[8-K] Celsius Holdings, Inc. Reports Material Event

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Celsius Holdings, Inc. entered into a series of transactions with PepsiCo, Inc. under which PepsiCo previously purchased 1,466,666 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and, on the Closing Date, purchased 390,000 shares of newly created Series B Convertible Preferred Stock for an aggregate purchase price of $585.0 million in cash. Each share of Series B is initially convertible into 11,304,348 shares of common stock (on an as-converted basis). The parties amended and restated the registration rights agreement to include the common stock issuable on conversion of Series B and preserved customary demand, resale and piggyback registration rights for PepsiCo. PepsiCo became the Company’s exclusive U.S. distributor for certain beverage products in the defined territory under an amended distribution agreement, and a channel transition agreement covers transfer of certain existing Alani Nu distribution rights and related financial commitments. The Board was increased from nine to ten members and Michael Del Pozzo was appointed as a PepsiCo designee; board designation rights for PepsiCo are subject to ownership thresholds. Several definitive agreements and certificates were executed and filed as exhibits.

Positive

• Significant cash infusion: PepsiCo paid $585.0 million for Series B Preferred Stock, providing material liquidity to the company.
• Strategic distribution partnership: PepsiCo became the exclusive U.S. distributor for certain Celsius beverage products in the defined Territory, potentially expanding market access.
• Registration rights expanded: The amended and restated registration rights agreement includes common stock issuable on conversion of Series B, enabling resale opportunities.

Negative

• Board influence tied to ownership: PepsiCo obtains board designation rights contingent on as-converted ownership, increasing commercial partner influence over governance.
• Conversion ratio dilution risk: Each Series B share is convertible into 11,304,348 common shares, which could materially dilute existing shareholders if converted.
• Distribution termination triggers: The Captaincy and distribution arrangements may be terminated if contractual market share metrics are not met or upon certain breaches.

Insights

M&A Specialist

TL;DR Strategic partner PepsiCo made a substantial equity and distribution commitment via preferred-stock financing and distribution agreements.

The transaction documents show a significant strategic alignment: PepsiCo purchased $585.0 million of Series B convertible preferred shares and holds Series A preferred shares, while receiving expanded distribution rights and registration rights for resale of converted common stock. The convertible feature and amended registration rights indicate PepsiCo seeks potential equity participation along with commercial distribution control. Board expansion and a PepsiCo designee reflect governance influence tied to share ownership thresholds. The channel transition agreement and working capital adjustment tied to an acquisition (Rockstar) reflect integrated commercial and transactional mechanics rather than standalone financing.

Corporate Governance Expert

TL;DR Governance changes grant PepsiCo board access and registration rights tied to conversion economics and ownership levels.

The Series B Certificate explicitly links PepsiCo’s board designation rights to as-converted share ownership thresholds and limits the number of designees as ownership changes or upon termination events. The company increased board size and appointed Michael Del Pozzo as a designee, who will serve until the 2026 annual meeting and will not receive compensation for board service. Indemnification arrangements for the new director are confirmed. These provisions materially affect board composition and investor governance dynamics.

Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Securities Purchase Agreement

On August 28, 2025 (the “Closing Date”), the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement with PepsiCo (the “Series B Purchase Agreement”), pursuant to which, on such date, the Company issued and sold to PepsiCo, and PepsiCo purchased from the Company, in a private placement exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), 390,000 shares of a newly created series of the Company’s preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share, designated as “Series B Convertible Preferred Stock” (the “Series B Preferred Stock” and, together with the Series A Preferred Stock, the “Preferred Stock”), for an aggregate purchase price of $585.0 million in cash. Subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, as set forth in the Certificate of Designation of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, setting forth the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions applicable to the Series B Preferred Stock (the “Series B Certificate”), each share of Series B Preferred Stock is initially convertible into 11,304,348 shares of Common Stock.

Pursuant to the Series B Purchase Agreement, the Company has granted PepsiCo the right to currently designate two persons (each, a “PepsiCo Designee”) to be nominated by PepsiCo for election to the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”), which number of directors may, in certain circumstances, be ratably increased upon a subsequent expansion of the number of persons serving on the Board. Upon the earlier of (i) PepsiCo, together with its affiliates, ceasing to beneficially own at least 31,639,121 shares of Common Stock (determined on an as-converted basis) and (ii) the termination of the Captaincy, PepsiCo will have the right to designate only one PepsiCo Designee; and, if PepsiCo, together with its affiliates, ceases to own at least 10,999,995 shares of Common Stock (determined on an as-converted basis), then PepsiCo’s Board designation rights will terminate in their entirety. As previously reported, the Original Purchase Agreement provided PepsiCo the right to designate a single PepsiCo Designee, and such person currently serves on the Board and constitutes one of the two PepsiCo Designees under the Series B Purchase Agreement. On the Closing Date, the Company increased the size of the Board from nine to 10 members, with Michael Del Pozzo appointed to the Board as the second PepsiCo Designee to serve for a term expiring at the Company’s 2026 annual meeting of stockholders.

Additionally, pursuant to the Series B Purchase Agreement: (i) the Company granted to PepsiCo certain customary information rights and preemptive rights; and (ii) PepsiCo has agreed to certain limitations with respect to its aggregate beneficial ownership of Common Stock and, for a period of seven years, to certain standstill restrictions with respect to its and its affiliates’ acquisition of any voting securities of the Company, subject to certain exceptions. The Series B Purchase Agreement also contains customary representations, warranties and covenants of the parties.

In accordance with the Series B Purchase Agreement, on the Closing Date, the Company: (i) filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada the Series B Certificate; (ii) filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada a Certificate of Amendment (the “Certificate of Amendment”) to the Designation of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock of Celsius Holdings, Inc. (the “Series A Certificate”) (as described in Item 5.03 of this Current Report on Form 8-K); and (iii) entered into an amended and restated registration rights agreement with PepsiCo (the “A&R Registration Rights Agreement”).

Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement

On the Closing Date, the Company entered into the A&R Registration Rights Agreement with PepsiCo relating to the registered resale under the Securities Act of the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Stock (the “Registrable Securities”). The A&R Registration Rights Agreement amends and restates in its entirety the Original Registration Rights Agreement predominantly to include within the definition of “Registrable Securities” the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock. The other material terms and covenants contained in the Original Registration Rights Agreement, including the customary demand, resale, and piggyback registration rights granted to PepsiCo thereunder, remain in full force and effect in the A&R Registration Rights Agreement.

Transaction Agreement – Rockstar Energy Acquisition and Captaincy

On Closing Date, the Company entered into a transaction agreement (the “Transaction Agreement”) with PepsiCo, pursuant to which (i) the Company acquired certain assets, and assumed certain liabilities, comprising the Rockstar Energy brand in the U.S. and Canada (the “Rockstar Acquisition” and, together with the Captaincy, the “Transactions”) and (ii) the Company and PepsiCo commenced the Captaincy. On the Closing Date, the Company paid PepsiCo an aggregate purchase price of $585.0 million in cash in respect of the Transactions, the A&R U.S. Distribution Agreement and the A&R Canada Distribution Agreement (as defined in Item 8.01 to this Current Report on Form 8-K), subject to a customary working capital adjustment in respect of the Rockstar Acquisition. The Captaincy commenced on the Closing Date and will continue during the term of the A&R U.S. Distribution Agreement, subject to earlier termination (i) by the parties by mutual consent, (ii) by the Company in the event of certain breaches of the Transaction Agreement by PepsiCo, or (iii) by PepsiCo in the event that the Company’s products distributed by PepsiCo fail to maintain certain market share metrics, in each case as set forth in the Transaction Agreement. The Transaction Agreement also contains customary representations, warranties, and agreements of the Company and other obligations of the Company and PepsiCo.

Amended and Restated U.S. Distribution Agreement

On the Closing Date, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Distribution Agreement (the “A&R U.S. Distribution Agreement”) with Celsius, Inc., Alani Nu, Celsius Brands LLC, a Nevada limited liability company and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, and PepsiCo, which amends and restates in its entirety the Original Distribution Agreement, predominantly to provide for PepsiCo’s distribution of Alani Nu and Rockstar Energy products (in addition to existing Celsius products) within the Territory. The other material terms and covenants, including termination provisions, contained in the Original Distribution Agreement remain in full force and effect in the A&R U.S. Distribution Agreement.

Item 5.03. Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.

Series B Preferred Stock

In connection with the issuance and sale of the Series B Preferred Stock pursuant to the Series B Purchase Agreement, the Board approved the Series B Certificate, which the Company filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada on the Closing Date.

The Series B Certificate designates and authorizes the issuance of up to 390,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock, all of which were issued and sold to PepsiCo under the Series B Purchase Agreement and are initially convertible at the rate of 28.99 shares of the Company’s Common Stock for each share of Series B Preferred Stock. The Series B Preferred Stock ranks, with respect to distribution rights and rights on liquidation, winding-up and dissolution, (i) senior and in priority of payment to the Common Stock, (ii) senior to any class or series of capital stock of the Company expressly designated as ranking by its terms junior to the Series B Preferred Stock, (iii) on parity with the Series A Preferred Stock and any class or series of capital stock of the Company expressly designated as ranking on parity with the Series B Preferred Stock, and (iv) junior to any class or series of capital stock of the Company expressly designated as ranking senior to the Series B Preferred Stock.

Upon any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Company (but excluding any change of control), each holder of Series B Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive an amount per share of Series B Preferred Stock equal to the Liquidation Preference, as defined in the Series B Certificate. Holders of shares of Series B Preferred Stock will be entitled to cumulative dividends, which will be payable quarterly in arrears either in cash, in-kind, or a combination thereof at the Company’s election.

Dividends will accrue on each share of Series B Preferred Stock at the rate of 5.00% per annum, subject to adjustment as set forth in the Series B Certificate. In addition to such quarterly regular dividends, such shares of Series B Preferred Stock are entitled to participate in dividends paid to holders of Common Stock.

The shares of Series B Preferred Stock are convertible into shares of Common Stock at the then-applicable conversion ratio automatically or at the option of the Company at certain times and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Series B Certificate. In addition, the shares of Series B Preferred Stock are redeemable at the option of the Company or the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock at certain times and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Series B Certificate.

The Series B Preferred Stock confers no voting rights on holders, except as otherwise required by applicable law, and with respect to matters that adversely change the powers, preferences, privileges, rights or restrictions given to the Series B Preferred Stock or provided for its benefit, or would result in securities that would be senior to or pari passu with the Series B Preferred Stock.

Certificate of Amendment to Series A Preferred Stock Certificate of Designation

In connection with issuance and sale of the Series B Preferred Stock, the Board adopted resolutions approving a Certificate of Amendment to the Series A Certificate, which Certificate of Amendment was approved by PepsiCo, as the sole holder of shares of Series A Preferred Stock, and filed by the Company with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada on the Closing Date. The Certificate of Amendment amends the Series A Certificate solely to align certain terms contained therein to those contained in the Series B Certificate, including updating the definition of “Distribution Agreement” to refer to the A&R U.S. Distribution Agreement, and amending certain dates related to redemption and conversion to match those included in the Series B Certificate.

The foregoing descriptions of the Series B Certificate and the Certificate of Amendment are only summaries and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the Series B Certificate and the Certificate of Amendment, which are filed as Exhibit 3.1 and Exhibit 3.2, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated by reference in this Item 5.03.
