Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)

1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
Basis of Presentation
Churchill Downs Incorporated (the "Company" or "CDI") financial statements are presented in conformity with the requirements of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and consequently do not include all of the disclosures normally required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") or those normally made in our Annual Report on Form 10-K. The December 31, 2023 Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet data was derived from audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP.
The following information is unaudited. All per share amounts assume dilution unless otherwise noted. This report should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.
In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of this information have been made, and all such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature.
We conduct our business through three reportable segments: Live and Historical Racing, TwinSpires, and Gaming. We aggregate our other businesses as well as certain corporate operations, and other immaterial joint ventures, in All Other. We report net revenue and operating expense associated with these reportable segments in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income.
2. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
Recent Accounting Pronouncements - effective in 2024 or thereafter
In October 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2023-06, Disclosure Improvements: Codification Amendments in Response to the Securities and Exchange Commission’s ("SEC") Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative, to amend certain disclosure and presentation requirements for a variety of topics within FASB's Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC"). These amendments align the requirements in the ASC regarding the removal of certain disclosure requirements set out in Regulation S-X and Regulation S-K, announced by the SEC. The effective date for each amended topic in the ASC is either the date on which the SEC’s removal of the related disclosure requirement from Regulation S-X or Regulation S-K becomes effective, or on June 30, 2027, if the SEC has not removed the requirements by that date. Early adoption is prohibited. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which enhances the disclosures required for operating segments in the Company’s annual and interim consolidated financial statements. The amendments are effective for the Company in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption of the amendment is permitted, including adoption in any interim periods for which financial statements have not been issued. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. ASU 2023-09 is intended to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures. The amendments address investor requests for enhanced income tax information primarily through changes to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments are expected to be applied prospectively to all annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
3. ACQUISITIONS
Exacta Systems
On August 22, 2023, the Company completed its acquisition of Exacta Systems, LLC ("Exacta") for a purchase consideration of $248.2 million, net of cash acquired, which consisted of a $241.3 million cash payment and $6.9 million of deferred payments, which are payable over two years from acquisition (the "Exacta Transaction"). As of March 31, 2024, there were $4.9 million deferred payments remaining. Exacta is a leading provider of central determinate system technology in Historical Racing Machines ("HRMs") across the country. The Exacta Transaction is enabling the Company to realize significant synergies related to the Company’s HRM operations. Exacta operates within the Company’s TwinSpires segment and will continue to service its growing portfolio of third-party HRM operators in Kentucky, Wyoming, and New Hampshire.

Goodwill of $177.4 million related to the Exacta Transaction was recognized, of which $96.0 million was allocated to the Live and Historical Racing segment and $81.4 million was allocated to the TwinSpires segment. The goodwill related to the Exacta Transaction is deductible for tax purposes.

Goodwill, by segment, is composed of the following:

In the second quarter of 2023, the Company recognized a $24.5 million non-cash impairment charge for the Presque Isle Downs and Casino ("Presque Isle") gaming rights and trademark. The Company continues to monitor the current economic conditions and the impacts on the results of operations of Presque Isle. Future economic conditions could have a negative impact on the estimates and assumptions utilized in our asset impairment assessments. These potential impacts could increase the risk of a future impairment of assets at Presque Isle.
5. INCOME TAXES
The Company’s effective income tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was equal to the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21.0%. The Company's income tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2024 includes an unfavorable impact from state income taxes and non-deductible officer’s compensation, that was offset by a $5.6 million benefit from the remeasurement of deferred income tax liabilities as a result of certain entity classification elections that were made in the first quarter of 2024 decreasing income attributable to states with higher tax rates compared to prior year.
The Company’s effective income tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was higher than the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21.0% primarily resulting from state income taxes and non-deductible officer’s compensation.
6. SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY
Stock Repurchase Programs
On September 29, 2021, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a common stock repurchase program of up to $500.0 million (the "2021 Stock Repurchase Program"). The 2021 Stock Repurchase Program includes and is not in addition to any unspent amount remaining under the prior program authorization. Repurchases may be made at management’s discretion from time to time on the open market (either with or without a 10b5-1 plan) or through privately negotiated transactions. The repurchase program has no time limit and may be suspended or discontinued at any time. We had approximately $192.9 million of repurchase authority remaining under the 2021 Stock Repurchase Program at March 31, 2024, based on trade date.

