Coca-Cola recorded organic sales growth of around 6–7% in the second quarter of 2026, with the increase driven mainly by volumes (+5%) rather than price hikes. The dividend was raised for the 64th consecutive time to $2.12, supported by expected free cash flow of about $12.4 billion. Management raised the full-year outlook and now expects organic revenue growth of roughly 5% and adjusted EPS growth of 9–10%, while the valuation at a P/E of around 27 is considered ambitious. The third-quarter figures on October 27 are seen as decisive, because further share-price development will depend largely on continued volume gains. » Más en finanzen.net
