As of Q1'26 (2025-12-28), Starbucks (SBUX) reported a revenue surprise of 2.7% and a year-over-year revenue growth of 5.5%. This marks a positive shift compared to recent quarters, indicating both a beat on revenue expectations and a return to solid growth. From Q2'23 to Q1'26, the chart shows considerable volatility in both revenue surprise and revenue growth. After strong positive surprises and double-digit growth in 2023, SBUX experienced negative revenue surprises and even negative YoY growth through much of 2024, reflecting a challenging period. However, beginning in Q2'25, both metrics improved steadily, with revenue surprises turning positive and YoY growth recovering to over 5% by Q1'26, suggesting a robust rebound in performance.
