Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
Note 1 - Basis of Presentation and Our Divisions
Basis of Presentation
When used in this report, the terms “we,” “us,” “our,” “PepsiCo” and the “Company” mean PepsiCo, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries, collectively.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) for interim financial information and with the rules and regulations for reporting the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (Form 10-Q). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 28, 2019 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date, but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. These financial statements have been prepared on a basis that is substantially consistent with the accounting principles applied in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 28, 2019 (2019 Form 10-K), as modified to reflect the adoption of the recently issued accounting pronouncement disclosed in Note 2 in this Form 10-Q. This report should be read in conjunction with our 2019 Form 10-K. In our opinion, these financial statements include all normal and recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation. The results for the 12 and 36 weeks ended September 5, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for any future period or the full year.
Preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in our condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. The business and economic uncertainty resulting from the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic has made such estimates and assumptions more difficult to calculate. Accordingly, actual results and outcomes could differ from those estimates.
While our financial results in the United States and Canada (North America) are reported on a 12-week basis, substantially all of our international operations report on a monthly calendar basis for which the months of June, July and August are reflected in our results for the 12 weeks ended September 5, 2020, and the months of January through August are reflected in our results for the 36 weeks ended September 5, 2020.
Our significant interim accounting policies include the recognition of a pro rata share of certain estimated annual sales incentives and certain advertising and marketing costs in proportion to revenue or volume, as applicable, and the recognition of income taxes using an estimated annual effective tax rate. Raw materials, direct labor and plant overhead, as well as purchasing and receiving costs, costs directly related to production planning, inspection costs and raw materials handling facilities, are included in cost of sales. The costs of moving, storing and delivering finished product, including merchandising activities, are included in selling, general and administrative expenses.
Unless otherwise noted, tabular dollars are in millions, except per share amounts. All per share amounts reflect common per share amounts, assume dilution unless otherwise noted, and are based on unrounded amounts. Certain reclassifications were made to the prior year’s financial statements to conform to the current year presentation.

Our Divisions
As previously disclosed in our 2019 Form 10-K, during the fourth quarter of 2019, we realigned certain of our reportable segments to be consistent with a strategic realignment of our organizational structure and how our Chief Executive Officer assesses the performance of, and allocates resources to, our reportable segments. Our historical segment reporting presented in this report has been retrospectively revised to reflect the new organizational structure. These changes did not impact our consolidated financial results. See Note 1 to our consolidated financial statements in our 2019 Form 10-K for further information.
We are organized into seven reportable segments (also referred to as divisions), as follows:
1)Frito-Lay North America (FLNA), which includes our branded food and snack businesses in the United States and Canada;
2)Quaker Foods North America (QFNA), which includes our cereal, rice, pasta and other branded food businesses in the United States and Canada;
3)PepsiCo Beverages North America (PBNA), which includes our beverage businesses in the United States and Canada;
4)Latin America (LatAm), which includes all of our beverage, food and snack businesses in Latin America;
5)Europe, which includes all of our beverage, food and snack businesses in Europe;
6)Africa, Middle East and South Asia (AMESA), which includes all of our beverage, food and snack businesses in Africa, the Middle East and South Asia; and
7)Asia Pacific, Australia and New Zealand and China region (APAC), which includes all of our beverage, food and snack businesses in Asia Pacific, Australia and New Zealand, and China region.
Net revenue of each division is as follows:

Total $ 18,091  $ 17,188  $ 47,917  $ 46,521 
(a)The increase in net revenue primarily reflects our acquisition of Pioneer Food Group Ltd. (Pioneer Foods). See Note 12 for further information.

Our primary performance obligation is the distribution and sales of beverage, food and snack products to our customers. The following tables reflect the approximate percentage of net revenue generated between our beverage business and our food and snack business for each of our international divisions, as well as our consolidated net revenue:

(a)Beverage revenue from company-owned bottlers, which primarily includes our consolidated bottling operations in our PBNA and Europe segments, is approximately 40% of our consolidated net revenue. Generally, our finished goods beverage operations produce higher net revenue, but lower operating margins as compared to concentrate sold to authorized bottling partners for the manufacture of finished goods beverages.
(b)The increase in the approximate percentage of net revenue generated by the food/snack business primarily reflects our acquisition of Pioneer Foods. See Note 12 for further information.

Note 2 - Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
Adopted
In 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued guidance that changes the impairment model used to measure credit losses for most financial assets. For our trade receivables, certain other receivables and certain other financial instruments, we are required to use a new forward-looking expected credit loss model that replaced the existing incurred credit loss model. The new model generally results in earlier recognition of allowances for credit losses. We adopted this guidance in the first quarter of 2020 and the adoption did not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements or disclosures. On initial recognition, we recorded an after-tax cumulative effect decrease to retained earnings of $34 million ($44 million pre-tax) as of the beginning of 2020.
12


Not Yet Adopted
In 2019, the FASB issued guidance to simplify the accounting for income taxes. The guidance primarily addresses how to (1) recognize a deferred tax liability after we transition to or from the equity method of accounting, (2) evaluate if a step-up in the tax basis of goodwill is related to a business combination or is a separate transaction, (3) recognize all of the effects of a change in tax law in the period of enactment, including adjusting the estimated annual tax rate, and (4) include the amount of tax based on income in the income tax provision and any incremental amount as a tax not based on income for hybrid tax regimes. The guidance is effective in the first quarter of 2021 with early adoption permitted. We will adopt the guidance when it becomes effective in the first quarter of 2021. The guidance is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements or related disclosures.
Note 3 - Restructuring and Impairment Charges
2019 Multi-Year Productivity Plan
We publicly announced a multi-year productivity plan on February 15, 2019 (2019 Productivity Plan) that will leverage new technology and business models to further simplify, harmonize and automate processes; re-engineer our go-to-market and information systems, including deploying the right automation for each market; and simplify our organization and optimize our manufacturing and supply chain footprint. In connection with this plan, we expect to incur pre-tax charges of approximately $2.5 billion and cash expenditures of approximately $1.6 billion. These pre-tax charges are expected to consist of approximately 70% of severance and other employee-related costs, 15% for asset impairments (all non-cash) resulting from plant closures and related actions, and 15% for other costs associated with the implementation of our initiatives. We expect to complete this plan by 2023.
The total expected plan pre-tax charges are expected to be incurred by division approximately as follows:
FLNA QFNA PBNA LatAm Europe AMESA APAC Corporate
Expected pre-tax charges 11  % 2  % 30  % 10  % 25  % 8  % 5  % 9  %
A summary of our 2019 Productivity Plan charges is as follows:

Note 5 - Income Taxes
Tax Cuts and Jobs Act
During the fourth quarter of 2017, the TCJ Act was enacted in the United States. The related provisional measurement period allowed by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) ended in the fourth quarter of 2018. While our accounting for the recorded impact of the TCJ Act was deemed to be complete, additional guidance issued by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) impacted our recorded amounts after December 29, 2018.
There were no tax amounts recognized in the 36 weeks ended September 5, 2020 related to the TCJ Act. In the 36 weeks ended September 7, 2019, we recognized tax benefits of $29 million ($0.02 per share) related to the TCJ Act.
For further information and discussion of the impact of the TCJ Act, refer to Note 5 to our consolidated financial statements in our 2019 Form 10-K.
Other Tax Matters
On May 19, 2019, a public referendum held in Switzerland passed the Federal Act on Tax Reform and AHV Financing (TRAF), effective January 1, 2020. In the 12 and 36 weeks ended September 5, 2020, we recorded net tax benefits of $77 million primarily related to the adoption of the TRAF in the Swiss Canton of Bern in the third quarter of 2020. In the 12 and 36 weeks ended September 7, 2019, we recorded net tax benefits of $45 million and $33 million, respectively, related to the TRAF. While the accounting for the impacts of the TRAF are deemed to be complete, further adjustments to our financial statements and related disclosures could be made in future quarters, including in connection with final tax return filings.
For further information and discussion of the TRAF, refer to Note 5 to our consolidated financial statements in our 2019 Form 10-K.
The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act) was enacted on March 27, 2020 in the United States. The CARES Act and related notices include several significant provisions, including delaying certain payroll tax payments, mandatory transition tax payments under the TCJ Act and estimated income tax payments that we are deferring to future periods. Estimated federal income tax payments and mandatory transition tax payments under the TCJ Act were made in the third quarter of 2020 and are no longer deferred. Additionally, we expect to pay the previously deferred payroll taxes in the fourth quarter of 2020. We do not currently expect the CARES Act to have a material impact on our financial results, including on our annual estimated effective tax rate or on our liquidity. We will continue to monitor and assess the impact the CARES Act and similar legislation in other countries may have on our business and financial results.

