DELIVERING RESULTS THROUGH OPERATIONAL FOCUS

Coca-Cola HBC AG, the second largest bottler of the brands of The Coca-Cola Company, reports its financial results for the full year ended 31 December 2014.

Fourth quarter and full-year highlights

· Volumes increased in the quarter compared to the prior-year quarter, with good performances in Russia, Nigeria, Poland, Austria and Greece; all three segments beat their nine-month volume trend, resulting in overall full-year volumes slightly better than expected
· Volume and value share continued to grow in the fourth quarter in the majority of our countries, ending the full year with higher or stable share in 16 markets in Sparkling beverages and in 10 markets in NARTD1
· In the fourth quarter, FX-neutral net sales revenue per unit case continued to improve, albeit at a slightly slower pace than in the first nine months, bringing the full-year increase to 2.5%
· In the quarter, more favourable input costs than expected in the quarter partly compensated for the significant adverse movements in currencies seen since the latter part of November, which exceeded our expectations by €15 million
· Persistent adverse currency movements and subdued volumes in the year were partly offset by revenue growth initiatives including pricing and improved package mix as well as favourable input costs, resulting in lower comparable EBIT than in the prior year; broadly stable comparable EBIT margin year on year
· Comparable EPS - down 5.6% in the year - benefited from the refinancing of debt in 2013
· The Board of Directors proposes a 0.36 Euro dividend per share (2013: 0.354 Euro)

2015 FIRST QUARTER TRADING UPDATE

TRADING IN LINE WITH EXPECTATIONS

Coca-Cola HBC AG, the second largest bottler of the brands of The Coca-Cola Company, today announces its 2015 Q1 trading update.

First quarter highlights

· Volumes increased in the quarter in all three segments compared to the prior-year quarter supported largely by four additional selling days and Easter phasing, with good performances in Nigeria, Poland, Romania, Hungary and the Czech Republic

· Established market volumes declined on a like-for-like basis at a slower pace than in the prior-year quarter; revenue was boosted by strong currencies despite the deflationary pricing environment

· In Developing markets, robust volume growth in Sparkling beverages and in the organised trade drove revenue growth despite negative pricing and mix

· In Emerging markets, a good volume performance was more than offset by adverse currency movements; the business in Nigeria performed very well across all categories in a seasonally important quarter, while Russia saw strong growth in Juice, which was offset by a decline in Sparkling

· FX-neutral net sales revenue per unit case remained stable compared to the prior-year quarter; we focused our pricing initiatives on those Emerging markets most impacted by currency headwinds, while in Established and Developing markets, affordability was an important consideration for the business in a deflationary environment
