PURSUIT Reports FULL YEAR AND FOURTH Quarter 2025 Results, Provides 2026 GUIDANCE AND introduces LONG-TERM FINANCIAL TARGETS
Delivered record full year performance with 23% revenue growth and strong margin expansion
Guides for strong growth in 2026 with continued consumer demand for experiential travel in iconic destinations
Introduces 2030 long-term financial targets supported by proven strategy and strong balance sheet to drive next phase of accelerated growth
DENVER, February 25, 2026 -- Pursuit Attractions and Hospitality, Inc. (“Pursuit”) (NYSE: PRSU) today reported fourth quarter and full year 2025 results, reflecting strong financial performance supported by continued execution against strategic priorities. Pursuit also provided guidance for the full year 2026 and introduced long-term financial targets for 2030, underscoring confidence in the company’s strategy and operating model.
“2025 was a defining year for Pursuit, marking our first full year as a standalone company with record revenue and Adjusted EBITDA, strong execution, and portfolio transformation,” said David Barry, Pursuit president and chief executive officer. “We strengthened our balance sheet, sharpened our strategic focus, and advanced our ambition to own and operate iconic attractions and hospitality experiences in the world’s most sought-after destinations. Through disciplined capital allocation, we invested in high-return growth opportunities, expanded into a new global market, repurchased shares at attractive valuations and recently announced an agreement to sell non-core assets. With a high-quality collection of experiential infrastructure that enables our guests to access and experience iconic natural places, an experienced world class team, enhanced financial strength, and a robust pipeline for our proven Refresh, Build, Buy investment strategy, we’re confident in our ability to build on this momentum and drive meaningful growth into 2026 and beyond.”
“We are continuing our path to transformational growth to become the world’s leading iconic attractions and hospitality company, guided by Vision 2030 - our plan to grow with intention by investing in our people, our guests, our experiential infrastructure and our future,” Barry continued. “Today, we’re introducing long-term financial targets supported by a clear roadmap across our four key value creation levers - elevating performance across iconic experiences, driving organic growth through Refresh and Build projects, accelerating expansion through strategic acquisitions, and efficiently deploying capital through opportunistic share repurchases. By 2030, we expect to deliver Adjusted EBITDA of more than $265 million.”
“Pursuit’s success is grounded in the perennial demand for our iconic destinations, an obsessive focus on delivering exceptional guest experiences, and a disciplined approach to growth and capital allocation,” said Barry. “These strengths give us multiple levers to drive sustainable growth and margin expansion, supported by a strong balance sheet, positioning us well to execute against and achieve our long-term revenue and Adjusted EBITDA targets while creating lasting shareholder value.”
In addition to the commentary below, further information regarding Pursuit's financial results, trends, and outlook are available in a supplemental earnings presentation, which can be accessed on the "Investors" section of the company's website, and in the financial tables accompanying this press release.
Full Year and Fourth Quarter 2025 Financial Highlights
Pursuit delivered record revenue of $452.4 million for the full year and $57.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2025, representing increases of 23.4% and 24.6% year-over-year, respectively. This growth primarily reflected strong post-wildfire recovery across Pursuit’s Jasper properties, incremental growth from its new experiences, and continued momentum in guest demand for our distinctive experiences in iconic places.
Full year net income attributable to Pursuit was $22.7 million with a fourth quarter seasonal net loss attributable to Pursuit of $25.7 million for 2025. The year-over-year changes from 2024 net income attributable to Pursuit of $368.5 million for the full year and $315.7 million for the fourth quarter were primarily driven by the sale of GES in 2024*.
Full year adjusted net income** was $33.5 million ($1.18 per share) for 2025 versus $3.7 million ($(0.15) per share) for 2024, and fourth quarter adjusted net loss** was $25.0 million ($(0.89) per share) for 2025 versus a loss of $21.8 million ($(0.82) per share) for 2024. The year-over-year improvements primarily reflect higher Adjusted EBITDA.
Adjusted EBITDA** was $117.1 million for the full year 2025 and negative $12.4 million for the seasonally slow fourth quarter.
Full year Adjusted EBITDA** grew $40.1 million year-over-year primarily due to higher revenue, with strong margin flow-through driven by strong operating leverage in the business and continued cost discipline.
* In December 2024, Pursuit completed the sale of its GES business and, as a result, the company has accounted for the GES business as a discontinued operation. All amounts and disclosures for all periods presented in this press release and supplemental earnings presentation reflect only the continuing operations unless otherwise noted.
