Third Quarter 2025 Group Figures

MUTTENZ, 30 OCTOBER 2025

Clariant, a sustainability-focused specialty chemical company, today announced third quarter 2025 sales of CHF 906 million, representing a decrease of 3 % in local currency1 versus Q3 2024. Pricing was up 1 %, while volumes were down 4 %. Scope had no impact on the quarter. Sales in Swiss francs declined by 9 % year on year due to continued significant currency headwinds, particularly driven by the US dollar.

Care Chemicals sales decreased by 3 % in local currency versus Q3 2024. Pricing was flat, while volumes decreased by 3 %. Growth was strongest in Mining Solutions and Oil Services, driven by higher volumes. Sales in Personal & Home Care and Crop Solutions were down slightly, with more pronounced declines in Industrial Applications and Base Chemicals. Catalysts sales decreased by 8 % in local currency, with stable pricing and lower volumes, as growth in Specialties was more than offset by declines in the other segments, driven by lower demand, particularly in China. Adsorbents & Additives sales increased by 1 % in local currency, as positive pricing of 3 % more than offset 2 % lower volumes.

In the third quarter of 2025, local currency sales in the Europe, Middle East & Africa region declined by 6 % versus Q3 2024, driven by weaker demand in Europe and Germany in particular. Sales in the Americas decreased by 3 %, as slight growth in the United States was more than offset by declines in Brazil. Sales in Asia-Pacific increased by 1 % in local currency, as growth in India and South Korea more than offset lower sales in China.

Group EBITDA before exceptional items of CHF 162 million increased by 5 % year on year with the corresponding margin of 17.9 % representing a 230-basis point improvement versus 15.6 % in the prior year. This was the result of strong execution of our performance improvement programs in all business units as well as effective price and cost management. Lower raw material costs (- 1 %) were partially offset by increased energy costs (+ 2 %).

Key measures to deliver the targeted CHF 80 million Investor Day savings program by 2027 are being implemented and cumulatively contributed CHF 31 million as of 30 September 2025. These include announced headcount reductions, the closure of two sites and two production lines, and procurement savings. As a result, total cost savings of the Investor Day savings programs in the third quarter of approximately CHF 19 million contributed positively to offset inflation. Restructuring charges of CHF 3 million related to these savings programs were booked during the quarter.

Reported EBITDA for the Group increased by 14 % to CHF 159 million. EBITDA margin of 17.5 % increased by 350 basis points versus 14.0 % reported in the third quarter of 2024, when profitability was impacted by restructuring provisions and the inventory step-up in Lucas Meyer Cosmetics.

Nine Months 2025 Group Figures

In the first nine months of 2025, sales of CHF 2.887 billion were down 1 % in local currency1 and 6 % in Swiss francs. Pricing was flat, while volumes were down 2 %. Scope had an impact of 1 %, reflecting the contribution of Lucas Meyer Cosmetics. The currency impact was - 5 %, particularly driven by the US dollar, the Brazilian real and the Euro.

Care Chemicals sales were flat in local currency and - 2 % organically, with growth in Crop Solutions, Personal & Home Care, and Mining Solutions. In Catalysts, sales decreased by 5 % in local currency as growth in Syngas & Fuels and Ethylene did not offset declines in Propylene and Specialties. Adsorbents & Additives sales increased by 1 % in local currency, as high single-digit growth in Additives offset declines in Adsorbents, especially for renewable oil purification in the United States.

In the first nine months of the year, local currency sales decreased by 1 % in the Europe, Middle East & Africa region, driven by weakness in Germany. Sales increased by 1 % in the Americas due to growth in Brazil and the United States. Sales in Asia declined by 2 % versus the prior year period, as regional growth in countries such as India, South Korea, and Australia could not offset a 10 % decrease in China.

Group EBITDA before exceptional items increased by 4 % against the prior year to CHF 521 million, while the corresponding margin increased by 160 basis points to 18.0 % from 16.4 %. Raw material costs were flat for the first nine months, while energy costs increased by 1 %. The execution of the savings programs resulted in additional cost savings of CHF 31 million in the first nine months of 2025.

Reported EBITDA for the Group decreased by 6 % to CHF 450 million due to restructuring charges of CHF 63 million being booked during the first nine months. Reported EBITDA margin of 15.6 % was flat compared to the same period in 2024.

Sustainability

Clariant’s Scope 1 & 2 total greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions fell to 0.43 million tons in the last twelve months (LTM, September 2024 to September 2025), a decline of 12 % from 0.49 million tons in the full year 2024. The main driver for the GHG reduction in 2025 was a further switch to green electricity. The share of renewable electricity increased from 67 % to 74 % due to green electricity supply contracts and improved market-based emission factors of selected suppliers. The total indirect greenhouse gas emissions for purchased goods and services (Scope 3) were 5 % lower at 2.45 million tons in the last twelve months, compared to 2.58 million tons in the full year 2024, due to changing raw materials toward recycled or biobased raw materials and lower volumes.

In the first nine months of 2025, Clariant achieved a DART (Days Away, Restricted, or Transferred) rate of 0.11 (September 2025 LTM), placing the company in the top quartile of the chemical industry and reflecting the high awareness of and continued commitment to safety, training, and accountability.

Outlook 2025 confirmed

For the full year 2025, Clariant anticipates a moderation in general inflation but no recovery for the chemical industry due to persistent macroeconomic challenges, uncertainties, and risks, which include trade tensions and tariffs. While these tensions continue to be volatile and subject to change, Clariant’s current assessment anticipates a manageable direct cost impact on its performance. Indirectly, however, the ongoing tensions have a negative impact on the global demand environment and consumer sentiment, leading to lower industrial production and demand for durable and semi-durable goods. As a result, and based on the current situation, Clariant expects local currency sales growth to be at the lower end of the 1 – 3 % range for 2025. Sales in Care Chemicals and Adsorbents & Additives are expected to grow slightly, while sales in Catalysts are expected to be slightly below the levels of 2024.

Clariant expects continued profitability improvement in 2025 with an EBITDA margin before exceptional items of between 17 % and 18 %. Exceptional items in 2025 are expected to include restructuring charges of around CHF 75 million. These charges are related to the savings programs announced during the company’s Investor Day in November 2024. These programs are expected to deliver run-rate savings of around CHF 80 million through business unit and corporate actions by the end of 2027, with a significant part of these savings targeted to be achieved already in 2025. Other exceptional items for 2025 are expected to be around CHF 20 million. Clariant therefore continues to expect its reported EBITDA margin for 2025 to be between 15.0 % and 15.5 %. Clariant also expects to make further progress toward the targeted 40 % free cash flow conversion during 2025.

Clariant reiterates its commitment to its medium-term targets, to be achieved by 2027 at the latest: 4 – 6 % local currency sales growth; 19 – 21 % reported EBITDA margin; and around 40 % free cash flow conversion.

Sales

In the third quarter of 2025, sales in the Business Unit Care Chemicals decreased by 3 % in local currency and by 8 % in Swiss francs versus Q3 2024. Pricing was flat and volumes declined by 3 %.

