PepsiCo tops earnings, revenue expectations in Q1
) reported a modest decline in stock price premarket Tuesday, down 0.5%, even after announcing first-quarter earnings and revenue that surpassed analysts' expectations. The company posted adjusted earnings per share of $1.61, which was $0.09 higher than the consensus estimate of $1.52. Revenue for the quarter was reported at $18.25 billion, exceeding the consensus estimate of $18.1 billion.
Chairman and CEO Ramon Laguarta commented on the results, highlighting the company's agility and the sequential improvement in volume trends. "We delivered year-over-year growth in our net revenue, operating profit margin, and EPS – despite the impact of certain product recalls at Quaker Foods North America and a difficult net revenue growth comparison from the prior year," said Laguarta.
Despite the positive earnings and revenue beat, the slight dip in stock price reflects investor caution. The market's reaction may be attributed to broader market trends or potentially to the company's cautious outlook in light of foreign exchange headwinds.Risk Disclosure: Trading in financial instruments and/or cryptocurrencies involves high risks including the risk of losing some, or all, of your investment amount, and may not be suitable for all investors.
