Revenue: Full-year revenue fell 2.4% while Q4 improved sequentially, with total Q4 revenue down 0.7% and Unimarc up 1.9% (0.9% same-store).
Margins: Gross margin expanded 150 bps in 2025 (90 bps in Q4), lifting gross profit despite lower sales; operating pressures kept EBITDA down.
Expenses: Operating expenses rose 5.6% in 2025 (5.5% in Q4) driven by a 9% minimum wage increase and a 17% rise in electricity costs; company expects expense growth in 2026 to be in line with inflation.
EBITDA & Profit: EBITDA declined 6.1% for the year and 6.4% in Q4; net income rose 29.5% for the year (helped by a CLP 60 billion pre-tax nonoperating gain) but fell 27% in Q4.
Capital allocation: 3-year CapEx guide of CLP 370 billion (about CLP 120 billion in 2026), 55% allocated to growth; share buyback authorized and additional sale-and-leaseback transactions announced.
Balance sheet & cash: End-2025 cash CLP 85 billion (started CLP 155 billion); net financial liabilities to EBITDA 5.2x (3.6x adjusted); refinancing needs for 2026 minimal (CLP 11 billion in bond maturities).
Strategy & execution: Multi-format simplification completed (3 formats), accelerated conversions to Alvi and Super10; new stores outperform plan and conversions expected to mature in ~12 months.
Outlook: Management expects EBITDA margin near 8–8.5% in 2026, with a return toward a 9% long-term target, driven by top-line recovery and more moderate expense growth.
