**  Return on invested capital (ROIC) is calculated by a rolling 12-month net Group operating profit after tax over total equity, plus net debt and IFRS 16 lease liability. The difference between excluding IFRS 16 is the exclusion of the right of use depreciation, the lease liability interest, IFRS 16 lease liability and inclusion of the IAS 17 lease expense. The 31 March 2020 ROIC was also adjusted by the IFRS 5 impairment included in Avis fleet.
