CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
 

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2024 (“Quarterly Report”) contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) about us and our industry that involve substantial known and unknown risks and uncertainties. All statements other than statements of historical facts contained in this Quarterly Report, including, without limitation, statements regarding our future results of operations or financial condition, business strategy, expectations about capital allocation, investment activities, sourcing of raw materials, the impact of our supply chain, logistics, distribution and marketing initiatives, the impact of our Productivity Initiative, including expected restructuring charges, cost savings and other benefits, factors and trends in our business, including seasonality, future expenses or payments under the TRA (as defined below), shifting market demand and consumer preferences, ability to effectively compete, ESG-related commitments, validity of our trademarks and other intellectual property, impact of government regulations, liquidity and capital requirements, including the sufficiency of our cash and liquidity or sources of capital, satisfying commitments, and plans and objectives of management for future operations, are forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements because they contain words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “consider,” “contemplate,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “forecast,” “guidance,” “intend,” “may,” “on track,” “outlook,” “plan,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “pursue,” “seek,” “should,” “target,” “will” or “would” or the negative of these words or other similar words, terms or expressions.

You should not rely on forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. We have based the forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report primarily on our current expectations and projections about future events and trends that we believe may affect our business, financial condition and operating results. All of the forward-looking statements are qualified in their entirety by reference to the factors discussed under Risk Factors in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 6, 2024 for the period ended December 31, 2023 (“Annual Report”), as well as our subsequent filings with the SEC. The outcome of the events described in these forward-looking statements is subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors described in the section titled “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report, including, but not limited to, the following:

---

Moreover, we operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risks and uncertainties emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all risks and uncertainties that could have an impact on the forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report. The results, events and circumstances reflected in the forward-looking statements may not be achieved or occur, and actual results, events or circumstances could differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements.

In addition, statements that “we believe” and similar statements reflect our beliefs and opinions on the relevant subject. These statements are based on information available to us as of the date of this Quarterly Report and while we believe that information provides a reasonable basis for these statements, that information may be limited or incomplete. Our statements should not be read to indicate that we have conducted an exhaustive inquiry into, or review of, all relevant information. These statements are inherently uncertain, and investors are cautioned not to unduly rely on these statements.

The forward-looking statements made in this Quarterly Report relate only to events as of the date on which the statements are made. We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statements made in this Quarterly Report to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this Quarterly Report or to reflect new information or the occurrence of unanticipated events, except as required by applicable law. We may not actually achieve the plans, intentions or expectations disclosed in our forward-looking statements, and you should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements. Our forward-looking statements do not reflect the potential impact of any future acquisitions, mergers, dispositions, joint ventures or investments.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

The following discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes and other financial information included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report. Our actual results may differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including those set forth in Part II, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” and other sections of this Quarterly Report and our consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report. The financial data discussed below reflects the historical results of operations and financial position of the Company. References in this Quarterly Report to “Zevia,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” and “our” refer (1) prior to the consummation of the Reorganization Transactions, to Zevia LLC, and (2) after the consummation of the Reorganization Transactions, to Zevia PBC and its consolidated subsidiaries unless the context indicates otherwise. Our historical results are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any period in the future.

Overview

We are a growth beverage company that develops, markets, sells, and distributes great tasting, zero sugar beverages made with simple, plant-based ingredients. We are a Delaware public benefit corporation and have been designated as a “Certified B Corporation,” and are focused on addressing the global health challenges resulting from excess sugar consumption by offering a broad portfolio of zero sugar, zero calorie, naturally sweetened beverages. All Zevia® beverages are Non-GMO Project verified, gluten-free, Kosher, vegan and zero sodium and include a variety of flavors across Soda, Energy Drinks, Organic Tea, and Kids drinks. Our products are distributed and sold principally across the U.S. and Canada through a diverse network of major retailers in the food, drug, warehouse club, mass, natural and e-commerce channels and in grocery and natural product stores and specialty outlets. We believe that consumers increasingly select beverage products based on taste, ingredients and fit with today’s consumer preferences, which has benefited the Zevia® brand and resulted in over 2.0 billion cans of Zevia sold to date.

Key Events During the First Quarter of 2024

Beginning in the first quarter of 2024, our contract manufacturers are responsible for the procurement of raw materials to produce our products, which are then sold to us as finished goods. We believe this change will allow us to leverage the purchasing power of our contract manufacturers and further diversify, as well as provide us with the flexibility to scale the business. We also onboarded a new global transportation management company in the first quarter of 2024 to support the optimization of the procurement of freight and associated freight management activities to improve our cost management. We believe both of these changes will better optimize our supply chain in order to help support future growth and drive increasing returns as we scale the business.

We experienced delays in the recovery of SKU level distribution at certain retailers during the first quarter of 2024 which was primarily due to a lag effect from supply chain challenges in 2023 that resulted in reduced volumes. We expect it may take time to recover this lost shelf space, however we are focused on winning back distribution in our key accounts and concurrently evolving our route-to-market.

We are launching a regional approach to direct store delivery “DSD” as well as gaining distribution in a limited number of regional convenience chains in the U.S. and Canada. We expect these initiatives to have an immaterial impact to net sales in the near term, however, we expect to obtain certain insights from these routes to position us for potential additional opportunities for future growth and expansion.

In parallel with these evolutions in route-to-market, and with the completion of our brand refresh marketing efforts, we began ramping up investments in consumer marketing outside of the store and we expect that to continue throughout 2024.

Productivity Initiative

In the second quarter of 2024, we began executing a multi-year, broad-based Productivity Initiative designed to realign our cost structure in order to accelerate our route-to-market evolution and build the Zevia Brand. This Productivity Initiative is designed to focus on our most critical initiatives including driving growth and innovation in our highest margin carbonated better for you beverages, re-align our cost structure to support greater investments in the Zevia Brand and improve operational excellence while simplifying processes across the organization.

The Productivity Initiative is projected to result in the following:

Additional Restructuring Charges or cash expenditures may be incurred as the Company makes further progress on this Productivity Initiative.

