Ian Craig, Coca-Cola FEMSA’s CEO, commented:

 

“We are pleased to report another set of positive results. During the quarter, our volume grew across all territories, and surpassed a billion unit cases for the first time during a quarter. Notably, our efforts to optimize costs and generate efficiencies, resulted in sequential margin improvements. On the digital front, the rollout of Juntos+, our B2B omnichannel platform, enabled us to reach more than US$ 1 billion in digital sales during the first six months of year. All this, as we continue bolstering our customer centricity to deepen our connection with our customers and improve their overall experience. As we enter the second half of the year, we are confident in our ability to maintain our growth momentum.

 

Finally, I want to congratulate our team at Coca-Cola FEMSA Argentina, which was recognized by The Coca-Cola Company with the Candler Cup 2022 due to its excellence in execution, talent, and culture. Working together as one single team with our colleagues from The Coca-Cola Company, our team in Argentina have made this recognition possible.”

CONSOLIDATED SECOND QUARTER RESULTS

CONSOLIDATED SECOND QUARTER RESULTS 
             
    As Reported   Comparable (1)
Expressed in millions of Mexican pesos   2Q 2023 2Q 2022 Δ%   Δ%
Total revenues   61,428 57,311 7.2%   16.9%
Gross profit   27,267 25,271 7.9%   16.9%
Operating income   8,562 7,652 11.9%   18.7%
EBITDA (2)   11,439 10,607 7.8%   16.0%

 

Volume increased 7.0% to 1,018.9 million unit cases, driven by volume growth in all of our territories, including strong performances in Mexico, Brazil, Guatemala, and Uruguay. Excluding the acquisition of the Cristal bulk water business in Mexico, total volume would have increased 5.2%.

 

Total revenues increased 7.2% to Ps. 61,428 million. Volume growth, revenue management initiatives, and favorable mix effects drove this increase. These factors were partially offset by an unfavorable currency translation into Mexican Pesos. On a comparable basis, excluding currency translations, total revenues increased 16.9%.

 

Gross profit increased 7.9% to Ps. 27,267 million, and gross margin increased 30 basis points to 44.4%. This gross profit increase was driven mainly by our top-line growth and favorable raw material hedging initiatives, partially offset by higher sweetener costs across our territories. On a comparable basis, gross profit increased 16.9%

 

Operating income increased 11.9% to Ps. 8,562 million, and operating margin increased 50 basis points to 13.9%. This expansion was driven mainly by a solid top-line performance and an operating foreign exchange gain in Mexico as a result of the appreciation of the Mexican Peso. These effects were partially offset by an increase in raw material costs, mainly sweeteners, coupled with an increase in operating expenses such as labor, marketing, and maintenance. On a comparable basis, operating income increased 18.7%.

Comprehensive financing result recorded an expense of Ps. 1,377 million, compared to an expense of Ps. 574 million in the previous year. This increase was driven mainly by a foreign exchange loss of Ps. 437 million as compared to a gain of Ps. 80 million, as our net cash exposure in U.S. dollars was negatively impacted by the appreciation of the Mexican Peso and the Brazilian Real.

Additionally, we recorded a loss of Ps. 68 million in financial instruments as compared to a gain of Ps. 355 million due to a one-off market value gain recognized during the same period of 2022. In accordance with IFRS 9, as of the second quarter 2022, we are recognizing the hedging gain or loss on the debt instrument that is being hedged using interest rate derivatives.

These effects were partially offset by a decrease in our interest expense, net, mainly as a result of a higher gain in our interest income that was driven by an increase in interest rates.

Finally, we recognized a lower gain in monetary position in inflationary subsidiaries during the second quarter of 2023 as compared to the same period of the previous year.

 

Income tax as a percentage of income before taxes was 27.2% as compared to 35.5% during the same period of 2022. This decrease was driven mainly by favorable inflationary effects in Mexico and deferred taxes.

