Marston's PLC - Wolverhampton, England-based based operator of 1,334 pubs across UK - Expects to meet market expectations for GBP68.3 million in underlying pretax profit for financial 2025, which runs to the end of September, after a "particularly strong key festive trading period".

In the two weeks from December 22 to January 4, LFL sales were up 11% on year, including "record" sales on Christmas Day itself. Marston's will publish its half-year results on May 13. Read More
