2024** | **September 27, 2025** | **September 28, 2024** |
|  | **(in thousands)** | **(in thousands)** | **(in thousands)** | **(in thousands)** |
| Amount recorded as a reduction to net revenue | $11930 | $9109 | $30876 | $22823 |
| Amount recorded as advertising, promotional and selling expenses | 6519 | 5277 | 15608 | 14537 |
| Total customer programs and incentives | $18449 | $14386 | $46484 | $37360 |

---

Costs recognized in net revenues include, but are not limited to, promotional discounts, sales incentives and certain other promotional activities. Costs recognized in advertising, promotional and selling expenses include point of sale materials, samples and advertising expenditures in local markets. These costs are recorded as incurred, generally when invoices are received; however certain estimates are required at the period end. Estimates are based on historical and projected experience for each type of program or customer and have historically been in line with actual costs incurred.

**D. Inventories**

Inventories consist of raw materials, work in process and finished goods which are stated at the lower of cost, determined on the first-in, first-out basis, or net realizable value. Raw materials principally consist of hops, packaging, flavorings, fruit juices, and other brewing materials. The Company's goal is to maintain on hand a supply of at least one year for essential hop varieties, in order to limit the risk of an unexpected reduction in supply. Inventories are generally classified as current assets. The Company classifies hops inventory in excess of two years of forecasted usage in other long-term assets. The cost elements of work in process and finished goods inventory consist of raw materials, direct labor and manufacturing overhead. Inventories consist of the following:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **September 27,<br>2025** | **December 28, <br>2024** |
| Current inventory: |  |  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Raw materials | $36830 | $48321 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Work in process | 20591 | 18878 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Finished goods | 44295 | 49960 |
| Total current inventory | 101716 | 117159 |
| Long term inventory | 7703 | 6076 |
| Total inventory | $109419 | $123235 |

---

As of September 27, 2025 and December 28, 2024, the Company has recorded inventory obsolescence reserves of $11.8 million and $16.3 million, respectively.

**E. Goodwill and Intangible Assets**

The Company has recorded intangible assets with indefinite lives and goodwill for which impairment testing is required at least annually or more frequently if events or circumstances indicate that these assets might be impaired. The Company performs its annual impairment tests and re-evaluates the useful lives of other intangible assets with indefinite lives at the annual impairment test measurement date in the third quarter of each fiscal year or when circumstances arise that indicate a possible impairment or change in useful life might exist.

**Goodwill.** The guidance for goodwill impairment testing allows an entity to assess qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances leads to a determination that it is more likely than not that the estimated fair value of a reporting unit, of which the Company has one, is less than its carrying amount or to proceed directly to performing a quantitative impairment test. Under the quantitative assessment, the estimated fair value of the Company's reporting unit is compared to its carrying value, including goodwill. The estimate of fair value of the Company's reporting unit is generally calculated based on an income approach using the discounted cash flow method supplemented by the market approach which considers the Company's market capitalization and enterprise value. If the estimated fair value of the Company's reporting unit is less than the carrying value of its reporting unit, a goodwill impairment will be recognized. In estimating the fair value of the Company's reporting unit, management must make assumptions and projections regarding such items as future cash flows, future revenues, future earnings, cost of capital, and other factors. The assumptions used in the estimate of fair value are based on historical trends and the projections and assumptions that are used in the latest operating plans. These assumptions reflect management's estimates of future economic and competitive conditions and are, therefore, subject to change as a result of changing market conditions. If these estimates or their related assumptions change in the future, the Company may be required to recognize an impairment loss for the Company's goodwill which could have a material adverse impact on the Company's financial statements.

No impairment of goodwill was recorded in any period.

**Intangible assets.** The Company's intangible assets consist primarily of a trademark and customer relationships obtained through the Company's Dogfish Head acquisition. Customer relationships are amortized over their estimated useful lives and beginning in the fourth quarter of 2024, the Company changed the indefinite useful life Dogfish Head trademark asset and began amortizing the remaining balance over an estimated useful life of 10 years.

As of September 28, 2024, the Dogfish Head trademark was classified as an indefinite-lived intangible asset and was not amortized. In line with accounting guidance, the Company may perform either a qualitative assessment or a quantitative impairment test. The quantitative test compares the trademark's carrying value to its estimated fair value, determined using the relief-from-royalty method. If the fair value is lower, an impairment charge is recorded.

