NEW YORK: PepsiCo Inc reported higher quarterly earnings on Thursday, helped by its acquisition of a Russian beverage company, but tempered its full-year outlook.
The maker of Pepsi-Cola, Frito-Lay snacks and Quaker oatmeal said net income was $1.89 billion, or $1.17 per share, in the second quarter that ended on June 11, compared with $1.60 billion, or 98 cents per share, a year earlier.
Net revenue jumped about 14 percent to $16.83 billion.
The company said it now expects 2011 earnings to grow at a high single-digit rate, from the $4.13 per share it earned in 2010. The new forecast includes a 2 percentage point boost from foreign exchange rates. Its prior target, for growth of 7 percent to 8 percent, did not include that boost. ' Reuters
