- Strong third quarter performance at both Pursuit and GES
- Pursuit completes tuck-in acquisition in Glacier National Park
- Sale of GES for $535 million is on track to close on December 31, 2024
Viad Corp (NYSE:VVI), a leading global provider of extraordinary experiences, including attractions, hospitality, exhibition services, and experiential marketing, today reported results for the 2024 third quarter.
Steve Moster, Viad's President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, "We delivered another quarter of strong operational and financial results at both Pursuit and GES. Outside of Jasper, Pursuit's revenue grew approximately 13% during the quarter from the significant demand for our unforgettable experiences. GES' outperformance was largely driven by successful execution at our major non-annual shows and disciplined cost management. We expect to deliver significant full year growth in consolidated adjusted EBITDA, and both businesses are positioned for continued success."
Moster continued, "We're also pleased to report that we recently completed the acquisition of a great tuck-in experience for our Glacier Park Collection and that we are on track to complete the transformative sale of GES by the end of the year. This transaction will establish Pursuit as a pure-play, high-growth and high-margin business with the financial flexibility and balance sheet capacity to accelerate its Refresh, Build, Buy growth strategy and capitalize on its substantial growth prospects in the hospitality and attractions space."

Third Quarter Results
-
Revenue of $455.7 million increased $89.8 million (24.5%) from the 2023 third quarter.
-
Pursuit revenue of $182.3 million decreased $4.7 million (-2.5%) year-over-year due to temporary closures and lower visitation caused by the Jasper wildfire, partially offset by growth across our other geographies.
- Excluding our Jasper properties, Pursuit revenue increased $17.2 million (13.1%).
- GES revenue of $273.4 million increased $94.5 million (52.8%) year-over-year primarily due to incremental revenue of about $104 million from the timing of major non-annual shows.
-
Pursuit revenue of $182.3 million decreased $4.7 million (-2.5%) year-over-year due to temporary closures and lower visitation caused by the Jasper wildfire, partially offset by growth across our other geographies.
-
Net income attributable to Viad of $48.6 million increased $7.3 million from the 2023 third quarter primarily due to stronger performance at GES, partially offset by asset impairment charges and GES transaction-related expenses.
- Adjusted net income* of $58.8 million increased $15.5 million year-over-year primarily due to improved results at GES.
-
Consolidated adjusted EBITDA* of $103.1 million increased $16.9 million from the 2023 third quarter.
- Pursuit adjusted EBITDA* of $86.3 million decreased $5.5 million year-over-year primarily due to lower revenue from the Jasper wildfire, combined with a year-over-year increase in certain general and operating costs.
- GES adjusted EBITDA of $20.2 million increased $22.2 million year-over-year primarily driven by higher revenue and significant margin expansion.
Cash Flow and Balance Sheet Highlights
- Our cash flow from operations was an inflow of about $110 million for the third quarter.
- Our capital expenditures for the third quarter totaled approximately $15 million, comprising $9.7 million for Pursuit (inclusive of about $3 million for growth projects) and $5.1 million for GES.
- Our debt payments (net) totaled $93.7 million for the third quarter.
- Our total liquidity was $228.8 million as of September 30, 2024, comprising cash and cash equivalents of $64.6 million and $164.3 million of capacity available on our revolving credit facility.
- Our debt was $398.2 million, and our net leverage ratio was 1.7x at the end of the third quarter.
Pursuit Acquisition
On November 6, 2024, Pursuit expanded its collection of accommodation and hospitality experiences within Glacier National Park with the acquisition of Eddie's Café & Mercantile, which includes food and beverage and retail offerings as well as newly constructed Apgar Lookout Retreat guest accommodations. Eddie's and the Apgar Lookout Retreat are located adjacent to Pursuit's existing 48 room Apgar Village Lodge near the picturesque shores of Lake McDonald on privately held land inside Glacier National Park.
Pursuit President David Barry commented, "Eddie's has a long and successful history operating in Apgar and we are very proud to continue its success as part of our Glacier Park Collection. Apgar Lookout Retreat's six high-end accommodation units are beautiful and a step above all of the other lodging experiences in the West Glacier area. This acquisition is a perfect complement to our existing guest rooms in Apgar Village and is well positioned to serve the approximately 1 million park visitors that come through Apgar as they explore Glacier National Park."
2024 Outlook
Based on our stronger than expected performance year-to-date in 2024 and favorable underlying demand trends we are seeing, we are revising our prior full year guidance ranges. We expect GES will achieve Adjusted EBITDA of $90 million to $95 million, up from previous expectations of $85 million to $95 million. Additionally, we have narrowed our range for Pursuit's Adjusted EBITDA to $87 million to $92 million.
Our guidance for Viad consolidated, Pursuit, and GES is below.

Forward-Looking Non-GAAP Measures
The company has not quantitatively reconciled its guidance for adjusted EBITDA to its respective most comparable GAAP financial measure because certain reconciling items that impact this metric, including provision for income taxes, interest expense, restructuring or impairment charges, transaction-related costs, and attraction start-up costs have not occurred, are out of the company's control, or cannot be reasonably predicted. Accordingly, reconciliations to the nearest GAAP financial measure are not available without unreasonable effort. Please note that the unavailable reconciling items could significantly impact the company's results as reported under GAAP.

