Current report

Lift revenue is driven by volume and pricing. Pricing is impacted by absolute pricing, as well as both the demographic and geographic mix of guests, which impacts the price points at which various products are purchased. The demographic mix of guests that visit our North American Resorts is divided into two primary categories: (i) out-of-state and international (“Destination”) guests; and (ii) in-state and local (“Local”) guests. The geographic mix depends on levels of visitation to our destination mountain resorts versus our regional ski areas. For the three months ended January 31, 2026, Destination guests comprised approximately 54% of our North American destination mountain resort skier visits (excluding complimentary access), while Local guests comprised approximately 46% of our North American destination mountain resort skier visits (excluding complimentary access), which compares to 52% and 48%, respectively, for the three months ended January 31, 2025. Skier visitation at our regional ski areas is largely comprised of Local guests. Destination guests generally purchase our higher-priced lift tickets (including pass products) and utilize more ancillary services such as ski school, dining and retail/rental, as well as lodging proximate to our mountain resorts. Additionally, Destination guest visitation is less likely to be impacted by changes in the weather during the current season, but may be more impacted by adverse economic conditions, the global geopolitical climate, travel disruptions or weather conditions in the immediately preceding ski season. Local guests tend to be more value-oriented and weather-sensitive.

Current report

We offer a variety of pass products for all of our Resorts, marketed toward both Local and Destination guests. Our pass product offerings range from providing access to one or a combination of our Resorts for a certain number of days to our Epic Pass, which allows pass holders unlimited and unrestricted access to all of our Resorts. The Epic Day Pass is a customizable one to seven day pass product purchased in advance of the season, for those skiers and riders who expect to ski a certain number of days during the season, and which is available in three tiers of resort access offerings. Our pass products provide a compelling value proposition to our guests, which in turn assists us in developing a loyal base of customers who commit to ski at our Resorts generally in advance of the ski season and typically ski more days each season at our Resorts than those guests who do not buy pass products. Additionally, we enter into strategic long-term pass alliance agreements with third-party mountain resorts, which further increase the value proposition of our pass products. For the 2025/2026 ski season, our pass alliances include Telluride Ski Resort in Colorado, Hakuba Valley and Rusutsu Resort in Japan, Resorts of the Canadian Rockies in Canada, Les 3 Vallées in France, Disentis Ski Area and Verbier 4 Vallées in Switzerland, Skirama Dolomiti in Italy and Ski Arlberg, Sölden, Saalbach and Zell am See-Kaprun, Mayrhofen and Hintertux and Silvretta Montafon in Austria. Our pass program drives strong customer loyalty; mitigates exposure to more weather sensitive guests; generates additional ancillary spending; and provides cash flow in advance of winter season operations. In addition, our pass program attracts new guests to our Resorts. All of our pass products, including the Epic Pass and Epic Day Pass, are predominately sold prior to the start of the ski season. Pass product revenue, although primarily collected prior to the ski season, is recognized in the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Operations throughout the ski season on a straight-line basis using the number of skiable days of the season-to-date period relative to the total estimated number of skiable days of the season.

Current report

Lift revenue consists of pass product lift revenue (“pass revenue”) and non-pass product lift revenue (“non-pass revenue”). For the three months ended January 31, 2026 and 2025, approximately 74% and 72%, respectively, of our total lift revenue recognized was derived from pass revenue. Pass revenue recognized year to date, which is primarily recognized in our second fiscal quarter, represents approximately 48% and 49%, of our total North American pass product revenue for the 2025/2026 and 2024/2025 North American ski seasons, respectively, with the remaining North American pass revenue almost entirely recognized as lift revenue in our third fiscal quarter ending April 30. The decrease in the portion of pass product revenue recognized year to date compared to the prior year to date period is primarily the result of historically low snowfall across the western U.S., which resulted in limited natural snow and variable temperatures that resulted in delayed openings. This variability in Resort opening dates resulted in an approximately $8.8 million reduction of recognized pass revenue for the three months ended January 31, 2026 compared to what we would have recognized had our Resorts been able to open on the same schedule as they did in the prior year. This is a timing difference that will largely reverse during our third fiscal quarter.

Current report

The cost structure of our mountain resort operations has a significant fixed component with variable expenses including, but not limited to, land use permit or lease fees, credit card fees, retail/rental cost of sales and labor, ski school labor and dining operations; as such, profit margins can fluctuate greatly based on the level of revenues.

