Mondelez International, Inc. Annual Report, Year Ended Dec 31, 2025

Feb 4, 2026

Mondelez International, Inc. reported net revenues of $38.5 billion for the fiscal year ended December 30, 2025, representing a 5.8% increase compared to the previous year. This growth was primarily driven by higher net pricing and the acquisition of Evirth, partially offset by unfavorable volume/mix and the lapping of a prior-year distributor agreement. Despite revenue growth, reported operating income and net earnings saw significant declines due to substantial mark-to-market losses on derivatives and increased operating costs, particularly for raw materials like cocoa. Adjusted EPS decreased by 12.8% (14.6% on a constant currency basis), reflecting these cost pressures and a less favorable operational performance year-over-year. The company continues to focus on its four strategic priorities: accelerating consumer-centric growth, driving operational excellence, building a winning growth culture, and scaling sustainable snacking. While the company navigates a challenging macroeconomic environment characterized by inflation and supply chain disruptions, it is also investing in its digital transformation and innovation capabilities. The company maintained its commitment to returning capital to shareholders through dividends and share repurchases, with $6.7 billion remaining under its current share repurchase authorization.

Despite the revenue increase, reported operating income and net earnings saw a significant decline year-over-year, largely due to lapping prior-year gains on equity method transactions, unfavorable mark-to-market impacts, and costs associated with the war in Ukraine, the European Commission legal matter, and integration expenses.

The company operates across four segments: Latin America, AMEA, Europe, and North America, with all segments contributing to net revenue growth, particularly Latin America and North America.
