John Rishton, Chief Executive, said:

"Since taking over from Sir John Rose in April, I have had the chance to travelextensively, meeting customers and seeing a broad range of Rolls-Royce'scapabilities. It has confirmed my view that this is an outstanding company witha proven strategy and many choices about how and where it can grow in thefuture."Performance in the first half of the year was strong with our order book andunderlying profit showing solid growth, enabling an increased payment toshareholders. This demonstrates the resilience of our strategy that is based ona diverse portfolio and access to global markets.

"Completion of the acquisition, with Daimler, of the German diesel engines group Tognum will give us further opportunities for profitable growth and add significantly to the breadth and balance of our portfolio.

"For the full year, we continue to expect good growth in underlying profit and, excluding the effect of the Tognum investment, a modest cash inflow".

Group Overview

Rolls-Royce benefits from a consistent and long-term strategy which has givenus a broad installed base of power systems and a record order book of £61.4bn.This order book and our strong market position reinforce our belief that theGroup's revenues will double in the next decade through organic growth alone. Successful implementation, with Daimler, of our joint plans for Tognum AG(Tognum) will accelerate that growth.The knowledge that we will grow significantly in the coming years gives us theconfidence to continue investing in our portfolio and operations. Theseinvestments will enable us to meet our customer commitments and improveoperational effectiveness. In the previous three years we have invested over £4bn in technology and infrastructure. This programme of investment continued inthe first half:- Our new disc manufacturing facility opened in Crosspointe, Virginia, USA.

- Equipment testing started at our new manufacturing, research and training

facilities in Singapore.

- Building works continued, with our partners, at the advanced manufacturing

research centres in Ansty, Sheffield and Bristol - these sites remain on track

for second half openings.

- New Marine services centres were opened in Rotterdam in the Netherlands, Gdynia

in Poland and Walvis Bay in Namibia - more will open in the second half.

- The first production BR725 engines for the Gulfstream G650 were manufactured in

Germany.

The first half was also notable for two important decisions to expand our portfolio:

Joint Public Tender Offer for Tognum

Our 50:50 joint venture with Daimler to acquire Tognum will combine the strengths of three world-class companies to create a leader in integrated solutions for industrial engines, systems and services. This is a global market, worth €30bn annually, that is seeing significant growth.

With complementary product ranges, a strong technology portfolio and good aftermarket opportunities, we are confident that this joint venture will create opportunities and add scale to our Marine and Energy businesses.

Launch of the higher thrust Trent XWB for the A350-1000

We have agreed with Airbus SAS to provide engines on an exclusive basis for the new extended-range A350-1000 aircraft.

Our position across all A350 XWB variants is a testament to our technology, which is setting new standards of efficiency and performance.

The Trent XWB has already become the fastest selling Trent engine with almost1,200 firm engine orders from 36 customers included in the orderbook. Before ithas even flown, the Trent XWB has secured a similar number of engine orders tothe market-leading Trent 700 that has been in service since 1995. Group Trading SummaryGeneral

- The difficulties faced by the global economy and by those governments with

budgetary imbalances are well publicised. However, due to the diversity of our

businesses, customers and programmes and the strength of our product line-up,

demand for our products and services remains robust, particularly in developing

markets.

- The order book benefited from new first half orders of £8.7bn, up 60 per cent

on H1 2010, comprising £6.5bn in Civil Aerospace, £0.8bn in Defence Aerospace,

£1.0bn in Marine and £0.4bn in Energy. The order book provides good visibility

of growth for many years to come.

Income Statement

- Underlying revenues, up four per cent to £5.46bn, included ten per cent growth

in services revenues (£2.87bn), partially offset by a two per cent reduction in

Original Equipment (OE) revenues (£2.59bn). OE performance included strong

growth in Civil Aerospace (up 22 per cent) and improvement in the achieved USD

exchange rate. This growth was more than offset by the anticipated reduction in

Marine OE revenues (down 25 per cent).

- Underlying services revenues continued to benefit from the increased size of

the installed base and expansion of our services network. Defence Aerospace

benefited from one-off contract termination settlements resulting from the

Strategic Defence and Security Review (SDSR) of the UK Ministry of Defence

(MoD). Marine services saw further double-digit growth.

- Underlying profit before tax, up 28 per cent to £595m, was helped by the

increased size of the installed base, better revenue mix, the improved achieved

USD exchange rate and better productivity that broadly offset inflationary

pressures as expected. As is normal, there were a number of one-off items in

the period that are explained further in the business reviews, the most

significant of which relates to a £60m benefit from the SDSR settlements.

Underlying earnings per share (UEPS) improved 28 per cent compared with

H1 2010. Balance Sheet

- The balance sheet remains strong with net cash at period end of £1.45bn, down

from £1.53bn at the end of 2010. Average net cash for the first half reduced by

£135m to £780m from the same period in 2010 due to the phasing of acquisition

spend in 2010 and foreign exchange. Debt maturities remain well spread through

2019 and the credit ratings agencies provide strong debt ratings for

Rolls-Royce with stable or positive outlooks.

- Pension liabilities remain stable with no significant change expected to the

ongoing funding levels of the UK pension schemes in 2011 or 2012.

- Customer financing commitments remain modest.

Cash Flow

- A modest cash outflow of £82m resulted from the continued investment programme

in both tangible and intangible assets, an increase in net working capital, in

part reflecting supply chain disruption around the tragic events in Japan,

lower customer deposits, mainly in Marine and Energy, and the purchase of

shares in Tognum AG.Group Prospects

Confirming full year 2011 guidance for underlying revenues and underlying profit:

For the full year, underlying revenues are expected to grow modestly in 2011 aswe experience strong OE growth in Civil Aerospace and Defence Aerospacetogether with further growth in services activities from all businesses. Thisgrowth in revenues will be partially offset by a slowdown in OE revenues in theMarine business.Group underlying profit before tax for 2011 is expected to see good growthresulting from a strong trading performance in Civil Aerospace and the one-offsettlements in Defence Aerospace. The Civil Aerospace performance includes abetter revenue mix, an improved achieved USD exchange rate and a continuedfocus on cost control, more than offsetting higher than expected research anddevelopment (R&D) charges and the consequences of the Japanese earthquake. TheMarine and Energy businesses are expected to deliver broadly similar profitperformances to 2010.

Excluding the implications of the Tognum acquisition and after a modest cash inflow for the full year, average net cash balances are expected to remain similar to those of the first half of 2011.

The implications of the Tognum joint public tender offer on 2011 performance:

As a joint venture, Tognum will be equity-accounted and therefore will have no impact on the Group's 2011 revenues. The associated net funding costs are expected to broadly offset any 2011 operating profit benefit. We do not therefore expect any significant impact on the Group's underlying profit before tax.

The 2011 cash consideration for the Group of the Tognum acquisition is expectedto be around £1.3bn.Enquiries:Investors: Media:Mark Alflatt Josh Rosenstock

Business Segment Reviews

N.B. Commentaries in all business segment reviews relate to underlying revenues and underlying profits, unless specifically noted.

Underlying profit before financing (£m) 250 210 +19%

* Full year 2010 data

Financial

- New orders of £6.5bn (£2.9bn in H1 2010) contributed to a six per cent increase

in the record order book. The order book contains almost 5,000 engines that

will add, over time, around 250m lbs of installed thrust, or 65 per cent, to

our current installed base. Significant orders in the period included: > Trent 700 engines and TotalCare support for 15 Airbus A330s by Singapore Airlines. > Trent 900 engines and TotalCare support for six Airbus A380s by Asiana Airlines.

> Trent 1000 TotalCare support for nine Boeing 787s by Norwegian Airlines.

> Trent XWB TotalCare support for 70 Airbus A350 XWBs by Emirates Airlines.

