Retirement Benefits [Abstract]

Employee Retirement Plans and Post-Retirement Medical Benefits

Q. Employee Retirement Plans and Post-Retirement Medical Benefits

The Company has one retirement plan covering substantially all non-union employees; two other retirement plans, one of which covers substantially all union employees, and the other of which covers employees of a specific union which was terminated in 2020; and post-retirement medical benefits covering substantially all union employees.

Non-Union Plans

The Boston Beer Company 401(k) Plan (the “Boston Beer 401(k) Plan”), which was established by the Company in 1993, is a Company-sponsored defined contribution plan that covers a majority of the Company’s non-union employees who are employed by Boston Beer Corporation, American Craft Brewery LLC, A & S Brewing Collaborative LLC, or Angry Orchard Cider Company, LLC. All non-union employees of these entities are eligible to participate in the Plan immediately upon employment. Participants may make voluntary contributions up to 60% of their annual compensation, subject to IRS limitations. The Company matches each participant’s contribution. A maximum of 5% of compensation is taken into account in determining the amount of the match. In January 2020, the Company amended the Boston Beer 401(k) Plan to update the Company match as follows: 100% of the first 3% of the eligible compensation participants contribute. Thereafter, the Company matches 50% of the eligible contribution, up to a maximum of 5%. The Company’s contributions to the Boston Beer 401(k) Plan amounted to $7.4 million, $6.4 million, and $4.0 million in fiscal years 2021, 2020, and 2019, respectively.

As part of the Dogfish Head Transaction, the Company acquired The Dogfish Head 401(k) Plan (the “Dogfish Head 401(k) Plan”), which is a Company-sponsored defined contribution plan that is available to all Dogfish Head employees. Participants may make voluntary contributions up to 60% of their annual compensation, subject to IRS limitations. The Company matches each participant’s contribution. A maximum of 5% of compensation is taken into account in determining the amount of the match. The Company matches 100% of the first 3% of the eligible compensation participants contribute. Thereafter, the Company matches 50% of the eligible contribution. The Company’s contributions to the Dogfish Head 401(k) Plan amounted to $0.3 million in fiscal year 2019. In January 2020, the Dogfish Head 401(k) Plan merged with the Boston Beer 401(k) Plan.

Union Plans

The Samuel Adams Cincinnati Brewery 401(k) Plan for Represented Employees (the “SACB 401(k) Plan”) is a Company-sponsored defined contribution plan. It was established in 1997 and is available to all union employees upon commencement of employment or, if later, attaining age 21. Participants may make voluntary contributions up to 60% of their annual compensation to the SACB 401(k) Plan, subject to IRS limitations. Company contributions for fiscal years 2021 and 2020 were insignificant.

The Samuel Adams Brewery Company, Ltd. Local Union No. 1199 Pension Plan (the “Local 1199 Pension Plan”) was a Company-sponsored defined benefit pension plan. It was established in 1991 and was open to all union employees who are covered by the Company’s collective bargaining agreement with Teamsters Local Union. No. 1199 (“Local Union 1199”), or persons on leave from the Company who are employed by Local Union 1199, and in either case who have completed 12 consecutive months of employment with at least 750 hours worked. The defined benefit is determined based on years of service since July 1991. On April 21, 2019, the Company reached an agreement with the Local Union 1199 to terminate the Local Union No. 1199 Pension Plan effective January 1, 2020 through either lump sum payments or the purchase of third-party annuities. On May 28, 2020, the Company received a positive determination letter for the termination on the plan from the IRS. During 2020, the Company completed the termination of the plan and recorded an expense of $2.0 million as a result of the termination. The Company made contributions of $2.9 million and $0.3 million in fiscal years 2020 and 2019, respectively. As of December 26, 2020, there was no unfunded projected pension benefit.

The Company provides a supplement to eligible retirees from Local 1, Local 20, and Local Union 1199 to assist them with the cost of Medicare gap coverage after their retirement on account of age or permanent disability. To qualify for this benefit (collectively, the “Retiree Medical Plan”), an employee must have worked for at least 20 years for the Company or its predecessor at the Company’s Cincinnati Brewery, must have been enrolled in the Company’s group medical insurance plan for at least 5 years before retirement and, in the case of retirees from Local 20, for at least 7 of the last 10 years of their employment, and must be eligible for Medicare benefits under the Social Security Act. The accumulated post-retirement benefit obligation was determined using a discount rate of 2.86% at December 25, 2021 and 2.50% at December 26, 2020 and a 2.50% health care cost increase based on the Cincinnati Consumer Price Index for the years 2021, 2020, and 2019. The effect of a 1% increase and the effect of a 1% decrease in the assumed health care cost trend rates on the aggregate of the service and interest cost components of net periodic post-retirement health care benefit costs and on the accumulated post-retirement benefit obligation for health care benefits would not be significant.

In addition, the comprehensive medical plan offered to currently employed members of Local 20 remains available to them should they retire after reaching age 57, and before reaching age 65, with at least 20 years of service with the Company or its predecessor at the Company’s Cincinnati Brewery. These eligible retirees may choose to continue to be covered under the Company’s comprehensive group medical plan until they reach the age when they are eligible for Medicare health benefits under the Social Security Act or coverage under a comparable State health benefit plan. Eligible retirees pay 100% of the cost of the coverage.

The funded status of the Retiree Medical Plan is as follows:


	Retiree Medical Plan
	December 25, 2021		December 26, 2020

Benefit obligation at end of fiscal year	$	1,040	$	1,077
Unfunded Status	$	1,040	$	1,077

Slowdown of the Hard Seltzer Market Impact

C. Slowdown of the Hard Seltzer Market Impact

During the year ended December 25, 2021, the market for hard seltzer products experienced decelerating growth trends. The slowdown in growth trends greatly impacted the Company's volume of production and shipments, as well as its financial results and projections for the future. The volume adjustment resulted in several supply chain related costs recorded during the second half of the year.

During the year ended December 25, 2021, the Company recorded excess and obsolete inventory reserves and other inventory related costs totaling $59.5 million related specifically to a decline in future volume projections, inclusive of estimated destruction costs of $6.1 million. The reserves were recorded for inventory that the Company believes will expire, not be used or otherwise offers no net realizable value to the Company based on its current volume and production forecasts. These reserves were recorded for Truly finished goods inventory that is not expected to be sold prior to expiration, Truly packaging, Truly flavorings and other raw materials that are not projected to be used or will expire prior to being used in production. The actual write-offs and costs to destroy the inventory identified as excess and obsolete may vary from this estimate. The inventory related reserves were recorded within cost of goods sold.

The Company has several third-party production agreements in place to meet the expected increased demand for Truly. Due to the volume slowdown, the Company determined that not all of these agreements are needed to meet adjusted demand. Several of these agreements included guaranteed payments and payments for capital expenditures incurred by the third-parties that the Company is still obligated to pay. During the year ended December 25, 2021, the Company recorded contract termination costs totaling $14.8 million, which are recorded within contract termination costs and other, to terminate certain third-party production agreements. Additionally, the Company wrote off $9.5 million of amounts prepaid pursuant to a third-party production agreement that the Company has no future plans to utilize.

