Directors' report for the year ended 31 December 2012

The Directors submit their report and the audited financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2012.

Principal activities

GlaxoSmithKline Capital plc (the "Company") issues US and Euro Medium Term Notes and provides financing and financial services to fellow subsidiaries of GlaxoSmithKline plc and its subsidiaries (the "Group"). The Directors do not envisage any change to the nature of the business in the foreseeable future.

Review of business

The Company made a profit for the financial year of £4,315,000 (2011: profit of £2,650,000). The Directors are of the opinion that the current level of activity and the year end financial position are satisfactory and will remain so in the foreseeable future.

The profit for the year of £4,315,000 will be transferred to reserves (2011: profit for the year of £2,650,000 transferred to reserves).

All US and Euro Medium Term Notes in issue pay interest on a fixed rate basis.

On 9 May 2012, three new bonds were issued under the US F-3 Shelf Registration programme. The three bonds were a US \$1,000,000,000 (£613,497,000), 0.75 per cent coupon bond maturing in May 2015, a US \$2,000,000,000 (£1,226,994,000), 1.50 per cent coupon bond maturing in May 2017, and a US \$2,000,000,000 (£1,226,994,000), 2.85 per cent coupon bond maturing in 2022. The net proceeds of the issue after discount and fees were US \$4,956,870,000 (£3,041,025,000).

On 18 December 2012, two new Sterling bonds were issued under the European Medium Term Note programme. The two bonds were a £600,000,000, 3.375 per cent coupon bond maturing in December 2027 and an £800,000,000, 4.25 per cent coupon bond maturing in December 2045. The net proceeds of the issuances after discount and fees was £1,377,126,000.

During 2012, two Euro Medium Term Notes were repaid upon maturity. They were a €750,000,000 (£607,698,000) bond repaid on 18 June 2012 and a €2,250,000,000 (£1,817,873,000) bond repaid on 13 December 2012. At 31 December 2011 these notes were classified as due within one year on the Company's balance sheet. At 31 December 2012 there were no remaining loans due within one year on the Company's balance sheet.

Principal risks and uncertainties

The Directors of GlaxoSmithKline plc manage the risks of the Group at a group level, rather than at an individual business unit level. For this reason, the Company's Directors believe that a discussion of the Group's risks would not be appropriate for an understanding of the development, performance or position of the Company's business. The principal risks and uncertainties of the Group, which include those of the Company, are discussed in the Group's 2012 Annual Report which does not form part of this report.

In addition to the financial risk management disclosed in the Treasury policy note on pages 12 and 13 (Note 2), at a Company level, the principal risks and uncertainties relevant to the Group and the Company's business and financial condition and results would include risks from Global and Political Economic Conditions, reliance on Information Technology, and the potential impact of new or revised Accounting Standards.

Directors' report for the year ended 31 December 2012

Global and Political Economic Conditions

Many of the world's largest economies, including the major markets in which the Group operates, and financial institutions have recently faced extreme financial difficulty, including a decline in asset prices, liquidity problems and limited availability of credit. The economic uncertainty of 2011 continued into 2012, particularly in Europe. It is uncertain how long these effects will last, or whether economic and financial trends will worsen or improve. The Group has no control over changes in inflation and interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and controls or other economic factors affecting it or the Company, or the possibility of legal and regulatory changes in jurisdictions in which the Group or the Company operates.

Reliance on Information Technology

The Group is increasingly dependent on information technology systems, including Internet-based systems, for internal communication as well as communication with financial counterparties. Any significant disruption of these systems, whether due to computer viruses or other outside incursions, could materially and adversely affect the Group's and Company's operations.

Compliance with financial reporting and disclosure requirements

New or revised accounting standards, rules and interpretations circulated from time to time by the standard setting board could result in changes to the recognition of income and expense that may adversely impact the Group's and the Company's reported financial results. The Group believes that it complies with the appropriate regulatory requirements concerning its financial statements and disclosures.

Key performance indicators (KPIs)

The Directors of the Group manage the Group's operations on a business sector basis. For this reason, the Company's Directors believe that analysis using key performance indicators for the Company is not necessary or appropriate for an understanding of the development, performance or position of the Company's business. The development, performance and position of the Group are discussed in the Group's 2012 Annual Report which does not form part of this report.

