Q122 results significantly better than expected and full year expectations raised
Pursuit Refresh, Build, Buy strategy continues to fuel growth
GES launches Spiro to accelerate growth in Brand Experiences

Viad Corp (NYSE:VVI), a leading provider of experiential leisure travel and live events and marketing experiences, today reported financial results for the 2022 first quarter.

Steve Moster, Viad's president and chief executive officer, commented, "Our 2022 first quarter results significantly exceeded our expectations, primarily on stronger than anticipated revenue at GES as in-person event activity continued to improve. Pursuit performed in line with our expectations and delivered record first quarter revenue driven by stronger demand for our same-store and new year-round experiences during this seasonally slow quarter."

Moster continued, "I am proud of our first quarter performance and encouraged by the acceleration of activity across our businesses. Advance bookings at Pursuit point to a very strong peak season this summer, and GES' event bookings and pipeline indicate that in-person event activity will continue to improve. I look forward to building on our momentum as we execute over the balance of the year."

Pursuit Results

Pursuit's first quarter revenue increased $14.0 million from the 2021 first quarter. Our new year-round experiences contributed $5.1 million to the year-over-year growth and same-store revenue grew by $8.9 million versus the 2021 first quarter primarily due to stronger visitation at our Canadian experiences. Pursuit's seasonal adjusted EBITDA loss increased by $2.4 million versus the 2021 first quarter primarily due to a $2.8 million prior year benefit from the Canadian government's emergency wage subsidy program.

Regarding Pursuit's results, Moster commented, "We are very happy with the record level of first quarter revenue delivered by Pursuit. Our attractions and lodging properties in Canada benefited from travel restrictions being lifted, as well as our efforts to refresh our existing experiences and maximize revenue. Our new experiences, including the Sky Lagoon and FlyOver Las Vegas, are performing well and continue to gain momentum as awareness builds and long-haul leisure travel improves."

Moster continued, "With the Canadian border open, the new experiences we have added, and strong leisure travel demand, we expect revenue will remain much higher than the levels we realized in 2021. In preparation for significantly higher revenue, we are building up our bench of talented team members to ensure we are ready to deliver hospitality excellence for our guests. And we look forward to delivering strong EBITDA as we move into our peak summer season."

GES Results and Launch of Spiro

GES' first quarter revenue increased $134.4 million from the 2021 first quarter and Adjusted EBITDA improved by $16.9 million as compared to the 2021 first quarter. These improvements are primarily due to the resumption of live event activity and the return of large-scale events that canceled or postponed into the first half of 2021. Excluding a $9.1 million dollar gain on the sale of a GES facility in the 2021 first quarter, the year over year improvement in GES Adjusted EBITDA was $26.0 million.

Regarding GES' results, Moster commented, "GES' results exceeded our expectations due to a faster than expected rebound of event activity, which accelerated in March following two slower months that were challenged by the impacts of the COVID-19 Omicron variant. Revenue in the month of March reached approximately 75 percent of the amount generated in the 2019 pre-pandemic month. We're still seeing a fair amount of variation across the events we produce, but the overall trend line continues to improve and the corporate clients that we support with Brand Experiences have healthy budgets for this year."

During the first quarter, we created a unique identity, Spiro, for our Brand Experiences business. Spiro is the natural evolution of the strong client partnerships that we have built through our Brand Experiences business, which represented about 30 percent of GES' revenue in 2019 while serving as a strategic marketing partner to leading brands around the world.

Regarding Spiro, Moster commented, "Over the past year, we have positioned the Brand Experiences portion of GES to focus exclusively on corporate brand marketers. In the first quarter, we introduced the Spiro brand to the market to accelerate our growth by servicing the changing needs of today's brand marketers across a broader spectrum of their experiential marketing needs. We have been very successful onboarding new clients since 2019 and that has continued into 2022. The launch of Spiro is well-timed to help us accelerate growth in this large fragmented market as corporate brands pursue strong customer engagement across the physical, virtual, digital and hybrid marketing channels. I am thrilled about the growth potential for Spiro."

In connection with the reorganization of our operations to support the launch and growth of Spiro, we have defined two new reportable segments for GES: Spiro and GES Exhibitions. The following table provides a comparison of 2022 first quarter revenue and Adjusted EBITDA to the comparable period in 2021 for GES' two reportable segments. Additional historical financial information for these segments can be found in the tables accompanying this press release.

	Three months ended March 31,
(in millions)	2022			2021			$ Change

Revenue:
Spiro	$	42.8		$	12.1		$	30.8
GES Exhibitions		111.8			7.2			104.7
Inter-segment Eliminations		(1.1	)		(0.1	)		(1.0	)
Total GES	$	153.6		$	19.1		$	134.4

*Adjusted EBITDA:**
Spiro	$	0.7		$	(5.5	)	$	6.3
GES Exhibitions		2.0			(8.7	)		10.7
Total GES	$	2.7		$	(14.2	)	$	16.9

* Refer to Table Two of this press release for a discussion and reconciliation of this non-GAAP financial measure to its most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.

Spiro's first quarter 2022 revenue increased $30.8 million with an increase in Adjusted EBITDA of $6.3 million as compared to the 2021 first quarter. GES Exhibitions' first quarter 2022 revenue increased $104.7 million with an increase in Adjusted EBITDA of $10.7 million (or $19.8 million excluding the $9.1 million facility sale gain during the 2021 first quarter) as compared to the 2021 first quarter. These improvements primarily reflect the resumption of in-person event activity as well as the benefit of the cost structure reductions we've implemented.

Balance Sheet and Cash Flow Highlights

We ended the first quarter with total liquidity of $145.3 million, comprising cash and cash equivalents of approximately $58 million and approximately $87 million of capacity available on our revolving credit facility ($100 million total facility size, less approximately $13 million in letters of credit). Our debt totaled approximately $474 million, including $398 million outstanding on our Term Loan B, financing lease obligations of approximately $66 million (which primarily comprises real estate leases at Pursuit), and approximately $9 million in other debt.

Our 2022 first quarter cash flow from operations was an inflow of approximately $18 million, our capital expenditures totaled approximately $13 million, and we paid approximately $2 million in cash dividends on our convertible preferred equity and made net debt payments of approximately $4 million.

Moster commented, "As a result of our strong cash flow management and improved business activity, we generated positive operating cash flow during our seasonally slow first quarter. We have a solid liquidity position and financial flexibility that allows us to continue investing in high-return growth opportunities through Pursuit's Refresh, Build, Buy strategy, including our April 6^th acquisition of the Glacier Raft Company and construction of our new Forest Park Hotel in Jasper, as well as longer-term build projects to expand our FlyOver attraction platform."

2022 Outlook

Assuming no future material adverse changes to the macro environment from COVID, geo-political events, or other factors, we expect Adjusted EBITDA will be in the ranges shown in the following table. We continue to operate in a very dynamic environment and our performance could vary significantly from the amounts shown below.

(in millions)	Second Quarter	Full Year	Key Assumptions
Pursuit	$17 to $21	$80 to $90	US same store revenue out-performs 2019 on strong domestic leisure travel demand; Canada same store revenue remains below 2019 on partial recovery of long-haul international leisure travel New experiences continue to ramp as awareness builds and long-haul leisure travel partially recovers Revenue management efforts to drive rate increases offset wage inflation Overall margins will improve from 2021 but remain below 2019 due to guest mix
GES	$8 to $12	$25 to $35	Exhibitions same-show revenue will generally remain at or better than 75% of pre-pandemic levels Experiential marketing budgets of major Spiro clients are approximately 80% of pre-pandemic levels SG&A will gradually increase to support increased business activity and future revenue growth
Corporate	~$(3)	$(11) to $(12)	Run rate remains consistent with first quarter

Forward-Looking Non-GAAP Measures

The company has not quantitatively reconciled its guidance for adjusted EBITDA to its respective most comparable GAAP measure because certain reconciling items that impact this metric including, provision for income taxes, interest expense, restructuring or impairment charges, acquisition-related costs, and attraction start-up costs have not occurred, are out of the company's control, or cannot be reasonably predicted. Accordingly, reconciliations to the nearest GAAP financial measure are not available without unreasonable effort. Please note that the unavailable reconciling items could significantly impact the company's results as reported under GAAP.

VIAD CORP AND SUBSIDIARIES
TABLE ONE - NOTES TO QUARTERLY RESULTS
(UNAUDITED)

(A)	Corporate Activities — The increase in corporate activities expense during the three months ended March 31, 2022 was primarily due to higher performance-based compensation expense.

(B)	Restructuring Charges — Restructuring charges during the three months ended March 31, 2022 were primarily related to severance and facility closures at GES. Restructuring charges during the three months ended March 31, 2021 were primarily related to facility closures and the elimination of certain positions at GES. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, we accelerated our transformation and streamlining efforts at GES to significantly reduce costs and create a lower and more flexible cost structure focused on servicing our more profitable market segments.

(C)	Impairment Charges — Impairment charges during the three months ended March 31, 2022 were related to software development costs that are no longer being utilized at GES.

(D)	Net Interest Expense — The increase in interest expense during the three months ended March 31, 2022 was primarily due to higher interest rates and higher debt balances in 2022, offset in part by $1.9 million of capitalized interest recorded in the three months ended March 31, 2022.

(E)	Income Tax Benefit – The effective tax rate was 7.8% for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 6.3% for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The effective tax rates for both the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 were lower than the blended statutory rate primarily as a result of excluding the tax benefit on losses recognized in the United States, the United Kingdom, and other European countries where we have a valuation allowance.

(F)	Income from Discontinued Operations — Income from discontinued operations during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 were primarily due insurance recoveries related to previously sold operations, offset in part by legal expenses.

(G)	Income (Loss) per Common Share — We apply the two-class method in calculating income (loss) per common share as preferred stock and unvested share-based payment awards that contain nonforteitable rights to dividends are considered participating securities. Accordingly, such securities are included in the earnings allocation in calculating income per share.

	Diluted income (loss) per common share is calculated using the more dilutive of the two-class method or as-converted method. The two-class method uses net income (loss) available to common stockholders and assumes conversion of all potential shares other than participating securities. The as-converted method uses net income (loss) available to common shareholders and assumes conversion of all potential shares including participating securities. Dilutive potential common shares include outstanding stock options, unvested restricted share units and convertible preferred stock.

	Additionally, the adjustment to the carrying value of redeemable non-controlling interests is reflected in income (loss) per common share.

	The components of basic and diluted income (loss) per share are as follows:

		Three months ended March 31,
	(in thousands)	2022			2021			$ Change			% Change

	Net loss attributable to Viad	$	(29,001	)	$	(43,152	)	$	14,151		32.8	%

(H)	Convertible Series A Preferred Stock — On August 5, 2020, we entered into an Investment Agreement with funds managed by private equity firm Crestview Partners, relating to the issuance of 135,000 shares of newly issued Convertible Series A Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share, for an aggregate purchase price of $135 million or $1,000 per share. The Convertible Series A Preferred Stock carries a 5.5% cumulative quarterly dividend, which is payable in cash or in-kind at Viad's option and is convertible into shares of our common stock at a conversion price of $21.25 per share. A total of $6.8 million of dividends have been paid in kind, including $3.8 million during the first and second quarters of 2021. We began paying preferred stock dividends in cash during the 2021 third quarter and we intend to pay in cash for the foreseeable future.

VIAD CORP AND SUBSIDIARIES
TABLE TWO - NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
(UNAUDITED)

IMPORTANT DISCLOSURES REGARDING NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

This document includes the presentation of "Income (Loss) Before Other Items", "Adjusted EBITDA", "Segment Operating Income (Loss)", and "Adjusted Segment Operating Income (Loss)", which are supplemental to results presented under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies. These non-GAAP measures are utilized by management to facilitate period-to-period comparisons and analysis of Viad's operating performance and should be considered in addition to, but not as substitutes for, other similar measures reported in accordance with GAAP. The use of these non-GAAP financial measures is limited, compared to the GAAP measure of net income attributable to Viad, because they do not consider a variety of items affecting Viad's consolidated financial performance as reconciled below. Because these non-GAAP measures do not consider all items affecting Viad's consolidated financial performance, a user of Viad's financial information should consider net income attributable to Viad as an important measure of financial performance because it provides a more complete measure of the Company's performance.

Income (Loss) Before Other Items, Segment Operating Income (Loss), and Adjusted Segment Operating Income (Loss) are considered useful operating metrics, in addition to net income attributable to Viad, as potential variations arising from non-operational expenses/income are eliminated, thus resulting in additional measures considered to be indicative of Viad's performance. Management believes that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors regarding Viad's results of operations for trending, analyzing and benchmarking the performance and value of Viad's business. Management also believes that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA for acquisitions and other major capital projects enables investors to assess how effectively management is investing capital into major corporate development projects, both from a valuation and return perspective.
