Cedar Fair reports slightly lower attendance at the company’s theme parks. You may recall that the company, which owns Disneyland-competitor Knott’s Berry Farm, recently acquired Paramount Parks.
"Some of our northern parks have faced tough economic conditions, which we believe was the main factor affecting attendance during this season," said Dick Kinzel, chairman, president and chief executive officer. "On the positive side, the Paramount Parks have performed well since the June 30 acquisition, demonstrating the benefit of a more geographically diverse portfolio."
