NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)

1. General

References in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to “we”, “our”, “us”, “DPS” or “the Company” refer to Dr Pepper Snapple Group, Inc. and all entities included in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Cadbury plc and Cadbury Schweppes plc are hereafter collectively referred to as “Cadbury” unless otherwise indicated.

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q refers to some of DPS’ owned or licensed trademarks, trade names and service marks, which are referred to as the Company’s brands. All of the product names included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are either DPS’ registered trademarks or those of the Company’s licensors.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting principally of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and the accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from these estimates. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008.

For the periods prior to May 7, 2008, the condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a “carve-out” basis from Cadbury’s consolidated financial statements using historical results of operations, assets and liabilities attributable to Cadbury’s beverage business in the United States, Canada, Mexico and the Caribbean (“the Americas Beverages business”) and including allocations of expenses from Cadbury. The historical Americas Beverages business information is the Company’s predecessor financial information. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements may not be indicative of the Company’s future performance and may not reflect what its consolidated results of operations, financial position and cash flows would have been had the Company operated as an independent company during all of the periods presented. The Company eliminates from its financial results all intercompany transactions between entities included in the consolidation and the intercompany transactions with its equity method investees.

Prior to the May 7, 2008 separation, Cadbury provided certain corporate functions to the Company and costs associated with these functions were allocated to the Company. These functions included corporate communications, regulatory, human resources and benefit management, treasury, investor relations, corporate controller, internal audit, Sarbanes Oxley compliance, information technology, corporate and legal compliance, and community affairs. The costs of such services were allocated to the Company based on the most relevant allocation method to the service provided, primarily based on relative percentage of revenue or headcount. Management believes such allocations were reasonable; however, they may not be indicative of the actual expense that would have been incurred had the Company been operating as an independent company for all of the periods presented. The charges for these functions are included primarily in selling, general, and administrative expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The Company has evaluated subsequent events through August 13, 2009, the date of issuance of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Use of Estimates

The process of preparing DPS’ unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the use of estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses. These estimates and judgments are based on historical experience, future expectations and other factors and assumptions the Company believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. The most significant estimates and judgments are reviewed on an ongoing basis and revised when necessary. Actual amounts may differ from these estimates and judgments. The Company has identified the following policies as critical accounting policies:

	•		revenue recognition;

	•		customer marketing programs and incentives;

	•		stock-based compensation;

	•		pension and postretirement benefits;

	•		risk management programs;

	•		income taxes;

	•		goodwill and other indefinite lived intangibles; and

	•		definite lived intangible assets.

These accounting estimates and related policies are discussed in greater detail in DPS’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008.

Restatement of Net Sales and Cost of Sales related to Intercompany Eliminations

As detailed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008, subsequent to the issuance of the Company’s 2007 Combined Annual Financial Statements, the Company identified an error in the presentation of the previously reported net sales and cost of sales captions on the Statement of Operations. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, the Company’s Condensed Combined Statement of Operations included $12 million and $24 million, respectively, of intercompany transactions that should have been eliminated upon consolidation.

In order to correct the error, the net sales and cost of sales captions have been restated in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations from the amounts previously reported as follows (in millions):


	As Previously Reported				As Restated
	Net Sales		Cost of Sales		Net Sales		Cost of Sales
Three months ended June 30, 2008	$	1,557	$	706	$	1,545	$	694
Six months ended June 30, 2008		2,864		1,283		2,840		1,259

These adjustments to the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations do not affect the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, Condensed Consolidated Statements of Changes in Stockholders’ Equity, Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, gross profit, income from operations or net income.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 168, The “FASB Accounting Standards Codification” and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles — a replacement of FASB Statement No. 162 (“SFAS 168”). SFAS 168 establishes the FASB Accounting Standards Codification as the source of authoritative U.S. GAAP and recognizes the rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) as sources of authoritative U.S. GAAP for SEC registrants. SFAS 168 is effective for financial statements for interim and

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)

annual reporting periods ending after September 15, 2009, and will not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 167, Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R) (“SFAS 167”). The new standard addresses, among other things, the application of certain key provisions of Interpretation 46(R), including those in which the accounting and disclosures under the Interpretation do not always provide timely and useful information about an enterprise’s involvement in a variable interest entity. SFAS 167 is effective for the annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009, and for all interim periods subsequent to adoption. The Company will provide the required disclosures for all its filings for periods subsequent to the effective date.

In December 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (“FSP”) No.132(R)-1, Employers’ Disclosures about Pensions and Other Postretirement Benefits (“FSP 132R-1”). FSP 132R-1 requires enhanced disclosures about the plan assets of a company’s defined benefit pension and other postretirement plans intended to provide users of financial statements with a greater understanding of: (1) how investment allocation decisions are made, including the factors that are pertinent to an understanding of investment policies and strategies; (2) the major categories of plan assets; (3) the inputs and valuation techniques used to measure the fair value of plan assets; (4) the effect of fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) on changes in plan assets for the period; and (5) significant concentrations of risk within plan assets. FSP 132R-1 is effective for years ending after December 15, 2009. The Company will provide the required disclosures for all its filings for periods subsequent to the effective date.

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

In May 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 165, Subsequent Events (“SFAS 165”), which establishes general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. SFAS 165 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods ending after June 15, 2009 and is applied prospectively. The Company adopted the new disclosure requirements in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements effective June 30, 2009. Refer to section “Basis of Presentation” above for the related disclosure.

In April 2009, the FASB issued FSP No. SFAS 107-1 and APB No. 28-1, Disclosures about the Fair Value of Financial Instruments (“FSP FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1”). FSP FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1, requires disclosures about the fair value of financial instruments in interim financial statements as well as in annual financial statements, and is effective for interim periods ending after June 15, 2009. The Company adopted the provisions of FSP FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1 effective June 30, 2009. Refer to Note 13 for further information.

In April 2008, the FASB issued FSP No. 142-3, Determination of the Useful Life of Intangible Assets (“FSP 142-3”). FSP 142-3 amends the factors that should be considered in developing assumptions about renewal or extension used in estimating the useful life of a recognized intangible asset under SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets (“SFAS 142”). This standard is intended to improve the consistency between the useful life of a recognized intangible asset under SFAS 142 and the period of expected cash flows used to measure the fair value of the asset under SFAS No. 141 (revised 2007), Business Combinations (“SFAS 141(R)”) and other U.S. GAAP. FSP 142-3 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and the Company has adopted the provisions of FSP 142-3 effective January 1, 2009. The measurement provisions of this standard applied only to intangible assets acquired after the effective date and its adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009.

In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (“SFAS 161”). SFAS 161 changes the disclosure requirements for derivative instruments and hedging activities, requiring enhanced disclosures about how and why an entity uses derivative instruments, how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, as amended (“SFAS 133”), and how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity’s financial position, financial performance and cash flows. The Company adopted the provisions of SFAS 161 effective January 1, 2009. Refer to Note 12 for further information.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141(R), Business Combinations (“SFAS 141 (R)”). SFAS 141(R) changes how business acquisitions are accounted for and will impact financial statements both on the acquisition date and in subsequent periods. Some of the changes, such as the accounting for contingent consideration, will introduce more volatility into earnings. SFAS 141(R) applies to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008. SFAS 141(R) was effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2009, and the Company will apply SFAS 141(R) prospectively to all business combinations subsequent to the effective date.

(Unaudited)

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements — an amendment of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51 (“SFAS 160”). SFAS 160 establishes accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and the deconsolidation of a subsidiary and also establishes disclosure requirements that clearly identify and distinguish between the controlling and noncontrolling interests and requires the separate disclosure of income attributable to the controlling and noncontrolling interests. SFAS 160 was effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. The Company adopted the provisions of SFAS 160 on a prospective basis as of January 1, 2009. The adoption of SFAS 160 did not have a material impact on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009.

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (“SFAS 157”), which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure requirements about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 is effective for the Company January 1, 2008. However, in February 2008, the FASB released FASB Staff Position FAS 157-2, Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157 (“FSP FAS 157-2”), which delayed the effective date of SFAS 157 for all non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities, except those that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis (at least annually) to January 1, 2009. The Company adopted the deferred provisions of SFAS 157 on January 1, 2009. The adoption of the deferred provisions of SFAS 157 for the Company’s non-financial assets and liabilities did not have a material impact on its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

(1)		Intangible brands with indefinite lives increased between December 31, 2008, and June 30, 2009, due to changes in foreign currency.

(2)		During the six months ended June 30, 2009, the Company sold indefinite lived bottler agreements and acquired indefinite lived distribution rights. In connection with certain transactions, the Company recorded a gain of $11 million during the six months ended June 30, 2009, as a component of other operating income in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.

