Starbucks reported lower than expected revenue in its fiscal fourth quarter as international traffic softened.
The Seattle coffee giant said global same-store sales rose 7.2% for the July-September period, which was higher than the 6% increase Wall Street was expecting, according to analysts polled by FactSet.
That was largely due to strong demand in the U.S., where same-store sales jumped 7.7%. International same-store sales rose less than 1%, and Starbucks noted a 2.8% decline in international store traffic.
