Organization and Background
NOTE 1 — Organization and Background
Business
Dutch Bros is in the business of operating and franchising drive-thru coffee shops as well as the wholesale and distribution of coffee, coffee-related products and accessories. As of December 31, 2022, there were 671 shops in operation in 14 U.S. states, of which 396 were company-operated and 275 were franchised.
Organization
Dutch Bros Inc. was formed on June 4, 2021 as a Delaware corporation for the purpose of facilitating an IPO and other related transactions in order to carry on the business of Dutch Bros OpCo. The Company is the sole managing member of Dutch Bros OpCo and operates and controls all of the business and affairs of Dutch Bros OpCo. As a result, the Company consolidates the financial results of Dutch Bros OpCo and reports a non-controlling interest representing the economic interest in Dutch Bros OpCo held by the other members of Dutch Bros OpCo. The Company’s fiscal year end is December 31.
As of December 31, 2022, the Company held 100.0% of the voting interest and 35.4% of the economic interest of Dutch Bros OpCo. The Continuing Members held none of the voting interest and the remaining 64.6% of the economic interest of Dutch Bros OpCo.
Initial Public Offering
On September 17, 2021, the Company completed its IPO of approximately 24.2 million shares of Class A common stock at a public offering price of $23.00 per share, which included approximately 3.2 million shares issued pursuant to the exercise in full of the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares. The Company received proceeds of approximately $520.8 million, net of offering costs. The proceeds were used to purchase approximately 10.9 million newly-issued Dutch Bros OpCo Class A common units from Dutch Bros OpCo for approximately $234.4 million. The proceeds were also used to purchase approximately 11.7 million Dutch Bros OpCo Class A common units from the Continuing Members for approximately $253.3 million, and approximately 1.6 million shares of Class D common stock from the Pre-IPO Blocker Holders for approximately $34.4 million.

Reorganization Transactions
In connection with the IPO, the Company completed the following Reorganization Transactions:

Amended and restated the Second Dutch Bros OpCo Agreement to, among other things, effect a recapitalization in which (i) the outstanding Common Units were converted into Dutch Bros OpCo Class A common units paired with an equal number of either Class B voting units or Class C voting units, and (ii) the outstanding Profits Interest (PI) Units were converted into Dutch Bros OpCo Class A common units.
Amended and restated the Company’s certificate of incorporation to, among other things, authorize four classes of common stock.
Acquired Dutch Bros OpCo Class A common units and Class C voting units held by certain pre-IPO Dutch Bros OpCo Unitholders in exchange for shares of Class D common stock.
Contribution of Dutch Bros OpCo Class A common units, Class B voting units, and Class C voting units to the Company in exchange for Class A common stock, Class B common stock, and Class C common stock, respectively.
The Company’s designation as managing member of the Dutch Bros OpCo.
Entered into a Reorganization Tax Receivable Agreement with the Pre-IPO Blocker Holders and an Exchange Tax Receivable Agreement with the Continuing Members (collectively, the Tax Receivable Agreements or the TRAs), which provide for payment by Dutch Bros PubCo to the Continuing Members and the Pre-IPO Blocker Holders of 85% of the benefits, if any, that Dutch Bros PubCo would be deemed to realize (calculated using certain assumptions) as a result of certain tax attributes and benefits covered by the TRAs. For additional information, see NOTE 12 — Tax Receivable Agreements to the consolidated financial statements.

Financial Statements Presentation
The Company’s consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2022 and 2021 and for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021, and 2020 have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC.
Immaterial Correction of Previously Issued Consolidated Financial Statements
Subsequent to the issuance of the Company’s 2021 consolidated financial statements, management of the Company identified an error in application of Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 710, Compensation-General, related to accrued sick leave pay. ASC 710-10-25-7 states that an employer is not required to accrue a liability for nonvesting accumulating rights to receive sick pay benefits. Historically, the Company accrued sick leave pay expense for each employee. As unused sick leave pay does not carry forward and is not paid out upon termination, the accrued liability should not have been recorded.
The Company has evaluated the effects of the corrections detailed in the table below on the previously issued consolidated financial statements, individually and in the aggregate, in accordance with the guidance in ASC 250, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections. The Company has concluded such corrections to be immaterial to its previously issued consolidated financial statements.
While management believes the effect of the error is immaterial to the Company’s previously issued consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2021, and for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, the financial statement line items impacted by this error have been corrected.
The tables below reflect the sections of the Company’s consolidated financial statements that were impacted by the immaterial error.

