PepsiCo10-Q: Divestiture

PepsiCo warns a credit rating downgrade could increase borrowing costs and impair capital access.

What happened

The company explicitly identifies the risk that a credit rating downgrade would negatively impact its ability to access capital markets and increase financing costs. This creates a pain point for the CFO and Treasury departments, increasing their receptiveness to financial software, risk management, and treasury solutions that enhance financial controls and reporting accuracy.

Filing excerpt

Any downgrade of our credit ratings by a credit rating agency, especially any downgrade to below investment grade, whether or not as a result of our actions or factors which are beyond our control, could increase our future borrowing costs and impair our ability to access capital and credit markets on terms commercially acceptable to us, or at all.
