    Daniel Gold's questions to Zevia PBC (ZVIA) leadership • Q4 2024

    Question

    Inquired about the expected sales growth cadence for 2025, the reasons for the projected Q1 decline after Q4 growth, and the impact of lapping distribution changes and marketing spend timing.

    Answer

    The Q1 sales decline is due to lapping significant distribution losses in mass and club channels and product discontinuations. Growth is expected to return for the full year, driven by new distribution gains, innovation, and marketing initiatives that will have a greater impact in Q2 and Q3. Scan data is already showing positive momentum.
