**NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**

***(UNAUDITED)***

**1. General** 

**ORGANIZATION**

References in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to "KDP", "we", "us", and "our", refer to Keurig Dr Pepper Inc. and all wholly-owned subsidiaries included in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Definitions of terms used in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are included within the Master Glossary.

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

**BASIS OF PRESENTATION**

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with 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 our consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in our Annual Report.

References to the "third quarter" indicate the quarterly periods ended September 30, 2025 and 2024.

**USE OF ESTIMATES**

The process of preparing our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the use of estimates and judgments that affect reported amounts. These estimates and judgments are based on historical experience, future expectations, and other factors and assumptions we believe 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**

We have reclassified certain current and prior period amounts within the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications had no impact on total cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, and restricted cash equivalents.

**RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS**

In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, *Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software*. The objective of ASU 2025-06 is to modernize the guidance to reflect changes in the software development environment over time. ASU 2025-06 is effective for public companies starting in annual periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. We are currently evaluating ASU 2025-06 and the impact to our consolidated financial statements.

**2. Acquisitions**

**JDE PEET'S ACQUISITION**

On August 24, 2025, we entered into the JDE Peet's Acquisition Agreement, pursuant to which KDP will commence a tender offer to acquire all of the issued ordinary shares, excluding ordinary shares in treasury, of JDE Peet's for a cash offer price of €31.85 per share, without interest. JDE Peet's is a global coffee and tea company, serving more than 100 markets, with a portfolio of leading brands including Jacobs, L'OR, and Peet's. The JDE Peet's Acquisition is expected to occur in the first six months of 2026 and is subject to certain regulatory approvals, as well as the acceptance of the offer by the shareholders of JDE Peet's.

**NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**

***(UNAUDITED, CONTINUED)***

In connection with the JDE Peet's Acquisition, we entered into the Bridge Credit Agreement, which provides for a 364-day senior unsecured bridge loan facility in an aggregate amount not to exceed €16.2 billion. Refer to Note 3 for additional information.

**DYLA ACQUISITION**

On June 2, 2025, we completed the acquisition of Dyla for aggregate consideration of $98 million. Dyla is a leading player in powdered drink mixes and liquid water enhancers. Prior to the acquisition, we held direct and indirect ownership interests in Dyla and accounted for the investment as an equity method investment. In order to complete the acquisition of Dyla, net of our previous ownership interest, we paid $69 million in cash, and approximately $3 million of cash was held back and placed in escrow, which was released in the third quarter of 2025.

Our allocation of consideration exchanged to the net tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed was based on estimated fair values as of June 2, 2025, and the consideration was primarily allocated to intangible assets and goodwill. In the third quarter of 2025, we finalized our allocation of consideration exchanged in the Dyla acquisition, with no significant measurement period adjustments recorded.

**GHOST TRANSACTIONS**

In the first quarter of 2025, we finalized our allocation of consideration to the net tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the GHOST Transactions based on estimated fair values as of December 31, 2024, with no significant measurement period adjustments recorded.

**KALIL ACQUISITION**

In the third quarter of 2025, we finalized our allocation of consideration to the net tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the Kalil Acquisition based on estimated fair values as of August 9, 2024, with no significant measurement period adjustments recorded.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1)The carrying amount includes unamortized discounts, debt issuance costs, and fair value adjustments related to the DPS Merger.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2)Our floating rate notes bear interest at a rate equal to Compounded SOFR (as defined in the respective supplemental indenture) plus a spread of 0.580% and 0.880% for the 2026-B Notes and the 2027-B Notes, respectively.

On May 5, 2025, we completed the issuance of the 2026-B Notes, 2028 Notes, 2030-B Notes, and 2035 Notes, with an aggregate principal amount of $2 billion. The discount associated with these notes was approximately $4 million, and we incurred $10 million in debt issuance costs. The proceeds from the issuance were used for the repayment of outstanding commercial paper borrowings.

The 2025 Merger Notes were repaid at maturity using proceeds from commercial paper.

**VARIABLE-RATE BORROWING ARRANGEMENTS**

***Bridge Credit Agreement***

In connection and concurrently with the entry into the JDE Peet's Acquisition Agreement, we entered into the Bridge Credit Agreement on August 24, 2025, among KDP, as borrower, with the lenders party thereto, and Morgan Stanley Senior Funding, Inc., as administrative agent. We incurred approximately $93 million in deferred financing fees related to the issuance, which were capitalized and are being amortized to Interest expense, net over the term of the Bridge Credit Agreement. We will owe additional fees of approximately €36 million on December 22, 2025, to the extent that the Bridge Credit Agreement has not been terminated or the amounts available under the facility remain undrawn.

**NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**

***(UNAUDITED, CONTINUED)***

The Bridge Credit Agreement provides for a 364-day senior unsecured bridge loan facility in an aggregate amount not to exceed €16.2 billion. The proceeds of the Bridge Credit Agreement may be used to fund the JDE Peet's Acquisition. Obligations under the Bridge Credit Agreement are guaranteed by our subsidiaries that guarantee our revolving credit facility and outstanding senior notes.

Borrowings under the Bridge Credit Agreement will bear interest at a rate per annum equal to EURIBOR plus a margin of 0.750% to 2.500% depending on the rating of certain of our index debt and the period for which the bridge loans remain outstanding after the initial funding date. The undrawn commitments under the bridge loan facility will be subject to a commitment fee commencing on the 121st day after the date the Bridge Credit Agreement became effective at a per annum rate of 0.060% to 0.200% depending on the rating of certain of our index debt. The Bridge Credit Agreement contains customary representations and warranties for investment grade financings. The Bridge Credit Agreement also contains (i) certain affirmative covenants, including those that impose reporting and/or operating obligations on us and our subsidiaries, (ii) certain negative covenants that generally limit, subject to exceptions, us and our subsidiaries from taking certain actions, including incurring liens and consummating certain fundamental changes, (iii) financial covenants in the form of a minimum interest coverage ratio of 3.25 to 1.00 that will apply after the initial funding date and a maximum total net leverage ratio of 6.25 to 1.00 that will apply after the initial funding date only upon a downgrade in the ratings of certain of our index debt, and (iv) events of default customary for financings of this type.

As of September 30, 2025, the full amount of this facility remains available and undrawn.

***Term Loan Agreement***

On January 31, 2025, we repaid the amount outstanding under the Term Loan Agreement using proceeds from commercial paper. On May 7, 2025, we terminated our Term Loan Agreement. We had no outstanding loan balances as of the termination date.

***Revolving Credit Agreement***

On March 31, 2025, we entered into the 2025 Revolving Credit Agreement among KDP, as borrower, the lenders and issuing banks party thereto, and JPMorgan Chase, Bank, N.A., as administrative agent. We incurred approximately $4 million in deferred financing fees related to the issuance. On September 30, 2025, the 2025 Revolving Credit Agreement was amended to increase the capacity to $4.3 billion.

The following table summarizes information about the 2025 Revolving Credit Agreement:

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1)The 2025 Revolving Credit Agreement has a $200 million letter of credit limit, with none utilized as of September 30, 2025.

The 2025 Revolving Credit Agreement replaced our previous revolving credit agreement.

Borrowings under the 2025 Revolving Credit Agreement will bear interest at a rate per annum equal to, at our option, the term SOFR rate plus a margin of 0.750% to 1.250% or the alternative base rate plus a margin of zero to 0.250%, in each case, depending on the rating of certain of our index debt. The 2025 Revolving Credit Agreement contains customary representations and warranties for investment grade financings. The 2025 Revolving Credit Agreement also contains (i) certain customary affirmative covenants, including those that impose certain reporting and/or performance obligations on us and our subsidiaries, (ii) certain customary negative covenants that generally limit, subject to various exceptions, us and our subsidiaries from taking certain actions, including, without limitation, incurring liens and consummating certain fundamental changes, (iii) a financial covenant in the form of a minimum interest coverage ratio of 3.25 to 1.00, and (iv) customary events of default (including a change of control) for financings of this type.

As of September 30, 2025, we were in compliance with our minimum interest coverage ratio with respect to the 2025 Revolving Credit Agreement.

**5. Derivatives** 

We are exposed to market risks arising from adverse changes in interest rates, FX rates, and commodity prices. We manage these risks through a variety of strategies, including the use of interest rate contracts, FX forward contracts, commodity forward, future, swap, and option contracts, and supplier pricing agreements. We do not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.

All derivative instruments are recorded on a gross basis, including those subject to master netting arrangements.

We formally designate and account for certain interest rate contracts and FX forward contracts that meet established accounting criteria under U.S. GAAP as cash flow hedges. For such contracts, the effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative instruments is recorded, net of applicable taxes, in AOCI. 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 AOCI is reclassified to net income. 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. If a 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 AOCI would be reclassified to earnings at that time.

