Third Quarter and First Nine Months 2024 Review

CHARLOTTE, October 30, 2024 – Coca‑Cola Consolidated, Inc. (NASDAQ: COKE) today reported operating results for the third quarter ended September 27, 2024 and the first nine months of fiscal 2024.

“Our third quarter results reflect our steady focus on the operating fundamentals of our business. Strong commercial execution against our world class beverage portfolio, disciplined expense management and building on our purpose-driven culture are at the core of what we do every day,” said J. Frank Harrison, III, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “Our continued solid growth is a testament to the dedication of our teammates and our commitment to reinvest in our business to build long-term value.”

“While we are pleased with our operating results, our teammates and the communities we serve in Western North Carolina and Eastern Tennessee have suffered incredible loss as a result of Hurricane Helene,” Mr. Harrison continued. “Supporting our local communities is foundational to our culture and our Company. We are actively supporting the impacted areas as we partner with relief organizations to help our teammates, customers and communities recover from the destruction.”

Net sales increased 3.1% to $1.8 billion in the third quarter of 2024 and increased 2.6% to $5.2 billion in the first nine months of 2024. Sparkling and Still net sales increased 5.8% and 1.7%, respectively, compared to the third quarter of 2023. The net sales improvement was driven by Sparkling volume growth and pricing actions taken during the first quarter of 2024.

Standard physical case volume was down 2.1% in the third quarter of 2024 and down 1.3% in the first nine months of the year. For the first nine months of 2024, comparable(b) standard physical case volume decreased 0.9% compared to the first nine months of 2023, which included one additional selling day. Sparkling category volume increased 0.8% during the third quarter with continued strong performance of multi-serve can packages sold in larger retail stores. Still category physical case volume declined 9.7% during the third quarter of 2024.

As noted in our second quarter 2024 results, we have shifted the distribution of casepack Dasani water sold in Walmart stores to a non-direct store delivery (DSD) method of distribution. As a result, these cases are not included in our 2024 reported case sales. The 2024 impact of this distribution change reduced our reported case sales by 1.8% during the third quarter and 0.9% during the first nine months.

“Our third quarter results reflect the power of Sparkling volume growth, margin improvement and continued strong commercial execution,” said Dave Katz, President and Chief Operating Officer. “Our Sparkling revenue grew nearly 6% this quarter reflecting the strength of our brands and the success of our price and package strategy. While we have opportunities to improve the performance of our Dasani and BodyArmor brands, we’re excited about upcoming Still category offerings designed to strengthen this segment of our business.”




Gross profit in the third quarter of 2024 was $698.0 million, an increase of $36.5 million or 5.5%. Gross margin improved 90 basis points to 39.5%. Pricing actions taken during the first quarter of 2024 along with stable commodity prices contributed to the overall improvement in gross margin. Additionally, our product mix shifted towards Sparkling beverages, which typically carry higher gross margins, during the third quarter of 2024. Gross profit in the first nine months of 2024 was $2.1 billion, an increase of $98.1 million or 5.0%.

“Our strong, consistent cash flow has allowed us to continue to reinvest in the business, strengthening our supply chain and supporting the Company’s overall growth,” Mr. Katz continued. “During the quarter, we completed the purchase of our leased production facility in Nashville, Tennessee for $56 million. We now own all of our production facilities, which we believe to be strategic assets in our operations.”

Selling, delivery and administrative (“SD&A”) expenses in the third quarter of 2024 increased $25.7 million, or 5.8%. SD&A expenses as a percentage of net sales increased 70 basis points to 26.7% in the third quarter of 2024. The increase in SD&A expenses as compared to the third quarter of 2023 was primarily driven by an increase in labor costs, mostly related to annual wage adjustments and increased incentive compensation accruals reflecting the strong operating performance in 2024. SD&A expenses in the first nine months of 2024 increased $52.5 million or 4.0%. SD&A expenses as a percentage of net sales in the first nine months of 2024 increased 40 basis points to 26.3% as compared to the first nine months of 2023.

Income from operations in the third quarter of 2024 was $227.1 million, compared to $216.3 million in the third quarter of 2023, an increase of 5.0%. For the first nine months of 2024, income from operations increased $45.6 million to $701.6 million, an increase of 7.0%. Operating margin for the first nine months of 2024 was 13.6% as compared to 13.1% for the first nine months of 2023, an increase of 50 basis points.

Net income in the third quarter of 2024 was $115.6 million, compared to $92.1 million in the third quarter of 2023, an improvement of $23.5 million. Net income for the third quarter of 2024 and the third quarter of 2023 was adversely impacted by routine, non-cash fair value adjustments to our acquisition related contingent consideration liability, driven by increases in the future cash flow projections and changes to the discount rate used to compute the fair value of the liability.

Net income in the first nine months of 2024 was $454.2 million, compared to $332.5 million in the first nine months of 2023, an increase of $121.6 million. On an adjusted(b) basis, net income in the first nine months of 2024 was $521.9 million, compared to $488.3 million in the first nine months of 2023, an increase of $33.6 million. Net income for the first nine months of 2023 was adversely impacted by the settlement of our primary pension plan benefit liabilities during the prior year, which resulted in a non-cash charge of $117.1 million. Income tax expense for the first nine months of 2024 was $156.4 million, compared to $112.4 million for the first nine months of 2023, resulting in an effective income tax rate of 25.6% and 25.3% for the first nine months of 2024 and 2023, respectively.




Cash flows provided by operations for the first nine months of 2024 were $707.9 million, compared to $644.5 million for the first nine months of 2023. Cash flows from operations reflected our strong operating performance during the first nine months of 2024. In the first nine months of 2024, we invested $287 million in capital expenditures as we continue to enhance our supply chain and invest for future growth. During the quarter, we purchased our leased Nashville, Tennessee production facility for approximately $56.0 million. For the full year of 2024, we expect capital expenditures to total approximately $350 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 third quarter ended September 27, 2024 and the first nine months of fiscal 2024 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) 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.
