Financial Information
Adolph Coors, a holding Co. for Coors Brewing Co., produces, markets and sells high-quality malt-based beverages. For the 26 weeks ended 6/02, net sales rose 43% to $1.76 billion. Net income rose 39% to $94.8 million. Results largely reflect the inclusion of Coors Brewers Limited, the business formed through Adolph Coors Company's acquisition of the Carling business of Bass Brewers from Interbrew S.A., partially offset by increased interest expense.
