DAMIAN GAMMELL, CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER, SAID:

"We are really pleased to have delivered a solid first half performance
reflecting great brands and great execution. I would like to thank our great
people, alongside our customers and brand partners. We delivered solid top and
bottom-line growth, and impressive free cash flow. The great performance of
APS, led by the Philippines, offset softer volumes in Europe driven by adverse
weather. This demonstrates how our geographic diversification makes us a
stronger and more robust business. We continue to grow share ahead of the
market and to create value for our customers. Our focus on revenue growth
management, headline price and promotion strategy across a broad pack offering
also drove solid gains in revenue per unit case.

 

"Looking ahead, we are well placed operating in categories that remain
resilient. We continue to invest for growth and have strong commercial plans
in place for the rest of this year and beyond to engage customers and
consumers. We remain focused on driving profitable revenue growth, actively
managing our pricing and promotional spend to remain affordable and relevant
to our consumers, alongside our focus on productivity and free cash flow. In
that context, we reaffirm our full year guidance for 2024.

 

 "We are confident that we have the right strategy, done sustainably, to
deliver on our mid-term growth objectives. Combined with our first half
interim dividend, this demonstrates the strength of our business, and our
ability to deliver continued shareholder value."

The outlook for FY24 reflects our current assessment of market conditions.
Unless stated otherwise, guidance is on an adjusted comparable( 4 ) &
FX-neutral basis. Guidance is therefore provided on the basis that the
acquisition of CCBPI occurred on 1 Jan 2023.

 

•       Revenue: comparable growth of ~4%*

◦  More balanced between volumes & price/mix than FY23

◦  Two extra selling days in Q4

 

▪       Cost of sales per UC: comparable growth of ~3% (previously
3-4%)

◦  Expect broadly flat commodity inflation (previously low single-digit
growth)

◦  FY24 hedge coverage at ~90% (previously 85%)

◦  Taxes increase driven by Netherlands

◦  Concentrate directly linked to revenue per UC through incidence pricing

 

▪       Operating profit: comparable growth of ~7%*

▪       Finance costs: weighted average cost of net debt of ~2%

▪       Comparable effective tax rate: ~25%

▪       Comparable free cash flow: ~€1.7bn*

▪       Capital expenditure: ~5% of revenue excluding leases

▪       Dividend payout ratio: ~50%( 7 ) based on comparable EPS

 

*in line with our mid-term strategic objectives

 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, joint ventures, and divestitures, including the joint venture
with Aboitiz Equity Ventures Inc. (AEV) and acquisition of Coca-Cola Beverages
Philippines, Inc. (CCBPI), 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 2023 Annual Report
on Form 20-F filed with the SEC on 15 March 2024 and as updated and
supplemented with the additional information set forth in the "Principal Risks
and Risk Factors" section of this document;

 

2. risks and uncertainties relating to the global supply chain, distribution
and sales, including impact from war in Ukraine and increasing geopolitical
tensions and conflicts including in the Middle East and Asia Pacific region,
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;

 

3. 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;

 

4. risks and uncertainties relating to potential water use reductions due to
regulations by national and regional authorities leading to a potential
temporary decrease in production volume; and

 

5. risks and uncertainties relating to the integration and operation of the
joint venture with AEV and acquisition of CCBPI, including the risk that our
integration of CCBPI's business and operations may not be successful or may be
more difficult, time consuming or costly than expected.

 

 

Due to these risks, CCEP's actual future financial condition, results of
operations, and business activities, including its 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 and recycling initiatives, capital expenditures, our agreements
relating to and results of the joint venture with AEV and acquisition of
CCBPI, and ability to remain in compliance with existing and future regulatory
compliance, 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 Adjusted financial information and
 Alternative Performance Measures

Adjusted financial information

Non-IFRS adjusted financial information for selected metrics has been provided
in order to illustrate the effects of the acquisition of CCBPI on the results
of operations of CCEP and to allow for greater comparability of the results of
the combined group between periods. The adjusted financial information has
been prepared for illustrative purposes only, and because of its nature
addresses a hypothetical situation. It does not intend to represent the
results had the acquisition occurred at the dates indicated, or project the
results for any future dates or periods. It is based on information and
assumptions that CCEP believe are reasonable, including assumptions as at 1
January of the period presented relating to provisional transaction accounting
adjustments. No cost savings or synergies were contemplated in these
provisional adjustments.

The non-IFRS adjusted financial information has not been prepared in
accordance with the requirements of Regulation S-X Article 11 of the US
Securities Act of 1933 or any generally accepted accounting standards, may not
necessarily be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other
companies and should be considered supplemental to, and not a substitute for,
financial information prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting standards.