In 2024, as a result of performing this testing, the Dogfish Head trademark asset with a carrying value of $55.6 million was written down to its estimated fair value of $14.4 million. The Coney Island trademark asset with a carrying value of $1.0 million was written down to zero and the Angel City trademark asset with a carrying value of $0.4 million was written down to zero, resulting in a total impairment of $42.6 million which was recorded during the thirteen weeks and thirty-nine weeks ended September 28, 2024.

In the third quarter of 2025, the Company conducted a trigger event analysis on its amortizing intangible assets. The review did not identify any indicators of impairment, and as a result, no impairment charges were recorded.

The Company's intangible assets as of September 27, 2025 and December 28, 2024 were as follows:

---

| | | | | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
|  |  | **As of September 27, 2025** | **As of September 27, 2025** | **As of September 27, 2025** | **As of December 28, 2024** | **As of December 28, 2024** | **As of December 28, 2024** |
|  |  |  | **Accumulated** | **Net Book** | **Gross<br>Carrying** | **Accumulated** | **Net Book** |
|  | **Life (Years)** | **Value** | **Amortization** | **Value** | **Value** | **Amortization** | **Value** |
|  |  |  |  | **(in thousands)** |  |  | **(in thousands)** |
| Customer relationships | 15 | $3800 | $(1584) | $2216 | $3800 | $(1394) | $2406 |
| Trademarks | 10 | 14400 | (1440) | 12960 | 14400 | (360) | 14040 |
| Total intangible assets, net |  | $18200 | $(3024) | $15176 | $18200 | $(1754) | $16446 |

Amortization expense in the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended September 27, 2025 was approximately $0.4 million and $1.2 million. The Company expects to record future amortization expense as follows:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **Fiscal Year** | **Amount (in thousands)** |
| 2025 | 423 |
| 2026 | 1693 |

| 2028 | 1693 |
| 2029 | 1693 |
| 2030 | 1693 |
| Thereafter | 6288 |
| Total amortization expense | $15176 |

**F. Third-Party Production Payments**

During the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended September 27, 2025, the Company produced approximately 90% and 83%, respectively, of its domestic volume at Company-owned production facilities. During the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended September 28, 2024, the Company produced approximately 66% and 71%, respectively, of its domestic volume at Company-owned production facilities. In the normal course of its business, the Company has historically entered into various production arrangements with other beverage companies. Pursuant to these arrangements, the Company generally supplies raw materials and packaging to those companies and incurs conversion fees for labor at the time the liquid is produced and packaged.

The Company currently has production services agreements with subsidiaries of City Brewing Company, LLC ("City Brewing"). In August 2025, the Company extended the terms and amended certain fees under these agreements. The contracts now expire on December 31, 2028 and the Company retains the contractual right to extend these agreements annually through December 31, 2035. These City Brewing agreements include a minimum capacity availability commitment by City Brewing and the Company is obligated to meet annual minimum volume commitments and is subject to contractual shortfall fees, if these annual minimum volume commitments are not met.

During the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended September 27, 2025, City Brewing supplied approximately 10% and 17%, respectively, of the Company's domestic shipment volume. During the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended September 28, 2024, City Brewing supplied approximately 34% and 28%, respectively, of the Company's domestic shipment volume. In accordance with the production services agreement, the Company has made payments to City Brewing which were principally used for capital improvements at City Brewing facilities. These payments are being expensed over the terms of the agreements. During the thirty-nine weeks ended September 27, 2025 and September 28, 2024, third-party production prepayment expense was $7.1 million and $16.4 million, respectively. The remaining net book value of these third-party production prepayments is $8.4 million as of September 27, 2025, which is expected to be expensed to cost of goods sold ratably through December 31, 2028.

In January of 2024, the Company and City Brewing entered into a Loan and Security agreement at which time payment of $20 million was made by the Company to City Brewing. Repayment of the note receivable plus an agreed investment return for a combined total of $22.4 million shall be repaid to the Company subject to annual repayment limits. As of September 27, 2025, the balance of the note receivable was $11.0 million and the final maturity date is December 31, 2028.

In December of 2024, the Company announced an amendment and restatement in its entirety of an existing production agreement with a third-party supplier, Rauch North America Inc ("Rauch"). This amendment adjusted the existing production agreement to better match the Company's future capacity requirements and resulted in increased production flexibility and more favorable termination rights to the Company in exchange for a $26 million cash payment to Rauch which was paid on December 23, 2024. As a result of the payment, the Company recorded a pre-tax contract settlement expense of $26 million in the fourth quarter of 2024.

The amended and restated Rauch agreement includes quarterly minimum payments that total $4.1 million annually at zero volume and a termination fee of $5 million with 12 months written notice. The initial term of the agreement expires on December 31, 2031 with provisions to extend.

