Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This Annual Report on Form 10-K includes forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws.
Forward-looking statements are statements as to matters that are not historical facts, and include statements about our plans,
objectives, expectations and intentions.
Forward-looking statements are not guarantees and are subject to risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking statements are based
on our current expectations and assumptions. Although we believe that our expectations and assumptions are reasonable at this
time, they should not be regarded as representations that our expectations will be achieved. Actual results may vary materially.
Forward-looking statements speak only as of the time of this Annual Report on Form 10-K and we do not undertake to update
or revise them as more information becomes available, except as required by law.
Important factors beyond those that apply to most businesses, some of which are beyond our control, that could cause actual
results to differ materially from our expectations and assumptions include, without limitation:
•unexpected costs and other events impacting our planned construction projects, including Bally’s Chicago;
•unexpected costs, difficulties integrating and other events impacting our completed acquisitions and our ability to
realize anticipated benefits;
•risks associated with our rapid growth, including those affecting customer and employee retention, integration and
controls;
•risks associated with the impact of the digitalization of gaming on our casino operations, our expansion into online
gaming (“iGaming”) and sports betting and the highly competitive and rapidly changing aspects of our interactive
businesses generally;
•the very substantial regulatory restrictions applicable to us, including costs of compliance;
•global economic challenges, including the impact of public health crises, global and regional conflicts, rising inflation,
rising interest rates and supply-chain disruptions, could cause economic uncertainty and volatility and impact
discretionary consumer spending;
•restrictions and limitations in agreements to which we are subject, including our debt, could significantly affect our
ability to operate our business and our liquidity; and
•other risks identified in Part I. Item 1A. “Risk Factors” of this Annual Report on Form 10‑K.
The foregoing list of important factors is not exclusive and does not include matters like changes in general economic
conditions that affect substantially all gaming businesses.
You should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements.

PART I
ITEM 1.BUSINESS
Bally’s Corporation, a Delaware corporation, with global headquarters in Providence, Rhode Island, is referred to as the
“Company,” “Bally’s,” “we,” “our” or “us.” Our common stock is traded on the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”)
under the symbol “BALY”.
Our Company
We are a global gaming, hospitality, entertainment and technology company with an expanding international footprint across
casino, interactive and lottery markets. We provide our customers and partners with physical and interactive entertainment and
gaming experiences worldwide. Our offerings include traditional casino gaming, iGaming, online bingo, sportsbook, free-to-
p lay games and technology driven lottery and gaming solutions.
As of February 28, 2026, we own and operate 20 casinos globally, including in the United Kingdom (“UK”) and in 11 states
across the United States (“US”), along with a golf course in New York and a horse racetrack in Colorad o.
We also own Bally Bet Sportsbook & Casino, a premier sports betting and iCasino platform licensed in 14 jurisdictions in
North America, and a majority equity interest in Bally’s Intralot S.A. (“Intralot”) which is active in 39 jurisdictions worldwide
and is comprised of a global lottery, technology, management and services business and also the Bally’s Interactive
International division, a leading global interactive gaming operator. We also have rights to developable land in Las Vegas at the
site of the former Tropicana Las Vegas, have been awarded a license to build a full-scale casino and resort in The Bronx, New
York, and are developing an integrated destination resort in Chicago, Illinois.
Our revenues are primarily generated by these gaming and entertainment offerings. Our proprietary software and technology
stack is designed to allow us to provide consumers with differentiated offerings and exclusive content.
Our Strategy and Business Developments
We seek to continue to grow our business by focusing on expanding our integrated casino and interactive gaming platform,
optimizing our capital structure, and employing disciplined growth initiatives. We believe that interactive gaming represents a
significant strategic opportunity for the future growth of Bally’s and we will continue to proactively allocate resources in
regions where we anticipate iGaming regulation, in addition to those markets where iGaming is already well-established.
Across the globe, we engage in multiple state and private bidding processes, seeking to obtain new lottery agreements through
our innovative technology and solutions. We seek to increase revenues at our casinos and resorts through enhancing the guest
experience by providing popular games, restaurants, hotel accommodations, entertainment and other amenities in attractive
surroundings with high-quality guest service. We believe that our recent acquisitions have expanded and diversified us from
financial and market exposure perspectives, while continuing to mitigate our susceptibility to regional economic downturns,
idiosyncratic regulatory changes and increases in regional competition.
In 2025, we continued to execute our long-term strategy, focusing on portfolio expansion, interactive and digital growth, capital
structure optimization and operational excellence. Notable efforts included:
•In February 2025, we completed the previously announced merger transactions with Standard General L.P. and its
affiliates (“Standard General”) and The Queen Casino & Entertainment, Inc., and affiliate of Standard General
(“Queen Casino”), adding four regional gaming properties to our Casinos and Resorts portfolio. We believe that these
acquisitions strengthen our presence in core US markets and support our strategy of geographic diversification.
•In October 2025, we completed a landmark multi-stage transaction with Intralot that reshaped our operating footprint
by combining our Bally’s International Interactive business with Intralot’s lottery and gaming operations. We believe
that this strategic combination established a cohesive global footprint that strengthened both our business-to-business
(“B2B”) and business-to-consumer (“B2C”) channels. This integration brought together our advanced digital
technology framework, data systems and interactive expertise with Intralot’s established lottery infrastructure and
global market reach. We own 57.9% in the combined entity, which is listed on the Athens Stock Exchange as BYLOT.
•In April 20 25, we committed A$200 million in convertible notes and subordinated debt to acquire an approximately
38% economic interest in The Star Entertainment Group Limited (“The Star”), a leading Australian casino operator
with properties in Sydney, Brisbane and the Gold Coast. This investment expands our international footprint and helps
position us for further long-term global growth.
5
•During 2025, Bally’s Chicago, Inc., a consolidated subsidiary of the Company, successfully completed a public
offering and private placements, which offered equity to local and accredited investors in an innovative public-private
structure that enhances our local stakeholder alignment, demonstrating our commitment to communities in the City of
Chicago and other parts of Illinois.
•Construction of our permanent Chicago casino progressed throughout the year, supported by operations at the Bally’s
Chicago Casino temporary facility. We continued to refine customer engagement strategies and integrate data analytics
to optimize performance ahead of the permanent opening.
•In September 2025, we announced plans for the former Tropicana Las Vegas site that include the development of the
future Las Vegas Athletics Major League Baseball stadium and an expansive integrated casino, retail, dining and
entertainment complex.
•In December 2025, we were awarded one of New York State’s three downstate commercial casino licenses for our
Bally’s Bronx project, a transformational $4 billion integrated casino resort project located within Bally’s Golf Links
at Ferry Point in The Bronx, New York. This resort project aims to create sustainable economical advancement and
meaningful engagement and collaboration within the community.
•During 2025, several lottery contracts were awarded to Intralot including contracts for VLTs monitoring system in
Nebraska and in New Zealand and contracts for lottery systems in New Hampshire, Idaho and Arkansas.
Collectively, these initiatives have advanced our transformation into a globally diversified gaming and technology operator with
a strengthened portfolio, expanded global footprint and enhanced platforms across both digital and land-based channels.
2025 Transactions
On February 7, 2025, the Company completed the previously announced transactions under the Agreement and Plan of Merger
(as amended, the “Merger Agreement”) with SG Parent LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Parent”), The Queen
Casino & Entertainment, Inc., a Delaware corporation and affiliate of Parent (“Queen”), Epsilon Sub I, Inc., a Delaware
corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub I”), Epsilon Sub II, Inc., a Delaware corporation and
wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub II”, and together with the Company and Merger Sub I, the “Company
Parties”), and, solely for purposes of specified provisions thereof, SG CQ Gaming LLC, a Delaware limited liability company
(“SG Gaming” and together with Parent and Queen, the “Buyer Parties”). Refer to Note 1 “General Information” to our
consolidated financial statements presented in Part II, Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K for more information on the
Merger Agreement and the mergers.
On October 8, 2025 (the “Intralot Closing Date”), the Company completed the previously announced acquisition under the
transaction agreement (the “Transaction Agreement”) of Intralot, pursuant to which Intralot agreed to acquire Bally’s
International Interactive through a combined cash-and-equity transaction. Pursuant to the Transaction Agreement, (i) Intralot
paid the Company €1.5 million ($1.8 billion) in cash and issued approximately 873.7 million new shares in exchange for all of
the issued and outstanding capital stock of Bally’s Holdings Limited which held Bally’s International Interactive, (ii) the
Company’s ownership of Intralot increased to a controlling 57.9% interest through the issuance of equity to the Company’s
consolidated subsidiary Premier Entertainment Sub, LLC via PE Sub Holdings LLC, an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the
Company, making the Company the majority shareholder of Intralot (the “Intralot Transaction”).
As a result of obtaining a controlling financial interest in Intralot, the Company retained control of Bally’s International
Interactive, via Bally’s Holdings Limited, throughout the transaction. On the Intralot Closing Date, legal ownership of Bally’s
Holdings Limited transferred from Premier Entertainment Sub to Intralot; however, Bally’s Corporation simultaneously
obtained control of Intralot. Accordingly, Bally’s maintained control of Bally’s International Interactive, and as a result, the
transfer of Bally’s International Interactive was accounted for as an equity transaction with the initial recognition of a 42.1%
non-controlling interest, and no gain or loss was recognized in earnings.
For further information on our recent acquisitions, refer to Notes 1 “General Information” and 7 “Business Combinations” to
our consolidated financial statements presented in Part II, Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Our Brands
Bally’s Brand
Bally’s is an iconic brand with broad recognition in the gaming industry. Our market research indicates that active gamers
demonstrate strong awareness of the Bally’s name, though historically they have had limited engagement with Bally’s‑branded
products and gaming offerings. In recent years, we have undertaken a comprehensive rebranding initiative across our casinos
and resorts portfolio to build upon the deep legacy of the Bally’s brand.
7
Our research further indicates that gamers across demographic segments recognize Bally’s and associate the brand with gaming
entertainment, including slot machines, pinball machines, video gaming, and casinos. We continue to execute on our vision of
establishing Bally’s as a premier, fully integrated, omni‑channel gaming destination for both retail and online players. These
insights have informed the development of our Bally Rewards program, which enables customers to earn and redeem rewards
seamlessly across online platforms, our sportsbook, and our casino resorts.
We believe our phased approach to transforming and unifying the Bally’s brand has been thoughtful and deliberate. While
certain properties operate under legacy or third‑party naming rights arrangements, Bally’s remains central to our long‑term
strategic positioning.
In summary, we remain focused on advancing Bally’s as a legendary, integrated brand by leveraging our casinos and resorts
footprint, interactive offerings, media assets, and our comprehensive rewards program to enhance customer engagement and
rival our competition.
Interactive Brands
We operate a suite of award-winning brands and are focused on building a diverse portfolio of distinctive and recognizable
brands that deliver player experiences and gaming content globally. Our brands are generally as follows, which include certain
licensed brands:
•iGaming brands: Bally Bet, Rainbow Riches Casino, Virgin Games, Monopoly Casino;
•Online bingo: Jackpotjoy, Double Bubble Bingo and Botemania;
•Sportsbook: Bally Bet;
•Free-to-Play Games: Bally Play, Bally Sports Live and SportCaller;
•Telescope, a provider of real-time audience engagement solutions for live events, gamified second screen experiences
and interactive livestreams.
Lottery Brands
Our lottery brands include LotosX, which serves as our open and modular software ecosystem enabling operators to deliver
secure, reliable, and flexible gaming services with improved operational efficiency, and PhotonX, which is one of the market’s
highest‑performance retail lottery terminals, providing fast, dependable transaction processing and a seamless experience for
both operators and players.
Our Technology and Product Development
At Bally’s, we have developed an integrated suite of real‑money gaming and lottery technologies that support a diverse
portfolio of localized products. Our platforms combine proprietary innovation with third‑party solutions, enabling flexibility,
scalability, and responsiveness to market needs.
Our technology stack delivers core player account management capabilities, including responsible gaming tools, compliance
infrastructure, and secure, high‑performance digital wallets. Our data and analytics platform supports essential marketing
processes and enables a unified, customer‑focused experience across our casinos and resorts, as well as our online gaming,
sports betting, and lottery businesses.
We remain committed to advancing technology that strengthens our competitive position and enhances the customer
experience. A key objective is the continued integration of products and systems across our portfolio to deliver a seamless,
end‑to‑end experience. We also plan to expand our data analytics capabilities to improve the identification and management of
problem‑gambling indicators while enhancing product personalization and entertainment value.
Our approach is grounded in more than two decades of experience in global lottery and online gaming markets, combined with
Intralot’s extensive lottery heritage, Bally’s iGaming expertise, and longstanding partnerships with leading third‑party sports
and gaming providers. Our technology and product development teams continue to innovate, adapt to emerging trends, and
support expansion into new markets.
A significant milestone in our technology strategy is Vitruvian, our advanced data and marketing platform that leverages
real‑time data, artificial intelligence (“AI”), and machine learning (“ML”). Vitruvian supports predictive analytics, real‑time
responsible gaming monitoring, and highly personalized marketing and content recommendations. Together with our existing
lottery, sports, and gaming platforms, it provides a robust foundation for continued innovation and future market launches.
8
In 2025, we continued to strengthen our online gaming and sports betting offerings, including the rollout of a redesigned
proprietary sportsbook interface in North America. Across the Bally’s Intralot B2C segment, we expanded sports offerings
through the Kambi platform, introduced the “Jackpot Blast” jackpot product, and completed deployment of Vitruvian. These
enhancements reinforced our responsible gaming frameworks, improved platform efficiency, and supported more personalized
customer engagement.
Intralot’s lottery portfolio further expands our global technology footprint, providing solutions across 40 markets. These include
proprietary systems for state‑operated traditional lotteries under long‑term contracts, iLottery platforms, advanced VLT
monitoring systems for large‑scale gaming networks, and “Orion,” a retail‑focused sports betting platform designed to leverage
existing retail infrastructure.
