Unless otherwise stated, the income statement analysis compares the three months ended 31 March 2024 to the corresponding three months of 2023 and balance sheet analysis as at 31 March 2024 with comparatives relating to 31 December 2023 and 31 March 2023. The abbreviations '£m' and '£bn' represent millions and thousands of millions of Pounds Sterling respectively; the abbreviations '$m' and '$bn' represent millions and thousands of millions of US Dollars respectively; and the abbreviations '€m' and '€bn' represent millions and thousands of millions of Euros respectively.

There are a number of key judgement areas, for example impairment calculations, which are based on models and which are subject to ongoing adjustment and modifications. Reported numbers reflect best estimates and judgements at the given point in time.

Relevant terms that are used in this document but are not defined under applicable regulatory guidance or International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) are explained in the results glossary, which can be accessed at home.barclays/investor-relations.

Consistent with its usual practice, Barclays expects that from time to time over the coming quarter it will meet with investors globally to discuss these results and other matters relating to the Group.

Non-IFRS performance measures

Barclays' management believes that the non-IFRS performance measures included in this document provide valuable information to the readers of the financial statements as they enable the reader to identify a more consistent basis for comparing the businesses' performance between financial periods and provide more detail concerning the elements of performance which the managers of these businesses are most directly able to influence or are relevant for an assessment of the Group. They also reflect an important aspect of the way in which operating targets are defined and performance is monitored by Barclays' management. However, any non-IFRS performance measures in this document are not a substitute for IFRS measures and readers should consider the IFRS measures as well. Refer to the appendix on pages 39 to 43 for definitions and calculations of non-IFRS performance measures included throughout this document, and reconciliations to the most directly comparable IFRS measures.

Forward-looking statements

This document contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the US Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Section 27A of the US Securities Act of 1933, as amended, with respect to the Group. Barclays cautions readers that no forward-looking statement is a guarantee of future performance and that actual results or other financial condition or performance measures could differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements can be identified by the fact that they do not relate only to historical or current facts. Forward-looking statements sometimes use words such as 'may', 'will', 'seek', 'continue', 'aim', 'anticipate', 'target', 'projected', 'expect', 'estimate', 'intend', 'plan', 'goal', 'believe', 'achieve' or other words of similar meaning. Forward-looking statements can be made in writing but also may be made verbally by directors, officers and employees of the Group (including during management presentations) in connection with this document. Examples of forward-looking statements include, among others, statements or guidance regarding or relating to the Group's future financial position, business strategy, income levels, costs, assets and liabilities, impairment charges, provisions, capital leverage and other regulatory ratios, capital distributions (including policy on dividends and share buybacks), return on tangible equity, projected levels of growth in banking and financial markets, industry trends, any commitments and targets (including environmental, social and governance (ESG) commitments and targets), plans and objectives for future operations, and other statements that are not historical or current facts. By their nature, forward-looking statements involve risk and uncertainty because they relate to future events and circumstances. Forward-looking statements speak only as at the date on which they are made. Forward-looking statements may be affected by a number of factors, including, without limitation: changes in legislation, regulations, governmental and regulatory policies, expectations and actions, voluntary codes of practices and the interpretation thereof, changes in IFRS and other accounting standards, including practices with regard to the interpretation and application thereof and emerging and developing ESG reporting standards; the outcome of current and future legal proceedings and regulatory investigations; the Group's ability along with governments and other stakeholders to measure, manage and mitigate the impacts of climate change effectively; environmental, social and geopolitical risks and incidents and similar events beyond the Group's control; the impact of competition in the banking and financial services industry; capital, liquidity, leverage and other regulatory rules and requirements applicable to past, current and future periods; UK, US, Eurozone and global macroeconomic and business conditions, including inflation; volatility in credit and capital markets; market related risks such as changes in interest rates and foreign exchange rates reforms to benchmark interest rates and indices; higher or lower asset valuations; changes in credit ratings of any entity within the Group or any securities issued by it; changes in counterparty risk; changes in consumer behaviour; the direct and indirect consequences of the conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East on European and global macroeconomic conditions, political stability and financial markets; political elections; developments in the UK's relationship with the European Union ("EU"); the risk of cyberattacks, information or security breaches, technology failures or operational disruptions and any subsequent impact on the Group's reputation, business or operations; the Group's ability to access funding; and the success of acquisitions, disposals and other strategic transactions. A number of these factors are beyond the Group's control. As a result, the Group's actual financial position, results, financial and non-financial metrics or performance measures or its ability to meet commitments and targets may differ materially from the statements or guidance set forth in the Group's forward-looking statements. In setting its targets and outlook for the period 2024-2026, Barclays has made certain assumptions about the macroeconomic environment, including, without limitation, inflation, interest and unemployment rates, the different markets and competitive conditions in which Barclays operates, and its ability to grow certain businesses and achieve costs savings and other structural actions. Additional risks and factors which may impact the Group's future financial condition and performance are identified in Barclays PLC's filings with the US Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") (including, without limitation, Barclays PLC's Annual Report on Form 20-F for the financial year ended 31 December 2023), which are available on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov.