We continue to monitor the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and related global economic conditions and uncertainty on the net unfunded status of our pension and retiree medical plans. We also regularly evaluate opportunities to reduce risk and volatility associated with our pension and retiree medical plans. In addition, lump sum payments may result in settlement charges that would be reflected as an item affecting comparability in future periods. During the 36 weeks ended September 5, 2020, we made discretionary contributions of $325 million to the PepsiCo Employees Retirement Plan A (Plan A) in the United States and $14 million to our international plans. During the 36 weeks ended September 7, 2019, we made discretionary contributions of $150 million to Plan A in the United States and $17 million to our international plans.

In the 36 weeks ended September 5, 2020, $750 million of senior notes matured and were paid.
As of September 5, 2020, we had $2.1 billion of commercial paper outstanding.

In the second quarter of 2020, we entered into a new 364-day unsecured revolving credit agreement (364-Day Credit Agreement) which expires on May 31, 2021. The 364-Day Credit Agreement enables us and our borrowing subsidiaries to borrow up to $3.75 billion in U.S. dollars and/or euros, subject to customary terms and conditions. We may request that commitments under this agreement be increased up to $4.5 billion in U.S. dollars and/or euros. We may request renewal of this facility for an additional 364-day period or convert any amounts outstanding into a term loan for a period of up to one year, which term loan would mature no later than the anniversary of the then effective termination date. The 364-Day Credit Agreement replaced our $3.75 billion 364-day credit agreement, dated as of June 3, 2019. Funds borrowed under the 364-Day Credit Agreement may be used for general corporate purposes. Subject to certain conditions, we may borrow, prepay and reborrow amounts under this agreement. The 364-Day Credit Agreement is in addition to our existing $3.75 billion unsecured revolving credit agreement which expires on June 3, 2024 (Five-Year Credit Agreement). As of September 5, 2020, there were no outstanding borrowings under either the 364-Day Credit Agreement or the Five-Year Credit Agreement.
On March 12, 2020, one of our international consolidated subsidiaries borrowed 21.7 billion South African rand, or approximately $1.3 billion, from our two unsecured bridge loan facilities (Bridge Loan Facilities) to fund our acquisition of Pioneer Foods. These borrowings were fully repaid in April 2020 and no further borrowings under these Bridge Loan Facilities are permitted.
In the fourth quarter of 2020, we paid $1.1 billion to redeem all $1.1 billion outstanding principal amount of our 2.15% senior notes due October 2020 and terminated associated interest rate swaps with a notional amount of $0.8 billion.
Note 9 - Financial Instruments
We are exposed to market risks arising from adverse changes in:
commodity prices, affecting the cost of our raw materials and energy;
foreign exchange rates and currency restrictions; and
interest rates.
There have been no material changes during the 36 weeks ended September 5, 2020 with respect to our risk management policies or strategies and valuation techniques used in measuring the fair value of the financial assets or liabilities disclosed in Note 9 to our consolidated financial statements in our 2019 Form 10-K.
Certain of our agreements with our counterparties require us to post full collateral on derivative instruments in a net liability position if our credit rating is at A2 (Moody’s Investors Service, Inc.) or A (S&P Global Ratings) and we have been placed on credit watch for possible downgrade or if our credit rating falls below these levels. The fair value of all derivative instruments with credit-risk-related contingent features that were in a net liability position as of September 5, 2020 was $376 million. We have posted no collateral under these contracts and no credit-risk-related contingent features were triggered as of September 5, 2020.

(b)Based on the price of index funds. These investments are classified as short-term investments and are used to manage a portion of market risk arising from our deferred compensation liability.
(c)Time deposits classified as short-term investments approximate fair value due to their short-term maturity.
(d)Based primarily on the price of our common stock.
(e)Based on the fair value of investments corresponding to employees’ investment elections.
(f)In connection with our acquisition of Rockstar, we recorded a liability for tax-related contingent consideration payable over up to 15 years, with an option to accelerate all remaining payments, with estimated maximum payments of approximately $1.1 billion, using current tax rates. The fair value of the liability is estimated using probability-weighted, discounted future cash flows at current tax rates. The significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) used to estimate the fair value include the expected future tax benefits associated with the acquisition, the probability that the option to accelerate all remaining payments will be exercised and discount rates. The expected annual future tax benefits range from approximately $40 million to $100 million, with an average of $70 million. The probability, in any given year, that the option to accelerate will be exercised ranges from 0 to 10 percent, with a weighted-average payment period of approximately 7 years. The discount rates range from less than 1 percent to 5 percent, with a weighted average of 2 percent. The contingent consideration measured at fair value using unobservable inputs as of September 5, 2020 is $874 million, comprised of an $848 million liability recognized at the acquisition date of Rockstar and a fair value increase of $10 million and $26 million in the 12 and 36 weeks ended September 5, 2020, respectively, recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses.
(g)Based on London Interbank Offered Rate forward rates. As of September 5, 2020 and December 28, 2019, the carrying amount of hedged fixed-rate debt was $1.5 billion and $2.2 billion, respectively, and classified on our balance sheet within short-term and long-term debt obligations. As of September 5, 2020 and December 28, 2019, the cumulative amount of fair value hedging adjustments to hedged fixed-rate debt was a $4 million gain and a $5 million loss, respectively. As of September 5, 2020 and December 28, 2019, the cumulative amount of fair value hedging adjustments on discontinued hedges was a $28 million loss and a $49 million loss, respectively, which is being amortized over the remaining life of the related debt obligations.
(h)Based on recently reported market transactions of spot and forward rates.
(i)Based on quoted contract prices on futures exchange markets.
(j)Based on recently reported market transactions of swap arrangements.
(k)Derivative assets and liabilities are presented on a gross basis on our balance sheet. Amounts subject to enforceable master netting arrangements or similar agreements which are not offset on the balance sheet as of September 5, 2020 and December 28, 2019 were not material. Collateral received or posted against our asset or liability positions was not material. Collateral posted of $61 million and $58 million as of September 5, 2020 and December 28, 2019, respectively, is classified as restricted cash.
The carrying amounts of our cash and cash equivalents approximate fair value due to their short-term maturity. The fair value of our debt obligations as of September 5, 2020 and December 28, 2019 was $50 billion and $34 billion, respectively, based upon prices of similar instruments in the marketplace, which are considered Level 2 inputs.