Throughout 2026, we expect to advance integration between Bally’s Interactive and Intralot technologies. This work is intended
to strengthen our long‑term technology roadmap, enhance future B2B opportunities, and introduce additional capabilities across
our B2C operations in both existing and emerging markets.
Marketing
Bally’s marketing strategy centers on a well-defined vision: driving sustainable growth, increasing market share, and
strengthening competitive advantage within each region in which we conduct business. To realize these objectives, we utilize a
cohesive, analytics-based strategy that spans six primary marketing channels - Advertising, Direct Marketing, Player
Development, Special Events and Promotions, Entertainment, and our Bally Rewards loyalty program.
This multi‑channel ecosystem enables us to create consistent brand experiences while tailoring our message to the unique
dynamics of each market. Our marketing system is crafted to drive both visitation and revenue with targeted precision,
efficiency and a strategic approach, serving over 12 million Bally Rewards members across North America.
Our transformation is clear and intentional. We are purposefully adopting a growth-oriented strategy, focusing on expanding
our database, enhancing customer loyalty and boosting revenue growth, all while upholding prudent reinvestment. By directing
resources towards high impact, high return initiatives, particularly in regional markets with fierce competition, Bally’s is
dedicated to capturing market share through more effective marketing, deeper customer engagement, and premier analytics.
Our strategy centers on a comprehensive analysis of data, assessing not only efficiency but also effectiveness. Through insights
into customer actions, prevailing market trends, and reinvestment economics, we are able to optimize returns and maintain
long-term growth, even when faced with strong competitive environments.
Advertising
Bally’s takes a distinctly different approach from traditional casino advertising, choosing to emphasize targeted, action-oriented
communications rather than widespread brand awareness campaigns. The Company allocates its advertising budget toward
initiatives that prompt instant customer engagement, such as special events, entertainment options, promotional activities, and
amenity‑based offers.
Years of operating in highly competitive regional markets have shown that targeted advertising outperforms generic messaging,
strengthening both visitation and overall brand value. We leverage a diversified media mix to connect with every customer
segment, ensuring relevance and maximizing conversion.
Direct Marketing
Direct marketing is the foundation of our customer engagement model. It allows us to build personalized, data‑driven
relationships through tailored offers designed to stimulate initial visits, increase frequency, and reactivate inactive or
low‑frequency players.
Our strategy differentiates itself by being more aggressive and more analytical than traditional approaches. We believe our
success across the portfolio has come from optimizing reinvestment without oversaturation and from leveraging a rules‑based
decision engine that incorporates multiple customer‑value and behavioral data points. This strategy is designed to promote
precision, improve ROI, and enhance the customer experience through relevancy and consistency.
9
Player Development
Our VIP segment—representing over 60% of rated casino revenue—is the core of Bally’s business. The Player Development
team sits at the heart of our customer‑relationship strategy, building and maintaining high‑value relationships that directly
impact property performance.
This group works with divisional and property‑level leadership to drive:
•Premium player acquisition
•Retention and loyalty
•VIP revenue growth
•Best‑in‑class service delivery
We believe that providing exceptional hospitality, exclusive experiences, tailored offers, and personalized entertainment helps
Bally’s remains a preferred destination for our most valuable customers. Player Development is not just a marketing function—
it is a strategic revenue engine critical to our long‑term growth.
Special Events and Promotions
Programming is one of the most important drivers of visitation in regional gaming markets, and Bally’s leverages its loyalty
program to deliver high‑value, segmented event strategies. We believe gift programs, promotional offers, card‑tier events, and
themed activation calendars reinforce loyalty and accelerate repeat visitation.
Our approach seeks to balance broad‑appeal promotions with elevated, targeted experiences designed to deliver incremental
revenue from core customer segments. This approach aims to strengthen the Bally Rewards program and enhance brand affinity
across the database.
Entertainment
Entertainment plays a vital role in our mission to attract and retain gamers. Through a mix of headline acts and compelling local
entertainment in lounges and bars, Bally’s strives to create a differentiated customer experience that drives both gaming and
non‑gaming revenue.
By integrating entertainment into our marketing strategy, we expand our reach to new audiences, so that we may grow our
loyalty base and reinforce the Bally’s brand as engaging, fun, and experience‑driven.
Bally Rewards Loyalty Program
The Bally Rewards Program is the backbone of our customer ecosystem. Designed to unify the brand across all Casinos &
Resorts properties, the program features five tiers—Pro, Star, Superstar, Legend, and Champion—each offering escalating
benefits.
The future vision includes a true “one card system” allowing customers to seamlessly use their benefits across properties and
online. Our focus is on expanding benefits beyond the casino floor, giving customers more reasons to stay loyal to the Bally’s
brand.
Interactive Cross Marketing
Our cross‑marketing strategy bridges online and land‑based gaming through coordinated campaigns across direct mail, property
marketing, and VIP channels. We believe these initiatives increase interactive product adoption while driving interactive
customers back into land‑based properties. In jurisdictions where we have both strong retail and interactive business, we believe
we have the opportunity to use our database to cross sell customers and unlock value in the database. This is a growing area of
opportunity, and we look to deploy in more markets as our interactive business grows.
10
Competition
The gaming industry is one of the most competitive in the entertainment landscape, spanning land‑based casinos, Native
American properties, online gaming, sports betting, Video Lottery Terminals (“VLTs”), sweepstakes, fantasy sports, and
countless non‑gaming leisure alternatives. Competitive pressure is significant in every jurisdiction where we operate—
especially from low‑tax competitors such as certain Native American casinos.
As legalized gaming continues to expand across the US and internationally, Bally’s must maintain a disciplined, data‑driven
marketing strategy to protect market share, grow in key regional markets, and continue positioning the brand for long‑term
success.
Seasonality
Seasonal patterns, including weather, tourism cycles, and transportation conditions, affect performance across several Bally’s
properties. Regional casinos often peak in the spring; destination properties in the summer. Sports betting follows major sports
seasons. Because these fluctuations can materially impact performance, Bally’s proactively aligns programming, reinvestment,
and marketing calendars to maximize results during peak demand and offset seasonal declines.
Human Capital Resources
Engaging and Investing in the Community
The Company believes that in order to flourish in a competitive environment and global economy, all ideas must be on the
table, and an environment that welcomes and encourages diverse perspectives leads to success in business. A driving factor of
our success is ensuring that our team members are player-centric and proactive in finding ways to entertain and deliver custom
experiences for our broad and diverse global players and guests.
We believe that by providing our employees with competitive pay and benefits, as well as opportunities for professional
development, we can achieve our goals of attracting and retaining a creative and engaged workforce reflective of our players,
guests and customers. Our professional development efforts include robust training programs, at no cost to the employee,
scholarships, and tuition reimbursement opportunities. In addition, we maintain a Management Development Program which is
designed to allow us to identify and promote high performing talent within our workforce. We also engage with our employees
through a number of health and wellness programs which include an annual wellness fair, annual flu shots, weight loss
programs, quarterly fitness challenges, employee assistance program, student loan assistance, and weekly wellness
communications providing helpful information on health initiatives.
We also believe in the importance of giving back to our communities and have several community impact initiatives, including
fundraising events to support local organizations and community service events. We encourage our employees to participate in
these events and recognize their efforts and contributions in their respective communities.
Labor Relations
As of December 31, 2025, we had approximately 11,700 employees. A large number of our employees at our Casinos &
Resorts properties within several US states are represented by a labor union and are subject to collective bargaining agreements
with us. As of December 31, 2025, we had 36 collective bargaining agreements covering 3,679 employees. Our collective
bargaining agreements generally have three-or-five-year terms.
Environmental, Social and Corporate Governance
Bally’s is committed to engaging and investing in the communities in which we operate and promoting a diverse and inclusive
workplace for our valued team members. We strive to make a positive impact and embrace our commitment to responsible
gaming and business practices.
Across all jurisdictions where we are located, we are dedicated to building stronger communities by becoming an integral part
of the local community by hosting fundraisers, building relationships, growing tourism, and supporting local non-profits. The
Company made a landmark $5 million commitment over five years to the Community College of Rhode Island Foundation as
part of a strategic workforce and economic development partnership in the State of Rhode Island. This investment has led to the
development and launch of a comprehensive Table Games Dealer Training Academy at the college campus near one of our
largest casinos. The program's inaugural class achieved a 100% graduation rate, with all graduates receiving job offers from
Bally’s, the majority of which remain active team members today.
11
In addition, we are committed to ensuring responsible play and guest safety. All our employees participate in training to better
equip them to identify and mitigate problem play. The Company is a member of the U.S. Responsible Online Gaming
Association and the corporate Leadership Circle for the National Council on Problem Gambling, adopted American Gaming
Association’s Responsible Marketing Code of Conduct and supported its annual “Have a Game Plan” Campaign, and received
RG Check responsible gaming accreditation for online operations BallyCasino.com and VirginCasino.com (since rebranded to
MONOPOLYCasinoUS.com). We are also committed to supporting responsible gaming research and donated over $1 million
to the International Center of Responsible Gaming for expanded research for underage play prevention and the usage of
responsible gaming tools since 2022.
Governmental Gaming Regulation
General
The casino, iGaming and lottery industries are highly regulated, and we must maintain licenses and pay gaming taxes in each
jurisdiction in which we operate. Our casino and iGaming businesses, as well as our lottery contracts which are typically B2B
in nature, serving government run and state regulated lottery organizations, are subject to extensive regulation under the laws,
rules and regulations of the jurisdiction in which we operate. These laws, rules and regulations generally concern the
responsibility, financial stability, integrity and character of the owners, managers, officers and certain employees of our gaming
operations. Probity checks are conducted by regulatory authorities to establish that such persons are fit and proper. Violations
of laws or regulations in one jurisdiction could result in disciplinary action in that and other jurisdictions.
Some jurisdictions, including those in which we are licensed, empower their regulators to investigate participation by licensees
in gaming outside their jurisdiction and require access to periodic reports reflecting those gaming activities.
Pursuant to the gaming laws in the jurisdictions where we have operations, and under our organizational documents, certain of
our securities are subject to restrictions on ownership which may be imposed by specified governmental authorities. These
restrictions may require a holder of our securities to dispose of the securities, or, if the holder refuses or is unable to dispose of
the securities, we may be required to repurchase the securities.
For a more detailed description of regulations to which we are subject, see Exhibit 99.1, to this Annual Report on Form 10-K,
which is incorporated herein by reference.
Our Regulatory Agreement
We are party to an Amended and Restated Regulatory Agreement (the “Regulatory Agreement”), with the Rhode Island
Department of Business Regulation (“DBR”) and the State Lottery Division of the Rhode Island Department of Revenue
(“DoL”). The Regulatory Agreement contains financial and other covenants that, among other things, (i) restrict the acquisition
of stock and other financial interests in us, (ii) relate to the licensing and composition of members of our management and
Board of Directors (the “Board”), (iii) prohibit certain competitive activities and related-party transactions and (iv) restrict our
ability to declare or make restricted payments (including dividends), incur additional indebtedness or take certain other actions,
if our leverage ratio exceeds 5.50 to 1.00 (in general being gross debt divided by Adjusted EBITDA, each as defined in the
Regulatory Agreement).
The Regulatory Agreement also provides affirmative obligations, including setting a minimum number of employees that we
must employ in Rhode Island and providing the DBR and DoL with periodic information updates about us. Among other
things, the Regulatory Agreement prohibits us and our subsidiaries from owning, operating, managing or providing gaming
specific goods and services to any properties in Rhode Island (other than Bally’s Twin River and Bally’s Tiverton),
Massachusetts, Connecticut or New Hampshire. A failure to comply with the Regulatory Agreement could subject us to
injunctive and monetary relief, and ultimately the revocation or suspension of our licenses to operate in Rhode Island.
12
The DoL also has regulatory authority over Bally’s under our VLT master contracts with the DoL. Our master contracts with
Rhode Island extended through June 30, 2043, and allow for consolidation of promotional points between Bally’s Twin River
and Bally’s Tiverton, obligate Bally’s Twin River to build a 50,000 square foot expansion, obligate Bally’s to lease at least
20,000 square feet of commercial space in Providence, and commit us to invest $100 million in Rhode Island over the term,
including an expansion and the addition of new amenities at Bally’s Twin River. As a licensed Technology Provider since July
1, 2021, Bally’s Twin River is entitled to an additional share of net terminal income on VLTs which they owned or leased. June
2021 legislation in Rhode Island also authorized a joint venture between Bally’s and IGT Global Solutions Corporation (“IGT”)
to become a licensed technology provider and supply the State of Rhode Island with all VLTs at both Bally’s Twin River and
Bally’s Tiverton for a 20.5-year period starting January 1, 2023. The joint venture was organized as the Rhode Island VLT
Company, LLC, with IGT owning 60% of the membership interests and Bally’s or its affiliates owning 40% of the membership
interests (“RI Joint Venture”). On December 30, 2022, Bally’s Twin River and Bally’s Tiverton purchased additional machines
directly from IGT to effectively own 40% of the machines. On January 1, 2023, Bally’s Twin River and Bally’s Tiverton
contributed all of their machines to the RI Joint Venture in return for an aggregate 40% membership interest, and IGT
contributed all of their machines at Bally’s Twin River and Bally’s Tiverton to the RI Joint Venture in return for a 60%
membership interest.
Other Laws and Regulations
Our businesses are subject to various laws and regulations in addition to gaming regulations. These laws and regulations
include restrictions and conditions concerning alcoholic beverages, food service, smoking, environmental matters, employees
and employment practices, currency transactions, taxation, zoning and building codes, marketing and advertising and data
privacy. Such laws and regulations could change or could be interpreted differently in the future, or new laws and regulations
could be enacted. Material changes to any of the laws, rules, regulations. or ordinances to which we are subject, new laws or
regulations or material differences in interpretations by courts or governmental authorities could adversely affect our operating
results.
