The Board expects to report adjusted operating profit and year end net debt for the year just ended in line with its expectations.

Group full-year revenue on a constant currency basis is expected to show a decline of 5% as previously announced.  Private Label full-year revenue has improved to be in line with the prior year, while revenue from our Core and Future Growth categories continued to perform well with growth of 3% compared to the prior year.  Contract manufacturing revenue declined by 27% as a consequence of the previously-announced wind-down of this segment.