Current report

•Our results for the three months ended January 31, 2026 were negatively impacted by challenging conditions across the Rockies, which experienced the lowest snowfall levels in more than 30 years, and particularly impacted our Colorado and Utah resorts, combined with warmer temperatures, resulting in reduced terrain throughout the quarter. Despite the challenging conditions, our results reflect the strength and stability of our operating model, as we reported only modest declines in lift revenue. We remain focused on the initiatives within our control, including our advanced commitment strategy, continued investments in our resorts and our employees, and progressing key initiatives to optimize visitation, including enhanced marketing initiatives and new products.

Current report

Mountain Reported EBITDA includes $6.1 million and $6.6 million of stock-based compensation expense for the three months ended January 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

Current report

Mountain Reported EBITDA decreased $35.4 million, or 7.7%, primarily due to a decrease in both Local and Destination skier visitation as a result of historically low snowfall across the western U.S., which limited our ability to open terrain and particularly impacted our resorts in the Rockies and Tahoe regions. The decreased skier visitation resulted in decreased non-pass revenue and other ancillary revenues. These decreases were partially offset by (i) decreased labor and labor-related benefits and other variable expenses; and (ii) an increase in North American pass product revenue ($4.0 million), driven by an increase in pass product sales for the 2025/2026 North American ski season compared to the prior year, partially offset by the timing of revenue recognition due to delayed resort openings ($8.8 million, that will largely reverse during our third fiscal quarter). Mountain Reported EBITDA also includes one-time operating expenses attributable to our resource efficiency transformation plan of $1.1 million and $2.6 million for the three months ended January 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

Current report

Lift revenue decreased $19.0 million, or 2.9%, primarily due to a decrease in non-pass revenue of 12.6%, driven by a decrease in both Local and Destination skier visitation, which was impacted by historically low snowfall totals across the western U.S., which limited our ability to open terrain, as well as a decrease in skier visitation at Stevens Pass due to flooding which resulted in a delayed opening. Additionally, non-pass ETP decreased 6.8%, compared to the prior year, driven by an overall shift in the mix of visitation to lower-ETP regions, including the impact of stronger visitation across our eastern U.S. resorts, as compared to our Destination resorts in the western U.S.; and (ii) an overall shift in the mix of lift ticket products. These decreases were partially offset by a $4 million increase in pass product revenue from an increase in sales for the 2025/2026 North American ski season, partially offset by the timing of revenue recognition due to delayed openings.

Current report

Ski school revenue decreased $12.4 million, or 9.3%, dining revenue decreased $6.3 million, or 6.9%, retail/rental revenue decreased $9.1 million, or 6.8%, each primarily driven by decreased visitation at our North American resorts as a result of historically low snowfall totals across the western U.S., which negatively impacted demand for ancillary products.

Current report

Operating expense decreased $17.3 million, or 2.8%, which was primarily attributable to reduced labor hours at our North American Resorts as a result of challenging weather conditions from historically low snowfall across the western U.S., which limited our ability to open terrain and impacted our ability to operate at full capacity, as compared to the prior year, as well as lower variable expenses associated with decreased revenue, and disciplined cost management. Operating expense also includes one-time expenses attributable to our resource efficiency transformation plan of $1.1 million and $2.6 million for the three months ended January 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

Current report

Labor and labor-related benefits decreased $10.8 million, or 4.1%, primarily due to a decrease in labor expense to support decreased North American operations due to challenging weather conditions compared to the prior year. Retail cost of sales decreased $6.3 million, or 15.6%, compared to a decrease in retail sales of 11.2%, reflecting increased margins driven by the mix of retail merchandise purchased by customers, in addition to supply chain compliance and efficiency programs. Resort related fees decreased $1.0 million, or 2.1%, primarily as a result of a decrease in revenues on which those fees are based. General and administrative expense increased $8.1 million, or 8.2%, due to an increase in corporate overhead costs, primarily driven by an increase in marketing and sales expenses from investments in media spending to drive incremental pass product sales and visitation. Other expense decreased $7.3 million, or 4.7%, primarily driven by decreased variable costs associated with the decreased revenue.

