- Coca-Cola Europacific Partners is still digesting its acquisition of Amatil, which means the FY 2021 results don't include a full-year contribution from the acquisition.
- The net debt has increased to almost 12B EUR as CCEP acquired Amatil in a debt-funded all-cash bid.
- This is not a deterrent as the debt is cheap, and the free cash flows are accelerating.
- I am considering going long again, but I'm in no rush.
- The anticipated dividend yield for this year is approximately 3.3% using a 50% payout ratio.
