FEMSA Grows Operating Income

High Single Digit in 2Q13

 

Monterrey, Mexico, July 25, 2013 — Fomento Económico Mexicano, S.A.B. de C.V. (“FEMSA”) announced today its operational and financial results for the second quarter of 2013.

 

Second Quarter 2013 Highlights:

 

·FEMSA income from operations grew 9.1% compared to the second quarter of 2012, reflecting growth at Coca-Cola FEMSA and FEMSA Comercio. On an organic basis1 income from operations grew 8.0%.

 

·Coca-Cola FEMSA income from operations increased 9.1% compared to the second quarter of 2012, mainly driven by lower sugar prices combined with the appreciation of the Mexican peso as applied to Coca-Cola FEMSA’s U.S. dollar-denominated raw material costs. On an organic basis1 income from operations increased 7.6%.

 

·FEMSA Comercio achieved total revenues growth of 11.7% and income from operations growth of 6.7% compared to the second quarter of 2012, driven by 1,026 net new store openings in the last twelve months.

 

José Antonio Fernández Carbajal, Chairman and CEO of FEMSA, commented: “As is sometimes the case, our quarterly results include reasons to be optimistic, but also a few challenging areas. At Coca-Cola FEMSA, in spite of sluggish macro growth, again it was Mexico that provided the positive momentum on the back of improved profitability, driven by strong execution and a favorable raw material environment. Performance in South America remained muted, particularly in Brazil. And FEMSA Comercio had results that reflect tough comparisons, a soft consumer environment in Mexico, and some continued pressure from the telephony category. It is too soon to tell whether the second half will show a meaningful improvement, however the level of economic activity is expected to gradually increase and we are cautiously optimistic about the rest of the year. Most importantly, the long-term structural advantages across our businesses continue to strengthen and we will continue to execute our strategy and will keep investing to improve and expand our competitive position across our operations. On that note, during the quarter we closed the acquisitions of Farmacias Yza and Farmacias Moderna on the retail front in Mexico, and we announced the acquisition of Fluminense on the bottling front in Brazil. So we keep moving forward at a solid, steady pace.”

FEMSA Consolidated

 

Total revenues increased 4.1% compared to 2Q12 to Ps. 62.047 billion in 2Q13. FEMSA Comercio drove the growth in consolidated revenues. On an organic basis1 total revenues increased 3.1% compared to 2Q12. For the first half of 2013, consolidated total revenues increased 4.8% compared to the same period in 2012 to Ps. 119.289 billion. On an organic basis1, total revenues for the first half of 2012 decreased 1.3% compared to the same period in 2012.

 

Gross profit increased 5.3% compared to 2Q12 to Ps. 26.325 billion in 2Q13. Gross margin increased 50 basis points compared to the same period in 2012 to 42.4% of total revenues, driven by margin expansion at Coca-Cola FEMSA.

 

For the first half of 2013, gross profit increased 6.2% compared to the same period in 2012 to Ps. 50.095 billion. Gross margin increased 60 basis points compared to the same period in 2012 to 42.0% of total revenues, driven by margin expansion at both Coca-Cola FEMSA and FEMSA Comercio.

 

Income from operations increased 9.1% as compared to 2Q12 to Ps. 7.294 billion in 2Q13. On an organic basis1 income from operations increased 8.0% compared to the same period in 2012. Consolidated operating margin increased 60 basis points compared to 2Q12 to 11.8% of total revenues in 2Q13, due to gross margin improvements at Coca-Cola FEMSA driven by lower sugar prices combined with the appreciation of the Mexican peso as applied to Coca-Cola FEMSA’s U.S. dollar-denominated raw material costs.

 

For the first half of 2013, income from operations increased 4.5% compared to the same period in 2012 to Ps. 12.499 billion. Our consolidated operating margin year-to-date remained at 10.5% as a percentage of total revenues as compared to the same period of 2012.

 

Our effective income tax rate was 31.2% in 2Q13 compared to a tough comparable base of 23.5% in 2Q12 resulting from a tax shield related to interests on capital, including a dividend declared by the South America division of Coca-Cola FEMSA.

