Peter Carlino, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of GLPI, commented, “The merits of our strategy to work with the industry’s leading operators and support their current and future initiatives, while expanding and diversifying our tenant roster in an accretive manner, was evident again in our record third quarter results. On an operating basis, third quarter total revenue rose 7.7% year over year to $359.6 million and AFFO grew 6.9% on a comparable basis. Our third quarter and year-to-date financial growth reflects GLPI’s stable base of gaming operator tenants and benefited from ten properties added in 2022 and in the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023, which we expect will continue to benefit comparisons in the balance of 2023 and beyond. With our opportunistic approach to portfolio expansion, the proven long-term resiliency of our tenants’ revenue streams, and comfortable rent coverage ratios across our portfolio, we expect to continue to deliver strong capital returns and yields for our shareholders which is highlighted by our third quarter 2023 dividend of $0.73 per share, up from $0.705 per share in the year-ago period.
“Our pipeline of growth opportunities remains robust and in the third quarter we expanded our footprint with the acquisition of the land associated with the Hard Rock Casino development project in Rockford, IL for $100 million and entered into a 99-year ground lease with 815 Entertainment with initial annual rent of $8 million. The strong initial results at 815 Entertainment’s temporary facility demonstrate the attractiveness of the property’s location and the depth of the market. Hard Rock is the property manager of and an equity investor in 815 Entertainment, bringing its world-class management team to the project and we expect that the world-renowned Hard Rock brand would support and solidify the new casino’s position as a tourist destination and entertainment venue. The overall transaction structure reflects our creativity in crafting a comprehensive construction financing solution.
“We further expanded our footprint through the acquisition of the land and certain improvements at Casino Queen Marquette for $32.72 million resulting in an annual rent increase on the Casino Queen Master Lease of $2.7 million. We continue to believe there are near- and longer-term cases for GLPI to further support tenants with innovative financing, capital and development structures in an accretive, prudent manner. This operating strategy has driven stable, visible growth of our rental cash flows and AFFO for ten years, enabling GLPI to consistently increase capital returns to shareholders.
“After undergoing an $85 million transformation, The Queen Baton Rouge, formerly known as Hollywood Casino Baton Rouge, opened to the public on August 24, marking Louisiana’s freshest casino gaming, sports wagering, entertainment, and dining location. The rebranded and completely new property, now situated on dry land near downtown along the Mississippi River, is poised to become a premier dining and entertainment destination, boasting an expanded footprint of over 100,000 square feet. Rent under the Casino Queen Master Lease was adjusted to reflect a yield of 8.25% on GLPI’s project costs of $77 million.
“We remain excited about the agreement we entered into earlier this year with our tenant Bally’s and Major League Baseball’s Oakland Athletics, to develop an integrated casino within a new 30,000-seat Las Vegas stadium for the team at our 35-acre Tropicana site. GLPI intends to commit to up to $175 million of funding for construction costs and may have the opportunity to provide additional construction financing under certain circumstances. In June, the Nevada legislature approved public funding for the A’s Las Vegas stadium paving the way for the stadium project at the site and the ultimate re-development of the Tropicana Las Vegas. The letter of intent provides that the transaction will be subject to customary approvals and other conditions, including the approval of the MLB owners to relocate the team on or before December 1, 2023, and certain approvals by the Nevada Gaming Control Board and Nevada Gaming Commission.
“With recent portfolio additions and completed transactions combined with contractual rent escalators, we see continued financial growth in the balance of 2023 and beyond. Our disciplined capital investment approach, combined with our focus on stable and resilient regional gaming markets, supports our confidence that the Company is well positioned to further grow our cash dividend and drive long-term shareholder value.”
Recent Developments
- On September 6, 2023, the Company acquired the land and certain improvements at Casino Queen Marquette for $32.72 million. The annual rent on the Casino Queen Master Lease was increased by $2.7 million for this acquisition. Additionally, the Company anticipates funding up to $12.5 million of certain construction costs of a landside development project at Casino Queen Marquette that is expected to be completed by December 31, 2024.
