    In 1960 my family began brewing Australia’s favorite ginger beer and root beer, in the rich farmlands around the rural Queensland town of Bundaberg. Since then we’ve continued following the traditions that made us so successful, so very little has changed in the process, the ingredients, and the time and effort that go into each bottle. In 1985 the business passed into the hands of the next generation and under Cliff Fleming, Chairman and Master Brewer, a new era of expansion and development began. Products such as Lemon Lime & Bitters, were introduced, as well as diet options and the sophisticated flavors of the Sparkling Selection – Guava, Blood Orange, Pink Grapefruit and Peach. New overseas markets were opened up and now our products are being exported to over 30 different countries across the globe. But while we’ve added to our family over the years, and created a long line of refreshingly different beverages, we’ll always be particularly proud of our ginger and root beer brews.

    Coca-Cola Reports Strong Results in Second Quarter; Updates Full Year Guidance Global Unit Case Volume Grew 18% Net Revenues Grew 42%; Organic Revenues (Non-GAAP) Grew 37% Operating Income Grew 52%; Comparable Currency Neutral Operating Income (Non-GAAP) Grew 46% Operating Margin Was 29.8% Versus 27.7% in the Prior Year; Comparable Operating Margin (Non-GAAP) Was 31.7% Versus 30.0% in the Prior Year EPS Grew 48% to $0.61; Comparable EPS (Non-GAAP) Grew 61% to $0.68 ATLANTA, July 21, 2021 – The Coca-Cola Company today reported strong second quarter 2021 results and year-to- date performance. “Our results in the second quarter show how our business is rebounding faster than the overall economic recovery, led by our accelerated transformation. As a result, we are encouraged and, despite the asynchronous nature of the recovery, we are raising our full year guidance,” said James Quincey, Chairman and CEO of The Coca-Cola Company. “We are executing against our growth plans and our system is aligned. We are better equipped than ever to win in this growing, vibrant industry and to accelerate value creation for our stakeholders.” Highlights Quarterly Performance • Revenues: Net revenues grew 42% to $10.1 billion, and organic revenues (non-GAAP) grew 37%. Revenue performance included 26% growth in concentrate sales and 11% growth in price/mix. Revenue growth was driven by the ongoing recovery in markets where coronavirus-related uncertainty is abating, along with the benefit from cycling revenue declines from the impact of the coronavirus pandemic last year. • Margin: Operating margin, which included items impacting comparability, was 29.8% versus 27.7% in the prior year, while comparable operating margin (non-GAAP) was 31.7% versus 30.0% in the prior year.

  • Teaching the Impact of Litigation Costs on The
    FIZZ FIGHT: HOW SODA TAXES AFFECT COCA-COLA’S BUSINESS STRATEGY Margaret Sherman and Harold Weston * I. INTRODUCTION How does a firm respond when government tries to tax away demand for its products? It responds with typical opposition (litigation, public relations, lobbying), and in the case of sugar taxes on soft drinks, by changing its business strategy to offer different products. Thus, in addition to the impact sugar taxes may have on consumer demand behavior, sugar taxes have significant impact on supplier behavior, as this study on The Coca-Cola Company’s responses to soda taxes shows. Since 2012, state and municipal governments in the United States, and in other countries, have considered and implemented taxes on sodas and sugar-sweetened drinks to address the growing obesity epidemic. Such taxes are often called “sin taxes” because they are assessed against products deemed to have a harmful effect in order to decrease consumption of the products. The goal of the sugar taxes (or soda taxes, because the tax applies mainly to soft drinks with sugar) is to discourage consumption and encourage manufacturers to modify their products. In addition, governments have focused on taxing sodas and sugary drinks because the revenue generated by soda taxes can fund public health programs or raise much-needed general revenue for communities.1 The American Heart Association recommends a daily maximum intake of 25 grams of sugar for adult women and 36 grams for adult men. Compare this against a 20-ounce bottle of regular Coca- * Margaret Sherman is Clinical Associate Professor of Legal Studies, and Harold Weston is Clinical Associate Professor of Risk Management and Insurance, at Georgia State University, J.

    How We’re Taking Action In 2014, The Coca-Cola Company joined forces with Dr Pepper Snapple Group and PepsiCo in a landmark agreement to decrease beverage calories in the American diet. The beverage industry set a goal to reduce beverage calories consumed per person nationally 20% by 2025. Since 2014, we’ve taken steps to make this goal a reality.
