Lucky Strike Entertainment Corporation

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(In thousands, except share and per share data)

(Unaudited)

(1) Description of Business and Significant Accounting Policies

Lucky Strike Entertainment Corporation, a Delaware corporation, and its subsidiaries (referred to herein as, the “Company”, “Lucky Strike Entertainment”, “Lucky Strike”, “we,” “us” and “our”) is one of the world’s premier operators of location-based entertainment. Effective December 12, 2024, the company changed its name from Bowlero Corporation to Lucky Strike Entertainment Corporation and its stock ticker symbol changed from NYSE: BOWL to NYSE: LUCK, further emphasizing the brand’s evolution and commitment to offering a broader range of entertainment experiences, expanding beyond traditional bowling and positioning Lucky Strike Entertainment as a premier entertainment destination.

The Company operates location-based entertainment venues under different brand names. Our AMF and Bowl America branded locations are traditional bowling centers, while the Bowlero and Lucky Strike branded locations offer a more upscale entertainment concept with lounge seating, enhanced food and beverage offerings, and more robust customer service for individuals and group events. Additionally, within the brands, there exists a spectrum where some AMF branded locations are more upscale and some Bowlero branded locations are more traditional. The Company also operates other forms of location-based entertainment, such as Octane Raceway, Raging Waves water park, and Boomers Parks (inclusive of Big Kahuna’s water park). All of our locations, regardless of branding, are managed in a fully integrated and consistent basis because all of our locations are in the same business of operating location-based entertainment.

Basis of Presentation: The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted. In the opinion of management, these financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods indicated. Our quarterly financial data should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024.

Change in Presentation: In the first quarter of fiscal year 2025, the Company made a change to its condensed consolidated statements of operations presentation in order to enhance our disclosures by disaggregating previously combined revenues and costs of revenues, reclassifying depreciation and amortization to be a separate financial statement line item, and reclassifying certain amounts to selling, general, and administrative expenses. The change in presentation will enhance the comparability of our financial statements with industry peers and present a more detailed picture of our operations. Certain prior period amounts in the condensed consolidated statements of operations have been reclassified to conform with the current period presentation. The reclassifications made had no impact to revenue, income (loss) from operations, net income (loss), earnings (loss) per share, retained earnings or other components of equity or net assets.

Principles of Consolidation: The condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes include the accounts of Lucky Strike and the subsidiaries it controls. Control is determined based on ownership rights or, when applicable, based on whether the Company is considered to be the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity. We use the equity method to account for investments in which we have the ability to exercise significant influence over the investee’s operating and financial policies, or in which we hold a partnership or limited liability company interest in an entity with specific ownership accounts, unless we have virtually no influence over the investee’s operating and financial policies. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates: The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the balance sheets, statements of operations and accompanying notes. Significant estimates made by management include, but are not limited to, cash flow projections; the fair value of assets and liabilities in acquisitions; derivatives with hedge accounting; share-based compensation; depreciation and impairment of long-lived assets; carrying amount and recoverability analyses of property and equipment, assets held for sale, goodwill and other intangible assets; valuation of deferred tax assets and liabilities and income tax uncertainties; and reserves for litigation, claims and self-insurance costs. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Table of Contents

Index to Notes

Fair-value Estimates: We have various financial instruments included in our financial statements. Financial instruments are carried in our financial statements at either cost or fair value. We estimate fair value of assets and liabilities using the following hierarchy using the highest level possible:

Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical assets and liabilities.

Level 2: Observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted on active markets, but are corroborated by market data.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs are used when little or no market data is available.

Cash and Cash Equivalents: The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity date of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The Company accepts a range of debit and credit cards, and these transactions are generally transmitted to a bank for reimbursement within 24 hours. The payments due from the banks for these debit and credit card transactions are generally received, or settled, within 24 to 48 hours of the transmission date. The Company considers all debit and credit card transactions that settle in less than seven days to be cash equivalents.

Equity Method Investments: The aggregate carrying amounts of our equity method investments was $ 25,860 and $ 25,848 as of March 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024, respectively, and are included as a component of Other Assets in our accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. Substantially all of our equity method investments consist of a limited partner interest in a subsidiary of VICI Properties Inc. (“VICI”). Equity method investments are adjusted to recognize (1) our share, based on percentage ownership or other contractual basis, of the investee’s net income or loss after the date of investment, (2) additional contributions made or distributions received, (3) amortization of the recorded investment that exceeds our share of the book value of the investee’s net assets, and (4) impairments resulting from other-than-temporary declines in fair value. Cash distributions received from our equity method investments are considered returns on investment and presented within operating activities in the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows to the extent of cumulative equity in net income of the investee. Additional distributions in excess of cumulative equity are considered returns of our investment and are presented as investing activities.