Current report

Mountain Reported EBITDA includes $11.5 million and $12.4 million of stock-based compensation expense for the six months ended January 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

Current report

Mountain Reported EBITDA decreased $34.0 million, or 10.8%, due to a decrease in both Local and Destination skier visitation driven by historically low snowfall totals across the western U.S., which particularly impacted our resorts in the Rockies and Tahoe regions, and limited our ability to open terrain. The decreased skier visitation resulted in decreased non-pass revenue and other ancillary revenues. These decreases were partially offset by (i) decreased labor and labor-related benefits and other variable expenses; (ii) an increase in pass product revenue ($8.9 million) from an increase in pass product sales, partially offset by the timing of revenue recognition due to delayed resort openings ($8.8 million, that will largely reverse during our third fiscal quarter); and (iii) an increase from our Australian operations compared to the prior year, which experienced improved visitation, driven by improved weather conditions. Mountain segment results also include the impact of one-time operating expenses attributable to our resource efficiency transformation plan of $4.7 million and $4.6 million for the six months ended January 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively, as well as acquisition and integration related expenses of $0.1 million and $1.0 million for the six months ended January 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

Current report

Labor and labor-related benefits decreased $7.3 million, or 1.9%, primarily due to a decrease in labor expense to support decreased North American operations as a result of challenging weather conditions compared to the prior year, partially offset by an increase in labor expense to support increased Australian operations as a result of improved weather conditions compared to the prior year ($3.4 million). Retail cost of sales decreased $6.4 million, or 11.5%, compared to a decrease in retail sales of 7.9%, reflecting increased margins driven by the mix of retail merchandise purchased by customers, in addition to supply chain compliance and efficiency programs. General and administrative expenses increased $12.0 million, or 6.3%, primarily due to an increase in corporate overhead costs, primarily driven by an increase in marketing and sales expenses from investments in media spending to drive incremental pass product sales and visitation. Other expenses decreased $5.8 million, or 2.4%, primarily due to decreased variable expenses associated with decreased revenues, including dining cost of sales ($2.9 million), supplies ($1.4 million), repairs and maintenance ($1.1 million) and fuel ($0.9 million).

Current report

Lodging Reported EBITDA decreased $2.9 million, or 142.7%, primarily due to decreased demand, including the impact of decreased skier visitation driven by challenging weather conditions, which drove a decrease in ADR and negatively impacted ancillary revenues, as well as a reduction in our inventory of available managed condominium rooms proximate to our mountain resorts.

Current report

Labor and labor related benefits decreased $1.4 million, or 4.4%, primarily due to strong cost control in response to decreased revenue. General and administrative expenses decreased $1.0 million, or 6.4%, primarily due to a decrease in overhead costs, including reservation booking services. Other expenses increased $2.4 million, or 12.3%, primarily due to a reduction in property tax refunds received in the prior year, as well as increases in professional services and repairs and maintenance.

Current report

Lodging segment operating results for the six months ended January 31, 2026 and 2025 are presented by category as follows (in thousands, except ADR and RevPAR):

Current report

Lodging Reported EBITDA includes $1.6 million and $1.7 million of stock-based compensation expense for the six months ended January 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

Current report

Revenue from managed condominium rooms decreased $3.0 million, or 7.7%, primarily due decreased demand at our lodging properties proximate to our North American mountain resorts, including the impact of decreased demand for summer group lodging, as well as decreased skier visitation driven by challenging weather conditions across the western U.S., which drove a decrease in ADR, as well as a net reduction in our inventory of available managed condominium room nights compared to the prior year.

Current report

Labor and labor related benefits decreased $2.0 million, or 2.8%, primarily due to strong cost control in response to decreased revenue. General and administrative expense decreased $1.4 million, or 4.6%, primarily due to a decrease in overhead costs, including reservation booking services. Other expense increased $2.8 million, or 6.0%, primarily due to a reduction in property tax refunds received during the six months ended January 31, 2026.

Current report

Provision for income taxes. The effective tax rate for the three and six months ended January 31, 2026 was 24.2% and 28.4%, respectively, compared to 25.1% and 26.8% for the three and six months ended January 31, 2025, respectively.

Current report

Effective tax rate. For the six months ended January 31, 2026, the higher effective tax rate was primarily due to a decrease in pretax book income and an increase in favorable discrete items impacting the tax provision in the current year. For the three months ended January 31, 2026, the lower effective tax rate was driven by income in foreign jurisdictions in which the Company does not receive a tax benefit.

