NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)


1.	General

References in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to "DPS" or "the Company" refer to Dr Pepper Snapple Group, Inc. and all entities included in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Cadbury plc and Cadbury Schweppes plc are hereafter collectively referred to as "Cadbury" unless otherwise indicated. Kraft Foods Inc. acquired Cadbury on February 2, 2010 and on October 1, 2012, Kraft Foods Inc. spun-off its North American grocery business to its shareholders and changed its name to Mondelēz International, Inc. ("Mondelēz").

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q refers to some of DPS' owned or licensed trademarks, trade names and service marks, which are referred to as the Company's brands. All of the product names included herein are either DPS' registered trademarks or those of the Company's licensors.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting principally of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and the accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from these estimates. These Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.

USE OF ESTIMATES

The process of preparing DPS' unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the use of estimates and judgments that affect the reported amount of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses. These estimates and judgments are based on historical experience, future expectations and other factors and assumptions the Company believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. These estimates and judgments are reviewed on an ongoing basis and are revised when necessary. Changes in estimates are recorded in the period of change. Actual amounts may differ from these estimates:

•goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets;

•customer incentives and marketing programs;

•revenue recognition;

•pension and postretirement benefits;

•multi-employer pension plan withdrawal liability;

•risk management programs; and

•income taxes.

These critical accounting estimates are discussed in greater detail in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.

CORRECTION OF PRIOR PERIOD AMOUNTS

Subsequent to the issuance of the Company's 2012 Consolidated Financial Statements, management determined that an error resulted from the Company improperly determining the amount related to purchases of property and equipment included in accounts payable and other current liabilities. As a result, such amounts in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows for the three months ended March 31, 2013 have been corrected from the amounts previously reported to properly reflect cash purchases of property and equipment and the net change in operating assets and liabilities.

Table of Contents

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited, Continued)

The following table reflects the impact of this correction for the three months ended March 31, 2013 (in millions):

Net cash used in investing activities - Guarantors	(182		)	(17		)	(199		)

There was no impact on previously reported total cash and cash equivalents, consolidated balance sheets or consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income.

RECLASSIFICATIONS

Changes have been made to the December 31, 2013 presentation of other non-current liabilities disclosed in Note 7 to conform to the current period's presentation. These changes had no impact to total other non-current liabilities as of December 31, 2013.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

In April 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standard Update ("ASU") 2014-08, Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205) and Property, Plant, and Equipment (Topic 360) ("ASU 2014-08"). The amendments in ASU 2014-08 provide guidance for the recognition and disclosure of discontinued operations. ASU 2014-08 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2014. The Company does not anticipate a material impact to the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows as a result of this change.

RECENTLY ADOPTED PROVISIONS OF U.S. GAAP

In accordance with U.S. GAAP, the following provisions, which had no material impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows, were effective as of January 1, 2014:

•the requirement to provide disclosures related to obligations resulting from joint and several liability arrangements from which the total amount of the obligation is fixed at the reporting date; and

•the requirement related to the financial statement presentation of unrecognized tax benefit when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss or a tax credit carryforward exists.

2.	Inventories

Inventories as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013 consisted of the following (in millions):



	March 31,			December 31,
	2014			2013
Raw materials	$	88		$	86
Spare parts	23			22
Work in process	5			4
Finished goods	145			122
Inventories at first in first out cost	261			234
Reduction to last in first out ("LIFO") cost	(35		)	(34		)
Inventories	$	226		$	200

Approximately $164 million and $154 million of the Company's inventory was accounted for under the LIFO method of accounting as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. The reduction to LIFO cost reflects the excess of the current cost of LIFO inventories as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, over the amount at which these inventories were valued on the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. For the three months ended March 31, 2014, there was no LIFO inventory liquidation. For the three months ended March 31, 2013, a LIFO inventory liquidation increased the Company's gross profit by $7 million.

COMMERCIAL PAPER PROGRAM

On December 10, 2010, the Company entered into a commercial paper program under which the Company may issue unsecured commercial paper notes (the "Commercial Paper") on a private placement basis up to a maximum aggregate amount outstanding at any time of $500 million. The program is supported by a $500 million revolving line of credit (the "Revolver"), which is discussed below. Outstanding Commercial Paper reduces the amount of borrowing capacity available under the Revolver and outstanding amounts under the Revolver reduce the Commercial Paper availability. As of March 31, 2014, the Company had outstanding Commercial Paper of $150 million with maturities of 90 days or less with a weighted average interest rate of 0.24%. As of December 31, 2013, the Company had outstanding Commercial Paper of $65 million with maturities of 90 days or less with a weighted average interest rate of 0.26%.

An unused commitment fee is payable quarterly to the lenders on the unused portion of the commitments of the Revolver equal to 0.08% to 0.20% per annum, depending upon the Company's debt ratings. There were no significant unused commitment fees incurred during the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013.

SHELF REGISTRATION STATEMENT

On February 7, 2013, the Company's Board of Directors (the "Board") authorized the Company to issue up to $1,500 million of securities from time to time. Subsequently, the Company filed a "well-known seasoned issuer" shelf registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission, effective May 23, 2013, which registered an indeterminable amount of securities for future sales. As of March 31, 2014, the Company had not issued any securities under this shelf registration statement.

LETTERS OF CREDIT FACILITIES

In addition to the portion of the Revolver reserved for issuance of letters of credit, the Company has incremental letters of credit facilities. Under these facilities, $90 million is available for the issuance of letters of credit, $63 million of which was utilized as of March 31, 2014 and $27 million of which remains available for use.

6. Derivatives

DPS is exposed to market risks arising from adverse changes in:

•interest rates;

•foreign exchange rates; and

•commodity prices affecting the cost of raw materials and fuels.

The Company manages these risks through a variety of strategies, including the use of interest rate contracts, foreign exchange forward contracts, commodity forward and future contracts and supplier pricing agreements. DPS does not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.

The Company formally designates and accounts for certain interest rate contracts and foreign exchange forward contracts that meet established accounting criteria under U.S. GAAP as either fair value or cash flow hedges. For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges, the effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative instruments is recorded, net of applicable taxes, in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss ("AOCL"), a component of Stockholders' Equity in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. When net income is affected by the variability of the underlying transaction, the applicable offsetting amount of the gain or loss from the derivative instrument deferred in AOCL is reclassified to net income and is reported as a component of the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as fair value hedges, the effective change in the fair value of the instrument, as well as the offsetting gain or loss on the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk, are recognized immediately in current-period earnings. For derivatives that are not designated or are de-designated as a hedging instrument, the gain or loss on the instrument is recognized in earnings in the period of change.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited, Continued)

Certain interest rate contracts qualify for the "shortcut" method of accounting for hedges under U.S. GAAP. Under the shortcut method, the hedges are assumed to be perfectly effective and no ineffectiveness is recorded in earnings. For all other designated hedges, the Company assesses whether the derivative instrument is effective in offsetting the changes in fair value or variability of cash flows at the inception of the derivative contract. DPS measures hedge ineffectiveness on a quarterly basis throughout the designated period. Changes in the fair value of the derivative instrument that do not effectively offset changes in the fair value of the underlying hedged item throughout the designated hedge period are recorded in earnings each period.

If a fair value or cash flow hedge were to cease to qualify for hedge accounting, or were terminated, the derivatives would continue to be carried on the balance sheet at fair value until settled and hedge accounting would be discontinued prospectively. If the underlying hedged transaction ceases to exist, any associated amounts reported in AOCL would be reclassified to earnings at that time.

INTEREST RATES

Fair Value Hedges

The Company is exposed to the risk of changes in the fair value of certain fixed-rate debt attributable to changes in interest rates and manages these risks through the use of receive-fixed, pay-variable interest rate swaps.

In December 2010, the Company entered into an interest rate swap having a notional amount of $100 million and maturing in May 2038 in order to effectively convert a portion of the 2038 Notes from fixed-rate debt to floating-rate debt and designated it as a fair value hedge. The assessment of hedge effectiveness is made by comparing the cumulative change in the fair value of the hedged item attributable to changes in the benchmark interest rate with the cumulative changes in the fair value of the interest rate swap, with any ineffectiveness recorded in earnings as interest expense during the period incurred. As of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the impact of the fair value hedge on the 2038 Notes increased the carrying value by $7 million and $2 million, respectively.

In November 2011, the Company entered into four interest rate swaps having an aggregate notional amount of $250 million and durations ranging from seven to ten years in order to convert fixed-rate, long-term debt to floating rate debt. These swaps were entered into upon the issuance of the 2019 and 2021 Notes, and were accounted for as fair value hedges and qualified for the shortcut method of accounting under U.S. GAAP. As of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the impact of the fair value hedge on the 2019 and 2021 Notes decreased the carrying value by $7 million and $11 million, respectively.

In November 2012, the Company entered into five interest rate swaps having an aggregate notional amount of $120 million and maturing in January 2020 in order to effectively convert fixed-rate, long-term debt to floating rate debt. These swaps were entered into upon the issuance of the 2020 Notes, and were accounted for as fair value hedges and qualified for the shortcut method of accounting under U.S. GAAP. As of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the impact of the fair value hedge on the 2020 Notes decreased the carrying value by $6 million and $7 million, respectively.

In December 2013, the Company entered into four interest rate swaps having an aggregate notional amount of $250 million and maturing in November 2022 in order to effectively convert all of the 2022 Notes from fixed-rate debt to floating-rate debt and designated them as fair value hedges. The assessment of hedge effectiveness is made by comparing the cumulative change in the fair value of the hedged item attributable to changes in the benchmark interest rate with the cumulative changes in the fair value of the interest rate swap, with any ineffectiveness recorded in earnings as interest expense during the period incurred. As of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the impact of the fair value hedges on the 2022 Notes increased the carrying value by $3 million and decreased the carrying value by $2 million, respectively.

FOREIGN EXCHANGE

Cash Flow Hedges

The Company's Canadian business purchases its inventory through transactions denominated and settled in U.S. dollars, a currency different from the functional currency of the Canadian business. These inventory purchases are subject to exposure from movements in exchange rates. During the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company utilized foreign exchange forward contracts designated as cash flow hedges to manage the exposures resulting from changes in these foreign currency exchange rates. The intent of these foreign exchange contracts is to provide predictability in the Company's overall cost structure. These foreign exchange contracts, carried at fair value, have maturities between one and nine months as of March 31, 2014. The Company had outstanding foreign exchange forward contracts with notional amounts of $34 million and $45 million as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.

COMMODITIES

Economic Hedges

DPS centrally manages the exposure to volatility in the prices of certain commodities used in its production process and transportation through forward and future contracts. The intent of these contracts is to provide a certain level of predictability in the Company's overall cost structure. During the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company held forward and future contracts that economically hedged certain of its risks. In these cases, a natural hedging relationship exists in which changes in the fair value of the instruments act as an economic offset to changes in the fair value of the underlying items. Changes in the fair value of these instruments are recorded in net income throughout the term of the derivative instrument and are reported in the same line item of the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income as the hedged transaction. Unrealized gains and losses are recognized as a component of unallocated corporate costs until the Company's operating segments are affected by the completion of the underlying transaction, at which time the gain or loss is reflected as a component of the respective segment's operating profit ("SOP"). The total notional values of derivatives related to economic hedges of this type were $203 million and $179 million as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.

FAIR VALUE OF DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS

The following table summarizes the location of the fair value of the Company's derivative instruments within the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013 (in millions):

10. Fair Value

Under U.S. GAAP, fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. U.S. GAAP provides a framework for measuring fair value and establishes a three-level hierarchy for fair value measurements based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability. The three-level hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurements is as follows:

Level 1 - Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 - Observable inputs such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets.

Level 3 - Valuations with one or more unobservable significant inputs that reflect the reporting entity's own assumptions.

The fair values of marketable securities are determined using quoted market prices from daily exchange traded markets based on the closing price as of the balance sheet date and are classified as Level 1. The fair values of commodity forward and future contracts, interest rate swap contracts and foreign currency forward contracts are determined based on inputs that are readily available in public markets or can be derived from information available in publicly quoted markets. The fair value of commodity forward and future contracts are valued using the market approach based on observable market transactions, primarily underlying commodities futures or physical index prices, at the reporting date. Interest rate swap contracts are valued using models based primarily on readily observable market parameters, such as LIBOR forward rates, for all substantial terms of the Company's contracts and credit risk of the counterparties. The fair value of foreign currency forward contracts are valued using quoted forward foreign exchange prices at the reporting date. Therefore, the Company has categorized these contracts as Level 2.

