Examine the case study (Pepsi Co) given in the module section and submit your analysis.

Shareholders' Equity at PepsiCo Having just finished her afternoon run, Joan Dunkirk opened a bottle of Aquafina and took a sip to quench her thirst as she sat down to scan the financial news online. She noticed that PepsiCo had released a summary of 2018 results. She skimmed the summary and noted PepsiCo's expectations about dividends and share repurchases for 2019: The Company today announced a 3 percent increase in its annualized dividend per share to \$3.82 from $3.71 per share, effective with the dividend expected to be paid in June 2019. This represents the Company's 47 th consecutive annual dividend per share increase...For 2019, the Company expects...total cash returns to sharebolders of approximately $8 billion, comprised of dividends of approximately $5 billion and share repurchases of approximately $3 billion. 1 Dunkirk wasn't quite sure why companies would buy back their own stock. She bought stock when it was a good deal, making money on it by either collecting the dividends the company paid and/or holding onto the stock while the stock price increased and then selling it later. But she wasn't sure whether, or how, her logic translated to management's thinking when they decided to buy back a company's stock. Setting her bottle of water on the table, she stared at it. Something caught her eye; something she had never noticed before. "Copyright PepsiCo 2018." There it was, right below the main label. Dunkirk remembered her surprise when she first discovered that the company didn't just make Pepsi and Diet Pepsi. It made so many of the snacks and drinks she had grown up enjoying-Lays potato chips, Fritos corn chips, Quaker oatmeal, Gatorade sports drinks, Tropicana orange juice, Sabre hummus, and many, many more. And now, she realized that the company also made Aquafina. Surely the company's stock was a good investment with all those popular brand names in its portfolio. Perhaps the company was buying back its own stock to fuel future stock appreciation. She didn't know for sure. According to PepsiCo's summary announcement, share repurchases and payment of dividends were two ways companies could provide cash returns to shareholders. But what about stock dividends as opposed to cash dividends? And what about stock splits? Both stock dividends and stock splits increased the number of shares of stock a shareholder owned, so it seemed they would provide something of value to shareholders as well. But there was no mention of either of those in PepsiCo's summary of 2018 results. She continued skimming the summary of 2018 results: Reported net revenue increased 2 perrent.... Reported EPS was $8.782 She thought it was interesting that companies reported earnings per share (EPS) when they reported their financial results. There was no doubt that EPS was a number that got a lot of attention in the business press. But wouldn't EPS be affected by these decisions companies made related to their stock? She was now even more curious. Dunkirk wanted to know more about how a company's stock-related actions-like buying back shares of stock, paying dividends, issuing new shares of stock or different types of stock (if that was possible), or even executing a stock splitaffected the company's financial statements and its reported EPS. She decided to investigate. Company Background 3 PepsiCo was a global food and beverage company that owned beverage brands such as Pepsi-Cola, Gatorade, and Tropicana, and food brands such as Frito-Lay and Quaker. Revenues for 2018 totaled $64.7 billion. The company organized its operations into the following six divisions: - Frito-Lay North America (FLNA) - Quaker Foods North America (QFNA) - North America Beverages (NAB) - Latin America - Europe Sub-Saharan Africa (ESSA) - Asia, Middle East, and North Africa (AMENA) The first three divisions included the company's businesses in the Unites States and Canada-FLNA included the branded food and snack businesses; QFNA included the company's cereal, rice, pasta, and other branded food businesses; and NAB included the company's beverage businesses. These three segments accounted for 62% of 2018's total revenues. The last three divisions included the company's beverage, food, and snack businesses in the respective geographical regions. (Exhibit 1, panel A shows 2018 revenues by segment). In 2018, 57\% (43\%) of revenues came from inside (outside) the United States (Exhibit 1, panel B). Shareholders' Equity at PepsiCo Dunkirk began her targeted shareholders' equity investigation by obtaining copies of PepsiCo's financial statements from its 2018 10-K report. She obtained the Consolidated Balance Sheets (Exhibit 2), the Consolidated Statement of Income (Exhibit 3), and the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows (Exhibit 4). She was relatively familiar with those three financial statements. She noticed a fourth financial statement, the Consolidated Statement of Equity (Exhibit 5), that she was less familiar with. Given her interest in wanting to understand how transactions related to PepsiCo's stock affected the financial statements, however, she had a hunch that this financial statement would be important. Dunkirk knew that looking through a company's financial statements often led to additional questions that couldn't be answered from the financial statements alone. In those situations, she understood that the footnotes to the financial statements could be useful, as well as some basic internet research of relevant business articles and company press releases. First, she skimmed through the 10-K's pertinent financial statement footnotes to see if there were any she thought might be relevant to her understanding of stock-related transactions. Notes 10 and 11, in particular, came to her attention. Note 10 provided the details of the company's earnings per share calculation (Exhibit 6). "Note 11 - Preferred Stock" (Exhibit 7, panel A) sounded like it might be relevant as well, so she added it to her collection of information to review. Not understanding much about preferred stock, but wanting to learn more about it, she searched prior years' footnotes-the footnotes to the company's 2016 10-K offered more detail about the preferred stock, so she kept a copy of that information, too (Exhibit 7, panel B). She decided to skim the remainder of PepsiCo's 2018 10-K to see if there was any other potentially pertinent information that caught her eye. She ran across "Item 5, Market for Registrant's Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters, and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities" (Exhibit 8), which certainly pertained to stock-related issues. She set aside a copy of that. Also of interest was the supplemental earnings per share information she came across in "Item 7, Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" (Exhibit 9, panel A). She recalled seeing a news article touting PepsiCo's 2018 yearend earnings per share results (Exhibit 9, panel B) that did not highlight the same EPS figure as that presented in PepsiCo's income statement-she now had an inkling as to why that supplemental Item 7 EPS information was presented. In perusing some of the articles that had surfaced from her internet search, she came across one that was quite intriguing. It was just a short one, but the title had caught her attention- "What PepsiCo's Move from NYSE to Nasdaq Means for Investors"' (Exhibit 10). Companies moved from one stock exchange to another? Why? Did it really matter? And finally, in her search for some historical data on PepsiCo's common stock, she gathered some additional information about PepsiCo's dividend payment and share repurchases from all the company's 10-K reports since 2000 (Exhibit 11). The company's payment of cash dividends had steadily increased during that time period. The company also had bought back stock, every year except one, since 2000 , but the size of those repurchases had varied quite a bit. She hadn't noticed anything about stock dividends or stock splits as she skimmed through those 10K reports, but she wondered if the company had done either at any point in the past. With a bit more internet research, she found no evidence that the company had ever issued a stock dividend. She did find, however, that PepsiCo had split its stock five times in the past, although the last time it had done so was in 1996. She made a written note of these splits (Exhibit 12) and a mental note to come back to them at some point to consider what the financial statement effects might have been. After draining the last drop from her bottle of Aquafina, Dunkirk decided to switch to coffee and settle in. It would be a long, but interesting, evening.

