Zevia PBC (NYSE:ZVIA) executives said the company made 'transformation progress' in 2025, pointing to improved profitability metrics, expanded distribution, and a stepped-up innovation and marketing pipeline heading into 2026. Management also introduced 2026 guidance that includes a planned discontinuation of the company's tea line and an expected increase in aluminum tariff-related costs beginning in the second quarter.

Why it matters

Zevia's progress in 2025 highlights the company's efforts to adapt its business model and product portfolio to changing consumer preferences for healthier, plant-based beverage options. As a mission-driven public benefit corporation, Zevia's ability to navigate industry challenges and maintain growth is a testament to the resilience of its brand and business strategy.

The details

For full-year 2025, Zevia reported net sales of $161.3 million, up 4% year over year, driven by higher volumes associated with distribution expansion at Walmart. The company also improved adjusted EBITDA threefold to a loss of $4.7 million and more than halved its net loss to $11.1 million. In the fourth quarter, net sales decreased 4% due to lapping a pipeline fill at Walmart and reduced promotional activity, but profitability improved sharply with adjusted EBITDA reaching break-even.
