Did Ulta Beauty's wages expense as a percent of net sales increase or decrease in FY2023? | For the Full Year of Fiscal 2022
Net sales increased 18.3% to $10.2 billion compared to $8.6 billion in fiscal 2021,
primarily due to the favorable impact from the continued resilience of the beauty
category, retail price increases, the impact of new brands and product innovation,
increased social occasions, and fewer COVID-19 limitations compared to fiscal 2021.
Comparable sales increased 15.6% compared to an increase of 37.9% in fiscal 2021,
driven by a 10.8% increase in transactions and a 4.3% increase in average ticket.
Gross profit increased 20.1% to $4.0 billion compared to $3.4 billion in fiscal 2021. As
a percentage of net sales, gross profit increased to 39.6% compared to 39.0% in fiscal
2021, primarily due to leverage of fixed costs, strong growth in other revenue, and
favorable channel mix shifts, partially offset by higher inventory shrink and lower
merchandise margin.
SG&A expenses increased 16.2% to $2.4 billion compared to $2.1 billion in fiscal
2021. As a percentage of net sales, SG&A expenses decreased to 23.5% compared to
23.9% in fiscal 2021, primarily due to lower marketing expenses and leverage of
incentive compensation due to higher sales, partially offset by deleverage of corporate
overhead due to strategic investments and deleverage of store payroll and benefits
due to wage investments. | {
"answer": "Wages expense as a percent of net sales increased in FY2023. The answer here assumes FY2023 refers to the 12 months ended on January 28, 2023 (although the company refers to this period as its fiscal 2022.",
"justification": "Fiscal 2022 = FY2023. Fiscal 2021 = FY2022. Store payroll and benefits = wages. Store payroll and benefits offsets reduction in SG&A percent of net sales in FY2023."

For additional information regarding the nature of charges discussed below, refer to Note 1, Basis of Presentation, Note 2, Restructuring, and Note 3, Goodwill and Intangible Assets, of the Notes to
Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
(1)
Represents the non-cash amortization of definite-lived intangible assets associated with acquisitions, including customer relationships, tradenames and developed technology assets.
(2)
Represents charges related to employee termination benefits and subsequent adjustments from higher-than-expected employee retention related to previously planned organizational changes.
(3)
Represents the gain on sale of a Mexico subsidiary subsequent to our exit from operations in Mexico.
(4)
The non-GAAP adjustments primarily relate to the U.S. and Mexico. As such, the forecasted annual income tax charge on the U.S. non-GAAP adjustments is calculated using the statutory tax rate of
24.5%. There is no forecasted annual income tax benefit for Mexico non-GAAP items, as there is no forecasted annual tax expense on the income in the calculation of GAAP income tax expense.
Our non-GAAP operating income rates decreased in the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2024, primarily due to unfavorable SG&A rates, partially
offset by favorable gross profit rates.
Our non-GAAP effective tax rate increased in the second quarter of fiscal 2024, primarily due to the prior year resolution of certain discrete tax matters. Our non-
GAAP effective tax rate increased in the first six months of fiscal 2024, primarily due to the prior year resolution of certain discrete tax matters and decreased tax
benefits from stock-based compensation, partially offset by the impact of lower pre-tax earnings.
Our non-GAAP diluted EPS decreased in the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2024, primarily due to the decreases in non-GAAP operating income.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We closely manage our liquidity and capital resources. Our liquidity requirements depend on key variables, including the level of investment required to support
our business strategies, the performance of our business, capital expenditures, dividends, credit facilities, short-term borrowing arrangements and working capital
management. We modify our approach to managing these variables as changes in our operating environment arise. For example, capital expenditures and share
repurchases are a component of our cash flow and capital management strategy, which, to a large extent, we can adjust in response to economic and other
changes in our business environment. We have a disciplined approach to capital allocation, which focuses on investing in key priorities that support our strategy.

