José Antonio Fernandez Carbajal, FEMSA’s Chief
Executive Officer, commented:
“Our results for the
fourth quarter were strong, but less uniform across business units
than what we saw earlier in the year. Revenues were robust, even as
we cycled tough comparison bases at certain business units.
However, on the expense side we felt more directly the cumulative
effect from increased labor costs in Mexico, as well as some
business- and country-specific situations that impacted our
profitability.
“Proximity Americas
increased revenues by more than 14%, driven by high-single-digit
comparable sales at OXXO and reflecting an accelerated store
expansion, while we continued to see healthy growth trends in South
America and across formats. In Europe, Valora achieved a strong
operating result with substantial growth in a challenging macro
environment. FEMSA Health delivered stable revenues, but a
deteriorating dynamic in the institutional business in Colombia
hurt our profitability. For its part, Coca-Cola FEMSA again
delivered strong results across its income statement, while
Digital@FEMSA continued to add users at a brisk pace.
“On the strategic
front, we recently provided incremental information regarding our
capital allocation framework, and we stand ready to begin executing
the plan in order to reach our stated leverage objective within two
to three years.
“In short, we wrapped
up a unique year that was transformational on the strategic front,
with remarkable results resulting from our FEMSA Forward strategy.
Today, we are a leaner, more focused company, ideally positioned to
pursue and capture the most compelling opportunity set we have ever
had before us. Once again, I thank the entire FEMSA team for their
excellent work, as we get ready to write another exciting
chapter.”