Note 12 - Acquisitions and Divestitures
Acquisition of Pioneer Food Group Ltd.
On March 23, 2020, we acquired all of the outstanding shares of Pioneer Foods, a food and beverage company in South Africa with exports to countries across the globe, for 110.00 South African rand per share in cash. The total consideration transferred was approximately $1.2 billion and was funded by the Bridge Loan Facilities entered into by one of our international consolidated subsidiaries. See Note 8 for further information.
We accounted for the transaction as a business combination. We recognized and measured the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their estimated fair values on the date of acquisition, in our AMESA segment. The assets acquired and liabilities assumed in Pioneer Foods as of the acquisition date, which primarily include goodwill and other intangible assets of $0.8 billion and property, plant and equipment of $0.4 billion, are based on preliminary estimates that are subject to revisions and may result in adjustments to preliminary values as valuations are finalized. We expect to finalize these amounts as soon as possible, but no later than the second quarter of 2021.
In connection with our acquisition of Pioneer Foods, we have made certain commitments to the South Africa Competition Commission, including a commitment to provide the equivalent of 7.7 billion South African rand, or approximately $0.5 billion as of the end of the third quarter of 2020, in value for the benefit of our employees, agricultural development, education, developing Pioneer Foods’ operations and enterprise development programs in South Africa. Included in this commitment is 2.2 billion South
26


African rand, or approximately $0.1 billion, relating to the implementation of an employee ownership plan and an agricultural, entrepreneurship and educational development fund, which is an irrevocable condition of the acquisition and will primarily be settled within the twelve-month period from the acquisition date. This was recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses in the 36 weeks ended September 5, 2020. The remaining commitment of 5.5 billion South African rand, or approximately $0.3 billion, relates to capital expenditures and/or business-related costs which will be incurred and recorded over a five-year period from the acquisition date.
Acquisition of Rockstar Energy Beverages
On April 24, 2020, we acquired Rockstar, an energy drink maker with whom we had a distribution agreement, for an upfront cash payment of approximately $3.85 billion and contingent consideration related to estimated future tax benefits associated with the acquisition of approximately $0.85 billion. See Note 9 for further information about the contingent consideration. The purchase price will also be adjusted for net working capital amounts as of the acquisition date compared to targeted amounts set forth in the acquisition agreement.
We accounted for the transaction as a business combination. We recognized and measured the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their estimated fair values on the date of acquisition, primarily in our PBNA segment. The assets acquired and liabilities assumed in Rockstar as of the acquisition date, which primarily include goodwill and other intangible assets of $4.6 billion, are based on preliminary estimates that are subject to revisions and may result in adjustments to preliminary values as valuations are finalized. We expect to finalize these amounts as soon as possible, but no later than the second quarter of 2021.
In addition to our acquisition of Rockstar, as part of our overall energy strategy, we entered into an agreement with Vital Pharmaceuticals, Inc. in the second quarter of 2020 for us and our bottlers to exclusively distribute Bang Energy drinks in the United States.
Acquisition of Hangzhou Haomusi Food Co., Ltd.
On June 1, 2020, we acquired all of the outstanding shares of Be & Cheery, one of the largest online snacks companies in China, from Haoxiangni Health Food Co., Ltd. for cash. The total consideration transferred was approximately $0.7 billion. The purchase price will be adjusted for net working capital amounts as of the acquisition date compared to targeted amounts set forth in the acquisition agreement.
We accounted for the transaction as a business combination. We recognized and measured the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their estimated fair values on the date of acquisition, in our APAC segment. The assets acquired and liabilities assumed in Be & Cheery as of the acquisition date, which primarily include goodwill and other intangible assets of $0.7 billion, are based on preliminary estimates that are subject to revisions and may result in adjustments to preliminary values as valuations are finalized. We expect to finalize these amounts as soon as possible, but no later than the third quarter of 2021.
Acquisition of SodaStream International Ltd. (SodaStream)
On December 5, 2018, we acquired all of the outstanding shares of SodaStream, a manufacturer and distributor of sparkling water makers, for $144.00 per share in cash, in a transaction valued at approximately $3.3 billion. The total consideration transferred was $3.3 billion (or $3.2 billion, net of cash and cash equivalents acquired). The purchase price allocation was finalized in the fourth quarter of 2019. See Note 14 to our consolidated financial statements in our 2019 Form 10-K for further information.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
FINANCIAL REVIEW
Our discussion and analysis is intended to help the reader understand our results of operations and financial condition and is provided as an addition to, and should be read in connection with, our condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. Unless otherwise noted, tabular dollars are presented in millions, except per share amounts. All per share amounts reflect common stock per share amounts, assume dilution unless otherwise noted, and are based on unrounded amounts. Percentage changes are based on unrounded amounts.
Our Critical Accounting Policies
The critical accounting policies below should be read in conjunction with those outlined in our 2019 Form 10-K.
Total Marketplace Spending
We offer sales incentives and discounts through various programs to customers and consumers. Total marketplace spending includes sales incentives, discounts, advertising and other marketing activities. Sales incentives and discounts are primarily accounted for as a reduction of revenue. A number of our sales incentives, such as bottler funding to independent bottlers and customer volume rebates, are based on annual targets, and accruals are established during the year, as products are delivered, for the expected payout, which may occur after year-end once reconciled and settled.
28

Table of Contents    

These accruals are based on contract terms and our historical experience with similar programs and require management judgment with respect to estimating customer and consumer participation and performance levels. Differences between estimated expense and actual incentive costs are normally insignificant and are recognized in earnings in the period such differences are determined. In addition, certain advertising and marketing costs are also based on annual targets and recognized during the year as incurred.
For interim reporting, our policy is to allocate our forecasted full-year sales incentives for most of our programs to each of our interim reporting periods in the same year that benefits from the programs. The allocation methodology is based on our forecasted sales incentives for the full year and the proportion of each interim period’s actual gross revenue or volume, as applicable, to our forecasted annual gross revenue or volume, as applicable. Based on our review of the forecasts at each interim period, any changes in estimates and the related allocation of sales incentives are recognized beginning in the interim period that they are identified. In addition, we apply a similar allocation methodology for interim reporting purposes for certain advertising and other marketing activities.
Income Taxes
In determining our quarterly provision for income taxes, we use an estimated annual effective tax rate which is based on our expected annual income, statutory tax rates and tax planning strategies and transactions, including transfer pricing arrangements, available to us in the various jurisdictions in which we operate. Significant judgment is required in determining our annual tax rate and in evaluating our tax positions. Subsequent recognition, derecognition and measurement of a tax position taken in a previous period are separately recognized in the quarter in which they occur. 
Our Business Risks
This Form 10-Q contains statements reflecting our views about our future performance that constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (Reform Act).

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Our Business Risks” and “Item 1A. Risk Factors” of this Form 10-Q. Investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date they are made. We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
COVID-19
Our global operations continue to expose us to risks associated with the COVID-19 pandemic, which continues to result in challenging operating environments and has affected almost all of the more than 200 countries and territories in which our products are made, manufactured, distributed or sold. Authorities in many of these markets have implemented numerous and varying measures to stall the spread and ameliorate the impact of COVID-19, including travel bans and restrictions, quarantines, curfews, restrictions on public gatherings, shelter in place and safer-at-home orders, business shutdowns and closures, and have also implemented multi-step policies with the goal of re-opening these markets. These measures have impacted and will continue to impact us, our customers (including our foodservice customers), consumers, employees, bottlers, contract manufacturers, distributors, joint venture partners, suppliers and other third parties with whom we do business. The countries and territories in which our products are made, manufactured, distributed or sold continue to operate in varying stages of restrictions and re-opening to address the COVID-19 pandemic. While some of these restrictions have been lifted or eased in certain jurisdictions, other jurisdictions have seen increases in new COVID-19 cases resulting in restrictions being reinstated, or new restrictions imposed in these jurisdictions. There continues to be considerable uncertainty regarding how current and future health and safety measures implemented in response to the pandemic will impact our business, including whether they will result in further changes in demand for our products, further increases in operating costs (whether as a result of changes to our supply chain or increases in employee costs, operating costs or otherwise), how they will further impact our supply chain and whether they will result in further reduced availability of air or other commercial transport, port closures or border restrictions, each or all of which can impact our ability to make, manufacture, distribute and sell our products. To date, we have experienced employee absenteeism which has resulted in reduced manufacturing capacity at certain of our facilities and we have incurred increased costs as a result of COVID-19, including increased employee costs, such as expanded benefits and frontline incentives, and other operating costs, such as costs associated with the provision of personal protective equipment and increased sanitation, allowances for credit losses, upfront payment write-offs
30

