Six Flags, once burdened by debt, has been building momentum since it reorganized in U.S. Bankruptcy Court. A new management team led by Jim Reid-Anderson, chairman, president and chief executive officer, changed course. Six Flags Entertainment on Wednesday reported net income of $143.8 million, or $2.59 a share, compared with a net loss of $102 million, or $1.85 a share, the same quarter a year ago.
