Exhibit 99.3

The Boston Beer Company, Inc.

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

The following unaudited pro forma combined balance sheet as of June 29, 2019 and unaudited pro forma combined statements of income for the twenty-six weeks ended June 29, 2019 and the fiscal year ended December 29, 2018 are based on the historical financial statements of Boston Beer Company Inc. (“Boston Beer”) and Off-Centered Way LLC and Subsidiaries (“Dogfish Head Brewery”), as adjusted to give effect to the following transaction (the “Transaction”):

On May 8, 2019, Boston Beer entered into definitive agreements to acquire Dogfish Head Brewery and various related operations, through the acquisition of all of the equity interests held by certain private entities in Off-Centered Way LLC, the parent holding company of the Dogfish Head Brewery operations. In accordance with these agreements, Boston Beer made a payment of $158.4 million, which was placed in escrow pending the satisfaction of certain closing conditions. The Transaction was closed on July 3, 2019, for total consideration of $336.0 million, consisting of $173.0 million in cash and 429,291 shares of restricted Class A Common Stock that had an aggregate market value as of July 3, 2019 of $163.0 million, after taking into account a post-closing cash related adjustment. The fair value of the Transaction is estimated at approximately $317.7 million.

The unaudited pro forma combined balance sheet gives effect to the Transaction as if it occurred on June 29, 2019, and the unaudited pro forma combined statements of income for the twenty-six ended June 29, 2019 and the year ended December 29, 2018 give effect to the Transaction as if it occurred on December 31, 2017, the first day of Boston Beer’s 2018 fiscal year. Boston Beer’s fiscal year is a fifty-two week or fifty-three week period ending on the last Saturday in December. June 29, 2019 is the last day of Boston Beer’s fiscal second quarter and December 29, 2018 is the last day of Boston Beer’s 2018 fiscal year. Dogfish Head Brewery has historically had a calendar year reporting period and has converted to Boston Beer’s fiscal year effective July 3, 2019.

For pro forma purposes, Boston Beer’s historic results have been presented on a fiscal year basis and have been combined with Dogfish Head Brewery’s results which have been presented on a calendar year basis. The differences between Dogfish Head Brewery’s results as presented on a calendar year basis versus the Boston Beer fiscal calendar are not deemed to be material.

Both Boston Beer’s and Dogfish Head Brewery’s consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The unaudited pro forma combined financial information does not purport to represent what the results of operations or financial position would actually have been had the Transaction occurred on the dates described above or to project the results of operations or financial position for any future date or period. The information does not reflect cost savings, operating synergies or revenue enhancements that may result from the Transaction or the costs to achieve any such potential cost savings, operating synergies or revenue enhancements.

The information reflects Boston Beer’s preliminary estimates of the allocation of the purchase price for Dogfish Head Brewery based upon available information and certain assumptions that Boston Beer believes are reasonable under the circumstances. The primary areas of the preliminary purchase price allocations that are not yet finalized relate to the fair value of property and equipment, intangible assets and goodwill. As indicated in Note 1 to the unaudited pro forma combined financial statements, Boston Beer made preliminary estimates of the fair values in order to prepare the unaudited pro forma combined financial statements, and the excess purchase price over the fair value of the acquired net assets has been recorded as goodwill. The valuations consist of a discounted cash flow analysis or other appropriate valuation techniques to determine the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed.

Actual results may differ from the unaudited pro forma combined financial statements once Boston Beer has completed the valuations necessary to finalize the allocation of purchase price of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Decreases or increases in the fair value of assets acquired or liabilities assumed would result in a corresponding increase or decrease in the amount of goodwill. In addition, if the value of the tangible and intangible assets acquired is higher than the preliminary purchase price allocation, it may result in higher amortization and/or depreciation expense than is presented in these unaudited pro forma combined financial statements.


The unaudited pro forma combined financial information should be read in conjunction with:

 

   

Boston Beer’s historical consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes contained in Boston Beer’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for its fiscal year ended December 29, 2018, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on February 20, 2019;

 

   

Boston Beer’s historical consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes contained in Boston Beer’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for its quarter ended June 29, 2019, filed with the Commission on July 25, 2019;

 

   

Dogfish Head Brewery’s historical financial statements and accompanying notes for the years ended, December 31, 2018 and 2017, included as Exhibit 99.1 in this amended Current Report on Form 8-K;

NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

 

1.

Transaction.

On May 8, 2019, Boston Beer entered into definitive agreements to acquire Dogfish Head Brewery and various related operations through the acquisition of all of the equity interests held by certain private entities in Off-Centered Way LLC, the parent holding company of the Dogfish Head Brewery operations (collectively, the “Transaction”). In accordance with these agreements, Boston Beer made a payment of $158.4 million, which was placed in escrow pending the satisfaction of certain closing conditions. The Transaction closed on July 3, 2019 (“Closing date”), for a total consideration of $336.0 million, consisting of $173.0 million in cash and 427,095 shares of restricted Class A Stock with a market value of $379.63 per share and 2,196 shares of restricted Class A stock with a market value of $398.50 per share, for an aggregate market value as of the Closing date of $163.0 million, after taking into account a post-closing cash related adjustment. The fair value of the Transaction is estimated at approximately $317.7 million. Boston Beer funded the cash portion of the Transaction price and paid related fees and expenses through cash on hand and borrowings on Boston Beer’s existing line of credit.
