APPENDIX A

KEY GROUP RISK FACTORS

Overview

The key risk factors that may affect the Group are set out below.

Each risk is considered in the context of the Group's strategy, as set out in the Strategic Report. Following a description of each risk, its causes and potential impact on the Group are summarised. We also explain the activities we are undertaking to mitigate each risk.

The Group has identified, actively monitors and is taking action to mitigate many different risks. This section does not include them all, but focuses on those risks that the Directors believe to be the most important ones that are currently faced by the business. Not all of these risks are within the control of the Group and other factors besides those listed may affect the Group's performance. Some risks may be unknown at present. Others, currently regarded as immaterial, could become material risks in the future.

The risk factors listed in this section and the activities being undertaken to mitigate them should be considered in the context of the Group's internal control framework. This is described in the section on risk management and internal control in the corporate governance statement. This section should also be read in the context of the cautionary statement  below regarding forward-looking statements.

Assessment of Group risk

The Board's assessment of the key risks and uncertainties facing the Group has remained broadly unchanged over the past year, particularly with regard to illicit trade, excise, tax and financial risk and regulation.

The Board has, however, increased its focus on the risks associated with the development of the Group's revised operating model and single IT operating system. The challenges to deliver the Group's pricing strategy in an increasingly aggressive competitor environment, the increased impact of market contraction, consumer down-trading and the risks of strategic litigation, were also considered by the Board. These are now listed as principal risks facing the business.

The risk that the Group is unable to access cash resources in a number of markets is no longer considered a principal risk for the purpose of this year's report.

The Board also revised its view of the primary causes of the risk of failure to lead developing next-generation products (referred to as the non-tobacco nicotine market in previous reports).

Details of each of these risks are set out in the following tables.

Cautionary statement

The Strategic Report and certain other sections of the Annual Report contain forward-looking statements that are subject to risk factors associated with, among other things, the economic and business circumstances occurring from time to time in the countries and markets in which the Group operates. It is believed that the expectations reflected in these statements are reasonable but they may be affected by a wide range of variables which could cause actual results to differ materially from those currently anticipated.

A. Marketplace Risk Factors

Competition from illicit tobacco trade

Illicit trade - in the form of counterfeit products, smuggled genuine products and locally manufactured products on which applicable taxes are evaded - represents a significant and growing threat to the legitimate tobacco industry. Most illicit products are sold at the bottom end of the market and in contravention of applicable regulatory requirements.

Excise increases can encourage more consumers to switch to cheaper illegal tobacco products, providing greater rewards for smugglers. The risk is exacerbated where current economic conditions have resulted in high unemployment and/or reduced disposable incomes.

Global volume of illicit trade is estimated to be up to 12% of consumption. In the next decade, we believe that the problem is likely to increase, driven by the increased regulatory and compliance burden for legitimate manufacturers and further significant excise increases.

Time frame:Long term

Principal causes

·   Unexpected and significant excise increases and widening excise differentials between markets.

·   Unintended consequences of regulation, e.g. plain packaging, graphic warnings, display bans and ingredients restrictions.

·   Extra compliance costs imposed on the legitimate industry giving a competitive advantage to illicit manufacturers.

·   Economic downturn.

·   Lack of law enforcement and weak border controls.

Potential impact

·   Erosion of brand value, with lower volumes and reduced profits.

·   Reduced ability to take price increases.

·   Investment in trade marketing and distribution is undermined.

Strategic impact: Growth (organic revenue growth)

Mitigation activities

·   Dedicated Anti-Illicit Trade (AIT) teams operating at global and country levels and internal cross-functional coordination.

·   Active engagement with key external stakeholders.

·   Cross-industry and multi-sector cooperation on a range of AIT issues.

·   Global AIT strategy supported by a research programme to further the understanding of the size and scope of the problem.

·   AIT Intelligence Unit (including a dedicated analytical laboratory) works with enforcement agencies in pursuit of priority targets.