- In September 2023, the Company sold 4.4 million shares through a sales agent in at the market offerings which raised net proceeds of $210.8 million.
- On August 29, 2023, the Company acquired the land associated with the Hard Rock Casino development project in Rockford, IL from an affiliate of 815 Entertainment, LLC (together, “815 Entertainment”) for $100 million. Simultaneously with the land acquisition, GLPI entered into a ground lease with 815 Entertainment for a 99- year term. The initial annual rent for the ground lease is $8 million, subject to fixed 2% annual escalation beginning with the lease’s first anniversary and for the entirety of its term. (the “Rockford Lease”)
- In addition to the Rockford Lease, GLPI has also committed to providing up to $150 million of development funding (of which $40 million was funded as of September 30, 2023) via a senior secured delayed draw term loan (the “Rockford Loan”). Any borrowings under the Rockford Loan will be subject to an interest rate of 10%. The Rockford Loan has a draw period of up to one year and a maximum outstanding period of up to six years (five-year initial term with a one-year extension). The Rockford Loan is prepayable without penalty following the opening of the Hard Rock Casino in Rockford, IL, which is expected in September 2024. The Rockford Loan advances are subject to typical construction lending terms and conditions. The Company also received a right of first refusal on the building improvements of the Hard Rock Casino in Rockford, IL if there is a future decision to sell them once completed.
- On August 24, 2023, the Company’s landside development project at Casino Queen Baton Rouge opened to the public. Rent under the Casino Queen Master Lease was adjusted to reflect a yield of 8.25% on GLPI’s project costs of $77 million.
- On May 13, 2023, the Company, Tropicana Las Vegas, Inc., a Nevada corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Bally’s Corporation (NYSE: BALY) (“Bally’s”), and Athletics Holdings LLC (“Athletics”), which owns the Major League Baseball (“MLB”) team currently known as the Oakland Athletics (the “Team”), entered into a binding letter of intent (the “LOI”) setting forth the terms for developing a stadium that would serve as the home venue for the Team (the “Stadium”). The Stadium is expected to complement the potential resort redevelopment envisioned at our 35-acre property in Clark County, Nevada (the “Tropicana Site”), owned indirectly by GLPI through its indirect subsidiary Tropicana Land LLC, a Nevada limited liability company, and leased by GLPI to Bally’s pursuant to that certain Ground Lease dated as of September 26, 2022 (the “Original Ground Lease”). The LOI allows for Athletics to be granted fee ownership by GLPI of approximately 9 acres of the Tropicana Site for construction of the Stadium. The LOI provides that following the Stadium site transfer, there will be no reduction in the rent obligations of Bally’s on the remaining portion of the Tropicana Site or other modifications to the Original Ground Lease, and that to the extent GLPI has any consent or approval rights under the Original Ground Lease, such rights shall remain enforceable unless expressly modified in writing in the definitive documents. Bally’s and GLPI are agreeing to provide the Stadium site transfer in exchange for the benefits that the Stadium is expected to bring to the Tropicana Site. The LOI provides that the Athletics shall pay all the costs associated with the design, development, and construction of the Stadium and Bally’s shall pay all costs for the redevelopment of the casino and hotel resort amenities. GLPI is expected to commit to up to $175 million of funding for hard construction costs, such as demolition and site preparation and build out of minimum public spaces needed for utilization of the Stadium (including, without limitation, a food, beverage and retail entrance plaza and structured parking). The LOI provides that during the development period, rent will be due at 8.5% of what has been funded, provided that the first $15.0 million advanced for the costs of construction of the food, beverage and retail entrance plaza shall not be subject to increased rent. GLPI may have the opportunity to fund additional amounts of the construction under certain circumstances. In addition, the LOI provides that the transaction will be subject to customary approvals and other conditions, including, without limitation, the approval of the MLB owners to relocate the Team on or before December 1, 2023, and certain approvals by the Nevada Gaming Control Board and Nevada Gaming Commission.