On January 2, 2024, the Company closed on an agreement, dated December 18, 2023, with an affiliate of The Duchossois Group ("TDG") to repurchase 1,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, for $123.75 per share in a privately negotiated transaction for an aggregate purchase price of $123.8 million. This represented a discount of 4.03% to the closing price on December 15, 2023 of $128.95. The repurchase of shares of common stock from TDG was approved by the Company's Board of Directors separately from and did not reduce the authorized amount remaining under any existing common stock repurchase programs. The repurchase of the shares was funded using available cash and borrowings under the Company’s senior secured credit facility.
Two for One Stock Split
Effective May 22, 2023, the Company's common stock was split two-for-one with a proportionate increase in the number of its authorized shares of common stock. All share and per-share amounts in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the effects of the stock split.
7. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION PLANS
We have stock-based employee compensation plans with awards outstanding under the Churchill Downs Incorporated 2016 Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan (the "2016 Plan") and the Executive Long-Term Incentive Compensation Plan, which was adopted pursuant to the 2016 Plan. Our total stock-based compensation expense, which includes expenses related to restricted stock awards, restricted stock unit awards ("RSUs"), performance share unit awards ("PSUs"), and stock options associated with our employee stock purchase plan was $7.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and $8.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023.
During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company awarded RSUs to employees, RSUs and PSUs to certain named executive officers ("NEOs"), and RSUs to directors. The vesting criteria for the PSU awards granted in 2024 were based on a three-year service period with two performance conditions and a market condition related to relative total shareholder return ("TSR") consistent with prior year grants. The total compensation cost we will recognize under the PSUs is determined using the Monte Carlo valuation methodology, which factors in the value of the TSR market condition when determining the grant date fair value of the PSU. Compensation cost for each PSU is recognized during the performance and service period based on the probable achievement of the two performance criteria. The PSUs are converted into shares of our common stock at the time the PSU award value is finalized.
A summary of the RSUs and PSUs granted during 2024 is presented below (units in thousands):

Credit Agreement
At March 31, 2024, the Company’s senior secured credit facility (as amended from time to time, the “Credit Agreement") consisted of a $1.2 billion revolving credit facility (the "Revolver"), $300.0 million senior secured term loan B-1 due 2028 (the "Term Loan B-1"), $1.3 billion senior secured term loan A due 2027 (the "Term Loan A"), and $100.0 million swing line commitment.
Term Loan B-1 bears interest at the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") plus 210 basis points and requires quarterly payments of 0.25% of the original $300.0 million balance. The Term Loan B-1 may be subject to additional mandatory prepayment from excess cash flow on an annual basis per the provisions of the Credit Agreement.
The Revolver and Term Loan A bear interest at SOFR plus 10 basis points, plus a variable applicable margin which is determined by the Company's net leverage ratio. As of March 31, 2024, that applicable margin was 150 basis points which was based on the pricing grid in the Credit Agreement. The Company had $841.9 million available borrowing capacity, after consideration of $5.1 million in outstanding letters of credit, under the Revolver as of March 31, 2024.
The Company is required to pay a commitment fee on the unused portion of the Revolver as determined by a pricing grid based on the consolidated total net secured leverage ratio of the Company. For the period ended March 31, 2024, the Company's commitment fee rate was 0.25%.
2027 Senior Notes
As of March 31, 2024, we had $600.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 5.500% senior unsecured notes that mature on April 1, 2027 (the "2027 Senior Notes"). The 2027 Senior Notes were issued at par in a private offering to qualified institutional buyers, with interest payable in arrears on April 1st and October 1st of each year, commencing on October 1st, 2019. The Company may redeem some or all of the 2027 Senior Notes at redemption prices set forth in the 2027 Indenture.
2028 Senior Notes
As of March 31, 2024, we had a total of $700.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 4.750% senior unsecured notes (the “2028 Senior Notes”) maturing on January 15, 2028. The 2028 Senior Notes consist of $500.0 million notes issued at par and $200.0 million notes issued at 103.25%. The 2028 Senior Notes were issued in a private offering to qualified institutional buyers, with interest payable in arrears on January 15th and July 15th of each year, commencing on July 15th, 2018. The 3.25% premium is being amortized through interest expense, net over the term of the notes. The Company may redeem some or all the 2028 Senior Notes at redemption prices set forth in the 2028 Indenture.
2030 Senior Notes
As of March 31, 2024, we had $1.2 billion in aggregate principal amount of 5.750% senior unsecured notes that mature on April 13, 2030 (the "2030 Senior Notes"). The 2030 Senior Notes were issued at par in a private offering to qualified

