Coca-Cola FEMSA Announces Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2021 Results

Mexico City, February 24, 2022, Coca-Cola FEMSA, S.A.B. de C.V. (BMV: KOF UBL, NYSE: KOF) (“Coca-Cola FEMSA,” “KOF” or the “Company”), the largest Coca-Cola franchise bottler in the world by sales volume, announces its results for the fourth quarter and the full year of 2021.

FOURTH QUARTER OPERATIONAL AND FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS

· Consolidated volumes increased 5.4%, driven mainly by volume growth in Mexico, Central America, Colombia, Argentina, and Uruguay, partially offset by a slight volume decline in Brazil. Total volumes increased 6.9% versus our 2019 baseline.

· Total revenues increased 8.5%, while comparable revenues increased 10.5%, driven by our pricing initiatives, volume growth, and favorable price-mix effects. This increase was partially offset by a decline in beer revenues related to the partial transition of the beer portfolio in Brazil. Total revenues increased 3.0% versus the same period of 2019.

· Operating income increased 7.6%, while comparable operating income increased 8.0%, driven mainly by an increase in our top-line and favorable hedging initiatives, coupled with the resumption of the recognition of tax credits in Brazil related to the Manaus Free Trade Zone. These effects were partially offset by unfavorable raw material prices and the depreciation of most of our operating currencies as applied to our U.S. dollar-denominated raw material costs. Operating income increased 22.1% as compared to the same period of 2019.

· Majority net income increased 82.8%, driven mainly by solid operating results, coupled with the one-time recognition of a favorable deferred tax credit in Brazil and a decrease in comprehensive financial result during the quarter.

FULL YEAR OPERATIONAL AND FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS

· Total volumes increased 5.3%, driven by a recovery in all of our countries as a result of solid execution, coupled with economic reopening and increased mobility across our markets. Total volumes increased 2.6% versus our 2019 baseline.

· Total revenues increased 6.1%, while comparable revenues increased 11.1%, driven by volume growth, our pricing initiatives, and favorable price-mix effects, partially offset by a decline in beer revenues related to the partial transition of the beer portfolio in Brazil. Total revenues remained flat versus 2019.

· Operating income increased 8.6%, while comparable operating income increased 11.8%. This increase was driven mainly by an increase in our gross profit and favorable hedging initiatives, coupled with the resumption of the recognition of tax credits in Brazil related to the Manaus Free Trade Zone. These effects were partially offset by an increase in raw material prices and the normalization of certain operating expenses. As compared to 2019, our operating income increased 7.8%.

^· Earnings per share¹ were Ps. 0.93 (Earnings per unit were Ps. 7.48, and per ADS were Ps. 74.77.).

John Santa Maria, Coca-Cola FEMSA’s CEO, commented:

“Our full-year 2021 results reflect our business’s resilience and our ability to deliver accelerated results. Driven by the unwavering commitment of our teams to execute the right strategies across our markets, our volumes increased in all of our territories, resulting in consolidated volume growth of 5.3% year on year and 2.6% versus 2019. Notably, our revenues and our operating income grew 6.1% and 8.6%, respectively, for an operating income margin expansion of 30 basis points—all in the face of a dynamic raw material and supply chain environment.

Moreover, we achieved significant strategic milestones during the year; we strengthened our partnership with The Coca-Cola Company, accelerated the rollout of our digital capabilities, and capitalized on value-enhancing acquisition opportunities. Looking ahead, we are confident that we have the right vision and strategy to continue transforming our company and delivering sustainable long-term value for many years to come.”

CONSOLIDATED FOURTH QUARTER RESULTS

CONSOLIDATED FOURTH QUARTER RESULTS
	As Reported			Comparable (1)
Expressed in millions of Mexican pesos	4Q 2021	4Q 2020	Δ%	Δ%
Total revenues	53,273	49,116	8.5%	10.5%
Gross profit	23,985	21,939	9.3%	11.0%
Operating income	7,778	7,229	7.6%	8.0%
Operating cash flow (2)	10,648	9,998	6.5%	7.5%

Volume increased 5.4% to 951.3 million unit cases, driven mainly by volume growth in Mexico, Central America, Colombia, Argentina and Uruguay. This increase was partially offset by a slight volume decline in Brazil. Consolidated volume increased 6.9% versus our 2019 baseline.

Total revenues increased 8.5% to Ps. 53,273 million. This increase was driven mainly by our pricing initiatives, coupled with favorable price-mix effects and volume growth. These effects were partially offset by unfavorable currency translation effects from some of our operating currencies into Mexican Pesos and a decline in beer revenues related to the partial transition of the beer portfolio in Brazil. On a comparable basis, total revenues would have increased 10.5%. Total revenues increased 3.0% versus the same period of 2019.