Subject to Barclays PLC's obligations under the applicable laws and regulations of any relevant jurisdiction (including, without limitation, the UK and the US) in relation to disclosure and ongoing information, we undertake no obligation to update publicly or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Performance Highlights

In Q124 Barclays delivered a return on tangible equity (RoTE) of 12.3% and a tangible net asset value (TNAV) per share of 335p. RoTE target of greater than 10% in 2024 remains unchanged

C. S. Venkatakrishnan, Group Chief Executive, commented

"In Q124 Barclays delivered a RoTE of 12.3% as we progress towards our targets of >10% RoTE in 2024, and >12% in 2026. We are focused on disciplined execution of the plan that we presented at our Investor Update on 20th February. We have now announced the sale of our performing Italian mortgage book and are investing in our higher returning UK consumer businesses, including through the expected completion of the Tesco Bank acquisition in Q424. We continue to exercise cost discipline and remain well capitalised with a Common Equity Tier 1 (CET1) ratio at the end of the quarter of 13.5%."

• Group cost: income ratio of 60%. Target of c.63% in 2024 remains unchanged

- Delivered £0.2bn of the c.£1bn 2024 gross cost efficiency savings

• Loan loss rate (LLR) of 51bps, within the expected through the cycle range of 50-60bps

• CET1 ratio of 13.5%, in the middle of the target range of 13-14%

• Announced acquisition of Tesco Bank's retail banking business¹, expected to complete in Q424

• Announced sale of the performing Italian mortgage portfolio, expected to complete in Q224

- Barclays UK income decreased 7%, as higher structural hedge income was more than offset by adverse product dynamics in deposits and mortgages, in addition to the transfer of Wealth Management & Investments (WM&I) to Barclays Private Bank and Wealth Management (PBWM)²

- Barclays UK Corporate Bank (UKCB) income decreased 6%, reflecting lower liquidity pool income whilst maintaining stable average deposits

- PBWM income increased 20%, reflecting the transfer of WM&I from Barclays UK, partially offset by lower NII due to adverse deposit dynamics

- IB income decreased 7%. Within Global Markets, strong performance in Equities was more than offset by lower FICC income. In Investment Banking, increased fee income in Debt and Equity capital markets were more than offset by lower fee income in Advisory and lower income in Transaction banking

Group Finance Director's Review

Group performance

• Barclays delivered a profit before tax of £2,277m (Q123: £2,598m), RoTE of 12.3% (Q123: 15.0%) and earnings per share (EPS) of 10.3p (Q123: 11.3p)

• Group income decreased 4% to £6,953m as higher structural hedge income, strong performance in Equities and balance growth in USCB were more than offset by lower FICC income in IB, lower inflation linked income as well as adverse product dynamics in Barclays UK deposits and mortgages

• Group total operating expenses increased to £4,175m (Q123: £4,110m) including the £120m impact of the BoE levy scheme

- Group operating costs decreased 3% to £3,998m, reflecting efficiency savings, partially offset by the impact of inflation, investment spend and business growth

• Credit impairment charges were £513m (Q123: £524m), driven by the anticipated higher delinquencies in USCB, which led to a higher coverage ratio of 11.0% in that portfolio. Total coverage ratio remains stable at 1.4% (December 2023: 1.4%)

• The effective tax rate (ETR) was 20.4% (Q123: 21.6%)

• Attributable profit was £1,550m (Q123: £1,783m)

• Total assets increased to £1,577.1bn (December 2023: £1,477.5bn) driven by an increase in trading securities and secured lending in IB, and an increase in the liquidity pool due to increased deposits

