Interim report
McBride plc Half‑Year Report 2016 Manufacturing our future “We are pleased with our progress in the first half and the improved profitability following the launch of our strategic transformation plan. The commitment and focus of the McBride team on the execution and delivery of our objectives is very encouraging and a critical aspect for future success. The ongoing actions of our “Repair” phase, which in part will result in lower second half revenues, are nevertheless expected to provide further progress in profitability. As a consequence, the Board is now expecting full year results to be modestly ahead of its previous expectations.” Rik De Vos Chief Executive Officer Contents Highlights1 Executive review 2 Responsibility statement 6 Independent review report to McBride plc 7 Condensed interim consolidated income statement 8 Condensed interim consolidated statement of comprehensive income 8 Condensed interim consolidated balance sheet 9 Condensed interim consolidated cash flow statement Condensed interim consolidated statement of changes in equity 10 11 Notes to the condensed interim financial statements 14 Other information 21 Shareholder information 22 McBride plc Half-Year Report 2016 1 Welcome to the McBride plc Half‑Year Report 2016 Highlights • Revenue increased by 0.4% on a constant currency basis. On a reported basis, revenues were 5.6% lower due to the impact of a weaker Euro on translated results. • Group adjusted operating profit increased 57.1% on a constant currency basis (40.8% as reported). • New segmental analysis, splitting the Group’s activities into two divisions, Household and Personal Care/Aerosols (PCA), with Household representing approximately 80% of the Group’s revenue: • sales in Household were 0.9% higher overall with growth across most regions except in the UK, where an 8.2% fall was driven by lower private label sales and the end of some contract manufacturing business. Germany continued the progress seen last year, while France delivered growth mostly from contracts; and • PCA saw a 1.5% sales decline, with a weak UK offset by good gains in Eastern Europe and strong growth in Asia. • UK restructuring project on track to deliver annualised savings of £12.0 million by 30 June 2016. • Actions from the “Repair” phase of the Group’s new strategy is well under way, with plans to lower complexity through the rationalisation of our customer base down to 25% of our existing customer portfolio on track to be complete by 30 June 2016. Additionally, new purchasing initiatives started delivering benefits in the first half year. • Adjusted profit before income tax up by 56.3% to £13.6 million (2014: £8.7m). • Net debt at £86.3 million represents 1.6x annualised adjusted EBITDA(6). • Interim payment to shareholders of 1.2 pence, in line with new policy outlined in September 2015. • Our Chairman Iain Napier has informed the Board of his intention to retire at the end of June this year by which time he will have completed nine years in the position. £m unless otherwise stated H1 2016 H1 2015(1)Change Revenue 344.1364.7(5.6%) Revenue (constant currency)(2) 344.1342.7 0.4% Adjusted operating profit(3) 17.6 12.540.8% Adjusted operating profit (constant currency)(2) 17.6 11.257.1% Adjusted operating margin(3) 5.1% 3.4%1.7ppts Operating profit 17.1 11.154.1% 13.6 8.756.3% Adjusted profit before income tax Profit before income tax13.0 7.378.1% Diluted earnings per share 4.9p 2.8p75.0% Adjusted diluted earnings per share(4)5.2p 3.4p52.9% Interim payment to shareholders (per ordinary share) 1.2p Cash flow from operations (before exceptional items) 26.2 30.7(14.7%) 1.7p(29.4%) Net debt 86.3 92.4(6.6%) Return on capital employed(5)23.6% 16.4%7.2ppts (1)Net debt comparative is as at 30 June 2015, all other comparatives refer to the six months ended on 31 December 2014 unless otherwise stated.

Implementation of the strategy has started via the phased actions and projects included in our “Repair, Prepare, Grow” programme, a transformation plan with a three to five year ambition for adjusted operating profit margin (EBITA %) of 7.5% and ROCE targeted at 25‑30%. At the time of our final results in 2015, plans for £3 million of annual overhead savings were already actioned and during the period the Group made progress with its “Repair” phase initiatives, including: • customer choices project; 75% of the Group’s customers in Europe will be exited by 30 June 2016, delivering a lower complexity product range with lower management, technical and administration requirements. The project is expected to be profit positive in isolation, and also sets the platform for further value chain improvements; • simplification of the business model and ways of working with further integration of regional management teams. The resulting flatter management structure will give rise to faster decision making and further overhead savings; • commencement of a large number of purchasing driven saving initiatives that provide both immediate and long term structural savings; • agreement for the closure to future service accrual of the UK Defined Benefit pension plan; and • a recovery plan for our Asia business, with improved results already evident and the completion of the closure of our loss‑making China operations. Additionally, a key element of the strategy review was to identify under‑performing segments of activity and determine actions to improve them where possible. During the period, we concluded a review of the operating performance of the PCA business, which represents approximately 20% of Group revenues. The review found that this business’ financial performance is some way below the Group’s average and as a result the Board has concluded that this business will be separately run by a dedicated management team in order to provide improved direction and focus. A management team has now been appointed and been tasked to produce an improvement plan during our second half year. The KPIs linked to the “Repair” phase are monitored closely. We have delivered an improvement in our average Customer Service Levels from 96.6% to 97.7% and exited the period end at over 98.5%. The labour cost/revenue measure has decreased by 0.7% to 19.0%. Board change Iain Napier, Chairman since July 2007, has advised the Board of his intention to retire from the McBride Board at the end of June 2016. The Board is commencing a search process and will provide an update at the appropriate time. Group operating results McBride’s main developed markets continue to experience challenging conditions with most territories seeing lower activity for Private Label through the period, in particular in the UK. Nevertheless, overall the Group’s half-year constant currency revenues were marginally ahead (+0.4%) of the prior period with growth from contract manufacturing offsetting private label decline. Reported revenues declined by 5.6% primarily as a result of the weaker Euro. McBride plc Half-Year Report 2016 As a consequence of the decision to separately manage the Group’s Household and PCA activities, our segmental reporting is being amended to accommodate this change, with revenues analysed on this basis in this Half-Year Report (note 4) and profits to be split from our next full year results presentation. The reported PCA financial figures will comprise of European activities and the entire Asia business. Sales growth in the Household segment delivered growth overall of 0.9%, however UK sales were lower by 8.2% as a result of continued price and volume pressures across all key accounts. We experienced good growth in our German and Spanish businesses and also in France, where some private label growth was supported by good progress in contracts. PCA saw a 1.5% sales decline overall. In Europe, our UK business saw decline in this sector as well, offset by good gains in Eastern Europe. Our Asia activities delivered strong growth in the period in all territories. Our contract manufacturing activities have shown encouraging early signs of development with existing opportunities developing well. We continue to examine growth prospects from longer‑term structural supply contracts emerging in these markets. Margins have improved during the period, reflecting the Group’s focus on sales activity which improves profitability. While the Group experienced raw material prices in line with the second half of last year, we are also seeing early benefits from purchasing initiatives, a key aspect of our “Repair” phase. The UK restructuring project is now in the final phase and on track to deliver annualised savings of £12.0 million by 30 June 2016, with savings in first half year of £5.5 million (2014: £1.5m), in line with expectations. On a constant currency basis, total operating costs before adjusting items and the impact of profit based incentives and wage inflation decreased by £2.2 million. The UK restructuring project and early actions on overhead savings from the “Repair” phase contributed £5.0 million, offset by a combination of factors, including one off strategic project costs, increased commercial costs and the setup of a new Project Management Office to manage the delivery of our strategic projects. 