July 30, 2026
Marcus Corporation reports strong net earnings and highest revenue and Adjusted EBITDA in a second quarter since the pandemic; Marcus Theatres and Marcus Hotels & Resorts outperformed their respective industries; Marcus Hotels & Resorts reports strong operating income and record second quarter revenue and Adjusted EBITDA
MILWAUKEE--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
The Marcus Corporation
(NYSE: MCS) today reported results for the second quarter fiscal 2026 ended June 30, 2026.
“Our second quarter fiscal 2026 results reflected strong contributions from both divisions, with Marcus Theatres and Marcus Hotels & Resorts each significantly outperforming their respective industries,” said Gregory S. Marcus, chief executive officer of Marcus Corporation. “Marcus Theatres delivered the highest admission revenue growth among the top theatre circuits during the second quarter of fiscal 2026, powered by a diverse slate of high-quality films that performed well in our markets, including a favorable mix of family friendly movies. In our hotels and resorts division, healthy leisure demand drove both occupancy and rate growth that propelled performance and set a record second quarter revenue and Adjusted EBITDA for Marcus Hotels & Resorts. Each division has a lot to look forward to as we head into the second half of the year. In Marcus Theatres, the film slate for the third and fourth quarters of fiscal 2026 is impressive, starting with the recent epic opening of
The Odyssey
and this weekend’s eagerly awaited release of
Spider-Man: Brand New Day
, followed by many great titles through the end of the year, including the highly anticipated
Avengers: Doomsday
and
Dune: Part Three
. In Marcus Hotels & Resorts, leisure travelers and groups continue to prioritize travel and events, which bodes well for our primarily upper-upscale and luxury hotels and resorts across the nation.”

The Super Mario Galaxy Movie
Michael
, high-interest sequels like
The Devil Wears Prada 2

Obsessio
n and
Backrooms
, and the debut of

, which delivered the highest total revenue for a June opening weekend in Marcus Theatres history. The third quarter of fiscal 2026 is off to a similarly strong start, led by the massive success of
; strong pre-sales for

Marcus
Hotels & Resorts
During the second quarter of fiscal 2026, Marcus Hotels & Resorts reported total revenues before cost reimbursements of $70.8 million, a 9.6% increase over the prior year quarter and a record for any second quarter. Operating income was $6.7 million during the second quarter of fiscal 2026, a 59.8% increase over the second quarter of fiscal 2025. Adjusted EBITDA was $14.7 million, a 31.1% increase compared to the prior year quarter and a record for any second quarter.
Revenue per available room, or RevPAR, increased 13.9% at company-owned hotels during the second quarter of fiscal 2026 compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2025. During the second quarter of fiscal 2026, Marcus Hotels & Resorts outperformed the industry by 8.2 percentage points and outperformed its competitive sets by 6.1 percentage points. This outperformance was partially driven by the favorable impact of the Hilton Milwaukee being fully operational during the second quarter of fiscal 2026 compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2025 when the hotel was undergoing renovations. Excluding the estimated impact of the Hilton Milwaukee renovation on the prior year period, the division outperformed its competitive sets by 1.1 percentage points during the second quarter of fiscal 2026.
“Congratulations to our associates for delivering a record second quarter and outperforming both the industry and our competitive sets,” said Michael R. Evans, president of Marcus Hotels & Resorts. “Strong leisure demand positively contributed to room rate and RevPAR growth during the quarter, with group pace running ahead of the same period last year. Our strategic focus on investing in our high-quality assets, combined with our commitment to operational excellence and passion for extraordinary guest experiences, drives our performance and positions us well as we head into the remainder of the year.”
Grand Geneva Resort & Spa in Lake Geneva, Wisconsin opened its new short-course golf course, Wee Nip, earlier this May with positive reviews from golfers and golf critics alike. The new 11-hole course, along with the resort’s two championship courses, positively influenced golf revenue growth during the second quarter of fiscal 2026.
Fiscal Year Change
The first half of fiscal 2026 was comprised of five fewer operating days than the first half of fiscal 2025 due to the transition in the Company’s fiscal year in the prior year first quarter. During fiscal 2025 the Company’s fiscal year changed from a 52-53 week fiscal year ending on the last Thursday of each year to a fiscal year ending on December 31 of each year, with quarterly results for three-month periods ending March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31. The first half of fiscal 2025 consisted of the six month period beginning December 27, 2024 and ended on June 30, 2025 (comprised of five operating days between December 27-31, 2024, plus 181 operating days in the calendar first half of 2025).

Non-GAAP Financial Measure
Adjusted EBITDA has been presented in this press release as a supplemental measure of financial performance that is not required by, or presented in accordance with, GAAP. 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, depreciation and amortization and non-cash share-based compensation expense, adjusted to eliminate the impact of certain items that the company does not consider indicative of its core operating performance. A reconciliation of this measure to the equivalent measure under GAAP, along with reconciliations of this measure for each of our operating segments, are set forth in the attached table.
Adjusted EBITDA is a key measure 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 EBITDA is a useful measure, as it eliminates certain expenses and gains that are not indicative of the company’s core operating performance and facilitates 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 EBITDA is also used by analysts, investors and other interested parties as a performance measure to evaluate industry competitors.
Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure of the company’s financial performance and should not be considered as an alternative to net earnings (loss) as a measure of financial performance, or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP and it should not be construed as an inference that the company’s future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. Additionally, Adjusted EBITDA is not intended to be a measure of liquidity or free cash flow for management’s discretionary use. In addition, this non-GAAP measure excludes certain non-recurring and other charges and has its limitations as an analytical tool. You should not consider Adjusted EBITDA in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the company’s results as reported under GAAP. In evaluating 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 EBITDA, such as acquisition expenses, preopening expenses, accelerated depreciation, impairment charges and other adjustments. The company’s presentation of 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 EBITDA differ among companies in our industries, and therefore Adjusted EBITDA disclosed by the company may not be comparable to the measures disclosed by other companies.
