Coca-Cola reported a 58% rise in net income to $3.8 billion for the April-June quarter, even as global case volumes fell by 1%, with higher prices helping the beverage giant offset sluggish sales, particularly in Latin America.Revenue for the quarter rose 1% to $12.5 billion, while adjusted revenue stood at $12.6 billion—in line with Wall Street estimates, according to FactSet. Adjusted earnings per share came in at 87 cents, topping analysts’ forecast of 83 cents.The company said global pricing increased by 6% during the second quarter, helping counter declines in overall volumes. In North America, volumes fell 1%, mirroring the global trend.Among product segments, Coca-Cola Zero Sugar emerged as a bright spot, with volumes rising 14%, even as total Coca-Cola volumes declined. The flagship brand still far outsells its zero-sugar variant, but demand for sugar-free options is rising rapidly.The company, however, did not confirm a claim made by President Donald Trump last week on social media that Coca-Cola would switch to real cane sugar in its US drinks instead of high-fructose corn syrup. Coke only said that new offerings were in the pipeline.In other categories, juice, dairy and plant-based beverages saw volumes drop 4%, while sports drink volumes declined 3%, with gains in North America offset by losses in Latin America.Coca-Cola said it now expects full-year adjusted earnings growth of 8%. Earlier this year, the company had projected 8–10% growth, but lowered that to 7–9% in April. In 2024, Coca-Cola earned $2.88 per share.Coca-Cola shares edged slightly lower in early Tuesday trading, along with broader declines across US markets.