Factors Affecting Our Performance

Macroeconomic Environment

In addition to the supply chain challenges discussed above, a number of external factors, including the global economy, global health emergencies, inflationary pressures, relatively high interest rates, volatility in the financial markets, recession fears, financial institution instability, any potential shutdown of the U.S. government, global hostilities, including the military conflicts in Ukraine and Israel and the surrounding areas, and political tensions between the U.S. and China have impacted and may continue to impact transportation, labor, and commodity costs. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, we continued to experience slightly higher operating costs, including logistics, manufacturing and labor costs, which we expect to continue through 2024. These pressures have and are expected to continue to impact our margins and operating results. We, along with our competitors, have increased pricing on a number of products in response to widespread inflation. These pricing increases may result in future reductions in volume.

The following summarizes the components of our results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Components of Our Results of Operations

Net Sales

We generate net sales from the sales of our products, including Soda, Energy Drinks, Organic Tea, and Kids drinks, to our customers, which include grocery distributors, national retailers, convenience retailers, natural products retailers, warehouse club retailers and retailers with e-commerce channels, in the U.S. and Canada.

We offer our customers sales incentives that are designed to support the distribution of our products to consumers. These incentives include discounts, trade promotions, price allowances and product placement fees. The amounts for these incentives are deducted from gross sales to arrive at our net sales.

The following factors and trends in our business are expected to be key drivers of our net sales for the foreseeable future:

We expect both new distribution and increased organic sales from existing outlets and pricing strategies to contribute to our future growth; however, sales levels in any given period may continue to be impacted by seasonality, increased level of competition, customers efforts to manage inventory, and our ability to fulfill customer demands. During the first quarter of 2024, we experienced delays in the recovery of SKU level distribution at certain retailers which was primarily due to a lag effect from supply chain challenges in 2023 that resulted in reduced volumes. We are also increasing our spend on promotional activity at key accounts during the quarter in order to drive velocity. We expect it may take time to recover this lost shelf space, however we are focused on winning back distribution in our key accounts and concurrently evolving our route-to-market.

We sell our products in the U.S. and Canada, direct to retailers and also through distributors. We do not have short- or long- term sales commitments with our customers.

Cost of Goods Sold

Historically, cost of goods sold consists of all costs to acquire and manufacture our products, including the cost of ingredients, raw materials, packaging, in-bound freight and logistics and third-party production fees. Beginning in 2024, our contract manufacturers are responsible for the procurement of raw materials to produce our products, which are then sold to us as finished goods, therefore, cost of goods sold for the three months ended March 31, 2024 consist of all costs to purchase our product from our contract manufacturers as a finished good.

Our cost of goods sold is subject to price fluctuations in the marketplace, particularly in the price of aluminum and other raw materials, as well as in the cost of production, packaging, in-bound freight and logistics. Our results of operations depend on our contract manufacturers ability to arrange for the purchase of raw materials and the production of our products in sufficient quantities at competitive prices. We have long-term contracts with certain suppliers of stevia and certain third-party contract manufacturers governing quality control, regulatory compliance, pricing and other terms, but these contracts generally do not guarantee any minimum purchase commitments to our third-party contract manufacturers. Our third-party contract manufacturers procure packaging and ingredient materials to manufacture our products according to our submitted rolling forecasts, with the initial three months of each forecast generally constituting our purchase commitment.

We expect our cost of goods sold to increase in absolute dollars as our volume increases.

We elected to classify shipping and handling costs for salable product outside of cost of goods sold, in selling and marketing expenses in our accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. As a result, our gross profit and profit margin may not be comparable to other entities that present shipping and handling costs as a component of cost of goods sold.

Gross Profit

Gross profit consists of our net sales less costs of goods sold. Our gross profit and gross margin are affected by the mix of distribution channels of our net sales in each period, as well as the level of discounts and promotions offered during the period. Gross profit may be favorably impacted by leveraging our asset-light business model and through increased distribution direct to retailers, the increased scale of our business and our continued focus on cost and efficiency improvements.

---

Operating Expenses

Selling and Marketing Expenses

Selling and marketing expenses consist primarily of warehousing and distribution costs and advertising and marketing expenses. Warehousing and distribution costs include storage, transfer, repacking and handling fees and out-bound freight and delivery charges. Advertising and marketing expenses consist of variable costs associated with production and media buying of marketing programs and trade events, as well as sampling and in-store demonstration costs. Selling and marketing expenses also includes the incremental costs of obtaining contracts, such as sales commissions.

Our selling and marketing expenses are expected to increase in absolute dollars in the long-term, both as a result of the increased warehousing and distribution costs resulting from increased net sales and as a result of increased focus on marketing programs/spend, which we expect to be partially offset by our continued focus on cost improvements in our supply chain. Our selling and marketing expenses are expected to slightly decrease from the prior year in the short-term, largely due to a decrease in logistics expenses compared to the prior year as a result of the historical supply chain logistics challenges encountered during 2023 as well as cost savings initiatives implemented. These cost savings are expected to be partially offset by increased marketing expenses as a result of increased focus on marketing programs.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses include all salary and other personnel expenses (other than equity-based compensation expense) for our employees, including employees related to management, marketing, sales, product development, quality control, accounting, information technology and other functions. Our ongoing general and administrative expenses are expected to remain flat in absolute dollars in the near term and as a percentage of net sales over time.

Equity-Based Compensation Expense

Equity-based compensation expense consists of the recorded expense of equity-based compensation for our employees and, if any, for certain consultants and service providers who are non-employees. We record equity-based compensation expense for employee grants using grant date fair value for RSUs or a Black-Scholes valuation model to calculate the fair value of stock options by date granted. Equity-based compensation cost for RSU awards is measured based on the closing fair market value of the Zevia LLC Class B unit or the Zevia PBC Class A common stock, as applicable, on the date of grant. Our equity-based compensation expense is expected to remain relatively consistent in absolute dollars but decline as a percentage of net sales over time.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation is primarily related to computer equipment, quality control and marketing equipment, and leasehold improvements. Intangible assets subject to amortization consist of customer relationships and software applications. Non-amortizable intangible assets consist of trademarks, which represent the Company’s exclusive ownership of the Zevia® brand used in connection with the manufacturing, marketing, and distribution of its beverages. We also own several other trademarks in both the U.S. and in foreign countries. Depreciation and amortization expense is expected to increase in-line with ongoing capital expenditures as our business grows.

Other income, net

Other income, net consists primarily of interest income (expense), and foreign currency (loss) gains.

