Leases [Abstract] |
Leases | Leases Lessee Master Leases The components contained within the Master Leases are accounted for as either (i) operating leases, (ii) finance leases, or (iii) financing obligations. Changes to future lease payments under the Master Leases (i.e., when future escalators become known or future variable rent resets occur), which are discussed below, require the Company to either (i) increase both the ROU assets and corresponding lease liabilities with respect to operating and finance leases or (ii) record the incremental variable payment associated with the financing obligation to interest expense. Penn Master Lease Pursuant to a triple net master lease with GLPI (the “Penn Master Lease”), which became effective November 1, 2013, the Company leases real estate assets associated with 19 of the gaming facilities used in its operations. The Penn Master Lease has an initial term of 15 years with four subsequent, five-year renewal periods on the same terms and conditions, exercisable at the Company’s option. The Company has determined that the lease term is 35 years. The payment structure under the Penn Master Lease includes a fixed component, a portion of which is subject to an annual escalator of up to 2%, depending on the Adjusted Revenue to Rent Ratio (as defined in the Penn Master Lease) of 1.8:1, and a component that is based on the performance, which is prospectively adjusted (i) every five years by an amount equal to 4% of the average change in net revenues of all properties under the Penn Master Lease (other than Hollywood Casino Columbus (“Columbus”) and Hollywood Casino Toledo (“Toledo”)) compared to a contractual baseline during the preceding five years (“Penn Percentage Rent”) and (ii) monthly by an amount equal to 20% of the net revenues of Columbus and Toledo in excess of a contractual baseline and subject to a rent floor specific to Toledo (see below). The next annual escalator test date is scheduled to occur effective November 1, 2020 and the next Penn Percentage Rent reset is scheduled to occur on November 1, 2023. Monthly rent associated with Columbus and monthly rent in excess of the Toledo rent floor are considered contingent rent. Expense related to operating lease components associated with Columbus and Toledo are included in “General and administrative” within our unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and the variable expense related to the financing obligation is included in “Interest expense, net” within our unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Total monthly variable expenses were as follows:

Pinnacle Master Lease In connection with the Pinnacle Acquisition in October 2018, we assumed a triple net master lease with GLPI (the “Pinnacle Master Lease”), originally effective April 28, 2016, pursuant to which the Company leases real estate assets associated with 12 of the gaming facilities used in its operations. Upon assumption of the Pinnacle Master Lease, as amended, there were 7.5 years remaining of the initial ten-year term, with five subsequent, five-year renewal periods, on the same terms and conditions, exercisable at the Company’s option. The Company has determined that the lease term is 32.5 years. The payment structure under the Pinnacle Master Lease includes a fixed component, a portion of which is subject to an annual escalator of up to 2%, depending on the Adjusted Revenue to Rent Ratio (as defined in the Pinnacle Master Lease) of 1.8:1, and a component that is based on the performance, which is prospectively adjusted every two years by an amount equal to 4% of the average change in net revenues compared to a contractual baseline during the preceding two years (“Pinnacle Percentage Rent”). The annual escalator test date and the Pinnacle Percentage Rent reset occurred on May 1, 2020. Operating Leases The Company’s operating leases consist mainly of (i) a triple net lease with GLPI for the real estate assets used in the operations of Meadows Racetrack and Casino (the “Meadows Lease”), (ii) a triple net lease with VICI Properties Inc. (NYSE: VICI) (“VICI”) for the real estate assets used in the operation of Margaritaville (the “Margaritaville Lease”), (iii) a triple net lease with VICI for the real estate assets used in the operation of Greektown (the “Greektown Lease” and collectively with the Master Leases, the Meadows Lease, and the Margaritaville Lease, the “Triple Net Leases”), (iv) ground and levee leases to landlords which were not assumed by our REIT Landlords and remain an obligation of the Company, and (v) building and equipment not subject to the Master Leases. Certain of our lease agreements include rental payments based on a percentage of sales over specified contractual amounts, rental payments adjusted periodically for inflation, and rental payments based on usage. The Company’s leases include options to extend the lease terms. The Company’s operating lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. On February 1, 2020, the Margaritaville Lease was amended to provide for a change in the measurement of the annual escalator from an Adjusted Revenue to Rent Ratio (as defined in the Margaritaville Lease) of 1.9:1 to a minimum ratio of net revenue to rent of 6.1:1. As a result of the annual escalator, which was determined to be $0.3 million, effective February 1, 2020, an additional operating right-of-use asset and corresponding operating lease liability of $3.1 million were recognized. Information related to lease term and discount rate was as follows:

Changes to future lease payments under the Master Leases (i.e., when future escalators become known or future variable rent resets occur), which are discussed below, require the Company to either (i) increase both the ROU assets and corresponding lease liabilities with respect to operating and finance leases or (ii) record the incremental variable payment associated with the financing obligation to interest expense. Penn Master Lease Pursuant to a triple net master lease with GLPI (the “Penn Master Lease”), which became effective November 1, 2013, the Company leases real estate assets associated with 19 of the gaming facilities used in its operations. The Penn Master Lease has an initial term of 15 years with four subsequent, five-year renewal periods on the same terms and conditions, exercisable at the Company’s option. The Company has determined that the lease term is 35 years. The payment structure under the Penn Master Lease includes a fixed component, a portion of which is subject to an annual escalator of up to 2%, depending on the Adjusted Revenue to Rent Ratio (as defined in the Penn Master Lease) of 1.8:1, and a component that is based on the performance, which is prospectively adjusted (i) every five years by an amount equal to 4% of the average change in net revenues of all properties under the Penn Master Lease (other than Hollywood Casino Columbus (“Columbus”) and Hollywood Casino Toledo (“Toledo”)) compared to a contractual baseline during the preceding five years (“Penn Percentage Rent”) and (ii) monthly by an amount equal to 20% of the net revenues of Columbus and Toledo in excess of a contractual baseline and subject to a rent floor specific to Toledo (see below). The next annual escalator test date is scheduled to occur effective November 1, 2020 and the next Penn Percentage Rent reset is scheduled to occur on November 1, 2023. Monthly rent associated with Columbus and monthly rent in excess of the Toledo rent floor are considered contingent rent. Expense related to operating lease components associated with Columbus and Toledo are included in “General and administrative” within our unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and the variable expense related to the financing obligation is included in “Interest expense, net” within our unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Total monthly variable expenses were as follows:
| For the three months ended March 31,
(in millions) | 2020 |  | 2019
Variable expenses included in “General and administrative” | $ | 3.1 |  |  | $ | 6.8 |

Total variable expenses | $ | 6.5 |  |  | $ | 13.1 |
Pinnacle Master Lease In connection with the Pinnacle Acquisition in October 2018, we assumed a triple net master lease with GLPI (the “Pinnacle Master Lease”), originally effective April 28, 2016, pursuant to which the Company leases real estate assets associated with 12 of the gaming facilities used in its operations. Upon assumption of the Pinnacle Master Lease, as amended, there were 7.5 years remaining of the initial ten-year term, with five subsequent, five-year renewal periods, on the same terms and conditions, exercisable at the Company’s option. The Company has determined that the lease term is 32.5 years. The payment structure under the Pinnacle Master Lease includes a fixed component, a portion of which is subject to an annual escalator of up to 2%, depending on the Adjusted Revenue to Rent Ratio (as defined in the Pinnacle Master Lease) of 1.8:1, and a component that is based on the performance, which is prospectively adjusted every two years by an amount equal to 4% of the average change in net revenues compared to a contractual baseline during the preceding two years (“Pinnacle Percentage Rent”). The annual escalator test date and the Pinnacle Percentage Rent reset occurred on May 1, 2020. Operating Leases The Company’s operating leases consist mainly of (i) a triple net lease with GLPI for the real estate assets used in the operations of Meadows Racetrack and Casino (the “Meadows Lease”), (ii) a triple net lease with VICI Properties Inc. (NYSE: VICI) (“VICI”) for the real estate assets used in the operation of Margaritaville (the “Margaritaville Lease”), (iii) a triple net lease with VICI for the real estate assets used in the operation of Greektown (the “Greektown Lease” and collectively with the Master Leases, the Meadows Lease, and the Margaritaville Lease, the “Triple Net Leases”), (iv) ground and levee leases to landlords which were not assumed by our REIT Landlords and remain an obligation of the Company, and (v) building and equipment not subject to the Master Leases. Certain of our lease agreements include rental payments based on a percentage of sales over specified contractual amounts, rental payments adjusted periodically for inflation, and rental payments based on usage. The Company’s leases include options to extend the lease terms. The Company’s operating lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. On February 1, 2020, the Margaritaville Lease was amended to provide for a change in the measurement of the annual escalator from an Adjusted Revenue to Rent Ratio (as defined in the Margaritaville Lease) of 1.9:1 to a minimum ratio of net revenue to rent of 6.1:1. As a result of the annual escalator, which was determined to be $0.3 million, effective February 1, 2020, an additional operating right-of-use asset and corresponding operating lease liability of $3.1 million were recognized. Information related to lease term and discount rate was as follows:
