The strong South America recovery (Colombia +17.7% volume, Brazil +5.2%) provides a positive catalyst, but the persistent weakness in Mexico & Central America (operating income -7.0%) is a significant headwind. Monitor the Q3 call for commentary on Mexico consumer trends and excise tax impact; the divergence between divisions suggests KOF's diversified footprint is a key risk mitigant but not a clean growth story.
