ORLANDO, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Falcon’s Beyond Global, Inc. (Nasdaq: FBYD) (“Falcon’s Beyond”, “Falcon’s” or the “Company”), a visionary leader in innovative and immersive storytelling through its divisions Falcon’s Creative Group (“FCG”), Falcon’s Beyond Destinations (“FBD”), and Falcon’s Beyond Brands (“FBB”) today reported its financial results for the second quarter of fiscal year 2025 ended June 30, 2025.

Second Quarter 2025 Financial Results

Revenue:

• Falcon’s Beyond generated consolidated revenues of $2.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 representing fees for corporate and shared services earned from its FCG division, management fees from its Producciones de Parques, S.L. (“PDP”) 50:50 joint venture with Melia Hotels Int’l, and attraction spares and maintenance service fees from its Falcon's Beyond Brands division.
• FCG recorded revenues of $12.3 million in the three months ended June 30, 2025, representing a decrease of $3.4 million, or 21.6%, over the corresponding period of 2024 primarily due to timing of project performance obligations. FCG recorded operating income of $2.4 million and a net income of $2.3 million in the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared with operating income of $2.3 million and net income of $2.5 million for the corresponding 2024 period. After the Qiddiya Investment Company's (QIC) preferred return and amortization of basis difference, Falcon’s Beyond’s share of net income from FCG was $0.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025.
• PDP recognized revenues from continuing operations of $6.5 million in the three months ended June 30, 2025, a $0.6 million increase over the corresponding period of 2024. In May 2025, PDP completed the sale of the Sol Tenerife hotel and accordingly, the results of the operations of this hotel were reclassified to discontinued operations by the JV for all periods presented. Net income from continuing operations operations increased $0.9 million to $0.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared with an operating loss of ($0.1) million for the corresponding period of 2024. Net income was $60.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 reflecting the gain on sale of disposal of the hotel property. Falcon’s Beyond’s share of the gain on disposal of Tenerife was $29.8 million from PDP for three months ended June 30, 2025.

Net Income:

• Falcon’s Beyond’s consolidated net income of $25.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, increased $17.1 million compared with the corresponding 2024 period, primarily driven by a $29.8 million share of the gain from the sale of the Tenerife hotel, $3.5 million credit to transaction expenses due to settlement with a provider of services to the Company in the 2023 business combination, a $1.6 million increase in unrealized foreign currency transactional gains, and a $2.6 million quarter-over-quarter change in fair value of warrant liabilities, partially offset by a $5.3 million other than temporary impairment of our remaining investment in PDP, a $13.0 million decrease in change in the fair value of earnout liabilities, a $0.3 million decrease in share of income from equity method investments, a $0.4 million increase in interest expense, and a $1.3 million increase in other operating expenses related to the new Falcon's Attractions business.

EBITDA:

• Falcon's Beyond's adjusted EBITDA⁽¹⁾ loss decreased $0.2 million to $(1.7) million loss for the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared with $(1.9) million loss for the corresponding 2024 period. Such decrease in loss was driven by an increase of $1.6 million in foreign exchange transaction gains, partially offset by a decrease of $0.3 million in share of gain from equity method investments, and an increase of $1.1 million in losses from operations primarily from the integration of the OES acquisition.

_____________
(1)	Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure. See “Use and Definition of Non-GAAP Financial Measure" below for more information and a reconciliation to the most directly comparable GAAP measure.

Other Business Highlights

• Oceaneering Entertainment Systems ("OES") Transaction: On May 9, 2025, the Company acquired key assets of Oceaneering Entertainment System (“OES”), a division of Oceaneering International Inc. (“OII”). In the transaction, the Company purchased certain tangible assets, OES’s portfolio of intellectual property, including patented technologies, proprietary engineering and manufacturing processes, and assumed the lease for a 106,000+ square-foot facility in Orlando, FL to be utilized by the Falcon's Beyond Brands division to bolster Falcon’s research, development, manufacturing, and attraction integration services, in addition to hiring key members of OES’ highly experienced team in February 2025.
• Tenerife Hotel Sale: On May 30, 2025, the Company, through its PDP joint venture with Melia, completed the sale of the Sol Tenerife Hotel to Melia and its other third-party joint venture partner. The transaction was structured as a sale of all of the shares of Tertian XXI, S.L., a wholly-owned subsidiary of PDP which owned the real estate assets comprising of the resort hotel. The purchasers paid an aggregate of €71 million, subject to post closing adjustments. PDP distributed $27 million to the Company from the net proceeds of the transaction.

Use and Definition of Non-GAAP Financial Measure

We prepare our consolidated financial statements in accordance with US GAAP. In addition to disclosing financial results prepared in accordance with US GAAP, we disclose information regarding Adjusted EBITDA which is a non-GAAP measure. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss), determined in accordance with US GAAP, for the period presented, before net interest and expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization, transaction expenses related to the business combination, credit loss expense related to the closure of the Sierra Parima Katmandu Park, share of equity method investee’s impairment of fixed assets, impairment of equity method investments, change in fair value of warrant liabilities, change in fair value of earnout liabilities, intangible asset impairment loss, and gain on deconsolidation of FCG.

We believe that Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors as it eliminates the non-cash depreciation and amortization expense that results from our capital investments and intangible assets recognized in any business combination and improves comparability by eliminating the interest expense associated with our debt facilities, and eliminating the change in fair value of warrant and earnout liabilities, which may not be comparable with other companies based on our structure.

Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under US GAAP. Some of these limitations are (i) it does not reflect our cash expenditures, or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments, (ii) it does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs, (iii) it does not reflect interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments, on our debt, (iv) although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements, (v) it does not adjust for all non-cash income or expense items that are reflected in our statements of cash flows, and (vi) other companies in our industry may calculate these measures differently than we do, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures.
