- Strong second quarter results exceed prior guidance
- GES show performance and client spend remain strong; raising
full year outlook
- Pursuit experiencing stronger guest demand; wildfires in
Jasper bring uncertainty to full year outlook
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 second quarter.
Steve Moster, Viad’s President and Chief Executive Officer,
commented, “We delivered very strong second quarter results that
exceeded our expectations. Both Pursuit and GES have seen
significant demand for our extraordinary experiences and achieved
remarkable results. Pursuit's 14% revenue growth during the quarter
was largely driven by strong performance from our attractions, with
a 15% increase in visitors at higher effective ticket prices. GES
continues to deliver solid profitable growth primarily from
stronger high-margin corporate client spending and disciplined cost
management.”

Second Quarter Results
- Revenue of $378.5 million increased $58.2 million (18.2%) from
the 2023 second quarter.
- Pursuit revenue of $101.2 million increased $12.7 million
(14.4%) year-over-year due to growth across our collections of
properties, with particularly strong demand for our attractions and
contribution from Flyover Chicago (opened March 2024).
- GES revenue of $277.3 million increased $45.5 million (19.6%)
year-over-year primarily due to new client wins and continued
underlying growth.
- Net income attributable to Viad of $29.3 million increased
$18.4 million and adjusted net income* of $29.2 million improved
$17.4 million from the 2023 second quarter primarily due to
stronger business performance from both GES and Pursuit, partially
offset by higher depreciation expense.
- Consolidated adjusted EBITDA* of $64.3 million increased $21.5
million from the 2023 second quarter.
- Pursuit adjusted EBITDA* of $23.7 million increased $4.2
million year-over-year primarily due to stronger revenue and
improved margin.
- GES adjusted EBITDA of $44.4 million increased $17.6 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 $20
million for the second quarter.
- Our capital expenditures for the second quarter totaled
approximately $17 million, comprising $14.4 million for Pursuit
(inclusive of about $6 million for growth projects) and $2.7
million for GES.
- Our debt proceeds (net) totaled $2.5 million for the second
quarter.
- Our total liquidity was $128.4 million at June 30, 2024,
comprising cash and cash equivalents of $49.0 million and $79.4
million of capacity available on our revolving credit
facility.
- Our debt was $490.9 million, and our net leverage ratio was 2.4
at the end of the second quarter.
Jasper Wildfire Update
As we previously reported by 8-K, Jasper National Park was
closed and evacuated on July 22, 2024, and a wildfire entered the
Jasper townsite on July 24, 2024. The Municipality of Jasper
reported that about 70% of the town, including homes, businesses
and hotels were thankfully untouched by fire and are intact. All
critical municipal infrastructure was successfully protected, and
power is being restored as authorities work to safely re-open the
town.
All Pursuit hotels and experiences in the Jasper townsite, as
well as our Pyramid Lake Lodge, Miette Mountain Cabins, and Maligne
Lake Boat Cruise were not reached by the fire and remain intact.
Our known property losses have been limited to the Maligne Canyon
Wilderness Kitchen, a restaurant and retail operation about 3 miles
outside the town of Jasper.
The majority of the park, including the town of Jasper, remains
closed as authorities continue work to control the fire and restore
critical services to the Jasper townsite. Parks Canada communicated
that if current conditions continue, visitor services in the park
are expected to resume September 3, 2024.
We are working with our insurance carriers to determine the
extent of potential recoveries from our policies, which will be
highly fact determinative based on what we learn when we and our
insurance adjusters are able to access our properties.
2024 Outlook
Steve Moster, Viad’s President and Chief Executive Officer,
said, “Given our stronger than expected performance during the
first half of 2024 and the favorable underlying demand trends we
are seeing, we were prepared to raise our full year guidance.
However, following the Jasper wildfire activity, which resulted in
the temporary closure of our properties in the area, we are
providing revised guidance for Pursuit that estimates the potential
impact. For GES, we are raising our full year Adjusted EBITDA
guidance range by $5 million.”
Our guidance for Viad consolidated, Pursuit, and GES is below.
Pursuit's guidance range assumes Jasper National Park re-opens on
September 3 and is subject to change due to the evolving wildfire
situation. We will update as appropriate during the third
quarter.

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 increased consulting
costs.
(B) Income tax expense – The effective tax
rate was 16.3% for the three months ended June 30, 2024, 30.0% for
the three months ended June 30, 2023, 63.9% for the six months
ended June 30, 2024, and a negative 86.2% for six months ended June
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. For the six
months ended June 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 six months ended
June 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.
(C) Income (Loss) 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.

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