(1)	The carrying amount includes the unamortized discounts on the issuance of debt and adjustments related to the change in the fair value of interest rate swaps designated as fair value hedges on the 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022 and 2038 Notes. Refer to Note 6 for additional information regarding derivatives.

Capital leases have been excluded from the calculation of fair value for both 2014 and 2013.

The fair value amounts of long term debt as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013 were based on current market rates available to the Company (Level 2 inputs). The difference between the fair value and the carrying value represents the theoretical net premium or discount that would be paid or received to retire all debt at such date.

FAIR VALUE OF OTHER FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The fair value amounts for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, net, commercial paper, accounts payable and other current liabilities approximate carrying amounts due to the short maturities of these instruments.

11. Stock-Based Compensation

The Company's Omnibus Stock Incentive Plans of 2008 and 2009 (collectively, the "DPS Stock Plans") provide for various long-term incentive awards, including stock options, restricted stock units ("RSUs") and performance share units ("PSUs").

Stock-based compensation expense is recorded in SG&A expenses in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. The components of stock-based compensation expense for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 are presented below (in millions):

During the three months ended March 31, 2014, 699,793 shares subject to previously granted RSUs vested. A majority of these vested RSUs were net share settled. The Company withheld 220,501 shares based upon the Company's closing stock price on the vesting date to settle the employees' minimum statutory obligation for the applicable income and other employment taxes. Subsequently, the Company remitted the required funds to the appropriate taxing authorities.

Total payments for the employees' tax obligations to the relevant taxing authorities were $13 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and are reflected as a financing activity within the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. The payments were used for tax withholdings related to the net share settlements of RSUs and dividend equivalent units. The payments had the effect of share repurchases by the Company as they reduced the number of shares that would have otherwise been issued on the vesting date and were recorded as a reduction of additional paid-in capital.

The payments had the effect of share repurchases by the Company as they reduced the number of shares that would have otherwise been issued on the vesting date and were recorded as a reduction of additional paid-in capital.

12. Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share ("EPS") is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the assumed conversion of all dilutive securities. The following table presents the basic and diluted EPS and the Company's basic and diluted shares outstanding for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 (in millions, except per share data):



	For the Three Months Ended March 31,
	2014		2013
Basic EPS:
Net income	$	155	$	106
Weighted average common shares outstanding	197.9		204.6
Earnings per common share — basic	$	0.78	$	0.52
Diluted EPS:
Net income	$	155	$	106
Weighted average common shares outstanding	197.9		204.6
Effect of dilutive securities:
Stock options, RSUs, PSUs and dividend equivalent units	1.6		1.7
Weighted average common shares outstanding and common stock equivalents	199.5		206.3
Earnings per common share — diluted	$	0.78	$	0.51

Stock options, RSUs, PSUs and dividend equivalent units totaling 0.8 million and 0.6 million shares were excluded from the diluted weighted average shares outstanding for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, as they were not dilutive.

During the three months ended March 31, 2014, the Company executed a $90 million prepaid forward repurchase of common stock and received the repurchased shares in April 2014. Shares to be repurchased under prepaid forward contracts are still considered issued and outstanding and did not reduce the number of weighted average basic and diluted shares outstanding for the three months ended March 31, 2014.

Under the terms of our RSU and PSU agreements, unvested RSU and PSU awards contain forfeitable rights to dividends and dividend equivalent units. Because the dividend equivalent units are forfeitable, they are defined as non-participating securities. As of March 31, 2014, there were 89,378 dividend equivalent units, which will vest at the time that the underlying RSU and PSU vests.

During 2009, 2010 and 2011, the Board authorized a total aggregate share repurchase plan of $3 billion. The Company repurchased and retired 1.2 million shares of common stock valued at approximately $60 million and 2.3 million shares of common stock valued at approximately $101 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. These amounts were recorded as a reduction of equity, primarily additional paid-in capital. As of March 31, 2014, $512 million remains available for share repurchase under the Board authorization.

15. Commitments and Contingencies

LEGAL MATTERS

The Company is occasionally subject to litigation or other legal proceedings as set forth below. The Company does not believe that the outcome of these, or any other, pending legal matters, individually or collectively, will have a material adverse effect on the results of operations, financial condition or liquidity of the Company.

ENVIRONMENTAL, HEALTH AND SAFETY MATTERS

The Company operates many manufacturing, bottling and distribution facilities. In these and other aspects of the Company's business, it is subject to a variety of federal, state and local environmental, health and safety laws and regulations. The Company maintains environmental, health and safety policies and a quality, environmental, health and safety program designed to ensure compliance with applicable laws and regulations. However, the nature of the Company's business exposes it to the risk of claims with respect to environmental, health and safety matters, and there can be no assurance that material costs or liabilities will not be incurred in connection with such claims.

The federal Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, also known as the Superfund law, as well as similar state laws, generally impose joint and several liability for cleanup and enforcement costs on current and former owners and operators of a site without regard to fault or the legality of the original conduct. In October 2008, DPS was notified by the Environmental Protection Agency that it is a potentially responsible party for study and cleanup costs at a Superfund site in New Jersey. Investigation and remediation costs are yet to be determined, therefore no reasonable estimate exists on which to base a loss accrual. Through March 31, 2014, the Company has paid approximately $575,000 since the notification for DPS' allocation of costs related to the study for this site.

16. Segments

As of March 31, 2014 and 2013 and for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company's operating structure consisted of the following three operating segments:

•The Beverage Concentrates segment reflects sales of the Company's branded concentrates and syrup to third party bottlers primarily in the U.S. and Canada. Most of the brands in this segment are carbonated soft drink brands.

•The Packaged Beverages segment reflects sales in the U.S. and Canada from the manufacture and distribution of finished beverages and other products, including sales of the Company's own brands and third party brands, through both DSD and WD.

•The Latin America Beverages segment reflects sales in the Mexico, Caribbean, and other international markets from the manufacture and distribution of concentrates, syrup and finished beverages.

Segment results are based on management reports. Net sales and SOP are the significant financial measures used to assess the operating performance of the Company's operating segments.

