Vail Resorts reports Q1 EPS ($4.61) vs. ($4.60) last year

Reports Q1 revenue $260.28M vs. $258.57M last year. Commenting on the company’s fiscal 2025 first quarter results, Kirsten Lynch, Chief Executive Officer, said, “Our first fiscal quarter historically operates at a loss, given that our North American and European mountain resorts are generally not open for ski season. The quarter’s results were driven by winter operations in Australia and summer activities in North America, including sightseeing, dining, retail, lodging, and administrative expenses. Resort Reported EBITDA was consistent with the prior year, driven by growth in our North American summer business from increased activities spending and lodging results. This growth was offset by a decline in Resort Reported EBITDA of $9 million compared to the prior year from our Australian resorts due to record low snowfall and lower demand, cost inflation, the inclusion of Crans-Montana, and approximately $2.7 million of one-time costs related to the two-year resource efficiency transformation plan and $0.9 million of acquisition and integration related expenses.”
