NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

1. General

References in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to "DPS" or "the Company" refer to Dr Pepper Snapple Group, Inc. and all entities included in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q refers to some of DPS' owned or licensed trademarks, trade names and service marks, which are referred to as the Company's brands. All of the product names included herein are either DPS' registered trademarks or those of the Company's licensors.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting principally of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 ("Annual Report").

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

DPS consolidates all wholly owned subsidiaries. The Company uses the equity method to account for investments in companies if the investment provides the Company with the ability to exercise significant influence over operating and financial policies of the investee. Consolidated net income includes DPS' proportionate share of the net income or loss of these companies. Judgment regarding the level of influence over each equity method investment includes considering key factors such as ownership interest, representation on the board of directors or similar governing body, participation in policy-making decisions and material intercompany transactions.

The Company is also required to consolidate entities that are variable interest entities (“VIEs”) of which DPS is the primary beneficiary. Judgments are made in assessing whether the Company is the primary beneficiary, including determination of the activities that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance.

The Company eliminates from its financial results all intercompany transactions between entities included in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the intercompany transactions with its equity method investees.

USE OF ESTIMATES

The process of preparing DPS'unaudited condensed consolidatedfinancial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the use of estimates and judgments that affect the reported amount of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses. These estimates and judgments are based on historical experience, future expectations and other factors and assumptions the Company believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. These estimates and judgments are reviewed on an ongoing basis and are revised when necessary. Changes in estimates are recorded in the period of change. Actual amounts may differ from these estimates.

RECLASSIFICATIONS

Unrealized gains and losses on derivatives classified as economic hedges have been reclassified from other, net to the unrealized gains on economic hedges caption within the operating activities section in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the prior period to conform to the current year's presentation, with no impact to total cash provided by (used in) operating, investing or financing activities.

Excess tax benefit on stock-based compensation in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows has been reclassified from financing activities to other, net within operating activities for the prior period to conform to the current year's presentation as a result of the adoption of Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2016-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share Based Payment Accounting ("ASU 2016-09"). See Recently Adopted Provisions of U.S. GAAP below for further details on the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-09 on the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

Effective in 2018

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) ("ASU 2014-09"). The new guidance sets forth a new five-step revenue recognition model which replaces the prior revenue recognition guidance in its entirety and is intended to eliminate numerous industry-specific pieces of revenue recognition guidance that have historically existed in U.S. GAAP. The underlying principle of the new standard is that a business or other organization will recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects what it expects in exchange for the goods or services. The standard also requires more detailed disclosures and provides additional guidance for transactions that were not addressed completely in the prior accounting guidance. ASU 2014-09 provides alternative methods of initial adoption.

In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date, which defers the effective date of ASU 2014-09 by one year to December 15, 2017 for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after that date and permitted early adoption of the standard, but not before the original effective date. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-08, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net), which clarifies the implementation guidance on principal versus agent considerations for the new model. In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-10, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing, which clarifies the implementation guidance related to identifying performance obligations and licensing for the new model. In May 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-12, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients, which improves guidance on assessing collectibility, presentation of sales taxes, noncash consideration, and completed contracts and contract modifications at transition. These updates are effective concurrently with Topic 606 (ASU 2014-09).

At this point in time, the Company intends to adopt the above standards using the modified retrospective approach for the quarter ending March 31, 2018. In preparation for the Company's adoption of the new standards, management assembled a project management team, which has obtained representative samples of contracts and other forms of agreements with our customers and is evaluating the provisions contained within those documents based on the new guidance. While the Company does not expect this change to have a material impact on the Company's results of operations, financial position and cash flows once implemented on an annual basis, the Company does expect an increase in contract liabilities and a potential impact on its net sales in interim periods due to timing. The Company is still evaluating the disclosure requirements under these standards. As the Company completes its overall evaluation, the Company is also identifying and preparing to implement changes to its accounting policies, practices and controls to support the new standards.

In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-07, Compensation - Retirement Benefits (Topic 715): Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost ("ASU 2017-07"). The ASU requires employers who offer defined benefit pension plans or other post-retirement benefit plans to report the service cost component within the same income statement caption as other compensation costs arising from services rendered by employees during the period. The ASU also requires the other components of net periodic benefit cost to be presented separately from the service cost component, in a caption outside of a subtotal of income from operations. Additionally, the ASU provides that only the service cost component is eligible for capitalization. ASU 2017-07 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and early adoption is permitted. The standard requires retrospective adoption of the presentation of the components of net periodic benefit costs and prospective application of the capitalization of the service cost component in assets. The Company does not expect this will have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

Effective in 2019

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) ("ASU 2016-02"). The ASU replaces the prior lease accounting guidance in its entirety. The underlying principle of the new standard is the recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities by lessees for substantially all leases, with an exception for leases with terms of less than twelve months. The standard also requires additional quantitative and qualitative disclosures. ASU 2016-02 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and early adoption is permitted. The standard requires a modified retrospective approach, which includes several optional practical expedients. The Company does not intend to early adopt the standard. The Company has assembled a project management team and is in the early stages of evaluation. The Company anticipates the impact of the standard to be significant to its Consolidated Balance Sheet due to the amount of the Company's lease commitments. The Company is currently evaluating the other impacts that ASU 2016-02 will have on the consolidated financial statements.

RECENTLY ADOPTED PROVISIONS OF U.S. GAAP

As of January 1, 2017, the Company adopted ASU 2015-11, Inventory (Topic 330): Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory. This ASU requires inventories measured under any methods other than last-in, first-out ("LIFO") or the retail inventory method to be subsequently measured at the lower of cost or net realizable value, rather than at the lower of cost or market. Subsequent measurement of inventory using LIFO or the retail inventory method is unchanged by this ASU. The adoption of the ASU did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

As of January 1, 2017, the Company adopted ASU 2016-09, which is part of the FASB's simplification initiative. The new standard provides for changes to accounting for stock compensation including 1) excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies related to share based payment awards will be recognized as income tax benefit or expense in the reporting period in which they occur; 2) excess tax benefits will be classified as an operating activity in the statement of cash flow; 3) the option to elect to estimate forfeitures or account for them when they occur; and 4) an increase in the tax withholding requirements threshold to qualify for equity classification. Beginning in 2017, the primary impact of adoption was the recognition of excess tax benefits for our stock awards in the provision for income taxes rather than additional paid-in capital. Additional amendments to the accounting for income taxes and minimum statutory withholding tax requirements had no impact to retained earnings. The Company elected to continue to estimate forfeitures expected to occur to determine the amount of compensation cost to be recognized in each period.

Adoption of the new standard resulted in the recognition of excess tax benefits in our provision for income taxes rather than paid-in capital of $1 million and $19 million, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017. The presentation of excess tax benefits on stock-based compensation was adjusted retrospectively within the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, resulting in a $21 million increase in net cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2016, with a corresponding increase to net cash used in financing activities. The presentation requirements for cash flows related to employee taxes paid for withheld shares had no impact to any of the periods presented on the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows as the Company has historically presented them as a financing activity.

As of January 1, 2017, the Company early adopted ASU No. 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230), Restricted Cash ("ASU 2016-18"), which requires amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning and ending amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. The Company elected to early adopt the provisions of ASU 2016-18 as of January 1, 2017 and has revised its unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 to reflect amounts described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents included with cash and cash equivalents in the reconciliation of beginning of period and end of period total amounts shown on the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flow. The adoption had no impact on amounts presented in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the six months ended June 30, 2016. Refer to Note 14 for the reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents as presented on the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets to the amounts as shown on the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

2. Acquisitions

BAI BRANDS MERGER

Description of the Transaction

On November 21, 2016, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement") with Bai Brands LLC ("Bai Brands"), pursuant to which we agreed to acquire Bai Brands for a cash purchase price of 1.7 billion, subject to certain adjustments in the Merger Agreement (the "Bai Brands Merger"). The acquisition of Bai Brands will further enable the Company to meet growing consumer demand for better-for-you beverages, as Bai Brands is positioned for expanding growth in key beverage segments.

On January 31, 2017, the Company funded the Bai Brands Merger with the net proceeds from the senior unsecured notes issued in December 2016 and cash on hand. In order to complete the Bai Brands Merger, the Company paid $1,548 million, net of the Company's previous ownership interest, in exchange for the remaining ownership interests and seller transaction costs. Additionally, $103 million was held back and placed in escrow.

8

As a result of the Bai Brands Merger, our existing 2.63% equity interest in Bai Brands was remeasured to fair value of $43 million, which resulted in a gain of $28 million that was recognized in the first quarter of 2017 and included in other operating income, net.

Two transactions related to the Bai Brands Merger were recognized separately from the acquisition of assets and assumptions of liabilities of Bai Brands:

• The Company paid certain seller transaction costs, which included $2 million to reimburse Bai Brands for payments made on behalf of the Company for buyer acquisition-related costs, which were recorded as selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses. The remainder of the seller transaction costs paid by the Company were accounted for by the Company as part of the consideration transferred.

• Bai Brands had an executory contract as of January 31, 2017, which compensated certain counterparties with Profit Interest Units from Bai Brands (the “Predecessor PIUs”). The Predecessor PIUs were based upon the counterparties completing service requirements and various performance criteria. As a result of the Bai Brands Merger, these Predecessor PIUs have fully vested and were converted into cash as of January 31, 2017 based upon the consideration paid by the Company to acquire Bai Brands. The cash was placed in escrow and will be released from escrow to the counterparties on certain anniversary dates as long as the counterparties are not in breach of the executory contract. Although none of the costs of these benefits have been paid by the Company, DPS will record SG&A expenses for the deferred compensation amounts payable to these counterparties by Bai Brands. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company recognized $2 million of compensation expense related to performance on the executory contract. As of June 30, 2017, the total unrecognized compensation cost is $11 million and the period over which these costs are expected to be recognized is 15 months.

The Company’s preliminary purchase price was $1,649 million, net of the Company's previous ownership interest. The components of the preliminary purchase price are presented below:

(in millions)	Preliminary Purchase Price
Cash paid to consummate Bai Brands Merger, net of the Company's previous ownership interest	$	1,550
Holdback placed in escrow	101
Less: Seller transaction costs reimbursed to Bai Brands for payments made on behalf of the Company for its acquisition-related costs	(2		)
Preliminary Purchase Price - Bai Brands(1)	$	1,649

___________________________

(1) The preliminary purchase price excludes the impact of the Company's pre-existing ownership interest.