- On January 13, 2023, the Company called for redemption of all of its $500 million, 5.375% Senior Notes (the “Notes”) due in 2023. GLPI redeemed all of the Notes on February 12, 2023 (the “Redemption Date”) for $507.5 million which represented 100% of the principal amount of the Notes plus accrued interest through the Redemption Date. GLPI funded the redemption of the Notes primarily from cash on hand as well as through the settlement of the Company’s forward sale agreement which resulted in net proceeds of $64.6 million through the issuance of 1,284,556 shares.
- On January 3, 2023, the Company completed its previously announced acquisition from Bally’s of the real property assets of Bally’s Tiverton and Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Biloxi for total consideration of $635 million, inclusive of approximately $15 million in the form of OP units. These properties were added to the Company’s existing Master Lease with Bally’s. The initial rent for the lease was increased by $48.5 million on an annualized basis, subject to contractual escalations based on the Consumer Price Index (“CPI”), with a 1% floor and a 2% ceiling, subject to CPI meeting a 0.5% threshold.
In connection with the closing, a $200 million deposit funded by GLPI in September 2022 was returned to the Company along with a $9.0 million transaction fee that was accounted for as a reduction of the purchase price of the assets acquired with no earnings impact. Concurrent with the closing, GLPI borrowed $600 million under its previously structured delayed draw term loan.
GLPI continues to have the option, subject to receipt by Bally’s of required consents to acquire the real property assets of Bally’s Twin River Lincoln Casino Resort in Lincoln, RI prior to December 31, 2026, for a purchase price of $771 million which, if consummated, would result in additional initial rent of $58.8 million.
- Effective January 1, 2023, the Company completed the creation of a new master lease (the “PENN 2023 Master Lease”) with PENN Entertainment, Inc. (NASDAQ: PENN) (“PENN”) for seven of PENN’s current properties. The Company and PENN also agreed to a funding mechanism to support PENN’s relocation and development opportunities at several properties included in the PENN 2023 Master Lease.
The original PENN Master Lease was amended (the “Amended PENN Master Lease”) to remove PENN’s properties in Aurora and Joliet, Illinois, Columbus and Toledo, Ohio, and Henderson, Nevada. Those properties were added to the PENN 2023 Master Lease. In addition, the existing leases for the Hollywood Casino at The Meadows in Pennsylvania and Hollywood Casino Perryville in Maryland were terminated and these properties were transferred to the PENN 2023 Master Lease. GLPI agreed to fund up to $225 million for the relocation of PENN’s riverboat casino in Aurora at a 7.75% cap rate. GLPI also agreed to fund, at PENN’s election, up to an additional $350 million for the relocation of Hollywood Casino Joliet as well as the construction of a hotel at Hollywood Casino Columbus and a second hotel tower at the M Resort Spa Casino in Henderson, Nevada, at the then current market rates.
The terms of the PENN 2023 Master Lease and the Amended PENN Master Lease are substantially similar to the original PENN Master Lease with the following key differences;
- The PENN 2023 Master Lease is cross-defaulted and co-terminus with the Amended PENN Master Lease;
- The annual rent for the PENN 2023 Master Lease is $232.2 million in base rent which is fixed with annual escalation of 1.50%, with the first escalation occurring for the lease year beginning on November 1, 2023; and,
- The annual rent for the Amended PENN Master Lease is $284.1 million, consisting of $208.2 million of building base rent, $43.0 million of land base rent, and $32.9 million of percentage rent.
Dividends
On August 30, 2023, the Company’s Board of Directors declared the third quarter dividend of $0.73 per share on the Company’s common stock. The dividend was paid on September 29, 2023 to shareholders of record on September 15, 2023. The third quarter 2022 dividend was $0.705 per share on the Company’s common stock.