- Revenues increased by 14 per cent. There was a 22 per cent growth in OE

revenues, including significantly higher deliveries of wide-body and Corporate

& Regional engines. Services revenues grew by eight per cent, partly helped by

a better achieved USD exchange rate in the period.

- Profit increased by 19 per cent due to increased revenues, a nine cent

improvement in the achieved USD exchange rate and improved productivity. This

growth was tempered by higher R&D charges, further launch costs and modest

costs related to the Trent 900 event in 2010, as previously guided.

Portfolio

- The exclusive agreement with Airbus SAS to develop a higher thrust Trent XWB

engine for the extended range A350-1000 aircraft will further broaden our

portfolio and strengthen our wide-body market position.

- The Trent 1000 will power the Boeing 787 Dreamliner that enters commercial

service later this year. This marks the start of engine deliveries that will

generate revenues for decades to come. The Trent 1000 sets new standards in

efficiency, winning seven out of the last eight Boeing 787 engine competitions.

Full Year Outlook

- Strong growth is expected in OE revenues supported by double digit growth in

engine deliveries in all sectors. Services revenues are expected to grow by mid

single digits, supported by further growth in TotalCare revenues and a recovery

in 'time and materials' services on large engines.

- Profit is expected to increase by 20 to 25 per cent due to growth in services

revenues, a better achieved USD exchange rate and improved productivity. The

increase includes the anticipated increase in new programme launch costs, higher R&D charges and operational costs associated with events in Japan.Defence Aerospace H1 11 H1 10 +/- Order book (£bn) 6.2 6.5* -5%Engine deliveries 330 373 -12%Underlying revenues (£m) 1,088 1,018 +7%Underlying OE revenues (£m) 504 510 -1%Underlying services revenues (£m) 584 508 +15%

- A five per cent reduction in the order book to £6.2bn reflects budgetary

pressures in Europe and North America. However, new orders of £0.8bn (£1.2bn in

H1 2010) confirm that opportunities still exist, particularly in services, in

our traditional markets as well as in the developing economies. Significant

orders in the period included:

> MissionCareâ„¢ support for the UK Royal Air Force and the US Air Force for

C-130J transport aircraft.

- Revenues increased by seven per cent. A one per cent reduction in OE revenues

reflects the phasing of engine deliveries that will improve significantly in

the second half. Strong growth in services revenues benefits from the SDSR

contract settlements with the UK MoD. Given the scale, breadth and balance of

the portfolio, the expected operational and financial impact of the SDSR has

been modest, excluding contract settlements.

- Profit benefited from the one-off SDSR settlements of £60m.

Portfolio

- The US Department of Defence has halted the F136 second engine programme for

the F-35 Lightning II Joint Strike Fighter (JSF) with development around 80 per

cent complete. We continue to consider options with our partner General

Electric Co.

- While the Short Take-Off and Vertical Landing (STOVL) variant of the JSF is on

probation, the Liftsystemâ„¢ is performing well in testing.

- The TP400 engine for the A400M aircraft completed engine certification. Flight

testing continues.Full Year Outlook

- Defence Aerospace remains well-positioned to service traditional and developing

markets, supported by the expansion of the portfolio, a market-leading presence

in military transport and access to a global customer base.

- Revenues are expected to grow by mid single digits with strong growth in OE.

Services revenues are expected to grow modestly, including the benefit of the

SDSR settlements.

- Profit is expected to be around £60m better than 2010, mainly due to one-off SDSR settlements. Marine H1 11 H1 10 +/- Order book (£bn) 2.9 3.0* -3%Underlying revenues (£m) 1,171 1,357 -14%Underlying OE revenues (£m) 695 928 -25%Underlying services revenues (£m) 476 429 +11%

* Full year 2010 dataFinancial

- There was a three per cent reduction in the order book to £2.9bn due to the

phasing of orders. New orders totalled £1.0bn (£1.0bn in H1 2010) with some

market segments improving, a trend we expect to continue through 2011.

