Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] |
Commitments and Contingencies | Commitments and Contingencies Manufacturing Cooperatives The Company is obligated to purchase at least 80% of its requirements of plastic bottles for certain designated territories from Southeastern. The Company is also obligated to purchase 16.0 million cases of finished product from SAC on an annual basis through June 2034. The Company purchased 20.4 million cases and 19.0 million cases of finished product from SAC in the first nine months of 2025 and the first nine months of 2024, respectively.

The Company guarantees a portion of SAC’s debt, which matures in 2028, based on the ratio of SAC’s total liabilities to SAC’s shareholders’ equity as of December 31 of each year. As of September 26, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the ratio of SAC’s total liabilities to SAC’s shareholders’ equity was such that the Company was not required to guarantee any of SAC’s debt. In the event SAC fails to fulfill its commitments under the related debt, the Company would be responsible for payment to the lenders up to the level of the guarantee. The Company does not anticipate SAC will fail to fulfill its commitments related to the debt. The Company further believes SAC has sufficient assets, including production equipment, facilities and working capital, and the ability to adjust the selling prices of its products to adequately mitigate the risk of material loss relating to the Company’s guarantee. The Company holds no assets as collateral against the SAC guarantee, the fair value of which is immaterial to the condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company monitors its investment in SAC and would be required to write down its investment if an impairment, other than a temporary impairment, was identified. No impairment of the Company’s investment in SAC was identified as of September 26, 2025, and there was no impairment identified in 2024. Other Commitments and Contingencies The Company has standby letters of credit, primarily related to its property and casualty insurance programs. These letters of credit totaled $47.5 million on September 26, 2025 and $39.0 million on December 31, 2024. The Company participates in long-term marketing contractual arrangements with certain prestige properties, athletic venues and other locations. As of September 26, 2025, the future payments related to these contractual arrangements, which expire at various dates through 2035, amounted to $141.6 million. As of December 31, 2024, the future payments related to these contractual arrangements, which expire at various dates through 2034, amounted to $135.5 million. The Company is involved in various claims and legal proceedings which have arisen in the ordinary course of its business. Although it is difficult to predict the ultimate outcome of these claims and legal proceedings, management believes the ultimate disposition of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the financial condition, results of operations or cash flows of the Company. No material amount of loss in excess of recorded amounts is believed to be reasonably possible as a result of these claims and legal proceedings. The Company is subject to audits by tax authorities in jurisdictions where it conducts business. These audits may result in assessments that are subsequently resolved with the authorities or potentially through the courts. Management believes the Company has adequately provided for any assessments likely to result from these audits; however, final assessments, if any, could be different than the amounts recorded in the condensed consolidated financial statements.
