Alex Scrimgeour, Chief Executive of Everyman Media Group PLC, said:
"The first half of the financial year has been a period of progress on all
fronts, with healthy admissions growth and robust spend per head, suggesting
we are now back on track following the turbulence of recent years. Despite
reduced film output due to the effect of low production during the pandemic,
we've enjoyed three of the ten highest-ever box office releases in the past
twelve months.
Looking ahead, we are optimistic about our prospects. We are confident that
film production is back up to full speed and that the flow of excellent
content will be bigger and better going forward, beginning with an attractive
pipeline of new releases over the remainder of this year and next.
We have started the second half of 2022 in line with expectations and the
outlook for the remainder is promising. The acceleration of our openings
strategy is now well underway and we are excited about the wealth of
opportunities emerging to bolster and supplement the Everyman brand outside of
the core proposition.
Cinema will always be an important part of the fabric of the UK as a place to
be entertained, and has historically remained as such during more difficult
economic conditions and recession. We are confident that our unique brand of
Everyman hospitality remains as relevant as ever."

Chief Executive's Statement
The first half of 2022 was very positive for Everyman despite the impact of
the Omicron outbreak at the beginning of the period, with Group revenue of
£40.7m, an increase of £11.8m vs. H1 2019. This was the last comparative
period where the estate was open for a full 26 weeks. We welcomed nearly 1.8m
customers into our venues, an increase of 0.3m vs. H1 2019, with our market
share increasing from 3.0% to 4.5% accordingly. This demonstrates that the
appetite for the Everyman offer remains strong, and is growing.
A number of titles performed particularly well in the period. Chief among them
was Top Gun: Maverick at the end of May, a long-anticipated sequel to the 1986
original which has now grossed over £80m at the UK Box Office, with Everyman
receiving a 5.8% market share to date. Other strong titles included The Batman
in March and Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness in May. Post-period
end, NT Live: Prima Facie became our most successful Event Cinema ever, with
Everyman taking an incredible 18.2% market share and the highest number of
national admissions. For Where the Crawdads Sing, we took four of the top five
venues nationally, and a 10.9% market share.
Building our team
In the period, we have bolstered our committed and enthusiastic team to over
1,200, including key hires in Procurement and Finance as well as local venue
managers to support our growth ambitions.
Will Worsdell joined the Board as Finance Director in June, having formerly
held senior Finance roles at several leisure and hospitality businesses,
including Head of Commercial Finance at Côte Brasserie, and will support the
Group as we continue to grow.
Baroness Ruby McGregor-Smith joined the Board as a Non-Executive Director
post-period end on 20 September 2022. Ruby brings a wealth of experience to
Everyman, having formerly been the Chief Executive of Mitie Group Plc, a
strategic outsourcing company. Amongst other roles, Ruby is the Chair of
MindGym Plc, the President of the British Chambers of Commerce and has also
been a non-executive board member at the Department for Culture, Media and
Sport and the Department for Education.
Enhancing the Everyman experience
We also continue to innovate on the core Everyman offer. In H1 2022 we added a
series of multi-venue streaming events in partnership with AppleTV+, bringing
exclusive programming to Everyman audiences across the country, including a
high profile Q&A with actor Gary Oldman. We put on a strong events
calendar, with - amongst others - opening parties held for both Downton Abbey:
A New Era and Elvis and charity screenings to support those displaced by the
war in Ukraine. We also branched out into immersive cinema, with events held
for Nightmare Alley in January and, post-period end, for See How They Run.
Such events elevate the Everyman experience further, and once again lead the
exhibition circuit into more ambitious territory.
Post-period end, "Summer in the City" has seen Everyman pop-ups return to
Screen on the Canal at Granary Square, London, The Secret Garden at The Grove
Hotel, Hertfordshire, and, for the first time, to the iconic courtyard at
Somerset House. These open-air venues have brought the magic of film and the
Everyman brand to thousands of people over the July to September period.
Our food and beverage offer continues to evolve. With a focus on giving our
customers more choice, we have added new vegan items and sharing dishes to our
menus. An estate-wide rollout of new handheld devices has enabled our
customers to order from their seats more seamlessly and efficiently, and we
are seeing the impact of this on average spends.
Growing the estate
As at 28 September 2022, Everyman currently has 38 cinemas and 129 screens. We
opened a new five-screen venue in Edinburgh on 2 April and, most recently, a
new four-screen venue in Egham on 23 September.
Demonstrating our continued confidence in Everyman's prospects, our roll-out
pipeline continues, with a new venue due to open in Durham in November 2022.
The pipeline for 2023 is well-developed, with four further venues confirmed
and another two nearing exchange.
The Board is constantly evaluating new opportunities to grow the Everyman
estate, be that a new build, the conversion of an existing building or the
acquisition of other cinemas, the key consideration always being that any new
venue meets the Board's investment criteria. The Company is not currently
actively evaluating the acquisition of any portfolio of cinemas.
To maintain our high standards and differentiation against the market we have
continued to invest in our existing estate and, in the year to 28 September
2022, have fully refurbished our venues in Bristol, Birmingham, Canary Wharf,
Esher and Hampstead.
Performance Review
The Group uses the key performance indicators of Admissions, Box Office
Average Ticket Price and Food & Beverage Spend per Head to monitor the
progress of the Group's activities.
26 weeks 26 weeks 26 weeks
ended ended ended
30 June 2022 1 July 2021 4 July 2019

