(1) Analysis of Operating Results
(Qualitative information on the Consolidated Operating Results) (Overview of Full-year 2019 Results)
Coca-Cola Bottlers Japan Holdings Inc. ("CCBJH" or the "Company") announced the results of the fiscal year ending on December 31, 2019 (January 1, 2019 to December 31, 2019). In this fiscal year, total non-alcoholicready-to-drink (NARTD) beverage industry volume performance is estimated to be slightly negative versus prior year mainly due to cycling of strong demand driven by hot summer weather last year as well as longer rainy and cool weather in July. The health food and cosmetics industries continue to grow, driven by demand from health-conscious consumers and inbound tourism, while the competitive environment has been marked by successive product launches by various industry players.
For CCBJH, 2019 has been a transition year focused on recovery from the flooding damage and disruption to product supply in 2018 and building a solid foundation for future growth. We have been making major investments to recover our supply network and progressively expand production capacity, and will continue to do so through second quarter 2020. We were the first in the beverage industry to announce and implement a wholesale price increase for large PET products in April, the first time in 27 years, as an important initiative toward achieving more balanced volume and revenue growth.
We developed and announced a new five-year strategic business plan in August 2019 with targets for both Business Income margin and ROE in 2024 of 5 to 6%. The new five-year strategic business plan includes focused investments to reignite sales growth in close collaboration with Coca-Cola (Japan) Company, Limited as well as fundamental transformation to drive cost savings. Over the course of the five-year plan, we expect net cost savings of approximately 35 billion yen, representing ongoing savings initiatives and incremental programs focused on transforming our vending channel operations, evolving our frontline salesforce capabilities and identifying opportunities across procurement and our supply chain.
Our full-year results were impacted by a decline of topline revenue due to lower beverage business sales volume, reflecting supply constraints of higher-growth aseptic PET products and continued lower manufacturing efficiencies and elevated logistics and distribution expenses as we recover our supply and distribution infrastructure after the flooding in 2018. Business income for our core beverage business was ahead of the plan we announced in May 2019, offset by weaker performance in the health and skincare segment. Consolidated year-to-date results also reflect impairment of goodwill recorded in the second quarter.
In addition to the qualitative information contained in this report, please also see our earnings presentation material posted on the Company IR website (https://en.ccbj-holdings.com/ir/library/presentation.php) to be used at our earnings presentation on Friday, February 14, 2020 at 1:30pm (JST). The earnings presentation and audio will be available live and on demand as an audio webcast in the IR section of the CCBJH website.
Full-year 2019 Highlights
- Full-yearNARTD beverage volume declined 2%, reflecting unseasonably cool and rainy weather in July and the wholesale price increase in April, recovering to 1% growth in the fourth quarter (October to December). Full-year beverage business revenue declined 1% and grew 1% in the fourth quarter.
- Beverage business market share improved, with value share growth ahead of volume share in the fourth quarter led by coffee, non-sugar tea and sports category performance. Premium-priced new products contributed to value share growth
- Business Income (BI) was substantially in-line with the full-year plan announced in May 2019 led by ahead-of-plan core beverage performance despite underachievement of the health care & skin care business. Full-year Business Income decreased 35% versus prior year as we continue to recover from the supply disruption of 2018.
- Full-yearoperating loss of 55 billion yen reflects the goodwill impairment recorded in the second-quarter.
- Continued investment for recovery of supply network, expanding production capacity and improving infrastructure. Capital investments of close to 90 billion yen in 2019, with three new manufacturing lines and two new automated warehouses, as well as completion of company-wide deployment of a new ERP system, "CokeOne".
- Major transformational initiatives ongoing. Announced new organizational structure aligned with the strategic business plan and grounded in new corporate mission, vision and value statement. Executing transformation in vending business and investing in people capability development to achieve sustainable growth.

- Sales volume of beverage business excludes alcoholic beverage volume, which was 1.9 million cases in 2019.
- We have introduced "Business Income" as a measure of our underlying or recurring business performance after the adoption of IFRS in 2019. Business income deducts cost of goods and SG&A from revenue and includes other income and expenses which we believe recurring in nature.
Full-year 2019 net revenue was 914.8 billion yen, a decrease of 12.5 billion yen, or 1.4% compared to the prior-year period. Net revenue of the beverage business decreased 9.9 billion yen (1.1%) versus the prior-year period, to 890 billion yen, reflecting a 2% volume decline offset by improved price/mix from the wholesale price increase of large PET packages in April and the national launch of Lemon dou "chu-hi" alcohol beverage in the fourth quarter. Net revenue of the healthcare & skincare business declined 2.7 billion yen (9.7%) year-on-year to 24.8 billion yen, reflecting continued weakness of mail/web order sales with some recovery in the fourth quarter due to new product launches and marketing activities.

