low cost producer while maintaining the appropriate balance between revenue and
margin," continued Mr. Fowden.


FOURTH QUARTER 2012 PERFORMANCE SUMMARY 


Total filled beverage case volume (excluding concentrate sales) was 199 million
cases compared to 228 million cases. The volume decline was due primarily to our
decision to exit certain low gross margin business in North America and the
United Kingdom / Europe ("U.K.") as well as a continued general decline in the
North American carbonated soft drink ("CSD") and juice categories. Including
concentrate sales, volume was 280 million cases compared to 303 million cases.
Concentrate volume grew 6% due primarily to the timing of shipments to customers
in Asia. 



Revenue was lower by 6% at $517 million. An overall increase in average price
per case globally and favorable product mix in the U.K. was offset by lower
overall volumes. 



Gross profit as a percentage of revenue increased 230 basis points to 11.7%
compared to 9.4%. The margin improvement was due primarily to an increase in
average price per case and our exit from certain low gross margin business
globally, as well as increased operational efficiencies in North America. 



Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses were flat at $44 million. 


Income before income taxes increased to $3 million compared to a loss before
income taxes of $10 million. 



Income taxes were a benefit of $1 million compared to a $1 million tax expense. 


EBITDA increased 53% to $42 million compared to $27 million. Adjusted EBITDA
increased 31% to $43 million compared to $32 million. 



Free cash flow was $101 million arising from $120 million of net cash provided
by operating activities less $19 million of capital expenditures, compared to
$87 million of free cash flow arising from $104 million of net cash provided by
operating activities less $17 million of capital expenditures. 



FOURTH QUARTER 2012 REPORTING SEGMENT HIGHLIGHTS 


North America filled beverage case volume was 146 million cases compared to 170
million cases. Revenue was lower by 9% at $384 million as an increase in average
price per case was more than offset by our exit from certain low gross margin
business alongside a continued general decline in the North American CSD and
juice categories. 



U.K. filled beverage case volume was 46 million cases compared to 49 million
cases due primarily to our exit from certain low gross margin business as well
as the decrease in early customer orders ahead of future price increases
compared to the prior period. Revenue increased 5% (3% excluding the impact of
foreign exchange) to $117 million as a result of an increase in average price
per case and favorable product mix, including growth in the energy and sports
drinks categories. 



Mexico filled beverage case volume was 7 million cases compared to 8 million
cases. Revenue was lower by 15% (17% excluding the impact of foreign exchange)
at $10 million due primarily to the loss of a regional brand license at the end
of its term. 



RCI concentrate volume was 58 million cases compared to 55 million cases.
Revenue increased 11% to $6 million due primarily to the timing of shipments to
customers in Asia. 



FISCAL YEAR 2012 PERFORMANCE SUMMARY 


Total filled beverage case volume (excluding concentrate sales) was 867 million
cases compared to 960 million cases. The volume decline was due primarily to our
decision to exit certain low gross margin business in North America and the U.K.
as well as a continued general decline in the North American CSD and juice
categories. Including concentrate sales, volume was 1,247 million cases compared
to 1,314 million cases. Concentrate volume grew 7% due primarily to increased
volume from a new customer in South America and the timing of shipments to
customers in Asia. 



Revenue was lower by 4% (3% excluding the impact of foreign exchange) at $2,251
million. An overall increase in average price per case globally and favorable
product mix in the U.K. was offset by overall lower volumes and a product mix
shift into juice drinks and sports drinks from 100% shelf-stable juice in North
America. 



Gross profit as a percentage of revenue increased 110 basis points to 12.9%
compared to 11.8%. The margin improvement was due primarily to an increase in
average price per case and our exit from certain low gross margin business
globally, as well as increased operational efficiencies in North America.



SG&A expenses were $178 million compared to $173 million. The modest
increase in SG&A expenses was driven primarily by higher employee-related
costs compared to a lowering of the annual incentive and long-term incentive
accruals in the prior year partially offset by lower information technology
expenses in 2012. 



Income before income taxes increased 41% to $57 million compared to $41 million. 


Income taxes increased to a $5 million tax expense compared to a $1 million tax
benefit. 



EBITDA increased 8% to $209 million compared to $193 million. Adjusted EBITDA
increased 7% to $213 million compared to $199 million. 



Free cash flow was $103 million arising from $173 million of net cash provided
by operating activities less $70 million of capital expenditures, compared to
$115 million of free cash flow arising from $164 million of net cash provided by
operating activities less $49 million of capital expenditures. 



