PITTSBURGH & CHICAGO - Aug. 2, 2023 - The Kraft Heinz Company (Nasdaq: KHC) (“Kraft Heinz” or the “Company”) today reported financial results for the second quarter of 2023.
“We delivered strong second quarter results, growing net sales, profits and profitability. This is consistent with our strategy to accelerate profitable growth” said Kraft Heinz CEO and Chair of the Board Miguel Patricio. “We grew across each of our three pillars: Foodservice, Emerging Markets, and U.S. Retail Grow Platforms. Importantly, we grew profits while also investing in marketing, research & development, and technology, which we funded through gross efficiencies.”
“While we did face headwinds in the second quarter, particularly within U.S. market share performance, the action plans we laid out in the first quarter resulted in share trend improvement each month. We expect these action plans, along with continued strong execution from our teams, to drive momentum through the second half of the year. Overall, our results give me confidence in the direction we are headed. As a result, we are reiterating our full-year outlook.”

Q2 2023 Financial Summary
Net sales increased 2.6 percent versus the year-ago period to $6.7 billion, including a negative 1.2 percentage point impact from foreign currency and a negative 0.2 percentage point impact from acquisitions and divestitures. Organic Net Sales(1) increased 4.0 percent versus the prior year period. Price increased 11.0 percentage points versus the prior year period, with increases in both reportable segments that were primarily driven by list price increases. Volume/mix declined 7.0 percentage points versus the prior year period, with declines in both reportable segments that were primarily driven by elasticity impacts from pricing actions.
2


Net income/(loss) increased 277.0 percent versus the year-ago period to $998 million, primarily driven by lapping non-cash impairment losses in the prior year period, higher Adjusted EBITDA versus the prior year period, and unrealized gains on commodity hedges in the current year period compared to unrealized losses on commodity hedges in the prior year period. These factors more than offset unfavorable changes in other expense/(income). Adjusted EBITDA(1) increased 6.0 percent versus the year-ago period to $1.6 billion, primarily driven by higher pricing and efficiency gains. These factors more than offset higher supply chain costs (reflecting inflationary pressure in procurement and manufacturing costs), unfavorable volume/mix, investments in marketing, people, technology, and research & development, and an unfavorable impact from foreign currency (1.3 pp).
Diluted EPS was $0.81, up 285.7 percent versus the prior year period, primarily driven by the net income/(loss) factors discussed above. Adjusted EPS(1) was $0.79, up 12.9 percent versus the prior year period, primarily driven by higher Adjusted EBITDA, lower taxes on adjusted earnings, and lower interest expense. These factors more than offset unfavorable changes in other expense/(income).
Year-to-date net cash provided by operating activities was $1.6 billion, up 101.2 percent versus the year-ago period. This was driven by lower cash outflows for inventories primarily related to stock rebuilding in the prior year, lower cash outflows for tax payments driven by taxes paid in 2022 related to the sale of certain assets in our global cheese business and the licensing of certain trademarks, and higher Adjusted EBITDA. These impacts were partially offset by unfavorable changes in accounts payable, due in part to lower inventory purchase volume in the current period compared to the prior year period. Year-to date Free Cash Flow(1) was $1.1 billion, up 205.8 percent versus the prior year period, driven by the same net cash provided by operating activities as discussed above. This more than offset an increase in capital expenditures in the current year.
Outlook
For fiscal year 2023, the Company expects:
Organic Net Sales(2) growth of 4 to 6 percent versus the prior year.
Constant Currency Adjusted EBITDA(1)(2) growth of 4 to 6 percent versus the prior year, or 6 to 8 percent when excluding the impact from lapping a 53rd week in 2022. Adjusted Gross Profit Margin(1)(2) expansion is expected to contribute to Constant Currency Adjusted EBITDA growth. The Company now expects Adjusted Gross Profit Margin expansion of 150 to 200 basis points versus the prior year, as compared to the Company's previous expectation of 125 to 175 basis points. The current expectation for Adjusted Gross Profit Margin now reflects mid-to-high single-digit inflation for the full year and low-to-mid single-digit inflation in the second half of the year, with pricing and efficiencies continuing to contribute to Adjusted Gross Profit Margin recovery.
Adjusted EPS(2) to be in the range of $2.83 to $2.91, which includes a negative impact of approximately $0.04 from expected unfavorable changes in non-cash pension and post-retirement benefits and a currency headwind of approximately $0.02 at current foreign exchange rates. The expected 2023 year-over-year Adjusted EPS change reflects a negative $0.06 impact from lapping a 53rd week in 2022. Additionally, the Company continues to expect an effective tax rate on Adjusted EPS to be in the range of 19 to 21 percent.

