FEMSA Forward

Focused Leadership in Retail & Beverages

FEMSA achieves two key milestones in the execution of FEMSA Forward

Monterrey, Mexico, June 6, 2023 — Fomento Económico Mexicano, S.A.B. de C.V. (“FEMSA” or the “Company”) (NYSE: FMX; BMV: FEMSAUBD, FEMSAUB) announced that it has reached two key milestones in certain transactions set forth in its FEMSA Forward strategy, as laid out in February of this year:

As announced in February of this year, FEMSA Forward laid the path for FEMSA to maximize long-term value creation by becoming a highly focused platform built on its three core business verticals: Retail, Coca-Cola FEMSA, and Digital. To achieve such a structure, FEMSA committed to several important initiatives, and last week FEMSA successfully completed two of them under favorable terms and conditions, generating significant value for FEMSA.

Daniel Rodríguez Cofré, FEMSA’s Chief Executive Officer, commented:

“Less than four months ago and following the definition and approval of FEMSA’s long-range plan, we communicated our conviction that the best way to continue creating value at FEMSA is through a structure that focuses solely on our core business verticals, where we have built leading platforms, and that have proven capabilities, financial strength, and dynamic avenues for growth.

Last week, we announced the completion of two important steps on the path to that structure. Our team executed these complex transactions with determination, speed, and excellence, realizing positive results for our shareholders and moving us closer to our objective.”

FEMSA’s management team continues to work diligently to execute the rest of the strategy as directed by FEMSA’s Board of Directors, while continuing the strong operating momentum and solid performance seen through the beginning of the year.
