FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

COCA-COLA ENTERPRISES INC.
REPORTS FOURTH-QUARTER AND FULL-YEAR 2006 RESULTS

·  
Excluding certain items, comparable full-year 2006 EPS totaled $1.30, with full-year cash flow from operations less capital spending (free cash flow) of $758 million.

·  
CCE announces strategic restructuring program to support implementation of key long-term initiatives essential in delivering sustainable growth and improving shareowner returns.

·  
Full year loss of $2.41 per share includes non-cash impairment charge of $2.9 billion and other items impacting comparability.


ATLANTA, February 13, 2007 -- Coca-Cola Enterprises (NYSE: CCE) today reported a full-year 2006 net loss of $1.1 billion, or $2.41 per share. These results include a non-cash impairment charge of $2.9 billion, or $3.80 per share after tax, as well as previously announced restructuring charges, expense related to the impact of SFAS 123R (expensing of stock options), and net favorable tax items.
The non-cash impairment charge is the result of CCE’s annual impairment analysis in accordance with SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.” The charge is necessary to reduce the book value of the company’s North American franchise license intangibles to their estimated fair value.

(a) This non-GAAP financial information is provided to allow investors to more clearly evaluate operating performance and business trends.  Management uses this information to review results excluding items that are not necessarily indicative of ongoing results.

 
For the full year, consolidated revenues increased 6 percent, reflecting bottle and can volume improvement of 1 percent, net pricing per case growth of 2 percent and favorable currency translations. Comparable operating income, excluding the non-cash impairment charge, restructuring charges and other items, increased 5 percent. Pages 11 through 14 of this release provide a reconciliation of reported and comparable operating results.
These results reflect consistent operating improvement in Europe with comparable operating income growth of 3 percent. North America achieved full year comparable operating income growth of 4 percent despite weak carbonated soft drink (“CSD”) category trends and higher cost of goods. Overall cost of sales per case increased 3½ percent for the full year reflecting higher commodity costs and package mix shifts. Pricing and cost of sales per case results are currency neutral.
North America achieved consistent price improvement throughout the year with net pricing per case growth of 3 percent in the fourth quarter and 2½ percent for the full year. Volume results were affected by a price increase taken in the fourth

quarter, resulting in a fourth quarter volume decline of 2½ percent. Full-year North American volume grew ½ percent as a low single-digit decline in CSDs was offset by double-digit growth in water and sports drinks.
In Europe, brand initiatives such as Coca-Cola Zero and the successful execution of World Cup marketing helped generate balanced volume and pricing growth for the year. Full-year volume grew 3½ percent and net pricing per case grew 1½ percent. For the fourth quarter, volume grew 5½ percent, with net pricing per case growth of 1½ percent. This improved performance reflected strong CSD growth in continental European territories.
“While we are pleased to finish 2006 slightly ahead of our revised expectations, our financial performance was below the level we believe our organization can produce over the long-term,” said John F. Brock, president and chief executive officer. “In 2007, we will strive to deliver the best results possible as we work through unprecedented cost pressures in North America that will limit our earnings performance.
“Going forward, we are focused on implementing a strategic, long-term business plan that will position our organization to excel in a dynamic and changing market environment,” Mr. Brock said. “Our senior leadership team has identified three strategic priorities that are essential to this transformation, and will enable us to realize the full potential of our powerful sales and distribution assets. These initiatives include:
·  
“First, growing the value of our existing brands and expanding our product portfolio by strengthening our position in each beverage category and strategically broadening our presence in fast growing beverage groups;

