Six Flags to Sell Ohio, European Assets
Wednesday March 10, 8:19 am ET
PHILADELPHIA (Reuters) - Amusement park operator Six Flags Inc. (NYSE:PKS - News) said Wednesday it agreed to sell its Six Flags Worlds of Adventure theme park to Cedar Fair LP for $145 million, and sell its European division to a private investment firm for $200 million.
It will use the proceeds to cut its debt and fund other investments in its theme parks. It does not expect to sell any other parks.
The company said its Worlds of Adventure park in Cleveland had been its most difficult market, and would take several years and meaningful capital investment to improve. Meanwhile, the sale of the European assets would allow it to focus on its U.S. business.
Six Flags said it would book a loss in the first quarter of about $70 million for the Cleveland disposition, and about $220 million for the European assets.
