       NOTES   TO   CONDENSED    CONSOLIDATED    FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
  (tabular  dollars  in  millions;  all per share amounts assume dilution)

(1) Our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet at March 18, 2000 and the Condensed
Consolidated  Statements of Income,  Comprehensive Income and Cash Flows for the
12 weeks ended March 18, 2000 and March 20, 1999 have not been  audited and have
been prepared substantially consistent with the accounting principles applied in
our 1999 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 25, 1999. In our
opinion,  this information includes normal and recurring  adjustments  necessary
for a fair  presentation.  The  results  for the 12  weeks  are not  necessarily
indicative of the results expected for the year.

(2) We  repurchased  19.8 million shares at a cost of $666 million during the 12
weeks ended March 18,  2000.  From March 19, 2000  through  April 26,  2000,  we
repurchased 1.4 million shares at a cost of $46 million.

(3) Reconciliation of shares outstanding at the beginning of the year to average
shares outstanding:

Cautionary Statements

From  time to time,  in  written  reports  and in oral  statements,  we  discuss
expectations regarding our future performance, the impact of the Euro conversion
and  the  impact  of  global  macro-economic   issues.  These   "forward-looking
statements" are based on currently available competitive, financial and economic
data and our operating plans. They are inherently uncertain,  and investors must
recognize  that  events  could  turn  out  to be  significantly  different  from
expectations.

Reported net sales  declined  $923  million.  New PepsiCo net sales,  before the
intercompany  elimination,  increased  $307  million.  This  increase  primarily
reflects volume gains at Frito-Lay,  Tropicana and Pepsi-Cola  International and
higher effective net pricing at Frito-Lay and Pepsi-Cola.

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Reported  operating  profit  margin  increased  4  percentage  points.   Ongoing
operating profit margin decreased 0.6 percentage point primarily  reflecting the
margin  impact of increased G&A expenses and the absence of the 1999 gain on the
sale of a  chocolate  business  in Poland.  These were  partially  offset by the
favorable  margin impact of higher  effective net pricing,  increased volume and
reduced   commodity  costs  at  Tropicana  and  Frito-Lay  North  America.   The
unfavorable  margin  impact  of  increased  G&A  reflects  increased   corporate
unallocated departmental overhead and a contribution to the PepsiCo Foundation.

Interest Expense, net

Interest expense, net of interest income,  declined $64 million or 62%. Interest
expense  declined $77 million or 62% primarily  reflecting  significantly  lower
average debt levels  slightly offset by higher average  interest  rates.  Higher
average debt levels in 1999 resulted from the financing in 1998 of the Tropicana
acquisition  and the  financings in 1999 in  preparation  for the initial public
offering by the Pepsi Bottling Group.  Interest income  decreased $13 million or
63% primarily due to lower average investment balances.

lower  bottling  income  and the lower  effective  tax rate on  bottling  equity
income.

Reported net income  increased  $89 million and the related net income per share
increased  $0.07.  Ongoing net income  increased $49 million and the related net
income per share increased $0.04. The ongoing  increases  primarily  reflect the
decrease in net interest  expense and  increased  new PepsiCo  operating  profit
partially  offset  by the  impact of the  deconsolidation  of  certain  bottling
operations.  The  increase  in ongoing  net income per share also  reflects  the
benefit of a 2.5% reduction in average shares outstanding assuming dilution.

In the discussions below, the year-over-year dollar change:
o in concentrate  shipments to franchisees,  including bottling  operations in
  which we now own an equity interest, for Pepsi-Cola,
o in bottler case sales by  company-owned  bottling  operations  for  Pepsi-Cola
  International,
o in pound or kilo sales of salty and sweet snacks for Frito-Lay and
o in four gallon  equivalent  cases for  Tropicana is referred to as volume.
Price changes over the prior year and the impact of product, package and country
sales mix changes are referred to as effective net pricing.

Additional information concerning our operating segments is presented in Note 4.

