KDP on earnings call: New Dr Pepper.1 Zup flavors boosted sales

Keurig Dr Pepper Inc. (KDP) reported its second-quarter (Q2) 2025 earnings today, with the company highlighting strong sales driven by new Dr Pepper.1 Zup flavors. The beverage company reported revenue of $4.16 billion, up 6.1% year over year, and a non-GAAP profit of $0.49 per share, in line with analyst consensus estimates [1].

The company's performance was bolstered by robust demand for its higher-priced ready-to-drink beverages, including Yoo-Hoo and Crush, as well as the popularity of its majority-owned energy-drink maker, Ghost. The new Dr Pepper.1 Zup flavors, introduced earlier this year, contributed significantly to the sales growth, as consumers embraced the innovative taste options [2].

Despite the earnings beat, Keurig Dr Pepper's shares fell 2.1% following the announcement, likely due to concerns about the company's coffee segment, which has been facing challenges [3]. However, the company remains optimistic about its long-term prospects, with management reaffirming its full-year guidance for 2025 [4].

Investors should keep an eye on the company's upcoming earnings call, scheduled for later this week, where management is expected to provide more details on the company's performance and future growth prospects. Analysts expect Keurig Dr Pepper to deliver a generally in-line Q2, although sales are likely to be softer than expected [5].
