DAMIAN GAMMELL, CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER, SAID:
"2022 was a very successful year, our first as Coca-Cola Europacific Partners.
This is testament to the hard work of our colleagues to whom we are extremely
grateful. Our focus on well invested and winning brands across our broad pack
offering, great in-market execution and price and promotion strategy served us
well. We benefited from the continued recovery of the away from home channel
and the return of travel and tourism with further growth in the home channel.
Combined with our ongoing focus on efficiency, this delivered strong top and
bottom-line growth, value share gains and generated solid free cash flow. We
continue to be a great partner for our customers, a great place to work for
our colleagues whilst making further progress against our sustainability
commitments - more of our sites went carbon neutral, we switched logistics to
lower carbon alternatives and invested in recycling facilities.
"A record dividend in FY22 combined with our FY23 guidance and ambitious but
achievable mid-term objectives demonstrate the strength of our business.
Enhanced by our great API business, we are bigger and better, more diverse and
robust, operating in resilient categories. We remain confident in the future,
despite a dynamic outlook, and we continue to invest for the longer-term,
evidenced by the minority buy out of our exciting Indonesian market. Our clear
strategy, strong brand partner relationships and great people will ensure we
continue to create sustainable value for all our stakeholders. We have the
platform and momentum to go even further together for a greater future."