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), including, in particular, statements about future events, future financial performance, plans, strategies, expectations, prospects, competitive environment, regulation, labor matters and availability of raw materials. Forward-looking statements include all statements that are not historical facts and can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as the words "may," "will," "expect," "anticipate," "believe," "estimate," "plan," "intend" or the negative of these terms or similar expressions in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. We have based these forward-looking statements on our current views with respect to future events and financial performance. Our actual financial performance could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements due to the inherent uncertainty of estimates, forecasts and projections, and our financial performance may be better or worse than anticipated. Given these uncertainties, you should not put undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. All of the forward-looking statements are qualified in their entirety by reference to the factors discussed under "Risk Factors" in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013. Forward-looking statements represent our estimates and assumptions only as of the date that they were made. We do not undertake any duty to update the forward-looking statements, and the estimates and assumptions associated with them, after the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, except to the extent required by applicable securities laws.

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains the names of some of our owned or licensed trademarks, trade names and service marks, which we refer to as our brands. All of the product names included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are either our registered trademarks or those of our licensors.

Cadbury plc and Cadbury Schweppes plc are hereafter collectively referred to as "Cadbury", unless otherwise indicated. Kraft Foods Inc. acquired Cadbury on February 2, 2010.

On October 1, 2012, Kraft Foods, Inc. spun-off its North American grocery business to its shareholders and changed its name to Mondelēz International, Inc. ("Mondelēz").

OVERVIEW

We are a leading integrated brand owner, manufacturer and distributor of non-alcoholic beverages in the United States ("U.S."), Canada and Mexico with a diverse portfolio of flavored carbonated soft drinks ("CSDs") and non-carbonated beverages ("NCBs"), including ready-to-drink teas, juices, juice drinks and mixers. Our brand portfolio includes popular CSD brands such as Dr Pepper, Sunkist soda, 7UP, A&W, Canada Dry, Crush, Squirt, Peñafiel and Schweppes, and NCB brands such as Snapple, Mott's, Hawaiian Punch, Clamato, Rose's and Mr & Mrs T mixers. Our largest brand, Dr Pepper, is a leading flavored CSD in the U.S. according to The Nielsen Company. We have some of the most recognized beverage brands in North America, with significant consumer awareness levels and long histories that evoke strong emotional connections with consumers.

We operate as an integrated brand owner, manufacturer and distributor through our three segments. We believe our integrated business model strengthens our route-to-market and provides opportunities for net sales and profit growth through the alignment of the economic interests of our brand ownership and our manufacturing and distribution businesses through both our Direct Store Delivery ("DSD") system and our Warehouse Direct ("WD") delivery system. Our integrated business model enables us to be more flexible and responsive to the changing needs of our large retail customers and allows us to more fully leverage our scale and reduce costs by creating greater geographic manufacturing and distribution coverage.

The beverage market is subject to some seasonal variations. Our beverage sales are generally higher during the warmer months and also can be influenced by the timing of holidays and religious festivals as well as weather fluctuations.

BEVERAGE CONCENTRATES

Our Beverage Concentrates segment is principally a brand ownership business. In this segment we manufacture and sell beverage concentrates in the U.S. and Canada. Most of the brands in this segment are CSD brands. Key brands include Dr Pepper, Canada Dry, Crush, Schweppes, 7UP, Sunkist soda, A&W, Sun Drop, RC Cola, Diet Rite, Squirt, Country Time, Vernors and the concentrate form of Hawaiian Punch.

Almost all of our beverage concentrates are manufactured at our plant in St. Louis, Missouri.

Table of Contents

The beverage concentrates are shipped to third party bottlers, as well as to our own manufacturing systems, who combine them with carbonation, water, sweeteners and other ingredients, package it in PET containers, glass bottles and aluminum cans, and sell it as a finished beverage to retailers. Beverage concentrates are also manufactured into syrup, which is shipped to fountain customers, such as fast food restaurants, who mix the syrup with water and carbonation to create a finished beverage at the point of sale to consumers. Dr Pepper represents most of our fountain channel volume. Concentrate prices historically have been reviewed and adjusted at least on an annual basis.

Our Beverage Concentrates brands are sold by bottlers, including our own Packaged Beverages segment, through all major retail channels, including supermarkets, fountains, mass merchandisers, club stores, vending machines, convenience stores, gas stations, small groceries, drug chains and dollar stores.

PACKAGED BEVERAGES

Our Packaged Beverages segment is principally a brand ownership, manufacturing and distribution business. In this segment, we primarily manufacture and distribute packaged beverages and other products, including our brands, third party owned brands and certain private label beverages, in the U.S. and Canada. Key NCB brands in this segment include Snapple, Hawaiian Punch, Mott's, Yoo-Hoo, Clamato, Deja Blue, Mistic, Nantucket Nectars, ReaLemon, Mr and Mrs T mixers, Rose's and Country Time. Key CSD brands in this segment include 7UP, Dr Pepper, A&W, Sunkist soda, Canada Dry, Squirt, RC Cola, Sun Drop, Diet Rite, IBC and Vernors. Additionally, we distribute third party brands such as Big Red, AriZona tea, FIJI mineral water, Neuro beverages, Vita Coco coconut water, Bai, Sparkling Fruit₂O and Hydrive energy drinks. We also derive a portion of our sales from bottling beverages and other products for private label owners or others for a fee. Although the majority of our Packaged Beverages' net sales relate to our brands, we also provide a route-to-market for third party brand owners seeking effective distribution for their new and emerging brands. These brands give us exposure in certain markets to fast growing segments of the beverage industry with minimal capital investment.

Our Packaged Beverages' products are manufactured in multiple facilities across the U.S. and are sold or distributed to retailers and their warehouses by our own distribution network or by third party distributors. The raw materials used to manufacture our products include aluminum cans and ends, glass bottles, PET bottles and caps, paper products, sweeteners, juices, water and other ingredients.

We sell our Packaged Beverages' products both through our DSD system, supported by a fleet of approximately 6,000 trucks and 12,000 employees, including sales representatives, merchandisers, drivers and warehouse workers, as well as through our WD system, both of which include the sales to all major retail channels, including supermarkets, fountain, mass merchandisers, club stores, vending machines, convenience stores, gas stations, small groceries, drug chains and dollar stores.

LATIN AMERICA BEVERAGES

Our Latin America Beverages segment is a brand ownership, manufacturing and distribution business. This segment participates mainly in the carbonated mineral water, flavored CSD, bottled water and vegetable juice categories, with particular strength in carbonated mineral water and grapefruit flavored CSDs. Key brands include Peñafiel, Squirt, Clamato and Aguafiel.

