revenue increases by 1%, reflecting the FX move. As flagged previously, we Chitrita C Sinha AC

continue to expect an H1/H2 weighting of c.46%/54% on revenue and c.40%/60% (44-20) 7742-7176

on adj. operating profit. The profit split is slightly higher than history due to project chitrita.sinha@jpmorgan.com
