Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("US GAAP") for interim financial reporting and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, these financial statements do not include all information and footnotes required by US GAAP for complete financial statements and are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2022, or for any other interim period or any other future fiscal year. The balance sheet as of December 31, 2021 included herein was derived from the audited financial statements as of that date but does not include all disclosures, including certain notes, required by US GAAP that are required on an annual reporting basis. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with US GAAP have been or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. Therefore, these interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 and accompanying notes included in the Company's 2021 Annual Report. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for fair presentation of the condensed consolidated financial statements for the periods presented have been reflected. Principles of Consolidation The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiary, Zevia LLC, that it controls due to ownership of a majority voting interest. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company owns a majority economic interest in, and operates and controls all of the business and affairs of, Zevia LLC. Accordingly, the Company has prepared these condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 810, Consolidation . In connection with the IPO, the Company completed certain reorganization transactions (the “Reorganization Transactions") described in the Annual Report, which were accounted for consistent with a combination of entities under common control. As a result, the financial reports filed with the SEC by the Company subsequent to the Reorganization Transactions are prepared “as if” Zevia LLC is the accounting predecessor of the Company. The historical operations of Zevia LLC are deemed to be those of the Company. Thus, the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report reflect (i) the historical operating results and financial position of Zevia LLC prior to the Reorganization Transactions; (ii) the condensed consolidated results of operations and financial position of the Company and Zevia LLC following the Reorganization Transactions; and (iii) the Company's equity structure for all periods presented. No step-up basis of intangible assets or goodwill was recorded. Reclassifications Certain amounts from prior periods have been reclassified in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) and condensed consolidated statement of cash flows to conform to the current period presentation. For the activity in the periods prior to the IPO and Reorganization Transactions, common stock, additional paid-in capital, and accumulated deficit information has been combined and presented as member’s deficit in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets and condensed consolidated statements of changes in redeemable convertible preferred units and stockholders' equity (deficit). Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss): The following table presents the reclassifications made to the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss): (in thousands) Three Months Ended March 31, 2021 Reclassification Three Months Ended March 31, 2021 (adjusted) General and administrative $ 5,713 $ ( 37 ) $ 5,676 Equity-based compensation — 37 37 Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows: The following table presents the reclassifications made to the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows: (in thousands) Three Months Ended March 31, 2021 Reclassification Three Months Ended March 31, 2021 (adjusted) Non-cash lease expense $ — $ 136 $ 136 Changes in operating assets and liabilities: Right of use asset 136 ( 136 ) — Accounts payable 1,157 43 1,200 Accrued expenses and other current liabilities ( 2,141 ) 1,108 ( 1,033 ) Operating lease liabilities 18 ( 168 ) ( 150 ) Other current liabilities 1,151 ( 1,151 ) — Operating lease liabilities, net of current portion ( 168 ) 168 — Use of estimates The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, as well as the reported amount of net sales and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates made by the Company relate to net sales and associated cost recognition; the useful lives assigned to and the recoverability of property and equipment; reserves recorded for inventory obsolescence; the incremental borrowing rate for lease liabilities; allowance for doubtful accounts; recoverability of intangible assets, realization of deferred tax assets, and the determination of the fair value of equity instruments, including redeemable convertible preferred and common units, restricted unit awards, and equity-based compensation awards. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates compared to historical experience and trends, which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of its assets and liabilities. As of March 31, 2022 , the Company’s operations have been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic to a significant extent with respect to broad-based inflation in input costs, logistics, manufacturing and labor costs. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company experienced supply chain disruptions and a significant inflationary impact, which have created headwinds the Company expects to continue into 2022. The global impact of COVID-19 continues to rapidly evolve, and the Company will continue to monitor the situation and the effects on its business and operations, particularly if the COVID-19 pandemic continues and persists for an extended period of time. Recent accounting pronouncements The Company is an emerging growth company, as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act ("JOBS Act"). Under the JOBS Act, emerging growth companies can delay adopting new or revised accounting standards issued subsequent to the enactment of the JOBS Act until those standards apply to private companies. The Company has elected to use this extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until the earlier of the date that it (i) is no longer an emerging growth company or (ii) affirmatively and irrevocably opts out of the extended transition period provided in the JOBS Act. As a result, the condensed consolidated financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with the new or revised accounting pronouncements as of public company effective dates. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements – Recently Adopted In April 2021, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2021-04, which included Topic 260, Earnings Per Share and Topic 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation . This guidance clarifies and reduces diversity in an issuer’s accounting for modifications or exchanges of freestanding equity-classified written call options due to a lack of explicit guidance in the FASB Codification. This ASU is effective for all entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021. Early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2021-04 as of January 1, 2022. The adoption of ASU 2021-04 did not have a significant impact on the Company's financial statements as the Company does not have freestanding equity-classified written call options. In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12 Income Taxes (Topic 740) Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes . This ASU improves areas of US GAAP and reduces cost and complexity while maintaining usefulness. The main provisions remove certain exceptions, including the exception to the general methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period when a year-to-date loss exceeds the anticipated loss for the year. In addition, the amendments simplify income tax accounting in the areas such as income based franchise taxes, eliminating the requirements to allocate consolidated current and deferred tax expense in certain instances and a requirement that an entity reflects the effect of enacted changes in tax laws or rates in the annual effective tax rate computation in the interim period that includes the enactment date. This ASU is effective for private companies for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2021, and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company adopted ASU 2019-12 as of January 1, 2022. The adoption of ASU 2019-12 did not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements – Not Yet Adopted In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments . This ASU provides for a new impairment model that requires measurement and recognition of expected credit losses for most financial assets held. The ASU is effective for private companies for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company currently does not expect this guidance to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements as it does not have a history of material credit losses. Any other recently issued accounting pronouncements are neither relevant, nor expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements. |
