How rich is Six Flags?

Six Flags Entertainment has a market cap or net worth of $2.06 billion as of November 14, 2023. Its market cap has increased by 17.09% in one year.



As of early 2026, Six Flags Entertainment Corporation is a multi-billion dollar entity, though its financial "wealth" is currently characterized by high revenue but significant debt. Following its merger and various infrastructure investments, the company reported annual revenues of approximately $3.1 billion for the 2025 fiscal year. Its total net worth (market capitalization) is estimated at around $1.25 billion to $1.68 billion, fluctuating with market conditions. Despite generating significant cash flow from its 27+ parks across North America, Six Flags carries a substantial debt load of roughly $5.11 billion, which it is actively working to refinance in 2026. The company’s "wealth" is largely tied up in its massive real estate holdings and its portfolio of world-record-breaking roller coasters. In 2026, management has prioritized "balance sheet strengthening," focusing on increasing per-capita guest spending (which rose to over $61) rather than just raw attendance numbers to drive profitability and reduce the leverage on its multibillion-dollar valuation.
