Marston's interim results 00:00:05.016 -- 00:00:07.659 for financial year 25. 00:00:07.659 -- 00:00:10.542 My name's Justin Platt. I'm the chief exec. 00:00:10.542 -- 00:00:14.264 And with me is Hayley, who you all know is our CFO. 00:00:14.426 -- 00:00:17.669 Take you through the results today. We'll do the following running order. 00:00:17.669 -- 00:00:19.651 I'll 00:00:19.651 -- 00:00:21.493 touch on the headlines. Hand over to Hayley. 00:00:21.493 -- 00:00:24.236 She'll give you the detail of the financials. 00:00:24.236 -- 00:00:28.421 And then I'll come back to give a bit of colour on the progress we're making on the strategy 00:00:28.421 -- 00:00:30.760 that we outlined in October. 00:00:30.760 -- 00:00:34.245 And then we'll pull it all together and take some time for questions. 00:00:34.245 -- 00:00:39.451 So a really good first half for us.

So despite the headwinds, we've grown our margins. 00:00:53.550 -- 00:00:58.577 So it's the EBITDA's at 86 million, which is 14% up year on year. 00:00:58.577 -- 00:01:03.988 And really... That's about the progress we are making with the strategy. 00:01:04.750 -- 00:01:10.135 Whether it be driving the operating model and the execution of the operating model, 00:01:10.135 -- 00:01:13.538 the progress we're making on our new formats, 00:01:13.538 -- 00:01:19.741 but also increasingly the opportunity that we're seeking to unlock on digital transformation. 00:01:19.783 -- 00:01:24.427...
