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.

Our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of June 13, 2015 and Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income for the 12 and 24 weeks ended June 13, 2015 and June 14, 2014 , and the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows and Equity for the 24 weeks ended June 13, 2015 and June 14, 2014 have not been audited. These 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 27, 2014 . In our opinion, these financial statements include all normal and recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation. The results for the 12 and 24 weeks are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year.

The results of our Venezuelan businesses have been reported under highly inflationary accounting since the beginning of 2010. See further unaudited information in "Our Business Risks" and "Our Liquidity and Capital Resources" in Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

While our results in the United States and Canada (North America) are reported on a 12-week basis, most of our international operations report on a monthly calendar basis for which the months of March, April and May are reflected in our second quarter results.

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 material handling facilities, are included in cost of sales. The costs of moving, storing and delivering finished product are included in selling, general and administrative expenses.

The following information is unaudited. 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. This report should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 27, 2014 .

Our Divisions

We are organized into six reportable segments (also referred to as divisions), as follows:

1)

Frito-Lay North America (FLNA);

2)

Quaker Foods North America (QFNA);

3)

Latin America Foods (LAF), which includes all of our food and snack businesses in Latin America;

4)

PepsiCo Americas Beverages (PAB), which includes all of our North American and Latin American beverage businesses;

5)

PepsiCo Europe (Europe), which includes all beverage, food and snack businesses in Europe and South Africa; and

6)

PepsiCo Asia, Middle East and Africa (AMEA), which includes all beverage, food and snack businesses in Asia, Middle East and Africa, excluding South Africa.

Changes to Organizational Structure

The division amounts and discussions included in this Form 10-Q reflect the reportable segments that existed through the end of our second quarter of 2015. Effective beginning with our third quarter of 2015, we realigned certain of our reportable segments to be consistent with certain changes to our organizational structure and how the Chief Executive Officer will monitor the performance of these segments. As a result, all of our beverage, food and snack businesses in Latin America will be reported together as Latin America and our North American beverage business will be reported separately as North America Beverages. Prior to this change, the PepsiCo Americas Beverages segment included all of our North American and Latin American beverage businesses. In addition, our PepsiCo Europe reportable segment will now also include our businesses in the Sub-Saharan Africa markets that were formerly part of PepsiCo Asia, Middle East and Africa and will be renamed Europe Sub-Saharan Africa (ESSA). PepsiCo Asia, Middle East and Africa will be renamed Asia, Middle East and North Africa (AMENA). These changes do not impact our Frito-Lay North America or Quaker Foods North America reportable segments. Our historical segment reporting will be retrospectively revised during the remainder of 2015 to reflect the new organizational structure. For additional information, see Part II - Other Information.

Note 2 - Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In April 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued new accounting guidance intended to simplify the presentation of debt issuance costs. The guidance requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented on the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with the presentation for debt discounts. The guidance is effective as of the beginning of our 2016 fiscal year and must be applied on a retrospective basis with early adoption permitted. We early adopted the provisions of this guidance as of the beginning of our second quarter of 2015 and it did not have a material impact on our financial statements.

In June 2014, the FASB issued new accounting guidance for share-based payments when the terms of an award provide that a performance target could be achieved after the requisite service period. The guidance requires that a performance target that could be achieved after the requisite service period is treated as a performance condition that affects the vesting of the award rather than factored into the grant date fair value. The guidance is effective as of the beginning of our 2016 fiscal year and can be applied prospectively to all share-based payments granted or modified on or after the effective date with early adoption permissible. This guidance is not expected to have any impact on our financial statements and we have not early adopted this standard.

In May 2014, the FASB issued new accounting guidance on revenue recognition, which provides for a single five-step model to be applied to all revenue contracts with customers. The new standard also requires additional financial statement disclosures that will enable users to understand the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows relating to customer contracts. Companies have an option to use either a retrospective approach or cumulative effect adjustment approach to implement the standard. There is no option for early adoption. In April 2015, the FASB proposed a one-year deferral of the effective date of the new revenue standard. Under the proposal, the new guidance will be effective as of the beginning of our 2018 fiscal year. We are currently evaluating the impact of the new guidance on our financial statements and have not yet selected a transition approach to implement the standard.

Note 3 - Restructuring, Impairment and Integration Charges

2014 Multi-Year Productivity Plan

The multi-year productivity plan we publicly announced on February 13, 2014 (2014 Productivity Plan) includes the next generation of productivity initiatives that we believe will strengthen our food, snack and beverage businesses by: accelerating our investment in manufacturing automation; further optimizing our global manufacturing footprint, including closing certain manufacturing facilities; re-engineering our go-to-market systems in developed markets; expanding shared services; and implementing simplified organization structures to drive efficiency. The 2014 Productivity Plan is in addition to the productivity plan we began implementing in 2012 and is expected to continue the benefits of that plan.

In the 12 weeks ended June 13, 2015 and June 14, 2014 , we incurred restructuring charges of $ 21 million ($ 16 million after-tax or $0.01 per share) and $77 million ( $55 million after-tax or $0.04 per share), respectively, in conjunction with our 2014 Productivity Plan. In the 24 weeks ended June 13, 2015 and June 14, 2014 , we incurred restructuring charges of $51 million ($ 39 million after-tax or $0.03 per share) and $173 million ( $128 million after-tax or $0.08 per share), respectively, in conjunction with our 2014 Productivity Plan. All of these net charges were recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses and primarily relate to severance and other employee-related costs, asset impairments (all non-cash) and contract termination costs. The majority of the restructuring accrual at June 13, 2015 is expected to be paid by the end of 2015 .

