The analysis of the financial data reveals several notable trends and patterns over the five-year period.
- Net Operating Profit After Taxes (NOPAT)
- NOPAT shows a generally upward trend, increasing from $8,429 million in 2020 to $10,978 million in 2024. There is a slight dip observed in 2022 compared to 2021, but the overall progression indicates consistent growth in operating profitability after taxes.
- Cost of Capital
- The cost of capital exhibits some fluctuations but remains within a narrow range between 8.46% and 9.13%. The highest cost was recorded in 2022 at 9.13%, followed by a gradual decrease to 8.86% by 2024, suggesting a slight reduction in the expense associated with financing the invested capital.
- Invested Capital
- Invested capital remains relatively stable from 2020 to 2022, hovering around $70 billion. From 2022 onwards, there is a noticeable increase, reaching approximately $76.7 billion in 2024. This change suggests increased investment, possibly supporting future growth or operational expansion.
- Economic Profit
- Economic profit, defined as the value created above the cost of capital, improves significantly from $2,504 million in 2020 to $4,184 million in 2024. Despite a decrease in 2022 compared to 2021, economic profit rebounds in the subsequent years, indicating enhanced value creation and efficient use of capital relative to the cost of financing.
Overall, the data illustrates a positive trajectory in profitability and capital efficiency, with sustained growth in operating profit and economic profit alongside a stable or slightly decreasing cost of capital. The increase in invested capital suggests strategic reinvestment to support ongoing business activities or expansion. The patterns reflect effective management in balancing profitability and capital costs to enhance shareholder value over the examined period.

The annual financial data presents a general upward trend in key profitability metrics over the five-year period analyzed.
- Net Income Attributable to PepsiCo
- This metric shows a consistent increase throughout the period. Starting at 7,120 million US dollars in 2020, it rises to 7,618 million in 2021 and then experiences a notable jump to 8,910 million in 2022. This growth continues more moderately through 2023 and 2024, reaching 9,074 million and 9,578 million respectively. The trend suggests steady improvements in the company’s ability to generate profits attributable to shareholders.
- Net Operating Profit After Taxes (NOPAT)
- The NOPAT figures also demonstrate an overall growth trend but with a slight fluctuation in 2022. The measure increases from 8,429 million US dollars in 2020 to 9,629 million in 2021, reflecting enhanced operational efficiency or profitability. However, there is a decrease to 9,364 million in 2022, indicating a possible operational challenge or increased costs during that year. Despite this dip, NOPAT recovers and grows to 10,029 million in 2023 and further to 10,978 million in 2024, suggesting a strong rebound and continued operational success.
Overall, the data exhibits positive financial performance with increasing profitability over the studied years. While net income shows steady growth without decline, NOPAT reveals a minor fluctuation but recovers, highlighting the company’s resilience and operational strength.
Cash Operating Taxes
Based on: 10-K (reporting date: 2024-12-28), 10-K (reporting date: 2023-12-30), 10-K (reporting date: 2022-12-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2021-12-25), 10-K (reporting date: 2020-12-26).
- Provision for income taxes
- The provision for income taxes exhibited some variability over the five-year period. It increased from 1894 million US dollars in 2020 to a peak of 2142 million in 2021. The figure then declined to 1727 million in 2022, before rising again to 2262 million in 2023 and slightly increasing further to 2320 million in 2024. This fluctuation suggests changes in taxable income or adjustments in tax planning strategies over the years.
- Cash operating taxes
- Cash operating taxes demonstrated a consistent upward trend throughout the period. Starting at 2034 million US dollars in 2020, the outflow grew steadily each year, reaching 2131 million in 2021, 2660 million in 2022, 2970 million in 2023, and 3060 million in 2024. This continuous increase may reflect rising operational profitability, changes in tax regulations, or growing business activities impacting cash tax payments.
- Comparative insights
- While both provision for income taxes and cash operating taxes increased overall, cash operating taxes showed a more pronounced and consistent upward trajectory. The divergence seen particularly in 2022, where provision decreased but cash taxes increased significantly, could indicate timing differences between tax provision accruals and actual tax payments or variations in non-cash tax components. The steady rise in cash taxes suggests increasing cash tax obligations that might impact the company’s liquidity needs.

- Total reported debt & leases
- The total reported debt and lease obligations showed a downward trend from 45,843 million USD in 2020 to 41,487 million USD in 2022, indicating a reduction in overall leverage during this period. However, starting in 2023, the debt level increased significantly to 47,061 million USD and continued to rise slightly to 47,751 million USD in 2024, suggesting a shift toward higher leverage or increased financing activity in recent years.
- Total PepsiCo common shareholders’ equity
- Shareholders’ equity exhibited steady growth from 13,454 million USD in 2020 up to a peak of 18,503 million USD in 2023, reflecting accumulation of retained earnings or capital injections over time. In 2024, equity slightly declined to 18,041 million USD, indicating a minor reduction in net assets attributable to common shareholders.
- Invested capital
- Invested capital remained relatively stable around the high 69,000 million USD range between 2020 and 2022, with values of 70,066 million USD in 2020 and 69,452 million USD in 2022. From 2023 onward, it increased noticeably to 75,038 million USD in 2023 and further to 76,674 million USD in 2024, signaling an expansion in the capital deployed in the business or acquisitions of additional assets.
- Summary
- Overall, the financial data reveals a period of debt reduction followed by increased borrowing after 2022. The rise in shareholders’ equity from 2020 through 2023 reflects strengthening capital base, though a slight dip in 2024 could merit attention. The invested capital trend aligns with the recent increase in debt, highlighting possible growth strategies or capital intensive initiatives pursued post-2022.
