Turkey:
In FY17 , Turkey operations delivered volume growth of 3.3%, registering the highest growth of the past 5 years. This was mainly driven by Sparkling (up 1.7%), Stills (up 4.1%) and NRTD tea (up 20.7%). Water contracted by 6.8% in FY17, in line with our strategy to improve category profitability. Our initiatives to drive revenue through quality volume growth resulted in positive Sparkling growth for the first time in 5 years. The share of immediate consumption ("IC") packages in the Sparkling category increased to 22% from 20% in FY16, with the number of transactions growing by 9%, outpacing volume growth. Throughout 2017, the launch of the One Brand Strategy, the transition to 330 ml sleek cans and the launch of Fanta Frontier stood out as successful innovations.
In 4Q17 , volume growth in Turkey was 1.9%. The Sparkling category registered 5.7% growth with an accelerated growth of 23.5% in IC packages. The share of IC packages in the Sparkling category increased by 3.7% points year-on-year to 25.7%. The Stills category posted 13.2% growth in the quarter, mainly driven by double-digit growth both in Juice and Ice Tea. Meanwhile, Water contracted by 0.7% with packaging mix evolving in favor of IC packages. NRTD Tea declined by 7.9%, mainly due to the high base of 4Q16.

Operational Overview
International:
In FY17 , our international operations delivered 4.9% volume growth, primarily driven by growth in Kazakhstan, Pakistan, Azerbaijan and Iraq.
-
In Pakistan, volume rose by 3.5%. This was mainly due to our focus on profitable volume growth and price increases in early 2017 for the first time in 3 years, which slowed down overall volume growth. Brand Coca-Cola outperformed the Sparkling category via improved market execution and successful consumer activities such as Coke Studio.
-
Across the Middle East, volume grew by 5.5%, with Iraq posting 5.5% growth, mainly driven by Sparkling. Jordan recorded 5.0% growth for the year.
-
Central Asia registered 7.0% growth, mainly due to strong performance in Kazakhstan and Azerbaijan. Kazakhstan posted 17.5% volume growth, representing a record high volume in the aftermath of the economic slowdown. Strong market execution, successful consumer activities and higher oil prices supporting the economy led to double-digit growth in all categories in Kazakhstan. Azerbaijan, our second largest market in the region, posted 27.2% volume growth, mainly driven by strong growth in the Sparkling category. Turkmenistan registered 45.8% volume contraction due to a worsened macroeconomic backdrop which resulted in limitations on currency convertibility, causing interruptions to our operations.
In 4Q17 , international operations delivered 0.8% volume growth.
-
In Pakistan, volume decreased by 3.7% in 4Q17, cycling 13.1% growth in 4Q16, mainly due to the slowdown impact of price increases, coupled with unfavorable weather conditions and macro uncertainties impacting consumer sentiment.
-
Across the Middle East, volume grew by 3.7%. Iraq posted 4.9% growth driven by the Sparkling category. Jordan recorded a 2.6% contraction, reflecting the weak macroeconomic environment and slowdown in overall consumer spending.

Financial Overview
In FY17,
- Net sales revenue ("NSR") increased by 20.9%, mainly driven by double-digit revenue growth in Turkey operations and positive FX conversion impact of International operations. On an FX-neutral[(1)] basis, consolidated NSR was up by 9.8%, on the back of increasing volume, strong pricing and positive sales mix.
In Turkey, NSR was up by 11.7%, mainly driven by pricing, successful promotion management and improving packaging mix. NSR per unit case maintained its momentum throughout the year, recording 8.1% growth as our revenue growth initiatives continued to deliver solid results.
In our International operations, NSR increased by 30.4% or 7.8% on an FX-neutral basis. Strong volume growth in Central Asia and NSR per unit case growth in Pakistan were the main drivers of topline in 2017, while NSR per unit case was up by 2.8%, on an FX-neutral basis.

Operating expenses as a percentage of revenue declined both in Turkey and in international operations.
-
• EBITDA margin expanded by 68 bps to 16.2% in 2017, reflecting better operating profitability in Turkey and lower OpEx/Sales.

Functional and Presentation Currency
The majority of the consolidated foreign subsidiaries and joint venture are regarded as foreign operations since they are financially, economically and organizationally autonomous. In accordance with “IAS 21 The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates”, there has been a change in the functional currency of the foreign subsidiaries and joint venture from US Dollars ("USD") to the foreign subsidiaries' and joint ventures' local currencies effective from January 1, 2017. This was done considering the multinational structure of foreign operations and realization of most of their operations, by assessing the currency of the primary economic environment of foreign operations, the currency that influences sales prices for goods and services, the currency in which receipts from operating activities are usually retained and the currency that mainly influences costs and other expenses for providing goods and services. The group has applied the change in functional currency prospectively, in accordance with the requirements of IFRS and the relevant Accounting Standards. All assets and liabilities are converted into the new functional currency using the exchange rate at the date of the change. The resulting translated amounts for non-monetary items are treated as their historical cost.
Functional and presentation currency of the Company is Turkish Lira (TL).