------

[<u>Table of Content</u>](#table_contents)

At current production volume projections, the Company believes that it will fall short of its future annual volume commitments under the City Brewing and Rauch agreements and will incur shortfall fees. The Company expenses the shortfall fees during the contractual period when such fees are incurred as a component of cost of goods sold. During the thirteen weeks and thirty-nine weeks ended September 27, 2025, the Company incurred $1.0 million and $7.5 million, respectively, in shortfall fees. During the thirteen weeks and thirty-nine weeks ended September 28, 2024, the Company incurred $0.6 million and $4.7 million, respectively, in shortfall fees. At current volume projections, the Company anticipates that it will recognize approximately $31 million of shortfall fees in the future with $14 million forecasted to be expensed in the remainder of 2025 and $17 million expected to be expensed in future years thereafter, primarily in 2026.

As of September 27, 2025, if volume for the remaining term of the production arrangements was zero, the total contractual shortfall fees, with advance notice as specified in the related contractual agreements, would total approximately $40 million with $19 million due in the remainder of 2025 and $21 million due in future years thereafter.

The Company has regular discussions with its third-party production suppliers related to its future capacity needs and the terms of its contracts. Changes to volume estimates, future amendments or cancellations of existing contracts could accelerate or change total shortfall fees expected to be incurred.

G. Note Receivable

The Company and City Brewing entered into a Loan and Security agreement on January 2, 2024 at which time payment of $20 million was made by the Company to City Brewing. Repayment of the note receivable plus an agreed investment return for a combined total of $22.4 million shall be credited to the Company through reductions of shortfall fees, subject to annual repayment limits and through other payments or credits, should owed shortfall fees be lower than these annual repayment limits. The annual repayment limits are $7.5 million in 2025 and $10.0 million in 2026 and thereafter. The final maturity date of the loan is December 31, 2028.

The Company determined the fair value of the note receivable on the issuance date to be $18.6 million. The $1.4 million difference between the cash paid to City Brewing of $20.0 million and the fair value of the note of $18.6 million on issuance date has been recorded as a third-party production prepayment asset and will be recognized as a component of cost of goods sold over the term of the third-party production arrangement. The unamortized balance was $0.4 million as of September 27, 2025. Interest income on the note receivable is being recognized over the term of the loan, which is to be repaid in full no later than December 31, 2028.

As of September 27, 2025, the Company had $11.0 million fair value remaining on the note receivable.

H. Net Income per Share

The Company calculates net income per share using the two-class method, which requires the Company to allocate net income to its Class A Common Shares, Class B Common Shares and unvested share-based payment awards that participate in dividends with common stock, in the calculation of net income per share.

The Class A Common Stock has no voting rights, except (1) as required by law, (2) for the election of Class A Directors, and (3) that the approval of the holders of the Class A Common Stock is required for (a) certain future authorizations or issuances of additional securities which have rights senior to Class A Common Stock, (b) certain alterations of rights or terms of the Class A or Class B Common Stock as set forth in the Articles of Organization of the Company, (c) other amendments of the Articles of Organization of the Company, (d) certain mergers or consolidations with, or acquisitions of, other entities, and (e) sales or dispositions of any significant portion of the Company's assets.

The Class B Common Stock has full voting rights, including the right to (1) elect a majority of the members of the Company's Board of Directors and (2) approve all (a) amendments to the Company's Articles of Organization, (b) mergers or consolidations with, or acquisitions of, other entities, (c) sales or dispositions of any significant portion of the Company's assets, and (d) equity-based and other executive compensation and other significant corporate matters. The Company's Class B Common Stock is not listed for trading. Each share of the Class B Common Stock is freely convertible into one share of Class A Common Stock, upon request of the respective Class B holder, and participates equally in dividends.

The Company's unvested share-based payment awards include unvested shares (1) issued under the Company's investment share program, which permits employees who have been with the Company for at least one year to purchase shares of Class A Common Stock and to purchase those shares at a discount ranging from 20% to 40% below market value based on years of employment starting after two years of employment, and (2) awarded as restricted stock units at the discretion of the Company's Board of Directors. The investment shares vest over five years in equal number of shares and the restricted stock units generally vest over four years in equal number of shares. If a dividend is declared, the unvested shares would participate equally. See Note M for a discussion of the current year unvested stock awards and issuances.

