Jones Soda to target masses
Puget Sound Business Journal (Seattle) - June 9, 2006by Steve WilhelmStaff Writer
Print this Article Email this Article Reprints RSS Feeds Most Viewed Most Emailed
The party: Jones Soda Co., a Seattle-based developer and marketer of trendy carbonated beverages that have given the company cult status.

The deal: On June 2, Jones instantly sold out a $30 million private stock placement of 3.2 million shares, intended to fund Jones' expansion into the $66 billion category for mass-market sodas.



',300,250,-108265,180420,'1','321',-1,-1,'');}else{setTimeout('if(document.pradi 1){document.pradi1.onload()}',200);}">



The Jones Soda Co. board planned the company's June 2 private placement for many months, even though the $30 million stock offering was complete in just hours.

It was the largest single placement in Jones Soda's history, and will fund product development, marketing development and working capital for the company's entry into the mass market, said Hassan Natha, Jones Soda chief financial officer. Until now most of the company's sales have been in the much smaller "New Age" beverage category, which is about $17 billion annually.

"Carbonated soft drink is where we see significant opportunities for growth, and this funding will help us enter that market, and have opportunities to enter it successfully," he said.

How much
Natha said Jones CEO Peter van Stolk and the board started talking 18 months ago about the funding needs for a big foray into the mass market, and slowly decided how much money the company would need to enter that market.

During this period, company executives talked to many large retailers, as well as to the large suppliers that already package Jones products, Natha said.

Jones will continue to depend on independent bottlers for production, although it may partner with some bottlers to invest in necessary equipment.

How to raise it
The decision about how to raise the money was more recent.

"Over the past six to nine months, we had basically arrived at the decision that a private placement was the right route for us to take," he said.

Another option might have been taking on more debt, but the board decided the private placement would be more beneficial for shareholders, he said.

The offering was received so enthusiastically that nearly twice as many buyers were available as there were shares to sell.

The stock sold at a per-share price of $9.50. Many of the buyers were large mutual funds and institutional investors.

Wal-Mart to Sell Jones Soda Cans
Thursday March 8, 6:02 pm ET

By Lauren Shepherd, AP Business Writer

Wal-Mart, Kroger on List of New Retailers to Sell Cans of Jones Soda

SEATTLE (AP) -- Natural soda company Jones Soda Co. on Thursday ended investor speculation about who will sell its premium sodas by unveiling a list of new retailers that includes discount giant Wal-Mart Stores Inc.

Peter van Stolk said in a conference call Wal-Mart will sell the cans at its Supercenter locations. Wal-Mart rival Kmart and grocery stores Kroger, Safeway, A&P, Associated, Shoprite, Pathmark and Harris Teeter also all made the list of new retailers.

Van Stolk said the stores' shelves should be stocked with Jones Soda by Memorial Day. He added that with those retailers, the company will have 25 percent of all retail outlet availability -- a large jump from the 2 percent it held in 2006 when it had a contract with Target Corp. to sell its products.

That agreement expired Dec. 31.

"Clearly this is a very exciting time for our company," van Stolk said in the call with investors.

The news came at the same time the company released its fourth-quarter earnings. Profit more than tripled in the period and sales climbed 15 percent.

The positive news pushed shares up 80 cents, or nearly 6 percent, to $14.75 in electronic aftermarket trading, having closed up 35 cents at $13.95 on the Nasdaq Stock Market.

Since the company first announced it signed a five-year contract with National Beverage to distribute the soda in cans, speculation about who might be on the list of new retailers brought the shares to new highs. Previously, the company distributed its sodas in glass bottles, which restricted which retailers could sell its products.

Van Stolk said National Beverage will distribute about 35 million cases of cans in 2007. He added that the company will add additional retailers over the course of the year.

Jones Soda recently began using pure cane sugar in all its sodas. To pay for the switchover, van Stolk said the company will raise its prices. He added that the new retailers have accepted the price increase but did not specify how much prices will go up.