Table of Contents    

and inventory write-offs, which have negatively impacted and may continue to negatively impact our profitability. In addition, measures that impact our ability to access our offices (some of which remain closed), plants, warehouses, distribution centers or other facilities, or that impact the ability of our customers (including our foodservice customers), consumers, bottlers, contract manufacturers, distributors, joint venture partners, suppliers and other third parties to do the same, may continue to impact the availability of our and their employees, many of whom are not able to perform their job functions remotely. We continue to implement safety protocols at our facilities, including temperature checks, health screening, providing personal protective equipment, increased sanitation, requiring the use of masks and facilitating social distancing in work and dining spaces, and have been working and will continue to work closely with our business partners on contingency planning in an effort to maintain supply. To date, we have not experienced a material disruption to our operations or supply chain, although we can reasonably envision that possibility.
Public concern regarding the risk of contracting COVID-19 has impacted and may continue to impact demand from consumers, including due to consumers not leaving their homes or leaving their homes less often than they did prior to the start of the pandemic or otherwise shopping and consuming food and beverage products in a different manner than they historically have or because some of our consumers have lower discretionary income due to unemployment or reduced or limited work as a result of measures taken in response to the pandemic. Changes in consumer demand as a result of COVID-19 continue to vary in scope and timing by jurisdiction as we sell a wide variety of beverages, foods and snacks and the amount of revenue attributable to such products varies across these markets. Even as governmental restrictions continue to be relaxed and economies gradually, partially, or fully reopen in certain of these markets, the ongoing economic impacts and health concerns associated with the pandemic may continue to affect consumer behavior, spending levels and shopping and consumption preferences. In addition, as a result of COVID-19, certain jurisdictions, such as certain states in Mexico, have enacted or are considering enacting new or expanded product labeling or warning requirements or limitations on the marketing or sale of certain of our products as a result of ingredients or substances contained in such products. Changes in consumer purchasing and consumption patterns may increase demand for our products in one quarter, resulting in decreased consumer demand for our products in subsequent quarters, or in one sales channel resulting in potentially reduced profit from sales of our products. We continue to see shifts in product and channel preferences as markets move through varying stages of restrictions and re-opening at different times, including changes in at-home consumption, in immediate consumption and away-from-home channels, such as convenience and gas and foodservice. In addition, we continue to see a rapid increase in demand in the e-commerce and online-to-offline channels and any failure to capitalize on this demand could adversely affect our ability to maintain and grow sales or category share and erode our competitive position.
Any reduced demand for our products or change in consumer purchasing and consumption patterns, as well as continued economic uncertainty, can adversely affect our customers’ and business partners’ financial condition, which can result in an inability to pay for our products, reduced or canceled orders of our products, continued or additional closing of restaurants, stores, entertainment or sports complexes, schools or other venues in which our products are sold, or reduced capacity at any of the foregoing, or our business partners’ inability to supply us with ingredients or other items necessary for us to make, manufacture, distribute or sell our products. Such adverse changes in our customers’ or business partners’ financial condition have also resulted and may continue to result in our recording additional impairment charges for our inability to recover or collect any accounts receivable, owned or leased assets, including certain foodservice and vending and other equipment, or prepaid expenses. In addition, continued economic uncertainty associated with the COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in volatility in the global capital and credit markets which can impair our ability to access these markets on terms commercially acceptable to us, or at all.
31

Table of Contents    

While we have developed and implemented and continue to develop and implement health and safety protocols, business continuity plans and crisis management protocols in an effort to try to mitigate the negative impact of COVID-19 to our employees and our business, the extent of the impact of the pandemic on our business and financial results will continue to depend on numerous evolving factors that we are not able to accurately predict and which will vary by market, including the duration and scope of the pandemic, global economic conditions during and after the pandemic, governmental actions that have been taken, or may be taken in the future, in response to the pandemic and changes in consumer behavior in response to the pandemic, some of which may be more than just temporary.
Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act
The CARES Act was enacted on March 27, 2020 in the United States. The CARES Act and related notices include several significant provisions, including delaying certain payroll tax payments, mandatory transition tax payments under the TCJ Act and estimated income tax payments that we are deferring to future periods. Estimated federal income tax payments and mandatory transition tax payments under the TCJ Act were made in the third quarter of 2020 and are no longer deferred. Additionally, we expect to pay the previously deferred payroll taxes in the fourth quarter of 2020. We do not currently expect the CARES Act to have a material impact on our financial results, including on our annual estimated effective tax rate or on our liquidity. We will continue to monitor and assess the impact the CARES Act and similar legislation in other countries may have on our business and financial results.
Refer to the COVID-19 discussion above and Note 5 to our condensed consolidated financial statements for further information.
Risks Associated with International Operations
In the 12 weeks ended September 5, 2020, substantially all of our financial results outside of North America reflect the months of June, July and August. In the 36 weeks ended September 5, 2020, substantially all of our financial results outside of North America reflect the months of January through August. In the 36 weeks ended September 5, 2020, our operations outside of the United States generated 40% of our consolidated net revenue, with Brazil, Canada, China, Mexico, Russia and the United Kingdom comprising approximately 20% of our consolidated net revenue. As a result, we are exposed to foreign exchange risk in the international markets in which our products are made, manufactured, distributed or sold. In each of the 12 and 36 weeks ended September 5, 2020, unfavorable foreign exchange reduced net revenue growth by 2 percentage points, primarily due to declines in the Mexican peso, Brazilian real and Russian ruble. Currency declines against the U.S. dollar which are not offset could adversely impact our future financial results.
In addition, volatile economic, political and social conditions and civil unrest in certain markets in which our products are made, manufactured, distributed or sold, including in Argentina, Brazil, China, Mexico, the Middle East, Russia and Turkey and currency controls or fluctuations in certain of these international markets, continue to, and the threat or imposition of tariffs in or related to these international markets may, result in challenging operating environments.
We continue to monitor the economic and political developments related to the United Kingdom’s withdrawal from the European Union, including how the United Kingdom will interact with other European Union countries following its departure, as well as the economic, operating and political environment in Russia and the potential impact for the Europe segment and our other businesses.
See Note 9 to our condensed consolidated financial statements in this Form 10-Q for the fair values of our financial instruments as of September 5, 2020 and December 28, 2019 and Note 9 to our consolidated financial statements in our 2019 Form 10-K for a discussion of these items. Cautionary statements included above and in “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in this Form 10-Q, and in “Item 1A. Risk Factors” and in
32

Table of Contents    

“Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Our Business Risks” in our 2019 Form 10-K should be considered when evaluating our trends and future results.
Imposition of Taxes and Regulations on our Products
Certain jurisdictions in which our products are made, manufactured, distributed or sold have either imposed, or are considering imposing, new or increased taxes or regulations on the manufacture, distribution or sale of our products or their packaging, ingredients or substances contained in, or attributes of, our products or their packaging, commodities used in the production of our products or their packaging or the recyclability or recoverability of our packaging. These taxes and regulations vary in scope and form. For example, some taxes apply to all beverages, including non-caloric beverages, while others apply only to beverages with a caloric sweetener (e.g., sugar). In addition, some regulations apply to all products using certain types of packaging (e.g., plastic), while others are designed to increase the sustainability of packaging, encourage waste reduction and increased recycling rates or facilitate the waste management process or restrict the sale of products in certain packaging.
We sell a wide variety of beverages, foods and snacks in more than 200 countries and territories and the profile of the products we sell, the amount of revenue attributable to such products and the type of packaging used vary by jurisdiction. Because of this, we cannot predict the scope or form potential taxes, regulations or other limitations on our products or their packaging may take, and therefore cannot predict the impact of such taxes, regulations or limitations on our financial results. In addition, taxes, regulations and limitations may impact us and our competitors differently. We continue to monitor existing and proposed taxes and regulations in the jurisdictions in which our products are made, manufactured, distributed and sold and to consider actions we may take to potentially mitigate the unfavorable impact, if any, of such taxes, regulations or limitations, including advocating alternative measures with respect to the imposition, form and scope of any such taxes, regulations or limitations.
Tax Cuts and Jobs Act
During the fourth quarter of 2017, the TCJ Act was enacted in the United States. The related provisional measurement period allowed by the SEC ended in the fourth quarter of 2018. While our accounting for the recorded impact of the TCJ Act was deemed to be complete, additional guidance issued by the IRS impacted our recorded amounts after December 29, 2018. For further information on the impact of the TCJ Act, see Note 5 to our condensed consolidated financial statements and “Our Liquidity and Capital Resources” in this Form 10-Q, as well as Note 5 to our consolidated financial statements in our 2019 Form 10-K.
Other Tax Matters
On May 19, 2019, a public referendum held in Switzerland passed the TRAF, effective January 1, 2020. In the 12 and 36 weeks ended September 5, 2020, we recorded net tax benefits of $77 million primarily related to the adoption of the TRAF in the Swiss Canton of Bern in the third quarter of 2020. In the 12 and 36 weeks ended September 7, 2019, we recorded net tax benefits of $45 million and $33 million, respectively, related to the TRAF. While the accounting for the impacts of the TRAF are deemed to be complete, further adjustments to our financial statements and related disclosures could be made in future quarters, including in connection with final tax return filings.
See Note 5 to our condensed consolidated financial statements in this Form 10-Q, as well as Note 5 to our consolidated financial statements in our 2019 Form 10-K for further information.

Retail Landscape
Additionally, our industry continues to be affected by disruption of the retail landscape, including the rapid growth in sales through e-commerce websites and mobile commerce applications, including through subscription services, the integration of physical and digital operations among retailers and the international expansion of hard discounters. We have seen and expect to continue to see a further shift to e-commerce, online-to-offline, and other online purchasing by consumers as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. We continue to monitor changes in the retail landscape and seek to identify actions we may take to build our global e-commerce and digital capabilities, such as expanding our direct-to-consumer business, and distribute our products effectively through all existing and emerging channels of trade and potentially mitigate any unfavorable impacts on our future results.
Results of Operations – Consolidated Review
Consolidated Results
Volume
Volume is one of the key metrics management uses internally to make operating and strategic decisions, including the preparation of our annual operating plan and the evaluation of our business performance. We believe volume provides additional information to facilitate the comparison of our historical operating performance and underlying trends, and provides additional transparency on how we evaluate our business because it measures demand for our products at the consumer level. Refer to “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Our Financial Results – Volume” included in our 2019 Form 10-K for further information on volume.
We report substantially all of our international beverage volume on a monthly calendar basis. The 12 weeks ended September 5, 2020 include beverage volume outside of North America for the months of June, July and August. The 36 weeks ended September 5, 2020 include beverage volume outside of North America for the months of January through August.
Our divisions’ physical volume measures are converted into servings based on U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recommended guidelines for single-serving sizes of food and beverage products. The FDA revised the guidelines on recommended serving size for beverage products, effective January 1, 2020. Previously, FDA guidelines recommended a serving size of 8 fluid ounces for all beverages. The revised guidelines recommend a serving size of 8 fluid ounces for beverages that consist of milk, fruit juices, nectars and fruit drinks and 12 fluid ounces for other beverages. No changes were recommended to the serving size of food products. The revised guidelines have been retrospectively applied to our prior-year servings. For the 12 and 36 weeks ended September 5, 2020, total servings increased 13% and 7%, respectively, primarily reflecting the contributions from our recent acquisitions. See Note 12 to our condensed consolidated financial statements for further information.

12 Weeks
Operating profit grew 5.5% and operating profit margin was flat. Operating profit growth was primarily driven by productivity savings and net revenue growth, partially offset by certain operating cost increases.
A favorable mark-to-market net impact on commodity derivatives included in “Items Affecting Comparability” contributed 3 percentage points to operating profit growth. Additionally, the charges taken as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic reduced operating profit growth by 5 percentage points. See Note 1 to our condensed consolidated financial statements for further information.
36 Weeks
Operating profit decreased 4.5% and operating profit margin decreased 1.2 percentage points. Operating profit performance was primarily driven by certain operating cost increases, partially offset by productivity savings and net revenue growth.
Higher inventory fair value adjustments and merger and integration charges included in “Items Affecting Comparability” negatively impacted operating profit performance by 3 percentage points. Additionally, the charges taken as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic negatively impacted operating profit performance by 8 percentage points. See Note 1 to our condensed consolidated financial statements for further information.
Results of Operations – Division Review
As previously disclosed in our 2019 Form 10-K, our historical segment reporting presented in this report has been retrospectively revised to reflect the new organizational structure. These changes did not impact our consolidated financial results.
While our financial results in North America are reported on a 12-week basis, substantially all of our international operations report on a monthly calendar basis for which the months of June, July and August are reflected in our results for the 12 weeks ended September 5, 2020, and the months of January through August are reflected in our results for the 36 weeks ended September 5, 2020.
See “Non-GAAP Measures” and “Items Affecting Comparability” for a discussion of items to consider when evaluating our results and related information regarding measures not in accordance with GAAP.
In the discussions of net revenue and operating profit below, “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, and “net pricing” reflects the year-over-year combined impact of list price changes, weight changes per package, discounts and allowances. Additionally, “acquisitions and divestitures” reflect all mergers and acquisitions activity, including the impact of acquisitions, divestitures and changes in ownership or control in consolidated subsidiaries and nonconsolidated equity investees.

(b)Excludes the impact of acquisitions and divestitures. In certain instances, volume growth varies from the amounts disclosed in the following divisional discussions due to nonconsolidated joint venture volume, and, for our beverage businesses, temporary timing differences between bottler case sales and concentrate shipments and equivalents (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.
Operating Profit, Operating Profit Adjusted for Items Affecting Comparability and Operating Profit Growth Adjusted for Items Affecting Comparability on a Constant Currency Basis
Operating profit adjusted for items affecting comparability and operating profit growth adjusted for items affecting comparability on a constant currency basis are both non-GAAP financial measures.

