1 Adjusted EPS is calculated as adjusted operating profit before tax divided by the weighted average number of shares in issue by the Group for the period.
Consistent with past practice, the adjustment to the interest and number of shares reduced the reinsurance and bank financing costs by £16m, thereby increasing operating profit to £251m and the number of shares to 933m, resulting in an adjusted EPS of 26.9 pence.
