MONSTER BEVERAGE REPORTS 2016 THIRD QUARTER FINANCIAL RESULTS

 

—Third Quarter Net Sales Rise 4.1 percent to $788.0 million;

Third Quarter Diluted Earnings per Share Increase 17.5 percent to $0.99 per share—

 

Corona, CA — November 3, 2016 — Monster Beverage Corporation (NASDAQ:MNST) today reported financial results for the three- and nine-months ended September 30, 2016.

 

Third Quarter Results

 

Net sales for the 2016 third quarter increased 4.1 percent to $788.0 million from $756.6 million in the same period last year. Gross sales for the 2016 third quarter increased 5.9 percent to $913.3 million, from $862.4 million in the same period last year.  The comparative gross and net sales of $862.4 million and $756.6 million, respectively, for the 2015 third quarter were impacted by advance purchases made by the Company’s customers due to a pre-announced price increase, effective August 31, 2015, (“Advance Purchases”), on certain of the Company’s Monster Energy® brand energy drinks.  The Company estimates that gross and net sales for the 2015 third quarter increased by approximately $12.0 million and $11.0 million, respectively, as a result of such Advance Purchases. Gross and net sales for the 2016 third quarter, after adjusting the 2015 third quarter comparatives for Advance Purchases, increased by 7.4 percent and 5.7 percent, respectively. Unfavorable currency exchange rates reduced gross sales by approximately $4.8 million and net sales by approximately $2.6 million in the 2016 third quarter.

 

Net sales for the Company’s Monster Energy® Drinks segment, which is comprised of the Company’s Monster Energy® drinks as well as MutantTM Super Soda, increased 3.4 percent to $710.1 million for the 2016 third quarter, from $686.7 million for the same period last year.  Net sales for the Company’s Strategic Brands segment, which include the various energy drink brands acquired from The Coca-Cola Company, increased 3.2 percent to $72.1 million for the 2016 third quarter, from $69.9 million in the comparable 2015 quarter.  Net sales for the Company’s Other segment, which includes certain products of American Fruits & Flavors sold to independent third parties, were $5.7 million for the 2016 third quarter. There were no net sales for the Other segment for the 2015 third quarter.

 

(more)

 



 

Net sales to customers outside the United States rose to $190.8 million in the 2016 third quarter, from $170.6 million in the corresponding quarter in 2015.

 

Gross profit, as a percentage of net sales, for the 2016 third quarter, increased to 63.8 percent from 61.5 percent for the comparable 2015 third quarter.

 

Operating expenses for the 2016 third quarter were $212.6 million, compared with $174.0 million in the third quarter last year.

 

Distribution costs as a percentage of net sales were 3.1 percent for the 2016 third quarter, compared with 3.5 percent in the third quarter last year.

 

Selling expenses as a percentage of net sales for the 2016 third quarter were 12.1 percent, compared with 10.7 percent in the third quarter last year.

 

General and administrative expenses for the 2016 third quarter were $92.5 million, or 11.7 percent of net sales, compared with $67.0 million, or 8.8 percent of net sales, for the comparable 2015 third quarter. Stock-based compensation (a non-cash item) was $12.1 million for the third quarter of 2016, compared with $8.9 million in the third quarter last year.

 

Operating income for the 2016 third quarter was $290.4 million, compared with $291.4 million in the third quarter of last year.

 

The effective tax rate for the 2016 third quarter was 33.8 percent, compared with 39.4 percent in the same period last year. The decrease in the effective tax rate was due in part to a one-time tax benefit related to a prior period domestic production deduction.

 

Net income for the 2016 third quarter was $191.6 million, compared with $174.6 million in the same period last year.  Net income per diluted share for the 2016 third quarter was $0.99, compared with $0.84 in the third quarter of 2015.

 

Rodney C. Sacks, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said:  “We are pleased to report continued progress on the implementation of our strategic alignment with Coca-Cola bottlers internationally. We transitioned to Coca-Cola bottlers in Chile, Colombia, Mexico, South Africa and certain other countries in Africa during the quarter.  We commenced the launch of Monster Energy® drinks in China beginning with Beijing in September and Shanghai and Hunan Province in October.  Further launches are planned in the fourth quarter and throughout 2017 in China.  We also launched Monster Energy® drinks in Turkey in October.  We commenced the transition to Coca-Cola bottlers in Brazil earlier this week and in the fourth quarter we will be transitioning to Coca-Cola bottlers in certain Central Asian, Latin American, Middle Eastern and African countries, with further launches to follow in 2017.  In the United States, we are continuing to see improvements in our quality of distribution. We launched MutantTM, our new Super Soda, in certain convenience store chains in late September 2016 with encouraging early results.

 

“The continued strength of the U.S. dollar as well as distributor transitions impacted our results,” Sacks added.

Note Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Measures

 

Gross sales is used internally by management as an indicator of and to monitor operating performance, including sales performance of particular products, salesperson performance, product growth or declines and overall Company performance. The use of gross sales allows evaluation of sales performance before the effect of any promotional items, which can mask certain performance issues. We therefore believe that the presentation of gross sales provides a useful measure of our operating performance. Gross sales is not a measure that is recognized under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and should not be considered as an alternative to net sales, which is determined in accordance with GAAP, and should not be used alone as an indicator of operating performance in place of net sales. Additionally, gross sales may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies, as gross sales has been defined by our internal reporting practices. In addition, gross sales may not be realized in the form of cash receipts as promotional payments and allowances may be deducted from payments received from certain customers.

 

Caution Concerning Forward-Looking Statements

 

Certain statements made in this announcement may constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the U.S. federal securities laws, as amended, regarding the expectations of management with respect to our future operating results and other future events including revenues and profitability.  The Company cautions that these statements are based on management’s current knowledge and expectations and are subject to certain risks and uncertainties, many of which are outside of the control of the Company, that could cause actual results and events to differ materially from the statements made herein.  Such risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the following: our ability to recognize benefits from The Coca-Cola Company transaction and the American Fruits & Flavors transaction; our ability to introduce and increase sales of both existing and new products; our ability to implement the share repurchase program; unanticipated litigation concerning the Company’s products; the current uncertainty and volatility in the national and global economy; changes in consumer preferences; changes in demand due to both domestic and

international economic conditions; activities and strategies of competitors, including the introduction of new products and competitive pricing and/or marketing of similar products; actual performance of the parties under the new distribution agreements; potential disruptions arising out of the transition of certain territories to new distributors; changes in sales levels by existing distributors; unanticipated costs incurred in connection with the termination of existing distribution agreements or the transition to new distributors; changes in the price and/or availability of raw materials; other supply issues, including the availability of products and/or suitable production facilities; product distribution and placement decisions by retailers; changes in governmental regulation; the imposition of new and/or increased excise sales and/or other taxes on our products; criticism of energy drinks and/or the energy drink market generally; our ability to satisfy all criteria set forth in any U.S. model energy drink guidelines; the impact of proposals to limit or restrict the sale of energy drinks to minors and/or persons below a specified age and/or restrict the venues and/or the size of containers in which energy drinks can be sold; or political, legislative or other governmental actions or events, including the outcome of any state attorney general, government and/or quasi-government agency inquiries, in one or more regions in which we operate.  For a more detailed discussion of these and other risks that could affect our operating results, see the Company’s reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company’s actual results could differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements.  The Company assumes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
