The progression highlights increasing operational liabilities over time.

However, in the later periods post-2023, the trend reverses with an increase reaching 39,419 million USD in March 2025, suggesting strategic debt management involving refinancing or new long-term borrowing.
Deferred income taxes
Deferred income taxes fluctuate moderately, starting at 4,060 million USD, peaking at 5,072 million USD in March 2022, then generally declining to around 3,500 million USD by early 2025. This decline could reflect changes in tax strategies or asset/liability adjustments.

Repurchased common stock, in excess of par value
Repurchased common stock shows a continuous increase in the repurchase amount from negative 37,162 million USD to negative 41,068 million USD, revealing a steady share buyback strategy aimed at returning capital to shareholders and possibly enhancing earnings per share.
Total PepsiCo common shareholders’ equity