For derivatives that are not designated or for which the designated hedging relationship is discontinued, the gain or loss on the instrument is recognized in earnings in the period of change.

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i8c3ffc4de2924413938ed71548e7a6f5_7)</u>

**KEURIG DR PEPPER INC.**

**NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**

***(UNAUDITED, CONTINUED)***

We have exposure to credit losses from derivative instruments in an asset position in the event of nonperformance by the counterparties to the agreements. Historically, we have not experienced material credit losses as a result of counterparty nonperformance. We select and periodically review counterparties based on credit ratings, limit our exposure to a single counterparty under defined guidelines, and monitor the market position of the programs upon execution of a hedging transaction and at least on a quarterly basis.

**INTEREST RATES** 

***Economic Hedges***

We are exposed to interest rate risk related to our borrowing arrangements and obligations. We enter into interest rate contracts to provide predictability in our overall cost structure and to manage the balance of fixed-rate and variable-rate debt. We primarily enter into receive-fixed, pay-variable and receive-variable, pay-fixed swaps, and swaption contracts. 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 generally reported in Interest expense, net in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. As of September 30, 2025, economic interest rate derivative instruments have maturities ranging from March 2027 to November 2046.

***Cash Flow Hedges***

From time to time, we designate certain interest rate contracts as cash flow hedges in order to manage the exposures resulting from changes in interest rates as described above. We had no such contracts outstanding as of September 30, 2025.

**FOREIGN EXCHANGE**

We are exposed to FX risk in our foreign subsidiaries and with certain counterparties in foreign jurisdictions, which may transact in currencies that are different from the functional currencies of our legal entities. Additionally, the balance sheets of these subsidiaries are subject to exposure from movements in exchange rates.

***Economic Hedges***

We hold FX forward contracts to economically manage the balance sheet exposures resulting from changes in the FX rates described above. The intent of these FX contracts is to minimize the impact of FX risk associated with balance sheet positions not in local currency. In these cases, a 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.

Additionally, we have significant anticipated Euro-denominated cash outflows resulting from the intended JDE Peet's Acquisition, as described in Note 2. To reduce our exposure to exchange rate fluctuations associated with the planned acquisition consideration and related financing, we entered into FX forward contracts during the third quarter of 2025.

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 caption of the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income as the associated risk. As of September 30, 2025, these FX contracts have maturities ranging from October 2025 to September 2026.

***Cash Flow Hedges***

We designate certain FX forward contracts as cash flow hedges in order to manage the exposures resulting from changes in the FX rates described above. These designated FX forward contracts relate to forecasted inventory purchases of our foreign subsidiaries in U.S. dollars. The intent of these FX contracts is to provide predictability in our overall cost structure. As of September 30, 2025, these FX contracts have maturities ranging from October 2025 to June 2027.

***(UNAUDITED, CONTINUED)***

**COMMODITIES**

***Economic Hedges***

We centrally manage the exposure to volatility in the prices of certain commodities used in our production process and transportation through various derivative contracts. We generally hold some combination of future, swap, and option contracts that economically hedge certain of our risks. In these cases, a 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 or as an offset to certain costs of production. 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 our reportable 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 income from operations. As of September 30, 2025, these commodity contracts have maturities ranging from October 2025 to July 2027.

**NOTIONAL AMOUNTS OF DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS**

The following table presents the notional amounts of our outstanding derivative instruments by type:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|

| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Forward contracts, designated as cash flow hedges | **677** | 486 |
| Commodity contracts, not designated as hedging instruments<sup>(2)</sup> | **607** | 515 |

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1)Includes €10 billion of FX forward contracts entered into during the third quarter of 2025 in connection with the planned JDE Peet's Acquisition.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2)Notional value for commodity contracts is calculated as the expected volume times strike price per unit on a gross basis.

**FAIR VALUE OF DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS** 

The fair values of commodity contracts, interest rate contracts, and FX 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 contracts are valued using the market approach based on observable market transactions, primarily underlying commodities futures or physical index prices, at the reporting date. Interest rate contracts are valued using models based primarily on readily observable market parameters, such as SOFR forward rates, for all substantial terms of our contracts and credit risk of the counterparties. FX forward contracts are valued using quoted forward FX prices at the reporting date. Therefore, we have categorized these contracts as Level 2.

**7. Segments** 

Our operating and reportable segments consist of the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The U.S. Refreshment Beverages segment reflects sales in the U.S. from the manufacture and distribution of branded concentrates, syrups, and finished beverages, including the sales of our own brands and third-party brands, to third-party bottlers, distributors, and retailers.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The U.S. Coffee segment reflects sales in the U.S. from the manufacture and distribution of finished goods relating to our K-Cup pods, single-serve brewers, and accessories, and other coffee products to partners, retailers, and directly to consumers through the Keurig.com website.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The International segment reflects sales in international markets, including the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ Sales in Canada, Mexico, the Caribbean, and other international markets from the manufacture and distribution of branded concentrates, syrups, and finished beverages, including sales of our own brands and third-party brands, to third-party bottlers, distributors, and retailers.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ Sales in Canada from the manufacture and distribution of finished goods relating to our K-Cup pods, single-serve brewers, and other coffee products.

Segment results are based on management reports provided to the CODM, which is Tim Cofer, our CEO. Net sales and income from operations are the significant financial measures used to assess the operating performance of our operating segments. The CODM periodically monitors our actual results and remaining forecast versus our annual budget for these financial measures, and this information is used to assess performance of the reportable segments, determine the payout of short-term incentive plan compensation, and to establish management's base salaries.

Intersegment sales are recorded at cost and are eliminated in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. We have not provided disclosures of intersegment sales or total assets for each reportable segment, as our CODM does not review and is not provided with this information. "Other segment (income) expense" includes Other operating expense (income), net, as well as other financial statement captions for infrequent charges, such as impairment of goodwill or intangible assets, used to arrive at "Income from operations - reportable segments". "Unallocated corporate costs" are excluded from our measurement of segment performance and include unrealized commodity derivative gains and losses and certain general corporate expenses.

**PERFORMANCE SHARE UNITS**

In March 2025, the Remuneration & Nomination Committee of the Board approved PSU grants. Each PSU represents the right to receive one share of our common stock. The PSUs vest 3 years from the grant date, to the extent that the performance metrics are achieved during a predetermined performance period. The performance metrics include net sales growth and adjusted diluted EPS growth, as defined in the respective grant agreement, and are measured on a constant currency basis. The payout percentage for all PSUs granted ranges from 0% to 200%. Beginning in 2025, the fair value of PSUs is determined based on the number of units granted and the grant date price of common stock.

**11. Investments** 

The following table summarizes our investments in unconsolidated affiliates:

---

| ***(in millions)*** | **September 30, 2025** | **December 31, 2024** |
| Nutrabolt<sup>(1)</sup> | $**1155** | $1097 |

| Athletic Brewing<sup>(2)</sup> | **53** | 47 |
| Other | **27** | 30 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Investments in unconsolidated affiliates | $**1617** | $1543 |

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1)We hold a 35.8% interest on an as-converted basis in Nutrabolt, consisting of 30.4% in Class A preferred shares acquired through our December 2022 investment, which are treated as in-substance common stock, and 5.4% in Class B common shares earned through the achievement of certain milestones included in our distribution agreement with Nutrabolt.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2)During the first quarter of 2025, we received additional equity interests in Athletic Brewing in accordance with our investment agreement, raising our total interest to 12.2%. This earned equity is recorded in Other income, net in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

**12. Income Taxes** 

Our effective tax rates were as follows:

---

| | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| | **Third Quarter** | **Third Quarter** | **First Nine Months** | **First Nine Months** |
| | **2025** | **2024** | **2025** | **2024** |
| Effective tax rate | **22.3%** | 23.2% | **22.6%** | 23.4% |

---

For the third quarter of 2025, the change in our effective tax rate was driven by a shift in the mix of income from higher tax jurisdictions to lower tax jurisdictions and a favorable comparison to a true-up of prior year tax provisions in the third quarter of 2024, partially offset by an increase in uncertain tax positions.

For the first nine months of 2025, the change in our effective tax rate was driven by a shift in the mix of income from higher tax jurisdictions to lower tax jurisdictions, which was partially offset by an increase in uncertain tax positions.

On July 4, 2025, the OBBB was signed into law in the U.S., which includes a broad range of tax reform provisions. We currently expect the impact of the OBBB to be immaterial to our consolidated financial statements, including our estimated annual effective tax rate.

**15. Commitments and Contingencies** 

We are occasionally subject to litigation or other legal proceedings. Reserves are recorded for specific legal proceedings when we determine that the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome is probable and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. We had litigation reserves of $3 million and $2 million as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. We have also identified certain other legal matters where we believe an unfavorable outcome is reasonably possible and/or for which no estimate of possible losses can be made. We do not believe that the outcome of these, or any other, pending legal matters, individually or collectively, will have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition, or liquidity.

