2024 yielded mixed results for AB InBev: although sales volume shrank 1.4% to 576 million hectolitres, EBITDA rose 8.2% organically. That beats the 6-8% growth the beer giant itself was counting on. Total revenue rose 2.7% to 59.8 billion dollars (55.6 billion euros), while revenue per hectolitre rose 4.3%.