·  
“Second, transforming our go-to-market model and maximizing efficiency and effectiveness in ways that drive improved customer service and execution, embrace the most effective distribution channels for each of our products, and drive improved consistency and best practices across our organization;
·  
“And, third, attracting, developing and retaining a highly talented and diverse workforce as we establish a winning and inclusive culture.
“We believe the implementation of these initiatives, combined with our restructuring plan, will enable us to build a high-performing company that will drive improving returns for our shareowners,” Mr. Brock said.
Restructuring
  In conjunction with our strategic plan, we will restructure segments of our corporate, North American and European operations.* Through this restructuring, we will enhance standardization and consistency in our operating structure and business practices. In North America, we will create a highly efficient supply chain and order fulfillment structure, and improve customer service by implementing new selling systems for many of our customers. This restructuring, coupled with certain transition costs, will result in a charge of approximately $300 million, with the majority of this expense recognized in 2007 and 2008. Management expects a net job reduction of approximately 5 percent of our total workforce, or approximately 3,500 positions.
Financial Outlook
Financial projections for 2007 are heavily influenced by an exceptionally high cost of goods increase in North America. North American cost of sales are expected to increase approximately 9 percent per case as compared to an average increase of 2½ percent over the past 5 years. This increase is the result of double-digit growth in

the price of aluminum cans and high fructose corn syrup. Given this extraordinary cost environment, we expect 2007 earnings per diluted share will be down 5 percent to 10 percent versus comparable 2006 results. CCE expects another year of strong cash flow from operations less capital spending, with a total of more than $600 million, including cash restructuring expense. Capital spending will total approximately $1 billion in 2007. We expect our effective tax rate to be approximately 30 percent. Our 2007 guidance is currency neutral and excludes any potential impact from the adoption of FIN 48, “Accounting for Uncertain Tax Provisions.”
Going forward, management will focus on four key metrics in measuring the operating performance of the company and providing future financial guidance. Management considers growth in revenue, operating income, earnings per share and return on invested capital as critical elements in driving improved returns for shareowners. Management will continue to report volume, pricing growth and cost of sales performance on a quarterly basis and discuss the outlook for these items within the context of our four key metrics.
Long-Term Goals
As the company realizes the full benefits of its strategic plan, management expects to achieve long-term annual revenue growth in a range of 4 percent to 5 percent, operating income growth of 5 percent to 6 percent and high single-digit earnings per share growth. In addition, return on invested capital is expected to improve by 30 basis points or more annually.

(a) These non-GAAP measures are provided to allow investors to more clearly evaluate our operating performance and business trends. Management
uses this information to review results excluding items that are not necessarily indicative of our ongoing results.
 
         
(b) On January 1, 2006, we adopted SFAS 123R and applied the modified prospective transition method. Under this method, we did not restate any prior
periods. During the fourth quarter of 2006, we recorded additional compensation expense of  $9 million (pretax) as a result of adopting SFAS 123R.
If we had accounted for our share-based payment awards under SFAS 123R during the fourth quarter of 2005, our compensation expense would
have been higher by approximately $11 million (pretax).

(a)  The non-GAAP financial measure "Bottle and Can Net Pricing per Case" is used to more clearly evaluate bottle and can
 pricing trends in the marketplace.  The measure excludes the impact of fountain gallon volume and other items that are not
directly associated with bottle and can pricing in the retail environment. Our bottle and can sales accounted for
approximately 90 percent of our net revenue during the full-year 2006.
                                             
(b) The non-GAAP financial measure "Bottle and Can Cost of Sales per Case" is used to more clearly evaluate cost trends for
bottle and can products. The measure excludes the impact of fountain ingredient costs as well as marketing credits and Jumpstart
funding, and allows investors to gain an understanding of the change in bottle and can ingredient and packaging costs.
                                             
(c) The non-GAAP financial measures "Currency-Neutral Bottle and Can Net Pricing per Case" and "Currency-Neutral Bottle
and Can Cost of Sales per Case" are used to separate the impact of currency exchange rate changes on our operations.
                                             
(d) "Comparable Volume" excludes the impact of acquisitions. The measure is used to analyze the performance of our
business on a constant territory basis.
                                             
(e) The non-GAAP measure "Free Cash Flow" is provided to focus management and investors on the cash available for
debt reduction, dividend distributions, share repurchase, and acquisition opportunities.
                                             
(f) The non-GAAP measure "Net Debt" is used to more clearly evaluate our capital structure and leverage.
