NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
(Unaudited)
1. General
References in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to we, our, us, DPS or the Company
refer to Dr Pepper Snapple Group, Inc. and all entities included in our unaudited condensed
consolidated financial statements. Cadbury plc and Cadbury Schweppes plc are hereafter collectively
referred to as Cadbury unless otherwise indicated.
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 Companys brands. All of the product names
included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are either DPS registered trademarks or those of
the Companys 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 Companys audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto in
the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008.
For the periods prior to May 7, 2008, the condensed consolidated financial statements have
been prepared on a carve-out basis from Cadburys consolidated financial statements using
historical results of operations, assets and liabilities attributable to Cadburys beverage
business in the United States, Canada, Mexico and the Caribbean (the Americas Beverages business)
and including allocations of expenses from Cadbury. The historical Americas Beverages business
information is the Companys predecessor financial information. The unaudited condensed
consolidated financial statements may not be indicative of the Companys future performance and may
not reflect what its consolidated results of operations, financial position and cash flows would
have been had the Company operated as an independent company during all of the periods presented.
The Company eliminates from its financial results all intercompany transactions between entities
included in the consolidation and the intercompany transactions with its equity method investees.
Prior to the May 7, 2008 separation, Cadbury provided certain corporate functions to the
Company and costs associated with these functions were allocated to the Company. These functions
included corporate communications, regulatory, human resources and benefit management, treasury,
investor relations, corporate controller, internal audit, Sarbanes Oxley compliance, information
technology, corporate and legal compliance, and community affairs. The costs of such services were
allocated to the Company based on the most relevant allocation method to the service provided,
primarily based on relative percentage of revenue or headcount. Management believes such
allocations were reasonable; however, they may not be indicative of the actual expense that would
have been incurred had the Company been operating as an independent company for all of the periods
presented. The charges for these functions are included primarily in selling, general, and
administrative expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
The Company has evaluated subsequent events through November 5, 2009, the date of issuance of
the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

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
amounts 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. The most significant estimates and judgments are reviewed
on an ongoing basis and revised when necessary. Actual amounts may differ from these estimates and
judgments. The Company has identified the following policies as critical accounting policies:
| revenue recognition; |
| customer marketing programs and incentives; |
| stock-based compensation; |
| pension and postretirement benefits; |
| risk management programs; |
| income taxes; |
| goodwill and other indefinite lived intangibles; and |
| definite lived intangible assets. |
These accounting estimates and related policies are discussed in greater detail in DPS Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008.
Restatement of Net Sales and Cost of Sales related to Intercompany Eliminations
As detailed in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008,
subsequent to the issuance of the Companys 2007 Combined Annual Financial Statements, the Company
identified an error in the presentation of the previously reported net sales and cost of sales
captions on the Statement of Operations. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008,
the Companys Condensed Combined Statement of Operations included $11 million and $35 million,
respectively, of intercompany transactions that should have been eliminated upon consolidation.
In order to correct the error, the net sales and cost of sales captions have been restated in
the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations from the amounts previously reported as follows
(in millions):
As Previously Reported | As Restated | |||||||||||||||
Net Sales | Cost of Sales | Net Sales | Cost of Sales | |||||||||||||
Three months ended September 30, 2008
|
$ | 1,505 | $ | 720 | $ | 1,494 | $ | 709 | ||||||||
Nine months ended September 30, 2008
|
4,369 | 2,003 | 4,334 | 1,968 |
These adjustments to the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations do not affect the
Companys Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, Condensed Consolidated Statements of Changes in
Stockholders Equity, Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, gross profit, income from
operations or net income.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards and Updates
In September 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting
Standard Update (ASU) No. 2009-12, Investments in Certain Entities That Calculate Net Asset Value
per Share (or Its Equivalent) (ASU No. 2009-12). The new standard addresses, among other things,
guidance necessary when using the net asset value per share to estimate the fair value of an
alternative investment. ASU No. 2009-12 is effective for the interim and annual reporting periods
ending after December 15, 2009. The Company will provide the required disclosures beginning with
the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2009. Based on the
initial evaluation, the Company does not anticipate a material impact to the Companys financial
position, results of operations or cash flows as a result of this change.
In June 2009, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 167, Amendments
to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R) (SFAS 167). The new standard addresses, among other things, the
application of certain key provisions of U.S. GAAP related to variable interest entities, including
those in which the accounting and disclosures under U.S. GAAP do not always provide timely and
useful information about an enterprises involvement in a variable interest entity. SFAS 167 is
effective for the annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009, and for all interim
periods subsequent to adoption. The Company will provide the required disclosures beginning with
the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2010. Based on the
initial evaluation, the Company does not anticipate a material impact to the Companys financial
position, results of operations or cash flows as a result of this change.
In December 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (FSP) No. 132(R)-1, Employers
Disclosures about Pensions and Other Postretirement Benefits (FSP 132R-1), which is codified in
the FASB Accounting Standards Codification Topic 715-20-50. FSP 132R-1 requires enhanced annual
disclosures about the plan assets of a companys defined benefit pension and other postretirement
plans intended to provide users of financial statements with a greater understanding of: (1) how
investment allocation decisions are made, including the factors that are pertinent to an
understanding of investment policies and strategies; (2) the major categories of plan assets; (3)
the inputs and valuation techniques used to measure the fair value of plan assets; (4) the effect
of fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) on changes in plan
assets for the period; and (5) significant concentrations of risk within plan assets. FSP 132R-1 is
effective for years ending after December 15, 2009. The Company will provide the required
disclosures beginning with the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ending December
31, 2009. This FSP will not have an impact on the Companys financial position, results of
operations or cash flows.
Recently Adopted Provisions of U.S. GAAP
In accordance with U.S. GAAP, the following provisions, which had no material impact on the
Companys financial position, results of operations or cash flows, were effective as of January 1,
2009.
| The portion of the fair value update to U.S. GAAP deferred by the FASB in February 2008 for all non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities, except those that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis (at least annually). |
| The establishment of accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and the deconsolidation of a subsidiary, including disclosure requirements that clearly identify and distinguish between the controlling and noncontrolling interests and that separate the disclosure of income attributable to the controlling and noncontrolling interests. |
| The change in the factors that should be considered in developing assumptions about renewal or extension used in estimating the useful life of a recognized intangible asset with a finite life under U.S. GAAP. The update is intended to improve the consistency between the useful life of a recognized intangible asset and the period of expected cash flows used to measure the fair value of the asset. The measurement provisions of this update applied only to intangible assets acquired after January 1, 2009. |

| The change in the disclosure requirements for derivative instruments and hedging activities, requiring enhanced disclosures about how and why an entity uses derivative instruments, how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for, and how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entitys financial position, financial performance and cash flows. The enhanced disclosure requirements are included within Note 12 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. |
| The change in accounting for business acquisitions, including the impact on financial statements both on the acquisition date and in subsequent periods. The Company will apply the guidance on all future business combinations subsequent to January 1, 2009. |
In accordance with U.S. GAAP and effective June 30, 2009, the Company adopted the following
provisions, which had no material impact on the Companys financial position, results of operations
or cash flows.
| The establishment of general standards regarding the accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. The additional disclosures are included within the section Basis of Presentation above. |
| The change in the disclosure requirements about the fair value of financial instruments in interim financial statements as well as in annual financial statements. The additional disclosures are included within Note 13 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. |

The Company conducts impairment tests on goodwill and all indefinite lived intangible assets
annually, as of December 31, or more frequently if circumstances indicate that the carrying amount
of an asset may not be recoverable. The Company uses present value and other valuation techniques
to make this assessment. If the carrying amount of goodwill exceeds its implied fair value or the
carrying amount of an intangible asset exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss is recognized in
an amount equal to that excess. DPS did not identify any circumstances that indicated that the
carrying amount of any goodwill or any indefinite lived intangible asset may not be recoverable
during the nine months ended September 30, 2009.

