• Revenues: For the quarter, net revenues grew 2% to $11.8 billion, and organic revenues (non-GAAP) grew 5%, driven by a 4% increase in concentrate sales and 1% growth in price/mix. Concentrate sales were 3 points ahead of unit case volume, driven by the timing of concentrate shipments and one additional day. For the full year, net revenues grew 2% to $47.9 billion, and organic revenues (non-GAAP) grew 5%, driven by 4% growth in price/mix and a 1% increase in concentrate sales. Concentrate sales were 1 point ahead of unit case volume due to the timing of concentrate shipments.
• Operating margin: For the quarter, operating margin was 15.6% versus 23.5% in the prior year, and comparable operating margin (non-GAAP) was 24.4% versus 24.0% in the prior year. For the full year, operating margin was 28.7% versus 21.2% in the prior year, while comparable operating margin (non-GAAP) was 31.2% versus 30.0% in the prior year. For the quarter, operating margin performance included items impacting comparability, including a non-cash impairment charge of $960 million related to the BODYARMOR trademark, as well as currency headwinds. For the full year, operating margin performance included items impacting comparability and currency headwinds. For both the quarter and the full year, comparable operating margin (non-GAAP) expansion was driven by organic revenue (non-GAAP) growth and effective cost management, partially offset by currency headwinds.
• Earnings per share: For the quarter, EPS grew 4% to $0.53, while comparable EPS (non-GAAP) grew 6% to $0.58. EPS performance included the impact of a 9-point currency headwind, while comparable EPS (non-GAAP) performance included the impact of a 5-point currency headwind. For the full year, EPS grew 23% to $3.04, while comparable EPS (non-GAAP) grew 4% to $3.00.

• Cash flow: For the full year, cash flow from operations and free cash flow (non-GAAP) were $7.4 billion and $5.3 billion, respectively, which reflects $6.1 billion of the contingent consideration payment made during the first quarter in conjunction with the acquisition of fairlife, LLC (“fairlife”) in 2020 (“fairlife contingent consideration payment”). Free cash flow excluding the fairlife contingent consideration payment (non-GAAP) was $11.4 billion.

• Recruiting the next generation of consumers through compelling local marketing platforms: During the quarter, the company used integrated marketing campaigns to drive volume growth across multiple global beverage brands. The company continues to focus on consumer passion points and key drinking occasions, coupled with strong commercial execution from bottling partners. For example, Trademark Coca-Cola’s “Rings of Magic” platform engaged younger consumers across approximately 1,500 universities in eight key markets globally, strengthening the brand’s connection to students with local “Study Break” activations. Fanta Halloween, activated in approximately 50 markets, offered immersive local experiences like “The Haunted Fanta Factory,” a limited-time only product launch, five iconic horror-themed packaging designs and increased display and shelf space. Powerade’s integrated activations at local sporting events – such as the FIFA World Cup 2026 CONMEBOL Qualifiers in Latin America and Major League Soccer playoffs in North America – offered exclusive in-person and digital experiences. These marketing activations, along with bold innovations like Powerade Power Water and Powerade Sours, drove increased shelf space, leading to sports drinks gaining global value share.
• Adapting the company to drive enduring growth: To deepen market intimacy, unlock scale and deliver balanced topline growth, the company recently announced a number of key changes. First, to accelerate digital transformation and bring the business closer to consumers, the company has created the role of Chief Digital Officer. This role will unify digital, data and operational excellence, with a clear mandate to enhance speed, effectiveness and efficiency at every level – from consumers to customers to the company itself. Second, the company has appointed two seasoned operators across a set of key geographies to steward broader growth. Additionally, the company will establish innovation hubs and commercial centers of excellence in key markets across all operating segments. These collective actions aim to better position the business to recruit new consumers, lead with marketing and innovation and steer a future-ready system.

The 2026 outlook information provided below includes forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures, which management uses in measuring performance. The company is not able to reconcile full year 2026 projected organic revenues (non-GAAP) to full year 2026 projected reported net revenues, full year 2026 projected comparable net revenues (non-GAAP) to full year 2026 projected reported net revenues, full year 2026 projected underlying effective tax rate (non-GAAP) to full year 2026 projected reported effective tax rate, full year 2026 projected comparable currency neutral EPS excluding acquisitions and divestitures (non-GAAP) to full year 2026 projected reported EPS, or full year 2026 projected comparable EPS (non-GAAP) to full year 2026 projected reported EPS without unreasonable efforts because it is not possible to predict with a reasonable degree of certainty the exact timing and exact impact of acquisitions and divestitures throughout 2026; the exact timing and exact amount of items impacting comparability throughout 2026; and the exact impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates throughout 2026. The unavailable information could have a significant impact on the company’s full year 2026 reported financial results.