*Average ticket price has been adjusted to reflect the reduction in VAT from
20% to 12.5% in H1 2022 (until 1 April 2022) and from 20% to 5% in H1 2021.
**Spend per head has been adjusted to reflect the reduction in VAT from 20% to
12.5% across certain items in H1 2022 (until 1 April 2022), and from 20% to 5%
in H1 2021. Deliveroo income has also been removed to enable like for like
comparison with H1 2019.
Admissions
Admissions continued to gather positive momentum in the first half of 2022.
Comparison to the same period in 2021 is challenging due to
government-mandated closure of all venues until 17(th) May last year. However,
admissions increased by 20% vs. the first half of 2019, driven by organic
growth and the opening of nine new venues in the intervening period.
On a non-VAT adjusted basis, Box Office revenue increased by 22% vs. the first
half of 2019 and Everyman was the only national operator in growth, with the
broader UK cinema industry experiencing a 20% decline. This shows that
appetite for the Everyman experience continues to grow and that customers are
returning to our cinemas in greater numbers.
Average Ticket Price and Spend per Head
With the VAT benefit removed, Spend per Head increased by 28.9% when compared
to the same period in 2019, driven by continued investment in our menu and
technology, giving our customers more choice and enabling quicker and more
efficient service to seats.
The fall in average ticket price, whilst modest at 1.5%, has been driven by
the opening of nine new venues between H1 2019 and the end of the period. With
some exceptions, new venues open in lower pricing tiers, which can temporarily
reduce average ticket price until those venues mature. Since H1 2019 we have
also opened more venues outside of London, where ticket prices are typically
lower.
Outlook
We continue to be optimistic about the future. As we move through the second
half, with encouraging admissions levels to date and a strong film slate
anticipated in Q4, we remain on track to at least meet expectations for the
full year. The economic backdrop at present is characterised by uncertainty,
but we believe our premium, differentiated offering and strong balance sheet
stand us in good stead.
We remain confident in our offering and our ability to continue to grow sales,
innovate and expand, and look forward to welcoming more and more customers to
an Everyman over time.

*Adjusted EBITDA refers to Operating Profit adjusted for the removal of
depreciation, amortisation, profit / loss on disposal of fixed assets,
pe-opening expenses, lease termination costs, impairment charges and
share-based payment expenses.
Revenue and Operating Profit
Group revenue in H1 2022 was £40.7m compared to £7.7m in the same period
last year and £28.9m in the first six months of 2019, due to the upward
trajectory of admissions and the opening of nine new venues between H1 2019
and the end of the period.
Additionally, in July 2020 the Chancellor introduced a temporary reduced rate
of VAT for the hospitality sector, from which Everyman was able to benefit. In
H1 2022 the reduced rate of VAT was 12.5%, until 31 March 2022, at which point
the standard rate of VAT resumed. For the entirety of H1 2021 the reduced rate
of VAT was 5%.
The table below shows revenue adjusted for the removal of the VAT benefit in
each relevant period.
26 Weeks Ended 30 June 2022 26 Weeks Ended 1 July 2021 26 Weeks Ended 4 July 2019
£000 £000 £000
VAT-adjusted Revenue 39,788 6,830 28,924
Box Office 19,645 3,178 16,629
Food & Beverage 16,358 2,524 10,261
Other 3,785 1,128 2,034
The temporary reduced rate of VAT resulted in a £0.9m revenue benefit in H1
2022 and a £0.8m revenue benefit in H1 2021.
With the VAT benefit removed, like-for-like Box Office and Food & Beverage
revenue increased by 2.1% vs. the same period in 2019.
Gross Profit Margin in H1 2022 was 62.5%, or 61.7% with the aforementioned VAT
benefit removed. This is consistent with prior years.
We received significantly less government support in the period, the only
contribution being £0.2m in the form of the Omicron Hospitality and Leisure
Grant. In 2021 we received £2.8m from the Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme
and £0.9m in the form of Coronavirus Business Support Grants.
Administrative Expenses increased from £16.3m in H1 2019 to £24.8m in H1
2022. This is commensurate with the increase in venues: 28 were open at the
end of H1 2019 and 37 at the end of H1 2022. Our largest cost increase was
Labour (a £4m increase vs. H1 2019), driven by the aforementioned new
openings, a larger Head Office team to support the growing business and an 21%
increase in National Living Wage from the beginning of H1 2019 to the end of
H1 2022 driving pay increases for our teams.
Utilities costs were £0.9m during the period (H1 2019: £0.6m), increasing in
line with the growing estate. A significant proportion of utilities contracts
are fixed until October 2023.
Net finance costs
The Group's net bank interest payable was £288k in H1 2022, a £38k increase
on the same period last year, as a result of the higher base rate and
increased loan commitment fees due to the £10m extension of the facility in
March 2021.
The Group's finance charge in H1 2022 was £1.4m (H1 2021 £1.3m) and is
interest charges relating to the unwinding of the IFRS 16 lease liability in
the period.
Share based payments
The share-based payment expense for the period was £784k (H1
2021: £1,129k) reflecting share option incentives provided to the Group's
management and employees.
Cash flows
Net cash generated in operating activities was £9.1m (H1 2021: £0.3m; year
ended 30 December 2021: £12.2m). The net cash inflow for the period was
£1.7m (H1 2021: £1.3m; year ended 30 December 2021: £3.8m). This is
largely represented by capital expenditure of £7.5m relating to build costs
for new venues, existing venue refurbishment and new systems to support the
growing business.
Cash held at the end of the period was £5.9m (1 July 2021: £1.7m, 30
December 2021: £4.2m). The cash held will be invested in the continuing
development and expansion of the Group's business.
The Group has access to a £40m facility of which £14.5m was drawn at the end
of the period.
The Board does not recommend the payment of a dividend at this stage of the
Group's development.
Capital Expenditure
During the period, the Group opened a new five-screen venue in Edinburgh, on 2
April 2022. Post-period end, the Group opened a new four-screen venue in
Egham, on 23 September 2022. We are on track to open a four-screen venue in
Durham in November 2022, and six further venues in 2023.
The Group continues to invest in its existing estate to maintain high
standards and differentiation against the wider market. During the period we
refurbished our venues in Bristol and Birmingham and, post-period end, in
Canary Wharf, Esher and Hampstead.
Capital investment during the period was £6.7m, of which £5.6m was on
venues. The remainder related to infrastructure and head office costs to
support the continued growth of the business. Key projects during the period
included new handheld devices and kitchen screens in venues, to improve the
speed, efficiency and accuracy of our food & beverage offer to customers.

