In our opinion, these financial statements include all normal and recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation. The results for the 12 ~~and 36~~ weeks ended ~~September 6, 2014~~March 21, 2015 ~~and September 7, 2013~~ 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,” “Items Affecting Comparability”~~Risks” and “Our Liquidity and Capital Resources” in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

While our ~~North America (United~~results in the United States and ~~Canada) results~~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 ~~June, July~~January and ~~August~~February are reflected in our ~~third~~first 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.

Note 2 - Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In ~~May 2014,~~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. This guidance is not expected to have a material impact on our financial statements and we have not yet early adopted this standard.

Table of Contents

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 yet 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. ~~The provisions~~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 ~~2017~~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.

In July 2013, the FASB issued new accounting guidance that requires an entity to net its liability for unrecognized tax positions against a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss or a tax credit carryforward when settlement in this manner is available under the tax law. The provisions of this new guidance were effective as of the beginning of our 2014 fiscal year and did not have a material impact on our financial statements.

In December 2011, the FASB issued new disclosure requirements that were intended to enhance current disclosures on offsetting financial assets and liabilities. The disclosures required an entity to disclose both gross and net information about derivative instruments accounted for in accordance with the guidance on derivatives and hedging that are eligible for offset on the balance sheet and instruments and transactions subject to an agreement similar to a master netting arrangement. The provisions of the disclosure requirements were effective as of the beginning of our 2014 fiscal year. Accordingly, we included enhanced footnote disclosure in Note 10.

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 ~~September 6,~~March 21, 2015 and March 22, 2014,, we incurred restructuring ~~and impairment~~ charges of ~~$54~~$30 million ($3924 million after-tax or ~~$0.03~~$0.02 per share) ~~in conjunction with the 2014 Productivity Plan.

All of these ~~net~~ charges were recorded in selling, general and administrative ~~expenses. The majority~~expenses and primarily relate to severance and other employee-related costs, asset impairments (all non-cash) and contract termination costs. Substantially all of the restructuring accrual at ~~September 6, 2014~~March 21, 2015 is expected to be paid by the end of ~~2014.~~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 36 weeks ended September 6, 2014, $2.2~~2015, $2.1 billion of senior notes matured and were paid.

In the second quarter of 2014, we entered into a new five-year unsecured revolving credit agreement (Five-Year Credit Agreement) which expires on June 9, 2019. In the third quarter of 2014, we increased commitments under this agreement. The Five-Year Credit Agreement enables us and our borrowing subsidiaries to borrow up to $3.7725 billion, subject to customary terms and conditions.

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 strategies.~~hedging. Ongoing productivity initiatives involve the identification and effective implementation of meaningful cost-saving opportunities or ~~efficiencies.~~efficiencies, including the use of derivatives. Our global purchasing programs include fixed-price purchase orders and pricing agreements.

~~Table of Contents~~

~~Derivatives~~

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

Table of Contents

Flows. We classify both the earnings and cash flow impact from these derivatives consistent with the underlying hedged item. ~~See “Our Business Risks” in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations for further unaudited information on our business risks.~~

For cash flow hedges, the effective portion of changes in fair value are 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. Hedging ineffectiveness and a net earnings impact occur when the change in the value of the hedge does not fully offset the change in the value of the underlying hedged item. If the derivative instrument related to a cash flow hedge is terminated or no longer qualifies for hedge accounting, we continue to defer the related gain or loss as part of accumulated other comprehensive loss until the underlying hedged item is recognized in net income. Upon determination that the underlying hedged item will not be part of an actual transaction, we recognize the related gain or loss on the hedge in net income immediately.

~~We also use derivatives that do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment. We account for such derivatives at market value with the resulting gains and losses reflected in our income statement.~~ 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 ~~derivatives.~~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 ~~energy,~~ agricultural products, energy and metals. ~~For~~Ineffectiveness for those derivatives that qualify for hedge accounting treatment ~~any ineffectiveness is recorded immediately in corporate unallocated expenses. Ineffectiveness~~ was not material for all periods presented. ~~During the next 12 months, we expect to reclassify net losses of~~ ~~$19 million~~ ~~related to these hedges from accumulated other comprehensive loss into net income.~~ 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.