Due to the reduction in its production volume projections, the Company evaluated its construction in progress capital projects to determine which assets would generate future economic benefits and concluded that certain projects were impaired. The Company recognized impairment expense of $12.7 million related to projects that will be cancelled due to the volume slowdown. Additionally, the Company recognized a provision of $6.3 million for amounts owed to third-parties under non-cancellable purchase orders for components of the cancelled projects which was recorded within contract termination costs and other for the year ended December 25, 2021.

The combined expense of $102.9 million recognized for the above items contributed to the Company's decline in operating profit for the year ended December 25, 2021. The Company does expect to incur shortfall fees at certain of its ongoing third-party production facilities. These shortfall fees are explained in greater detail within Note K of these financial statements.

Share-based Payment Arrangement [Abstract]

Common Stock and Share-Based Compensation

P. Common Stock and Share-Based Compensation

Class A Common Stock

The Class A Common Stock has no voting rights, except (1) as required by law, (2) for the election of Class A Directors, and (3) that the approval of the holders of the Class A Common Stock is required for (a) certain future authorizations or issuances of additional securities which have rights senior to Class A Common Stock, (b) certain alterations of rights or terms of the Class A or Class B Common Stock as set forth in the Articles of Organization of the Company, (c) other amendments of the Articles of Organization of the Company, (d) certain mergers or consolidations with, or acquisitions of, other entities, and (e) sales or dispositions of any significant portion of the Company’s assets.

Class B Common Stock

The Class B Common Stock has full voting rights, including the right to (1) elect a majority of the members of the Company’s Board of Directors and (2) approve all (a) amendments to the Company’s Articles of Organization, (b) mergers or consolidations with, or acquisitions of, other entities, (c) sales or dispositions of any significant portion of the Company’s assets, and (d) equity-based and other executive compensation and other significant corporate matters. The Company’s Class B Common Stock is not listed for trading. Each share of Class B Common Stock is freely convertible into one share of Class A Common Stock, upon request of any Class B holder, and participates equally in earnings.

All distributions with respect to the Company’s capital stock are restricted by the Company’s credit agreement, with the exception of distributions of capital stock from subsidiaries to The Boston Beer Company, Inc. and Boston Beer Corporation, repurchase from former employees of non-vested investment shares of Class A Common Stock issued under the Company’s equity incentive plan, redemption of certain shares of Class A Common Stock as approved by the Board of Directors and payment of cash dividends to its holders of common stock.

Employee Stock Compensation Plan

The Company’s Employee Equity Incentive Plan (the “Equity Plan”) currently provides for the grant of discretionary options, restricted stock awards and restricted stock units to employees, and provides for shares to be sold to employees of the Company at a discounted purchase price under its investment share program. The Equity Plan is administered by the Board of Directors of the Company, based on recommendations received from the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. The Compensation Committee consists of three independent directors. In determining the quantities and types of awards for grant, the Compensation Committee periodically reviews the objectives of the Company’s compensation system and takes into account the position and responsibilities of the employee being considered, the nature and value to the Company of his or her service and accomplishments, his or her present and potential contributions to the success of the Company, the value of the type of awards to the employee and such other factors as the Compensation Committee deems relevant.

Stock options and related vesting requirements and terms are granted at the Board of Directors’ discretion, but generally vest ratably over three to five-year periods and, with respect to certain options granted to members of senior management, based on the Company’s performance. Generally, the maximum contractual term of stock options is ten years, although the Board of Directors may grant options that exceed the ten-year term. During fiscal years 2021, 2020, and 2019, the Company granted options to purchase 18,998 shares, 21,992 shares, 26,507 shares, respectively, of its Class A Common Stock to employees at market value on the grant dates. Of the total 2021 stock option grants, 10,935 are service-based and vest ratably over a service period of 3 years and 8,063 are performance-based.

During fiscal years 2021, 2020, and 2019, the Company granted 12,867 shares, 33,403 shares, and 22,509 shares, respectively, of restricted stock units to certain senior managers and key employees. All of the 2021 restricted stock unit grants are service-based and vest ratably over service periods of three to five years.

The Equity Plan also has an investment share program which permits employees who have been with the Company for at least one year to purchase shares of Class A Common Stock at a discount from current market value of 0% to 40%, based on the employee’s tenure with the Company. Investment shares vest ratably over service periods of five years. Participants may pay for these shares either up front or through payroll deductions over an eleven-month period during the year of purchase. During fiscal years 2021, 2020, and 2019, employees elected to purchase an aggregate of 4,954 investment shares, 9,127 investment shares, and 7,901 investment shares, respectively.

The Company has reserved 6.7 million shares of Class A Common Stock for issuance pursuant to the Equity Plan, of which 1.0 million shares were available for grant as of December 25, 2021. Shares reserved for issuance under cancelled employee stock options and forfeited restricted stock are returned to the reserve under the Equity Plan for future grants or purchases. The Company also purchases unvested investment shares from employees who have left the Company at the lesser of (i) the price paid for the shares when the employee acquired the shares or (ii) the fair market value of the shares as of the date next preceding the date on which the shares are called for redemption by the Company. These shares are also returned to the reserve under the Equity Plan for future grants or purchases.

Non-Employee Director Options

The Company has a stock option plan for non-employee directors of the Company (the “Non-Employee Director Plan”), pursuant to which each non-employee director of the Company is granted an option to purchase shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock upon election or re-election to the Board of Directors. Stock options issued to non-employee directors vest upon grant and have a maximum contractual term of ten years. During fiscal years 2021, 2020, and 2019 the Company granted options to purchase an aggregate of 1,422 shares, 4,410 shares, and 4,779 shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock to non-employee directors, respectively.

The Company has reserved 0.6 million shares of Class A Common Stock for issuance pursuant to the Non-Employee Director Plan, of which 0.1 million shares were available for grant as of December 25, 2021. Shares under any cancelled non-employee directors’ stock options or options that expire unexercised are returned to the reserve under the Non-Employee Director Plan for future grants.

Option Activity

Information related to stock options under the Equity Plan and the Non-Employee Director Plan is summarized as follows:


	Shares			Weighted- Average Exercise Price		Weighted- Average Remaining Contractual Term in Years		Aggregate Intrinsic Value (in thousands)
Outstanding at December 26, 2020		241,847		$	228.58
Granted		20,420			1,031.01
Exercised		(40,913	)		186.52
Outstanding at December 25, 2021		221,354		$	310.38		5.53	$	54,048
Exercisable at December 25, 2021		98,390		$	228.66		4.78	$	28,199
Vested and expected to vest at December 25, 2021		205,369		$	305.29		5.48	$	50,688

Of the total options outstanding at December 25, 2021, 8,057 shares were performance-based options for which the performance criteria had yet to be achieved and 21,992 shares were performance-based options for which the performance criteria had been met but yet to be approved for vesting by the Board of Directors.

Stock Compensation to Chief Executive Officer

On March 1, 2021, the Company granted its Chief Executive Officer a service-based stock option to purchase 10,935 shares of the Company’s Class A Common stock with a weighted average fair value of $457.25 and exercise price of $1,028.71 per share, which vests through 2026. The Chief Executive Officer was also granted 4,861 restricted stock units with a weighted-average fair value of $1,028.71 per share with service-based vesting through 2026.

Stock-Based Compensation

The following table provides information regarding stock-based compensation expense included in operating expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of comprehensive income:


	2021		2020		2019
	(in thousands)
Amounts included in advertising, promotional and selling expenses	$	5,612	$	4,467	$	3,996
Amounts included in general and administrative expenses		13,003		10,815		8,341
Total stock-based compensation expense	$	18,615	$	15,282	$	12,337
Amounts related to performance-based stock awards included in total stock-based compensation expense	$	3,384	$	2,771	$	1,944

As permitted by ASC 718, the Company uses a lattice model, such as the trinomial option-pricing model, to estimate the fair values of stock options. The Company believes that the Black-Scholes option-pricing model is less effective than the trinomial option-pricing model in valuing long-term options, as it assumes that volatility and interest rates are constant over the life of the option. In addition, the Company believes that the trinomial option-pricing model more accurately reflects the fair value of its stock awards, as it takes into account historical employee exercise patterns based on changes in the Company’s stock price and other relevant variables. The weighted-average fair value of stock options granted in fiscal years 2021, 2020, and 2019 was $456.28, $153.31, and $131.91 per share, respectively, as calculated using a trinomial option-pricing model.

Weighted average assumptions used to estimate fair values of stock options on the date of grants are as follows:


	2021			2020			2019
Expected volatility		36.1	%		32.6	%		32.1	%
Risk-free interest rate		1.45	%		1.09	%		2.63	%
Expected dividends		0	%		0	%		0	%
Exercise factor	2.6 times			2.1 times			2.33 times
Discount for post-vesting restrictions		0.0	%		0.0	%		0.0	%

Expected volatility is based on the Company’s historical realized volatility. The risk-free interest rate represents the implied yields available from the U.S. Treasury zero-coupon yield curve over the contractual term of the option when using the trinomial option-pricing model. Expected dividend yield is 0% because the Company has not paid dividends in the past and currently has no known intention to do so in the future. Exercise factor and discount for post-vesting restrictions are based on the Company’s historical experience.

Fair value of restricted stock awards is based on the Company’s traded stock price on the date of the grants. Fair value of investment shares is calculated using the trinomial option-pricing model.

The Company uses the straight-line attribution method in recognizing stock-based compensation expense for awards that vest based on service conditions. For awards that vest subject to performance conditions, compensation expense is recognized ratably for each tranche of the award over the performance period if it is probable that performance conditions will be met.

The Company recognizes compensation expense, less estimated forfeitures of 13.0%. The forfeiture rate is based upon historical experience and the Company periodically reviews this rate to ensure proper projection of future forfeitures.

The total fair value of options vested during fiscal years 2021, 2020, and 2019 was $6.3 million, $4.8 million, and $2.5 million, respectively. The aggregate intrinsic value of stock options exercised during fiscal years 2021, 2020, and 2019 was $28.9 million, $45.9 million, and $20.9 million, respectively.

Based on equity awards outstanding as of December 25, 2021, there is $31.0 million of unrecognized compensation costs, net of estimated forfeitures, related to unvested share-based compensation arrangements that are expected to vest. Such costs are expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.0 years.

Non-Vested Shares Activity

The following table summarizes vesting activities of shares issued under the investment share program and restricted stock awards:


	Number of Shares			Weighted Average Fair Value
Non-vested at December 26, 2020		114,316		$	263.47
Granted		17,821			877.10
Vested		(42,038	)		227.40
Forfeited		(1,251	)		458.28
Non-vested at December 25, 2021		88,848		$	401.70

42,038 shares vested in 2021 with a weighted average fair value of $227.40, 45,860 shares vested in 2020 with a weighted average fair value of $214.23, and 33,205 shares vested in 2019 with a weighted average fair value of $188.63.

Stock Repurchase Program

In 1998, the Board of Directors authorized management to implement a stock repurchase program. As of December 25, 2021, the Company has repurchased a cumulative total of approximately 13.8 million. There were no stock repurchases during fiscal years 2021, 2020 or 2019.

Dogfish Head Brewery Transaction

On May 8, 2019, the Company entered into definitive agreements to acquire through the acquisition of all of the equity interests held by certain private entities in Off-Centered Way LLC, the parent holding company of the Dogfish Head operations (the "Dogfish Head Transaction"). The Dogfish Head Transaction closed on July 3, 2019, for total consideration of $336.0 million consisting of $173.0 million in cash and 429,291 shares of restricted Class A Common Stock that had an aggregate market value as of July 3, 2019 of $163.0 million, after taking into account a post-closing cash related adjustment. As required under the definitive agreements, 127,146 of the 429,291 shares of restricted Class A Stock have been placed in escrow and will be released no later than July 3, 2029. These shares had a market value on July 3, 2019 of $48.3 million. The timing of the release of these escrowed shares is primarily related to the continued employment with the Company of Samuel A. Calagione III, one of the two Dogfish Head founders.

Debt Disclosure [Abstract]

Revolving Line of Credit

L. Revolving Line of Credit

The Company has a credit facility in place that provides for a $150.0 million revolving line of credit which has a term not scheduled to expire until March 31, 2023. The Company may elect an interest rate for borrowings under the credit facility based on either (i) the Alternative Prime Rate (3.25% at December 25, 2021) or (ii) the applicable LIBOR rate (0.09% at December 25, 2021) plus 0.45%. The Company incurs an annual commitment fee of 0.15% on the unused portion of the facility and is obligated to meet certain financial covenants, which are measured using earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) based ratios. The Company’s EBITDA to interest expense ratio was 927.00 as of December 25, 2021, compared to a minimum allowable ratio of 2.00 and the Company’s total funded debt to EBITDA ratio was 0.01 as of December 25, 2021, compared to a maximum allowable ratio of 2.50. During the fifty-two weeks ended December 26, 2020, the Company borrowed and repaid $100.0 million on the credit facility and paid a total of $0.2 million in related interest. There were no borrowings outstanding under the credit facility as of December 25, 2021.

There are also certain restrictive covenants set forth in the credit agreement. Pursuant to the negative covenants, the Company has agreed that it will not: enter into any indebtedness or guarantees other than those specified by the lender, enter into any sale and leaseback transactions, merge, consolidate, or dispose of significant assets without the lender’s prior written consent, make or maintain any investments other than those permitted in the credit agreement, or enter into any transactions with affiliates outside of the ordinary course of business. In addition, the credit agreement requires the Company to obtain prior written consent from the lender on distributions on account of, or in repurchase, retirement or purchase of its capital stock or

other equity interests with the exception of the following: (a) distributions of capital stock from subsidiaries to The Boston Beer Company, Inc. and Boston Beer Corporation (a subsidiary of The Boston Beer Company, Inc.), (b) repurchase from former employees of non-vested investment shares of Class A Common Stock, issued under the Employee Equity Incentive Plan, and (c) redemption of shares of Class A Common Stock as approved by the Board of Directors and payment of cash dividends to its holders of common stock. Borrowings under the credit facility may be used for working capital, capital expenditures and general corporate purposes of the Company and its subsidiaries. In the event of a default that has not been cured, the credit facility would terminate and any unpaid principal and accrued interest would become due and payable.

- Definition

The entire disclosure for information about short-term and long-term debt arrangements, which includes amounts of borrowings under each line of credit, note payable, commercial paper issue, bonds indenture, debenture issue, own-share lending arrangements and any other contractual agreement to repay funds, and about the underlying arrangements, rationale for a classification as long-term, including repayment terms, interest rates, collateral provided, restrictions on use of assets and activities, whether or not in compliance with debt covenants, and other matters important to users of the financial statements, such as the effects of refinancing and noncompliance with debt covenants.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

B. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Fiscal Year

The Company’s fiscal year is a fifty-two or fifty-three-week period ending on the last Saturday in December. The 2021, 2020 and 2019 fiscal years all consisted of fifty-two weeks.

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries, all of which are wholly-owned. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

COVID-19

The Company began seeing the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on its business in early March 2020. The direct financial impact of the pandemic primarily included significantly reduced keg demand from the on-premise channel and higher labor and safety-related costs at the Company’s breweries. In addition to these direct financial impacts, COVID-19 related safety measures resulted in a reduction of brewery productivity. In fiscal year 2020, the Company recorded COVID-19 related pre-tax reductions in net revenue and increases in other costs that total $16.0 million. In 2021 and going forward, the Company will not report COVID-19 related direct costs separately as they are viewed to be a normal part of operations.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents at December 25, 2021 and December 26, 2020 included cash on-hand and money market instruments that are highly liquid investments. Cash and cash equivalents are carried at cost, which approximates fair value.

Restricted Cash

At December 25, 2021 restricted cash included money received from a distributor pursuant to an indemnification agreement to consolidate distribution rights in a region in accordance with state regulations. Restricted cash is carried at cost, which approximates fair value.

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

The Company’s accounts receivable primarily consist of trade receivables. The Company records an allowance for doubtful accounts that is based on historical trends, customer knowledge, any known disputes, and the aging of the accounts receivable balances combined with management’s estimate of future potential recoverability. Receivables are written off against the allowance after all attempts to collect a receivable have failed. The Company believes its allowance for doubtful accounts as of December 25, 2021 and December 26, 2020 are adequate, but actual write-offs could exceed the recorded allowance.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash equivalents, restricted cash, and trade receivables. The Company places its cash equivalents and restricted cash with high credit quality financial institutions. As of December 25, 2021, the Company’s cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash were invested in investment-grade, highly liquid U.S. government agency corporate money market accounts.

The Company sells primarily to a network of independent wholesalers in the United States and to a network of foreign wholesalers, importers or other agencies (collectively referred to as “Distributors”). In 2021, 2020 and 2019, sales to foreign Distributors were approximately 4% of total sales. Receivables arising from these sales are not collateralized; however, credit risk is minimized as a result of the large and diverse nature of the Company’s customer base. There were no individual customer accounts receivable balances outstanding at December 25, 2021 or December 26, 2020 that were in excess of 10% of the gross accounts receivable balance on those dates. No individual customers represented more than 10% of the Company’s revenues in fiscal years 2021, 2020, or 2019.

Financial Instruments and Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company’s primary financial instruments at December 25, 2021 and December 26, 2020 consisted of cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, and accounts payable. The Company determines the fair value of its financial assets and liabilities in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”). The Company believes that the carrying amount of its cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, and accounts payable approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of these assets and liabilities. The Company is not exposed to significant interest, currency or credit risks arising from these financial assets and liabilities.

Inventories and Provision for Excess or Expired Inventory

Inventories consist of raw and packaging materials, work in process and finished goods. Raw materials, which principally consist of hops, malt, apple juice, other brewing materials and packaging, are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out basis) or net realizable value. The Company’s goal is to maintain on-hand a supply of approximately two years for essential hop varieties, in order to limit the risk of an unexpected reduction in supply. Inventories are generally classified as current assets. The Company classifies hops inventory in excess of two years of forecasted usage in other long-term assets. The cost elements of work in process and finished goods inventory consist of raw materials, direct labor and manufacturing overhead. Packaging design costs are expensed as incurred. The Company enters into multi-year purchase commitments in order to secure adequate supply of ingredients and packaging, to brew and package its products. Inventory on hand totaled $161.8 million at December 25, 2021.

The provisions for excess or expired inventory are based on management’s estimates of forecasted usage of inventories on hand. Forecasting usage involves significant judgments regarding future demand for the Company’s various existing products and products under development as well as the potency and shelf-life of various raw material ingredients and finished goods. A significant change in the timing or level of demand for certain products as compared to forecasted amounts may result in recording additional provisions for excess or expired inventory in the future. Provision for excess or expired inventory included in cost of goods sold was $62.6 million, $11.3 million, and $8.1 million in fiscal years 2021, 2020, and 2019 respectively.

Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant, and equipment are stated at cost or fair value as of the date of acquisition. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. Major renewals and betterments that extend the life of the property are capitalized. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method based upon the estimated useful lives of the underlying assets as follows:


Kegs	5 years

Computer software and equipment	2 to 5 years

Office equipment and furniture	3 to 7 years

Machinery and plant equipment	3 to 20 years, or the term of the production agreement, whichever is shorter

Leasehold improvements	Lesser of the remaining term of the lease or estimated useful life of the asset

Building and building improvements	12 to 20 years, or the remaining useful life of the building, whichever is shorter

For purposes of determining whether there are any impairment losses, as further discussed below, management has historically examined the carrying value of the Company’s identifiable long-lived assets, including their useful lives, semi-annually, or more frequently when indicators of impairment are present. Evaluations of whether indicators of impairment exist involve judgments regarding the current and future business environment and the length of time the Company intends to use the asset. If an impairment loss is identified based on the fair value of the asset, as compared to the carrying value of the asset, such loss would be charged to expense in the period the impairment is identified. Furthermore, if the review of the carrying values of the long-lived assets indicates impairment of such assets, the Company may determine that shorter estimated useful lives are more appropriate. In that event, the Company will be required to record additional depreciation in future periods, which will reduce earnings. Estimating the amount of impairment, if any, requires significant judgments including identification of potential impairments, market comparison to similar assets, estimated cash flows to be generated by the asset, discount rates, the remaining useful life of the asset, and the usefulness of the asset in consideration of future business plans. Impairment of assets included in operating expenses was $18.5 million, $4.4 million and $0.9 million in fiscal years 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Factors generally considered important which could trigger an impairment review on the carrying value of long-lived assets include the following: (1) significant underperformance relative to historical or projected future operating results; (2) significant changes in the manner of use of acquired assets or the strategy for the Company’s overall business; (3) underutilization of assets; and (4) discontinuance of products by the Company or its customers.