·   Strong internal business conduct and customer approval policies.

Risk owner: Group Corporate and Regulatory Affairs Director

Failure to lead developing next-generation products

The Group recognises the risk of not capitalising on the opportunities in developing and successfully commercialising consumer-appealing next-generation products, including those believed by scientific and regulatory authorities as posing substantially reduced risks to health.

Time frame:Long term

Principal causes

·   Regulations that stifle the category, including those pertaining to marketing freedom, product innovation, retail availability and excise.

·   Failure to develop successful, consumer-appealing products and roll them out faster than competitors.

Potential impact

·   Consumer base, market share, profitability and achievement of growth targets will be undermined if competitors are more successful in establishing new categories or if regulation impedes the growth of the category.

·   While considered unlikely, equalisation of the regulatory framework for next-generation products with traditional cigarettes would tend to eliminate all business opportunities for the new category. Furthermore, equalising e-cigarettes to medicines would increase complexity, increase research and development (R&D) costs, reduce the size of the opportunity and hinder the ability to introduce innovations quickly.

Strategic impact: Growth (revenue growth) and Sustainability (reduced-risk products)

Mitigation activities

·   Exclusive focus by a wholly-owned Group subsidiary, Nicovations Limited, on the development and commercialisation of innovative regulatory approved nicotine products to enable the Group to offer a consumer-acceptable alternative to cigarettes with lower health risks.

·   Establishment of a next-generation products group with the appointment of its own leadership team.

·   Appointment of senior R&D and product development executives and the adoption of a portfolio approach to new technologies.

·   Improved Vype product portfolio launched in the UK, with further market launches planned.

·   Regulatory plans in place for key markets.

·   Ongoing mergers and acquisitions dialogue on potential next-generation products opportunities.

Risk owner: Managing Director, Next-Generation Products

Market size reduction and consumer down-trading

As a consequence of steep excise-led price increases and the continuing difficult economic and regulatory environment in many countries, market contraction and consumer down-trading are expected to remain principal risks facing the Group. A number of instances of market contraction have arisen, particularly in Europe, Australia, Brazil and Russia.

Time frame:Short term

Principal causes

·   Downturn in the economic climate impacting consumers' disposable incomes.

·   Changes in the regulatory environment.

·   Continued above-inflation price rises.

·   Targeted growth of low-priced brands through aggressive pricing.

Potential impact

·   Volume decline and portfolio mix erosion.

·   Funds to invest in growth opportunities are reduced.

Strategic impact: Growth (organic revenue growth)

Mitigation activities

·   Geographic spread mitigates impact at Group level.

·   Quarterly brand reviews are presented to the Global Marketing Leadership Team as well as to the Management Board.

·   Economic outlook embedded into quarterly performance reviews in markets.

·   Key market reviews at Management Board meetings.

·   Close monitoring of sales volume by segment to detect changes in consumer purchasing patterns in markets.

·   Clear portfolio and pricing strategies, ensuring balanced portfolio of strong brands across key segments.

·   Increased focus behind product quality and innovation across all segments to provide tangible differentiation and improve the price-value ratio.

·   Overlap with many mitigation activities undertaken for other principal risks facing the Group, such as competition from illicit tobacco trade, significant excise increases or structure changes and inability to obtain price increases.

Risk owner: Regional Directors

Inability to obtain price increases and impact of increases on consumer affordability

Annual manufacturers' price increases are among the key drivers in increasing market profitability. The Group faces a risk that such price increases will not materialise.

Time frame:Short term

Principal causes

·   Increased regulation reduces the ability to build brand equity and enhance the value proposition to the consumer.

·   Stretched consumer affordability arising from deteriorating economic conditions and rising prices.

·   Sharp increase or change in excise structure reduces opportunities for manufacturer-led pricing.

·   Competitor pricing activities.

Potential impact

·   Not achieving strategic growth metrics.

·   Funds to invest in growth opportunities are reduced.

·   Volumes may reduce faster than anticipated due to accelerated market decline.