The following is a description of the Companys senior unsecured credit agreement and
revolving credit facility (collectively, the senior unsecured credit facility) and the senior
unsecured notes. The summaries of the senior unsecured credit facility and the senior unsecured
notes are qualified in their entirety by the specific terms and provisions of the senior unsecured
credit agreement and the indenture governing the senior unsecured notes, respectively, copies of
which have previously been filed, as referenced in the exhibits to the Companys Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008.
Senior Unsecured Credit Facility
The Companys senior unsecured credit agreement provides senior unsecured financing of up to
$2.7 billion, consisting of:
| A senior unsecured term loan A facility in an aggregate principal amount of $2.2 billion with a maturity in 2013. During the second quarter of 2008, DPS borrowed $2.2 billion under the term loan A facility. | ||
| A revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of $500 million with a maturity in 2013. The revolving credit facility was undrawn as of September 30, 2009, and December 31, 2008, except to the extent utilized by letters of credit. Up to $75 million of the revolving credit facility is available for the issuance of letters of credit, of which $41 million and $38 million was utilized as of September 30, 2009, and December 31, 2008, respectively. |

Borrowings under the senior unsecured credit facility bear interest at a floating rate per
annum based upon the London interbank offered rate for dollars (LIBOR) or the alternate base rate
(ABR), in each case plus an applicable margin which varies based upon the Companys debt ratings,
from 1.00% to 2.50%, in the case of LIBOR loans and 0.00% to 1.50% in the case of ABR loans. The
alternate base rate means the greater of (a) JPMorgan Chase Banks prime rate and (b) the federal
funds effective rate plus one half of 1%. Interest is payable on the last day of the
interest period, but not less than quarterly, in the case of any LIBOR loan and on the last day of
March, June, September and December of each year in the case of any ABR loan. The average interest
rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, was 4.9% and 4.8%, respectively.
Interest expense was $21 million and $31 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009 and
2008, and $69 million and $58 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008,
respectively. Amortization of deferred financing costs of $4 million each for the three months
ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, and $11 million and $7 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively, was included in interest expense.
The Company utilizes interest rate swaps to effectively convert variable interest rates to
fixed rates. See Note 12 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information
regarding derivatives.
An unused commitment fee is payable quarterly to the lenders on the unused portion of the
commitments in respect of the revolving credit facility equal to 0.15% to 0.50% per annum,
depending upon the Companys debt ratings. The Company incurred $1 million and less than $1 million
in unused commitment fees for the three months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively, and
$1 million each for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008. Additionally, interest
expense included $1 million and less than $1 million of amortization of deferred financing costs
associated with the revolving credit facility for the three months ended September 30, 2009 and
2008, respectively, and $2 million and $1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and
2008, respectively.
The Company is required to pay annual amortization in equal quarterly installments on the
aggregate principal amount of the term loan A equal to: (i) 10%, or $220 million, per year for
installments due in the first and second years following the initial date of funding, (ii) 15%, or
$330 million, per year for installments due in the third and fourth years following the initial
date of funding, and (iii) 50%, or $1.1 billion, for installments due in the fifth year following
the initial date of funding. Principal amounts outstanding under the revolving credit facility are
due and payable in full at maturity. The Company made optional principal repayments of $480 million
for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, covering all of its debt obligations (excluding
capital leases) through June 2011. Since the Companys separation from Cadbury, DPS has made
combined scheduled and optional repayments toward the principal totaling $875 million.
All obligations under the senior unsecured credit facility are guaranteed by substantially all
of the Companys existing and future direct and indirect domestic subsidiaries.
The senior unsecured credit facility contains customary negative covenants that, among other
things, restrict the Companys ability to incur debt at subsidiaries that are not guarantors; incur
liens; merge or sell, transfer, lease or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all assets; make
investments, loans, advances, guarantees and acquisitions; enter into transactions with affiliates;
and enter into agreements restricting its ability to incur liens or the ability of subsidiaries to
make distributions. These covenants are subject to certain exceptions described in the senior
credit agreement. In addition, the senior unsecured credit facility requires the Company to comply
with a maximum total leverage ratio covenant and a minimum interest coverage ratio covenant, as
defined in the senior credit agreement. The senior unsecured credit facility also contains certain
usual and customary representations and warranties, affirmative covenants and events of default. As
of September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, the Company was in compliance with all covenant
requirements.
Senior Unsecured Notes
The Company had $1.7 billion aggregate principal amount of senior unsecured notes outstanding
as of September 30, 2009, consisting of $250 million aggregate principal amount of 6.12% senior
notes due 2013, $1.2 billion aggregate principal amount of 6.82% senior notes due 2018, and $250
million aggregate principal amount of 7.45% senior notes due 2038. The weighted average interest
cost of the senior notes is 6.8%. Interest on the senior unsecured notes is payable semi-annually
on May 1 and November 1 and is subject to increase if either of two rating agencies downgrades the
debt rating associated with the notes. Interest expense was $30 million and $29 million for the
three months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively, and $88 million and $49 million for
the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively. Amortization of deferred financing
costs of $1 million and less than $1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009 and
2008, respectively and $1 million and less than $1 million for the nine months ended September 30,
2009 and 2008, respectively, was included in interest expense.

The indenture governing the notes, among other things, limits the Companys ability to incur
indebtedness secured by principal properties, to enter into certain sale and lease back
transactions and to enter into certain mergers or transfers of substantially all of
DPS assets. The notes are guaranteed by substantially all of the Companys existing and
future direct and indirect domestic subsidiaries.
Bridge Loan Facility
On April 11, 2008, DPS borrowed $1.7 billion under a senior unsecured bridge loan facility to
reduce financing risks and facilitate Cadburys separation of the Company. All of the proceeds from
the borrowings were placed into interest-bearing collateral accounts. On April 30, 2008, borrowings
under the bridge loan facility were released from the collateral account containing such funds and
returned to the lenders and the 364-day bridge loan facility was terminated. For the nine months
ended September 30, 2008, the Company incurred $24 million of costs associated with the bridge loan
facility. Financing fees of $21 million, which were expensed when the bridge loan facility was
terminated, and $5 million of interest expense were included as a component of interest expense.
These costs were partially offset as the Company earned $2 million in interest income on the bridge
loan while in escrow.
Capital Lease Obligations
Long-term capital lease obligations totaled $14 million and $17 million as of September 30,
2009, and December 31, 2008, respectively. Current obligations related to the Companys capital
leases were $3 million and $2 million as of September 30, 2009, and December 31, 2008,
respectively, and were included as a component of accounts payable and accrued expenses.

7. Income Taxes
The effective tax rates for the three months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 were 38.0% and
35.8%, respectively. The increase in the effective tax rate was driven by the reduced impact of
foreign operations and non-recurring separation related costs.
The effective tax rates for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 were 37.6% and
39.2%. The effective tax rate declined due to a reduced level of non-recurring separation related
costs and tax planning offset by the reduced impact of foreign operations.
The Companys Canadian deferred tax assets as of September 30, 2009, included a separation
related balance of $148 million that was offset by a liability due to Cadbury of $124 million
driven by the Tax Indemnity Agreement. Anticipated legislation in Canada could result in a future
partial write down of tax assets which would be offset to some extent by a partial write down of
the liability due to Cadbury.
Under the Tax Indemnity Agreement, Cadbury has agreed to indemnify DPS for net unrecognized
tax benefits and other tax related items of $403 million. This balance increased by $17 million
during the nine months ended September 30, 2009, and was offset by indemnity income recorded as a
component of other income in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. In
addition, pursuant to the terms of the Tax Indemnity Agreement, if DPS breaches certain covenants
or other obligations or DPS is involved in certain change-in-control transactions, Cadbury may not
be required to indemnify the Company.
The Internal Revenue Service concluded its audit of our 2003-2005 federal income tax returns.
The additional income tax expense incurred in the quarter was offset by indemnity income under the
provisions of the Tax Indemnity Agreement.
8. Restructuring Costs
The Company implements restructuring programs from time to time that are designed to improve
operating effectiveness and lower costs. When the Company implements these programs, it incurs
various charges, including severance and other employment related costs.
The Company did not incur any restructuring charges during the three and nine months ended
September 30, 2009. The Company does not expect to incur additional non-recurring charges
with respect to the restructuring programs listed below.