 

Net consolidated income decreased 6.6% compared to 2Q12 to Ps. 5.078 billion in 2Q13, as a result of (i) a swing from a significant foreign exchange gain in 2Q12 to a foreign exchange loss in 2Q13, mainly due to the effect of the devaluation of the Mexican Peso on the US Dollar-denominated component of our cash position in 2Q12, and (ii) higher interest expense related to bonds issued recently both by FEMSA and Coca-Cola FEMSA.

 

For the first half of 2013, net consolidated income decreased 1.9% to Ps. 9.055 billion compared to the same period of 2012, resulting from higher financing expenses which were partially offset by the growth in income from operations.

 

Net majority income for 2Q13 was Ps. 1.00 per FEMSA Unit2. Net majority income per FEMSA ADS was US$ 0.77 for the second quarter of 2013. For the first half of 2013, net majority income per FEMSA Unit1 was Ps. 1.74 (US$ 1.34 per ADS).

 

Capital expenditures amounted to Ps. 3.581 billion in 2Q13, reflecting incremental investments at Coca-Cola FEMSA and FEMSA Comercio.

 

Our consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2013 recorded a cash balance of Ps. 46.572 billion (US$ 3.585 billion), an increase of Ps. 8.456 billion (US$ 650.8 million) compared to December 31, 2012. Short-term debt was Ps. 11.686 billion (US$ 899.4 million), while long-term debt was Ps. 44.457 billion (US$ 3.422 billion). Our consolidated net debt balance was Ps. 9.571 billion (US$ 736.7 million).

FEMSA Comercio

 

Total revenues increased 11.7% compared to 2Q12 to Ps. 24.808 billion in 2Q13, mainly driven by the opening of 279 net new stores in the quarter reaching 1,026 total net new store openings for the last twelve months. As of June 30, 2013, FEMSA Comercio had a total of 11,015 convenience stores. Same-store sales increased an average of 0.9% for the second quarter of 2013 over 2Q12, reflecting a 1.1% increase in average customer ticket that offset a 0.1% decrease in store traffic.

 

For the first half of 2013, total revenues increased 12.8% compared to the same period in 2012 to Ps. 46.511 billion. FEMSA Comercio’s same-store sales increased an average of 2.7% compared to the same period in 2012, driven by a 3.4% increase in average customer ticket that offset a 0.7% decrease in store traffic.

 

Gross profit increased by 12.1% in 2Q13 compared to 2Q12, resulting in a 10 basis point gross margin expansion to 34.6% of total revenues. This increase reflects a more efficient use of promotion-related marketing resources and a better execution of segmented pricing strategies across markets. For the first half of 2013, gross margin expanded by 50 basis points compared to the same period in 2012 to 34.0% of total revenues.

 

Income from operations increased 6.7% over 2Q12 to Ps. 1.952 billion in 2Q13. Operating expenses increased 13.8% in 2Q13 to Ps. 6.628 billion, reflecting the growing number of stores and distribution centers as well as incremental expenses relating to, among other things, the development of specialized distribution routes aimed at enabling our prepared food initiatives. Operating margin contracted 30 basis points compared to 2Q12, to 7.9% of total revenues in 2Q13.

 

For the first half of 2013, income from operations increased 11.1% compared to the same period in 2012 to Ps. 2.923 billion, resulting in an operating margin of 6.3%, which represents a 10 basis point contraction from the same period in the prior year.

All the financial information presented in this report was prepared under International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).

The Company’s Mexico & Central America divisions’ operating results include the non-comparable effect of Grupo Fomento Queretano’s results for the month of April, 2013 and Grupo Yoli’s results for the month of June, 2013.

As of February 2013, we are incorporating our stake of the results of Coca-Cola Bottlers Philippines, Inc. through the equity method on an estimated basis.

