Note 1. Organization and Description of Business
Organization
The Company is a geographically diversified gaming and hospitality company that was founded in 1973 by the Carano family with the opening of the Eldorado Hotel Casino in Reno, Nevada. Beginning in 2005, the Company grew through a series of acquisitions, including the acquisition of MTR Gaming Group, Inc. in 2014, Isle of Capri Casinos, Inc. in 2017, Tropicana Entertainment, Inc. in 2018, Caesars Entertainment Corporation in 2020 and William Hill PLC on April 22, 2021. The Company’s ticker symbol on the NASDAQ Stock Market is “CZR.”
Description of Business
The Company owns, leases, brands or manages an aggregate of 53 domestic properties in 18 states with approximately 52,500 slot machines, video lottery terminals and e-tables, approximately 2,700 table games and approximately 46,900 hotel rooms as of September 30, 2023. The Company operates and conducts sports wagering across 30 jurisdictions in North America, 24 of which offer mobile sports betting, and operates regulated online real money gaming businesses in six jurisdictions in North America. In addition, we have other domestic and international properties that are authorized to use the brands and marks of Caesars Entertainment, Inc., as well as other non-gaming properties. The Company’s primary source of revenue is generated by our casino properties’ gaming operations, retail and online sports betting, online gaming, and the Company utilizes its hotels, restaurants, bars, entertainment, racing, retail shops and other services to attract customers to its properties.
The Company’s operations for retail and mobile sports betting, online casino, and online poker are included under the Caesars Digital segment. As part of the Caesars Digital segment, the Company has made significant investments into the interactive business in recent years, including the acquisition of William Hill PLC and strategic expansions into new markets as legalization permits. The Company has utilized significant marketing campaigns with distinguished actors, athletes and media personalities promoting the Caesars Sportsbook app. The Company expects to continue to expand its operations in the Caesars Digital segment as new jurisdictions legalize retail and online gaming and sports betting.
Divestitures
We periodically divest of assets in order to raise capital, as a result of a determination that the assets are not core to our business, or due to regulatory requirements. A summary of recently completed divestitures of our properties as of September 30, 2023 is as follows:

Note 2. Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited Financial Statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information with the instructions for Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited Financial Statements contain all adjustments, all of which are normal and recurring, considered necessary for a fair presentation. The results of operations for these interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for other quarters, for the full year or any future period. Additionally, certain reclassifications of prior year presentations have been made to conform to the current period presentation.
The presentation of financial information herein for the periods before the Company’s divestitures of various properties is not fully comparable to the periods after the sale dates.
Consolidation of Subsidiaries and Variable Interest Entities
Our Financial Statements include the accounts of Caesars Entertainment, Inc. and its subsidiaries after elimination of all intercompany accounts and transactions.
We consolidate all subsidiaries in which we have a controlling financial interest and variable interest entities (“VIEs”) for which we or one of our consolidated subsidiaries is the primary beneficiary. Control generally equates to ownership percentage, whereby (i) affiliates that are more than 50% owned are consolidated; (ii) investments in affiliates of 50% or less but greater than 20% are generally accounted for using the equity method where we have determined that we have significant influence over the entities; and (iii) investments in affiliates of 20% or less are generally accounted for as investments in equity securities.
We consider ourselves the primary beneficiary of a VIE when we have both the power to direct the activities that most significantly affect the results of the VIE and the right to receive benefits or the obligation to absorb losses of the entity that could be potentially significant to the VIE. We review investments for VIE consideration if a reconsideration event occurs to determine if the investment qualifies, or continues to qualify, as a VIE. If we determine an investment qualifies, or no longer qualifies, as a VIE, there may be a material effect to our Financial Statements.
Transactions with Horseshoe Baltimore
On July 10, 2023, we completed the acquisition of the remaining 24.2% equity ownership in Horseshoe Baltimore, utilizing cash on hand, for a total of $66 million.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash equivalents include highly-liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less at the date of purchase including investments in money market funds that can be redeemed immediately at the current net asset value per share. A money market fund is a mutual fund whose investments are primarily in short-term debt securities designed to maximize current income with liquidity and capital preservation, usually maintaining per share net asset value at a constant amount, such as one dollar. Cash and cash equivalents also include cash maintained for gaming operations. The carrying amounts approximate the fair value because of the short maturity of those instruments (Level 1).
Restricted Cash
Restricted cash includes certificates of deposit and similar instruments that are subject to remeasurement on a recurring basis, as well as cash deposits which are restricted under certain operating agreements, regulatory requirement, or for future capital expenditures in the normal course of business.
CAESARS ENTERTAINMENT, INC.

Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Advertising
Advertising costs are expensed in the period the advertising first occurs. Advertising costs for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 were $65 million and $114 million, respectively, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 totaled $185 million and $490 million, respectively, and are included within operating expenses. Advertising costs for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 included significant television, radio and internet marketing campaigns promoting our Caesars Sportsbook. Advertising costs related to the Caesars Digital segment are primarily recorded in Casino expense.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
Pronouncements to Be Implemented in Future Periods
In October 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2023-06 Disclosure Improvements: Codification Amendments In Response to the SEC’s Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative to clarify or improve disclosure and presentation requirements on a variety of topics and align the requirements in the FASB accounting standard codification with the Securities and Exchange Commission regulations. This guidance is effective for the Company no later than June 30, 2027. We do not expect the amendments in this update to have a material impact on our Financial Statements.
Note 3. Investments in and Advances to Unconsolidated Affiliates
Pompano Joint Venture
In April 2018, the Company entered into a joint venture with Cordish Companies (“Cordish”) to plan and develop a mixed-use entertainment and hospitality destination expected to be located on unused land adjacent to the casino at the Company’s Pompano property. As the managing member, Cordish will operate the business and manage the development, construction, financing, marketing, leasing, maintenance and day-to-day operation of the various phases of the project. Additionally, Cordish will be responsible for the development of the master plan for the project with the Company’s input and will submit it for the Company’s review and approval.
While the Company holds a 50% variable interest in the joint venture, it is not the primary beneficiary; as such, the investment in the joint venture is accounted for using the equity method. The Company participates evenly with Cordish in the profits and losses of the joint venture, which are included in Transaction and other costs, net on the Statements of Operations. As of both September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company’s investment in the joint venture was $80 million and is recorded in Investments in and advances to unconsolidated affiliates on the Balance Sheets. The Company has no further obligation to contribute additional real estate or cash as of September 30, 2023.
NeoGames
The Company held an investment in NeoGames S.A., a global leader of iLottery solutions and services to national and state-regulated lotteries, and other investments. On March 14, 2022, the Company sold its investment at fair value for $26 million and recorded a loss of $34 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2022, which is included within Other income (loss) on the Statements of Operations.

Note 5. Goodwill and Intangible Assets, net
The purchase price of an acquisition is allocated to the underlying assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon their estimated fair values at the date of acquisition. The Company determines the estimated fair values after review and consideration of relevant information including discounted cash flows, quoted market prices and estimates made by management. To the extent the purchase price exceeds the fair value of the net identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, such excess is recorded as goodwill.

Marketable Securities 
Marketable securities consist primarily of trading securities held by the Company’s captive insurance subsidiary and deferred compensation plans. The estimated fair values of the Company’s marketable securities are determined on an individual asset basis based upon quoted prices of identical assets available in active markets (Level 1), quoted prices of identical assets in inactive markets, or quoted prices for similar assets in active and inactive markets (Level 2), and represent the amounts the Company would expect to receive if the Company sold these marketable securities.
Restricted Cash
The estimated fair values of the Company’s restricted cash are based upon quoted prices available in active markets (Level 1) or quoted prices for similar assets in active and inactive markets (Level 2) and represent the amounts the Company would expect to receive if the Company sold the instruments classified as restricted cash. Restricted cash classified as Level 1 includes cash equivalents held in short-term certificate of deposit accounts or money market type funds.
