CEO Statement

Dolf van den Brink, Chairman of the Executive Board / CEO, commented:
“In the first quarter, we delivered a 0.9% organic increase in net revenue. As anticipated, primarily due to calendar-related factors, organic beer volume declined by 2.1%. Despite volatile consumer and geopolitical trends, we are performing within the range of expectations.

Our EverGreen strategy continues to shape the business. We maintained the delivery of high quality growth, with premium beer volume growing by 1.8% and Heineken® volume up by 4.6%, outpacing overall volume growth. Vietnam, India, and Ethiopia delivered promising volume growth, benefitting from the strategic actions taken. The strength of our brand portfolio keeps improving, as shown across markets like Brazil and China. We are increasing our marketing and selling investments to further unlock the biggest opportunities. Furthermore, we are firmly on track to achieve our €0.4 billion gross savings target for 2025.

As the year progresses, we will be navigating a macroeconomic environment increasingly in flux, requiring us to stay agile and proactively adapt to changing circumstances. Considering the current conditions, we confirm our full year outlook to organically grow operating profit (beia) by 4% to 8%. This reflects our adaptability, whilst standing by our commitment to invest in growth and future-proofing our business.”
