Today, we are joined by BBB Foods Inc.'s Chairman, Chief Executive Officer, Anthony Hatoum, and Chief Financial Officer, Eduardo Pizzuto. I will now turn the call over to Anthony. Please go ahead.

Good morning, and thank you for joining us today. I will begin with a review of our operating results and will be followed by our CFO, Eduardo Pizzuto, who will provide an overview of our financial performance and who will outline our guidance for 2026. We will conclude with a Q&A session to answer the questions you may have. We delivered another quarter of excellent performance and closed the year with strong momentum. Our results in 2025 reflect the continued strength of our business model, rapid and disciplined store expansion, strong same-store sales growth, and solid cash generation. During the fourth quarter, we continued to scale the business while improving our value proposition for customers and strengthening our operating infrastructure. Let me briefly highlight a few key results from the quarter and the full year. During the quarter, we opened 184 net new stores, bringing the full-year total to a record 574 net openings, which exceeded our guidance of 500 to 550 stores. We also opened two new distribution centers in the quarter, for a total of four new ones in 2025. Same-store sales grew 0.6% in the fourth quarter versus the same quarter last year, and increased 18.3% for the full year versus last year. Total revenues in the fourth quarter increased 34% to MXN22 billion. For the full year, revenues grew 36% to MXN78 billion. In the fourth quarter, reported EBITDA was MXN79 million. Excluding non-cash share-based compensation and a one-time asset write-off, EBITDA increased 23% to MXN1.2 billion. Eduardo will provide more detail on the write-off later in the call. For the full year, reported EBITDA was MXN1.2 billion. Excluding non-cash share-based compensation and the asset write-off, EBITDA increased 30% to MXN4.4 billion. Finally, for the twelve months ending December 2025, cash flow generated from operating activity…

Thank you, Anthony. Good morning, everyone. Sales expenses as a percentage of revenue declined from 11.7% to 10.5% year over year in 2025. While 2024 included one-time charges related to depreciation and amortization, which explains part of the change, in 2025 we also saw operating leverage across most expense lines. Admin expenses excluding share-based payments increased by 35 basis points primarily due to investments in new regions and additional talent to support our growth. With respect to share-based payment expense, these charges are non-cash and already reflected in our fully diluted share count. Additional details are available in the appendix of this earnings release where we also provide projections for this non-cash expense. EBITDA for 2025, excluding non-cash share-based payment expense and the asset write-off, increased 23.5% to MXN1.2 billion, driven primarily by strong sales growth. The adjusted EBITDA margin declined 48 basis points year over year. In 2025, we also recorded a one-time charge related to the write-off of an accounts receivable balance of MXN230 million. This was associated with a termination of our relationship with the provider of our payment terminals. The balance represents the receivable outstanding at the time of termination. We decided to record a full write-off. We note that payment processing has since been migrated to terminals operated by one of the top three banks in Mexico, with no disruptions to our operations. We are pursuing all available legal actions in connection with this matter. Adjusted EBITDA for the full year 2025 increased 30% to PHP4.4 billion. Over the last four years, EBITDA has grown at a CAGR of 42%, reflecting the strength of our business model. Even though we do not manage this business to an EBITDA target, you can see in this slide that our EBITDA margin naturally increases over time as a…

Thank you for joining us today. We operate a high-growth business model that has proven to be robust and resilient across economic cycles. It offers very attractive unit economics, generates cash, and becomes more competitive as it continues to scale. We remain very confident in the long-term opportunity ahead for BBB Foods Inc., and look forward to updating you again next quarter. We will now start the Q&A session. So please go ahead, operator. Thank you.

We will now conduct a Q&A session with Anthony Hatoum and Eduardo Pizzuto. If you would like to ask a question, please press the raise your hand button located at the bottom of the screen. If you are connected via telephone, please dial 9. We remind you that all lines have been placed on mute. When it is your turn to ask a question, you will be given permission to speak. You will then be able to unmute yourself to ask your question. Our first question comes from Alvaro Garcia. Please state your company name and ask your question.

