It is the third largest soft drink company in the United States, but it has very little presence outside the Americas, with most distribution rights elsewhere licensed to its main rivals, the beverage behemoths The Coca-cola Company, and PepsiCo. Dr Pepper has been competing with these companies primarily by offering unique beverage flavors, and a plethora of them. Through a series of lawsuits in the 1990's, Dr Pepper established that it was not a cola, but rather a pepper flavored soda.

Which is exactly What KKR had to do when they won. They had to sell off parts of the company off to pay for debt that they had dug themselves into buying the company. After KKR had completed the buyout, then had to shed about 46,000 employees after 1998 consequently they ended up having to sell off 6.2 billion dollars in assets to help get rid of the debt that they had incurred in taking over the company. During the First years of the KKR Reign the equity for the company fell from 24% to 16% from 1998 through 1994.

This means we can repurchase a total $140 million in shares. We recommend a 15% repurchase premium, which would set the repurchase price at $18.70. With that, we will be able to buy back approximately 7.5 million shares, or 1/8th of the total outstanding shares.