2012 Multi-Year Productivity Plan

The multi-year productivity plan we publicly announced on February 9, 2012 (2012 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. The 2012 Productivity Plan continues

to enhance PepsiCo's cost-competitiveness and provide a source of funding for future brand-building and innovation initiatives.

In the 12 weeks ended June 13, 2015 and June 14, 2014 , we incurred restructuring charges of $ 4 million ($ 3 million after-tax with a nominal amount per share ) and $15 million ( $14 million after-tax or $0.01 per share), respectively, in conjunction with our 2012 Productivity Plan. In the 24 weeks ended June 13, 2015 and June 14, 2014 , we incurred restructuring charges of $10 million ( $9 million after-tax or $0.01 per share) and $17 million ( $17 million after-tax or $0.01 per share), respectively, in conjunction with our 2012 Productivity Plan. All of these net charges were recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses and primarily relate to severance and other employee-related costs and contract termination costs.

Table of Contents



Note 8 - Debt Obligations and Commitments

In the first quarter of 2015, $2.1 billion of senior notes matured and were paid.

In the second quarter of 2015 , we issued:

$250 million of floating rate notes maturing in April 2018 ;

$500 million of 1.250% senior notes maturing in April 2018 ;

$750 million of 1.850% senior notes maturing in April 2020 ; and

$1 billion of 2.750% senior notes maturing in April 2025 .

The net proceeds from the issuances of the above notes were used for general corporate purposes, including the repayment of commercial paper.

In the second quarter of 2015 , we entered into a new five-year unsecured revolving credit agreement (Five-Year Credit Agreement) which expires on June 8, 2020. The Five-Year Credit Agreement enables us and our borrowing subsidiaries to borrow up to $3.7225 billion , subject to customary terms and conditions. We may request that commitments under this agreement be increased up to $4.5 billion . Additionally, we may, once a year, request renewal of the agreement for an additional one-year period.

Also in the second quarter of 2015 , we entered into a new 364-day unsecured revolving credit agreement (364-Day Credit Agreement) which expires on June 6, 2016. The 364-Day Credit Agreement enables us and our borrowing subsidiaries to borrow up to $3.7225 billion , subject to customary terms and conditions. We may request that commitments under this agreement be increased up to $4.5 billion . 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 would mature no later than the anniversary of the then effective termination date. The Five-Year Credit Agreement and the 364-Day Credit Agreement together replaced our  $3.7725 billion five-year credit agreement dated as of June 9, 2014 and our $3.7725 billion 364-day credit agreement dated as of June 9, 2014. Funds borrowed under the Five-Year Credit Agreement and the 364-Day Credit Agreement may be used for general corporate purposes. Subject to certain conditions, we may borrow, prepay and reborrow amounts under these agreements. As of June 13, 2015, there were no outstanding borrowings under the Five-Year Credit Agreement or the 364-Day Credit Agreement.

As of June 13, 2015 , we had $2.9 billion of commercial paper outstanding.

Note 10 - Financial Instruments

Derivatives

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.

In the normal course of business, we manage commodity price, foreign exchange and interest rate risks through a variety of strategies, including productivity initiatives, global purchasing programs and hedging. Ongoing productivity initiatives involve the identification and effective implementation of meaningful cost-saving opportunities or efficiencies, including the use of derivatives. Our global purchasing programs include fixed-price purchase orders and pricing agreements.


19

Table of Contents



Our hedging strategies include the use of derivatives. Certain derivatives are designated as either cash flow or fair value hedges and qualify for hedge accounting treatment, while others do not qualify and are marked to market through earnings. Cash flows from derivatives used to manage commodity price, foreign exchange or interest rate risks are classified as operating activities in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. We classify both the earnings and cash flow impact from these derivatives consistent with the underlying hedged item.

For cash flow hedges, the effective portion of changes in fair value is deferred in accumulated other comprehensive loss within common shareholders' equity until the underlying hedged item is recognized in net income. For fair value hedges, changes in fair value are recognized immediately in earnings, consistent with the underlying hedged item. Hedging transactions are limited to an underlying exposure. As a result, any change in the value of our derivative instruments would be substantially offset by an opposite change in the value of the underlying hedged items. We do not use derivative instruments for trading or speculative purposes. We perform assessments of our counterparty credit risk regularly, including reviewing netting agreements, if any, and a review of credit ratings, credit default swap rates and potential nonperformance of the counterparty. Based on our most recent assessment of our counterparty credit risk, we consider this risk to be low. In addition, we enter into derivative contracts with a variety of financial institutions that we believe are creditworthy in order to reduce our concentration of credit risk.

Commodity Prices

We are subject to commodity price risk because our ability to recover increased costs through higher pricing may be limited in the competitive environment in which we operate. This risk is managed through the use of fixed-price contracts and purchase orders, pricing agreements and derivative instruments, which include swaps and futures. In addition, risk to our supply of certain raw materials is mitigated through purchases from multiple geographies and suppliers. We use derivatives, with terms of no more than three years, to economically hedge price fluctuations related to a portion of our anticipated commodity purchases, primarily for agricultural products, metals and energy. Ineffectiveness for derivatives that qualify for hedge accounting treatment was not material for all periods presented. Derivatives used to hedge commodity price risk 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.

Our open commodity derivative contracts had a notional value of  $1.0 billion as of June 13, 2015 and $1.2 billion as of December 27, 2014 .

Foreign Exchange

We are exposed to foreign exchange risk from foreign currency purchases and foreign currency assets and liabilities created in the normal course of business. We manage this risk through sourcing purchases from local suppliers, negotiating contracts in local currencies with foreign suppliers and through the use of derivatives, primarily forward contracts with terms of no more than two years . Exchange rate gains or losses related to foreign currency transactions are recognized as transaction gains or losses in our income statement as incurred.

Our foreign currency derivatives had a total notional value of $2.0 billion as of June 13, 2015 and $2.7 billion as of December 27, 2014 . Ineffectiveness for those derivatives that qualify for hedge accounting treatment was not material for all periods presented. For foreign currency derivatives that do not qualify for

hedge accounting treatment, all losses and gains were offset by changes in the underlying hedged items, resulting in no material net impact on earnings.

Interest Rates

We centrally manage our debt and investment portfolios considering investment opportunities and risks, tax consequences and overall financing strategies. We use various interest rate derivative instruments including, but not limited to, interest rate swaps, cross-currency interest rate swaps, Treasury locks and swap locks to manage our overall interest expense and foreign exchange risk. These instruments effectively change the interest rate and currency of specific debt issuances. Certain of our fixed rate indebtedness has been swapped to floating rates. The notional amount, interest payment and maturity date of the interest rate and cross-currency interest rate swaps match the principal, interest payment and maturity date of the related debt. Our Treasury locks and swap locks are entered into to protect against unfavorable interest rate changes relating to forecasted debt transactions.

The notional values of the interest rate derivative instruments outstanding as of June 13, 2015 and December 27, 2014 were $7.8 billion and $9.3 billion , respectively. Ineffectiveness for those derivatives that qualify for cash flow hedge accounting treatment was not material for all periods presented.

As of June 13, 2015 , approximately 26% of total debt, after the impact of the related interest rate derivative instruments, was exposed to variable rates, compared to approximately 25% as of December 27, 2014 .

Available-for-Sale Securities

Investments in debt and marketable equity securities, other than investments accounted for under the equity method, are classified as available-for-sale. All highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less are classified as cash equivalents. Our investments in available-for-sale securities are reported at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses related to changes in the fair value of available-for-sale securities are recognized in accumulated other comprehensive loss within common shareholders' equity. Unrealized gains and losses on our investments in debt securities as of June 13, 2015 and December 27, 2014 were not material. The pre-tax unrealized gains on our investments in marketable equity securities were $120 million and $111 million as of June 13, 2015 and December 27, 2014 , respectively.

Changes in the fair value of available-for-sale securities impact net income only when such securities are sold or an other-than-temporary impairment is recognized. We regularly review our investment portfolio to determine if any security is other-than-temporarily impaired. In making this judgment, we evaluate, among other things, the duration and extent to which the fair value of a security is less than its cost; the financial condition of the issuer and any changes thereto; and our intent to sell, or whether we will more likely than not be required to sell, the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis. Our assessment of whether a security is other-than-temporarily impaired could change in the future due to new developments or changes in assumptions related to any particular security. We recorded no other-than-temporary impairment charges for the 12 and 24 weeks ended June 13, 2015 and June 14, 2014 , respectively.

Tingyi-Asahi Beverages Holding Co. Ltd. Call Option

In connection with our transaction with Tingyi (Cayman Islands) Holding Corp. in the second quarter of 2012, we received a call option to increase our holding in Tingyi-Asahi Beverages Holding Co. Ltd. to 20% that expires in the fourth quarter of 2015. If the Company decides not to exercise this call option, we would record a charge to write off the recorded value of the option. Such a charge would be reflected in "Items Affecting Comparability" in the period recognized.

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. Also refer to Note 1 of our condensed consolidated financial statements. 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 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 27, 2014 .

Sales Incentives and Advertising and Marketing Costs

We offer sales incentives and discounts through various programs to customers and consumers. These 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 for the expected payout. These accruals are based on contract terms and our historical experience with similar programs and require management judgment with respect to estimating customer 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. Certain advertising and marketing costs are also based on annual targets.

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 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 opportunities available to us in the various jurisdictions in which we operate. 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 Quarterly Report on 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). Statements that constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Reform Act are generally identified through the inclusion of words such as "aim," "anticipate," "believe," "drive," "estimate," "expect," "expressed confidence," "forecast," "future," "goals," "guidance," "intend," "may," "objectives," "outlook," "plan," "position," "potential," "project," "seek," "should," "strategy," "target," "will" or similar statements or variations of such words and other similar expressions. All statements addressing our future operating performance, and statements addressing events and developments that we expect or anticipate will occur in the future, are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Reform Act. These forward-looking statements are based on currently available information, operating plans and projections about future events and trends. They inherently involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those predicted in any such forward-looking statement. Such risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to: changes in demand for PepsiCo's products, as a result of changes in consumer preferences or otherwise; changes in the legal and regulatory environment; imposition of new taxes, disagreements with tax authorities or additional tax liabilities; PepsiCo's ability to compete effectively; PepsiCo's ability to grow its business in developing and emerging markets or unstable political conditions, civil unrest or other developments and risks in the markets where PepsiCo's products are made, manufactured, distributed or sold; unfavorable economic conditions in the countries in which PepsiCo operates; increased costs, disruption of supply or shortages of raw materials and other supplies; failure to realize anticipated benefits from PepsiCo's productivity initiatives or global operating model; disruption of PepsiCo's supply chain; product contamination or tampering or issues or concerns with respect to product quality, safety and integrity; damage to PepsiCo's reputation or brand image; failure to successfully complete or integrate acquisitions and joint ventures into PepsiCo's existing operations or to complete or manage divestitures or refranchisings; PepsiCo's ability to hire or retain key employees or a highly skilled and diverse workforce; loss of any key customer or changes to the retail landscape; any downgrade or potential downgrade of PepsiCo's credit ratings; the ability to protect information systems against or effectively respond to a cybersecurity incident or other disruption; PepsiCo's ability to implement shared services or utilize information technology systems and networks effectively; fluctuations or other changes in exchange rates, including changes in currency exchange mechanisms or additional governmental actions in Venezuela; climate change, or legal, regulatory or market measures to address climate change; failure to successfully negotiate collective bargaining agreements or strikes or work stoppages; any infringement of or challenge to PepsiCo's intellectual property rights; potential liabilities and costs from litigation or legal proceedings; and other factors that may adversely affect the price of PepsiCo's common stock and financial performance including those described in "Risk Factors" in Item 1A. and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Our Business Risks" in Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 27, 2014 and in Item 2. "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Our Business Risks" of this Quarterly Report on 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.

