Highlights

Second quarter revenue of $240.1 million, a 15.2% increase compared to the prior year period, with a constant currency revenue increase of 12.7% compared to the prior year period.
Gross margin in the second quarter was 33.9%, which is a 1.4 percentage point increase compared to the prior year period.
Second quarter net loss attributable to shareholders of the parent was $31.3 million, compared to a net loss attributable to shareholders of the parent of $55.9 million in the prior year period.
Second quarter Adjusted EBITDA was $0.4 million, which is an improvement of $4.0 million compared to an Adjusted EBITDA loss of $3.6 million in the prior year period.

Outlook

The Company’s outlook is as follows (including an updated 2026 revenue outlook):
- Constant currency revenue growth is now expected to be in the range of +8% to +10% (from +3% to +5% previously). Based on recent foreign exchange rates, the full-year impact of foreign exchange is expected to be a tailwind to revenue growth by approximately 200 to 250 basis points; up from the prior expectation of 100 to 200 basis points.
- Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be in the range of $25 million to $35 million (unchanged).
- Capital expenditures are expected to be in the range of $20 million to $30 million (unchanged).

This outlook assumes that the impact from the conflict in the Middle East does not worsen from what is expected today.

Second Quarter 2026 Results

Revenue increased $31.7 million, or 15.2% to $240.1 million for the second quarter ended June 30, 2026, compared to $208.4 million for the prior year period. Excluding a foreign currency exchange tailwind of $5.2 million, revenue for the second quarter was $234.9 million, or an increase of 12.7% compared to the prior year period. The growth in constant currency revenue was driven by another quarter of accelerating growth in Europe & International, a subsequent quarter of accelerating growth in North America driven mainly by the retail channel, and volume growth in Greater China despite increased competition in the foodservice channel. Sold volume for the second quarter of 2026 increased 11.2% to 156.1 million liters compared to 140.4 million liters in the second quarter of 2025. Produced finished goods volume for the second quarter of 2026 was 153.6 million liters compared to 142.8 million liters for the second quarter of 2025.

Gross profit was $81.4 million for the second quarter of 2026 compared to $67.6 million for the second quarter of 2025. Gross profit margin was 33.9% in the second quarter of 2026, an increase of 143 basis points compared to the prior period. The margin improvement compared to the second quarter of 2025 was due to improvements in supply chain efficiency, channel mix in North America, and market and product mix in Europe & International, partially offset by the impact of the conflict in the Middle East on energy and logistics costs.

Research and development expenses in the second quarter of 2026 was $4.6 million, which was flat compared to prior year period.

Selling, general and administrative expenses in the second quarter of 2026 increased $10.6 million to $94.7 million compared to $84.1 million in the prior year period. The increase was driven by foreign currency exchange headwinds, increased branding and advertising spending, higher customer distribution costs due to increased sold volumes, and increased inflation driven by the conflict in the Middle East, partially offset by continued actions to reduce general and administrative expenses.

Other operating income and (expenses), net for the second quarter of 2026 was an income of $0.6 million comprised primarily of net foreign exchange gains and grants, offset by $0.8 million in costs for our strategic review of the Greater China segment. Other operating income and (expenses), net for the prior year period was an expense of $1.0 million comprised primarily of $1.4 million in costs for the Company’s strategic review of the Greater China segment.

Finance income and (expenses), net for the second quarter of 2026 was an expense of $13.4 million comprised primarily of net interest expenses of $13.9 million, offset by fair value gain on Convertible Notes of $2.3 million. The finance income and (expenses), net for the prior year period was an expense of $31.9 million comprised primarily of net interest expenses of $14.9 million, fair value losses on Convertible Notes of $8.6 million, and net foreign exchange losses of $7.8 million.

Net loss attributable to shareholders of the parent was $31.3 million for the second quarter of 2026 compared to a loss of $55.9 million in the prior year period.

Adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter of 2026 was $0.4 million, compared to a loss of $3.6 million in the prior year period. The improvement in Adjusted EBITDA was primarily a result of higher gross profit.

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Constant Currency Revenue are non-IFRS financial measures defined under "Non-IFRS financial measures". Please see above revenue at constant currency table and "Reconciliation of IFRS to Non-IFRS Financial measures" at the end of this press release.

