Summary
Coca-Cola Europacific Partners reported H1 2026 revenue of €10.72 billion, up 4.4% year-over-year, driven by volume and pricing gains in zero sugar, energy, and hydration categories. Diluted EPS rose 9.1% to €2.17, with operating profit reaching €1.46 billion, pretax profit of €1.34 billion, and net profit of €967 million. The company reaffirmed full-year guidance for 3-4% revenue growth, about 7% operating profit growth, and at least €1.7 billion in comparable free cash flow. This follows the recent completion of the first €500 million tranche of its €1 billion buyback program, with the second tranche underway. The results demonstrate resilient demand and effective pricing in a challenging consumer environment, supporting the stock near its 52-week high.
