SeaWorld Entertainment is a holding company. Through its wholly-owned subsidiary, SeaWorld Parks & Entertainment, Inc., Co. owns and operates theme parks within the U.S. Co.'s portfolio of branded theme parks includes: SeaWorld, a marine-life theme park brand; Busch Gardens theme parks, which are family oriented destinations designed to serve guests in international geographic settings; Aquatica-branded water parks, which are family oriented destinations in a South Seas-themed tropical setting; Sesame Place, a theme park dedicated to the television show, Sesame Street; and Adventure Island water park which features water rides, dining and other attractions that incorporate a Key West theme. The SEAS stock yearly return is shown above.
The yearly return on the SEAS stock yearly return page and across the coverage universe of our site,
is a measure of the annual return over the calendar year 2014 for the given stock.
When performing this calculation it is important to factor in dividends, because a financial instrument's annual return is
more than just the change in price if that instrument pays a dividend or coupon.
One way to factor dividends into the return is simply to count them as cash — we don't do
that here. Instead, our website aims to empower investors
by performing the SEAS annual return calculation with any dividends reinvested as applicable (on ex-dates).
