UNITED BREWERIES CO INC (CCU) Form 6-K — Aug 5, 2026
CCU (Compañía Cervecerías Unidas) furnished its 2Q26 results via Form 6-K: net sales rose 4.8% to CLP 607,801 million on 6.4% higher average prices, while consolidated volumes slipped 1.5%. EBITDA jumped 59.4% to CLP 31,591 million with margin up 178 bps to 5.2%. The bottom line deteriorated: net income was a loss of CLP 20,712 million versus a CLP 11,218 million loss a year earlier, hurt by a non-recurring CLP 6,068 million impairment tied to Bolivia and the absence of a prior-year Argentine tax benefit. First-half net income still fell 28.8% to CLP 33,143 million.
