PepsiCo, Inc.

Analyst Ratings Synthesis

The consensus is Hold across 20 analysts. Targets range from $138 to $165, a $27 spread; the $139 mean sits close to the low end, while the supplied consensus does not identify the analysts behind either endpoint. The evidence does not establish the direction of revisions specifically during the past week. It does show two target cuts of unspecified date: Morgan Stanley lowered its target to $145 from $160 while keeping Equal Weight, and Deutsche Bank’s Steve Powers cut his to $132 from $138 while keeping Hold. The spread reflects differing views on whether PepsiCo’s valuation and North America reset can offset consumer, cost and earnings pressures.