FY & Q4 HIGHLIGHTS( 1 , 3 )
Revenue
FY Reported +26.0%; FY Pro forma +15.5%( 5 )
• Reported growth, in addition to the drivers below, reflects the
acquisition of Coca-Cola Amatil (completed 10 May 2021)
• Delivered more revenue growth for our retail customers than any of
our FMCG peers in Europe, & any of our NARTD peers in Australia & New
Zealand( 6 )
• NARTD value share gains across measured channels both in
store( 7 ) (+10bps) including sparkling (+20bps) & online( 8 ) (+80bps)
• Pro forma:
◦ Comparable volume +9.5%( 9 ) (+3.5% vs 2019) driven by solid
recovery of away from home (AFH), & continued growth in Home across our
markets
◦ Comparable volume by channel: AFH +18.5% (broadly flat vs 2019)
reflecting fewer restrictions & increased mobility. The return of tourism
& favourable weather in Europe also supported the strong recovery of
immediate consumption (IC) packs (+23.0%( 10 )). Home +4.0% (+6.5% vs 2019)
supported by recovery of IC packs & sustained growth in key future
consumption packs (e.g. multipack cans +6.0%( 10 ) & +25.0% vs 2019)
◦ Revenue per unit case +6.0%( 2 , 5 ) (+9.0%( 11 ) vs 2019)
reflecting positive pack & channel mix driven by the recovery of AFH,
promotional optimisation & favourable headline price following the
successful implementation of dynamic headline pricing strategies across our
markets
Q4 Reported +10.0%; Q4 Fx-neutral +10.5%( 5 )
• Comparable volume +1.5%( 9 ) (flat vs 2019) despite disruption
related to a customer negotiation in the Home channel & cycling tougher
comparables
◦ AFH comparable volume: +5.5% (-4.5% vs 2019)
◦ Home comparable volume: -1.0% (+3.5% vs 2019)
• Revenue per unit case +9.0%( 2 , 5 ) (+14.0%( 11 ) vs 2019) driven
by favourable price & positive pack & channel mix driven by the
recovery of AFH
• Recent trading indicating no significant change in underlying
consumer demand
Operating profit
FY Reported +37.5%; Pro forma comparable +12.5%( 5 )
• Reported growth, in addition to the drivers below, reflects the
acquisition of Coca-Cola Amatil
• Pro forma cost of sales per unit case +9.0%( 2 , 5 ) reflecting
increased revenue per unit case driving higher concentrate costs, commodity
inflation & adverse mix, partially offset by the favourable recovery of
fixed manufacturing costs given higher volumes
• Comparable operating profit of €2,138m, +12.5%( 3 , 5 )
reflecting increased revenue & the benefit of ongoing efficiency
programmes (over 90% delivered of multi-year ~€375m programme)
• Comparable diluted EPS of €3.39, +13.0%( 3 , 5 ) (reported
+53.0%)
Dividend
• Record full year interim dividend per share of €1.68( 4 ),
+20.0% vs last year & +35.5% vs 2019, maintaining annualised dividend
payout ratio of approximately 50% (in line with our dividend policy). Equating
to total absolute dividend of €763m
Other
• Generated strong adjusted free cash flow( 12 ) of €1,805m
reflecting strong performance & working capital initiatives (net cashflows
from operating activities of €2,932m), supporting our guidance to return to
the top end of our target leverage range by the end of 2023 (Net debt:Adjusted
EBITDA( 1 ) of 2.5x-3x). At the end of 2022, Net debt:Adjusted EBITDA( 1 ) was
3.5x
• ROIC increased by 112bps( 3 ) on a pro forma basis to 9.1% driven
by the increase in comparable profit after tax & continued focus on
capital allocation
• Maximising system value creation with API:
◦ Reorientation of the portfolio to enable greater focus on
NARTD, RTD alcohol & spirits nearing completion:
▪ Previously announced plans to exit the production, sale &
distribution of Australia beer & apple cider products completed( 13 );
minimal EBIT impact
▪ Sale of NARTD own brands to The Coca-Cola Company for A$275m;
substantially complete; annualised EBIT impact of ~A$25m
◦ On 15 February 2023, CCEP completed the purchase of The
Coca-Cola Company's 29.4% minority share in our Indonesia business (Coca-Cola
Bottling Indonesia), increasing CCEP's ownership to 100% for a total
consideration of €282m (including significant cash acquired). Expect
transaction to be EPS accretive (minimal overall impact). This simplifies our
ownership structure & operations whilst demonstrating our commitment to
the future of this exciting market
FY22 SUSTAINABILITY HIGHLIGHTS
• Launched updated commitments & targets to include API
(announced in November 2022, link to presentation here
(https://ir.cocacolaep.com/static-files/69f82655-5d6c-4c06-8ab8-835b0d2be957)
)
• Retained inclusion on Carbon Disclosures Project's A Lists for
Climate & Water & continued to be recognised in MSCI ESG Leaders Index
• Closed 2022 at ~48%( 14 ) recycled plastic (rPET); Europe
~56%( 14 ) & API ~27%( 14 )
◦ Launched tethered closures on our PET bottles in 7 of our
markets
◦ Opened new industry partnership PET recycling facilities in
Australia & Indonesia
• Achieved 6 manufacturing sites as carbon neutral certified
• Retained inclusion on the Bloomberg Gender Equality index
FY23 GUIDANCE & OUTLOOK( 1 )
The outlook for FY23 reflects current market conditions. Unless stated
otherwise, guidance is on a comparable & Fx-neutral basis
Top line
• Revenue: comparable growth of 6-8% driven by price & mix
◦ Dynamic headline pricing & promotional optimisation across
our markets & annualisation of FY22 second headline pricing increases
Bottom line
• Cost of sales per unit case*: comparable growth of ~8%
◦ Expect commodity inflation to be up ~10% (previously
mid-teens)
◦ FY23 hedge coverage at ~85%
◦ Concentrate directly linked to revenue per unit case through
the incidence pricing model
◦ Low overall FX transactional exposure (<10%)
• Operating profit*: comparable growth of 6-7%
◦ Continued focus on delivering efficiency programmes &
optimising discretionary spend
Other
• Comparable effective tax rate: ~23%
• Free cash flow: at least €1.6bn
• Capital expenditure: 4-5% of revenue excluding leases
• Dividend payout ratio: c.50%( 15 )
* We expect the cost of sales per unit case increase to be weighted more to
the first half given the lower comparable from last year as previously
disclosed. Consequently we anticipate low single digit operating profit growth
in the first half of this year(

API
• Q4 volume reflects continued trading momentum in Australia

Indonesia supported solid FY volume growth.
• Coca-Cola No Sugar & Monster outperformed, with both Q4
& FY volume ahead of 2019.
• FY revenue/UC( 20 ) growth driven by favourable underlying
price, promotional optimisation in Australia, & positive pack &
channel mix.

channel supported solid FY volume growth in both channels versus 2019.
• Coca-Cola Zero Sugar, Fuze Tea & Monster outperformed
versus 2019 in both Q4 & FY.

small PET +25.0%) & favourable underlying price.

