Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] |
Organization and Basis of Presentation | Organization and Basis of Presentation Organization: Penn National Gaming, Inc., together with its subsidiaries (“Penn National,” the “Company,” “we,” “our,” or “us”), is a leading, diversified, multi-jurisdictional owner and manager of gaming and racing properties, online gaming, retail and online sports betting operations, and video gaming terminal (“VGT”) operations. Our wholly-owned interactive division, Penn Interactive Ventures, LLC (“Penn Interactive”), operates retail sports betting across the Company’s portfolio, as well as online sports betting, online social casino, bingo and online casinos (“iGaming”). The Company holds a 36% (inclusive of 1% on a delayed basis) equity interest in Barstool Sports, Inc. (“Barstool Sports”), a leading digital sports, entertainment, lifestyle and media company, and entered into a strategic relationship with Barstool Sports, whereby Barstool Sports will exclusively promote the Company's land-based retail sportsbooks, iGaming products and online sports betting products, including the Barstool Sportsbook mobile app, to its national audience. We launched an online sports betting app called Barstool Sports in Pennsylvania, Michigan and Illinois. We also operate iGaming in Pennsylvania and Michigan. Our my choice® customer loyalty program (the "my choice program") currently has over 20 million members and provides such members with various benefits, including complimentary goods and/or services. The Company’s strategy continues to evolve from an owner and manager of gaming and racing properties into an omni-channel provider of retail and online gaming and sports betting entertainment. As of March 31, 2021, we owned, managed, or had ownership interests in 41 gaming and racing properties in 19 states and were licensed to offer live sports betting at our properties in Colorado, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Michigan, Mississippi, Nevada, Pennsylvania, and West Virginia. The majority of the real estate assets (i.e., land and buildings) used in our operations are subject to triple net master leases, the most significant of which are the Penn Master Lease and the Pinnacle Master Lease (as such terms are defined in Note 9, “Leases,” and collectively referred to as the “Master Leases”), with Gaming and Leisure Properties, Inc. (Nasdaq: GLPI) (“GLPI”), a real estate investment trust (“REIT”). Update on the Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic: As of March 31, 2021, with the exception of Valley Race Park, all of our properties have reopened. Zia Park, which reopened on March 5, 2021, was subsequently ordered by the New Mexico State Health Department to temporarily close from April 8, 2021 through April 20, 2021. Basis of Presentation: The unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the results that would be achieved during a full year of operations or in future periods. These unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.
