MAY 22, 2002 ANNUAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS III PART I ITEM 1. BUSINESS INTRODUCTION The Pepsi Bottling Group, Inc. ("PBG") was incorporated in Delaware in January, 1999, as a wholly-owned subsidiary of PepsiCo, Inc. ("PepsiCo") to effect the separation of most of PepsiCo's company-owned bottling businesses. PBG became a publicly traded company on March 31, 1999. As of February 21, 2002, PepsiCo's ownership represented 37.9% of the outstanding common stock and 100% of the outstanding Class B common stock, together representing 42.9% of the voting power of all classes of PBG's voting stock. PepsiCo also owns 7.0% of the equity interest of Bottling Group, LLC, PBG's principal operating subsidiary. We refer to our publicly traded common stock as "Common Stock" and, together with our Class B common stock, as our "Capital Stock." When used in this Report, "PBG," "we," "us" and "our" each refers to The Pepsi Bottling Group, Inc. and, where appropriate, to Bottling Group, LLC, which we also refer to as "Bottling LLC." RECENT ACQUISITION On March 13, 2002, we acquired the operations and exclusive right to manufacture, sell and distribute Pepsi-Cola's international beverages in Turkey for a purchase price of approximately $100 million in cash and assumed debt. PRINCIPAL PRODUCTS PBG is the world's largest manufacturer, seller and distributor of Pepsi-Cola beverages. Pepsi-Cola beverages sold by us include PEPSI-COLA, DIET PEPSI, PEPSI ONE, PEPSI TWIST, MOUNTAIN DEW, MOUNTAIN DEW CODE RED, AMP, LIPTON BRISK, LIPTON'S ICED TEA, SLICE, MUG, AQUAFINA, STARBUCKS FRAPPUCCINO, FRUITWORKS, SIERRA MIST, DOLE and SOBE and, outside the U.S., 7UP, PEPSI MAX, MIRINDA and KAS. We have the exclusive right to manufacture, sell and distribute Pepsi-Cola beverages in all or a portion of 41 states, the District of Columbia, eight Canadian provinces, Spain, Greece and Russia. In some of our territories, we also have the right to manufacture, sell and distribute soft drink products of other companies, including DR PEPPER, 7UP and ALL SPORT in the U.S. Approximately 79% of our volume is sold in the United States, and the remaining 21% is sold in Canada, Spain, Greece and Russia. We have an extensive distribution system in the United States and Canada. In Russia, Spain and Greece, we use a combination of direct store distribution and distribution through wholesalers, depending on local marketplace considerations. RAW MATERIALS AND OTHER SUPPLIES PBG purchases the concentrates to manufacture Pepsi-Cola beverages and other soft drink products from PepsiCo and other soft-drink companies. In addition to concentrates, we purchase sweeteners, glass and plastic bottles, cans, closures, syrup containers, other packaging materials and carbon dioxide. We generally purchase our raw materials, other than concentrates, from multiple suppliers. PepsiCo acts as our agent for the purchase of such raw materials. The Pepsi beverage agreements provide that, with respect to the soft drink products of PepsiCo, all authorized containers, closures, cases, cartons and other packages and labels may be purchased only from manufacturers approved by PepsiCo. There are no materials or supplies used by PBG that are currently in short supply. The supply or cost of specific materials could be adversely affected by price changes, strikes, weather conditions, governmental controls or other factors. 2 PATENTS, TRADEMARKS, LICENSES AND FRANCHISES Our portfolio of beverage products includes some of the best recognized trademarks in the world and includes PEPSI-COLA, DIET PEPSI, PEPSI ONE, PEPSI TWIST, MOUNTAIN DEW, MOUNTAIN DEW CODE RED, AMP, LIPTON BRISK, LIPTON'S ICED TEA, SLICE, MUG, AQUAFINA, STARBUCKS FRAPPUCCINO, FRUITWORKS, SIERRA MIST, DOLE, SOBE and outside the U.S., 7UP, PEPSI MAX, MIRINDA and KAS. The majority of our volume is derived from brands licensed from PepsiCo or PepsiCo joint ventures. In some of our territories, we also have the right to manufacture, sell and distribute soft drink products of other companies, including DR PEPPER, 7UP and ALL SPORT in the U.S. PBG conducts its business primarily under agreements with PepsiCo. These agreements give us the exclusive right to market, distribute, and produce beverage products of PepsiCo in authorized containers in specified territories. Set forth below is a description of the Pepsi beverage agreements and other bottling agreements to which we are a party. Terms of the Master Bottling Agreement. The Master Bottling Agreement under which we manufacture, package, sell and distribute the cola beverages bearing the PEPSI-COLA and PEPSI trademarks was entered into in March of 1999. The Master Bottling Agreement gives us the exclusive and perpetual right to distribute cola beverages for sale in specified territories in authorized containers of the nature currently used by us. The Master Bottling Agreement provides that we will purchase our entire requirements of concentrates for the cola beverages from PepsiCo at prices, and on terms and conditions, determined from time to time by PepsiCo. PepsiCo may determine from time to time what types of containers to authorize for use by us. PepsiCo has no rights under the Master Bottling Agreement with respect to the prices at which we sell our products. Under the Master Bottling Agreement we