Growth & Insights and Company News
6 month growth
↑ 11%1 year growth
↑ 12%2 year growth
↑ 12%Danone is investing over €50 million in its Volvic bottling facility in France through 2030 to improve environmental performance. The programme focuses on ecological preservation, operational modernisation, and regional engagement. A primary upgrade includes deploying water reuse technology at the Chancet facility. The installation will make it the first French natural mineral water plant to repurpose treated wastewater for industrial operations, conserving 220 million litres of water annually. The investment also funds a more efficient bottling line, decarbonisation measures, and workforce upskilling. Beginning in 2027, Danone will host a water conference at the site with academic, institutional, and industrial partners. In 2025, Danone's Waters division posted revenue of €4.85 billion, down 2.6% on a reported basis but up 1.9% like-for-like.
Danone has issued a triple-tranche bond totaling €1.5 billion to support liquidity management and extend its debt maturity profile. The offering comprises three €500 million tranches: 18-month notes with a floating coupon of 3-month Euribor +0.30%, 5-year notes with a 4.0910% fixed coupon, and 9-year notes with a 4.4180% fixed coupon. Settlement is expected on 28 September 2026, with listing on Euronext Paris. The company said the bond issue was widely subscribed by a diversified investor base. Danone is rated BBB+ with stable outlook by Standard & Poor's and Baa1 with stable outlook by Moody's. The food and beverage company generated €27.3 billion in sales in 2025.
Arcor and Danone have injected $30 million into Mastellone Hermanos to cancel bank debt, less than a month after taking joint control of the Argentine dairy company. The funds come from La Serenísima Unida, the vehicle both groups created to consolidate the business, and will be applied as an irrevocable contribution towards future share subscription. The capital injection arrives at a critical time for Mastellone. In the first half of the year, La Serenísima reported losses of 4.79 billion pesos, compared to 1.16 billion pesos in the same period the previous year. The company also showed financial debts of around 259.19 billion pesos. The new joint venture combines Mastellone's milk, cheese, and butter operations with Danone Argentina's yoghurt and dessert business, aiming to achieve greater scale and efficiency in a challenging market environment.
Danone reported Q2 2026 sales up 4.2% on a like-for-like basis, with volume/mix increasing 1.9% and price rising 2.3%. The EMEA region grew 3.6%, Americas 4.3%, and APAC 5.2%, driven by competitive performance in China's infant milk formula and strong aqua waters results. For the first half of 2026, sales reached €13.94 billion, up 3.5% like-for-like. Recurring operating margin improved 12 basis points to 13.3%, supported by productivity gains despite inflation. Recurring earnings per share rose 0.9% to €1.92, whilst free cash flow totalled €0.9 billion. The company confirmed its 2026 guidance, expecting like-for-like sales growth between 3% and 5%, with recurring operating income growing faster than sales. Danone recently signed agreements to acquire Huel and Made Group in APAC.