**ANTITRUST LITIGATION**

In February 2014, TreeHouse Foods, Inc. and certain affiliated entities filed suit against KDP's wholly-owned subsidiary, Keurig (formerly known as Green Mountain Coffee Roasters, Inc.), in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York ("SDNY") (TreeHouse Foods, Inc. et al. v. Green Mountain Coffee Roasters, Inc. et al.). The TreeHouse complaint asserted claims under the federal antitrust laws and various state laws, contending that Keurig had monopolized alleged markets for single serve coffee brewers and single serve coffee pods. The TreeHouse complaint sought treble monetary damages, declaratory relief, injunctive relief and attorneys' fees. In the months that followed, a number of additional actions, including claims from another coffee manufacturer (JBR, Inc.), as well as putative class actions on behalf of direct and indirect purchasers of Keurig's products, were filed in various federal district courts, asserting claims and seeking relief substantially similar to the claims asserted and relief sought in the TreeHouse complaint. Additional similar actions were filed by individual direct purchasers (including McLane Company, Inc., BJ's Wholesale Club, Inc., Winn-Dixie Stores Inc., and Bi-Lo Holding LLC) in 2019 and in 2021. All of these actions were transferred to the SDNY for coordinated pre-trial proceedings (In re: Keurig Green Mountain Single-Serve Coffee Antitrust Litigation) (the "Multidistrict Antitrust Litigation").

In July 2020, Keurig reached an agreement with one of the plaintiff groups in the Multidistrict Antitrust Litigation, the putative indirect purchaser class, to settle the claims asserted for $31 million. The settlement class consisted of individuals and entities in the United States that purchased, from persons other than Keurig and not for purposes of resale, Keurig manufactured or licensed single serve beverage portion packs during the applicable class period (beginning in September 2010 for most states). The settlement was approved and paid, and the indirect purchasers' claims have been dismissed.

Discovery in all remaining matters pending in the Multidistrict Antitrust Litigation is concluded, with the plaintiffs collectively claiming more than $5 billion of monetary damages. Keurig strongly disputes the merits of the claims and the calculation of damages. Keurig has fully briefed summary judgment motions that, if successful, would end the cases entirely. Keurig is also pursuing its opposition to direct purchaser plaintiffs' motion for class certification.

Keurig intends to continue vigorously defending the remaining lawsuits. At this time, we are unable to predict the outcome of these lawsuits, the potential loss or range of loss, if any, associated with the resolution of these lawsuits or any potential effect they may have on us or our results of operations. Accordingly, we have not accrued for a loss contingency. Additionally, as the timelines in these cases may be beyond our control, we can provide no assurance as to whether or when there will be material developments in these matters.

**16. Restructuring** 

**RESTRUCTURING PROGRAMS**

***Network Optimization***

In March 2024, we announced a restructuring program designed to more effectively and efficiently meet the needs of consumers and customers. Our restructuring program includes the closure of certain facilities and other costs intended to optimize our manufacturing and distribution footprint throughout our operations.

The restructuring program is expected to incur pre-tax restructuring charges in an estimated range of $160 million to $180 million through 2026, primarily comprised of asset related costs.

***2023 CEO Succession and Associated Realignment***

In 2023, we began to implement succession planning for our CEO, including a realignment of our executive and operating leadership team, in order to reinforce enterprise capabilities to support growth and to control costs. The program is expected to incur charges of approximately $85 million, primarily driven by severance costs, which were substantially completed as of December 31, 2024, and the sign-on bonus for our CEO.

**RESTRUCTURING EXPENSES**

Restructuring expenses for the defined programs were as follows:

**17. Related Parties**

In February 2025, JAB BevCo B.V., a subsidiary of JAB, sold approximately 87 million shares of our common stock through an underwritten secondary offering. Upon completion of the offering on February 28, 2025, JAB beneficially owned less than 10% of our outstanding common stock, and the three members of our Board affiliated with JAB resigned. Prior to these transactions, JAB and its affiliates were included in our disclosures of related party transactions. Effective February 28, 2025, these disclosures are no longer applicable to JAB and its affiliates.

**18. Subsequent Events**

**JV INVESTMENT**

On October 26, 2025, we entered into the JV Commitment Letter, under which the JV Investors have committed to making a strategic minority investment into the Pod Manufacturing JV.

Pursuant to the JV Commitment Letter, (i) at or prior to the closing of the JV Investment, we will contribute to the Pod Manufacturing JV, either by contribution or merger of one or more of our subsidiaries, the Coffee Production Assets as well as all of our related coffee assets (including sales and distribution) in Canada and (ii) at the closing of the JV Investment, the JV Investors will contribute, through the JV Investor Partner, $4 billion in cash in exchange for a 49% interest in the Pod Manufacturing JV. The remaining 51% ownership interest will remain under our ownership. Further, the JV Commitment Letter names each of Apollo Global Securities, LLC and KKR Capital Markets, LLC as a joint lead arranger with respect to certain of the transactions.

**KEURIG DR PEPPER INC.**

**NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**

***(UNAUDITED, CONTINUED)***

The JV Commitment Letter sets forth each partner's rights and responsibilities with respect to the Pod Manufacturing JV, including with respect to the board of managers (a majority of which will be appointed by us), certain unanimous approval rights in favor of the JV Investor Partner, mechanisms for capital contributions to be made to the Pod Manufacturing JV, limitations on transfers by the partners, a call right exercisable by us beginning approximately 8 years following the closing, a conversion right exercisable by the JV Investor Partner approximately 15 years following the closing whereby the JV Investor Partner may elect to convert its interest in the Pod Manufacturing JV into shares of KDP, or following the Separation, the separated coffee business, and certain redemption obligations of Pod Manufacturing JV in the event of change of control transaction. It also sets forth distribution mechanics pursuant to which the Pod Manufacturing JV will make quarterly distributions of available cash (subject to certain limitations, including for operating costs and reserves) to its partners generally in proportion to their ownership interests.

The funding of the JV Investors' commitment is subject to customary conditions, including: (i) no material adverse effect having occurred on our business or the business comprising the Coffee Production Assets and all of our related coffee assets (including sales and distribution) in Canada; (ii) our payment of the applicable commitment fees and expenses; (iii) entry into definitive agreements with respect to the JV Investment and the Pod Manufacturing JV; (iv) our long-term debt maintaining a credit rating that is not lower than investment grade by at least two of S&P, Moody's, and Fitch; (v) the receipt of required regulatory approvals; (vi) the contribution of all or substantially all of the Coffee Production Assets and all of our related coffee assets (including sales and distribution) in Canada to the Pod Manufacturing JV; (vii) the closing of the JDE Peet's Acquisition; (viii) the continued operation of the Coffee Production Assets and all of our related coffee assets (including sales and distribution) in Canada in all material respects; and (ix) the continued accuracy of certain representations and warranties made by us with respect to the Coffee Production Assets and related sales and distribution assets in Canada and the Pod Manufacturing JV and our compliance of certain covenants to be set forth in the definitive agreements with respect to the JV Investment.

We intend to use the net proceeds from the JV Investment to fund a portion of the JDE Peet's Acquisition consideration and the related fees and expenses. The JV Investors will receive a 1% transaction fee upon closing (30% of which was earned at signing and payable if the JV Commitment Letter is terminated, subject to certain limited exceptions) and a 0.10% "ticking fee" for the period beginning 120 days after signing until the closing of the JV Investment. The definitive documentation for the JV Investment has not yet been finalized and may differ from the foregoing description once finalized.

