CONDENSED NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE 13 AND 39 WEEKS ENDED ~~MARCH 30,~~SEPTEMBER 28, 2023

(in thousands, except share and per share data)

1. General

Basis of Presentation - The unaudited consolidated financial statements for the 13 and 39 weeks ended ~~March 30,~~September 28, 2023 and ~~March 31,~~September 29, 2022 have been prepared by the Company. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the unaudited interim financial information at ~~March 30,~~September 28, 2023, and for all periods presented, have been made. The results of operations during the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for the entire year or other interim periods. However, the unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 29, 2022.

Accounting Policies - Refer to the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements (including footnotes) for the fiscal year ended December 29, 2022, contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for such year, for a description of the Company’s accounting policies.

Noncontrolling Interest - The Company has an ownership interest greater than 50% in one joint venture that is considered a Variable Interest Entity (VIE) that is included in the accounts of the Company. The Company is the primary beneficiary of the VIE and the Company’s interest is considered a majority voting interest. The primary asset of this VIE, The Skirvin Hilton, was sold on December 16, 2022. The equity interest of outside owners in consolidated entities is recorded as noncontrolling interest in the consolidated balance sheets. ~~The remaining noncontrolling interest as of March 30, 2023, represents undistributed cash in the joint venture.~~

Depreciation and Amortization - Depreciation and amortization of property and equipment are provided using the straight-line method over the shorter of the estimated useful lives of the assets or any related lease terms. Depreciation expense totaled ~~$15,868~~$19,150 and ~~$17,223~~$51,004 for the 13 and 39 weeks ended ~~March 30,~~September 28, 2023, respectively, and ~~March 31,~~$16,444 and $50,411 for the 13 and 39 weeks ended September 29, 2022, respectively.

Assets Held for Sale – Long-lived assets that are expected to be sold within the next 12 months and meet the other relevant held-for-sale criteria are classified as assets held for sale and included within current assets on the consolidated balance sheet. Assets held for sale are measured at the lower of their carrying value or their fair value less costs to sell the asset. As of ~~March 30,~~September 28, 2023, assets held for sale consists of excess ~~land.~~land and one closed theatre.

Long-Lived Assets – The Company periodically considers whether indicators of impairment of long-lived assets held for use are present. This includes quantitative and qualitative factors, including evaluating the historical actual operating performance of the long-lived assets and assessing the potential impact of recent events and transactions impacting the long-lived assets. If such indicators are present, the Company determines if the long-lived assets are recoverable by assessing whether the sum of the estimated undiscounted future cash flows attributable to such assets is less than their carrying amounts. If the long-lived assets are not recoverable, the Company recognizes any impairment losses based on the excess of the carrying amount of the assets over their fair value.

During the 13 weeks ended September 28, 2023, the Company determined that indicators of impairment were present at one theatre asset group. As such, the Company evaluated the fair value of these assets, consisting primarily of land, building and furniture, fixtures and equipment, and determined that the fair value, measured using Level 3 pricing inputs (using estimated discounted cash flows over the life of the primary asset, including estimated sales proceeds) was less than their carrying values and recorded a $684 impairment loss, reducing certain property and equipment assets. The remaining net book value of the impaired assets as of the date of the asset write-down (September 28, 2023) was $3,040. There were no indicators of impairment identified during the 1339 weeks ended ~~March 30, 2023 or March 31,~~September 29, 2022.

Goodwill – The Company reviews goodwill for impairment annually or more frequently if certain indicators arise. The Company performs its annual impairment test on the first day of the fiscal fourth quarter. There were no indicators of impairment identified during the 1339 weeks ended ~~March 30,~~September 28, 2023 or ~~March 31,~~September 29, 2022.

Earnings (Loss) Per Share - Net earnings (loss) per share (EPS) of Common Stock and Class B Common Stock is computed using the two class method. Basic net earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net earnings (loss) by the

weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net earnings (loss) by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding, adjusted for the effect of dilutive stock options and convertible debt instruments using the if-converted method. Convertible Class B Common Stock and convertible debt instruments are reflected on an if-converted basis when dilutive to Common Stock. The computation of the diluted net earnings (loss) per share of Common Stock assumes the conversion of Class B Common Stock in periods that have net earnings since it would be dilutive to Common Stock earnings per share, while the diluted net earnings (loss) per share of Class B Common Stock does not assume the conversion of those shares.

Holders of Common Stock are entitled to cash dividends per share equal to 110% of all dividends declared and paid on each share of Class B Common Stock. As such, the undistributed earnings (losses) for each period are allocated based on the proportionate share of entitled cash dividends.

The following table illustrates the computation of Common Stock basic and diluted net ~~loss~~earnings (loss) per share and provides a reconciliation of the number of weighted-average basic and diluted shares outstanding:

For the periods when the Company reports a net loss, common stock equivalents are excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share as their inclusion would have an antidilutive effect. During the 1339 weeks ended ~~March 30, 2023 and March 31,~~September 29, 2022, ~~respectively,~~ approximately ~~41,869 and 81,076~~76,714 common stock equivalents were excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share due to the Company’s net loss. During the 1339 weeks ended ~~March 30, 2023, and March 31,~~September 29, 2022, ~~respectively, 9,170,800 and 9,084,924~~9,111,846 shares related to the convertible notes were excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share as the effect would have been anti-dilutive.

Fair Value Measurements - Certain financial assets and liabilities are recorded at fair value in the consolidated financial statements. Some are measured on a recurring basis while others are measured on a non-recurring basis. Financial assets and liabilities measured on a recurring basis are those that are adjusted to fair value each time a financial statement is prepared. Financial assets and liabilities measured on a non-recurring basis are those that are adjusted to fair value when a significant event occurs. A fair value measurement assumes that a transaction to sell an asset or transfer a liability occurs in

the principal market for the asset or liability or, in the absence of a principal market, the most advantageous market for the asset or liability.

The Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value are classified in one of the following categories:

Level 1 - Assets or liabilities for which fair value is based on quoted prices in active markets for identical instruments as of the reporting date. At ~~March 30,~~September 28, 2023 and December 29, 2022, respectively, the Company’s ~~$4,544~~$4,964 and $3,932 of debt and equity securities classified as trading were valued using Level 1 pricing inputs and were included in other current assets. At September 28, 2023 and December 29, 2022, respectively, the Company’s $27,003 and $6,000 of investments in money market funds were valued using Level 1 pricing inputs and were included in cash and cash equivalents. ~~The Company had no investments in money market funds at March 30, 2023.~~

Level 2 - Assets or liabilities for which fair value is based on pricing inputs that were either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date. At December 29, 2022, the Company’s $108 asset related to the Company’s interest rate swap contract was valued using Level 2 pricing inputs. This ~~contracted~~contract terminated on March 1, 2023.

Level 3 - Assets or liabilities for which fair value is based on valuation models with significant unobservable pricing inputs and which result in the use of management estimates. At ~~March 30,~~September 28, 2023 and December 29, 2022, none of the Company’s recorded assets or liabilities that are measured on a recurring basis at fair market value were valued using Level 3 pricing inputs. Assets that are measured on a non-recurring basis are discussed above under Long-Lived Assets.

The carrying value of the Company’s financial instruments (including cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable) approximates fair value. The fair value of the Company’s ~~$80,000~~$70,000 of senior notes, valued using Level 2 pricing inputs, is approximately ~~$72,554~~$62,406 at ~~March 30,~~September 28, 2023, determined based upon discounted cash flows using current market interest rates for financial instruments with a similar average remaining life. The fair value of the Company's $100,050 of convertible senior notes, valued using Level 2 pricing inputs, is approximately ~~$157,576~~$154,936 at ~~March 30,~~September 28, 2023, determined based on market rates and the closing trading price of the convertible senior notes as of ~~March 30,~~September 28, 2023. The carrying amounts of the Company’s remaining long-term debt approximate their fair values, determined using current rates for similar instruments, or Level 2 pricing inputs.

