Primo Brands Reports Second Quarter 2025 Results
Revises full year 2025 Net Sales, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted Free Cash Flow guidance Reaffirms cost synergy capture targets of $200 million in 2025; $300 million in 2026 Announces new share repurchase program of $250 million Declares quarterly dividend of 10 cents per share Reiterates post-2025 long-term growth algorithm of 3% to 5% organic Net Sales growth TAMPA, Fla. and STAMFORD, Conn., Aug. 7, 2025 /PRNewswire/ – Primo Brands Corporation (NYSE: PRMB) ('Primo Brands' or the 'Company') today announced its results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2025. 'Since merging eight months ago, we have taken multiple actions to build our new operational footprint, capture synergies and create a leading healthy hydration beverage company. Our team has accomplished significant milestones – streamlining routes, closing facilities and optimizing headcount with a majority of these integration activities implemented in the quarter,' said Robbert Rietbroek, Chief Executive Officer. 'Our Q2 results were impacted by previously reported tornado damage to our Hawkins, Texas facility, and service issues during the accelerated integration process. We have since successfully restarted the Hawkins facility and made significant progress toward improving the service issues. Importantly, we also continued executing against our growth strategy, including expanding total points of retail distribution, introducing cross-selling in our direct delivery network, and continuing our strong growth trends in our premium water business.' 'Due to these integration disruptions during the later part of Q2, and our reinvestment to correct the issues, we are revising full year 2025 Net Sales growth, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted Free Cash Flow guidance. We expect to deliver our targeted cost synergy opportunity of $200 million in 2025 and $300 million in 2026, and remain confident in our long-term growth algorithm,' continued Mr. Rietbroek. 'Despite these Q2 challenges, we continue to see strong consumer demand for healthy hydration, and are encouraged by our retail share growth in July. We believe we are taking the right steps to resolve the service issues, which we expect to be back to normal by the end of September. Our business model is resilient and is well positioned to deliver growth, improve margins, and generate strong cash flow going forward, which will enable us to opportunistically return value to shareholders with the new $250 million share repurchase program,' said Mr. Rietbroek. (Unless stated otherwise, all second quarter 2025 comparisons are relative to the second quarter of 2024; all information is in U.S. dollars. Pursuant to applicable requirements, these GAAP results are a comparison of the 2025 results for Primo Brands against the 2024 results for former Blue Triton Brands only.

Gross margin was 31.3% compared to 32.7%, primarily driven by gross profit attributable to Primo Water as a result of the merger transaction. SG&A expenses increased 47.7% to $378.6 million compared to $256.3 million, primarily as a result of the merger transaction. Net income from continuing operations and net income per diluted share were $30.5 million and $0.08 per diluted share, respectively, compared to net income from continuing operations and net income per diluted share of $54.5 million and $0.25, respectively. Adjusted EBITDA increased 42.1% to $366.7 million compared to $258.0 million and Adjusted EBITDA margin increased 160 bps to 21.2%, compared to 19.6%. Net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations of $155.0 million, less $71.6 million of capital expenditures and additions to intangible assets, resulted in $83.4 million of free cash flow, or $169.7 million of Adjusted Free Cash Flow (adjusting for the items set forth on Exhibit 5), compared to net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations of $102.5 million and Adjusted Free Cash Flow of $73.2 million in the prior year period. QUARTERLY DIVIDEND Primo Brands announced that its Board of Directors declared a dividend of $0.10 per share on the outstanding common stock of the Company, payable on September 4, 2025, in cash, to the holders of record of such common stock of the Company at the close of business on August 21, 2025. SHARE REPURCHASE PROGRAM Primo Brands today announced that its Board of Directors has authorized a share repurchase program of up to $250 million of the Company's outstanding Class A common stock, enabling the Company to opportunistically return value to stockholders. Primo Brands may purchase shares from time to time at the discretion of management through open market purchases, block trades, accelerated or other structured share repurchase programs, privately negotiated transactions, Rule 10b5-1 plans or other means. Open market repurchases will be structured to occur in accordance with applicable federal securities laws, including within the pricing and volume requirements of Rule 10b-18 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The manner, timing, pricing and amount of any transactions will be subject to the discretion of management and may be based upon market conditions, regulatory requirements and alternative opportunities that Primo Brands may have for the use or investment of its capital. The program does not obligate Primo Brands to acquire any particular amount of Class A common stock, and may be modified, suspended or terminated at any time at the discretion of its Board of Directors.

