The Board of Revolution Bars Group plc is pleased to announce the appointment of Jemima Bird as a Non-Executive Director of the Company from 19 December 2016.

Jemima's appointment brings to the Board expertise in branding, marketing and digital communications and a best practice Board structure.

Jemima (44) is a marketer with experience spanning 20 years in many of the UK's leading High Street brands. She founded Jbird Consulting in 2013 and is currently working with the Co-operative Group as Customer Director, which she re- joined in January 2016, on an interim basis, having worked there previously in various branding and marketing roles from 1996 to 2008.

Keith Edelman, Chairman said:

"We are delighted that Jemima is joining Revolution. Branding, marketing and digital communication is central to our proposition and Jemima's experience in large, fast moving consumer companies will be of particular benefit in this critical facet of our business. The Board welcomes Jemima and looks forward to working with her."

Jemima Bird commented:

"Joining Revolution at this time is exciting. Revolution has a customer profile who live their lives through social engagement. Marketing through the proliferation of channels is ever more important to the success of consumer facing leisure retail businesses. I will endeavour to bring my experience to the benefit to the business and the Board."

Location,Location,Location. Revolution have created a chain of Bars in ideal locations around the country.That and their largely self funding aspect are what attracted me to this stock,together with their attractive expansion programme.

As soon as I saw the offer for Punch I bought a load of Enterprise Inns as a calculated punt. Punch and Enterprise different to RBG in couple of major ways in that they own a lot of real estate and have high interest, complicated debt. If Punch is taken over then Enterprise comes into play in my opinion hence the strong share rise the last 2 days.RBG rent their units which I like as with the decline of the high street and city centres then rents should remain fairly static or not increase too much in the next few years plus RBG can negotiate excellent rent free or discount periods for any new tenancy starts.

It must be a tiny burger.

[excell1] 15/12/2016 19:11

Only 150 calories :)

[flyposter] 15/12/2016 18:02

@someuwin I could smash that burger right now.

[excell1] 15/12/2016 17:51

Market trying to make us sell our shares by boring us all to death

[excell1] 14/12/2016 21:32

Is the industry consolidating?

[someuwin] 14/12/2016 13:12

Offer for Punch Taverns.

And I had not noticed the presentation someuwin.Company seems to be growing at a tremendous pace.I note that there are quite a few more female customers than male.
Maybe it's about time I had a look in there for that reason at least :)

[someuwin] 14/12/2016 10:41

Cheers excell I missed that RNS.

Here's a copy of the presentation.

All very impressive - especially their use of digital marketing / social media.

[excell1] 14/12/2016 10:16

Looking forward to reading the Analysts report on these.Should be good.

[excell1] 07/12/2016 22:55

Great article someuwin thanks for posting.
Also love the fact that the newly opened Bars are in the right locations and are all trading for Christmas and the New year.

This growth star could double

"...If you are looking for an exciting small-cap company with serious growth potential, you may want to consider Revolution Bars. The group, which has a market cap of £91m, is rolling out its upmarket Revolution and Revolución de Cuba bar formats across the UK.

Revolution's sales rose by 6.9% last year, while adjusted earnings per share rose by 14% to 14.6p. The group also paid a 4.8p dividend, giving a trailing yield of 2.6%.

Revolution has a massive advantage over some of its peers. The group's expansion is being funded entirely from its operating cash flow. There's no debt. This significantly reduces the risk of investing. The group's high margins and strong cash flow also mean that when expansion slows, cash available for shareholder returns should rise sharply.

I'm not really sure why Revolution Bars' shares have performed so badly this year. They've risen by just 5%, and currently trade on a forecast P/E of 11, with a prospective yield of 3%. That looks too cheap to me, given that earnings per share are expected to rise by about 14% over each of the next two years.

In my opinion, this well-run business looks like a decent buy at current levels..."

Massive volume today.

[connor23] 06/12/2016 12:24

Bit of volume here today which is good to see. Overhang clearing?

[113mike] 06/12/2016 11:09

Yep...looking good. Topped up at £1.82 earlier. Cam see me being in RBG for a good while as its in my SIPP and the div is useful too. (All imho)

[someuwin] 06/12/2016 11:05

Looking perky today.

[excell1] 30/11/2016 12:07

Just get that overhang out of the way and start to collect the divi's....Nice

[excell1] 30/11/2016 08:30

Great RNS,Revolution expanding faster than I thought.

[geheimnis2] 30/11/2016 07:31

Should break 200p soon?

[panic investor] 30/11/2016 07:22

Harrogate will fly they drink like fish in that town with very limited venues

[discodave4] 28/11/2016 18:25

Someuwin,Thanks.Would imagine that they will still be debt free post their acquisitions (any thoughts?). They invested £12.8m last year and have a target of five new sites so based on last year £2.5m per site should not be stretching them too much (I hope!).DD
