COCA-COLA'S BALANCE SHEET
3 LESSONS FOR INVESTORS
COCA-COLA'S BALANCE SHEET
CASTS LIGHT ON THREE OF THE
BEVERAGE GIANT'S MOST
IMPORTANT TRAITS.
SIZE | LIQUIDITY | SOLVENCY
ASSETS & EQUITY
ARE THERE ENOUGH CURRENT
ASSETS (CASH & EQUIVALENTS) TO
COVER CURRENT LIABILITIES?
DOES EQUITY EXCEED DEBT?
SIZE | LIQUIDITY | SOLVENCY
THESE TRAITS GIVE INVESTORS A
SENSE OF COCA-COLA'S GROWTH
POTENTIAL, AS WELL AS OF THE
VULNERABILITY OF ITS BUSINESS
MODEL.
BEFORE DIGGING INTO THESE
TRAITS, LET’S BRIEFLY REVIEW THE
BALANCE SHEET ITSELF.
EQUITY
LIABILITIES
ASSETS
THE BALANCE SHEET
1. THE BALANCE SHEET
REVEALS A COMPANY’S
ASSETS, LIABILITIES,
AND OWNERS’ EQUITY
ON THE FINAL DAY OF A
FISCAL QUARTER OR
YEAR.
2. THIS IS WHY IT’S
OFTEN REFERRED TO AS
A SNAPSHOT OF A
COMPANY’S FINANCIAL
CONDITION.
3. THE “ACCOUNTING
EQUATION” HOLDS THAT
ASSETS MUST ALWAYS
EQUAL LIABILITIES PLUS
OWNERS’ EQUITY.
1. SIZE
YOU PROBABLY WON'T BE
SURPRISED TO HEAR THAT COCA-
COLA IS ONE OF THE BIGGEST
COMPANIES IN AMERICA.

$93 billion

4 WAYS TO MEASURE COCA-COLA'S SIZE
FOUND ON COCA-COLA'S BALANCE SHEET
57TH64TH COCA-COLA IS THE 57TH
BIGGEST COMPANY ON THE
S&P 500 BASED ON EQUITY.
IT'S THE 64TH LARGEST WHEN
MEASURED BY ASSETS.
THANKS TO COCA-COLA'S ALREADY
CONSIDERABLE SIZE, IT ISN'T LIKELY
TO GROW AS FAST AS, SAY, A NEWLY
LISTED GROWTH STOCK.
2. LIQUIDITY
THE CURRENT RATIO IS A COMMON WAY
TO MEASURE LIQUIDITY.
IT’S CALCULATED BY DIVIDING A
COMPANY’S CURRENT ASSETS BY ITS
CURRENT LIABILITIES.
$37 BILLION
$32 BILLION
= 1.16

54% OF S&P 500 COMPANIES
HAVE CURRENT RATIOS
BETWEEN 0.75 AND 2.0
THE CURRENT RATIOS OF THE 100
BIGGEST S&P 500 COMPANIES
BY THIS MEASURE, THEN, COCA-
COLA'S LIQUIDITY IS WITHIN THE
USUAL RANGE, FALLING BETWEEN
0.75 AND 2.0.
3. SOLVENCY
LAST BUT NOT LEAST IS SOLVENCY,
WHICH IS MEASURED BY THE DEBT-TO-
EQUITY RATIO.
THIS IS CALCULATED BY DIVIDING A
COMPANY’S DEBT BY ITS EQUITY.
$46 BILLION
$26 BILLION
= 1.77

COCA-COLA'S
DEBT-TO-EQUITY
RATIO
THERE’S NO HARD-AND-FAST RULE
WHEN IT COMES TO THE DEBT-TO-
EQUITY RATIO, THOUGH A SMALLER
RATIO (LESS THAN 1) IMPLIES THAT A
COMPANY IS BETTER POSITIONED TO
SURVIVE AN INTERUPTION TO ITS
REVENUE.
HOW DOES COCA-COLA'S DEBT-TO-
EQUITY RATIO COMPARE?

IBM MCD COST PG JNJ XOM KO
WHILE COCA-COLA'S DEBT-TO-
EQUITY RATIO EXCEEDS 1.0, IT'S IN
GOOD COMPANY, AS 185 OTHER S&P
500 COMPANIES ARE IN THE SAME
BOAT.