Three Months Ended March 31, 2024 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2023

Net Sales

		Three Months Ended March 31,								Change
(in thousands)		2024				2023				Amount				Percentage
Net sales		$	38,799			$	43,300			$	(4,501	)			(10.4	)%

Net sales were $38.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 as compared to $43.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023. Equivalized cases sold were 3.0 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024 as compared to 3.3 million equivalized cases sold during the three months ended March 31, 2023. The decrease in net sales was primarily driven by a decrease in the number of equivalized cases sold, resulting in $4.9 million lower net sales primarily caused by delay in the recovery of SKU level distribution at retail discussed in the Key Events During the First Quarter of 2024 section above, partially offset by pricing increases of $0.4 million. We define an equivalized case as a 288 fluid ounce case.

Cost of Goods Sold

		Three Months Ended March 31,								Change
(in thousands)		2024				2023				Amount				Percentage
Cost of goods sold		$	21,080			$	23,195			$	(2,115	)			(9.1	)%

Cost of goods sold was $21.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 as compared to $23.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The decrease of $2.1 million, or 9.1%, was primarily due to a 10.4% decrease in the shipment of equivalized cases, resulting in $2.3 million lower costs of goods sold and favorable product mix of $0.6 million, partially offset by unfavorable unit costs of $1.0 million primarily driven by investments in pack-specific enhanced visuals to improve on-shelf visibility.

Gross Profit and Gross Margin

		Three Months Ended March 31,								Change
(in thousands)		2024				2023				Amount				Percentage
Gross profit		$	17,719			$	20,105			$	(2,386	)			(11.9	)%
Gross margin			45.7	%			46.4	%							(0.8	)%

Gross profit was $17.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 as compared to $20.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The decrease in gross profit of $2.4 million, or 11.9%, was primarily driven by lower volumes, and unfavorable unit costs, partially offset by favorable product mix.

Gross margin for the three months ended March 31, 2024 decreased to 45.7% from 46.4% in the prior-year period. The decrease was primarily due to unfavorable unit costs and increased spend on promotional activity at key accounts, partially offset by favorable product mix.

Selling and Marketing Expenses

		Three Months Ended March 31,								Change
(in thousands)		2024				2023				Amount				Percentage
Selling and marketing expenses		$	15,070			$	11,912			$	3,158				26.5	%

Selling and marketing expenses were $15.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 as compared to $11.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The increase of $3.2 million, or 26.5%, was primarily due to $1.0 million of higher freight and freight transfer costs related to increased levels of inventory production, and $1.7 million of higher warehousing costs resulting from increased level of storage costs driven by higher levels of inventory. Marketing expenses increased $0.5 million as a result of investments made to drive brand awareness as discussed in the Key Events During the First Quarter of 2024 section above.

General and Administrative Expenses

		Three Months Ended March 31,								Change
(in thousands)		2024				2023				Amount				Percentage
General and administrative expenses		$	8,115			$	8,645			$	(530	)			(6.1	)%

General and administrative expenses were $8.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 as compared to $8.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The decrease of $0.5 million, or 6.1%, was primarily driven by a decrease in employee costs.

Equity-Based Compensation Expenses

		Three Months Ended March 31,								Change
(in thousands)		2024				2023				Amount				Percentage
Equity-based compensation		$	1,489			$	2,380			$	(891	)			(37.4	)%

Equity-based compensation expense was $1.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 as compared to $2.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, primarily related to outstanding equity-based awards being recognized over the remaining service periods of the awards. The decrease of $0.9 million was primarily driven by a $1.0 million decrease related 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.

Seasonality

Generally, we experience greater demand for our products during the second and third fiscal quarters, which correspond to the warmer months of the year in our major markets. As our business continues to grow, we expect to see continued seasonality effects, with net sales tending to be greater in the second and third quarters of the year.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of March 31, 2024, we had $28.7 million in cash and cash equivalents. We believe that our cash and cash equivalents as of March 31, 2024, together with our operating activities and available borrowings under the Secured Revolving Line of Credit (as defined below), will provide adequate liquidity for ongoing operations, planned capital expenditures and other investments beyond the next 12 months.

Our principal sources of liquidity are our existing cash and cash equivalents, cash generated from sales of our products, and borrowing capacity currently available under our Secured Revolving Line of Credit. Our primary cash needs are for operating expenses, working capital, and capital expenditures to support the growth in our business.

Future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including our rate of revenue growth, gross margin and the level of expenditures in all areas of the Company. In future years, we may experience an increase in operating and capital expenditures from time to time, as needed, as we expand business activities. To the extent that existing capital resources and sales growth are not sufficient to fund future activities, we may seek alternative financing through additional equity or debt financing transactions. Additional funds may not be available on terms favorable to us or at all. Also, we will continue to assess our liquidity needs in light of current and future global health emergencies, inflationary pressures, relatively high interest rates, volatility in the financial markets, recession fears, financial institution instability, any potential shutdown of the U.S. government, current and future global hostilities, and political tensions between the U.S. and China that may continue to disrupt and impact the global and national economies and global financial markets. If any disruption continues into the future, we may not be able to access the financial markets and could experience an inability to access additional capital, which could negatively affect our operations in the future. Failure to raise additional capital, if and when needed, could have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows.

The Company is a holding company, and is the sole managing member of Zevia LLC. The Company operates and controls all of the business and affairs of Zevia LLC. Accordingly, the Company is dependent on distributions from Zevia LLC to pay its taxes, its obligations under the TRA and other expenses. Any future credit facilities may impose limitations on the ability of Zevia LLC to pay dividends to the Company.

In connection with the IPO and the Reorganization Transactions in July 2021, the Direct Zevia Stockholders and certain continuing members of Zevia LLC received the right to receive future payments pursuant to the TRA. The amount payable under the TRA will be based on an annual calculation of the reduction in our U.S. federal, state and local taxes resulting from the utilization of certain pre-IPO tax attributes and tax benefits resulting from sales and exchanges by continuing members of Zevia LLC. See “Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions—Tax Receivable Agreement” included in the prospectus dated July 21, 2021 and filed with the SEC on July 23, 2021. We expect that the payments that we may be required to make under the TRA may be substantial. Assuming no material changes in the relevant tax law and that we earn sufficient taxable income to realize all tax benefits that are subject to the TRA, we expect that the reduction in tax payments for us associated with the federal, state and local tax benefits described above would aggregate to approximately $66.3 million through 2037. Under such scenario we would be required to pay the Direct Zevia Stockholders and certain continuing members of Zevia LLC 85% of such amount, or $56.4 million through 2037.