Exhibit 10 Shareholders' Equity at PepsiCo News Article What PepsiCo's Move from NYSE to Nasdaq Means for Investors (selected excerpts) Lich Duprey, The Motley Fool December 18, 2017 It's not such a rare event that a company switches its stock listing from one stock exchange to another, but when a company the size of PepsiCo (NYSE: PEP) decides to abandon its nearly 100 year listing for one on a rival exchange, it is something of a big deal... The food and beverage giant says the reason behind it's jumping from the New York Stock Exchange to the Nasdaq exchange on Dec. 20 is that it will provide the company "with greater cost-effectiveness and access to Nasdaq's unique portfolio of tools and services to connect with our investors more efficiently." Big fees for listing on the Big Board Cost is one of the most cited reasons when companies leave the NYSE. It has a range of per-share fees that max out at $500,000 a year, while the Nasdaq exchange will be switching to a single, allinclusive fee starting Jan. 1. While the fees are also based on the number of shares outstanding, they range from $45,000 for the smallest companies to $155,000 for the largest, a pretty big savings even for a company like Pepsi, with over $63 billion in annual sales... The five biggest corporations in the U.S. are now Nasdaq-listed companies: Apple, Alphabet, Microsoft, Amazon.com, and Facebook. Not till Berkshire Hathaway in sixth place do we get an NYSE-listed stock. The human touch Although there are probably more similarities between the exchanges these days than differences, the contrast between them hinges on how orders are received and placed. The NYSE remains an auction market...It still relies on human floor traders and brokers to physically trade shares by comparing bid prices and ask prices, while the Nasdaq is a dealer's market, where brokers must either call the dealer or use the online execution system to enter a trade.

Exhibit 10 Shareholders' Equity at PepsiCo News Article What PepsiCo's Move from NYSE to Nasdaq Means for Investors (selected excerpts) Lich Duprey, The Motley Fool December 18, 2017 It's not such a rare event that a company switches its stock listing from one stock exchange to another, but when a company the size of PepsiCo (NYSE: PEP) decides to abandon its nearly 100 year listing for one on a rival exchange, it is something of a big deal... The food and beverage giant says the reason behind it's jumping from the New York Stock Exchange to the Nasdaq exchange on Dec. 20 is that it will provide the company "with greater cost-effectiveness and access to Nasdaq's unique portfolio of tools and services to connect with our investors more efficiently." Big fees for listing on the Big Board Cost is one of the most cited reasons when companies leave the NYSE. It has a range of per-share fees that max out at $500,000 a year, while the Nasdaq exchange will be switching to a single, allinclusive fee starting Jan. 1. While the fees are also based on the number of shares outstanding, they range from $45,000 for the smallest companies to $155,000 for the largest, a pretty big savings even for a company like Pepsi, with over $63 billion in annual sales... The five biggest corporations in the U.S. are now Nasdaq-listed companies: Apple, Alphabet, Microsoft, Amazon.com, and Facebook. Not till Berkshire Hathaway in sixth place do we get an NYSE-listed stock. The human touch Although there are probably more similarities between the exchanges these days than differences, the contrast between them hinges on how orders are received and placed. The NYSE remains an auction market...It still relies on human floor traders and brokers to physically trade shares by comparing bid prices and ask prices, while the Nasdaq is a dealer's market, where brokers must either call the dealer or use the online execution system to enter a trade.
