CEO Marco Sparvieri noted that while the company faced continued market headwinds, its core business units maintained or expanded market share. The gross margin saw a 106 basis-point improvement, reaching 64.6%, as productivity gains effectively absorbed higher promotional spending and new tax burdens on sweetened beverages. Performance varied by region, with Latin American operations recording 3.9% growth, which partially offset the ongoing disruption within the US Hispanic market.
Consolidated net sales totaled 4,397 million Mexican pesos, reflecting a 6.0% decrease compared to the same period in 2025, a figure further impacted by the 10.8% appreciation of the Mexican peso. While operating income and EBITDA faced pressure due to operational deleverage, the company remains optimistic about a second-half recovery. This confidence is driven by a new innovation pipeline, including the rollout of Suerox Mineral, which has already shown positive sell-out trends in early July. Management will discuss these results and future outlook during a scheduled conference call on July 23.