·   Down-trading and growth of illicit trade.

Strategic impact: Growth (organic revenue growth)

Mitigation activities

·   Key market and pricing reviews at Management Board meetings.

·   Pricing, excise and trade margin committees exist in all markets with regional and global support.

·   Robust business cases underpinning key innovative launches.

·   Clear portfolio and pricing strategies, ensuring a balanced portfolio of strong brands across key segments.

Risk owner: Regional Director

B. Excise and Tax Risk factors

Significant excise increases or structure changes

Tobacco products are subject to substantial excise and sales taxes in most countries in which the Group operates. In many of these countries, taxes are generally increasing, but the rate of increase varies country by country and between different types of tobacco products.

A number of significant excise increases have taken place over the past three years, for example in Australia, Russia, Brazil, South Korea, Indonesia, Turkey, the Philippines and New Zealand. To date, the Group has been able to balance these increases with its geographic spread, and continues to develop effective measures to address the risk.

Time frame: Short term and long term

Principal causes

·   Fiscal pressures for higher government revenues.

·   Increases advocated within context of national health policies.

·   Insufficient opportunity to engage with stakeholders in meaningful dialogue.

Potential impact

·   Consumers reject the Group's legitimate tax-paid products for products from illicit sources.

·   Reduced legal industry volumes.

·   Reduced sales volume and/or portfolio erosion.

·   Some absorption of excise increases.

Strategic impact: Growth (organic revenue growth)

Mitigation activities

·   Requirement for Group companies to have in place formal pricing and excise strategies including contingency plans, with annual risk assessments.

·   Pricing, excise and trade margin committees in markets, with regional and global support.

·   Engagement with local tax and customs authorities, where appropriate, in particular in relation to the increased risk to excise revenues from higher illicit trade.

·   Portfolio reviews to ensure appropriate balance and coverage across price segments.

·   Monitoring of economic indicators, government revenues and the political situation.

·   Central team in place to define the excise management framework, develop training materials, monitor and engage with international financial institutions on excise and anti-illicit trade matters.

Risk owner: Regional Directors

Disputed taxes, interest and penalties 

The Group may face significant financial penalties, including the payment of interest, in the event of an unfavourable ruling by a tax authority in a disputed area.
Time frame: Short term

Principal causes

·   Unfavourable ruling by tax authorities in disputed areas and aggressive auditing and/or pursuit of tax claims.

Potential impact

·   Significant fines and potential legal penalties.

·   Disruption and loss of focus on the business due to diversion of management time.

·   Impact on profit and dividend.

Strategic impact: Productivity (capital effectiveness)

Mitigation activities

·   End market tax committees.

·   Internal tax function provides dedicated advice and guidance, and external advice sought where needed.

·   Engagement with tax authorities at Group, regional and individual market level.

Risk owner: Finance Director

C. Finance Risk Factors

Foreign exchange rate exposures

The Group faces transactional and translational foreign exchange (FX) rate exposures for earnings/cash flows from its global business. During periods of sterling strength and FX rate volatility, as seen in 2014, the Group's results can be impacted negatively.

Time frame:Short term

Principal causes

·   FX rate exposures arise from exchange rate movement against the functional currency and against sterling, the Group's reporting currency.

Potential impact

·   Fluctuations in FX rates of key currencies against sterling introduce volatility in reported EPS, cash flow and the balance sheet driven by translation into sterling of our financial results.

·   The dividend may be impacted if the payout ratio is not adjusted.

·   Differences in translation between earnings and net debt may affect key ratios used by credit rating agencies.

·   Volatility and/or increased costs in our business, due to transactional FX, may adversely impact financial performance.

Strategic impact: Productivity (capital effectiveness)

Mitigation activities

·   While translational FX exposure is not hedged, its impact is identified in results presentations and financial disclosures; earnings are re-stated at constant rates for comparability.

·   Debt and interest are matched to assets and cash flows to mitigate volatility where possible and economic to do so.