are obligated to: (1) maintain such plant and equipment, staff, and distribution and vending facilities that are capable of manufacturing, packaging and distributing the cola beverages in sufficient quantities to fully meet the demand for these beverages in our territories; (2) undertake adequate quality control measures prescribed by PepsiCo; (3) push vigorously the sale of the cola beverages in our territories; (4) increase and fully meet the demand for the cola beverages in our territories; (5) use all approved means and spend such funds on advertising and other forms of marketing beverages as may be reasonably required to meet the objective; and (6) maintain such financial capacity as may be reasonably necessary to assure performance under the Master Bottling Agreement by us. The Master Bottling Agreement requires us to meet annually with PepsiCo to discuss plans for the ensuing year and the following two years. At such meetings, we are obligated to present plans that set out in reasonable detail our marketing plan, our management plan and advertising plan with respect to the cola beverages for the year. We must also present a financial plan showing that we have the financial capacity to perform our duties and obligations under the Master Bottling Agreement for that year, as well as sales, marketing, advertising and capital expenditure plans for the two years following such year. PepsiCo has the right to approve such plans, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. In 2001, PepsiCo approved our annual plan. 3 If we carry out our annual plan in all material respects, we will be deemed to have satisfied our obligations to push vigorously the sale of the cola beverages, increase and fully meet the demand for the cola beverages in our territories and maintain the financial capacity required under the Master Bottling Agreement. Failure to present a plan or carry out approved plans in all material respects would constitute an event of default that, if not cured within 120 days of notice of the failure, would give PepsiCo the right to terminate the Master Bottling Agreement. If we present a plan that PepsiCo does not approve, such failure shall constitute a primary consideration for determining whether we have satisfied our obligations to maintain our financial capacity, push vigorously the sale of the cola beverages and increase and fully meet the demand for the cola beverages in our territories. If we fail to carry out our annual plan in all material respects in any segment of our territory, whether defined geographically or by type of market or outlet, and if such failure is not cured within six months of notice of the failure, PepsiCo may reduce the territory covered by the Master Bottling Agreement by eliminating the territory, market or outlet with respect to which such failure has occurred. PepsiCo has no obligation to participate with us in advertising and marketing spending, but it may contribute to such expenditures and undertake independent advertising and marketing activities, as well as cooperative advertising and sales promotion programs that would require our cooperation and support. Although PepsiCo has advised us that it intends to continue to provide cooperative advertising funds, it is not obligated to do so under the Master Bottling Agreement. The Master Bottling Agreement provides that PepsiCo may in its sole discretion reformulate any of the cola beverages or discontinue them, with some limitations, so long as all cola beverages are not discontinued. PepsiCo may also introduce new beverages under the PEPSI-COLA trademarks or any modification thereof. If that occurs, we will be obligated to manufacture, package, distribute and sell such new beverages with the same obligations as then exist with respect to other cola beverages. We are prohibited from producing or handling cola products, other than those of PepsiCo, or products or packages that imitate, infringe or cause confusion with the products, containers or trademarks of PepsiCo. The Master Bottling Agreement also imposes requirements with respect to the use of PepsiCo's trademarks, authorized containers, packaging and labeling. If we acquire control, directly or indirectly, of any bottler of cola beverages, we must cause the acquired bottler to amend its bottling appointments for the cola beverages to conform to the terms of the Master Bottling Agreement. Under the Master Bottling Agreement, PepsiCo has agreed not to withhold approval for any acquisition of rights to manufacture and sell PEPSI trademarked cola beverages within a specific area -- currently representing approximately 13.2% of PepsiCo's U.S. bottling system in terms of volume -- if we have successfully negotiated the acquisition and, in PepsiCo's reasonable judgment, satisfactorily performed our obligations under the Master Bottling Agreement. We have agreed not to acquire or attempt to acquire any rights to manufacture and sell PEPSI trademarked cola beverages outside of that specific area without PepsiCo's prior written approval. The Master Bottling Agreement is perpetual, but may be terminated by PepsiCo in the event of our default. Events of default include: (1) our insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, receivership or the like; (2) any disposition of any voting securities of one