· Admissions of 2.6m, up 20.5% (H1 2025: 2.2m)
· Revenue of £70.0m, up 23.9% (H1 2025: £56.5m)
· Adjusted EBITDA post-IFRS16 of £10.8m, up 32.0% (H1 2025: £8.2m)

· Food and Beverage Spend per Head of £11.41, up 3.0% (H1 2025: £11.09)
· Market share increased to 6.4%, up 60bps (H1 2025: 5.8%), reflecting the strength of the Company's premium proposition and audience appeal
· Net debt of £17.1m (H1 2025: £24.2m), down 29.0%, driven by strong operational cashflows, timing of working capital payments and limited venue expansion capital expenditure in the period.
While trading performance has been positive for the first half, the Directors retain a degree of caution for the full year outlook due to the challenging economic environment and the significance of Q4 trading to the overall annual performance of the Company.
As previously stated, the Directors are also assessing various investment projects, including significant investment in IT infrastructure, which are expected to generate long term returns but will affect profitability in H2 2026. The Directors currently expect financial year performance to be marginally ahead of 2025.
The Group intends to publish its interim results for the 26 weeks ended 2 July 2026 on 24 September 2026.
Corporate Update
The Board continues to engage with stakeholders on the Delisting of the Company. A further announcement in relation to a Delisting is expected to be made before the end of August 2026.