Growth was strongest in Mining Solutions, followed by Oil Services, and in both cases largely driven by higher volumes. Sales in Personal & Home Care were down slightly due to lower volumes, mainly driven by product life cycle phasing, despite continued growth in Lucas Meyer Cosmetics. Crop Solutions sales also declined slightly versus the high comparable of the prior year, when demand recovered after an extended destocking period. Sales in Industrial Applications and Base Chemicals saw more significant declines as volumes in industrial end markets in particular suffered from tariff uncertainties.

Care Chemicals sales in the Europe, Middle East & Africa region as well as the Americas decreased by a mid-single-digit percentage rate as destocking led to lower order volumes. Sales in Asia-Pacific increased at a low single-digit percentage rate as the capacity expansion in Daya Bay, China, drove local volume growth.

In the first nine months of 2025, sales in the Business Unit Care Chemicals were flat in local currency (- 2 % excluding scope) and decreased by 6 % in Swiss francs. Crop Solutions showed the strongest growth, followed by Personal & Home Care and Mining Solutions.

EBITDA Margin

In the third quarter of 2025, EBITDA before exceptional items was stable at CHF 93 million, despite the lower sales. EBITDA margin improved by 150 basis points to 18.9 % from 17.4 % in the prior year due to a positive mix effect, contribution from Lucas Meyer Cosmetics, contributions from the performance improvement programs, and a slight decrease (- 1 %) in raw material prices. Slightly higher energy costs (+ 2 %) weighed on profitability.

Reported EBITDA of CHF 92 million was stable compared to the prior year period, with a corresponding margin of 18.7 % versus 17.2 %.

EBITDA margin before exceptional items for the first nine months of 2025 increased to 19.6 % from 18.9 % in the prior year. Reported EBITDA decreased to CHF 277 million from CHF 313 million, including CHF 29 million of restructuring charges, with the corresponding margin decreasing by 110 basis points to 17.5 % from 18.6 %.

Sales

In the third quarter of 2025, sales in the Business Unit Catalysts decreased by 8 % in local currency and by 16 % in Swiss francs. While pricing was flat, volumes declined by 8 %.

Low double-digit sales growth in Specialties did not offset declines in the other segments. The weak economic environment and utilization rates continuing to trade below long-term averages impacted refill timings for Propylene catalysts in China in particular, leading to a high double-digit percentage rate decline. Sales in Syngas & Fuels (against a strong comparison base) and Ethylene were down by a mid-single digit percentage rate.

Sales decreased by a high double-digit percentage rate in the Europe, Middle East & Africa region, driven by lower sales in Ethylene catalysts. Sales in the Americas increased at a double-digit percentage rate because of project deliveries in Propylene and Ethylene catalysts. In Asia-Pacific, the largest geographic market, sales decreased at a high double-digit percentage rate, as sales of Propylene catalysts in China in particular were below the prior year.

In the first nine months of 2025, sales in the Business Unit Catalysts decreased by 5 % in local currency and by 10 % in Swiss francs. Growth in Syngas & Fuels and Ethylene catalysts did not offset the declines in Propylene and Specialties.

EBITDA Margin

In the third quarter, EBITDA before exceptional items decreased by 13 % to CHF 33 million, representing a margin of 19.3 %. This 60-basis point improvement against the 18.7 % margin of the prior year was driven by effective price and cost management and contributions from performance improvement programs, which more than offset the impact of lower volumes. Raw material prices were flat, while energy prices were slightly higher (+ 2 %) versus the prior year.

Reported EBITDA of CHF 32 million decreased by 14 % compared to the prior year, with a corresponding margin of 18.7 % versus 18.2 %.

EBITDA margin before exceptional items for the first nine months of 2025 increased to 19.6 % from 16.8 % in the prior year due to effective price and cost management and contributions from performance improvement programs. Reported EBITDA was CHF 104 million compared to CHF 106 million, with the corresponding margin increasing by 160 basis points to 18.9 % from 17.3 %.

Sales

In the third quarter of 2025, sales in the Business Unit Adsorbents & Additives increased by 1 % in local currency and decreased by 3 % in Swiss francs. In the Adsorbents segments, sales decreased at a mid-single-digit percentage rate. In the Additives segments, sales increased at a high single-digit percentage rate. For the business unit, pricing was up 3 % while volumes were down 2 %.

In the Europe, Middle East & Africa region, the largest region, sales increased at a low single-digit percentage rate, driven by pricing. In the Americas, sales decreased at a high single-digit percentage rate, as growth in Additives did not fully offset a decline in Adsorbents with volumes impacted by US renewable fuel regulation. Asia-Pacific sales increased at a low double-digit percentage rate, driven by volume growth in both Adsorbents and Additives.

In the first nine months of 2025, sales in the Business Unit Adsorbents & Additives increased by 1 % in local currency and decreased by 2 % in Swiss francs, driven by a continued improvement in Additives.

EBITDA Margin

In the third quarter, EBITDA before exceptional items increased by 5 % to CHF 42 million, representing a margin of 17.2 %, which was a 130-basis point improvement versus 15.9 % in the prior year. Profitability was driven by a positive mix effect and benefits from the performance improvement programs. Lower raw material prices (- 5 %) also contributed positively, while slightly higher energy prices (+ 1 %) were offset by pricing.

The reported EBITDA of CHF 43 million increased by 8 % compared to the prior year, with a corresponding margin of 17.6 % compared to 15.9 % in the prior year. Restructuring charges for the quarter of CHF 3 million were recognized in 2025.

EBITDA margin before exceptional items for the first nine months of 2025 increased by 180 basis points to 18.6 % from 16.8 % in the prior year, supported by similar factors that influenced the third quarter. Reported EBITDA increased to CHF 126 million from CHF 121 million, with the corresponding margin increasing to 16.8 % from 15.8 %.

Consistent execution of our strategy delivered an EBITDA increase of 3.3% with margin expansion and low-single digit Underlying EPS growth

BRUSSELS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Anheuser-Busch InBev (Brussel:ABI) (BMV:ANB) (JSE:ANH) (NYSE:BUD):

Regulated and inside information1

“Driven by the momentum of our megabrands and our innovation in balanced choices and Beyond Beer, our business delivered continued top- and bottom-line growth, even as we navigated a dynamic consumer environment. Given the progress we have made on our deleveraging and solid year-to-date financial results we have announced a new 6 billion USD share buyback program and an interim dividend.” – Michel Doukeris, CEO, AB InBev

Management comments

Consistent execution of our strategy delivered an EBITDA increase of 3.3% with margin expansion and low-single digit Underlying EPS growth

The consistent execution of our strategy and our disciplined choices in revenue and cost management drove resilient financial performance. Megabrand momentum, innovation in balanced choices and acceleration of our Beyond Beer portfolio drove continued top- and bottom-line growth and increased portfolio brand power. We estimate that we gained or maintained share in the majority of our markets, including the US, Brazil, South Africa, South Korea, Canada and Ecuador.

Revenue per hl increased by 4.8% driving a top-line increase of 0.9%, with growth in 70% of our markets. Volumes declined by 3.7%, impacted primarily by performance in China and unseasonable weather in Brazil. Revenue growth combined with overhead management more than offset transactional FX headwinds to drive an EBITDA increase of 3.3% with margin expansion of 85bps and Underlying EPS growth of 1.0% in USD.

