Emerald Reports Third Quarter 2024 Financial Results
Company Accelerates Portfolio Optimization Initiatives - Discontinues Several Smaller, Unprofitable Events Totaling $20 million of Run-Rate Revenue
NEW YORK, N.Y. – October 30, 2024 – Emerald Holding, Inc. (NYSE: EEX) (“Emerald” or the “Company”), America’s largest producer of trade shows and their associated conferences, content and commerce, today reported financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2024.
Financial Highlights
Operational and Capital Structure Updates
Hervé Sedky, Emerald’s President and Chief Executive Officer, said, “We managed through several operational initiatives in our Connections business this quarter, including accelerating our portfolio optimization efforts. This, combined with sustained softness in our Content business, impacted our performance and resulted in our outlook for the year to be below prior expectations. Despite these near-term effects, our overall Connections pacing into H1 2025 is showing accelerated growth, driving expectations for improved results in the new year.
We pruned twenty select, non-core events which, in aggregate, were a drag on organic growth and weren’t contributing to profitability. While this process is expected to enhance our overall growth rate, margin and profitability in 2025, it will have a negative impact on our 2024 performance. We are also working to address softness in our Content business, which accounts for just 5% of revenue, where a challenging advertising environment in several of our end markets continues to weigh on our performance. We have a profitable portfolio of well-known and respected events and are committed to building this portfolio through new event launches as well as accretive acquisitions in the coming year.”
David Doft, Emerald’s Chief Financial Officer, added, “We feel confident that the changes to the makeup of our portfolio and more aggressive efforts in our Content business leave us well positioned for strength in 2025 and beyond. Our forward visibility into trade
show booking, including into the first half of 2025, as well as the critical place of trade shows in companies’ marketing budgets, gives us confidence in our ability to deliver year-over-year growth as we cycle past these near-term effects.”

Non-GAAP Financial Information
This press release presents certain “non-GAAP” financial measures. The components of these non-GAAP measures are computed by using amounts that are determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). These non-GAAP financial measures are in addition to, and not as a substitute for or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures enhance the reader’s understanding of our past financial performance and our prospects for the future. The non-GAAP financial information is presented for supplemental informational purposes only and should not be considered a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP and may be different from similarly titled non-GAAP measures used by other companies. A reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures used in this press release to their nearest comparable GAAP financial measures is included in the schedules attached hereto.
Organic Revenue
We define “Organic revenue growth” and “Organic revenue decline” as the growth or decline, respectively, in our revenue from one period to the next, adjusted for the revenue impact of: (i) acquisitions and dispositions, (ii) discontinued events and (iii) material show scheduling adjustments. We disclose changes in Organic revenue because we believe it assists investors and analysts in comparing Emerald’s operating performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that we do not believe provide a fair comparison of the trends underlying our existing event portfolio given changes in timing or strategy. Management and Emerald’s board of directors evaluate changes in Organic revenue to evaluate our historical and prospective financial performance and understand underlying revenue trends of our events.
Adjusted EBITDA
We use Adjusted EBITDA because we believe it assists investors and analysts in comparing Emerald’s operating performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance. Management and Emerald’s board of directors use Adjusted EBITDA to assess our financial performance and believe it is helpful in highlighting trends because it excludes the results of decisions that are outside the control of management, while other measures can differ significantly depending on long-term strategic decisions regarding capital structure, the tax jurisdictions in which we operate, and capital investments. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net income as a measure of financial performance or to cash flows from operations as a liquidity measure.
We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income before (i) interest expense, net, (ii) provision for income taxes, (iii) depreciation and amortization, (iv) stock-based compensation, (v) goodwill and other intangible asset impairment charges and (vi) other items that management believes are not part of our core operations.
We have also presented Adjusted EBITDA excluding event cancellation insurance proceeds in order to illustrate the amount of Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations.
Note: Schedule 3 provides reconciliations for 2024 and 2023 Adjusted EBITDA to net (loss) income, however, it is not possible, without unreasonable efforts, to estimate the impacts of show scheduling adjustments, acquisitions and certain other special items that may occur in 2024 as these items are inherently uncertain and difficult to predict. As a result, the Company is unable to quantify certain amounts that would be included in a reconciliation of 2024 projected Adjusted EBITDA to projected net income without unreasonable efforts and has not provided reconciliations for these forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures.
Free Cash Flow
We present Free Cash Flow because we believe it is a useful indicator of liquidity that provides information to management and investors about the amount of cash generated from our core operations that, after capital expenditures, can be used to maintain and grow our business, for the repayment of indebtedness, payment of dividends and to fund strategic opportunities. Free Cash Flow is a supplemental non-GAAP measure of liquidity and is not based on any standardized methodology prescribed by GAAP. Free Cash Flow should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities or other measures determined in accordance with GAAP.
