THE MARCUS CORPORATION Date: September 18, 2003 By: /s/ Douglas A. Neis ---------------------------------------- Douglas A. Neis Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer EX-99.1 3 cmw166a.txt PRESS RELEASE For additional information, contact: Douglas A. Neis (414) 905-1100 THE MARCUS CORPORATION REPORTS FIRST QUARTER RESULTS ---------------------------------------------------- Earnings from Continuing Operations Up 4.6%; Marcus Theatres(R) Again Achieves Record Results Milwaukee, Wis., September 18, 2003.....The Marcus Corporation (NYSE: MCS) today reported increased revenues and earnings from continuing operations for the first quarter ended August 28, 2003. Total revenues for the first quarter of fiscal 2004 were $120,795,000, a 1.0% increase from revenues of $119,577,000 for the first quarter of the prior year. Operating income for the first quarter of fiscal 2004 increased 1.9% to $25,641,000, from operating income of $25,155,000 for the comparable prior period. Earnings from continuing operations and net earnings were $12,945,000 or $0.44 per diluted share for the first quarter of fiscal 2004, a 4.6% increase in earnings from continuing operations from $12,371,000 or $0.42 per diluted share for the first quarter of the prior year. Net earnings of $13,587,000 or $0.46 per diluted share for the first quarter of fiscal 2003 included an additional gain on the sale of the company's former KFC restaurants. Continuing operations include The Marcus Corporation's theatre, limited-service lodging and hotels and resorts divisions. "We are pleased that we were able to increase earnings from continuing operations during a period that continued to be challenging for our two lodging divisions. Our diversity once again proved to be an asset, with Marcus Theatres(R) achieving record results for the quarter," said Stephen H. Marcus, chairman and chief executive officer of The Marcus Corporation. Marcus Theatres reported record revenues and operating income for the first quarter. "The summer movie season was a little like a roller coaster. We started the summer with two great weeks, went through nine weeks of generally underperforming film product, and then finished the quarter with another two comparatively stronger weeks. In the end, solid hits such as Finding Nemo and Pirates of the Caribbean led the way to another record quarter," said Marcus. Marcus said the fall and holiday movie line-ups appear strong, with Runaway Jury and Intolerable Cruelty opening in October and The Matrix Revolutions, Master and Commander, Looney Tunes: Back in Action -more- Page 2 and Dr. Seuss' The Cat in the Hat opening in November. Anticipated hits during the upcoming holiday season include The Haunted Mansion and the third installment of Lord of the Rings. "With a broad variety of movies in the pipeline, we are very optimistic about the continued strong performance of our theatre division," said Marcus. He noted that four new screens under construction at the Marcus Cinema in Menomonee Falls, Wisconsin, are scheduled to open in time for the busy holiday season, increasing this theatre to 16 screens. In addition, the company's fourth UltraScreen(TM) now under construction in Elgin, Illinois, is scheduled to open late in the third quarter of fiscal 2004. The division is also overseeing the construction of a new six-screen theatre in Tomah, Wisconsin, which it will manage for the Ho-Chunk Indian Nation under a long-term contract. "On the lodging side of our business, we are encouraged by recent signs of improvement in the economy. Although our overall performance during the first quarter continued to be affected by the downturn in business travel, we were able to show a slight improvement in our revenue per available room (RevPAR) in both divisions, and that is a very positive development, particularly in this challenging environment," said Marcus. "Revenues and operating income for our limited-service lodging division for the first quarter were below the levels for the same period in the prior fiscal year, due in part to slightly lower results from our Woodfield Suites properties and one fewer company-owned Baymont Inn. We remain in a very competitive pricing environment, but we were pleased that the summer ended stronger than it began, which we hope is an indication of continued improvement in demand in the coming months. A bright spot is that our Baymont Inns & Suites increased occupancy and market share for the fifth straight quarter. RevPAR was up 0.8% for the quarter, again outperforming our competitive set in our markets," said Marcus. "On October 1, we will expand to the West Coast with the opening of our first Baymont Inn & Suites in Ontario, California. This property will establish our presence in the greater Los Angeles market and begin to build brand awareness for Baymont Inns in the nation's second largest market," said Marcus. Marcus Hotels and Resorts reported slightly increased revenues and flat operating income for the first quarter. RevPAR increased 0.8% in the first quarter. "Excluding our timeshare development in Lake Geneva, Wisconsin, first quarter operating income for the division would have been up nearly 4% over the prior year," said Marcus. -more- Page 3 Marcus added that construction has started on a new destination spa at the company's Miramonte Resort in Indian Wells, California. "The new spa will further enhance the Miramonte's amenities and expand its appeal in the Palm Springs market," said Marcus. He noted that second quarter results for both of the company's lodging divisions got off to a strong start due to the Harley-Davidson 100th Anniversary Celebration in Milwaukee. "The celebration had a significant impact on all of our Milwaukee-area properties," said Marcus. "We continue to believe that our lodging divisions are well-positioned to benefit as the economy improves and our markets rebound."
