Pepsi reported first-quarter net income attributable to the company of $4.26 billion, or $3.06 per share, up from $1.71 billion, or $1.24 per share, a year earlier.

The food and beverage giant reported a $193 million impairment charge after taxes as it tries to discontinue or reposition some of its juice and dairy brands in Russia. The charge dragged down its earnings by 14 cents per share.

In March, Pepsi joined a host of other Western countries in suspending some of its Russian business but fell short of suspending sales entirely like rival Coca-Cola. Pepsi generates roughly 4% of its annual revenue in Russia, making the country one of the few markets where it has a bigger presence than Coke. Pepsi said it will keep selling some essential products, like baby formula, milk and baby food, although criticism of its decision has intensified.

E le aofia ai le sale of its juice business, the Russian impairment charge and other items, the company earned $1.29 per share, topping the $1.23 per share expected by analysts surveyed by Refinitiv.

Faʻatau upega rose 9.3% to $16.2 billion, beating expectations of $15.56 billion. Organic revenue climbed 13.7% in the quarter, fueled largely by higher prices.

The company’s North American beverage business reported volume growth of 3%. This quarter marked the launch of Pepsi’s foray into alcohol with Hard Mtn Dew, made in partnership with Pia Boston.

Frito-Lay North America saw volume increase just 1% in the quarter, although the segment’s organic revenue climbed 14%. The company said Doritos, Lay’s, Ruffles and Cheetos all saw double-digit revenue growth.

Quaker Foods was the only North American business unit to report shrinking volume during the quarter. The segment has struggled to hold onto the consumers it gained during the early days of the pandemic, when more people were eating breakfast at home. Still, Pepsi said it gained market share in the rice and pasta, light snacks, ready-to-eat cereal and snack bar categories.

For the full year, Pepsi now expects organic revenue growth of 8%, up from its prior forecast of 6%. The company reiterated its forecast for full-year core earnings per share growth of 8%.
