DAMIAN GAMMELL, CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER, SAID:

 

"2025 has been another strong year for CCEP. We continue to refresh our consumers and lead value creation for our customers across beverage categories that are growing strongly. We delivered robust top and bottom-line growth, generated strong free cash flow and again grew shareholder returns. Our consumers continued to enjoy a wonderful portfolio of beverages, our revenue growth reflecting the ongoing demand for value from consumers but also for innovation and premiumisation. Our business continues to become more efficient, our multi-year productivity programmes supporting resilient profit growth and investment for the future.

"We remain resilient in vibrant categories even though the consumer environment remains challenging. We're investing more than ever in growth and greater productivity to drive expanding operating margins. With strong commercial and innovation plans in place, including the 2026 FIFA World Cup, we're excited about what this year will bring to customers and consumers.

"Our guidance, combined with a growing dividend and further €1 billion of share buybacks demonstrate the strength of this great business and our ability to deliver attractive and consistent shareholder value. All whilst continuing to be a great partner for our customers and a great place to work for our fantastic colleagues."

Reported operating profit of €2,793m, +31.0% reflecting full year of Philippines profit in FY25, annualisation of prior year impairment of Indonesian business unit & lower business transformation costs

Comparable diluted EPS of €4.11, +6.2%[3] (reported €4.26, +38.3%)

• FY dividend per share €2.04 +3.6%, maintains annualised payout ratio of ~50%

FBN[8]

• FY low single-digit volume decline with growth in Benelux & Nordics, offset by France.

• Double-digit growth of Monster, across the region, supported by innovation & new listings.

• Double-digit growth of Sprite supported by new listings in France.

• Single-digit decline in Coca-Cola with growth of Zero Sugar more than offset by decline of Original Taste in France, following increased sugar tax in Q1 & softer AFH volumes.

• Growth in revenue/UC[10] reflects headline price increases, French sugar tax & positive pack & brand mix from growth of Monster.

 

Germany

• Low single-digit volume decline in Q4 & FY with strong growth of Coca-Cola Zero & Monster more than offset by decline in Coca-Cola Original Taste, Fanta & Mezzo Mix.

• Volume decline reflecting a deeper consumer focus on affordability & value for money & softer AFH volumes.

• FY revenue/UC[10] growth driven by headline price increases implemented during Q3, supported by positive pack mix from growth of cans & decline of large PET.

 

Great Britain

• Q4 volumes broadly flat with growth in large multi-packs offset by decline in large PET during Xmas period.

• FY low single-digit volume increase in both channels driven by double-digit increase in Monster, Dr. Pepper & Sprite, supported by growth in Coca-Cola Zero & improved performance from Diet Coke.

• Strong performance in ARTD driven by growth of multipacks in Home channel & innovation.

• FY revenue/UC[10] growth reflects headline price increase during Q2 & positive brand mix from growth of Monster.

 

Iberia[9]

• Successful transition of Nestea to Fuze Tea, exiting the year as the market leader in the RTD tea category.

• Volume excluding RTD Tea up low single-digit in Q4 & FY, driven by Coca-Cola Zero, Monster & Sprite with Aquarius in Sports & Aquabona in Water all growing strongly.

• BodyArmor Sports & Bang Energy launched towards the end of the year.

• FY revenue/UC[10] growth driven by headline price increases.

 

Australia / Pacific[11]

• Low single-digit volume increase in Q4 & FY driven by all markets, especially Australia & PNG, more than offsetting the impact of exit of Suntory alcohol distribution in Australia mid-year. Excluding alcohol, volumes & revenue up mid & high single-digit respectively.

• Strong growth in Coca-Cola Zero Sugar & improvement in performance of Diet Coke drove overall growth in Coca-Cola TM volumes. Grinders coffee volume grew double-digit & Fanta volume growth supported by Lemon launch in Australia.

• Energy volumes grew double-digit, supported by innovation (e.g. Ultra Vice Guava) alongside strong growth of original Ultra White.

• New multi-year agreement with Bacardi for distribution of premium spirits & ARTD brands in Australia began towards the end of the year.

• Revenue/UC[10] growth impacted by Suntory exit (~3% impact on FY revenue). Revenue/UC growth excluding alcohol driven by headline price increases & mix benefit from growth of mini cans, small PET & Monster.

Southeast Asia[4],[12]

• Flat FY volumes with growth in the Philippines offset by double-digit decline in Indonesia.

• Philippines FY volumes (cycling FY24 +11.0%) impacted by typhoon related flooding in Q3 returning to growth in Q4 & broadly in line with expectations. Volumes driven by growth of Coca-Cola Original Taste & Wilkins Pure water. Coca-Cola Zero Sugar also performed well though from a small base.