He did say consumers could see something near a 20-cent difference between a Jones Soda 12-pack of cans and a brand that uses high fructose corn syrup since corn prices are skyrocketing. Both Coca-Cola Co. and PepsiCo use high fructose corn syrup in their sodas.

Canned Laughter at Jones Soda

By Rick Aristotle Munarriz
March 9, 2007

My, those alternative beverage sodas grow up so fast these days. Jones Soda (Nasdaq: JSDA) delivered a great fourth-quarter report yesterday. Earnings more than doubled to $0.08 a share, and revenue inched 15% higher to hit $10 million.

Jones has earned its bones appealing to edgy soda sippers who don't mind paying a premium for the company's eclectic bottled brews with whimsical user-generated photographic labels. Growth in the future? It's in the can.

The canned beverage market will be a major driver for Jones Soda over the next few quarters. Until last year, the company had an exclusive deal with Target (NYSE: TGT) to sell its pop in cans. Target has been a great partner -- especially in promoting seasonal bottled concoctions -- but just 2% of the country's canned soda sales go through Target.

Now that Jones Soda is free to distribute its canned flavors beyond Target locations, it is not wasting any time. The company signed a distribution deal with National Beverage (AMEX: FIZ) that will grow the company's retail reach from 2% of the market to a 25% slice by Memorial Day -- and as much as 50% by the end of next year.

You will be seeing Jones Soda cans hitting chains like Wal-Mart (NYSE: WMT) Supercenters, Kroger (NYSE: KR), and Safeway (NYSE: SWY) over the next few months. The company's first television advertising campaign will accompany the launch. To differentiate its soda, Jones is going with pure cane sugar as a sweetener over the industry's high-fructose corn syrup.

The impact will be dramatic. Case volume doubled to 5.1 million last year, but Naitonal Beverage is committed to boosting that annual distribution to 35 million cases.

The company isn't abandoning its premium bottled soft drinks. They sell well and are quality brand ambassadors in retail outlets like Panera Bread (Nasdaq: PNRA) and that gourmet coffee chain that always seems to be a block or two away. It is also moving into new lines like its 24C ready-to-drink vitamin water. 24C will be the company's first non-carbonated beverage and sold in plastic bottles.

Glass? Plastic? Aluminum cans?

Things will get interesting as Jones Soda moves from being merely a star in the $500 million premium beverage market to trying its hand at landing a bit part in the $66 billion mainstream soft drink market.

Yes, they do grow up so fast -- but growth stock investors wouldn't have it any other way.

Want to keep up with the Joneses?

I first singled out Jones Soda two years ago when it was trading for $4 a share
I tagged it as a "pop star" a few months later

It's going crazy $18.79 today.

Bought some aftermarket on Thursday at $14.20 when the earnings news came out. I took my profit at $17.70 earlier this morning.

Kind of stinks for me that it went up another $1.00 after that, but nearly $1700 in two trading days is okay by me.

I wonder if it is a good time to short it now.

The downtrend took it all the way to the 19's, but last night, Cramer pumped it up again. It went up over 6% in AH trading.

Investors Jones For Soda
Matthew Kirdahy, 04.02.07, 6:57 PM ET
http://www.forbes.com/2007/04/02/jones-soda-stock-markets-equity-cx_mk_0402marke ts28.html?partner=yahootix

One of the smallest companies in the bottled beverage business was one of the biggest winners on Wall Street Monday.

The micro-cap stock Jones Soda (nasdaq: JSDA - news - people ) jumped 10.5%, or $2.13, to $22.35, nearing its 52-week high of $22.86, in Monday trading.

Jones Soda announced on Monday a new 12 ounce bottled soda sweetened with pure cane sugar. The company reaffirmed its goal to convert the sweetener in all of its products to pure cane sugar from high fructose corn syrup.

The company also announced on Monday the appointment of Peter Burns, who comes from the Izze Beverage, as the new senior executive vice president of sales and marketing.