In the 24 weeks ended June 13, 2015 , our operations outside of North America reflect the months of January through May . Our operations outside of the U.S. generated 43% of our net revenue, with Mexico, Canada, Russia, the United Kingdom, Venezuela and Brazil comprising approximately 21% of our net revenue. As a result, we are exposed to foreign exchange risks in many of the international markets in which we operate. In addition, unstable economic, political and social conditions and civil unrest in certain markets in which our products are sold, including in Russia, Ukraine, Greece and the Middle East, and currency fluctuations


26

Table of Contents



in certain of these international markets and in Venezuela (discussed below), continue to result in challenging operating environments. In the 12 and 24 weeks ended June 13, 2015 , unfavorable foreign exchange negatively impacted net revenue performance by 10 and 9 percentage points, respectively, primarily due to the Russian ruble, Venezuelan bolivar, euro, Mexican peso and the Brazilian real. Currency declines against the U.S. dollar which are not offset could adversely impact our future results.

The results of our Venezuelan snack and beverage businesses, which are included in our condensed consolidated financial statements for all periods presented, have been reported under highly inflationary accounting since the beginning of our 2010 fiscal year, at which time the functional currency of our Venezuelan entities was changed from the bolivar to the U.S. dollar.

As of June 13, 2015, there was a three-tiered exchange rate mechanism in Venezuela for exchanging bolivars into U.S. dollars:

The government-operated National Center of Foreign Commerce (CENCOEX), which has a fixed exchange rate of 6.3 bolivars per U.S. dollar (fixed exchange rate) mainly intended for the import of essential goods and services by designated industry sectors.

The auction-based Supplementary Foreign Currency Administration System (SICAD), which is intended for certain transactions, including foreign investments.

An open market Marginal Foreign Exchange System (SIMADI), established in February 2015, which is available to companies and individuals to exchange foreign currency based on supply and demand.

At the end of each period, we remeasure the net monetary assets of our Venezuelan entities from the bolivar to the U.S. dollar at the rate we believe is legally available to us, including for the payment of dividends. Based on our analysis, we continue to believe that, except as noted below, the SICAD exchange rate is the most appropriate rate to remeasure our net monetary assets. We remeasure certain other net monetary assets at the fixed exchange rate, since we believe that requests for remittance of dividends submitted to CENCOEX in certain prior years at the fixed exchange rate and payables for imports of essential goods approved by CENCOEX continue to qualify for settlement at the fixed exchange rate. As of the end of the second quarter of 2015, the SICAD exchange rate was 12.0 bolivars per U.S. dollar. Subsequent to the end of the second quarter of 2015, a SICAD auction was held at which bolivars were exchanged for U.S. dollars at the rate of 12.8 bolivars per U.S. dollar. This change in the SICAD exchange rate will not have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.

In the 24 weeks ended June 13, 2015, our results of operations in Venezuela, which reflect the months of January through May, generated 2% of our net revenue and 2% of our operating profit. As of June 13, 2015 , our operations in Venezuela comprised 7% of our cash and cash equivalents balance. Our bolivar-denominated net monetary assets in Venezuela, which primarily include cash and cash equivalents, approximated $ 335 million at June 13, 2015 . At June 13, 2015 , we had pending requests with the Venezuelan government for remittance of dividends of approximately $310 million at the fixed exchange rate. These requests pertain to the years from 2006 to 2012. We are unable to predict the likelihood of Venezuelan government approvals of these requests or any requests that we may file in the future or, if any such requests are approved, the estimated time for remittance. We continue to evaluate available options to obtain U.S. dollars to meet our operational needs in Venezuela. Our non-monetary assets in Venezuela, which primarily include an equity investment in our bottler, intangible assets, inventory and property, plant and equipment, approximated $720 million at June 13, 2015 .

We believe that significant uncertainty exists regarding the exchange mechanisms in Venezuela, including the nature of transactions that are eligible to flow through CENCOEX, SICAD or SIMADI, or any other new exchange mechanism that may emerge, how any such mechanisms will operate in the future, as well as the availability of U.S. dollars under each mechanism. We continue to monitor developments closely and may


