Management comments

 

Consistent execution of our strategy delivered an EBITDA increase of 6.5%, continued margin expansion and high-single digit Underlying EPS growth

Our 2Q25 and HY25 results demonstrate the resilience of our strategy and ability of our business to deliver reliable compounding growth. In 2Q25, increased investments in our brands, expansion of our premium portfolio and innovation in balanced choices, combined with our revenue management decisions drove an acceleration in revenue growth, top- and bottom line increases in four of our five operating regions and continued growth in our overall portfolio brand power.

Revenue increased in 70% of our markets and by 3.0% overall, driven by a revenue per hl increase of 4.9%. Volumes declined by 1.9%, impacted by soft industries and performance in China and Brazil. While overall volumes were below potential, underlying momentum continued in the remainder of our footprint, with volume growth of 0.7% outside of these two countries. Top-line growth combined with disciplined resource allocation and overhead management drove an EBITDA increase of 6.5%, margin expansion of 116bps and Underlying EPS growth of 17.4% in constant currency and 8.7% in USD to reach 0.98 USD.

Progressing our strategic priorities

We continue to execute on and invest in three key strategic pillars to deliver consistent growth and long-term value creation.

Lead and grow the category:

 

Our overall portfolio brand power grew in 2Q25 driven by increased marketing investment and effectiveness. In addition, we estimate that we gained or maintained market share in 60% of our markets in HY25.

 

Digitize and monetize our ecosystem:

 

BEES Marketplace captured 785 million USD in GMV from sales of third-party products, a 63% increase versus 2Q24. Overall BEES GMV increased by 10% versus 2Q24, reaching 12.2 billion USD.

 

Optimize our business:

 

We continued to make progress on deleveraging with net debt to EBITDA reaching 3.27x as of 30 June 2025 versus 3.42x as of 30 June 2024. In HY25, we invested 5.0 billion USD in capex and sales and marketing while delivering free cash flow of approximately 1.4 billion USD, a 0.5 billion USD increase versus HY24.

Lead and grow the category

Our performance across each of our category expansion levers drove an estimated increase in the percentage of legal drinking age consumers purchasing our portfolio across our key markets, with increases led by our megabrands and no-alcohol beer portfolio. We continue to invest in our megabrands and mega platforms with our sales and marketing investments increasing to $3.6 billion USD in HY25, a 4% increase versus HY24. According to the Kantar BrandZ 2025 report, our portfolio holds 8 of the top 10 most valuable beer brands in the world, with Corona and Budweiser #1 and #2 respectively. Our marketing effectiveness and creativity were recognized by being named the most effective marketer in the world by both Effies and the World Advertising Research Center for the 4th year in a row.

 

 

 

Core Superiority: Revenue of our mainstream portfolio increased by 0.4% in 2Q25, driven by high-single digit growth in Peru and mid-single digit growth in Colombia and Mexico.

Premiumization: Corona led our premium performance in 2Q25, increasing revenue by 7.7% outside of Mexico with double-digit volume growth in more than 30 markets. Our overall above core beer portfolio delivered a 5.1% revenue increase.

 

 

 

Balanced Choices: Growth in 2Q25 was led by our no-alcohol beer portfolio which delivered a 33% revenue increase and is estimated to have gained share of no-alcohol beer across our footprint, led by Corona Cero which nearly doubled volumes versus 2Q24. Our overall balanced choices portfolio of low carb, sugar free, gluten free and no- and low-alcohol beer brands delivered a revenue increase of 7.9%.

 

 

 

Beyond Beer: The momentum of our Beyond Beer portfolio continued in 2Q25, led by the double-digit revenue growth of Cutwater in the US and Beats in Brazil which drove an overall revenue increase of 6.4%.

 

LOGO

 

Digitize and monetize our ecosystem

 

 

Digitizing our relationships with more than 6 million customers globally: As of 30 June 2025, BEES was live in 28 markets with 71% of our revenues captured through B2B digital platforms. In 2Q25, BEES captured 12.2 billion USD in GMV, growth of 10% versus 2Q24.

 

 

 

Monetizing our route-to-market: BEES Marketplace GMV growth accelerated in 2Q25, growing by 63% versus 2Q24 to reach 785 million USD from sales of third-party products.

 

 

 

Leading the way in DTC solutions: Our omnichannel DTC ecosystem of digital and physical products generated revenue of approximately 335 million USD in 2Q25. Our DTC megabrands, Zé Delivery, TaDa Delivery and PerfectDraft, generated 18.2 million e-commerce orders and delivered 134 million USD in revenue this quarter, representing 6% growth versus 2Q24.