• TNAV per share increased to 335p (December 2023: 331p) as EPS of 10.3p was partially offset by negative cash flow hedge reserve movements of 2p, and net negative other reserve movements

Group capital and leverage

• The CET1 ratio decreased to 13.5% (December 2023: 13.8%) as RWAs increased by £6.9bn to £349.6bn and CET1 capital decreased by £0.2bn to £47.1bn:

- c.40bps increase from attributable profit generated in the quarter

- c.40bps decrease driven by shareholder distributions including the £1.0bn share buyback announced with FY23 results and an accrual towards the FY24 dividend

- c.30bps decrease as a result of a £6.9bn increase in RWAs primarily driven by expected seasonal activity in the Investment Bank and regulatory model changes in Barclays UK which are expected to be partially offset for the full year

• The UK leverage ratio decreased to 4.9% (December 2023: 5.2%) primarily due to a £58.2bn increase in leverage exposure to £1,226.5bn, largely driven by an increase in trading securities and secured lending in Global Markets

Group funding and liquidity

• The liquidity metrics remain well above regulatory requirements, underpinned by well-diversified sources of funding, a stable global deposit franchise and a highly liquid balance sheet

• The liquidity pool was £323.5bn (December 2023: £298.1bn). The increase in the liquidity pool was driven by the expected increase in short term bank deposits after a drop at the year-end and a strong deposit growth in International Corporate Bank which is partially offset by a slight seasonal decline in Barclays UK deposits

• The average¹ Liquidity Coverage Ratio (LCR) increased to 163% (December 2023: 161%), equivalent to a surplus of £117.8bn (December 2023: £117.7bn)

• Total deposits increased by £13.5bn to £552.3bn (December 2023: £538.8bn)

• The average² Net Stable Funding Ratio (NSFR) was 136% (December 2023: 138%), which represents a £160.4bn (December 2023: £167.1bn) surplus above the 100% regulatory requirement

• Wholesale funding outstanding, excluding repurchase agreements, was £190.6bn (December 2023: £176.8bn)

• The Group issued £5.4bn equivalent of minimum requirement for own funds and eligible liabilities (MREL) instruments from Barclays PLC (the Parent company) in Q124. The Group has a strong MREL position with a ratio of 33.4%, which is in excess of the regulatory requirement of 30.1% plus a confidential, institution specific, Prudential Regulation Authority (PRA) buffer

1	Represents average of the last 12 spot month end ratios.
2	Represents average of the last four spot quarter end ratios.

Other matters

• Acquisition of Tesco Bank's retail banking business: on 9 February 2024, Barclays entered into an agreement with Tesco Personal Finance plc (operating using the trading name "Tesco Bank") to acquire its retail banking business. The acquisition is expected to reduce Barclays' CET1 ratio by c.30bps on completion, which is expected to occur in Q424, subject to court sanction and regulatory approvals

• FCA motor finance review: in January 2024, the UK Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) announced that it was appointing a skilled person to undertake a review of the historical use of discretionary commission arrangements and sales in the motor finance market across several firms. The FCA plans to set out next steps on this matter by the end of September 2024. Clydesdale Financial Services Limited (CFS), a member of the Group, ceased operating in the motor finance market in late 2019 but is co-operating fully with the FCA's skilled person review, the outcome of which is unknown, including any potential financial impact. The FCA intervention followed two final decisions by the UK Financial Ombudsman Service (FOS), including one upholding a complaint against CFS in relation to commission arrangements and disclosure in the sale of motor finance products and a number of complaints and court claims, including some against CFS. We have commenced a judicial review challenge to the FOS in the High Court in relation to this decision

• BoE levy scheme: following parliamentary approval, the new levy process commenced in Q124 replacing the Cash Ratio Deposit scheme as a means of funding the Bank of England's monetary policy and financial stability operations. This change in scheme moves the charge from negative income recognised over the course of the year to an annual operating expense at the start of the levy year (running from 1 March to 28 February). Barclays' estimated contribution for the 2024/2025 financial year is £120m, reported in the UK regulatory levies account line, reducing Q124 Group RoTE by c.0.7%. This will be partially offset by increased income of c.£75m through lower funding costs during 2024, with an expected overall net full year Group RoTE impact of c.0.1%. The final charge is expected to be confirmed during Q324

