Notes to the Interim Financial Statements 
 
1   BASIS OF PREPARATION AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES 
 
These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements (interim financial statements) for the nine months
ended 30 September 2016 have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting as adopted by the European
Union (EU) and as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). 
 
The annual financial statements of the Group are prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards
(IFRSs) as adopted by the EU and as issued by the IASB. The interim financial statements have been prepared applying the
accounting policies and presentation that were applied in the preparation of the Group's published consolidated financial
statements for the year ended 31 December 2015. There have been no significant new or revised accounting standards applied
in the nine months ended 30 September 2016. 
 
Legal proceedings 
 
The information contained in Note 7 updates the disclosures concerning legal proceedings and contingent liabilities in the
Group's Annual Report and Form 20-F Information 2015 and Interim Financial Statements for the six months ended 30 June
2016. 
 
Going concern 
 
The Group has considerable financial resources available. As at 30 September 2016 the Group has $3.2bn in financial
resources (cash balances of $3.1bn and undrawn committed bank facilities of $3bn which are available until April 2021, with
only $2.9bn of debt due within one year). The Group's revenues are largely derived from sales of products which are covered
by patents which provide a relatively high level of resilience and predictability to cash inflows, although our revenue is
expected to continue to be significantly impacted by the expiry of patents over the medium term. In addition, government
price interventions in response to budgetary constraints are expected to continue to adversely affect revenues in many of
our mature markets. However, we anticipate new revenue streams from both recently launched medicines and products in
development, and the Group has a wide diversity of customers and suppliers across different geographic areas. Consequently,
the Directors believe that, overall, the Group is well placed to manage its business risks successfully. 
 
On the basis of the above paragraph and after making enquiries, the Directors have a reasonable expectation that the
Company and the Group have adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Accordingly,
the interim financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. 
 
Financial information 
 
The comparative figures shown for the financial year ended 31 December 2015 are not the Company's statutory accounts for
that financial year. Those accounts have been reported on by the Group's auditors and have been delivered to the registrar
of companies. The report of the auditors was (i) unqualified, (ii) did not include a reference to any matters to which the
auditors drew attention by way of emphasis without qualifying their report, and (iii) did not contain a statement under
section 498(2) or (3) of the Companies Act 2006.

Profit before tax for the year ended 30 September 2016 is stated after charging restructuring costs of $713m ($250m for the