27

Table of Contents



determine in the future that rates other than the SICAD exchange rate or the fixed exchange rate, as applicable, are appropriate for remeasurement of the net monetary assets of our Venezuelan entities. If, at the end of the second quarter of 2015, we had used the SICAD exchange rate, which was 12.0 bolivars per U.S. dollar as of that date, to remeasure the net monetary assets that are currently recorded at the fixed exchange rate, we would have incurred a net charge of approximately $160 million . If, at the end of the second quarter of 2015, we had remeasured all net monetary assets of our Venezuelan businesses at the SIMADI exchange rate, which was approximately 199 bolivars per U.S. dollar as of that date, we would have incurred a net charge of approximately $325 million . If we were to conclude that the SIMADI exchange rate is the appropriate rate for remeasurement of our Venezuelan entities, it would also lead to an impairment of our non-monetary assets, which were approximately $720 million at June 13, 2015. Any such remeasurement and potential impairment charges, if recognized, would be reflected in "Items Affecting Comparability." In addition, if we were to conclude that the SIMADI exchange rate is the appropriate rate for remeasurement of our Venezuelan entities, our results of operations in Venezuela for the remainder of 2015 would expect to generate approximately 0% of both our net revenue and operating profit. Any further devaluation of the bolivar, change in the currency exchange mechanisms, limitation in the volume of U.S. dollars available for conversion, additional governmental actions or fluctuation of the auction-based SICAD exchange rate could adversely affect our financial position, including a potential impairment of non-monetary assets, results of operations, both for any period in which we determine to remeasure using another rate and on a going forward basis following any such remeasurement, and our ability to make effective business decisions with respect to our Venezuelan operations or to continue to operate in Venezuela in the same manner as we have historically.

During 2014 , Russia announced economic sanctions against the United States and other nations that include a ban on imports of certain ingredients and finished goods from specific countries. The sanctions did not have and are not expected to have a material impact on the results of our operations in Russia or our consolidated results or financial position, and we will continue to monitor the economic, operating and political environment in Russia closely. In each of the 24 weeks ended June 13, 2015 and June 14, 2014 , 4% and 7% , respectively, of our total net revenue was generated by our operations in Russia. As of June 13, 2015 , our long-lived assets in Russia were $5.0 billion .

See Note 10 to our condensed consolidated financial statements for a discussion of our financial instruments, including their fair values as of June 13, 2015 and June 14, 2014 . Cautionary statements included above and in "Item 1A. Risk Factors" and in "Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Our Business Risks," included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 27, 2014 , should be considered when evaluating our trends and future results.

Mark-to-Market Net Impact

We centrally manage commodity derivatives on behalf of our divisions. These commodity derivatives include agricultural products, energy 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.

In the 12 weeks ended June 13, 2015 , we recognized $39 million ( $27 million after-tax or $0.02 per share) of mark-to-market net gains on commodity hedges in corporate unallocated expenses, with a $2 million net gain recognized in cost of sales and a $37 million net gain recognized in selling, general and administrative expenses. In the 24 weeks ended June 13, 2015 , we recognized $38 million ( $26 million after-tax or $0.02 per share) of mark-to-market net gains on commodity hedges in corporate unallocated expenses, with a $16 million net loss recognized in cost of sales and a $54 million net gain recognized in selling, general and administrative expenses.

In the 12 weeks ended June 14, 2014, we recognized $31 million ($20 million after-tax or $0.01 per share) of mark-to-market net gains on commodity hedges in corporate unallocated expenses, with a $21 million net gain recognized in cost of sales and a $10 million net gain recognized in selling, general and administrative expenses. In the 24 weeks ended June 14, 2014, we recognized $65 million ($41 million after-tax or $0.03 per share) of mark-to-market net gains on commodity hedges in corporate unallocated expenses, with a $67 million net gain recognized in cost of sales and a $2 million net loss recognized in selling, general and administrative expenses.

Non-GAAP Measures

Certain measures contained in this Form 10-Q are financial measures that are adjusted for items affecting comparability (see "Items Affecting Comparability" for a detailed list and description of each of these items), as well as, in certain instances, adjusted for foreign exchange. These measures are not in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). Items adjusted for currency assume 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 investors should consider these non-GAAP measures in evaluating our results as they are indicative of our ongoing performance and reflect how management evaluates our operational results and trends. These measures are not, and should not be viewed as, a substitute for U.S. GAAP reporting measures. See also "Organic Revenue Growth" and "Free Cash Flow."

Volume

Since our divisions each use different measures of physical unit volume (i.e., kilos, gallons, pounds and case sales), a common servings metric is necessary to reflect our consolidated physical unit volume. Our divisions' physical volume measures are converted into servings based on U.S. Food and Drug Administration guidelines for single-serving sizes of our products. For each of the 12 and 24 weeks ended June 13, 2015 , total servings increased slightly. For each of the 12 and 24 weeks ended June 14, 2014 , total servings increased 1% .

We discuss volume for our beverage businesses on a bottler case sales (BCS) basis in which all beverage volume is converted to an 8-ounce-case metric. Most of our beverage volume is sold by our Company-owned and franchise-owned bottlers, and that portion is based on our bottlers' sales to retailers and independent distributors. The remainder of our volume is based on our direct shipments to retailers and independent distributors. We report most of our international beverage volume on a monthly basis. Our second quarter includes beverage volume outside of North America for the months of March, April and May . Concentrate shipments and equivalents (CSE) represent our physical beverage volume shipments to independent bottlers, retailers and independent distributors, and is the measure upon which our revenue is based.

On a reported basis, total operating profit was even with the prior year and operating margin increased 1.1 percentage points. Operating profit performance was primarily driven by effective net pricing and planned cost reductions across a number of expense categories, offset by certain operating cost increases, unfavorable foreign exchange and higher commodity costs.

performance by 7 percentage points, primarily attributable to inflation in the LAF and Europe segments, partially offset by deflation in the FLNA, PAB and AMEA segments. Additionally, less-favorable settlements of promotional spending accruals in the current year, primarily in the PAB segment, and the impact of refranchising a portion of our bottling operations in the AMEA segment each negatively impacted operating profit performance by 1 percentage point. Other corporate unallocated expenses decreased 17%, primarily reflecting decreased pension expense. Items affecting comparability (see "Items Affecting Comparability") positively contributed 2.5 percentage points to total operating profit performance and increased total operating margin by 0.4 percentage points.

