PEPSICO, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited; tabular dollars in millions; all per share amounts reflect
common per share amounts and assume dilution unless noted)
(1) General
Our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet at March 23, 2002 and the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income, Cash Flows and Comprehensive Income for the 12 weeks ended March 23, 2002 and March 24, 2001 have not been audited. These statements have been prepared on a basis that is substantially consistent with the accounting principles applied in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 29, 2001, except for the adoption of:
o Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. (SFAS) 142,Goodwill and Intangibles, and SFAS 144,Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-lived Assets, as described in Note 6; and
o the Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. (EITF) 01-9,Accounting for Consideration Given by a Vendor to a Customer or a Reseller of the Vendor's Products, as described in Note 7.
Our significant interim accounting policies include the recognition of marketing costs and promotional payments as expense in the year incurred generally in proportion to sales. Our interim accounting policies also include the recognition of taxes using an effective tax rate. The effective tax rate reflects our best estimate of tax expense for the current year which includes our estimate of the ultimate outcome of tax audits.
In our opinion, these financial statements include all normal and recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation. The results for the 12 weeks are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the year.
The financial statements include the consolidated accounts of PepsiCo, Inc. and its controlled affiliates. Investments in affiliates over which we exercise significant influence, but not control, are accounted for by the equity method. Our determination of control for majority owned affiliates considers the exercisability of the minority interest rights, and consolidation would be precluded to the extent that the minority interest holds substantive participating rights. Our share of the net income or loss of affiliates accounted for by the equity method is included in our consolidated net income. As a result of changes in the operations of our European snack joint venture (SVE), we have determined that, effective in 2002, consolidation is required. Therefore, SVE’s results of operations are consolidated in PepsiCo’s operations for the 12 weeks ended March 23, 2002.
(2) Merger-Related Costs
During the first quarter, we recognized integration and restructuring costs in connection with our merger with The Quaker Oats Company (Quaker) of $36 million ($30 million after-tax or $0.02 per share). We expect to incur additional costs to integrate the two companies.
-7-
Integration costs represent incremental one-time merger-related costs. Such costs include consulting fees and expenses, employee-related costs, information system integration costs and other costs associated with the integration of Quaker. The restructuring charges primarily reflect employee termination costs and asset impairment costs. Employee termination costs include retirement benefit and severance costs associated with change-in-control provisions of pre-merger employment contracts. As of March 23, 2002, an accrual has been recorded for costs associated with the termination of 675 employees, of which 470 have occurred. The remaining terminations are expected to be completed during 2002.

| (a) | Beginning in 2002, we have consolidated SVE, a Frito-Lay International affiliate, due to changes in SVE’s operations. Consolidation of SVE in 2001 would have increased net sales by $162 million and operating profit by $4 million for the 12 weeks ended March 24, 2001. There is no impact on net income or earnings per share. The consolidation of SVE did not have a material impact on our Consolidated Balance Sheet. |

========= =========
The above amounts are presented net of accumulated amortization of $1 billion at March 23, 2002 and December 29, 2001.
In 2002, we adopted SFAS 142 and SFAS 144. SFAS 142 eliminates the amortization of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets, addresses the amortization of intangible assets with finite lives and addresses impairment testing and recognition for goodwill and intangible assets. SFAS 144 establishes a single model for the impairment of long-lived assets and broadens the presentation of discontinued operations to include disposal of an individual business. As a result of adoption, amortization ceased for nonamortizable intangibles and the remaining useful lives of certain amortizable intangibles were reduced. No impairment charges resulted from the required impairment evaluations.
-10-
The following reflects the impact that SFAS 142 would have had on prior year net income and earnings per common share if adopted in 2001:

========= =========
We assess goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles for impairment annually unless events occur that require more frequent reviews. Long-lived assets, including amortizable intangibles, are tested for impairment if impairment triggers occur. Discounted cash flow analyses are used to assess nonamortizable intangible impairment while undiscounted cash flow analyses are used to assess long-lived asset impairment. If an assessment indicates impairment, the impaired asset is written down to its fair market value based on the best information available. Estimated fair market value is generally measured with discounted estimated future cash flows.
The useful lives of amortizable intangibles are evaluated periodically, and subsequent to impairment reviews, to determine whether revision is warranted. If cash flows related to a nonamortizable intangible are not expected to continue for the foreseeable future, a useful life would be assigned.
(7) Promotional Payments
EITF 01-9 addressed various issues related to the income statement classification of certain promotional payments, including consideration from a vendor to a reseller or another party that purchases the vendor’s products. As a result of adopting EITF 01-9 in 2002, we restated prior year net sales and selling, general and administrative expenses. The adoption of EITF 01-9 reduced our prior year first quarter net sales and selling, general and administrative expenses by $630 million.

The adoption of EITF 01-9 reduced our prior year first quarter net sales and selling, general and administrative expenses by $630 million.
Items Affecting Comparability
Comparable results reflect the adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. (SFAS) 142,Goodwill and Intangibles, and the consolidation of our European snack joint venture (SVE) as if they had occurred in 2001. In addition, merger-related costs and other impairment and restructuring charges are excluded from comparable results.