During the third quarter of 2008, DPS Compensation Committee approved the suspension of one
of the Companys principal defined benefit pension plans and the Company recorded a pension
curtailment charge of $2 million. The Company did not incur any curtailment charges during the nine
months ended September 30, 2009.
Total net periodic benefit costs for the U.S. postretirement benefit plans were less than $1
million for the three months ended September 30, 2009, $1 million each for the three months ended
September 30, 2008 and nine months ended September 30, 2009, and $2 million for the nine months
ended September 30, 2008. The estimated prior service cost, transitional obligation and estimated
net loss that will be amortized from accumulated other comprehensive loss into periodic benefit
cost for postretirement plans in 2009 are each less than $1 million.
The Company contributed $14 million and $41 million to its pension plans during the three and
nine months ended September 30, 2009, respectively, and does not expect to contribute any
additional funds to these plans during the remainder of 2009.
The Company also contributes to various multi-employer pension plans based on obligations
arising from certain of its collective bargaining agreements. The Company recognizes expense in
connection with these plans as contributions are funded. Contributions paid into multi-employer
defined benefit pension plans for employees under collective bargaining agreements were
approximately $2 million and $1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008,
respectively, and approximately $4 million and $3 million, for the nine months ended September 30,
2009 and 2008, respectively. Additionally, during the third quarter of 2009, a trustee-approved
mass withdrawal under one multi-employer plan was triggered and the trustee estimated the
unfunded vested liability for the Company. As a result of this action, the Company recognized
additional expense of approximately $3 million for the three and nine months ended September 30,
2009.

(1) | Prior to the Companys separation from Cadbury, certain of its employees participated in stock-based compensation plans sponsored by Cadbury. These plans provided employees with stock or options to purchase stock in Cadbury. The expense incurred by Cadbury for stock or stock options granted to DPS employees has been reflected in the Companys unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations in selling, general, and administrative expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2008. The interests of the Companys employees in certain Cadbury benefit plans were converted into one of three Company plans which were approved by the Companys sole stockholder on May 5, 2008. As a result of this conversion, the participants in these three plans are fully vested in and will receive shares of common stock of the Company on designated future dates. The aggregate number of shares of the Companys common stock as of September 30, 2009, that are to be distributed under these plans is approximately 200,000 shares. |
The Companys Omnibus Stock Incentive Plans of 2008 and 2009 (collectively, the DPS Stock

11. 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 sets forth the computation of basic EPS utilizing the
net income for the respective period and the Companys basic shares outstanding and presents the
computation of diluted EPS (in millions, except per share data):

(1) | For periods prior to May 7, 2008, the date DPS distributed the common stock of DPS to Cadbury plc shareholders, the same number of shares is being used for diluted EPS as for basic EPS as no common stock of DPS was previously outstanding and no DPS equity awards were outstanding for the prior periods. Subsequent to May 7, 2008, the number of basic shares includes approximately 500,000 shares related to former Cadbury benefit plans converted to DPS shares on a daily volume weighted average. See Note 10 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for information regarding the Companys stock-based compensation plans. | |
(2) | Anti-dilutive stock options and RSUs totaling 1.1 million shares were excluded from the diluted weighted average shares outstanding for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2009. Anti-dilutive weighted average options totaling 1.3 million shares and 0.7 million shares were excluded from the diluted weighted average shares outstanding for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2008, respectively. |
12. 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. |
The Company manages these risks through a variety of strategies, including the use of interest
rate swaps, foreign exchange forward contracts, commodity futures contracts and supplier pricing
agreements.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)
The Company formally designates and accounts for interest rate swaps and foreign exchange
forward contracts that meet established accounting criteria under U.S. GAAP as cash flow hedges.
DPS assesses hedge effectiveness and measures hedge ineffectiveness at least quarterly throughout
the designated period. The effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative instruments is
recorded, net of applicable taxes, in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) (AOCI), 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 instruments deferred in AOCI is reclassified to net
income and is reported as a component of the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of
Operations. Changes in the fair value of the derivative instruments that do not effectively offset
changes in the fair value of the underlying hedged item throughout the designated hedge period
(ineffectiveness) are recorded in net income each period.
Interest Rates
DPS manages its exposure to volatility in floating interest rates on borrowings under its
senior unsecured credit facility through the use of interest rate swaps that effectively convert
variable interest rates to fixed rates. The intent of entering into interest rate swaps is to
provide predictability in the Companys overall cost structure. During the third quarter of 2008,
the Company entered into interest rate swaps effective September 30, 2008, with notional amounts of
$500 million and $1.2 billion, respectively. The interest rate swap with the notional amount of
$500 million matured in March 2009. During the nine months ended September 30, 2009, DPS maintained
the other interest rate swaps with a notional amount of $1.2 billion and maturity date of December
31, 2009. In February 2009, the Company entered into an interest rate swap effective December 31,
2009, with a duration of 12 months and a $750 million notional amount that amortizes at the rate of
$100 million every quarter.
Foreign Exchange
The Companys 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. The
Company uses foreign exchange forward contracts to hedge operational exposures resulting from
changes in these foreign currency exchange rates. The intent of the foreign exchange contracts is
to provide predictability in the Companys overall cost structure. These foreign exchange
contracts, carried at fair value, have maturities between one and 12 months. As of September 30,
2009, the Company had outstanding foreign exchange forward contracts with notional amounts of $29
million. There were no hedge instruments in place for the three or nine months ended September 30,
2008, that qualified for hedge accounting under U.S. GAAP.
Commodities
DPS centrally manages the exposure to volatility in the prices of certain commodities used in
its production process through futures contracts and supplier pricing agreements. The intent of
contracts and agreements is to provide predictability in the Companys overall cost structure. The
Company enters into futures contracts that economically hedge certain of its risks, although hedge
accounting under U.S. GAAP may not apply. In these cases, there exists a natural hedging
relationship 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 Operations as the hedged
transaction. Gains and losses are recognized as a component of unallocated corporate costs until
the Companys 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 segments operating
profit.

For more information on the valuation of derivative instruments, see Note 13 to the Condensed
Consolidated Financial Statements. The Company has exposure to credit losses from derivative
instruments in an asset position in the event of nonperformance by the counterparties to the
agreements. Historically, DPS has not experienced credit losses as a result of counterparty
nonperformance. The Company selects and periodically reviews counterparties based on credit
ratings, limits its exposure to a single counterparty under defined guidelines, and monitors the
market position of the programs at least on a quarterly basis.
13. Fair Value
In accordance with U.S. GAAP, the Company defines fair value 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 entitys own assumptions.

Capital leases have been excluded from the calculation of fair value for both 2009 and 2008.
The fair value amounts for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, net and accounts
payable and accrued expenses approximate carrying amounts due to the short maturities of these
instruments. The fair value amounts of long term debt as of September 30, 2009, and December 31,
2008, were estimated based on quoted market prices for traded securities. 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.
14. Commitments and Contingencies
Legal Matters
The Company is occasionally subject to litigation or other legal proceedings. Set forth below
is a description of the Companys significant pending legal matters. Although the estimated range
of loss, if any, for the pending legal matters described below cannot be estimated at this time,
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 business or financial
condition of the Company, although such matters may have a material adverse effect on the Companys
results of operations or cash flows in a particular period.