VIAD CORP
TABLE ONE - NOTES TO QUARTERLY RESULTS (UNAUDITED)
(A) Corporate activities - The increase in corporate activities is primarily due to transaction-related costs including consulting, accounting, legal, and other costs incurred related to the pending sale of the GES business of approximately $4.3 million during the three months ended September 30, 2024 and $6.7 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2024.
(B) Impairment charges - On July 2, 2019, we executed a facility lease with the intent of building a new FlyOver attraction, FlyOver Canada Toronto. Effective August 6, 2024, this facility lease was terminated. During the three months ended September 30, 2024, we recorded an asset impairment charge of $5.5 million related to site-specific engineering plans developed for this attraction. Additionally, during July 2024, a wildfire entered Jasper National Park and Pursuit's Wilderness Kitchen was lost to the wildfire. During the three months ended September 30, 2024, we recorded an impairment charge of $0.6 million against intangible assets (trademark and favorable lease) related to this loss.
(C) Income tax expense – The effective tax rate was 15.8% for the three months ended September 30, 2024, 15.6% for the three months ended September 30, 2023, 22.4% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, and 25.3% for nine months ended September 30, 2023. The effective tax rates differed from the 21% federal rate as we do not recognize a tax benefit primarily on losses in the United States where we have a valuation allowance. During the three months ended September 30, 2024, we released a valuation allowance of $0.5 million recorded on deferred tax assets with certain separate states. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, we also recorded a $1.1 million benefit for the release of the valuation allowance recorded on the United Kingdom's tax loss carryforwards, offset by a $0.5 million expense during the first quarter of 2024 to record estimated withholding taxes associated with repatriating Sky Lagoon's earnings and a valuation allowance against the tax credit generated from this withholding tax. The effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, was further impacted by the release of a valuation allowance of $2.1 million during the first quarter of 2023 on deferred tax assets associated with certain separate state filings, which more than offset taxes due in jurisdictions without a valuation allowance.
(D) Income per common share — We apply the two-class method in calculating income (loss) per common share as preferred stock and unvested share-based payment awards that contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends are considered participating securities. Accordingly, such securities are included in the earnings allocation in calculating income per share.
Diluted income (loss) per common share is calculated using the more dilutive of the two-class method or as-converted method. The two-class method uses net income (loss) available to common stockholders and assumes conversion of all potential shares other than participating securities. The as-converted method uses net income (loss) available to common shareholders and assumes conversion of all potential shares including participating securities. Dilutive potential common shares include outstanding stock options, unvested restricted share units and convertible preferred stock.
The components of basic and diluted income (loss) per share are as follows:

VIAD CORP
TABLE TWO - NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES (UNAUDITED)
IMPORTANT DISCLOSURES REGARDING NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
This document includes the presentation of "Adjusted Net Income (Loss)", "Adjusted EBITDA", "Segment Operating Income (Loss)", and "Adjusted Segment Operating Income (Loss)", which are supplemental to results presented under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies. These non-GAAP measures are utilized by management to facilitate period-to-period comparisons and analysis of Viad's operating performance and should be considered in addition to, but not as substitutes for, other similar measures reported in accordance with GAAP. The use of these non-GAAP financial measures is limited, compared to the GAAP measure of net income attributable to Viad, because they do not consider a variety of items affecting Viad's consolidated financial performance as reconciled below. Because these non-GAAP measures do not consider all items affecting Viad's consolidated financial performance, a user of Viad's financial information should consider net income attributable to Viad as an important measure of financial performance because it provides a more complete measure of the Company's performance.
Adjusted Net Income (Loss), Segment Operating Income (Loss), and Adjusted Segment Operating Income (Loss) are considered useful operating metrics, in addition to net income attributable to Viad, as potential variations arising from non-operational expenses/income are eliminated, thus resulting in additional measures considered to be indicative of Viad's performance. Management believes that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors regarding Viad's results of operations for trending, analyzing and benchmarking the performance and value of Viad's business. Management also believes that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA for acquisitions and other major capital projects enables investors to assess how effectively management is investing capital into major corporate development projects, both from a valuation and return perspective.

2 Included in corporate activities |
||||||||||||||||
3 Includes costs primarily related to the development of Pursuit's new FlyOver attraction in Chicago and trailing costs related to the FlyOver Toronto lease exit. |
||||||||||||||||
4 Includes non-capitalizable fees and expenses related to Viad's shelf registration in 2024 and Viad's credit facility refinancing efforts in 2023. |
(B) Remeasurement of finance lease obligation attributable to Viad represents the non-cash foreign exchange loss/(gain) included within Cost of Services related to the periodic remeasurement of the Sky Lagoon finance lease obligation that is attributed to Viad's 51% interest in Sky Lagoon.
(C) We exclude the adjustment to the redemption value of redeemable noncontrolling interest from the calculation of adjusted net income (loss) per share as it is a non-cash adjustment that does not affect net income or loss attributable to Viad.
(D) Preferred stock and unvested share-based payment awards that contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends are considered participating securities. Accordingly, such securities are included in the earnings allocation in calculating adjusted net income (loss) per common share unless the effect of such inclusion is anti-dilutive. The following table provides the share data used for calculating the allocation to participating securities if applicable:
