Coppa Collective Rebrands and Expands Amid Mixed Financial Results

Coppa Collective plc, formerly parent of Coppa Club & Noci, acquires £11.25M pub portfolio. Revenue up 11.25% but net loss persists as group diversifies strategy.

The parent company of the Coppa Club and Noci restaurant chains has formally changed its name to Coppa Collective plc, a move coinciding with a strategic acquisition worth millions. Shareholders have unanimously endorsed the new direction, even as recent quarterly figures reveal a complex picture of robust revenue growth paired with ongoing net losses.

Shareholder Confidence and Quarterly Performance

At the Annual General Meeting held on March 19, investors demonstrated solid support for the leadership team. All proposed resolutions passed, including the re-election of directors and the authorization of potential share buybacks. This vote of confidence comes despite financial results for the fourth quarter of 2025 showing the company's current challenges. Group revenue advanced by 11.25% year-over-year to £27.72 million. However, the period concluded with a net loss of £494,000, underscoring the path ahead for the newly renamed entity.

A Multi-Million Pound Expansion into Pubs

Central to the group's refreshed strategy is the £11.25 million purchase of a portfolio from Grosvenor Pubs & Inns. This acquisition introduces four new venues, including the "Wild Thyme & Honey" in the Cotswolds, which will be rebranded under the umbrella "The Linwood Collection." The transaction was facilitated by a new £15 million credit facility from HSBC. These recently acquired pubs contributed approximately £10.5 million in annual revenue with an EBITDA of £1.5 million, offering a profitable and complementary addition to the existing portfolio.

Rebranding as a Multi-Format Operator

The official name change to Coppa Collective plc took effect on March 24, 2026. The company's shares now trade under the new ticker symbol COPC. This rebranding signals a deliberate shift from a restaurant operator to a diversified hospitality group. Management aims to build a broader and more resilient market presence by integrating the traditional pub assets of The Linwood Collection with its contemporary Coppa Club and Noci concepts. The strategy is designed to create a more stable financial foundation for the collective.