Snapple Distributor Litigation
In 2004, one of the Companys subsidiaries, Snapple Beverage Corp., and several affiliated
entities of Snapple Beverage Corp., including Snapple Distributors Inc., were sued in United States
District Court, Southern District of New York, by 57 area route distributors for alleged price
discrimination, breach of contract, retaliation, tortious interference and breach of the implied
duty of good faith and fair dealing arising out of their respective area route distributor
agreements. Each plaintiff sought damages in excess of $225 million. The plaintiffs initially filed
the case as a class action but withdrew their class certification motion. On September 14, 2007,
that court granted the Companys motion for summary judgment, dismissing the plaintiffs federal
claims of price discrimination and dismissing, without prejudice, the plaintiffs remaining claims
under state law. The plaintiffs filed an appeal of the decision and on September 22, 2009, the
appellate court affirmed the judgment of the district court. The plaintiffs may decide to re-file
the state law claims in state court. The Company believes it has meritorious defenses with respect
to the state law claims and will defend itself vigorously if the plaintiffs decide to re-file in
state court. However, there is no assurance that the outcome of any trial, if claims are refiled,
will be in the Companys favor.
Snapple Litigation Labeling Claims
Snapple Beverage Corp. has been sued in various jurisdictions generally alleging that
Snapples labeling of certain of its drinks is misleading and/or deceptive. These cases have been
filed as class actions and, generally, seek unspecified damages on behalf of the class, including
enjoining Snapple from various labeling practices, disgorging profits, reimbursing of monies paid
for product and treble damages. The cases and their status are as follows:
| In 2007, Snapple Beverage Corp. was sued by Stacy Holk in New Jersey Superior Court, Monmouth County. Subsequent to filing, the Holk case was removed to the United States District Court, District of New Jersey. Snapple filed a motion to dismiss the Holk case on a variety of grounds. In June 2008, the district court granted Snapples motion to dismiss. The plaintiff appealed and in August 2009, the appellate court reversed the judgment and remanded to the district court for further proceedings. | ||
| In 2007, the attorneys in the Holk case also filed a new action in the United States District Court, Southern District of New York on behalf of plaintiffs, Evan Weiner and Timothy McClausland. This case was stayed during the pendency of the Holk motion to dismiss and appeal. This stay is now lifted, the Company filed its answer and the case will proceed. | ||
| In April 2009, Snapple Beverage Corp. was sued by Frances Von Koenig in the United States District Court, Eastern District of California. A motion to dismiss has been filed in the Von Koenig case. | ||
| In August 2009, Guy Cadwell filed suit against Dr Pepper Snapple Group, Inc. in the United States District Court, Southern District of California. This case has been transferred to the United States District Court, Eastern District of California and is under consideration by that court for consolidation with the Von Koenig case. |
The Company believes it has meritorious defenses to the claims asserted in each of these cases
and will defend itself vigorously. However, there is no assurance that the outcome of these cases
will be favorable to the Company.
Robert Jones v. Seven Up/RC Bottling Company of Southern California, Inc.
Nicolas Steele v. Seven Up/RC Bottling Company Inc.
California Wage Audit
In 2007, one of the Companys subsidiaries, Seven Up/RC Bottling Company Inc., was sued by
Robert Jones in the Superior Court in the State of California (Orange County), alleging that its
subsidiary failed to provide meal and rest periods and itemized wage statements in accordance with
applicable California wage and hour law. The case was filed as a class action. The class, which has
not yet been certified, consists of employees who have held a delivery driver position in
California in the past three years. The potential class size could be substantially higher due to
the number of individuals who have held these positions over the three year period. On behalf of
the class, the plaintiffs claim lost wages, waiting time penalties and other penalties for each
violation of the statute. The Company believes it has meritorious defenses to the claims asserted
and will defend itself vigorously. However, there is no assurance that the outcome of this matter
will be in its favor. A case filed by Nicolas Steele, et al. in the same court based on similar facts and
causes of action, but involving merchandisers, has been settled for an amount that is not material
to the Company.

The Company has been requested to conduct an audit of its meal and rest periods for all
non-exempt employees in California at the direction of the California Department of Labor. At this
time, the Company has declined to conduct such an audit until there is judicial clarification of
the intent of the statute. The Company cannot predict the outcome of such an audit.
Environmental, Health and Safety Matters
The Company operates many manufacturing, bottling and distribution facilities. In these and
other aspects of the Companys business, it is subject to a variety of federal, state and local
environment, 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 Companys 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. However, the Company is not currently named as a party in any judicial or
administrative proceeding relating to environmental, health and safety matters which would
materially affect its operations.
Compliance Matters
The Company is currently undergoing state audits for the years 1981 through 2008, spanning
nine states and seven of the Companys entities within the Packaged Beverages segment. The Company
has accrued an estimated liability based on the current facts and circumstances. However, there is
no assurance of the outcome of the audits.
15. Segments
The Company presents segment information in accordance with U.S. GAAP, which established
reporting and disclosure standards for an enterprises operating segments. Operating segments are
defined as components of an enterprise that are businesses for which separate financial information
is available and for which the financial information is regularly reviewed by the companys chief
executive officer.
Effective January 1, 2009, the Company modified its internal reporting and operating segments
to better reflect its business structure and to provide greater clarity and transparency.
Accordingly, the operating segments reported within this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q reflect the
changes to the internal reporting structure and operating segments.
The Companys operating structure consisted of the following three operating segments as of
September 30, 2009:
| The Beverage Concentrates segment reflects sales of the Companys branded concentrates and syrup to third party bottlers primarily in the United States and Canada. Most of the brands in this segment are carbonated soft drink brands. | ||
| The Packaged Beverages segment reflects sales in the United States and Canada from the manufacture and distribution of finished beverages and other products, including sales of the Companys own brands and third party brands, through both DSD and warehouse direct delivery systems. | ||
| The Latin America Beverages segment reflects sales in the Mexico and Caribbean markets from the manufacture and distribution of both concentrates and finished beverages. |

The Company has made the following changes to its financial segment information:
| Intersegment sales. All intersegment sales are made at cost and intersegment eliminations are reported as part of the segment results. | ||
| Allocations of certain trade and marketing costs. Trade and marketing expenditures are allocated to the Beverage Concentrates and Packaged Beverages segments based on brand volume. | ||
| Allocations of overhead and selling costs. Certain overhead costs, which are managed at a corporate level, such as information technology, back-office shared services, finance, research and development and human resources, are no longer allocated to the segments. These costs are now reported as unallocated corporate costs. Additionally, the Company has changed its allocation methodology for certain combined selling activities. | ||
| Other adjustments previously excluded from the segment profitability measures. Certain items, such as LIFO inventory adjustments, the impact of foreign exchange, and other income and expense items that previously were included in the other line item within adjustments are reported as a component of segment operating profit (SOP). |
Segment results are based on management reports. Net sales and SOP are the significant
financial measures used to assess the operating performance of the Companys operating segments.

16. Related Party Transactions
Allocated Expenses
Prior to the Companys separation from Cadbury, Cadbury allocated certain costs to the
Company, including costs for certain corporate functions provided for the Company by Cadbury. These
allocations were based on the most relevant allocation method for the services provided. To the
extent expenses were paid by Cadbury on behalf of the Company, they were allocated based upon the
direct costs incurred. Where specific identification of expenses was not practicable, the costs of
such services were allocated based upon the most relevant allocation method to the services
provided, primarily either as a percentage of net sales or headcount of the Company. The Company
was allocated $6 million of costs for the nine months ended September 30, 2008. Post separation,
there were no expenses allocated to DPS from Cadbury.
Cash Management
Prior to separation, the Companys cash was available for use and was regularly swept by
Cadbury operations in the United States at Cadburys discretion. Cadbury also funded the Companys
operating and investing activities as needed. Following the separation, the Company has funded its
liquidity needs from cash flow from operations.
Interest Expense and Interest Income
The Company recorded interest expense of $67 million for the nine months ended September 30,
2008, related to interest bearing related party debt with other wholly-owned subsidiaries of
Cadbury that were unrelated to the Companys business.
The Company recorded $19 million of interest income for the nine months ended September 30,
2008, related to a note receivable balance with wholly-owned subsidiaries of Cadbury.
Upon the Companys separation from Cadbury, the Company settled outstanding receivable, debt
and payable balances with Cadbury except for amounts due under the Separation and Distribution
Agreement, Transition Services Agreement, Tax Indemnity Agreement, and Employee Matters Agreement.
17. Guarantor and Non-Guarantor Financial Information
The Companys 6.12% senior notes due 2013, 6.82% senior notes due 2018 and 7.45% senior notes
due 2038 (the Notes) are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by substantially all of the
Companys existing and future direct and indirect domestic subsidiaries (except two immaterial
subsidiaries associated with the Companys charitable foundations) (the Guarantors), as defined
in the indenture governing the Notes. The Guarantors are wholly-owned either directly or indirectly
by the Company and jointly and severally guarantee the Companys obligations under the Notes. None
of the Companys subsidiaries organized outside of the United States guarantee the Notes.
As detailed in Note 1 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, the Company
identified an error in the presentation of the previously reported net sales and cost of sales
captions on the Statement of Operations. For the nine months ended September 30, 2008, the
Companys Condensed Combined Statement of Operations included $35 million of intercompany
transactions that should have been eliminated upon consolidation.
In order to correct the error, the net sales and cost of sales captions related to the
Guarantor financial information has been restated in the Condensed Consolidating Statement of
Operations from the amounts previously reported as follows (in millions):
As Previously Reported | As Restated | |||||||||||||||
Net Sales | Cost of Sales | Net Sales | Cost of Sales | |||||||||||||
Nine months ended September 30, 2008 |
$ | 3,918 | $ | 1,827 | $ | 3,883 | $ | 1,792 |
No restatement is required for the three month period ending September 30, 2008 as the
Guarantor financial information for that period was not previously reported.