~~Table of Contents~~

Our open commodity derivative contracts ~~that qualify for hedge accounting~~ had a ~~face~~notional value of ~~$68 million~~$1.1 billion as of ~~September 6, 2014~~March 21, 2015 and ~~$512 million~~$1.2 billion as of ~~September 7, 2013~~.

~~Our open commodity derivative contracts that do not qualify for hedge accounting had a face value of~~ ~~$1.1 billion~~ ~~as of~~ ~~September 6, 2014~~ ~~and~~ ~~$947 million~~ ~~as of~~ ~~September 7, 2013~~.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~~.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 ~~face~~notional value of ~~$2.6~~$2.3 billion as of ~~September 6, 2014~~March 21, 2015 and ~~$2.8~~$2.7 billion as of ~~September 7, 2013. During the next 12 months, we expect to reclassify net losses of~~ ~~$3 million~~ ~~related to foreign currency derivative contracts~~December 27, 2014. Ineffectiveness for those derivatives that qualify for hedge accounting ~~from accumulated other comprehensive loss into net income. Ineffectiveness~~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 ~~material~~ impact on earnings.

Table of Contents

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 ~~amounts~~values of the interest rate derivative instruments outstanding as of ~~September 6,~~March 21, 2015 and December 27, 2014 were $7.8 billion and ~~September 7, 2013~~ ~~were~~ ~~$9.3~~$9.3 billion, ~~and~~ ~~$7.1 billion~~, respectively. ~~For~~Ineffectiveness for those ~~interest rate derivative instruments~~derivatives that qualify for cash flow hedge accounting ~~any ineffectiveness is recorded immediately. Ineffectiveness~~treatment was not material for all periods presented. ~~During the next 12 months, we expect to reclassify net losses of~~ ~~$20 million~~ ~~related to these hedges from accumulated other comprehensive loss into net income.~~

As of ~~September 6, 2014~~,March 21, 2015, approximately ~~35%~~31% of total debt, after the impact of the related interest rate derivative instruments, was exposed to variable rates, compared to approximately ~~31%~~25% as of December ~~28, 2013.~~27, 2014.

Available-for-Sale Securities

Investments in debt and marketable equity ~~marketable~~ 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 ~~marketable~~ debt securities as of ~~September 6, 2014~~March 21, 2015 were not material.

~~Table of Contents~~

~~Unrealized~~ The pre-tax unrealized gains on our investments in marketable equity securities were ~~$121~~$126 million and ~~$92~~$111 million as of ~~September 6,~~March 21, 2015 and December 27, 2014, ~~and~~ ~~September 7, 2013~~, 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 onof 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 36~~ weeks ended ~~September 6, 2014~~March 21, 2015 and March 22, 2014, respectively.~~September 7, 2013~~.

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.

(a)

Foreign exchange derivative gains/losses are primarily included in selling, general and administrative expenses. Interest rate derivative gains/losses are primarily from fair value hedges and are included in interest expense. These gains/losses are substantially offset by increases/decreases in the value of the underlying debt, which are also included in interest expense. Commodity derivative gains/losses are included in either cost of sales or selling, general and administrative expenses, depending on the underlying commodity.


(b)	Foreign exchange derivative gains/losses are primarily included in cost of sales. Interest rate derivative gains/losses are included in interest expense. Commodity derivative gains/losses are included in either cost of sales or selling, general and administrative expenses, depending on the underlying commodity.

During the next 12 months, we expect to reclassify net gains of $39 million related to our cash flow hedges from accumulated other comprehensive loss into net income.

~~Suntory Holdings Limited~~

During our second quarter of 2013, as part of the refranchising of our beverage business in Vietnam, we completed a transaction with Suntory Holdings Limited. Under the terms of the agreement, we sold a controlling interest in our Vietnam bottling operations. The alliance serves as the franchise bottler for both companies. In our second quarter 2013 results, we recorded a pre- and after-tax gain of $137 million (or $0.09 per share) associated with this transaction.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Our discussion and analysis is ~~an integral part~~intended to help the reader understand our results of ~~understanding our~~operations and financial ~~results~~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 ~~28, 2013~~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.

