Zevia PBC (ZVIA)

Simply Wall St Financial Health Rating: ★★★★★★

Overview: Zevia PBC develops, markets, sells, and distributes zero sugar beverages in the United States and Canada, with a market cap of $184.38 million.

Operations: The company's revenue is generated entirely from its non-alcoholic beverages segment, totaling $158.37 million.

Market Cap: $184.38M

Zevia PBC, with a market cap of US$184.38 million, remains unprofitable but has made strides in reducing its losses over the past five years. The company reported second-quarter sales of US$44.52 million, an increase from the previous year, and significantly narrowed its net loss to US$0.697 million from US$5.89 million a year ago. Despite this progress, Zevia's management team is relatively new with an average tenure of 1.7 years, which may impact strategic continuity. Recently added to the S&P Global BMI Index and planning a follow-on equity offering of US$20 million, Zevia shows potential for growth amidst volatility reduction and strong asset coverage over liabilities.
