*Proforma results including full six months trading for Time Out Market. Total tenant turnover is revenue earned by restaurants in the Time Out Market. Time Out's revenue includes a percentage fee earned on this turnover.
O&O is the Time Out 'owned and operated' business operations; global audience reach includes market visitors, website traffic, social media reach and magazine readership for both 'owned and operated' as well as international licensing networks. 'Monthly average' calculated as a rolling six month average.
Audience development
During the full six month period, the Group achieved a global monthly average audience reach of 242.3 million, growing 77% YoY. This was driven by social media reach and in particular video on Time Out's Facebook channels, with many examples generating several million views. As throughout its history, Time Out continues to participate in emerging audience channels, which will in turn drive new advertising and commerce opportunities.
The audience in the Group's owned and operated (O&O) cities grew by 149% YoY. Average website traffic (uniques) for the period increased by 3% and reach on social media grew by 123% YoY. The proportion of visits through mobile and tablet devices now exceeds 66%.
In the first half of 2017, Time Out continued to expand its presence globally through new channels. Time Out Portugal launched the Time Out Porto website in addition to its existing popular social media channels and print. In Hong Kong, Philadelphia, San Francisco and Austin, Time Out magazines were launched to complement the Company's websites, mobile and social channels to drive print brand awareness and audience engagement. These launches provide additional value to advertisers who can connect across multiple touch points with Time Out's audience. To further drive audience penetration, in July Time Out launched daily 'best of the city' briefings on Amazon Alexa - the first daily briefings about the three best things to do in NYC, LA, Chicago and London, curated and hand-picked every day by Time Out's local, city-based editors.