In the ~~36 weeks ended September 6, 2014,~~first quarter of 2015, our operations outside of North America reflect the months of January and February. Our operations outside of the U.S. generated ~~48%~~37% of our net revenue, with ~~Russia,~~ Mexico, Canada, Russia, the United Kingdom and Brazil comprising approximately ~~23%~~17% of our net revenue.

~~2014~~markets and in Venezuela (discussed below), continue to result in challenging operating environments. In the 12 weeks ended March 21, 2015, unfavorable foreign ~~currency decreased~~exchange negatively impacted net revenue ~~growth~~performance by 18 percentage point, primarily due to depreciation of the Russian ruble, the Ukrainian hryvnia, the Argentine peso and the Turkish lira, partially offset by appreciation of the British pound.

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 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.

~~In the 36 weeks~~As of March 21, 2015, there was a three-tiered exchange rate mechanism in ~~2014 and 2013,~~Venezuela for exchanging bolivars into U.S. dollars:

The government-operated National Center of Foreign Commerce (CENCOEX), which has a ~~substantial number of our Venezuelan transactions included items which are categorized as essential goods at the~~ fixed exchange rate of 6.3 bolivars per U.S. dollar ~~through~~(fixed exchange rate) mainly intended for the ~~government-operated National Center~~import of essential goods and services by designated industry sectors.

The auction-based Supplementary Foreign ~~Commerce (CENCOEX) (“fixed exchange rate”)~~Currency Administration System (now known as SICAD, resulting from the unification in February 2015 of SICAD I and II), ~~formerly the~~which is intended for certain transactions, including foreign investments.

An open market Marginal Foreign Exchange ~~Administration Board (CADIVI). The Venezuelan government has continued to release funding of U.S. dollars at the fixed exchange rate for our eligible transactions. In~~System (SIMADI), established in February 2013, the Venezuelan government devalued the bolivar by resetting the fixed exchange rate from 4.3 bolivars per U.S. dollar to 6.3 bolivars per U.S. dollar, resulting in an after-tax net charge of $111 million in the first quarter of 2013 (see “Items Affecting Comparability”). In January 2014, the Venezuelan government announced the expansion of its auction-based foreign exchange system (SICAD) to include additional items, including foreign investments. In March 2014, the Venezuelan government introduced an additional auction-based foreign exchange system (SICAD 2)2015, which ~~permits all companies incorporated or domiciled in Venezuela to bid for U.S. dollars for any purpose. As of~~ ~~September 6, 2014~~, the SICAD exchange rate was 11.70 bolivars per U.S. dollar and the SICAD 2 exchange rate was 49.98 bolivars per U.S. dollar. As we believe the fixed exchange rate of 6.3 bolivars per U.S. dollar remains legallyis available to ~~us,~~companies and individuals to exchange foreign currency based on supply and demand.

At the end of each period, we ~~intend to continue to~~ remeasure the net monetary assets of our ~~Venezuelan~~Venezuela entities from the bolivar to the U.S. dollar at ~~this rate.~~

At ~~September 6, 2014~~,the rate we ~~had pending~~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 ~~with an agency of the Venezuelan government~~ 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. ~~These requests pertain to years from 2006 to 2012. We are unable to predict the likelihood of Venezuelan government approvals of these requests or, if approved, the estimated time for remittance.~~

In the ~~36 weeks ended September 6, 2014,~~first quarter of 2015, our results of operations in Venezuela, which reflect the months of January ~~through August,~~and February, generated 2% of our net revenue and 4%1% of our operating profit. ~~In the 36 weeks endedSeptember 7, 2013~~, our operations in Venezuela generated 1% of our net revenue and 2% of our operating profit. In the year ended December 28, 2013, our operations in Venezuela generated 1% of our net revenue and 2% of our operating profit. The devaluation charge of $111 million did not have a material impact on the results of our operations for the full year. As of ~~September 6, 2014~~,March 21, 2015, our operations in Venezuela comprised ~~10%~~9% of our cash and cash equivalents balance. Our bolivar-denominated net monetary assets in Venezuela, which primarily include cash and cash equivalents, approximated $505 million at ~~September 6, 2014~~.March 21, 2015. At March 21, 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 $635 million at March 21, 2015.

We believe that significant uncertainty ~~remains~~exists regarding the exchange mechanisms in Venezuela, including the nature of transactions that ~~will~~are eligible to flow through CENCOEX, SICAD or ~~SICAD 2, and whether a converged~~SIMADI, or any other new exchange mechanism ~~will~~that may emerge, ~~as well as~~ how ~~these~~any such mechanisms will operate in the future, ~~and~~as well as the availability of U.S. dollars under ~~each.~~each mechanism. We continue to monitor developments closely and may 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 first quarter of 2015, we had used the SICAD exchange ~~rates were to range between 10 and 50~~rate, which was 12 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 ~~expect the potential after-tax net charge of remeasuring our Venezuela businesses to be approximately $190 million to $440 million. Such a charge,~~

have incurred a net charge of approximately $160 million. If, at the end of the first quarter of 2015, we had remeasured all net monetary assets of our Venezuela businesses at the SIMADI exchange rate, which was approximately 177 bolivars per U.S. dollar as of that date, we would have incurred a net charge of approximately $480 million. 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 0% of our net revenue and 0% of our operating profit and it would also lead to an impairment of our non-monetary assets, which were approximately $635 million at March 21, 2015. Any such remeasurement and potential impairment charges, if recognized, would be reflected in “Items Affecting Comparability.” ~~Further~~Any further devaluation of the bolivar, ~~below~~change in the ~~fixed~~currency exchange mechanisms, additional governmental actions or fluctuation of the auction-based SICAD exchange rate could adversely affect our financial position, including ~~any~~a potential impairment of non-monetary assets, ~~which primarily include equity investments, intangible assets, inventory and property, plant and equipment, and~~ 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.~~

~~In 2014, the Venezuelan government also issued a new Law on Fair Pricing, establishing a maximum profit margin of 30%. We do not expect the law~~remeasurement, and our ability to ~~have a material impact on~~make effective business decisions with respect to our ~~consolidated results or financial position.~~Venezuela operations.

During ~~the third quarter of~~ 2014, Russia announced economic sanctions against the ~~U.S.~~United States and other nations that include a ban on imports of certain ingredients and finished goods from specific countries. ~~We do~~The sanctions did not ~~anticipate the current sanctions~~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 3612 week periods ended ~~September 6,~~March 21, 2015 and March 22, 2014, 3% and ~~September 7, 2013, 7%~~5.5%, respectively, of our total net revenue was generated by our operations in Russia. As of ~~September 6, 2014,~~March 21, 2015, our long-lived assets in Russia were $7$4.3 billion. Our operations in Ukraine are not significant in relation to our consolidated results or financial position.

Mark-to-Market Net Impact

We centrally manage commodity derivatives on behalf of our divisions. These commodity derivatives include ~~energy,~~ agricultural products, energy and metals. ~~Certain of these commodity~~Commodity derivatives that do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment ~~and~~ are marked to market each period with the resulting gains and losses ~~recognized~~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 ~~September 6, 2014~~,March 21, 2015, we recognized ~~$33~~$1 million ($201 million after-tax ~~or $0.01~~with a nominal amount per share) of mark-to-market net losses on commodity hedges in corporate unallocated expenses, with an $18 million net loss recognized in cost of sales and a $17 million net gain recognized in selling, general and administrative expenses.

~~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 for our Venezuelan 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. In total, this net charge had an after-tax impact of $~~111 million~~ ~~or $0.07~~ ~~per share.~~

In the event we remeasure the net monetary assets of our Venezuelan entities at a rate other than the fixed exchange rate, any charge associated with such remeasurement would be reflected in “Items Affecting Comparability.” For additional information on Venezuela, see “Our Business Risks.”

