Supply chain transition challenges disrupt service levels while customer demand remains strong
Company to announce second quarter 2023 results on Tuesday, August 8, 2023
LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Zevia PBC (“Zevia” or the “Company”) (NYSE: ZVIA), today announced preliminary unaudited net sales results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2023.
Second quarter net sales are expected to be approximately $42 million versus prior outlook of a range of $48 million to $51 million, driven entirely by disruption of supply chain service levels amid an operations transition. Demand remained strong following a Q2 price increase and the refreshed brand design has supported accelerated in-store presence, but short-term supply chain logistics challenges hindered fulfillment and impacted net sales results in the quarter.
“Second quarter net sales were below estimates due to unexpected supply chain interruptions that negatively impacted service levels,” said Amy Taylor, President and Chief Executive Officer. “Customer demand continued at or above expectations as reflected in our order book. Customer fulfillment rates, however, fell sharply in the second half of the quarter and did not keep pace with strong customer demand. We have implemented aggressive measures, including changes in supply chain leadership and pausing some components of our supply chain transition to restore service levels. We expect these issues to be resolved by the end of 2023. In the meantime, a strong execution of our Q2 price increase and favorable aluminum pricing contributed some positive indicators in the quarter.”
These preliminary results presented herein for the second quarter of 2023 are an estimate, based on information available to management as of the date of this release, and are subject to further changes upon completion of the Company’s quarter-end closing procedures. This press release does not present all necessary information for an understanding of the Company's financial condition as of the date of this release, or its results of operations for the second quarter of 2023.
