Brian McNamara, Chief Executive Officer, Haleon said:
"I am incredibly proud that in the first half Haleon
successfully completed its separation from GSK and became an
independent listed company. This was the result of a huge amount of
hard work and preparation, and I would like to thank all of my
colleagues for their tireless efforts, focus and commitment.
Haleon performed strongly in the first half of the year with
double digit revenue growth, importantly with a healthy balance of
price and volume/mix reflecting brand strength across our
portfolio. Furthermore, we gained or maintained share in most of
our business, demonstrating that continued investment is driving
sustainable growth, even in difficult market conditions. I am also
pleased that we delivered margin expansion in the first half
despite significant cost inflation and absorption of standalone
costs for the business. Strong free cash flow generation underpins
confidence in our ability to de-lever quickly over the coming
years.
Whilst navigating the current macro-economic challenges and
uncertainties, positive momentum in our business has continued into
the second half. This combined with the strength of the business
reinforces our confidence that we are well positioned to deliver on
guidance this year and over the medium term."

Outlook
FY2022 revenue and Adjusted operating margin guidance remains
unchanged from the trading update on 27 July 2022.
FY2022 organic revenue growth is expected to be 6-8%.
Adjusted operating margin in FY2022 is expected to be slightly
down at constant currency on last year (FY21: 22.8%). Strong
growth, the Pfizer synergies, pricing and ongoing supply
efficiencies, will largely offset Haleon standalone costs
(GBP175-GBP200m), continued investment, inflationary cost pressure
and the impact of Russia and Ukraine. Assuming current spot rates
are sustained for the rest of the year, currency will be slightly
positive on adjusted operating margin.
In FY2022, the Adjusted effective tax rate is now expected to be
at the lower end of the 22-23% range shared previously. FY2022 net
interest expense is unchanged at GBP0.2bn and net capex guidance is
unchanged from prior guidance, and remains c.3% sales.
Separation and Admission costs are now expected to be
approximately GBP0.5bn (at current spot rates) between FY2022 and
FY2024, with 80% of costs incurred in FY2022, and the balance split
across FY2023 and FY 2024. Admission costs are expected to be just
over GBP0.1bn. (Previously, Separation and Admission costs were
expected to be approximately GBP0.4bn between FY2022 and FY2024,
including Admission costs of up to GBP0.1bn most of which were
expected to be incurred in FY2022).
All medium term guidance is reiterated, namely annual organic
revenue growth of 4-6%, sustainable moderate Adjusted operating
margin expansion at constant currency, Net debt/Adjusted EBITDA
expected to be below 3x by the end of 2024 and initial dividend
expected to be at lower end of 30-50% pay-out range (subject to
Haleon Board approval).
Current trading
Positive momentum seen in the first half of the year has
continued into the third quarter, albeit at a slower rate as
expected, underpinning our guidance for FY2022 organic growth of
6-8%. We believe the business is well positioned to navigate the
current macro-economic challenges including rising inflation and
the potential impact this may have on consumer behaviour in the
future.
Update on Zantac
As Haleon stated in the Group's announcement on 11 August 2022,
Haleon is not a party to any Zantac claims.
Haleon has notified GSK and Pfizer that it rejects their
requests for indemnification on the basis that the scope of the
indemnities set out in the joint venture agreement only covers
their consumer healthcare businesses as conducted when the JV was
formed in 2018. At that time, neither GSK nor Pfizer marketed OTC
Zantac in the US or Canada.