Results and dividends

The Company's results for the financial year are shown in the profit and loss account on page 7.

No dividend is proposed to the holders of Ordinary shares in respect of the year ended 31 December 2012 (2011: £nil).

Directors and their interests

The Directors of the Company who were in office during the year and up to the date of signing the financial statements were as follows:

Edinburgh Pharmaceutical Industries Limited Glaxo Group Limited Mr S P Dingemans

No Director had, during the year or at the end of the year, any material interest in any contract of significance to the Company's business, with the exception of the Corporate Directors, where such an interest may arise in the ordinary course of business.

The following interests of the Directors in office at the year-end in the shares of the ultimate parent undertaking, GlaxoSmithKline plc, have been notified to the Company.

Directors' indemnity

Each of the Directors benefits from an indemnity given by the Company under its articles of association. This indemnity is in respect of liabilities incurred by the Director in the execution and discharge of his duties.

In addition, each of the Directors who is an individual benefits from an indemnity given by another Group company, GlaxoSmithKline Services Unlimited. This indemnity is in respect of liabilities arising out of third party proceedings to which the Director is a party by reason of his engagement in the business of the Company.

Statement of Directors' responsibilities

The Directors are responsible for preparing the Directors' report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations.

Company law requires the Directors to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law the Directors have prepared the financial statements in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law). Under company law the Directors must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Company and of the profit or loss of the Company for that period.

In preparing these financial statements, the Directors are required to:

• select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
• make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and
• state whether applicable UK accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements.

The Directors are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the Company's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

GlaxoSmithKline Capital plc Registered number: (2258699)

Directors' report for the year ended 31 December 2012

Going concern

The Directors believe that preparing the financial statements on the going concern basis is appropriate due to the continued financial support of the intermediate parent company GlaxoSmithKline Finance plc. The Directors have received confirmation that GlaxoSmithKline Finance plc intends to support the Company for at least one year after these financial statements are signed. For this reason, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.

Disclosure of information to auditors

As far as each of the Directors are aware, there is no relevant audit information of which the Company's auditors are unaware, and the Directors have taken all the steps that ought to have been taken to make themselves aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the Company's auditors are aware of that information.

Independent Auditors

PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP are willing to continue in office as auditors and resolutions dealing with their reappointment and remuneration will be proposed at a General Meeting of the Company.

By order of the Board

P Blackburn For and on behalf of Glaxo Group Limited Corporate Director 15 April 2013

Independent auditors' report to the members of GlaxoSmithKline Capital plc

We have audited the financial statements of GlaxoSmithKline Capital plc for the year ended 31 December 2012 which comprise the Profit and Loss Account, the Balance Sheet, the Statement of Total Recognised Gains and Losses, the Cash Flow Statement, and the related notes. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

Respective responsibilities of directors and auditors

As explained more fully in the Directors' Responsibilities Statement set out on page 3, the Directors are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view.

Our responsibility is to audit and express an opinion on the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and International Standards on Auditing (UK and Ireland). Those standards require us to comply with the Auditing Practices Board's Ethical Standards for Auditors.

This report, including the opinions, has been prepared for and only for the Company's members as a body in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006 and for no other purpose. We do not, in giving these opinions, 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.

Scope of the audit of the financial statements

An audit involves obtaining evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements sufficient to give reasonable assurance that the financial statements are free from material misstatement, whether caused by fraud or error. This includes an assessment of: whether the accounting policies are appropriate to the Company's circumstances and have been consistently applied and adequately disclosed; the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by the Directors; and the overall presentation of the financial statements. In addition, we read all the financial and non-financial information in the Directors' Report to identify material inconsistencies with the audited financial statements. If we become aware of any apparent material misstatements or inconsistencies we consider the implications for our report.

Opinion on financial statements

In our opinion the financial statements:

• give a true and fair view of the state of the Company's affairs as at 31 December 2012 and of its profit and cash flows for the year then ended;
• have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and
• have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006.

Opinion on other matters prescribed by the companies Act 2006

In our opinion the information given in the Directors' report for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements.

Matters on which we are required to report by exception

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:

• adequate accounting records have not been kept, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or
• the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or
• certain disclosures of directors' remuneration specified by law are not made; or
• we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.