Acquisition and integration-related expenses of $1 million and $20 million were recognized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively, and were included in SG&A expenses.

Escrow/Holdback Liability

The $101 million holdback placed in escrow, as of June 30, 2017, is made up of two components:

• $90 million, which will be held in escrow to secure indemnification obligations of the sellers relating to the accuracy of representations and warranties and a working capital adjustment, which is currently in negotiation under the terms of the Merger Agreement. As of January 31, 2018, $80 million less any working capital adjustment will be released. The remaining $10 million will be released approximately 4 years after the acquisition date, subject to certain administrative conditions, and

• $11 million of unrecognized compensation associated with the Predecessor PIUs related to the performance of certain counterparties, which will be held in escrow and released over the next 15 months.

9

The acquisition consideration held in escrow does not meet the definition of contingent consideration as provided under U.S. GAAP. The amount held in escrow was included in the preliminary purchase price as representations and warranties were expected to be valid as of the acquisition date. The escrow is included in restricted cash along with a corresponding amount in the liability section of the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, which is allocated between other current liabilities and other non-current liabilities. Refer to Note 14 for additional information on location of the restricted cash on the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Preliminary Purchase Price Allocation

The following table summarizes the preliminary allocation of the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed by major class for the Bai Brands Merger:

(in millions)	Fair Value			Useful Life
Property, plant & equipment	$	4		5 - 10 years
Customer relationships	30			7 years
Non-compete agreements	22			2 - 4 years
Brands	1,073			Indefinite
Goodwill	568			Indefinite
Assumed liabilities, net of acquired assets	(7		)	N/A
Total	$	1,690

The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination, and the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded at their estimated fair values at the date of acquisition. We have completed our preliminary valuation to determine the fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The fair values of the assets acquired were determined using various valuation techniques, including an income approach. The fair value measurements were primarily based on significant inputs that are not directly observable in the market and are considered Level 3 under the fair value measurements and disclosure framework. Key assumptions include cash flow projections of Bai Brands and the discount rate applied to those cash flows. The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair values was recorded as goodwill.

In connection with this acquisition, the Company recorded goodwill of $568 million, which is deductible for tax purposes. The goodwill recognized was attributable to certain tax benefits the Company will realize over time, Bai Brands' management team and growth opportunities in a “better-for-you” beverage segment.

The Company recorded $34 million for the fair value of contingent liabilities assumed upon acquisition primarily related to existing manufacturing contracts. The fair value of the contingent liabilities was determined using discounted cash flows on expected future payments related to these contracts. The contingent liabilities will be evaluated each reporting period based on events and circumstances which may impact future payments under these contracts, and any changes in fair value will be recorded in the Company's unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

Pro Forma Information

The Company’s acquisition of Bai Brands is strategically significant to the future growth prospects of the Company; however at the time of the acquisition, the historical results of Bai Brands were immaterial to the Company’s consolidated financial results. Assuming the results of Bai Brands had been included in operations beginning on January 1, 2016, the estimated pro forma net operating revenues of the Company for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 would have been approximately $1,797 million and $3,309 million, respectively, and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 would have been approximately $1,711 million and $3,207 million, respectively. The estimated pro forma net income, which includes the alignment of accounting policies, the effect of fair value adjustments related to the Bai Brands Merger, the associated tax effects and the impact of the additional debt to finance the Bai Brands Merger, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 would have been approximately $186 million and $352 million, respectively, and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 would have been approximately $245 million and $415 million, respectively. This estimated pro forma information is not necessarily indicative of the results that actually would have occurred had the Bai Brands Merger been completed on the date indicated or the future operating results.

Actual Results of Bai Brands

For the periods subsequent to the acquisition date that are included in the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, Bai Brands had net sales of $70 million and $105 million, respectively, and net loss of $6 million and $11 million, respectively. These results do not reflect the consolidation impact of the Company's acquisition of Bai Brands.

The following table reconciles the net sales and net loss of Bai Brands since the acquisition date to the impact of Bai Brands to the Company's consolidated results of operations:

	For the Three Months Ended June 30,			For the Six Months Ended June 30,
(in millions)	2017			2017
Net sales - Bai Brands	$	70		$	105
Intercompany sales to Packaged Beverages Excluding Bai	(51		)	(75		)

Approximately $201 million and $158 million of the Company's inventory was accounted for under the LIFO method of accounting as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. The reduction to LIFO cost reflects the excess of the current cost of LIFO inventories as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, over the amount at which these inventories were valued on the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, there was no LIFO inventory liquidation. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, LIFO inventory liquidation increased the Company's gross profit by $2 million.

The 2027 and 2045 Notes

In June 2017, the Company issued $400 million of senior unsecured notes, consisting of $100 million aggregate principal amount of 2027 Notes and $300 million aggregate principal amount of 2045 Notes in a private offering under Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The 2027 Notes and 2045 Notes have substantially identical terms, other than with respect to transfer restrictions and registration rights, as the previously issued 2027 Notes and 2045 Notes. The premium associated with these notes was approximately $16 million. Debt issuance costs related to the issuance of these notes were approximately $4 million. A portion of the proceeds from the issuance of the 2027 and 2045 Notes was used to complete the June 2017 tender offer described below. As of June 30, 2017, the remaining proceeds were invested in short-term investments, which are recorded in the cash and cash equivalents caption of the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Refer to Note 18 for additional information about the use of such excess proceeds to redeem the outstanding 2018 Notes in July 2017.

The 2018 and 2038 Notes

In June 2017, the Company completed a tender offer for a portion of its 2018 Notes and its 2038 Notes. As a result of these transactions, the Company retired, at a premium, an aggregate principal amount of approximately $63 million of the 2018 Notes and approximately $125 million of the 2038 Notes. The loss on early extinguishment of the 2018 Notes and the 2038 Notes was approximately $49 million, comprised of $62 million for the tender offer consideration, the early tender premium and write off of deferred financing costs, partially offset by a $13 million gain on the termination of interest rate swap related to the 2038 Notes. Refer to Note 7 for additional information on the termination of the interest rate swap.

Refer to Note 18 for additional information regarding the subsequent redemption of the remaining outstanding 2018 Notes in July 2017.

UNSECURED CREDIT AGREEMENT

In March 2017, the Company entered into a new five-year unsecured credit agreement (the "Credit Agreement"), which provides for a $500 million revolving line of credit (the "Revolver"). This Credit Agreement and Revolver fully replaced the Company's previous unsecured credit agreement and revolving line of credit, which was due to expire on September 25, 2017 and was terminated on March 16, 2017. There were no principal borrowings outstanding under the previous unsecured credit agreement upon termination. The Company incurred debt issuance costs of approximately $1 million in connection with the Credit Agreement during the six months ended June 30, 2017.

Borrowings under the Revolver bear interest at a floating rate per annum based upon the alternate base rate ("ABR") or the Eurodollar rate, in each case plus an applicable margin which varies based upon the Company's debt ratings. Rates range from 0.000% to 0.300% for the ABR loans and from 0.805% to 1.300% for Eurodollar loans. The ABR is defined as the greater of (a) JPMorgan Chase Bank's prime rate, (b) the Federal Reserve Bank of New York ("NYFRB") rate, as defined below, plus 0.500% and (c) the Adjusted LIBOR, as defined below, for a one month interest period plus 1.00%. The NYFRB rate is the greater of (a) the federal funds effective rate or (b) the overnight bank funding rate. The Adjusted LIBOR is the London interbank offered rate for dollars, adjusted for a statutory reserve rate set by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System of the United States of America.

Additionally, the Revolver is available for the issuance of letters of credit, not to exceed $75 million. Letters of credit will reduce, on a dollar for dollar basis, the amount available under the Revolver.

The Credit Agreement further provides that we may request at any time, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, that the aggregate commitments under the facility be increased by a total amount not to exceed $250 million.

The Credit Agreement's representations, warranties, covenants and events of default are generally customary for investment grade credit and include a financial covenant that requires the Company to maintain a ratio as provided therein of Consolidated Total Debt to Consolidated EBITDA of no more than 3.50 to 1.00, tested quarterly. During the twelve month period following a Material Acquisition thereunder, the ratio may increase to no more than 4.00 to 1.00. Upon the occurrence of an event of default, among other things, amounts outstanding may be accelerated and the commitments may be terminated. The Company's obligations are guaranteed by certain of the Company's direct and indirect domestic subsidiaries. The Credit Agreement has a maturity date of March 16, 2022; however, with the consent of lenders holding more than 50% of the total commitments thereunder and subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, the Company may extend the maturity date for up to two additional one-year terms.

Under these facilities, $120 million is available for the issuance of letters of credit, $60 million of which was utilized as of June 30, 2017 and $60 million of which remains available for use.

BRIDGE FINANCING FOR BAI BRANDS MERGER

On November 21, 2016, the Company entered into a commitment letter for a 364-day bridge loan facility (the "Bridge Facility") in an aggregate principal amount of up to $1,700 million, in order to ensure that financing would be available for the Bai Brands Merger. On January 31, 2017, in accordance with its terms, the commitment under the Bridge Facility was automatically terminated upon the Company's funding of the Bai Brands Merger.

SHELF REGISTRATION STATEMENT

On August 10, 2016, the Company's Board of Directors (the "Board") authorized the Company to issue up to $2,000 million of securities from time to time. Subsequently, the Company filed a "well-known seasoned issuer" shelf registration statement (the "Shelf") with the SEC, effective September 2, 2016, which registered an indeterminate amount of securities for future sales. On September 16, 2016, the Company issued $400 million of 2026 Notes under the Shelf, leaving $1,600 million of securities authorized for issuance under the Shelf. On November 16, 2016, the Board replenished the authorized aggregate amount of securities available to be issued by an additional $400 million, which raised the full authorized amount to $2,000 million. On December 14, 2016, the Company issued an aggregate of $1,550 million of 2021, 2023, 2027 and 2046 Notes. As of June 30, 2017, $450 million remained authorized to be issued under the Shelf.

7. Derivatives

DPS is exposed to market risks arising from adverse changes in:

•interest rates;

•foreign exchange rates; and

• commodity prices affecting the cost of raw materials and fuels, which are recorded in cost of sales and SG&A expenses, respectively.