Business review
Haleon is led by its purpose to deliver better everyday health
with humanity.
A clear approach to deliver on our growth ambitions is built on
a world class portfolio of category leading brands in a growing
sector across an attractive geographic footprint. These leverages
competitive capabilities combining human understanding with trusted
science, brand building and innovation, leading route to market and
digital.
Haleon aims to outperform through a focus on increasing
household penetration and capitalising on new and emerging growth
opportunities across channels and geographies, underpinned by a
strong focus on execution and financial discipline to improve
profitability and sustain reinvestment in growth. Critically,
running a responsible business, which is integral to all that we
do, allows Haleon to reduce risk and support performance.
Taken together, this is expected to drive 4-6% organic annual
sales growth, a moderate expansion in our margins while supporting
our investment for growth, delivering consistent high cash
conversion and maintaining a focus on our clear and disciplined
capital allocation policy.
Delivering growth
During the first half, Haleon grew revenue organically 11.6%,
with growth of Power Brands ahead of this at 13.4%. Haleon
delivered strong growth and market share through increased
household penetration, winning new consumers with exciting
innovations and activation, as well as channel expansion and
geographic expansion. In the first half 2/3 of Haleon's business
gained or maintained market share.
In Oral Health, where revenue grew 5.1% organically, Haleon
maintained its track record of market outperformance, with sales
double the growth rate of the overall market, mainly driven by
improved penetration of Sensodyne, particularly in e-commerce in
the US and Parodontax in major markets. In aggregate, this resulted
in category share growth with three quarters of the business
gaining or maintain market share. Parodontax, one of the fastest
growing toothpaste brands globally, launched in South Africa and
grew double digit in Middle East and Africa. Additionally in Dental
Appliance Care, our new innovation Poligrip Power Max Hold+ was
rolled out to 16 markets and is performing well.
In Vitamins, Minerals and Supplements, where organic revenue
growth was 11.9%, Haleon gained share overall including in the US
and China. During the first half in the US Emergen-C grew double
digit driven by engagement to drive growth with younger and more
diverse households, and through innovation including Emergen-C Kidz
which achieved 10% market share in its first year. This was
amplified by in-season omni-channel and digital activations. In
China, the Caltrate chewable tablets innovation enabled the brand
to reach new younger consumers.
In Pain Relief, organic revenue growth was 11.7%. A stand out
performer in the category was Panadol which gained share and saw
organic growth in the first half was up in the mid twenties
percent, double the level of the category. In the UK, the brand has
increased share through deliberate incremental A&P investment
in multi-channel media, as well as increased distribution and shelf
presence to recruit and maintain new user groups converted during
the pandemic.
In Respiratory Health organic revenue growth of 46.7% reflected
the strong cold and flu season. Theraflu was supported by
innovation launches and commercial execution which enabled the
brand to meet strong demand. Theraflu outperformed the market
gaining share from significantly improved penetration in the US
contributing to Respiratory Health category share gain overall.
Digestive Health and Other saw organic revenue growth of 3.5%.
Challenging conditions in the preventative antacid market adversely
impacted Nexium, although our brands in the immediate relief
antacid category, such as ENO and Tums performed well.
Haleon remains focused on innovating to underpin and accelerate
growth. In the first half this included extending the portfolio
demographically, with several natural variants launched in the
first half targeting a younger consumer base. These included
Theraflu Naturals, Robitussin Elderberry, and Emergen-C botanicals
in the US, and non-medicated Otrivin, Breathe Clean and Theraflu
Pro-Naturals in Central and Eastern Europe. In Oral Health, roll
out of Sensodyne Nourish continued into new markets across Europe
including the UK. Moreover, Parodontax Gum+ was launched in over
ten markets and is performing well, particularly in France. Also,
in Dental Appliance Care, our new innovation Poligrip Power Max
Hold+ was rolled out to 16 markets and is outperforming the market.
In Pain Relief Panadol Liquid gel caps were launched in Australia
with good early feedback. In VMS, we launched Centrum Multi-gummies
in tropical fruit.
During the first half a number of successful marketing campaigns
supported brand performance. In particular the Take care Panadol
campaign amplified brand activation and relevance during a key
COVID-19 vaccination period. Furthermore, the brand won several
awards for the campaign including the Annual International Award
for Innovation in Media. Elsewhere Haleon won the prestigious I-COM
data creativity award for the Flonase campaign which tracked flu
symptoms and targeted likely sufferers. For the first half Haleon
A&P spend was up 6% CER, equally split between offline and
online media channels, and with the increase reiterating the
commitments earlier this year to invest behind driving sustainable
growth.
From a channel perspective, there remains significant
opportunity for e-commerce penetration, and e-commerce grew high
teens percent in the first half to 9% of total sales. Improved
content, optimised media, increased investment in high traffic
events and refreshed 'brand stores' all contributed to growth. In
the US and China, Haleon's two largest e-commerce markets, sales
grew 20% and 30%, respectively. Haleon also continues to invest in
digital capabilities across the business and was recognised for the
second year in a row at the Global Search Awards. Notably our
digital portal marketing to Healthcare professionals is now live in
39 markets, with over 10m unique visitors.
Supported by strong execution and financial discipline
The business remains focused on driving efficiency,
effectiveness and agility to make every investment count.
Haleon successfully separated from GSK including the completion
of a technology systems cut over demonstrating strong execution and
capabilities across the business.
Following demerger, Haleon had net debt of GBP10,707m. Strong
cash generation during the first half underpins Haleon's confidence
in its ability to de-lever rapidly to less than 3x net
debt/Adjusted EBITDA by the end of 2024. Additionally, Haleon's
long-term and short-term ratings were confirmed (Moody's: Baa1/P-2
S&P: BBB/A-2). The Group successfully completed the financing
required for payment of the separation dividend and for the
management of its ongoing liquidity.
Haleon delivered c.70% of expected FY2022 Pfizer synergies in
the first half, and remains on track to deliver GBP120m synergies
in FY2022, taking the aggregate Pfizer annual synergies to GBP600m
(increased from GBP500m at the Capital Markets Day in February
2022).
Initiatives to drive value from third-party expenditure and
offset headwinds from input prices and commodity inflation
continue, including forward buying, value engineering and new
supplier introduction, and initiatives to ensure continuity of
supply. In the first half, Haleon managed to offset c. 40% of cost
inflation through forward buying and other initiatives, as well as
having hedged or locked through contracts c. 90% of H2 22
materials.
Furthermore, across the business, Haleon also undertook SKU
rationalisation, improved logistics productivity through
warehousing and outbound freight consolidation. Simultaneously, the
business continued its insourcing initiatives, improved ROI on
promotional spend and optimised price-pack architecture across the
portfolio.
Excellent execution in markets remains a key pillar for driving
growth and in Central and Eastern Europe, this was delivered
through new communication toolkits and a successful pre-selling
campaign underpinned share expansion in the first half for
Theraflu. In the US, partnering with retailers enabled excellent
execution both in store and online, enabled double digit Advil
growth supporting double digit organic growth in Pain Relief sales
over the first six months.
Running a responsible business
Running a responsible business remains an integral part of our
strategy, and Haleon remains committed to tackling environmental
and social barriers to everyday health.
On track with existing environmental targets
Haleon is on track to reduce its net Scope 1 and 2 carbon
emissions by 100% by 2030 (versus its 2020 baseline), and to reduce
its Scope 3 emissions (includes all relevant scope 3 carbon
emission categories as outlined in the greenhouse gas protocol
(GHG), the industry standard across the value chain) by 42% from
source to sale by 2030 (versus its 2020 baseline). Initiatives in
the first half included the agreement with Ameresco Solar Energy
covering our manufacturing facility in Oak Hill, NY, providing
electricity from a dedicated offsite solar park.
Haleon continues to develop solutions for all product packaging
to be recyclable or reusable by 2030, and to reduce use of virgin
petroleum based plastic by 1/3 by 2030. Examples in the first half
included lightweight recycled plastic and plastic free packaging
with Dr.BEST and Aquafresh toothbrushes in Europe.
Opportunity to make a difference with Health inclusivity
We continue to believe that Haleon has a compelling opportunity
to make a meaningful difference to helping improve health
inclusivity. Initiatives in the first half with our brands
promoting inclusivity, included the Theraflu Rest and Recover
initiative in North America and mobility initiatives with Caltrate
in Asia Pacific to engage adults in China on bone health.
Internally, Haleon launched a leading parental leave policy for
employees, entitling all employees, regardless of gender or
sexuality, to 26 weeks fully paid parental leave effective 1
January 2023.
Building robust corporate governance
Haleon continues to build best practice corporate governance, in
line with the requirements of a dual LSE premium listed and NYSE
listed company. Board-level governance and committees have been
established to ensure alignment with all requirements of the UK
Corporate Governance Code. The Group's internal and external
operational governance links in directly to the Board-level
governance, enabling rapid escalation and visibility.

1. Definitions and calculations of non-IFRS measures can be

Oral Health
-- Sensodyne delivered mid-single digit revenue growth
reflecting underlying brand strength, continued innovation and
strong growth across key markets particularly Asia Pacific. This
more than offset the negative impact of the COVID-19 lockdown in
China in Q2.
-- Parodontax saw high-single digit revenue growth across all regions.
-- Denture care revenue was mid-single digit as a result of
strong growth in EMEA and LatAm driven by demand returning
following the decline seen during the pandemic.
VMS
-- Centrum revenue up mid-teens percent reflecting good growth
across all regions, and up double digit in North America and Asia
Pacific. Centrum and Emergen-C benefitted from increased capacity
in North America.
-- Caltrate increased high-single digit given growth in China.
Pain Relief
-- Panadol revenue up mid twenties percent reflecting a
successful post COVID-19 vaccination campaign and activation to
meet increased demand during the Omicron wave.
-- Advil growth in the low twenties percent benefitting from
increased demand and retail stocking patterns in the US.
-- Low single digit growth from Voltaren primarily driven by
growth in China and the US, which was partly offset by a decline in
Germany.
Respiratory Health
-- A strong cold and flu season, well ahead of the historically
low season in 2021 was supported by the COVID-19 Omicron wave
underpinning results across all regions. This added 4% to group
revenue growth in the first half.
-- In the US and Europe, the cold and flu season was around 20%
ahead of 2019 levels. As a result of the rebound, Theraflu revenue
more than doubled and Otrivin was up just under 50%.
Digestive Health and Other
-- Digestive Health which is around half of this reported
product category saw growth in Tums and Eno, Smokers health
revenues declined slightly and skin health brands were up on last
year.

