Marston’s PLC (LSE:MARS) has announced robust financial results for the fiscal year ending 27 September 2025, surpassing its recurring free cash flow goal of £50 million and achieving strong profit growth for the second consecutive year. The company’s performance was driven by its market-leading pub operating model, strategic refurbishments across its portfolio, and continued focus on operational efficiency.
Looking ahead, Marston’s plans to accelerate capital investment in FY2026 to sustain its growth momentum, further reduce debt, and enhance long-term shareholder returns. The company has also appointed Panmure Liberum as a joint corporate broker, a move aimed at expanding its investor reach and supporting ongoing strategic initiatives.
Marston’s outlook remains underpinned by solid cash flow generation and an attractive valuation, although profitability challenges and high leverage continue to weigh on financial performance. Technical indicators currently suggest a neutral trend, with potential for improvement as profitability strengthens.