2031 Senior Notes
As of March 31, 2024, we had $600.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 6.750% senior unsecured notes that mature on April 25, 2031 (the "2031 Senior Notes"). The 2031 Senior Notes were issued at par in a private offering to qualified institutional buyers, with interest payable in arrears on May 1st and November 1st of each year, commencing on November 1st, 2023. The Company may redeem some or all of the 2031 Notes at any time prior to April 25, 2025, at redemption prices set forth in the 2031 Offering Memorandum.
9. REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS
Performance Obligations
As of March 31, 2024, our Live and Historical Racing segment had remaining performance obligations on contracts with a duration greater than one year relating to television rights, sponsorships, personal seat licenses, and admissions, with an aggregate transaction price of $157.6 million. The revenue we expect to recognize on these remaining performance obligations is $61.2 million for the remainder of 2024, $47.4 million in 2025, $23.3 million in 2026, and the remainder thereafter.
As of March 31, 2024, our remaining performance obligations on contracts with a duration greater than one year in segments other than Live and Historical Racing were not material.
Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities
As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, contract assets were not material.
As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, contract liabilities were $172.3 million and $92.3 million, respectively, which are included in current deferred revenue, non-current deferred revenue, and accrued expense in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Contract liabilities primarily relate to the Live and Historical Racing segment and the increase was primarily due to deferred revenue related to the 150th Kentucky Derby. We recognized $5.8 million of revenue during the three months ended March 31, 2024, which was included in the contract liabilities balance at December 31, 2023. We recognized $3.6 million of revenue during the three months ended March 31, 2023, which was included in the contract liabilities balance at December 31, 2022.
Disaggregation of Revenue
The Company has included its disaggregated revenue disclosures as follows: 
For the Live and Historical Racing segment, revenue is disaggregated between Churchill Downs Racetrack and historical racing properties given that our racing facilities revenues primarily revolve around live racing events while our historical racing properties revenues primarily revolve around historical racing. This segment is also disaggregated by location given the geographic economic factors that affect the revenue of service offerings. Within the Live and Historical Racing segment, revenue is further disaggregated between live and simulcast racing, historical racing, racing event-related services, and other services.
•    For the TwinSpires segment, revenue is disaggregated between live and simulcast racing, gaming, and other services.
•    For the Gaming segment, revenue is disaggregated by location given the geographic economic factors that affect the revenue of Gaming service offerings. Within the Gaming segment, revenue is further disaggregated between live and simulcast racing, racing event-related services, gaming, and other services.
We believe that these disclosures depict how the amount, nature, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows are affected by economic factors. The tables below present net revenue from external customers and intercompany revenue from each of our segments:

11. INVESTMENTS IN AND ADVANCES TO UNCONSOLIDATED AFFILIATES
Investments in and advances to unconsolidated affiliates as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 primarily consisted of interests in Rivers Casino Des Plaines ("Rivers Des Plaines") and Miami Valley Gaming and Racing ("MVG").
Rivers Casino Des Plaines
The ownership of Rivers Des Plaines is comprised of the following: (1) the Company owns 61.3%, (2) High Plaines Gaming, LLC ("High Plaines"), an affiliate of Rush Street Gaming, LLC, owns 36.0%, and (3) Casino Investors, LLC owns 2.7%. Both the Company and High Plaines have participating rights over Rivers Des Plaines, and both must consent to certain operating, investing and financing decisions. As a result, we account for Rivers Des Plaines using the equity method. As of March 31, 2024, the net aggregate basis difference between the Company’s investment in Rivers Des Plaines and the amounts of the underlying equity in net assets was $832.7 million.
Our investment in Rivers Des Plaines was $532.6 million and $541.2 million as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. The Company received distributions from Rivers Des Plaines of $34.5 million and $33.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
Miami Valley Gaming and Racing
The Company owns a 50% interest in MVG and Delaware North Companies Gaming & Entertainment Inc. ("DNC") owns the remaining 50% interest in MVG. Since both the Company and DNC have participating rights over MVG, and both must consent to certain operating, investing and financing decisions, we account for MVG using the equity method.
Our investment in MVG was $115.2 million and $114.6 million as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. The Company received distributions from MVG of $10.5 million and $12.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

12. FAIR VALUE OF ASSETS AND LIABILITIES
We endeavor to utilize the best available information in measuring fair value. Financial assets and liabilities are classified based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The following methods and assumptions are used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate.
Restricted Cash
Our restricted cash accounts held in money market and interest-bearing accounts qualify for Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy, which includes unadjusted quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets.
Debt
The fair value of the Company’s 2031 Senior Notes, 2030 Senior Notes, 2028 Senior Notes, and 2027 Senior Notes are estimated based on unadjusted quoted prices for identical or similar liabilities in markets that are not active and as such are Level 2 measurements. The fair values of the Company's Term Loan B-1, Term Loan A, and Revolver under the Credit Agreement approximate the gross carrying value of the variable rate debt and as such are Level 2 measurements.