Significant orders in the period included:

> MT30 gas turbines and water jets for a ten-ship contract for the Lockheed

Martin designed Littoral Combat Ship by the US Navy, our largest surface

ship contract to date.

> UT design and systems integration packages for the Oil & Gas sector for more

than £100m by customers in Italy, Brazil, Norway, Singapore and China.

> A £100m contract for the design and provision of equipment for six UT776

offshore supply vessels by the Blue Sea Group.

- Revenues reduced by 14 per cent due to 25 per cent lower OE revenues, mainly in

the Merchant and Offshore sectors. This was partially offset by an 11 per cent

increase in services revenues.

- Profit increased by three per cent, supported by better revenue mix and unit

cost improvements.Portfolio

- Our continued investment in the network of service centres included the opening

of new facilities in Rotterdam, Gdynia and Walvis Bay, with more to open in the

second half. We now have a dockside presence in 35 countries and see

opportunities to add further centres in the future.

- The PWR3 nuclear reactor was selected by the UK MoD as the propulsion choice

for the next generation of nuclear powered submarines.

- Tognum will add complementary products and scale to our existing portfolio and

systems integration capabilities.

Full Year Outlook

- Demand for sophisticated offshore Oil & Gas exploration and production

capabilities, and for cleaner, more efficient vessels is encouraging, with

order flow expected to improve in the second half of 2011.

- Revenues in 2011 are expected to be similar to 2010, reflecting weaker OE

revenues despite a strong improvement in the second half. This will be

partially offset by further double digit growth in services revenues.

- Profit for the full year is expected to be broadly similar to that in 2010.Energy H1 11 H1 10 +/- Order book (£bn) 1.0 1.2* -17%Engine deliveries 38 28 +36%Underlying revenues (£m) 600 590 +2%Underlying OE revenues (£m) 345 348 -1%Underlying services revenues (£m) 255 242 +5%

* Full year 2010 data

Financial

- Despite an 11 per cent increase in new orders to £424m (£381m in H1 2010), the

order book declined by 17 per cent reflecting mainly the phasing of orders to

the second half. High oil prices are supporting progress in new projects

around the world, creating future demand for our products and services.

- The traditional power generation market remains suppressed and industrial

demand has not yet fully recovered to pre-2008 levels, resulting in excess

generating capacity in the developed world. However, this is being partially

offset by greater interest from the developing economies. Significant orders in

the period included:

> Six RB211 compressor units for PetroChina's WEPP Line 2 East Project.

> Nine Bergen diesel engines to Lukoil in Russia.

> A 20-year contract to supply safety-critical nuclear services to CEZ in

the Czech Republic.

- Revenues were similar to 2010 with stable contributions from Power Generation

and Oil & Gas.

- The £18m improvement in performance, resulting in a loss of £1m for the half

year, was due mainly to non-recurring industrial Trent retrofit charges in the

first half of 2010.Portfolio

- The newly announced facility in Brazil to assemble and test RB211 gas turbine

packages for the Brazilian Oil & Gas market is expected to be operational

in 2012.

- The 500kW tidal power turbine has continued testing at the European Marine

Environmental Centre.

- Memoranda of Understanding with Westinghouse Electric Co, Areva and EDF SA have

been developed further to collaborate in the provision of civil

nuclear services.

- Improved Power Generation activity in developing markets is creating new

opportunities. Our involvement with Tognum will position us better to respond

to these opportunities and establish a broader platform for growth.

Full Year Outlook

- Revenues are expected to be broadly similar to 2010 in both OE and services.

- Profit is expected to be broadly similar to 2010, which is lower than

previously expected.

Additional Group Financial Data

1. Foreign Exchange

Currency movements can have a material effect on the Group's reported financial performance that does not reflect the underlying trading performance of the Group for the period.

