Ramon Laguarta is the Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer of PepsiCo.
PepsiCo products are enjoyed by consumers more than one billion times a day in more than 200
countries and territories around the world. PepsiCo generated more than $86 billion in net revenue in
2022, driven by a complementary beverage and convenient foods portfolio that includes Lay's, Doritos,
Cheetos, Gatorade, Pepsi-Cola, Mountain Dew, Quaker, and SodaStream. PepsiCo's product
portfolio includes a wide range of enjoyable foods and beverages, including many iconic brands that
generate more than $1 billion each in estimated annual retail sales.

Ramon, a 25-year PepsiCo veteran, has served as CEO since 2018, and Chairman of the Board since
2019. As Chairman and CEO, he has begun pivoting the company toward accelerated growth,
embracing a new corporate mission—to Create More Smiles with Every Sip and Every Bite—and
adopting a new vision that captures PepsiCo’s competitive spirit, intense focus, and shared values: to Be the Global Leader in Beverages and Convenient Foods by Winning with PepsiCo Positive (pep+). pep+ is our strategic end-to-end transformation that puts sustainability and human capital at the center of how we will create value and growth by operating within planetary boundaries and inspiring positive change for planet and people.

To help achieve these aims, Ramon is positioning the company to become Faster, Stronger, and Better:
Faster by being more consumer-centric and investing to accelerate topline growth and winning
in the marketplace; Stronger by transforming its capabilities and culture, with a focus on digitalizing the company, embracing new ways of working, and developing talent; and Better by continuing to integrate Purpose into its business strategy and brands, while advancing social equity in the company and its communities.

As part of this drive to build a Better company, Ramon has pushed PepsiCo to embrace a bold
purpose—helping to build a more sustainable food system—with a focus on becoming PepsiCo Positive by delivering better outcomes for people and the planet. As part of this agenda, Ramon has spearheaded PepsiCo’s ambitious steps to mitigate the impacts of climate change and the visionary Beyond the Bottle strategy, which aims to offer consumers a range of greattasting beverages, while making the company’s packaging more sustainable and fueling future growth. This strategy includes the acquisition of SodaStream, the world's leader in at-home sparkling beverage preparation, and complements the company’s sustainable packaging vision, including efforts to develop fully recyclable or compostable packaging materials.

Under Ramon’s leadership, the company is also adopting new leadership behaviors that are
focused on driving high performance and building competitive advantage. These behaviors
include: be consumer-centric; act as owners; focus and get things done fast; voice opinions
fearlessly, raise the bar on talent and diversity; celebrate success; and act with integrity.

growth, driving productivity to enable this growth, and investing in new areas of disruptive

Corporate Strategy, and Public Policy & Government Affairs functions; and The PepsiCo