The acquisition completed on 23 February 2024 and the non-IFRS adjusted
financial information provided reflects the inclusion of CCBPI as if the
acquisition had occurred at the beginning of the period presented. It has been
prepared on a basis consistent with CCEP IFRS accounting policies and includes
provisional transaction accounting adjustments for the periods presented.

Alternative Performance Measures

We use certain alternative performance measures (non-IFRS 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 IFRS measures.

For purposes of this document, the following terms are defined:

''As reported'' are results extracted from our condensed consolidated interim
financial statements.

 

"Adjusted" includes the results of CCEP as if the CCBPI acquisition had
occurred at the beginning of the period presented, including provisional
acquisition accounting adjustments, accounting policy reclassifications and
the impact of debt financing costs in connection with the acquisition.

"Comparable'' is defined as results excluding items impacting comparability,
which include restructuring charges, net impact related to European flooding,
accelerated amortisation charges, expenses related to legal provisions,
inventory fair value step up related to acquisition accounting, impairment
charges, acquisition and integration related costs, income arising from the
ownership of certain mineral rights in Australia and gain on sale of
sub-strata and associated mineral rights in Australia. Comparable volume is
also adjusted for selling days.

''Adjusted comparable" is defined as adjusted results excluding items
impacting comparability, as described above.

''Fx-neutral'' or "FXN" 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.

''Comparable free cash flow'' is defined as net cash flows from operating
activities less capital expenditures (as defined above) and net interest
payments, adjusted for items that are not reasonably likely to recur within
two years, nor have occurred within the prior two years. Comparable 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,
non-discretionary lease and net interest payments while excluding the effects
of items that are unusual in nature to allow for better period over period
comparability. Comparable free cash flow reflects an additional way of viewing
our liquidity, which we believe is useful to our investors, and is not
intended to represent residual cash flow available for discretionary
expenditures.

''Comparable 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. Comparable EBITDA
does not reflect cash expenditures, or future requirements for capital
expenditures or contractual commitments. Further, comparable 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
comparable EBITDA does not reflect cash requirements for such replacements.

''Net Debt'' is defined as borrowings adjusted for the fair value of hedging
instruments and other financial assets/liabilities related to borrowings, net
of cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments. 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
comparable EBITDA is used by investors, analysts and credit rating agencies to
analyse our operating performance in the context of targeted financial
leverage.

''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-IFRS financial information, which management uses for planning and
measuring performance. We are not able to reconcile forward-looking non-IFRS
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.

For the six months ending 28 June 2024, reported cost of sales were €6,332
million, up 11.0% versus 2023. Comparable cost of sales for the same period
were €6,320 million, up 10.9% versus 2023. Cost of sales per unit case
decreased by 2.1% on a comparable and fx-neutral basis, reflecting the impact
of the newly acquired CCBPI operations, partly offset by increased revenue per
unit case driving higher concentrate costs, inflation in manufacturing and tax
increase driven by the Netherlands.

For the six months ending 28 June 2024, reported operating expenses were
€2,354 million, up 9.3% versus 2023.

Comparable operating expenses were €2,212 million for the same period, up
4.8% versus 2023, reflecting the impact of the newly acquired CCBPI
operations, inflation and higher volumes, partially offset by the benefit of
ongoing efficiency programmes and our continuous efforts on discretionary
spend optimisation.

In November 2022, the Group announced a new efficiency programme to be
delivered by the end of 2028. This programme focusses on further supply chain
efficiencies, leveraging global procurement and a more integrated shared
service centre model, all enabled by next generation technology including
digital tools and data and analytics. During the first half of 2024, as part
of this efficiency programme, the Group announced restructuring proposals
resulting in €90 million of operating expenses primarily related to expected
severance payments. This compares to €42 million of restructuring charges
within operating expenses incurred in the six month period ending 30 June
2023, related to various productivity initiatives.

Acquisition and integration related costs of €11 million were recognised
within reported operating expenses for the six months ending 28 June 2024
associated with the acquisition of CCBPI, primarily brokerage and advisory
fees.

Adjusted comparable cost of sales for the six months ending 28 June 2024 were
€6,534 million, up 2.5% versus 2023. Cost of sales per unit case increased
by 2.5% on an adjusted comparable and fx-neutral basis, driven by an increase
in concentrate in line with our incidence model reflecting the improvement in
revenue per unit case. There was also upward pressure on manufacturing costs
and increased tax driven by the Netherlands, partially offset by the mix
effect from the strong growth in the Philippines.

 Supplemental Financial Information - Effective Tax Rate

The effective tax rate was 22% for the six months ended 28 June 2024 and 30
June 2023, respectively, and 24% for the year ended 31 December 2023.