Defined Benefit Plan - The components of the net periodic pension cost of the Company’s unfunded nonqualified, defined-benefit plan are as follows:


		13 Weeks Ended				13 Weeks Ended				39 Weeks Ended
		March 30, 2023		March 31, 2022				September 28, 2023		September 29, 2022		September 28, 2023		September 29, 2022

Credit Agreement

On January 9, 2020, the Company replaced its then-existing credit agreement with several banks. On April 29, 2020, the Company entered into the First Amendment, on September 15, 2020, the Company entered into the Second Amendment, on July 13, 2021, the Company entered into the Third Amendment, on July 29, 2022, the Company entered into the Fourth Amendment and on February 10, 2023, the Company entered into the Fifth Amendment (the Credit Agreement, as amended by the First Amendment, the Second Amendment, the Third Amendment, the Fourth Amendment and the Fifth Amendment, hereinafter referred to as the “Credit Agreement”).

The Credit Agreement provides for a revolving credit facility that matures on January 9, 2025 with an initial maximum aggregate amount of availability of $225,000. At ~~March 30,~~September 28, 2023, there were borrowings of ~~$9,000~~$0 outstanding on the revolving credit facility, which when borrowed, bear interest at the secured overnight financing rate (“SOFR”) plus a margin, effectively ~~9.35%~~6.41% at ~~March 30,~~September 28, 2023. Availability under the line at ~~March 30,~~September 28, 2023, was ~~$212,773,~~$220,623, after taking into consideration outstanding letters of credit that reduce revolver availability.

Effective with the Fifth Amendment on February 10, 2023, the variable rate LIBOR benchmark in the Credit Agreement was replaced with SOFR. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement now generally bear interest at a variable rate equal to: (i) SOFR plus a credit spread adjustment of 0.10%, subject to a 0% floor, plus a specified margin based upon our consolidated debt to capitalization ratio as of the most recent determination date; or (ii) the base rate (which is the highest of (a) the prime rate, (b) the greater of the federal funds rate and the overnight bank funding rate plus 0.50% or (c) the sum of 1% plus one-month SOFR plus a credit spread adjustment of 0.10%), subject to a 1% floor, plus a specified margin based upon our consolidated debt to capitalization ratio as of the most recent determination date. In addition, the Credit Agreement

~~THE MARCUS CORPORATION~~

~~CONDENSED NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS~~

~~FOR THE 13 WEEKS ENDED MARCH 30, 2023~~

~~(in thousands, except share and per share data)~~

generally requires the Company to pay a facility fee equal to 0.125% to 0.25% of the total revolving commitment, depending on our consolidated debt to capitalization ratio, as defined in the Credit Agreement. However, pursuant to the First Amendment, the Second Amendment and the Fifth Amendment: (A) in respect of revolving loans, (1) the Company is charged a facility fee equal to 0.40% of the total revolving credit facility commitment and (2) the specified margin is 2.35% for SOFR borrowings and 1.35% for ABR borrowings, which facility fee rate and specified margins will remain in effect until the end of the first fiscal quarter ending after the end of any period in which the testing of any financial covenant in the Credit Agreement is suspended (the “specified period”); and (B) in respect of term loans, the specified margin is 2.75% for SOFR borrowings and 1.75% for ABR borrowings, in each case, at all times.

The Credit Agreement contains various restrictions and covenants. Among other requirements, the Credit Agreement (a) limits the amount of priority debt (as defined in the Credit Agreement) held by the Company’s restricted subsidiaries to no more than 20% of the Company’s consolidated total capitalization (as defined in the Credit Agreement), (b) limits the Company’s permissible consolidated debt to capitalization ratio to a maximum of 0.55 to 1.0, (c) requires the Company to maintain a consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio of at least 2.5 to 1.0 as of the end of the fiscal quarter ending March 30, 2023 and each fiscal quarter thereafter, and (d) restricts the Company’s ability to incur additional indebtedness and make voluntary prepayments on or defeasance of the Company’s 4.02% Senior Notes due August 2025, 4.32% Senior Notes due February 2027, the notes or certain other convertible securities. Beginning with the first quarter of fiscal 2023, the Company ~~has~~ returned to compliance with prior financial covenants under the Credit Agreement that were temporarily waived ~~(specifically,~~

(in thousands, except share and per share data)

(specifically, the consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio), removing any limitations on the total amount of quarterly dividends or share repurchases. During fiscal 2022, the Credit Agreement limited the total amount of quarterly dividend payments or share repurchases to no more than $1,550 per quarter.

In connection with the Credit Agreement: (i) the Company has pledged, subject to certain exceptions, security interests and liens in and on (a) substantially all of its respective personal property assets and (b) certain of its respective real property assets, in each case, to secure the Credit Agreement and related obligations; and (ii) certain of the Company’s subsidiaries have guaranteed the Company’s obligations under the Credit Agreement. ~~The foregoing security interests, liens and guaranties will remain in effect until the Collateral Release Date (as defined in the Credit Agreement).~~

The Credit Agreement contains customary events of default. If an event of default under the Credit Agreement occurs and is continuing, then, among other things, the lenders may declare any outstanding obligations under the Credit Agreement to be immediately due and payable and exercise rights and remedies against the pledged collateral.

Subsequent to the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2023, on October 16, 2023 the Company amended the Credit Agreement. See Note 6 - Subsequent Event for further discussion.

Note Purchase Agreements

At ~~March 30,~~September 28, 2023 and December 29, 2022, the Company’s ~~$80,000~~$70,000 of senior notes consist of two Note Purchase Agreements maturing in 2025 through 2027, require annual principal payments in varying installments and bear interest payable semi-annually at fixed rates ranging from 4.02% to 4.32%.

Subsequent to the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2023, on October 16, 2023 the Company amended the Note Purchase Agreements. See Note 6 - Subsequent Event for further discussion.

Convertible Senior Notes

On September 17, 2020, the Company entered into a purchase agreement to issue and sell $100,050 aggregate principal amount of its 5.00% Convertible Senior Notes due 2025 (the “Convertible Notes.”) The Convertible Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture (the “Indenture”), dated September 22, 2020, between the Company and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee.

The Convertible Notes bear interest from September 22, 2020 at a rate of 5.00% per year. Interest will be payable semiannually in arrears on March 15 and September 15 of each year, beginning on March 15, 2021. The Convertible Notes may bear additional interest under specified circumstances relating to the Company’s failure to comply with its reporting obligations under the Indenture or if the Convertible Notes are not freely tradeable as required by the Indenture. The Convertible Notes will mature on September 15, 2025, unless earlier repurchased or converted. Prior to March 15, 2025, the Convertible Notes will be convertible at the option of the holders only under the following circumstances: (i) during any fiscal quarter commencing after the fiscal quarter ending on December 31, 2020 (and only during such fiscal quarter), if the last reported sale price of the Common Stock for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during a period

~~Table of Contents~~

~~CONDENSED NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS~~

~~FOR THE 13 WEEKS ENDED MARCH 30, 2023~~

~~(in thousands, except share and per share data)~~

of 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the last trading day of the immediately preceding fiscal quarter is greater than or equal to 130% of the conversion price on each applicable trading day; (ii) during the five business day period immediately after any five consecutive trading day period, or the measurement period, in which the trading price per $1,000 principal amount of the Convertible Notes for each trading day of the measurement period was less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price of the Common Stock and the conversion rate on each such trading day; or (iii) upon the occurrence of specified corporate events. On or after March 15, 2025, the Convertible Notes will be convertible at the option of the holders at any time until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date.

Upon conversion, the Convertible Notes may be settled, at the Company’s election, in cash, shares of Common Stock or a combination thereof. The initial conversion rate was 90.8038 shares of Common Stock per $1,000 principal amount of the Convertible Notes (equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $11.01 per share of Common Stock), representing an initial conversion premium of approximately 22.5% to the $8.99 last reported sale price of the Common

(in thousands, except share and per share data)

Stock on The New York Stock Exchange on September 17, 2020. The conversion rate is subject to adjustment for certain events, including distributions and dividends paid to holders of Common Stock. At ~~March 30,~~September 28, 2023, the applicable conversion rate is ~~91.6622~~92.3757 shares of Common Stock per $1,000 principal amount of the Convertible Notes (equivalent to an applicable conversion price of approximately ~~$10.91~~$10.83 per share of Common Stock). If the Company undergoes certain fundamental changes, holders of Convertible Notes may require the Company to repurchase for cash all or part of their Convertible Notes for a purchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Convertible Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the fundamental change repurchase date. In addition, if a make-whole fundamental change occurs prior to the maturity date, the Company will, under certain circumstances, increase the conversion rate for holders who convert Convertible Notes in connection with such make-whole fundamental change. The Company may not redeem the Convertible Notes before maturity and no “sinking fund” is provided for the Convertible Notes. The Indenture includes covenants customary for securities similar to the Convertible Notes, sets forth certain events of default after which the Convertible Notes may be declared immediately due and payable and sets forth certain types of bankruptcy or insolvency events of default involving the Company and certain of its subsidiaries after which the Convertible Notes become automatically due and payable.

Since the Company’s fiscal 2021 second quarter through the Company’s fiscal 2023 ~~second~~fourth quarter, the Company’s Convertible Notes were (are) eligible for conversion at the option of the holders as the last reported sale price of the Common Stock was greater than or equal to 130% of the applicable conversion price for at least 20 trading days during the last 30 consecutive trading days ending on the last trading day of the preceding fiscal quarter. The Company has the ability to settle the conversion in Company stock. As such, the Convertible Notes will continue to be classified as long-term. Future convertibility and resulting balance sheet classification of this liability will be monitored at each quarterly reporting date and will be analyzed dependent upon market prices of the Company’s Common Stock during the prescribed measurement period. No Convertible Notes have been converted to date and the Company does not expect any to be converted within the next 12 months.

In connection with the pricing of the Convertible Notes on September 17, 2020, and in connection with the exercise by the Initial Purchasers (as defined in the Convertible Notes purchase agreement) of their option to purchase additional Convertible Notes on September 18, 2020, the Company entered into privately negotiated Capped Call Transactions (the “Capped Call Transactions”) with certain of the Initial Purchasers and/or their respective affiliates and/or other financial institutions (the “Capped Call Counterparties”). The Capped Call Transactions are expected generally to reduce potential dilution of the Company’s common stock upon any conversion of the Convertible Notes and/or offset any cash payments the Company is required to make in excess of the principal amount of such converted Convertible Notes, as the case may be, in the event that the market price per share of the Company’s common stock, as measured under the terms of the Capped Call Transactions, is greater than the strike price of the Capped Call Transactions, which initially corresponds to the conversion price of the Convertible Notes and is subject to anti-dilution adjustments substantially similar to those applicable to the conversion rate of the Convertible Notes. If, however, the market price per share of the Company’s common stock, as measured under the terms of the Capped Call Transactions, exceeds the cap price of the Capped Call Transactions, there would nevertheless be dilution to the extent that such market price exceeds the cap price of the Capped Call Transactions. The cap price of the Capped Call Transactions was initially $17.98 per share (in no event shall the cap price be less than the strike price of $11.0128), which represents a premium of 100% over the last reported sale price of the

~~(in thousands, except share and per share data)~~

Common Stock of $8.99 per share on The New York Stock Exchange on September 17, 2020. Under the terms of the Capped Call Transactions, the cap price is subject to adjustment for certain events, including distributions and dividends paid to holders of Common Stock. At ~~March 30,~~September 28, 2023, the adjusted cap price is approximately ~~$17.81~~$17.67 per share. The Capped Call Transactions are separate transactions entered into by the Company with the Capped Call Counterparties, are not part of the terms of the Convertible Notes and will not change the rights of holders of the Convertible Notes under the Convertible Notes and the Indenture.

3. Leases

The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. The Company evaluates each lease for classification as either a finance lease or an operating lease according to accounting guidance ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The Company performs this evaluation at the inception of the lease and when a modification is made to a lease. The Company

Table of Contents

THE MARCUS CORPORATION

CONDENSED NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(in thousands, except share and per share data)

leases real estate and equipment with lease terms of one year to 45 years, some of which include options to extend and/or terminate the lease.

The majority of the Company’s lease agreements include fixed rental payments. For those leases with variable payments based on increases in an index subsequent to lease commencement, such payments are recognized as variable lease expense as they occur. Variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or rate, including those that depend on the Company’s performance or use of the underlying asset, are also expensed as incurred. Lease expense for operating lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Total lease cost consists of the following:

6. Subsequent Event

Subsequent to the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2023, on October 16, 2023, the Company entered into a Sixth Amendment to the Credit Agreement (as previously amended, the “Credit Agreement” and, as amended by the Sixth Amendment, the “New Credit Agreement”), which provides for a new five-year revolving credit facility that matures on October 16, 2028, with an aggregate amount of available borrowings of $225,000. Upon the effective date, the Sixth Amendment amended the New Credit Agreement to, among other things: (i) revise the applicable interest rates for benchmark and ABR (defined below) loans to be determined by a net leverage ratio, rather than the previously used debt to capitalization ratio; (ii) revise the definition of consolidated EBITDA to include certain non-recurring costs and one-time expenses and exclude certain non-recurring recognized gains; (iii) exclude the Company’s hotel properties and certain theatre properties from the collateral under the New Credit Agreement; (iv) revise the financial covenants to eliminate covenants regarding the consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio and consolidated debt to capitalization ratio and replace these covenants with a requirement that the Company’s consolidated net leverage ratio not exceed 3.50:1.00, provided that, with some limitations, such ratio may be increased to 4.00:1:00 for the full fiscal quarter in which a material acquisition (in which aggregate consideration equals or exceeds $30,000) is consummated and the three fiscal quarters immediately thereafter; (v) replace the required consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio with a covenant that the Company’s interest coverage ratio at the end of any fiscal quarter not be less than 3.00:1.00; (vi) revise permitted indebtedness under the agreement to include, among other items, (a) borrowings or finance lease obligations to finance capital expenditures up to $40,000 at any time outstanding, (b) indebtedness under the Company’s senior notes up to $100,000 at any time outstanding; (c) indebtedness of up to $25,000 in any new restricted subsidiaries at the time such entity becomes a restricted subsidiary, (d) other indebtedness not exceeding $50,000 at any time outstanding and (e) other indebtedness as long as the consolidated net leverage ratio is at least 0.25 less than otherwise required under the New Credit Agreement;

FOR THE 13 AND 39 WEEKS ENDED SEPTEMBER 28, 2023

(in thousands, except share and per share data)

and (vii) revise the covenants to allow the Company to make investments as long as no default has occurred under the New Credit Agreement, or would occur as a result of the investment, as long as the consolidated net leverage ratio is at least 0.25 less than otherwise required under the New Credit Agreement.

