CONDENSED NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2025

(in thousands, except share and per share data)

1. General

Basis of Presentation - The unaudited consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and June 27, 2024 have been prepared by the Company. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the unaudited interim financial information at June 30, 2025, and for all periods presented, have been made. The results of operations during the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for the entire year or other interim periods. However, the unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 26, 2024.

Beginning on December 27, 2024, the Company’s fiscal year changed from a 52- or 53-week fiscal year ending on the last Thursday in December of each year to a fiscal year ending on December 31 of each year. Accordingly, effective for its fiscal year ending December 31, 2025, the Company’s quarterly results will be for three month periods ending March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each year. In this quarterly report, the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 refer to the periods April 1, 2025 through June 30, 2025 and December 27, 2024 through June 30, 2025, respectively, and the three and six months ended June 27, 2024 refer to the periods March 29, 2024 through June 27, 2024 and December 29, 2023 through June 27, 2024, respectively.

Accounting Policies - Refer to the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements (including footnotes) for the fiscal year ended December 26, 2024, contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for such year, for a description of the Company’s accounting policies.

Depreciation and Amortization - Depreciation and amortization of property and equipment are provided using the straight-line method over the shorter of the estimated useful lives of the assets or any related lease terms. Depreciation expense totaled $17,597 and $35,428, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, and $16,701 and $32,715, respectively, for the three and six months ended ended June 27, 2024.

Assets Held for Sale – Long-lived assets that are expected to be sold within the next 12 months and meet the other relevant held-for-sale criteria are classified as assets held for sale and included within current assets on the consolidated balance sheet. Assets held for sale are measured at the lower of their carrying value or their fair value less costs to sell the asset.

Long-Lived Assets – The Company periodically considers whether indicators of impairment of long-lived assets held for use are present. This includes quantitative and qualitative factors, including evaluating the historical actual operating performance of the long-lived assets and assessing the potential impact of recent events and transactions impacting the long-lived assets. If such indicators are present, the Company determines if the long-lived assets are recoverable by assessing whether the sum of the estimated undiscounted future cash flows attributable to such assets is less than their carrying amounts. If the long-lived assets are not recoverable, the Company recognizes any impairment losses based on the excess of the carrying amount of the assets over their fair value.

During the three months ended June 27, 2024, the Company determined that indicators of impairment were present at one asset group for a leased theatre location in which the Company made the decision to close during the second quarter of fiscal 2024. As such, the Company evaluated the fair value of these assets, consisting primarily of land improvements, leasehold improvements, building, furniture, fixtures and equipment, and operating lease right-of-use assets less lease obligations, and determined that the fair value, measured using Level 3 pricing inputs (using estimated discounted cash flows over the life of the primary asset), was less than their carrying values and recorded a $472 impairment loss, reducing certain property and equipment and certain operating lease net obligations. The remaining net book value of the impaired assets as of the date of the asset write-down (June 27, 2024) was $0. There were no indicators of impairment identified during the six months ended June 30, 2025.

Goodwill – The Company reviews goodwill for impairment annually or more frequently if certain indicators arise. The Company performs its annual impairment test on the first day of the fiscal fourth quarter. There were no indicators of impairment identified during the six months ended June 30, 2025 or June 27, 2024.

Earnings (Loss) Per Share - Net earnings (loss) per share (EPS) of Common Stock and Class B Common Stock is computed using the two class method. Basic net earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net earnings (loss) by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net earnings (loss) by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding, adjusted for the effect of dilutive stock options, restricted stock units, performance stock units and convertible debt instruments using the if-converted method. Convertible Class B Common Stock and convertible debt instruments are reflected on an if-converted basis when dilutive to Common Stock. The computation of the diluted net earnings (loss) per share of Common Stock assumes the conversion of Class B Common Stock in periods that have net earnings since it would be dilutive to Common Stock earnings per share, while the diluted net earnings (loss) per share of Class B Common Stock does not assume the conversion of those shares.

Holders of Common Stock are entitled to cash dividends per share equal to 110% of all dividends declared and paid on each share of Class B Common Stock. As such, the undistributed earnings (losses) for each period are allocated based on the proportionate share of entitled cash dividends.

The following table illustrates the computation of Common Stock basic and diluted net earnings (loss) per share, provides a reconciliation of the number of weighted-average basic and diluted shares outstanding, when applicable, and provides the weighted-average number of anti-dilutive shares excluded from the computation of diluted weighted-average shares outstanding:


	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended

Restricted stock units	—		50		72		50
Performance stock units	238		143		213		143
Convertible senior notes	—		6,719		—		8,009
Total	2,452		10,058		2,114		11,136

For the periods when the Company reports a net loss, common stock equivalents, restricted stock units, performance stock units, and shares related to the convertible senior notes are excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share as their inclusion would have an anti-dilutive effect. Performance stock units are considered anti-dilutive if the performance targets upon which the issuance of the shares are contingent have not been achieved and the respective performance period has not been completed as of the end of the current period. Shares related to the convertible senior notes were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share in periods when the effect would have been anti-dilutive using the if-converted method.

Shareholders’ Equity - Activity impacting total shareholders’ equity for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and June 27, 2024 was as follows:

Fair Value Measurements - Certain financial assets and liabilities are recorded at fair value in the consolidated financial statements. Some are measured on a recurring basis while others are measured on a non-recurring basis. Financial assets and liabilities measured on a recurring basis are those that are adjusted to fair value each time a financial statement is prepared. Financial assets and liabilities measured on a non-recurring basis are those that are adjusted to fair value when a significant event occurs. A fair value measurement assumes that a transaction to sell an asset or transfer a liability occurs in the principal market for the asset or liability or, in the absence of a principal market, the most advantageous market for the asset or liability.

The Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value are classified in one of the following categories:

Level 1 - Assets or liabilities for which fair value is based on quoted prices in active markets for identical instruments as of the reporting date. At June 30, 2025 and December 26, 2024, the Company’s $0 and $8,142, respectively, of debt and equity securities classified as trading were valued using Level 1 pricing inputs and were included in other current assets. At June 30, 2025 and December 26, 2024, the Company had $0 and $19,002, respectively, of investments in money market funds which were valued using Level 1 pricing inputs and were included in cash and cash equivalents.

Level 2 - Assets or liabilities for which fair value is based on pricing inputs that were either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date. At each of June 30, 2025 and December 26, 2024, none of the Company’s recorded assets or liabilities were measured using Level 2 pricing inputs.

