Ian Craig, Coca-Cola FEMSA’s CEO, commented:
“Before commenting on our quarterly results, I would like to express our deepest condolences to everyone affected by the earthquakes in Venezuela. Our thoughts are with the impacted communities, as we provide support to people in need and first responders including Coca-Cola FEMSA de Venezuela employees and their families.
During the second quarter, we delivered a sequential recovery that highlights the strength of Coca-Cola FEMSA’s diversified market presence. Across our territories, we continued to grow the beverage industry, gain market share, and advance our digital agenda. We also leveraged the FIFA World Cup, strengthening brand equity and reinforcing our connection with consumers.
While Mexico continued to navigate a challenging consumer environment and the effects of the excise tax increase, our affordability strategy, segmentation, and disciplined commercial execution enabled us to further strengthen our competitive position. At the same time, South America delivered a solid quarter, with Colombia, Guatemala, and Brazil achieving record second-quarter volumes that ultimately resulted in double digit operating income growth in the business unit.
As we look to the second half of the year, we remain focused on adapting to the evolving consumer environment, accelerating our digital transformation, and leveraging our revenue growth management capabilities. We are confident that these initiatives, together with our disciplined execution and diversified footprint, will enable us to navigate near-term challenges while continuing to generate sustainable long-term growth.”

CONSOLIDATED SECOND QUARTER RESULTS
Volume increased 3.5% to 1,071.8 million-unit cases, driven by volume growth in most of our operations that was partially offset by a decline in Argentina.
Total revenues increased 4.7% to Ps. 76,318 million. This increase was driven mainly by volume growth, coupled with revenue management initiatives, which were partially offset by unfavorable mix and negative translation effects from most our operating currencies into Mexican pesos. Excluding currency translation effects, total revenues increased 6.6%.
Gross profit increased 8.8% to Ps. 35,938 million, and gross margin expanded 180 basis points to 47.1%. This expansion was driven mainly by lower sweetener and PET costs supported our raw material hedging initiatives, coupled with 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 aluminum costs, coupled with unfavorable mix effects. Excluding currency translation effects, gross profit increased 10.7%.
Operating income increased 9.1% to Ps. 10,654 million, and operating margin expanded 60 basis points to 14.0%. This margin expansion was driven mainly by operating leverage and expense efficiencies such as labor and rent. These effects were partially offset by an increase in freight, marketing, and depreciation. Moreover, we registered a lower operative foreign exchange gain in the quarter as compared to the same period of the previous year. In addition, this quarter we recognized an income of Ps. 265 million, net of expenses, related to insurance claims in Brazil. Excluding currency translation effects, operating income increased 11.1%.
Comprehensive financing result recorded an expense of Ps. 1,331 million, compared to an expense of Ps. 1,189 million in the previous year. This increase was driven mainly by a higher interest expense, net, resulting from the issuance of a new debt during the first quarter of 2026 in Mexican pesos. Moreover, we recorded an increase in interest income because of a higher cash position in key markets.
In addition, we recorded a lower gain in financial instruments of Ps. 88 million, as compared to a gain of Ps. 154 million recorded in the same period of the previous year. This lower gain was driven mainly by the valuation of matured financial instruments and lower rates in Brazil.
Additionally, we recognized a gain in monetary positions in inflationary subsidiaries related to Argentina for Ps. 74 million as compared to a gain of Ps. 77 million recorded in the same period of the previous year.
These effects were partially offset by a foreign exchange gain of Ps. 96 million in the second quarter of 2026 as compared to a gain of Ps. 55 million in the same period of the previous year. The gain this year was driven mainly by the quarterly appreciation of the Mexican peso as applied to our U.S. dollar-denominated net debt position.
Income tax as a percentage of income before taxes was 30.2% as compared to 36.2% during the same period of 2025. This decrease was driven mainly by non-recurring effects that resulted in higher income tax in the previous year, coupled with higher tax recovery.
Net income attributable to equity holders of the company increased 16.9% to reach Ps. 6,211 million. This increase was driven mainly by an increase in our operating income and a lower income tax, partially offset by an increase in our comprehensive financing result. Earnings per share were Ps. 0.37 (Earnings per unit were Ps. 2.96 and per ADS were Ps. 29.57.).
CONSOLIDATED FIRST SIX MONTHS RESULTS
Volume increased 2.4% to 2,070.2 million-unit cases, driven mainly by volume increases in most of our operations, partially offset by a slight volume decline in Mexico.
Total revenues increased 3.1% to Ps. 147,153 million. This increase was driven mainly by volume growth, partially offset by unfavorable currency translation effects from most of our operating currencies into Mexican pesos and mix effects. Excluding currency translation effects, total revenues increased 8.1%.
Gross profit increased 6.9% to Ps. 69,153 million, and gross margin expanded 160 basis points to 47.0%. This performance was driven mainly by lower sweetener costs, top-line growth, raw material hedging initiatives, and the appreciation of most of our operating currencies as applied to our U.S. dollar-denominated raw material costs. Excluding currency translation effects, gross profit increased 11.9%.
Operating income increased 3.6% to Ps. 19,678 million, and operating margin expanded 10 basis points to 13.4%. This margin expansion was driven mainly by higher operating leverage; in addition, we recognized an income related to insurance claims in Brazil and Mexico for a total of Ps. 360 million. These effects were offset by higher marketing, depreciation, freight, and maintenance expenses. Moreover, we registered a lower operative foreign exchange gain in the period as compared to the same period of the previous year. Excluding currency translation effects, operating income increased 8.2%.
Comprehensive financing result recorded an expense of Ps. 3,083 million, compared to an expense of Ps. 2,308 million in the same period of the previous year. This increase was driven mainly by a higher interest expense, net, of Ps. 3,159 million as compared to Ps. 2,749 million in the same period of the previous year resulting from higher interest expense, driven mainly by new debt issued during the second quarter of 2025 and the first quarter of 2026.
Additionally, we recorded a loss in financial instruments of Ps. 79 million as compared to a gain of Ps. 288 million in the same period of the previous year, resulting from the market value of financial instruments.
These effects were partially offset by a higher gain in monetary positions in inflationary subsidiaries related to Argentina for Ps. 175 million as compared to a gain of Ps. 154 million in the same period of the previous year.
Income tax as a percentage of income before taxes was 33.1% as compared to 34.8% during the same period of 2025. This decrease was driven mainly by non-recurring effects that resulted in higher income tax in the previous year, coupled with higher tax recovery.
Net income attributable to equity holders of the company was Ps. 10,553 million as compared to Ps 10,450 million during the same period of the previous year.

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 refer 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 / shares outstanding.” Earnings per share (EPS) calculated using 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 translation effects resulting from exchange rate movements. In preparing this measure, management has used its best judgment, estimates, and assumptions to maintain comparability.
Due to the average depreciation of the Argentine peso and most of the operating currencies relative to the Mexican peso in the second quarter of 2026, as compared to the same period of 2025, we had an unfavorable currency translation effect into Mexican pesos. Please see page 17 for exchange rate fluctuations.