We have also presented Free Cash Flow excluding event cancellation insurance proceeds, net in order to illustrate the amount of Free Cash Flow from continuing operations.
Other companies may compute these measures differently. No non-GAAP metric should be considered as an alternative to any other measure derived in accordance with GAAP.
Cautionary Statement Concerning Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains and our earnings call will contain certain forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to, statements regarding our ability to return our business to pre-COVID levels; general economic conditions, or more specifically about the markets in which we operate, including growth of our various markets, and our expectations, beliefs, plans, strategies, objectives, prospects, assumptions or future events or performance; the multiple avenues to return to organic growth; expectations regarding interest rates and economic conditions, among others; our guidance with respect to estimated revenues and Adjusted EBITDA; our ability or inability to obtain insurance coverage relating to event cancellations or interruptions; our intention to continue to pay regular quarterly dividends; and our ability to successfully identify and acquire acquisition targets; our expectations arising from the ongoing impact of COVID-19 on our business; and how we integrate and grow acquired businesses. In particular, the declaration, timing and amount of any future dividends will be subject to the discretion and approval of the Board and will depend on a number of factors, including Company’s results of operations, cash flows, financial position and capital requirements, any applicable restrictions under the Company’s debt facilities, as well as general business conditions, legal, tax and regulatory restrictions and other factors the Board deems relevant at the time it determines to declare such dividends. These statements are based on management’s current expectations as well as estimates and assumptions prepared by management as of the date hereof, and although they are believed to be reasonable, they are inherently uncertain and not guaranteed. These statements involve risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, economic, competitive, governmental and technological factors outside of the Company’s control that may cause its business, industry, strategy, financing activities or actual results to differ materially. See “Risk Factors” and “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” in the Company’s most recently filed periodic reports on Form 10-K and Form 10-Q and subsequent filings. The Company undertakes no obligation to update or revise any of the forward-looking statements contained herein, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

This presentation contains certain forward-looking statements regarding Emerald Holding, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”), including, without limitation, statements regarding the Company’s ability to continue staging live events and scale its business beyond pre-COVID levels; statements about general economic conditions, or more specifically about the markets in which the Company operates, and the Company’s expectations, beliefs, plans, strategies, objectives, prospects, assumptions or future events or performance; the multiple avenues to return to organic growth; expectations regarding interest rates and economic conditions and the Company’s 2024 financial guidance expectations; the Company’s ability to successfully identify and acquire acquisition targets; and the Company’s intention to continue to pay regular quarterly dividends, among others. In particular, the declaration, timing and amount of any future dividends will be subject to the discretion and approval of the Company’s Board of Directors, and will depend on a number of factors. The forward-looking statements contained herein are based on management’s current expectations as well as estimates and assumptions prepared by management as of the date hereof, and although they are believed to be reasonable, they are inherently uncertain and not guaranteed. These statements involve risks and uncertainties outside of the Company’s control that may cause actual results, performance, or achievements, to differ materially and there can be no assurance that the projected results and forward-looking statements in this presentation will prove to be accurate. In addition, even if our results of operations, financial condition and liquidity, and events in the industry in which we operate, are consistent with the forward-looking statements contained in this report, they may not be predictive of results or developments in future periods. Given these risks and uncertainties, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements. Forward looking statements include all statements that are not historical facts and can be identified by terms such as “anticipate,” “believe, “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “might,” “objective,” “ongoing,” “plan,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “seek,” “should,” “target,” “will,” or “would” or similar expressions and the negatives of those terms. For factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements in this presentation, please see the risks and uncertainties identified under the headings “Risk Factors” and “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” in the Company’s most recently filed annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, which is available on the Company’s Investor Relations website at investor.emeraldx.com and on the SEC’s EDGAR website at www.sec.gov. The Company disclaims any obligation to update or revise any of the forward-looking statements contained herein, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Past results are not indicative of future performance. Industry and Market Information To the extent this presentation includes information concerning the industry and the markets in which the Company operates, including general observations, expectations, market position, market opportunity and market size, such information is based on management's knowledge and experience in the markets in which the Company operates, including publicly available information from independent industry analysts and publications, which the Company believes to be reasonable, but which are inherently uncertain and imprecise. Accordingly, you are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such market and industry information. Non-GAAP Financial Information This presentation also includes certain non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures are in addition to, and should not be considered as a substitute for or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). The non-GAAP measures included herein may be different from similarly titled non-GAAP measures used by other companies. A reconciliation is provided herein for each non-GAAP financial measure to the most directly comparable financial measure stated in accordance with GAAP. Readers are encouraged to review the related GAAP financial measures and the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.
