Interim Management Statement

Operating performance

After a difficult first half of the year during which like-for-like net income declined by 4.2%, we have seen an improving trend in performance in the second half with like-for-like net income for the total estate down by 2.7% in the 18 weeks to 3 August 2013. Encouragingly, the first five weeks of our final quarter have seen like-for-like net income growth.

In the first half of the year our income was adversely impacted by some exceptionally poor winter weather alongside the cessation of trading of Waverley, our wines and spirits distributor. In the third quarter we have faced tough comparatives against the prior year due to the timing of Easter and the positive impact from the Euro 2012 football championship and the Queen's Diamond Jubilee celebrations.

After taking account of these unusual events we estimate that our underlying like-for-like net income in the first half was down by around 2% and has improved in the second half to date to be down by approximately 1%.

Key to sustaining our improved performance in like-for-like net income is the successful execution of our many operational activities. The rate of business failures continues to fall and we are making good progress with the roll out of new services to our publicans such as the deployment of free Wifi, the provision of improved food pricing and support and the availability of discounted Sky entertainment packages. We are also maintaining our investment in the estate including the completion of 656 exterior redecorations, many of which have been completed during June and July.
