Dutch Bros Inc. Reports First Quarter 2024 Financial Results

Achieves $275 million in Revenues in Quarter, a 39% Increase Year-over-Year
Delivers 10.0% Same Shop Sales Growth and Ties Record New Shop Openings
Raises 2024 Guidance

GRANTS PASS, Ore. - May 7, 2024 - Dutch Bros Inc. (NYSE: BROS; “Dutch Bros” or the “Company”), one of the fastest-growing brands in the quick service beverage industry in the United States by location count, today reported financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2024.
Christine Barone, Chief Executive Officer and President of Dutch Bros, stated, “We are pleased with our performance in the first quarter - we delivered exceptional results and witnessed the momentum we saw leaving 2023 continue into Q1. Headlining Q1 performance was 10.0% system same shop sales growth, the strongest single quarter since Q4 2021, and 39% year-over-year growth in revenue to $275 million. These outstanding top-line metrics were underpinned by excellent margin flow through. Given this strong start to 2024, and despite a continued volatile economic backdrop for the consumer, we are comfortable raising our guidance for the year.”
She continued, “System same shop sales growth featured a healthy combination of ticket expansion and traffic. Our traffic trajectory is particularly encouraging, and has now improved for two consecutive quarters. We believe our success is due in part to the plans we began setting in motion last year, underscored by two strong new product launches in Q1. Notably, a record 66% of all transactions in Q1 came through Dutch Rewards members, which allows us to efficiently and effectively connect with our customers. We are also seeing traction driving awareness in new markets, and are investing more to capitalize on this opportunity.”
Barone added, “Bolstered by strong system same shop sales growth, system AUVs expanded to $2.0 million, once again the highest on record. We also continued to deliver strong new shop openings, tying a record 45 new shops opened in the quarter. This marks the 11th consecutive quarter of 30 or more new shop openings and demonstrates the consistency by which we are executing our growth plans.”

1    Same shop sales is defined in the section “Select Financial Metrics”.
2    Reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP results is provided in the section “Non-GAAP Financial Measures”.
3    We have not reconciled guidance for Adjusted EBITDA to the corresponding GAAP financial measure because we do not provide guidance for the various reconciling items. We are unable to provide guidance for these reconciling items because we cannot determine their probable significance, as certain items are outside of our control and cannot be reasonably predicted due to the fact that these items could vary significantly from period to period. Accordingly, reconciliation to the corresponding GAAP financial measure is not available without unreasonable effort.
Executive Leadership Transitions
Pursuant to the previously announced planned senior leadership changes, the Board of Directors appointed Joshua Guenser to the role of Chief Financial Officer from his previous role as Incoming Chief Financial Officer, effective as of May 9, 2024. Guenser will succeed Charley Jemley, who will step into the role of Strategic Advisor, to provide support for a transitional period prior to his planned retirement.

Christine Barone, stated, “I would like to express my deepest gratitude to Charley for his almost five years of exceptional service to Dutch Bros. Charley’s leadership and steady hand has been invaluable to shepherding us through our IPO and our subsequent growth and success. His dedication to the Dutch Bros family will be greatly missed. On behalf of the entire team, thank you, Charley, for your unwavering commitment and outstanding contributions to our company.”

1    AUVs are determined based on the net sales for any trailing twelve-month period for systemwide and company-operated shops that have been open a minimum of 15 months. AUVs are calculated by dividing the systemwide and company-operated shop net sales by the total number of systemwide and company-operated shops, respectively. Management uses this metric as an indicator of shop growth and future expectations of mature locations.
2    Same shop sales reflects the change in year-over-year sales for the comparable shop base, which we define as shops open for 15 complete months or longer as of the first day of the reporting period. Management uses this metric as an indicator of shop

Systemwide shop base641 503 
Company-operated shop base370 246 
3    Systemwide sales and systemwide same shop sales are operating measures that include sales at company-operated shops and sales at franchised shops during the comparable periods presented. Franchise sales represent sales at all franchise shops and are revenues to our franchisees. We do not record franchise sales as revenues; however, our royalty revenues and advertising fund contributions are calculated based on a percentage of franchise sales. As these metrics include sales reported to us by our non-consolidated franchise partners, these metrics should be considered as a supplement to, not a substitute for, our results as reported under GAAP. Management uses these metrics as indicators of our system’s overall financial health, growth and future expansion prospects.
4    Company-operated and franchise shops operating weeks are calculated based on the number operating days for the shop base and dividing by 7. Our shop base is defined as shops opened as of the end date of the periods presented. The operating weeks calculations reflect re-acquired franchises through 2022. Management uses these metrics as indicators of our system’s overall financial health, growth and future expansion prospects.
5    Dutch Rewards is our digitally-based rewards program available exclusively through the Dutch Rewards app. Management uses this metric as an indicator of customer loyalty adoption of our Dutch Rewards app and future promotional plans.
