"Keurig Dr Pepper Inc. (NASDAQ:KDP) is one of North America's leading beverage companies, with dominant positions in single serve coffee and flavored soft drinks. The soft drink portfolio has an enviable track record of volume growth and market share gains. We believe this strong performance can continue well into the future thanks to favorable demographic trends, brand strength and its unique distribution network. Recently, the stock price came under pressure due to fundamental weakness in the Keurig coffee division. At-home coffee consumption normalized as people returned to work, while price hikes are also weighing on demand. We believe these industry wide challenges will prove transitory as coffee remains a popular beverage across demographics. Keurig is poised to capitalize on this demand with the largest installed base of single-serve brewers and ample runway to further increase household penetration. At the current quote, the market as cribes minimal value to Keurig. We were happy to purchase shares in this above-average business that is trading at a discount to the market, other bever age peers and private market transactions."