North America
-- Organic revenue growth in North America was +10.4%, with 2.1%
price and 8.3% volume/mix.
-- Oral Health - revenue up low single digit, with Sensodyne up
low single digit impacted by change in retailer inventory levels
and disproportionately impacted by the cutover in Q2. Good growth
in Parodontax.
-- VMS - revenue up mid teens percent given strong Centrum and
Emergen-C growth supported by increased capacity.
-- Pain Relief - double digit revenue growth driven by Advil
given increased demand during the Omicron wave and retail stocking
patterns.
-- Respiratory Health - revenue up over 50% helped by the
sustained rebound in cold and flu season well ahead of 2019 levels,
including some benefit from new COVID-19 variants with similar
symptoms, and successful market activation.
-- Digestive Health and Other - revenue flat with strong growth
in Chapstick offset by weakness in Smokers Health.
-- Adjusted operating margin increased 440bps to 24.2%, and by
350bps at constant exchange rates. Margin expansion was due to
strong operating leverage as well as benefits from productivity
improvements, portfolio optimisation and strong cost management
partially offset by commodity and freight headwinds. The prior year
reflected favourable comparatives following site investments and
one-time manufacturing write-offs.
Europe, Middle East & Africa (EMEA) and Latin America
(LatAm)
-- Organic revenue growth in EMEA and LatAm was 12.1%, with 5.5%
price and 6.6% volume/mix.
-- Oral Health - mid single digit revenue growth due to strong
Parodontax growth, robust recovery in Denture Care and continued
Sensodyne growth.
-- VMS - revenue increased double digit driven by high single
digit growth in Centrum and double digit growth in local strategic
brands.
-- Pain Relief - mid single digit revenue growth largely reflecting double digit Panadol growth.
-- Respiratory Health - revenue up over 50% due to a strong cold
and flu season significantly ahead of 2019 levels.
-- Digestive Health and Other - revenue up double digit with good results in all categories.
-- Particularly strong double digit revenue growth in Latin
America and Middle East & Africa underpinned H1 revenue.
Additionally, Europe saw high single digit revenue growth in
Northern Europe with strong double digit growth in Southern and
Central and Eastern Europe, which was partly offset by challenging
performance in Germany.
-- Adjusted operating margin declined by 150bps or 90bps at
constant exchange rates largely driven by reduced sales from Russia
/ Ukraine as well as the one-time adverse impact of stock and
receivable write-downs. Higher commodity and freight costs, and
increased investment in A&P was offset by positive operating
leverage, particularly from pricing, and efficiencies across the
business.
Asia-Pacific
-- Organic revenue growth in Asia-Pacific was 12.3%, with 3.1%
price and 9.2% volume/mix. This included a one-off benefit of c.2%
related to separation from changes in distribution in Vietnam.
-- Oral Health - high single digit revenue growth in Oral Health
reflected strong growth in India, partly offset by some weakness in
China from COVID-19 related lockdowns.
-- VMS - low double digit revenue growth supported by successful
immunity campaigns in China by Centrum and Caltrate, and Centrum in
Taiwan. Innovations around gender based vitamins and probiotics
contributed to growth.
-- Pain Relief - revenue growth in the mid twenties percent
benefitting from successful Panadol activation and execution in
markets including Australia, New Zealand, Malaysia and Taiwan
relating to Omicron COVID-19 wave and a successful campaign around
the COVID-19 vaccination.
-- Respiratory Health - rebound in cold and flu season resulted
in revenue up high twenties percent.
-- Digestive Health and Other - revenue slightly down due to weakness in skin health brands.
-- Performance in South-East Asia, Taiwan and India was
particularly strong during the first half and revenue up double
digit. Revenue in China increased mid single digit for the first
half despite a slowdown in the second quarter due to COVID-19
related lockdowns.
-- Adjusted operating margin increased 140bps or 110bps at
constant exchange rates to 24.1% driven by strong operating
leverage combined with efficiencies, which were partly offset by
higher A&P investment and higher commodity and freight related
costs.

due to the increase in the number of ordinary shares outstanding as
a result of the Demerger activities that took place in July 2022.
Basic earnings per share has been calculated by dividing the profit
attributable to shareholders by the Company's weighted average
number of shares in issue, with 9,234,573,831 shares outstanding as
at the date of the report. There are no dilutive equity instruments
for the periods presented.
Revenue
Revenue increased 13.4% at reported exchange rates and by 11.6%
organically to GBP5,188m (H1 2021: GBP4,575m). Favourable foreign
exchange added GBP112m to total revenue, mainly due to
strengthening of the US Dollar against Sterling.
Gross profit
Reported gross profit increased by 14.1% to GBP3,211m (H1 2021:
GBP2,814m) with gross margin was up 40bps at 61.9%. Similarly,
Adjusted gross profit increased by 13.9% with Adjusted gross margin
of 62.8% (H1 2021: 62.5%).
Positive movements in Adjusted gross profit margin were largely
driven by pricing, favourable mix, Pfizer synergies and ongoing
supply chain and manufacturing efficiency benefits. This was partly
offset by higher commodity related costs and freight cost
inflation.
Operating profit
Operating profit and operating profit margin increased by 22.1%
to GBP900m (H1 2021: GBP737m) and by 120bps respectively to 17.3%
(H1 2021: 16.1%). Adjusted operating profit increased by 21.2% to
GBP1,191m (H1 2021: GBP983m) and Adjusted operating profit margin
increased by 150bps or by 90bps at constant exchange rates to
23.0%.
Adjusting items within operating profit totalled GBP291m in H1
2022 (H1 2021: GBP246m), representing GBP20m (H1 2021: GBP77m) of
costs related to restructuring activities associated with the
Pfizer JV Transaction at a reduced level as we come to the end of
the programme, Separation and Admission costs of GBP229m (H1 2021:
GBP105m) as expected given the peak of work to execute separation
will occur during 2022. Net Intangibles Amortisation and Impairment
of GBP40m (H1 2021: GBP21m) and Disposals and others of GBP2m (H1
2021: GBP43m).
Adjusted operating profit and margin were driven by operating
leverage as a result of the strong revenue growth, including
healthy balance of volume and price/mix, combined with Pfizer
synergies partly offset by higher commodity related costs and
freight cost inflation, incremental costs of operating as a
standalone company, and increased investment in A&P and
R&D.
During the first half, A&P spend increased 6% at CER to
represent 19.4% of revenue (H1 2021: 20.3%). A&P growth was
behind revenue growth primarily due to scale benefits, a stronger
than expected rebound across Respiratory Health and phasing of
spend. Adjusted R&D expenditure totalled GBP137m, up 23.4% (H1
2021: GBP111m) and included the transfer of additional activities
to the R&D functions following the implementation of a new
operating model in Q4 FY21.
Net finance costs
Net finance costs increased to GBP36m, reflecting interest of
GBP79 million related to the issuance of GBP9.2bn in notes in March
2022 offset partly by interest income of GBP43 million mainly
related to the on-lend of funds to GSK Group and the Pfizer Group
before the demerger.
Tax charge
The tax charge of GBP320m (H1 2021: GBP216m) represented an
effective tax rate on IFRS results of 37% (H1 2021: 29%). The
charge of GBP320m included a tax charge on adjusting items
totalling GBP75m. Included within this was a non-cash tax charge of
GBP104m that related to the revaluation of US deferred tax
liabilities given the increase in the blended rate of US state
taxes expected to apply as a result of the demerger. The tax charge
on an Adjusted basis was GBP245m (H1 2021: GBP224m) and the
effective tax rate on an Adjusted results basis was 21% (H1 2021:
23%).
Free cash flow
Net cash from operating activities totalled GBP680m in H1 2022
(H1 2021: GBP234m), which included a net cash outflow of GBP224m
related to separation, restructuring and disposals. Free cash flow
during H1 2022 was GBP553m, a GBP364m increase versus H1 2021. The
increase in free cash flow benefitted from strong H1 2022 operating
results, the phasing of tax payments due to repayments from prior
years, continued working capital management with improved payables
offset by higher receivables from strong revenue growth, as well as
disciplined capital spend management. These increases were offset
partially by annual distributions to non-controlling interests of
GBP47 million that were made H1 2022 versus H2 2021, and lower
proceeds from sale of intangible assets in H1 2022 vs 2021.

