Eric Hausler, the Company's chief executive officer, commented:

"We grew Property Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margins year over year during the second quarter.  In the first two months of the quarter, we experienced softer year-over-year trends; however, we saw a solid rebound in October, which has continued into the early part of our fiscal third quarter.   

"Property Adjusted EBITDA increased 1.8%, led by record quarterly Adjusted EBITDA results from our four Missouri properties and Waterloo, while Bettendorf generated strong initial results from its land-based facility, as Adjusted EBITDA increased 26.2% year over year. 

"Our Adjusted EBITDA was relatively flat year over year in the second quarter against a challenging comparison of a 9% increase in the prior year, as we had higher corporate expenses largely due to the impact of incremental legal expenses during the quarter. 

"The second quarter was the first full operating quarter for our new land-based casino and entertainment facility in Bettendorf.  We led the Quad Cities market in total gaming revenues in each of the months since the property opened.  While still early, we are pleased with the initial returns on our investment.  Customer reception to the land-based facility has been very positive. 

"During the quarter, we continued to reinvigorate our properties through prudent capital investments.  We expect to complete the previously announced buffet renovations at Kansas City and Black Hawk in early December.  We also completed the addition of new hotel furniture at Black Hawk, exterior painting and signage at Boonville and several other projects. 

"At the same time, we improved our balance sheet during the second quarter. Our debt balance is now below $900 million, as we reduced debt by $34.5 million during the second quarter.        

"During the quarter, we executed on a variety of other strategic initiatives which we believe significantly enhanced shareholder value.  Most notably, on September 19th we announced that we have signed a definitive agreement to sell all of the outstanding shares of stock of the Company to Eldorado Resorts, Inc. (NASDAQ: ERI) for approximately $950 million in cash and stock.  We believe this transaction, which will create a regional gaming company with significant scale, geographic diversity and free cash flow, provides our shareholders with both immediate value and the benefit from the potential upside expected from the significant operating synergies between these two companies.  We are working closely with the Eldorado team to plan a smooth transition, and expect the transaction to close in the second quarter of calendar 2017. 

"Subsequent to the announcement of the transaction with Eldorado, we announced that we have entered into a definitive agreement to sell Marquette to an affiliate of Casino Queen for approximately $40 million.  In combination with the previously announced $134.5 million sale of Lake Charles to Laguna Development Corporation, the replacement of the riverboat in Bettendorf, and other completed transactions, over 95% of our pro forma Adjusted EBITDA is now generated by land-based or barge-based casino operations compared to five years ago when over 30% of our EBITDA came from first-generation riverboats." 

Financial Highlights

The second quarter results reflect both Lake Charles and Marquette in discontinued operations and as assets held for sale for all periods presented. 

Net revenues for the current quarter were $198.6 million, compared to $200.5 million in the prior year quarter, down 0.9%. 

Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA was $42.9 million for the quarter compared to $43.3 million in the prior year quarter, down 0.9%.  Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA margins increased slightly to 21.6%.  Operating income decreased to $21.3 million from $23.7 million in the prior year quarter, as the current quarter contained $3.4 million of transaction costs related to the previously announced transaction with Eldorado Resorts, Inc.

Interest expense was $16.8 million compared to $17.0 million in the prior year quarter, as a result of our lower overall debt balance.

Our income tax benefit for the current quarter reflects the reversal of $19.6 million in tax valuation allowances as a result of the announced sale of Lake Charles and Marquette associated with their indefinite lived intangible assets becoming definite lived.

On a GAAP basis, diluted income per share from continuing operations was $0.54 compared to diluted income per share from continuing operations of $0.14 in the prior year's quarter.  Adjusted diluted net income per share was $0.13 during the current quarter compared to $0.14 in the prior year's quarter.

Operating Results

(All comparisons are to the prior year quarter)

Black Hawk – Net revenues decreased $1.9 million, or 5.7%, to $31.7 million and Adjusted EBITDA decreased $1.0 million, or 9.7%, to $9.0 million, at our two casinos in Black Hawk. The property was impacted by the closure of the buffet for renovation during the quarter and an increased competitive environment.

Pompano – Net revenues decreased $1.1 million, or 2.7%, to $37.5 million, and Adjusted EBITDA decreased 9.1%, to $6.6 million at Pompano Park.  We experienced a brief closure for Hurricane Matthew during the quarter which impacted operating results.  We also expensed approximately $0.3 million in costs related to the potential development of a new administration building, which we determined we would not move forward with during the quarter.  

Iowa – Net revenues for our Iowa properties increased $1.9 million, or 4.8%, compared to prior year, and Adjusted EBITDA increased $1.5 million, to $12.9 million.

The second quarter was the first full quarter of operations at our new land-based facility in Bettendorf.  Net revenues increased $2.5 million and Adjusted EBITDA increased $1.3 million, or 26.2%, for the quarter year over year at our Bettendorf property.  Adjusted EBITDA margins improved 290 bps to 29.0%, from a combination of higher revenues and the new more efficient facility.  We will continue to refine the operations during the coming quarters to optimize our ramp up of the new facility.

Waterloo posted its highest second quarter Adjusted EBITDA since opening in June 2007 as a result of a more efficient cost structure.  Adjusted EBITDA margins at the property improved 185 basis points and Adjusted EBITDA increased $0.2 million, or 3.1%, to $6.8 million.

Mississippi – Net revenues for Lula and Vicksburg decreased 3.4%, to $18.4 million while Adjusted EBITDA increased $0.1 million, to $4.0 million, or 1.8%. 

Vicksburg's net revenues increased $0.5 million, or 7.9%, and Adjusted EBITDA increased $0.5 million, or 37.1%, to $1.8 million.  The property has continued to benefit from changes in our marketing reinvestment strategy and the management team's strong focus on operational efficiency.

The Lula market continues to be negatively impacted by increased competition in the Arkansas market.  Net revenues at our Lula property decreased $1.2 million, to $11.0 million and Adjusted EBITDA decreased $0.4 million, or 15.4%.   

Missouri – Net revenues for our Missouri properties increased $0.3 million, to $59.9 million and Adjusted EBITDA increased $1.1 million, to $17.1 million.  Our Missouri properties continue to post strong results with all four producing their highest second quarter Adjusted EBITDA since opening/acquisition.

Cape Girardeau's net revenues increased $0.3 million, or 1.9%, and Adjusted EBITDA increased $0.5 million, to $3.6 million or 14.2%.  The property's Adjusted EBITDA margin improved 254 bps and the property generated 155% flow-through on incremental revenues.

Boonville continues to post the Company's highest Adjusted EBITDA margin, at 36.6% for the quarter.  During the second quarter of fiscal 2017, net revenues increased 2.7%, to $19.4 million and Adjusted EBITDA increased 3.6%, to $7.1 million, as the property benefited from recent hotel room renovations as well as more productive marketing reinvestment.

Kansas City reported record second quarter Adjusted EBITDA, despite net revenues decreasing 2.9%, to $17.0 million. Adjusted EBITDA increased 7.5%, to $4.2 million. We began remodeling and rebranding the Kansas City buffet to a Farmer's Pick in late June which caused some construction disruption at the property. We expect to reopen the buffet in early December.

In Caruthersville, net revenues were flat at $8.2 million while Adjusted EBITDA improved by 4.6%, to $2.1 million, and Adjusted EBITDA margins improved 101 bps primarily due to continued strategic marketing spending and capital investments we have made to the property. 

Pennsylvania – At Nemacolin, net revenues decreased 6.2%, to $9.0 million while Adjusted EBITDA decreased $0.1 million to a loss of $(0.1) million.  The property was impacted by an increase in table games tax rates during the quarter, as well as an increase in state administrative fees.

Corporate Expenses

Corporate and development expenses were $8.3 million for the quarter compared to $7.0 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2016, largely as a result of higher legal fees of approximately $0.5 million related to ongoing litigation during the quarter.

Non-cash stock compensation expense was flat at $1.6 million for the second quarter of both fiscal 2017 and fiscal 2016. 

Capital Structure and Capital Expenditures

As of October 23, 2016, the Company had:

  • $53.9 million in cash and cash equivalents, excluding $32.0 million in restricted cash and investments;
  • $897.2 million in total debt; and
  • $249.4 million in net line of credit availability, the outstanding balance on the revolving credit facility was $42.3 million at quarter end, while leverage for bank purposes was 4.4x.

Second quarter capital expenditures were $10.0 million, excluding spending related to the land-based project in Bettendorf.  We spent $7.2 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2017 on the land-based project at Bettendorf.  For the project through the end of the second quarter, we have expended $51.6 million

1.

Adjusted EBITDA is "earnings from continuing operations before interest and other non-operating income (expense), income taxes, stock-based compensation, preopening expenses and depreciation and amortization." Adjusted EBITDA is presented solely as a supplemental disclosure because management believes that it is 1) a widely used measure of operating performance in the gaming industry, 2) used as a component of calculating required leverage and minimum interest coverage ratios under our Senior Credit Facility and 3) a principal basis of valuing gaming companies. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA as the primary measure of the Company's operating properties' performance, and it is an important component in evaluating the performance of management and other operating personnel in the determination of certain components of employee compensation.  Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an alternative to operating income as an indicator of the Company's operating performance, as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity or as an alternative to any other measure determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP).  The Company has significant uses of cash flows, including capital expenditures, interest payments, taxes and debt principal repayments, which are not reflected in Adjusted EBITDA. Also, other gaming companies that report Adjusted EBITDA information may calculate Adjusted EBITDA in a different manner than the Company. A reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to income (loss) from continuing operations is included in the financial schedules accompanying this release.




Certain of our debt agreements use a similar calculation of "Adjusted EBITDA" as a financial measure for the calculation of financial debt covenants and includes add back of items such as gain on early extinguishment of debt, preopening expenses and non-cash stock compensation expense. Reference can be made to the definition of Adjusted EBITDA in the applicable debt agreements on file as Exhibits to our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. 



2.

Adjusted income (loss) is presented solely as a supplemental disclosure as this is one method management reviews and utilizes to analyze the performance of its core operating business.  For many of the same reasons mentioned above related to Adjusted EBITDA, management believes Adjusted income (loss) and Adjusted income (loss) per share are useful analytic tools as they enable management to track the performance of its core casino operating business separate and apart from factors that do not impact decisions affecting its operating casino properties, such as loss on early extinguishment of debt and preopening expenses.  Management believes Adjusted income (loss) and Adjusted income (loss) per share are useful to investors since these adjustments provide a measure of financial performance that more closely resembles widely used measures of performance and valuation in the gaming industry.  Adjusted income (loss) and adjusted income (loss) per share do not include the loss on early extinguishment of debt and preopening expenses.



3.

On September 19, 2016, the Company entered into an agreement and plan of merger with Eldorado Resorts, Inc., whereby Eldorado will acquire all of the outstanding shares of the Company.  During the three months ended October 23, 2016, the Company incurred $3.4 million in transaction expenses associated with this agreement.



4.

The Company had preopening expenses of $0.6 million in the six months ended October 23, 2016 related to the Bettendorf land-based casino which opened on June 24, 2016.  During the three months ended October 23, 2016, we sold the previous Bettendorf riverboat for a gain of $1.0 million.
