The Group performed well during the full-year, achieving total sales growth of 7.5%.

Like-for-like sales growth was 2.7%, which demonstrates the strength of consumer demand, despite the significant impact of unprecedented hot weather during the summer period.聽

The Group has made further progress with the expansion of the estate with the acquisition of four sites, which was at the upper end of the acquisitions forecast. All four sites have been extensively refurbished during FY18 and are expected to perform in line with our expectations during FY19. In addition, one under-performing site was disposed of during the year.聽

Our pipeline of opportunities remains strong for the coming year and we retain our guidance for growth of two to four sites per annum.

The Board's expectations for FY18 Group adjusted EBITDA remain unchanged.

TEG expects to announce its full-year results on 20 March 2019.

Nick Basing, Chairman, commented:聽

"I am very pleased with this performance, the 7th consecutive year of like-for-like sales growth, despite the headwinds of the extreme summer conditions.聽

"It demonstrates that the fast-growing and substantial 'experiential' segment of leisure in which we operate, with a largely invested, well proven, and technology enabled proposition for families and millennials, provides us with confidence during the current economic and politically uncertain times.

"We continue to find opportunities to expand our footprint and successfully apply our business model when making acquisitions.

"We look forward to a strong year of growth ahead."

Duncan Garrood, Chief Executive Officer, commented:

"I am pleased to have joined a business that delivered good sales growth in the last financial year. I have been very impressed by the quality of the people throughout the business, their focus on high standards of customer service and their commercial acumen.

"I am excited for the year ahead and look forward to driving a number of our key strategies such as our focus on digital, innovation and an enhanced customer experience."
