1. Celsius Holdings Inc (CELH)

Celsius Holdings, Inc. develops, processes, markets, distributes and sells functional drinks and liquid supplements in North America, Europe, Asia, and internationally. It offers various carbonated and non-carbonated functional energy drinks under the CELSIUS Originals name; dietary supplements in carbonated flavors under the CELSIUS HEAT name; and branched-chain amino acids functional energy drink that fuels muscle recovery under the CELSIUS BCCA+ENERGY name.

Fundamental Analysis

Celsius Holdings' financial position shows temporary headwinds due to PepsiCo's inventory management, impacting near-term sales. However, excluding these transitional factors, the underlying business fundamentals remain strong with continued category outperformance and expanding market presence. The current situation presents a potential entry opportunity, as resolution of inventory issues and category growth recovery could drive significant stock appreciation.

Key Catalysts:

• Strategic Acquisition of Big Beverages Contract Manufacturing

• PepsiCo distribution partnership optimization nearing completion

• Strong growth in non-PepsiCo channels

• Investment in marketing and AI capabilities

• Potential increased stake from PepsiCo

Market Dynamics: The energy drink sector maintains robust growth potential, with CELH positioned as a leading better-for-you alternative. While the broader category experiences a temporary slowdown, CELH's operational improvements and strategic partnerships make it well-positioned for recovery. The company's focus on production capacity expansion and distribution optimization differentiates it from competitors.

Challenges:

• Short-term sales pressure from PepsiCo inventory management

• Q4 potential negative impact of ~$15M

• Dependence on overall category growth recovery

• Competitive pressure in the energy drink space

• Need for continued marketing investment to maintain brand momentum
