Briefing
Reported financial results with revenue growth driven by pricing and strength in Twisted Tea shipments, but experienced a decline in depletions and shipments.
Boston Beer's second quarter results showed a 2.2% increase in net revenue, driven by pricing and Twisted Tea shipments, but depletions decreased by 7% and shipments declined by 1.1%. Net income decreased due to lower gross margins, partially offset by increased revenue and lower operating expenses. The company has reduced its full-year volume and earnings guidance due to a continuing decline in demand in the hard seltzer category.
- Depletions decreased 7% and shipments declined 1.1% compared to the second quarter of 2021.
- Net revenue increased 2.2% to $616.2 million compared to the second quarter of 2021.
- Gross margin decreased to 43.1% from 45.7% in the second quarter of 2021.
- Net income decreased to $53.3 million, or $4.31 per diluted share, from $59.2 million, or $4.75 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2021.

Headwinds
- Depletions and shipments decrease of between 2% and 8% a change from the previous estimate of an increase of between 4% and 10%, the revision is driven by a change in expectations in the Company’s Truly hard seltzer business and the launch timing of Hard Mountain Dew in certain states moving into 2023.