------

[<u>Table of Content</u>](#table_contents)

Included in the computation of net income per diluted common share are dilutive outstanding stock options and restricted stock that are vested or expected to vest. At its discretion, the Board of Directors grants stock options and restricted stock units to senior management and certain key employees. The terms of the employee stock options are determined by the Board of Directors at the time of grant. To date, stock options granted to employees vest over various service periods and/or based on the attainment of certain performance criteria and generally expire after ten years. The restricted stock units generally vest over four years in equal number of shares. Each restricted stock unit represents an unfunded and unsecured right to receive one share of Class A Stock upon satisfaction of the vesting criteria. The unvested shares participate equally in dividends, if declared, and are forfeitable. The Company also grants stock options and restricted stock units to its non-employee directors upon election or re-election to the Board of Directors. The number of option shares granted to non-employee directors is calculated based on a defined formula and these stock options vest immediately upon grant and expire after ten years. The restricted stock units granted to non-employee directors vest immediately upon grant.

*Net Income per Common Share - Basic*

The following table sets forth the computation of basic net income per share using the two-class method:

**I. Commitments and Contingencies**

*Contractual Obligations*

As of September 27, 2025, projected cash outflows under non-cancellable contractual obligations are as follows:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
|  | **Commitments** |
|  | **(in thousands)** |
| Brand support | $77261 |
| Ingredients and packaging (excluding hops and malt) | 37776 |
| Hops and malt | 36407 |
| Equipment and machinery | 36162 |
| Other | 28702 |
| Total commitments | $216308 |

---

The Company expects to pay $105.6 million of these obligations in the remainder of fiscal 2025, $47.3 million in fiscal 2026, $18.5 million in fiscal 2027, and $44.9 million in fiscal 2028 and thereafter. The commitment amounts exclude any impact related to the tariff programs announcement by the U.S. government to date.

*Litigation*

The Company is party to legal proceedings and claims, where significant damages are asserted against it. Given the inherent uncertainty of litigation, it is possible that the Company could incur liabilities as a consequence of these claims, which may or may not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition or the results of its operations. The Company accrues loss contingencies if, in the opinion of management and its legal counsel, the risk of loss is probable and able to be estimated. Material pending legal proceedings are discussed below.

**Supplier Dispute.** On December 31, 2022, Ardagh Metal Packaging USA Corp. ("Ardagh") filed an action against the Company alleging, among other things, that the Company had failed or would fail to purchase contractual minimum volumes of certain aluminum beverage can containers in 2021 to 2026. The Company filed an Amended Answer, Amended Affirmative Defenses and Amended Counterclaims on March 25, 2024. On November 9, 2023, Ardagh filed a Notice of Plaintiff's Motion for Judgment on the Pleadings on Count II of the Complaint, to which the Company filed an Opposition on November 22, 2023. On February 26, 2024, the Court granted the Motion. On March 27, 2024, the Company filed a Motion to Clarify and to Reconsider the Court's decision. Following briefing by the parties, on June 17, 2024, the Court granted the Company's Motion to Reconsider, denied Ardagh's Motion for Judgment on the Pleadings, and vacated its February 26, 2024 Order. The Court set a fact discovery deadline of November 25, 2024. The Court also set an expert discovery deadline of May 30, 2025. Ardagh has filed a Motion for Partial Summary Judgment on certain liability issues. The Company also has filed a Motion for Partial Summary judgment on certain liability and damage issues. The Court has not set a date for expert motion filings or trial. The Company denies that it breached the terms of the parties' contract and intends to defend against the Ardagh claims vigorously. The possible outcome of this litigation could range from zero to the level of Ardagh's initial demand of over/approximately $300 million plus interest if applied.

**J. Income Taxes**

The following table provides a summary of the income tax provision for the thirteen weeks and thirty-nine weeks ended September 27, 2025 and September 28, 2024:

---

| | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **Thirteen weeks ended** | **Thirteen weeks ended** | **Thirty-nine weeks ended** | **Thirty-nine weeks ended** |
|  | **September 27, 2025** | **September 28, 2024** | **September 27, 2025** | **September 28, 2024** |
| Effective tax rate | 28.1% | 31.7% | 28.8% | 30.3% |

---

The decrease in the tax rate for the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended September 27, 2025 as compared to the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended September 28, 2024 is primarily due to a change in the impact of non-deductible stock compensation expense.

As of both September 27, 2025 and December 28, 2024, the Company had approximately $0.5 million of unrecognized income tax benefits.

The Company's practice is to classify interest and penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense. As of September 27, 2025 and December 28, 2024, the Company had approximately $0.1 million accrued for interest and penalties recorded in other liabilities.

