Golden Entertainment Announces Third Quarter 2015 Results

– Completed Lakes Entertainment/Sartini Gaming Merger in July 2015 –

LAS VEGAS – November 4, 2015 – Golden Entertainment, Inc. (formerly Lakes Entertainment, Inc.) (NASDAQ:GDEN) today announced financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2015.

Highlights for the Third Quarter Ended September 30, 2015

●

On July 31, 2015, Sartini Gaming, Inc. (“Sartini Gaming”) merged with a subsidiary of Lakes Entertainment (the “Merger”). In connection with the Merger, Lakes Entertainment was renamed Golden Entertainment (“Golden Entertainment” or the “Company”). With the completion of the Merger, the Company owns and operates approximately 9,300 gaming devices, as well as approximately 30 table games across four casino properties, 48 taverns and 670 route locations.

●

Net revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2015 were $62.5 million, an increase of 292% compared to the prior year period. For the quarter ended September 30, 2015, net income was $3.0 million, or $0.16 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $(23.1) million, or $(1.72) per diluted share in the prior year quarter. These results include the operations of Sartini Gaming for 61 days during the quarter.

●

Combined Net Revenues and Combined Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter ended September 30, 2015 were $86.2 million and $9.9 million, respectively, presented as if the results of Sartini Gaming had been included for the entire 2015 third quarter. The combined results reflect a 6.1% increase in net revenues for the Distributed Gaming segment compared to the prior year quarter.

●

On July 31, 2015, the Company completed the syndication of a new $160.0 million senior secured credit facility maturing in 2020, of which $145.0 million was drawn at closing.

●

Announced plans to add four Las Vegas tavern locations in 2016, including the opening of the Company’s first brewery.

“This quarter was transformational for the Company and with the completion of the Merger, we have achieved an exceptional combination of assets and team members. Everyone is excited by the opportunities arising out of this transaction,” said Blake L. Sartini, Chief Executive Officer of Golden Entertainment. “Going forward, in addition to the current portfolio that is generating strong free cash flow, we are focused on executing on a broad slate of long-term growth opportunities, both organic as well as strategic, while continuing to deliver a quality experience to customers and generating returns for shareholders.”

The following unaudited combined results illustrate the net revenues and Adjusted EBITDA for the Company and Sartini Gaming on a combined basis for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and September 28, 2014, for each segment, presented as if the Merger had occurred on the first day of each period presented. These unaudited combined financial results have been prepared for illustrative purposes only and do not purport to be indicative of the results that actually would have resulted had the Merger occurred on the first day of the periods presented, or of the future results of the Company.

Combined Net Revenues and Combined Adjusted EBITDA reflect the operations of Sartini Gaming for periods prior to the Merger combined with the operations of the Company. Such presentation does not conform with GAAP or the Securities and Exchange Commission rules for pro forma presentations; however, we have included the combined results because we believe they provide a meaningful comparison for the periods presented.

(2)

The Company’s Distributed Gaming segment involves the installation and operation of gaming devices in certain strategic, high-traffic, non-casino locations (such as grocery stores, convenience stores, restaurants, bars and taverns) in Nevada, and the operation of traditional, branded taverns targeting local patrons, primarily in Clark County, Nevada. The Company’s Casinos segment consists of three casinos in Pahrump, Nevada and the Rocky Gap Casino Resort in Flintstone, Maryland.

(3)

The unaudited combined financial information for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and September 28, 2014 is derived from the Company’s unaudited consolidated statements of operations for such periods and Sartini Gaming’s unaudited consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended September 30, 2014 and for the one month ended July 31, 2015.

(4)

The unaudited combined financial information for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and September 28, 2014 is derived from the Company’s unaudited consolidated statements of operations for such periods and Sartini Gaming’s unaudited consolidated statements of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and for the seven months ended July 31, 2015.

Results for the Three Months Ended September 30, 2015

Net revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2015 were $62.5 million, an increase of 292% compared to the prior year period. Adjusted EBITDA for the current year quarter was $7.1 million, compared to $1.6 million in the prior year quarter.