Some key highlights from our performance this quarter include the following: continued momentum of our no-alcohol beer and Beyond Beer portfolios which both grew revenue by 27%; Corona continued to lead premium performance globally, increasing volume by 5.9% outside of Mexico and growing by double-digits in 33 markets; in the US, led by Michelob Ultra, which is now the #1 brand by volume in the industry, we continued to gain market share; and in our digital initiatives, the quarterly growth of BEES Marketplace GMV continued to accelerate, growing by 66% versus 3Q24, and now approaching 1 billion USD.

Progressing our strategic priorities

We continue to execute on and invest in three key strategic pillars to deliver consistent growth and long-term value creation.

(1) Lead and grow the category:

Our portfolio brand power grew in 3Q25 driven by consumer-centric innovation, increased marketing effectiveness and focused investment. In addition, we estimate that we gained or maintained share in the majority of our markets.

(2) Digitize and monetize our ecosystem:

BEES Marketplace captured 935 million USD in GMV from sales of third-party products, a 66% increase versus 3Q24. Overall BEES GMV increased by 11% versus 3Q24, reaching 13.3 billion USD.

(3) Optimize our business:

The AB InBev Board of Directors has approved a new 6 billion USD share buyback program to be executed within the next 24 months and a 0.15 EUR per share interim dividend. We continue to proactively manage our debt portfolio and announced today the redemption of approximately 2 billion USD of outstanding bonds.

(1) Lead and grow the category

Driven by performance across each of the category expansion levers, consumer participation with our portfolio was estimated to have remained stable across our key markets in 3Q25, with participation increases for our megabrands and no-alcohol beer portfolio.

Core Superiority: Revenue of our mainstream portfolio increased by 0.8% in 3Q25, driven by high-single digit growth in Colombia and mid-single digit growth in South Africa.

Premiumization: In the US, Michelob Ultra’s momentum continued in 3Q25, becoming the #1 brand by volume in the industry year-to-date. Corona led our premium performance globally, increasing revenue by 6.3% outside of Mexico. Revenue growth of our overall above core beer portfolio was flattish, constrained by performance in China.

Balanced Choices: Growth in 3Q25 was driven by our no-alcohol beer portfolio which delivered a 27% revenue increase, successfully compounding on the mid-thirties revenue increase in 3Q24 following Olympic Games related activations. No-alcohol beer performance was led by Corona Cero which grew volumes in the low-forties. Our overall balanced choices portfolio of low carb, sugar free, gluten free and no-alcohol beer brands delivered a revenue increase of 6.5%.

Beyond Beer: Growth of our Beyond Beer portfolio accelerated in 3Q25, increasing revenue by 27%, led by the triple-digit growth of Cutwater in the US.

(2) Digitize and monetize our ecosystem

Digitizing our relationships with more than 6 million customers globally: As of 30 September 2025, BEES was live in 29 markets with approximately 70% of our revenues captured through B2B digital platforms. In 3Q25, BEES captured 13.3 billion USD in GMV, growth of 11% versus 3Q24.

Monetizing our route-to-market; approaching 1 billion USD in quarterly GMV: BEES Marketplace GMV growth accelerated in 3Q25, growing by 66% versus 3Q24 to reach 935 million USD from sales of third-party products.

Leading the way in DTC solutions: Our omnichannel DTC ecosystem of digital and physical products generated revenue of approximately 325 million USD in 3Q25. Our DTC megabrands, Zé Delivery, TaDa Delivery and PerfectDraft, generated 17.9 million e-commerce orders and delivered 138 million USD in revenue this quarter, growth of 4% versus 3Q24.

(3) Optimize our business

Maximizing value creation: We are committed to driving long-term shareholder value creation through a combination of profitable growth and disciplined capital allocation choices. Given the progress we have made on our deleveraging and our solid year-to-date financial results, the AB InBev Board of Directors has approved a 6 billion USD share buyback program to be executed within the next 24 months, and a 0.15 EUR per share interim dividend. We continue to proactively manage our debt portfolio and have announced today the redemption of approximately 2 billion USD of outstanding bonds.

Advancing our sustainability priorities: In Climate Action, our Scopes 1 and 2 emissions per hectoliter of production was 4.22 kgCO2e/hl in 9M25, a reduction of 48% versus our 2017 baseline. In Water Stewardship, our water use efficiency ratio improved to 2.38 hl per hl in 9M25 versus 2.47 hl per hl in 9M24.

Delivering reliable compounding growth

In the first 9 months of this year, our business delivered an EBITDA increase of 5.8% with margin expansion of 138bps and Underlying EPS growth of 5.4% in USD and 11.8% in constant currency. We made strategic choices across revenue management, resource allocation, and increased sales and marketing investments to lead and grow the category. The quarterly growth of BEES Marketplace GMV continued to accelerate and is now approaching 1 billion USD. We continued to increase our flexibility for capital allocation choices and announced a new 6 billion USD share buyback program and an interim dividend. Our footprint has structural tailwinds for long-term volume growth with favorable demographics, ongoing economic development and opportunities to increase category participation through innovation in premium, balanced choices, and Beyond Beer. Our solid year-to-date financial performance and the fundamental strengths of our business reinforce our confidence in our ability to deliver our FY25 outlook and long-term value creation.

2025 Outlook

(i) Overall Performance: We expect our EBITDA to grow in line with our medium-term outlook of between 4-8%. The outlook for FY25 reflects our current assessment of inflation and other macroeconomic conditions.

(ii) Net Finance Costs: Net pension interest expenses and accretion expenses are expected to be in the range of 190 to 220 million USD per quarter, depending on currency and interest rate fluctuations. We expect the average gross debt coupon in FY25 to be approximately 4%.

(iii) Effective Tax Rate (ETR): We expect the normalized ETR in FY25 to be in the range of 26% to 28%. The ETR outlook does not consider the impact of potential future changes in legislation.

(iv) Net Capital Expenditure: We expect net capital expenditure of between 3.5 and 4.0 billion USD in FY25.

Key Markets Performance

United States: Michelob Ultra now the #1 brand in the industry; our portfolio continues to build momentum and gain market share

Operating performance:

3Q25: Revenue declined by 0.8% with revenue per hl increasing by 2.0% driven by revenue management initiatives and premiumization. Sales-to-retailers (STRs) declined by 2.5%, estimated to have outperformed a soft industry. Sales-to-wholesalers (STWs) declined by 2.7%. EBITDA increased by 0.4% with a margin improvement of 42bps, driven by productivity initiatives, even as we continued to increase our marketing investments to fuel momentum.

9M25: Revenue declined by 1.2%, with revenue per hl increasing by 1.8%. STRs declined by 3.1% and STWs were down by 3.0%, and we expect our STRs and STWs to converge on a full year basis. EBITDA increased by 1.1% with a margin improvement of 80bps.

Commercial highlights: Consistent execution and increased portfolio brand power drove our momentum with our business continuing to gain market share of the beer industry and the spirits-based ready-to-drink category, according to Circana. Our beer performance was led by Michelob Ultra, the #1 volume share gainer and now the leading brand by volume in the industry year-to-date, and Busch Light, which continued to be the #2 volume share gainer in the industry. We are the leaders in no-alcohol beer, with our portfolio growing revenue by double-digits, led by Michelob Ultra Zero which is the fastest growing no-alcohol beer brand in the industry year-to-date. In Beyond Beer, our portfolio momentum accelerated, with revenue growth in the mid-forties, led by Cutwater which grew revenue in the triple digits and was the #1 share gaining brand in the total spirits industry in August and September.

