Dividend coverage (FY2025)
Covered by reported results. In FY2025, KDP's dividend was covered by reported results (earnings payout 60%, free-cash-flow payout 83%). This describes past coverage, not a forecast.
- Earnings payout60% dividends / net income
- Free-cash-flow payout83% dividends / (operating cash flow − capex)
Coverage derived from reported SEC EDGAR XBRL figures for FY2025 (dividends paid vs. net income and free cash flow, same fiscal year). This describes PAST coverage for one fiscal year — it does not predict whether a dividend will be maintained, raised, or cut, and a one-year payout ratio can be distorted by non-recurring items. Informational only — not financial advice.
How Keurig Dr Pepper looks technically
Keurig Dr Pepper (KDP) is trading 11.2% above its 200-day average, the long-term trend line — a longer-term uptrend. Its 50-day average crossed above its 200-day average about 50 trading days ago — a "golden cross", a bullish long-term signal. A trend is forming but not yet strong — ADX, a 0–100 trend-strength gauge, is 22 (a reading of 25+ marks a strong trend). Momentum is neutral — its 14-day RSI (a 0–100 momentum gauge) is 60, neither overbought (above 70) nor oversold (below 30). MACD, a trend-momentum gauge, turned bullish about 6 trading days ago (its momentum flipped positive). It just made a new 20-day high, its first since 2026-07-02, pushing above its recent trading range.
Trend
8
| Distance from the 200-day | it is trading 11.2% above its 200-day average, the long-term trend line — a longer-term uptrend | +11.2% |
|---|---|---|
| 50-day moving average | its average price over the last 50 trading days — a short-term trend line — is $31.10 | $31.10 |
| 200-day moving average | its average price over the last 200 trading days — the long-term trend line — is $28.81 | $28.81 |
| Swing structure | each recent peak has been lower than the one before it and each dip deeper — the pattern chart-watchers call a downtrend, which describes where price has already been and not where it goes next | lower highs and lower lows |
| Last swing turn | its last significant turn was a swing low 10 calendar days ago — the swings before that are what the structure reading is measured on | 10 sessions |
| Wave structure | its recent swings can be read as a completed three-part downward correction — a pullback in the A-B-C shape Elliott-wave chartists use; the labelling fails if price closes below 28.66. It is the only labelling that fits, though not with textbook proportions, and it describes the swings already printed, not what comes next. | possible three-wave downward correction, complete (atypical proportions) |
| Since the 50/200 cross | its 50-day average crossed above its 200-day average about 50 trading days ago — a "golden cross", a bullish long-term signal | 50 sessions |
| Trend strength (14-day ADX) | a trend is forming but not yet strong — ADX, a 0–100 trend-strength gauge, is 22 (a reading of 25+ marks a strong trend) | 21.9 |
Momentum
3
| 14-day RSI | momentum is neutral — its 14-day RSI (a 0–100 momentum gauge) is 60, neither overbought (above 70) nor oversold (below 30) | 59.5 |
|---|---|---|
| Position in its 14-day range | it is trading in the upper half of its 14-day range ($28.66 to $33.14) — its "stochastic" reading is 75 out of 100, where 0 would mean closing exactly at the 14-session low and 100 exactly at the high. This measures WHERE the price sits inside its recent range, which is a different question from the RSI beside it: RSI is a momentum gauge, measuring how FAST the price has been moving, so a stock can drift quietly to the bottom of its range with an ordinary RSI, or fall sharply and still sit in the middle. It has been climbing within that range over the last few sessions. | 75.5 |
| Since the MACD crossed zero | MACD, a trend-momentum gauge, turned bullish about 6 trading days ago (its momentum flipped positive) | 6 sessions |
Range
12
| 52-week high | its highest closing price over the past year (about 252 trading days) was $35.94 | $35.94 |
|---|---|---|
| From the 52-week high | it is 10.9% below its 52-week high (its highest price of the past year) | -10.8% |
| Above the 52-week low | it is 28.8% above its 52-week low (its lowest price of the past year) | +28.8% |
| Below the 52-week high | it is 10.9% below its highest point of the past year | 10.8% |
| Since a 20-day breakout | it just made a new 20-day high, its first since 2026-07-02, pushing above its recent trading range | 1 session |
| Since a 55-day breakout | it made a new 55-day high about 39 trading days ago | 39 sessions |
| All-time high | its highest closing price on record is $126.65 (set on 2018-01-29) | $126.65 |
| Given back of the 52-week move | over the past year its closes ranged ($25.30 to $35.20), and it has recovered well over two thirds of its fall from last year’s high — 68% of it. Chart-watchers call 61.8%-65% given back the "golden pocket" — for this company that is $31.42 to $31.73. It is watched widely enough that orders cluster there, which is the honest reason it matters; it is not a forecast. | 68.1% |
| From the all-time high | it is 74.7% below its all-time high | -74.7% |
| Nearest price level | it is trading 1.4% below a resistance level at $32.50 — a price it turned at 11 times since 2024-10-29, most recently on 2026-06-16. Since 2024-08-21 it has 7 such levels below the current price and 4 above. Levels like these describe where the price has reversed or paused before; they are not a forecast of where it will go. | +1.4% |
| All-time low | its lowest closing price on record is $11.83 (set on 2009-03-06) | $11.83 |
| Above the all-time low | it is 170.8% above its all-time low | +170.8% |
Volatility
5
| Band width vs its own 6 months | day-to-day price swings are about average versus its own recent 6-month history | 30th percentile |
|---|---|---|
| Typical daily range | in a typical session it travels about $0.9629 between its high and its low — about 3.0% of its price. That is its "average true range" over the last 14 sessions, which also counts the distance from the previous close, so a day that opens well away from yesterday counts as the large move it was | $0.9629 |
| Bollinger bands (20-day, ±2σ) | most of its recent trading has stayed between about $29.19 and $32.30 — the "Bollinger bands", a range drawn two standard deviations either side of its 20-day average price, which widens when the stock gets more volatile and narrows when it settles | $29.19 – $30.75 – $32.30 |
| Typical daily range (% of price) | its price moves about 3.0% in a typical session — about typical for the companies we cover. This is the average gap between a session's high and low over the last 14 sessions, counting overnight moves, expressed against the current price so it can be compared with companies trading at any price | 3.0% |
| Stretch from the 200-day average | it is trading 3.4 daily ranges above its 200-day average price (11.2% above it in plain percentage terms) — a way of asking how far it has stretched from its own average in units of how far it normally moves in a day, so a calm company and a jumpy one can be compared on the same scale | 3.4 daily ranges above its 200-day average |

