Key developments for Pepsico, Inc. (PEP)
The Board of Directors of Pepsico Inc. declared a quarterly dividend of $0.45 per share on company's common stock. The dividend is payable January 4, 2010, to shareholders of record on December 4, 2009. This quarterly dividend is a 6% increase versus the comparable year-earlier period.
Pepsico, Inc. will commence production of Frito Lay chips at its plant in Azov (Rostov region) the end of November. The construction readiness of the plant is in place and a test launch has been made. The company said that however, there are several internal issues regarding the insurance company that covers PepsiCo's assets. Therefore, a decision has been made to rectify all bugs and deficiencies by the end of the month while the seasonal and climatic possibilities are there.
A judge has tossed out a decision for now at least that could have cost Pepsico, Inc. $1.26 billion after the company didn't respond to a lawsuit claiming it stole the idea for bottled water. The decision on November 6, 2009 by a Wisconsin court means PepsiCo will get its say in court now that it has found out about the case. Two men claim PepsiCo violated trade secrets and stole their idea to sell bottled water. They sued the company and two Wisconsin distributors in April but PepsiCo didn't respond for several reasons, including the fact that a secretary who received letters relating to the case failed to act on them. Last month, a judge sided with the men and gave them a default $1.26 billion judgment, granting them the award without a trial. When PepsiCo finally learned of the case, after the judgment, the company asked the court to toss out the ruling or at least give it a chance to fight the accusations.

Coca-Cola aims to double system revenue by 2020
By Martinne Geller ATLANTA (Reuters) - Coca-Cola Co (NYSE:KO - News) unveiled goals on Monday that call for the revenue generated by the company and its bottlers to double to roughly $200 billion by 2020, with profit margins increasing.Coke also said it hopes to more than double the number of soft drink servings it sells to more than 3 billion per day by the end of 2020.The world's largest soft drink maker discussed its targets for the next 10 years at a two-day investor meeting in Atlanta, its first such gathering in its hometown in more than a decade.Chief Executive Muhtar Kent said the annual revenue growth rate implied by the 2020 goal is a little higher than the top end of Coke's standard long-term growth target, but he sought to assure investors and analysts that it is "definitely achievable.""It's going to take a lot of work. It's going to take some fantastic marketing and a lot of synergies to be powered back into marketing," Kent said. "But we believe our system has the capacity to achieve that trajectory."Kent said there were several worldwide trends that supported the accelerated growth in the medium- to long-term -- rising economic power of developing countries, increasing urbanization and a growing middle class.For example, Chinese consumers drink an average of 8 servings of Coca-Cola per year, compared with 214 in the United States and 387 in Mexico.In addition to its trademark cola brand, Coca-Cola has 12 other brands that currently generate over $1 billion in retail sales, includi...Click here to read the whole Article (external link)
