MEXICO CITY, July 22, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Genomma Lab Internacional, S.A.B. de C.V. (BMV: LAB B) ("Genomma" or "the Company"), today announced its results for the second quarter 2026. All figures included herein are stated in nominal Mexican pesos and have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), unless otherwise noted.

Comments from Genomma's CEO, Marco Sparvieri

"Q2 2026 marked a sequential improvement in Mexico as our initiatives began to gain traction. Sell-in declined 4.4% and sell-out declined 4.0%, reflecting continued market softness while Genomma's market share increased or remained stable across all business units despite broad category contraction. Encouragingly, monitored retailer sell-out turned positive in the first two weeks of July, driven by the successful rollout of our innovation pipeline, particularly Suerox Mineral.

On a consolidated basis, like-for-like sales declined 3.6%, reflecting the ongoing recovery in Mexico and continued softness in the US Hispanic market, partially offset by 3.9% growth in Latin America. We expanded gross margin by 106 basis points to 64.6%, as productivity gains more than offset increased promotional investment. EBITDA margin of 21.8% came in line with our expectations, and net income grew 5.5%.

We remain confident in a gradual recovery through the second half of 2026 as we continue to execute our growth initiatives, protect market share, and maintain disciplined productivity to mitigate margin pressures. Our fundamentals remain solid, and we believe Genomma Lab is well positioned as we navigate the current consumption cycle."

Q2 2026 Financial Summary

The following table provides a summary of the Company's Income Statement, in millions of Mexican pesos.

Net Sales: Like-for-like sales declined -3.6%, reflecting the ongoing recovery in Mexico and continued disruption in the US Hispanic retail market, partially offset by a +3.9% increase in like-for-like sales in Latin America, driven by strong performance in Central America and the Andean region. Net sales decreased -6.0%, reflecting the decline in like-for-like sales and the negative foreign exchange impact from the Mexican peso's 10.8% appreciation during the quarter.

Gross profit: Reached 64.6% margin, representing a +106 basis-point increase, as productivity gains more than offset higher promotional investment including the fully-absorbed impact of Mexico's new tax on non-caloric sweetened beverages.

EBITDA: Reached 21.8% margin, representing a -200 basis-point decline, primarily reflecting operational deleverage. SG&A expenses remained flat, as productivity savings significantly offset higher operating expenses and inflation.

Net Income: Increased +5.5%, driven by lower financial expenses and reduced foreign exchange losses.