Significant Accounting Policies
Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries that it controls due to ownership of a majority voting interest or pursuant to accounting guidance for non-controlling interests. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates
The presentation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions, primarily related to long-lived asset valuation, leases, deferred revenue, tax receivable agreements, income taxes, and equity-based compensation that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Although management bases its estimates on historical experience and assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, actual results could differ from those estimates.
Reclassifications
The Company has reclassified certain amounts in prior-period consolidated financial statements to conform to the current period's presentation.
•NOTE 5 — Inventories: components of inventory related to our Blue Rebel energy drink have been reclassified from finished goods to raw materials.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include all short-term highly liquid instruments with original maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase, as well as credit card receivables for sales to customers in company-operated shops that generally settle within two to five business days. The Company’s cash accounts are maintained at various high credit quality financial institutions and may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts.
Fair Value Measurements
The Company applies fair value accounting for all financial assets and liabilities and non-financial assets and liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the consolidated financial statements on a recurring basis. The Company categorizes assets and liabilities, based on the priority of the inputs to the valuation technique, into a three-level fair value hierarchy as set forth below. The three levels of the hierarchy are defined as follows:
Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 – Observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities, quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in inactive markets, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
Level 3 – Inputs that are both unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurements reflecting an entity's estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.
The Company’s consolidated balance sheets include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other current assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities, for which the carrying amounts approximate fair value due to their short-term maturity. The fair value of the Company’s variable-rate credit facilities approximate their carrying amounts as the Company’s cost of borrowing is variable and approximates current market prices, which is considered Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.
Derivative Instruments
The Company manages exposure to fluctuations in interest rates within its consolidated financial statements according to a hedging policy. Under this policy, the Company may engage in interest rate swap agreements to hedge interest rate risk. A swap agreement is a contract between two parties to exchange cash flows based on specified underlying notional amounts, assets and/or indices. The Company does not enter into derivative instruments for speculative purposes.
By using swap instruments, the Company is exposed to potential credit risk. Credit risk is the failure of the counterparty to perform under the terms of the derivative contract. The Company minimizes this credit risk by entering into transactions with carefully selected, credit-worthy counterparties.
Cash Flow Hedges
Cash flow hedges related to anticipated transactions are designated and documented at the inception of each hedge. Cash flows from hedging transactions are classified in the same categories as the cash flows from the respective hedged items.
For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as a cash flow hedge, the derivative's gain or loss is reported as a component of other comprehensive income (OCI) and recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI) on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The gain or loss is subsequently reclassified into net earnings when the hedged exposure affects net earnings, in the same line item as the underlying hedged item on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.
The Company discontinues hedge accounting when:
it determines that the cash flow derivative is no longer effective in offsetting changes in the cash flows of a hedged item;
the derivative expires or is sold, terminated or exercised;
it is no longer probable that the forecasted transaction will occur; or
management determines that designation of the derivatives as a hedge instrument is no longer appropriate.
Refer to NOTE 11 — Derivative Financial Instruments for further discussion of the Company’s derivative instruments.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable, net of allowance for doubtful accounts, consist primarily of royalty revenues, outstanding balances for sales of roasted coffee beans, other retail-related supplies to franchisees, and vendor rebates. The allowance for doubtful accounts is estimated based on the Company’s historical losses, review of specific accounts, existing economic conditions in the industry, and the financial stability of its customers. Accounts receivable are charged off against the allowance for doubtful accounts when they are determined by management to be uncollectible. The Company had no allowance for doubtful accounts at December 31, 2022 and 2021.
Inventories
Inventories, net consist primarily of roasted and unroasted coffee beans, Blue Rebel, accessories, and other retail related supplies. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, with cost being determined by the standard cost method which approximates actual cost on a first-in, first-out basis. The Company records product returns as they are received, and obsolete and slow-moving inventory when identified, as these types of transactions have generally been immaterial to the Company’s historical operations.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment, net are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation. Expenditures for maintenance, repairs, and routine replacements are charged to expense as incurred. Expenditures for major repairs and improvements that extend the useful lives of property and equipment are capitalized. When property or equipment is sold or otherwise disposed of, the asset and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the balance sheet and any gain or loss is included in income (loss) from operations in the accompany consolidated statements of operations. Depreciation is computed on a straight-line basis over the following useful lives:
(in years, except for aircraft)Estimated Useful Life
Software
3
Equipment and fixtures
3 - 7
Leasehold improvements
5 - 15 1
Buildings
10 - 20
_________________
1    Lesser of lease term or useful life
The Company capitalizes costs associated with the acquisition or development of major software for internal use and amortizes the assets over the expected life of the software, generally 3 years. The Company only capitalizes subsequent additions, modifications, or upgrades to internal-use software to the extent that such changes allow the software to perform a task it previously did not perform. The Company expenses software maintenance and training costs as incurred.
Leases
The Company adopted ASC Topic 842 (ASC 842), Leases, as amended, with an effective date of January 1, 2022. Details of the adoption and the Company’s accounting policies related to leases are provided in NOTE 8 — Leases to the consolidated financial statements.
Sale and Leaseback Transactions
The Company has sale and leaseback transactions that do not qualify for sale-leaseback accounting because of deemed continuing involvement by the Company, which results in the transaction being recorded under the financing method. For additional information, see NOTE 8 — Leases and NOTE 9 — Debt to the consolidated financial statements.
Business Combinations
The Company accounts for the acquisition of reacquired franchises from franchisees using the acquisition method of accounting for business combinations. The Company allocates the purchase price paid for assets acquired and liabilities assumed in connection with an acquisition based on the Company’s estimated fair value at the time of acquisition. This allocation involves a number of assumptions, estimates, and judgments in determining the fair value of the following:
Intangible assets, including the valuation methodology, estimations of future cash flows, discount rates, market segment growth rates, assumed market share, as well as estimated useful life of intangible assets;
Deferred tax assets and liabilities, uncertain tax positions, and tax-related valuation allowances, which are initially estimated as of the acquisition date;
Inventory; property and equipment; pre-existing liabilities or legal claims; deferred revenue; and contingent consideration, each as may be applicable; and
Goodwill as measured as the excess of consideration transferred over the net of the acquisition date fair values of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed. All goodwill is allocated to the company-operated shops reportable segment.
Goodwill
The Company reviews the recoverability of goodwill on a reporting unit basis at least annually, as of the end of the Company’s third fiscal quarter, and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. The annual impairment test includes an option to perform a qualitative assessment of whether it is more likely than not that a reporting unit’s fair value is less than its carrying value; the qualitative test may be performed prior to, or as an alternative to, performing a quantitative goodwill impairment test. If, after assessing the totality of events or circumstances, the Company determines that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value, then the Company is required to perform the quantitative goodwill impairment test. Otherwise, no further analysis is required. The Company performed annual qualitative impairment assessments for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021, and 2020, and no impairment charges were recognized.
Impairment of Long-Lived AssetsLong-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset or asset group may not be recoverable. The Company’s assessment of recoverability of property and equipment and finite-lived intangible assets is performed at the component level, which is generally an individual shop, and requires judgment and an estimate of future undiscounted shop-generated cash flows. Estimates of fair values are based on the best information available and require the use of estimates, judgments, and projections. The Company tests for recoverability by comparing the carrying value of the asset (asset group) to the undiscounted cash flows. If the carrying value is not recoverable, the Company would recognize an impairment loss if the carrying value of the asset (asset group) exceeds the fair value. The Company performed an annual qualitative assessment, which indicates no changes in circumstances or triggering events for impairment.
Revenue Recognition
Consolidated revenues are recognized net of any discounts, returns, allowances and sales incentives in accordance with Accounting Standard Codification (ASC) Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers.
Company-operated Shops Revenue
Retail sales from company-operated shops and through online channels are recognized at the point in time when the products are sold to the customers. The Company reports revenues net of sales taxes collected from customers and remitted to government taxing authorities.
Dutch Rewards Loyalty Program
In February 2021, the Company transitioned from a stamp-based card loyalty program to a digital loyalty program (Dutch Rewards). Accessible through a mobile app, Dutch Rewards provides the following key opportunities for customers:
Collect points based on purchases
Convert points to rewards
Rewards can be redeemed for free drinks
Receive birthday awards
Points collected prior to January 1, 2022, if not redeemed for rewards, expired on December 31, 2022. Points collected on or after January 1, 2022, if not redeemed for rewards within 180 days, will automatically expire and be removed from the customers’ accounts. Rewards are earned by redeeming points. Rewards that are not used within six months of issuance will automatically expire and be removed from the customer’s accounts. Separately, birthday awards automatically expire and are removed from the customers’ accounts after eight to 30 days, depending on the specific award.
The Company defers revenue based on the estimated value of beverages for which the reward is expected to be redeemed, net of estimated unredeemed points, rewards, and awards.
The Company will evaluate Dutch Rewards points breakage on a quarterly basis. The Company completed its initial breakage assessment as of December 31, 2022, which resulted in revenue recognized of $7.4 million, including $4.9 million for points collected prior to January 1, 2022 that expired on December 31, 2022.
Birthday awards have been a key part of the program since its inception. Although no breakage accounting entries were booked for birthday awards until December 31, 2022, based on the short duration of the birthday awards, any estimated breakage prior to December 31, 2022 would have been immaterial.
Customers typically use rewards converted from points very promptly. Although no breakage accounting entries were recognized until December 31, 2022 for rewards converted from points, based on the short duration of the rewards converted from points, any estimated breakage prior to December 31, 2022 would have been immaterial.
Gift Card Program
The Company also operates a gift card program and maintains a contract liability for gift cards sold, recognizing revenue from gift cards when a gift card is redeemed. Gift cards do not have an expiration date or a service fee causing a decrement to the customer balance. Based on historical redemptions rates, which are determined by historical redemption patterns, a portion of gift cards is not expected to be redeemed and will be recognized as breakage over time in proportion to gift card redemptions. The Company’s breakage income is not material.
Franchising Revenue
Franchise royalties are computed as a percentage of net franchise sales in most cases, and as a flat monthly fee in other cases. The royalty fee is charged for continuing support of franchisees for training, marketing, and operations services provided by the Company. These services are highly interrelated and so are not individually distinct performance obligations. As a result, these are accounted as a single performance obligation. Revenue from franchise royalties is recognized on a monthly basis.
The Company receives marketing fees from franchisees which are used to promote the Dutch Bros brand. Contributions are based on a percentage of monthly shop sales. Marketing fees are billed monthly. Marketing fees are recognized as revenue and included in franchising and other revenues, while expenditures are included in selling, general and administrative expenses, in the consolidated statements of operations. Expenditures of the funds collected as marketing fees include payments to third parties, personnel expenses, and allocated costs. At each reporting date, to the extent receipts exceed related marketing expenditures on a cumulative basis, the excess fees collected are recorded in accrued expenses in the consolidated balance sheets. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, there were no excess marketing fees recorded in accrued liabilities as cumulative expenditures exceeded contributions.
Revenue from initial franchise fees (franchise fees) are recognized ratably over the term of the franchise agreement, which is generally ten years. Consideration received in advance of performing all significant services is included in initial franchise deposits and recorded as a contract liability. Deferred franchise fees for shops expected to open within a year and one year of amortization of the initial franchise fees are recorded as a contract liability and classified as a current liability.Other franchising revenue, including coffee bean sales, Dutch Bros. Blue Rebel beverage sales, accessories and other sales, are recognized on the date of delivery, net of returns.
Other Revenue
Other revenue includes retail coffee and other food and beverage sales, recognized at the date of sale, net of returns, as well as sales of products through the Company website, recognized at the point in time of shipment to customers, net of returns.
Deferred Revenue
Deferred revenue primarily consists of the unredeemed gift card liability and unredeemed points/rewards from our Dutch Rewards loyalty program, as discussed above. Deferred revenue also includes bean and beverage sales to distributors where the performance obligation has not yet been satisfied as control has not transferred to the customer.
Shop Pre-opening Expenses
Pre-opening expenses incurred with the opening of new company-operated shops are expensed as incurred. These costs include rent expense, wages, benefits, travel and lodging for the training and opening management teams, and beverage and other shop operating expenses incurred prior to a shop opening for business and are included in cost of sales on the consolidated statements of operations.
Vendor Rebates
The Company has entered into food and beverage supply agreements with certain major vendors. Pursuant to the terms of these arrangements, rebates are provided to the Company from the vendors based upon the dollar value of purchases for company-operated shops and franchised shops. These rebates are recognized as earned throughout the year and are recorded as accounts receivable and a reduction to cost of sales in the consolidated financial statements.
Advertising Expense
Advertising costs are expensed as they are incurred. Most franchise shops contribute to an advertising fund that the Company manages on behalf of the shops. Under the Company’s standard franchise agreement, the contributions received must be spent on marketing, creative efforts, media support, or other related purposes specified in the agreement. The expenditures are primarily amounts paid to third parties but may also include personnel expenses and allocated costs. Advertising expense was as follows for the periods presented:
Year Ended December 31,
(in thousands)202220212020
Advertising expense$32,327 $30,652 $18,047 
Equity-based Compensation
The Company has granted time-based restricted stock awards (RSAs) to certain officers and employees in connection with the Reorganization Transactions and the IPO, and restricted stock units (RSUs) to directors and certain employees. The RSAs and RSUs are accounted for as equity-classified awards, and are granted at the fair value of the underlying Class A common stock of Dutch Bros Inc. as of the grant date and vest over the requisite service period.
The cost of the RSAs and RSUs is recognized as expense over the grantee’s requisite service period, and forfeitures are accounted for as they occur. The Company has not granted performance-based awards under its current equity incentive plan.
Income Taxes
The Company is a corporation and sole managing member of Dutch Bros OpCo which is treated as a partnership for tax purposes. In addition to the Company and Dutch Bros OpCo, Dutch Bros OpCo is the sole member of other single member Dutch Bros OpCo entities disregarded for Federal tax purposes, and one subsidiary organized as a C-Corporation.