13. CONTINGENCIES
We are involved in litigation arising in the ordinary course of conducting business. We carry insurance for workers' compensation claims from our employees and general liability for claims from independent contractors, customers, and guests. We are self-insured up to an aggregate stop loss for our general liability and workers' compensation coverages.
We review all litigation on an ongoing basis when making accrual and disclosure decisions. For certain legal proceedings, we cannot reasonably estimate losses or a range of loss, if any, particularly for proceedings that are in the early stages of development or where the plaintiffs seek indeterminate damages. Various factors, including but not limited to, the outcome of potentially lengthy discovery and the resolution of important factual questions, may need to be determined before probability can be established or before a loss or range of loss can be reasonably estimated. In accordance with current accounting standards for loss contingencies and based upon information currently known to us, we establish reserves for litigation when it is probable that a loss associated with a claim or proceeding has been incurred and the amount of the loss or range of loss can be reasonably estimated. When no amount within the range of loss is a better estimate than any other amount, we accrue the minimum amount of the estimable loss. To the extent that such litigation against us may have an exposure to a loss in excess of the amount we have accrued, we believe that such excess would not be material to our consolidated financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. Legal fees are expensed as incurred.
If the loss contingency in question is not both probable and reasonably estimable, we do not establish an accrual and the matter will continue to be monitored for any developments that would make the loss contingency both probable and reasonably estimable. In the event that a legal proceeding results in a substantial judgment against us, or settlement by us, there can be no assurance that any resulting liability or financial commitment would not have a material adverse impact on our business.

15. SEGMENT INFORMATION
We manage our operations through three reportable segments: Live and Historical Racing, TwinSpires, and Gaming. Our operating segments reflect the internal management reporting used by our chief operating decision maker to evaluate results of operations and to assess performance and allocate resources.
On September 7, 2023, the Company began operating retail sports betting at its racetracks and HRM facilities in Kentucky. In addition to retail sports betting, third-party service providers began operating online sports wagering in partnership with the Company’s racetracks on September 28, 2023. Our retail and online sports betting business is included in the TwinSpires segment.
Eliminations include the elimination of intersegment transactions. We utilize non-GAAP measures, including EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) and Adjusted EBITDA. Our chief operating decision maker utilizes Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate segment performance, develop strategy, and allocate resources. Adjusted EBITDA includes the following adjustments:
Adjusted EBITDA includes our portion of EBITDA from our equity investments.
Adjusted EBITDA excludes:
Transaction expense, net which includes:
Acquisition, disposition, and property sale related charges;
Other transaction expense, including legal, accounting, and other deal-related expense;
Stock-based compensation expense;
Asset impairments;
Gain on property sales;
Legal reserves;
Pre-opening expense; and
Other charges, recoveries, and expenses
As of December 31, 2021, our property in Arlington Heights, Illinois ("Arlington") ceased racing and simulcast operations and the property was sold on February 15, 2023 to the Chicago Bears. Arlington's results and exit costs in 2023 are treated as an adjustment to EBITDA and are included in other expenses, net in the Reconciliation of Comprehensive Income to Adjusted EBITDA.

On June 26, 2023, the Company's management agreement for Lady Luck Casino Nemacolin ("Lady Luck") in Farmington, Pennsylvania expired and was not renewed. The Company completed the sale of substantially all its assets at Lady Luck for an immaterial amount.
We utilize the Adjusted EBITDA metric to provide a more accurate measure of our core operating results and enable management and investors to evaluate and compare from period to period our operating performance in a meaningful and consistent manner. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to operating income as an indicator of performance, as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity, or as an alternative to any other measure provided in accordance with GAAP. Our calculation of Adjusted EBITDA may be different from the calculation used by other companies and, therefore, comparability may be limited. For segment reporting, Adjusted EBITDA includes intercompany revenue and expense totals that are eliminated in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
This report contains various "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the "Act"), which provides certain "safe harbor" provisions for forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements made in this report are made pursuant to the Act. The reader is cautioned that such forward-looking statements are based on information available at the time and / or management’s good faith belief with respect to future events, and are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual performance or results to differ materially from those expressed in the statements. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date that the statement was made. We assume no obligation to update forward-looking information to reflect actual results, changes in assumptions or changes in other factors affecting forward-looking information. Forward-looking statements are typically identified by the use of terms such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “might,” “plan,” “predict,” “project,” “seek,” “should,” “will,” “scheduled”, and similar words or similar expressions (or negative versions of such words or expressions), although some forward-looking statements are expressed differently.
Although we believe that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, we can give no assurance that such expectations will prove to be correct. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from expectations include the following:
the occurrence of extraordinary events, such as terrorist attacks, public health threats, civil unrest, and inclement weather, including as a result of climate change;
the effect of economic conditions on our consumers' confidence and discretionary spending or our access to credit, including the impact of inflation;
additional or increased taxes and fees;
the impact of any pandemics, epidemics, or outbreaks of infectious diseases, including possible new variants of COVID-19, and related economic matters on our results of operations, financial conditions, and prospects;
lack of confidence in the integrity of our core businesses or any deterioration in our reputation;
loss of key or highly skilled personnel, as well as general disruptions in the general labor market;
the impact of significant competition, and the expectation that competition levels will increase;
changes in consumer preferences, attendance, wagering, and sponsorships;
risks associated with equity investments, strategic alliances, and other third-party agreements;
inability to respond to rapid technological changes in a timely manner;
concentration and evolution of slot machine and historical racing machine ("HRM") manufacturing and other technology conditions that could impose additional costs;
failure to enter into or maintain agreements with industry constituents, including horsemen and other racetracks:
inability to successfully focus on market access and retail operations for our TwinSpires sports betting business and effectively compete;
online security risk, including cyber-security breaches, or loss or misuse of our stored information as a result of a breach including customers’ personal information could lead to government enforcement actions or other litigation;
reliance on our technology services and catastrophic events and system failures disrupting our operations;
inability to identify, complete, or fully realize the benefits of, our proposed acquisitions, divestitures, development of new venues or the expansion of existing facilities on time, on budget, or as planned;
difficulty in integrating recent or future acquisitions into our operations;
cost overruns and other uncertainties associated with the development of new venues and the expansion of existing facilities;
general risks related to real estate ownership and significant expenditures, including risks related to environmental liabilities;
personal injury litigation related to injuries occurring at our racetracks;

risks related to pending or future legal proceedings and other actions;
highly regulated operations and changes in the regulatory environment could adversely affect our business;
restrictions in our debt facilities limiting our flexibility to operate our business;

Our Business
Churchill Downs Incorporated ("CDI" or the "Company") has been creating extraordinary entertainment experiences for nearly 150 years, beginning with the Company’s most iconic and enduring asset, the Kentucky Derby. Headquartered in Louisville, Kentucky, CDI has expanded through the development of live and historical racing entertainment venues, the growth of the TwinSpires horse racing online wagering business, expanded pari-mutuel content and technology services to B2C platforms, and the operation and development of regional casino gaming properties.
We conduct our business through three reportable segments: Live and Historical Racing, TwinSpires, and Gaming. We aggregate our other businesses as well as certain corporate operations, and other immaterial joint ventures, in All Other.
Key Indicators to Evaluate Business Results and Financial Condition
Our management monitors a variety of key indicators to evaluate our business results and financial condition. These indicators include changes in net revenue, operating expense, operating income, earnings per share, outstanding debt balance, operating cash flow, and capital spend.
Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). We also use non-GAAP measures, including EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) and Adjusted EBITDA. We believe that the use of Adjusted EBITDA as a key performance measure of results of operations enables management and investors to evaluate and compare from period to period our operating performance in a meaningful and consistent manner. Our chief operating decision maker utilizes Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate segment performance, develop strategy, and allocate resources. Adjusted EBITDA is a supplemental measure of our performance that is not required by, or presented in accordance with, GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income (as determined in accordance with GAAP) as a measure of our operating results.
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, adjusted for the following:
Adjusted EBITDA includes our portion of EBITDA from our equity investments.
Adjusted EBITDA excludes:
Transaction expense, net which includes:
Acquisition, disposition, and property sale related charges;
Other transaction expense, including legal, accounting and other deal-related expense;
Stock-based compensation expense;
Asset impairments;
Gain on property sales;
Legal reserves;
Pre-opening expense; and
Other charges, recoveries and expenses
As of December 31, 2021, our property in Arlington Heights, Illinois ("Arlington") ceased racing and simulcast operations and the property was sold on February 15, 2023 to the Chicago Bears. Arlington's results and exit costs in 2023 are treated as an adjustment to EBITDA and are included in other expenses, net in the Reconciliation of Comprehensive Income to Adjusted EBITDA.
On June 26, 2023, the Company's management agreement for Lady Luck Casino Nemacolin ("Lady Luck") in Farmington, Pennsylvania expired and was not renewed. The Company completed the sale of substantially all its assets at Lady Luck for an immaterial amount.
For segment reporting, Adjusted EBITDA includes intercompany revenue and expense totals that are eliminated in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. See the Reconciliation of Comprehensive Income to Adjusted EBITDA included in this section for additional information.

