Second Quarter and First Half 2025 Review
CHARLOTTE, N.C., July 24, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Coca-Cola Consolidated, Inc. (NASDAQ: COKE) today reported operating results for the second quarter ended June 27, 2025 and the first half of fiscal 2025.
"We're pleased to report very solid second quarter results as we kicked off the summer selling season with strong marketplace execution across our territory," said J. Frank Harrison, III, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "Our ongoing focus on top-line growth and margin management is producing steady profit growth and substantial cash flow. These strong, sustained results have allowed us to make an investment in our greatest asset, our teammates, to improve retention and in-store execution. We look forward to continued success in the second half of the year as our 17,000 dedicated teammates serve our customers, consumers and communities with purpose."
Volume was down 0.8% in the second quarter of 2025 and down 3.5% in the first half of the year. The first half of 2025 had two fewer selling days compared to the first half of 2024, which accounted for approximately 1.0% of the volume decline during the first half of 2025. Our Sparkling category volume declined slightly by 0.3% in the second quarter of 2025 and 2.6% in the first half of 2025. Coca-Cola Original taste continued to be negatively impacted by shifts in consumer demand with the balance of our Sparkling portfolio recording solid growth during the second quarter of 2025. Still volume declined 2.4% and 6.3% in the second quarter and first half of 2025, respectively. Volume of our Dasani water packages was down during the second quarter; however, we experienced solid volume growth in our enhanced water, energy and protein products. Excluding Dasani, volume within our Still category increased by 2.0% in the second quarter of 2025 and 0.3% in the first half of 2025.
Net sales increased 3.3% to $1.9 billion in the second quarter of 2025 and increased 1.4% to $3.4 billion in the first half of 2025. Sparkling and Still net sales increased 3.0% and 4.8% in the second quarter of 2025, respectively, compared to the second quarter of 2024. Sales within supermarkets, club stores and value channels were strong during the second quarter of 2025 as consumers sought value in take-home packages, while sales slowed in our small store convenience outlets and eating and drinking on-premise locations. The increase in Sparkling category sales during the quarter was driven by pricing realization and solid growth within zero-sugar and other flavor offerings, partially offset by softness in Coca-Cola Original taste. The increase in sales within our Still category was concentrated in our Monster Energy, Core Power, Topo Chico and smartwater brands.
Gross profit in the second quarter of 2025 was $742.5 million, an increase of $25.8 million, or 3.6%. Gross margin in the second quarter of 2025 improved 10 basis points to 40.0%. Pricing realization associated with the annual price increase in the first quarter of 2025 contributed to the modest gross margin expansion. Gross profit in the first half of 2025 was $1.4 billion, an increase of $12.3 million, or 0.9%.
"We are successfully navigating a demanding retail environment as our customers and consumers are increasingly prioritizing value," said Dave Katz, President and Chief Operating Officer. "Our commercial planning anticipated the need for a broad range of packages and prices that would appeal to value-conscious consumers. Our steady investments in supply chain capabilities over the past several years have enabled us to be highly responsive to this evolving marketplace."
Selling, delivery and administrative ("SD&A") expenses in the second quarter of 2025 increased $12.8 million, or 2.8%. SD&A expenses in the first half of 2025 increased $25.0 million, or 2.8%. The increase in SD&A expenses in the second quarter and first half of 2025 as compared to the second quarter and first half of 2024 was primarily driven by an increase in labor costs related to annual wage adjustments. SD&A expenses as a percentage of net sales in the second quarter of 2025 decreased 10 basis points to 25.4% as compared to the second quarter of 2024. SD&A expenses as a percentage of net sales in the first half of 2025 increased 30 basis points to 26.4% as compared to the first half of 2024.
Income from operations in the second quarter of 2025 was $272.1 million, compared to $259.1 million in the second quarter of 2024, an increase of 5.0%. Operating margin for the second quarter of 2025 was 14.7% as compared to 14.4% for the second quarter of 2024, an increase of 30 basis points. For the first half of 2025, income from operations decreased $12.6 million to $461.9 million, a decline of 2.7%. The two fewer selling days in the first half of 2025 accounted for approximately $10 million of the decrease in income from operations.
Net income in the second quarter of 2025 was $187.4 million, compared to $172.8 million in the second quarter of 2024, an increase of $14.6 million, or 8.4%. On an adjusted(b) basis, net income in the second quarter of 2025 was $195.2 million, compared to $192.8 million in the second quarter of 2024, an increase of $2.4 million, or 1.2%. Income tax expense for the second quarter of 2025 was $65.6 million, compared to $59.4 million for the second quarter of 2024, resulting in an effective income tax rate of approximately 26% for both periods.
Net income in the first half of 2025 was $291.0 million, compared to $338.6 million in the first half of 2024, a decline of $47.6 million, or 14.0%. On an adjusted(b) basis, net income in the first half of 2025 was $331.4 million, compared to $355.2 million in the first half of 2024, a decrease of $23.8 million, or 6.7%. Net income for the first half of 2025 was adversely impacted by routine, non-cash fair value adjustments to our acquisition related contingent consideration liability, driven primarily by a decrease in the discount rate and changes in the future cash flow projections used to compute the fair value of the liability.
Cash flows from operations for the first half of 2025 were $406.2 million, compared to $437.1 million for the first half of 2024. In the first half of 2025, we invested approximately $157 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.
(a) All comparisons are to the corresponding period in the prior year unless specified otherwise.
(b) The discussion of the operating results for the second quarter ended June 27, 2025 and the first half of fiscal 2025 includes selected non-GAAP financial information, such as "comparable" and "adjusted" results. The schedules in this news release reconcile such non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.

(c) All share or per share amounts impacting the net income per share amounts have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the effects of a 10-for-1 forward stock split executed by the Company during the second quarter of 2025.
(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.
