  • The organic revenue growth reflects underlying growth at both business groups.
  • Year-over-year revenue growth from acquisitions was $2.3 million.
  • Exchange rate variances had a favorable impact on revenue of $5.0 million.
• The declines in adjusted segment operating income, adjusted segment EBITDA and income before other items primarily reflect additional costs and a less favorable mix of business at GES. The year-over-year decline in net income attributable to Viad also reflects a $16.1 million charge as a result of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, which is excluded from our income before other items.
