PRESS RELEASE |
COMMENTS FROM THE CEO |
OUR FOCUS DURING THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC: To face this challenging scenario, since March we have been executing a regional plan with three priorities: (i) people, (ii) operation continuity, and (iii) financial health. First, to ensure the health and safety of all our workers and the people we interact with, we have operated with strict sanitary protocols in all our plants and distribution centers. Also, we have reinforced our commitment to support society through initiatives such as: the production and donation of hand-sanitizer, disinfectant alcohol, facial shields to protect our clients, and products to support several community organizations; also, the sanitizing of streets in communities near to our wineries, the support to bars and restaurants through the campaign “Yo Invito”, and the repatriation of Colombian and Chilean citizens, among other initiatives. Second, we have maintained the operation of our plants and distribution, together with the activities of procurement, sales, marketing and administration. At the same time, we have kept working with our suppliers and supporting our clients. Third, in spite of our strong financial position, reflected in a low net financial debt, we recently issued local bonds for CLP 186,527 million, with an average real interest rate of 0.88%, to ensure our financial health in this uncertain scenario. Finally, we would like to thank the strong commitment and dedication of all CCU employees, which made all of the above possible.
CONSOLIDATED PERFORMANCE DURING THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC: EBITDA fell 62.1% to CLP 19,654 million and EBITDA margin dropped from 13.7% to 6.2%. Net income recorded a loss of CLP 3,257 million from a gain of CLP 18,040 million in 2019. With respect to this quarter, we would like to highlight: (i) the strengthening of our market position, (ii) the deterioration of margins, and (iii) the control of our expenses. As for our market position, in spite of a decrease of 12.0% in consolidated volumes, we were able to maintain or gain market share in our main categories in Chile based on continuous improvement in brand equity and sales execution. The lower volumes were mainly driven by a deep contraction in non-alcoholic in Chile and in the International Business Operating segment, being the sharpest fall in April, and since then we have seen an upward trend. In Chile, this quarter, total alcohol per capita consumption decreased (internal estimates), due to a sharp fall in spirits, whereas beer and domestic wine increased. Regarding the margins, Gross margin dropped from 47.1% to 42.3%, mainly explained by negative external effects from the devaluation of the CLP and ARS against the USD, which depreciated 20.4%3 and 65.1%4, respectively, affecting our USD-denominated costs, and lower average prices in CLP, mainly due to the absence of price increases in Argentina, not allowing us to offset the impact in costs of the high inflation and devaluation in that country. It is important to mention that it takes time to compensate a sharp devaluation of the currencies through pricing and efficiencies. Finally, in respect of expenses, MSD&A expenses decreased 7.9%, mainly due to lower distribution and marketing expenses.
OPERATING SEGMENTS AND JV PERFORMANCE DURING THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC: (i) In the Chile Operating segment, volumes dropped 13.4%, while average prices rose by 0.7%. EBITDA reached CLP 24,537 million, contracting 46.7%, and EBITDA margin deteriorated from 19.6% to 12.0%. This performance was largely associated with lockdown measures, which deeply impacted high margin consumer occasions, mainly through the closure of the on premise channel and the sharp contraction of the single serve consumption, the latter especially in water, juices and sports drinks. During the quarter our e-commerce platform, “La Barra”, increased its sales by six times, helping us, although in a lower scale, to offset the drop in volumes and improve our mix. (ii) The International Business Operating segment, which includes Argentina, Bolivia, Paraguay and Uruguay, reported a 12.0% decline in volumes and a 25.6% decrease on average prices in CLP. EBITDA registered a loss of CLP 11,831 million. The drop in volumes was across all the geographies, and it was deeper in countries with stricter restrictions due to the pandemic. The lower average price in CLP was mainly explained by the absence of price increases in Argentina. (iii) The Wine Operating segment posted a 6.5% rise in volumes and a 1.2% growth in average prices. EBITDA reached CLP 10,384 million, an expansion of 33.7%, and EBITDA margin improved from 14.3% to 17.8%. The higher result was driven by a good performance in volumes in the Chilean and Argentine domestic markets, associated with the brands acquired in Argentina in 2019, a stronger USD on export revenues and a lower cost of wine. (iv) In Colombia, where we have a joint venture with Postobón, volumes were slightly positive, due to a strong recovery in May and June, the latter showing double-digit growth, which more than offset the deep contraction in April due to the lockdowns. This performance allowed us to gain market share, reflecting a consolidated brand portfolio and a strong distribution network.
CLOSING REMARKS: In the second quarter of 2020, CCU’s performance was deeply affected by the restrictions to control the Covid-19 pandemic, which sharply impacted consumer occasions across all our geographies. In this context we continued focusing on people, operation continuity, and financial health. In addition, the highlights of the quarter were the strengthening of our market position, despite volume drop, due to continuous improvement in brand equity and sales execution; the margins deterioration, mainly associated with negative external effects; and the control of our expenses. Looking ahead we will continue putting our efforts in recovering profitable growth through revenue management initiatives, efficiencies and strong brands.

CONSOLIDATED INCOME STATEMENT HIGHLIGHTS - SECOND QUARTER (Exhibit 1 & 3) |
· |
Net sales decreased 15.6%, explained by a 12.0%
drop in consolidated volumes and by 4.1% lower average prices in CLP.
The contraction in volumes was driven by a decline of 13.4% and 12.0% in the Chile and the International Business Operating segments, respectively, while the Wine Operating segment increased 6.5%, explained by the Chilean and Argentine domestic markets, associated with the brands acquired in Argentina in 2019, partially offset by a decrease in exports. The negative consolidated volume growth reflected the impact of the restrictions to control the pandemic across the region and its deep impact on consumer occasions. The lower average prices in CLP were explained by a 25.6% fall in the International Business Operating segment, due to the absence of price increases in Argentina, partially compensated by a 1.2% growth in the Wine Operating segment, as a consequence of a stronger USD on export revenues, and a 0.7% rise in the Chile Operating segment. |
· | Cost of sales was down 7.9%, explained by the 12.0% contraction in volumes partially offset by a 4.7% rise in the Cost of sales per hectoliter. The Chile Operating segment reported an 11.7% growth in Cost of sales per hectoliter, driven by the increase in USD-linked costs from the 20.4%3 devaluation of the CLP against the USD, partially offset with lower costs in raw materials, especially PET and aluminum. In the International Business Operating segment, the Cost of sales per hectoliter in CLP decreased 12.4%, due to a currency translation effect, given that in local currency Cost of sales per hectoliter increased as result of higher USD-linked costs, largely explained by the 65.1%4 devaluation of the ARS against the USD, and the impact of inflation, partially compensated with lower costs in raw materials. In the Wine Operating segment, the Cost of sales per hectoliter decreased 4.2%, impacted by a lower cost of wine that more than offset the effect of the depreciation of the CLP against the USD on our packaging materials linked to this currency. |
· | Gross profit reached CLP 134,567 million, a 24.3% decline, resulting in a 484 bps drop in our Gross margin, from 47.1% to 42.3%, as a consequence of the effects described above. |
· | MSD&A expenses fell 7.9%, due to the reduction in marketing and distribution expenses. In the Chile Operating segment, MSD&A expenses contracted 5.2%. In the International Business Operating segment MSD&A expenses were down 18.3% and In the Wine Operating segment, MSD&A expenses grew 9.1%. |
· | EBIT reached a loss of CLP 7,457 million, a contraction of CLP 32,188 million. The weaker financial result was mainly explained by: (i) a 12.0% contraction in consolidated volumes, (ii) negative external effects from the devaluation of the CLP and ARS against the USD, affecting our USD-denominated costs and the translation of our results, partially compensated by wine export revenues, and (iii) lower average prices in CLP, mainly reflecting the absence of price increases in Argentina, not allowing us to offset the impact in costs of the high inflation and devaluation in this country. These effects were partially compensated by the decrease of 7.9% in MD&A expenses, mainly due to lower distribution and marketing expenses. |
· | EBITDA was down 62.1%, or CLP 32,225 million, reaching CLP 19,654 million, explained by a fall of CLP 21,492 million in the Chile Operating segment, and a CLP 12,448 million drop in the International Business Operating segment, partially offset by an increase of CLP 2,615 million in the Wine Operating segment. EBITDA margin dropped 757 bps, from 13.7% to 6.2%. |
· | Non-operating result totalized a loss of CLP 240 million, a decrease of 96.7% when compared to a loss of CLP 7,271 million last year, primarily due to: (i) a higher gain in Foreign currency exchange differences by CLP 9,329 million, (ii) a better result of CLP 4,287 million in Results as per adjustment units, mostly explained by a lower UF variation during 2Q20 compared with 2Q19 and its impact on UF-linked liabilities, and (iii) a better result in Equity and income of JVs and associated by CLP 4,261 million, mainly caused by a higher financial result in Colombia. These effects were partially offset by: (i) higher Net financial expenses by CLP 5,420 million, mainly due to higher Cash and cash equivalents held last year for tax expenses and dividend payments related to the 2018 ABI Transaction5, and a higher financial debt, (ii) lower result in other gains/(losses) by CLP 5,427 million, mostly explained by losses on forward contracts entered into to mitigate the impact of foreign exchange rate fluctuations on our foreign currency denominated assets. |
· | Income taxes reached a gain of CLP 4,058 million, mostly explained by a negative taxable income in 2020. |
· | Net income reached a loss of CLP 3,257 million, a contraction of CLP 21,297 million, mostly explained by the reasons described above and by a positive non-recurrent effect of CLP 6,731 million from a tax asset revaluation in 2019 in Argentina. |

PRESS RELEASE |
CONSOLIDATED INCOME STATEMENT HIGHLIGHTS - FIRST HALF (Exhibit 2 & 4) |
