Anne-Marie Megela
VP & Global Head of Investor Relations
Greetings. I am Anne-Marie Megela, serving as the worldwide leader of Investor Relations for The Kraft Heinz Company. It is my pleasure to greet you for our business review covering the fourth quarter and the entirety of 2025. Throughout this presentation, we intend to offer forward-looking declarations concerning our future prospects, encompassing our corporate blueprints, strategic approaches, endeavors, capital outlays, their anticipated timelines, and projected effects. Our current understanding forms the basis of these declarations, but actual outcomes could diverge significantly due to inherent risks and unpredictabilities. For a deeper understanding of these risks and uncertainties, kindly consult the precautionary declarations and risk elements detailed in today’s earnings announcement, which are provided alongside this address, in addition to our latest 10-K, 10-Q, and 8-K submissions.
Furthermore, we will make mention of non-GAAP financial metrics, which omit specific elements from our fiscal outcomes presented in alignment with GAAP. Kindly consult today’s earnings announcement and the accompanying non-GAAP data, accessible on our web portal at ir.kraftheinzcompany.com within the ‘News & Events’ section, for an examination of our non-GAAP financial metrics and their alignment with equivalent GAAP financial metrics. For today’s agenda, our Chief Executive Officer, Steve Cahillane, is scheduled to deliver a briefing on our overarching strategic direction and enterprise achievements. Subsequently, Andre Maciel, our Chief Worldwide Financial Officer, will present a fiscal analysis of the fourth quarter’s outcomes, and we shall wrap up by detailing our projections for 2026. An independent live question-and-answer session has also been arranged with financial analysts. The aforementioned Q&A session can be accessed via ir.kraftheinzcompany.com. A recording of this event will similarly be made available on the identical website shortly after its conclusion.