Gross profit increased 9.3% to Ps. 23,985 million, and gross margin expanded 30 basis points to 45.0%. This increase was driven mainly by our raw material hedging strategies, coupled with revenue management initiatives and the resumption of tax credits on concentrate purchased from the Manaus Free Trade Zone in Brazil. These effects were partially offset by the depreciation in the average exchange rate of most of our operating currencies as applied to our U.S. dollar-denominated raw material costs and higher concentrate costs in Mexico. On a comparable basis, gross profit would have increased 11.0%. Gross profit increased 4.6% versus the fourth quarter of 2019.

Operating income increased 7.6% to Ps. 7,778 million, and operating margin contracted 10 basis points to 14.6%. This operating income increase was driven mainly by favorable top-line performance, partially offset by the normalization of certain operating expenses such as labor, and maintenance related to the reopening and increased mobility across our operations. On a comparable basis, operating income would have increased 8.0%. Our operating income increased 22.1% versus our 2019 baseline.

Comprehensive financing result recorded an expense of Ps. 748 million, compared to an expense of Ps. 1,777 million in the same period of 2020.

This quarter, the Company had a reduction in interest expense, net, as compared to the same period of 2020, as we recognized an increase in our interest income related to an increase in interest rates in Brazil. This decrease was partially offset by an increase in interest expenses.

Moreover, we recorded a foreign exchange gain of Ps. 79 million as compared to a foreign exchange loss of Ps. 346 million recorded during the same period of 2020, as our cash exposure in U.S. dollars was positively impacted by the depreciation of the Mexican Peso and the Brazilian Real during the quarter.

In addition, the Company recorded a gain of Ps. 269 million in monetary position in inflationary subsidiaries as compared to a gain of Ps. 123 million during the same period of 2020. Finally, we recorded a gain in financial instruments of Ps. 131 million, driven mainly by a market value gain recognized during this quarter, as compared to a loss of Ps. 214 million recorded during the same period of 2020.

Income tax as a percentage of income before taxes was 14.1% as compared to 36.3% during the same period of the previous year. This decrease was driven mainly by the one-time effect of the recognition of a favorable deferred tax credit in Brazil and the unfavorable deferred tax adjustments in Mexico that impacted the same period of 2020.

Net income attributable to equity holders of the company reached Ps. 5,809 million as compared to Ps. 3,177 million during the same period of the previous year, driven mainly by a lower consolidated tax rate, coupled with a decrease in comprehensive financial results and solid operating results. Earnings per share¹ were Ps. 0.35 (Earnings per unit were Ps. 2.77, and earnings per ADS were Ps. 27.65.).

⁽¹⁾ Quarterly earnings / outstanding shares. Earnings per share (EPS) for all periods are adjusted to give effect to the stock split resulting in 16,806.7 million shares outstanding.

Operating income	27,402	25,243	8.6%	11.8%

Volume increased 5.3% to 3,457.9 million unit cases in the full year of 2021 as compared to the same period of 2020, driven by volume growth across all of our operations resulting from our solid execution, coupled with gradual recoveries and increases in mobility. Consolidated volume increased 2.6% as compared to our 2019 baseline.

Total revenues increased 6.1% to Ps. 194,804 million in the full year of 2021 as compared to the same period of 2020, driven by volume growth, our pricing initiatives, and favorable price-mix effects. This increase was partially offset by unfavorable currency translation effects resulting from the depreciation of all of our operating currencies into Mexican Pesos, and a decline in beer revenues related to the partial transition of the beer portfolio in Brazil. In addition, during the same period of 2020, we recorded non-recurring other operating revenues related to an entitlement to reclaim tax payments in Brazil. On a comparable basis, total revenues would have increased 11.1%. Total revenues increased 0.2% versus 2019.

Gross profit increased 7.0% to Ps. 88,598 million in the full year of 2021 as compared to the same period of 2020, and gross margin expanded 40 basis points to 45.5%. Favorable price-mix effects, our raw material hedging strategies, and the positive effect of the resumption of tax credits on concentrate purchased from the Manaus Free Trade Zone in Brazil were partially offset by: i) higher raw material prices; ii) higher concentrate costs in Mexico; iii) and the depreciation in the average exchange rate of most of our operating currencies as applied to our U.S. dollar-denominated raw material costs. On a comparable basis, gross profit would have increased 11.3%. Gross profit increased 1.2% versus 2019.

Operating income increased 8.6% to Ps. 27,402 million in the full year of 2021 as compared to the same period of 2020, and operating margin expanded 30 basis points to 14.1%. This increase was mainly driven by a solid gross profit performance partially offset by the normalization of certain operating expenses such as marketing, labor, and maintenance related to increases in mobility across our operations. On a comparable basis, operating income would have increased 11.8%. Our operating income increased 7.8% versus our 2019 baseline.

