  • 2014 financial performance held back by Benelux and challenging economic

environment

  • FY revenue1 up 1.7% (-0.2% organic), operating profit2 down 3.7%

− More resilient Q4, revenue1 up 2.1% − 2014 revenue growth driven by Germany (+2.3%) and Latin America (+308%) -

France broadly flat (+0.3%), Benelux down 2.0%

− Profit down 3.7% largely due to Benelux (-£9.9m) impacted by continued effect of

poor service levels in 2013 and challenging economic conditions resulting in contract terminations and pricing pressure

  • Outlook for European businesses in 2015 mixed

− German, Belgian and Italian businesses experiencing positive trading conditions -

expect to make good progress

− Outlook for France and Holland more uncertain with challenging economic

conditions and competitive markets expected to continue

  • Overall profitability in the Europe region in 2015 expected to be broadly

in line with 2014

Delivering Shareholder Value

Transparent in Delivering Our Performance

2015 reporting framework

  • Full update on performance at H1 and FY, summary update on trading at Q1 and Q3
  • Organisational structure locked down and unchanged

– Five core regions – Three core categories

  • Therefore no changes to reporting structure in 2015
  • Quadrant analysis used to articulate strategy – minor changes in 2015, but no impact on formal reporting

Committed to a transparent reporting regime

SLIDE 18

Guidance for 2015

  • Central and divisional overheads in line with 2014
  • P&L impact of restructuring costs no greater than £10m
  • Interest costs c.£43m – reflecting impact of recent refinancings – cash impact slightly higher than P&L impact
  • Adjusted effective tax rate c.23.5%; cash tax payable of c.£40m
  • Impact of exchange rates on profit – adverse impact c. £14m based on current rates
  • Other cash flow guidance:

– Working capital outflow at or below £20m – Net capex c.£200m – M&A spend on acquisitions c.£50m