·   Hedging strategy for transactional FX and framework is defined in the treasury policy and signed off by the Board.

·   Illiquid currencies of many markets where hedging is either not possible or uneconomic are reviewed on a regular basis.

·   The treasury system provides visibility of FX exposures and the hedge portfolio.

Risk owner: Finance Director

D. Operations Risk Factors

Geopolitical tensions

Geopolitical tensions, social unrest, terrorism and organised crime have the potential to disrupt the Group's business in multiple markets.

Time frame:Long term

Principal causes

·   Regional and/or global conflicts.

·   Terrorism and political violence.

·   Criminal activity leading to attacks on our people, supply chain or other assets.

·   Economic policy changes, including nationalisation of assets and withdrawal from international trade agreements.

Potential impact

·   Potential loss of life, loss of assets and disruption to normal business processes.

·   Increased costs due to more complex supply chain arrangements and/or the cost of building new facilities or maintaining inefficient facilities.

·   Reputational impact of inability to protect staff and assets from serious harm.

Strategic impact: Growth (organic revenue growth)

Mitigation activities

·   Globally integrated sourcing strategy and contingency sourcing arrangements.

·   Security risk modelling, including external risk assessments and the monitoring of geopolitical and economic policy developments worldwide.

·   Insurance cover and business continuity planning, including scenario planning and testing and risk awareness training.

·   Security controls for field force, direct store sales, supply chain, with an emphasis on the protection of Group employees.

Risk owner: Director, Legal

Injury, illness or death in the workplace

The Group is committed to operating responsibly by maintaining the necessary controls that safeguard the health, safety and welfare of the people who work for the Group and alongside it, as well as minimising the impact on the natural environment and the local communities in which the Group conducts business activities. The risk of injury, death or ill-health to employees and those who work with the business is a fundamental concern of the Group, and can have a significant effect on its operations.
Time frame: Short term

Principal causes

·   Failure to assess risk and implement appropriate control measures.

·   Failure to monitor, assess and implement the requirements of regulations that apply to Group sites and operations resulting in non-compliance with environment, health and safety (EHS) standards.

·   Insufficient information, instruction and training on health and safety at work.

Potential impact

·   Serious injuries, ill-health, disability or loss of life suffered by employees and the people who work with the Group.

·   Exposure to civil and criminal liability and the risk of prosecution from enforcement bodies and the cost of associated fines and/or penalties.

·   Interruption of Group operations if issues are not addressed quickly.

·   High staff turnover or difficulty recruiting employees if perceived to have a poor EHS record.

Strategic impact: Sustainability

Mitigation activities

·   Risk control systems in place to ensure equipment and infrastructure are provided and maintained.

·   An EHS strategy ensures that employees at all levels receive appropriate EHS training and information.

·   Behavioural-based safety programme to drive Operations safety performance and culture closer to zero accidents.

·   Analysis of incidents undertaken regionally and globally to identify increasing incident trends or high potential risks that require coordinated action to address.

·   Focused programmes within Marketing to address specific risks associated with sales and distribution activities.

·   Dedicated global team to support management of EHS risks.

·   Key issues and incidents monitored regionally and reported globally to oversee compliance.

Risk owner: Director, Operations

E. Regulation Risk Factors

Tobacco regulation inhibits growth strategy

The enactment of unreasonable regulation that prohibits the Group's ability to communicate with consumers, differentiate our products and launch future products. This increases business costs and complexity.
Time frame:Long term

Principal causes

·   Pressure from some international health organisations, governments and the tobacco control community to pursue regulation and policy that: is not evidence-based; is designed to eradicate tobacco and nicotine use; excludes the industry from the manufacture and sale of next-generation products or regulates them in a way that fails to incentivise their commercialisation; and fails to deliver legitimate public health objectives.

Potential impact

·   Erosion of brand value through commoditisation, the inability to launch innovations, differentiate products, maintain or build brand equity and leverage price.

