Molson Coors Beverage Company reports first-quarter 2026 results with net sales of $2,351.1 million, up 2.0% from a year earlier, as stronger pricing and premium mix more than offset lower volumes. Financial volume declined 2.9% to 14.964 million hectoliters, reflecting softer demand and share pressure in some brands and markets.
Net income attributable to Molson Coors rose to $151.3 million from $121.0 million, and diluted EPS increased to $0.80 from $0.59, helped by lower marketing, general and administrative expenses and favorable unrealized commodity hedge marks. The effective tax rate increased to 23% from 21%, mainly due to a smaller discrete tax benefit.
Operating cash flow was modestly positive at $2.5 million, improving from a $90.7 million outflow last year, as working capital and lower one-time payments offset higher capital spending of $231.7 million. The company returned cash via a quarterly dividend of $0.48 per share and repurchased 3.37 million Class B shares for $165.8 million. Net debt remained significant, with total long-term debt (including current portion) of $6,216.4 million and upcoming 2026 maturities the company is evaluating refinancing options for. After quarter-end, Molson Coors agreed to acquire Monaco Cocktails maker Atomic Brands for $275 million to expand its ready-to-drink portfolio.
Molson Coors reported stronger results for the first quarter of 2026, with net sales up 2.0% to $2.35 billion and U.S. GAAP net income attributable to the company rising 25.0% to $151.3 million. Diluted EPS increased to $0.80, while underlying diluted EPS grew 24.0% to $0.62, helped by lower MG&A and favorable pricing and mix, despite financial volume declining 2.9% and brand volume down 3.1%. Underlying income before income taxes increased 16.2% in constant currency to $147.9 million.
Cash from operations improved to a small inflow of $2.5 million, and underlying free cash flow was a use of $212.9 million, reflecting heavy capital spending and seasonal working capital. Net debt stood at $5.89 billion, a net debt to underlying EBITDA ratio of 2.51x. The company maintained its 2026 outlook, expecting net sales roughly flat versus 2025 but projecting double‑digit declines in underlying income before income taxes and underlying EPS.
Management also highlighted ongoing cost inflation, particularly from aluminum Midwest Premium surcharges, and higher expected MG&A later in 2026.