Hi, gentlemen. Thanks for the space. I have two questions. The first one, on stock-based compensation. We noted the increase mainly in options for the new strike price of $35. I was wondering if, you know, relative to last year where we sort of got two waves of announcements, one alongside 2Q results, if that was the award that we will see for all of 2025 or we should expect more awards throughout the rest of the year? And my second question is on the new unit economics. You just mentioned, Eduardo, that the sales per store consider sort of the new initiatives from new CapEx. So the close to MXN30 million per store material increase relative to the previous version for year three, does that not consider the new initiatives? Is it just the return itself? Thank you.

Alvaro, hi. So in terms of the options that you are mentioning, what you are seeing in the numbers is what was granted in all of 2025. So you should not expect an additional number for 2025. I am assuming that was your question.

Correct. That was my question.

Okay. Perfect. So, no, that is the total number that was granted, and you can see in the appendices the exact numbers that were granted in December 2025. Then on your second, on the unit economics, yes, Alvaro, we are actually very conservative about updating this chart. Because even though we are upgrading the sales curve, and that is purely based on our most recent vintages, the performance of it. Let me tie it back to the spaghetti chart. If you look at 2024, for instance, that little dot that you see in the chart, that is the performance of 2024. So we are taking not only 2024, but also earlier vintages. We constructed that sales curve, and it is exactly what it is doing. So we are not assuming as of now any incremental sales because of the additional equipment that we are installing in the new stores.

Great. Thank you very much. Congrats on results.

Our next question comes from Melissa Bayon. Please state your company name and ask your question.

Hi. This is Melissa Bayon from Bank of America. Hi, Anthony and Eduardo. Thanks for taking my question. I would like to better understand the traffic and ticket dynamics. What is the trajectory of transaction counts as stores mature? And are you happy with the 2.5% growth in stores open five years or more? And then Anthony mentioned that the increase in average ticket is primarily coming from more items per basket versus price. But can you maybe quantify the components? I imagine a higher share of private label is deflationary. And then I think related to that, how should we think about product innovation this year and how are some of the newer items performing versus earlier vintages?

Many questions, so I will try to break it down. Let us start with same-store sales. Absolutely right, two-thirds of the growth is explained by volume and one-third by average price. And average price in large driven by a better mix with inflation contributing very little. The 2.5% increase mentioned in ticket for relatively old stores is fantastic. You know, every time we think that one of our older vintages is maturing, we find that we are still attracting new clients. And the increase of ticket size is extremely positive in a sense that every time we manage to get a client to buy one more new product that they were not buying before, that is a huge jump in productivity and in sales. You had other questions, if you do not mind repeating them?

Sure. I wanted to understand a little bit more about your innovation and how we should think about that this year. So how are maybe some of the newer launches, new SKUs or items performing versus past introductions?

In general, let me just step back by saying that we remain relatively low SKU business. So across our whole portfolio, you are seeing innovation and you are seeing new products being introduced. And at any point in time, we are testing about 60 different new products and some of them work and some of them do not. So by the time we introduce a new product, there is an extremely high probability that we know that it is going to work and work very well. So what you see in the store is all accretive and very positive. To bring it a little bit more down to earth, you will see innovation in cosmetics, you will see innovation in frozen, we have been the pioneers in, you know, democratizing frozen in Mexico, a lot of innovation in ice creams, a lot of innovation in personal health care, in dairy, in drinks and beverage. So you know, I am very, I would say I am very positive that this trend will continue, and you will continue to see new things being introduced. And at any time you walk into one of our stores, you will see a number of new products being tested. Private label will continue to very naturally increase its participation in our sales. It is something organic and that happens and that has always been happening and continues to happen as you see in the latest numbers. You are absolutely right, it is deflationary because on average our private labels are significantly cheaper than, let us say, the more commercial brands that they replace. But they more than make up for it by volumes. And internally of course we measure units sold and I can say that same-store sales growth when measured by units is extremely healthy.

Great. Thanks so much.

Our next question comes from Froylan Mendez. Please state your company name and ask your question.

