Compensation Actually Paid vs. Total Shareholder Return    
Compensation Actually Paid and TSR. As demonstrated by the following graph, the amount of CAP to Mr. Bratcher, Mr. Colo, and Mr. Griffin and the average amount of CAP to the Other NEOs is aligned with our TSR over the five years presented in the table. The reason that CAP aligns with our TSR over the period presented is because a significant portion of the CAP to Mr. Bratcher, Mr. Colo, Mr. Griffin, and the Other NEOs is comprised of equity awards. As described in more detail in “Compensation Discussion and Analysis,” our executive officer compensation program objectives are to align our compensation program with our business objectives
and stockholders’ interests, to reward performance, to be externally competitive and internally equitable, and to retain talent on a long-term basis. In particular, our philosophy is to balance salary and benefits with incentive and equity compensation so that the interests of the executive officers are aligned with those of stockholders.

Compensation Actually Paid vs. Net Income    
Compensation Actually Paid and Net Income. As demonstrated by the following graph, the amount of CAP to Mr. Bratcher, Mr. Colo, and Mr. Griffin and the average amount of CAP to the Other NEOs is generally aligned with our net income over the five years presented in the table. While we do not use net income as a performance measure in the overall executive officer compensation program, the measure of net income is correlated with the measure of Adjusted Operating Income, which we use when setting goals for our STI and LTI programs.

Compensation Actually Paid vs. Company Selected Measure    
Compensation Actually Paid and Adjusted Operating Income. As demonstrated by the following graph, the amount of CAP to Mr. Bratcher, Mr. Colo, and Mr. Griffin and the average amount of CAP to the Other NEOs was generally aligned with our Adjusted Operating Income over the four year from 2020 to 2023 but was not aligned for 2024, as presented in the table. While we use several financial and non-financial performance measures for the purpose of evaluating performance for our executive officer compensation programs, we have determined that Adjusted Operating Income is the financial performance measure that, in our assessment, represents the most important performance measure used by us to link CAP to our named executive officers, for the most recently completed fiscal year, to Company performance.

Non-GAAP Measure Description     Our Company-selected measure is Adjusted Operating Income, a non-GAAP measure, as defined under “Compensation Discussion and Analysis.” Adjusted Operating Income for 2024 was calculated by adjusting our 2024 operating income of $74.4 million for goodwill impairment charges of $73.8 million, the change in fair value of contingent consideration related to our acquisition of Penelope Bourbon LLC of $16.1 million, executive transition costs of $4.1 million, costs associated with unusual items associated with special projects of $2.1 million, impairment of long-lives assets and other charges in connection with the closure of our Atchison, Kansas distillery of $0.1 million, and business acquisition costs of $0.1 million. While we use numerous financial and non-financial performance measures for the purpose of evaluating performance for our compensation programs, we have determined that Adjusted Operating Income is the financial performance measure that, in our assessment, represents the most important performance measure used by us to link CAP to our NEOs, for the most recently completed fiscal year, to Company performance.
