Comments:
KO enjoys a dominant market share around the world. Margins and volumes in KO’s non-carb portfolio should continue to grow as the company expands distribution and is able to hold pricing. KO’s high exposure to international markets should offset small U.S. declines of the Coke unit. Coca-Cola Zero should drive trademark Coca-Cola volumes worldwide. A weakening dollar would provide an additional boost in profits. Risks would include slower than planned growth and adverse foreign currency exchange rates.
