Reportable Segments [Abstract]  
Segmental analyses 2 Segmental analyses
The chief operating decision maker, the Management Board, reviews adjusted profit from operations at constant currencies to
evaluate segment performance and allocate resources to the overall business on a geographic region basis, including the results of
New Categories (comprising Vapour products, Heated Products and Modern Oral products), which are reported to the Management
Board as part of the results of each geographic region. The Management Board also reviews, at constant currencies, revenues on a
geographic region basis, which are included within adjusted profit from operations.
The Group is organised into three geographic regions as follows:
Americas and Europe (AME), comprising markets operating in Europe, Latin America and Canada;
Asia-Pacific, Middle East and Africa (APMEA) comprising markets operating in Asia-Pacific, Middle East, Central Asia, Caucasus and
Africa, as well as in Mongolia; and
the U.S.
The three geographic regions are the reportable segments for the Group as they form the focus of the Group’s internal reporting
systems and are the basis used by the Management Board for assessing performance and allocating resources. Transactions between
Group subsidiaries are conducted on arm’s length terms in accordance with appropriate transfer pricing rules and Organisation for
Economic Cooperation & Development (OECD) principles. Net finance costs (comprising interest income and interest expense), share
of post-tax results of associates and joint ventures and taxation are centrally managed, and accordingly, such items are not presented
by segment as they are excluded from the measure of segment profitability.
Regional Directors are responsible for delivering the operating and financial results of their Region inclusive of all product categories.
Therefore, the results of New Categories (comprising Vapour products, Heated Products and Modern Oral products) are reported to
the Management Board as part of the results of each geographic region.
However, additional information has been provided to disaggregate revenue based on product category to enable investors to better
compare the Group’s business performance across periods and by reference to the Group’s investment activity.
In respect of the U.S. region, all financial statements and financial information provided by or with respect to the U.S. business or
Reynolds American Inc. (RAI) (and/or RAI and its subsidiaries (collectively, the ‘Reynolds Group’)) are prepared on the basis of U.S. GAAP
and constitute the primary financial statements or financial information of the U.S. business or RAI (and/or the Reynolds Group). Solely for
the purpose of consolidation within the results of BAT p.l.c. and the BAT Group, this financial information is then converted to IFRS. To
the extent any such financial information provided in these financial statements relates to the U.S. business or RAI (and/or the Reynolds
Group), it is provided as an explanation of the U.S. business’s or RAI’s (and/or the Reynolds Group’s) primary U.S. GAAP based financial
statements and information.