FISCAL YEAR 2012 REPORTING SEGMENT HIGHLIGHTS 


North America filled beverage case volume was 652 million cases compared to 728
million cases. Revenue was lower by 6% (5% excluding the impact of foreign
exchange) at $1,707 million as an increase in average price per case was more
than offset by our exit from certain low gross margin business, a continued
general decline in the North American CSD and juice categories and a product mix
shift into juice drinks and sports drinks from 100% shelf-stable juice. 



U.K. filled beverage case volume was 190 million cases compared to 195 million
cases due primarily to our exit from certain low gross margin business as well
as poor weather in the summer months. Revenue increased 6% (7% excluding the
impact of foreign exchange) to $473 million as a result of an increase in
average price per case and favorable product mix, including growth in the energy
and sports drinks categories. 



Mexico filled beverage case volume was 26 million cases compared to 37 million
cases. Revenue was lower by 25% (18% excluding the impact of foreign exchange)
at $39 million due primarily to the loss of a regional brand license at the end
of its term, partially offset by increased contract manufacturing volume. 



RCI concentrate volume was 278 million cases compared to 259 million cases.
Revenue increased 22% to $31 million due primarily to increased volume from a
new customer in South America and the timing of shipments to customers in Asia.

Defined Terms 
Certain defined terms used in this press release include the following. "GAAP"
means U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. "Total filled beverage case
volume" means filled beverage 8-ounce equivalents. "EBITDA" means GAAP earnings
(loss) before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. "Adjusted EBITDA"
means GAAP earnings (loss) before interest, taxes, depreciation and
amortization, excluding purchase accounting adjustments, integration expenses,
restructuring expenses and asset impairments. "Free cash flow" means GAAP net
cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures. See the
accompanying reconciliation of Cott's EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to its GAAP net
income, and Cott's free cash flow to its GAAP net cash provided by operating
activities, as well as the "Non-GAAP Measures" paragraph below.


Non-GAAP Measures
To supplement its reporting of financial measures determined in accordance with
GAAP, Cott utilizes certain non-GAAP financial measures. Cott excludes from GAAP
revenue the impact of foreign exchange to separate the impact of currency
exchange rate changes from Cott's results of operations. Cott utilizes EBITDA
and Adjusted EBITDA to separate the impact of certain items from the underlying
business. Because Cott uses these adjusted financial results in the management
of its business, management believes this supplemental information is useful to
investors for their independent evaluation and understanding of Cott's
underlying business performance and the performance of its management.
Additionally, Cott supplements its reporting of net cash provided by operating
activities determined in accordance with GAAP by excluding capital expenditures
to present free cash flow, which management believes provides useful information
to investors about the amount of cash generated by the business that, after the
acquisition of property and equipment, can be used for strategic opportunities,
including investing in our business, making strategic acquisitions, pay
dividends, and strengthening the balance sheet. The non-GAAP financial measures
described above are in addition to, and not meant to be considered superior to,
or a substitute for, Cott's financial statements prepared in accordance with
GAAP. In addition, the non-GAAP financial measures included in this earnings
announcement reflect management's judgment of particular items, and may be
different from, and therefore may not be comparable to, similarly titled
measures reported by other companies.


Safe Harbor Statements
This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of
Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 conveying management's expectations as to the future based

exchange between the U.S. dollar and the British pound sterling, the Euro, the
Canadian dollar, the Mexican peso and other currencies; Cott's ability to

significant amount of Cott's outstanding debt and Cott's ability to meet its
obligations under its debt agreements; Cott's ability to maintain compliance
with the covenants and conditions under its debt agreements; fluctuations in
interest rates; credit rating changes; the impact of global financial events on
Cott's financial results; Cott's ability to fully realize the expected cost
savings and/or operating efficiencies from its restructuring activities; any
disruption to production at Cott's beverage concentrates or other manufacturing
facilities; Cott's ability to protect its intellectual property; compliance with
product health and safety standards; liability for injury or illness caused by
the consumption of contaminated products; liability and damage to Cott's
reputation as a result of litigation or legal proceedings; changes in the legal
and regulatory environment in which Cott operates; the impact of proposed taxes
on soda and other sugary drinks; enforcement of compliance with the Ontario
Environmental Protection Act; unseasonably cold or wet weather, which could
reduce the demand for Cott's beverages; the impact of national, regional and
global events, including those of a political, economic, business and
competitive nature; Cott's ability to recruit, retain, and integrate new
management and a new management structure; Cott's exposure to intangible asset
risk; Cott's ability to renew its collective bargaining agreements on
satisfactory terms; disruptions in Cott's information systems; compliance with
product health and safety standards; and the volatility of Cott's stock price.


The foregoing list of factors is not exhaustive. Readers are cautioned not to
place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of
the date hereof. Readers are urged to carefully review and consider the various