Snapple Group, Inc. did not have any operations. Accordingly, activity for Dr Pepper Snapple
Group, Inc. (the Parent) is reflected in the consolidating statements from May 7, 2008 forward.

Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
You should read the following discussion in conjunction with our audited consolidated
financial statements and notes thereto in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2008.
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 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, 2008. 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 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.

the United States, Canada and Mexico, with a diverse portfolio of flavored (non-cola) carbonated
soft drinks (CSD) and non-carbonated beverages (NCB), including ready-to-drink teas, juices,
juice drinks and mixers. Our brand portfolio includes popular CSD brands such as Dr Pepper, 7UP,
Sunkist soda, A&W, Canada Dry, Crush, Schweppes, Squirt and Peñafiel, and NCB brands such as
Snapple, Motts, Hawaiian Punch, Clamato, Venom Energy, Mr & Mrs T, Margaritaville and Roses. Our
largest brand, Dr Pepper, is the #2 selling flavored CSD in the United States 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 a brand owner, a manufacturer and a distributor through our three segments. We
believe our brand ownership, manufacturing and distribution are more integrated than the U.S.
operations of our principal competitors and that this differentiation provides us with a
competitive advantage. We believe our integrated business model strengthens our route-to-market,
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
Direct Store Delivery (DSD) and warehouse direct delivery systems, which 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.
Effective January 1, 2009, we modified our internal reporting and operating segments to better
reflect our business structure and to provide greater clarity and transparency. Accordingly, the
operating segments reported within this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q reflect the changes to our
internal reporting structure and our operating segments: Beverage Concentrates, Packaged Beverages
and Latin America Beverages.

We have made the following changes to our financial segment information:
| Intersegment sales. All intersegment sales are made at cost and intersegment eliminations are reported as part of the segment results. | ||
| Allocations of certain trade and marketing costs. Trade and marketing expenditures are allocated to the Beverage Concentrates and Packaged Beverages segments based on brand volume. | ||
| Allocations of overhead and selling costs. Certain overhead costs, which are managed at a corporate level, such as information technology, back-office shared services, finance, research and development and human resources, are no longer allocated to the segments. These costs are now reported as unallocated corporate costs. Additionally, we have changed our allocation methodology for certain combined selling activities. | ||
| Other adjustments previously excluded from the segment profitability measures. Certain items, such as LIFO inventory adjustments, the impact of foreign exchange, and other income and expense items that previously were included in the other line item within adjustments are reported as a component of segment operating profit (SOP). |
Beverage Concentrates
Our Beverage Concentrates segment is principally a brand ownership business. In this segment
we manufacture beverage concentrates and syrups for sale primarily in the United States and Canada.
Most of the brands in this segment are CSD brands. Key brands include Dr Pepper, 7UP, Sunkist soda,
A&W, Canada Dry, Crush, Schweppes, Squirt, RC, Sundrop, Diet Rite, Welchs, Vernors and Country
Time and the concentrate form of Hawaiian Punch.
Almost all of our beverage concentrates are manufactured at our plant in St. Louis, Missouri.
The beverage concentrates are shipped to third party bottlers, as well as to our own manufacturing
system, who combine them with carbonation, water, sweeteners and other ingredients, PET containers,
glass bottles and aluminum cans, and sell them as a finished beverage to retailers. Concentrate
prices historically have been reviewed and adjusted at least on an annual basis.
Syrup 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.
Our Beverage Concentrates brands are sold by our 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 both a brand ownership and a 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 United States and Canada. Key NCB brands in this segment include Snapple, Motts, Hawaiian
Punch, Clamato, Yoo-Hoo, Mr and Mrs T, Roses and Margaritaville. Key CSD brands in this segment
include Dr Pepper, 7UP, Sunkist soda, A&W, Canada Dry, Squirt, Diet Rite and Venom Energy.
Additionally, we distribute third party brands such as FIJI mineral water and AriZona tea and a
portion of our sales come 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 several facilities across the United
States 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 direct store delivery, supported by a
fleet of more than 5,000 trucks and approximately 12,000 employees, including sales
representatives, merchandisers, drivers and warehouse workers, as well as through warehouse direct
sales to all major retail channels, including supermarkets, fountains, 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 both a brand ownership and a 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 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 and syrups or packaged beverages.
Volume in Bottler Case Sales
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. Bottler case sales are calculated based upon volumes from both our distribution
system and volumes reported to us by third party bottlers.
Beverage Concentrates Sales Volume
In our beverage concentrates and syrup businesses, we measure our sales volume in two
ways: concentrates case sales and bottler case sales. The unit of measurement for both
concentrates case sales and bottler case sales equals 288 fluid ounces of packaged beverage, or 24
twelve ounce servings.
Concentrates case sales represent our physical volume of concentrates and syrup shipments to
bottlers, retailers and independent distributors. They are the measure upon which our net sales is
based and a concentrate case is the amount of concentrate needed to make one case of 288 fluid
ounces of packaged beverages.
Bottler case sales and concentrates case sales 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. 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 businesses, we measure volume as case sales to customers. A case
sale represents a unit of measurement equal to 288 fluid ounces of packaged beverages sold by us.
Case sales include both our owned brands and certain brands licensed to and/or distributed by us.

Results of Operations
For the periods prior to May 7, 2008, our condensed consolidated financial statements have
been prepared on a carve-out basis from Cadburys consolidated financial statements using
historical results of operations, assets and liabilities attributable to Cadburys beverage
business in the United States, Canada, Mexico and the Caribbean (the Americas Beverages business)
and including allocations of expenses from Cadbury. The historical Americas Beverages business
information is our predecessor financial information. We eliminate from our financial results all
intercompany transactions between entities included in the combination and the intercompany
transactions with our equity method investees.

Volume. Volume (BCS) increased 3% for the three months ended September 30, 2009, compared with
the year ago period. In the U.S. and Canada, volumes increased 3% and in Mexico and the Caribbean,
volumes increased 9%. CSD volumes increased 4% and NCB volumes increased slightly. The absence of
Hansen Natural Corporation (Hansen) product sales following the contract termination settlement
in the U.S. and Mexico negatively impacted both total volumes and CSD volumes by one percentage
point for the three months ended September 30, 2009. In Beverage Concentrates and Latin American Beverages, Crush added an incremental 13 million
cases to volume for the three months ended September 30, 2009 due to expanded distribution in the
U.S. and the launch of Crush value offerings in Mexico. In CSDs, Dr Pepper volumes increased by 3% compared
with the year ago period. Our Core 4 brands, which include 7UP, Sunkist soda, A&W and Canada Dry
(collectively, the Core 4) decreased 3% compared to the year ago period. In NCBs, a 6% decline in
Snapple was partially offset by a 3% growth in Hawaiian Punch compared with the year ago period.
Snapple volume declined primarily due to higher net pricing associated with the Snapple premium
product restage and the impact of a slowdown in consumer spending on premium beverage products. We
are extending and repositioning our Snapple offerings to support the long term health of the brand.
Net Sales. Net sales decreased $60 million, or 4%, for the three months ended September 30,
2009, compared with the year ago period. The impact of the contract termination with Hansen reduced
net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2009, by $64 million. Additionally, the impact
of foreign currency reduced net sales by approximately $25 million. These decreases were partially
offset by price increases and an increase in volumes, primarily driven by expanded distribution of
Crush.
Gross Profit. Gross profit increased $70 million for the three months ended September 30,
2009, compared with the year ago period as a decrease in commodity costs and the impact of price
increases offset the decline in net sales. Gross margin for the three months ended September 30,
2009, increased to 60%, from 53% for the year ago period.

