Damian Gammell, Chief Executive Officer, said:

"2025 continues to be a solid year for CCEP, reflecting our great brands,
great people, great execution and strong relationships with our brand partners
and customers. We've delivered another quarter of volume growth in Europe,
despite softer consumer demand. We continue to drive underlying growth in APS,
excluding portfolio changes in Australia, and despite macro driven challenges
in Indonesia.

"We're leading the way in creating value for our customers and growing share
ahead of the market, delivering solid gains in revenue per unit case through
effective revenue and margin growth management, balancing premiumisation with
affordability.

 

"Although the global macroeconomic environment remains volatile, we remain
resilient, operating in attractive and growing categories. We have strong
plans for the rest of the year and beyond, including exciting collaborations
with the English Premier League and Star Wars.

 

"Our performance, coupled with our continued focus on productivity, is driving
strong and profitable cash generation, supporting record investment in future
growth, a growing dividend and ongoing share buybacks. We're pleased to
reaffirm our full-year guidance and remain confident we have the right
strategy, done sustainably, to deliver on our mid-term growth objectives."

 

 

Comparable volume movements adjust for the impact of selling day movements,
with two fewer selling days in Q1'25 versus Q1'24

  FBN( 8 )

•       Low single-digit volume increase in Q3 driven by the Nordics;
France, Benelux & Netherlands broadly flat.

•       Volumes driven by growth in Coca-Cola Zero Sugar, Sprite (new
listings in France) & Monster, which continues to outperform across all
markets supported by innovation & new listings in the Netherlands;
offsetting impact of French sugar tax increase in March.

•       YTD revenue/UC( 10 ) growth reflects headline price increases,
positive pack mix & brand mix from growth of Energy.

 

Germany

•       Low single-digit volume decline in Q3 with strong growth of
Coca-Cola Zero & Monster more than offset by decline in Coca-Cola Original
Taste & Fanta.

•       Volume decline driven by softer consumer demand with deeper
focus on affordability & value for money. Q3 AFH volumes down mid
single-digit.

•       YTD revenue/UC( 10 ) growth driven by headline price increase,
supported by positive pack mix from growth of cans & decline in
large PET.

 

Great Britain

•       Mid single-digit volume increase in Q3 driven by growth in
Home & AFH, supported by better weather during key summer months.

•       Double-digit volume increase in Monster, Sprite & Dr.
Pepper, with overall growth in Coca-Cola TM driven by growth in Zero Sugar
& Diet Coke supported by great activation & promo activity.

•       Strong performance in ARTD driven by growth of multipacks in
Home channel.

•       YTD revenue/UC( 10 ) growth reflects headline price increase
& positive brand mix supported by the growth of Monster.

 

Iberia( 9 )

•       Volume in Q3 broadly flat with growth in Portugal offsetting
small decline in Spain.

•       Fuze Tea strengthening leadership position in RTD tea category
as transition from Nestea progresses ahead of plan. Excluding RTD tea, total
volumes up low single-digit.

•       Continued strong growth in Monster & in Sports driven by
Aquarius. Body Armor introduced towards end of Q3 in Spain.

•       YTD revenue/UC( 10 ) growth driven by headline price increase.

 

Australia / Pacific( 11 )

•       Low single-digit volume increase in Q3 driven by growth in PNG
& New Zealand, more than offsetting the impact of exit of Suntory alcohol
distribution in Australia. Excluding alcohol, volumes & revenue up mid
& high single-digits respectively.

•       New multi-year agreement for distribution of Bacardi premium
spirits & ARTD brands in Australia to start in Q4'25.

•       Strong growth in Coca-Cola Zero Sugar & continued

Ultra Vice Guava, alongside continued growth in original Ultra White.

•       Lower Q3 revenue/UC( 10 ) driven by Suntory exit, with YTD

continued growth of mini cans up around 10%.

 

Southeast Asia( 4 , 12 )

•       Q3 volumes in the Philippines were broadly flat, reflecting
the impact of typhoon related flooding which significantly disrupted
distribution during July & August. Excluding this impact, volumes were
broadly in-line with our expectations, with growth in September supported by a
good start for Lift & Royal Tru Strawberry, both launched during Q3.

•       The Q3 rate of decline in Indonesia eased versus Q2
(reflecting an improved performance in sparkling), though volumes continued to
reflect a weaker consumer & macroeconomic backdrop.

•       Revenue/UC( 10 ) growth reflects headline price increases in
the Philippines implemented during Q4 last year.

 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.

 

 

 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 in 2024 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 2024 of the period presented relating to transaction accounting
adjustments. No cost savings or synergies were contemplated in these
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
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 unaudited consolidated
financial statements.

 

"Adjusted" includes the results of CCEP as if the CCBPI acquisition had
occurred at the beginning of 2024, including 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,
such as restructuring charges. 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.

 

''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.
