Mondelez International Q4 2025 earnings summary
Complete event summary combining all related documents: earnings call transcript, report, and slide presentation.Executive summary
Net revenues grew 5.8% year-over-year to $38.5 billion, with organic net revenue up 4.3% driven by higher pricing, partially offset by a 3.7% decline in volume/mix and significant commodity cost headwinds.
Achieved 5.1% organic net revenue growth in Q4 2025, driven by cocoa-led pricing, partially offset by volume/mix declines.
Chocolate strategy in 2025 focused on price increases and revenue growth management, with strong execution in key markets like India, Brazil, Australia, and South Africa, and mixed results in Europe due to higher elasticity in northern markets.
Adjustments for 2026 include targeted price points, increased brand investment, and innovation, especially with Biscoff collaboration, to restore consumption frequency and quantity.
Sudden cocoa price decline introduces short-term pressures and potential competitive reactions, but benefits are expected for 2027 as coverage for 2026 is already set at higher prices.
Financial highlights
Q4 2025 organic net revenue growth: +5.1% (price +9.9pp, vol/mix -4.8pp); FY 2025: +4.3% (price +8.0pp, vol/mix -3.7pp).
FY 2025 free cash flow reached $3.2B, with $4.9B returned to shareholders via dividends and share repurchases.
Gross profit decreased by $3.3 billion year-over-year, with gross margin dropping 1,070 basis points to 28.4% due to unfavorable mark-to-market impacts and higher raw material costs.
$500 million one-time inventory adjustment in Q1 2026 due to pipeline cost changes in cocoa.
Adjusted operating income grew 22.1% in Q4; adjusted EPS up 4.6%.
Outlook and guidance
FY 2026 organic net revenue growth expected to be flat to +2%, with adjusted EPS growth (constant FX) projected flat to +5%.
Free cash flow is projected at approximately $3 billion, with inflation expected to be high single digits as a percentage of COGS.
Guidance is prudent, reflecting short-term pressures in the U.S. and stable chocolate category in Europe post-price increases.
Flexibility built into guidance due to uncertain competitive responses to cocoa price drop.
Net price-cost relationship in chocolate for 2026 expected to be neutral to slightly positive, with real profit recovery anticipated in 2027 as cocoa resets lower.

excellent app, it gives me free access to company earnings calls and annual reports. I also love the convenience of calls being available offline so I can listen in whilst doing other things and even when internet or WiFi isn't available.
One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.
This is genuinely one of the cleanest and fastest finance apps out there to track the market.

Frequently asked questions
Leading Snack Producers
Mondelez International is an American multinational confectionery, food, and beverage conglomerate. Established in 2012 following a spin-off from Kraft Foods, Mondelez operates in over 150 countries and owns a plethora of iconic brands. With a vast portfolio of snacks and treats, the company is positioned as a global leader in the snack industry. The company is headquartered in Chicago, Illinois, and is listed on the Nasdaq.
The Spin-Off
Mondelez International's roots trace back to the foundation of many legacy companies, but its most immediate predecessor is Kraft Foods. The name "Mondelez" is derived from two words: "monde" from the Latin word for "world," and "delez" as an expression of "delicious." In 2012, in a strategic move to separate its global snack business from its North American grocery operations, Kraft Foods Inc. spun off its North American grocery business into a new company, Kraft Foods Group, and renamed the remaining global snacks business Mondelez International. This decision aimed to enable each entity to focus more keenly on their respective markets.
The Brands
Mondelez International is a global powerhouse in the snack industry, boasting a portfolio of iconic brands. Among its most recognizable brands are the chocolate producers Cadbury, LU, Milka, and Toblerone and the well-known Oreo cookie. Beyond these, Mondelez also owns Nabisco, the name behind classics like Ritz crackers and Chips Ahoy! cookies. Trident, one of the world's leading chewing gum brands, and Tang, a popular powdered beverage, further demonstrate the company's diverse portfolio. This is merely a snapshot of Mondelez’s brands, and their ownership of companies goes much further than what has been mentioned above.
A Global Market
Mondelez International has an expansive global presence, operating in over 150 countries. As one of the world's leading snack companies, its products can be found on shelves in nearly all corners of the world. This is however not something unique for the industry Mondelez is active in, and some of their main publicly traded competitors include names like Nestle, PepsiCo, Unilever, and other similar companies.