The actual amounts may materially differ from these hypothetical amounts, as potential future reductions in tax payments for us and TRA payments by us will be calculated using prevailing tax rates applicable to us over the life of the TRA and will be dependent on us generating sufficient future taxable income to realize the benefit.

We cannot reasonably estimate future annual payments under the TRA given the difficulty in determining those estimates as they are dependent on a number of factors, including the extent of exchanges by continuing Zevia LLC unitholders, the associated fair value of the underlying Zevia LLC units at the time of those exchanges, the tax rates applicable, our future income, and the associated tax benefits that might be realized that would trigger a TRA payment requirement.

However, a significant portion of any potential future payments under the TRA is anticipated to be payable over 15 years, consistent with the period over which the associated tax deductions would be realized by us, assuming Zevia LLC generates sufficient income to utilize the deductions. If sufficient income is not generated by Zevia LLC, the associated taxable income of Zevia will be impacted and the associated tax benefits to be realized will be limited, thereby similarly reducing the associated TRA payments to be made. Given the length of time over which payments would be payable, the impact to liquidity in any single year is greatly reduced.

Although the timing and extent of future payments could vary significantly under the TRA for the factors discussed above, we anticipate funding payments from the TRA from cash flows generated from operations.

Credit Facility

ABL Credit Facility

On February 22, 2022, we obtained a revolving credit facility (the “Secured Revolving Line of Credit”) by entering into a Loan and Security Agreement with Bank of America, N.A (the “Loan and Security Agreement”). Under the Secured Revolving Line of Credit, we may draw funds up to an amount not to exceed the lesser of (i) a $20 million revolving commitment and (ii) a borrowing base which is comprised of inventory and receivables. Up to $2 million of the Secured Revolving Line of Credit may be used for letter of credit issuances with the option to increase the commitment under the Secured Revolving Line of Credit by up to $10 million, subject to certain conditions. The Secured Revolving Line of Credit matures on February 22, 2027. During the first quarter of 2024, the Company drew $8 million on the Secured Revolving Line of Credit which was subsequently repaid in the same period. As of March 31, 2024, there was no amount outstanding on the Secured Revolving Line of Credit. The Secured Revolving Line of Credit is secured by a first priority security interest in substantially all of the Company’s assets.

Loans under the Secured Revolving Line of Credit bear interest based on either, at our option, the Bloomberg Short-Term Bank Yield Index rate plus an applicable margin between 1.50% to 2.00% or the Base Rate (customarily defined) plus an applicable margin between 0.50% to 1.00% with margin, in each case, determined by the average daily availability under the Secured Revolving Line of Credit.

Under the Secured Revolving Line of Credit we must satisfy a financial covenant requiring a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.00 to 1.00 as of the last day of any fiscal quarter following the occurrence of certain events of default that are continuing or any day on which availability under the Secured Revolving Line of Credit is less than the greater of $3 million and 17.5% of the borrowing base, and must again satisfy such financial covenant as of the last day of each fiscal quarter thereafter until such time as there are no events of default and availability has been above such threshold for 30 consecutive days. As of March 31, 2024, the Company was in compliance with its financial covenant.

Cash Flows

The following table presents the major components of net cash flows from and used in operating, investing and financing activities for the periods indicated.

		Three Months Ended March 31,
(in thousands)		2024				2023
Cash (used in) provided by:
Operating activities		$	(3,202	)		$	9,397
Investing activities		$	(33	)		$	(862	)
Financing activities		$	—			$	23

Net Cash (Used in) Provided by Operating Activities

Our cash flows (used in) provided by operating activities are primarily influenced by working capital requirements.

Net cash used in operating activities of $3.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was primarily driven by a net loss of $7.2 million, partially offset by non-cash expenses of $2.0 million primarily related to equity-based compensation and depreciation and amortization expense, and a net increase in cash related to changes in operating assets and liabilities of $2.0 million. Changes in cash flows related to operating assets and liabilities were primarily due to a decrease in inventories of $3.9 million as a result of managing inventory levels, a decrease in prepaid expenses and other assets of $1.1 million largely due to a decrease in prepaid deposits related to the sale of raw materials, and an increase of $0.1 million in accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities due to timing of purchases and increased production of inventory, partially offset by an increase in accounts receivable of $2.9 million due to timing of sales.

Net cash provided by operating activities of $9.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was primarily driven by a net increase in cash related to changes in operating assets and liabilities of $9.3 million, partially offset by a net loss of $2.9 million and non-cash expenses of $3.0 million primarily related to equity-based compensation and depreciation and amortization expense. Changes in cash flows related to operating assets and liabilities were primarily due to an increase of $13.6 in accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities due to timing of purchases and increased production of inventory and a decrease in prepaid expenses and other assets of $0.5 million primarily due to amortization of prepaid insurance policies, partially offset by an increase in accounts receivable of $3.2 million due to increases in net sales, and an increase in inventories of $1.4 million due to timing of purchases.

Net Cash Used in Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities of $33 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was primarily due to purchases of property and equipment used in ongoing operations.

Net cash used in investing activities of $0.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was primarily due to purchases of property, equipment, and software of $0.9 million for leasehold improvements and computer equipment and software used in ongoing operations.

Net Cash Provided By Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities of $0.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was due to proceeds from the revolving line of credit of $8 million which was repaid in the same period.

Net cash provided by financing activities of $23 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was due to proceeds from the exercise of stock options.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We report our financial results in accordance with U.S. GAAP. However, management believes that Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, provides investors with additional useful information in evaluating our operating performance.

We calculate Adjusted EBITDA as net loss adjusted to exclude: (1) other income (expense), net, which includes interest (income) expense, foreign currency (gains) losses, and (gains) losses on disposal of fixed assets, (2) provision (benefit) for income taxes, (3) depreciation and amortization, and (4) equity-based compensation. Also, Adjusted EBITDA may in the future be adjusted for amounts impacting net income related to the TRA liability and other infrequent and unusual transactions.

Adjusted EBITDA is a financial measure that is not required by, or presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA, when taken together with our financial results presented in accordance with U.S. 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.