2023 Guidance
Reflecting the current operating and competitive environment, the Company is updating its AFFO guidance for the full year 2023 based on the following assumptions and other factors:
- The guidance does not include the impact on operating results from any pending or possible future acquisitions or dispositions, future capital markets activity, or other future non-recurring transactions.
- The guidance assumes there will be no material changes in applicable legislation, regulatory environment, world events, including a new pandemic outbreak, weather, recent consumer trends, economic conditions, oil prices, competitive landscape or other circumstances beyond our control that may adversely affect the Company’s results of operations.
- We anticipate that annual percentage rent will decline by approximately $5.0 million to $6.0 million and annual building base rent will increase by $4.2 million on the Amended Penn Master Lease effective November 1, 2023, resulting in an overall reduction to the Company’s 2023 rental income of between $0.1 million and $0.3 million.
The Company estimates AFFO for the year ending December 31, 2023 will be between $1,003 million and $1,006 million, or between $3.68 and $3.69 per diluted share and OP units. GLPI’s prior guidance contemplated AFFO for the year ending December 31, 2023 of between $994 million and $999 million, or between $3.66 and $3.68 per diluted share and OP units.
The Company does not provide a reconciliation for non-GAAP estimates on a forward-looking basis, including the information above, where it is unable to provide a meaningful or accurate calculation or estimation of reconciling items and the information is not available without unreasonable effort. This is due to the inherent difficulty of forecasting the timing and/or amounts of various items that would impact net income, which is the most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP financial measure. This includes, for example, provision for credit losses, net, acquisition costs and other non-core items that have not yet occurred, are out of the Company’s control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted. For the same reasons, the Company is unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information. In particular, the Company is unable to predict with reasonable certainty the amount of the change in the provision for credit losses, net, under ASU No. 2016-13 – Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (“ASC 326”) in future periods. The non-cash change in the provision for credit losses under ASC 326 with respect to future periods is dependent upon future events that are entirely outside of the Company’s control and may not be reliably predicted, including the performance and future outlook of our tenant’s operations for our leases that are accounted for as investment in leases, financing receivables, as well as broader macroeconomic factors and future predictions of such factors. As a result, forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures provided without the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures may vary materially from the corresponding GAAP financial measures.
Portfolio Update
GLPI’s primary business consists of acquiring, financing, and owning real estate property to be leased to gaming operators in triple-net lease arrangements.

Disclosure Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures
FFO, FFO per diluted common share and OP units, AFFO, AFFO per diluted common share and OP units, Adjusted EBITDA and Cash Net Operating Income (“Cash NOI”), which are detailed in the reconciliation tables that accompany this release, are used by the Company as performance measures for benchmarking against the Company’s peers and as internal measures of business operating performance, which is used for a bonus metric. These metrics are presented assuming full conversion of limited partnership units to common shares and therefore before the income statement impact of non-controlling interests. The Company believes FFO, FFO per diluted common share and OP units, AFFO, AFFO per diluted common share and OP units, Adjusted EBITDA and Cash NOI provide a meaningful perspective of the underlying operating performance of the Company’s current business. This is especially true since these measures exclude real estate depreciation and we believe that real estate values fluctuate based on market conditions rather than depreciating in value ratably on a straight-line basis over time. Cash NOI is rental and other property income, less cash property level expenses. Cash NOI excludes depreciation, the amortization of land rights, real estate general and administrative expenses, other non-routine costs and the impact of certain generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) adjustments to rental revenue, such as straight-line rent adjustments and non-cash ground lease income and expense. It is management’s view that Cash NOI is a performance measure used to evaluate the operating performance of the Company’s real estate operations and provides investors relevant and useful information because it reflects only income and operating expense items that are incurred at the property level and presents them on an unleveraged basis.
