what happened
Coca-Cola is scheduled to publish its third-quarter results on Tuesday before the market opens, Earnings Preview reports, citing FactSet estimates. Analysts expect net income of $3.79 billion, up from $3.7 billion a year earlier. Adjusted earnings are seen at 88 cents a share versus 82 cents, and revenue at $12.92 billion compared with $12.46 billion.
Organic growth is forecast to ease to 4.6% from 6% a year ago. The stock has gained 12% over the past three months and recently traded near $92.45. Chief Executive Henrique Braun said last month that the global consumer backdrop remains uneven, with lower-income shoppers under strain.
why it matters
Investors will look for signs of how consumers in the U.S. and abroad are coping with pressure on spending. Case volume rose 5% in the second quarter, and a new deal to supply drinks to KFC's U.S. restaurants from January takes a major customer away from PepsiCo.
