José Antonio Fernandez Carbajal, FEMSA’s Chief Executive Officer, commented:

 

“Our first quarter results showed we are carrying the positive momentum from last year, into 2024. The majority of our operations, including the two that contribute most to our results, delivered excellent numbers across the board. Proximity achieved double-digit growth in top-line and operating income, driven by strong and balanced same-store sales growth, healthy new-store expansion, and good expense control. For its part, Coca-Cola FEMSA delivered a potent set of numbers across its own income statement, driven by strong volume and revenue growth in its major markets.

 

Digital@FEMSA continued to add users and advance towards its ecosystem objectives, and we also saw good progress at Valora and OXXO Gas. The one operation that is facing strong headwinds is Health, where we continue to navigate a tough competitive environment in Mexico, and a rapidly evolving institutional environment in Colombia. Our team is well advanced in adjusting the strategy to overcome those challenges, and we are confident the trends will improve and eventually converge with the positive dynamics we see elsewhere in our Company.

 

On the capital allocation front, during the quarter our shareholders approved several measures linked to our capital allocation framework, such as raising our ordinary dividend, approving a special dividend for this year, and doubling our buyback capacity. We made progress on the execution of this capital return strategy, and we began to move toward our stated leverage objective.

 

In short, we hit the ground running in 2024 and we are hard at work advancing on every element of our strategy, as we continue to pursue and capture the significant opportunities before us. I am grateful to the entire FEMSA team for their extraordinary dedication.”

Net debt   14,863     898  
ND / Adjusted EBITDA   0.24 x   -  

 

Total revenues increased 11.3% in 1Q24 compared to 1Q23, driven by growth across most of our business units.

 

Gross profit increased 10.9%. Gross margin decreased 20 basis points, mainly reflecting margin contractions in FEMSA’s Health and Fuel operations. This was partially offset by margin expansions in the Proximity Americas, Coca-Cola Femsa, and Proximity Europe divisions.

 

Income from operations increased 14.4%. The consolidated operating margin was 8.3% as a percentage of total sales, mainly explained by a margin expansion in the Proximity Europe division and stable margins of Coca-Cola FEMSA.

 

Our effective income tax rate was 36.0% in 1Q24 compared to 28.7% in 1Q23. Our income tax provision was Ps. 3,267 million in 1Q24.

 

Net consolidated income was Ps. 5,884 million, reflecting: i) a challenging comparative base from the first quarter of 2023, which included a gain of Ps. 40,606 million from the reclassification of FEMSA’s investment in Heineken to discontinued operations, ii) lower interest income of Ps. 2,845 million compared to Ps. 8,500 million in 1Q23 attributable to a gain from the purchase of debt in 1Q23 of US$1.7 billion, which was not repeated in 1Q24; and iii) a higher interest expense amounting to Ps. 4,716 million stemming from the acquisition of financial derivatives, partially compensated by a reduction in interest rates associated with debt prepayment. This was partially offset by a lower non-cash foreign exchange loss of Ps. 1,104 million resulting from a decrease in our cash position in dollars compared to the period ended in 2023.

 

Net majority income was Ps. 0.82 per FEMSA Unit1 and US$0.49 per FEMSA ADS2.

 

Capital expenditures amounted to Ps. 7,371 million, driven by ongoing investment initiatives across our business units aimed at improving our productivity, efficiency, and competitiveness.

 

 

1 FEMSA Units consist of FEMSA BD Units and FEMSA B Units. Each FEMSA BD Unit is comprised of one Series B Share, two Series D-B Shares and two Series D-L Shares. Each FEMSA B Unit is comprised of five Series B Shares. The number of FEMSA Units outstanding as of March 31, 2023 was 3,578,226,270, equivalent to the total number of FEMSA Shares outstanding as of the same date, divided by 5.

2 The exchange rate published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York for March 31, 2024 was 16.5574 MXN per USD.