**PREFERRED INVESTMENT**

On October 27, 2025, we entered into the Preferred Investment Agreement with the KKR Investor and the Apollo Investor. Under the Preferred Investment Agreement, we agreed to issue and sell to the Preferred Investors, and the Preferred Investors agreed to purchase from us, 3 million shares of our Convertible Preferred Stock, with a par value of $0.01 per share, for a purchase price of $1,000 per share, for an aggregate purchase price of $3 billion. The transaction is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

***(UNAUDITED, CONTINUED)***

The Convertible Preferred Stock will rank senior to our common stock with respect to dividend and distribution on liquidation rights. The Convertible Preferred Stock will have a liquidation preference of $1,000 per share. The holders of the Convertible Preferred Stock will be entitled to dividends at a rate of 4.75% per annum, subject to increase in certain cases, and to participate in dividends paid to holders of our common stock on an as-converted basis, provided that any such dividends received on an as-converted basis will reduce, on a dollar-for-dollar basis, the dividends holders are entitled to receive on the Convertible Preferred Stock. Dividends on the Convertible Preferred Stock will be paid in cash. We may choose to defer payment of all or part of any dividends due on the Convertible Preferred Stock; however, we will accrue additional dividends until paid in cash and we will not be able to declare or pay any dividends on or make repurchases of our common stock, subject to certain conditions. The Convertible Preferred Stock will be convertible into shares of our common stock, at our election or the holders thereof, in certain specified circumstances, at an initial conversion price of $37.25 (which price will be subject to anti-dilution adjustments, as well as an adjustment in the event that we complete the Separation). Holders may convert up to, in the aggregate, 50% of the Convertible Preferred Stock allocated among such holders and their permitted transferees pro rata at any time, and may convert the remainder following the earliest of the closing of the Separation, the 18-month anniversary of the issuance of the Convertible Preferred Stock, upon foreclosure by a lender under a bona fide loan or other financing arrangement or the 12-month anniversary of any initial public offering of the remaining beverage business if the Separation has not yet occurred. We may require, at any time after the 3-year anniversary of the issuance of the Convertible Preferred Stock to be converted if the closing price per share of our common stock exceeds 150% of the conversion price then in effect for at least twenty trading days in any period of thirty consecutive trading days. After the seventh anniversary of the issue date, we will have the option to redeem the Convertible Preferred Stock at the then-applicable redemption price. In the case of a fundamental change, we will be required to offer to repurchase the Convertible Preferred Stock at a specified price. Preferred Investors will vote with holders of our common stock on an as-converted basis, following the satisfaction of certain conditions.

The Preferred Investment is subject to customary closing conditions, including, among others: (i) the continued accuracy of the representations and warranties contained in the Preferred Investment Agreement; (ii) the performance in all material respects by each party of its respective covenants and agreements under the Preferred Investment Agreement; (iii) the expiration of applicable waiting periods under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976; and (iv) the substantially concurrent closing of the JDE Peet's Acquisition. We intend to use the net proceeds from the Preferred Investment to fund a portion of the consideration for the JDE Peet's Acquisition and related fees and expenses.

**BRIDGE CREDIT AGREEMENT**

Upon the closing of the JV Investment and the Preferred Investment, the Bridge Credit Agreement will be reduced by an amount equal to the net proceeds from the JV Investment and the Preferred Investment, subject to applicable de minimis exceptions.

**INTEREST RATE CONTRACTS DESIGNATED AS CASH FLOW HEDGES**

In October 2025, in order to hedge the variability in cash flows from interest rate changes associated with our planned future issuances of long-term debt, we entered into forward starting swaps with an aggregate notional amount of $1.5 billion and designated them as cash flow hedges.

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

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto in our 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 Exchange Act, including, in particular, statements about the impact of future events, future financial performance, plans, strategies, business combinations, expectations, prospects, competitive environment, regulation, labor matters, supply chain issues, tariffs or trade wars and related uncertainty, inflation, 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 "outlook," "guidance," "anticipate," "enable," "expect," "believe," "could," "confident," "estimate," "feel," "continue," "ongoing," "forecast," "intend," "may," "on track," "plan," "positioned," "potential," "project," "should," "target," "will," "would," and similar words, phrases, or expressions and variations or negatives of these words 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 a variety of factors, including the inherent uncertainty of estimates, forecasts, and projections; global economic uncertainty or economic downturns; tariffs or the imposition of new tariffs, trade wars, barriers, or restrictions, or threats of such actions and related uncertainty; the risk that our financial performance may be better or worse than anticipated; the possibility that we are unable to successfully integrate GHOST into our business; risks related to the completion of the JDE Peet's Acquisition, the Preferred Investment, the JV Investment, or the Separation in the anticipated timeframe, or at all; additional risks associated with the JDE Peet's Acquisition and those geographies where JDE Peet's currently operates; our ability to successfully integrate JDE Peet's into our business, or that such integration may be more difficult, time-consuming, or costly than expected; constraints on management's attention to operating and growing our business during the execution of the JDE Peet's Acquisition and the Separation; the potential downgrade of our credit ratings as a result of debt incurred and/or assumed in connection with the JDE Peet's Acquisition; the possibility of negative impacts on business relationships in connection with the JDE Peet's Acquisition and the Separation; the risk that the JDE Peet's Acquisition and the Separation incur significant additional costs; the risk of potential litigation; negative effects of the announcement and pendency of the JDE Peet's Acquisition and the Separation on our share price; and the ability to achieve the anticipated strategic and financial benefits from the Separation. 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, as well as our subsequent filings with the SEC. 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 does not constitute an offer, or any solicitation of any offer, to buy or subscribe for any securities in JDE Peet's. Any offer will be made only by means of an offer memorandum approved by the Dutch Authority for the Financial Markets. This Quarterly Report is not for release, publication, or distribution, in whole or in part, in or into, directly or indirectly, in any jurisdiction in which such release, publication, or distribution would be unlawful.

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.

Gross profit increased 9.3% to $2,340 million for the third quarter of 2025. This performance primarily reflected the gross profit impact of net sales growth (14 percentage points), partially offset by the net impact from changes in ingredients, materials, and productivity, inclusive of tariffs (6 percentage points).

SG&A expenses increased 8.0% to $1,344 million for the third quarter of 2025, primarily driven by increased transportation and warehousing expenses (2 percentage points) and higher labor costs (2 percentage points).

Income from operations increased 10.3% to $995 million for the third quarter of 2025, driven by increased gross profit, partially offset by higher SG&A expenses.

Interest expense, net increased 77.4% to $188 million for the third quarter of 2025, driven by an unfavorable year-over-year change in unrealized mark-to-market activity (15 percentage points) and increased debt and higher financing costs (4 percentage points).

Other income, net increased in the third quarter of 2025, reflecting net gains on our investments in unconsolidated affiliates of $30 million and unrealized gains on FX contracts of $28 million related to the JDE Peet's Acquisition, partially offset by an increase of approximately $20 million in our mandatory redemption liability for GHOST.

The effective tax rate decreased 90 bps to 22.3% for the third quarter of 2025, compared to 23.2% for the third quarter of 2024, primarily driven by a shift in the mix of income from higher tax jurisdictions to lower tax jurisdictions (110 bps) and a favorable comparison to a true-up of prior year tax provisions in the third quarter of 2024 (60 bps), partially offset by an increase in uncertain tax positions (80 bps).

Net income increased 7.5%, to $662 million for the third quarter of 2025, primarily driven by increased income from operations.

Diluted EPS increased 8.9% to $0.49 per diluted share for the third quarter of 2025 as compared to $0.45 in the third quarter of 2024.

*U.S. Refreshment Beverages*

Sales volume increased 0.7% in the third quarter of 2025, led by growth in our energy portfolio, including the acquisition of GHOST, partially offset by softness in our still beverages portfolio.

Net sales increased 14.4% to $2,735 million for the third quarter of 2025, led by volume / mix growth, including a benefit from the acquisition of GHOST, as well as higher net price realization.

Income from operations increased 11.1% to $802 million for the third quarter of 2025. This performance was led by the gross profit impact of net sales growth (26 percentage points), partially offset by increased transportation and warehousing expenses (4 percentage points), a net unfavorable change in ingredients, materials, and productivity, inclusive of tariffs (4 percentage points), higher labor costs (4 percentage points), the impact of a smaller earned equity achievement in 2025 compared to 2024 (1 percentage point) and increases in other manufacturing costs.

*U.S. Coffee*

Appliance volume decreased 26.5%, reflecting price elasticity impacts and continued retailer inventory management. K-Cup pod volume decreased 6.5%, reflecting category elasticity in response to price increases.

Net sales increased 1.5% to $991 million for the third quarter of 2025, led by favorable net price realization, which was partially offset by unfavorable volume / mix.

Income from operations decreased 6.7% to $237 million for the third quarter of 2025, reflecting a net unfavorable change in ingredients, materials, and productivity, inclusive of tariffs (29 percentage points) and increased costs associated with productivity projects (6 percentage points), partially offset by the benefit of favorable net price realization (26 percentage points).

*International*

LRB sales volume decreased 1.4%. Appliance volumes decreased 2.4%, and K-Cup pod volumes increased 5.9%.

Net sales increased 10.5% to $580 million in the third quarter of 2025, reflecting higher net price realization, volume / mix growth, and favorable FX translation.

Income from operations decreased 2.5%, to $153 million for the third quarter of 2025, as the benefit from the gross profit impact of the higher net price realization (20 percentage points) was more than offset by a net unfavorable impact from changes in ingredients, materials, and productivity (13 percentage points), increased transportation and warehousing expenses (4 percentage points), and increases in other manufacturing costs.

***U.S. Refreshment Beverages***

Sales volume increased 1.5% for the first nine months of 2025, led by growth in our energy portfolio, including the acquisition of GHOST, and in carbonated soft drinks. These benefits were partially offset by softness in our still beverages portfolio.

Net sales increased 12.0% to $7,718 million for the first nine months of 2025, led by volume / mix growth, including a benefit from the acquisition of GHOST, as well as higher net price realization.