Borrowings under the New Credit Agreement bear interest at a variable rate equal to (i) the term SOFR, plus a credit spread adjustment of 0.10%, subject to a 0% floor, plus a specified margin based upon the Company’s net leverage ratio as of the most recent determination date, or (ii) the alternate base rate (“ABR”) (which is the highest of (a) the prime rate, (b) the greater of the federal funds rate and the overnight bank funding rate plus 0.50% or (c) the sum of 1% plus one-month SOFR plus a credit spread adjustment of 0.10%), subject to a 1% floor, plus a specified margin based upon the Company’s net leverage ratio as of the most recent determination date; provided, however, as of the effective date of the New Credit Agreement, in respect of revolving loans, the applicable margin is 1.75% for SOFR borrowings and 0.75% for ABR borrowings, and will be adjusted for the first time thereafter based upon the Company’s net leverage ratio as determined for the fiscal year ending December 28, 2023. The Company will also be required to pay a variable rate facility fee depending on the Company’s consolidated net leverage ratio; provided, however that such fee will be 0.25% and will be adjusted for the first time thereafter based upon the Company’s consolidated net leverage ratio as determined for the fiscal year ending December 28, 2023.

In connection with the New Credit Agreement, (i) the Company and certain of its subsidiaries have pledged, subject to certain exceptions, security interests and liens in and on (a) substantially all of their respective personal property assets and (b) certain of their respective real property assets, in each case to secure the New Credit Agreement and related obligations; and (ii) certain subsidiaries of the Company have guaranteed the Company’s obligations under the New Credit Agreement.

In connection with entering into the New Credit Agreement, on October 16, 2023, the Company and certain purchasers entered into the Sixth Amendment to: (i) the Note Purchase Agreement, dated December 21, 2016, for the Company’s 4.32% Senior Notes due February 22, 2027, and (ii) the Note Purchase Agreement, dated June 27, 2013, for the Company’s 4.02% Senior Notes due August 14, 2025 (collectively, the “Note Amendments” and such Note Purchase Agreements, as previously amended and as amended by the Note Amendments, the “Amended Senior Note Agreements”). The Note Amendments revise the Note Purchase Agreements so that the Amended Senior Note Agreements’ covenants and collateral provisions are consistent with those set forth in the New Credit Agreement. Customary fees were payable in connection with the closing of the Note Amendments.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

Certain matters discussed in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) and elsewhere in this Form 10-Q are “forward-looking statements” intended to qualify for the safe harbors from liability established by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements may generally be identified as such because the context of such statements include words such as we “believe,” “anticipate,” “expect” or words of similar import. Similarly, statements that describe our future plans, objectives or goals are also forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties which may cause results to differ materially from those expected, including, but not limited to, the following: (1) the adverse effects the COVID-19 pandemic, or future pandemics, may have on our theatre and hotels and resorts businesses, results of operations, liquidity, cash flows, financial condition, access to credit markets and ability to service our existing and future indebtedness; (2) the availability, in terms of both quantity and audience appeal, of motion pictures for our theatre division ~~(particularly following~~(including disruptions in the ~~COVID-19 pandemic, during which the release dates for certain motion pictures have been postponed)~~production of films due to events such as a strike by actors, writers or directors); (3) the effects of theatre industry dynamics such as the maintenance of a suitable window between the date such motion pictures are released in theatres and the date they are released to other distribution channels; (4) the effects of adverse economic conditions in our markets; (5) the effects of adverse economic conditions on our ability to obtain financing on reasonable and acceptable terms, if at all; (6) the effects on our occupancy and room rates caused by the relative industry supply of available rooms at comparable lodging facilities in our markets; (7) the effects of competitive conditions in our markets; (8) our ability to achieve expected benefits and performance from our strategic initiatives and acquisitions; (9) the effects of increasing depreciation expenses, reduced operating profits during major property renovations, impairment losses, and preopening and start-up costs due to the capital intensive nature of our business; (10) the effects of changes in the availability of and cost of labor and other supplies essential to the operation of our business; (11) the effects of weather conditions, particularly during the winter in the Midwest and in our other markets; (12) our ability to identify properties to acquire, develop and/or manage and the continuing availability of funds for such development; (13) the adverse impact on business and consumer spending on travel, leisure and entertainment resulting from terrorist attacks in the United States, other incidents of violence in public venues such as hotels and movie theatres or epidemics; and (14) a disruption in our business and reputational and economic risks associated with civil securities claims brought by shareholders. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors, some of which are beyond our control and difficult to predict and could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or forecasted in the forward-looking statements. Our forward-looking statements are based upon our assumptions, which are based upon currently available information. Shareholders, potential investors and other readers are urged to consider these factors carefully in evaluating the forward-looking statements and are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements made herein are made only as of the date of this Form 10-Q and we undertake no obligation to publicly update such forward-looking statements to reflect subsequent events or circumstances.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

General

We report our consolidated and individual segment results of operations on a 52- or 53-week fiscal year ending on the last Thursday in December. Fiscal 2023 is a 52-week year beginning on December 30, 2022 and ending on December 28, 2023. Fiscal 2022 was a 52-week year that began on December 31, 2021 and ended on December 29, 2022.

We divide our fiscal year into three 13-week quarters and a final quarter consisting of 13 or 14 weeks. The ~~first~~third quarter of fiscal 2023 consisted of the 13-week period beginning on ~~December~~June 30, ~~2022~~2023 and ended on ~~March 30,~~September 28, 2023. The ~~first~~third quarter of fiscal 2022 consisted of the 13-week period beginning July 1, 2022 and ended on September 29, 2022. The first three quarters of fiscal 2023 consisted of the 39-week period beginning on December 30, 2022 and ended on September 28, 2023. The first three quarters of fiscal 2022 consisted of the 39-week period beginning December 31, 2021 and ended on ~~March 31,~~September 29, 2022. Our primary operations are reported in the following two business segments: movie theatres and hotels and resorts. Within this MD&A, amounts for totals, subtotals, and variances may not recalculate exactly within tables due to rounding as they are calculated using the unrounded numbers.

Revenues and operating income increased and ~~operating loss,~~ net ~~loss attributable to The Marcus Corporation~~earnings (loss) and net ~~loss~~earnings (loss) per diluted common share improved ~~significantly~~ during the third quarter and first ~~quarter~~three quarters of fiscal 2023 compared to the third quarter and first ~~quarter~~three quarters of fiscal 2022. Increased revenues ~~from both our theatre division~~ and ~~hotels and resorts division and a reduced~~ operating ~~loss~~income from our theatre division contributed to the improvement during the third quarter and first ~~quarter~~three quarters of fiscal 2023 compared to the third quarter and first ~~quarter~~three quarters of fiscal 2022. ~~Our first quarter is typically~~Increased revenues and operating income from our hotels and resorts division at comparable hotels (excluding the ~~seasonally weakest quarter~~impact of ~~our fiscal year due~~the sale of The Skirvin Hilton) also contributed to the ~~traditionally reduced level~~improvement during the third quarter and first three quarters of ~~winter travel at our predominantly Midwestern portfolio~~fiscal 2023 compared to the third quarter and first three quarters of ~~owned hotels.~~fiscal 2022. The first ~~quarter~~half of fiscal 2022 was ~~also~~ negatively impacted due to the fact that releases of new films were limited and travel was reduced due to the lingering impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and subsequent ~~variants.~~

~~Net loss attributable to The Marcus Corporation~~variants, particularly during the first quarter of fiscal 2022.

Net earnings (loss) during the third quarter and first three quarters of fiscal 2023 was favorably impacted by decreased interest expense compared to the third quarter and first ~~quarter~~three quarters of fiscal 2022 and investment income during the third quarter and first ~~quarter~~three quarters of fiscal 2023 compared to investment losses in the third quarter and first ~~quarter~~three quarters of fiscal 2022.