(3)		Hansen Natural Corporation terminated its agreements with the Company to distribute Monster Energy as well as other Hansen’s branded beverages in certain markets in the United States and Mexico. During the six months ended June 30, 2009, the Company recorded a one-time gain of $51 million associated with the termination of the Hansen distribution agreements (receipt of termination payments of $53 million less the write-off of bottler agreements of $2 million) as a component of other operating income in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.

As of June 30, 2009, the weighted average useful lives of intangible assets with finite lives were 10 years, 8 years and 8 years for brands, customer relationships and bottler agreements, respectively. Amortization expense for intangible assets was $4 million and $7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, and $8 million and $14 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

Amortization expense of these intangible assets over the remainder of 2009 and the next four years is expected to be the following (in millions):

The Company conducts impairment tests on goodwill and all indefinite lived intangible assets annually, as of December 31, or more frequently if circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The Company uses present value and other valuation techniques to make this assessment. If the carrying amount of goodwill exceeds its implied fair value or the carrying amount of an intangible asset exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to that excess. DPS did not identify any circumstances that indicated that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable during the six months ended June 30, 2009.

The following is a description of the Company’s senior unsecured credit agreement and revolving credit facility (collectively, the “senior unsecured credit facility”) and the senior unsecured notes. The summaries of the senior unsecured credit facility and the senior unsecured notes are qualified in their entirety by the specific terms and provisions of the senior unsecured credit agreement and the indenture governing the senior unsecured notes, respectively, copies of which have previously been filed, as referenced in the exhibits to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008.

Senior Unsecured Credit Facility

The Company’s senior unsecured credit agreement provides senior unsecured financing of up to $2.7 billion, consisting of:

	•		A senior unsecured term loan A facility in an aggregate principal amount of $2.2 billion with a maturity in 2013. During the second quarter of 2008, DPS borrowed $2.2 billion under the term loan A facility.

	•		A revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of $500 million with a maturity in 2013. The revolving credit facility was undrawn as of June 30, 2009, and December 31, 2008, except to the extent utilized by letters of credit. Up to $75 million of the revolving credit facility is available for the issuance of letters of credit, of which $43 million and $38 million was utilized as of June 30, 2009, and December 31, 2008, respectively.

Borrowings under the senior unsecured credit facility bear interest at a floating rate per annum based upon the London interbank offered rate for dollars (“LIBOR”) or the alternate base rate (“ABR”), in each case plus an applicable margin which varies based upon the Company’s debt ratings, from 1.00% to 2.50%, in the case of LIBOR loans and 0.00% to 1.50% in the case of ABR loans. The alternate base rate means the greater of (a) JPMorgan Chase Bank’s prime rate and (b) the federal funds effective rate plus one half of 1%. Interest is payable on the last day of the interest period, but not less than quarterly, in the case of any LIBOR loan and on the last day of March, June, September and December of each year in the case of any ABR loan. The average interest rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, was 4.5% and 4.8%, respectively. Interest expense was $22 million and $27 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, and $48 million and $27 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

Amortization of deferred financing costs of $3 million and $3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, and $7 million and $3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively, was included in interest expense.

The Company utilizes interest rate swaps to effectively convert variable interest rates to fixed rates. See Note 12 for further information regarding derivatives.

An unused commitment fee is payable quarterly to the lenders on the unused portion of the commitments in respect of the revolving credit facility equal to 0.15% to 0.50% per annum, depending upon the Company’s debt ratings. The Company incurred less than $1 million in unused commitment fees for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, and $1 million and less than $1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively. Additionally, interest expense included $1 million of amortization of deferred financing costs associated with the revolving credit facility for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, and $1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

The Company is required to pay annual amortization in equal quarterly installments on the aggregate principal amount of the term loan A equal to: (i) 10%, or $220 million, per year for installments due in the first and second years following the initial date of funding, (ii) 15%, or $330 million, per year for installments due in the third and fourth years following the initial date of funding, and (iii) 50%, or $1.1 billion, for installments due in the fifth year following the initial date of funding. Principal amounts outstanding under the revolving credit facility are due and payable in full at maturity. During the six months ended June 30, 2009, the Company made optional principal repayments totaling $280 million, prepaying its principal obligations through September 2010. Since the Company’s separation from Cadbury, DPS has made combined scheduled and optional repayments toward the principal totaling $675 million.

All obligations under the senior unsecured credit facility are guaranteed by substantially all of the Company’s existing and future direct and indirect domestic subsidiaries.

The senior unsecured credit facility contains customary negative covenants that, among other things, restrict the Company’s ability to incur debt at subsidiaries that are not guarantors; incur liens; merge or sell, transfer, lease or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all assets; make investments, loans, advances, guarantees and acquisitions; enter into transactions with affiliates; and enter into agreements restricting its ability to incur liens or the ability of subsidiaries to make distributions. These covenants are subject to certain exceptions described in the senior credit agreement. In addition, the senior unsecured credit facility requires the Company to comply with a maximum total leverage ratio covenant and a minimum interest coverage ratio covenant, as defined in the senior credit agreement. The senior unsecured credit facility also contains certain usual and customary representations and warranties, affirmative covenants and events of default. As of June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, the Company was in compliance with all covenant requirements.

Senior Unsecured Notes

The Company had $1.7 billion aggregate principal amount of senior unsecured notes outstanding as of June 30, 2009, consisting of $250 million aggregate principal amount of 6.12% senior notes due 2013, $1.2 billion aggregate principal amount of 6.82% senior notes due 2018, and $250 million aggregate principal amount of 7.45% senior notes due 2038. The weighted average interest cost of the senior notes is 6.8%. Interest on the senior unsecured notes is payable semi-annually on May 1 and November 1 and is subject to increase if either of two rating agencies downgrades the debt rating associated with the notes. Interest expense was $29 million and $20 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, and $58 million and $20 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively. Amortization of deferred financing costs of less than $1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, and $1 million and less than $1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively, was included in interest expense.

The indenture governing the notes, among other things, limits the Company’s ability to incur indebtedness secured by principal properties, to enter into certain sale and lease back transactions and to enter into certain mergers or transfers of substantially all of DPS’ assets. The notes are guaranteed by substantially all of the Company’s existing and future direct and indirect domestic subsidiaries.

Bridge Loan Facility

On April 11, 2008, DPS borrowed $1.7 billion under a senior unsecured bridge loan facility to reduce financing risks and facilitate Cadbury’s separation of the Company. All of the proceeds from the borrowings were placed into interest-bearing collateral accounts. On April 30, 2008, borrowings under the bridge loan facility were released from the collateral account containing such funds and

returned to the lenders and the 364-day bridge loan facility was terminated. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, the Company incurred $24 million of costs associated with the bridge loan facility. Financing fees of $21 million, which were expensed when the bridge loan facility was terminated, and $5 million of interest expense were included as a component of interest expense. These costs were partially offset as the Company earned $2 million in interest income on the bridge loan while in escrow.

Capital Lease Obligations

Long-term capital lease obligations totaled $15 million and $17 million as of June 30, 2009, and December 31, 2008, respectively. Current obligations related to the Company’s capital leases were $3 million and $2 million as of June 30, 2009, and December 31, 2008, respectively, and were included as a component of accounts payable and accrued expenses.

6. Other Non-Current Assets and Other Non-Current Liabilities

Other non-current liabilities	$	751	$	727


(1)		Amounts represent receivables from or payables to Cadbury under the Tax Indemnity Agreement entered into in connection with the Company’s separation from Cadbury.

7. Income Taxes

The effective tax rates for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008 were 36.7% and 42.6%, respectively. The effective tax rates for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008 were 37.4% and 40.8%, respectively. The decrease in the effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, was primarily driven by separation related tax costs in 2008 that did not recur in 2009 and benefits arising from tax planning effective in 2009.

The Company’s Canadian deferred tax assets as of June 30, 2009, included a separation related balance of $138 million that was offset by a liability due to Cadbury of $114 million driven by the Tax Indemnity Agreement. Anticipated legislation in Canada could result in a future partial write down of the deferred tax asset which would be offset to some extent by a partial write down of the liability due to Cadbury.

Under the Tax Indemnity Agreement, Cadbury has agreed to indemnify DPS for net unrecognized tax benefits and other tax related items of $392 million. This balance increased by $6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2009, and was offset by indemnity income recorded as a component of other income in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. In addition, pursuant to the terms of the Tax Indemnity Agreement, if DPS breaches certain covenants or other obligations or DPS is involved in certain change-in-control transactions, Cadbury may not be required to indemnify the Company.

8. Restructuring Costs

The Company implements restructuring programs from time to time that are designed to improve operating effectiveness and lower costs. When the Company implements these programs, it incurs various charges, including severance and other employment related costs.