·   Adverse impact on ability to compete within the legitimate tobacco industry, and also with increased illicit trade.

·   Reduced consumer acceptability of new product specifications, leading to consumers seeking alternatives in illicit trade.

·   Shocks to share price on enactment of unduly onerous and restrictive regulation.

·   Reduced ability to compete in future product categories and make new market entries.

·   Construction of the retail universe and limitations on product visibility.

·   Increased scope and severity of compliance regimes in new regulation leading to higher costs, greater complexity, and potential reputational damage or fines for inadvertent breach.

Strategic impact: Growth (organic revenue growth) and Sustainability (balanced regulation)

Mitigation activities

·   Engagement and litigation strategy coordinated and aligned across the Group to drive a balanced global policy framework for tobacco control.

·   Prioritisation of key current and emerging regulatory issues.

·   Stakeholder mapping and prioritisation, developing robust compelling advocacy materials (with supporting evidence and data), and regulatory engagement programmes.

·   Regulatory risk assessment of marketing plans to ensure decisions are informed by an understanding of the potential regulatory environments.

·   Advocating the application of our integrated regulatory proposals to governments and public health practitioners based on the harm reduction principles.

·   Development of an integrated regulatory strategy that spans conventional combustibles and includes next-generation products.

Risk owner: Group Corporate and Regulatory Affairs Director; Director, Operations; and Director, Marketing

F. Programmes and Projects Risk Factors

Deployment of the Group's revised operating model and single IT operating system

Risks of delays to the on-time, in-full delivery of the Group's revised operating model and single IT operating system ('TaO'), due to the complexity involved in the deployment. This may result in increased costs and/or delaying the realisation of both qualitative and quantitative benefits.
Time frame:Short term

Principal causes

·   The scale of change required is large as the scope is more than SAP implementation and includes deploying the Group's revised Target Operating Model.

·   Resource constraints within the programme and regions.

·   Assumptions are not fully correct or the ways identified for achieving streamlined and uniform deployment are not sufficient.

·   Planned infrastructure architecture and/or SAP application may not meet the performance needs of high-order-volume markets.

·   Markets that have implemented TaO affected by system downtime due to potential lack of network resilience.

Potential impact

·   Implementation of new ways of working may not be fully embedded until well after implementation - delaying the delivery of the benefits.

·   Resource not being available for TaO or business as usual adversely impacting TaO benefits and/or business results.

·   Deployment is delayed with a corresponding impact on TaO programme costs and benefits realisation.

·   Benefits may not be realised due to failure to sustain the change post-TaO.

·   Potential business disruption in the regions for a longer period of time, impacting operations and ability to deliver other programmes and activities.

·   Poor response times in high volume markets could mean that batch transaction processes do not complete on time. This may impact key business processes, including sales.

·   System downtime could render markets that have implemented TaO unable to manufacture, move or sell.

Strategic impact: Productivity (globally integrated enterprise)

Mitigation activities

·   Importance of TaO understood and supported by senior management.

·   On-going stakeholder engagement and knowledge transfer at Regional senior management level.

·   Regular monitoring of the integrated plan and key dependencies.

·   Major risks and issues actively managed by TaO Leadership Team or within the relevant management layer as appropriate.

Risk owner: Director, Business Development

G. Litigation Risk Factors

Litigation

Product liability, regulatory or other significant cases may be lost or compromised resulting in a material loss or other consequence. Legal costs may increase significantly.
Time frame:Long term

Principal causes

·   Case lost by either a non-Group or Group company may set a precedent for the filing of future claims against the Group.

·   Cases are brought on the basis of the reversal of the burden of proof which places the Group, as a defendant, at a disadvantage e.g. Health Care Recoupment cases.

·   Aggressive court time line or approach that undermines defence preparation.

Potential impact

·   Damages and fines, negative impact on reputation, disruption and loss of focus on the business.

