= 100 × ÷ =


The financial results for the reportable segment of Monster Energy® Drinks demonstrate notable movements over the five-year period ending December 31, 2023. Overall, the segment exhibits growth in both net sales and income before tax, although the segment profit margin shows variability with a downward trend followed by partial recovery in the last year.

Income Before Tax
Income before tax increased from $1,567,022 thousand in 2019 to $2,342,355 thousand in 2023. After steadily rising from 2019 through 2021, reaching nearly $1.99 billion, income before tax experienced a decline in 2022 to $1.85 billion. However, it rebounded significantly in 2023, surpassing prior years and reaching the highest value in the observed timeframe.
Net Sales
Net sales have consistently grown year-over-year, expanding from $3,904,029 thousand in 2019 to $6,555,089 thousand in 2023. This steady increase indicates strong top-line performance, with particularly pronounced growth occurring after 2020, when sales jumped from approximately $4.3 billion to over $6.5 billion by 2023.
Segment Profit Margin
The segment profit margin started at 40.14% in 2019, increasing slightly to 42.29% in 2020. From 2020 onwards, the margin declined notably to 38.16% in 2021 and continued to fall to 31.77% in 2022. In 2023, the margin experienced a partial recovery, rising to 35.73%. Despite this rebound, the margin remained below the initial years, suggesting a potential increase in operating costs or other expenses relative to sales during the middle of the period.

In summary, the segment shows healthy revenue growth and substantial income before tax gains over five years. The profit margin trend implies pressure on profitability margins during the middle years, followed by some improvement in the final year observed. These dynamics may point to strategic adjustments or changing cost structures impacting profitability despite increasing sales volumes.

1 2023 Calculation
Segment profit margin = 100 × Income before tax ÷ Net sales
= 100 × ÷ =


The analysis of the financial data for the "Strategic Brands" segment over the five-year period reveals several noteworthy trends and patterns.

Income Before Tax
There is a general upward trend in income before tax, which increased from $164,049 thousand in 2019 to $207,202 thousand in 2023. Despite a slight decline in 2020, income before tax recovered and grew consistently, reaching the highest value in 2023.
Net Sales
Net sales exhibited a rising trend over the period, with a dip in 2020 from $274,925 thousand to $266,354 thousand, followed by steady growth thereafter. By 2023, net sales reached $376,589 thousand, representing a significant increase compared to 2019.
Segment Profit Margin
The segment profit margin showed a gradual decline over the five years, starting at 59.67% in 2019 and decreasing annually to 55.02% in 2023. This indicates a reduction in profitability relative to sales, despite the growth in absolute income before tax and net sales.

Overall, the segment demonstrated strong revenue growth and increasing income before tax, albeit with a decreasing profit margin percentage. This suggests that while the segment is expanding in absolute terms, certain costs or pricing pressures may be affecting efficiency or profitability ratios.

1 2023 Calculation
Segment profit margin = 100 × Income before tax ÷ Net sales
= 100 × ÷ =


Net Sales
The net sales in the segment demonstrated significant growth between 2022 and 2023. Starting from a value of 101,405 thousand US dollars in 2022, net sales increased substantially to 184,855 thousand US dollars in 2023, reflecting a strong upward trajectory in revenue generation within the segment.
Income Before Tax
Income before tax shows negative values in the available years, with a loss of 31,772 thousand US dollars recorded in 2022, which worsened to a larger loss of 81,405 thousand US dollars in 2023. This indicates an increasing pre-tax loss over the observed period, suggesting growing expenses or other factors adversely affecting profitability despite rising sales.
Segment Profit Margin
The segment profit margin was negative in the periods with available data, declining from -31.33% in 2022 to -44.04% in 2023. This downward trend denotes a worsening profitability ratio, highlighting that losses deepened as a proportion of net sales year over year.
Summary
In summary, the segment experienced strong sales growth from 2022 to 2023; however, this revenue growth was accompanied by increasing losses and deteriorating profit margins. The imbalance between sales growth and profitability suggests cost or expense issues that outpaced revenue increases, leading to a substantial decline in overall financial performance within the Alcohol Brands segment during this period.

