Molson Coors Beverage Company Reports 2025 Second Quarter Results

Article content GOLDEN, Colo. & MONTRÉAL — Molson Coors Beverage Company ('MCBC,' 'Molson Coors' or 'the Company') (NYSE: TAP, TAP.A; TSX: TPX.A, TPX.B) today reported results for the 2025 second quarter. Article content 2025 SECOND QUARTER FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS 1 Article content Article content Net sales decreased 1.6% reported and 2.6% in constant currency. U.S. GAAP income before income taxes decreased 0.9% to $554.9 million. Underlying (Non-GAAP) income before income taxes was $531.5 million, a decrease of 0.8% in constant currency. U.S. GAAP net income attributable to MCBC of $428.7 million, $2.13 per share on a diluted basis. Underlying (Non-GAAP) diluted EPS of $2.05 increased 6.8%. Updated or reaffirmed 2025 full year guidance for the following key financial metrics: Net sales: 3% to 4% decline on a constant currency basis, compared to low single-digit decline, previously Underlying (Non-GAAP) income (loss) before income taxes: 12% to 15% decline on a constant currency basis, compared to a low-single digit decline, previously Underlying (Non-GAAP) diluted earnings per share: 7% to 10% decline compared to a low single-digit growth, previously Underlying (Non-GAAP) net interest expense: $225 million, plus or minus 5%, compared to $215 million, plus or minus 5%, previously Underlying (Non-GAAP) free cash flow: $1.3 billion, plus or minus 10%, remains unchanged Article content 'We continue to view the incremental softness in the industry performance this year as cyclical, and we continue to believe in Molson Coors' ability to achieve its long-term growth objectives. That said, our second quarter financial results were impacted by the macroeconomic environment and its broad effects on the beer industry and consumer, our softer U.S. share performance, as well as the resulting impact of volume deleverage. Additionally, in the quarter we experienced expected headwinds primarily from the discontinuation of our contract brewing arrangements in the Americas at the end of 2024. This was all partially offset by strong price and mix growth across both business units, favorable timing of U.S. shipments and lower MG&A largely due to reduced incentive compensation and the timing of marketing spend. Article content As a result of the anticipated ongoing macroeconomic impacts on the industry, our lower-than-expected U.S. share performance, and higher-than-expected indirect tariff impacts on the pricing of aluminum, in particular the Midwest Premium pricing, we have adjusted our 2025 full year top and bottom-line guidance. However, we are reaffirming our annual underlying free cash flow guidance of $1.3 billion plus or minus 10% due to expected higher cash tax benefits and favorable working capital. Article content While navigating these macroeconomic pressures, we have continued to execute our Acceleration Plan and prudently invest behind our business and our brands to support long-term profitable growth. Collectively, we have held most of the share gains over the last three years for our core U.S. power brands – Coors Light, Miller Lite, and Coors Banquet. We remain committed to our premiumization plans: in EMEA&APAC behind the strength of Madri, in Canada with continued growth in Miller Lite and our flavor portfolio, and in the U.S. with Peroni and our partnership with Fever-Tree as well as continued focus against Blue Moon.' Article content Tracey Joubert, Chief Financial Officer Statement: Article content 'We are pleased with the strength of our balance sheet and cash generation, which is particularly important during a challenging macroeconomic environment. It has allowed us to continue to execute our strategic growth initiatives as well as return $500 million to shareholders for the first half of the year through a competitive dividend and accelerated pace of share repurchases. We are committed to protecting and growing our underlying free cash flow while making prudent capital allocation decisions that support the long-term health of our business and brands and returning even more cash to shareholders.'

Underlying (Non-GAAP) COGS per hectoliter: increased 4.9% in constant currency, primarily due to unfavorable mix driven by lower contract brewing volumes in the Americas segment and premiumization, volume deleverage as well as cost inflation related to materials and manufacturing expenses, partially offset by cost savings initiatives.

Net sales per hectoliter increased 11.8% reported and 6.0% on a constant currency basis. Article content U.S. GAAP income (loss) before income taxes: U.S. GAAP income before income taxes decreased 20.2% on a reported basis primarily due to lower financial volumes and higher U.K. waste management fees as a result of the change in the extended producer responsibility regulations, partially offset by lower MG&A expense driven by lower incentive compensation and cost savings, increased net pricing and favorable mix, as well as favorable foreign currency impacts of $5.4 million.