Time Out Digital
Organisational review
During the period, the Time Out Digital division reorganised its staff resources and skillsets against the objectives of its evolving business and a global strategy. Senior internal and external appointments were made not only of the Digital CEO (Christine Petersen) but also to the roles of Global Editor-in-Chief, Chief Revenue Officer, MD E-commerce and Chief Technology Officer. The reporting lines are now organised functionally and globally rather than nationally, which has allowed a higher level of coordination, the sharing of best practice, content collaboration, the closer alignment of product development across the offices and has reduced the cost base.
Digital and print advertising
Digital advertising revenue grew 8% YoY and was flat on a constant currency basis. Overall Group print advertising decreased 3% YoY, outperforming industry averages, indicating the strength of the Time Out brand and value of the Time Out audience. Within print, UK revenue was flat YoY, Portugal showed encouraging growth, while in US revenue declined in local currency in difficult trading conditions.
The restructuring of the Time Out Digital business in the period has allowed for a better deployment of resources and as a consequence advertising is now managed on a global basis. The Group's international advertising opportunity will grow further in H2 as website reformatting increases the available advertising estate and the Company continues to develop a video offering, which is currently at an early stage.
Local businesses: Premium Profiles
Revenue from Premium Profiles grew by 55% and the number of active listings increased by 114%. There were 1,190 active listings worldwide as of June 2017. Contributing to this growth was a further refinement of the offer, providing solutions that better suit customer type and size. The Group continues to further develop the value proposition.
E-commerce
E-commerce revenue grew 51% on prior year. This was driven by strong revenue growth of 61% YoY from affiliate partner sales largely in the UK and US and especially in the travel category, providing the Group with higher average booking values and margins. Overall number of transactions increased by 5% YoY and 17% on H2 2016. Revenue per transaction grew to GBP18.3 vs. GBP12.7 YoY aided by the addition of higher revenue items such as hotels and Live Events.
The reorganisation of Time Out Digital has brought key experienced senior management and increased e-commerce transactional skills into the team. Ahead of these appointments, there was a reduction in planned marketing spend. Whilst this will initially result in a delay to shopper acquisition, it will also result in a lower than planned cost of sales.
The Company continues to make positive progress in its strategy to develop travel and leisure e-commerce opportunities for an active audience with high purchasing intent. The Group is growing this segment, closely managing the return from traffic acquisition spend and the impact of website and partner technical developments. Progress achieved within the period:
-- The Group's e-commerce travel offering has been expanded through partnerships with Booking.com, HotelsCombined, AirBnB (September 2017) and Viator
-- Booking options continue to be added throughout the site. 32% of transactional content now has a book button, compared with 7% in June 2016
-- Integration of the checkout functionality from YPlan, acquired in October 2016, progressing
-- New cities included in the Group's owned and operated portfolio are starting to contribute revenue, either from those cities taken over from former licensing partners or through the opening of new cities principally in North America. Further expansion is expected as the opportunity exists to cost-effectively manage these rollouts
-- The Group's customer database has continued to grow and now contains 3.2 million contacts -- Organic traffic to the Group's websites continues to grow, benefiting from the strength and attractiveness of Time Out's content. New content categories, including travel and e-commerce, are seeing growth; this content is being translated for existing cities into other languages to attract visits and bookings from new audiences.
Live Events continue to expand across cities in the US and particularly in the EU, with strong revenue growth, including both ticket sales and sponsorship income.
International
In addition to its owned and operated business operations in 76 cities across 20 countries (as of September 2017), the Group has a presence in a further 32 cities across 20 countries through its international licensing arrangements. Here rights are granted to third parties to publish print magazines and produce digital content under the Time Out brand, generating revenue through the payment of fees and royalties by third party licensees.
In the period to 30 June 2017, the franchisee in Australia was acquired and Hong Kong added, at no cost, to the Group, with the franchises in Spain acquired and Singapore and Seoul added, at no cost, in August 2017. This has led to a reduction in the fee income receivable from the franchisees.
Time Out Market
The performance of the market in Lisbon has again been excellent, and ahead of expectations, with a record 1.7 million visitors in the first half and top ratings on review sites, contributing to a 59% revenue growth YoY and strong levels of profitability under the leadership of Time Out Market CEO Didier Souillat.
The Group is on track to roll out Time Out Market globally:
-- Miami - Time Out Market Miami is expected to open in 2018
-- Porto - a final planning decision is expected this autumn and if successful the market will open in the second half of 2018
-- USA - a lease for a site in a second major US city is close to completion. As appropriate planning is already approved, it is expected that this market could open in the first half 2019
-- London - with the support of the landlord, the Company intends to appeal the declined planning permission in respect of the site in Spitalfields; if planning for the site is granted and runs to timetable it is expected that the site would open in late 2019 or early 2020; meanwhile the Group continues to explore other possible sites in London
-- The Group continues to consider proposals for new locations in other cities around the world
Financial performance
Time Out Market Limited was acquired by the Group on 14 June 2016 and therefore only 17 days of trading are included in the Reported figures for 2016. To aid comparison, comparables in this section when presented on a "proforma basis" include a full six month contribution from Time Out Market Limited.
Revenue
Group revenue for the first six months was GBP18.7m (2016: GBP16.6m, proforma basis) an increase of 13% primarily through organic growth and supported by acquisitions and favourable foreign exchange movement. Growth on a constant currency proforma basis was 7%.
Gross margin
The overall gross margin of the Group was 52.8% (2016: 61.3%, proforma basis) due to the increased investment in acquisition marketing to drive e-commerce to new verticals such as hotels which has offset the growth in revenue. The gross margin of the print operation has remained constant.
Operating expenditure
Group operating expenditure, before exceptional costs, share based payments, depreciation and amortisation, was GBP19.2m (2016: GBP15.0m, proforma basis). The increased investment in operations in the second half of 2016 continued into the first half of 2017 after the particularly low level of investment in the first half of 2016 prior to funds being available from the IPO.
Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA shown in the income statement represents the profit or loss before interest, taxation, depreciation, amortisation, share based payments and one-off exceptional items.
Adjusted EBITDA loss for the period was GBP9.4m (2016: GBP4.8m loss, proforma basis), an increase due to the substantial investment in operating resources and in cost of sales to develop the e-commerce segment.
For the six months to 30 June 2017, Time Out Market Lisbon had an adjusted EBITDA of GBP0.8m (2016: GBP0.5 million). After the costs of the central team, the Time Out Market division had an adjusted EBITDA loss of GBP0.2m (2016: GBP0.4 million).
Group revenue is typically biased towards the second half and this additional income, combined with an improvement in operating margin in the second half as a result of the global realignment of the business described, above is expected to result in a lower level of losses in the second half of the year, versus the first half.
Costs in the second half were planned to be lower than in the first half after the realignment of the Time Out Digital division. However, with the addition of the newly opened cities and acquisitions of licensing partners costs, are now expected to remain broadly flat as the benefits of the reorganisation are offset by additional operating expenses.
Exceptional costs
One-off exceptional costs include GBP1.7m of costs relating to the realignment of the business and GBP0.3million of costs in respect of the acquisitions of the businesses in Australia and Spain, the remainder related to the revaluation of the put option granted by the Group to acquire the remaining minority interest in Time Out Market in Lisbon. One-off exceptional costs in 2016 included GBP0.9m of IPO advisory costs not directly related to the raising of equity finance, GBP0.4m of employee termination costs and GBP0.1m of legal fees related to acquisitions.
Operating loss
The operating loss for the period was GBP15.6m (2016: GBP7.3m, reported basis) including depreciation of GBP0.5m (2016: GBP0.2m) and amortisation of intangible assets of GBP2.2m (2016: GBP1.3m).
The amortisation of intangible assets included GBP1.1m (2016: GBP0.4m) relating to acquired intangible assets. Other intangible asset amortisation, primarily amortisation of software both acquired and internally developed, was GBP1.1m (2016: GBP0.9m).
Net finance costs
Net finance costs, mainly comprising interest on financing, decreased by GBP0.8m to GBP0.3m (2016: GBP1.1m). This is a result of a significant reduction in debt as a result of the IPO. Included within financing costs for 2017 is GBP0.2 million losses relating to the revaluation of currency accounts held in UK companies as sterling strengthened at the end of the period.
Foreign exchange
The revenues and costs of Group entities reporting in US dollars have been consolidated in these financial statements at an average exchange rate of $1.26 (2016: $1.43). The operations reporting in euros have been consolidated at a rate of EUR1.16 (2016: EUR1.28).
Associates
The Group has a 37.8% shareholding in Flypay, a mobile technology platform providing solutions for ordering and payment within the hospitality sector. The shareholding is accounted for as an associate and the Group's share of Flypay's loss for the period since acquisition is included as 'Share of associate's loss' in the income statement.