& disruption relating to a customer negotiation (now resolved). The

Home channel, supported FY overall volume growth versus 2019.
• Coca-Cola Zero Sugar, Fuze Tea & Monster outperformed
versus 2019 in both Q4 & FY.

price, positive brand mix (e.g. Monster volume +23.0%) & positive pack
& channel mix led by the recovery of the AFH channel.

channel. The solid recovery of this channel, supported by favourable weather

outperformed versus 2019 in both Q4 & FY.

increased Spanish VAT rate.
• Coca-Cola Zero Sugar & Monster outperformed, with both Q4
& FY volume ahead of 2019.
• FY revenue/UC( 20 ) growth driven by favourable underlying
price & positive channel & pack mix led by the recovery of the AFH

further growth in the Home channel supported solid FY overall volume growth
versus 2019.
• Coca-Cola Zero Sugar, Monster & Fuze Tea outperformed
versus 2019 in both Q4 & FY.
• FY revenue/UC( 20 ) growth driven by favourable underlying
price & positive pack & channel mix led by the ongoing recovery of the

Forward-Looking Statements
This document contains statements, estimates or projections that constitute
"forward-looking statements" concerning the financial condition, performance,
results, guidance and outlook, dividends, consequences of mergers,
acquisitions and divestitures, strategy and objectives of Coca-Cola
Europacific Partners plc and its subsidiaries (together CCEP or the Group).
Generally, the words "ambition", "target", "aim", "believe", "expect",
"intend", "estimate", "anticipate", "project", "plan", "seek", "may", "could",
"would", "should", "might", "will", "forecast", "outlook", "guidance",
"possible", "potential", "predict", "objective" and similar expressions
identify forward-looking statements, which generally are not historical in
nature.
Forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks that could cause
actual results to differ materially from CCEP's historical experience and
present expectations or projections. As a result, undue reliance should not be
placed on forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date on which
they are made. These risks include but are not limited to:
1. those set forth in the "Risk Factors" section of CCEP's 2021 Annual Report
on Form 20-F filed with the SEC on 15 March 2022 and as updated and
supplemented with the additional information set forth in the "Principal Risks
and Risk Factors" section of the H1 2022 Half-year Report filed with the SEC
on 4 August 2022;
2. the extent to which COVID-19 will continue to affect CCEP and the results
of its operations, financial condition and cash flows will depend on future
developments that are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including the
scope and duration of the pandemic and actions taken by governmental
authorities and other third parties in response to the pandemic;
3. risks and uncertainties relating to the global supply chain, including
impact from war in Ukraine, such as the risk that the business will not be
able to guarantee sufficient supply of raw materials, supplies, finished
goods, natural gas and oil and increased state-sponsored cyber risks;
4. risks and uncertainties relating to the global economy and/or a potential
recession in one or more countries, including risks from elevated inflation,
price increases, price elasticity, disposable income of consumers and
employees, pressure on and from suppliers, increased fraud, and the perception
or manifestation of a global economic downturn; and
5. risks and uncertainties relating to potential global energy crisis, with
potential interruptions and shortages in the global energy supply,
specifically the natural gas supply in our territories. Energy shortages at
our sites, our suppliers and customers could cause interruptions to our supply
chain and capability to meet our production and distribution targets.
Due to these risks, CCEP's actual future results, dividend payments, capital
and leverage ratios, growth, including growth in revenue, cost of sales per
unit case and operating profit, free cash flow, market share, tax rate,
efficiency savings, achievement of sustainability goals, including net zero
emissions, capital expenditures, the results of the acquisition of the
minority share of our Indonesian business, and the results of the integration
of the businesses following the acquisition of Coca-Cola Amatil, including
expected efficiency and combination savings, may differ materially from the
plans, goals, expectations and guidance set out in forward-looking statements.
These risks may also adversely affect CCEP's share price. Additional risks
that may impact CCEP's future financial condition and performance are
identified in filings with the SEC which are available on the SEC's website at
www.sec.gov. CCEP does not undertake any obligation to publicly update or
revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information,
future events, or otherwise, except as required under applicable rules, laws
and regulations. Any or all of the forward-looking statements contained in
this filing and in any other of CCEP's public statements may prove to be
incorrect.
Note Regarding the Presentation of Pro forma financial information and
Alternative Performance Measures
Pro forma financial information
Pro forma financial information has been provided in order to illustrate the
effects of the acquisition of Coca-Cola Amatil Limited (the Acquisition;
referred to as CCL pre acquisition, API post acquisition) on the results of
operations of CCEP in 2021 and allow for greater comparability of the results
of the combined group between periods. The pro forma financial information for
2021 has been prepared for illustrative purposes only and because of its
nature, addresses a hypothetical situation. It is based on information and
assumptions that CCEP believes are reasonable, including assumptions as at 1
January 2021 relating to acquisition accounting provisional fair values of API
assets and liabilities which are assumed to be equivalent to those that have
been provisionally determined as of the acquisition date and included in the
financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2021, on a constant
currency basis. The pro forma information for 2021 also assumes the interest
impact of additional debt financing reflecting the actual weighted average
interest rate for acquisition financing of c.0.40% for 2021.
The pro forma financial information does not intend to represent what CCEP's
results of operations actually would have been if the acquisition had been
completed on the dates indicated, nor does it intend to represent, predict or
estimate the results of operations for any future period or financial position
at any future date. In addition, it does not reflect ongoing cost savings that
CCEP expects to achieve as a result of the acquisition or the costs necessary
to achieve these cost savings or synergies. As pro forma information is
prepared to illustrate retrospectively the effects of future transactions,
there are limitations that are inherent to the nature of pro forma
information. As such, had the acquisition taken place on the dates assumed,
the actual effects would not necessarily have been the same as those presented
in the pro forma financial information contained herein.
Alternative Performance Measures
We use certain alternative performance measures (non-GAAP performance
measures) to make financial, operating and planning decisions and to evaluate
and report performance. We believe these measures provide useful information
to investors and as such, where clearly identified, we have included certain
alternative performance measures in this document to allow investors to better
analyse our business performance and allow for greater comparability. To do
so, we have excluded items affecting the comparability of period-over-period
financial performance as described below. The alternative performance measures
included herein should be read in conjunction with and do not replace the
directly reconcilable GAAP measures.
For purposes of this document, the following terms are defined:
''As reported'' are results extracted from our consolidated financial
statements.
''Pro forma'' includes the results of CCEP and API as if the Acquisition had
occurred at the beginning of 2021, including acquisition accounting
adjustments relating to provisional fair values. Pro forma also includes
impact of the additional debt financing costs incurred by CCEP in connection
with the Acquisition for all periods presented.
"Comparable'' is defined as results excluding items impacting comparability,
which include restructuring charges, acquisition and integration related
costs, inventory fair value step up related to acquisition accounting, the
impact of the closure of the GB defined benefit pension scheme, net impact
related to European flooding, income arising from the favourable court ruling
pertaining to the ownership of certain mineral rights in Australia, impact of
a defined benefit plan amendment arising from legislative changes in respect
of the minimum retirement age and net tax items relating to rate and law
changes. Comparable volume is also adjusted for selling days.
''Pro forma Comparable'' is defined as the pro forma results excluding items
impacting comparability, as described above.
''Fx-neutral'' is defined as period results excluding the impact of foreign
exchange rate changes. Foreign exchange impact is calculated by recasting
current year results at prior year exchange rates.
''Capex'' or "Capital expenditures'' is defined as purchases of property,
plant and equipment and capitalised software, plus payments of principal on
