Coca-Cola profit falls 55 percent


    (Reuters) - Coca-Cola Co reported a 55 percent plunge in quarterly profit as a stronger dollar hurt revenue from international markets.

    The world's largest beverage maker said net income attributable to shareholders fell to $770 million, or 17 cents per share, in the fourth quarter ended Dec. 31 from $1.71 billion, or 38 cents per share, a year earlier.

    Net operating revenue fell 2 percent to $10.87 billion.