End Notes
(1)Organic Net Sales, Adjusted EBITDA, Constant Currency Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Gross Profit Margin, Adjusted EPS, and Free Cash Flow are non-GAAP financial measures. Please see discussion of non-GAAP financial measures and the reconciliations at the end of this press release for more information.
(2)Guidance for Organic Net Sales, Constant Currency Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Gross Profit Margin, and Adjusted EPS is provided on a non-GAAP basis only because certain information necessary to calculate the most comparable GAAP measure is unavailable due to the uncertainty and inherent difficulty of predicting the occurrence and the future financial statement impact of such items impacting comparability, including, but not limited to, the impact of currency, acquisitions and divestitures, divestiture-related license income, restructuring activities, deal costs, unrealized losses/(gains) on commodity hedges, impairment losses, certain non-ordinary course legal and regulatory matters, and equity award compensation expense, among other items. Therefore, as a result of the uncertainty and variability of the nature and amount of future adjustments, which could be significant, the Company is unable to provide a reconciliation of these measures without unreasonable effort.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The non-GAAP financial measures provided in this press release should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative for, results prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).
To supplement the financial information provided, the Company has presented Organic Net Sales, Adjusted EBITDA, Constant Currency Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted Gross Profit Margin, Adjusted Net Income/(Loss), Adjusted EPS, and Free Cash Flow, which are considered non-GAAP financial measures. The non-GAAP financial measures presented may differ from similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures presented by other companies, and other companies may not define these non-GAAP financial measures in the same way. These measures are not substitutes for their comparable GAAP financial measures, such as net sales, net income/(loss), gross profit, diluted earnings per share (“EPS”), net cash provided by/(used for) operating activities, or other measures prescribed by GAAP, and there are limitations to using non-GAAP financial measures.
Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures to assist in comparing the Company’s performance on a consistent basis for purposes of business decision making by removing the impact of certain items that management believes do not directly reflect the Company’s underlying operations. The Company believes:
Organic Net Sales, Adjusted EBITDA, Constant Currency Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted Gross Profit Margin, Adjusted Net Income/(Loss), and Adjusted EPS provide important comparability of underlying operating results, allowing investors and management to assess the Company’s operating performance on a consistent basis; and
Free Cash Flow provides a measure of the Company’s core operating performance, the cash-generating capabilities of the Company’s business operations, and is one factor used in determining the amount of cash available for debt repayments, dividends, acquisitions, share repurchases, and other corporate purposes.
Management believes that presenting the Company’s non-GAAP financial measures is useful to investors because it (i) provides investors with meaningful supplemental information regarding financial performance by excluding certain items, (ii) permits investors to view performance using the same tools that management uses to budget, make operating and strategic decisions, and evaluate historical performance, and (iii) otherwise provides supplemental information that may be useful to investors in evaluating the Company’s results. The Company believes that the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures, when considered together with the corresponding GAAP financial measures and the reconciliations to those measures, provides investors with additional understanding of the factors and trends affecting the Company’s business than could be obtained absent these disclosures.
Definitions
Organic Net Sales is defined as net sales excluding, when they occur, the impact of currency, acquisitions and divestitures, and a 53rd week of shipments. The Company calculates the impact of currency on net sales by holding exchange rates constant at the previous year's exchange rate, with the exception of highly inflationary subsidiaries, for which the Company calculates the previous year's results using the current year's exchange rate.
7


Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income/(loss) from continuing operations before interest expense, other expense/(income), provision for/(benefit from) income taxes, and depreciation and amortization (excluding restructuring activities); in addition to these adjustments, the Company excludes, when they occur, the impacts of divestiture-related license income, restructuring activities, deal costs, unrealized losses/(gains) on commodity hedges, impairment losses, certain non-ordinary course legal and regulatory matters, and equity award compensation expense (excluding restructuring activities). The Company also presents Adjusted EBITDA on a constant currency basis (Constant Currency Adjusted EBITDA). The Company calculates the impact of currency on Adjusted EBITDA by holding exchange rates constant at the previous year's exchange rate, with the exception of highly inflationary subsidiaries, for which it calculates the previous year's results using the current year's exchange rate.
Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted Net Income/(Loss), and Adjusted EPS are defined as gross profit, net income/(loss), and diluted earnings per share, respectively, excluding, when they occur, the impacts of restructuring activities, deal costs, unrealized losses/(gains) on commodity hedges, impairment losses, certain non-ordinary course legal and regulatory matters, losses/(gains) on the sale of a business, other losses/(gains) related to acquisitions and divestitures (e.g., tax and hedging impacts), nonmonetary currency devaluation (e.g., remeasurement gains and losses), debt prepayment and extinguishment (benefit)/costs, and certain significant discrete income tax items (e.g., U.S. and non-U.S. tax reform), and including when they occur, adjustments to reflect preferred stock dividend payments on an accrual basis. Adjusted Gross Profit Margin is defined as Adjusted Gross Profit divided by net sales.
Free Cash Flow is defined as net cash provided by/(used for) operating activities less capital expenditures. The use of this non-GAAP measure does not imply or represent the residual cash flow for discretionary expenditures since the Company has certain non-discretionary obligations such as debt service that are not deducted from the measure.
