The sale of 60% of Dairy Ireland and related assets was completed on 2 July 2017 and this business together with Glanbia Ingredients Ireland have formed a new Joint Venture named Glanbia Ireland. Glanbia Nutritionals and Joint Ventures were the main drivers of growth in the first half and we believe second half earnings progression will also be driven by Glanbia Performance Nutrition where good organic growth is expected for the remainder of the year. Overall, we reiterate guidance for the full year of pro-forma Adjusted Earnings Per Share growth of 7% to 10% on a constant currency basis.”
