Operating and Marketplace Highlights

• Organic revenue increased 3.9 percent year to date and core constant currency operating profit increased 8 percent year to date.  Reported operating profit increased 6 percent year to date.
• Core gross margin expanded 70 basis points in the quarter reflecting implementation of effective revenue management strategies.
• Core operating margin expanded in the quarter, including an 8 percent increase in advertising and marketing expense.  Reported operating margin declined 35 basis points in the quarter.
• PepsiCo Americas Foods organic revenue grew 7 percent in the quarter driven by mid-single-digit organic revenue growth at Frito-Lay North America and double-digit organic revenue growth in Latin America Foods. Reported net revenue increased 5 percent in the quarter driven by mid-single-digit net revenue growth at Frito-Lay North America and high-single-digit net revenue growth at Latin America Foods.
• In the U.S., the company's largest market, grew value, volume and unit market share in salty snacks in the quarter.
• Despite a challenging North America LRB category, NAB sequentially improved both volume and value market share performance in measured channels while leading the industry in net price realization at retail.
• AMEA organic revenue grew 6 percent in the quarter reflecting organic volume growth in both snacks and beverages, despite political and marketplace volatility in certain markets, notably Egypt and India.  Year-to-date, AMEA organic revenue increased 11 percent.  Reported net revenue in AMEA declined 3 percent in the quarter and 3 percent year to date, reflecting the impact of structural changes and foreign exchange translation.
• Developing and emerging market organic revenue grew 9 percent in the quarter.  On a reported basis, developing and emerging market net revenue grew 4 percent in the quarter reflecting structural changes and unfavorable foreign exchange translation.
• On track to deliver targeted $900 million of productivity savings during 2013 and $3 billion in productivity savings in 2012 through 2014.
• Management operating cash flow (excluding certain items) was $5.5 billion year to date, an increase of 12 percent. Cash flow from operations was $6.7 billion year to date, an increase of 30 percent. 
• Net capital spending was 4.1 percent of net sales over the past four quarters, within our long term objective of at or below 5 percent of net sales.

Summary of Third Quarter Financial Performance

• Organic revenue grew 3.3 percent and reported net revenue grew 1.5 percent.  Structural changes, principally the refranchising of the company's beverage operations in Vietnam, negatively impacted reported net revenue performance by nearly half a percentage point and foreign exchange translation had a more than 1-percentage-point unfavorable impact in the quarter. 
• Core constant currency operating profit rose 3 percent reflecting increased advertising and marketing expense and $28 million of incremental investments.  Reported operating profit declined 1 percent and included the net impact of mark-to-market losses on commodity hedges, and certain restructuring and impairment and merger and integration costs in both 2013 and 2012.  The incremental investments negatively impacted operating profit growth by 1 percentage point.
• The company's core effective tax rate was 25.5 percent and the reported effective tax rate was 25.4 percent, both below the prior year quarter due to geographic mix shift in the current year and the lapping of an adjustment to international deferred taxes in the prior year, partially offset by the lapping of tax benefits from an acquisition in the prior year.  The reported tax rate was also impacted by lapping net tax expense related to gains recognized on commodity hedges in the prior year.
• Core EPS was $1.24 and reported EPS was $1.23. Core EPS includes a $0.01 impact from incremental investments. Core EPS excludes a net impact of $0.01 per share related to mark-to-market net losses on commodity hedges and a nominal impact each from merger and integration charges and restructuring and impairment charges.  Mark-to-market gains and losses on commodity hedges are subsequently reflected in core division results when the divisions recognize the cost of the underlying commodity in net income.

Reported net revenue declined 2 percent reflecting a 1-percentage-point impact of unfavorable foreign exchange translation.

Core constant currency operating profit was even with the prior year quarter, reflecting the volume decline partially offset by favorable effective net pricing, lower commodity costs and productivity gains. 

Europe
Organic revenue grew 3 percent, primarily reflecting effective net pricing.  Snacks volume rose 3 percent while beverage volume declined 1 percent.  Reported net revenue grew 3 percent in the quarter, including a slight favorable foreign exchange translation impact.

Core constant currency operating profit rose 5 percent in the quarter, reflecting effective net pricing and continued productivity initiatives, partially offset by higher commodity costs. 

Asia, Middle East & Africa (AMEA)
Organic revenue grew 6 percent in the quarter driven by effective net pricing.  Ongoing macro-economic volatility negatively impacted our third quarter results in this region. Reported net revenue declined 3 percent, reflecting a 5-percentage-point negative impact from the refranchising of bottling operations in Vietnam, and an unfavorable 4-percentage-point impact from foreign exchange translation.

Core constant currency operating profit declined 7 percent, reflecting incremental investments and a significant increase in advertising and marketing expense, partially offset by effective net pricing.  Incremental investments negatively impacted operating profit by 7 percentage points.  The net impact of divestitures positively impacted operating profit by 3 percentage points.