(1)		Prior to the Company’s separation from Cadbury, certain of its employees participated in stock-based compensation plans sponsored by Cadbury. These plans provided employees with stock or options to purchase stock in Cadbury. The expense incurred by Cadbury for stock or stock options granted to DPS’ employees has been reflected in the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations in selling, general, and administrative expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008. The interests of the Company’s employees in certain Cadbury benefit plans were converted into one of three Company plans which were approved by the Company’s sole stockholder on May 5, 2008. As a result of this conversion, the participants in these three plans are fully vested in and will receive shares of common stock of the Company on designated future dates. The aggregate number of shares of the Company’s common stock as of June 30, 2009, that are to be distributed under these plans is approximately 200,000 shares.

The Company’s Omnibus Stock Incentive Plans of 2008 and 2009 (collectively, the “DPS Stock Plan”) provide for various long-term incentive awards, including stock options and restricted stock units (“RSUs”).

11. Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the assumed conversion of all dilutive securities. The following table sets forth the computation of basic EPS utilizing the net income for the respective period and the Company’s basic shares outstanding and presents the computation of diluted EPS (in millions, except per share data):

(1)		For periods prior to May 7, 2008, the date DPS distributed the common stock of DPS to Cadbury plc shareholders, the same number of shares is being used for diluted EPS as for basic EPS as no common stock of DPS was previously outstanding and no DPS equity awards were outstanding for the prior periods. Subsequent to May 7, 2008, the number of basic shares includes approximately 500,000 shares related to former Cadbury benefit plans converted to DPS shares on a daily volume weighted average. See Note 10 for information regarding the Company’s stock-based compensation plans.

(2)		Anti-dilutive stock options and RSUs totaling 1.1 million shares were excluded from the diluted weighted average shares outstanding for the three months ended June 30, 2009, and 1.2 million shares were excluded from the diluted weighted average shares outstanding for the six months ended June 30, 2009.

12. Derivatives

DPS is exposed to market risks arising from adverse changes in:

	•		interest rates;

	•		foreign exchange rates; and

	•		commodity prices, affecting the cost of our raw materials.

The Company manages these risks through a variety of strategies, including the use of interest rate swaps, foreign exchange forward contracts, commodity futures contracts and supplier pricing agreements.

The Company formally designates and accounts for interest rate swaps and foreign exchange forward contracts that meet established accounting criteria under SFAS 133 as cash flow hedges. DPS assesses hedge effectiveness and measures hedge ineffectiveness at least quarterly throughout the designated period. The effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative instruments is recorded, net of applicable taxes, in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (“AOCI”), a component of Stockholders’ Equity in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. When net income is affected by the variability of the underlying transaction, the applicable offsetting amount of the gain or loss from the derivative instruments deferred in AOCI is

reclassified to net income and is reported as a component of the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Changes in the fair value of the derivative instruments that do not effectively offset changes in the fair value of the underlying hedged item throughout the designated hedge period (“ineffectiveness”) are recorded in net income each period.

Interest Rates

DPS manages its exposure to volatility in floating interest rates on borrowings under its senior unsecured credit facility through the use of interest rate swaps that effectively convert variable interest rates to fixed rates. The intent of entering into interest rate swaps is to provide predictability in the Company’s overall cost structure. An interest rate swap with a notional amount of $500 million matured in March 2009. During the six months ended June 30, 2009, DPS maintained another interest rate swap, with a notional amount of $1.2 billion with a maturity date of December 31, 2009. In February 2009, the Company entered into an interest rate swap effective December 31, 2009, with a duration of 12 months and a $750 million notional amount that amortizes at the rate of $100 million every quarter. There were no interest rate swaps in place for the three or six months ended June 30, 2008, that qualified for hedge accounting under SFAS 133.

Foreign Exchange

The Company’s Canadian business purchases its inventory through transactions denominated and settled in U.S. Dollars, a currency different from the functional currency of the Canadian business. These inventory purchases are subject to exposure from movements in exchange rates. The Company uses foreign exchange forward contracts to hedge operational exposures resulting from changes in these foreign currency exchange rates. The intent of the foreign exchange contracts is to provide predictability in the Company’s overall cost structure. These foreign exchange contracts, carried at fair value, have maturities between one and 12 months. As of June 30, 2009, the Company had outstanding foreign exchange forward contracts with notional amounts of $42 million. There were no hedge instruments in place for the three or six months ended June 30, 2008, that qualified for hedge accounting under SFAS 133.

Commodities

DPS centrally manages the exposure to volatility in the prices of certain commodities used in its production process through futures contracts and supplier pricing agreements. The intent of contracts and agreements is to provide predictability in the Company’s overall cost structure. The Company enters into futures contracts that economically hedge certain of its risks, although hedge accounting under SFAS 133 may not apply. In these cases, there exists a natural hedging relationship in which changes in the fair value of the instruments act as an economic offset to changes in the fair value of the underlying items. Changes in the fair value of these instruments are recorded in net income throughout the term of the derivative instrument and are reported in the same line item of the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations as the hedged transaction. Gains and losses are recognized as a component of unallocated corporate costs until the Company’s operating segments are affected by the completion of the underlying transaction, at which time the gain or loss is reflected as a component of the respective segment’s operating profit.

For more information on the valuation of derivative instruments, see Note 13. The Company has exposure to credit losses from derivative instruments in an asset position in the event of nonperformance by the counterparties to the agreements. Historically, DPS has not experienced credit losses as a result of counterparty nonperformance. The Company selects and periodically reviews counterparties based on credit ratings, limits its exposure to a single counterparty under defined guidelines, and monitors the market position of the programs at least on a quarterly basis.

13. Fair Value

In accordance with SFAS 157, the Company defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. SFAS 157 provides a framework for measuring fair value and establishes a three-level hierarchy for fair value measurements based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability. The three-level hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurements is as follows:

Level 1 — Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 — Observable inputs such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets.

Level 3 — Valuations with one or more unobservable significant inputs that reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions.

The fair value amounts of long term debt as of June 30, 2009, and December 31, 2008, were estimated based on quoted market prices for traded securities. The difference between the fair value and the carrying value represents the theoretical net premium or discount that would be paid or received to retire all debt at such date.

14. Commitments and Contingencies

Legal Matters

The Company is occasionally subject to litigation or other legal proceedings. Set forth below is a description of the Company’s significant pending legal matters. Although the estimated range of loss, if any, for the pending legal matters described below cannot be estimated at this time, the Company does not believe that the outcome of these, or any other, pending legal matters, individually or collectively, will have a material adverse effect on the business or financial condition of the Company, although such matters may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations or cash flows in a particular period.

Snapple Distributor Litigation

In 2004, one of the Company’s subsidiaries, Snapple Beverage Corp., and several affiliated entities of Snapple Beverage Corp., including Snapple Distributors Inc., were sued in United States District Court, Southern District of New York, by 57 area route distributors for alleged price discrimination, breach of contract, retaliation, tortious interference and breach of the implied duty of good faith and fair dealings arising out of their respective area route distributor agreements. Each plaintiff sought damages in excess of $225 million. The plaintiffs initially filed the case as a class action but withdrew their class certification motion. On September 14, 2007, the court granted the Company’s motion for summary judgment, dismissing the plaintiffs’ federal claims of price discrimination and dismissing, without prejudice, the plaintiffs’ remaining claims under state law. The plaintiffs filed an appeal of the decision and both parties have filed appellate briefs and are awaiting the courts decision. Also, the plaintiffs may decide to re-file the state law claims in state court. The Company believes it has meritorious defenses with respect to the appeal and will defend itself vigorously. However, there is no assurance that the outcome of the appeal, or any trial, if claims are refiled, will be in the Company’s favor.

Snapple Litigation — Labeling Claims

In 2007, Snapple Beverage Corp. was sued by Stacy Holk in New Jersey Superior Court, Monmouth County. The Holk case was filed as a class action. Subsequent to filing, the Holk case was removed to the United States District Court, District of New Jersey. Holk alleges that Snapple’s labeling of certain of its drinks is misleading and/or deceptive and seeks unspecified damages on behalf of the class, including enjoining Snapple from various labeling practices, disgorging profits, reimbursing of monies paid for product and treble damages. Snapple filed a motion to dismiss the Holk case on a variety of grounds. On June 12, 2008, the district court granted Snapple’s motion to dismiss. The plaintiff filed an appeal of the order dismissing the case. On August 12, 2009, the appellate court reversed the judgment and remanded to the district court for further proceedings. In 2007 the attorneys in the Holk case also filed a new action in U.S. District Court, Southern District of New York on behalf of plaintiff, Evan Weiner, with substantially the same allegations and seeking the same damages as in the Holk case. The Company has filed a motion to dismiss the Weiner case on a variety of grounds. The Weiner case is currently stayed. In April 2009, Snapple Beverage Corp. was sued by Frances Von Koenig in United States District Court for the Eastern District of California as a class action with similar allegations to the Holk case and seeking similar damages. A motion to dismiss the Von Koenig case has been filed. The Company believes it has meritorious defenses to the claims asserted in each of these cases and will defend itself vigorously. However, there is no assurance that the outcome of these cases will be favorable to the Company.

