Chairman's statement
Introduction
Following the difficult period of the pandemic, we started 2022 expecting the year to be less challenging. Sales performance compared to 2019 was strong but has been marred by labour shortages and inflationary pressures impacting the hospitality industry. These cost pressures became more acute towards the end of the first half of 2022.
Like many of our competitors and the economy in general, we are facing severe headwinds. Inflationary pressures on food, labour and utility costs and the cost-of-living crisis will inevitably impact the performance of the Company for at least the remainder of the year.
Having navigated our way successfully through the difficult periods in the recent past, we are in a good position to manage these challenges once again; through a tight focus on cost controls and ensuring that we are delivering an excellent experience for our customers.
We have agreed heads of terms for a new Wildwood site in Oxfordshire. Our dim t brand has experienced a resurgence, and we are converting the former underperforming Wildwood in Loughton to a dim t, which is due to open in the Autumn. Whilst there is a strong pipeline of sites identified, due to current uncertainties, we have slowed our previously announced expansion plans and will cautiously approach any new openings as we brace ourselves for an even more challenging economic environment, which is beginning to adversely impact our profitability in the second half of 2022.
We continue to build solid teams and have invested at a central level to overcome these challenges, streamline processes and enhance our offering.
In June 2022, we repaid the amount outstanding under our Barclays Bank facility of £1.1m and subsequently cancelled the facility. Based on the base rate at the time, there will be an annualised interest saving of approximately £57,000. The Board made the decision that repaying the loan was the best course of action given the Company's healthy cash balance and the base rates rise.
People
In a tight labour market, we are pleased to say that the number of people we employ is back to over 1,000 following the requisite redundancies during the pandemic. However, with a competitive labour market, we continue to work hard to engage our teams and ensure that we are competitive through continuously reviewing training, progression and pay.
In June 2022, Harald Samúelsson, stepped up to become an Executive Director with responsibility for food and operational support and, at the same time, Wendy Dixon was appointed as an independent Non-Executive Director.
Wendy has spent two decades working with global brands, in a variety of leadership roles in multiple markets. More recently she was appointed as M&C Saatchi Group's first Chief Growth Officer in 2019 with responsibility for leading internal collaboration, building the brand of the company externally and bringing together both capabilities and talent for new and existing clients to grow.
To focus and improve our food offering a new Head of Food joined the Company in May 2022 with the initial focus being the development of our Christmas menu.
Inflationary costs
To reduce the impact of food and labour challenges, our menu is constantly being reviewed. We are working with existing and new suppliers to minimise disruption and continue to re-tender. The well documented utility pressures are unprecedented, and the hospitality industry is particularly badly affected. The Government unveiled an energy support plan on 8 September 2022 to support businesses for six months, but the details have yet to be announced. In the meantime, we are looking at ways of minimising our energy usage and improving efficiencies.
Environmental, social and governance
The wellbeing and safety of our employees and customers is at the centre of all that we do. We have also retained our focus on sustainability and the environmental impact of the business, and we are an equal opportunities employer.
Property negotiations
The Group has been successful in achieving rent reductions and lease concessions across most of the estate for the period impacted by Covid-19 with the final few agreements completed during H1 2022. We are continuing to review all our leases with a view to disposing or re-gearing low performing sites.
Results
Revenue increased by 85% to £21.5m (H1 2021: £11.6m). In the period under review, we have benefited from unrestricted dine-in sales and also grown our takeaway and delivery business. However, we have seen a slowdown in the second half due to our focus on dine-in and changing consumer habits. Revenue for the comparative period in 2021 was severely impacted by the lockdown restrictions.
The adjusted EBITDA for the period was £2.7m (H1 2021: £0.8m).
Operating profit before highlighted items was £0.4m (H1 2021: loss £1.4m).
We have reviewed the impairment provision across the right-of-use-assets and fixed assets and have made a net provision of £1.6m (H1 2021: £nil).
After taking into account all non-trade adjustments, the Group has a stated loss after tax for the period of £2.7m (H1 2021: loss £2.7m).
Cash flows and financing
Cash inflow from operations was £0.9m (H1 2021: £2.4m). Repayment of the bank loan amounted to £1.25m during the period (H1 2021: drawn down of £1.25m).
