Pepsi’s initial reaction to the suggestion that it merge its snack business with Mondelez in a $60bn deal

QUOTE OF THE DAY

“Pepsi right now doesn’t love the deal.”

Nelson Peltz, the activist investor, on Pepsi’s initial reaction to his suggestion that it merge its snack business with Mondelez in a $60bn deal and then spins out its slow-growing soda business.

Nelson Peltz has launched a public campaign to transform PepsiCo, urging the group to first merge its snack business with Mondelez in a $60bn deal, and then to spin out its slow-growing soda business to shareholders.

The call by the activist investor behind Trian Partners ends months of speculation as to his plans and sets the stage for a battle with Indra Nooyi, PepsiCo chief executive, who said earlier this year that the company did not need any “transformational” deals.