The sale of alcoholic beverages is subject to licensing, control, and regulation by applicable local regulatory agencies. All
licenses are revocable and are not transferable. The agencies involved have full power to limit, condition, suspend or revoke
any license, and any disciplinary action could, and revocation would, have a material adverse effect upon our operations.
Intellectual Property
We develop intellectual property to differentiate our retail casinos, interactive and lottery products from our competitors. Our
brands and technology constitute key business assets. In order to protect our brands, technology and other creative output, we
rely on a combination of trademarks, copyright, patents, trade secrets and contract law to establish and protect our proprietary
rights.
Our core brand in the United States is Bally’s and Bally. We use “Bally’s” in connection with a majority of our land-based
properties. We use variations of “Bally” in connection with our interactive products, including Bally Bet, Bally Sports Live and
Bally Play. The Bally’s and Bally brands are protected by approximately 200 trademark registrations and applications in the US
and foreign jurisdictions. In line with our multi-brand strategy, we register trademarks for brands either directly exploited by us
in the provision of gaming services or for the purpose of licensing to third parties. Following the sale of the Carved-Out
Business in the fourth quarter of 2024, our in-house brands in foreign jurisdictions include Jackpotjoy, Botemania, Vera & John
(in Sweden only) and Bally Bet Sports & Casino. We also operate interactive sites under brand license agreements with third
parties, including the Virgin Games, Rainbow Riches Casino, Double Bubble Bingo and Monopoly Casino brands. In addition,
we hold an exclusive trademark license for Hard Rock in relation to our Hard Rock Biloxi casino. The Hard Rock license
expires in 2027 with an option to renew for two successive ten-year terms.
We create original software code and designs for our interactive gaming, lottery and betting services. Our software code is
primarily protected by copyright and, to a lesser extent, patents. Although our business is not dependent on any one of our
patents or combination of our patents, we file patent applications where we believe it is appropriate to do so. Our Bally’s
Intralot research and development efforts have resulted in 166 granted patents and two additional active patent applications
pending in various stages. We also license patented technology where required for the operation of our business. We protect our
trade secrets and confidential information by nondisclosure agreements and confidentiality clauses.
While we take action to protect our intellectual property rights, there is always a risk that (i) our proprietary rights become
invalidated or unenforceable, (ii) we are unsuccessful in obtaining trademark or patent registrations, (iii) a brand license
agreement is terminated, and (iv) we are unsuccessful in our enforcement efforts and therefore unable to prevent what we
consider to be misuse of our intellectual property assets. The laws of some foreign countries do not protect intellectual property
rights to the same extent as the laws of the United States. Further, third parties may independently develop similar brands and
technologies which would negatively impact the value of our intellectual property.

ITEM 1A.RISK FACTORS
In addition to the other information contained in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, the following risk factors should be
considered carefully in evaluating our business. If any of the following risks actually occur, our business, financial condition
and results of operations could be adversely affected. If this were to happen, the value of our securities, including our common
stock, could decline significantly, and investors could lose all or part of their investment.
Risk Factor Summary
Our business is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including those highlighted in this item in this Annual Report on
Form 10-K. Some of these principal risks include the following:
General Economic Conditions
•Our business is particularly sensitive to reductions in discretionary consumer spending.
Competition
•The gaming industry, including retail casinos and iGaming, is very competitive and increased competition, including
through legislative legalization or expansion of gaming by states in or near where we own facilities or through Native
American gaming facilities, could adversely affect our financial results.
•Portions of our operations are dependent on government contracts, which are generally awarded following lengthy and
competitive government bidding processes and include performance guarantees.
Compliance, Regulatory and Legal Risks
•We are subject to extensive laws, regulation and licensing, and gaming authorities have significant control over our
operations, which could have an adverse effect on our business.
•Failure to comply with the terms of the Regulatory Agreement could result in a breach and could harm our business.
•We are subject to extensive environmental regulation, which creates uncertainty regarding future environmental
expenditures and liabilities.
•We or certain third parties that we rely on may fail to establish and maintain effective and compliant anti‑money
laundering, counter terrorism financing, safer gambling, fraud detection, risk management and other regulatory
policies, procedures and controls.
•Our business is subject to a variety of US and foreign laws, many of which are unsettled and still developing, and
which could subject us to claims or otherwise harm our business across jurisdictions which could have a material
adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.
•Our growth prospects depend on the legal status of real money gaming in various jurisdictions and legalization may
not occur in as many jurisdictions as we expect or may occur at a slower pace than we anticipate which could
adversely affect our future results of operations.
Business Operational Risks
•We are reliant on effective payment processing services from a limited number of providers in each of the markets in
which we operate.
•Our profitability will be dependent, in part, on return to players.
•We extend credit to a portion of our customers, and we may not be able to collect gaming receivables from our credit
customers.
•Declining popularity of games and changes in device preferences of players could have a negative effect on our
business.
•The casino, hotel and hospitality industry is capital intensive and we may not be able to finance development,
expansion and renovation projects, which could put us at a competitive disadvantage.
•We are subject to various construction and development risks in connection with our current and future construction
projects.
•We may invest in or acquire other businesses, and our business may suffer if we are unable to successfully integrate
acquired businesses into our company or otherwise manage the growth associated with multiple acquisitions.
•We face risks associated with growth and acquisitions.
•Negative perceptions and publicity surrounding the lottery industry could lead to increased regulation.
•Our management identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting which could, if not
remediated, result in material misstatements in our consolidated financial statements.
•We may be unable to protect our intellectual property rights.
15
•Our results of operations and financial condition could be adversely affected by the occurrence of natural disasters,
such as hurricanes, or other catastrophic events, including war, terrorism and public health crises such as the
COVID-19 pandemic.
Cybersecurity, Data Privacy and Technology Risks
•We rely on information technology, Internet infrastructure and other systems and platforms, and any failures, errors,
defects or disruptions in our systems or platforms could diminish our brand and reputation, subject us to liability,
disrupt our business, affect our ability to scale our technical infrastructure and adversely affect our operating results
and growth prospects.
•Our business may be harmed by cybersecurity and data privacy incidents.
•We may use AI in our business, and challenges with properly managing its use could result in reputational harm,
competitive harm and legal liability, and could have adverse effects on our business, operating results, and financial
condition.
Financing Risks
•Our debt agreements, the Regulatory Agreement and other future indebtedness contain or may contain restrictive
covenants that may limit our operating flexibility.
•Servicing our indebtedness and funding our other obligations requires a significant amount of cash, and our ability to
generate sufficient cash depends on many factors, some of which will be beyond our control.
Risks Related to our Common Stock
•The market price of our common stock could fluctuate significantly.
•Our largest shareholder owns a majority of our outstanding common stock, which could limit the ability of other
shareholders to influence corporate matters.
•We are a “controlled company” within the meaning of the corporate governance standards of NYSE. As a result, we
qualify for exemptions from certain corporate governance standards and our shareholders do not have the same
protections afforded to shareholders of companies that are subject to such requirements.
•We are not paying dividends and any decision to do so in the future will be at the discretion of our Board.
General Economic Conditions
Our business is particularly sensitive to periodic reductions in discretionary consumer spending.
Our business is particularly sensitive to periodic reductions in discretionary consumer spending. Demand for entertainment and
leisure activities, including gaming, can be affected by changes in the economy and consumer tastes, both of which are difficult
to predict and beyond our control. Unfavorable changes in general economic conditions, including recessions, economic
slowdowns, sustained high levels of unemployment and rising prices or the perception by consumers of weak or weakening
economic conditions, may reduce our users’ disposable income or result in fewer individuals engaging in entertainment and
leisure activities, such as visiting casinos and casino hotel properties, free-to-play games, sports betting, iCasino and online
bingo. A period of sustained inflation, particularly in the US, European Union (“EU”) and UK, could materially impact our
business. The effects of inflation on discretionary consumer spending could result in the reduction of the demand for
entertainment and leisure activities. Moreover, we rely on the strength of regional and local economies in the US for the
performance of each of our properties. As a result, we cannot ensure that demand for our offerings will remain constant.
Adverse developments affecting economies throughout the world including a general tightening of the availability of credit,
increasing energy costs, rising prices, inflation, acts of war or terrorism, natural disasters, declining consumer confidence,
significant declines in the stock market or epidemics, pandemics or other health-related events or widespread illnesses, like the
COVID-19 pandemic, could lead to a reduction in visitors to our properties, including those that stay in our hotels, or
discretionary spending by our customers on entertainment and leisure activities, which could adversely affect our business,
financial condition and results of operations.
Competition
The gaming industry, including retail casinos and iGaming, is very competitive and increased competition, including
through legislative legalization or expansion of gaming by states in or near where we own facilities or through Native
American gaming facilities, could adversely affect our financial results.
We face significant competition in all areas in which we conduct our business. Increased competitive pressures may adversely
affect our ability to continue to attract customers or affect our ability to compete efficiently.
16
Several of our casinos and resorts are in jurisdictions that restrict gaming to certain areas and/or may be affected by state laws
that currently prohibit or restrict gaming operations. We also face the risk that existing casino licensees will expand their
operations and the risk that Native American gaming will continue to grow. Budgetary and other political pressures faced by
state governments could lead to intensified efforts directed at the legalization of gaming in jurisdictions where it is currently
prohibited. The legalization of gaming in such jurisdictions could be an expansion opportunity for our business, or create
competitive pressures, depending on where the legalization occurs and our ability to capitalize on it. Our ability to attract
customers to the existing casinos which we own could be significantly and adversely affected by the legalization or expansion
of gaming in certain jurisdictions and by the development or expansion of Native American casinos in areas where our
customers may visit.
In addition, our competitors may refurbish, rebrand, or expand their casino offerings, which could result in increased
competition. Furthermore, changes in ownership may result in improved quality of our competitors’ facilities, which may make
such facilities more competitive. Certain of our competitors are large gaming companies with greater name recognition,
marketing efforts and financial resources. In some instances, particularly in the case of Native American casinos, our
competitors pay lower taxes or no taxes. These factors create additional challenges for us in competing for customers and
accessing cash flow or financing to fund improvements for our casino and entertainment products that enable us to remain
competitive.
We also compete with other forms of legalized gaming and entertainment such as bingo, pull-tab games, card parlors,
sportsbooks, pari-mutuel or simulcast betting on horse and dog racing, state-sponsored lotteries, instant racing machines, VLTs
(including racetracks that offer VLTs) and video poker terminals and, in the future, we may compete with gaming or
entertainment at other venues. Further competition from online lotteries and other online wagering gaming services, which
allow their customers to wager on a wide variety of sporting events and play Las Vegas-style casino games from home, could
divert customers from the facilities we own and thus adversely affect our business. Such online wagering services are likely to
expand in future years and become more accessible to domestic gamblers as a result of US Department of Justice positions
related to the application of federal laws to intrastate online gaming and initiatives in some states to consider legislation to
legalize intrastate online wagering. The law in this area has been rapidly evolving, and additional legislative developments may
occur at the federal and state levels that would accelerate the proliferation of certain forms of online gaming in the US.
We may also face competition from other gaming facilities which are able to offer sports wagering services (including mobile
sports wagering) following the enactment of applicable legislation. Numerous states that border the states in which we operate
have pending or proposed legislation which would allow for sports betting, each of which could have an adverse effect on our
financial results.
The online gambling industry is highly competitive and we expect more competitors to enter the sector. With several thousand
online gambling sites accessible to potential customers around the world with little product differentiation, there is arguably an
excess of suppliers. Online and offline advertising is widespread, with operators competing for affiliates and customers who are
attracted by sign-up bonuses and other incentives.
Existing and new competitors may also increase marketing spending, including to unprofitable levels, in an attempt to distort
the online gambling market to build market share quickly. Some of our competitors have or will have significantly greater
financial, technical, marketing and sales resources and may be able to respond more quickly to changes in customer needs.
Additionally, these competitors may be able to devote a greater number of resources to the enhancement, promotion and sale of
their games and gaming systems. Our future success is or will be dependent upon our ability to retain our current customers and
to acquire new customers. Failure to do so could result in a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and
results of operations.
Portions of our operations are dependent on government contracts, which are generally awarded following lengthy and
competitive government bidding processes and include performance guarantees.
We routinely engage in lengthy and highly competitive government bidding processes, which have resulted in contracts with
government entities across various jurisdictions. Our contracts contain terms and conditions and performance guarantees that
we must comply with throughout their term. Any delays in project execution could expose us to the risk of financial liabilities,
including the payment of damages and/or increased insurance premiums associated with the performance guarantees, which
could materially adversely affect our business.
17
Compliance, Regulatory and Legal Risks
We are subject to extensive laws, regulation and licensing, and gaming authorities have significant control over our
operations, which could have an adverse effect on our business.
Our ownership and operation of casino gaming, horse racing facilities, sports betting, VLTs and online offerings are subject to
extensive regulation, and regulatory authorities have broad powers with respect to the licensing of these businesses, and may
revoke, suspend, condition, fail to renew or limit our gaming or other licenses, impose substantial fines and take other actions,
each of which poses a significant risk to our business, results of operations and financial condition. We currently hold all
licenses and related approvals necessary to conduct our present operations but must periodically apply to renew many of these
licenses and registrations and have the suitability of certain of our directors, officers and employees renewed. There can be no
assurance that we will be able to obtain such renewals or that we will be able to obtain future approvals that would allow us to
expand our gaming operations. Any failure to maintain or renew existing licenses, registrations, permits or approvals would
have a material adverse effect on us. As we expand our gaming operations in our existing jurisdictions or to new areas, we may
have to meet additional suitability requirements and obtain additional licenses, registrations, permits and approvals from
gaming authorities in these jurisdictions. The approval process can be time-consuming and costly and we cannot be sure that we
will be successful. In addition, the loss of a license in one jurisdiction could trigger the loss of a license or affect our eligibility
for a license in another jurisdiction. Furthermore, if additional gaming laws or regulations are adopted in jurisdictions where we
operate, these regulations could impose additional restrictions or costs that could have a significant adverse effect on us.
