From COCA COLA CO's FY2025 10-K, filed Feb 20, 2026 · read the filing
COCA COLA makes food and drink. It took in $47.94B last year, which makes it a large company. Of every dollar it sells, about 27 cents is left as profit.
The financial picture is led by profitability and accounting, with growth and debt worth watching.
A conclusion from the filings, not a recommendation. Detailed figures and supporting evidence appear in their dedicated sections below.
Recent open-market selling by 5 insiders, not under a pre-arranged plan.
$33.6M sold in the last 120 days · Read the filing
These are things the company filed or that a published model flagged — not predictions, and not a reason on their own to buy or sell anything.

Measured against FY2024, from the 10-K filed Feb 20, 2026
Improved: +37.7%
$9.99B to $13.76BSignificant
Why it matters: Profit from running the business, before interest and tax. Less exposed than profit to one-off financing and tax items, so a clearer read on the business itself.
Improved: +23.3%
$10.63B to $13.11BSignificant
Why it matters: Profit swings far more than sales do, and one-off items — a legal settlement, a tax charge, an asset sale — move it without the underlying business changing.
How the latest move compares (quote live), and what was published around it
KO rose 2.87% on the latest quote. The average Consumer Staples company tracked here moved +4.09%, and the S&P 500 −1.04%. That is 1.2 points below its sector and 3.9 points above the market.
Expectations
Not from the filings — what other people are betting on, and what the price already assumes.
Opinions from 34 analysts covering this company, as of . Their views, not this site's.
Of 34 analysts publishing on this company, 8 say strong buy, 19 say buy and 7 say hold. Analysts are paid to publish a view and are wrong often; the split above says how much they agree with each other, which is the part a single headline rating hides.
Published by Finnhub. Analyst coverage skews towards larger companies and towards optimism — sell ratings are rare across the whole market, so a company with none is ordinary rather than endorsed.
The essentials
Each answered from the filings, with the numbers behind it.
Yes. It keeps about 27 cents of every dollar of sales as profit, earning $13.11B last year.
Barely. Sales were roughly flat, up 1.9%.
Manageable, but notable. Clearing its debt would take about 4.5 years of cash flow. For every $1 it owes, it owns $1.44 in assets.
Core operating and valuation reference metrics
Whether the dividend is covered by what the business actually earns
It pays out 67 cents of every dollar of profit, which leaves little room for the payment to survive a bad year. It paid out 119% of the cash its operations generated. It has paid in each of the last 12 years.
MixedFigures from the FY2025 annual filing
Last year it earned $13.11B and generated $7.41B of cash from operations.

Every figure above traces back to a filing in the timeline, each linked to the document itself.
The 37 subsidiaries named in its 10-K, incorporated across 20 places. A filer lists the significant ones and may leave the rest out, so this is the floor rather than the full count.
Every company's figures are checked for internal consistency: the balance sheet adding up, figures sharing one currency, cash flow and share counts within plausible ranges, and how recent the latest annual report is. Nothing here changes a figure.
Financial figures are from KO's 10-K for fiscal year 2025 (period ending 2025-12-31, filed Feb 20, 2026), reported under the US GAAP taxonomy. View the source filing. Total liabilities were not tagged directly and were calculated as assets minus equity.
4 of 4 scored areas had enough reported figures to judge
The score averages profitability, growth, debt and accounting. All four had enough reported figures. Cash generation is shown for context and already feeds profitability. Valuation is scored separately, because a share price says nothing about whether the business is sound. 9 of the 9 Piotroski checks could be evaluated. How the score works
Each year scored only from its annual report as it was first filed
| Fiscal year | Health | F-Score | Scored from |
|---|---|---|---|
| FY2025 | 8.0 | 7/9 | 10-K, filed Feb 20, 2026 |
| FY2024 | 8.0 | 4/9 | 10-K, filed Feb 20, 2025 |
| FY2023 | 9.0 | 8/9 | 10-K, filed Feb 20, 2024 |
| FY2022 | 9.0 | 7/9 | 10-K, filed Feb 21, 2023 |
| FY2021 | 10.0 | 8/9 | 10-K, filed Feb 22, 2022 |
| FY2020 | 7.0 | 5/9 | 10-K, filed Feb 25, 2021 |
A later restatement never reaches back into an earlier year, and every year is scored without a share price, so the latest point can differ a little from the headline score, which uses today's price.
Every check behind the three models, and what each one tests
7 of 9 checks passed
Nine yes-or-no tests of whether this year's finances improved on last year's.
5.46
In the safe zone
For this model, above 2.99 is safe and below 1.81 is distress.
Distance from bankruptcy, from a model fitted on companies that did and did not go bust. It describes a balance sheet's shape today; it does not forecast a failure.
-2.35
Below the threshold — nothing unusual flagged
Scores above -1.78 are the ones the model associates with earnings manipulation.
Screens eight accounting ratios for the pattern earnings manipulators tend to leave. A flag is a reason to read the filing closely, never evidence of wrongdoing.
Every figure above comes from the FY2025 filing as filed with the SEC.
Improved: +7.5 pts
21.2% to 28.7%Significant
Why it matters: What survives each sale after running the business. A falling operating margin beside a steady gross margin points at overheads — wages, marketing, research — rather than pricing.
Improved: +4.8 pts
22.6% to 27.3%Significant
Why it matters: What survives to the very end of each sale. Worth reading beside revenue: growing sales on a shrinking margin means the company is buying its growth.
Improved: +23.6%
$2.47 to $3.05Significant
Why it matters: Profit divided by the shares in issue at the period end, so it sits close to but not on the company's own reported figure. It can rise with no growth in profit when the company buys back stock — read it beside the share count.
Improved: +11.7%
$4.74B to $5.30BNotable
Why it matters: Cash left after paying for the plant that produced it — the money genuinely available for dividends, buybacks or paying down debt. Harder to flatter than profit.
Deteriorated: -5.2%
$10.83B to $10.27BNotable
Why it matters: A falling cash pile is only a warning if the company is consuming it. Paying down debt, buying back stock and paying a dividend all reduce cash by choice.
Changed: +5.0%
$8.36B to $8.78BNotable
Why it matters: Cash handed to shareholders. A rise can be a higher dividend or simply more shares, and a cut is a decision the company explains in its own filing — neither is rated here.

$0.77 to $0.91Significant

Improved: +25.6%
$8.42B to $10.57BSignificant
Why it matters: A falling cash pile is only a warning if the company is consuming it. Paying down debt, buying back stock and paying a dividend all reduce cash by choice.
Improved: +12.1%
$11.13B to $12.47BNotable
Why it matters: Sales are what everything else is built on. A fall can be lost customers, lower prices, or a business the company sold — the filing itself says which.
Improved: +12.7%
$6.97B to $7.85BNotable
Why it matters: What is left of sales after the direct cost of producing them. It normally moves with revenue, so a move out of step with revenue is the part worth noticing.
Improved: +2.1 pts
32.9% to 35.0%Notable
Why it matters: What survives each sale after running the business. A falling operating margin beside a steady gross margin points at overheads — wages, marketing, research — rather than pricing.
Improved: +1.5 pts
29.9% to 31.5%Notable
Why it matters: What survives to the very end of each sale. Worth reading beside revenue: growing sales on a shrinking margin means the company is buying its growth.
Improved: -10.3%
$43.53B to $39.06BNotable
Why it matters: Rising debt is not automatically bad — borrowing to build something that earns more than the interest is ordinary. It matters when it grows faster than the profit meant to service it.
Changed: -13.9%
$309.0M to $266.0MNotable
Why it matters: Neither good nor bad on its own. Heavy spending is a company building capacity or a company struggling to stand still, and the two look identical in this figure.
6 other measures barely moved. Figures compare the two most recent annual filings — read the latest one. Moves are graded on fixed lines — 5%, 15% and 40% for amounts, and 1, 3 and 8 points for margins — as notable, significant or critical. Nothing here reads the management commentary, which is where a company explains its own numbers.
These coincide with the move in time. None is presented as its cause: a price can move on news that names no company, on the wider market, or on trading that no document records.

Measured on and published about a week later — this is a fortnightly snapshot, not a live position.
About 1.2% of this company's shares have been borrowed and sold by people expecting to buy them back cheaper. That is a bet the price falls. Those people can be wrong, and when a heavily shorted share rises they have to buy it back, which pushes it up further.
Collected by FINRA from broker-dealers twice a month. It counts positions, not intentions, and some of it is hedging rather than a directional bet against the company.
Nothing in this section is a figure this company reported about itself. These are expectations and positions — what the price implies, what analysts have published, what short sellers are betting, and what large funds held at the last count. WylthIQ reports them; it does not endorse them, does not forecast prices, and takes no view on whether any of them will turn out to be right.
The trailing P/E is 27.8x — investors pay $27.8 for each $1 of trailing profit.
Nothing unusual. Its accounting patterns look like those of companies that report earnings straightforwardly.