PP&E and intangible assets of GBP4m (H1: 2021: GBP79m).
Net debt
At 30 June 2022, the Group's net debt was GBP8,836m, which
mainly includes the amounts raised as part of the pre-funding

On 13 July 2022, the Group drew down GBP1,493m under a 3-year

separation dividends resulting in net debt at separation of
GBP10,707m.
As of 1 September 2022, the Group's long-term and short-term
credit ratings remain unchanged (Moody's: Baa1/P-2 S&P:
BBB/A-2)
Sources of liquidity
As at 18 July 2022, the completion date of the demerger, Haleon
had total liquidity of GBP2.9bn comprising GBP2.2bn ($1.4bn and
GBP1.0bn) of bank facilities and GBP716m of cash and cash
equivalents. The $1.4bn and GBP1.0bn Revolving Credit facilities
are undrawn. Subsequent to the demerger, Haleon launched a $10bn US
commercial paper programme and a GBP2bn Euro commercial paper
programme.
Post Balance Sheet Events
For information and further details about the demerger
activities that took place after 30 June 2022, see Note 15 of the
Notes to condensed consolidated financial statements.
Principal risks
The risks and uncertainties affecting the Group include, but are
not limited to, those discussed under "Risk Factors" on pages 17 to
45 of Haleon's prospectus and under "Risk Factors" in Haleon's
Registration Statement on Form 20-F. A summary of the 2022
principal risks areas are set out below and the nature and impact
of which remain essentially unchanged since the date of the
prospectus filing. These are not listed in order of significance
and are not the only ones facing the Group.
Competition: The Group operates in a highly competitive market
and failure to successfully compete with competitors could have a
material adverse effect on the Group's business.
Ability to identify and offer products at attractive prices that
appeal to consumer tastes and preferences: The Group's success
depends on its ability to anticipate and respond to changes in
consumer preferences and a failure to adapt its strategy
appropriately may have a material adverse effect on the Group's
business and/or financial condition.
Supply continuity: The Group's business results are impacted by
the Group's ability to manage disruptions in the Group's global
supply chain.
Distribution: Increasing dependence on key retail customers,
changes in the policies of the Group's retail customers, the
emergence of alternative retail channels and the rapidly changing
retail landscape may materially and adversely affect the Group's
business.
Innovation: The Group may not be able to develop and
commercialise new products effectively, which may materially and
adversely affect the results of the Group's operations and
financial condition.
Personnel attraction and retention: Failure to retain key
personnel or attract new personnel could have a material adverse
effect on the Group's business.
Reputation: Damage to the Group's reputation could have a
material adverse effect on the Group's
business.
Climate Change and Sustainability: Failure to respond
effectively to the challenges raised by climate change and other
sustainability matters may have a material adverse impact on the
Group's business and results of operations.
Pandemics, Epidemics or similar health concerns: A pandemic,
epidemic or similar widespread health concern could have, and
COVID-19 has had and will continue to have, a variety of impacts on
the Group's business, results of operations, cash flows and
financial condition.
Intellectual Property rights: The Group may not be successful in
obtaining, maintaining and enforcing sufficient intellectual
property rights to protect its business, or in avoiding claims that
the Group infringes on the intellectual property rights of
others.
Product recalls: The Group may incur liabilities or be forced to
recall products as a result of real or perceived product quality or
other product-related issues.
Cyber-security: Although the Group has a board array of
information security measures in place, the Group's IT systems have
been, and will continue to be, subject to computer viruses or other
malicious codes, unauthorised access attempts, phishing and other
cyber-attacks.
Legal and regulatory landscape: The Group's business is subject
to legal and regulatory risks in all the markets in which it
operates, which may have a material adverse impact on the Group's
business operations and financial condition.
Ingredient regulation: The Group faces risks relating to the
regulation and perception of the ingredients it uses in its
products, which could materially and adversely impact the Group's
business, prospects, financial condition and results of
operations.
Litigation, disputes and regulatory investigations: Litigation,
disputes and regulatory investigations may materially and adversely
affect the Group's business, financial condition, results of
operations and prospects.
Separation benefits: There can be no guarantee that the
anticipated benefits of the separation will be realised in full or
in part, or as to the timing when any such benefits may be
realised.
Macroeconomic factors: The Group's business is subject to market
fluctuations and general economic conditions, including
inflationary pressures, each of which may materially and adversely
affect the Group's business, financial condition, results of
operations and prospects. Uncertainty, fluctuations or negative
trends in the international economic climate have had and could
continue to have a material adverse effect on the Group's business
and profitability.
Related party transactions
Related party transactions are disclosed in note 13 to the
condensed set of financial statements. There have been no changes
to the related parties of the Group for the six-months period ended
30 June 2022. Upon the completion of the demerger on 18 July 2022,
the GSK Group ceased to be a related party of the Group under
IFRS.
Going Concern
The Directors have considered the Group's financial plan, in
particular with reference to the period through September 2023 and
taken into account debt maturities, treasury risk management
policies, exposures to market and credit risk and hedging
activities and the principal risks and uncertainties faced by the
Group. For purposes of the going concern assessment, the Directors
make estimates of likely future cash flows which take into account
recent performance, external forecasts, committed debt facilities
and management's knowledge and expertise of the cashflow
drivers.
Considering the above, the Group's diversified geographic
presence, product offering and consumer profile, the Directors
believe that it is appropriate to adopt the going concern basis of
accounting in preparing the Group's condensed consolidated
financial statements.
Responsibility Statement
The Board of Directors approved this Half-yearly Financial
Report on 19 September 2022.
The Directors confirm that to the best of their knowledge:
a) the condensed set of financial statements on pages 20 to 37
has been prepared in accordance with UK-adopted IAS 34 'Interim
Financial Reporting';
b) the interim management report on pages 1 to 16 includes a
fair review of the information required by regulations 4.2.7 and
4.2.8 of the UK Financial Conduct Authority's Disclosure Guidance
and Transparency Rules.
The Directors of Haleon plc are listed on pages 266 to 268 of
Haleon's prospectus and page 199 of the 20-F dated 1 June 2022. A
list of current Directors is maintained on the Haleon plc website:

Independent review report to Haleon plc
Conclusion
We have been engaged by the company to review the condensed set
of financial statements of the Haleon business in the half-yearly
financial report for the six months ended 30 June 2022 which
comprises the condensed consolidated income statement, the
condensed consolidated statement of other comprehensive income, the
condensed consolidated balance sheet, the condensed consolidated
statement of changes in equity, the condensed consolidated cash
flow statement and the related notes 1 to 15.
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that
causes us to believe that the condensed set of financial statements
in the half-yearly financial report for the six months ended 30
June 2022 is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance
with United Kingdom adopted International Accounting Standard 34
and the Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules of the United
Kingdom's Financial Conduct Authority.
Basis for Conclusion
We conducted our review in accordance with International
Standard on Review Engagements (UK) 2410 "Review of Interim
Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the
Entity" issued by the Financial Reporting Council for use in the
United Kingdom. A review of interim financial information consists
of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial
and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review
procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit
conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing
(UK) and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that
we would become aware of all significant matters that might be
identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit
opinion.
As disclosed in note 1, the annual financial statements of the
Group will be prepared in accordance with International Financial
Reporting Standards as issued by the IASB ("IASB IFRS") and UK
adopted International Accounting Standards ("UK IAS") (together
"IFRS"). The condensed set of financial statements included in this
half-yearly financial report has been prepared in accordance with
United Kingdom adopted International Accounting Standard 34,
"Interim Financial Reporting".
Conclusion Relating to Going Concern
Based on our review procedures, which are less extensive than
those performed in an audit as described in the Basis for
Conclusion section of this report, nothing has come to our
attention to suggest that the directors have inappropriately
adopted the going concern basis of accounting or that the directors
have identified material uncertainties relating to going concern
that are not appropriately disclosed.
This conclusion is based on the review procedures performed in
accordance with this ISRE (UK), however future events or conditions
may cause the entity to cease to continue as a going concern.
Responsibilities of the directors
The directors are responsible for preparing the half-yearly
financial report in accordance with the Disclosure Guidance and
Transparency Rules of the United Kingdom's Financial Conduct
Authority.
In preparing the half-yearly financial report, the directors are
responsible for assessing the Group's ability to continue as a
going concern, disclosing as applicable, matters related to going
concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the
directors either intend to liquidate the company or to cease
operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
Auditor's Responsibilities for the review of the financial
information
In reviewing the half-yearly financial report, we are
responsible for expressing to the Group a conclusion on the
condensed set of financial statement in the half-yearly financial
report. Our conclusion, including our conclusions relating to going
concern, are based on procedures that are less extensive than audit
procedures, as described in the basis for conclusion paragraph of
this report.
Use of our report
This report is made solely to the Company in accordance with
International Standard on Review Engagements (UK) 2410 "Review of
Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor
of the Entity" issued by the Financial Reporting Council. Our work
has been undertaken so that we might state to the Company those
matters we are required to state to it in an independent review
report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by
law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than
the Company, for our review work, for this report, or for the
conclusions we have formed.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE SIX MONTHSED 30 JUNE 2022 (unaudited)
1 BASIS OF PREPARATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
GlaxoSmithKline Consumer Healthcare Holdings (No.2) Limited
("CHHL2") and its subsidiary undertakings (collectively, "the
Group", "the Haleon business") was owned by GSK plc ("the GSK
Group") and the Pfizer Inc. ("the Pfizer Group") for the period
ended 30 June 2022. In July 2022, Haleon plc ("the Company") became
the ultimate holding company of the Group through a series of
share-for-share exchanges with the former shareholders (the GSK
Group and the Pfizer Group) to acquire the Group ("the Demerger
activities"). The Demerger activities fall outside the scope of
IFRS 3 "Business Combinations" and the Company has accounted for
these transactions by adopting the principles of predecessor
accounting which reflects the economic substance of the Demerger
activities and means that, the future consolidated financial
statements will be prepared as if the Group had been in existence
throughout the periods presented.
Refer to Note 15, 'Post Balance Sheet Events' for the details of
the Demerger activities that took place in July 2022. The Earnings
per Share calculation as disclosed in Note 10 'Earnings per Share'
has been retrospectively adjusted for all periods using the
weighted average number of outstanding shares issued by the Company
as at the date of the report as per the requirements in IAS 33
"Earnings per Share".
The condensed consolidated financial statements ('interim
financial statements') of the Group for the six months to 30 June
2022 have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial
Reporting issued by the International Accounting Standards Board
("IASB"), as adopted by the United Kingdom. These condensed
consolidated financial statements, which are unaudited, do not
include all the information and disclosures required in the annual
financial statements, and should be read in conjunction with the
Group's Historical Financial Information ('HFI') as at and for the
year ended 31 December 2021 included in the Prospectus and the
Group's Registration Statement on Form 20-F dated 1 June 2022,
which is available on the Company's website. The annual financial
statements of the Group for the year ended 31 December 2022 will be
prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting
Standards as adopted by the United Kingdom ("UK IFRS") and in
compliance with the International Financial Reporting Standards as
issued by the IASB ("IASB IFRS").
The comparative information for the year ended 31 December 2021
does not constitute statutory accounts of CHHL2 as defined in
section 434 of the Companies Act 2006. A copy of the company only
statutory accounts of CHHL2 for that year has been delivered to the
Registrar of Companies. The auditor's report on those accounts was
not qualified, did not include a reference to any matters to which
the auditors drew attention by way of emphasis without qualifying
the report and did not contain statements under section 498(2) or
(3) of the Companies Act 2006.
The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include
all of the information required for a complete set of IFRS
financial statements. However, selected notes are included to
explain events and transactions that are significant to an
understanding of the changes in the Group's financial position and
performance since the publication of the 2021 HFI report in the
Prospectus and the Group's Registration Statement on Form 20-F
dated 1 June 2022.
All accounting policies for recognition, measurement,
consolidation and presentation are as outlined in the 2021 HFI
report in the Prospectus and the Group's Registration Statement on
Form 20-F dated 1 June 2022 and these accounting policies are
applied consistently in preparation of the condensed consolidated
financial statements. The condensed financial statements have been
prepared on the historical cost basis, except for the revaluation
of certain financial instruments, and are presented in pounds
sterling, the presentation currency of the Group.
Going concern
The interim condensed consolidated financial statements have
been prepared on a going concern basis.
Judgements and estimates
The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial
statements requires management to make judgements about when or how
items should be recognised in the consolidated financial statements
and estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts of assets and
liabilities, income and expenses reported in the consolidated
financial statements. Actual amounts and results could differ from
these estimates. The critical areas of accounting estimates and
judgement are the same as those disclosed in the 2021 HFI report in
the Prospectus and the Group's Registration Statement on Form 20-F
dated 1 June 2022.
2 REVENUE AND SEGMENT INFORMATION
Analysis of revenue by geography is included below, the
composition of these geographical segments is reviewed on an annual
basis.
For management reporting purposes, the Group is organised into
business units based on geographical areas and has three reportable
segments, as follows:
- North America
- Europe, Middle East, Africa and Latin America (EMEA and
LatAm)
- Asia Pacific (APAC)
No operating segments have been aggregated to form the above
reportable operating segments.
The primary products sold by each of the reportable segments
consist of Oral Health, Vitamin, Minerals and Supplements (VMS),
Pain Relief, Respiratory Health, Digestive Health and Other
products and the product portfolio is consistent across the
reportable segments.
The Commercial Operations Board is the Chief Operating Decision
Maker ("CODM") who monitors the operating results of the Group's
business units separately for the purpose of making decisions about
resource allocation and performance assessment. The CODM uses a
measure of Adjusted operating profit to assess the performance of
the reportable segments. The CODM does not review IFRS operating
profit or total assets and liabilities on a segment basis.

3 IMPAIRMENT REVIEW
During the period ended 30 June 2022, Robitussin was still
recovering from a lower cold & flu incidence resulting from the
COVID-19 social distancing measures, and Preparation H was affected
by supply constraints. The Group has performed a sensitivity
analysis based on changes in key assumptions considered to be
reasonably possible by management leaving all other assumptions
unchanged. Sensitivity analysis for the period ended 30 June 2022
has identified these two brands as being sensitive to reasonably
possible changes in key assumptions. In order for the recoverable
amount to be equal to the carrying values of Robitussin and
Preparation H, either the discount rate would have to be increased
by 0.7% and 0.2% (31 December 2021: increased by 0.5% and 0.1%), or
the operating margin decreased by 5.3% and 3.0% (31 December 2021:
decreased by 4.1% and 1.5%), or the long term growth rate decreased
by 1.0% and 0.3% (31 December 2021: decreased by 0.7% and 0.2%)
respectively. The Group considers that changes in key assumptions
of this magnitude are reasonably possible in the current
environment.
Other than as disclosed above, the directors do not consider
that any reasonably possible changes in the key assumptions would
cause the fair value less costs of disposal of the individually
significant brands to fall below their carrying values.
4 EXCHANGE RATES
The Group operates in many countries and earns revenues and
incurs costs in many currencies. The results of the Group, as
reported in Sterling, are affected by movements in exchange rates
between Sterling and other currencies. Average exchange rates, as
modified by specific transaction rates for large transactions,
prevailing during the period, are used to translate the results and
cash flows of overseas subsidiaries into Sterling. Period-end rates
are used to translate the net assets of those entities. The
currencies which most influenced these translations and the
relevant exchange rates were disclosed in the table below.

effective tax rate applicable for the full year. This is then
applied to the pre-tax profit of the interim period, with the tax
due on adjusting items considered on an item by item basis.

8. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RELATED DISCLOSURES
Financial assets and liabilities held at fair value are
categorised by the valuation methodology applied in determining
their fair value. Where possible, quoted prices in active markets
are used (Level 1). Where such prices are not available, the asset
or liability is classified as Level 2, provided all significant
inputs to the valuation model used are based on observable market
data. If one or more of the significant inputs to the valuation
model is not based on observable market data, the instrument is
classified as Level 3.

- Cash and cash equivalents carried at amortised costs, Liquid
investments, Trade and other receivables and certain other
non-current assets, Loan amounts owing from/(to) related parties,
Trade and other payables and certain other non-current liabilities
- approximates to the carrying amount
- Interest rate swaps and foreign exchange forward contracts -
based on present value of contractual cash flows using market
sourced data (exchange rates or interest rates) at the balance
sheet date
- Short-term loans and overdrafts - approximates to the carrying
amount because of the short maturity of these instruments
- Long-term loans - based on quoted market price (a level 2 fair
value measurement) for European and US Medium Term Notes
9 RESTRUCTURING, SEPARATION AND ADMISSION COST
Restructuring
Restructuring costs mainly include personnel costs, impairments
of tangible assets and computer software relating to restructuring
programmes. The Group's restructuring costs in HY 2022 totalled
GBP20m (HY 2021: GBP77m) and were primarily related to activities
to generate synergies from the continued integration of the Pfizer
Group's Consumer Healthcare business into the Group's business.
Separation and admission cost
Separation and admission costs include costs incurred in
relation to and in connection with the separation and listing of
the Group as a standalone business and mainly include: costs for
disentangling systems and processes previously shared with the GSK
Group, costs for separating the corporate functions from the GSK
Group, costs in relation to the preparation and audit of public
documents required for the admission of the Company for trading on
the London Stock Exchange and New York Stock Exchange and sponsor
fees. Separation and admission costs totalled GBP229m in H1 2022
(H1 2021: GBP105m)

Diluted earnings per share 5.6 5.3
---------------------------- ------------- ------------
Basic earnings per share for all periods presented have been
adjusted retrospectively as required by IAS 33 "Earnings per share"
to reflect the share structure of the Company due to the increase
in the number of ordinary shares outstanding as a result of the
Demerger activities that took place in July 2022. Basic earnings
per share has been calculated by dividing the profit attributable
to shareholders by the Company's weighted average number of shares
in issue, with 9,234,573,831 shares outstanding as at the date of
the report. Diluted earnings per share has been calculated after
adjusting the weighted average number of shares used in the basic
calculation to assume the conversion of all potentially dilutive
shares. However, there are no dilutive equity instruments.
As a part of the Demerger activities, the Company issued
25,000,000 non-voting preference shares of GBP1.00 each to Pfizer
Inc. These non-voting preference shares are not dilutive in
nature.

earnings per share are reconciled below:

GSK Group, on 16 March 2022, GSK Consumer Healthcare Capital UK plc
and GSK Consumer Healthcare Capital NL B.V. (subsidiary

GBP10,000,000,000 Euro Medium Term Note Programme (the "Programme")
pursuant to which the EMTN Issuers may issue notes from time to
time. The EMTN Issuers have issued the notes described under
"Pre-Separation Programme Notes" below under the Programme during
the period ended 30 June 2022.
In addition, on 24 March 2022 the US Issuer and GSK Consumer
Healthcare Capital UK plc issued a number of standalone bonds
pursuant to a private placement to institutional investors in the
USA and outside the USA in reliance on exemptions from the
registration requirements of the US Securities Act (as described
under "Pre-Separation USD Notes" below).
The payment of all amounts owing in respect of: (i) notes issued
under the Programme (including the notes in issuance, as described
under "Pre-Separation Programme Notes" below); and (ii) the
Pre-Separation USD Notes is guaranteed by the Company. As at 30
June 2022, the Group had long-term borrowings excluding lease
liabilities of GBP9,819m (30 June 2021, 31 December 2021: GBPnil),
of which GBP5,235m (30 June 2021, 31 December 2021: GBPnil) fell
due in more than five years. The average effective pre-swap
interest rate of all notes in issue as at 30 June 2022 was
approximately 2.93% (30 June 2021, 31 December 2021: nil).
Long-term borrowings repayable after five years carry interest
at effective rates between 1.75% and 3.86%, with repayment dates
ranging from 2028 to 2052.

Share premium was recognised on shares issued by CHHL2, the
ultimate holding company of the Group as at 30 June 2022, except
where CHHL2 has applied merger relief under Section 612 of the
Companies Act 2006. In such cases the excess of the fair value of
the assets and liabilities recognised into the Group, over the
nominal value of the share issued has been added to merger reserve
as per table disclosed above.
During the period ended 30 June 2022, CHHL2 issued one D
Deferred share of GBP21,758,402,221 to GSKCHHL. The D Deferred
share was non-redeemable and did not carry any voting rights,
dividend rights or rights in the event of a return of capital.
Subsequently, CHHL2 cancelled the fully paid up D Deferred share of
GBP21,758m in the share capital of CHHL2 held by GSKCHHL, to
convert the share capital into distributable profits.
CHHL2 also issued one Deferred share of one penny to GSKCHHL for
a consideration of GBP70m reflected in share premium. The Deferred
share is non-redeemable and does not carry any voting rights,
dividend rights or rights in the event of a return of capital.
On 29 June 2022, as part of the acquisition of the legal
ownership of the India consumer healthcare business from the GSK
Group, the Group declared a dividend of GBP56m to GlaxoSmithKline
Consumer Healthcare Holdings Limited ("GSKCHHL"). This dividend was
offset in full against the liability owed by GSKCHHL to the
Group.

