Coca-Cola Co., the world’s largest soft-drink maker, said fourth-quarter profit rose 13 percent as sales of non-carbonated drinks in North America such as Powerade helped counter lower demand in Europe.

Net income climbed to $1.87 billion, or 41 cents a share, Atlanta-based Coca-Cola said in a statement. Excluding restructuring costs and other items, profit was 45 cents a share, compared with the 44-cent average of 13 analysts’ estimates compiled by Bloomberg.
