Cautionary language regarding forward-looking statements

This Site may contain statements, estimates or projections that involve risks and uncertainties and which constitute "forward-looking statements" as defined under U.S. federal or International securities laws. In some cases, we use words such as "believe," "outlook," "guidance," "intend," "expect," "anticipate," "plan," "target" and similar expressions to identify forward-looking statements.

All statements other than statements of historical facts, including, among others, statements regarding our future financial position and results, business strategy, our future dealings with The Coca-Cola Company, budgets, projected levels of consumption and production, projected costs, estimates of capital expenditure and plans and objectives of management for future operations, are forward-looking statements. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. By their nature, forward-looking statements involve risk and uncertainty because they reflect our current expectations and assumptions as to future events and circumstances that may not prove accurate.

Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements for many reasons, including, but not limited to, our ability to finance expansion plans, share repurchase programs and general operating activities; changes in the non-alcoholic beverages business environment, including actions of competitors and changes in consumer preferences; regulatory and legal changes; fluctuations in the cost and availability of raw materials; interest rate and currency fluctuations; changes in economic and political conditions; our ability to penetrate developing and emerging markets; the effectiveness of our advertising and marketing programs; litigation uncertainties; adverse weather conditions; and other risks discussed in Coca-Cola HBC AG’ s Annual Report (IFRS) and Coca-Cola HBC AG’ filings with the London Stock Exchange.

Coca-Cola HBC undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements. We cannot assure you that our future results, level of activity, performance or achievements will meet the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements. Moreover, neither we nor any other person assume responsibility for the accuracy and completeness of the forward-looking statements. Unless we are required by law to update these statements, we will not necessarily update any of these, either to conform them to actual results or to changes in our expectations.

Nothing in the Site constitutes an invitation to invest or to buy shares/stock.