24 Weeks

On a reported basis, total operating profit was even with the prior year and operating margin increased 0.8 percentage points. Operating profit performance was primarily driven by certain operating cost increases, unfavorable foreign exchange, higher commodity costs, as well as higher advertising and marketing expenses, offset by effective net pricing and planned cost reductions across a number of expense categories. Commodity inflation negatively impacted operating profit performance by 6 percentage points, primarily attributable to inflation in the LAF and Europe segments, partially offset by deflation in the FLNA, PAB and AMEA segments. An impairment charge in the QFNA segment associated with our MQD joint venture negatively impacted operating profit performance by 1 percentage point. The net impact of refranchising a portion of our bottling operations in the AMEA segment and the lapping of a gain associated with the sale of agricultural assets in the Europe segment in the prior year had a slight negative impact to operating profit performance. Other corporate unallocated expenses decreased 14%, primarily reflecting decreased pension expense. Items affecting comparability (see "Items Affecting Comparability") positively contributed 2 percentage points to total operating profit performance and increased total operating margin by 0.3 percentage points.

12 Weeks

Net interest expense increased $12 million , primarily reflecting higher interest rates on our debt and lower gains on the market value of investments used to economically hedge a portion of our deferred compensation costs, partially offset by higher interest income due to higher investment interest rates.

The reported tax rate decreased 0.4 percentage points, primarily due to favorable income mix partially offset by lapping the favorable resolution of certain tax matters in the prior year quarter.

Net income attributable to PepsiCo was even with the prior year and net income attributable to PepsiCo per common share increased 3% . Items affecting comparability (see "Items Affecting Comparability") positively contributed 3 percentage points to both net income attributable to PepsiCo and net income attributable to PepsiCo per common share.

24 Weeks

Net interest expense increased $17 million , primarily reflecting higher interest rates on our debt and lower gains on the market value of investments used to economically hedge a portion of our deferred compensation costs, partially offset by higher interest income due to higher investment interest rates.

The reported tax rate decreased 0.6 percentage points primarily due to a reduction of state income taxes and income mix shift.

Net income attributable to PepsiCo was even with the prior year and net income attributable to PepsiCo per common share increased 3% . Items affecting comparability (see "Items Affecting Comparability") positively contributed 2.5 percentage points to net income attributable to PepsiCo and nearly 3 percentage points to net income attributable to PepsiCo per common share.

Results of Operations – Division Review

The results and discussions below are based on how our Chief Executive Officer monitored the performance of our divisions during the periods presented. See "Items Affecting Comparability" for a discussion of items to consider when evaluating our results and related information regarding non-GAAP measures.

Furthermore, 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," except as otherwise noted, 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.

Organic Revenue Growth

Organic revenue growth is a significant measure we use to monitor net revenue performance. However, it is not a measure provided by U.S. GAAP. Therefore, this measure is not, and should not be viewed as, a substitute for U.S. GAAP net revenue growth. In order to compute our organic revenue growth results, we exclude the impact of acquisitions and divestitures and foreign exchange translation from reported net revenue growth.

12 Weeks

Net revenue grew 2% and volume was even with the prior year. The net revenue growth was primarily driven by effective net pricing. The volume performance reflects mid-single-digit growth in trademark Tostitos and Fritos and low-single-digit growth in variety packs, offset by a low-single-digit decline in trademark Lay's and a high-single-digit decline in trademark Ruffles.

Operating profit grew 7%, primarily reflecting the net revenue growth and planned cost reductions across a number of expense categories, as well as lower commodity costs, which contributed 5 percentage points to operating profit growth, primarily cooking oil and packaging. These impacts were partially offset by certain operating cost increases, including strategic initiatives, as well as higher advertising and marketing expenses and a nominal net impact of actuarial adjustments.

24 Weeks

Net revenue grew 2.5% and volume grew 2%. Net revenue growth was primarily driven by effective net pricing and volume growth. The volume growth reflects high-single-digit growth in variety packs, mid-single-growth in trademark Tostitos, double-digit growth in trademark Smartfood and low-single-digit growth in trademark Doritos. These increases were partially offset by a mid-single-digit decline in trademark Ruffles.

12 Weeks

Net revenue declined 3% and volume declined 1%. The net revenue decline reflects unfavorable net pricing, unfavorable foreign exchange, which negatively impacted net revenue performance by 1 percentage point, and a slight negative impact relating to the divestiture of a cereal business in the prior year. The volume decline was driven by a double-digit decline in MQD products, low-single-digit declines in bars and Aunt Jemima syrup and mix, and a mid-single-digit decline in grits, partially offset by high-single-digit growth in ready-to-eat cereals.

Operating profit decreased 5%, reflecting certain operating cost increases, the net revenue performance and higher advertising and marketing expenses, as well as lapping favorable settlements of promotional spending accruals in the prior year, which negatively impacted operating profit performance by 3 percentage points. These impacts were partially offset by planned cost reductions across a number of expense categories and favorable product mix. In addition, the divestiture of a cereal business in the prior year negatively impacted operating profit performance by 1 percentage point.

24 Weeks

Net revenue decreased 1% and volume grew 0.5%. The net revenue decline reflects unfavorable net pricing, unfavorable foreign exchange, which negatively impacted net revenue performance by 1 percentage point, and a slight negative impact relating to the divestiture of a cereal business in the prior year. These impacts were partially offset by the volume growth. The volume growth primarily reflects high-single-digit growth in ready-to-eat cereals and low-single-digit growth in Oatmeal, partially offset by a double-digit decline in MQD products and a mid-single-digit decline in grits.

