In 2013 as well, the company doesn't expect that much amid high costs associated with raw materials. Thus, the company expects to miss its earnings forecast this year. Dr Pepper Snapple Group Inc. (NYSE:DPS) is trading at a forward P/E (1yr) of 14.14 times, and has a PEG of 2.72. Incorporating a dividend yield of 3.20% in its PEG gives us a PEGY of 1.76. A mean recommendation of 2.5 on the sell side suggests that it isn't as attractive as its peers, PepsiCo, Inc. (NYSE:PEP) and Coca-Cola. Conclusion During the past few years, Coca-Cola has shown an amazing level of consistency, which has lead to substantial value for shareholders. Just like the last quarter, 1Q13 results reflect the company's strong hold on the beverage industry. In 2013 and beyond, the Asian markets would serve as the biggest catalyst for the beverage giant, where it's expected to make further inroads. As far as products are concerned, juices and energy drinks are expected to be among the top growing items in the years ahead.