The Company manages these risks through a variety of strategies, including the use of interest rate contracts, foreign exchange forward contracts, commodity forward and future contracts and supplier pricing agreements. DPS does not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.

DR PEPPER SNAPPLE GROUP, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited, Continued)

The Company formally designates and accounts for certain interest rate contracts and foreign exchange forward contracts that meet established accounting criteria under U.S. GAAP as either fair value or cash flow hedges. For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges, the effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative instruments is recorded, net of applicable taxes, in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss ("AOCL"), a component of Stockholders' Equity in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. When net income is affected by the variability of the underlying transaction, the applicable offsetting amount of the gain or loss from the derivative instrument deferred in AOCL is reclassified to net income and is reported as a component of the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as fair value hedges, the effective change in the fair value of the instrument, as well as the offsetting gain or loss on the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk, are recognized immediately in current-period earnings. For derivatives that are not designated or are de-designated as a hedging instrument, the gain or loss on the instrument is recognized in earnings in the period of change. Cash flows from derivative instruments designated in a qualifying hedging relationship are classified in the same category as the cash flows from the hedged items.

Certain interest rate contracts qualify for the "shortcut" method of accounting for hedges under U.S. GAAP. Under the shortcut method, the hedges are assumed to be perfectly effective and no ineffectiveness is recorded in earnings. For all other designated hedges, the Company assesses whether the derivative instrument is effective in offsetting the changes in fair value or variability of cash flows at the inception of the derivative contract. DPS measures hedge ineffectiveness on a quarterly basis throughout the designated period. Changes in the fair value of the derivative instrument that do not effectively offset changes in the fair value of the underlying hedged item throughout the designated hedge period are recorded in earnings each period.

If a fair value or cash flow hedge were to cease to qualify for hedge accounting, or were terminated, the derivatives would continue to be carried on the balance sheet at fair value until settled and hedge accounting would be discontinued prospectively. If the underlying hedged transaction ceases to exist, any associated amounts reported in AOCL would be reclassified to earnings at that time.

INTEREST RATES

Fair Value Hedges

The Company is exposed to the risk of changes in the fair value of certain fixed-rate debt attributable to changes in interest rates and manages these risks through the use of receive-fixed, pay-variable interest rate swaps. Any ineffectiveness is recorded as interest during the period incurred. The following table presents information regarding these interest rate swaps and the associated hedging relationships:

(1) In June 2017, and in connection with the partial redemption of the 2038 Notes, the Company modified and partially terminated the outstanding interest rate swap on the 2038 Notes with a notional amount of $100 million and maturing in May 2038. The modified interest rate swap has identical terms to the original interest rate swap, except for a reduced notional amount of $50 million. The Company received $13 million as settlement for the modification and partial termination of the swap.

As a result of this transaction, the Company de-designated the original hedging relationship. Under the original hedging relationship, the Company recorded $26 million as an increase to the carrying value of debt due to changes in the fair market value of the debt, pull to par adjustments and ineffectiveness. The Company recognized a $13 million gain into earnings, which reduced the loss on early extinguishment of debt, as part of the partial redemption of the 2038 Notes. The remaining $13 million increase in the carrying value of the outstanding 2038 Notes will be amortized into earnings over the remaining term of the 2038 Notes. The Company then designated the new interest rate swap contract as a fair value hedge with a notional amount of $50 million and maturing in May 2038 in order to effectively convert a portion of the outstanding 2038 Notes from fixed-rate debt to floating-rate debt. The Company uses regression analysis to assess the prospective and retrospective effectiveness of this hedging relationship.

(2) In October 2016, the Company de-designated the hedging relationships between the four outstanding interest rate swaps and the 2022 Notes. The Company will amortize $25 million into earnings over the remaining term of the 2022 Notes which represents the increase to the carrying value of the debt upon de-designation consisting of changes in fair market value of the debt, pull to par adjustments and ineffectiveness recorded under the previous hedging relationship. The Company recorded the change in the fair value of the interest rate swaps after de-designation into interest expense.

In January 2017, the Company re-designated the hedging relationships between the four outstanding interest rate swaps and the 2022 Notes, which were de-designated in 2016. The Company uses regression analysis to assess the prospective and retrospective effectiveness of these hedging relationships.

FOREIGN EXCHANGE

Cash Flow Hedges

The Company's Canadian and Mexican businesses purchase inventory through transactions denominated and settled in United States ("U.S.") dollars, a currency different from the functional currency of the those businesses. These inventory purchases are subject to exposure from movements in exchange rates. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, the Company utilized foreign exchange forward contracts designated as cash flow hedges to manage the exposures resulting from changes in these foreign currency exchange rates. The intent of these foreign exchange contracts is to provide predictability in the Company's overall cost structure. These foreign exchange contracts, carried at fair value, have maturities between one and twelve months as of June 30, 2017. The Company had outstanding foreign exchange forward contracts with notional amounts of $68 million and $7 million as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.

COMMODITIES

Economic Hedges

DPS centrally manages the exposure to volatility in the prices of certain commodities used in its production process and transportation through forward and future contracts. The intent of these contracts is to provide a certain level of predictability in the Company's overall cost structure. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, the Company held forward and future contracts that economically hedged certain of its risks. In these cases, a natural hedging relationship exists in which changes in the fair value of the instruments act as an economic offset to changes in the fair value of the underlying items. Changes in the fair value of these instruments are recorded in earnings throughout the term of the derivative instrument and are reported in the same line item of the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income as the hedged transaction. Unrealized gains and losses are recognized as a component of unallocated corporate costs until the Company's operating segments are affected by the completion of the underlying transaction, at which time the gain or loss is reflected as a component of the respective segment's operating profit ("SOP"). The total notional values of derivatives related to economic hedges of this type were $238 million and $296 million as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.

10. Fair Value

Under U.S. GAAP, fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date under current market conditions. U.S. GAAP provides a framework for measuring fair value and establishes a three-level hierarchy for fair value measurements based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability. The three-level hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurements is as follows:

Level 1 - Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 - Observable inputs such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets.

Level 3 - Valuations with one or more unobservable significant inputs that reflect the reporting entity's own assumptions.

RECURRING FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The following table presents the fair value hierarchy for those assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016:

	June 30, 2017
	Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets		Significant Other Observable Inputs		Significant Unobservable Inputs

The fair values of marketable securities are determined using quoted market prices from daily exchange traded markets based on the closing price as of the balance sheet date and are classified as Level 1. The fair values of commodity forward and future contracts, interest rate swap contracts and foreign currency forward contracts are determined based on inputs that are readily available in public markets or can be derived from information available in publicly quoted markets. The fair value of commodity forward and future contracts are valued using the market approach based on observable market transactions, primarily underlying commodities futures or physical index prices, at the balance sheet date. Interest rate swap contracts are valued using models based primarily on readily observable market parameters, such as London Interbank Offered Rate forward rates, for all substantial terms of the Company's contracts and credit risk of the counterparties. The fair value of foreign currency forward contracts are valued using quoted forward foreign exchange prices at the reporting date. Therefore, the Company has categorized these contracts as Level 2.

As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Company did not have any assets or liabilities measured on a recurring basis without observable market values that would require a high level of judgment to determine fair value (Level 3).

There were no transfers of financial instruments between the three levels of the fair value hierarchy during the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016.

Cash equivalents and restricted cash equivalents are recorded at cost, which approximates fair value.

(2) The fair value amounts of long term debt were based on current market rates available to the Company. The difference between the fair value and the carrying value represents the theoretical net premium or discount that would be paid or received to retire all debt and related unamortized costs to be incurred at such date. The carrying amount includes the unamortized premium or discounts and issuance costs on the issuance of debt and impact of interest rate swaps designated as fair value hedges and other hedge related adjustments.

During the six months endedJune 30, 2017, 614,761 shares subject to previously granted RSUs vested. A majority of these vested RSUs were net share settled. The Company withheld 193,343 shares based upon the Company's closing stock price on the vesting date to settle the employees' minimum statutory obligation for applicable income and other employment taxes. Subsequently, the Company remitted the required funds to the appropriate taxing authorities.

Total payments for the employees' tax obligations to the relevant taxing authorities were $20 million and $19 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, and are reflected as a financing activity within the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. These payments were used for tax withholdings related to the net share settlements of RSUs and dividend equivalent units ("DEUs"). These payments had the effect of share repurchases by the Company as they reduced the number of shares that would have otherwise been issued on the vesting date and were recorded as a reduction of equity.

12. Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share ("EPS") is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the assumed conversion of all dilutive securities. The following table presents the basic and diluted EPS and the Company's basic and diluted shares outstanding:

	For the Three Months Ended June 30,				For the Six Months Ended June 30,

Earnings per common share — basic	$	1.02	$	1.40	$	1.99	$	2.37
Diluted EPS:
Net income	$	188	$	260	$	365	$	442
Weighted average common shares outstanding	183.2		185.7		183.3		186.7

RSUs	0.4		0.6		0.5		0.7
PSUs	—		—		0.1		0.1
Weighted average common shares outstanding and common stock equivalents	183.7		186.5		184.1		187.7
Earnings per common share — diluted	$	1.02	$	1.39	$	1.98	$	2.35

Stock options, RSUs, PSUs and DEUs totaling 0.9 million and 0.7 million shares were excluded from the diluted weighted average shares outstanding for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively, as they were not dilutive. Stock options, RSUs, PSUs and DEUs totaling 0.6 million and 0.4 million shares were excluded from the diluted weighted average shares outstanding for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively, as they were not dilutive.

Under the terms of our RSU and PSU agreements, unvested RSU and PSU awards contain forfeitable rights to dividends and DEUs. Because the DEUs are forfeitable, they are defined as non-participating securities. As of June 30, 2017, there were 37,802 DEUs, which will vest at the time that the underlying RSU or PSU vests.

As of June 30, 2017, the Company's Board has authorized a total aggregate share repurchase plan of $5 billion. The Company repurchased and retired 1.6 million shares of common stock valued at approximately $149 million and 1.9 million shares of common stock valued at approximately $177 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively. The Company repurchased and retired 1.4 million shares of common stock valued at approximately $124 million and 3.4 million shares of common stock valued at approximately $303 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively. These amounts were recorded as a reduction of equity in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Changes in Stockholders' Equity. As of June 30, 2017, $955 million remains available for share repurchases under the Board's authorization.