Mexico: Continued top-line growth driven by disciplined revenue management

Operating performance:

3Q25: Revenue increased by low-single digits, with mid-single digit revenue per hl growth driven by revenue management initiatives. Volumes decreased by low-single digits, underperforming the industry which was negatively impacted by a soft consumer environment and unseasonable weather. Our volumes improved sequentially through the quarter, both returning to growth and gaining market share in August and September. Disciplined revenue management choices and productivity initiatives partially offset transactional FX headwinds to deliver slight EBITDA growth.

9M25: Revenue grew by mid-single digits with revenue per hl growth of mid-single digits and flattish volumes, in-line with the industry. EBITDA grew by mid-single digits with margin expansion.

Commercial highlights: Our performance was led by our above core beer portfolio, which grew revenue by low-single digits driven by Modelo and Pacifico. We are leading the growth in no-alcohol beer, with Corona Cero growing volume by strong double-digits and Modelo Cero, an innovation launch earlier this year, already the #4 no-alcohol beer in the industry. We continue to progress our digital initiatives, with BEES Marketplace growing GMV by 26% versus 3Q24 and our digital DTC platform, TaDa Delivery, fulfilling 3.2 million orders year-to-date, a 5% increase versus 9M24.

Colombia: Record high volume drove double-digit top-line and mid-single digit bottom-line growth

Operating performance:

3Q25: Revenue increased by low-teens with high-single digit revenue per hl growth, driven by revenue management initiatives. Volumes grew by low-single digits, with our portfolio estimated to have gained share of alcohol beverages. EBITDA grew by mid-single digits.

9M25: Revenue grew by high-single digits with high-single digit revenue per hl growth. Volumes increased by low-single digits. EBITDA grew by high-single digits with margin expansion.

Commercial highlights: The beer industry continued to grow and gain share of alcohol beverages this quarter according to our estimates. Our premium and super premium brands led our performance, delivering mid-teens volume growth and driving record high third quarter volumes. Our mainstream beer portfolio continued to grow, delivering low-single digit volume growth.

Brazil: Market share gain and disciplined revenue and cost management offset a soft industry to deliver flat EBITDA with margin expansion

Operating performance:

3Q25: Revenue declined by 1.9% with revenue per hl growth of 6.5% driven by revenue management initiatives and premiumization. Total volumes declined by 7.9%, with beer volume decreasing by 7.7%, estimated to have outperformed a soft industry, and non-beer volumes decreasing by 8.5%, with both industries impacted by unseasonable weather and a soft consumer environment. EBITDA increased by 0.1% with margin expansion of 68bps as disciplined revenue management choices and productivity initiatives more than offset transactional FX headwinds.

9M25: Revenue grew by 0.4% with revenue per hl growth of 4.9%. Total volumes declined by 4.3% with beer volumes declining by 5.3% and non-beer volumes declining by 1.6%. EBITDA increased by 6.5% with margin expansion of 195bps.

Commercial highlights: Our premium and super premium beer brands led our performance, delivering mid-teens volume growth and gaining share of the segment to now be the #1 premium brewer in the industry year-to-date, according to Nielsen. The market share trend of our mainstream portfolio improved sequentially through the quarter, however volumes were negatively impacted by a soft industry. Our portfolio of balanced choices drove incremental growth with volumes of our no-alcohol beer brands increasing by low-twenties and Stella Artois Gluten Free more than doubling. In non-beer, our low- and no-sugar portfolio continued to outperform, delivering low-twenties volume growth. We continue to progress our digital initiatives, with BEES Marketplace growing GMV by 88% versus 3Q24, and our digital DTC platform, Zé Delivery, reaching 5.4 million monthly active users.

Europe: Continued market share gains and premiumization drove flattish volumes and margin recovery

Operating performance:

3Q25: Revenue declined by low-single digits with flattish revenue per hl. Volumes were flattish, estimated to have outperformed a soft industry in 5 of our 6 key markets. EBITDA grew by low-single digits with margin recovery.

9M25: Revenue declined by low-single digits with slight revenue per hl growth driven by continued premiumization. Volume declined by low-single digits, estimated to have gained or maintained market share in all 6 of our key markets. EBITDA grew by mid-single digits with margin recovery.

Commercial highlights: Market share gains and the continued premiumization of our portfolio drove flattish volumes, with our premium and super premium brands making up approximately 60% of our 3Q25 revenue. Our performance this quarter was driven by our megabrands, led by Corona, which delivered double-digit volume growth, and Stella Artois, which effectively activated the Perfect Serve campaign at the Wimbledon tennis tournament. The momentum of our no-alcohol beer portfolio continued, led by Corona Cero with mid-twenties volume growth, successfully compounding on the triple digit growth in 3Q24 following the Olympic Games.

South Africa: Continued momentum delivered mid-single digit top-line and high-single digit bottom-line growth

Operating performance:

3Q25: Revenue increased by mid-single digits with slight revenue per hl growth. Volumes grew by mid-single digits, supported by shipment phasing ahead of our October price increase, and estimated to have maintained share of beer and gained share of Beyond Beer. EBITDA grew by high-single digits with margin expansion.

9M25: Revenue increased by mid-single digits with revenue per hl growth of low-single digits. Volumes grew by low-single digits, estimated to have gained share in both beer and Beyond Beer. EBITDA grew by mid-single digits with margin expansion.

In Beyond Beer, our portfolio grew volumes by mid-teens led by Flying Fish, Brutal Fruit and Redd’s.

China: Top- and bottom-line declined, impacted by volume performance

Operating performance:

3Q25: Volumes declined by 11.4%, underperforming the industry according to our estimates, with our performance impacted by continued weakness in our key regions and channels and inventory management. Revenue per hl declined by 4.3%, impacted by increased investments to expand our in-home presence and negative brand mix, resulting in a revenue decline of 15.2%. EBITDA declined by 16.9% as productivity initiatives partially offset the impact of operational deleverage.

9M25: Revenue declined by 11.3% with revenue per hl declining by 2.2% and volumes decreasing by 9.3%. EBITDA declined by 11.8%.

Commercial highlights: Industry volumes were estimated to have declined by low-single digits versus 3Q24, with a growing in-home channel outweighed by a soft on-premise. Our top priorities are to rebuild momentum and reignite growth. To achieve this, we are investing in our portfolio, innovation and mega platform activations, enhancing our route to market in the in-home channel, and expanding our footprint through targeted geographic expansion. As we move forward, our innovations will include the national rollout of Budweiser Magnum and launch of new packages for Budweiser and Corona such as the 1 liter can and a full-open lid can to bring the iconic lime ritual into the in-home occasion.

Highlights from our other markets

Canada: Revenue was flattish this quarter with low-single digit revenue per hl growth.

Argentina: Volume declined by low-single digits in 3Q25, as overall consumer demand continued to be impacted by inflationary pressures. Since 1Q24, the definition of organic revenue growth in Argentina has been amended to cap the price growth to a maximum of 2% per month. Revenue grew by high-single digits on this basis.

Africa excluding South Africa: In Nigeria, revenue grew by mid-single digits in 3Q25, driven by revenue management initiatives in a highly inflationary environment.

