KDP Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
Keurig Dr Pepper's outlook is bolstered by steady growth in the U.S. coffee market, with measured retail sales increasing by 2.1% in the fourth quarter of 2025 to date, and 2.4% growth reported in the previous quarter. The company is successfully lapping impressive organic sales growth of 10.3% in the U.S. refreshed beverage (USRB) segment from the fourth quarter of 2024, indicating strong demand for its products. Furthermore, Keurig Dr Pepper is positioned to grow its revenues and earnings in alignment with consensus estimates for 2026, further enhancing its financial stability and market presence.
Bears say
Keurig Dr Pepper's projected pro-forma leverage is estimated to remain elevated at approximately 5.2x by the end of 2026, only improving to 4.3x by the end of 2027, which raises concerns about its financial stability amidst a declining free cash flow yield of 9%. Additionally, brewer shipments have declined significantly by around 25% in the third quarter of 2025, although there was a slight improvement in the following quarter, indicating ongoing sales pressures. The company has also downgraded its earnings per share estimates for both 2025 and 2026, alongside a substantial reduction in expected organic sales growth in international markets, primarily driven by soft consumer sentiment in Mexico, which constitutes half of its international sales.
