Second Quarter Commentary
- Net revenues increased 4.1 percent driven by our underlying Organic Net Revenue growth of 2.2 percent and favorable currency-related items, partially offset by lapping prior year net revenue from a divestiture. Organic Net Revenue growth was driven by higher net pricing and favorable volume/mix.
- Gross profit increased
$1,049 million , and gross profit margin increased 990 basis points to 42.6 percent primarily driven by a favorable year-over-year change in mark-to-market impacts from commodity and foreign currency derivatives and by an increase in Adjusted Gross Profit1 margin, partially offset by incremental costs due to geopolitical conflicts, higher costs incurred for the ERP System Implementation program and an unfavorable year-over-year change in acquisition-related items. Adjusted Gross Profit increased$92 million at constant currency and Adjusted Gross Profit margin increased 20 basis points to 34.0 percent driven primarily by higher net pricing and lower manufacturing costs driven by productivity, partially offset by higher raw material costs.
- Operating income increased
$774 million , and operating income margin was 20.8 percent, up 780 basis points due primarily to a favorable year-over-year change in mark-to-market impacts from commodity and foreign currency derivatives, partially offset by lower Adjusted Operating Income1 margin, an unfavorable year-over-year change in acquisition-related items, higher costs incurred for the ERP System Implementation program, higher restructuring charges and incremental costs due to geopolitical conflicts. Adjusted Operating Income decreased$78 million at constant currency and Adjusted Operating Income margin decreased 120 basis points to 13.1 percent, driven primarily by higher raw material costs, higher other selling, general and administrative expenses and higher advertising and consumer promotion costs, partially offset by higher net pricing and lower manufacturing costs driven by productivity.
- Diluted EPS was
$1.20 , up 144.9 percent, primarily driven by a favorable year-over-year change in mark-to-market impacts from commodity and foreign currency derivatives, lower pension participation charges and initial impacts from enacted tax law changes. These favorable items were partially offset by a decrease in Adjusted EPS1, higher acquisition-related items, higher costs incurred for the ERP System Implementation program and incremental costs due to geopolitical conflicts.
- Adjusted EPS was
$0.73 , down 2.7 percent on a constant currency basis. The decrease in Adjusted EPS1 was driven by operating declines and higher interest and other expense, partially offset by lower income tax and favorable currency-related items.
2026 Outlook
For 2026, the company now expects at least 2 percent Organic Net Revenue growth, which reflects the strength of its year-to-date performance.

Reconciliation of GAAP and Non-GAAP Financial Measures
(Unaudited)
NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
In discussing its financial results and guidance, the company presents the following financial measures that are not in accordance with
Management uses non-GAAP financial measures internally to make operating and strategic decisions, including the preparation of our annual operating plan, evaluation of business performance and as a factor in determining incentive compensation. The company believes that non-GAAP financial measures, when used in connection with results reported in accordance with
DEFINITIONS OF THE COMPANY’S NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
The company’s primary non-GAAP financial measures and corresponding metrics, listed below, reflect how we evaluate our current and prior year operating results. As new events or circumstances arise, these definitions could change. When these definitions change, the company provides the updated definitions and presents the related non-GAAP historical results on a comparable basis. When items no longer impact the company’s current or future presentation of non-GAAP operating results, the company removes these items from its non-GAAP definitions.
“Organic Net Revenue” is defined as net revenues (the most comparable
“Adjusted Gross Profit” is defined as gross profit (the most comparable
“Adjusted Operating Income” and “Adjusted Segment Operating Income” are defined as operating income or segment operating income (the most comparable
“Adjusted EPS” is defined as diluted EPS attributable to
“Free Cash Flow” is defined as net cash provided by operating activities (the most comparable
See the attached schedules for supplemental financial data and corresponding reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures referred to above to the most comparable
SEGMENT OPERATING INCOME
The company uses segment operating income to evaluate segment performance and allocate resources. The company believes it is appropriate to disclose this measure to help investors analyze segment performance and trends. Segment operating income excludes certain mark-to-market impacts on commodity and foreign currency derivatives (which are primarily a component of cost of sales), general corporate expenses (which are a component of selling, general and administrative expenses), amortization of intangibles, gains and losses on divestitures and acquisition-related costs (which are a component of selling, general and administrative expenses) in all periods presented. The company excludes these items from segment operating income in order to provide better transparency of its segment operating results. Furthermore, the company centrally manages benefit plan non-service income and interest and other expense, net. The company does not present the items above by segment because they are excluded from the segment profitability measure that management reviews.
ITEMS IMPACTING COMPARABILITY OF FINANCIAL RESULTS
The company considers quantitative and qualitative factors in assessing whether to adjust for the impact of items that may be significant or that could affect an understanding of its ongoing financial and business performance and trends. The company identifies these based on how management views the company’s business; makes financial, operating and planning decisions; and evaluates the company’s ongoing performance. The below items are adjusted for in the company’s non-GAAP financial measures to better facilitate comparisons of its underlying performance across periods, as they are highly variable or unusual and of a size that may substantially impact its reported operations for a period. In addition, the company discloses the impact of currency-related items on its financial results to reflect results on a constant currency basis. See below for a description of adjustments to the company’s
Restructuring charges – Beginning in the fourth quarter of 2025, the company initiated new restructuring actions to reduce its cost structure and streamline its operations. The charges associated with those actions primarily relate to severance and other implementation costs. The company completed its previous Simplify to Grow Program in 2024. Following the completion of that earlier restructuring program, any adjustments to the liabilities for previously recorded charges, which were immaterial for each period presented, continue to be reflected within this item.
Mark-to-market impacts from derivatives – The company excludes unrealized gains and losses (mark-to-market impacts) from commodity and foreign currency derivative contracts economically hedging forecasted transactions from its non-GAAP earnings measures. The mark-to-market impacts of those derivatives are excluded until the related gains or losses are realized. Since the company purchases commodity and foreign currency derivative contracts to mitigate price volatility primarily for inventory requirements in future periods, the company makes this adjustment to remove the volatility of these future inventory purchases on current operating results to facilitate comparisons of its underlying operating performance across periods.
Acquisition-related items – Includes acquisition-related costs, acquisition integration costs, contingent consideration adjustments, inventory step-ups and gains from acquisitions. Acquisition-related costs include third-party advisor, investment banking and legal fees. Acquisition integration costs include costs related to the integration of operations from acquisitions. Contingent consideration adjustments include any changes made to contingent compensation liabilities for earn-outs related to acquisitions that do not relate to recurring employee compensation expense. Other acquisition-related items include incremental costs from inventory step-ups associated with acquired companies related to the fair market valuation of the acquired inventory and acquisition gains from the remeasurement of an existing noncontrolling investment to fair value when the company acquires the remaining equity shares of the investee.
Divestiture-related items – Includes operating results from divestitures, divestiture-related costs and gains or losses on divestitures. Divestitures may include sales of businesses, exits of major product lines upon completion of a sale or licensing agreement, or sales of equity method investments. Divestiture-related costs include costs incurred in relation to the preparation and completion of divestiture transactions (including one-time costs such as severance related to the elimination of stranded costs) as well as costs incurred associated with publicly announced processes to sell businesses.
Incremental costs due to geopolitical conflicts – Reflects impacts related to the ongoing conflicts in the
ERP System Implementation costs – The company’s ERP System Implementation program is being implemented by region in several phases with spending continuing over the next three years, with expected completion by year-end 2028. The operating expenses associated with the ERP System Implementation represent incremental transformational costs above the normal ongoing level of spending on information technology to support operations. These expenses include third-party consulting fees, direct labor costs associated with the program, accelerated depreciation of the company's existing SAP financial systems and various other expenses, all associated with the implementation of the company's information technology upgrades.
Remeasurement of net monetary position of highly inflationary countries – The company’s operations in
Pension participation changes – Consists of the charges incurred, primarily gains or losses from pension curtailments and settlements, including settlement losses from full or partial buyouts of the company's pension plans, as well as costs incurred when employee groups are withdrawn from multiemployer pension plans. The company excludes these charges from its non-GAAP results because those amounts do not reflect the company's ongoing pension obligations.
Initial impacts from enacted tax law changes – Initial impacts from enacted tax law changes include items such as the remeasurement of deferred tax balances and transition taxes from tax reforms. We exclude initial impacts from enacted tax law changes from our non-GAAP financial measures as they do not reflect our ongoing tax obligations under the enacted tax law.
Gains and losses on equity method investment transactions – The company excludes gains and losses from partial or full sales of equity method investments as well as impairments or other non-routine transactions related to those investments.
Currency-related items – Management also evaluates the operating performance of the company and its international subsidiaries on a constant currency basis. The company's non-GAAP measures presented on a constant currency basis exclude the effects of currency translation rate changes and extreme pricing increases in
- Currency translation rate changes – the company determines its constant currency operating results by dividing or multiplying, as appropriate, the current period local currency operating results by the currency exchange rates used to translate the company’s financial statements in the comparable prior year period to determine what the current-period
U.S . dollar operating results would have been if the currency exchange rates had not changed from the comparable prior year period. Therefore, currency translation rate changes are equal to current period local currency operating results multiplied by the change in average foreign currency exchange rates between the current fiscal period and the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year. - Extreme Pricing – during
December 2023 , the Argentinean peso significantly devalued. The peso's devaluation and potential resulting distortion on the company's non-GAAP Organic Net Revenue, Organic Net Revenue growth and other constant currency growth rate measures resulted in the company's decision to exclude the impact of pricing increases in excess of 26% year-over-year ("extreme pricing") inArgentina , from these measures beginning in the first quarter of 2024. The benchmark of 26% represents the minimum annual inflation rate for each year over a 3-year period which would result in a cumulative inflation rate in excess of 100%, the level at which an economy is considered hyperinflationary underU.S . GAAP.
OUTLOOK
The company’s Organic Net Revenue growth, Adjusted EPS growth on a constant currency basis, Adjusted Interest Expense, Adjusted Effective Tax Rate and Free Cash Flow for full-year 2026 are non-GAAP financial measures that exclude or otherwise adjust for items impacting comparability of financial results such as the impact of changes in currency exchange rates, intangible asset impairment charges, acquisitions and divestitures. Because GAAP financial measures on a forward-looking basis are not accessible and reconciling information is not available without unreasonable effort, the company has not provided that information with regard to the non-GAAP financial measures in the outlook. The company is not able to reconcile its projected Organic Net Revenue growth to its projected reported net revenue growth for the full-year 2026 because the company is unable to predict during this period the impacts from potential acquisitions or divestitures, as well as the impact of currency translation due to the unpredictability of future changes in currency exchange rates, which could be material as a significant portion of the company’s operations are outside the
