117 YEARS

Evolution has been a constant in our business. We’ve grown  
from manufacturing Australian tobacco, to manufacturing  
snacks and beverages across Europe and the Asia Pacific.  
We’ve invested in brands and bottling plants and valued an 
enduring relationship with The Coca-Cola Company for over  
55 years. We’ve become a leader in sustainable practices and 
we’re proud of our achievements in creating a better future.

CELEBRATING 
OUR HISTORY

2020 marks the final Annual Report for Coca-Cola Amatil  
as we move forward with a takeover by way of Scheme of  
Arrangement by Coca-Cola European Partners. 

To mark this historic moment we’ve taken the opportunity  
to reflect on our 117 years of growth.

We’ve enjoyed a diverse history, under many names, in many  
places. From Adelaide to Auckland via Austria, manufacturing and 
distributing quality products has always been at the heart of our 
operations, all while responding to the changing needs of customers, 
consumers and communities. We’ve delighted millions with our 
unrivalled portfolio of beverages and will continue to do so as we 
embark on the next chapter of our history with Coca-Cola   
European Partners.

WHO WE ARE

PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES

OUR PURPOSE

Coca-Cola Amatil is one of the largest bottlers and 
distributors of non-alcoholic and alcoholic ready-to-
drink beverages in the Asia Pacific region.

As both brand partner and brand owner, we operate across  
six countries – Australia, New Zealand, Indonesia, Papua  
New Guinea, Fiji and Samoa – to prepare, distribute and sell  
an unrivalled range of beverages. With decades of experience,  
we do this safely and responsibly, and are proud that our 
products delight millions of people every day.

With access to more than 270 million potential consumers 
through more than 600,000 active customers, our product range 
includes sparkling beverages, water, sports, energy, fruit juices, 
iced tea, flavoured milk, coffee, beer, cider and spirits.

We are committed to leading through innovation, and to building  
a sustainable future, capturing growth and delivering long-term 
value to our Shareholders.

We employ around 11,000 people and create thousands more  
jobs in the communities in which we operate. Across this team  
we work as one, united by a shared purpose and common values.  
We know that our diverse workforce is our greatest strength  
and makes us the vibrant company we are today.

EVERY DAY WE CREATE MILLIONS OF MOMENTS  
OF HAPPINESS AND POSSIBILITIES

Our future is shaped by our purpose and our values form the 
foundation of our culture. Our purpose unites all of us and 
focuses our energy. It reflects the scale of our business and the 
millions of people we connect with directly and through our 
products. It’s about what we do every day and the possibilities  
we are creating for the future for Shareholders and society.

OUR VALUES

WE ARE 
STRAIGHT-
FORWARD AND 
OPEN

WE TAKE THE 
INITIATIVE  
AND OWN  
THE OUTCOME

WE FOCUS  
ON TODAY AND 
TOMORROW

Our Values are the basis for how we work together and operate. 
They guide our behaviours and our decisions, every day.

OUR AMBITION

TO BE A REGIONAL BEVERAGES POWERHOUSE

Our Ambition is to be a Regional Beverages Powerhouse in the 
Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) and Oceania 
regions as we look to grow within categories, across geographies 
and along the beverages value chain. We have a clear growth 
platform that builds on our expert knowledge of the beverages 
market in ASEAN and Oceania, our leading portfolio of brands, 
and our track record of delivering innovation.

COCA-COLA AMATIL ANNUAL REPORT 2020OUR GROUP STRATEGY

Our Group strategy is our blueprint for success. It positions us to capture growth and deliver long-term value. We know that our 
markets will continue to change. We are confident in our ability to adapt and adjust to capitalise on opportunities and address 
challenges as and when they arise. As a Group, we are focused on two overarching objectives – Perform and Grow. The success 
of both is built on a foundation of a Strong Organisation.

PERFORM

GROW

The Perform objective is guided by our Shareholder Value Proposition and is 
our primary day-to-day focus. The three strategic pillars within this – Lead, 
Execute, Partner – were defined as part of our 2014 strategic review and are 
the basis on which our businesses structure their plans. 

LEAD
Strengthen Category Leadership Position

–  Leading brands in each of our major categories in each market 

–  Up-weighted levels of innovative marketing continually strengthening brand equity 

–  Evolving portfolio that adapts to changing consumer preferences

EXECUTE
Step Change in Productivity and In-Market Execution 

–  World-class customer servicing capability 

–  Route-to-market that provides customer diversification and competitive 

advantage 

–  Effective leverage of our large-scale, low-cost manufacturing, sales and 

distribution capability

PARTNER
Better Alignment with The Coca-Cola Company and Our Other Brand Partners

–  Shared vision of success and aligned objectives 

–  Joint plans for growing System profitability 

–  Balanced share of risk and rewards

We are a strong organisation with a proven ability to adapt and capitalise  
on opportunities to further grow our portfolio of brands and businesses. 
Our growth agenda positions us to deliver long-term sustainable returns  
to our Shareholders.

Our ambition is to be a Regional Beverages Powerhouse. To achieve this,  
we are looking to be ‘the leading beverages business in the ASEAN and 
Oceania region’. 

Our growth agenda seeks to maximise opportunities and position us to 
deliver long-term sustainable returns to our Shareholders. We have a 
clear growth platform that focuses on:

GROWTH WITHIN CATEGORIES
–  Innovation with our brand partners and selective Mergers and Acquisitions  

in existing and new beverage categories 

–  New beverage categories in existing markets

GROWTH ACROSS GEOGRAPHIES
– Entering new geographies in existing beverage categories 

–  Immediate focus on South East Asia and Oceania based on our current 

operations, future growth prospects and potential for synergies 

GROWTH ALONG THE VALUE CHAIN
–  Vertical integration and extensions of our existing value chain in current 
geographies – increasing the role we play in getting our great beverages  
into the hands of consumers. 

STRONG ORGANISATION

Our ability to deliver our performance and achieve our growth aspirations is underpinned by a Strong Organisation with strong, accountable businesses,  
a One Amatil mindset led by the Group Leadership Team and a lean Group centre that safeguards and shapes our future. 

A ONE AMATIL MINDSET
We believe the Group Leadership Team has a shared accountability for a One Amatil mindset so we are making decisions that are in the best interests of Amatil overall. 
There are many opportunities to share learnings, leverage expertise and share services. 

A LEAN GROUP OFFICE
An essential component of our model is a lean Group Office, which provides functional leadership to support our businesses and a One Amatil approach to safeguarding 
and shaping our future. This ensures we operate in line with the expectations of our Board, realise our ambition of becoming a Regional Beverages Powerhouse and create 
long-term value for Shareholders and for society. 

OUR LONG-TERM VALUE PROPOSITION

In 2019 we redefined our approach to how we create long-term, sustainable value in our organisation. We believe that creating 
value for society is completely integrated and consistent with the way we deliver value to Shareholders. As we pursue growth, 
we do so through the lens of seeking positive impacts for our people, customers, partners, consumers, the environment and our 
community. We will continue to refine how we measure our performance against this model so that our Shareholders and 
stakeholders can hold us accountable as we fulfil our strategic ambition of being a Regional Beverages Powerhouse. 

In 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic has strongly reinforced society’s expectations that businesses should serve the needs of 
employees, protect the environment, and deal fairly with partners - at the same time as meeting the interests of Shareholders. 

In the current economic conditions, more than ever it is critical that our customers are the central focus of our strategy, aligning 
our resources to the activities that they most value and the activities that drive growth.

REVIEW

THE MOMENTS THAT DEFINE AN ORGANISATION ARE USUALLY 
THRUST UPON THEM. 

What can be controlled is how organisations respond  
in these moments, and 2020 has been a defining 
period for Amatil. Through the bushfires in Australia 
and severe floods in Indonesia early in the year, 
followed by the outbreak of COVID-19 across all our 
markets, and the significant disruption these events 
caused, we continued to execute on our strategy to 
deliver long-term sustainable value for our customers, 
people, partners, consumers, the environment and our 
Shareholders. Then, in the final quarter of 2020 came 
the proposal by Coca-Cola European Partners (CCEP)  
to acquire Amatil.

What are you most proud of achieving in 2020?

Ilana: I’m particularly proud of the way our Board, 
management and all our people worked through these 
extraordinary circumstances, displaying courage, agility  
and resilience to deliver on our three immediate priorities:  
to ensure the health, safety and wellbeing of our people;  
to support the resilience of our customers and stakeholders; 
and to safeguard the continuity of our operations and 
financial flexibility. 

Alison: I’m extremely proud of all our people, and the way 
they responded to the challenges of 2020. Their commitment 
and dedication to helping each other and our stakeholders 
has been inspiring. 

We entered 2020 with strong financial foundations in place  
and a resilient business model and were able to deal with the 
challenges that arose. By reacting swiftly to the rapid escalation 
of the COVID-19 pandemic across all our markets, being agile in 
our response, and leveraging the strengths of the Coca-Cola 
System, we’ve been able to protect what makes our business 
strong. Our people have risen to the challenge, knowing we 
needed to move fast to adapt to a very different environment. 
There were changes to categories and channels, customer 
requirements and expectations, and therefore the opportunities 
for how we distribute and sell our leading portfolio of beverages. 
As a result, we’re well positioned to emerge from the pandemic 
crisis stronger and better than before.

How has Amatil performed in 2020?

Alison: Our results showed that through a challenging  
period Amatil continued to deliver for our customers and 
partners, while supporting our people and our communities, 
and delivering Shareholder value. Our overall financial 
performance under tough conditions, in particular our strong 
cash realisation, reduction in net debt and tight management 
of costs, is a testament to the strength of our business and 
the tenacity of our people, partners and customers. 

Our performance was defined by significant adverse impacts in 
the first half of 2020 as a result of widespread outlet closures 
and restricted trading, followed by a marked improvement in the 
second half, which demonstrated our ability to quickly respond 
in markets where COVID-19 infection rates declined and 
mobility restrictions were eased. As a result, the business was 
able to limit the impacts on financial performance, with Group 
revenue for 2020 declining by only 6.1 per cent and volumes 
declining by 8.4 per cent. 

8

COCA-COLA AMATIL ANNUAL REPORT 2020Helping to partially offset these declines was the 
implementation of our ‘Fighting Fit’ cost optimisation program. 

In recognition of the improved trading performance in the 
second half, the Board declared a fully franked final ordinary 
dividend of 18 cents per share.

From a strategic perspective, a highlight of 2020 was our ability 
to achieve market share gains in Australia, New Zealand and 
Indonesia – driven by the strong performance of the Coca-Cola 
Trademark – reflecting the fact that during challenging times, 
consumers turn to their favourite beverage brands. Also 
pleasing was our strong trading performance in the all-
important fourth quarter Christmas period in both Australia  
and New Zealand.

In keeping with Amatil’s value proposition, how has the 
company delivered for its customers and communities?

Ilana: In 2020 the COVID-19 pandemic has strongly reinforced 
society’s expectations that businesses should serve the 
needs of employees, protect the environment, and deal fairly 
with customers and partners - at the same time delivering 
value for Shareholders. These are expectations we have of 
ourselves, and in responding to the pandemic, it was 
important to all of us to do what’s right for our communities 
and remain true to our Purpose, Values and Value Proposition.

At the heart of our Value Proposition are our thriving customers. 
We deliver quality, reliability, convenience and service to more 
than 630,000 customers across our six geographies. For our 
many customers, ranging from small and medium-sized 
businesses to large grocery chains, the impacts of COVID-19 
varied greatly, as did their requirements. It was imperative that 
we provided our customers with the support they needed, not 
only to survive during the pandemic but to the extent possible, 
help them thrive in the medium to long term. Initiatives included: 
helping many of our smaller On-The-Go (OTG) customers to 
pivot and quickly reshape their businesses, facilitating 
e-commerce and food aggregator opportunities to help them 
sell online; adapting our logistics network to deliver direct to 
stores and locations not typically part of our network; and in 
Australia, we established a free 24-hour customer support 
service to provide confidential counselling and financial 
coaching to all Amatil customers.

Our support for consumers and communities included providing 
cash and beverage donations across our markets. For example, 
in Australia we worked with Optus Stadium in Perth and the 
MCG in Melbourne to donate beverages to food charity groups 
OzHarvest and Second Bite. In Indonesia and Fiji, we produced 
and donated hand sanitiser to front line workers. 

What has Amatil done to keep its people engaged,  
safe and supported during 2020?

Alison: Amatil has an unrelenting focus on keeping our people 
safe, engaged and supported. In 2020, employee initiatives 
included expanding hygiene and safety measures across all our 
locations, and rolling out ‘work-from-anywhere’ arrangements. 

I’M EXTREMELY PROUD OF ALL  
OUR PEOPLE, AND THE WAY THEY 
RESPONDED TO THE CHALLENGES  
OF 2020. THEIR COMMITMENT AND 
DEDICATION TO HELPING EACH OTHER 
AND OUR STAKEHOLDERS HAS BEEN 
INSPIRING. 

Regular communication with our people has been another 
critical initiative with programs including the launch of hygiene, 
physical distancing awareness and wellbeing campaigns. I’m 
pleased to report that in Australia, for example, we had over 
4,500 employees attend a range of online health and wellbeing 
sessions. And in Papua New Guinea and Samoa we worked  
with our local partners to provide our people and their families 
with care packs of staple foods to help support them during  
this difficult time.

In addition to the health and safety of our people, we also 
prioritised job protection through redeployment programs in 
Australia and New Zealand. In Australia, for example, during  
the peak of the country’s COVID-19 restrictions we redeployed 
250 State Immediate Consumption field team members into  
our Grocery channel.

From a people perspective it was heartening to achieve an 
improvement in our employee engagement scores in 2020  
and the beginning of 2021 – a great outcome given the unique 
circumstances that COVID-19 presented, with our people 
working remotely and redeployment required to address 
channel closures when COVID-19 lockdown restrictions  
were implemented.

Recent safety results showed that between 2012 and 2020 total 
employee injuries across the Group fell by 76 per cent. While we 
are pleased with the progress, we know there is always more to 
be done. 

Sadly, our Indonesian business reported three traffic-related 
fatalities in 2020.1 Such loss of life is unacceptable to us. In all 
cases, immediate investigations were conducted and corrective 
actions applied. We know there is always more to be done and 
we continue to share safety learnings across our operations and 
geographies. We invest in significant driver training programs 
across all countries; but particularly in Indonesia, where we’ve 
expanded these beyond our employees and contractors to the 
broader community.

Sadly also, there have been four COVID-19-related fatalities 
amongst Amatil employees in our Indonesian business in  
2020. There were no other COVID-19-related fatalities amongst 
employees in other countries. 

Our condolences go to the families, colleagues and friends  
of those we lost. 

1  When reporting on loss of life we include all work-related incidents where employees or contractors have died, or which have occurred on-site;  

and all incidents involving members of the public, where, post-investigation, Coca-Cola Amatil or its contractors were found to be at fault.

THE VALUE  WE CREATEPERFORMANCE GOVERNANCE  & RISKSFINANCIAL  & STATUTORY REPORTSOTHER  INFORMATIONOUR  BUSINESSCHAIRMAN’S & GROUP MANAGING 
DIRECTOR’S REVIEW (CONTINUED)

We are an active member of the Coca-Cola System and a 
market leader in core beverage categories; we have a broad 
product range and diverse channels to reach customers and 
consumers; we operate adaptable infrastructure in each of our 
geographies; we employ outstanding and committed people; 
and we have a strong balance sheet, ample liquidity and robust 
credit ratings. This combination has us well positioned to come 
through the other side, stronger and ready to accelerate our 
growth ambitions.

On behalf of the Board, thank you to every Amatil team member 
for your valuable contribution. Your energy, effort, commitment 
and resilience were central to our success in 2020.

Alison: Financially and operationally we are in a strong position. 
We have a clear approach in place to ensure we capitalise on 
opportunities and build on our strategy, while remaining focused 
on our Value Proposition. 

In the immediate term we remain focused on driving market 
share gains, growing our presence in e-commerce and delivering 
our Fighting Fit cost efficiencies. Within these areas a number 
of opportunities exist. 

Firstly, reshaping our portfolio to meet changing consumer 
demand. This includes responding to the move to brands that 
people know and trust, the growth of in-home consumption and 
entertaining, and an increasing focus on affordability. For us, 
this means an exciting opportunity to look at things like our 
multi-serve range and pack-size options. 

Secondly, driving strong performance in high-demand products, 
such as our core range, which includes Coca-Cola low and no 
sugar options, as well as our energy category. 

The third area of opportunity is amplifying our online presence 
and enhancing our product range across e-commerce platforms.

In realising these opportunities, the cornerstones for our 
success will be taking a very targeted approach by market and 
channel, leveraging our data-driven initiatives, and maintaining  
a customer-centric focus across all aspects of our business.

I would like to acknowledge the enormous contribution of our 
passionate people. Thank you for your hard work, tenacity and 
commitment, particularly in responding to the unprecedented 
challenges we faced this year. I also wish to express my 
gratitude to our customers, partners and the many other 
stakeholders in the Amatil family for your support and 
collaboration. 

How did the proposal to acquire Amatil evolve?

Ilana: The proposal from CCEP was originally announced on 
26 October 2020 via a non-binding indicative proposal. On 
4 November 2020, we announced that Amatil had entered into  
a Scheme Implementation Deed with CCEP for the acquisition 
of all of the issued shares held by independent Shareholders 
pursuant to a Scheme of Arrangement (‘Scheme’) at an offer 
price of $12.75 (less the 2H 2020 dividend). We also announced 
that CCEP had entered into a separate agreement to acquire the 
Amatil shares indirectly held by The Coca-Cola Company, 
conditional upon implementation of the Scheme. 

What progress has Amatil made in advancing  
its sustainability commitments? 

Ilana: In 2018 Amatil released a set of sustainability strategies 
and public goals to be achieved by the end of 2020. Despite the 
challenges we faced during the year, sustainability continued to 
be a priority and I’m pleased to report we achieved many of our 
2020 Sustainability Goals1 including: 

 — a 10 per cent sugar reduction in Australia; and

 — having 50 per cent of recycled PET in our Australian 

portfolio. 

Highlighting our long-term commitment to sustainability,  
we recently launched Amatil’s ‘2020-2040 Sustainability 
Ambitions’, comprising a range of 10 bold sustainability 
objectives designed to make a distinct and positive contribution 
between now and 2040, to the communities and markets in 
which we operate. Included in these ambitions is our 
commitment to: 

 — achieving net zero carbon emissions by 2040;

 — 100 per cent renewable electricity in Australia and  

New Zealand by 2025;

 — reducing sugar (grams per 100ml) across our non-alcoholic 
beverages portfolio by 35 per cent in Indonesia and 20 per 
cent in Australia and New Zealand by 2025 (vs 2015); and

 — partnering for pack-to-pack recycling solutions in all 

countries where we operate by 2030 and designing for 
100 per cent recyclability across all packaging.

How is Amatil positioned to emerge stronger  
and better in 2021 and beyond? 

Ilana: As we embark on the next chapter of Amatil’s history, 
under the stewardship of a new owner, we are uniquely placed 
to emerge a stronger, better business. Our strong performance 
in 2020 given the challenging circumstances, combined with  
the underlying strength of our business and the measures 
implemented to enhance our financial flexibility, ensures we 
have a good foundation to withstand the ongoing challenges 
of COVID-19. 

1  Amatil’s 2020 Sustainability Report to be published in May 2021 will include detailed information on performance and progress against the 2020 goals.

STAKEHOLDERS CAN LOOK FORWARD 
TO THE FUTURE WITH OPTIMISM AND 
EXCITEMENT, GIVEN THE INCREASING 
POSSIBILITIES FOR MUTUAL SUCCESS 
THAT THE TRANSACTION WILL 
PROVIDE.

On 15 February 2021, we announced that Amatil had entered 
into a revised agreement with CCEP that increased the total 
cash consideration that independent Shareholders will receive 
under the Scheme, to $13.50 (less the 2H 2020 dividend). 

On 16 April 2021 an Amatil Scheme Meeting was held where 
independent Shareholders voted to approve the Scheme, 
resulting in a change of ownership. We are now going through 
the final steps of this process. When it is completed, 
Shareholders will be paid and Amatil will delist from the 
Australian Securities Exchange. Accordingly, we anticipate this 
will be our final Annual Report as an ASX-listed company.

What does the acquisition mean for Amatil?

Alison: Amatil has a strong culture, with tremendous people, a 
diverse portfolio of products, and well-established partnerships 
and customer relationships, built over many years. 

We are confident that the acquisition will only strengthen our 
business across each of our operating regions. 

CCEP is a leader in one of the largest FMCG sectors in Europe’s 
most significant markets. It is the world’s largest independent 
Coca-Cola bottler by revenue, with a portfolio of 54 brands, 
operating in 13 countries, serving 1 million outlets and over 
300 million consumers, and employs around 23,500 people. 

Importantly, CCEP is a highly respected and successful 
Coca-Cola bottler with strong alignment to Amatil in relation  
to culture, commitment to customers and creation of 
stakeholder value.

Amatil’s employees, customers, partners and many other 
stakeholders can look forward to the future with optimism  
and excitement, given the increasing possibilities for mutual 
success that the transaction will provide.

THE VALUE  WE CREATEPERFORMANCE GOVERNANCE  & RISKSFINANCIAL  & STATUTORY REPORTSOTHER  INFORMATIONOUR  BUSINESSOUR RESPONSE  
TO 2020

2020 was a year like no other. Not only did it mark the 
start of the COVID-19 pandemic which saw changes 
to all aspects of life, we also experienced ravaging 
bushfires in Australia and devastating floods in 
Indonesia and Papua New Guinea. 

We responded to these events with resilience, care and an 
unwavering focus on safety. Throughout the devastation, 
change and uncertainty, our business continued to operate  
as an essential service provider, bottling the beverages that 
our consumers love and delivering them to customers across 
our markets. 

BEING THERE WHEN NATURAL DISASTERS STRIKE
 — During the December 2019 and January 2020 period 

Australia was affected by some of the worst bushfires on 
record. We provided immediate support of water and other 
Amatil beverages to those fighting and affected by the fires, 
donation of funds to aid the recovery effort for affected 
communities and financial assistance for our customers 
impacted by the fire zones.

Share a Coke with the Firies cans were created exclusively for fire 
fighters and other volunteers as an expression of thanks and were 
distributed to volunteer fire organisations in fire-affected communities 
at no cost.

 — The Greater Jakarta Region and several other locations in 
Indonesia were hit by severe floods at the start of 2020.  
The impact caused by the floods affected not only our 
people and our communities, but also their homes and  
our facilities, including the flooding of our Cibitung Plant.

 — In April, Papua New Guinea was hit with a devastating flood 
that left many in the community without vital everyday-living 
essentials. Our people donated funds and critical resources 
to the Gulf Flood Appeal, supporting local communities  
get back on their feet.

community.

PUTTING THE HEALTH, SAFETY AND WELLBEING OF OUR PEOPLE, 
CUSTOMERS AND COMMUNITY FIRST DURING COVID-19
 — In Fiji, Indonesia and Australia we demonstrated our 

adaptability and community focus and kept our people and 
factories busy by manufacturing thousands of litres of hand 
sanitiser to protect vulnerable communities and front-line 
workers. 

 — In Indonesia, New Zealand and Fiji our front-line teams 

continued to service customer needs by developing and 
delivering safety screens for point-of-sale social distancing 
at no cost to the customer.

 — In Papua New Guinea, we delivered 1,250 care packs to our 

people and their families in remote communities.

 — In Australia, our Employee Assistance Program was extended 
to all customers to support them as they navigated through 
the pandemic.

SUPPORTING OUR CUSTOMERS TO ADAPT AND EVOLVE DURING 
THE PANDEMIC
 — In Australia, we launched a food-service aggregator which 

contained product and bundle images for customers to use 
on food-service aggregator apps in order to pivot their 
business into the digital world. To support our customers 
who were making this transition we created a dedicated 
customer service line to assist with enquiries quickly  
and efficiently. 

 — In New Zealand, to support the hospitality industry which 
was affected by the lockdown, we developed the ‘First  
Coke On Us’ campaign to drive foot traffic into bars and 
restaurants by treating Kiwis to a free non-alcoholic  
beverage of their choice.

 — In Indonesia, we launched an entrepreneurship training 
program to support customers and the wider business 
community to drive economic recovery. 

COCA-COLA AMATIL ANNUAL REPORT 20203.  Ensuring business continuity and financial flexibility 

 — Established an appropriate governance structure to  

steer us through the pandemic featuring daily business 
community and risk reviews involving business leadership 
teams and our Board of Directors, along with ongoing 
monitoring and adaption of our COVID-19 response plan.

 — To reinforce financial flexibility we stress tested our 

balance sheet, P&L and liquidity position across a range of 
scenarios and withdrew our dividend payout ratio guidance. 
Adding to our financial strength, the Company successfully 
completed a $200 million 10-year European Medium-Term 
Note placement on 6 April 2020. 

 — Supply chain continuity was a high priority. We reviewed  
our supply chain plans regularly and swiftly adapted our 
production patterns to manage the shift in portfolio mix. 

 — Implemented cost saving measures to bring expenditure  
in line with the COVID-19 trading environment. Given the 
prevailing uncertainty as to the duration of the lockdowns 
and the ultimate impact on the broader economies we 
operate in, we decided that it was prudent to defer 
non-critical projects thereby reducing our capital 
expenditure for the 2020 financial year from $300 million 
to $210 million. We also identified $140 million of cost 
savings for the 2020 financial year through the removal  
of marketing and non-essential spend. 

