PURCHASE, N.Y. - October 1, 2020 - PepsiCo, Inc. (NASDAQ: PEP) today reported results for the third quarter 2020.
“Despite the ongoing volatility and complexity in our operating environment, I believe our third quarter performance reinforces the diversification of our portfolio, the resilience and agility of our teams across every continent and demonstrates our ability to support our customers and communities during their time of need while also delivering good results for our shareholders,” said Chairman and CEO Ramon Laguarta.
“Our reported revenue increased 5.3 percent, while our reported earnings per share increased 10 percent. Organic revenue increased 4.2 percent and core constant currency earnings per share increased 9 percent. These results reflect the continued strength of our global snacks and food business and a significant improvement in our global beverage business.
As the environment continues to evolve, we remain committed to executing on our strategy to become Faster, Stronger and Better and win in the marketplace. Given our year-to-date business performance and based on what we can reasonably predict at this time, we are

providing an update to our full-year 2020 guidance and now expect to deliver approximately 4 percent organic revenue growth and approximately $5.50 in core earnings per share.”

Guidance and Outlook
The Company provides guidance on a non-GAAP basis as we cannot predict certain elements which are included in reported GAAP results, including commodity mark-to-market net impacts.
Based on our year-to-date results and what we can reasonably forecast for the balance of this year, we are providing an update to our full-year financial outlook today. The Company now expects:
Full-year organic revenue growth to be approximately 4 percent;
Full-year core earnings per share of $5.50 compared to 2019 core earnings per share of $5.53; and
Approximately $10 billion in cash from operating activities and free cash flow of approximately $6 billion, which assumes net capital spending of approximately $4 billion.

In addition, the Company continues to expect:
A core effective tax rate of approximately 21 percent; and
Total cash returns to shareholders of approximately $7.5 billion, comprised of dividends of approximately $5.5 billion and share repurchases of approximately $2 billion.

Based on current market consensus rates, the Company now expects foreign exchange translation headwinds to negatively impact net revenue and core earnings per share performance by (2) percentage points and this expectation is reflected in its core EPS guidance.

Earnings Discussion and Conference Call
At approximately 6:30 a.m. (Eastern time) on October 1, 2020, the Company will post a pre-recorded management discussion of its third quarter 2020 results and business update, including its outlook for 2020, at www.pepsico.com/investors. At 8:15 a.m. (Eastern time) on October 1, 2020, the Company will host a live question and answer session with investors and financial analysts. Further details will be accessible on the Company’s website at www.pepsico.com/investors.

Non-GAAP Measures
In discussing financial results and guidance, the Company refers to the following measures which are not in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP): core results, core constant currency results, free cash flow and organic revenue growth. We use these non-GAAP financial measures internally to make operating and strategic decisions, including the preparation of our annual operating plan, evaluation of our overall business performance and as a factor in determining compensation for certain employees. We believe presenting non-GAAP financial measures provides additional information to facilitate comparison of our historical operating results and trends in our underlying operating results, and provides additional transparency on how we evaluate our business. We also believe presenting these measures allows investors to view our performance using the same measures that we use in evaluating our financial and business performance and trends.
We consider quantitative and qualitative factors in assessing whether to adjust for the impact of items that may be significant or that could affect an understanding of our ongoing financial and business performance or trends. Examples of items for which we may make adjustments include: amounts related to mark-to-market gains or losses (non-cash); charges related to restructuring plans; amounts associated with mergers, acquisitions, divestitures and other structural changes; pension and retiree medical related items; charges or adjustments related to the enactment of new laws, rules or regulations, such as significant tax law changes; amounts related to the resolution of tax positions; tax benefits related to reorganizations of our operations; debt redemptions, cash tender or exchange offers; asset impairments (non-cash); and remeasurements of net monetary assets. See below for a description of adjustments to our U.S. GAAP financial measures included herein. 
Non-GAAP information should be considered as supplemental in nature and is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the related financial information prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In addition, our non-GAAP financial measures may not be the same as or comparable to similar non-GAAP measures presented by other companies.
Glossary
We use the following definitions when referring to our non-GAAP financial measures, which may not be the same as or comparable to similar measures presented by other companies:
Acquisitions and divestitures: All mergers and acquisitions activity, including the impact of acquisitions, divestitures and changes in ownership or control in consolidated subsidiaries and nonconsolidated equity investees.
Beverage volume: Volume shipped to retailers and independent distributors from both PepsiCo and our independent bottlers.
Bottler case sales (BCS): Measure of physical beverage volume shipped to retailers and independent distributors from both PepsiCo and our independent bottlers.
Concentrate shipments and equivalents (CSE): Measure of our physical beverage volume shipments to independent bottlers, retailers and independent distributors.
 