Article content CASH FLOW AND LIQUIDITY HIGHLIGHTS Article content U.S. GAAP cash from operations: Net cash provided by operating activities of $627.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, decreased $267.0 million compared to $894.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease in net cash provided by operating activities was primarily due to lower net income adjusted for non-cash items, the unfavorable movement of working capital and higher interest paid, partially offset by lower income taxes paid. The unfavorable movement of working capital was primarily driven by the $60.6 million payment as final resolution of the Keystone litigation case and the timing of payables and inventories, partially offset by lower payments for prior year annual incentive compensation and the timing of receivables. Underlying (Non-GAAP) free cash flow: Cash provided of $293.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, represents a decrease in cash provided of $211.5 million from the prior year, which was primarily due to a decline in operating cash flows, partially offset by cash impact of non-GAAP adjustment of $60.6 million payment as final resolution of the Keystone litigation case. Debt: Total debt as of June 30, 2025, was $6,319.3 million and cash and cash equivalents totaled $613.8 million, resulting in net debt of $5,705.5 million and a net debt to underlying EBITDA ratio of 2.41x. As of June 30, 2024, our net debt to underlying EBITDA ratio was 2.13x. Dividends: We paid cash dividends of $192.7 million and $188.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024, respectively. Share Repurchase Program: We paid $306.8 million and $375.3 million, including brokerage commissions, for share repurchases during the six months ended June 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024, respectively. Article content 2025 OUTLOOK Article content We have adjusted our 2025 guidance for certain key financial metrics due to the impacts of the global macroeconomic environment on the beer industry and consumer trends along with lower-than-expected U.S. share performance. While we have included in our guidance our best estimate of some of these factors, including the indirect tariff impacts on the pricing of aluminum, in particular the Midwest Premium, the impacts of these trends are difficult to predict and include inherent uncertainties that could impact our financial performance beyond what is contemplated in our guidance. Article content Net sales: 3% to 4% decline on a constant currency basis, compared to low single-digit decline, previously Underlying (Non-GAAP) income (loss) before income taxes: 12%-15% decline on a constant currency basis, compared to a low-single digit decline, previously Underlying (Non-GAAP) diluted earnings per share: 7%-10% decline compared to a low single-digit growth, previously Underlying (Non-GAAP) net interest expense: $225 million, plus or minus 5%, compared to $215 million, plus or minus 5%, previously Capital expenditures: $650 million incurred, plus or minus 5% remained unchanged from the first quarter of 2025 Underlying (Non-GAAP) free cash flow: $1.3 billion, plus or minus 10% Underlying (Non-GAAP) depreciation and amortization: $675 million, plus or minus 5% Underlying (Non-GAAP) effective tax rate: in the range of 22% to 24% Article content SUBSEQUENT EVENTS Article content On July 16, 2025, our Board declared a dividend of $0.47 per share, to be paid on September 19, 2025, to shareholders of Class A and Class B common stock of record on September 5, 2025.

On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act ('OBBBA') was enacted into law in the U.S. The OBBBA permanently extends certain expiring provisions from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, including accelerated tax recovery for certain capital investments and research and development expenditures and the business interest expense limitation. Additionally, the OBBBA includes changes to the taxation of foreign income for U.S.-domiciled businesses. While we are currently evaluating the impact of the OBBBA to the Company, we do anticipate a decrease in our current year cash tax liability as a result of the OBBBA.

