We sit at the sweet spot of broad trends driving the “experience” and “membership” economies, while being insulated from the online threats impacting so many companies. I am very proud of our outstanding team members who overcame unprecedented natural events to deliver our eighth consecutive year of record financial performance in 2017. I am even more excited about our future as we continue to build our lucrative, recurring revenue base. In 2017, Adjusted EBITDA (1) grew two percent, and our Modified EBITDA (1) margin remained the industry high. We returned $727 million to shareholders in the form of stock repurchases and dividends and delivered a 16 percent total return. In addition, we increased our dividend twice since the third quarter 2017 to an annual run-rate of $3.12 per share. This marks our ninth consecutive year of dividend increases and provides a yield more than double the S&P 500, making us the ultimate growth and yield stock. Over the course of 2017, we made notable progress to advance all our five major growth areas: 1) Took pricing up 3-5 percent on all our tickets, while reaching new highs in our value-for-the- money-ratings and achieving the most successful pre-sale

The physics of the rides is the basic material of a first-year physics course. Roller coasters demonstrate the conversion of gravitational potential into kinetic energy; rotating swing rides illustrate the vector addition of forces. Rotating rides of all sorts allow for computation of centripetal accelerations and all of those terrifying falls allow students to experience free fall and near weightless conditions. Students who think about and experience physics in the park develop a deeper understanding of the principles taught in the classroom. By becoming part of the laboratory equipment, the students experience the excitement of understanding and learning along with the enjoyment of the rides.
