​

existing standards effective January 1, 2023 have had or are expected to have a material impact for the Group. The Directors’ assessment of the impact of new standards, which are not yet effective and which have not been early adopted by the Group, on the consolidated interim financial statements is on-going, but is not expected to have a material impact for the Group.

4. Segment analysis

The Group’s two operating and reportable segments, Europe and Americas, reflect the basis on which the Group’s performance is reviewed by management and presented to the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”). The CODM has been identified as being the Board and Chief Financial Officer.

​

Performance of the Group is assessed based on Adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA is the profit or loss for the period before income tax charge or credit, net finance income or expense, depreciation and amortization and exceptional operating items. Other items are not allocated to segments, as these are reviewed by the CODM on a group-wide basis. Segmental revenues are derived from sales to external customers. Inter-segment revenue is not material.

Within each reportable segment our respective packaging containers have similar production processes and classes of customers. Further, they have similar economic characteristics, as evidenced by similar profit margins, similar degrees of risk and similar opportunities for growth. Based on the foregoing, we do not consider that they constitute separate product lines and, therefore, additional disclosures relating to product lines are not necessary.

7. (Loss)/earnings per share

Basic (loss)/earnings per share (“EPS”) is calculated by dividing the (loss)/profit for the period attributable to equity holders by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period.

The following table reflects the income statement (loss)/profit and share data used in the basic EPS calculations:

​

​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​
​ | ​ | Three months ended June 30, | ​ | Six months ended June 30,

In February 2023, the Group completed the acquisition of a majority share in NOMOQ AG (“NOMOQ”), a start-up digital can printer based in Zurich, Switzerland, for an initial consideration of €15 million, with a further €10 million payable in 2024, subject to NOMOQ achieving certain milestones. Net of €15 million cash acquired; the transaction did not result in a cash outflow for the Group. These consolidated financial statements include management’s preliminary estimate of the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. In conjunction with this transaction, the Group has entered into put and call option arrangements for the acquisition of the outstanding non-controlling interest (“NCI”), part of which are treated as a compensation arrangement for accounting purposes, and could result in future payments to the holders of such NCI, depending on the future performance of NOMOQ. An initial estimate of the fair value of such obligation, which has been reflected in other reserves and other liabilities and provisions, respectively, has been calibrated such that the present value of the liability is equal to the fair value of the NCI that is subject to the put and call arrangement as of the valuation date.

​

At June 30, 2023, the carrying amount of goodwill included within intangible assets was $990 million (December 31, 2022: $976 million).

At June 30, 2023, the carrying amount of the right-of-use assets included within property, plant and equipment was $397 million (December 31, 2022: $327 million).

The Group recognized a depreciation charge of $128 million in the six months ended June 30, 2023 (2022: $104 million), of which $32 million (2022: $26 million) relates to right-of-use assets.

Impairment test for goodwill

Goodwill is not subject to amortization and is tested annually for impairment following the approval of the annual budget (normally at the end of the financial year), or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate a potential impairment.

Management has considered whether any impairment indicators existed at the reporting date, and has concluded that the carrying amount of the goodwill is fully recoverable as at June 30, 2023.

Fair value methodology

There has been no change to the fair value hierarchies for determining and disclosing the fair value of financial instruments.

Fair values are calculated as follows:

(i) | Senior Secured Green and Senior Green Notes – the fair value of debt securities in issue is based on valuation techniques in which all significant inputs are based on observable market data and represent Level 2 inputs.

(ii) | Global Asset Based Loan Facility and other borrowings – the fair values of the borrowings in issue is based on valuation techniques in which all significant inputs are based on observable market data and represent Level 2 inputs.

(iii) | Cross currency interest rate swaps (“CCIRS”) – The fair values of the CCIRS are based on quoted market prices and represent Level 2 inputs.

(iv) | Commodity and foreign exchange derivatives – the fair value of these derivatives are based on quoted market prices and represent Level 2 inputs.