· | Net sales decreased 2.9%, explained by a 1.3% drop in consolidated volumes and by 1.6% lower average prices in CLP. Volume contraction was driven by a 5.9% fall in the International Business Operating segment, while the Chile and Wine Operating segments recorded an increment of 0.4% and 4.8%, respectively. The negative consolidated volume growth was explained by the restrictions to control the Covid-19 pandemic in the region, which sharply impacted consumer occasions during the second quarter. The lower average prices in CLP were explained by a 7.9% drop in the International Business Operating segment, mostly due to the absence of price increases in Argentina, and by a 1.0% decrease on average prices in the Chile Operating segment, as a result of promotional activities in the first quarter. These effects were partially offset by a 4.1% growth in the Wine Operating segment, as a consequence of a stronger USD on export revenues. |
· | Cost of sales was up 2.4% explained by the 3.8% increment in Cost of sales per hectoliter, partially compensated by the 1.3% contraction in volumes. The Chile Operating segment reported a 6.9% growth in Cost of sales per hectoliter, driven by the increase in USD-linked costs from the 20.3%3 devaluation of the CLP against the USD, partially offset with lower costs in raw materials, especially aluminum and PET, and efficiencies in manufacturing. In the International Business Operating segment, the Cost of sales per hectoliter in CLP increased 0.8%, mostly as a result of higher USD-linked costs, largely explained by the 65.1%4 devaluation of the ARS against the USD, and the impact of inflation, partially compensated with lower costs in raw materials and efficiencies. In the Wine Operating segment, the Cost of sales per hectoliter decreased 6.0%, impacted by a lower cost of wine that more than offset the effect of the depreciation of the CLP against the USD on our packaging materials linked to this currency. |
· | Gross profit reached CLP 388,361 million, an 8.2% drop, resulting in a 273 bps contraction in our Gross margin, from 49.5% to 46.8%, as a consequence of the effects described above. |
· | MSD&A expenses grew by 2.6%, and as a percentage of Net sales increased by 218 bps. In the Chile Operating segment, MSD&A increased 3.0% and as a percentage of Net sales rose 132 bps. In the International Business Operating segment, MSD&A decreased 3.4% in CLP and as a percentage of Net sales deteriorated by 552 bps, mostly associated with the high level of inflation in Argentina, not compensated with price increases. In the Wine Operating segment, MSD&A grew 15.3% and as a percentage of Net sales rose 154 bps, mainly explained by higher marketing expenses due to marketing export expenses, mostly denominated in USD and Euros. |
· | EBIT reached CLP 54,981 million, a contraction of 45.4%. The weaker financial result was mainly explained by: (i) strong negative external effects from the devaluation of the CLP and ARS against the USD, affecting our USD-denominated costs and the translation of our results, partially compensated by wine export revenues, (ii) a 1.3% decrease in consolidated volumes, and (iii) lower average prices in CLP, mainly reflecting the absence of price increases in Argentina, not allowing us to offset the impact in costs of the high inflation and devaluation in this country. |
· | EBITDA was down 27.5%, reaching CLP 110,384 million, explained by a 21.0% contraction in the Chile Operating segment and a drop of CLP 19,955 million in the International Business Operating segment, partially compensated by a 55.6% expansion in the Wine Operating segment. Consequently, EBITDA margin dropped 452 bps, from 17.8% to 13.3%. |
· | Non-operating result totalized a loss of CLP 6,424 million, a decrease of 47.3% when compared to a loss of CLP 12,190 million last year, primarily due to: (i) a better result in Foreign currency exchange differences by CLP 5,080 million, (ii) a lower loss in Equity and income of JVs and associated by CLP 5,015 million, mainly caused by a higher financial result in Colombia, (iii) a lower loss of CLP 2,916 million in Results as per adjustment units, mostly explained by a lower UF variation during the first half of 2020 compared with 2019 and its impact on UF-linked liabilities, and (iv) a higher result in other gains/(losses) by CLP 2,838 million, explained by a better result on forward contracts entered into to mitigate the impact of foreign exchange rate fluctuations on our foreign currency denominated assets. These effects were partially offset by higher Net financial expenses by CLP 10,083 million, mainly due to higher Cash and cash equivalents held last year for tax expenses and dividend payments related to the 2018 ABI Transaction5 and higher debt. |
· | Income taxes reached CLP 16,280 million, expanding 8.9% from last year, mostly explained by higher taxes resulting from our foreign currency denominated assets as a consequence of the appreciation of the USD against the CLP during the first half of the year and a positive non-recurrent effect of CLP 6,731 million from a tax asset revaluation in 2019 in Argentina, partially compensated by a lower taxable income. |
· | Net income reached CLP 28,978 million, a contraction of 56.5%. |

HIGHLIGHTS OPERATING SEGMENTS SECOND QUARTER |
CHILE OPERATING SEGMENT
In the Chile Operating segment, volumes dropped 13.4%, while average prices rose by 0.7%. EBITDA reached CLP 24,537 million, contracting 46.7%, and EBITDA margin deteriorated from 19.6% to 12.0%. This performance was largely associated with lockdown measures, which deeply impacted high margin consumer occasions, mainly through the closure of the on premise channel and the sharp contraction of the single serve consumption, the latter especially in water, juices and sports drinks. During the quarter our e-commerce platform, “La Barra”, increased its sales close to six times, helping us, although in a lower scale, to offset the drop in volumes and improve our mix.