Derivatives: We are exposed to interest rate risk. To manage this risk, we entered into interest rate collar derivative transactions associated with a portion of our outstanding debt. The interest rate collars, which are designated for accounting purposes as cash flow hedges, establish a cap and floor on the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR). The Company's interest rate collars expire on March 31, 2026.

For financial derivative instruments that are designated as a cash flow hedge for accounting purposes, the effective portion of the gain or loss on the financial derivative instrument is reported as a component of other comprehensive income and reclassified into earnings in the same line item associated with the forecasted transaction, and in the same period or periods during which the forecasted transaction affects earnings. Gains and losses on the financial derivative representing either hedge ineffectiveness or hedge components excluded from the assessment of effectiveness are recognized in current earnings.

The interest rate collar agreements effectively modified our exposure to interest rate risk by converting a portion of our interest payments on floating rate debt to include a cap and floor, thus reducing the impact of interest rate changes on future interest expense. See Note 7 - Debt for more information.

Net Income (loss) Per Share Attributable to Common Stockholders: We compute net income (loss) per share of Class A common stock and Class B common stock under the two-class method. Holders of Class A common stock and Class B common stock have equal rights to the earnings of the Company. Our participating securities include the Series A preferred stock that have a non-forfeitable right to dividends in the event that a dividend is paid on common stock, but do not participate in losses, and thus are not included in a two-class method in periods of loss. In periods where the Company reports a net loss, all potentially dilutive securities are excluded from the calculation of the diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders as their effect is antidilutive and accordingly, basic and diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders will be the same. Dilutive securities include Series A preferred stock, earnouts, stock options, and restricted stock units (“RSUs”). See Note 14 - Net Income (Loss) Per Share .

Emerging Growth Company Status: The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (“JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements.

Table of Contents

Index to Notes

Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of our financial statements with those of another public company that is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company that has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards: In November 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-07, Segment Reporting (“Topic 280”) Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures , which requires p ublic entities, including those with a single reportable segment, to provide all the disclosures required by this standard and all existing segment disclosures required by Topic 280 on an interim and annual basis, including new requirements to disclose significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), which is our chief executive officer (“CEO”) and included within the reported measure(s) of a segment's profit or loss, the amount and composition of any other segment items, the title and position of the CODM, and how the CODM uses the reported measure(s) of a segment's profit or loss to assess performance and decide how to allocate resources. Further, it requires that all annual disclosures about a reportable segment’s profit or loss and assets currently required by Topic 280 be provided in interim periods. ASU 2023-07 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2024, applied retrospectively. We will adopt the standard in our fiscal year 2025 annual financial statements. The adoption of the standard will impact certain segment reporting disclosures in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (“Topic 740”): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which includes amendments that further enhance income tax disclosures through the standardization and disaggregation of rate reconciliation categories and income taxes paid in both domestic and foreign jurisdictions. ASU 2023-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024 and is to be applied prospectively, with early adoption and retrospective application permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of this standard to our consolidated financial statements.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement–Reporting Comprehensive Income–Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (“ASU 2024-03”), which requires the disaggregation of certain expenses in the notes of the financials, to provide enhanced transparency into the expense captions presented on the face of the income statement. ASU 2024-03 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027 and may be applied either prospectively or retrospectively. We are currently evaluating the impact of this standard to our consolidated financial statements.

(2) Business Acquisitions

Acquisitions: The Company continually evaluates potential acquisitions, which can be either business combinations or asset purchases, that strategically fit within the Company’s overall growth strategy in order to expand our market share in key geographic areas and to improve our ability to leverage our fixed costs.

2025 Business Acquisitions: For business combinations, the Company allocates the consideration transferred to the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their preliminary estimated fair values as of the acquisition date. We estimate the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed using valuation techniques, such as the income, cost and market approaches. During the nine months ended March 30, 2025, the Company had three acquisitions in which we acquired nine locations for a total consideration of $ 50,565 . The Company is still in the process of finalizing its valuation analyses for the acquisitions. The remaining fair value estimates include working capital, intangibles, property and equipment, and operating lease assets and liabilities. If necessary, for business combinations, we will continue to refine our estimates throughout the permitted measurement period, which may result in corresponding offsets to goodwill. We expect to finalize the valuations as soon as possible, but no later than one year after the respective acquisition dates.

(5) Leases

The Company leases various assets under non-cancellable operating and finance leases. These assets include location-based entertainment venues, office space, vehicles, and equipment.

