In these tables and elsewhere, we refer to Statutory (Reported) and Underlying results.

Underlying figures are adjusted for acquisitions and disposals, the phasing of events including biennials, the impact of changes from new accounting standards and accounting policy changes, and the effects of currency. They include, on a pro-forma basis, results from acquisitions from the first day of ownership in the comparative period and exclude results from sold businesses from the date of disposal in the comparative period. Statutory figures exclude such adjustments. 

We also refer to Statutory (Reported) and Adjusted results, as well as other non-statutory financial measures. Adjusted results are prepared to provide an alternative measure to explain the Group’s performance. Adjusted results exclude adjusting items as set out in Note 7 to the Financial Statements within the Annual Report.

Definitions for these and other alternative performance measures can be found in the Annual Report.
