THE VITA COCO COMPANY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
(Amounts in thousands, except share and per share amounts)
1. NATURE OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The Vita Coco Company, Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) develops, markets, and distributes various coconut water products under the brand name Vita Coco and for retailers' own brands, predominantly in the United States. Other products include coconut milk, coconut oil, coconut as a commodity, water (under the brand name Ever & Ever ), and protein infused fitness drinks (under the brand name PWR LIFT ). We also offered a natural energy drink (under the brand name Runa ), which we ceased selling in December 2023.
The Company was incorporated in Delaware as All Market Inc. on January 17, 2007. On September 9, 2021, we changed our name to The Vita Coco Company, Inc. In 2018, the Company purchased certain assets and liabilities of Runa , which was marketed and distributed primarily in the United States until the Company ceased selling the brand in December 2023.
We are a public benefit corporation under Section 362 of the Delaware General Corporation Law. As a public benefit corporation, our Board of Directors is required by the Delaware General Corporation Law to manage or direct our business and affairs in a manner that balances the pecuniary interests of our stockholders, the best interests of those materially affected by our conduct and the specific public benefits identified in our certificate of incorporation.
The Company has ten wholly-owned subsidiaries, including four wholly-owned Asian subsidiaries established between fiscal 2012 and 2015, four North American subsidiaries established between 2012 and 2018, All Market Europe, Ltd. (“AME”) in the United Kingdom established 2009, and one subsidiary in Germany established during 2024.
Unaudited interim financial information
The Company’s condensed consolidated interim financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. As permitted under those rules, certain footnotes or other financial information that are normally required by U.S. GAAP can be condensed or omitted. In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial information for the interim period presented. These interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2024 or for any other interim period or for any other future year. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2024 is unaudited and should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, there were no significant changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies as described in the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023 .
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
Principles of Consolidation
The condensed consolidated financial statements include all the accounts of the wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates
Preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP 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 condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and
10
Table of Contents
expenses during the reporting period. Management considers many factors in selecting appropriate financial accounting policies and controls in developing the estimates and assumptions that are used in the preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements. Management must apply significant judgment in this process. In addition, other factors may affect estimates, including expected business and operational changes, sensitivity and volatility associated with the assumptions used in developing estimates, and whether historical trends are expected to be representative of future trends. Additionally, uncertainty in the macroeconomic environment resulting from current geopolitical and economic instability (including the effects of current wars and other international conflicts) and the high interest rate and inflationary cost environment make estimates and assumptions difficult to calculate with precision. The estimation process often may yield a range of reasonable estimates of the ultimate future outcomes, and management must select an amount that falls within that range of reasonable estimates. The most significant estimates in the condensed consolidated financial statements relate to share-based compensation, assessing long-lived assets for impairment, estimating the net realizable value of inventories, determining the accounts receivables reserve, assessing goodwill for impairment, determining the value of trade promotions, and assessing the realizability of deferred income taxes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Concentration of Credit Risk
The Company’s cash and accounts receivable are subject to concentrations of credit risk. The Company’s cash balances are primarily on deposit with banks in the U.S. which are guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") up to $250. At times, such cash may be in excess of the FDIC insurance limit. To minimize the risk, the Company’s policy is to maintain cash balances with high quality institutions, which may include banks, financial institutions and investment firms, and invest daily or reserve operating cash in money market funds, government securities, bank obligations, municipal securities or other investment vehicles with short-term maturities.
Substantially all of the Company’s customers are either wholesalers or retailers of beverages. A material default in payment, a material reduction in purchases from these or any large customers, or the loss of a large customer or customer groups could have a material adverse impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and liquidity. The Company is exposed to concentration of credit risk from its major customers for which two customers in aggregate represented 48 % and 51 % of total net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. In addition, the two customers in aggregate also accounted for 37 % and 43 % of total accounts receivable as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. The Company has not experienced credit issues with these customers. Refer to Note 7, Commitments and Contingencies regarding additional information on our major customers.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments ("ASU 2016-13"). The new accounting standard introduced the current expected credit losses methodology ("CECL") for estimating allowances for credit losses. The measurement of expected credit losses under the CECL methodology is applicable to financial assets measured at amortized costs, including loans and trade receivables. ASU 2016-13 was effective for the Company for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company adopted the standard on January 1, 2023 using the modified retrospective method for all financial assets in scope.
As a part of the adoption, the Company selected to apply roll-rate method to estimate current expected credit losses for its accounts receivable population and weighted average remaining maturity ("WARM") method for supplier advances.
The difference of $ 1,070 between the incurred credit loss estimate and current expected credit loss estimate was recorded as cumulative effect adjustment to the Company’s opening retained earnings and reflected on the consolidated balance sheet as of January 1, 2023 as a result of the ASC Topic 326, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses ("ASC 326") adoption. The adoption of the standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations, or consolidated statements of cash flows. The following table illustrates the impact of ASC 326.
As of January 1, 2023
As reported under ASC 326 Pre-ASC 326 adoption Impact of ASC 326 adoption
Allowance for credit losses on accounts receivables $ 3,552 $ 2,898 $ 654
Allowance for credit losses on supplier advances 416 — 416
Total $ 3,968 $ 2,898 $ 1,070