Current report

We generated $575.9 million of net cash from operating activities during the six months ended January 31, 2026, a decrease of $33.3 million compared to $609.2 million generated during the six months ended January 31, 2025. The decrease in net operating cash flows was primarily a result of decreased Mountain and Lodging segment operating results for the six months ended January 31, 2026, primarily driven by decreased Local and Destination skier visitation as a result of historically low snowfall totals across the western U.S., which limited our ability to open terrain. These decreases were partially offset by a decrease in income tax payments of approximately $53.1 million for six months ended January 31, 2026 as compared to the prior year, primarily due to a difference in the timing of our estimated tax payments, which now will generally occur in higher proportions during the second half of our fiscal year, as a result of a recent change in tax year-end.

Current report

Net cash used in financing activities increased by $189.9 million during the six months ended January 31, 2026 compared to the six months ended January 31, 2025, primarily driven by the repayment upon maturity of the remaining $525.0 million aggregate principal amount of the 0.0% Convertible Notes, partially offset by the proceeds received from borrowings under the Vail Holdings Credit Agreement of $275.0 million.

Current report

Preparation of the Company’s financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts and related disclosures. The Company disclosed those policies and estimates that are critical and require the use of complex judgment in their application in our Annual Report filed on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2025. There have been no significant changes to those policies or the methods, assumptions and estimates during the interim period.

Mountain Reported EBITDA includes $5.4 million and $5.8 million of stock-based compensation expense for the three months ended October 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Previous report

Our first fiscal quarter historically results in negative Mountain Reported EBITDA, as most of our North American and European Resorts generally do not open for ski operations until our second fiscal quarter, which begins in November. The first fiscal quarter generally consists of operating and administrative expenses, North American and European summer activities

(including dining), retail/rental operations and the winter operations of our Australian ski areas, for which the ski season generally occurs from June through early October.

Previous report

Mountain Reported EBITDA increased $1.5 million, or 1.0%, primarily driven by our Australian ski resorts from the impact of improved visitation, which was supported by improved weather conditions and the growth in pass sales for the 2025 Australian winter season, compared to the prior year, as well as savings attributable to our resource efficiency transformation plan. The increase in Mountain Reported EBITDA was partially offset by the impact of inflation and one-time operating expenses attributable to our resource efficiency transformation plan of $3.6 million and $2.0 million for the three months ended October 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, as well as acquisition and integration related expenses of $0.1 million and $0.9 million for the three months ended October 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Previous report

Ski school revenue increased $1.0 million or 15.3% primarily driven by improved visitation at our Australian resorts, as well as increased lesson pricing. Dining revenue decreased $0.8 million or (4.1)% primarily as a result of decreased group demand at our Destination resorts compared to prior year, partially offset by increased revenue at our Australian resorts a result of improved visitation. Retail/rental revenue increased $1.3 million, or 4.3%, driven by improved visitation at our Australian resorts.

Previous report

Labor and labor-related benefits increased 3.0%, primarily due to an increase in labor expense to support increased Australian operations as a result of improved weather conditions compared to the prior year. General and administrative expense increased 4.2%, due to an increase in corporate overhead costs, including marketing expenses, legal expenses, and information technology expenses, partially offset by savings attributable to our resource efficiency transformation plan. Other expense increased 2.2%, primarily due to an increase in one-time costs relating to the resource efficiency transformation plan ($1.7 million) partially offset by a decrease in acquisition and integration related expenses ($0.8 million), as well as an increase in variable costs associated with the increased revenue at our Australian resorts.

Previous report

We generated $315.9 million of cash from operating activities during the three months ended October 31, 2025, an increase of $33.2 million compared to $282.7 million generated during the three months ended October 31, 2024. The increase in operating cash flows was primarily a result of (i) a decrease in income tax payments of approximately $22.9 million for three months ended October 31, 2025 as compared to the prior year, primarily due to a change in tax year-end to align with our fiscal year-end, and (ii) an increase in pass and other product sales and receivable collections of approximately $22.3 million, partially offset by the timing of payments for accounts payable, accrued liabilities, and inventory.

Previous report

The increase in cash used in investing activities for the three months ended October 31, 2025 of $0.7 million was primarily due to an increase in capital expenditures of approximately $0.7 million as compared to the prior year.