For Dutch Bros OpCo, taxable income and the resulting liabilities are allocated among the owners of the entities and reported on the tax filings for those owners. The Company records income tax provision, deferred tax assets, and deferred tax liabilities only for the items for which the Company is responsible for making payments directly to the relevant tax authority.
Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws expected to be in effect when such differences are expected to reverse. Such temporary differences are reflected as deferred income tax assets and deferred tax liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. A deferred tax asset is recognized if it is more likely than not that a tax benefit will be realized.
In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will be realized and, when necessary, a valuation allowance is established. The ultimate realization of the deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which temporary differences become deductible.
The Company is required to identify, evaluate and measure all uncertain tax positions taken or to be taken on tax returns and to record liabilities for the amount of these positions that may not be sustained, or may only partially be sustained, upon examination by the relevant taxing authorities. Although the Company believes that its estimates and judgments were reasonable, actual results may differ from these estimates. Some or all of these judgments are subject to review by the taxing authorities.
The Company recognizes the tax benefit from entity level uncertain tax positions if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the tax authorities, based on technical merits of the position. The tax benefit is measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement.
Earnings (Loss) Per Share
Basic earnings (loss) per share of Class A and Class D common stock is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to Dutch Bros Inc. by the weighted-average number of shares of Class A and Class D common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share of Class A and Class D common stock is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to Dutch Bros Inc., adjusted for the assumed exchange of all potentially dilutive instruments for Class A common stock, by the weighted-average number of shares of Class A and Class D common stock outstanding, adjusted to give effect to potentially dilutive elements. Share counts used in the diluted earnings (loss) per share calculations are adjusted for the deemed repurchases provided for in the treasury stock method for restricted stock awards and restricted stock units, and under the if-converted method for the outstanding convertible Class B and Class C common stock, if dilutive.
The basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share calculations for the year ended December 31, 2021 represent the post-IPO period from September 14, 2021 to December 31, 2021 only.
Prior to the IPO, the Dutch Bros OpCo membership structure included common units, redeemable common units, and PI units. The Company analyzed the calculation of earnings (loss) per unit for periods
prior to the IPO and determined that it resulted in values that would not be meaningful to the users of these consolidated financial statements. Therefore, earnings (loss) per unit information has not been presented for the year ended December 31, 2020.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In December 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2022-06, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Deferral of the Sunset Date of Topic 848. The amendments in this update extend the transition relief period for reference rate reform from December 31, 2022 to December 31, 2024. The amendments in ASU 2022-06 apply to all entities, subject to meeting certain criteria, that have contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. ASU 2022-06 was effective upon issuance. The new standard has had no material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers. The amendments in this update provide specific guidance to address diversity in practice related to (1) recognition of an acquired contract liability, and (2) payment terms and their effect on subsequent revenue recognized by the acquirer. The amendments in ASU 2021-08 are applied on a prospective basis, and are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect this standard to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. ASU 2016-13, as amended, replaces the incurred loss impairment methodology in current GAAP with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. For accounts receivable and other financial instruments, the Company will be required to use a forward-looking expected loss model rather than the incurred loss model for recognizing credit losses which reflects losses that are probable. Application of the amendments is through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the effective date. ASU 2016-13, as amended, is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company has completed its evaluation and adoption of ASU 2016-13, as amended, and as of January 1, 2022 had no material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The pronouncement requires lessees to recognize a liability for lease obligations, which represent the discounted obligation to make future lease payments, and a corresponding right-of-use asset on the balance sheet, as well as new disclosure requirements. The Company adopted Topic 842 effective January 1, 2022 using the modified transition approach. For additional information, refer to NOTE 8 — Leases.

NOTE 4 — Shop Acquisitions
During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company repurchased the franchise rights and assets of five shops from one franchise partner in California. For the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company repurchased the franchise rights and assets of seven shops from two separate franchise partners in Washington. The following table summarizes the allocations of the purchase prices to the estimated fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The fair values for the 2022 and 2021 acquisitions are final.

Reacquired franchise rights have weighted-average useful lives of 4.2 and 5.8 years at the time of purchase for the acquisitions made during the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The excess of the purchase price over the aggregate fair value of net assets acquired was allocated to goodwill and is attributable to the benefits expected as a result of the acquisitions, including sales and growth opportunities, and is expected to be fully deductible for tax purposes. Goodwill is allocated entirely to the Company-operated shops segment.
The fair value measurement of tangible and intangible assets and liabilities as of the acquisition dates is based on significant inputs not observed in the market and thus represents a Level 3 fair value measurement. Fair value measurements for reacquired franchise rights were determined using the income approach. Fair value measurements for property and equipment were determined using the cost approach.
The results of operations for the 2022 acquisitions are included in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations beginning on the dates of acquisition. Revenues of approximately $9.3 million and net income of approximately $1.6 million are included in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Leases [Abstract]  
Leases NOTE 8 — Leases
Adoption of ASC 842
The Company adopted ASC 842, as amended, using the modified retrospective transition method with an effective date of January 1, 2022. The modified retrospective approach permits a company to use its effective date as the date of initial application to apply the standard to its leases, and, therefore, not restate comparative prior period financial information. As such, results for reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2022 are presented under ASC 842. Prior period amounts were not revised and continue to be reported in accordance with ASC Topic 840 (ASC 840). Further, disclosures required under the new standard will not be provided for dates and periods prior to January 1, 2022. The adoption of the lease standard resulted in a cumulative adjustment to opening equity of $0.4 million, as provided in the table below.
Subsequent to the Company’s January 1, 2022 adoption of the lease standard, the Company continued to review relevant lease contract elements and improve business processes, which resulted in adjustments to the Company’s adoption entries and presentation. The impacts of the adjustments were recorded during 2022, and are presented in the table below and in the consolidated financial statements.
Upon adoption, the Company recognized operating lease liabilities of $152.8 million based on the present value of the remaining lease payments for existing operating leases, and operating right-of-use assets of $150.7 million, net of reductions for the impacts of deferred rents. As part of the transition, the Company derecognized all landlord funded lease incentives and deemed landlord financing liabilities, including capital assets related to previous sale and leaseback transactions which were remeasured under ASC 842 adoption requirements.
The standard provides several optional practical expedients in transition. The Company elected the package of practical expedients, which permits it to not reassess, under the new standard, the Company's prior conclusions about lease identification, lease classification and initial direct costs. As such, the Company applied the modified retrospective transition method as of the adoption date to those lease contracts for which it had taken possession of the property as of January 1, 2022.
The Company also elected the practical expedient pertaining to land easements and did not elect the practical expedient related to use-of-hindsight. The new standard also provides practical expedients for an entity’s ongoing accounting. The Company elected the short-term lease recognition exemption and also the practical expedient to not separate lease and non-lease components for all its leases.
Upon transition, the Company recorded the following increases (decreases) to the respective line items on its consolidated balance sheet:

Nature of Leases
The Company leases all of its domestic company-operated shops, warehouse facilities, most headquarters buildings, and certain equipment under various non-cancelable lease agreements that expire on various dates through 2042. The Company evaluates contracts entered into to determine whether the contract involves the use of property or equipment, which is either explicitly or implicitly identified in the contract. The Company evaluates whether it controls the use of the asset, which is determined by assessing whether it obtains substantially all economic benefits from the use of the asset, and whether the Company has the right to direct the use of the asset. If these criteria are met, a lease has been identified and if it has a term greater than one year, the Company accounts for the contract under the requirements of ASC 842.
Lease commencement is determined when the Company takes possession of a leased asset, at which time the Company also determines the lease classification as an operating or finance lease. The Company’s real estate leases consist of commercial ground leases (land only) and build-to-suit leases (land and building).
The real estate leases are a combination of both operating and finance leases, depending on evaluation of the lease terms. Generally, the Company’s real estate leases have an initial term of 15 years and typically include two to three renewal options of five-years each. These renewal options are included in the lease term when it is reasonably certain that the option will be exercised. For commercial ground leases, one five-year renewal is included in the Company’s initial lease term calculations. The Company’s real estate leases typically provide for fixed minimum rent payments. For operating leases, the Company recognizes lease expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term from the date the Company takes possession of the leased property. Lease expense incurred prior to lease commencement is included in the calculation of the right-of-use asset. Once a lease commences, the Company records lease expense in cost of sales on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. Variable lease costs generally include payments for additional rent such as real estate taxes, insurance, and common area maintenance, and are excluded from the measurement of the lease liability. Variable lease costs are included in cost of sales on the consolidated statements of operations.
The Company calculates right-of-use assets and lease liabilities based on the present value of the fixed lease payments, including any estimated lease incentives, at lease commencement using its incremental borrowing rate, which is established by a third party, and applied on a portfolio basis. As the interest rate implicit in the Company’s leases cannot be readily determined, the discount rate used to measure the lease liability is equal to the rate the Company would pay on a collateralized basis to borrow an amount equal to the lease payments under similar terms.
The Company expends cash for leasehold improvements to build out and equip its leased premises. For certain leases, a portion of the leasehold improvements and building costs are reimbursed by landlords as landlord incentives pursuant to agreed-upon terms in the Company’s lease agreements. Landlord incentives, if obtained, are received in cash after the Company takes possession of the property, and as the Company meets required milestones during the construction of the property. The Company includes these amounts in the measurement of the initial right-of-use asset and lease liability.

Credit Facility
On February 28, 2022 (the Effective Date) the Company amended its credit facility entered into on May 12, 2021 with JPMorgan Chase, N.A. (the Senior Secured Credit Facility). The amended facility (the 2022 Credit Facility) has a total capacity of $500 million, consisting of a $250 million revolving credit facility, a delayed draw term loan facility of up to $150 million, and a term loan facility of up to $100 million. The revolving credit facility includes sub-limits for issuance of letters of credit and swing line loans of up to $50 million and $15 million, respectively. The 2022 Credit Facility also contains an option allowing the Company to increase the size of the 2022 Credit Facility by up to an additional $150 million, with the agreement of the committing lenders. The 2022 Credit Facility expires five years after the Effective Date.
Upon entering into the 2022 Credit Facility, in February 2022, the Company drew the full $100 million term loan facility and approximately $28 million in revolving loans, and the existing credit facility was repaid and terminated.
Interest on borrowings under the 2022 Credit Facility is based on (a) the Alternate Base Rate plus an applicable margin, or (b) the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate plus an applicable margin, and is payable in accordance with the selected interest rate period (at least quarterly) and upon maturity. Principal payments for the term loans are required on a quarterly basis in accordance with an amortization schedule and upon certain disposition of assets.
The Company is required to pay a commitment fee on a quarterly basis, at a per annum rate of between 0.20% and 0.45% (depending on the Company’s maximum net lease-adjusted total leverage ratio) based on the (i) average daily unused portion of the revolving credit facility, and (ii) the daily undrawn amount of the delayed draw term loan facility. These fees are recorded as interest expense on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.
The 2022 Credit Facility contains financial covenants that require the Company to not exceed a maximum net lease-adjusted total leverage ratio and maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio. The 2022 Credit Facility also contains certain negative covenants that, among other things, limit the Company’s ability to incur additional debt, grant liens on assets, merge with or acquire other companies, make other investments, dispose of assets, and enter into sale and leaseback transactions and swap agreements. Obligations under the 2022 Credit Facility are guaranteed by Dutch Bros OpCo and its subsidiaries, and secured by a first priority perfected security interest in substantially all of the assets of the guarantors.
As of December 31, 2022, approximately $98.1 million and $112.7 million were outstanding on the term loan and revolving loans, respectively, and $137.3 million was available for borrowing on the revolving loans. The term loan bears interest at 6.92% and revolving loans bear interest at approximately 6.87% as of December 31, 2022. The Company was in compliance with its financial covenants as of that date.

Fair Value Measurements
NOTE 10 — Fair Value Measurements
The Company’s consolidated financial statements include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities, for which the carrying amounts approximate fair value due to their short-term maturity. The fair value of the Company’s variable-rate term loan and revolving loans approximate their carrying amounts; these debt instruments are designated as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy, as the Company’s cost of borrowing is variable and approximates current market rates.
The Company has an interest rate swap, which is required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis. Designated as a Level 2 instrument within the fair value hierarchy, the interest rate swap as of December 31, 2022 had a fair value of $3.2 million, and is recorded as an asset on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet.
The fair value of the Company’s interest rate swap was determined based on the present value of expected future cash flows considering the risks involved, including nonperformance risk, and using discount rates appropriate for the duration based on observable inputs.
See NOTE 11 — Derivative Financial Instruments for additional details related to the interest rate swap.

Derivative Financial Instruments
NOTE 11 — Derivative Financial Instruments
From time to time, the Company may enter into interest rate swaps to fix a portion of interest expense. The Company does not enter into derivative instruments for any other purpose other than to manage its risks related to fluctuations in interest rates, and does not engage in interest rate speculation using derivative instruments.
During 2022, the Company entered into a $70 million receive-variable (Receive Leg), pay-fixed (Pay Leg) interest rate swap with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. The interest rate swap matures on February 28, 2027 and has a fixed rate of 2.67% per annum for the Pay Leg. The variable rate on the Receive Leg of the interest rate swap is the one-month adjusted term SOFR rate plus an applicable margin. As of December 31, 2022, the one-month adjusted term SOFR rate was 4.32%. The Company had no derivatives prior to 2022, and as such, no comparable prior years’ information is presented.
The Company typically designates all interest rate swaps as cash flow hedges, and accordingly, records the change in fair value for the effective portion of the interest rate swap in AOCI rather than in current period earnings until the underlying hedged transaction affects earnings. As of December 31, 2022, the Company expects to reclassify a gain of approximately $1.5 million from AOCI to earnings within the next twelve months.

