VARIABLE-RATE BORROWING ARRANGEMENTS

Term Loan Agreement

On January 31, 2025, we repaid the first tranche of the Term Loan Agreement using proceeds from commercial paper. As of March 31, 2025, the second tranche of up to $250 million remains available and undrawn.

Revolving Credit Agreement

On March 31, 2025, we entered into the 2025 Revolving Credit Agreement among KDP, as borrower, the lenders and issuing banks party thereto, and JPMorgan Chase, Bank, N.A., as administrative agent. We incurred approximately $4 million in deferred financing fees related to the issuance.

The following table summarizes information about the 2025 Revolving Credit Agreement:

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED, CONTINUED)

Borrowings under the 2025 Revolving Credit Agreement will bear interest at a rate per annum equal to, at our option, the term SOFR rate plus a margin of 0.750% to 1.250% or the alternative base rate plus a margin of zero to 0.250%, in each case, depending on the rating of certain of our index debt. The 2025 Revolving Credit Agreement contains customary representations and warranties for investment grade financings. The 2025 Revolving Credit Agreement also contains (i) certain customary affirmative covenants, including those that impose certain reporting and/or performance obligations on us and our subsidiaries, (ii) certain customary negative covenants that generally limit, subject to various exceptions, us and our subsidiaries from taking certain actions, including, without limitation, incurring liens and consummating certain fundamental changes, (iii) a financial covenant in the form of a minimum interest coverage ratio of 3.25 to 1.00, and (iv) customary events of default (including a change of control) for financings of this type.

As of March 31, 2025, we were in compliance with our minimum interest coverage ratio with respect to the 2025 Revolving Credit Agreement.

Letter of Credit Facility

In addition to the portion of the 2025 Revolving Credit Agreement reserved for issuance of letters of credit, we have an incremental letter of credit facility. Under this facility, $150 million is available for the issuance of letters of credit, $72 million of which was utilized as of March 31, 2025 and $78 million of which remains available for use.

FAIR VALUE DISCLOSURES

The fair value of our commercial paper approximates the carrying value and is considered Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy.

The fair values of our Notes are based on current market rates available to us and are considered Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy. 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 the Notes and related unamortized costs to be incurred at such date. The fair value of our Notes was $12,151 million and $12,036 million as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.

3. Acquisitions

GHOST TRANSACTIONS

On October 23, 2024, we entered into a definitive agreement with GHOST, and certain other parties named therein, to acquire a controlling interest in GHOST. Under the terms of the agreement, we initially purchased a 60% stake in GHOST for aggregate consideration of $999 million, which included customary adjustments, and closed on December 31, 2024. We also entered into an agreement which requires us to purchase the remaining equity interests in GHOST in 2028.

As of March 31, 2025, we have finalized our allocation of consideration to the net tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the GHOST Transactions based on estimated fair values as of December 31, 2024. There were no significant measurement period adjustments recorded during the first quarter of 2025.

5. Derivatives

We are exposed to market risks arising from adverse changes in interest rates, FX rates, and commodity prices. We manage these risks through a variety of strategies, including the use of interest rate contracts, FX forward contracts, commodity forward, future, swap, and option contracts, and supplier pricing agreements. We do not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.

All derivative instruments are recorded on a gross basis, including those subject to master netting arrangements.

KEURIG DR PEPPER INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED, CONTINUED)

We formally designate and account for certain interest rate contracts and foreign exchange forward contracts that meet established accounting criteria under U.S. GAAP as cash flow hedges. For such contracts, the effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative instruments is recorded, net of applicable taxes, in AOCI. When net income is affected by the variability of the underlying transaction, the applicable offsetting amount of the gain or loss from the derivative instrument deferred in AOCI is reclassified to net income. Cash flows from derivative instruments designated in a qualifying hedging relationship are classified in the same category as the cash flows from the hedged items. If a cash flow hedge were to cease to qualify for hedge accounting, or were terminated, the derivatives would continue to be carried on the balance sheet at fair value until settled, and hedge accounting would be discontinued prospectively. If the underlying hedged transaction ceases to exist, any associated amounts reported in AOCI would be reclassified to earnings at that time.

For derivatives that are not designated or for which the designated hedging relationship is discontinued, the gain or loss on the instrument is recognized in earnings in the period of change.

We have exposure to credit losses from derivative instruments in an asset position in the event of nonperformance by the counterparties to the agreements. Historically, we have not experienced material credit losses as a result of counterparty nonperformance. We select and periodically review counterparties based on credit ratings, limit our exposure to a single counterparty under defined guidelines, and monitor the market position of the programs upon execution of a hedging transaction and at least on a quarterly basis.