In Mexico, we manufacture and distribute our products through our bottling operations and third party bottlers and distributors. In the Caribbean, we distribute our products through third party bottlers and distributors. In Mexico, we also participate in a joint venture to manufacture Aguafiel brand water with Acqua Minerale San Benedetto. We provide expertise in the Mexican beverage market and Acqua Minerale San Benedetto provides expertise in water production and new packaging technologies.

We sell our finished beverages through all major Mexican retail channels, including the "mom and pop" stores, supermarkets, hypermarkets and on premise channels.

VOLUME

In evaluating our performance, we consider different volume measures depending on whether we sell beverage concentrates or finished beverages.

Beverage Concentrates Sales Volume

In our Beverage Concentrates segment, we measure our sales volume in two ways: (1) "concentrate case sales" and (2) "bottler case sales." The unit of measurement for both concentrate case sales and bottler case sales equals 288 fluid ounces of finished beverage, the equivalent of 24 twelve ounce servings.

Table of Contents

Concentrate case sales represent units of measurement for concentrates sold by us to our bottlers and distributors. A concentrate case is the amount of concentrate needed to make one case of 288 fluid ounces of finished beverage. It does not include any other component of the finished beverage other than concentrate. Our net sales in our concentrate businesses are based on our sales of concentrate cases.

Although net sales in our concentrate businesses are based on concentrate case sales, we believe that bottler case sales are also a significant measure of our performance because they measure sales of packaged beverages into retail channels.

Packaged Beverages Sales Volume

In our Packaged Beverages segment, we measure volume as case sales to customers. A case sale represents a unit of measurement equal to 288 fluid ounces of packaged beverage sold by us. Case sales include both our owned brands and certain brands licensed to and/or distributed by us.

Volume in Bottler Case Sales

In addition to sales volume, we measure volume in bottler case sales ("volume (BCS)") as sales of packaged beverages, in equivalent 288 fluid ounce cases, sold by us and our bottling partners to retailers and independent distributors. Our contract manufacturing sales are not included or reported as part of volume (BCS).

Bottler case sales and concentrates and packaged beverage sales volumes are not equal during any given period due to changes in bottler concentrates inventory levels, which can be affected by seasonality, bottler inventory and manufacturing practices and the timing of price increases and new product introductions.

Volume (BCS). Volume (BCS) decreased 1% for the three months ended March 31, 2014 compared with the three months ended March 31, 2013. In the U.S. and Canada, volume declined 2%, and in Mexico and the Caribbean, volume increased 3%, compared with the year ago period. Branded CSD volume declined 1% while branded NCB volume declined 2%.

In branded CSDs, volumes were unfavorably impacted by continued category headwinds which included continued consumer concerns about health and wellness. Dr Pepper volume declined 4%. Squirt declined 8% as a result of the impact of the one peso per liter tax on the manufacturing of certain sugar-sweetened beverages in Mexico (the "Mexican sugar tax"). Other brands, which includes Welch's and Sun Drop, in total declined 5%, while RC Cola decreased 4%. These decreases were partially offset by 18% growth in Peñafiel as a result of product and package innovation, an 11% increase in Schweppes reflecting distribution gains in our seltzer water and growth in the ginger ale category and a 1% increase in Crush. Canada Dry, 7UP, A&W and Sunkist soda (our "Core 4 brands") were flat compared to the year ago period. This result was driven by a 4% increase in Canada Dry offset by a 3% decline in Sunkist soda and an 1% decrease in A&W. 7UP was flat for the period.

In branded NCBs, decreases were driven by a 8% decrease in Hawaiian Punch as a result of category headwinds and increased competitive activity, a 3% decline in other brands and an 1% decrease in Mott's due to declines in sauce. The decline was partially offset by a 2% increase in Snapple on distribution gains while Clamato increased 3%. Our water category was flat for the period.

Net Sales. Net sales increased $18 million, or approximately 1%, for the three months ended March 31, 2014 compared with the three months ended March 31, 2013. The primary drivers of the increase in net sales were favorable package and product mix, increased branded sales volume, led by our Beverage Concentrates segment, and higher pricing driven primarily by the Mexican sugar tax. These drivers were partially offset by unfavorable segment mix. Other drivers included lower discounts and an increase in contract manufacturing, partially offset by $8 million in unfavorable foreign currency translation.

Gross Profit. Gross profit increased $54 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014 compared with the three months ended March 31, 2013. Gross margin was 60.4% for the three months ended March 31, 2014 compared to the gross margin of 57.2% for the three months ended March 31, 2013. The primary drivers of the favorable change in gross margin were lower commodity costs, led by sweeteners and apples, which increased gross margin by 2.10% and the $18 million favorable comparison for the mark-to-market activity on commodity derivative contracts. Additionally, ongoing productivity improvements improved our gross margin by 0.80%, while the change in our last in first out ("LIFO") inventory provision and unfavorable package and product mix reduced our gross margin by 0.55% and 0.40%, respectively.

The favorable mark-to-market activity on commodity derivative contracts for the three months ended March 31, 2014 was $12 million in unrealized gains versus $6 million in unrealized losses in the year ago period. The unfavorable comparison in our LIFO inventory provision was the result of a $1 million increase in the provision for the three months ended March 31, 2014 versus a $7 million decrease in the provision for the three months ended March 31, 2013 driven primarily by higher apple prices.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. SG&A expenses decreased $9 million, or approximately 2%, for the three months ended March 31, 2014 compared with the prior period. The decrease was primarily the result of a $7 million reduction in our marketing investments, a decrease in professional fees and lower labor and benefit costs. These factors were partially offset by higher logistics costs from our third party carriers partially driven by tighter than expected overall system capacity.

Income from Operations. Income from operations increased $63 million to $260 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014 due to the increase in gross profit and a decrease in SG&A expenses.

Interest Expense. Interest expense decreased $8 million, or approximately 24%, for the three months ended March 31, 2014, compared with the year ago period primarily due to the repayment of 6.12% senior unsecured notes in May 2013 and the favorable impact of our fair value hedges.

Provision for Income Taxes. The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 was 34.3% and 36.1%, respectively. The current year provision for income taxes included an income tax benefit of $2 million from revaluing our U.S. deferred tax assets and liabilities due to the favorable impact of a New York State law change. Additionally, the prior year provision for income taxes included income tax expense of $2 million for which Mondelēz was previously obligated to indemnify the Company under the Tax Sharing and Indemnification Agreement.

