0•Good morning everyone and thank you for attending our Financial Results Briefing despite
your busy schedules. I’m Yoshimatsu.
•Today, I would like to brief you on the highlight of financial results for the 1st Quarter and ourplan for the 2nd Quarter.

1

•I will start with a review of the 1st Quarter.

2• The slide illustrates our sales volume in the 1st Quarter.
• Compared with plans, both CCW and Shikoku CCBC delivered positive growth in volume
by 3.3% in total of both companies.
• On the other hand, our sales volume increased by 14.1% year-on-year to 6.25 million cases,
partly because of incorporating 3.97 million cases sold by Shikoku CCBC in the 1st Quarter.
• Even excluding the impact of Shikoku CCBC, our volume increased by 5.2% from theprevious fiscal year. With volume outperforming the previous year in all months fromJanuary to March, we have maintained the good momentum since the 4th Quarter of 2015.

3• Now, let’s take a look at the sales volume by channel.
• Key channels outperformed the volume plans.
• In terms of year-over-year comparison, volume growth in Supermarket and Convenience
stores contributed to the overall positive results. In supermarket, the volume grew by 7%
through new product launches and implementation of non-price promotions.
• Also in Convenience store, sales volume delivered 2-digit growth, increasing by 14.9% fromthe previous year driven by new products including “Georgia” and “I Lohas” as well as
double-chop products jointly developed with customers we launched last year.
• Furthermore, sales volume in Vending continued to stay positive versus previous year since
January this year, resulting with positive 2.4% in total from January to March. Expansion of
the Vending market from the previous year and new placement of vending machines
exceeding last year contributed to the volume growth.
• As we began to see benefits of new product launches and sales activities in each channel in
addition to expansion of market in all channels, sales volume in key channels have grown
together with share.
• Next, I would like to elaborate you on the status of our initiatives in Supermarket with thenext slide.

4• In Supermarket, we have been working on RGM aiming to raise revenue and profits.
• We took actions in 3 strategies of ensured sales activities based on price guidelines, valuecommunication upon new product launches and execution of non-price promotions in the 1st
Quarter.
• Particularly solid results have been seen in Drugstore and Discounter where competitions are
fierce thanks to ensured activities I just mentioned.
• The graphs in the slide show sales volume of 2 key products in Drugstore and Discounter by
the price point. You can see improvement trend this year as the overall sales volume shiftedfrom low to high price point compared with last year.
• We also continued to manage compliance to the lowest permissible wholesale price of“Guardrail”, addressing sales below the price.
• As a result of these efforts, per-case revenue has been on the rise from last year in Drugstore
and Discounter, showing signs of per-case revenue growth in the segments having severe
price competitions with many low price products.

5• Next is sales volume by the package.
• Sales volume of all packages except for Syrup and Powder turned positive compared withplans.
• Against previous year, sales volume of highly profitable small PET outperformed the growthof large PET. This is attributable to the volume growth of small PET in Convenience stores
and Vending.
• Sales volume of CAN also turned positive by 2.5% from the previous year owing to the steadysales growth of bottle CAN.

6• Next is sales volume by the brand.
• With a 4.5% positive, core 8 in total contributed to the overall positive results against plans.
• We reinforced promotional activities for “Coca-Cola” and “Coca-Cola Zero” leveraging thelaunch of original items aligned with a global campaign deployed from January. “Georgia”“Ayataka” and “I Lohas” also made steady sales growth with new products, helping
incremental volume growth.
• “Georgia” turned positive by 6.6% from the previous year led by co-developed products withcustomers launched last year and sales of “The Premium”. The trend of growth exceeding theprevious year continued since the 2nd Quarter of last year.
• “Ayataka” has also made steady growth. Both sales volume and market share grew throughreinforced sales of 2 lineups “Ayataka” and “Ayataka Maroyakajitate”. Furthermore, the salevolume delivered 2-digit growth partly driven by “Ayataka Nigorihonoka” launched on March
21.
• “I Lohas” achieved 33% growth from the previous year with major contribution of a flavor
water “I Lohas Momo”.
• With that, I would like to finish my briefing on sales status.