Gaming authorities can generally require that any beneficial owner of our securities file an application for a finding of
suitability. If a gaming authority requires a record or beneficial owner of our securities to file a suitability application, the
owner must generally apply for a finding of suitability within 30 days or at an earlier time prescribed by the gaming authority.
The gaming authority has the power to investigate such an owner’s suitability and the owner must pay all costs of the
investigation. If the owner is found unsuitable, then the owner may be required by law to dispose of our securities.
Our officers, directors and key employees are also subject to a variety of regulatory requirements and various licensing and
related approval procedures in the various jurisdictions in which we operate. If any applicable gaming authority were to find
any of our officers, directors or key employees unsuitable for licensing or unsuitable to continue having a relationship with us,
we would have to sever all relationships with that person. Furthermore, the applicable gaming authority may require us to
terminate the employment of any person who refuses to file appropriate applications. Either result could adversely affect our
gaming operations.
Applicable gaming laws and regulations may restrict our ability to issue certain securities, incur debt and undertake other
financing activities. Such transactions would generally require notice and/or approval of applicable gaming authorities, and our
financing counterparties, including lenders, might be subject to various licensing and related approval procedures in the various
jurisdictions in which we conduct gaming operations. Applicable gaming laws further limit our ability to engage in certain
competitive activities and impose requirements relating to the composition of our Board and senior management personnel. If
gaming regulatory authorities were to find any person unsuitable with regard to their relationship to us or any of our
subsidiaries, we would be required to sever our relationship with that person, which could materially adversely affect our
business.
We are subject to numerous laws that may expose us to liabilities or have a significant adverse impact on our operations.
Changes to any such laws could have a material adverse effect on our operations and financial condition.
Our business is subject to a variety of laws, rules, regulations, and ordinances. These laws and regulations include, but are not
limited to, restrictions and conditions concerning alcoholic beverages, environmental matters, employees, currency transactions,
taxation, anti-money laundering measures, vulnerable customer protections, data privacy, zoning and building codes and
marketing and advertising and game design. Such laws and regulations could change or could be interpreted differently in the
future, or new laws and regulations could be enacted. Material changes to any of the laws, rules, regulations or ordinances to
which we are subject, new laws or regulations or material differences in interpretations by courts or governmental authorities
could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Many of our employees, especially those that interact with our customers, receive a base salary or wage that is established by
applicable laws that establish a minimum hourly wage that is, in turn, supplemented through tips and gratuities from customers.
From time to time, lawmakers have increased the minimum wage. It is difficult to predict when such increases may take place.
Any such change to the minimum wage could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of
operations.
18
The sale of alcoholic beverages is a highly regulated and taxed business. In the US, federal, state and local laws and regulations
govern the production and distribution of alcoholic beverages, including permitting, licensing, trade practices, labeling,
advertising, marketing, distributor relationships and related matters. Federal, state and local governmental entities also levy
various taxes, license fees and other similar charges and may require bonds to ensure compliance with applicable laws and
regulations. Failure to comply with applicable federal, state or local laws and regulations could result in higher taxes, penalties,
fees and suspension or revocation of permits, licenses or approvals and could have a material adverse effect on our business,
financial condition and results of operations. From time to time, local and state lawmakers, as well as special interest groups,
have proposed legislation that would increase the federal and/or state excise tax on alcoholic beverages or certain types of
alcoholic beverages. If federal or state excise taxes are increased, we may have to raise prices to maintain our current profit
margins. Higher taxes may reduce overall demand for alcoholic beverages, thus negatively impacting sales of our alcoholic
beverages at our properties. Further federal or state regulation may be forthcoming that could further restrict the distribution and
sale of alcohol products. Any material increases in taxes or fees or the adoption of additional taxes, fees or regulations could
have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Legislation in various forms to ban or substantially curtail indoor tobacco smoking in public places have been enacted or
introduced in many jurisdictions, including some of the jurisdictions in which we operate. We believe these smoking
restrictions can significantly impact business volumes. If additional smoking restrictions are enacted within jurisdictions where
we operate or seek to do business, our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows could be adversely affected.
In addition, each restaurant we operate must obtain a food service license from local authorities. Failure to comply with such
regulations could cause our licenses to be revoked or our related restaurant business or businesses to be forced to cease
operations. Moreover, state liquor laws may prevent the expansion of restaurant operations into certain markets.
Failure to comply with the terms of the Regulatory Agreement could result in a breach and could harm our business.
We are currently a party to the Regulatory Agreement with Rhode Island regulatory agencies. The Regulatory Agreement
imposes certain affirmative and negative covenants on us. For more detail on the Regulatory Agreement see the section entitled
“Governmental Gaming Regulation” in “Item I. Business” of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. A failure to comply with the
provisions in the Regulatory Agreement could subject us to injunctive or monetary relief, payments to the Rhode Island
regulatory agencies and ultimately the revocation or suspension of our licenses to operate in Rhode Island. Any such remedy
could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. Among other things, the Regulatory
Agreement prohibits us and our subsidiaries from owning, operating, managing or providing gaming specific goods and
services to any gaming facilities in Rhode Island (other than Bally’s Twin River and Bally’s Tiverton), Massachusetts,
Connecticut or New Hampshire, which may adversely affect our growth and market opportunity in those states.
We are subject to extensive environmental regulation, which creates uncertainty regarding future environmental
expenditures and liabilities.
We are subject to various environmental laws and regulations that govern activities that may have adverse environmental
effects, such as discharges to air and water, as well as the management and disposal of solid, animal and hazardous wastes and
exposure to hazardous materials. These laws and regulations, which are complex and subject to change, include US
Environmental Protection Agency regulations. In addition, our horse racing facility in Colorado is subject to state laws and
regulations that address the impacts of manure and wastewater generated by concentrated animal feeding operations (“CAFO”)
on water quality, including storm water discharges. CAFO regulations include permit requirements and water quality discharge
standards. Enforcement of CAFO regulations has been receiving increased governmental attention. Compliance with these and
other environmental laws can, in some circumstances, require significant capital expenditures. For example, we may incur
future costs under existing and new laws and regulations pertaining to storm water and wastewater management at our
racetracks. Moreover, violations can result in significant penalties and, in some instances, interruption or cessation of
operations.
We are also subject to laws and regulations that create liability and cleanup responsibility for releases of regulated materials
into the environment. Certain of these laws and regulations impose strict, and under certain circumstances joint and several,
liability on the current or previous owner or operator of property for the costs of remediating regulated materials on or
emanating from our property. The costs of investigation, remediation or removal of those substances may be substantial. The
presence of, or failure to remediate properly, such materials may adversely affect the ability to sell or rent such property or to
borrow funds using such property as collateral. Additionally, as an owner or manager of real property, we could be subject to
claims by third parties based on damages and costs resulting from environmental contamination at or emanating from third-
party sites. These laws typically impose clean-up responsibility and liability without regard to whether the owner or manager
knew of or caused the presence of the contaminants and the liability under those laws has been interpreted to be joint and
several unless the harm is divisible and there is a reasonable basis for allocation of the responsibility. In addition, environmental
requirements address the impacts of development on wetlands.
19
The possibility exists that contamination, as yet unknown, may exist on our properties. There can be no assurance that we will
not incur expenditures for environmental investigations or remediation in the future.
We are or may become involved in legal proceedings that, if adversely adjudicated or settled, could impact our business and
financial condition.
From time to time, we are named in lawsuits or other legal proceedings relating to our businesses. In particular, the nature of
our business subjects us to the risk of lawsuits filed by customers, past and present employees, shareholders, competitors,
business partners and others in the ordinary course of business. As with all legal proceedings, no assurances can be given as to
the outcome of these matters. Moreover, legal proceedings can be expensive and time consuming, and we may not be successful
in defending or prosecuting these lawsuits, which could result in settlements or damages that could adversely affect our
business, financial condition and results of operations.
We or certain third parties that we rely on may fail to establish and maintain effective and compliant anti-money laundering
(“AML”), counter terrorism financing, safer gambling, fraud detection, risk management and other regulatory policies,
procedures and controls.
We operate under extremely stringent regulatory requirements in relation to our land-based casinos and online operations,
particularly so in both the United States and the United Kingdom. Regulatory authorities including US agencies and the Great
Britain Gambling Commission (“GBGC”) have increased scrutiny, with the GBGC’s 2025 enforcement priorities shaped by the
2023 White Paper and driven by automation, real‑time monitoring, and specific customer thresholds. We handle significant
amounts of cash in our land-based operations and see a high volume of digital money transactions in our online operations and
are subject to various reporting and AML laws and regulations. Recently, US governmental authorities and the GBGC, have
evidenced an increased focus on compliance with AML laws and regulations in the gaming industry, with the GBGC having
completed a series of high-profile enforcement action against both online operators and land-based casinos for AML failures. In
the UK, safer gambling obligations require operators to identify and act upon indicators of harm in a timely manner, proactively
monitor at risk customers, and adhere to new technical standards. Any violation of AML laws or regulations or of safer
gambling requirements could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Internal control policies and procedures and employee training and compliance programs that we have implemented to deter
prohibited practices may not be effective in prohibiting our customers, employees, contractors or agents from violating or
circumventing our policies and the law. If we or our employees or agents fail to comply with applicable laws or our policies
governing our operations, we may face investigations, prosecutions and other legal proceedings and actions which could result
in fines, license restrictions, civil penalties, administrative remedies and criminal sanctions. Any such government
investigations, prosecutions or other legal proceedings or actions could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial
condition and results of operations.
The regulatory framework which governs our business, and its interpretation, may be subject to change which we may fail to
anticipate and/or respond to.
Online and land-based gambling operators licensed in the UK and other jurisdictions are obliged to establish and maintain
compliant AML, anti-terrorism, safer gambling, fraud detection, risk management and other regulatory policies, procedures and
controls to mitigate and effectively manage these risks. In the event that they fail to do so, they may be subject to enforcement
action by gambling regulators or other governmental agencies or private action by affected third parties. In the event of a
breach, a range of sanctions may be imposed, including financial penalties or regulatory settlements, public warnings, the
imposition of special operating conditions or license conditions and the suspension or revocation of gambling licenses.
In addition, there is a risk that increased AML regulatory and safer gambling measures in the UK will prove to be challenging
for us. Financial vulnerability checks have been introduced by the GBGC on customers with £150 net deposits over 30 rolling
days based on publicly available data regarding customers. Further financial risk assessments are being considered by the
GBGC to assess the risk of harm of gambling in the context of high-spending remote gambling customers. If we are required to
conduct further financial risk checks on our highest value customers based on non-public information, some may be unwilling
to provide the additional information and/or documentation to ascertain their sources of wealth, the affordability of their leisure
spending with us or their risk of gambling related harm or vulnerability, and to continue to verify such information.
20
We hold licenses issued by the GBGC. The holders of such licenses are bound to meet stringent compliance requirements
relating to matters such as AML, safer gambling, data protection, advertising and consumer rights issues. Compliance with such
requirements is incorporated into the relevant licenses as a licensing condition (or similar) with a corresponding requirement for
us to comply with various requirements. In September 2022, the GBGC began the implementation of updated social
responsibility licensing conditions. All licensees must now have in place effective systems and processes to monitor customer
activity to identify harm or potential harm associated with gambling, from the point when an account is opened. The indicators
licensees must use to identify harm or potential harm associated with gambling include customer spend, patterns of spend, time
spent gambling, gambling behavior indicators, customer-led contact, use of gambling management tools and account indicators.
These requirements may significantly impact our business if we are unable to establish the affordability of customers on the
basis of available evidence and/or because customers are unwilling to provide the information requested.
The failure by any third-party providers or any relevant entity within the Company to establish and maintain effective and
compliant AML, counter terrorism, anti-bribery, fraud detection, regulatory compliance and risk management processes may
have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
In carrying out its functions, the GBGC is under a statutory duty to ensure that license holders are operating their businesses in
ways that are reasonably consistent with the licensing objectives set out in the Gambling Act 2005 (currently the primary
legislation governing the licensing and regulation of gambling in Great Britain) (the “Gambling Act”), which are: (1)
preventing gambling from being a source of (or associated with) crime or disorder, or being used to support crime; (2) ensuring
that gambling is conducted in a fair and open way; and (3) protecting children and other vulnerable people from being harmed
or exploited by gambling.
While the objectives of regulation may remain largely stable, the methods that operators are required to employ to meet those
objectives, and the interpretation of those objections by the regulator, are in a state of constant evolution and development. We
must respond adequately to the challenges this presents. If we are found to be in breach of our obligation to comply with such
licensing requirements, then the GBGC may impose a financial penalty on us or impose other sanctions, including removing or
imposing conditions on the relevant gambling licenses. Such action could have a material adverse effect on our financial
performance.
New legislation governing the online gaming industry may be introduced in the UK which limits or restricts our operating
model in that mark et.
In December 2020, the UK government commenced a review of the Gambling Act. As a result of this review, in April 2023 the
UK government issued proposals to amend the Gambling Act, and these proposals are subject to a series of public
consultations. The UK government proposals are structured around six main themes: (1) online player protections regarding
players and products; (2) marketing and advertising; (3) the powers of the GBGC; (4) dispute resolution and consumer redress;
(5) children and young adults; and (6) land-based gambling. Changes have been introduced, including direct marketing
restrictions on communications with remote gambling customers, new remote game design requirements, financial vulnerability
checks, maximum stake limits, RTS security requirements and provisions on customer deposit prompts and reviews. A statutory
levy to fund research, prevention and treatment of gambling harm has been implemented in place of the previous voluntary
system. There is a risk that the introduction of more stringent, safer gambling and/or AML regulatory measures in the UK may
prove operationally onerous for us. Moreover, the potential for the introduction of further stake, speed and prize limits and the
introduction of deposit, loss and spend limits may operate to impact our financial performance and reduce the long-term growth
opportunities for us in the UK.
