Peak Resorts, Inc. 

(NASDAQ:SKIS), a leading owner and operator of high-quality, individually branded ski resorts in the U.S., today reported preliminary results from the pre-season sales of the company’s 2017/18 season pass program. Consolidated season pass unit sales and sales revenue were both up 8.6% compared to the prior year.

“We are very encouraged by the continued strong interest in our Peak Pass, which is an affordable multi-resort product for skiers and riders in the New York City and Northeastern U.S. regions,” said Timothy D. Boyd, president and chief executive officer. “Despite the unusually warm weather we experienced throughout the past season, the growth in season pass sales signifies steady consumer demand for our ski resorts, while easing the weather impact on our financial performance.”