The 9M24, 3Q25 and 9M25 effective tax rates were negatively impacted by non-deductible losses from derivatives related to the hedging of share-based payment programs and of the shares issued in a transaction related to the combinations with Grupo Modelo and SAB, while the 3Q24 effective tax rate was positively impacted by non-taxable gains from these derivatives. Furthermore, the 9M25 effective tax rate included 56 million USD of non-underlying tax income, mainly reflecting 66m US dollar in income resulting from the renegotiation of the terms of the 2017 Brazilian Federal Tax Regularization Program. The 9M24 effective tax rate included 114 million USD of non-underlying tax expense.

The decrease in Normalized ETR in 3Q25 and 9M25 compared to 3Q24 and 9M24 was mainly driven by country mix.

Normalized EBITDA, Normalized EBIT and Underlying Profit are non-IFRS financial measures used by AB InBev to reflect the company’s underlying performance. Underlying EPS and constant currency Underlying EPS are non-IFRS financial measures that AB InBev believes are useful to investors because they facilitate comparisons of EPS from period to period.

Normalized EBITDA is calculated by adjusting profit attributable to equity holders of AB InBev to exclude: (i) non-controlling interest; (ii) income tax expense; (iii) share of results of associates; (iv) non-underlying share of results of associates; (v) net finance income or cost; (vi) non-underlying net finance income or cost; (vii) non-underlying items above EBIT; and (viii) depreciation, amortization and impairment.

Underlying Profit is calculated by adjusting profit attributable to equity holders of AB InBev to exclude: (i) non-underlying items and (ii) hyperinflation impacts. Underlying EPS is calculated as Underlying Profit divided by the weighted average number of ordinary and restricted shares. Constant currency Underlying EPS is calculated as Underlying EPS excluding the effects of foreign currency translation by translating current period figures using the exchange rates from the same period in the prior year.

Normalized EBITDA, Normalized EBIT and Underlying Profit are not accounting measures under IFRS and should not be considered as an alternative to profit attributable to equity holders as a measure of operational performance, or an alternative to cash flow as a measure of liquidity. Underlying EPS and constant currency Underlying EPS are not accounting measures under IFRS and should not be considered as alternatives to earnings per share as a measure of operating performance on a per share basis. These non-IFRS financial measures do not have a standard calculation method and AB InBev’s definition of Normalized EBITDA, Normalized EBIT, Underlying Profit, Underlying EPS and constant currency Underlying EPS may not be comparable to that of other companies.

Recent Events

Announcement of 6 Billion USD share buyback program to be executed within the next 24 months

On 29 October 2025, the AB InBev Board of Directors approved a 6 billion USD share buyback program to be executed within the next 24 months1. Based on the closing price of AB InBev’s ordinary shares on the Euronext Brussels on 29 October, this amount represented approximately 97.3 million shares. Such number of shares will fluctuate depending on share price movements. The share buyback program will be implemented in accordance with industry best practices and in compliance with the applicable buyback rules and regulations. To this end, an independent financial intermediary will be appointed to repurchase on the basis of a discretionary mandate. The precise timing of the repurchase of shares pursuant to the program will depend on a variety of factors including market conditions. During the share buyback program, the company will regularly publish press releases with updates on the progress made (if any) as required by law. This information will also be available on the investor relations pages of our website under the return of capital program section (https://www.ab-inbev.com/investors/share-information/return-of-capital-program). Our current intention is to hold the shares acquired as treasury shares to fulfil future share delivery commitments under the stock ownership plans and/or, subject to approval by the General Meeting of Shareholders to be held on 29 April 2026, to cancel the shares through a capital reduction. The program will be executed under the powers granted at the General Meeting of Shareholders on 28 April 2021 to be renewed, subject to approval, by the General Meeting of Shareholders of 29 April 2026.

Announcement of 2 Billion USD bond redemption

On 30 October 2025, the company announced the redemption of approximately 2 billion USD of outstanding bonds. Additional details will be provided in the press release section of our website at https://www.ab-inbev.com/news-media/press-releases/.

Notes

To facilitate the understanding of AB InBev’s underlying performance, the analyses of growth, including all comments in this press release, unless otherwise indicated, are based on organic growth and normalized numbers. In other words, financials are analyzed eliminating the impact of changes in currencies on translation of foreign operations, and scope changes. Since 1Q24, the definition of organic revenue growth has been amended to cap the price growth in Argentina to a maximum of 2% per month (26.8% year-over-year). Corresponding adjustments are made to all income statement related items in the organic growth calculations through scope changes. Scope changes also represent the impact of acquisitions and divestitures, the start or termination of activities or the transfer of activities between segments, curtailment gains and losses and year over year changes in accounting estimates and other assumptions that management does not consider as part of the underlying performance of the business. The organic growth of our global brands, Budweiser, Stella Artois, and Corona excludes exports to Australia for which a perpetual license was granted to a third party upon disposal of the Australia operations in 2020. All references per hectoliter (per hl) exclude US non-beverage activities. Whenever presented in this document, all performance measures (EBITDA, EBIT, profit, tax rate, EPS) are presented on a “normalized” basis, which means they are presented before non-underlying items. Non-underlying items are either income or expenses which do not occur regularly as part of the normal activities of the Company. They are presented separately because they are important for the understanding of the underlying sustainable performance of the Company due to their size or nature. Normalized measures are additional measures used by management and should not replace the measures determined in accordance with IFRS as an indicator of the Company’s performance. We are reporting the results from Argentina applying hyperinflation accounting since 3Q18. The IFRS rules (IAS 29) require us to restate the year-to-date results for the change in the general purchasing power of the local currency, using official indices before converting the local amounts at the closing rate of the period. In 3Q25, we reported a negative impact from hyperinflation accounting on the profit attributable to equity holders of AB InBev of (18) million USD. The impact in 3Q25 Basic EPS was (0.01) USD. Values in the figures and annexes may not add up, due to rounding. 3Q25 and 9M25 EPS is based upon a weighted average of 1 986 million shares compared to a weighted average of 2 004 million shares for 3Q24 and 9M24.

SummaryOneMain Holdings has been in business for over a hundred years, weathered several poor markets, reliably pays a 7% dividend, and trades at a forward PE of around 9.The company still looks this attractive, partially because of the perceived competition by a host of FinTech companies competing for loan origination.Yet, several of these FinTechs, many of which promote their AI-risk differentiation, operate largely unproven models in what looks to be a more uncertain macro environment.With possible stress in the non/near-prime credit market that I believe would be disproportionately negative for its competitors, this looks like a great setup for OMF.

Ethereum (ETH) is once again taking center stage in the crypto market, as fresh institutional data reveals a remarkable surge in fund holdings. Over the past year, holdings of Ethereum in institutional funds have climbed by an impressive 138%, according to data from CryptoQuant.

Follow up to the hour updates on what is happening in crypto today, October 30. Market movements, crypto news, and more!

A trader who earned over $12 million from meme coins has invested $18,300 in GhostwareOS (GHOST).GHOST surged 24% in a day and hit an all-time high of $0.015 as privacy-focused projects gain traction across the crypto market.Analysts say privacy could be a major crypto trend, with GHOST positioned for further growth.A trader noted for earning over $12 million from meme coins has now bet on GhostwareOS (GHOST), a privacy-focused cryptocurrency.