Article content Worldwide brand volume (or 'brand volume' when discussed by segment) reflects owned or actively managed brands sold to unrelated external customers within our geographic markets (net of returns and allowances), royalty volume and our proportionate share of equity investment worldwide brand volume calculated consistently with MCBC owned volume. Financial volume represents owned or actively managed brands sold to unrelated external customers within our geographical markets, net of returns and allowances as well as contract brewing, wholesale non-owned brand volume and company-owned distribution volume. Contract brewing and wholesale/factored volume is included within financial volume, but is removed from worldwide brand volume, as this is non-owned volume for which we do not directly control performance. Factored volume in our EMEA&APAC segment represents the distribution of beer, wine, spirits and other products owned and produced by other companies to the on-premise channel such as bars and restaurants, which is a common arrangement in the U.K. Royalty volume consists of our brands produced and sold by third parties under various license and contract brewing agreements and, because this is owned volume, it is included in worldwide brand volume. Our worldwide brand volume definition also includes an adjustment from Sales-to-Wholesaler ('STW') volume to Sales-to-Retailer ('STR') volume. We believe the brand volume metric is important because, unlike financial volume and STWs, it provides the closest indication of the performance of our brands in relation to market and competitor sales trends. Article content We also utilize net sales per hectoliter and COGS per hectoliter, as well as the year over year changes in these metrics, as key metrics for analyzing our results. These metrics are calculated as net sales and COGS per our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations divided by financial volume for the respective period. We believe these metrics are important and useful for investors and management because it provides an indication of the trends of price and sales mix on our net sales and the trends of sales mix and other cost impacts on our COGS. Article content Use of Non-GAAP Measures Article content In addition to financial measures presented on the basis of accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. ('U.S. GAAP'), we also use non-GAAP financial measures, as listed and defined below, for operational and financial decision making and to assess Company and segment business performance. These non-GAAP measures should be viewed as supplements to (not substitutes for) our results of operations presented under U.S. GAAP. We have provided reconciliations of all historical non-GAAP measures to their nearest U.S. GAAP measure and have consistently applied the adjustments within our reconciliations in arriving at each non-GAAP measure. Article content Our management uses these metrics to assist in comparing performance from period to period on a consistent basis; as a measure for planning and forecasting overall expectations and for evaluating actual results against such expectations; in communications with the Board of Directors, stockholders, analysts and investors concerning our financial performance; as useful comparisons to the performance of our competitors; and as metrics of certain management incentive compensation calculations. We believe these measures are used by, and are useful to, investors and other users of our financial statements in evaluating our operating performance. Article content Underlying Income (Loss) before Income Taxes (Closest GAAP Metric: Income (Loss) Before Income Taxes) – Measure of the Company's or segment's income (loss) before income taxes excluding the impact of certain non-GAAP adjustment items from our U.S. GAAP financial statements. Non-GAAP adjustment items include goodwill and other intangible and tangible asset impairments, certain restructuring and integration related costs, unrealized mark-to-market gains and losses, adjustments to the redemption value of mandatorily redeemable noncontrolling interests, potential or incurred losses related to certain litigation accruals and settlements, impacts of settlement charges related to annuity purchases and gains and losses on sales of non-operating assets, among other items included in our U.S. GAAP results that warrant adjustment to arrive at non-GAAP results. We consider these items to be necessary adjustments for purposes of evaluating our ongoing business performance and are often considered non-recurring. Such adjustments are subjective, involve significant management judgment and can vary substantially from company to company. Underlying COGS (Closest GAAP Metric: COGS) – Measure of the Company's COGS adjusted to exclude non-GAAP adjustment items (as defined above). Non-GAAP adjustment items include, among other items, unrealized mark-to-market gains and losses on our commodity derivative instruments, which are economic hedges, and are recorded through COGS within Unallocated. As the exposure we are managing is realized, we reclassify the gain or loss to the segment in which the underlying exposure resides, allowing our segments to realize the economic effects of the derivatives without the resulting unrealized mark-to-market volatility. We also use underlying COGS per hectoliter, as well as the year over year change in such metric, as a key metric for analyzing our results. This metric is calculated as underlying COGS divided by financial volume for the respective period. Article content Underlying MG&A (Closest GAAP Metric: MG&A) – Measure of the Company's MG&A expense excluding the impact of certain non-GAAP adjustment items (as defined above). Underlying net interest income (expense), net (Closest GAAP Metric: Interest income (expense), net) – Measure of the Company's net interest expense adjusted to exclude adjustments to the redemption value of mandatorily redeemable noncontrolling interests. Underlying net income (loss) attributable to MCBC (Closest GAAP Metric: Net income (loss) attributable to MCBC) – Measure of net income (loss) attributable to MCBC excluding the impact of income (loss) before income tax non-GAAP adjustment items (as defined above), adjustments to the carrying value of redeemable noncontrolling interests resulting from subsequent changes in the redemption value of such interests, the related tax effects of non-GAAP adjustment items and certain other discrete tax items. Underlying net income (loss) attributable to MCBC per diluted share (also referred to as Underlying Diluted Earnings per Share) (Closest GAAP Metric: Net income (loss) attributable to MCBC per diluted share) – Measure of underlying net income (loss) attributable to MCBC (as defined above) per diluted share. If applicable, a reported net loss attributable to MCBC per diluted share is calculated using the basic share count due to dilutive shares being antidilutive. If underlying net income (loss) attributable to MCBC becomes income excluding the impact of our non-GAAP adjustment items, we include the incremental dilutive shares, using the treasury stock method, into the dilutive shares outstanding. Underlying effective tax rate (Closest GAAP Metric: Effective Tax Rate) – Measure of the Company's effective tax rate excluding the related tax impact of pre-tax non-GAAP adjustment items (as defined above) and certain other discrete tax items. Discrete tax items include certain significant tax audit and prior year reserve adjustments, impact of significant tax legislation and tax rate changes and significant non-recurring and period specific tax items. Underlying free cash flow (Closest GAAP Metric: Net Cash Provided by (Used in) Operating Activities) – Measure of the Company's operating cash flow calculated as Net Cash Provided by (Used In) Operating Activities less Additions to property, plant and equipment and excluding the pre-tax cash flow impact of certain non-GAAP adjustment items (as defined above). We consider underlying free cash flow an important measure of our ability to generate cash, grow our business and enhance shareholder value, driven by core operations and after adjusting for non-GAAP adjustment items, which can vary substantially from company to company depending upon accounting methods, book value of assets and capital structure. Underlying depreciation and amortization (Closest GAAP Metric: Depreciation & Amortization) – Measure of the Company's depreciation and amortization excluding the impact of non-GAAP adjustment items (as defined above). These adjustments primarily consist of accelerated depreciation or amortization taken related to the Company's strategic exit or restructuring activities. Net debt and net debt to underlying earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization ('underlying EBITDA') (Closest GAAP Metrics: Cash, Debt, & Net Income (Loss)) – Measure of the Company's leverage calculated as net debt (defined as current portion of long-term debt and short-term borrowings plus long-term debt less cash and cash equivalents) divided by the trailing twelve month underlying EBITDA. Underlying EBITDA is calculated as Net income (loss) excluding Interest expense (income), net, Income tax expense (benefit), depreciation and amortization and the impact of non-GAAP adjustment items (as defined above). Effective January 1, 2025, on a prospective basis, Underlying EBITDA excludes amortization of cloud-based software implementation costs. This measure is not the same as the Company's maximum leverage ratio as defined under its revolving credit facility, which allows for other adjustments in the calculation of net debt to EBITDA. Constant currency – Constant currency is a non-GAAP measure utilized to measure performance, excluding the impact of translational and certain transactional foreign currency movements, and is intended to be indicative of results in local currency. As we operate in various foreign countries where the local currency may strengthen or weaken significantly versus the U.S. dollar or other currencies used in operations, we utilize a constant currency measure as an additional metric to evaluate the underlying performance of each business without consideration of foreign currency movements. We present all percentage changes for net sales, underlying COGS, underlying MG&A and underlying income (loss) before income taxes in constant currency and calculate the impact of foreign exchange by translating our current period local currency results (that also include the impact of the comparable prior period currency hedging activities) at the average exchange rates during the respective period throughout the year used to translate the financial statements in the comparable prior year period. The result is the current period results in U.S. dollars, as if foreign exchange rates had not changed from the prior year period. Additionally, we exclude any transactional foreign currency impacts, reported within the other non-operating income (expense), net line item, from our current period results. Article content Our guidance or long-term targets for any of the measures noted above are also non-GAAP financial measures that exclude or otherwise have been adjusted for non-GAAP adjustment items from our U.S. GAAP financial statements. When we provide guidance for any of the various non-GAAP metrics described above, we do not provide reconciliations of the U.S. GAAP measures as we are unable to predict with a reasonable degree of certainty the actual impact of the non-GAAP adjustment items. By their very nature, non-GAAP adjustment items are difficult to anticipate with precision because they are generally associated with unexpected and unplanned events that impact our Company and its financial results.

