SeaWorld Entertainment Inc. fell to its lowest level since the stock began trading in April after it slashed ticket prices amid a drop in attendance.

The Orlando, Florida-based company, which sold $807 million in shares in an initial public offering, dropped 6.5 percent to $29.70 at the close in New York, its lowest price since the company went public on April 19. The decline pared SeaWorld’s increase over the $27-a-share IPO price to 10 percent.