For the six months ending 28 June 2024, the effective tax rate reflects the
impact of having operations outside the UK which are taxed at rates other than
the statutory UK rate of 25%, and adjustments made in respect of prior
periods.

 

We expect our full year 2024 comparable effective tax rate to be approximately
25%.

months ended 28 June 2024, the Group paid a further €12 million of cash
taxes in connection with those proceeds. The cash impacts associated with
those specific events have been included within the Group's net cash flows
from operating activities for the six months ended 28 June 2024 and 30 June
2023, respectively. Given the unusual nature and to allow for better period to
period comparability, our comparable free cash flow measure excludes the cash
impact related to those items.

If the Acquisition had occurred on 1 January 2024, adjusted comparable free
cash flow for the six months ended 28 June 2024 is estimated to approximate
the comparable free cash flow in the table above.

 Principal Risks and Risk Factors

The Group faces a number of risks and uncertainties that may have an adverse
effect on its operations, performance and future prospects and has a robust
risk management programme to assess these and evaluate strategies to manage
them. The principal risks and risk factors in our 2023 Integrated Report on
Form 20-F for the year ended 31 December 2023 ('2023 Integrated Report' pages
68 to 78 and 243 to 251 respectively) continue to represent our risks.

As part of our risk management governance and routines we continuously monitor
the risk landscape and discuss with business leaders risk trends every
quarter, velocity and actions to be taken, as well as scanning for future
risks. Based on that exercise we do not intend to change the principal risk
trends included in our 2023 Integrated Report, but we have identified some
developments this first half of 2024.

Since the publication of the Integrated Report in March, the macro risk
environment remains similar and we believe that the reported key control
mitigations continue to be appropriate and effective. If current geopolitical
tensions escalate, we foresee that freight disruptions, shortages and
sanctions could be the consequences and have a significant impact on global
trade.

We continue to monitor the developments of the war in Ukraine, which has
impacted the supply of raw materials, supplies, finished goods, gas/oil/energy
and increased cyber risks. CCEP has been working to de-risk its supply chain
and put in place plans to secure commodities in particular with our Asian
Pacific suppliers due to geopolitical tensions in the region. We have noticed
a weaker volume performance in Indonesia impacted by the geopolitical
situation in the Middle East. We continue to monitor the developments of the
situation and any other potential impacts. We monitor and assess potential
shifts and changes in regulations and policies as a consequence of the
elections in the EU, GB, US and other geographies relevant for CCEP.

The macroeconomic outlook is still very uncertain and volatile although we
started seeing inflation easing down in major economies like US, UK, Eurozone,
Australia. Central Banks started or are about to start cutting interest rates,
but the timing and the pace of it is very data dependent, which is creating
volatility. Geopolitical problems and elections in major economies also create
uncertainty and keep the volatility high. However, stock markets and financing
environment have been very resilient so far which is an indication of a soft
rather than a hard landing, and we are cautiously optimistic about the second
half of the year since inflation seems to be controlled and growth is still
positive.

Water scarcity has been an issue in this first half of the year, in particular
in France and Spain, where authorities have issued contingency plans. In
addition to strong water management routines, a cross functional team has been
using scenario planning to assess the potential impact. We maintain good
relations with the local authorities based on the credibility of our water
management strategy and the strict discipline our demand planning teams apply
for SKU prioritisation and rationalisation.

At CCEP we are embracing the technological advancements made in recent years
and are increasing our technical footprint through transformation projects and
acquisitions. We have noticed an increase in identity-based attacks through
Social Engineering, Phishing or even AI-driven scams. CCEP has responded with
increased focus on improving our global Training & Awareness program,
increased focus on process- and control harmonisation and continued focus on
technological advancements that might impact CCEP.

We continue to be under pressure from customers and authorities to keep prices
low despite the increase in costs. Our commercial teams continue to work
positively with customers to mitigate this risk.

When it comes to our products, discussions on potential taxes to soft drinks
and plastic continue in different countries across our territories including
Spain, France, and Indonesia. Based on our experience we engage in open and
collaborative discussions with authorities and other stakeholders. We are also
evaluating and responding appropriately to recent reports in relation to
sweeteners, considering the risk of regulation, litigation and reputational
damage, as well as the developments in regard to the implementation of Deposit
Return Systems and waste collection solutions.

Accordingly, the information provided about our principal risks and risk
factors in the table below and in the Principal Risks and Risk Factors in our
2023 Integrated Report, and any or all of the Principal Risks and Risk Factors
contained therein may be exacerbated by developments in the factors identified
above and in our Forward-Looking Statements set out on page 8 of this interim
management report.