• Disposal of Italian retail mortgages: on 24 April 2024, Barclays announced a transaction under which Barclays Bank Ireland PLC intends to dispose of its performing Italian retail mortgage book currently held in Head Office. The sale is expected to complete in Q224. It is expected to generate a pre-tax loss of c.£225m for the year to 31 December 2024 and reduce RWAs by c.£0.8bn at completion. The transaction is expected to be broadly neutral to Barclays' CET1 ratio

- In addition, Barclays is in discussion with respect to the disposals of the remaining non-performing and Swiss-Franc linked Italian retail mortgage portfolios. Should such sales occur, they are together expected to generate a small pre-tax loss on sale, but also be broadly neutral to Barclays' CET1 ratio

• Sale of German consumer finance business: Barclays is currently engaged in a process to sell its German consumer finance business (comprising credit cards, unsecured personal loans and deposits), held in Head Office, as part of our ambition to simplify Barclays and support our focus on growing our key businesses. The sale is expected to complete in H224, and be accretive to Barclays' CET1 ratio

Barclays UK delivered a RoTE of 18.5% supported by resilient returns and the continued investment in our transformation into a simpler, better and more balanced retail bank.

Income statement - Q124 compared to Q123

• Profit before tax decreased 6% to £705m with a RoTE of 18.5% (Q123: 20.0%)

• Total income decreased 7% to £1,826m. NII decreased 4% to £1,549m, as continued structural hedge momentum was more than offset by mortgage margin pressure and adverse deposit dynamics reflecting wider market trends. Net fee, commission and other income decreased 19% to £277m primarily from the impact of the transfer of WM&I to PBWM

• Total operating expenses decreased 3% to £1,063m driven by the transfer of WM&I to PBWM partially offset by the impact of inflation and the impact of the BoE levy scheme. Ongoing efficiency savings continue to be reinvested, including in our transformation programme to support sustainable improvement to the cost: income ratio

• Credit impairment charges were £58m (Q123: £113m), consistent with low delinquencies in UK cards, high quality mortgage lending portfolio and the improved macroeconomic outlook. UK cards 30 and 90 day arrears remained low at 0.9% (Q123: 0.9%) and 0.2% (Q123: 0.2%) respectively. The UK cards total coverage ratio was 6.5% (December 2023: 6.8%)

Balance sheet - 31 March 2024 compared to 31 December 2023

• Loans and advances to customers at amortised cost decreased by 1% to £200.8bn (December 2023: £202.8bn), reflecting subdued mortgage lending amid lower market demand and continued repayment of government scheme lending in Business Banking

• Customer deposits at amortised cost decreased 2% to £237.2bn (December 2023: £241.1bn), driven by reduced current account balances, reflecting broader market trends. The loan: deposit ratio remained stable at 92% (December 2023: 92%)

IB delivered a RoTE of 12.0% reflecting the benefit of diversified income streams with an increase in Equities and Investment Banking fee income, offset by a decrease in FICC income from lower client activity, lower costs and a net credit impairment release following improvements in macro economic outlook.

Income statement - Q124 compared to Q123

• IB RoTE was 12.0% (Q123: 14.4%) with a profit before tax of £1,339m (Q123: £1,513m)

• Total income decreased 7% to £3,328m

- Global Markets income decreased 8% to £2,287m as a strong performance in Equities was more than offset by lower income in FICC. Equities income increased 25% to £883m, driven by growth in Derivatives, Cash and Prime financing balances, additionally supported by a £125m fair value gain on Visa B shares. FICC income decreased 21% to £1,404m, reflecting lower client activity in Macro and the non-repeat of inflation benefit from prior year, partially offset by strong performance in securitised products

- Investment Banking income decreased 3% to £1,041m

- Investment Banking fee income increased 2% to £617m driven by Equity and Debt capital markets. Equity and Debt capital markets fees increased 36% and 18% respectively, reflecting improved fee pool and market share¹ with Advisory income decreasing 30% against a strong prior year comparator²

- International Corporate Bank income decreased 11% to £424m, mainly driven by Transaction banking which decreased 13% to £382m due to margin compression as customers migrate to higher interest returning products whilst total deposit balances remained stable and lower liquidity pool income. Corporate lending income increased to £42m (Q123: £33m) mainly from lower costs of hedging

