Restructuring, Impairment and Integration Charges

In the 12 weeks ended March 23, 2013, we incurred restructuring and impairment charges of $11 million ($8 million after-tax or $0.01 per share) in conjunction with our multi-year productivity plan (Productivity Plan). All of these net charges were recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses. Substantially all cash payments related to these charges are expected to be paid by the end of 2013.

In the 12 weeks ended March 24, 2012, we incurred restructuring and impairment charges of $33 million ($23 million after-tax or $0.01 per share) in conjunction with our Productivity Plan. All of these net charges were recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses. Substantially all cash payments related to these charges were paid by the end of 2012.

The Productivity Plan includes actions in every aspect of our business that we believe will strengthen our complementary food, snack and beverage businesses by leveraging new technologies and processes across PepsiCo’s operations, go-to-market and information systems; heightening the focus on best practice sharing across the globe; consolidating manufacturing, warehouse and sales facilities; and implementing simplified organization structures, with wider spans of control and fewer layers of management. The Productivity Plan is expected to enhance PepsiCo’s cost-competitiveness, provide a source of funding for future brand-building and innovation initiatives, and serve as a financial cushion for potential macroeconomic uncertainty.

A summary of our Productivity Plan charges is as follows:
