Q1 sales hit record $331M
National Beverage Corp. reported first-quarter net sales of $331 million, up slightly from $329 million last year, driven by price/mix gains despite a minor volume dip.

Q1 FY2026 results
National Beverage's Q1 FY2026 net sales edged up 0.3% y/y to $330.5M, driven by a 4.4% rise in average selling price per case that offset a 3.9% volume drop across carbonated soft drinks and Power+ Brands. Gross profit climbed 2.5% y/y to $125.5M, lifting the margin to 38.0% from 37.2%, while operating income grew 1.8% y/y to $70.8M amid higher marketing costs; diluted EPS held steady at $0.60 on 93,699k shares, aligning with net income of $55.8M. Operating cash flow rose 2.8% y/y to $59.1M, yielding free cash flow of $56.0M after $3.1M capex (derived), boosting cash to $249.8M with $97.3M available on $150M credit lines and no debt.

Strong Q4 sales surge
National Beverage Corp. reported robust Q4 and fiscal year results ended May 3, 2025, with net sales climbing 5.5% to $314 million and operating income up 8.6% to $57.5 million, driven by volume gains in Power+ Brands and carbonated soft drinks. LaCroix innovations like Sunshine, Cherry Lime, and Blackberry Cucumber shipped in Q4, fueling growth amid tough consumer conditions, while summer marketing ramps up with sports partnerships including the Florida Panthers and WNBA teams. Innovation accelerates growth. Forward-looking optimism highlights brand resilience, yet risks from market uncertainties persist as noted in SEC filings.

FY2025 results
National Beverage Corp. posted FY2025 net sales of $1.20 billion, up 0.8% year-over-year, driven by a 1.7% rise in average selling price per case and an extra week, though case volume dipped 0.9% amid softer Power+ Brands demand offset by carbonated soft drink gains. Gross profit climbed to $443.9 million with margins expanding to 37.0% from 36.0%, thanks to lower packaging costs, while selling expenses edged down to 17.4% of sales on reduced marketing. Operating income hit $235.5 million, fueling net income of $186.8 million or $1.99 diluted EPS—reconciled against 93.7 million shares with minimal anti-dilution. Cash from operations swelled to $206.7 million, supporting $36.3 million in capex for capacity and efficiency, yet a $304.1 million special dividend trimmed cash to $193.8 million amid $150 million in available credit. Q4 momentum steadied with pricing lifts countering volume softness in sparkling waters. Unfavorable weather could crimp quarterly sales spikes.
