Recent Trends and Outlook The Company's ski operations are highly sensitive Adj. 1. highly sensitive - readily affected by various agents; "a highly sensitive explosive is easily exploded by a shock"; "a sensitive colloid is readily coagulated" to weather conditions and the overall strength of the national economy and the regional economies in which the Company operates. Recent trends affecting the Company's early season results for the 2002/03 ski season The examples and perspective in this article or section may not represent a worldwide view of the subject. Please [ improve this article] or discuss the issue on the talk page. include the following: -- The opening dates for the Company's resorts for the 2002/03 ski season were as follows:
Northstar.................................... Nov. 22, 2002
Sierra....................................... Dec. 16, 2002
Waterville Valley............................ Nov. 22, 2002
Mt. Cranmore................................. Nov. 29, 2002
Loon Mountain................................ Nov. 15, 2002
The Summit................................... Dec. 27, 2002
-- The Lake Tahoe region experienced relatively dry conditions and a lack of natural snowfall through mid-Dec. 2002. During the period of Dec. 14th to the 21st, the region received a number of powerful storms resulting in over six feet of snowfall at Northstar and Sierra. While the storms provided excellent skiing conditions for the Christmas holiday season, the storms caused prolonged power outages prior to Christmas, difficult road conditions and other factors which negatively affected skier visitation for the Company's Lake Tahoe resorts on a number of days during mid-Dec. 2002.
-- During the early part of the 2002/03 ski season, the northeastern United States experienced generally colder temperatures and increased snowfall as compared to the record warm winter of 2001/02. As a result, the Company's New Hampshire resorts have experienced generally good operating conditions for the early part of the 2002/03 ski season.
-- From the opening of the 2002/03 ski season through late Jan. 2003, the Pacific Northwest has experienced unseasonably warm temperatures and below-average snowfall. The Company's Summit resort commenced partial operations on Dec. 27, 2002, as compared to a Nov. 30, 2001 opening for the 2001/02 ski season. Further, conditions at the Summit were generally favorable throughout the 2001/02 ski season. The difficult early season conditions at the Summit during the 2002/03 ski season have negatively affected early season skier visitation to a significant extent as compared to the 2001/02 season.
-- A meaningful portion of the Company's customer base is comprised of committed season pass holders. Through mid-Jan. 2003, the Company's 2002/03 season pass sales were approximately 27% higher than the total level of season passes sold for the 2001/02 ski season. A portion of the increase is attributable to the introduction of new pass products which could reduce sales of other lift ticket products.
-- The impact of the relatively weak United States economy on the Company's business is not presently determinable. Although, historically, economic downturns have not had a material adverse effect on the ski industry in general, there can be no assurance that the current economic downturn will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations.
