Forward guidance
The Company currently projects full year 2020 earnings per diluted share to be between $11.70 and $12.70. Depletions and shipments percentage increase of between 27% and 35% of which between 1% and 2% of this growth is due to the addition of the Dogfish Head brands.
Tailwinds

- Gross margin of between 46% and 48%.
- Increased investment in advertising, promotional and selling expenses of between $70 million and $80 million.
- Estimated capital spending of between $180 million and $200 million, which could be higher, if deemed necessary to meet future growth.
Headwinds
- The Company’s actual 2020 earnings per share could vary significantly from the current projection.
- This does not include any changes in freight costs for the shipment of products to the Company’s distributors.
- Non-GAAP effective tax rate of approximately 26%, excluding the impact of ASU 2016-09.
- Because of the uncertainty and variability of the impact of ASU 2016-09, the Company is unable to provide, without unreasonable effort, a reconciliation of these Non-GAAP measures on a forward-looking basis.
- We have been experiencing out of stocks and we expect wholesaler inventories to remain very tight for the rest of the summer.