Europe & International

Europe & International revenue increased $24.9 million, or 21.0%, to $143.1 million for the second quarter of 2026, compared to $118.2 million in the prior year period. Excluding a foreign currency exchange tailwind of $3.6 million, Europe & International revenue for the second quarter was $139.5 million, or an increase of 18.0%. For the second quarter of 2026, the increase in revenue was primarily due to volume growth of 16.9%, mainly driven by growth in the Barista products. Approximately 77% of Europe & International revenue was from the retail channel for the second quarter of 2026 compared to 79% in the prior year period. The sold finished goods volume for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 amounted to 94.8 and 81.1 million liters, respectively.

Europe & International Adjusted EBITDA increased $0.7 million to $25.0 million for the second quarter of 2026 compared to $24.3 million in the prior year period. The improvement in Adjusted EBITDA was primarily driven by higher gross profit driven by higher revenue and continued supply chain productivity, partially offset by higher selling, general and administration expenses, mainly explained by higher branding and advertising costs and foreign currency exchange headwinds.

North America

North America revenue increased $3.7 million, or 5.9%, to $66.9 million for the second quarter of 2026, compared to $63.2 million in the prior year period. The sold finished goods volume for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 amounted to 36.2 million and 35.5 million liters, respectively. The 1.9% volume increase was mainly driven by growth in the retail channel. Approximately 63% of North America revenue was from the retail channel in the second quarter of 2026 compared to 59% in the prior year period.

North America Adjusted EBITDA increased $3.1 million to $0.7 million for the second quarter of 2026, compared to a loss of $2.4 million in the prior year period. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to higher gross profit.

Greater China

Greater China revenue increased $3.1 million, or 11.6%, to $30.1 million for the second quarter of 2026, compared to $27.0 million in the prior year period. Excluding a foreign currency exchange tailwind of $1.6 million in the quarter, Greater China revenue for the quarter was $28.5 million or an increase of 5.6%. The Greater China segment growth was primarily driven by increase in the retail channel and partially offset by a decline in the foodservice channel due to higher competition. Approximately 54% of Greater China revenue was from the foodservice channel for the second quarter of 2026 compared to 62% in the prior year period. The sold finished goods volume for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 amounted to 25.0 million and 23.7 million liters, respectively.

Greater China Adjusted EBITDA loss increased $0.8 million for a loss of $1.5 million in the second quarter of 2026, compared to a loss of $0.6 million in the prior year period. The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA is mainly explained by higher selling expenses.

Corporate

Oatly’s corporate expense, which consists of general costs not allocated to the segments, was $26.9 million in the second quarter of 2026, a decrease of $0.5 million compared to the prior year period, driven by continued actions to reduce general and administrative expenses but partially offset by foreign exchange headwinds. Adjusted EBITDA in the second quarter of 2026 was a loss of $23.8 million compared to a loss of $24.8 million in the prior year period.

Balance Sheet and Cash Flows

As of June 30, 2026, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $44.6 million and total outstanding debt of $517.8 million consisting of Nordic Bonds, Convertible Notes and liabilities to credit institutions. Net cash used in operating activities was $1.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $15.0 million during the prior year period, which was primarily driven by improved operating results.

Capital expenditures were $10.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, which was flat compared to the prior year period.

Free cash flow was an outflow of $12.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 compared to an outflow of $25.7 million during the prior year period. The improvement in free cash flow was driven by decreased net cash flows used in operating activities.

Free Cash Flow is a non-IFRS liquidity measure defined under "Non-IFRS financial measures." Please see "Reconciliation of IFRS to Non-IFRS Financial measures" at the end of this press release.

Strategic Review of Greater China Business

The Company continues its strategic review of the Company’s Greater China business.

While there is no definitive timetable for completing the strategic review, the Company expects to complete the strategic review within 2026. The Company does not intend to provide further updates unless and until the Board of Directors has approved a specific course of action or determines that additional disclosure is appropriate or required. The Company cautions that there can be no assurances that the process will result in any transaction or strategic change.

Outlook

Based on the Company’s assessment of the current operating environment and the actions it is taking, the Company is raising its 2026 outlook for constant-currency revenue and reiterating its outlook for Adjusted EBITDA and capital expenditures.

Constant currency revenue growth is now expected to be in the range of +8% to +10% (from +3% to +5% previously). Based on recent foreign exchange rates, the full-year impact of foreign exchange is expected to be a tailwind to revenue growth by approximately 200 to 250 basis points; up from the prior expectation of 100 to 200 basis points.
Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be in the range of $25 million to $35 million (unchanged).
Capital expenditures are expected to be in the range of $20 million to $30 million (unchanged).