Overall, the net cash outflow for the period was £3m (H1 2021: inflow £1.8m). As at 26 June 2022, the Group had net cash after the bank loan of £8.0m (H1 2021: net cash of £8.6m). After allowing for deferred payments due to creditors, net cash was £7.0m (H1 2021: net cash of £4.2m).
Going concern
The Directors have a reasonable expectation that the Group has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. In reaching this conclusion the Directors have considered the financial position of the Group, together with its forecasts for the next 12 months from the date of approval of these interim accounts and taking into account possible changes in trading performance. The going concern basis of accounting has, therefore, been adopted in preparing the interim financial report.
Outlook
Utility cost management and pressure on revenue as living costs continue to rise will be our biggest challenges over the coming months, although we await details of the Government's support package. We will endeavour to mitigate all pressures carefully by continuing to focus on savings and customer experience. Despite these uncertainties the Board remains confident of managing current challenges and the Group will cautiously consider future expansion opportunities for growth.
Finally thank you once again to all our people, shareholders, suppliers and other stakeholders who continue to support us.

Notes to the condensed financial statements
for the 26 weeks ended 26 June 2022 (unaudited)
1 General information
Tasty plc is a public limited company incorporated in the United Kingdom under the Companies Act (registration number 05826464). The Company is domiciled in the United Kingdom and its registered address is 32 Charlotte Street, London, W1T 2NQ. The Company's ordinary shares are traded on the AIM Market of the London Stock Exchange ("AIM"). Copies of this Interim Report and the Annual Report and Financial Statements may be obtained from the above address or on the investor relations section of the Company's website at www.dimt.co.uk.
2 Basis of accounting
The condensed set of financial statements included in this interim financial report has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 'Interim Financial Reporting', as adopted by the United Kingdom and accounting policies consistent with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (IFRIC) interpretations as endorsed by the United Kingdom. The same accounting policies, presentation and methods of computation have been followed in the preparation of these results as were applied in the Company's latest annual audited financial statements.
The financial information for the 26 weeks ended 26 June 2022 has not been subject to an audit nor a review in accordance with International Standard on Review Engagements 2410, Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity, issued by the Financial Reporting Council.
The financial information for the period ended 26 December 2021 does not constitute the full statutory accounts for that period. The Annual Report and Financial Statements for 2021 have been filed with the Registrar of Companies. The Independent Auditors' Report on the Annual Report and Financial Statements for 2021 was unqualified, did not draw attention to any matters by way of emphasis, and did not contain a statement under 498(2) or 498(3) of the Companies Act 2006.
The condensed financial statements are presented in sterling and all values are rounded to the nearest thousand pounds (£'000).
Except when otherwise indicated, the consolidated accounts incorporate the financial statements of Tasty plc and its subsidiary, Took Us A Long Time Limited, made up to the relevant period end.
Use of judgements and estimates
In preparing these interim financial statements management has made judgements and estimates that affect the application of accounting policies and measurement of assets and liabilities, income and expense provisions. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
Going concern
The Directors have a reasonable expectation that the Group has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. In reaching this conclusion the Directors have considered the financial position of the Group, together with its forecasts for the next 12 months from the date of approval of these interim accounts and taking into account possible changes in trading performance. The Group monitors cash balances and impact of inflation closely to ensure there is sufficient liquidity. Accordingly, the Directors believe that it remains appropriate to prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis.
IFRS 16 'Leases'
Group's accounting policies for leases are as follows:
Lessee accounting
IFRS 16 distinguishes between leases and service contracts on the basis of whether the use of an identified asset is controlled by the customer. Control is considered to exist if the customer has:
• The right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from the use of an identified asset; and
• The right to direct the use of that asset in exchange for consideration.
The Group first adopted IFRS 16 for its period starting 30 December 2019 using the modified retrospective approach on transition, recognising leases at the carried forward value had they been treated as such from inception, without restatement of comparative figures. On adoption of IFRS 16, the Group recognised right-of-use assets and lease liabilities in relation to the restaurant sites it leases for its business.
All leases are accounted for by recognising a right-of-use asset and a lease liability except for:
• Leases of low value assets, and
• Leases with a duration of 12 months or less.
