Shares of ski resort company Vail Resorts, Inc. (NYSE:MTN) increased in the first quarter due to increased visitation and spend levels in a strong ski season. We believe Vail’s recent acquisitions of Whistler Blackcomb, Park City, and Perisher continue to help drive season pass sales and visitation, which, in turn, help insulate earnings from poor snowfall seasons and improve cash flow.