We recognized investment income of ~~$0.3~~$0.4 million and $1.1 million during the third quarter and first three quarters of fiscal 2023, respectively, compared to immaterial investment losses during the third quarter of fiscal ~~2023 compared to~~2022 and $0.8 million of investment losses ~~of $0.3 million in~~during the first ~~quarter~~three quarters of fiscal 2022. Variations in investment income were due to changes in the value of marketable securities.

Our interest expense totaled ~~$3.0~~$2.9 million and $9.0 million for the third quarter and first ~~quarter~~three quarters of fiscal 2023, respectively, compared to ~~$4.1~~$3.7 million and $11.8 million for the ~~first quarter of~~respective fiscal ~~2022.~~2022 periods. The decrease in interest expense in fiscal 2023 was primarily due to decreased borrowings and a decrease in non-cash amortization of deferred financing costs. Changes in our borrowing levels due to variations in our operating results, capital expenditures, acquisition opportunities (or the lack thereof) and asset sale proceeds, among other items, may impact, either favorably or unfavorably, our actual reported interest expense in future periods, as may changes in short-term interest rates.

We reported an income tax ~~benefit~~expense for the ~~first~~third quarter of fiscal 2023 of ~~$2.8~~$5.9 million compared to income tax expense of $1.5 million during the third quarter of fiscal 2022. We reported income tax expense for the first three quarters of fiscal 2023 of $7.1 million compared to an income tax benefit of ~~$6.5~~$0.3 million during the first ~~quarter~~three quarters of fiscal 2022. Our fiscal 2023 first ~~quarter~~three quarters effective income tax rate was ~~23.1%~~30.5%, and was ~~favorably~~negatively impacted by ~~a decrease~~changes in valuation allowances ~~on certain~~related to deferred tax assets for state ~~income tax~~ net operating loss carryforwards ~~expected~~and by excess compensation subject to ~~be utilized in the current year.~~deduction limitations. Our fiscal 2022 first ~~quarter~~three quarters effective income tax rate was ~~30.5%.~~9.8%, and was impacted by an increase in valuation allowances related to deferred tax assets for state net operating loss carryforwards. We anticipate that our effective income tax rate for fiscal 2023 may be in the ~~24-28%~~28-32% range, excluding any potential ~~further~~ changes in federal or

state income tax rates, valuation allowance adjustments or other one-time tax benefits. Our actual fiscal 2023 effective income tax rate may be different from our estimated quarterly rates depending upon actual facts and circumstances.

Our theatre division revenues and operating income increased during the third quarter and first ~~quarter~~three quarters of fiscal 2023, with increased revenue per person, strong film performance, and an increase in the number of new films released by movie studios resulting in higher attendance compared to the third quarter and first ~~quarter~~three quarters of fiscal 2022. Our operating income during the third quarter and first ~~quarter~~three quarters of fiscal 2023 significantly improved compared to the ~~operating loss in the~~third quarter and first ~~quarter~~three quarters of fiscal 2022 as a result of higher overall revenues and greater labor productivity.

The following table provides a further breakdown of the components of revenues for the theatre division for the third quarter and first ~~quarter~~three quarters of fiscal 2023 and fiscal 2022 (in millions, except for variance percentage):

According to data received from Comscore (a national box office reporting service for the theatre industry) and compiled by us to evaluate our fiscal 2023 third quarter and first ~~quarter~~three quarters results, U.S. box office receipts increased ~~26.3%~~37.6% during our fiscal 2023 third quarter and 24.8% during our fiscal 2023 first ~~quarter~~three quarters compared to the same comparable weeks in fiscal 2022, indicating that our increase in admission revenues for comparable theatres (excluding theatres closed during the past year) during the third quarter and first ~~quarter~~three quarters of fiscal 2023 of ~~24.0%~~29.8% and 20.0% underperformed the industry by ~~2.3~~7.8 and 4.8 percentage ~~points.~~points, respectively. We believe our underperformance is attributable to the more significant impact of ~~the Omicron variant~~lingering variants of COVID-19 in other regions of the country than in our primarily Midwestern markets during the third quarter and first ~~quarter~~three quarters of fiscal 2022, representing a higher opportunity for growth in 2023 nationally than in our markets. We believe this is evidenced by the recovery in our admission revenues relative to pre-pandemic periods in fiscal 2019 compared with the overall recovery of the U.S. box office. During the third quarter and first three quarters of fiscal 2023, our admission revenues for comparable theatres were 93.4% and 85.2%, respectively, of admission revenues in the respective periods in fiscal 2019. This compares with U.S. box office receipts for the third quarter and first three quarters of fiscal 2023 that were 93.5% and 83.0% of U.S. box office receipts for the respective 2019 periods, indicating that our recovery in admission revenues was in-line with and outperformed the U.S. box office recovery during the respective periods.

We also believe our underperformance during the third quarter of fiscal 2023 compared to third quarter of fiscal 2022 is attributable to an unfavorable film mix during the third quarter of fiscal 2023 that was more appealing to audiences in other parts of the U.S. than in our Midwestern markets, compared to a favorable film mix during the third quarter of fiscal 2022 that included Top Gun: Maverick and Minions: The Rise of Gru, which played well in our Midwestern markets. Additional data received and compiled by us from Comscore indicates our admission revenues during the third quarter and first ~~quarter~~three quarters of fiscal 2023 represented approximately ~~3.2%~~2.9% and 3.1%, respectively, of the total admission revenues in the U.S.

during the periods (commonly referred to as market share in our industry). This represents a decrease over our reported market share of approximately 3.4% during the first quarter of fiscal 2022, which we believe is also attributable to the Omicron variant more significantly impacting other regions of the country during the first quarter of fiscal 2022. Our goal is to continue our past long-term pattern of outperforming the industry, but our ability to do so in any given quarter will likely be partially dependent upon film mix, weather and the competitive landscape in our markets.

Total theatre attendance for our comparable theatres increased ~~significantly~~15.6% during the ~~first~~third quarter of fiscal 2023 compared to the ~~first~~third quarter of fiscal 2022, which was primarily attributable to a stronger performance from the top film this year (Barbie) versus the top film last year during the third quarter (Minions: The Rise of Gru) and the favorable impact of a small increase in the number of wide-release films (films showed in over approximately 1,500 theatres in the U.S.). During the third quarter of fiscal 2023 there were 24 wide-release films compared to 23 wide-release films during the third quarter of fiscal 2022.

Total theatre attendance for our comparable theatres increased 7.3% during the first three quarters of fiscal 2023 compared to the prior year period, resulting primarily from an increase in the number of wide-release films. During the first ~~quarter~~three quarters of fiscal 2023 there were 2176 wide-release films compared to 1261 wide-release films during the first ~~quarter~~three quarters of fiscal 2022. Total theatre attendance increased 13.9% during the first quarter of fiscal 2023 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2022, resulting in increases in both admission revenues and concession revenues.

Our highest grossing films during the fiscal 2023 ~~first~~third quarter included ~~Avatar: The Way of Water~~Barbie, ~~Ant-Man~~Oppenheimer, Sound of Freedom, Indiana Jones and the ~~Wasp: Quantumania, Creed III, Puss in Boots: The Last Wish~~Dial of Destiny and ~~M3GAN~~Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part One. Our top five films during our fiscal 2023 ~~first~~third quarter accounted for ~~51%~~57% of our total box office results, compared to ~~66%~~62% for the top five films during the ~~first~~third quarter of fiscal 2022, both expressed as a percentage of the total admission revenues for the period. A decreased concentration of blockbuster films during a given quarter often has the effect of lowering our film rental costs during the period, as generally the better a particular film performs, the greater the film rental cost tends to be as a percentage of box office receipts. ~~While the first quarter~~As a result of ~~fiscal 2023 was~~a less concentrated ~~on blockbuster films compared to the first quarter of~~

Our average ticket price increased ~~8.8%~~12.8% and 12.2% during the third quarter and first three quarters of fiscal 2023 compared to the third quarter and first three quarters of fiscal 2022, respectively, and was favorably impacted by inflationary price increases that we implemented in the first quarter of fiscal 2023 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2022. The increase in our average ticket price during the first quarter of fiscal 2023 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2022 was favorably impacted by a higher percentage of 3D films in our fiscal 2023 first quarter, and inflationary price increases that we implemented during the second quarter of fiscal 2022 in response to increases in labor and supply costs, ~~which were partially offset by~~an increase in the percentage of our weekly attendance on days other than Value Tuesday, and a ~~lower proportion of admission revenues from premium large format screens (with a~~film mix featuring more films for adult audiences at higher ticket price) due to the mix of films.