• Total operating expenses decreased 2% to £1,999m reflecting efficiency savings, partially offset by the impact of the BoE levy scheme and the impact of inflation

• Credit impairment net release of £10m (Q123: £25m charge), driven by the improved macroeconomic outlook and the benefit of credit protection with limited single name charges in the period

Balance sheet - 31 March 2024 compared to 31 December 2023

• RWAs increased to £200.4bn (December 2023: £197.3bn) driven by expected seasonal activity across Global Markets and Investment Banking

The Group excluding IB and Head Office NIM has decreased 4bps from 4.16% in Q123 to 4.12% in Q124, driven by adverse product dynamics in Barclays UK deposits and mortgages, partially offset by continued structural hedge income momentum across the Group.

The Group's combined product and equity structural hedge notional amount at 31 March 2024 was £243bn (31 December 2023: £246bn), with an average duration of close to 2.5 years. Gross structural hedge contributions of £1,066m (Q123: £773m) and net structural hedge contributions of £(2,097)m (Q123: £(1,709)m) are included in Group net interest income. Gross structural hedge contributions represent the absolute level of interest earned from the fixed receipts on swaps in the structural hedge, while the net structural hedge contributions represent the net interest earned on the difference between the structural hedge rate and prevailing floating rates.

Credit Risk

Loans and advances at amortised cost by geography

Total loans and advances at amortised cost in the credit risk performance section includes loans and advances at amortised cost to banks and loans and advances at amortised cost to customers.

The table below presents a product and geographical breakdown by stages of loans and advances at amortised cost. Also included are stage allocation of debt securities and off-balance sheet loan commitments and financial guarantee contracts by gross exposure, impairment allowance and coverage ratio as at 31 March 2024.

Impairment allowance under IFRS 9 considers both the drawn and the undrawn counterparty exposure. For retail portfolios, the total impairment allowance is allocated to gross loans and advances to the extent allowance does not exceed the drawn exposure and any excess is reported on the liabilities side of the balance sheet as a provision. For corporate portfolios, impairment allowance on undrawn exposure is reported on the liability side of the balance sheet as a provision.

Measurement uncertainty

Scenarios used to calculate the Group's expected credit losses charge were refreshed in Q124 with the Baseline scenario reflecting the latest consensus macroeconomic forecasts available at the time of the scenario refresh. In the Baseline scenario, GDP growth remains weak in the coming quarters and beyond as restrictive monetary policies, which impact economies with a lag, continue to restrain growth. Having peaked in 2022, consumer price inflation in the UK and the euro area eases back to around 2% in 2024. In the US, this adjustment takes a few additional quarters. The UK unemployment rate rises over 2024, and then remains in the 4.5-5.0% range. US unemployment rises to 4.2% at Q324 and then stabilises. With the significant decline in inflationary pressures, major central banks begin to cut rates in Q224. UK house prices remain weak in 2024 before stabilising and resuming the upward trend from 2025. The housing market in the US remains more resilient, with house prices continuing to grow.

In the Downside 2 scenario, inflationary pressures are assumed to intensify again, mainly driven by strong wage growth. Central banks raise rates further, with the UK bank rate and the US federal funds rate each reaching 8.5% in Q424. Major economies experience a rapid tightening of financial conditions alongside a significant increase in market volatility resulting in a sharp repricing of assets and higher credit losses. Central banks are forced to cut interest rates aggressively. Falling demand reduces UK and US GDP and headline inflation drops significantly. In the Upside 2 scenario, a rise in labour force participation and higher productivity contribute to accelerated economic growth without creating new inflationary pressures. With inflation continuing to fall, central banks lower interest rates, further stimulating aggregate demand, leading to reduced unemployment and GDP growth.

The methodology for estimating scenario probability weights involves simulating a range of future paths for UK and US GDP using historical data with the five scenarios mapped against the distribution of these future paths. The median is centred around the Baseline with scenarios further from the Baseline attracting a lower weighting before the five weights are normalised to total 100%. The increases in the Upside scenario weightings were driven by the improvement in GDP in the Baseline scenario, bringing the Baseline scenario closer to the Upside scenarios. For further details see page 30.

The following tables show the key macroeconomic variables used in the five scenarios (5 year annual paths) and the probability weights applied to each scenario.

