Mondelez Q3 2024 $MDLZ (+1,41 %)

Financial performance: The company reported an increase in net sales of USD 175 million (1.9%) to USD 9,204 million in the third quarter of 2024. Organic net sales recorded a more significant increase of USD 474 million (5.4%) to USD 9,324 million. However, the operating result fell by USD 226 million (16.4%) to USD 1,153 million.

Balance sheet analysis: Total debt amounted to USD 19.8 billion as at September 30, 2024, a slight increase from USD 19.4 billion at the end of 2023. The debt-to-equity ratio was 0.42, which indicates a stable level of debt.

Income statement: Net earnings attributable to Mondelēz International decreased by USD 131 million (13.3%) to USD 853 million. Diluted earnings per share also decreased by USD 0.09 (12.5%) to USD 0.63.

Cash flow analysis: Net cash from operating activities increased to USD 3,451 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to USD 3,150 million for the same period in 2023. The company also paid dividends of USD 1,722 million in the first nine months of 2024, compared to USD 1,581 million in the same period in 2023.

Key ratios and profitability: The company's debt-to-equity ratio was 0.42 as of September 30, 2024, and the operating income margin decreased, reflecting the decline in operating income.

Segment analysis: The operating result varied across the different regions, with Europe and North America making significant contributions. Europe reported a segmental operating income of USD 605 million, while North America reported USD 918 million.

Competitive analysis: The company faces competition and pricing pressures that impact its financial performance. The divestment of the chewing gum business in developed markets also impacted net sales.

Forecasts and management comments: The company is focused on delivering profitable, long-term growth using key operating metrics such as organic net sales, adjusted operating profit and adjusted earnings per share. However, the outlook remains cautious due to macroeconomic uncertainties and commodity price pressures.

Risks and opportunities: Key risks include geopolitical uncertainties, commodity price volatility and currency exchange rate fluctuations. Opportunities lie in exploiting the regional operating scale and pursuing growth opportunities in key markets.

Summary and strategic implications: The company is navigating a challenging environment where macroeconomic pressures and competitive dynamics are impacting financial performance. Although sales growth is positive, profitability ratios have deteriorated. A strategic focus on cost control, price adjustments and regional growth opportunities will be critical to improve financial results. The company's ability to manage raw material costs and currency impacts will also be critical to maintaining profitability.

$MDLZ (+1,41 %) today with Q figures 🙋‍♂️🤗

What do you think the figures will be?

No fight without a chomp. 😋🍫

When are opportunity costs, opportunity costs?

$NOVO B (+0,73 %) -10% in the securities account 🥹

$ASML (-0,38 %) -11%

$MDLZ (+1,41 %) -2,4%

$COKE (+4,57 %) -5%

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I've been asking myself for a few hours now.

When are opportunity costs, opportunity costs? When does it make sense to hold a loser in the portfolio?

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The second question is "easier" to answer than the first (especially with hindsight 😜)

If, for example, a good company like $MCD (+2,19 %) is punished by the stock market due to bad bacteria in the dip (panic selling), in my opinion it is worth holding and possibly buying the dip.

If a solid company has short-term problems but nothing has deteriorated fundamentally or in terms of future prospects, it is worthwhile in my opinion.

In other words, it might be worth holding a share despite falling prices if it:

-has strong fundamentals solid financial ratios, low debt and sales growth.

-Positive long-term prospectspositive long-term prospects, for example companies with a clear competitive advantage, a moat, profiteers from trends, a well-filled order book

-
temporary market or sector problemstemporary market or sector problems, for example, when share price losses are caused more by external factors or sector-specific problems that affect the company itself less. Such factors often lead to overreactions.

- Confidence in the management/strategy, "Good morning Elon 🚀" Joking aside, good management with a good strategy can also overcome major crises.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Do one or more of the above points apply to my positions in the minus?

Yes. Will they therefore all recover and provide high returns? Maybe, but probably not. Fifty Fifty.
