PepsiCo is a good investment because it is a well managed company with strong sales in a large market that is both diverse and world wide. PepsiCo continues to innovate and penetrate new markets (for example the flavored water market), and is not losing market share to competitors. PepsiCo is a safe investment because there will always be a demand for Pepsi's products, even during recessions, and therefore the stock will be resistant to cyclical changes in the market and economy. The dividend does not provide huge amounts of income, but it is a nice cushion.
PepsiCo's income statement shows that 2006 Net Income was significantly higher than both 2004 and 2005 (35% and 38%).

The increase in retained earnings came principally from greater net income, not from a decrease in dividends. There was an increase of 13% in cash dividends paid in 2006 over 2005. This illustrates Pepsi is reinvesting its earnings, and generating more revenue with less debt and fewer assets.
PepsiCo's international growth has been twice as great as North American growth. Pepsi's focus on the international market,...