2013 Guidance and Outlook
Consistent with its previous guidance for 2013, the company expects 7 percent core constant currency EPS growth versus its fiscal 2012 core EPS of $4.10. Based on the current foreign exchange market consensus, the company currently expects that foreign exchange translation will have an unfavorable impact of at least 2 percentage points on the company's full-year core EPS performance in 2013.

The company's full year 2013 core constant currency EPS guidance includes the impact of a gain in the second quarter related to refranchising its Vietnam beverage operations.  The impact of this gain is expected to be offset by the company's incremental investments in the second, third and fourth quarters of 2013.

Excluding the impact of structural changes and foreign exchange translation, organic revenue is expected to grow mid-single digits versus 2012, consistent with the company's long-term guidance. The impact of structural changes, principally beverage refranchisings, is expected to reduce net revenue growth by approximately 1 percentage point for the full year. Based on the current foreign exchange market consensus, the company currently expects foreign exchange translation to have an unfavorable impact of approximately 2 percentage points on the company's full year net revenue growth.

For 2013, the company expects low-single-digit commodity inflation, and productivity savings of approximately $900 million.  The company expects advertising and marketing expense to increase at or above the rate of net revenue growth.  The company expects higher interest expense driven by increased debt balances and a core effective tax rate of approximately 27 percent.

The company is targeting over $9 billion in cash flow from operating activities and more than $7 billion in management operating cash flow (excluding certain items) in 2013.  Net capital spending is expected to be approximately $3 billion in 2013, within the company's long-term capital spending target of less than or equal to 5 percent of net revenue.

The company expects to return a total of $6.4 billion to shareholders in 2013 through dividends of approximately $3.4 billion and share repurchases of approximately $3.0 billion.

Core: Core results are non-GAAP financial measures which exclude certain items from our historical results. In 2013, core results exclude the commodity mark-to-market net impact included in corporate unallocated expenses, merger and integration charges in connection with our acquisition of Wimm-Bill-Dann Foods OJSC (WBD), restructuring and impairment charges and a charge related to the Venezuela currency devaluation. In 2012, core results exclude the commodity mark-to-market net impact included in corporate unallocated expenses, merger and integration charges in connection with our acquisition of WBD, restructuring and impairment charges, restructuring and other charges related to the transaction with Tingyi, a pension lump sum settlement charge and a tax benefit related to a tax court decision. See "Reconciliation of GAAP and Non-GAAP Information" for additional information.

This non-GAAP financial measure is our primary measure used to monitor cash flow performance. See above for a reconciliation of this non-GAAP financial measure to the most directly comparable financial measure in accordance with GAAP (operating cash flow). See "Reconciliation of GAAP and Non-GAAP Information" for additional information.   

Mark-to-market gain or loss or net impact: Change in market value for commodity contracts that we purchase to mitigate the volatility in costs of energy and raw materials that we consume. The market value is determined based on average prices on national exchanges and recently reported transactions in the marketplace.

Net capital spending: Capital spending less cash proceeds from sales of property, plant and equipment.

Organic: A measure that adjusts for impacts of acquisitions, divestitures and other structural changes, and in the case of organic revenue, foreign exchange translation.

Reconciliation of GAAP and Non-GAAP Information (unaudited)
Division operating profit, core results, core constant currency results and organic results are non-GAAP financial measures as they exclude certain items noted below.  However, we believe investors should consider these measures as they are more indicative of our ongoing performance and reflect how management evaluates our operational results and trends.

Commodity mark-to-market net impact

In the 12 weeks ended September 7, 2013, we recognized $19 million of mark-to-market net losses on commodity hedges in corporate unallocated expenses. In the 36 weeks ended September 7, 2013, we recognized $74 million of mark-to-market net losses on commodity hedges in corporate unallocated expenses. In the 12 weeks ended September 8, 2012, we recognized $121 million of mark-to-market net gains on commodity hedges in corporate unallocated expenses. In the 36 weeks ended September 8, 2012, we recognized $126 million of mark-to-market net gains on commodity hedges in corporate unallocated expenses. In the year ended December 29, 2012, we recognized $65 million of mark-to-market net gains on commodity hedges in corporate unallocated expenses. We centrally manage commodity derivatives on behalf of our divisions. These commodity derivatives include agricultural products, energy and metals. Certain of these commodity derivatives do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment and are marked to market with the resulting gains and losses recognized 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 net income.

Merger and integration charges

In the 12 and 36 weeks ended September 7, 2013, we incurred merger and integration charges of $9 million related to our acquisition of WBD recorded in the Europe segment. In the 12 weeks ended September 8, 2012, we incurred merger and integration charges of $2 million related to our acquisition of WBD, including $4 million recorded in the Europe segment and income of $2 million recorded in corporate unallocated expenses representing adjustments of previously recorded amounts. In the 36 weeks ended September 8, 2012, we incurred merger and integration charges of $7 million related to our acquisition of WBD recorded in the Europe segment. In the year ended December 29, 2012, we incurred merger and integration charges of $16 million related to our acquisition of WBD, including $11 million recorded in the Europe segment and $5 million recorded in interest expense.

