Business outlook

We have delivered a strong start to 2024. While we expect the macroeconomic and geopolitical environment to remain challenging, we have high confidence in our 24/7 portfolio and the opportunities for growth in our diverse markets, amplified by our bespoke capabilities, and above all, the talent of our people. In 2024 we expect to make progress against our medium-term growth targets.

We are confident in reiterating our guidance for 2024:

• Achieving our mid-term target of organic revenue growth at a Group level of 6-7%
• On a comparable basis, COGS per unit case should increase low to mid-single digits through the combined effect of inflation, transactional and translational FX
• Organic EBIT growth in the range of +3% to +9%
