Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] |
Fair Value Measurements | Fair Value Measurements ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” establishes a hierarchy that prioritizes fair value measurements based on the types of inputs used for the various valuation techniques (market approach, income approach and cost approach). The levels of the hierarchy are described below:
• | Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
• | Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; these include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals.
• | Level 3: Unobservable inputs that reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions, as there is little, if any, related market activity.
The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment and may affect the valuation of assets and liabilities and their placement within the fair value hierarchy. The following methods and assumptions are used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate. The fair value of the Company’s trade accounts receivable and payables approximates the carrying amounts. Cash and Cash Equivalents The fair value of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents approximates their carrying amount, due to the short maturity of the cash equivalents. Held-to-maturity Securities and Promissory Notes We have a management contract with Retama Development Corporation (“RDC”), a local government corporation of the City of Selma, Texas, to manage the day-to-day operations of Retama Park Racetrack, located outside of San Antonio, Texas. In addition, we own 1.0% of the equity of Retama Nominal Holder, LLC, which holds a nominal interest in the racing license used to operate Retama Park Racetrack, and a 75.5% interest in Pinnacle Retama Partners, LLC (“PRP”), which owns the contingent gaming rights that may arise if gaming under the existing racing license becomes legal in Texas in the future. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, PRP held $16.9 million in promissory notes issued by RDC and $7.5 million in local government corporation bonds issued by RDC, at amortized cost. The promissory notes and the local government corporation bonds are collateralized by the assets of Retama Park Racetrack. As of June 30, 2019, the promissory notes are included in “Other current assets” within our unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet and the local government corporation bonds, which have long-term contractual maturities, are included in “Other assets” within our unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. The contractual terms of these promissory notes include interest payments due at maturity; however, we have not recorded accrued interest on these promissory notes because uncertainty exists as to RDC’s ability to make interest payments. We have the positive intent and ability to hold the local government corporation bonds to maturity and until the amortized cost is recovered. The estimated fair values of such investments are principally based on appraised values of the land associated with Retama Park Racetrack, which are classified as Level 2 inputs. Long-term Debt The fair value of the Company’s Term Loan A Facility, Term Loan B-1 Facility and 5.625% Notes is estimated based on quoted prices in active markets and is classified as a Level 1 measurement. The fair value of the Company’s Revolving Credit Facility approximates its carrying amount as it is revolving, variable rate debt, which we classify as a Level 2 measurement. Other long-term obligations as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 included the relocation fees for Dayton and Mahoning Valley and the repayment obligation of a hotel and event center located near Hollywood Casino Lawrenceburg, which are discussed in Note 9, “Long-term Debt.” The fair values of these long-term obligations are estimated based on rates consistent with the Company’s credit rating for comparable terms and debt instruments and are classified as Level 2 measurements. Other Liabilities Other liabilities as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 principally consist of contingent consideration related to Plainridge Park Casino. The contingent consideration is calculated based on actual earnings of the gaming operations over the first 10 years of operations, which commenced on June 24, 2015. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we were contractually obligated to make seven additional annual payments. The fair value of this liability, which is included within our unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets in “Accrued expenses and other current liabilities” or “Other noncurrent liabilities,” depending on the timing of the next payment, is estimated based on an income approach using a discounted cash flow model and has been classified as a Level 3 measurement. The carrying amounts and estimated fair values by input level of the Company’s financial instruments were as follows:
