Mondelez International, Inc. Class A - December 2025
“Our stock selection within the Consumer Staples sector detracted from relative performance. Mondelez (- 13.0%) was impacted by softer third-quarter results and a reduction to full-year guidance, reflecting margin pressure from elevated cocoa costs and increased reinvestment to support demand.”
Mondelez International, Inc. Class A - December 2025
“In the Consumer Staples sector, our position in Mondelez International declined 13.0% during the quarter primarily due to the company cutting its full- year earnings forecast in late October, citing high cocoa prices and cautious consumers pulling back from snack purchases as they focused on essential goods.”
Mondelez International, Inc. Class A - September 2025
“ The Consumer Staples sector fell the most in the quarter, but the weighting was relatively unchanged since we added to Mondelez International (MDLZ).”

“Theme 2: Emerging markets outperforming developed markets amid K-shaped consumer bifurcation Distinct geographic and demographic divergence has materialised across consumer markets over Q2. Developed markets are underperforming as inflation-weary consumers reduce non-essential spending or trade down to extreme value and discount channels, particularly outside of higher-income brackets. This has created a ‘K-shaped’ environment, in which the demand within developed markets has moved in opposite directions, with higher-income demand remaining robust while the middle market is squeezed. This has left premium goods and private-label value offerings resilient. Emerging markets – particularly India, Brazil, and Mexico – have been showing robust growth. Mondelez CEO, Dirk Van de Put: “In North America… Growth remains K-shaped, with consumers gravitating toward both value formats and premium, better-for-you options.” Unilever CFO, Srinivas Phatak: “Emerging markets continued to be a strong growth engine with strong volume-led growth in the first half. In North America, we continued our volume outperformance while Europe was subdued.””