     Robert Jones v. Seven Up/RC Bottling Company of Southern California, Inc.
     Nicolas Steele v. Seven Up/RC Bottling Company Inc.
     California Wage Audit

In 2007, one of the Company’s subsidiaries, Seven Up/RC Bottling Company Inc., was sued by Robert Jones in the Superior Court in the State of California (Orange County), alleging that its subsidiary failed to provide meal and rest periods and itemized wage statements in accordance with applicable California wage and hour law. The case was filed as a class action. The class, which has not yet been certified, consists of employees who have held a delivery driver position in California in the past three years. The potential class size could be substantially higher due to the number of individuals who have held these positions over the three year period. On behalf of the class, the plaintiff claims lost wages, waiting time penalties and other penalties for each violation of the statute. The Company believes it has meritorious defenses to the claims asserted and will defend itself vigorously. However, there is no assurance that the outcome of this matter will be in its favor. A case was filed by Nicolas Steele in the same court based on similar facts and causes of action, but involving merchandisers. The court has approved the settlement in the Steele case for an amount that is not material to the Company.

The Company has been requested to conduct an audit of its meal and rest periods for all non-exempt employees in California at the direction of the California Department of Labor. At this time, the Company has declined to conduct such an audit until there is judicial clarification of the intent of the statute. The Company cannot predict the outcome of such an audit.

Environmental, Health and Safety Matters

The Company operates many manufacturing, bottling and distribution facilities. In these and other aspects of the Company’s business, it is subject to a variety of federal, state and local environment, health and safety laws and regulations. The Company maintains environmental, health and safety policies and a quality, environmental, health and safety program designed to ensure compliance with applicable laws and regulations. However, the nature of the Company’s business exposes it to the risk of claims with respect to environmental, health and safety matters, and there can be no assurance that material costs or liabilities will not be incurred in connection with such claims. However, the Company is not currently named as a party in any judicial or administrative proceeding relating to environmental, health and safety matters which would materially affect its operations.

Compliance Matters

The Company is currently undergoing state audits for the years 1981 through 2008, spanning nine states and seven of the Company’s entities within the Packaged Beverages segment. The Company has accrued an estimated liability based on the current facts and circumstances. However, there is no assurance of the outcome of the audits.

15. Segments

The Company presents segment information in accordance with SFAS No. 131, Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information, which established reporting and disclosure standards for an enterprise’s operating segments. Operating segments

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)

are defined as components of an enterprise that are businesses for which separate financial information is available and for which the financial information is regularly reviewed by the company’s chief executive officer.

Effective January 1, 2009, the Company modified its internal reporting and operating segments to better reflect its business structure and to provide greater clarity and transparency. Accordingly, the operating segments reported within this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q reflect the changes to the internal reporting structure and operating segments.

The Company’s operating structure consisted of the following three operating segments as of June 30, 2009:

	•		The Beverage Concentrates segment reflects sales of the Company’s branded concentrates and syrup to third party bottlers primarily in the United States and Canada. Most of the brands in this segment are carbonated soft drink brands.

	•		The Packaged Beverages segment reflects sales in the United States and Canada from the manufacture and distribution of finished beverages and other products, including sales of the Company’s own brands and third party brands, through both DSD and warehouse direct delivery systems.

	•		The Latin America Beverages segment reflects sales in the Mexico and Caribbean markets from the manufacture and distribution of both concentrates and finished beverages.

	The Company has made the following changes to its financial segment information:

	•		Intersegment sales. All intersegment sales are made at cost and intersegment eliminations are reported as part of the segment results.

	•		Allocations of certain trade and marketing costs. Trade and marketing expenditures are allocated to the Beverage Concentrates and Packaged Beverages segments based on brand volume.

	•		Allocations of overhead and selling costs. Certain overhead costs, which are managed at a corporate level, such as information technology, back-office shared services, finance, research and development and human resources, are no longer allocated to the segments. These costs are now reported as unallocated corporate costs. Additionally, the Company has changed its allocation methodology for certain combined selling activities.

	•		Other adjustments previously excluded from the segment profitability measures. Certain items, such as LIFO inventory adjustments, the impact of foreign exchange, and other income and expense items that previously were included in the “other” line item within adjustments are reported as a component of segment operating profit (loss) (“SOP”).

Segment results are based on management reports. Net sales and SOP are the significant financial measures used to assess the operating performance of the Company’s operating segments.

16. Related Party Transactions

Allocated Expenses

Prior to the Company’s separation from Cadbury, Cadbury allocated certain costs to the Company, including costs for certain corporate functions provided for the Company by Cadbury. These allocations were based on the most relevant allocation method for the services provided. To the extent expenses were paid by Cadbury on behalf of the Company, they were allocated based upon the direct costs incurred. Where specific identification of expenses was not practicable, the costs of such services were allocated based upon the most relevant allocation method to the services provided, primarily either as a percentage of net sales or headcount of the Company. The Company was allocated less than $1 million and $6 million of costs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, respectively. Post separation, there were no expenses allocated to DPS from Cadbury.

Cash Management

Prior to separation, the Company’s cash was available for use and was regularly swept by Cadbury operations in the United States at Cadbury’s discretion. Cadbury also funded the Company’s operating and investing activities as needed. Following the separation, the Company has funded its liquidity needs from cash flow from operations.

Interest Expense and Interest Income

The Company recorded interest expense of $18 million and $67 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, respectively, related to interest bearing related party debt with other wholly-owned subsidiaries of Cadbury that were unrelated to the Company’s business.

The Company recorded $3 million and $19 million of interest income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, respectively, related to a note receivable balance with wholly-owned subsidiaries of Cadbury.

17. Guarantor and Non-Guarantor Financial Information

The Company’s 6.12% senior notes due 2013, 6.82% senior notes due 2018 and 7.45% senior notes due 2038 (the “notes”) are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by substantially all of the Company’s existing and future direct and indirect domestic subsidiaries (except two immaterial subsidiaries associated with the Company’s charitable foundations) (the “guarantors”), as defined in the indenture governing the notes. The guarantors are wholly-owned either directly or indirectly by the Company and jointly and severally guarantee the Company’s obligations under the notes. None of the Company’s subsidiaries organized outside of the United States guarantee the notes.

The following schedules present the guarantor and non-guarantor information for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, and as of June 30, 2009, and December 31, 2008. The consolidating schedules are provided in accordance with the reporting requirements for guarantor subsidiaries.

On May 7, 2008, Cadbury transferred its Americas Beverages business to Dr Pepper Snapple Group, Inc., which became an independent publicly-traded company. Prior to the transfer, Dr Pepper Snapple Group, Inc. did not have any operations. Accordingly, activity for Dr Pepper Snapple Group, Inc. (the “parent”) is reflected in the consolidating statements from May 7, 2008 forward.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

You should read the following discussion in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008.

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), including, in particular, statements about future events, future financial performance, plans, strategies, expectations, prospects, competitive environment, regulation and availability of raw materials. Forward-looking statements include all statements that are not historical facts and can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as the words “may,” “will,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “plan,” “intend” or the negative of these terms or similar expressions in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. We have based these forward-looking statements on our current views with respect to future events and financial performance. Our actual financial performance could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements due to the inherent uncertainty of estimates, forecasts and projections, and our financial performance may be better or worse than anticipated. Given these uncertainties, you should not put undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. All of the forward-looking statements are qualified in their entirety by reference to the factors discussed under “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008. Forward-looking statements represent our estimates and assumptions only as of the date that they were made. We do not undertake any duty to update the forward-looking statements, and the estimates and assumptions associated with them, after the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, except to the extent required by applicable securities laws.

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains some of our owned or licensed trademarks, trade names and service marks, which we refer to as our brands. All of the product names included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are either our registered trademarks or those of our licensors.

Cadbury plc and Cadbury Schweppes plc are hereafter collectively referred to as “Cadbury” unless otherwise indicated.

Overview

We are a leading integrated brand owner, bottler and distributor of non-alcoholic beverages in the United States, Canada and Mexico, with a diverse portfolio of flavored (non-cola) carbonated soft drinks (“CSD”) and non-carbonated beverages (“NCB”), including ready-to-drink teas, juices, juice drinks and mixers. Our brand portfolio includes popular CSD brands such as Dr Pepper, 7UP, Sunkist soda, A&W, Canada Dry, Crush, Schweppes, Squirt and Peñafiel, and NCB brands such as Snapple, Mott’s, Hawaiian Punch, Clamato, Mr & Mrs T, Margaritaville and Rose’s. Our largest brand, Dr Pepper, is the #2 selling flavored CSD in the United States according to The Nielsen Company. We have some of the most recognized beverage brands in North America, with significant consumer awareness levels and long histories that evoke strong emotional connections with consumers.

