The Coca-Cola Company (NYSE:KO)’s stock has gained 10% year-to-date, primarily on the back of a 10% jump early in the year. The shares jumped in February after the firm’s Q4 2024 earnings results saw its $11.54 billion in revenue and $0.55 in EPS beat analyst estimates of $10.68 billion and $0.52. Since then, it’s been smooth sailing for The Coca-Cola Company (NYSE:KO)’s shares as they have managed to recover from all major dips. Cramer’s previous comments about the firm have commented on the potential impact on the firm’s business from President Trump’s demand to use sugarcane. Here are his latest thoughts about The Coca-Cola Company (NYSE:KO):

“Of course the obvious one that everyone’s gonna look at to see if it’s gonna down is Coca-Cola which down to seven cents. Coca-Cola’s, Buffett, and Coca-Cola’s really, you know Coca-Cola, James Quincy. He’s made the quarter, made the quarter, made the quarter, made the quarter. He’s been remarkable.”

Cramer discussed The Coca-Cola Company (NYSE:KO) in detail after its earnings in July. Here is what he said:

“There’s going to be cane sugar, everywhere. You’d be able to get it. . .the President likes it. He’s in charge, the President.

“Well I just think that Coca-Cola was actually a good quarter. That was it perfect? No. They have a problem, look everyone, they have a problem with aluminum. They have a problem, David. They have a tariff problem.

“When I go to a bar in San Miguel, we would serve Coca-Cola, we’d bang them for eight bucks. I mean people really wanted that stuff. Uh, but it tastes very sweet. And it’s natural. And they’ve always been able to supply here. So it’s not going to be a big problem for Quincey.

“This is another thing that James is really, really good at. Was it a blowout quarter that I’m used to? No. There were some regions that were weaker. And that was, that was hard.

“James Quincy did not pull a rabbit out of the hat. He’s got tariff problems and he didn’t have growth in certain regions and I don’t think he was consumed by sugarcane but it certainly, hit him.”
