Exhibit 99.2
UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
On February 20, 2025, Celsius Holdings, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the Company or Celsius), entered into a membership interest purchase agreement to acquire Alani Nutrition LLC, a Kentucky limited liability company (Alani Nu), from its equity holders, Max Clemons, Trey Steiger, Katy E. Schneider, R. Haydn Schneider and certain related trusts (collectively, the Sellers) and Congo Brands Holding Company LLC (Congo) for a total purchase consideration comprising (i) $1,275.0 million in cash, subject to customary post-closing adjustments, (ii) an aggregate of 22,451,224 unregistered shares of the Companys common stock subject to a registration rights agreement and a lock-up agreement that restricts the sale or transfer of the Companys common stock, with one-third of the common stock released from restrictions on each of April 1, 2026, October 1, 2026 and April 1, 2027, respectively, and (iii) up to $25.0 million in additional cash consideration, payable only if net sales of Alani Nus products meet or exceed an agreed upon target for calendar year 2025. On April 1, 2025 (the Closing Date), the Company completed the acquisition of Alani Nu (the Acquisition). The actual purchase consideration at the Closing Date is different from the amount reported in these unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements given the periods presented (see Note 3 for further information).
On the Closing Date, Celsius and certain subsidiaries, the lenders and issuing banks thereto and UBS AG, Stamford Branch, as administrative agent and collateral agent, entered into a Credit Agreement (the Credit Agreement). The Credit Agreement provides for a term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of up to $900 million, which was fully drawn on the Closing Date to fund a portion of the cash consideration paid to Sellers, and a revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of up to $100 million, which was undrawn as of the Closing Date.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of December 31, 2024, gives effect to the Acquisition as if it had been completed on December 31, 2024, and combines the audited consolidated balance sheet of Celsius as of December 31, 2024, with Alani Nus audited consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2024.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, gives effect to the Acquisition as if it had been completed on January 1, 2024, and combines Celsius audited consolidated statement of operations and Alani Nus audited consolidated statement of income for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024.
The historical financial statements of Celsius and Alani Nu have been adjusted in the accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements as necessary to account for the Acquisition in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (U.S. GAAP). The unaudited pro forma adjustments are based upon currently available information and certain assumptions that Celsius management believes are reasonable as of the date of this filing. However, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements may not reflect all the adjustments necessary to conform the accounting policies of Alani Nu to those of Celsius, as Celsius has not completed its review to identify all adjustments that may be necessary to conform Alani Nus accounting policies to Celsius accounting policies. Upon completion of such review, differences may be identified between the accounting policies of the two companies that could have an impact on the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements were derived from and should be read in conjunction with:
| The accompanying notes to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements; |
| The audited consolidated financial statements of Celsius contained in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 and the accompanying notes thereto; and |
| The audited consolidated financial statements of Alani Nu as of December 31, 2024 and for the two years ended December 31, 2024 and the accompanying notes thereto, which are included as Exhibit 99.1 to the Companys Current Report on Form 8-K/A with which these unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements are filed. |
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements do not reflect any anticipated synergies or dis-synergies, operating efficiencies, or cost savings that may result from the Acquisition or any integration costs that may be incurred.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements and related notes are being provided for illustrative purposes only and do not purport to represent what the combined companys actual results of operations or financial position would have been had the Acquisition been completed on the dates indicated, nor are they necessarily indicative of the combined companys future results of operations or financial position for any future period. The actual financial position and results of operations may differ significantly from the pro forma amounts reflected herein due to a variety of factors.
The accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements and related notes have been prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X as amended to give the effect to the following:
| Application of the acquisition method of accounting under the provisions of the Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification 805, Business Combinations (ASC 805), where certain assets and liabilities of Alani Nu will be recorded by Celsius at their respective fair values on the Closing Date; |
| Adjustments to conform the financial statement presentation of Alani Nu to that of Celsius, based upon a preliminary assessment by Celsius; |
| Adjustments to reflect the related financing transactions and other adjustments; and |
| Adjustments to reflect transaction costs in connection with the Acquisition. |
