The company reported a net revenue of $22.5 billion, a slight increase from the $22.3 billion reported in the same quarter last year. This represents a 0.8% year-over-year growth in net revenue. <br><br>The company also saw an improvement in its <a href="https://tokenist.com/investing/how-to-value-a-stock/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" class="deco-link">earnings per share (EPS)</a>, which rose to $2.23, marking a 13% increase compared to the previous year. However, the results were influenced by a 1% negative impact from foreign exchange rates.</p>
<p>PepsiCo’s organic revenue growth for the quarter stood at 1.9%, driven by a combination of effective net pricing and volume growth in various regions. Core EPS, a non-GAAP measure, was reported at $2.28, reflecting a 10% increase in constant currency terms. <br><br>Despite facing challenges such as subdued category performance in North America convenient foods and product recalls at Quaker Foods North America, the company delivered strong gross and operating margin expansion.

<p>When compared to market expectations, PepsiCo’s performance in the second quarter of 2024 was mixed. Analysts had anticipated an EPS of $2.16 and revenue of $22.66 billion. <br><br>The actual EPS of $2.23 exceeded expectations, showcasing the company’s ability to generate higher-than-expected earnings. However, the reported revenue of $22.5 billion fell short of the expected $22.66 billion. This shortfall can be attributed to several factors, including the negative impact of foreign exchange rates and the challenges faced by the Quaker Foods North America division due to product recalls.</p>
<p>The company’s regional performance also varied significantly. For instance, Frito-Lay North America reported a slight decline in net revenue by 0.5%, while Quaker Foods North America saw a substantial decline of 18%, largely due to the product recalls. <br><br>On the other hand, PepsiCo Beverages North America managed to achieve a 1% increase in net revenue. Latin America and Europe reported organic revenue growth of 2% and 7%, respectively, despite facing foreign exchange headwinds. These regional disparities highlight the complex landscape in which PepsiCo operates.</p>
