Black Rifle Energy™ RTD will launch in Q4, offering a clean energy option with BRCC's unique designs, supported by national distribution through our partnership with Keurig Dr Pepper (KDP) for FY25. SALT LAKE CITY, Utah, November 04, 2024 --( BUSINESS WIRE )-- BRC Inc. (NYSE: BRCC, the "Company"), a Veteran-founded, mission-driven premium beverage company, today announced financial results for the third quarter of fiscal year 2024. "The Black Rifle brand continues to perform well, and I’m proud of our progress in gaining market share and improving profitability this quarter," said BRCC Chief Executive Officer Chris Mondzelewski. "This momentum enables us to invest in key growth areas, including the upcoming Q4 launch of Black Rifle Energy™ - a significant addition to our portfolio that expands consumption opportunities and complements our coffee offerings. This quarter, we also announced a strategic partnership with Keurig Dr Pepper (KDP) for the manufacture and distribution of Black Rifle Energy™, positioning us for accelerated growth and a successful national rollout in 2025. As we grow, our mission to support Veterans remains central, ensuring that our success continues to create meaningful impact in the communities we serve." "We’ve made meaningful improvements across several key financial metrics this year, including gross margin, adjusted EBITDA, net income, and free cash flow," said BRCC Chief Financial Officer Steve Kadenacy. "Our third-quarter performance showcases our continued focus on improving operational excellence. Our Wholesale business continues to gain momentum, laying the foundation for growth across multiple product categories and channels over the coming years. We remain on track to have our coffee products in most major grocery chains by the end of 2025, and we are confident that the rollout of our energy drink will open new market opportunities and further accelerate our growth." Third Quarter 2024 Financial Highlights ( in millions, except % data ) Quarter To Date Comparisons 2024 2023 $ Change % Change Net Revenue $ 98.2 $ 100.5 $ (2.3 ) (2 )% Gross Profit $ 41.3 $ 34.1 $ 7.2 21 % Gross Margin 42.1 % 33.9 % Net Loss $ (1.4 ) $ (10.7 ) $ 9.3 Adjusted EBITDA $ 7.1 $ 6.2 $ 0.9 Third Quarter 2024 Results Third quarter 2024 revenue decreased 2.3% to $98.2 million from $100.5 million in the third quarter of 2023. Wholesale revenue increased 3.5% to $63.7 million in the third quarter of 2024 from $61.5 million in the third quarter of 2023. Direct-to-Consumer ("DTC") revenue decreased 11.4% to $29.0 million in the third quarter of 2024 from $32.8 million during the third quarter of 2023. Revenue from Black Rifle Coffee shops ("Outposts") decreased 11.4% to $5.5 million in the third quarter of 2024 from $6.2 million in the third quarter of 2023. The Wholesale channel performance was primarily driven by continued penetration into the Food, Drug and Mass ("FDM") market and growth in our Ready-to-Drink ("RTD") product. RTD product sales increased through national distributors and retail accounts as our All Commodity Volume ("ACV") percentage increased 530 basis points to 47.3%. The decrease in DTC performance was primarily due to lower customer acquisition as we strategically shifted advertising spend to other areas of the business with higher returns. Outpost revenue decreased due to lower transaction volumes. Story Continues Gross profit increased to $41.3 million in the third quarter of 2024 from $34.1 million in the third quarter of 2023, an increase of 21.4% year over year, with gross margin increasing 820 basis points to 42.1% from 33.9% for the third quarter of 2023, driven by product mix shift, productivity improvements in our RTD products, lowering warehousing costs, and favorable changes in inventory reserves. Marketing expenses increased 22.4% to $10.1 million in the third quarter of 2024 from $8.3 million in the third quarter of 2023. As a percentage of revenue, marketing expenses increased 210 basis points to 10.3% in the third quarter of 2024 as compared to 8.2% in the third quarter of 2023 as due to our expansion of partnerships, including our engagement with UFC, higher advertising spend, incremental shopper marketing, and an increase in trade promotions. Salaries, wages and benefits expenses increased 19.0% to $16.5 million in the third quarter of 2024 from $13.9 million in the third quarter of 2023. As a percentage of revenue, salaries, wages and benefits expenses increased 300 basis points to 16.9% in the third quarter of 2024 as compared to 13.8% for the third quarter of 2023. The increase was related to a reduction in incentive compensation in the third quarter of 2023. General and administrative ("G&A") expenses decreased 36.7% to $12.3 million in the third quarter of 2024 from $19.5 million in the third quarter of 2023. As a percentage of revenue, G&A decreased 680 basis points to 12.5% in the third quarter of 2024 as compared to 19.4% in the third quarter of 2023 due to reductions in our corporate infrastructure and support that were inefficient or duplicative, including professional services, information technology, and office space. Net loss for the third quarter of 2024 was $1.4 million and Adjusted EBITDA was $7.1 million. This compares to net loss of $10.7 million and Adjusted EBITDA of $6.2 million in the third quarter of 2023. Financial Outlook BRC Inc. provides guidance based on current market conditions and expectations for revenue, gross margin, adjusted EBITDA, and free cash flow. Adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow are non-GAAP financial measures. For the full-year fiscal 2024, the Company updated its previous guidance as follows: FY2023 FY2024 Guidance (prev. reported) FY2024 Guidance (Updated) Actual Low High Low High Net Revenue (1) $ 395.6 $ 385.0 $ 415.0 $ 390.0 $ 395.0 Growth 31 % (3 )% 5 % (1 )% — Gross Margin 32 % 39 % 42 % 40 % 42 % Adj. EBITDA $ 13.3 $ 32.0 $ 42.0 $ 35.0 $ 40.0 Free Cash