In particular, the GBP exchange rates against the USD, EUR and the NOK influence the reported income statement, the cash flow and the closing net cash position (as set out in the cash flow statement). The principal spot rates during the first half were as follows:

Spot Rates 30 June 31 Dec £1 ~ USD $1.61 $1.57 £1 ~ EUR €1.11 €1.17 £1 ~ NOK NOK8.61 NOK9.10 Average Spot Rates H1 2011 H1 2010 £1 ~ USD $1.62 $1.52 £1 ~ EUR €1.15 €1.15 £1 ~ NOK NOK9.01 NOK9.21

The movements affected the reported performance in two main ways:

a. Income statement

Foreign exchange and commodity derivatives are held to hedge futuretransactions. IAS 39 requires that these derivatives are reported at marketvalue at the balance sheet date. The Group has chosen not to hedge account forthese derivatives and consequently gains or losses arising from changes inmarket value are included in the reported income statement. The non-cashunrealised gain/loss arising in the period is excluded from underlying profit.The value of the derivative hedge book is recognised in underlying profit whenthe derivatives are actually settled (i.e. utilised by matching with cash flowsin the period).The Group's financial instruments mainly comprise forward contracts for foreignexchange and swap contracts for interest rates, commodities and jet fuel. Dueto the significant net USD income of the Group, the principal mark-to-marketadjustments relate to the GBP~USD hedge book which, together with the value ofthe other instruments, is included within net financing income in the incomestatement of £421m (£1,069m expense in H1 2010), contributing to a reportedprofit before tax of £1,137m (H1 2010 loss of £475m).Excluding the mark-to-market adjustments, the underlying profit before tax of £595m included £23m of foreign exchange benefits compared with H1 2010. Theachieved exchange rate on selling net USD income was around nine cents betterin the first half than for the same period in 2010, contributing £36m oftransactional benefits, partially offset by a £13m translational loss relatedto lower average USD rates. For the full year, the achieved USD exchange rateis expected to improve by around eight cents compared with 2010.

b. Balance sheet and cash flow

The Group maintains a number of currency cash balances which vary throughoutthe period. These were impacted by the movements in exchange rates during theperiod, causing a small improvement of £18m in the periodic cash flow and hencethe closing balance sheet net cash position.

2. Key Group Financial Metrics

Research & Development H1 11 H1 10 +/- Gross R&D investment £431m £436m -1%Net R&D investment £243m £238m +2%Net R&D charge £210m £192m +9%

There was a £5m increase in net R&D investment funded by the Group in the firsthalf. In addition, lower net capitalisation of the development programme spendcontributed to the £18m increase in the net R&D charge.

For the full year, the net R&D investment funded by the Group is expected to be modestly higher than 2010, but lower capitalisation and higher amortisation will cause the R&D charge to the income statement to increase by around £60m.

Net Financing H1 11 H1 10 +/- Net financing income/ (costs) £421m (£1,069m) Underlying finance costs £24m £29m -17%Net financing income of £421m (£1,069m cost in H1 2010) reflects the effects ofthe mark-to-market revaluations of the Group's hedge book and other financialinstruments.

Underlying finance charges reduced by £5m in the period reflecting lower financial RRSP charges and lower funding costs as one of the Group's bonds, a Eurobond settled part way through the period. Underlying finance costs are expected to continue at a similar rate in the second half.

Other Income

Other operating income decreased to £52m (£74m in H1 2010) on an underlying basis due to the phasing of programme fees from risk and revenue sharing partners on major new programmes such as the Trent XWB. For the full year, other operating income is expected to be around £20m lower than 2010.

Taxation & Earnings per Share (EPS)

H1 11 H1 10 +/- Underlying EPS 23.89p 18.72p +28%Underlying taxation charge £153m £116m +32%

The 28 per cent increase in the underlying EPS is consistent with the 28 per cent increase in the Group's underlying profit before tax.

The underlying taxation charge represents an underlying tax rate of 25.6 per cent (24.9 per cent in H1 2010). The 2011 full year rate is expected to be similar to the half-year rate.