 

LOGO

 

Optimize our business

 

 

Maximizing value creation: EBITDA grew by 6.5% and EBIT by 10.2% in 2Q25 as disciplined resource allocation and overhead management drove continued margin expansion. The combination of the optimization of our net finance costs and net working capital, and improved capex efficiency delivered free cash flow of approximately 1.4 billion USD in HY25, a 0.5 billion USD improvement versus HY24. We continued to progress on our deleveraging with our net debt to EBITDA ratio reaching 3.27x versus 3.42x as of 30 June 2024. As is typical, the ratio increased versus FY24 due to the seasonality of our cash flow generation and cash outflow for our increased full year dividend and share buyback program.

 

 

 

Advancing our sustainability priorities: In Climate Action, our Scopes 1 and 2 emissions per hectoliter of production was 4.30 kgCO2e/hl in HY25, a reduction of 47% versus our 2017 baseline. In Water Stewardship, our water use efficiency ratio improved to 2.40 hl per hl in HY25 versus 2.50 hl per hl in HY24.

Delivering reliable compounding growth

In the first half of this year, our business delivered an EBITDA increase of 7.2% with margin expansion of 166bps and Underlying EPS growth of 8.0% in USD. We made strategic choices across revenue management, resource allocation, and increased sales and marketing investments to lead and grow the category. We continued to make progress on deleveraging while paying an increased dividend to our shareholders and completing our 2 billion USD share buyback program. Our footprint has structural tailwinds for long-term volume growth with favorable demographics, ongoing economic development and opportunities to increase category participation. Our consistent performance and the fundamental strengths of our business reinforce our confidence in our ability to deliver our FY25 outlook and long-term value creation.

Beer volumes declined by low-teens, impacted by a soft industry and cycling a strong performance in 2Q24. In our other markets in Africa, we grew volume in aggregate by low-single digits, driven by Tanzania and Mozambique.

 

 

 

South Korea: Revenue declined by high-single digits in 2Q25 with low-single digit revenue per hl growth driven by revenue management initiatives. While we continued to gain market share in both the on-premise and in-home channels, volumes were negatively impacted by shipment phasing ahead of our April price increase and declined by high-single digits.

Non-underlying net finance cost in 2Q25 includes mark-to-market losses on derivative instruments entered into in order to hedge our share-based payment programs and shares issued in relation to the combination with Grupo Modelo and SAB.

The number of shares covered by the hedging of our share-based payment program, the deferred share instrument and the restricted shares are shown below, together with the opening and closing share prices.

The HY25 effective tax rate was positively impacted by non-taxable gains from derivatives related to the hedging of share-based payment programs and of the shares issued in a transaction related to the combinations with Grupo Modelo and SAB, while the HY24 effective tax rate was negatively impacted by non-deductible losses from these derivatives. Furthermore, HY24 effective tax rate included 133 million USD of non-underlying tax expense.

The decrease in Normalized ETR in 2Q25 compared to 2Q24 and HY25 compared to HY24 is driven mainly by country mix.

Normalized EBITDA, Normalized EBIT and Underlying Profit are non-IFRS financial measures used by AB InBev to reflect the company’s underlying performance. Underlying EPS and constant currency Underlying EPS are non-IFRS financial measures that AB InBev believes are useful to investors because they facilitate comparisons of EPS from period to period.

Normalized EBITDA is calculated by adjusting profit attributable to equity holders of AB InBev to exclude: (i) non-controlling interest; (ii) income tax expense; (iii) share of results of associates; (iv) non-underlying share of results of associates; (v) net finance income or cost; (vi) non-underlying net finance income or cost; (vii) non-underlying items above EBIT; and (viii) depreciation, amortization and impairment.

Underlying Profit is calculated by adjusting profit attributable to equity holders of AB InBev to exclude: (i) non-underlying items and (ii) hyperinflation impacts. Underlying EPS is calculated as Underlying Profit divided by the weighted average number of ordinary and restricted shares. Constant currency Underlying EPS is calculated as Underlying EPS excluding the effects of foreign currency translation by translating current period figures using the exchange rates from the same period in the prior year.