Most of our leases contain payments for some or all of the following: base rent, contingent rent, common area maintenance, insurance, real-estate taxes, and other operating expenses. Rental payments are subject to escalation depending on future changes in designated indices or based on pre-determined amounts agreed upon at lease inception.

The following table summarizes the Company’s debt structure as of March 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024:


	March 30, 2025		June 30, 2024
First Lien Credit Facility Term Loan (Maturing February 8, 2028 and bearing variable rate interest; 7.82 % and 8.80 % at March 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024, respectively)	$	1,282,370	$	1,138,500
Other Equipment Loans	12,938		13,700
	1,295,308		1,152,200

Current portion of unamortized financing costs	3,866		3,361
Current maturities of long-term debt	( 14,093 )		( 12,524 )
Total long-term debt	$	1,273,231	$	1,129,523

Term Loan: Under the Company’s First Lien Credit Agreement, as amended (the “First Lien Credit Agreement”), the Company has made term loans consisting of $ 1,150,000 of aggregate initial principal amount of debt outstanding (the “Term Loan”). The Term Loan matures on February 8, 2028 and is repaid on a quarterly basis in principal payments of $ 2,875 , which began on September 29, 2023. The Term Loan bears interest at a rate per annum equal to the Adjusted Term SOFR plus 3.50 %. Interest is due on the last day of the interest period. The interest period, as agreed upon between the Company and its lender, can be either one , three , or six months in length. As of March 30, 2025, the interest period is one month .

On December 17, 2024, the Company entered into a Twelfth Amendment (the “Twelfth Amendment”) to the First Lien Credit Agreement. The Twelfth Amendment provided for an incremental term loan in the amount of $ 150,000 . In addition, the Twelfth Amendment increased the quarterly principal payments beginning on December 31, 2024 from $ 2,875 to $ 3,255 . Proceeds from the Twelfth Amendment were used to repay all amounts outstanding on the Revolver and for general corporate purposes. The Company accounted for this transaction as a debt modification, which was not substantial. Therefore, the Company did not incur any gain or loss relating to the modification.

Revolver: Under the First Lien Credit Agreement, the Company has access to a senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Revolver”). As of March 30, 2025, the Revolver commitment is $ 335,000 , which was increased by $ 50,000 in connection with the Company entering into an Eleventh Amendment to the First Lien Credit Agreement on August 23, 2024. Any outstanding balance on the Revolver is due on December 15, 2026. Interest on borrowings under the Revolver is based on the Adjusted Term SOFR.

First Lien Credit Agreement Covenants: Obligations owed under the First Lien Credit Agreement are secured by a first priority security interest on substantially all assets of Lucky Strike. and the guarantor subsidiaries. The First Lien Credit Agreement contains customary events of default, restrictions on indebtedness, liens, investments, asset dispositions, dividends and affirmative and negative covenants. The Company is subject to a financial covenant requiring that the First Lien Leverage Ratio (as defined in the First Lien Credit Agreement) not exceed 6.00 :1.00 as of the end of any fiscal quarter if amounts outstanding on the Revolver exceed an amount equal to 35 % of the aggregate Revolver commitment (subject to certain exclusions) at the end of such fiscal quarter. In addition, payment of borrowings under the Revolver may be accelerated if there is an event of default, and Lucky Strike would no longer be permitted to borrow additional funds under the Revolver while a default or event of default were outstanding.

Letters of Credit: Outstanding standby letters of credit as of March 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024 totaled $ 22,422 and $ 15,834 , respectively, and are guaranteed by JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A. The available amount of the Revolver is reduced by the outstanding standby letters of credit.

Other Equipment Loan: On August 19, 2022, the Company entered into an equipment loan agreement for a principal amount of $ 15,350 with JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A.. The loan matures August 19, 2029 and bears a fixed interest rate of 6.24 %. The loan is repaid on a monthly basis in fixed payments of $ 153 plus a final payment at maturity. The loan obligation is secured by a lien on the equipment.

Covenant Compliance: The Company was in compliance with all debt covenants as of March 30, 2025.

Interest rate collars: The Company entered into two interest rate collars effective as of March 31, 2023 for an aggregate notional amount of our Term Loan of $ 800,000 . The collar hedging strategy stabilizes interest rate fluctuations by setting both a floor and a cap. The hedge transactions have a trade and hedge designation date of April 4, 2023. The

Table of Contents

Index to Notes

hedge transactions, each for a notional amount of $ 400,000 , provide for interest rate collars. The interest rate collars establish a floor on SOFR of 0.9429 % and 0.9355 %, respectively, and a cap on SOFR of 5.50 %. The interest rate collars have a maturity date of March 31, 2026.

The fair value of the collar agreements as of March 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024 was a liability of $ 39 and an asset of $ 696 , respectively, and is included within the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Since SOFR was within the collar cap and floor rates, there was no interest impact on the condensed consolidated statement of operations.

(8) Income Taxes

The Company uses the estimated annual effective tax rate method for calculating its tax provision in interim periods, which represents the Company's best estimate of the effective tax rate expected for the full year. Certain items, including those deemed to be unusual, infrequent or that cannot be reliably estimated (discrete items), are excluded from the estimated annual effective tax rate, and the related tax expense or benefit is reported in the same period as the related item. The Company’s effective tax rate for the nine months ended March 30, 2025 was ( 5 )%, which differs from the US federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to the change in fair value of the earnout liability, permanent differences, and other discrete tax items. The Company’s effective tax rate for the nine months ended March 31, 2024 was ( 11 )%, which differs from the US federal statutory rate of 21% due to the change in fair value of the earnout liability, permanent differences, and items associated with the VICI Transaction, which are treated as discrete tax items.

(9) Commitments and Contingencies

From time to time, we are involved in various inquiries, investigations, claims, lawsuits and other legal proceedings that are incidental to the conduct of our business. These matters typically involve claims from customers, employees or other third parties involved in operational issues common to the retail, restaurant and entertainment industries. Such matters typically represent actions with respect to contracts, intellectual property, taxation, employment, employee benefits, personal injuries and other matters. A number of such claims may exist at any given time and there are currently a number of claims and legal proceedings pending against us. While it is not feasible to predict the outcome of all claims and legal proceedings and exposures with certainty, management believes that their ultimate disposition should not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

(10) Earnouts

There were 11,418,357 unvested earnout shares outstanding as of March 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024.

The outstanding unvested earnout shares will vest if the closing share price of Lucky Strike’s Class A common stock equals or exceeds $ 17.50 per share for any 10 trading days within any consecutive 20 trading day period that occurs from December 15, 2021 through December 15, 2026.

All but 41,364 earnout shares are classified as a liability and changes in the fair value of the earnout shares are recognized in the statement of operations. Those earnout shares not classified as a liability are classified as equity compensation to employees and recognized as compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the expected term or upon the contingency being met.

See Note 11 - Fair Value of Financial Instruments for a summary of changes in the estimated fair value of the earnout shares for the period ended March 30, 2025 and March 31, 2024.

(11) Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Dividends accumulate on a cumulative basis on a 360 -day year commencing from the issue date. The dividend rate is fixed at 5.5 % per annum on a liquidation preference of $ 1,000 per share. Payment dates are June 30 and December 31 of each year with a record date of June 15 for the June 30 payment date and December 15 for the December 31 payment date. Declared dividends will be paid in cash if the Company declares the dividend to be paid in cash.

Overview

Lucky Strike Entertainment is one of the world’s premier operators of location-based entertainment. The Company operates traditional bowling locations and more upscale entertainment concepts with lounge seating, arcades, enhanced food and beverage offerings, and more robust customer service for individuals and group events, as well as hosting and overseeing professional and non-professional bowling tournaments and related broadcasting. The Company also operates other forms of location-based entertainment, such as Octane Raceway, Raging Waves water park, and Boomers Parks (inclusive of Big Kahuna’s water park).

The Company remains focused on creating long-term shareholder value through continued organic growth, the conversion and upgrading of locations to more upscale entertainment concepts offering a broader range of offerings, the opening of new locations and acquisitions.

Recent Developments

Lucky Strike’s results for the nine months ended March 30, 2025 exhibited the expected total revenue growth and shift of focus to internal initiatives while also increasing liquidity in anticipation of what we believe will be an increased acquisition environment during the 2025 fiscal year. To highlight the Company’s recent activity during the nine months ended March 30, 2025:

• We reported total revenue growth of 3%.

• We rebranded the Company from Bowlero to Lucky Strike Entertainment.

• We completed and opened four newly-built Lucky Strike locations in prime markets.

• We completed the acquisitions of Boomers Parks, Spectrum Entertainment Complex, and Adventure Park to further enhance our location-based entertainment offerings. We also signed a definitive agreement to acquire Shipwreck Island water park, which closed in April.

• We acquired 66 acres of land adjacent to Raging Waves water park for further expansion.

• We increased our term loan by $150,000.

Trends

There are a number of factors that could materially affect our future profitability, including changing economic conditions with the resulting impact on our sales, profitability, and capital spending, changes in our debt levels and applicable interest rates, and increasing prices of labor and inventory, which includes food and beverage costs. Additionally, sales and results of operations could be impacted by acquisitions and restructuring projects. Restructuring can include various projects, including closure of locations not performing well, cost reductions through staffing reductions, and optimizing and allocating resources to improve profitability.

