The revenue is 9.1% above that of Q3 2024, and management explained that the growth came on the back of increases across all business units, including favorable currency exchange rates and effects from mergers and acquisitions.​

The decline was attributed to a non-cash foreign exchange loss of 1.3 billion Mexican pesos relating to the company’s US dollar-denominated cash position.