Other pension and retiree medical benefits income increased $48 million, reflecting the recognition of fixed income gains on plan assets, the impact of approved discretionary plan contributions and higher prior-year settlement losses, partially offset by the decrease in discount rates.
Net interest expense and other increased $40 million, primarily due to higher average debt balances and lower interest rates on cash, partially offset by lower interest rates on debt, higher average cash balances and higher gains on the market value of investments used to economically hedge a portion of our deferred compensation liability.
The reported tax rate decreased 2.4 percentage points, primarily reflecting the net tax benefits related to the TRAF.
Net income attributable to PepsiCo increased 9% and net income attributable to PepsiCo per common share increased 10%. Items affecting comparability (see “Items Affecting Comparability”) positively contributed 4 percentage points to both net income attributable to PepsiCo growth and net income attributable to PepsiCo per common share growth. Additionally, the charges taken as a result of the

COVID-19 pandemic negatively impacted both net income attributable to PepsiCo growth and net income attributable to PepsiCo per common share growth by 5 percentage points.
36 Weeks
Other pension and retiree medical benefits income increased $84 million, reflecting the recognition of fixed income gains on plan assets, the impact of approved discretionary plan contributions and higher prior-year settlement losses, partially offset by the decrease in discount rates.
Net interest expense and other increased $138 million, primarily due to higher average debt balances, lower interest rates on cash, as well as lower gains on the market value of investments used to economically hedge a portion of our deferred compensation liability. These impacts were partially offset by lower interest rates on debt and higher average cash balances.
The reported tax rate decreased 0.7 percentage points, reflecting a prior-year increase in reserves for uncertain tax positions in foreign jurisdictions and the net tax benefits related to the TRAF. These impacts were partially offset by a prior-year tax benefit related to an international restructuring and current-year non-deductible expenses related to an acquisition.
Net income attributable to PepsiCo decreased 5% and net income attributable to PepsiCo per common share decreased 4%. Items affecting comparability (see “Items Affecting Comparability”) negatively impacted both net income attributable to PepsiCo performance and net income attributable to PepsiCo per common share performance by 3 percentage points. Additionally, the charges taken as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic negatively impacted both net income attributable to PepsiCo performance and net income attributable to PepsiCo per common share performance by 9 percentage points.
Non-GAAP Measures
Certain financial measures contained in this Form 10-Q adjust for the impact of specified items and are not in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We use 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 in this Form 10-Q 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 in this Form 10-Q 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 and “Items Affecting Comparability” for a description of adjustments to our U.S. GAAP financial measures in this Form 10-Q. 
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.

Table of Contents    

The following non-GAAP financial measures contained in this Form 10-Q are discussed below:
Cost of sales, gross profit, selling, general and administrative expenses, other pension and retiree medical benefits income, provision for income taxes, net income attributable to noncontrolling interests and net income attributable to PepsiCo, each adjusted for items affecting comparability, operating profit and net income attributable to PepsiCo per common share – diluted, each adjusted for items affecting comparability, and the corresponding constant currency growth rates
These measures exclude the net impact of mark-to-market gains and losses on centrally managed commodity derivatives that do not qualify for hedge accounting, restructuring and impairment charges related to our 2019 Productivity Plan, inventory fair value adjustments and merger and integration charges associated with our acquisitions and net tax related to the TCJ Act (see “Items Affecting Comparability” for a detailed description of each of these items). We also evaluate performance on operating profit, adjusted for items affecting comparability and net income attributable to PepsiCo per common share diluted, adjusted for items affecting comparability, each on a constant currency basis, which measure our 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. We believe these measures provide useful information in evaluating the results of our business because they exclude items that we believe are not indicative of our ongoing performance.
Organic revenue growth
We define organic revenue growth as net revenue growth adjusted for the impact of foreign exchange translation, as well as the impact from acquisitions, divestitures and other structural changes. We believe organic revenue growth provides useful information in evaluating the results of our business because it excludes items that we believe are not indicative of ongoing performance or that we believe impact comparability with the prior year.
See “Net Revenue and Organic Revenue Growth” in “Results of Operations – Division Review” for further information.
Free cash flow
We define free cash flow as 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.
See “Free Cash Flow” in “Our Liquidity and Capital Resources” for further information.

(a)Provision for income taxes is the expected tax charge/benefit on the underlying item based on the tax laws and income tax rates applicable to the underlying item in its corresponding tax jurisdiction.
Mark-to-Market Net Impact
We centrally manage commodity derivatives on behalf of our divisions. These commodity derivatives include energy, agricultural products and metals. Commodity derivatives that do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment are marked to market each period with the resulting gains and losses recorded in corporate unallocated expenses as either cost of sales or selling, general and administrative expenses, depending on the underlying commodity. These gains and losses are subsequently reflected in division results when the divisions recognize the cost of the underlying commodity in operating profit. Therefore, the divisions realize the economic effects of the derivative without experiencing any resulting mark-to-market volatility, which remains in corporate unallocated expenses.
Restructuring and Impairment Charges
2019 Multi-Year Productivity Plan
In connection with our 2019 Productivity Plan, we expect to incur pre-tax charges of approximately $2.5 billion, of which we have incurred $632 million plan to date through September 5, 2020, and cash expenditures of approximately $1.6 billion, of which we have incurred approximately $428 million plan to date through September 5, 2020. We expect to incur pre-tax charges of approximately $150 million and cash expenditures of approximately $100 million for the remainder of 2020, with the balance to be reflected in our 2021 through 2023 financial results. These charges will be funded primarily through cash from operations. We expect to incur the majority of the remaining pre-tax charges and cash expenditures in our 2021 and 2022 results.
See Note 3 to our condensed consolidated financial statements in this Form 10-Q, as well as Note 3 to our consolidated financial statements in our 2019 Form 10-K, for further information related to our 2019 Productivity Plan.
We regularly evaluate productivity initiatives beyond the productivity plan and other initiatives discussed above and in Note 3 to our condensed consolidated financial statements.
Inventory Fair Value Adjustments and Merger and Integration Charges
In the 12 and 36 weeks ended September 5, 2020, we recorded inventory fair value adjustments and merger and integration charges of $43 million ($27 million after-tax or $0.02 per share) and $286 million ($254 million after-tax or $0.18 per share), respectively. Inventory fair value adjustments and merger and integration charges include fair value adjustments to the acquired inventory included in the acquisition-date balance sheets, and closing costs, employee-related costs, changes in the fair value of contingent consideration and contract termination costs related to our acquisitions of BFY Brands, Rockstar, Pioneer
49

Table of Contents    

Foods and Be & Cheery. Merger and integration charges also include liabilities to support socioeconomic programs in South Africa related to our acquisition of Pioneer Foods.
In the 12 and 36 weeks ended September 7, 2019, we recorded inventory fair value adjustments and merger and integration charges of $7 million ($6 million after-tax with a nominal amount per share) and $46 million ($38 million after-tax or $0.03 per share), respectively. These charges primarily relate to SodaStream’s acquired inventory included in the acquisition-date balance sheet, as well as merger and integration charges, including employee-related costs.
See Note 12 to our condensed consolidated financial statements for further information.
Net Tax Related to the TCJ Act
During the fourth quarter of 2017, the TCJ Act was enacted in the United States. We recognized tax benefits of $29 million ($0.02 per share) in the 36 weeks ended September 7, 2019 related to the TCJ Act.
See Note 5 to our condensed consolidated financial statements for further information.
Our Liquidity and Capital Resources
We believe that our cash generating capability and financial condition, together with our revolving credit facilities, working capital lines and other available methods of debt financing, such as commercial paper borrowings and long-term debt financing, will be adequate to meet our operating, investing and financing needs. Our primary sources of cash available to fund cash outflows, such as our anticipated share repurchases, dividend payments, debt repayments, payments for acquisitions, including the contingent consideration related to Rockstar, and the transition tax liability under the TCJ Act, include cash from operations, proceeds obtained from issuances of commercial paper and long-term debt, and cash and cash equivalents. Our sources and uses of cash were not materially impacted by COVID-19 in the 36 weeks ended September 5, 2020 and, to date, we have not identified any material liquidity deficiencies as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Based on the information currently available to us, we do not expect the impact of COVID-19 to have a material impact on our liquidity. We will continue to monitor and assess the impact COVID-19 may have on our business and financial results. See “Item 1A. Risk Factors,” “Our Business Risks” and Note 8 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Form 10-Q and “Item 1A. Risk Factors” and “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Our Business Risks,” as well as Note 8 to our consolidated financial statements included in our 2019 Form 10-K for further information.
As of September 5, 2020, cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments in our consolidated subsidiaries subject to currency controls or currency exchange restrictions were not material.
The TCJ Act imposed a mandatory one-time transition tax on undistributed international earnings. As of September 5, 2020, our mandatory transition tax liability was $3.2 billion, which must be paid through 2026 under the provisions of the TCJ Act. See Note 5 to our condensed consolidated financial statements for further discussion of the TCJ Act.
The CARES Act was enacted on March 27, 2020 in the United States. The CARES Act and related notices include several significant provisions, including delaying certain payroll tax payments, mandatory transition tax payments under the TCJ Act and estimated income tax payments that we are deferring to future periods. Estimated federal income tax payments and mandatory transition tax payments under the TCJ Act were made in the third quarter of 2020 and are no longer deferred. Additionally, we expect to pay the previously deferred payroll taxes in the fourth quarter of 2020. We will continue to monitor and assess the impact the CARES Act and similar legislation in other countries may have on our business and financial results.