Previous report

Cash used in financing activities decreased by $31.6 million during the three months ended October 31, 2025 compared to the three months ended October 31, 2024, primarily due to (i) a decrease in repurchases of common stock of $20.0 million, (ii) a decrease in excise tax payments of $5.4 million, and (iii) a decrease in dividends paid of $3.3 million which was driven by repurchases of common stock that occurred throughout fiscal 2025.

Our 0.0% Convertible Notes due 2026 (the “0.0% Convertible Notes”) mature on January 1, 2026, and are therefore reflected within long-term debt due within one year on the Company’s Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheet as of October 31, 2025. On January 30, 2025, we completed separate, privately negotiated repurchases for an aggregate principal amount of $50.0 million of our 0.0% Convertible Notes with a limited number of holders for an aggregate cash repurchase price of approximately $48.0 million, representing a gain on extinguishment of debt of approximately $2.0 million, which was recorded within gain (loss) on disposal of fixed assets and other, net on the Company’s Consolidated Condensed Statements of Operations as of July 31, 2025. Following the repurchases, approximately $525.0 million aggregate principal amount of the 0.0% Convertible Notes remain outstanding. Proceeds from any borrowings on the incremental term loan facility and the increase in the revolving credit facility with regard to the First Amendment of the Vail Holdings Credit Agreement, as discussed further above, remain undrawn as of October 31, 2025, and are available to be used to refinance our 0.0% Convertible Notes. Additionally, the Company intends to use a portion of the proceeds from the 5.625% Notes for the repurchase or repayment of a portion of its outstanding 0.00% Convertible Notes at or prior to their maturity on January 1, 2026.

The MD&A includes discussion of financial performance within each of our three segments. We have chosen to specifically include segment Reported EBITDA (defined as segment net revenue less segment operating expense, plus segment equity investment income or loss, and for the Real Estate segment, plus gain or loss on sale of real property) in the following discussion because we consider this measurement to be a significant indication of our financial performance. We utilize segment Reported EBITDA in evaluating our performance and in allocating resources to our segments. Net Debt (defined as long-term debt, net plus long-term debt due within one year less cash and cash equivalents) is included in the following discussion because we consider this measurement to be a significant indication of our available capital resources. We also believe that Net Debt is an important measurement as it is an indicator of our ability to obtain additional capital resources for our future cash needs. Resort Reported EBITDA (defined as the combination of segment Reported EBITDA of our Mountain and Lodging segments), Total Reported EBITDA (which is Resort Reported EBITDA plus segment Reported EBITDA from our Real Estate segment) and Net Debt are not measures of financial performance or liquidity defined under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). Refer to the end of the Results of Operations section for a reconciliation of net loss attributable to Vail Resorts, Inc. to Total Reported EBITDA and Resort Reported EBITDA, and long-term debt, net to Net Debt.

Additionally, the Mountain segment includes ancillary services, primarily including ski school, dining and retail/rental operations, and for our Australian ski areas, including lodging and transportation operations. Mountain segment revenue is seasonal, with the majority of revenue earned from our North American and European ski operations occurring in our second and third fiscal quarters and the majority of revenue earned from our Australian ski operations occurring in our first and fourth fiscal quarters. Our North American and European Resorts typically experience their peak operating season for the Mountain segment from mid-December through mid-April, and our Australian ski areas typically experience their peak operating season from June to early October. Consequently, our first and fourth fiscal quarters are seasonally low periods as most of our North American and European ski operations are generally not open for business, and the activity of our Australian ski areas’ peak season and our North American and European summer operating results are not sufficient to offset the losses incurred during these seasonally low periods. Revenue of the Mountain segment during the first and fourth fiscal quarters is primarily generated from summer and group related visitation at our North American and European destination mountain resorts, retail/rental operations and peak season Australian ski operations.

Revenue of the Mountain segment during the first and fourth fiscal quarters is primarily generated from summer and group related visitation at our North American and European destination mountain resorts, retail/rental operations and peak season Australian ski operations. Our largest source of Mountain segment revenue is the sale of lift tickets (including pass products), which represented approximately 62% and 61% of Mountain segment revenue for the three months ended January 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

Previous wording

Revenue of the lodging segment during our first fiscal quarter is generated primarily by the operations of our NPS concessioner properties (as their peak operating season generally occurs during the months of June to October), as well as golf operations and seasonally low operations from our other owned and managed properties and businesses. Lodging properties (including managed condominium rooms) at or around our mountain resorts, and our Colorado resort ground transportation company, are closely aligned with the performance of the Mountain segment and generally experience similar seasonal trends. Management primarily focuses on Lodging net revenue excluding payroll cost reimbursements and Lodging operating expense excluding reimbursed payroll costs (which are not measures of financial performance under GAAP) as the reimbursements are made based upon the costs incurred with no added margin and as such, the revenue and corresponding expense do not affect our Lodging Reported EBITDA, which we use to evaluate Lodging segment performance.

Current wording

The performance of our lodging properties (including managed condominium rooms) proximate to our Resorts, and our Colorado resort ground transportation company, are closely aligned with the performance of the Mountain segment and generally experience similar seasonal trends, particularly with respect to visitation by Destination guests. Revenues from such properties represented approximately 94% of Lodging segment net revenue (excluding Lodging segment revenue associated with the reimbursement of payroll costs) for the three months ended January 31, 2026 and 2025. Management primarily focuses on Lodging net revenue excluding payroll cost reimbursements and Lodging operating expense excluding reimbursed payroll costs (which are not measures of financial performance under GAAP) as the reimbursements are made based upon the costs incurred with no added margin and as such, the revenue and corresponding expense do not affect our Lodging Reported EBITDA, which we use to evaluate Lodging segment performance. Revenue of the Lodging segment during our first and fourth fiscal quarters is generated primarily by the operations of our NPS concessioner properties (as their peak operating season generally occurs during the months of June to October), as well as golf operations and seasonally low operations from our other owned and managed properties and businesses.

•Overall weather conditions, including the timing and amount of snowfall, can have an impact on Mountain and Lodging revenue, particularly with regard to skier visits and the duration and frequency of guest visitation. To help mitigate this impact, we sell a variety of pass products prior to the beginning of the ski season, which results in a more stabilized stream of lift revenue. Additionally, our pass products provide a compelling value proposition to our guests, which in turn create a guest commitment predominately prior to the start of the ski season. North American pass product sales through December 5, 2025 for the upcoming 2025/2026 ski season decreased approximately 2% in units and increased approximately 3% in sales dollars as compared to the period in the prior year through December 3, 2024. Pass product sales are adjusted to eliminate the impact of foreign currency by applying an exchange rate of $0.72 between the Canadian dollar and U.S. dollar in both periods for Whistler Blackcomb pass sales. We cannot predict the overall impact that sales of our pass products will have on total lift revenue or effective ticket price for the fiscal year ending July 31, 2026.

Pass product revenue increased approximately $4.0 million, or 0.9% for the three months ended January 31, 2026 compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily due to increased pass product sales for 2025/2026 North American ski season compared to the 2024/2025 North American ski season, partially offset by timing of revenue recognition from delayed resort opening dates, compared to the prior year. Deferred revenue related to North American pass product sales was approximately $502.9 million as of January 31, 2026 (compared to approximately $474.7 million as of January 31, 2025).

•As of October 31, 2025, we had $581.5 million of cash and cash equivalents, as well as $507.7 million available under the revolver component of the Vail Holdings Credit Agreement, which represents the total commitment of $600.0 million less certain letters of credit outstanding of $92.3 million. We also have $275.0 million available under a delayed draw term loan of the Vail Holdings Credit Agreement, which will remain available to draw on at any time until January 27, 2026. Additionally, we have a credit facility which supports the liquidity needs of Whistler Blackcomb (the “Whistler Credit Agreement”). As of October 31, 2025, we had C$246.6 million ($175.9 million) available under the revolver component of the Whistler Credit Agreement, which represents the total commitment of C$250.0 million ($178.3 million) less letters of credit outstanding of C$3.4 million ($2.4 million). On September 24, 2025, we amended the Whistler Credit Agreement primarily to extend the maturity date to September 24, 2030, and to reduce the total size of the credit agreement from C$300.0 million to C$250.0 million. We believe that our existing cash and cash equivalents, availability under our credit agreements and the expected positive cash flow from operating activities of our Mountain and Lodging segments less resort capital expenditures will continue to provide us with sufficient liquidity to fund our operations.

Lift revenue increased $9.2 million, or 22.8%, primarily due to an increase in pass product revenue for the 2025 Australian winter season ($4.5 million), driven by growth in Australian pass product sales, as well as improved visitation at our Australian ski resorts, compared to the prior year, which was supported by improved weather conditions and resulted in an increase in non-pass revenue.

