Big names reporting results this week include international drinks giant Diageo and US technology corporation Microsoft.
Half-year figures are due on Thursday from Diageo, which produces more than 100 individual Scottish whisky brands, including the famous Johnnie Walker.
The company has a workforce of around 3,000 in distilleries and bottling plants north of the border.
Derren Nathan, head of equity research at Hargreaves Lansdown, said Diageo has a portfolio of well-known drinks brands as well as emerging no-alcohol and low-alcohol products.
He added: "Last year's performance benefited from double-digit growth in both price/mix and volumes.
"Drivers included strong demand from drinkers returning to pubs and restaurants, and a particularly-good result from Diageo's higher-end brands.
Revenue growth
"Overall revenue growth is set to have slowed somewhat. But, last we heard, Diageo had enough confidence in its brand power to reiterate its medium-term guidance of organic net sales growth in the range of 5% to 7%, and organic operating profits growth between 6% to 9%, out until 2025.
"The half-year results will reveal whether Diageo remains on track to meet these targets in the face of a challenging economic and geopolitical environment."
Microsoft was in the news for the wrong reasons last week, when it announced a big reduction in its workforce.
The company is cutting 10,000 jobs - up to 5% of its global staff.
Microsoft chief executive Satya Nadella said that, while customer spending had grown during Covid, more people were now choosing to "exercise caution".
But he said the firm would continue to hire in key areas.
Q2 results
Microsoft is unveiling its second-quarter results tomorrow.
Matt Britzman, an equity analyst at Hargreaves Lansdown, said: "Back in October, markets were disappointed by a lacklustre first quarter that saw profits fall due to a combination of higher costs and softer demand.
"We're expecting to see second-quarter revenue of $52.35billion-$53.35billion (£42.26billion-£43.06billion) - a miss could add pressure considering this guidance was already some way below expectations when it was issued in October.
"We'll also be on the lookout for any information about the potential acquisition of a stake in OpenAI, for around $10billion (£8.07billion).
"OpenAI grabbed headlines with the launch of ChatGPT - an AI system that can answer questions in a human-like interaction.
"The implications of the underlying technology could be far reaching and this deal, along with the implied valuation of OpenAI, mark a potential turning point for broader adoption of artificial intelligence.