The risks described in this report and in our 2023 Integrated Report are not
the only risks facing the Group. Additional risks and uncertainties not
currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial may also
adversely affect our business, financial condition or future results.

 Related Parties

Related party disclosures are presented in Note 12 of the Notes to the
condensed consolidated interim financial statements contained in this interim
management report.

 Going Concern

As part of the Directors' consideration of the appropriateness of adopting the
going concern basis in preparing the condensed consolidated interim financial
statements, the Directors have considered the Group's financial performance in
the period and have taken into account its current cash position and its
access to a €1.8 billion undrawn committed credit facility. Further, the
Directors have considered the current cash flow forecast, including a downside
stress test, which supports the Group's ability to continue to generate cash
flows during the next 12 months.

On this basis, the Directors have a reasonable expectation that the Group has
adequate resources to continue in operational existence for a period of 12
months from the date of signing these financial statements. Accordingly, the
condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared on a
going concern basis and the Directors do not believe there are any material
uncertainties to disclose in relation to the Group's ability to continue as a
going concern.

 

 Responsibility Statement

The Directors of the Company confirm that to the best of their knowledge:

•       The condensed consolidated interim financial statements for
the six months ended 28 June 2024 have been prepared in accordance with
International Accounting Standard 34, "Interim Financial Reporting" as adopted
by the European Union, International Accounting Standard 34, "Interim
Financial Reporting", as issued by the International Accounting Standards
Board, UK adopted International Accounting Standard 34 "Interim Financial
Reporting" and the Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules of the United
Kingdom's Financial Conduct Authority (DTR).

•       The interim management report includes a fair review of the
information required by the DTR 4.2.7 R and DTR 4.2.8 R as follows:

•       DTR 4.2.7 R: (1) an indication of important events that have
occurred during the first six months of the financial year, and their impact
on the condensed set of financial statements, and (2) a description of the
principal risks and uncertainties for the remaining six months of the
financial year; and

•       DTR 4.2.8 R: (1) related parties transactions that have taken
place in the first six months of the current financial year and that have
materially affected the financial position or the performance of the Group
during that period, and (2) any changes in the related parties transactions
described in the last annual report that could have a material effect on the
financial position or performance of the Group in the first six months of the
current financial year.

INDEPENDENT REVIEW REPORT TO COCA-COLA EUROPACIFIC PARTNERS PLC

Conclusion

We have been engaged by the Company to review the condensed set of financial
statements in the half-yearly financial report for the six months ended 28
June 2024 which comprises the Condensed Consolidated Interim Income Statement,
Condensed Consolidated Interim Statement of Comprehensive Income, Condensed
Consolidated Interim Statement of Financial Position, Condensed Consolidated
Interim Statement of Cash Flows, Condensed Consolidated Interim Statement of
Changes in Equity and the related explanatory notes 1 - 15. We have read the
other information contained in the half yearly financial report and considered
whether it contains any apparent misstatements or material inconsistencies
with the information in the condensed set of financial statements.

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to
believe that the condensed set of financial statements in the half-yearly
financial report for the six months ended 28 June 2024 is not prepared, in all
material respects, in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34,
"Interim Financial Reporting", as issued by the International Accounting
Standards Board, International Accounting Standard 34, "Interim Financial
Reporting" as issued by the European Union, U.K. adopted International
Accounting Standard 34, "Interim Financial Reporting" and the Disclosure
Guidance and Transparency Rules of the United Kingdom's Financial Conduct
Authority.

 

Basis for Conclusion

We conducted our review in accordance with International Standard on Review
Engagements 2410 (UK) "Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by
the Independent Auditor of the Entity" (ISRE) issued by the Financial
Reporting Council. A review of interim financial information consists of
making enquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and
accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A
review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance
with International Standards on Auditing (UK) and consequently does not enable
us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters
that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit
opinion.

As disclosed in note 1, the annual financial statements of the Group are
prepared in accordance with U.K. adopted International Accounting Standards,
International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") as adopted by the
European Union and International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by
the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB"). The condensed set of
financial statements included in this half-yearly financial report has been
prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34, "Interim
Financial Reporting", as issued by the International Accounting Standards
Board, International Accounting Standard 34, Interim Financial Reporting" as
issued by the European Union, and U.K. adopted International Accounting
Standard 34, "Interim Financial Reporting".

Conclusions Relating to Going Concern

Based on our review procedures, which are less extensive than those performed
in an audit as described in the Basis for Conclusion section of this report,
nothing has come to our attention to suggest that management have
inappropriately adopted the going concern basis of accounting or that
management have identified material uncertainties relating to going concern
that are not appropriately disclosed.

