Exhibit 99.1

Utz Brands, Inc. and Intersnack Group GmbH & Co. KG Announce Agreement to Take Utz

Private and Partnership with Founding Family

Intersnack Group to Acquire All Utz Class A Common Stock for $14.25 Per Share in Cash;

A Premium of Approximately 91% to the July 20, 2026 Closing Price, Providing Compelling, Immediate and Certain Value

The Rice and Lissette Family Entities to Continue Significant Ownership Stake in Utz;

Utz to be Owned 50% by the Rice and Lissette Family and 50% by Intersnack Group Following Transaction Close

Transaction Expands Intersnack Group’s Exposure to Attractive U.S. Snack Market

and Provides Utz with Access to Intersnack’s Expansive Resources and Innovation to Drive Further Growth

Utz to Maintain Ongoing Commitment to Hanover Community

Hanover, PA and Düsseldorf, Germany – July 21, 2026 – Utz Brands, Inc. (NYSE: UTZ) (“Utz” or the

“Company”), a leading U.S. manufacturer of branded salty snacks, and Intersnack Group GmbH & Co. KG (“Intersnack Group” or “Intersnack”), a leading, multinational savory snack manufacturer, today

announced that the companies have entered into a definitive agreement pursuant to which Intersnack Group will acquire all outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock of the Company for $14.25 per share in cash. The price represents a premium of

approximately 91% over the July 20, 2026 closing price and an enterprise value of approximately $2.9 billion. Upon closing the transaction, Utz will become a private company with the Rice and Lissette Family Entities (the “Rice and

Lissette Family”) and Intersnack Group each owning 50% of Utz.

Intersnack Group is a family-founded, privately-owned, multinational snack company.

Starting as a German potato chip producer in 1968, Intersnack Group has grown to become a leading snack manufacturer in Europe and Oceania. Intersnack Group has built an extensive product portfolio across a multitude of snack categories, both

organically and through acquisitions and key partnerships, by combining the benefits of international experience and local expertise.

“I have spent

significant time with the Intersnack team and have been impressed by Intersnack’s deep understanding of the snacking landscape, experience growing distinctive and long-standing brands, and strength in innovation,” said Howard Friedman,

Chief Executive Officer of Utz. “Intersnack shares our vision for Utz, and their marketing, manufacturing, and technology capabilities will be invaluable as we continue to invest in our brands and accelerate our strategy.”

“For more than 100 years, Utz has made snacks that are enjoyed by consumers across the U.S.,” said Dylan Lissette, Chairperson of the Utz Board of

Directors. “We are excited to partner with the accomplished Intersnack team. We believe that Intersnack is a like-minded partner with similar family heritage and a deep appreciation of the power of beloved brands. They understand the

importance of investing for the long term and the value of staying close to consumers and communities. We look forward to benefitting from Intersnack’s experience and broad resources as we drive our next century of success for the benefit of

our customers, our associates, our suppliers and the communities we serve.”

“Our partnership with the Rice and Lissette Family, and

commitment to Utz, represents a compelling opportunity for Intersnack to expand our exposure into the large and attractive U.S. snacking market, where we do not currently have a presence,” said Johan van Winkel, Executive Chairman of

Intersnack Group. “We have long admired Utz’s brands, its heritage and the strength of its team. Together with the Rice and Lissette Family and Utz’s management and associates, we see a tremendous opportunity to partner and build

on Utz’s strong foundation and help shape the future of snacking in North America. The combination of Intersnack’s and Utz’s extensive experience makes us confident that this partnership will deliver meaningful benefits to all of

our stakeholders.”

A special committee of Utz independent and disinterested directors (the “Special Committee”) was

formed in response to interest expressed by Intersnack Group to acquire a significant portion of the Company through a going private transaction. The Special Committee and its independent financial and legal advisors evaluated the transaction and

other potential alternatives that Utz could explore and determined that the transaction was the best alternative to deliver compelling, immediate and certain value to Class A common stockholders. Upon the unanimous recommendation of the Special

Committee, which led the review and negotiation of the transaction, Utz’s Board of Directors approved the transaction unanimously of all voting.

“This transaction is a great outcome for Class A common stockholders,” said Craig D. Steeneck, Chair of the Special Committee.

“Following Intersnack’s approach, the Special Committee thoroughly reviewed the proposal with the assistance of its advisors and determined that this premium, all-cash transaction provides

immediate and compelling value for Class A common stockholders.”

Transaction Details

The transaction will be financed by a combination of approximately $920 million cash from Intersnack Group, borrowings under a new $1.1 billion term

loan facility, borrowings under a new $250 million ABL facility, rollover equity by the Rice and Lissette Family and a reinvestment by the Rice and Lissette Family of a portion of the proceeds from the $44 million settlement of the

Company’s tax receivable agreement in connection with the transaction.

The transaction is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2026, subject

to the satisfaction of regulatory and other conditions, including approval by the holders of a majority of the Company’s outstanding common stock and the holders of a majority of the votes cast by disinterested stockholders of the Company.

The Rice and Lissette Family, Dylan Lissette and certain of their affiliates have entered into an agreement pursuant to which they have committed to vote

shares representing approximately 42% of Utz’s common stock in favor of the transaction.

Following the closing of the transaction, the Rice and

Lissette Family and Intersnack Group will each own 50% of Utz, Dylan Lissette will assume the role of Executive Chair of Utz and Utz common stock will no longer be listed on the NYSE.

Second Quarter 2026 Earnings Conference Call Update

Utz

plans to release its financial results for the second quarter of 2026 on August 5, 2026. Given the announced transaction, the Company will not host an earnings conference call or issue an earnings presentation or prepared remarks.
