A New Lucrative Distribution Agreement and an Acquisition Are Catalysts for Splash Beverage (SBEV) Shares

Could Splash Beverage’s (SBEV) TapouT Performance Drink Become the Next Monster Beverage?

Good day everyone,

Splash Beverage Group, Inc. (NYSE American: SBEV) is in the beverage industry with a portfolio of brands including Copa di Vino wine by the glass, SALT flavored tequilas, Pulpoloco sangria, and TapouT performance hydration and recovery drink.

Current price $3.09/share (at market close 6-29-22)

After a rocky morning SBEV finished strong. There were over 1.0M shares traded in the Wednesday session. I look for the gains in SBEV shares to continue long term.

Earlier I linked you to eight distribution agreements SBEV had negotiated in just the past three months, before the Save-A-Lot deal. There are additional recent noteworthy distribution agreements.

CEO Robert Nistico commented last month, “Since our announcement in November 2021, when we reported our transformational agreement with AB ONE distributors, we have added 15 new distribution agreements, with 12 agreements in the first quarter alone.” AB ONE is owned by AB-InBev who purchased Anheuser-Busch in 2008. AB ONE serves approximately 50,000 accounts including retail stores, restaurants, bars, and venues across multiple states in the U.S

The AB ONE deal paired with the new Save-A-Lot agreement could propel sales for SBEV dramatically, resulting in yet another triple digit revenue gain for FYE 2022. Both these agreements offer major exposure for SBEV products and while the Save-A-Lot agreement is specific to TapouT, the AB ONE distribution agreement covers TapouT, Copa di Vino, and Pulpoloco Sangria.

The performance/energy beverage market is ready for a new star, Red Bull and Monster have dominated for a long time, and TapouT could be the one. Many of us watched the success of Monster Beverage as its shares climbed from $.50/share to $92.00. SBEV has the know how and experience to make it happen. Splash CEO Robert Nistico used to work at Red Bull. In fact, he was the fifth employee Red Bull ever hired, and rose to VP/General Manger taking Red Bull from a startup to $1.45B in sales.

The Splash Beverage Brands:

TapouT has been at the forefront of Mixed Martial Arts since its inception in 1997. TapouT beverages include a complete line of high-performance sports drinks. TapouT Performance and TapouT Hybrid both feature a 3-in-1 advanced performance formula that delivers hydration and cellular recovery benefits. TapouT performance drinks restore what the body loses through physical exertion with 12 key vitamins, 68 minerals and all 5 electrolytes.

Salt Tequila is naturally flavored 100% blanco agave tequila with a clean and sweet taste. Grown, distilled, and bottled in the region of Jalisco Mexico, each pristine bottle of Salt is the result of hard work, determination, and countless blends. Salt Tequila offers a variety of naturally flavored tequilas including Berry, Citrus and Salted Chocolate varieties.

Copa Di Vino is the leading producer of premium wine by the glass in the United States. A ready to drink wine glass that can go anywhere without the need for a bottle, corkscrew, or glass.

Pulpoloco Sangria is crafted and imported from Spain. It is a light-bodied, fruity, and refreshing sangria made of the best blend of true Spanish ingredients. This product is aseptically filled and packed in a unique eco-friendly catocan. This process allows for the true flavors of authentic Spanish sangria to show and extends shelf life without adding any preservatives.

Each of the SBEV brands have their own website and I encourage you to take a look:

The global beverage industry was valued at $1.5 trillion in 2018 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 3.1%, reaching a market size of $1.9 trillion by 2024 (https://nnw.fm/w1Cx9). The push for non-alcoholic beverages that are healthier and contain zero sugar is expected to be a driving force in the forecast period and beyond.

A New Lucrative Distribution Agreement and an Acquisition Are Catalysts for Splash Beverage (SBEV) Shares

Good day everyone,

Splash Beverage Group, Inc. (NYSE: SBEV) is in the beverage industry with a portfolio of brands including Copa di Vino wine by the glass, SALT flavored tequilas, Pulpoloco sangria, and TapouT performance hydration and recovery drink.

Current price $2.80/share (as of 10:00 a.m. EDT 6-29-22)

SBEV shares are running with a 33% gain over the Monday and Tuesday sessions. In today’s session the shares opened lower at $2.75/share as investors took pause to reap the benefit from this week’s earlier gains. The move looks like a reset from an overbought zone with the current RSI (14) running hot at 75.

Two recent announcements, the acquisition of 80% of Pulpoloco Sangria, a brand SBEV already distributes under license, and a new distribution agreement with Save-A-Lot stores to carry their popular TapoutT performance drink, have investors clamoring to grab a piece of the company.

While both deals are likely to bolster the company financial statements, the Save-A-Lot deal is huge with TapouT eventually being stocked in all 850 of their stores. TapouT is already a popular performance drink but now it will go mainstream. Everyone remembers the success stories of brands such as RedBull and Monster. I want to note that Save-A-Lot made the decision to add this product to their shelves after executives tasted it at a trade show.

As I mentioned earlier, SBEV has an inside ownership position of 24.2%. Over the past two months CEO Robert Nistico has purchased 17,000 common shares of the company’s stock at prices ranging from $1.67 to $2.12/share bringing his total holdings to 1,327,070 shares.

Stay tuned for a full report on SBEV tomorrow.

Good day everyone,

Splash Beverage Group, Inc. (NYSE American: SBEV) is in the beverage industry with a portfolio of brands including Copa di Vino wine by the glass, SALT flavored tequilas, Pulpoloco sangria, and TapouT performance hydration and recovery drink.

SBEV is a fast-growing company in the hot beverage market offering popular innovative products.

SBEV sales growth:

FYE 2019 $1.0M

SBEV shares have been on a fast track the past few trading sessions as investors absorb the significance of a new catalyst just announced by the company. The company has reached an agreement to have their popular performance drink TapouT placed in Save-A-Lot grocery stores in 32 states.

TapouT is an international lifestyle brand that has been at the forefront of Mixed Martial Arts since its inception in 1997. TapouT beverages include a complete line of high-performance sports drinks. TapouT Performance and TapouT Hybrid both feature a 3-in-1 advanced performance formula that delivers hydration and cellular recovery benefits. TapouT performance drinks restore what the body loses through physical exertion with 12 key vitamins, 68 minerals and all 5 electrolytes.

Save A Lot is one the nation’s largest grocery store chains, with more than 850 stores supplied by thirteen distribution centers in 32 states and generates over $4B in sales. Robert Nistico, Splash Beverage Group’s Chairman and CEO, said ” We believe TapouT will see an immediate distribution boost from this Phase 1 deployment, and the agreement holds out the potential for an even greater impact in Phase 2 as we begin to penetrate all 850 Save A Lot stores across the country.”

Splash gained the distribution rights to Pulpoloco Sangria in 2020 and is currently the exclusive importer of Pulpoloco for the United States. Now, in news also just released, the company has signed an agreement to acquire 80% of Pulpoloco Sangria, for an undisclosed sum.

The company has stated they will benefit from the additional layer of margin AND increase their global footprint and revenue. Pulpoloco is packaged in a highly innovative, eco-friendly paper can called the CartoCan. Pulpoloco Sangria is made in Madrid, Spain, following the family recipe of the founder Paul Damon with three variants, Crisp White, Soft Rose,’ and Smooth Red.