lease obligations, less proceeds from disposals of property, plant and
equipment. Capex is used as a measure to ensure that cash spending on capital
investment is in line with the Group's overall strategy for the use of cash.
''Free cash flow'' is defined as net cash flows from operating activities less
capital expenditures (as defined above) and interest paid. Free cash flow is
used as a measure of the Group's cash generation from operating activities,
taking into account investments in property, plant and equipment and
non-discretionary lease and interest payments. Free cash flow is not intended
to represent residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures.
''Adjusted free cash flow'' is defined as Free cash flow (as defined above)
adjusted for items that are not reasonably likely to recur within two years,
nor have occurred within the prior two years. Adjusted free cash flow is not
intended to represent residual cash flow available for discretionary
expenditures. Refer to page 19 for additional information.
''Adjusted EBITDA'' is calculated as Earnings Before Interest, Tax,
Depreciation and Amortisation (EBITDA), after adding back items impacting the
comparability of period over period financial performance. Adjusted EBITDA
does not reflect cash expenditures, or future requirements for capital
expenditures or contractual commitments. Further, adjusted EBITDA does not
reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, working capital needs, and
although depreciation and amortisation are non-cash charges, the assets being
depreciated and amortised are likely to be replaced in the future and adjusted
EBITDA does not reflect cash requirements for such replacements.
''Net Debt'' is defined as the net of cash and cash equivalents and short term
investments less borrowings and adjusted for the fair value of hedging
instruments related to borrowings and other financial assets/liabilities
related to borrowings. We believe that reporting net debt is useful as it
reflects a metric used by the Group to assess cash management and leverage. In
addition, the ratio of net debt to adjusted EBITDA is used by investors,
analysts and credit rating agencies to analyse our operating performance in
the context of targeted financial leverage.
''ROIC" or "Return on invested capital" is defined as comparable operating
profit after tax attributable to shareholders divided by the average of
opening and closing invested capital for the year. Invested capital is
calculated as the addition of borrowings and equity attributable to
shareholders less cash and cash equivalents and short term investments. ROIC
is used as a measure of capital efficiency and reflects how well the Group
generates comparable operating profit relative to the capital invested in the
business.
''Dividend payout ratio'' is defined as dividends as a proportion of
comparable profit after tax.
Additionally, within this document, we provide certain forward-looking
non-GAAP financial Information, which management uses for planning and
measuring performance. We are not able to reconcile forward-looking non-GAAP
measures to reported measures without unreasonable efforts because it is not
possible to predict with a reasonable degree of certainty the actual impact or
exact timing of items that may impact comparability throughout year.
Unless otherwise stated, percent amounts are rounded to the nearest 0.5%.

benefit of ongoing efficiency programmes and our continuous efforts on
discretionary spend optimisation.
Restructuring charges of €144 million were recognised within reported
operating expenses for the year ending 31 December 2022, which are primarily
attributable to €82 million of expense recognised in connection with the
transformation of the full service vending operations and related initiatives
in Germany.
Restructuring charges of €136 million were recognised within reported
operating expenses for the year ending 31 December 2021, related principally
to the continuation of the Accelerate Competitiveness programme announced in

Supplemental Financial Information - Effective Tax Rate
The reported effective tax rate was 22% and 29% for the year ended 31 December
2022 and 31 December 2021, respectively.
The decrease in the reported effective tax rate to 22% in 2022 (2021: 29%) is
largely due to the remeasurement of deferred tax positions following the
enactment of tax rate changes in the United Kingdom, Netherlands and Indonesia
in the prior period.
The comparable effective tax rate was 22% and 21% for the years ended 31
December 2022 and 31 December 2021, respectively.

regional tax authorities of Bizkaia (Basque Region). These proceeds are
included within Group's net cash flows from operating activities for the year.
Given the unusual nature of this item, and to allow for better period over
