Stock Track

28 Feb

Ambev SA (ABEV) shares soared 5.03% on Thursday in the intraday trading session, outperforming the broader market. The stock rally came on the back of the company's impressive Q4 2024 earnings release.

Ambev's Q4 earnings highlighted several positive growth drivers:

37% consolidated EBITDA growth over the past five years, generating nearly BRL 18 billion in free cash flow to equity
11.4% organic EBITDA growth and 170 bps gross margin expansion in 2024
Strong top-line momentum with beer gaining or maintaining market share in key markets
Digital transformation success with 88% of gross revenues from the B2B platform
Execution of 45% of share buyback program and dividend distribution approval

However, the company also faced some challenges that tempered the earnings performance:

2.3% decline in normalized profit due to tax headwinds in Brazil and Argentina market woes
Increased effective tax rate, with 60% of net value added going to taxes
Return on invested capital declined to 18.6% due to NOPAT margin contraction
Core brand Skol experienced volume declines, which is a priority for improvement in 2025
Cost headwinds expected in 2025 from currency depreciation and higher aluminum prices