(v) | Earnout Shares, Private Warrants and Public Warrants – the fair values of the Earnout Shares and Private Warrants are based on valuation techniques using an unobservable volatility assumption which represents Level 3 inputs, whereas the fair value of the Public Warrants is based on an observable market price and represents a Level 1 input.

​

Foreign currency derivative financial instruments

The Group operates in a number of currencies and, accordingly, hedges a portion of its currency transaction risk. Cash of $1 million was received and cash of $11 million was paid in respect of hedging in the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 respectively (2022: $20 million and $30 million recieved) and is presented as settlement of foreign currency derivative instruments in the unaudited consolidated interim statement of cash flows.

Cross currency interest rate swaps

​

In the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Group entered into a series of CCIRS, swapping $300 million into synthetic GBP debt. These CCIRS were designated as hedge accounting arrangements to hedge certain portions of it borrowings and interest thereon, and had a net liability position of $12 million at June 30, 2023.

​

11. Employee benefit assets and obligations

Employee benefit assets and obligations at June 30, 2023 have been reviewed in respect of the latest discount rates, inflation rates and asset valuations. A net re-measurement loss of $7 million and $8 million (2022: gain of $24 million and $52 million) has been recognized in the unaudited consolidated interim statement of comprehensive income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively.

The re-measurement loss recognized for the three months ended June 30, 2023 consisted of a decrease in the asset valuations of $14 million (2022: decrease of $59 million), partly offset by a decrease in the obligations of $7 million (2022: decrease of $83 million).

The re-measurement loss recognized for the six months ended June 30, 2023 consisted of a decrease in asset valuations of $7 million (2022: decrease of $95 million) and an increase in the obligations of $1 million (2022: decrease of $147 million).

Other liabilities

Earnout shares

AGSA has a contingent right to receive up to 60.73 million additional shares in the Company (the “Earnout Shares”). The Earnout Shares are issuable by AMP to AGSA subject to attainment of certain share price hurdles, with equal amounts of shares at $13, $15, $16.50, $18, and $19.50, respectively, over a five-year period ending on January 31, 2027. In accordance with IAS 32 ‘Financial Instruments: Presentation’, the arrangement has been assessed to determine whether the Earnout Shares represent a liability or an equity instrument. As the arrangement may result in AMP issuing a variable number of shares in the future, albeit capped at a total of 60.73 million shares, the Earnout Shares have, in accordance with the requirements of IAS 32, been recognized as a financial liability measured at fair value in the consolidated interim financial statements. A valuation assessment was performed for the purpose of determining the financial liability using a Monte Carlo simulation using key data inputs for: share price hurdles; risk-free rate (4%); and traded closing AMP share price, with estimates of volatility (50%) (December 31, 2022: volatility 50%) and dividend yield. The estimated valuations of the liability at June 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022, were $27 million and $76 million, respectively. Changes in the fair market valuation of the Earnout Shares of $49 million have been reflected as exceptional finance income within net finance expense for the six months ended June 30, 2023 (June 30, 2022: $130 million). Any increase or decrease in volatility of 5% would result in an increase or decrease in the liability as at June 30, 2023, of approximately $10 million (December 31, 2022: $17 million).

Warrants

AMP warrants are exercisable for the purchase of ordinary shares in AMP at an exercise price of $11.50 over a five-year period. In accordance with IAS 32, those warrants have been recognized as a financial liability measured at fair value in the consolidated interim financial statements. For certain warrants issued to the former sponsors of Gores Holdings V, Inc. (“Private Warrants”) a valuation was performed for the purpose of determining the financial liability. The valuation applied a Black Scholes model, using a key data input for the risk-free rate (4%), with estimates for volatility (50%) (December 31, 2022: volatility 50%) and dividend yield. All other outstanding warrants (“Public Warrants”) were valued using the traded closing prices of the AMP warrants. The estimated valuations of the liability at June 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022, were $2 million and $7 million, respectively. Changes in the valuation of the Public and Private Warrants of $5 million have been reflected as exceptional finance income within net finance expense for the six months ended June 30, 2023 (June 30, 2022: $16 million). Any increase or decrease in volatility of 5% would not result in a significant change in the fair value of the Private Warrants at June 30, 2023 (December 31, 2022: $1 million).

