British pub operator, Marston’s Plc, predicted on Thursday that winter months would be both uncertain and challenging, with 780 of its pubs remaining closed after the new coronavirus-induced lockdown in November, as it posted a yearly loss.
The Wolverhampton, the UK-based company, said the year’s underlying pretax loss ended October 3 was 22 million pounds ($29.35 million), compared with an underlying pretax profit of 95.1 million pounds last year.