INTEREST RATES

Economic Hedges

We are exposed to interest rate risk related to our borrowing arrangements and obligations. We enter into interest rate contracts to provide predictability in our overall cost structure and to manage the balance of fixed-rate and variable-rate debt. We primarily enter into receive-fixed, pay-variable and receive-variable, pay-fixed swaps, and swaption contracts. A natural hedging relationship exists in which changes in the fair value of the instruments act as an economic offset to changes in the fair value of the underlying items. Changes in the fair value of these instruments are recorded in earnings throughout the term of the derivative instrument and are generally reported in Interest expense, net in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. As of March 31, 2025, economic interest rate derivative instruments have maturities ranging from April 2025 to November 2046.

Cash Flow Hedges

From time to time, we designate certain interest rate contracts as cash flow hedges in order to manage the exposures resulting from changes in interest rates as described above. We had no such contracts outstanding as of March 31, 2025.

FOREIGN EXCHANGE

We are exposed to foreign exchange risk in our foreign subsidiaries and with certain counterparties in foreign jurisdictions, which may transact in currencies that are different from the functional currencies of our legal entities. Additionally, the balance sheets of these subsidiaries are subject to exposure from movements in exchange rates.

Economic Hedges

We hold FX forward contracts to economically manage the balance sheet exposures resulting from changes in the FX rates described above. The intent of these FX contracts is to minimize the impact of FX risk associated with balance sheet positions not in local currency. In these cases, a hedging relationship exists in which changes in the fair value of the instruments act as an economic offset to changes in the fair value of the underlying items. Changes in the fair value of these instruments are recorded in earnings throughout the term of the derivative instrument and are reported in the same caption of the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income as the associated risk. As of March 31, 2025, these FX contracts have maturities ranging from April 2025 to September 2026.

KEURIG DR PEPPER INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED, CONTINUED)

Cash Flow Hedges

We designate certain FX forward contracts as cash flow hedges in order to manage the exposures resulting from changes in the FX rates described above. These designated FX forward contracts relate to forecasted inventory purchases in U.S. dollars of our foreign subsidiaries. The intent of these FX contracts is to provide predictability in our overall cost structure. As of March 31, 2025, these FX contracts have maturities ranging from April 2025 to March 2026.

COMMODITIES

Economic Hedges

We centrally manage the exposure to volatility in the prices of certain commodities used in our production process and transportation through various derivative contracts. We generally hold some combination of future, swap, and option contracts that economically hedge certain of our risks. In these cases, a hedging relationship exists in which changes in the fair value of the instruments act as an economic offset to changes in the fair value of the underlying items or as an offset to certain costs of production. Changes in the fair value of these instruments are recorded in earnings throughout the term of the derivative instrument and are reported in the same line item of the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income as the hedged transaction. Unrealized gains and losses are recognized as a component of unallocated corporate costs until our reportable segments are affected by the completion of the underlying transaction, at which time the gain or loss is reflected as a component of the respective segment's income from operations. As of March 31, 2025, these commodity contracts have maturities ranging from April 2025 to January 2027.

NOTIONAL AMOUNTS OF DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS

The following table presents the notional amounts of our outstanding derivative instruments by type:

(in millions)March 31, 2025December 31, 2024
Interest rate contracts
Forward starting swaps, not designated as hedging instruments$1,950$1,700

FX contracts
Forward contracts, not designated as hedging instruments511490
Forward contracts, designated as cash flow hedges408486
Commodity contracts, not designated as hedging instruments(1)503515

(1)Notional value for commodity contracts is calculated as the expected volume times strike price per unit on a gross basis.

FAIR VALUE OF DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS

The fair values of commodity contracts, interest rate contracts, and FX forward contracts are determined based on inputs that are readily available in public markets or can be derived from information available in publicly quoted markets. The fair value of commodity contracts are valued using the market approach based on observable market transactions, primarily underlying commodities futures or physical index prices, at the reporting date. Interest rate contracts are valued using models based primarily on readily observable market parameters, such as SOFR forward rates, for all substantial terms of our contracts and credit risk of the counterparties. FX forward contracts are valued using quoted forward FX prices at the reporting date. Therefore, we have categorized these contracts as Level 2.

PERFORMANCE SHARE UNITS

In March 2025, the Remuneration & Nomination Committee of the Board approved PSU grants. Each PSU represents the right to receive one share of our common stock. The PSUs vest 3 years from the grant date, to the extent that the performance metrics are achieved during a predetermined performance period. The performance metrics include net sales growth and adjusted diluted EPS growth, as defined in the respective grant agreement, and are measured on a constant currency basis. The payout percentage for all PSUs granted ranges from 0% to 200%. Beginning in 2025, the fair value of PSUs is determined based on the number of units granted and the grant date price of common stock.

15. Commitments and Contingencies

We are occasionally subject to litigation or other legal proceedings. Reserves are recorded for specific legal proceedings when we determine that the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome is probable and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. We had litigation reserves of $2 million as of both March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024. We have also identified certain other legal matters where we believe an unfavorable outcome is reasonably possible and/or for which no estimate of possible losses can be made. We do not believe that the outcome of these, or any other, pending legal matters, individually or collectively, will have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition, or liquidity.