Please refer to note 8 – Intangible assets and property, plant and equipment and note 5 – Exceptional Items for further information on the NOMOQ acquisition and the Weissenthurm provision respectively.

17. Contingencies

Environmental issues

The Group is regulated under various national and local environmental, occupational health and safety and other governmental laws and regulations relating to:

| ● | the operation of installations for manufacturing of metal packaging and surface treatment using solvents;

| ● | the generation, storage, handling, use and transportation of hazardous materials;

| ● | the emission of substances and physical agents into the environment;

| ● | the discharge of waste water and disposal of waste;

| ● | the remediation of contamination;

| ● | the design, characteristics, collection and recycling of its packaging products; and

| ● | the manufacturing and servicing of machinery and equipment for the metal packaging industry.

The Group believes, based on current information, that it is in substantial compliance with applicable environmental laws and regulations and permit requirements. It does not believe it will be required, under existing or

​

anticipated future environmental laws and regulations, to expend amounts, over and above the amounts accrued, which will have a material effect on its business, financial condition or results of operations or cash flows. In addition, no material proceedings against the Group arising under environmental laws are pending. Finally, the Group believes that the potential impact of climate change on the Group has not resulted in a contingent obligation at June 30, 2023.

Legal matters

The Group is involved in certain legal proceedings arising in the normal course of its business. The Group believes that none of these proceedings, either individually or in aggregate, are expected to have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Other matters

On March 28, 2023, the Brazilian beverages company, Grupo Petrópolis, which is a customer of AMPSA, filed for a court-supervised reorganization. The Group has assessed the impact of the Grupo Petrópolis filing and concluded that there is no impact on the statement of financial position for the six months ended June 30, 2023.

18. Seasonality of operations

The Group’s revenue and cash flows are both subject to seasonal fluctuations, with the Group generally building inventories in anticipation of these seasonal demands resulting in working capital requirements typically being the greatest at the end of the first quarter of the year.

The demand for our metal beverage products is strongest during spells of warm weather and therefore demand typically peaks during the summer months, as well as in the period leading up to holidays in December.

The Group manages the seasonality of working capital principally by supplementing operating cash flows with drawings under our Global Asset Based Loan Facility.

19. Events after the reporting period

On July 25, 2023, the Board approved an interim cash dividend of $0.10 per ordinary share. The interim cash dividend will be paid on September 28, 2023 to shareholders of record on September 14, 2023.

On July 25, 2023, the Board approved an interim cash dividend on the annual 9% dividend of the preferred shares. The interim cash dividend will be paid on September 28, 2023 to shareholders of record on September 14, 2023.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion should be read together with, and is qualified in its entirety by, reference to the Unaudited Consolidated Interim Financial Statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, including the related notes thereto. As used in this section, the “Group” refers to Ardagh Metal Packaging S.A. and its subsidiaries.

Some of the measures used in this report are not measurements of financial performance under IFRS and should not be considered an alternative to cash flow from operating activities as a measure of liquidity or an alternative to operating profit or (loss)/profit for the period as indicators of our operating performance or any other measures of performance derived in accordance with IFRS.

Business drivers

​

The main factors affecting the results of the Group’s operations are: (i) global economic trends and end-consumer demand for our products and production capacity of our production facilities; (ii) prices of raw materials and energy used in our business, primarily aluminum, steel, and coatings, and our ability to pass through these and other cost increases to our customers, through contractual pass through mechanisms under multi-year contracts, or through renegotiation in the case of short-term contracts; (iii) investment in capacity expansion and operating cost reductions; (iv) acquisitions; and (v) foreign exchange rate fluctuations and currency translation risks arising from various currency exposures, primarily with respect to the euro, U.S. dollar, British pound, Polish zloty and Brazilian real.

AMP

​

AMP generates its revenue from supplying metal can packaging to the beverage end-use category. Revenue is primarily dependent on sales volumes and sales prices.