This conclusion is based on the review procedures performed in accordance with
this ISRE, however future events or conditions may cause the entity to cease
to continue as a going concern.

Responsibilities of the directors

The directors are responsible for preparing the half-yearly financial report
in accordance with the Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules of the
United Kingdom's Financial Conduct Authority.

In preparing the half-yearly financial report, the directors are responsible
for assessing the company's ability to continue as a going concern,
disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the
going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to
liquidate the company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative
but to do so.

Auditor's Responsibilities for the review of the financial information

In reviewing the half-yearly report, we are responsible for expressing to the
Company a conclusion on the condensed set of financial statements in the
half-yearly financial report. Our conclusion, including our Conclusions
Relating to Going Concern, are based on procedures that are less extensive
than audit procedures, as described in the Basis for Conclusion paragraph of
this report.

Use of our report

This report is made solely to the company in accordance with guidance
contained in International Standard on Review Engagements 2410 (UK) "Review of
Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the
Entity" issued by the Financial Reporting Council. To the fullest extent
permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other
than the company, for our work, for this report, or for the conclusions we
have formed.

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements

Note 1

GENERAL INFORMATION AND BASIS OF PREPARATION

Coca-Cola Europacific Partners plc (the Company) and its subsidiaries
(together CCEP, or the Group) are a leading consumer goods group in Western
Europe and the Asia Pacific region, making, selling and distributing an
extensive range of primarily non-alcoholic ready to drink beverages.

On 23 February 2024, the Group together with Aboitiz Equity Ventures Inc.
(AEV) jointly acquired 100% of Coca-Cola Beverages Philippines, Inc. (CCBPI)
(the Acquisition), a wholly owned subsidiary of The Coca-Cola Company (TCCC).
Refer to Note 2 for further details about the acquisition of CCBPI.

The Company has ordinary shares with a nominal value of €0.01 per share
(Shares). CCEP is a public company limited by shares, incorporated under the
laws of England and Wales with the registered number in England of 9717350.
The Group's Shares are listed and traded on Euronext Amsterdam, the NASDAQ
Global Select Market, London Stock Exchange and on the Spanish Stock
Exchanges. The address of the Company's registered office is Pemberton House,
Bakers Road, Uxbridge, UB8 1EZ, United Kingdom.

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements do not constitute
statutory accounts as defined by Section 434 of the Companies Act 2006 (the
Act). They have been reviewed but not audited by the Group's auditor. The
statutory accounts for the Company for the year ended 31 December 2023, which
were prepared in accordance with U.K. adopted International Accounting
Standards, International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by
the European Union and International Financial Reporting Standards as issued
by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), have been delivered to
the Registrar of Companies for England and Wales. The auditor's opinion on
those accounts was unqualified and did not contain a statement made under
section 498 (2) or 498 (3) of the Companies Act 2006.

Basis of Preparation and Accounting Policies

The condensed consolidated interim financial statements of the Group have been
prepared in accordance with the U.K. adopted International Accounting Standard
34, "Interim Financial Reporting" and the Disclosure Guidance and Transparency
Rules of the United Kingdom's Financial Conduct Authority, the International
Accounting Standard 34, "Interim Financial Reporting" as adopted by the
European Union, the International Accounting Standard 34, "Interim Financial
Reporting" as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board and
should be read in conjunction with our 2023 consolidated financial statements.
The annual financial statements of the Group for the year ended 31 December
2024 will be prepared in accordance with U.K. adopted International Accounting
Standards, International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by
the European Union and International Financial Reporting Standards as issued
by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB).

The accounting policies applied in these interim condensed consolidated
financial statements are consistent with those followed in the preparation of
the Group's consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended 31
December 2023. The Group has not early adopted any amendments to accounting
standards that have been issued but are not yet effective. The policy for
recognising income taxes in the interim period is consistent with that applied
in previous interim periods and is described in Note 13.

Several amendments apply for the first time in 2024, but do not have a
material impact on the condensed consolidated interim financial statements of
the Group.

The condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared on
a going concern basis (refer to the "Going Concern" paragraph on page 29).

Reporting periods

Results are presented for the interim period from 1 January 2024 to 28 June
2024.

The Group's financial year ends on 31 December. For half-yearly reporting
convenience, the first six month period closes on the Friday closest to the
end of the interim calendar period. There is no change in selling days between
the six months ended 28 June 2024 versus the six months ended 30 June 2023,
and there will be two more selling days in the second six months of 2024
versus the second six months of 2023 (based upon a standard five-day selling
week).