The pro forma adjustments and the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements are preliminary and are subject to change as additional information becomes available and as additional analysis is performed. The preliminary pro forma adjustments have been made solely for the purpose of providing the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements in accordance with the requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Celsius estimated the fair value of Alani Nus assets and liabilities based on a preliminary valuation, due diligence information and other relevant information. A final determination of the fair value of Alani Nus acquired assets and assumed liabilities will be performed. Any changes in the fair values of the net assets or total purchase consideration as compared with the information shown in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements may change the amount of the total purchase consideration allocated to goodwill and other assets and liabilities and may impact the combined companys statements of operations; therefore the final purchase consideration allocation may be materially different than the preliminary purchase consideration allocation presented in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1 Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements and related notes are prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X. The unaudited pro forma financial statements have been derived from the respective audited consolidated financial statements of Alani Nu and Celsius after giving pro forma effect to the Acquisition. Celsius and Alani Nus historical audited consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and presented in U.S. dollars.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet, as of December 31, 2024, and the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2024, presented herein, are based on the historical audited consolidated financial statements of Celsius and Alani Nu, and thus the following financial information was combined:
| The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of December 31, 2024, is presented as if the Acquisition had occurred on December 31, 2024, and combines the historical balance sheet of Celsius as of December 31, 2024, with the historical balance sheet of Alani Nu as of December 31, 2024. |
| The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2024, has been prepared as if the Acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2024, and combines Celsius historical statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2024, with Alani Nus historical statement of income for the year ended December 31, 2024. |
As discussed in Note 2, certain reclassifications were made to align Celsius and Alani Nus financial statement presentation. Celsius has not identified all adjustments necessary to conform Alani Nus accounting policies to Celsius accounting policies. As more information becomes available, Celsius will perform a comprehensive review of Alani Nus accounting policies and reclassifications. As a result of the review, Celsius may identify differences between the accounting policies and reclassifications of the two companies, which, when conformed, could have a material impact on the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements. Based on currently available information, Celsius has determined that no significant adjustments were necessary to conform Alani Nus consolidated financial statements to Celsius accounting policies. As a result, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements presented assume there are no differences in accounting policies. However, certain reclassification adjustments have been made to conform Alani Nus historical financial statement presentation to Celsius financial statement presentation.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements have been prepared using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations, with Celsius as the accounting acquirer, using the fair value concepts defined in ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement, and based on the historical financial statements of Celsius and Alani Nu. The purchase consideration was allocated to Alani Nus assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon their estimated fair values as of the Closing Date. The excess of purchase price over the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed was allocated to goodwill. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements are based on preliminary estimates of the fair value of the purchase consideration and assets and liabilities acquired, which requires the use of significant assumptions. Management believes that the assumptions used for such estimates provide a reasonable basis for presenting the significant effects of the Acquisition and that the pro forma adjustments in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements give appropriate effect to the assumptions. Differences between these preliminary estimates and the final acquisition accounting may be material; therefore, the pro forma financial statements presented herein are not necessarily indicative of what the combined companys financial condition or results of operations would have been had the Acquisition been completed on the applicable dates of these pro forma financial statements. In addition, the pro forma financial statements do not purport to project the future financial condition and results of operations of the combined company.
The pro forma adjustments represent managements best estimates and are based upon currently available information and certain assumptions that Celsius believes are reasonable under the circumstances. There were no material transactions between Celsius and Alani Nu during the periods presented. Accordingly, adjustments to eliminate transactions between Celsius and Alani Nu have not been reflected in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements.
Note 2 - Celsius and Alani Nu Reclassification Adjustments
During the preparation of these unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements, Celsius management performed a preliminary analysis of Alani Nus financial information to identify differences in accounting policies as compared to those of Celsius and differences in financial statement presentation as compared to the presentation of Celsius. At the time of preparing the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements, Celsius had not completed its review to identify all adjustments necessary to conform Alani Nus accounting policies to Celsius accounting policies. The adjustments below represent Celsius best estimates based on the information currently available to Celsius and could be subject to change once more detailed information is available. Following the Acquisition, the combined company will finalize the review of accounting policies and reclassifications, which could result in materially different amounts than those set forth in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements presented herein.