The United Kingdom gambling market is undergoing significant regulatory and fiscal changes that may materially impact the
profitability and operations of operators licensed by GBGC. The UK government has implemented major increases in gambling
tax revenues, resulting in a more restrictive and costly operating environment. Effective from April 1, 2026, the Remote
Gaming Duty (RGD) applicable to online gaming revenues, including online slots and casino games, increased from 21% to
40%. Effective from April 1, 2027, the General Betting Duty for remote betting will increase from 15% to 25%, other than for
remote bets on UK horse racing which will remain unchanged. These taxation increases materially raise the tax burden on
remote gambling operators and may significantly reduce operating margins and cash flows generated from UK online gaming
activities. There can be no assurance that operators will be able to offset these increased costs through pricing, operational
efficiencies, or other measures. As a result, these regulatory and fiscal developments could materially and adversely affect our
financial performance.
21
Our business is subject to a variety of US and foreign laws, many of which are unsettled and still developing, and which
could subject us to claims or otherwise harm our business across jurisdictions. Any change in existing regulations or their
interpretation, or the regulatory or prosecutorial climate applicable to our products and services, or changes in tax rules and
regulations or interpretation thereof related to our products and services, could adversely impact our ability to operate our
business as currently conducted or as we seek to operate in the future, which could have a material adverse effect on our
financial condition and results of operations.
We are generally subject to laws and regulations relating to iGaming in the jurisdictions in which we conduct business, as well
as the general laws and regulations that apply to all e-commerce businesses, such as those related to privacy and personal
information, tax and consumer protection. These laws and regulations vary by jurisdiction, and future legislative and regulatory
action, court decisions or other governmental action, which may be affected by, among other things, political pressures,
attitudes and climates, as well as personal biases, may have a material impact on our operations and financial results. Some
jurisdictions have introduced regulations attempting to restrict or prohibit online gaming, while others have taken the position
that online gaming should be licensed and regulated and have adopted or are in the process of considering legislation and
regulations to enable that to happen. The regulatory environment in any particular jurisdiction may change in the future and any
such change could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.
Future legislative and regulatory action, and court decisions or other governmental action, may have a material impact on our
operations and financial results. Governmental authorities could view us as having violated local laws, despite our efforts to
obtain all applicable licenses or approvals. There is also risk that civil and criminal proceedings, including class actions brought
by or on behalf of prosecutors or public entities or incumbent monopoly providers, or private individuals, could be initiated
against us, Internet service providers, credit card and other payment processors in the iGaming industry. Such potential
proceedings could involve substantial litigation expense, penalties, fines, seizure of assets, injunctions or other restrictions
being imposed upon our licensees or other business partners, while diverting the attention of key executives. Such proceedings
could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations, as well as impact our
reputation.
Our growth prospects depend on the legal status of real money gaming in various jurisdictions and legalization may not
occur in as many jurisdictions as we expect, or may occur at a slower pace than we anticipate. Additionally, even if
jurisdictions legalize real money gaming, this may be accompanied by legislative or regulatory restrictions and/or taxes that
make it impracticable or less attractive to operate in those jurisdictions, or the process of implementing regulations or
securing the necessary licenses to operate in a particular jurisdiction may take longer than we anticipate, which could
adversely affect our future results of operations and make it more difficult to meet our expectations for financial
performance.
Several jurisdictions have legalized or are currently evaluating the legalization of real money gaming, and our business,
financial condition, results of operations and business prospects are significantly dependent upon the status of legalization in
these jurisdictions. Our business plan is partially based upon the legalization of real money gaming in additional jurisdictions
and the legalization may not occur as anticipated. Additionally, if a large number of additional jurisdictions enact real money
gaming legislation and we are unable to obtain, or are otherwise delayed in obtaining, the necessary licenses to operate iGaming
websites in jurisdictions where such games are legalized, our future growth in iGaming could be materially impaired.
As we enter new jurisdictions, governments may legalize real money gaming in a manner that is unfavorable to us. As a result,
we may encounter legal, regulatory and political challenges that are difficult or impossible to foresee and which could result in
an unforeseen adverse impact on planned revenues or costs associated with the new opportunity. Jurisdictions also impose
substantial tax rates on iGaming revenue. Tax rates, whether federal- or state-based, that are higher than we expect will make it
more costly and less desirable for us to launch in a given jurisdiction, while tax increases in any of our existing jurisdictions
may adversely impact profitability.
Therefore, even in cases in which a jurisdiction purports to license and regulate iGaming, the licensing and regulatory regimes
can vary considerably in terms of business-friendliness, and at times may be intended to provide incumbent operators with
advantages over new licensees. Therefore, some “liberalized” regulatory regimes are considerably more economically viable
than others.
22
We derive revenues from players located in jurisdictions in which we do not hold a l icense.
In certain jurisdictions, online gambling is either not regulated at all, is subject to very limited regulation or its legality is
unclear. These jurisdictions are commonly referred to in the gaming industry as “unregulated jurisdictions” as it is not possible
to obtain a license. Certain of our products are made available to players in unregulated jurisdictions. The relevant transactions
in such unregulated jurisdictions and the associated player relationships that underpin them are generally regulated by “point of
supply” gambling regimes. We hold a point-of-supply license in Gibraltar and therefore, transactions are in fact heavily
regulated but are not themselves regulated in the jurisdiction within which the player is ultimately located.
Operators within the online gambling industry, including Bally’s, have commonly taken a risk-based approach when supplying
their online gambling services into jurisdictions in which it is not possible to obtain a gambling license. In these circumstances,
online gambling operators may justify their remote supply of gambling services for a number of reasons, including a “country
of origin” basis which asserts that it is lawful to supply online gambling services remotely from a jurisdiction in which a
gambling license is held in another jurisdiction, unless there is something within the laws of that second jurisdiction that
explicitly outlaws such provision and explicitly applies to such inward supply emanating from outside its borders.
There is a risk that such jurisdictions may enact regulations relating to online real money gaming and that we may be required
to register our activities or obtain licenses (or obtain further registrations or licenses, as applicable), pay taxes, royalties or fees
or that the operation of online gambling businesses in such jurisdictions may be prohibited entirely. The implementation of
additional licensing or regulatory requirements, prohibitions or payments in such jurisdictions could have an adverse effect on
the viability of our revenue, operations, business or financial performance. Where we or our partners fail to obtain the necessary
registrations or licenses, make the necessary payments or operate in a jurisdiction where online gambling is deemed to be or
becomes prohibited, we or our partners may be subject to investigation, penalties or sanctions or forced to discontinue
operations entirely in relation to that jurisdiction. Any such actions may also have an adverse impact on the way our regulators
regulate us in the jurisdictions in which we hold licenses.
Certain of our technology providers, payment processing partners or other suppliers of content or services (collectively,
“Infrastructure Services”) may cease to provide, or limit the availability of, such Infrastructure Services to the extent we derive
revenue from, or makes such Infrastructure Services available to customers in, unregulated jurisdictions. There is no assurance
that we would be able to identify suitable or economical replacements if such Infrastructure Services become unavailable.
There is also a risk that civil and criminal proceedings, including class actions brought by or on behalf of prosecutors or public
entities, incumbent monopoly providers or private individuals, could be initiated against us or providers of our Infrastructure
Services in unregulated jurisdictions. Such potential proceedings could assert that online gambling services have not been
lawfully supplied into the domestic market and could involve substantial litigation expense, penalties, fines, seizure of assets,
injunctions or other restrictions being imposed on us or our business partners and may divert the attention of our key
executives. If we become subject to any such investigations, proceedings and/or penalties in one jurisdiction, this may lead to
investigations, proceedings and/or penalties arising in other jurisdictions in which we operate and/or hold a license. Such
investigations, proceedings and/or penalties could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results
of operations, as well as our reputation.
We are exposed to exchange rate risks.
Foreign exchange risk arises when individual group entities enter into transactions denominated in a currency other than their
functional currency. Our policy is, where possible, to allow our entities to settle liabilities denominated in their functional
currency with the cash generated from their own operations in that currency. Where our entities have liabilities denominated in
a currency other than their functional currency (and have insufficient reserves of that currency to settle them), cash already
denominated in that currency will, where possible, be transferred from elsewhere within Bally’s. Apart from these particular
cash flows, we aim to fund expenses and investments in the respective currency and to manage foreign exchange risk at a local
level by matching the currency in which revenue is generated and expenses are incurred, as well as by matching the currency of
our debt structure with the currency that cash is generated in. However, no assurance can be given that these policies will
deliver all, or substantially all, of the expected benefits.
A vast majority of the revenues currently generated by Gamesys, our wholly owned subsidiary, are from the UK and are
conducted in British Pound Sterling (“GBP”) and are therefore susceptible to any movements in exchange rates between GBP
and US Dollars (“USD”). Any exchange rate risk may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results
of operations.
23
Our substantial activities in foreign jurisdictions may be affected by factors outside of our control.
A portion of our operations are conducted in non-US jurisdictions. As such, our operations may be adversely affected by
changes in foreign government policies and legislation (including gambling legislation) or social instability and other factors
that are not within our control, including renegotiation or nullification of existing contracts or licenses, changes in gambling
policies, regulatory requirements or the personnel administering them, currency fluctuations and devaluations, exchange
controls, economic sanctions, tax increases, retroactive tax claims, changes in taxation policies, risk of terrorist activities,
revolution, border disputes, implementation of tariffs and other trade barriers and protectionist practices, volatility of financial
markets and fluctuations in foreign exchange rates, difficulties in the protection of intellectual property, labor disputes and other
risks arising out of foreign governmental sovereignty over the areas in which operations are conducted. Our operations may
also be adversely affected by laws and policies of such foreign jurisdictions affecting foreign trade, taxation and investment.
Accordingly, our activities in foreign jurisdictions could be substantially affected by factors beyond our control, any of which
could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
In the event of a dispute arising in connection with operations in a foreign jurisdiction where we conduct business, we may be
subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of foreign courts or may not be successful in subjecting foreign persons to the jurisdictions
of the courts of the US or enforcing US judgments in such other jurisdictions. We may also be hindered or prevented from
enforcing their rights with respect to a governmental instrumentality because of the doctrine of sovereign immunity.
We may also enter into agreements and conduct activities outside of the jurisdictions in which we currently carry on business,
which expansion may present challenges and risks as a result of the factors described above that we have not faced in the past,
any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Our activities are affected by the General Data Protection Regulation, as implemented in each of the UK and the EU
(collectively, “GDPR”).
We are required to comply with the GDPR to the extent that we either: (1) have customers located in the UK and the EU or (2)
conduct the processing of personal data in the UK and the EU. The impact of GDPR is particularly relevant to our customer
data, marketing activities, information security systems, and associated procedures. The GDPR and associated e-privacy laws
impose constraints on the ability of a data controller to profile and market to customers. Data subjects have the right to object to
a controller processing their data in certain circumstances, including the right to object to their data being processed for the
purposes of direct marketing. Controllers of personal data are required to maintain written records as to how they comply with
GDPR and provide more detailed information to data subjects in relation to how their data is being processed. In addition,
updated e-privacy laws are under consideration in the EU to update the legislative rules applicable to digital and online data
processing and to align e-privacy laws to GDPR. The GBGC has separately introduced limitations on the use of personal data
by holders of operating licenses, particularly in relation to direct marketing.
The GDPR also increased the level of fines which may be imposed for a breach of data protection laws, with the maximum fine
(in the most serious cases of a breach of GDPR) being the higher of €20 million (£17.5 million for the UK) or four percent of
annual worldwide turnover. In certain instances, we could be held responsible for breaches committed by the third-party service
providers which we use or by other third parties with whom we share personal data.
Many of the obligations imposed on controllers by GDPR are expressed as high-level principles, such as the obligation to act
fairly with respect to the processing of personal data. The manner in which the data regulators and courts will interpret and
apply GDPR is and will continue to evolve over time. In addition, as a result of Brexit, the application of GDPR in the UK and
the EU will increasingly diverge, posing even greater compliance challenges for businesses operating in these jurisdictions.
These procedures and policies continually affect our business by constraining our data processing activities and increasing our
operational and compliance costs. Additional updates to these policies and procedures and associated operational changes may
be required and costs incurred to comply with updates to e-privacy laws.
If our or any third-party service providers’ data processing activities breach GDPR (or associated e-privacy laws), then we
could, whether as a result of a failure to implement adequate policies and procedures or otherwise, face significant fines and/or
the revocation of existing licenses and/or the refusal of new applications for licenses, as well customer claims. class actions and
reputational damage. The resultant losses suffered could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results
of operations. There can be no assurances that we would be able to recoup such losses, whether in whole or in part, from our
third-party service providers or insurers.
24
Business Operational Risks
We will be reliant on effective payment processing services from a limited number of providers in each of the markets in
which we operate.
The provision of convenient, trusted, fast and effective payment processing services to our customers and potential customers is
critical to our business. If there is any deterioration in the quality of the payment processing services provided to these
customers or any interruption to those services (including with respect to system intrusions, unauthorized access or
manipulation), or if such services are only available at an increased cost to us or our customers or are terminated and no timely
and comparable replacement services are found, our customers and potential customers may be deterred from using our
products. In addition, our inability to secure payment processing services in markets into which we intend to expand may
seriously impair our growth opportunities and strategies. Any of these occurrences may have a material adverse effect on our
business, financial condition and results of operations.
Furthermore, a limited number of banks and credit card companies process online gambling related payments as a matter of
internal policy and any capacity to accept such payments may be limited by the regulatory regime of a given jurisdiction. The
introduction of legislation or regulations restricting financial transactions with online gambling operators, other prohibitions or
restrictions on the use of credit cards and other banking instruments for online gambling transactions may restrict our ability to
accept payments from our customers. These restrictions may be imposed as a result of concerns related to fraud, payment
processing, AML or other issues related to the provision of online gambling services. A number of issuing banks or credit card
companies may from time to time reject payments to us that are attempted to be made by our customers. Should such
restrictions and rejections become more prevalent, or any other restriction on payment processing be introduced, gambling
activity by our customers could be adversely affected, which in turn could have a material adverse effect on our business,
financial condition and results of operations.
In addition, we are subject to the risk of credit card chargebacks, which may also result in possible penalties. A chargeback is a
credit card originated deposit transaction to a player account with an operator that is later reversed or repudiated. The risk of
such chargeback transactions is greater in respect of certain markets and certain payment methods. We recognize revenue upon
the first loss of the player on amounts tendered, and any credit card chargebacks are then deducted from their revenues. Even
though security measures are in place, high rates of credit card chargebacks could result in credit card associations levying
additional costs and fines or withdrawing their service and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial
condition and results of operations.
Our VLTs and table games hold percentages may fluctuate.
The gaming industry is characterized by an element of chance and our casino guests’ winnings depend on a variety of factors,
some of which are beyond our control. In addition to the element of chance, hold percentages (the ratio of net win to total
amount wagered) are affected by other factors, including players’ skill and experience, the mix of games played, the financial
resources of players, the volume of bets placed and the amount of time played. The variability of our hold percentages has the
potential to adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Our profitability will be dependent, in part, on return to players.
The revenue from certain of our gaming products depends on the outcome of random number generators built into the gaming
software running the games made available to customers. Return to player is measured by dividing the amount of real money
won by players on a particular game by the total real money wagers over a particular period on that game. An increasing return
to player may negatively affect revenue as it represents a larger amount of money being won by players. Return to player is
driven by the overall random number generator outcome, the mechanics of different games and jackpot winnings. Each game
utilizes a random number generating engine; however, generally the return to player fluctuates in the short-term based on large
wins or jackpots or a large share of wagers made for higher-payout games. To the extent we are unable to set, or fail to obtain, a
favorable return to player in our (or a third-party supplier’s) gambling software which maximizes revenue, it could have a
material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
25
The success, including win or hold rates, of existing or future sports betting and iGaming products depends on a variety of
factors and is not completely controlled by us.
The sports betting and iGaming industries are characterized by an element of chance. Accordingly, we employ theoretical win
rates to estimate what a certain type of sports bet or iGame, on average, will win or lose in the long run. Net win is impacted by
variations in the hold percentages, or actual outcomes, on our iGames and sports betting we offer to our users. We use the hold
percentages as an indicator of an iGame’s or sports bet’s performance against its expected outcome. Although each iGame or
sports bet generally performs within a defined statistical range of outcomes, actual outcomes may vary for any given period. In
addition to the element of chance, win rates (hold percentages) may also (depending on the game involved) be affected by the
spread of limits and factors that are beyond our control, such as a user’s skill, experience and behavior, the mix of games
played, the financial resources of users, the volume of bets placed and the amount of time spent gambling. As a result of the
variability in these factors, the actual win rates on our online iGames and sports bets may differ from the theoretical win rates
we have estimated and could result in the winnings of our iGame’s or sports bet’s users exceeding those anticipated. The
variability of win rates (hold rates) also have the potential to negatively impact our financial condition, results of operations and
cash flows.
Our success also depends in part on our ability to anticipate and satisfy user preferences in a timely manner. As we will operate
in a dynamic environment characterized by rapidly changing industry and legal standards, our products will be subject to
changing consumer preferences that cannot be predicted with certainty. We will need to continually introduce new offerings
and identify future product offerings that complement our existing platforms, respond to our users’ needs and improve and
enhance our existing platforms to maintain or increase our user engagement and growth of our business. We may not be able to
compete effectively unless our product selection keeps up with trends in the digital sports entertainment and gaming industries
in which we compete, or trends in new gaming products.
We extend credit to a portion of our customers, and we may not be able to collect gaming receivables from our credit
customers.
We conduct our gaming activities on a credit and cash basis at many of our properties. Any such credit we extend is unsecured.
Table game players typically are extended more credit than slot players, and high-stakes players typically are extended more
credit than customers who tend to wager lower amounts. High-end gaming is more volatile than other forms of gaming, and
variances in win-loss results attributable to high-end gaming may have a significant positive or negative impact on cash flow
and earnings in a particular period. We extend credit to those customers whose level of play and financial resources warrant, in
the opinion of management, an extension of credit. These large receivables could have a significant impact on our results of
operations if deemed uncollectible. Gaming debts evidenced by a credit instrument, including what is commonly referred to as a
“marker,” and judgments on gaming debts are enforceable under the current laws of the jurisdictions in which we allow play on
a credit basis, and judgments on gaming debts in such jurisdictions are enforceable in all US states under the Full Faith and
Credit Clause of the US Constitution; however, other jurisdictions may determine that enforcement of gaming debts is against
public policy. Although courts of some foreign nations will enforce gaming debts directly and the assets in the US of foreign
debtors may be reached to satisfy a judgment, judgments on gaming debts from US courts are not binding on the courts of many
foreign nations.
Declining popularity of games and changes in device preferences of players could have a negative effect on our business.
Revenue from online games tends to decline over time after reaching a peak of popularity and player usage. The speed of this
decline is referred to as the decay rate of a game. As a result of this natural decline in the life cycle of our products, our business
depends on our ability and the ability of our third-party partners to consistently and timely launch new games across multiple
platforms and devices that achieve significant popularity. Our ability to successfully launch, sustain and expand games as
applicable, largely will depend on our ability to, amongst other things: (1) anticipate and effectively respond to changing game
player interests and preferences; (2) anticipate or respond to changes in the competitive landscape; (3) develop, sustain and
expand games that are fun, interesting and compelling to play; (4) minimize launch delays and cost overruns on new games; (5)
minimize downtime and other technical difficulties; (6) acquire leading technology and high quality personnel; and (7) comply
with constraints on game design and/or functionality imposed by regulators. There is a risk that we may not launch any new
games according to schedule, or that those games do not attract and retain a significant number of players, which could have a
negative effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Furthermore, more individuals are using non-PC/laptop devices to access the internet and versions of our technology developed
for these devices may not be widely adopted by users of such devices. If we are unable to attract and retain a substantial number
of alternative device users to our gambling services or if we are slow to develop products and technologies that are more
compatible with non-PC/laptop communications devices relative to our competitors, we may fail to capture a significant share
of an increasingly important portion of the market for online gambling services.
26
In addition to offering popular new games, we must extend the life of the existing games which we make available to users, in
particular the most successful games. While it is difficult to predict when revenues from any such existing games will begin to
decline, for a game to remain popular, we must constantly enhance, expand or upgrade the relevant game with new features that
players find attractive. There is a risk that we may not be successful in enhancing, expanding or upgrading our current games or
any new games in the future and, in addition, regulators may introduce new rules that limit functionality within existing games.
Should we not succeed in sufficiently offsetting the effects of declining popularity in the games we make available, this may
have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
The casino, hotel and hospitality industry is capital intensive and we may not be able to finance development, expansion and
renovation projects, which could put us at a competitive disadvantage.
Our casino and hotel properties have an ongoing need for renovations and other capital improvements to remain competitive,
including room refurbishments, amenity upgrades and replacement, from time to time, of furniture, fixtures and equipment. We
may also need to make capital expenditures to comply with applicable laws and regulations. Construction projects, such as our
construction of the permanent casino in Chicago, entail significant risks, which can substantially increase costs or delay
completion of a project. Such risks include shortages of materials or skilled labor, unforeseen engineering, environmental or
geological problems, work stoppages, weather interference and unanticipated cost increases. Most of these factors are beyond
our control. In addition, difficulties or delays in obtaining any of the requisite licenses, permits or authorizations from
regulatory authorities can increase the cost or delay the completion of an expansion or development. Significant budget
overruns or delays with respect to expansion and development projects could adversely affect our business and results of
operations.
Renovations and other capital improvements of casino properties in particular require significant capital expenditures. In
addition, any such renovations and capital improvements usually generate little or no cash flow until the projects are completed.
We may not be able to fund such projects solely from cash provided from operating activities. Consequently, we may have to
rely upon the availability of debt or equity capital to fund renovations and capital improvements, and our ability to carry them
out will be limited if we cannot obtain satisfactory debt or equity financing, which will depend on, among other things, market
conditions. We cannot assure you that we will be able to obtain additional equity or debt financing on favorable terms or at all.
Our failure to renovate and maintain gaming and entertainment venues from time to time may put us at a competitive
disadvantage to gaming and entertainment venues offering more modern and better maintained facilities, which could adversely
affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We are subject to various construction and development risks in connection with our current and future construction
projects.
Our business is subject to various construction and development risks in connection with construction projects, such as our
construction of the permanent casino in Chicago, the planned development at the former Tropicana Las Vegas and our planned
Bally’s Bronx project. Construction and development projects are often developed in multiple stages involving commercial and
governmental negotiations, site planning, due diligence, permit requests, environmental impact studies, permit applications and
review, marine logistics planning and transportation and end-user delivery logistics, each of which requires significant effort
and dedication to complete. Projects of this type are subject to a number of risks, including, among others:
•engineering, environmental or geological problems;
•shortages or delays in the delivery of equipment and supplies;
•government or regulatory approvals, permits or other authorizations;
•failure to meet technical specifications or adjustments being required based on testing or commissioning;
•construction accidents that could result in personal injury or loss of life;
•lack of adequate and qualified personnel to execute our current and future construction projects;
•weather interference;
•delays in removing current tenants from the proposed sites; and
•potential labor shortages, work stoppages or labor union disputes.
Furthermore, because of the nature of our business, we are dependent on numerous third parties, including local, state and
federal governmental entities that are required to certificate and license our facilities. Delays from such third parties or
governmental entities could prevent us from successfully executing our current and future construction projects. In addition, as
a builder of gaming facilities, we expect to face an intense regulatory process and heightened political pressure to finalize our
construction projects in a timely manner, which subjects us to risks associated with changes in the political views and structure,
government representatives, new regulations, regulatory reviews, employment laws and diligence requirements. Each of these
could make it more difficult, time-consuming and expensive to develop our current and future construction projects.
27
The occurrence of any one of these factors, whatever the cause, could result in unforeseen delays or cost overruns. Delays in the
development beyond our estimated timelines, or amendments or change orders to our construction contracts, could result in
increases to our development costs beyond our original estimates, which could require us to obtain additional financing or
funding and could make our current and future construction projects less profitable than originally estimated or possibly not
profitable at all. Further, any such delays could cause a delay in the receipt of any anticipated revenues. We have experienced
time delays and cost overruns in the construction and development of construction projects in the past as a result of the
occurrence of various of the above factors, and no assurance can be given that we will not experience in the future similar
events, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results, cash flows and liquidity.
We may invest in or acquire other businesses, and our business may suffer if we are unable to successfully integrate
acquired businesses into our company or otherwise manage the growth associated with multiple acquisitions.
Our completed or any future acquisitions, may not enhance our financial performance. Our ability to achieve the expected
benefits of any acquisitions will depend on, among other things, our ability to effectively translate our strategies into revenue,
our ability to retain and assimilate the acquired businesses’ employees, our ability to retain existing customers and suppliers on
terms similar to, or better than, those in place with the acquired businesses, our ability to attract new customers, the adequacy of
our implementation plans, our ability to maintain our financial and internal controls and systems as we expand our operations,
the ability of our management to oversee and operate effectively the combined operations and our ability to achieve desired
operating efficiencies and revenue goals. The integration of the businesses that we acquire might also cause us to incur costs
that are unforeseen or that exceed our estimates, which would lower our future earnings and would prevent us from realizing
the expected benefits of such acquisitions. In some cases, the services provided by the sellers are critical to the ongoing efficient
operation of the properties and may involve costly payments from us to the provider of the services. If the provision of these
services by the sellers is disrupted or given insufficient attention by the sellers, our ability to operate the properties may be
negatively impacted until such time as we are able to take full control over the services. Moreover, we must pay the sellers for
these services and the costs to us for these services may exceed our estimates and these expenses will negatively impact the
results of operations of these properties during these transition periods. Failure to achieve the anticipated benefits of these
acquisitions could result in decreases in the amount of expected revenues and diversion of management’s time and energy and
could adversely affect our business, financial condition and operating results including, ultimately, a reduction in our stock
price.
We face risks associated with growth and acquisitions.
As part of our business strategy, we regularly evaluate opportunities for growth through development of gaming operations in
existing or new markets, through acquiring other gaming entertainment facilities or through redeveloping our existing gaming
facilities. In the future, we may also pursue expansion opportunities, including joint ventures or partnerships, in jurisdictions
where casino gaming is not currently permitted in order to be prepared to develop projects upon approval of casino gaming.
Although we only intend to engage in acquisitions that, if consummated, will be accretive to us and our shareholders,
acquisitions require significant management attention and resources to integrate new properties, businesses and operations. Our
ability to realize the anticipated benefits of acquisitions will depend, in part, on our ability to integrate the acquired businesses
with our businesses. The combination of two independent companies is a complex, costly and time-consuming process. This
process may disrupt the business of either or both of the companies and may not result in the full benefits expected. Potential
difficulties we may encounter as part of the integration process that may negatively impact our earnings or otherwise adversely
affect our business and financial results include, among other things, the following:
•the inability to successfully incorporate acquired assets in a manner that permits us to achieve the full revenue
increases, cost reductions and other benefits anticipated to result from any acquisitions;
•complexities associated with managing the combined business, including difficulty addressing possible differences in
cultures and management philosophies and the challenge of integrating complex systems, technology, networks and
other assets of each of the companies in a seamless manner that minimizes any adverse impact on customers, suppliers,
employees and other constituencies;
•the disruption of, or the loss of momentum in, each of our ongoing businesses;
•inconsistencies in standards, controls, procedures and policies; and
•potential unknown liabilities and unforeseen increased expenses associated with acquisitions.
