2014 FOURTH - QUARTER AND FULL YEAR RESULTS

Mexico City February 25, 2015, Coca-Cola FEMSA, S.A.B. de C.V. (BMV: KOFL, NYSE: KOF) (“Coca-Cola FEMSA” or the “Company”), the largest franchise bottler in the world, announces results for the fourth quarter of 2014:

·          Comparable, currency neutral revenues grew 23.3% for the fourth quarter of 2014 and 24.7% for the full year.

·          Comparable operating cash flow margin expanded 80 basis points to 20.6% for the fourth quarter of 2014 and 170 basis points to 20.0% for the full year.

·          Reported Earnings per Share remained flat, reaching Ps. 1.48 in the fourth quarter of 2014. For the full year, reported Earnings per Share reached Ps. 5.09.

Given current operating and macroeconomic conditions in Venezuela, Coca-Cola FEMSA decided to use the previously denominated SICAD II exchange rate of 50 bolivars per US dollar to translate this operation’s fourth quarter and full year 2014 results into our reporting currency, the Mexican peso. Consequently, Venezuela’s contribution to our consolidated results reduced importantly and now represents 7% of volumes and 6% of both revenues and operative cash flow. Government authorities have clearly stated that the applicable exchange rate for the majority of the total imports of the country including food, medicines and other basic goods such as raw materials, will continue to be the 6.30 bolivars per U.S. dollar rate. Coca-Cola FEMSA continues to have access to this rate for raw material purchases. Coca-Cola FEMSA remains committed to the market and we will continue producing, selling and distributing the products that our Venezuelan consumers enjoy on a daily basis.

Message from the Chief Executive Officer

“In 2014, each of our operations performed positively, maximizing the full potential of our business and delivering comparable, currency neutral revenue growth of 25% and a margin expansion of 170 basis points at the consolidated level. In Mexico, our impeccable market execution and competitive portfolio strategy compensated for the effects of a large excise tax-related price increase designed to pass along this cost to the consumer. In Brazil, we advanced our affordable packaging strategy, enabling us to offer a very compelling value proposition—driving volume growth in a tough economic and consumer environment. Notably, on top of our successful integration of Spaipa and Fluminense, we started production at our new Itabirito plant and opened a new mega-distribution center in São Paulo, unlocking enormous potential to satisfy current and future demand, while positioning Coca-Cola FEMSA as a benchmark in the Brazilian Coca-Cola system. Together with our partner The Coca-Cola Company, we continued our successful acceleration plan in Colombia and expanded it to Central America, implementing a winning strategy in countries with low per capita consumption.  In Argentina and Venezuela, we operated and thrived in complex environments to deliver solid bottom-line results for the year.  In the Philippines, we demonstrated the effectiveness of our strategy as we continued to implement portfolio, route-to-market, and supply chain initiatives with positive results. Overall, our actions and our innovative and robust portfolio allowed us to generate a substantial amount of transactions with our consumers, successfully overcoming major challenges for the year, including beverage taxes in Mexico, a general economic slowdown in many countries, and a volatile currency environment across our operations.

 

Today, Coca-Cola FEMSA is evolving to capture the next wave of growth. We ignited an organizational transformation to create a leaner, more agile, and efficient company, while focusing on our core strategic capabilities through centers of excellence in the areas of commercial, supply chain, and IT innovation. Despite the challenges that we face going forward, we are confident that each of our operations will continue delivering solid results, enabling us to create sustained economic, social, and environmental value for all of our stakeholders,” said John Santa Maria Otazua, Chief Executive Officer of the Company.

Consolidated Results

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

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

The fourth quarter 2014 results of our Venezuelan operation were translated using the SICAD II alternate exchange rate of 50 bolivars per U.S. dollar. The results of 2013 were translated using an exchange rate of 6.30 bolivars per U.S. dollar.

 

Our reported total revenues decreased 8.5% to Ps. 39,567 million in the fourth quarter of 2014, driven by the negative translation effect resulting from using the SICAD II exchange rate to translate the results of our Venezuelan operation. Excluding the recently integrated territory in Brazil(1), total revenues reached Ps. 38,443 million in the fourth quarter. On a currency neutral basis and excluding the non-comparable effect of Spaipa in Brazil,(1) total revenues grew 23.3%, driven by average price per unit case growth across our territories and volume growth in Brazil, Venezuela, Colombia and Central America.