Level 3 - Assets or liabilities for which fair value is based on valuation models with significant unobservable pricing inputs and which result in the use of management estimates. At each of June 30, 2025 and December 26, 2024, none of the Company’s recorded assets or liabilities that are measured on a recurring basis at fair market value were valued using Level 3 pricing inputs. Assets that are measured on a non-recurring basis are discussed above under Long-Lived Assets.

The carrying value of the Company’s financial instruments (including cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable) approximates fair value. The fair value of the Company’s $160,000 of senior notes, valued using Level 2 pricing inputs, is approximately $164,119 at June 30, 2025, determined based upon discounted cash flows using current market interest rates for financial instruments with a similar average remaining life. The carrying amounts of the Company’s remaining long-term debt approximate their fair values, determined using current rates for similar instruments, or Level 2 pricing inputs.

Defined Benefit Plan - The components of the net periodic pension cost of the Company’s unfunded nonqualified, defined-benefit plan are as follows:


	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended
	June 30, 2025		June 27, 2024		June 30, 2025		June 27, 2024

Service cost	$	50	$	62	$	100	$	124
Interest cost	463		445		927		889
Net amortization of prior service cost and actuarial loss	(5)		(16)		(11)		(32)
Net periodic pension cost	$	508	$	491	$	1,016	$	981

Service cost is included in Administrative expense while all other components are recorded within Other expense outside of operating income in the consolidated statements of operations.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements - In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740: Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (ASU No. 2023-09). ASU No. 2023-09 requires on an annual basis specific category disclosures in the rate reconciliation, additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold within the rate reconciliation, and additional disclosures related to income taxes paid. ASU No. 2023-09 is effective for the Company in fiscal 2025 and must be applied prospectively with retrospective application permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact that ASU No. 2023-09 will have on its consolidated financial statement disclosures.

On November 4, 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (DISE), which requires disaggregated disclosure of income statement expenses for public business entities. ASU No. 2024-03 does not change the expense captions an entity presents on the face of the income statement; rather, it requires disaggregation of certain expense captions into specified categories in disclosures within the footnotes to the financial statements. ASU No. 2024-03 is effective for the Company in fiscal 2027. The Company is evaluating the effect the guidance will have on its consolidated financial statement disclosures.

In fiscal 2024, the Company adopted ASU No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures (ASU No. 2023-07), which requires disclosure of incremental segment information on an annual and interim basis. The annual requirements of ASU No. 2023-07 were included in the Company’s fiscal 2024 Annual Report Business Segment footnote (Note 13) and the interim requirements of ASU No. 2023-07 are included in Note 7 of this quarterly report. The adoption of the new standard did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

At June 30, 2025, there were borrowings of $21,000 outstanding on the revolving credit facility, which when borrowed, bear interest at the secured overnight financing rate (SOFR) plus a margin (as discussed further below), approximately 6.07% at June 30, 2025. Availability under the $225,000 revolving credit facility was $199,165 as of June 30, 2025 after taking into consideration outstanding letters of credit that reduce revolver availability.

SOFR plus a credit spread adjustment of 0.10%), subject to a 1% floor, plus a specified margin based upon the Company’s net leverage ratio as of the most recent determination date. The revolving credit facility also requires an annual facility fee equal to 0.175% to 0.275% of the total revolving commitments depending on the Company’s consolidated net leverage ratio.

The Credit Agreement includes, among other restrictions and covenants applicable to the Company, a requirement that the Company’s consolidated net leverage ratio not exceed 3.50:1.00, provided that, with some limitations, such ratio may be increased to 4.00:1:00 for the full fiscal quarter in which a material acquisition (in which aggregate consideration equals or exceeds $30,000) is consummated and the three fiscal quarters immediately thereafter, and a requirement that the Company’s interest coverage ratio at the end of any fiscal quarter not be less than 3.00:1.00.

In connection with the Credit Agreement: (i) the Company has pledged, subject to certain exceptions, security interests and liens in and on (a) substantially all of its respective personal property assets and (b) certain of its respective real property assets, in each case, to secure the Credit Agreement and related obligations; and (ii) certain of the Company’s subsidiaries have guaranteed the Company’s obligations under the Credit Agreement.

The Credit Agreement contains customary events of default. If an event of default under the Credit Agreement occurs and is continuing, then, among other things, the lenders may declare any outstanding obligations under the Credit Agreement to be immediately due and payable and exercise rights and remedies against the pledged collateral.

Note Purchase Agreements

At June 30, 2025, the Company’s $160,000 of senior notes consisted of two Note Purchase Agreements and one Master Note Purchase Agreement (collectively the “Senior Notes Agreements”) maturing in 2025 through 2034, which require annual principal payments in varying installments and bear interest payable semi-annually at fixed rates ranging from 4.02% to 7.02%. The weighted average fixed rate of the $160,000 senior notes was 5.94% as of June 30, 2025.

3. Leases

The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. The Company evaluates each lease for classification as either a finance lease or an operating lease according to Accounting Standards Codification No. 842, Leases. The Company performs this evaluation at the inception of the lease and when a modification is made to a lease. The Company leases real estate and equipment with lease terms of one year to 45 years, some of which include options to extend and/or terminate the lease.

The majority of the Company’s lease agreements include fixed rental payments. For those leases with variable payments based on increases in an index subsequent to lease commencement, such payments are recognized as variable lease expense as they occur. Variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or rate, including those that depend on the Company’s performance or use of the underlying asset, are also expensed as incurred. Lease expense for operating lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

5. Income Taxes

The Company’s effective income tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 was 27.3% and 32.7%, respectively, and was (39.4)% and 4.9% for the three and six months ended June 27, 2024, respectively. The fiscal 2024 first half effective income tax rate was negatively impacted by a nondeductible debt conversion expense resulting from the Convertible Notes Repurchases and a $1,085 reduction in deferred tax assets resulting from the related termination of the Capped Call Transactions and excess compensation subject to deduction limitations.

On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (the Act) was signed into law, introducing significant U.S. tax changes. Key provisions that may impact the Company are bonus depreciation and interest deductibility. The Company is currently evaluating the Act’s potential impact on is Consolidated Financial Statements and will update its assessment as further guidance becomes available.

