Imperial Brands Investor Day

Imperial Brands PLC today hosts an investor day at its head office in Bristol, UK, which will provide further details on the Group's strategy, operations and value creation opportunities.

The day will comprise presentations by the Chief Executive and other members of the senior management team, focused on three themes: quality, agility and discipline.

Quality - We continue to improve the quality of growth through our portfolio simplification programme and optimising our investment choices in brands and markets.

Agility - Reducing complexity and streamlining the way we manage our brands and markets, combined with the changes we are making to our operating model, is creating a stronger, more agile and efficient organisation.

Discipline - We maintain a disciplined approach to resource allocation and the efficient management of our cost and capital base. This underpins the effective deployment of cash to reinvest in the business, pay down debt and deliver returns to shareholders. We reaffirm our commitment to deliver dividend growth of at least 10% per annum over the medium-term.

There will be no update on current trading beyond the Half Year Results that were issued on 4 May 2016.

The presentation slides will be available on www.imperialbrandsplc.com. A webcast recording and transcripts of the presentations will be posted on the website as soon as they are available over the coming days.
