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, 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. Forward-looking statements are based upon
various assumptions as well as 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.

Factors that, in CCEP's view, could cause such actual results to differ
materially from forward looking statements include, but are not limited to,
those set forth in the "Risk Factors" section of CCEP's 2024 Annual Report on
Form 20-F filed with the SEC on 21 March 2025 and subsequent filings,
including, but not limited to: changes in the marketplace; changes in
relationships with large customers; adverse weather conditions; importation of
other bottlers' products into our territories; deterioration of global and
local economic and political conditions; uncertainty and volatility from the
impact and extent of actual and promised tariff adjustments; increases in
costs of raw materials; changes in interest rates or debt rating;
deterioration in political unity within the European Union; defaults of or
failures by counterparty financial institutions; changes in tax law in
countries in which we operate; additional levies of taxes, including tariff
adjustments; legal changes in our status; waste and pollution, health concerns
perceptions, and recycling matters related to packaging; global or regional
catastrophic events; cyberattacks against us or our customers or suppliers;
technology failures; initiatives to realise cost savings; calculating
infrastructure investment; executing on our acquisition strategy; costs,
limitations of supplies, and quality of raw materials; maintenance of brand
image and product quality; managing workplace health, safety and security;
water scarcity and regulations; climate change and legal and regulatory
responses thereto; other legal, regulatory and compliance considerations;
anti-corruption laws, regulations, and sanction programmes; legal claims
against suppliers; litigation and legal proceedings against us; attracting,
retaining and motivating employees; our relationship with TCCC and other
franchisors; and differing views among our shareholders.

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, 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. 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.