Tangible & Intangible Investments

H1 11 H1 10 +/- Investment in intangible assets £155m £181m -14%

Investment in property plant and equipment £177m £139m +27%

The investment in intangible assets is outlined more fully in Note 7 on page 22.

The 27 per cent increase in investment in property, plant and equipmentreflects the ongoing development and refreshment of facilities and tooling asthe Group prepares for increased production volumes. For the full yearinvestment in tangible and intangible assets is expected to be around £800m, inline with prior guidance.

Theprincipal difference in the value of the gross and net commitments relates tothe underlying security value of the aircraft.

Payments to Shareholders

The Group provides its payments to shareholders as redeemable C Shares that may be retained or redeemed for a cash equivalent.

The Registrar operates a C Share Reinvestment Plan (CRIP) for the Group and can, on behalf of shareholders, purchase ordinary shares in the market rather than delivering a payment in cash.

The interim payment is payable on January 5, 2012 to shareholders on theregister on October 28, 2011 and will be made in the form of non-cumulativeredeemable preference shares of 0.1 pence each (C Shares). The final day oftrading with entitlement to C Shares is October 25, 2011. Shareholders mustlodge instructions with our Registrars, Computershare Investor Services PLC, toarrive no later than 5.00 p.m. on December 5, 2011 if they wish to redeem CShares for cash or otherwise reinvest the proceeds of the redemption in furtherordinary shares using the CRIP.

(1) On May 23, 2011, under a scheme of arrangement between Rolls-Royce Group plc,

the former holding company of the Group, and its shareholders under Part 26

of the Companies Act 2006, and as sanctioned by the High Court, all the issued

ordinary shares in that company were cancelled and the same number of new

ordinary shares were issued to Rolls-Royce Holdings plc in consideration

for the allotment to shareholders of one ordinary share in Rolls-Royce Holdings plc for each ordinary share in Rolls-Royce Group plc held on the record date (May 20, 2011).

On May 23, 2011, pursuant to the scheme of arrangement noted above,

1,872,188,709 ordinary shares of 150 pence were issued. As required by Section

612 of the Companies Act 2006, no share premium was recognised.

On May 24, 2011, the share capital of Rolls-Royce Holdings plc was reduced by

reducing the nominal value of the ordinary shares from 150 pence to 20 pence

as sanctioned by the High Court.

Basis of preparation and accounting policies

Reporting entity

Rolls-Royce Holdings plc was introduced as the new holding company of theRolls-Royce Group on May 23, 2011 by way of a scheme of arrangement (Scheme)under Part 26 of the Companies Act 2006. Following the Scheme taking effect,the capital of Rolls-Royce Holdings plc was reduced to create distributablereserves. The scheme does not constitute a business combination under therequirements of IFRS 3 Business combinations. Accordingly, merger accountingprinciples have been applied, as if the Company had always been the holdingcompany of the Group.

Rolls-Royce Holdings plc is a company domiciled in the UK. These condensed consolidated half-year financial statements of the Company as at and for the six months ended June 30, 2011 comprise the Company and its subsidiaries (together referred to as the "Group") and the Group's interests in joint ventures and associates.

The consolidated financial statements of Rolls-Royce Group plc as at and for the year ended December 31, 2010 (2010 Annual report) are available upon request from the Company Secretary, Rolls-Royce Holdings plc, 65 Buckingham Gate, London SW1E 6AT.

Statement of complianceThese condensed consolidated half-year financial statements have been preparedin accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting as adopted by theEuropean Union. They do not include all of the information required for fullannual statements, and should be read in conjunction with the 2010 Annualreport. The comparative figures for the financial year December 31, 2010 are not theGroup's statutory accounts for that financial year. Those accounts have beenreported on by the Group's auditors and delivered to the registrar ofcompanies. The report of the auditors was (i) unqualified, (ii) did not includea reference to any matters to which the auditors drew attention by way ofemphasis without qualifying their report, and (iii) did not contain a statementunder section 498(2) or (3) of the Companies Act 2006.

