Revolution Bars Group PLC - Tameside, England-based bar chain - Swings to pretax loss of GBP91,000 in the half year to December 31, amid high energy costs, compared to a profit of GBP4.3 million a year ago.

Anticipates to achieve adjusted earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation in line with market expectations for financial year 2023, ending July 1.
