Coca-Cola Co.’s stock rose 1.1% premarket Wednesday, after the drinks and snacks giant beat second-quarter earnings estimates and raised its guidance after again raising prices in an inflationary environment.

Atlanta-based Coca-Cola
KO,
+1.21%
posted net income of $2.547 billion, or 59 cents a share, in the quarter, up from $1.905 billion, or 44 cents a share, in the year-earlier period. Adjusted per-share earnings came to 78 cents, ahead of the 72 cent FactSet consensus.

Revenue rose 6% to $11.972 billion from $11.325 billion, also ahead of the $11.742 billion FactSet consensus.

Revenue was driven by 10% growth in price/mix and growth in sales of concentrate, which were 1 point ahead of unit case volume, mostly due to the timing of concentrate shipments.

The company also gained share in total nonalcoholic ready-to-drink beverages.

The company said it is focused on reinvigorating some of its iconic brands, including Minute Maid, now more than 60 years at Coca-Cola, which has become the world’s biggest juice brand. The company launched a sparkling version of Minute Maid in China and an “Aguas Frescas” version in North America and conducted a global rebrand with a new look.

It has also been working on affordable entry packs, which led to double-digit basket growth in Vietnam, and double-digit household penetration in Japan with the ‘Mini pack, Mini Price,” ad campaign.

Unit case volume was down 1% in North America, as growth in sparkling flavors and juice, value-added dairy and plant-based beverages was more than offset by declines in water, sports, coffee and tea as well as traditional Coca-Cola.

“The strength of our first half results and the resiliency of our business give us the confidence to raise our 2023 guidance,” Chief Executive James Quincey said in a statement.

The company is now expecting full-year organic revenue growth of 8% to 9%. It expects adjusted organic EPS growth of 9% to 11%.

The stock has fallen 2% in the year through Tuesday’s close, while the S&P 500
SPX,
+0.25%
has gained 19%.
