Description: BUD Anheuser Busch Inbev September 25, 2025
Anheuser-Busch InBev (NYSE:BUD) is the world’s largest brewer, operating a vertically integrated model that produces, distributes, exports, markets, and sells beer across North America, Latin America, Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and Asia-Pacific. Its portfolio spans roughly 500 brands, anchored by global icons such as Budweiser, Corona Extra, Stella Artois, and Michelob Ultra, while also covering regional favorites (e.g., Brahma, Skol, Jupiler) and an expanding non-beer segment that includes ready-to-drink spirits (Cutwater) and functional beverages (NÜTRL).
From a financial standpoint, AB InBev reported FY 2023 revenue of approximately $58.5 billion, delivering a net income of $5.9 billion and diluted EPS of $5.78. The company generated free cash flow of about $7 billion, but carries a leveraged balance sheet with net debt near $95 billion, yielding a debt-to-EBITDA ratio of roughly 3.5×. Volume growth in mature markets has been flat, while price-realized growth-driven by premiumization and higher-margin product mix-has been the primary earnings engine.
Key economic and sector drivers shaping AB InBev’s outlook include (1) commodity cost volatility, especially barley and aluminum, which directly affect brewhouse margins; (2) shifting consumer preferences toward low-calorie, low-alcohol, and ready-to-drink formats, prompting the company’s $2 billion-plus investment in its non-beer portfolio; and (3) exchange-rate exposure, with a strong U.S. dollar compressing earnings from emerging-market sales that account for roughly 30 % of total volume.
