Notes to the Financial Statements
1 Accounting Policies
Basis of Preparation
The financial information comprises the unaudited results for the six months
ended 31 March 2015 and 31 March 2014, together with the audited results for
the year ended 30 September 2014.
The information shown for the year ended 30 September 2014 does not constitute
statutory accounts within the meaning of section 434 of the Companies Act
2006, and is an abridged version of the Group's published financial statements
for that year. The Auditors' Report on those statements was unqualified and
did not contain any statements under section 498 of the Companies Act 2006.
The financial statements for the year ended 30 September 2014 were approved by
the Board of Directors on 4 November 2014 and filed with the Registrar of
Companies.
This condensed set of financial statements for the six months ended 31 March
2015 has been prepared in accordance with the Disclosure and Transparency
Rules of the Financial Conduct Authority and with IAS 34 Interim Financial
Reporting as adopted by the European Union. The condensed set of financial
statements for the six months ended 31 March 2015 should be read in
conjunction with the annual financial statements for the year ended 30
September 2014 which have been prepared in accordance with International
Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) as adopted by the European Union.
Except as described below, the Group's principal accounting policies used in
preparing this information are as stated in the financial statements for the
year ended 30 September 2014, which are available on our website
www.imperial-tobacco.com .
New Accounting Standards and Interpretations
The following standards became effective for the current reporting period:
IFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements
IFRS 11 Joint Arrangements
IFRS 12 Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities
Only the application of IFRS 11 had a material effect on the net assets or
results of the Group. The impact on the Group's results and net assets is as
follows:

The effect in the six months ended 31 March 2015 has been to reduce revenue
and operating profit by £82 million and £26 million respectively, but increase
share of profit of investments accounted for using the equity method by £17
million. Profit attributable to owners of the parent and earnings per share
are unaffected by this change.
Other new standards
Other standards and interpretations issued, but not yet effective, are not
expected to have a material effect on the Group's net assets or results.
2 Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgements
The Group makes estimates and judgements regarding the future. Estimates and
judgements are continually evaluated based on historical experience, and other
factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be
reasonable under the circumstances.
In the future, actual experience may deviate from these estimates and
judgements. The estimates and judgements that have a significant risk of
causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and
liabilities within the current financial year are discussed in the financial
statements for the year ended 30 September 2014.

On 28 November 2014 a staged reduction from 30% to 25% in the effective rate
applicable to Spanish profits was announced. This rate change resulted in a
deferred tax credit of £33 million in respect of acquired intangibles being
recognised in the consolidated income statement for the six months ended 31
March 2015. This has been excluded from our adjusted tax charge in line with
our existing policy regarding the treatment of deferred tax on acquired
intangibles.

9 Intangible Assets
Following the application of IFRS 11, £512 million of Group intangibles have
been reclassified as share of investments accounted for using the equity
method as at 31 March 2014. £525 million of Group intangibles have been
reclassified as share of investments accounted for using the equity method as
at 30 September 2014.
At the 2014 year end the impairment test for the Drive Growth CGU grouping
that includes our markets in Russia, Italy and Japan indicated headroom of
£240 million and that an impairment would result in the event of relatively
small changes in exchange rate, or in an individual assumption or assumptions.
In view of this sensitivity and recent volatility in the Rouble exchange rates
and increased discount rates, we have tested the appropriateness of the
carrying value of the Drive Growth CGU grouping's intangible assets at 31
March 2015. In doing so, we have revisited our cash flow forecasts and other
factors such as, growth rates, discount rates and other appropriate
assumptions. In spite of the difficult macroeconomic climate, the CGU grouping
is performing in line with latest business plan assumptions. Taking account of
all of these factors, we have concluded that the carrying value for the Drive
Growth CGU grouping included in our 31 March 2015 balance sheet is
appropriate. Our test indicated headroom of £40 million and remains sensitive
to adverse movements in exchange rates, or in any individual assumption or
assumptions. We will conduct a further review in the second half of the year
in line with our normal impairment review cycle.