7• From page 8, I would like to brief you on our financial summary of the 1st Quarter.
• We generated revenue of 100.545 billion yen,operating profits of 2.209 billion yen,ordinary profits of 2.069 billion yen andcurrent net profits of 953 million yen.
• Revenue increased both from plan and last year. Operating profits also exceeded the plan by 2.5
billion yen and recorded with a 3.4 billion increase even against the previous year.

8• Now, I would like to brief you on variance factors of performances.
First is against plans.
• Coca-Cola business generated positive gross profits by 1.6 billion yen with 3.5 billion
revenue growth thanks to sales volume exceeding plans.
Furthermore, operating profits turned positive by 2.1 billion yen against the plan as SG&A
decreased from the plan.
• On the other hand, Healthcare & skincare business slightly underperformed the revenue
plan. However, operating profits registered positive by 400 million yen against the plan
thanks to SG&A cost reductions in addition to increased gross profits due to changes in
product mix.

9• The graph on page 10 shows variance factors of operating profits against plans.
• Operating profits of Coca-Cola business exceeded the plan by 2.1 billion yen.
• Marginal profits turned positive by 800 million yen with sales volume outperforming theplans in all channels.
• SCM also generated impacts of productivity & efficiency improvements exceeding theplan by 300 million yen.
• The review of all activities we worked on since last year further reduced costs exceeding
the plan and contributed to the positive results of operating profits.
Please note, however, that we have made capital investments according to the plan in the
1st Quarter for solid future growth in our journey of another 3-year mid-term plan beganfrom this year.
• In Healthcare & skincare business, operating profits exceeded the plan by 400 million
yen thanks to the right use of advertisement & media costs by defining consumer
attraction efficiencies in addition to product mix contributing to the increase of grossprofits exceeding the plan.

10• Following is comparisons with the previous year.
• Coca-Cola business saw gross profit increase of a 5.7 billion yen with increased revenueof a 9.4 billion yen from the previous year by incorporating the performances of
Shikoku CCBC from January to March, in addition to sales volume increase.
• By incorporating 3.7 billion yen of SG&A of Shikoku CCBC from January to March,
Coca-Cola business in total managed to keep at the increase of a 2.5 billion yen as CCW
reduced the amount with operating profit exceeding 3.2 billion yen from last year.
• Revenue of Healthcare & skincare business stayed flat from last year. However,operating profits increased by 200 million yen from last year with SG&A cost saving in
addition to a 100 million yen increase of gross profits thanks to changes in product mix.

11• The graph on page 12 indicates variance factors of operating profits against the previous year.
• Marginal profits in Coca-Cola business increased by 1 billion yen from the previous year
helped by sales volume growth in Chain store.
• Operating profits also rose by 3.2 billion yen from the previous year as a result of cost
reductions through fundamental review of operations in addition to a 400 million yen worthof SCM impacts generated by improvement of production efficiencies along with sales
volume increase.
• Healthcare & skincare business saw a 200 million yen increase of operating profits from theprevious year thanks to greater sales of highly profitable skincare products.
• As a result of these efforts, we closed with consolidated operating profits at 2.2 billion yen,exceeding 3.4 billion yen from the year earlier when we had negative operating profits of 1.2
billion yen.
• With that, I would like to finish my briefing on our 1st Quarter performances.

12•Let me now move on to our plans for the 2nd Quarter.

13

• First, I would like to touch on Coca-Cola business.
This is sales volume plans by the channel.
• Without changing the initial plan, we aim to grow 1.9% of sales volume in the 2nd Quarter
from the previous year.
• For Shikoku CCBC, we project sales volume of 5.04 million cases in the 2nd Quarter.
Together with CCW, we forecast 60.88 million cases in the 2nd Quarter for Coca-Colabusiness in total, increasing the volume by 6.06 million cases or up by 11.1% from the year
earlier.
• By the channel, we aim to grow in expanding markets of Supermarket and Convenience
stores, expecting positive growth of 3.8% and 6.8% from the year earlier respectively.
• On the other hand, we forecast Vending volume conservatively with negative from theprevious year reflecting the market trend.
• Note, however, that we will strive to outperform the plan with promotions exclusively forvending machines in the 2nd Quarter along with the momentum generated by new
installation of vending machines exceeding the plan in the 1st Quarter.

14• Now, let me explain our sales strategies beginning with RGM initiatives in Supermarket. We will
increase revenue and profits by combining the 3 elements of “Raising wholesale prices in trade”,“Improvement of product mix” and “sales volume growth”.
• First, we will work on advancing “Price guideline” and “Guardrail” which refers to the lowest
permissible wholesale price.
• In the advancement of “Price guideline”, we will focus our efforts in reinforcing package lineup
and leveraging sub-flavors to enable sales at the right price point according to the Price guideline.
• Specifically we will differentiate 2 package prices of 1.5L PET and 1L PET to increase the overallsales of 1.5LPET that has shifted to the lower price point to the right price range while reinforcing
coverage of 1L PET.
• For the advancement of “Guardrail”, we have identified the appropriate “Guardrail” price per
product according to regions and customer competition environments since April. We will further
raise overall revenue per case by conducting sales activities based on the “Guardrail” going
forward.
• We will also introduce highly value-added, high price new products, in addition to conducting
non-price promotions tied-up with famous cartoons and Disney.
• We began to see steady results of RGM initiatives in the 1st Quarter with per-case revenue
improvements of large PET that tends to be the target for discount in Drugstore and Discounter
where price competition is intense. We will further focus our efforts even in the 2nd Quarter toattain revenue and profit growth.

15• Next, I would like to describe our Vending strategies. We will transform the Vending businessby executing strategies from 3 perspectives of “Revenue growth”, “Productivity
enhancement” and “Efficiency”.
• For the 1st element of Revenue growth, we have launched a promotion leveraging an exclusive
app for smartphones from April 8. This is a completely new trial that allows consumers to
exchange with products of their choice with collected stamps as they receive upon every
purchase from the applicable vending machines.
• We plan to scale the promotion with 24,000 vending machines in the 2nd Quarter by
accelerating replacement with the vending machines adoptive to the promotion. We aim to
deploy the promotion in the scale of 60,000 vending machines by the end of this year.
With this promotion as a trigger, we strive to increase sales per machine by raising
attractiveness of vending machines though which we offer new values to consumers.
• We also plan to newly install 6,400 vending machines in the 2nd Quarter.
We were able to capture new locations more than the plan in the 1st Quarter. We will continue
to strive increasing sales volume in the 2nd Quarter by gaining prime locations with effective
use of new machines to be launched this year.

16• For the 2nd initiative to raise profitability, we will continue to work on improvement of
unprofitable locations and review of trade terms with customers. In the 1st Quarter, we generated
total profit contribution of a 50 million yen with the improvement of unprofitable locations by 30
million yen and review of trade terms by 20 million yen. We will build up the impacts by fullycommitting to the initiatives in the 2nd Quarter onwards.
• We will also strive to raise per-case revenue by launching appropriate products and packages
according to locations as well as improving product mix.
• For the 3rd initiative of efficiency, we address short- and mid-term challenges we face led by“Vending Business Transformation Project” launched this year.
• Firstly we will streamline vending operations as quick-wins to address short-term challenges bycompletely removing stressful, wasteful and uneven work. To be specific, we will work on
enabling optimum call frequency and the operation structure according to locational
characteristics and enhancing operation efficiencies by the use of IT.
• Furthermore, we will also revisit operation processes from every direction even in terms of tasks
at sales offices and sites such as product picking and proceeds settlement.
• Please note that we have already kick-started some initiatives at selected sites.
• On the other hand, we have moved forward a study to build a highly competitive vending
business model as a mid-term challenge.

