Description

XP Factory’s (LON:XPF) interim results reveal a sharp contrast between two of the UK’s fastest-growing experiential leisure brands. Escape Hunt continues to outperform expectations with industry-defying growth and 40% EBITDA margins, while Boom Battle Bar is doubling down on quality over quantity, leveraging strategic site selection and margin improvements. CEO Richard Harpham outlines how the group is navigating a tough consumer environment with financial discipline and a bold, shareholder-focused roadmap that includes a potential share buyback.

XP Factory plc operates two leading UK experiential leisure brands: Escape Hunt, a premium escape room business, and Boom Battle Bar, a competitive socialising venue combining games, food, and drinks. The company focuses on profitable expansion and delivering strong returns on capital in a challenging market.#XPFactory #EscapeHunt #BoomBattleBar #UKLeisure #ExperientialRetail #RichardHarpham #UKInvesting #SmallCapStocks #ShareBuybacks #LeisureIndustry #ConsumerStocks