Sales volumes are influenced by a number of factors, including factors driving customer demand, seasonality and the capacity of our metal beverage packaging plants. Demand for our metal beverage cans may be influenced by trends in the consumption of beverages, industry trends in packaging, including customer marketing and pricing conditions, and the impact of environmental regulations and shifts in consumer sentiment towards a greater awareness of sustainability. The demand for our beverage products is strongest during spells of warm weather and therefore demand typically, based on historical trends, peaks during the summer months, as well as in the period leading up to the holidays in December. Accordingly, we generally build inventories in the first and fourth quarter in anticipation of the seasonal demands in our beverage business.

Our Adjusted EBITDA is based on revenue derived from selling our metal beverage cans and is affected by a number of factors, primarily cost of sales. The elements of our cost of sales include (i) variable costs, such as, raw materials (including the cost of aluminum), packaging materials, decoration and freight and other distribution costs; and (ii) fixed costs, such as labor and other plant-related costs including depreciation and maintenance. In addition sales, marketing and administrative costs also impact Adjusted EBITDA. Our variable costs have typically constituted approximately 75% and fixed costs approximately 25% of the total cost of sales for our business.

​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​

Revenue

Revenue in the three months ended June 30, 2023 decreased by $48 million, or 4%, to $1,255 million, compared with $1,303 million in the three months ended June 30, 2022. The decrease in revenue is primarily driven by the pass through to customers of lower input costs and unfavorable volume/mix effects (lower ends volume).

Cost of sales

Cost of sales in the three months ended June 30, 2023 increased by $7 million, or 1%, to $1,146 million, compared with $1,139 million in the three months ended June 30, 2022. Pre-exceptional cost of sales decreased by $14 million, or 1% from the prior period. The decrease in pre-exceptional cost of sales is principally due to decreased revenue as noted above and lower input costs. Further analysis of the movements in exceptional items is set out in the “Supplemental Management’s Discussion and Analysis” section.

Gross profit

​

Gross profit in the three months ended June 30, 2023 decreased by $55 million, or 34%, to $109 million, compared with $164 million in the three months ended June 30, 2022. Gross profit percentage in the three months ended June 30, 2023 decreased by 390 basis points to 8.7%, compared with 12.6% in the three months ended June 30, 2022. Excluding exceptional cost of sales, gross profit percentage in the three months ended June 30, 2023 decreased by 220 basis points to 11.6% compared with 13.8% in the three months ended June 30, 2022, as a result of the items outlined above in revenue and cost of sales. Further analysis of the movements in exceptional items is set out in the “Supplemental Management’s Discussion and Analysis” section.

Sales, general and administration expenses

Sales, general and administration expenses in the three months ended June 30, 2023 increased by $6 million, or 11%, to $63 million, compared with $57 million in the three months ended June 30, 2022. The increase in sales, general and administration expenses was primarily due to higher external consulting costs and salary accruals. Excluding exceptional items, sales, general and administration expenses increased by $7 million. Exceptional sales, general and administration expenses decreased by $1 million, due to lower transaction-related and other costs.

​

Intangible amortization

Intangible amortization in the three months ended June 30, 2023 of $35 million is consistent with the three months ended June 30, 2022.

Operating profit

Operating profit in the three months ended June 30, 2023 decreased by $61 million, or 85% to $11 million, compared with an operating profit of $72 million in the three months ended June 30, 2022, due to lower gross profit and higher sales, general and administration expenses as outlined above.

Net finance (expense)/income

​

Net finance expense in the three months ended June 30, 2023 increased by $63 million to $23 million compared with $40 million net finance income in the three months ended June 30, 2022. Net finance expense/(income) in the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 comprised the following:

​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​
​ | ​ | Unaudited
​ | ​ | (in $ millions)
​ | ​ | Three months ended June 30,
​ | ​ | 2023 |  | 2022

Net finance expense before exceptional items | ​ | 49 | ​ | 34
Exceptional finance income |  | (26) |  | (74)
Net finance expense/(income) | ​ | 23 | ​ | (40)

​

​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​

Interest expense in the three months ended June 30, 2023, increased by $8 million to $33 million, compared with $25 million in the three months ended June 30, 2022. The increase primarily relates to interest expense on the 6.000% Senior Secured Green Notes due 2027 that were issued on June 8, 2022.

​

Gains on derivative financial instruments in the three months ended June 30, 2023 amounted to $1 million, compared with $nil in the same period in 2022. The gain is related to the Group’s cross currency interest rate swaps (“CCIRS”).

​

Foreign currency translation losses in the three months ended June 30, 2023 decreased by $1 million, to $2 million, compared with $3 million in the three months ended June 30, 2022, driven by foreign exchange rate fluctuations, primarily the U.S. dollar.

Exceptional finance income in the three months ended June 30, 2023 of $26 million primarily includes gains of $25 million and $2 million on movements in the fair market values and foreign currency, on the Earnout Shares and Warrants, respectively. Exceptional finance income for the three months ended June 30, 2022 of $74 million includes a net $90 million gain and a net $16 million loss on movements in the fair market values and foreign currency, on the Earnout Shares and Warrants, respectively.

Income tax credit/(charge)

Income tax credit in the three months ended June 30, 2023 of $2 million, is a movement of $14 million from an income tax charge of $12 million in the three months ended June 30, 2022. The movement of $14 million in the income tax charge is primarily due to a $16 million decrease in income tax charge on profit before exceptional items, attributable to the decrease in profit before exceptional items in the three months ended June 30, 2023, partially offset by a $2 million decrease in exceptional tax credits in the three months ended June 30, 2023.

The effective income tax rate (“ETR”) on profit before exceptional items for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was 0%, compared with a tax rate of 28% for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The decrease in ETR primarily relates to the decrease in profit before exceptional items, resulting in a profit before exceptional items of $2 million and $nil income tax charge in the three months ended June 30, 2023.

(Loss)/profit for the period

As a result of the items described above, the Group recognized a loss of $10 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, compared with a profit of $100 million in the three months ended June 30, 2022.

Six months ended June 30, 2023 compared with six months ended June 30, 2022:

Cost of sales

Cost of sales in the six months ended June 30, 2023 increased by $25 million, or 1%, to $2,164 million, compared with $2,139 million in the six months ended June 30, 2022. The increase in cost of sales is principally due to higher exceptional cost of sales. Further analysis of the movements in exceptional items is set out in the “Supplemental Management’s Discussion and Analysis” section.

Gross profit

​

Gross profit in the six months ended June 30, 2023 decreased by $79 million, or 26%, to $222 million, compared with $301 million in the six months ended June 30, 2022.

This increase in pre-exceptional sales, general and administration expenses was due to higher external consulting costs and salary accruals. Exceptional sales, general and administration expenses increased by $4 million, primarily due to a legal settlement in the current year of $6 million.

Intangible amortization

Intangible amortization in the six months ended June 30, 2023 decreased by $1 million, or 1%, to $70 million, compared with $71 million in the six months ended June 30, 2022, primarily due to foreign exchange effects.

​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​
​ | ​ | Unaudited
​ | ​ | (in $ millions)
​ | ​ | Six months ended June 30,
​ | ​ | 2023 |  | 2022

Net finance expense before exceptional items | ​ | 99 | ​ | 62
Exceptional finance income | ​ | (53) | ​ | (125)
Net finance expense/(income) |  | 46 |  | (63)

​

Interest expense in the six months ended June 30, 2023, increased by $18 million to $66 million, compared with $48 million in the six months ended June 30, 2022. The increase primarily relates to interest expense on the 6.000% Senior Secured Green Notes due 2027 that were issued on June 8, 2022.

​

Losses on derivative financial instruments in the six months ended June 30, 2023 amounted to $3 million compared with $nil in the same period in 2022. The loss is related to the Group’s CCIRS.

​

Foreign currency translation losses in the six months ended June 30, 2023 were $4 million in the six months ended June 30, 2022 which is in line with the prior period.