15. Commitments and Contingencies

LEGAL MATTERS

The Company is occasionally subject to litigation or other legal proceedings. The Company does not believe that the outcome of these, or any other, pending legal matters, individually or collectively, will have a material adverse effect on the results of operations, financial condition or liquidity of the Company.

16. Segments

As of June 30, 2017 and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company's operating structure consisted of the following four operating segments upon consummation of the Bai Brands Merger:

• The Beverage Concentrates segment reflects sales of the Company's branded concentrates and syrup to third-party bottlers primarily in the U.S. and Canada. Most of the brands in this segment are carbonated soft drink brands.

• The Packaged Beverages Excluding Bai segment reflects sales in the U.S. and Canada from the manufacture and distribution of finished beverages and other products, including sales of the Company's own brands and third-party brands, through both the Direct Store Delivery system and the Warehouse Direct system.

• The Bai segment reflects sales of Bai Brands finished goods to third party distributors, primarily in the U.S., as net sales to the Packaged Beverages Excluding Bai segment are eliminated in consolidation. Refer to Note 2 for additional information regarding the impact of Bai Brands on the Company's net sales presented in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

• The Latin America Beverages segment reflects sales in Mexico, the Caribbean, and other international markets from the manufacture and distribution of concentrates, syrup and finished beverages.

The Company has determined that Packaged Beverages Excluding Bai and Bai, which have been identified as operating segments, meet the aggregation criteria under U.S. GAAP. As such, these segments have been aggregated into one reportable segment, Packaged Beverages, based on similarities among the operating units including economic characteristics, the nature of the products and services, the nature of the production processes, the types or class of customer for their products and services, the methods used to distribute their products and services and the nature of the regulatory environment.

As of December 31, 2016 and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company's operating structure consisted of the three operating segments identified prior to the Bai Brands Merger.

Segment results are based on management reports. Net sales and SOP are the significant financial measures used to assess the operating performance of the Company's operating segments. Intersegment sales are recorded at cost and are eliminated in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. “Unallocated corporate costs” are excluded from the Company's measurement of segment performance and include stock-based compensation expense, unrealized commodity derivative gains and losses, and certain general corporate expenses.

18. Subsequent Event

On July 6, 2017, the Company used a combination of the remaining proceeds from the June 2017 issuance of 2027 Notes and 2045 Notes and commercial paper to redeem the remainder of its 2018 Notes and retired, at a premium, an aggregate principal amount of approximately $301 million. The loss on early extinguishment of the 2018 Notes was approximately $13 million, due primarily to a make-whole provision in the indenture governing the 2018 Notes, and will be recorded during the third quarter of 2017.

ITEM 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

You should read the following discussion in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 (the "Annual Report").

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), including, in particular, statements about future events, future financial performance, plans, strategies, expectations, prospects, competitive environment, regulation, labor matters and availability of raw materials. Forward-looking statements include all statements that are not historical facts and can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as the words "may," "will," "expect," "anticipate," "believe," "estimate," "plan," "intend" or the negative of these terms or similar expressions in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. We have based these forward-looking statements on our current views with respect to future events and financial performance. Our actual financial performance could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements due to the inherent uncertainty of estimates, forecasts and projections, and our financial performance may be better or worse than anticipated. Given these uncertainties, you should not put undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. All of the forward-looking statements are qualified in their entirety by reference to the factors discussed under "Risk Factors" in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report. Forward-looking statements represent our estimates and assumptions only as of the date that they were made. We do not undertake any duty to update the forward-looking statements, and the estimates and assumptions associated with them, after the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, except to the extent required by applicable securities laws.

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains the names of some of our owned or licensed trademarks, trade names and service marks, which we refer to as our brands. All of the product names included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are either our registered trademarks or those of our licensors.

BAI BRANDS LLC MERGER

On January 31, 2017, we consummated our Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement") with Bai Brands LLC ("Bai Brands") and completed the acquisition of Bai Brands for a cash purchase price of $1.690 billion, subject to certain adjustments provided in the Merger Agreement (the "Merger" or the "Bai Brands Merger"). The results of Bai Brands are included in the Packaged Beverages reporting segment.

In discussing our results, we may use the terms "acquired" and "organic". "Acquired" represents the incremental impact to our results due to the Bai Brands Merger, which primarily reflects sales of Bai Brands finished goods to third party distributors. "Organic" represents the incremental impact to our results from our pre-existing business prior to the Bai Brands Merger.

OVERVIEW

We are a leading integrated brand owner, manufacturer and distributor of non-alcoholic beverages in the United States ("U.S."), Canada and Mexico with a diverse portfolio of flavored (non-cola) carbonated soft drinks ("CSDs") and non-carbonated beverages ("NCBs"), including ready-to-drink teas, juices, juice drinks, water and mixers. Our brand portfolio includes popular CSD brands such as Dr Pepper, Canada Dry, Peñafiel, Squirt, 7UP, Crush, A&W, Sunkist soda and Schweppes, and NCB brands such as Snapple, Hawaiian Punch, Mott's, Clamato, Bai, Mr & Mrs T mixers and Rose's. Our largest brand, Dr Pepper, is a leading flavored CSD in the U.S. as reported by Information Resources, Inc. We have some of the most recognized beverage brands in North America, with significant consumer awareness levels and long histories that evoke strong emotional connections with consumers.

We operate as an integrated brand owner, manufacturer and distributor through our three reporting segments. We believe our integrated business model strengthens our route-to-market and provides opportunities for net sales and profit growth through the alignment of the economic interests of our brand ownership and our manufacturing and distribution businesses through both our Direct Store Delivery ("DSD") system and our Warehouse Direct ("WD") delivery system. Our integrated business model enables us to be more flexible and responsive to the changing needs of our large retail customers and allows us to more fully leverage our scale and reduce costs by creating greater geographic manufacturing and distribution coverage.

The beverage market is subject to some seasonal variations. Our beverage sales are generally higher during the warmer months and also can be influenced by the timing of holidays and religious festivals as well as weather fluctuations.

47

BEVERAGE CONCENTRATES

Our Beverage Concentrates segment is principally a brand ownership business. In this segment we manufacture and sell beverage concentrates in the U.S. and Canada. Most of the brands in this segment are CSD brands. Key brands include Dr Pepper, Canada Dry, Crush, Schweppes, Sunkist soda, 7UP, A&W, Sun Drop, RC Cola, Squirt, Diet Rite, Vernors and the concentrate form of Hawaiian Punch.

Almost all of our beverage concentrates are manufactured at our plant in St. Louis, Missouri.

Beverage concentrates are shipped to third-party bottlers, as well as to our own manufacturing systems, who combine them with carbonation, water, sweeteners and other ingredients, package the combined product in PET containers, glass bottles and aluminum cans, and sell them as finished beverages to retailers. Beverage concentrates are also manufactured into syrup, which is shipped to fountain customers, such as fast food restaurants, who mix the syrup with water and carbonation to create a finished beverage at the point of sale to consumers. Dr Pepper represents most of our fountain channel volume. Concentrate prices historically have been reviewed and adjusted at least on an annual basis.

Our Beverage Concentrates brands are sold by our bottlers, including our own Packaged Beverages segment, through all major retail channels including supermarkets, fountains, mass merchandisers, club stores, vending machines, convenience stores, gas stations, small groceries, drug chains and dollar stores.

PACKAGED BEVERAGES

Our Packaged Beverages reporting segment is principally a brand ownership, manufacturing and distribution business. In this segment, we primarily manufacture and distribute packaged beverages and other products, including our brands, third-party owned brands and certain private label beverages, primarily in the U.S. and Canada. Key NCB brands in this segment include Snapple, Hawaiian Punch, Mott's, Clamato, Bai, Yoo-Hoo, Deja Blue, ReaLemon, Mr and Mrs T mixers, Nantucket Nectars, Mistic, Garden Cocktail and Rose's. Key CSD brands in this segment include 7UP, Dr Pepper, A&W, Canada Dry, Sunkist soda, Squirt, RC Cola, Vernors, Diet Rite and Sun Drop. 

Additionally, we distribute third-party brands such as Big Red, FIJI mineral water, AriZona tea, Vita Coco coconut water, BODYARMOR, Neuro drinks, Core Hydration, Sparkling Fruit₂O, Hydrive energy drinks and High-Brew. Although the majority of our Packaged Beverages' net sales relate to our brands, we also provide a route-to-market for these third party brand owners seeking effective distribution for their new and emerging brands. These brands give us exposure in certain markets to fast growing segments of the beverage industry with minimal capital investment. 

A portion of our sales also comes from bottling beverages and other products for private label owners or others, which is also referred to as contract manufacturing.

Our Packaged Beverages' products are manufactured in multiple facilities across the U.S. and are sold or distributed to retailers and their warehouses by our own distribution network or by third-party distributors. The raw materials used to manufacture our products include aluminum cans and ends, glass bottles, PET bottles and caps, paper products, sweeteners, juices, water and other ingredients.

We sell our Packaged Beverages' products both through our DSD system and our WD system, both of which include the sales to all major retail channels, including supermarkets, fountains, mass merchandisers, club stores, vending machines, convenience stores, gas stations, small groceries, drug chains and dollar stores.

LATIN AMERICA BEVERAGES

Our Latin America Beverages segment is a brand ownership, manufacturing and distribution business. This segment participates mainly in the carbonated mineral water, flavored CSD, bottled water and vegetable juice categories, with particular strength in carbonated mineral water, vegetable juice categories and grapefruit flavored CSDs. Key brands include Peñafiel, Squirt, Aguafiel, Clamato and Crush.

In Mexico, we manufacture and distribute our products through our bottling operations and third party bottlers and distributors. We sell our finished beverages through all major Mexican retail channels, including the "mom and pop" stores, supermarkets, hypermarkets, convenience stores and on-premise channels. In the Caribbean, we distribute our products through third-party bottlers and distributors. We have also begun to distribute certain products in other international jurisdictions through various third-party bottlers and distributors.

48

VOLUME

In evaluating our performance, we consider different volume measures depending on whether we sell beverage concentrates or finished beverages.