Normalized EBITDA, Normalized EBIT and Underlying Profit are not accounting measures under IFRS and should not be considered as an alternative to profit attributable to equity holders as a measure of operational performance, or an alternative to cash flow as a measure of liquidity. Underlying EPS and constant currency Underlying EPS are not accounting measures under IFRS and should not be considered as alternatives to earnings per share as a measure of operating performance on a per share basis. These non-IFRS financial measures do not have a standard calculation method and AB InBev’s definition of Normalized EBITDA, Normalized EBIT, Underlying Profit, Underlying EPS and constant currency Underlying EPS may not be comparable to that of other companies.

Our free cash flow (defined as cash flow from operating activities less net capex) increased by 470 million USD to reach 1 355 million USD in HY25. Our cash and cash equivalents decreased by 4 438 million USD in HY25, compared to a decrease of 2 476 million USD in HY24, with the following movements:

 

 

 

Our cash flow from operating activities reached 2 704 million USD in HY25 compared to 2 568 million USD in HY24. The increase was driven by changes in working capital for HY25 compared to HY24. Changes in working capital in the first half of 2025 and 2024 reflect higher working capital levels at the end of June than at year-end as a result of seasonality.

 

 

 

Our cash outflow from investing activities was 1 306 million USD in HY25 compared to a cash outflow of 1 732 million USD in HY24. The decrease in the cash outflow was mainly due to lower net capital expenditures in HY25 compared to HY24. Out of the total HY25 capital expenditures, approximately 34% was used to improve the company’s production facilities while 51% was used for logistics and commercial investments and 15% was used for the purchase of hardware and software and improving administrative capabilities.

 

 

 

Our cash outflow from financing activities amounted to 5 837 million USD in HY25, as compared to a cash outflow of 3 313 million USD in HY24. The increase in the cash outflow versus HY24 was primarily driven by the completion of our 2 billion USD share buyback program, higher dividends paid and lower debt issuance in 2025 compared to 2024.

Our net debt increased to 68.1 billion USD as of 30 June 2025 from 60.6 billion USD as of 31 December 2024. Our net debt to normalized EBITDA ratio was 3.27x as of 30 June 2025. Our optimal capital structure is a net debt to normalized EBITDA ratio of around 2x.

We continue to proactively manage our debt portfolio. After bond repurchases of 3 billion USD and issuances of 3 billion Euro in HY25, 98% of our bond portfolio holds a fixed-interest rate, 50% is denominated in currencies other than USD and maturities are well-distributed across the next several years.

As of 30 June 2025, we had total liquidity of 17.5 billion USD, which consisted of 10.1 billion USD available under committed long-term credit facilities and 7.4 billion USD of cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments in debt securities less bank overdrafts.

Notes

 

 

To facilitate the understanding of AB InBev’s underlying performance, the analyses of growth, including all comments in this press release, unless otherwise indicated, are based on organic growth and normalized numbers. In other words, financials are analyzed eliminating the impact of changes in currencies on translation of foreign operations, and scope changes. Since 1Q24, the definition of organic revenue growth has been amended to cap the price growth in Argentina to a maximum of 2% per month (26.8% year-over-year). Corresponding adjustments are made to all income statement related items in the organic growth calculations through scope changes. Scope changes also represent the impact of acquisitions and divestitures, the start or termination of activities or the transfer of activities between segments, curtailment gains and losses and year over year changes in accounting estimates and other assumptions that management does not consider as part of the underlying performance of the business. The organic growth of our global brands, Budweiser, Stella Artois, and Corona excludes exports to Australia for which a perpetual license was granted to a third party upon disposal of the Australia operations in 2020. All references per hectoliter (per hl) exclude US non-beverage activities. Whenever presented in this document, all performance measures (EBITDA, EBIT, profit, tax rate, EPS) are presented on a “normalized” basis, which means they are presented before non-underlying items. Non-underlying items are either income or expenses which do not occur regularly as part of the normal activities of the Company. They are presented separately because they are important for the understanding of the underlying sustainable performance of the Company due to their size or nature. Normalized measures are additional measures used by management and should not replace the measures determined in accordance with IFRS as an indicator of the Company’s performance. We are reporting the results from Argentina applying hyperinflation accounting since 3Q18. The IFRS rules (IAS 29) require us to restate the year-to-date results for the change in the general purchasing power of the local currency, using official indices before converting the local amounts at the closing rate of the period. In 2Q25, we reported a negative impact from hyperinflation accounting on the profit attributable to equity holders of AB InBev of (14) million USD. The impact in 2Q25 Basic EPS was (0.01) USD. Values in the figures and annexes may not add up, due to rounding. 2Q25 and HY25 EPS is based upon a weighted average of 1 989 million shares compared to a weighted average of 2 005 million shares for 2Q24 and HY24.
