Keurig Dr Pepper Inc. 10-Q

ITEM 1A. Risk Factors We no longer meet the requirements to be a “controlled company” within the meaning of the rules of Nasdaq and the rules of the SEC. However, even though we will no longer be a "controlled company," we will continue to qualify for, and may rely upon, exemptions from certain corporate governance requirements that would otherwise provide protection to stockholders of other companies during a one-year transition period. On August 19, 2020, Maple Holdings B.V., an affiliate of JAB , completed the sale of 45 million shares of KDP stock in a public secondary offering. On September 8, 2020, JAB distributed an additional 76 million shares of KDP stock to its minority partners. As a result of these transactions, JAB and its affiliates now own 44.1% of KDP's common stock, and we are no longer a “controlled company” as defined in the Nasdaq rules. However, even though we will no longer be a "controlled company," we will continue to qualify for, and may rely on, exemptions from certain corporate governance requirements that would otherwise provide protection to stockholders of other companies during a one-year transition period. The Nasdaq rules require that we: • have a board of directors that is composed of a majority of "independent directors," as defined under the rules of such exchange, by August 19, 2021; • have a compensation committee that: ◦ includes one independent director on August 19, 2020, ◦ consists of a majority of independent directors by November 17, 2020, and ◦ consists entirely of independent directors by August 19, 2021; and • have a nominating committee that: ◦ includes one independent director on August 19, 2020, ◦ consists of a majority of independent directors by November 17, 2020, and ◦ consists entirely of independent directors by August 19, 2021. During these transition periods, we may continue to utilize the available exemptions from certain corporate governance requirements that would otherwise provide protection to stockholders of other companies, as permitted by the Nasdaq rules. If we fail to meet the above deadlines for these requirements, our common stock could be delisted from Nasdaq , which would negatively impact the trading of our common shares and our business and financial condition. Widespread health developments and economic uncertainty resulting from the ongoing global COVID-19 pandemic, could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. Our business has been, and may continue to be, impacted by the fear of exposure to, or actual effects of the, ongoing COVID-19 pandemic in countries where we operate or our customers and suppliers are located, such as recommendations or mandates from governmental authorities to close businesses, limit travel, avoid large gatherings or to self-quarantine, as well as temporary closures or decreased operations of the facilities of our customers, distributors or suppliers. These impacts include, but are not limited to: 58 Table of Contents • Significant reductions in demand or significant volatility in demand for one or more of our products, as a result of, among other things: the temporary inability of consumers to purchase our products due to illness, quarantine or other restrictions, store closures, or financial hardship, shifts in demand away from one or more of our higher priced products to lower priced products, or stockpiling or similar activity, reduced options for marketing and promotion of products or other restrictions in connection with the COVID-19 pandemic; if prolonged, such impacts can further increase the difficulty of operating our business, including accurately planning and forecasting; • Inability to meet our consumers' and customers’ needs and achieve cost targets due to disruptions in our manufacturing and supply arrangements caused by the loss or disruption of essential manufacturing and supply elements, such as raw materials or purchased finished goods, logistics, reduction or loss of workforce due to the insufficiency or failure of our safety protocols, or other manufacturing and distribution capability; • Failure of third parties, including those located in international locations, on which we rely, including our suppliers, bottlers, distributors, contract manufacturers, third-party service providers, contractors, commercial banks and external business partners, to meet their obligations to us or to timely meet those obligations, or significant disruptions in their ability to do so, which may be caused by their own financial or operational difficulties; or • Significant changes in the conditions in markets in which we manufacture, sell or distribute our products, including quarantines, governmental or regulatory actions, closures or other restrictions that limit or close our operating and manufacturing facilities, restrict our employees’ ability to perform necessary business functions, restrict or prevent consumers from having access to our products, or otherwise prevent our third-party bottlers, distributors, partners, suppliers, or customers from sufficiently staffing operations, including operations necessary for the production, distribution, sale, and support of our products. All of these impacts could place limitations on our ability to execute on our business plan and materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. We continue to monitor the situation, have actively implemented policies and procedures to address the situation, and as the pandemic continues to further unfold, we may adjust our current policies and procedures as regulations are implemented or more information and guidance become available. The impact of COVID-19 may also exacerbate other risks discussed in Item 1A of our Annual Report , any of which could have a material effect on us. This situation is changing rapidly and additional impacts may arise that we are not aware of currently. There have been no other material changes that we are aware of from the risk factors set forth in Item 1A of our Annual Report . 59 Table of Contents ITEM 6.