Constant currency: Financial results assuming constant foreign currency exchange rates used for translation based on the rates in effect for the comparable prior-year period. In order to compute our constant currency results, we multiply or divide, as appropriate, our current-year U.S. dollar results by the current-year average foreign exchange rates and then multiply or divide, as appropriate, those amounts by the prior-year average foreign exchange rates.
Core: Core results are non-GAAP financial measures which exclude certain items from our historical results. For further information regarding these excluded items for the 12 and 36 weeks ended September 5, 2020 and September 7, 2019, refer to “Items Affecting Comparability” in “Item 2 – Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Q3 2020 Form 10-Q. For further information regarding these excluded items for the year ended December 28, 2019, refer to “Items Affecting Comparability” in “Item 7 – Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 28, 2019. For the periods presented, core results exclude the following items:
Mark-to-market net impact
Mark-to-market net gains and losses on commodity derivatives in corporate unallocated expenses. These gains and losses are subsequently reflected in division results when the divisions recognize the cost of the underlying commodity in operating profit.
Restructuring and impairment charges
Expenses related to the multi-year productivity plans publicly announced in 2019 and 2014.
A - 5


Inventory fair value adjustments and merger and integration charges
In the 36 weeks ended September 5, 2020, charges related to our acquisitions of BFY Brands, Inc. (BFY Brands), Rockstar Energy Beverages (Rockstar), Pioneer Food Group Ltd. (Pioneer Foods) and Hangzhou Haomusi Food Co., Ltd. (Be & Cheery).
In the 36 weeks ended September 7, 2019, and in the year ended December 28, 2019 charges primarily related to our acquisition of SodaStream International Ltd.
Pension-related settlement charges
In the year ended December 28, 2019, settlement charges related to the purchase of a group annuity contract and settlement charges related to one-time lump sum payments to certain former employees who had vested benefits.
Net tax related to the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act
During the fourth quarter of 2017, the TCJ Act was enacted in the United States. In periods subsequent to the enactment of the TCJ Act, we recognized certain tax benefits and/or expenses associated therewith.
Effective net pricing: Reflects the year-over-year impact of discrete pricing actions, sales incentive activities and mix resulting from selling varying products in different package sizes and in different countries.
Free cash flow: Net cash provided by operating activities less capital spending, plus sales of property, plant and equipment. Since net capital spending is essential to our product innovation initiatives and maintaining our operational capabilities, we believe that it is a recurring and necessary use of cash. As such, we believe investors should also consider net capital spending when evaluating our cash from operating activities. Free cash flow is used by us primarily for acquisitions and financing activities, including debt repayments, dividends and share repurchases. Free cash flow is not a measure of cash available for discretionary expenditures since we have certain non-discretionary obligations such as debt service that are not deducted from the measure.
Net capital spending: Capital spending less cash proceeds from sales of property, plant and equipment.
Organic revenue growth: A measure that adjusts for impacts of acquisitions, divestitures and other structural changes, foreign exchange translation and, when applicable, the impact of the 53rd reporting week.
2020 guidance
Our 2020 organic revenue growth guidance excludes the impact of acquisitions, divestitures and other structural changes and foreign exchange translation. Our 2020 core effective tax rate guidance and 2020 core EPS guidance exclude the mark-to-market net impact included in corporate unallocated expenses and restructuring and impairment charges. We are unable to reconcile our full year projected 2020 organic revenue growth to our full year projected 2020 reported net revenue growth because we are unable to predict the occurrence or impact of any acquisitions, divestitures or other structural changes. We are also not able to reconcile our full year projected 2020 core effective tax rate to our full year projected 2020 reported effective tax rate and our full year projected 2020 core EPS to our full year projected 2020 reported EPS because we are unable to predict the mark-to-market net impact on commodity derivatives due to the unpredictability of future changes in commodity prices. Therefore, we are unable to provide a reconciliation of these measures.

(a)Adjustments primarily reflect Pioneer Foods (AMESA), as well as Be & Cheery (APAC), Rockstar (PBNA) and BFY Brands (FLNA). The contribution from the acquisition of Rockstar reflects the incremental consolidated net revenue reported for Rockstar in excess of the net revenue we reported under our previous distribution arrangement.
(b)Organic revenue growth is a financial measure that is not in accordance with GAAP.
(c)Excludes the impact of acquisitions and divestitures. In certain instances, volume growth varies from the amounts disclosed in the Summary Third-Quarter 2020 Performance and Summary Year-to-Date 2020 Performance tables on pages 3 and 4, respectively, due to nonconsolidated joint venture volume, and, for our beverage businesses, temporary timing differences between BCS and CSE, as well as the mix of beverage volume sold by our company-owned and franchise-owned bottlers. Our net revenue excludes nonconsolidated joint venture volume, and, for our franchise-owned beverage businesses, is based on CSE.