Our operating results fluctuate seasonally and may also be affected by calendar shifts of holiday or seasonal periods. We typically generate our highest sales volumes during the third quarter of each fiscal year due to the timing of leagues, holidays and changing weather conditions. School operating schedules, holidays and weather conditions may also affect our sales volumes in some operating regions differently than others. Because of the seasonality of our business, results for any quarter are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be achieved for our full fiscal year.

Revenues: For the quarter ended March 30, 2025, revenues totaled $339,882 and represented a slight increase of $2,212, or 1%, over the same period of last fiscal year. The slight increase is primarily attributable to an increase in revenue from newly acquired or leased locations, which was partially offset by a decline in revenues on a same-store basis.

The following table summarizes our revenues on a same-store-basis for the quarter ended March 30, 2025 as compared to the corresponding period last fiscal year:


	Three Months Ended
(in thousands)	March 30, 2025		March 31, 2024		Change		% Change
Revenues on a same-store basis (1)	$	313,309	$	331,984	$	(18,675)	(6)	%
Revenues for media, new and closed locations	25,937		4,416		21,521		*
Service fee revenue (2)	636		1,270		(634)		(50)	%
Total revenues	$	339,882	$	337,670	$	2,212	1	%

(1) Revenues from 348 locations are included in the same-store comparable location base for the comparison in the above table. In our previously filed Form 10-Q for the three months ended March 31, 2024, revenues from 322 locations were included in the same-store revenue.

(2) Service fee revenue is a mandatory gratuity passed through to the employee, which is a non-contributor to earnings and is being phased out across our locations.

*Represents a change equal to or in excess of 100% or one that is not meaningful.

Same-store revenues includes revenue from locations that are open in periods presented (open in both the current period and the prior period being reported) and excludes revenues from locations that are not open in periods presented such as acquired new locations or locations closed for upgrades, renovations or other such reasons, as well as media revenues and service fee revenues. The decrease in same-store revenues during the quarter ended March 30, 2025 was primarily attributable to a reduction in our corporate event business relative to the same period of last fiscal year.

Location operating costs: Location operating costs primarily consist of rent, utilities, insurance, repairs & maintenance, property taxes, supplies, marketing, and other costs associated with Company locations. Location operating costs include both fixed and variable components and therefore do not directly correlate with revenue.

Location operating costs increased $5,802, or 7%. Increases in costs were in various areas including advertising, property taxes, insurance, and utilities. The increase in costs was mainly attributable to location count growth from acquisitions and lease agreements. For instance, Raging Waves water park and Boomers Parks location operating costs contributed $4,300 to the increase. The increase in costs were partially offset by cost management initiatives, which resulted in a $1,900 decrease in repairs and maintenance expense. Location operating costs as a percent of revenues increased from 26% during the third quarter of fiscal 2024 to 27% during the third quarter of fiscal 2025, mainly due to the aforementioned location count growth and fixed costs.

Location payroll and benefit costs: Location payroll and benefit costs consist of employee costs that directly support location operations. Location payroll and benefit costs decreased $3,028, or 4%. The decrease in location payroll and benefit costs reflects the impact of the ongoing staffing optimization initiative. This is further illustrated by the decrease as a percent of revenues from 23% during the third quarter of fiscal 2024 to 22% during the third quarter of fiscal 2025. The decrease driven by staffing optimization was partially offset by location count growth. For instance, Raging Waves water park and Boomers Parks added $2,400 of location payroll and benefit costs.

Location food & beverage costs: Location food & beverage costs increased $449, or 2%. The increase in location food & beverage costs is mainly attributable to increased food & beverage revenue as compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2024.

Selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”): SG&A expenses increased $4,121 or 11%. The increase is attributable to share-based compensation expense, which contributed approximately $4,600 to the increase in SG&A expenses. The increase in share-based compensation expense is primarily due to the non-recurring settlement of equity awards related to the retirement of a long-time executive of the Company, which resulted in an additional $4,809 of share-based compensation expense. Excluding the impact of the non-recurring settlement of equity awards, SG&A expenses would have decreased as a result of ongoing cost management initiatives at corporate. For instance, professional fees and SG&A labor decreased approximately $1,100 and $400, respectively.

Depreciation and amortization: Depreciation and amortization increased $3,998 or 11%. The increase in depreciation and amortization reflects the added depreciable assets, finite-lived intangible assets, and finance leases through acquisitions and capital expenditures.

Index to Notes

Interest expense, net: Interest expense primarily relates to interest on debt, finance leases, and financing obligations. Interest expense increased $2,524, or 5%. The higher interest expense is primarily attributable to the $150,000 incremental term loan obtained in the second quarter of fiscal 2025 coupled with lower interest income as compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2024.