3 Adjusted operating profit for the period was £17.6 million (2014: £12.5m) with adjusted operating profit margin increasing to 5.1% (2014: 3.4%) and return on capital employed improving to 23.6% (2014: 16.4%). As a result of a weaker Euro, adjusted operating profit for the half year includes a negative foreign exchange translation impact of £1.3 million. Cash generated from operations before exceptional items was £26.2 million (2014: £30.7m), with a net working capital outflow of £0.1 million (2014: inflow £9.2m). Capital expenditure cash flow decreased to £5.6 million (2014: £10.0m), as a result of a slight resetting of the timing of our medium-term investment plans, with capital expenditure expected to accelerate during the next twelve months. Cash outflow for exceptional items of £3.5 million (2014: £5.8m) reflects the UK restructuring project and the early overhead actions taken in June 2015. Net cash inflow before financing activities was £13.9 million (2014: £8.2m). Cash payments made to shareholders during the period amounted to £3.7 million (2014: £5.6m), in line with our new policy. Consequently, year‑end net debt decreased to £86.3 million (30 June 2015: £92.4m). The Group’s balance sheet remains robust with net assets of £62.4 million (30 June 2015: £57.5m) and gearing at 58% (30 June 2015: 61%). The Group maintains significant borrowing headroom of £102.3 million (30 June 2015: £94.6m) on committed debt facilities. Other financial information Exceptional items During the period ended 31 December 2015, the Group recognised no exceptional items (2014: £0.8m). Exceptional costs are anticipated across the next twelve months arising from one‑off costs associated with the ongoing “Repair” phase of the strategy. Net finance costs Net finance costs were £4.1 million (2014: £3.8m) with the increase mainly due to foreign exchange losses on financing activities. Profit before income tax and tax rate Reported profit before income tax was £13.0 million (2014: £7.3m) with adjusted profit before income tax totalling £13.6 million (2014: £8.7m). The tax charge on adjusted profit before income tax for the first half of 2015/16 of £4.0 million represents a 30% effective tax rate (30 June 2015: 30%). 4 McBride plc Half-Year Report 2016 Executive review continued Earnings per share Going concern Payments to shareholders At 31 December 2015, committed undrawn facilities amounted to £102.3 million. The Group’s forecasts and projections, taking account of reasonably possible changes in trading performance, show that the Group will be able to operate comfortably within its current bank facilities. On an adjusted basis, diluted earnings per share (EPS) increased by 52.9% to 5.2 pence (2014: 3.4p) with basic EPS at 4.9 pence (2014: 2.8p). The Board reset its policy on payments to shareholders in September 2015 with a prudent approach being adopted during the early stage of the transformation plan. In line with this policy an interim payment of 1.2 pence (2014: 1.7p) is declared and will be issued using the Company’s B Share scheme. Covenants The Group’s funding arrangements are subject to covenants, representations and warranties that are customary for unsecured borrowing facilities, including two financial covenants: Debt Cover (the ratio of net debt to EBITDA) may not exceed 3:1 and Interest Cover (the ratio of EBITDA to net interest) may not be less than 4:1. For the purpose of these calculations, net debt excludes amounts drawn under the invoice discounting facilities. The Group still remains comfortably within these covenants. Pensions At 31 December 2015, the Group recognised a deficit on its UK Defined Benefit pension plan of £30.7 million (30 June 2015: £29.8m). Following consultation with staff and the UK plan’s Trustees, the UK Defined Benefit plan will cease to be open to future service accrual from 29 February 2016. Staff affected by this change have been offered a new defined contribution scheme from that date. The closure of this plan is one of the actions in the “Repair” phase to limit the growth of fund liabilities, reducing the risks and uncertainty over future cash costs associated with providing an active Defined Benefit pension scheme. Following the conclusion of the March 2015 triennial valuation, the Company and Trustees have recently agreed a new deficit reduction plan based on the scheme funding deficit of £44.2 million. This will give rise to an increase in the deficit cash funding requirements of £0.4 million to £3.0 million per annum with effect from 31 March 2015. The Group meets its funding requirements through internal cash generation and bank credit facilities, most of which are committed until April 2019. The Group has a relatively conservative level of debt to earnings. As a result, the Directors believe that the Group is well placed to manage its business risks successfully despite the current uncertain economic outlook. After making enquiries, the Directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company and the Group have adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Accordingly, they continue to adopt the going concern basis. Principal risks and uncertainties The Group is subject to risk factors both internal and external to its business, and has a well established set of risk management procedures. The following risks and uncertainties are those that the Directors believe could have the most significant impact on the Group’s business: • market competitiveness; • change agenda; • input costs; • legislative compliance; • asset utilisation; and • financial risks. For greater detail of these risks, please refer to pages 24 to 26 of the McBride plc Annual Report and Accounts 2015 – which is available on the Group’s website www.mcbride.co.uk. McBride plc Half-Year Report 2016 Related party transactions Transactions between the Company and its subsidiaries, which are related parties of the Company, have been eliminated on consolidation and, therefore, are not required to be disclosed in these condensed interim financial statements. Key management compensation and transactions with the Group’s pension and post‑employment schemes for the financial year ended 30 June 2015 are detailed in note 28 (page 108) of McBride plc’s Annual Report and Accounts 2015. A copy of McBride plc’s Annual Report and Accounts 2015 is available on McBride’s website at www.mcbride.co.uk. Although there have been changes to the Executive Leadership Team since the year end, there are no other related party transactions. Post balance sheet events There are no material post balance sheet events, other than the UK Defined Benefit plan will cease to be open to future service accrual from 29 February 2016. Forward looking statements Certain statements in the Half-Year Report are forward looking. Although the Group believes that the expectations reflected in these forward looking statements are reasonable, it can give no assurance that these statements are reasonable, it can give no assurance that these expectations will prove to be correct. Because these statements involve risks and uncertainties, actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by these forward looking statements. The Group undertakes no obligation to update any forward looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. 