6. Joint Venture Transactions

In March 2024, the Company formed a joint venture with Hempel Real Estate (“Hempel”) and Robinson Park (“RP”) to acquire the Loews Minneapolis Hotel, a 251 guest room and suite full-service lifestyle hotel located in downtown Minneapolis, Minnesota. The acquired hotel was rebranded as The Lofton Hotel (“Lofton”) under the Tapestry Collection by Hilton flag. The Company invested $5,620 for a 33.3% equity interest in the Lofton joint venture and entered into a management agreement for the hotel. Subsequent to its initial investment in the joint venture, the Company sold an 8.6% interest to a minority investor for $1,500, reducing its equity interest in the Lofton joint venture to 24.7%. The Company accounts for its investment in the Lofton joint venture on the equity method.

A wholly-owned subsidiary of the Lofton joint venture entity, as the borrower, financed the acquisition of and future improvements to the hotel with a mortgage loan. In connection with this mortgage loan, the Company provided an environmental indemnity and a several payment guaranty that provides that the lender can recover losses from the Company, a principal in Hempel, and a principal in RP for certain events of default of the borrower up to $6,200 for the Company. Under the terms of a cross-indemnity agreement among the guarantors, the other two guarantors have fully indemnified the Company under the guarantees for any losses in excess of its proportionate liability under the several payment guaranty and environmental indemnity.

7. Business Segment Information

The Company’s primary operations are reported in the following two business segments: movie theatres and hotels and resorts. The Marcus Corporation’s chief operating decision maker (CODM) is the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. The measure of segment profit and loss the CODM uses to evaluate performance is operating income of each segment. The CODM uses this measure to evaluate trends and assess segment operating performance as compared to budget, historical periods, the industries each segment operates in and their competition in order to determine how to allocate resources to each segment. The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

General

For fiscal 2024 and prior periods, we reported our consolidated and individual segment results of operations on a 52- or 53-week fiscal year ending on the last Thursday in December, dividing our fiscal year into three 13-week quarters and a final quarter consisting of 13 or 14 weeks. Fiscal 2024 was a 52-week year with 364 operating days, beginning on December 29, 2023 and ending on December 26, 2024.

Beginning on December 27, 2024, our fiscal year changed from a 52- or 53-week fiscal year ending on the last Thursday in December of each year to a fiscal year ending on December 31 of each year. Accordingly, effective for our fiscal year ending December 31, 2025, our quarterly results will be for three month periods ending March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each year. Fiscal 2025 is a 370 operating day year beginning on December 27, 2024 and ending on December 31, 2025 (comprised of five operating days between December 27-31, 2024, plus 365 operating days in calendar year 2025).

Table of Contents

The second quarter of fiscal 2025 consisted of the three month period beginning on April 1, 2025 and ended on June 30, 2025 and included the same number of operating days compared to the prior year quarter. The second quarter of fiscal 2024 consisted of the three month period beginning March 29, 2024 and ended on June 27, 2024. The first half of fiscal 2025 consisted of the six month period beginning on December 27, 2024 and ended on June 30, 2025 and included four additional operating days compared to the prior year period. The first half of fiscal 2024 consisted of the six month period beginning on December 29, 2023 and ended on June 27, 2024.

Our primary operations are reported in the following two business segments: movie theatres and hotels and resorts. Within this MD&A, amounts for totals, subtotals, and variances may not recalculate exactly within tables due to rounding as they are calculated using the unrounded numbers.

Overall Results

The following table sets forth revenues, operating income (loss), other income (expense), net earnings (loss) and net earnings (loss) per diluted common share for the second quarter and first half of fiscal 2025 and fiscal 2024 (in millions, except for per share and variance percentage data):


	Second Quarter								First Half
					Variance								Variance
	F2025		F2024		Amt.		Pct.		F2025		F2024		Amt.		Pct.
Revenues	$	206.0	$	176.0	$	30.0	17.0	%	$	354.8	$	314.6	$	40.2	12.8	%
Operating income (loss)	13.0		2.2		10.8		481.4	%	(7.4)		(14.4)		7.0		48.7	%
Other income (expense)	(2.9)		(16.7)		13.8		82.4	%	(6.7)		(19.3)		12.6		65.3	%
Net earnings (loss)	$	7.3	$	(20.2)	$	27.5	136.2	%	$	(9.5)	$	(32.1)	$	22.6	70.4	%
Net earnings (loss) per common share - diluted	$	0.23	$	(0.64)	$	0.87	135.9	%	$	(0.31)	$	(1.03)	$	0.72	69.9	%

Revenues increased and operating income (loss), net earnings (loss), and net earnings (loss) per diluted common share improved during the second quarter and first half of fiscal 2025 compared to the second quarter and first half of fiscal 2024 primarily due to increased revenues from our theatre division. Hotels and resorts division revenues during the second quarter of fiscal 2025 remained consistent with the second quarter of fiscal 2024, and increased during the first half of fiscal 2025 compared to the first half of fiscal 2024. Revenues in the first half of fiscal 2025 were favorably impacted by four additional operating days compared to the first half of fiscal 2024, which included two additional days during the week between the Christmas and New Year’s holidays and two additional days at the end of March 2025. The four additional operating days (which occurred during the fiscal 2025 first quarter) favorably impacted revenues by approximately $9.2 million.

Operating income during the second quarter of fiscal 2025 increased $10.8 million primarily due to increased revenues in our Theatre division, and was unfavorably impacted by increased corporate expenses and an increase in depreciation expense of $0.9 million compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2024. Operating loss during the first half of fiscal 2025 improved $7.0 million compared to the first half of fiscal 2024 due to increased revenues in both divisions, and was negatively impacted by increased corporate expenses and increased depreciation expense of $2.7 million over the prior year period.

Corporate expenses during the second quarter of fiscal 2025 increased $0.2 million compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2024 due to increases in depreciation expense, long-term incentive compensation expenses, professional fees, and personnel and benefits cost inflation, partially offset by a favorable $1.0 million decrease in non-cash stock compensation expense. Corporate expenses during the first half of fiscal 2025 increased $2.5 million compared to the first half of fiscal 2024 due to increases in depreciation, long-term incentive compensation expenses, professional fees related to tax, audit and legal services, and personnel and benefits cost inflation.

In addition, operating income during the second quarter of fiscal 2025 was negatively impacted by a $0.2 million loss on disposition of property, equipment and other assets compared to an immaterial gain on disposition of property, equipment and other assets during the second quarter of fiscal 2024. Operating loss during the first half of fiscal 2025 was favorably impacted by a $1.2 million gain on disposition of property, equipment and other assets due largely to the sale of surplus land, compared to an immaterial gain during the first half of fiscal 2024.

Table of Contents

Other income (expense) and net earnings (loss) during the second quarter and first half of fiscal 2025 were impacted by an increase in interest expense, fluctuations in investment income, and a decrease in debt conversion expense compared with the second quarter and first half of fiscal 2024.

