Challenges and pitfalls
Digital is not just technology Successful adoption needs a new digital value lens across the organisation
Acknowledge unknowns Cutting edge technology is still maturing; not everything will work or succeed
Iterate and pivot Validate business value and adjust based on learnings
Longer-term horizon Focus on the strategic long-term value , not only the cost of the technology
Garbage in, garbage out Volume ≠ quality , even the greatest algorithms are only as good as the data

Appendix 1 Glossary of terms and measures
Except where noted, common terms and measures used in this document are based upon the following definitions: Actual currency/FX Results translated into US dollars at the applicable actual monthly exchange rates ruling in each period. Average Capital Invested (ACI) For a half year: Average Capital Invested (ACI) is a six-month average of capital invested. Full a full year: ACI is a 12-month average of capital invested. Capital invested is calculated as net assets before tax balances, cash and borrowings but after adjustment for actuarial gains and losses and net equity adjustments for equity-settled share-based payments. Brambles Injury Frequency Rate (BIFR) Safety performance indicator that measures the combined number of fatalities, lost time injuries, modified duties and medical treatments per million hours worked. Capital expenditure (capex) Unless otherwise stated, capital expenditure is presented on an accruals basis and excludes intangible assets, investments in associates and equity acquisitions. It is shown gross of any fixed asset disposals proceeds. Growth capex includes the impact of changes in cycle times as well as investments for availability of pooling equipment for existing and new product lines. – Replacement capex = DIN – Growth Capex is total pooling capex less DIN. Cash Flow from Operations Cash flow generated after net capital expenditure but excluding Significant Items that are outside the ordinary course of business. 162

Appendix 1 Glossary of terms and measures (continued)
Except where noted, common terms and measures used in this document are based upon the following definitions: Constant currency/FX Current period results translated into US dollars at the actual monthly exchange rates applicable in the comparable period, so as to show relative performance between the two periods before the translation impact of currency fluctuations. DIN The sum in a period of: – Depreciation expense; – Irrecoverable Pooling Equipment Provision expense; and – Net book value of compensated assets and scraps (disposals). Used as a proxy for the cost of leakage and scraps in the income statement and estimating replacement capital expenditure. Earnings per share (EPS) Profit after finance costs, tax, minority interests and Significant Items, divided by weighted average number of shares on issue during the period. Earnings before interest, tax, Operating profit from continuing operations after adding back depreciation and amortisation and Significant Items outside the depreciation and amortisation ordinary course of business. (EBITDA) Free Cash Flow Cash flow generated after net capital expenditure, finance costs and tax, but excluding the net cost of acquisitions and proceeds from business disposals. Irrecoverable Pooling Equipment Provision held by Brambles to account for pooling equipment that cannot be economically recovered and for which there is no Provision (IPEP) reasonable expectation of receiving compensation. 163
==> picture [482 x 28] intentionally omitted <==
Appendix 1 Glossary of terms and measures (continued)
Except where noted, common terms and measures used in this document are based upon the following definitions: Net new business The sales revenue impact in the reporting period from business won or lost in that period and over the previous financial year, included across reporting periods for 12 months from the date of the win or loss, at constant currency. Operating profit Profit before finance costs and tax, as shown in the statutory financial statements, sometimes called EBIT (Earnings before interest and tax) Organic growth The change in sales revenue in the reporting period resulting from like–for-like sales of the same products with the same customers. Return on Capital Invested (ROCI) For a half year: Underlying Profit multiplied by two to calculate an annualised amount, divided by Average Capital Invested. For a full year: Underlying Profit divided by Average Capital Invested. RPC Reusable plastic/produce crates or containers, used to transport fresh produce; also the name of one of Brambles’ operating segments. Sales revenue Excludes revenues of associates and non-trading revenue. Significant Items Items of income or expense which are, either individually or in aggregate, material to Brambles or to the relevant business segment and: - Outside the ordinary course of business (e.g. gains or losses on the sale or termination of operations, the cost of significant reorganisations or restructuring); or - Part of the ordinary activities of the business but unusual due to their size and nature. Underlying Profit Profit from continuing operations before finance costs, tax and Significant Items. 164