Comprehensive financing result recorded an expense of Ps. 4,219 million during the full year of 2021 compared to an expense of Ps. 6,678 million in the same period of 2020.

Interest expense, net, recorded a decrease during the year, driven mainly by a one-time interest expense related to our successful debt refinancing initiatives during the first quarter of 2020, coupled with the re-payment of short-term financings and the re-payment of a Mexican Peso-denominated bond. These short-term financings were a preventive measure to reinforce the Company’s cash position in the face of the uncertainties driven by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Moreover, we recorded a foreign exchange gain of Ps. 227 million as compared to a foreign exchange gain of Ps. 4 million recorded during the same period of 2020, as our cash exposure to U.S. dollars was positively impacted by the depreciation of the Mexican Peso and the Brazilian Real.  

In addition, we recognized a gain in monetary position in inflationary subsidiaries of Ps. 734 million as compared to a gain of Ps. 376 million recorded during the same period of 2020.

Finally, we recorded a gain in financial instruments of Ps. 80 million, driven mainly by a market value gain recognized during this year as compared to a loss of Ps. 212 million.

Income tax as a percentage of income before taxes was 28.9% as compared to 33.8% for the previous year. This decrease was driven by the one-time effect of a favorable deferred tax credit in Brazil recognized in 2021, and deferred tax adjustments in Mexico that were recognized during the fourth quarter of 2020.

Net income attributable to equity holders of the company reached Ps. 15,708 million in the full year of 2021 as compared to Ps. 10,307 million during the same period of the previous year. Earnings per share¹ were Ps. 0.93 (Earnings per unit were Ps. 7.48, and earnings per ADS were Ps. 74.77.).

Operating cash flow (2)	6,835	6,612	3.4%	3.3%

Volume increased 7.4% to 531.8 million unit cases, driven mainly by strong volume growth in Mexico, 14.1% volume growth in Guatemala, and 19.8% volume growth in Central America South, as a result of economic reopening and mobility increases across our territories. Volume increased 4.9% versus our 2019 baseline.

Total revenues increased 13.7% to Ps. 30,792 million, driven mainly by volume growth and favorable price-mix effects, coupled with pricing and revenue management initiatives.

Gross profit increased 9.1% to Ps. 14,918 million, and gross margin contracted 210 basis points to 48.4%. This margin decrease was driven mainly by an increase in raw material costs, higher concentrate costs in Mexico, and the depreciation in the average exchange rate of most of our operating currencies as applied to our U.S. dollar-denominated raw material costs. These effects were partially offset by our raw material hedging strategies and favorable price-mix effects. On a comparable basis, gross profit would have also increased 9.1%. Gross profit increased 14.3% versus our 2019 baseline.

Operating income increased 2.6% to Ps. 5,083 million in the fourth quarter of 2021, and operating margin contracted 180 basis points to 16.5% during the period.

Total revenues increased 2.0% to Ps. 22,481 million, driven by volume growth and pricing and revenue management initiatives, coupled with favorable price-mix effects.

DEFINITIONS

Volume is expressed in unit cases. Unit case refers to 192 ounces of finished beverage product (24 eight-ounce servings) and, when applied to soda fountains, refers to the volume of syrup, powders, and concentrate that is required to produce 192 ounces of finished beverage product.

Transactions refers to the number of single units (e.g., a can or a bottle) sold, regardless of their size or volume or whether they are sold individually or in multipacks, except for soda fountains, which represent multiple transactions based on a standard 12 oz. serving.

Operating income is a non-GAAP financial measure computed as “gross profit – operating expenses – other operating expenses, net + operative equity method (gain) loss in associates.”

Operating cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure computed as “operating income + depreciation + amortization & other operating non-cash charges.”

Earnings per share are equal to “Earnings / outstanding shares.” Earnings per share (EPS) for all periods are adjusted to give effect to the stock split resulting in 16,806,658,096 shares outstanding. For the convenience of the reader, as each KOF UBL Unit is comprised of 8 shares (3 Series B shares and 5 Series L shares), earnings per unit are equal to EPS multiplied by 8. Each ADS represents 10 KOF UBL Units.

COMPARABILITY

In an effort to provide our readers with a more useful representation of our company's underlying financial and operating performance, as of the first quarter 2020, we adjusted our methodology to calculate our comparable figures, no longer excluding hyperinflationary operations. Due to this change, our “comparable” term means, with respect to a year-over-year comparison, the change of a given measure excluding the effects of: (i) mergers, acquisitions, and divestitures; and (ii) translation effects resulting from exchange rate movements. In preparing this measure, management has used its best judgment, estimates, and assumptions in order to maintain comparability.