Exceptional finance income in the six months ended June 30, 2023 of $53 million primarily includes gains of $49 million gain and $5 million on movements in the fair market values and foreign currency, on the Earnout Shares and Warrants, respectively. Exceptional finance income for the six months ended June 30, 2022 of $125 million includes a net $146 million gain and a net $21 million loss on movements in the fair market values and foreign currency, on the Earnout Shares and Warrants, respectively.

​

Income tax credit/(charge)

Income tax credit in the six months ended June 30, 2023 of $11 million, is a movement of $30 million from an income tax charge of $19 million in six months ended June 30, 2022. The movement of $30 million in the income tax charge is due to a $30 million decrease in income tax charge on profit before exceptional items, primarily attributable to the decrease in profit before exceptional items in the six months ended June 30, 2023.

The ETR on loss before exceptional items for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was 31%, compared with a tax rate of 28% on profit before exceptional items for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The increase in ETR primarily relates to changes in profitability mix in the six months ended June 30, 2023.

(Loss)/profit for the period

As a result of the items described above, the Group recognized a loss of $11 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared with a profit of $157 million in the six months ended June 30, 2022.

Supplemental Management’s Discussion and Analysis

Key operating measures

Adjusted EBITDA consists of (loss)/profit for the period before income tax credit/(charge), net finance expense/(income), depreciation and amortization and exceptional operating items. We use Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate and assess our segment performance. Adjusted EBITDA is presented because we believe that it is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in evaluating companies in the packaging industry. However, other companies may calculate Adjusted EBITDA in a manner different from ours. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of financial performance under IFRS and should not be considered an alternative to (loss)/profit as indicators of operating performance or any other measures of performance derived in accordance with IFRS.

For a reconciliation of the (loss)/profit for the period to Adjusted EBITDA see Note 4 – Segment analysis of the Unaudited Consolidated Interim Financial Statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023.

Adjusted EBITDA in the three months ended June 30, 2023 decreased by $30 million, or 17%, to $151 million, compared with $181 million in the three months ended June 30, 202 2. Adjusted EBITDA decreased by $30 million principally due to higher operating and input costs, partly offset by favorable volume/mix effects.

Adjusted EBITDA in the six months ended June 30, 2023 decreased by $45 million, or 14%, to $281 million, compared with $326 million in the six months ended June 30, 2022. Excluding unfavorable foreign currency translation effects of $3 million, Adjusted EBITDA decreased by $42 million principally due to higher operating costs and unfavorable volume/mix effects (impact of IFRS 15 contract asset).

Cash flows used in operating activities

​

Cash flows used in operating activities decreased by $105 million to $34 million in the six months ended June 30, 2023, from $139 million in the same period in 2022. The decrease was mainly due to a decrease in operating profit of $89 million, an increase in depreciation and amortization of $23 million, an increase in exceptional operating items of $21 million, a decrease in working capital outflows of $220 million, a decrease in exceptional costs paid, including restructuring of $2 million, higher interest payments of $31 million, and higher outflows from settlements of foreign currency derivative financial instruments of $41 million.

Cash flows used in investing activities

Cash flows used in investing activities decreased by $64 million to $222 million in t he six months ended June 30, 2023, compared with $286 million in the same period in 2022 that was mainly driven by the effect of timing on projects relating to the Group’s growth investment program, partly offset by higher maintenance capital expenditure.

Lease payments of $38 million in the six months ended June 30, 2023, increased by $12 million compared to $26 million in the six months ended June 30, 2022, reflecting increased principal repayments on the Group’s lease obligations.

In the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company paid cash dividends to shareholders of $131 million (2022: $121 million). On February 21, 2023, the Board approved an interim cash dividend of $0.10 per ordinary share.

Capital expenditure for the six months ended June 30, 2023 decreased by $64 million to $222 million, compared with $286 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The decrease was mainly driven by the effect of timing on projects relating to the Group’s growth investment program, partly offset by higher maintenance capital expenditure. Capital expenditure for the six months ended June 30, 2023 includes $160 million related to the growth investment program.