Operating profit decreased 23%, primarily reflecting an impairment charge associated with our MQD joint venture, which negatively impacted operating profit performance by 22 percentage points. Operating profit performance was also negatively impacted by certain operating cost increases, higher advertising and marketing expenses and the unfavorable net pricing. These impacts were partially offset by planned cost reductions across a number of expense categories, favorable product mix and the volume growth. In addition, the divestiture of a cereal business in the prior year negatively impacted operating profit performance by 1 percentage point.

Net revenue declined 6%, reflecting unfavorable foreign exchange, which negatively impacted net revenue performance by 29 percentage points, including 14 percentage points from Venezuela. This decline was partially offset by effective net pricing, including 16 percentage points of inflation-based pricing from Venezuela, and volume growth.

Volume grew 3%, primarily reflecting a mid-single-digit increase in Mexico, partially offset by a low-single-digit decline in Brazil.

Operating profit declined 12%, reflecting certain operating cost increases. Additionally, higher commodity costs, led by packaging inflation from Venezuela, negatively impacted operating profit performance by 61 percentage points. These impacts were offset by the effective net pricing, planned cost reductions across a number of expense categories and the volume growth. In addition, unfavorable foreign exchange negatively impacted operating profit performance by 27 percentage points. The results of our Venezuela business negatively impacted operating profit performance by 8 percentage points. For additional information on Venezuela, see "Our Business Risks."

Net revenue grew 1%, primarily reflecting effective net pricing. Unfavorable foreign exchange reduced net revenue growth by 2 percentage points.

Volume increased nearly 1%, reflecting a 2% increase in Latin America and even volume in North America. Latin America increased 2% primarily reflecting a double-digit increase in Chile, a high-single-digit increase in Argentina and a low-single-digit increase in Mexico, partially offset by a double-digit decline in Brazil. North America volume was driven by a 4% increase in non-carbonated beverages, offset by a 3% decline in CSDs. The non-carbonated beverage volume growth primarily reflected a high-single-digit increase in our water portfolio and a mid-single-digit increase in Gatorade sports drinks.

Reported operating profit increased 4%. Excluding the item affecting comparability in the above table (see "Items Affecting Comparability"), operating profit increased 1%. This increase primarily reflects the effective net pricing and planned cost reductions across a number of expense categories, as well as lower commodity costs and certain insurance adjustments, which contributed 5 percentage points and 2 percentage points to reported operating profit growth, respectively. These impacts were partially offset by certain operating cost increases, as well as unfavorable settlements of promotional spending accruals compared to the prior year, which reduced reported operating profit growth by 3 percentage points. Unfavorable foreign exchange reduced operating profit growth by 9 percentage points, including a 7-percentage-point impact from Venezuela. The results of our Venezuelan businesses reduced reported operating profit growth by 3 percentage points. For additional information on Venezuela, see "Our Business Risks."

Net revenue grew nearly 1%, primarily reflecting effective net pricing. Unfavorable foreign exchange reduced net revenue growth by 2 percentage points.

Volume was even with the prior year and included a slight positive contribution from certain of our bottler's brands related to our joint venture in Chile. Latin America, excluding the impact from certain of our bottler's brands in Chile, increased 2% primarily reflecting a mid-single-digit increase in Mexico and a double-digit increase in Chile, partially offset by a double-digit decline in Brazil.

carbonated beverage volume growth primarily reflected a high-single-digit increase in our water portfolio and a mid-single-digit increase in Gatorade sports drinks.

Reported operating profit increased 6%. Excluding the item affecting comparability in the above table (see "Items Affecting Comparability"), operating profit decreased 2%. This decrease primarily reflects certain operating cost increases and higher advertising and marketing expenses, as well as the lapping of favorable settlements of promotional spending accruals in the prior year, which reduced reported operating profit growth by 2 percentage points. These impacts were partially offset by the effective net pricing and planned cost reductions across a number of expense categories, as well as lower commodity costs, which contributed 5 percentage points to reported operating profit growth. Unfavorable foreign exchange negatively impacted operating profit performance by 10 percentage points, including an 8-percentage-point impact from Venezuela.

Net revenue decreased 24%, primarily reflecting unfavorable foreign exchange, which negatively impacted net revenue performance by 24 percentage points, including 12 percentage points from Russia, as well as net volume declines. These impacts were partially offset by effective net pricing.

Snacks volume grew slightly, primarily reflecting high-single-digit growth in Turkey, mid-single-digit growth in South Africa and low-single-digit growth in the United Kingdom and the Netherlands, largely offset by a mid-single-digit decline in Russia.

Beverage volume declined 6%, primarily reflecting a double-digit decline in Russia, partially offset by mid-single-digit growth in Turkey and high-single-digit growth in France and Poland. Additionally, Germany experienced a mid-single-digit decline and the United Kingdom experienced a low-single-digit decline.

Operating profit decreased 26%, reflecting higher commodity costs, which negatively impacted operating profit performance by 22 percentage points and primarily reflected foreign exchange transactional losses, as well as certain operating cost increases and the net volume declines.

Our Liquidity and Capital Resources

We believe that our cash generating capability and financial condition, together with our revolving credit facilities 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 us to fund cash outflows, such as our anticipated share repurchases, dividend payments and scheduled debt maturities, include cash from operations and proceeds obtained from issuances of commercial paper and long-term debt. However, there can be no assurance that volatility in the global capital and credit markets will not impair our ability to access these markets on terms commercially acceptable to us, or at all. See "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 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 27, 2014 .

