Pursuit Reports Record Second Quarter 2026 Results and Updates Full Year Guidance While Advancing Long-term Growth Initiatives

Pursuit reported record Q2 revenue of $133.5 million, up 14.3% year-over-year, and raised full-year Adjusted EBITDA guidance to $128 million-$138 million, an increase of $5 million. The guidance raise reflects incremental contributions from the recently closed Eagle Wing Tours acquisition and the Flyover business prior to its sale, partially offset by unfavorable exchange rates. Operationally, the company completed the $75 million sale of its non-core Flyover business and repurchased $7.5 million of stock, leaving net leverage at 1.5x.

Pursuit Completes Strategic Divestiture of Flyover Business, Strengthening Focus on Growth in Iconic Destinations

Pursuit completed the sale of its Flyover flying theater business to Brogent Technologies for $75 million, representing a multiple of approximately 14.5 times Flyover's 2025 Adjusted EBITDA. The final purchase price was revised downward from the originally agreed $78.4 million due to closing conditions, though the reduction was more than offset by the business's earnings during the extended closing period. Management intends to deploy the proceeds towards high-return organic growth projects, strategic acquisitions, and opportunistic share repurchases to deliver on its Vision 2030 targets.
