Vail Resorts Reports Fiscal 2016 First Quarter Results and Early Ski Season Indicators

December 7, 2015 6:45 AM EST

BROOMFIELD, Colo., Dec. 7, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Vail Resorts, Inc. (NYSE: MTN) today reported results for the first quarter of fiscal 2016 ended October 31, 2015, as well as certain early ski season indicators.

Highlights

  • Resort Reported EBITDA loss was $46.5 million for the first fiscal quarter of 2016 including results from Perisher. This compares to a loss of $70.5 million in the same period in the prior year, excluding the $16.4 million non-cash gain on the Park City litigation settlement.
  • Net loss attributable to Vail Resorts, Inc. was $59.6 million for the first fiscal quarter of 2016 compared to a net loss of $64.3 million in the same period in the prior year.
  • Sales of season passes through December 5, 2015 for the 2015/2016 ski season were up approximately 13% in units and approximately 19% in sales dollars versus the comparable period in the prior year, excluding Perisher Freedom Pass and Epic Australia Pass sales in both periods.
  • The Company reaffirmed its guidance for fiscal year 2016 of $405 million to $430 million of Resort Reported EBITDA.

Commenting on the Company's fiscal 2016 first quarter results, Rob Katz, Chief Executive Officer, said, "Our first fiscal quarter historically operates at a loss given that our U.S. based mountain resorts are not open for winter ski operations during the period. The quarter's results are primarily driven by our summer activities, dining, retail/rental and lodging operations, administrative expenses and, for the first time, the operating results from Perisher.  We were very pleased with our results in the quarter, with strong summer visitation to our U.S. mountain resorts driving increases in all of our key lines of business bolstered by the investments we have made in new summer activities.  Additionally, we are very pleased with the results from Perisher's first season under our ownership.  Perisher's results exceeded the expectations we had when we completed the acquisition due to strong visitation, in part driven by strong season pass sales following the announcement of our transaction, and strong yield growth.  Our lodging results for the fiscal quarter were very encouraging with both occupancy and rate increases compared to the prior year. In particular, our properties at Grand Teton Lodge Company experienced strong visitation and spending as the park reached near record visitation levels this summer."

Regarding Real Estate, Katz said, "We continue to see positive momentum in our resort real estate markets.  In the first fiscal quarter, we closed on sales of two units at Ritz-Carlton Residences, Vail and two units at One Ski Hill Place, as well as the sale of a land parcel.  Real Estate Reported EBITDA was $1.2 million for the first fiscal quarter, as compared to a loss of $2.2 million in the first fiscal quarter last year.  For the quarter, Net Real Estate Cash Flow totaled $10.0 million."

Katz continued, "Our balance sheet remains very strong.  We ended the quarter with $39.6 million of cash on hand, and $197.5 million of outstanding borrowings under the revolver portion of our senior credit facility, primarily as a result of funding the Perisher acquisition. Our Net Debt (including our capitalized Canyons lease obligation) was 2.1 times trailing twelve months Total Reported EBITDA.  Given our strong financial position, robust operating cash flow generation and confidence in the future growth of our business, we will continue to be more aggressive in returning capital to our shareholders while continuing to reinvest in our business.  Toward this end, during the quarter we repurchased 377,830 shares of our common stock at a weighted average price of $105.85 per share, requiring total funding of $40 million.  In addition, our Board of Directors has increased our authorization for share repurchases by 1.5 million shares to approximately 2.2 million shares and we intend to maintain an opportunistic, but methodical, approach to share repurchases. I am also pleased to announce that our Board of Directors has declared a quarterly cash dividend on Vail Resorts' common stock of $0.6225 per share of common stock.  We believe that a combination of quarterly dividends and share repurchases are an effective strategy to return capital to our investors while maintaining the flexibility to continue investing in the strategic and internal growth of our business."

Regarding the upcoming ski season, Katz said, "Our 2015/2016 ski season is just underway and we are excited to officially open the new Park City which is now the largest ski resort in the United States.  Our $50 million investment to combine and transform Park City and Canyons is complete, including the new Quicksilver gondola, upgraded King Con and Motherlode chairlifts with increased capacity, and new and improved dining facilities with the addition of the 500 seat Miner's Camp restaurant at the base of the Quicksilver gondola, the 250 seat expansion of the Red Pine Lodge and the renovated Summit House. Together, these improvements will dramatically improve the guest experience this season and for years to come.  In addition to the transformation of Park City, we have also upgraded the Avanti chairlift at Vail Mountain with a new high-speed six-passenger chairlift to increase lift capacity by 30% at an important mid-mountain location. We are very pleased that all of our resorts have had strong openings, with excellent conditions in Colorado, Utah and Tahoe."

