Vita Coco Company (COCO) to Post Q2 Earnings: Things to Note
Read MoreHide Full Article
The Vita Coco Company, Inc. (COCO - Free Report) is slated to report second-quarter 2024 results on Jul 31, before market open. The company is likely to report top and bottom-line growth when it posts the quarterly results.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the company’s earnings is pegged at 31 cents per share, which indicates an increase of 19.2% from the year-ago quarter’s reported figure. The consensus mark has remained stable in the past 30 days.
For second-quarter revenues, the consensus mark is pegged at $143.5 million, indicating a 2.7% rise from the year-ago quarter’s reported figure.
In the last reported quarter, the company delivered an earnings surprise of 26.3%. It delivered a trailing four-quarter average earnings surprise of 25.3%.
Key Factors to Note
Vita Coco Company’s quarterly performance is expected to have benefited from its strength in brands and the solid execution of its strategic efforts. Its consistent focus on driving growth in the coconut water category and expanding its share in the category appears encouraging. Its flagship brand has been performing well for a while. Apart from experiencing solid branded retail growth, the company has been witnessing higher private label coconut water volumes.
In addition, Vita Coco Company’s commercial initiatives related to the Vita Coco multi-packs, Vita Coco Farmers Organic and Vita Coco Juice are likely to have contributed to its performance. The company’s focus on expanding consumption occasions of coconut water is likely to have driven the category’s and the flagship Vita Coco Coconut Water brand’s performance. All the aforementioned strengths, coupled with its focus on growing the core business and a solid international business, are likely to have bolstered the bottom and top-line performance.
On the flip side, a tough macroeconomic landscape, including uncertainty related to the operating environment, global economies and geopolitical issues, is a concern. The company has been witnessing higher SG&A expenses for a while. Management, in its last earnings call, cited that the elevated certain ocean freight routes are anticipated to hurt the gross margin starting the second quarter and the impact is likely to have been severe in the impending quarter.
