Six Flags: We Don't Think 10x Is A Stretch

Theme parks, particularly Six Flags and Cedar Fair, present a significant recovery opportunity post-COVID, with management targeting $800 million in free cash flow by 2027. Strategic investments and improved guest experiences at legacy Six Flags parks could boost attendance by 50% over FY23 levels, enhancing revenue and reducing debt.
