Fever-Tree Release Pre-Close Trading Update

Fever-Tree Drinks plc

“Excellent strategic progress in 2025 and expect to deliver a financial performance

marginally ahead of market expectations.”

Fever-Tree Drinks plc (the “Group”), the world’s leading supplier of premium carbonated mixers, today provides a pre-close trading update for the year ended 31 December 2025.

Adjusted revenue1 and adjusted EBITDA2 for FY25 are expected to be marginally ahead of current market expectations3, based upon good momentum in the second half which has resulted in Fever-Tree brand revenue increasing by 5% in H2, and full year growth of 4% (both at constant currency). This reflects continued delivery against the Group’s strategic priorities and ongoing strong market share performance. In the US, the transition into Molson Coors’ national distribution network is progressing to plan and, alongside an upweighted marketing investment, will provide a strong platform for 2026.

Following the £100m share buyback programme undertaken during 2025, the previously announced additional £30m share buyback tranche will commence in February 2026.

2025 Highlights:

  • US revenue +6%*. The integration of Fever-Tree into Molson Coors’ national network of distributors has progressed well through the year, with continued positive brand momentum.
  • UK revenue -2%. Trading notably improved in the second half, driven by a robust Off-Trade performance with increasing momentum across the Group’s portfolio beyond tonic, particularly our premium soft drink range.
  • Europe revenue +2%*. Growth was led by a strong performance in France and Benelux, as the Group continued to execute its strategy across the region.
  • ROW +22%* reflecting particularly strong growth in Australia, New Zealand and Canada as well as some beneficial phasing of orders.

Outlook

We remain comfortable with current 2026 market expectations.

Tim Warrillow, CEO of Fever-Tree commented:

“We made excellent progress in 2025. Our partnership with Molson Coors in the US is progressing well, and the momentum behind the brand is especially encouraging, giving us confidence in the growing opportunity in our largest market as execution moves beyond the transition phase.

Across all our markets, we are continuing to build momentum as we broaden Fever-Tree beyond tonic, positioning the brand as not only the premium mixer but also premium soft drink of choice. We are uniquely positioned to unlock the growth opportunities afforded by the consumer trends towards moderation, premiumisation and longer, lighter serves. With exciting marketing campaigns and a strong innovation pipeline, delivered by our passionate team, I am confident we will drive strong growth in 2026 and beyond.”

Next Scheduled Announcement

The Group will announce its Preliminary Results on 24 March 2026.
