PREMIUM ANALYSIS11

Average premium of beverage industry transactions in recent 10 years is 34.7%

15.77%12 premium above DPS closing price on 4, Dec 2015 is offered

This premium is deemed acceptable, compared with industry average because

o Lower premium is a price advantage

o DPS is hard to find a strategic buyer due to its size

o DPS’s main business is in mature and declining industry

11 See EXHIBIT 9 for details. Note that in 2008 where there was a financial crisis, any transaction data that in that year and subsequent 2009 was not considered in calculating average

premium. 12 Based on current market price of $92.42.

TRANSACTION PAYMENT METHOD

Cash instead of stock will be used to pay for the transaction because

Board of directors of DPS are about to retire13, even though current stock price of Monster is underestimated14.

Cash payment helps lock up the target’s gain and provide liquidity to DPS shareholders.

OTHER ASSUMPTIONS SUMMARY

All valuation methods forecast next five years and apply a terminal value at the end of 2019, the last forecast year. In fact, DPS

will be confronted with various factors, which influence company’s operation that would vary from year to year, including years

beyond 2019.

The sources of financial data provided in this book are Capital IQ, Bloomberg and company’s annual reports. They themselves

could be biased due to accounting manipulations (deliberate dishonesty) and other reasons (incompetence).

The management compensation package in this deal is ignored, which overestimates buyer’s NPV.

NOTES

[1] As of today on 5, Dec 2015. We strongly believe that this deal needs at least one year to digest since announcement. Most of deals

failed since management are usually good deal maker but not good managers. People who used to work in different companies

separately now need to work together and need time to adapt to each other. Also, new distribution channels cost time to be

consolidated and could be very time-consuming.

[2] Executives of MNST will remain in the new company.

[3] Jim Baldwin and Derry Hobson will join new company and enter Board of Directors. Jim Baldwin is serving as Executive Vice

President and General Counsel in DPS and could provide expertise and experience in managing future Dr Pepper’s business. Derry

Hobson is serving Executive Vice President - Supply Chain in DPS and will play an important role in consolidation of distribution

channels in new company.

[4] Corporate Governance and M-score has proved that management and internal control of DPS is good. In terms of size, expertise and

background of BOD and management, DPS has an impressive management team. Also, Beneish M-Score of DPS as of 5, Dec is -2.59,

showing that its financial statements, including data used in this book, is less likely to be manipulated.