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 U.S. 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 (gains)/losses on disposal of fixed assets. 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 income (loss) and other results stated in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

The following table presents a reconciliation of net loss, the most directly comparable financial measure stated in accordance with U.S. GAAP, to Adjusted EBITDA for the periods presented:

		Three Months Ended March 31,
(in thousands)		2024				2023
Net loss and comprehensive loss		$	(7,199	)		$	(2,912	)

* Includes interest (income) expense, foreign currency (gains) losses, and (gains) losses on disposal of fixed assets.

Commitments

Effective March 2022, the Company entered into an amendment to the lease for its corporate headquarters offices to extend the lease term through December 31, 2023 and expand the total square footage from 17,923 square feet to 20,185 square feet which commenced on May 1, 2022. In January 2023, the Company further extended the lease term through December 31, 2026.

Our leases generally consist of long-term operating leases, which are payable monthly and relate to our office space. For a further discussion on our debt and operating lease commitments as of March 31, 2024, see the sections above including Note 7, Debt, and Note 8, Leases, included in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of this Quarterly Report.

Our inventory purchase commitments are generally short-term in nature and have ordinary commercial terms. We did not have any material long-term inventory purchase commitments as of March 31, 2024. Our contract manufacturers are obligated to fulfill against purchase orders that are aligned with our forecast based on terms and conditions of the contract. Our forecasts provided to our contract manufacturers are short term in nature and at no time extend beyond a year.

We expect to satisfy these commitments through a combination of cash on hand and cash generated from sales of our products.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, sales, costs and expenses and related disclosures. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ significantly from our estimates. To the extent that there are differences between our estimates and actual results, our future financial statement presentation, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows will be affected.

There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies from those discussed in our Annual Report.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Refer to Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, included in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of this Quarterly Report for a discussion of recently issued accounting pronouncements.

Emerging Growth Company Status

We are an “emerging growth company,” as defined in the JOBS Act, and we may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not “emerging growth companies.” We may take advantage of these exemptions until we are no longer an “emerging growth company.” Section 107 of the JOBS Act provides that an “emerging growth company” can take advantage of the extended transition period afforded by the JOBS Act for the implementation of new or revised accounting standards. We have elected to use the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards and as a result of this election, our financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with public company effective dates. We may take advantage of these exemptions up until the last day of the fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of the IPO or such earlier time that we are no longer an emerging growth company. We would cease to be an emerging growth company if any of the following events occur: (i) we have more than $1.235 billion in annual revenue, (ii) we have more than $700.0 million in market value of our Class A common stock held by non-affiliates (and we have been a public company for at least 12 months and have filed one annual report on Form 10-K) or (iii) we issue more than $1.0 billion of non-convertible debt securities over a three-year period.

Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

We are exposed to certain market risks in the ordinary course of our business. These risks primarily consist of raw material prices, foreign exchange, inflation and commodities as follows:

Raw Material and Finished Goods Risk

Our profitability is dependent on, among other things, our ability to anticipate and react to raw material costs. Currently, a key ingredient in our products is stevia extract. Our stevia leaf extract is procured by our contract manufacturers and sourced from a large multi-national ingredient company with whom we have a long-standing relationship through a two-year agreement that was entered into effective October 15, 2023 which includes fixed pricing for the duration of the term. During 2023, we also tested and approved the use of another stevia leaf extract supplier, whose stevia leaf is derived from a region different than the above supplier. We continue to seek to diversify to alternative sources of supply to mitigate potential supply disruptions. However, there can be no assurance that we will be able to secure alternative sources of supply. Additionally, the prices of stevia and other ingredients we use are subject to many factors beyond our control, such as market conditions, climate change, supply chain challenges, and adverse weather conditions.

Our aluminum cans are procured by our contract manufacturers through various can manufacturers. The price for aluminum cans also fluctuates depending on market conditions. Our contract manufacturers ability to continue to procure enough aluminum cans at reasonable prices will depend on future developments that are highly uncertain.

We, along with our contract manufacturers, are working to diversify our sources of supply and intend to enter into additional long-term contracts to better ensure stability of prices of our raw materials.

During the first quarter of 2024, the Company changed its supply chain process whereby our contract manufacturers are responsible for the procurement of raw materials to produce our products, which are then sold to us as finished goods. As a result, during the three months ended March 31, 2024, we had three vendors accounting for approximately 93% of our total raw material and finished goods purchases. Refer to Note 13, Major Customers, Accounts Receivable and Vendor Concentration, included in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Foreign Exchange Risk

The majority of our sales and costs are denominated in U.S. dollars and are not subject to foreign exchange risk. Our contract manufacturers source some ingredients and packaging materials from international sources, and as a result our results of operations could be impacted by changes in exchange rates. We sell and distribute our products to Canadian customers, who are invoiced and remit payment in Canadian dollars. All Canadian dollar transactions are translated into U.S. dollars using period-end rates of exchange for assets and liabilities, and average rates of exchange for the period for sales and expenses. To the extent our contract manufacturers increase sourcing from outside the U.S. or we increase net sales outside of the U.S. that are denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar, the impact of changes in exchange rates on our results of operations would increase. Foreign exchange gains and losses were not material for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Inflation Risk

We believe that inflation has had a material effect on our business, results of operations, and financial condition. If our costs were to become subject to further and prolonged significant inflationary pressures, we may not be able to fully offset such higher costs through price increases. Our inability or failure to do so could harm our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Commodity Risk

We are subject to market risks with respect to commodities because our ability to recover increased costs through higher pricing may be limited by the competitive environment in which we operate. Our principal commodities risks relate to purchases of aluminum, diesel fuel, cartons and corrugate.

Item 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is (1) recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (2) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2024. Based on the foregoing evaluation, management determined that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level as of March 31, 2024.

