Eagle Wing Tours Acquisition
Current report
On July 14, 2026, we entered into a Share Purchase Agreement with the shareholders of Eagle Wing Tours Ltd. (“Eagle Wing”), pursuant to which we acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of Eagle Wing for an aggregate purchase price of CAD $23.9 million (approximately USD $17.0 million as of closing). Eagle Wing, based on Vancouver Island, British Columbia, operates a whale watching and marine wildlife experience through a fleet of five vessels. The financial results of Eagle Wing will be consolidated in our financial statements prospectively from the date of acquisition.
Current report
Attractions revenue increased $2.9 million, or 4.2%, during the three months ended June 30, 2026, primarily due to a 7.7% increase in revenue per attraction visitor on a same store-basis, as well as incremental attractions revenue from Tabacón (acquired in July 2025) of $1.2 million. Attractions revenue increased $7.6 million, or 8.3%, during the six months ended June 30, 2026, primarily due to a 6.7% increase in revenue per attraction visitor on a same-store basis, as well as incremental attractions revenue from Tabacón of $3.1 million.
Current report
Other revenue increased $3.5 million and $3.7 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, respectively, primarily due to film licensing revenue for the Flyover Attractions during such periods.
Current report
** Change is greater than +/- 100%.
Current report
The increase in operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to the prior year period was primarily due to the periodic remeasurement of the Sky Lagoon finance lease obligation, which resulted in an unrealized foreign exchange gain of $6.1 million in 2025 compared to an unrealized foreign exchange loss of $0.2 million in 2026. The increase was also due to incremental expenses from Tabacón of $4.5 million and increases in variable costs associated with increased transaction volumes and revenue, including increases of $3.4 million in labor expense, $2.3 million in operating supplies and services, and other inflationary cost increases.
Current report
Other (income) expense, net –The increases in other income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to the prior year periods were primarily due to a $5.4 million settlement charge in the prior year periods associated with the termination of the Giltspur Inc. Employees’ Pension Plan, which was reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss, and a $4.6 million gain recorded during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, related to business interruption insurance proceeds received in connection to the 2024 Jasper wildfires. These increases were partially offset by an approximate $3.1 million impairment of the Flyover Attractions Disposal Group (the total assets and liabilities combined with the related accumulated other comprehensive loss of the Flyover Attractions) during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026.
Removed paragraphs (3)
Previous report
Attractions revenue increased $4.8 million due primarily to a 5.0% increase in the number of visitors, as well as a 14.2% increase in revenue per attraction visitor, including the impact of Tabacón (acquired in July 2025), which contributed incremental attractions revenue of $1.9 million.
Previous report
Selling, general, and administrative expenses– The decrease in selling, general, and administrative expenses was primarily due to higher transaction-related costs during the three months ended March 31, 2025, of $4.9 million (primarily related to our transition to a standalone publicly-traded operating company in connection with the sale of the GES business), partially offset by higher labor and variable compensation costs of $1.1 million, higher information technology costs of $0.8 million associated with completing our transition to a standalone company, and other inflationary cost increases. Additionally, Tabacón contributed incremental expenses of approximately $0.7 million.
Previous report
On August 6, 2025, we announced that our Board of Directors approved a share repurchase authorization for up to $50.0 million of Pursuit’s common stock, which replaced and superseded the Company’s previously suspended share repurchase authorization. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, we repurchased shares of our common stock worth $25.2 million. As of March 31, 2026, approximately $14.6 million remained authorized and available for common stock repurchases.