Income from operations increased 7.2% to $2,202 million for the first nine months of 2025. This performance was led by the gross profit impact of net sales growth (21 percentage points), partially offset by increased transportation and warehousing expenses (6 percentage points), a net unfavorable impact from changes in ingredients, materials, and productivity, inclusive of tariffs (5 percentage points) higher labor costs (3 percentage points), and the impact of a smaller earned equity achievement in 2025 compared to 2024 (2 percentage points).

***U.S. Coffee***

Appliance volume decreased 21.1%, reflecting price elasticity impacts and continued retailer inventory management, and K-Cup pod volume decreased 5.6%, reflecting category elasticity in response to price increases.

Net sales decreased 0.7% to $2,816 million for the first nine months of 2025, as higher net price realization was more than offset by unfavorable volume / mix.

Income from operations decreased 7.9% to $672 million for the first nine months of 2025, driven by a net unfavorable impact from changes in ingredients, materials, and productivity, inclusive of tariffs (19 percentage points) and increased costs associated with productivity projects (6 percentage points), partially offset by the benefit of higher net price realization (14 percentage points).

***International***

LRB sales volume was approximately flat. Appliance volumes decreased 1.2% and K-Cup pod volumes increased 3.1%.

Net sales increased 1.0% to $1,570 million in the first nine months of 2025, reflecting higher net price realization and volume / mix growth, partially offset by unfavorable FX translation.

Income from operations decreased 7.9% to $386 million for the first nine months of 2025, as the benefit from the gross profit impact of the higher net price realization and volume/mix growth (23 percentage points) was more than offset by increased transportation and warehousing expenses (8 percentage points), a net unfavorable impact from changes in ingredients, materials, and productivity, inclusive of tariffs (7 percentage points), unfavorable FX impacts (5 percentage points), and increases in other manufacturing costs.

**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. These critical accounting estimates are discussed in greater detail in Part II, Item 7 of our Annual Report.

**LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES**

***Overview***

We believe our financial condition and liquidity remain strong. We continue to manage all aspects of our business, including, but not limited to, monitoring the financial health of our customers, suppliers, and other third-party relationships, implementing gross margin enhancement strategies through our productivity initiatives, and developing new opportunities for growth, such as innovation and agreements with partners to distribute brands that are accretive to our portfolio.

Cash generated by our foreign operations is generally repatriated to the U.S. periodically as working capital funding requirements, where allowed. We do not expect restrictions or taxes on repatriation of cash held outside the U.S. to have a material effect on our overall business, liquidity, financial condition, or results of operations for the foreseeable future.

![891](kdp-20250930_g6.jpg)

***JDE Peet's Acquisition***

In connection with the JDE Peet's Acquisition, we entered into the Bridge Credit Agreement, which provides for a 364-day senior unsecured bridge loan facility in an aggregate amount not to exceed €16.2 billion. We expect to reduce or replace the Bridge Credit Agreement with permanent financing arrangements, which may include issuance of debt securities and other financing options as warranted, prior to the transaction close date. As of September 30, 2025, the full amount of this facility remains available and undrawn. Refer to Note 3 of the Notes to our Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

On October 26, 2025, we entered into the JV Commitment Letter, pursuant to the terms of which the JV Investors will make, subject to certain conditions, a strategic minority investment into the Pod Manufacturing JV, for an aggregate purchase price of $4 billion. On October 27, 2025, we entered into the Preferred Investment Agreement. The Preferred Investment Agreement provides for the issuance and sale of 3 million shares of Convertible Preferred Stock for an aggregate purchase price of $3 billion. The closings of the JV Investment and Preferred Investment are expected to occur concurrently with the closing of the JDE Peet's Acquisition, and the proceeds thereof will be used to partially finance the JDE Peet's Acquisition. Refer to Note 18 of the Notes to our Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

***Bridge Credit Agreement***

Upon the closing of the JV Investment and the Preferred Investment, the Bridge Credit Agreement will be reduced by an amount equal to the net proceeds from the JV Investment and Preferred Investment, subject to applicable de minimis exceptions.

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i8c3ffc4de2924413938ed71548e7a6f5_7)</u>

***Principal Sources of Capital Resources***

Our principal sources of liquidity are our existing cash and cash equivalents, cash generated from our operations, and borrowing capacity available under our 2025 Revolving Credit Agreement. Additionally, we have an uncommitted commercial paper program where we can issue unsecured commercial paper notes on a private placement basis. 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 and thereafter for the foreseeable future. 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. From time to time, we may seek additional deleveraging, refinancing, or liquidity enhancing transactions, including entering into transactions to repurchase or redeem outstanding indebtedness or otherwise seek transactions to reduce interest expense, extend debt maturities, and improve our capital and liquidity structure.

*Sources of Liquidity - Operations*

Net cash provided by operating activities decreased $91 million for the first nine months of 2025, as compared to the first nine months of 2024, driven by lower net income adjusted for non-cash items.

*Sources of Liquidity - Financing*

![37](kdp-20250930_g7.jpg)

Refer to Note 3 of the Notes to our Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements for management's discussion of our financing arrangements.

As of September 30, 2025, we were in compliance with all debt covenants and we have no reason to believe that we will be unable to satisfy these covenants.

We also have an active shelf registration statement, filed with the SEC on August 15, 2025, which allows us to issue an indeterminate number or amount of common stock, preferred stock, debt securities, and warrants from time to time in one or more offerings at the direction of our Board.

*Credit Ratings*

Our credit ratings are as follows:

---

| | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **Rating Agency** | **Long-Term Debt Rating** | **Commercial Paper Rating** | **Outlook** | **Date of Last Change** |
| Moody's | Baa1 | P-2 | Ratings Under Review | August 25, 2025 |
| S&P | BBB | A-2 | Watch Negative | August 25, 2025 |

---

As a result of our announcement of the JDE Peet's Acquisition, as well as the corresponding Bridge Credit Agreement entered into for this anticipated transaction, Moody's and S&P have revised their outlook on our credit ratings. On August 25, 2025, Moody's placed KDP ratings under review for downgrade, and S&P has placed KDP on CreditWatch Negative.

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i8c3ffc4de2924413938ed71548e7a6f5_7)</u>

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.

***Principal Uses of Capital Resources***

Our capital allocation priorities are investing to grow our business both organically and inorganically, continuing to strengthen our balance sheet, and returning cash to shareholders through regular quarterly dividends and opportunistic share repurchases. We dynamically adjust our cash deployment plans based on the specific opportunities available in a given period, but over time we allocate capital to balance each of these priorities.

*Regular Quarterly Dividends*

We have declared total dividends of $0.69 per share and $0.66 per share for the first nine months of 2025 and 2024, respectively.

*Repurchases of Common Stock*

Our Board authorized a four-year share repurchase program, ending December 31, 2025, of up to $4 billion of our outstanding common stock. We did not repurchase any common stock during the first nine months of 2025. As of September 30, 2025, $1,810 million remained available for repurchase under the authorized share repurchase program.

*Capital Expenditures*

Purchases of property, plant, and equipment were $338 million and $398 million for the first nine months of 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Capital expenditures, which includes both purchases of property, plant, and equipment and amounts included in accounts payable and accrued expenses, primarily related to investments in manufacturing capabilities, both in the U.S. and internationally, for the first nine months of 2025 and 2024. Capital expenditures included in accounts payable and accrued expenses were $151 million and $164 million for the first nine months of 2025 and 2024, respectively, which primarily related to these investments.

*Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates*

From time to time, we expect to invest in beverage startup companies or in brand ownership companies to grow our presence in certain product categories, or enter into various licensing and distribution agreements to expand our product portfolio. Our investments may involve acquiring a minority interest in equity securities of a company, in certain cases with a protected path to ownership at our future option.

*Acquisitions of Businesses and Purchases of Intangible Assets*

We have invested in the expansion of our distribution network through transactions with strategic independent bottlers or third-party brand ownership companies to ensure competitive distribution scale. Additionally, from time to time, we acquire brand ownership companies to expand our portfolio. These transactions could be accounted for either as an acquisition of a business or as an asset acquisition, if the majority of the transaction price represents the acquisition of a single intangible asset. In the second quarter of 2025, we completed the Dyla acquisition. Refer to Note 2 of the Notes to our Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information. Purchases of intangible assets were $16 million and $49 million for the first nine months of 2025 and 2024, respectively.

***Uncertainties and Trends Affecting Liquidity***

Disruptions in financial and credit markets, including those caused by inflation, global economic uncertainty or economic downturns, fluctuations in interest rates, or the imposition of new tariffs or changes to existing tariffs, trade wars, barriers or restrictions, or threats of such actions, and related uncertainty, may impact our ability to manage normal commercial relationships with our customers, suppliers, and creditors, and may also impact our ability to access liquidity through financial markets in a timely and cost-effective manner. 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.

