Mondelez International Inc. reported a 7.7% increase in net revenues for the second quarter of 2025, driven by a 5.6% growth in organic net revenues. This growth was attributed to higher net pricing, despite a 1.5% decline in volume/mix. The company's diluted EPS rose 8.9% to $0.49, primarily due to favorable changes in mark-to-market impacts from commodity and currency derivatives, among other factors. However, adjusted EPS experienced a 14.5% decline on a constant currency basis, reflecting operating declines and higher interest and other expenses. The company recorded a gross profit margin of 29.3%, a decrease of 13.5 percentage points compared to the previous period. Operating income stood at $1.85 billion, a 48.3% decline, resulting in an operating income margin of 10.1%. Net earnings were reported at $1.04 billion, representing a 48.2% decrease. For the remainder of 2025, Mondelez expects free cash flow to exceed $3 billion. The company also announced a 6% increase in its quarterly dividend. The outlook, however, considers potential volatility due to geopolitical, trade, and regulatory uncertainties, as well as commodity prices.
