Press Release FY23
FY23 Net Sales grew +10% organically, totalling €12,137m. Reported Sales growth was +13% with
favourable foreign exchange impact mostly from USD appreciation versus EUR.
Broad-based growth across all regions with strong pricing execution:
• Americas: +2%, dynamic growth in LATAM led by Mexico and low-single digit growth in North
America with stable Net Sales in USA and underlying value depletions +2%. Declining Sales
expected in Q1 in USA, on high comparison basis, with positive outlook for the full year
• Asia-RoW: +17%, excellent broad-based growth led by India, Travel Retail recovery, China and
Turkey. Solid performance in Japan, South Korea and dynamic rebound in Southeast Asia.
Challenging macroeconomic environment in China leading to declining Net Sales in Q1 FY24, with
high comparison basis expected to ease from Q2
• Europe: +8%, strong resilience and pricing with growth led by Spain, Germany and rebound in
Travel Retail.
All spirits categories delivered strong growth:
• Strategic International Brands: +11%, strong momentum led by Scotch, Martell, Jameson
and Absolut
• Strategic Local Brands: +10%, very dynamic growth notably led by Seagram’s Indian
whiskies and Olmeca
• Specialty Brands: +8%, continued development led by Lillet, Aberlour, Malfy and the Spot
Range
• Strategic Wines: (2)%, overall soft performance mainly driven by Jacob’s Creek and
Campo Viejo in UK and North America.
Strong Price/mix at +9%, mostly from strong pricing actions (+8%). Resilient volumes growing +1%.
Q4 Net Sales were €2,630m, with +19% organic growth.
RESULTS
FY23 PRO grew +11% to €3,348m (+11% reported), sustaining organic Gross Margin and expanding
organic Operating Margin thanks to leading premium portfolio, excellent Revenue Growth Management
and operational efficiencies:
• Gross margin protected +3bps as price and mix offset COGS inflation
• A&P ratio maintained at c. 16% of Net Sales, with dynamic allocation between brands,
markets and activities
• Discipline on Structure costs +37bps and growing +8% organically
• Negative FX impact on PRO of €(70)m with favorable impact from USD more than offset by
Turkish Lira and other emerging market currencies
Recurring effective tax rate at 22.6%.
Group share of Net PRO was €2,340m, +10% reported vs. FY22.
Group share of Net Profit was €2,262m, +13% reported, a strong increase thanks to Profit from
Recurring Operations growth.
OUTLOOK
Building on our very strong FY23 performance, we confidently reiterate our FY23 to FY25 mid-term
financial framework of aiming for the upper end of +4% to +7% Net Sales growth and +50/+60bps
operating margin.
In a challenging environment, we anticipate for FY24:
o Broad-based and diversified Net Sales growth for the full year, with soft start in Q1
amplified by high comparison basis
o Adapting to easing inflationary pressures
o Continued focus on Revenue Growth Management and operational efficiencies
o Consistent A&P ratio at c. 16% of Net Sales, dynamically optimized through KDPs3
o Disciplined investments in structure
o All leading to organic Operating Margin expansion
o Significant investments in Capex c. €800m-€1bn range and strategic inventories with a
similar level to FY23 to sustainably support future growth
o Share buyback of €500m to €800m in FY24
o Negative FX impact.

Press release - Paris, 31 August 2023
All growth data specified in this press release refers to organic growth (at constant FX and Group structure), unless
otherwise stated. Data may be subject to rounding.
A detailed presentation of FY23 Sales and Results can be downloaded from our website: www.pernod-ricard.com
Audit procedures have been carried out on the financial statements. The Statutory Auditors’ report will be issued after
examination of the management report and completion of procedures required for the filing of the Universal Registration
Document.”
Organic growth
- Organic growth is calculated after excluding the impacts of exchange rate movements, acquisitions and disposals
and changes in applicable accounting principles.
- Exchange rates impact is calculated by translating the current year results at the prior year’s exchange rates.
- For acquisitions in the current year, the post-acquisition results are excluded from the organic movement
calculations. For acquisitions in the prior year, post-acquisition results are included in the prior year but are
included in the organic movement calculation from the anniversary of the acquisition date in the current year.
- Where a business, brand, brand distribution right or agency agreement was disposed of, or terminated, in the
prioryear, the Group, in the organic movement calculations, excludes the results for that business from the prior
year. For disposals or terminations in the current year, the Group excludes the results for that business from the
prior year from the date of the disposal or termination.
- The impact of hyperinflation on Net Sales and PRO in Turkey is excluded from P&L organic growth calculations
by capping unit local price/cost increases to a maximum of +26% per year, equivalent to +100% over 3 years.
- This measure enables to focus on the performance of the business which is common to both years and which
represents those measures that local managers are most directly able to influence.
