Diageo plc publishes recast US dollar financial information
As announced on 1 August 2023 with its Preliminary Results for the financial year ended 30 June 2023, in line with reporting requirements the functional currency of Diageo plc has changed from sterling to US dollars starting 1 July 2023 - with this change being applied prospectively. This is because the group's share of net sales and expenses in the US and other countries whose currencies correlate closely with the US dollar has been increasing over the years, and that trend is expected to continue in line with the group's strategic focus.
Diageo has also decided to change its presentation currency from sterling to US dollars with effect from 1 July 2023, applied retrospectively, as it believes that this change will provide better alignment of the reporting of performance with its business exposures.
Unaudited recast primary financial statements and selected unaudited recast historical consolidated financial information of the Diageo group as of and for the years ended 30 June 2021, 30 June 2022 and 30 June 2023, which reflect the change in the presentation currency of Diageo from sterling to US dollars mentioned above, are set out in the document accessible via the below URL to help the understanding of Diageo's past performance and financial position on a re-presented basis, in US dollars.