	March 31,
	2014		2013		Change
Net sales	$	281	$	263	$	18
SOP	174		154		20

Net Sales. Net sales increased $18 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014, compared with the three months ended March 31, 2013. The increase was due to a 3% increase in concentrate case sales, an increase in concentrate prices and lower discounts due to shipment volume timing.

SOP. SOP increased $20 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014, compared with the three months ended March 31, 2013, primarily due to the gross margin impact of higher net sales and a $4 million reduction in our marketing investments.

Table of Contents

Volume (BCS). Volume (BCS) decreased 2% as a result of continued category headwinds for the three months ended March 31, 2014 compared with the three months ended March 31, 2013, primarily driven by a 4% decline in Dr Pepper. Other drivers of the decline include a 14% decrease in our other brands, led by Welch's, and an 8% decrease in RC Cola. These declines were partially offset by an 11% increase in Schweppes reflecting distribution gains in our seltzer water and growth in the ginger ale category, a 5% increase in Crush and a 6% increase in Squirt. Our Core 4 brands were flat compared to the prior year as a 3% increase in Canada Dry and a 2% increase in Sunkist soda, was offset by a 7% decline in 7UP and a 1% decrease in A&W.

PACKAGED BEVERAGES

The following table details our Packaged Beverages segment's net sales and SOP for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 (in millions):

	2014		2013		Change
Net sales	$	1,006	$	1,018	$	(12	)
SOP	131		114		17

Volume. Branded CSD volumes declined 2% for the three months ended March 31, 2014 compared with the three months ended March 31, 2013, as a result of continued category headwinds. Volume for our Core 4 brands decreased 1% compared to the prior year period, led by a 7% decline in Sunkist soda, a 3% decrease in 7UP and a 1% decline in A&W, partially offset by a 7% increase in Canada Dry. Dr Pepper volumes decreased 4% for the three months ended March 31, 2014. Our other brands, which includes Sun Drop, decreased 2%, while RC Cola declined 1%. These declines were partially offset by a 4% increase in Squirt.

Branded NCB volumes decreased 2%, driven primarily by a 9% decline in Hawaiian Punch as a result of category headwinds and increased competitive activity. Our other brands decreased 5%, while Mott's declined 2% due to declines in sauce. These decreases were partially offset by a double-digit increase in our water category, led primarily by new distribution arrangements for Bai and Sparkling Fruit₂O. Snapple increased 3% due to distribution gains, while Clamato increased 2%.

Contract manufacturing increased 9% for the three months ended March 31, 2014 compared with the three months ended March 31, 2013.

Net Sales. Net sales decreased $12 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014 compared with the three months ended March 31, 2013. Net sales decreased due to the declines in our branded sales volumes partially offset by increases in our contract manufacturing.

SOP. SOP increased $17 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014, compared with the three months ended March 31, 2013 led by favorability in cost of sales, partially offset by the gross margin impact of lower net sales. Cost of sales decreased as a result of lower commodity costs, which were led by sweeteners and apples, and ongoing productivity improvements partially offset by an unfavorable LIFO comparison. Other drivers of a higher SOP included lower labor and benefit costs, which included the favorable impact of the restructuring activities recognized during 2013.

LATIN AMERICA BEVERAGES

The following table details our Latin America Beverages segment's net sales and SOP for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 (in millions):



	For the Three Months Ended
	March 31,
	2014		2013		Change
Net sales	$	111	$	99	$	12
SOP	13		10		3

Volume. Sales volume increased 2% for the three months ended March 31, 2014 as compared with the three months ended March 31, 2013. The increase in sales volume was led by a double-digit increase in Peñafiel as a result of product innovation. 7UP grew by triple-digits in the Caribbean as sales volume for the three months ended March 31, 2013 was significantly lower due to shipment timing. Our other brands in total increased 3%. Clamato grew 5% due to increased promotional activity, while Dr Pepper increased 1%. Squirt and Crush both declined double-digits as a result of the Mexican sugar tax, while Aguafiel decreased 3%.

Net Sales. Net sales increased $12 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014 compared with the three months ended March 31, 2013. Net sales increased as a result of favorable product mix, higher pricing driven by the impact of the Mexican sugar tax and increased sales volume, partially offset by $4 million of unfavorable foreign currency translation and higher discounts.

SOP. SOP increased $3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014 compared with the three months ended March 31, 2013, primarily due to the gross margin impact of favorable product mix and ongoing productivity improvements. These favorable drivers were partially offset by higher discounts, higher logistics costs and $2 million of unfavorable foreign currency effects. The benefit of higher pricing was offset by increased costs due to the Mexican sugar tax.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

The process of preparing our consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the use of estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses. Critical accounting estimates are both fundamental to the portrayal of a company’s financial condition and results and require difficult, subjective or complex estimates and assessments. These estimates and judgments are based on historical experience, future expectations and other factors and assumptions we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. The most significant estimates and judgments are reviewed on an ongoing basis and revised when necessary.

We have identified the items described below as our critical accounting estimates:


•	goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets;


•	customer incentives and marketing programs;


•	revenue recognition;


•	pension and post-retirement benefits;


•	multi-employer pension plan withdrawal liability;


•	risk management programs; and


•	income taxes.

These critical accounting estimates are discussed in greater detail in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Trends and Uncertainties Affecting Liquidity

Customer and consumer demand for the Company's products may be impacted by various risk factors discussed under "Risk Factors" in Part I, Item 1A, of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, including recession or other economic downturn in the U.S., Canada, Mexico or the Caribbean, which could result in a reduction in our sales volume. Similarly, disruptions in financial and credit markets may impact the Company's ability to manage normal commercial relationships with its customers, suppliers and creditors. These disruptions could have a negative impact on the ability of our customers to timely

Table of Contents

pay their obligations to us, thus reducing our cash flow, or the ability of our vendors to timely supply materials.

We believe that the following trends and uncertainties may also impact liquidity:


•	continued capital expenditures to upgrade our existing plants and fleet of distribution trucks, make investments in IT systems and replace and expand our cold drink equipment;


•	continued payment of dividends;


•	seasonality of our operating cash flows could impact short-term liquidity;


•	our ability to issue unsecured commercial paper notes ("Commercial Paper") on a private placement basis up to a maximum aggregate amount outstanding at any time of $500 million;


•	our continued repurchases of our outstanding common stock pursuant to our repurchase programs; and


•	acquisitions of regional bottling companies, distributors and distribution rights to further extend our geographic coverage or access to new products.