The cash used in operations before exceptional costs was GBP11.1m (2016: GBP6.1m) which included a net working capital outflow of GBP1.8m (2016: GBP1.7m). Working capital as expected has expanded after the low point of year end as activity increases, an expansion that is expected to reverse in the second half.

Acquisitions and business combinations
The Group undertook one business combination in the period, acquiring the ordinary share capital of Print & Digital Publishing Pty Limited ("TO Australia") for shares. The acquisition was completed on 2 June 2017 and the amounts included in the balance sheets as at 30 June are management estimates of fair value.
Post balance sheet events
On 14 August 2017, the Group acquired the entire issued share capital of 80 Mes Publicacions, S.L., a Spanish company which previously was a franchisee of the Group.
Outlook
Trading is in line with the Board's expectations with revenue anticipated to be weighted towards the second half of the year in line with previous years, with an improvement in Group operating margin following the global realignment of the Time Out Digital business.
The Group remains excited by the continued implementation of its strategy to roll out Time Out Market; it has a well-developed pipeline, and continues to explore additional sites globally. In Time Out Digital, we anticipate that the strategic investment in and re-alignment of the business will provide further opportunities to drive growth in this division in a cost effective and efficient manner.

The unaudited interim consolidated financial information for the six months ended 30 June 2017 has been prepared following the recognition and measurement principles of IFRS as adopted by the European Union and in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 Interim Financial Reporting ('IAS 34'). The interim consolidated financial information does not include all the information and disclosures required in the annual financial information, and should be read in conjunction with the audited statutory financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2016.

7. Taxation
The taxation credit for the six months ended 30 June 2017 comprises GBP238k of deferred tax related to the acquisition of intangible assets in the US and Europe (30 June 2016: GBP67k; 31 December 2016: GBP246k) and GBP24k of current tax (30 June 2016: GBP2k; 31 December 2016: GBP42k tax charge).
8. Loss per share
Basic loss per share is calculated by dividing the loss attributable to shareholders by the weighted average number of shares during the period.
For diluted loss per share, the weighted average number of shares in issue is adjusted to assume conversion for all dilutive potential shares. All potential ordinary shares including options and deferred shares are antidilutive as they would decrease the loss per share, and are therefore not considered, therefore diluted loss per share is equal to basic loss per share.

9. Business combinations
a) 2016 acquisition of Hall Street (prior year)
On 1 March 2016, the Group acquired the trade and assets of Hall Street Barcelona, SL, a Spanish-based e-commerce business specialising in geo-mapping technology, for cash consideration of GBP294k and 211 ordinary shares of GBP1 each.
As a result of this acquisition, the Group will be able to integrate the geo-mapping technology into its existing platform, enabling it to increase functionality in the travel and leisure markets.
The provisional fair value of the assets and liabilities acquired was GBP4k of property, plant and equipment and GBP4k of other payables, resulting in goodwill recognised equal to the consideration paid of GBP294k. The goodwill represents the value of the acquired assembled workforce and is not deductible for tax purposes.
b) 2016 acquisition of Time Out Market Limited (prior year)
On 14 June 2016, the Group acquired the entire issued preference share capital and an additional 76.6% of the total ordinary share capital of Time Out Market Limited. The Group had previously acquired 8.5% of the ordinary share capital of the acquiree and hence now owns 85% of the voting equity interests. The Group issued 6,353,281 ordinary shares as consideration, with a total fair value of GBP9,530k.
Time Out Market Limited owned 75.1% of MC-Mercados da Capital, LDA, the operator of the Lisbon Time Out market. As a result of the acquisition, the Group intends to expand the Time Out Market concept internationally while capitalising on synergies between the existing Time Out segments and the market concept which has already proved to be successful in Lisbon. Post-acquisition, Time Out Market has entered into agreements for locations in London, Miami and Porto pending planning permissions.
The following table summarises the consideration paid for the acquisition of Time Out Market Limited, the fair value of assets acquired, liabilities assumed and the non-controlling interest at the acquisition date. The goodwill arising from the acquisition is attributable to the team and plans to expand the concept internationally.

