Doros Constantinou, Managing Director of Coca-Cola HBC, commented:

“Our performance during the second quarter was characterized by robust organic volume growth and the successful execution of our innovation plans. Core CSDs posted high single digit growth, and non-CSDs continued to grow by double digits across all categories. Despite higher raw material costs and limited pricing initiatives in some markets, supply chain efficiencies enabled us to sustain our margins at the same level as the first half of last year. The integration of our newly acquired businesses, including Multon in Russia, is progressing well and with the growth momentum of the first half continuing into July, we look to the rest of the year with continued confidence and accordingly update our 2005 guidance for our total business.”

1.                          BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Coca-Cola Hellenic Bottling Company S.A. (“the Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.  They do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. These unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual financial statements and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair statement of the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. Where necessary, comparative figures have been reclassified to conform with changes in presentation in the current year.

For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2004.

2.                          ADOPTION OF NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

In May 2005, the FASB issued Statement No. 154, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections (“Statement No. 154”), a replacement of APB Opinion No. 20, Accounting Changes, and FASB Statement No. 3, Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim Financial Statements. The Statement applies to all voluntary changes in accounting principle, and changes the requirements for accounting for and reporting of a change in accounting principle. Statement No. 154 requires retrospective application to prior periods’ financial statements of a voluntary change in accounting principle unless it is impracticable. It is effective for accounting changes and corrections of errors made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005. Earlier application is permitted for accounting changes and corrections of errors made occurring in fiscal years beginning after June 1, 2005. The Company does not expect the effect of Statement No. 154 will have material impact on its financial statements.

In December 2004, the FASB issued Statement No. 123 (Revised 2004), Share-Based Payment (“Statement No. 123 (R)”). The Statement requires compensation costs related to share based payments to be recognized in the financial statements. Under the Statement, the compensation cost is determined based on the grant date fair value of the equity or liability instrument issued. The Statement is applicable to share based payment transactions excluding employee share purchase plans that meet certain criteria. Statement No. 123 (R) replaces APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees. The Statement applies to all awards granted after the required effective date and to awards modified, repurchased or cancelled after that date. The effective date for the Company is January 1, 2006. The Company uses the fair value method for disclosure and is therefore required to apply the modified prospective application method. Under this transition method, compensation cost is recognized on or after the effective date for the portion of outstanding awards for which the requisite service has not yet been rendered. For periods before the effective date, the Company may elect to apply the modified version of the retrospective application under which financial statements for the prior periods are adjusted on a basis consistent with the pro forma disclosure required for those periods shown in Note 8. The Company does not expect the effect of Statement No. 123(R) will have material impact on its financial statements.

In March 2005, the SEC staff issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107, Share-Based Payment (“SAB No. 107”) to assist preparers by simplifying some of the implementation challenges of Statement No. 123(R) while enhancing the information that investors receive. SAB No. 107 creates a framework that is based on two overriding themes: (a) considerable judgment will be required by preparers to successfully implement Statement No. 123(R), specifically when valuing employee stock options; and b) reasonable individuals, acting in good faith, may conclude differently on the fair value of employee stock options. Key topics covered by SAB No. 107 include: (a) valuation models – SAB No. 107 reinforces the flexibility allowed by Statement No. 123(R) to choose an option-pricing model that meets the standard’s fair value measurement objective; (b) expected volatility – SAB No. 107

11

provides guidance on when it would be appropriate to rely exclusively on either historical or implied volatility in estimating expected volatility; and (c) expected term – the new guidance includes examples and some simplified approaches to determining the expected term under certain circumstances. The Company will apply the principles of SAB No. 107 in conjunction with its adoption of Statement No. 123(R).

In November 2004, the FASB issued Statement No. 151, Inventory Costs –an amendment to ARB No. 43, Chapter 4. The Statement requires that abnormal amounts of idle facility expenses, freight, handling costs and wasted material (spoilage) be included in the current period charges, eliminating the option for capitalization. This Statement is effective for inventory costs incurred after January 1, 2006 and is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations and financial position.

In December 2004, the FASB issued Statement No. 153, Exchanges of Non-monetary Assets-an amendment of APB Opinion No. 29, Accounting for Non-monetary Transactions (‘Statement No. 153’). Statement No. 153 eliminates the exception from fair value measurement for non-monetary exchanges of similar productive assets and replaces it with an exception for exchanges that do not have commercial substance. Statement No. 153 specifies that a non-monetary exchange has commercial substance if the future cash flows of the entity are expected to change significantly as a result of the exchange. Statement No. 153 is effective for exchanges of non-monetary assets that occur in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2005 and is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations and financial position.

Inventories consist of the following (in millions):

4.                          RECENT ACQUISITIONS

On April 20, 2005, the Company completed jointly with TCCC the acquisition of the Multon group, a leading juice producer in the Russian Federation. Multon has production facilities in Moscow and St. Petersburg and produces and distributes juice products under the brands “Rich”, “Nico” and “Dobry”. The total consideration for the acquisition was US$468.4 million (€357.9 million) (excluding acquisition costs), plus the assumption of debt of US$32.7 million (€25.0 million). The Company’s share of the purchase price and debt was US$250.5 million (€191.4 million). The acquisition is a joint venture and will be accounted for using the equity method.

On April 14, 2005, the Company completed the acquisition of a share of the Serbian mineral water company, Vlasinka. The total consideration for the acquisition was €21.6 million (excluding acquisition costs). The Company purchased the operating assets and liabilities at Surdulica in Southern Serbia for €10.8 million, whilst TCCC purchased the mineral water brand “Rosa” for €10.8 million.  At this stage, the acquisition has resulted in the Company recording €8.0 million of goodwill. However, the

12

fair values of the significant assets acquired and liabilities assumed are preliminary and pending finalization of valuations.

On June 2, 2005, the Company completed the acquisition of the Bulgarian mineral water company, Bankya.  The acquisition includes production facilities located just outside of Sofia and the mineral water brand “Bankia”. Total consideration for the acquisition was €10.7 million (excluding acquisition costs), with the assumption of debt of an additional €2.1 million. We have agreed to sell the Bankia trademark to TCCC in due course.  At this stage the acquisition has resulted in the Company recording €2.0 million of goodwill, €6.5 million of trademarks and €0.8 million of water rights. However, the fair values of the significant assets acquired and liabilities assumed are preliminary and pending finalization of valuations.

5.              FRANCHISE RIGHTS, GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Our intangible assets consist mainly of franchise rights related to our bottler’s agreements with TCCC, trademarks and goodwill.

TCCC does not grant perpetual franchise rights outside of the United States, nonetheless, we believe our franchise agreements will continue to be renewed at each expiration date and, therefore, essentially have an indefinite useful life. We determine the useful life of our trademarks after considering potential limitations that could impact the life of the trademark, such as technological limitations, market limitations and the intent of management with regard to the trademark. All the trademarks that we have recorded on our balance sheet have been assigned an indefinite useful life, as they have an established sales history in the applicable region. It is our intention to receive a benefit from them indefinitely, and there is no indication that this will not be the case.

In accordance with FASB Statement No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are not amortized, but are reviewed at least annually for impairment. Finite-lived assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives. The following table sets forth the carrying value of intangible assets subject to, and not subject to, amortization (in millions):

The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill are as follows (in millions):