Table of Contents
Income from Operations. Income from operations increased $59 million to $272 million for the
three months ended September 30, 2009, compared with the year ago period driven by the increase in
gross profit and a reduction in restructuring costs, partially offset by an increase in selling,
general and administrative (SG&A) expenses. The increase in SG&A expenses was primarily
attributable to increased compensation-related expenses, partially offset by a reduction in
transportation costs as a result of lower fuel prices.
Interest Expense, Interest Income and Other Income. Interest expense decreased $8 million
compared with the year ago period. Interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2009,
reflects our capital structure as a stand-alone company and principally relates to our term loan A
facility and senior unsecured notes. The $2 million decrease in interest income was due to the loss
of interest income earned on note receivable balances with subsidiaries of Cadbury prior to our
separation. Other income of $20 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009, includes $3
million related to indemnity income associated with the Tax Indemnity Agreement with Cadbury and an
additional $16 million of one-time separation related items resulting from an audit settlement
during the third quarter of 2009.
Provision for Income Taxes. The effective tax rates for the three months ended September 30,
2009 and 2008 were 38.0% and 35.8%, respectively. The increase in the effective rate for the three
months ended September 30, 2009, was primarily driven by the reduced impact of foreign operations
and non-recurring separation related costs of $3 million.
Results of Operations by Segment
We report our business in three segments: Beverage Concentrates, Packaged Beverages and Latin
America Beverages. The key financial measures management uses to assess the performance of our
segments are net sales and SOP. The following tables set forth net sales and SOP for our segments

Net sales increased $29 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009, compared with
the year ago period due to a 7% increase in concentrate case sale volumes along with concentrate
price increases. The expanded distribution of Crush added an incremental $20 million to net sales
for the three months ended September 30, 2009. The increase in net sales was partially offset by
higher coupon spending and an increase in fountain food service discounts.
SOP increased $32 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009, as compared with the
year ago period, primarily driven by the increase in net sales in the
current period and unfavorable inventory adjustments in the prior
period. These favorable trends were
partially offset by increased marketing investment and compensation-related expenses.
Volume (BCS) increased 5% for the three months ended September 30, 2009, as compared with the
year ago period, primarily driven by the expanded distribution of Crush, which added an incremental
12 million cases in 2009. Dr Pepper increased 3% led by the launch of the Cherry line extensions
and increased Diet Dr Pepper distribution. The Core 4 brands decreased 2%.

Sales volumes decreased approximately 3% for the three months ended September 30, 2009,
compared with the year ago period. The absence of sales of Hansens products following the contract
termination settlement negatively impacted total volumes by approximately 2%. Total CSD volumes
decreased slightly. Dr Pepper volumes increased low single digits led by the launch of the Cherry
line extensions, offset by low single digit volume declines within our Core 4 brands. Total NCB
volumes remained relatively flat as a shift to value products increased Hawaiian Punch volumes,
while other NCB brands showed volume declines.
Net sales decreased $72 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009, compared with
the year ago period. Hansens termination reduced net sales for the three months ended September
30, 2009, by $59 million. Net sales were unfavorably impacted by volume decreases and unfavorable
product mix, offset by price increases, primarily in CSDs and Snapple.
SOP increased $37 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009, compared with the
year ago period primarily due to lower costs for packaging materials, sweeteners and other
commodity costs, as well as a decrease in fuel and transportation costs. These increases in SOP
were partially offset by higher marketing and costs associated with information technology (IT)
infrastructure upgrades. Hansens termination reduced SOP by approximately $11 million.

Sales volumes increased 9% for the three months ended September 30, 2009, compared with the
year ago period. The increase in volumes was driven by additional distribution routes, gains in
Crush with the introduction of new flavors in a 2.3 liter value offering and gains in Peñafiel,
which benefited from a new marketing campaign.
Net sales decreased $17 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009, compared with
the year ago period primarily due to the impact of changes in foreign currency and the absence of
sales of Hansens products following the contract termination settlement, partially offset by
increases in sales volumes. The devaluation of the Mexican peso against the U.S. dollar resulted in
a $20 million decrease in net sales and the absence of Hansens sales reduced net sales by $5
million.
SOP decreased $9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009, primarily due to the
$7 million associated with the devaluation of the Mexican peso, combined with Hansens termination,
a shift to value products and increased distribution costs from route expansion, partially offset
by growth in sales volume.

Volume. Volume (BCS) increased 4% for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, compared with
the year ago period. In the U.S. and Canada, volumes increased 4% and in Mexico and the Caribbean,
volumes increased 3%. CSD volumes increased 4% and NCB volumes increased 3%. The absence of Hansen
sales following the contract termination settlement in the U.S. and Mexico negatively impacted both
total volumes and CSD volumes by one percentage point for the nine
months ended September 30, 2009. In
Beverage Concentrates and Latin America Beverages, Crush added an incremental 36 million cases to volume for the nine months ended September
30, 2009, due to expanded distribution in the U.S. and the launch of Crush value offerings in
Mexico. In CSDs, Dr Pepper volumes increased by 3% compared with the year ago period. Our Core 4 brands
decreased 2%. In NCBs, 17% growth in Hawaiian Punch and 3% growth in Motts were partially offset
by a 14% decline in Snapple compared with the year ago period. Snapple volume declined primarily
due to higher net pricing associated with the Snapple premium product restage and the impact of a
slow down in consumer spending on premium beverage products. We are extending and repositioning our
Snapple offerings to support the long term health of the brand.
Net Sales. Net sales decreased $159 million, or 4%, for the nine months ended September 30,
2009, compared with the year ago period. The impact of the contract termination settlement with
Hansen reduced net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, by $187 million.
Additionally, the impact of foreign currency reduced net sales by approximately $85 million. These
decreases were partially offset by price increases and an increase in volumes, primarily driven by
expanded distribution of Crush.
Gross Profit. Gross profit increased $103 million for the nine months ended September 30,
2009, compared with the year ago period as a decrease in commodity costs and the impact of price
increases offset the decline in net sales. Gross margin for the nine months ended September 30,
2009, increased to 59% from 55% for the year ago period.
Income from Operations. Income from operations increased $166 million to $834 million for the
nine months ended September 30, 2009, compared with the year ago period. The increase was driven by
the increase in gross profit, a reduction in restructuring costs and one-time gains of $51 million
and $11 million related to the termination of the Hansen distribution agreements and the sale of
Crush distribution rights, respectively. SG&A expenses increased primarily due to an increase in
compensation-related costs, partially offset by decreased transportation costs as a result of lower
fuel prices.
In October 2008, Hansen notified us that they were terminating our agreements to distribute
Monster Energy as well as other Hansens branded beverages in the U.S. effective November 10, 2008.
In December 2008, Hansen notified us that they were terminating the agreement to distribute Monster
Energy drinks in Mexico, effective January 26, 2009. During the nine months ended September 30,
2009, we recognized a one-time gain of $51 million associated with the termination of the
distribution agreements (receipt of termination payments of $53 million less the write-off of
intangible assets of $2 million), recorded as a component of other operating income.
In January 2009, we sold certain distribution rights for the Crush brand for portions of the
midwest United States to a Pepsi affiliated bottler. As part of this transaction, we acquired
certain distribution rights for various brands in the midwest from that Pepsi affiliated bottler.
We realized a net gain associated with this transaction of $11 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 2009, recorded as a component of other operating income.
Interest Expense, Interest Income and Other Income. Interest expense decreased $41 million
compared with the year ago period. Interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2009,
reflects our capital structure as a stand-alone company and principally relates to our term loan A
facility and senior unsecured notes. During the nine months ended September 30, 2008, we incurred
$26 million related to our bridge loan facility, including $21 million of financing fees expensed
when the bridge loan facility was terminated on April 30, 2008, and additional interest expense on
debt balances with subsidiaries of Cadbury prior to our separation. Interest income decreased $27
million compared to the year ago period due to the loss of interest income earned on note
receivable balances with subsidiaries of Cadbury prior to our separation. Other income of $25
million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, includes $9 million of recurring items
related to indemnity income associated with the Tax Indemnity Agreement with Cadbury and an
additional $16 million of one-time separation related items resulting from an audit settlement
during the third quarter of 2009.
Provision for Income Taxes. The effective tax rates for the nine months ended September 30,
2009 and 2008 were 37.6% and 39.2%, respectively. The effective tax rate declined due to a reduced
level of non-recurring separation related costs and tax planning offset by the reduced impact of
foreign operations. The current period includes non-recurring separation related costs of $3
million.

