BUSINESS COMBINATION | BUSINESS COMBINATION Acquisition of Penelope Description of the Transaction. On May 8, 2023, the Company entered into a definitive agreement to acquire 100 percent of the equity of Penelope, and subsequently completed the acquisition on June 1, 2023 (the “Acquisition”). Penelope, prior to the Acquisition, was a family and founder-owned and operated American whiskey company with a diverse portfolio of high-quality whiskeys in the premium plus price tier. As a result of the Acquisition, the Company enhanced its presence in the growing American whiskey category and expanded its portfolio of premium plus price tier brands. Following the Acquisition, Penelope became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and its financial results are included within the Branded Spirits segment. The aggregate consideration paid by the Company in connection with the Acquisition was $105,000 in cash paid at closing, with further additional potential earn-out consideration of up to a maximum cash payout of $110,800 if certain performance conditions, measured through December 31, 2025, are met. The consideration is subject to customary purchase price adjustments related to, among other things, net working capital and acquired cash. The consideration paid at closing included a preliminary estimated purchase price adjustment. During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company finalized the net working capital adjustments, which decreased the cash consideration from $105,000 at closing to $104,638 at December 31, 2023. The cash portion of the consideration and transaction-related expenses were paid using both cash on hand and borrowings under the Company’s existing credit agreement. See Note 7, Corporate Borrowings, for further details. For tax purposes, the Acquisition was structured as an asset purchase which created additional tax basis in the assets acquired as a result of valuing the assets at fair market value and the purchase price was accounted for in accordance with U.S. federal tax law. Indefinite-lived intangible assets and goodwill are deductible for U.S. income tax purposes. Purchase Price Allocation. The Acquisition was accounted for as a business combination in accordance with FASB Accounting Standard Codification 805, Business Combinations (“ASC 805”), and as such, assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and consideration transferred were recorded at their estimated fair values on the acquisition date. The following table summarizes the allocation of the consideration paid for Penelope to the estimated fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date, with the excess recorded to goodwill.

(a) Intangible assets acquired included trade names with an estimated fair value of $34,000 and distributor relationships with an estimated fair value of $23,700. In accordance with ASC 805, assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and consideration transferred were recorded at their estimated fair values on the Acquisition date. The fair value measurements of tangible and intangible assets and liabilities were based on significant inputs not observable in the market and represent Level 3 measurements within the fair value hierarchy. Level 3 inputs include discount rates that would be used by a market participant in valuing these assets and liabilities, projections of revenues and cash flows, distributor attrition rates, royalty rates, and market comparables, among others. The fair value of work-in-process and finished goods inventory was determined using the comparative sales method and raw materials was determined using the replacement cost method. Goodwill of $95,250, all of which is expected to be deductible for tax purposes, represents the excess of the consideration transferred over the estimated fair value of assets acquired net of liabilities assumed. Additionally, the goodwill is representative of the strength of the Penelope brand within the American whiskey category, and the synergies expected to be achieved by the combined company. The intangible assets acquired included indefinite-lived intangible assets, trade names, which have an estimated fair value of $34,000, and definite-lived intangible assets, distributor relationships, which have an estimated fair value of $23,700 and a useful life of 20 years. The trade names and distributor relationships acquired by the Company have been recorded at estimated fair values using the relief from royalty method and multi-period excess earnings method, respectively. Management engaged a third-party valuation specialist to assist in the valuation analysis of certain acquired assets including trade names and distributor relationships. The operating results of Penelope have been included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements since the date of the Acquisition, June 1, 2023. The operating results and pro forma results are not disclosed due to the immaterial impact to the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income. During the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company incurred $116 and $2,060, respectively, of costs related to the Acquisition, which are included in selling, general, and administrative expenses on the Consolidated Statements of Income. Contingent Consideration. The estimated fair value of the contingent consideration obligation at the Acquisition date was $62,100, which was determined using a Monte Carlo simulation approach. This approach requires significant assumptions, including projected net sales, discount rates, and volatility rates. The inputs used in the calculation of the contingent consideration liability are considered Level 3 under the fair value hierarchy due to the lack of relevant market activity. The contingent consideration liability is measured on a quarterly basis and recorded at fair value. The changes in fair value of the obligation resulted from changes in the key assumptions between measurement dates, such as projected net sales, discount rates, and volatility rates. During the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, there was a $16,100 and $7,100 adjustment, respectively, to the fair value measurement of the contingent consideration obligation, which was included in the change in fair value of contingent consideration on the Consolidated Statements of Income. The amount payable is based upon achievement of certain net sales targets between the Acquisition date and December 31, 2025. The possible payments range from zero to a maximum payout of $110,800.
