Keurig Dr Pepper Inc. on Thursday said profits fell in its
second quarter, as increased prices were unable to offset as
supply-chain snarls.
The Burlington, Mass.-based beverage company said net income
fell to $218 million, or 15 cents a share, from $448 million, or 31
cents a share, in the previous year.
The company reported adjusted per-share earnings of 39 cents, in
line with what analysts polled by FactSet were expecting.
Revenue rose to $3.55 billion from $3.14 billion in the prior
year. Analysts were expecting revenue of $3.38 billion, according
to FactSet.
"We remain confident that our 'all-weather' business model will
enable us to deliver in the ongoing volatile macro environment,"
Chief Executive Bob Gamgort said.
The company increased prices as a result of inflationary
pressures and faced supply-chain disruption, particularly in coffee
and non-carbonated beverage production, he said.