Adoption of SFAS 142 and SFAS 144
In 2002, we adopted SFAS 142 and SFAS 144. SFAS 142 eliminates the amortization of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets, addresses the amortization of intangible assets with finite lives and addresses impairment testing and recognition for goodwill and intangible assets. SFAS 144 establishes a single model for the impairment of long-lived assets and broadens the presentation of discontinued operations to include more disposal transactions. As a result of adoption, amortization ceased for nonamortizable intangibles and the remaining useful lives of certain amortizable intangibles were reduced. No impairment charges resulted from the required impairment evaluations.
We assess goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles for impairment annually unless events occur that require more frequent reviews. Long-lived assets, including amortizable intangibles, are tested for impairment if impairment triggers occur. Discounted cash flow analyses are used to assess nonamortizable intangible impairment while undiscounted cash flow analyses are used to assess long-lived asset impairment. If an assessment indicates impairment, the impaired asset is written down to its fair market value based on the best information available. Estimated fair market value is generally measured with discounted estimated future cash flows. Considerable management judgment is necessary to estimate undiscounted and discounted future cash flows. Assumptions used for these cash flows are consistent with internal forecasts.
The useful lives of amortizable intangibles are evaluated periodically, and subsequent to impairment reviews, to determine whether revision is warranted. If cash flows related to a nonamortizable intangible are not expected to continue for the foreseeable future, a useful life would be assigned.
Consolidation of Snack Ventures Europe
The financial statements include the consolidated accounts of PepsiCo, Inc. and its controlled affiliates. Investments in affiliates over which we exercise significant influence, but not control, are accounted for by the equity method. Our determination of control for majority owned affiliates considers the exercisability of the minority interest rights, and consolidation would be precluded to the extent that the minority interest holds substantive participating rights. Our share of the net income or loss of affiliates accounted for by the equity method is included in our consolidated net income. As a result of changes in the operations of SVE, we have determined that, effective in 2002, consolidation is required. Therefore, SVE’s results of operations are consolidated in PepsiCo’s results for the 12 weeks ended March 23, 2002.
Merger-Related Costs
During the first quarter, we recognized integration and restructuring costs in connection with our merger with The Quaker Oats Company (Quaker) of $36 million ($30 million after-tax or $0.02 per share).
-13-
Integration costs represent incremental one-time merger-related costs. Such costs include consulting fees and expenses, employee-related costs, information system integration costs and other costs associated with the integration of Quaker. The restructuring charges primarily reflect employee termination costs and asset impairment costs. Employee termination costs include retirement benefit and severance costs and expenses associated with change-in-control provisions of pre-merger employment contracts. As of March 23, 2002, an accrual has been recorded for costs associated with the termination of 675 employees, of which 470 have occurred. The remaining terminations are expected to be completed during 2002.
We have incurred $275 million in integration and restructuring costs since our merger with Quaker. Additional merger-related actions are expected to bring the total integration costs and restructuring charges to between $450 million and $550 million. Ongoing merger-related cost savings and revenue enhancement opportunities are expected to reach $400 million a year by 2005. We expect to realize synergies of $175 million in 2002. Cost savings in 2002 are expected to be reinvested in growth driving opportunities.
Market Risks
The macro-economic conditions in South America have negatively impacted our results. We have taken actions in these markets to respond to these conditions, including pricing strategies aimed at sustaining volume and, where possible, securing local currency supply alternatives. However, we expect that the macro-economic conditions, particularly in Argentina, will continue to adversely impact our results in the near term. The strength of the Mexican peso has favorably contributed to our results. However, if the Mexican peso weakens, our results, particularly at Frito-Lay International, could be significantly impacted.
Cautionary Statements
From time to time, in written reports and in oral statements, we discuss expectations regarding our future performance including synergies from the merger and the impact of global macroeconomic issues. These “forward-looking statements” are based on currently available competitive, financial and economic data and our operating plans. They are inherently uncertain, and investors must recognize that events could turn out to be significantly different from our expectations.
Analysis of Consolidated Operations
The year-over-year dollar change in unit net sales is referred to asvolume. Year-over-year price changes, including promotional and other incentive spending, and the impact of product, package and country sales mix changes are referred to aseffective net pricing.
Volume
Servings are based on U.S. Food and Drug Administration guidelines for single serving sizes of our products. For our snack and foods business, we have categorized our products as salty, sweet or other. Total servings increased 5% reflecting contributions from all our divisions.

Volume increased 6% led by a 6% increase in salty snacks and a 5% increase in sweet snacks. The salty snack growth was led by double-digit growth at Walkers and our Latin American joint venture, as well as single-digit growth at Sabritas. The sweet snack increase was primarily attributable to growth at Gamesa.
Comparable net sales increased 4% primarily driven by the volume growth at Walkers and effective net pricing at Gamesa. Net unfavorable foreign currency impact reduced net sales growth by 1.5 percentage points. A stronger Mexican peso, adding 3 percentage points to net sales growth, partially offset the overall unfavorable currency impact.
Comparable operating profit increased 13% led by solid results from Gamesa and Walkers. Net favorable foreign currency impact increased operating profit growth by 3.5 percentage points primarily reflecting a stronger Mexican peso which added 5 percentage points of growth.