5 Outlook For the second half year, current expectations are for constant currency underlying revenues to be slightly lower year‑on‑year, in line with market conditions. The start of the impact from the customer choices project, planned during our first half year, is expected to reduce second half revenues by an additional £6.0 million. The ongoing actions of our “Repair” phase are expected to provide further progress in profitability, despite the backdrop of lower revenues. As a consequence, the Board is now expecting full year results to be modestly ahead of its previous expectations. 6 McBride plc Half-Year Report 2016 Responsibility statement The Directors confirm that to the best of their knowledge: • the condensed set of financial statements has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 ‘Interim Financial Reporting’ as adopted by the EU; • the interim management report includes a fair review of the information required by: (a)DTR 4.2.7 of the Disclosure and Transparency Rules, being an indication of important events that have occurred during the first six months of the financial year and their impact on the condensed set of financial statements; and a description of the principal risks and uncertainties for the remaining six months of the year; and (b)DTR 4.2.8 of the Disclosure and Transparency Rules, being related party transactions that have taken place in the first six months of the current financial year and that have materially affected the financial position or performance of the entity during that period; and any material changes in the related party transactions described in the last annual report that could do so. On behalf of the Board Rik De Vos Chief Executive Officer Chris Smith Chief Finance Officer 24 February 2016 McBride plc Half-Year Report 2016 7 Independent review report to McBride plc Report on the condensed consolidated interim financial statements Our conclusion We have reviewed the condensed consolidated interim financial statements, defined below, in the half‑year report of McBride plc for the six months ended 31 December 2015. Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the condensed consolidated interim financial statements are not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34, ‘Interim Financial Reporting’, as adopted by the European Union and the Disclosure and Transparency Rules of the United Kingdom’s Financial Conduct Authority. This conclusion is to be read in the context of what we say in the remainder of this report. What we have reviewed The condensed consolidated interim financial statements, which are prepared by McBride plc, comprise: • the condensed interim consolidated income statement and condensed interim consolidated statement of comprehensive income for the period then ended; • the condensed interim consolidated balance sheet as at 31 December 2015; • the condensed interim consolidated statement of cash flows for the period then ended; • the condensed interim consolidated statement of changes in equity for the period then ended; and • the explanatory notes to the condensed interim financial statements. As disclosed in note 1, the financial reporting framework that has been applied in the preparation of the full annual financial statements of the group is applicable law and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the European Union. The condensed interim financial statements included in the half‑year report have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34, ‘Interim Financial Reporting’, as adopted by the European Union and the Disclosure and Transparency Rules of the United Kingdom’s Financial Conduct Authority. What a review of condensed interim financial statements involves We conducted our review in accordance with International Standard on Review Engagements (UK and Ireland) 2410, ‘Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity’ issued by the Auditing Practices Board for use in the United Kingdom. A review of interim financial information consists of making enquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK and Ireland) and, consequently, does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion. We have read the other information contained in the half‑year report and considered whether it contains any apparent misstatements or material inconsistencies with the information in the condensed interim financial statements. Responsibilities for the condensed interim financial statements and the review Our responsibilities and those of the Directors The half‑year financial report, including the condensed interim financial statements, is the responsibility of, and has been approved by, the Directors. The Directors are responsible for preparing the half‑year report in accordance with the Disclosure and Transparency Rules of the United Kingdom’s Financial Conduct Authority. Our responsibility is to express to the Company a conclusion on the condensed interim financial statements in the half‑year report based on our review. This report, including the conclusion, has been prepared for and only for the Company for the purpose of complying with the Disclosure and Transparency Rules of the Financial Conduct Authority and for no other purpose. We do not, in giving this conclusion, accept or assume responsibility for any other purpose or to any other person to whom this report is shown or into whose hands it may come save where expressly agreed by our prior consent in writing.