Beverage Concentrates Sales Volume

In our Beverage Concentrates segment, we measure our sales volume in two ways: (1) "concentrate case sales" and (2) "bottler case sales." The unit of measurement for both concentrate case sales and bottler case sales equals 288 fluid ounces of finished beverage, the equivalent of 24 twelve ounce servings.

Concentrate case sales represent units of measurement for concentrates sold by us to our bottlers and distributors. A concentrate case is the amount of concentrate needed to make one case of 288 fluid ounces of finished beverage. It does not include any other component of the finished beverage other than concentrate. Our net sales in our concentrate businesses are based on our sales of concentrate cases.

Although net sales in our concentrate businesses are based on concentrate case sales, we believe that bottler case sales are also a significant measure of our performance because they measure sales of packaged beverages into retail channels.

Packaged Beverages Sales Volume

In our Packaged Beverages reporting segment, we measure volume as case sales to customers. A case sale represents a unit of measurement equal to 288 fluid ounces of packaged beverage sold by us. Case sales include both our owned brands and certain brands licensed to and/or distributed by us.

Volume in Bottler Case Sales

In addition to sales volume, we measure volume in bottler case sales ("volume (BCS)") as sales of packaged beverages, in equivalent 288 fluid ounce cases, sold by us and our bottling partners to retailers and independent distributors. Our contract manufacturing sales are not included or reported as part of volume (BCS).

Bottler case sales and concentrates and packaged beverage sales volumes are not equal during any given period due to changes in bottler concentrates inventory levels, which can be affected by seasonality, bottler inventory and manufacturing practices and the timing of price increases and new product introductions.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY - FINANCIAL OVERVIEW AND RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

• Net income decreased $72 million driven by the loss on early extinguishment of debt as we completed a tender offer during the three months ended June 30, 2017, the impact of the Bai Brands Merger and the unfavorable comparison to a gain on the extinguishment of a multi-employer pension plan withdrawal liability recorded in the prior year.

• On January 31, 2017, we completed the Bai Brands Merger for a purchase price of $1.69 billion. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, the primary impacts of the Bai Brands Merger decreased diluted earnings per share in total by $0.09 and $0.14, respectively.

The drivers of this change include:

◦ the ongoing operations of Bai Brands, which decreased diluted earnings per share by $0.03 and $0.09 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively;

◦ the interest expense associated with the financing to complete the Bai Brands Merger, which decreased diluted earnings per share by $0.05 and $0.08 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively;

◦ the associated transaction and integration expenses, which decreased diluted earnings per share by $0.01 and $0.07 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively; and

◦ the gain on the step-acquisition of Bai Brands, which increased diluted earnings per share by $0.10 for the six months ended June 30, 2017.

50

The impact of the ongoing operations of Bai Brands includes the incremental profit margin benefit we experienced in the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 as the brand owner for Bai Brands, the acquired Bai Brands shipments to third parties since the Merger and any associated purchase accounting adjustments, partially offset by the $9 million initial profit in stock adjustment recorded during the first quarter of 2017 related to Bai Brands inventories.

• In June 2017, we completed a tender offer on a portion of our 7.45% senior notes due May 1, 2038 (the "2038 Notes") and 6.82% senior notes due May 1, 2018 (the "2018 Notes") and retired, at a premium, an aggregate principal amount of $125 million of the 2038 Notes and $63 million of the 2018 Notes. The loss on early extinguishment of the 2038 and 2018 Notes was $49 million, which decreased diluted earnings per share by $0.18 for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively.

• During the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, we repurchased 1.6 million and 1.9 million shares of our common stock valued at approximately $149 million and $177 million, respectively.

• During July 2017, we completed a redemption of the remainder of our 2018 Notes and retired, at a premium, an aggregate principal amount of approximately $301 million. The loss on early extinguishment of the 2018 Notes will be approximately $13 million, due primarily to a make-whole provision in the indenture governing the 2018 Notes, and will be recorded during the third quarter of 2017.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

We eliminate from our financial results all intercompany transactions between entities included in our consolidated financial statements and the intercompany transactions with our equity method investees.

Volume (BCS).Volume (BCS) increased 3% for the three months ended June 30, 2017 compared with the three months ended June 30, 2016. In the U.S. and Canada, volume grew 3%, and in Mexico and the Caribbean, volume increased 6%, compared with the year ago period. Branded CSD volumes grew 3% and NCB volumes increased 5% in the current period.

In branded CSDs, Dr Pepper grew 2% driven by increases in regular and diet, primarily in our fountain business, partially offset by declines in TEN. Peñafiel increased 8% as a result of product and package innovation and distribution gains in our Latin America Beverages segment. Canada Dry increased 6% due to continued growth in the ginger ale and sparkling water categories. Squirt increased 7%. 7UP increased 5%, growing both in the U.S. and the Caribbean. Schweppes also grew by 4% due to continued growth in the ginger ale and sparkling water categories. These increases were partially offset by other CSD brands, which were 1% lower, led by the loss of distribution of Rockstar, compared to the year ago period. A&W was flat compared to the prior year period.

51

In branded NCBs, Bai increased 118% driven by the acquired Bai Brands shipments to third party distributors since the Merger and continued growth in our existing distribution as a result of distribution gains and product innovation. Our growth allied brands gained 45% due primarily to distribution gains for BODYARMOR, Core and Fiji, and product innovation for BODYARMOR. Mott's increased 2% driven by our sauce products, while Clamato increased 3% compared with the year ago period. These increases were partially offset by Snapple, which declined 1% as strong shipments for a promotional event at a large retailer are expected to sell through in the third quarter of 2017. Our other NCB brands were 4% lower compared to the prior period.

Net Sales.Net sales increased $102 million, or approximately 6%, for the three months ended June 30, 2017 compared with the three months ended June 30, 2016. The primary factors of the increase in net sales included:

• Increase in shipments, excluding the loss of the Rockstar distribution, raised net sales by 3.5%;

• Product, package and segment mix, which increased net sales by 1.5%;

• $19 million of acquired Bai Brands shipments to third parties since the Bai Brands Merger, which increased net sales by 1.0%;

• Lower discounts as a primary result of a favorable comparison of the annual true-up of our estimated customer incentive liability, which increased net sales by 0.5%; and

• The loss of the Rockstar distribution, which lowered net sales by 0.5%.

Gross Profit.Gross profit increased $54 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 compared with the three months ended June 30, 2016. Gross margin of 60.0% for the three months ended June 30, 2017 was lower than the 60.5% gross margin for the three months ended June 30, 2016. The primary drivers of the change in gross margin for the three months ended June 30, 2017 included:

• Unfavorable comparison of $19 million in our mark-to-market activity on commodity derivative contracts, which reduced our gross margin by 1.20%;

• Higher commodity costs, led by packaging, and net of the change in our LIFO inventory provision, which lowered our gross margin by 0.40%;

• Other manufacturing costs, which lowered our gross margin by 0.40%;

• Unfavorable foreign currency effects, which decreased our gross margin by 0.10%;

• Product, package and segment mix, which reduced our gross margin by 0.10%;

• Incremental profit margin benefit we experienced as a result of becoming the brand owner for Bai Brands and the acquired Bai Brands shipments to third parties since the Bai Brands Merger, which increased our gross margin by 1.25%;

• Lower discounts as a primary result of a favorable comparison of the annual true-up of our estimated customer incentive liability, which raised our gross margin by 0.30%; and

• Ongoing productivity improvements, which increased our gross margin by 0.20%.

The unfavorable mark-to-market activity on commodity derivative contracts within cost of sales, which is included in unallocated corporate costs, for the three months ended June 30, 2017 was $6 million in unrealized losses versus $13 million in unrealized gains in the year ago period.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses increased $93 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 compared with the three months ended June 30, 2016. The primary driver of the increase in SG&A expenses was the impact of the Bai Brands Merger, which includes the $40 million of acquired operating costs, primarily $20 million in marketing investments as well as people costs, and $1 million in transaction expenses. Other drivers of the increase include an $18 million unfavorable comparison in the mark-to-market activity on commodity derivative contracts, a $16 million increase in planned organic marketing investments, and higher people costs, driven by inflationary increases and additional frontline labor investment.

The unfavorable mark-to-market activity on commodity derivative contracts within SG&A expenses, which is included in unallocated corporate costs, for the three months ended June 30, 2017 was $6 million in unrealized losses versus $12 million in unrealized gains in the year ago period.

52

Income from Operations.Income from operations decreased $39 million to $373 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 due to the increase in SG&A expenses partially offset by an increase in gross profit.

Interest Expense.Interest expense increased $11 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 compared with the three months ended June 30, 2016 due primarily to the higher average debt balance associated with the senior unsecured notes issued in the fourth quarter of 2016 to fund the Bai Brands Merger. This increase was partially offset by interest savings associated with the partial redemption of the 2018 Notes during the fourth quarter of 2016, which were effectively refinanced by the issuance of our 2.55% senior notes due September 15, 2026 (the "2026 Notes") in September 2016.

Loss on Early Extinguishment of Debt. In June 2017, we recognized a $49 million loss on early extinguishment of debt as we completed a tender offer on a portion of our 2038 Notes and our 2018 Notes and retired, at a premium, an aggregate principal amount of $125 million of the 2038 Notes and $63 million of the 2018 Notes. The $49 million loss on early extinguishment of debt was comprised of $62 million for the tender offer consideration, the early tender premium and write off of deferred financing costs, partially offset by a $13 million gain on the termination of interest rate swap related to the 2038 Notes.

Other Income, Net. Other income, net decreased $20 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 compared with the three months ended June 30, 2016 as a result of the unfavorable comparison to a $21 million gain on the extinguishment of a multi-employer pension plan withdrawal liability recorded in the prior year.

Effective Tax Rate.The effective tax rates for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 were 33.2% and 35.3%, respectively. For the three months ended June 30, 2017, the provision for income taxes included an income tax benefit of $6 million due primarily to an agreement for an improved filing group with a state taxing authority.

BEVERAGE CONCENTRATES

The following table details our Beverage Concentrates segment's net sales and SOP for the three months endedJune 30, 2017 and 2016:

	For the Three Months Ended
	June 30,				Dollar		Percentage
(in millions)	2017		2016		Change		Change
Net sales	$	356	$	342	$	14	4	%
SOP	237		230		7		3

Net Sales.Net sales increased $14 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017, compared with the three months ended June 30, 2016. The change was due to a 2% increase in concentrate case sales, higher pricing and lower discounts primarily as a result of a favorable comparison of the annual true-up of our estimated customer incentive liability. These increases were partially offset by unfavorable product mix.