 

Our reported total revenues reached Ps. 36,260 million in the second quarter of 2013, remaining flat as compared to the second quarter of 2012. Our Mexico & Central America division’s total revenues, including the integration of Grupo Fomento Queretano (“FOQUE”) and Grupo Yoli (“YOLI”) in our Mexican operations,(1) grew 6.3% and compensated for a negative translation effect in our South America division resulting from the devaluation of the Venezuelan bolivar(2), the Argentine peso(2), the Brazilian real(2) and the Colombian peso(2). On a currency neutral basis and excluding the non-comparable effect of FOQUE and YOLI, total revenues grew 12.7%, driven by average price per unit case growth in almost every territory and volume growth mainly in Colombia, Venezuela, Central America and Argentina.

 

Reported total sales volume increased 3.5% to reach 796.7 million unit cases in the second quarter of 2013 as compared to the same period in 2012. Excluding the non-comparable effect of FOQUE and YOLI in Mexico(1), volumes grew 1.1% reaching 778.7 million unit cases. On the same basis, the still beverage category grew 7.1%, mainly driven by the performance of the Jugos del Valle line of business in Mexico and Colombia, and the continued growth of Powerade and FUZE Tea. In addition, our sparkling beverage category grew 1% driven by a 2% growth of brand Coca-Cola and our bottled water category grew 6.6%. These increases compensated for a 2.0% decline in our bulk water business.

 

Our reported gross profit increased 2.9% to Ps. 17,185 million in the second quarter of 2013, as compared to the second quarter of 2012. Lower sugar prices in our territories in combination with the appreciation of the average exchange rate of the Mexican peso(2), compensated for the depreciation of the average exchange rate of the Venezuelan bolivar(2), the Argentine peso(2), the Brazilian real(2) and the Colombian peso(2) as applied to our U.S. dollar-denominated raw material costs. Reported gross margin reached 47.4%, an expansion of 140 basis points as compared to the second quarter of 2012.

 

Our reported operating income grew 9.1% to Ps. 5,142 million, recording a margin expansion of 120 basis points to reach an operating margin of 14.2% in the second quarter of 2013. In local currency and excluding the non-comparable effect of FOQUE and YOLI in Mexico(1), operating expenses increased mainly as a result of higher labor and freight costs across the South America division and continued marketing investments across our territories to support our marketplace execution and bolster our returnable packaging base.

 

During the second quarter of 2013, the other operative expenses, net line registered a net gain of Ps. 24 million as result of certain restructuring charges across our operations that were compensated by a favorable operative currency fluctuation effect on certain of our U.S. dollar-denominated accounts payable in Venezuela.

 

The share of the profits of associates and joint ventures line recorded a gain of Ps. 130 million, mainly due to equity method gains from our participation in Coca-Cola Bottlers Philippines, Inc., Jugos del Valle in México and Leao Alimentos in Brazil.

 

Our comprehensive financing result in the second quarter of 2013 recorded an expense of Ps. 1,087 million as compared to an expense of Ps. 478 million in the same period of 2012. This difference was mainly driven by higher interest expense, net as a consequence of a higher debt position and a foreign exchange loss originated by the quarterly depreciation of the Mexican peso(2) on our US Dollar denominated net debt position.

 

During the second quarter of 2013, income tax, as a percentage of income before taxes, was 28.4% as compared to 24.2% in the same period of 2012. The lower effective tax rate registered during the second quarter of 2012, resulted from a tax shield related to interests on capital, included in a dividend declared by our Brazilian subsidiary.

 

Our reported net income attributable to equity holders of the Company reached Ps. 2,807 million in the second quarter of 2013. Earnings per share (EPS) in the second quarter of 2013 were Ps. 1.37 (Ps. 13.70 per ADS) computed on the basis of 2,048.2 million shares(3) (each ADS represents 10 local shares).

Net debt increased Ps. 11,171 million compared to year end 2012, mainly as a consequence of the issuance of the Certificados Bursátiles during May of 2013 and the cash outflows related to the acquisitions of Coca-Cola Bottlers Philippines, Inc. and Grupo Yoli, in addition to the payment of the first installment of the 2012 dividend. The Company’s total debt balance includes U.S. dollar-denominated debt in the amount of US$1,102 million.(1)

The Company’s Mexico & Central America divisions’ operating results include the non-comparable effect of Grupo Fomento Queretano’s results for the months of January, 2013 through April, 2013 and Grupo Yoli’s results for the month of June, 2013.