For more information, please visit Basis of Presentation As a result of the timing of the consummation of the business combination of Primo Water Corporation ('Primo Water') and Triton Water Parent, Inc. ('BlueTriton Brands'), to form Primo Brands Corporation on November 8, 2024, the Company's GAAP consolidated financial information presented herein includes BlueTriton Brands' results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, and Primo Brands' results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025. Non-GAAP Measures To supplement its reporting of financial measures determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ('GAAP'), Primo Brands utilizes certain non-GAAP financial measures. Primo Brands utilizes organic net sales growth (which excludes the impact of acquisitions). Primo Brands also utilizes Adjusted net income (loss), Adjusted net income (loss) per diluted share, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin to separate the impact of certain items as listed in the below reconciliations from the underlying business. Because Primo Brands uses these adjusted financial results in the management of its business, management believes this supplemental information is useful to investors for their independent evaluation and understanding of Primo Brands' underlying business performance and the performance of its management. Adjusted EBITDA margin is defined as Adjusted EBITDA divided by Net Sales. Additionally, Primo Brands supplements its reporting of net cash provided by (used in) operating activities from continuing operations determined in accordance with GAAP by excluding additions to property, plant and equipment and additions to intangible assets to present Free Cash Flow, and by excluding the additional items identified on the exhibits hereto to present Adjusted Free Cash Flow, which management believes provides useful information to investors in assessing our performance, comparing Primo Brands' performance to the performance of the Company's peer group and assessing the Company's ability to service debt and finance strategic opportunities, which include investing in Primo Brands' business, making strategic acquisitions, paying dividends, and strengthening the balance sheet. The non-GAAP financial measures described above are in addition to, and not meant to be considered superior to, or a substitute for, Primo Brands' financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all of the amounts associated with the Company's results of operations as determined in accordance with GAAP. Also, other companies might calculate these measures differently. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP measures included in this press release and the accompanying tables. In addition, the non-GAAP financial measures included in this earnings announcement reflect management's judgment of particular items, and may be different from, and therefore may not be comparable to, similarly titled measures reported by other companies. We have not reconciled our long-term organic net sales growth guidance to GAAP net sales, because we do not provide guidance for such GAAP measures due to the uncertainty and potential variability of net sales from acquisitions, which is a reconciling item between organic net sales growth and net sales growth. Because this item cannot be provided without unreasonable efforts, we are unable to provide a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measure guidance to the corresponding GAAP measure. However, such items could have a significant impact on our future GAAP net income or loss and GAAP net income or loss margin.

A reduced or 0% tax rate is applied to jurisdictions where we do not expect to realize a tax benefit due to a history of operating losses or other factors resulting in a valuation allowance related to deferred tax assets. 2 For the periods presented, the non-GAAP diluted weighted average shares of common stock outstanding equaled the reported diluted weighted average shares of common stock outstanding.

Firefly Aerospace set to debut after largest US space IPO of the year
(Reuters) -Firefly Aerospace will begin trading on the Nasdaq on Thursday after raising $868.3 million in the largest U.S. listing this year by a space tech company. Firefly — which became the second private enterprise to achieve a lunar landing five months ago — priced the IPO at $45 per share, above an already upsized range, securing a valuation of $6.32 billion. That is ahead of both Trive Capital-backed Karman Holdings and Voyager Technologies, which went public earlier this year. U.S. initial public offerings have picked up pace after tariff-driven volatility hampered listings in April, reigniting a long-awaited recovery of first-time share sales. "I think we will continue to see strong debuts for large-cap IPOs for the remainder of the year," said Ross Carmel, partner at law firm Sichenzia Ross Ference Carmel. "In the event the Federal Reserve decides to cut interest rates, I think we can see this trickle down to both mid-cap and small-cap IPOs as well." Formed in 2017, Firefly specializes in cost-effective launch vehicles and spacecraft, including lunar landers, to provide space launch and mission services. While Houston-based Intuitive Machines was the first private firm to reach the moon last year, its Odysseus lander made a lopsided touchdown. Firefly's Blue Ghost landed safely on the moon in March. "Firefly has already demonstrated responsive launch capabilities and delivered a lunar payload-proof points that matter to the Space Force and NASA," said Ali Javaheri, emerging technology analyst at PitchBook. The company had a backlog of roughly $1.1 billion and more than 30 planned launches under contract as of March 31. "Investors will likely focus on backlog growth, gross margin trends as production scales, and Firefly's cash runway post-IPO," Javaheri said. The company, however, expects to incur net losses for the next several years, according to filings. SPACE SCRUTINY Rising geopolitical tensions and deteriorating international relations have put a spotlight on space and defense contractors, as U.S. President Donald Trump aims to bolster military and civil space programs with the efficiencies of for-profit companies. Elon Musk's SpaceX — which has about $22 billion in government contracts — has grown critical to the global satellite network, potentially managing a crucial element of the "Golden Dome" missile shield planned by Trump. Musk's latest tensions with Trump, however, have prompted officials to solicit bids from other rocket and tech manufacturers, with some citing national security concerns around concentrated dependency. In early 2022, pressure from certain U.S. government bodies led to Ukrainian entrepreneur Max Polyakov divesting his ownership in Firefly to AE Industrial Partners, which currently owns more than 40% of the Texas-based company. Since then, Firefly has attracted a robust mix of investors. "Northrop Grumman's involvement signals alignment with national security priorities, while Mitsui's presence opens pathways to Asia and helps shore up supply-chain resilience," PitchBook's Javaheri said. U.S. defense contractor Northrop Grumman, which invested $50 million into Firefly in May, is one of the three suppliers of solid rocket motors to the U.S. Goldman Sachs, J.P. Morgan, Jefferies and Wells Fargo Securities are the lead underwriters for the IPO. (Reporting by Ateev Bhandari and Arasu Kannagi Basil in Bengaluru; Editing by Shilpi Majumdar)
