Vail Resorts Reports Third Quarter Fiscal 2026 Results, Provides Updated Fiscal 2026 Guidance and Provides Early Season Pass Sales ResultsJune 8, 2026 4:05 PM
PR Newswire (US) BROOMFIELD, Colo., June 8, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Vail Resorts, Inc. (NYSE: MTN) today reported results for the third quarter of fiscal 2026 ended April 30, 2026, updated fiscal 2026 guidance and provided early season pass sales results.HighlightsQ3 fiscal 2026 net income attributable to Vail Resorts, Inc. was $314.4 million compared to $389.7 million in the prior year.Q3 fiscal 2026 Resort Reported EBITDA was $586.4 million compared to $647.7 million in the prior year.The Company reduced its fiscal 2026 guidance, in line with the update provided in April, and is now expecting net income attributable to Vail Resorts, Inc. of $128 million to $162 million and Resort Reported EBITDA of $735 million to $755 million.Pass product unit sales through May 26, 2026 for the upcoming 2026/2027 North American ski season decreased approximately 10%, days sold decreased approximately 8% and sales dollars, inclusive of sales and admissions taxes, decreased approximately 5%, as compared to the prior year period through May 27, 2025.The Company declared a quarterly cash dividend of $2.22 per share of Vail Resorts' common stock that will be payable on July 9, 2026 to shareholders of record as of June 25, 2026.Commenting on the Company's fiscal 2026 third quarter results, Rob Katz, Chief Executive Officer said, "Weather conditions remained extremely unfavorable in the third quarter, adding to what had already been one of the most challenging winters in history across the western U.S., driving continued pressure on visitation and revenue in the quarter, particularly at our destination resorts in the Rockies. While these dynamics negatively impacted results, our advance commitment model provided considerable stability and strong cost discipline kept us on track to exceed our resource efficiency transformation plan savings for the year. At the same time, our continued investments in talent, technology and resort operations drove record guest satisfaction scores and strong employee engagement. Despite the weather challenges of the past year, our strategic focus remains unchanged, and we are pleased with the progress we made this year. The new lift ticket products and strategic shifts in our marketing approach showed early positive results this past season, with our lift ticket visitation meaningfully outperforming the industry based on preliminary data, including in the Rockies, and we continued to make significant strides in enhancing the guest experience."Looking ahead, we see significant opportunity to further elevate the guest experience across our resorts through continued investments in lifts, snowmaking, terrain and our talent, while leveraging the scale and strength of our integrated network to implement new technologies and enhance key elements of the guest experience. We have key initiatives underway in our gear, ski school and dining businesses, as well as every facet of guest engagement and communication, and will share updates on these efforts in the upcoming months. Together, these initiatives will play an important role in driving future visitation growth and long-term value creation."Third Quarter Operating ResultsResort Net Revenue decreased $90.4 million, or 7.0%, compared to the prior year, primarily driven by unfavorable weather conditions that impacted visitation and revenue for both local and destination guests, particularly at the Rockies and Tahoe resorts. Compared to the prior year, total lift revenue declined 5%, despite visitation being down 15%, primarily as a result of 2025/2026 North American Pass Sales increasing 3% heading into the season.Resort Reported EBITDA decreased $61.3 million, or 9.5%, compared to the prior year, which was primarily driven by the weather-related headwinds, and were partially offset by disciplined cost management and continued resource efficiency transformation cost savings.Fiscal Year 2026 Guidance Due to the historically challenging weather conditions in the western U.S. that persisted through the third quarter, which negatively impacted demand, the Company is reducing its fiscal 2026 guidance. The Company now expects fiscal 2026 Net Income and Resort EBITDA as follows:Net income attributable to Vail Resorts, Inc. of $128 million to $162 million.Resort Reported EBITDA of $735 million to $755 million.Resource efficiency transformation plan remains on track to achieve an incremental $45 million of efficiencies over the prior year, before one-time costs, and the Company now expects to deliver $106 million of annualized cost efficiencies, representing a $6 million increase above the original two-year plan. Revised Fiscal 2026 Resort EBITDA guidance includes an estimated $13 million of one-time costs in support of the Company's resource efficiency transformation plan.The updated guidance also assumes (1) normal weather conditions and operations throughout the Australian ski season and North American summer season; (2) a continuation of the current economic environment; and (3) foreign currency exchange rates as of June 8, 2026, including an exchange rate of $0.72 between the Canadian Dollar and U.S. Dollar related to the operations of Whistler Blackcomb in Canada, an exchange rate of $0.70 between the Australian Dollar and U.S. Dollar related to the operations of Perisher, Falls Creek and Hotham in Australia, and an exchange rate of $1.26 between the Swiss Franc and U.S. Dollar related to the operations of Andermatt-Sedrun and Crans Montana in Switzerland, and does not include any potential impacts related to future fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, which may be impacted by tariffs, trade disputes, or other factors.The following table reflects the forecasted guidance range for the Company's fiscal year ending July 31, 2026 for Total Reported EBITDA (after stock-based compensation expense) and reconciles net income attributable to Vail Resorts, Inc. guidance to such Total Reported EBITDA guidance.

