    Ben & Jerry's parent company announces first earnings results

    February 12, 2026

    The Magnum Ice Cream Co. announced fiscal year 2025 earnings came in 7.9 billion euros (approximately $9.38 million U.S. dollars), +4.2% organic sales growth (OSG) year-on-year, with volume growth +1.5% and price growth +2.6%.

    Operating Profit was 599 million euros, (approximately $711 million U.S. dollars) reflecting planned net increase of 118 million euros in separation and restructuring costs in 2025 vs 2024 and forex translation effect.

    “We delivered a solid operational performance in 2025, with broad-based organic sales growth of 4.2%, outperforming the growing global ice cream market and consolidating our leading position whilst we delivered a complex company separation. I am particularly pleased with our 1.5% volume growth, reflecting the continued momentum behind our well-loved brands. Our four leading brands, Magnum, Ben & Jerry’s, Cornetto and the Heartbrand, were the driving force behind our performance, with 150 new launches, including Magnum Utopia and Cornetto Max," said Peter Ter Kulve, CEO.

    "Every region contributed to growth, with market share gains across most key markets, including the US, our largest market. Growth was supported by improved availability and operational rigour with our front-line first model. Through disciplined execution of our productivity programme, and select pricing actions, we mitigated the impact of elevated commodity inflation and continued to grow volume. Whilst FX movements and TSA-related cash costs affected our Adjusted EBITDA margin, the fundamentals of the business are sound, giving us a strong foundation to deliver stakeholder value. I’d like to thank all my colleagues in TMICC for their hard work and commitment.

    Looking ahead, we are focused on executing our growth strategy and driving the productivity programme to deliver profitable growth. In 2026, we expect 3% to 5% organic sales growth along with underlying margin improvement.”
