The filing notes that non-executive director Melissa Bethell is also a director of The Magnum Ice Cream Company N.V., which has been admitted to trading on Euronext Amsterdam, the London Stock Exchange and the New York Stock Exchange, where she will chair the remuneration committee and serve on the audit committee.
Multiple directors and senior managers acquired Diageo Ordinary Shares and American Depositary Shares through salary deduction share incentive plans, matching share awards and dividend reinvestment plans, at prices including about £16–£17 per Ordinary Share and $88–$90 per ADS.

Diageo plc has agreed to sell its 100% shareholding in Diageo Kenya Limited, which holds a 65% stake in East African Breweries plc (EABL), along with its 53.68% directly owned shareholding in Kenyan spirits company UDVK, to Asahi Group Holdings.
Diageo expects estimated net proceeds after tax and transaction costs of $2.3bn, equal to 17x adjusted EBITDA and implying an enterprise value of $4.8bn for 100% of EABL. The transaction is expected to reduce Diageo’s leverage by about 0.25x and is described as consistent with its strategy of selective disposals of non-core assets to strengthen the balance sheet and support de‑levering.
Diageo will enter long-term licensing and transitional service agreements so EABL continues producing and distributing Guinness, local spirits and ready‑to‑drink brands, and importing Diageo’s international spirits. Subject to regulatory approvals, completion is expected in the second half of calendar 2026, with EABL anticipated to remain listed on the Kenya, Uganda and Tanzania stock exchanges.

Diageo plc filed a Q1 fiscal 26 trading update reporting flat organic net sales, as 2.9% organic volume growth was fully offset by a 2.8% negative price/mix. Reported net sales declined 2.2% to $4.9bn, largely due to disposals, with negligible foreign exchange impact.
Regional trends were mixed: Europe grew 3.5% organically, Latin America and Caribbean rose 10.9%, and Africa gained 8.9%, while North America fell 2.7% and Asia Pacific declined 7.5% amid weakness in Chinese white spirits, which the company estimates reduced group net sales by about 2.5% in the quarter.
Management updated its fiscal 26 outlook to reflect softer US demand and China headwinds: organic net sales are expected to be flat to slightly down, and organic operating profit to grow low to mid‑single digit with positive operating leverage supported by the Accelerate cost programme. Guidance includes a ~25% tax rate, ~4.0% effective interest rate, capex at the lower end of $1.2–1.3bn, and about $3bn in free cash flow (vs $2.7bn in fiscal 25). The company targets a 2.5–3.0x leverage ratio no later than fiscal 28 and reiterates cost savings of about $625m over three years.
