- Purchase Price of $82.6 Million With Initial Rent of $9.0 Million -- Properties Will Be Operated by Penn National Gaming, Inc. -- Acquisition Is Expected To Be Immediately Accretive -
Chief Executive Officer, Peter M. Carlino, commented, “The acquisition of Bally’s and Resorts in Tunica reflects the Company’s focus on creating shareholder value by completing accretive transactions at attractive multiples. Additionally, the transaction demonstrates our ability to work with our existing partners to create opportunities that are mutually beneficial. Penn has extensive experience operating in the Tunica market and has the ability to effectively maximize the operating potential of the properties. Inclusion of these assets in the master lease is an important benefit of this transaction as it will increase asset diversification, improve aggregate rent coverage and further enhance the benefit of cross-collateralization.”
Disclosure Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP performance measure, which the Company believes may provide additional meaningful comparisons between current results and results in prior periods. Non-GAAP performance measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative for, the reported results under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Further information regarding these measures and reconciliation to GAAP may be found in Gaming & Leisure Properties, Inc.’s SEC filings on the SEC’s website.
