public company

Coca-Cola

Industry Food

A public beverage company selling soft drinks and packaged beverages worldwide, with global brand power, plastic footprint, and public-health concerns. Coca-Cola remains weak because of ecological harm, toxic or materially harmful products, and youth capture, even where the product or service has practical value.

Why this matters: Product reach and packaging footprint make harm central to the assessment, not peripheral philanthropy.

[2] Coca-Cola publishes investor-relations materials for a shareholder-governed beverage company built around global brands, concentrate, bottling, and marketing systems. [3]
Extraction ? Surplus allocation, wage share, CEO pay ratio, margins, and structured extraction judgment.	4 / 10	The Coca-Cola Company publishes investor-relations materials for a shareholder-governed public company. The Coca-Cola Company publishes investor-relations materials for a shareholder-governed public company. That places Coca-Cola in the middle of Extraction: the institution creates real value but still leaves room for rent extraction, unequal bargaining, or surplus capture. The value stays below the top tier because the linked record does not show full democratic control, non-extractive lock-in, or complete stakeholder protection on this axis. Calibration notes Comparative anchor: Column-spectrum position: 62 scored entries below, 32 tied, 132 above on Extraction. Linked evidence context The Coca-Cola Company publishes investor-relations materials for a shareholder-governed public company.

[2] Coca-Cola's brand and beverage system captures value through globally marketed drinks, including sugar-sweetened products whose health costs are outside the purchase price. [4]
Labor Sovereignty ? Worker power: coercive conditions at 0, co-determination or ownership at 7. Employee dissatisfaction matters only when source-backed evidence shows concrete limits on worker agency, such as coercive scheduling, retaliation, wage theft, harassment, unsafe conditions, suppression of worker voice, or extreme turnover.	3 / 7	The Coca-Cola Company publishes investor-relations materials for a shareholder-governed public company. The Coca-Cola Company publishes investor-relations materials for a shareholder-governed public company. That places Coca-Cola in the middle of Labor Sovereignty: workers or participants have some protection or agency, but not enough binding power to control the relationship. The value stays below the top tier because the linked record does not show full democratic control, non-extractive lock-in, or complete stakeholder protection on this axis. Calibration notes Comparative anchor: Column-spectrum position: 45 scored entries below, 66 tied, 115 above on Labor Sovereignty.

The Coca-Cola Company publishes investor-relations materials for a shareholder-governed public company. That places Coca-Cola in the middle of Solidarity with the Unemployed: some access, severance, retraining, openness, or mutual-aid value is present, but it is not central or durable. The value stays below the top tier because the linked record does not show full democratic control, non-extractive lock-in, or complete stakeholder protection on this axis. Calibration notes Comparative anchor: Column-spectrum position: 81 scored entries below, 45 tied, 100 above on Solidarity with the Unemployed. Linked evidence context The Coca-Cola Company publishes investor-relations materials for a shareholder-governed public company. [1] context Coca-Cola publishes environmental reporting covering packaging, water, emissions, and agricultural ingredients.

Willingness to absorb costs to preserve values, workers, users, and public obligations.	2 / 7	The Coca-Cola Company publishes investor-relations materials for a shareholder-governed public company. The Coca-Cola Company publishes investor-relations materials for a shareholder-governed public company. That keeps Coca-Cola low on Loss-Bearing Fidelity: losses, hazards, or adjustment costs are routinely pushed onto workers, customers, suppliers, communities, or the public. The value is above zero only where the linked record still shows some real function, constraint, or public value on this axis. Calibration notes Comparative anchor: Column-spectrum position: 33 scored entries below, 14 tied, 179 above on Loss-Bearing Fidelity. Linked evidence context The Coca-Cola Company publishes investor-relations materials for a shareholder-governed public company.

