Keurig Dr Pepper (KDP) to report earnings tomorrow: here is what to expect

What happened

Keurig Dr Pepper is due to report results Tuesday before the market opens. Last quarter, it reported revenue of $7.31 billion, up 75.6% year on year, and beat analysts’ revenue and earnings-per-share estimates. Analysts expect this quarter’s revenue to rise 70.1% year on year.

Confirmed

Global impact / market context

The upcoming report will show whether Keurig Dr Pepper’s sales growth meets the 70.1% increase analysts expect. Revenue and earnings-per-share results can influence investor views of the company’s ability to turn sales into profit, while any change to its full-year outlook may shift expectations for future performance.

Analyst inference

Analysts have generally kept their estimates unchanged over the past 30 days, indicating little recent change in expectations. Peer results have varied: Vita Coco’s revenue grew 33.7% and beat estimates, while Coca-Cola’s rose 7.6% and also beat. These figures provide context, not a guarantee of Keurig Dr Pepper’s results.

Analyst inference

What to watch

1. Check reported revenue against the expected 70.1% year-on-year growth; a shortfall or beat could change investors’ view of the company’s sales momentum. Analyst inference
2. Compare earnings per share, meaning profit allocated to each share, with analyst estimates to see whether last quarter’s earnings beat has continued. Analyst inference
3. Look for any update to full-year revenue guidance, which is the company’s forecast; last quarter, its guidance matched analysts’ expectations. Analyst inference