Thank you, Anthony and Eduardo. Fernandez from JPMorgan. Two questions. First, on the stock-based compensation, the new grants that were given. According to our calculations, they make up around 2% of the outstanding shares. This compares to closer to 1% in the previous year package. Could you help us understand where the delta is coming from? Is this just in terms of the growth of the company, more people getting shares or it is just the same amount of people but getting more shares, that would be very important for us to understand. And secondly, we look at EBITDA after leases. And at Kingstar numbers, the results were a little bit lower than expected. Wanted to understand the timing of the openings in the fourth quarter. If most of the openings in the fourth quarter were during the latter part of the quarter, then it means that the ramp-up impacts in a higher extent the margin. And if the stores that you are opening in the last part of this year are already under this new format with more fridges, larger GLA that can lead to higher leasing costs that came above our estimates. Thank you so much.

Let me start off with EBITDA, your second question. Actually, our fourth quarter was a fantastic quarter in the sense that, I mean, compared to any other quarter that you have seen in the past, we opened 184 stores and two new distribution centers. So we significantly accelerated the pace in Q4. So what that translates into in the numbers that you are coming up to is a lower than expected EBITDA. It is just because of that. It is just the sheer size of the volume of stores that we opened in the quarter and also the two new distribution centers on top of the two that we opened in Q3. So a total of four. If you are comparing that to Q4 of last year, that makes a significant increase. So that is where, as you have asked the question on the pace of openings, that is what explains the spike in lease payments and leases. You had a second question on EBITDA, and I will take the share-based in a minute. But you had another question on EBITDA.

Yep. If part of the increasing leasing cost also relates to the new type of store that you are starting to open, larger with bigger fridges or more doors inside the store. If this is also part of this incremental leasing cost, going forward, probably.

So the leasing—let us break that in two for leasing—is building, which is stores and DCs, and then the rest of the leases that we have, which is equipment. So that entire number is leases. I am not sure if you are checking only building or you are also taking the rest.

Take both. We take both.

Okay. So taking both, yes, you will see that we have the equipment for the distribution centers. So we have a cold room, frozen room, and also some additional cars. So that explains, again, the spike on leases for the fourth quarter. So we are gradually migrating into the topics that I just mentioned in our unit economics. So you will see that our stores this year will have—we will move from a 10-door room, for instance, to a 15-door cold room, and additional freezer. So we are migrating to that. But the vast majority of the change, Froy, comes from just the volume, the number of stores that we opened in Q4, and the distribution centers as well.

Thank you, Eduardo. And then I know you had a question on share-based payment. Can you repeat that for me, please?

Of course. If we take the incremental number of units granted at the end of last year, and divide that by the outstanding shares, it is around 2% of shares outstanding, let us say. And if I compare that to the last year granting package, it was closer to 1%. Trying to understand where the delta is coming from, if this relates to the growth of the company. So you are including more people getting this package or is it more same people receiving more units of the package?

I will take that one. It is simply growth and increase in the number of people. And, you know, let me step back by saying that we can make all of these numbers disappear by giving out more cash. But we have found that over time, this option plan that we have has been the best investment with the best return on investment that we have seen because it allows us to attract the kind of profile of people with a can-do attitude and an entrepreneurial attitude which you see reflected in our numbers. It allows us to retain talent when everybody is trying to poach your talent. It aligns incentives with shareholders and very simply put, it explains a lot of the attitude and can-do aspect of our business that is simply reflected in the numbers as a consequence. So we are very likely to continue with this plan and even expand it in line with our growth and the number of people that we are bringing onboard. But again, there are options. So somebody else mentioned the strike price of these options. And when our share price is below, they have zero impact. And we all hope that our share price goes above, and I am very happy to take the dilution that comes with that when that happens.

Fair. Thank you very much. Just as a follow-up. So that 2%, let us say, implied dilution, that is the level that we should expect going forward? Or that can come down at some point?

I know. I would say, Froy, dilution is 100% tied to where our share price is going to be. So depending on what your projection of our share price is, it could be that number. Currently the last grant is almost with zero dilution to our outstanding base. A little bit of a difficult question to answer, but Eduardo will put in some numbers as to historical perspective here.

