2025 ANNUAL LETTER TO STOCKHOLDERS
DEAR FELLOW
W STO
OCKHOLD
DERS,
2025 was a year of transition following the November 2024 transformational combination that
created Primo Brands, the largest branded bottled water company in the U.S. with annual Net Sales
Revenue of $6.7 billion and strong free cash ow. Our team worked with urgency and intensity to
integrate two similarly-sized organizations, create a One Primo culture, and position the business for
long-term success.
While the year was not without challenges, I am encouraged by the momentum we built as 2025
progressed. The foundational elements of our investment thesis remain rmly intact: we compete
in an attractive, growing category; we own a differentiated portfolio of leading brands; we bene t
from an advantaged, coast to coast route to market; and we believe we have clear levers to drive
sustainable top line growth, margin expansion, and free cash ow over time. We enter 2026 with
continued con dence in the long-term value creation potential of our company.
Integration Progress and Business Recovery
The creation of Primo Brands merged two businesses with complementary assets, brands, and
capabilities. As we moved through integration, we experienced disruption.
Over the course of 2025, our teams acted quickly to identify root causes and implement corrective
actions. We stabilized product availability, improved warehouse and route execution, aligned
operating metrics, and continued to restore service performance toward historical norms. These
improvements translated into better customer experiences, improving retention trends, and a steadily
strengthening performance trajectory as the year progressed. Importantly, these actions reaffirm our
con dence that the long term industrial logic of this combination and the associated opportunity
remain compelling and achievable.
In 2026, we will continue to elevate service, rebuild trust, and fully embed a One Primo operating
culture as we enter the next phase of our journey.
Con dence in the Bottled Water Category
We are proud to lead in a category that continues to demonstrate strength and resilience. Bottled
water remains the largest beverage category in the United States by volume and continues to bene t
from long term consumer tailwinds tied to health, wellness, and everyday hydration. Municipal water
costs continue to rise, consumers increasingly value quality and reliability, and demand for healthy
hydration remains durable across economic environments.
Within this attractive category, Primo Brands is exceptionally well positioned. We are a leader in
healthy hydration and the number one player in U.S. retail branded bottled water by volume share.
Our portfolio spans national, regional, value, and premium brands enabling us to meet consumers
wherever, however, and whenever they choose to hydrate.

2025 PRIMO BRANDS CORPORATION ANNUAL REPORT
Strong Brands and Retail Momentum
One of the de ning strengths of Primo Brands is the depth and breadth of our brand portfolio.
In 2025, our retail business demonstrated notable resilience and momentum. We achieved
meaningful distribution gains, expanded points of availability, and continued to grow both volume
and value share. Premium brands, including Saratoga and Mountain Valley, delivered particularly
strong growth, supported by improving awareness, expanding household penetration, and focused
brand investment.
We see signi cant runway ahead for these brands as we invest in capacity, marketing, and
executional excellence. At the same time, our iconic and regional spring water brands continue to
provide scale, loyalty, and dependable performance across channels.
Synergy Capture, Earnings Growth, and Financial Discipline
A central pillar of the Primo Brands combination is synergy capture. Throughout 2025, we made
tangible progress against our cost, productivity, and network optimization initiatives, and we remain
con dent in our ability to achieve our targeted run rate synergies. These actions, combined with
disciplined expense management and improving operations, supported meaningful adjusted
EBITDA growth and margin expansion despite top line disruption during the year.
Cash generation remained strong, enabling continued investment in the business while also
supporting balance sheet health. Our nancial priorities remain clear: restore sustainable organic
growth, expand margins over time through productivity and pricing capabilities, generate
Returning Capital to Stockholders
Returning capital to stockholders is a core component of our value creation strategy. In 2025, we
reinforced this commitment through stock repurchases and dividend growth. We believe our stock
represents an attractive long term investment, and our capital allocation framework balances
reinvestment in growth, debt reduction, and stockholder returns.
Looking Ahead
As we move into 2026, my focus and that of our leadership team is straightforward: complete the
integration journey, return the business to long-term sustainable growth, and unlock the full potential
of Primo Brands. We intend to continue to invest behind our brands, elevate service and execution,
strengthen our culture, and deliver against our nancial commitments.
I want to thank our associates for their resilience, dedication, and pride in serving our customers each
day. I also want to thank our customers for their trust and our stockholders for their continued support
as we build an even stronger, faster, and more focused Primo Brands.
We are con dent in our path forward and excited about the opportunities ahead.
Sincerely,
Eric J. Foss
