Everything has gone wrong. Bad weather, including brutal heatwaves, led to park shutdowns in the summer which hurt seasonal pass sales. SIX depends on lower-income consumers, who are struggling with inflation these days. The new ride, Siren's Curse, their crown jewel broke down many times last summer. The merger with Cedar Fair hasn't boosted attendance, which is -9% year over year in Q2. SIX has delivered brutal quarters. They have a terrible balance sheet, with a 6.3 leverage ratio (3 is high).