The Company has passed a resolution in accordance with Section 506 of the Companies Act 2006 that the senior statutory auditor's name should not be stated.

Notes to the financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2012

1 Accounting policies

The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. In addition, the Company has taken advantage of the exemption within FRS 29, 'Financial Instruments: Disclosure' from the disclosure requirements of this standard on the basis that the Company's results are included in the publicly available consolidated financial statements of the GlaxoSmithKline plc and its subsidiaries (the "Group"), which include disclosures that comply with IFRS 7, 'Financial Instruments: Disclosures', which is equivalent to FRS 29.

(a) Basis of accounting

These financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis, due to continued financial support from the intermediate parent company, GlaxoSmithKline Finance plc, under the historical cost convention, the accounting policies set out below, which have been applied consistently, and in accordance with the Companies Act 2006 and applicable UK Accounting Standards.

(b) Foreign currency transactions

Foreign currency transactions are booked in local currency at the exchange rate ruling on the date of the transaction. Foreign currency monetary assets and liabilities are retranslated into local currency at rates of exchange ruling at the balance sheet date. Exchange differences are included in operating profit/(loss).

(c) Dividends paid and received

Interim dividends paid and received are included in the profit and loss account in the year in which the related dividend is actually paid or received. Final dividends are recorded in the profit and loss account upon shareholder approval.

(d) Interest

Interest receivable and similar income and interest payable and similar charges are recognised on an accruals basis.

(e) Bond expenses

Bond expenses are included as a component of the debt principal and are amortised using the effective interest rate over the term of the debt.

(f) Expenditure

Expenditure is recognised in respect of goods and services received when supplied in accordance with contractual terms. A provision is made when an obligation exists for a future liability in respect of a past event and where the amount of the obligation can be reliably estimated.

(g) Debt instruments

Debt instruments are stated at the amount of net proceeds adjusted to amortise the finance cost of debt using the effective interest rate method over the term of the debt.

(h) Taxation

Current tax is provided at the amounts expected to be paid applying tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date.

The Company accounts for taxation which is deferred or accelerated by reason of timing differences which have originated but not reversed by the balance sheet date. Deferred tax assets are recognised when recoverable, when, on the basis of all available evidence, it can be regarded as more likely than not that

Notes to the financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2012

there will be suitable taxable profits from which the future reversal of underlying timing differences can be deducted.

Deferred tax is measured at the average tax rates that are expected to apply in the periods in which the timing differences are expected to reverse based on tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date. Deferred tax liabilities and assets are not discounted.

2 Treasury policies

Corporate Treasury policies noted below are those operated by GlaxoSmithKline Capital plc.

The Company's role in managing the Group's objectives is primarily to manage the Group's external funding requirements and the resulting financial risk. The Company's ultimate parent undertaking, GlaxoSmithKline plc, is a UK-based business, reporting in Sterling and paying dividends out of Sterling profits.

The role of Corporate Treasury is to monitor and manage the Group's external and internal funding requirements and financial risks in support of the Group's strategic objectives. Treasury activities are governed by policies and procedures approved by the Group's Board of Directors, most recently on 11 July 2012. A Treasury Management Group (TMG) meeting chaired by the Group's Chief Financial Officer, takes place on a monthly basis to review treasury activities. Its members receive management information relating to treasury activities. The Group maintains Treasury control systems and procedures to monitor foreign exchange, interest rate, liquidity, credit and other financial risks.

(a) Capital management

The capital structure of the Group is managed through an appropriate mix of debt and equity in order to optimise returns to shareholders whilst maintaining credit ratings that provide the Company with flexibility to access debt capital markets on attractive terms.

(b) Liquidity

The Group's policy is to borrow centrally in order to meet anticipated funding requirements. The cash flow forecast and funding requirements are monitored by the TMG on a monthly basis. The Group's strategy is to diversify liquidity sources using a range of facilities and to maintain broad access to funding markets.

The Group has a European Medium Term Note programme of £15 billion and at 31 December 2012, £7.0 billion of notes were in issue under this programme. The Group also has a US F-3 shelf registration statement and at 31 December 2012, \$15.0 billion (£9.2 billion) of notes were in issue under this programme. The Group's long-term borrowings mature at dates between 2014 and 2045.

