Subsequent Events [Abstract] |
Subsequent Events | SUBSEQUENT EVENTS On April 21, 2016, Boyd Gaming announced it has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire ALST Casino Holdco, LLC (“ALST”), the holding company of Aliante Gaming, LLC (“Aliante”), the owner and operator of the Aliante Casino + Hotel + Spa, an upscale, resort-style casino and hotel situated in North Las Vegas and offering premium accommodations, gaming, dining, entertainment and retail for total net cash consideration of $380 million. Boyd Gaming will acquire ALST pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “ALST Merger Agreement”), entered into on April 21, 2016, by and among, Boyd Gaming, Boyd TCII Acquisition, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Boyd Gaming (“TCII Acquisition”), and ALST. The ALST Merger Agreement provides that, pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, TCII Acquisition will merge (the “ALST Merger”) with and into ALST, and ALST will be the surviving entity in the ALST Merger, such that following the ALST Merger, ALST and Aliante will be wholly-owned subsidiaries of Boyd Gaming. The ALST Merger Agreement contains certain termination rights for both Boyd Gaming and ALST and further provides that, in connection with the termination of the ALST Merger Agreement under specified circumstances, Boyd Gaming may be required to pay ALST a termination fee of $30 million. On April 25, 2016, Boyd Gaming announced it has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire The Cannery Hotel and Casino, LLC (“Cannery”), the owner and operator of Cannery Casino Hotel, located in North Las Vegas, and Nevada Palace, LLC (“Eastside”), the owner and operator of Eastside Cannery Casino and Hotel, located in the eastern part of the Las Vegas Valley, comprising the Las Vegas assets of Cannery Casino Resorts, LLC (“Seller”), for total cash consideration of $230 million, subject to adjustment based on the working capital, including cash and less indebtedness of the acquired assets and less any transaction expenses. Boyd Gaming will acquire Cannery and Eastside pursuant to a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement (the “Cannery Purchase Agreement”), entered into on April 25, 2016, by and among, Boyd Gaming, Seller, Cannery and Eastside. The Cannery Purchase Agreement provides that, pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, Boyd Gaming will acquire from Seller all of the issued and outstanding membership interests of Cannery and Eastside (the “Cannery Purchase”), such that following the Cannery Purchase, Cannery and Eastside will be wholly-owned subsidiaries of Boyd Gaming. The Cannery Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, covenants and termination rights. In addition, $20 million of the cash consideration will be placed in escrow to satisfy the indemnification obligations of Seller. The completion of the ALST Merger and the Cannery Purchase are each subject to customary conditions and the receipt of all required regulatory approvals, including, among others, approval by the Nevada Gaming Commission and the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended. Subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the respective conditions in each of the ALST Merger Agreement and the Cannery Purchase Agreement, we currently expect each of the transactions to close during the third quarter of 2016. We have evaluated all events or transactions that occurred after March 31, 2016. During this period, up to the filing date, we did not identify any additional subsequent events, other than those disclosed above, the effects of which would require disclosure or adjustment to our financial position or results of operations.