Results of Operations by Segment
We report our business in three segments: Beverage Concentrates, Packaged Beverages and Latin
America Beverages. The key financial measures management uses to assess the performance of our
segments are net sales and SOP. The following tables set forth net sales and SOP for our segments
for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, as well as the adjustments necessary to
reconcile our total segment results to our consolidated results presented in accordance with
U.S. GAAP (in millions).

Net sales increased $62 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, compared with
the year ago period due to concentrate price increases combined with a 6% increase in concentrate
case sale volumes. The expanded distribution of Crush added an incremental $58 million to net sales
for the nine months ended September 30, 2009. The increase in net sales was partially offset by
higher food fountain service discounts and coupon spending.
SOP increased $66 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, as compared with the
year ago period, primarily driven by the increase in net sales in the
current period and unfavorable inventory adjustments in the prior
period. These favorable trends were
partially offset by increased marketing investment and compensation-related expenses.
Volume (BCS) increased 4% for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, as compared with the
year ago period, primarily driven by the expanded distribution of Crush, which added an incremental
33 million cases in 2009. Dr Pepper increased 3% led by the launch of the Cherry line extensions
and increased Diet Dr Pepper distribution. The Core 4 brands decreased 1%.

Sales volumes increased slightly for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, compared with
the year ago period. The absence of sales of Hansens products following the contract termination
settlement negatively impacted total volumes by approximately 2%. Increased promotional activities
drove strong double-digit volume increases in Hawaiian Punch. Snapple volumes declined low
double-digits primarily due to higher net pricing associated with the Snapple premium products
restage and a weaker economy affecting sales of premium-priced beverage products. Dr Pepper volumes
increased low single digits led by the launch of the Cherry line extensions. Volumes of our Core 4
brands remained flat.
Net sales decreased $153 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, compared with
the year ago period. Hansens termination reduced net sales for the nine months ended September 30,
2009, by $174 million. Excluding the impact of Hansens termination, net sales were favorably
impacted by price increases, primarily in CSDs and Snapple, and volume increases offset by
unfavorable product mix.
SOP increased $70 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, compared with the year
ago period primarily due to lower costs for packaging materials, sweeteners and other commodity
costs, as well as a decrease in fuel and transportation costs. These increases in SOP were
partially offset by higher marketing costs and costs associated with IT infrastructure upgrades.
Hansens termination reduced SOP by approximately $36 million.

Sales volumes increased 3% for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, compared with the
year ago period. The increase in volumes was driven by additional distribution routes, gains in
Crush with the introduction of new flavors in a 2.3 liter value offering and gains in Peñafiel,
which benefited from a new marketing campaign, partially offset by declines in Squirt.
Net sales decreased $68 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, compared with
the year ago period primarily due to the impact of changes in foreign currency and the absence of
sales of Hansens products following the contract termination settlement, partially offset by
increases in sales volumes. The devaluation of the Mexican peso against the U.S. dollar resulted in
a $61 million decrease in net sales and Hansens termination reduced net sales by $14 million.
SOP decreased $37 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, primarily due to the
$23 million associated with the devaluation of the Mexican peso combined with Hansens termination,
a shift to value products and an increase in costs associated with distribution route expansion,
partially offset by increased sales volume.

Critical Accounting Estimates
The process of preparing our unaudited condensed 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 companys 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. Actual amounts may differ from these estimates and
judgments. We have identified the following policies as critical accounting policies:
| revenue recognition; | ||
| customer marketing programs and incentives; | ||
| stock-based compensation; | ||
| pension and postretirement benefits; | ||
| risk management programs; | ||
| income taxes; | ||
| goodwill and other indefinite lived intangible assets; and | ||
| definite lived intangible assets. |
These critical accounting policies are discussed in greater detail in our Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Trends and Uncertainties Affecting Liquidity
We believe that the following transactions, trends and uncertainties may impact liquidity:
| changes in economic factors could impact consumers purchasing power, which could consequently impact our ability to fund our operating requirements with cash provided by operations; | ||
| changes in economic factors could have a negative impact on the ability of our customers to obtain financing and to timely pay their obligations to us, thus reducing our operating cash flow; | ||
| we have significant third party debt and pension obligations in connection with our separation from Cadbury and may make optional principal repayments from time-to-time; | ||
| we will continue to make marketplace and productivity office investments; | ||
| we will continue to make capital expenditures to build new manufacturing capacity, upgrade our existing plants and distribution fleet of trucks, replace and expand our cold drink equipment, make investments in IT systems, and from time-to-time invest in restructuring programs in order to improve operating efficiencies and lower costs; and | ||
| we may make further acquisitions. |

