Table of Contents Annual Meeting Table of Contents Letter to Stockholders.... 1 Form 10-K.... 3 Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm.... 71 Consolidated Financial Statements.... 72 Corporate Directory.... 113 Annual Meeting The annual meeting of stockholders will be held at 2:00 pm on Thursday, June 7, 2018 at Monster Beverage Corporation, 1 Monster Way, Corona, CA 92879 TO OUR STOCKHOLDERS I am pleased to report that 2017 represented our 25th consecutive record year of increased gross sales. Net sales rose to $3.4 billion in 2017 from $3.0 billion in 2016. Gross sales rose to $3.9 billion in 2017 from $3.5 billion in 2016. We are continuing to innovate and anticipate introducing new and exciting beverages and packaging in the coming months. In 2017, we continued to transition a number of domestic and international geographies to the system bottlers of The Coca-Cola Company. Our Monster Energy® drinks are now sold in approximately 134 countries and territories around the world. Our Strategic Brands, comprised of various energy drink brands we acquired from The Coca-Cola Company in 2015, are now sold in approximately 92 countries and territories around the world. Given that in some countries we may only sell one of our brands, we believe we have the opportunity to introduce additional brands into certain of these geographies in the future. Our Monster Energy® brand participates in the premium energy category in numerous countries. However, we believe there is also an opportunity for us to participate in the affordable energy category in certain countries. We are currently developing brands such as Predator™ specifically for the affordable energy category in certain select countries. I would like to express my gratitude for the support and leadership shown by Mr. Hilton Schlosberg, our President, Chief Operating Officer and Chief Financial Officer, and would also like to express my gratitude for the direction and guidance provided by our senior management team. My personal thanks to our consumers, customers, bottlers and distribution partners as well as our suppliers for their continued support. To our management and employees, my sincere thanks and appreciation for all of your efforts, which are evidenced by our continued success. To our stockholders, thank you for the trust you have placed in our management team. We have an exciting road ahead of us and look forward to enhancing our future performance. Sincerely, Rodney C.

  • 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.

The Solution • Creative Strategy (Page 11) • Media Objectives and Strategies (Page 12) AMPlify Your Night! 3 I. Plan Summary AMP is an energy drink product that has been in desperate need of a re-branding. The current brand appeals mainly toward males. This is because of the masculine look of the product, as well as its current advertising being geared towards males who play sports. Its advertisements mainly list the product as being able to enhance ones skills and endurance on the playing field. Due to this way of advertising, other demographics are left out. Our plan would shift the focus to other demographics, specifically toward women. Our solution to this would be to re-brand the product to have two separate lines: one for women and one for men. The male product line will stay the same as the current line that is available now. However the women's product line will feature a sleek new look that is both feminine and attractive. The advertising for this brand new line will gear the product towards those who enjoy the nightlife.

Samu Kropivniku za pomoč in nasvete pri izdelavi te diplomske naloge. Hvala staršema, ki sta me že kot majhnega naučila, da je kdaj pa kdaj treba stisniti zobe. Hvala prijateljem za podporo, brez katere bi bilo poletje 2015 veliko težje. Hvala sodelavcem za podporo in razumevanje. Hvala Vida! Segmentacija pivcev energijskih pijač v Sloveniji glede na njihove življenjske stile Življenjski stili so eden izmed odsevov in tudi ”produktov” potrošniške družbe. Dolgo so bili pogojeni z družbenim statusom oziroma ekonomskim razredom, kateremu je nekdo pripadal, danes pa predstavljajo skupni imenovalec posameznikom in skupinam, ki dobrine, čas in prostor trošijo na podobne načine. Preko življenjskega stila posameznik pripoveduje svojo zgodbo sebi in svetu. Eden izmed pomembnih gradnikov življenjskega stila je simbolni kapital, katerega svojim izdelkom in tržnokomunikacijskim naporom v zajetni meri pripenja več milijard evrov vredna industrija energijskih pijač. V diplomski nalogi sem s pomočjo statistične analize primarnih podatkov uspešno podprl domnevo, da je slovenske pivce energijskih pijač na podlagi njihovih življenjskih stilov mogoče razdeliti v več med seboj različnih segmentov: tradicionalne borce, samozavestne srečneže in neobremenjene zmerneže. Ključne besede: življenjski stili, potrošništvo, energijske pijače, razvrščanje v skupine Lifestyle segmentation study of energy drink consumers in Slovenia Today lifestyles are considered as noticeable reflections and “products” of consumer societies.

This project is based on a major pan-Canadian partnership involving: • the Réseau du sport étudiant du Québec (RSEQ) • the Fédération du sport francophone de l’Alberta (FSFA) • the Social Research and Demonstration Corporation (SRDC) • the Université Laval • the Public Health Association of BC (PHABC) • the Ontario Public Health Association (OPHA) The general aim of the project is to reduce the consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages by changing attitudes toward their use and improving the food environment by making healthy choices easier. To do so, the project takes a three-pronged approach: • The preparation of this report, which offers an analysis of the Canadian sugar-sweetened beverage market and the associated marketing strategies aimed at young people (Weight Coalition/Université Laval); • The dissemination of tools, research, knowledge and campaigns on marketing sugar-sweetened beverages (PHABC/OPHA/Weight Coalition); • The adaptation in Francophone Alberta (FSFA/RSEQ) of the Quebec project Gobes-tu ça?, encouraging young people to develop a more critical view of advertising in this industry.