The Company's federal income tax returns remain subject to examination for three years. The Company's state income tax returns remain subject to examination for three or four years depending on the state's statute of limitations. The Company is not currently under any income tax audits as of September 27, 2025.

On July 4, 2025, President Trump signed into law the legislation commonly referred to as the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (the "Act"). Key provisions of the Act relevant to the Company include, but are not limited to, the permanent extension of 100% bonus depreciation for qualifying assets and the elimination of the requirement to capitalize and amortize U.S.-based research and experimental expenditures, allowing for immediate expensing.

The Company has completed an initial assessment of the Act's impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements and has recorded the resulting effects in the period ended September 27, 2025. Specifically, the impact has been reflected in the Company's deferred income tax balances, primarily through adjustments to deferred tax liabilities and income taxes payable. The Company does not expect a material change in its annual effective tax rate as a result of the Act.

The Company will continue to monitor developments related to the Act, including any future clarifications or guidance issued by the U.S. Department of the Treasury or the Internal Revenue Service.

**K. Line of Credit**

In December 2022, the Company amended its credit facility in place that provides for a $150.0 million revolving line of credit to extend the maturity date to December 16, 2027. Under the terms of the amended agreement, the Company may elect an interest rate for borrowings under the credit facility based on the applicable secured overnight financing rate ("SOFR") plus 1.1%. As of September 27, 2025, no borrowings were outstanding. As of September 27, 2025 and December 28, 2024, the Company was not in violation of any of its financial covenants to the lender under the credit facility and the unused balance of $150.0 million on the line of credit was available to the Company for future borrowings.

[<u>Table of Content</u>](#table_contents)

**L. Fair Value Measures**

The Company defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or be paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The Company applies the following fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value into three levels and bases the categorization within the hierarchy upon the lowest level of input that is available and significant to the fair value measurement. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Level 1 — Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Level 2 — Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. If the asset or liability has a specified (contractual) term, a Level 2 input must be observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Level 3 — Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability in which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date.

The Company's cash and cash equivalents are held in money market funds. These money market funds are measured at fair value on a recurring basis (at least annually) and are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy because they are valued using quoted market prices. The money market funds are invested substantially in United States Treasury and government securities. Cash, accounts receivable, and accounts payable are carried at their cost, which approximates fair value, because of their short-term nature.

As of September 27, 2025 and December 28, 2024, the Company had money market funds with a "Triple A" rated money market fund. The Company considers this fund to carry low credit risk and to be highly likely to meet its financial obligations. As of September 27, 2025 and December 28, 2024, the Company's cash and cash equivalents balance was $250.5 million and $211.8 million, respectively, including money market funds amounting to $241.2 million and $203.1 million, respectively.

*Non-Recurring Fair Value Measurement*

The fair value as of the issuance date of the Company's note receivable is classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy as the fair value was partially derived from publicly quoted inputs of market interest rates for a loan of similar terms, provisions, and maturity. See Note G for further discussion on the note receivable.

This expense will be recognized over the remaining service period.

Weighted average assumptions used to estimate fair values of stock options on the date of grants are as follows:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
|  | **2025** |
| Expected volatility | 40.5% |
| Risk-free interest rate | 4.3% |
| Expected dividends | 0% |

**N. Segment Reporting** 

Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate discrete information is available for evaluation by the chief operating decision maker, or decision making group, in deciding how to allocate resources in assessing performance. The Company has one operating segment and one reportable segment that produces and sells alcohol beverages under various brands. All brands are predominantly beverages that are manufactured using similar production processes, have comparable alcohol content, generally fall under the same regulatory environment, and are sold to the same types of customers in similar size quantities at similar price points, with similar profit margins, and through the same channels of distribution. The Company's chief operating decision maker ("CODM") is the Chief Executive Officer.

The accounting policies of the segment are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. The CODM assesses performance for the segment based on net income, which is reported on the income statement as consolidated net income. The measure of segment assets is reported on the balance sheet as total consolidated assets.

The table below summarizes the Company's measures of segment net income that the CODM considered in determining how to allocate resources and assess segment performance for the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended September 27, 2025, and September 28, 2024

**Net revenue.** Net revenue decreased by $68.0 million, or 11.2%, to $537.5 million for the thirteen weeks ended September 27, 2025, as compared to $605.5 million for the thirteen weeks ended September 28, 2024 primarily due to decreased sales volume impacts of $82.9 million, partially offset by increased pricing of $6.3 million, and favorable product mix of $6.1 million.