The Company’s outlook continues to include the expected results of the Greater China segment. As previously noted, there continue to be significant macroeconomic uncertainty and other geopolitical uncertainties and this outlook assumes that the impact from the conflict in the Middle East does not worsen from what is expected today.

The Company cannot provide a reconciliation of constant currency revenue growth or Adjusted EBITDA guidance to the nearest comparable corresponding IFRS metric without unreasonable efforts due to difficulty in predicting certain items excluded from these non-IFRS measures. The items necessary to reconcile are not within Oatly’s control, may vary greatly between periods and could significantly impact future financial results.

Forward-looking statements are neither promises nor guarantees, but involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected, including, without limitation: we have a history of losses, and we may be unable to achieve or sustain profitability, including due to elevated inflation and increased costs for transportation, energy, and materials; our future business, financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected by reduced or limited availability of oats and other raw materials and ingredients, which meet our quality standards, that our limited number of suppliers are able to sell to us; a failure to obtain necessary capital when needed on acceptable terms, or at all, may force us to delay, limit, reduce or terminate our product manufacturing and development and other operations; the primary components of all our products are manufactured in our production facilities, and damage or disruption at these facilities has in the past harmed, and may in the future harm, our business; our brand or reputation may be harmed due to real or perceived quality, food safety, nutrition or sustainability issues with our products, which could have an adverse effect on our business, reputation, financial condition and results of operations; food safety and food-borne illness incidents or other safety concerns have led to product recalls, and may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations by exposing us to lawsuits or regulatory enforcement actions in the future, increasing our operating costs and reducing demand for our product offerings; failure by our suppliers of raw materials or co-manufacturers to comply with food safety, environmental or other laws and regulations, or with the specifications and requirements of our products, may disrupt our supply of products and adversely affect our business; we may not be able to compete successfully in our highly competitive markets; consolidation of customers, the loss of a significant customer or the decrease of sales from a significant customer, could negatively impact our sales and profitability; sales of our oatmilk varieties contribute a significant portion of our revenue and a reduction in such sales would have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations; we continue to pursue largely an asset-light business model blending a heavy reliance on our co-manufacturing partners in addition to in-house capacity expansions where appropriate; our strategic partnerships with our co-manufacturers may not be successful, which could adversely affect our operations and manufacturing strategy; failure by our logistics providers to deliver our products on time, or at all, could result in lost sales; we may not successfully ramp up operations at any of our or our co-manufacturing partners’ facilities, or these facilities may not operate in accordance with our expectations; if we fail to effectively expand our processing, manufacturing and production capacity through existing facilities or acceptable co-manufacturing partners as we continue to grow and scale our business to a steady operating level, our business, financial condition, results of operations and our brand reputation could be harmed; if we fail to develop and maintain our brand, our business could suffer; failure to develop or introduce new products or successfully improve existing products may adversely affect our ability to continue to grow; if we fail to cost-effectively acquire new customers and consumers or retain our existing customers and consumers, or if we fail to derive revenue from our existing customers consistent with our historical performance, our business could be materially adversely affected; consumer preferences for our products are difficult to predict and may change, and, if we are unable to respond quickly to new trends, our business may be adversely affected; if we fail to manage our future growth effectively, including maintenance of our workforce, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially adversely affected; we have recognized impairment charges for long-lived assets and other exit costs in connection with our production facilities, and we may need to recognize further costs in the future, which could adversely impact our business, financial condition and results of operations; we are subject to risks related to sustainability (including environmental, climate change and broader corporate social responsibility matters), which may materially adversely affect our business as a result of lawsuits, regulatory investigations and enforcement actions, complaints concerning our disclosures, impacts on our operations and supply chain (particularly in connection with the physical impacts of climate change), and impacts on our brand and reputation; we rely on information technology systems and any inadequacy, failure or interruption of, or cybersecurity incidents affecting, those systems may harm our reputation and ability to effectively operate our business; a cybersecurity incident or other technology disruptions could negatively impact our business and our relationships with customers; to remain competitive, we believe we will need to adopt artificial intelligence and other machine learning technologies; our customer agreements do not contain long-term commitments and do not require our customers to continue purchasing products from us and this may negatively impact our business or financial condition; we may face difficulties as we expand our operations into countries in which we have no prior operating experience; the strategic review of the Company’s Greater China operations may not be successful; our operations in China could expose us to substantial business, regulatory, political, financial and economic risks; the international nature of our business subjects us to additional global economic and geopolitical risks; if we fail to comply with trade compliance and economic sanctions laws and regulations of the United States (the "U.S."), the EU and other applicable international jurisdictions, it could materially adversely affect our reputation and results of operations; some of our debt agreements contain a floating interest rate component and as a result, an increase in market interest rates will increase our future interest payments under such agreements; our international operations expose us to the risk of fluctuations in currency exchange rates; we maintain cash and cash equivalents at financial institutions, often in amounts exceeding insured limits, and the failure of one or more of these institutions could result in a loss of deposits and adversely affect our liquidity or ability to raise capital; packaging costs are volatile and may rise significantly, which may negatively impact the profitability of our business; fluctuations in our results of operations may impact, and may have a disproportionate effect on, our overall financial condition and results of operations; litigation or legal proceedings could expose us to significant liabilities or costs and have a negative impact on our reputation or business; our estimates of market opportunity and forecasts of market growth may prove to be inaccurate, and even if the market in which we compete achieves the forecasted growth, our business could fail to grow at similar rates, if at all; failure to retain our senior management or to attract, train and retain qualified employees may adversely affect our operations or our ability to grow successfully; if we cannot maintain our company culture or focus on our mission as we grow, our success and our business and competitive position may be harmed; our insurance may not provide adequate levels of coverage against claims or we may be unable to find insurance with sufficient coverage at a reasonable cost; disruptions in the worldwide economy may adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations;

