Rating constraints include Rexam's product concentration (about 70% of sales are beverage packaging), exposure to fluctuations in raw material prices, and high degree of customer concentration, with The Coca-Cola Co. (A+/Stable/A-1) and its affiliated bottlers accounting for a material part of group sales. In addition, the group's relatively high debt leverage puts pressure on its credit measures, which are currently weak for the ratings.

And very welcome indeed to Rexam's #### year end result presentation. I'm sorry for the  screen here, but I'm not going to show you any slides anyhow, so it doesn't matter. It's much worse for David Robbie who is coming after me. But first of all, when you look at ####, it's a year that at least I would like to have behind me as soon as possible in a way because I can see that the next years will be much more interesting. But the year in #### was extremely challenging, especially when it comes to the input cost. The aluminum costs were extremely high during the whole year. And maybe you ask yourself, I have heard this gentleman talk about hedging quite a lot over the years, and why didn't we fully hedge for ####? That's partly because we had all kind experts from this part of the world coming in to us early in the year, showing fancy diagrams about the aluminum cost development over the year, and that aluminum cost should probably...
