expectations or beliefs about future events and
financial performance. Forward-looking

"believe," "anticipate," "expect," "intend,"
"plan," "will," "may" and other similar
expressions. In addition, any statements that
refer to expectations, projections or other
characterizations of future events or

Forward-looking statements are subject to known

Pepsi has declined each year since 2000 (-18

enhanced beverages - Vitamin Water momentum was negatively impacted by
Propel attack ad - Sales of enhanced beverages have been growing
- The medicine cabinet is moving to the
refrigerator - Coke Zero has been a huge success because of
taste and Zero calories (450 million cases sold
since 2005, 192 oz case equivalent)
