Low Cyclicality
• The recreational sports industry has demonstrated long-term durability driven
by wide appeal to adults and children across demographic groups
• Chelsea Piers' leasing business has experienced an average vacancy rate of
nearly 0% over the past 25 years
During recessionary periods, the recreational sports industry benefits from
resilient demand as consumers, specifically parents, look to cut costs in other
areas of spending before trimming back spending on their children
Low Secular Threat
• The core Chelsea Piers experience is a combination of socialization and sports
/ active recreation, which cannot be digitized or disrupted
●
·
Despite the expansion of technology in daily lives since the dot-com boom, total
sports participation has steadily increased from 16.4% in 2000 to 20.1% in
2022(1)
Experiential Durability & Longevity
• Durable business model with a track record of recovering quickly from financial
(e.g., 2008 financial crisis), civil (e.g., 9/11), natural (e.g., Hurricane Sandy) and
health (e.g., COVID-19 pandemic) crises while achieving consistent EBITDA
margins
Subscription and membership pricing model provides a large, stable source of
recurring revenue resulting from a loyal customer base
Favorable Supply / Demand Balance
• There are significant barriers to entry in the recreational sports sector in New
York City, especially at the size and scale of Chelsea Piers
• Chelsea Piers has the only recreational ice hockey rinks in New York City and
has indoor sport, pool and film production facilities in an otherwise supply-
constrained market
