#1ACCELERATING GROWTH CAPITAL MARKETS DAY 17 December 2020 *****#2CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS This presentation contains statements that are, or may be deemed to be, "forward-looking statements". Forward-looking statements give the Group's current expectations or forecasts of future events. An investor can identify these statements by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. They use words such as 'anticipate', 'estimate', 'expect', 'intend', 'will', 'project', 'plan', 'believe', 'target' and other words and terms of similar meaning in connection with any discussion of future operating or financial performance. Other than in accordance with its legal or regulatory obligations (including under the Market Abuse Regulations, UK Listing Rules and the Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules of the Financial Conduct Authority), the Group undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Investors should, however, consult any additional disclosures that the Group may make in any documents which it publishes and/or files with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). All investors, wherever located, should take note of these disclosures. Accordingly, no assurance can be given that any particular expectation will be met and investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are subject to assumptions, inherent risks and uncertainties, many of which relate to factors that are beyond the Group's control or precise estimate. The Group cautions investors that a number of important factors, including those in this presentation, could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in any forward-looking statement. Such factors include, but are not limited to, those discussed under Item 3.D 'Risk factors' in the Group's Annual Report on Form 20-F for FY 2019 and any impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. Any forward-looking statements made by or on behalf of the Group speak only as of the date they are made and are based upon the knowledge and information available to the Directors on the date of this presentation. Nothing in this presentation should be construed as either an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy or sell WPP securities in any jurisdiction, or be treated or relied upon as a recommendation or advice by WPP. The views expressed in this presentation contain information that has been derived from publicly available sources that have not been independently verified. No representation or warranty is made as to the accuracy, completeness or reliability of the information. This presentation should not be relied upon as a recommendation or forecast by WPP. 2#3WPP IS A CREATIVE TRANSFORMATION COMPANY#4WE SERVE MANY OF THE WORLD'S MOST SUCCESSFUL COMPANIES CPG/PREMIUM Unilever Nestle MARS BAT A BETTER TOMORROW adidas COLGATE-PALMOLIVE P&G L'ORÉAL TECHNOLOGY/MEDIA Microsoft Google WPP'S TOP 20 CLIENTS COMCAST DELL HUAWEI PHARMA AND HEALTHCARE gsk Pfizer Johnson & Johnson AUTOMOTIVE mazda Ford WPP 4#5WE HAVE MANY OF OUR INDUSTRY'S MOST POWERFUL AND RESPECTED BRANDS GLOBAL INTEGRATED AGENCIES CREATIVE AGENCIES AKQA GREY VMLY&R mlm .…..…...