During the last week of the first quarter of fiscal 2023, we implemented several pricing changes to our Value Tuesday promotion across our theatre circuit, which has historically offered $5 admission and free complementary-size popcorn to our loyalty program members. Our new Value Tuesday promotion features $6 admission for members of our free Magical Movie Rewards (MMR) loyalty program and $7 admission for non-MMR ~~customers,~~customers. The overall increase in average ticket price favorably impacted our admission revenues of our comparable theatres by $6.9 million and ~~replaces~~$18.9 million during the third quarter and first three quarters of fiscal 2023 compared to the third quarter and first three quarters of fiscal 2022, respectively.

Our average concession revenues per person increased by 6.5% and 6.2% during the third quarter and first three quarters of fiscal 2023 compared to the third quarter and first three quarters of fiscal 2022, respectively, due to inflationary increases in concessions prices in response to increases in food and labor costs and due to the net positive impact of changes to our Value Tuesday promotion, which replaced free complementary-size popcorn with a 20% discount on all concessions, food and non-alcoholic beverages for MMR members.

Our average concession revenues per person increased by 5.0% during the first quarter of fiscal 2023 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2022. The increase in our average concession revenues per person during the first quarter of fiscal 2023 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2022 was due to inflationary increases in concessions prices in response to increases in food and labor costs. We also believe average concession revenues per person was positively impacted by a new food and beverage menu introduced in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022. Finally, we believe that an increased percentage of customers buying their concessions in advance using our website, kiosk or our mobile app likely contributed to higher average concession revenues per person, as our experience has shown that customers are more likely to purchase more items when they order and pay electronically. The increase in average concession revenues per person favorably impacted our concession revenues of our comparable theatres by $3.2 million and $8.7 million during the third quarter and first three quarters of fiscal 2023 compared to the third quarter and first three quarters of fiscal 2022, respectively.

Other revenues during the third quarter of fiscal 2023 increased by $1.3 million compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2022. Other revenues increased by $2.0 million during the first ~~quarter~~three quarters of fiscal 2023 compared to the first ~~quarter of fiscal 2022.~~

Revenues for the theatre business and the motion picture industry in general are heavily dependent on the number of films produced by studios and the general audience appeal of available films, together with studio marketing, advertising and support campaigns and the maintenance of appropriate “windows” between the date a film is released in theatres and the date a motion picture is released to other channels, including premium video-on-demand (“PVOD”), video on-demand (“VOD”), streaming services and DVD. These are factors over which we have no control.

The quantity of films released to theatres is also dependent upon the timing of film production by the studios. On May 2, 2023, the union representing script writers, the Writers Guild of America (WGA), went on strike after its contract expired with the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers (AMPTP), which represents media companies including film studios. On September 27, 2023, the WGA ended its strike and on October 9, 2023, the WGA ratified a new contract with the AMPTP, with the term of the agreement through May 1, 2026. On July 14, 2023, the union representing actors, the Screen Actors Guild - American Federation of Television and Radio Artists (SAG-AFTRA), also went on strike over an ongoing labor dispute with AMPTP. Film production has stopped as a result of these strikes, and a prolonged shutdown in film production may impact the film release schedule, particularly in 2024 and 2025.

We ended the ~~first~~third quarter of fiscal 2023 with a total of ~~1,053~~993 company-owned screens in 8479 theatres, compared to 1,064 company-owned screens in 85 theatres at the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2022.

fiscal 2023 compared to the first three quarters of fiscal 2022, due to the negative impact of the sale of The Skirvin Hilton. Excluding The Skirvin Hilton from fiscal 2022 results, division revenues before cost reimbursements increased $11.7 million, or 7.0%, during the first three quarters of fiscal 2023 compared to the first three quarters of fiscal 2022 due to increased occupancy at five of our seven owned hotels and increased average daily rate at all seven of our owned hotels.

According to data received from Smith Travel Research and compiled by us in order to evaluate our fiscal 2023 third quarter and first ~~quarter~~three quarters results, comparable “upper upscale” hotels—hotels identified as our industry— throughout the United States experienced an increase in RevPAR of ~~28.3%~~3.2% during our fiscal 2023 ~~first~~third quarter compared to the same period during fiscal 2022, leading us to believe we ~~underperformed~~outperformed the industry during the fiscal 2023 ~~first~~third quarter by approximately ~~10.8~~2.3 percentage points.

Table of Contents

underperformed the industry during the first three quarters of fiscal 2023 by approximately 1.1 percentage points. We believe our underperformance during the first three quarters of fiscal 2023 occurred because occupancy at our hotels recovered earlier in fiscal 2022, particularly in the first quarter of fiscal 2022, than the industry, which generally lagged our occupancy levels in fiscal 2022. This resulted in the industry growing occupancy at a faster rate than our owned hotels during the first three quarters of fiscal 2023 compared to the prior year.

Data received from Smith Travel Research for our various “competitive sets”—hotels identified in our specific markets that we deem to be competitors to our hotels—indicates that these hotels experienced an increase in RevPAR of ~~25.6%~~4.7% during our ~~first~~third quarter, again compared to the same period in fiscal 2022. Therefore, we believe we outperformed our competitive sets during the third quarter of fiscal 2023 by approximately 0.8 percentage point. We believe our outperformance to our competitive sets during the third quarter of fiscal 2023 results primarily from our strong mix of leisure customers at higher rates during the seasonal peak summer months with our properties that have a stronger appeal to leisure travelers compared to the competitive sets. During the first three quarters of fiscal 2023 compared to the first three quarters of fiscal 2022, hotels in our competitive sets experienced an increase in RevPAR of 9.8%, leading us to believe we underperformed our competitive sets during the first ~~quarter~~three quarters of fiscal 2023 by approximately ~~8.1~~0.7 percentage points. ~~To put this in context, we~~We believe our underperformance to ~~both the industry and~~ our competitive sets ~~occurred~~during the first three quarters of fiscal 2023 results primarily because occupancy at our hotels recovered earlier in fiscal 2022, particularly in the first quarter of fiscal 2022, than ~~the industry and~~our competitive ~~hotels in our markets,~~sets, which generally lagged our occupancy levels in fiscal 2022.

As of the date of this report, our group room revenue bookings for the remainder of fiscal 2023 - commonly referred to in the hotels and resorts industry as “group pace” - is running approximately 7%11% ahead of where we were at the same time last year. Group room revenue bookings for fiscal 2024 is running approximately ~~5% behind~~14% ahead of where we were at the same time in ~~early~~late fiscal 2022 for fiscal 2023.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA is a measure used by management and our board of directors to assess our financial performance and enterprise value. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA is a useful measure for us and investors, as it eliminates certain expenses that are not indicative of our core operating performance and facilitates a comparison of our core operating performance on a consistent basis from period to period. We also use Adjusted EBITDA as a basis to determine certain annual cash bonuses and long-term incentive awards, to supplement GAAP measures of performance to evaluate the effectiveness of our business strategies, to make budgeting decisions, and to compare our performance against that of other

~~Table of Contents~~

peer companies using similar measures. Adjusted EBITDA is also used by analysts, investors and other interested parties as a performance measure to evaluate industry competitors.