The following table summarises the number of selling days, for the half/full
years ended 31 December 2024 and 31 December 2023 (based on a standard
five-day selling week):

             Half year      Full year
 2024        130            262
 2023        130            260
 Change      -              2

Comparability

Operating results for the first half of 2024 may not be indicative of the
results expected for the year ended 31 December 2024 as sales of the Group's
products are seasonal. In Europe, the second and third quarters typically
account for higher unit sales of the Group's products than the first and
fourth quarters. In the Group's Asia Pacific territories, the fourth quarter
would typically reflect higher sales volumes in the year. The seasonality of
the Group's sales volume, combined with the accounting for fixed costs such as
depreciation, amortisation, rent and interest expense, impacts the Group's
results for the first half of the year. Additionally, year over year shifts in
holidays, selling days and weather patterns can impact the Group's results on
an annual or half yearly basis.

Exchange rates

The Group's reporting currency is the Euro. CCEP translates the income
statements of non-Euro functional currency subsidiary operations to the Euro
at average exchange rates and the balance sheets at the closing exchange rate
as at the end of the period.

The principal exchange rates used for translation purposes in respect of one
Euro were:

BUSINESS COMBINATIONS

In November 2023, the Group together with Aboitiz Equity Ventures Inc. (AEV)
entered into a definitive agreement with The Coca-Cola Company (TCCC) to
jointly acquire 100% of CCBPI, a wholly owned subsidiary of TCCC.

 

The Acquisition was effected through the establishment of a special purpose
vehicle, CCEP Aboitiz Beverages Philippines, Inc. (CABPI), which is owned and
funded 60% by CCEP and 40% by AEV, commensurate with the effective 60:40
ownership structure of CCBPI.

 

On 23 February 2024, CABPI acquired 100% of the beneficial ownership of
Coca-Cola Beverages Philippines, Inc. (CCBPI) for a total consideration of
US$1.68 billion (€1.55 billion), all of which was settled in cash upon
completion. CABPI is determined to have economic substance and is identified
as the accounting acquirer of CCBPI.

 

CCBPI is the authorised bottler and distributor of The Coca-Cola Company's
(TCCC) beverage brands in the Philippines. The Acquisition is a further step
for the Group to create a more diverse footprint within its existing
Australia, Pacific and Indonesia business segment. The transaction is aligned
with the Group's aim of driving sustainable growth through diversification and
building scale.

The transaction is being accounted for under IFRS 3, "Business Combinations",
using the acquisition method. The initial accounting for the Acquisition is
provisional at the end of the current reporting period. The Group is in a
process of finalising the fair values for certain acquired assets, and is
still gathering information about certain assumed liabilities based on facts
that existed as at the date of acquisition. Accordingly, the Group has
recognised provisional amounts for these items. During the measurement period,
which will not extend beyond 22 February 2025, the Group will adjust the
provisional amounts recognised at the acquisition date to reflect new
information obtained about facts and circumstances that existed as at the
acquisition date that, if known, would have affected the measurement of the
amounts recognised as at that date.

 

The following table details the Euro equivalent consideration and provisional
fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed:

                                              Total

 Fair value of consideration                               1,547

 

Intangible assets include both indefinite life and finite life intangible
assets. Indefinite life intangible assets consist of the bottling agreement
with TCCC (€440 million), which provide the Company with the exclusive
rights to prepare, package, distribute and sell TCCC branded products in the
territories in which it operates. Finite life intangible assets are comprised
primarily of customer relationships.

The bottling agreement with TCCC and customer relationships have been
provisionally valued using a multi-period excess earnings model, whereby the
value of a specific intangible asset is estimated from the excess earnings
after fair returns on all other assets employed have been deducted from the
business's after-tax operating earnings.

Goodwill of €270 million has been recognised in connection with the
Acquisition, representing the excess of consideration transferred over the
provisional fair values of the net identifiable assets acquired.

The goodwill is attributable to new growth opportunities, workforce and
synergies of the combined business operations, and it is not expected to be
deductible for tax purposes.

Property, plant and equipment has been provisionally valued using a variety of
valuation techniques depending on the local market and considering the highest
and best use of each asset. These techniques include capitalisation of
comparable net market income, depreciated replacement cost and sales
comparison approach. Included within Property, plant and equipment are right
of use assets which have been provisionally valued at €9 million. A
corresponding lease liability of €10 million is included within Borrowings.

The fair value of acquired trade accounts receivable, net is €75 million.
The gross contractual amount related to these receivables is €77 million,
of which €2 million is expected to be uncollectible.