Regulatory minimum requirements

Capital

The Group's Overall Capital Requirement for CET1 remained 12.0% comprising a 4.5% Pillar 1 minimum, a 2.5% Capital Conservation Buffer (CCB), a 1.5% Global Systemically Important Institution (G-SII) buffer, a 2.6% Pillar 2A requirement and a 0.9% Countercyclical Capital Buffer (CCyB).

The Group's CCyB is based on the buffer rate applicable for each jurisdiction in which the Group has exposures. The buffer rates set by other national authorities for non-UK exposures are not currently material.

The Group's Pillar 2A requirement as per the PRA's Individual Capital Requirement is 4.6% of which at least 56.25% needs to be met with CET1 capital, equating to 2.6% of RWAs. The Pillar 2A requirement, based on a point in time assessment, has been set as a proportion of RWAs and is subject to at least annual review.

The Group's CET1 target ratio of 13-14% takes into account headroom above requirements which includes a confidential institution-specific PRA buffer. The Group remains above its minimum capital regulatory requirements including the PRA buffer.

Leverage

The Group is subject to a UK leverage ratio requirement of 4.1%. This comprises the 3.25% minimum requirement, a G-SII additional leverage ratio buffer (G-SII ALRB) of 0.53% and a countercyclical leverage ratio buffer (CCLB) of 0.3%. The Group is also required to disclose an average UK leverage ratio which is based on capital on the last day of each month in the quarter and an exposure measure for each day in the quarter.

MREL

The Group is required to meet the higher of: (i) two times the sum of 8% Pillar 1 and 4.6% Pillar 2A equating to 25.2% of RWAs; and (ii) 6.75% of leverage exposures. In addition, the higher of regulatory capital and leverage buffers apply. CET1 capital cannot be counted towards both MREL and the buffers, meaning that the buffers, including the above mentioned confidential institution-specific PRA buffer, will effectively be applied above MREL requirements.

In the disclosures that follow, references to CRR, as amended by CRR II, mean the capital regulatory requirements, as they form part of domestic law by virtue of the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018, as amended.

3	As at 31 March 2024, the Group's MREL requirement, excluding the PRA buffer, was to hold £105.2bn of own funds and eligible liabilities equating to 30.1% of RWAs. The Group remains above its MREL regulatory requirement including the PRA buffer.

CET1 capital decreased £0.2bn to £47.1bn (December 2023: £47.3bn), primarily due to:

• £1.8bn of capital generated from profit partially offset by distributions of £1.6bn comprising:

- £1.0bn of share buybacks announced with FY23 results

- £0.3bn accrual towards the FY24 dividend

- £0.3bn of equity coupons paid and foreseen

• £0.4bn decrease in other qualifying reserves including a reduction in the fair value through other comprehensive reserve and vesting of shares in employee share schemes

1	Capital and leverage measures are calculated applying the transitional arrangements of the CRR as amended by CRR II.
2	Fully loaded UK leverage ratio was 4.9%, with £60.2bn of T1 capital and £1,226.3bn of leverage exposure. Fully loaded average UK leverage ratio was 4.7% with £60.3bn of T1 capital and £1,295.4bn of leverage exposure. Fully loaded UK leverage ratios are calculated without applying the transitional arrangements of the CRR as amended by CRR II.
3	Although the leverage ratio is expressed in terms of T1 capital, the leverage ratio buffers and 75% of the minimum requirement must be covered solely with CET1 capital. The CET1 capital held against the 0.53% G-SII ALRB was £6.4bn and against the 0.3% CCLB was £3.7bn.

The UK leverage ratio decreased to 4.9% (December 2023: 5.2%) primarily due to a £58.2bn increase in leverage exposure to £1,226.5bn, largely driven by an increase in trading securities and secured lending in Global Markets.

Appendix: Non-IFRS Performance Measures

The Group's management believes that the non-IFRS performance measures included in this document provide valuable information to the readers of the financial statements, as they enable the reader to identify a more consistent basis for comparing the businesses' performance between financial periods, and provide more detail concerning the elements of performance which the managers of these businesses are most directly able to influence or are relevant for an assessment of the Group. They also reflect an important aspect of the way in which operating targets are defined and performance is monitored by management.

However, any non-IFRS performance measures in this document are not a substitute for IFRS measures and readers should consider the IFRS measures as well.
