Current report

Current report

–Diluted EPS decreased in the third quarter of 2025, primarily driven by a decrease in Adjusted EPS, an unfavorable year-over-year change in acquisition-related items, settlement losses related to the buy-out of retiree participants' obligations for two Canadian pension plans, lapping prior-year divestiture-related items and lapping prior-year favorable initial impacts from enacted tax law changes. These unfavorable items were partially offset by a favorable year-over-year change in mark-to-market impacts from commodity and foreign currency derivatives, a gain on an equity method investment transaction, lower intangible asset impairment charges, a favorable impact from the resolution of an indirect tax matter and lapping prior-year costs for the completed Simplify to Grow Program.

Current report

Segment operating income increased $22 million (17.6%), primarily due to higher pricing, lower advertising and consumer promotion costs, a favorable impact from the resolution of an indirect tax matter, lower manufacturing costs driven by productivity and lower other selling, general and administrative expenses. These favorable items were partially offset by higher raw material costs, unfavorable volume/mix and higher costs incurred for the ERP System Implementation program.

Current report

Net revenues increased $166 million (9.0%), due to higher net pricing (9.3 pp) and the impact of an acquisition (4.7 pp), partially offset by unfavorable volume/mix (4.0 pp) and unfavorable currency translation rate changes (1.0 pp). Higher net pricing, driven by input cost-driven pricing actions, was reflected across all categories. The November 1, 2024 acquisition of Evirth added incremental net revenues of $87 million (constant currency basis) in the third quarter of 2025. Unfavorable volume/mix reflected pricing elasticity impacts, driven by declines in chocolate, gum, refreshment beverages and biscuits & baked snacks, partially offset by gains in cheese & grocery and candy. Unfavorable currency translation impacts were due to the strength of the U.S. dollar relative to several currencies in the region, primarily the Indian rupee, Australian dollar and Vietnam dong.

Current report

Segment operating income decreased $330 million (54.5%), primarily due to higher raw material costs, unfavorable volume/mix and higher other selling, general and administrative expenses.

–Diluted EPS decreased in the first six months of 2025, driven by an unfavorable year-over-year change in mark-to-market impacts from commodity and foreign currency derivatives, a decrease in Adjusted EPS, an unfavorable impact from a loss related to the settlement of a U.S. pension plan, costs incurred for the ERP System Implementation program and lapping prior-year divestiture-related items. These unfavorable items were partially offset by lapping a prior-year equity method investment impairment, a favorable year-over-year change in acquisition-related items, lapping prior-year costs for the completed Simplify to Grow Program and lapping prior-year unfavorable initial impacts from enacted tax law changes.

Previous wording

Net revenue increase of 7.7% was driven by our underlying Organic Net Revenue growth of 5.6%, the impact of an acquisition and favorable currency-related items. Organic Net Revenue growth was driven by higher net pricing, partially offset by unfavorable volume/mix. Higher net pricing was due to the benefit of carryover pricing from 2024 as well as the effects of input cost-driven pricing actions taken during the first six months of 2025. Higher net pricing was reflected in all regions except North America. Unfavorable volume/mix was experienced across all regions except AMEA, driven by pricing elasticity impacts in Europe and Latin America, as well as U.S. retailer inventory destocking and soft consumption in North America. The November 1, 2024 acquisition of Evirth added incremental net revenues of $102 million (constant currency basis) in the first quarter of 2025. Refer to Note 2, Acquisitions and Divestitures, for additional information. Currency-related items increased net revenues by $68 million, driven by favorable currency translation rate changes and the impact of extreme pricing in Argentina. Refer to Recent Developments and Significant Items Affecting Comparabilityfor additional information. Favorable currency translation rate changes were due to the strength of several currencies relative to the U.S. dollar, primarily the euro, British pound sterling, Russian ruble, Polish zloty and Swedish krona, partially offset by the strength of the U.S. dollar relative to several currencies, primarily the Mexican peso, Argentinean peso, Brazilian real, Turkish lira, Indian rupee and Australian dollar.

Previous wording

During the second quarter of 2025, we realized higher net pricing, which was more than offset by increased input costs and unfavorable volume/mix. Higher net pricing, which included the carryover impact of pricing actions taken in 2024 as well as the effects of input cost-driven pricing actions taken during the first six months of 2025, was reflected across all regions except North America. The increase in input costs was driven by higher raw material costs, partially offset by lower manufacturing costs driven by productivity. Higher raw material costs were primarily due to higher cocoa, packaging, dairy, edible oils, nuts and other ingredient costs, as well as unfavorable year-over-year currency exchange transaction costs on imported materials, partially offset by lower sugar, grains and energy costs. Overall, unfavorable volume/mix was experienced across all regions, primarily due to unfavorable product mix reflecting pricing elasticity impacts in Europe, Latin America and AMEA, as well as biscuit & baked snacks category softness in North America.

Income Taxes – Our effective tax rate was 26.9% for the second quarter of 2025 as compared to 34.7% in the second quarter of 2024.
