Net sales revenue per hectoliter increased 3.6 % , on a brand volume basis in constant currency , primarily due to strong net pricing , favorable brand mix related to portfolio premiumization and the favorable impact of channel mix as the on - premise reopens further . U.S. GAAP net income attributable to Molson Coors Beverage Company ( MCBC ) of $ 453.0 million , $ 2.08 per share on a diluted basis . Non - GAAP diluted EPS of $ 1.75 per share increased 8.0 % . Underlying ( Non - GAAP ) EBITDA of $ 642.6 million decreased 10.9 % in constant currency as net sales revenue growth and lower general and administrative expenses were more than offset by increases in cost of goods sold and higher marketing spend . CEO AND CFO PERSPECTIVES We laid out our revitalization plan two years ago and can proudly say we continue to make progress against that plan . Our third quarter successes included our biggest brand , Coors Light , growing total share of beer in the U.S. Our Above Premium portfolio's net sales revenue has surpassed 25 % of our brand volume net sales revenue on a trailing twelve month basis for the first time since the revitalization plan was announced . We have also grown share of the U.S. Above Premium segment for two straight quarters for the first time in over five years . And with three months still left in the year , we have sold nearly two million cases of non - alcohol products for the first time in company history as we continue to deliver against our beyond beer ambitions . The momentum we have established and gains we have made come against an incredibly difficult backdrop of global supply chain challenges and transportation cost inflation . 1
