FINANCIAL AND MARKET HIGHLIGHTS FOR THE SECOND QUARTER OF 2025
For the three months ended June 30, 2025, revenue totaled approximately $739.3 million, compared to $402.0 million for the prior-year period, representing 84% growth. The increase was primarily driven by $301.2 million of revenue from the Alani Nu® brand which we acquired on April 1, 2025. Alani Nu achieved record sales fueled by strong limited-time-offer (LTO) innovation performance and organic growth across the brand’s core flavors. CELSIUS® brand revenue grew 9% in the second quarter compared to the same period last year supported by favorable channel mix, increases in total distribution points and velocity gains.

International revenue totaled $24.8 million for the second quarter of 2025, representing a 27% increase compared to the same period in 2024 driven by continued momentum in our expansion markets including the UK, Ireland, France, Australia, New Zealand and the Netherlands.

For the three months ended June 30, 2025, gross profit increased by $171.8 million to $380.9 million from $209.1 million for the prior-year period. Gross profit margin was 51.5% for the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to 52.0% for the same period in 2024. Gross margin improvements were driven by lower material costs, price mix, and favorable channel and portfolio mix but were offset by the impact of Alani Nu’s margin profile, which included a $21.7 million dollar inventory step up adjustment (although Alani Nu was favorably impacted by product mix, price mix, material costs, and freight costs). As inventory is recorded on a first in first out basis, the impact from tariffs was not significant during the quarter.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2025, increased $123.0 million, or 107%, to $237.9 million from $114.9 million for the year-ago period, primarily due to the addition of Alani Nu to the portfolio and acquisition-related costs, including recognition of the full performance earn out. Selling, general and administrative expenses represented 32.2% of revenue in the second quarter of 2025. Investment in our Live. Fit. Go. marketing campaign, launched in the second quarter, will continue to increase in the second half of 2025.

Diluted earnings per share for the second quarter of 2025 was $0.33 compared to $0.28 for the prior-year period. Non-GAAP adjusted diluted earnings per share for the second quarter of 2025 was $0.47 compared to $0.28 for the prior-year period.

Retail Performance
Retailer enthusiasm and consumer demand continue to validate the company’s brand leadership in modern energy, a category now accelerating across channels and demographics.

Retail sales of the Celsius Holdings portfolio in U.S. tracked channels (MULO+ w/C) reflected increasing consumer demand for sugar free, functional beverages for the 13-week period ended June 29, 20252. Celsius Holdings retail sales increased 29% year over year and 25% sequentially3, with month-over-month retail sales growth since January 2025. Celsius Holdings held a 17.3% dollar share in the U.S. RTD energy category for the period, a 1.8 point year-over-year increase and 1.1 point sequential increase.

CELSIUS brand retail sales increased 3% year over year for the 13-week period ended June 29, 2025, and 17.6% sequentially4, with month-over-month retail sales growth since January 2025. The CELSIUS brand held an 11% dollar share in the U.S. RTD energy category for the period, a 1.3 point decline over the year-ago period. Sequential dollar share increased slightly (+8 bps) over the prior period.5

Alani Nu brand retail sales increased 129% year over year for the 13-week period ended June 29, 2025, and 39% sequentially,6 marking one of the fastest accelerations in the category and underscoring the brand’s resonance with younger, more diverse energy consumers. The Alani Nu brand held a 6.3% dollar share in the U.S. RTD energy category for the period, a 3.1 point increase over the year-ago period. Sequential dollar share increased by 1 point over the prior 13-week period.7

Strong retailer support and rising consumer demand for great-tasting, better-for-you functional beverages have propelled Celsius Holdings’ past-52-week RTD energy retail sales to over $4 billion, surpassing the combined sales of the next eight RTD energy drink brands in the same period.8

FINANCIAL AND MARKET HIGHLIGHTS FOR THE FIRST HALF OF 2025
For the six months ended June 30, 2025, revenue totaled approximately $1,068.5 million, compared to $757.7 million for the prior-year period, representing growth of 41.0%. The increase was primarily driven by $301.2 million of revenue from the Alani Nu brand in the second quarter of 2025.

For the six months ended June 30, 2025, gross profit increased by $161.9 million to $553.2 million from $391.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. Gross profit margin was 51.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2025, a 20-basis-point increase from 51.6% for the same period in 2024, driven by lower material costs, price mix, and favorable channel and portfolio mix which were partially offset by the impact of Alani Nu’s margin profile which included a $21.7 million dollar inventory step up adjustment (although Alani Nu was favorably impacted in the second quarter by product mix, price mix, material costs, and freight costs).

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2025, increased $144.4 million, or 68%, to $358.2 million from $213.9 million for the prior-year period.

Diluted earnings per share for the first half of 2025 was $0.48 compared to $0.55 for the prior-year period. Non-GAAP adjusted diluted earnings per share for the first half of 2025 was $0.65 compared to $0.55 for the prior-year period.

Stock-based compensation expense consists of non-cash charges for the estimated fair value of unvested restricted share unit and stock option awards granted to employees and directors. The Company believes that the exclusion provides a more accurate comparison of operating results and is useful to investors to understand the impact that stock-based compensation expense has on its operating results.

The total tax effect of the adjusted items for the quarter ended June 30, 2025 was $(0.05) per diluted share, which includes the tax effect of deductible acquisition costs and inventory step-up adjustment. The total tax effect of the adjusted items for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was $(0.06) per diluted share. There were no adjusted items for the six months ended June 30, 2024. Tax effects are determined based on the tax treatment of the related item, the incremental statutory rate of the jurisdictions pertaining to the adjustment, and their effects on pre-tax income (loss).




USE OF NON-GAAP MEASURES

Celsius defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income before net interest (expense) income, income tax expense (benefit), and depreciation and amortization expense, further adjusted by excluding stock-based compensation expense, foreign exchange gains or losses, distributor termination fees, legal settlement costs, reorganization costs, acquisition costs, penalties, and inventory step-up adjustment. Adjusted EBITDA Margin is the ratio between the company’s Adjusted EBITDA and net revenue, expressed as a percentage. Adjusted diluted earnings per share is GAAP diluted earnings per share net of add backs and deductions for distributor termination, legal settlement costs, reorganization costs, acquisitions costs, penalties, and inventory step-up adjustment. Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, and Adjusted diluted earnings per share are non-GAAP financial measures.

Celsius uses Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, and Adjusted diluted earnings per share for operational and financial decision-making and believes these measures are useful in evaluating its performance because they eliminate certain items that management does not consider indicators of Celsius’ operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, and Adjusted diluted earnings per share may also be used by many of Celsius’ investors, securities analysts, and other interested parties in evaluating its operational and financial performance across reporting periods. Celsius believes that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, and Adjusted diluted earnings per share, provides useful information to investors by allowing an understanding of measures that it uses internally for operational decision-making, budgeting and assessing operating performance.

Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, and Adjusted diluted earnings per share are not recognized terms under GAAP and should not be considered as a substitute for net income or any other financial measure presented in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of Celsius’ results as reported under GAAP. Celsius strongly encourages investors to review its financial statements and publicly filed reports in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure.

Because non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, and Adjusted diluted earnings per share as defined by Celsius, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. It therefore may not be possible to compare Celsius’ use of these non-GAAP financial measures with those used by other companies.
