Category growth slowed down in Beverages from 6.0% in Q1 to 4.4% in Q2. Foods (Salty

Snacks + Quaker categories) also slowed down from 2.6% to 1.6%.

Coca-Cola’s growth moderated from 6.3% in Q1 to 4.3%. The slowdown was primarily

driven by Soft Drinks, which slowed down from 8.3% to 6.5%, but still grew ~2x vs.

category growth (3.6%). Sports Drinks also slowed down from 8.4% to 7.6% but still grew

7.9%, presumably as new capacity came online. Liquid Tea and Water declined ~3%, losing

share to Milo’s Tea and Private Label, respectively, and dragging down the total average.

PepsiCo’s growth slowed down from 2.2% to 0.7%.

PepsiCo Beverages slowed down from 4.2% to 2.5%, driven by Energy Drinks, which