Governmental Regulations and Legislative Changes
We are subject to various federal, state, and international laws and regulations that affect our businesses. The ownership, operation, and management of our Live and Historical Racing, TwinSpires, and Gaming segments, as well as our other operations, are subject to regulation under the laws and regulations of each of the jurisdictions in which we operate. The ownership, operation, and management of our businesses and properties are also subject to legislative actions at both the federal and state level. The following update on our regulatory and legislative actions should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, including Part I - Item 1, "Business" for a discussion of regulatory and legislative changes.
Specific State Gaming Regulations
Louisiana
In Louisiana, the 2021 Historical Horse Racing Act (the "2021 HHR Act") allows off-track betting facilities ("OTBs") to have up to 50 HRMs. On October 25, 2022, a number of individual plaintiffs associated with video poker and truckstops, filed a lawsuit in the 19th Judicial District Court in East Baton Rouge, Louisiana against certain racetracks in Louisiana, including our Fair Grounds Racecourse and Slots property, alleging that the 2021 HHR Act is unconstitutional to the extent it purports to permit historical racing in a parish without a referendum. On June 8, 2023, plaintiffs filed a motion for summary judgment on the constitutional issues raised in their complaint and a hearing was conducted on September 11, 2023.
On February 23, 2024 the judge issued a ruling in favor of plaintiffs granting summary judgment stating that: (i) historical horseracing is a new form of gaming not specifically authorized by law prior to 1996; (ii) historical horseracing may not be conducted in any parish of the state unless voters approve it through referendum; and (iii) the 2021 HHR Act that authorized historical horseracing is unconstitutional. The summary judgment, which was certified as final for purposes of appeal, was entered on March 18, 2024, and the Company, along with other interested parties including the Louisiana Racing Commission, filed a joint motion for a suspensive appeal, which was entered on March 26, 2024. The suspensive appeal allows the continued operation of HHR during the pendency of the appeal before the Louisiana Supreme Court. The Company intends to vigorously defend the constitutionality of the HHR Act.
As of March 31, 2024, the Company had approximately 500 HRMs in OTBs in Louisiana. If the 2021 HHR Act is determined to be unconstitutional it could have an adverse impact on our Louisiana HRM results which are reported in our Gaming segment.

Adjusted EBITDA242.5222.919.6 
Three Months Ended March 31, 2024, Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2023
Net revenue increased $31.4 million driven by a $30.7 million increase from the Live and Historical Racing segment primarily due to the opening of our Rosie's Emporia property in September 2023 and growth at our other HRM properties and an $11.8 million increase from the TwinSpires segment primarily due the Exacta Transaction. Partially offsetting these increases was an $11.1 million decrease primarily from the Gaming segment driven by our decision not to renew the management agreement at Lady Luck in June 2023 and inclement weather in January 2024 across many of our Gaming properties.
Operating income increased $6.4 million due to a $16.8 million increase in the Live and Historical Racing segment primarily due to savings as a result of the Exacta Transaction, the opening of our Rosie's Emporia property in September 2023, and growth at our other HRM properties, a $9.6 million increase in the TwinSpires segment primarily due to the Exacta Transaction, and decreased All Other net operating expenses of $2.6 million primarily related to

Arlington exit costs in 2023. Partially offsetting these increases to operating income was a $15.8 million decrease in the Gaming segment primarily due to inclement weather at many of our Gaming properties in January 2024, a $4.3 million increase in transaction expenses, and a $2.5 million increase in selling, general and administrative expenses.
Net income decreased $75.3 million. The following impacted the comparability of the Company's net income for the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023: an $86.2 million after-tax gain on the sale of the Arlington property in the prior year quarter and a $4.4 million after-tax net increase in adjustments related to transaction, pre-opening and other expenses, partially offset by a $5.2 million after-tax increase of other recoveries, net related to non-recurring insurance claim recoveries. Excluding these items, net income increased $10.1 million primarily due to a $14.7 million after-tax increase primarily driven by the results of our operations, partially offset by a $4.6 million after-tax increase in interest expense associated with higher outstanding debt balances and higher interest rates.
Adjusted EBITDA increased $19.6 million driven by an $18.7 million increase from the Live and Historical Racing segment primarily due to $5.8 million of savings as a result of the Exacta Transaction and a $12.9 million increase due to the growth at our HRM properties and the opening of our Rosie's Emporia property in September 2023, and a $10.2 million increase from the TwinSpires segment primarily attributable to the Exacta Transaction. Partially offsetting these increases was a $6.7 million decrease from the Gaming segment primarily due to inclement weather in January 2024 at many of our Gaming properties and a decrease in All Other adjusted EBITDA of $2.6 million driven by increased corporate compensation expenses and administrative fees.

