Hilton H. Schlosberg, Vice Chairman and Co-Chief Executive Officer, said, “The energy drink category continues to grow globally and has demonstrated resilience. In the United States, the energy drink category continued to experience slower growth rates. However, in all measured channels excluding convenience, the energy drink category is growing at a faster rate. In the United States, the energy drink category in the convenience channel is beginning to show some improvement in October. A number of other consumer packaged goods companies have also seen a tighter consumer spending environment for certain income groups and weaker demand in the quarter.
“We believe growth opportunities in household penetration and per capita consumption, along with consumers’ growing need for energy are positive trends for the category.
“Our sales in non-Nielsen measured channels continued to grow.
“Our third quarter financial results were again impacted by unfavorable foreign currency exchange rates in certain markets. On a foreign currency adjusted basis excluding the Alcohol Brands segment, net sales increased 5.0 percent in the quarter. We estimate that diluted earnings per share were adversely impacted by approximately
“Gross profit margins improved in the 2024 third quarter, compared with the 2023 third quarter, both on a reported and adjusted basis and were higher on an adjusted basis compared with the 2024 second quarter.
“As previously reported, we have implemented an approximately 5.0 percent price increase on our brands and packages, excluding Bang Energy®, Reign® and Reign Storm® in the United States, effective November 1, 2024,” Schlosberg added.
Rodney C. Sacks, Chairman and Co-Chief Executive Officer, said, “Innovation continues to play a key role in our strategy. Globally our innovation has been generally well received by our bottlers/distributors, wholesalers, retailers and consumers. We launched Monster Energy® Ultra Vice Guava™ in the United States in October, with positive consumer response.
“Predator Energy® Gold Strike, launched in April 2024 in selected provinces in China, continues to perform and plans are underway to accelerate its rollout into further markets in China.
“Our Alcohol Brands segment has now been restructured under new management and we remain positive for the prospects of alcohol products within our broader portfolio. In the 2024 third quarter, we launched a second variety pack of The BeastTM in a 12-pack of slim 12-oz cans, comprising of Mean Green, Pink Poison, Gnarly Grape and Killer Sunrise. We are currently exploring opportunities for distribution of our alcohol products in certain international jurisdictions.
“Our innovation pipeline for both our non-alcoholic and alcoholic beverages remains robust,” Sacks said.
