The Revel Collective PLC - Manchester, England-based operator of pubs and bars - Pretax profit balloons to GBP30.1 million in the 26 weeks to December 28 from GBP3.1 million a year prior, despite revenue falling to GBP64.2 million from GBP82.3 million. Bottom line benefits from exceptional items credit of GBP28.4 million compared with GBP3.9 million. No dividend declared. Says trading in the bars continued to be challenging due to the reduced consumer confidence currently impacting the UK nighttime economy. Further, the restructuring plan in Revolution Bars Ltd which was completed two months later than originally planned, led to prolonged uncertainty. On the plus side, notes record levels of pre-booked corporate bookings in bar brands in the festive trading period. Remains confident of achieving alternative performance measure adjusted earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation of GBP2.0 to GBP4.0 million as previously announced in January.