*Volume.* Total shipment volume decreased by 13.7% to 1,936,000 barrels for the thirteen weeks ended September 27, 2025, as compared to 2,243,000 barrels for the thirteen weeks ended September 28, 2024, primarily due to declines in Twisted Tea, Truly Hard Seltzer and Samuel Adams brands that were only partially offset by growth in the Company's Sun Cruiser and Angry Orchard brands.

The Company believes distributor inventory as of September 27, 2025 were at appropriate levels and averaged approximately four and one half weeks on hand which is within our target wholesaler inventory levels of four to five weeks. At the end of September 2024, wholesaler inventory levels were slightly above our target at five and one half weeks.

*Net revenue per barrel.* Net revenue per barrel increased by 2.8% to $277.63 per barrel for the thirteen weeks ended September 27, 2025, as compared to $269.94 per barrel for the comparable period in 2024, primarily due to increased pricing and favorable product mix.

**Cost of goods sold.** Cost of goods sold was $136.56 per barrel for the thirteen weeks ended September 27, 2025, as compared to $145.00 per barrel for the thirteen weeks ended September 28, 2024. The 2025 decrease in cost of goods sold of $8.44, or 5.8% per barrel was primarily due to contract renegotiations and recipe optimization savings of $11.3 million, or $5.84 per barrel, decreases in inventory obsolescence of $7.6 million, or $3.93 per barrel, lower third-party production costs of $6.8 million, or $3.51 per barrel, and improved brewery efficiencies of $3.0 million, or $1.55 per barrel, partially offset by inflationary impacts, including tariffs, of $12.0 million, or $6.20 per barrel.

Inflationary impacts of $12.0 million consist primarily of increased raw material costs of $10.4 million, inclusive of $3.5 million impact from tariffs, and increased internal brewery costs of $1.6 million.

**Gross profit.** Gross profit was $141.07 per barrel for the thirteen weeks ended September 27, 2025, as compared to $124.94 per barrel for the thirteen weeks ended September 28, 2024.

The Company includes freight charges related to the movement of finished goods from its manufacturing locations to distributor locations in its advertising, promotional and selling expense line item. As such, the Company's gross margins may not be comparable to those of other entities that classify costs related to distribution differently.

**Advertising, promotional, and selling expenses.** Advertising, promotional and selling expenses increased by $16.8 million, or 11.3%, to $164.7 million for the thirteen weeks ended September 27, 2025, as compared to $148.0 million for the thirteen weeks ended September 28, 2024, primarily due to increased brand media and local marketing investments of $20.9 million partially offset by lower freight costs of $4.1 million due to lower volumes.

Advertising, promotional and selling expenses were 30.6% of net revenue, or $85.09 per barrel, for the thirteen weeks ended September 27, 2025, as compared to 24.4% of net revenue, or $65.98 per barrel, for the thirteen weeks ended September 28, 2024. This increase per barrel is primarily due to lower shipment volume and increased brand media and local marketing investments. The Company invests in advertising and promotional campaigns that it believes will be effective, but there is no guarantee that such investments will generate sales growth.

The Company conducts certain advertising and promotional activities in its distributors' markets, and the distributors make contributions to the Company for such efforts. These amounts are included in the Company's condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive operations as reductions to advertising, promotional and selling expenses. Historically, contributions from distributors for advertising and promotional activities have amounted to between 2% and 3% of net sales. The Company may adjust its promotional efforts in the distributors' markets, if changes occur in these promotional contribution arrangements, depending on industry and market conditions.

**General and administrative expenses.** General and administrative expenses increased by $1.1 million, or 2.5%, to $44.9 million for the thirteen weeks ended September 27, 2025, as compared to $43.8 million for the thirteen weeks ended September 28, 2024, primarily due to higher salaries and benefits costs.

**Impairment of intangible assets.** Impairment of intangible assets in the comparable period of 2024 reflected a $42.6 million non-cash impairment charge or $29.1 million net of tax impact, recorded primarily for the Dogfish Head brand, taken as a result of the Company's annual impairment analysis as of September 1, 2024. Beginning in the fourth quarter of 2024 the Company began amortizing the remaining intangible asset over a 10 year life and does not expect any future impairments related to the Dogfish Head brand.

**Impairment of brewery assets.** Impairment of brewery assets of $1.4 million increased by $1.4 million from the comparable period of 2024, due to higher write-offs of equipment at Company-owned production facilities.

**Income tax provision.** The Company's effective tax rate of 28.1% decreased from 31.7% in the prior year due primarily to lower non-deductible stock compensation.