Basis of preparation McBride plc (‘the Company’) is a company incorporated and domiciled in the United Kingdom. The Company’s ordinary shares are listed on the London Stock Exchange. The registered office of the Company is Middleton Way, Middleton, Manchester M24 4DP. For the purposes of DTR 6.4.2R, the Home State of McBride plc is the United Kingdom. The Company and its subsidiaries (together, ‘the Group’) comprise of the leading European manufacturer and supplier of Co‑manufactured and Private Label products for the Household and Personal Care market. This half‑year report has been prepared in accordance with the Disclosure and Transparency Rules of the United Kingdom Financial Conduct Authority; IAS 34, ‘Interim Financial Reporting’ as adopted by the European Union; on the basis of the accounting policies and the recognition and measurement requirements of IFRS applied in the financial statements at 30 June 2015 and those standards that have been endorsed by the European Union and will be applied at 30 June 2016. This report should be read in conjunction with the financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2015. The results for each half year are unaudited and do not represent the Group’s statutory accounts within the meaning of section 434 of the Companies Act 2006. The interim financial information has been reviewed, not audited. The Group’s statutory accounts were approved by the Directors on 8 September 2015 and have been reported on by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP and delivered to the Registrar of Companies. The report of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP was (i) unqualified, (ii) did not include a reference to any matters to which the auditors drew attention by way of emphasis without qualifying their report and (iii) did not contain a statement under section 498 of the Companies Act 2006. Going concern basis The Group meets its funding requirements through internal cash generation and bank credit facilities, most of which are committed until April 2019. At 31 December 2015, committed undrawn facilities amounted to £102.3 million. The Group’s forecasts and projections, taking account of reasonably possible changes in trading performance, show that the Group will be able to operate comfortably within its current bank facilities. The Group has a relatively conservative level of debt to earnings. As a result, the Directors believe that the Group is well placed to manage its business risks successfully despite the current uncertain economic outlook. After making enquiries, the Directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company and the Group have adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Accordingly, they continue to adopt the going concern basis. The condensed interim consolidated financial statements were approved by the Board on 24 February 2016. 2. Accounting policies The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the annual financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2015, except for: • Defined Benefit Plans: Employee Contributions (Amendments to IAS 19); and • Annual Improvements Projects 2012. All of the above changes to accounting policies will have no material financial effect on the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2016. During the year ended 30 June 2015, management reclassified artwork, design and product testing costs from administrative expenses to cost of sales amounting to £6.1 million. Consequently, the comparative figures for the period ended 31 December 2014 have been adjusted by £2.2 million. Adjusted results The Group believes that adjusted operating profit and adjusted earnings per share provide additional useful information to shareholders on the underlying performance achieved by the Group. These measures are used for internal performance analysis and short‑ and long‑term incentive arrangements for employees. Adjusting items include amortisation of intangible assets, exceptional items, changes in estimates of contingent consideration arising on business combinations, any non‑cash financing costs from unwind of discount on initial recognition of contingent consideration, unwind of discount on provisions and any related tax. McBride plc Half-Year Report 2016 15 Income tax Income tax in the interim period is accrued using the tax rate that would be applicable to the expected annual profit or loss. Accounting standards issued but not yet adopted Recently issued accounting standards that are relevant to the Group but have not yet been adopted are outlined below: • A mendments to IAS 16, ‘Property, plant and equipment’ and IAS 38, ‘Intangible assets’ on depreciation and amortisation; • Amendments to IAS 27, ‘Separate financial statements’ on the equity method; • Amendments to IFRS 10, ‘Consolidated financial statements’ and IAS 28, ‘Investments in associates and joint ventures’; • Annual Improvements 2014; • Amendments to IAS 1, ‘Presentation of financial statements’ on the disclosure initiative; • IFRS 15, ‘Revenue from contracts with customers’; and • IFRS 9, ‘Financial instruments’. 3. Critical accounting judgements and estimates The preparation of the condensed interim financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expense. Actual results may differ from these estimates. In preparing these condensed interim financial statements, the significant judgements made by management in applying the Group’s accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those applied to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2015. 4. Segment information As outlined within the Annual Report and Accounts 2015, the new executive team has been reviewing the implementation of the new strategy and what information should be provided to the Board (Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM)). Currently, the CODM only reviews sales on a product category and geographic basis. It is envisaged that the CODM will commence reviewing segment profitability during 2016, once systems have been re‑configured to capture the required information on a routine basis. On this basis, no segmental profitability has been disclosed for the six month period ended 31 December 2015.