 

Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Management determined that as of March 31, 2024, no changes in our internal control over financial reporting had occurred during the fiscal quarter then ended that materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies	3 Months Ended

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies	2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial reporting and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, these financial statements do not include all information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements and are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024, or for any other interim period or any other future fiscal year. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2023 included herein was derived from the audited financial statements as of that date but does not include all disclosures, including certain notes, required by U.S. GAAP that are required on an annual reporting basis. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. Therefore, these interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 and accompanying notes included in the Annual Report. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for the fair presentation of the condensed consolidated financial statements for the periods presented have been reflected. Principles of Consolidation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiary, Zevia LLC, that it controls due to ownership of a majority equity interest. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company owns a majority economic interest in, and operates and controls all of the businesses and affairs of, Zevia LLC. Accordingly, the Company has prepared these accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 810, Consolidation. On January 1, 2022, the Company and Zevia LLC entered into a service agreement to transfer the services of all employees of the Company to Zevia LLC. Under terms of the service agreement between the entities, the payroll costs of employees are borne by Zevia LLC while certain other non-payroll costs, such as those associated with stock compensation arrangements, remain with the Company. In addition, pursuant to the Thirteenth Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement of Zevia LLC, dated as of July 21, 2021, Zevia LLC shall reimburse the Company for certain expenses for overhead, administrative, and other expenses, at the Company’s discretion. For the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, it was determined that the majority of such costs will be retained by the Company, with certain costs directly attributable to Zevia LLC being borne by that entity. These costs impacted the amount of net loss reported by Zevia LLC and consequently impacted the amount allocated to noncontrolling interest. Use of estimates The preparation of the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, as well as the reported amount of net sales and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates made by the Company relate to: net sales and associated cost recognition; the useful lives assigned to and the recoverability of property and equipment; adjustments recorded for inventory obsolescence and adjustments made for net realizable value; the incremental borrowing rate for lease liabilities; allowance for doubtful accounts; the useful lives assigned to and the recoverability of intangible assets; realization of deferred tax assets; and the determination of the fair value of equity instruments, including restricted unit awards, and equity-based compensation awards. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates compared to historical experience and trends, which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of its assets and liabilities. Recent accounting pronouncements The Company is an emerging growth company, as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act (“JOBS Act”). Under the JOBS Act, emerging growth companies can delay adopting new or revised accounting standards issued subsequent to the enactment of the JOBS Act until those standards apply to private companies. The Company has elected to use this extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until the earlier of the date that it (i) is no longer an emerging growth company or (ii) affirmatively and irrevocably opts out of the extended transition period provided in the JOBS Act. As a result, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with the new or revised accounting pronouncements as of public company effective dates. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements – Not Yet Adopted In November 2023, the FASB issues ASU No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. This ASU requires entities to disclose information about their reportable segments’ significant expenses and other segment items on an interim and annual basis. Public entities with a single reportable segment are required to apply the disclosure requirements in ASU 2023-07, as well as all existing segment disclosures and reconciliation requirements in ASC 280 on an interim and annual basis. ASU 2023-07 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and for interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance. In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09 Income Taxes (Topic 740) Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. The guidance requires disaggregated information about a reporting entity’s effective tax rate reconciliation as well as information on income taxes paid. The guidance is intended to benefit investors by providing more detailed income tax disclosures that would be useful in making capital allocation decisions. The ASU is effective for private companies for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2025, with early adoption permitted. The guidance will be applied on a prospective basis with the option to apply the standard retrospectively. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance. Any other recently issued accounting pronouncements are neither relevant, nor expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

Debt Disclosure [Abstract]
Debt	7. DEBT ABL Credit Facility On February 22, 2022, Zevia LLC (the “Borrower”) obtained a revolving credit facility (the “Secured Revolving Line of Credit”) by entering into a Loan and Security Agreement with Bank of America, N.A. (the “Loan and Security Agreement”). The Borrower may draw funds under the Secured Revolving Line of Credit up to an amount not to exceed the lesser of (i) a $20 million revolving commitment and (ii) a borrowing base which is comprised of inventory and receivables. Up to $2 million of the Secured Revolving Line of Credit may be used for letter of credit issuances and the Borrower has the option to increase the commitment under the Secured Revolving Line of Credit by up to $10 million, subject to certain conditions. The Secured Revolving Line of Credit matures on February 22, 2027. During the first quarter of 2024, the Company drew $8 million on the Secured Revolving Line of Credit which was subsequently repaid in the same period. As of March 31, 2024, there was no amount outstanding on the Secured Revolving Line of Credit. The Secured Revolving Line of Credit is secured by a first priority security interest in substantially all of the Company’s assets. Loans under the Secured Revolving Line of Credit bear interest based on either, at the Borrower’s option, the Bloomberg Short-Term Bank Yield Index rate plus an applicable margin between 1.50% to 2.00% or the Base Rate (customarily defined) plus an applicable margin between 0.50% to 1.00% with margin, in each case, determined by the average daily availability under the Secured Revolving Line of Credit. Under the Secured Revolving Line of Credit, the Borrower must satisfy a financial covenant requiring a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.00 to 1.00 as of the last day of any fiscal quarter following the occurrence of certain events of default that are continuing or any day on which availability under the Secured Revolving Line of Credit is less than the greater of $3 million and 17.5% of the borrowing base, and must again satisfy such financial covenant as of the last day of each fiscal quarter thereafter until such time as there are no events of default and availability has been above such threshold for 30 consecutive days. As of March 31, 2024, the Company was in compliance with its financial covenant.