(1) The provision for income taxes may be impacted by excess tax benefits primarily resulting from vesting and exercises of equity awards. Our estimated provision for income taxes does not include the impact, if any, of unknown future exercises of employee equity awards, which could have a material impact given that a significant portion of our awards may be in-the-money depending on the current value of the stock price.(2) Our guidance includes certain forward looking known changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration based solely on the passage of time and resulting impact on present value. Guidance excludes any forward looking change based upon, among other things, financial projections including long-term growth rates for Park City, which such change may be material.(3) Mountain Reported EBITDA also includes approximately $24 million of stock-based compensation.(4) Lodging Reported EBITDA also includes approximately $3 million of stock-based compensation.(5) The Company provides Reported EBITDA ranges for the Mountain and Lodging segments, as well as for the two combined. The low and high of the expected ranges provided for the Mountain and Lodging segments, while possible, do not sum to the high or low end of the Resort Reported EBITDA range provided because we do not expect or assume that we will hit the low or high end of both ranges. Season Pass SalesPass product units sold through May 26, 2026 for the upcoming North American ski season decreased approximately 10%, days sold1 decreased approximately 8% and sales dollars2, inclusive of sales and admissions taxes, decreased approximately 5%, as compared to the prior year period through May 27, 2025. The decline in performance-to-date reflects softer demand following one of the worst snowfall years in history in the western U.S., most evident in weaker trends across weather-impacted markets such as Colorado, Utah and Lake Tahoe, and among Destination guests who typically visit the Rockies, relative to much stronger performance in the East and at Whistler Blackcomb.The Company is seeing encouraging guest response to its new Young Adult pass products that are solidly outperforming other age groups, in addition to Unlimited pass products solidly outperforming frequency products, underscoring sustained demand for core high-value products.Commenting on the Company's season pass sales for the upcoming North American ski season, Katz said, "While any decline in pass sales is disappointing, it is not surprising given the severity of this past season's conditions and we are encouraged that third-party data indicates our spring pass results are meaningfully outperforming others in the industry during this period. We believe the challenging conditions have delayed purchase decisions, creating the opportunity for improved pass performance in the Fall selling season and/or ultimately through lift ticket purchases during next season. Historical U.S. ski market data indicates that visitation typically fully recovers following a season with poor conditions if the subsequent season has normal conditions, and we believe we are well positioned to capture that visitation with the pass and lift ticket product and marketing strategies we have developed. That said, given how anomalous this past season was, there remains continued uncertainty around how the full pass selling season and next season's visitation will ultimately unfold. We will provide more information about pass sales results and our thoughts on next season in our Q4 earnings release in September."Epic Australia Pass sales through May 27, 2026 increased approximately 26% in units and approximately 31% in sales dollars as compared to the period in the prior year through May 28, 2025.1 Days sold measures an estimate of how many days of access are sold, calculated by assigning a number of days to each pass unit and assumes a blended estimate of 8 days sold to unlimited passes and actual number of access days purchased for frequency products.2 Pass product sales are adjusted to eliminate the impact of foreign currency by applying an exchange rate of $0.72 between the Canadian dollar and U.S. dollar in both periods for Whistler Blackcomb pass sales.Liquidity and Return of CapitalDespite difficult conditions this year, the Company remains confident in its long-term cash flow generation strength and its stable business model.As of April 30, 2026, the Company's total liquidity as measured by total cash plus revolver availability was approximately $1.1 billion.Net Debt was 3.5 times trailing twelve months Total Reported EBITDA.The Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $2.22 per share of Vail Resorts' common stock that will be payable on July 9, 2026 to shareholders of record as of June 25, 2026.The Company reaffirmed its calendar 2026 capital plan of approximately $215 million to $220 million in core capital, consistent with its long-term capital investment guidance. Including growth capital investments, at the Company's European resorts and in support of Resource Efficiency Transformation and real estate planning projects, the Company plans to invest a total of approximately $234 million to $239 million in calendar year 2026.Earnings Conference CallThe Company will conduct a conference call today at 5:00 p.m. Eastern time to discuss the financial results.