 

Net income attributable to equity holders of the company was Ps. 4,926 million as compared to Ps. 4,627 million during the same period of the previous year. This increase was driven mainly by operating income growth, partially offset by an increase in our comprehensive financing result. Earnings per share1 were Ps. 0.29 (Earnings per unit were Ps. 2.34 and per ADS were Ps. 23.45.).

Comprehensive financing result recorded an expense of Ps. 2,774 million, compared to an expense of Ps. 2,765 million in the previous year. This is explained mainly by a higher foreign exchange loss of Ps. 1,066 million as compared to a loss of Ps. 85 million during the first six months of the previous year, as our net cash exposure in U.S. dollars was negatively impacted by the appreciation of the Mexican Peso and the Brazilian Real. In addition, we recorded a lower gain in monetary position in inflationary subsidiaries of Ps. 120 million as compared to a gain of Ps. 292 million during the same period of the previous year.

These effects were partially offset by a decrease in our interest expense, net, mainly as a result of a gain in our interest income of Ps. 1,866 million as compared to a gain of Ps. 948 million that was driven by an increase in interest rates.

Finally, we recorded a lower loss in financial instruments of Ps. 15 million as compared to a loss of Ps. 581 million during the same period of the previous year. This was driven mainly by a market value loss recorded during the first quarter of 2022, partially offset by a market value gain recognized during the second quarter of 2022. In accordance with IFRS 9, as of the second quarter of 2022, we are recognizing the hedging gain or loss on the debt instrument that is being hedged using interest rate derivatives.

 

Income tax as a percentage of income before taxes was 29.6% as compared to 33.2% during the same period of 2022. This decrease was driven mainly by favorable inflationary effects in Mexico and deferred taxes.

 

 

Net income attributable to equity holders of the company increased 17.3% to reach Ps. 8,837 million during the first six months of 2023, as compared to Ps. 7,532 million during the same period of the previous year. This increase was driven mainly by operating income growth. Earnings per share1 were Ps. 0.53 (Earnings per unit were Ps. 4.21 and per ADS were Ps. 42.07.).

EBITDA (2)    8,229  7,533 9.2%   10.8%

 

 

Volume increased 8.9% driven by growth across all of our territories in the division, including solid performance from Mexico and Guatemala. These volumes include the integration of the Cristal bulk water business, excluding these volumes, volume increased 6.0% in the division and 4.5% in Mexico.

 

Total revenues increased 13.4% to Ps. 39,088 million, driven by volume growth and revenue management initiatives. These effects were partially offset by unfavorable currency translation effects from most of our operating currencies in Central America. On a comparable basis, excluding currency translation effects, total revenues increased 15.1%.

 

Gross profit increased 13.0% to Ps. 18,635 million, and gross margin contracted 10 basis points to 47.7%. This margin decrease was driven mainly by an increase in raw material costs such as sweeteners and concentrate in Mexico. These effects were partially offset by our top-line growth, favorable raw material hedging initiatives, and the appreciation of the Mexican Peso as applied to our U.S. dollar-denominated raw material costs. On a comparable basis, gross profit increased 14.6%.

 

Operating income increased 13.7% to Ps. 6,509 million, and operating margin expanded 10 basis points to 16.7%, driven mainly by our top-line growth and an operating foreign exchange gain in Mexico.

Volume increased 3.8% driven by growth across all of our territories in the division.

 

Total revenues decreased 2.2% to Ps. 22,341 million. This decline was driven mainly by unfavorable currency translation effects of all of our operating currencies in the division into Mexican Pesos.

On a comparable basis, total revenues increased 20.3%.

 

Gross profit decreased 1.6% to Ps. 8,632 million, and gross margin expanded 20 basis points to 38.6%.

Operating income increased 6.6% to Ps. 2,053 million in the second quarter of 2023, resulting in an operating margin expansion of 80 basis points to 9.2%.

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.”

 

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

 

Earnings per share are equal to “quarterly 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 a KOFUBL 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 KOFUBL Units.

 

COMPARABILITY

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, in this case the acquisition of CVI in Brazil, integrated as of February 2022; 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.