Additionally, even if integration is successful, the overall integration of acquired assets and businesses may result in material
unanticipated problems, expenses, liabilities, competitive responses, loss of customer and other business relationships and
diversion of management attention. There is also no guarantee that the acquired assets or businesses will generate any of the
projected synergies and earnings growth, and the failure to realize such projected synergies and earnings growth may adversely
affect our operating and financial results and derail any growth plans.
28
There can be no assurance that we will be able to identify, acquire, develop or profitably manage additional companies or
operations or successfully integrate such companies or operations into our existing operations without substantial costs, delays
or other problems. Additionally, there can be no assurance that we will receive gaming or other necessary licenses or approvals
for new projects that we may pursue or that gaming will be approved in jurisdictions where it is not currently approved.
Ballot measures or other voter-approved initiatives to allow gaming in jurisdictions where gaming, or certain types of gaming
(such as slots and sports wagering), was not previously permitted could be challenged, and, if such challenges are successful,
these ballot measures or initiatives could be invalidated. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that there will not be similar or
other challenges to legalized gaming in existing or current markets in which we may operate or have development plans, and
successful challenges to legalized gaming could require us to abandon or substantially curtail our operations or development
plans in those locations, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.
There can be no assurance that we will not face similar challenges and difficulties with respect to new development projects,
such as the permanent casino project in Chicago, or expansion efforts that we may undertake, which could result in significant
sunk costs that we may not be able to fully recoup or that otherwise have a material adverse effect on our financial condition
and results of operations. We may not be able to obtain additional financing on acceptable terms or at all. To the extent that we
seek to acquire other businesses in exchange for our common stock, fluctuations in our stock price could adversely affect our
ability to complete acquisitions.
We may not realize the anticipated benefits of existing or pending strategic alliances, joint ventures, acquisitions, divestitures or
new business strategies.
We have invested in, formed strategic alliances with and announced proposed joint ventures with other companies, such as the
RI Joint Venture, and we may expand those relationships or enter into similar relationships with additional companies which
may require various state approvals which may or may not be granted. These initiatives are typically complex, and we may not
be able to complete anticipated alliance or joint venture transactions, the anticipated benefits of these transactions may not be
realized or the benefits may be delayed. For example, we may not successfully integrate an alliance or joint venture with our
operations, including the implementation of our controls, systems, procedures and policies, or unforeseen expenses or liabilities
may arise that were not discovered during due diligence prior to an investment or entry into a strategic alliance, or a
misalignment of interests may develop between us and the other party. Further, to the extent we share ownership, control or
management with another party in a joint venture, our ability to influence such joint venture may be limited, and we may be
unable to prevent misconduct or implement our compliance or internal control systems. In addition, implementation of a new
business strategy may lead to the disruption of our existing business operations, including distracting management from current
operations. Results of operations from new activities may be lower than our existing activities, and, if a strategy is unsuccessful,
we may not recoup our investments in that strategy. Failure to successfully and timely realize the anticipated benefits of these
transactions or strategies could have an adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations.
Following the combination of the international interactive business within Bally’s Intralot, there can be no assurance that
Bally’s Intralot will be able to successfully integrate the combined lottery B2B and online gaming B2C businesses.
The integration of the two companies may result in material challenges, including the diversion of management’s attention from
ongoing business concerns; retaining key management and other employees; retaining or attracting business and operational
relationships; faulty assumptions underlying expectations regarding the integration process and associated expenses;
consolidating corporate and administrative infrastructures and eliminating duplicative operations; coordinating geographically
separate organizations; unanticipated issues in integrating information technology, communications and other systems; as well
as potential unknown liabilities, unforeseen expenses relating to integration, or delays associated with the merger transactions.
Accordingly, the future operating results, cash flows and financial condition of the combined company will be affected by its
ability to manage changing business conditions and to implement and adapt its financial controls and reporting systems in
response to the merger transactions.
29
Our business depends, in part, on strategic relationships with third parties. Overreliance on certain third parties or our
inability to extend existing relationships or agree to new relationships may cause unanticipated costs for us and impact our
financial performance in the future.
We have entered into strategic partnerships with the National Hockey League, MLB Professional Development Leagues, LLC,
among others, and may enter into relationships with advertisers, casinos and other third parties in order to attract users to our
platform. These relationships along with providers of online services, search engines, social media, directories and other
websites and e-commerce businesses direct consumers to our platform. In addition, parties with whom we have advertising
arrangements provide advertising services to other companies, including other fantasy sports and gaming platforms with which
we compete. While we believe there are other third parties that could drive users to our platform, adding or transitioning to
them may disrupt our business and increase our costs. In the event that any of our existing relationships or our future
relationships fails to provide services to us in accordance with the terms of our arrangement, or at all, and we are not able to
find suitable alternatives, this could impact our ability to attract consumers cost effectively and harm our business, financial
condition and results of operations.
Our branded sites are heavily reliant on well-known brands owned by third parties.
We operate certain branded sites, including sites branded as Virgin Games, Double Bubble Bingo and Monopoly Casino. All
such branded sites operated by us are reliant on the use of highly trusted and recognizable brands which are owned by third
parties (the “Third Party Brands”). We operate the Third Party Brands pursuant to brand licensing arrangements with the
relevant third party brand owner (the “Brand Owner”). We are contractually required to operate such branded sites in
accordance with those brand licensing arrangements, and any material breach of those requirements may expose us to claims for
breach of contract and/or may lead to the Brand Owner terminating or failing to renew the brand licensing arrangements. We
own the player data in respect of such branded sites, and in the event that the brand licensing arrangements for any of such
branded sites were to be terminated early or not renewed, then we would seek to migrate those players to a different gaming site
operated by us. However, there is a risk that any replacement branded site offered by us may not successfully retain those
players, and if we lose the right to use any of the Third Party Brands, our business, financial condition and results of operations
may be materially adversely affected.
We are exposed to the risk that the reputation of the Third Party Brands may be adversely affected by the activities of third
parties over whom we have no control. For example, we operate the Virgin Games site. The Virgin brand is used by a wide
range of businesses. In the event that the reputation of the Virgin brand was to be adversely affected due to the actions of third
parties, that may affect our business prospects.
Our online business model depends upon the continued compatibility between our apps and the major mobile operating
systems and upon third-party platforms for the distribution of our product offerings, which depend on factors beyond our
control such as the design of third-party operating systems and continued access to our apps on third-party distribution
platforms like the Apple App Store.
Our digital business is dependent on the interoperability of our technology with popular mobile operating systems,
technologies, networks and standards as our users access our online betting and gaming product offerings primarily on mobile
devices. As a result, our business model depends upon the continued compatibility between our app and the major mobile
operating systems, such as the Android and iOS operating systems, and we rely upon third-party platforms for distribution of
our product offerings. We do not have formal or informal relationships with parties that control design of mobile devices and
operating systems and there is no guarantee that popular mobile devices will start or continue to support or feature our product
offerings. Any changes, bugs, technical or regulatory issues in such operating systems, our relationships with mobile
manufacturers and carriers, or in their terms of service or policies that degrade our offerings’ functionality, reduce or eliminate
our ability to distribute our offerings, give preferential treatment to competitive products, limit our ability to deliver high quality
offerings, or impose fees or other charges related to delivering our offerings, could adversely affect our product usage and
monetization on mobile devices. In addition, if any of the third-party platforms used for distribution of our product offerings
were to limit or disable the availability of our app or advertising on their platforms, our ability to generate revenue could be
harmed. These changes could materially impact the way we do business, and if we are unable to adjust to those changes quickly
and effectively, there could be an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

A portion of our casinos are located on leased property. If we default on one or more leases, the applicable lessors could
terminate the affected leases and we could lose possession of the affected casino.
We currently lease certain real property interests underlying several of our Casino properties. Our leases provide that they may
be terminated for a number of reasons, including failure to pay rent, taxes or other payment obligations or the breach of other
covenants contained in the leases. Our leases with GLPI, excluding the Chicago MLA, require annual rent payments of
$233.1 million in 2026, which is subject to escalation annually, and in some instances, obligate us to make specified minimum
capital expenditures with respect to the leased properties. If our business and properties fail to generate sufficient earnings, the
payments required to service the rent obligations under our leases with GLPI could materially and adversely limit our ability to
react to changes in our business and make acquisitions and investments in our properties. Regarding our ground leases, we have
the right to use the leased land; however, we do not hold fee ownership of the underlying land. Accordingly, we have no
interest in the leased land or improvements thereon at the expiration of the ground leases. If our use of the land underlying our
casino properties is disrupted permanently or for a significant period of time, then the value of our assets could be impaired and
our business and operations could be adversely affected. If we were to default on any one or more of these leases, the applicable
lessors could terminate the affected leases and we could lose possession of the affected land and any improvements on the land,
including the hotels and casinos. Further, in the event that any lessor of our leased properties, including GLPI, encounters
financial, operational, regulatory or other challenges, there can be no assurance that such lessor will be able to comply with its
obligations under the applicable lease.
We entered into a lease with GLP and could experience risks associated with the leased property, including risks relating to
lease termination, inability to obtain a satisfactory lease extension, consents and approvals, charges and our relationship
with the landlord, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position or results of operatio ns.
On July 17, 2025, Bally’s Chicago Operating Company, LLC (“Bally’s Chicago OpCo”), an affiliate of the Company, entered
into (a) an amended and restated ground lease (the “Chicago MLA”) with GLP Capital, L.P. (“GLP”) pursuant to which Bally’s
Chicago OpCo leases the property on which it is developing our permanent Chicago resort and casino and (b) a development
agreement with GLP (the “GLP Development Agreement”) pursuant to which GLP has committed to advance up to $940
million (the “GLP Development Advances”) for the payment of hard costs used to construct our permanent Chicago resort and
casino in exchange for increasing the amount of rent that Bally’s Chicago OpCo pays to GLP under the Chicago MLA. The
Chicago MLA has a 15-year term and up to four renewal terms of five years each, if elected by Bally’s Chicago OpCo, and rent
payable under the Chicago MLA is (a) $20.0 million annually, subject to annual escalations set forth therein, plus (b) an annual
amount equal to 8.5% of the GLP Development Advances that GLP advances to Bally’s Chicago OpCo.
GLP has the right to terminate the Chicago MLA upon any event of default under the Chicago MLA. Such events of default
include, without limitation, a failure to pay amounts due after applicable notice and cure periods, certain bankruptcy or
insolvency events, a cross-default with the GLP Development Agreement and the failure to comply with a variety of covenants
after applicable notice and cure periods, including those related to the development of our permanent resort and casino, repair
and maintenance, alterations and insurance. In addition, from and after any refinancing, extension or majority amendment of
our Credit Agreement, the Chicago MLA will include a cross-default to (a) that certain Master Lease, dated June 3, 2021, as
subsequently amended, between GLP and Bally’s Management Group, LLC (“Bally’s Management”), an affiliate of the
Company, pursuant to which Bally’s Management leases the following properties from GLP: Bally’s Evansville, Bally’s Dover,
Bally’s Black Hawk North, Bally’s Black Hawk West, Bally’s Black Hawk East, Bally’s Quad Cities, Bally’s Tiverton and
Hard Rock Biloxi and (b) that certain Master Lease, dated December 16, 2024, as subsequently amended, between GLP and
Bally’s Management, pursuant to which Bally’s Management leases the following properties from GLP: Bally’s Kansas City,
Bally’s Shreveport, Bally’s Twin River, DraftKings at Casino Queen and The Queen Baton Rouge.
There are also certain restrictions on Bally’s Chicago OpCo’s ability to assign its interest in the Chicago MLA without having
to obtain GLP’s prior consent, including requirements for the transferee (or its parent company) to satisfy certain financial
metrics and have a certain level of experience in operating or managing casinos.
GLP’s obligation to make GLP Development Advances under the GLP Development Agreement is subject to certain
conditions, including that Bally’s Chicago OpCo shall have unrestricted access to funds in an amount sufficient at the time of
each GLP Development Advance to fund the construction of our permanent resort and casino. Bally’s Chicago OpCo is
obligated to construct our permanent resort and casino in compliance with terms and conditions set forth in the GLP
Development Agreement, which include the satisfaction of specified development and construction milestones.
31
The GLP Development Agreement contains customary representations and covenants by Bally’s Chicago OpCo and contains
funding conditions, including, without limitation, (a) GLP’s reasonable approval of plans and specifications, the project budget
(including amendments thereto and reallocations therein except those permitted under the GLP Development Agreement), the
project schedule, the underlying construction and architect contracts, and all change orders (subject to exceptions set forth in the
GLP Development Agreement), (b) GLP’s receipt of appropriate lien waivers, (c) budget balancing requirements, (d) retainage
requirements, and (e) other customary conditions, all as set forth in the GLP Development Agreement. From and after the first
GLP Development Advance, Bally’s Chicago OpCo is required to fund all hard costs of construction of the permanent resort
and casino utilizing solely GLP Development Advances until GLP has funded its entire commitment or construction has been
completed. The GLP Development Agreement also contains defaults and remedies, including, without limitation, a cross-
default with the Chicago MLA. Bally’s Chicago OpCo is not permitted to assign, finance, transfer, pledge or encumber its
interest in the GLP Development Agreement without GLP’s prior written consent, whether or not any such assignment,
financing, transfer, pledge or encumbrance is permitted with respect to the GLP Lease Agreement, other than to a permitted
leasehold mortgagee under the Chicago MLA.
Termination of any or all of the casino lease agreements (including as a result of a default under the GLP Development
Agreement) would result in us losing some or all of our rights with respect to the applicable properties, could result in a default
under the Host Community Agreement, and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position or results of
operations. In the event of a termination of any of the casino lease agreements (including as a result of a default under the GLP
Development Agreement), we may be required to transfer all personal property located at the applicable property to a
designated successor, and we may not be adequately compensated for that personal property. Moreover, since as a lessee we do
not completely control the land and improvements underlying our operations, the lessors could take certain actions to disrupt
our rights in the properties leased under the casino lease agreements, which are beyond our control. If the lessors chose to
disrupt our use either permanently or for a significant period of time, then the value of our assets could be impaired and our
business and operations could be adversely affected. There can also be no assurance that we will be able to comply with our
obligations under the casino lease agreements (including our obligations under the GLP Development Agreement) in the future.