Candlestick patterns

| Since a doji | 2 sessions ago it opened and closed at almost the same price after trading through a wider range — a "doji", the classic picture of buyers and sellers finishing the session level | 2 sessions ago |
|---|---|---|
| Since a bullish engulfing | 7 sessions ago it opened below the previous session's close and finished above that session's open — a "bullish engulfing" pair, where one up day more than undid the down day before it | 7 sessions ago |
Price gaps
2
| Gap at the open | it opened on 2026-08-21 0.4% above the previous session's close — an overnight gap, the part of the move that happened while the market was shut, and traded back through that level before the close | +0.4% |
|---|---|---|
| Gap filled | a 5.7% gap up opened on 2026-08-06 has been "filled" 11 sessions ago — price traded back through the level the gap left behind, and it closed again during the very session that opened it | 11 sessions ago |
Price streaks
1
| Closing streak | it has closed higher 4 sessions in a row, a +5.81% move over the run — an unbroken run of up days, which describes what has already happened and says nothing about the next session | 4 sessions up |

Signal agreement
2
| Bullish technical signals | 5 of the 9 technical signals we can compute for it are currently in a bullish state: a "golden cross" — its 50-day average is above its 200-day, trading above its 200-day average, a fresh 20-day high, MACD momentum is positive, trading above the Ichimoku cloud — these describe past price behaviour, not a forecast | 5 of 9 |
|---|---|---|
| Bearish technical signals | 1 of the 9 technical signals we can compute for it is currently in a bearish state: lagging the market over 6 months — these describe past price behaviour, not a forecast | 1 of 9 |
Trend (Ichimoku cloud)
1
| Vs the Ichimoku cloud | trading 1.0% above the Ichimoku cloud — a band drawn from where its own highs and lows sat up to 2026-07-16 and projected forward over today's price, the side traders read as an established uptrend, with the band below acting as the level that would have to give way. The band itself is moderate, spanning 2.8% of the share price. | +1.0% |
|---|
Volume-weighted price
2
| Vs this year’s average price paid | the price is 9% above the average price paid so far this year, so the typical buyer over that stretch is showing a gain. That average is $29.39 — a volume-weighted average of daily closes over 154 sessions, not a true tick-by-tick VWAP. | +9.0% |
|---|---|---|
| Vs the average paid since it last reported | the price is 5% above the average price paid since it last reported on 2026-08-06 (its 8-K), so the typical buyer over that stretch is showing a gain. That average is $30.46 — a volume-weighted average of daily closes over 12 sessions, not a true tick-by-tick VWAP. | +5.2% |
Price levels it has turned at before
KDP last closed at $32.04 on 2026-08-21. Since 2024-08-21 it has turned at 7 prices below its last close and 4 above; the 3 nearest below and the 3 nearest above are listed, nearest first.