CSE increased 4% driven by low double-digit growth in Mountain Dew, reflecting the second quarter 2001 introduction of Mountain Dew Code Red, strong double-digit growth in Aquafina and low single-digit growth in trademark Pepsi, reflecting the continued success of the 2001 Pepsi Twist introduction. BCS increased 4.5%. The CSE and BCS growth was favorably impacted by the Easter holiday which fell into the first quarter of 2002 versus the second quarter of 2001.
Net sales increased 7% primarily due to the increased volume and higher effective net pricing reflecting concentrate price increases partially offset by increased customer and bottler spending. Our new products, Mountain Dew Code Red, Pepsi Twist and AMP, drove the volume gains.
Comparable operating profit increased 15% primarily due to the higher effective net pricing, the increased volume and operating leverage.

Overall volume grew 4% reflecting strong growth of 20% from Gatorade products, offset by a volume decline of 2% from Tropicana products. The overall volume gain was driven by new product introductions for Gatorade Ice, Gatorade Extremo and Gatorade Frost product lines, gains in Dole juices and blends and the national launch of Propel fitness water. These gains were partially offset by double-digit declines in Tropicana Season’s Best, as Dole brand replaces Season’s Best chilled products.
Overall net sales increased 3% reflecting strong growth of 20% from Gatorade products, offset by a 4% decline from Tropicana products. The overall net increase is primarily due to the volume gains, partially offset by lower effective net pricing, as a result of increased promotional spending.
Comparable operating profit increased 3% reflecting the strength of Gatorade products, offset by the softness of Tropicana products. The net increase is primarily due to the volume gains and lower costs as a result of merger-related synergies. These increases were partially offset by the lower effective net pricing and increased advertising and marketing expenses supporting the new Gatorade products.

BCS increased 4%. This reflects broad-based increases led by high single-digit growth in Mexico and double-digit growth in China and Russia. These advances were partially offset by declines in Argentina due to macroeconomic conditions. Through February, total concentrate shipments to franchisees, including those bottlers in which we own an equity interest, grew 8%.
Net sales decreased nearly 2% due to the declining macroeconomics in Argentina and net unfavorable foreign currency impact, partially offset by the volume gains. The net unfavorable foreign currency impact, primarily in the euro, Egypt and Argentina, reduced the net sales growth by 3.5 percentage points.
Comparable operating profit increased 9% reflecting the volume gains, partially offset by the macroeconomic conditions in Argentina and a net unfavorable foreign currency impact. The net unfavorable foreign currency impact, primarily in Argentina and the euro, reduced the operating profit growth by 11 percentage points.

Canada Foods unit reported results included three additional weeks in 2002 contributing 3 percentage points to volume growth. Hot cereals volume growth was driven by new products.
Net sales increased 4% due to the Canada Foods unit reporting period change and the hot cereals volume growth, partially offset by higher promotional spending.

========= =========
Operating cash flow for the 12 weeks ended March 23, 2002 was $538 million compared with $12 million for the same period in 2001. This comparative increase primarily reflects our strong operating results and continued focus on working capital efficiencies.
As shown in our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows, our cash and cash equivalents for the 12 weeks ended March 23, 2002 increased $325 million to $1 billion reflecting our strong operating activities, partially offset by investing and financing activities. The cash used in investing activities reflects capital spending and net purchases of short-term investments. The cash used in financing activities reflects dividend payments, partially offset by proceeds from the exercise of stock options.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Our strong cash-generating capability and financial condition give us ready access to capital markets throughout the world. Our principle source of liquidity is operating cash flows, which are derived from net sales. Macroeconomic conditions may impact the demand for and pricing of our products. Our debt rating of A1 from Moody’s and A from Standard & Poor’s contributes to our accessibility to global capital markets. These ratings reflect our strong operating cash flows and include the impact of the cash flows and debt of our anchor bottlers. We have maintained these healthy ratings since 1989 demonstrating the stability of our operating cash flows.
Quaker integration and restructuring costs of $27 million were paid during the quarter ended March 23, 2002.

Independent Accountants' Review Report
The Board of Directors
PepsiCo, Inc.
We have reviewed the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet of PepsiCo, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of March 23, 2002 and the related Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income, Comprehensive Income and Cash Flows for the twelve weeks ended March 23, 2002 and March 24, 2001. These condensed consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of PepsiCo, Inc.‘s management.
We conducted our review in accordance with standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical review procedures to financial data and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the condensed consolidated financial statements referred to above for them to be in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
We have previously audited, in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, the Consolidated Balance Sheet of PepsiCo, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of December 29, 2001, and the related Consolidated Statements of Income, Common Shareholders’ Equity and Cash Flows for the year then ended not presented herein; and in our report dated February 6, 2002, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 29, 2001, is fairly presented, in all material respects, in relation to the Consolidated Balance Sheet from which it has been derived.
