Third Quarter and First Nine Months 2025 Review
CHARLOTTE, N.C., Oct. 29, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Coca‑Cola Consolidated, Inc. (NASDAQ: COKE) today reported operating results for the third quarter ended September 26, 2025 and the first nine months of fiscal 2025.
“Our third quarter results reflect the ongoing dedication and resilience of our 17,000 teammates,” said J. Frank Harrison, III, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “We are beginning to see early returns on the teammate investment we announced last quarter, as our continued momentum in sales execution has led to solid market share growth across our portfolio. Our strong financial performance has allowed us to execute on our commitment to return capital to stockholders with over $211 million distributed through share repurchases and dividends during 2025.”
Volume was up 3.3% in the third quarter of 2025 and down 1.2% in the first nine months of the year. The first nine months of 2025 had two fewer selling days compared to the first nine months of 2024, which accounted for approximately 0.7% of the first nine-month volume decline. Our Sparkling category volume increased by 1.4% in the third quarter of 2025. The strong Sparkling volume performance was driven primarily by growth within zero-sugar and flavor offerings, while we continued to experience moderating headwinds in demand for Coca-Cola Original Taste. Still volume increased 8.9% in the third quarter of 2025 as a result of strong performance across many brands. Monster, Powerade, smartwater, Core Power, Dasani and Topo Chico all achieved volume growth in the third quarter of 2025, reflecting the strength of the brands and strong consumer demand.
Net sales increased 6.9% to $1.9 billion in the third quarter of 2025 and increased 3.3% to $5.3 billion in the first nine months of 2025. The growth in net sales was primarily the result of annual price increases executed during the first quarter of 2025 and strong volume performance during the third quarter. Sparkling and Still net sales increased 4.7% and 9.9% in the third quarter of 2025, respectively, compared to the third quarter of 2024. The increase in Sparkling category net sales was driven primarily by sales of multi-pack, take-home packages sold within our large store, club and value channels. The increase in Still category net sales was driven primarily by the solid performance of numerous brands across the category sold within large retail and convenience stores.
Gross profit in the third quarter of 2025 was $748.5 million, an increase of $50.5 million, or 7.2%. Gross margin in the third quarter of 2025 improved 10 basis points to 39.6%. Gross profit in the first nine months of 2025 was $2.1 billion, an increase of $62.8 million, or 3.1%. The annual price increases we executed earlier this year across our portfolio have been effective in offsetting the net impact of increased commodity costs, including the continued volatility of import tariffs on aluminum, across our portfolio.
“Our team’s relentless focus on timely, thoughtful execution combined with a strong brand portfolio is resulting in impressive operating results in a demanding retail landscape,” said Dave Katz, President and Chief Operating Officer. “Investments in our supply chain and selling capabilities have allowed us to meet the increasing demands of our customers while delivering profitable growth in a dynamic period of cost inflation. Our business remains healthy, we have momentum in brands throughout our portfolio and we have a customer-focused team executing across our territory, all of which support our ability to continue to deliver strong business performance.”
Selling, delivery and administrative (“SD&A”) expenses in the third quarter of 2025 increased $30.9 million, or 6.6%. The increase in SD&A expenses in the third quarter of 2025 as compared to the third quarter of 2024 was primarily driven by the cost of labor, which includes annual wage adjustments made earlier this year and an additional investment in the base wages of our front-line teammates, which became effective at the beginning of the third quarter. SD&A expenses as a percentage of net sales in the third quarter of 2025 decreased 10 basis points to 26.6% as compared to the third quarter of 2024. SD&A expenses in the first nine months of 2025 increased $55.9 million, or 4.1%. SD&A expenses as a percentage of net sales in the first nine months of 2025 increased 20 basis points to 26.5% as compared to the first nine months of 2024.
Income from operations in the third quarter of 2025 was $246.6 million, compared to $227.1 million in the third quarter of 2024, an increase of 8.6%. Operating margin for the third quarter of 2025 was 13.1% as compared to 12.9% for the third quarter of 2024, an increase of 20 basis points. For the first nine months of 2025, income from operations improved $6.9 million to $708.5 million, an increase of 1.0%. The two fewer selling days in the first nine months of 2025 accounted for an approximately $10 million decrease in income from operations.
Net income in the third quarter of 2025 was $142.3 million, compared to $115.6 million in the third quarter of 2024, an increase of $26.7 million, or 23.1%. On an adjusted(b) basis, net income in the third quarter of 2025 was $179.2 million, compared to $166.7 million in the third quarter of 2024, an increase of $12.5 million, or 7.5%. Income tax expense for the third quarter of 2025 was $49.9 million, compared to $39.9 million for the third quarter of 2024, resulting in an effective income tax rate of approximately 26% for both periods.
Net income in the first nine months of 2025 was $433.3 million, compared to $454.2 million in the first nine months of 2024, a decline of $20.8 million, or 4.6%. On an adjusted(b) basis, net income in the first nine months of 2025 was $510.6 million, compared to $521.9 million in the first nine months of 2024, a decrease of $11.3 million, or 2.2%. Net income for both the first nine months of 2025 and 2024 was adversely impacted by routine, non-cash fair value adjustments to our acquisition related contingent consideration liability, driven by changes in the discount rate and future cash flow projections used to compute the fair value of the liability.
Cash flows from operations for the first nine months of 2025 were $722.9 million, compared to $707.9 million for the first nine months of 2024. In the first nine months of 2025, we invested approximately $210 million in capital expenditures as we continue to optimize our supply chain and invest for future growth. In fiscal year 2025, we expect capital expenditures to be approximately $300 million. In the third quarter of 2025, we returned over $133 million to stockholders through approximately $111 million of share repurchases and approximately $22 million of dividends. Through the first nine months of 2025, we have returned approximately $211 million to stockholders through repurchases and dividends.

| (d) | The Company reports its financial results in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). However, management believes that certain non-GAAP financial measures provide users of the financial statements with additional, meaningful financial information that should be considered, in addition to the measures reported in accordance with GAAP, when assessing the Company’s ongoing performance. Management also uses these non-GAAP financial measures in making financial, operating and planning decisions and in evaluating the Company’s performance. Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative for, the Company’s reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP. The Company’s non-GAAP financial information does not represent a comprehensive basis of accounting. |
