Positive
  • Gross profit margin improved by 3.7 percentage points to 49.1%
  • Net loss improved by $8.4 million to $2.8 million
  • Adjusted EBITDA loss improved by $7.6 million to $1.5 million
  • Significant expansion in Walmart distribution from 800 to 4,300 stores
  • Expected $15 million in annual cost savings from Productivity Initiative
  • Strong balance sheet with $32.7 million in cash and no debt
Negative
  • Net sales declined 15.6% to $36.4 million
  • Volume reduction of 12.2% due to lost distribution in club channel
  • Increased promotional activity affecting sales
  • Downward revision of full-year 2024 net sales guidance
  • Expected continued Adjusted EBITDA losses in Q4 ($1.8-2.2 million)

Insights

The Q3 results present a mixed picture for Zevia. While net sales declined 15.6% to $36.4M, there's significant improvement in profitability metrics. The gross margin expansion of 3.7% to 49.1% and reduced net loss to $2.8M from $11.3M demonstrate effective cost management through their Productivity Initiative, which is expected to yield $15M in annual savings.

The expansion into 4,300 Walmart stores from 800 previously is a major distribution win that could drive significant volume growth. However, the lowered full-year guidance of $154-156M indicates near-term challenges. The strong balance sheet with $32.7M cash and zero debt provides financial flexibility for growth initiatives.

The distribution expansion into Walmart represents a strategic pivot to mass market presence, potentially offsetting the lost club channel business. This move targets underpenetrated regions and could accelerate brand awareness and trial rates. However, increased promotional activity suggests competitive pressure in the natural soda category.

The company's focus on reinvesting cost savings into growth initiatives, coupled with their emphasis on product innovation, indicates a long-term strategy to build sustainable market share. The 12.2% volume reduction needs monitoring, but the Walmart expansion could be a catalyst for recovery in Q4 2024.

Net loss improved to $2.8 million and Adjusted EBITDA loss improved to $1.5 million year over year

Expands Distribution into 4,300 Walmart Stores

LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Zevia PBC (“Zevia” or the “Company”) (NYSE: ZVIA), the Company bringing naturally delicious, zero sugar, clean-label beverages across usage occasions today reported results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2024.

Third Quarter 2024 Highlights

  • Net sales of $36.4 million, a decline of $6.7 million year over year
  • Gross profit margin was 49.1%, an improvement of 3.7 percentage points year over year
  • Net loss was $2.8 million, including $1.0 million of non-cash equity-based compensation expense, an improvement of $8.4 million year over year
  • Adjusted EBITDA loss was $1.5 million(1), an improvement of $7.6 million year over year
  • Loss per share was $0.04 to Zevia’s Class A Common stockholders, an improvement of $0.12 year over year
  • Subsequent to the third quarter, Zevia expanded distribution to more than 4,300 U.S. Walmart stores from the 800 it previously served

(1) Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure. See the supplementary schedules in this press release for a discussion of how we define and calculate this measure and a reconciliation thereof to the most directly comparable GAAP measure.

“We are very pleased to have delivered vast improvements in net loss and adjusted EBITDA, despite coming in slightly below our net sales expectations,” said Amy Taylor, President and Chief Executive Officer. “Through the strong execution of our Productivity Initiative, we now expect to achieve $15 million in annual cost savings, the majority of which we plan to reinvest in growth initiatives”.

“Looking ahead, we expect to resume net sales growth in the fourth quarter, in large part due to expanded nationwide distribution at Walmart. This partnership not only bolsters volume, but also fosters awareness and trial across regions where we are underpenetrated and growing fastest. Overall, we remain laser focused on executing a powerful brand marketing strategy, building sustainable distribution expansion and delivering product innovation that is unmatched in the natural soda category, all of which we believe will help pave the way to strong profitable growth long term.”

Third Quarter 2024 Results

Net sales decreased 15.6% to $36.4 million in the third quarter of 2024 compared to $43.1 million in the third quarter of 2023, largely due to the expected lost distribution in our club channel and one customer in our mass channel, resulting in reduced volumes of 12.2%, and to a lesser degree due to increased promotional activity at retailers.

Gross profit margin was 49.1% in the third quarter of 2024 compared to 45.4% in the third quarter of 2023, an improvement of 3.7 percentage points. The improvement was primarily due to lower inventory write-downs and favorable unit costs, partially offset by higher promotional levels.

Selling and marketing expenses were $12.0 million, or 32.9% of net sales, in the third quarter of 2024 compared to $20.5 million, or 47.5%, of net sales in the third quarter of 2023. The improvement was primarily due to a decrease in freight transfers and warehousing costs as a result of the impact of supply chain logistics challenges in the prior year as well as the Productivity Initiative, and a decrease in repackaging and freight out costs. These decreases were partially offset by investments made in marketing to drive brand awareness.

