Image Source: TradingView. Looking to 2025, PepsiCo continues to expect a low-single-digit increase in organic revenue and core constant currency earnings per share to be approximately even with the prior year. Management expects total cash returns to shareholders of approximately $8.6 billion, comprised of dividends of $7.6 billion and share buybacks of $1.0 billion. On a core earnings per share basis, the company expects a 0.5% decline in 2025 versus previous expectations of a 1.5% decline and compared to core earnings per share of $8.16 in 2024. The company ended the quarter with debt obligations of $50.8 billion and cash and short-term investments of $8.7 billion. We like PepsiCo, but think there are better opportunities in the simulated newsletter portfolios.

Delta Air Lines Generates Record September Quarter Revenue
Image Source: TradingView. Looking to the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025, Delta Air Lines expects total revenue to increase 2%-4%, with an operating margin of 10.5%-12%, resulting in earnings per share in the range of $1.60-$1.90. For fiscal year 2025, earnings per share is targeted at approximately $6.00, while free cash flow is expected in the range of $3.5-$4 billion. Gross leverage is anticipated to be less than 2.5x. Delta ended the quarter with $14.9 billion in debt and finance leases and $3.8 billion in cash and cash equivalents. Delta’s third quarter results speak to healthy consumer spending as a read on the economy, but we won’t be investing in any airline anytime soon.

We like Casey’s, but shares aren’t cheap enough for us to bite.

Lennar Continues to Navigate Weakness in the Housing Market
Image Source: TradingView. In the fiscal third quarter, Lennar’s new orders increased 12% to 23,004 homes. Excluding mark-to-market gains, fiscal third quarter net earnings were $516 million, or $2.00 per diluted share, compared to $1.1 billion, or $3.90 per diluted share in the prior year quarter. The average sales price of homes delivered was $383,000 in the third quarter of 2025, compared to $422,000 in the third quarter of last year. Gross margins on home sales were $1.4 billion, or 17.5%, in the third quarter of 2025, down from 22.5% in the third quarter of 2024. Lennar is navigating weakness in a housing market that is requiring additional incentives, hurting margins, while it deals with higher land costs. We’re not interested in Lennar’s shares at this time.