*Volume.* Total shipment volume decreased by 3.7% to 5,776,000 barrels for the thirty-nine weeks ended September 27, 2025, as compared to 5,997,000 barrels for the thirty-nine weeks ended September 28, 2024, primarily due to declines in Twisted Tea and Truly Hard Seltzer brands that were only partially offset by growth in the Company's Sun Cruiser brand.

*Net revenue per barrel.* Net revenue per barrel increased by 1.8% to $273.43 per barrel for the thirty-nine weeks ended September 27, 2025, as compared to $268.57 per barrel for the comparable period in 2024, primarily due to pricing and favorable product mix.

**Cost of goods sold.** Cost of goods sold was $137.54 per barrel for the thirty-nine weeks ended September 27, 2025, as compared to $146.34 per barrel for the thirty-nine weeks ended September 28, 2024. The 2025 decrease in cost of goods sold of $8.80, or 6.0% per barrel was primarily due to contract renegotiations and recipe optimization savings of $31.7 million, or $5.51 per barrel, improved brewery efficiencies of $26.8 million, or $4.66 per barrel, lower third-party production costs of $10.8 million, or $1.88 per barrel, and decreases in inventory obsolescence of $6.3 million, or $1.09 per barrel, partially offset by inflationary impacts, including tariffs, of $26.6 million, or $4.62 per barrel.

28, 2024, primarily due to increased brand media and local marketing investments of $53.0 million partially offset by lower freight costs of $3.5 million due to lower volumes.

Advertising, promotional and selling expenses were 29.3% of net revenue, or $79.98 per barrel, for the thirty-nine weeks ended September 27, 2025, as compared to 25.6% of net revenue, or $68.78 per barrel, for the thirty-nine weeks ended September 28, 2024. This increase per barrel is primarily due to lower shipment volume and increased brand media and local marketing investments. The Company invests in advertising and promotional campaigns that it believes will be effective, but there is no guarantee that such investments will generate sales growth.

**General and administrative expenses.** General and administrative expenses decreased by $3.6 million, or 2.5%, to $138.6 million for the thirty-nine weeks ended September 27, 2025, as compared to $142.2 million for the thirty-nine weeks ended September 28, 2024, primarily due to lower salaries and benefits costs.

**Impairment of intangible assets.** Impairment of intangible assets in the comparable period of 2024 reflected a $42.6 million non-cash impairment charge or $29.1 million net of tax impact, recorded primarily for the Dogfish Head brand, taken as a result of the Company's annual impairment analysis as of September 1, 2024. Beginning in the fourth quarter of 2024 the Company began amortizing the remaining intangible asset over a 10 year life and does not expect any future impairments related to the Dogfish Head brand.

**Impairment of brewery assets.** Impairment of brewery assets of $6.4 million increased by $2.7 million from the comparable period of 2024, due to higher write-offs of equipment at third party and Company-owned production facilities.

**Income tax provision.** The Company's effective tax rate of 28.8% decreased from 30.3% in the prior year due primarily to lower non-deductible stock compensation.

**LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES**

The Company's primary sources of liquidity are its existing cash balances, cash flows from operating activities and amounts available under its revolving credit facility. The Company's material cash requirements include working capital needs, satisfaction of contractual commitments, stock repurchases, and investment in the Company's business through capital expenditures.

Cash and cash equivalents increased to $250.5 million as of September 27, 2025 from $211.8 million as of December 28, 2024, primarily reflecting cash provided by operating activities, partially offset by the repurchases of the Company's Class A common stock, and purchases of property, plant, and equipment.

Cash provided by operating activities consists of net income, adjusted for certain non-cash items, such as depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation expense, and other non-cash items included in operating results, and changes in operating assets and liabilities, such as accounts receivable, inventory, accounts payable, and accrued expenses.

Cash provided by operating activities for the thirty-nine weeks ended September 27, 2025 was comprised of net income of $131.0 million and non-cash items of $67.3 million, and net inflows from operating assets and liabilities of $31.9 million. Cash provided by operating activities for the thirty-nine weeks ended September 28, 2024 was comprised of net income of $98.5 million and non-cash items of $118.4 million, partially offset by net outflows from operating assets and liabilities of $9.9 million. The increase in cash provided by operating activities for the thirty-nine weeks ended September 27, 2025 compared to September 28, 2024 is primarily driven by lower inventory levels, reflecting improved supply chain performance and reduced shipment volumes, and lower accounts receivable balances due to decreased shipment volume.