3 Adjusted EBITDA: Operating Income + Depreciation + Amortizations + other non-cash charges.

4 ex-KOF: FEMSA Consolidated reported information – Coca-Cola FEMSA Consolidated reported information.

EBITDA ex-KOF: FEMSA Consolidated EBITDA as described above – Coca-Cola FEMSA’s Consolidated EBITDA + Dividends received by FEMSA from Coca-Cola FEMSA and other investments.

Total revenues increased 15.1% in 1Q24 compared to 1Q23, reflecting 9.7% average same-store sales for the Proximity Americas Division, driven by 7.3% growth in average customer ticket and an increase of 2.2% in store traffic. These figures reflect a strong performance across all OXXO’s categories, mainly supported by thirst and gathering occasions, such as beer, soft drinks, and snacks. During the quarter, the OXXO store base in Mexico & Latam expanded by 424 units to reach 1,675 total net store additions for the last twelve months. As of March 31, 2024, Proximity Americas had a total of 23,290 OXXO stores.

 

Gross profit reached 42.0% of total revenues, reflecting a 170-basis points expansion resulting from higher contribution of financial services and revenue growth management initiatives which contributed to better pricing dynamics and an increase in commercial income.

 

Income from operations represented 7.1% of total revenues, 20 basis points below 1Q23. Operating expenses increased 21.7% to Ps. 24,444 million, reflecting the addition of new stores and higher labor expenses, particularly in Mexico.

1Q24 Financial Summary

      1Q24       1Q23       Var.  
Total Revenues     10,939       10,111       8.2 %

Adjusted EBITDA     1,670       1,328       25.8 %
     Adjusted EBITDA Margin (%)     15.3       13.1       220 bps

 

Total revenues increased 8.2% in 1Q24 compared to 1Q23, reflecting robust performance in both the B2B business and retail sales across all countries. This was primarily driven by strong promotional income and the addition of new B2B customers, partially offset by an impact in traffic caused by labor strikes in Germany during the quarter. By the end of the period, Proximity Europe had 2,789 points of sale.

 

Gross profit reached 43.2% of total revenues, reflecting a 100 basis-point expansion driven by a sustained positive performance in the B2B business, a positive price-mix effect, and higher promotional income.

 

Income from operations represented 3.5% of total revenues, driven by contributions from the B2B business, and proportional increase of operating expenses to sales. Operating expenses rose by 5.3% to Ps. 4,342 million, primarily due to higher costs of rent and labor.

Total revenues decreased 2.3% in 1Q24 compared to 1Q23, impacted by several factors, driven mainly by ongoing challenges in institutional sales in Colombia, a complex macroeconomic environment in Ecuador, persistent competition in Mexico, and a reduced number of stores during the quarter compared to the same quarter of last year. During the quarter, the store base was reduced by 34 units reaching a total of 4,440 locations across our territories, as of March 31, 2024. This figure reflects the addition of 254 net new locations in the last twelve months. Same-store sales decreased by an average of 0.1%, reflecting the trends described above.

 

Gross profit was 28.8% of total revenues, reflecting a tough comparison base from higher commercial income in 1Q23, as well as a negative price-mix effect, and lower sales resulting from the decrease in the number of stores compared to 1Q23.

 

Income from operations amounted to 3.3% of total revenues. Operating expenses decreased 1.9% to Ps. 4,625 million, reflecting tight expense control.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

 

· On March 15, 2024, FEMSA announced that, consistent with its capital allocation framework and commitment to enhance capital returns to shareholders, it has entered into a derivative instrument known as an accelerated share repurchase (“ASR”) agreement with a financial institution in the United States of America, to repurchase the Company’s shares through the acquisition of American Depositary Shares (“ADS”). Under the terms of the ASR agreement, FEMSA has agreed to repurchase from such financial institution an aggregate amount of USD $400 million of its ADS. The ASR contemplates an initial delivery of approximately 20% of the ADS on or about March 19, 2024.

