Coca-Cola results: Revenue rises 7% to $10.8 billion, beats forecasts

Coca-Cola reported higher-than-expected revenue in the fourth quarter as growth in Mexico, Germany and other markets offset lower demand in the US. Revenue rose 7 per cent to USD 10.8 billion for the October-December period, the Atlanta beverage giant said Tuesday. That topped Wall Street's forecast of USD 10.7 billion, according to analysts polled by FactSet. Revenue growth will likely moderate this year, Coke said. The company expects full-year organic revenue will grow 6 per cent to 7 per cent this year, down from last year's 12 per cent growth. Coke's revenue got a 10 per cent boost from higher prices last year, but those price increases are expected to moderate along with inflation. Unit case volumes rose 2 per cent in the quarter, led by sparkling soft drinks, juices and Coca-Cola Zero Sugar. Sports drinks, coffee and tea all saw lower demand.
