    Vita Coco Company (COCO) has drawn fresh attention after its shares rose 1.77% on a down market day, ahead of an October 22 earnings report with EPS projected to increase 27.50% year over year.

    Those short term moves sit on top of a choppier backdrop, with a 30 day share price return of 5.14% but a 90 day share price decline of 20.55% as investors reassess growth expectations against recent gains. Even with that pullback, Vita Coco Company’s total shareholder return of 43.29% over one year and 139.45% over three years indicates that momentum has been building over time rather than fading.
