Note Regarding the Presentation of Alternative Performance Measures |
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. Refer to pages 14-17.
"Comparable’’ is defined as results excluding items impacting comparability, which include restructuring charges, income arising from the ownership of certain mineral rights in Australia, gain on sale of sub-strata and associated mineral rights in Australia, net impact related to European flooding, gains on the sale of property, accelerated amortisation charges, expenses related to legal provisions, impact of a defined benefit plan amendment arising from legislative changes in respect of the minimum retirement age and acquisition and integration related costs. Comparable volume is also adjusted for selling days.
‘‘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.
‘‘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.
‘‘Dividend payout ratio’’ is defined as dividends as a proportion of comparable profit after tax.
Unless otherwise stated, percent amounts are rounded to the nearest 0.5%.

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 2022 Annual Report on Form 20-F filed with the SEC on 17 March 2023 and as updated and supplemented with the additional information set forth in the “Principal Risks and Risk Factors” section of the H1 2023 Half-year Report filed with the SEC on 2 August 2023;
2. risks and uncertainties relating to the global supply chain and distribution, 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 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;
5. 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
6. 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.

Supplemental Financial Information - Effective Tax Rate |
The reported effective tax rate was 24% and 22% for the years ended 31 December 2023 and 31 December 2022, respectively.
The increase in the reported effective tax rate to 24% in 2023 (2022: 22%) is largely due to the increase in the UK statutory tax rate to a weighted average of 23.5% and the review of uncertain tax positions.
The comparable effective tax rate was 24% and 22% for the years ended 31 December 2023 and 31 December 2022, respectively.

Discussions with U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) |
During 2023, the Company received written correspondence from the staff (the “Staff”) of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) regarding their review of CCEP’s Annual Report (Form 20-F) for the year ended 31 December 2022. As of 23 February 2024, there is an open comment concerning the Company’s long-standing accounting policy and disclosures related to the treatment of the TCCC bottling rights as indefinite-lived intangible assets. As of 31 December 2022, the Company has indefinite-lived intangible assets of €11,874 million related to the TCCC bottling arrangements that were recognised as a result of business combinations and valued on perpetual cash flows basis. The accounting policy is disclosed in the notes to the 2022 Consolidated Financial Statements, more specifically Note 7 (“Intangible assets and goodwill”) and Note 3 (“Significant judgements and estimates”). The Company has responded to the comments and will continue engaging with the Staff if further comments are raised.
If the Company’s accounting policy was reevaluated to limit the useful economic life of the intangible assets to the remaining contractual terms of the bottler’s agreements with TCCC, the Company’s historical and current consolidated financial statements would need to be adjusted to reduce the fair value of the intangible assets and related deferred tax liabilities, with an equivalent increase in goodwill effective as of the acquisition dates. Further, amortisation expense on the intangible assets would be recognised over the remaining contractual life of the agreements in place at acquisition. All resulting balance sheet and income statement effects would be non-cash and would not impact CCEP’s generation and use of distributable profits.
CCEP’s unaudited consolidated results contained in this release were prepared in accordance with its existing accounting policies and judgments, which the Company believes are appropriate and consistent with those applied during the preparation of prior period audited financial statements.