As of February 2013, we are incorporating our stake of the results of Coca-Cola Bottlers Philippines, Inc. through the equity method on an estimated basis.

 

Our consolidated total revenues grew 0.7% to Ps. 70,852 million in the first six months of 2013, as compared to the same period of 2012. High single-digit revenue growth in our Mexico & Central America Division, including the integration of FOQUE and YOLI in our Mexican operations,(1) compensated for a negative translation effect in our South America division resulting from the devaluation of the Venezuelan bolivar(2), the Argentine peso(2), the Brazilian real(2) and the Colombian peso(2). On a currency neutral basis and excluding the non-comparable effect of FOQUE and YOLI, total revenues grew 13.3%, in the first half of 2013.

 

Total sales volume increased 3.7% to 1,527.3 million unit cases in the first six months of 2013, as compared to the same period in 2012. Excluding the non-comparable effect of FOQUE and YOLI in Mexico, volumes grew 0.8% to 1,484.6 million unit cases. On the same basis, the still beverage category grew 7.5%, mainly driven by the performance of the Jugos del Valle line of business in Mexico, Venezuela and Colombia and the continued growth of Powerade and FUZE Tea. In addition, our bottled water category grew 5.5% and our sparkling beverage category remained flat. These increases compensated for a 2.4% decline in our bulk water business.

 

Our gross profit increased 3.4% to Ps. 33,250 million in the first six months of 2013, as compared to the same period of 2012. Lower sugar prices in most of our territories in combination with the appreciation of the average exchange rate of the Mexican peso(2), compensated for the depreciation of the average exchange rate of the Venezuelan bolivar(2), the Argentine peso(2), the Brazilian real(2) and the Colombian peso(2) as applied to our U.S. dollar-denominated raw material costs. Reported gross margin reached 46.9%, an expansion of 120 basis points as compared to the first six months of 2012.

 

Our consolidated operating income increased 2.3% to Ps. 9,301 million, recording a margin expansion of 20 basis points to reach an operating margin of 13.1% in the first six months of 2013. In local currency and excluding the non-comparable effect of FOQUE and YOLI in Mexico(1), operating expenses increased mainly as a result of (i) higher labor and freight costs in our South America division and (ii) continued marketing investments to support our marketplace execution and bolster our returnable packaging base.

 

During the first half of 2013, the other operative expenses, net line registered an expense of Ps. 227 million mainly due to (i) the effect of the devaluation of the Venezuelan bolivar(2) on our U.S. dollar-denominated accounts payable in that operation and (ii) certain restructuring expenses across our operations, including those registered in the recently merged franchises, which results are now fully comparable.

 

The share of the profits of associates and joint ventures line recorded a gain of Ps. 148 million, mainly due to equity method gains from our participation in Coca-Cola Bottlers Philippines, Inc., Jugos del Valle in Mexico and Leao Alimentos in Brazil.

 

Our reported net income attributable to equity holders of the Company reached Ps. 5,280 million in the first six months of 2013 as compared to the same period of 2012. Earnings per share (EPS) in the first six months of 2013 were Ps. 2.59 (Ps. 25.89 per ADS) computed on the basis of 2,039.4 million shares(3) outstanding (each ADS represents 10 local shares).

 

(1)The Company’s Mexico & Central America divisions’ operating results include the non-comparable effect of Grupo Fomento Queretano’s results for the months of January, 2013 through April, 2013 and Grupo Yoli’s results for the month of June, 2013
(2)See page 12 for average and end of period exchange rates for the second quarter and first six months of 2013
(3)According to International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), Earnings Per Share is computed on the basis of the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the period. The weighted average number of shares is calculated based on the number of days within a reporting period that each share was outstanding, divided by the full length of that reporting period