Change in fair value of earnouts: The impact on the statement of operations during the quarter ended March 30, 2025 is due to the decrease in the fair value of the earnouts, which mainly reflects the decrease in the Company’s stock price in the current quarter.

Income Taxes: Income tax expense and deferred tax assets and liabilities reflect management’s assessment of the Company’s tax position. The effective tax rate of 58% for the quarter ended March 30, 2025 was primarily attributed to the change in fair value of the earnout liability, and permanent differences.

Revenues: For the nine months ended March 30, 2025, revenues totaled $900,151 and represented an increase of $29,405, or 3%, over the same period of last fiscal year. The increase in revenues is primarily attributable to revenue from newly acquired or leased locations, which was partially offset by a decline in revenues on a same-store basis.

(2) Service fee revenue is a mandatory gratuity passed through to the employee, which is a non-contributor to earnings and is being phased out across our locations.

*Represents a change equal to or in excess of 100% or one that is not meaningful.

The decrease in same-store revenues during the nine months ended March 30, 2025 was primarily attributable to a reduction in our corporate event business relative to the same period of last fiscal year.

Location operating costs: Location operating costs increased $22,514, or 9%. Increases in costs were in most areas and include amusement costs, advertising, rent, property taxes, and utilities. The increase in costs was mainly attributable to location count growth from acquisitions and lease agreements. For instance, Raging Waves water park and Boomers Parks location operating costs contributed $10,600 to the increase. The increase in costs were partially offset by cost management initiatives with reductions noted in supplies and repairs and maintenance of $2,200 and $3,500, respectively. Location operating costs as a percent of revenues increased from 27% during the third quarter of fiscal 2024 to 29% during the third quarter of fiscal 2025, mainly due to the aforementioned location count growth and fixed costs.

Location payroll and benefit costs: Location payroll and benefit costs decreased $5,512, or 3%. The decrease in location payroll and benefit costs reflects the impact of the ongoing staffing optimization initiative. This is further illustrated by the decrease as a percent of revenues from 25% during the third quarter of fiscal 2024 to 24% during the third quarter of fiscal 2025. The decrease driven by staffing optimization was partially offset by location count growth. For instance, Raging Waves water park and Boomers Parks added $6,300 of location payroll and benefit costs.

Location food & beverage costs: Location food & beverage costs increased $3,599, or 5%. The increase in location food & beverage costs is mainly attributable to increased food & beverage revenue as compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2024.

Selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”): SG&A expenses decreased $643 or 1%. The decrease is mainly attributable to a decrease in professional fees, which contributed approximately $10,000 to the decrease in SG&A expenses. This was partially offset by an increase in share-based compensation expense, which increased approximately $8,200. The decrease in professional fees is mainly attributable to less acquisition activity as compared to the same period of the prior year and cost management initiatives at corporate. The cost management initiatives at corporate also resulted in a decrease in SG&A labor of approximately $900. The increase in share-based compensation expense is primarily due to the non-recurring settlement of equity awards related to the retirement of a long-time executive of the Company, which resulted in an additional $4,809 of share-based compensation expense. This was coupled with less forfeiture activity as compared to the same period of fiscal 2024 and an increase in share-based awards granted thus far in fiscal 2025.

Depreciation and amortization: Depreciation and amortization increased $11,676 or 11%. The increase in depreciation and amortization reflects the added depreciable assets, finite-lived intangible assets, and finance leases through acquisitions and capital expenditures.

Interest expense, net: Interest expense increased $16,304, or 12%. The higher interest expense is primarily the result of an added financing obligation within the second quarter of fiscal 2024, the $150,000 incremental term loan obtained in the second quarter of fiscal 2025, and lower interest income as compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2024.

Change in fair value of earnouts: The impact on the statement of operations during nine months ended March 30, 2025 is due to the decrease in the fair value of the earnouts, which mainly reflects the decrease in the Company’s stock price in the current quarter.

Income Taxes: Income tax expense and deferred tax assets and liabilities reflect management’s assessment of the Company’s tax position. The effective tax rate of (5)% for nine months ended March 30, 2025 was primarily attributed to the change in fair value of the earnout liability, permanent differences, and other discrete tax items.

