Description: MTN Vail Resorts November 07, 2025

Vail Resorts, Inc. (NYSE: MTN) operates a portfolio of mountain resorts and ski areas across the United States and abroad, complemented by lodging, real-estate, and ancillary services.

The business is organized into three segments: (1) Mountain – destination ski resorts, regional ski areas, ski schools, dining, retail/rental, and real-estate brokerage; (2) Lodging – ownership or management of luxury hotels, condominiums, golf courses, and ground-transport services under the RockResorts brand; (3) Real Estate – development, ownership, and sale of property assets.

Key performance indicators that investors watch include the Epic Pass subscriber base (≈ 2.5 million in 2023, driving ~ 30 % of total revenue), average daily rate (ADR) for lodging (≈ $280 in FY 2023, up 7 % YoY), and same-store sales growth at mountain locations (≈ 5 % annualized). The segment’s revenue is highly sensitive to discretionary consumer spending and winter weather patterns, while inflation and labor costs exert pressure on operating margins.
