Net sales for the three months ended Aug. 31 climbed 7% year-over-year, to $2.84 billion, ahead of Wall Street's expectations of $2.82 billion, according to Refinitiv.
Quarterly results Beer sales climbed 12% year-over-year, to $2.4 billion.
Those factors more than offset tailwinds of sales growth, positive pricing dynamics and efficiency gains.
Modelo Especial remains the top brand share gainer and leading brand "in the entire U.S. beer category in dollar sales."
The company expects "net sales growth and operating income growth of that business to ramp up through the remainder" of fiscal year 2024.