** Refer to Table Two of this press release for a discussion and reconciliation of this non-GAAP financial measure to its most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.
December 31, 2025 Balance Sheet and Liquidity Highlights
Total liquidity was $238.1 million at December 31, 2025, comprising cash and cash equivalents of $31.1 million and $207.0 million of capacity available on the company’s $300 million revolving credit facility.
Total debt was $159.1 million and the net leverage ratio was 1.0x at the end of the year, below the company’s target range of 2.0x to 3.5x.
Flyover Sale for $78.4 Million Expected to Close in Spring 2026
On January 21, 2026, Pursuit entered into a definitive agreement to sell its Flyover Attractions business to Brogent Technologies Inc. for approximately $78.4 million, subject to customary adjustments, representing a multiple of approximately 15x Flyover’s 2025 Adjusted EBITDA contribution. The transaction is expected to close this spring, subject to regulatory approvals and customary closing conditions. Flyover will continue to operate as part of Pursuit until closing to support a smooth transition. The sale further aligns Pursuit’s portfolio with its strategy to directly focus on core sightseeing attractions and hospitality experiences in iconic destinations.
2026 Outlook
For full year 2026, Pursuit expects Adjusted EBITDA of approximately $123 million to $133 million, representing growth of approximately 9% at the mid-point relative to 2025. Full year 2025 includes $38.6 million of revenue and $5.2 million of Adjusted EBITDA contribution from Flyover, while the full year 2026 guidance assumes the Flyover business is sold in Spring 2026.
When adjusting to exclude Flyover results from both 2025 and 2026, Pursuit’s mid-point guidance reflects growth of approximately 10% in revenue and 14% in Adjusted EBITDA.
The company’s guidance is below.
| (in millions) | Full Year 2026 Guidance | Full Year 2025 Actual |
| Revenue | $465 at the mid-point including ~$8 from Flyover | $452.4$413.8 excluding Flyover |
| Adjusted EBITDA* | $123 to $133including ~$0.5 from Flyover | $117.1$111.9 excluding Flyover |
| Maintenance Capex | $31 to $36(~7% of Revenue at the mid-point) | $33.4 |
| Growth Capex | $88 to $93 | $41.6 |
| Total Capex | $121 to $127 | $75.0 |
The company’s guidance is based on certain assumptions, including (1) organic growth from continued guest experience improvements, demand for authentic experiential travel in iconic places, and focus on revenue and cost management, (2) approximately $7 million to $8 million of incremental Adjusted EBITDA from the Tabacón acquisition completed on July 1, 2025, (3) approximately $0.5 million of Adjusted EBITDA contribution from Flyover assuming the sale closes in Spring 2026, (4) minimal impact from multi-year growth capital expenditures in 2026, and (5) an exchange rate of $0.73 between the Canadian Dollar and the U.S. Dollar for Pursuit’s operations in Canada.
Long-Term Financial Targets: Vision 2030
Pursuit is introducing long-term revenue and Adjusted EBITDA targets, which reflect the expected results of executing a clear roadmap across the company’s four key value-creation levers - elevating performance across iconic experiences, driving organic growth through Refresh & Build projects, accelerating expansion through strategic acquisitions, and efficiently deploying capital - and underpin the company’s confidence in long-term shareholder value creation.
Pursuit’s five-year financial targets for 2030 are below.
2030 Revenue Target: greater than $845 million, reflecting continued double-digit compounded annual revenue growth through 2030 excluding Flyover.
2030 Adjusted EBITDA Target*: greater than $265 million, more than 2.3 times 2025 Adjusted EBITDA excluding Flyover through a combination of baseline growth in the business, organic growth investments and strategic acquisitions.
The company’s long-term revenue and Adjusted EBITDA targets are based on management’s current expectations and certain macro assumptions, including (1) operating in a normal environment with stable macroeconomic conditions and consistent consumer demand trends, and (2) an exchange rate of $0.73 between the Canadian Dollar and the U.S. Dollar for its operations in Canada.
*Pursuit has not quantitatively reconciled its guidance for Adjusted EBITDA to the company’s 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 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 Pursuit’s results as reported under GAAP.
Four Powerful Levers to Drive Shareholder Value
Supported by a strong track record and balance sheet, Pursuit seeks to drive shareholder value through the following four strategic levers:
(1) Elevating Performance Across Iconic Experiences
Pursuit generates consistent year-over-year performance by elevating execution across its portfolio of iconic experiences, supported by strong perennial demand and a relentless focus on delivering high-quality guest experiences. Leveraging its scale, operational expertise, and disciplined execution in markets with favorable secular trends, Pursuit drives baseline growth from increased guest satisfaction and price and volume optimization with strong flow-through to EBITDA, reflecting the high operating leverage of its business model.
