Interest-bearing loans and borrowings decreased to EUR12.170 million (from EUR13,359 million as at 31 December 2012), due to
strong free operating cash flow, a net cash inflow from acguisitions and disposals and foreign currency impact.
Currency split of net debt
This currency breakdown includes the effect of derivatives, which are used to hedge intercompany lending denominated in currencies
other than Euro.
Of total net interest-bearing debt, approximately 58 per cent is denominated in Euro and 29 per cent is US dollar denominated. This
is including the effect of cross-currency interest rate swaps on non-Euro denominated debt such as the GBP bond and the US private
placements at both Heineken N.V. and Heineken UK. The fair value of these swaps does not form part of net debt.