Prime Minister Mark Carney scheduled to visit Kelowna, B.C., Tuesday

Prime Minister Mark Carney listens while touring the Royal Canadian Navy torpedo recovery vessel Sikanni at the Canadian Forces Maritime Experimental and Test Ranges (CFMETR), in Nanoose Bay, B.C., on Monday, August 4, 2025. THE CANADIAN PRESS/Darryl Dyck KELOWNA — Prime Minister Mark Carney is scheduled to be in Kelowna, B.C., for an announcement at a lumber facility on Tuesday after attending the Vancouver Pride parade on the weekend before he toured a Canadian Forces facility on Vancouver Island on Monday. Carney toured the Canadian Forces Maritime Experimental and Test Ranges facility near Nanoose Bay outside Nanaimo with officials from the Canadian Navy. He toured the Royal Canadian Navy vessel Sikanni accompanied by Navy Commander Vice-Admiral Angus Topshee and Commanding Officer Craig Piccolo from the testing facility. Carney on Sunday met with B.C. Premier David Eby and officials from the Vancouver Fraser Port Authority, but the meeting with the premier was closed to reporters. Carney also made a surprise appearance at the Pride parade in downtown Vancouver, where he was greeted with cheers from crowds that lined the parade route. The Prime Minister's visit to the province comes amid renewed tensions in the softwood lumber dispute with the U.S., which has placed anti-dumping duties on softwood lumber products that the B.C. Council of Forest Industries has condemned as 'unjustified and punitive trade actions.' This report by The Canadian Press was first published Aug. 5, 2025.