The Board of directors approved the condensed consolidated half-year financial statements on July 27, 2011.

Significant accounting policies

Except as explained below, the accounting policies applied by the Group inthese condensed consolidated half-year financial statements are the same asthose that applied to the consolidated financial statements of the Group forthe year ended December 31, 2010 (International Financial Reporting Standardsissued by the International Accounting Standards Board, as adopted for use inthe EU effective at December 31, 2010). Although the Group does not generally apply cash flow hedge accounting inrespect of forward foreign exchange contracts held to manage the cash flowexposures of forecast foreign exchange transactions, it has applied cash flowhedge accounting in respect of forward foreign exchange contracts held tomanage the commitment to fund the acquisition of shares in Tognum AG - see note12.

Key sources of estimation uncertainty

In applying the accounting policies, management has made appropriate estimatesin many areas, and the actual outcome may differ from those calculated. The keysources of estimation uncertainty at the balance sheet date were the same asthose that applied to the consolidated financial statements of the Group forthe year ended December 31, 2010.

Analysis by business segment

The analysis by business segment is presented in accordance with IFRS 8 Operating segments, on the basis of those segments whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the Board.

The operating results are prepared on an underlying basis that excludes items considered to be non-underlying in nature. The principles adopted are:

Underlying revenues - Where revenues are denominated in a currency other than

the functional currency of the Group undertaking, these reflect the achieved

exchange rates arising on settled derivative contracts. There is no

inter-segment trading and hence all revenues are from external customers.

Underlying profit before financing - Where transactions are denominated in a

currency other than the functional currency of the Group undertaking, this

reflects the transactions at the achieved exchange rates on settled derivative

contracts. Underlying profit before taxation - In addition to those adjustments in underlying profit before financing, this:

- Includes amounts realised from settled derivative contracts and revaluation of

relevant assets and liabilities to exchange rates forecast to be achieved from

future settlement of derivative contracts; and

- Excludes unrealised amounts arising from revaluations required by IAS 39

Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement, changes in value of

financial RRSP contracts arising from changes in forecast payments and the net

impact of financing costs related to post-retirement scheme benefits.

This analysis also includes a reconciliation of the underlying results to those reported in the consolidated income statement.

(1) The adjustment for realised (gains)/losses on settled derivative contracts

include adjustments to reflect the (gains)/losses in the same period as the

related trading cash flows.

(2) The adjustment for unrealised fair value changes to derivative contracts

include those included in equity accounted joint ventures and exclude those for

which the related trading contracts have been cancelled when the fair value

changes are recognised immediately in underlying profit.

(3) In 2010, the UK Government announced changes to the basis of the statutory

indexation for pension increases. As a result, the relevant arrangements have

been amended, resulting in a gain in the income statement of £130m, which has

been excluded from underlying profit.

(4) The Group has agreed revised post-retirement healthcare arrangements on

certain of its overseas schemes. This has resulted in a net gain in the income

statement of £22m which has been excluded from underlying profit.

Earnings per ordinary share (EPS)

Basic EPS are calculated by dividing the profit attributable to ordinaryshareholders by the weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue duringthe period, excluding ordinary shares held under trust, which have been treatedas if they had been cancelled.

Diluted EPS are calculated by adjusting the weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue during the period for the bonus element of share options.

The UK corporation tax rate reduced from 28% to 26% on April 1,2011 and the effective tax rate takes this reduction into account. The impactof the reduction to 27% was reflected in the 2010 closing deferred tax balancesas the rate change was substantially enacted prior to the year end. As thefurther reduction to 26% was substantially enacted on March 29, 2011, theclosing deferred tax assets and liabilities have been remeasured. The proposedfuture reductions in the rate to 23% will be reflected when the relevantlegislation is substantively enacted. The impact of the reduction in the rateon the effective tax rate for the full-year is not expected to besignificant.

