Disclosure Of Condensed Consolidating Financial Information [Abstract]  
Summarised financial information The following summarised financial information is required by the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission and has been
prepared in accordance with Section 3-10 of Regulation S-X in respect of the guarantees of:
US$6.89 billion of outstanding bonds issued by B.A.T Capital Corporation (BATCAP) in connection with the acquisition of
Reynolds American, including registered bonds issued in exchange for the initially issued bonds (the 2017 Bonds);
US$10.12 billion of outstanding bonds issued by BATCAP pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement on Form F-3 filed on 17
July 2019, and US$8.80 billion of outstanding bonds issued by BATCAP pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement on Form
F-3 filed on 1 July 2022 pursuant to which BATCAP, BATIF or the Company may issue an indefinite amount of debt securities;
and
US$2.50 billion of outstanding bonds issued by BATIF pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement on Form F-3 filed on 17 July
2019, and US$1.00 billion of outstanding bonds issued by BATIF pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement on Form F-3 filed
on 1 July 2022 pursuant to which BATCAP, BATIF or the Company may issue an indefinite amount of debt securities.
As of 28 July 2020, all relevant Group entities suspended their reporting obligations with respect to the US$4.65 billion (30 June
2024 and 31 December 2024: US$6.68 billion) of RAI unsecured notes and US$22.12 million (30 June 2024 and 31 December 2024:
US$22.12 million) of Lorillard unsecured notes. As such, no summarised financial information is provided with respect to these
securities.
The SEC Shelf registration was renewed in July 2025 and is valid for three years.
As described below, Reynolds American Inc. (Reynolds American/RAI) is a subsidiary guarantor of all outstanding series of
BATCAP and BATIF bonds. Under the terms of the indentures governing such notes, any subsidiary guarantor (including Reynolds
American) other than BATCAP or BATIF, as applicable, BATNF and BATHTN (as defined below), will automatically and
unconditionally be released from all obligations under its guarantee, and such guarantee shall thereupon terminate and be
discharged and of no further force or effect, in the event that (1) its guarantee of all then outstanding notes issued under the
Group’s EMTN Programme is released or (2) at substantially the same time its guarantee of the debt securities is terminated,
such subsidiary guarantor is released from all obligations in respect of indebtedness for borrowed money for which such
subsidiary guarantor is an obligor (as a guarantor or borrower). Under the EMTN Programme, Reynolds American’s guarantee is
released if at any time the aggregate amount of indebtedness for borrowed money, subject to certain exceptions, for which
Reynolds American is an obligor, does not exceed 10% of the outstanding long-term debt of BAT as reflected in the balance sheet
included in BAT's most recent publicly released interim or annual consolidated financial statements.
Reynolds American’s guarantee may be released notwithstanding Reynolds American guaranteeing other indebtedness,
provided Reynolds American’s guarantee of outstanding notes issued under the EMTN Programme is released. If Reynolds
American’s guarantee is released, BAT is not required to replace such guarantee, and the debt securities will have the benefit of
fewer subsidiary guarantees for the remaining maturity of the debt securities.
Note: The following summarised financial information reports the unconsolidated contribution of each applicable company to the
Group’s consolidated results and not the separate financial statements for each applicable company as local financial
statements are prepared in accordance with local legislative requirements and may differ from the financial information provided
below. In particular, in respect of the United States region, all financial statements and financial information provided by or with
respect to the U.S. business or RAI (and/or RAI and its subsidiaries (collectively, the Reynolds Group)) are prepared on the basis of
U.S. GAAP and constitute the primary financial statements or financial information of the U.S. business or RAI (and/or the
Reynolds Group). Solely for the purpose of consolidation within the results of BAT p.l.c. and the BAT Group, this financial
information is then converted to IFRS. To the extent any such financial information provided in these financial statements relates
to the U.S. business or RAI (and/or the Reynolds Group), it is provided as an explanation of the U.S. business’s or RAI’s (and/or the
Reynolds Group’s) primary U.S. GAAP-based financial statements and information.
The subsidiaries disclosed below are wholly-owned and the guarantees provided are full and unconditional, and joint and several:
a.British American Tobacco p.l.c. (as the parent guarantor), referred to as ‘BAT p.l.c.’ in the financials below;
b.B.A.T Capital Corporation (as an issuer or a subsidiary guarantor, as the case may be), referred to as ‘BATCAP’ in the financials
below;
c.B.A.T. International Finance p.l.c. (as an issuer or a subsidiary guarantor, as the case may be), referred to as ‘BATIF’ in the
financials below;
d.B.A.T. Netherlands Finance B.V. (as a subsidiary guarantor), referred to as ‘BATNF’ in the financials below;
e.Reynolds American Inc. (as a subsidiary guarantor), referred to as ‘RAI’ in the financials below; and
f.British American Tobacco Holdings (The Netherlands) B.V. (as a subsidiary guarantor of the 2017 Bonds only), referred to as
‘BATHTN’ in the financials below.
In accordance with Section 13-01 of Regulation S-X, information in respect of investments in subsidiaries that are not issuers or
guarantors has been excluded from non-current assets as shown in the balance sheet table below. The “BATHTN” column in the
summarised financial information is only applicable in the context of the 2017 Bonds. British American Tobacco Holdings (The
Netherlands) B.V. (‘BATHTN’) is not an issuer nor a guarantor of any of the other securities referenced in this note. None of the
issuers or other guarantors has material balances with or an investment in BATHTN. Investments in subsidiaries represent share
capital acquired in relation to or issued by subsidiary undertakings.
In the case of debt securities that may be issued by BAT p.l.c., BATCAP or BATIF under an indenture to be entered into (the “2022
Indenture”) and referred to in the registration statement in Form F-3 (Registration No. 333-288488), one or more of BATCAP,
BATIF, BATNF and RAI may guarantee such debt securities to the extent specified in the applicable supplemental indenture to
the 2022 Indenture. In addition, BAT p.l.c. will be a parent guarantor in respect of any debt securities issued by BATCAP or BATIF
under the 2022 Indenture.
