BOSTON BEER’S ALLEGED MISCONDUCT

Boston Beer is a high-end alcoholic beverage company that produces hard seltzer, malt beverages, and hard cider at its cidery and under contractual arrangements at other brewery locations. On April 22, 2021, Boston Beer announced its first quarter 2021 financial results and provided full-year 2021 earnings per share guidance, estimated to be between $22 and $26.

The truth began to emerge on July 22, 2021, when, after the market closed, Boston Beer reduced its full year 2021 guidance and reducing its expected earnings per share to be between $18 and $22 stating that it had “overestimated the growth of the hard seltzer category in the second quarter.” Following this news, Boston Beer’s share price fell $246.54, or 26%, to close at $701.00 per share on July 23, 2021.

Then, on September 8, 2021, after the market closed, Boston Beer withdrew its 2021 financial guidance and stated that it “expects to incur hard seltzer-related inventory write-offs, shortfall fees payable to third party brewers, and other costs” for the remainder of fiscal 2021. Following this news, Boston Beer's share price fell $21.09, or 3.7%, to close at $538.31 per share on September 9, 2021.