OUR RESPONSE TO COVID-19

In April 2020 we activated a focused response to adapt to the 
challenges of COVID-19. At the first signs of impact on our 
business, we implemented cross-functional business 
continuity teams and pandemic plans targeted at three areas: 
(1) to ensure the health, safety and wellbeing of our people;  
(2) to support the resilience of our customers and stakeholders; 
and (3) to safeguard the continuity of our operations and 
financial flexibility.

1. Protecting our people 

 — Expanded hygiene and safety measures across all offices 

and facilities, implemented ‘work from home’ arrangements, 
and where appropriate, repatriated expatriate employees. 

 — Regular communication with our people has been a critical 
component of our response with various communications 
initiatives including the launch of hygiene, social distancing 
awareness and wellbeing campaigns. 

 — In Papua New Guinea and Samoa we worked with our local 
partners to provide our people and their families with care 
packs of staple foods to support them during the pandemic.

2. Supporting our stakeholders

 — Provided our customers with the support they need not only 
to survive the pandemic but, to the extent possible, to thrive 
in the medium to long term. In addition, we redeployed our 
people and resources to better serve and support customers 
with high demand, in line with channel mix shifts. Initiatives 
included a free 24-hour customer support and counselling 
service for Australian customers, facilitating the ability for 
our customers to sell online through food aggregators, 
repayment plans where appropriate and adapting our 
logistics network to deliver direct to stores not typically  
part of the network. 

 — Leveraged global bottler partner learnings to assist with 

forecasting and planning.

 — Maintained production of high-quality products and 

supported our communities through product donations.  
For example, in Fiji, our Paradise Beverage distillery was  
part of a consortium that obtained approval to produce  
over 25,000 litres of hand sanitiser for donation to Fijian 
health workers and citizens. 

 — Shareholders have been updated regularly through  

ASX announcements throughout April, May, July and October 
2020 and via a full year trading update in January 2021.

SHAREHOLDER  
VALUE PROPOSITION

Our Shareholder Value Proposition guides our 
approach to the management of our diverse markets 
and portfolio, and targets the contribution each part  
of our business makes to the overall Group outcome. 
It is a tangible demonstration of our commitment to 
being accountable to our Shareholders. 

It is based on our competitive advantages, defining a 
compelling investment case and the components that 
will create Shareholder value.

INVESTMENT CASE

Predominantly a Coca-Cola franchisee with leading 
brands
Our partnership with The Coca-Cola Company gives us access 
to a portfolio of leading brands in a diverse range of categories, 
underpinned by decades of best-in-class marketing and 
product innovation. 

Our portfolio of non-alcoholic ready-to-drink and alcoholic 
beverages is also strengthened by other partnerships and by a 
small number of our own brands. These partnerships give us 
access to other international premium brands which assist us in 
securing market-leading positions and creating additional value. 

These relationships are described in the section ‘Committed 
Partners’. 

Route-to-market with scale and reach
We have an established and unrivalled sales and distribution 
network serving a wide range of customers. 

Our customer base varies between markets, but invariably 
includes small and large supermarkets, corner stores, fuel 
stations, cafes and restaurants across modern and traditional 
trade and increasingly through digital platforms. 

This sales and distribution network is one of our success 
factors as it gives us an accelerated platform to launch new 
products and achieve wide customer reach. 

Additionally, the provision of our branded fridges and vending 
machines gives us significant shelf space in all the markets in 
which we operate. 

Large-scale, modern, low-cost infrastructure 
We pride ourselves on being a world-class beverages company, 
continuously investing in efficiency and capacity for all our 
sites and in all our markets. 

The scale of our operations and quality of our products makes 
us one of the most successful and competitive beverage 
suppliers in the Asia-Pacific region. 

We benefit from enviable economies of scale that allow us  
to produce a wide range of products and serve a large number 
of customers.

Steady cash flow from core Australia and New Zealand 
franchises
Our balanced exposure towards developed markets supports 
the sustainability of our business model. 

Our developed markets – Australia and New Zealand –  
generate strong cash flow, supporting the payment of  
attractive dividends while maintaining our ability to  
reinvest in the business to create an even stronger future. 

Growth opportunities including Indonesia and  
Alcohol & Coffee portfolio providing upside
Our developed markets are supported by our strong market 
position in our Alcohol & Coffee portfolio. 

In Indonesia, our geographic and customer reach, combined 
with our multi-category approach, makes us unique and 
positions us well to capture the growth we expect in this market. 

EBIT DRIVERS

Revenue growth and continuous cost focus across  
the Group
Revenue growth and continuous cost focus form the 
foundations of our business plans. These are two important 
building blocks underpinning our ability to grow earnings and 
cash flow.

Appropriate EBIT targets 
We have set medium-term EBIT targets for each of our 
businesses which reflect the market and our position within it. 
Our near-term targets take account of our recent performance 
and plans. 

EPS DRIVERS

Capex
We allocate modest capex for our developed markets with the 
view to maximising returns for our Shareholders. Indonesia 
remains an exciting growth market and we are investing in this 
market to maximise its potential.

Working capital management
Our focus on effective and efficient management of working 
capital resources drives strong cash generation particularly 
across our Australia and New Zealand businesses.

Bolt-on acquisitions and capital management initiatives 
Our priorities for cash are to create value for our Shareholders 
by investing in revenue growth plans, operational efficiencies 
and selective bolt-on acquisitions in existing and new 
beverage categories that strengthen our market leadership 
and our portfolio of beverages. Furthermore, we seek 
opportunities for vertical integration and extensions across 
the value chain.

The Board regularly reviews our capital structure to ensure it 
remains appropriate for our business. It is important that we 
maximise Shareholder returns while also providing sufficient 
funds to support the needs of the business. 

SHAREHOLDER VALUE CREATION

Mid-single digit EPS growth
The aggregation of all these elements underpins our 
expectation to deliver mid-single digit ongoing EPS growth  
over the medium term. Despite the continued impacts of 
COVID-19 on our markets, our EPS ambition remains.

Attractive dividends
After investing to support and maintain the long-term  
growth prospects of the business, we pay our Shareholders 
attractive dividends. 

During 2020, we suspended dividend guidance, while  
we assessed the impacts of COVID-19 on our markets. 
Recognising the importance of dividends to our Shareholders, 
in August 2020 our Board declared an interim dividend  
of 9 cents per share (57.5 per cent payout ratio). 

A final dividend for 2020 of 18 cents per share was declared 
in February 2021. The proposed consideration under the 
Scheme of Arrangement (Scheme) with CCEP, of $13.50 per 
share, is inclusive of the FY20 final dividend. As such the 
18cps dividend enables available franking credits to be 
distributed to our Shareholders in anticipation of Shareholder 
approval to complete the Scheme.

Strong balance sheet and return on capital employed
We expect that our balance sheet will remain conservative 
with flexibility to fund future growth opportunities.

We expect to maintain a strong return on capital employed.

BRAND  
PARTNERS

We have a long and proud history of working closely 
with brand partners to manufacture, sell and distribute 
a portfolio of world class brands. We work with each 
partner to make sure we grow our businesses together, 
on a foundation of collaboration and trust. 

Marketing
Coca-Cola Amatil and The Coca-Cola Company’s affiliates 
work together on marketing activities on a country by country 
basis, with expenditure allocated annually and subject to 
revision throughout the year.

OUR RELATIONSHIP WITH THE COCA-COLA COMPANY 
Coca-Cola Amatil has a long-standing relationship with The 
Coca-Cola Company, which is both a Shareholder and brand 
owner. We are proud to have been a Coca-Cola bottler and 
distributor since 1965.

Our relationship with The Coca-Cola Company has evolved 
over the years, driven by the need for agility, responsiveness 
and proximity to the customer and consumer. Our relationship 
is marked by a new level of financial and strategic alignment 
as well as a shared vision of growth that positions us to win  
in increasingly competitive and fast-paced operating 
environments. 

We prepare, import, sell and distribute a range of products of 
The Coca-Cola Company and its affiliates and have a range of 
different agreements with them, reflecting the nature of those 
products and our role in different markets.

Our relationship with The Coca-Cola Company and its 
affiliates is governed in our various markets by bottlers’, 
distributors’ and license agreements which set out the 
respective rights and responsibilities of Coca-Cola Amatil 
and The Coca-Cola Company or its relevant affiliate. These 
agreements are typically 10 years in duration and have 
consistently been extended or renewed.

Our agreements with The Coca-Cola Company and its 
affiliates provide us exclusive rights to prepare, package,  
sell or distribute the relevant trademarked products of  
The Coca-Cola Company and its affiliate in a territory.  
Our agreements contain obligations in relation to production  
and marketing requirements of The Coca-Cola Company.

The Coca-Cola Company and its affiliates take overall 
responsibility for the consumer marketing of their products, 
for product innovation and research and development, and 
the supply of proprietary concentrates and beverage bases  
to Coca-Cola Amatil. 

Coca-Cola Amatil is responsible for determining the pricing  
of products offered to customers. 

Raw Materials 
The raw materials we use in our beverages include 
concentrate/beverage base, water, sugar and other 
sweeteners, carbon dioxide gas, glass and PET bottles, 
aluminium cans, closures and other packaging materials. 

Concentrate/beverage base constitutes our largest individual 
raw material cost which we purchase from The Coca-Cola 
Company. The price of concentrate/beverage base has 
historically been determined annually on a country by country 
basis. Concentrate/beverage base is priced and paid in the 
local currency of each Coca-Cola Amatil territory except in 
Papua New Guinea where it is priced in Kina and paid in USD.

18

The Coca-Cola Company’s marketing focuses on consumer 
awareness and advertising, while our marketing focuses on 
sales and point of sale execution, customer service, and our 
range of packaging options. We are also focused on increasing 
the number of points of sale through investing in distribution 
and cold drink equipment.

Restrictions & Consents
Generally, our arrangements with The Coca-Cola Company 
prohibit us from producing, promoting or selling any non-
alcoholic beverage without The Coca-Cola Company’s 
consent. However, with The Coca-Cola Company’s consent, 
we own outright and distribute the following brands: Mount 
Franklin, Kirks, Deep Spring, Bisleri Chinotto, L&P and Pump 
(in New Zealand). We are also required to gain consent from 
The Coca-Cola Company for distributing or storing any 
products, other than those of The Coca-Cola Company, in 
vehicles or equipment that has The Coca-Cola Company 
branding. 

Coca-Cola System Benefits
Over the past years we have worked to broaden and deepen 
our relationship with The Coca-Cola Company to unlock many 
of the benefits that come with being part of the Coca-Cola 
System.

In addition to access to leading iconic beverages such as 
Coca-Cola, Sprite and Fanta, we have had access to new 
products via a strong innovation pipeline and a strengthened 
M&A capability.

Other benefits of being part of the Coca-Cola System include 
the opportunity to improve our knowledge and talent sharing 
with the bottler community, increase our access to data and 
insights, and leverage the work being done across the system 
in relation to responsible sourcing.

We gain significant benefits of scale through procurement 
across many categories of inputs and arrangements with our 
technology partners. 

All of this, combined with our unrivalled reach and execution 
capability, positions Amatil as a beverages leader with real 
competitive advantage.

OUR RELATIONSHIPS WITH ADDITIONAL BRAND PARTNERS
Coca-Cola Amatil has a number of complementary 
relationships with other brand partners in the non-alcoholic 
ready-to-drink, alcoholic and hot beverages industries. Each 
relationship is different, and we work closely with our brand 
partners to ensure we grow our businesses together.

Non-alcoholic beverages

Made Group
In October 2018 Coca-Cola Amatil and The Coca-Cola 
Company announced a joint acquisition of 45 per cent

Monster
In May 2016, we entered into agreements with Monster Energy 
Company, a subsidiary of Monster Beverage Corporation

New Guinea. These agreements give us the exclusive right to 
produce, distribute and sell energy drinks including Monster 
Energy in Australia and New Zealand, Mother in Australia, 
New Zealand, Fiji and Samoa, Live+ in New Zealand and BU  
in Papua New Guinea. This followed the announcement of

to sell and distribute Beam Suntory’s premium spirits 
portfolio in Australia and extended the relationship to New 
Zealand. The term of the agreement is 10 years in duration. 
We have distributed the Beam portfolio since 2006 and have 
seen the portfolio broaden significantly in that time.

Molson Coors International 
In 2013 we entered into a distribution agreement with  
Molson Coors International for Australia. The relationship  
was extended to New Zealand in 2015. Following Molson 
Coors’ acquisition of the Miller brand in 2016 we replaced  
our historical arrangements with a new long-term agreement 
under which we have the exclusive right to manufacture, 
import and distribute a range of Molson Coors’ products in 
Australia. Our agreement with Molson Coors International for 
Australia is due for renewal or extension at the end of 2021. 

Casella Family Brands and Australian Beer Company
In January 2013, we established a joint venture with Casella 
Family Brands to form Australian Beer Company. Australian 
Beer Company produces a range of beers and cider products 
including Yenda and Pressman’s Cider as well as seasonal 
craft beers. Coca-Cola Amatil distributes Australian Beer 
Company’s products.

C&C Group
In July 2014, we entered into a distribution agreement  
with C&C Group – owner of the Magners brand – for the 
distribution of Magners in New Zealand. This was renewed  
in 2015 and then, in May 2017, we also entered into a new 
long-term agreement for distribution in Australia. 

ABRO
In 2014 we brought the Rekorderlig brand into our portfolio  
by entering into a long-term sales and distribution agreement 
with Chilli Brands. In 2018 we strengthened our relationship 
with the brand by entering into a long-term distribution 
agreement with Abro, the global brand owner of Rekorderlig 
Cider, and assumed full responsibility for the distribution and 
marketing of the brand in Australia.

Boston Beer Company
The distribution agreement which brought the Samuel Adams 
brand into our portfolio, entered into in August 2013 with 
Boston Beer Company, was terminated in November 2020 
which the agreement of both parties.

Wellington Beverage Co.
In 2019 we entered into a long-term distribution agreement 
with Wellington Beverage Co. to add the Fortunate Favours 
craft beer and cider ranges to our New Zealand portfolio.

Coffee

Caffitaly
In 2016 we enhanced our relationship with Caffitaly by 
securing the exclusive right to import and sell Caffitaly coffee 
machines and a range of our coffee brands in Indonesia.  
In 2018 we expanded this relationship by extending the 
exclusive Master Supply Agreement to include the sales and 
distribution of Caffitaly coffee machines and coffee capsules, 
including under the Grinders Café Expresso system in 
Australia, New Zealand and Samoa. Amatil’s exclusivity 
expired on 31 December 2020 and it continues to sell and 
distribute Caffitaly coffee machines and capsules on a 
non-exclusive basis.

Rancilio
In 2005, Grinders Coffee commenced a long-term relationship 
with Rancilio Group and remains a key trading partner for 
Rancilio professional coffee machines in Australia. A leading 
coffee equipment manufacturer, Rancilio Group is most widely 
acclaimed for technologically advanced coffee machines, 
both traditional and fully automatic, as well as instant and 
electronic doser grinders.

SUSTAINABILITY STRATEGY  
AND GOVERNANCE

Coca-Cola Amatil is committed to making a distinct 
and positive contribution to the communities and 
markets in which we operate. 

This means that with each decision we seek to deliver the 
best outcomes and build value for society as well as our 
Shareholders. Coca-Cola Amatil’s sustainability strategy is 
aligned with, and embedded in, our broader business strategy 
and the Coca-Cola Amatil Long-Term Value Proposition, 
focusing on five value drivers: Thriving Customers, Engaged 
People, Committed Partners, Delighted Consumers and 
Better Environment.

FOCUSING ON WHAT IS IMPORTANT
Our sustainability strategy has been developed considering 
the expectations of all key stakeholders – our people, our 
partners, our communities, our customers and our investors 
– focusing on those areas that are the most material and 
where we can make the most difference. We regularly review 
our sustainability priorities, by conducting a materiality 
assessment with internal and external stakeholders. 

Recent reviews confirmed that we are focused on areas where 
we can have the greatest impact, and we noted increased 
stakeholder concerns regarding sustainable packaging, 
consumer wellbeing, climate change and human rights  
and will continue to prioritise these areas.

In 2018 Coca-Cola Amatil released a set of strategies and 
public goals to achieve by the end of 2020. A full progress 
report on performance against our 2020 Sustainability Goals 
will be provided in our 2020 Sustainability Report and 
Factsheets.

In 2020, we further refined and expanded our sustainability 
strategy and now have a suite of 10 ambition statements and 
supporting strategies to be achieved between 2020 and 2040. 
The strategy is being embedded in how we do business and is 
underpinned by roadmaps and performance indicators.  
An overview of the ambitions, supporting strategies for  
our priorities, governance and management approach, is 
provided below.

PRIORITY AMBITIONS, TIMELINE AND STRATEGIES
The first four of the sustainability ambitions have been 
identified as priorities based on stakeholder expectations and 
where we know we can make the greatest difference. We aim to 
achieve each ambition between 2020 and 2040, setting interim 
targets and improving our performance over time. Supporting 
strategies for these priority ambitions are detailed below.

Net zero water in 2020
 — Sustain our net zero water operations by being water 

stewards; only sourcing from sustainable water sources, 
also considering community needs, and improving 
vulnerability assessments, management plans, 
measurement, reporting and transparency for communities

 — Together with The Coca-Cola Company we are returning to 
nature and communities more than the amount of water 
that we use in our drinks. Replenishment projects focus on 
our operational areas and communities, including supply 
chain/agricultural priority areas, improving water security 
for all where needed most

 — We use water carefully and efficiently and focus on re-use 

opportunities.

Consumer wellbeing in 2025
 — Reduce our total non-alcoholic beverages portfolio sugar 
grams per 100ml by 35 per cent in Indonesia, and by  
20 per cent in Australia and New Zealand, by 2025 (vs 2015) 
& have wellbeing initiatives underway in all markets

 — Lead across our communities on responsible consumption 

(alcohol & non-alcohol) particularly in vulnerable 
communities

 — We continue to market responsibly, offering choice and 

information to help our consumers make decisions, and do 
not aim or direct any media marketing activity to children 
under the age of 121.

Closing the loop on packaging in 2030
 — Pack-to-pack recycling solutions in all countries where 

we operate by 2030

 — Design for 100 per cent recyclability and support 

well-designed infrastructure and initiatives for collection

 — 50 per cent average recycled or renewable content 

across all packaging by 2030 

 — Develop the feasibility of using 75 per cent recycled or 

renewable plastic in our bottles by 2030.

Net zero carbon emissions in 2040
 — Achieve net zero direct carbon emissions (Scope 1 & 2) 

by 2040

 — 100 per cent renewable electricity in Australia and 

New Zealand by 2025

 — Other emissions reduction supporting The Coca-Cola 

Company’s Science-Based Target of 25 per cent 
reduction by 2030 (vs 2015)

 — Support climate resilient operations and communities.

GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT OF SUSTAINABILITY 
From the Board to the Group Leadership Team, Group 
functions to the Businesses, at Coca-Cola Amatil  
we are committed to continual improvement and acting 
responsibly to support a better future for all our 
stakeholders.

The Coca-Cola Amatil Board is committed to achieving  
the highest standards of corporate governance and 
business conduct. The Board sees this commitment as 
fundamental to the sustainability and performance of our 
business and to enhancing Shareholder value. The Risk  
and Sustainability Committee of the Board reviews the 
effectiveness of Coca-Cola Amatil’s controls and strategies 
to manage our non-financial and operational risks and 
compliance matters by:

 — Reviewing and monitoring compliance with our legal and 
regulatory responsibilities, internal policies and industry 
standards on operational matters

 — Approving policies and standards that reflect our 

reputation

 — Reviewing and monitoring social issues that could 

impact our reputation

 — Reviewing Coca-Cola Amatil’s non-financial and 

operational risks and controls.

Management decisions in relation to sustainability are made 
by the Group Managing Director, Group Leadership Team 
and individual members of management who have direct 
authority. Across the Group functions and within each 
Business, our health and safety, supply chain, environment, 
people and culture, procurement, and public affairs, 
communications and sustainability teams are responsible 
for the day-to-day implementation, management, monitoring 
and reporting of specific initiatives.

We also remain committed to an enhanced approach  
to sustainability reporting with more data and analysis  
on the sustainability performance of all our Businesses 
referencing the Global Reporting Initiative framework,  
the Task Force on Climate Related Financial Disclosures 
guidance, and Businesses for Societal Impact (formerly 
‘The London Benchmarking Group’) community investment 
guidelines. Coca-Cola Amatil’s annual sustainability 
reports are available on our website www.ccamatil.com.

In 2020, EY has been engaged to undertake limited 
assurance, as defined by the Australian Audit Standards  
on performance disclosures covering all ten 2020 
Sustainability Goals.

In New Zealand the Children and Young People’s Advertising Code requires that advertising for our products must not target children (below the 
age of 14) or be placed in any media where children are likely to be a significant proportion of the expected average audience. In Australia no 
advertising is directed to children and young people under the age of 15.

1  Capital employed is referred to as Assets and Liabilities – Operating and Investing or segment net assets in the Financial Report.
2  Working capital is defined as current trade and other receivables plus inventories less current trade and other payables.
3  Mainly comprising of non-current assets (and associated liabilities) held for sale, prepayments, investments, defined benefit superannuation plans 

assets and liabilities and provisions.

4  Return on capital employed (ROCE) is calculated as ongoing EBIT, divided by the average of capital employed at the beginning and at the end of the 

twelve-month period ended as at the balance date.

Capital employed decreased by $613.4 million from 2019 driven by:

 — Working capital decreased by $203.1 million, with strong focus on collections and managing bad debt risk in the COVID-19 
environment, resulting in lower receivables particularly in Australia, Indonesia and Fiji. Inventory holdings were reduced 
mainly in Australia and Indonesia. Payables were higher in Australia and New Zealand in part due to the timing of promotional 
pricing rebates payable to major grocery customers in both businesses.

 — Property, plant and equipment decreased by $338.2 million due to a lower than normal level of capital expenditure with a 

number of capital projects being deferred and the impairment taken in 1H20 on our Indonesian business.

 — Intangible assets decreased by $54.3 million due the reduction in the carrying value of our bottling agreement and goodwill 

in Indonesia as result of the impairment from 1H20.

 — Current and deferred tax liabilities (net) decreased by $44.4 million due to deferred tax assets arising from impairments 

taken in 1H20.

 — Other assets (net) increased by $10.7 million mainly from a reduction in employee related provisions.

acquisitions and disposals of businesses and payables relating to additions of property, plant and equipment.

2  Mainly comprising of movements in prepayments and provisions.
3  Operating cash flows divided by profit after tax adding back depreciation and amortisation expenses before tax.

Ongoing free cash flows increased by $139.6 million from 2019  
and was mainly due to:

 — Working capital was up mainly due to lower receivables and 
reduced inventory in Australia and Indonesia, and the timing 
benefit from promotional pricing rebates payable to major  
grocery customers. The difference between the balance sheet 
movement of $203.1 million and the cashflow primarily due to  
FX $53.0 million and non-trading items of $20.7 million.

 — Net finance costs increased driven by the timing of realisation  

of income on hedge contracts.

 — Tax payments decreased driven by the timing benefit due to  

lower tax installments in Australia.

 — Capital expenditure was $20.7 million lower than FY19 and 

approximately $95 million below our planned pre-COVID spend.

Ongoing cash realisation increased by 26.2 points from 2019 
mainly driven by the decrease in working capital.

NET DEBT (CONTINUED)
The balance sheet remains in a strong position. Net debt was lower at $1,462.1 million which includes lease liabilities of 
$499.5 million. As at 31 December 2020, the Papua New Guinea business had local currency (Kina) denominated cash assets 
and funds in held to maturity investments of $129.1 million (PGK 344.4 million); 2019: $213.9 million (PGK 508.2 million). This 
amount has decreased by $153.5 million since the peak in June 2018 of $282.6 million reflecting repayments of an intercompany 
loan and internal dividend payments. Government-imposed currency controls continue to be in place in Papua New Guinea, 
impacting the extent to which the cash held in the country can be remitted for use elsewhere in the Group.

Ongoing EBIT interest cover reduced slightly, from 9.7 times in FY19 to 8.9 times, due to the impact of COVID-19 on EBIT 
despite lower finance costs.

COCA-COLA AMATIL ANNUAL REPORT 2020 
ACQUISITION BY COCA-COLA 
EUROPEAN PARTNERS

On 4 November 2020, we announced that Coca-Cola 
Amatil had entered into an agreement with Coca-Cola 
European Partners plc (CCEP) for the acquisition of all 
of the issued shares held by independent Shareholders 
pursuant to a Scheme of Arrangement (CCEP Scheme 
of Arrangement or Scheme). 

Under the agreement, independent Shareholders would receive 
total cash consideration of $12.75 per share, less any final 
dividend in respect of the half year ended 31 December 2020 
(2H20) declared and paid to Shareholders before the date of 
implementation of any Scheme. We also announced that CCEP 
had entered into a separate agreement to acquire the Amatil 
shares indirectly held by The Coca-Cola Company, conditional 
upon implementation of the Scheme (CCEP/TCCC Transaction).

On 15 February 2021, we announced that Amatil had entered 
into a revised agreement with CCEP that increases the total 
cash consideration that independent Shareholders will receive 
under the Scheme from $12.75 per share to $13.50 cash  
per share. Consistent with the initial offer, the total cash 
consideration would be reduced by the cash amount of the 
final dividend in respect of 2H20. CCEP has declared that this 
is its best and final offer. There were no changes to the  
CCEP/TCCC Transaction. 

