Primo Brands Reports Second Quarter 2025 Results

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. Non-GAAP reconciliations are presented in the exhibits to this press release)

Net sales increased 31.6% to $1.7 billion compared to $1.3 billion primarily driven by net sales attributable to Primo Water due to the merger transaction, partially offset by a decrease in sales attributable to the sale of the production facility in Ontario, Canada in the first quarter of 2025.
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.

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.
Safe Harbor Statements
This press release contains forward-looking statements and forward-looking information within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 conveying management's expectations as to the future based on plans, estimates and projections at the time Primo Brands makes the statements. Forward-looking statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties and Primo Brands cautions you that several important factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any such forward-looking statement. You can identify forward-looking statements by words such as 'may,' 'will,' 'would,' 'should,' 'could,' 'expect,' 'aim,' 'anticipate,' 'believe,' 'estimate,' 'intend,' 'plan,' 'predict,' 'project,' 'seek,' 'potential,' 'opportunities,' and other similar expressions and the negatives of such expressions. However, not all forward-looking statements contain these words. The forward-looking statements contained in this press release include, but are not limited to, statements regarding future financial and operating trends and results (including Primo Brands' 2025 outlook), anticipated synergies and other benefits from the business combination of BlueTriton and Primo Water, the number of shares that may be repurchased under the share repurchase program, the impact of macroeconomic trends on Primo Brands' business, progress on resolving certain service issues and execution of the Company's strategy and Primo Brands' competitive position. The forward-looking statements are based on assumptions regarding management's current plans and estimates. Management believes these assumptions to be reasonable, but there is no assurance that they will prove to be accurate.
Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in this press release include, among others: our ability to manage our expanded operations following the business combination; we have no operating or financial history as a combined company; we face significant competition in the segment in which we operate; our success depends, in part, on our intellectual property; we may not be able to consummate acquisitions, or acquisitions may be difficult to integrate, and we may not realize the expected benefits; our business is dependent on our ability to maintain access to our water sources; our ability to respond successfully to consumer trends related to our products; the loss or reduction in sales to any significant customer; our packaging supplies and other costs are subject to price increases; the affiliates of One Rock Capital Partners, LLC own a significant amount of the voting power of the Company, and their interests may conflict with or differ from the interests of other stockholders; legislative and executive action risks; risks related to sustainability matters; costs to comply with developing laws and regulations, including those surrounding the production and use of plastics, as well as related litigation relating to plastics pollution; our products may not meet health and safety standards or could become contaminated, and we could be liable for injury, illness, or death caused by consumption of our products; and risks associated with our substantial indebtedness.
The foregoing list of factors is not exhaustive. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date hereof. Readers are urged to carefully review and consider the various disclosures, including but not limited to risk factors contained in Primo Brands' Annual Report on Form 10-K and its quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, as well as other filings with the securities commissions.

1 The tax effect for adjusted net income is based upon an analysis of the statutory tax treatment and the applicable tax rate for
the jurisdiction in which the pre-tax adjusting items incurred and for which realization of the resulting tax benefit (if any) is expected.
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.

High-Quality Global Expansion Built on System Strength

HONG KONG, Aug. 10, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — GAC hit a new milestone by entering Hong Kong's EV Top 3 for the first time in July, selling 303 units with 236 registrations. This achievement underscores the effective execution of GAC's 'One GAC 2.0' global strategy, particularly after launching the 'Hong Kong ACTION' in June, which drove breakthrough results within two months. As a 'lighthouse market' for Chinese auto exports, Hong Kong's breakthrough is highly symbolic. GAC sees Hong Kong as the 'bridgehead' of its globalization strategy, with its rise to the Top 3 marking both a sales milestone and recognition of its product, brand, and system strengths. Globally, GAC has built benchmark markets, creating a 'lighthouse effect' that drives growth in Southeast Asia's right-hand-drive regions. In June, it ranked fourth in Singapore's EV market and second among Chinese brands. In Thailand, GAC held third place in H1, with the AION UT setting a record of 1,000 deliveries in 39 days. GAC also excelled in the fuel vehicle market: from January to May, it ranked third overall in Kuwait, with the GS8 second in the mid-to-large SUV segment; in Lebanon, the EMZOOM led the A0-class SUV rankings; in Egypt, the EMPOW held a 25.6% segment share; and in Bolivia, GAC topped Chinese brand sales in July. GAC's deep localization strategy, 'In Local, For Local,' supports these achievements. In June, its Indonesian smart factory started production with a 50,000-unit capacity. At the same time, Thailand opened a flagship experience and battery service center, enabling dual-track 'sales + energy services.' From January to July 2025, GAC INTERNATIONAL's wholesale volume grew 45% year-on-year, and retail sales rose 64%, demonstrating the strength of its systematic global expansion. Feng Xingya, Chairman and President of GAC Group, emphasized the company's focus on four pillars: Quality, Technology, Service, and Ecosystem Globalization. Leveraging systematic competitiveness, GAC aims to build a high-quality global expansion path defined by 'winning through systems.' With successes in benchmark markets like Hong Kong, GAC is accelerating toward its goal of entering 100 countries and regions, and exporting 500,000 vehicles annually, leading the global automotive ecosystem and setting a new standard for Chinese automakers' globalization.