Financing Arrangements

The following descriptions represent our available financing arrangements as of March 31, 2014. As of March 31, 2014, we were in compliance with all covenant requirements for our senior unsecured notes, unsecured credit agreement and commercial paper program.

Commercial Paper Program

On December 10, 2010, we entered into a commercial paper program under which we may issue Commercial Paper on a private placement basis up to a maximum aggregate amount outstanding at any time of $500 million. The maturities of the Commercial Paper will vary, but may not exceed 364 days from the date of issuance. We issue Commercial Paper for general corporate purposes as Commercial Paper is now a more significant part of our overall cash management strategy. The program is supported by the Revolver (as defined below). Outstanding Commercial Paper reduces the amount of borrowing capacity available under the Revolver and outstanding amounts under the Revolver reduce the Commercial Paper availability. As of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, we had outstanding Commercial Paper of $150 million and $65 million, respectively, with maturities of 90 days or less.

Unsecured Credit Agreement

On September 25, 2012, we entered into a five-year unsecured credit agreement (the "Credit Agreement"), which provides for a $500 million revolving line of credit (the "Revolver"). Borrowings under the Revolver bear interest at a floating rate per annum based upon the alternate base rate ("ABR") or the Eurodollar rate, in each case plus an applicable margin which varies based upon our debt ratings. Rates range from 0.000% to 0.300% for ABR loans and from 0.795% to 1.300% for Eurodollar loans. The ABR is defined as the greater of (a) JPMorgan Chase Bank's prime rate, (b) the federal funds effective rate plus 0.500% and (c) the adjusted LIBOR for a one month interest period. The adjusted LIBOR is the London interbank offered rate for dollars adjusted for a statutory reserve rate set by the Board of Governors of the U.S. Federal Reserve System.

Additionally, the Revolver is available for the issuance of letters of credit and swingline advances not to exceed $75 million and $50 million, respectively. Swingline advances will accrue interest at a rate equal to the ABR plus the applicable margin. Letters of credit and swingline advances will reduce, on a dollar for dollar basis, the amount available under the Revolver.

The following table provides amounts utilized and available under the Revolver and each sublimit arrangement type as of March 31, 2014 (in millions):



	Amount Utilized		Balances Available
Revolver	$	—	$	349
Letters of credit	1		74
Swingline advances	—		50

The Credit Agreement further provides that we may request at any time, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, that the aggregate commitments under the facility be increased by a total amount not to exceed $250 million.

Table of Contents

The Credit Agreement's representations, warranties, covenants and events of default are generally customary for investment grade credit and include a covenant that requires us to maintain a ratio of consolidated total debt (as defined in the Credit Agreement) to annualized consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the Credit Agreement) of no more than 3.00 to 1.00, tested quarterly. Upon the occurrence of an event of default, among other things, amounts outstanding under the Credit Agreement may be accelerated and the commitments may be terminated. Our obligations under the Credit Agreement are guaranteed by certain of our direct and indirect domestic subsidiaries on the terms set forth in the Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement has a maturity date of September 25, 2017; however, with the consent of lenders holding more than 50% of the total commitments under the Credit Agreement and subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, we may extend the maturity date for up to two additional one-year terms.

An unused commitment fee is payable quarterly to the lenders on the unused portion of the commitments available under the Revolver equal to 0.08% to 0.20% per annum, depending upon our debt ratings.

Shelf Registration Statement

On February 7, 2013, our Board authorized us to issue up to $1,500 million of securities from time to time. Subsequently, we filed a "well-known seasoned issuer" shelf registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission, effective May 23, 2013, which registers an indeterminable amount of securities for future sales. As of March 31, 2014, we had not issued any securities under this shelf registration statement.

Letters of Credit Facilities

We currently have letters of credit facilities available in addition to the portion of the Revolver reserved for issuance of letters of credit. Under these incremental letters of credit facilities, $90 million is available for the issuance of letters of credit, $63 million of which was utilized as of March 31, 2014 and $27 million of which remains available for use.

Debt Ratings

As of March 31, 2014, our debt ratings were Baa1 with a stable outlook from Moody's and BBB+ with a stable outlook from S&P. Our commercial paper ratings were P-2/A-2 from Moody's and S&P, respectively.

These debt and commercial paper ratings impact the interest we pay on our financing arrangements. A downgrade of one or both of our debt and commercial paper ratings could increase our interest expense and decrease the cash available to fund anticipated obligations.

Cash Management

We fund our liquidity needs from cash flow from operations, cash on hand or amounts available under our financing arrangements, as Commercial Paper is now a more significant part of our overall cash management strategy.

Capital Expenditures

Capital expenditures were $37 million and $46 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Capital expenditures primarily related to machinery and equipment, distribution fleet, IT investments and replacement of existing cold drink equipment. In 2014, we expect to incur annual capital expenditures, net of proceeds from disposals, in an amount approximately 3.00% of our net sales, which we expect to fund through cash provided by operating activities.

Acquisitions

We may make future acquisitions, such as acquisitions of regional bottling companies, distributors and/or distribution rights to further extend our portfolio and geographic coverage. Any acquisitions may require additional funding for future capital expenditures and possibly restructuring expenses.

Liquidity

Based on our current and anticipated level of operations, we believe that our operating cash flows will be sufficient to meet our anticipated obligations for the next twelve months. To the extent that our operating cash flows are not sufficient to meet our liquidity needs, we may utilize cash on hand or amounts available under our financing arrangements, if necessary.

Table of Contents

The following table summarizes our cash activity for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 (in millions):



	For the Three Months Ended
	March 31,
	2014			2013
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	129		$	77
Net cash used in investing activities	(38		)	(61		)
Net cash used in financing activities	(123		)	(175		)

NET CASH PROVIDED BY OPERATING ACTIVITIES

Net cash provided by operating activities increased $52 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2013, primarily due to the increase in net income and favorable working capital comparisons to the prior year.

NET CASH USED IN INVESTING ACTIVITIES

Cash used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2014, consisted primarily of purchases of property, plant and equipment of $37 million. Purchases of property, plant and equipment have decreased over the prior period in line with our focus on reducing our purchases, net of proceeds from disposal of property, plant and equipment, in an amount approximately 3.00% of our current year net sales.