This investment comes amid a growing focus on privacy-first technologies in crypto. The privacy coin sector has seen notable growth recently, with the market cap now at $14.5 billion.

High-Profile Trader Backs New Privacy CoinAccording to the latest data from Lookonchain, the trader, identified as “LeBron,” made millions from several coins earlier this year. In February, the blockchain analytics firm highlighted that the trader had gained over $12 million from PolitiFi meme coins.

This included $8.9 million from Melania Meme (MELANIA) and $3.2 million from Official Trump (TRUMP). Furthermore, he also made $4.56 million from LIBRA and $1 million from Harry Bōlz (HARRYBOLZ), which surged after Elon Musk’s user name change on X (formerly Twitter).

Now, the trader has invested 102 Solana (SOL) worth around $18,300 to obtain 2.9 million GHOST tokens.

Its native token, GHOST, is a new market entrant but has positioned itself as the top daily gainer among privacy coins on CoinGecko. The token has appreciated nearly 24% over the past day.

Furthermore, it peaked at an all-time high of $0.015 in early Asian trading hours today before stabilizing to a press time value of $0.013.

GhostwareOS (GHOST) Price Performance. Source: BeInCrypto MarketsGHOST’s arrival comes as the privacy narrative is gaining increased attention in the space. BeInCrypto reported that privacy tokens have outperformed every other sector this year, with coins like ZCash (ZEC) leading the rally with massive gains. This broader interest has also raised optimism for GHOST.

“Very bullish on GHOST. Privacy could be the next trillion-dollar meta. Every major voice is screaming the same thing: privacy = the next 1000x. Team behind this is legit and strong,” Altcoin Gordon wrote.

Another prominent cryptocurrency trader noted that privacy is the primary narrative where innovation remains underdeveloped. The trader expects renewed Solana ecosystem activity if market conditions strengthen later in the year, potentially benefiting GHOST.

“Ghost looks like it’s gonna be the next Solana runner,” he added.

For GHOST, strong price movement and community support suggest a solid early reception. However, lasting relevance depends on GhostWare’s ability to move from short-term hype to real user adoption in Solana’s competitive ecosystem.

Elon Musk’s space exploration company, SpaceX, moved another 281 Bitcoin on Thursday, according to blockchain analytics firm Arkham Intelligence.

The third major Bitcoin transfer by the firm sparked speculations within the crypto community as BTC price slipped below $110K again after Fed Chair Jerome Powell’s hawkish remarks.

SpaceX Moves Another 281 Bitcoin
SpaceX moved $31.33 million to a new wallet rather than to the wallets in the previous transfers, on-chain analyst Lookonchain reported on October 30. As per the on-chain expert, the latest transfer is likely related to custody purposes.

Arkham transaction data revealed over 1207 BTC moved from the wallet linked to SpaceX. Unspent 281 BTC worth $31.33 moved to ‘bc1qmg’ and spent $19.33 in BTC moved to Coinbase Prime. Also, the remaining 927 BTC moved back to the SpaceX wallet.

In the past 10 days, Elon Musk’s space exploration company has moved its BTC holdings three times. The company transferred $133.7 million and $268 million in Bitcoin earlier. The company has now moved a total of approximately $450 million.

Bitcoin Transfers Follow Elon Musk’s Pro-Bitcoin Remarks
The sudden and huge transactions have caused a strong stir across the global crypto market. The crypto community speculates whether Elon Musk is taking caution ahead of a potential market correction or strategically restructuring assets in preparation for something big.

Notably, Bitcoin transfers surfaced after Elon Musk mentioned Bitcoin on October 14, the first time in many years. He praised BTC’s true energy basis, making a notable shift from criticizing BTC’s energy consumption to a pro-Bitcoin rhetoric.

In 2022, SpaceX reduced its Bitcoin holdings by around 70%, possibly triggered by the crypto market crash caused by the Terra-Luna crisis and the collapse of FTX.

BTC Price Tumbles to $108K
The panic related to Elon Musk’s SpaceX moving Bitcoin and hawkish remarks from Fed Chair Jerome Powell on an uncertain Fed rate cut in December caused BTC price to plunge over 2% to $108K in just an hour.

BTC price is now down more than 4% in the last 24 hours, with a 24-hour low and high of $108,097 and $113,642, respectively. Trading volume remains flat in the last 24 hours, signaling that traders are turning cautious.

The next support is now near the $108,000 zone. Any more losses might send the price toward the $106,500 support in the near term. The main support sits at $103,500, below which BTC might struggle to recover in the short term.

Technical indicators:

Bitcoin's price movement this week reflects a market in quiet anticipation. After briefly dipping below $112,000 in early Asian trading hours, the world's largest cryptocurrency managed to stabilize around that level as traders await the U.S. Federal Reserve's interest rate decision.

Bitcoin (BTC) is attempting to push above critical demand levels today as traders position ahead of the US Federal Reserve meeting, a key event that could influence market direction for the weeks ahead. The market remains cautious but tense, with volatility expected to spike once the Fed reveals its stance on interest rates and quantitative tightening (QT). A dovish signal could ignite renewed buying momentum across risk assets, while a reaffirmation of restrictive policy might extend the current consolidation phase.

According to fresh on-chain data from CryptoQuant, Long-Term Holders (LTHs) have been actively selling throughout the past month—a trend that points to an ongoing distribution phase in Bitcoin’s cycle. Over the last 30 days, these seasoned investors have offloaded significant amounts of BTC, signaling profit-taking behavior after months of accumulation earlier in the year.

While short-term traders watch for a potential breakout, the sustained selling pressure from long-term holders introduces a layer of caution. Still, analysts note that such distribution patterns often occur during mid-cycle transitions, when capital rotates from patient holders to new participants. How Bitcoin reacts to today’s Fed announcement may determine whether this phase evolves into renewed strength or deeper consolidation.

Bitcoin Prepares For Volatility
According to data shared by top analyst Maartunn, Long-Term Holders (LTHs) have offloaded approximately 325,600 BTC over the past 30 days—the sharpest monthly drawdown since July 2025. This wave of distribution marks a significant shift in market dynamics, suggesting that even the most patient investors are realizing profits or repositioning amid growing macro uncertainty. Historically, such large-scale LTH sell-offs tend to occur near key market transitions—either during late-stage rallies or deep consolidation phases where capital begins rotating back into circulation.

The timing of this distribution is particularly notable, coming just as Bitcoin consolidates around the $112,000–$113,000 range and the market braces for the US Federal Reserve’s policy announcement. While selling from long-term holders can initially pressure prices, it often sets the foundation for new market entrants to accumulate at more favorable levels. Once this supply redistributes and selling momentum fades, the market can stabilize and form a stronger base for the next upward move.

Maartunn’s analysis suggests that this could be part of a healthy market rotation, not necessarily the start of a broader downtrend. If Bitcoin manages to hold above its 200-day moving average and liquidity remains resilient, the recent LTH distribution may ultimately serve as a reset phase—transferring supply from experienced holders to new investors ahead of a renewed bullish impulse.

