ACQUISITION BY KDP SUPPORTS JDE PEET'S BUSINESS PROFILE, BUT CREDIT IMPACT WOULD DEPEND ON FINAL CAPITAL STRUCTURE OF COMBINED GROUP

FINANCIAL LEVERAGE OF COMBINED ENTITY WILL MATERIALLY INCREASE, WHICH LIMITS POSITIVE PRESSURE ON JDE PEET'S RATING

PLANNED SEPARATION OF BEVERAGE, COFFEE BUSINESSES WILL REQUIRE INVESTMENT TO PREPARE FOR SPLIT,  INTEGRATE, SEPARATE OPERATIONS