Segment Reporting

The Company consists of one operating segment that produces and sells alcohol beverages under the Company’s Truly Hard Seltzer, Twisted Tea, Samuel Adams, Angry Orchard, Dogfish Head, Angel City, Coney Island, and Concrete Beach, brands. All brands are predominantly beverages that are manufactured using similar production processes, have comparable alcohol content, generally fall under the same regulatory environment, and are sold to the same types of customers in similar size quantities at similar price points, with similar profit margins, and through the same channels of distribution.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

The Company has recorded intangible assets with indefinite lives and goodwill for which impairment testing is required at least annually or more frequently if events or circumstances indicate that these assets might be impaired. The Company performs its annual impairment tests and re-evaluates the useful lives of other intangible assets with indefinite lives at the annual impairment test measurement date in the third quarter of each fiscal year or when circumstances arise that indicate a possible impairment or change in useful life might exist.

The Company’s annual goodwill impairment evaluation analysis conducted at the end of fiscal August indicated that the fair value of the Company’s goodwill was substantially greater than the carrying value and there was no impairment to record during 2021. The guidance for goodwill impairment testing allows an entity to assess qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances leads to a determination that it is more likely than not that the estimated fair

value of a reporting unit, of which the Company has one, is less than its carrying amount or to proceed directly to performing a quantitative impairment test. Under the quantitative assessment, the estimated fair value of the Company’s reporting unit is compared to its carrying value, including goodwill. The estimate of fair value of the Company’s reporting unit is generally calculated based on an income approach using the discounted cash flow method supplemented by the market approach which considers the Company’s market capitalization and enterprise value. If the estimated fair value of the Company’s reporting unit is less than the carrying value of its reporting unit, a goodwill impairment will be recognized. In estimating the fair value of the Company’s reporting unit, management must make assumptions and projections regarding such items as future cash flows, future revenues, future earnings, cost of capital, and other factors. The assumptions used in the estimate of fair value are based on historical trends and the projections and assumptions that are used in the latest operating plans. These assumptions reflect management’s estimates of future economic and competitive conditions and are, therefore, subject to change as a result of changing market conditions. If these estimates or their related assumptions change in the future, the Company may be required to recognize an impairment loss for the Company’s goodwill which could have a material adverse impact on the Company’s financial statements.

The Company’s annual intangible asset impairment evaluation analysis conducted at the end of fiscal August indicated that the fair value of the intangible assets was greater than the carrying value and there was no impairment to record during 2021. The Company’s intangible assets consist primarily of a trademark and customer relationships obtained through the Company’s Dogfish Head acquisition. Customer relationships are amortized over their estimated useful lives. The Dogfish Head trademark which was determined to have an indefinite useful life is not amortized. The guidance for indefinite lived intangible asset impairment testing allows an entity to assess qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances indicates that it is more likely than not that the indefinite lived intangible asset is impaired or to proceed directly to performing the quantitative impairment test. Under the quantitative assessment, the trademark is evaluated for impairment by comparing the carrying value of the trademark to its estimated fair value. The estimated fair value of the trademark is calculated based on an income approach using the relief from royalty method. If the estimated fair value is less than the carrying value of the trademark, then an impairment charge is recognized to reduce the carrying value of the trademark to its estimated fair value.

Significant judgement is required to estimate the fair value the Dogfish Head trademark. Accordingly, the Company obtains the assistance of third-party valuation specialists as part of the impairment evaluation. In estimating the fair value of the trademark, management must make assumptions and projections regarding future cash flows based upon future revenues, the market-based royalty rate, the discount rate, the tax rate and other factors. These assumptions reflect management’s estimates of future economic and competitive conditions and consider many factors including macroeconomic conditions, industry growth rates, competitive activities, as well as the impact the COVID-19 pandemic has had on the Company. The assumptions and projections used in the estimate of fair value are consistent with historical trends and those used in current operating plans and the Company believes they are reasonable and comparable to those that would be used by other marketplace participants.

Refundable Deposits on Kegs and Pallets

The Company distributes its packaged hard seltzer, beer and hard cider primarily in cans and glass bottles and its draft beer in kegs and such cans, bottles, and kegs are shipped on pallets to Distributors. Most kegs and pallets are owned by the Company. Kegs are reflected in the Company’s balance sheets at cost and are depreciated over the estimated useful life of the keg, while pallets are expensed upon purchase. Upon shipment of beer to Distributors, the Company collects a refundable deposit on the kegs and certain pallets, which is included in current liabilities in the Company’s balance sheets. Upon return of the kegs and pallets to the Company, the deposit is refunded to the Distributor.

The Company has experienced some loss of kegs and pallets and anticipates that some loss will occur in future periods due to the significant volume of kegs and pallets handled by each Distributor and retailer, the homogeneous nature of kegs and pallets owned by most brewers, and the relatively small deposit collected for each keg when compared with its market value. The Company believes that this is an industry-wide issue and that the Company’s loss experience is not atypical. The Company believes that the loss of kegs and pallets, after considering the forfeiture of related deposits, has not been material to the financial statements. The Company uses internal records, records maintained by Distributors, records maintained by other third-party vendors and historical information to estimate the physical count of kegs and pallets held by Distributors. These estimates affect the amount recorded as property, plant and equipment and current liabilities as of the date of the financial statements. The actual liability for refundable deposits could differ from these estimates. For the year ended December 25, 2021, the Company decreased its liability for refundable deposits, gross property, plant and equipment and related accumulated depreciation by $0.5 million, $0.9 million and $0.9 million, respectively. For the year ended December 26, 2020, the Company decreased its liability for refundable deposits, gross property, plant and equipment and related accumulated depreciation by $0.4 million, $0.8 million and $0.8 million, respectively. As of December 25, 2021, and

December 26, 2020, the Company’s balance sheet includes $13.4 million and $15.5 million, respectively, in refundable deposits on kegs and pallets and $0.2 million and $0.3 million, respectively, in kegs, net of accumulated depreciation.

Income Taxes

The Company provides for deferred taxes using an asset and liability approach that requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the Company’s consolidated financial statements or tax returns. This results in differences between the book and tax basis of the Company’s assets, liabilities and carry-forwards, such as tax credits. In estimating future tax consequences, all expected future events, other than enactment of changes in the tax laws or rates, are generally considered. Valuation allowances are provided when recovery of deferred tax assets does not meet the more likely than not standards as defined in ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes.

The calculation of the Company’s tax liabilities involves dealing with uncertainties in the application of tax regulations in several different state tax jurisdictions. The Company is periodically reviewed by tax authorities regarding the amount of taxes due. These reviews include inquiries regarding the timing and amount of deductions and the allocation of income among various tax jurisdictions. The Company records estimated reserves for exposures associated with positions that it takes on its income tax returns that do not meet the more likely than not standards as defined in ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes.

