Updated version 1 - PepsiCo will cut costs as weak North American business weighs on annual core profit outlook
The third paragraph adds comments from the CEO, and the fourth paragraph provides information on stock price trends. Reuters, October 8 - PepsiCo (PEP.O) announced on Thursday that, due to weak snack and beverage demand in North America and rising input costs, it has lowered its annual core profit forecast and will further advance cost-cutting measures. Consumer goods manufacturers such as PepsiCo, General Mills (GIS.N), McCormick (MKC.N), and Conagra Brands (CAG.N) are facing a challenging operating environment: soaring raw material costs are squeezing profit margins, and rising gasoline prices are prompting consumers to be cautious with their spending, thereby dampening demand. “We are developing additional structural cost reduction measures, which will be implemented in the coming months to support investments aimed at accelerating organic revenue growth and mitigating the impact of input cost inflation,” CEO Ramon Laguarta stated in the announcement. The company’s shares rose about 1% in pre-market trading. The company expects that, after adjusting for currency fluctuations, fiscal 2026 core earnings per share will rise between 1% and 2%, lowered from the previous forecast of a 4% to 6% increase at the low end. In addition, the company expects annual organic revenue to grow by roughly 3%, compared to its previous forecast range of 2% to 4%.
