(1) Description of Business and Significant Accounting Policies

Lucky Strike Entertainment Corporation, a Delaware corporation, and its subsidiaries (referred to herein as, the “Company”, “Lucky Strike Entertainment”, “Lucky Strike”, “we,” “us” and “our”) is one of the world’s premier operators of location-based entertainment.

The Company operates location-based entertainment venues under different brand names. Our AMF and Bowl America branded locations are traditional bowling locations, while the Lucky Strike and Bowlero branded locations offer a more upscale entertainment concept with lounge seating, enhanced food and beverage offerings, and more robust customer service for individuals and group events. The Company also operates other forms of location-based entertainment, such as Octane Raceway, Raging Waves water park, Shipwreck Island water park, Big Kahuna’s water park, Wet ‘n Wild Emerald Pointe water park, Castle Park and Boomers Parks. All of our locations are managed in a fully integrated and consistent basis because all of our locations are in the same business of operating location-based entertainment.

Basis of Presentation: The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted. In the opinion of management, these financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods indicated. Our quarterly financial data should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 29, 2025.

Principles of Consolidation: The condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes include the accounts of Lucky Strike and the subsidiaries it controls. Control is determined based on ownership rights or, when applicable, based on whether the Company is considered to be the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity. We use the equity method to account for investments in which we have the ability to exercise significant influence over the investee’s operating and financial policies, or in which we hold a partnership or limited liability company interest in an entity with specific ownership accounts, unless we have virtually no influence over the investee’s operating and financial policies. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Segment Reporting: We manage our business activities on a consolidated basis and operate as a single operating segment: Location-based entertainment. The Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Thomas Shannon, is the Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”). The CODM reviews the financial information presented on a consolidated basis since the Company provides its offerings and views key metrics, costs and margins similarly among our various location-based entertainment venues.

As a result, the CODM assesses performance and allocates resources based on net income (loss), as reported on our condensed consolidated statements of operations. The CODM manages and evaluates the results of the business in a consolidated manner to drive synergies and develop uniform strategies. Accordingly, key components and processes of the Company’s operations are centrally managed, including location acquisitions and development, customer service, marketing, human resources, finance and accounting, legal and government affairs. Segment asset information is not used by the CODM to allocate resources. The operating financial results along with significant segment expenses and other segment items are presented on the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Use of Estimates: The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the balance sheets, statements of operations and accompanying notes. Significant estimates made by management include, but are not limited to, cash flow projections; the fair value of assets and liabilities in acquisitions; derivatives with hedge accounting; share-based compensation; depreciation and impairment of long-lived assets; carrying amount and recoverability analyses of property and equipment, assets held for sale, goodwill and other intangible assets; valuation of deferred tax assets and liabilities and income tax uncertainties; and reserves for litigation, claims and self-insurance costs. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Change in Estimates: During the first quarter of fiscal year 2026, management conducted a review of the estimated useful lives of fixed assets due to operational changes, improved maintenance practices, and technological enhancements that are extending asset durability and reducing wear and tear. As a result of this review, the estimated useful lives were revised to better reflect their estimated future economic benefits.

Table of Contents

Index to Notes

The following table shows the impact of the changes in estimates:


	Three Months Ended
	September 28, 2025
Decrease to depreciation expense	$	7,444
Decrease to net loss	7,444
Decrease to net loss per share	$	0.05

Fair-value Estimates: We have various financial instruments included in our financial statements. Financial instruments are carried in our financial statements at either cost or fair value. We estimate fair value of assets and liabilities using the following hierarchy using the highest level possible:

Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical assets and liabilities.

Level 2: Observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted on active markets, but are corroborated by market data.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs are used when little or no market data is available.

Cash and Cash Equivalents: The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity date of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The Company accepts a range of debit and credit cards, and these transactions are generally transmitted to a bank for reimbursement within 24 hours. The payments due from the banks for these debit and credit card transactions are generally received, or settled, within 24 to 48 hours of the transmission date. The Company considers all debit and credit card transactions that settle in less than seven days to be cash equivalents.

Prepaid Expenses and Other Current Assets: Prepaid expenses consists primarily of payments made for goods and services to be received in the near future. Prepaid expenses consists of sales tax, insurance premiums, deposits, and other costs.


	September 28, 2025		June 29, 2025
Prepaid expenses	$	27,629	$	17,731
Non-trade receivables	8,287		10,087
Other	1,173		1,548
Total prepaid expenses and other current assets	$	37,089	$	29,366

Equity Method Investments: The aggregate carrying amounts of our equity method investments was $25,843 and $25,841 as of September 28, 2025 and June 29, 2025, respectively, and are included as a component of Other Assets in our accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. Substantially all of our equity method investments consist of a limited partner interest in a subsidiary of VICI Properties Inc. (“VICI”). Equity method investments are adjusted to recognize (1) our share, based on percentage ownership or other contractual basis, of the investee’s net income or loss after the date of investment, (2) additional contributions made or distributions received, (3) amortization of the recorded investment that exceeds our share of the book value of the investee’s net assets, and (4) impairments resulting from other-than-temporary declines in fair value. Cash distributions received from our equity method investments are considered returns on investment and presented within operating activities in the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows to the extent of cumulative equity in net income of the investee. Additional distributions in excess of cumulative equity are considered returns of our investment and are presented as investing activities.

Derivatives: We are exposed to interest rate risk. To manage this risk, we entered into interest rate collar derivative transactions associated with a portion of our outstanding debt. The interest rate collars, which are designated for accounting purposes as cash flow hedges, establish a cap and floor on the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR). The Company's interest rate collars expire on March 31, 2026.

For financial derivative instruments that are designated as a cash flow hedge for accounting purposes, the effective portion of the gain or loss on the financial derivative instrument is reported as a component of other comprehensive income and reclassified into earnings in the same line item associated with the forecasted transaction, and in the same period or periods during which the forecasted transaction affects earnings. Gains and losses on the financial derivative representing either hedge ineffectiveness or hedge components excluded from the assessment of effectiveness are recognized in current earnings.

Table of Contents

Index to Notes

The interest rate collar agreements effectively modified our exposure to interest rate risk by converting a portion of our interest payments on floating rate debt to include a cap and floor, thus reducing the impact of interest rate changes on future interest expense. See Note 7 - Debt for more information.

Net (Loss) Income Per Share Attributable to Common Stockholders: We compute net (loss) income per share of Class A common stock and Class B common stock under the two-class method. Holders of Class A common stock and Class B common stock have equal rights to the earnings of the Company. Our participating securities include the Series A preferred stock that have a non-forfeitable right to dividends in the event that a dividend is paid on common stock, but do not participate in losses, and thus are not included in a two-class method in periods of loss. In periods where the Company reports a net loss, all potentially dilutive securities are excluded from the calculation of the diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders as their effect is antidilutive and accordingly, basic and diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders will be the same. Dilutive securities include Series A preferred stock, earnouts, stock options, and restricted stock units (“RSUs”). See Note 14 - Net (Loss) Income Per Share.

Emerging Growth Company Status: The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (“JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements.

Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of our financial statements with those of another public company that is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company that has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards: In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (“Topic 740”): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which includes amendments that further enhance income tax disclosures through the standardization and disaggregation of rate reconciliation categories and income taxes paid in both domestic and foreign jurisdictions. ASU 2023-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024 and is to be applied prospectively, with early adoption and retrospective application permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2023-09 in the first quarter of fiscal year 2026 and the adoption of this guidance will result in updates to disclosures to adhere to the new requirements, but is not expected to otherwise have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement–Reporting Comprehensive Income–Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (“ASU 2024-03”), which requires the disaggregation of certain expenses in the notes of the financials, to provide enhanced transparency into the expense captions presented on the face of the income statement. ASU 2024-03 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027 and may be applied either prospectively or retrospectively. We are currently evaluating the impact of this standard to our consolidated financial statements.

(2) Business Acquisitions

Acquisitions: The Company continually evaluates potential acquisitions, which can be either business combinations or asset purchases, that strategically fit within the Company’s overall growth strategy in order to expand our market share in key geographic areas and to improve our ability to leverage our fixed costs.

2026 Business Acquisitions: For business combinations, the Company allocates the consideration transferred to the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their preliminary estimated fair values as of the acquisition date. We estimate the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed using valuation techniques, such as the income, cost and market approaches. During the three months ended September 28, 2025, the Company had one acquisition in which we acquired four locations for a total consideration of $44,047. The Company is still in the process of finalizing its valuation analyses for the acquisition. The remaining fair value estimates include working capital, intangibles, property and equipment, and operating lease assets and liabilities. If necessary, for business combinations, we will continue to refine our estimates throughout the permitted measurement period, which may result in corresponding offsets to

The proceeds from the Term Loan, along with proceeds from the Notes (defined below), were used to fully repay outstanding borrowings under the First Lien Credit Agreement, including:

•$1,275,861 under the existing term loan

•$230,000 under the Bridge Term Loan (defined below)

•All outstanding borrowings under the Revolver (defined below)

The refinancing was accounted for as a non-substantial debt modification, resulting in no gain or loss.

The Term Loan is repaid on a quarterly basis in principal payments of $3,000 beginning on March 31, 2026. The Term Loan bears interest at a rate per annum equal to the Adjusted Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) plus 3.25%, subject to a step down to 3.00% per annum at Total Leverage Ratio level of 2.90:1.00.

In connection with the Fifteenth Amendment, the Revolver commitment was increased by $40,000 to an aggregate amount of $425,000, and the amount outstanding as of the effective date of the Fifteenth Amendment of $155,000 was repaid. As of September 28, 2025, no amounts have been drawn on the Revolver. Any outstanding balance on the Revolver is due on September 22, 2030. Interest on borrowings under the Revolver is based on the Adjusted Term SOFR. Borrowings under the Revolver bear interest at a rate per annum equal to SOFR plus 2.5%. Unused commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility incur initial commitment fees of 0.25%.

Bridge Term Loan: On July 10, 2025, the Company entered into a Thirteenth Amendment (the “Thirteenth Amendment”) to the First Lien Credit Agreement. The Thirteenth Amendment provided for a $230,000 bridge term loan (the “Bridge Term Loan”), which provided additional financing to acquire the Carlyle master lease agreement. The maturity date for the Bridge Term Loan is the date that is 364 days after July 10, 2025.

In connection with the Fifteenth Amendment, the Bridge Term Loan was repaid in full and no amounts are outstanding.

First Lien Credit Agreement Covenants: Obligations owed under the First Lien Credit Agreement are secured by a first priority security interest on substantially all assets of Lucky Strike. and the guarantor subsidiaries. The First Lien Credit Agreement contains customary events of default, restrictions on indebtedness, liens, investments, asset dispositions, dividends and affirmative and negative covenants. The Company is subject to a financial covenant requiring that the First Lien Leverage Ratio (as defined in the First Lien Credit Agreement) not exceed 6.00:1.00 as of the end of any fiscal quarter if amounts outstanding on the Revolver exceed an amount equal to 40% of the aggregate Revolver commitment (subject to certain exclusions) at the end of such fiscal quarter. In addition, payment of borrowings under the Revolver may be accelerated if there is an event of default, and Lucky Strike would no longer be permitted to borrow additional funds under the Revolver while a default or event of default were outstanding.

7.25% Senior Secured Notes Covenants: The Notes are secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company and certain wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company. The Indenture contains customary restrictive covenants and events of default.

Letters of Credit: Outstanding standby letters of credit as of September 28, 2025 and June 29, 2025 totaled $24,122 and $22,422, respectively, and are guaranteed by JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A. The available amount of the Revolver is reduced by the outstanding standby letters of credit.

The loan matures August 19, 2029 and bears a fixed interest rate of 6.24%. The loan is repaid on a monthly basis in fixed payments of $153 plus a final payment at maturity. The loan obligation is secured by a lien on the equipment.

Covenant Compliance: The Company was in compliance with all debt covenants as of September 28, 2025.

Interest rate collars: The Company entered into two interest rate collars effective as of March 31, 2023 for an aggregate notional amount of our term loan of $800,000. The collar hedging strategy stabilizes interest rate fluctuations by setting both a floor and a cap. The hedge transactions have a trade and hedge designation date of April 4, 2023. The hedge transactions, each for a notional amount of $400,000, provide for interest rate collars. The interest rate collars establish a floor on SOFR of 0.9429% and 0.9355%, respectively, and a cap on SOFR of 5.50%. The interest rate collars have a maturity date of March 31, 2026.

The fair value of the collar agreements as of September 28, 2025 and June 29, 2025 was a liability of $1 and $16, respectively, and is included within the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Since SOFR was within the collar cap and floor rates, there was no interest impact on the condensed consolidated statement of operations.

(8) Income Taxes

The Company uses the estimated annual effective tax rate method for calculating its tax provision in interim periods, which represents the Company's best estimate of the effective tax rate expected for the full year. Certain items, including those deemed to be unusual, infrequent or that cannot be reliably estimated (discrete items), are excluded from the estimated annual effective tax rate, and the related tax expense or benefit is reported in the same period as the related item. The Company’s effective tax rate for the three months ended September 28, 2025 was 48%, which differs from the US federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to the change in fair value of the earnout liability, increase to the valuation allowance against the deferred tax asset for business interest expense that cannot be deducted under IRC Section 163(j), permanent differences, and other discrete tax items. The Company’s effective tax rate for the three months ended September 29, 2024 was (75)%, which differs from the US federal statutory rate of 21% due to the change in fair value of the earnout liability, permanent differences, and other discrete tax items.

On July 4, 2025, the U.S. government enacted The One Big Beautiful Bill Act of 2025. The most significant impact to the Company under the bill was the permanent reinstatement of bonus depreciation on qualified property and modifications to the calculation for excess business interest expense limitation under IRC Section 163(j) to the current tax estimate. The Company will continue to monitor the potential impacts of the bill on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

(9) Commitments and Contingencies

From time to time, we are involved in various inquiries, investigations, claims, lawsuits and other legal proceedings that are incidental to the conduct of our business. These matters typically involve claims from customers, employees or other third parties involved in operational issues common to the retail, restaurant and entertainment industries. Such matters typically represent actions with respect to contracts, intellectual property, taxation, employment, employee benefits, personal injuries and other matters. A number of such claims may exist at any given time and there are currently a number of claims and legal proceedings pending against us. While it is not feasible to predict the outcome of all claims and legal proceedings and exposures with certainty, management believes that their ultimate disposition should not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

(10) Earnouts

There were 11,418,280 and 11,418,291 unvested earnout shares outstanding as of September 28, 2025 and June 29, 2025, respectively.

The outstanding unvested earnout shares will vest if the closing share price of Lucky Strike’s Class A common stock equals or exceeds $17.50 per share for any 10 trading days within any consecutive 20 trading day period that occurs from December 15, 2021 through December 15, 2026.

All but 39,708 earnout shares are classified as a liability and changes in the fair value of the earnout shares are recognized in the statement of operations. Those earnout shares not classified as a liability are classified as equity compensation to employees and recognized as compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the expected term or upon the contingency being met.

See Note 11 - Fair Value of Financial Instruments for a summary of changes in the estimated fair value of the earnout shares for the period ended September 28, 2025 and September 29, 2024.

Series A Preferred Stock

Dividends accumulate on a cumulative basis on a 360-day year commencing from the issue date. The dividend rate is fixed at 5.5% per annum on a liquidation preference of $1,000 per share. Payment dates are June 30 and December 31 of each year with a record date of June 15 for the June 30 payment date and December 15 for the December 31 payment date. Declared dividends will be paid in cash if the Company declares the dividend to be paid in cash. If the Company does not pay all or any portion of the dividends that have accumulated as of any payment date, then the dollar amount of the dividends not paid in cash will be added to the liquidation preference and deemed to be declared and paid in-kind. For the three months ended September 28, 2025, accumulated dividends in the amount of $3,502 were added to the liquidation preference and deemed to be declared and paid in-kind. For the three months ended September 28, 2025, dividends in the amount of $1,798 were accumulated on the Preferred Stock.

Share Repurchase Program

On February 7, 2022, the Company announced that its Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program providing for repurchases of up to $200,000 of the Company’s outstanding Class A common stock through February 3, 2024. On each of May 15, 2023, September 6, 2023 and February 2, 2024, the Board of Directors authorized a replenishment of then-remaining balance of the share repurchase program to $200,000, which in aggregate increased the total amount that has been authorized under the share repurchase program to approximately $551,518. On February 2, 2024, the Board of Directors extended the share repurchase program indefinitely. Treasury stock purchases are stated at cost and presented as a reduction of equity on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Repurchases of shares are made in accordance with applicable securities laws and may be made from time to time in the open market or by negotiated transactions. The amount and timing of repurchases are based on a variety of factors, including stock price, regulatory limitations, debt agreement limitations, and other market and economic factors. The share repurchase program does not require the Company to repurchase any specific number of shares, and the Company may terminate the repurchase program at any time.

Overview

Lucky Strike Entertainment is one of the world’s premier operators of location-based entertainment. The Company operates traditional bowling locations and more upscale entertainment concepts with lounge seating, arcades, enhanced food and beverage offerings, and more robust customer service for individuals and group events, as well as hosting and overseeing professional and non-professional bowling tournaments and related broadcasting. The Company also operates other forms of location-based entertainment, such as family entertainment centers (FEC’s) and water parks. Our other entertainment brands include Octane Raceway, Raging Waves water park, Shipwreck Island water park, Big Kahuna’s water park, Wet ‘n Wild Emerald Pointe water park, Castle Park and Boomers Parks.

The Company remains focused on creating long-term shareholder value through continued organic growth, the conversion and upgrading of locations to more upscale entertainment concepts offering a broader range of offerings, the opening of new locations and acquisitions.

Recent Developments

Lucky Strike’s results for the three months ended September 28, 2025 exhibited the expected total revenue growth and further expansion of our three verticals: bowling, water parks, and high-quality FEC’s. To highlight the Company’s recent activity during the three months ended September 28, 2025:

•We reported total revenue growth of 12%.

•We acquired 58 existing properties that were previously under a master lease agreement with Carlyle for $306,000. Spanning 16 states, the 58 property portfolio includes prime locations in California, Illinois, Georgia, Arizona, and Colorado. This transaction represents a major step forward in the Company’s long-term growth strategy by reducing annual rent obligations as a result of removing the associated lease liabilities and unlocking powerful financial and operational flexibility.

•We completed the acquisition of Wet ‘n Wild Emerald Pointe water park, Castle Park, and two additional Boomers Parks locations.

•We signed a definitive agreement to acquire Raging Waters Los Angeles, a premier water park in California, which is expected to be completed in fiscal 2026.

•We refinanced our existing term loan for a $1,200,000 Term Loan, issued $500,000 of Senior Secured Notes, and increased our Revolver commitment to $425,000.

Trends

There are a number of factors that could materially affect our future profitability, including changing economic conditions with the resulting impact on our sales, profitability, and capital spending, changes in our debt levels and applicable interest rates, and increasing prices of labor and inventory, which includes food and beverage costs. Additionally, sales and results of operations could be impacted by acquisitions and restructuring projects. Restructuring can include various projects, including closure of locations not performing well, cost reductions through staffing reductions, and optimizing and allocating resources to improve profitability.

Our operating results fluctuate seasonally. For bowling locations, we typically generate our highest sales volumes during the third quarter of each fiscal year due to the timing of leagues, holidays and changing weather conditions. For FEC and water park locations, we typically generate our highest sales volumes during the fourth and first quarters of our fiscal years due to more favorable weather conditions and the timing of operating seasons. School operating schedules, holidays and weather conditions may also affect our sales volumes in some operating regions differently than others. Because of the seasonality of our business, results for any quarter are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be achieved for our full fiscal year.

Index to Notes

Revenues: For the quarter ended September 28, 2025, revenues totaled $292,278 and represented an increase of $32,083, or 12%, over the same period of last fiscal year. The increase is primarily attributable to newly acquired or opened locations.

The following table summarizes our revenues on a same-store-basis for the quarter ended September 28, 2025 as compared to the corresponding period last fiscal year:


	Three Months Ended
(in thousands)	September 28, 2025		September 29, 2024		Change		% Change
Revenues on a same-store basis (1)	$	254,480	$	255,435	$	(955)	—	%
Revenues for media, new and closed locations	37,212		4,110		33,102		*
Service fee revenue (2)	586		650		(64)		(10)	%
Total revenues	$	292,278	$	260,195	$	32,083	12	%

(1) Revenues from 351 locations are included in the same-store comparable location base for the comparison in the above table. In our previously filed Form 10-Q for the three months ended September 29, 2024, revenues from 327 locations were included in the same-store revenue.

(2) Service fee revenue is a mandatory gratuity passed through to the employee, which is a non-contributor to earnings and is being phased out across our locations.

*Represents a change equal to or in excess of 100% or one that is not meaningful.

Same-store revenues includes revenue from locations that are open in periods presented (open in both the current period and the prior period being reported) and excludes revenues from locations that are not open in periods presented such as acquired new locations or locations closed for upgrades, renovations or other such reasons, as well as media revenues and service fee revenues. Same-store revenues remained relatively flat during the quarter ended September 28, 2025 relative to the same period of last fiscal year. The walk-in business for same-store bowling entertainment locations remained strong during the quarter, contributing approximately $3,200 of comparable store revenue, which was offset by decreases in our offline events business.

Location operating costs: Location operating costs primarily consist of rent, utilities, insurance, repairs & maintenance, property taxes, supplies, marketing, and other costs associated with Company locations. Location operating costs include both fixed and variable components and therefore do not directly correlate with revenue.

Location operating costs as a percent of revenues remained flat at 33%, driven by our ability to leverage fixed costs as our revenue scales. Compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2025, location operating costs increased $11,598, or 13%, which was mainly attributable to location count growth from acquisitions. For instance, the acquisitions of water parks and FEC’s contributed $8,300 to the increase. Additionally, advertising increased approximately $2,300 compared to the previous year, which we believe assisted in driving higher retail entertainment revenue.

On July 10, 2025, the Company acquired 58 existing properties that were previously under a master lease agreement with Carlyle for $306,000. As a result of this transaction, operating lease costs decreased approximately $645 compared to the previous year. Since the properties were predominantly classified as finance leases, the additional decreases in costs are discussed further below under the sections titled Depreciation and amortization, and Interest expense, net.

Location payroll and benefit costs: Location payroll and benefit costs consist of employee costs that directly support location operations. Location payroll and benefit costs as a percent of revenues remained flat at 26%. Location payroll and benefit costs increased $7,808, or 12%, mainly driven by the impact of the acquisitions of water parks and FEC’s which contributed $6,300. The balance of the change was further driven by additional new builds and higher wages offset by a reduction in hours as we continue to optimize our staffing levels and mix.

Location food & beverage costs: Location food & beverage costs as a percentage of food & beverage revenue remained flat at 23%. Overall, location food & beverage costs increased $1,405, or 7%. The increase in location food & beverage costs is mainly attributable to a higher share of customer spending being directed toward food & beverage products and the impact of the acquisitions of water parks and FEC’s, which contributed $1,200.

Selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”): SG&A expenses increased $534 or 2%. SG&A expense as a percent of revenues decreased from 13% during fiscal 2025 to 12% during fiscal 2026, driven by continued cost management initiatives at the corporate level.

Table of Contents

Index to Notes

Depreciation and amortization: Depreciation and amortization decreased $3,788 or 10%. The decrease in depreciation and amortization reflects the change in estimated useful lives of fixed assets, which benefited from a decrease in expense of $7,444, as well as net decrease in depreciation and amortization of $450 from the purchase of the previously leased locations discussed above, offset by accelerated depreciation of $2,000 from a location closure, and additional depreciation from new locations and capital additions.

Interest expense, net: Interest expense primarily relates to interest on debt, finance leases, and financing obligations. Interest expense increased $4,727, or 10%. The higher interest expense is primarily attributable to the amortization of $3,300 of deferred financing costs associated with the Bridge Term Loan and increases in debt since the first quarter of fiscal 2025, offset by a $4,500 decrease in interest expense for finance leases due to the purchase of a previously leased assets.

Change in fair value of earnouts: The impact on the statement of operations during the quarter ended September 28, 2025 is due to the decrease in the fair value of the earnouts, which mainly reflects the decrease in the Company’s stock volatility in the current quarter.

Income tax benefit: The income tax benefit and deferred tax assets and liabilities reflect management’s assessment of the Company’s tax position. The effective tax rate of 48% for the quarter ended September 28, 2025 was primarily attributed to the change in fair value of the earnout liability, unrealizable Section 163(j) interest limitation, and permanent differences.

Non-GAAP measure

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that is not in accordance with, or an alternative to, measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. The Company believes certain financial measures which meet the definition of non-GAAP financial measures provide important supplemental information. The Company considers Adjusted EBITDA as an important financial measure because it provides a financial measure of the quality of the Company’s earnings. Other companies may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do, which might limit its usefulness as a comparative measure. Adjusted EBITDA is used by management in addition to and in conjunction with the results presented in accordance with GAAP. We have presented Adjusted EBITDA solely as a supplemental disclosure because we believe it allows for a more complete analysis of results of operations and assists investors and analysts in comparing our operating performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance, such as Interest Expense, Income Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization, Impairment Charges, Share-based Compensation, EBITDA from Closed Locations, Foreign Currency Exchange Loss (Gain), Asset Disposition Loss (Gain), Transactional and other advisory costs, Changes in the value of earnouts, and Other. Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP.

Refer to notes below for additional details concerning the respective items for Adjusted EBITDA.

Notes to Adjusted EBITDA:

(1)The closed location adjustment is to remove EBITDA for closed locations. Closed locations are those locations that are closed for a variety of reasons, including permanent closure, newly acquired or built locations prior to opening, locations closed for renovation or rebranding and conversion. If a location is not open on the last day of the reporting period, it will be considered closed for that reporting period. If the location is closed on the first day of the reporting period for permanent closure, the location will be considered closed for that reporting period.

(2)The adjustment for transaction costs and other advisory costs is to remove charges incurred in connection with any transaction, including mergers, acquisitions, refinancing, amendment or modification to indebtedness, and dispositions, in each case, regardless of whether consummated.

(3)The adjustment for changes in the value of earnouts is to remove of the impact of the revaluation of the earnouts. Changes in the fair value of the earnout liability is recognized in the statement of operations. Decreases in the liability will have a favorable impact on the statement of operations and increases in the liability will have an unfavorable impact.

(4)Other includes the following related to transactions that do not represent ongoing or frequently recurring activities as part of the Company’s operations: (i) non-routine expenses, net of recoveries for matters outside the normal course of business, (ii) severance expense, and (iii) other individually de minimis expenses.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We manage our liquidity through assessing available cash-on-hand, our ability to generate cash and our ability to borrow or otherwise raise capital to fund operating, investing and financing activities.

A core tenet of our long-term strategy is to grow the size and scale of the Company in order to improve our operating profit margins through leveraging our fixed costs. As such, one of the Company’s known cash requirements is for capital expenditures related to the construction of new locations and upgrading and converting existing locations. We believe our financial position, generation of cash, available cash-on-hand, existing credit facility, and access to potentially obtain additional financing from sale-lease-back transactions or other sources will provide sufficient capital resources to fund our operational requirements, capital expenditures, and material short and long-term commitments for the foreseeable future. We also plan to use available cash-on-hand to fund our share repurchase program, which was implemented as a method to return value to our shareholders. However, there are a number of factors that may hinder our ability to access these capital resources, including but not limited to our degree of leverage, and potential borrowing restrictions imposed by our lenders. See “Risk Factors” included in our previously filed Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 29, 2025 for further information.

At September 28, 2025, we had approximately $31,032 of available cash and cash equivalents.

Three Months Ended September 28, 2025 Compared to the Three Months Ended September 29, 2024

The following compares the primary categories of the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the period ended September 28, 2025 and September 29, 2024:


	Three Months Ended				$ Change		% Change
(in thousands)	September 28, 2025		September 29, 2024
Net cash (used in) provided by operating activities	$	(6,408)	$	29,413	$	(35,821)	*
Net cash used in investing activities	(315,147)		(39,924)		(275,223)		*
Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities	292,671		(17,806)		310,477		*
Effect of exchange rate changes on cash	230		(207)		437		*
Net change in cash and cash equivalents	$	(28,654)	$	(28,524)	$	(130)	—	%

_________

*Represents a change equal to or in excess of 100% or one that is not meaningful.

Operating activities used $6,408 as compared to providing $29,413 during the same period of the prior fiscal year. The increase in cash used in operating activities primarily reflects a decrease in tenant improvement allowances of $8,287, as well as a decrease due to timing of vendor payments in accounts payable and accrued expenses as compared to the prior year.

Investing activities used $315,147 as compared to $39,924 during the same period of the prior fiscal year. The increase in cash used in investing activities mainly reflects the purchase of a previously leased asset as well as an increase in acquisition activity as compared to the same period of the prior year.

Financing activities provided $292,671 as compared to using $17,806 during the same period of the prior fiscal year. The increase in cash provided by financing activities primarily reflects the proceeds from the Fifteenth Amendment to the First Lien Credit Agreement and the issuance of Senior Secured Notes. This was partially offset by the repayment of outstanding debt and payment of deferred financing costs.

Our contractual obligations primarily include, but are not limited to, debt service, self-insurance liabilities, and leasing arrangements. We believe our sources of liquidity, namely available cash on hand, history of generating positive operating cash flows, and access to capital markets will continue to be adequate to meet our contractual obligations, as well as fund working capital, planned capital expenditures, location acquisitions, and execute purchases under our share repurchase program.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Our critical accounting estimates are discussed in Part II, Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 29, 2025 under “Critical Accounting Estimates.” There have been no significant changes in our critical accounting estimates during the quarter ended September 28, 2025.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

See Note 1 - Description of Business and Significant Accounting Policies of the notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for information regarding new accounting pronouncements.

Emerging Growth Company Accounting Election

We are currently an emerging growth company, as defined in the JOBS Act. Under the JOBS Act, emerging growth companies can delay adopting new or revised accounting standards until such time as those standards apply to private companies. We have elected to use this extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until the earlier of the date we (i) are no longer an emerging growth company or (ii) affirmatively and irrevocably opt out of the extended transition period provided in the JOBS Act. As a result, our financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with new or revised accounting pronouncements as of public company effective dates.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We are exposed to market risk from changes in, among other things, interest rates, credit risk, labor costs, health insurance claims and foreign currency exchange rates, which could impact its results of operations and financial condition. We attempt to address our exposure to these risks through our normal operating and financing activities.

Interest Rate Risk

Under our term and revolving credit facilities, we are exposed to a certain level of interest rate risk. Interest on the principal amount of our borrowings under our revolving credit facility loan accrues at the Adjusted Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate or the Alternate Base Rate, as further described in the credit agreement governing our term and revolving credit facilities. An increase or decrease of 1.0% in the effective interest rate would cause an increase or decrease to interest expense of approximately $12,000 over a twelve month period on our outstanding debt without considering the impact of hedging. The Company entered into two hedging transactions effective as of March 31, 2023 for an aggregate notional amount of our term loan of $800,000. The hedge transactions have a trade and hedge designation date of April 4, 2023. The hedge transactions, each for a notional amount of $400,000, provide for interest rate collars. The interest rate collars establish a floor on SOFR of 0.9429% and 0.9355%, respectively, and a cap on SOFR of 5.50%. The interest rate collars have a maturity date of March 31, 2026.

Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject us to significant concentrations of credit risk consist of cash and temporary investments. We are exposed to credit losses in the event of non-performance by counter parties to our financial instruments. We place cash and temporary investments with various high-quality financial institutions. Although we do not obtain collateral or other security to secure these obligations, we periodically monitor the third-party depository institutions that hold our cash and cash equivalents. Our emphasis is primarily on safety and liquidity of principal and secondarily on maximizing yield on those funds.

Commodity Price Risk

We are exposed to market price fluctuation in food, beverage, supplies and other costs such as energy. Given the historical volatility of certain of our food product prices, including proteins, produce, dairy products, and cooking oil, these fluctuations can materially impact our food costs. While our purchasing commitments partially mitigate the risk of such fluctuations, there is no assurance that supply and demand factors such as disease or inclement weather will not cause the prices of the commodities used in our food operations to fluctuate. Additionally, the cost of purchased materials may be influenced by tariffs and other trade regulations which are outside of our control. To the extent that we do not pass along cost increases to our customers, our results of operations may be adversely affected.

Inflation

We experience inflation related to our purchase of certain products that we need to operate our business. This price volatility could potentially have a material impact on our financial condition and/or our results of operations. In order to mitigate price volatility, we monitor price fluctuations and may adjust our prices accordingly, however, our ability to recover higher costs through increased pricing may be limited by the competitive environment in which we operate.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed pursuant to the Exchange Act is properly and timely reported and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that these disclosure controls and procedures are effective as of September 28, 2025.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes to our internal control over financial reporting practices or processes that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting during our first quarter ended September 28, 2025.