For the quarter ended September 30, 2015, net income was $3.0 million, or $0.16 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $(23.1) million, or $(1.72) per diluted share in the prior year quarter. The current year results include the operations of Sartini Gaming for 61 days during the quarter. During the current year quarter, the Company incurred $9.3 million in Merger expenses, as well as an income tax benefit of $12.9 million. The results for the prior year quarter were impacted by impairments and other losses of $21.0 million related to an investment in Rock Ohio Ventures.

Results for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2015

Net revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 were $90.6 million, an increase of 114% from the prior year period. Adjusted EBITDA for the current year period was $8.9 million, compared to $1.2 million in the prior year.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, net income was $1.1 million, or $0.07 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $(24.8) million, or $(1.85) per diluted share in the prior year period. The current year results include the operations of Sartini Gaming for 61 days during the nine months ended September 30, 2015. During the current year period, the Company incurred $10.6 million in Merger expenses, as well as an income tax benefit of $12.7 million. The results for the prior year period were impacted by impairments and other losses of $21.0 million related to an investment in Rock Ohio Ventures.

Balance Sheet, Liquidity and Capital Expenditures

As of September 30, 2015, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $43.2 million and total outstanding debt of $146.4 million. Total debt outstanding included a fully drawn $120.0 million senior secured term loan and $25.0 million drawn under the Company’s $40.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility. The Company’s senior secured term loan and revolving credit facilities mature in July 2020. As of September 30, 2015, the weighted average effective interest rate on outstanding borrowings under these credit facilities was approximately 3.0%. Had Sartini Gaming operations been included in the Company’s results for the twelve months ended July 31, 2015, and had the new credit facilities been in place during that period, the Company estimates that it would have achieved combined annual interest expense savings of approximately $18 million as a result of a lower interest rate under the new credit facilities compared to actual rates applicable to the secured debt of the companies during that period. For the third quarter ended September 30, 2015, capital expenditures were $1.3 million compared to $0.9 million in the prior year quarter.

Forward-looking statements can generally be identified by the use of words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “forecast,” “intend,” “plan,” “project,” “seek,” “should,” “think,” “will,” “would” and similar expressions. In addition, forward-looking statements include statements regarding the Company’s strategies, objectives, business opportunities and plans for future expansion, developments or acquisitions, anticipated future growth or trends in the Company’s business or key markets, projections of future financial condition or operating results, as well as other statements that are not statements of historical fact. Forward-looking statements are subject to assumptions, risks and uncertainties that may change at any time, and readers are therefore cautioned that actual results could differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause actual results to differ include: the Company’s ability to realize the anticipated cost savings, synergies and other benefits from the Merger and integration risks, changes in national, regional and local economic and market conditions, legislative and regulatory matters, increases in gaming taxes and fees, litigation, increased competition, the Company’s ability to renew its distributed gaming contracts, reliance on key personnel, the level of the Company’s indebtedness and the Company’s ability to comply with covenants in its debt facilities, terrorist incidents, natural disasters, severe weather conditions, the effects of environmental and structural building conditions, the effects of disruptions to the Company’s information technology systems, and other factors affecting the gaming, entertainment and hospitality industries generally.

The Company undertakes no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement the Company’s consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), the Company uses Adjusted EBITDA, Combined Net Revenues and Combined Adjusted EBITDA, which measures the Company believes are appropriate to provide meaningful comparison with, and to enhance an overall understanding of, the Company’s past financial performance and prospects for the future. The Company believes Adjusted EBITDA and Combined Adjusted EBITDA provide useful information to both management and investors by excluding specific expenses that the Company believes are not indicative of its core operating results. Further, Adjusted EBITDA is a measure of operating performance used by management, as well as industry analysts, to evaluate operations and operating performance and is widely used in the gaming industry. The presentation of this additional information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of net Income (loss) to Adjusted EBITDA and Combined Adjusted EBITDA is provided in the financial information tables below. Additionally, a reconciliation of net revenues to Combined Net Revenues is provided in the financial information tables below.

The Company defines “Adjusted EBITDA” as earnings before interest and other non-operating income (expense), taxes, depreciation and amortization, preopening expenses, merger expenses, share-based compensation expenses, impairments and other gains and losses. “Adjusted EBITDA” for a particular segment is Adjusted EBITDA before corporate overhead, which is not allocated to each segment.