Full-year business income, an indicator of our recurring business performance, was 15.0 billion yen, a decrease of 8.2 billion, or 35.4% year-on-year, and roughly in line with full-year expectations. Business income of the core beverage business was 11.4 billion yen (down 6.5 billion yen or 36.2% year-on-year), which was slightly above the revised plan target announced in May driven by tight control of expenses. The beverage business performance reflects weaker topline revenue due to the sales volume decline of 2% and continued lower manufacturing efficiencies and elevated logistics and distribution expenses this year as we recover and expand supply capacity after the disruption in the second half of 2018. Partly offsetting this pressure, we achieved labor savings as a result of integrating retirement benefit programs in the first quarter and completing a voluntary employee retirement program in the second quarter. Promotional expenses in the period were also lower, in line with volume performance. Business income in the healthcare & skincare business was 3.6 billion yen, a decrease of 1.7 billion yen or 32.7% year-on-year, reflecting lower revenues while we continue to focus on promotional expense control and other cost savings opportunities.
We reported a consolidated operating loss for the fiscal year of 55.4 billion yen (14.7 billion yen operating income in prior year period), mainly driven by the impairment of goodwill recorded in the second quarter. As a reference, other expenses (non- recurring) in the prior-year period include loss on disaster of 8.9 billion yen from the flooding damage in our Hongo Plant in Mihara-city, Hiroshima Prefecture in July 2018. Other expenses (non-recurring) in 2019 include 9.2 billion yen of special retirement allowance and 655 million yen of transformation-related expenses to drive fundamental transformation of our business for sustainable growth, further value creation and efficiency improvement following our newly developed strategic business plan announced in August 2019.
Net income attributable to owners of parent was a loss of 58.0 billion yen (10.1 billion yen in the prior-year period).
Beverage volume performance by channel and category (excluding alcohol)
Full-year volume performance was impacted by weaker performance of new launches and product renewals this year as we focus on rebuilding supply capacity, large PET volume declines due to the wholesale price increase in April, and unseasonably rainy and cool weather in July. Volume performance has recovered and 1% growth in the fourth quarter.
By channel, full-year supermarket, drug & discounter and convenience store volume declined 3%, 2% and 4%, respectively. The vending and retail & food channels both declined 1% versus the prior year. Supermarket and drug & discounter channels were initially impacted by the wholesale price increase in April, as the large PET volume contribution is relatively higher in these channels, with double-digit volume declines in the second quarter. Fourth-quarter volume for both channels grew 3% and 4%, respectively, as the wholesale price increase settled in and we started to cycle the worst of the prior-year supply constraints in the second half of the year. Also, revenue per case continued to improve in both channels after the wholesale price increase. Vending volume in the fourth quarter was even versus prior year, reflecting continued moderating volume trends from third quarter. We have expanded initiatives to drive vending purchase transaction growth, such as new package sizes and price points, as well as increasing availability of the Georgia Japan Craftsman brand in aseptic PET packaging.
By category, full-year coffee volume was even versus prior year supported by expanding coverage of Georgia Japan Craftsman across all channels and introducing smaller package sizes in coffee in vending. Non-sugar tea and sports category volumes grew in the fourth quarter, but full-year volume decreased 1% and 3%, respectively, impacted by large PET package volume declines after the wholesale price increase. Sparkling beverage volume declined 5% for the full year due to weaker product renewal performance and the wholesale price increase, which was partially offset by new product launches such as Coca-Cola Energy in the third quarter. Full-year water volume declined 8% as we cycled prior year product launches of immediate consumption iLohas-brand water, and as a result of the wholesale price increase, which impacted sales of Mori no Mizu brand water sold in two-liter packaging. Fourth-quarter water volume grew 1%, led by growth of plain iLohas-brand water.
(Outlook for next fiscal year)
In 2020, we expect the overall Japan non alcoholic ready-to-drink (NARTD) beverage market volume to be flat versus 2019, cycling lower demand due to the cool and rainy summer weather in 2019 and the large PET wholesale price increase.
Under these circumstances, and reflecting the mid-term business plan's guiding principle that "business as usual is not an option", CCBJH is executing a transformation of our cost structure, including in the important vending channel and back-office routines, and increasing front-facing investments for growth in such areas as production capacity, space-to-sell and people development, and we will continue to drive fundamental business change to return to a sustainable growth trajectory.
