Other income increased to $9.3 million, up from $4.9 million in the prior year, primarily due to interest income from money market accounts. Celsius Holdings faced legal challenges, including derivative actions and a lawsuit by Strong Arm Productions, resulting in an $82.6 million jury verdict against the company. Celsius is actively negotiating settlements for the derivative actions and appealing the lawsuit verdict, with accrued liabilities at the lower end of the potential outcome range between $2.1 million and $82.6 million plus interest. The company's business development included the introduction of a new CELSIUS® Essentials line and expansion into international markets through partnerships with Pepsi in Canada and Suntory in the UK, Ireland, France, Australia, and New Zealand. Future plans involve leveraging the incentive program with Pepsi to grow the U.S. product portfolio and continuing international market expansion.