If you look at the appendices, what I would suggest is if you look at the appendices that we published, on appendix one you see our calculation of fully diluted shares. And this is something that we have been publishing for three quarters. And in this case, we ran an exercise on an illustrative share price of $35. And you will see that if you compare that to what we did in Q3, for instance, you will see that the dilution as we see it is less than 1%. So it is a bit tricky, the 1.9% that you mentioned, because whatever number you are putting in terms of share price will, the dilution will come or not, or less or more dilution come in. But that is the way we look at it.

Yeah. No. Fair. I was mentioning numbers based on number of shares, RSUs plus the stock options, divided by the number of shares without taking the strike price, which I understand.

I think it is unfair to not look at the strike price because the strike price is super important in terms of motivating people and aligning incentives. For what it is worth, also mentioning just now that we are on the topic, RSUs, you have to think of them in lieu of cash. You know, I would give all day RSUs instead of cash. They vest and they align incentives.

Very fair points. Thank you, thank you for—

Our next question comes from Irma Sgarz. Please state your company name and ask your question.

Yes. Hi. Thanks for taking my question. It is Irma Sgarz from Goldman Sachs. Just a quick follow-up on sort of the trajectory for operating leverage into 2026. The G&A line excluding share-based compensation, of course, obviously took a step up in 2025, and I understand that there were some structural investments that you made both in the headquarter team, but also in some of the more down oriented teams or in the stores, although I think most of that should be going through sales. But to support the overall structure, I guess, of the build-out. So I was hoping to just understand, is it fair to think that G&A expenses just after this huge step up that we saw in 2025, the growth should be significantly below the top line growth that you are targeting and thereby releasing, you know, that operating leverage that I think is so important for the longer-term margin trajectory for the business. So that is my first question. And then if you can just perhaps shed some light on what you are seeing in terms of your ability to, or sort of the direction of your geographic build-out in sourcing these new 600 or so stores that you are to open in 2026. And I was intrigued that you mentioned more, sort of a little bit more CapEx incrementally, not just on equipment, but also on the work around building single standing stores, and I was trying to understand that a little bit better. If that is a question of sort of pushing into new areas or availability of real estate. If you can just dig a little bit further into that comment. Thank you.

Hi, Irma. Good morning. In terms of the leverage that you are talking about, and I heard on more on the admin side, as you know, we do not provide any specific guidance on either margin or SG&A. But I think what you should expect is that over the long run, and as we have mentioned before, we should expect admin expenses to decline as a percentage of sales. Having said that, we will continue to retain talent and increase our talent pool to support the growth that we are seeing for the next years. We do see tons of opportunities in the next three to five years, and we want to make sure that we have the talent in place for that growth to happen. Specifically, again, on admin expenses, we continue to hire people on the IT front and on many different levels of the company. So specifically for 2026, at this point, I will not give you any specific answer on that one. But over the long term, yes, for sure, that number will come down as a percentage of sales.

Regarding real estate and expansion, our strategy has not changed. Stretch and we identify where we are and the runway is completely open. There is no impediment to our foreseeable growth in terms of store openings. As Eduardo mentioned, our stores are bigger than in the past and therefore cost a little bit more to build. And fundamentally, we are putting new equipment in there, mostly in refrigeration. And very conservatively, are not reflecting any expected sales growth that you would get by putting more refrigeration equipment. And this is likely. The number that we have shared in unit economics is the number you can expect to see with a good degree of confidence for 2026, irrespective of the mix of whether we are opening stores that are built literally from scratch, or taking a space and rehabbing it.

Understood. Thank you. Thank you, Irma.

Our next question comes from Andrew Rubin. Please state your company name and ask your question.

Hi. Andrew Rubin at Morgan Stanley here. Thanks very much for the question. I think a lot of the items have been answered already. So maybe if we just give a bit of a look back. So 2025, you delivered same-store sales that was a bit above 18%. This was above 2024 and above what you are guiding for in 2026. So I am curious if you could tell us any specifics of what happened in a year like 2025. What is the difference between a year where you are getting kind of a low teens comp versus one that is 18, if it is anything related to the macro or innovation within the stores. I understand the general parts of the model, of course, but anything as we look back just to better understand the differences in comp trends between the years.

