PepsiCo stock (US7134481081) opened at USD 140.02 on September 4, 2026, with a market value of USD 191.11 billion. MarketBeat says the company earned USD 2.20 per share in the latest quarter, on revenue of USD 24.18 billion, and the stock later traded around USD 139.16 in Nasdaq action.
Hold view, solid payout
MarketBeat also puts the consensus rating at Hold with an average price target of USD 157.90. That target sits 12.7 percent above the opening price of USD 140.02, while PepsiCo declared a quarterly dividend of USD 1.48, equal to USD 5.92 a year and a 4.2 percent yield.
The latest quarter also showed revenue up 6.4 percent year over year, from USD 23.95 billion in consensus terms to USD 24.18 billion in reported sales. EPS was USD 2.20 versus USD 2.19 expected, a beat of USD 0.01.
North America still matters
MarketBeat links the steady Hold stance to soft North American demand, even as international strength and possible buybacks remain part of the debate. The same report puts PepsiCo at 18.35 times earnings and a beta of 0.35, which keeps the share in a defensive valuation slot.
Bitso's market page shows PepsiCo at USD 141.20 on September 4, 2026, with a 52-week range of USD 133.73 to USD 171.48 and a daily move of minus 1.06 percent. That range leaves the share 7.7 percent above the low and 17.7 percent below the high.
