LONDON, 10 November 2016 - Coca-Cola European Partners plc (CCEP) (ticker symbol: CCE) today announces its interim results for the third-quarter ended 30 September 2016, and affirms full-year 2016 outlook. |

• | Third-quarter reported revenue totaled €3.0 billion. Pro forma comparable revenue was €3.0 billion, flat vs. prior year, or up 3.5 per cent on a pro forma comparable and fx-neutral basis. Volume increased 3.5 per cent on a pro forma basis. |

• | CCEP affirms its full-year guidance for 2016, including flat revenue growth, modest mid-single-digit operating profit growth, and diluted earnings per share growth in a mid-teen range, all on a pro forma comparable and fx-neutral basis. After including an expected negative currency impact of approximately 4.5 per cent, pro forma comparable diluted earnings per share is expected in a range of €1.86 to €1.90. |
• | CCEP remains on track to achieve pre-tax savings of €315 million to €340 million through synergies by mid-2019. |
• | Separately today, CCEP announced Damian Gammell will succeed John F. Brock as chief executive officer. |
“This marks the first full quarter of operation for CCEP since our merger, and we are encouraged by the return to growth in our third-quarter results,” said John F. Brock, chief executive officer. “These results support the opportunities we see for growth and our long-term outlook for CCEP.
“We remain focused on successfully integrating the territories of Coca-Cola European Partners, enhancing customer service, realising the synergies we have communicated, and ensuring we capture the growth opportunities in the market,” Mr. Brock said. “This will enable us to better meet the needs of our customers, serve our communities effectively, and importantly, drive shareowner value.”
Note Regarding the Presentation of Financial Information
Unless otherwise noted, the financial information included in this release is provided on a pro forma comparable basis to allow investors to better analyse CCEP’s business performance and allow for greater comparability.

(“CCE”), Coca-Cola Erfrischungsgetränke GmbH (“Germany”, “CCEG”) and Coca-Cola Iberian Partners S.A.U. (“Iberia”, “CCIP”) and acquisition accounting adjustments for the full periods presented. We have also excluded items affecting the comparability of year-over-year financial performance, including merger and integration costs, restructuring costs, the out-of-period mark-to-market impact of hedges and the inventory step-up related to acquisition accounting. See the Supplementary Financial Information for a full reconciliation of our reported results to our pro forma comparable results.

Operational Review | ||||
“Our return to growth reflects the impact of brand and package innovations, strong in-market execution, improving operating effectiveness, and the benefits of favourable weather,” said Damian Gammell, chief operating officer. “Going forward, we recognise that the soft consumer environment that has affected our business is still present.
“In this environment, we are focused on three key areas: delivering against our objectives for 2016, partnering with The Coca-Cola Company to drive long-term growth, and successfully delivering our synergy objectives, with a pretax goal of €315 million to €340 million by mid-2019.
“Ultimately, we are working to reignite the type of consistent, value-building growth that creates benefits for our stakeholders and drives shareowner value,” Mr. Gammell said.
Revenue
Third-quarter 2016 reported revenue totaled €3.0 billion, up 82.5 per cent vs. prior year, reflecting the inclusion of Germany and Iberia in the quarter. Pro forma comparable revenue was flat, or up 3.5 per cent on a pro forma comparable and fx-neutral basis. Revenue per unit case was down 0.5 per cent on a pro forma comparable and fx-neutral basis. Volume grew 3.5 per cent on a pro forma basis. These results reflect favourable weather conditions, the benefits of our marketing and brand initiatives, execution, and our focus on driving top-line growth.
On a territory basis for the third quarter, Iberia revenues were up 6.5 per cent benefiting from favourable weather and solid execution, as both revenue per unit case and volume grew. Revenue in Germany declined 1.0 per cent, reflecting the impact of a transition to recyclable PET from returnable PET, promotional plans, and slight negative mix, partially offset by positive volume growth. Great Britain revenues were down 13.0 per cent, driven primarily by volume growth and favourable weather, offset by a 16 per cent decline of the British pound vs. the Euro. Revenue in France grew 1.0 per cent, primarily due to favourable weather partially offset by slight negative price and mix driven by promotional plans. Revenue in the Northern European territories (Belgium, the
| | P a g e | 3 |
Netherlands, Norway and Sweden) grew approximately 5.5 per cent driven by promotional plans, favourable weather, and favourable price and mix.
As for volume, total third-quarter volume grew 3.5 per cent vs. prior year on a pro forma basis. These results reflect growth in all categories including regular colas, favourable weather, and the benefits of our brand and marketing initiatives. Sparkling brands grew 3.0 per cent. Coca-Cola trademark grew approximately 2.0 per cent, with regular Coca-Cola up 1.0 per cent. Coca-Cola Zero trademark brands grew at a mid-teen per cent rate, led by growth in Iberia and Great Britain. The introduction of Coca-Cola Zero Sugar in Great Britain continues to be successful and will be introduced in all CCEP territories by early 2017.
Sparkling flavors and energy grew 6.5 per cent with continued strong growth in energy combined with solid growth in Fanta and the benefits of the expansion of Vio. Energy is benefiting from year-over-year comparisons as we have not yet lapped the newly acquired distribution of Monster in Iberia. Still brands grew 4.5 per cent with water brands up 4.0 per cent driven by smartwater and Vio.
Cost of Sales
Third-quarter 2016 reported cost of sales totaled €1.8 billion, up 80.0 per cent vs. prior year, driven by the inclusion of Germany and Iberia in the quarter. Pro forma comparable cost of sales totaled €1.8 billion, flat vs. prior year, or up 3.0 per cent on a pro forma comparable and fx-neutral basis.
Third-quarter cost of sales per unit case declined 0.5 per cent on a pro forma comparable and fx-neutral basis. This reflects the benefit of favourable year-over-year costs in some key commodities, principally sugar, partially offset by an increase of cost of sales in Germany from a shift from returnable to recyclable packages.
Operating Expense
Third-quarter 2016 reported operating expenses totaled €756 million, up 90.5 per cent vs. prior year, reflecting the inclusion of Germany and Iberia in the quarter. Pro forma comparable operating expenses were €701 million, down 1.5 per cent, or up 1.5 per cent on a pro forma comparable and fx-neutral basis. This includes the impact of volume growth and expense timing, partially offset by the early benefits of restructuring.
Restructuring Charges
During the third quarter of 2016, the Company recorded €53 million in restructuring charges principally related to restructuring initiatives in Germany that were in-flight at the time of Merger and the transition of Atlanta-based headquarters roles to Europe. Additionally, in October 2016, the Company announced several restructuring proposals including those related to further supply chain improvements including network optimisation, productivity initiatives, continued facility rationalisation in Germany, and end-to-end supply chain organisational design. These announcements also included transferring of Germany transactional related activities to the Company’s shared services centre in Bulgaria, and other central function initiatives. All of these proposals are subject to consultation and agreement with relevant employee representative bodies.
Outlook |
For 2016, CCEP expects revenue growth to be flat, with operating profit growth in a modest mid-single-digit range and mid-teens diluted earnings per share growth. Each of these items are on a pro forma comparable and fx-neutral basis. Pro forma comparable diluted earnings per share is expected in a range of €1.86 to €1.90, including a negative currency translation impact of approximately 4.5 per cent. In addition to operating profit growth, full-year 2016 diluted earnings per share growth is benefiting from differences in interest and tax rates between pro forma comparable 2015 figures and our 2016 outlook.
Weighted average cost of debt is expected to be approximately 2 per cent and the pro forma comparable effective tax rate for 2016 is expected to be approximately 25 per cent. CCEP does not expect to repurchase shares in 2016.