That places Coca-Cola in the middle of Market Conduct: the product has real value but still uses meaningful lock-in, gatekeeping, market power, or dependency. The value stays below the top tier because the linked record does not show full democratic control, non-extractive lock-in, or complete stakeholder protection on this axis. Calibration notes Comparative anchor: Column-spectrum position: 54 scored entries below, 51 tied, 121 above on Market Conduct. Linked evidence context The Coca-Cola Company publishes investor-relations materials for a shareholder-governed public company. [1] context Coca-Cola publishes environmental reporting covering packaging, water, emissions, and agricultural ingredients. [2] Coca-Cola's global brands and bottling system create powerful market dependence through advertising, distribution, and brand saturation rather than simple beverage utility. [8]
Product Integrity ? Preservation of quality rather than degradation for monetization.	3 / 5	Coca-Cola sells beverages whose product integrity must be evaluated alongside sugar, packaging, and water impacts rather than brand recognition or philanthropic claims. Coca-Cola sells beverages whose product integrity must be evaluated alongside sugar, packaging, and water impacts rather than brand recognition or philanthropic claims. That places Coca-Cola in the middle of Product Integrity: the product has real use value but is compromised by incentives, monetization, lock-in, quality degradation, or risk. The value stays below the top tier because the linked record does not show full democratic control, non-extractive lock-in, or complete stakeholder protection on this axis. Calibration notes Comparative anchor: Column-spectrum position: 37 scored entries below, 23 tied, 166 above on Product Integrity.