FFO, FFO per diluted common share and OP units, AFFO, AFFO per diluted common share and OP units, Adjusted EBITDA and Cash NOI are non-GAAP financial measures that are considered supplemental measures for the real estate industry and a supplement to GAAP measures. NAREIT defines FFO as net income (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding (gains) or losses from dispositions of property, net of tax and real estate depreciation. We have defined AFFO as FFO excluding, as applicable to the particular period, stock based compensation expense, the amortization of debt issuance costs, bond premiums and original issuance discounts, other depreciation, the amortization of land rights, accretion on investment in leases, financing receivables, non-cash adjustments to financing lease liabilities, property transfer tax recoveries, impairment charges, straight-line rent adjustments, losses on debt extinguishment, and provision (benefit) for credit losses, net, reduced by capital maintenance expenditures. We have defined Adjusted EBITDA as net income excluding, as applicable to the particular period, interest, net, income tax expense, real estate depreciation, other depreciation, (gains) or losses from dispositions of property, net of tax, stock based compensation expense, straight-line rent adjustments, the amortization of land rights, accretion on investment in leases, financing receivables, non-cash adjustments to financing lease liabilities, property transfer tax recoveries, impairment charges, losses on debt extinguishment, and provision (benefit) for credit losses, net. Finally, we have defined Cash NOI as Adjusted EBITDA excluding general and administrative expenses and including, as applicable to the particular period, stock based compensation expense and (gains) or losses from dispositions of property.
FFO, FFO per diluted common share and OP units, AFFO, AFFO per diluted common share and OP units, Adjusted EBITDA and Cash NOI are not recognized terms under GAAP.

![gaming-and-leisure-properties-enters-into-sale-leaseback-and-development-funding-transactions-with-bally’s-corporation-totaling-$1585-billion-at-blended-8.3%-initial-cash-yield](https://recentslotreleases.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/138170-gaming-and-leisure-properties-enters-into-sale-leaseback-and-development-funding-transactions-with-ballys-corporation-totaling-1585-billion-at-blended-8-3-initial-cash-yield.jpg)
Multi-Faceted Transaction Further Expands and Diversifies GLPI’s Industry-Leading Regional Property Portfolio; Provides Bally’s with Financing for its Highly-Anticipated Flagship Chicago Casino Facility
WYOMISSING, Pa., July 12, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Gaming and Leisure Properties, Inc. (NASDAQ:GLPI) (“GLPI” or “the Company”), announced today that it has entered into a binding term sheet with Bally’s Corporation (NYSE: BALY) (“Bally’s”) pursuant to which the Company intends to acquire the real property assets of Bally’s Kansas City Casino (“Bally’s Kansas City”) and Bally’s Shreveport Casino & Hotel (“Bally’s Shreveport”) as well as the land under Bally’s permanent Chicago casino, and provide construction financing for the Bally’s Chicago Casino Resort (“Bally’s Chicago”) for aggregate consideration of approximately $1.585 billion representing a blended 8.3% initial cash yield. In addition, GLPI secured adjustments to improve the purchase price and related cap rate related to the existing, previously announced, contingent purchase option for Bally’s Lincoln Casino Resort (“Bally’s Lincoln”), as well as the addition of a right for GLPI to call the asset beginning on October 1, 2026.
$1.19 Billion Chicago Flagship Casino Development Investment
GLPI intends to fund construction hard costs of up to $940 million at an 8.5% initial cash yield with the remainder to be funded by Bally’s with the sale leaseback proceeds related to Bally’s Kansas City and Bally’s Shreveport along with other funding sources such as Bally’s Chicago’s planned initial public offering and cash flows from operations. Funding is expected to occur from August 2024 through December 2026. GLPI will own all funded improvements, which will be leased to Bally’s with rent commencing at a rate of 8.5% as advances are made. The total project’s costs are currently expected to be approximately $1.8 billion, inclusive of construction, land, and rent.
