MillerCoors Second Quarter Earnings

MillerCoors DELIVERS 9.3% SECOND QUARTER Underlying Net Income Growth

Flagship Craft Brands Accelerate; Brewer Gains Share in Premium Lights

August 6, 2015 (London and Denver) - SABMiller plc (LN:SAB; OTC:SABMRY) and Molson Coors Brewing Company (NYSE: TAP; TSX: TPX) reported that MillerCoors second quarter underlying net income grew 9.3 percent to $487.2 million versus the same period in the prior year. This income growth was driven by lower brewing and packaging materials and fuel costs, as well as higher net pricing and supply chain cost savings.

"Despite challenging trading conditions, we delivered another successful financial quarter," said Gavin Hattersley, MillerCoors Interim Chief Executive Officer. "Our Above Premium portfolio, led by the Blue Moon, Leinenkugel's and Redd's families, demonstrated strong growth as beer drinkers savor high-end beers. While Coors Light and Miller Lite grew share of segment, both brands declined on a volume basis and we are working hard to achieve both share and volume growth. In support of this effort, we plan to significantly increase our investments in the second half of this year behind our Premium Light and Above Premium brands."

o Domestic sales-to-wholesalers volume (STWs) decreased 1.6 percent.

Brand Highlights for the Second Quarter

The MillerCoors Premium Light portfolio STRs declined low-single digits, in part due to industry softness in late May and June.

Miller Lite declined low-single digits but according to Nielsen, gained share of the Premium Light segment in the second quarter. In May, the brand launched a new advertising campaign entitled, "Bodega," designed to further leverage Miller Lite's perspective that people stay connected to who they really are, just as the brand has reconnected with its true self.

Coors Light declined low-single digits but also gained share of category of the Premium Light segment in the second quarter. Coors Light continued to execute its brand overhaul with the rollout of a contemporary and new visual identity across all packages and new national television advertising designed to emphasize Coors Light's Rocky Mountain heritage.

The MillerCoors Above Premium portfolio grew low-single digits. The Blue Moon Brewing Company franchise grew mid-single digits, driven by Blue Moon Belgian White's 78th consecutive quarter of growth and the release of Blue Moon White IPA, which is the number-three new craft offering in 2015 according to Nielsen. On July 31, Blue Moon celebrated its 20th anniversary with nationwide activations for the lunar blue moon in more than 800 bars across the country. The Jacob Leinenkugel Brewing Company grew high-single digits, driven by the continued growth of Summer Shandy and its newest Shandy varietal, Grapefruit Shandy. According to Nielsen, Grapefruit Shandy is the number one new craft offering in 2015.

For the second consecutive quarter, the Redd's franchise achieved double-digit growth driven by the introduction of Redd's Wicked Mango. Miller Fortune was strategically de-prioritized this year and was down double-digits.

Coors Banquet grew mid-single digits in the second quarter, partially off- setting losses from MGD. The Coors Banquet brand continued its success from the "stubby" heritage bottle, led by 12-packs and 18-packs nationwide.

Consistent with the overall industry trend that has seen declines in economy brands, the MillerCoors Below Premium portfolio declined mid-single digits, driven by high-single digit declines by Keystone Light and Milwaukee's Best, while Miller High Life declined mid-single digits. Steel Reserve grew mid-single digits, due to the continuing success of the Steel Reserve Alloy Series, the brand's line of flavored malt beverages.

Financial Highlights for the Second Quarter

Domestic net revenue per barrel grew 1.7 percent as a result of favorable net pricing and positive sales mix.

Total company net revenue per barrel, including contract brewing and company-owned distributor sales, increased 1.4 percent. Third-party contract brewing volumes were down 1.4 percent.

Total COGS per barrel decreased 1.7 percent, driven by lower delivered aluminum pricing, lower malt and corn input costs, reduced fuel expense and supply chain cost savings. These factors were partially offset by brewery inflation, higher costs associated with brand innovation and lower fixed-cost absorption due to lower volumes.

Marketing, general and administrative costs decreased by 1.1 percent, driven by lower marketing investment, particularly for Miller Fortune, partially offset by higher technology investments.

MillerCoors achieved cost savings of $21 million in the second quarter, primarily related to procurement savings and brewery efficiencies.

Depreciation and amortization expenses for MillerCoors in the second quarter were $77.4 million, and additions to tangible and intangible assets totaled $78.4 million.

There were no special items in the quarter.
