| *Note:
Turnover, trading profit and profit before tax represent continuing
operations before exceptional items. There are no exceptional
items in the current year. In the prior year, exceptional
items comprised profit on sale of PGSI (US$76 million) and
brewery closure costs in SAB International (US$11 million).
Continuing operations exclude PGSI in the prior year. Adjusted
earnings also exclude goodwill amortisation. Percentages expressed
in terms of £ sterling movements are given in order to
aid comparability with other FTSE companies. |
