Highlights

Third quarter revenue of $222.8 million, a 7.1% increase compared to the prior year period, with a constant currency revenue increase of 3.8% compared to the prior year period.
Gross margin in the third quarter was 29.8%, which was flat compared to the prior year period.
Third quarter net loss attributable to shareholders of the parent was $65.3 million, which is an increase of $30.7 million compared to a net loss attributable to shareholders of the parent of $34.6 million in the prior year period primarily due to fair value losses on Convertible Notes.
Third quarter Adjusted EBITDA was $3.1 million, which is an improvement of $8.2 million compared to the prior year period.
The Company is reaffirming its 2025 outlook on its primary guidance metrics as follows:
- Constant currency revenue growth is expected to be in the range of approximately flat to +1%;
- Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be in the range of positive $5 million to $15 million;
- Capital expenditures are expected to be approximately $20 million.
The Company's strategic review of its Greater China business is ongoing.
Subsequent to quarter-end, on October 3, 2025, the Company completed its previously-announced refinancing by using proceeds from issuance of Nordic Bonds to prepay the Term Loan B Credit Agreement in full, repurchase and cancel certain of its U.S. Convertible Notes and by canceling, terminating, and replacing its existing revolving credit facility with a new super senior revolving credit facility.

Third Quarter 2025 Results

Revenue increased $14.8 million, or 7.1% to $222.8 million for the third quarter ended September 30, 2025, compared to $208.0 million for the prior year period. Excluding a foreign currency exchange tailwind of $6.8 million, revenue for the third quarter was $216.0 million, or an increase of 3.8% compared to the prior year period. The growth in constant currency revenue was primarily driven by another quarter of consistent performance in Europe & International and by a strong quarter in Greater China, partially offset by decline in North America, driven mainly by reduction in revenue to the segment's largest foodservice customer. Sold volume for the third quarter of 2025 increased 6.6% to 150.6 million liters compared to 141.3 million liters in the third quarter of 2024. Produced finished goods volume for the third quarter of 2025 was 147.6 million liters compared to 148.0 million liters for the third quarter of 2024.

Gross profit was $66.3 million for the third quarter of 2025 compared to $62.0 million for the third quarter of 2024. Gross profit margin was 29.8% in the third quarter of 2025, which was flat compared to the prior year period. The margin stability compared to the third quarter of 2024 was explained by improvements in supply chain efficiency in Europe & International and the benefits of foreign exchange, offset by declines due to lower volumes in North America, negative mix impact in Greater China, and inflation.

Research and development expenses in the third quarter of 2025 decreased $6.3 million to $4.5 million compared to $10.9 million in the prior year period. The decrease was mainly explained by expenses in the prior year period related to a new product launch issue in the North America segment.

Selling, general and administrative expenses in the third quarter of 2025 decreased $4.6 million to $75.1 million compared to $79.7 million in the prior year period. The Company continued to take actions to reduce overhead expenses, which was partially offset by foreign exchange movements and increased customer distribution expenses related to increased sold volume.

Other operating income and (expenses), net for the third quarter of 2025 was an expense of $3.6 million comprised primarily of $3.5 million in costs for the Company's strategic review of the Greater China segment. Other operating income and (expenses), net for the prior year period was an expense of $0.4 million.

Finance income and (expenses), net for the third quarter of 2025 was an expense of $47.6 million comprised primarily of fair value losses on Convertible Notes of $32.2 million and net interest expenses of $15.2 million. The finance income and (expenses), net for the prior year period was an expense of $4.3 million comprised primarily of net interest expenses of $13.3 million, offset by fair value gains on Convertible Notes of $5.3 million and net foreign exchange gains of $4.5 million.

Net loss attributable to shareholders of the parent was $65.3 million for the third quarter of 2025 compared to a loss of $34.6 million in the prior year period. The increase in loss was primarily due to fair value losses on Convertible Notes, partially offset by higher gross profit, lower research and development and selling, general and administrative expenses.

Adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter of 2025 was $3.1 million, compared to a loss of $5.0 million in the prior year period. The improvement in Adjusted EBITDA was primarily a result of higher gross profit, lower research and development and selling, general and administrative expenses.

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA loss, and Constant Currency Revenue are non-IFRS financial measures defined under "Non-IFRS financial measures". Please see above revenue at constant currency table and "Reconciliation of IFRS to Non-IFRS Financial measures" at the end of this press release.