NET CASH USED IN FINANCING ACTIVITIES

Cash used in financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2014, consisted primarily of $90 million paid for shares not yet received, dividend payments of $75 million and stock repurchases of $60 million, partially offset by $85 million in net issuances of commercial paper. Net cash used in financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2013 primarily consisted of stock repurchases of $101 million and dividend payments of $70 million.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

As a result of the above items, cash and cash equivalents decreased $33 million since December 31, 2013 to $120 million as of March 31, 2014 primarily driven by returns to our shareholders partially offset by lower capital expenditures and working capital requirements.

Our cash balances are used to fund working capital requirements, scheduled debt and interest payments, capital expenditures, income tax obligations, dividend payments and repurchases of our common stock. Cash generated by our foreign operations is generally repatriated to the U.S. annually except when required to fund working capital requirements in those jurisdictions. Foreign cash balances were $51 million and $65 million as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. We accrue tax costs for repatriation, as applicable, as cash is generated in those foreign jurisdictions.

Dividends

Our Board declared dividends aggregating $0.41 and $0.38 per share on outstanding common stock during the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

Common Stock Repurchases

As previously disclosed, the Board has authorized the Company to repurchase an aggregate amount of up to $3,000 million of the Company's outstanding common stock. For the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company repurchased and retired 1.2 million and 2.3 million shares of common stock, respectively, valued at approximately $60 million and $101 million, respectively. Refer to Part II, Item 2 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information regarding these repurchases.

Table of Contents

Contractual Commitments and Obligations

We enter into various contractual obligations that impact, or could impact, our liquidity. Based on our current and anticipated level of operations, we believe that our proceeds from operating cash flows will be sufficient to meet our anticipated obligations. To the extent that our operating cash flows are not sufficient to meet our liquidity needs, we may utilize cash on hand or amounts available under our financing arrangements, if necessary. Refer to Note 5 of the Notes to our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding the Commercial Paper described in this table.

The following table summarizes our contractual obligations and contingencies as of March 31, 2014 (in millions):



			Payments Due in Year
	Total		2014		2015		2016		2017		2018		After 2018
Purchase obligations ⁽¹⁾	$	995	$	601	$	153	$	95	$	47	$	43	$	56
Commercial Paper	150		150		—		—		—		—		—
Total	$	1,145	$	751	$	153	$	95	$	47	$	43	$	56

____________________________


(1)	Amounts represent payments under agreements to purchase goods or services that are legally binding and that specify all significant terms, including capital obligations and long-term contractual obligations.

Through March 31, 2014, there have been no other material changes to the amounts disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

We currently participate in four multi-employer pension plans. In the event that we withdraw from participation in one of these plans, the plan will ultimately assess us a withdrawal liability for exiting the plan, and U.S. GAAP would require us to record the withdrawal charge as an expense in our consolidated statements of income and as a liability on our consolidated balance sheets once the multi-employer pension withdrawal charge is probable and estimable.

There are no other off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future material effect on our results of operations, financial condition, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources other than letters of credit outstanding. Refer to Note 5 of the Notes to our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding outstanding letters of credit.

EFFECT OF RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Refer to Note 1 of the Notes to our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for a discussion of recently issued accounting standards and recently adopted provisions of U.S. GAAP.

ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We are exposed to market risks arising from changes in market rates and prices, including movements in foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates and commodity prices. From time to time, we may enter into derivatives or other financial instruments to hedge or mitigate commercial risks. We do not enter into derivative instruments for speculation, investing or trading.

Foreign Exchange Risk

The majority of our net sales, expenses and capital purchases are transacted in U.S. dollars. However, we have some exposure with respect to foreign exchange rate fluctuations. Our primary exposure to foreign exchange rates is the Canadian dollar and Mexican peso against the U.S. dollar. Exchange rate gains or losses related to foreign currency transactions are recognized as transaction gains or losses in our income statement as incurred. As of March 31, 2014, the impact to our income from operations of a 10% change (up or down) in exchange rates is estimated to be an increase or decrease of approximately $20 million on an annual basis.

We use derivative instruments such as foreign exchange forward contracts to manage a portion of our exposure to changes in foreign exchange rates. As of March 31, 2014, we had derivative contracts outstanding with a notional value of $34 million maturing at various dates through December 15, 2014.

Table of Contents

Interest Rate Risk

We centrally manage our debt portfolio through the use of interest rate swaps and monitor our mix of fixed-rate and variable rate debt. At March 31, 2014, the carrying value of our fixed-rate debt, excluding capital leases, was $2,468 million, $720 million of which is designated as fair value hedges and exposed to variability in interest rates.

The following table is an estimate of the impact to the fair value hedges that could result from hypothetical interest rate changes during the term of the financial instruments, based on debt levels as of March 31, 2014:



Sensitivity Analysis
			Change in Fair Value
Hypothetical Change in Interest Rates	Annual Impact to Interest Expense		Other Current and Non-current Assets	Other Non-current Liabilities	Total Debt
1-percent decrease⁽¹⁾	$	—	$40 million increase	$20 million decrease	$60 million increase
1-percent increase	$7 million increase		$5 million decrease	$49 million increase	$54 million decrease

____________________________

(1)

We pay an average floating rate, which fluctuates periodically, based on LIBOR and a credit spread, as a result of designated fair value hedges on certain debt instruments. See Note 5 of the Notes to our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information. Our weighted average LIBOR rate as of March 31, 2014 was 0.27%. As LIBOR has not historically fallen below 0.16%, our estimate of the annual impact to interest expense reflects this assumption if our hypothetical change in the interest rate fell below the historical threshold.

Commodity Risks

We are subject to market risks with respect to commodities because our ability to recover increased costs through higher pricing may be limited by the competitive environment in which we operate. Our principal commodities risks relate to our purchases of PET, diesel fuel, corn (for high fructose corn syrup), aluminum, sucrose, apple juice concentrate, apples and natural gas (for use in processing and packaging).

We utilize commodities forward and future contracts and supplier pricing agreements to hedge the risk of adverse movements in commodity prices for limited time periods for certain commodities. The fair market value of these contracts as of March 31, 2014 was fully offsetting between the asset and liability.

As of March 31, 2014, the impact of a 10% change (up or down) in market prices for these commodities where the risk of adverse movements has not been hedged is estimated to be an increase or decrease of approximately $14 million to our income from operations for the remainder of 2014.

ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures

Based on evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has concluded that, as of March 31, 2014, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to (i) provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the Exchange Act filings is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms, and (ii) ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act are accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

No change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act) occurred during the quarter that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