17• Next, let’s look at sales volume plans by the brand.
• We will reinforce raising market competitiveness of this year’s key focus brands andcategories of “Sparkling”, “Coffee”, “Non-sugar tea” as well as “Water & Sports”. In
addition, we will strategically introduce new products to capture new growth opportunities.

18

• Now, let me explain about our brand strategies.
• For Coca-Cola brand both with Coca-Cola and Coca-Cola zero, we aim to grow 4.7% from theprevious year with the ongoing “Stamp bottle campaign” tied-up with famous artists.
• With Georgia, we strive to attain a 4.4% growth, projecting positive from the year earlier evenfor the 2nd Quarter.
Along with “The Premium Bito” bottle CAN launched on March 21 as a key new product for thegrowing bottle CAN market, we will strengthen the sales in the 2nd Quarter.
• “Georgia Cold Brew” to be launched on May 23 is also a product in a new category that enabled
taste free from off-flavor with new technology of low temperature extraction.
By thoroughly communicating attractiveness of the product, we aim to capture new consumer
base who normally do not drink canned coffee. We will further extend packages throughintroduction of bottled coffee and coffee bag.
• In addition, we will launch “Glaceau Sleepwater” with functional claim first in the Coca-Colasystem and energy drink of “Real Gold Works” as products with high added-values and price.
• Furthermore, we introduced “Yogurstand” in the lactic beverage market and “Minutemaid
Otonano Zeitaku Ringo” in 100% juice market in order to gain more sales in low share markets.
• These are the explanation on Coca-Cola business.

19• Next is on Healthcare & skincare business.
Let me first briefly introduce the business.
• Our wholly-owned subsidiary of Q’sai Co., Ltd. mainly runs Healthcare & skincare businessby producing and offering Healthcare & skincare products.
• Healthcare products include “Kale Aojiru” using 100% domestic grown Kale and “Kneesupport Collagen” with functional claim as well as “Glucosamine Z” and they constitute 65%
of overall revenue of Healthcare & skincare business.
• On the other hand, we place “Cola-rich” as a mainstay of skincare products.
We strive to boost sales by launching various extensions such as all-in-one beauty jell cream“Cola-rich” and “Cola-rich BB cream” and presenting products according to the needs ofconsumers.
• Note that its main sales channel is home-shopping which makes up approximately 90% of
total revenue.

20• These are status of the 1st Quarter and sales strategies for Healthcare & skincare business for the
2nd Quarter.
• Revenue from Healthcare products in the 1st Quarter increased from the year earlier in the joint
category thanks to stronger advertisement of “Knee-support Collagen” and “Glucosamine Z”
launched last year with functional claim.
• We will boost sales in the 2nd Quarter by revisiting contents of home-shopping programs in the
joint category. Also, we will move forward preparations for functional claim foods to belaunched into markets after July.
• While revenue of Healthcare products continued to underperform the plan and the previous year,
we aim to grow through these initiatives as well as fulfillment of collaborations with Coca-Colabusiness as mid-term strategies.
• On the other hand, we improved consumer attraction efficiency in the 1st Quarter with theskincare product of our mainstay “Cola-rich” through full renewal of home-shopping programs
based on the analysis of consumer needs. We also expanded transactions per person by
reinforcing sales of associated products to existing consumers.
• As a result, revenue of skincare products turned positive by 11% from the year earlier with thegrowth exceeding the market. The skincare products contributed to the profit growth of
Healthcare & skincare business because of high profitability compared with healthcare products.
• We will further increase revenue in the 2nd Quarter by newly launching “BB powder
foundation” on May 1.
• These are the summary of Healthcare & skincare business.
21• This shows our consolidated and business-based performance plans for the 2nd Quarter.
There is no change from our initial plans.
• We project increased revenue and operating profits from the year earlier withrevenue at 116.4 billion yen,operating profits at 4.8 billion yen,ordinary profits at 4.7 billion yen,
and current net profits at 2.8 billion yen.
• Note that our forecast of current net profit decrease from the previous year is primarily due toa rebound from extraordinary profits of 8.4 billion yen booked in the 2nd Quarter last year
owing to profits generated from negative goodwill associated with making Shikoku CCBC awholly-owned subsidiary.
• By the business, we project both Coca-Cola business and Healthcare & skincare business toincrease revenue and operating profits from the previous year.

