Second-quarter reporting is underway for major bevcos. This morning, PepsiCo reported North American beverages turned in +1% organic revenue growth (same as Q1) on +5% higher pricing and a -3% decline in volume (-5% in Q1). The company overall lowered its full-year revenue outlook. Consumer pushback on inflated grocery prices was the story of the day, especially for PepsiCo's Frito-Lay portfolio. While still 'surgical,' expect to see more promotional and pack size activity to draw consumers back to the retail shelf. The Coca-Cola Company reports July 23 and Keurig Dr Pepper Inc. reports July 25. PBNA's decent away-from-home performance could be a good sign for those two.
