“As we head further into 2021, the recovery is beginning to take hold, as evidenced by our improving operating performance compared to prior quarters,” said Gregory S. Marcus, president and chief executive officer of The Marcus Corporation. “Both of our operating businesses once again significantly outperformed their respective industries during the quarter. Significant progress administering the vaccine, improving conditions in our markets and growing consumer confidence are bringing more people back to our theatres, hotels and restaurants, although still at levels well below the norm. While it will take some time to return to pre-pandemic levels, the quality of our assets, the appealing experiences we provide and our continued focus on service and safety have positioned both Marcus Theatres and Marcus Hotels & Resorts for the continued recovery. We are encouraged by the improvements we are seeing and remain optimistic for the future.”
Marcus Theatres®
The first quarter began with 52% of theaters open due to state and local restrictions in several markets. As restrictions were lifted and several new films were released by movie studios, Marcus Theatres began reopening more theatres, and as of Friday, May 7, nearly 89% of theatres will be open, many with expanded operating days and hours. The expectation is that the majority of the remaining closed theatres will reopen by the end of May as more anticipated new films are released and demand returns.
The division’s operating loss in the first quarter of fiscal 2021 was favorably impacted by a nonrecurring state government grant of $1.3 million. Average concession revenues per person increased 16 percent compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2020, further contributing to the division’s improved results compared to recent quarters.

Marcus Theatres outperformed the industry by 9.0 percentage points during the fiscal 2021 first quarter, according to data received from Comscore. We believe this made Marcus Theatres the top performing theatre circuit during the quarter compared to the top 10 circuits in the United States. Sales attributable to Marcus Private Cinema exceeded expectations, helping to partially offset reduced traditional attendance and contributing to the division’s outperformance. Marcus Private Cinema is a program where guests can reserve an entire auditorium for up to 20 people, offering a safe, fun and stress-free social gathering opportunity for a flat fee.
“With restrictions loosening in markets like New York and California, studios are showing an increased willingness to begin releasing new films to theatres,” said Rolando Rodriguez, chairman, president and chief executive officer of Marcus Theatres. “The recent successes of ‘Godzilla vs. Kong,’ ‘Mortal Kombat’ and ‘Demon Slayer’ are particularly exciting, becoming the best performing films since the onset of the pandemic and underscoring the pent-up demand for out-of-home entertainment. Looking forward, we know Marcus Theatres has many significant advantages compared to our competitors, including what we believe is the highest percentage of recliner seating, proprietary large-format screens and food and beverage options in the industry. We look forward to welcoming even more guests back to the big screen at Marcus Theatres, including to the newly remodeled Mid Rivers Cinema in St. Peters, MO, which is reopening this Friday.”
Several films generated box office interest in the first quarter, including “Raya and the Last Dragon,” “Tom and Jerry,” “The Croods: A New Age,” “Wonder Woman 1984” and “The Little Things.” Highly anticipated films for the remainder of the fiscal 2021 second quarter include “Cruella,” “Quiet Place II,” “Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It,” “In the Heights” and “Fast & Furious 9.” The film slate for the remainder of 2021, which includes films such as “Black Widow,” “Space Jam: The New Legacy,” “Hotel Transylvania: Transformania,” “The Suicide Squad,” “Free Guy,” “Venom: Let There Be Carnage,” “Dune,” “No Time to Die,” “Top Gun: Maverick,” “West Side Story,” and “Spider Man: No Way Home,” is also expected to be very strong.
Marcus® Hotels & Resorts
While the first quarter is historically the slowest quarter of the fiscal year for Marcus Hotels & Resorts, the division’s operating loss improved significantly compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2020 due to strong cost controls across all properties and strong leisure demand. Improved operating performance at the Grand Geneva Resort & Spa in Lake Geneva, Wis., which saw record ski revenues during the quarter, contributed to the division’s improvement this quarter. Despite the challenges associated with operating during a pandemic, Marcus Hotels & Resorts outperformed the industry and its competitive sets by approximately eight and six percentage points, respectively.

“While the pandemic continues to impact both business and group travel, our results in the first quarter exceeded expectations,” said Michael Evans, president of Marcus Hotels & Resorts. “Demand continues to be driven by ‘drive-to leisure’ consumers as they seek opportunities to get away, change their scenery and do something new. And while business travel will likely remain limited in the near term, vaccination progress and improving conditions in our markets bodes well for a gradual increase in this market segment in the months ahead.”
Group pace for fiscal 2021 remains behind prior years at this same time, but bookings are increasing for later in 2021 and into 2022. That includes many cancelled group bookings due to COVID-19, which are rebooking for future dates.
Balance Sheet and Liquidity
The Marcus Corporation’s financial position remains strong, with $213 million in cash and revolving credit availability at the end of the quarter.
“Our significant liquidity, combined with the receipt of expected income tax refunds and proceeds from the sale of surplus real estate, positions us to continue to meet our obligations as they come due and continue to sustain operations throughout fiscal 2021 and into 2022, even in the unlikely event our properties continue to generate significantly reduced revenues,” said Douglas Neis, executive vice president, chief financial officer and treasurer of The Marcus Corporation.
Early in the first quarter of fiscal 2021, the company received the remaining requested tax refunds from its fiscal 2019 return. In addition, the company filed income tax refund claims related to its fiscal 2020 tax return during the fiscal 2021 first quarter. The company continues to pursue select real estate sales, receiving proceeds from the sale of an equity interest in a joint venture during the first quarter and obtaining additional letters of intent or contracts for several other asset sales.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Adjusted net earnings (loss) attributable to The Marcus Corporation, Adjusted net earnings (loss) per diluted common share attributable to The Marcus Corporation and Adjusted EBITDA have been presented in this press release as supplemental measures of financial performance that are not required by, or presented in accordance with, GAAP. The company defines Adjusted net earnings (loss) attributable to The Marcus Corporation as net earnings (loss) attributable to The Marcus Corporation adjusted to eliminate the impact of certain items that the company does not consider indicative of its core operating performance and the tax effect related to those items. The company defines Adjusted net earnings (loss) per diluted common share attributable to The Marcus Corporation as Adjusted net earnings (loss) attributable to The Marcus Corporation divided by diluted weighted average shares outstanding. The company defines Adjusted EBITDA as net earnings (loss) attributable to The Marcus Corporation before investment income or loss, interest expense, other expense, gain or loss on disposition of property, equipment and other assets, equity earnings or losses from unconsolidated joint ventures, net earnings or losses attributable to noncontrolling interests, income taxes and depreciation and amortization, adjusted to eliminate the impact of certain items that the company does not consider indicative of its core operating performance. Reconciliations of these measures to the equivalent measures under GAAP are set forth in the attached tables.

Adjusted net earnings (loss) attributable to The Marcus Corporation, Adjusted net earnings (loss) per diluted common share attributable to The Marcus Corporation and Adjusted EBITDA are key measures used by management and the company’s board of directors to assess the company’s financial performance and enterprise value. The company believes that Adjusted net earnings (loss) attributable to The Marcus Corporation, Adjusted net earnings (loss) per diluted common share attributable to The Marcus Corporation and Adjusted EBITDA are useful measures, as they eliminate certain expenses that are not indicative of the company’s core operating performance and facilitate a comparison of the company’s core operating performance on a consistent basis from period to period. The company also uses Adjusted EBITDA as a basis to determine certain annual cash bonuses and long-term incentive awards, to supplement GAAP measures of performance to evaluate the effectiveness of its business strategies, to make budgeting decisions, and to compare its performance against that of other peer companies using similar measures. Adjusted net earnings, Adjusted diluted earnings per share and Adjusted EBITDA are also used by analysts, investors and other interested parties as performance measures to evaluate industry competitors.
Adjusted net earnings (loss) attributable to The Marcus Corporation, Adjusted net earnings (loss) per diluted common share attributable to The Marcus Corporation and Adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP measures of the company’s financial performance and should not be considered as alternatives to net earnings (loss) or diluted earnings (loss) per share as a measure of financial performance, or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP and they should not be construed as an inference that the company’s future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. Additionally, Adjusted net earnings (loss) attributable to The Marcus Corporation and Adjusted EBITDA are not intended to be measures of liquidity or free cash flow for management’s discretionary use. In addition, these non-GAAP measures exclude certain non-recurring and other charges. Each of these non-GAAP measures has its limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the company’s results as reported under GAAP. In evaluating Adjusted net earnings (loss) attributable to The Marcus Corporation, Adjusted net earnings (loss) per diluted common share attributable to The Marcus Corporation and Adjusted EBITDA, you should be aware that in the future the company will incur expenses that are the same as or similar to some of the items eliminated in the adjustments made to determine Adjusted net earnings (loss) attributable to The Marcus Corporation, Adjusted net earnings (loss) per diluted common share attributable to The Marcus Corporation and Adjusted EBITDA, such as acquisition expenses, preopening expenses, accelerated depreciation, impairment charges and other adjustments. The company’s presentation of Adjusted net earnings (loss) attributable to The Marcus Corporation, Adjusted net earnings (loss) per diluted common share attributable to The Marcus Corporation and Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed to imply that the company’s future results will be unaffected by any such adjustments. Definitions and calculations of Adjusted net earnings (loss), Adjusted diluted earnings (loss) per share and Adjusted EBITDA differ among companies in our industries, and therefore Adjusted net earnings (loss), Adjusted diluted earnings (loss) per share and Adjusted EBITDA disclosed by the company may not be comparable to the measures disclosed by other companies.