Independent Shareholders will have the opportunity to  
vote on the Scheme at the upcoming Amatil Scheme Meeting 
scheduled to occur in mid-April 2021. A draft scheme booklet 
containing relevant information on the Scheme is expected  
to be submitted to ASIC on or before 22 February 2021 and 
dispatched to independent Shareholders in mid-March 2021. 

The Amatil Related Party Committee and Group Managing 
Director, Alison Watkins, unanimously recommend that 
independent Shareholders vote in favour of the Scheme,  
in the absence of a superior proposal and subject to the 
independent expert concluding (and continuing to conclude) 
that the Scheme is fair and reasonable and in the best  
interests of independent Shareholders. 

Australian Foreign Investment Review Board approval for the 
Scheme was obtained on 29 January 2021. However, the 
Scheme remains subject to a number of other conditions 
including New Zealand Overseas Investment Office approval, 
Independent Shareholder approval and Australian court 
approval.

Comments in this report relating to matters such as outlook, 
priorities, strategy and risks should be read in the context of 
Coca-Cola Amatil continuing to operate as an independent, 
publicly-listed company. Furthermore, should Shareholders 
vote in favour of the transaction proceeding, resulting in a 
change of ownership, the approach and priority given to one or 
more of these areas may differ from the way such matters are 
presented in this section.

For the latest information related to the Scheme, refer to 
the Chairman & Group Managing Director's Review on 
pages 8 - 11.

AGREEMENT WITH CCEP THAT 
INCREASES THE TOTAL CASH 
CONSIDERATION THAT INDEPENDENT 
SHAREHOLDERS WILL RECEIVE UNDER

Market overview
The non-alcoholic ready to drink (NARTD) beverage industry 
in Australia is at a mature stage, increasingly fragmented and 
evolving rapidly, marked by consumers embracing new trends. 
Current themes shaping the industry include:

 — Consumer demand trends and opportunities: healthier 

choices, value, convenience, innovation in packaging and 
reformulation, technology, environmental and social 
sustainability. 

 — Competition: intensified competition between beverage 
companies, and development of private label brands by 
retailers.

 — Changing trade environment: relationships with retailers, 
retail consolidation and growth, stronger non-traditional 
channels, technology.

 — Changing regulatory environment: container deposit 

schemes.

Our route-to-market model
We sell and distribute our products directly to customers 
through a segmented execution strategy that leverages 
consumer and customer insights to get the right portfolio in 
every outlet. We use a range of route-to-market models to 
maximise profitability across brand, pack and channel 
portfolios. In addition to our traditional sales teams, we utilise 
online selling platforms. We offer an efficient and tailor-made 
delivery service to our customers, working with logistics and 
transport providers. 

Our channel segmentation
We have implemented a more tailored approach to channel 
segmentation to better recognise outlet characteristics and

2020 PERFORMANCE

Overview
Our full year 2020 performance reflected the impact of 
COVID-19 throughout the year as well as the impact of 
bushfires in 1Q20.

Total volumes declined by 4.2 per cent while trading revenue 
declined by 3.5 per cent with a more pronounced decline in 
ongoing EBITDA which was down 8.7 per cent on the prior  
year due to changes in channel and pack mix as consumer 
behaviour responded to COVID-19 lockdown measures. Despite 
these declines, Amatil was able to gain volume share in the 
NARTD market1, with the Coca-Cola Trademark and Monster 
brands performing particularly strongly.

Trading revenue per unit case was up 0.7 per cent versus last 
year, comprised of a 1.3 per cent uplift due to CDS and a 0.6 
per cent decline resulting from changes in channel and pack 
mix. COVID-19 led to changes in the way people consumed  
our products, with restrictions on consumer mobility,  
leading to increased consumption at home and increased sales 
via our grocery channels. The 2H20 result was a significant 
improvement on 1H20, reflecting strong sales execution and 
improved consumer mobility and confidence. 

We have experienced significant volatility as a result of 
COVID-19 restrictions and the subsequent impact on consumer 
mobility. Notably, the On-The-Go channel was significantly 
impacted during periods of severe lockdowns, where outlets 
were temporarily closed or trading was restricted to takeaway 
only while Grocery customers remained open. During these 
periods, we also saw an increased demand for multi-serve PET 
and multi-pack cans while demand for immediate consumption 
offerings decreased. These channel and product shifts resulted 
in margin compression in the first half, which improved in the 
second half, albeit not yet returning to pre-COVID levels. 

Australia delivered EBITDA of $502.3 million, down by 8.7 per 
cent compared to last year and EBIT of $362.6 million, down 
14.7 per cent compared to last year. The declines from trading 
were partially offset by strong cost management initiatives  
and the impact of AASB16 - Leases on distribution transport 
leasing charges which positively impacted Australia’s  
EBITDA result.

2020 PERFORMANCE (CONTINUED)
Performance also varied across States, reflecting subsequent 
waves of COVID-19 and the ensuing lockdown measures 
implemented in response. The hardest hit States were 
Victoria, New South Wales and Queensland which were down 
8.6 per cent, 7.1 per cent and 0.7 per cent respectively on 
FY19. The best performing states were Western Australia and 
South Australia, up 1.9 per cent and 1.3 per cent respectively. 

In 1H20, we recognised the need to sharpen the focus of the 
Accelerated Australian Growth Plan and strengthen the 
Australian business through operating model and supply 
chain efficiencies. The Australia Fighting Fit program 
comprises several initiatives to unlock benefits within 
Australia from 2021 and strengthen delivery against the 
Accelerated Australian Growth Plan. Key components of this 
program include the transformation of the Australia 
organisational design, into a fit for purpose, channel-led and 
customer focused organisation and optimisation of our small 
stores route to market model through our OTG Profit to Serve 
program. Streamlining our supply chain encompasses both 
targeted initiatives and strategic investment to deliver 
efficiency benefits and future proof our network. 

CHANNEL 

Grocery 
The Grocery channel performed well in FY20 due to a shift to 
at-home consumption throughout the year. Amatil leveraged 
this opportunity through strong in-store execution, 
particularly in large take home packs and multi-serve 
offerings. The NARTD measured market1 delivered growth of 
2.6 per cent in volume, compared to the prior year. Amatil 
outperformed the measured market1 in volume, largely driven 
by the Coca-Cola Trademark, with an outstanding result from 
Coca-Cola No Sugar.

Convenience & Petroleum 
The Convenience and Petroleum channel experienced 
significant volatility throughout the year due to mobility 
restrictions as a result of the bushfires in January and 
February followed by the impacts of COVID-19 from March 
onwards. This channel recovered quickly once COVID-19 
restrictions eased, finishing the year with volume growth of 
0.4 per cent versus last year. In FY20, the measured market2 
declined in volume and grew in value. Amatil outperformed 
the market2 in volume, delivering 1.2 points of share growth 
driven by Coca-Cola Trademark and Water, and held flat  
share in value.

On-The-Go
The On-The-Go channel has experienced significant volatility  
in FY20, with clear impacts of COVID-19 restrictions on the 
channel. Volumes in On-The-Go declined by 16.4 per cent in 
FY20 due to the impact of venue closures and other COVID-19 
restrictions. The full year result was a significant improvement 
on the 1H20 decline of 21.0 per cent, driven by volume recovery 
across higher margin packs which resulted in rate improvement.

The HORECA channel was severely impacted by the closure of 
pubs, clubs and hotels, with a decline of 28.9 per cent in FY20. 
Since restrictions were lifted, we have observed an 
improvement in volume momentum and outlet count in the 
State Immediate Consumption and National On Premise 
channels. With the support of our Customer aggregator portal, 
we have seen an acceleration in volumes sold through online 
platforms as consumers adapt to the new trading environment. 

NARTD
Amatil’s volumes in the NARTD market declined by 4.2 per 
cent versus last year, largely due to the challenges of 
bushfires and COVID-19. 

The Coca-Cola Trademark performed strongly in FY20, up 
1.9 per cent on pcp, led by volume growth of 10.2 per cent in 
Coca-Cola No Sugar. Amatil delivered an impressive result  
in the cola category in the second half, with volume growth  
of 4.1 per cent in Coca-Cola Trademark and 13.1 per cent in 
Coca-Cola No Sugar. Amatil’s regular cola products achieved 
volume and value share gains in the measured market1, whilst 
Amatil delivered volume share gains in the diets/lights cola 
category, driven by Coca-Cola No Sugar. 

Water volumes declined by 12.7 per cent reflecting the severe 
impact of the reduction in consumer mobility during lockdown 
periods. Despite this, sparkling water volume grew by 8.2 per 
cent. Amatil delivered volume and value share gains1 in the 
water category, largely driven by strong flavour innovation in 
sparkling water. 

The energy category performed strongly, with volume growth 
of 7.9 per cent, led by Monster Energy growth of 31.8 per cent. 
In the full year, the value-added dairy category saw volume 
declines of 8.3 per cent, with Barista Bros declining, reflecting 
impact of COVID-19 lockdown measures on Convenience & 
Petroleum trading.

The flavours / adult categories experienced a 10.4 per cent 
volume decline in FY20, partially offset by 11.3 per cent 
volume growth in the Diets/Lights flavours segment.

The sports category recovered well as convenience and 
petroleum outlets re-opened, delivering volume growth of  
3.0 per cent in the year. 

The frozen category volume decline was driven by a reduction 
in foot traffic, particularly in venues such as cinemas and 
stadiums.

Alcohol & Coffee
Alcohol continued to deliver strong results in 2020, achieving 
volume growth of 4.2 per cent within a challenging trading 
environment. Both the spirits and premix categories 
performed well, delivering volume growth of 15.8 per cent  
and 4.7 per cent respectively, reflecting increased at-home 
consumption. Amatil grew spirits value share2 in the 
categories of vodka, gin and scotch. 

Our strong performance in spirits and premix was supported 
by our brand partnership with Beam Suntory and execution of 
key growth initiatives. Core brands of Jim Beam and Canadian 
Club both delivered volume growth, with a focus on amplifying 
No Sugar and High Alcohol by Volume offerings. Our core 
initiatives closely leveraged data and insights to identify 
sources of growth and drive a segmented execution approach. 
We also continued to drive category premiumisation through 
Makers Mark and Japanese spirits portfolio.

This strong performance in spirits and premix was slightly 
offset by a slight decline in beer and cider of 1.6 per cent, 
largely due to reduced on-premise activity during COVID-19 
restrictions. Beer and cider momentum improved in 2H20, 
achieving volume growth of 1.3 per cent driven by targeted 
activity and innovation.

Coffee performance was impacted by our mix of on-the-go 
business in catering, hospitality, clubs and travel. Despite 
this, Amatil outperformed the Grocery Coffee market3, 
delivering value share growth of 0.4 points in FY20, driven  
by beans and capsules.

2021 PRIORITIES

Accelerated Australian Growth Plan
While the shape and pace of recovery from COVID-19 remains 
uncertain, we recognise there will be key trends that remain 
ongoing in the Australian market in the short-medium term.  
In adapting to these prevailing conditions, we have refined  
the Accelerated Australian Growth Plan (AGP) prioritisation  
to maximise our performance across core categories and 
channels, and to drive operational efficiency and flexibility.

This plan combines future proofing the portfolio with an 
enhanced and effective route-to-market strategy while taking 
a more tailored approach to segmentation. We have identified 
opportunities to sharpen our focus, and to ensure we 
prioritise the areas that have the greatest benefit to the 
business. 

From a category perspective, the focus of our Accelerated 
Australian Growth Plan will be on the following areas:

 — ‘Must Win’ categories are regular cola and flavours where 
we are committed to strengthening our market-leader 
position in cola and growing share in flavours. In regular 
cola we seek to continue volume momentum as we deliver 
strong in-store activation and impactful brand campaigns.

 — ‘Double Down’ categories are no sugar cola & flavours, 

sparkling water and energy. Our strategic approach aims to 
increase our presence and accelerate market share in these 
high growth categories through best in class execution and 
innovation. No sugar cola and flavours are a key business 
priority, as we continue to undertake targeted initiatives to 
drive growth in these categories. During COVID-19, we 
observed increased demand for diets/lights products 
including our Coca-Cola No Sugar brand, and we anticipate 
this trend to continue to 2021. 

 — ‘Stabilise’ targets the categories of still water, sports, tea 

and ambient juice, all of which play an important role in our 
portfolio. We are committed to maintaining our position in 
the market within these categories. 

 — ‘Enter’ categories are value-added dairy and chilled juice, 
and our focus is to drive targeted scale across our brands 
within this category.

Applying the same categorisation to our distribution channels: 

 — ‘Must Win’ channels are those in which we can make the 

greatest impact on our performance: grocery and 
convenience and petroleum. Performance in these channels 
is heightened in a COVID-19 environment, and our focus 
remains on strong execution, enhanced by our in-house 
merchandising services, shopper-led activity and 
strengthening customer partnerships. 

 — ‘Double Down’ channels – state immediate consumption, 
regional on-the-go and e-commerce – offer the greatest 
potential for growth. We have seen strong recovery 
momentum in the state immediate consumption channel  
as COVID restrictions have eased and consumer mobility 
returned, and we will continue to leverage our ‘Feet on the 
Street’ initiative to accelerate growth in this channel.

 — ‘Stabilise’ channels are those in which growth is expected  
to be limited – national on premise, HORECA, licensed and 
vending. We will bring greater focus on alignment and 
understanding of our customers’ priorities in these channels.

Our Accelerated Australian Growth Plan is underpinned by  
six enablers, refined in-line with the Australian operating 
context and strengthened through execution under our 
Fighting Fit program:

 — Customer-Focused Organisation: Australia’s 

organisational design is channel-led, and customer-focused, 
operating in service of our frontline. Channel segmented 
teams enhance customer experience and the ease of doing 
business with Amatil. Our strategic reallocation of resources 
has created competitive advantage and ensured the 
Australian business is fit for purpose. 

 — Data Analytics and Insights: Our unrivalled access to data 
and insights supports development of segmented execution 
strategies across core categories and channels. Data 
analytics also enhance our understanding of consumer 
behaviour shifts and ability to respond with agility in a 
COVID environment.

WE REMAIN COMMITTED TO 
PACKAGING SUSTAINABILITY AND 
DRIVING ACHIEVEMENT OF OUR 
SUGAR REDUCTION TARGETS.

 — Streamlined Supply Chain: Driving production efficiency 
and investment to optimise our logistics network is a key 
enabler in strengthening the Australian business. Within  
this program, key initiatives include portfolio simplification 
through reduced SKU count, production line benchmarking 
and infrastructure investment to optimise and future-proof 
our network. 

 — Sustainability and Reduced Sugar: We remain committed 
to packaging sustainability and driving achievement of our 
sugar reduction targets, with strong plans in place to 
continue the progress made across our portfolio.

 — E-Commerce Capability: We have experienced an 

acceleration of the e-commerce opportunity, with a step 
change in demand of online grocery and beverages sold 
through aggregators. Our share position in Grocery is strong 
at 39.4 per cent, and we are overtrading in share1 when 
compared to Bricks & Mortar at 34.0 per cent. Aggregators 
are a critical enabler in On-The-Go, and our initiatives have 
seen growth in meal-bundle execution from 13 per cent to 
34 per cent in 2020, with plans to further increase our 
presence on these platforms. The relaunch of our MyCCA 
web and mobile platforms in February 2021 will enhance 
customer experience for our small stores. 

 — OTG Profit to Serve: Our OTG Profit to Serve program 

recognises the need to reset our route to market model  
to drive profitability across small stores, through customer 
service, logistics and equipment optimisation. Key initiatives 
under this program include Product Quadrant Analysis core 
range, adherence to minimum order quantities, balancing 
delivering days and targeted cooler ranging or rental models.

THE NON-ALCOHOLIC READY-TO-DRINK 
BEVERAGE INDUSTRY IN FIJI IS IN A 
DEVELOPING STAGE AND HAS GROWN 
AS CONSUMER DEMAND AND 
PREFERENCES EXPAND AND EVOLVE.

Market overview
The non-alcoholic ready-to-drink beverage industry in  
New Zealand is at a mature stage and evolving rapidly,  
marked by consumers embracing new trends. Current  
themes shaping the industry in New Zealand include:

 — Consumer demand trends and opportunities: healthier 

choices, value, convenience, innovation in packaging and 
reformulation, technology and environmental and social 
sustainability, growth in ‘boutique’ brands and 
fragmentation of the market.

 — Increasing competition: between beverage companies  
and development of private label brands by retailers.

 — Changing trade environment: relationship with retailers, 
retail consolidation and growth, stronger non-traditional 
channels, technology.

 — Changing regulatory environment: container deposit 

schemes.

The non-alcoholic ready-to-drink beverage industry in  
Fiji is in a developing stage and has grown as consumer 
demand and preferences expand and evolve.

Our route-to-market model
In New Zealand, we sell and distribute our products directly to 
customers through a segmented execution strategy that 
leverages consumer and customer insights to get the right 
portfolio in every outlet. We use a range of route-to-market 
models to maximise profitability across brand, pack and 
channel portfolios. In addition to our traditional sales teams, 
we also utilise online selling platforms. In Fiji we offer a 
high-touch face-to-face customer service model.

2020 PERFORMANCE

Overview
Despite COVID-19 lockdowns in 2Q20 in New Zealand and a 
significant impact resulting from the lack of tourism in Fiji, the 
Pacific segment recorded a volume decline of 2.5 per cent 
and modest revenue growth of 0.4 per cent (1.0 per cent in 
constant currency). EBITDA for the year was $181.0 million, 
representing growth of 0.7 per cent on last year (1.2 per cent 
in constant currency). The segment recorded an EBIT result  
of $130.5 million, down 0.9 per cent on the prior year (0.4 per 
cent in constant currency). 

New Zealand 
The true strength of the New Zealand business was 
demonstrated by its FY20 result which delivered flat volumes 
and revenue growth of 3.6 per cent versus the prior year  
(4.3 per cent in constant currency). Strong revenue growth 
management was key to offsetting the impact of On-The-Go 
and Licensed customer outlet closures in April and May.  
The business was able to deliver relatively stable EBIT 
margins and to strengthen its market leadership position  
in both sparkling and still beverage categories, delivering 
NARTD volume share1 growth of 1.2 points and value share1 
growth of 1.5 points.

The Grocery channel benefitted from the channel shift away 
from On-The-Go and Petroleum outlets during lockdown 
periods, delivering volume growth of 6.6 per cent for the full 
year. Conversely, On-The-Go (excluding Petroleum) was 
impacted by restricted trading, delivering a volume decline  
of 7.3 per cent for the full year. Petroleum volume recovered 
well as consumer mobility began to lift, resulting in volume 
growth of 2.9 per cent versus the prior year. This was a 
significant improvement from the ~50.0 per cent decline 
reported in April 2020 during the lockdown period.

The business also observed a category mix shift, with  
more demand for at-home consumption offerings such as 
multi-serve PET and multi-pack cans, whilst demand for 
immediate consumption offerings declined.

2020 PERFORMANCE (CONTINUED)

2021 PRIORITIES 

New Zealand  
We are focused on maintaining our category leadership 
position in sparkling and stills beverages, whilst looking to 
secure further growth across the broader portfolio. A key 
focus area remains the expansion of our customer base, 
particularly across higher-margin small customers. 

We are working closely with our brand partners to adapt plans 
to the changing environment. We are driving the fundamentals 
for sustainable and profitable growth by ensuring that we 
offer our customers and consumers the world’s leading 
beverage brands across a broad range of categories and 
formats. 

Fiji
Due to the impact of COVID-19 and its expected restriction on 
tourism, we anticipate Fiji’s economy to remain challenged in 
2021, or until international travel restrictions are eased. Within 
this environment, we will continue to tightly manage our cost 
base, focus on our core range and channels, increase our 
presence in other Pacific Island territories and enhance  
our competitive position by focusing our customer and 
stakeholder relationships.

Again, Coca-Cola No Sugar was the stand-out performer, 
with double-digit volume and revenue growth versus the prior 
year. Classic Coca-Cola delivered modest revenue growth 
versus the prior comparative period, demonstrating the 
strength and resilience of the Coca-Cola Trademark brands. 
Energy also delivered a strong result in FY20, with volume 
and revenue growth versus the prior year. 

Alcohol delivered an impressive result, with volume growth 
and double-digit revenue growth versus the prior year. 

Reflecting a strong recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, the 
New Zealand business decided to repay the NZ $7.2 million 
government wage subsidy received in 1H20. As a result, 2H20 
EBIT includes the reversal of this subsidy such that it has no 
impact on the full year trading result. On a normalised basis 
(removal of the receipt and subsequent return of the subsidy 
from trading in each half), the Pacific segment EBIT declined 
19.3 per cent in 1H20 and grew 14.5 per cent in 2H20 against 
the respective prior periods. The strong underlying 2H20 
result also includes two additional trading days and a 
favourable comparative, following price increases in 3Q19. 

Fiji & Samoa
Coca-Cola Fiji and Paradise Beverages both reported declines 
in volume, revenue and EBIT due to the adverse impacts of 
COVID-19 related international travel restrictions on the Fijian 
economy. Paradise Beverages’ volume performance in 2H20 
improved considerably as a result of the alcohol excise 
reduction announced in July 2020. 

Impairment
In light of the adverse impact of COVID-19 on trading 
performance and the prescribed approach to assessing 
carrying values under the accounting standards, Amatil 
incurred a non-cash impairment of $16.8 million (post tax,  
pre non-controlling interests) of the Paradise Beverages  
Fijian and Samoan businesses in 1H20. The impairment was  
a non-cash accounting adjustment and classified as a 
non-trading item in our financial statements, and we remain 
very confident about the long-term prospects for the  
Paradise Beverages Fijian and Samoan businesses.

AUSTRALIA AND NEW ZEALAND CONTAINER DEPOSIT SCHEMES

Australia
The New South Wales container deposit scheme commenced  
on 1 December 2017.

The Australian Capital Territory container deposit scheme 
began operating on 30 June 2018.

From 3 February 2020 we increased our Container Deposit 
Scheme charge in NSW and the Australian Capital Territory 
from 11.82 cents (excluding GST) to 12.82 cents (excluding 
GST), due to rising cost base for the NSW container deposit 
scheme as the scheme matures.

The Queensland container refund scheme commenced  
on 1 November 2018 with the charge per eligible container 
currently set at 12.73 cents (excluding GST).

2020 PERFORMANCE
The Indonesia and Papua New Guinea segment experienced 
challenging trading conditions in FY20, with volumes down 
16.2 per cent and revenue down 18.0 per cent on pcp (17.0 per 
cent on a constant currency basis). Ongoing EBIT was down 
36.3 per cent (32.6 per cent on a constant currency basis) 
reflecting an EBIT margin decline of 1.9 points for the full  
year (1.6 points on a constant currency basis). 

Indonesia
Rising COVID-19 infection rates and challenging 
macroeconomic conditions impacted the performance  
of the Indonesian business in FY20. 

Indonesia volume and revenue declined double digits in  
FY20 due to the impacts of the pandemic, with the most 
severe lockdown period coinciding with the Festive period, 
Indonesia’s most important trading period. Volume declined 
by 15.0 per cent in the Traditional Trade channel and 25.1 per 
cent in the Modern Trade channel as a result of a reduction  
in consumer mobility across the country. 

Despite the challenging macroeconomic conditions and the 
impact of COVID-19 restrictions, the Indonesian business 
delivered positive EBIT and a strong cash flow result for the 
year, enabled by a focus on tight cost control and operational 
efficiencies. 

Market overview
The non-alcoholic ready-to-drink beverage industry in 
Indonesia offers considerable prospects for growth and we 
believe it will become a growth engine for Coca-Cola Amatil. 
Our vision for the region is underpinned by the country’s 
significant long-term growth potential and favourable 
demographics. Current themes shaping the industry in 
Indonesia include:

 — Strong growth potential: Indonesia is forecast to be the 
world’s fourth-largest economy by 2050; nominal gross 
domestic product per capita has increased approximately  
11 per cent per annum since 2005.

 — Demographics: A young population.

 — Growing affluence: there is a growing middle class.  

Middle-class personal consumption has grown 12 per cent 
per annum since 2002 and now represents close to half of 
all household consumption in Indonesia1.

 — Increasing competition: market is fragmented with many 
players, many of whom are single-category focused with 
additional minor but growing plays in other categories.

 — Consumer spending: short-term challenges with subdued 
consumer spending in food and commercial beverages.

The non-alcoholic ready-to-drink beverage industry in  
Papua New Guinea is in a developing stage and has grown  
as consumer demand and preferences expand and evolve.

Our route-to-market model 
In Indonesia, we follow a two-fold distribution strategy that 
has generated significant improvements in effectiveness and 
efficiency in our route-to-market execution. In addition to our 
own distribution network, we have established a network of 
Coca-Cola Official Distributors across Indonesia. These 
distributors offer better capability to execute the ‘last mile’ 
delivery significantly increasing our customer reach while 
allowing us to maintain the relationships with our customers 
securing one of our strongest competitive advantages. We 
also have a large local sales team, segmented into the 
different market channels. 

In Papua New Guinea, we have made significant progress on 
our route-to-market strategy as we build a distributor model, 
utilising managed third-party partners, in addition to 
expanding our own distribution network. A dedicated sales 
team and activation strategy has been put in place to manage 
our modern trade and key accounts.

