The following items impacted the comparability of the Company’s fourth quarter net income from continuing operations:

  • $10.4 million tax benefit from the CARES Act related to our 2020 net operating loss that the Company will use to offset prior income taxed at 35%;
  • $7.5 million after-tax expense for the accelerated amortization of the purchase and sale agreement rights related to Turfway Park in 2019 that did not occur in 2020;
  • $3.7 million non-cash tax decrease from the prior year quarter related to the re-measurement of our net deferred tax liabilities based on the impact of revenue related to states with higher tax rates;
  • $0.4 million after-tax reduction in transaction, pre-opening, and other expenses from the prior year quarter; and
  • Partially offset by $1.0 million after-tax decrease from the prior year quarter related to our equity portion of the non-cash change in fair value of Midwest Gaming’s interest rate swaps.

Excluding these items, fourth quarter 2020 net income from continuing operations decreased $8.8 million primarily due to the following:

  • $8.3 million after-tax decrease from the prior year quarter driven by the results of our operations and equity income from our unconsolidated affiliates: and
  • $0.5 million after-tax increase from the prior year quarter in interest expense associated with higher outstanding debt balances.

The Company’s fourth quarter 2020 net income from discontinued operations increased by $1.2 million compared to the prior year quarter due to reversal of legal accruals.

  • Adjusted EBITDA decreased by $99.4 million from the prior year due to a $101.0 million decrease at Churchill Downs Racetrack primarily due to lower net revenue, partially offset by a $1.6 million increase from Derby City Gaming due to increased operating efficiencies which more than offset the impact of the temporary closure of the property and ongoing capacity restrictions.

Use of Non-GAAP Measures

In addition to the results provided in accordance with GAAP, the Company also uses non-GAAP measures, including adjusted net income, adjusted diluted EPS, EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) and Adjusted EBITDA.

Advertisement

The Company uses non-GAAP measures as a key performance measure of the results of operations for purposes of evaluating performance internally. These measures facilitate comparison of operating performance between periods and help investors to better understand the operating results of the Company by excluding certain items that may not be indicative of the Company’s core business or operating results. The Company believes the use of these measures enables management and investors to evaluate and compare, from period to period, the Company’s operating performance in a meaningful and consistent manner. The non-GAAP measures are a supplemental measure of our performance that is not required by, or presented in accordance with, GAAP, and should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income or diluted EPS (as determined in accordance with GAAP) as a measure of our operating results.

We use Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate segment performance, develop strategy and allocate resources. 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.

Adjusted net income and adjusted diluted EPS exclude discontinued operations net income or loss; net income or loss attributable to noncontrolling interest; changes in fair value for interest rate swaps related to Midwest Gaming; recapitalization costs related to the Midwest Gaming transaction; transaction expense, which includes acquisition and disposition related charges, Calder racing exit costs, as well as legal, accounting, and other deal-related expense; pre-opening expense; and certain other gains, charges, recoveries, and expenses.

Adjusted EBITDA includes the Company’s portion of EBITDA from our equity investments.

Adjusted EBITDA excludes:

Advertisement
  • Transaction expense, net which includes:
    • Acquisition and disposition related charges, including fair value adjustments related to earnouts and deferred payments,
    • Calder racing exit costs, and
    • Other transaction expense, including legal, accounting, and other deal-related expense.
  • Stock-based compensation expense,
  • Midwest Gaming’s impact on our investments in unconsolidated affiliates from:
    • The impact of changes in fair value of interest rate swaps and
    • Recapitalization and transaction costs.
  • Asset impairments,
  • Gain on Ocean Downs/Saratoga Transaction,
  • Loss on extinguishment of debt,
  • Legal reserves,
  • Pre-opening expense, and
  • Other charges, recoveries and expenses