of our bottling subsidiaries or substantially all of our bottling assets without the consent of PepsiCo; 4 (3) our entry into any business other than the business of manufacturing, selling or distributing non-alcoholic beverages or any business which is directly related and incidental to such beverage business; and (4) any material breach under the contract that remains uncured for 120 days after notice by PepsiCo. An event of default will also occur if any person or affiliated group acquires any contract, option, conversion privilege, or other right to acquire, directly or indirectly, beneficial ownership of more than 15% of any class or series of our voting securities without the consent of PepsiCo. As of February 21, 2002, no shareholder of PBG, other than PepsiCo, holds more than 7.0% of our Common Stock. We are prohibited from assigning, transferring or pledging the Master Bottling Agreement, or any interest therein, whether voluntarily, or by operation of law, including by merger or liquidation, without the prior consent of PepsiCo. The Master Bottling Agreement was entered into by us in the context of our separation from PepsiCo and, therefore, its provisions were not the result of arm's-length negotiations. Consequently, the agreement contains provisions that are less favorable to us than the exclusive bottling appointments for cola beverages currently in effect for independent bottlers in the United States. Terms of the Non-Cola Bottling Agreements. The beverage products covered by the non-cola bottling agreements are beverages licensed to us by PepsiCo, consisting of MOUNTAIN DEW, DIET MOUNTAIN DEW, MOUNTAIN DEW CODE RED, SLICE, SIERRA MIST, AQUAFINA, FRUITWORKS, MUG root beer and cream soda. The non-cola bottling agreements contain provisions that are similar to those contained in the Master Bottling Agreement with respect to pricing, territorial restrictions, authorized containers, planning, quality control, transfer restrictions, term, and related matters. Our non-cola bottling agreements will terminate if PepsiCo terminates our Master Bottling Agreement. The exclusivity provisions contained in the non-cola bottling agreements would prevent us from manufacturing, selling or distributing beverage products which imitate, infringe upon, or cause confusion with, the beverage products covered by the non-cola bottling agreements. PepsiCo may also elect to discontinue the manufacture, sale or distribution of a non-cola beverage and terminate the applicable non-cola bottling agreement upon six months notice to us. We also have agreements with PepsiCo granting us exclusive rights to distribute AMP and DOLE in all of our territories and SOBE in certain specified territories. The distribution agreements contain provisions generally similar to those in the Master Bottling Agreement as to use of trademarks, trade names, approved containers and labels and causes for termination. Some of these beverage agreements have limited terms and, in most instances, prohibit us from dealing in similar beverage products. Terms of the Master Syrup Agreement. The Master Syrup Agreement grants us the exclusive right to manufacture, sell and distribute fountain syrup to local customers in our territories. The Master Syrup Agreement also grants us the right to act as a manufacturing and delivery agent for national accounts within our territories that specifically request direct delivery without using a middleman. In addition, PepsiCo may appoint us to manufacture and deliver fountain syrup to national accounts that elect delivery through independent distributors. Under the Master Syrup Agreement, we will have the exclusive right to service fountain equipment for all of the national account customers within our territories. The Master Syrup Agreement provides that the determination of whether an account is local or national is at the sole discretion of PepsiCo. The Master Syrup Agreement contains provisions that are similar to those contained in the Master Bottling Agreement with respect to pricing, territorial restrictions with respect to local customers and national customers electing direct-to-store delivery only, planning, quality control, 5 transfer restrictions and related matters. The Master Syrup Agreement has an initial term of five years and is automatically renewable for additional five-year periods unless PepsiCo terminates it for cause. PepsiCo has the right to terminate the Master Syrup Agreement without cause at the conclusion of the initial five-year period or at any time during a renewal term upon twenty-four months notice. In the event PepsiCo terminates the Master Syrup Agreement without cause, PepsiCo is required to pay us the fair market value of our rights thereunder. Our Master Syrup Agreement will terminate if PepsiCo terminates our Master Bottling Agreement. Terms of Other U.S. Bottling Agreements. The bottling agreements between us and other licensors of beverage products, including Cadbury Schweppes plc -- for DR PEPPER, 7UP, SCHWEPPES and CANADA DRY, the Pepsi/Lipton Tea Partnership -- for LIPTON BRISK and LIPTON'S ICED TEA, the North American Coffee Partnership -- for STARBUCKS FRAPPUCCINO, and Monarch Company -- for ALL SPORT, contain provisions generally similar to those in the Master Bottling Agreement as to use of trademarks, trade names, approved