INVESTOR PRESENTATION – September 2016
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Some slides and comments included here, particularly related to estimates, comments on
expectations about future performance or business conditions, may contain “forward-looking
statements” within the meaning of the federal securities laws which involve risks and
uncertainties. You can identify forward-looking statements because they contain words such
as “believes,” “project,” “might,” “expects,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “seeks,” “approximately,”
“intends,” “plans,” “estimates” or “anticipates” or similar expressions that concern our strategy,
plans or intentions. These forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that
may change at anytime, and could cause actual results to differ materially from those that we
anticipate. While we believe that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements
are reasonable, we caution that it is very difficult to predict the impact of unknown factors, and
it is impossible for us to anticipate all factors that could affect our actual results. Important
factors, including those listed under Item 1A in the Partnership’s Form 10-K could adversely
affect our future financial performance and cause actual results to differ materially from our
expectations.

IMPROVING THE
GUEST EXPERIENCE
Our ability to drive pricing relies upon the delivery of
a quality guest experience, including rides and
attractions, live entertainment offerings and
exceptional guest service – all of which drive repeat
visits.
 Highly marketable new rides and attractions built to
scale
 Expanded entertainment and special event offerings
 “Best Day” experience for guests
 Opportunities to extend length-of-stay and drive
higher guest spending levels

Our expansion of Carolina Harbor in 2016
makes it the largest water park in the
Carolinas, offering an exclusive entrance,
private cabanas and best-in-class attractions
and amenities.
Halloween events offer a complete, immersive
experience at a quality and scale no other
regional amusement park or entertainment
venue can match. We are expanding
operations to other times of the year where we
can offer unique, immersive experiences at a
scale unmatched by others.

ENCOURAGING
ADVANCE SALES
By getting guests to purchase items ahead of time, we
are able to improve our visibility into market trends and
enhance revenue management capabilities; build a
buffer against traditional barriers to visitation, such as
weather and alternate entertainment options; and gain
favorable in-park spending elasticity.
 Steady expansion of season passes and special
offers
 All-season dining and beverage plans
 FunPix, a new digital imaging platform
 Installment payment programs
 Professional group sales teams and continued
investment in improved catering facilities

Installment payment programs have been
highly effective in growing season passes,
our most valuable advance purchase offering.

The All-Season Dining program has been a
meaningful contributor of revenue growth
since it was rolled out across all of our parks
in 2015.
In 2016, we introduced a new digital imaging
platform at our five largest parks, providing
opportunities for all guests to purchase their
photos in advance of their visit. This new
platform delivers photos to our guests
instantly, enhances their experience and
creates active social media connections.

business can enhance the overall guest experience,
promote sharing and socialization and provide greater
capital efficiencies through content and storyline
updates.

 Consumer self-service advantages
 Historical guest data from our CRM platform, now in
its fourth year

Our new mobile app solution enhances the
in-park experience by providing guests with
information they value, creating two-way
conversation with guests to drive increased
in-park spending and capturing valuable guest
data for CRM applications.

The assembly of multi-year consumer data
under one, cohesive system, not previously
available to us, will improve the effectiveness
of guest communications efforts going
forward.
As we determine the “sweet spot,” you will see
us continue to expand in the area of
“techtainment” – the merger of technology and
entertainment. Virtual reality, augmented
reality and emerging technologies give us
more tools to create a compelling guest
experience.

We continue to see the benefits of establishing
and delivering a differentiated brand position.
The addition of family-oriented attractions,
entertainment and “streetmosphere” – to an
already strong collection of thrill rides – has
been well received.
Renovation of the historic Hotel Breakers at
Cedar Point has increased the park’s position
as a super-regional, multi-day attraction. An
additional six-story tower is being added to the
classic beachfront property and is scheduled
to open in spring 2018.

calculation of Adjusted EBITDA and have included certain litigation expenses, costs assocated with certain ride abandonment or

(b) Adjusted EBITDA represents earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, other non-cash items, and adjustments as
defined in the 2013 Credit Agreement. The Company believes Adjusted EBITDA is a meaningful measure of park-level operating
profitability. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement of operating performance computed in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles and is not intended to be a substitute for operating income, net income or cash flow from operating activities, as
defined under generally accepted accounting principles. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures
of other companies.

  • 1. Cedar Fair (NYSE: FUN) INVESTOR PRESENTATION – September 2016
  • 2. FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS Some slides and comments included here, particularly related to estimates, comments on expectations about future performance or business conditions, may contain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the federal securities laws which involve risks and uncertainties. You can identify forward-looking statements because they contain words such as “believes,” “project,” “might,” “expects,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “seeks,” “approximately,” “intends,” “plans,” “estimates” or “anticipates” or similar expressions that concern our strategy, plans or intentions. These forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that may change at anytime, and could cause actual results to differ materially from those that we anticipate. While we believe that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, we caution that it is very difficult to predict the impact of unknown factors, and it is impossible for us to anticipate all factors that could affect our actual results. Important factors, including those listed under Item 1A in the Partnership’s Form 10-K could adversely affect our future financial performance and cause actual results to differ materially from our expectations. 2