Reported total sales volume increased 1.8% to 897.4 million unit cases in the fourth quarter of 2014 as compared to the same period in 2013. Excluding the integration of Spaipa in Brazil (1), volumes decreased 0.4% to 878.6 million unit cases. On the same basis, our sparkling beverage portfolio remained flat, as growth of brand Coca-Cola in Brazil, Venezuela, Central America and Colombia, and increases in flavored sparkling beverages in Venezuela, Colombia, Argentina and Central America, were compensated by a volume contraction in Mexico, originated by the price increases that were implemented due to the excise tax in this country. Our bottled water portfolio grew 4.8% driven by Crystal in Brazil and Bonaqua and Aquarius in Argentina. Our bulk water portfolio decreased 5.6% and our still beverage category declined 2.1%. The total number of transactions reached close to 5.5 billion, in line with volume growth.

Our reported gross profit decreased 7.1% to Ps. 18,508 million in the fourth quarter of 2014. Reported gross margin expanded 70 basis points to reach 46.8% in the fourth quarter of 2014. This decline was driven by the negative translation effect resulting from using the SICAD II exchange rate to translate the results of our Venezuelan operation. In local currency, the benefit of lower sweetener and PET prices in most of our territories was partially offset by the depreciation of the average exchange rate of most of the currencies in our South America division and the Mexican peso(2) as applied to our U.S. dollar-denominated raw material costs.

Our reported operating income decreased 3.6% to Ps. 6,374 million in the fourth quarter of 2014 and our reported operating margin expanded 80 basis points to 16.1%. This decline was driven by the negative translation effect resulting from using the SICAD II exchange rate to translate the results of our Venezuelan operation. Excluding the integration of Spaipa in Brazil,(1) operating income reached Ps. 6,211 million and our operating margin expanded 90 basis points to 16.2%.

 

During the fourth quarter of 2014, the other operative expenses, net line recorded an expense of Ps. 248 million, mainly due to restructuring charges in our operations and operative currency fluctuation effects in most of our subsidiaries.

 

The share of the profits of associates and joint ventures line recorded a gain of Ps. 142 million in the fourth quarter of 2014, mainly due to equity method gains from our participation in Mexico’s and Brazil’s non-carbonated beverage joint-ventures and our stake in Coca-Cola Bottlers Philippines, Inc.

 

Reported operative cash flow decreased 5.3% to Ps. 8,099 million in the fourth quarter of 2014 as compared to the same period in 2013. This decline was driven by the negative translation effect resulting from using the SICAD II exchange rate to translate the results of our Venezuelan operation. Our reported operative cash flow margin expanded 70 basis points to reach 20.5% in the fourth quarter of 2014. Excluding the non-comparable effect of Spaipa in Brazil,(1) operative cash flow reached Ps. 7,916 million and operating cash flow margin expanded 80 basis points to 20.6%.

Our comprehensive financing result in the fourth quarter of 2014 recorded an expense of Ps. 2,069 million, as compared to an expense of Ps. 1,902 million in the same period of 2013. During the quarter we registered a foreign exchange loss as a result of the quarterly depreciation of the Mexican peso(2) as applied to our US dollar-denominated net debt position. 

During the fourth quarter of 2014, income tax, as a percentage of income before taxes, was 27.6% as compared to 32.8% in the same period of 2013. The lower effective tax rate registered during the fourth quarter of 2014 was mainly driven by a smaller contribution from our Venezuela subsidiary which carries a higher effective tax rate.

Our reported consolidated net controlling interest income remained flat at Ps. 3,075 million in the fourth quarter of 2014, driven by the negative translation effect resulting from using the SICAD II exchange rate to translate the results of our Venezuelan operation. Reported ernings per share (EPS) in the fourth quarter of 2014 were Ps. 1.48 (Ps. 14.83 per ADS) computed on the basis of 2,072.9 million shares (each ADS represents 10 local shares).

Balance Sheet

As of December 31, 2014, we had a cash balance of Ps. 12,958 million, including US$506 million denominated in U.S. dollars, a decrease of Ps. 2,348 million compared to December 31, 2013, This difference was mainly driven by the negative translation effect resulting from using the SICAD II exchange rate to translate the cash balance of our Venezuelan operation.