From acquisition, CCBPI contributed revenue of €702 million and profit
before tax of €41 million to the Group for the period to 28 June 2024. If
the Acquisition had taken place at the beginning of the year, adjusted
comparable revenue and profit before tax for CCEP for the six months ended 28
June 2024 would have been €970 million and €48 million, respectively.

Deal and integration costs of €11 million are included in administrative
expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Interim Income Statement for the six
months ended 28 June 2024. Cash payments for deal and integration costs are
included in operating cash flows in the Condensed Consolidated Interim
Statement of Cash Flows.

OPERATING SEGMENTS

Description of segments and principal activities

Following the acquisition of CCBPI, the Group reevaluated its segment
reporting under IFRS 8, "Operating Segments". The Group continues to derive
its revenues through a single business activity, which is making, selling and
distributing an extensive range of primarily non-alcoholic ready to drink
beverages. The acquisition of CCBPI has broadened the Group's geographic
footprint which now includes the Philippines, within its existing API business
segment, from now on renamed APS (Australia, Pacific & South East Asia).
The Group's Board continues to be its Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM),
which allocates resources and evaluates performance of its operating segments
based on volume, revenue and comparable operating profit. Comparable operating
profit excludes items impacting the comparability of period over period
financial performance.

The following table provides a reconciliation between reportable segment
operating profit and consolidated profit before tax:

Note 4

EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing profit after taxes by the
weighted average number of Shares in issue and outstanding during the period.
Diluted earnings per share is calculated in a similar manner, but includes the
effect of dilutive securities, principally share options, restricted stock
units and performance share units. Share-based payment awards that are
contingently issuable upon the achievement of specified market and/or
performance conditions are included in the diluted earnings per share
calculation based on the number of Shares that would be issuable if the end of
the period was the end of the contingency period.

The following table summarises basic and diluted earnings per share
calculations for the periods presented:

                                                                           Six Months Ended

During the first half of 2024, the Group recognized €10 million of
impairment in relation to the Feral brand. The Group is in the process of
selling the brand, which has been classified as an asset held for sale in the
Group's condensed consolidated interim statement of financial position as of
28 June 2024. The sale is expected to be consummated before the end of the
year.

As part of its half year impairment indicators review, the Group reassessed
the value in use assumptions for the Indonesia CGU. The Group estimates that a
1.1% reduction in the terminal growth rate or a 0.8% increase in the discount
rate in this CGU, each in isolation, would eliminate existing headroom.

Note 7

INVESTMENT PROPERTY

Investment property consists of land and buildings held primarily for earning
rental income, capital appreciation, or both. These properties are not used by
the Group in the ordinary course of business. The Group applies the cost model
for measuring investment property. Under the cost model, investment properties
are initially recognized at cost. Subsequently, they are depreciated on a
straight-line basis over their useful life (consistent with owner-occupied
property).

 

The following table summarises the movement in net book value for investment
property during the six months ended 28 June 2024:

                                                   Total
                                                   € million

 Net book value as at 28 June 2024                                   76

 

As of 28 June 2024, and 31 December 2023, investment property values were
€76 million and nil, respectively. The increase is primarily due to the
properties acquired as part of the CCBPI business combination transaction
(€46 million) and the transfer of some properties in APS and Great Britain
from Property, plant & equipment to Investment property (€33 million).

No impairments were recognized during the first half of 2024.

Note 8

ASSETS HELD FOR SALE

Assets classified as held for sale as at 28 June 2024 and 31 December 2023
were €43 million and €22 million, respectively. These assets primarily
consist of properties expected to be sold in the near future.

Note 9

FAIR VALUES AND FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

Fair Value Measurements

All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in
the condensed consolidated interim financial statements are categorised in the
fair value hierarchy as described in our 2023 consolidated financial
statements.

The fair values of the Group's cash and cash equivalents, short term
investments, trade accounts receivable, amounts receivable from related
parties, trade and other payables, and amounts payable to related parties
approximate their carrying amounts due to their short-term nature.

The fair values of the Group's borrowings are estimated based on borrowings
with similar maturities and credit quality and current market interest rates.
These are categorised in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy as the Group uses
certain pricing models and quoted prices for similar liabilities in active
markets in assessing their fair values. The total fair value of borrowings as
at 28 June 2024 and 31 December 2023, was €11.2 billion and €10.6 billion,
respectively. This compared to the carrying value of total borrowings as at 28
June 2024 and 31 December 2023 of €12.2 billion and €11.4 billion,
respectively. Refer to Note 10 for further details regarding the Group's
borrowings.