As of June 13, 2015 , we had cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments of $8.7 billion outside the U.S. To the extent foreign earnings are repatriated, such amounts would be subject to income tax liabilities, both in the U.S. and in various applicable foreign jurisdictions. In addition, currency restrictions enacted by the government in Venezuela have impacted our ability to pay dividends outside of the country from our snack and beverage operations in Venezuela. As of June 13, 2015 , our operations in Venezuela comprised 7% of our cash and cash equivalents balance. For additional information on our operations in Venezuela, see "Our Business Risks."

Operating Activities

During the 24 weeks in 2015 , net cash provided by operating activities was $2.8 billion , compared to $2.7 billion in the prior year period. The operating cash flow performance primarily reflects favorable working capital comparisons to the prior year.

Also see "Free Cash Flow" below for certain other items impacting net cash provided by operating activities.

Investing Activities

During the 24 weeks in 2015 , net cash used for investing activities was $158 million, primarily reflecting net capital spending of $806 million, partially offset by net maturities of debt securities of $594 million. See Note 10 to our condensed consolidated financial statements for further discussion of our investments in debt securities.

We expect 2015 net capital spending to be approximately $3.0 billion , within our long-term capital spending target of less than or equal to 5% of net revenue.

Financing Activities

During the 24 weeks in 2015 , net cash used for financing activities was $1.1 billion , primarily reflecting the return of operating cash flow to our shareholders through dividend payments and share repurchases of $4.1 billion , partially offset by net proceeds from short-term borrowings of $2.2 billion , net proceeds from long-term debt borrowings of $0.4 billion and proceeds from exercises of stock options of $0.3 billion.

We annually review our capital structure with our Board of Directors, including our dividend policy and share repurchase activity. On February 11, 2015, we announced a new share repurchase program providing for the repurchase of up to $12.0 billion of PepsiCo common stock from July 1, 2015 through June 30, 2018. This repurchase program is in addition to the current $10.0 billion repurchase program authorized by our Board of Directors and publicly announced in the first quarter of 2013, which commenced on July 1, 2013 and expires on June 30, 2016. On February 11, 2015, we also announced a 7% increase in our annualized dividend to $2.81 per share from $2.62 per share, effective with the dividend paid in June 2015. We expect

to return a total of $8.5 billion to $9.0 billion to shareholders in 2015 through share repurchases of approximately $4.5 billion to $5.0 billion and dividends of approximately $4.0 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

We focus on free cash flow as an important element in evaluating our performance. 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 items (included in the table below) in evaluating free cash flow. We believe investors should consider these items in evaluating our free cash flow results. Free cash flow excluding certain items is the primary measure we use to monitor cash flow performance. However, free cash flow and free cash flow excluding certain items are not measures provided by U.S. GAAP. Therefore, these measures are not, and should not be viewed as, substitutes for U.S. GAAP cash flow measures.

The table below reconciles net cash provided by operating activities, as reflected in our cash flow statement, to our free cash flow excluding the impact of the items below.

Free cash flow is used primarily to pay dividends and repurchase shares. 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 ensure appropriate financial flexibility and ready access to global capital and credit markets at favorable interest rates. However, see "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 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 27, 2014 , as well as "Our Business Risks" above for certain factors that may impact 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 "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 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 27, 2014 , and Note 8 to our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm


The Board of Directors and Shareholders

PepsiCo, Inc.:

We have reviewed the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet of PepsiCo, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of June 13, 2015, the related Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income for the twelve and twenty-four weeks ended June 13, 2015 and June 14, 2014, and the related Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows and Equity for the twenty-four weeks ended June 13, 2015 and June 14, 2014. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of PepsiCo, Inc.'s management.

We conducted our review in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). A review of 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 Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), 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.

Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements referred to above for them 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), the Consolidated Balance Sheet of PepsiCo, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of December 27, 2014, and the related Consolidated Statements of Income, Comprehensive Income, Cash Flows and Equity for the fiscal year then ended not presented herein; and in our report dated February 12, 2015, 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 27, 2014, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the Consolidated Balance Sheet from which it has been derived.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Our Business Risks" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 27, 2014 .

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 Securities and Exchange Commission 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.

During our second fiscal quarter of 2015 , 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 over the course of the next few years. 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.

Except as described above, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during our second fiscal quarter of 2015 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 5. Other Information.

The Iran Threat Reduction and Syria Human Rights Act of 2012 (ITRA) requires disclosure of certain activities relating to Iran by PepsiCo or its affiliates. As previously disclosed, one of our foreign subsidiaries historically maintained a small office in Iran, which provided sales support to independent bottlers in Iran in connection with in-country sales of foreign-owned beverage brands, and which was not in contravention of any applicable U.S. sanctions laws. The office ceased all commercial activity since the enactment of ITRA. During our 2014 fiscal year, our foreign subsidiary received a license from the U.S. Treasury Department's Office of Foreign Assets Control authorizing it to engage in activities related to the winding down of the office in Iran and started the process of winding down its office. The license expired during the second quarter of 2015 and the foreign subsidiary ceased the process of winding down the office upon such expiration, applied for a new license and plans to restart the winding-down process upon receipt of the new license. The foreign subsidiary did not engage in any activities in Iran other than wind-down activities in the second quarter of 2015, or have any revenues or profits attributable to activities in Iran during the second quarter of 2015.

In connection with the changes discussed under "Changes to Organizational Structure" in Note 1 to our condensed consolidated financial statements, on July 8, 2015, Albert P. Carey was named Chief Executive Officer of North America Beverages and Laxman Narasimhan was named Chief Executive Officer of Latin America. Sanjeev Chadha continues as Chief Executive Officer of the realigned Asia, Middle East and North Africa segment and Ramon Laguarta continues as Chief Executive Officer of the realigned Europe Sub-Saharan Africa segment.