Customer and consumer demand for our products may also be impacted by the risk factors discussed under "Risk Factors" in Part 1, Item 1A of our Annual Report, as well as subsequent filings with the SEC, that could have a material effect on production, delivery, and consumption of our products, which could result in a reduction in our sales volume.

Refer to "Risk Factors" in Part II, Item 1A below for additional risks and uncertainties related to the JDE Peet's Acquisition.

**SUPPLEMENTAL GUARANTOR FINANCIAL INFORMATION**

**RISKS RELATED TO THE JDE PEET'S ACQUISITION**

***We may not complete the proposed JDE Peet's Acquisition within the time frame we anticipate, or at all, which could adversely effect our business.***

On August 24, 2025, we entered into the JDE Peet's Acquisition Agreement, pursuant to which we will commence a tender offer to acquire all of the issued ordinary shares of JDE Peet's. The JDE Peet's Acquisition is expected to close in the first half of 2026 and will depend on a number of conditions being satisfied, including, receiving the minimum number of tenders, regulatory approvals, and other closing conditions. Our ability to complete the proposed JDE Peet's Acquisition in the anticipated timeline, or at all, could be impacted by any or all of the following events:

*The requisite number of JDE Peet's shareholders may not tender their shares.*

The JDE Peet's Acquisition Agreement provides that the consummation of the proposed JDE Peet's Acquisition will be subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions, including the minimum tender of at least 95% of the shares of JDE Peet's, which will be reduced if the shareholders of JDE Peet's adopt resolutions for the implementation of certain post-closing measures and such resolutions are in full force and effect on the tender offer closing date. Pursuant to the JDE Peet's Acquisition Agreement, the board of directors of JDE Peet's has agreed to recommend our offer to purchase JDE Peet's for acceptance by shareholders. Concurrently with the entry into the JDE Peet's Acquisition Agreement, we obtained irrevocable undertakings from Acorn Holdings B.V. and certain directors of JDE Peet's, who collectively hold in the aggregate, as of the date of such undertakings, approximately 69% of the shares of JDE Peet's. Pursuant to the terms of the irrevocable undertakings, Acorn and JDE Peet's directors have committed to tender their shares of JDE Peet's in the offer and to vote in favor of the resolutions proposed at the JDE Peet's Extraordinary General Meeting (the "acceptance threshold"). Accordingly, additional shareholders of JDE Peet's will need to tender their shares in the offer for the offer to reach the acceptance threshold and we cannot guarantee we will be successful in obtaining 100% of shares of JDE Peet's. If we are unable to obtain the requisite acceptance threshold of shares of JDE Peet's, additional measures may be performed to enable us to acquire the remaining shares, which may delay or impact our ability to complete the JDE Peet's Acquisition.

*The JDE Peet's Acquisition is subject to various regulatory approvals and other closing conditions, which may not be satisfied on the proposed terms or on the anticipated schedule.*

The completion of the JDE Peet's Acquisition will depend upon a number of conditions being satisfied, including, among others, obtaining regulatory approvals in the U.S. and certain other jurisdictions. We cannot provide assurance that all necessary regulatory approvals will be obtained in order to consummate the intended JDE Peet's Acquisition in a timely manner, or at all, and failure to obtain such approvals or satisfy or secure waiver of other closing conditions, either in the anticipated timeframe or at all, could impact our ability to complete the JDE Peet's Acquisition and have an adverse effect on our business.

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i8c3ffc4de2924413938ed71548e7a6f5_7)</u>

*There could be legal proceedings or governmental inquiries in connection with the JDE Peet's Acquisition, the outcomes of which are uncertain, could result in substantial costs, and which could delay or prevent the completion of the JDE Peet's Acquisition.*

In connection with the JDE Peet's Acquisition, plaintiffs may file lawsuits against us, JDE Peet's, and/or the directors and officers of either company. Securities class action lawsuits and derivative lawsuits are often brought against public companies that have entered into merger agreements. Even if such a lawsuit is unsuccessful, defending against these claims can result in substantial costs. An adverse judgment could also result in monetary damages. Both defense costs and adverse judgments could have a negative impact on our liquidity and financial condition. In addition, either company may face inquiries from governmental entities in connection with the JDE Peet's Acquisition. Such legal proceedings or governmental inquiries could also prevent or delay the completion of the JDE Peet's Acquisition and result in additional costs to us.

***The market price of our common stock may decline as a result the JDE Peet's Acquisition.***

The market price of our common stock may decline as a result of the JDE Peet's Acquisition if, among other things, we are unable to achieve the expected benefits and synergies of the JDE Peet's Acquisition, if the JDE Peet's Acquisition is not completed within the anticipated timeframe, or if the transaction costs related to the JDE Peet's Acquisition are greater than expected.

The market price of our common stock also may decline if we do not achieve the expected benefits and synergies of the JDE Peet's Acquisition as rapidly or to the extent anticipated by financial or industry analysts, or if the effect of the JDE Peet's Acquisition on our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows is not consistent with the expectations of financial or industry analysts. The market price declined following the announcement of the JDE Peet's Acquisition and the Separation.

***We will incur significant direct and indirect costs as a result of the JDE Peet's Acquisition.***

We have incurred and expect to incur a number of costs associated with the JDE Peet's Acquisition, including legal, accounting, consulting, and other advisory fees, financing costs, and other transaction-related costs. The JDE Peet's Acquisition will require significant management and employee resources, which could impact our ability to grow our business and pursue additional strategic opportunities. Certain costs related to the JDE Peet's Acquisition will be incurred regardless of whether the acquisition is completed, which may provide no benefit if such acquisition fails to be completed. While we have assumed that a certain level of transaction expenses will be incurred, factors beyond our control could affect the total amount or the timing of these expenses. Many of the expenses that will be incurred, by their nature, are difficult to estimate accurately. These costs could restrict our resources and adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations leading up to, and following, the JDE Peet's Acquisition.

***The JDE Peet's Acquisition will expose us to inherent risks in JDE Peet's' business and those geographies where JDE Peet's currently operates, which could adversely affect our business.***

If consummated successfully, the JDE Peet's Acquisition would represent a significant transformation of our coffee business and will expand our operations to those geographies where JDE Peet's currently operates, including Russia, which represented 6% of consolidated revenue and 1% of total assets for JDE Peet's in both 2024 and 2023, as reported in their 2024 annual report. Upon completion of the JDE Peet's Acquisition, we would be subject to a variety of risks associated with JDE Peet's' business, in addition to those we already face in our current business. These risks include changes in consumer preferences, volatility in the prices of raw materials, consumer perceptions of the brands, competition in the retail market place, additional legal and regulatory regimes, and other risks. In addition, we will be exposed to risks inherent in operating in a significant number of geographies in which we have not operated or have been less present in the past, including countries that are experiencing significant unstable geopolitical conditions. These risks include, among others:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the difficulty of managing and staffing foreign offices;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the increased travel, infrastructure, legal, and compliance costs associated with new international locations;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• tariffs, sanctions, such as those imposed in response to the Russia and Ukraine conflict, trade barriers, trade disputes, and other regulatory or contractual limitations on our ability to operate in new foreign markets;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• exposure to foreign currency exchange risk;

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i8c3ffc4de2924413938ed71548e7a6f5_7)</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• adaptation to different business cultures, languages, and market structures; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• military conflicts, such as the Russia and Ukraine conflict, and other geopolitical issues.

As we expand our business, our success will depend, in large part, on our ability to anticipate and effectively manage these risks and other risks associated with growing international operations. We cannot predict how such conditions may affect our business, or those with whom we do business, and any ongoing or new conflicts could adversely impact our business.

***If our due diligence investigation of JDE Peet's was inadequate or if unexpected risks related to JDE Peet's and its business materialize, it could have a material adverse effect on our business.***

Even though we conducted a due diligence investigation of JDE Peet's, we cannot be sure that our diligence surfaced all material issues that may be present inside JDE Peet's or its business, or that it would be possible to uncover all material issues through a customary amount of due diligence, or that factors outside of JDE Peet's and its business and outside of its control will not arise later. If any such material issues arise, they may materially and adversely impact our ongoing business and our shareholders' investment.

***We will incur and assume significant debt as a result of the JDE Peet's Acquisition, which could adversely affect our financial performance.***

We currently maintain investment grade credit ratings with Moody's and S&P for both our long-term debt and commercial paper. However, we will take on a significant amount of debt in order to complete the JDE Peet's Acquisition, as well as assume the existing debt of JDE Peet's, which could impact our credit ratings. We cannot provide assurances that our current credit ratings will remain in effect or that the ratings will not be lowered by Moody's and S&P. Increased indebtedness and any actual or anticipated downgrade of our credit ratings may have adverse effects on our borrowing costs, access to capital markets, liquidity, flexibility in responding to changing market conditions in the event of a general downturn in economic conditions or our business, and, as a result, our financial performance.

