Strategic report

Alternative performance measures

This review includes alternative performance measures (APMs) that are presented in addition to the standard International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) metrics.

The APMs are adjusted operating profit/(loss), adjusted EBITDA, adjusted finance costs, adjusted profit/(loss) before tax, adjusted earnings per share (EPS), free cash flow and cash conversion %, adjusted ROCE and net debt.

The definitions of the APMs used are listed below:

  • adjusted operating profit/(loss) is operating profit/ (loss) before the amortisation of intangible assets and exceptional items;
  • adjusted EBITDA means adjusted operating profit/(loss) before depreciation and amortisation;
  • adjusted finance costs excludes exceptional finance costs incurred in respect of the independent business review;
  • adjusted profit/(loss) before tax is based on adjusted operating profit/(loss) less adjusted finance costs;
  • adjusted EPS is based on the Group's profit/(loss) for the year adjusted for the items excluded from operating profit/(loss) in arriving at adjusted operating profit/ (loss), the unwinding of discount on provisions and the tax relating to those items;
  • free cash flow is defined as cash generated from continuing operations before exceptional items and cash conversion % is defined as free cash flow as a percentage of adjusted EBITDA;
  • adjusted ROCE is defined as total adjusted operating profit/(loss) from continuing operations divided by average year-end capital employed. Capital employed is defined as the total of goodwill and other intangible assets, property, plant and equipment, right-of-use assets, inventories, trade and other receivables less trade and other payables; and
  • net debt consists of cash and cash equivalents, overdrafts, bank and other loans and lease liabilities.