Increased gaming taxes and purses, salaries and benefits, selling, general and administrative, marketing and advertising, and depreciation and amortization increased primarily due to the Exacta Transaction in August 2023, the opening of our Rosie's Emporia property in late September 2023 and our Derby City Gaming Downtown property in December 2023, and added costs related to Terre Haute Casino in Indiana that opened on April 5, 2024 and The Rose HRM entertainment facility that is scheduled to open in late September 2024.
Adjusted EBITDA
We believe that the use of Adjusted EBITDA as a key performance measure of the results of operations enables management and investors to evaluate and compare from period to period our operating performance in a meaningful and consistent manner. Adjusted EBITDA is a supplemental measure of our performance that is not required by or presented in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to operating income as an indicator of performance, as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity, or as an alternative to any other measure provided in accordance with GAAP.

TwinSpires Adjusted EBITDA increased $10.2 million due to a $9.4 million increase attributable to the Exacta Transaction and a $1.4 million increase attributable to our retail and online sports betting business, partially offset by a $0.6 million decrease in Horse Racing primarily driven by lower retail volume.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
The following table is a summary of our liquidity and cash flows:

Financing activities(101.1)(237.7)136.6 
Three Months Ended March 31, 2024, Compared to the Three Months Ended March 31, 2023
Cash flows provided by operating activities increased $38.8 million driven primarily by a decrease in cash used for working capital, an increase in operating income, and decreased interest paid in 2024. We anticipate that cash flows from operations and availability of borrowings under our credit facility over the next twelve months will be adequate to fund our business operations and capital expenditures.
Cash flows used in investing activities increased $207.9 million driven by $195.7 million proceeds from the Arlington sale in 2023 and an increase in capital project expenditures in 2024 primarily at the Terre Haute Casino Resort, Churchill Downs Racetrack, and The Rose Gaming Resort in Dumfries, Virginia.
Cash flows used in financing activities decreased $136.6 million primarily driven by a net paydown of debt in the first quarter of 2023, partially offset by share repurchases in the first quarter of 2024.
We have announced several project capital investments, including the following: Churchill Downs Racetrack Paddock Project, Owensboro Racing & Gaming in Owensboro, Kentucky, a New Hampshire HRM facility, and The Rose Gaming Resort in Dumfries, Virginia. We currently expect our project capital to be approximately $450.0 to $550.0 million in 2024, although this amount may vary significantly based on the timing of work completed, unanticipated delays, and timing of payments to third parties.
Common Stock Repurchase Program
On September 29, 2021, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a common stock repurchase program of up to $500.0 million (the "2021 Stock Repurchase Program"). The 2021 Stock Repurchase Program includes and is not in addition to the unspent amount remaining under the prior authorization. Repurchases may be made at management’s discretion from time to time on the open market (either with or without a 10b5-1 plan) or through privately negotiated transactions. The repurchase program has no time limit and may be suspended or discontinued at any time. During the first quarter of 2024, we repurchased 184,821 shares of the Company's common stock under the 2021 Stock Repurchase Program for a total cost of $22.0 million. We had approximately $192.9 million of repurchase authority remaining under this program on March 31, 2024.
On January 2, 2024, the Company closed on an agreement, dated December 18, 2023, with an affiliate of The Duchossois Group ("TDG") to repurchase 1,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, for $123.75 per share in a privately negotiated transaction for an aggregate purchase price of $123.8 million. This represented a discount of 4.03% to the closing price on December 15, 2023 of $128.95. The repurchase of shares of common stock from TDG was approved by the Company's Board of Directors separately from and did not reduce the authorized amount remaining under the existing common stock repurchase program. The repurchase of the shares was funded using available cash and borrowings under the Company’s senior secured credit facility.

