Drinks manufacturer Coca-Cola HBC AG posted a strong performance for the 12 months ended 31 December 2025, with reported revenue increasing by 7.9% to around £10.1bn.

The business saw its operating profit go up by 10.1% to £1.2bn and net profit increase by 14.6% to around £819m.

This was driven by an increase in demand for alcohol-free drinks globally, with the non-alcoholic ready-to-drink range experiencing its sixth consecutive year of share gains.

Additionally, there was a strong category performance in the energy drinks sector with brands such as Monster, Predator and Fury, as well as marketing partnerships which boosted transactions, including the “Share a Coke” campaign.

Zoran Bogdanovic, CEO of Coca-Cola HBC AG, said: “We have delivered strong growth for the fifth consecutive year, driven by focused execution of our strategic priorities.

“We have continued with targeted investments behind bespoke capabilities, focused on digital, data and AI solutions, to enable segmented execution and growth.”

The business experienced organic revenue growth across its established, developing and emerging segments despite a “mixed market environment”.

Moving forward, the consumer goods giant expects “a challenging macroeconomic and geopolitical environment”, but remains confident in the brand portfolio’s capabilities to deliver results that meet targets.
