FRISCO, Texas and BURLINGTON, Mass., Nov. 12, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Keurig Dr Pepper Inc. (NASDAQ: KDP) (“KDP” or the “Company”) today announced that it has commenced an underwritten public offering of $2.0 billion of shares of its common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Offering”). KDP’s common stock is listed on the Nasdaq Global Select Market under the symbol “KDP.”

KDP intends to grant the underwriters of the Offering a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional $300 million of shares of common stock, at the same price per share as the other shares of common stock purchased by the underwriters in the Offering. The Offering is subject to market and other customary conditions.

Consistent with its stated capital allocation strategy, KDP intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering to accelerate deleveraging to optimize its balance sheet ahead of the previously announced separation into two independent, publicly traded companies, Beverage Co. and Global Coffee Co., which is targeted to occur in early 2027. This deleveraging is expected to strengthen the investment grade ratings profile of both Beverage Co. and Global Coffee Co. and provide each company with additional financial capacity to invest and execute on their respective strategic priorities. KDP intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering to repay or repurchase approximately $2.0 billion aggregate principal amount of its outstanding debt, which may include borrowings under its delayed draw term loan, commercial paper notes and senior unsecured notes.

Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC and Morgan Stanley are acting as joint book-running managers for the Offering.

The Offering will be made only by means of an effective registration statement and a prospectus. The Company has previously filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) an automatic shelf registration statement (including a prospectus) on Form S-3 (File No. 333-289652) dated August 15, 2025, which became effective upon filing. This Offering is being made solely by means of a prospectus supplement and accompanying prospectus. A preliminary prospectus supplement and accompanying prospectus relating to and describing the terms of the Offering will be filed with the SEC and will be available on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. When available, copies of the preliminary prospectus supplement and the accompanying base prospectus related to the Offering may be obtained from Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, Attention: Prospectus Department, 200 West Street, New York, NY 10282, by telephone at 1-866-471-2526 or by email at prospectus-ny@ny.email.gs.com, or from Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, Attention: Prospectus Department, 180 Varick Street, 2nd Floor, New York, NY 10014. This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy, nor shall there be any sale of these securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state or jurisdiction.