As of December 31, 2014, total short-term debt was Ps. 1,206 million and long-term debt was Ps. 64,821 million. Total debt increased by Ps. 5,566 million, compared to year end 2013 mainly due to the negative translation effect resulting from the depreciation of the end of period exchange rate of the Mexican peso(1) as applied to our U.S. dollar denominated debt position. Net debt increased Ps. 7,914 million compared to year end 2013, as a result of the lower cash position that resulted from the negative translation effect resulting from using the SICAD II exchange rate to translate the cash balance of our Venezuelan operation.

 

The weighted average cost of debt for the quarter was 7.90%. The following charts set forth the Company’s debt profile by currency and interest rate type and by maturity date as of December 31, 2014.

Mexico & Central America Division

(Mexico, Guatemala, Nicaragua, Costa Rica and Panama)

For reporting purposes, all corporate expenses, including the equity method recorded from our stake of the results of Coca-Cola Bottlers Philippines, Inc., are included in the results of the Mexico and Central America division.

Reported total revenues from our Mexico and Central America division decreased 1.4% to Ps. 18,078 million in the fourth quarter of 2014, as compared to the same period in 2013, driven by volume contraction in our Mexico operation as a result of the price increase implemented in the country due to the excise tax on sugary beverages. Our average price per unit case, which is presented net of taxes, grew 4.2%, reaching Ps. 38.08, mainly supported by a price adjustment implemented in Mexico during the first quarter of 2014. On a currency neutral basis, total revenues in the division decreased 1.9%.

 

Reported total sales volume decreased 5.2% to 473.5 million unit cases in the fourth quarter of 2014, as compared to the fourth quarter of 2013. The 6.0% volume contraction in Mexico was partially compensated by the 2.7% volume increase in Central America, which was mainly driven by growth in Nicaragua and Guatemala. Our sparkling beverage category decreased 5.5%. Our water portfolio, including bulk water, decreased 3.4% and our still beverage category decreased 8.9%. Transactions for the Mexico and Central America division outpaced volume performance and totaled 2.5 billion in the fourth quarter of 2014.

 

Our reported gross profit increased 0.6% to Ps. 9,137 million in the fourth quarter of 2014 as compared to the same period in 2013. Lower sweetener and PET prices in the division were partially offset by the depreciation of the average exchange rate of most of our division’s currencies(1) as applied to our U.S. dollar-denominated raw material costs. Reported gross margin reached 50.5% in the fourth quarter of 2014, an expansion of 100 basis points as compared to the same period of the previous year.

 

Reported operating income(2) increased 2.0% to Ps. 3,117 million in the fourth quarter of 2014. Our reported operating margin expanded 50 basis points to reach 17.2% in the fourth quarter of 2014. Our operating expenses in the division declined 0.9% as compared with the fourth quarter of 2013.

South America Division

(Colombia, Venezuela, Brazil and Argentina)

Volume and average price per unit case exclude beer results.

Reported total revenues decreased 13.7% to Ps. 21,489 million in the fourth quarter of 2014. This decline was driven by the negative translation effect resulting from using the SICAD II exchange rate to translate the results of our Venezuelan operation. Excluding beer, which accounted for Ps. 2,261 million during the quarter, revenues reached Ps. 19,228 million. Excluding the non-comparable effect of Spaipa in Brazil(1), total revenues reached Ps. 20,365 million in the fourth quarter. On a currency neutral basis and excluding the non-comparable effect of Spaipa in Brazil,(1) total revenues grew 41.7%, due to average price per unit case increases and volume growth in all of our operations.

 

Reported total sales volume in our South America division increased 11.0% to 423.9 million unit cases in the fourth quarter of 2014 as compared to the same period of 2013, as a result of the integration of Spaipa in Brazil(1) and volume growth in Brazil organic, Colombia, Venezuela and Argentina. Excluding the non-comparable effect of the acquisition in Brazil,(1) volume increased 6.0% to 405.1 million unit cases. On the same basis, our sparkling beverage category grew 6.5% driven by the Coca-Cola brand in Brazil, Venezuela and Colombia. The still beverage category grew 5.5% driven by the Jugos del Valle line of business in the division, including growth of del Valle Fresh in Colombia, and Powerade in Argentina. Our water category, including jug water, grew 3.7% driven by Crystal in Brazil and Aquarius and Bonaqua in Argentina. Volume performance outpaced transactions, which totaled closed to 3 billion in the fourth quarter of 2014.

 

Reported gross profit decreased 13.5% to reach Ps. 9,372 million in the fourth quarter of 2014. Reported gross margin expanded 10 basis points to 43.6% in the fourth quarter of 2014. In local currency, lower sweetener and PET prices in most of our territories were partially compensated by the depreciation of the average exchange rate of most of the currencies in our South America division(2) as applied to our U.S. dollar-denominated raw material costs.

