Interim management statement for the nine months ended 31 March 2008
Diageo maintains full year guidance for 9% organic operating profit growth in year ending 30 June 2008.
In the nine month period ended 31 March 2008 Diageo’s organic net sales growth was 7%, in line with the performance seen in the first half of the year ending 30 June 2008.
There has been no material change in the financial position of the group. The return of cash to shareholders through the payment of dividends and the continued share buy back programme led to a reduction in net assets from £4.2 billion at 30 June 2007 to £3.9 billion at 31 March 2008.
Paul Walsh, Chief Executive of Diageo commented:
‘Trading in the third quarter continued in line with the first half and we are therefore maintaining our guidance for 9% organic operating profit growth for the current fiscal year.
‘We continue to believe that the diversity and strength of our brands, the success of our marketing campaigns, our superior routes to market and our global reach will be key in delivering our performance .’

At the time of the preliminary results on 30 August 2007 Diageo announced the following timetable for issuing interim management statements:
At the AGM in October 2007

DIAGEO TO CREATE WORLD-CLASS BREWING FACILITIES IN IRELAND
Following a comprehensive review of brewing operations in Ireland, Diageo has today announced a proposal to create world-class brewing facilities in Ireland over the next five years to support the growth and development of Diageo’s global beer business.
The proposal includes:
  The investment of £520 million between 2009 and 2013 to renovate the world famous St. James’s Gate brewery and to construct a new multi-product brewery close to Dublin.
 
  The closure of two smaller breweries at Kilkenny and Dundalk.
 
  The release of surplus land, between 2013 and 2015, on parts of the St James’s Gate site as well as in Kilkenny and Dundalk, with an estimated current value of approximately £400 million.
The renovated St. James’s Gate brewery will brew Guinness primarily for the Irish and British markets and the new brewery will produce Guinness to meet growing export demand and ales and lagers for the Irish market. These two breweries will be designed to operate to the highest quality, operational and environmental standards. When the new brewery is commissioned in five years time, production from the existing breweries in Kilkenny and Dundalk will be transferred, resulting in the closure of these facilities. The Guinness Storehouse, Ireland’s most popular tourist attraction, will continue to be based at St. James’s Gate.

 


Table of Contents

The new breweries will enhance the cost competitiveness of Diageo’s global brewing operations when the new facilities are commissioned in 2013. At that point there will be a net reduction in staff of around 250. It is currently estimated that one off cash costs relating to the restructuring of Diageo’s Irish brewing operations will total approximately £120 million. These will be treated as an exceptional cost mainly in the fiscal year ending 30 June 2008. In addition accelerated depreciation in respect of plant and equipment will be provided as an exceptional item over the period of the closure of the facilities.
Paul Walsh, Chief Executive of Diageo plc, said:
“Over the last twelve months we have conducted a rigorous review of our brewing operations in Ireland. It examined many options and I believe it has identified the right formula for the long-term success of our business in Ireland and for the continued global success of the Guinness brand. Our ambition is to combine the most modern brewing standards with almost 300 years of brewing tradition, craft and heritage.”
