NOTE 2 — Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Financial Statements Presentation

Our condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2026 and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC, consistent in all material respects with those applied in the 2025 Form 10-K and as updated by this Form 10-Q.

We have made estimates and judgments affecting the amounts reported in our condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. 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. This report should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements in the 2025 Form 10-K that includes additional information on accounting estimates, policies, and the methods and assumptions used in our estimates.

In the opinion of management, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly our consolidated financial statements for the periods presented. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026.

Significant Accounting Policies Updates

Except for the items noted below, there have been no material updates to our significant accounting policies during the six months ended June 30, 2026 from those previously reported in the 2025 Form 10-K.

Deferred Revenue

Deferred revenue primarily consists of the unredeemed gift card liability and unredeemed points/rewards earned by customers in connection with a qualifying purchase under our Dutch Rewards loyalty program. 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. Awards issued to customers independent of a purchase requirement, such as complimentary birthday drinks and other promotional awards, do not represent a contract liability, as there is no associated contract with the customer, and are recognized within cost of sales when redeemed by the customer.

Loyalty Program

The Company operates Dutch Rewards, our digital loyalty program accessible via mobile app, which provides customers the opportunity to collect points based on purchases. Points can be redeemed for rewards which include free drinks. Additionally, customers can receive complimentary birthday drinks and other promotional awards within Dutch Rewards.

Points earned and not redeemed for rewards within 180 days automatically expire, and rewards that are not used within 180 days of issuance automatically expire. Separately, complimentary birthday drinks and other promotional awards generally automatically expire after 30 days, depending on the specific award.

Based on historical expiration rates, a portion of points and rewards are not expected to be redeemed. Accordingly, we defer revenue based on the estimated value of beverages for which the points and rewards are expected to be redeemed.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software. The intent of this ASU is to address businesses’ shift from using prescriptive and sequential software development methods to using incremental and iterative development methods. The amendments in this ASU remove all references to prescriptive and sequential software development stages, and also provides criteria for when an entity is required to start capitalizing software costs. ASU 2025-06 is effective for all entities' annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim periods within those annual reporting periods using a prospective transition, modified transition or retrospective transition approach. Early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of an annual reporting period. We are currently assessing potential impacts of this standard on our business processes and future disclosures.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40). The intent of this ASU is to improve public entity financial footnote disclosures around types of expenses in commonly presented expense categories (i.e., cost of sales; selling, general, and administrative expense; and research and development expense). The amendments in this ASU do not change or remove current expense disclosure requirements, but rather 1) impact where this information appears in the notes to the consolidated financial statements and 2) add additional disclosure requirements for certain expense line items appearing on the face of our consolidated statements of operations. ASU 2024-03, as amended, is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently assessing potential impacts of this standard on our business processes and future disclosures.

NOTE 3 — Revenue Recognition

Deferred Revenue

Components of our deferred revenue liability are as follows:

1 Initial unearned franchise fees are recorded as a contract liability, and revenue is recognized ratably over the term of the franchise agreement, which is generally ten years.

Deferred revenue activity was as follows:

1 Revenue deferred includes gift card activations, loyalty app cash loads and loyalty points/rewards earned.

2 Revenue recognized includes redemptions of gift cards, loyalty app cash loads and rewards, as well as breakage.

3 Beginning in 2026, complimentary birthday drinks and other promotional awards, which are not issued in connection with a purchase, have been excluded from the population of deferred revenue activity. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, complimentary birthday drinks and other promotional awards activity of revenue deferred and revenue recognized was approximately $49.0 million and $48.5 million, respectively. This change did not have a material effect on the ending deferred revenue balance.

Revenue recognized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, that was included in the deferred revenue liability balances at the beginning of the period, are shown below.

1 Amounts exclude cash loads and transactions related to our loyalty rewards program.

NOTE 4 — Acquisitions

Asset Acquisition

On January 23, 2026, we purchased certain assets of Clutch Coffee, primarily consisting of leasehold interests for $19.8 million in cash. Clutch Coffee was a regional drive-thru chain with 22 locations operating or under construction in North Carolina and South Carolina. This acquisition was accounted for as an asset acquisition in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations, with the purchase price and transaction costs allocated to the assets acquired based on their relative fair value as of the acquisition date. We are in the process of converting 20 of these acquired locations to Dutch Bros-branded company- operated shops.

NOTE 9 — Debt

Credit Facility

On May 29, 2025 (the Effective Date), we amended and restated our existing $650 million senior secured credit facility with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. The 2025 Credit Facility consists of a $500 million revolving credit facility and a term loan facility of up to $150 million. The 2025 Credit Facility also includes sublimits for letters of credit and swingline loans of up to $100 million and $20 million, respectively. The 2025 Credit Facility expires on May 29, 2030. Interest on borrowings under the 2025 Credit Facility is based on (i) the Alternate Base Rate plus an applicable margin, or (ii) the Term SOFR Rate plus an applicable margin (each as defined in the 2025 Credit Facility).

We are 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 Net Lease-Adjusted Total Leverage Ratio (as defined in the 2025 Credit Facility), based on the average daily unused portion of the revolving credit facility. These fees are recorded as interest expense on our condensed consolidated statements of operations.

The 2025 Credit Facility contains financial covenants that require us to not exceed a maximum Net Lease-Adjusted Total Leverage Ratio and maintain a minimum Coverage Ratio (as defined in the 2025 Credit Facility). The 2025 Credit Facility also contains certain negative covenants that, among other things, restrict our ability to incur additional debt, grant liens on assets, merge with or acquire other companies, make other investments, dispose of assets, and make restricted payments. Obligations under the 2025 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 June 30, 2026, $50.0 million was outstanding on our revolving credit facility, and $430.6 million was available for borrowing, net of $19.4 million in letters of credit, and $146.3 million of principal was outstanding on the term loan facility. The revolving loan and term loan both bear interest at approximately 4.89% as of June 30, 2026, excluding any impacts from our interest rate swap. We were in compliance with our financial covenants as of that date.

Long-Term Debt

Our long-term debt consisted of the following for the periods presented:

1 Represents failed sale-leaseback arrangements, and also in 2025, a consideration payable associated with acquired leases.

Future annual maturities of long-term debt as of June 30, 2026 are as follows:

NOTE 10 — Derivative Financial Instrument

We have a receive-variable (Receive Leg), pay-fixed (Pay Leg) interest rate swap with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. As of June 30, 2026, the interest rate swap had a notional amount of approximately $55.1 million and hedges interest rate risk on the term loan under the 2025 Credit Facility. 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 plus an applicable margin. As of June 30, 2026, the one-month adjusted term SOFR was 3.64%.

Our interest rate swap has been designated as a cash flow hedge, and as such, we record 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 June 30, 2026, we expect to reclassify a gain of approximately $0.4 million from AOCI to earnings within the next twelve months.

Designated as a Level 2 instrument within the fair value hierarchy, the fair value and effect of the derivative instrument included in our condensed consolidated financial statements was as follows:

NOTE 11 — Income Taxes

The effective tax rate for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, was 19.7%, which reflects the US federal statutory rate of 21% on pre-tax income, increased by the impact of state income taxes, offset by the tax benefits of income attributable to non-controlling interests and federal tax credits. The increase in the effective tax rate from 15.9% in the same period in 2025 is primarily due to the increase in our ownership of Dutch Bros OpCo.

The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2026, was 17.5%, which reflects the US federal statutory rate of 21% on pre-tax income, increased by the impact of state income taxes, offset by the tax benefits of income attributable to non-controlling interests and federal tax credits. The increase in the effective tax rate from 12.5% in the same period in 2025 is due to a decrease in the benefit from stock compensation, as well as an increase in our ownership of Dutch Bros OpCo.

Tax Receivable Agreements

In connection with our IPO, we executedtwo TRAs which require payment to certain Dutch Bros OpCo owners of 85% of the income tax benefits, if any, that we actually realize or in some cases is deemed to realize (calculated using certain assumptions) as a result of certain tax attributes and benefits covered by the TRAs.

The TRAs-related liabilities are classified on our condensed consolidated balance sheets as current or non-current based on the expected date of payment under the captions “Current portion of tax receivable agreements liability” and “Tax receivable agreements liability, net of current portion,” respectively.

As of June 30, 2026, our total TRAs-related liabilities were$973.0 million. The changes related to these liabilities were as follows:

1 For 2025, the impact primarily related to state tax rates and adjustments from previous estimates upon finalization of the tax attributes subject to the TRAs. For 2026, the impact is related to the increase in the valuation allowance for charitable contributions that are not expected to be utilized.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 in connection with our Tax Receivable Agreements, deferred tax assets associated with our investment in Dutch Bros OpCo increased $179.0 million due to the exchange of approximately 10.6 million units of our Class A common units for Class A common stock. In addition, during three and six months ended June 30, 2026 the TRA liability increased $166.3 million as a result of these exchanges, all of which occurred in Q2 2026.