SOP.SOP increased $7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017, compared with the three months ended June 30, 2016, driven primarily by an increase in net sales which was partially offset by higher SG&A expenses. The increase in SG&A expenses was the result of a $5 million increase in marketing investments driven by the result of an unfavorable comparison of the annual true-up of our estimated marketing liability and increases in other operating costs.

Volume (BCS).Volume (BCS) increased 2% for the three months ended June 30, 2017, compared with the three months ended June 30, 2016. Dr Pepper increased 2% driven by increases in regular and diet, primarily in our fountain business, partially offset by declines in TEN. Canada Dry and Schweppes had gains of 5% and 3%, respectively, due to continued growth in the ginger ale and sparkling water categories. 7UP grew 1% compared to the year ago period. These increases were partially offset by a 3% decrease in A&W and a 1% decline in our other brands in total as a result of discontinuing the distribution of Country Time.

PACKAGED BEVERAGES

The following table details our Packaged Beverages segment's net sales and SOP for the three months endedJune 30, 2017 and 2016:

	For the Three Months Ended
	June 30,				Dollar			Percentage
(in millions)	2017		2016		Change			Change
Net sales	$	1,302	$	1,225	$	77		6	%
SOP	196		209		(13		)	(6	)

Volume.Branded CSD volumes increased 2% for the three months ended June 30, 2017 compared with the three months ended June 30, 2016. Canada Dry increased 7% due to continued growth in the ginger ale category, while Dr Pepper increased 4% driven primarily by growth in regular. 7UP grew 3% compared to the prior year period. A&W and other CSD brands were each flat compared to the prior year period.

Branded NCB volumes increased 7% for the three months ended June 30, 2017 compared with the three months ended June 30, 2016. Bai increased 118% driven by the acquired Bai Brands shipments to third parties since the Bai Brands Merger and continued growth in our existing distribution as a result of distribution gains and product innovation. Our growth allied brands gained 45% due primarily to distribution gains for BODYARMOR, Fiji and Core, and product innovation for BODYARMOR. Snapple grew 2% due to product innovation. Clamato increased 5% compared to the prior year period, while Mott's grew 2% driven by our sauce products. These increases were partially offset by a 4% decline in other NCB brands, led by Rockstar due to the loss of distribution.

Contract manufacturing increased 2% for the three months ended June 30, 2017 compared with the three months ended June 30, 2016.

Net Sales.Net sales increased $77 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017, compared with the three months ended June 30, 2016. Net sales increased due to higher organic sales volumes, favorable product and package mix, as a result of our NCBs, including our allied brands, and $19 million in acquired Bai Brands shipments to third parties due to the Bai Brands Merger. These increases were partially offset by the loss of the Rockstar distribution.

54

SOP.SOP decreased $13 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017, compared with the three months ended June 30, 2016, as increases in SG&A expenses and cost of sales were partially offset by an increase in net sales.

Cost of sales increased as a result of higher costs associated with product and package mix, as a result of our NCBs, including our allied brands, the addition of costs associated with the acquired Bai Brands shipments to third parties since the Bai Brands Merger, higher costs associated with organic sales volume gains and an increase in other manufacturing costs. These increases were partially offset by the incremental profit margin benefit we experienced as a result of becoming the brand owner for Bai Brands.

SG&A expenses increased driven primarily by the Bai Brands Merger, which include the acquired operating costs, primarily marketing and people costs, as well as transaction expenses. Other drivers of the increase include higher people costs, driven by inflationary increases and additional frontline labor investment, and an $11 million, or 17%, increase in planned marketing investments.

LATIN AMERICA BEVERAGES

The following table details our Latin America Beverages segment's net sales and SOP for the three months endedJune 30, 2017 and 2016:

	For the Three Months Ended
	June 30,				Dollar		Percent
(in millions)	2017		2016		Change		Change
Net sales	$	139	$	128	$	11	9	%
SOP	24		24		—		—

Volume.Sales volume increased 6% for the three months ended June 30, 2017 compared with the three months ended June 30, 2016. The increase in sales volume was driven primarily by a 9% increase in Peñafiel as a result of product and package innovation and distribution gains. Squirt grew 6% primarily due to higher sales to third party bottlers, while our other brands increased 4%. These increases were partially offset by a 1% decline in Clamato.

Net Sales.Net sales increased $11 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017, compared with the three months ended June 30, 2016. Net sales increased as a result of increased sales volume and higher pricing, partially offset by unfavorable foreign currency translation of $3 million and unfavorable product and package mix.

SOP.SOP was flat for the three months ended June 30, 2017, compared with the three months ended June 30, 2016, driven by an increase in net sales fully offset by an increase in cost of sales and SG&A expenses. Cost of sales increased in the current period as a result of higher commodity costs, led by packaging, higher costs associated with increased sales volumes and unfavorable foreign currency effects. These increases were partially offset by lower costs associated with favorable product and package mix. SG&A expenses increased in the current period as a result of increased people costs and higher marketing investments.

Volume (BCS).Volume (BCS) increased 2% for the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared with the six months ended June 30, 2016. In the U.S. and Canada, volume grew 2%, and in Mexico and the Caribbean, volume increased 5%, compared with the year ago period. Branded CSD and NCB volumes both grew 2% in the current period.

In branded CSDs, Canada Dry increased 6% due to continued growth in the ginger ale and sparkling water categories. Dr Pepper grew 1% driven by increases in our fountain business partially offset by declines in TEN. Peñafiel increased 7% as a result of product and package innovation and distribution gains in our Latin America Beverages segment. Squirt increased 4%. Schweppes also grew by 6% due to continued growth in the ginger ale and sparkling water categories, while 7UP increased 2%. These increases were partially offset as A&W declined 1%, while our other CSD brands were 1% lower, led by the loss of distribution of Rockstar, compared to the year ago period.

In branded NCBs, Bai increased 102% driven by the acquired Bai Brands shipments to third parties since the Merger and continued growth in our existing distribution as a result of distribution gains and product innovation. Our growth allied brands gained 40% due primarily to distribution gains for BODYARMOR, Core and Fiji, and product innovation for BODYARMOR. Clamato increased 1% compared with the year ago period. These increases were partially offset by Snapple, which declined 3%. Our other NCB brands were 6% lower compared to the prior period, led by Hawaiian Punch. Mott's was flat compared to the prior period.

Net Sales.Net sales increased $125 million, or approximately 4%, for the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared with the six months ended June 30, 2016. The primary drivers of the increase in net sales included:

• Increase in shipments, excluding the loss of the Rockstar distribution, which grew net sales by 2.5%;

• Product, package and segment mix, which increased net sales by 1.0%;

• $30 million of acquired Bai Brands shipments to third parties since the Bai Brands Merger, which raised net sales by 1.0%;

• Lower discounts as a result of a favorable comparison of the annual true-up of our estimated customer incentive liability, which increased net sales by 0.5%;

• Unfavorable foreign currency translation of $15 million, which decreased net sales by 0.5%; and

• The loss of the Rockstar distribution, which lowered net sales by 0.5%.

56

Gross Profit. Gross profit increased $72 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared with the six months ended June 30, 2016. Gross margin was 59.9% for the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the gross margin of 60.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2016. The primary drivers of the change in gross margin included:

• Product, package and segment mix, which decreased our gross margin by 0.4%;

• Increase in our other manufacturing costs, which reduced our gross margin by 0.4%;

• Unfavorable comparison in our mark-to-market activity on commodity derivative contracts, which lowered our gross margin by 0.1%;

• Unfavorable foreign currency effects, which decreased our gross margin by 0.1%.

• Higher commodity costs, led by packaging, and net of the change in our LIFO inventory provision, which reduced our gross margin by 0.1%;

• Increase in our gross margin of 0.7% related to the incremental profit margin benefit we experienced as a result of becoming the brand owner for Bai Brands and the acquired Bai Brands shipments to third parties since the Bai Brands Merger, partially offset by the $9 million initial profit in stock adjustment recorded during the first quarter of 2017;

• Lower discounts as a primary result of a favorable comparison of the annual true-up of our estimated customer incentive liability, which raised our gross margin by 0.2%; and

• Ongoing productivity improvements, which increased our gross margin by 0.2%.

The unfavorable mark-to-market activity on commodity derivative contracts within cost of sales, which is included in unallocated corporate costs, for the six months ended June 30, 2017 was $12 million in unrealized gains versus $16 million in unrealized gains in the year ago period.

SG&A Expenses. SG&A expenses increased $168 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared with the six months ended June 30, 2016. The primary driver of the increase in SG&A expenses was the impact of the Bai Brands Merger, which includes $62 million of acquired operating costs, primarily $31 million of marketing investments as well as people costs, and $20 million in transaction expenses. Other drivers of the increase include a $36 million unfavorable comparison in the mark-to-market activity on commodity derivative contracts, higher people costs, driven by inflationary increases and additional frontline labor investment, and a $25 million increase in planned organic marketing investments.

The unfavorable mark-to-market activity on commodity derivative contracts within SG&A expenses, which is included in unallocated corporate costs, for the six months ended June 30, 2017 was $20 million in unrealized losses versus $16 million in unrealized gains in the year ago period.

Income from Operations. Income from operations decreased $67 million to $658 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 due primarily to the increase in SG&A expenses, partially offset by the increase in gross profit and the $28 million gain on the step-acquisition of Bai Brands. Refer to Note 2 of the Notes to our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the gain on the step-acquisition of Bai Brands.

Interest Expense. Interest expense increased $18 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared with the six months ended June 30, 2016 due primarily to the higher average debt balance associated with the senior unsecured notes issued in the fourth quarter of 2016 to fund the Bai Brands Merger. This increase was partially offset by interest savings associated with the partial redemption of the 2018 Notes during the fourth quarter of 2016, which were effectively refinanced by the issuance of our 2026 Notes in September 2016.