The Company used $36.7 million in investing activities during the thirty-nine weeks ended September 27, 2025, as compared to $72.7 million during the thirty-nine weeks ended September 28, 2024. The decrease in investing activity cash outflows is due to a $20.0 million note receivable issued in the prior year and lower capital investments. For both periods, capital investments were made mostly for the Company's production facilities to drive efficiencies and cost reductions and support product innovation and future growth.

Cash used in financing activities was $154.9 million during the thirty-nine weeks ended September 27, 2025, as compared to $177.1 million during the thirty-nine weeks ended September 28, 2024. The financing activity cash outflows in 2025 and 2024 are comprised mostly of the repurchases of the Company's Class A common stock in the periods.

During the period from December 29, 2024 through October 17, 2025, the Company repurchased and subsequently retired 709,491 shares of its Class A Common Stock for an aggregate purchase price of $161.3 million. As of October 17, 2025, the Company had repurchased a cumulative total of approximately 15.6 million shares of its Class A Common Stock for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $1.33 billion and had approximately $266 million remaining on the $1.6 billion stock repurchase expenditure limit set by the Board of Directors.

The Company expects that its cash and cash equivalents balance as of September 27, 2025 of $250.5 million, along with its projected future operating cash flow and its unused line of credit balance of $150.0 million, will be sufficient to fund future cash requirements. The Company's $150.0 million credit facility has a term not scheduled to expire until December 16, 2027. As of the date of this filing, the Company was in compliance with its covenants to the lender under the credit facility.

**CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES**

There were no material changes to the Company's critical accounting policies during the thirteen weeks and thirty-nine weeks ended September 27, 2025.

**MARKET CONDITIONS AND TRENDS**

Based on the information currently available and tariff programs announced by the U.S. government as of October 17, 2025, the Company estimates tariffs will have an unfavorable cost impact for the full year 2025 of approximately $9 to $13 million or $0.60 to $0.80 earnings per diluted share. These estimates include an unfavorable gross margin impact of between 40 to 60 basis points.

During the thirteen weeks ended September 27, 2025, the Company incurred $4.1 million in tariff costs, of which $3.9 million impacted gross margin. During the thirty-nine weeks ended September 27, 2025, the Company incurred $7.1 million in tariff costs, of which $6.5 million impacted gross margin.

**Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK**

Since December 28, 2024, there have been no significant changes in the Company's exposures to interest rate or foreign currency rate fluctuations. The Company currently does not enter into derivatives or other market risk sensitive instruments for the purpose of hedging or for trading purposes.

**Item 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES**

As of September 27, 2025, the Company conducted an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's management, including the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer (its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, respectively) regarding the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"). Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) were effective as of September 27, 2025 to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the requisite time periods and that such disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to its management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

There were no changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the thirteen weeks ended September 27, 2025 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

**PART II. OTHER INFORMATION**

**Item 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS**

For information regarding the Company's legal proceedings, refer to Note I of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

**Item 1A. RISK FACTORS**

In addition to the other information set forth in this report, careful consideration should be given to the factors discussed in Part I, "Item 1A. Risk Factors" in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 28, 2024, which could materially affect the Company's business, financial condition or future results. The risks described in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K are not the only risks facing the Company. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to the Company or that it currently deems to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect its business, financial condition and/or operating results. There has been no material change in the risk factors described in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 28, 2024, with the exception of the addition of the following risk factor:

***The Company may be adversely impacted by recently announced tariff programs*** 

The Company sources some of its goods and services from countries impacted from the tariff programs announced by the U.S. government and expects these tariffs to have an adverse effect on the Company's business and financial results during the 2025 fiscal year and possibly beyond. The Company has reviewed its supply chain and business and based on information currently available, the Company believes the primary impact of these tariffs will be higher costs of ingredients, packaging, promotional materials and capital equipment which are currently sourced from Canada, European Union, China, and Mexico. The Company has estimated the higher costs due to tariffs and the impact to its statement of operations in the 2025 fiscal year will be between $9 million and $13 million. These estimates could materially change and the Company will closely monitor the tariff environment and continue to evaluate and explore opportunities to mitigate these negative impacts but there is no guarantee that these efforts will be effective.

In addition, 5% of the Company's revenue is from countries outside the United States with the majority of this revenue in Canada. The Company currently produces most of its Canadian volume in Canada and currently estimates that its supply chain in Canada is not expected to experience significantly higher costs due to the recently announced tariff programs.

The Company's U.S. and international businesses could also be negatively impacted if tariffs result in changes in consumer demand or cause currency related impacts. The Company's estimate of the impact of tariff costs does not reflect any potential impacts of tariffs on consumer demand or currency related impacts.
