Lower MG&A, increased net pricing and favorable mix, partially offset by cost inflation related to materials and manufacturing expenses (including ~$30M of unfavorable impact attributable to MWP pricing), and lower financial volume. Lower MG&A was primarily driven by the cycling ~$30M of integration and transition fees from the Fever-Tree USA, Inc. acquisition in the prior year, cost savings initiatives including lower employee-related costs as a result of our Americas Restructuring Plan and lower marketing expenses, partially offset by costs incurred related to our global modernization ERP system implementation project.

KEY 2026 GUIDANCE ASSUMPTIONS AND DRIVERS*

U.S. Beer Industry / Share*

We continue to expect the full year 2026 US industry volume trend to improve versus the -5% we experienced in 2025.

We expect our balance of year share performance to improve versus the first quarter as we continue to execute our strategy.

Price / Mix

We continue to expect U.S. annual pricing of 1% to 2%, in line with historical averages.

We expect favorable mix impacts due to premiumization.

Midwest Premium

On Midwest Premium, we continue to expect the cost of Midwest Premium to be inflationary in each quarter of the year, with the largest increase currently expected in the second quarter.

MG&A**

We continue to expect MG&A to increase versus 2025 for the remainder of the year, with the largest increase expected in the second quarter driven by incentive compensation expenses.

Shipment Timing

In the second quarter, U.S. financial volumes are expected to be between 6% and 9% lower than 2025, trailing anticipated brand volume trends.

Financial volumes are expected to outpace brand volumes in the second half of the year.

Other Assumptions

Included in our guidance, we will recognize 9 months of NSR and profit contribution as we integrate the Monaco brand portfolio into our network. And as with most acquisitions, we will have higher costs in the first year, as we integrate the Monaco business.

* U.S. Industry performance based on internal estimates

** MG&A represents Marketing, general and administrative

Use of Non-GAAP Measures

In addition to financial measures presented on the basis of accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. ("U.S. GAAP"), we also use non-GAAP financial measures, as listed and defined below, for operational and financial decision making and to assess Company and segment business performance. These non-GAAP measures should be viewed as supplements to (not substitutes for) our results of operations presented under U.S. GAAP. We have provided reconciliations of all historical non-GAAP measures to their nearest U.S. GAAP measure and have consistently applied the adjustments within our reconciliations in arriving at each non-GAAP measure.

Our management uses these metrics to assist in comparing performance from period to period on a consistent basis; as a measure for planning and forecasting overall expectations and for evaluating actual results against such expectations; in communications with the Board of Directors, stockholders, analysts and investors concerning our financial performance; as useful comparisons to the performance of our competitors; and as metrics of certain management incentive compensation calculations. We believe these measures are used by, and are useful to, investors and other users of our financial statements in evaluating our operating performance.

Underlying Income (Loss) before Income Taxes (Closest GAAP Metric: Income (Loss) Before Income Taxes) - Measure of the Company's or segment's income (loss) before income taxes excluding the impact of certain non-GAAP adjustment items from our U.S. GAAP financial statements. Non-GAAP adjustment items include goodwill and other intangible and tangible asset impairments, certain restructuring and integration related costs, unrealized mark-to-market gains and losses, adjustments to the redemption value of mandatorily redeemable noncontrolling interests, potential or incurred losses related to certain litigation accruals and settlements, impacts of settlement charges related to annuity purchases and gains and losses on sales of non-operating assets, among other items included in our U.S. GAAP results (collectively, "Non-GAAP adjustment items"). We consider these items to be necessary adjustments for purposes of evaluating our ongoing business performance and are often considered non-recurring. Such adjustments are subjective, involve significant management judgment and can vary substantially from company to company.

Underlying COGS (Closest GAAP Metric: COGS) - Measure of the Company's COGS adjusted to exclude non-GAAP adjustment items (as defined above). Non-GAAP adjustment items include, among other items, unrealized mark-to-market gains and losses on our commodity derivative instruments, which are economic hedges, and are recorded through COGS within Unallocated. As the exposure we are managing is realized, we reclassify the gain or loss to the segment in which the underlying exposure resides, allowing our segments to realize the economic effects of the derivatives without the resulting unrealized mark-to-market volatility. We also use underlying COGS per hectoliter, as well as the year over year change in such metric, as a key metric for analyzing our results. This metric is calculated as underlying COGS divided by financial volume for the respective period.

Underlying MG&A (Closest GAAP Metric: MG&A) - Measure of the Company's MG&A expense excluding the impact of certain non-GAAP adjustment items (as defined above).

Underlying net interest income (expense), net (Closest GAAP Metric: Interest income (expense), net) - Measure of the Company's net interest expense adjusted to exclude adjustments to the redemption value of mandatorily redeemable noncontrolling interests.

Underlying net income (loss) attributable to MCBC per diluted share (also referred to as Underlying Diluted Earnings per Share) (Closest GAAP Metric: Net Income (loss) attributable to MCBC per diluted share) - Measure of underlying net income (loss) attributable to MCBC (as defined above) per diluted share. If applicable, a reported net loss attributable to MCBC per diluted share is calculated using the basic share count due to dilutive shares being antidilutive. If underlying net income (loss) attributable to MCBC becomes income excluding the impact of our non-GAAP adjustment items, we include the incremental dilutive shares, using the treasury stock method, into the dilutive shares outstanding.