Revenue Recognition and Classification of Customer Programs and Incentives

During fiscal years 2021, 2020 and 2019 approximately 95% of the Company’s revenue was from shipments of its products to domestic Distributors and 4% from shipments to international Distributors, primarily located in Canada. Less than 1% of the Company’s revenue is from retail beer, cider, food and merchandise sales at the Company’s retail locations.

The Company recognizes revenue when obligations under the terms of a contract with its customer are satisfied; generally, this occurs with the transfer of control of its products. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration expected to be received in exchange for transferring products. If the conditions for revenue recognition are not met, the Company defers the revenue until all conditions are met. As of December 25, 2021, and December 26, 2020, the Company had deferred revenue of $8.0 million and $13.5 million, respectively, related to product shipped prior to these dates. These amounts are included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

The Company is committed to maintaining the freshness of its products in the market. In certain circumstances and with the Company’s approval, the Company accepts and destroys stale beer that is returned by Distributors. The Company generally credits approximately fifty percent of the distributor’s cost of beer that has passed its freshness expiration date when it is returned to the Company or destroyed. The Company reduces revenue and establishes an accrual based upon both historical returns, which is applied to an estimated lag time for receipt of product, and knowledge of specific return transactions. Estimating this reserve involves significant judgments and estimates, including comparability of historical return trends to future trends, lag time from date of sale to date of return, and product mix of returns. Stale beer expense is reflected in the accompanying financial statements as a reduction of revenue. Historically, the cost of actual stale beer returns has been in line with established reserves; however, the cost could differ materially from the reserves which would impact revenue. As of December 25, 2021, and December 26, 2020, the stale beer reserve was $6.0 million and $3.1 million, respectively. These amounts are included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Provision for stale beer recorded as reductions to revenue totaled $9.5 million, $8.4 million, and $4.4 million in fiscal years 2021, 2020, and 2019 respectively.

Customer programs and incentives are a common practice in the alcohol beverage industry. Amounts paid in connection with customer programs and incentives are recorded as reductions to net revenue or as advertising, promotional and selling expenses, based on the nature of the expenditure. Customer incentives and other payments made to Distributors are primarily based upon the performance of certain marketing and advertising activities. Depending on applicable state laws and regulations, these activities promoting the Company’s products may include, but are not limited to, point-of-sale and merchandise placement, samples, product displays, promotional programs at retail locations and meals, travel and entertainment. Amounts paid to customers in connection with these programs that were recorded as reductions to net revenue or as advertising, promotional and selling expenses totaled $126.1 million, $85.0 million and $75.2 million in fiscal years 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Estimates are based on historical and projected experience for each type of program or customer and have historically been in line with actual costs incurred.

Customer promotional discount programs are entered into with Distributors for certain periods of time. Amounts paid to Distributors in connection with these programs in fiscal years 2021, 2020 and 2019 were $72.7 million, $59.3 million and $43.9 million, respectively. The reimbursements for discounts to Distributors are recorded as reductions to net revenue. The

agreed-upon discount rates are applied to certain Distributors’ sales to retailers, based on volume metrics, in order to determine the total discounted amount. The computation of the discount allowance requires that management make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the timing and amounts of revenue and liabilities recorded. Actual promotional discounts owed and paid have historically been in line with allowances recorded by the Company; however, the amounts could differ from the estimated allowances.

Customer incentives and other payments are made primarily to Distributors based upon the performance of certain marketing and advertising activities. Depending on applicable state laws and regulations, these activities promoting the Company’s products may include, but are not limited to point-of-sale and merchandise placement, samples, product displays, promotional programs at retail locations and meals, travel and entertainment. Amounts paid to customers in connection with these programs in fiscal years 2021, 2020 and 2019 were $53.4 million, $25.7 million and $31.3 million, respectively. In fiscal years 2021, 2020 and 2019, the Company recorded certain of these costs in the total amount of $42.0 million, $23.1 million and $21.6. million, respectively as reductions to net revenue. Costs recognized in net revenues include, but are not limited to, promotional discounts, sales incentives and certain other promotional activities. Costs recognized in advertising, promotional and selling expenses include point of sale materials, samples and media advertising expenditures in local markets. These costs are recorded as incurred, generally when invoices are received; however certain estimates are required at the period end. Estimates are based on historical and projected experience for each type of program or customer and have historically been in line with actual costs incurred.

In connection with its preparation of financial statements and other financial reporting, management is required to make certain estimates and assumptions regarding the amount, timing and classification of expenditures resulting from these activities. Actual expenditures incurred could differ from management’s estimates and assumptions.

Excise Taxes

The Company is responsible for compliance with TTB regulations, including making timely and accurate excise tax payments. The Company is subject to periodic compliance audits by the TTB. Individual states also impose excise taxes on alcohol beverages in varying amounts. The Company calculates its excise tax expense based upon units shipped and on its understanding of the applicable excise tax laws.

Cost of Goods Sold

The following expenses are included in cost of goods sold: raw material costs, packaging material costs, costs and income related to deposit activity, purchasing and receiving costs, manufacturing labor and overhead, brewing and processing costs, inspection costs relating to quality control, inbound freight charges, depreciation expense related to manufacturing equipment and warehousing costs, which include rent, labor and overhead costs.

Shipping Costs

Costs incurred for the shipping of products to customers are included in advertising, promotional and selling expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of comprehensive income. The Company incurred shipping costs of $166.6 million, $97.6 million, and $69.1 million in fiscal years 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Advertising, Promotional, and Selling Expense

The following expenses are included in advertising, promotional and selling expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of comprehensive income: media advertising and production costs, sales and brand related expenses, sales and brand salary and benefit expenses, stock compensation, meals, travel and entertainment expenses, promotional activity expenses, shipping costs related to shipments of finished goods from manufacturing locations to distributor locations and point-of-sale items. Total advertising and sales promotional expenditures of $291.3 million, $211.2 million, and $177.2 million were included in advertising, promotional and selling expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of comprehensive income for fiscal years 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

The Company conducts certain advertising and promotional activities in its Distributors’ markets and the Distributors make contributions to the Company for such efforts. Reimbursements from Distributors for advertising and promotional activities are recorded as reductions to advertising, promotional and selling expenses.

General and Administrative Expenses

The following expenses are included in general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of comprehensive income: general and administrative salary and benefit expenses, stock compensation, insurance costs, consulting and professional service fees, rent and utility expenses, meals, travel and entertainment expenses for general and administrative employees, and other general and administrative overhead costs.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company accounts for share-based awards in accordance with ASC Topic 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”), which generally requires recognition of share-based compensation costs in financial statements based on fair value. Compensation cost is recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide services in exchange for the award (the requisite service period). The amount of compensation cost recognized in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income is based on the awards ultimately expected to vest, and therefore, reduced for estimated forfeitures. Stock-based compensation was $18.6 million, $15.3 million and $12.3 million in fiscal years 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

As permitted by ASC 718, the Company elected to use a lattice model, such as the trinomial option-pricing model, to estimate the fair values of stock options. All option-pricing models require the input of subjective assumptions. These assumptions include the estimated volatility of the Company’s common stock price over the expected term, the expected dividend rate, the estimated post-vesting forfeiture rate, the risk-free interest rate and expected exercise behavior. See Note Q for further discussion of the application of the option-pricing models.