·   Consolidated results of operations, cash flows and financial position could be materially affected, in a particular fiscal quarter or fiscal year, by an unfavourable outcome or settlement of certain pending or future litigation.

Strategic impact: Growth (revenue impact)

Mitigation activities

·   Consistent litigation strategy across the Group.

·   Expertise and legal talent maintained both within the Group and with our external partners.

·   Closer integration in Group litigation strategy and cost controls pursued.

Risk owner: Director, Legal

APPENDIX B

RELATED PARTY DISCLOSURES

The Group has a number of transactions and relationships with related parties, as defined in IAS 24 Related Party Disclosures, all of which are undertaken in the normal course of business. Transactions with CTBAT International Limited are not included in these disclosures as it is a joint operation.

Transactions and balances with associates relate mainly to the sale and purchase of cigarettes and tobacco leaf. Amounts receivable from associates in respect of dividends included in the table below were £96 million (2013: £86 million). The Group's share of dividends from associates, included in other net income in the table below, was £518 million (2013: £512 million).

	2014 £m	2013 £m
Transactions
-revenue	38	54
-purchases	(279)	(345)
-other net income	512	501
Amounts receivable at 31 December	98	96
Amounts payable at 31 December	(25)	(33)

On 17 December 2012, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Group, BATUS Japan Inc. (BATUSJ), entered into an Amendment and Extension Agreement (referred to as the Amendment) with a wholly-owned subsidiary of Reynolds American Inc (RAI), R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Company (referred to as RJRTC). The Amendment modifies the American blend Cigarette Manufacturing Agreement (referred to as the 2010 Agreement), effective as of 1 January 2010.

Prior to the Amendment, the term of the 2010 Agreement was scheduled to expire on 31 December 2014, subject to early termination and extension provisions. Pursuant to the Amendment, the Manufacturing Agreement will remain in effect beyond 31 December 2014, provided that either RJRTC or BATUSJ may terminate the Manufacturing Agreement by furnishing three years' notice to the other party, with any such notice to be given no earlier than 1 January 2016.

During the year, the Group received proceeds of £94 million (2013: £189 million) in respect of its participation in the share buy-back programme conducted by RAI. This programme ceased in the second quarter of 2014.

On 15 July 2014, the Group announced that it has agreed to invest US$4.7 billion as part of RAI's proposed acquisition of Lorillard enabling the Group to maintain its 42% equity position in the enlarged business. The investment is contingent upon the completion of RAI's acquisition of Lorillard, which has been approved by the shareholders of RAI and Lorillard, and the proposed acquisition, while subject to a number of regulatory approvals in the US, is anticipated to be completed in the first half of 2015.

In addition, the Group and RAI have agreed in principle to collaborate on next-generation products and negotiations are ongoing.

During 2014, the Group acquired a further 1% interest in BAT Chile Operaciones, S.A. at a cost of £3 million. This increased the Group's shareholding to 99%. This transaction is shown as a £3 million reduction to reserves attributable to the owners of the parent in note 20 to the Financial Statements.

On 15 December 2014, the Group acquired a further 1% interest in BAT Central America S.A. at a cost of £1 million. This increased the Group's shareholding to 79%. This transaction is shown as a £1 million reduction to reserves attributable to the owners of the parent in note 20 to the Financial Statements.

Contributions to the British American Tobacco UK Pension Fund are secured by a charge over the Group's Head Office (Globe House) up to a maximum of £150 million.

The key management personnel of British American Tobacco consist of the members of the Board of Directors of British American Tobacco p.l.c. and the members of the Management Board. No such person had any material interest during the year in a contract of significance (other than a service contract) with the Company or any subsidiary company. The term key management personnel in this context includes the respective members of their households.

	2014 £m	2013 £m
The total compensation for key management personnel, including Directors, was:
-salaries and other short-term employee benefits	20	20
-post-employment benefits	3	3
-share-based payments	13	11
	36	34

There were no other long-term benefits applicable in respect of key personnel other than those disclosed in the Remuneration Report in the Annual Report.
