FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE


COCA-COLA ENTERPRISES, INC.
REPORTS FOURTH-QUARTER AND FULL-YEAR 2010 RESULTS

·  
CCE achieves record full-year diluted earnings per common share of $1.83 on a reported basis, or $1.78 excluding the impact of items affecting comparability, and including other pro forma adjustments.

·  
Reported 2010 revenue totaled $6.7 billion, with operating income of $810 million.  Pro forma 2010 revenue totaled $7.4 billion, with operating income of $908 million.

·  
Fourth-quarter diluted earnings per common share were 28 cents on a reported basis, as well as on a pro forma and comparable basis; results were driven by solid volume growth, modest pricing and excellent expense control.

·  
Share repurchase program remains on track, with $200 million of shares purchased during the fourth quarter of 2010 and a continued goal of $1 billion in total purchases by the end of first quarter 2012.

·  
CCE affirms 2011 outlook and expects currency neutral, comparable diluted earnings per common share in a range of $1.95 to $2.00.


ATLANTA, February 11, 2011 – Coca-Cola Enterprises, Inc. (NYSE: CCE) today reported full-year operating income of $810 million, or $908 million on a comparable and pro forma basis, including results from operations in Norway and Sweden. Full-year 2010 diluted earnings per common share were $1.83, or $1.78 on a pro forma and comparable basis.  Items affecting comparability and pro forma adjustments are detailed on page 10 of this release.
 
These results are for the new Coca-Cola Enterprises, Inc., a recently registered public company consisting of legacy CCE’s European bottling operations in Belgium, continental France, Great Britain, Luxembourg, Monaco, and the Netherlands, as well as bottling operations in Norway and Sweden acquired in the fourth quarter of 2010 from The Coca-Cola Company.
 
For the year, pro forma revenue totaled $7.4 billion, while pro forma operating income totaled $908 million. Year over year results for legacy CCE territories – excluding Norway and Sweden – reflect revenue growth of 4 percent and comparable operating income growth of 11½ percent, both on a currency neutral basis.
 
Fourth-quarter diluted earnings per common share were 28 cents on a pro forma and comparable basis. Total fourth-quarter revenue was $1.8 billion with comparable operating income of $144 million.
 
    “We are encouraged by these results, achieved despite ongoing soft macroeconomic conditions and challenging fourth-quarter weather,” said John F. Brock, chairman and chief executive officer.  “We remain focused on our key strategic objectives – building brands, enhancing efficiency, and developing our people – to achieve our goal of driving consistent, value growth.
 
    “We have confidence in our operating plans for 2011 and continue to believe our performance will exceed our long-term targets as we move forward with our share repurchase plan,” Mr. Brock said. “There are significant growth opportunities ahead, and we will seize them through our marketplace experience, operating improvements, ongoing cost controls, and continued brand building.”
 
Operating Review – Legacy Europe
 
Fourth-quarter volume grew 4 percent, reflecting solid growth in all territories. Net pricing per case increased 1 percent, while cost of sales per case increased 2½ percent. Fourth-quarter pricing per case reflects planned increases in promotional activity. For the year, net pricing per case was up 1 percent while cost of sales per case was up ½ percent.
 
Sparkling brands grew 3½ percent in the fourth quarter, including 2½ percent growth in Coca-Cola trademark brands, which was driven by growth in brand Coca-Cola and Coca-Cola Zero. Soft drink flavors increased 6 percent, with solid growth in Dr Pepper, Fanta, Monster, and Sprite.  Still beverages increased 12 percent, reflecting the expanded distribution of Capri Sun and the addition of Ocean Spray.
 
    In Great Britain, volume grew 3½ percent during the quarter primarily through a combination of growth in Coca-Cola trademark brands and in sparkling flavors.  Volume in continental Europe territories increased 5 percent with a balance of sparkling and still beverage growth. A key element of this growth includes continued solid results for Coca-Cola Zero, which was up more than 25 percent.
 
Full-Year 2011 Outlook
 
CCE affirms its previously disclosed expectations for 2011 and expects diluted earnings per common share in a range of $1.95 to $2.00. Revenue is expected to grow in a mid single-digit range, with expected operating income growth in a mid single-digit to high single-digit range. This outlook is comparable, currency neutral, and based on 2010 pro forma financials. Though it is very early to predict the 2011 currency impact accurately, based on recent rates currency would add approximately 4 percent to full-year earnings per share.
 
The company also expects free cash flow of approximately $425 million, with capital expenditures of approximately $400 million.  Weighted average cost of debt is expected to be approximately 3 percent, and the effective tax rate for 2011 is expected to be in a range of 26 percent to 28 percent.
 
Share Repurchase
 
CCE remains on track with plans to repurchase $1 billion of its shares by the end of first quarter 2012. As part of this program, CCE purchased $200 million of its shares during the fourth quarter 2010. Going forward, these plans may be adjusted depending on economic, operating, or other factors, including acquisition opportunities.
 
Conference Call
 
CCE will host a conference call with investors and analysts today at 10 a.m. ET.  The call can be accessed through our website at www.cokecce.com.
 
Coca-Cola Enterprises, Inc. is the leading Western European marketer, distributor, and producer of bottle and can liquid nonalcoholic refreshment and the world’s third-largest independent Coca-Cola bottler.  CCE is the sole licensed bottler for products of The Coca-Cola Company in Belgium, continental France, Great Britain, Luxembourg, Monaco, the Netherlands, Norway, and Sweden.  For more information about our company, please visit our website at www.cokecce.com.

(a)
The non-GAAP financial measure "Bottle and Can Net Pricing Per Case" is used to more clearly evaluate bottle and can pricing trends in the marketplace.  The measure excludes the impact of fountain volume and other items that are not directly associated with bottle and can pricing in the retail environment, and excludes the impact of bottling operations in Norway and Sweden acquired on October 2, 2010.  Our bottle and can sales accounted for approximately 95 percent of our net revenue during 2010.
(b)
The non-GAAP financial measures "Currency-Neutral Bottle and Can Net Pricing Per Case" and "Currency-Neutral Bottle and Can Cost of Sales per Case" are used to separate the impact of currency exchange rate changes on our operations.
(c)
The non-GAAP financial measure "Bottle and Can Cost of Sales Per Case" is used to more clearly evaluate cost trends for bottle and can products.  The measure excludes the impact of fountain ingredient costs as well as marketing credits, and allowsmanagement and investors to gain an understanding of the change in bottle and can ingredient and packaging costs. This measure also excludes the impact of bottling operations in Norway and Sweden acquired on October 2, 2010.
(d)
"Comparable Bottle and Can Volume" excludes the impact of changes in the number of selling days between periods and excludes the impact of the bottling operations in Norway and Sweden acquired on October 2, 2010. The measure is used to analyze the performance of our business on a constant period basis. There was one additional selling day in the fourth quarter of 2010 versus the fourth quarter of 2009.  There were the same amount of selling days during the full year 2010 versus 2009.
(e)
The non-GAAP measure "Free Cash Flow" is provided to focus management and investors on the cash available for debt reduction, dividend distributions, share repurchase, and acquisition opportunities.
(f)
Prior to the fourth quarter of 2010, the free cash flow calculation only includes legacy CCE's European operations and does not include any legacy CCE corporate amounts or amounts related to the bottling operations in Norway and Sweden.
(g)
The non-GAAP measure "Net Debt" is used to more clearly evaluate our capital structure and leverage.
