Mondelez International had a strong financial year in 2024, with significant revenue growth and achievements in brand performance and sustainability. However, the company faces challenges due to cocoa cost inflation, impacting its profitability outlook for 2025. Despite these obstacles, Mondelez remains optimistic about long-term growth, supported by strong brand loyalty and strategic initiatives.

Company Guidance

During the Mondelez International Fourth Quarter 2024 and Full Year Earnings Conference Call, the company provided forward-looking guidance focusing on its strategic and financial metrics. Mondelez reported a 4.3% growth in organic net revenue and a 5.1% increase in adjusted gross profit dollars for the year, despite challenges such as cocoa cost inflation. They generated $3.5 billion in free cash flow and returned $4.7 billion to shareholders via buybacks and dividends. The company expects to continue executing its growth strategy with a projected top-line growth of approximately 5% in 2025, despite anticipating a 10% decline in adjusted EPS due to unprecedented cocoa costs. Mondelez aims to counteract these challenges with strong revenue growth management, cost discipline, and strategic investments in their brands, capabilities, and distribution channels. Additionally, Mondelez looks forward to continued performance improvements in its chocolate and biscuit categories, supported by reinvestments in innovation and digital snacking.