Non-GAAP measure

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that is not in accordance with, or an alternative to, measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. The Company believes certain financial measures which meet the definition of non-GAAP financial measures provide important supplemental information. The Company considers Adjusted EBITDA as an important financial measure because it provides a financial measure of the quality of the Company’s earnings. Other companies may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do, which might limit its usefulness as a comparative measure. Adjusted EBITDA is used by management in addition to and in conjunction with the results presented in accordance with GAAP. We have presented Adjusted EBITDA solely as a supplemental disclosure because we believe it allows for a more complete analysis of results of operations and assists investors and analysts in comparing our operating performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance, such as Interest Expense, Income Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization, Impairment Charges, Share-based Compensation, EBITDA from Closed Locations, Foreign Currency Exchange Loss (Gain), Asset Disposition Loss (Gain), Transactional and other advisory costs, Changes in the value of earnouts, and Other. Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP.

Refer to notes below for additional details concerning the respective items for Adjusted EBITDA.

The following table provides a reconciliation from net income to Adjusted EBITDA for each reporting period:


	Three Months Ended				Nine Months Ended

Adjusted EBITDA	$	117,260	$	122,806	$	278,960	$	278,066

Notes to Adjusted EBITDA:

(1) Includes the non-recurring settlement of equity awards related to the retirement of a long-time executive of the Company during the period ended March 30, 2025, which resulted in an additional $4,809 of share-based compensation expense.

(2) The closed location adjustment is to remove EBITDA for closed locations. Closed locations are those locations that are closed for a variety of reasons, including permanent closure, newly acquired or built locations prior to opening, locations closed for renovation or rebranding and conversion. If a location is not open on the last day of the reporting period, it will be considered closed for that reporting period. If the location is closed on the first day of the reporting period for permanent closure, the location will be considered closed for that reporting period.

(3) The adjustment for transaction costs and other advisory costs is to remove charges incurred in connection with any transaction, including mergers, acquisitions, refinancing, amendment or modification to indebtedness, dispositions and costs in connection with an initial public offering, in each case, regardless of whether consummated.

(4) The adjustment for changes in the value of earnouts is to remove of the impact of the revaluation of the earnouts. Changes in the fair value of the earnout liability is recognized in the statement of operations. Decreases in the liability will have a favorable impact on the statement of operations and increases in the liability will have an unfavorable impact.

(5) Other includes the following related to transactions that do not represent ongoing or frequently recurring activities as part of the Company’s operations: (i) non-routine expenses, net of recoveries for matters outside the normal course of business, (ii) costs incurred that have been expensed associated with obtaining an equity method investment in a subsidiary of VICI, (iii) severance expense, and (iv) other individually de minimis expenses. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We manage our liquidity through assessing available cash-on-hand, our ability to generate cash and our ability to borrow or otherwise raise capital to fund operating, investing and financing activities.

A core tenet of our long-term strategy is to grow the size and scale of the Company in order to improve our operating profit margins through leveraging our fixed costs. As such, one of the Company’s known cash requirements is for capital expenditures related to the construction of new locations and upgrading and converting existing locations. We believe our financial position, generation of cash, available cash-on-hand, existing credit facility, and access to potentially obtain additional financing from sale-lease-back transactions or other sources will provide sufficient capital resources to fund our operational requirements, capital expenditures, and material short and long-term commitments for the foreseeable future. We also plan to use available cash-on-hand to fund our share repurchase program, which was implemented as a method to return value to our shareholders. However, there are a number of factors that may hinder our ability to access these capital resources, including but not limited to our degree of leverage, and potential borrowing restrictions imposed by our lenders. See “ Risk Factors ” included in our previously filed Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024 for further information.

At March 30, 2025, we had approximately $79,088 of available cash and cash equivalents.

The following compares the primary categories of the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the period ended March 30, 2025 and March 31, 2024:


	Nine Months Ended				$ Change		% Change
(in thousands)	March 30, 2025		March 31, 2024
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	154,767	$	148,098	$	6,669	5	%
Net cash used in investing activities	(166,412)		(285,960)		119,548		42	%
Net cash provided by financing activities	23,925		154,287		(130,362)		(84)	%
Effect of exchange rate changes on cash	(164)		371		(535)		*
Net change in cash and cash equivalents	$	12,116	$	16,796	$	(4,680)	(28)	%

*Represents a change equal to or in excess of 100% or one that is not meaningful.

Operating activities provided $154,767 as compared to $148,098 during the same period of the prior fiscal year. The increase in cash provided by operating activities primarily reflects an increase in revenues and lease incentive receipts partially offset by higher interest expense.

Investing activities used $166,412 as compared to $285,960 during the same period of the prior fiscal year. The decrease in cash used in investing activities mainly reflects a reduction in capital expenditures and less acquisition activity as compared to the same period of the prior year. This was partially offset by the purchase of 66 acres of land adjacent to Raging Waves water park for $9,400.