Credit Agreement
At March 31, 2024, the Company’s senior secured credit facility (as amended from time to time, the “Credit Agreement") consisted of a $1.2 billion revolving credit facility (the "Revolver"), $300.0 million senior secured term loan B-1 due 2028 (the "Term Loan B-1"), $1.3 billion senior secured term loan A due 2027 (the "Term Loan A"), and $100.0 million swing line commitment.
Term Loan B-1 bears interest at the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") plus 210 basis points and requires quarterly payments of 0.25% of the original $300.0 million balance. The Term Loan B-1 may be subject to additional mandatory prepayment from excess cash flow on an annual basis per the provisions of the Credit Agreement.
The Revolver and Term Loan A bear interest at SOFR plus 10 basis points, plus a variable applicable margin which is determined by the Company's net leverage ratio. As of March 31, 2024, that applicable margin was 150 basis points which was based on the pricing grid in the Credit Agreement. The Company had $841.9 million available borrowing capacity, after consideration of $5.1 million in outstanding letters of credit, under the Revolver as of March 31, 2024.
The Company is required to pay a commitment fee on the unused portion of the Revolver as determined by a pricing grid based on the consolidated total net secured leverage ratio of the Company. For the period ended March 31, 2024, the Company's commitment fee rate was 0.25%.
The estimated contractual payments, including interest, under the Credit Agreement for the next twelve months are estimated to be $198.5 million assuming no change in the weighted average borrowing rate of 7.01%, which was in place as of March 31, 2024. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, we had repayments of principal and interest on the Revolver of $136.2 million.
2027 Senior Notes
As of March 31, 2024, we had $600.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 5.500% senior unsecured notes that mature on April 1, 2027 (the "2027 Senior Notes"). The 2027 Senior Notes were issued at par in a private offering to qualified institutional buyers, with interest payable in arrears on April 1st and October 1st of each year, commencing on October 1st, 2019. The Company may redeem some or all of the 2027 Senior Notes at redemption prices set forth in the 2027 Indenture.
2028 Senior Notes
As of March 31, 2024, we had a total of $700.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 4.750% senior unsecured notes (the “2028 Senior Notes”) maturing on January 15, 2028. The 2028 Senior Notes consist of $500.0 million notes issued at par and $200.0 million notes issued at 103.25%. The 2028 Senior Notes were issued in a private offering to qualified institutional buyers, with interest payable in arrears on January 15th and July 15th of each year, commencing on July 15th, 2018. The 3.25% premium is being amortized through interest expense, net over the term of the notes. The Company may redeem some or all the 2028 Senior Notes at redemption prices set forth in the 2028 Indenture.

The 2030 Senior Notes were issued at par in a private offering to qualified institutional buyers, with interest payable in arrears on April 1st and October 1st of each year, commencing on October 1st, 2022.

As of March 31, 2024, we had $600.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 6.750% senior unsecured notes that mature on April 25, 2031 (the "2031 Senior Notes"). The 2031 Senior Notes were issued at par in a private offering to qualified institutional buyers, with interest payable in arrears on May 1st and November 1st of each year, commencing on November 1st, 2023. The Company may redeem some or all of the 2031 Notes at any time prior to April 25, 2025, at redemption prices set forth in the 2031 Offering Memorandum.
Leases
The Company leases certain real estate and other property. Most of our building and land leases have terms of 2 to 10 years and include one or more options to renew, with renewal terms that can extend the lease term from 1 to 5 years or more. Certain of our lease agreements include lease payments based on a percentage of net gaming revenue and others include rental payment adjustments periodically for inflation. As of March 31, 2024, minimum rent payable under operating leases was $24.4 million, with $5.9 million due in the next twelve months. As of March 31, 2024, minimum rent payable accounted for as financing obligations was $58.7 million, with $4.9 million due in the next twelve months.
Other Contractual Obligations
The Company has other contractual obligations that consist primarily of minimum guarantees with commitments of $14.0 million, $1.5 million of which is due within the next twelve months.
ITEM 3.    QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We are exposed to market risks arising from adverse changes in:
general economic trends; and
interest rate and credit risk.
General economic trends
Our business is sensitive to consumer confidence and reductions in consumers' discretionary spending, which may result from challenging economic conditions, inflation, unemployment levels and other changes in the economy. Demand for entertainment and leisure activities is sensitive to consumers’ disposable incomes, which can be adversely affected by economic conditions and unemployment levels. This could result in fewer patrons visiting our racetracks, HRM entertainment venues, online wagering sites, and gaming facilities, and/or may impact our customers’ ability to wager with the same frequency and to maintain wagering levels.
Interest rate and credit risk
Our primary exposure to market risk relates to changes in interest rates. On March 31, 2024, we had $1.9 billion outstanding under our Credit Agreement, which bears interest at SOFR based variable rates. We are exposed to market risk on variable rate debt due to potential adverse changes in these rates. Assuming the outstanding balance of the debt facility remains constant, a one-percentage point increase in the SOFR rate would reduce net income and cash flows from operating activities by $13.7 million.
ITEM 4.    CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports that we file under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
As required by the Securities and Exchange Commission Rule 13a-15(e), we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the
FORM 10-Q FOR THE QUARTERLY PERIOD ENDED MARCH 31, 2024
32


effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2024. Based upon the foregoing, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There has been no change in our internal controls over financial reporting during our most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. Our process for evaluating controls and procedures is continuous and encompasses constant improvement of the design and effectiveness of established controls and procedures.