INDONESIA & PAPUA NEW GUINEA 
(CONTINUED)

2020 PERFORMANCE (CONTINUED)
Whilst the overall NARTD market1 contracted by 20.4 per cent 
in the year, Amatil performed slightly ahead of the overall 
market1. Pleasingly the total Sparkling market2 grew as a 
portion of the total NARTD market1, with Amatil delivering 
sparkling volume share gains of 3.3 points2. 

In the Juice market, the Minute Maid Pulpy brand gained  
1.7 points in volume share2 following the price reset, 
rebranding and new flavours implemented in the first quarter. 

During a year of significant volatility, we leveraged the 
flexibility of our route to market model to capitalise on the 
rapid market changes as demonstrated by our resilient 
performance in the Provision channel which benefitted  
from consumers shopping in their local areas. Indonesia also 
made a significant effort to manage costs in its supply chain 
function, which resulted in the reduction of production and 
delivery costs despite efficiency losses from lower volume.

Impairment
In light of the adverse impact of COVID-19 on trading 
performance and the prescribed approach to assessing 
carrying values under the accounting standards, Amatil 
incurred a non-cash impairment of $143.4 million (post tax, 
pre non-controlling interests) of the Indonesia business in 
1H20. The impairment was a non-cash accounting adjustment 
and classified as a non-trading item in our financial 
statements, and we remain very confident about the  
long-term prospects for the Indonesian business.

Papua New Guinea
As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, Papua New Guinea 
faced challenging trading conditions in the year. The business 
delivered modest volume and revenue declines in the full year. 
The strength of Amatil’s position in that market however 
enabled it to trade consistently throughout much of the year 
and to compete effectively albeit with some impact on pricing. 
Of note in this market during the year was the construction of 
a new warehouse and the commencement of the installation 
of an additional can line, both of which will strengthen the 
business’ position in this market.

2021 PRIORITIES 

Indonesia
In light of the challenges in the operating environment posed 
by the COVID-19 pandemic, we intensified our focus on the 
areas we can control. 

Given the importance of Festive in Indonesia, the business 
will be focused on driving sales during the all-important 
festive period. In particular, the business will focus on driving 
availability of affordable offerings, building on e-commerce 
capabilities, promoting the at-home consumption occasion 
through our multi-serve range and focusing on segmented 
execution across the Modern and Traditional trades. 

Improving affordability across our portfolio and the availability 
of the affordability packs is a key priority for the business, 
particularly in the context of the challenging macro-economic 
conditions. Examples of key initiatives include: continue to 
drive availability of the 250ml Sparkling pack to continue 
recruiting consumers to the category; continued expansion of 
the more affordable Minute Maid Pulpy pack, to build on the 
share gains of 1.7 points achieved since its relaunch in the 
first quarter; continue to drive availability of Frestea Small 
Affordable packs through bundling and price promotions.

Furthermore, we will continue to build channel relevance 
through segmented route-to-market execution.

Finally, we will take advantage of the market opportunities 
presented by the pandemic. In response to the increased 
At-Home occasions we will expand availability of our multi-
serve range (Sparkling, Tea, Juice and Water) to build 
momentum for the festive period, and we will support our 
multi-serve packs with a strong integrated media approach  
in order to connect with at-home consumption occasions. 

In order to capitalise on the accelerated growth of 
e-Commerce we will increase our presence in the 
e-Commerce channels by developing our existing B2B  
partner relationships and capitalising on partnerships  
with key Food Aggregators to incorporate CCODs and 
wholesalers into their distribution networks.

Papua New Guinea
The business will continue to increase the efficiency and 
effectiveness of how it manages its routes to market, with the 
aim to gain more visibility on order placement and execution 
to drive sales. It also remains focused on productivity and 
efficiency improvements in manufacturing. 

While we were able to reduce the cash balance in PNG, 
foreign currency remains limited which restricts our ability  
to repatriate cash out of this market.

CORPORATE  
& SERVICES

Our Corporate & Services segment includes a variety of activities, including the Group corporate office functions 
and ancillary services such as property and equipment servicing.

Since 2017, Amatil’s Property Division has taken a Group-wide approach to asset management of owned and leased properties, 
leading to the sale of sites and facilities that were surplus to requirements, as well as the 2017 sale and leaseback of the 
Company’s flagship Richlands site. 

The Division has also rolled out a new property management system to provide increased controls and insights across the 
portfolio; commenced a review of the property footprint to develop long-term plans for all manufacturing sites; and overhauled 
facilities management processes.

2  Revenue from the provision of support services to the other businesses. This revenue is eliminated on consolidation to produce the Group’s  

financial statements. 

3  Represents costs associated with our packaging services and South Australian recycling businesses.

2020 PERFORMANCE
Trading revenue increased due to an increase in external 
preform sales and higher revenue from the South Australian 
recycling business. Reduction in Other revenue reflects the 
decline in coal mining royalties received in 2020. 

EBIT loss of $3.7 million improved compared to last year due 
to reduced Group Office costs as a result of cost saving 
initiatives undertaken in response to COVID-19.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE 

Coca-Cola Amatil’s approach to corporate governance  
goes beyond compliance. Both the Board and all levels of 
Management are fully committed to achieving the highest 
standards of corporate governance and business conduct.  
We see this commitment as fundamental to our vision of 
creating millions of moments of happiness and possibilities 
every day.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT
Under ASX Listing Rule 4.10.3, Coca-Cola Amatil is required 
to benchmark its corporate governance practices against the 
ASX Corporate Governance Council’s Corporate Governance 
Principles and Recommendations, 4th edition  
(ASX Governance Recommendations).

Coca-Cola Amatil confirms that it has complied with the  
ASX Governance Recommendations for the period 1 January 
2020 to 31 December 2020, as outlined in our 2020 Corporate 
Governance Statement and Appendix 4G, which can be found 
at www.ccamatil.com/au/About-us/Corporate-governance.

The Corporate Governance Statement, together with its 
accompanying Appendix 4G, has been approved by the Board 
and lodged with the ASX.

COCA-COLA AMATIL’S CORPORATE GOVERNANCE FRAMEWORK
The diagram on page 45 illustrates our corporate governance 
framework.

THE BOARD AND ITS ROLE
The Board represents and serves the interests of Coca-Cola 
Amatil’s Shareholders and is ultimately responsible for 
managing our business and affairs to the highest standards 
of corporate governance and business conduct. The Board 
also strives to protect and optimise Coca-Cola Amatil’s 
performance and build sustainable value for all stakeholders, 
according to its duties and obligations and within a framework 
of prudent and effective controls that enable risks to be 
assessed and managed.

The Board’s role and responsibilities, including those of its 
Committees, are set out in our Board Charter, which can be 
found at www.ccamatil.com/au/About-us/Corporate-
governance.

STRUCTURE AND COMPOSITION OF THE BOARD
Current Board members include one Executive Director  
(the Group Managing Director), two Non-Executive Directors 
(The Coca-Cola Company Nominee Directors) and five 
Independent Non-Executive Directors. Details of their 
qualifications and experience are set out on pages 46-47.

The Nominations Committee ensures the Board comprises 
Directors who have the skills, experience, knowledge and 
diversity needed to support our strategic objectives and fulfil 
our legal and regulatory requirements.

The Board Skills Matrix (Skills Matrix) is an important tool in 
this process and sets out the key skills and experience that 
the Board looks for, together with the details of what each 
Director brings to the Board. Each year, this Skills Matrix is 
reviewed and amended as appropriate. Each Director then 
undertakes a self-assessment against it to identify their skill 

44

level against each required skill. These self-assessments are 
consolidated and reviewed by the Board. The Board then 
determines its position on each Director’s self-assessment 
and identifies (a) any skill gaps or opportunities to be targeted 
in future Board appointments and (b) professional 
development initiatives for Directors.

The result of the FY2020 Skills Matrix review and assessment 
process is set out in the Corporate Governance Statement.

PERFORMANCE EVALUATION PROCESS
The performance evaluation process for the Board, its 
Committees, individual Directors and Key Management 
Personnel (KMP) is set out in the Corporate Governance 
Statement. Given their different roles and responsibilities, 
Directors’ remuneration policies and practices differ from 
those that apply to the Group Managing Director and KMP.

BOARD COMMITTEES
The Board has five standing Board Committees to help 
discharge its responsibilities. These are the:

 — Audit & Finance Committee;

 — Nominations Committee;

 — People Committee;

 — Risk & Sustainability Committee; and

 — Related Party Committee.

These Committees operate principally in a review or advisory 
capacity, except in cases where the Board specifically confers 
powers on a Committee. Each Committee has a charter, 
detailing its purpose, responsibilities and membership criteria.

DIVERSITY AND INCLUSION
At Coca-Cola Amatil, we believe that the diversity of our 
business, markets, customers and people is a critical factor 
for our growth and ongoing success. Our strategy is built on 
the foundation of a strong organisation – and one where we 
celebrate the possibilities created by a vibrant, diverse and 
inclusive workforce.

This broad approach allows us to build a team of people with 
different backgrounds, opinions and experiences who bring 
their differences to work every day. Our Diversity and 
Inclusion strategy and principles aim to support our diversity 
and scale, ensure our people feel engaged and valued, and 
deliver business outcomes.

RISK FRAMEWORK
The Board is responsible for ensuring that there are adequate 
systems and procedures in place to identify, assess, monitor 
and manage risks. During the year, the Risk & Sustainability 
Committee reviews reports by Management (and independent 
advisers) and, where appropriate, makes recommendations as 
to how the Board should respond to the material risks that 
Coca-Cola Amatil faces in the markets in which it operates. 
Other Committees (such as the Related Party Committee, the 
Audit & Finance Committee and the People Committee) 
review risk matters in more detail as required by their 
respective Charters.

The internal and external audit functions, which are separate 
and independent of each other, provide an independent and 
objective review of the way in which the Group assesses and 
manages risk. To preserve this independence, the Group Head 
of Risk, who is the head of the internal audit function, has  
a direct reporting line to the Chairman of the Audit & Finance 
Committee.

The Board’s Risk Management Policy formalises the Group’s 
approach to the oversight and management of material 
business risks. This policy is implemented through the 
establishment of Board-approved risk appetite statements,  
as well as a top-down and bottom-up approach to identifying, 
assessing, monitoring and managing key risks across Coca-
Cola Amatil’s business units. The principles Coca-Cola Amatil 
uses for assessing risk and the effectiveness of controls are 
based on the International Standard ISO 31000:2018 Risk 
Management – Principles and Guidelines.

Coca-Cola Amatil’s Risk Management Policy was updated  
and approved by the Risk & Sustainability Committee in 
May 2020.

COCA-COLA AMATIL POLICIES AND PRACTICES
The Coca-Cola Amatil Code of Conduct – ‘How We Do 
Business’ (Our Code of Conduct) was updated and approved 
by the Board in February 2021. It sets out the way in which 
our Directors, employees, contractors, consultants and  
third parties are required to conduct themselves every day. 
The document articulates our high standards of business 
conduct, built on our commitment to act fairly, morally  
and lawfully with all stakeholders.

The main Group-level policies relevant to conduct can be 
found at www.ccamatil.com/au/About-us/Corporate-
governance.

COMMUNICATIONS WITH SHAREHOLDERS
The rights of Coca-Cola Amatil’s Shareholders are detailed in 
Coca-Cola Amatil’s Constitution. Coca-Cola Amatil also has  
a Disclosure & Communications Policy, which requires  
Coca-Cola Amatil to inform Shareholders about its strategic 
objectives and major developments. To allow Shareholders to 
effectively exercise these rights, the Board ensures Shareholder 
communication is timely, relevant, useful and of high quality.

Coca-Cola Amatil communicates with Shareholders through 
ASX announcements, Company publications such as the 
Annual Report and the Sustainability Report, webcasting 
analyst and media briefings, General Meetings, Coca-Cola 
Amatil’s website and through our Investor Relations function.

THE VALUE  WE CREATEPERFORMANCE  GOVERNANCE  & RISKSFINANCIAL  & STATUTORY REPORTSOTHER  INFORMATIONOUR  BUSINESSBUSINESS AND  
SUSTAINABILITY RISKS

Coca-Cola Amatil is exposed to a range of market, 
financial, operational, and socio-political risks that 
could have an adverse effect on the Group’s future 
financial prospects. 

The nature and potential impact of these risks can change over 
time and vary in degree with what Coca-Cola Amatil can control. 
Coca-Cola Amatil has a risk management framework in place 
with internal control systems to mitigate these key business risks. 
For further information on Coca-Cola Amatil Limited’s risk 
management framework, refer to our Corporate Governance 
Statement at www.ccamatil.com. This includes discussion of 
Coca-Cola Amatil Limited’s approach under Principle 7 of the 
ASX Corporate Governance Council’s Corporate Governance 
Principles and Recommendations, 4th edition, being  
‘Recognise and Manage Risk’. 

In the medium to longer term, the direct effects of COVID-19 and 
measures introduced by the governments in all of the countries in 
which Amatil operates to limit the spread of COVID-19 may have a 
materially negative impact on economic growth in these 
countries, including the potential for further significant impacts 
on capital markets, share prices and the availability of finance. 
This is particularly the case in Indonesia given the duration and 
severity of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic to date. It is 
expected that the economic consequences of the ongoing 
COVID-19 pandemic are unlikely to be fully understood for  
some time. For example, the impact of the planned roll-off of the 
Australian Government’s COVID-19 related economic stimulus  
in March 2021 on bankruptcy rates, business confidence and 
employment is uncertain. Similarly, the longer-term effects on the 
Fijian economy from severely impacted tourism may not be known 
for some time.

THE COCA-COLA COMPANY (TCCC) AND OTHER BRAND 
PARTNERS RELATIONSHIP RISK

TCCC Group Relationship Risk
The Amatil Group’s relationship with TCCC Group is key to its 
success and forms a fundamental part of the Amatil Group’s core 
strategy. TCCC branded products form the majority of Amatil’s 
beverage business and are subject to various bottlers, 
distributors and license agreements with TCCC Group in the 
various markets in which Amatil operates. The Amatil Group’s 
bottler’s agreements with TCCC Group set out the respective 
rights and responsibilities of the relevant Amatil Group and  
TCCC Group entities, including:

 — The provision to the Amatil Group of exclusive rights to prepare, 
package, sell and distribute the relevant trademarked products 
of TCCC in a territory.

 — Obligations of the Amatil Group in relation to preparation and 

marketing requirements of TCCC. 

While the Amatil Group’s bottler’s agreements with TCCC Group 
are typically 10 years in duration and have consistently been 
extended or renewed, termination of the Amatil Group’s 
agreements with TCCC Group, or unfavourable changes in  
terms, could adversely affect Amatil’s profitability, share price 
and dividends.

In addition, realisation of Amatil’s growth ambition in large part 
depends on alignment with TCCC for growth within the non-
alcoholic beverage category (including through mergers and 
acquisitions) and growth into new geographies (new TCCC 
franchise territories). Therefore, the Amatil Group’s relationship 
with TCCC is of particular importance to Amatil’s future  
growth strategy.

The Amatil Group and TCCC Group also jointly own the  
Coca-Cola bottling operations in Indonesia, 70.6 per cent  
and 29.4 per cent respectively, and together own 45 per cent 
overall in Australia-based Made Group. Amatil’s ability to  
deal with and operate these assets is subject to those joint 
ownership arrangements.

Coca-Cola Amatil’s key business risks include, but are not  
limited to:

 — COVID-19 related risks.

 — The Coca-Cola Company (TCCC) and other brand  

partners relationship risk.

 — Economic and political risks.

 — Cyber risk.

 — Foreign exchange risk.

 — Key personnel risk.

 — Beverage industry risk.

 — Regulatory risk.

 — Corporate social responsibility risk.

 — Climate change risk.

 — Supply chain risk.

 — Litigation and legal disputes risk.

 — Malicious product tampering risk.

 — Workplace Health & Safety (WHS) risk.

 — Business interruption risk.

 — Product quality risk.

 — Fraud risk.

COVID-19 RELATED RISKS
Uncertainties in relation to the COVID-19 pandemic remain in all 
of the Amatil Group’s markets, particularly in Indonesia where, as 
at the date of this report, the number of confirmed infections 
continues to increase. Progress has been made in controlling the 
COVID-19 virus in Australia and New Zealand. However, the risk 
of the virus re-emerging in these jurisdictions remains, as 
indicated by the recent outbreaks in the Northern Beaches of 
Sydney, New South Wales and in Brisbane, Queensland and 
resultant Australian state border closures.

The short-term impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on  
Amatil’s business have included or could potentially include the 
following risks:

 — Low or negative volume and revenue growth, due to customers 

being closed or in decline and customers staying at home 
across the Amatil Group’s major markets. 

 — Margin erosion as a result of changes in channel mix due to 
social distancing restrictions in Amatil’s major markets, and 
specifically the shift to the grocery channel across Amatil’s 
markets and the decline in the On-The-Go Channels due to 
government-imposed restrictions on gatherings including 
sporting events.

50

COCA-COLA AMATIL ANNUAL REPORT 2020Other brand partners relationship risk
In addition to TCCC Group, the Amatil Group has a number of 
relationships with other brand partners in the non-alcoholic 
ready-to-drink, alcoholic and hot beverages industries which  
are important to Amatil’s success and long-term strategy.

In non-alcoholic beverages, these include agreements with 
Monster Energy Company and, in alcoholic beverages, Amatil has 
a number of complementary relationships with brand partners 
including Beam Suntory to sell and distribute Beam Suntory’s 
premium spirits portfolio in Australia and New Zealand.  
Amatil has been involved in distributing Beam Suntory products 
since 2006.

As with the Amatil Group’s agreement with TCCC Group, 
termination of Amatil’s agreements with any of its other brand 
partners could also adversely affect Amatil’s profitability, share 
price and dividends. However, all of Amatil’s brand partner 
relationships are based on delivering mutual benefit to Amatil’s 
brand partners and Amatil intends to continue to strive to deliver 
value for its brand partners into the future.

ECONOMIC AND POLITICAL RISKS
Aside from the economic risks arising from the COVID-19 
pandemic, the longer-term economic outlook presents increased 
uncertainty as governments address fiscal deterioration from 
their responses to COVID-19, including policies to encourage 
economic growth. This could have positive or negative 
implications for consumer spending across several areas, 
including in relation to food and beverage retailing. Other key 
external economic and political factors also have the potential to 
specifically impact Amatil including economic instability in Papua 
New Guinea and the impact on foreign currency liquidity, tariffs 
and protectionism, and geopolitical turbulence in the form of 
US-China Trade wars, trade tension between Australia and China, 
uncertain trade arrangements due to Brexit and ongoing Middle 
East tensions.

Further, in the event that circumstances lead to the PNG 
Government requiring assistance from the International Monetary 
Fund for the funding of their budget deficit, they could require the 
Papua New Guinean Kina to be devalued which could significantly 
impact Amatil Group’s balance sheet upon translation of both 
deposits and the intercompany loan, with a loss carried in Amatil 
Group’s foreign currency translation reserve.

Amatil is implementing a range of strategic initiatives over  
2021 to improve its operational efficiency and flexibility in the 
markets in which it operates to continue to manage these risks.

The Amatil Group maintains insurance coverage to protect 
against certain risks with such scope of coverage and in such 
amounts as determined appropriate by the Amatil Board and/or 
senior management and managing in the circumstances or to the 

AMATIL IS IMPLEMENTING A RANGE 
OF STRATEGIC INITIATIVES OVER 
2021 TO IMPROVE ITS OPERATIONAL 
EFFICIENCY AND FLEXIBILITY...

extent commercially available. However, given global insurance 
markets are hardening rapidly (resulting in less insurance 
capacity commercially available for Amatil to buy), Amatil’s 
insurance policies do not cover all of the potential risks 
associated with the Amatil Group’s operations. No assurance can 
be given that the Amatil Group will be able to obtain or maintain 
insurance coverage at reasonable rates (or at all).

CYBER RISK
Cyber security and information privacy are an increasing risk for 
the Amatil Group given the dynamic nature of these threats, and 
the importance of safeguarding intellectual property, supply 
chain systems, contractual agreements, operational technology 
and staff and customer information; and given the majority of 
Amatil’s core activities and operations are enabled by technology. 
Amatil is heavily reliant on these systems being available, data 
integrity being maintained and IT platforms operating effectively 
for business operations as well as to support the effective 
implementation of strategic plans. 

Cyber-attacks on the Amatil Group’s key business partners which 
do not directly target Amatil also have the potential to disrupt the 
Amatil Group’s operations. Amatil has a cyber security strategy 
and framework that is used to identify and address risks 
associated with cyber-attacks.

FOREIGN EXCHANGE RISK
The Amatil Group is exposed to foreign exchange risks. Foreign 
exchange risk is the risk of exposure to transactions that are 
denominated in a currency other than the Australian dollar. The 
Amatil Group is exposed to the effect of foreign exchange risk 
principally related to exposure to fluctuations in the value of the 
Australian dollar versus various currencies in which the Amatil 
Group borrows money. The Amatil Group is also exposed to the 
effect of foreign exchange risk due to fluctuations in the value of 
the Australian dollar, Indonesian Rupiah, Papua New Guinean 
Kina and New Zealand Dollar versus foreign currencies with 
respect to its commitments to make capital expenditure, the 
purchase of raw materials and other expenses, and the 
currencies of the other countries in which it maintains assets 
offshore and recognises earnings. Further, liquidity in the local 
Papua New Guinean currency market is also a risk for the Amatil 
Group. Amatil hedges exposure to foreign currency denominated 
borrowings (by the use of cross-currency and foreign exchange 
swap transactions) and foreign currency raw materials and 
capital expenditure exposure (by use of forward foreign exchange 
contracts and foreign currency deposits) in accordance with the 
Amatil Board approved Treasury Policy. However, there can be no 
assurance that the Amatil Group will be successful in eliminating 
all such foreign currency risks.

51

THE VALUE  WE CREATEPERFORMANCE  GOVERNANCE  & RISKSFINANCIAL  & STATUTORY REPORTSOTHER  INFORMATIONOUR  BUSINESSBUSINESS AND SUSTAINABILITY RISKS (CONTINUED)

KEY PERSONNEL RISK 
The Amatil Group’s ability to recruit, retain and engage a talented 
and motivated workforce is a key success factor for the Amatil 
Group. In particular, a number of key personnel are important to 
executing the Amatil Group’s strategy. One or more of these key 
employees could leave their employment or cease to actively 
participate in the management of the Amatil Group and this may 
adversely affect the ability of Amatil to conduct its business and, 
accordingly, affect its financial performance and its share price. 

If certain key employees leave their employment with the Amatil 
Group, there may be a limited number of persons with the 
requisite experience and skills to serve in Amatil’s senior 
management positions. While Amatil continues to work towards 
building a strong employer brand, commits to developing and 
retaining talent and has established Company-wide engagement 
principles to drive engagement across the Amatil Group, if the 
Amatil Group cannot attract, train and retain qualified managers 
and other personnel, Amatil may be unable to successfully 
manage its operations or otherwise compete effectively.

BEVERAGE INDUSTRY RISK
Fundamental shifts in the beverage and macroeconomic 
landscape continue to impact the beverage profit pool across the 
Amatil Group. These include changing consumer trends and 
preferences (as well as changing industry cycles), a fragmented 
and price competitive trading environment, increasing margin 
pressure as manufacturer margins are squeezed by major 
retailers, digital disruption to supply chain and traditional ‘bricks 
and mortar’ retailers, and increased legislation and regulation.  
A primary driver is the health and wellness concerns around 
sugar and artificiality that are continuing to shift consumer 
preferences towards low- and no-kilojoule products, especially  
in developed countries.

Amatil seeks to mitigate these risks through working with brand 
partners to respond to changing trends as well as diversifying its 
growth options through Amatil’s growth ambition as described in 
the 2021 priorities for each of Amatil’s businesses. Amatil also 
continues to engage with stakeholders to raise awareness of the 
impacts of additional regulations and find industry-led initiatives 
to achieve public policy objectives. However, if the Amatil Group 
fails to drive market growth in established categories and provide 
the types of products that some of its consumers prefer, this 
could adversely affect the Amatil Group’s business and financial 
results, share price and/or future dividend payments. 

REGULATORY RISK
The regulatory and political environment in all of the Amatil 
Group’s operating jurisdictions continues to add to the 
complexity of Amatil’s business. As a result, the Amatil Group is 
vulnerable to frequent regulatory interventions, such as taxes on 
sugar, plastic and other packaging and waste, restrictions on 
marketing activity, additional mandatory product labelling 
requirements, evolving and expanding climate change risk 
disclosures (as further discussed below) and increased 
entitlements for casual workers. Amatil continues to engage  
with stakeholders to raise awareness of the impacts of  
additional regulations and develop initiatives to achieve  
public policy objectives. 

CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY RISKS
Amatil is committed to making a distinct and positive 
contribution to the communities and markets in which it 
operates, through product innovation to meet consumer demand, 
packaging innovation to reduce waste, environmental initiatives 
to reduce the Amatil Group’s impact, supporting human rights, 
and supporting diversity and inclusion in the workplace. However, 
a failure to deliver on Amatil’s consumer, investor and community 
expectations in relation to the social and environmental impacts 
created by the Amatil Group’s activities could result in damage to 
the Amatil Group’s brand, reputation and consumer sentiment.

52

CLIMATE CHANGE RISK
The global climate is changing and will continue to change in 
ways that affect the planning and day-to-day operations of 
businesses. The manifestations of climate change that have the 
potential to impact Coca-Cola Amatil are two-fold:

 — Physical consequences relating to the physical changes to 

climatic conditions.

 — Transitional consequences relating to the shift to a resilient, 
low carbon economy through changes in policy, regulation, 
technology, market and reputation associated with adaptation 
to a new climate paradigm and decarbonisation of the  
global economy.

Coca-Cola Amatil recognises the importance of disclosing 
climate related risks and opportunities in line with the 
recommendations of the Task Force on Climate Related Financial 
Disclosures (TCFD), and will continue to improve its assessment, 
management and disclosure approach in line with these 
recommendations.

Improving our understanding of climate related risks 
and opportunities:
In 2019 Coca-Cola Amatil completed a third-party, primarily 
qualitative, climate change risk and opportunity assessment out 
to 2050. This assessment confirmed that climate change effects 
that have the potential to impact Coca-Cola Amatil include 
changes in weather patterns such as increased temperatures, 
altered rainfall patterns, and more frequent or intense extreme 
events such as heatwaves, drought, storms and increased 
frequency of natural disasters. These may cause major business 
disruption, increased energy costs, and key input scarcity  
(such as water, sugar and other agricultural ingredients).

Governance and risk management
In addition to the assessment conducted in 2019, climate change 
risk assessment is integrated into the enterprise risk assessment 
processes and reporting, including being part of regular reports  
to the Risk and Sustainability Committee of the Board on 
business risks and controls.  

Targets and plans
Coca-Cola Amatil has set a target for net zero carbon emissions 
across the Amatil Group by 2040. This net-zero target  
covers those emissions under our direct control, being scope  
1 & 2 emissions as defined under the Greenhouse Gas Protocol.  
Coca-Cola Amatil also supports and is included in The Coca-Cola 
Company’s Science-Based Target of 25 per cent reduction by 
2030 compared to 2015, which covers value chain scope  
1, 2 and 3 emissions.

Coca-Cola Amatil already has management plans in place  
for most of the identified risks including business continuity 
frameworks which are tested regularly to reduce the impact of  
any major disruption. In addition, Coca-Cola Amatil has water 
stewardship and efficiency strategies, energy efficiency and 
renewable energy initiatives and strong supplier review processes 
and relationships. In light of the 2019 assessment Coca-Cola 
Amatil is working to improve its understanding of its own 
emissions profile, and that of major suppliers, and developing  
a comprehensive plan to address the physical and transition 
risks identified.  

Further climate change disclosure
We provide additional disclosures through our annual 
sustainability reporting, our annual CDP (formerly Carbon 
Disclosure Project) Climate Change Response, and our annual 
CDP Water Response.

SUPPLY CHAIN RISK
Disruptions in Amatil’s supply chain due to the failure of a key 
supplier to meet its contractual obligations or obligations under 
modern slavery laws have the potential to significantly impact the 

COCA-COLA AMATIL ANNUAL REPORT 2020Amatil Group’s operations. Supply chain risk is most likely to 
result from a supplier’s inability to perform contractual supply 
obligations; for example, due to unforeseen circumstances or a 
labour dispute.

The Amatil Group’s management work with stakeholders across 
the Amatil Group’s business to ensure the Amatil Group has the 
appropriate supply continuity plans in place for key inputs.  
The Amatil Group is also able to transfer some residual supplier 
exposure by way of business interruption insurance. Amatil is 
committed to working with its suppliers to eradicate modern 
slavery from Amatil’s supply chain, and Amatil expects all 
suppliers to comply with Amatil’s Code of Conduct. The Amatil 
Risk and Sustainability Committee has also approved a Human 
Rights Policy which outlines the Amatil Board’s commitment  
to supporting human rights.

LITIGATION AND LEGAL DISPUTES RISK
From time to time, the Amatil Group may be party to claims, 
disputes and legal proceedings. If the Amatil Group is involved in 
such claims, disputes or legal proceedings, this may disrupt the 
Amatil Group’s business operations, cause the Amatil Group to 
incur significant legal costs and may divert management’s 
attention away from the day-to-day operations of the business.

MALICIOUS PRODUCT TAMPERING RISK
The Amatil Group is at risk of malicious product tampering or 
material threat of malicious product tampering which may have 
an adverse financial impact on the Amatil Group. This may result 
from an initial product recall, impacting short-term sales, as well 
as a potentially longer-term adverse financial outcome, due to a 
loss of brand image and a loss of customer and consumer 
confidence in markets where product tampering occurs.

To mitigate this risk, Amatil: 

 — continues to maintain high quality controls throughout its 

supply chain;

 — maintains comprehensive product quality audits of suppliers 

and testing and batch release procedures;

 — actively manages and investigates customer complaints;

 — continues to adopt the latest techniques to improve  

product security; and 

 — continues to proactively manage, monitor and enforce 

intellectual property breaches.

WORKPLACE HEALTH AND SAFETY RISK 
The Amatil Group has a work, health and safety (WHS) framework 
which is employed across the Amatil Group. While the Amatil 
Group has historically experienced low injury rates, the risk of 
serious injury through industrial and traffic accidents remains  
in all of the Amatil Group’s markets due to the nature of the 
manufacturing and distribution business. Amatil’s WHS 

framework is reviewed on a regular basis by management and 
audited externally. Additionally, management continues to invest 
in initiatives to reduce WHS related risks.

BUSINESS INTERRUPTION RISK 
A manufacturing shutdown or disruption to business could have  
a major impact on profit and on the Amatil Group’s reputation 
with both consumers and customers. The Amatil Group seeks  
to mitigate business interruption risk by ensuring that incident 
management, crisis response and business continuity 
frameworks are in place to address events (for example fire, 
explosion, civil unrest, terrorist attack or pandemics) that could 
result in a business disruption. Amatil also has appropriate 
insurance coverage in place to materially reduce the impact  
of significant business disruption due to loss or damage to its 
assets. It also has a proven track record in managing the impact 
of crises or significant incidents.

PRODUCT QUALITY RISK 
The risk of product contamination exists for beverages currently 
made or sold by the Amatil Group and particularly in relation to 
sensitive beverages. Given the Amatil Group’s large beverage 
production volumes, it seeks to address quality issues through 
product quality measures, risk management activities and 
incident management processes, as well as quality assurance 
programs and audits.

FRAUD RISK 
While overall losses have been insignificant across the  
Amatil Group, fraud activity has the potential to create larger 
reputational and cultural impacts. Management has zero 
tolerance for any fraud activity regardless of size and remains 
vigilant to constantly review frameworks and systems and 
activities to reduce the risk of fraudulent activity. Bribery and 
corruption risks exist in all the Amatil Group’s markets, and 
particularly in our developing markets (Indonesia, PNG and the 
Pacific Islands). Amatil has a robust framework in place to 
mitigate the risk of bribery and corruption in all markets and to 
ensure that payments made to all third parties are transparent.

FURTHER DISCLOSURE 
Further information in relation to strategy, prospects for future 
financial years and business risks has not been disclosed. In the 
opinion of the Directors, such disclosures would unreasonably 
prejudice the interests of the Group, by providing competitors 
information that Coca-Cola Amatil regards as being commercially 
sensitive to the business.

9	 SHARE	RIGHTS
Details of movements in share rights during the financial year are included in Note 18 to the financial statements within the  
Financial Report.

10	 ENVIRONMENTAL	REGULATION	AND	PERFORMANCE
Management of environmental issues is a core component of operational management within the Group’s businesses. The Group  
is committed to understanding and minimising any adverse environmental impacts of its beverage manufacturing and distribution 
activities, recognising that the key areas of environmental impact are water and energy use, the lifecycle of our packaging and litter,  
and carbon emissions. 

Group policy is to ensure all environmental laws and permit conditions are observed. The Group monitors its environmental issues at an 
operational level, overlaid with a risk management and compliance system overseen by the Risk & Sustainability Committee. Although 
the Group’s various operations involve relatively low inherent environmental risks, matters of non-compliance are identified from time  
to time and are addressed as part of routine management, and typically notified to the appropriate regulatory authority as required.

11	 SIGNIFICANT	CHANGES	IN	THE	STATE	OF	AFFAIRS
In the opinion of the Directors, other than as referred to in the OFR, there have been no significant changes in the state of affairs for  
the year.

12	 ACQUISITION	BY	COCA-COLA	EUROPEAN	PARTNERS
On 4 November 2020, we announced that Coca-Cola Amatil had entered into an agreement with Coca-Cola European Partners plc 
(CCEP) for the acquisition of all of the issued shares held by independent Shareholders pursuant to a Scheme of Arrangement  
(CCEP Scheme of Arrangement or Scheme). Under the agreement, independent Shareholders would receive total cash consideration  
of $12.75 per share, less any final dividend in respect of the half year ended 31 December 2020 (2H 2020) declared and paid to 
Shareholders before the date of implementation of any Scheme. We also announced that CCEP had entered into a separate agreement 
to acquire the Amatil shares indirectly held by The Coca-Cola Company, conditional upon implementation of the Scheme  
(CCEP/TCCC Transaction).

On 15 February 2021, we announced that Amatil had entered into a revised agreement with CCEP that increases the total cash 
consideration that independent Shareholders will receive under the Scheme from $12.75 per share to $13.50 cash per share. Consistent 
with the initial offer, the total cash consideration would be reduced by the cash amount of the final dividend in respect of 2H 2020. 
CCEP has declared that this is its best and final offer. There were no changes to the CCEP/TCCC Transaction. 

Independent Shareholders will have the opportunity to vote on the Scheme at the upcoming Amatil Scheme Meeting scheduled to 
occur in mid-April 2021. A draft scheme booklet containing relevant information on the Scheme is expected to be submitted to ASIC on 
or before 22 February 2021 and dispatched to independent Shareholders in mid-March 2021. 

The Amatil Related Party Committee and Group Managing Director, Alison Watkins, unanimously recommend that independent 
Shareholders vote in favour of the Scheme, in the absence of a superior proposal and subject to the independent expert concluding 
(and continuing to conclude) that the Scheme is fair and reasonable and in the best interests of independent Shareholders. 

Australian Foreign Investment Review Board approval for the Scheme was obtained on 29 January 2021. However, the Scheme remains 
subject to a number of other conditions including New Zealand Overseas Investment Office approval, independent Shareholder 
approval and Australian court approval.

COCA-COLA AMATIL ANNUAL REPORT 202013	 EVENTS	AFTER	THE	BALANCE	DATE
Subsequent to the balance sheet date, other than noted in 12 above, no matters or circumstances have arisen since the end of the 
financial year that have significantly affected, or may significantly affect, the operations, the results of those operations or the state 
of affairs of the Group in subsequent financial periods.

14	 ROUNDING
The Company is of a kind referred to in the Australian Securities and Investments Commission Corporations (Rounding in Financial/
Directors’ Reports) Instrument 2016/191, and, accordingly, amounts in this Report and the Financial Report have been rounded off to 
the nearest hundred thousand dollars, unless otherwise stated.

15	 AUDITOR	INDEPENDENCE	AND	NON-AUDIT	SERVICES
Auditor’s Independence Declaration

A copy of the auditor’s independence declaration as required under section 307C of the Corporations Act 2001 is set out on page 140.

Non-audit services

The following non-audit services were provided by the Company’s auditor, Ernst & Young (Australia). The Directors are satisfied that the 
provision of non audit services is compatible with the general standard of independence for auditors imposed by the Corporations Act 
2001. The nature and scope of each type of non-audit service provided mean that auditor independence was not compromised.

Ernst & Young (Australia) received or is due to receive the following amounts for the provision of non-audit services:

2020 remuneration outcomes

When reviewing 2020 remuneration outcomes for KMP Senior 
Executives, the Board considered what we set out to achieve at 
the beginning of 2020, our response to the COVID-19 pandemic, 
each individual’s achievements against their individual scorecard, 
and our overarching remuneration accountability framework. 

Financial targets for 2020 were set before the COVID-19 
pandemic began and were not revised during the year. 

The New Zealand business was a standout performer continuing 
momentum from 2019 and was the only business to achieve the 
financial targets set for 2020. 

Short Term Incentive Plan (STIP) outcomes for 2020 range from 
30% to 115% of target. These outcomes are significantly lower 
than those for previous years. The Board have sought to 
recognise the significant contributions each of the KMP Senior 
Executives have made to the Group and for you as Shareholders, 
through an incredibly challenging year. 

The 2018-2020 Long Term Incentive Plan (LTIP) partially vested 
(66.7% of maximum) and rewarded our KMP Senior Executives for 
the successful completion of our transition period, our strong 
focus on cost control and our positive business momentum, 
despite the challenges placed on us through the pandemic.  
The Board considered the impact of the CCEP Scheme of 
Arrangement (Scheme) on our share price in the later part of 
2020 and contribution to the vesting outcome. The Board 
approved vesting on the basis the LTIP was performing well prior 
to the Scheme announcement and was expected to vest. Overall, 
the vesting of the LTIP is aligned to the returns management 
delivered to Shareholders over the period and rewards for the 
work management delivered which generated the momentum 
evident in our results.

Looking ahead – the CCEP Scheme of Arrangement

As announced on 4 November 2020, Amatil and CCEP have 
entered into a Scheme for the acquisition of issued shares held 
by independent Shareholders of Amatil. The Scheme remains 
subject to various conditions, including a vote by independent 
Shareholders and Australian court approval. Remuneration 
arrangements specific to the Scheme will be set out in a  
separate scheme booklet which is expected to be dispatched  
to Shareholders in mid-March 2021. Necessary changes to 
Amatil’s remuneration approach in connection with the  
Scheme which apply in the beginning of 2021 are noted in  
this Remuneration Report.

I invite you to review the Remuneration Report and trust you will 
find it informative. On behalf of the Board I would like to thank 
you for your continued support.

MESSAGE	FROM	THE	PEOPLE	COMMITTEE	CHAIR

Dear Shareholder

I am pleased to introduce the Amatil Remuneration Report for 
2020. This report sets out the remuneration information for  
KMP Senior Executives and Non-Executive Directors, and 
describes the Group’s remuneration framework. 

2020 was a challenging trading environment impacted by 
bushfires on the east coast of Australia, flooding in Indonesia 
early in the year and the COVID-19 pandemic through the 
remainder of the year. Our strong financial position, continued 
focus on cost reduction and strategic momentum from 2019 
positioned the Company well to weather the challenges in 2020. 
However, despite the improving conditions towards the end of 
2020, particularly in Australia and New Zealand, the year saw 
volatility and a decline in volumes and trading revenue in most of 
our businesses. This has impacted remuneration outcomes for 
KMP Senior Executives during the year as outlined in this report.

58

COCA-COLA AMATIL ANNUAL REPORT 2020CCEP	SCHEME	OF	ARRANGEMENT	–	REMUNERATION	IMPLICATIONS
As announced on 4 November 2020, Coca-Cola Amatil Limited (Amatil, the Company or the Group) and Coca-Cola European 
Partners have entered into the Scheme for the acquisition of issued shares held by independent Shareholders of Amatil. Therefore, 
the Amatil Board has made necessary changes to Amatil’s usual remuneration approach for 2021 in connection with the Scheme to 
recognise the upcoming vote, and Amatil will be delisted from the Australian Stock Exchange (ASX) if the Scheme is implemented. 

The changes to Amatil’s remuneration framework as a result of the Scheme are noted below.

KMP Senior Executive remuneration 

 — 2020 STIP: The 2020 STIP for KMP Senior Executives will be paid in cash with no deferred share component. Per our 

approach in previous years, Amatil would normally defer 40% of the STIP for up to two years. This change was made given the 
expected timing of the Scheme, subject to various conditions, including the receipt of regulatory approvals, and approval by 
independent Shareholders and the Supreme Court of New South Wales. 

 — 2021-2023 LTIP award and 2021 STIP: Due to the Scheme, no 2021-2023 LTIP awards will be made to KMP Senior 

Executives. To reflect that no LTIP will be awarded in 2021, the 2021 STIP will be increased for KMP Senior Executives 
(excluding the Group Managing Director). The increase will reflect the value of what is fair and reasonable, taking into account 
the performance period of the 2021 STIP in comparison with the 2021-2023 LTIP. In the event the transaction does not 
proceed, and depending on timing, the Board may consider alternative arrangements, including reverting to a remuneration 
approach for 2021 which is similar to previous years. 

 — 2021 fixed remuneration: There will be no increases to KMP Senior Executive fixed remuneration for 2021, including the 

Group Managing Director. 

Non-Executive Director fees

In accordance with Amatil’s constitution and the Scheme Implementation Deed, Amatil Independent Non-Executive Directors,  
Mr Mark Graham Johnson and Ms Penelope Ann Winn, will each receive a one-off fee equal to $25,000 plus applicable 
superannuation for their attendance and participation in the work of a sub-committee in relation to the scheme booklet.  
The relevant fees are payable upon the draft scheme booklet being lodged with ASIC regardless of whether the Scheme 
subsequently completes.

When reviewing 2020 remuneration outcomes for KMP Senior Executives, the Board considered what we set out to achieve at the 
beginning of 2020, our response to the COVID-19 pandemic, each individual’s achievements against their individual scorecard, and 
our overarching remuneration accountability framework. Additionally, the Board considered the guidelines released by ASIC on 
executive variable pay for 2020. For 2020, The Board exercised discretion in accordance with our usual process for the STIP and 
increased the calculated 2020 STIP outcome for Greg Barnes to reflect the significant personal and professional contribution to the 
Scheme. This was the only exercise of Board discretion in relation to incentive outcomes in 2020 for KMP Senior Executives.

ADJUSTMENTS TO UNVESTED STIP SHARES OR LTIP AWARDS

Each year, the People Committee considers whether any events have occurred (or become apparent) during the year that merit an 
increase and/or reduction to unvested STIP shares or LTIP awards. Applying Amatil’s remuneration accountability framework, the 
Committee considered the 2020 calendar year and determined that no such adjustment was required for KMP Senior Executives.

3	 2020	PERFORMANCE	ASSESSMENT

2020 was a challenging trading environment impacted by bushfires on the east coast of Australia and flooding in Indonesia early in 
the year, followed by the COVID-19 pandemic through the remainder of the year. Amatil’s strong financial position, continued focus 
on cost reduction and strategic momentum from 2019 set us up well to weather the challenges in 2020. Financial targets were 
approved by the Board before the COVID-19 pandemic began and were not revised during the year. 

 — 2020 STIP: The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic is evident in STIP outcomes for 2020. The negative impact on profit,  
and volumes within the year for each business has led to STIP outcomes significantly lower than previous years. The  
New Zealand business was the standout performer achieving profit and revenue targets which were set at the beginning  
of the year and this is reflected in the STIP outcome for the Managing Director, Pacific.

 — 2018 – 2020 LTIP: The LTIP achieved partial vesting (66.7% of maximum) and rewarded our KMP Senior Executives for the 

successful completion of our transition period over the last three years, our strong focus on cost control and our positive business 
momentum, despite the challenges placed on us through the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020. The impact of the CCEP Scheme of 
Arrangement on the LTIP was considered. However, the Board approved vesting given the LTIP was performing well prior to the 
announcement and was expected to vest, and the reward to executives is aligned to the returns generated for Shareholders.

2020 STIP

Profit	(50%)

Profit for the purposes of the STIP  
is measured as profit on an ongoing 
basis1. This is to support a primary 
focus on ongoing trading performance. 
This was a change for 2020 and was 
communicated in our 2019 
Remuneration Report. 

With the exception of the New Zealand 
business, profit performance for the 
Group and the remaining businesses 
was below the targets set by the Board 
at the outset of the year and did not 
result in a payment under the STIP. 

The New Zealand business achieved 
above target profit performance which 
is an outstanding result and is 
reflected in the outcome for the 
Managing Director, Pacific. 

No adjustments were made to profit 
results for incentive purposes for 2020. 

Revenue	(20%)

Individual	objectives	(30%)

Revenue is included in the STIP to 
reflect the importance of the Group 
and businesses in delivering 
sustainable revenue growth. 

With the exception of the New Zealand 
business, revenue performance for the 
Group and the remaining businesses 
was below the targets set by the Board 
at the outset of the year and did not 
result in a payment under the STIP. 

The New Zealand business achieved 
stretch revenue performance reflecting 
increases in revenue compared to 
2019, despite the challenging trading 
conditions presented by the COVID-19 
pandemic. The strong revenue 
performance for New Zealand is 
reflected in the outcome for the 
Managing Director, Pacific.

Each year Amatil reviews KMP Senior 
Executive performance anchoring on 
the individual objectives set and 
approved by the People Committee  
at the start of the year. 

As 2020 turned out to be a very 
different year than expected, a reset  
of focus was needed, and further 
judgement and consideration of 
individual performance was necessary 
when assessing full-year performance. 
The People Committee has sought to 
recognise the significant contributions 
made by KMP Senior Executives in 
responding to the COVID-19 pandemic, 
leading the business in challenging 
times and maintaining Amatil’s strong 
financial position.

The 2018-2020 LTIP applies our historic

EPS and a simple average). As communicated 
last year, this methodology was changed for 
the 2020-2022 LTIP.

4	 2020	KMP	SENIOR	EXECUTIVE	REMUNERATION	OUTCOMES
The following section sets out the value of the remuneration received by current KMP Senior Executives during the year, along with 
performance commentary. The figures in the charts below differ from those outlined in the statutory table later in Section 8 mainly 
because the statutory table includes an apportioned accounting value for all unvested LTIP grants (which remain subject to the 
satisfaction of performance and service conditions and may not ultimately vest). 

The values disclosed in the charts, while not in accordance with the accounting standards, are intended to help Shareholders better 
understand the linkages between performance and the remuneration realised by the KMP Senior Executives in relation to 2020. The 
actual remuneration received for 2020 includes the following:

 — Fixed remuneration relates to base salary plus superannuation.

 — Benefits relates to leave accruals, non-monetary benefits (product allowance, insurance premiums provided through the Amatil 
superannuation plan and annual health check) and other benefits such as car allowance and club membership (Mr Litchfield)  
and a recreation allowance and expatriate benefits (Mr Gunduz).

 — Cash STIP relates to the 2020 STIP (which is payable in March 2021).

 — Vested deferred STIP relates to vesting of the share component of the STIP from prior year incentives. The value represents  

the post-tax amount used to purchase Amatil shares. 

 — Vested LTIP relates to the 2018-2020 LTIP which partially vested in relation to the absolute TSR and relative TSR measures 
(valued as at 31 December 2020). Vested share rights will be converted into shares at the next trading window. In any event, 
including if there is no share trading window, the Board retains discretion to settle share rights as cash equivalent per the  
LTIP plan rules.

 — Employee Share Plan relates to the MyAmatil Employee Share Plan (ESP) matching shares that vested during 2020  

(value represents the amount used to purchase Amatil shares).

Performance 
measures and

The STIP is an annual incentive plan which seeks to incentivise strong performance from KMP Senior 
Executives. Awards under the STIP are based on performance for the year from 1 January 2020 to  
31 December 2020.

Rationale and application

50%

20%

To reflect the importance of delivering to the expectations of our 
Shareholders, profit and revenue are used together in the STIP. The 
intention is to ensure an appropriate focus on sustainable revenue growth, 
which is also profitable.

The performance of the Group Managing Director and the Group Chief 
Financial Officer is measured on the Group results, whereas the managing 
directors of individual businesses are assessed predominantly on the 
performance of their businesses, with only a small portion assessed 
against the Group result.

A threshold, target and stretch are set for Group and each business based 
on the business plan and the degree of difficulty the People Committee 
and management believe is inherent in the targets. Each individual 
business therefore has a different threshold and stretch.

This component is based on the achievement of objectives set at the 
beginning of the year. Each objective details a specific goal, and the 
related tasks and measures of success. They can include further financial 
metrics and qualitative objectives with relevant measures. Weightings are 
assigned to each objective to reflect their relative importance to delivery 
of the strategy and required focus.

For Group: Measured as NPAT and EBIT for the year attributable to Shareholders of Coca-Cola Amatil Limited for 
continuing operations and before non-trading items. We believe the use of these two measures together, and weighted 
equally, ensures a focus on the profit result generated for Shareholders, and reflects the performance of the 
businesses (as better represented by the EBIT result). 
For each business: measured as EBIT. 

In addition to assessing financial performance and individual business objectives, the People Committee 
considers the remuneration accountability framework, any other results through the year (that were not 
reflected in the objectives), and how the performance was delivered (through demonstrating strong 
leadership aligned with the Amatil values).

Deferral

As a result of the proposed CCEP Scheme of Arrangement and as outlined earlier in this report,  
the 2020 STIP will be paid in cash. 

The typical approach that would have applied is 60% of the post-tax award is paid as cash and  
40% is delivered in Coca-Cola Amatil Limited shares. Half of the shares are subject to a one-year holding 
period and half are subject to a two-year holding period.

Vesting

60% paid as cash

20% shares restricted for two years

Vesting

The shares are purchased on market and held irrespective of whether the KMP Senior Executive is employed 
by the Group during this period. The individual receives dividends and voting rights on the shares during this 
time. The shares are released to the individual at the end of the holding period.

If an individual is terminated for cause prior to the release date of the shares, the shares are forfeited.

Board discretion 

The Board has the discretion to reduce the STIP outcome and/or the number of unvested STIP shares 
(including to zero), if it judges such an action appropriate. With the deferred STIP shares, the Board considers 
the application of malus before any scheduled release of unvested shares.

2020-2022 LTIP 

The table below outlines key features of the 2020-2022 LTIP for KMP Senior Executives:

Purpose

The LTIP is an equity incentive plan used to align the reward of KMP Senior Executives to the returns 
generated for Coca-Cola Amatil Limited Shareholders. 

Participants 

KMP Senior Executives. 

Opportunity

Type of award

The maximum face value for the Group Managing Director is 160% of fixed remuneration, and 80% for other 
KMP Senior Executives.

Rights – each right entitles the participant to receive one Coca-Cola Amatil Limited share (or cash equivalent 
at the Board’s discretion), subject to meeting performance conditions. 

There are no dividend entitlements or voting rights attached to the rights awarded. The entitlement to receive 
dividends and voting rights only applies if the rights vest and shares are acquired.

Allocation approach 

The maximum number of rights granted is determined on a face value basis as follows:

Fixed 
remuneration at 
the time of grant
$

Maximum 
award  
opportunity
%

Share price $
(no discount  
applied)

=

Number of rights 
granted

The share price used is the volume weighted average share price of Coca-Cola Amatil Limited shares over the 
30 days preceding the beginning of the performance period. To achieve vesting of the maximum number of 
rights, each of the performance conditions must be met in full at their stretch levels of performance.

Performance period

Three years from 1 January 2020 to 31 December 2022.

There is no retesting of performance if performance conditions are not met at the end of the three-year 
performance period.

Board discretion 

The Board has the discretion to reduce the number of unvested LTIP rights (including to zero), where 
appropriate. The Board considers the application of malus before any scheduled release of unvested  
LTIP rights.

68

COCA-COLA AMATIL ANNUAL REPORT 2020Cessation of 
employment

Where a participant resigns or is terminated for cause before the end of the performance period, all rights 
will lapse immediately.

Unless the Board determines otherwise, if a participant ceases employment before the end of the 
performance period for any other reason:

 — rights will be pro rated to the date of cessation and tested against the performance conditions at the 
end of the performance period if more than one-third of the performance period has elapsed, or

 — all rights will lapse immediately if less than one-third of the performance period has elapsed.

In addition to the above, Ms Watkins’ employment contract specifies that on cessation of employment the 
minimum one-year service requirement for pro-rata eligibility for existing LTIP grants will not apply.

Change of control 

In the event of a change of control prior to the end of the performance period, the Board has retained 
discretion to determine the level of vesting of any unvested LTIP awards.

What are the 
performance 
conditions and why 
were they chosen? 

LTIP performance 
conditions

Absolute TSR

The performance measures have been changed for  
the 2020-2022 LTIP grant, and include absolute  
TSR, relative TSR and absolute EPS (reintroduced  
for the 2020-2022 LTIP). 

The three performance measures are each assessed 
independently as one-third of the award.

The performance conditions, targets and vesting schedules are 
reviewed each year prior to grants being made, to ensure they 
align with Group strategy and the interests of Shareholders.

  Absolute TSR 

  Relative TSR 

  Absolute EPS 

⅓

Reason for selection

The use of both measures of absolute and relative TSR rewards for both absolute and relative Shareholder 
value creation, and the Board believes that the two measures complement each other. The absolute measure 
has the key benefit of providing executives with a clear known level of Shareholder return to attain through 
delivering on the business strategy and generating share price growth and dividends for Shareholders.  
The relative measure provides a direct link between the reward earned and the Shareholder return achieved 
relative to Amatil’s ASX peers. 

EPS has been reintroduced as a performance measure with targets aligned to our Shareholder  
Value Proposition.

Absolute TSR is the percentage increase in a company’s share price plus reinvested dividends during the 
performance period. TSR therefore reflects the increase in value delivered to Shareholders over the period. 

Approach

The Group’s absolute TSR is measured over the performance period and assessed relative to a target of  
8% compound annual growth rate (CAGR) for partial vesting and a target for maximum vesting of 12% CAGR.

Relative TSR

Relative TSR reflects Amatil’s TSR performance relative to the TSR performance of a group of  
selected peers.

Approach

The Group’s Relative TSR is measured over the performance period and assessed against the TSR of the 
comparator group over the same period. Coca-Cola Amatil Limited is then given a percentile ranking based 
on its comparative TSR performance. The comparator group comprises the ASX 100 (less financial and 
mining companies) as defined at the start of the performance period, reflecting a peer group of comparable 
top 100 Australian listed companies.

Calculation of results

Absolute EPS

Approach

Profit for the purposes of EPS will be measured based on net profit after tax attributable to Shareholders of 
Coca-Cola Amatil Limited for continuing operations and before non-trading items. This was effective for the 
2020-2022 LTIP grant.

This will support a primary focus on underlying trading performance. The Board will consider any one-off 
items that occur that impact EPS and, where appropriate, hold executives accountable with appropriate 
disclosure to Shareholders.

In response to shareholder feedback, the EPS performance measure uses a CAGR target which is assessed 
at the end of the three-year performance period. This contrasts with our historic approach to EPS for LTIP 
purposes where a simple average was used.

Roles in determining remuneration

The table below sets out the roles of the Board, the People Committee and management in relation to Board and  
KMP Senior Executive remuneration:

BOARD

• Accountable for KMP remuneration.

• Approves Group Managing Director remuneration, including the application of the accountability framework.

• Approves Non-Executive Director remuneration (with shareholder approval required for the overall limit).

MANAGEMENT

PEOPLE COMMITTEE

EXTERNAL INDEPENDENT ADVICE

•  Prepares recommendations and 
information for the Committee’s 
consideration and approval.

•  Implements the approved 

remuneration arrangements.

•  Makes recommendations to 

the Board on Group Managing 
Director and Non-Executive 
Director remuneration.

•  Approves executive reward 

strategy, incentive plans, KMP 
Senior Executive remuneration 
and application of the 
accountability framework.

•  Seeks input and advice from 
other Committees on matters 
that relate to KMP Senior 
Executive remuneration 
(e.g. risk management, safety 
performance etc).

The People Committee also has 
access to independent advice. In 
2020, the Committee continued to 
utilise PricewaterhouseCoopers. 
No remuneration recommendations 
(as defined by the Corporations Act 
2001) were provided in 2020. Advice 
was limited to market information 
with respect to the Group Managing 
Director’s and the Non-Executive 
Directors’ remuneration, and  
a market insight briefing for  
the Committee. 

Remuneration accountability framework

In determining remuneration outcomes for KMP Senior Executives, the Board considers not only the financial and individual 
performance outcomes, but also the way in which that performance was delivered using an accountability framework. This framework: 

 — describes the types of incidents that need to be identified and reported (e.g. safety, financial misstatements, breaches of codes  

of conduct, poor audit findings, and breaches of post-employment restraints);

 — explicitly outlines the consequences of different performance outcomes (e.g. no remuneration review, reduced STIP outcomes,  

or applying malus to unvested STIP shares or LTIP awards);

 — considers each event on a case-by-case basis, recording precedents, ensuring consistency and reflecting both negative and 

positive outcomes;

 — typically reserves that decisions will be made at year end regarding the totality of the individual’s contribution throughout the year; 

 — notes that in serious cases consequences may extend beyond the consideration of remuneration alone (e.g. an individual may be 

required to leave Coca-Cola Amatil Limited).

The accountability framework is considered each year when assessing KMP Senior Executive performance. The Group Managing 
Director reviews and makes recommendations on the application of the framework for their direct reports. These recommendations  
are then considered and approved by the People Committee. For the Group Managing Director, the People Committee considers the 
application of the accountability framework and makes recommendations to the Board for approval. 

Preventing unintended consequences 
The reward framework has design elements that protect against the risk of unintended and unjustifiable outcomes. These include:

 — measuring incentive plans across a suite of relevant performance measures, and not placing too much emphasis on one specific 

aspect of performance;

 — assessing performance through the types of objectives set, the deferred component of the STIP and the time periods over which 

performance is measured: one year for the STIP, and three years for the LTIP;

 — the STIP deferred shares and LTIP awards, which continue in the plan beyond cessation of employment (subject to the reason  

for ceasing employment) and ensure a focus on long-term shareholder value creation;

 — a minimum shareholding requirement for KMP Senior Executives to ensure their incentives align with Shareholder interests;

 — the Board’s ability to adjust STIP outcomes and reduce unvested STIP deferred shares, as well as unvested LTIP awards.  

These provisions are drafted broadly to provide the Board scope to exercise this authority as required.

7	 NON-EXECUTIVE	DIRECTOR	ARRANGEMENTS
FEE POLICY AND MINIMUM SHAREHOLDING REQUIREMENT

The remuneration of Non-Executive Directors comprises Directors’ fees (Board plus Board Committee fees) and superannuation 
contributions. No element of remuneration is performance related.

Based on market information received from external remuneration consultants (via the People Committee), Directors’ fees are set and 
approved by the Board. Setting the fees considers the size and complexity of the Group’s operations, the Directors’ associated 
workload and their responsibility for the stewardship of Amatil. 

The only change made to Non-Executive Director fees during 2020 was to reduce the Indonesia Board of Commissioners fee from 
$25,000 to $15,000 in May 2020.

The fees are paid within a maximum director fee limit of $2.8 million per annum, which was approved at the 2016 Annual General 
Meeting. This is a maximum limit and current fees fall below this limit. 

Directors’ fees

The annual Directors’ fees (excluding superannuation contributions) payable to Non-Executive 
Directors for the year ended 31 December 2020 were as follows:

Board

Audit & Finance Committee

Risk & Sustainability Committee

People Committee

Indonesia Board of Commissioners

15,000

No fees are payable in respect of membership of the Related Party Committee or the Nominations 
Committee. The Chairman of the Board does not receive any Committee fees. 

In accordance with Amatil’s constitution and the Scheme Implementation Deed, Amatil 
Independent Non-Executive Directors, Mr Mark Graham Johnson and Ms Penelope Ann Winn, will 
each receive a one-off fee equal to $25,000 plus applicable superannuation for their attendance 
and participation in the work of a sub-committee in relation to the scheme booklet. The relevant 
fees are payable upon the draft scheme booklet being lodged with ASIC regardless of whether the 
Scheme subsequently completes.

Director shareholding 
requirement

Non-Executive Directors are required to hold an amount equivalent to:

 — 50% of the pre-tax Director base fee within three years of appointment.
 — 100% of the pre-tax Director base fee within five years of appointment. 

The requirement does not apply to the Coca-Cola Company nominee directors given the 
significant shareholding held by TCCC, and their role as representatives of the  
Coca-Cola Company. 

From time to time, Non-Executive Directors may be restricted from trading in Coca-Cola Amatil 
Limited shares given their access to confidential or price sensitive insider information which is not 
complete or disclosable under the ASX Listing Rules. This may impact their ability to meet the 
minimum shareholding requirement within the five-year time frame. As a result, this time frame 
may be extended at the Board’s discretion. 

As at 31 December 2020, all Non-Executive Directors were compliant with the minimum 
shareholding requirement. 

In addition to Director fees, Amatil makes superannuation contributions up to the amount required 
by the Superannuation Guarantee legislation. If an exemption applies (such as that introduced by 
the recent changes to Superannuation Guarantee legislation impacting Non-Executive Directors 
on multiple boards), superannuation contributions will instead be made as cash with the  
Director’s fees. 

Superannuation

Other benefits

Non-Executive Directors can access the staff sampling program that provides employees with a 
limited amount of Company products for personal consumption.

Benefits are:
– non-monetary benefits: product allowance, insurance premiums (Life, Total and Permanent Disablement and Temporary Salary Continuance) 

through the Coca-Cola Amatil Superannuation Plan and annual health check; and

– other benefits: cash benefits such as car allowance (Mr Litchfield), club membership (Mr Litchfield), expatriate benefits (Mr Gunduz) and 

recreation allowance (Mr Gunduz). 

Represents the estimated fair value of Coca-Cola Amatil Limited shares offered in the LTIP. For the absolute TSR and relative TSR components it is 
calculated by multiplying the maximum number of rights by the fair value of the shares at grant date and amortised over the performance period. 
The EPS component is based on the target number of rights that may vest. Where actual EPS results or management estimates indicate that  
EPS components of plans have not vested or will not vest, amortisation ceases, and pre-expensed amounts are reversed.
A one-off equity grant to Mr West vesting on 21 February 2020 was made as a sign-on award to replace a portion of an incentive at his previous 
employer which was forfeited when commencing employment with the Group. Further details are disclosed in our 2019 Annual Report (page 98). 
This represents the reversal of pre-expensed amounts related to LTIP share rights granted to Mr Roberts which lapsed on resignation.

Benefits are:

– non-monetary benefits: product allowance, insurance premiums (Life, Total and Permanent Disablement and Temporary Salary Continuance) 

through the Coca-Cola Amatil Superannuation Plan and annual health check; and

– other benefits: cash benefits such as car allowance (Mr Litchfield), club membership (Mr Litchfield), expatriate benefits (Mr Gunduz) and 

recreation allowance (Mr Gunduz). 

2 

Represents the estimated fair value of Coca-Cola Amatil Limited shares offered in the LTIP. For the absolute TSR and relative TSR components it is 

calculated by multiplying the maximum number of rights by the fair value of the shares at grant date and amortised over the performance period. 

The EPS component is based on the target number of rights that may vest. Where actual EPS results or management estimates indicate that  

EPS components of plans have not vested or will not vest, amortisation ceases, and pre-expensed amounts are reversed.

3 

4 

A one-off equity grant to Mr West vesting on 21 February 2020 was made as a sign-on award to replace a portion of an incentive at his previous 

employer which was forfeited when commencing employment with the Group. Further details are disclosed in our 2019 Annual Report (page 98). 

This represents the reversal of pre-expensed amounts related to LTIP share rights granted to Mr Roberts which lapsed on resignation.

COCA-COLA AMATIL ANNUAL REPORT 2020 
KMP SENIOR EXECUTIVES SHAREHOLDINGS

As noted earlier, to ensure alignment with Shareholders, a minimum shareholding requirement applies. Subject to any share trading 
restrictions that may impact the attainment of these thresholds within the guideline’s time frames, the Group Managing Director is 
required to hold an amount equivalent to 100% of fixed remuneration. Other KMP Senior Executives are required to hold 50% of fixed 
remuneration in Coca-Cola Amatil Limited shares. A five-year time frame is permitted to attain this holding.

The table below shows the movements in shareholdings for KMP Senior Executives during 2020. These include:

 — Purchased and vested shares: either purchased on market or received through a Coca-Cola Amatil Limited share plan and  

no longer subject to any restrictions.

 — STIP shares: purchased as part of a STIP award that have not yet completed their holding period and remain subject to forfeiture 

in specific circumstances.

 — ESP: purchased and matching shares that have not yet completed their holding period and remain subject to forfeiture in specific 
circumstances. The ESP is open to all full and part-time employees of the Group on a voluntary basis with each participant able to 
contribute up to 3% per year of base salary to purchase shares. KMP Senior Executives are restricted to making contributions to 
the ESP only during a trading window and must comply with the Policy on Trading in Coca-Cola Amatil Securities. For every share 
acquired, a matching share is acquired, which under normal circumstances vests to the employee after a period of two years.  
There are no performance conditions.

No grants will vest if the performance conditions are not satisfied; hence, the minimum value of the grants yet to vest is nil. The maximum value  
has been estimated based on the fair value per grant at the maximum achievement of the vesting scale less amounts already expensed at  
31 December 2020.

The table below provides the value1 of share rights granted, vested or lapsed during the year:

Fair values vary due to differing grant and vesting dates.
The rewards received under the LTIP are dependent on long-term performance; the 2019 and 2020 grants are still to be tested. The percentage  
of grants that will vest will be determined based upon the Group’s performance at the end of each performance period.

COCA-COLA AMATIL ANNUAL REPORT 2020NOTES TO THE 
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

Coca-Cola Amatil Limited and its subsidiaries

OVERVIEW

Coca-Cola Amatil Limited (also referred to as Company) is a for-profit company limited by shares that is incorporated and domiciled 
in Australia, whose shares are publicly traded on the Australian Securities Exchange. The Company’s registered office is located at 
Level 13, 40 Mount Street, North Sydney, NSW 2060. Coca-Cola Amatil Limited does not have a parent entity. The nature of the 
operations and principal activities of Coca-Cola Amatil Limited and its subsidiaries together (referred to as Group, we or our) are 
described in Note 1 Segment Reporting. This Financial Report was authorised for issue in accordance with a resolution of the 
Coca-Cola Amatil Limited Board of Directors on 18 February 2021.

BASIS OF PREPARATION
This general purpose financial report:

— 

— 

— 

— 

 is prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards, other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting 
Standards Board (AASB) and the Corporations Act 2001;

 has been prepared on the basis of historical cost, except for certain financial assets and liabilities which have been measured at 
fair value (Note 16);

complies with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board;

is presented in Australian Dollars;

—  presents reclassified comparative information where necessary to conform to changes in presentation in the current period; and

— 

 presents all values as rounded to the nearest hundred thousand dollars under ASIC Corporations (Rounding in Financial/Directors' 
Reports) Instrument 2016/191, unless stated otherwise.

NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS FOR 2020

AASB 2019-3 AMENDMENTS TO AUSTRALIAN ACCOUNTING STANDARDS – INTEREST RATE BENCHMARK REFORM
The Group has adopted AASB 2019-3 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Interest Rate Benchmark Reform. This 
standard applies to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2020 and the financial impact of the application of this 
standard is not material to the period ended 31 December 2020 financial statements.

This amendment provides temporary relief from applying specific hedge accounting requirements to hedge relationships directly 
affected by the Inter-bank offered rates (IBORs) reform. This relief has the effect that IBOR reform should not generally cause hedge 
accounting to terminate.

Group’s borrowing and hedging derivative portfolio is primarily set at fixed interest rates and is exposed to Bank Bill Swap benchmark 
rates. There are presently no hedge relationships that are linked to IBOR. The extent of the risk exposure for the Group would be the 
indirect impact of mark-to-market valuations on its debt related derivatives portfolio. The Group has commenced a project to 
incorporate new interest rate benchmark curves on its valuation models.

USE OF ESTIMATES
In applying the Group’s accounting policies, management has made a number of estimates and assumptions concerning the future. 
The key estimates and assumptions that are material to the financial statements relate to the following areas:

—  estimation of useful lives of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets, refer to Notes 7 and 9;

— 

— 

impairment testing of goodwill and indefinite life intangible assets, refer to Note 10;

income tax, refer to Note 11; and

—  accruals for rebates and promotional allowances, refer to Note 6c.

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

SUBSIDIARIES

The consolidated financial statements of the Group comprise those of the parent entity, Coca-Cola Amatil Limited, and its subsidiaries. 
The Group controls an entity when it has power over the entity, is exposed to, and has the rights to, variable returns from its 
involvement with that entity and has the ability to affect those returns. 

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, the effects of all intra-group transactions, balances and unrealised gains and losses 
on transactions between entities in the Group have been eliminated. The financial statements of subsidiaries have been prepared for 
the same reporting period as that of the parent entity, using consistent accounting policies. Adjustments are made to bring into line any 
dissimilar accounting policies that may exist.

NON-CONTROLLING INTERESTS (NCIs)

The Group measures NCIs at their proportionate share of the subsidiary’s identifiable net assets, results for the year and movements 
in reserves. Changes in the Group’s ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in a loss of control are accounted for in equity 
as transactions with shareholders.

Coca-Cola Amatil Limited and its subsidiaries

OVERVIEW (CONTINUED)
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION
Both the functional and presentation currency of Coca-Cola Amatil Limited and its Australian subsidiaries is the Australian Dollar. 
Each entity in the Group determines its own functional currency, reflecting the currency of the primary economic environment in which 
it operates.

Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded in the functional currency by applying the exchange rate ruling at the date of 
the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rate of exchange ruling at 
the reporting date. Exchange rate gains or losses arising from the application of these procedures are taken to the income statement.

Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rate as at the 
date of the initial transaction. Non-monetary items measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rate 
at the date when the fair value was determined.

The assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries are translated into Australian Dollars by applying the rate ruling at balance date and 
revenue and expense items are translated at the average rate calculated for the period. Transactions in equity are translated by applying 
the rate ruling on the date of the transaction with no subsequent revaluation. The exchange differences arising from translation of the 
financial statements of foreign subsidiaries at these various exchange rates, are recognised in other comprehensive income within the 
foreign currency translation reserve. When a foreign operation is sold, the associated exchange differences are reclassified to the 
income statement as part of the gain or loss on sale.

I  OUR RESULTS
1  SEGMENT REPORTING
We operate in a number of segments, based on results that are reported to the Group Managing Director. The Australia, Pacific 
(previously New Zealand & Fiji), and Indonesia & Papua New Guinea segments manufacture, distribute, market and sell sparkling 
beverages, other non-alcohol beverages, alcohol and coffee products. The Corporate & Services segment includes other non-
individually reportable businesses and comprises of the corporate office function for the Group, management of key property assets 
of Australia and New Zealand and the provision of certain support services to the Group and third-party customer businesses. The 
majority of the Group’s revenues are recognised at the point in time at which products are delivered to the customer.

Starting from 1 January 2020 and reflecting a decision to manage all beverage categories in line with geographic responsibilities, the 
former Alcohol & Coffee segment has been integrated into each of our geographic segments – Australia, Pacific and Indonesia & Papua 
New Guinea. Accordingly, 2019 comparative segment information has been re-presented in accordance with the amended reporting 
basis for the new segments outlined above.

The Group’s financial statements are affected by seasonality depending on the timing of certain festivities in the different countries 
within which the Group operates. Typically, revenue, earnings and operating cash flows of Australian and New Zealand-based 
operations are greater in the second half of the financial year due to the Christmas holiday trading period, which can lead to associated 
effects on working capital components. Similarly, the Ramadan period positively impacts the timing of the Indonesian business 
financial performance within the financial year.

Segment revenue is evaluated with reference to trading revenue. Segment results are evaluated on an earnings before interest, tax and 
non-trading items basis. Segment net assets include Net assets – Operating and Investing amounts (which excludes net debt). Net debt 
comprises cash assets, other financial assets at amortised cost, interest bearing receivables, borrowings, debt related derivative assets 
and liabilities and other financial and lease liabilities. The Group manages its net debt, net finance costs and income taxes on a Group 
basis, and these measures are therefore not reported internally at a segment level. Inter segment transactions are conducted on normal 
commercial terms and conditions.

Includes equipment servicing and contract beverage manufacturing income.

The Group earned 36.5% (2019: 33.7%) of its trading revenue from continuing operations from its top three customers mainly in 
Australia, being Woolworths Limited, Coles Group Limited and Metcash Limited. 

RECOGNITION AND MEASUREMENT

Sale of products
The Group sells a range of beverage products to wholesale, retail and consumer customers. A sale is recognised when control of the 
product has transferred, being when the product is delivered to the customer and there is no unfulfilled obligation that could affect the 
customer’s acceptance of the products. Delivery occurs when the product has been shipped to the location specified by the customer 
and the customer accepts the product in accordance with agreed arrangements.

Revenue from sales is recognised based on the contract agreed between the customer and the Group. Contracts do not commit 
customers to purchasing anything nor commit the Group to deliver the same but set out the terms and conditions that apply between 
the parties at the time an order is placed by a customer and accepted by the Group. The terms and conditions cover a range of 
conditions including pricing, settlement of liabilities, return policies, provision and servicing of equipment and any other negotiated 
performance obligations. 

No element of financing is present in the pricing arrangement. Settlement terms range from cash-on-delivery to credit terms ranging 
from 7 to 90 days. Terms reflect negotiations with customers, policies, procedures and controls held by each business as it relates to 
customer credit risk.

For customers who purchase on credit, a receivable is recognised when the products are delivered as this is the point in time that the 
consideration is unconditional because only the passage of time is required before the payment is due. 

Rental of equipment and service fees
The Group earns revenue from renting equipment that is used to dispense certain of its beverage products purchased by the customer. 
Rental agreements generally range from 12 to 24 months in duration and revenue is recognised on a straight-line basis over the term. 
Rental paid in advance is not recognised as revenue until the period the payment relates to has passed.

Service fee revenue mainly arises from container recycling services provided to manufacturers and distributors of eligible containers in 
certain Australian jurisdictions. Revenue is based on the volume of containers processed and is recognised as the service is delivered.

Financing components
As the Group does not have any contracts where the period between the transfer of the promised product or services to the customer 
and payment by the customer exceeds one year, it does not adjust any of the transaction prices for the time value of money.

Comprises $92.6 million of production and cold drink equipment, $49.4 million of building assets, $9.5 million of software development assets, 
$17.1 million of goodwill and $7.3 million of investments into bottlers’ agreements. 
Comprises $12.1 million relating to our cash generating units (CGU) level impairment testing (refer to Note 10 for further details); and $4.3 million 
for brand assets with a definite life.

The amounts in 2020 have primarily arisen due to:

— 

 outcome of the CGU level impairment testing undertaken at the half year (refer to Note 10 for further details) and impairment 
of equity accounted investments, reflecting a deterioration in performance mainly due to the COVID-19 environment;

—  Fighting Fit program in H2 resulting in redundancies, asset impairments/write-offs and related expenses;

— 

— 

reversal of impairment of investment in associate and profit on sale; 

costs incurred in relation to the potential Coca-Cola European Partners (CCEP) transaction (included in other net expenses); and

—  other one-off expenses including M&A activities.