Where an impairment test wasconsidered necessary, it has been performed on the following basis:The carrying values have been assessed by reference to value in use. These havebeen estimated using cash flows from the most recent forecasts prepared bymanagement, which are consistent with past experience and external sources ofinformation on market conditions over the lives of the respective programmes.The key assumptions underlying cash flow projections are assumed market share,programme timings, unit cost assumptions, discount rates, and foreign exchangerates.

The pre-tax cash flow projections have been discounted at 11% (2010 full year 11%), based on the Group's weighted average cost of capital.

No impairment is required on this basis. However, a combination of changes inassumptions and adverse movements in variables that are outside the Company'scontrol (discount rate, exchange rate and airframe delays), could result inimpairment in future periods.

(2) Where a surplus has arisen on a scheme, in accordance with IAS 19 and IFRIC 14,

the surplus is recognised as an asset only if it represents an unconditional

economic benefit available to the Group in the future. Any surplus in excess of

this benefit is not recognised in the balance sheet.

(3) A minimum funding liability arises where the statutory funding requirements

require future contributions in respect of past service that will result in a

future unrecognisable surplus.

Contingent liabilities and contingent assets

In connection with the sale of its products the Group will, on some occasions,provide financing support for its customers. The Group's contingent liabilitiesrelated to financing arrangements are spread over many years and relate to anumber of customers and a broad product portfolio. During the first half of2011, there were no material changes to the maximum gross and net contingentliabilities.Contingent liabilities exist in respect of guarantees provided by the Group inthe ordinary course of business for product delivery, performance andreliability. The Group has, in the normal course of business, entered intoarrangements in respect of export finance, performance bonds, countertradeobligations and minor miscellaneous items. Various Group undertakings areparties to legal actions and claims which arise in the ordinary course ofbusiness, some of which are for substantial amounts. While the outcome of someof these matters cannot precisely be foreseen, the directors do not expect anyof these arrangements, legal actions or claims, after allowing for provisionsalready made, to result in significant loss to the Group.During 2011, the Launch Nations and Airbus agreed to modify the agreementrelating to the development of the Airbus A400M aircraft. EPI EuropropInternational GmbH (EPI) which is developing the TP400 engine for the A400M,and in which the Group is a partner, and Airbus have subsequently modifiedtheir agreement. As a result, the previously reported claims received by EPIhave been withdrawn.During the period, Rolls-Royce and United Technologies Corporation (UTC), theparent company of Pratt & Whitney, have reached an amicable, confidentialsettlement agreement resulting in dismissal of all patent litigations betweenthe parties.Related party transactionsTransactions with related parties are shown on page 131 of the Annual report2010.

Principal risks and uncertainties

As described on pages 26 and 27 of the Annual report 2010, the Group continuesto be exposed to a number of risks and has an established, structured approachto identifying, assessing and managing those risks. The Group has a consistentstrategy and long performance cycles and consequently the risks faced by theGroup have not changed significantly over the first six months of 2011.

The principal risks reflect the global growth of the business, and the competitive and challenging business environment in which it operates. Risks are considered under four broad headings:

Business environment risks Strategic risks

- Environmental impact of products and operations - Competitive pressures - Legislative and regulatory pressures

- Export controls - Significant external events - Government spending - Global resource capability Financial risks Operational risks - Counterparty credit risk - Supply chain performance - Currency risk - Ethics - Credit rating - Programme portfolio - IT security - Product performance Going concernAfter making enquiries, the directors have a reasonable expectation that theGroup has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for theforeseeable future. For this reason they continue to adopt the going concernbasis in preparing the consolidated financial statements. The financial riskmanagement objectives and policies of the Group and the exposure of the Groupto financial risks are discussed in the Finance Director's review of the Annualreport 2010 on pages 48 to 55.

Statement of directors' responsibilities