In addition, an estimated pre-vesting forfeiture rate is applied in the recognition of the compensation charge. Periodically, the Company grants performance-based stock options. The Company only recognizes compensation expense with respect to these options if it is probable that the performance targets will be met. Consequently, at the end of each reporting period, the Company estimates whether it is probable that performance targets will be met. Changes in the subjective assumptions and estimates can materially affect the amount of stock-based compensation expense recognized in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income.

Net Income Per Share

Basic net income per share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted-average common shares outstanding. Diluted net income per share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted-average common shares and potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method or the two-class method, whichever is more dilutive.

Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. The standard includes multiple key provisions, including removal of certain exceptions to ASC 740, Income Taxes, and simplification in several other areas such as accounting for a franchise tax (or similar tax) that is partially based on income. ASU 2019-12 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted the standard in the first quarter of fiscal 2021 and recorded an adjustment of $0.1 million to retained earnings.

Shares of Class B are convertible at any time into shares of Class A on a one-for-one basis at the option of the stockholder.

Weighted average stock options to purchase approximately 17,000, and 23,000 shares of Class A Common Stock were outstanding during fiscal 2021 and 2019, respectively, but not included in computing diluted income per share because their effects were anti-dilutive. No stock options were excluded during fiscal 2020. Additionally, 1,000 performance awards during fiscal 2021 and performance-based stock options to purchase 10,000 shares of Class A Common Stock during fiscal 2019 were outstanding but not included in computing dilutive income per share because the performance criteria of these stock options were not met as fiscal year end No performance awards or performance-based stock options were excluded during fiscal 2020.

Third Party Production Prepayments

J. Third-Party Production Prepayments

For fiscal years 2021, 2020 and 2019 the Company brewed and packaged approximately 56%, 65%, and 74%, respectively, of its volume at Company-owned breweries. The Company brewed and packaged approximately 32%, 33% and 23% of its volume across various City Brewing Company, LLC locations for fiscal 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively. In the normal course of its business, the Company has historically entered into various production arrangements with other brewing companies. Pursuant to these arrangements, the Company generally supplies raw materials and packaging to those brewing companies, and incurs conversion fees for labor at the time the liquid is produced and packaged. The Company has made payments for capital improvements at these third-party brewing facilities that it expenses over the period of the contracts. Total third-party production prepayments were as follows:


	December 25, 2021		December 26, 2020
	(in thousands)
Prepaid expenses and other current assets	$	-	$	14,816
Third-party production prepayments		88,294		56,843
Total third-party production prepayments	$	88,294	$	71,659

Effective March 27, 2021, the Company began classifying third-party production prepayments solely as non-current assets and reclassified the $14.8 million of third-party production prepayments at December 26, 2020 from current assets to non-current assets. The Company will expense the total prepaid amount of $88.3 million as of December 25, 2021 as a component of cost of goods sold over the contractual period ending December 31, 2025.

During the fifty-two weeks ended December 25, 2021, as a result of lower than anticipated demand for certain Truly brand styles and packages, the Company adjusted its volume plans for production at certain third-party facilities. The Company terminated relationships with some of its third-party production suppliers and recorded $19.6 million of costs related to terminating these contracts. In addition, the Company wrote off $9.5 million of amounts prepaid pursuant to a third-party production agreement that the Company has no future plans to utilize. Refer to Note C of these consolidated financial statements for further details.

During the fifty-two weeks ended December 25, 2021, the Company entered into a master transaction agreement with City Brewing Company, LLC to ensure access to capacity at a new location and continued access at certain existing locations. The agreement became effective during the second quarter of fiscal year 2021, upon the closing of the purchase of the new location by the third-party brewing services provider. As part of the master transaction agreement, the Company paid $10.0

million for capital improvements at the new location during the third quarter of fiscal year 2021. The Company paid an additional $17.9 million to ensure access to capacity during the fourth quarter of 2021. The agreement additionally includes monthly shortfall fees beginning January 1, 2023.

At current production volume projections, the Company believes that it will fall short of its future annual volume commitments at certain third-party production facilities, including those that are part of the master transaction agreement described above, and will incur shortfall fees. The Company will expense the shortfall fees during the contractual period when such fees are incurred as a component of cost of goods sold. As of December 25, 2021, if volume for the remaining term of the production arrangements was zero, the contractual shortfall fees would total approximately $210 million over the duration of the contracts which have expiration dates through December 31, 2031. In lieu of contractual shortfall fees, the Company terminated certain of its third-party production contracts for $7.1 million, with those costs recognized in contract terminations costs and other for the year ended December 25, 2021. At current volume projections the Company anticipates that it will recognize approximately $38 million of shortfall fees and expects to record those expenses as follows over the remaining current year and the five subsequent years:

The Company’s policy is to classify interest and penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense. Interest and penalties included in the provision for income taxes amounted to $0 in each of the fiscal years 2021, 2020, and 2019.

Accrued interest and penalties amounted to $0.2 million and $0.2 million at December 25, 2021 and December 26, 2020, respectively.

A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of unrecognized tax benefits is as follows:


	2021			2020
	(in thousands)
Balance at beginning of year	$	812		$	811
Increases related to current year tax positions		59			—
Increases related to prior year tax positions		36			13
Decreases related to lapse of statute of limitations		(675	)		(12	)
Balance at end of year	$	232		$	812

Included in the balance of unrecognized tax benefits at December 25, 2021 and December 26, 2020 are potential net benefits of $0.2 million and $0.8 million, respectively, that would favorably impact the effective tax rate if recognized. Unrecognized tax benefits are included in accrued expenses in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and adjusted in the period in which new information about a tax position becomes available or the final outcome differs from the amount recorded.

As of December 25, 2021, the Company’s 2018, 2019, and 2020 federal income tax returns remain subject to examination by IRS. The Company’s state income tax returns remain subject to examination for three or four years depending on the state’s statute of limitations. In addition, the Company is generally obligated to report changes in taxable income arising from federal income tax audits. The Company is not currently under any income tax audits as of December 25, 2021.

It is reasonably possible that the Company’s unrecognized tax benefits may increase or decrease in 2021 if there are changes as a result of potential income tax audits; however, the Company cannot estimate the range of such possible changes. The Company does not expect that any potential changes would have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

As of December 25, 2021, the Company’s deferred tax assets included a capital loss carryforward totaling $0.9 million, which is expected to expire before being utilized. The Company has included a valuation allowance against this loss carryforward.

The Company’s accounting policy for inventory and non-cancellable purchase commitments is to recognize a loss by establishing a reserve to the extent inventory levels and commitments exceed forecasted needs. The computation of the excess inventory requires management to make certain assumptions regarding future sales growth, product mix, cancellation costs and supply, among others. Actual results may differ materially from management’s estimates. The Company continues to manage inventory levels and purchase commitments in an effort to maximize utilization. However, changes in management’s assumptions regarding future sales growth, product mix and hops market conditions could result in future material losses.