The prior year amounts primarily related to asset and investment impairments and cost incurred on M&A activities, partially offset by 
profit on sale of remaining lots at Thebarton.

RECOGNITION AND MEASUREMENT

Employee related costs
Employee related costs include wages and salaries, annual leave, sick leave, incentives, compensated absences and other benefits, 
which are charged against profit in their respective expense categories when services are provided by, or benefits vest with, the 
employee. The Group’s contributions made to defined contribution superannuation plans are recognised as an expense when they 
fall due.

For accounting policies on defined benefit superannuation plans, provision for employee benefits and employee ownership plans, 
refer to Notes 12b, 12c and 18 respectively.

Finance costs
Finance costs mainly comprise interest costs on borrowings, lease and other financial liabilities and the time value amounts under 
the defined benefit superannuation plans.

Interest costs are recorded as expenses in the period in which they are incurred, except where they are included in the costs of 
qualifying assets.

RECOGNITION AND MEASUREMENT

Trade and other receivables are recognised at the face value of amounts due less an allowance for doubtful receivables. Doubtful 
receivables are determined using an expected credit loss approach whereby trade and other receivables that share the same or similar 
credit risk characteristics and debt ageing are grouped and then assessed for collectability as a whole.

Refer to Note 15b) ii) on credit risk of trade and other receivables.

For details of related party receivables included in trade and other receivables, refer to Note 17.

Cost is determined on the basis of first-in-first-out, average or standard – whichever is the most appropriate in each case. Net 
realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the cost of completion and selling expenses.

Costs of inventories include the transfer from equity of gains or losses on qualifying cash flow hedges relating to inventory purchases.

allowances and amounts due for supplies and services received but not invoiced at the reporting date.

For details of related party payables included in trade and other payables, refer to Note 17.

KEY ESTIMATES

The accruals for rebates and promotional allowances that are raised are based on estimates of a range of factors including 
anticipated consumer purchases and product mix.

II  OUR ASSETS AND LIABILITIES – OPERATING AND INVESTING (CONTINUED)
7  PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT (CONTINUED)

RECOGNITION AND MEASUREMENT

Carrying value and depreciation

Property, plant and equipment assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment. Cost includes the transfer from 
equity of gains or losses from cash flow hedges undertaken for the purchases of property, plant and equipment. Subsequent 
expenditure is capitalised when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the expenditure will flow to the Group. 
Property, plant and equipment assets, other than land, are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the 
assets and are tested for impairment when there is any indication of impairment. Useful life details of these assets were as follows:

Buildings and leasehold improvements

Plant and equipment

20 to 50 years

2 to 25 years

An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon its disposal. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition (calculated by 
deducting the carrying amount and costs of disposal from proceeds) is included in the income statement in that financial year.

Impairment

Property, plant and equipment are tested for impairment in accordance with the policy for impairment testing disclosed in Note 10. 
An impairment expense is recognised when the carrying amount of property, plant and equipment exceeds its recoverable amount, 
which is defined as the greater of an asset’s fair value less costs to sell, or value in use.

KEY ESTIMATES 

Useful lives of assets are generally estimated based on historical experience. However, the condition and future utilisation 
of assets are reviewed annually and considered against their remaining useful life with adjustments made when deemed 
necessary.

Capital expenditure commitments

provided for, payable within one year

8  LEASES
For a qualifying lease, the Group recognises a right of use asset and lease liability based on the present value of future lease payments 
which excludes payments of a variable nature. The nature and structure of our lease portfolio are such that the interest rates implicit 
in the leases are not readily determinable. The Group therefore uses Incremental Borrowing Rates (IBRs) to discount the future value 
of lease payments. The IBR denotes the rate of interest that a lessee would have to pay to borrow over a similar term, with a similar 
security, the funds necessary to purchase an asset of a similar value to the right of use asset in a similar economic environment. 

The determination of the lease term is a key judgement exercised by management on a recurring basis. In determining the lease term, 
management considers all facts and circumstances that create an economic incentive to exercise an extension option, or not to 
exercise a termination option. 

Extension options (or periods after termination options) are only included in the lease term if the lease is reasonably certain to be 
extended (or not terminated).

8a  RIGHT OF USE ASSETS
The Group enters non-cancellable leases on properties, motor vehicles, forklifts and other items of plant and equipment. Lease terms 
vary in length and generally, when approaching expiry, are either extended at the option of the Group or are renegotiated. Our leases 
mainly relate to properties in Australia and New Zealand.

8b  SHORT-TERM, LOW-VALUE AND VARIABLE LEASES
The Group has elected to apply the recognition exemption to short-term and low-value leases. Short-term leases are those with terms 
equal to or less than 12 months and low asset value leases include portable electronic devices and office equipment. Payments of these 
leases are recognised on straight-line basis over the lease term. The amounts recognised in EBIT for these leases are:

Short-term leases
This amount mainly includes the payments in relation to hire of motor vehicles and forklifts for periods equal to or less than 12 months.

Variable leases
This amount mainly consists of the variable component of lease payments made for the product transportation services, whereby these 
components are dependent on various factors such as number of cases of product delivered, number of trips and pallets. Generally, the 
majority of these contracts are structured in a manner such that payments are dependent or linked to these factors; hence, making 
these leases mainly variable in nature.

The total cash outflow for leases (including short-term, low-value and variable leases) was $250.7 million (2019: $261.8 million).

COCA-COLA AMATIL ANNUAL REPORT 2020RECOGNITION AND MEASUREMENT

Indefinite lives

Indefinite life intangible assets, except for goodwill, are recognised initially at the date of acquisition at their fair value which is deemed 
to be cost.

Investments in bottlers’ agreements (IBAs)
We have a number of bottling agreements with The Coca-Cola Company (TCCC) which provide Coca-Cola Amatil Limited with the 
exclusive rights to prepare, package, distribute and sell TCCC branded products in each of the six countries in which Coca-Cola Amatil 
Limited operates.

The agreements are for mainly 10-year terms and reflect the long and ongoing relationship between the Group and TCCC. No 
consideration is payable upon renewal or extension of the agreements.

In assessing the useful life of the agreements, consideration is given to the Group’s history of dealings with TCCC since 1939, their 
established international practices and equity interests in the Group, participation of nominees of TCCC on Coca-Cola Amatil Limited’s 
Board of Directors and the ongoing profitability of TCCC brands. Accordingly, no factor can be identified that would result in the 
agreements not being renewed or extended and therefore the agreements have been assessed as having indefinite useful lives, which 
require annual impairment testing.

Goodwill
Goodwill is the excess of the cost of a business acquisition over the fair value of net assets acquired. Goodwill is not amortised but is 
tested annually for impairment. 

Definite lives
Definite life intangible assets are recognised at cost. Assets acquired in a business acquisition are recognised at the date of acquisition 
at fair value, which is deemed to be cost. Following initial recognition, intangible assets are amortised on a straight-line basis over their 
useful lives and tested for impairment when there is any indication of impairment. Useful life details for these assets are as follows:

Brand names and trademarks

Software development and other assets

40 to 50 years

3 to 14 years

Any gain or loss arising on derecognition (calculated by deducting the carrying amount and costs of disposal from proceeds) is included 
in the income statement in that financial year.

Impairment
Intangible assets are tested for impairment in accordance with the policy for impairment testing assets disclosed in Note 10. In the case 
of definite life intangible assets where an impairment indicator exists, an impairment loss is recognised when the carrying amount of 
the assets exceeds its recoverable amount, which is defined as the greater of an asset’s fair value less costs to sell, or value in use.

KEY ESTIMATES 

Useful lives of assets are generally estimated based on historical experience. However, the condition and future utilisation 
of assets are reviewed annually and considered against their remaining useful life with adjustments made when deemed 
necessary.

RECOGNITION AND MEASUREMENT

At each reporting date, we assess whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. Where an indicator of impairment 
exists, we make a formal estimate of the recoverable amount. An impairment charge will be recognised in the income statement for the 
amount by which the carrying amount of an asset exceeds the recoverable amount, which is defined as the greater of an asset’s fair 
value less costs to sell, or value in use. 

Impairment charges for cash generating units (CGUs) are allocated to reduce the carrying amounts firstly for goodwill, with the 
remainder then pro rata allocated to the other assets of the CGU, to the extent this amount does not cause individual assets being 
reduced below their recoverable amounts (where this can be determined).

Non-financial assets, other than goodwill, that suffered an impairment in prior periods are reviewed for possible reversal of the 
impairment at each reporting date.

A post-impairment summary of intangible assets deemed to have indefinite lives is presented below:

COCA-COLA AMATIL ANNUAL REPORT 2020KEY ESTIMATES 

Methodology
Management uses the ‘value-in-use’ approach to determine the recoverable amount of each CGU. Value-in-use is based on the 
net present value of forecast cash flows for a 5-year period plus a terminal value estimation using appropriate perpetuity growth 
rates. 

The 5-year cash flows forecast is based on:

— 

 management's latest view of 2020-2022 outcomes, risk adjusted to reflect uncertainty created by COVID-19 and taking 
into account historical trends and the level of accuracy of previous forecasts;

—  an assessment of sustainable growth for years 4 and 5 post the recovery from the impact of COVID-19; and

—  a terminal growth rate based on an assessment of inflation and perpetual growth using market and economic data.

The forecasts also take into consideration the following key inputs:

— 

 volumes – expected rate of recovery from the COVID-19 crisis with reference to externally sourced non-alcohol ready to 
drink market growth and share data, and gross domestic product growth;

—  pricing – long-term inflation rates, level of market competitiveness and trends;

—  EBIT margin – historic and forecast trends, and management view of long-term sustainable margin;

— 

capital expenditure – percentage of forecast sales taking into account capacity requirements and age of assets; and

—  working capital movement – percentage of sales adjusted for trends.

Discount rates
Discount rates applied to our forecast cash flows represent the weighted average cost of capital for the Group in relation to 
each CGU, risk adjusted where applicable. The local discount rates used compared to December 2019 are provided in the table 
below: 

Australia

New Zealand

Fiji

Indonesia

Papua New Guinea

Terminal growth rates
The terminal growth rates applied range from 2.0% to 4.5% per annum (2019: 2.0% to 5.0%).

10  CGUs IMPAIRMENT TESTING (CONTINUED)

Assessment
In the light of the adverse impact of COVID-19 on trading performance, management has conducted an assessment of the 
recoverable amount using the above methodology for each CGU. The conclusion reached was that for all CGUs, except 
Indonesia and Paradise Beverages, there are no reasonably possible changes in key assumptions used which could cause 
recoverable amount to decline below the carrying amount.

In Indonesia, restrictions imposed, as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, significantly impacted the business during the peak 
festive season and infection rates had yet to peak. This has led to a reduced valuation compared to December 2019 when the 
recoverable amount was estimated to be 5% above the carrying amount. As a result, an impairment charge, before tax, of 
$175.9 million was recognised at the half year, including $92.6 million of production and cold drink equipment, $49.4 million of 
building assets, $9.5 million of software development assets, $17.1 million of goodwill and $7.3 million of IBAs. The valuation has 
been re-assessed as part of the normal year-end assessment process, and it has been determined that there has been no 
material change in the valuation and the headroom is immaterial, therefore, no write-back or further write-down is required. 

Fiji is very dependent on tourism and the closure of the borders has had a significant impact on the Paradise Beverages 
business (which forms part of the Pacific segment). With tourism not expected to return to pre-COVID levels in the near future, 
the assessment at the half year resulted in an impairment charge, before tax, of $12.1 million, including $6.2 million of goodwill, 
$2.1 million of brands and $3.8 million of property, plant and equipment and other assets. The re-assessment at the year-end 
has determined that there has been no material change in the valuation and the headroom is immaterial, therefore no write-
back or further write-down is required.

Significant assumptions used in the impairment testing referred to above are inherently subjective and in times of economic 
uncertainty the degree of subjectivity is higher than it might otherwise be. Accordingly, it should be noted that the risks and 
uncertainties associated with the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and the economic environment could cause the actual 
results to differ materially from management’s projections used in the assessment. This could lead to significant changes in 
the recoverable amount of these CGUs.

Key assumptions and sensitivities
Indonesia
The key assumptions used in the year-end valuation model to determine recoverable amount were:

—  annual volume – assumed to return to the level achieved in 2019 in 2023 and grow by 4.0% p.a. by 2025;

— 

 festive volume – the uplift during the peak festive selling season on a volume per day basis (compared to the period from 
1 January to the commencement of the festive period) in 2019 was ~100%, which reduced to ~30% in 2020 and in the model 
is assumed to recover to 75% in 2021, which is unchanged from the assumption at the half year;

—  pricing – limited price increases are assumed during the COVID-19 recovery period, then improving to 0.8% p.a. by 2025;

—  EBIT margin – assumed to gradually improve, reaching 5.6% in 2025; and

— 

terminal growth rate – assumed to be 4.5% p.a.

The sensitivity of the valuation to movements in these key assumptions is shown in the table below:

Key assumptions

Volume growth – average over the 5-year valuation period

Price growth – average over the 5-year valuation period

EBIT margin – average over the 5-year valuation period

Paradise Beverages
As disclosed at the half year it has been assumed it will take until 2024 before volume returns to the level achieved in 2019 and 
grow at 3.0% p.a. by 2025. Terminal growth is assumed to be 3.0% p.a. If the average volume growth over the 5-year valuation 
period changes by +/- 1% or the terminal growth rate changes by +/- 0.5% the valuation will change by approximately 
$4.5 million. A change in the discount rate by +/- 0.5% will impact the valuation by approximately $6.0 million.

The 2020 amount largely reflects amounts classified as non-trading items in Indonesia, where the current tax rate is 22% whereas the Australian 
statutory tax rate is 30%.
To assist companies during the COVID-19 pandemic, the Indonesian government reduced the company tax rate from 25% to 22% for the 2020 
and 2021 years, with a further reduction to 20% for 2022 onwards. This amount has been classified as a non-trading item.

COCA-COLA AMATIL ANNUAL REPORT 2020RECOGNITION AND MEASUREMENT

Current tax
Current tax asset or liability represents amounts receivable or payable in relation to income taxes attributable to taxable profits of the 
current or prior financial years, less instalments of income tax paid. The tax rates and laws used to compute current taxes are those 
that are enacted or substantially enacted as at the reporting date.

Deferred tax
Deferred tax balances arise when there are temporary differences between accounting carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets 
and liabilities, other than for the following:

— 

— 

 where the difference arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not an acquisition of a 
business and affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss

 where temporary differences relate to investments in subsidiaries to the extent the Group is able to control the timing of the 
reversal of the temporary differences and it is probable that they will not reverse in the foreseeable future.

Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses only if it is probable that future taxable 
amounts will be available to utilise those temporary differences and losses. The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at 
each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realised.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset only when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets and liabilities 
and when the deferred tax balances relate to the same taxation authority.

Australian tax consolidation
Coca-Cola Amatil Limited has a consolidated group for income tax purposes with each of its wholly-owned Australian subsidiaries. 
The entities within the tax consolidated group have entered into a tax funding agreement whereby each subsidiary will compensate 
Coca-Cola Amatil Limited for the amount of tax payable that would be calculated as if the subsidiary was a taxpaying entity.

Coca-Cola Amatil Limited, as the head entity, and the subsidiaries in the tax consolidated group continue to account for their own 
current and deferred tax amounts. The amounts are measured as if each entity in the tax consolidated group continues to be a 
stand-alone taxpayer in its own right. The current tax balances are then transferred to Coca-Cola Amatil Limited via inter-company 
balances. 

Tax reviews
The Group is subject to regular tax reviews across our jurisdictions and interacts with tax authorities on a range of issues as part of the 
ongoing operations of these tax authorities. In Australia, the Australian Taxation Office (ATO) rates the Group as a “key taxpayer” and 
is subject to the ATO’s “Top 1000” assurance program using its justified trust methodology. At present, the Group is subject to ATO 
audits/reviews of income tax. There are also ongoing audits/reviews in Indonesia and Papua New Guinea by their respective tax 
authorities. At present, The Group has not received notification of any material assessments from any tax authority in the jurisdictions 
in which it operates. In addition, The Group has responded to increased government and stakeholder focus by publishing an annual 
Tax Transparency Report in accordance with the terms of the Australian Voluntary Tax Transparency Code.

KEY ESTIMATES

In determining the Group’s deferred tax assets and liabilities, management is required to make an estimate about the availability 
of future taxable profits and cash flows. Changes in circumstances will alter expectations, which may impact the amount of tax 
losses and temporary differences not yet recognised.

The details of unrecognised deductible temporary differences are as follows:

12b DEFINED BENEFIT SUPERANNUATION PLANS
We sponsor a number of superannuation plans that incorporate defined contribution and defined benefit categories. The defined 
benefit plans are the Coca-Cola Amatil Superannuation Plan (CCASP), which is predominantly Australia-based, and the CCBI 
Superannuation Plan (CCBISP), which is Indonesia-based (collectively Plans). The defined benefit category for the CCASP is closed 
to new entrants. The Plans provide benefits for employees or their dependants on retirement, resignation or death. In the majority of 
cases, this takes the form of lump sum payments.

The obligation to contribute to the Plans is covered by a combination of trust deeds, legislation and regulatory requirements. Contributions 
are made at levels necessary to ensure the Plans have sufficient assets to meet their vested benefit obligations. The rate of contribution 
is based on a percentage of employees’ salaries and wages and is regularly reviewed and adjusted based on actuarial advice.

The following sets out details in respect of the defined benefit superannuation plans only:

CCASP’s assets include no amounts relating to any of Coca-Cola Amatil Limited’s own financial instruments, or any property occupied by, or other 
assets used by, Coca-Cola Amatil Limited.
CCBISP has no plan assets. PT Coca-Cola Bottling Indonesia and PT Coca-Cola Distribution Indonesia, in total, accrue CCBISP’s liabilities as 
per the actuarial assessment.

h)  EXPECTED FUTURE CONTRIBUTIONS

Coca-Cola Amatil Limited contributions are agreed between the Plan trustees and Coca-Cola Amatil Limited, following advice from the 
Plan actuary at least every three years (or more frequently if circumstances require).

Vested benefit obligations represent the estimated total amount that the Plans would be required to pay if all defined benefit members 
were to voluntarily leave the Plans on the particular valuation date. However, the liability recognised in the balance sheet is based on 
the projected benefit obligation which represents the present value of employee benefits accrued to date, assuming that employees will 
continue to work and be members of the Plans until their exit. The projected benefit obligation takes into account future increases in an 
employee’s salary and provides a longer-term view of the financial position of the Plans.

110

COCA-COLA AMATIL ANNUAL REPORT 2020i)  MATURITY PROFILE OF DEFINED BENEFIT OBLIGATIONS

The weighted average durations of the defined benefit obligation for CCASP and CCBISP are 7.3 and 7.6 years respectively.

RECOGNITION AND MEASUREMENT

Current and adjusted prior period related service costs are recognised in the income statement as they accrue. Interest is recognised in 
the income statement for implied returns on plan assets (interest income), and for changes in the time value of plan obligations (interest 
expense), using the applicable discount rate. Revaluation adjustments arising from changes in actuarial assumptions, and differences 
between actual and implied returns on plan assets are recognised in other comprehensive income within the actuarial valuation reserve.

RECOGNITION AND MEASUREMENT

Employee benefits provisions
Employee benefits provisions represent liabilities for benefits accumulated (including related on-costs) as a result of employees 
rendering services up to balance date, in relation to annual, sick, long service and other leave, incentives, termination and other 
benefits. These benefits are charged to the income statement when services are provided and to the extent the benefits are expected 
to vest with employees. Employee benefits provisions are measured at remuneration rates expected to be applicable to future payments 
which settle these liabilities and are discounted back to the reporting date using market yields on corporate bonds with maturities 
aligned to the estimated timing of settlement payments. 

Termination benefits included in employee benefits provisions are recognised as an expense when the Group is committed to a formal 
detailed plan to terminate employees before their normal retirement date, and the Group can no longer withdraw the termination offer.

12d DISCONTINUED OPERATION

SALE OF SPC

On 28 June 2019, the sale of the business was completed for a total consideration of $49.6 million, resulting in a $13.8 million after tax 
gain on disposal. The $6.2 million profit after tax for the discontinued operation in the 2019 half year comprised the trading loss of the 
business of $7.6 million and the after tax gain on disposal of $13.8 million. Cash flows associated with the discontinued operation were:

Net operating cash flows

Proceeds from disposal of business

Payments for additions of property, plant and equipment

Net investing cash flows

Net increase in cash and cash equivalents generated by the discontinued operation

III OUR CAPITAL – FINANCING 

HOW THE GROUP MANAGES ITS CAPITAL – FINANCING

We manage our capital to ensure that entities in the Group have continued access to funding to support the business activities and 
strategies of the Group while maximising returns to shareholders through optimising net debt and equity balances.

Our capital is equity plus net debt. Net debt is calculated as the sum of borrowings, debt related derivatives and other financial and 
lease liabilities, less cash assets and other financial assets at amortised cost.

In order to maintain or adjust our capital structure, the Group may undertake certain activities such as adjusting the amount of 
dividends paid to shareholders, return equity to Shareholders, issue new shares or buy back existing shares. The Group continuously 
reviews its capital structure to ensure that:

— 

— 

sufficient finance for the business is maintained at a reasonable cost;

 sufficient funds are available for the business to carry out its investing activities, such as purchasing of property, plant and 
equipment and acquisitions of businesses;

—  distributions to shareholders are within stated dividend policy parameters; and

— 

 where funds are or will be in excess to that required to enact the Group’s business strategies, the return of equity funds to 
Shareholders is considered.

Details of Capital – Financing are as follows:

Ordinary shares entitle the holder to participate in dividends and the proceeds on winding-up of the Company in proportion to the 
number of shares issued. Every ordinary shareholder present at a meeting of the Company, in person or by proxy, is entitled to one vote, 
and upon a poll each ordinary share is entitled to one vote. Ordinary shares have no par value.

13b TREASURY SHARES
This account records purchases of Coca-Cola Amatil Limited ordinary shares to satisfy obligations to provide shares to employees in 
accordance with the requirements of employee ownership plans. At 31 December 2020, these shares have not vested to employees and 
therefore are controlled by the Group. Refer to Notes 13c and 18 for further information on the share-based remuneration reserve and 
employee ownership plans respectively.

COCA-COLA AMATIL ANNUAL REPORT 2020RECOGNITION AND MEASUREMENT

Cash assets comprises cash on hand, cash at banks and short-term deposits with a maturity of one year or less that are repayable to 
the Group on demand and are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. 

Cash at bank earns interest at floating rates based on daily bank deposit rates.

Short-term deposits are made for varying periods, depending on the near-term cash requirements of the Group and earn interest at 
the respective short-term deposit rates.

RESTRICTIONS ON CASH HELD IN PAPUA NEW GUINEA 

As at 31 December 2020, Coca-Cola Amatil’s Papua New Guinea business had local currency (Kina) denominated cash assets and 
funds in government bonds of $129.1 million (PGK 344.4 million) (2019: $213.9 million (PGK 508.2 million)). Presently, there are Papua 
New Guinean government-imposed currency controls which impact the extent to which the cash held in Papua New Guinea can be 
converted into foreign currency and remitted for use elsewhere in the Group.

derivatives – debt related; refer to Note 14d.

116

COCA-COLA AMATIL ANNUAL REPORT 2020RECOGNITION AND MEASUREMENT

Borrowings are initially recognised at fair value at settlement date and subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest 
method, net of associated transaction costs. Borrowings are derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged, 
cancelled or expired.

14c OTHER FINANCIAL ASSETS/LIABILITIES

COLLATERAL

The Group as part of its capital and risk management strategy, uses financial instruments to hedge the Group’s exposure to adverse 
fluctuations in market risks. The hedges are marked-to-market, to determine fair value, at regular intervals to test for hedge 
effectiveness between the underlying hedged item and the hedging instrument. 

Due to changes in the fair value of the hedge contracts and to minimise the impact of credit default, the Group received a net 
$50.9 million as cash collateral pledged from external counterparties (2019: $90.3 million (USD 63.0 million)). Coca-Cola Amatil Limited 
holds these collaterals under agreements to provide protection against credit risk exposure by its counterparties. As at 31 December 
2020, if pledged collaterals were included in the master netting arrangements on the derivative portfolio, net derivative liabilities would 
increase to $101.5 million (2019: net impact would reduce the net derivative assets to $18.3 million net derivative liabilities).

RECOGNITION AND MEASUREMENT

Cash collaterals received or paid by the Group is recognised at fair value at settlement date in the statement of cash flows. All other 
financial assets are recognised on trade date. A financial asset or liability is derecognised as and when the rights to receive or 
obligation to pay cash flows from the asset or liability have expired or the Group has transferred its rights to receive, or obligation 
to pay cash flows.

The underlying hedged item represents bonds swapped into local currency. Foreign currency and interest related movements in these bonds 
and movements in related hedging derivatives are offset within the income statement. The net effect results in no impact on net debt other than 
any hedge ineffectiveness that may arise from credit valuation adjustments and currency basis that does not form a part of the hedge relationship. 
The accumulated change in the fair value of the hedged bonds is equal to the carrying amount of the derivative which is $63.8 million (2019: 
$66.3 million). The carrying value of the hedged bonds is $362.6 million (2019: $374.7 million).
Includes currency basis adjustment.
Refer to footnote 1, with movements being recognised in other comprehensive income rather than the income statement.

