Investing.com -- Coca-Cola reported better-than-expected third-quarter results and raised its full-year organic revenue growth forecast, sending shares up 1% in early trading.
Organic revenue, which excludes currency impacts and acquisitions, grew 9% YoY, driven by 10% growth in price/mix. However, global unit case volume declined 1% as growth in some markets was offset by declines in China, Mexico and Türkiye. For the full year 2024, Coca-Cola expects organic revenue growth of approximately 10%, at the high end of the previously forecasted range of 9% to 10%. The company cited strong pricing and the impact of high inflation in some markets.
The company maintained its outlook for 5-6% comparable EPS growth for the full year versus $2.69 in 2023.Risk Disclosure: Trading in financial instruments and/or cryptocurrencies involves high risks including the risk of losing some, or all, of your investment amount, and may not be suitable for all investors.