 

The total number of ADS ultimately repurchased under the ASR agreement will be based on the daily volume-weighted average price of the Company’s ADS during the term of the agreement, subject to certain limitations. The final settlement of the ASR agreement is expected to be completed no later than the third quarter of 2024.

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

 

"As we reflect on a positive first quarter, I am encouraged by the progress we are making across our strategic priorities. We continue implementing a sustainable growth model, building on the positive momentum of our core business. To this end, we posted solid volumes in key markets such as Mexico, Brazil, Colombia, Guatemala, and our Central America South territories, supporting our top-line and operating income to achieve double-digit growth.

 

Additionally, we continue laying the foundation to take Juntos+ to the next level with advanced artificial intelligence capabilities. During the quarter, we successfully launched Juntos+ version 4.0 in Mexico, which includes new features and an improved user experience, enabling us to serve our customers more effectively. Moreover, we continue fostering a customer-centric culture within our organization with the deployment of our KOF Principles.

 

All this would not be possible without the dedication and talent of our teams across our operations, and our shared commitment to creating long-term sustainable value for all of our stakeholders. As we progress throughout the year, we will continue focusing on these three drivers: build on the growth momentum of our core business, take Juntos+ to the next level, and foster a customer-centric and psychologically safe culture."

CONSOLIDATED FIRST QUARTER RESULTS

 

 

CONSOLIDATED FIRST QUARTER RESULTS

 

    As Reported     Comparable (1)  
Expressed in millions of Mexican pesos   1Q 2024     1Q 2023     Δ%     Δ%  
Total revenues     63,803       57,357       11.2 %     17.7 %
Gross profit     28,428       25,458       11.7 %     18.5 %
Operating income     8,617       7,724       11.6 %     18.9 %
Adj. EBITDA (2)     11,944       10,522       13.5 %     21.7 %

 

Volume increased 7.3% to 1,008.6 million unit cases, driven by volume growth in most of our territories, including a strong performance in Mexico, Brazil, Colombia, Guatemala, and our Central America South territories, partially offset by a decrease in Argentina, Panama, and Uruguay.

 

Total revenues increased 11.2% to Ps. 63,803 million. This increase was driven mainly by solid volume growth, partially offset by unfavorable currency translation effects of most of our operating currencies into Mexican Pesos. Excluding currency translation effects, total revenues increased 17.7%.

 

Gross profit increased 11.7% to Ps. 28,428 million, and gross margin increased 20 basis points to 44.6%. This expansion was driven mainly by the operating leverage resulting from our top-line growth, and the appreciation of most of our operating currencies as applied to our U.S. dollar-denominated raw material costs. These effects were partially offset by higher sweetener costs across our territories and the depreciation of the Argentine Peso as compared to the same period of the previous year. Excluding currency translation effects, gross profit increased 18.5%.

 

Operating income increased 11.6% to Ps. 8,617 million, and operating margin remained flat at 13.5%. Operating income was driven mainly by gross profit growth and expense efficiencies. These effects were partially offset by increases in operating expenses such as labor, freight, and maintenance. In addition, our comparison base included a larger non-cash operating foreign exchange gain in Mexico, as a result of the appreciation of the Mexican Peso in the same period of the previous year. Excluding currency translation effects, operating income increased 18.9%.

Comprehensive financing result recorded an expense of Ps. 1,188 million, compared to an expense of Ps. 1,399 million in the previous year. This decrease was driven mainly by a foreign exchange gain of Ps. 26 million as compared to a loss of Ps. 640 million during the same period of the previous year. This loss was driven as our net cash exposure in U.S. dollars was negatively impacted by the quarterly appreciation of the Mexican Peso and the Brazilian Real.

 

In addition, we recognized a lower interest expense of Ps. 1,797 million as compared to an expense of Ps. 1,913 million in the same period of the previous year, mainly as a result of (i) a lower interest expense related to the maturity of a Mexican Peso denominated bond, and (ii) a decrease in interest rates in Brazil.

