To Our Stockholders TO OUR STOCKHOLDERS I am pleased to report that 2020 represented our 28th consecutive record year of increased net sales. Despite the COVID-19 pandemic, net sales rose to $4.6 billion in 2020 from $4.2 billion in 2019. These unprecedented times continue to present unique and different challenges to all of us. Our deepest sympathies go out to all those who have been affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. Our top priority remains the health, safety and well–being of our employees, customers, consumers and our communities. We are continuing to monitor and reassess our business operations in accordance with guidance from public health authorities. Our production and distribution activities have remained in operation and our products are available for sale at retail establishments. We have contingency plans in place to address certain supply chain challenges that have arisen and could arise in the future, and are continuing to work with our suppliers, co- packers, bottlers and distributors to ensure our products are produced and remain available for sale to our consumers. Monster Energy Cares, our philanthropic arm, is actively engaged in a number of philanthropic efforts. We continue to innovate in the energy drink category. In 2020, we launched a number of new beverages in the United States, as well as in our international markets. Despite the COVID-19 pandemic during 2020, we have been able to accelerate our innovation pipeline and plan on launching new and exciting beverages during 2021. Our Monster Energy® drinks are now sold in approximately 141 countries and territories globally and our Strategic Brands, comprised primarily of the various energy drink brands we acquired from The Coca-Cola Company in 2015, are now sold in approximately 72 countries and territories globally. Our Reign Total Body Fuel® high performance energy drinks are sold in 15 countries and territories and our Affordable Energy Brands, comprised primarily of Predator®, are sold in 28 countries and territories globally.

Our affordable energy brands participate in the affordable segment of the energy drink category in certain international markets. I am saddened to advise that Sydney Selati, a director who had served on our Board since 2004, passed away in April 2021. We extend our deepest sympathies to his wife and family. I would like to express my gratitude for the support and leadership shown by Mr. Hilton Schlosberg, my Co- Chief Executive Officer, and would also like to express my gratitude for the direction and guidance provided by our executive leadership and our senior management team. We extend our personal thanks to our consumers, customers, bottlers and distribution partners as well as to our suppliers for their continued support. To our Board of Directors, executive leadership, management and employees, my sincere thanks and appreciation for all your efforts, which are evidenced by our continued success. To our stockholders, thank you for the trust you have placed in us and in our management team.

Kogemyakina, research supervisor Kriviy Rih Economic Institute of National Vadim Hetman Economic University of Kyiv COCA-COLA: A POWERFUL BRAND – AN EFFECTIVE MARKETING STRATEGY Branding is one of the most important aspects of any business, large or small, retail or business to business. It's important to spend time investing in researching, defining, and building your brand. An effective brand strategy gives you a major edge in increasingly competitive markets. To succeed in branding you must understand the needs and wants of your customers and prospects. You do this by integrating your brand strategies through your company at every point of public contact. Brand looks like the relationship between a product and its customer. A strong brand is invaluable as the battle for customers intensifies day by day. Brand is the source of a promise to your consumer. It's a foundational piece in your marketing communication and one you do not want to be without. For the last several years, when we ask people to think about a successful brand, we often ask them to think of Coca-Cola because, well, Coke is it. That’s why we decide to investigate the world’s powerful brand – coca - cola. The Coca-Cola Company is the world's largest beverage company, largest manufacturer, distributor and marketer of non-alcoholic beverage concentrates and syrups in the world, and one of the largest corporations in the United States.

  • Programa De Suplementos Deportivos Del Instituto Australiano Del Deporte
    PROGRAMA DE SUPLEMENTOS DEPORTIVOS DEL INSTITUTO AUSTRALIANO DEL DEPORTE CAFEÍNA Apreciación global del suplemento La Cafeína o (1,3,7-trimetilxantina), es una sustancia que se encuentra naturalmente en las hojas, frijoles y frutas de una variedad de plantas, y es consumida regularmente por aprox. 90% de los adultos. La fuente dietética más común de la cafeína es el café, pero las bebidas tipo cola, las bebidas energéticas y también los alimentos y suplementos especializados para deportistas contribuyen con la ingesta de la misma. Carecemos de información exacta sobre las ingestas de cafeína diarias típicas de los australianos; sin embargo, es probable que sea de alrededor de 250-300 mg (3-5 mg/kg de masa corporal). La ingesta de cafeína ha sido vinculada con varios problemas de salud; pero no está claro si la cafeína contribuye con un mayor o menor riesgo de sufrir diversas enfermedades. Las diferentes agencias de salud de los países del mundo consideran que la cafeína sería un compuesto generalmente seguro cuando se consume en niveles bajos o moderados. Estos niveles se definen como: • Bajo: 80-250 mg/d (1.1-3.5 mg/kg de masa corporal) • Moderado: 300-400 mg/d (4-6 mg/kg de masa corporal/día) El consumo de cafeína por los niños tiene un riesgo mayor y se sugiere que los niños menores de 12 años limiten la ingesta de cafeína a menos de 2,5 mg/kg/d. El 1 de enero de 2004, la cafeína fue eliminada de la lista de prohibiciones de 2014 de la Agencia Mundial Anti Doping (WADA), lo que permitió que los atletas que compiten en los deportes bajo la legislación de WADA puedan consumir cafeína dentro de sus dietas habituales o con propósitos específicos de rendimiento.

  • Sports Drinks: the Myths Busted August 5, 2012
    Sports drinks: the myths busted August 5, 2012 The Coca-Cola and McDonald's sponsorships for the London Olympics are creating outcry from health advocates, but there's one sponsorship they may be overlooking: Powerade. Powerade, the official drink for athletes at the 2012 Olympic Games (as well as the EUFA 2012), is the sister drink of the other official Olympic drink: Coca-Cola. Is it that surprising? The most common beliefs about sports drinks are that they rehydrate athletes, that all athletes (Olympic or not) can benefit from sports drinks, and that all sports drinks are created equal. Right? Wrong. Reaching for a neon-green Gatorade after your oh-so-grueling spin class may seem like a good idea, but the truth might surprise you. Sports drinks contain electrolytes (mostly potassium and sodium) and sugars to replenish what the body has lost through sweating that water alone can’t replace. The purpose of these beverages is to bring the levels of minerals in your blood closer to their normal levels, so you can continue your workout as if you just started. Sounds great, right? But don’t go reaching for the nearest bottle just yet. Not all sports drinks are created equal, and not every sports drink works the same for every athlete. Most nutritionists agree that sports drinks only become beneficial once your workout extends past 60 minutes. For Olympians, sports drinks might actually do the trick; one study from the University of Bath found that sipping on a carbohydrate-based drink helped athletes’ performances. But that doesn’t mean that drinking water ceases to be essential.
