• Sale of Canadian Property La Ronde Expected to Close in Second Quarter

Six Flags Entertainment Corporation (NYSE: FUN) (“Six Flags” or the “Company”), North America’s largest regional amusement park operator, today announced the successful closing of the previously announced sale of six of its U.S. parks to EPR Properties (NYSE: EPR) (“EPR”), marking a significant milestone in the Company’s ongoing portfolio optimization strategy.

The six U.S. parks now owned by EPR are Valleyfair (Minnesota), Worlds of Fun (Missouri), Michigan’s Adventure (Michigan), Schlitterbahn Waterpark Galveston (Texas), Six Flags St. Louis (Missouri), and Six Flags Great Escape (New York). The sale of Six Flags La Ronde (Montreal, QC) is expected to close in the second quarter of 2026, following the satisfaction of applicable closing conditions and receipt of required approvals.

“This divestiture reflects Six Flags’ disciplined approach to portfolio optimization and the decisive action we are taking to concentrate our capital and operational focus on properties with the greatest long-term growth potential,” said Six Flags President and CEO John Reilly. “This portfolio refinement further positions Six Flags to execute more effectively in 2026 and beyond, and I am confident in the opportunities ahead as we continue taking steps to drive improved operating performance, margin expansion, free cash flow generation, and earnings growth.”

EPR intends to partner with Enchanted Parks to run the six domestic properties. EPR will retain the right to utilize the Six Flags brand through the end of 2026, subject to certain requirements, and no significant impact on guests is expected during this transition. The parks will continue their regular operating schedules, and all season passes sold will be recognized through the 2026 operating season, including multi-park pass privileges at other parks within the Six Flags’ portfolio.