Europe & International

Europe & International revenue increased $13.4 million, or 12.2%, to $123.3 million for the third quarter of 2025, compared to $109.9 million in the prior year period. Excluding a foreign currency exchange tailwind of $6.8 million, Europe & International revenue for the third quarter was $116.5 million, or an increase of 6.0%. For the third quarter of 2025, the volume growth was 8.4% primarily driven by growth in the Barista products. The revenue increase from volume growth for the third quarter was partially offset by a price/mix decline of 2.4%. Approximately 79% of Europe & International revenue was from the retail channel for the third quarter of 2025 compared to 82% in the prior year period. The sold finished goods volume for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 amounted to 83.6 and 77.2 million liters, respectively.

Europe & International Adjusted EBITDA increased $9.5 million to $21.9 million for the third quarter of 2025 compared to $12.4 million in the prior year period. The improvement in Adjusted EBITDA was primarily driven by higher gross profit driven by higher revenue and continued supply chain productivity.

North America

North America revenue decreased $7.0 million, or 10.1%, to $62.1 million for the third quarter of 2025, compared to $69.1 million in the prior year period. The sold finished goods volume for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 amounted to 34.4 million and 39.5 million liters, respectively. The 12.8% volume decrease was primarily due to reduction in sales to the segment's largest foodservice customer. Approximately 61% of North America revenue was from the retail channel in the third quarter of compared to 52% in the prior year period.

North America Adjusted EBITDA decreased $4.5 million to a loss of $1.3 million compared to a profit of $3.3 million in the prior year period. The reduction in Adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to lower gross profit, largely driven by lower sold volume and decreased fixed cost absorption.

Greater China

Greater China revenue increased $8.4 million, or 28.8%, to $37.4 million for the third quarter of 2025, compared to $29.1 million in the prior year period. The foreign currency exchange impact was minor for the quarter. The Greater China segment growth was primarily driven by increased sales across both the Foodservice and retail channels. Approximately 66% of Greater China revenue was from the foodservice channel for the third quarter of 2025 compared to 72% in the prior year period. The sold finished goods volume for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 amounted to 32.5 million and 24.6 million liters, respectively.

Greater China Adjusted EBITDA was stable versus prior year period at $1.6 million. The stability in EBITDA is explained by higher gross profit offset by higher selling, general and administrative expenses.

Corporate

Oatly's corporate expense, which consists of general costs not allocated to the segments, in the third quarter of 2025 was $21.4 million, a decrease of $3.8 million compared to the prior year period. Adjusted EBITDA in the third quarter of 2025 was a loss of $19.1 million compared to a loss of $22.4 million in the prior year period.

Balance Sheet and Cash Flows

As of September 30, 2025, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $58.9 million and total outstanding debt of $507.7 million consisting of Convertible Notes and liabilities to credit institutions. Net cash used in operating activities was $17.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $104.2 million during the prior year period, which was primarily driven by improved operating results and improvements in net working capital.

As previously disclosed, on September 30, 2025, the Company issued Nordic Bonds with an initial issue amount of SEK 1,700 million and entered into a SEK 750 million super senior revolving credit facility. Following the satisfaction of certain conditions, the proceeds from the Nordic Bonds were released to the Company from escrow on October 3, 2025, and used to prepay the Term Loan B Credit Agreement in full, repurchase and cancel an aggregate amount of $42.9 million of its U.S. Convertible Notes and pay related transaction costs. Further, on October 3, 2025, the Company cancelled, terminated, and replaced its existing revolving credit facility with the new super senior revolving credit facility.

Capital expenditures were $13.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $28.9 million in the prior year period.

Free cash flow was an outflow of $31.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to an outflow of $133.1 million during the prior year period. The improvement in free cash flow was driven by decreased net cash flows used in operating activities and lower capital expenditures.

Free Cash Flow is a non-IFRS liquidity measure defined under "Non-IFRS financial measures." Please see "Reconciliation of IFRS to Non-IFRS Financial measures" at the end of this press release.

Strategic Review of Greater China Business

The Company continues its strategic review of the Company's Greater China business announced last quarter.

There is no definitive timetable for completing the strategic review. The Company does not intend to provide further updates unless and until the Board of Directors has approved a specific course of action or determines that additional disclosure is appropriate or required. The Company cautions that there can be no assurances that the process will result in any transaction or strategic change.

Outlook

The Company's outlook continues to include the expected results of the Greater China segment. Based on the Company's assessment of the current operating environment and the actions it is taking, the Company is reaffirming its 2025 outlook for its primary metrics.