Equity-Based Compensation	3 Months Ended

Share-Based Payment Arrangement [Abstract]
Equity-Based Compensation	11. EQUITY-BASED COMPENSATION In July 2021, prior to the IPO, the Company adopted the Zevia PBC 2021 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2021 Plan”) under which the Company may grant options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock units (“RSUs”), restricted stock awards, other equity-based awards and incentive bonuses to employees, officers, non-employee directors and other service providers of the Company and its affiliates. The number of shares available for issuance under the 2021 Plan is increased on January 1 of each year beginning in 2022 and ending with a final increase in 2031 in an amount equal to the lesser of: (i) 5% of the total number of shares of Class A common stock outstanding on the preceding December 31, or (ii) a smaller number of shares determined by the Company’s Board of Directors. In October and November 2021, the Company’s Board of Directors approved an amendment to its equity-based compensation plans for a certain number of employees to allow immediate vesting upon retirement of all outstanding RSUs and stock options, and to extend the exercisability of outstanding stock options up to five years after retirement, if they meet certain conditions, including a resignation after the holder has reached 50 years of age with at least 10 years of service to the Company, so long as the holder provides advance notice of his or her resignation to the Company’s Board of Directors. As of March 31, 2024, the 2021 Plan provides for future grants and/or issuances of up to approximately 2.8 million shares of our common stock. Equity-based awards under our employee compensation plans are made with newly issued shares reserved for this purpose. Stock Options The Company uses a Black-Scholes valuation model to measure stock option expense as of each respective grant date. Generally, stock option grants vest ratably over four years, have a ten-year term, and have an exercise price equal to the fair market value as of the grant date. The fair value of stock options is amortized to expense over the vesting period. The fair value of stock option awards granted during the period was determined on the grant date using the Black-Scholes valuation model based on the following weighted-average assumptions:     Three Months Ended March 31,       2024   2023   Stock price   $ 1.36   $ 3.00   Exercise Price     1.36     3.00   Expected term (years)(1)     6.25     6.25   Expected volatility (2)     80.3 %   62.0 % Risk-Free interest rate (3)     4.1 %   3.4 % Dividend yield (4)     0.0 %   0.0 % (1) Expected term represents the estimated period of time until an award is exercised and was determined using the simplified method. (2) Expected volatility for grants issued prior to July 21, 2023 (which is the two-year anniversary of the Company’s IPO) is based on the historical volatility of a selected peer group over a period equivalent to the expected term, and expected volatility for grants issued subsequent to July 21, 2023 is based on historical volatility of the Company’s stock. (3) The risk-free interest rate is an interpolation of yields on U.S. Treasury securities with maturities equivalent to the expected term. (4) We have assumed a dividend yield of zero as the Company has no plans to declare dividends in the foreseeable future.   The weighted average grant date fair values for stock options granted for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 was $0.98 and $1.82, respectively. The following is a summary of stock option activity for the three months ended March 31, 2024:   Shares     Weighted average exercise price     Weighted average remaining life     Intrinsic value (in thousands)   Outstanding Balance as of January 1, 2024   3,080,903     $ 3.40               Granted   338,773     $ 1.36               Exercised   (6,000 )   $ 0.03               Forfeited and expired   (34,006 )   $ 10.17               Balance as of March 31, 2024   3,379,670     $ 3.13       7.8     $ 706   Exercisable at the end of the period   1,430,484     $ 2.73       6.3     $ 706   Vested and expected to vest   3,379,670     $ 3.13       7.8     $ 706   The total intrinsic values of stock options exercised during the three months ended March 31, 2024 was less than $0.1 million. As of March 31, 2024, total unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested stock options was $3.3 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.7 years. Restricted Stock Units In March 2021, the Company’s Board of Directors also approved an amendment to the RSUs granted by Zevia LLC in August 2020 (“the RSU Amendment”). The RSU Amendment changed the vesting of such RSUs to occur as follows: (i) in the event of a change of control, the RSUs shall vest effective as of such change of control or (ii) in the event of an initial public offering as in the case of the IPO, the RSUs shall vest in equal monthly installments over a 36-month period following the termination of any lockup period and shall be subject to the participant’s continued employment through such vesting date. Additionally, settlement shall occur within 30 days following the vesting of the RSUs and the participant shall be entitled to receive one share of Class A common stock for each vested RSU. All other terms remained unchanged. As a result of the RSU Amendment, the estimated fair value of the modified awards was $48.9 million and are being recognized as expense over the vesting period subsequent to the performance condition being met. As of March 31, 2024, the remaining service period of the awards is 10 months. The following is a summary of RSU activity for the three months ended March 31, 2024:   Shares     Weighted average grant date fair value     Aggregate Intrinsic Value (in thousands)   Balance unvested shares at January 1, 2024   2,174,053     $ 3.68         Granted   2,398,765     $ 1.36         Vested   (459,303 )   $ 3.75         Forfeited   (19,905 )   $ 2.90         Balance unvested at March 31, 2024   4,093,610     $ 2.32     $ 4,790   Expected to vest at March 31, 2024   4,093,610     $ 2.32     $ 4,790   As of March 31, 2024, total unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested RSUs was $7.2 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 3.0 years. As of March 31, 2024, there were 309,510 of RSUs outstanding which vested in 2022 but are subjected to a deferred settlement provision over the next year and therefore have not been released. As a result, these RSUs are not included in the table above.

In reaching this conclusion, management considered the definition of the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”); how the business is defined by the CODM; the nature of the information provided to the CODM and how that information is used to make operating decisions; and how resources and performance are assessed. The Company’s CODM is the Chief Executive Officer. The results of the operations are provided to and analyzed by the CODM at the Company’s level and accordingly, key resource decisions and assessment of performance are performed at the Company’s level. The Company has a common management team across all product lines and does not manage these products as individual businesses and as a result, cash flows are not distinct.

LOSS PER SHARE Basic loss per share of Class A common stock is computed by dividing net loss attributable to the Company for the period by the weighted-average number of shares of Class A common stock outstanding during the same period. Diluted loss per share of Class A common stock is computed by dividing net loss attributable to the Company by the weighted-average number of shares of Class A common stock outstanding adjusted to give effect to potentially dilutive securities and assumed conversion of Class B common stock into shares of Class A common stock on a one-for-one basis using the if-converted method.