Income tax expense The tax charge reflects an effective tax rate of 30% (30 June 2015: 30%) on adjusted profit before income tax of £13.6 million (30 June 2015: £21.7m). 6. Earnings per ordinary share Basic earnings per ordinary share is calculated by dividing the profit for the period attributable to owners of the Company by the weighted average number of the Company’s ordinary shares in issue during the financial period. The weighted average number of the Company’s ordinary shares in issue excludes 0.6 million shares (2014: 0.6m shares), being the weighted average number of own shares held during the year in relation to employee share schemes.

Exceptional items Exceptional items are presented separately as, due to their nature or the infrequency of the events giving rise to them, this allows users of the financial statements to better understand the elements of financial performance for the year, to facilitate comparison with prior periods, and to assess the trends of financial performance. During the period ended 31 December 2015, the Group recognised no exceptional costs (2015: £0.8m in relation to Classification, Labelling and Packaging). 8.

Financial risk management The Group’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk (including currency risk, fair value interest rate risk, cash flow interest rate risk and price risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. The condensed interim financial statements do not include all financial risk management information and disclosures required in the annual financial statements and they should be read in conjunction with the Group’s annual financial statements as at 30 June 2015. There have been no material changes in the risk management policies since the year end. The table below analyses financial instruments carried at fair value, by valuation method. The different levels have been defined as follows: • Level 1 — unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; • Level 2 — inputs other than Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (prices) or indirectly (derived from prices); and • Level 3 — inputs that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

Financial risk management continued Derivative financial instruments Derivative financial instruments comprise the foreign currency derivatives, non‑deliverable commodity derivatives and interest rate derivatives that are held by the Group in designated hedging relationships. Foreign currency forward contracts are measured by reference to prevailing forward exchange rates. Commodity forward contracts are measured by the difference to prevailing market prices. Foreign currency options are measured using a variant of the Monte Carlo valuation model. Interest rate swaps and caps are measured by discounting the related cash flows using yield curves derived from prevailing market interest rates. Contingent consideration Contingent consideration is measured at fair value based upon management’s estimates of the future sales and profitability of the acquired business. At each reporting date, the Directors estimate the contingent consideration payable in relation to the 70% interest acquired and the liability to acquire the remaining 30% interest. Valuation levels and techniques There were no transfers between levels during the period and no changes in valuation techniques. Financial assets and liabilities measured at amortised cost The fair value of borrowings are as follows: UnauditedUnaudited Audited As at As at As at 31 Dec 31 Dec 30 June 201520142015 £m£m£m Current 29.332.135.1 Non-current 84.7 82.180.6 Total borrowings 114.0114.2115.7 The fair value of the following financial assets and liabilities approximate to their carrying amount: • trade and other receivables; • other current financial assets; • cash and cash equivalents; and • trade and other payables. 10.