• Indonesia FY volumes declined double-digit, better in H2 versus H1, reflecting a weaker consumer & macroeconomic backdrop. Frestea RTD tea relaunched with new identity & flavours (Blackcurrant now #1 flavoured brand). The transformation of our route to market, designed to be more agile & cost effective & focused on unlocking topline growth was executed by the end of the year.

• Positive revenue/UC[10] largely reflects headline price increases in the Philippines during Q4'24.

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, divestitures, 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. Forward-looking statements are based upon various assumptions as well as 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. Factors that, in CCEP's view, could cause such actual results to differ materially from forward looking statements include, but are not limited to, those set forth in the "Risk Factors" section of CCEP's 2024 Annual Report on Form 20-F filed with the SEC on 21 March 2025 and subsequent filings, including, but not limited to: changes in the marketplace; changes in relationships with large customers; adverse weather conditions; importation of other bottlers' products into our territories; deterioration of global and local economic and political conditions; uncertainty and volatility from the impact and extent of actual and promised tariff adjustments; increases in costs of raw materials; changes in interest rates or debt rating; deterioration in political unity within the European Union; defaults of or failures by counterparty financial institutions; changes in tax law in countries in which we operate; additional levies of taxes, including tariff adjustments; legal changes in our status; waste and pollution, health concerns perceptions, and recycling matters related to packaging; global or regional catastrophic events; cyberattacks against us or our customers or suppliers; technology failures; initiatives to realise cost savings; calculating infrastructure investment; executing on our acquisition strategy; costs, limitations of supplies, and quality of raw materials; maintenance of brand image and product quality; managing workplace health, safety and security; water scarcity and regulations; climate change and legal and regulatory responses thereto; other legal, regulatory and compliance considerations; anti-corruption laws, regulations, and sanction programmes; legal claims against suppliers; litigation and legal proceedings against us; attracting, retaining and motivating employees; our relationship with TCCC and other franchisors; and differing views among our shareholders.

 

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, 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. 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.

 

Note Regarding the Presentation of Adjusted financial information and Alternative Performance Measures

Adjusted financial information

Non-IFRS adjusted financial information for selected metrics has been provided in order to illustrate the effects of the acquisition of CCBPI on the results of operations of CCEP in 2024 and to allow for greater comparability of the results of the combined group between periods. The adjusted financial information has been prepared for illustrative purposes only, and because of its nature addresses a hypothetical situation. It does not intend to represent the results had the acquisition occurred at the dates indicated, or project the results for any future dates or periods. It is based on information and assumptions that CCEP believe are reasonable, including assumptions as at 1 January 2024 relating to transaction accounting adjustments. No cost savings or synergies were contemplated in these adjustments.

The non-IFRS adjusted financial information has not been prepared in accordance with the requirements of Regulation S-X Article 11 of the US Securities Act of 1933 or any generally accepted accounting standards, may not necessarily be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other companies and should be considered supplemental to, and not a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting standards.

The acquisition completed on 23 February 2024 and the non-IFRS adjusted financial information provided, reflects the inclusion of CCBPI as if the acquisition had occurred at the beginning of the period presented. It has been prepared on a basis consistent with CCEP IFRS accounting policies and includes transaction accounting adjustments for the periods presented.

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 condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

"Adjusted" includes the results of CCEP as if the CCBPI acquisition had occurred at the beginning of 2024, including acquisition accounting adjustments, accounting policy reclassifications and the impact of debt financing costs in connection with the acquisition.

"Comparable'' is defined as results excluding items impacting comparability, which include restructuring charges, additional considerations or gains related to property sales, accelerated amortisation charges, expenses and releases related to certain legal provisions, acquisition and integration-related costs, net tax items arising from rate and law changes, inventory fair value step-up related to acquisition accounting, impairment charges and net impact related to European flooding. Comparable volume is also adjusted for selling days.

''Adjusted comparable" is defined as adjusted results excluding items impacting comparability, as described above.

''Fx-neutral'' or "FXN" 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.

''Capex'' or "Capital expenditures'' is defined as purchases of property, plant and equipment and capitalised software, plus payments of principal on lease obligations, less proceeds from disposals of property, plant and equipment. Capex is used as a measure to ensure that cash spending on capital investment is in line with the Group's overall strategy for the use of cash.

''Comparable free cash flow'' is defined as net cash flows from operating activities less capital expenditures (as defined above) and net interest payments, adjusted for items that are not reasonably likely to recur within two years, nor have occurred within the prior two years. Comparable free cash flow is used as a measure of the Group's cash generation from operating activities, taking into account investments in property, plant and equipment, non-discretionary lease and net interest payments, while excluding the effects of items that are unusual in nature to allow for better period over period comparability. Comparable free cash flow reflects an additional way of viewing our liquidity, which we believe is useful to our investors, and is not intended to represent residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures.

''Comparable EBITDA'' is calculated as Earnings Before Interest, Tax, Depreciation and Amortisation (EBITDA), after adding back items impacting the comparability of period over period financial performance. Comparable EBITDA does not reflect cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments. Further, comparable EBITDA does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, working capital needs, and although depreciation and amortisation are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortised are likely to be replaced in the future and comparable EBITDA does not reflect cash requirements for such replacements.

''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. In addition, the ratio of net debt to comparable EBITDA is used by investors, analysts and credit rating agencies to analyse our operating performance in the context of targeted financial leverage.

''ROIC" or "Return on invested capital" is defined as reported profit after tax attributable to shareholders divided by the average of opening and closing invested capital for the year. Invested capital is calculated as the addition of borrowings and equity attributable to shareholders less cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments.

 "Comparable ROIC" adjusts reported profit after tax for items impacting the comparability of period over period financial performance and is defined as comparable operating profit after tax attributable to shareholders divided by the average of opening and closing invested capital for the year. Comparable ROIC is used as a measure of capital efficiency and reflects how well the Group generates comparable operating profit relative to the capital invested in the business.

''Dividend payout ratio'' is defined as dividends as a proportion of comparable profit after tax.

Additionally, within this document, we provide certain forward-looking non-IFRS financial information, which management uses for planning and measuring performance. We are not able to reconcile forward-looking non-IFRS measures to reported measures without unreasonable efforts because it is not possible to predict with a reasonable degree of certainty the actual impact or exact timing of items that may impact comparability throughout year.

For the year ending 31 December 2025, reported cost of sales were €13,461 million, up 1.8% versus 2024.

Comparable and fx-neutral cost of sales for the same period were €13,710 million, up 4.2% versus 2024. Cost of sales per unit case increased by 1.7% on a comparable and fx-neutral basis, reflecting increased revenue per unit case driving higher concentrate costs, inflation in manufacturing and consumption tax increases driven by France and GB.

For the year ending 31 December 2025, reported operating expenses were €4,751 million, down 6.5% versus 2024.

Comparable and fx-neutral operating expenses were €4,708 million for the same period, up 1.9% versus 2024, reflecting the impact of inflation, partially offset by the benefit of ongoing efficiency programmes and our continuous efforts on discretionary spend optimisation.

In November 2022, the Group announced a new efficiency programme to be delivered by the end of 2028. This programme focuses on further supply chain efficiencies, leveraging global procurement, and a more integrated shared service centre model, all enabled by next-generation technology, including digital tools and data and analytics. During 2025, as part of this efficiency programme, the Group announced restructuring proposals resulting in €97 million of operating expenses, primarily related to expected severance payments. This compares with €254 million of restructuring charges within operating expenses incurred in the year ended 31 December 2024, related to various productivity initiatives.

Acquisition and integration related costs of €6 million were recognised within reported operating expenses for the year ended 31 December 2025 associated with the acquisition of CCBPI, primarily system and SOX implementation related costs.

[1] During the year ended 31 December 2024, the Group paid an additional €12 million in cash taxes related to cash proceeds received in 2023 (€89 million) from royalty income arising from the ownership of certain mineral rights in Australia. The cash impact of this event has been included within the Group's net cash flows from operating activities for year ended 31 December 2024. Given the unusual nature of this item and to support better period-to-period comparability, our comparable free cash flow measure excludes the cash impact related to this matter.

If the Acquisition had occurred on 1 January 2024, adjusted comparable free cash flow for the year ended 31 December 2024 is estimated to approximate the comparable free cash flow in the table above.

In addition, net debt also includes other financial assets/liabilities relating to cash collateral pledged by/to external parties on hedging instruments related to borrowings.

[2] Cash and cash equivalents as at 31 December 2025 and 31 December 2024 included €37 million and €36 million of cash in Papua New Guinea Kina, respectively. Presently, government-imposed currency controls impact the extent to which the cash held in Papua New Guinea can be converted into foreign currency and remitted for use elsewhere in the Group.

[3] As at 31 December 2025, cash and cash equivalents did not include any amounts held by the Group's Employee Benefit Trust (31 December 2024: €10 million). These funds may only be used to purchases CCEP shares to satisfy the Group's award obligations under its current and future share-based compensation plans.

[4] Short-term investments are term cash deposits with original maturities of more than three months and less than one year. These short-term investments are held with counterparties that are continually assessed, with a focus on preserving capital and maintaining liquidity. As at 31 December 2025 and 31 December 2024, short-term investments included nil and €18 million, respectively, of assets held in Papua New Guinea kina, which are subject to the same currency controls outlined above.

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

Note 1

GENERAL INFORMATION AND BASIS OF PREPARATION

Coca-Cola Europacific Partners plc (the Company) and its subsidiaries (together CCEP, or the Group) are a leading consumer goods group in Western Europe and the Asia Pacific region, making, selling and distributing an extensive range of primarily non-alcoholic ready to drink beverages.

On 23 February 2024, the Group together with Aboitiz Equity Ventures Inc. (AEV) jointly acquired 100% of Coca-Cola Beverages Philippines, Inc. (CCBPI) (the Acquisition), a wholly owned subsidiary of The Coca-Cola Company (TCCC). Refer to Note 4 of the 2024 consolidated financial statements for further details about the acquisition of CCBPI. Coca‑Cola Beverages Philippines, Inc. was renamed Coca‑Cola Europacific Aboitiz Philippines, Inc. (CCEAP) effective 13 January 2025.

The Company has ordinary shares with a nominal value of €0.01 per share (Shares). CCEP is a public company limited by shares, incorporated under the laws of England and Wales with the registered number in England of 9717350. The Group's Shares are listed and traded on Euronext Amsterdam, the NASDAQ Global Select Market, London Stock Exchange and on the Spanish Stock Exchanges. The address of the Company's registered office is Pemberton House, Bakers Road, Uxbridge, UB8 1EZ, United Kingdom.

The financial information presented does not constitute statutory accounts as defined in section 434 of the Companies Act 2006 ('the Act'). A copy of the statutory accounts for the year ended 31 December 2024 has been delivered to the Registrar of Companies for England and Wales. The auditor's report on those accounts was unqualified, did not include a reference to any matters to which the auditor drew attention by way of emphasis without qualifying the report and did not contain a statement under sections 498(2) or 498(3) of the Act.

The financial information presented in the unaudited condensed consolidated income statement, statement of comprehensive income, statement of financial position, statement of cash flows, statement of changes in equity, and the accompanying notes within this document does not constitute the Group's full consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2025. This financial information has been extracted from the CCEP's consolidated financial statements, which will be delivered to the Registrar of Companies in due course. Accordingly, the financial information for 2025 is presented unaudited.

Basis of preparation

These condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with UK adopted International Accounting Standards, International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the European Union and International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). These condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all the information and disclosures required in the annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Group's 2024 consolidated financial statements.

Going concern

As part of the Directors' consideration of the appropriateness of adopting the going concern basis in preparing the condensed consolidated financial statements, the Directors have considered the Group's financial performance in the period and have taken into account its current cash position and its access to a €1.8 billion undrawn committed credit facility.

Further, the Directors have considered the current cash flow forecast, including a downside stress test, which supports the Group's ability to continue to generate cash flows during the next 12 months. On this basis, the Directors have a reasonable expectation that the Group has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for a period to 31 March 2027. Accordingly, these condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis and the Directors do not believe there are any material uncertainties to disclose in relation to the Group's ability to continue as a going concern.

Accounting policies

The accounting policies applied in these condensed consolidated financial statements are consistent with those followed in the preparation of the Group's consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended 31 December 2024, except for the adoption of applicable standards and amendments to accounting standards effective as of 1 January 2025.

Several amendments apply for the first time in 2025, but do not have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements of the Group. The Group has not early adopted any amendments to accounting standards that have been issued but are not yet effective.

Foreign currency

The Group's reporting currency is the Euro. CCEP translates the income statements of non-Euro functional currency subsidiary operations to the Euro at average exchange rates and the balance sheets at the closing exchange rate as at the end of the period.

The principal exchange rates from local currency to euro used for translation purposes were:

In these condensed consolidated financial statements, the Group is reporting the financial results for the years ended 31 December 2025 and 31 December 2024.

Comparability

Sales of the Group's products are seasonal. In Europe, the second and third quarters typically account for higher unit sales of the Group's products than the first and fourth quarters. In the Group's Asia Pacific territories, the fourth quarter would typically reflect higher sales volumes in the year. The seasonality of the Group's sales volume, combined with the accounting for fixed costs such as depreciation, amortisation, rent and interest expense, impacts the Group's reported results for the first and second halves of the year. Additionally, year over year shifts in holidays, selling days and weather patterns can impact the Group's results on an annual or half yearly basis.

Note 2

OPERATING SEGMENTS

Description of segments and principal activities

The Group derives its revenues through a single business activity, which is making, selling and distributing an extensive range of primarily non-alcoholic ready to drink beverages. The Group's Board continues to be its Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM), which allocates resources and evaluates performance of its operating segments based on volume, revenue and comparable operating profit. Comparable operating profit excludes items impacting the comparability of period over period financial performance.

The following table provides a reconciliation between reportable segment operating profit and consolidated profit before tax:

[1] Comparable operating profit includes comparable depreciation and amortisation of €613 million and €279 million for Europe and APS respectively, for the year ended 31 December 2025. Comparable depreciation and amortisation charges for the year ended 31 December 2024 totalled €596 million and €265 million, for Europe and APS respectively.

[2] Items impacting the comparability of period over period financial performance for 2025 primarily include restructuring charges of €105 million (refer to Note 10), accelerated amortisation charges of €27 million, €6 million of deal and integration costs related to the Acquisition, offset by €30 million of other income related to additional consideration received from the sale of a property in Germany (refer to Note 11), €74 million of other income related to gains on the sales of properties in Germany and GB (refer to Note 11) and a litigation provision reversal of €19 million. Items impacting the comparability for 2024 primarily include restructuring charges of €264 million, €14 million of deal and integration costs related to the Acquisition, impairment charges of €189 million mainly related to the Group's Indonesia CGU and accelerated amortisation charges of €55 million.

 

No single customer accounted for more than 10% of the Group's revenue during the year ended 31 December 2025 and 31 December 2024.

Note 3

EARNINGS PER SHARE 

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing profit after taxes by the weighted average number of Shares in issue during the period, after deducting the weighted average number of treasury shares held. Diluted earnings per share is calculated in a similar manner, but includes the effect of dilutive securities, principally share options, restricted stock units and performance share units. Share-based payment awards that are contingently issuable upon the achievement of specified market and/or performance conditions are included in the diluted earnings per share calculation based on the number of Shares that would be issuable if the end of the period was the end of the contingency period.

The following table summarises basic and diluted earnings per share calculations for the periods presented:

Tax Provisions

The Group is routinely under audit by tax authorities in the ordinary course of business. Due to their nature, such proceedings and tax matters involve inherent uncertainties including, but not limited to, court rulings, settlements between affected parties and/or governmental actions. The probability of outcome is assessed and accrued as a liability and/or disclosed, as appropriate. The Group maintains provisions for uncertainty related to these tax matters that it believes appropriately reflect its risk. As at 31 December 2025, €329 million (31 December 2024: €267 million) of these provisions is included in current tax liabilities and the remainder is included in non-current tax liabilities.

The Group reviews the adequacy of these provisions at the end of each reporting period and adjusts them based on changing facts and circumstances. Due to the uncertainty associated with tax matters, it is possible that at some future date, liabilities resulting from audits or litigation could vary significantly from the Group's provisions. When an uncertain tax liability is regarded as probable, it is measured on the basis of the Group's best estimate.

The Group has received tax assessments in certain jurisdictions for potential tax related to the Group's purchases of concentrate. The value of the Group's concentrate purchases is significant, and therefore, the tax assessments are substantial. The Group strongly believes the application of tax has no technical merit based on applicable tax law, and its tax position would be sustained. Accordingly, the Group has not recorded a tax liability for these assessments and is vigorously defending its position against these assessments.

Global Minimum Top-Up Tax

The Group has applied the exception under the IAS 12 amendment to recognising and disclosing information about deferred tax assets and liabilities related to top-up tax in preparing its condensed consolidated financial statements as at 31 December 2025.

The Group is in scope and is subject to top-up tax in relation to its operations in a few countries. No material expense or liability has been recognised in these condensed consolidated financial statements.

Note 10

PROVISIONS AND CONTINGENCIES

Restructuring programmes

In November 2022, the Group announced a new efficiency programme to be delivered by the end of 2028.

During 2025, as part of this efficiency programme, the Group announced restructuring proposals resulting in €105 million of recognised costs primarily related to expected severance payments. The restructuring spend is attributable to various initiatives implemented across different markets aiming to enhance efficiency and productivity.

Guarantees

As of 31 December 2025, the Group has issued guarantees to third parties of €944 million (31 December 2024: €892 million), primarily relating to ongoing litigations and tax matters in certain territories. No significant additional liabilities in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are expected to arise from the guarantees issued.

Contingencies

There have been no significant changes in contingencies since 31 December 2024.

Refer to Note 24 of the 2024 consolidated financial statements for further details about the Group's guarantees, commitments and contingencies.