The Group's derivative assets and liabilities are carried at fair value, which
is determined using a variety of valuation techniques, depending on the
specific characteristics of the hedging instrument taking into account credit
risk. The fair value of our derivative contracts (including forwards, options,
cross-currency swaps and interest rate swaps) is determined using standard
valuation models. The significant inputs used in these models are readily
available in public markets or can be derived from observable market
transactions and, therefore, the derivative contracts have been classified as
Level 2. Inputs used in these standard valuation models include the applicable
spot, forward, and discount rates. The standard valuation model for the option
contracts also includes implied volatility, which is specific to individual
options and is based on rates quoted from a widely used third-party resource.
As at 28 June 2024 and 31 December 2023, the total value of derivative assets
was €178 million and €261 million, respectively. As at 28 June 2024 and 31
December 2023, the total value of derivative liabilities was €254 million
and €268 million, respectively. During the period, €35 million of gains
have been recorded within Other Comprehensive Income, primarily related to
changes in fair value of commodity hedging instruments.

For assets and liabilities that are recognised in the condensed consolidated
interim financial statements on a recurring basis, the Group determines
whether transfers have occurred between levels in the hierarchy by
re-assessing categorisation at the end of each reporting period. There have
been no transfers between levels during the periods presented.

Financial Instruments Risk Management Objectives and Policies

The Group's activities expose it to several financial risks including market
risk, credit risk, and liquidity risk. Financial risk activities are governed
by appropriate policies and procedures to minimise the uncertainties these
risks create over the Group's future cash flows. Such policies are developed
and approved by the Group's Treasury and Commodities Risk Committee through
the authority provided to it by the Group's Board of Directors. There have
been no changes in the risk management policies since the year end.

Note 13

TAXES

Income Tax expense

Taxes on income in interim periods are accrued using the tax rate that would
be applicable to the expected total annual profit or loss.

The effective tax rate (ETR) was 22% for the six months ended 28 June 2024 and
30 June 2023, respectively, and 24% for the year ended 31 December 2023. The
ETR has been calculated by applying the weighted average annual ETR, excluding
discrete items, of 27% and 25% to the profit before tax for the six months
ended 28 June 2024 and 30 June 2023, respectively.

The ETR of 22% which is lower than statutory UK rate of 25% reflects the
impact of having operations outside the UK which are taxed at rates other than
the statutory UK rate and adjustments made in respect of prior periods.

The following table summarises the major components of income tax expense for
the periods presented:

                                                                        28 June 2024                                  30 June 2023

Tax Provisions

The Group is routinely under audit by tax authorities in the ordinary course
of business. Due to their nature, such proceedings and tax matters involve
inherent uncertainties including, but not limited to, court rulings,
settlements between affected parties and/or governmental actions. The
probability of outcome is assessed and accrued as a liability and/or
disclosed, as appropriate. The Group maintains provisions for uncertainty
related to these tax matters that it believes appropriately reflect its risk.
As at 28 June 2024, €240 million (31 December 2023: €175 million) of
these provisions is included in current tax liabilities and the remainder is
included in non-current tax liabilities.

The Group reviews the adequacy of these provisions at the end of each
reporting period and adjusts them based on changing facts and circumstances.
Due to the uncertainty associated with tax matters, it is possible that at
some future date, liabilities resulting from audits or litigation could vary
significantly from the Group's provisions. When an uncertain tax liability is
regarded as probable, it is measured on the basis of the Group's best
estimate.

The Group has received tax assessments in certain jurisdictions for potential
tax related to the Group's purchases of concentrate. The value of the Group's
concentrate purchases is significant, and therefore, the tax assessments are
substantial. The Group strongly believes the application of tax has no
technical merit based on applicable tax law, and its tax position would be
sustained. Accordingly, the Group has not recorded a tax liability for these
assessments and is vigorously defending its position against these
assessments.

Global Minimum Top-Up Tax

On 12 May 2023, the International Accounting Standards Board ("the IASB")
issued International Tax Reform - Pillar Two Model Rules - Amendments to IAS
12 ("the Amendments"). The Amendments introduce a mandatory temporary
exception from the recognition and disclosure of deferred taxes arising from
the implementation of the OECD's Pillar Two Model Rules.

Pillar Two legislation was enacted in the UK on 11 July 2023, under Finance
(No 2) Act 2023, and was effective from 1 January 2024.

The Group has applied the exception under the IAS 12 amendment to recognising
and disclosing information about deferred tax assets and liabilities related
to top-up tax in preparing its condensed consolidated interim financial
statements as of the six-month period ended 28 June 2024.

The Group is in scope of the Pillar Two tax legislation and expects to be
subject to top-up tax in relation to its operations in a few countries. Based
on a preliminary assessment, no material liability has been recognised in
these financial statements.