2 Basis of preparation and accounting policies
These condensed interim financial statements of the Group for the period ended
30 June 2022 have been prepared using accounting policies consistent with UK
adopted International Accounting Standards. 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 30 December 2021.
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 30 December 2021. The auditor's
opinion on these financial statements was unqualified, did not draw attention
to any matters by way of emphasis and did not contain a statement under
s498(2) or s498(3) of the Companies Act 2006.
Going Concern
As part of the adoption of the going concern basis, Everyman continues to
consider the uncertainty caused by the macroeconomic environment. The Group's
financing arrangements include a £30m rolling credit facility (RCF), and a
government-backed Coronavirus Large Business Interruption Loan Scheme
("CLBILS") of £10m, both repayable on or before 15 January 2024. As at 30
June 2022 the Group had drawn £14.5m of this facility and had cash of £5.9m,
therefore the net debt position was £8.6m, with the undrawn facility at
£25.5m.
The facility has leverage and fixed cover charge covenants, and previous
liquidity and EBITDA covenants ended on 31 May 2022. The Board has reviewed
forecast scenarios and is confident that the business can continue to operate
with sufficient headroom. These forecasts consider scenarios in which there is
no further growth in admissions beyond 2022 levels and include realistic
assumptions around wage increases and inflation. Utilities contracts are fixed
until October 2023 for the majority of venues.
In light of this, the Board consider it appropriate to adopt the going concern
basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.

Restatement 1
The previously reported results have been restated in respect of two leases as
follows:
Canary Wharf
An assumption was made that rent would increase from March 2020, however, this
was not the case. As a result, the opening lease liability and right of use
asset required amendment, as the discounted cashflows were greater than
actually payable.
Correcting this led to a reduction in the right of use asset of £223,000 with
a corresponding decrease in the lease liability of £344,000 and increase in
retained earnings of £160,000. This also gave rise to a decrease in
depreciation charge of £45,000 and decrease in finance charge of £24,000. An
adjustment to the gain on concession was made to reduce the gain by £21,000.
Chelmsford
Implicit in the lease is a contractual 2.5% compound increase in rent every 5
years. This meets the definition of an in-substance fixed payment and so
should be accounted for when discounting the future cash flows upon
recognition of the lease.
Accounting for this amendment has led to an increase in right of use asset of
£1,174,000 with a corresponding increase of £1,462,000 to the lease
liability and a decrease in retained earnings of £197,000. This also gave
rise to an increase in depreciation charge of £103,000 and an increase in
finance charge of £107,000.
The net impact of both adjustments in Restatement 1 is a reduction in Group
profit across 2019 and 2020 of £199,000.
Restatement 2
After finalisation of the prior period financial statements there was a change
to the Practical Expedient for rental concessions to include those effecting
lease payments up to 30 June 2022. The original practical expedient was
limited to arrangements that impacted rent payments up to 30 June 2021. This
meant that some concessions that had previously been treated as modifications
could now be accounted for using the Practical Expedient.
Accounting for the relevant concessions using the practical expedient gave
rise to a decrease in the group lease liability of £26,000.
Gain on concessions was increased by £26,000, which is the net impact to
Group profit in 2020 for Restatement 2.

The Company has 6.9m potentially issuable shares (H1 2021: 7.5m) 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. In the current period these options are anti-dilutive as they
would reduce the loss per share and so haven't been included in the diluted
earnings per share.