Wave structure
Its recent swings can be read as a three-part downward correction — the A-B-C shape chartists use for a pullback — now complete.
This labelling fails — stops being a possible reading at all — if it closes below $28.66.
It is the only labelling that fits these swings, though its proportions are not the textbook ones.
This reading has stood for 4 trading days, since 2026-08-18.

Change over time is not available yet: it needs two readings of the same reporting period at least 30 days apart, and we have been recording these estimates since 2026-08-04. An estimate for a DIFFERENT quarter is not a revision, so a reading from before the last report is never compared with one after it.
The consensus estimate for the next reporting period, and how it has moved between readings of that SAME period. A change is measured only between readings estimating one period — when a company reports, the consensus moves to the next quarter and the two numbers are not comparable.

- Preferred Investment Agreement definition: expanded to include 'and certain other investors party thereto' in newer filing
- Pod Manufacturing JV definition: changed from 'A limited partnership joint venture with the JV Investors and wholly-owned subsidiary of KDP' to 'Keurig JV, LP' in newer filing
- Notes:
- The two filings cover different fiscal periods (Q1 2026 in newer filing vs Q3 2025 in older filing), which affects financial statement comparisons
- The balance sheet dates differ (March 31, 2026 vs September 30, 2025), making balance sheet line item changes partially attributable to timing rather than policy changes
- Removal of certain glossary terms may reflect completion of transactions (e.g., JDE Peet's Acquisition removal) rather than policy changes
- The large increase in restricted cash is a notable change but its nature and purpose cannot be determined from the glossary alone

Insider activity (SEC Form 4)
No open-market insider purchases or sales are on record for KDP — recent Form 4 activity was compensation-related (awards, option exercises, or tax withholding), not open-market buying or selling.
View full insider trading history → View SEC Form 3/4/5 filingsOnly open-market purchases (SEC code P) and sales (code S) are counted here. Option exercises, vesting/awards, gifts, and shares withheld for taxes are excluded — they are compensation or mechanical, not open-market conviction. Sales may be planned and non-discretionary (e.g. a Rule 10b5-1 plan) and are not necessarily bearish; open-market buying is not a recommendation to buy. Informational only — not financial advice.

Change counts cover only managers that filed 13F reports in BOTH quarters, derived between two quarter-end snapshots — not same-day trades; a single manager is never said to have "bought" or "sold".
Institutional holdings are quarter-end long positions reported on SEC Form 13F-HR, filed up to 45 days after the quarter ends — they are delayed, are not real-time trades, exclude short positions and most non-US securities, and are not investment advice. Any increase/decrease is a reported change between two quarterly snapshots, not a same-day purchase or sale. These are quarter-end snapshots from the 13F filings on SEC EDGAR, filed within 45 days — not real-time, and any change is a difference between two quarterly reports, not a same-day trade.

KDP had 4.69% of its shares outstanding sold short as of the 2026-07-31 FINRA settlement date (percent of FLOAT would be higher — float is not disclosed in the source). FINRA reported 5.5 days to cover at the same settlement.
- Reported short interest (shares) 63,810,402
- Short interest (% of shares outstanding) 4.69%
- Prior settlement (shares) 62,953,820
- Reported change 1.36%
- Days to cover (reported) 5.5
Reported to FINRA as of the 2026-07-31 settlement date. Short interest is reported to FINRA and published on a delayed, bi-monthly schedule (as of a settlement date, disseminated roughly eight business days later) — it is NOT real-time, does not cover every venue or all US trading, and is not a short-squeeze prediction or investment advice. Days-to-cover is the value FINRA reports; percent of float is not shown because the source file carries no share-count denominator — where a percent appears it is of shares OUTSTANDING, the larger base, and is therefore a floor on percent of float.