Pensions and post‑employment benefits The Group operates a number of post‑employment benefit arrangements. In the UK, the Group operates a Defined Benefit pension scheme and defined contribution schemes. Together, these schemes cover most of the Group’s UK employees. Elsewhere in Europe, the Group has a number of unfunded post‑employment benefit arrangements. At 31 December 2015, the Group recognised a deficit on its UK Defined Benefit pension plan of £30.7 million (30 June 2015: £29.8m). The Group’s post‑employment benefit obligations outside the UK amounted to £1.6 million (30 June 2015: £1.6m). Defined Benefit schemes had the following effect on the Group’s results and financial position: UnauditedUnaudited Audited 6 months 6 months Year ended to 31 Dec to 31 Dec 30 June 201520142015 £m£m£m Profit or loss Service cost and administration expenses (0.9)(0.8) (1.7) Charge to operating profit (0.9)(0.8) (1.7) Net interest cost on Defined Benefit obligation (0.6)(0.6) (1.3) Charge to profit before income tax (1.5) (1.4)(3.0) Other comprehensive expense Net actuarial loss (1.2)(1.7)(2.1) Other comprehensive expense (1.2)(1.7)(2.1) UnauditedUnaudited Audited As at As at As at 31 Dec 31 Dec 30 June 201520142015 £m£m£m Balance sheet Defined Benefit obligations: UK – funded (133.5)(133.0)(135.5) Other – unfunded (1.6)(1.8)(1.6) (135.1)(134.8) (137.1) Fair value of scheme assets 102.8103.3105.7 Deficit on the schemes (32.3)(31.5)(31.4) Following consultation with staff and the UK plan’s Trustees, the UK Defined Benefit plan will cease to be open to future service accrual from 29 February 2016. Staff affected by this change have been offered a new defined contribution scheme from that date. The closure of this plan is one of the key actions in the “Repair” phase to limit the growth of fund liabilities, reducing the risks and uncertainty over future cash costs associated with providing an active Defined Benefit pension scheme. Following the conclusion of the March 2015 triennial valuation, the Company and Trustees have recently agreed a new deficit reduction plan based on the scheme funding deficit of £44.2 million. This will give rise to an increase in the deficit cash funding requirements of £0.4 million to £3.0 million per annum with effect from 31 March 2015. For accounting purposes, the Fund’s benefit obligation as at 31 December 2015 has been calculated based on data gathered for the triennial actuarial valuation as at March 2012 and by applying assumptions made by the Group on the advice of an independent actuary in accordance with IAS 19, ‘Employee benefits’. 20 McBride plc Half-Year Report 2016 Notes to the condensed interim financial statements continued 12. Payments to shareholders Payments to ordinary shareholders are made by way of the issue of B Shares in place of income distributions. Ordinary shareholders are able to redeem any number of the B Shares issued to them for cash. Any B Shares that they retain attract a dividend of 75% of LIBOR on the 0.1 pence nominal value of each share, paid on a twice‑yearly basis. Payments to ordinary shareholders made or proposed in respect of each period were as follows: UnauditedUnaudited Audited 6 months 6 months Year ended to 31 Dec to 31 Dec 30 June 2015(1)2014 2015 Interim 1.2p1.7p1.7p Final n/a n/a1.9p (1)Interim payment to shareholders that is not recognised within these condensed interim consolidated financial statements.

Related party transactions Transactions between the Company and its subsidiaries, which are related parties of the Company, have been eliminated on consolidation and, therefore, are not required to be disclosed in these condensed interim financial statements. Key management compensation and transactions with the Group’s pension and post‑employment schemes for the financial year ended 30 June 2015 are detailed in note 28 (page 108) of McBride plc’s Annual Report and Accounts 2015. A copy of McBride plc’s Annual Report and Accounts 2015 is available on McBride’s website at www.mcbride.co.uk. Although there have been changes to the Executive Leadership Team since the year end, there are no other related party transactions. 14. Key performance indicators (KPIs) Management uses a number of KPIs to measure the Group’s performance and progress against its strategic objectives. The most important of these are noted and defined below: • organic revenue growth – change in revenue adjusted for the effect of exchange rate movements (constant currency); • adjusted operating profit – operating profit before adjusting items; • adjusted operating margin – adjusted operating profit as a percentage of revenue; • labour cost/revenue – labour cost as a percentage of revenue; • customer service level – volume of products delivered in the correct volumes and within agreed timescales as a percentage of total volumes ordered by customers; • adjusted diluted earnings per share – profit attributable to shareholders before adjusting items divided by the weighted average number of ordinary shares used for calculating diluting earnings per share; and • return on capital employed – adjusted operating profit as a percentage of average year‑end net assets excluding net debt.
