Crispin Lilly, Chief Executive Officer of Everyman Media Group
PLC said:
"The appetite for Everyman has never been stronger with our
continued roll-out allowing us to deliver exceptional experiences
to more audiences across the UK with our increasing footprint. As a
result, we have seen progress across both our financial and
operational KPIs, with growth in revenue and operating profit
driven by increasing admissions and F&B spend. This has
resulted in the record market share we are reporting today."
"Our ambitious roll out continues both in the UK and with our
first international site, which is due to open in Ireland next
year. We are confident that there is significant room for
expansion. We look forward to delivering our proven model to
additional communities in both countries in the current period and
beyond."

Chairman's Statement
Once again, I am pleased to be reporting on a strong period of
growth, where the Group has continued to live up to its ambitions
and customers have continued to embrace and enjoy our Everyman
offer all throughout the UK; from Glasgow in the North, Chelmsford
in the East, Horsham in the South and Bristol in the West. We have
further expanded our geographic footprint, now operating 28 venues
across the UK, and have continued to deliver high quality and
engaging experiences for our customers. This has resulted in an
increase in both the number of admissions and average spend on food
and beverage.
Everyman's place in today's world
We believe that the entire experience is what defines cinema,
and this is the heart of what we do at Everyman. It is not only the
film, but all of its complementary components. The venue, food,
drink and staff, all make up the experience.
There is significant appetite for all forms of entertainment,
with continued strong leisure spend in the UK*, and cinema
continues to be a much loved medium. In 2018, there were 177
million admissions, the highest since 1970, and in the same year
there were around 900 film and event cinema releases theatrically.
This is a huge opportunity for growth in the UK; not only have we
continued to take more market share over the reported period, from
2.5% in the first six months of 2018, to 3.0% in 2019, but we are
also set to benefit from being part of an expanding market.
Importantly, Everyman's venues, location, food, drink, staff and
film make us relevant, modern and much loved within our
communities, making us less dependent on any specific film or
upcoming slate.
These market dynamics and diverse content provide us with the
foundation to continue expanding our footprint and to be confident
that the appetite to consume the Everyman offer continues to go
from strength to strength.

Enhancing local communities
We are proud of the positive impact that our venues are having
on high streets and communities.
Our aim is to breathe new life into public spaces, either
through regeneration, or new developments. The Newcastle venue was
previously a nightclub, which had lain disused for four years. It
has now become a beautiful space with screens able to seat 200
people at capacity, and with a premium menu that can be enjoyed
either in the bar or through a waiter service to the cinema seats.
Meanwhile, in Horsham we were proud to be the key leisure anchor of
a broader redevelopment project in the town centre.
More recently we added a further screen at Gerrards Cross and
completed a significant refurbishment of our Walton-On-Thames
venue, illustrating our long term commitment to maintaining the
standard of our older venues and also providing us with an uplift
in local trade.
Building our team
In the period, we have bolstered our committed and enthusiastic
team to over 900 in total, including key hires in digital marketing
and finance as well as local venue managers to support our growth
ambitions.
Elizabeth Lake joined us as Chief Financial Officer post-period
end, on 16 September 2019. Elizabeth is an excellent addition to
the team and will support the Group as we continue to grow.
Continued momentum
Our business model and offering has been proven to work across
the UK and has once again proved its success over the last six
months. Trading since the period end has been robust, and we
continue to trade in line with expectations for the full year.
We have innovative and ambitious plans for the remainder of the
year and beyond and remain confident and excited of what lies
ahead.
Paul Wise
Chairman
23 September 2019
Chief Executive's Statement
The first half of 2019 was a demonstration of Everyman's ability
to not only deliver, but to deliver ahead of the market, with our
box office market share growing significantly to 3.0% from 2.5% for
the same period in 2018. This has been predominantly driven by an
increase in the number of venues, and the box office performance of
our existing estate continues to perform well alongside an improved
spend per head on food and beverages.
Growth has been delivered across revenue and operating profit,
with all of our KPIs showing an improvement. A reflection of our
quality F&B offering, spend per head grew to GBP6.95, up 13.2%.
This was driven partly by our estate expansion with new venues
having larger and better equipped bars, but also the continued menu
development and an ongoing investment in the use of technology to
improve service across all venues.
Alongside our commercial progress, the business continued on its
ambitious path to further expand its footprint, with the opening of
our Horsham and Newcastle venues, with seven screens between them.
Furthermore, we delivered a successful 'Summer Love' outdoor pop-up
experience at Kings Cross and announced several new partnerships
with renowned F&B brands, alongside launching the Everyman app,
to further enhance the customer experience.
Business model and growth strategy
Delivering exceptional leisure experiences to all
Everyman's business model is simple; our aim is to further build
our portfolio of venues whilst successfully growing our existing
estate by bringing together great food, drink, atmosphere, service
and of course film, to create exceptional experiences for our
customers.
Our growth strategy is multi-faceted:
i. Expanding the geographical footprint by establishing new
venues in order to reach new customers
ii. Continually evolving the quality of experience and breadth of choice we offer at our venues
iii. Engaging in effective brand and marketing activity, to
expand awareness of Everyman and increase the frequency of visits
from our existing loyal customers.
Our model is one that delivers financial benefits, with the
premium experience warranting a premium price point, and with more
revenue-generating activities offered than the traditional cinema.
As we grow, we also benefit from increasingly efficient central
costs, allowing top line revenue growth to drop to bottom line.
Progress against strategy
KPIs
The Group uses the following key performance indicators, in
addition to total revenue, to monitor the progress of the Group's
activities:
26 weeks ended 27 weeks ended Year ended
4 July 2019* 5 July 2018 3 January

Admissions +9.4% 1,475,425 1,348,097 2,795,359

spend per head
* 2018 was a 53 week year with extra week in the 27 weeks ended
5 July 2018
Progress in the Group's KPIs is driven by a number of factors:
acquiring more customers, encouraging more frequent visits to
venues, upgrading customers onto membership schemes and the
provision of a broader range of opportunities to spend during the
visits.
Enhancing the Everyman experience
Maintaining a focus on enhancing the quality of its venues,
F&B offering, staff service and content programming is vital
for Everyman and its continued growth.
Our Everyman venues are each uniquely designed to deliver
stylish, welcoming and comfortable spaces using high quality
materials whether within a brand new building or an older,
traditional space.
In addition to the GBP0.25m refurbishment of our Walton On
Thames venue, we invested GBP1.0m building a completely new third
screen at Gerrards Cross along with an expanded bar and new kitchen
now capable of serving our full Spielburger menu. These investments
are important to maintain the customer experience and continued
profitability of existing venues such as Walton, or as additional
stand-alone investment opportunities such as Gerrards Cross.
As our best asset and at the front line of delivering an
exceptional experience to our customers, we are committed to
ensuring that our teams are fully supported, developed and provided
with outstanding opportunities. As such, amongst a number of
initiatives, we introduced new means of internal communications
across the Group to drive collaboration and enhanced our training
programmes to support our staff's development. I would like to
thank all our teams for their unrelenting enthusiasm, passion, hard
work and exceptional delivery in the period.
We were very pleased to have launched our Everyman app in June
and have subsequently launched an updated version this month. The
app will enhance the Everyman customer journey with improved access
to upcoming venue schedules and booking, food and drink
functionality, and Apple music. The technology we use as part of
our infrastructure has also been upgraded to ensure we remain
cutting edge, including the implementation of the next iteration of
Vista (EPOS) software which delivers better remote functionality
for our bar teams and the adoption of Apple music playlists
throughout our venues.
The Everyman offering was once again expanded in the period,
with partnerships announced with key brands including Apple, Green
& Blacks, Wild Turkey, Grey Goose, Campari and American
Airline. Not only have these initiatives proven to be
revenue-generating, but they also broaden our audience reach and
enhance the experience they have in venue.
Expansion of our geographic footprint
We were delighted to have opened a three-screen venue in Horsham
and a four-screen venue in Newcastle during the period.
In addition, we were pleased to announce that we have plans in
place to open our first international venue in Dublin, Ireland.
International expansion represents an entirely incremental
opportunity for Everyman and one we will look to pursue cautiously.
There remains however continued scope for significant expansion in
the UK and we will continue our ambitious roll-out in our primary
market.
Whilst continuing to grow our pipeline at an exciting pace, we
remain as diligent as ever in ensuring that each opportunity is
correct for our business and is fully funded at the time of
agreement. As with all investment opportunities, we ensure it fits
our strict criteria and a minimum financial return on capital
invested on any new project.
Building the Everyman brand
Everyman's marketing activity is focused on creating memorable
moments and events, exceeding customer expectations, and fostering
and garnering strong authentic word of mouth advocacy. In the
period, we have hosted several events including our 'Summer Love'
pop up cinema at Kings Cross, our fifth annual Everyman Film
Festival and many Q&A sessions with high profile individuals in
the film community, such as Danny Boyle and Alex Garland.
Delivering on our ambitions
We have a further 15 committed venues, with a variety of lead
times through to 2022. In addition, we have a further eight sites
on which we have instructed lawyers and we continue to consider a
range of new opportunities, some that can be delivered quickly,
often within twelve months, once signed. Specifically, we look
forward to opening London Broadgate, Manchester St Johns,
Clitheroe, Wokingham and Cardiff before the end of the calendar
year.
Alongside geographic expansion, we will continue to enhance the
quality of experience for our customers and develop our F&B
offerings.
Trading in the first 26 weeks of 2019 was robust and has
continued in line with expectations post period. The Board is
confident of meeting expectations for the full year and driving
growth in the period ahead.
Crispin Lilly
Chief Executive Officer
23 September 2019
Chief Financial Officer's Statement
Revenue for the period was up 16.1% on last year to GBP28.9
million (5 July 2018: GBP24.9 million, full year to 3 January 2019:
GBP51.9 million). This result is particularly pleasing given the
extra week of trading in the 2018 comparable period.
The Group's adjusted operating profit before depreciation,
amortisation, pre-opening expenses, and share-based payments was
GBP6.6 million (5 July 2018: GBP4.1 million, full year to 3 January
2019: GBP9.2 million). The pre-IFRS16 equivalent as has
historically been reported would have been GBP4.9 million for the
period.
The Group generated a profit for the period of GBP0.6 million
(Pre-IFRS equivalent GBP1.1 million, 5 July 2018 GBP0.8 million,
full year to 3 January 2019 GBP2.0 million). The impact of the
implementation of IFRS 16 has resulted in a reduction in reported
profit due to the charge for depreciation on right-of-use assets
and the interest charge on lease liabilities being greater than the
charge for rent that would have been reported pre IFRS 16. The
interest charge on the lease liabilities is higher in the earlier
years of a lease, as a significant number of the Group's leases are
relatively new, this has resulted in a reduction in reported
profit. This net impact on reported profit is GBP0.5 million.
The effective tax rate is lower than the standard rate of
corporation tax for the six-month period ended 4 July 2019 due to
the effect of deferred tax arising from the valuation of share
options (both exercised and unexercised).
The share-based payment expense for the period was GBP0.4
million (5 July 2018: GBP0.2 million, full year to 3 January 2019:
GBP0.5 million) reflecting share option incentives provided to the
Group's management and employees.
The Board does not recommend the payment of a dividend at this
stage of the Group's development.
Cash flows
Net cash generated in operating activities was GBP2.9 million (5
July 2018 cash used: GBP2.3 million from operating activities, full
year to 3 January 2019: GBP7.6 million generated from operating
activities). Net cash outflows for the year, before financing, were
GBP6.0 million (July 2018: GBP9.3 million, full year to 3 January
2019: GBP15.5 million). This is largely represented by capital
expenditure GBP8.4 million on the expansion of the business through
build costs and refurbishment of venues.
The movement in trade and other payables in the period is
largely due to construction invoices relating to the new venues in
Horsham and Newcastle.
Cash held at the end of the period was GBP1.9 million (5 July
2018: GBP3.1 million, 3 January 2019: GBP3.5 million). The cash
held will be invested in the continuing development and expansion
of the Group's business.
The Group has access to a GBP30m facility of which GBP11m was
drawn by the end of the period.
Openings and capital expenditure
During the period, the Group opened a new three-screen venue in
Horsham at the end of March 2019, and a four-screen cinema in
Newcastle at the beginning of May 2019.
During the period the Group exchanged contracts on further
venues at Kings Road Chelsea, Dawson Street Dublin and Egham. This
is in addition to the pre-existing contracts for London Broadgate,
Cardiff, Manchester, Clitheroe, Northallerton, Plymouth, Lincoln,
London's Borough Market, Tunbridge Wells, Durham, Wokingham and
Edinburgh.
The Group continues to invest in its infrastructure and head
office to support the growth of new venues, investment in capital
spend was GBP8.8 million, of which GBP8.4 million was on venues,
the remainder being development of the Everyman App and general
infrastructure.