By how much did Pepsico increase its unsecured five year revolving credit agreement on May 26, 2023? | Effective May 26, 2023, PepsiCo terminated the $3,800,000,000 five year unsecured revolving credit agreement, dated as of May 27, 2022, among
PepsiCo, as borrower, the lenders party thereto, and Citibank, N.A., as administrative agent (the 2022 Five Year Credit Agreement). There were no
outstanding borrowings under the 2022 Five Year Credit Agreement at the time of its termination.
On May 26, 2023, PepsiCo entered into a new $4,200,000,000 five year unsecured revolving credit agreement (the 2023 Five Year Credit
Agreement) among PepsiCo, as borrower, the lenders party thereto, and Citibank, N.A., as administrative agent. The 2023 Five Year Credit Agreement
enables PepsiCo and its borrowing subsidiaries to borrow up to $4,200,000,000 in U.S. Dollars and/or Euros, including a $750,000,000 swing line
subfacility for Euro-denominated borrowings permitted to be borrowed on a same day basis, subject to customary terms and conditions, and expires on
May 26, 2028. PepsiCo may also, upon the agreement of either the then existing lenders or of additional banks not currently party to the 2023 Five Year
Credit Agreement, increase the commitments under the 2023 Five Year Credit Agreement to up to $4,950,000,000 in U.S. Dollars and/or Euros. PepsiCo
may, once a year, request renewal of the 2023 Five Year Credit Agreement for an additional one year period. Subject to certain conditions stated in the 2023
Five Year Credit Agreement, PepsiCo and its borrowing subsidiaries may borrow, prepay and reborrow amounts under the 2023 Five Year Credit
Agreement at any time during the term of the 2023 Five Year Credit Agreement. Funds borrowed under the 2023 Five Year Credit Agreement may be used
for general corporate purposes of PepsiCo and its subsidiaries. The 2023 Five Year Credit Agreement contains customary representations and warranties
and events of default. In the ordinary course of their respective businesses, the lenders under the 2023 Five Year Credit Agreement and their affiliates have
engaged, and may in the future engage, in commercial banking and/or investment banking transactions with PepsiCo and its affiliates. | {
"answer": "$400,000,000 increase.",
"justification": "Increase in five year unsecured revolving credit agreement = May 26, 2023, five year unsecured revolving credit agreement amount of $4,200,000,000 - May 27, 2022, five year unsecured revolving credit agreement amount of $3,800,000,000 = $400,000,000"

What drove the reduction in SG&A expense as a percent of net sales in FY2023? | For the Full Year of Fiscal 2022
Net sales increased 18.3% to $10.2 billion compared to $8.6 billion in fiscal 2021,
primarily due to the favorable impact from the continued resilience of the beauty
category, retail price increases, the impact of new brands and product innovation,
increased social occasions, and fewer COVID-19 limitations compared to fiscal 2021.
Comparable sales increased 15.6% compared to an increase of 37.9% in fiscal 2021,
driven by a 10.8% increase in transactions and a 4.3% increase in average ticket.
Gross profit increased 20.1% to $4.0 billion compared to $3.4 billion in fiscal 2021. As
a percentage of net sales, gross profit increased to 39.6% compared to 39.0% in fiscal
2021, primarily due to leverage of fixed costs, strong growth in other revenue, and
favorable channel mix shifts, partially offset by higher inventory shrink and lower
merchandise margin.
SG&A expenses increased 16.2% to $2.4 billion compared to $2.1 billion in fiscal
2021. As a percentage of net sales, SG&A expenses decreased to 23.5% compared to
23.9% in fiscal 2021, primarily due to lower marketing expenses and leverage of
incentive compensation due to higher sales, partially offset by deleverage of corporate
overhead due to strategic investments and deleverage of store payroll and benefits
due to wage investments. | {
"answer": "Lower marketing expenses and leverage of incentive compensation due to higher sales. The answer here assumes FY2023 refers to the 12 months ended on January 28, 2023 (although the company refers to this period as its fiscal 2022.",

Merchandise inventories, net at the end of the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 totaled $1.6
billion compared to $1.5 billion at the end of the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021. The $104.2

inventory to support new brand launches and brand expansions, and inventory cost
increases. | {

If operating margin is not a useful metric for a company like this, then please state that and explain why. | SG&A, measured as a percent of sales, increased in 2022 when compared to the same period last year.

$1.2 billion, certain impairment costs related to exiting PFAS manufacturing (see Note 15), costs related to exiting Russia (see Note 15), divestiture-related restructuring

What is the quantity of restructuring costs directly outlined in Pepsico's income statements for FY2022? If restructuring costs are not explicitly outlined then state 0. | Note 3 Restructuring and Impairment Charges
2019 Multi-Year Productivity Plan
We publicly announced a multi-year productivity plan on February 15, 2019 (2019 Productivity Plan) that will leverage new
technology and business models to further simplify, harmonize and automate processes; re-engineer our go-to-market and
information systems, including deploying the right automation for each market; and simplify our organization and optimize our
manufacturing and supply chain footprint. To build on the successful implementation of the 2019 Productivity Plan, in the fourth
quarter of 2022, we expanded and extended the plan through the end of 2028 to take advantage of additional opportunities within
the initiatives described above. As a result, we expect to incur pre-tax charges of approximately $3.65 billion, including cash
expenditures of approximately $2.9 billion. These pre-tax charges are expected to consist of approximately 55% of severance and
