Coca-Cola HBC AG

Post 2021 AGM Shareholder Engagement - Update Statement

Zug, Switzerland - 17 December 2021 - In accordance with Provision 4 of the UK Corporate Governance Code, Coca-Cola HBC AG ("Coca-Cola HBC" or the "Company") is providing an update to the statement made on 22 June 2022 in relation to the voting outcomes of Resolution 7 and Resolution 9 (the "Resolutions") at its Annual General Meeting ("AGM") which were advisory votes to approve the Company's UK Remuneration Report and Swiss Remuneration Report respectively.

The Board understands the sensitivities around the issue of executive renumeration and it had consulted with and received the support from its largest shareholders on the decisions made in the months prior to the AGM.

At the AGM, shareholders representing approximately 72% of the votes cast, voted in favour of the Resolutions. Following the AGM, the Company and the Chair of the Remuneration Committee has continued its engagement with shareholders and their proxy advisors on remuneration issues, in particular to understand the reasons why certain shareholders were unable to support these Resolutions.

The Company is grateful to those shareholders that took the time to express their views and understands that shareholders concerns were primarily connected to the adjustment of targets contained in the Company's incentive arrangements, in particular the original targets relating to the 2018 Performance Share Plan awards. Whilst the Remuneration Committee has sought to ensure that these incentive arrangements continued to align with their original intent given the impact of Covid-19, the Remuneration Committee acknowledges that shareholders have a range of views as to the appropriateness of such adjustments. The Remuneration Committee believes that the adjustments made were necessary to retain and incentivise the broader management team, in addition to the executive leadership and CEO. These individuals were directly responsible for navigating the Company through the Covid turbulence and ensuring the resilience and strong recovery of the business.

The Company would like to thank all the shareholders that have taken part in the engagement processes, and for the feedback provided. The Company will continue its constructive dialogue with shareholders and seek to incorporate this feedback into future remuneration decisions.

In accordance with the UK Corporate Governance Code, a further update will be provided in the Company's annual report and accounts published in 2022.