The Company utilizes several varieties of hops in the production of its products. To ensure adequate supplies of these varieties, the Company enters into advance multi-year purchase commitments based on forecasted future hop requirements, among other factors. These purchase commitments extend through crop year 2025 and specify both the quantities and prices,

denominated in U.S. Dollar, Euros, New Zealand Dollars and British Pounds, to which the Company is committed. Hops purchase commitments outstanding at December 25, 2021 totaled $22.5 million, based on the exchange rates on that date.

The Company does not use forward currency exchange contracts and intends to purchase future hops using the exchange rate at the time of purchase. These contracts were deemed necessary in order to bring hop inventory levels and purchase commitments into balance with the Company’s current brewing volume and hop usage forecasts. In addition, these contracts enable the Company to secure its position for future supply with hop vendors in the face of some competitive buying activity.

Currently, the Company has entered into contracts for barley and wheat used in the Company’s malt with four major suppliers. The contracts cover the Company’s barley, wheat, and malt requirements for 2022 and extend through crop year 2024. These purchase commitments outstanding at December 25, 2021 totaled $22.9 million.

Certain of the Company’s arrangements with other brewing companies require it to periodically purchase equipment in support of brewery operations. As of December 25, 2021, there were no significant equipment purchase requirements outstanding under existing contracts. Changes to the Company’s brewing strategy or existing production arrangements, new production relationships or the introduction of new products in the future may require the Company to purchase equipment to support the contract breweries’ operations. Additionally, the Company anticipates paying shortfall fees at certain of its third-party brewing locations. See Note J for further discussion of the Company's third-party brewing arrangements.

The Company continues to review the impact the COVID-19 pandemic will have on its future commitments and contingencies but does not believe that the future commitments will be materially impacted.

Litigation

The Company is and in the future may be party to legal proceedings and claims, including class action claims, where significant damages are asserted against it. Given the inherent uncertainty of litigation, it is possible that the Company could incur liabilities as a consequence of these claims, which may or may not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition or the results of its operations. The Company has contingencies, for which it may record provisions if in the opinion of management and its legal counsel, the risk of loss is probable and able to be estimated. The most significant contingencies are discussed below.

Securities Litigation. On September 14, 2021, a purported class action lawsuit was filed by an individual shareholder in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York against the Company and three of its officers. The complaint alleges claims under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 between April 22, 2021 and September 8, 2021. The plaintiff claims that defendants made materially false and/or misleading statements or failed to disclose material adverse facts about the Company’s business, operations, and prospects. A second, nearly identical purported class action lawsuit was filed by another individual shareholder in the same court on October 8, 2021. The two cases were consolidated on December 14, 2021, and an amended complaint was filed on January 13, 2022.The Company intends to vigorously defend against this lawsuit. A range of potential loss is not estimable at this time.

False Advertising. On August 26, 2021, a proposed class action lawsuit was filed by two individuals in the United States District Court for the Southern District of California against the Company. The complaint alleges claims for false advertising, breach of warranty, unlawful business practices, unfair competition, and violations of certain California and New York consumer protection acts. The plaintiff claims that the Company falsely or misleadingly labelled its Truly products with respect to the ingredients contained therein. The Company intends to vigorously assert and defend its rights in this lawsuit. A range of potential loss is not estimable at this time.

Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]

Fair Value Measurements

O. Fair Value Measurements

The Company defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or be paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The Company applies the following fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value into three levels and bases the categorization within the hierarchy upon the lowest level of input that is available and significant to the fair value measurement. The hierarchy gives

the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements).

•

Level 1 — Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date.

•

Level 2 — Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. If the asset or liability has a specified (contractual) term, a Level 2 input must be observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

•

Level 3 — Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability in which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date.

The Company’s money market funds are measured at fair value on a recurring basis (at least annually) and are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy because they are valued using quoted market prices. The money market funds are invested substantially in United States Treasury and government securities. The Company does not adjust the quoted market price for such financial instruments. Cash, restricted cash, receivables and payables are carried at their cost, which approximates fair value, because of their short-term nature.

At December 25, 2021 and December 26, 2020, the Company had money market funds with a “Triple A” rated money market fund. The Company considers the “Triple A” rated money market fund to be a large, highly-rated investment-grade institution. As of December 25, 2021 and December 26, 2020, the Company’s cash and cash equivalents balance was $26.9 million and $163.3 million, respectively, including money market funds amounting to $5.8 million and $157.6 million, respectively.

During the year ended December 25, 2021, the Company determined that it would be unable to use or repurpose certain of its in-service and under construction capital projects to generate future economic benefits. Accordingly, property, plant and equipment with a carrying value of $17.8 million was written down to its estimated fair value of $5.1 million. This $12.7 million charge was included within asset impairments for the year ended December 25, 2021. The estimate of fair value was determined based on the expected salvage value of the assets. Also relating to discontinued capital projects, the Company recognized a provision of $6.3 million for amounts owed to third-parties under non-cancellable purchase orders for components of the capital projects which were determined to have no future economic benefit. Refer to Note C of these financial statements for further details.

- Definition

The entire disclosure for the fair value of financial instruments (as defined), including financial assets and financial liabilities (collectively, as defined), and the measurements of those instruments as well as disclosures related to the fair value of non-financial assets and liabilities. Such disclosures about the financial instruments, assets, and liabilities would include: (1) the fair value of the required items together with their carrying amounts (as appropriate); (2) for items for which it is not practicable to estimate fair value, disclosure would include: (a) information pertinent to estimating fair value (including, carrying amount, effective interest rate, and maturity, and (b) the reasons why it is not practicable to estimate fair value; (3) significant concentrations of credit risk including: (a) information about the activity, region, or economic characteristics identifying a concentration, (b) the maximum amount of loss the entity is exposed to based on the gross fair value of the related item, (c) policy for requiring collateral or other security and information as to accessing such collateral or security, and (d) the nature and brief description of such collateral or security; (4) quantitative information about market risks and how such risks are managed; (5) for items measured on both a recurring and nonrecurring basis information regarding the inputs used to develop the fair value measurement; and (6) for items presented in the financial statement for which fair value measurement is elected: (a) information necessary to understand the reasons for the election, (b) discussion of the effect of fair value changes on earnings, (c) a description of [similar groups] items for which the election is made and the relation thereof to the balance sheet, the aggregate carrying value of items included in the balance sheet that are not eligible for the election; (7) all other required (as defined) and desired information.

Leases

H. Leases

The Company has various lease agreements in place for facilities and equipment. Terms of these leases include, in some instances, scheduled rent increases, renewals, purchase options and maintenance costs, and vary by lease. These lease obligations expire at various dates through 2034. As the rate implicit in each lease is not readily determinable, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on information available at le commencement to determine the present value of the lease payments. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less (“short-term leases”) are not recorded on the balance sheet and are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Total right-of-use ("ROU") assets and lease liabilities were as follows:
