Aime Summary
Aime SummarySix Flags reported mixed fiscal 2025 Q2 results, with revenue rising sharply but net income swinging to a loss. The company's guidance for Adjusted EBITDA remains in line with earlier estimates, though it now anticipates flat second-half attendance and cost reductions.
Revenue for Six FlagsFUN-- in the second quarter increased by 62.8% to $930.39 million, driven by robust performance across key segments. Admissions revenue amounted to $485.42 million, while food, merchandise, and games generated $323.15 million. Accommodations and other services accounted for an additional $121.81 million, contributing to the total revenue figure.
The company reported a net loss of $74.83 million, or $0.99 per share, in Q2 2025, marking a 234.7% decline from a $55.55 million profit a year earlier. This represents the company’s 20th consecutive year of losses during the same quarter, underscoring its ongoing profitability challenges. The earnings per share performance was notably negative.
The stock price of Six Flags rose 5.87% on the latest trading day but fell 16.02% over the past week and declined 20.03% month-to-date.
A post-earnings trading strategy that involved buying the stock when revenues missed expectations and holding for 30 days produced a 15.60% return. However, this underperformed the benchmark’s 85.29% return. The strategy’s Sharpe ratio of 0.08 suggests modest risk-adjusted returns, and the maximum drawdown was 0%.
CEO Richard Zimmerman expressed disappointment with the results, citing poor weather, economic challenges, and weak consumer demand as factors. Despite these headwinds, he remains confident in the company’s long-term strategy and highlighted early momentum in 2026 season pass sales.
The company revised its 2025 outlook, now expecting Adjusted EBITDA in the range of $860 million to $910 million for the full year. It plans to reduce costs by $90 million, grow Adjusted EBITDA, and continue deleveraging. Zimmerman emphasized the importance of navigating macroeconomic and weather-related uncertainties while integrating new strategic initiatives.