containers and labels, sales of imitations, and causes for termination. Some of these beverage agreements have limited terms and, in most instances, prohibit us from dealing in similar beverage products. Terms of the Country Specific Bottling Agreements. The country specific bottling agreements contain provisions similar to those contained in the Master Bottling Agreement and the non-cola bottling agreements and, in Canada, the Master Syrup Agreement with respect to authorized containers, planning, quality control, transfer restrictions, causes for termination and related matters. These bottling agreements differ from the Master Bottling Agreement because, except for Canada, they include both fountain syrup and non-fountain beverages. These bottling agreements also differ from the Master Bottling Agreement with respect to term and contain certain provisions that have been modified to reflect the laws and regulations of the applicable country. For example, the bottling agreements in Spain do not contain a restriction on the sale and shipment of Pepsi-Cola beverages into our territory by others in response to unsolicited orders. 6 SEASONALITY Our peak season is the warm summer months beginning with Memorial Day and ending with Labor Day. Approximately 75% of our operating income is typically earned during the second and third quarters. Over 80% of cash flow from operations is typically generated in the third and fourth quarters. COMPETITION The carbonated soft drink market and the non-carbonated beverage market are highly competitive. Our competitors in these markets include bottlers and distributors of nationally advertised and marketed products, bottlers and distributors of regionally advertised and marketed products, as well as bottlers of private label soft drinks sold in chain stores. We compete primarily on the basis of advertising and marketing programs to create brand awareness, price and promotions, retail space management, customer service, consumer points of access, new products, packaging innovations and distribution methods. We believe that brand recognition, availability and consumer and customer goodwill are primary factors affecting our competitive position. GOVERNMENTAL REGULATION APPLICABLE TO PBG Our operations and properties are subject to regulation by various federal, state and local governmental entities and agencies as well as foreign government entities. As a producer of food products, we are subject to production, packaging, quality, labeling and distribution standards in each of the countries where we have operations, including, in the United States, those of the federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act. The operations of our production and distribution facilities are subject to the laws and regulations of, among other agencies, the Department of Transportation, and various federal, state and local occupational and environmental laws. These laws and regulations include, in the United States, the Occupational Safety and Health Act, the Clean Air Act, the Clean Water Act and laws relating to the operation, maintenance of and financial responsibility for, fuel storage tanks. We believe that our current legal, operational and environmental compliance programs adequately address such concerns and that we are in substantial compliance with applicable laws and regulations. We do not anticipate making any material expenditures in connection with environmental remediation and compliance. However, compliance with, or any violation of, future laws or regulations could require material expenditures by us or otherwise have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Bottle and Can Legislation In all but a few of our United States and Canadian markets, we offer our bottle and can beverage products in non-refillable containers. Legislation has been enacted in certain states and Canadian provinces where we operate that generally prohibits the sale of certain beverages unless a deposit or levy is charged for the container. These include Connecticut, Delaware, Maine, Massachusetts, Michigan, New York, Oregon, California, British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia and Quebec. Maine, Massachusetts and Michigan have statutes that require us to pay all or a portion of unclaimed container deposits to the state and California imposes a levy on beverage containers to fund a waste recovery system. In addition to the Canadian deposit legislation described above, Ontario, Canada, currently has a regulation requiring that 30% of all soft drinks sold in Ontario be bottled in refillable containers. This regulation is currently being reviewed by the Canadian Ministry of the Environment. The European Commission issued a packaging and packing waste directive that was incorporated into the national legislation of most member states. This has resulted in targets being set for the 7 recovery and recycling of household, commercial and industrial packaging waste and imposes substantial responsibilities upon bottlers and retailers for implementation. We are not aware of similar material legislation being proposed or enacted in any other areas served by us. We are unable to predict, however, whether such legislation will be enacted or what impact its enactment would have on our business, financial condition or