Senior Unsecured Credit Facility
Our senior unsecured credit agreement and revolving credit facility (collectively, the senior
unsecured credit facility) provides senior unsecured financing of up to $2.7 billion, consisting
of:
| A senior unsecured term loan A facility in an aggregate principal amount of $2.2 billion with a maturity in 2013. As of September 30, 2009, we had $1.325 billion outstanding under the term loan A facility. | ||
| A revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of $500 million with a maturity in 2013. The revolving credit facility was undrawn as of September 30, 2009, except to the extent utilized by letters of credit. Up to $75 million of the revolving credit facility is available for the issuance of letters of credit, of which $41 million was utilized as of September 30, 2009. We may use borrowings under the revolving credit facility for working capital and general corporate purposes. |
We are required to pay annual amortization in equal quarterly installments on the aggregate
principal amount of the term loan A equal to: (i) 10%, or $220 million, per year for installments
due in the first and second years following the initial date of funding, (ii) 15%, or $330 million,
per year for installments due in the third and fourth years following the initial date of funding,
and (iii) 50%, or $1.1 billion, for installments due in the fifth year following the initial date
of funding. The Company made optional principal repayments of $480 million for the nine months
ended September 30, 2009, covering all of its debt obligations (excluding capital leases) through
the first half of 2011. Since our separation from Cadbury, we have made combined scheduled and
optional repayments toward the principal totaling $875 million.
Borrowings under the senior unsecured credit facility bear interest at a floating rate per
annum based upon the London interbank offered rate for dollars (LIBOR) or the alternate base rate
(ABR), in each case plus an applicable margin which varies based upon our debt ratings, from
1.00% to 2.50%, in the case of LIBOR loans and 0.00% to 1.50% in the case of ABR loans. The
alternate base rate means the greater of (a) JPMorgan Chase Banks prime rate and (b) the federal
funds effective rate plus one half of 1%. Interest is payable on the last day of the
interest period, but not less than quarterly, in the case of any LIBOR loan and on the last day of
March, June, September and December of each year in the case of any ABR loan. The average interest
rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, was 4.9% and 4.8%, respectively.
We utilize interest rate swaps to effectively convert variable interest rates to fixed rates.
During the third quarter of 2008, the Company entered into interest rate swaps effective September
30, 2008, with notional amounts of $500 million and $1.2 billion, respectively. The interest rate
swap with the notional amount of $500 million matured in March 2009. During the nine months ended
September 30, 2009, DPS maintained the other interest rate swap with a notional amount of $1.2
billion and maturity date of December 31, 2009. In February 2009, the Company entered into an
interest rate swap effective December 31, 2009, with a duration of 12 months and a $750 million
notional amount that amortizes at the rate of $100 million every quarter.
All obligations under the senior unsecured credit facility are guaranteed by substantially all
of our existing and future direct and indirect domestic subsidiaries.
The senior unsecured credit facility requires us to comply with a maximum total leverage ratio
covenant and a minimum interest coverage ratio covenant, as defined in the credit agreement. The
senior unsecured credit facility also contains certain usual and customary representations and
warranties, affirmative and negative covenants and events of default. As of September 30, 2009, we
were in compliance with all covenant requirements.
Senior Unsecured Notes
As of September 30, 2009, we had senior unsecured notes outstanding totaling $1.7 billion,
consisting of $250 million aggregate principal amount of 6.12% senior notes due 2013, $1.2 billion
aggregate principal amount of 6.82% senior notes due 2018, and $250 million aggregate principal
amount of 7.45% senior notes due 2038. The weighted average interest cost of the senior notes is
6.8%. Interest on the senior unsecured notes is payable semi-annually on May 1 and November 1 and
is subject to increase if either of two rating agencies downgrades the debt rating associated with
the notes.
45
Table of Contents
The indenture governing the notes, among other things, limits our ability to incur
indebtedness secured by principal properties, to incur certain sale and lease back transactions and
to enter into certain mergers or transfers of substantially all of our assets. The notes are
guaranteed by substantially all of our existing and future direct and indirect domestic
subsidiaries.
Debt Ratings
As of September 30, 2009, our debt ratings were Baa3 with a stable outlook from Moodys
Investor Service and BBB- with a positive outlook from Standard & Poors. During the third quarter
of 2009, Standard & Poors affirmed our debt rating of BBB- and revised its outlook to positive
from negative. These debt ratings impact the interest we pay on our financing arrangement. A
downgrade of one or both of our debt 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 with additional amounts available
under our revolving credit facility.
Capital Expenditures
Cash paid
for capital expenditures was $223 million for the nine months ended September 30,
2009. Additions primarily related to the development of our new manufacturing and distribution center in
Victorville, California, expansion and replacement of existing cold drink equipment, and IT
investments for new systems. We continue to expect to incur discretionary annual capital
expenditures in an amount equal to approximately 5% of our net sales which we expect to fund
through cash provided by operating activities.
Acquisitions
We may make future acquisitions. For example, we may make acquisitions of regional bottling
companies, distributors, and distribution rights to further extend our geographic coverage. Any
acquisitions may require future capital expenditures and restructuring expenses.
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. Excess cash provided
by operating activities may be used to further reduce our debt obligations and fund capital
expenditures. The Company made optional principal repayments of $480 million for the nine months
ended September 30, 2009, covering all of its debt obligations (excluding capital leases) through
the first half of 2011. To the extent that our operating cash flows are not sufficient to meet our
liquidity needs, we may utilize amounts available under our revolving credit facility.
The following table summarizes our cash activity for the nine months ended September 30, 2009
and 2008 (in millions):

Table of Contents
Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities
Net cash provided by operating activities increased $178 million for the nine months
ended September 30, 2009, compared with the year ago period. The $132 million increase in net
income included $62 million related to one-time pre-tax gains from the termination of the Hansen
distribution agreements and the sale of Crush distribution rights during the nine months ended
September 30, 2009, and the write-off of $21 million of deferred financing costs related to our
bridge loan facility during the nine months ended September 30, 2008. Working capital favorability
was primarily driven by an increase in trade accounts payable partially offset by increases in
trade accounts receivable, inventories, and other non-current assets and liabilities. Other
non-current assets increased during the nine months ended September 30, 2009, primarily due to an
increase in customer incentive programs and tax indemnity receivables due from Cadbury. Cash
provided by operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2008, was unfavorably impacted as a
result of our separation from Cadbury.
Net Cash Used in Investing Activities
Cash used in investing activities decreased by approximately $1.33 billion for the nine
months ended September 30, 2009, compared with the year ago period. During the nine months ended
September 30, 2008, cash provided by investing activities included approximately $1.4 billion net
proceeds from the repayment of related party notes receivable due to the separation from Cadbury.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2009, cash used in investing activities included $68
million received upon the termination of the Hansen distribution agreements and the sale of certain
distribution rights for the Crush brand. Capital expenditures were consistent for the nine months
ended September 30, 2009, compared with the year ago period.
Net Cash Used in Financing Activities
The decrease of approximately $1.05 billion in cash used in financing activities for the
nine months ended September 30, 2009, compared with the year ago period was driven by our
separation from Cadbury. The following table summarizes the issuances and payments of third party
and related party debt for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 (in millions):

Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents were $282 million as of September 30, 2009, an increase of
$68 million from $214 million as of December 31, 2008. Cash and cash equivalent balances increased
due to an increase in foreign cash balances and strong cash collection at quarter end.
47
Table of Contents
Our cash balances are used to fund working capital requirements, debt and interest payments,
capital expenditures and income tax obligations. Excess cash balances may be used to reduce our
debt obligations and fund capital expenditures. Subsequent to September 30, 2009, cash available in
our foreign operations may be made available for these purposes. Foreign cash balances constitute
approximately 41% of our total cash position as of September 30, 2009.
Contractual Commitments and Obligations
We enter into various contractual obligations that impact, or could impact, our liquidity. The

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.
Foreign Exchange Risk
The majority of our net sales, expenses, and capital purchases are transacted in United States
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 September 30, 2009, the
impact to net income of a 10% change (up or down) in exchange rates is estimated to be an increase
or decrease of approximately $15 million on an annual basis.
We use derivative instruments such as foreign exchange forward contracts to manage our
exposure to changes in foreign exchange rates. For the period ending September 30, 2009, we had
contracts outstanding with a notional value of $29 million maturing at various dates through April
2010.
Interest Rate Risk
We centrally manage our debt portfolio and monitor our mix of fixed-rate and variable rate
debt.
We are subject to floating interest rate risk with respect to our long-term debt under the
senior unsecured credit facility. The principal interest rate exposure relates to amounts borrowed
under our term loan A facility. A change in the estimated interest rate on the outstanding
$1.325 billion of borrowings under the term loan A facility up or down by 1% will increase or
decrease our earnings before provision for income taxes by approximately $13 million on an annual
basis. We will also have interest rate exposure for any amounts we may borrow in the future under
the revolving credit facility.
We utilize interest rate swaps to effectively convert variable interest rates to fixed rates
to manage our exposure to changes in interest rates. Effective September 2008, the Company entered
into interest rate swaps maturing in December 2009 with an aggregate notional amount of $1.2
billion and converts variable interest rates to fixed rates of 5.27125%, including the applicable
margin. In February 2009, the Company entered into an interest rate swap effective December 31,
2009, with a duration of 12 months and a $750 million notional amount that amortizes at the rate of
$100 million per quarter and converts variable interest rates to fixed rates of 3.73%, including
the applicable margin.
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 aluminum, corn (for high
fructose corn syrup), natural gas (for use in processing and packaging), PET and fuel.
We utilize commodities forward 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 September 30, 2009, was a net asset of $3 million.
As of September 30, 2009, the impact to net income of a 10% change (up or down) in market
prices of these commodities is estimated to be an increase or decrease of approximately $4 million
on an annual basis.

Item 4T. Controls and Procedures.
Based on evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined
in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act) our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and
Chief Financial Officer, has concluded that, as of September 30, 2009, 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 Commissions 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 is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and
principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow
timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Prior to separation, we relied on certain financial information, administrative and other
resources of Cadbury to operate our business, including portions of corporate communications,
regulatory, human resources and benefit management, treasury, investor relations, corporate
controller, internal audit, Sarbanes Oxley compliance, information technology, corporate and legal
compliance, and community affairs. In conjunction with our separation from Cadbury, we are
enhancing our own financial, administrative, and other support systems. We are also refining our
own accounting and auditing policies and systems on a stand-alone basis.
Other than those noted above, 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.