Non-IFRS Financial Measures

We use EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Constant Currency Revenue as non-IFRS financial measures in assessing our operating performance and Free Cash Flow as a non-IFRS liquidity measure, and each in our financial communications.

"EBITDA" is defined as loss for the period adjusted to exclude, when applicable, income tax expense, finance expenses, finance income and depreciation and amortization expense.

"Adjusted EBITDA" is defined as loss for the period adjusted to exclude, when applicable, income tax expense, finance expenses, finance income, depreciation and amortization expense, share-based compensation expense, restructuring costs, costs related to the strategic review of the Greater China business, impacts related to the closure of production facility and non-controlling interests.

Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to loss for the period or any other measure of financial performance calculated and presented in accordance with IFRS. There are a number of limitations related to the use of Adjusted EBITDA rather than loss for the period, which is the most directly comparable IFRS measure. Some of these limitations are:

Adjusted EBITDA excludes depreciation and amortization expense and, although these are non-cash expenses, the assets being depreciated may have to be replaced in the future increasing our cash requirements;
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect interest expense, or the cash required to service our debt, which reduces cash available to us;
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect income tax payments that reduce cash available to us;
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect recurring share-based compensation expense and, therefore, does not include all of our compensation costs;
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect restructuring costs that reduce cash available to us in future periods;
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect costs related to the strategic review of the Greater China business that reduce cash available to us;
Adjusted EBITDA excludes impacts related to the closure of production facility, although some of these may reduce cash available to us in future periods;
Other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently, which reduces its usefulness as a comparative measure.

Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial information provided in accordance with IFRS. Below we have provided a reconciliation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to loss for the period, the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with IFRS, for the periods presented.

"Constant Currency Revenue" is calculated by translating the current year reported revenue amounts into comparable amounts using the prior year reporting period’s average foreign exchange rates which have been provided by a third party. Constant Currency Revenue is a non-IFRS measure and is not a substitute for IFRS measures in assessing our overall financial performance.

Constant currency revenue is used to provide a framework in assessing how our business and geographic segments performed excluding the effects of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations and we believe this information is useful to investors to facilitate comparisons and better identify trends in our business. Above we have provided a reconciliation of revenue as reported to revenue on a constant currency basis for the periods presented.

"Free Cash Flow" is defined as net cash flows used in operating activities less capital expenditures. We believe Free Cash Flow is a useful supplemental financial measure for us and investors in assessing our ability to pursue business opportunities and investments. Free Cash Flow is not a measure of our liquidity under IFRS and should not be considered as an alternative to net cash flows used in operating activities.

Free Cash Flow is a non-IFRS measure and is not a substitute for IFRS measures in assessing our overall financial liquidity. Because Free Cash Flow is not a measurement determined in accordance with IFRS, and is susceptible to varying calculations, it may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures presented by other companies. Free Cash Flow should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for an analysis of our results as reported on our interim condensed consolidated financial statements appearing elsewhere in this document. Below we have provided a reconciliation of Free Cash Flow to net cash flows used in operating activities for the periods presented.