Loss on Early Extinguishment of Debt. In June 2017, we recognized a $49 million loss on early extinguishment of debt as we completed a tender offer on a portion of our 2038 Notes and our 2018 Notes and retired, at a premium, an aggregate principal amount of $125 million of the 2038 Notes and $63 million of the 2018 Notes. The $49 million loss on early extinguishment of debt was comprised of $62 million for the tender offer consideration, the early tender premium and write off of deferred financing costs, partially offset by a $13 million gain on the termination of interest rate swap related to the 2038 Notes.

Other Income, Net. Other income, net decreased $19 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared with the six months ended June 30, 2016 as a result of the unfavorable comparison to a $21 million gain on the extinguishment of a multi-employer pension plan withdrawal liability recorded in the prior year.

57

Effective Tax Rate.The effective tax rates for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 were 31.1% and 35.3%, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2017, the provision for income taxes included an income tax benefit of $6 million due primarily to an agreement for an improved filing group with a state taxing authority. The provision for income taxes also included an income tax benefit of $19 million due to the adoption of the new accounting standard for stock-based compensation. See Recently Adopted Provisions of U.S. GAAP within Note 1 of the Notes to our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.

Net Sales.Net sales increased $21 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared with the six months ended June 30, 2016. The increase was due to a 2% increase in concentrate case sales and higher pricing, partially offset by unfavorable product mix.

SOP. SOP increased $6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared with the six months ended June 30, 2016, primarily driven by an increase in net sales which was partially offset by higher SG&A expenses. The increase in SG&A expenses was primarily the result of a $12 million increase in marketing investments, including an unfavorable comparison of the annual true-up of our estimated marketing liability.

Volume (BCS).Volume (BCS) had a 1% increase for the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared with the six months ended June 30, 2016. Dr Pepper increased 1% compared to the year ago period driven by increases in our fountain business partially offset by declines in TEN. Canada Dry and Schweppes both had gains of 5% due to continued growth in the ginger ale and sparkling water categories. 7UP grew 1% compared to the year ago period. These increases were partially offset by a 2% decrease in A&W and a 2% decline in our other brands in total as a result of discontinuing the distribution of Country Time.

Canada Dry increased 7% due to continued growth in the ginger ale category, while 7UP grew 2%. Dr Pepper increased 2% as growth in regular was partially offset by declines in TEN. These increases were partially offset by a 1% decline in A&W compared to the prior period. Other CSD brands also decreased 1%.

Branded NCB volumes increased 4% for the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared with the six months ended June 30, 2016. Bai increased 102% driven by the acquired Bai Brands shipments to third parties since the Bai Brands Merger and continued growth in our existing distribution as a result of distribution gains and product innovation. Our growth allied brands gained 40% due primarily to distribution gains for BODYARMOR, Fiji and Core, and product innovation for BODYARMOR. Clamato increased 3%. These increases were partially offset as Snapple declined 2%. Other NCB brands were 6% lower, led by Hawaiian Punch and Rockstar. The decline in Rockstar is due to the loss of distribution. Mott's was flat compared to the prior period as growth in our sauce products were fully offset by declines in juice.

Contract manufacturing was flat for the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared with the six months ended June 30, 2016.

Net Sales.Net sales increased $98 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared with the six months ended June 30, 2016. Net sales increased due to favorable product and package mix, as a result of our NCBs, including our allied brands, $30 million in acquired Bai Brands shipments to third parties since the Bai Brands Merger and higher organic sales volumes. These increases were partially offset by the loss of the Rockstar distribution.

59

SOP. SOP decreased $47 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017, compared with the six months ended June 30, 2016 as increases in SG&A expenses and cost of sales were partially offset by an increase in net sales.

Cost of sales increased as a result of higher costs associated with product and package mix, as a result of our NCBs, including our allied brands, an increase in costs associated with the acquired Bai Brands shipments to third parties since the Bai Brands Merger, the $9 million initial profit in stock adjustment and an increase in other manufacturing costs. These increases were partially offset by the incremental profit margin benefit we experienced as a result of becoming the brand owner for Bai Brands.

SG&A expenses increased driven primarily by the Bai Brands Merger, which include the acquired operating costs, primarily marketing and people costs, as well as transaction expenses. Other drivers of the increase include higher people costs, driven by inflationary increases and additional frontline labor investment, and a $13 million increase in planned marketing investments.

LATIN AMERICA BEVERAGES

The following table details our Latin America Beverages segment's net sales and SOP for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016:

	For the Six Months Ended
	June 30,				Dollar			Percent
(in millions)	2017		2016		Change			Change
Net sales	$	237	$	231	$	6		3	%
SOP	35		39		(4		)	(10	)

Volume.Sales volume increased 5% for the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared with the six months ended June 30, 2016. The increase in sales volume was driven primarily by a 7% increase in Peñafiel as a result of product and package innovation and distribution gains. Squirt grew 3% due to higher sales to third party bottlers, while our other brands increased 3%. These increases were partially offset by a 1% decline in Clamato.

Net Sales.Net sales increased $6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared with the six months ended June 30, 2016. Net sales increased as a result of increased sales volume and higher pricing, partially offset by unfavorable foreign currency translation of $14 million and unfavorable product and package mix.

SOP.SOP decreased $4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared with the six months ended June 30, 2016, driven by an increase in cost of sales, partially offset by an increase in net sales and a reduction in SG&A expenses. Cost of sales increased compared to the prior period as a result of higher costs associated with increased sales volume, higher commodity costs, led by packaging, and an increase in other manufacturing costs, which included higher utility rates. These increases were partially offset by lower costs associated with product and package mix and ongoing productivity improvements. SG&A expenses decreased compared to the prior year period as a result of favorable foreign currency effects and the favorable comparison to the $4 million arbitration award related to our Mexican joint venture. These decreases were partially offset by higher people costs, higher marketing investments and increases in other operating costs. The impact of the favorable foreign currency effects, which decreased cost of sales and SG&A expenses, totaled $6 million.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

The process of preparing our consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the use of estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses. Critical accounting estimates are both fundamental to the portrayal of a company’s financial condition and results and require difficult, subjective or complex estimates and assessments. These estimates and judgments are based on historical experience, future expectations and other factors and assumptions we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. The most significant estimates and judgments are reviewed on an ongoing basis and revised when necessary.

60

Business Combinations

We record acquisitions using the purchase method of accounting. All of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recorded at fair value as of the acquisition date. The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair values of the net tangible and intangible assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. The application of the purchase method of accounting for business combinations requires management to make significant estimates and assumptions in the determination of the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, in order to properly allocate purchase price consideration between assets that are depreciated and amortized from goodwill. The fair value assigned to tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed are based on management’s estimates and assumptions, as well as other information compiled by management, including valuations that utilize customary valuation procedures and techniques. Significant assumptions and estimates include, but are not limited to, the cash flows that an asset is expected to generate in the future, the appropriate weighted-average cost of capital, and the cost savings expected to be derived from acquiring an asset, if applicable. If the actual results differ from the estimates and judgments used in these estimates, the amounts recorded in the financial statements may be exposed to potential impairment of the intangible assets and goodwill.

There have been no other changes to our critical accounting estimates, which are discussed in greater detail in our Annual Report.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Trends and Uncertainties Affecting Liquidity

Customer and consumer demand for our products may be impacted by various risk factors discussed under "Risk Factors" in Part I, Item 1A, of our Annual Report, including recession or other economic downturn in the U.S., Mexico and the Caribbean or Canada, which could result in a reduction in our sales volume. Similarly, disruptions in financial and credit markets may impact our ability to manage normal commercial relationships with our customers, suppliers and creditors. These disruptions could have a negative impact on the ability of our customers to timely pay their obligations to us, thus reducing our cash flow, or the ability of our vendors to timely supply materials.

We believe that the following events, trends and uncertainties may also impact liquidity:

• our redemption of the remaining 2018 Notes in July 2017;

• our continued repurchases of our outstanding common stock pursuant to our repurchase programs;

• our continued payment of dividends;

• our continued capital expenditures;

• seasonality of our operating cash flows could impact short-term liquidity;

• our ability to issue unsecured commercial paper notes ("Commercial Paper") on a private placement basis up to a maximum aggregate amount outstanding at any time of $500 million;

• our integration of Bai Brands following completion of the Bai Brands Merger;

• fluctuations in our tax obligations;

• future equity investments in allied brands; and

• future mergers or acquisitions of regional bottling companies, distributors and/or distribution rights to further extend our geographic coverage.

Financing Arrangements

The following descriptions represent our available financing arrangements as of June 30, 2017. As of June 30, 2017, we were in compliance with all covenant requirements for our senior unsecured notes, unsecured credit agreement and commercial paper program.

61

Commercial Paper Program

On December 10, 2010, we entered into a commercial paper program under which we may issue Commercial Paper on a private placement basis up to a maximum aggregate amount outstanding at any time of $500 million. The maturities of the Commercial Paper will vary, but may not exceed 364 days from the date of issuance. We issue Commercial Paper as needed for general corporate purposes. The program is supported by the Revolver (as defined below). As of June 30, 2017 and 2016, we had no Commercial Paper outstanding. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, we had weighted average Commercial Paper borrowings of $28 million and $17 million, respectively, with maturities of 90 days or less and a weighted average borrowing rate of 1.20% and 1.14%, respectively. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, we had weighted average commercial paper borrowings of $2 million and $1 million, respectively, with maturities of 90 days or less and a weighted average borrowing rate of 0.65% for each period.

Unsecured Credit Agreement

In March 2017, we entered into a new five-year unsecured credit agreement (the "Credit Agreement"), which provides for a $500 million revolving line of credit (the "Revolver"). This Credit Agreement and Revolver fully replaced our previous unsecured credit agreement and revolving line of credit, which was due to expire on September 25, 2017 and was terminated on March 16, 2017. There were no principal borrowings outstanding under the previous unsecured credit agreement upon termination.

Borrowings under the Revolver bear interest at a floating rate per annum based upon the alternate base rate ("ABR") or the Eurodollar rate, in each case plus an applicable margin which varies based upon our debt ratings. Rates range from 0.000% to 0.300% for the ABR loans and from 0.805% to 1.300% for Eurodollar loans. The ABR is defined as the greater of (a) JPMorgan Chase Bank's prime rate, (b) the Federal Reserve Bank of New York ("NYFRB") rate plus 0.500% and (c) the Adjusted LIBOR for a one month interest period plus 1.00%. The NYFRB rate is the greater of (a) the federal funds effective rate or (b) the overnight bank funding rate. The Adjusted LIBOR is the London interbank offered rate for dollars, adjusted for a statutory reserve rate set by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System of the United States of America.