Well, that 18% exceeded our expectations. And as you correctly said, the guidance at that time was 11% to 14% and suddenly we do 18%, which is a stratospheric number. So coming back a little bit more to reality, you know, the 15% and 16%, which are amazing numbers still, I would say that I would not see too much into it. If we continue to grow at the guided same-store sales, I think we are going to have another fantastic year. Yeah, but sorry, I cannot tell you exactly why we hit 18% on that one quarter.

Okay. Fair enough. Thanks.

Thank you, Andrew.

Our next question comes from Héctor Maya. Please state your company name and ask your question.

Hector, you disappeared. Héctor Maya: Yeah. Sorry. Thank you. Can you hear me now?

Yes. Héctor Maya: Perfect. Thank you. Sorry about that. About the space for refrigeration, and the larger sizes, the larger size of the stores from your update on unit economics, to what extent is this related to a potential introduction of fresh categories in the future? Or is this related to something else? And the new stores, how larger would they be now, and what was behind the decision to build some of these stores from scratch? That will be the first one.

So let me talk about store size. It has been fairly consistent for the last two years, but definitely bigger than stores we had ten years ago. So when I say slightly bigger, they are slightly bigger and that affects CapEx. We have adjusted our mix for 2026, assuming conservatively that we would have more stores built from scratch. That has, you know, everything derives from our real estate master plan, so we take a good look and say, where do we think we want to open stores? And then we come up with an estimate of how many stores we believe are going to be built from scratch versus, you know, taking an existing space and refurbishing it. And we come up with this number. There is no magic to it except it is an expectation based on serious planning. And we come up with as good an estimate as we can come up with, and we make it conservative. Now in terms of equipment within the store, yes, you will find more refrigeration equipment because we are expanding in our categories of refrigerated and frozen. And it has nothing to do with fresh, which is a completely different category, which, as you know, we are testing. So there is, as I mentioned earlier, across all categories we are seeing innovation and we are seeing growth. While respecting the core tenets of being a hard discounter. Limited SKUs, very high rotation SKUs, focus on private labels, lots of value for money in everything we offer. That you will see consistently in everything we offer. Great value for money to our customers, that in turn is very likely to support robust same-store sales. Héctor Maya: Thank you. Thank you very much, Anthony. Very clear. And the last one on the impact of the new provider and the payment processing. Now that you switched to one of the top three banks in Mexico, how do the transaction fees and commercial terms with the new bank compare to the previous provider? And should we expect this to impact sales expenses going forward?

No. Not at all. We are even more competitive. Héctor Maya: Understand. Thank you. Thank you very much.

Thank you, Hector.

Our next question comes from Antonio Hernandez. Please state your company name and ask your question.

Hi. Good morning. This is Antonio Hernandez from Actinver. Just a quick one regarding the new regions where you are expanding with new distribution centers, new stores, and so on. Which ones excite you the most? Where do you see more opportunities? And maybe on the other hand, which ones may be, which of the new regions are maybe underperforming your previous expectations?

Thanks.

At the risk of sounding boring, we see extremely consistent performance across all our regions. And fundamentally, when we ask ourselves why, we are selling basic goods. And customer behavior does not change much when it comes to basic good consumptions. So we are excited across the board with every store we open. We make sure that it is going to be successful. Otherwise, we do not bother opening a store. And what you will see is a consistent performance for 2026 versus 2025 with possibly robust same-store sales growth and very likely across all vintages, you will continue to see growth. Real growth.

Thanks. Congrats on that.

Thank you, Antonio.

That is all the time we have for the Q&A session today. I would like to hand the call back over to Anthony Hatoum for his closing remarks.

Thank you all for participating today, investors, analysts, and even competitors who are listening in. We have a very strong, robust company which has year after year shown that it can grow and grow without hiccups. At the rates we are growing, it is quite an achievement. We expect that to continue. We expect our value proposition to customers to continue offering more, and therefore, again, this virtuous cycle of better value proposition, increased sales, is very likely to continue for the foreseeable future. This is a business that is not, I am not going to say anti-cyclical, but extremely robust through cycles. And fundamentally at the core of it all is an amazing team that executes flawlessly quarter after quarter. Thank you again for participating, and I look forward to talking to you next quarter.

That concludes today’s call. You may now disconnect.
