PROFILE |
 |
For millions of people, Six Flags is the standard-bearer for theme park thrills. Formerly Premier Parks, the company is the #2 amusement park operator in the world (behind Walt Disney), drawing some 50 million visitors to its 39 parks in Europe and North America. Most of its parks operate under the Six Flags banner (including Six Flags Great America, Six Flags Over Texas, and Six Flags Magic Mountain) and feature thrill rides, water slides, and other family entertainment. Gate receipts account for about 55% of sales, with the rest coming from food and merchandise. Its European operations contribute nearly 20% of total revenue. Five investment firms, including FMR and Mellon Financial, own nearly 40% of the company.
