COCA COLA CO 8K

Coca-Cola reported strong Q2 2026 results with 7% revenue and 16% EPS growth and raised its full-year 2026 guidance for organic revenue, EPS, and free cash flow, citing solid global volume, margin expansion, and major marketing initiatives.

The Coca-Cola Company filed a Form 8‑K to furnish its second quarter 2026 earnings release, reporting strong operational and financial performance and raising its full-year 2026 guidance. For the quarter ended July 3, 2026, global unit case volume grew 5%, net revenues increased 7% to $13.4 billion, and organic revenues (non‑GAAP) rose 6%, driven by a 4% increase in concentrate sales and 2% price/mix growth. Operating income grew 9%, while comparable operating margin expanded to 35.6% from 34.7% in the prior year, supported by organic revenue growth, lower operating expenses and currency tailwinds, partially offset by higher input costs and increased marketing investment. Diluted EPS rose 16% to $1.03, and comparable EPS (non‑GAAP) increased 11% to $0.97, both benefiting from currency tailwinds. The company highlighted strong brand and market share performance, including value share gains in most regions, robust growth for Trademark Coca‑Cola and Coca‑Cola Zero Sugar, and incremental volume from innovation and major marketing activations such as the FIFA World Cup 2026™ campaign. Coca‑Cola also provided updated 2026 guidance, raising its outlook for organic revenue growth to approximately 5%, comparable EPS growth to 9–10%, and free cash flow to about $12.4 billion, and noted expectations for a modest currency tailwind and a headwind from acquisitions and divestitures, including the pending sale of its bottling operations in Africa.