Looking ahead, the key to Bitcoin’s next major move will likely depend on macro conditions—specifically, the Fed’s tone on interest rates and liquidity management. A dovish or neutral stance could reignite demand and absorb the excess supply, while a more hawkish message may extend consolidation. Either way, this phase appears to be setting the stage for Bitcoin’s next decisive trend.

Bitcoin Faces Rejection As Bulls Defend Key Support
Bitcoin (BTC) is trading around $113,130, showing mild weakness after failing to break above the $117,500 resistance, a critical supply zone that has rejected price advances multiple times this month. The 4-hour chart highlights a clear rejection near this level, followed by a short-term pullback that has brought BTC back toward its 50-period moving average (blue), currently acting as intraday support.

BTC consolidates below $115K | Source: BTCUSDT chart on TradingView
Below current levels, the 100-period (green) and 200-period (red) moving averages sit between $111,000–$112,000, forming a solid confluence of dynamic support. As long as Bitcoin holds above this zone, the broader structure remains constructive, suggesting this pullback could be a retest before another breakout attempt.

A confirmed break above $117,500 would invalidate the short-term bearish setup and potentially trigger a move toward $120,000–$123,000, where the next resistance cluster lies. However, if BTC closes below $111,500, it could invite deeper corrections toward $108,000, which served as a strong reaction zone earlier this month.

The first major resistance is near the $4,080 level. A clear move above the $4,080 resistance might send the price toward the $4,120 resistance. An upside break above the $4,120 region might call for more gains in the coming sessions. In the stated case, Ether could rise toward the $4,200 resistance zone or even $4,220 in the near term.

More Losses In ETH?
If Ethereum fails to clear the $4,000 resistance, it could start a fresh decline. Initial support on the downside is near the $3,880 level. The first major support sits near the $3,840 zone and the 76.4% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $3,708 swing low to the $4,252 high.

A clear move below the $3,840 support might push the price toward the $3,750 support. Any more losses might send the price toward the $3,700 region in the near term. The next key support sits at $3,650 and $3,620.

Over the last three months, three wallets that participated in the Ethereum ICO have started moving tokens again after nearly a decade of inactivity.

69

Long-term Ether holders have become increasingly active in the second half of the year as Ether toyed with its all-time highs, with more “ICO-era” holders “awakening” after years of dormancy. 

September saw two of the most significant spikes in long-term holder activity since the year’s peak in July, as measured by Santiment's analytics platform Sanbase’s age consumed metric. 

The metric measures the total amount of Ether (ETH) changing addresses, multiplied by the time since they last moved. A spike indicates a significant amount of old Ether moving, according to the description.

The metric shows a spike to 502 million, around Sept. 6, and then 603 million at the end of September, the highest in the year outside of July’s high of around 804 million. 

September saw two of the most significant spikes in long-term holder Ether activity for the year outside of July. Source: Sanbase “ICO-era” Ether holders are wakingThe spike in long-term Ether holder activity also includes some of Ether’s early holders.

On Wednesday, a whale that received 20,000 Ether during the Ethereum ICO moved 1,500 tokens to the crypto exchange Kraken after eight years of inactivity, according to Nansen. 

When the address first acquired the tokens, the 20,000 Ether cost just over $6,000, but in the years since, it has grown significantly in value to over $78 million. 

Two other ICO holders made moves in August and SeptemberAnother Ethereum ICO participant who received a total of 1 million in Ether in three installments of 200,000 Ether, 300,000 and 500,000 to three separate wallets during the ecosystem’s genesis days also started making moves in September, moving 150,000 Ether to a new wallet for staking.

The whale spent a total of $310,000 as part of the ICO to receive its Ether, which has since grown in value to over $3.9 billion. 

At the same time, a much smaller holder performed their first action in a decade during August, sending 0.001 Ether as a test transaction. Unlike the whales, this holder only bought up 158 Ether in the rollout for $49.

Activity on Tron is booming, with a 69% week-on-week rise in active addresses to 11.1 million, and Tuesday’s 12.6 million transaction count being the network’s largest in two years.

Blockchain data suggests more people are transacting on the Tron network than ever before amid strong retail adoption and the rising popularity of the high-speed, low-cost chain.

The number of daily Tron daily active addresses rose to a record 5.7 million on Tuesday — beating the previous record of 5.4 million set the day before — while the more than 12.6 million transactions clocked on Tuesday were the highest daily tally since June 12, 2023, TRONSCAN data shows.

“No headlines. No hype. Just raw throughput. That’s top-tier activity with zero fanfare,” blockchain analytics platform Nansen said in a post to X on Wednesday.

Data from Nansen shows a 69% rise in daily active Tron addresses over the last week, reaching nearly 11.1 million — marking the largest week-on-week change among major blockchains.

USDT on Tron is the combo of choice for manyWhile Tron’s decentralized finance ecosystem isn’t as prominent as Ethereum’s, it facilitates between 15-20 million Tether (USDT) stablecoin transfers weekly, making it one of the most common token and chain payment combinations in the crypto space.

It is widely used in Africa, Asia and South America — allowing locals to benefit from high-speed, low-cost US dollar-pegged token transfers where real US dollar access is often limited.

Tether notched its 500 millionth USDT user on Oct. 21 — an achievement its CEO, Paolo Ardoino, said is “likely the biggest financial inclusion achievement in history.”

Key Takeaways
Is ETH doing well right now?
A $113 million whale purchase, $380 million in ETF inflows, and progress on the Fusaka upgrade mean Ethereum is doing well.

What needs to happen for Ethereum to hit $7K?
ETH must break above its current range with rising volume, stronger ETF inflows, and more whale buys.

Ethereum [ETH] is finding good momentum.

A major purchase by Bitmine, ETF inflows, and developments on the Fusaka front are causing optimism just as analysts eye a $7,000 target. Can ETH turn this alignment into a breakout?

Ethereum whale activity picks up!
Ethereum’s whale transactions surged following Bitmine’s recent $113 million purchase, so accumulation is at a high!

Santiment data showed whale transactions exceeding $1 million spiked sharply on the 29th of October, reaching one of the highest levels in over three weeks.

This coincided with ETH’s rebound toward $4,000 — institutional buying could be reinforcing support around press time levels. If this trend continues, it may provide the boost needed for Ethereum to run faster.

ETF flows recover as network makes moves
Ethereum ETFs had also been recovering, recording $379.9 million in net inflows this week and lifting total net assets to $27.66 billion, according to SoSoValue.

This rebound followed two weeks of outflows and was in tandem with excitement around the Fusaka upgrade, now live on the Hoodi test network.

With the mainnet activation set for the 3rd of December, the upgrade is said to enhance scalability, reduce gas costs, and enable parallel execution.

These are all key steps toward improving rollup efficiency and maintaining network competitiveness ahead of the next market cycle.

ETH to $7K if…

ETH traded near $4,000 inside a tight consolidation box at press time, with volume at 25.8K. This is similar to May’s pre-rally structure posted by analyst MaxCrypto.

The momentum was neutral: RSI at 47 and CMF -0.06, indicating tepid buying pressure.

For a $7K run to materialize, price needs a proper break above the box with rising daily volume, CMF flipping positive, and continued ETF inflows/whale accumulation (Bitmine’s $113 million buy helps).

Failure to break would likely retest the lower support band and invalidate the steep upside projection. The setup is plausible, not guaranteed.