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure of our financial performance and should not be considered as an alternative to net earnings (loss) as a measure of financial performance, or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP. Additionally, Adjusted EBITDA is not intended to be a measure of liquidity or free cash flow for management’s discretionary use. Adjusted EBITDA has its limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP.

We define Adjusted EBITDA as net earnings (loss) attributable to The Marcus Corporation before investment income or loss, interest expense, other expense, gain or loss on disposition of property, equipment and other assets, equity earnings or losses from unconsolidated joint ventures, net earnings or losses attributable to noncontrolling interests, income taxes, ~~and~~ depreciation and amortization and non-cash share-based compensation expense, adjusted to eliminate the impact of certain items that we do not consider indicative of our core operating performance. These further adjustments are itemized below. You are encouraged to evaluate these adjustments and the reasons we consider them appropriate for supplemental analysis. In evaluating Adjusted EBITDA, you should be aware that in the future we will incur expenses that are the same as or similar to some of the items eliminated in the adjustments made to determine Adjusted EBITDA, such as acquisition expenses, preopening expenses, accelerated depreciation, impairment charges and other adjustments. Our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed to imply that our future results will be unaffected by any such adjustments.

Definitions and calculations of Adjusted EBITDA differ among companies in our industries, and therefore Adjusted EBITDA disclosed by us may not be comparable to the measures disclosed by other companies.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Liquidity

Our movie theatre and hotels and resorts businesses, when open and operating normally, each generate significant and consistent daily amounts of cash, subject to previously-noted seasonality, because each segment’s revenue is derived predominantly from consumer cash purchases. Under normal circumstances, we believe that these relatively consistent and predictable cash sources, as well as the availability of unused credit lines, would be adequate to support the ongoing operational liquidity needs of our businesses.

Maintaining and protecting a strong balance sheet has always been a core value of The Marcus Corporation during our 88-year history and our financial position remains strong. As of ~~March 30,~~September 28, 2023, we had a cash balance of approximately ~~$10.1~~$36.0 million, ~~$212.8~~$220.6 million of availability under our $225 million revolving credit facility, and our debt-to-capitalization ratio was ~~0.30.~~0.26. With our strong liquidity position combined with cash generated from operations, we believe we are positioned to have sufficient liquidity to meet our obligations as they come due and to comply with our debt covenants for at least 12 months from the issuance date of the consolidated financial statements, as well as our longer-term capital requirements.

However, future compliance with our debt covenants could be impacted if we are unable to continue operations as currently expected, which could be impacted by matters that are not entirely in our control, such as the protective actions resulting from future pandemics and the timing of new movie releases. Future compliance with our debt covenants could also be impacted if the speed of recovery of our theatres business is slower than currently expected. For example, our current expectations are that our theatre division will continue to improve during fiscal 2023, but still report results below comparable periods in fiscal 2019. In the event we are unable to comply with our debt covenants in future periods, we would either seek covenant waivers or attempt to amend our covenants, though there is no certainty that we would be successful in such efforts.

Financial Condition

Net cash ~~used in~~provided by operating activities totaled ~~$7.7~~$68.6 million during the first ~~quarter~~three quarters of fiscal 2023, compared to net cash provided by operating activities of ~~$6.5~~$60.4 million during the first ~~quarter~~three quarters of fiscal 2022. The ~~$14.2~~$8.3 million ~~decrease~~increase in net cash provided by operating activities was due ~~primarily~~ to an $18.9 million increase in net earnings and the favorable timing in the payment of accounts payable and other working capital payments during the first three quarters of fiscal 2023 compared to the first three quarters of fiscal 2022, partially offset by the receipt of refundable income taxes of $22.7 million and government grants of $4.3 million during the first ~~quarter~~three quarters of fiscal 2022 that did not recur in fiscal 2023, partially offset by a reduced net loss and the favorable timing in the payment of accounts payable and other working capital payments during the first quarter of fiscal 2023 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2022.

2023.

Net cash used in investing activities during the first ~~quarter~~three quarters of fiscal 2023 totaled ~~$9.5~~$26.9 million, compared to net cash used in investing activities of ~~$3.1~~$22.9 million during the first ~~quarter~~three quarters of fiscal 2022. The increase in net cash used in investing activities of ~~$6.4~~$4.0 million was the result of ~~an increase~~the impact of ~~$2.4 million in capital expenditures and~~ the sale of non-core real estate assets of ~~$3.4~~$4.9 million during the first ~~quarter~~three quarters of fiscal 2022 that did not recur in fiscal ~~2023.~~2023 and an increase in cash used in the purchase of trading securities and other investing activities, partially offset by a decrease of $1.6 million in capital expenditures. Total cash capital expenditures (including normal continuing capital maintenance and renovation projects) totaled ~~$8.9~~$25.8 million during the first ~~quarter~~three quarters of fiscal 2023 compared to ~~$6.6~~$27.5 million during the first ~~quarter~~three quarters of fiscal 2022.

Fiscal 2023 first ~~quarter~~three quarters cash capital expenditures included approximately ~~$4.2~~$10.4 million incurred in our theatre division, primarily related to normal maintenance capital projects. We also incurred capital expenditures in our hotels and resorts division during the first ~~quarter~~three quarters of fiscal 2023 of approximately ~~$4.7~~$15.1 million, including costs related to guest ~~rooms~~room renovations at the Grand Geneva Resort and Spa, meeting space renovations at The Pfister Hotel and normal maintenance capital projects.

Net cash ~~provided by~~used in financing activities during the first ~~quarter~~three quarters of fiscal 2023 totaled ~~$5.6~~$26.2 million compared to net cash used in financing activities of ~~$3.2~~$44.8 million during the first ~~quarter~~three quarters of fiscal 2022. During the first ~~quarter~~three quarters of fiscal 2023, we increased our borrowings under our revolving credit facility as needed to fund our cash needs and used excess cash to reduce our borrowings under our revolving credit facility. As short-term revolving credit facility borrowings became due, we replaced them as necessary with new short-term revolving credit facility borrowings. As a result, we added ~~$29.0~~

Table of Contents

$38.0 million of new short-term revolving credit facility borrowings, and we made ~~$20.0~~$38.0 million of repayments on short-term revolving credit facility borrowings during the first ~~quarter~~three quarters of fiscal 2023 (net ~~increase in~~zero borrowings on our credit ~~facility of $9.0 million)~~facility). We ended the ~~first~~third quarter of fiscal 2023 with ~~$9.0 million of~~no outstanding borrowings under our revolving credit facility. During the first ~~quarter~~three quarters of fiscal 2022, we increased our borrowings under our revolving credit facility as needed to fund our cash needs and used excess cash to reduce our borrowings under our revolving credit facility. As a result, we added ~~$22.0~~$62.0 million of new short-term revolving credit facility borrowings, and we made ~~$22.0~~$43.0 million of repayments on short-term revolving credit facility borrowings during the first ~~quarter~~three quarters of fiscal ~~2022.~~2022 (net $19.0 million of borrowings on our credit facility).

Principal payments on long-term debt were approximately ~~$0.4~~$11.1 million during the first ~~quarter~~three quarters of fiscal 2023 compared to payments of ~~$0.4~~$11.3 million during the first ~~quarter~~three quarters of fiscal 2022. Our debt-to-capitalization ratio (excluding our finance and operating lease obligations) was ~~0.30~~0.26 at ~~March 30,~~September 28, 2023, compared to 0.28 at December 29, 2022.