Notes to the financial statements
1 General information
Everyman Media Group PLC and its subsidiaries (together,
'the Group') are engaged in the ownership and management
of cinemas in the United Kingdom. Everyman Media Group
PLC (the Company) is a public company limited by shares
domiciled and incorporated in England and Wales (registered
number 08684079). The address of its registered office
is Studio 4, 2 Downshire Hill, London NW3 1NR.
2 Basis of preparation and accounting
policies
These condensed interim financial statements of the Group
for the period ended 4 July 2019 have been prepared using
accounting policies consistent with International Financial
Reporting Standards (IFRSs) as adopted by the European
Union. The same accounting policies, presentation and
methods of computation are followed in the condensed set
of financial statements as applied in the Group's latest
audited financial statements for the year ended 3 January
2019. Amendments made to IFRSs, specifically IFRS9 and
IFRS15, since 3 January 2019, have not had a material
effect on the Group's results or financial position for
the period. IFRS16 has had a material impact as described
in the proceeding notes.
The financial statements presented in this report have
been prepared in accordance with IFRSs applicable to interim
periods. However, as permitted, this interim report has
been prepared in accordance with the AIM Rules for Companies
and does not seek to comply with IAS34 "Interim Financial
Reporting".
These condensed interim financial statements have not
been audited, do not include all of the information required
for full annual financial statements and should be read
in conjunction with the Group's statutory consolidated
annual financial statements for the year ended 3 January
2019.
IFRS16 Leases
Effective 1 January 2019, IFRS16 has replaced IAS17 and
IFRIC4 (Determining whether an arrangement contains a
lease).
The Group adopted IFRS16 using the modified retrospective
approach on transition, recognising leases at the carried
forward value had they been treated as such from inception,
without restatement of comparative figures. On adoption
of IFRS16, the Group recognised right-of-use assets and
lease liabilities in relation to cinema venues, office
space and cars. These had previously been classified as
operating leases, including any lease incentives, favourable
leases and market rent provisions.
Right-of-use assets are measured on transition and during
the period as follows:
- Venues and office space: at an amount equal to the lease
liability less any lease incentives, favourable leases
and market rent provisions
- Cars: at an amount equal to the lease liability
The right-of-use assets at 4 July 2019 were GBP46.8m.
Lease liabilities are measured on transition at the carried
forward present value of the remaining lease payments
discounted using the Group's incremental borrowing rate
at 1 January 2019 of 3.2%. During the period lease liabilities
are measured at the present value of the lease payments
discounted using the Group's incremental borrowing rate
at inception of each lease (3.2% average during the period).
The lease liabilities at 4 July 2019 were GBP60.7m, with
GBP2.1m due within 12 months.
The difference between the right-of-use assets and lease
liabilities on transition is an adjustment to retained
earnings. Included in profit and loss for the period is
GBP1.2m depreciation of right-of-use assets and GBP1m
financial expenses on lease liabilities.

tax in the United Kingdom applied to the profit for the
period are as follows:

A reduction in the UK corporation tax rate from 21% to
20% (effective from 1 April 2015) was substantively enacted
on 2 July 2013. Further reductions to 19% (effective from
1 April 2017) and to 18% (effective 1 April 2020) were
substantively enacted on 26 October 2015 and an additional
reduction to 17% (effective 1 April 2020) was substantively
enacted on 6 September 2016. This will reduce the Group's
future current tax charge accordingly. The deferred tax
at 4 July 2019 has been calculated based in these rates.

Basic earnings per share amounts are calculated by dividing
net profit/(loss) for the period attributable to Ordinary
equity holders of the parent by the weighted average number
of Ordinary shares outstanding during the year.
The Company has 4,295,000 potentially issuable shares
(2018: 5,575,000) all of which relate to the potential
dilution from the Group's share options issued to the
Directors and certain employees and contractors, under
the Group's incentive arrangements.
6 Right-of-use assets
Implementation of IFRS16 Leases accounting standard
in the period
At the beginning of the period the Group accounted for
the net present value of existing operating leases as
lease liabilities and equivalent right-of-use assets less
any lease incentives, favourable leases and market rent
provisions. The Group opted to use a modified retrospective
approach by recognising the leases at the carried forward
value had they been treated as such from inception. This
is reflected as an adjustment to retained earnings of
GBP3.1m. After accounting for newly-signed leases, contributions
from landlords and depreciating existing right-of-use
assets by GBP1.2m, the resulting figure carried forward
of GBP46.8m is shown in non-current assets.
7 Lease liabilities
Implementation of IFRS16 Leases accounting standard
in the period
After accounting for newly-signed leases, repayments of
existing leases and financing costs of GBP1m, the resulting
figure carried forward of GBP60.7m is shown in current
and non-current lease liabilities.
8 Acquisition of Group companies
Acquisitions in the period
During the period Everyman Media Group PLC acquired the
remaining A Ordinary shares in Everyman Media Holdings
Limited for GBP1.7m. Consideration was paid in a share-for-share
exchange of newly-issued shares in Everyman Media Group
PLC. The consideration in excess of net assets acquired
was accounted for as acquisition of non-controlling interests
without any resulting change in control of GBP1.5m.
The Group also acquired 100 Ordinary shares, being the
entire issued share capital, of Foxdon Ltd (a limited
company established and resident in Republic of Ireland)
for EUR100 on 24 June 2019.