NOTE 12 — Tax Receivable Agreements
In connection with the Reorganization Transactions and the IPO, the Company entered into (i) the Exchange Tax Receivable Agreement with the holders of Class B common stock and Class C common stock (the Exchange Reorganization Agreement), and (ii) the Reorganization Tax Receivable Agreement
with the holders of Class D common stock (the Reorganization Tax Receivable Agreement and together with the Exchange Tax Receivable Agreement, the Tax Receivable Agreements or TRAs). These TRAs provide for the payment by Dutch Bros Inc. or any member of its affiliated, consolidated, combined, or unitary tax group (collectively, the Dutch Bros Tax Group) to such Pre-IPO Owners (pre-IPO Dutch Bros OpCo unitholders and Pre-IPO Blocker Holders) of 85.0% of the benefits, if any, the Dutch Bros Tax Group actually realizes, or is deemed to realize in certain circumstances, as a result of certain tax attributes and benefits covered by the Tax Receivable Agreements. The Exchange Tax Receivable Agreement provides for the payment by members of the Dutch Bros Tax Group to certain Pre-IPO Dutch Bros OpCo Unitholders of 85% of the benefits, if any, that the Dutch Bros Tax Group realizes as a result of (i) the Dutch Bros Tax Group’s allocable share of existing tax basis acquired in the IPO and (ii) increases in the Dutch Bros Tax Group’s allocable share of existing tax basis and tax basis adjustments that will increase the tax basis of the tangible and intangible assets of the Dutch Bros Tax Group as a result of sales or exchanges of OpCo Units for shares of Class A common stock after the IPO, (iii) disproportionate allocations (if any) of tax benefits to Dutch Bros Inc. under section 704(c) of the code as a result of Dutch Bros Inc.’s earlier acquisition of Dutch Bros OpCo Class A common units in connection with the IPO and (iv) certain other tax benefits, including tax benefits attributable to payments under the Exchange Tax Receivable Agreement. The Reorganization Tax Receivable Agreement provides for the payment by Dutch Bros Inc. to the Pre-IPO Blocker Holders of 85% of the benefits, if any, that the Dutch Bros Tax Group realizes as a result of the Dutch Bros Tax Group’s utilization of certain tax attributes of the Blocker Companies (including the Dutch Bros Tax Group’s allocable share of existing tax basis acquired in the Reorganization Transactions), and certain other tax benefits, including tax benefits attributable to payments under the Reorganization Tax Receivable Agreement. The Company expects to benefit from the remaining 15% of any cash savings that it realizes.
The Company expects to obtain an increase in its share of the tax basis in the net assets of Dutch Bros OpCo when OpCo Units are exchanged by Pre-IPO Dutch Bros OpCo Unitholders. The Company intends to treat any redemptions and exchanges of OpCo Units as direct purchases for U.S. federal income tax purposes. These increases in tax basis may reduce the amounts that it would otherwise pay in the future to various tax authorities. They may also decrease gains (or increase losses) on future dispositions of certain capital assets to the extent tax basis is allocated to those capital assets.

The Company recognizes deferred tax assets to the extent, based on available evidence, that it is more likely than not that they will be realized. In making such a determination, the Company considers all available positive and negative evidence, including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, tax planning strategies, and recent results of operations. For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company recorded a valuation allowance on its deferred tax assets, primarily related to the Company’s charitable contributions, of which it does not expect to recognize the benefit from in the foreseeable future. The Company has no deferred tax liabilities.
As of December 31, 2022, the Company had U.S. federal net operating losses of $74.8 million and tax credit carryforwards of approximately $2.8 million. The Company’s federal net operating losses do not expire and tax credits will begin to expire in 2038 if not utilized. As of December 31, 2022, the Company had $64.7 million of state tax net operating losses and no state tax credits. Of the state tax net operating losses, $59.5 million will begin to expire in 2033 if not utilized and the remaining $5.1 million do not expire.
Utilization of net operating losses, credit carryforwards, and certain deductions may be subject to a substantial annual limitation due to ownership change limitations provided by the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and similar state provisions. The tax benefits related to future utilization of federal and state net operating losses, tax credit carryforwards, and other deferred tax assets may be limited or lost if cumulative changes in ownership exceeds 50% within any three-year period. Additional limitations on the use of these tax attributes could occur in the event of possible disputes arising in examinations from various taxing authorities.
There were no interest and penalties accrued for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020. The Company has assessed its tax positions taken and concluded there are no significant uncertain tax positions. The Company has no unrecognized tax benefits as of December 31, 2022 or 2021, that, if recognized, would affect the amount of income tax expense reported.
The Company files returns with the Internal Revenue Service and multiple state jurisdictions, which are subject to examination by the taxing authorities for years 2018 and later. The earlier tax years are subject to examination due to the utilization of net operating losses in recent tax years. None of our federal or state income tax returns are currently under examination by federal or state taxing authorities.

NOTE 16 — Non-Controlling Interests
The Company is the sole managing member of Dutch Bros OpCo, and, as a result, consolidates the financial results of Dutch Bros OpCo. The Company reports a non-controlling interest representing the economic interest in the Dutch Bros OpCo held by the other members of Dutch Bros OpCo. The Dutch Bros OpCo Agreement provides that holders of Dutch Bros OpCo Class A common units may, from time to time, require Dutch Bros OpCo to redeem all or a portion of its Dutch Bros OpCo Class A common units for newly-issued shares of Class A common stock on a one-for-one basis. In connection with any redemption or exchange, the Company will receive a corresponding number of Dutch Bros OpCo Class A common units, increasing the Company’s total ownership in Dutch Bros OpCo. Changes in the Company’s ownership in Dutch Bros OpCo, while the Company retains its controlling interest in Dutch Bros OpCo, will be accounted for as equity transactions. As such, future redemptions or direct exchanges of Dutch Bros OpCo Class A common units in Dutch Bros OpCo by the other members of Dutch Bros OpCo will result in a change in ownership and reduce the amount recorded as non-controlling interest and increase additional paid-in-capital.
The following table summarizes the ownership interest in Dutch Bros OpCo:

NOTE 17 — Loss Per Share
Basic net loss per share of Class A and Class D common stock is computed by dividing net loss attributable to Dutch Bros Inc. by the weighted-average number of shares of Class A and Class D common stock outstanding during the period.
Diluted net loss per share of Class A and Class D common stock is computed by dividing loss attributable to the Company, adjusted for the assumed exchange of all potentially dilutive instruments for Class A common stock, by the weighted-average number of shares of Class A and Class D common stock outstanding, adjusted to give effect to potentially dilutive elements. Share counts used in the diluted net loss per share calculations are adjusted for the deemed repurchases provided for in the treasury stock method for restricted stock awards and restricted stock units, and under the if-converted method for the outstanding convertible Class B and Class C common stock.
The following tables set forth the numerators and denominators used to compute basic and diluted net loss per share of Class A and Class D common stock for the periods presented. The basic and diluted net loss per share for the year ended December 31, 2021 reflects only the period from September 14, 2021 to December 31, 2021, which represents the period from the date of the Reorganization Transactions during which the Company had outstanding Class A and Class D common stock.

