Grupo Nutresa successfully launched its first bond in the international market with a dual-tranche issuance of USD 2.0 trillion (2030 and 2035) at rates of 8.0% and 9.0%, respectively.

In Colombia, revenues grew 9.7% reaching COP 2.9 trillion, equivalent to 58.9% of consolidated sales. International sales reached COP 2.0 trillion, an increase of 18.5%, and represented 41.1% of the total sales. In U.S. dollars, these revenues reached 478.2 million, with a 10.9% growth.
Amid a volatile and price-rising environment for some of our key raw materials, the company achieved a gross profit of COP 1.9 trillion, representing a 7.4% increase. In terms of profitability and aligned with the implementation of initiatives aimed at improving the Group's operational efficiency and productivity, expenses grew at a lower rate than sales, which boosted the results in operating profit and EBITDA.

This 2025 reported net income reflected $2.7 million net income from continuing operations and a net loss of $0.7 million from Exchange Bank of Canada, the Company's Canadian subsidiary which was classified as discontinued operations effective the second quarter of 2025. These results include restructuring charges of $0.2 million, pre-tax, related to discontinued operations in Canada and certain one-time charges of $0.1 million, pre-tax. Excluding these items, the Group's adjusted net income1 increased by 18% compared to the prior year and adjusted diluted earnings per share1 ('EPS') was 24% higher than the prior year.

For further details, refer to the key performance and non-GAAP financial measures section below. Total revenue was 3% lower than the prior year due to a decline in consumer demand for foreign currency as travel activity tapered during the current quarter. Although revenue declined, the Company's net income for the second quarter rose compared to the same quarter last year, primarily due to the favorable impact of a weaker U.S. Dollar on the revaluation of foreign currency banknote holdings. The Group's capital position remained robust, and liquidity was strong with $81.2 million in total equity and $60.4 million in net working capital as of April 30, 2025 ($79.4 million and $55.9 million as of October 31, 2024, respectively). All reported amounts are based on the Group's condensed interim consolidated financial statements presented in compliance with International Accounting Standard 34 Interim Financial reporting, unless otherwise noted. On February 18, 2025, the Group announced its decision to cease the operations of its wholly owned subsidiary, Exchange Bank of Canada. This strategic decision and operational plan for restructuring were communicated to all staff of EBC on February 19, 2025. Following the cessation of operations, the Bank intends to apply to the Minister of Finance in Canada to discontinue from the Bank Act. The application to discontinue is expected to be made in the fourth quarter of 2025, with the actual discontinuance of the Bank being subject to receipt of all necessary regulatory approvals. Following the Group's decision, management has commenced implementation of the restructuring and planned discontinuance of the Bank. Management anticipates that certain operating expenses and personnel costs, that are currently shared with EBC, will be 100% borne by the continuing operations of CXI, subsequent to the exit of EBC from Canada, and the current annualized estimate of these costs is approximately $3 million after tax. In the second quarter of 2025, Exchange Bank of Canada was classified as a discontinued operation in the Group's condensed interim consolidated financial statements. On May 20, 2025, CXI upgraded its U.S. securities listing with the Company's shares commencing trading on the OTCQX Best Market under the symbol CURN. Randolph Pinna, CEO of the Group, stated, 'The second quarter showed continued growth in the payments business, while with the current political and economic uncertainties, international travel activity to and from the United States decreased banknote revenues. CXI's diversified business model in the United States allows for continued new client growth in the payments business complemented by successful multi-channel banknotes offerings for both our U.S. Financial Institutions in branch or online as well as the Direct-to-Consumer customer offerings through online, agent and physical branch locations. CXI's management team and I remain committed to executing CXI's strategic plan which is focused on revenue and earnings growth as well as the return on capital and creating value for our shareholders resulting from providing leading FX technology and transaction processing solutions'.

San Diego Unified to bring foreign educators to fill some teaching vacancies
SAN DIEGO (FOX 5/KUSI) — The San Diego Unified School District Board of Education recently announced a partnership with an international group to help fill open positions for the upcoming school year. The board signed an agreement with International Alliance Group (IAG) on Tuesday that is intended to conduct outreach for qualified educators and fill openings that are typically considered hard to staff, including in special education. San Diego City Council approves 2026 fiscal year budget 'Nationwide, we are dealing with the reality that there are not enough certified special educationteachers to meet the needs of our students,' said Dr. Fabi Bagula, the district's interim superintendent. According to the board, recruits will be brought in on a temporary work visa for up to three years to fill openings in the following areas: Mild/Moderate Support Needs, Extensive Support Needs and Bilingual, Cross-Cultural Language and Academic Development. They must be current educators in their home countries, undergo a comprehensive screening process and meet state and federal law for employment in California. Additionally, they must get teaching credentials in California. After they are recruited by IAG, San Diego Unified will conduct interviews with the candidates and finalize the hiring process for international educators to teach throughout the K-12 grade levels. According to the board, IAG works mostly with teachers from Latin American countries and Great Britain. The IAG partnership is the latest resource being used by the district in its hiring efforts. Other opportunities to fill teaching positions include the Teacher Academy, Paraeducator/Classified Employee Pathway, Early Childhood Education Teachers, Teacher Preparation programs, Visiting Teacher Pathway, and Teacher Intern program. 'Regardless of the grade or subject being taught, we know from our own teachers and students that unique backgrounds and life experiences provide enrichment opportunities for everyone involved,' Bagula stated. 'We're excited to welcome these passionate and dedicated educators as we continue our efforts to ensure every classroom is led by the most qualified teachers, this coming school year and into the future,' Bagula said.
