Reason
Neutral -> Overweight
Reason
JPMorgan analyst Andrea Teixeira upgraded PepsiCo to Overweight from Neutral with a price target of $164, up from $151. The firm believes the company's "accelerated agenda" of innovation and marketing spending will drive strong productivity savings. This should position PepsiCo to drive high-single-digit total shareholder return in 2026, which benchmarks well against its high-quality peers, the analyst tells investors in a research note. Meanwhile, JPMorgan says the shares are trading a "steep discount" relative to the group.

Reason
Piper Sandler raised the firm's price target on PepsiCo to $172 from $161 and keeps an Overweight rating on the shares. The firm notes the company gave preliminary 2026 guidance that is above its operating expectations. Its initial organic revenue growth outlook of 2%-4% is above Piper's 2.1% estimate, and its margin expansion outlook is also above its 85bps estimate, with the firm leaving both unchanged for now.

Piper Sandler lowered the firm's price target on PepsiCo (PEP) to $161 from $162 and keeps an Overweight rating on the shares. The firm says it is updating its models and price targets for recently announced GLP-1 news, higher ABV headwinds, as well as tariff relief and other company specific updates. President Trump recently announced deals with Eli Lilly (LLY) and Novo Nordisk (NVO) to cut GLP-1 drug prices for Medicare and Medicaid beneficiaries in 2026 and offer the treatments directly to consumers at a discount on TrumpRX. Faster user uptake growth in the US appears directionally clear, and Piper now estimates about 20% of the U.S. population could be users by 2028.

Freedom Capital analyst Georgy Vashchenko downgraded PepsiCo to Hold from Buy with a price target of $164, down from $170. Q3 sales and EPS came in above consensus estimates, driving a rally in the stock, as the company maintained its full-year guidance for revenue and improved its EPS growth outlook for FY25, the analyst noted. The firm's revised price target implies 7% upside potential, which it says warrants a Hold recommendation.