22• Page 23 shows variance factors of operating profits in the 2nd Quarter against theprevious year.
• We forecast Coca-Cola business to increase profits by 1.1 billion yen from last year.
• On commercial side, we expect contribution profits of additional 200 million yen fromlast year, incorporating impacts from profitability improvement initiatives in Vending in
addition to sales volume and revenue growth in Chain store.
• In SCM, we project the impact of 400 million yen as we continue to work in the 2nd
Quarter on productivity enhancement initiatives and others that have generated benefits
steadily in the 1st Quarter.
• While making solid investments for growth even in the 2nd Quarter, we will also ensure
to work on reducing wasteful costs by continually moving forward the review of allactivities as we did in the 1st Quarter.
• For Healthcare & skincare business, we aim to attain 4.8 billion yen consolidated
operating profits, up by 1.1 billion yen from the year earlier with the plan of increased
operating profits from the previous year, expecting sales growth of core products both in
Healthcare and Skincare.
• These are the performance outlook for the 2nd Quarter.

23

• Let me describe development of new products and cultivation of new businesses here which weraise as one of key strategies in our mid-term 3 year plan.
• CCW and Q’sai together invested 50 million yen to establish “CQ Ventures Co., Ltd.” as ofFebruary 29. Setting 1.3 billion yen as the total investments for the CQ Ventures, we run
investment operations.
• We fund domestic venture companies having various technologies for potential growth andknow-hows through CQ Ventures and seek for collaborations.
• We have already made 300 million yen investments to highly promising funds.
• We will further explore all potential growth for our group by moving forward new productdevelopments and new business cultivations with the combination of speed and creative ideas
from venture companies and capitals and sales capabilities from our group.

24• Here is the summary.
• We increased profits in the 1st Quarter by 3.4 billion yen from the year earlier,outperforming the consolidated operating profit plan by 2.5 billion yen with steadyprogress of performances. The momentum of good cycle generated last year has
continued.
• On the commercial side, we have seen benefits of our initiatives little by little from RGM
in Supermarket positioned as the most critical challenge as well as revenue profitability
enhancement in Vending.
• While making solid investments for future growth according to plans, we also did
fundamental review of all activities and worked on completely reducing wasteful costs.
As a result, we managed to save costs and helped operating profits to be in the positive.
• We will further drive the initiatives in the 2nd Quarter onwards and aim to deliver annual
profits to exceed the plan by outperforming operating profit target of 16 billion yen as
raised initially, with solid achievement of performance plans.

25• Finally I would like to report you on the impacts from the Kumamoto Earthquake.
• Still many people are forced to live in evacuation centers in the disaster-hit areas.
First I would like to express my deep condolences to those who are in the region and all theparties involved.
I believe it gives you tremendous concerns as well since the disaster hit our areas. I appreciatevery much for your thoughts and considerations.
• By placing top priority to support the disaster-hit areas, we donated our products as acompany closely tied to local communities. We will continue to help people affected by thedisaster in those areas.
• On the other hand in updating our damage status, some of our production lines that wereforced to halt temporarily at Kumamoto and Kiyama plants have already been resumed
production thanks to quick responses.
• We have also responded to the recovery of sales equipment including vending machines anddispensers where possible one by one although we have not yet grasped the whole picture of
the damages due to some off-limit areas.
• Please note that we do not revise performance plans at this point since the sales volume of
CCW areas in total have been delivered as planned and damages were limited, while theimpacts from the disaster on performances after the 2nd Quarter are still under estimation.
• With that, I would like to close my briefing.
Thank you very much for listening.