Note 3 Preliminary Purchase Price Allocation
(a) | Estimated Purchase Consideration |
The total estimated purchase consideration is as follows:
Estimated Purchase Consideration (in thousands) |
Amount | |||
Cash consideration (i) |
$ | 1,270,535 | ||
Repayment of existing Alani Nus debt (as of December 31, 2024) (ii) |
47,459 | |||

Estimated earnout liability (iv) |
15,000 | |||
|
|
|||
Preliminary fair value of purchase consideration |
$ | 2,054,958 | ||
|
|
(i) | This amount includes $1,253.0 million of cash consideration to sellers and $17.5 million of cash paid for reimbursement of seller transaction costs. The cash consideration to sellers is based on amounts at Closing and estimated post-closing adjustments. The cash consideration is subject to customary net working capital adjustments that have not been finalized and may result in a change to the estimated purchase consideration once final. |
(ii) | Reflects repayment of Alani Nus indebtedness in connection with the closing of the Acquisition based on the aggregate amount of Alani Nus debt and accrued interest on its balance sheet as of December 31, 2024. The amount of Alani Nu debt actually repaid on the Closing Date was different than the amount reported in these unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements. |
(iii) | Estimated preliminary fair value of share consideration is based on 22,451,224 shares of Celsius common stock issued to the Sellers multiplied by $32.16, which represents the closing share price of $35.73 on the Closing Date adjusted by a 10% discount for lack of marketability (DLOM) given that the shares have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act), and are restricted securities as defined by Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act. The DLOM was calculated based on the Finnerty model, which uses an option pricing approach, specifically, an average-strike put option, to estimate the impact of illiquidity and time-related restrictions on the value of a share. |
(iv) | Reflects the preliminary fair value of the earnout liability based on a probability-weighted-expected-return method scenario model. |
5
(b) | Preliminary Estimated Purchase Consideration Allocation |
The estimated purchase consideration, as shown in the table above, has been allocated to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed of Alani Nu based on their preliminary estimated fair values. As described above in Note 1, the preliminary estimates were based on the data available to the Company and may change upon completion of the final purchase price allocation. This preliminary purchase price allocation has been used to prepare the transaction accounting adjustments in the pro forma balance sheet and income statement. The final purchase price allocation will be determined when the Company has completed the detailed valuations and necessary calculations as described in more detail in the explanatory notes below. The final allocation could differ materially from the preliminary allocation used in the transaction accounting adjustments. The final allocation may include (1) changes in fair values of certain assets acquired and liabilities assumed (e.g., inventory, property, plant and equipment and leases) and (2) changes in the fair values of the trade name and customer relationships, as well as goodwill. Any change in the estimated fair value of the assets and liabilities acquired or the estimated fair value of the consideration will have a corresponding impact on the amount of goodwill recorded. A change in identifiable intangible assets will have a direct impact on the amount of amortization recorded against income in future periods. The impact of any changes in the purchase price allocation could have a material impact on the amounts presented in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements in future periods.
The following table provides a summary of the preliminary estimated purchase consideration allocation by major categories of assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on Celsius managements preliminary estimate of their respective fair values as if the acquisition was completed on December 31, 2024:

The preliminary estimated purchase consideration allocation above reflects a preliminary estimated goodwill of $786.2 million. Goodwill represents the excess of the estimated purchase consideration over the preliminary estimated fair values of recorded tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The actual amount of goodwill to be recorded in connection with the Acquisition is subject to change once the valuations of tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed have been completed.

|
|||||||

$ | 1,215,000 | ||||||
|
|
The preliminary fair value of trade name was determined based on an income-based approach (relief from royalty) and the preliminary fair value of customer relationships was determined based on a combination of an income-based approach and cost-based approach. A 10% change in the valuation of customer relationships would cause a corresponding increase or decrease in the amortization expense of approximately $2.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. Pro forma amortization is preliminary and based on the use of straight-line amortization. The amount of amortization following the Acquisition may differ significantly between periods based upon the final value assigned and amortization methodology used for each identifiable intangible asset.
