BOSTON BEER REPORTS

THIRD QUARTER 2022 FINANCIAL RESULTS

 

BOSTON – October 20, 2022 – The Boston Beer Company, Inc. (NYSE: SAM), today reported financial results for the third quarter 2022 (13 weeks) and year to date 2022 (39 weeks) ended September 24, 2022.

 

Third Quarter 2022 Summary:

Depletions decreased 6% and shipments increased 1.4% compared to the third quarter of 2021
Net revenue of $596.5 million increased 6.2% compared to net revenue realized in the third quarter of 2021
Gross margin of 43.2%
Net income of $27.3 million, which includes a non-cash impairment charge of $27.1 million and the related tax benefit
GAAP diluted earnings per share of $2.21, including a non-cash impairment charge of $1.61 per share

 

“I continue to be optimistic about the long-term growth outlook for Boston Beer’s diversified beverage portfolio,” said Chairman and Founder Jim Koch. “Based on our year-to-date performance and our view on the remainder of the year, we have narrowed the range of our fiscal 2022 financial guidance. As we continue to navigate through this dynamic operating environment, we remain committed to investing in innovation and brand support across our Beyond Beer portfolio. We operate in attractive segments and believe our strong capabilities – combined with the top salesforce in beer – position us well to deliver long-term value.”

 

“We delivered revenue, shipment and cash flow growth in the third quarter, with strong pricing performance across our portfolio, continued growth in depletions and shipments in Twisted Tea, and positive early progress in Hard Mountain Dew,” said President and CEO Dave Burwick. “We launched Truly Vodka Seltzer earlier this month and we are continuing to execute on our plans to support the base Truly business. We remain focused on delivering our strategy to create a broad beverage portfolio with many pathways to growth while optimizing our supply chain to expand margins over the long term.”

 

Details of the results were as follows:

 

Third Quarter 2022 (13 weeks ended September 24, 2022) Summary of Results

 

Comparisons between the third quarter of 2022 and the third quarter of 2021 are benefitted by $133.0 million, before the related tax benefit, in direct and indirect costs recorded in the third quarter of 2021, resulting from the 2021 slowdown in hard seltzer category growth. Those costs included inventory obsolescence, destruction costs and other inventory related costs of $54.3 million, contract termination costs, primarily for excess third-party contract production, of $35.4 million, equipment impairments of $12.7 million, increased materials

 


 

sourcing and warehousing costs of $11.8 million, unfavorable absorption impacts at Company-owned breweries and downtime charges at third party breweries of $11.4 million, customer return provisions for out of code or damaged products of $5.4 million and other costs of $2.0 million. The total direct and indirect costs of $133.0 million were recorded in the third quarter 2021 financial statements as a $6.9 million reduction in net revenue, $78.0 million increase in cost of goods sold, $35.4 million in contract termination fees, and $12.7 million in impairments of brewery assets.

 

Third quarter 2022 net income of $27.3 million, or $2.21 per diluted share, increased from the third quarter 2021 net loss of $58.4 million, or a loss of $4.76 per diluted share. This increase of $85.7 million, or $6.97 per diluted share, was due to favorable impacts of the comparison against third quarter 2021 combined direct and indirect costs related to slowing hard seltzer category growth noted above, as well as increased net revenue and lower advertising, promotional and selling expenses in the third quarter of 2022, which were partially offset by increased income taxes, a non-cash impairment charge relating to the Dogfish Head brand, as discussed below, and increased supply chain costs.

 

Depletions for the third quarter decreased 6% from the prior year, reflecting decreases in the Company’s Truly Hard Seltzer, Angry Orchard, Samuel Adams, and Dogfish Head brands, partially offset by increases in its Twisted Tea and Hard Mountain Dew brands.

 

Excluding the Truly declines, the Company’s depletion volumes for the remainder of its business in the third quarter increased 14%.

 

Shipment volume for the third quarter was approximately 2.3 million barrels, a 1.4% increase from the prior year, reflecting increases in the Company’s Twisted Tea, Hard Mountain Dew and Samuel Adams brands partially offset by decreases in its Truly Hard Seltzer, Angry Orchard and Dogfish Head brands.

 

The Company believes distributor inventory as of September 24, 2022 averaged approximately five weeks on hand and was at an appropriate level for each of its brands. The Company expects distributors will keep inventory levels for the remainder of the year between four to five weeks on hand.

 

Gross margin of 43.2% increased from the 30.7% margin realized in the third quarter of 2021, primarily due to costs recorded in the third quarter of 2021 resulting from the slowdown of hard seltzer and in the current quarter from increased pricing, which was partially offset by inflationary cost increases, primarily due to increased packaging, ingredient, and energy costs as well as higher inventory obsolescence costs and returns.

 

Advertising, promotional and selling expenses decreased $13.1 million, or 7.9%, from the third quarter of 2021, primarily due to a net decrease in brand investments of $9.5 million, mainly driven by lower media costs and decreased freight to distributors of $3.6 million primarily due to lower freight rates.

 

General and administrative expenses increased by $5.3 million, or 16.6%, from the third quarter of 2021, primarily due to increased salaries and benefits costs.

 

Impairment of intangible assets reflects a $27.1 million non-cash impairment charge recorded for the Dogfish Head brand, taken as a result of the Company’s annual impairment analysis as of September 1, 2022. The impairment determination was primarily based on the latest forecasts of brand performance which has been below our projections made on the acquisition date.

 


 

 

Impairment of brewery assets decreased $13.0 million from the third quarter of 2021, primarily due to write-downs of equipment of $12.7 million in the prior year quarter.

 

Contract termination costs decreased $35.4 million from the third quarter of 2021, due to contract termination costs in the prior year quarter related to the 2021 slowdown of the hard seltzer category.

 

The Company’s effective tax rate for the third quarter was 28.6% compared to a tax benefit of 23.6% in the third quarter of 2021. In both the third quarter of 2022 and 2021, the Company recorded a tax benefit of $0.02 per diluted share resulting from stock activity recorded under Accounting Standard "Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting" ("ASU 2016-09").

 

Year-to-date 2022 (39 weeks ended September 24, 2022) Summary of Results

 

Comparisons between year-to-date 2022 and year-to-date 2021 are impacted by $143.9 million, before the related tax benefit, in direct and indirect costs recorded in year-to-date 2021 resulting from the 2021 slowdown in hard seltzer category growth. Those costs included inventory obsolescence, destruction costs and other inventory related costs of $54.3 million, contract termination costs, primarily for excess third-party contract production, of $35.4 million, increased materials sourcing and warehousing costs of $22.3 million, equipment impairments of $12.7 million, unfavorable absorption impacts at Company-owned breweries and downtime charges at third party breweries of $11.8 million, customer return provisions for out of code or damaged products of $5.4 million and other costs of $2.0 million. The total direct and indirect costs of $143.9 million were recorded in year-to-date 2021 financial statements as a $6.9 million reduction in net revenue, $88.9 million increase in cost of goods sold, $35.4 million in contract termination fees, and $12.7 million in impairments of brewery assets.

 

Year-to-date 2022 net income of $78.7 million, or $6.36 per diluted share, increased from net income of $66.3 million or $5.33 per diluted share in year-to-date 2021. This increase of $12.4 million, or $1.03 per diluted share, was due to comparisons against the 2021 combined direct and indirect costs related to the 2021 slowdown of hard seltzer category growth and also reflects lower advertising, promotional and selling expenses in the current year, partially offset by lower revenue, a non-cash impairment charge recognized in the third quarter relating to the Dogfish Head brand, increased supply chain costs and increased income taxes.

 

Net revenue year-to-date of $1.643 billion decreased 3.9% compared to year-to-date 2021.

 

Depletions year-to-date decreased 7% from year-to-date 2021, reflecting decreases in the Company’s Truly Hard Seltzer, Angry Orchard, Dogfish Head, and Samuel Adams brands, partially offset by increases in its Twisted Tea and Hard Mountain Dew brands.

 

Shipment volume year-to-date was approximately 6.5 million barrels, an 8.0% decrease from year-to-date 2021, reflecting decreases in the Company’s Truly Hard Seltzer, Angry Orchard, Dogfish Head, and Samuel Adams brands, partially offset by increases in its Twisted Tea and Hard Mountain Dew brands.

 

Gross margin of 42.4% increased from the 40.8% margin realized year-to-date 2021, primarily due to costs recorded in year-to-date 2021 resulting from the slowdown of hard seltzer and year-to-date 2022 increased pricing, which was partially offset by inflationary cost increases, primarily due to increased packaging,

 


 

ingredient, and energy costs as well as higher inventory obsolescence costs, unfavorable product mix and higher returns.

 

Advertising, promotional and selling expenses year-to-date decreased $30.1 million, or 6.4%, from year-to-date 2021, primarily due to a net decrease in brand investments of $30.1 million, mainly driven by lower media costs. Freight to distributors was flat as higher rates were offset by lower volumes.

 

General and administrative expenses year-to-date increased by $19.0 million or 19.5% from year-to-date 2021, primarily due to increased salaries and benefits costs.

 

The Company’s effective tax rate for year-to-date 2021 was 26.3% compared to 17.3% in year-to-date 2021. This increase was due to a lower stock activity that resulted in a lower tax benefit from employee stock exercises recognized under ASU 2016-09. Year-to-date 2022 and 2021, the Company recorded a tax benefit of $0.03 per diluted share and $0.75 per diluted share, respectively, resulting from ASU 2016-09.

 

The Company expects that its September 24, 2022 cash balance of $222.1 million, together with its future operating cash flows and the unused balance on its $150.0 million line of credit, will be sufficient to fund future cash requirements.

 

During the 39-week period ended September 24, 2022 and the period from September 25, 2022 through October 15, 2022, the Company did not repurchase any shares of its Class A Common Stock. As of October 15, 2022, the Company had approximately $90.3 million remaining on the $931.0 million share buyback expenditure limit set by the Board of Directors.

 

Depletion and shipments estimates

 

Year-to-date depletions through the 42-week period ended October 15, 2022 are estimated by the Company to have decreased approximately 6% from the comparable period in 2021.

 

Year-to-date shipments through the 42-week period ended October 15, 2022 are estimated by the Company to have decreased approximately 6% from the comparable period in 2021.

 

Full-year 2022 Financial Projections

 

Based on year-to-date performance and latest projections for the final quarter of 2022, the Company has narrowed the range of its full year 2022 projections. The Company’s actual 2022 results could vary significantly from the current projection and are highly sensitive to changes in volume projections particularly related to the

 


 

hard seltzer category and supply chain performance as well as inflationary impacts. The 2022 fiscal year includes 53 weeks compared to the 2021 fiscal year which included only 52 weeks.

The non-GAAP earnings per share (Non-GAAP EPS) projection excludes the impact of the non-cash Dogfish Head brand value impairment of $27.1 million or $1.61 per diluted share.

 

Underlying the Company’s current 2022 projection are the following full-year estimates and targets:

 

The Company estimates the 53rd week will have a positive impact of between 1 and 1.5 percentage points on its depletions and shipments growth rates for the full year and between 4 and 6 percentage points on its depletions and shipments growth rates for the fourth quarter.
Changes in gross margin projection are due to the impact of higher inventory obsolescence and lower brewery efficiency as we slowly ramp up new variety pack automation equipment. The Company continues to expect to cover higher commodity costs through pricing.
Advertising, selling and promotional expense projection does not include any changes in freight costs for the shipment of products to the Company’s distributors.

 

2023 Financial Guidance

 

The Company is planning to provide full year 2023 financial guidance during its fourth quarter earnings call in February 2023. The Fiscal 2023 fiscal year will include 52 weeks compared to the 2022 fiscal year which includes 53 weeks.

 

Use of Non-GAAP Measures

 

Non-GAAP EPS is not a defined term under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Non-GAAP EPS, or Non-GAAP earnings per diluted share, excludes from projected GAAP EPS the impact of the non-cash asset impairment charge of $27.1 million, or $1.61 per diluted share, recognized in the third quarter of fiscal 2022 relating to the Dogfish Head brand. This non-GAAP measure should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for diluted earnings per share prepared in accordance with GAAP, and may not be comparable to calculations of similarly titled measures by other companies. Management uses this non-GAAP financial measure to make operating and strategic decisions and to evaluate the Company’s underlying business performance. Management believes this forward-looking non-GAAP measure provides meaningful and useful

 


 

information to investors and analysts regarding the Company’s outlook for its ongoing financial and business performance or trends and facilitates period to period comparisons of its forecasted financial performance.