Monster Energy® Drinks
There is a consistent and notable upward trend in net sales from 2019 to 2023. Sales increased from approximately $3.9 billion in 2019 to about $6.56 billion in 2023. This represents a strong growth trajectory, with year-over-year increases each period. The most significant absolute increase occurred between 2022 and 2023.
Strategic Brands
Net sales in this segment showed fluctuations but generally an increasing trend over the five-year period. Sales slightly declined from around $275 million in 2019 to approximately $266 million in 2020, followed by steady growth through 2023, reaching roughly $377 million. The recovery and growth post-2020 indicate an improving performance in this segment.
Alcohol Brands
Data for Alcohol Brands begin in 2022, showing initial sales of approximately $101 million, which increased significantly to about $185 million in 2023. This rapid growth in a new segment suggests a recent expansion strategy that is gaining traction, contributing meaningfully to total net sales.
Other
Sales in the Other category have remained relatively stable, with minor fluctuations over the years. Starting from around $22 million in 2019, peaking near $27 million in 2020, and then decreasing slightly in subsequent years to approximately $23 million in 2023, indicating a steady but non-growth focused category.
Total Net Sales
Total net sales have shown substantial growth from 2019 through 2023, rising from about $4.2 billion to $7.14 billion. The total increase reflects the combined positive contributions from Monster Energy® Drinks, Strategic Brands, and the introduction and growth of Alcohol Brands. The data indicate a robust overall sales growth performance with diversification into new segments contributing to this upward trend.

Monster Energy® Drinks
The income before tax from Monster Energy® Drinks exhibited an overall upward trend from 2019 to 2023. Starting at approximately 1.57 billion US dollars in 2019, the figure increased steadily through 2020 and 2021, peaking above 1.99 billion US dollars in 2021. In 2022, there was a decline to about 1.85 billion US dollars, followed by a significant rebound to approximately 2.34 billion US dollars in 2023, indicating strong recovery and growth.
Strategic Brands
The Strategic Brands segment showed moderate, consistent growth over the five-year period. Income before tax rose from around 164 million US dollars in 2019 to over 207 million US dollars in 2023. The growth was steady with minor year-to-year variations, reflecting stable performance and incremental expansion in this segment.
Alcohol Brands
The Alcohol Brands segment only reported income starting in 2022, where a negative figure of approximately -31.7 million US dollars was recorded, worsening to nearly -81.4 million US dollars in 2023. This suggests increasing losses in this segment over the two reported years, indicating challenges or investments that have yet to generate positive returns.
Other
The Other category displayed relatively minor fluctuations throughout the period, with values generally below 7 million US dollars. The income peaked in 2021 at nearly 6.9 million US dollars and dropped to about 3 million in 2022, followed by a slight increase in 2023. These modest variations suggest limited but consistent contributions from this category.
Corporate and Unallocated
The Corporate and Unallocated line consistently reflected sizable negative income before tax values, indicating substantial costs or expenses allocated at the corporate level. The deficit increased from roughly -319 million US dollars in 2019 to a peak of about -450 million US dollars in 2022, then slightly improved to around -403 million US dollars in 2023, demonstrating relatively stable but significant overhead or non-segment expenses impacting overall results.
Total
The total income before tax figure demonstrated general growth from 2019 through 2021, moving from approximately 1.42 billion US dollars to 1.80 billion US dollars. However, 2022 saw a notable dip to just over 1.57 billion US dollars, before rebounding substantially to nearly 2.07 billion US dollars in 2023. This pattern suggests that despite some volatility, overall profitability before tax has increased markedly by the end of the period, with a particularly strong recovery after the 2022 downturn.