Additionally, the agreements that will govern any debt incurred or assumed in connection with the JDE Peet's Acquisition may contain various covenants that may, subject to certain significant exceptions, restrict our ability to, among other things, respond to market conditions, take advantage of business opportunities, incur debt, have liens on our property, and/or sell or convey certain of our assets. Our ability to comply with these provisions may be affected by events beyond our control. Failure to comply with these covenants could result in an event of default, which, if not cured or waived, could accelerate our repayment obligations and could result in a default and acceleration under other agreements containing cross-default provisions. Under these circumstances, we might not have sufficient funds or other resources to satisfy all of our obligations, which may adversely impact our business.

***We may not successfully integrate JDE Peet's into our business, or such integration may be more difficult, time-consuming, or costly than expected, which could adversely affect our business.***

The combination of two businesses is a complex, costly, and time-consuming process. As a result, we will be required to devote significant management attention and resources to combining JDE Peet's' operations, processes, policies, and systems with our business. The failure to meet the challenges involved in combining the businesses and to realize the anticipated benefits of the JDE Peet's Acquisition could cause an interruption of, or a loss of momentum in, our activities and could adversely affect the results of our operations. The overall combination of JDE Peet's' and our businesses may also result in material unanticipated expenses, liabilities, competitive responses, losses of customer and other business relationships, and other unexpected issues. The difficulties of combining the operations of the businesses include, among others:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the diversion of management attention to integration matters;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• difficulties in integrating operations and systems;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• challenges in conforming standards, controls, procedures, accounting and other policies, business cultures, and compensation structures between the two companies;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• difficulties in assimilating employees and in attracting and retaining key personnel;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• challenges in keeping existing customers and obtaining new customers;

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i8c3ffc4de2924413938ed71548e7a6f5_7)</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• difficulties in managing the expanded operations of a large company which operates in additional geographic markets;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• integrating the companies' financial reporting and internal control systems, including compliance by the combined company with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as amended, and the rules promulgated by the SEC; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• potential unknown liabilities, adverse consequences, and unforeseen increased expenses associated with the integration.

Many of these factors may be outside of the control of KDP and JDE Peet's, and any one of them could result in increased costs, decreased expected revenues, and diversion of management time and energy, which could materially impact our business, financial condition, and results of operations. In addition, even if JDE Peet's' business operations are successfully integrated with ours, the full benefits of the JDE Peet's Acquisition may not be realized, including expected cost synergies, and sales or growth opportunities. Moreover, many of the expenses integration that we expect to incur are, by their nature, difficult to estimate accurately. These expenses could, particularly in the near term, exceed the savings that we expect to achieve from the elimination of duplicative expenses and the realization of economies of scale. As a result, it cannot be assured that the integration of JDE Peet's will result in the realization of the full anticipated benefits anticipated from the JDE Peet's Acquisition within the anticipated time frames, or at all.

Further, the success of the JDE Peet's Acquisition will depend in part on the retention of key employees. We may not be able to retain senior executives or key personnel. Furthermore, uncertainty about the effect of the JDE Peet's Acquisition on JDE Peet's employees may impair its ability to retain and motivate key personnel until and after the consummation of the JDE Peet's Acquisition. If such key employees are not retained, we may not realize the anticipated benefits of the JDE Peet's Acquisition.

***We will be subject to business uncertainties related to the JDE Peet's Acquisition.***

Uncertainty about the effects of the JDE Peet's Acquisition may have an adverse effect on us, both prior and subsequent to completion of the acquisition. These uncertainties could disrupt our business or the business of JDE Peet's, and cause our collective customers, suppliers, vendors, partners, among others, to defer entering into contracts with the two companies, seek to change or cancel existing business relationships, or make other decisions concerning us and JDE Peet's that may be unfavorable to us. These uncertainties about the various effects of the JDE Peet's Acquisition on our business have caused, and may continue to cause, declines and greater volatility in the price of our common stock. We cannot guarantee that our stock price will fully recover from such declines after the JDE Peet's Acquisition is completed.

Retention and motivation of certain employees, both at KDP and JDE Peet's, may be challenging during the pendency of the JDE Peet's Acquisition due to uncertainty about their future roles and difficulty of integration. If key employees depart because of issues related to the uncertainty and difficulty of integration or a desire not to remain with us, our business following the JDE Peet's Acquisition could be negatively impacted.

Additionally, as discussed above, we expect to incur significant debt related to fund this transaction, and the resulting leverage level of our business may lead to a decline in our common stock price. We may also pursue other funding alternatives that may create dilution in our stock price, including the issuance of shares of our common stock, sale of certain assets, and reductions in the net income available to our shareholders, among others.

***In connection with the JDE Peet's Acquisition, we expect to consummate the JV Investment contemplated by the JV Commitment Letter, which could restrict our operational and corporate flexibility, impact our cash resources, and/or depress the market price of our common stock.***

On October 26, 2025, we entered into the JV Commitment Letter, under which the JV Investors have committed to making, subject to certain closing conditions, a strategic minority investment into the Pod Manufacturing JV. Pursuant to the JV Commitment Letter, (i) at or prior to the closing of the JV Investment, we will contribute, either by contribution or merger of one or more of our subsidiaries, the Coffee Production Assets, as well as all of our related coffee assets (including sales and distribution) in Canada to the Pod Manufacturing JV, and (ii) at the closing of the JV Investment, the JV Investors will contribute, through the JV Investor Partner, $4 billion in cash in exchange for a 49% interest in the Pod Manufacturing JV. The remaining 51% ownership interest will remain under our ownership.

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i8c3ffc4de2924413938ed71548e7a6f5_7)</u>

The JV Commitment Letter sets forth each partner's rights and responsibilities with respect to the Pod Manufacturing JV. A portion of all distributions by the Pod Manufacturing JV will be paid to the JV Investors, thereby reducing distributions to us. The JV Investor Partner will also have certain governance and consent rights that will restrict our operational and corporate flexibility with respect to the Pod Manufacturing JV. In addition, we may be required to contribute additional resources, including cash, to the Pod Manufacturing JV, which would reduce our cash available for other purposes. In the event of a change of control, the Pod Manufacturing JV would be required to redeem the interests of the JV Investors, which would reduce the cash available for distributions to us. Under certain circumstances, the interests of the JV Investors may be converted into shares of our common stock (or following the Separation, the common stock of the separated global coffee business), which could have a dilutive impact on holders of our existing common stock. Any sales of such common stock, or the perception that such shares may be sold, could depress the market price of our common stock. Furthermore, if we materially breach our obligations to the Pod Manufacturing JV, we may be required to pay monetary damages, or the JV Investors may be entitled to replace us as the operator of the Pod Manufacturing JV. The definitive documentation for the JV Investment has not yet been finalized and may differ from the foregoing description once finalized.

***The issuance of the Convertible Preferred Stock to the Preferred Investors in connection with the JDE Peet's Acquisition may adversely affect the rights and market price of our common stock as well as our capital resources.***

On October 27, 2025, we agreed to issue and sell 3 million shares of Convertible Preferred Stock to the Preferred Investors, subject to customary closing conditions. When issued, the Convertible Preferred Stock will rank senior to our common stock, meaning that, in the event of our liquidation, dissolution, or winding up, holders of the Convertible Preferred Stock would be paid in full prior to any proceeds being paid to holders of our common stock.

Preferred Investors will be entitled to dividends, payable in cash, in-kind, or a combination of the two, at our election, at a rate of 4.75% per annum, subject to increase in certain cases. They will also be entitled to participate in dividends paid to holders of our common stock on an as-converted basis, provided that any such dividends received on an as-converted basis will reduce, on a dollar-for-dollar basis, the dividends holders are entitled to receive on the Convertible Preferred Stock. Such dividends will reduce our cash available for other purposes, including working capital, strategic activities, and returning cash to holders of our common stock.

Preferred Investors will be entitled to vote, on an as-converted basis, together with holders of our common stock on all matters submitted to a vote of the holders of our common stock, effectively reducing the relative voting power of the holders of our common stock. To the extent that we pay dividends on the Convertible Preferred Stock in-kind, that will increase the voting power of the Convertible Preferred Stock relative to our common stock.

In addition, the conversion of the Convertible Preferred Stock to common stock would dilute the ownership interest of existing holders of our common stock, and any sales in the public market of the common stock issuable upon conversion of the Convertible Preferred Stock could adversely affect prevailing market prices of our common stock. We will grant certain Preferred Investors customary registration rights in respect of their Convertible Preferred Stock, and any shares of common stock issued upon conversion of the Convertible Preferred Stock. These registration rights would facilitate the resale of such securities into the public market, and any such resale would increase the number of shares available for public trading. Sales by the Preferred Investors of a substantial number of shares of our common stock in the public market, or the perception that such sales might occur, could have a material adverse effect on the price of our common stock.