Additionally, the Revolver is available for the issuance of letters of credit, not to exceed $75 million. Letters of credit will reduce, on a dollar for dollar basis, the amount available under the Revolver.

Refer to Note 6 of the Notes to our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for discussion of amounts utilized and available under the Revolver.

The Credit Agreement further provides that we may request at any time, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, that the aggregate commitments under the facility be increased by a total amount not to exceed $250 million.

The Credit Agreement's representations, warranties, covenants and events of default are generally customary for investment grade credit and include a financial covenant that requires us to maintain a ratio as provided therein of Consolidated Total Debt to Consolidated EBITDA of no more than 3.50 to 1.00, tested quarterly. During the twelve month period following a Material Acquisition thereunder, the ratio may increase to no more than 4.00 to 1.00. Upon the occurrence of an event of default, among other things, amounts outstanding may be accelerated and the commitments may be terminated. Our obligations are guaranteed by certain of our direct and indirect domestic subsidiaries. The Credit Agreement has a maturity date of March 16, 2022; however, with the consent of lenders holding more than 50% of the total commitments thereunder and subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, we may extend the maturity date for up to two additional one-year terms.

A facility fee is payable quarterly to the lenders on the unused portion of the commitments available under the Revolver equal to 0.07% to 0.20% per annum, depending upon our credit ratings.

Letters of Credit Facilities

We currently have letters of credit facilities available in addition to the portion of the Revolver reserved for issuance of letters of credit. Under these incremental letters of credit facilities, $120 million is available for the issuance of letters of credit, $60 million of which was utilized as of June 30, 2017 and $60 million of which remains available for use.

62

Shelf Registration Statement

On August 10, 2016, our Board of Directors (the "Board") authorized us to issue up to $2,000 million of securities from time to time. Subsequently, we filed a "well-known seasoned issuer" shelf registration statement (the "Shelf") with the SEC, effective September 2, 2016, which registered an indeterminate amount of securities for future sales. On September 16, 2016, we issued $400 million of 2026 Notes under the Shelf, leaving $1,600 million of securities authorized for issuance under the Shelf. On November 16, 2016, the Board replenished the authorized aggregate amount of securities available to be issued by an additional $400 million, which raised the full authorized amount to $2,000 million. On December 14, 2016, we issued an aggregate of $1,550 million of 2021, 2023, 2027 and 2046 Notes. As of June 30, 2017, $450 million remained authorized to be issued under the Shelf.

Debt Ratings

As of June 30, 2017, our credit ratings were as follows:

Rating Agency	Long-Term Debt Rating	Commercial Paper Rating	Outlook	Date of Last Change
Moody's	Baa1	P-2	Stable	May 18, 2011
S&P	BBB+	A-2	Stable	November 13, 2013

These debt and commercial paper ratings impact the interest we pay on our financing arrangements. A downgrade of one or both of our debt and commercial paper ratings could increase our interest expense and decrease the cash available to fund anticipated obligations.

Cash Management

We primarily fund our liquidity needs from cash flow from operations and cash on hand. We will use amounts available to us as discussed in "Financing Arrangements" as seasonality of our operating cash flows impact short-term liquidity, our senior unsecured notes mature, or as other events may occur as described in "Acquisitions and Investments."

Capital Expenditures

Capital expenditures were $41 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017. Capital expenditures were primarily related to machinery and equipment, IT investments and replacement of existing cold drink equipment. In 2017, we expect to incur annual capital expenditures, net of proceeds from disposals, in an amount approximately 3% of our net sales, which we expect to fund through cash provided by operating activities.

Acquisitions and Investments

We may make future equity investments in allied brands and/or acquisitions of regional bottling companies, distributors and/or distribution rights to further extend our geographic coverage. Any acquisitions may require additional funding for future capital expenditures and possibly restructuring expenses.

Liquidity

Based on our current and anticipated level of operations, we believe that our operating cash flows will be sufficient to meet our anticipated obligations for the next twelve months. To the extent that our operating cash flows are not sufficient to meet our liquidity needs, we may utilize cash on hand or amounts available under our financing arrangements, if necessary.

The following table summarizes our cash activity for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016:

	For the Six Months Ended
	June 30,
(in millions)	2017			2016
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	410		$	428
Net cash used in investing activities	(1,595		)	(79		)
Net cash used in financing activities	(220		)	(1,016		)

63

NET CASH PROVIDED BY OPERATING ACTIVITIES

Net cash provided by operating activities decreased $18 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2016, primarily due to changes in working capital.

NET CASH USED IN INVESTING ACTIVITIES

Cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2017 consisted primarily of cash paid in connection with our Bai Brands Merger of $1,550 million and purchases of property, plant and equipment of $41 million.

Cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2016 consisted primarily of purchases of property, plant and equipment of $68 million and an additional investment in BA Sports Nutrition, LLC of $6 million.

NET CASH USED IN FINANCING ACTIVITIES

Cash used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2017 consisted primarily of:

• the repayment of a portion of the Company's 2018 Notes and 2038 Notes of $248 million, which includes both the aggregate principal amounts of approximately $63 million of the 2018 Notes and $125 million of the 2038 Notes and the tender offer premium of $60 million;

• dividend payments of $204 million; and

• stock repurchases of $177 million; which was partially offset by

• the proceeds from the issuance of 2027 Notes and 2045 Notes, with an aggregate principal amount of $400 million and a premium of $16 million.

Net cash used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2016 consisted primarily of the repayment of the aggregate principal amount of the 2016 Notes of $500 million, stock repurchases of $303 million and dividend payments of $190 million.

Cash, Cash Equivalents, Restricted Cash and Restricted Cash Equivalents

Cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents decreased $1,400 million since December 31, 2016 to $387 million as of June 30, 2017 primarily driven by the funding of the Bai Brands Merger, returns to our stockholders, and capital expenditures, partially offset by operating cash flows.

Our cash balances are used to fund working capital requirements, scheduled debt and interest payments, capital expenditures, income tax obligations, dividend payments and repurchases of our common stock. Cash generated by our foreign operations is generally repatriated to the U.S. periodically as working capital funding requirements in those jurisdictions allow. Foreign cash balances were $44 million and $51 million as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. We accrue tax costs for repatriation, as applicable, as cash is generated in those foreign jurisdictions.

Total Shareholder Distributions
Our Board declared dividends aggregating $1.16 and $1.06 per share on outstanding common stock during the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, and we continued common stock repurchases based upon authorizations from our Board. Refer to Part II, Item 2 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information regarding these repurchases.
The following chart details these payments during the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016.

64

Contractual Commitments and Obligations

We enter into various contractual obligations that impact, or could impact, our liquidity. Based on our current and anticipated level of operations, we believe that our proceeds from operating cash flows will be sufficient to meet our anticipated obligations. To the extent that our operating cash flows are not sufficient to meet our liquidity needs, we may utilize cash on hand or amounts available under our financing arrangements, if necessary.

The following table summarizes our contractual obligations and contingencies, as of June 30, 2017, that have significantly changed from the amounts disclosed in our Annual Report:

	Payments Due in Year
(in millions)	Total		2017		2018		2019		2020		2021		After 2021

ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We are exposed to market risks arising from changes in market rates and prices, including movements in foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates and commodity prices. From time to time, we may enter into derivatives or other financial instruments to hedge or mitigate commercial risks. We do not enter into derivative instruments for speculation, investing or trading.

Foreign Exchange Risk

The majority of our net sales, expenses and capital purchases are transacted in U.S. dollars. However, we have exposure with respect to foreign exchange rate fluctuations. Our primary exposure to foreign exchange rates is the Canadian dollar and Mexican peso against the U.S. dollar. Exchange rate gains or losses related to foreign currency transactions are recognized as transaction gains or losses in our income statement as incurred. As of June 30, 2017, the impact to our income from operations of a 10% change (up or down) in exchange rates is estimated to be an increase or decrease of approximately $22 million on an annual basis.

We use derivative instruments such as foreign exchange forward contracts to manage a portion of our exposure to changes in foreign exchange rates. As of June 30, 2017, we had derivative contracts outstanding with a notional value of $68 million maturing at various dates through June 15, 2018.

Interest Rate Risk

We centrally manage our debt portfolio through the use of interest rate swaps and monitor our mix of fixed-rate and variable rate debt. As of June 30, 2017, the carrying value of our fixed-rate debt, excluding capital lease obligations, was $4,541 million, $1,070 million of which is designated in fair value hedging relationships and exposed to variability in interest rates.

The following table is an estimate of the impact to the interest rate swaps that could result from hypothetical interest rate changes during the term of the financial instruments, based on debt levels as of June 30, 2017:

Sensitivity Analysis
Hypothetical Change in Interest Rates(1)	Annual Impact to Interest Expense	Change in Fair Value(2)
1-percent decrease	$11 million decrease	$55 million increase
1-percent increase	$11 million increase	$51 million decrease

____________________________

(1) We pay an average floating rate, which fluctuates periodically, based on LIBOR and a credit spread, as a result of designated fair value hedges on certain debt instruments. See Note 7 of the Notes to our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.

(2) See Notes 4 and 8 of the Notes to our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for quantification of those derivative positions.

Commodity Risks

We are subject to market risks with respect to commodities because our ability to recover increased costs through higher pricing may be limited by the competitive environment in which we operate. Our principal commodities risks relate to our purchases of PET, aluminum, diesel fuel, corn (for high fructose corn syrup), apple juice concentrate, apples, sucrose and natural gas (for use in processing and packaging).

We utilize commodities forward and future contracts and supplier pricing agreements to hedge the risk of adverse movements in commodity prices for limited time periods for certain commodities. The fair market value of these contracts as of June 30, 2017 was a net asset of $12 million.

As of June 30, 2017, the impact of a 10% change (up or down) in market prices for these commodities where the risk of adverse movements has not been hedged is estimated to have $4 million impact to our income from operations for the remainder of 2017.

66

ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures

Based on evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has concluded that, as of June 30, 2017, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to (i) provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the Exchange Act filings is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the SEC's rules and forms, and (ii) ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act are accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

No change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act) occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2017 that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