Operating Activities
During the 36 weeks ended September 5, 2020, net cash provided by operating activities was $6.1 billion, compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $5.1 billion in the prior-year period. The operating cash flow performance primarily reflects favorable net working capital comparisons to 2019 and lower net cash tax payments in the current year.
Investing Activities
During the 36 weeks ended September 5, 2020, net cash used for investing activities was $8.8 billion, primarily reflecting net cash paid in connection with our acquisitions of RockStar of $3.85 billion, Pioneer Foods of $1.2 billion and Be & Cheery of $0.7 billion, as well as net capital spending of $2.0 billion.
For 2020, we now expect net capital spending to be approximately $4 billion, a reduction from our previously announced net capital spending expectation of approximately $5 billion, in light of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Financing Activities
During the 36 weeks ended September 5, 2020, net cash provided by financing activities was $6.4 billion, primarily reflecting proceeds from issuances of long-term debt of $10.6 billion and net proceeds of short-term borrowings of $2.3 billion, partially offset by the return of operating cash flow to our shareholders through dividend payments and share repurchases of $5.6 billion and payments of long-term debt of $0.8 billion.
We annually review our capital structure with our Board of Directors, including our dividend policy and share repurchase activity. On February 13, 2018, we announced the 2018 share repurchase program providing for the repurchase of up to $15.0 billion of PepsiCo common stock which commenced on July 1, 2018 and will expire on June 30, 2021. On February 13, 2020, we announced a 7% increase in our annualized dividend to $4.09 per share from $3.82 per share, effective with the dividend paid in June 2020. We expect to return a total of approximately $7.5 billion to shareholders in 2020 through share repurchases of approximately $2 billion and dividends of approximately $5.5 billion. See Part II, “Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds” for a description of our share repurchase program.
Free Cash Flow
The table below reconciles net cash provided by operating activities, as reflected on our cash flow statement, to our free cash flow. Free cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure. For further information on free cash flow see “Non-GAAP Measures.”

Table of Contents    

We use free cash flow primarily for acquisitions and financing activities, including debt repayments, dividends and share repurchases. We expect to continue to return free cash flow to our shareholders through dividends and share repurchases while maintaining Tier 1 commercial paper access, which we believe will facilitate appropriate financial flexibility and ready access to global capital and credit markets at favorable interest rates. See “Our Business Risks” included in this Form 10-Q and “Item 1A. Risk Factors” and “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Our Business Risks,” included in our 2019 Form 10-K, for certain factors that may impact our credit ratings or our operating cash flows.
Any downgrade of our credit ratings by a credit rating agency, especially any downgrade to below investment grade, whether or not as a result of our actions or factors which are beyond our control, could increase our future borrowing costs and impair our ability to access capital and credit markets on terms commercially acceptable to us, or at all. In addition, any downgrade of our current short-term credit ratings could impair our ability to access the commercial paper market with the same flexibility that we have experienced historically, and therefore require us to rely more heavily on more expensive types of debt financing. See Note 8 to our condensed consolidated financial statements, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” and “Our Business Risks” included in this Form 10-Q, as well as “Item 1A. Risk Factors” and “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Our Business Risks” included in our 2019 Form 10-K for further information.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Shareholders and Board of Directors
PepsiCo, Inc.:
Results of Review of Interim Financial Information
We have reviewed the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet of PepsiCo, Inc. and subsidiaries (the Company) as of September 5, 2020, the related Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income, Comprehensive Income and Equity for the twelve and thirty-six weeks ended September 5, 2020 and September 7, 2019, the related Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows for the thirty-six weeks ended September 5, 2020 and September 7, 2019, and the related notes (collectively, the consolidated interim financial information). Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the consolidated interim financial information for it to be in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
We have previously audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the Consolidated Balance Sheet of the Company as of December 28, 2019, and the related Consolidated Statements of Income, Comprehensive Income, Cash Flows and Equity for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated February 13, 2020, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 28, 2019, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the Consolidated Balance Sheet from which it has been derived.
Basis for Review Results
This consolidated interim financial information is the responsibility of the Company’s management. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our reviews in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. A review of consolidated interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
See “Item 1A. Risk Factors” and “Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Our Business Risks.” In addition, see “Item 1A. Risk Factors,” “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Our Business Risks” and Note 9 to our consolidated financial statements in our 2019 Form 10-K.
ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures.
As of the end of the period covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act). Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that as of the end of the period covered by this report our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is (1) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and (2) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during our third quarter of 2020 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
During our third quarter of 2020, we continued migrating certain of our financial processing systems to an enterprise-wide systems solution. These systems implementations are part of our ongoing global business transformation initiative, and we plan to continue implementing such systems throughout other parts of our businesses. In addition, in connection with our 2019 Productivity Plan, we continue to migrate to shared business service models across our operations to further simplify, harmonize and automate processes. In connection with these implementations and resulting business process changes, we continue to enhance the design and documentation of our internal control over financial reporting processes to maintain effective controls over our financial reporting. These transitions have not materially affected, and we do not expect them to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. Legal Proceedings.
The following information should be read in conjunction with the discussion set forth under Part I, “Item 3. Legal Proceedings” in our 2019 Form 10-K.
We and our subsidiaries are party to a variety of litigation, claims, legal or regulatory proceedings, inquiries and investigations. While the results of such litigation, claims, legal or regulatory proceedings, inquiries and investigations cannot be predicted with certainty, management believes that the final outcome of the foregoing will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. See also “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in this Form 10-Q and “Item 1. Business – Regulatory Matters” and “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our 2019 Form 10-K.
ITEM 1A. Risk Factors.
The following additional risk factor relating to COVID-19 should be read in conjunction with the risk factors set forth under “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our 2019 Form 10-K and our Form 10-Qs for the fiscal quarter ended March 21, 2020 (Q1 2020 Form 10-Q) and the fiscal quarter ended June 13, 2020 (Q2 2020 Form 10-Q) . The developments described in this additional risk factor have heightened, or in some cases manifested, certain of the risks disclosed in the risk factor section of our 2019 Form 10-K, and such risk factors are further qualified by the information relating to COVID-19 that is described in this Form 10-Q and our Q1 2020 Form 10-Q and Q2 2020 Form 10-Q, including in the additional risk factor below. Except as described herein and in our Q1 2020 Form 10-Q and Q2 2020 Form 10-Q, there have been no material changes with respect to the risk factors disclosed in our 2019 Form 10-K.
You should carefully consider the risks described below and in our 2019 Form 10-K, Q1 2020 Form 10-Q and Q2 2020 Form 10-Q in addition to the other information set forth in this Form 10-Q, our Q2 2020 Form 10-Q, our Q1 2020 Form 10-Q and in our 2019 Form 10-K, including the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations sections and the consolidated financial statements and related notes. These risks, some of which have occurred and any of which may occur in the future, can have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations or the prices of our publicly traded securities. The risks described below and in our 2019 Form 10-K, our Q1 2020 Form 10-Q and our Q2 2020 Form 10-Q are not the only risks we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us, or that we currently deem to be immaterial, may occur or become material in the future and adversely affect our business, reputation, financial condition, results of operations or the prices of our publicly traded securities. Therefore, historical operating results, financial and business performance, events and trends are often not a reliable indicator of future operating results, financial and business performance, events or trends.
The impact of the spread of COVID-19 continues to create significant uncertainty for our business, financial condition and results of operations and for the prices of our publicly traded securities.
The extent of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business and financial results will continue to depend on numerous evolving factors that we are not able to accurately predict and which will vary by market, including the duration and scope of the pandemic, global economic conditions during and after the pandemic, governmental actions that have been taken, or may be taken in the future, in response to the pandemic, and changes in consumer behavior in response to the pandemic, some of which may be more than just temporary.
Our global operations continue to expose us to risks associated with the COVID-19 pandemic, which continues to result in challenging operating environments. COVID-19 continues to spread across the globe to almost all of the countries and territories in which our products are made, manufactured, distributed or