Jones Soda, whose exclusive two-year canned soda contract with Target (nyse: TGT - news - people ) expired on Dec. 31, has a five-year deal with National Beverage to manufacture and distribute the company's canned soda to national retailers.

Jones Soda has said its primary focus has been to increase the outlet availability, or exposure in the marketpalce, of its newest canned product.

Last week, shares of the company got a lift from comments made by TV show host Jim Cramer.

Cramer touted the stock, urging investors buy below $20.

Shares of the Seattle, Wash.-based company have been performing incredibly well this year, soaring 67.5% in 2007. (See: "Sweeter Sales Seen For Jones Soda." )

In early March, a strong fourth-quarter earnings report and news that the company would sell its canned product in certain Wal-Mart (nyse: WMT - news - people ) stores gave the stock its initial boost toward current levels.

Jones Soda recently began using pure cane sugar in all its sodas, instead of high-fructose corn syrup, as used in Pepsi (nyse: PEP - news - people ) and Coca Cola (nyse: KO - news - people ) products. To pay for the switchover, the company had said the company had to raise its prices.

The company said its outlet availability of its brand would be 25% by Memorial Day and 30% by the end of the year, nearing 50% in 2008. Pepsi and Coca-Cola have an outlet availability greater than 90%.

Zoltan, PLEASE tell me that you are still in JSDA and didn't sell at $17.70 like I did? I'd love for someone on allstocks to be benefitting.

I can't believe this has gone to $24.00 on Cramer's pump!

UNREAL!

Piper Jaffray increases target to $31 (Not rated)


http://notablecalls.********.com/

- Piper Jaffray is increasing their tgt on Jones Soda (NASDAQ:JSDA) to $31 from $18 saying margin expansion is driving the model as the company potentially achieves 30% ACV in FY07 and 50% in FY08 of its premium private label brand. Firm believes that the initial pipeline fill is shipping and being shelved (targeted goal of Memorial Day) as expected.

The potential 2H07 "risk" remains as a sell-through period versus the 1H07 channel fill, which may be offset by marketing initiatives. The company continues to invest in human capital, most recently hiring Mr. Peter Burns as SVP of Sales/Marketing.

Piper expects Jones Soda to also invest in its brand through product line launches or extensions, over time.

They are maintaining their FY07 EPS estimate of $0.21. They are also increasing their FY08 EPS estimate by $0.10 to $0.45 based on total revenue growth of 40.8% to $69.4 million versus $63.0 million prior (and conservatively flat gross margin). Reiterates Outperform.

Notablecalls: Oh boy, this is going to be interesting. The valuation is sky high but note there is around a 5 million share short position in the name (20% short interest). The shorts have been squeezed hard over the past couple of weeks and I suspect they will fight hard to counter the positive comments from Piper. If I were among the shorts in this name, I would surely do my best to chop this one down today, possibly toward negative territory.

Overpriced Jones Soda Drops

We last commented on Jones Soda Co. (NASDAQ: JSDA) on April 4. The stock traded for $25.42 per share at the time and we believed the stock was ridiculously overbought on technical levels and has become outright expensive because investors were paying a high price tag for shares of Jones Soda based on the expectation of future earnings. In the short term we felt there would not be much more substantial upside because there now existed a "Hansen premium," in the stock, thanks to Jim Cramer, and because the company still needs to prove that it can deliver on its promised growth.

Today, Jones Soda shares are now trading lower by $1.45, or 5.72%, to $23.91 on heavy volume of 1.3 million shares. Earlier this morning, there was an article published by Forbes which echoed our earlier sentiment on the company, labeling Jones Soda as an overpriced stock with an estimated price to earnings ratio over the next twelve months of an unbelievable 116. Jones Soda was named as one of five stocks too rich for comfort according to Forbes' PEG ratio which is calculated by dividing a stock's estimated price-to-earnings ratio for the next 12 months by its projected long-term earnings growth rate. The rule of thumb says PEGs below 1.0 signal a cheap stock. The piece cited Jones Soda as one of the stocks that has a PEG at 2.0 or above, as well as price-to-sales ratios above 5.
