Two-Component Disaggregation of ROE
PepsiCo Inc., decomposition of ROE
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).
- Return on Assets (ROA)
- The Return on Assets exhibits a generally positive trend over the observed periods. Starting at 7.66% in late 2020, it increased to 8.25% in 2021 and peaked at 9.67% in 2022. Although there was a slight decline to 9.03% in 2023, the metric rose again to 9.63% in 2024. This indicates an overall improvement in asset efficiency in generating profits, with minor fluctuations.
- Financial Leverage
- Financial leverage decreased consistently from 6.91 in 2020 to 5.38 in 2022, suggesting a reduction in the company's reliance on debt relative to equity. However, from 2022 onwards, leverage levels stabilized somewhat, with a slight increase to 5.43 in 2023 and 5.51 in 2024. This pattern implies a cautious approach to leveraging after the initial reduction phase.
- Return on Equity (ROE)
- The Return on Equity displays moderate variability during the period. It declined from 52.92% in 2020 to 47.48% in 2021, followed by an increase to 51.96% in 2022. A subsequent decrease occurred in 2023 to 49.04%, with a rebound to the highest value in the observed span, 53.09%, in 2024. The fluctuations suggest changes in profitability and/or capital structure impacts, though the overall levels remain robust.
- Summary
- The financial data reflects an improvement in operational efficiency as evidenced by rising ROA. Concurrently, the company has lessened its financial leverage over time but has slightly increased it in recent years, possibly to optimize capital structure. Despite some fluctuations, ROE remains high, indicating strong returns for shareholders. The interplay between these metrics points to a balanced management of assets and capital structure aimed at sustaining profitability and financial strength.
