Outlook

2014 proved to be another successful year for the Group. Despite the ongoing challenges within the UK grocery sector, our UK sales again outperformed the soft drinks market and in particular the Vimto brand performance was strong. General consensus suggests that the UK grocery market will continue to be challenging into 2015 and against that back drop it is important to emphasise the Group's diverse income streams, with less than 25% of Group sales coming from the UK major multiple retailers. As we progress into 2015, we will continue to deliver our growth strategy, including further investment in our brands and markets both in the UK and overseas.

In summary, the Group has continued to perform successfully in 2014 delivering increased sales, strong profit growth and has maintained a robust balance sheet. The Board is confident that the Group is well placed to continue this trend into 2015.

+ 14% dividend increase
