Organic Revenue Growth

A company's revenue growth stripped of the effects that are not the underlying business winning -- currency swings, acquisitions and divestitures, and (for beverage companies) the pass-through of some structural items. It isolates the demand a company generated on its own, so it is the number management is really judged on. Companies bridge it into components -- how much came from selling more (volume) versus charging more (price/mix) -- and that split matters: growth built on volume is healthier and more durable than growth built only on price increases, which can eventually dent volume. Because the adjustments are company-defined, compare organic growth within a company over time more confidently than across companies.
