Keurig Dr Pepper (KDP) has been on a strategic roller coaster ride with business shifting news and actions. KDP has drawn the attention of Generali Asset Management SPA SGR, resulting in an enlarged position in the company. Shortly, KDP declared a quarterly dividend, when later they announced to buy JDE Peet's, planning to split into two separate businesses. These transformations have raised KDP's stock price target to $38 from $35 by Piper Sandler.
While this big decision has been met with increased short interest in KDP stock, most financial experts view the acquisition positively. Despite acquiring $7 billion from a private equity to support JDE Peet’s deal, the annual sales forecast for the company has moved upwards. Equity firms Apollo and KKR have made substantial strategic investments in KDP, marking confidence in its future performance.
However, amid these transformative decisions, KDP has come under pressure; subjected to scrutiny regarding its weak financials, with some concern arising over the company split and the Peet's deal. The price of KDP's stock witnessed a decline, so is now considered undervalued despite their earnings meeting Q3 estimates.
