B.Riley FBR analyst Eric Wold reiterated a Buy rating on Cedar Fair (FUN) today and set a price target of $60. The company’s shares closed yesterday at $49.70.
Wold noted:
“Earlier this morning (8/7), Cedar Fair (FUN) reported 2Q19 results that came in well ahead of expectations for admissions, revenues, and adjusted EBITDA—in the face of potential adverse weather impacts that lasted through most of June. In addition to driving stronger attendance, FUN made continued gains in guest spending per capita and out-of-park revenues (demonstrating increasing guest and undeveloped land monetization). We remain optimistic that the continued season pass demand and addition of attractions/special events throughout the year should have a positive impact on both attendance and spending patterns—with FUN also sporting an attractive 7%+ tax advantaged distribution yield. We are reiterating our Buy rating and $60 PT. Management will be hosting a conference call this morning at 10:00am ET.”