Resort Reported EBITDA, Total Reported EBITDA, Resort EBITDA Margin, Net Debt and Net Real Estate Cash Flow should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to, or substitute for, measures of financial performance or liquidity prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, we report segment Reported EBITDA (i.e., Mountain, Lodging and Real Estate), the measure of segment profit or loss required to be disclosed in accordance with GAAP. Accordingly, these measures may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures of other companies. Additionally, with respect to discussion of impacts from currency, the Company calculates the impact by applying current period foreign exchange rates to the prior period results, as the Company believes that comparing financial information using comparable foreign exchange rates is a more objective and useful measure of changes in operating performance.Reported EBITDA (and its counterpart for each of our segments) has been presented herein as a measure of the Company's performance. The Company believes that Reported EBITDA is an indicative measurement of the Company's operating performance and is similar to performance metrics generally used by investors to evaluate other companies in the resort and lodging industries. The Company defines Resort EBITDA Margin as Resort Reported EBITDA divided by Resort net revenue. The Company believes Resort EBITDA Margin is an important measurement of operating performance. The Company believes that Net Debt is an important measurement of liquidity as it is an indicator of the Company's ability to obtain additional capital resources for its future cash needs. Additionally, the Company believes Net Real Estate Cash Flow is important as a cash flow indicator for its Real Estate segment. See the tables provided in this release for reconciliations of our measures of segment profitability and non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.Vail Resorts, Inc.Consolidated Condensed Statements of Operations(In thousands, except per share amounts)(Unaudited)

PR Newswire (US)
BROOMFIELD, Colo., March 9, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Vail Resorts, Inc. (NYSE: MTN) today reported results for the second quarter of fiscal 2026 ended January 31, 2026 and provided the Company's ski season-to-date metrics through March 1, 2026.HighlightsQ2 fiscal 2026 net income attributable to Vail Resorts, Inc. was $210.0 million compared to $244.4 million in the prior year.Q2 fiscal 2026 Resort Reported EBITDA was $421.3 million compared to $459.7 million in the prior year.The Company reduced its fiscal 2026 guidance and is now expecting net income attributable to Vail Resorts, Inc. of $144 million to $190 million and Resort Reported EBITDA of $745 million to $775 million.The Company declared a quarterly cash dividend of $2.22 per share of Vail Resorts' common stock that will be payable on April 9, 2026 to shareholders of record as of March 26, 2026. In addition to the shares repurchased in November, the Company repurchased an additional approximately 0.1 million shares in December, resulting in a total of approximately 0.3 million shares repurchased during the quarter at an average price of approximately $139 per share for a total of $45.0 million in the fiscal year to date period.Commenting on the Company's fiscal 2026 second quarter results, Rob Katz, Chief Executive Officer said, "This has been the most challenging winter across the Rockies that we have ever experienced with the lowest snowfall levels in more than 30 years for our Colorado and Utah resorts, combined with warmer temperatures, resulting in reduced terrain throughout the quarter and into February. Given that backdrop, we are pleased with the strength and stability shown by our operating model, as we reported only modest declines in lift revenue in what many would consider a worst-case weather scenario. While these conditions and the resulting visitation headwinds negatively impacted our quarterly results, we remained focused on the areas within our control. This includes our advanced commitment strategy, continued investments in our resorts and our employees, and progressing key initiatives to optimize visitation, including enhanced marketing and new products. I especially want to recognize the exceptional execution delivered by our teams over the course of the season, resulting in record high enterprise guest satisfaction scores, including increases over prior year in both Colorado and Utah despite conditions, along with continued progress on our transformation