PepsiCo lowers 2026 earnings outlook but UBS sees undervalued stock amid improving sales.

PepsiCo reported stronger-than-expected organic sales growth and better margins but lowered its 2026 earnings guidance due to slower North America recovery and higher input costs. UBS notes Pepsi trades at a steep discount to peers, which is hard to justify given improving sales and strong international business. The company now expects 1-2% core EPS growth and 3% organic sales growth for 2026, with a better-than-expected Q4 sales outlook. UBS believes the stock could gain if North America consumption trends improve and earnings confidence rises, though clearer signs of recovery are needed for a significant re-rating.

PepsiCo shares are trading at USD 126.02 on Pluang as of Oct 10, 2026 02:21 WIB, down 2.22% for the day. The stock is near its 52-week low of USD 123.64 and has a dividend yield of 4.61%. Despite UBS noting a steep discount to peers, Pluang order activity shows a strong sell sentiment at 80%, reflecting cautious investor behavior around the company’s outlook and earnings guidance.
