* Accelerating growth in Europe ex-France, sales up 8.4% on constant exchange
rates

- The acceleration is underpinned by a 2.9% like-for-like sales growth,
mainly driven by a solid performance in Spain in all activities, and by
Belgium, which shows the first signs of improvement across all formats


- Italy recorded a slight improvement in like for likes thanks to a robust
performance from supermarkets and convenience stores. Hypermarket trends
were in line with those of the Second Quarter.

- Other European countries have maintained the positive trends recorded
in the First Half

* Growth in Latin America and Asia, sales up 9.9% and 14.0% respectively on
constant exchange rates

- New engines for growth - for example Colombia, Indonesia and China -
continued to show strong growth

- These trends were mitigated by Brazil, where we see strong deflation, and
Taiwan, which has been impacted by a tightening of consumer credit and by
cannibalisation