paid at 1.365% and are repayable on demand. As at 31 December 2021,
the loan amounts owing from related parties of GBP1,508m were held
with GSK Finance companies as part of the Group's banking
arrangements paid at the new risk free benchmark rate - 0.05% and
were repayable on demand. The balance disclosed in this note
includes interests receivable for the loan amounts of GBP33m, which
is presented within Trade and other receivables on the condensed
consolidated balance sheet.
GBP3m (Dec 2021: GBP825m) loan amounts owing to related parties
are held with GSK Financing companies as part of the Group's
banking arrangements. These balances are unsecured with interest
largely received at the new risk free benchmark rate + 0.10% (31
December 2021: new risk free benchmark rate + 0.10%) and are
repayable on demand.
14 CONTINGENT LIABILITIES
Legal proceedings
The Group may become involved in significant legal proceedings
in respect of which it is not possible to determine whether a
potential outflow is probable. With respect to each of the legal
proceedings described below and on page 292-95 of the Group's
prospectus and pages 204-07 of the 20-F, other than those for which
a provision has been made, the Group is unable to make a reliable
estimate of the expected financial effect at this stage.
The Group's position could change over time, and, therefore,
there can be no assurance that any losses that result from the
outcome of any legal proceedings will not exceed by a material
amount the amount of the provisions reported in the Group's
financial statements. If this were to happen, it could have a
material adverse impact on the results of operations of the Group
in the reporting period in which the judgements are incurred or the
settlements entered into.
Zantac Litigation
GSK and/or Pfizer have been named as defendants (alongside other
manufacturers of ranitidine, as well as retailers and distributors)
in personal injury lawsuits filed in the US involving Zantac, the
bulk of which are pending in a Multidistrict Litigation ("MDL") in
the Southern District of Florida. There are also numerous unfiled
claims added to a registry implemented by the court presiding over
the MDL. Class actions alleging economic injury and medical
monitoring have also been filed in federal court. In addition to
the product liability cases filed in the MDL, cases have been filed
in several State Courts.
Outside the US, there are class actions and individual actions
pending against GSK and Pfizer in Canada, along with a class action
against GSK in Israel.
The Group is not a party to any Zantac claims and the Group has
never marketed Zantac in any form in the US or Canada. The Group is
not primarily liable for any OTC or prescription Zantac claims.
Pursuant to certain provisions in the Stock and Asset Purchase
Agreement ("SAPA"), GSK and Pfizer have each served the Group with
notice of potential claims for indemnification relating to OTC
Zantac. Haleon has also notified GSK and Pfizer that it rejects
their requests for indemnification on the basis that the scope of
the indemnities set out in the joint venture agreement only covers
their consumer healthcare businesses as conducted when the JV was
formed in 2018. At that time, neither GSK nor Pfizer marketed OTC
Zantac in the US or Canada. It is not possible, at this stage, to
meaningfully assess whether the outcome will result in a probable
outflow, or to quantify or reliably estimate what liability (if
any) that the Group may have to GSK and/or Pfizer under the claimed
indemnities.
15 POST BALANCE SHEET EVENTS
On 6 July 2022, the shareholders of GSK plc voted to approve all
resolutions required to implement the Demerger activities.
On 12 July 2022, the Directors of CHHL2, the ultimate holding
company of the Group as at 30 June 2022, approved a pre separation
cash dividend and a final sweep dividend for a total amount of
GBP11,004m which was paid to CHHL2's equity shareholders on 13 July
2022. Out of the total dividends of GBP11,004m, GBP7,483m was paid
to GSKCHHL, and GBP3,521m was paid to PF Consumer Healthcare
Holdings LLC ("PFCHHL"). The dividends paid to GSKCHHL and PFCHHL
were distributed onward to GSK plc and Pfizer Inc respectively. An
additional balancing dividend of GBP53m was declared to GSKCHHL on
12 July 2022 and paid on 13 July 2022.
On 12 July 2022, as part of the acquisition of the legal
ownership of the India consumer healthcare business from the GSK
Group, the Group declared an additional dividend of GBP23m to
GSKCHHL. This dividend was offset in full against the liability
owed by GSKCHHL to the Group.
During the first half of July 2022, the Group underwent a
business reorganisation by which it either sold or declared a
dividend in specie consisting of some of its subsidiary
undertakings to GSKCHHL. As a consequence of the demerger
activities, all these subsidiary undertakings became wholly owned
subsidiaries of the Company. From an accounting perspective, these
subsidiary undertakings will remain consolidated into the
financials results of the Group throughout the whole year.
On 13 July 2022, the Group drew down GBP1,493m under a 3-year
term loan from its term loan facility in preparation for the
payment of the pre separation cash dividend and the final sweep
dividend. The interest rate of on the loan was based on the
Sterling Overnight Interbank Average rate (SONIA) + 0.976%.
On 15 July 2022, the Group utilised the GBP9,211m principal loan
amounts owing from related parties plus
GBP33m of interest to partially fund the pre separation cash
dividend and the final sweeper dividend.
On 15 July 2022, the Company issued 5,084,190,079 ordinary
shares of GBP1.25 each to the shareholders of GSK plc to satisfy
the demerger dividend in specie declared by GSK plc, in exchange
for GSK plc transferring in its entirety its Ordinary A shares in
GSKCHHL to the Company. Upon the completion of this share-for-share
exchange, GSKCHHL became a non-wholly owned subsidiary of the
Company, with the Company holding a majority controlling equity
interest of 80.08% in GSKCHHL, which held 62% equity interest in
the Group on this date.
On 17 July 2022, the Company issued:
-- 692,593,037 ordinary shares of GBP1.25 each to the Scottish
Limited Partnerships established by the GSK Group companies, in
exchange for the Scottish Limited Partnerships transferring in
their entirety their Ordinary C shares in GSKCHHL to the Company.
Upon the completion of this share-for-share exchange, GSKCHHL
became a non-wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, with the
Company holding a majority controlling equity interest of 91.118%
in GSKCHHL.
-- 502,727,073 ordinary shares of GBP1.25 each to GSK plc, in
exchange for GSK plc transferring in its entirety its Ordinary B
shares in GSKCHHL to the Company. Upon the completion of this
share-for-share exchange, GSKCHHL became a wholly owned subsidiary
of the Company.
-- 2,955,063,626 ordinary shares of GBP1.25 each, and 25,000,000
non-voting preference shares of GBP1.00 each to Pfizer Inc., in
exchange for Pfizer Inc., the ultimate parent company of PFCHHL,
transferring in its entirety its shareholding in PFCHHL to the
Company. Upon the completion of this share-for-share exchange,
PFCHHL became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.
On 18 July 2022, regular trading of the Company's ordinary
shares commenced on the main market of the London Stock Exchange
(as a constituent of the FTSE 100).
On 22 July 2022, regular-way trading of the Company's American
Depositary Shares commenced on the New York Stock Exchange, having
trade on a when-issued basis from 18 July 2022 to 21 July 2022.
In July 2022, the Group established a GBP2bn Euro commercial
paper programme and a $10bn US Dollar commercial paper programme
pursuant to which members of the Group may issue commercial paper
from time to time.
On 3 August 2022, the Company reduced the nominal value of the
Company's Ordinary Shares from GBP1.25 per share to GBP0.01 per
share for an aggregate value of GBP11,451m, and cancelled in
entirety its share premium balance of GBP10,607m in accordance with
Companies Act 2006.
Consistent with the Group's deleveraging commitments, GBP500m of
the term loan was repaid in August 2022 and a further GBP250m in
September 2022 all through a combination of operating cash-flows
and proceeds from commercial paper issuance.

of the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements
contained in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section
21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). Forward-looking
statements give Haleon's current expectations and projections about
future events, including strategic initiatives and future financial
condition and performance, and so Haleon's actual results may
differ materially from what is expressed or implied by such
forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements sometimes
use words such as "expects", "anticipates", "believes", "targets",
"plans" "intends", "aims", "projects", "indicates", "may", "might",

Any forward-looking statements made by or on behalf of Haleon
speak only as of the date they are made and are based upon the
knowledge and information available to Haleon on the date of this
document. These forward-looking statements and views may be based
on a number of assumptions and, by their nature, involve known and