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]  
Commitments and Contingencies
NOTE 18 — Commitments and Contingencies
Purchase Obligations
The Company enters into fixed-price and price-to-be fixed green coffee purchase commitments. For both fixed-price and price-to-be fixed purchase commitments, the Company expects to take delivery of green coffee and to utilize the coffee in a reasonable period of time in the ordinary course of business. Such contracts are used in the normal purchases of green coffee and not for speculative purposes. The Company does not enter into futures contracts or other derivative instruments related to its green coffee purchase commitments.
Guarantees
The Company periodically provides guarantees to franchise partners for lease payments. Annually, the Company determines if a liability needs to be recorded related to these guarantees. As of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had guaranteed approximately $1.6 million and $1.7 million, respectively, in franchise partners’ lease payments and has not established a liability for these guarantees as any liability arising from the guarantees is not material to the consolidated financial statements.
Legal Proceedings
The Company is a party to routine legal actions arising in the ordinary course of and incidental to its business. These claims, legal proceedings and litigation principally arise from alleged casualty, employment, and other disputes.
In determining loss contingencies, the Company considers the likelihood of loss as well as the ability to reasonably estimate the amount of such loss or liability. An estimated loss is recognized when it is considered probable that a liability has been incurred and when the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated.
Because litigation is inherently unpredictable, assessing contingencies is highly subjective and requires judgments about future events. When evaluating litigation contingencies, we may be unable to provide a meaningful estimate due to a number of factors, including the procedural status of the matter in question, developments in legislation or regulations that affect the validity of certain claims and defenses, the availability of appellate remedies, insurance coverage related to the claim or claims in question, the presence of complex or novel legal theories, and/or the ongoing discovery and development of information important to the matter.
While any claim, proceeding or litigation has an element of uncertainty, the Company believes the outcome of any of these that are pending or threatened will not have a material adverse effect on its financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.
Liabilities Under Tax Receivable Agreements
As described in NOTE 12 — Tax Receivable Agreements, the Company is a party to the TRAs under which the Company is contractually committed to pay the non-controlling interest holders 85% of the amount of any tax benefits that the Company actually realizes, or in some cases is deemed to realize, as a result of certain transactions. The Company is not obligated to make any payments under the TRAs until the tax benefits associated with the transactions that gave rise to the payments are realized. Amounts payable under the TRAs are contingent upon, among other things, (i) generation of future taxable income over the term of the TRAs, and (ii) future changes in tax laws. If the Company does not generate sufficient taxable income in the aggregate over the term of the TRAs to utilize the tax benefits, then the Company would not be required to make the related TRA payments. As of December 31, 2022, the Company recognized $220.9 million of liabilities related to its obligations under the TRAs, after concluding that it was probable that the Company would have sufficient future taxable income to utilize the related tax benefits. There were no transactions subject to the TRAs for which the Company did not recognize the related liability, as the Company concluded that it would have sufficient future taxable income to utilize all of the related tax benefits generated by all transactions that occurred during the year ended December 31, 2022.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]  
Segment Reporting
NOTE 20 — Segment Reporting
Segment information is prepared on the same basis that the Company’s CEO, who is the chief operating decision maker (CODM), manages the segments, evaluates financial results and makes key operating decisions. The Company’s CEO evaluates the financial performance of the Company based on two operating segments: Company-operated shops and Franchising and other. The Company-operated shops segment includes coffee shop sales to customers. The Franchising and other segment includes bean and product sales to franchise partners and includes the initial franchise fees, royalties, and marketing fees.
The CODM reviews segment performance and allocates resources based upon segment contribution, which is defined as segment gross profit before depreciation and amortization.
All segment revenue is earned in the United States, and there are no intersegment revenues. As the CODM is not provided with asset information by segment, assets are reported only on a consolidated basis.
Selling, general and administrative expenses primarily consist of the Company’s unallocated corporate expenses. Unallocated corporate expenses include corporate administrative functions that support the segments but are not directly attributable to or managed by any segment and are not included in the reported financial results of the segments.
No changes have been made to the Company’s segments during the year ended December 31, 2022. In addition, one customer represented 10% or more of total revenue for the year ended December 31, 2022, while no customer represented 10% or more of total revenues for the years ended December 31, 2021, and 2020.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
Financial Statements Presentation Financial Statements PresentationThe Company’s consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2022 and 2021 and for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021, and 2020 have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC.
Principles of Consolidation
Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries that it controls due to ownership of a majority voting interest or pursuant to accounting guidance for non-controlling interests. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates
Use of Estimates
The presentation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions, primarily related to long-lived asset valuation, leases, deferred revenue, tax receivable agreements, income taxes, and equity-based compensation that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Although management bases its estimates on historical experience and assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, actual results could differ from those estimates.
Reclassifications
Reclassifications
The Company has reclassified certain amounts in prior-period consolidated financial statements to conform to the current period's presentation.
•NOTE 5 — Inventories: components of inventory related to our Blue Rebel energy drink have been reclassified from finished goods to raw materials.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include all short-term highly liquid instruments with original maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase, as well as credit card receivables for sales to customers in company-operated shops that generally settle within two to five business days. The Company’s cash accounts are maintained at various high credit quality financial institutions and may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts.
Fair Value Measurements
Fair Value Measurements
The Company applies fair value accounting for all financial assets and liabilities and non-financial assets and liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the consolidated financial statements on a recurring basis. The Company categorizes assets and liabilities, based on the priority of the inputs to the valuation technique, into a three-level fair value hierarchy as set forth below. The three levels of the hierarchy are defined as follows:
Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 – Observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities, quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in inactive markets, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
Level 3 – Inputs that are both unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurements reflecting an entity's estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.
The Company’s consolidated balance sheets include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other current assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities, for which the carrying amounts approximate fair value due to their short-term maturity. The fair value of the Company’s variable-rate credit facilities approximate their carrying amounts as the Company’s cost of borrowing is variable and approximates current market prices, which is considered Level 2 in the fair value hierarchyThe Company’s consolidated financial statements include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities, for which the carrying amounts approximate fair value due to their short-term maturity. The fair value of the Company’s variable-rate term loan and revolving loans approximate their carrying amounts; these debt instruments are designated as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy, as the Company’s cost of borrowing is variable and approximates current market rates.
Derivative Instruments
Derivative Instruments
The Company manages exposure to fluctuations in interest rates within its consolidated financial statements according to a hedging policy. Under this policy, the Company may engage in interest rate swap agreements to hedge interest rate risk. A swap agreement is a contract between two parties to exchange cash flows based on specified underlying notional amounts, assets and/or indices. The Company does not enter into derivative instruments for speculative purposes.
By using swap instruments, the Company is exposed to potential credit risk. Credit risk is the failure of the counterparty to perform under the terms of the derivative contract. The Company minimizes this credit risk by entering into transactions with carefully selected, credit-worthy counterparties.
Cash Flow Hedges
Cash flow hedges related to anticipated transactions are designated and documented at the inception of each hedge. Cash flows from hedging transactions are classified in the same categories as the cash flows from the respective hedged items.
For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as a cash flow hedge, the derivative's gain or loss is reported as a component of other comprehensive income (OCI) and recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI) on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The gain or loss is subsequently reclassified into net earnings when the hedged exposure affects net earnings, in the same line item as the underlying hedged item on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.
The Company discontinues hedge accounting when:
it determines that the cash flow derivative is no longer effective in offsetting changes in the cash flows of a hedged item;
the derivative expires or is sold, terminated or exercised;
it is no longer probable that the forecasted transaction will occur; or
management determines that designation of the derivatives as a hedge instrument is no longer appropriate.
Accounts Receivable Accounts receivable, net of allowance for doubtful accounts, consist primarily of royalty revenues, outstanding balances for sales of roasted coffee beans, other retail-related supplies to franchisees, and vendor rebates. The allowance for doubtful accounts is estimated based on the Company’s historical losses, review of specific accounts, existing economic conditions in the industry, and the financial stability of its customers. Accounts receivable are charged off against the allowance for doubtful accounts when they are determined by management to be uncollectible. The Company had no allowance for doubtful accounts at December 31, 2022 and 2021.
Inventories InventoriesInventories, net consist primarily of roasted and unroasted coffee beans, Blue Rebel, accessories, and other retail related supplies. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, with cost being determined by the standard cost method which approximates actual cost on a first-in, first-out basis. The Company records product returns as they are received, and obsolete and slow-moving inventory when identified, as these types of transactions have generally been immaterial to the Company’s historical operations.
Property and Equipment
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment, net are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation. Expenditures for maintenance, repairs, and routine replacements are charged to expense as incurred. Expenditures for major repairs and improvements that extend the useful lives of property and equipment are capitalized. When property or equipment is sold or otherwise disposed of, the asset and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the balance sheet and any gain or loss is included in income (loss) from operations in the accompany consolidated statements of operations. Depreciation is computed on a straight-line basis over the following useful lives:

Equipment and fixtures
3 - 7
Leasehold improvements
5 - 15 1

_________________
1    Lesser of lease term or useful life
The Company capitalizes costs associated with the acquisition or development of major software for internal use and amortizes the assets over the expected life of the software, generally 3 years. The Company only capitalizes subsequent additions, modifications, or upgrades to internal-use software to the extent that such changes allow the software to perform a task it previously did not perform. The Company expenses software maintenance and training costs as incurred.
Leases Sale and Leaseback TransactionsThe Company has sale and leaseback transactions that do not qualify for sale-leaseback accounting because of deemed continuing involvement by the Company, which results in the transaction being recorded under the financing method. the Company recognized operating lease liabilities of $152.8 million based on the present value of the remaining lease payments for existing operating leases, and operating right-of-use assets of $150.7 million, net of reductions for the impacts of deferred rents. As part of the transition, the Company derecognized all landlord funded lease incentives and deemed landlord financing liabilities, including capital assets related to previous sale and leaseback transactions which were remeasured under ASC 842 adoption requirements.
The standard provides several optional practical expedients in transition. The Company elected the package of practical expedients, which permits it to not reassess, under the new standard, the Company's prior conclusions about lease identification, lease classification and initial direct costs. As such, the Company applied the modified retrospective transition method as of the adoption date to those lease contracts for which it had taken possession of the property as of January 1, 2022.
The Company also elected the practical expedient pertaining to land easements and did not elect the practical expedient related to use-of-hindsight. The new standard also provides practical expedients for an entity’s ongoing accounting. The Company elected the short-term lease recognition exemption and also the practical expedient to not separate lease and non-lease components for all its leases.
Nature of Leases
The Company leases all of its domestic company-operated shops, warehouse facilities, most headquarters buildings, and certain equipment under various non-cancelable lease agreements that expire on various dates through 2042. The Company evaluates contracts entered into to determine whether the contract involves the use of property or equipment, which is either explicitly or implicitly identified in the contract. The Company evaluates whether it controls the use of the asset, which is determined by assessing whether it obtains substantially all economic benefits from the use of the asset, and whether the Company has the right to direct the use of the asset. If these criteria are met, a lease has been identified and if it has a term greater than one year, the Company accounts for the contract under the requirements of ASC 842.
Lease commencement is determined when the Company takes possession of a leased asset, at which time the Company also determines the lease classification as an operating or finance lease. The Company’s real estate leases consist of commercial ground leases (land only) and build-to-suit leases (land and building).
The real estate leases are a combination of both operating and finance leases, depending on evaluation of the lease terms. Generally, the Company’s real estate leases have an initial term of 15 years and typically include two to three renewal options of five-years each. These renewal options are included in the lease term when it is reasonably certain that the option will be exercised. For commercial ground leases, one five-year renewal is included in the Company’s initial lease term calculations. The Company’s real estate leases typically provide for fixed minimum rent payments. For operating leases, the Company recognizes lease expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term from the date the Company takes possession of the leased property. Lease expense incurred prior to lease commencement is included in the calculation of the right-of-use asset. Once a lease commences, the Company records lease expense in cost of sales on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. Variable lease costs generally include payments for additional rent such as real estate taxes, insurance, and common area maintenance, and are excluded from the measurement of the lease liability. Variable lease costs are included in cost of sales on the consolidated statements of operations.
The Company calculates right-of-use assets and lease liabilities based on the present value of the fixed lease payments, including any estimated lease incentives, at lease commencement using its incremental borrowing rate, which is established by a third party, and applied on a portfolio basis. As the interest rate implicit in the Company’s leases cannot be readily determined, the discount rate used to measure the lease liability is equal to the rate the Company would pay on a collateralized basis to borrow an amount equal to the lease payments under similar terms.
The Company expends cash for leasehold improvements to build out and equip its leased premises. For certain leases, a portion of the leasehold improvements and building costs are reimbursed by landlords as landlord incentives pursuant to agreed-upon terms in the Company’s lease agreements. Landlord incentives, if obtained, are received in cash after the Company takes possession of the property, and as the Company meets required milestones during the construction of the property. The Company includes these amounts in the measurement of the initial right-of-use asset and lease liability.
Business Combinations
Business Combinations
The Company accounts for the acquisition of reacquired franchises from franchisees using the acquisition method of accounting for business combinations. The Company allocates the purchase price paid for assets acquired and liabilities assumed in connection with an acquisition based on the Company’s estimated fair value at the time of acquisition. This allocation involves a number of assumptions, estimates, and judgments in determining the fair value of the following:
Intangible assets, including the valuation methodology, estimations of future cash flows, discount rates, market segment growth rates, assumed market share, as well as estimated useful life of intangible assets;
Deferred tax assets and liabilities, uncertain tax positions, and tax-related valuation allowances, which are initially estimated as of the acquisition date;
Inventory; property and equipment; pre-existing liabilities or legal claims; deferred revenue; and contingent consideration, each as may be applicable; and
•Goodwill as measured as the excess of consideration transferred over the net of the acquisition date fair values of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed. All goodwill is allocated to the company-operated shops reportable segment.
Goodwill GoodwillThe Company reviews the recoverability of goodwill on a reporting unit basis at least annually, as of the end of the Company’s third fiscal quarter, and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. The annual impairment test includes an option to perform a qualitative assessment of whether it is more likely than not that a reporting unit’s fair value is less than its carrying value; the qualitative test may be performed prior to, or as an alternative to, performing a quantitative goodwill impairment test. If, after assessing the totality of events or circumstances, the Company determines that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value, then the Company is required to perform the quantitative goodwill impairment test. Otherwise, no further analysis is required. The Company performed annual qualitative impairment assessments for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021, and 2020, and no impairment charges were recognized.
Impairment of long-lived assets Impairment of Long-Lived AssetsLong-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset or asset group may not be recoverable. The Company’s assessment of recoverability of property and equipment and finite-lived intangible assets is performed at the component level, which is generally an individual shop, and requires judgment and an estimate of future undiscounted shop-generated cash flows. Estimates of fair values are based on the best information available and require the use of estimates, judgments, and projections. The Company tests for recoverability by comparing the carrying value of the asset (asset group) to the undiscounted cash flows. If the carrying value is not recoverable, the Company would recognize an impairment loss if the carrying value of the asset (asset group) exceeds the fair value. The Company performed an annual qualitative assessment, which indicates no changes in circumstances or triggering events for impairment.
Revenue Recognition
Revenue Recognition
Consolidated revenues are recognized net of any discounts, returns, allowances and sales incentives in accordance with Accounting Standard Codification (ASC) Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers.
Company-operated Shops Revenue
Retail sales from company-operated shops and through online channels are recognized at the point in time when the products are sold to the customers. The Company reports revenues net of sales taxes collected from customers and remitted to government taxing authorities.
Dutch Rewards Loyalty Program
In February 2021, the Company transitioned from a stamp-based card loyalty program to a digital loyalty program (Dutch Rewards). Accessible through a mobile app, Dutch Rewards provides the following key opportunities for customers:
Collect points based on purchases
Convert points to rewards
Rewards can be redeemed for free drinks
Receive birthday awards
Points collected prior to January 1, 2022, if not redeemed for rewards, expired on December 31, 2022. Points collected on or after January 1, 2022, if not redeemed for rewards within 180 days, will automatically expire and be removed from the customers’ accounts. Rewards are earned by redeeming points. Rewards that are not used within six months of issuance will automatically expire and be removed from the customer’s accounts. Separately, birthday awards automatically expire and are removed from the customers’ accounts after eight to 30 days, depending on the specific award.
The Company defers revenue based on the estimated value of beverages for which the reward is expected to be redeemed, net of estimated unredeemed points, rewards, and awards.
The Company will evaluate Dutch Rewards points breakage on a quarterly basis. The Company completed its initial breakage assessment as of December 31, 2022, which resulted in revenue recognized of $7.4 million, including $4.9 million for points collected prior to January 1, 2022 that expired on December 31, 2022.
Birthday awards have been a key part of the program since its inception. Although no breakage accounting entries were booked for birthday awards until December 31, 2022, based on the short duration of the birthday awards, any estimated breakage prior to December 31, 2022 would have been immaterial.
Customers typically use rewards converted from points very promptly. Although no breakage accounting entries were recognized until December 31, 2022 for rewards converted from points, based on the short duration of the rewards converted from points, any estimated breakage prior to December 31, 2022 would have been immaterial.
Gift Card Program
The Company also operates a gift card program and maintains a contract liability for gift cards sold, recognizing revenue from gift cards when a gift card is redeemed. Gift cards do not have an expiration date or a service fee causing a decrement to the customer balance. Based on historical redemptions rates, which are determined by historical redemption patterns, a portion of gift cards is not expected to be redeemed and will be recognized as breakage over time in proportion to gift card redemptions. The Company’s breakage income is not material.
Franchising Revenue
Franchise royalties are computed as a percentage of net franchise sales in most cases, and as a flat monthly fee in other cases. The royalty fee is charged for continuing support of franchisees for training, marketing, and operations services provided by the Company. These services are highly interrelated and so are not individually distinct performance obligations. As a result, these are accounted as a single performance obligation. Revenue from franchise royalties is recognized on a monthly basis.
The Company receives marketing fees from franchisees which are used to promote the Dutch Bros brand. Contributions are based on a percentage of monthly shop sales. Marketing fees are billed monthly. Marketing fees are recognized as revenue and included in franchising and other revenues, while expenditures are included in selling, general and administrative expenses, in the consolidated statements of operations. Expenditures of the funds collected as marketing fees include payments to third parties, personnel expenses, and allocated costs. At each reporting date, to the extent receipts exceed related marketing expenditures on a cumulative basis, the excess fees collected are recorded in accrued expenses in the consolidated balance sheets. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, there were no excess marketing fees recorded in accrued liabilities as cumulative expenditures exceeded contributions.
Revenue from initial franchise fees (franchise fees) are recognized ratably over the term of the franchise agreement, which is generally ten years. Consideration received in advance of performing all significant services is included in initial franchise deposits and recorded as a contract liability. Deferred franchise fees for shops expected to open within a year and one year of amortization of the initial franchise fees are recorded as a contract liability and classified as a current liability.Other franchising revenue, including coffee bean sales, Dutch Bros. Blue Rebel beverage sales, accessories and other sales, are recognized on the date of delivery, net of returns.
Other Revenue
Other revenue includes retail coffee and other food and beverage sales, recognized at the date of sale, net of returns, as well as sales of products through the Company website, recognized at the point in time of shipment to customers, net of returns.
Deferred Revenue
Deferred revenue primarily consists of the unredeemed gift card liability and unredeemed points/rewards from our Dutch Rewards loyalty program, as discussed above. Deferred revenue also includes bean and beverage sales to distributors where the performance obligation has not yet been satisfied as control has not transferred to the customer.
Store Pre-opening Expenses
Shop Pre-opening Expenses
Pre-opening expenses incurred with the opening of new company-operated shops are expensed as incurred. These costs include rent expense, wages, benefits, travel and lodging for the training and opening management teams, and beverage and other shop operating expenses incurred prior to a shop opening for business and are included in cost of sales on the consolidated statements of operations.
Vendor Incentives
Vendor Rebates
The Company has entered into food and beverage supply agreements with certain major vendors. Pursuant to the terms of these arrangements, rebates are provided to the Company from the vendors based upon the dollar value of purchases for company-operated shops and franchised shops. These rebates are recognized as earned throughout the year and are recorded as accounts receivable and a reduction to cost of sales in the consolidated financial statements.
Advertising Expense Advertising ExpenseAdvertising costs are expensed as they are incurred. Most franchise shops contribute to an advertising fund that the Company manages on behalf of the shops. Under the Company’s standard franchise agreement, the contributions received must be spent on marketing, creative efforts, media support, or other related purposes specified in the agreement. The expenditures are primarily amounts paid to third parties but may also include personnel expenses and allocated costs.
Stock-based Compensation
Equity-based Compensation
The Company has granted time-based restricted stock awards (RSAs) to certain officers and employees in connection with the Reorganization Transactions and the IPO, and restricted stock units (RSUs) to directors and certain employees. The RSAs and RSUs are accounted for as equity-classified awards, and are granted at the fair value of the underlying Class A common stock of Dutch Bros Inc. as of the grant date and vest over the requisite service period.
The cost of the RSAs and RSUs is recognized as expense over the grantee’s requisite service period, and forfeitures are accounted for as they occur. The Company has not granted performance-based awards under its current equity incentive plan.
Income Taxes
Income Taxes
The Company is a corporation and sole managing member of Dutch Bros OpCo which is treated as a partnership for tax purposes. In addition to the Company and Dutch Bros OpCo, Dutch Bros OpCo is the sole member of other single member Dutch Bros OpCo entities disregarded for Federal tax purposes, and one subsidiary organized as a C-Corporation.