Leases
As of September 30, 2024, the Company signed a lease agreement for a new office in New York, NY. The operating lease will commence in fiscal year 2025, ending in 2034 with an option to extend for an additional two years . Total undiscounted future payments for this new office lease are $ 15,766 . Additionally upon signing the agreement, the Company was required to establish a line of credit of $ 920 as a security deposit which may be used in case of delinquency. As of September 30, 2024, the Company has established the letter of credit and accounted $ 920 as restricted cash.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In November 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which requires public entities to disclose information about their reportable segments’ significant expenses and other segment items on an interim and annual basis ("ASU 2023-07"). Public entities with a single reportable segment are required to apply the disclosure requirements in ASU 2023-07, as well as all existing segment disclosures and reconciliation requirements in ASC Topic 280, Segment Reporting on an interim and annual basis. ASU 2023-07 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and for interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2023-07.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which requires public entities, on an annual basis, to provide disclosure of specific categories in the effective tax rate reconciliation, as well as disclosure of income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction ("ASU 2023-09"). ASU 2023-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2023-09.
3. REVENUE RECOGNITION
Revenues are accounted for in accordance with ASC Topic 606, Revenue Recognition ("ASC 606"). The Company disaggregates revenue into the following product categories:
• Vita Coco Coconut Water —This product category consists of all branded coconut water product offerings under the Vita Coco labels, where the majority ingredient is coconut water. The Company determined that the sale of the products represents a distinct performance obligation as customers can benefit from purchasing the products on their own or together with other resources that are readily available to the customers. For these products, control is transferred upon customer receipt, at which point the Company recognizes the transaction price for the product as revenue.
• Private Label —This product category consists of all private label product offerings, which includes coconut water and oil. The Company determined the production and distribution of private label products represents a distinct performance obligation. Since there is no alternative use for these products and the Company has the right to payment for performance completed to date, the Company recognizes the revenue for the production of these private label products over time as the production for open purchase orders occurs, which may be prior to any shipment.
• Other —This product category consists of all other products, which included Runa (until we ceased selling it in December 2023), and includes Ever & Ever and PWR LIFT product offerings and Vita Coco product extensions beyond coconut water, coconut milk products, and other revenue transactions (e.g., bulk product sales). For these products, control is transferred upon customer receipt, at which point the Company recognizes the transaction price for the product as revenue.
The Company excludes from revenues all taxes assessed by a governmental authority that are imposed on the sale of its products and collected from customers.
The Company provides trade promotions and sales discounts to its customers and distributors. Since these sales promotions and sales discounts do not meet the criteria for a distinct good or service, they are primarily accounted for as a reduction of revenue and include payments to customers and distributors for performing activities on our behalf, such as payments for in-store displays, payments to gain distribution of new products, payments for shelf space and discounts to promote lower retail prices. These condensed consolidated financial statements include accruals for these promotion and discounts. The accruals are made for invoices that have not yet been received as of the end of the reporting period and are
12
Table of Contents
recorded as a reduction of sales, and are based on contract terms and our historical experience with similar programs and require management judgment with respect to estimating customer and consumer participation and performance levels.

Revolving Credit Facility
In May 2020, the Company entered into the five-year credit facility with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association consisting of a revolving line of credit, which currently provides for committed borrowings of $ 60 million (the "2020 Credit Facility"). The maturity date on the 2020 Credit Facility is May 12, 2026.
Starting in December 2022, borrowings on the 2020 Credit Facility bear interest at rates based on either: 1) a fluctuating rate per annum determined to be the sum of Daily Simple Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") plus a spread defined in the credit agreement (the "Spread"); or 2) a fixed rate per annum determined to be the sum of the Term SOFR plus the Spread. The Spread ranges from 1.00 % to 1.75 %, which is based on the Company’s leverage ratio (as defined in the credit agreement) for the immediately preceding fiscal quarter as defined in the credit agreement. In addition, the Company is currently subject to an unused commitment fee ranging from 0.10 % and 0.20 % on the unused amount of the line of credit, with the rate being based on the Company’s leverage ratio (as defined in the credit agreement).
As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had no outstanding balance and $ 60 million undrawn and available under its amended 2020 Credit Facility. The Company incurred no interest expense for the 2020 Credit Facility for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023, respectively. The unused commitment fee for the 2020 Credit Facility amounted to $ 15 and $ 15 for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023, respectively. The unused commitment fee for the 2020 Credit Facility amounted to $ 46 and $ 46 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023, respectively.
The 2020 Credit Facility is collateralized by substantially all of the Company’s assets.
The 2020 Credit Facility contains certain affirmative and negative covenants that, among other things, limit the Company’s ability to, subject to various exceptions and qualifications: (i) incur liens; (ii) incur additional debt; (iii) sell, transfer or dispose of assets; (iv) merge with or acquire other companies, (v) make loans, advances or guarantees; (vi) make investments; (vii) make dividends and distributions on, or repurchases of, equity; and (viii) enter into certain transactions with affiliates. The 2020 Credit Facility also requires the Company to maintain certain financial covenants including a maximum leverage ratio, a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio, and a minimum asset coverage ratio. As of September 30, 2024, the Company was in compliance with all financial covenants.

7. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Contingencies:
Litigation —The Company may engage in various litigation matters in the ordinary course of business. The Company intends to vigorously defend itself in such matters, based upon the advice of legal counsel, and is of the opinion that the resolution of these matters will not have a material effect on the condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company records a liability when it is probable that a loss has been incurred and the amount is reasonably estimable. The Company also discloses when it is reasonably possible that a material loss may be incurred. As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company has not recorded any liabilities relating to such legal matters.
Business Risk —The Company imports finished goods predominantly from manufacturers located in South American and Southeast Asian countries. The Company may be subject to certain business risks due to potential instability in these regions.

2023
2024 2023
Customer A 25 % 29 % 14 % 20 %
Customer B 23 % 22 % 23 % 23 %
One of the customers acquired less than 5% ownership in the Company upon consummation of the Company's initial public offering ("IPO").

The customer continues to hold less than 5% ownership in the Company as of September 30, 2024.
In 2023, we agreed to start to discontinue the private label coconut water and coconut oil supply relationship with one of our significant customers as the terms required to retain the business were contrary to our long term margin targets.

Supplier B 13 % 14 %
8. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS
The Company accounts for derivative instruments in accordance with the ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging ("ASC 815"). These principles require that all derivative instruments be recognized at fair value on each balance sheet date unless they qualify for a scope exclusion as a normal purchase or sales transaction, which is accounted for under the accrual method of accounting. In addition, these principles permit derivative instruments that qualify for hedge accounting to reflect the changes in the fair value of the derivative instruments through earnings or stockholders’ equity as other comprehensive income on a net basis until the hedged item is settled and recognized in earnings, depending on whether the derivative is being used to hedge changes in fair value or cash flows. The ineffective portion of a derivative instrument’s change in fair value is immediately recognized in earnings. As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company did not have any derivative instruments that it had designated as fair value or cash flow hedges.

The Company applies recurring fair value measurements to its derivative instruments in accordance with ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements ("ASC 820"). In determining fair value, the Company used a market approach and incorporated the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk and/or the risks inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique. These inputs can be readily observable, market corroborated or generally unobservable internally developed inputs.
9. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
ASC 820 provides a framework for measuring fair value and requires expanded disclosures regarding fair value measurements. ASC 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. Based upon observability of the inputs used in valuation techniques, the Company’s assets and liabilities are classified as follows:
Level 1 —Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 —Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted market prices in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.
Level 3 —Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. This includes internally developed models and methodologies utilizing significant unobservable inputs.
Forward Currency Swap Contracts —See Note 8, Derivative Instruments , for a description of these contracts. The Company’s valuation methodology for forward currency swap contracts is based upon third-party institution data.
17
Table of Contents
The Company’s fair value hierarchy for those assets (liabilities) measured at fair value on a recurring basis at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, is as follows:
Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total
Forward Currency
Swaps/Contracts
September 30, 2024 $ — $ ( 3,234 ) $ — $ ( 3,234 )
December 31, 2023 $ — $ 2,663 $ — $ 2,663
There were no transfers between any levels of the fair value hierarchy for any of the Company’s fair value measurements.
10. STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY
Common and Treasury Stock —Each share of Common Stock entitles its holder to one vote on matters required to be voted on by the stockholders of the Company and to receive dividends, when and if declared by the Company’s Board of Directors.
As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company held 6,740,446 and 6,236,200 shares, respectively, in treasury stock. As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had 3,257,423 and 3,124,326 shares, respectively, of Common Stock available for issuance upon the conversion of outstanding equity awards under the 2021 Incentive Award Plan ("2021 Plan").
On October 30, 2023, the Company's Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program ("Program") authorizing the Company to repurchase up to $ 40,000 of Common Stock. Shares of Common Stock may be repurchased under the Program from time to time through open market purchases, block trades, private transactions or accelerated or other structured share repurchase programs. To the extent not retired, shares of Common Stock repurchased under the Program will be placed in the Company's treasury shares. The extent to which the Company repurchases shares of Common Stock, and the timing of such repurchases, will depend upon a variety of factors, including market conditions, regulatory requirements and other corporate considerations, as determined by the Company. The Program has no time limits and may be suspended or discontinued at any time. The Company repurchased 112,702 shares under this Program during the three months ended September 30, 2024. The Company repurchased 504,246 shares under this Program at a cost of $ 12,030 during the nine months ended September 30, 2024.

On May 23, 2023, the Company entered into an underwriting agreement (the "Underwriting Agreement") with BofA Securities, Inc., Evercore Group L.L.C. and Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, as the representative of the underwriters named in Schedule I thereto (collectively, the "Underwriters"), and a stockholder of the Company, Verlinvest Beverages SA (the "Selling Stockholder"), relating to an underwritten public offering of 5,000,000 shares (the "Offering") of Common Stock at a price to the public of $ 23.00 per share, before deducting underwriting discounts. Pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, all 5,000,000 shares of Common Stock were sold by the Selling Stockholder. Under the terms of the Underwriting Agreement, the Selling Stockholder granted the Underwriters an option exercisable for 30 days to purchase up to an additional 750,000 shares of Common Stock from the Selling Stockholder at the public offering price, less underwriting discounts and commissions, which option was exercised in full prior to the closing of the Offering. The closing of the Offering occurred on May 26, 2023. The Company did not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of the shares. Additionally, the Company incurred $ 856 of administrative expenses related to the Offering, which were expensed in the nine months ended September 30, 2023.
Stock-based Compensation —The stockholders of the Company approved the adoption of the Company’s 2014 Stock Option and Restricted Stock Plan (the “2014 Plan”). The 2014 Plan allowed for a maximum of 8 % of the sum of the Available Equity defined as the sum of: (i) the total then outstanding shares of common shares; and (ii) all available stock options (i.e., granted and outstanding stock options and stock options not yet granted). Under the terms of the 2014 Plan, the Company may grant employees, directors and consultants stock options and restricted stock awards and has the authority to establish the specific terms of each award, including exercise price, expiration and vesting. Currently, only stock options were granted under the 2014 Plan. Generally, stock options issued pursuant to the 2014 Plan contain exercise prices no less than the fair value of Common Stock on the date of grant and have a ten-year contractual term.

Subsequent to September 30, 2021, the stockholders of the Company approved the adoption of the 2021 Plan, which became effective after the closing of the Company's IPO completed in October 2021. On and after closing of the offering and the effectiveness of the 2021 Plan, no further grants have been made under the 2014 Plan. The maximum number of shares of our Common Stock available for issuance under the 2021 Plan is equal to the sum of: (i) 3,431,312 shares of our Common Stock; and (ii) an annual increase on the first day of each year beginning in 2022 and ending in and including 2031, equal to the lesser of (A) two percent ( 2 %) of the outstanding shares of our Common Stock on the last day of the immediately preceding fiscal year; and (B) such lesser amount as determined by our Board of Directors; provided, however, no more than 3,431,312 shares may be issued upon the exercise of incentive stock options ("ISOs"). The 2021 Plan provides for the grant of stock options, including ISOs and nonqualified stock options ("NSOs"), restricted stock, dividend equivalents, stock payments, restricted stock units ("RSUs"), other incentive awards, stock appreciation rights ("SARs"), and cash awards. As of September 30, 2024, only stock options, restricted stock, and RSU's have been granted under the 2021 Plan.

Option Awards with Service-based Vesting Conditions
Most of the stock option awards granted under the 2014 Plan and 2021 Plan vest based on continuous service. The options awarded to the employees have differing vesting schedules as specified in each grant agreement. There were 168,076 new service-based stock option awards granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2024. Exercises of stock options during the three months ended September 30, 2024, and 2023 were 61,763 and 314,210 , respectively.

Service & Performance based Restricted Stock and RSUs
Restricted stock and RSUs were granted under the 2021 Plan and primarily vest based on continuous service.

shares, in connection with an amendment to extend the distributor agreement term to June 10, 2026.

The remaining 50 % were released on March 31, 2024. The grant was accounted for as a stock-based sales incentive based on guidance in ASC 606 and is reflected as a reduction in the transaction price of revenue on the basis of the grant-date fair-value measure in accordance with the stock compensation guidance in ASC 718.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, there were 259,221 service based and 58,365 performance based RSUs granted, which had an aggregate grant date fair value of $ 8,348 .