Restructuring and impairment charges

In the 12 weeks ended September 7, 2013, we incurred restructuring and impairment charges of $7 million in conjunction with our Productivity Plan, including $1 million recorded in the FLNA segment, $1 million recorded in the LAF segment, $3 million recorded in the PAB segment, $2 million recorded in the Europe segment, $1 million recorded in the AMEA segment and income of $1 million recorded in corporate unallocated expenses representing adjustments of previously recorded amounts. In the 36 weeks ended September 7, 2013, we incurred restructuring and impairment charges of $37 million in conjunction with our Productivity Plan, including $5 million recorded in the FLNA segment, $6 million recorded in the LAF segment, $8 million recorded in the PAB segment, $14 million recorded in the Europe segment, $3 million recorded in the AMEA segment and $1 million recorded in corporate unallocated expenses. In the 12 weeks ended September 8, 2012, we incurred restructuring and impairment charges of $83 million in conjunction with our Productivity Plan, including $8 million recorded in the FLNA segment, $1 million recorded in the QFNA segment, $29 million recorded in the LAF segment, $33 million recorded in the PAB segment, $6 million recorded in the AMEA segment, $7 million recorded in corporate unallocated expenses and income of $1 million recorded in the Europe segment representing adjustments of previously recorded amounts. In the 36 weeks ended September 8, 2012, we incurred restructuring and impairment charges of $193 million in conjunction with our Productivity Plan, including $40 million recorded in the FLNA segment, $7 million recorded in the QFNA segment, $41 million recorded in the LAF segment, $76 million recorded in the PAB segment, $23 million recorded in the AMEA segment, $8 million recorded in corporate unallocated expenses and income of $2 million recorded in the Europe segment representing adjustments of previously recorded amounts. In the year ended December 29, 2012, we incurred restructuring charges of $279 million in conjunction with our Productivity Plan, including $38 million recorded in the FLNA segment, $9 million recorded in the QFNA segment, $50 million recorded in the LAF segment, $102 million recorded in the PAB segment, $42 million recorded in the Europe segment, $28 million recorded in the AMEA segment and $10 million recorded in corporate unallocated expenses. The Productivity Plan includes actions in every aspect of our business that we believe will strengthen our complementary food, snack and beverage businesses by leveraging new technologies and processes across PepsiCo's operations, go-to-market and information systems; heightening the focus on best practice sharing across the globe; consolidating manufacturing, warehouse and sales facilities; and implementing simplified organization structures, with wider spans of control and fewer layers of management.

Venezuela currency devaluation

In the 36 weeks ended September 7, 2013, we recorded a $111 million net charge related to the devaluation of the bolivar fuerte for our Venezuela businesses. $124 million of this charge was recorded in corporate unallocated expenses, with the balance (equity income of $13 million) recorded in our PAB segment.

Restructuring and other charges related to the transaction with Tingyi

In the 36 weeks ended September 8, 2012, we recorded restructuring and other charges of $137 million in the AMEA segment related to the transaction with Tingyi. In the year ended December 29, 2012, we recorded restructuring and other charges of $150 million in the AMEA segment related to the transaction with Tingyi.

Pension lump sum settlement charge

In the year ended December 29, 2012, we recorded a pension lump sum settlement charge of $195 million in corporate unallocated expenses.

Tax benefit related to tax court decision

In the year ended December 29, 2012, we recognized a non-cash tax benefit of $217 million associated with a favorable tax court decision related to the classification of financial instruments.

Management operating cash flow (excluding certain items)

Additionally, management operating cash flow (excluding the items noted in the Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities Reconciliation table) is an important element in evaluating our performance. This is not a measure defined by GAAP. 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. Additionally, we consider certain other items (included in the Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities Reconciliation table) in evaluating management operating cash flow which we believe investors should consider in evaluating our management operating cash flow results.

2013 guidance

Our 2013 core tax rate guidance and our 2013 core constant currency EPS guidance exclude the commodity mark-to-market net impact included in corporate unallocated expenses, merger and integration charges in connection with our acquisition of WBD, restructuring and impairment charges and charges related to the Venezuela currency devaluation. Our 2013 organic revenue guidance excludes the impact of acquisitions, divestitures and other structural changes. In addition, our 2013 organic revenue guidance and our 2013 core constant currency EPS guidance exclude the impact of foreign exchange. We are not able to reconcile our full-year projected 2013 core tax rate guidance to our full-year projected 2013 reported tax rate or our 2013 core constant currency EPS guidance to our full-year projected 2013 reported EPS growth because we are unable to predict the 2013 impact of foreign exchange or the mark-to-market net impact on commodity hedges due to the unpredictability of future changes in foreign exchange rates and commodity prices. We are also unable to reconcile our full-year projected 2013 organic revenue guidance to our full-year projected 2013 reported net revenue growth because we are unable to predict the 2013 impact of foreign exchange due to the unpredictability of future changes in foreign exchange rates. Therefore, we are unable to provide a reconciliation of these measures.
