Primo Brands Corporation operates as a branded beverage company in North America, offering a range of solutions including water dispensers, direct delivery of refillable/reusable bottles, pre-filled water exchange programs, and water filtration appliances. The company's portfolio includes well-known brands such as Poland Spring, Pure Life, Saratoga, Mountain Valley, Arrowhead, Deer Park, Ice Mountain, Ozarka, and Zephyrhills. Primo Brands distributes its products through various channels, including retail, residential, eCommerce, on-premise, and commercial channels.

In the 10-Q report, Primo Brands Corp's management discussed the financial condition and results of operations, highlighting the company's focus on healthy hydration and responsibly sourced diversified offerings across products, formats, channels, price points, and consumer occasions. The company's comprehensive portfolio of branded water and beverages reaches consumers through various distribution channels, including retail outlets, away from home locations such as hotels and hospitals, food service accounts, and direct delivery to homes and businesses.

The report also outlined the evolving customer trends that Primo Brands is well-positioned to benefit from, including the continued acceleration of e-commerce and the company's ability to increase brand awareness. Primo Brands emphasized its focus on product innovation and expansion, particularly in underpenetrated, high-growth segments of the bottled water category, such as sparkling, flavored, and enhanced waters.

Additionally, the 10-Q report addressed the impact of consolidation in the retail industry on Primo Brands' operations, as well as the company's exposure to general economic conditions, global supply chain disruptions, and currency exchange risks. Primo Brands Corp also provided a reconciliation of net income to Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure used by the company to evaluate its performance and allocate resources.

In terms of financial performance, the report showed that for the three months ended June 30, 2025, Primo Brands Corp reported net sales of $1,730.1 million, representing a 31.6% increase compared to the same period in 2024. The company's gross profit for the period was $540.9 million, reflecting a 25.8% increase year-over-year. However, operating income decreased by 29.1% to $112.8 million, primarily due to higher selling, general, and administrative expenses, as well as acquisition, integration, and restructuring expenses.