--------
Acquired intangible assets comprise of a concession granted by the Municipality of Lisbon to occupy and fully operate an area within the Mercado da Ribeira in Lisbon as well as existing customer relationships net of the associated deferred tax liability.
The non-controlling interest, representing shares held by third parties in respect of the Lisbon business and a management shareholding in Time Out Market, is measured using the proportionate share method. On 6 July 2016, Time Out Market Limited acquired a further 20.2% shareholding in MC-Mercados da Capital, LDA, the operator of the Lisbon Time Out Market, in cash taking their direct shareholding to 95.3% and the Group's indirect shareholding to 81%. Cash consideration of GBP1.4m was paid. In March 2017, Time Out Market Limited acquired a further 1% shareholding in the same company for cash consideration of GBP195k.
The fair value of the previously held equity interest in the acquiree is equal to the original cost of GBP2, as a result there is no gain or loss recognised on the acquisition of the additional ordinary share capital.
c) 2016 acquisition of Yplan (prior year)
On 20 October 2016, the Group acquired 100% of the issued ordinary share capital of Leanworks Limited ("YPlan"), a London-based "mobile-first" events discovery and booking platform, in consideration for the issue of 1,166,644 Ordinary Shares valued at GBP1,625k based off of a share price of GBP1.393 (being the average middle market price for the 30 days prior to completion). It also acquired 100% of the issued ordinary share capital of YPlan Inc, a dormant US subsidiary.
As a result of this acquisition, the Group intended to continue the investment in the technology and product to grow e-commerce and expand its team of engineers. The acquisition is in line with this strategy as it will provide the Group with an advanced e-commerce platform which will accelerate and scale its existing e-commerce business. The technology will further enable the Group to manage transactions between consumers and businesses in-house, improving the user experience. The acquisition also brought a talented product development and technology team, with the specific know-how to drive bookings and optimise the conversion rate of Time Out's audience.
A further issuance of ordinary shares with a fixed value of up to GBP782k relating to the acquisition is payable in October 2017 subject to no warranty claims being made under the sale and purchase agreement. Shares issued as deferred consideration will be calculated with reference to prevailing share price.
The final fair value of assets and liability acquired in the acquisition is as follows:
GBP'000
--------
Intangible assets - e-commerce
platform 2,227
Property, plant and equipment 47
Trade and other receivables 614
Cash and cash equivalents 681
Trade and other payables (1,409)
Deferred tax liability (401)
Net assets acquired 1,759
Goodwill 648
Consideration paid 1,625
Deferred consideration 782
Total consideration 2,407
--------
The intangible asset shown is the internally generated platform. Goodwill is considered to be represented by the assembled workforce.
d) 2017 acquisition of TO Australia
On 2 June 2017, the Group acquired 100% of the issued ordinary share capital of Print & Digital Publishing Pty Limited ("TO Australia"), a company which was an existing franchisee of the Group, for the issue of 1,656,930 Ordinary Shares valued at GBP2,212k based on a share price of GBP1.335.
As a result of this acquisition, the Group continues its global expansion program, allowing further growth and monetisation opportunities across e-commerce, advertising and Premium Profiles. The company already has considerable brand awareness in the Sydney, Melbourne, Perth, Adelaide and Brisbane markets with a well-established digital portfolio.
The amounts recognised in the financial statements have been determined provisionally. The provisional fair value of the assets and liabilities acquired are as follows:
GBP'000
--------
Property, plant and equipment 8
Trade and other receivables 201
Cash and cash equivalents 37
Trade and other payables (485)
Net liabilities acquired (239)
Consideration paid 2,212
Total consideration 2,212
Goodwill 2,451
--------
Revenue of GBP277k and operating profit of GBP66k since the acquisition date have been included in the consolidated income statement. If the business combination had occurred at the beginning of the year the revenue contribution to the Group for the year would have been GBP1,434k and the operating loss contribution to the Group for the year would have been GBP222k.

14. Financial Instruments
Fair values
The table below illustrates the fair values of all financial assets and liabilities held by the Group.
Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. They are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method and the carrying value in all cases approximates to the fair value.
The Group's financial liability for the option over the non-controlling interest of MC-Mercados da Capital, LDA and Time Out Market Porto is measured at fair value through profit or loss. The initial recognition, as part of the acquisition of Time Out Market Limited, was at fair value and subsequent changes in fair value are charged to the Income Statement. Sponsorship loans held in MC - Mercados da Capital, LDA are also measured at fair value.
All other liabilities, including loans and trade and other payables are held at amortised cost. After initial fair value recognition, these instruments are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method. The carrying value of these liabilities approximates to the fair value.
