Net income attributable to the company's shareholders fell to US$550 million, or 13 cents per share, in the fourth quarter ended Dec 31, from US$1.24 billion, or 28 cents per share, a year earlier.
The fourth quarter included a US$919 million charge related to the refranchising of some of the company's bottling operations in North America.
Net operating revenue fell to US$9.41 billion from US$10 billion.