During the Covid-19 sanitary emergency, CCU has reinforced its commitment to society by developing initiatives which reflect the essence of its business. Thus, in addition to the production and donation to the Ministry of Health of over fifty thousand liters of hand sanitizer, using as raw material the alcohol generated from the dealcoholization process of our non-alcoholic beers Cristal Cero and Heineken 0.0., and over sixty thousand liters of disinfectant alcohol, using alcohol obtained from the distillation process from our subsidiary Compañía Pisquera de Chile, through the initiative “Almacén Seguro” we produced and distributed more than sixty thousand face shields, made by our subsidiary Plasco using PET pre-forms for our clients protection. Also, CCU and its JV Central Cervecera de Colombia, made available a charter flight to the Chilean and Colombian Foreign Affairs ministries in order to allow that more than two hundred people to be reunited with their families in the middle of the health emergency, in line with the concept “Juntémonos” of our beer brand Cristal and “Colombia en una Cerveza” of our beer brand Andina. In addition, we launched the campaign “Yo Invito” to support bars and restaurants, donated products to support community organizations and provided additional financial and consulting support to our clients through CRECCU.
In terms of brands, we launched Pure Life Alkaline, a still water with more minerals to achieve a higher ph level, and a new edition of Mistral Selección de Barricas, a limited edition premium pisco aged in oak. Also during the quarter, we adapted our marketing strategy to be close to our consumers even in the current context. Thus, we strengthened our digital channels by developing initiatives such as on-line football tournaments with our beer brand Cristal, live concerts with our beer brand Escudo, and the relaunch of the Pepsi Channel which includes music and contests.
INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS OPERATING SEGMENT
The International Business Operating segment, which includes Argentina, Bolivia, Paraguay and Uruguay, reported a 12.0% decline in volumes and a 25.6% decrease on average prices in CLP. EBITDA registered a loss of CLP 11,831 million. The drop in volumes was across all the geographies, and it was deeper in countries with stricter restrictions due to the pandemic. The lower average price in CLP was mainly explained by the absence of price increases in Argentina.
Regarding initiatives related to the Covid-19 pandemic, in Colombia, through our brand Andina, we participated in the Sunrise Project, a digital platform which allows donations and pre-purchases to over 1,600 bars and restaurants, we produced and donated five thousand facial shields to the Ministry of Health and to our clients in Uruguay, and fifty thousand units of hand-sanitizer in Argentina, in collaboration with other companies. Also in Argentina, under the campaigns #AquíEstamos and #AhíEstaremos, which committed the donation of beer to bars and restaurants, we donated 100 thousand glasses of the beer brand Salta and 175 thousand glasses of the beer brand Santa Fe.
In terms of brands, in Uruguay, we launched Imperial Cream Stout, a dark beer especially for the winter season. Also, we strengthened our digital channels developing virtual interaction with our clients in Argentina and Bolivia through our main brands. Finally, in Paraguay we recently started the operation of a new distribution center with more capacity and space for our products and workers.
WINE OPERATING SEGMENT
The Wine Operating segment posted a 6.5% rise in volumes and a 1.2% growth in average prices. EBITDA reached CLP 10,384 million, an expansion of 33.7%, and EBITDA margin improved from 14.3% to 17.8%. The higher result was driven by a good performance in volumes in the Chilean and Argentine domestic markets, associated with the brands acquired in Argentina in 2019, a stronger USD on export revenues and a lower cost of wine.
During the quarter, in addition to contributing to the sanitation of the streets of several locations in Chile, VSPT made available PCR laboratory equipment to the Ministry of Health of Chile in order to strengthen the detection capabilities of Covid-19. In terms of international recognition VSPT obtained the “For Life” certification, an accreditation that evaluates the foundations of a sustainable and socially responsible company, ensuring excellence in meeting the demands of the society to corporations.