For Dutch Bros OpCo, taxable income and the resulting liabilities are allocated among the owners of the entities and reported on the tax filings for those owners. The Company records income tax provision, deferred tax assets, and deferred tax liabilities only for the items for which the Company is responsible for making payments directly to the relevant tax authority.
Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws expected to be in effect when such differences are expected to reverse. Such temporary differences are reflected as deferred income tax assets and deferred tax liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. A deferred tax asset is recognized if it is more likely than not that a tax benefit will be realized.
In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will be realized and, when necessary, a valuation allowance is established. The ultimate realization of the deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which temporary differences become deductible.
The Company is required to identify, evaluate and measure all uncertain tax positions taken or to be taken on tax returns and to record liabilities for the amount of these positions that may not be sustained, or may only partially be sustained, upon examination by the relevant taxing authorities. Although the Company believes that its estimates and judgments were reasonable, actual results may differ from these estimates. Some or all of these judgments are subject to review by the taxing authorities.
The Company recognizes the tax benefit from entity level uncertain tax positions if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the tax authorities, based on technical merits of the position. The tax benefit is measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement.
Earnings (Loss) Per Share
Earnings (Loss) Per Share
Basic earnings (loss) per share of Class A and Class D common stock is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to Dutch Bros Inc. by the weighted-average number of shares of Class A and Class D common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share of Class A and Class D common stock is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to Dutch Bros Inc., adjusted for the assumed exchange of all potentially dilutive instruments for Class A common stock, by the weighted-average number of shares of Class A and Class D common stock outstanding, adjusted to give effect to potentially dilutive elements. Share counts used in the diluted earnings (loss) per share calculations are adjusted for the deemed repurchases provided for in the treasury stock method for restricted stock awards and restricted stock units, and under the if-converted method for the outstanding convertible Class B and Class C common stock, if dilutive.
The basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share calculations for the year ended December 31, 2021 represent the post-IPO period from September 14, 2021 to December 31, 2021 only.
Prior to the IPO, the Dutch Bros OpCo membership structure included common units, redeemable common units, and PI units. The Company analyzed the calculation of earnings (loss) per unit for periods
prior to the IPO and determined that it resulted in values that would not be meaningful to the users of these consolidated financial statements. Therefore, earnings (loss) per unit information has not been presented for the year ended December 31, 2020.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards and Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In December 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2022-06, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Deferral of the Sunset Date of Topic 848. The amendments in this update extend the transition relief period for reference rate reform from December 31, 2022 to December 31, 2024. The amendments in ASU 2022-06 apply to all entities, subject to meeting certain criteria, that have contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. ASU 2022-06 was effective upon issuance. The new standard has had no material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers. The amendments in this update provide specific guidance to address diversity in practice related to (1) recognition of an acquired contract liability, and (2) payment terms and their effect on subsequent revenue recognized by the acquirer. The amendments in ASU 2021-08 are applied on a prospective basis, and are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect this standard to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. ASU 2016-13, as amended, replaces the incurred loss impairment methodology in current GAAP with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. For accounts receivable and other financial instruments, the Company will be required to use a forward-looking expected loss model rather than the incurred loss model for recognizing credit losses which reflects losses that are probable. Application of the amendments is through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the effective date. ASU 2016-13, as amended, is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company has completed its evaluation and adoption of ASU 2016-13, as amended, and as of January 1, 2022 had no material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The pronouncement requires lessees to recognize a liability for lease obligations, which represent the discounted obligation to make future lease payments, and a corresponding right-of-use asset on the balance sheet, as well as new disclosure requirements. The Company adopted Topic 842 effective January 1, 2022 using the modified transition approach. For additional information, refer to NOTE 8 — Leases.
