nt to focusing on areas where we will be able to generate the highest growth and returns, we have reached agreements in recent months to divest Sweetbay, Harveys and Reids, as well as our activities in Montenegro.
Although we remain prudent on the overall competitive landscape, our operating performance in the first half provides us with confidence that we will be able to generate an underlying operating profit for 2013 of at least 755 million, an improvement compared to our previous guidance.