Subsequent to initial measurement lease liabilities increase as a result of interest charged at a constant rate on the balance outstanding and are reduced for lease payments made. Right-of-use assets are amortised on a straight-line basis over the remaining term of the lease.
Lessor accounting
Under IFRS 16, a lessor continues to classify leases as either finance leases or operating leases and account for those two types of leases differently.
Based on an analysis of the Group's operating leases as at 26 June 2022 on the basis of the facts and circumstances that exist at that date, the Directors of the Group have assessed that the impact of this change has not had any impact on the amounts recognised in the Group's consolidated financial statements.
Short-term leases and leases of low-value assets
The Group has elected not to recognise right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for short-term leases that have a lease term of 12 months or less and leases of low value assets. The Group recognises these payments as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Currently the Group has no low value assets or short-term leases.
Covid-19 related rent concessions
IFRS 16 defines a lease modification as a change in the scope of a lease, or the consideration for a lease, that was not part of the original terms and conditions of the lease. The Group has considered the Covid-19 related rent concessions and applied the lease modifications accounting treatment, rather than the practical expedient.
Impairments
All assets (ROU and fixed assets) are reviewed for impairment in accordance with IAS 36 Impairment of Assets, when there are indications that the carrying value may not be recoverable.
Assets are subject to impairment tests whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amount may not be recoverable. Where the carrying value of an asset or a cash generating unit (CGU) exceeds its recoverable amount, i.e. the higher of value in use and fair value less costs to dispose of the asset, the asset is written down accordingly. The Group views each restaurant as a separate CGU. Value in use is calculated using cash flows excluding outflows from financing costs over the remaining life of the lease for the CGU discounted at 8% (2021: 6%), being the rate considered to reflect the risks associated with the CGUs. A growth rate of 2% has been applied (2021: 0.5%).
An impairment review was undertaken across the ROU assets and fixed assets which resulted in a net impairment charge of £1.6m (2021: £nil). Where an impairment reversal is recognised, the carrying amount of the asset will be increased to its recoverable amount with the increase being recognised in the income statement. This increased amount cannot exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation, had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years.
The assumptions will be reviewed at year-end to ensure that the cashflow expectations are in line with the latest outlook.
Other income
In accordance with IAS 20 (Accounting for Government Grants and Disclosure of Government Assistance) guidelines, the Group has recognised the salary expense as normal and recognised the grant income in profit and loss as the Group becomes entitled to the grant.
Other income includes Government Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme ("CJRS") of £nil (2021: £1.9m), sub-let property income of £0.2m (2021: £0.1m) and Government Grants of £nil (2021: £1.8m).
3 Income tax
The income tax charge has been calculated by reference to the estimated effective corporation tax and deferred tax rates of 19% (2021: 19%).
Tax charge £nil (2021: £nil).

The basic and diluted (loss)/profit per share figures are calculated by dividing the net (loss)/profit for the period attributable to shareholders by the weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue during the period. The diluted earnings per share figure allows for the dilutive effect of the conversion into ordinary shares of the weighted average number of options outstanding during the period. Options are only taken into account when their effect is to reduce basic earnings per share.

Prior year adjustment
The prior year adjustment relates to the treatment of depreciation on impaired assets and reversal of impairment.
The depreciation charge on ROU assets should have been reduced for the impairment to allow depreciation to run to the end of the life of the lease. In addition, when reversing an impairment that depreciation should be recognised if the amount at which the asset would have been carried (net of depreciation) had there been no impairment or the lower or the irrecoverable amount.

Lease liabilities are measured at the present value of the remaining lease payments, discounted using the Group's incremental borrowing rate of 4.5% and the Bank of England (BoE) base rate at the time of any lease modification or a new lease. The average rate used for modification in 2022 was 5.1% (2021: 4.6%).
The lease liabilities as at 26 June 2022 were £52.5m (2021: £54.9m).
The right-of-use assets all relate to property leases. The right-of-use assets as at 26 June 2022 were £34.6m (2021: £38.3m). During the period ended 26 June 2022 the Group made a provision for impairment of the right-of-use assets against a number of sites totalling £1.3m (2021: £nil).
Included in profit and loss for the period is £1.3m depreciation of right-of-use assets and £1.2m financial expenses on lease liabilities.
