“We are very pleased with our continued momentum during the second quarter. Our strong performance underpins our long-term strategy and the value we bring to our global customer base,” said David Colo, president and CEO of MGP Ingredients. “Sales of brown goods grew 30% from the prior year period, driven by strong demand for our new distillate and aged whiskey. Within our Branded Spirits segment, we completed the acquisition of Penelope Bourbon in June, further strengthening our portfolio of premium plus brands, which grew 29% in sales from the prior year period. We expect our continued investment in premium plus spirits brands to position us well for incremental growth and margin expansion opportunities in the future. Our Ingredient Solutions business generated record sales during the quarter, which continued to benefit from the shift in consumer behavior toward plant-based diets. We believe our strong performance underscores the strength of our business model, and we remain committed to executing against our strategy to create further shareholder value.”

In the second quarter 2023, sales for the Distilling Solutions segment increased 9% to $116.9 million year- over-year, reflecting a 22% increase in sales of premium beverage alcohol, due to higher brown goods sales.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to reporting financial information in accordance with U.S. GAAP, the Company provides certain non-GAAP financial measures that are not in accordance with, or alternatives for, GAAP. In addition to the comparable GAAP measures, the Company has disclosed adjusted gross profit, adjusted operating income, adjusted income before income taxes, adjusted net income, adjusted MGP earnings, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted basic and diluted EPS, as well as guidance for adjusted EBITDA and adjusted basic EPS. The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures should be reviewed in conjunction with gross profit, operating income, income before income taxes, net income, net income used in earnings per share calculation, and basic and diluted EPS computed in accordance with U.S. GAAP and should not be considered a substitute for the GAAP measure. We believe that the non-GAAP measures provide useful information to investors regarding the Company's performance and overall results of operations. In addition, management uses these non-GAAP measures in conjunction with GAAP measures when evaluating the Company’s operating results compared to prior periods on a consistent basis, assessing financial trends and for forecasting purposes. Non-GAAP financial measures may not provide information that is directly comparable to other companies, even if similar terms are used to identify such measures. The attached schedules provide a full reconciliation of historical non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure. Full year 2023 guidance measures of adjusted EBITDA and adjusted basic EPS are provided on a non-GAAP basis without a reconciliation to the most directly comparable GAAP measures because the Company is unable to predict with a reasonable degree of certainty certain items contained in the GAAP measures without unreasonable efforts. Such items include without limitation, acquisition related expenses, restructuring and related expenses, and other items not reflective of the Company's ongoing operations.

(a)Number of bonds outstanding is calculated by taking the principal amount of the bonds divided by the par value.

(b)Average share price is calculated by taking the average of the daily closing share price for the period. If the average share price is less than the conversion price of $96.23620 per share, the impact to EPS is anti-dilutive and therefore the shares were excluded from the diluted EPS calculation.

(c)Impact of conversion is calculated by taking the number of bonds outstanding multiplied by the initial conversion rate multiplied by the average share price. If the average share price is less than the conversion price then the impact of conversion is zero.

(d)The impacts of the Convertible Senior Notes were included in the diluted weighted average common shares outstanding if the impact was dilutive. The Convertible Senior Notes would only have a dilutive impact if the average market price per share during the quarter and year to date period exceeds the conversion price of $96.23620 per share. For the quarter ended June 30, 2023, the average market price per share during the quarter exceeded $96.24 per share; however, the impact to diluted EPS calculation was less than $0.01, which resulted in reported basic and diluted EPS being equal at $1.44. For the year to date ended June 30, 2023, the inclusion of the shares had a dilutive impact and were included in the diluted EPS calculation. For the quarter ended and year to date ended June 30, 2023, the inclusion of the shares had a dilutive impact and were included in the diluted EPS calculation. There was no dilutive impact for the quarter ended and year to date ended June 30, 2022.

(e)Conversion premium in shares is calculated by taking the conversion premium divided by the average share price. If the average share price is less than the conversion price, then the conversion premium in shares is zero.