In the beverage business segment, in order to grow together as one "Coca-Cola System" in Japan, we will work closely with the Coca-Cola (Japan) Company, Ltd. with aligned investment plans and more focused innovation on "fewer, bigger bets" to
4
drive revenue growth. And we will continue to transform the Commercial organization to realize best-in-class customer management, starting with a new organizational structure in January 2020 in order to strengthen customer relationships and sales execution. Regarding the vending channel, we aim to deliver sustainable growth by expanding the operational process reengineering we started in the Kinki region in 2019. In addition, together with The Coca-Cola Company as a world-wide partner, we will leverage the excitement of the Tokyo Olympic and Paralympic games held in Japan for the first time in 56 years, and we will implement comprehensive marketing campaigns to activate the market. Finally, the national launch of the Lemon-dou alcohol brand is performing well, and we will continue to expand our presence in this new beverage category.
Regarding our manufacturing capacity and efforts to optimize our logistics and distribution network, which are key elements of our growth plan, we will commission four new production lines in 2020, including the new Hiroshima plant, and we continue to build out the Project Shinsei logistics and distribution infrastructure, including optimization of sales centers and construction of automated warehouses and a new mega distribution center in Saitama Prefecture. We will also expand the transformation of our back office operations into what we call centers of excellence and centers of scale, including outsourcing of transactional processing where feasible. Our intiatives include people strategies aligned with our new Mission, Vision and Values as well as initiatives for ESG goals for creating shared value including World Without Waste, our 2030 Package Vision for the Coca-Cola system in Japan.
In the health food and cosmetic business, we expect continued market growth, but with intensified competition as more players seek to participate in this growing market segment. Under these circumstances, we will activate the existing main products and recent new launches with effective marketing and advertising, including expanding to internet sales and focusing on action to expand our customer base. Also, we will continue to make efforts in product development and marketing capabilities to ensure a pipeline of relevant products that meet consumers' changing needs.
We expect consolidated revenue for this year will be 927.2 billion yen, an increase of 1% versus 2019, reflecting total beverage volume growth of 3%. Business income is expected to increase 20.0% versus the prior year, to 18.0 billion yen. Reported operating income is expected to increase 14.0 billion yen (In 2019, Operating loss is 55.4 billion yen). Net income attributable to the owners of the parent is expected to 9.0 billion yen (In 2019, Net loss attributable to the owners of the parent is 58.0 billion yen).
(2) Analysis of Financial Position
Assets at the end of the fiscal year were JPY 952.4 billion yen, an increase of 75.0 billion yen from the end of the previous fiscal year. This is mainly attributable to an increase of Cash and cash equivalents by bond issuance in the third quarter, increase of fixed assets as a result of commissioning three new production lines in Kumamoto and Kyoto plant, and two new automated warehouses in Hakushu and Kumamoto plant as well as non-current assets by newly including Right-of- use assets as a result of the implementation of IFRS 16 starting from this fiscal year, which are partially offset by decrease of goodwill by goodwill impairment in the second quarter.
Liabilities at the end of the quarter were 446.0 billion yen, an increase of 149.4 billion yen from the end of previous fiscal year. This is mainly due to an increase of Bonds and debt in non-current liabilities due to issuance of the bond, and an increase of Lease liabilities in conjunction with including Right-of-use assets.
Net assets at the end of the quarter were 506.5 billion yen, a decrease of 74.4 billion yen. This is mainly due to a decrease of Retained Earnings as a result of the goodwill impairment and an increase of Treasury Shares due to the completion of the share buyback program in February 2019.
The cash flow conditions for the full-year are as follows.Net cash used for operations was 42.6 billion yen (51.2 billion net cash generated from operations in the previous year period). This results mainly from the 55.4 billion yen net loss before tax, loss due to impairment of goodwill, depreciation expenses, increase of notes and account payable-trade, etc. offset by an increase of trade and other receivable, inventories, payment of taxes, etc.
Net cash used for investment activities was 68.3 billion yen (48.6 billion yen in the previous year period), due to purchases of fixed assets as we recover our supply network and progressively expand production capacity, etc.
5
Net cash generated from financing activities was 74.0 billion yen (55.8 billion yen net cash used for financing activities in the previous year period), driven by an issuance of 150 billion yen of straight bond, etc., partially offset by cash spent for share buy- back, payment of year-end dividends, etc.
As a result of these activities, cash and cash equivalents at the end of the fiscal year was 113.8 billion yen, an increase of 48.3 billion yen versus the prior year period.