plan. I am confident that with our collective strength and focus, we will continue to elevate the guest experience and deliver sustainable long-term value for shareholders."Second Quarter Operating ResultsResort Net Revenue decreased $53.2 million, or 4.7%, compared to the prior year, which was primarily driven by the unfavorable weather conditions that impacted visitation and ancillary spending for both local and destination guests during the period. Compared to the prior year, total lift revenue declined 2.9%, despite visitation being down 13%, primarily as a result of 2025/2026 North American Pass Sales Revenue increasing 3% heading into the season.Resort Reported EBITDA decreased $38.4 million, or 8.3%, compared to the prior year, which was primarily driven by the weather-related headwinds, and were partially offset by disciplined cost management and continued Resource Efficiency Transformation cost savings.Season-to-Date Metrics through March 1, 2026 The Company reported certain ski season metrics for the comparative periods from the beginning of the ski season through March 1, 2026, and for the same prior year period through March 2, 2025. The reported ski season metrics are for the Company's North American destination mountain resorts and regional ski areas, excluding the results of the Australian and European resorts and ski areas in both periods. The data mentioned below is interim period data and is subject to fiscal quarter end review and adjustments.Season-to-date total skier visits were down 11.9% compared to the prior year period.Season-to-date total lift revenue, including an allocated portion of season pass revenue for each applicable period, was down 3.6% compared to the prior year period.Season-to-date ski school revenue was down 8.2% and dining revenue was down 8.6% compared to the prior year period. Retail/rental revenue for North American resort and ski area store locations was down 5.7% compared to the prior year period.Fiscal Year 2026 Guidance Commenting on Fiscal 2026 guidance, Katz said "Due to the persistent, historically challenging weather conditions in the Rockies, which continued to limit terrain availability, the Company is reducing its fiscal 2026 guidance. While we are lowering our estimates for the fiscal year, given the unprecedented weather in the Rockies, the impact from conditions was mitigated by our advance commitment strategy and resource transformation efforts. We are proud of the resilience of the business model and execution of our teams at our resorts that are delivering on the experience for our guests."The Company now expects fiscal 2026 Net Income and Resort EBITDA guidance as follows:Net income attributable to Vail Resorts, Inc. of $144 million to $190 million.Resort Reported EBITDA of $745 million to $775 million. At the midpoint, the guidance implies an estimated Resort EBITDA margin for fiscal 2026 of 26.4%, or 26.9% before one-time costs from the Resource Efficiency Transformation plan.Resource Efficiency Transformation plan remains on track to achieve an incremental $42 million of efficiencies over the prior year and the Company now expects to deliver $106 million of annualized cost efficiencies, representing a $6 million increase above the original two-year plan.Given ongoing variable conditions in the Rockies, there may be greater variability of results; current guidance assumes (1) the Company's estimate of conditions between now and the remainder of the season staying consistent in North America; (2) normal weather conditions for the 2026 Australian ski season; (3) continuation of the current economic environment; and (4) foreign currency exchange rates as of March 6, 2026, including an exchange rate of $0.73 between the Canadian Dollar and U.S. Dollar related to the operations of Whistler Blackcomb in Canada, an exchange rate of $0.70 between the Australian Dollar and U.S. Dollar related to the operations of Perisher, Falls Creek and Hotham in Australia, and an exchange rate of $1.28 between the Swiss Franc and U.S. Dollar related to the operations of Andermatt-Sedrun and Crans Montana in Switzerland, and does not include any potential impacts related to future fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, which may be impacted by tariffs, trade disputes, or other factors.The following table reflects the forecasted guidance range for the Company's fiscal year ending July 31, 2026 for Total Reported EBITDA (after stock-based compensation expense) and reconciles net income attributable to Vail Resorts, Inc. guidance to such Total Reported EBITDA guidance.