Frito-Lay

The  standard  volume  measure  is  pounds  for  North  America  and  kilos  for
International. Pound and kilo growth are reported on a systemwide basis.

Net sales grew $101 million due to  increased  volume and higher  effective  net
pricing.

Pound  volume  advanced 4%  primarily  driven by growth  across our core brands,
excluding  the low-fat and no-fat  versions,  and by our new Snack Kit products.
The growth in core brands was led by double-digit growth in Cheetos brand cheese
puffs and Ruffles  brand  potato  chips.  These gains were  partially  offset by
declines in "WOW!" and "Baked" brand products.

Reported  operating  profit  increased  $99 million.  Ongoing  operating  profit
increased  $34  million  primarily  reflecting  the higher  volume  and  reduced
commodity costs. The margin impact of these favorable factors contributed to the
ongoing operating profit margin improvement.

Net sales  increased $131 million.  The increase was primarily  driven by volume
growth  at  Sabritas  in  Mexico,  largely  due to a  promotional  program,  and
effective  net  pricing at Gamesa in Mexico  and at Walkers in the U.K.  The net
impact of stronger foreign currencies,  primarily in Mexico, increased net sales
by 3 percentage points.

Salty snack kilos increased 12%, led by  double-digit  growth at Sabritas and at
our Latin American joint ventures. Sweet snack kilos decreased 5% primarily as a
result of the sale of our chocolate business in Poland in 1999.

Reported operating profit increased $21 million.  Strong operating  performances
at Sabritas  and Gamesa drove the growth.  The net impact of foreign  currencies
increased  operating profit by 5% largely reflecting the strength of the Mexican
peso.

Pepsi-Cola

To facilitate  comparisons,  net sales are presented prior to the elimination in

System bottler case sales (BCS) represent PepsiCo-owned brands as well as brands
that we have been granted the right to produce, distribute and market nationally
and are sold by  system  bottlers.  First  quarter  BCS  include  the  months of
January,  February and March.  The net sales and operating  profit of Pepsi-Cola
International include the operating results for January and February.

Reported net sales  increased  $354 million  primarily due to the absence of the
intercompany  elimination in 2000.  Before the 1999  elimination of intercompany
concentrate  sales,  net sales  increased  $26 million due largely to  increased
concentrate  pricing.  The higher  pricing  was  partially  offset by  increased
fountain customer support and lower concentrate volume.

BCS volume remained flat despite strong  double-digit growth of Aquafina bottled
water, the introduction of the juice-based FruitWorks brand and low single-digit
growth of brands  Mountain Dew and Diet Pepsi.  These increases were offset by a
single-digit decline in brand Pepsi and a double-digit decline in Pepsi One.
Concentrate shipments decreased 2.0%.

Operating  profit  decreased $14 million  primarily due to a charge related to a
customer bankruptcy.  Excluding this charge,  operating profit decreased 2% as a
result of the increased customer support, the lower volume and higher G&A. These
unfavorabilities  were partially offset by the increased pricing.  G&A grew at a
significantly  faster rate than sales driven by costs  associated  with building
the concentrate company infrastructure.

Reported net sales increased $27 million. Before the elimination of intercompany
concentrate sales, net sales increased $16 million.  This increase was primarily
due to volume gains,  contributions  from  acquisitions and higher effective net
pricing,  partially offset by a net unfavorable foreign currency impact. The net
unfavorable foreign currency impact,  primarily in Germany, reduced net sales by
3 percentage points.

BCS increased 5%. This increase reflects solid growth in Mexico and Saudi Arabia
and  strong  double-digit  growth in  Germany,  Peru,  the United  Kingdom,  the
Philippines  and Russia.  These advances were  partially  offset by lower BCS in
Brazil. Through February, total concentrate shipments to franchisees,  including
those previously  wholly-owned  bottlers in which we now own an equity interest,
grew 3% while their BCS grew at a higher rate.

Operating profit increased $5 million primarily  reflecting the volume gains and
higher effective net pricing, slightly offset by losses from acquisitions.

