Danone

Our General Assembly Meeting has always been a key milestone in the relationship between the company management and our shareholders – those who have invested in Danone. Today was no exception. Together with our investors, we took stock of 2 years of consistent progress and value creation for all, driven largely by Renew Danone.   Our long-term strategy to reconnect with a sustainable and profitable growth model, Renew is anchored in our DNA – a dual commitment to social/economic progress, and a mission of bringing health through food to as many people as possible. At the heart: science, innovation, consumer/patient-centricity.   No strategy is effective without dedicated teams. Our success over the past two years is the fruit of the hard work and passion of our Danoners – thank you!   Moving forward, we will meet challenges in a methodical and disciplined way, and continue to build our resilience, skills, science, and tools to ensure our future success. Looking forward to June, when we will share the next chapter of Renew Danone at our Capital Market Event in Amsterdam! #WinningTogether Juergen Esser

2023, another GREAT year for Danone – one of consistent progress with Renew Danone, and VALUE across all our categories and geographies. Our annual General Assembly meeting in Paris today was an opportunity to take a step back and assess this progress with our shareholders – to look at the challenges we have faced and the victories we have achieved. Our success is the result of our Danoners’ hard work – a HUGE thank you to all our incredible and passionate teams worldwide! Driven by RENEW Danone and our Danone Impact Journey, we are in the driver’s seat of a science and value-based journey, taking Danone into a future built on SUSTAINABILITY and long-term COMPETITIVE GROWTH! And that’s something to be proud about. Looking forward to more success in 2024! #WinningTogether Antoine de Saint-Affrique Gilles Schnepp

We did it!!! 🎉🏃♂️🚴♂️ A crazy project at the start and just as crazy at the finish: on April 17th, 100 days away from Paris 2024, the finish of the Danone Champions Tour took place! 50 days ago, our gigantic sports relay of over 4,800 km across France set off, mobilizing 1,000 Danone employees from 23 different sites. The goal? To share a clear message: a healthier society is within reach if everyone integrates a balanced diet and regular physical activity into their daily lives. This arrival is another milestone towards the 100 days that separate us from the Paris 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games. Thank you to all the danoners that took part, but also to their supporters in the 1,200 municipalities crossed! #ChampionsForLife

Our Annual Integrated Report 2023 is now online – a fantastic testimony to the way we drive holistic value for all!   2023 was a year of STRONG DELIVERY in all dimensions, another year of shared VALUE CREATION – across all our categories and geographies. At the center of our strategy: SCIENCE, HEALTH & INNOVATION – and we further raised our investments in all those critical areas.   Together with Henri Bruxelles, we are proud that our science & value-based growth journey was supported by our sustainability roadmap, the DANONE IMPACT JOURNEY, introduced early 2023. Its 3 pillars: Health, Nature, People & Communities. And if one thing’s for sure, our report shows that SUSTAINABILITY and long-term COMPETITIVE GROWTH go hand-in-hand. A huge THANK YOU and CONGRATS to all our Danoners for making this progress possible!   #RenewDanone #DanoneImpactJourney #Sustainability Danone Laura Palmeiro Aïda Aw Ajay Taheem Shivani KUMAR Agathe Letzelter

Today, we are releasing our results for the first quarter of the year – and this is a GREAT start with a +4,1% Net Sales growth on a like-for-like basis. But what makes us even more pleased is the quality of this growth: our VOLUME/MIX growth is POSITIVE for the second quarter in a row, with all of our categories contributing! We are on track to deliver on our ambition: creating long-term value and sustainable growth, in the DANONE WAY. It is a real privilege to do this together with an amazing team of 100,000 Danoners all around the world! A special thanks to you for all your efforts and dedication! It is now for 2 years that we have been consistently executing according to our RENEW DANONE strategy and we are proud that we are increasingly seeing the benefits in our business results. #DanoneResults Danone Antoine de Saint-Affrique

Danone is a company like no other: a unique organization of talented individuals, some with very atypical jobs – and each of whom makes Danone extraordinary.     In their own way, each Danoner helps to fulfil our mission of bringing health through food to as many people as possible, in a way that has a positive impact on the business and, equally importantly, society and the environment.     In our water business, our Danoners collaborate closely with local partners and actors to preserve our natural resources. Our goal: ensure that current and future generations alike continue to benefit from naturally occurring mineral and spring water.    We are featuring some of these exceptional individuals, and their very unique jobs, in a new video series.    Episode 1 brings you Héloïse Augros and Badoit. Héloïse works to identify and implement actions to preserve naturally sparkling mineral water in Saint-Galmier, France.     Learn more about her role in the first episode below!     #WaterPreservation #Badoit

I’m pleased to share that Danone announced our Q1 business results today, further delivering on our Renew strategy. Globally, our Q1 net sales were €6.8 billion, up +4.1% on a like-for-like basis with positive volume/mix across all categories. This is a good start to the year – and it is due entirely to the work and dedication of our teams across the world. Our Dairy and Plant-based (EDP) business teams drove growth at +3.0% with another balanced quarter of delivery including +0.8% volume/mix. In North America, we delivered a solid Q1 with like-for-like sales growth of +2.5%, sustained volume/mix led growth and net sales of $1.9 billion (€1.7 billion). This result was again led by some of our biggest brands and consistent growth drivers – with International Delight, Oikos and SToK leading the results. In Latin America, our team drove +4.1% growth — with broad based category growth led by Bonafont and our high protein dairy platform. Congratulations to all of our Danoners on these results and continued consistent progress – I’m proud to work alongside you driving our business momentum and putting our mission into action. #ProudDanoner #RENEWDanone