Our interest expense totaled $3.0 million and $5.8 million for the second quarter and first half of fiscal 2025, respectively, compared to $2.6 million and $5.1 million for the second quarter and first half of fiscal 2024, respectively. The increase in interest expense during the second quarter and first half of fiscal 2025 was primarily due to increased borrowings and higher interest rates, partially offset by a decrease in non-cash amortization of deferred financing costs. Changes in our borrowing levels due to variations in our operating results, capital expenditures, acquisition opportunities (or the lack thereof) and asset sale proceeds, among other items, may impact, either favorably or unfavorably, our actual reported interest expense in future periods, as may changes in short-term interest rates.

We recognized investment income of $0.4 million and $0.5 million during the second quarter and first half of fiscal 2025, respectively, compared to $0.2 million and $0.9 million during the second quarter and first half of fiscal 2024, respectively. Variations in investment income were due to changes in the value of marketable securities.

Other income (expense) and net earnings (loss) during the second quarter and first half of fiscal 2024 were negatively impacted by debt conversion expense of $13.9 million in connection with the $86.4 million aggregate principal amount of Convertible Notes Repurchases. See “2024 Convertible Senior Notes Repurchases” in the “Liquidity and Capital Resources” section of this MD&A for further discussion.

Net earnings (loss) and net earnings (loss) per diluted common share improved during the second quarter and first half of fiscal 2025 compared to the second quarter and first half of fiscal 2024 resulting from an improvement in operating income (loss), and a decrease in other expense, which was negatively impacted by debt conversion expense of $13.9 million during the prior year comparable periods.

We reported income tax expense of $2.7 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2025 compared to expense of $5.7 million during the second quarter of fiscal 2024. We reported income tax benefit of $4.6 million for the first half of fiscal 2025 compared to benefit of $1.7 million for the first half of fiscal 2024. Our fiscal 2025 first half effective income tax rate was 32.7% and was negatively impacted by excess compensation subject to deduction limitations. Our fiscal 2024 first half effective income tax rate was 4.9%, and was negatively impacted by nondeductible debt conversion expense resulting from the Convertible Notes Repurchases and a $1.1 million reduction in deferred tax assets resulting from the related termination of the Capped Call Transactions (combined negative impact of 7.5 percentage points) and excess compensation subject to deduction limitations. We anticipate that our effective income tax rate for fiscal 2025 may be in the 28% to 32% range, excluding any potential changes in federal or state income tax rates, valuation allowance adjustments or other one-time tax benefits. Our actual fiscal 2025 effective income tax rate may be different from our estimated quarterly rates depending upon actual facts and circumstances.

Theatres

The following table sets forth revenues, operating income (loss) and operating margin for our theatre division for the second quarter and first half of fiscal 2025 and fiscal 2024 (in millions, except for variance percentage and operating margin):


	Second Quarter										First Half

Our theatre division revenues and operating income (loss) improved with stronger performances from films resulting in increased attendance during the second quarter and first half of fiscal 2025, compared to the second quarter and first half of fiscal 2024. The quality and quantity of films released in second quarter and first half of fiscal 2025 improved compared to the second quarter and first half of fiscal 2024, which was negatively impacted by the content and supply chain disruption following the WGA and SAG-AFTRA labor strikes in 2023, resulting in a weaker slate of films in the first half of fiscal 2024. While the second quarters of fiscal 2025 and 2024 included a comparable number of operating days, the first half of

Table of Contents

fiscal 2025 benefited from four additional operating days compared to the first half of fiscal 2024 (which occurred during the fiscal 2025 first quarter).

The following table provides a further breakdown of the components of revenues for the theatre division for the second quarter and first half of fiscal 2025 and fiscal 2024 (in millions, except for variance percentage):


	Second Quarter								First Half
					Variance								Variance
	F2025		F2024		Amt.		Pct.		F2025		F2024		Amt.		Pct.
Admission revenues	$	62.3	$	48.6	$	13.8	28.3	%	$	103.3	$	89.2	$	14.1	15.8	%

According to data received from Comscore (a national box office reporting service for the theatre industry) and compiled by us to evaluate our fiscal 2025 second quarter and first half results, U.S. box office receipts increased 36.5% and 21.4% during our fiscal 2025 second quarter and first half, respectively, compared to our fiscal 2024 second quarter and first half, indicating that our increase in admission revenues for comparable theatres (excluding theatres closed during the past year) of 29.3% and 16.6% during the second quarter and first half of fiscal 2025 underperformed the industry by 7.2 and 4.8 percentage points, respectively. We believe our under performance in the second quarter and first half of fiscal 2025 was largely attributable to strategic pricing decisions made during the release of blockbuster films (we did not raise prices on most blockbuster films, unlike many national exhibitors) and our value promotions, resulting in lower average ticket price growth compared to other exhibitors. We believe our pricing strategies promote the affordability of moviegoing for customers at a variety of price points and will benefit our long-term theatre attendance. We believe our underperformance was also the result of an unfavorable film mix, with certain titles that were more appealing to audiences in other parts of the U.S. than in our Midwestern markets.

Additional data received and compiled by us from Comscore indicates our admission revenues at comparable theatres during the second quarter and first half of fiscal 2025 represented approximately 2.8% and 2.9%, respectively, of the total admission revenues in the U.S. (commonly referred to as market share in our industry), compared to 3.0% during the both the second quarter and first half of fiscal 2024. Our goal is to outperform the industry, but our ability to do so in any given quarter will likely be partially dependent upon film mix, pricing strategies, weather and the competitive landscape in our markets.

Total theatre attendance for our comparable theatres increased 26.7% during the second quarter of fiscal 2025 compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2024, which was attributable to a stronger film slate, higher box office performance from the top films, and an increase in the number of films released during second quarter of fiscal 2025 compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2024. During the second quarter of fiscal 2025, there were 32 wide-release films (films shown in over approximately 1,500 theatres in the U.S.) compared to 28 wide-release films during the second quarter of fiscal 2024. On a calendar quarter basis (April 1 through June 30), total theatre attendance for our comparable theatres increased 26.2% during the second quarter of 2025 compared to the second quarter of 2024.

Total theatre attendance for our comparable theatres increased 17.8% during the first half of fiscal 2025 compared to the first half of fiscal 2024, resulting primarily from the stronger film slate in second quarter of fiscal 2025. In addition, our total theatre attendance during the first half of fiscal 2025 benefited from an increased number of operating days during the first quarter of fiscal 2025 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2024 due to the transition of our fiscal quarter as described above. On a calendar quarter basis (January 1 through June 30), total theatre attendance for our comparable theatres increased 10.8% during first half of fiscal 2025 compared to the first half of fiscal 2024.

Our highest grossing films during the fiscal 2025 second quarter included A Minecraft Movie, Lilo & Stitch, Sinners, How to Train Your Dragon, and Thunderbolts*. Our top five films during our fiscal 2025 second quarter accounted for 59% of our total box office results, compared to 56% for the top five films during the second quarter of fiscal 2024, both expressed as a percentage of the total admission revenues for the relevant period. An increased concentration of blockbuster films

Table of Contents

during a given quarter often has the effect of increasing our film rental costs during the period, as generally the better a particular film performs, the greater the film rental cost tends to be as a percentage of box office receipts. As a result of a more concentrated film slate, our overall film cost as a percentage of admission revenues increased during the second quarter of fiscal 2025 compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year.

Our average ticket price increased 2.0% during the second quarter of fiscal 2025, compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2024. Our average ticket price during the second quarter of fiscal 2025 was favorably impacted by an increased percentage of ticket sales coming from premium large format (PLF) screens and a decrease in the percentage of attendance coming from Value Tuesday, partially offset by an unfavorable ticket mix with an increase in child attendance resulting from an increased number of family films during the quarter. Additionally, the average ticket price was negatively impacted by promotional pricing, including $7 Everyday Matinee for seniors and children that was introduced during the second quarter fiscal 2024. The overall change in average ticket price favorably impacted our admission revenues of our comparable theatres by $1.2 million during the second quarter of fiscal 2025 compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2024.

Our average ticket price decreased 1.1% during the first half of fiscal 2025, compared to the first half of fiscal 2024, resulting from the unfavorable impact of the $7 Everyday Matinee promotional offering for seniors and children and an unfavorable ticket mix with an increase in child attendance resulting from an increased number of family films, partially offset by the favorable impact of an increased percentage of ticket sales coming from premium large format (PLF) screens. The overall change in average ticket price unfavorably impacted our admission revenues of our comparable theatres by $1.1 million during the first half of fiscal 2025 compared to the first half of fiscal 2024.

Our average concession revenues per person increased by 3.1% and 3.4% during the second quarter and first half of fiscal 2025, respectively, compared to the second quarter and first half of fiscal 2024, resulting from an increase in movie merchandise sales and menu price increases. The overall increase in average concession revenues per person favorably impacted our concession revenues of our comparable theatres by $1.9 million and $3.2 million during the second quarter and first half of fiscal 2025, respectively, compared to the second quarter and first half of fiscal 2024.

Other revenues during the second quarter and first half of fiscal 2025 increased by $2.6 million and $4.2 million, respectively, compared to the second quarter and first half of fiscal 2024, due to the impact of increased attendance on internet surcharge ticketing fees and preshow and in-app advertising revenue. Late during the first quarter of fiscal 2024, we made changes to the criteria for waiving internet surcharge ticket fees for our MMR members, resulting in an increase in ticketing fees per person during most of the first quarter of fiscal 2025.

We ended the second quarter of fiscal 2025 with a total of 971 company-owned screens in 77 theatres and 14 managed screens at one theatre, compared to 981 company-owned screens in 78 theatres at the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2024. We made decisions to close underperforming theatres during fiscal 2024 and fiscal 2025, including one leased theatre in the second quarter of fiscal 2024, and one leased Movie Tavern theatre in the first quarter of fiscal 2025. During the third quarter of fiscal 2024, we added one theatre that we manage for the owner of a lifestyle shopping center.

Hotels and Resorts

The following table sets forth revenues, operating income (loss) and operating margin for our hotels and resorts division for the second quarter and first half of fiscal 2025 and fiscal 2024 (in millions, except for variance percentage and operating margin):


	Second Quarter										First Half
							Variance										Variance
	F2025			F2024			Amt.		Pct.		F2025			F2024			Amt.		Pct.
Revenues	$	74.3		$	74.5		$	(0.2)	(0.3)	%	$	135.6		$	131.7		$	3.9	3.0	%

Operating margin (% of revenues)	5.6		%	8.2		%					(1.4)		%	0.7		%

Hotels and resorts division revenues decreased 0.3% during the second quarter of fiscal 2025 compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2024. Division operating income during the second quarter of fiscal 2025 decreased $1.9 million compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2024, and was negatively impacted by an increase in depreciation expense of $1.7 million due to hotel renovations completed during fiscal 2024 as well as higher repair costs following a water damage event at one hotel. During the first half of fiscal 2025, hotels and resorts division revenues increased 3.0% and benefited from four

additional operating days compared to the first half of fiscal 2024 (which occurred during the first quarter of fiscal 2025). Operating income (loss) declined $2.8 million during the first half of fiscal 2025, compared to the first half of fiscal 2024, due to a $3.6 million increase in depreciation expense partially offset by the favorable impact of the increase in revenues.

The following table provides a further breakdown of the components of revenues for the hotels and resorts division for the second quarter and first half of fiscal 2025 and fiscal 2024 (in millions, except for variance percentage):


	Second Quarter								First Half
					Variance								Variance
	F2025		F2024		Amt.		Pct.		F2025		F2024		Amt.		Pct.
Room revenues	$	29.6	$	30.5	$	(0.9)	(2.8)	%	$	48.9	$	48.7	$	0.2	0.4	%
Food/beverage revenues	21.3		19.3		2.0		10.5	%	39.1		35.4		3.7		10.4	%
Other revenues	13.6		14.0		(0.4)		(2.6)	%	28.8		27.6		1.2		4.3	%
Total revenues before cost reimbursements	64.6		63.8		0.8		1.2	%	116.9		111.8		5.1		4.5	%
Cost reimbursements	9.7		10.7		(1.0)		(9.4)	%	18.7		19.9		(1.2)		(5.8)	%
Total revenues	$	74.3	$	74.5	$	(0.2)	(0.3)	%	$	135.6	$	131.7	$	3.9	3.0	%

Division total revenues before cost reimbursements increased 1.2% during the second quarter of fiscal 2025, compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2024, due largely to increased group demand contributing to growth in food and beverage revenues, partially offset by a decrease in rooms revenue which was negatively impacted by rooms out of service due to the renovation of the Hilton Milwaukee, as well as lower transient demand at some properties. Division total revenues before cost reimbursements increased 4.5% during the first half of fiscal 2025, compared to the first half of fiscal 2024, resulting primarily from an additional four operating days, growth in food and beverage revenues, as well as an increase in other revenues driven primarily by a group buyout of one condo hotel property during a portion of the first quarter, partially offset by the negative impact of the Hilton Milwaukee renovation.