(3) Basic Policies for Income Distribution and Dividends for FY2019 and FY2020
The Company periodically reviews its capital structure and dividend payout ratio to maximize shareholder returns while maintaining flexibility to pursue growth opportunities. The Company seeks to use retained earnings to fund investment for sustainable growth for our business and further enhancement of corporate value.
CCBJH sets its basic policy regarding dividends, which includes active redistribution of profits while placing the highest priority on paying dividends in a stable manner, by comprehensively reviewing the Company's business performance and level of retained earnings. In addition, the Company has set a payout ratio target of 30% or more for net profit attributable to owners of the parent. The company pays interim and year-end dividends.
The Company plans to pay 25 yen per share for year-end dividend for the year ending December 2019, and the annual dividend will be 50 yen per share including the 25 yen-per-share interim dividend. This represents the same per-share dividend versus prior year. Regarding the dividend forecast for the year ending December 2020, the Company plans to pay the same amount of dividend per share, which is 25 yen per share for the interim and year-end dividends, respectively, and therefore the expected annual dividend will be 50 yen per share. This reflects the business outlook for the year as well as our policy of prioritizing stable dividends payment during this period of transformation.
The Company continues to consider the implementation of share buybacks by comprehensively reviewing the Company's business performance and level of retained earnings. The Company completed 13 billion yen of share buybacks in the fiscal year ending December 2019.
2. Basic Concept Concerning the Selection of Accounting Standards
Coca-Cola Bottlers Japan Holdings Group (The Group) discloses consolidated financial statements based on International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) starting from the fiscal year ending December 2018, with a view to enhancing the international comparability of financial statements and contributing to the improved convenience for shareholders and investors of the Company.

(Changes in Accounting Policies)
The Group adopted the new accounting standards and interpretations, which became mandatory in the year ended December31, 2019. Significant accounting standards and interpretations are as follows:
Establishment or revision of accounting
standards and interpretations
IFRS 16 Leases
(published January 2016)
Summary of requirements
New standard for leases, replacing IAS 17, requires all leases to be shown on the statements of financial position as if they were financed purchases. The new standard sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosures of leases.
The impact of the application of IFRS 16 is as follows. There is no significant impact of this change in accounting policy on earnings per share. The Group retrospectively applied IFRS 16 according to transitional measures, the cumulative effect of the commencement of application is recognized as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the current consolidated fiscal year. In the transition to IFRS 16, the practical expedient of IFRS 16.C3 was selected as to whether an arrangement contains a lease or not, it takes over the judgment of IAS 17 "Leases" and IFRIC 4 "Determining whether an Arrangement contains a Lease".
IFRS 16 requires that lessee's lease not be classified as finance lease or operating lease, but rather as a single accounting model and, in principle, recognize the right-of-use asset representing the right to use the underlying asset and the lease liability representing the obligation to pay the lease payments for all leases. However, for short-term leases or leases for which the underlying asset is of low value, the Group may elect not to apply the requirements of this standard. After recognizing right- of-use asset and lease liability, right-of-use asset depreciation and interest expense related to lease liability are recognized.
In the Group, the lease term of the right-of-use assets is estimated by adding a reasonably reliable period in which the option to extend the lease is not exercised or the option to cancel the lease is not exercised. In addition, the discount rate applied to the lease liabilities for the right-of-use assets uses the lessee's incremental borrowing rate, and the weighted average is mainly 1.0%. Right-of-use assets are depreciated using the straight-line method mainly over 15 years from the start date.
As of the end of the previous consolidated fiscal year, finance lease liabilities that were recognized by applying IAS 17 were 901 million yen.
Of 7,644 million yen (before discount) of the operating lease contracts disclosed by applying this standard, 549 million yen (before discount) is accounted for as a small-value asset lease, in addition, there is a 37,409 million yen increase in lease liabilities over a period in which it is reasonably certain that the extension option will be exercised.
As a result, in the consolidated statement of financial position at the beginning of the current consolidated fiscal year under review, right-of-use assets increased by 44,034 million yen, deferred tax assets increased by 15,200 million yen, lease liabilities increased by 44,505 million yen, deferred tax liabilities increased by 15,028 million yen and long-term accounts payable increased by 40 million yen, retained earnings decreased by 338 million yen. Deferred tax assets and Deferred tax liabilities are offset on the consolidated balance sheets based on IAS 12 "Income taxes".
In addition, cash flow from operating activities increased by 7,000 million yen and cash flows from financing activities decreased by 7,000 million yen in condensed quarterly consolidated cash flows for the year.
