Piper Sandler Sticks with KO Price Target at $95 Amid Strong Execution
Piper Sandler has reaffirmed its positive outlook on Coca-Cola (KO) stock, reiterating an Overweight rating and a price target of $95.00.
The analyst firm maintains that KO's execution capabilities are best-in-class in the beverage sector, with a gross profit margin of 61.89% and a perfect Piotroski Score of 9.
Coca-Cola's consumer-centric approach has driven outperformance through targeted marketing campaigns and innovation based on consumer insights, according to Piper Sandler.
The company faces a modest headwind in the third quarter of 2026 from supply issues affecting its Topo Chico mineral water brand, but volume momentum across the broader business is tracking as expected.
