Danone Reports Solid Growth in Q3 2026

Danone announced a strong performance for the third quarter of 2026, with sales reaching €7,233 million, reflecting a like-for-like growth of 4.0%. This growth was fueled by both price increases and a slight rise in volume/mix. Key geographical regions, including EMEA, the Americas, and APAC, all contributed positively to the company’s results.

In EMEA, a 3.9% increase in like-for-like sales was primarily driven by essential dairy and plant-based products. The Americas showed robust growth of 4.4%, with notable performance in specialized nutrition. APAC registered a similar 3.6% rise, although waters faced challenges this season.

The company confirmed its guidance for the year, expecting a continued sales increase of between 3% and 5%. Danone also announced plans for a share buyback to offset the impacts of capital increases.