results of operations. Soft Drink Excise Tax Legislation Specific soft drink excise taxes have been in place in certain states for several years. The states in which we operate that currently impose such a tax are West Virginia, Arkansas and Tennessee and, with respect to fountain syrup only, Washington. Value-added taxes on soft drinks vary in our territories located in Canada, Spain, Greece and Russia, but are consistent with the value-added tax rate for other consumer products. We are not aware of any material soft drink taxes that have been enacted in any other market served by us. We are unable to predict, however, whether such legislation will be enacted or what impact its enactment would have on our business, financial condition or results of operations. Trade Regulation As a manufacturer, seller and distributor of bottled and canned soft drink products of PepsiCo and other soft drink manufacturers in exclusive territories in the United States and internationally, we are subject to antitrust laws. Under the Soft Drink Interbrand Competition Act, soft drink bottlers operating in the United States, such as us, may have an exclusive right to manufacture, distribute and sell a soft drink product in a geographic territory if the soft drink product is in substantial and effective competition with other products of the same class in the same market or markets. We believe that there is such substantial and effective competition in each of the exclusive geographic territories in which we operate. California Carcinogen and Reproductive Toxin Legislation A California law requires that any person who exposes another to a carcinogen or a reproductive toxin must provide a warning to that effect. Because the law does not define quantitative thresholds below which a warning is not required, virtually all manufacturers of food products are confronted with the possibility of having to provide warnings due to the presence of trace amounts of defined substances. Regulations implementing the law exempt manufacturers from providing the required warning if it can be demonstrated that the defined substances occur naturally in the product or are present in municipal water used to manufacture the product. We have assessed the impact of the law and its implementing regulations on our beverage products and have concluded that none of our products currently require a warning under the law. We cannot predict whether or to what extent food industry efforts to minimize the law's impact on food products will succeed. We also cannot predict what impact, either in terms of direct costs or diminished sales, imposition of the law may have. EMPLOYEES As of December 29, 2001, we employed approximately 37,000 full-time workers, of whom approximately 30,000 were employed in the United States. Approximately 8,800 of our full-time workers in the United States are union members. We consider relations with our employees to be good and have not experienced significant interruptions of operations due to labor disagreements with the exception of a labor dispute at certain of our New Jersey facilities, which was successfully resolved on July 22, 2001. FINANCIAL INFORMATION ON INDUSTRY SEGMENTS AND GEOGRAPHIC AREAS 8 For financial information on industry segments and operations in geographic areas, see Note 15 to PBG's Consolidated Financial Statements, found on page 52 of our Annual Report to Shareholders for the year ended December 29, 2001, which is incorporated herein by reference and is included as Exhibit 13 hereto. ITEM 2. PROPERTIES We operate 70 soft drink production facilities worldwide, of which 62 are owned and 8 are leased. Of PBG's 328 distribution facilities, 264 are owned and 64 are leased. We believe that our bottling, canning and syrup filling lines and our distribution facilities are sufficient to meet present needs. We also lease headquarters office space in Somers, New York. We also own or lease and operate approximately 28,000 vehicles, including delivery trucks, delivery and transport tractors and trailers and other trucks and vans used in the sale and distribution of our soft drink products. We also own more than 1.2 million soft drink dispensing and vending machines. With a few exceptions, leases of plants in the United States and Canada are on a long-term basis, expiring at various times, with options to renew for additional periods. Most international plants are leased for varying and usually shorter periods, with or without renewal options. We believe that our properties are in good operating condition and are adequate to serve our current operational needs. ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS From time to time we are a party to various litigation matters incidental to the conduct of our business. There is no pending or, to PBG's best knowledge, threatened legal proceeding to which we are a party that, in the opinion of management, is likely to have a material adverse effect on our future financial results. ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SHAREHOLDERS (a) Special Meeting of Shareholders of PBG was held on November 27, 2001. (b) The only matter voted on was: Approval of an amendment to the Company's Certificate of Incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of Common Stock of the Company from 300,000,000 to 900,000,000.