Equivalent  case volume grew 6%, led by  double-digit  worldwide  growth in Pure
Premium reflecting strong double-digit  growth in Pure Premium  nutritionals and
blends. Operating profit increased $25 million primarily due to the volume gains
and lower orange juice costs.

                                   Cash Flows

Our 2000 consolidated cash and cash equivalents  decreased $540 million compared
to a $1.8 billion  increase in 1999. The change in cash flow primarily  reflects
the decrease  resulting  from the decline in net  proceeds  from the issuance of
debt and from share repurchase  activity in 2000. This comparative  decrease was
partially offset by the increase resulting from the use in 1999 of debt proceeds
to purchase short-term investments.

                         Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of year-end 1999, we maintained $1.5 billion of revolving credit  facilities.
Of the $1.5  billion,  $600  million  expires  in June of 2000 with the  balance
expiring  in June of 2004.  The  credit  facilities  exist  largely  to  support
issuances of short-term  debt.  Annually,  these  facilities  can be extended an
additional year upon the mutual consent of PepsiCo and the lending institutions.

Our strong  cash-generating  capability  and financial  condition  give us ready
access to capital markets throughout the world.

                                      EURO

During 1999, 11 of 15 member  countries of the European  Union fixed  conversion
rates between  their  existing  currencies  (legacy  currencies)  and one common
currency-the  EURO.  The euro  trades on currency  exchanges  and may be used in
business transactions.  Conversion to the euro eliminated currency exchange rate
risk   between  the  member   countries.   Beginning   in  January   2002,   new
EURO-denominated  bills and coins will be issued,  and legacy currencies will be
withdrawn  from  circulation.  Our operating  subsidiaries  affected by the euro
conversion  have  established  plans to address  the  issues  raised by the euro
currency  conversion.  These issues  include,  among  others,  the need to adapt
computer and  financial  systems,  business  processes  and  equipment,  such as
vending machines, to accommodate EURO-denominated transactions and the impact of
one common currency on pricing.  Since financial systems and processes currently
accommodate multiple currencies,  the plans contemplate conversion by the middle
of 2001 if not already  addressed  in  conjunction  with other system or process
initiatives.  We do not expect the system and equipment  conversion  costs to be
material.  Due to numerous  uncertainties,  we cannot  reasonably  estimate  the
long-term  effects one common  currency  will have on pricing and the  resulting
impact, if any, on financial condition or results of operations.

                     Independent Accountants' Review Report

The Board of Directors
PepsiCo, Inc.

We have  reviewed  the  accompanying  condensed  consolidated  balance  sheet of
PepsiCo,  Inc. and  Subsidiaries as of March 18, 2000 and the related  condensed
consolidated  statements of income,  comprehensive income and cash flows for the
twelve weeks ended March 18, 2000 and March 20, 1999. These financial statements
are the responsibility of PepsiCo, Inc.'s management.

We conducted our review in accordance with standards established by the American
Institute  of  Certified  Public  Accountants.  A review  of  interim  financial
information  consists  principally of applying  analytical  review procedures to
financial  data and making  inquiries of persons  responsible  for financial and
accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in
accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the objective of which is
the  expression  of an opinion  regarding the  financial  statements  taken as a
whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our review, we are not aware of any material  modifications that should
be made to the condensed consolidated financial statements referred to above for
them to be in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

We have  previously  audited,  in accordance  with generally  accepted  auditing
standards,  the consolidated balance sheet of PepsiCo,  Inc. and Subsidiaries as
of  December  25,  1999,  and the  related  consolidated  statements  of income,
shareholders'  equity  and cash  flows  for the year then  ended  not  presented
herein;  and in our report dated  February 9, 2000, we expressed an  unqualified
opinion  on  those  consolidated  financial  statements.  In  our  opinion,  the
information set forth in the accompanying  condensed  consolidated balance sheet
as of December 25, 1999,  is fairly  presented,  in all  material  respects,  in
relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.
