1. Description of Business

Eastside Distilling (the “Company” or “Eastside Distilling”) was incorporated under the laws of Nevada in 2004 under the name of Eurocan Holdings, Ltd. In December 2014, the Company changed its corporate name to Eastside Distilling, Inc. to reflect the acquisition of Eastside Distilling, LLC. The Company manufactures, acquires, blends, bottles, imports, markets and sells a wide variety of alcoholic beverages under recognized brands. The Company currently employs 75 people in the United States.

The Company’s spirits’ brands span several alcoholic beverage categories, including whiskey, vodka, rum, and tequila. The Company sells products on a wholesale basis to distributors in open states and through brokers in control states.

The Company operates a mobile craft canning business that primarily services the craft beer and craft cider industries. During 2022, the Company made substantial investments to expand its product offerings to include digital can printing activities in the Pacific Northwest (together Craft Canning + Printing, “Craft C+P”). Craft C+P operates 14 mobile filling lines in Seattle, Washington; Spokane, Washington; Portland, Oregon; and Denver, Colorado. The Company now offers co-packing services in Portland, Oregon through its recent asset acquisition, allowing it to offer end-to-end production capabilities.