Underlying effective tax rate (Closest GAAP Metric: Effective Tax Rate) - Measure of the Company's effective tax rate excluding the related tax impact of pre-tax non-GAAP adjustment items (as defined above) and certain other discrete tax items. Discrete tax items include certain significant tax audit and prior year reserve adjustments, impact of significant tax legislation and tax rate changes and significant non-recurring and period specific tax items.

Use of Non-GAAP Measures Continued

Underlying free cash flow (Closest GAAP Metric: Net Cash Provided by (Used in) Operating Activities) - Measure of the Company's operating cash flow calculated as Net Cash Provided by (Used In) Operating Activities less Additions to property, plant and equipment and excluding the pre-tax cash flow impact of certain non-GAAP adjustment items (as defined above). We consider underlying free cash flow an important measure of our ability to generate cash, grow our business and enhance shareholder value, driven by core operations and after adjusting for non-GAAP adjustment items, which can vary substantially from company to company depending upon accounting methods, book value of assets and capital structure.

Underlying depreciation and amortization (Closest GAAP Metric: Depreciation & Amortization) - Measure of the Company's depreciation and amortization excluding the impact of non-GAAP adjustment items (as defined above). These adjustments primarily consist of accelerated depreciation or amortization taken related to the Company's strategic exit or restructuring activities.

Net debt and net debt to underlying earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization ("underlying EBITDA") (Closest GAAP Metrics: Cash, Debt, & Net Income (Loss)) - Measure of the Company's leverage calculated as net debt (defined as current portion of long-term debt and short-term borrowings plus long-term debt less cash and cash equivalents) divided by the trailing twelve month underlying EBITDA. Underlying EBITDA is calculated as Net income (loss) excluding Interest expense (income), net, Income tax expense (benefit), depreciation and amortization and the impact of non-GAAP adjustment items (as defined above). Effective

January 1, 2025, on a prospective basis, Underlying EBITDA excludes amortization of cloud-based software implementation costs. This measure is not the same as the Company's maximum leverage ratio as defined under its revolving credit facility, which allows for other adjustments in the calculation of net debt to EBITDA.

Constant currency - Constant currency is a non-GAAP measure utilized to measure performance, excluding the impact of translational and certain transactional foreign currency movements, and is intended to be indicative of results in local currency. As we operate in various foreign countries where the local currency may strengthen or weaken significantly versus the U.S. dollar or other currencies used in operations, we utilize a constant currency measure as an additional metric to evaluate the underlying performance of each business without consideration of foreign currency movements. We present all percentage changes for net sales, underlying COGS, underlying MG&A and underlying income (loss) before income taxes in constant currency and calculate the impact of foreign exchange by translating our current period local currency results (that also include the impact of the comparable prior period currency hedging activities) at the average exchange rates during the respective period throughout the year used to translate the financial statements in the comparable prior year period. The result is the current period results in U.S. dollars, as if foreign exchange rates had not changed from the prior year period. Additionally, we exclude any transactional foreign currency impacts, reported within the other non-operating income (expense), net line item, from our current period results.

Note Regarding Guidance/Non-GAAP Financial Measures - Our guidance or long-term targets for any of the measures noted above are also non-GAAP financial measures that exclude or otherwise have been adjusted for non-GAAP adjustment items from our U.S. GAAP financial statements. When we provide guidance or long-term targets for any of the various non-GAAP metrics described above, we do not provide reconciliations of the U.S. GAAP measures as we are unable to predict with a reasonable degree of certainty the actual impact of the non-GAAP adjustment items. By their very nature, non-GAAP adjustment items are difficult to anticipate with precision because they are generally associated with unexpected and unplanned events that impact our Company and its financial results. Therefore, we are unable to provide a reconciliation of these measures without unreasonable efforts.

During the fourth quarter of 2025, we announced the Americas Restructuring Plan designed to create a leaner, more agile Americas segment while advancing our ability to reinvest in the business and position us for future growth. The plan resulted in $4.4 million of employee-related charges recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2026. The cumulative restructuring charges recorded through March 31, 2026 related to the Americas Restructuring Plan were $33.1 million. These actions are substantially complete and any remaining future charges are expected to be immaterial.

During the three months ended March 31, 2026, we committed to various restructuring actions in the EMEA&APAC segment, including the closure of a small brewery in the U.K. by the end of 2026, alongside other operational changes designed to unlock efficiencies as well as modernize and simplify the segment to fund growth. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, we recorded employee-related charges and accelerated depreciation in excess of normal depreciation charges of $17.5 million related to these actions. We anticipate additional charges related to these committed actions to be approximately $10 million to $15 million, with the majority of these charges to be recorded during the remainder of 2026.

During the three months ended March 31, 2026, we also committed to various cost savings actions designed to optimize our supply chain within the Americas segment which resulted in restructuring charges including accelerated depreciation in excess of normal depreciation charges of $6.5 million. We anticipate additional charges related to these committed actions to be approximately $15 million to $20 million, with the majority of these charges to be recorded in 2026 and 2027.

During the first quarter of 2025, our Americas segment made an investment in Fevertree Drinks plc and hold a minority interest. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, we recorded an unrealized loss of $10.4 million resulting from the change in the fair value of the investment.

The accelerated depreciation in excess of normal depreciation of $17.9 million recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was primarily a result of a third quarter of 2024 decision to wind down or sell certain of our U.S. craft businesses and related facilities within the Americas segment.