Financing activities provided $23,925 as compared to $154,287 during the same period of the prior fiscal year. The decrease in cash provided by financing activities primarily reflects the proceeds from the transaction with VICI during the same period of the prior year, increased cash dividends, and the settlement of equity awards during the nine months ended March 30, 2025. This was partially offset by less share buyback activity as compared to the same period of the prior year and the impact of the $150,000 incremental term loan.

Our contractual obligations primarily include, but are not limited to, debt service, self-insurance liabilities, and leasing arrangements. We believe our sources of liquidity, namely available cash on hand, positive operating cash flows, and access to capital markets will continue to be adequate to meet our contractual obligations, as well as fund working capital, planned capital expenditures, location acquisitions, and execute purchases under our share repurchase program.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Our critical accounting estimates are discussed in Part II, Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” of our fiscal year 2024 Form 10-K under “Critical Accounting Estimates.” There have been no significant changes in our critical accounting estimates during the quarter ended March 30, 2025.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

See Note 1 - Description of Business and Significant Accounting Policies of the notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for information regarding new accounting pronouncements.

Emerging Growth Company Accounting Election

We are currently an emerging growth company, as defined in the JOBS Act. Under the JOBS Act, emerging growth companies can delay adopting new or revised accounting standards until such time as those standards apply to private companies. We have elected to use this extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until the earlier of the date we (i) are no longer an emerging growth company or (ii) affirmatively and irrevocably opt out of the extended transition period provided in the JOBS Act. As a result, our financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with new or revised accounting pronouncements as of public company effective dates.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We are exposed to market risk from changes in, among other things, interest rates, credit risk, labor costs, health insurance claims and foreign currency exchange rates, which could impact its results of operations and financial condition. We attempt to address our exposure to these risks through our normal operating and financing activities.

Interest Rate Risk

Under our term and revolving credit facilities, we are exposed to a certain level of interest rate risk. Interest on the principal amount of our borrowings under our revolving credit facility loan accrues at the Adjusted Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate or the Alternate Base Rate, as further described in the credit agreement governing our term and revolving credit facilities. An increase or decrease of 1.0% in the effective interest rate would cause an increase or decrease to interest expense of approximately $12,824 over a twelve month period on our outstanding debt without considering the impact of hedging. The Company entered into two hedging transactions effective as of March 31, 2023 for an aggregate notional amount of our Term Loan of $800,000. The hedge transactions have a trade and hedge designation date of April 4, 2023. The hedge transactions, each for a notional amount of $400,000, provide for interest rate collars. The interest rate collars establish a floor on SOFR of 0.9429% and 0.9355%, respectively, and a cap on SOFR of 5.50%. The interest rate collars have a maturity date of March 31, 2026.

Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject us to significant concentrations of credit risk consist of cash and temporary investments. We are exposed to credit losses in the event of non-performance by counter parties to our financial instruments. We place cash and temporary investments with various high-quality financial institutions. Although we do not obtain collateral or other security to secure these obligations, we periodically monitor the third-party depository institutions that hold our cash and cash equivalents. Our emphasis is primarily on safety and liquidity of principal and secondarily on maximizing yield on those funds.

Commodity Price Risk

We are exposed to market price fluctuation in food, beverage, supplies and other costs such as energy. Given the historical volatility of certain of our food product prices, including proteins, produce, dairy products, and cooking oil, these fluctuations can materially impact our food costs. While our purchasing commitments partially mitigate the risk of such fluctuations, there is no assurance that supply and demand factors such as disease or inclement weather will not cause the prices of the commodities used in our food operations to fluctuate. Additionally, the cost of purchased materials may be influenced by tariffs and other trade regulations which are outside of our control. To the extent that we do not pass along cost increases to our customers, our results of operations may be adversely affected.

Inflation

We experience inflation related to our purchase of certain products that we need to operate our business. This price volatility could potentially have a material impact on our financial condition and/or our results of operations. In order to mitigate price volatility, we monitor price fluctuations and may adjust our prices accordingly, however, our ability to recover higher costs through increased pricing may be limited by the competitive environment in which we operate.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed pursuant to the Exchange Act is properly and timely reported and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that these disclosure controls and procedures are effective as of March 30, 2025.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

*The average price paid per share and dollar value of shares that may yet be purchased under the plan includes any commissions paid to repurchase stock (but excludes any excise taxes).

(1) The company repurchased 1,747,434 shares of Class A common stock as part of an employment separation agreement at a purchase price of $11.54 per share. This repurchase was not part of the Company’s Publicly Announced Repurchase Program. Therefore, this repurchase is included in the Total Number of Class A Shares Purchased and Average Price Paid per Class A Share above, but is excluded from the Total Number of Shares Purchased as Part of Publicly Announced Programs and Dollar Value of Shares That May Yet Be Purchased Under The Publicly Announced Repurchase Program above.