General and administrative expenses were $7.4 million, or 20.3% of net sales, in the third quarter of 2024 compared to $8.3 million, or 19.1%, of net sales in the third quarter of 2023. The decrease of $0.9 million was primarily driven by a decrease in costs as a result of our Productivity Initiative.

Restructuring expenses were $0.1 million in the third quarter of 2024 and primarily includes costs to exit two of our third-party warehouse and distribution facilities.

Equity-based compensation, a non-cash expense, was $1.0 million in the third quarter of 2024, compared to $1.9 million in the third quarter of 2023. The decrease of $0.8 million was largely due to the accelerated method of expense recognition on certain equity awards issued in connection with the Company’s IPO in 2021, partially offset by equity-based compensation expense related to new equity awards granted.

Net loss for the third quarter of 2024 was $2.8 million, compared to net loss of $11.3 million in the third quarter of 2023.

Loss per share for the third quarter of 2024 was $0.04 to Zevia’s Class A Common stockholders, compared to loss per share of $0.16 in the third quarter of 2023.

Adjusted EBITDA loss was $1.5 million in the third quarter of 2024, compared to an Adjusted EBITDA loss of $9.1 million in the third quarter of 2023. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure. See the supplementary schedules in this press release for a discussion of how we define and calculate this measure and a reconciliation thereof to the most directly comparable GAAP measure.

Balance Sheet and Cash Flows

As of September 30, 2024, the Company had $32.7 million in cash and cash equivalents and no outstanding debt, as well as an unused credit line of $20 million.

Guidance

The Company is updating its guidance for the full year of 2024 to reflect recent results. Net sales for the full year of 2024 are now expected to be in the range of $154 million to $156 million. For the fourth quarter of 2024, net sales are expected to be in the range of $38 million to $40 million. Adjusted EBITDA losses for the fourth quarter of 2024 are expected to be in the range of $1.8 million to $2.2 million.

We have not provided the forward-looking GAAP equivalent to our Adjusted EBITDA outlook or a GAAP reconciliation as a result of the uncertainty regarding, and the potential variability of, reconciling items such as stock-based compensation, income tax, and charges associated with restructuring and cost saving initiatives, including but not limited to severance costs, warehouse/distribution facility exit costs, and asset impairments. Accordingly, a reconciliation of this non-GAAP guidance metric to its corresponding GAAP equivalent is not available without unreasonable effort. These items are inherently variable and uncertain and depend on various factors, some of which are outside of the Company’s control or ability to predict. However, it is important to note that the reconciling items could have a significant effect on future GAAP results. We have provided historical reconciliations of GAAP to non-GAAP metrics in tables at the end of this release. For more information regarding the non-GAAP financial measures discussed in this earnings release, please see "Reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP Financial Results" below.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information

We use Adjusted EBITDA, a financial measure that is not calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). The Company’s management believes that Adjusted EBITDA, when taken together with our financial results presented in accordance with GAAP, provides meaningful supplemental information regarding our operating performance and facilitates internal comparisons of our historical operating performance on a more consistent basis by excluding certain items that may not be indicative of our business, results of operations or outlook. In particular, we believe that the use of Adjusted EBITDA is helpful to our investors as it is a measure used by management in assessing the health of our business, determining incentive compensation and evaluating our operating performance, as well as for internal planning and forecasting purposes.

We calculate Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) adjusted to exclude: (1) other income (expense), net, which includes interest (income) expense, foreign currency (gains) losses, (2) provision (benefit) for income taxes, (3) depreciation and amortization, (4) equity-based compensation, and (5) restructuring expenses (for 2024, in light of our Productivity Initiative). Adjusted EBITDA may in the future also be adjusted for amounts impacting net income related to the Tax Receivable Agreement liability and other infrequent and unusual transactions.

Adjusted EBITDA is presented for supplemental informational purposes only, has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP. Some of the limitations of Adjusted EBITDA include that (1) it does not properly reflect capital commitments to be paid in the future, (2) although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the underlying assets may need to be replaced and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect these capital expenditures, (3) it does not consider the impact of equity-based compensation expense, including the potential dilutive impact thereof, and (4) it does not reflect other non-operating expenses, including interest (income) expense, foreign currency (gains) losses, and restructuring. In addition, our use of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies because they may not calculate Adjusted EBITDA in the same manner, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure. Because of these limitations, when evaluating our performance, you should consider Adjusted EBITDA alongside other financial measures, including our net loss or income and other results stated in accordance with GAAP.
