Description: PEP PepsiCo December 01, 2025

PepsiCo, Inc. (NASDAQ:PEP) manufactures, markets, distributes, and sells a broad portfolio of beverages and convenient foods through seven geographic segments, ranging from Frito-Lay North America to Asia-Pacific and China. Its brands span salty snacks (Lay’s, Doritos, Cheetos), cereals and grains (Quaker, Rice-A-Roni), carbonated and non-carbonated drinks (Pepsi, Mountain Dew, Gatorade, Aquafina, Bubly), and emerging categories such as ready-to-drink teas, coffees, and even alcoholic beverages under the Hard MTN Dew label. Distribution is handled via a mix of direct-store-delivery, warehouse, and independent bottler networks, complemented by growing e-commerce channels.

Key recent metrics: 2023 net revenue reached $86 billion, with a 5-year compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of ~4 % in comparable-currency sales; the company generated a free cash flow conversion of ~85 % of net income, supporting a 2.8 % dividend yield and a 65-year dividend-growth streak. Primary economic drivers include commodity price volatility (corn, wheat, aluminum) that pressures snack margins, and shifting consumer preferences toward “better-for-you” products, prompting PepsiCo to accelerate its portfolio-reformulation and launch of low-sugar, plant-based, and functional beverages. Emerging-market exposure-particularly in Latin America and South-Asia-offers upside as per-capita disposable income rises, while inflation-sensitive pricing remains a near-term risk.
