Sales Growth
Examining a company's long-term performance can provide clues about its quality. Any business can put up a good quarter or two, but many enduring ones grow for years.
With $154.3 million in revenue over the past 12 months, Zevia is a small consumer staples company, which sometimes brings disadvantages compared to larger competitors benefiting from economies of scale and negotiating leverage with retailers.
As you can see below, Zevia grew its sales at a sluggish 2% compounded annual growth rate over the last three years, but to its credit, consumers bought more of its products.
Zevia Quarterly Revenue
This quarter, Zevia's revenue fell by 2% year on year to $38.02 million but beat Wall Street's estimates by 1.7%.
Looking ahead, sell-side analysts expect revenue to grow 6% over the next 12 months, an acceleration versus the last three years. This projection is above the sector average and implies its newer products will fuel better top-line performance.

WWDC to focus on redesigns as Apple remains sidelined on AI, Bloomberg says
Apple's (AAPL) upcoming Worldwide Developers Conference will do little to assuage fears that the iPhone maker is a laggard in AI, Blomberg's Mark Gurman reports. Instead, the event will focus on design and productivity enhancements for its long-established operating system franchises. The company's keynote address will introduce redesigned software interfaces for the iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple TV and Apple Watch, in addition to more minor tweaks to the Vision Pro headset. As part of the end-to-end overhaul, the company is also making a sweeping change to its software branding, which will shift from version numbers to a year-based system. That means Apple will introduce iOS 26, iPadOS 26, tvOS 26, visionOS 26, macOS 26 and watchOS 26 – named for 2026. Internally, the operating systems are known as Luck, Charisma, Discovery, Cheer and Nepali, respectively, the author notes. The AI changes will be surprisingly minor are unlikely to impress industry watchers, especially considering the rapid pace of innovation by Alphabet's (GOOG) (GOOGL) Google, Meta Platforms (META), Microsoft (MSFT) and OpenAI, the publication adds.

Meta's tech chief says smart glasses will be the next smartphone — just don't expect it soon
Meta's CTO Andrew Bosworth said he doesn't think smart glasses will be able to replace smartphones in the near future. "That's ways off. Smartphones are incredible and it's not just they are great devices and they are convenient. We are used to them," he said during an interview at the Bloomberg Tech summit in San Francisco on Wednesday. Bosworth said that smartphones benefit from having an "incredibly entangled ecosystem of software connected to the rest of the world around us." This makes it slower and harder for people to switch over to smart glasses, he added. "So I think that will take a longer journey. The good news is they work really well in concerts," he said. Bosworth praised Apple's Vision Pro headset during his interview with Bloomberg, but said the company made a "rookie mistake" when they made the device too heavy to wear. "So from an engineering standpoint, it's wonderful and congratulations to that team. From a product standpoint, you can tell it's their first offering in the space," he said. "First generation products are hard. It's not until the second or third generation that you really figure out and hone the thing, and they made a lot of mistakes in that in terms of weight and where the weight was," he continued. Bosworth isn't the only Meta executive who thinks smartphones won't be displaced by smart glasses. The social media giant's CEO, Mark Zuckerberg said in a podcast with The Verge in September that he didn't think "people are getting rid of phones anytime soon." "It's not like we're going to throw away our phones, but I think what's going to happen is that, slowly, we're just going to start doing more things with our glasses and leaving our phones in our pockets more," Zuckerberg said. In January, Zuckerberg said during Meta's earnings that 2025 will be a "defining year" to see whether smart glasses will become "the next computing platform" or if it is "just going to be a longer grind." "Our Ray-Ban Meta AI glasses are a real hit, and this will be the year when we understand the trajectory for AI glasses as a category. Many breakout products in the history of consumer electronics have sold 5-10 million units in their third generation," Zuckerberg said. EssilorLuxottica, which produces the Ray-Ban Meta Smart Glasses, said in February that it has sold 2 million pairs of the glasses since 2023. EssilorLuxottica's CEO and chairman, Francesco Milleri said the company is targeting to produce 10 million smart glasses for Meta every year by the end of 2026.

Apple's latest AirPods Pro with USB-C just received a $70 discount
This year's WWDC kicks off in less than a week, which means Apple is likely to announce a string of software changes in short order, some of which are designed to improve Apple's latest pair of premium earbuds. Thankfully, if you haven't yet pulled the trigger on the second-gen AirPods Pro, they're once again on sale at Amazon, Walmart, and Best Buy for around $169 ($70 off), matching their best price of the year. If you're an iPhone user, you'd be hard-pressed to find a better pair of noise-canceling earbuds than Apple's latest AirPods Pro with USB-C. The second-gen model ratchets up the noise cancellation and sound quality, providing dynamic, rich sound and ANC that can go toe-to-toe with Sony's XM5 and other like-minded rivals. Unlike the cheaper AirPods 4 with ANC, they also feature convenient swipe-based controls and four sets of silicone tips, whereas Apple's entry-level earbuds still rely on an open-style design that allows more ambient noise in. As for why they're the perfect fit for iPhone users, well, that's easy. The Pro are chock-full of Apple-only features, including head tracking spatial audio, robust Find My support, and automatic device switching. The included speaker-equipped charging case also features a U1 chip for more accurate tracking, and thanks to a software update in the fall, Apple's high-end earbuds can now protect your hearing and serve as clinical-grade hearing aids. That makes them well-suited for those with mild to moderate hearing loss — or your next Turnstile concert. Other ways to save this weekend It's by no means a necessity, but I've been ogling the Vestaboard Note ever since the spendy split-flap display went up for sale last month. The nostalgic 24.5-inch board is currently available for preorder from Vestaboard ahead of its December launch starting at $899 ($400 off), and while it only features 45 split-flap mechanisms (as opposed to 132 on the original), it still looks like a delightful way to showcase any message, pattern, or image you create using the accompanying web interface or mobile app. Ugreen's FineTrack Smart Finder is available for just $9.99 (about $7 off) from Amazon and Ugreen right now, which is the best price we've seen on the inexpensive location tracker. Sure, it's not quite as capable as an AirTag, but it still comes with a two-year replaceable battery, a built-in ringer, and the ability to tap into Apple's extensive Find My network as necessary. Hell, it even comes with a lanyard hole, which isn't something we can say about Apple's tracker. Meta's entry-level VR headset, the Meta Quest 3S, is on sale once again at Amazon, Walmart, and Best Buy, where you can pick it up with a copy of Batman: Arkham Shadow and a three-month trial of Meta Horizon Plus for an all-time low of around $269 ($30 off). It's sort of the middle child in terms of Meta's headset lineup, as it features the same chipset as the Quest 3 but remains reliant on the same lenses and field of view as the Quest 2. Still, it can play most of the same standalone games as the former, as well as PC-based virtual reality titles if you own a gaming PC. Read our review.
