| Segmental information |
Results for the yearIntroduction This section explains the results and performance of the group for the three years ended 30 June 2026. Disclosures are provided for segmental information, operating costs, exceptional items, finance income and charges, the group's share of results of associates and joint ventures and taxation. For associates, joint ventures and taxation, balance sheet disclosures are also provided in this section. 2. Segmental information | | | | | | | | | | Sales comprise revenue from contracts with customers from the sale of goods, royalties and rents receivable. Revenue from the sale of goods includes excise and other duties which the group pays as principal but excludes duties and taxes collected on behalf of third parties, such as value added tax. Sales are recognised as or when performance obligations are satisfied by transferring control of a good or service to the customer, which is determined by considering, among other factors, the delivery terms agreed with customers. For the sale of goods, the transfer of control occurs when the significant risks and rewards of ownership are passed to the customer. Based on the shipping terms agreed with customers, the transfer of control of goods occurs at the time of dispatch for the majority of sales. Where the transfer of control is subsequent to the dispatch of goods, the time between dispatch and receipt by the customer is generally less than five days. The group includes in sales the net consideration to which it expects to be entitled. Sales are recognised to the extent that it is highly probable that a significant reversal will not occur. Therefore, sales are stated net of expected price discounts, allowances for customer loyalty and certain promotional activities and similar items. Generally, payment of the transaction price is due within credit terms that are consistent with industry practices, with no element of financing. | | | Net sales are sales less excise duties. Diageo incurs excise duties throughout the world. In the majority of countries, excise duties are effectively a production tax which becomes payable when the product is removed from bonded premises and is not directly related to the value of sales. It is generally not included as a separate item on external invoices; increases in excise duty are not always passed on to the customer and where a customer fails to pay for products received, the group cannot reclaim the excise duty. The group therefore recognises excise duty, unless it regards itself as an agent of the regulatory authorities, as a cost to the group. | | | Advertising costs, point of sale materials and sponsorship payments are charged to marketing in operating profit when the company has a right of access to the goods or services acquired. | | | Exceptional items are those that in management’s judgement need to be disclosed separately. Such items are included in the income statement caption to which they relate, and form part of the segmental reporting. Management believes that separate disclosure of exceptional items and the classification between operating and non- operating further helps investors to understand the performance of the group. Changes in estimates and reversals in relation to items previously recognised as exceptional are presented consistently as exceptional in the current year. | | | | |
Diageo is an international manufacturer and distributor of premium drinks. Diageo also owns a number of investments in associates and joint ventures, as set out in note 6. The segmental information presented is consistent with management reporting provided to the Executive Committee (the chief operating decision-maker). The Executive Committee considers the business principally from a geographical perspective based on the location of third-party sales and the business analysis is presented by geographical segment. The group's operations also include the Corporate segment. Corporate costs are in respect of central costs, including finance, marketing, corporate relations, human resources and legal, as well as certain information systems, facilities and employee costs that are not allocable to the geographical segments. Diageo uses shared services operations to deliver transaction processing activities for markets and operational entities. These centres are located in India, Hungary, Colombia and the Philippines. These captive business service centres also perform certain central finance activities, including elements of financial planning and reporting, treasury and HR services. The costs of shared services operations are recharged to the regions. Executive Committee makes decisions based on the analysis of several financial data sets including organic and IFRS reported data. The segmental analysis below is derived from IFRS reported figures, except that operating performance is presented using operating profit before exceptional items, a non-GAAP measure used by the Executive Committee. Supply Chain and Procurement (SC&P), which manufactures products for other group companies and includes the production sites in the United Kingdom, Ireland, Guatemala and Mexico, as well as comprises the global procurement function, is considered a key intersegmental operation instead of a separate operating segment.
