PepsiCo’s Sneaky Q3 Beat: Earnings Up, New CFO In, But U.S. Snack Sales Slump – What It Means
PepsiCo posted Q3 adjusted EPS of $2.29, beating estimates, with revenue up 2.7% to $23.9 billion. Organic sales rose just 1.3%, missing targets, as U.S. snack and soda demand fell and volumes dropped. The company reaffirmed 2025 guidance and named Walmart U.S. CFO Steve Schmitt as its new CFO. Shares rose 2% pre-market but remain down nearly 9% for the year.