We operate as a brand owner, a bottler and a distributor through our three segments. We believe our brand ownership, bottling and distribution are more integrated than the U.S. operations of our principal competitors and that this differentiation provides us with a competitive advantage. We believe our integrated business model strengthens our route-to-market, provides opportunities for net sales and profit growth through the alignment of the economic interests of our brand ownership and our bottling and distribution businesses, enables us to be more flexible and responsive to the changing needs of our large retail customers and allows us to more fully leverage our scale and reduce costs by creating greater geographic manufacturing and distribution coverage.

The beverage market is subject to some seasonal variations. Our beverage sales are generally higher during the warmer months and also can be influenced by the timing of holidays and religious festivals as well as weather fluctuations.

Effective January 1, 2009, we modified our internal reporting and operating segments to better reflect our business structure and to provide greater clarity and transparency. Accordingly, the operating segments reported within this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q reflect the changes to our internal reporting structure and our operating segments: Beverage Concentrates, Packaged Beverages and Latin America Beverages.

We have made the following changes to our financial segment information:

	•		Intersegment sales. All intersegment sales are made at cost and intersegment eliminations are reported as part of the segment results.

	•		Allocations of certain trade and marketing costs. Trade and marketing expenditures are allocated to the Beverage Concentrates and Packaged Beverages segments based on brand volume.

	•		Allocations of overhead and selling costs. Certain overhead costs, which are managed at a corporate level, such as information technology, back-office shared services, finance, research and development and human resources, are no longer allocated to the segments. These costs are now reported as unallocated corporate costs. Additionally, we have changed our allocation methodology for certain combined selling activities.

	•		Other adjustments previously excluded from the segment profitability measures. Certain items, such as LIFO inventory adjustments, the impact of foreign exchange, and other income and expense items that previously were included in the “other” line item within adjustments are reported as a component of segment operating profit.

Beverage Concentrates

Our Beverage Concentrates segment is principally a brand ownership business. In this segment we manufacture beverage concentrates and syrups for sale primarily in the United States and Canada. Most of the brands in this segment are CSD brands. Key brands include Dr Pepper, 7UP, Sunkist soda, A&W, Canada Dry, Crush, Schweppes, Squirt, RC, Sundrop, Diet Rite, Welch’s, Vernors and Country Time and the concentrate form of Hawaiian Punch.

Almost all of our beverage concentrates are manufactured at our plant in St. Louis, Missouri. The beverage concentrates are shipped to third party bottlers, as well as to our own bottling system, who combine them with carbonation, water, sweeteners and other ingredients, package in PET, glass bottles and aluminum cans, and sell as a finished beverage to retailers. Concentrate prices historically have been reviewed and adjusted at least on an annual basis.

Syrup is shipped to fountain customers, such as fast food restaurants, who mix the syrup with water and carbonation to create a finished beverage at the point of sale to consumers. Dr Pepper represents most of our fountain channel volume.

Our Beverage Concentrates’ brands are sold by our bottlers, including our own Packaged Beverages segment, through all major retail channels including supermarkets, fountains, mass merchandisers, club stores, vending machines, convenience stores, gas stations, small groceries, drug chains and dollar stores.

Packaged Beverages

Our Packaged Beverages segment is both a brand ownership and a distribution business. In this segment, we primarily manufacture and distribute packaged beverages and other products, including our brands, third party owned brands and certain private label beverages, in the United States and Canada. Key NCB brands in this segment include Snapple, Mott’s, Hawaiian Punch, Clamato, Yoo-Hoo, Mr and Mrs T, Rose’s and Margaritaville. Key CSD brands in this segment include Dr Pepper, 7UP, Sunkist soda, A&W, Canada Dry, Squirt, Diet Rite and Venom Energy. Additionally, we distribute third party brands such as FIJI mineral water and Arizona tea and a portion of our sales come from bottling beverages and other products for private label owners or others for a fee. Although the majority of our Packaged Beverages’ net sales relate to our brands, we also provide a route-to-market for third party brand owners seeking effective distribution for their new and emerging brands. These brands give us exposure in certain markets to fast growing segments of the beverage industry with minimal capital investment.

Our Packaged Beverages’ products are manufactured in several facilities across the United States and are sold or distributed to retailers and their warehouses by our own distribution network or by third party distributors. The raw materials used to manufacture our products include aluminum cans and ends, glass bottles, PET bottles and caps, paper products, sweeteners, juices, water and other ingredients.

We sell our Packaged Beverages’ products both through direct store delivery, supported by a fleet of more than 5,000 trucks and approximately 12,000 employees, including sales representatives, merchandisers, drivers and warehouse workers, as well as through warehouse direct sales to all major retail channels, including supermarkets, fountains, mass merchandisers, club stores, vending machines, convenience stores, gas stations, small groceries, drug chains and dollar stores.

Latin America Beverages

Our Latin America Beverages segment is both a brand ownership and a distribution business. This segment participates mainly in the carbonated mineral water, flavored CSD, bottled water and vegetable juice categories, with particular strength in carbonated mineral water and grapefruit flavored CSDs. Key brands include Peñafiel, Squirt, Clamato and Aguafiel.

In Mexico, we manufacture and distribute our products through our bottling operations and third party bottlers and distributors. In the Caribbean, we distribute our products through third party distributors. In Mexico, we also participate in a joint venture to

manufacture Aguafiel brand water with Acqua Minerale San Benedetto. We provide expertise in the Mexican beverage market and Acqua Minerale San Benedetto provides expertise in water production and new packaging technologies.

We sell our finished beverages through all major Mexican retail channels, including the “mom and pop” stores, supermarkets, hypermarkets, and on premise channels.

Volume

In evaluating our performance, we consider different volume measures depending on whether we sell beverage concentrates and syrups or packaged beverages.

Volume in Bottler Case Sales

We measure volume in bottler case sales (“volume (BCS)”) as sales of packaged beverages, in equivalent 288 fluid ounce cases, sold by us and our bottling partners to retailers and independent distributors. Bottler case sales are calculated based upon volumes from both our bottling system and volumes reported to us by third party bottlers.

Beverage Concentrates Sales Volume

In our beverage concentrates and syrup businesses, we measure our sales volume in two ways: “concentrates case sales” and “bottler case sales.” The unit of measurement for both concentrates case sales and bottler case sales equals 288 fluid ounces of packaged beverage, or 24 twelve ounce servings.

Concentrates case sales represent our physical volume of concentrates and syrup shipments to bottlers, retailers and independent distributors. They are the measure upon which our net sales is based and a concentrate case is the amount of concentrate needed to make one case of 288 fluid ounces of packaged beverages.

Bottler case sales and concentrates case sales are not equal during any given period due to changes in bottler concentrates inventory levels, which can be affected by seasonality, bottler inventory and manufacturing practices, and the timing of price increases and new product introductions. Although net sales in our concentrate businesses are based on concentrate case sales, we believe that bottler case sales are also a significant measure of our performance because they measure sales of packaged beverages into retail channels.

Packaged Beverages Sales Volume

In our packaged beverages businesses, we measure volume as case sales to customers. A case sale represents a unit of measurement equal to 288 fluid ounces of packaged beverages sold by us. Case sales include both our owned brands and certain brands licensed to and/or distributed by us.

Company Highlights and Recent Developments

	•		Net sales totaled $1,481 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009, a decrease of $64 million, or 4%, from the three months ended June 30, 2008.

	•		Net income for the three months ended June 30, 2009, was $158 million, compared to $108 million for the year ago period, an increase of $50 million, or 46%.

	•		Earnings per share was $0.62 per share for the three months ended June, 2009, compared with $0.42 for the year ago period.

Results of Operations

For the periods prior to May 7, 2008, our condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a “carve-out” basis from Cadbury’s consolidated financial statements using historical results of operations, assets and liabilities attributable to Cadbury’s beverage business in the United States, Canada, Mexico and the Caribbean (“the Americas Beverages business”) and including allocations of expenses from Cadbury. The historical Americas Beverages business information is our predecessor financial information. We eliminate from our financial results all intercompany transactions between entities included in the combination and the intercompany transactions with our equity method investees.

References in the financial tables to percentage changes that are not meaningful are denoted by “NM.”

