Starbucks had a good quarter in Q2 despite widespread shutdowns in its second-largest market, China. The company reported $8.15 billion in net revenue for a gain of 8.7% over last year which beat the consensus by $0.02 billion. The beat is slim but compounded by strength in the largest market, the U.S., and new store openings. On a comp basis, the global comp is up 3% on a 6% increase in ticket average offset by a 3% decline in tickets. In North America, sales rose 9% on an 8% increase in check average and 1% increase in volume while International sales fell 18% on a 44% decline in China. Ex-China, International sales rose by double-digits, driven by new stores and deeper penetration of emerging coffee markets.