(1) The provision for income taxes may be impacted by excess tax benefits primarily resulting from vesting and exercises of equity awards. Our estimated provision for income taxes does not include the impact, if any, of unknown future exercises of employee equity awards, which could have a material impact given that a significant portion of our awards may be in-the-money depending on the current value of the stock price.(2) Our guidance includes certain forward looking known changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration based solely on the passage of time and resulting impact on present value. Guidance excludes any forward looking change based upon, among other things, financial projections including long-term growth rates for Park City, which such change may be material. Additionally, our guidance excludes the impact of any future sales or disposals of land or other assets which are contingent upon future approvals or other outcomes.(3) Mountain Reported EBITDA also includes approximately $25 million of stock-based compensation.(4) Lodging Reported EBITDA also includes approximately $4 million of stock-based compensation.(5) The Company provides Reported EBITDA ranges for the Mountain and Lodging segments, as well as for the two combined. The low and high of the expected ranges provided for the Mountain and Lodging segments, while possible, do not sum to the high or low end of the Resort Reported EBITDA range provided because we do not expect or assume that we will hit the low or high end of both ranges. (6) Guidance estimates are predicated on an exchange rate of $0.73 between the Canadian dollar and U.S. dollar, related to the operations of Whistler Blackcomb in Canada; an exchange rate of $0.70 between the Australian dollar and U.S. dollar, related to the operations of our Australian ski areas; and an exchange rate of $1.28 between the Swiss franc and U.S. dollar, related to the operations of Andermatt-Sedrun and Crans-Montana in Switzerland.Liquidity and Return of CapitalDespite difficult conditions this year, the Company remains confident in the long-term strong cash flow generation capabilities of our Company and its stable business model.As of January 31, 2026, the Company's total liquidity as measured by total cash plus revolver availability was approximately $1.1 billion.Net Debt was 3.1 times trailing twelve months Total Reported EBITDA.In addition to the shares repurchased in November, the Company repurchased approximately 0.1 million shares in December, resulting in approximately 0.3 million total shares repurchased during the quarter at an average price of approximately $139 per share for a total of $45.0 million.In December, the Company drew on the $275.0 million delayed draw term loan within its credit facility to retire the convertible notes with cash at maturity on January 2, 2026.On February 9, 2026, the Company entered into an amendment and restatement of the Ninth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of April 24, 2024 (as amended the "Tenth A&R Credit Agreement"). The Tenth A&R Credit Agreement, among other things, (i) replaces the existing term loan facility with a new $1,275.0 million senior term loan facility; (ii) extends the maturity date of the revolving credit facility and term loan facility; and (iii) reduces the interest rate applicable to borrowings under the Tenth A&R Credit Agreement.The Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $2.22 per share payable on April 9, 2026 to shareholders of record as of March 26, 2026.The Company reaffirmed its calendar 2026 capital plan of approximately $215 million to $220 million in core capital, consistent with its long-term capital investment guidance. Including growth capital investments, at the Company's European resorts and in support of Resource Efficiency Transformation and real estate planning projects, the Company plans to invest a total of approximately $234 million to $239 million in calendar year 2026.Earnings Conference CallThe Company will conduct a conference call today at 5:00 p.m. Eastern time to discuss the financial results.

All guidance and forward-looking statements in this press release are made as of the date hereof and we do not undertake any obligation to update any forecast or forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required by law.Statement Concerning Non-GAAP Financial MeasuresWhen reporting financial results, we use the terms Resort Reported EBITDA, Total Reported EBITDA, Resort EBITDA Margin, Net Debt and Net Real Estate Cash Flow, which are not financial measures under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). Resort Reported EBITDA, Total Reported EBITDA, Resort EBITDA Margin, Net Debt and Net Real Estate Cash Flow should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to, or substitute for, measures of financial performance or liquidity prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, we report segment Reported EBITDA (i.e., Mountain, Lodging and Real Estate), the measure of segment profit or loss required to be disclosed in accordance with GAAP. Accordingly, these measures may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures of other companies. Additionally, with respect to discussion of impacts from currency, the Company calculates the impact by applying current period foreign exchange rates to the prior period results, as the Company believes that comparing financial information using comparable foreign exchange rates is a more objective and useful measure of changes in operating performance.Reported EBITDA (and its counterpart for each of our segments) has been presented herein as a measure of the Company's performance. The Company believes that Reported EBITDA is an indicative measurement of the Company's operating performance, and is similar to performance metrics generally used by investors to evaluate other companies in the resort and lodging industries. The Company defines Resort EBITDA Margin as Resort Reported EBITDA divided by Resort net revenue. The Company believes Resort EBITDA Margin is an important measurement of operating performance. The Company believes that Net Debt is an important measurement of liquidity as it is an indicator of the Company's ability to obtain additional capital resources for its future cash needs. Additionally, the Company believes Net Real Estate Cash Flow is important as a cash flow indicator for its Real Estate segment. See the tables provided in this release for reconciliations of our measures of segment profitability and non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.Vail Resorts, Inc.Consolidated Condensed Statements of Operations(In thousands, except per share amounts)(Unaudited)
