Acquisitions and Divestitures
ACQUISITIONS AND DIVESTITURES
Ameristar Casino Hotel Kansas City; Ameristar Casino Resort Spa St. Charles; Belterra Casino Resort; Belterra Park
On October 15, 2018, we completed the acquisition of Ameristar Casino Kansas City, LLC ("Ameristar Kansas City"), the owner and operator of Ameristar Casino Hotel Kansas City; Ameristar Casino St. Charles, LLC ("Ameristar St. Charles"), the owner and operator of Ameristar Casino Resort Spa St. Charles; Belterra Resort Indiana LLC ("Belterra Resort"), the owner and operator of Belterra Casino Resort located in Florence, Indiana; and PNK (Ohio), LLC ("Belterra Park"), the owner and operator of Belterra Park, located in Cincinnati, Ohio (collectively, the "Pinnacle Properties"), pursuant to a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement (as amended, the "Pinnacle Purchase Agreement"), dated as of December 17, 2017, as amended as of January 29, 2018 ("Amendment No. 1") and October 15, 2018 ("Amendment No. 2"), in each case by and among Boyd Gaming, Boyd TCIV, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Boyd Gaming ("Boyd TCIV"), Penn National Gaming, Inc. ("Penn"), and, solely following the execution and delivery of a joinder to the Pinnacle Purchase Agreement, Pinnacle Entertainment, Inc. ("Pinnacle Entertainment") and its wholly owned subsidiary, Pinnacle MLS, LLC (collectively with Pinnacle Entertainment, "Pinnacle").

Pursuant to the Pinnacle Purchase Agreement, Boyd Gaming acquired from Pinnacle all of the issued and outstanding membership interests of the Acquired Companies as well as certain other assets (and assumed certain other liabilities) of Pinnacle related to the Acquired Companies (collectively, the "Pinnacle Acquisition"). Each of the Acquired Companies is now a wholly owned subsidiary of Boyd Gaming. The acquired companies are aggregated into our Midwest & South segment (See Note 13, Segment Information). The net purchase price was $568.3 million.

Pursuant to the Pinnacle Purchase Agreement, Boyd TCIV entered into a Master Lease, dated October 15, 2018 (the "Master Lease"), with Gold Merger Sub, LLC ("Gold Merger Sub"), as landlord, and Boyd TCIV, as tenant, pursuant to which the landlord agreed to lease to Boyd TCIV the facilities associated with Ameristar Kansas City, Ameristar St. Charles, Belterra Resort and Ogle Haus, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Belterra Resort ("Ogle Haus"), commencing on October 15, 2018 and ending on April 30, 2026 as the initial term, with options for renewal.

The Pinnacle Acquisition occurred substantially concurrently with the acquisition of Pinnacle Entertainment by Penn pursuant to the Merger Agreement, dated December 17, 2017, by and among Pinnacle Entertainment, Penn and Franchise Merger Sub, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Penn.

Concurrently with the Pinnacle Acquisition, Boyd (Ohio) PropCo, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Boyd TCIV ("Boyd PropCo"), acquired the real estate associated with Belterra Park in Cincinnati, Ohio (the "Belterra Park Real Property Sale") utilizing mortgage financing from a subsidiary of Gaming and Leisure Properties, Inc. ("GLPI"), pursuant to a purchase agreement, dated December 17, 2017 ("Belterra Park Purchase Agreement"), by and among Penn, Gold Merger Sub, a wholly owned subsidiary of GLPI, Belterra Park and Pinnacle Entertainment, and a Novation and Amendment Agreement, dated October 15, 2018 (the "Novation Agreement"), by and among Penn, Gold Merger Sub, Boyd PropCo, Belterra Park and Pinnacle Entertainment. Pursuant to the Novation Agreement, Gold Merger Sub, the original purchaser under the Belterra Park Purchase Agreement, assigned, transferred and conveyed to Boyd PropCo and Boyd PropCo accepted Gold Merger Sub’s rights, title and interest in the Belterra Park Purchase Agreement.

Consideration Transferred
The fair value of the consideration transferred on the date of the Pinnacle Purchase Agreement included the purchase price of the net assets transferred. The total gross cash consideration was $607.3 million.

Status of Purchase Price Allocation
The Company is following the acquisition method of accounting per FASB Accounting Standards Codification Topic 805 ("ASC 805") guidance. For purposes of these consolidated financial statements, we have allocated the purchase price to the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed based on preliminary estimates of fair value as determined by management with the assistance from third-party specialists. The excess of the purchase price over the preliminary estimated fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed has been recorded as goodwill. The Company will recognize the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the acquisition based on fair value estimates as of the date of the Pinnacle Acquisition. The determination of the fair values of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities (and the related determination of estimated lives of depreciable tangible and identifiable intangible assets) is currently in process. This determination requires significant judgment. As such, management has not completed its valuation analysis and calculations in sufficient detail necessary to finalize the determination of the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, along with the related allocations of goodwill and intangible assets. The final fair value determinations are expected to be completed during first quarter 2019. The final fair value determinations may be significantly different than those reflected in the consolidated financial statements at December 31, 2018.

Pursuant to the Lattner Merger Agreement, Boyd TCVI merged with and into Lattner (the "Lattner Merger"), with Lattner surviving the Lattner Merger and becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of Boyd.

Cannery Casino Hotel and Nevada Palace, LLC
On December 20, 2016, Boyd Gaming completed the acquisitions of Cannery, the owner and operator of Cannery Casino Hotel, and Nevada Palace, LLC, the owner and operator of Eastside Cannery Casino and Hotel, pursuant to a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") dated as of April 25, 2016, as amended on October 28, 2016, by and among Boyd, Cannery Casino Resorts, LLC ("Seller"), Cannery and Eastside Cannery.

Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, Boyd acquired from Seller all of the issued and outstanding membership interests of Cannery and Eastside Cannery (the "Canneries Acquisition"). With the closing of the Canneries Acquisition, both Cannery and Eastside Cannery became wholly owned subsidiaries of Boyd. Accordingly, the assets and liabilities of Cannery and Eastside Cannery are included in our consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2018 and 2017 and the results of their operations and cash flows in our consolidated statements of operations and cash flows, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 and the period from December 20, 2016 through December 31, 2016. The Cannery and Eastside Cannery are modern casinos and hotels in the Las Vegas Valley that offer premium accommodations, gaming, dining, entertainment and retail, and are aggregated into our Las Vegas Locals segment (see Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies). The net purchase price was $228.2 million.

The fair value of the consideration transferred to the Seller on the acquisition date included the purchase price of the net assets transferred. The total gross cash consideration was $238.6 million. In addition, the Purchase Agreement provided for a working capital adjustment to the purchase consideration. This adjustment was calculated during second quarter 2017 and paid during the third quarter, resulting in an additional $1.2 million being paid to Seller.

Acquisition Method of Accounting
The Company followed the acquisition method of accounting according to the guidance of ASC 805. For purposes of these financial statements, we have allocated the purchase price to the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed based on their fair values, as determined by management based on its judgment with assistance from third-party appraisals. The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed has been recorded as goodwill.

Investment in and Divestiture of Borgata
On August 1, 2016, Boyd Gaming completed the sale of its 50% equity interest in Marina District Development Holding Company, LLC ("MDDHC"), the parent company of Borgata, to MGM, pursuant to an Equity Purchase Agreement ("Purchase Agreement") entered into on May 31, 2016, as amended on July 19, 2016, by and among Boyd, Boyd Atlantic City, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Boyd ("Seller"), and MGM. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, MGM acquired from Boyd Gaming 49% of its 50% membership interest in MDDHC and, immediately thereafter, MDDHC redeemed Boyd Gaming’s remaining 1% membership interest in MDDHC (collectively, the "Transaction"). Following the Transaction, MDDHC became a wholly owned subsidiary of MGM.

In consideration for the Transaction, MGM paid Boyd Gaming $900 million. The initial net cash proceeds were approximately $589 million, net of certain expenses and adjustments on the closing date, including outstanding indebtedness, cash and working capital. The after-tax gain on the sale of Borgata was $181.7 million and is included in discontinued operations in the year ended December 31, 2016. The initial proceeds did not include our 50% share of any future property tax settlement benefits, from the time period during which we held a 50% ownership in MDDHC, to which Boyd Gaming retained the right to receive upon payment. During 2016, we recognized $9.1 million in income, which is included in discontinued operations, for the cash we received for our share of property tax benefits realized by Borgata subsequent to the closing of the sale. On February 15, 2017, Borgata announced that it had entered into a settlement agreement under which it would receive payments totaling $72 million to resolve the property tax issues. Borgata received full payment, and we received our share of the proceeds, in June 2017. For the year ended December 31, 2017, we recognized $36.2 million in income for the cash we received for our share of property tax benefits realized by Borgata after the closing of the sale. These proceeds, net of tax of $14.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2017, are included in discontinued operations in the consolidated financial statements. During the year ended December 31, 2018, we recognized $0.3 million in income, net of tax, for the cash received for our share of miscellaneous recoveries realized by Borgata during that period, which are included in discontinued operations in the consolidated financial statements.

We accounted for our investment in Borgata applying the equity method, through the date of the sale, and, as a result of the sale, we reported the results as discontinued operations for all periods presented in these consolidated financial statements.

The table below summarizes the results of operations information for the period prior to the date of divestiture:
