Zoran Bogdanovic, Chief Executive Officer of Coca-Cola HBC AG, commented:

"We delivered strong performance in the first half as we continued to execute our growth strategy with focus and discipline, including making progress on our sustainability commitments. I would like to thank our people for their outstanding contribution every day. I am also particularly grateful for our strong partnership and collaboration with customers and suppliers during these volatile times.

The quality of our 24/7 brand portfolio, revenue growth management capabilities and execution excellence allowed us to take full advantage of post-pandemic recovery across our markets and to continue to gain significant share. I am pleased we achieved strong organic growth, balanced between volume and revenue per case. Pricing, mix and cost efficiencies helped to mitigate input cost increases, underpinning successful conversion of revenue growth into profits and cashflow.

Consistent investment in high-potential opportunities, prioritised capabilities and capacity over years is delivering growth today. And we stay the course, with targeted investments for growth.

We have high confidence that our close customer partnerships, strong portfolio and the capabilities of our people will allow us to continue to create value even as we face a period of macro-economic and geo-political uncertainty. We are reinstating guidance for 2022 and expect to generate comparable EBIT in the range of €740-820 million."

Business Outlook

While we remain attentive to macro-economic and geo-political risks, we have high confidence in our portfolio, route to market strength, customer-centric commercial strategy, the potential of our diverse markets, and above all, the capability of our people. We are actively prioritizing investments across geographies to drive sustainable growth.

• In 2022 we expect to generate positive organic revenue growth at a Group level.
• Our markets outside of Russia and Ukraine continue to show strong momentum. Excluding Russia and Ukraine we expect double digit organic revenue growth.
• We continue to face ongoing inflation and now assume COGS/case increase by mid-teens in 2022.
• We will remain disciplined on efficiency improvements. We will also continue to invest behind growth opportunities in the portfolio, our markets, our capabilities, people and sustainability commitments. To support growth opportunities in our markets we anticipate an increase in marketing in H2 2022.
• Going forward, our presence in Russia will be significantly smaller than in prior years and focused on existing local brands. Our expectation is for this local business to be immediately financially self- sufficient.
• As a result of these factors, we expect Group comparable EBIT in the range of €740 to €820 million for 2022, which includes the full consolidation of Multon starting on 11 August.

Technical guidance

Restructuring We do not expect significant restructuring initiatives to take place for the rest of the year.

Financial charges In H1 we incurred non-cash charges of €188 million and cash charges of €2 million, predominantly related to our business in Russia. As a result of post balance sheet events, we expect to incur further charges in H2, currently estimated at €82 million. These charges do not affect our comparable metrics.

Tax Considering the dynamics of the evolving mix of profitability in our country portfolio, we continue to expect our comparable effective tax rate to be in the range between 25% and 27%.

Finance costs We continue to expect net finance costs for 2022 to be approximately €15 to €20 million higher than 2021, mainly due to the consolidation of Egypt.

Group Operational Review

Update on Ukraine and Russia

We continue to prioritise the safety of our people and their families who have been affected by the unspeakable tragedy in Ukraine. On 24 February 2022 we temporarily closed our plant and stopped production for safety reasons. Since May, we progressively restarted manufacturing in Ukraine and are currently distributing and selling beverages where it is safe to do so. In Q2, volumes in Ukraine declined by 45%.

On 8 March we stopped placing orders for concentrate of The Coca-Cola Company's branded products in Russia and we have worked in close alignment with The Coca-Cola Company on the implementation of its decision to suspend its business there. We have ceased investment in Russia and will not deploy new capital into the market. In Russia, volumes declined by 46% in Q2 and we expect some further declines in H2. Going forward we expect to have significantly smaller presence in Russia focused on local brands which will be immediately operationally and financially self-sufficient. We have incurred non-cash charges of €188 million and cash charges of €2 million. These charges will be recognised as items affecting comparability and will impact EBIT and EPS only on a reported basis. We will start full consolidation of Multon from 11 August.

Leveraging our unique 24/7 portfolio

We delivered half year organic volume growth of 4.7%, which was impacted by declines in Russia and Ukraine. Excluding these markets, organic volume growth was up 12.1%, with broad-based growth and increased momentum in Q2. All segments achieved H1 volumes above 2019 levels.

Our focus on the most profitable growth opportunities across our 24/7 portfolio is driving high quality revenue growth and EBIT margin resilience.

• Within Sparkling, Low/ no sugar variants were up 28.6% and Adult Sparkling brands up 7.4%. Trademark Coca-Cola volumes grew by 4.0%, led by ongoing strong performance from Coke Zero. Overall, Sparkling volumes grew by 3.6% (+11.2% excluding Russia and Ukraine).
• Energy volumes grew by 18.6%, with consistently high growth in all three segments.
• Coffee performed well, up 55.8%, led by growth in Costa Coffee. We continued out-of-home customer recruitment, strengthened by our premium brand Caffè Vergnano.
• Still volumes grew by 7.0%, with growth led by the Established and Developing segment, while performance in the Emerging segment was weaker, impacted by Russia and Ukraine.
• Premium Spirits volumes increased by 4.9%, cycling growth of nearly 50% in the prior year period.

Winning in the marketplace

Organic revenue per case expanded by 14.0%. We saw an acceleration in our pricing and other revenue growth management actions in Q2, as we took decisive actions to mitigate ongoing inflationary pressures.

Organic revenue increased by 19.4% and reported net sales revenue increased by 29.6%. Egypt added 7 percentage points to reported net sales revenue growth and we also faced a positive currency impact from the Russian Rouble and Nigerian Naira.

Pricing and mix

All price increases have been executed according to plan. We continue to take advantage of all revenue growth management capabilities, the strength and breadth of our portfolio, as well as data, insights and analytics, to support affordability in a profit accretive way, while also premiumising to enhance revenue per case.

Strong growth in the out-of-home channel, and targeted activation of single-serve package formats, improved package mix. Similarly, multi-packs of single serves were a focus area in the at-home channel. These combined actions improved single serve mix by 3.7 percentage points, 2.1 percentage points above 2019 levels. Outperformance of Adult Sparkling and Energy drove further improvements in category mix.

Market share gains

Successful execution in the out-of-home channel ahead of the summer season was crucial across our markets. We complemented this with a continued focus on opportunities in the at-home channel, leveraging the strength of our portfolio with strong marketing campaigns and execution. We gained 160

basis points of value share in NARTD and 210 basis points of value share in Sparkling over the period, showing the enduring strength of our brands and attractiveness of our offering for customers and consumers.

Cost control, operating profit and margins

Comparable gross profit grew by 20.8%, while gross profit margins declined by 250 basis points to 34.1%. We saw headwinds from inflation in input costs, energy and production overheads, which drove comparable COGSper case higher by 14.1%. The consolidation of Egypt erodedthe gross profit margin by 70 basis points.

Comparable operating costs increased by 17.1% on theback of higher volume and Egypt, but operating costs as a percent of revenue decreased by 250 basis points to 23.7%. We benefited from good operational leverage by controlling costs as revenue growth accelerated. To seize opportunities in markets outside of Russia and Ukraine, we increased marketing spend, partially offset by cuts in Russia from March onwards.

Comparable EBIT increased by 23.0% and 32.0% on an organic and reported basis respectively, to €462.5 million. Egypt added 2 percentage points to reported growth and currency impact was positive overall as the Russian Rouble and Nigerian Naira appreciated. Comparable EBIT margin was 11.0%, up 30 basis points on an organic basis, as the combination of pricing, operating leverage and disciplined cost control more than offset higher costs.

Net profit and free cash flow

Comparable net profit of €316.9 million and comparable basic earnings per share of €0.865 were 34.5% and 33.9% higher than in the prior year period, respectively. Reported net profit and reported basic earnings per share during the period were €152.9 million and €0.418 respectively, mainly due to impairment charges relating to our operations in Russia.

Comparable taxes amounted to €104.8 million, representing a comparable tax rate of 24.9%, 80 basis points lower than the rate in the prior year period.

Financing costs were €42.7 million in the year, €8.0 million higher compared to the prior-year period, in line with expectations.

Capital expenditure reached €199.7 million, €19 million lower than the prior-year period. Capex as a percentage of revenue was below our targeted range at 4.7%. We expect to return to our guidance range of 6.5% to 7.5% by the end of the year.

Free cash flow was €332.9 million, an increase of €55.4 million compared to the prior year, mainly driven by higher profitability.

Earning our license to operate

We are committed to enhancing biodiversity by reducing emissions and water use, preserving and re-instating water priority areas, and by sourcing agricultural ingredients sustainably. In June 2022, we joined the Science Based Targets Network (SBTN) corporate engagement programme and will work to implement the SBTN's guidance. We have committed to achieving a net positive impact on biodiversity in critical areas in our operations and supply chain by 2040 and eliminate deforestation in our supply chain by 2030.

We continue to make progress on packaging. Switzerland was a focus market for two packaging improvements in Q2. We launched Valser water in label-free bottles in the market. In addition, as part of pack/price architecture adjustment in Switzerland in June, we launched our entire Swiss portfolio in rPET. We are planning 100% rPET launches in additional markets by the end of the year while we continue to navigate very limited availability of rPET. We are working actively to promote and support the launch of well-designed,industry-led, deposit return or collection schemes to improve collection rates and increase rPET supply.