COCA-COLA AMATIL ANNUAL REPORT 2020RECOGNITION AND MEASUREMENT

Derivative financial instruments are used to manage exposures to certain financial risks and are recognised at fair value. On 
subsequent revaluation, for example, at trade date, derivatives are carried as assets when their fair value has increased and as liabilities 
when their fair value has decreased. 

The effectiveness of the hedging relationship is tested at inception and at regular intervals thereafter by means of cumulative dollar 
offset effectiveness calculations. The primary objective is to determine if changes to the fair value of the hedged item and the derivative 
are highly correlated and thus support the assertion that there will be a high degree of offset in fair value movements achieved by 
the hedge.

For all hedges, amounts recognised in equity are transferred to the functional cost areas appropriate to the hedged item, as and when 
the hedged item is consumed, except for basis risk adjustments.

Any gain or loss is reclassified to the income statement when the Group exercises, terminates, or revokes designation of the hedge 
relationship. Any ineffectiveness that may arise from credit valuation adjustments is recognised in the income statement as finance costs.

The Group designates its derivatives as hedges for either:

— 

— 

the fair values of certain liabilities (fair value hedges); or

the cash flows associated with assets and liabilities and highly probable forecast transactions (cash flow hedges).

Fair value hedges are used to mitigate the exposure that arises from changes in the fair value of a hedged item such that changes in 
the fair value of the hedged item are offset against the changes in the value of the hedging instrument. Where there is a gain or loss 
from remeasuring the fair value of the derivative, they are recognised within net finance costs in the income statement.

Cash flow hedges are used to hedge future cash flows or a probable transaction that could affect the income statement. Any gain or 
loss on effective portions of the hedging instrument is recognised directly in equity, while any gain or loss on ineffective portions is 
recognised in the income statement within net finance costs. If the forecast transaction is revoked or no longer expected to occur, 
amounts previously recognised in equity are transferred to the income statement over the remaining life of the underlying exposure. 

The Group placed certain amounts of foreign currency on deposit that were used to hedge highly probable forecast purchases of 
capital expenditure items and raw materials. Movements in the translation of these deposits are recognised within other comprehensive 
income and recycled into the income statement for raw materials or recognised against the asset when the deposits are utilised.

For reporting purposes, the Group categorises its hedges as either debt related or non-debt related.

Debt related
Debt related derivatives apply solely to hedging of the foreign currency principal amounts and fair values of borrowings. During the 
financial year, the Group held cross currency swaps to mitigate exposures to changes in the fair value of a portion of the Group’s foreign 
currency denominated debt from fluctuations in foreign currency and interest rates. The changes in fair values of the hedged debt 
resulting from movements in exchange rates and interest rates are offset against the changes in the values of the cross currency swaps. 
The objective of this hedging is to convert foreign currency borrowings to local currency borrowings at inception. No significant portion 
of the change in the fair value of the cross currency swap is expected to be ineffective as the amount of the cross currency swap is the 
same as that of the underlying debt and all cash flow and reset dates coincide between the borrowing and the swaps.

Non-debt related
Non-debt derivatives relate to all financial instruments other than those that are debt related, being foreign currency, commodity and 
interest rate derivatives (as these do not impact the calculation of net debt). These hedges comprise fair value and cash flow hedges.

Refer to Note 15 for further information on the Group’s financial risk management process.

Presentation, offsetting and netting arrangements
The Group presents derivative assets and liabilities on a gross basis. Certain derivative assets and liabilities are subject to enforceable 
master netting arrangements with individual counterparties if a default event occurs. If these netting arrangements were to be 
applied to the derivative portfolio as at 31 December 2020, derivative assets and liabilities would each reduce by $17.3 million 
(2019: $19.1 million).

IV OUR RISK MANAGEMENT
15  FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

HOW THE GROUP MANAGES FINANCIAL RISK

Our financial risk management activities are carried out by the Group’s Treasury function, which is governed by a Board approved 
Treasury Policy which strictly prohibits any speculative trading. The Group’s risk management activities seek to reduce the volatility of 
financial performance, which assists in the delivery of the Group’s financial targets. This is achieved through a process of identifying, 
recording and communicating financial exposures and risks within the Group upon which risk management strategies are applied using 
derivatives and hedge accounting practices. Refer to Note 14d for further information on the recognition and measurement of derivatives.

The Group’s financial assets and liabilities originate from, and are used for, operating and investing activities which generate financial assets 
and liabilities including cash, trade and other receivables and trade and other payables, and for financing activities, which are used to invest 
surplus funds and to raise funds for the Group’s operations and take the form of cash, term deposits, bonds, bank loans and bank overdrafts.

Risk management
Financial assets and liabilities, being primarily derivative or hedging contracts, are used to manage financial risks that arise from the 
abovementioned activities. These risks are summarised and described further, in the following sections:

a)  market risks relating to:

foreign currencies
i) 
ii) 
interest rates
iii)  commodity prices

b)  other financial risks relating to:

liquidity

ii)  credit
iii)  foreign currency translation.

Sensitivity – analyses
The below sensitivity analyses illustrate possible outcomes from the Group’s approach to financial risk management in relation to 
market risks. The analyses show the effect on profit and other comprehensive income for the year if market rates had been 10% higher 
or lower with all other variables held constant, taking into account existing financial asset and liability exposures and related hedges. A 
sensitivity of 10% has been selected as this is considered reasonable given the current level of market prices, the volatility observed on 
a historical basis and market expectations for future movements.

10% refers to applying a multiplication factor (rather than addition) to the underlying interest rate.
The table does not show the sensitivity to the Group’s total underlying exposures or the impact of changes in volumes that may arise from an 
increase or decrease in commodity prices.

As shown in the table above, a movement in market rates by 10% would have no material impact on profit for the year, reflecting 
the Group’s approach to hedging as described in Note 14d. Volatility does arise in other comprehensive income mainly due to the 
remeasurement of derivatives to fair value as at the reporting date.

The following sub-section provides additional detail for each market risk.

120

COCA-COLA AMATIL ANNUAL REPORT 2020 
 
 
 
 
 
Foreign currency risk

i) 
Foreign currency risk refers to the risk that the cash flows arising from a financial commitment or recognised asset or liability, will 
fluctuate due to changes in foreign currency rates. The Group’s foreign currency risk arises primarily from:

— 

— 

— 

 firm commitments and/or highly probable forecast transactions for receipts and payments settled in foreign currencies and prices 
dependent on foreign currencies respectively;

 cash, term deposits and borrowings denominated in foreign currency; and

 translation of the financial statements of Coca-Cola Amatil Limited’s foreign subsidiaries, refer to Note 15b) iii).

The Group’s risk management policy for foreign exchange allows hedging of forecast cost of goods sold related transactions for up 
to four years before requiring executive management approval. Foreign currency denominated capital expenditure is generally hedged 
upon the making of firm commitments. The policy prescribes a range of minimum and maximum hedging parameters linked to actual 
and forecast transactions involving material foreign currency exposures which are progressively increased to a range of 35% to 100% 
in the current year.

The Group’s material foreign currency transactions (relative to each subsidiary’s functional currency) are mainly conducted in the 
following currencies:

— 

 Australian Dollars (AUD);

—  United States Dollars (USD) – primarily for commodity purchasing, borrowings and capital expenditure;

—  New Zealand Dollars (NZD);

— 

Japanese Yen (JPY) – primarily for borrowings;

—  Euros (EUR) – primarily for capital expenditure; and

—  Norwegian Krone (NOK) – primarily for borrowings.

At the reporting date, the Group had exposure to foreign currency risk on the following financial assets and liabilities (due to the items being 
denominated in currencies other than the functional currencies) and mitigated that risk with the hedges presented in the following table:

a)  MARKET RISKS (CONTINUED)

Interest rate risk

ii) 
Interest bearing financial assets and liabilities which expose the Group to interest rate risk are predominantly cash assets, borrowings, 
held to maturity investments and other financial and lease liabilities.

The Group’s risk management policy for interest rate risk seeks to minimise the effects of interest rate movements on its financial asset 
and liability portfolio through management of the exposures. The policy prescribes that the average maturity of the hedging portfolio 
must be between one and five years. It is usual practice for the next 12 months’ floating rate exposures to be largely fixed up to a 
maximum of 100% of the forecast exposure.

The Group primarily enters interest rate swap and cross currency swap agreements to manage these risks. 

At the reporting date, the Group had the following mix of financial assets and liabilities bearing interest and hedges to mitigate interest 
rate risk:

COCA-COLA AMATIL ANNUAL REPORT 2020iii)  Commodity price risk
Commodity price risk is the risk arising from volatility in commodity prices in relation to raw materials (mainly raw sugar, aluminium 
ingot, PET resin and coffee) used in the business.

The Group’s risk management policy for commodity price risk allows hedging of forecast transactions for up to four years before 
requiring executive management approval. The policy prescribes a range of minimum and maximum hedging levels linked to actual and 
forecast transactions involving strategic commodity exposures which are progressively increased to a range of 70% to 100% in the 
current year.

The Group primarily enters futures and swap contracts to hedge commodity price risk, with the objective of obtaining lower raw material 
prices and a more stable and predictable commodity price outcome. Futures contracts are mainly used to hedge the primary exposures, 
being aluminium ingot, raw sugar and resin, which are priced on the London Metal Exchange, Intercontinental Exchange and the 
Independent Chemical Information Services respectively. These exposures are designated to be the risk component which are hedged 
with futures contracts. These together form a part of the hedge relationship and are designed to be highly effective. Costs associated 
with rolling of aluminium cans, refining of raw sugar and any other transaction costs represent other risk components which do not form 
part of the hedge relationship but are recognised within cost of goods sold in the income statement.

The Group had exposure to commodity price risk on the following annual usage quantities and mitigated that risk with the hedges 
presented in the following table:

b)  OTHER FINANCIAL RISKS

Liquidity risk

i) 
Liquidity risk is the risk there will be insufficient funds available to meet the Group’s financial commitments as and when they fall due, 
and the risk of unforeseen events which may curtail cash inflows. To help reduce liquidity risk, the Group:

—  has a liquidity policy which targets a minimum level of committed facilities relative to net debt;

—  has readily accessible funding arrangements in place;

—  generally utilises financial assets and liabilities that are tradeable in liquid markets; and

— 

staggers maturities of financial assets and liabilities.

Liquidity risk is measured by using cash flow forecasts and comparing projected debt levels against total committed facilities. The 
contractual cash flows and expected timings of the Group’s financial liabilities are shown in the table below. The contractual amounts 
represent the net future undiscounted principal and interest cash flows and therefore may not equal to the carrying amounts to the 
financial statements.

The available undrawn committed bank loan facilities are sufficient to fund the repayment of all current borrowings of $335.6 million 
as at 31 December 2020.

ii)  Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk that a contracting entity will not fulfil its obligations under the terms of a financial instrument and will cause the 
Group to make a financial loss. The Group has exposure to credit risk on all financial assets included in the Group’s balance sheet. 
To help manage this risk, the Group:

—  has a policy for establishing credit limits for the entities it deals with; and

—  may require collateral.

124

COCA-COLA AMATIL ANNUAL REPORT 2020For credit purposes, there is only a credit risk where the contracting entity is liable to pay the Group on settlement. The Treasury Policy 
sets limits on the amount of credit exposure to each financial institution. New derivatives, cash and term deposit transactions are 
limited to financial institutions that meet minimum credit rating criteria in accordance with the Policy or as approved under the Policy. 
These limits are set to minimise the concentration of risk and therefore mitigate the risk of financial loss as a result of a counterparty’s 
failure to make a payment.

Customer credit risk is managed by each business subject to established policies, procedures and controls relating to customer risk 
management. Credit limits are set for each customer and these are regularly monitored. For information concerning percentage of sales 
to the Group’s top three customers and trade receivables past due but not impaired, refer to Notes 2 and 6a respectively.

The Group’s maximum exposure for credit risk is the sum of the carrying amount of all cash assets, other financial assets at amortised 
cost, loans receivable, trade and other receivables and derivative asset balances.

iii)  Foreign currency translation risk
The financial statements for each of Coca-Cola Amatil Limited’s foreign operations are prepared in their local currency. For the 
purposes of preparing the Group’s consolidated financial information, each foreign operation’s financial statements are translated into 
Australian Dollars using applicable foreign exchange rates for the reporting period. A translation risk exists on translating the financial 
statements of Coca-Cola Amatil Limited’s foreign operations. As a result, volatility in foreign exchange rates can impact the Group’s net 
assets, profit and other comprehensive income. 

The Group does not as a matter of policy, hedge translation risk. However, there are occasions when it is considered appropriate to 
hedge foreign currency denominated earnings and this form of translation risk may be hedged from time to time.

16  FAIR VALUE
The Group applies historical cost accounting, with the exception of financial assets and liabilities. These financial assets and liabilities 
and a summary of how fair value accounting is applied, are summarised below:

Financial assets and liabilities

Carrying amount and fair value relationship

Cash, trade and other 
receivables and payables

Borrowings – bonds

Values are approximately the same mainly due to their short-term nature.

At 31 December 2020, the carrying and fair values of the Group’s bonds were $2,006.4 million and 
$2,251.6 million (2019: $2,157.1 million and $2,272.2 million) respectively. To calculate fair values, 
inputs were based on interest rates and yield curves at commonly quoted intervals and credit 
spreads (level 2 inputs) that are observable for a similar liability in the market. Bonds pay fixed 
interest; difference between the carrying and fair values for bonds is driven by the agreed fixed 
interest and level 2 inputs used to calculate the fair value.

Long-term deposits and 
borrowings – other than bonds

Values are approximately same, mainly due to the absence of material break costs on early 
repayment or cancellation.

Other investments

Comprise early stage or seed investments which are not traded. Fair value is determined using a 
range of factors including performance to plan (such as cash usage/generation, growth in 
customer base, growth in transaction volume) and share pricing achieved in capital raisings after 
initial investment.

Derivatives

Accounted for at fair value using the valuation techniques described below.

DERIVATIVES – VALUATION TECHNIQUES

Fair values of derivatives based on quoted prices in active markets are categorised as level 1. The Group establishes fair value by using 
valuation techniques such as discounted cash flow or option pricing models (level 2), using inputs that are observable either directly 
(as prices) or indirectly (derived from prices). These include reference to the fair values of recent arm’s length transactions, involving 
the same or similar instruments. The classification of derivatives by level is shown in the table below:

COCA-COLA AMATIL ANNUAL REPORT 2020Transactions with TCCC and its subsidiaries

Purchases and other payments
This represents purchases of concentrates and beverage bases and royalty payments for Coca-Cola trademarked products and 
finished goods.

Reimbursements and other receipts
Under a series of arrangements, the Group participates with certain subsidiaries of TCCC to jointly develop the market of the territories 
in which the Group operates. These arrangements include a regular shared marketing expenses program, under which the Group 
contributes to certain TCCC incurred marketing expenditure and TCCC contributes to certain marketing expenditure incurred by the 
Group. Amounts received are either accounted for as an increase to revenue or as a reduction to expense, as appropriate. 

KEY MANAGEMENT PERSONNEL (KMP)

Disclosures relating to KMP are set out in Note 19 and in the Directors’ Report.

18  EMPLOYEE OWNERSHIP PLANS
Coca-Cola Amatil Limited has the following plans: the Employees Share Plan, the Long-Term Incentive Plan and the Executive Post-Tax 
Share Purchase Plan. Coca-Cola Amatil Limited fully paid ordinary shares issued under these plans rank equally with all other existing 
fully paid ordinary shares with respect to voting rights, dividends and future bonus and rights issues. 

EMPLOYEES SHARE PLAN (ESP)

The ESP provides all full-time and part-time permanent employees with an opportunity to contribute up to 3% of their base salary to 
acquire shares in Coca-Cola Amatil Limited. The ESP is administered by a trustee which acquires and holds shares on behalf of the 
participants. These shares are purchased on market at prevailing market prices. Shares forfeited under the terms of the ESP are also 
utilised. For every share acquired with amounts contributed by a participant, a matching share is acquired by the trustee, which under 
normal circumstances vests with the employee after a period of two years from their date of issue (acquisition or utilisation) with 
contributions made by the employing entities. There are no performance conditions. Members of the ESP receive dividends on both 
vested and unvested shares held on their behalf by the trustee. As at 31 December 2020, the number of shares in the ESP, both vested 
and unvested, was 2,699,155 (2019: 2,642,483). The number of shares vested to employees was 1,361,485 (2019: 1,333,373). All shares 
were purchased on market during the year. 

LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PLAN (LTIP)

Under Coca-Cola Amatil Limited’s LTIP, senior executives (as approved by the Board) are granted share rights and have the opportunity 
to be rewarded with fully paid ordinary shares, providing the LTIP meets minimum pre-determined hurdles covering a three-year period, 
as set by the People Committee. These shares are purchased on market or issued to the trustee once the LTIP vests. Vested share 
rights will be converted into shares at the next trading window. In any event, including if there is no share trading window, the Board 
retains discretion to settle share rights as cash equivalent per the LTIP plan rules.

The LTIP 2020-2022 has three performance conditions, namely earnings per share (EPS), Relative Total Shareholder Return (TSR) and 
Absolute TSR. The LTIP 2019-2021 was the only plan that had two performance conditions, namely Relative TSR and Absolute TSR. 
Details of the performance and service conditions for the LTIP 2020-2022 are provided in the Remuneration Report.

Dividends are payable to participants of the LTIP only once the rights vest into shares.

The fair value of shares offered in the LTIP was determined by an independent external valuer using an option pricing model with the 
following inputs:

EXECUTIVE POST-TAX SHARE PURCHASE PLAN

All senior executives are required to have a portion of their short-term incentives deferred as restricted shares. The shares are purchased 
on market and trading of these shares by the executives is restricted for 12 months for 50% of the shares, with the remaining 50% 
restricted for 24 months. Dividends are payable to the participants of the Plan. Details on the forfeiture conditions of these shares are 
provided in the Remuneration Report. As at 31 December 2020, the number of restricted shares in the Plan was 106,818 (2019: 88,419).

RECOGNITION AND MEASUREMENT

The value of services provided by employees to the Group in return for Coca-Cola Amatil Limited’s shares granted under employee 
ownership plans, is measured by reference to the fair value of the shares as at the grant date. Fair values are determined as the cost 
of shares purchased for employer contributions to the ESP (shares are purchased at grant date) and are determined by an independent 
external valuer for shares granted under the LTIP (shares are purchased at vesting date).

The fair value of shares is charged to the income statement over the vesting period, with a matching increase in the share-based 
remuneration reserve recognised, representing the obligation to provide these shares on vesting. On vesting, the treasury shares 
account and this reserve are reduced.

No expense is recognised for awards that do not ultimately vest, except for awards where vesting is only conditional upon a market condition, such 
as Relative TSR and Absolute TSR, or subject to service conditions not being fulfilled (as determined by the Board at its absolute discretion).

25  CONTINGENT LIABILITY
On 24 July 2020, Company’s subsidiary, Associated Products & Distribution Proprietary Limited (APD), was joined to proceedings in the 
Supreme Court of Queensland between a Glencore mining joint venture and the State of Queensland, whereby APD’s entitlement to 
coal royalties, from its sub-surface strata and associated mineral rights, has been challenged by the State of Queensland. 

Since 2014, the Group has received approximately $80 million in royalties, which has been recorded as ‘other revenue’ within the 
Corporate & Services segment. This includes $5.0 million received in 2019 and $1.7 million in 2020. Thereafter the royalty payments 
have been paid directly to court while the proceedings are ongoing which totals to $1.3 million for 2H20.

The Group intends to defend APD’s rights to income, past and future. The proceedings involve numerous factual and legal questions 
and will likely take considerable time to resolve. The timetable for the proceedings has not yet been finalised. 

Apart from the above, there are no other contingent liabilities.

26  ACQUISITION BY COCA-COLA EUROPEAN PARTNERS
On 4 November 2020, we announced that Coca-Cola Amatil had entered into an agreement with Coca-Cola European Partners plc (CCEP) 
for the acquisition of all of the issued shares held by independent Shareholders pursuant to a Scheme of Arrangement (CCEP Scheme of 
Arrangement or Scheme). Under the agreement, independent Shareholders would receive total cash consideration of $12.75 per share, 
less any final dividend in respect of the half year ended 31 December 2020 (2H 2020) declared and paid to Shareholders before the 
date of implementation of any Scheme. We also announced that CCEP had entered into a separate agreement to acquire the Amatil 
shares indirectly held by The Coca-Cola Company, conditional upon implementation of the Scheme (CCEP/TCCC Transaction).

On 15 February 2021, we announced that Amatil had entered into a revised agreement with CCEP that increases the total cash 
consideration that independent Shareholders will receive under the Scheme from $12.75 per share to $13.50 cash per share. Consistent 
with the initial offer, the total cash consideration would be reduced by the cash amount of the final dividend in respect of 2H 2020. 
CCEP has declared that this is its best and final offer. There were no changes to the CCEP/TCCC Transaction. 

Independent Shareholders will have the opportunity to vote on the Scheme at the upcoming Amatil Scheme Meeting scheduled to 
occur in mid-April 2021. A draft scheme booklet containing relevant information on the Scheme is expected to be submitted to ASIC on 
or before 22 February 2021 and dispatched to independent Shareholders in mid-March 2021. 

The Amatil Related Party Committee and Group Managing Director, Alison Watkins, unanimously recommend that independent 
Shareholders vote in favour of the Scheme, in the absence of a superior proposal and subject to the independent expert concluding 
(and continuing to conclude) that the Scheme is fair and reasonable and in the best interests of independent Shareholders. 

Australian Foreign Investment Review Board approval for the Scheme was obtained on 29 January 2021. However, the Scheme remains 
subject to a number of other conditions including New Zealand Overseas Investment Office approval, independent Shareholder 
approval and Australian court approval.

27  NEW STANDARDS AND INTERPRETATIONS
The Group has early adopted AASB 2020-4 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – COVID-19-Related Rent Concessions. 
This standard applies to annual periods beginning on or after 1 June 2020 and the financial impact of the application of this standard 
is not material to the period ended 31 December 2020 financial statements. The Group has not early adopted any other new standards, 
amendments to standards and interpretations that have been issued or amended but are not yet effective. 

28  EVENTS AFTER THE BALANCE DATE
Subsequent to the balance sheet date, other than as noted in 26, no matters or circumstances have arisen that have significantly affected, or 
may significantly affect, the operations, the results of those operations or the state of affairs of the Group in subsequent financial periods.

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report as a whole is free from material 
misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable 
assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with the Australian

recognition and measurement of rebates and promotional allowances, 
including establishing an appropriate accrual at year end, involves 
significant judgment and estimate, particularly related to the expected 
level of rebate claims by the customers. 

As part of an audit in accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards, we exercise professional judgement and maintain 
professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:

 Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to fraud or error, design 
and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate 
to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than 
for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the 
override of internal control.

Reports are only mailed to those Shareholders who have elected

DIVIDENDS PAID
The sum of dividends paid to Shareholders relating to 2020 was 
27.0 cents per share, 42.6% lower than 2019 (excluding the 2019 
interim special dividend of 4.0 cents per share). Based on ongoing 
operations, this represents a payout ratio of 57.5% for the full 
year. Franking levels differed across 2020, with the interim 
dividend being unfranked (0%) and the final dividend being fully 
franked (100%). Full year free cash flow was sufficient to cover 
both interim and final dividend payments.

DIRECT DEPOSIT OF DIVIDENDS
As previously advised to Shareholders, commencing with the final 
dividend payment in April 2012, Coca-Cola Amatil introduced a 
system of mandatory direct crediting of dividends in Australia.

Commencing with the 2013 final dividend payment in April 2014, 
the same mandatory direct crediting was introduced in New 
Zealand, and cheques will only be paid to non-New Zealand 
overseas Shareholders without an Australian or New Zealand 
financial institution account, or in exceptional circumstances.

If you are an Australian or New Zealand resident Shareholder, any 
Coca-Cola Amatil dividends will be paid directly into your bank 
account on the dividend payment date. Your dividend statement 
will be sent by mail or emailed to you on that date.

If you are an Australian or New Zealand Shareholder and have not 
provided your Australian or New Zealand bank account details, 
you will not receive your dividend until you do so. You can provide 
your bank account details by contacting the share registry, Link 
Market Services.

DIVIDEND REINVESTMENT PLAN (DRP)
The Board of Coca-Cola Amatil Limited has determined to 
suspend our DRP in relation to the 2020 final dividend. As 
a result, our DRP is not currently available to Shareholders.

The DRP rules may be modified, suspended or terminated by 
the Directors at any time by way of an announcement to the 
ASX and placed on Coca-Cola Amatil’s website. Changes will 
be effective on the date of the announcement. For additional 
information and a DRP application form, please contact our 
share registry, Link Market Services, on +61 1300 554 474 or 
at www.linkmarketservices.com.au.

TAX FILE NUMBERS
Australian taxpayers who do not provide details of their tax file 
number will have the unfranked portion of dividends subjected 
to the top marginal personal tax rate plus Medicare levy. It may 
be in the interests of Shareholders to ensure that tax file numbers 
have been supplied to the share registry. Forms are available from 
the share registry should you wish to notify the registry of your 
tax file number or tax exemption details.

CHANGE OF ADDRESS
It is important for Shareholders to notify the share registry 
promptly of any change of address. As a security measure, the 
old address should also be quoted as well as your Shareholder 
Reference Number (SRN). You may also update your details 
online at www.linkmarketservices.com.au.
