Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] |
Basis Of Presentation | NOTE 1 — BASIS OF PRESENTATION The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are presented in accordance with the requirements of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and consequently do not include all of the disclosures normally required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America or those normally made in Churchill Downs Incorporated’s (the “Company”) Annual Report on Form 10-K. The year-end Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet data was derived from audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Accordingly, the reader of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should refer to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 for further information. The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with the Company’s customary accounting practices and have not been audited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of this information have been made, and all such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. The Company’s revenues and earnings are seasonal in nature. Therefore, revenues and operating results for any interim quarter are generally not indicative of the revenues and operating results for the year and may not be comparable with results for the corresponding period of the previous year. For instance, the Company historically has had fewer live racing days during the first quarter of each year, and the majority of its live racing revenue occurs during the second quarter, with the running of the Kentucky Derby and the Kentucky Oaks. The Company conducted 56 live thoroughbred racing days during each of the first quarters of 2013 and 2012. Furthermore, gaming revenues and earnings have historically been higher during the first quarter. Customer Loyalty Programs The Company’s customer loyalty programs offer incentives to customers who wager at the Company’s racetracks, through its advance deposit wagering platform, TwinSpires.com, or at its gaming facilities. The TSC Elite program is for pari-mutuel wagering at the Company’s racetracks or through TwinSpires.com. The Player’s Club is offered at the Company’s gaming facilities in Louisiana, Florida and Mississippi. As of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the outstanding reward point liabilities was $2.1 million. Promotional Allowances Promotional allowances, which include the Company’s customer loyalty programs, primarily consist of the retail value of complimentary goods and services provided to guests at no charge. The retail value of these promotional allowances is included in gross revenue and then deducted to arrive at net revenue. During the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, promotional allowances of $7.3 million and $4.4 million, respectively, were included as a reduction to arrive at net revenues. During those periods, Online Business promotional allowances were $2.4 million and $1.7 million, respectively. Gaming promotional allowances were $4.7 million and $2.5 million, respectively. Racing promotional allowances were $0.2 million for each period, respectively. The estimated cost of providing promotional allowances included in operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 totaled $2.3 million and $1.2 million, respectively. Comprehensive Income The Company had no other components of comprehensive income and, as such, comprehensive income is the same as net earnings as presented in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income.
