The Interpreter Posted September 20, 2008 Author Share Posted September 20, 2008 Instead of talking about profits, you could talk about EBITDA...oh, wait...two major companies in the amusement park business both do that almost exclusively, to the maximum extent permissible under law....until in some circumstances even EBITDA didn't look good, so then they talk attendance, or guest satisfaction, or weather or general economic conditions or gasoline prices or something else...
