Pursuit delivered 14% revenue growth and successfully launched new attraction
GES drove margin expansion with healthy revenue growth
Maintain outlook for strong full year growth as positive trends continue for both businesses

Viad Corp (NYSE:VVI), a leading global provider of extraordinary experiences, including attractions, hospitality, exhibition management services, and experiential marketing, today reported results for the 2024 first quarter.

Steve Moster, Viad's President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, "We delivered solid first quarter results that were in line with our expectations. Pursuit's 14% revenue growth during the seasonally slower quarter was driven by strong attractions performance, including an impressive launch of our new FlyOver Chicago attraction. GES continues to deliver strong profitable growth, with a 70 basis point year-over-year improvement in its Adjusted EBITDA margin."

Moster continued, "With accelerating business activity ahead and signs of robust demand for our extraordinary experiences at both Pursuit and GES, our favorable full year outlook remains unchanged. We continue to expect year-over-year consolidated adjusted EBITDA growth of approximately 16% to 30% in 2024 with strong free cash flow."

First Quarter Results

Revenue of $273.5 million increased $12.7 million (4.9%) from the 2023 first quarter.
- Pursuit revenue of $37.2 million increased $4.6 million (14.0%) year-over-year primarily due to growth at our year-round attractions, with particularly strong demand for Sky Lagoon in Iceland and the opening of FlyOver Chicago on March 1.
- GES revenue of $236.3 million increased $8.1 million (3.6%) year-over-year primarily due to continued underlying growth that more than offset a $4 million decline due to the timing of major non-annual shows.
Net loss attributable to Viad of $25.1 million increased $4.2 million from the 2023 first quarter primarily due to higher non-operational items and income tax expense.
- Adjusted net loss* of $21.7 million improved $0.3 million primarily due to stronger consolidated Adjusted EBITDA and lower interest expense, partially offset by higher depreciation expense.
Consolidated adjusted EBITDA* of $4.3 million increased $0.9 million from the 2023 first quarter.
- Pursuit adjusted EBITDA* of negative $11.1 million declined by $0.8 million year-over-year primarily reflecting increased operating costs to support higher business volume.
- GES adjusted EBITDA of $18.9 million increased $2.2 million year-over-year primarily due to higher revenue and improved margin.

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 transaction-related consulting costs.

(B) Income tax expense – The effective tax rate was a negative 3.5% for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and a positive 2.6% for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The effective rates differed from the 21% federal rate as we do not recognize a tax benefit on losses in the United States and other European countries where we have a valuation allowance. For the three months ended March 31, 2024, we included in the annualized effective rate a $1.1 million benefit for the release of the valuation allowance recorded on the UK tax loss carryforwards. We also recorded a $0.5 million expense to record estimated withholding taxes associated with the repatriation of Sky Lagoon earnings and a valuation allowance against the tax credit generated from this withholding tax. During the three months March 31, 2023, we released the valuation allowance of $2.1 million that was recorded on deferred tax assets associated with certain separate states, 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.

Additionally, the adjustment to the carrying value of redeemable non-controlling interests is reflected in income (loss) per common share.

The components of basic and diluted income (loss) per share are as follows:

	Three months ended March 31,

(D) Convertible Series A Preferred Stock — On August 5, 2020, we entered into an Investment Agreement with funds managed by private equity firm Crestview Partners, relating to the issuance of 135,000 shares of newly issued Convertible Series A Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share, for an aggregate purchase price of $135 million or $1,000 per share. The Convertible Series A Preferred Stock carries a 5.5% cumulative quarterly dividend, which is payable in cash or in-kind at Viad's option and is convertible into shares of our common stock at a conversion price of $21.25 per share.

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.

(C) We exclude the adjustment to the redemption value of redeemable noncontrolling interest from the calculation of income before other items 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 income (loss) before other items per common share unless the effect of such inclusion is anti-dilutive.