IBM’s latest quantum computing milestone has intensified fears in the crypto community about the potential vulnerability of Bitcoin’s encryption. In a groundbreaking study titled “Big Cats: Entanglement in 120 Qubits and Beyond,” IBM researchers announced the successful creation of a 120-qubit entangled quantum state—the largest and most stable of its kind ever achieved. This experiment marks a significant step toward fault-tolerant quantum computers capable of executing algorithms powerful enough to compromise modern cryptography, including Bitcoin’s encryption.

The team leveraged superconducting circuits and advanced compiler technology to minimize noise and maintain qubit stability. By employing techniques from graph theory, stabilizer groups, and temporary uncomputation, they achieved genuine multipartite entanglement across all qubits. The result reached a fidelity score of 0.56—surpassing the 0.5 threshold that confirms true quantum entanglement—demonstrating that all 120 qubits functioned as one coherent system.

IBM’s accomplishment outpaces Google Quantum AI’s 105-qubit “Willow” chip, which recently demonstrated quantum advantage by outperforming classical computers in physics simulations. The race among tech giants like IBM, Google, and Quantinuum highlights the rapid acceleration toward practical quantum computing—technology that could one day render traditional encryption obsolete.

Although today’s quantum systems remain far from breaking Bitcoin’s cryptography, experts warn that the danger is approaching. According to Project 11, around 6.6 million BTC—valued at more than $767 billion—could be at risk once fault-tolerant quantum systems emerge. These include Satoshi Nakamoto’s dormant coins, which are currently inaccessible but potentially vulnerable in a post-quantum era.

With IBM targeting fully fault-tolerant quantum computers by 2030, the countdown has begun for blockchain networks to transition toward quantum-resistant security measures. The quantum era is coming—and with it, a new challenge for the future of cryptocurrency security.

One of Solana’s leading trading platforms is taking a new step that could reshape how tokens are launched across the network.

Summary

HumidiFi DEX will debut its WET token on Jupiter’s DTF ICO platform.
The Solana-based DEX processes up to 40% of network DEX volume.
DTF grants JUP stakers exclusive access and introduces a controlled token sale format.

HumidiFi, a leading decentralized exchange on Solana, will launch its native WET token through Jupiter’s new Decentralized Token Formation platform, the first project to debut on the service. 

Jupiter (JUP) confirmed the news in an Oct. 30 post on X, marking a major milestone for both platforms as Solana’s (SOL) decentralized sector continues to expand.

Solana’s prop AMM leader enters the token market
Launched in June 2025, HumidiFi has become one of Solana’s most active DEXs, handling between 35% and 40% of all Solana DEX volume. The platform specializes in proprietary automated market makers (prop AMMs) — sometimes described as “dark pools” — that route trades privately through aggregators like Jupiter to reduce slippage, front-running, and MEV attacks.

In the past month alone, HumidiFi processed more than $34 billion in transactions, recently surpassing competitors such as Raydium, Meteora, and PumpSwap. On its busiest day, its 24-hour trading volume reached $1.1 billion, a record for the Solana-based DEX.

Although HumidiFi has grown, its “dark AMM” model has sparked concerns about transparency because its operators are still partially anonymous, and community members have demanded audits to ensure user safety.

The WET token launch, set for Oct. 30, is the first to use Jupiter’s DTF platform, a new system for structured, community-backed token offerings. The DTF model allows JUP token stakers exclusive early access to token sales while controlling initial supply to avoid post-launch volatility.

While no public price for WET has been revealed, it will serve as both a governance and utility token, with allocations expected for liquidity incentives, community programs, and future integrations. Following the sale, WET will trade through Jupiter’s aggregator, with initial liquidity sourced from DTF participants.

For HumidiFi, the token launch opens a new phase of growth by aligning users and liquidity providers through incentives. For Jupiter, DTF strengthens its position in Solana’s fast-growing launchpad market, projected to exceed $140 million in quarterly volume. The platform directs 80% of revenue to JUP holders, increasing demand for staking as more token launches follow.

NEW ORLEANS, Oct. 29, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ClaimsFiler, a FREE shareholder information service, reminds investors that they have until December 8, 2025 to file lead plaintiff applications in a securities class action lawsuit against WPP plc (NYSE: WPP), if they purchased or otherwise acquired the Company’s shares between February 27, 2025 and July 8, 2025, inclusive (the “Class Period”). This action is pending in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York.

About the Lawsuit

WPP and certain of its executives are charged with failing to disclose material information during the Class Period, violating federal securities laws.

On July 9, 2025, the Company published a trading update for the first half of 2025, disclosing that it had allegedly “seen a deterioration in performance as Q2 has progressed” due to both “continued macro uncertainty weighing on client spend and weaker net new business than originally anticipated,” as well as “some distraction to the business” as a result of the continued restructuring of WPP Media a.k.a. GroupM. The Company further disclosed that its CEO “will retire from the Board and as CEO on 31 December 2025.”

On this news, the price of WPP’s shares fell from a closing price of $35.82 per share on July 8, 2025 to $29.34 per share on July 9, 2025, a decline of about 18.1% in the span of just a single day.

The case is Marty v. WPP plc, 25-cv-08365.

Fed Rate Cut Adds Liquidity, But Economic Uncertainty Limits Oil Rally
The US Federal Reserve cut interest rates by 25 basis points, as expected. However, Chair Jerome Powell’s cautious tone on the economic outlook added uncertainty to the market narrative. While rate cuts typically support commodity prices, concerns about slowing global growth persist.

This mixed signal suggests that although oil benefits from increased liquidity, investor caution remains due to the Fed’s unclear forward guidance.

Sanctions on Russian Oil Giants Offer Temporary Lift
Oil prices posted their biggest weekly gains since June, driven by US sanctions on Russian energy companies Lukoil and Rosneft. These sanctions, imposed in response to the Ukraine conflict, raised fears of supply disruptions and pushed prices higher.

However, the initial surge faded as markets began pricing in the possibility that Russia could reroute exports or that the overall supply impact may be limited. On the other hand, the rally faced fresh headwinds after reports emerged that OPEC+ may raise output in December.

These expectations could counteract the bullish momentum from inventory drawdowns and sanctions. With OPEC+ acting cautiously amid volatile demand projections, oil prices may struggle to find long-term support without sustained global growth.

Crude Oil Technical Analysis: Bearish Setup Signals Further Downside
The long-term outlook for WTI crude oil shows a strong negative trend. Prices have broken below a symmetrical triangle pattern near the $67 level. Currently, they are consolidating around the black dotted trendline in the middle of a descending channel.

A break below $55 would likely trigger a sharp decline in oil prices. Additionally, the RSI remains below the 50 level, which confirms the bearish momentum and suggests further downside potential.

As a result of the Share Consolidation, each 16 ordinary shares outstanding will automatically combine and convert to one issued and outstanding ordinary share. The Share Consolidation will affect all shareholders uniformly and will not alter any shareholder's percentage ownership interest in the Company, except for minimal changes that may result from the treatment of fractional shares. No action is required by shareholders holding their shares through a brokerage account.

No fractional shares will be issued to any shareholders in connection with the share consolidation, and each shareholder will be entitled to receive one share of the Company in lieu of the fractional share of that class that would have resulted from the share consolidation.
