Mondelez International stock holds near its yearly low

Mondelez International (ISIN US6092071058) stock closed at USD 60.44 on Nasdaq on September 21, 2026, while its 52-week range ran from USD 51.20 to USD 66.65. The price was 9.3 percent below the yearly high, putting valuation and margin pressure at the center of the current investor debate.

Cocoa costs pressure margins

As Ad Hoc News reported on September 21, 2026, cocoa inflation was weighing on Mondelez margins. The same report cited a stock price of USD 60.85 against an analyst target of USD 69.13, a gap of USD 8.28.

The cost issue matters because the company combines global brands with substantial exposure to chocolate. Higher cocoa input costs can narrow profitability unless pricing, pack-size changes and volume management offset the pressure.

Revenue remains the scale anchor

According to Zonebourse data dated September 23, 2026, Mondelez reported fiscal 2025 revenue of USD 38.537 billion, compared with USD 36.441 billion in fiscal 2024. That represents an increase of USD 2.096 billion, or 5.8 percent.

The profitability comparison is less favorable. The same September 23, 2026 overview lists fiscal 2025 EBITDA of USD 6.432 billion versus USD 7.201 billion in fiscal 2024, a decline of USD 769 million, or 10.7 percent. Revenue growth therefore has not translated into comparable EBITDA growth.

Dividend date adds a checkpoint

Zonebourse lists a dividend detachment date of September 30, 2026, with a dividend of USD 0.52. The date gives shareholders a defined near-term event, while the wider stock picture remains tied to the balance between brand pricing and cocoa-related cost inflation.

Stock stays above the yearly low

Mondelez International stock stood at USD 60.44 on Nasdaq as of the September 21, 2026 close. Its market capitalization was about USD 77.66 billion and recent volume was about 17.72 million shares in the September 18, 2026 market-data snapshot.