Volume. Volume (BCS) increased 3% for the three months ended June 30, 2009, compared with the year ago period. In the U.S. and Canada, volume increased 3% and in Mexico and the Caribbean, volumes decreased 1%. CSD and NCB volumes each increased 3%. The absence of Hansen Natural Corporation (“Hansen”) product sales following the termination of the distribution agreements in certain markets in the U.S. and Mexico negatively impacted both total volumes and CSD volumes by one percentage point for the three months ended June 30, 2009. In CSDs, Crush added an incremental 11 million cases to volume for the three months ended June 30, 2009 due to expanded distribution. Dr Pepper volumes increased by 4% compared with the year ago period. Our “Core 4” brands (7UP, Sunkist, A&W and Canada Dry) decreased 2% compared to the year ago period. In NCBs, 18% growth in Hawaiian Punch and 8% growth in Mott’s were partially offset by a 15% decline in Snapple compared with the year ago period. Snapple volume declined primarily due to higher net pricing associated with the Snapple premium product restage and the impact of a slow down in consumer spending on premium beverage products. We are extending and repositioning our Snapple offerings to support the long term health of the brand.

Net Sales. Net sales decreased $64 million, or 4%, for the three months ended June 30, 2009, compared with the year ago period. The termination of the Hansen distribution agreement reduced net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2009, by $70 million. Additionally, the impact of foreign currency reduced net sales by approximately $32 million. These decreases were partially offset by price increases and an increase in volumes, primarily driven by expanded distribution of Crush.

Gross Profit. Gross profit increased $34 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009, compared with the year ago period as a decrease in commodity costs and the impact of price increases offset the decline in net sales. Gross margin for the three months ended June 30, 2009, increased to 60%, from 55% for the year ago period.

Income from Operations. Income from operations increased $28 million to $297 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009, compared with the year ago period driven by the increase in gross profit and a reduction in restructuring costs, partially offset by an

increase in selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses. The increase in SG&A expenses was primarily attributable to increased compensation-related expenses, partially offset by a reduction in transportation costs as a result of lower fuel prices.

Interest Expense, Interest Income and Other Income. Interest expense decreased $40 million compared with the year ago period. Interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2009, reflects our capital structure as a stand-alone company and principally relates to our term loan A facility and senior unsecured notes. During the three months ended June 30, 2008, we incurred $26 million related to our bridge loan facility, including $21 million of financing fees expensed when the bridge loan facility was terminated on April 30, 2008, and additional interest expense on debt balances with subsidiaries of Cadbury prior to our separation. The $9 million decrease in interest income was due to the loss of interest income earned on note receivable balances with subsidiaries of Cadbury prior to our separation. Other income of $2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009, related to indemnity income associated with the Tax Indemnity Agreement with Cadbury.

Provision for Income Taxes. The effective tax rates for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008 were 36.7% and 42.6%, respectively. The decrease in the effective rate for the three months ended June 30, 2009, was primarily driven by 2008 separation related tax costs that did not recur in 2009 and benefits arising from tax planning effective in 2009.

Results of Operations by Segment

We report our business in three segments: Beverage Concentrates, Packaged Beverages and Latin America Beverages. The key financial measures management uses to assess the performance of our segments are net sales and segment operating profit (loss) (“SOP”). The following tables set forth net sales and SOP for our segments for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, as well as the adjustments necessary to reconcile our total segment results to our consolidated results presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP (in millions).

Beverage Concentrates

The following table details our Beverage Concentrates segment’s net sales and SOP for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008 (dollars in millions):


	For the
	Three Months Ended
	June 30,				Amount
	2009		2008		Change
Net sales	$	281	$	269	$	12
SOP		184		174		10

Net sales increased $12 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009, compared with the year ago period due to concentrate price increases along with a 4% increase in volumes. The expanded distribution of Crush added an incremental $13 million to net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2009. The increase in net sales was partially offset by higher fountain food service discounts and market place spending as well as a $3 million impact of foreign currency.

SOP increased $10 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009, as compared with the year ago period, primarily driven by the increase in net sales.

Volume (BCS) increased 4% for the three months ended June 30, 2009, as compared with the year ago period, primarily driven by the expanded distribution of Crush, which added an incremental 11 million cases in 2009. Dr Pepper increased 4% led by the launch of the Cherry line extensions and increased Diet Dr Pepper distribution. The “Core 4” brands (7UP, Sunkist, A&W and Canada Dry) decreased 2%.

Packaged Beverages

The following table details our Packaged Beverages segment’s net sales and SOP for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008 (dollars in millions):


	For the
	Three Months Ended
	June 30,				Amount
	2009		2008		Change
Net sales	$	1,105	$	1,152	$	(47	)
SOP		170		143		27

Sales volumes increased approximately 1% for the three months ended June 30, 2009, compared with the year ago period. The absence of sales of Hansen’s products following the termination of that distribution agreement negatively impacted total volumes by approximately 2%. Increased promotional activities drove a double-digit volume increase in Hawaiian Punch and a high single-digit increase in Mott’s. Snapple volume declined double digits primarily due to higher net pricing associated with the Snapple premium product restage and a weaker economy affecting sales of premium-priced beverage products. Dr Pepper volumes increased low single digits led by the launch of the Cherry line extensions and increased Diet Dr Pepper distribution. Volumes of our “Core Four” brands (7UP, Sunkist, A&W and Canada Dry) decreased low single digits.

Net sales decreased $47 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009, compared with the year ago period. The termination of the Hansen distribution agreement reduced net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2009, by $64 million. Net sales were favorably impacted by price increases, primarily in Mott’s, Snapple and CSDs, an increase in co-packing revenues and volume increases. The increase in net sales was partially offset by an unfavorable product mix as well as a $7 million impact of foreign currency.

SOP increased $27 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009, compared with the year ago period primarily due to lower costs for packaging materials, sweeteners and other commodity costs, as well as a decrease in fuel and transportation costs. These increases in SOP were partially offset by higher marketing and compensation-related costs. The termination of the Hansen distribution agreement reduced SOP by approximately $16 million.

Latin America Beverages

The following table details our Latin America Beverages segment’s net sales and SOP for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008 (dollars in millions):


	For the
	Three Months Ended
	June 30,				Amount
	2009		2008		Change
Net sales	$	95	$	124	$	(29	)
SOP		14		34		(20	)

Sales volumes decreased 1% for the three months ended June 30, 2009, compared with the year ago period. The absence of sales of Hansen’s products due to the termination of that distribution agreement negatively impacted total volumes by approximately 1%. Declines in Squirt largely offset an increase in volumes driven by distribution route expansion and gains in Crush with the introduction of new flavors in a 2.3 liter value offering.

Net sales decreased $29 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009, compared with the year ago period primarily driven by a $22 million reduction due to the devaluation of the Mexican peso against the U.S. dollar and a $6 million decrease resulting from the termination of the Hansen distribution agreement.

SOP decreased $20 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009, primarily due to the devaluation of the Mexican peso combined with the termination of the Hansen distribution agreement and an increase in costs associated with distribution route expansion.

Volume. Volume (BCS) increased 4% for the six months ended June 30, 2009, compared with the year ago period. In the U.S. and Canada, volume increased 4% and in Mexico and the Caribbean, volumes remained flat. CSD volumes increased 3% and NCB volumes increased 4%. The absence of Hansen sales following the termination of the distribution agreements in certain markets in the U.S. and Mexico negatively impacted both total volumes and CSD volumes by one percentage point for the six months ended June 30, 2009. In CSDs, Crush added an incremental 21 million cases to volume for the six months ended June 30, 2009, due to expanded distribution. Dr Pepper volumes increased by 2% compared with the year ago period. Our “Core 4” brands (7UP, Sunkist, A&W and Canada Dry) decreased 1%. In NCBs, 24% growth in Hawaiian Punch and 5% growth in Mott’s were partially offset by an 18% decline in Snapple compared with the year ago period. Snapple volume declined primarily due to higher net pricing associated with the Snapple premium product restage and the impact of a slow down in consumer spending on premium beverage products. We are extending and repositioning our Snapple offerings to support the long term health of the brand.

Net Sales. Net sales decreased $99 million, or 3%, for the six months ended June 30, 2009, compared with the year ago period. The termination of the Hansen distribution agreement reduced net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2009, by $124 million. Additionally, the impact of foreign currency reduced net sales by approximately $60 million. These decreases were partially offset by price increases and an increase in volumes, primarily driven by expanded distribution of Crush.

Gross Profit. Gross profit increased $33 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009, compared with the year ago period as a decrease in commodity costs and the impact of price increases offset the decline in net sales. Gross margin for the six months ended June 30, 2009, increased to 59% from 56% for the year ago period.

Income from Operations. Income from operations increased $107 million to $562 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009, compared with the year ago period. The increase was driven by the increase in gross profit, a reduction in restructuring costs and one-time gains of $51 million and $11 million related to the termination of the Hansen distribution agreements and the sale of Crush distribution rights, respectively. SG&A expenses increased by $5 million primarily due to an increase in compensation-related costs, partially offset by decreased transportation costs as a result of lower fuel prices.