NOTE 13 — Non-Controlling Interests

Dutch Bros Inc. is the sole managing member of Dutch Bros OpCo, and, as a result, consolidates the financial results of Dutch Bros OpCo. We report a non-controlling interest representing the economic interest in the Dutch Bros OpCo held by the other members of Dutch Bros OpCo. The OpCo LLC 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 their Dutch Bros OpCo Class A common units for newly issued shares of Class A common stock on aone-for-one basis. In connection with any redemption or exchange, Dutch Bros Inc. will receive a corresponding number of Dutch Bros OpCo Class A common units, increasing Dutch Bros Inc.’s total ownership in Dutch Bros OpCo. Changes in Dutch Bros Inc.’s ownership in Dutch Bros OpCo, while Dutch Bros Inc. 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 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:

1 Non-controlling interest ownership includes approximately 3.1 million Class A common units that were decoupled from Class B common stock; these units can be converted on aone-for-one basis to Class A common stock.

The following table summarizes the effect of changes in ownership of Dutch Bros OpCo on our equity for the periods presented:

The weighted-average ownership percentage for the applicable reporting period is used to attribute net income to Dutch Bros Inc. and the non-controlling interest holders. The non-controlling interest holders’ weighted-average ownership percentage were as follows for the periods presented:

Under the OpCo LLC Agreement, Dutch Bros OpCo is required to make certain distributions to its members with regard to tax obligations. Such distributions paid to members were as follows for the periods presented, and no amounts were payable as of the periods then ended.

NOTE 14 — Income Per Share

The following tables set forth the numerators and denominators used to compute basic and diluted net income per share of Class A common stock for the periods presented:

The following Class A common stock equivalents were excluded from diluted net income per share in the periods presented because they were anti-dilutive:

NOTE 15 — Commitments and Contingencies

Purchase Obligations

We enter into fixed-price and price-to-be-fixed green coffee purchase commitments. For both fixed-price and price-to-be-fixed purchase commitments, we expect 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 for the normal purchases of green coffee and not for speculative purposes. We do not enter into futures contracts or other derivative instruments related to our green coffee purchase commitments.

Guarantees

We periodically provide guarantees to franchise partners for lease payments. As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, we had guaranteed approximately $7.6 million and $7.8 million, respectively, in franchise partners’ lease payments and have not established a liability for these guarantees as any liability arising from the guarantees is not material to the condensed 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.

Any claim, proceeding, or litigation has an element of uncertainty, and an unfavorable outcome may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.

Liabilities Under Tax Receivable Agreements

Under the TRAs, Dutch Bros Inc. is contractually committed to pay the non-controlling interest holders 85% of the amount of any tax benefits that Dutch Bros Inc. actually realizes, or in some cases is deemed to realize, as a result of certain transactions. As of June 30, 2026, Dutch Bros Inc. recognized $973.0 million of liabilities related to its obligations under the TRAs. Refer to NOTE 11 — Income Taxes for additional information.

NOTE 16 — Related Party Transactions

Related party transactions were as follows for the periods presented:

1 See NOTE 11 — Income Taxes for further information.

The Dutch Bros Foundation is a not-for-profit organization founded by our Company that provides grants to other not-for-profit organizations throughout the communities we serve. Our Vice Chair, Chief Financial Officer, Chief People Officer, Chief Legal Officer, and SVP of Brand Marketing serve on the board of directors, our Vice Chair serves as the President, and our Chief Legal Officer serves as the Secretary-Treasurer.

NOTE 17 — Segment Reporting

Segment information is prepared on the same basis that our CEO, who is the CODM, manages the segments, evaluates financial results and makes key operating decisions. Our CEO evaluates financial performance based ontwo operating segments, which offer distinct products and services to different customers: Company-operated shops and Franchising and other. The Company-operated shops segment includes retail beverage shop sales to end consumers. The Franchising and other segment includes bean and product sales to franchise partners, initial franchise fees, royalties, and marketing fees related to the franchise partners, as well as sales of products through our website.

The CODM reviews segment performance and allocates resources based upon segment contribution, which is defined as segment gross profit before depreciation and amortization. Segment contribution is used to monitor and assess segment results compared to prior periods, forecasted results, and our annual operating plan.

All segment revenue is earned in the United States. All intercompany sales amongst the Dutch Bros entities are fully eliminated in consolidation. Further, there are no intersegment revenues. The CODM does not evaluate operating segments using discrete asset information.

Selling, general and administrative expenses primarily consist of 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 our segments during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026. In addition, no customer represented 10% or more of total revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025.

Financial information for our reportable segments was as follows for the periods presented:

1 Segment cost of sales for this presentation excludes the impact of depreciation and amortization.