Flow Conversion 80% FCF positive for year (1) A barter transaction favorably impacted Net Revenue in 2023 by $28.9 million and projected Net Revenue in 2024 by $15.2 million. Excluding the impact of the barter transaction reduces revenue growth from 2022 to 2023 by 10%. The guidance provided above constitutes forward-looking statements and actual results may differ materially. Refer to the "Forward-Looking Statements" safe harbor section below for information on the factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from these forward-looking statements. We have not reconciled forward-looking (i) Adjusted EBITDA to its most directly comparable GAAP measure, net income (loss), or (ii) Free Cash Flow Conversion to its most directly comparable GAAP measure, net cash provided by (used in) operating activities, in each case in reliance on the unreasonable efforts exception provided under Item 10(e)(1)(i)(B) of Regulation S-K. We cannot predict with reasonable certainty the ultimate outcome of certain components of such reconciliations, including market-related assumptions that are not within our control, or others that may arise, without unreasonable effort. For these reasons, we are unable to assess the probable significance of the unavailable information, which could materially impact the amount of future net income (loss) and net cash provided by operating activities. See "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" for additional important information regarding Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow Conversion.

These measures, as defined below, are not defined or calculated under principles, standards or rules that comprise GAAP. Accordingly, the non-GAAP financial measures we use and refer to should not be viewed as a substitute for performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP or as a substitute for a measure of liquidity. Our definitions of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Free Cash Flow Conversion, and Free Cash Flow described below are specific to our business and you should not assume that they are comparable to similarly titled financial measures of other companies. We define EBITDA as net income (loss) before interest, tax expense, depreciation and amortization expense. We define Adjusted EBITDA, as adjusted for equity-based compensation, system implementation costs, executive, recruiting, relocation and sign-on bonus, write-off of site development costs, strategic initiative related costs, non-routine legal expenses, RTD start-up production issues, contract termination costs, restructuring fees and related costs, RTD transformation costs, and impairment for assets held for sale. When used in conjunction with GAAP financial measures, we believe that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are useful supplemental measures of operating performance and liquidity because these measures facilitate comparisons of historical performance by excluding non-cash items such as equity-based payments and other amounts not directly attributable to our primary operations, such as the impact of system implementation, acquisitions, disposals, litigation and settlements. Adjusted EBITDA is also a key metric used internally by our management to evaluate performance and develop internal budgets and forecasts. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analyzing our results as reported under GAAP and may not provide a complete understanding of our operating results as a whole. Some of these limitations are (i) they do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs, (ii) they do not reflect our interest expense or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on our debt, (iii) they do not reflect our tax expense or the cash requirements to pay our taxes, (iv) they do not reflect historical capital expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments, (v) although equity-based compensation expenses are non-cash charges, we rely on equity compensation to compensate and incentivize employees, directors and certain consultants, and we may continue to do so in the future and (vi) although depreciation, amortization and impairments are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and these non-GAAP measures do not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements. Free Cash Flow is a non-GAAP liquidity measure used by investors, financial analysts and management to help evaluate the Company's ability to generate cash to pursue opportunities that enhance shareholder value. We define Free Cash Flow as net cash provided by (used in) operating activities less cash outflows for purchases of property, plant and equipment. We revised our definition of Free Cash Flow from the definition used in the second quarter of 2024, which was net cash provided by (used in) operating activities less cash outflows for purchases of property, plant and equipment plus proceeds from sale of property and equipment. We believe our updated definition ensures a more accurate reflection of ongoing operational performance by excluding asset sales which are non-recurring and could distort the sustainability of cash flow generation. The impact of the change in our definition of Free Cash Flow reduces Free Cash Flow by the amount of cash inflows due to the sale of assets. We believe the presentation of Free Cash Flow is relevant and useful for investors because it measures cash generated internally that is available to service debt and fund inorganic growth or acquisitions. Free Cash Flow is the cash flow from operations after payment of capital expenditures that we can use to invest in our business and meet our current and future financing needs. We define Free Cash Flow Conversion as Free Cash Flow divided by Adjusted EBITDA. We believe that Free Cash Flow Conversion is useful to the users of our financial statements as it is a measure of the Company's long-term cash flow generating capacity.