Such risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause
Haleon's actual results, performance or achievements to differ
materially from those in the forward-looking statements include,
but are not limited to, those discussed under "Risk Factors" on
pages 17 to 45 of Haleon's prospectus and under "Risk Factors" in
Haleon's Registration Statement on Form 20-F and pages 15 to 16 of
this release. Forward-looking statements should, therefore, be
construed in light of such risk factors and undue reliance should
not be placed on forward-looking statements.
Subject to our obligations under English and U.S. law in
relation to disclosure and ongoing information (including under the
Market Abuse Regulations, the UK Listing Rules and the Disclosure
and Transparency Rules of the Financial Conduct Authority ("FCA")),
we undertake no obligation to update publicly or revise any
forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information,
future events or otherwise. You should, however, consult any

it publishes and/or files with the SEC and take note of these
disclosures, wherever you are located.
No statement in this document is or is intended to be a profit
forecast or profit estimate.
Use of non-IFRS measures (unaudited)
We use certain alternative performance measures to make
financial, operating, and planning decisions and to evaluate and
report performance. We believe these measures provide useful
information to investors and as such, where clearly identified, we
have included certain alternative performance measures in this
document to allow investors to better analyse our business
performance and allow greater comparability. To do so, we have
excluded items affecting the comparability of period-over-period
financial performance. Adjusted Results and other non-IFRS measures
may be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for or
superior to, information presented in accordance with IFRS.
Adjusted results (unaudited)
Adjusted Results comprise Adjusted gross profit, Adjusted gross
profit margin, Adjusted operating profit, Adjusted operating profit
margin, Adjusted profit before taxation, Adjusted profit after
taxation, Adjusted profit attributable to shareholders, Adjusted
basic earnings per share, Adjusted diluted earnings per share,
Adjusted cost of sales, Adjusted Selling, General and
Administration ("SG&A"), Adjusted Research and Development
("R&D"), Adjusted other operating income, Adjusted net finance
costs, Adjusted taxation charge, and Adjusted profit attributable
to non-controlling interests. Adjusted Results exclude Net
amortisation and impairment of intangible assets, Restructuring
costs, Transaction-related costs, Separation and Admission costs,
and Disposals and other costs, in each case net of the impact of
taxes (where applicable) (collectively, the "Adjusting Items",
which are defined later in this section).
Management believes that Adjusted Results, when considered
together with the Group's operating results as reported under IFRS,
provide investors, analysts and other stakeholders with helpful
complementary information to understand the financial performance
and position of the Group from period to period and allow the
Group's performance to be more easily comparable.

Constant currency (unaudited)
The Group's presentation currency is Pounds Sterling, but the
Group's significant international operations give rise to
fluctuations in foreign exchange rates. To neutralise foreign
exchange impact and to better illustrate the change in results from
one year to the next, the Group discusses its results both on an
"as reported basis" or using "actual exchange rates" ("AER") (local
currency results translated into Pounds Sterling at the prevailing
foreign exchange rate) and using constant currency exchange rates
("CER"). To calculate results on a constant currency basis, prior
year exchange rates are used to restate current year comparatives.
The currencies which most influence the constant currency results
of the Group and their exchange rates are shown in the below
table.

Organic revenue growth (unaudited)
Organic revenue growth represents the change in organic revenue
at CER from one accounting period to the next. Organic revenue
represents revenue, as determined under IFRS but excluding the
impact of acquisitions, divestments and closures of brands or
businesses, revenue attributable to manufacturing service
agreements ("MSAs") relating to divestments and the closure of
sites or brands, and the impact of currency exchange movements.
Revenue attributable to MSAs relating to divestments and
production site closures has been removed from organic revenue
because these agreements are transitionary and, with respect to
production site closures, include a ramp-down period in which
revenue attributable to MSAs gradually reduces several months
before the production site closes. This revenue reduces the
comparability of prior and current year revenue and is therefore
adjusted for in the calculation of organic revenue growth.
Organic revenue is calculated period-to-period as follows, with
prior year exchange rates to restate current year comparatives:
- current year organic revenue excludes revenue from brands or
businesses acquired in the current accounting period;
- current year organic revenue excludes revenue attributable to
brands or businesses acquired in the prior year from 1 January of
the comparative period to the date of completion of the
acquisition;
- prior year organic revenue excludes revenue in respect of
brands or businesses divested or closed in the current accounting
period from 12 months prior to the completion of the disposal or
closure until the end of the prior accounting period;
- prior year organic revenue excludes revenue in respect of
brands or businesses divested or closed in the previous accounting
period in full; and
- prior year and current year organic revenue excludes revenue
attributable to MSAs relating to divestments and production site
closures taking place in either the current or prior year, each an
"Organic Adjustment".
To calculate organic revenue growth for the period, organic
revenue for the prior year is subtracted from organic revenue in
the current year and divided by organic revenue in the prior
year.
The Group believes that discussing organic revenue growth
contributes to the understanding of the Group's performance and
trends because it allows for a year-on-year comparison of revenue
in a meaningful and consistent manner.
Organic revenue growth by individual region is further discussed
by price and volume/mix changes, which are defined as follows:
- Price: Defined as the variation in revenue attributable to
changes in prices during the period. Price excludes the impact to
organic revenue growth due to (i) the volume of products sold
during the period and (ii) the composition of products sold during
the period. Price is calculated as current year net price minus
prior year net price multiplied by current year volume. Net price
is the sales price, after deduction of any trade, cash or volume
discounts that can be reliably estimated at point of sale. Value
added tax and other sales taxes are excluded from the net
price.
- Volume/Mix: Defined as the variation in revenue attributable
to changes in volumes in the period.
The following tables reconcile reported revenue growth for the
six-month periods ended 30 June 2022 and 2021 to constant currency
and organic revenue for the same period by geographical segment and
product category:

Adjusted EBITDA (unaudited)
Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as Earnings Before Interest, Tax,
Depreciation and Amortisation (EBITDA), after adding back items
impacting the comparability of period over period financial
performance. Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect cash expenditures, or
future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual
commitments. Further, adjusted EBITDA does not reflect changes in,
or cash requirements for, working capital needs, and although
depreciation and amortisation are non-cash charges, the assets
being depreciated and amortised are likely to be replaced in the
future and adjusted EBITDA does not reflect cash requirements for
such replacements.
Adjusted EBITDA for the six-month periods ended 30 June 2022 and

Free cash flow (unaudited)
Free cash flow is calculated as net cash inflow from operating
activities plus cash inflows from the sale of intangible assets,
the sale of property, plant and equipment and interest received,
less cash outflows for the purchase of intangible assets, the
purchase of property, plant and equipment, distributions to
non-controlling interests and net interest.
Management believes free cash flow is meaningful to investors
because it is the measures of the funds generated by the Group
available for distribution of dividends, repayment of debt or to
fund the Group's strategic initiatives, including acquisitions. The
purpose of presenting free cash flow is to indicate the ongoing
cash generation within the control of the Group after taking
account of the necessary cash expenditures for maintaining the
capital and operating structure of the Group (in the form of
payments of interest, corporate taxation and capital

profit after tax that is converted into free cash flow as defined
above. Free cash flow conversion is calculated as follows:
Six months to 30 June

Net debt (unaudited)
Net debt at a period end is calculated as short-term borrowings
(including bank overdrafts and short-term lease liabilities),
long-term borrowings (including long-term lease liabilities), and
derivative financial liabilities less cash and cash equivalents and
derivative financial assets.
Management analyses the key cash flow items driving the movement
in net debt to understand and assess cash performance and
utilisation in order to maximise the efficiency with which
resources are allocated. The analysis of cash movements in net debt
allows management to more clearly identify thelevel of cash
generated from operations that remains available for distribution
after servicing the Group's debt. In addition, the ratio of net
debt to adjusted EBITDA is used by investors, analysts and credit
rating agencies to analyse our operating performance in the context
of targeted financial leverage. Net debt is calculated as
follows:
As at 30 As at 31 December
June 2022 2021
-------------- ------------------