 

These effects were partially offset by a lower interest income of Ps. 623 million as compared to Ps. 1,042 million during the same period of the previous year, mainly as a result of a decrease in interest rates in Brazil and Mexico.

 

Additionally, we recorded a loss in financial instruments of Ps. 46 million as compared to a gain of Ps. 53 million in the same period of the previous year.

 

Finally, we recorded a lower gain in monetary positions in inflationary subsidiaries of Ps. 7 million, as compared to a gain of Ps. 60 million during the same period of the previous year.

 

Income tax as a percentage of income before taxes was 30.2% as compared to 32.4% during the same period of the previous year. The decrease was driven mainly by the recognition of certain non-taxable tax credits.

 

Net income attributable to equity holders of the company was Ps. 5,006 million as compared to Ps. 3,916 million during the same period of the previous year. This increase was driven mainly by operating income growth, coupled with a decrease in our comprehensive financing result. Earnings per share1 were Ps. 0.30 (Earnings per unit were Ps. 2.38 and per ADS were Ps. 23.83.).

 

 

(1) Quarterly earnings / outstanding shares. Earnings per share (EPS) were calculated using 16,806.7 million 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.

Volume increased 7.9% driven by growth across most territories in the division. Mexico volumes grew 6.9%, volumes in Guatemala grew 17.0% and in Central America South 10.6% driven by growth in Costa Rica and Nicaragua.

 

Total revenues increased 12.6% to Ps. 37,844 million, driven mainly by volume growth. This increase was partially offset by unfavorable currency translation effects from all of our operating currencies in Central America into Mexican Pesos. Excluding currency translation effects, total revenues increased 14.1%.

 

Gross profit increased 12.4% to Ps. 17,888 million, and gross margin contracted 10 basis points to 47.3%. This performance was driven mainly by our top-line growth, the appreciation of the Mexican Peso as applied to our U.S. dollar-denominated raw material costs, and favorable raw material hedging initiatives. These effects were offset by higher sweetener costs. Excluding currency translation effects, gross profit increased 13.9%.

 

Operating income increased 13.4% to Ps. 5,681 million, and operating margin increased 10 basis points to 15.0%, driven mainly by our top-line growth and variable expense efficiencies. These effects were offset by higher sweetener costs and higher expenses such as labor, marketing, and freight. Additionally, we recorded a lower operating foreign exchange gain in Mexico as compared to the previous year. Excluding currency translation effects, operating income increased 15.1%.

Adj. EBITDA (2)     4,200       3,816       10.1 %     30.7 %

 

Volume increased 6.6%, driven mainly by a 10.4% growth in Brazil and 9.7% in Colombia, partially offset by a 16.9% decline in Argentina and 3.6% in Uruguay.

 

Total revenues increased 9.3% to Ps. 25,958 million, driven mainly by our volume growth. This increase was partially offset by unfavorable currency translation effects of most of our operating currencies in the division into Mexican Pesos. Excluding currency translation effects, total revenues increased 23.4%.

 

Gross profit increased 10.5% to Ps. 10,540 million, and gross margin expanded 40 basis points to 40.6%. This increase was driven mainly by operating leverage due to our top-line growth and favorable raw material hedging strategies. This growth was partially offset by increases in raw material costs such as sweeteners and the depreciation of most of our operating currencies as applied to our U.S dollar denominated raw material costs. Excluding currency translation effects, gross profit increased 27.4%.

 

Operating income increased 8.2% to Ps. 2,935 million in the first quarter of 2024, resulting in an operating margin contraction of 10 basis points to 11.3%. This increase was driven mainly by operating leverage coupled with cost and expense efficiencies. These effects were offset by the top-line contraction resulting from the volatile macroeconomic situation in Argentina. Excluding currency translation effects, operating income increased 27.0%.

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.”

 

Adjusted 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; 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.