ANTITRUST LITIGATION

In February 2014, TreeHouse Foods, Inc. and certain affiliated entities filed suit against KDP’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Keurig (formerly known as Green Mountain Coffee Roasters, Inc.), in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York (“SDNY”) (TreeHouse Foods, Inc. et al. v. Green Mountain Coffee Roasters, Inc. et al.). The TreeHouse complaint asserted claims under the federal antitrust laws and various state laws, contending that Keurig had monopolized alleged markets for single serve coffee brewers and single serve coffee pods. The TreeHouse complaint sought treble monetary damages, declaratory relief, injunctive relief and attorneys’ fees. In the months that followed, a number of additional actions, including claims from another coffee manufacturer (JBR, Inc.), as well as putative class actions on behalf of direct and indirect purchasers of Keurig’s products, were filed in various federal district courts, asserting claims and seeking relief substantially similar to the claims asserted and relief sought in the TreeHouse complaint. Additional similar actions were filed by individual direct purchasers (including McLane Company, Inc., BJ’s Wholesale Club, Inc., Winn-Dixie Stores Inc., and Bi-Lo Holding LLC) in 2019 and in 2021. All of these actions were transferred to the SDNY for coordinated pre-trial proceedings (In re: Keurig Green Mountain Single-Serve Coffee Antitrust Litigation) (the “Multidistrict Antitrust Litigation”).

In July 2020, Keurig reached an agreement with one of the plaintiff groups in the Multidistrict Antitrust Litigation, the putative indirect purchaser class, to settle the claims asserted for $31 million. The settlement class consisted of individuals and entities in the United States that purchased, from persons other than Keurig and not for purposes of resale, Keurig manufactured or licensed single serve beverage portion packs during the applicable class period (beginning in September 2010 for most states). The settlement was approved and paid, and the indirect purchasers’ claims have been dismissed.

Discovery in all remaining matters pending in the Multidistrict Antitrust Litigation is concluded, with the plaintiffs collectively claiming more than $5 billion of monetary damages. Keurig strongly disputes the merits of the claims and the calculation of damages. In 2021, the parties filed motions challenging the validity of certain of the other parties’ proposed expert opinions. In January 2025, the court issued a ruling on these motions, granting challenges to certain expert testimony - including Keurig’s challenge to JBR, Inc.’s damages expert - but largely denying the parties’ motions. Keurig has also fully briefed summary judgment motions that, if successful, would end the cases entirely. Keurig is also pursuing its opposition to direct purchaser plaintiffs’ motion for class certification.

Keurig intends to continue vigorously defending the remaining lawsuits. At this time, we are unable to predict the outcome of these lawsuits, the potential loss or range of loss, if any, associated with the resolution of these lawsuits or any potential effect they may have on us or our results of operations. Accordingly, we have not accrued for a loss contingency. Additionally, as the timelines in these cases may be beyond our control, we can provide no assurance as to whether or when there will be material developments in these matters.

16. Restructuring

RESTRUCTURING PROGRAMS

2024 Network Optimization

In March 2024, we announced a restructuring program designed to more effectively and efficiently meet the needs of consumers and customers. The program initially included the closure of our manufacturing facility in Williston, Vermont, with operations and employees relocating to other existing manufacturing locations. The relocation began during the second quarter of 2024 and was completed in the third quarter of 2024. In July 2024, we also announced the closure of our Windsor, Virginia manufacturing facility, which is expected to be completed in the second quarter of 2025. Our restructuring program also encompasses other costs intended to optimize our manufacturing and distribution footprint throughout our operations.

The restructuring program is expected to incur pre-tax restructuring charges in an estimated range of $125 million to $145 million, primarily comprised of asset related costs, through the second half of 2025.

2023 CEO Succession and Associated Realignment

In 2023, we began to enact several organization movements to ensure succession plans, to reinforce enterprise capabilities to support growth, and to control costs. A key component of the program was the appointment of Tim Cofer as Chief Operating Officer, effective November 6, 2023, with Mr. Cofer succeeding Robert Gamgort as our CEO during the second quarter of 2024. We also realigned our executive and operating leadership structure to enable faster decision making and to better support various strategic initiatives. The program is expected to incur charges of approximately $85 million, primarily driven by severance costs, which were substantially completed as of December 31, 2024, and the sign-on bonus for Mr. Cofer.

RESTRUCTURING CHARGES

In February 2025, JAB BevCo B.V., a subsidiary of JAB, sold approximately 87 million shares of our common stock through an underwritten secondary offering. Upon completion of the offering on February 28, 2025, JAB beneficially owned less than 10% of our outstanding common stock, and the three members of our Board affiliated with JAB resigned. Prior to these transactions, JAB and its affiliates were included in our disclosures of related party transactions. Effective February 28, 2025, these disclosures are no longer applicable to JAB and its affiliates.