Moving on to early ski season indicators, Katz said, "Our sales of season passes continue to deliver outstanding results.  As we approach the end of our selling period, season pass sales are up approximately 13% in units and 19% in sales dollars through December 5, 2015 compared to the prior year period ending December 6, 2014 (excluding Perisher Freedom Pass and Epic Australia Pass sales in both periods). We are seeing very solid sales growth in our Colorado and Utah markets and results in Northern California are in line with last year.  However, our strong overall results are being driven by sales to destination guests who were responsible for more than three-quarters of our total growth and now represent approximately 44% of our total pass holders.  Further, for the 2015/2016 season, we expect to sell over 500,000 season passes, including all of our pass products from around the world, which is an incredible accomplishment that speaks to the loyalty and engagement our Company has created with our guests.  As we head into the season in the U.S., we are seeing lodging bookings across our resorts largely trending ahead of this time last year.  Consistent with our last update, international bookings are soft, particularly from Canada, the U.K. and Brazil, given the strong U.S. dollar, but these trends are more than offset by strength in domestic bookings and we don't expect currency challenges to have a material impact on our results relative to our guidance.  Australia is currently our best performing international market and we are seeing a number of signs that our acquisition of Perisher will allow us to outperform broader industry trends.  Based on historical averages, less than 50% of the bookings for the winter season have been made by this time."

Return of Capital

The Company declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.6225 per share of common stock that will be payable on January 12, 2016 to shareholders of record on December 28, 2015.

In the first quarter of fiscal 2016, the Company repurchased 377,830 shares at an average price of $105.85 for a total of $40 million. The Company's Board of Directors also approved an increase of 1.5 million authorized shares in the repurchase program, bringing the total shares available for repurchase to approximately 2.2 million under the current authorization.

Outlook

Commenting on fiscal 2016 guidance, Katz continued, "Given our first quarter results and the indicators we are seeing for the upcoming season, we are even more confident in our outlook for fiscal 2016.  That said, the ski season has just begun (in the U.S.), with our primary earnings period still in front of us, and we are reiterating our Resort Reported EBITDA guidance for fiscal 2016 that was included in our September earnings release."

Regarding calendar year 2016 capital expenditures, Katz said, "We remain committed to reinvesting in our resorts, creating an experience of a lifetime for our guests and generating strong returns for our shareholders.  While we will announce our complete capital plan for calendar year 2016 in March 2016, we are pleased to announce two signature projects that we intend to construct in 2016 for the 2016/2017 ski season.  The first project is the addition of a new 500 seat restaurant at the top of the Peak 7 chairlift at Breckenridge.  Already one of the most popular resorts in North America, the new restaurant will dramatically improve the dining experience on the mountain, particularly given its location directly adjacent to our new Peak 6 terrain.  The second project is the upgrade of the Sun Up chairlift at Vail Mountain (Chair 17), from a fixed grip triple to a high-speed four-passenger chairlift.  This new chairlift will significantly improve the ski experience in Sun Up Bowl and more quickly move skiers and riders to and from the Back Bowls and Blue Sky Basin.  With this new addition, every major chairlift on Vail Mountain will be a high-speed chairlift.  Both of these projects are subject to regulatory approvals.  We expect our total resort capital plan for calendar 2016, including these two projects but excluding investments in summer activities, will total approximately $100 million which is consistent with our long-term capital guidance."

Statement Concerning Non-GAAP Financial Measures

When reporting financial results, we use the terms Reported EBITDA, Reported EBITDA excluding the non-cash gain on the Park City litigation settlement, Net Debt, Net Real Estate Cash Flow, Lodging net revenue excluding payroll cost reimbursement, and Lodging operating expense excluding reimbursed payroll costs, which are not financial measures under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). We define Reported EBITDA as segment net revenue less segment operating expense plus or minus segment equity investment income or loss plus gain on litigation settlement, and for the Real Estate segment plus gain on sale of real property. In this release, we also separately present Reported EBITDA excluding the non-cash gain on the Park City litigation settlement. We define Net Debt as long-term debt plus long-term debt due within one year less cash and cash equivalents. For the Real Estate segment, we define Net Real Estate Cash Flow as Real Estate Reported EBITDA, plus non-cash real estate cost of sales, non-cash stock-based compensation expense, and change in real estate deposits and recovery of previously incurred project costs/land basis less investment in real estate. For the Lodging segment, we primarily focus on Lodging net revenue excluding payroll cost reimbursement and Lodging operating expense excluding reimbursed payroll costs as the reimbursements are made based upon the costs incurred with no added margin, as such the revenue and corresponding expense have no effect on our Lodging Reported EBITDA, which we use to evaluate Lodging segment performance. Please see "Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below for more information.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Reported EBITDA, Reported EBITDA excluding the non-cash gain on the Park City litigation settlement, Net Debt, and Net Real Estate Cash Flow are not measures of financial performance under GAAP, and they might not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Reported EBITDA, Reported EBITDA excluding the non-cash gain on the Park City litigation settlement, 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 including net income (loss), net change in cash and cash equivalents or other financial statement data.

Reported EBITDA and Net Real Estate Cash Flow have been presented herein as measures 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 primarily uses Reported EBITDA based targets in evaluating performance. In this release, the Company also separately presents Reported EBITDA excluding the non-cash gain on the Park City litigation settlement. 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.

Presented below is a reconciliation of Reported EBITDA to net loss attributable to Vail Resorts, Inc. calculated in accordance with GAAP for the three months ended October 31, 2015 and 2014.