In addition to the development funding of hard costs, GLPI also intends to acquire the Chicago land for approximately $250 million before development begins. Upon GLPI’s purchase of the Chicago land, rent will commence under a new lease carrying a 15-year initial term with an initial cash yield of 8.0%. The new lease will be cross-defaulted with the construction development funding agreement. Upon completion of the improvements and acquisition of the land, GLPI will own substantially all of the real estate land and improvements related to the Chicago casino and hotel for a total investment of $1.19 billion and blended initial cash investment yield of 8.4%. Upon stabilization of the property’s operations, the rent coverage for the lease is expected to be in the range of 2.0x – 2.4x.
$395 Million Kansas City and Shreveport Sale Leaseback Investment
GLPI will purchase the real property assets of both Bally’s Kansas City and Bally’s Shreveport for total consideration of $395 million. The two properties will be in a new Bally’s Master Lease that will be cross-defaulted with the existing Bally’s Master Lease with initial cash rent pursuant to the agreement for the two new properties of $32.2 million, representing an 8.2% initial cash capitalization rate. Total rent coverage on the Kansas City and Shreveport assets is expected to be 2.2x in the initial year post acquisition. The Company expects to close on the proposed Bally’s Kansas City and Bally’s Shreveport sale leaseback transactions as early as Q4 2024 subject to customary regulatory and other approvals.
In total, the Chicago, Kansas City, and Shreveport transactions represent a blended 8.3% yield and are expected to be funded on a staggered basis with cash on hand, retained operational cash flow, availability on GLPI’s revolving credit facility, and proceeds from potential capital markets activity.
The transactions are subject to several conditions as well as certain third-party consents and regulatory approvals. Key conditions include but are not limited to: (a) valid assignment of the current ground lease to GLPI or acquisition by GLPI of the fee interest in Chicago; (b) the final structure and pro forma capitalization of Bally’s following the proposed Standard General acquisition, or similar transaction, in the event any agreement is reached with the board of directors of Bally’s; (c) completion of customary due diligence on the Chicago site; and (d) receipt of all necessary gaming regulatory and other third party approvals.
Adjustments to Improve Bally’s Lincoln Purchase Option
GLPI and Bally’s have further agreed to adjust GLPI’s existing contingent purchase option for Bally’s Lincoln to reflect a purchase price of $735 million, which has been reduced from $771 million. The purchase price adjustment results in the initial cash yield’s favorable adjustment from 7.6% to 8.0% based on $58.8 million initial cash rent. GLPI has also been granted a call right, subject only to regulatory approval, beginning on October 1, 2026 to ensure that GLPI has the opportunity to acquire the property prior to the expiration of the current option period.
Peter Carlino, Chairman and CEO of GLPI commented, “We are delighted to partner again with Bally’s on this series of highly attractive transactions that will benefit our shareholders and represent a win-win for both parties. These transactions will be accretive to our financial results, delivering an 8.3% blended initial cash yield and are structured with conservative rent coverage. GLPI is ideally positioned for these transactions as structured given our strong balance sheet, visible recurring cash flows, low leverage and the extensive casino development and construction experience that our team uniquely brings to the opportunity. This multi-faceted deal is another example of our ability to be innovative in our approach to creating opportunities for our shareholders in conjunction with our best-in-class regional gaming tenants in what remains a volatile interest rate and challenging transaction environment. Furthermore, these transactions will expand and diversify our already industry-leading regional gaming property portfolio while adding a downtown asset in a world-class city, and the nation’s third largest metropolitan area, to our unmatched geographic breadth. We look forward to working with the Bally’s team as they begin development of what promises to be a must-visit destination casino resort property in the heart of Chicago.”
Soo Kim, Chairman of Bally’s, added, “GLPI has been a great partner for many years. We are excited to expand our relationship as we leverage their development and financing expertise to grow Bally’s with the world class Chicago casino development. Chicago is a vitally important market for our company and our permanent downtown facility will become our company’s flagship property when it opens in late 2026. We are thrilled to have the investment from GLPI as we begin construction of Bally’s Chicago, and we are confident that this critical project funding milestone will be well-received by our host community and the various stakeholders in Chicago.”