Full Year 2026

The company expects to deliver organic revenue (non-GAAP) growth of 4% to 5%.

For comparable net revenues (non-GAAP), the company expects an approximate 1% currency tailwind based on the current rates and including the impact of hedged positions. In addition, the company expects an approximate 4% headwind from acquisitions and divestitures. This assumes the pending sale of Coca-Cola Beverages Africa ("CCBA") closes during the second half of 2026, subject to regulatory approvals.

The company’s underlying effective tax rate (non-GAAP) is estimated to be 20.9%. This does not include the impact of ongoing tax litigation with the U.S. Internal Revenue Service, if the company were not to prevail.

The company expects to deliver comparable currency neutral EPS excluding acquisitions and divestitures (non-GAAP) growth of 5% to 6% and comparable EPS (non-GAAP) growth of 7% to 8% versus $3.00 in 2025.

Comparable EPS (non-GAAP) percentage growth is expected to include an approximate 3% currency tailwind based on the current rates and including the impact of hedged positions. In addition, the company expects an approximate 1% headwind from acquisitions and divestitures. This assumes the pending sale of CCBA closes during the second half of 2026, subject to regulatory approvals.

The company expects to generate free cash flow (non-GAAP) of approximately $12.2 billion. This consists of cash flow from operations of approximately $14.4 billion, less capital expenditures of approximately $2.2 billion.

First Quarter 2026 Considerations

Comparable net revenues (non-GAAP) are expected to include a 2% currency tailwind based on the current rates and including the impact of hedged positions, in addition to a 1% headwind from acquisitions and divestitures.

Comparable EPS (non-GAAP) percentage growth is expected to include a 2% currency tailwind based on the current rates and including the impact of hedged positions.

The first quarter has six additional days compared to the first quarter of 2025.

• All references to growth rate percentages and share compare the results of the period to those of the prior year comparable period, unless otherwise noted.
• All references to volume and volume percentage changes indicate unit case volume, unless otherwise noted. All volume percentage changes are computed based on average daily sales in the fourth quarter, unless otherwise noted, and are computed on a reported basis for the full year. “Unit case” means a unit of measurement equal to 192 U.S. fluid ounces of finished beverage (24 eight-ounce servings), with the exception of unit case equivalents for Costa non-ready-to-drink beverage products, which are primarily measured in number of transactions. “Unit case volume” means the number of unit cases (or unit case equivalents) of company beverages directly or indirectly sold by the company and its bottling partners to customers or consumers.
• “Concentrate sales” represents the amount of concentrates, syrups, beverage bases, source waters and powders/minerals (in all instances expressed in unit case equivalents) sold by, or used in finished beverages sold by, the company to its bottling partners or other customers. For Costa non-ready-to-drink beverage products, “concentrate sales” represents the amount of beverages, primarily measured in number of transactions (in all instances expressed in unit case equivalents), sold by the company to customers or consumers. In the reconciliation of reported net revenues, “concentrate sales” represents the percent change in net revenues attributable to the increase (decrease) in concentrate sales volume for the geographic operating segments after considering the impact of acquisitions and divestitures, if any. For the Bottling Investments operating segment for the fourth quarter, this represents the percent change in net revenues attributable to the increase (decrease) in unit case volume computed based on total sales (rather than average daily sales) in each of the corresponding periods after considering the impact of structural changes, if any. For the Bottling Investments operating segment for the full year, this represents the percent change in net revenues attributable to the increase (decrease) in unit case volume after considering the impact of structural changes, if any. The Bottling Investments operating segment reflects unit case volume growth for consolidated bottlers only.
• “Price/mix” represents the change in net operating revenues caused by factors such as price changes, the mix of products and packages sold, and the mix of channels and geographic territories where the sales occurred.
• First quarter 2025 financial results were impacted by two fewer days as compared to first quarter 2024, and fourth quarter 2025 financial results were impacted by one additional day as compared to fourth quarter 2024. Unit case volume results for the quarters are not impacted by the variances in days due to the average daily sales computation referenced above.

The company is hosting a conference call with investors and analysts to discuss fourth quarter and full year 2025 operating results today, Feb. 10, 2026, at 8:30 a.m. ET. The company invites participants to listen to a live webcast of the conference call on the company’s website, http://www.coca-colacompany.com, in the “Investors” section.