(c) Treasury operations

The objective of treasury activity is to manage the post-tax net cost or income of financial operations to the benefit of Group earnings. Corporate Treasury does not operate as a profit centre.

The Group uses a variety of financial instruments to finance its operations and derivative financial instruments to manage market risks from these operations. These derivatives, principally comprising forward foreign currency contracts, interest rate and currency swaps, are used to swap borrowings and liquid assets into currencies required for Group purposes and to manage exposure to financial risks from changes in foreign exchange and interest rates.

The Group balances the use of borrowings and liquid assets having regard to:

• the cash flow from operating activities and the currencies in which it is earned;
• the tax cost of intra-group distributions;
• the currencies in which business assets are denominated; and
• the post-tax cost of borrowings compared to the post-tax return on liquid assets.

Notes to the financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2012

Liquid assets surplus to the immediate operating requirements of Group companies are invested and managed centrally by Corporate Treasury. Requirements of Group companies for operating finance are met whenever possible from central resources.

External borrowings are managed by Corporate Treasury which comprise a portfolio of long and mediumterm instruments in addition to short-term finance.

The Group does not hold or issue derivatives for speculative purposes. The Group's Treasury policies specifically prohibit such activity. All transactions in financial instruments are undertaken to manage the risks arising from underlying business activities, not for speculation.

(d) Interest rate risk management

The Group's objective is to reduce its effective net interest cost and to rebalance the mix of debt at fixed and floating interest rates over time. The policy on interest rate risk management limits the amount of floating interest payments to a prescribed percentage of operating profit. At 31 December 2012, £nil (31 December 2011: £nil) of the Company's net borrowings were exposed to floating interest rates after the effects of hedging.

(e) Foreign exchange risk management

In order to reduce foreign currency translation exposure, the Group seeks to denominate borrowings in the currencies of its principal assets and cash flows. These are primarily denominated in US dollars, Euros and Sterling. Certain borrowings can be swapped into other currencies as required for Group purposes.

(f) Counterparty risk management

The Group sets global counterparty limits for each of its banking and investment counterparties based on long-term credit ratings from Moody's and Standard and Poor's. Corporate Treasury's usage of these limits is monitored daily by a Corporate Compliance Officer (CCO) who operates independently of Corporate Treasury. Any breach of these limits would be reported to the CFO immediately.

The CCO also monitors the credit rating of these counterparties and, when changes in ratings occur, notifies Corporate Treasury so that changes can be made to investment levels or to authority limits as appropriate. In addition, a report on relationship banks and their credit ratings is presented annually to the TMG for approval and reviewed regularly.

The tax assessed for the year is lower (2011: lower) than the standard rate of corporation tax in the UK for the year ended 31 December 2012 of 24.5% (2011: 26.5%). The differences are explained below:

Reconciliation of current tax charge	£'000	£'000

Effects of:

Other timing differences	(105)	(115)
Current tax charge for the year	1,304	853

The main rate of UK corporation tax reduced from 26% to 24% with effect from 1 April 2012. Legislation to reduce further the main rate of corporation tax from 24% to 23% from 1 April 2013 was included in the Finance Act 2012. These tax changes became substantively enacted on 26 March 2012 and 3 July 2012 respectively, and hence the effect of the changes on the deferred tax balances has been included in the figures above.

The Chancellor also proposed changes to reduce further the main rate of UK corporation tax from 23% to 21% from 1 April 2014 and to 20% from 1 April 2015, on 5 December 2012 and 20 March 2013 respectively. These changes have not yet been substantively enacted and therefore are not included in the figures above.

Notes to the financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2012

The overall effect of the further changes from 23% to 20%, if these applied to the deferred tax balance at 31 December 2012, would be to reduce the deferred tax asset by approximately £39,000.

Notes to the financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2012

• Short-term loans and overdrafts approximates to the carrying amount because of the short maturity of these instruments;
• Medium term loans market value based on quoted market prices in the case of the US and Euro Medium Term Notes and other fixed rate borrowings; approximates to the carrying amount in the case of floating rate bank loans and other loans;
• Debtors and creditors approximates to the carrying amount.