In Europe, capital expenditure in the six months ended June 30, 2023 was $113 million compared with $93 million in the same period in 2022, with the increase primarily attributable to the Group’s growth investment program. In Americas capital expenditure in the six months ended June 30, 2023 was $109 million, compared with $193 million in the same period in 2022, with the decrease primarily attributable to the timing of project cash flows in relation to the Group’s growth investment program, partly offset by higher maintenance capital expenditure.

Receivables Factoring and Related Programs

​

The Group participates in several uncommitted accounts receivable factoring and related programs with various financial institutions for certain receivables. Such programs are accounted for as true sales of receivables, as they are either without recourse to the Group or transfer substantially all the risk and rewards to the financial institutions. Receivables of $591 million were sold under these programs at June 30, 2023 (December 31, 2022: $530 million).

Trade Payables Processing

Certain of our suppliers have access to independent third-party payable processors. The processors allow suppliers, if they choose, to sell their receivables to financial institutions at the sole discretion of both the supplier and the financial institution. We have no involvement in the sale of these receivables and our suppliers are at liberty to use these arrangements if they wish to receive early payment. As the original liability to our suppliers, including amounts due and scheduled payment dates, remains as agreed in our supply agreements and is neither legally extinguished nor substantially modified, the Group continues to present such obligations within trade payables.

Forward-looking statements are not historical facts and are inherently subject to known and unknown risks and uncertainties, many of which may be beyond our control. Forward-looking statements are not a guarantee of future performance and actual results or developments may differ materially from expectations. The words “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “will,” “could,” “would,” “should,” “may,” “plan,” “estimate,” “intend,” “predict,” “potential,” “continue,” and the negatives of these words and other similar expressions generally identify forward-looking statements. Any forward-looking statements in this document are based on certain assumptions and analyses made by us in light of our experience and perception of historical trends, current conditions, expected future developments, and other factors we believe are appropriate in the circumstances. It is possible that actual events could differ materially from those made in or suggested by the forward-looking statements in this document from our current expectations and projections about future events at the time due to a variety of factors including, but not limited to, the following:

changes in the political, credit, financial and/or economic environment in which we operate, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, such as reducing demand for our products; competition from other metal packaging producers and alternative forms of packaging; increases in metal beverage cans manufacturing capacity without corresponding increases in demand; concentration of our customers and further consolidation of our existing customer base; changes in our customers’ strategic choices, such as whether to prioritize price or volume requirements; varied seasonal demands for our products and unseasonable weather conditions; availability and any increase in the costs of raw materials, including as a result of changes in tariffs and duties and our inability to fully pass-through input costs; stability of energy supply and increase in energy prices, including in Europe as a result of the ongoing Russia-Ukraine war; reliance on our suppliers and their ability to make timely deliveries due to factors such as supply chain disruption; currency, interest rate and commodity price fluctuations; interruption in the operations of our production facilities; future acquisitions, including with respect to successful integration; a significant write down of goodwill; data protection, data breaches, cyber attacks on our information technology systems and network disruptions, including the costs and reputational harm associated with such events; impact of climate change, both physical and transitional; environmental, health and safety concerns, as well as legal, regulatory or other measures to address such concerns and associated costs to us; legislation and regulation, including costs of compliance and changes to laws and regulations governing our business; workplace injury and illness claims at our production facilities; litigation, arbitration and other proceedings; changes in consumer lifestyle, nutritional preferences, health-related concerns and consumer taxation; costs and future funding obligations associated with post-retirement benefits provided to our employees; organized strikes or work stoppages by our unionized employees; failure of our control measures and systems that result in faulty or contaminated products; non-existent, insufficient or prohibitively expensive insurance coverage; dependence on our executive and senior management, and personnel and other risks and uncertainties described in the risk factors described in our Annual Report on Form 20-F filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and any other public filings made by the us with the SEC.

In addition, new risk factors and uncertainties emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all risk factors and uncertainties, nor can we assess the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual events to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements.
