Insights

Global beverages equity analyst

AB InBev posts double‑digit profit and EBITDA growth on flat volumes.

AB InBev grew revenue 12% to USD 15,267 million with volumes essentially flat, showing that pricing, premium brands and Beyond Beer drove performance. Profit from operations rose 16.7% to USD 4,129 million, and Normalized EBITDA increased 12% to USD 5,437 million.

Underlying profit attributable to equity holders reached USD 1,923 million, with Underlying EPS of USD 0.97, up from USD 0.81. Middle and South America were key contributors, while Asia Pacific softened. Hyperinflation accounting in Argentina and currency movements remained notable factors in reported growth.

Net finance expense stayed sizeable at USD 418 million, though partially offset by a positive USD 631 million mark‑to‑market on derivatives in Q1 2026. Subsequent filings may provide more detail on how regional trends and digital platforms like BEES continue to influence revenue mix and margins.

Normalized EBITDA financial

"Our Normalized EBITDA amounted to USD 5,437 million for the three-month period ended 31 March 2026."

Normalized EBITDA is a measure of a company's profitability that adjusts earnings to remove irregular or one-time items, such as unusual expenses or income, to reflect its typical operating performance. It helps investors compare companies more accurately by presenting a clearer picture of ongoing profitability, free from short-term fluctuations or special circumstances that might distort the results.

Underlying EPS financial

"Underlying EPS for the three-month period ended 31 March 2026 was USD 0.97."

Underlying EPS is a company’s earnings per share calculated after removing one-time or unusual items so the number reflects the firm’s regular, ongoing profit per share. Think of it as your monthly take-home pay after ignoring a one-off bonus or unexpected bill — it helps investors see the business’s steady earning power and compare performance across periods without the distortion of irregular events.

hyperinflation accounting financial

"The impact of hyperinflation accounting for the three-month period ended 31 March 2026 amounted to USD 20 million increase in revenue."

Hyperinflation accounting is a set of bookkeeping rules used when a country’s currency is losing value extremely fast, requiring companies to adjust their financial records so numbers reflect real purchasing power instead of outdated cash amounts. For investors, it matters because these adjustments change reported profits, asset values and cash balances—like updating a shopping list during runaway price hikes—so comparisons across time or with companies in stable economies remain meaningful.

IAS 29 regulatory

"we have applied hyperinflation accounting as prescribed by IAS 29 Financial Reporting in Hyperinflationary Economies for our Argentine subsidiaries."

IAS 29 is an accounting rule that tells companies how to adjust their financial statements when they operate in economies with very high inflation, so numbers reflect current purchasing power rather than outdated prices. For investors, it matters because it converts historic figures into meaningful, comparable values—like updating old price tags to today’s dollars—helping assess real profits, assets and liabilities and avoid being misled by inflation-distorted results.

mark-to-market adjustment financial

"Exceptional net finance income/(expense) includes a positive mark-to-market adjustment of USD 631 million on derivative instruments related to the hedging of our share-based payment programs."

A mark-to-market adjustment is an accounting change that updates the value of an asset or liability on a company’s books to what it would sell for at current market prices. Investors care because these adjustments can instantly change reported profits, losses and the company’s financial health — like reappraising a house and seeing your net worth rise or fall overnight — which affects valuation, risk assessment and investment decisions.

gross merchandise value (GMV) financial

"In the three-month period ended 31 March 2026, BEES reached USD 14.6 billion in gross merchandise value (“GMV”)."

Gross merchandise value (GMV) measures the total dollar value of all goods and services sold through a marketplace or sales platform over a set period, before subtracting returns, discounts, fees or the portion the company keeps. Investors watch GMV like a traffic counter — it shows how large and active a business’s marketplace is and how fast it’s growing, but it does not equal actual revenue or profit and must be combined with margin and fee information to assess financial health.

• continued geopolitical instability (including as a result of the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine, and conflicts and developments in the Middle East and Latin America), which may have a substantial impact on the economies of one or more of our key markets and may result in, among other things, disruptions to global supply chains, increases in commodity and energy prices with follow-on inflationary impacts, and economic and political sanctions;

• financial risks, such as interest rate risk, foreign exchange rate risk (in particular as against the U.S. dollar, our reporting currency), commodity risk, asset price risk, equity market risk, counterparty risk, sovereign risk, liquidity risk, inflation or deflation, including inability to achieve our optimal net debt level;

• changes in government policies and currency controls;

• continued availability of financing and our ability to achieve our targeted coverage and debt levels and terms, including the risk of constraints on financing in the event of a credit rating downgrade;

• the monetary and interest rate policies of central banks, in particular the European Central Bank, the Board of Governors of the U.S. Federal Reserve System, the Bank of England, Banco Central do Brasil, Banco Central de la República Argentina, the Central Bank of China, the South African Reserve Bank, Banco de la República in Colombia, the Bank of Mexico and other central banks;

• changes in consumer preferences, spending and behavior;

• changes in pricing environments;

• volatility in the availability or prices of raw materials, commodities and energy;

• damage to our reputation or the image and reputation of our brands;

• difficulties in maintaining relationships with employees;

• regional or general changes in asset valuations;

• greater than expected costs (including taxes) and expenses;

• climate change and other environmental concerns;

• the risk of unexpected consequences resulting from acquisitions, joint ventures, strategic alliances, corporate reorganizations or divestiture plans, and our ability to successfully and cost-effectively implement these transactions and integrate the operations of businesses or other assets we have acquired;

• the outcome of pending and future litigation, investigations and governmental proceedings;

• natural and other disasters, including widespread health emergencies, cyberattacks and military conflict and political instability;

• any inability to economically hedge certain risks;

• inadequate impairment provisions and loss reserves;

• technological disruptions, threats to cybersecurity and the risk of loss or misuse of personal data;

• other statements included in this document that are not historical; and

• our success in managing the risks involved in the foregoing.

Many of these risks and uncertainties are, and will be, exacerbated by geopolitical instability and unpredictability and any worsening of the global business and economic environment as a result. Our statements regarding financial risks, including interest rate risk, foreign exchange rate risk, commodity risk, asset price risk, equity market risk, counterparty risk, sovereign risk, inflation and deflation, are subject to uncertainty. For example, certain market and financial risk disclosures are dependent on choices about key model characteristics and assumptions and are subject to various limitations. By their nature, certain of the market or financial risk disclosures are only estimates and, as a result, actual future gains and losses could differ materially from those that have been estimated.

We caution that the forward-looking statements in this document are further qualified by the risk factors disclosed in “Item 3. Key Information—D. Risk Factors” of our 2025 Annual Report that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. Subject to our obligations under Belgian and U.S. law in relation to disclosure and ongoing information, we undertake no obligation to update publicly or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Excluding the impact from the year-over-year price growth in Argentina beyond the Hyperinflationary Price Cap, the 2025 and 2026 acquisitions and disposals and currency translation effects, our Normalized EBITDA increased by 5.3%, primarily driven by revenue performance as disciplined resource allocation and overhead management offset transactional FX headwinds.