In October 2008, Hansen notified us that they were terminating our agreements to distribute Monster Energy as well as other Hansen’s branded beverages in the U.S. effective November 10, 2008. In December 2008, Hansen notified us that they were terminating the agreement to distribute Monster Energy drinks in Mexico, effective January 26, 2009. During the six months ended June 30, 2009, we recognized a one-time gain of $51 million associated with the termination of the distribution agreements (receipt of termination payments of $53 million less the write-off of intangible assets of $2 million), recorded as a component of other operating income.

In January 2009, we sold certain distribution rights for the Crush brand for portions of the midwest United States to a Pepsi affiliated bottler. As part of this transaction, we acquired certain distribution rights for various brands in the midwest from that Pepsi affiliated bottler. We realized a net gain associated with this transaction of $11 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009, recorded as a component of other operating income.

Interest Expense, Interest Income and Other Income. Interest expense decreased $33 million compared with the year ago period. Interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2009, reflects our capital structure as a stand-alone company and principally relates to our term loan A facility and senior unsecured notes. During the six months ended June 30, 2008, we incurred $26 million related to our bridge loan facility, including $21 million of financing fees expensed when the bridge loan facility was terminated on April 30, 2008, and additional interest expense on debt balances with subsidiaries of Cadbury prior to our separation. Interest income decreased $22 million compared to the year ago period due to the loss of interest income earned on note receivable balances with subsidiaries of Cadbury prior to our separation. Other income of $5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009, related to indemnity income associated with the Tax Indemnity Agreement with Cadbury.

Provision for Income Taxes. The effective tax rates for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008 were 37.4% and 40.8%, respectively. The decrease in the effective rate for the six months ended June 30, 2009, was primarily driven by 2008 separation related tax costs that did not recur in 2009 and benefits arising from tax planning effective in 2009.

SOP		334		300		34

Net sales increased $33 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009, compared with the year ago period due to a 5% increase in volumes along with concentrate price increases. The expanded distribution of Crush added an incremental $38 million to net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2009. The increase in net sales was partially offset by higher food fountain service discounts and market place spending as well as a $6 million impact of foreign currency.

SOP increased $34 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009, as compared with the year ago period, primarily driven by the increase in net sales.

Volume (BCS) increased 5% for the six months ended June 30, 2009, as compared with the year ago period, primarily driven by the expanded distribution of Crush, which added an incremental 21 million cases in 2009. Dr Pepper increased 3% led by the launch of the Cherry line extensions and increased Diet Dr Pepper distribution. The “Core 4” brands (7UP, Sunkist, A&W and Canada Dry) decreased 1%.

Packaged Beverages

The following table details our Packaged Beverages segment’s net sales and SOP for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008 (dollars in millions):


	For the
	Six Months Ended

	2009		2008		Change
Net sales	$	2,049	$	2,130	$	(81	)
SOP		277		244		33

Sales volumes increased approximately 2% for the six months ended June 30, 2009, compared with the year ago period. The absence of sales of Hansen’s products following the termination of the distribution agreement negatively impacted total volumes by approximately 2%. Increased promotional activities drove strong double-digit volume increases in Hawaiian Punch and a mid-single digit increase in Mott’s. Snapple volume declined double digits primarily due to higher net pricing associated with the Snapple premium product restage and a weaker economy affecting sales of premium-priced beverage products. Dr Pepper volumes increased low single digits led by the launch of the Cherry line extensions and increased Diet Dr Pepper distribution. Volumes of our “Core Four” brands (7UP, Sunkist, A&W and Canada Dry) remained flat.

Net sales decreased $81 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009, compared with the year ago period. The termination of the Hansen distribution agreement reduced net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2009, by $115 million. Net sales were favorably impacted by price increases, primarily in Mott’s, Snapple and CSDs, an increase in co-packing revenues and volume increases. The increase in net sales was partially offset by an unfavorable product mix as well as a $13 million impact of foreign currency.

SOP increased $33 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009, compared with the year ago period primarily due to lower costs for packaging materials, sweeteners and other commodity costs, as well as a decrease in fuel and transportation costs. These increases in SOP were partially offset by higher marketing costs. The termination of the Hansen distribution agreement reduced SOP by approximately $25 million.

Latin America Beverages

The following table details our Latin America Beverages segment’s net sales and SOP for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008 (dollars in millions):


	For the
	Six Months Ended
	June 30,				Amount
	2009		2008		Change
Net sales	$	168	$	219	$	(51	)
SOP		23		51		(28	)

Sales volumes for the six months ended June 30, 2009, remained flat compared with the year ago period as the loss of Hansen’s products due to the termination of that distribution agreement and declines in Squirt offset an increase in volumes driven by distribution route expansion and gains in Crush with the introduction of new flavors in a 2.3 liter value offering.

Net sales decreased $51 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009, compared with the year ago period primarily driven by a $41 million reduction due to the devaluation of the Mexican peso against the U.S. dollar and a $9 million decrease resulting from the termination of the Hansen distribution agreement.

SOP decreased $28 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009, primarily due to the devaluation of the Mexican peso combined with the termination of the Hansen distribution agreement, a shift to value products and an increase in transportation costs related to channel mix.

Critical Accounting Estimates

The process of preparing our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the use of estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses. Critical accounting

estimates are both fundamental to the portrayal of a company’s financial condition and results and require difficult, subjective or complex estimates and assessments. These estimates and judgments are based on historical experience, future expectations and other factors and assumptions we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. The most significant estimates and judgments are reviewed on an ongoing basis and revised when necessary. Actual amounts may differ from these estimates and judgments. We have identified the following policies as critical accounting policies:

	•		revenue recognition;

	•		customer marketing programs and incentives;

	•		stock-based compensation;

	•		pension and postretirement benefits;

	•		risk management programs;

	•		income taxes;

	•		goodwill and other indefinite lived intangible assets; and

	•		definite lived intangible assets.

These critical accounting policies are discussed in greater detail in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Trends and Uncertainties Affecting Liquidity

We believe that the following recent transactions and trends and uncertainties may impact liquidity:

	•		changes in economic factors and recent global financial events could impact consumers’ purchasing power, which could consequently impact our ability to fund our operating requirements with cash provided by operations;

	•		changes in economic factors and recent global financial events could have a negative impact on the ability of our customers to obtain financing and to timely pay their obligations to us, thus reducing our operating cash flow;

	•		we incurred significant third party debt and assumed significant pension obligations in connection with our separation from Cadbury;

	•		we will continue to make capital expenditures to build new manufacturing capacity, upgrade our existing plants and distribution fleet of trucks, replace and expand our cold drink equipment, make investments in IT systems, and from time-to-time invest in restructuring programs in order to improve operating efficiencies and lower costs; and

	•		we may make further acquisitions.

Senior Unsecured Credit Facility

Our senior unsecured credit agreement and revolving credit facility (collectively, the “senior unsecured credit facility”) provides senior unsecured financing of up to $2.7 billion, consisting of:

	•		A senior unsecured term loan A facility in an aggregate principal amount of $2.2 billion with a maturity in 2013. As of June 30, 2009, we had $1.525 billion outstanding under the term loan A facility.

	•		A revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of $500 million with a maturity in 2013. The revolving credit facility was undrawn as of June 30, 2009, except to the extent utilized by letters of credit. Up to $75 million of the revolving credit facility is available for the issuance of letters of credit, of which $43 million was utilized as of June 30, 2009. We may use borrowings under the revolving credit facility for working capital and general corporate purposes.

We are required to pay annual amortization in equal quarterly installments on the aggregate principal amount of the term loan A equal to: (i) 10%, or $220 million, per year for installments due in the first and second years following the initial date of funding, (ii) 15%, or $330 million, per year for installments due in the third and fourth years following the initial date of funding, and (iii) 50%, or $1.1 billion, for installments due in the fifth year following the initial date of funding. During the six months ended June 30, 2009, we made optional principal repayments totaling $280 million, prepaying our principal obligations through September 2010. Since our separation from Cadbury, we have made combined scheduled and optional repayments toward the principal totaling $675 million.

Borrowings under the senior unsecured credit facility bear interest at a floating rate per annum based upon the London interbank offered rate for dollars (“LIBOR”) or the alternate base rate (“ABR”), in each case plus an applicable margin which varies based upon our debt ratings, from 1.00% to 2.50%, in the case of LIBOR loans and 0.00% to 1.50% in the case of ABR loans. The alternate base rate means the greater of (a) JPMorgan Chase Bank’s prime rate and (b) the federal funds effective rate plus one half of 1%. Interest is payable on the last day of the interest period, but not less than quarterly, in the case of any LIBOR loan and on the last day of March, June, September and December of each year in the case of any ABR loan. The average interest rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, was 4.5% and 4.8%, respectively.