The Company is taxed as a C corporation and pays corporate federal, state and local taxes with respect to income allocated from Zevia LLC based on Zevia PBC's economic interest in Zevia LLC, which was 80.5% and 75.8% as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. The provision for income taxes differs from the amount of income tax computed by applying the applicable U.S. statutory federal income tax rate of 21% to income before provision of income taxes due to Zevia LLC’s pass-through structure for U.S. income tax purposes, pass-through permanent differences, state franchise taxes, tax effects of stock-based compensation, and the valuation allowance against the deferred tax assets. Except for state franchise taxes, Zevia PBC did not recognize an income tax expense (benefit) on its share of pre-tax book loss, exclusive of the noncontrolling interest of 19.5%, due to the full valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets (“DTAs”). Tax Receivable Agreement The Company expects to obtain an increase in its share of tax basis in the net assets of Zevia LLC when Class B units are exchanged by the holders of Class B units for shares of Class A common stock of the Company and upon certain qualifying transactions. Each change in outstanding shares of Class A common stock of the Company results in a corresponding change in the Company's ownership of Class A units of Zevia LLC. The Company intends to treat any exchanges of Class B units as direct purchases of LLC interests for U.S. federal income tax purposes. These increases in tax basis may reduce the amounts that Zevia PBC would otherwise pay in the future to various taxing authorities. They may also decrease gains (or increase losses) on future dispositions of certain capital assets to the extent tax basis is allocated to those capital assets. In connection with the IPO, the Company entered into a Tax Receivable Agreement (“TRA”) with continuing members of Zevia LLC and the shareholders of blocker companies (“Blocker Companies”) of certain pre-IPO institutional investors (“the Direct Zevia Stockholders”). In the event that such parties exchange any or all of their Class B units for Class A common stock, the TRA requires the Company to make payments to such holders for 85% of the tax benefits realized, or in some cases deemed to be realized, by the Company by such exchange as a result of (i) certain favorable tax attributes acquired from the Blocker Companies in certain mergers (including net operating losses and the Blocker Companies’ allocable share of existing tax basis), (ii) increases in tax basis resulting from Zevia PBC’s acquisition of continuing member’s Zevia LLC units in connection with the IPO and in future exchanges and, (iii) tax basis increases attributable to payments made under the TRA (including tax benefits related to imputed interest). The annual tax benefits are computed by calculating the income taxes due, including such tax benefits, and the income taxes due without such benefits. The Company expects to benefit from the remaining 15% of any tax benefits that it may actually realize. The TRA payments are not conditioned upon any continued ownership interest in Zevia LLC or the Company. To the extent that the Company is unable to timely make payments under the TRA for any reason, such payments generally will be deferred and will accrue interest until paid. The timing and amount of aggregate payments due under the TRA may vary based on a number of factors, including the amount and timing of the taxable income the Company generates each year and the tax rate then applicable. The Company calculates the liability under the TRA using a complex TRA model, which includes an assumption related to the fair market value of assets. Payments are generally due under the TRA within a specified period of time following the filing of the Company’s tax return for the taxable year with respect to which the payment obligation arises, although interest on such payments will begin to accrue at a rate of the Secured Overnight Financing Rate plus 300 basis points from the due date (without extensions) of such tax return. The TRA provides that if (i) certain mergers, asset sales, other forms of business combinations, or other changes of control were to occur; (ii) there is a material uncured breach of any obligations under the TRA; or (iii) the Company elects an early termination of the TRA, then the TRA will terminate and the Company’s obligations, or the Company’s successor’s obligations, under the TRA will accelerate and become due and payable, based on certain assumptions, including an assumption that the Company would have sufficient taxable income to fully utilize all potential future tax benefits that are subject to the TRA and that any Class B units that have not been exchanged are deemed exchanged for the fair market value of the Company’s Class A common stock at the time of termination. As of March 31, 2024, the Company believes based on applicable accounting standards, that it was more likely than not that its DTAs subject to the TRA would not be realized as of March 31, 2024; therefore, the Company has not recorded a liability related to the tax savings it may realize from utilization of such DTAs. The TRA liability that would be recognized if the associated tax benefits were determined to be fully realizable totaled $56.4 million and $56.2 million at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. The increase in the TRA liability is primarily related to Class B to Class A exchanges during the three months ended March 31, 2024. If utilization of the DTAs subject to the TRA becomes more likely than not in the future, the Company will record a liability related to the TRA, which will be recognized as an expense within its condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)	3 Months Ended
	Mar. 31, 2024
Basis of Presentation	Basis of presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial reporting and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, these financial statements do not include all information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements and are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024, or for any other interim period or any other future fiscal year. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2023 included herein was derived from the audited financial statements as of that date but does not include all disclosures, including certain notes, required by U.S. GAAP that are required on an annual reporting basis. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. Therefore, these interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 and accompanying notes included in the Annual Report. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for the fair presentation of the condensed consolidated financial statements for the periods presented have been reflected.
Principles of Consolidation	Principles of Consolidation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiary, Zevia LLC, that it controls due to ownership of a majority equity interest. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company owns a majority economic interest in, and operates and controls all of the businesses and affairs of, Zevia LLC. Accordingly, the Company has prepared these accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 810, Consolidation. On January 1, 2022, the Company and Zevia LLC entered into a service agreement to transfer the services of all employees of the Company to Zevia LLC. Under terms of the service agreement between the entities, the payroll costs of employees are borne by Zevia LLC while certain other non-payroll costs, such as those associated with stock compensation arrangements, remain with the Company. In addition, pursuant to the Thirteenth Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement of Zevia LLC, dated as of July 21, 2021, Zevia LLC shall reimburse the Company for certain expenses for overhead, administrative, and other expenses, at the Company’s discretion. For the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, it was determined that the majority of such costs will be retained by the Company, with certain costs directly attributable to Zevia LLC being borne by that entity. These costs impacted the amount of net loss reported by Zevia LLC and consequently impacted the amount allocated to noncontrolling interest.
Use of estimates	Use of estimates The preparation of the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, as well as the reported amount of net sales and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates made by the Company relate to: net sales and associated cost recognition; the useful lives assigned to and the recoverability of property and equipment; adjustments recorded for inventory obsolescence and adjustments made for net realizable value; the incremental borrowing rate for lease liabilities; allowance for doubtful accounts; the useful lives assigned to and the recoverability of intangible assets; realization of deferred tax assets; and the determination of the fair value of equity instruments, including restricted unit awards, and equity-based compensation awards. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates compared to historical experience and trends, which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of its assets and liabilities.
Recent accounting pronouncements	Recent accounting pronouncements The Company is an emerging growth company, as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act (“JOBS Act”). Under the JOBS Act, emerging growth companies can delay adopting new or revised accounting standards issued subsequent to the enactment of the JOBS Act until those standards apply to private companies. The Company has elected to use this extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until the earlier of the date that it (i) is no longer an emerging growth company or (ii) affirmatively and irrevocably opts out of the extended transition period provided in the JOBS Act. As a result, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with the new or revised accounting pronouncements as of public company effective dates. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements – Not Yet Adopted In November 2023, the FASB issues ASU No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. This ASU requires entities to disclose information about their reportable segments’ significant expenses and other segment items on an interim and annual basis. Public entities with a single reportable segment are required to apply the disclosure requirements in ASU 2023-07, as well as all existing segment disclosures and reconciliation requirements in ASC 280 on an interim and annual basis. ASU 2023-07 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and for interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance. In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09 Income Taxes (Topic 740) Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. The guidance requires disaggregated information about a reporting entity’s effective tax rate reconciliation as well as information on income taxes paid. The guidance is intended to benefit investors by providing more detailed income tax disclosures that would be useful in making capital allocation decisions. The ASU is effective for private companies for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2025, with early adoption permitted. The guidance will be applied on a prospective basis with the option to apply the standard retrospectively. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance. Any other recently issued accounting pronouncements are neither relevant, nor expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