During the first ~~quarter~~three quarters of fiscal 2023 and the first ~~quarter~~three quarters of fiscal 2022, we did not repurchase any shares of our common stock in the open market. As of ~~March 30,~~September 28, 2023, approximately ~~2.5~~2.4 million shares remained available for repurchase under prior Board of Directors repurchase authorizations. Under these authorizations, we may repurchase shares of our common stock from time to time in the open market, pursuant to privately-negotiated transactions or otherwise, depending upon a number of factors, including prevailing market conditions.

During the first quarter of fiscal 2023 the Board of Directors declared a regular quarterly dividend of $0.05 per share of common stock. The dividend was paid on March 20, 2023 to shareholders of record on March 13, 2023. The Board of Directors also declared a dividend of $0.045 per share on the Class B common stock. The dividend on the Class B common stock, which is not publicly traded, was paid on March 20, 2023 to shareholders of record on March 13, 2023. Dividends paid during the first ~~quarter~~three quarters of fiscal 2023 were ~~$1.5~~$5.3 million. ~~We did not make any~~In the third quarter of fiscal 2022, we reinstated our quarterly dividend ~~payments~~that had been suspended as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Dividends paid during the first ~~quarter~~three quarters of fiscal ~~2022.~~

~~Our Credit Agreement, as amended, limited the total amount of quarterly dividend payments or share repurchases during fiscal~~ 2022 ~~to no more than $1.55 million per quarter. Beginning with the first quarter of fiscal 2023, we have returned to compliance with prior financial covenants under the Credit Agreement that~~ were ~~temporarily waived (specifically, the consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio), removing any limitations on the total amount of quarterly dividends or share repurchases.~~$1.5 million. We have the ability to declare quarterly dividend payments and/or repurchase shares of our common stock in the open market as we deem appropriate.

During the first quarter of fiscal 2023, we amended the Credit Agreement by entering into the Fifth Amendment effective on February 10, 2023, which replaced the variable rate LIBOR benchmark with the secured overnight financing rate (“SOFR”). Borrowings under the Credit Agreement now generally bear interest at a variable rate equal to: (i) SOFR plus a credit spread adjustment of 0.10%, subject to a 0% floor, plus a specified margin based upon our consolidated debt to capitalization ratio as of the most recent determination date; or (ii) the base rate (which is the highest of (a) the prime rate, (b) the greater of the federal funds rate and the overnight bank funding rate plus 0.50% or (c) the sum of 1% plus one-month SOFR plus a credit spread adjustment of 0.10%), subject to a 1% floor, plus a specified margin based upon our consolidated debt to capitalization ratio as of the most recent determination date. In addition, the Credit Agreement generally requires us to pay a facility fee equal to 0.125% to 0.25% of the total revolving commitment, depending on our

~~Table of Contents~~

consolidated debt to capitalization ratio, as defined in the Credit Agreement. ~~However, pursuant~~

New Credit Agreement and Sixth Amendment to Note Purchase Agreements

Subsequent to the ~~First~~end of the third quarter of fiscal 2023, on October 16, 2023, we entered into a Sixth Amendment to the Credit Agreement (as previously amended, the “Credit Agreement” and, as amended by the Sixth Amendment, the ~~Second Amendment and the Fifth Amendment: (1) we are charged~~“New Credit Agreement”), which provides for a ~~facility fee equal to 0.40% of the total~~new five-year revolving credit facility ~~commitment~~that matures on October 16, 2028, with an aggregate amount of available borrowings of $225 million. Upon the effective date, the Sixth Amendment amended the New Credit Agreement to, among other things: (i) revise the applicable interest rates for benchmark and ~~(2)~~ABR (defined below) loans to be determined by a net leverage ratio, rather than the previously used debt to capitalization ratio; (ii) revise the definition of consolidated EBITDA to include certain non-recurring costs and one-time expenses and exclude certain non-recurring recognized gains; (iii) exclude our hotel properties and certain theatre properties from the collateral under the New Credit Agreement; (iv) revise the financial covenants to eliminate covenants regarding the consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio and consolidated debt to capitalization ratio and replace these covenants with a requirement that our consolidated net leverage ratio not exceed 3.50:1.00, provided that, with some limitations, such ratio may be increased to 4.00:1:00 for the full fiscal quarter in which a material acquisition (in which aggregate consideration equals or exceeds $30,000,000) is consummated and the three fiscal quarters immediately thereafter; (v) replace the required consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio with a covenant that our interest coverage ratio at the end of any fiscal quarter not be less than 3.00:1.00; (vi) revise permitted indebtedness under the agreement to include, among other items, (a) borrowings or finance lease obligations to finance capital expenditures up to $40 million at any time outstanding, (b) indebtedness under our senior notes up to $100 million at any time outstanding; (c) indebtedness of up to $25 million in any new restricted subsidiaries at the time such entity becomes a restricted subsidiary, (d) other indebtedness not exceeding $50 million at any time outstanding and (e) other indebtedness as long as the consolidated net leverage ratio is at least 0.25 less than otherwise required under the New Credit Agreement; and (vii) revise the covenants to allow us to make investments as long as no

default has occurred under the New Credit Agreement, or would occur as a result of the investment, as long as the consolidated net leverage ratio is at least 0.25 less than otherwise required under the New Credit Agreement.

Borrowings under the New Credit Agreement bear interest at a variable rate equal to (i) the term SOFR, plus a credit spread adjustment of 0.10%, subject to a 0% floor, plus a specified margin based upon our net leverage ratio as of the most recent determination date, or (ii) the alternate base rate (“ABR”) (which is ~~2.35%~~the highest of (a) the prime rate, (b) the greater of the federal funds rate and the overnight bank funding rate plus 0.50% or (c) the sum of 1% plus one-month SOFR plus a credit spread adjustment of 0.10%), subject to a 1% floor, plus a specified margin based upon our net leverage ratio as of the most recent determination date; provided, however, as of the effective date of the New Credit Agreement, in respect of revolving loans, the applicable margin is 1.75% for SOFR borrowings and ~~1.35%~~0.75% for ABR borrowings, ~~which~~and will be adjusted for the first time thereafter based upon our net leverage ratio as determined for the fiscal year ending December 28, 2023. We will also be required to pay a variable rate facility fee ~~rate~~depending on our consolidated net leverage ratio; provided, however that such fee will be 0.25% and ~~specified margins~~ will ~~remain~~be adjusted for the first time thereafter based upon our consolidated net leverage ratio as determined for the fiscal year ending December 28, 2023.

In connection with the New Credit Agreement, (i) we and certain of our subsidiaries have pledged, subject to certain exceptions, security interests and liens in ~~effect until~~and on (a) substantially all of their respective personal property assets and (b) certain of their respective real property assets, in each case to secure the ~~end~~New Credit Agreement and related obligations; and (ii) certain of our subsidiaries have guaranteed our obligations under the New Credit Agreement.

In connection with entering into the New Credit Agreement, on October 16, 2023, we and certain purchasers entered into the Sixth Amendment to: (i) the Note Purchase Agreement, dated December 21, 2016, for our 4.32% Senior Notes due February 22, 2027, and (ii) the Note Purchase Agreement, dated June 27, 2013, for our 4.02% Senior Notes due August 14, 2025 (collectively, the “Note Amendments” and such Note Purchase Agreements, as previously amended and as amended by the Note Amendments, the “Amended Senior Note Agreements”). The Note Amendments revise the Note Purchase Agreements so that the Amended Senior Note Agreements’ covenants and collateral provisions are consistent with those set forth in the New Credit Agreement. Customary fees were payable in connection with the closing of the ~~first fiscal quarter ending after the end of any period in which the testing of any financial covenant in the Credit Agreement is suspended (the “specified period”).~~Note Amendments.