In the event of a fundamental change, as defined in the document governing the Convertible Preferred Stock, we will be required to offer to repurchase the Convertible Preferred Stock, which would reduce the amount of cash available to us for other purposes.

Certain Preferred Investors will also have certain preemptive rights, which may impact our ability to raise capital in the future.

Our obligations to the Preferred Investors could limit our ability to obtain additional financing or increase our borrowing costs, which could have an adverse effect on our financial condition. The rights of the Preferred Investors could also result in divergent interests between the Preferred Investors and holders of our common stock.

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i8c3ffc4de2924413938ed71548e7a6f5_7)</u>

The Preferred Investment Agreement provides that, prior to the closing of the JDE Peet's Acquisition, we (i) will use reasonable best efforts to operate our business in the ordinary course in all material respects (without restricting our activities with respect to the JDE Peet's Acquisition, the Preferred Investment, the JV Investment, the Separation, and the related transactions), and (ii) unless the KKR Investor and the Apollo Investor otherwise consent in writing (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed), not take any other action that, if taken following the issuance of the Preferred Investment, would require the prior written consent of the holders of the Convertible Preferred Stock or result in an adjustment to the conversion price unless such adjustment is effected in connection with the issuance of the Convertible Preferred Stock.

In addition, the Preferred Investment Agreement provides that, without the prior written consent of the KKR Investor or the Apollo Investor (so long as the KKR Investor or the Apollo Investor owns at least 50% of its initial Preferred Investment), we (i) will not amend the JDE Peet's Acquisition Agreement in a manner that would be materially adverse to the KKR Investor or the Apollo Investor, and (ii) will not permit the Separation to be consummated if (A) our pro forma total net leverage immediately following the Separation is greater than 4.00 to 1.00, if a Qualified IPO shall have been consummated on or prior to the Separation, or 4.25 to 1.00, if a Qualified IPO shall not have been consummated on or prior to the Separation, or (B) the corporate rating of either us or the spun-off coffee business, on a pro forma basis at the time of the Separation, would be less than investment grade from either Moody's or S&P. For so long as the Convertible Preferred Stock is outstanding, in the event of a ratings downgrade by either Moody's or S&P, we will be subject to additional negative covenants that would restrict our operational flexibility.

***We may issue additional equity securities in the future to raise proceeds to fund the JDE Peet's Acquisition, which may result in further dilution to our existing shareholders.***

If we raise additional capital to fund the JDE Peet's Acquisition through the issuance of additional equity securities, our existing shareholders may experience further dilution. The terms of the securities we issue in the future may be more favorable to our new investors and introduce additional complexity to our capital structure.

**RISKS RELATED TO THE SEPARATION**

***The Separation may not be completed on the terms or timeline currently contemplated, if at all, and will involve significant time, expense and resources, which could adversely affect our business.***

On August 25, 2025, we announced our intention to separate our beverage and coffee portfolios into two independent, publicly traded companies via a tax-free spin-off of our coffee business. The anticipated Separation is expected to occur subsequent to the completion of the JDE Peet's Acquisition. We cannot assure that the Separation will be completed on the anticipated timeline, if at all, or that the terms of the Separation will not change. The transaction will follow the satisfaction of customary conditions, including reviews and final approval by our Board, receipt of an Internal Revenue Service ruling and relevant tax opinions with respect to the tax-free nature of the transaction, effectiveness of appropriate filings with the SEC, and acceptance of the spin-off company for listing by a national securities exchange approved by our Board, the completion of audited financials of the new independent company, among others. The failure to satisfy any of the required conditions could delay the completion of the Separation for a significant period of time or prevent it from occurring at all.

Unanticipated developments, including changes in the competitive conditions of our markets, possible delays in obtaining various tax opinions or rulings or failure of the spin-off transaction to qualify for non-recognition treatment for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the filing and effectiveness of appropriate filings with the SEC and the listing on a stock exchange, negotiating challenges, the uncertainty of the financial markets, changes in the law, and challenges in executing the Separation, could delay or prevent the completion of the Separation, or cause the Separation to occur on terms or conditions that are different or less favorable than initially expected. Any changes to the Separation or delay in completing the Separation could cause us not to realize some or all of the expected benefits, or realize them on a different timeline than initially expected. Further, our Board could decide, either because of a failure of conditions or because of market or other factors, to abandon the Separation. No assurance can be given as to whether and when the Separation will occur.

Whether or not we complete the Separation, our ongoing business may be adversely affected, and we may be subject to certain risks and consequences as a result of pursuing the separation of our two businesses, including the following:

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i8c3ffc4de2924413938ed71548e7a6f5_7)</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We anticipate that the process of completing the Separation will be time-consuming and involve significant additional costs and expenses, which may not yield a discernible benefit if the Separation is not completed. Additionally, if the Separation is not completed, we will still be required to pay certain costs and expenses incurred in connection therewith, such as professional fees.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Executing the Separation will require significant time and attention from our senior management and employees, which may impact management's attention to operating and growing our business and could adversely affect our business. Our employees may also be distracted due to uncertainty about their future roles with the separate companies pending completion of the Separation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We may also experience increased difficulties in attracting, retaining, and motivating employees leading up to, and following, completion of the Separation, which could harm our businesses.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Some of our customers or suppliers may delay or defer decisions or may end their relationships with us.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We may experience negative reactions from the financial markets if we fail to complete the Separation or fail to complete it on a timely basis.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We could incur substantial additional costs and experience temporary business interruptions.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Transfer or assignment to us of some contracts and other assets will require the consent of a third party. If such consent is not given, we may not be entitled to the benefit of such contracts, investments, and other assets in the future.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The announcement and pendency of the Separation may cause some investors to sell shares of our common stock, which could create greater volatility or decline in the price of our shares.

Any of the above factors could cause the Separation, or the failure to execute the Separation, to have an adverse effect on our business and financial performance.

***We may be unable to achieve some or all of the anticipated strategic and financial benefits from the Separation.***

We may not realize the anticipated strategic, financial, operational, or other benefits from the Separation. We also cannot predict with certainty when the expected benefits will occur or the extent to which they will be achieved. If the Separation is completed, our operational and financial profile will change and we will face new risks. As two independent, publicly traded companies, our beverage and coffee businesses will each be smaller, less-diversified companies and may be more vulnerable to changing market conditions. There is no assurance that each separate company will be successful. The announcement and/or completion of the Separation may cause uncertainty for or disruptions with our customers, partners, suppliers, and employees, which may negatively impact these relationships or our operations. In addition, we will incur one-time costs and ongoing costs in connection with, or as a result of, the spin-offs, including costs of operating as independent, publicly-traded companies that the two businesses will no longer be able to share. Those costs may exceed our estimates or could negate some of the benefits we expect to realize. Significant unexpected costs or failure to realize the intended benefits of the Separation could result in a material adverse effect on the business, financial condition, results of operations, and trading price of us or the separated businesses.

***Following the Separation, we may not maintain a satisfactory credit rating, which could adversely affect the financial performance of our businesses.***

It is management's intent to structure each stand-alone business in a way to achieve investment grade credit ratings upon completion of the Separation. If we are not able to achieve or maintain satisfactory credit ratings post-separation, whether as a result of our actions or factors which are beyond our control, the independent businesses may face increased borrowing costs and limited access to raise funds in capital markets. A failure to achieve or maintain investment grade ratings could also impact business relationships with vendors, suppliers, regulators, and other business partners. There is no guarantee that we will be able to achieve or maintain our targeted credit ratings, and failure to do so may adversely affect the liquidity and financial performance of the businesses following the proposed Separation.

***Following the Separation, the price of our common stock may decline and may experience greater volatility.***

Upon completion of the Separation, the price of our common stock may decline compared to its level immediately prior to, as it will no longer include the value of the separated business. In addition, the price of our common stock may experience greater volatility until the market has fully analyzed our value without the separated business. We can not guarantee that the combined value of the shares of the two resulting companies will be equal to or greater than what the value of our common stock would have been had the proposed Separation not occurred.

**Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds**

On October 1, 2021, our Board authorized a share repurchase program of up to $4 billion of our outstanding common stock, enabling us to opportunistically return value to shareholders. The $4 billion authorization is effective for four years, beginning on January 1, 2022 and expiring on December 31, 2025, and does not require the purchase of any minimum number of shares. We did not repurchase any shares under this program during the third quarter of 2025. As of September 30, 2025, $1,810 million remained available for repurchase under the authorized share repurchase program.

**Item 5. Other Information**

During the third quarter of 2025, no directors or executive officers of KDP adopted, modified, or terminated any contract, instruction, or written plan for the purchase or sale of KDP securities that was intended to satisfy the affirmative defense conditions of Rule 10b5-1(c) or any "non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement," as defined in Item 408 of Regulation S-K.
