Primo Brands Reports 2026 Third Quarter Results
TAMPA,
FL and STAMFORD, CT - November 5, 2026 - Primo Brands Corporation (NYSE: PRMB) (“Primo Brands” or the "Company") today announced its results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2026.
“Our third quarter results demonstrate solid top-line momentum and improving execution across the business,” said Eric Foss, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “This led to Direct Delivery growth ahead of our expectations, broad-based Retail sales growth, and category dollar share gains.
"We continue to make progress in a dynamic cost environment and remain focused on factors within our control to help mitigate macro-cost pressures while continuing to invest for long-term growth. Based on our year-to-date performance and proactive actions, we expect to deliver Net Sales at the midpoint of our previous guidance range and Adjusted EBITDA at the lower end of our previous guidance range for 2026.
“As a leader in the growing and resilient water category, we benefit from a strong brand portfolio and differentiated route-to-market capabilities. These advantages reinforce our confidence in our ability to deliver long-term profitable growth, generate strong cash flow, reduce net leverage, and create shareholder value. Our new $300 million share repurchase program provides another avenue to continue to return capital to shareholders, while maintaining focus on investing for long-term growth and reducing net leverage.”
THIRD QUARTER PERFORMANCE
| For the Three Months Ended |
|---|
| (USD $M except %, per share amounts or unless as otherwise noted) | September 30, 2026 | September 30, 2025 | Change |
| Net sales | $ 1,821.0 | $ 1,766.1 | 3.1 % |
| Net income from continuing operations | $ 124.5 | $ 40.5 | $ 84.0 |

| Adjusted EBITDA margin % | 22.6 % | 22.9 % | (30) bps |
- Net sales increased 3.1% to $1.82 billion compared to $1.77 billion primarily driven by an increase in sales attributable to our premium brands and regional spring water.
- Gross margin was 30.4% compared to 29.9%, primarily driven by growth in revenue and lower non-recurring integration-related costs incurred in the current quarter, partially offset by increased transportation related costs.
- SG&A expenses were $316.3 million compared to $343.0 million primarily driven by a decrease in marketing costs and a decrease in amortization primarily related to definite-lived intangibles amortization incurred in the prior year quarter not recurring in the current quarter.
- Net income from continuing operations and net income per diluted share were $124.5 million and $0.34 per diluted share, respectively, compared to net income from continuing operations and net income per diluted share of $40.5 million and $0.11, respectively.
- Adjusted EBITDA increased 1.6% to $411.0 million compared to $404.5 million and Adjusted EBITDA margin decreased 30 bps to 22.6%, compared to 22.9%.
THIRD QUARTER CASH FLOW & LIQUIDITY
- Net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations of $293.6 million, less $83.0 million of capital expenditures and additions to intangible assets, resulted in $210.6 million of free cash flow, or $274.2 million of Adjusted Free Cash Flow (adjusting for the items set forth on Exhibit 6), compared to net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations of $283.4 million and Adjusted Free Cash Flow of $311.1 million in the prior year quarter.
- Total debt, excluding unamortized debt costs and discounts, was $5.2 billion and unrestricted cash and cash equivalents totaled $477.2 million, each as of September 30, 2026, resulting in net debt of $4.8 billion and a net leverage ratio of 3.32x.
- Cash dividends were $43.5 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2026.
- Share repurchases under our repurchase plan, including brokerage commissions, made through open market transactions and discretionary repurchases were $22.1 million during the quarter ended September 30, 2026.

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 comparable net sales, which excludes the impact of the exited Eastern Canadian operations and exited US Office Coffee Services business. 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 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. Primo Brands utilizes net debt and net leverage ratio. Management uses net debt as an assessment of overall liquidity, financial flexibility, and leverage, and net leverage ratio as an indicator of the Company’s ability to meet its future financial obligations. 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. Management believes these measures are useful to demonstrate the Company’s ability to generate future cash flows from operations. See Exhibits 5 through 9 for definitions and reconciliations of non-GAAP metrics.
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. In addition, other companies may 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 Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Free Cash Flow guidance to GAAP net income or loss and cash flows from operations, respectively, because we do not provide guidance for such GAAP measures due to the uncertainty and potential variability of certain adjusting items, including stock-based compensation expense, acquired intangible assets and related amortization, income taxes, acquisition, integration and restructuring expenses, and unrealized (gain) loss on foreign exchange and commodity forwards. Because such items 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 results.

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.
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.