(2) Driving Organic Growth Through REFRESH and BUILD Projects
Pursuit enhances the guest experience and expands capacity through targeted organic investments designed to generate attractive returns.
REFRESH focuses on elevating existing assets to enhance guest and team member experiences while maximizing returns. BUILD brings new, high-impact experiences to iconic destinations, unlocking new revenue streams and operational efficiencies.
Pursuit has identified more than $300 million of Refresh and Build growth investments that the company believes it can execute from 2026 to 2030 to fuel continuous long-term growth by driving incremental capacity and yield opportunities in high demand markets.
During 2026, Pursuit expects to invest approximately $88 million to $93 million in organic growth capital expenditures. This includes large-scale multi-year projects planned to be initiated in 2026, subject to approvals, with a total investment commitment of approximately $200 million and an estimated effective Adjusted EBITDA multiple of less than 7x by 2030. The company anticipates a large portion of these returns beginning in 2028.
Select 2026 Refresh/Build Investments (Subject to Approvals) Include:
Jasper SkyTram (Jasper National Park) - Planned investments to replace aged experiential infrastructure with a renewed, iconic Jasper sightseeing experience.
Banff Gondola (Banff National Park) - Planned investments to make experiential enhancements improving all aspects of the guest journey at this iconic attraction.
Denali Backcountry Adventure Relaunch (Denali National Park) - Planned enhancements to reimagine the guided guest journey experience into Denali National Park returning it to readiness ahead of the Denali Park Road reopening in 2027.
Forest Park Hotel Woodland Wing (Jasper National Park) - Phased refresh is designed to better align the property with mass affluent leisure demand in Jasper National Park. The first phase was completed ahead of the 2025 peak third quarter and delivered a 22% ADR increase versus nonrenovated rooms in the second half of the year, with the next phase underway and expected to be completed ahead of the 2026 peak season.
Grouse Mountain Lodge (Whitefish, Montana) - Phased transformation to reposition the property for higher end lodging and event demand creating a compelling differentiated offering for Glacier National Park visitors. The first phase, which has commenced, includes upgrades to guest rooms and pool area and the addition of the new event pavilion, with completion expected in 2026.
Lobstick Lodge Refresh (Jasper National Park) - Planned investments to improve and reposition the year-round lodge to capitalize on high market demand from both consumer and tour and travel segments.
(3) Accelerating Expansion Through BUY Strategic Acquisitions
Pursuit pursues complementary acquisitions supported by a robust pipeline of new opportunities that align with its long-term strategy and values.
The company targets unique, high-quality businesses that complement its portfolio and offer clear paths to performance improvement, while expanding curated collections of experiences in iconic destinations. Pursuit’s active acquisition pipeline spans both existing and new geographies with strong perennial demand, enabling it to leverage economies of scale and scope and support sustained long-term growth.
During 2025, Pursuit invested approximately $126 million in strategic acquisitions, including:
Tabacón Thermal Resort & Spa ($111 million, July 2025) - premier year-round thermal river attractions and luxury resort in Costa Rica’s Arenal region that aligns with Pursuit’s focus on iconic destinations with strong perennial demand and enhances geographic and seasonal diversification.
Minority interests ($15 million, September and December 2025) - full ownership of Glacier Park Inc., its Glacier National Park area subsidiary, and Flyover Iceland simplifying the capital structure and eliminating $25 million in noncontrolling interest liabilities.
(4) Efficiently Deploying Capital Through Opportunistic Share Repurchases
Pursuit deploys capital with discipline, including investing in its own shares at compelling valuations, reflecting confidence in its long-term outlook.
Since November earnings, Pursuit repurchased $14.5 million of common stock at an average price of $33.47 per share under its $50 million authorization. Approximately $35.5 million remains available for future repurchases.
Pursuit’s strong balance sheet and low net leverage of 1.0x at December 31, 2025, well below the company’s target range of 2.0x to 3.5x, provides meaningful capacity to deploy capital into Refresh, Build, Buy growth investments and opportunistically repurchase shares.
Pursuit has a disciplined investment strategy designed to effectively scale the business and maximize shareholder value by applying a 15%+ IRR hurdle to investments in forever one-of-a-kind, world-class experiences with strong perennial demand, limited supply, and attractive margins.
Over the last decade, Pursuit has completed 16 major Refresh, Build, and Buy growth projects that collectively contributed approximately $102 million of Adjusted EBITDA in 2025, reflecting an effective Adjusted EBITDA multiple of approximately 6x, demonstrating a disciplined, repeatable investment approach and supporting expectations for continued attractive returns.

PURSUIT ATTRACTIONS AND HOSPITALITY, INC. ("PURSUIT")
TABLE ONE - NOTES TO QUARTERLY AND FULL YEAR RESULTS (UNAUDITED)
(A) Operating expenses (exclusive of depreciation and amortization) - The increase in operating expenses for full year 2025 compared to full year 2024 was primarily due to increases in variable costs associated with increased transaction volumes and revenue, including increases of $10.7 million in labor expense, $5.7 million in commission and other variable revenue-based fees, and other inflationary cost increases. These increases were partially offset by the periodic remeasurement of the Sky Lagoon finance lease obligation, which resulted in a decrease of $5.8 million. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified in order to conform to the current year presentation.
(B) Selling, general, and administrative expenses - The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses for full year 2025 was primarily due to higher transaction-related costs (primarily related to our transition to a standalone publicly-traded operating company in connection with the GES Sale, as well as expenses associated with our acquisition of Tabacón and the Flyover transaction), along with an increase of $4.0 million in labor expense. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified in order to conform to the current year presentation.
(C) Impairment charges - As a result of our impairment tests for long-lived assets and goodwill in full year 2024, we recorded a non-cash impairment charge of $27.5 million on certain assets at our Flyover Las Vegas asset group and a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $14.0 million associated with our Flyover Attractions reporting unit.
(D) Income tax expense - The effective income tax rates were 30.0% and a negative 13.9% in full year 2025 and full year 2024, respectively. The higher full year 2025 effective tax rate relative to the 21% federal rate reflects the absence of tax benefits on U.S. losses due to a valuation allowance. The negative effective tax rate in full year 2024 primarily resulted from changes to the valuation allowance associated with the GES Sale.
(E) Income (loss) from discontinued operations - On December 31, 2024, we completed the GES Sale. We determined that the GES Sale met the criteria to be classified as a discontinued operation. Accordingly, the financial results for all periods presented reflect the GES Business as discontinued operations.
(F) Income (loss) per common share - Diluted income (loss) per common share is calculated using the more dilutive of the two-class method or if-converted method. The two-class method uses net income (loss) available to common stockholders and assumes conversion of all potential shares other than the participating securities. The if-converted method uses net income (loss) available to common stockholders and assumes conversion of all potential shares including the participating securities. Dilutive potential common shares include outstanding stock options, unvested restricted share units and convertible preferred stock. The company applies the two-class method in calculating income (loss) per common share as unvested share-based payment awards that contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends and preferred stock are considered participating securities. Accordingly, such securities are included in the earnings allocation in calculating income (loss) per share. The adjustment to the carrying value of the redeemable noncontrolling interest is reflected in income (loss) per common share.
The components of basic and diluted income (loss) per share are as follows:
| Three months ended December 31, | Year ended December 31, |
|---|
| (in thousands) | 2025 | 2024 | $ Change | % Change | 2025 | 2024 | $ Change | % Change |

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 EPS”, "Adjusted EBITDA", and “Adjusted EBITDA Margin”, 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 Pursuit’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 most comparable GAAP measures, because they do not consider a variety of items affecting Pursuit’s consolidated financial performance as reconciled below. Because these non-GAAP measures do not consider all items affecting Pursuit’s consolidated financial performance, a user of Pursuit’s financial information should consider net income attributable to Pursuit as an important measure of financial performance because it provides a more complete measure of the Company’s performance.
Adjusted Net Income (Loss), Adjusted EPS, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA Margin are considered useful operating metrics, in addition to net income attributable to Pursuit, as potential variations arising from non-operational expenses/income are eliminated, thus resulting in additional measures considered to be indicative of Pursuit’s performance. Management believes that the presentation of Adjusted Net Income (Loss), Adjusted EPS, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA Margin provide useful information to investors regarding Pursuit’s results of operations for trending, analyzing and benchmarking the performance and value of Pursuit’s business.
Additionally, the company calculates the impact of foreign exchange rate variances by converting non-United States Dollar results using comparative period exchange rates and determining the change from prior period reported results.