 

Our reported operating income declined 8.3% to Ps. 3,258 million in the fourth quarter of 2014. This decline was driven by the negative translation effect resulting from using the SICAD II exchange rate to translate the results of our Venezuelan operation. In local currency, reported operating income grew as a result of the non-comparable effect of integration of Spaipa in Brazil,(1) and operating income growth in Brazil organic, Venezuela and Argentina. Our reported and organic operating margin expanded 90 basis points to 15.2% in the fourth quarter of 2014.

 

Reported operative cash flow decreased 12.8% to Ps. 3,844 million in the fourth quarter of 2014, driven by the negative translation effect resulting from using the SICAD II exchange rate to translate the results of our Venezuelan operation. Our reported operative cash flow margin expanded 20 basis points to 17.9% and our organic operating cash flow margin expanded 30 basis points to 18.0%.

Summary of full year results

The Company’s Mexico & Central America divisions’ operating results include the non-comparable effect of Grupo Yoli’s results for the months of January, 2014 through May, 2014.

The Company’s South America divisions’ operating results include the non-comparable effect of Fluminense’s results for the months of January, 2014 through August, 2014 and Spaipa’s results for the months of January, 2014 through October, 2014.

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.

The 2014 results of our Venezuelan operation were translated using the SICAD II alternate exchange rate of 50 bolivars per U.S. dollar. The results of 2013 were translated using an exchange rate of 6.30 bolivars per U.S. dollar.

 

Our reported consolidated total revenues decreased 5.6% to Ps. 147,298 million in 2014 driven by the negative translation effect resulting from using the SICAD II exchange rate to translate the results of our Venezuelan operation. Excluding the recently integrated territories in Brazil and Mexico,(1)(2) total revenues were Ps. 134,088. On a currency neutral basis and excluding the non-comparable effect of Fluminense and Spaipa in Brazil, and Yoli in Mexico,(1)(2) total revenues grew 24.7%, driven by average price per unit case growth in most operations and volume growth in Brazil, Colombia, Venezuela and Central America.

 

Reported total sales volume increased 6.6% to 3,417.3 million unit cases in 2014, as compared to 2013. Excluding the integration of Fluminense and Spaipa in Brazil, and Yoli in Mexico,(1)(2) volumes declined 0.7% to 3,182.8 million unit cases, mainly due to the volume contraction originated by the price increases that were implemented due to the excise tax in Mexico. On the same basis, the bottled water portfolio grew 5.0%, driven by Crystal in Brazil, Aquarius and Bonaqua in Argentina, Nevada in Venezuela and Manantial in Colombia. The still beverage category grew 1.6%, mainly driven by the performance of the Jugos del Valle line of business in Colombia, Venezuela and Brazil, and Powerade across most of our territories. Our sparkling beverage category declined 0.8% driven by the volume contraction in Mexico. These increases partially compensated for a 4.1% volume decline in our bulk water business. As a result of our portfolio initiatives to connect with consumers, total transactions outpaced volume performance totaling close to 21 billion across our operations in 2014.

 

Our reported gross profit decreased 6.2% to Ps. 68,382 million in 2014. This decline was driven by the previously mentioned negative translation effect. In local currency, lower sweetener and PET prices in most of our operations were offset by the depreciation of the average exchange rate of the Argentine peso,(3) the Brazilian real,(3) the Colombian peso(3) and the Mexican peso(3) as applied to our U.S. dollar-denominated raw material costs. Reported gross margin reached 46.4% in 2014.

 

Our reported operating income declined 3.3% to Ps. 20,743 million in 2014 driven by the previously mentioned negative translation effect. Our reported operating margin expanded 40 basis points to 14.1%. Excluding the integration of the new territories in Brazil and Mexico,(1)(2) operating income reached Ps. 19,535 million and expanded 90 basis points to reach an operating margin of 14.6%.

 

During 2014, the other operative expenses, net line recorded an expense of Ps. 548 million, mainly due to (i) an operative currency fluctuation effect in Venezuela recorded during the second quarter of 2014, (ii) operative currency fluctuation effects across the operations in the fourth quarter of 2014, (iii) restructuring charges mainly in our Mexican operation and (iv) the loss on sale of certain fixed assets.

 

The share of the profits of associates and joint ventures line recorded an expense of Ps. 241 million in 2014, mainly due to an equity method loss from our participation in Coca-Cola Bottlers Philippines, Inc., which was partially compensated by equity method gains from the non-carbonated joint-ventures in Brazil and Mexico.

 

Despite the negative translation effect resulting from using the SICAD II exchange rate to translate the results of our Venezuelan operation, reported operative cash flow declined only 0.7% to Ps. 28,385 million in 2014. Our reported operative cash flow margin expanded 100 basis points to 19.3%. Excluding the recently integrated territories in Brazil and Mexico,(1)(2) operating cash flow margin expanded 170 basis points to 20.0%.

 

During 2014, income tax, as a percentage of income before taxes, was 26.0% as compared to 32.7% in 2013. The lower effective tax rate registered during 2014 is mainly related to a one-time benefit resulting from the settlement of certain contingent tax liabilities under the tax amnesty program offered by the Brazilian tax authorities, which was registered during the third quarter of 2014.

 

Our reported consolidated net controlling interest income declined 8.7% to Ps. 10.542 million in 2014, driven by the negative translation effect resulting from using the SICAD II exchange rate to translate the results of our Venezuelan operation. Reported earnings per share (EPS) in 2014 were Ps. 5.09 (Ps. 50.86 per ADS) computed on the basis of 2,072.9 million shares (each ADS represents 10 local shares).

Philippines Operation

Volume in the fourth quarter of 2014 declined close to 2% as compared to the same period of 2013. Excluding powders, fourth quarter volume grew 6%, supported by our core sparkling beverage portfolio, which grew more than 12%, mainly driven by the expansion of our one-way single-serve packages. During 2014, we continued with the expansion of our route-to-market model, covering now more than 60% of the country’s volume with a team of more than 2,400 pre-sellers. During the year, volume in the Greater Manila Area, where the new model has been fully deployed, increased more than 16%. Also, during 2014, we increased our installed PET capacity by more than 220% with the installation of 4 dedicated PET lines, including two of the fastest production lines of sparkling beverages in the world.

 

Recent developments

·  Coca-Cola FEMSA has decided to use the previously denominated SICAD II exchange rate of 50 bolivars per US dollar to translate this operation’s fourth quarter and full year 2014 results into our reporting currency, the Mexican peso. We recognized in the total controlling interest line item in our consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2014, a reduction in equity of Ps. 11,453 million as a result of the valuation of our net investment in Venezuela using the SICAD II exchange rate of 50 bolivars per U.S. dollar. Consequently, as of December 31, 2014, our foreign direct investment in Venezuela was Ps. 3,808 million (at the SICAD II exchange rate of 50 bolivars per U.S. dollar).

·  As of February 12, 2015 the Venezuelan government announced changes to its exchange rate system, maintaining both the official 6.30 bolivars per US dollar rate and the SICAD rate at 12.00 bolivars per USD. Furthermore, the SICAD II rate was eliminated and an additional system called Sistema Marginal de Divisas (SIMADI) started operating as of February 12, 2015. As per the most recent auction held on February 18, 2015, the exchange rate of the SIMADI was 171.63 bolivars per U.S. dollar. Despite of these changes, the government authorities have clearly stated that the applicable exchange rate for the majority of the total imports of the country including food, medicines and other basic goods such as raw materials, will continue to be the 6.30 bolivars per U.S. dollar rate. Coca-Cola FEMSA continues to have access to this rate for raw material purchases.

·  On February 24, 2015, Coca-Cola FEMSA Board of Directors agreed to propose, for approval at the Annual Shareholders meeting to be held on March 12, 2015, an ordinary dividend of Ps. 6,405 million, representing Ps. 3.09 per each share (calculated on a basis of 2,072.9 million shares), to be paid in two installments during May and November of 2015.

·  On January 22, 2015 Coca-Cola FEMSA was granted with the 2015 Industry Mover award for its excellent performance in sustainability. This recognition stands out as it is the first time that a Mexican company participates as a member of The Sustainability Yearbook and also the first time that a Mexican corporate receives RobecoSAM’s Industry Mover Sustainability Award.

We believe this measure allows us to provide investors and other market participants with a better representation of the performance of our business. In preparing this measure, management has used its best judgment, estimates and assumptions in order to maintain comparability.

As of September 2013, we integrated Fluminense in our Brazilian operation.

As of November 2013, we integrated Spaipa in our Brazilian operation.