Constant currency revenue growth is expected to be in the range of approximately flat to +1%;
Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be in the range of positive $5 million to $15 million;
Capital expenditures are expected to be approximately $20 million.

Based on recent foreign exchange rates, the full-year impact of foreign exchange is expected to be a tailwind to revenue growth by approximately 250 basis, compared to the prior expectation of a tailwind of approximately 150 basis points.

This outlook is provided in the context of significant macroeconomic uncertainty and other geopolitical uncertainties.

The Company cannot provide a reconciliation of constant currency revenue growth or Adjusted EBITDA guidance to the nearest comparable corresponding IFRS metric without unreasonable efforts due to difficulty in predicting certain items excluded from these non-IFRS measures. The items necessary to reconcile are not within Oatly's control, may vary greatly between periods and could significantly impact future financial results.

Conference Call, Webcast and Supplemental Presentation Details

Oatly will host a conference call and webcast at 8:00 a.m. ET today to discuss these results. The conference call, simultaneous, live webcast and supplemental presentation can be accessed on Oatly's Investors website at https://investors.oatly.com under "Events." The webcast will be archived for 30 days.

Non-IFRS Financial Measures

We use EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Constant Currency Revenue as non-IFRS financial measures in assessing our operating performance and Free Cash Flow as a non-IFRS liquidity measure, and each in our financial communications.

"EBITDA" is defined as loss for the period adjusted to exclude, when applicable, income tax expense, finance expenses, finance income and depreciation and amortization expense.

"Adjusted EBITDA" is defined as loss for the period adjusted to exclude, when applicable, income tax expense, finance expenses, finance income, depreciation and amortization expense, share-based compensation expense, restructuring costs, costs related to the strategic review of the Greater China business, impacts related to the closure of production facility, discontinued construction of production facilities, expenses related to a new product launch issue and non-controlling interests.

Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to loss for the period or any other measure of financial performance calculated and presented in accordance with IFRS. There are a number of limitations related to the use of Adjusted EBITDA rather than loss for the period, which is the most directly comparable IFRS measure. Some of these limitations are:

Adjusted EBITDA excludes depreciation and amortization expense and, although these are non-cash expenses, the assets being depreciated may have to be replaced in the future increasing our cash requirements;
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect interest expense, or the cash required to service our debt, which reduces cash available to us;
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect income tax payments that reduce cash available to us;
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect recurring share-based compensation expense and, therefore, does not include all of our compensation costs;
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect restructuring costs that reduce cash available to us in future periods;
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect costs related to the strategic review of the Greater China business that reduce cash available to us;
Adjusted EBITDA excludes impacts related to the closure of production facility, although some of these may reduce cash available to us in future periods;
Adjusted EBITDA excludes impacts related to discontinued construction of production facilities, although some of these may reduce cash available to us in future periods;
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect expenses related to a new product launch issue that reduced cash available to us;
Other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently, which reduces its usefulness as a comparative measure.

Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial information provided in accordance with IFRS. Below we have provided a reconciliation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to loss for the period, the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with IFRS, for the periods presented.

"Constant Currency Revenue" is calculated by translating the current year reported revenue amounts into comparable amounts using the prior year reporting period's average foreign exchange rates which have been provided by a third party. Constant Currency Revenue is a non-IFRS measure and is not a substitute for IFRS measures in assessing our overall financial performance.

Constant currency revenue is used to provide a framework in assessing how our business and geographic segments performed excluding the effects of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations and we believe this information is useful to investors to facilitate comparisons and better identify trends in our business. Above we have provided a reconciliation of revenue as reported to revenue on a constant currency basis for the periods presented.

"Free Cash Flow" is defined as net cash flows used in operating activities less capital expenditures. We believe Free Cash Flow is a useful supplemental financial measure for us and investors in assessing our ability to pursue business opportunities and investments. Free Cash Flow is not a measure of our liquidity under IFRS and should not be considered as an alternative to net cash flows used in operating activities.

Free Cash Flow is a non-IFRS measure and is not a substitute for IFRS measures in assessing our overall financial liquidity. Because Free Cash Flow is not a measurement determined in accordance with IFRS, and is susceptible to varying calculations, it may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures presented by other companies. Free Cash Flow should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for an analysis of our results as reported on our interim condensed consolidated financial statements appearing elsewhere in this document. Below we have provided a reconciliation of Free Cash Flow to net cash flows used in operating activities for the periods presented.