The following table sets forth certain operating statistics for the second quarter and first half of fiscal 2025 and fiscal 2024, including our average occupancy percentage (number of occupied rooms as a percentage of available rooms), our average daily room rate, or ADR, and our total revenue per available room, or RevPAR, for comparable company-owned properties:


	Second Quarter										First Half
							Variance										Variance
	F2025			F2024			Amt.		Pct.		F2025			F2024			Amt.		Pct.
Occupancy pct.	67.3		%	72.7		%	(5.4) pts		(7.4)	%	58.6		%	63.2		%	(4.6) pts		(7.3)	%
ADR	$	196.35		$	187.03		$	9.32	5.0	%	$	181.34		$	171.36		$	9.98	5.8	%
RevPAR	$	132.07		$	136.03		$	(3.96)	(2.9)	%	$	106.22		$	108.30		$	(2.08)	(1.9)	%

Note: These operating statistics represent averages of our seven distinct comparable company-owned hotels and resorts, branded and unbranded, in different geographic markets with a wide range of individual hotel performance. The statistics are not necessarily representative of any particular hotel or resort.

RevPAR increased at four of our seven comparable company-owned properties during the second quarter of fiscal 2025 compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2024, driven primarily by increased average daily rates. Group business grew as a percentage of our mix of business, representing approximately 47.1% of our total rooms revenue in the second quarter of fiscal 2025, compared to approximately 44.6% during the second quarter of fiscal 2024. Non-group pricing increased in some of our major markets during the second quarter of fiscal 2025, primarily due to increased rate compression at our other Milwaukee market hotels as a result of the renovation at the Hilton Milwaukee.

According to data received from Smith Travel Research and compiled by us in order to evaluate our fiscal 2025 second quarter and first half results, comparable “upper upscale” hotels—hotels identified as our industry— throughout the United States experienced flat RevPAR during our fiscal 2025 second quarter compared to our fiscal 2024 second quarter, leading us to believe we underperformed the industry during the fiscal 2025 second quarter by approximately 2.9 percentage points. During the first half of fiscal 2025, comparable “upper upscale” hotels experienced RevPAR growth of 1.3%, compared to the first half of fiscal 2024, leading us to believe we underperformed the industry during the first half of fiscal

Table of Contents

2025 by approximately 3.2 percentage points. We believe our underperformance during the second quarter and first half of fiscal 2025 resulted primarily from the unfavorable impact of the Hilton Milwaukee renovation and group displacement as a result of the reduced capacity. We estimate that the Hilton Milwaukee renovation negatively impacted our RevPAR growth by approximately 3.7 and 3.6 percentage points during the fiscal 2025 second quarter and first half, respectively.

Data received from Smith Travel Research for our various “competitive sets”—hotels identified in our specific markets that we deem to be competitors to our hotels—indicates that these hotels experienced an increase in RevPAR of 2.9% during our fiscal 2025 second quarter, again compared to our fiscal 2024 second quarter. Therefore, we underperformed our competitive sets during the second quarter of fiscal 2025 by approximately 5.8 percentage points. During the first half of fiscal 2025, hotels in our competitive sets experienced RevPAR growth of 3.6%, indicating that we underperformed our competitive set hotels by 5.5 percentage points. We believe the underperformance to our competitive sets during the second quarter and first half of fiscal 2025 resulted primarily from group displacement at the Hilton Milwaukee while under renovation which we believe unfavorably impacted our RevPAR growth while favorably impacting competitive hotels RevPAR growth. After adjusting for the estimated impact of the Hilton Milwaukee renovation, we believe our hotels underperformed their competitive sets during the second quarter and first half of fiscal 2025 by approximately 1.3 and 1.0 percentage points, respectively. We believe this underperformance was driven largely by new hotel room supply within one of our markets.

We generally expect our revenue trends to track or exceed the overall industry trends for our segment of the industry, particularly in our respective markets. Hotel revenues have historically tracked very closely with traditional macroeconomic statistics, such as the Gross Domestic Product. The U.S. economic outlook has moved into a period of heightened uncertainty. In the near term, we expect leisure travel demand to soften, and we expect our group business to remain stable. Leisure travel in our markets has a seasonal component, peaking in the summer months and slowing down as children return to school and the weather turns colder in our primarily Midwestern markets.

As of the date of this report, our group room revenue bookings for the remainder of fiscal 2025 - commonly referred to in the hotels and resorts industry as “group pace” - is running in-line with where we were at the same time last year, and is running approximately 11% ahead of where we were at the same time last year excluding bookings related to the July 2024 Republican National Convention. Group room revenue bookings for fiscal 2026 is running nearly 20% ahead of where we were at the same time in fiscal 2024 for fiscal 2025. Banquet and catering revenue pace for fiscal 2025 is running approximately 15% ahead of where we were at the same time last year, and fiscal 2026 is running approximately 20% ahead of where we were at the same time in fiscal 2024 for fiscal 2025.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA is a measure used by management and our board of directors to assess our financial performance and enterprise value. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA is a useful measure for us and investors, as it eliminates certain expenses that are not indicative of our core operating performance and facilitates a comparison of our core operating performance on a consistent basis from period to period. We also use Adjusted EBITDA as a basis to determine certain annual cash bonuses and long-term incentive awards, to supplement GAAP measures of performance to evaluate the effectiveness of our business strategies, to make budgeting decisions, and to compare our performance against that of other peer companies using similar measures. Adjusted EBITDA is also used by analysts, investors and other interested parties as a performance measure to evaluate industry competitors.

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure of our financial performance and should not be considered as an alternative to net earnings (loss) as a measure of financial performance, or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP. Additionally, Adjusted EBITDA is not intended to be a measure of liquidity or free cash flow for management’s discretionary use. Adjusted EBITDA has its limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP.

