All line items in the 1H14 Results Presentation are reported on an Underlying basis . Refer to Supplementary Slide 4 for a reconciliation of Underlying to Statutory PBT. 2. Includes cash and cash equivalents and $630m undrawn revolver facility at 31 December 2013. 3. Variance to last year. Favourable variances are reported in green. 4. Comparable Unit Cost is calculated as Underlying PBT less passenger revenue and fuel per ASK adjusted for the impact of the Boeing settlement (1H13), B767 phased fleet retirement, share of the Groups associate losses, change in FX rates and movements in average sector length. Refer to Supplementary Slide 9 for further detail. 5. Net free cash flow is operating cash flows less investing cash flows.
