Arpine Kocharyan has given his Hold rating due to a combination of factors related to Vail Resorts’ current snow conditions and operational performance. The UBS Vail Resorts Snow Monitor indicates that snow levels are slightly above last year’s, which had a decent start to the ski season, particularly in the western regions. This suggests a stable outlook for the upcoming season, with snow cover mostly aligning with historical averages.
Additionally, Vail Resorts is opening most of its resorts earlier than last year, which could positively impact early season operations. However, the slight variations in opening dates and the mixed snow cover trends in different regions may contribute to a cautious approach. These factors, combined with financial metrics such as net debt to EBITDA, lead to a balanced perspective, justifying the Hold rating.