We define Adjusted EBITDA as net earnings (loss) attributable to The Marcus Corporation before investment income or loss, interest expense, other expense, gain or loss on disposition of property, equipment and other assets, impairment charges, equity earnings or losses from unconsolidated joint ventures, net earnings or losses attributable to noncontrolling interests, income taxes, depreciation and amortization and non-cash share-based compensation expense, adjusted to eliminate the impact of certain items that we do not consider indicative of our core operating performance. These further adjustments are itemized below. You are encouraged to evaluate these adjustments and the reasons we consider them appropriate for supplemental analysis. In evaluating Adjusted EBITDA, you should be aware that in the future we will incur expenses that are the same as or similar to some of the items eliminated in the adjustments made to determine

Table of Contents

Adjusted EBITDA, such as acquisition expenses, preopening expenses, accelerated depreciation, impairment charges and other adjustments. Our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed to imply that our future results will be unaffected by any such adjustments. Definitions and calculations of Adjusted EBITDA differ among companies in our industries, and therefore Adjusted EBITDA disclosed by us may not be comparable to the measures disclosed by other companies.

The following table sets forth Adjusted EBITDA by reportable operating segment for the second quarter and first halfof fiscal 2025 and fiscal 2024 (in millions, except for variance percentage):

Our theatre division Adjusted EBITDA increased during the second quarter of fiscal 2025 compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2024 due to increased revenues and increased operating leverage with the higher volumes, partially offset by increases in film costs, advertising costs, facility maintenance and other expenses. Our hotels and resorts division Adjusted EBITDA decreased during the second quarter of fiscal 2025 compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2024 and was negatively impacted by changes in revenue mix, with a decrease in higher margin rooms revenue offset by an increase in lower margin food and beverage revenue, as well as higher repair costs following a water damage event at one hotel and higher associate benefits costs. Adjusted EBITDA attributable to corporate items decreased during the second quarter of fiscal 2025 compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2024 due primarily to increased long-term incentive compensation expenses as well as personnel and benefits cost inflation, partially offset by a decrease in professional fees related to legal services.

During the first half of fiscal 2025, theatre division Adjusted EBITDA increased compared to the first half of fiscal 2024, due to higher revenue resulting from increased attendance and four additional operating days in the fiscal 2025 first quarter, as described above, partially offset by increased film costs and labor expenses. Our hotels and resorts Adjusted EBITDA increased during the first half of fiscal 2025 compared to the first half of fiscal 2024 due to higher revenue resulting from additional operating days and an increase in group business, partially offset by increased associate benefits costs and repair costs. Adjusted EBITDA attributable to corporate items decreased during the first half of fiscal 2025 compared to the first half of fiscal 2024 due primarily to increased long-term incentive compensation expenses, professional fees related to tax, audit, and legal services, and personnel and benefits cost inflation.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Liquidity

Our movie theatre and hotels and resorts businesses each generate significant and consistent daily amounts of cash, subject to previously-noted seasonality, because each segment’s revenue is derived predominantly from consumer cash purchases. We believe that these relatively consistent and predictable cash sources, as well as the availability of unused credit lines, would be adequate to support the ongoing operational liquidity needs of our businesses. However, our cash position may fluctuate from time-to-time based on seasonality of our businesses, the timing of interest payments on our debt as well as timing of payment of other operating expenses that are paid on an infrequent basis.

Maintaining and protecting a strong balance sheet has always been a core value of The Marcus Corporation during our 90-year history and our financial position remains strong. As of June 30, 2025, we had a cash balance of approximately $14.9 million, $199.2 million of availability under our $225 million revolving credit facility, our debt-to-capitalization ratio was 0.29, and our net leverage ratio was 1.61x net debt to Adjusted EBITDA. With our strong liquidity position combined with cash generated from operations, we believe we have sufficient liquidity to meet our obligations as they come due and to comply with our debt covenants for at least 12 months from the issuance date of the consolidated financial statements, as well as fund our longer-term capital requirements.

The following table sets forth our reconciliations of Net Debt and Net Leverage (Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA) (in millions, except leverage ratio):



	June 30, 2025		December 26, 2024
Long-term debt (GAAP measure) (1)	$	179.9	$	159.1

Net Debt	$	177.3	$	131.3
LTM Adjusted EBITDA (3)	110.2		102.4
Net Leverage (Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA)	1.61x		1.28x

(1)Represents total long-term debt, including the current portion of long-term debt.

(2)Represents total finance lease obligations, including the current portion of finance lease obligations.

(3)LTM Adjusted EBITDA is Adjusted EBITDA as reconciled and defined above for the last four fiscal quarters.

We believe Net Leverage is a useful measure, as it provides management and investors an indication of our indebtedness less unrestricted cash relative to our earnings performance.

Financial Condition

Net cash used in operating activities totaled $3.7 million during the first half of fiscal 2025, compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $20.9 million during the first half of fiscal 2024. The $24.6 million increase in net cash used in operating activities was primarily due to a $19.4 million unfavorable impact from the seasonal timing of payments of accounts payable, a $7.5 million increase in prepaid and other assets, a $4.8 million unfavorable impact from timing of accrued compensation payments and a $13.9 million non-cash debt conversion expense in the prior year that did not recur, partially offset by a $22.6 million increase in net earnings and increases in non-cash depreciation and amortization.

Table of Contents

Net cash used in investing activities during the first half of fiscal 2025 totaled $31.5 million, compared to net cash used in investing activities of $40.6 million during the first half of fiscal 2024. The decrease in net cash used in investing activities of $9.1 million was the result of a decrease in net contributions to hotel joint ventures in the prior year period that did not recur and $8.2 million in proceeds from the sale of trading securities during the first half of fiscal 2025 compared to $1.1 million in purchases of trading securities in the first half of fiscal 2024, partially offset by an increase of $4.6 million in capital expenditures. Total cash capital expenditures (including normal continuing capital maintenance and renovation projects) totaled $39.9 million during the first half of fiscal 2025 compared to $35.3 million during the first half of fiscal 2024. In fiscal 2024, we contributed $5.6 million for the purchase of joint venture interests in The Lofton Hotel, partially offset by a $1.5 million sale of joint venture interests in The Lofton Hotel to other minority investors.

Fiscal 2025 first half cash capital expenditures included approximately $10.4 million incurred in our theatre division, primarily related to normal maintenance capital projects. We incurred capital expenditures in our hotels and resorts division during the first half of fiscal 2025 of approximately $26.6 million, including costs related to guest room renovations at Hilton Milwaukee and normal maintenance capital projects. We incurred corporate capital expenditures during the first half of fiscal 2025 of approximately $2.9 million, which includes $1.2 million for the purchase of land acquired in a 1031 tax-deferred exchange for future development, and the final costs related to office construction for the relocation of our corporate and divisional headquarters that occurred during fiscal 2024.