DDD Investors with Losses in Excess of $100K Have Opportunity to Lead 3D Systems Corporation Securities Fraud Lawsuit

NEW YORK, Aug. 9, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Why: Rosen Law Firm, a global investor rights law firm, reminds purchasers of securities of 3D Systems Corporation (NYSE: DDD) between August 13, 2024 and May 12, 2025, both dates inclusive (the 'Class Period'), of the important August 12, 2025 lead plaintiff deadline. So what: If you purchased 3D Systems securities during the Class Period you may be entitled to compensation without payment of any out of pocket fees or costs through a contingency fee arrangement. What to do next: To join the 3D Systems Corporation class action, go to or call Phillip Kim, Esq. toll-free at 866-767-3653 or email case@ for information on the class action. A class action lawsuit has already been filed. If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later than August 12, 2025. A lead plaintiff is a representative party acting on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation. Why Rosen Law: We encourage investors to select qualified counsel with a track record of success in leadership roles. Often, firms issuing notices do not have comparable experience, resources, or any meaningful peer recognition. Many of these firms do not actually litigate securities class actions, but are merely middlemen that refer clients or partner with law firms that actually litigate the cases. Be wise in selecting counsel. The Rosen Law Firm represents investors throughout the globe, concentrating its practice in securities class actions and shareholder derivative litigation. Rosen Law Firm achieved the largest ever securities class action settlement against a Chinese Company at the time. Rosen Law Firm was Ranked No. 1 by ISS Securities Class Action Services for number of securities class action settlements in 2017. The firm has been ranked in the top 4 each year since 2013 and has recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for investors. In 2019 alone the firm secured over $438 million for investors. In 2020, founding partner Laurence Rosen was named by law360 as a Titan of Plaintiffs' Bar. Many of the firm's attorneys have been recognized by Lawdragon and Super Lawyers. Details of the case: According to the lawsuit, during the Class Period, defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) 3D Systems had understated the impact of weakened customer spending on 3D Systems' business, while overstating its resilience in challenging industry conditions; (2) in addition, the updated milestone criteria in the United Partnership (a partnership with United Therapeutics Corporation) would negatively impact 3D Systems' Regenerative Medicine Program revenue; and (3) as a result, 3D Systems' public statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times. When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages. To join the 3D Systems class action, go to call Phillip Kim, Esq. toll-free at 866-767-3653 or email case@ for information on the class action. No Class Has Been Certified. Until a class is certified, you are not represented by counsel unless you retain one. You may select counsel of your choice. You may also remain an absent class member and do nothing at this point. An investor's ability to share in any potential future recovery is not dependent upon serving as lead plaintiff.

DDB Technology Redefines Innovation by Transforming Business Models, Not Just Products

NEW YORK, Aug. 9, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — At a time when the term 'innovation' is often confined to gadgets and features, DDB Technology, LLC is shifting the conversation. The New York–based firm, named Private Equity Company of the Year – United States by the Innovation & Excellence Awards in 2023 and again this year, is leading a new wave of innovation—one that begins at the business model level. Founded by Denise Drace-Brownell, JD, MPH, DDB Technology stands apart in its belief that innovation is not just about developing new technologies, but about restructuring how value is created, captured, and scaled. This philosophy underpins the company's work across its three core focus areas: technology, med-tech, and intellectual property commercialization. 'What I discovered over the course of my career is that we rarely think of business models themselves as vehicles for innovation,' said Drace-Brownell. 'That's a blind spot—because in today's world, the real competitive edge is often not in what you build, but in how you bring it to market, fund it, and sustain it. That's where we shine.' Drace-Brownell's multidisciplinary background—in law, marketing, science, and private equity—has shaped DDB Technology's distinctive approach. The company is best known for helping founders retain equity by unlocking the latent commercial value in their innovation, before they seek external funding. In doing so, DDB helps avoid premature dilution and gives innovators greater strategic control over their ventures. Pioneering Steps by DDB Technology The company pioneers advanced lens optics and specialised eyewear to improve visual performance amid rising digital screen use. These innovations address growing public health challenges like Digital Eye Strain and BV Disorder, conditions that significantly impact productivity and wellbeing. The company's engineering advances extend into AR/VR, industrial equipment, and digital interface design. In the climate sector, DDB Technology offers AI-powered environmental risk management solutions for well-capitalised B2B clients. Specifically, helping them identify vulnerabilities, mitigate risks, and convert climate challenges into competitive advantages – including supply chain differentiation and innovation leadership. In intellectual property, the firm empowers organisations to unlock hidden value in their intangible assets through its patented IP Pro platform; this enables clients to assess, prioritise, and capitalise on innovation to maximise revenue, financing, and long-term market share. This cross-domain innovation is supported by a flexible, equity-minded operating model. DDB Technology builds strategic partnerships while maintaining a lean in-house structure based out of Rockefeller Center, where even the office design reflects the company's ethos. Creative use of multi-functional spaces—including rooftop gardens for meetings—mirrors the company's core belief in unlocking untapped value from overlooked assets. This approach caught the attention of the judging panel at the 2023 and 2025 Innovation & Excellence Awards, who commended the firm's 'unrivalled expertise in markets and capital' and its ability to 'help business leaders uncover the real value of their organizations.' Drace-Brownell sees this award not as a capstone, but as a call to deepen the company's mission: 'Our clients come to us with powerful ideas, many of which have been overlooked or underleveraged. We help them turn those ideas into fully formed strategies—combining technical innovation with market positioning and structural ownership advantages.' In a competitive landscape where innovation is often reduced to buzzwords or app updates, DDB Technology is restoring depth and purpose to the term. The firm believes that the most transformative innovations are those that empower individuals and organizations to think differently about the systems they operate in—whether that's reimagining the optics industry, designing climate-resilient business models, or helping founders retain what they've built. For companies and creators looking for a partner in real innovation—not just execution—DDB Technology is redefining what's possible. About DDB Technology Founded in 2000, DDB Technology, LLC is a New York–based alternative private equity and innovation strategy firm focused on unlocking untapped value in overlooked markets. Specializing in technology, med-tech, and intellectual property strategy, the firm helps clients rethink how innovation is structured, funded, and delivered to the world.
