Results of Operations and Financial Condition - Form 8-K

Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

On April 17, 2024, Viad Corp (the "Company) launched a process to effect a potential repricing of the credit spread (the "Repricing") on its $400 million Term Loan B, which had a remaining balance outstanding of $320 million at March 31, 2024. In connection with the Repricing, the Company affirms that it expects its consolidated revenue and Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter ended March 31, 2024, and year ending December 31, 2024, to fall within the ranges previously disclosed in its earnings press release furnished with its Current Report on Form 8-K on February 8, 2024. The Company intends to report actual results for the quarter ended March 31, 2024, which are subject to change in connection with the completion of the Company's financial closing process and the preparation of its consolidated financial statements, after market close on May 2, 2024.

The Company maintains its previously disclosed outlook for the year ending December 31, 2024, as positive trends continue for both Pursuit and GES. Pursuit booking pace remains ahead of pace for the prior year period, and FlyOver Chicago opened on March 1, 2024, with a strong start. GES continues to see improved demand for exhibitions, events and experiential marketing.