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 ~~more~~ 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, ~~substitutes~~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 week periods ended March 21, 2015 and ~~36 weeks ended~~ ~~September 6,~~March 22, 2014,, total servings increased 1%. ~~For the~~ 12 ~~and 36 weeks ended~~ ~~September 7, 2013, total servings increased 1% and~~ 3%~~, respectively. Servings growth in 2013 reflects an adjustment to the base year (2012) for divestitures that occurred in 2012.~~

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~~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 ~~third~~first quarter includes beverage volume outside of North America for ~~June, July~~the months of January and ~~August~~.February. 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 increased 3% and operating margin increased 0.4 percentage points. Operating profit growth was primarily driven by effective net pricing, planned cost reductions across a number of expense categories and volume growth, partially offset by certain operating cost increases, including strategic initiatives related to capacity and capability, and higher commodity costs. Net commodity inflation reduced operating profit growth by 3.5 percentage points, primarily attributable to inflation in the Europe and LAF segments, partially offset by deflation in the PAB and FLNA segments. Other corporate unallocated expenses decreased 8%, primarily reflecting decreased pension expense. Items affecting comparability (see “Items Affecting Comparability”) had a slight positive impact on both total operating profit growth and total operating margin.

~~Net interest expense decreased $11 million, reflecting lower interest rates on our debt and higher interest income due to higher average cash balances.~~

The reported tax rate decreased 1.4 percentage points, primarily due to the favorable resolution of certain tax matters in the current year, as well as the current-year benefit from the resolution with the IRS in the fourth quarter of 2013 of audits for taxable years 2003 through 2009, partially offset by income mix shift.

Net income attributable to PepsiCo increased 5% and net income attributable to PepsiCo per common share increased 7%. Items affecting comparability (see “Items Affecting Comparability”) negatively contributed 2 percentage points to performance in both net income attributable to PepsiCo and net income attributable to PepsiCo per common share.

An impairment charge in the QFNA segment associated with our MQD joint venture negatively impacted operating profit performance by nearly 4 percentage points. The net impact of a gain associated with refranchising a portion of our bottling operations in India and the lapping of a gain associated with the sale of agricultural assets in Russia in the prior year positively contributed 0.5 percentage points to operating profit performance. Other corporate unallocated expenses decreased 11%, primarily reflecting decreased pension expenses and lower foreign exchange transaction losses.

Results of Operations – Division Review

The results and discussions below are based on how our Chief Executive Officer monitors the performance of our divisions. 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 ~~joint ventures.~~

Organic Revenue Growth

Organic revenue growth is a significant measure ~~that~~ 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.

These ~~increases~~gains were partially offset by a ~~double-digit~~low-single-digit decline in trademark ~~SunChips and a mid-single-digit decline in trademark Tostitos.~~Ruffles.

Operating profit grew 5%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 4 percentage points to operating profit growth, primarily cooking oil and ~~corn,~~corn. These impacts were partially offset by certain operating cost increases and higher advertising and marketing expenses.

Net revenue increased 1% and volume grew 2%. The net revenue growth was primarily driven by the volume increase, which reflects high-single-digit growth in ready-to-eat cereals, low-single-digit growth in Oatmeal and mid-single-digit growth in Aunt Jemima syrup and mix. These volume increases were partially offset by a double-digit decline in MQD products.

Operating profit declined 38%, primarily reflecting an impairment charge associated with our MQD joint venture, which negatively impacted operating profit performance by 41 percentage points. Operating profit performance was also negatively impacted by higher advertising and marketing expenses and certain operating cost increases. These impacts were partially offset by planned cost reductions across a number of expense categories and the volume growth.

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, ~~(including~~such as commercial paper borrowings and long-term debt financing, ~~which, depending upon market conditions, we may use to replace a portion of our commercial paper borrowings),~~ will be adequate to meet our operating, investing and financing needs. ~~Sources~~Our primary sources of cash available to us to fund cash outflows, such as our anticipated share repurchases, ~~and~~ dividend payments and scheduled debt maturities, include cash from operations and proceeds obtained ~~in the U.S. debt markets.~~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 ~~28, 2013~~.27, 2014.

As of ~~September 6, 2014~~,March 21, 2015, we had cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments of ~~$12.0~~$7.8 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 March 21, 2015, our operations in Venezuela comprised 9% of our cash and cash equivalents balance. For additional information on our operations in Venezuela, see “Our Business ~~Risks” and “Items Affecting Comparability.~~Risks.”

Operating Activities

During the 3612 weeks in ~~2014~~,2015, net cash provided by operating activities ~~of $6.7 billion~~ was ~~even with~~$270 million, compared to $181 million in the prior ~~year.~~year period. The operating cash flow performance primarily reflects higher prior year net cash tax payments.

