Basic company information

PepsiCo is an American food and beverage corporation. PepsiCo was formed in 1965 through the merger of the Pepsi-Cola Company and Frito-Lay, Inc. The date of the appearance of the Pepsi-Cola drink itself is considered 1898, when a pharmacist from North Carolina succeeded in creating a product that tastes similar to Coca-Cola. Caleb Bradham worked in a pharmacy while also selling his invention to soda vendors.

In 1902, Caleb Bradham closed his drugstore and started making Pepsi-Cola, the recipe for which was patented in 1903. Until 1965, the company faced difficulties connected with the First and Second World Wars, in particular the sugar shortage. Since then, however, PepsiCo has grown into one of the world's largest food and beverage manufacturers with a portfolio of more than 20 brands.

PepsiCo is a publicly traded company with more than $60 billion in annual revenues. The company has about 300,000 employees worldwide and is listed in the S&P 500 Index. PepsiCo has shares listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the NYSE ticker symbol: PEP. In October 2022, the corporation had a market capitalization of $238 billion.

Company products

PepsiCo is a global food and beverage company with a portfolio of iconic brands including Pepsi, Lay's, Quaker, Gatorade, Doritos and Tropicana. The corporation is headquartered in Perchance, New York and operates in more than 200 countries. PepsiCo products are sold in retail outlets worldwide. The company makes soft drinks, snacks, baby food, salty snacks, fermented dairy products, etc.

In recent years, PepsiCo has faced problems caused by public health concerns about its products, including sugary drinks and processed snacks. As a result, the company has been working to change the formulation of its products and expand its product line to include healthier options. These include the Pepsi Light diet drink, which eliminates sugar from its lineup.

✅ Benefits of investing in PepsiCo

  • Analysts believe that the corporation's business is largely insulated from inflation. This is evidenced by PepsiCo's strong financial performance in the third quarter of 2022, which exceeded experts' forecasts.
  • Over the past few years, many companies have faced challenges such as quarantine restrictions, supply chain disruptions, and rising inflation. However, all of these challenges have not prevented PepsiCo from increasing its stock earnings and organic sales each year.

❌ Disadvantages of Investing in PepsiCo

  • The company faces increasing competition from both large and small players in the food and beverage industry. In particular, smaller companies are more nimble and focus on healthy and organic products, a growing trend among consumers. The corporation's main competitor remains Coca-Cola.
  • PepsiCo's fall 2022 stock price is near historic highs, which could mean limited upside for investors. Analysts note that this asset is a value security. PepsiCo stock does not have a high rate of price appreciation. Usually investors include securities of this type in their investment portfolios as a protective asset, which is not always suitable for trading on speculative strategies.

Financial performance

PepsiCo ended the third quarter of 2022 with revenues of $21.97 billion, up from a projected $1.13 billion. On a percentage basis, that figure was up about 9% year over year. PepsiCo's stock posted earnings of $1.95 per security during the three-month period. This figure beat the consensus forecast by $0.11.

It's worth noting that PepsiCo had mixed results in the third quarter of 2022 regarding sales volumes. Production actually declined year over year. At the same time the volume of sales of beverages alone grew by approximately 3%. Most of the corporation's earnings were due to a reduction in income tax provisions. This allowed the company to overcome a slight decline in gross profit and operating margin.
