Lucky Strike Entertainment reports Q1 2027 results, suspends dividend and reaffirms guidance

Lucky Strike Entertainment posted first‑quarter fiscal 2027 revenue of $303 million, while same‑store sales fell 2.6% year‑over‑year. Adjusted EBITDA was $72 million and the company reaffirmed its full‑year guidance of $1.28‑$1.31 billion in revenue and $340‑$360 million in EBITDA. Management announced a suspension of the quarterly dividend to free about $35 million a year and target roughly $100 million of debt reduction over the next twelve months.

Oppenheimer kept an Outperform rating and a $10.00 price target, noting the dividend suspension supports deleveraging. The $100 million debt‑paydown plan and lower leverage could improve the company’s credit profile and cash flow outlook.