We utilize interest rate swaps to effectively convert variable interest rates to fixed rates. An interest rate swap with a notional amount of $500 million matured during March 2009. During the six months ended June 30, 2009, we maintained another interest rate swap, with a notional amount of $1.2 billion with a maturity date of December 31, 2009.

All obligations under the senior unsecured credit facility are guaranteed by substantially all of our existing and future direct and indirect domestic subsidiaries.

The senior unsecured credit facility requires us to comply with a maximum total leverage ratio covenant and a minimum interest coverage ratio covenant, as defined in the credit agreement. The senior unsecured credit facility also contains certain usual and customary representations and warranties, affirmative and negative covenants and events of default. As of June 30, 2009, we were in compliance with all covenant requirements.

Senior Unsecured Notes

As of June 30, 2009, we had senior unsecured notes outstanding totaling $1.7 billion, consisting of $250 million aggregate principal amount of 6.12% senior notes due 2013, $1.2 billion aggregate principal amount of 6.82% senior notes due 2018, and $250 million aggregate principal amount of 7.45% senior notes due 2038. The weighted average interest cost of the senior notes is 6.8%. Interest on the senior unsecured notes is payable semi-annually on May 1 and November 1 and is subject to increase if either of two rating agencies downgrades the debt rating associated with the notes.

The indenture governing the notes, among other things, limits our ability to incur indebtedness secured by principal properties, to incur certain sale and lease back transactions and to enter into certain mergers or transfers of substantially all of our assets. The notes are guaranteed by substantially all of our existing and future direct and indirect domestic subsidiaries.

Debt Ratings

As of June 30, 2009, our debt ratings were Baa3 with a stable outlook from Moody’s Investor Service and BBB- with a negative outlook from Standard & Poor’s. These debt ratings impact the interest we pay on our financing arrangement. A downgrade of one or both of our debt ratings could increase our interest expense and decrease the cash available to fund anticipated obligations.

Cash Management

We fund our liquidity needs from cash flow from operations with additional amounts available under financing arrangements.

Capital Expenditures

Cash paid for capital expenditures was $138 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009. Capital additions for the six months ended June 30, 2009, totaled $111 million, and primarily related to the development of our new manufacturing and distribution center in Victorville, California, expansion and replacement of existing cold drink equipment, and IT investments for new systems. We continue to expect to incur discretionary annual capital expenditures in an amount equal to approximately 5% of our net sales which we expect to fund through cash provided by operating activities.

Acquisitions

We may make future acquisitions. For example, we may make acquisitions of regional bottling companies, distributors, and distribution rights to further extend our geographic coverage. Any acquisitions may require future capital expenditures and restructuring expenses.

Liquidity

Based on our current and anticipated level of operations, we believe that our proceeds from operating cash flows will be sufficient to meet our anticipated obligations. Excess cash provided by operating activities may be used to reduce our debt obligations and fund capital expenditures. To the extent that our operating cash flows are not sufficient to meet our liquidity needs, we may utilize amounts available under our revolving credit facility.

The following table summarizes our cash activity for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008 (in millions):


	For the
	Six Months Ended
	June 30,
	2009			2008
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	371		$	278
Net cash (used in) provided by investing activities		(73	)		1,236
Net cash used in financing activities		(281	)		(1,282	)

Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities increased $93 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009, compared with the year ago period. The $87 million increase in net income included $62 million related to one-time pre-tax gains from the termination of the Hansen distribution agreements and the sale of Crush distribution rights during the six months ended June 30, 2009, and the write-off of $21 million of deferred financing costs related to our bridge loan facility during the six months ended June 30, 2008. Working capital favorability was driven by a decrease in trade accounts receivable partially offset by a decrease in trade accounts payable. Other non-current assets increased during the six months ended June 30, 2009, primarily due to an increase in customer incentive programs and tax indemnity receivables due from Cadbury. Cash provided by operations for the six months ended June 30, 2008, was unfavorably impacted as a result of our separation from Cadbury.

Net Cash Used in Investing Activities

Cash used in investing activities increased by $1.3 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2009, compared with the year ago period. During the six months ended June 30, 2008, cash provided by investing activities included $1.4 billion net proceeds from the repayment of related party notes receivable due to the separation from Cadbury. For the six months ended June 30, 2009, cash used in investing activities included $68 million received upon the termination of the Hansen distribution agreements and the sale of certain distribution rights for the Crush brand. Capital expenditures were consistent for the six months ended June 30, 2009, compared with the year ago period.

Net Cash Used in Financing Activities

The decrease of $1 billion in cash used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2009, compared with the year ago period was driven by our separation from Cadbury. The following table summarizes the issuances and payments of third party and related party debt for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008 (in millions):


	For the
	Six Months Ended

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents were $235 million as of June 30, 2009, an increase of $21 million from $214 million as of December 31, 2008. Cash and cash equivalent balances increased due to an increase in foreign cash balances and strong cash collection at quarter end.

Our cash balances are used to fund working capital requirements, debt and interest payments, capital expenditures and income tax obligations. Excess cash balances may be used to reduce our debt obligations. Cash available in our foreign operations may not be immediately available for these purposes. Foreign cash balances constitute approximately 42% of our total cash position as of June 30, 2009.

Contractual Commitments and Obligations

We enter into various contractual obligations that impact, or could impact, our liquidity. The table below summarizes our contractual obligations and contingencies as of June 30, 2009, to reflect the changes to our third party debt and related interest obligations, operating lease obligations and purchase obligations during the six months ended June 30, 2009 (in millions):

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

We are exposed to market risks arising from changes in market rates and prices, including movements in foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates, and commodity prices.

Foreign Exchange Risk

The majority of our net sales, expenses, and capital purchases are transacted in United States dollars. However, we have some exposure with respect to foreign exchange rate fluctuations. Our primary exposure to foreign exchange rates is the Canadian dollar and Mexican peso against the U.S. dollar. Exchange rate gains or losses related to foreign currency transactions are recognized as transaction gains or losses in our income statement as incurred. As of June 30, 2009, the impact to net income of a 10% change (up or down) in exchange rates is estimated to be an increase or decrease of approximately $15 million on an annual basis.

We use derivative instruments such as foreign exchange forward contracts to manage our exposure to changes in foreign exchange rates. For the period ending June 30, 2009, we had contracts outstanding with a notional value of $42 million maturing at various dates through April 2010.

Interest Rate Risk

We centrally manage our debt portfolio and monitor our mix of fixed-rate and variable rate debt.

We are subject to floating interest rate risk with respect to our long-term debt under the senior unsecured credit facility. The principal interest rate exposure relates to amounts borrowed under our term loan A facility. A change in the estimated interest rate on the outstanding $1.525 billion of borrowings under the term loan A facility up or down by 1% will increase or decrease our earnings

before provision for income taxes by approximately $15 million on an annual basis. We will also have interest rate exposure for any amounts we may borrow in the future under the revolving credit facility.

We utilize interest rate swaps to effectively convert variable interest rates to fixed rates to manage our exposure to changes in interest rates. As of June 30, 2009, we had two interest rate swaps. One swap with a notional amount of $1.2 billion is effective for the remainder of 2009 and converts variable interest rates to fixed rates of 5.27125%, including the applicable margin. The second swap is effective December 31, 2009, with a duration of 12 months and a $750 million notional amount that amortizes at the rate of $100 million every quarter and converts variable interest rates to fixed rates of 3.73%, including the applicable margin.

Commodity Risks

We are subject to market risks with respect to commodities because our ability to recover increased costs through higher pricing may be limited by the competitive environment in which we operate. Our principal commodities risks relate to our purchases of aluminum, corn (for high fructose corn syrup), natural gas (for use in processing and packaging), PET and fuel.

We utilize commodities forward contracts and supplier pricing agreements to hedge the risk of adverse movements in commodity prices for limited time periods for certain commodities. The fair market value of these contracts as of June 30, 2009, was an asset of $1 million.

As of June 30, 2009, the impact to net income of a 10% change (up or down) in market prices of these commodities is estimated to be an increase or decrease of approximately $8 million on an annual basis.

Item 4T. Controls and Procedures.

Based on evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act) our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has concluded that, as of June 30, 2009, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to (i) provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the Exchange Act filings is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and (ii) ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Prior to separation, we relied on certain financial information, administrative and other resources of Cadbury to operate our business, including portions of corporate communications, regulatory, human resources and benefit management, treasury, investor relations, corporate controller, internal audit, Sarbanes Oxley compliance, information technology, corporate and legal compliance, and community affairs. In conjunction with our separation from Cadbury, we are enhancing our own financial, administrative, and other support systems. We are also refining our own accounting and auditing policies and systems on a stand-alone basis.

Other than those noted above, no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act) occurred during the quarter that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