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

Investing Activities

During the 3612 weeks in ~~2014~~,2015, net cash ~~used for~~provided by investing activities was ~~$6.7 billion,~~$320 million, primarily reflecting ~~purchases~~net maturities of ~~marketable~~ debt securities of ~~$5.4 billion, as well as~~$517 million, partially offset by net capital spending of ~~$1.5 billion.~~$259 million. See Note 10 to our condensed consolidated financial statements for further discussion of our ~~marketable~~ debt securities.

We expect ~~2014~~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 3612 weeks in ~~2014~~,2015, net cash used for financing activities was ~~$2.0 billion,~~$210 million, primarily reflecting the return of operating cash flow to our shareholders through dividend payments and share repurchases of $2.1 billion and ~~dividend~~net payments of ~~$6.0~~long term-debt borrowings of $2.1 billion, ~~largely~~partially offset by net proceeds from short-term borrowings of ~~$2.1 billion, net proceeds from long-term debt borrowings of $1.2~~$3.7 billion and proceeds from exercises of stock options of ~~$0.6~~$0.2 billion.

We annually review our capital structure with our Board of Directors, including our dividend policy and share repurchase activity. On February ~~13, 2014,~~11, 2015, we announced a ~~15%~~new share repurchase program providing for the repurchase of up to $12.0 billion of PepsiCo common stock commencing on July 1, 2015 and expiring on 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 ~~$2.62~~$2.81 per share from ~~$2.27~~$2.62 per share, effective with the dividend that is expected to be paid in June ~~2014.~~2015.

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 and pay dividends.~~shares. We expect to continue to return free cash flow to our shareholders through dividends and share repurchases ~~and dividends~~ 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 ~~28, 2013~~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 ~~28, 2013~~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 ~~September 6, 2014~~,March 21, 2015, the related Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income, ~~and~~ Comprehensive Income, ~~for the twelve and thirty-six weeks ended~~ ~~September 6, 2014~~ ~~and~~ ~~September 7, 2013, and the related Condensed Consolidated Statements of~~ Cash Flows, and Equity for the ~~thirty-six~~twelve weeks ended ~~September 6, 2014~~March 21, 2015 and ~~September 7, 2013~~.March 22, 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 ~~28, 2013~~,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 ~~14, 2014,~~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 ~~28, 2013~~,27, 2014, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the Consolidated Balance Sheet from which it has been derived.

See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Our Business Risks” and Note 10 to our condensed consolidated financial statements. In addition, see “Item 1A. Risk Factors” and “Item 7. 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 ~~28, 2013.~~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 Executive Vice President~~ 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 Executive Vice President~~ 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 ~~Executive Vice President and~~ Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

During our ~~third~~first fiscal quarter of ~~2014,~~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 ~~third~~first fiscal quarter of ~~2014~~2015 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. Legal Proceedings.

The following information should be read in conjunction with the discussion set forth under Part I, Item 3. “Legal Proceedings” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December ~~28, 2013, as updated by~~27, 2014.

As previously disclosed: (i) on January 6, 2011, Wojewodzka Inspekcja Ochrony Srodowiska, the Polish environmental control authority (the Polish Authority), began an audit of a bottling plant of our ~~Quarterly Reports~~subsidiary, Pepsi-Cola General Bottlers Poland SP, z.o.o. (PCGB), in Michrow, Poland; (ii) on ~~Form 10-Q~~February 18, 2011, the Polish Authority alleged that in 2009 the plant was not in compliance with applicable regulations requiring the use of approved laboratories for the ~~quarters ended March 22, 2014~~analysis of the plant’s waste and ~~June 14, 2014.~~sought monetary sanctions of $700,000 and PCGB appealed this decision; and (iii) on January 15, 2013, the Supreme Administrative Court issued a final, non-appealable decision finding that the sanctions against PCGB were imposed in violation of applicable environmental law and released PCGB from all liability with respect to such sanctions.

WeIn addition, we and our subsidiaries are party to a variety of legal, administrative, regulatory and government proceedings, claims and inquiries arising in the normal course of business.

Risk Factors – Changes in the legal and regulatory environment could limit our business activities, increase our operating costs, reduce demand for our products or result in litigation.”, “Item 1A.