Net cash provided by financing activities during the first half of fiscal 2025 totaled $7.4 million compared to net cash used in financing activities of $2.3 million during the first half of fiscal 2024. During the first half of fiscal 2025, we increased our borrowings under our revolving credit facility as needed to fund our cash needs and used excess cash to reduce our borrowings under our revolving credit facility. As short-term revolving credit facility borrowings became due, we replaced them as necessary with new short-term revolving credit facility borrowings. As a result, we added $105.0 million of new short-term revolving credit facility borrowings, and we made $84.0 million of repayments on short-term revolving credit facility borrowings during the first half of fiscal 2025 (net $21.0 million increase in borrowings on our credit facility). We ended the second quarter of fiscal 2025 with $21.0 million of outstanding borrowings under our revolving credit facility. During the first half of fiscal 2024, we increased our borrowings under our revolving credit facility as needed to fund our cash needs and used excess cash to reduce our borrowings under our revolving credit facility. As a result, we added $81.0 million of new short-term revolving credit facility borrowings, and we made $36.0 million of repayments on short-term revolving credit facility borrowings during the first half of fiscal 2024 (net $45.0 million increase in borrowings on our credit facility).

Principal payments on long-term debt were approximately $0.4 million during the first half of fiscal 2025 compared to payments of $0.7 million during the first half of fiscal 2024.

During the first half of fiscal 2024 we paid $46.5 million in cash for the Convertible Notes Repurchases (as defined below) and related transaction costs. We received $5.8 million in cash from the proportionate unwind of the Capped Call Transactions in connection with the Convertible Notes Repurchases during the first half of fiscal 2024. See “2024 Convertible Senior Notes Repurchases” for further discussion below.

Our debt-to-capitalization ratio (excluding our finance and operating lease obligations) was 0.29 at June 30, 2025, compared to 0.26 at December 26, 2024.

During the first half of fiscal 2025, we repurchased 0.4 million shares of our common stock for $7.1 million in the open market, compared to no share repurchases of our common stock in the open market during the first half of fiscal 2024. As of June 30, 2025, approximately 1.3 million shares remained available for repurchase under prior Board of Directors repurchase authorizations. Under these authorizations, we may repurchase shares of our common stock from time to time in the open market, pursuant to privately-negotiated transactions or otherwise, depending upon a number of factors, including prevailing market conditions.

Dividends paid during the first half of fiscal 2025 were $4.3 million. Dividends paid during the first half of fiscal 2024 were $4.4 million. We have the ability to declare quarterly dividend payments and/or repurchase shares of our common stock in the open market as we deem appropriate.

2024 Convertible Senior Notes Repurchases

During the second quarter of fiscal 2024, we entered into separate, privately negotiated purchase agreements (the “Purchase Agreements”) with certain holders of its Convertible Notes. Under the terms of the Purchase Agreements, the holders

agreed to exchange $86.4 million in aggregate principal amount of Convertible Notes for cash consideration of $101.1 million (or $87.9 million net of the cash we received in connection with the unwind of a portion of the Capped Call Transactions as discussed below) effected over two separate repurchase tranches (the “Convertible Notes Repurchases”). On May 8, 2024, we entered into the first repurchase transaction to retire $40.0 million of aggregate principal amount of Convertible Notes for $45.9 million in cash consideration plus accrued interest, with settlement occurring during the fiscal second quarter on June 14, 2024. On June 17, 2024, we entered into the second repurchase transaction to retire $46.4 million of aggregate principal amount of Convertible Notes for $55.2 million in cash consideration plus accrued interest, with settlement occurring during the fiscal third quarter on July 16, 2024.

In connection with the Convertible Notes Repurchases, we entered into unwind agreements with the Capped Call Counterparties to terminate a portion of the Capped Call Transactions equal to the notional amounts of the Convertible Notes Repurchases, and to receive aggregate cash of $13.2 million effected over two separate unwind tranches. On May 8, 2024, we entered into the first tranche of unwind agreements and received $5.8 million in cash consideration with settlement occurring during the fiscal second quarter on June 14, 2024. On June 17, 2024, we entered into the second tranche of unwind agreements and received $7.5 million in cash consideration at settlement occurring during the fiscal third quarter on July 16, 2024.

During the second quarter and first half of fiscal 2024, we incurred debt conversion expense of $13.9 million in connection with the Convertible Notes Repurchases. The unwind of the Capped Call Transactions resulted in a $12.9 million increase in capital in excess of par within shareholders’ equity during the second quarter and first half of fiscal 2024.

There were no significant changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by Rule 13a-15 of the Exchange Act that occurred during the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1A. Risk Factors

There have been no material changes from the risk factors disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 26, 2024, except for the addition of, and the revision to, the risk factors set forth below, respectively:

Tariffs that are implemented or merely threatened may increase the cost of commodities we purchase for use in our hotels, restaurants or theatres or the cost of production for films released in our theatres.

The federal government may threaten or implement tariffs on other countries that supply commodities we purchase for use in our hotels, restaurants or theatres or on countries in which films are produced or filmed. The tariffs themselves could have the impact of increasing the aggregate purchase cost of the same products, reducing the supply of available products or raise the cost of showing films in our theatres. Additionally, these tariffs may result in retaliation by the affected countries, leading to trade wars with an unpredictable result. We may not be able to offset increased cost through room rate, menu or ticket price increases, and even if we were to increase room rate, menu or ticket prices to cover some or all of the increased cost, such action could lead to decreased traffic to our hotels, restaurants or theatres which would negatively affect our financial results.

The lack of both the quantity and audience appeal of motion pictures may adversely affect our financial results.

The financial results of our movie theatre business and the motion picture industry in general are heavily dependent on the general audience appeal of available films, together with studio marketing, advertising and support campaigns, factors over which we have no control. The relative success of our movie theatre business will continue to be largely dependent upon the quantity and audience appeal of films made available by the movie studios and other producers. Poor performance of films, a disruption in the production of films due to events such as tariffs or threatened tariffs, a strike by actors, writers or directors, or a reduction in the marketing efforts of the film distributors to promote their films could have an adverse impact on our business and results of operations. Our industry experienced a significant reduction in the quantity of films available to exhibit in theatres in the years following the COVID-19 pandemic. The quantity of new film releases available for theatrical exhibition during fiscal 2023 and fiscal 2024 was negatively impacted by the shutdown of movie production during the WGA and SAG-AFTRA labor strikes that occurred during fiscal 2023. Studios may also determine that certain types of films will not be released for theatrical exhibition and will go straight to streaming services, further impacting the quantity of films available. Also, our quarterly results of operations are significantly dependent on the quantity and audience appeal of films that we exhibit during each quarter. As a result, our quarterly results may be unpredictable and somewhat volatile.