sold. Authorities in many of these markets have implemented numerous and varying measures to stall the spread and ameliorate the impact of COVID-19, including travel bans and restrictions, quarantines, curfews, restrictions on public gatherings, shelter in place and safer-at-home orders, business shutdowns and closures, and have also implemented multi-step policies with the goal of re-opening these markets. These measures have impacted and will continue to impact us, our customers (including our foodservice customers), consumers, employees, bottlers, contract manufacturers, distributors, joint venture partners, suppliers and other third parties with whom we do business. The countries and territories in which our products are made, manufactured, distributed or sold continue to operate in varying stages of restrictions and re-opening to address the COVID-19 pandemic. While some of these restrictions have been lifted or eased in certain jurisdictions, other jurisdictions have seen increases in new COVID-19 cases resulting in restrictions being reinstated, or new restrictions imposed in these jurisdictions. There continues to be considerable uncertainty regarding how current and future health and safety measures implemented in response to the pandemic will impact our business, including whether they will result in further changes in demand for our products, further increases in operating costs (whether as a result of changes to our supply chain or increases in employee costs, operating costs or otherwise), how they will further impact our supply chain and whether they will result in further reduced availability of air or other commercial transport, port closures or border restrictions, each or all of which can impact our ability to make, manufacture, distribute and sell our products. To date, we have experienced employee absenteeism which has resulted in reduced manufacturing capacity at certain of our facilities and we have incurred increased costs as a result of COVID-19, including increased employee costs, such as expanded benefits and frontline incentives, and other operating costs, such as costs associated with the provision of personal protective equipment and increased sanitation, allowances for credit losses, upfront payment write-offs and inventory write-offs, which have negatively impacted and may continue to negatively impact our profitability. In addition, measures that impact our ability to access our offices (some of which remain closed), plants, warehouses, distribution centers or other facilities, or that impact the ability of our customers (including our foodservice customers), consumers, bottlers, contract manufacturers, distributors, joint venture partners, suppliers and other third parties to do the same, may continue to impact the availability of our and their employees, many of whom are not able to perform their job functions remotely. If a significant percentage of our or our business partners’ workforce is unable to work, including because of illness, facility closures, quarantine, curfews, shelter in place orders, travel restrictions, social distancing requirements or other governmental restrictions or voluntarily adopted practices, our operations will be negatively impacted. Any sustained interruption in our or our business partners’ operations, distribution network or supply chain or any significant continuous shortage of raw materials or other supplies as a result of these measures, restrictions or disruptions, including as a result of increased demand for certain products, can impair our ability to make, manufacture, distribute or sell our products. Compliance with governmental measures imposed in response to COVID-19 has caused and will continue to cause us to incur additional costs, and any inability to comply with such measures can subject us to restrictions on our business activities, fines, and other penalties, any of which can adversely affect our business. In addition, the increase in certain of our employees working remotely has amplified certain risks to our business, including increased demand on our information technology resources and systems, increased phishing, business email compromise and other cybersecurity attacks, including increased introduction of malware, as cybercriminals try to exploit the uncertainty surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic, and an increase in the number of points of potential attack, such as laptops and mobile devices (both of which are now being used in increased numbers), to be secured, and any failure to effectively manage these risks, including to timely identify and appropriately respond to any cyberattacks or other disruption to our technology infrastructure, may adversely affect our business.
Public concern regarding the risk of contracting COVID-19 has impacted and may continue to impact demand from consumers, including due to consumers not leaving their homes or leaving their homes less

often than they did prior to the start of the pandemic or otherwise shopping and consuming food and beverage products in a different manner than they historically have or because some of our consumers have lower discretionary income due to unemployment or reduced or limited work as a result of measures taken in response to the pandemic. Changes in consumer demand as a result of COVID-19 continue to vary in scope and timing by jurisdiction as we sell a wide variety of beverages, foods and snacks, and the amount of revenue attributable to such products varies across these markets. Even as governmental restrictions continue to be relaxed and economies gradually partially or fully reopen in certain of these markets, the ongoing economic impacts and health concerns associated with the pandemic may continue to affect consumer behavior, spending levels and shopping and consumption preferences. In addition, as a result of COVID-19, certain jurisdictions, such as certain states in Mexico, have enacted or are considering enacting new or expanded product labeling or warning requirements or limitations on the marketing or sale of certain of our products as a result of ingredients or substances contained in such products. Changes in consumer purchasing and consumption patterns may increase demand for our products in one quarter, resulting in decreased consumer demand for our products in subsequent quarters, or in one sales channel resulting in potentially reduced profit from sales of our products. We continue to see shifts in product and channel preferences as markets move through varying stages of restrictions and re-opening at different times, including changes in at-home consumption, in immediate consumption and away-from-home channels, such as convenience and gas and foodservice. In addition, we continue to see a rapid increase in demand in the e-commerce and online-to-offline channels and any failure to capitalize on this demand could adversely affect our ability to maintain and grow sales or category share and erode our competitive position.
Any reduced demand for our products or change in consumer purchasing and consumption patterns, as well as continued economic uncertainty, can adversely affect our customers’ and business partners’ financial condition, which can result in an inability to pay for our products, reduced or canceled orders of our products, continued or additional closing of restaurants, stores, entertainment or sports complexes, schools or other venues in which our products are sold, or reduced capacity at any of the foregoing, or our business partners’ inability to supply us with ingredients or other items necessary for us to make, manufacture, distribute or sell our products. Such adverse changes in our customers’ or business partners’ financial condition have also resulted and may continue to result in our recording additional impairment charges for our inability to recover or collect any accounts receivable, owned or leased assets, including certain foodservice and vending and other equipment, or prepaid expenses. In addition, continued economic uncertainty associated with the COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in volatility in the global capital and credit markets which can impair our ability to access these markets on terms commercially acceptable to us, or at all.
While we have developed and implemented and continue to develop and implement health and safety protocols, business continuity plans and crisis management protocols in an effort to try to mitigate the negative impact of COVID-19 on our employees and our business, there can be no assurance that we will be successful in our efforts, and as a result, our business, financial condition and results of operations and the prices of our publicly traded securities may be adversely affected.
