Capital Markets Event and Trading Update

 

Time Out Group plc (AIM: TMO), the global media and leisure business, is hosting a site visit to Time Out Market Lisbon for the sell side this week, providing insights into operational execution, the consumer experience, the build and scale up of the first Time Out Market as well as an overview of the concept's international roll out. No new material information will be delivered during the event and a presentation will subsequently be made available on the Group's investor relations website.

 

The Company is encouraged by the early trading of the five sites opened in 2019. New Markets in Miami, New York, Boston, Montréal and Chicago, have replicated - with a strong local focus - the concept first launched in Lisbon, which is now Portugal's most popular attraction with c. 4 million visitors a year. In combination, the six Time Out Markets offer food from 120 of the world's best chefs, occupy 185,000 square feet and accommodate almost 4,000 seats. The global roll-out is set to continue with planned launches in Dubai (2020), London (2021) and Prague (2023).

 

In light of the delayed opening of Time Out Market Chicago and Time Out Market Montréal, combined with additional Market investment, there will be a modest impact to full year EBITDA. The Group however remains on track to reach the key milestone of profitability in 2020.
