                       Viad Corp Provides 2006 Outlook at
     Investor/Analyst Meeting; Income Per Share of $1.51 to $1.62 Excluding
 $0.06 Per Share of Stock Option Expense; Earnings Per Share of $1.45 to $1.56


    PHOENIX--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Dec. 15, 2005--Viad Corp (NYSE:VVI)
today will discuss the company's outlook for 2006 during an
investor/analyst meeting. Viad provides the following guidance for
2006:

    --  Full year income per diluted share (excluding expected stock
        option expense of $0.06 per share) is expected to be in the
        range of $1.51 to $1.62 for 2006. Earnings per share is
        expected to be in the range of $1.45 to $1.56 for 2006. This
        range compares favorably to the company's 2005 guidance of
        $1.38 to $1.42 of income before impairment loss per share
        (which excludes an impairment loss of $0.02 per share).
        Improvements are expected in all of Viad's operating segments.

    --  2006 first quarter income per share (excluding expected stock
        option expense of $0.02 per share) is expected to be in the
        range of $0.37 to $0.45. Earnings per share is expected to be
        in the range of $0.35 to $0.43 for the 2006 first quarter. The
        decrease from first quarter 2005 income from continuing
        operations per share of $0.56 is expected to be driven mainly
        by negative show rotation at GES.

    --  Show rotation is also expected to impact second and third
        quarter revenue. During the 2006 second quarter, Viad expects
        that positive show rotation revenue at GES will more than
        offset negative show rotation revenue at Exhibitgroup. During
        the 2006 third quarter, Viad expects positive show rotation
        revenue at both GES and Exhibitgroup. Rotation at Exhibitgroup
        relates to a European air show that alternates between the
        second and third quarters each year.

    --  For the full year, show rotation is not expected to have a
        significant impact on Viad's revenue.
