Boston Beer Company reported a 4.4% revenue decline to $433.9 million in Q1 2026, with shipments down 6.9% and depletions down 4%. The company posted a GAAP net loss of $145.3 million, largely due to a $216 million non-recurring litigation expense related to a supplier dispute. Despite volume declines, gross margin improved by 100 basis points to 49.3% due to pricing, mix, and efficiencies. The company narrowed its 2026 guidance reflecting volume challenges and cost pressures but remains confident in its cash position and brand investments.