Current wording

As our North American Resorts primarily opened for ski season operations during our second fiscal quarter, certain components of Mountain segment net revenue, such as North American lift revenue, ski school revenue, dining revenue and retail/rental revenue for the six months ended January 31, 2026 and 2025 are materially unchanged as compared to those same components for the three months ended January 31, 2026 and 2025. Accordingly, the primary basis for the changes to these components of our North American Resorts for the six months ended January 31, 2026 as compared to the prior period are discussed above under the section heading “Three months ended January 31, 2026 compared to the three months ended January 31, 2025.” Additionally, with regard to the six months ended January 31, 2026 compared to the six months ended January 31, 2025, lift revenue increased at our Australian ski areas primarily due to an increase in pass product revenue for the 2025 Australian winter season, driven by growth in Australian pass product sales, as well as improved visitation at our Australian ski resorts, compared to the prior year, which was supported by improved weather conditions and resulted in an increase in non-pass revenue. Ski school revenue and retail/rental revenue also increased due to increased visitation at our Australian resorts.

Current wording

Operating expense decreased $7.8 million, or 0.8%, which was primarily attributable to reduced labor hours at our North American Resorts as a result of challenging weather conditions from historically low snowfall across the western U.S., which limited our ability to open terrain and impacted our ability to operate at full capacity, as compared to the prior year, as well as lower variable expenses associated with decreased revenue. Operating expense also includes one-time expenses attributable to our resource efficiency transformation plan of $4.7 million and $4.6 million for the six months ended January 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively, as well as acquisition and integration related expenses of $0.1 million and $1.0 million for the six months ended January 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

On July 16, 2008, December 4, 2015, March 7, 2023, September 25, 2024 and June 4, 2025, the Company’s Board of Directors increased the authorization by an additional 3,000,000, 1,500,000, 2,500,000, 1,100,000 and 1,500,000 Vail Shares, respectively, for a total authorization to repurchase up to 12,600,000 Vail Shares. The Company did not repurchase any Vail Shares during the three months ended October 31, 2025. The Company repurchased 114,800 Vail Shares during the three months ended October 31, 2024 (at an average cost of $174.21) for a total cost of approximately $20.0 million, excluding accrued excise tax. We funded the share repurchases with available cash on hand. Since inception of this stock repurchase program through October 31, 2025, we have repurchased 11,060,183 Vail Shares at a cost of approximately $1,399.4 million. As of October 31, 2025, 1,539,817 Vail Shares remained available to repurchase under the existing repurchase authorization. Vail Shares purchased pursuant to the repurchase program will be held as treasury shares and may be used for the issuance of shares under our share award plan. Repurchases under the program may be made from time to time at prevailing prices as permitted by applicable laws, and subject to market conditions and other factors. The timing as well as the number of Vail Shares that may be repurchased under the program will depend on several factors, including our future financial performance, our available cash resources and competing uses for cash that may arise in the future, the restrictions in our Vail Holdings Credit Agreement, prevailing prices of Vail Shares and the number of Vail Shares that become available for repurchase at prices that we believe are attractive. The share repurchase program has no expiration date.

Other revenue mainly consists of other mountain activities revenue, employee housing revenue, guest services revenue, commercial leasing revenue, marketing revenue, private club revenue (which includes both club dues and amortization of initiation fees), municipal services revenue and other recreation activity revenue.

Revenue from payroll cost reimbursement and the corresponding reimbursed payroll costs relate to payroll costs at managed hotel properties where we are the employer and all payroll costs are reimbursed by the owners of the properties under contractual arrangements. Since the reimbursements are made based upon the costs incurred with no added margin, the revenue and corresponding expense have no effect on our Lodging Reported EBITDA.

During the six months ended January 31, 2026, we recorded a gain on sale of real property for $13.0 million related to the sale of a real estate parcel in Breckenridge, Colorado for proceeds of $15.4 million. The proceeds were received in prior periods, but the terms of the agreement prevented transfer of control to the buyer at the time of sale; therefore, recognition of the gain was deferred until control was transferred during the six months ended January 31, 2026. We also recorded a loss on the sale of real property of $1.8 million related to the transfer of a land parcel in Keystone, Colorado. The proceeds were received in prior periods, but the terms of the agreement prevented transfer of control to the buyer at the time of sale; therefore, recognition of the loss was deferred for recognition until control was transferred, which occurred during the six months ended January 31, 2026.