Penalties

Penalty	Applied	Why this penalty
Ecological Harm ? Footprint, trajectory, irreversibility, culpability, and scale, including whether ecological harm is central to the model and continued after credible notice. Range: -30 to 0.	-6	Coca-Cola publishes environmental reporting covering packaging, water, emissions, and agricultural ingredients. Coca-Cola publishes environmental reporting covering packaging, water, emissions, and agricultural ingredients. That warrants a substantial Ecological Harm penalty because the institution causes or defends ecological damage that is more than incidental to the model. The value is substantial but not at the floor because the linked record shows serious conduct without the strongest aggravating factors on this axis. Calibration notes Comparative anchor: Column-spectrum position: 18 scored entries below, 2 tied, 206 above on Ecological Harm. Linked evidence Coca-Cola publishes environmental reporting covering packaging, water, emissions, and agricultural ingredients. [2]
Policy Capture ? Private-interest attempts to bend law, regulation, subsidies, taxes, enforcement, trade, labor, safety, competition, environmental, healthcare, housing, surveillance, civil-liberties, or consumer policy against workers, customers, citizens, affected communities, or ecological life. Public-interest advocacy is not penalized merely because it is lobbying. Range: -15 to 0.	-5	OpenLobby records COCA-COLA lobbying on agriculture, healthcare, environment, BEV, tax with about $880K in spending across 27 filings; the reviewed filings document private institutional lobbying over public rules rather than a public-interest advocacy role. OpenLobby records COCA-COLA lobbying on agriculture, healthcare, environment, BEV, tax with about $880K in spending across 27 filings; the reviewed filings document private institutional lobbying over public rules rather than a public-interest advocacy role. That warrants a limited Policy Capture penalty because private institutional pressure is being applied to public rules while affected people cannot democratically govern that agenda. The value is limited because the linked record shows a real problem but not one that dominates the profile on this axis. Linked evidence OpenLobby records COCA-COLA lobbying on agriculture, healthcare, environment, BEV, tax with about $880K in spending across 27 filings; the reviewed filings document private institutional lobbying over public rules rather than a public-interest advocacy role. [14]
Toxic Products ? Current sale of products whose ordinary use, exposure, ingredients, residues, packaging, or formulation creates toxic, addictive, or consumer-safety risk. Food products receive at least light scrutiny for artificial colors, artificial flavors, petro-derived additives, pesticide residues, contaminants, endocrine-disrupting packaging, and ultra-processed formulation. Ordinary adult nightlife or alcohol service is not penalized by itself without evidence of predatory marketing, youth targeting, addiction-extractive design, or unusual product-safety misconduct. Range: -5 to 0.	-3	Coca-Cola currently sells sugar-sweetened beverages as a core global product category; the product category creates ordinary toxic, addictive, or consumer-safety exposure under the directory's toxic-products screen. Coca-Cola currently sells sugar-sweetened beverages as a core global product category; the product category creates ordinary toxic, addictive, or consumer-safety exposure under the directory's toxic-products screen. That warrants a substantial Toxic Products penalty because ordinary use, exposure, ingredients, residues, packaging, or formulation creates material toxic, addictive, or consumer-safety risk. The value is substantial but not at the floor because the linked record shows serious conduct without the strongest aggravating factors on this axis. Calibration notes Comparative anchor: Column-spectrum position: 9 scored entries below, 4 tied, 213 above on Toxic Products. Linked evidence Coca-Cola currently sells sugar-sweetened beverages as a core global product category; the product category creates ordinary toxic, addictive, or consumer-safety exposure under the directory's toxic-products screen. [11]
Youth Capture ? Manipulative youth-directed marketing, youth-data or attention monetization, collectible/add-on traps, parasocial or identity capture, surprise mechanics, or treating young people as lower-disclosure consumers. Making useful toys or welcoming children is not itself penalized. Range: -5 to 0.	-2	UConn Rudd Center reporting on sugary drink advertising found that beverage companies continued directing large advertising exposure toward children and teens, with Coca-Cola brands… UConn Rudd Center reporting on sugary drink advertising found that beverage companies continued directing large advertising exposure toward children and teens, with Coca-Cola brands responsible for a substantial share of sugary-drink ad spending and youth TV ad exposure. That warrants a substantial Youth Capture penalty because young people are treated as manipulable consumers, data sources, attention targets, or culture markets. The value is substantial but not at the floor because the linked record shows serious conduct without the strongest aggravating factors on this axis. Calibration notes Comparative anchor: Column-spectrum position: 10 scored entries below, 2 tied, 214 above on Youth Capture. Linked evidence UConn Rudd Center reporting on sugary drink advertising found that beverage companies continued directing large advertising exposure toward children and teens, with Coca-Cola brands responsible for a substantial share of sugary-drink ad spending and youth TV ad exposure. [12]
Shrinkflation ? Reducing product quantity, count, usable volume, or package contents without a proportionate price reduction, especially when the change is not clearly announced at the shelf, package front, or purchase interface. Openly labeled size changes are less severe than quiet downsizing. Range: -5 to 0.	-3	Coca-Cola belongs in a material shrinkflation tier because lawmakers specifically requested per-ounce pricing and package-size information for its beverages. Calibration notes Comparative anchor: Shrinkflation axis rollout; full column calibration should be revisited as product-level package-size evidence is added. Linked evidence Coca-Cola was named in Warren-Dean oversight letters alleging a pattern of shrinkflation and price gouging involving beverage package sizes and per-ounce pricing. [15]
Ideological Disavowal ? Concealed ideology presented as neutrality, expertise, professional necessity, public-service administration, market inevitability, or non-ideological common sense while exercising power. Range: -3 to 0.	-1	Coca-Cola's public framing is assessed as ideological-disavowal evidence because Coca-Cola shows bounded neutrality theater: some contested choices are softened through expertise,… Coca-Cola's public framing is assessed as ideological-disavowal evidence because Coca-Cola shows bounded neutrality theater: some contested choices are softened through expertise, public-interest, professional, market, safety, or institutional language, but the record does not show dominant concealment of standpoint. That warrants a limited Ideological Disavowal penalty because the institution presents situated, contested choices as neutrality, expertise, inevitability, safety, or common sense. The value is limited because the linked record shows a real problem but not one that dominates the profile on this axis. Calibration notes Comparative anchor: Ideological Disavowal 0 to -3 recalibration: 0 for explicit standpoint or no penalty-level neutrality theater; -1 for bounded softening of contested choices; -2 for strong neutrality theater by a powerful institution; -3 for major gatekeeping or coercive power presented as neutral, necessary, objective, or non-ideological. Uncertainty This recalibration uses public self-presentation and profile evidence; later review should add direct language-analysis evidence for high-impact institutions. Linked evidence Coca-Cola's public framing is assessed as ideological-disavowal evidence because Coca-Cola shows bounded neutrality theater: some contested choices are softened through expertise, public-interest, professional, market, safety, or institutional language, but the record does not show dominant concealment of standpoint.