In addition, if the lessors have financial, operational, regulatory or other challenges, there can be no assurance that the lessors
will be able to comply with their obligations under the casino lease agreements, including their obligations to provide us
financing for the construction of our permanent resort and casino in Chicago.
We rely on other third-party sports data providers for real-time and accurate data for sporting events, and if such third
parties do not perform adequately or terminate their relationships with us, our costs may increase and our business,
financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.
We rely on third-party sports data providers to obtain accurate information regarding schedules, results, performance and
outcomes of sporting events. We rely on this data to determine when and how sports bets are settled. We have experienced, and
may continue to experience, errors in this data feed which may result in us incorrectly settling bets. If we cannot adequately
resolve the issue with our users, our users may have a negative experience with our offerings, our brand or reputation may be
negatively affected and our users may be less inclined to continue or resume utilizing our products or recommend our offerings
to other potential users. As such, a failure or significant interruption in our service may harm our reputation, business and
operating results.
Furthermore, if any of our sports data partners terminates its relationship with us or refuses to renew its agreement with us on
commercially reasonable terms, we would need to find an alternate provider, and may not be able to secure similar terms or
replace such providers in an acceptable time frame. Any of these risks could increase our costs and adversely affect our
business, financial condition and results of operations. Further, any negative publicity related to any of our third-party partners,
including any publicity related to regulatory concerns, could adversely affect our reputation and brand, and could potentially
lead to increased regulatory or litigation exposure.
32
Negative perceptions and publicity surrounding the lottery industry could lead to increased regulation.
Our Bally’s Intralot business includes a global lottery management and services business. The popularity and acceptance of
lottery games is influenced by prevailing social attitudes toward the lottery, and changes in social attitudes toward the lottery
could result in reduced acceptance of lottery play as a leisure activity. Further, from time to time, the lottery industry is exposed
to negative publicity related to player behavior, play by minors, the presence of point-of-sale machines in too many locations,
risks related to iLottery accessibility, and alleged association with money laundering. Publicity regarding problem gambling and
other concerns with the lottery industry, even if not directly connected to the Company, could adversely impact its business,
results of operations, and financial condition. For example, if the perception develops that the lottery industry is failing to
address responsible lottery concerns adequately, the resulting political pressure may result in the industry becoming subject to
increased regulation and restrictions on operations. Such an increase in regulation could adversely impact our results of
operations, business, financial condition, or prospects.
Our management identified a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting which could, if not
remediated, result in material misstatements in our consolidated financial stateme nts.
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal controls over our financial reporting, as such
term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act. As disclosed in this report, we evaluated the effectiveness of our
internal control over financial reporting and identified a material weakness as of December 31, 2025 relating to the ineffective
operation of management review controls over accounting for income taxes and related disclosures.
A material weakness is defined as a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting,
such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be
prevented or detected on a timely basis. If not remediated, the material w eakness identified above could result in material
misstatements in our consolidated financial statements.
We conduct our business in an industry that is subject to high taxes and may be subject to higher taxes in the futur e.
In gaming jurisdictions in which we conduct our business, with the exception of Rhode Island, state and local governments
raise considerable revenues from taxes based on casino revenues and operations. In Rhode Island, the state takes all of the
gaming win that comes into our Rhode Island operations and then pays us a percentage of the gaming win. We also pay
property taxes, occupancy taxes, sales and use taxes, payroll taxes, franchise taxes and income taxes. Our profitability will
depend on generating enough revenues to cover variable expenses, such as payroll and marketing, as well as largely fixed
expenses, such as property taxes and interest expense. From time to time, state and local governments have increased gaming
taxes and such increases could significantly impact the profitability of our gaming operations.
Our operations in other states are generally subject to significant revenue-based taxes and fees in addition to normal federal,
state and local income taxes, and such taxes and fees are subject to increase at any time. In addition, from time to time, federal,
state and local legislators and officials have proposed changes in tax laws, or in the administration of such laws, affecting the
gaming industry. Further, worsening economic conditions could intensify the efforts of applicable state and local governments
to raise revenues through increases in gaming taxes and/or property taxes. It is not possible to determine with certainty the
likelihood of changes in tax laws in these jurisdictions or in the administration of such laws. Such changes, if adopted, could
adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. The large number of state and local governments
with significant current or projected budget deficits makes it more likely that those governments that currently permit gaming
will seek to fund such deficits with new or increased gaming taxes and/or property taxes and worsening economic conditions
could intensify those efforts. Any material increase, or the adoption of additional taxes or fees, could adversely affect our future
financial results.
There can be no assurance that governments in jurisdictions in which we conduct our business, or the federal government, will
not enact legislation that increases gaming tax rates. General economic pressures have the potential to reduce revenues of state
governments from traditional tax sources, which may cause state legislatures or the federal government to be more inclined to
increase gaming tax rates. See “New legislation governing the online gaming industry may be introduced in the UK which
limits or restricts our operating model in that market.”
33
New and future changes to US and non-US tax laws could adversely affect our business.
The US Congress, the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (the “OECD”) and other government
agencies in jurisdictions where Bally’s and its affiliates do business have had an extended focus on issues related to the taxation
of multinational corporations. One example is in the area of “base erosion and profit shifting,” including the OECD’s “Pillar
Two” framework, which, among other changes, generally provide for an effective global minimum corporate tax rate of 15% on
profits generated by certain multinational companies. Although this initiative is subject to further developments in the countries
where Bally’s and its affiliates do business, it is already in force in various jurisdictions, including the UK and the EU. On
January 5, 2026, the OECD announced a “side-by-side” elective safe harbor that exempts U.S.-parented multinational entities
from certain provisions of Pillar Two for fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2026. We are continuing to evaluate the
Pillar Two framework and related legislation and the potential impact on our business. The adoption of the Pillar Two
framework by countries in which Bally’s and its affiliates do business could adversely affect Bally’s and its affiliates’ effective
tax rate and increase tax complexity and uncertainty. Furthermore, as a result of the Pillar Two framework or other tax
initiatives, the tax laws in the US, the UK and other countries in which Bally’s and its affiliates do business could change on a
prospective or retroactive basis, and any such changes could adversely affect Bally’s and its affiliates.
In addition, the US government may enact significant changes to the taxation of business entities including, among others,
changes to the rules regarding controlled foreign corporations, the elimination of certain tax exemptions and the imposition of
further minimum taxes or surtaxes on certain types of income. Although a range of US tax legislation has been proposed, the
likelihood of these changes being enacted or implemented is unclear. We are currently unable to predict whether such changes
will occur and, if so, the ultimate impact on our business.
See “New legislation governing the online gaming industry may be introduced in the UK which limits or restricts our
operating model in that market.”
If we fail to detect fraud, theft or cheating, including by our customers and employees, our reputation may suffer which
could harm our brand and reputation and negatively impact our business, financial condition and results of operations and
can subject us to investigations and litigation.
We have in the past incurred, and may in the future incur, losses from various types of financial fraud, including use of stolen or
fraudulent credit card data, claims of unauthorized payments by a user and attempted payments by users with insufficient funds.
Bad actors use increasingly sophisticated methods to engage in illegal activities involving personal information, such as
unauthorized use of another person’s identity, account information or payment information and unauthorized acquisition or use
of credit or debit card details, bank account information and mobile phone numbers and accounts. Under current credit card
practices, we may be liable for use of funds on our platform with fraudulent credit card data, even if the associated financial
institution approved the credit card transaction.
Acts of fraud may involve various tactics, including collusion. Successful exploitation of our systems could have negative
effects on our product offerings, services and user experience and could harm our reputation. Failure to discover such acts or
schemes in a timely manner could result in harm to our operations. In addition, negative publicity related to such schemes could
have an adverse effect on our reputation, potentially causing a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and
results of operations. In the event of the occurrence of any such issues with our existing platform or product offerings,
substantial engineering and marketing resources and management attention, may be diverted from other projects to correct these
issues, which may delay other projects and the achievement of our strategic objectives.
In addition, any misappropriation of, or access to, users’ or other proprietary information or other breach of our information
security could result in legal claims or legal proceedings, including regulatory investigations and actions, or liability for failure
to comply with privacy and information security laws, including for failure to protect personal information or for misusing
personal information, which could disrupt our operations, force us to modify our business practices, damage our reputation and
expose us to claims from our users, regulators, employees and other persons, any of which could have an adverse effect on our
business, financial condition and results of operations.
Despite measures we have taken to detect and reduce the occurrence of fraudulent or other malicious activity on our platform,
we cannot guarantee that any of our measures will be effective or will scale efficiently with our business. Our failure to
adequately detect or prevent fraudulent transactions could harm our reputation or brand, result in litigation or regulatory action
and lead to expenses that could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
34
We are largely dependent on the skill and experience of management and key personnel.
We expect to experience strong competition in hiring and retaining qualified property and corporate management personnel,
including competition from Native American gaming facilities that are not subject to the same taxation regimes as we are and,
therefore, may be willing and able to pay higher rates of compensation. From time to time, a number of vacancies in key
corporate and property management positions can be expected. If we are unable to successfully recruit and retain qualified
management personnel at our facilities or at the corporate level, our results of operations could be adversely affected.
In addition, our officers, directors and key employees are required to file applications with the gaming authorities in each of the
jurisdictions in which we conduct our business and are required to be licensed or found suitable by these gaming authorities. If
the gaming authorities were to find an officer, director or key employee unsuitable for licensing or unsuitable to continue
having a relationship with us, we would have to sever all relationships with that person. Furthermore, the gaming authorities
may require us to terminate the employment of any person who refuses to file appropriate applications. Either result could
significantly impair our operations. The time and effort needed to successfully complete the application process could impact
our ability to attract, hire and retain top talent.
We are subject to risks associated with labor relations, labor costs and labor disruptions.
We are subject to the costs and risks generally associated with labor disputes and organizing activities related to unionized
labor. From time to time, our operations may be disrupted by strikes, public demonstrations or other coordinated actions and
publicity. We may incur increased legal costs and indirect labor costs as a result of contractual disputes, negotiations or other
labor-related disruptions.
A large number of our employees at our Casinos & Resorts properties within several US states are represented by a labor union
and are subject to collective bargaining agreements with us. As of December 31, 2025, we had 36 collective bargaining
agreements covering 3,679 employees. Our collective bargaining agreements generally have three-or-five-year terms. There can
be no assurance that we will be able to extend or enter into replacement agreements. If we are able to extend or enter into
replacement agreements, there can be no assurance as to whether the terms will be on comparable terms to the existing
agreements. We may also face organizing activities that could result in additional employees becoming unionized. Furthermore,
labor regulation and the negotiation of new or existing collective bargaining agreements could lead to higher wage and benefit
costs, changes in work rules that raise operating expenses and legal costs thereby affecting our profitability or interfering with
the ability of our management to focus on executing our business strategies, and could impose limitations on our ability to
reduce the size of our workforce during an economic downturn, which could put us at a competitive disadvantage.
Our obligation to fund multi-employer defined benefit pension plans to which we are a party may adversely affect us.
We must contribute to a number of multi-employer defined benefit pension plans under the terms of collective-bargaining
agreements that cover certain union-represented employees. The risks of participating in these multi-employer plans are
different from single-employer plans in the following aspects:
•assets contributed to the multi-employer plan by one employer may be used to provide benefits to employees of other
participating employers;
•if a participating employer stops contributing to the plan, the unfunded obligations of the plan may be borne by the
remaining participating employers; and
•if we choose to stop participating in some of our multi-employer plans, we may be required to pay those plans an
amount based on the underfunded status of the plan, referred to as a withdrawal liability.
In addition, the funding obligations for our pension plans will be impacted by the performance of the financial markets,
particularly the equity markets and interest rates. Funding obligations are determined by government regulations and are
measured each year based on the value of assets and liabilities on a specific date. If the financial markets do not provide the
long-term returns that are expected, we could be required to make larger contributions. The equity markets can be very volatile,
and, therefore, our estimate of future contribution requirements can change dramatically in relatively short periods of time.
Similarly, changes in interest rates and legislation enacted by governmental authorities can impact the timing and amounts of
contribution requirements. An adverse change in the funded status of the plans could significantly increase our required
contributions in the future and adversely impact our liquidity.
35
We may incur impairments to goodwill, indefinite-lived intangible assets or long-lived assets.
We monitor the recoverability of our long-lived assets, such as buildings, and evaluate their carrying value for impairment
whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be fully recoverable. We
annually review goodwill to determine if impairment has occurred. Additionally, interim reviews are performed whenever
events or changes in circumstances indicate that impairment may have occurred. If the testing performed indicates that
impairment has occurred, we are required to record a non-cash impairment charge for the difference between the carrying value
and fair value of the long-lived assets or the carrying value and fair value of the reporting unit, in the period the determination is
made. The testing of long-lived assets and goodwill for impairment requires us to make estimates that are subject to significant
assumptions about our future revenue, profitability, cash flows, fair value of assets and liabilities, weighted average cost of
capital, as well as other assumptions. Changes in these estimates, or changes in actual performance compared with these
estimates, may affect the fair value of long-lived assets or reporting unit, which may result in an impairment charge.
We cannot accurately predict the amount or timing of any impairment of assets. Should the value of long-lived assets or
goodwill become impaired, our financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected.
Our operations have historically been subject to seasonal variations and quarterly fluctuations in operating results, and we
can expect to experience such variations and fluctuations in the future.
Casino, hotel and racing operations in our markets are subject to seasonal variation. Seasonal weather conditions can frequently
adversely affect transportation routes to each of our properties and may cause snowfall, flooding and other effects that result in
the closure of our properties. In addition, our sports betting business may experience seasonality based on the relative
popularity of certain sports at different parts of the year. As a result, unfavorable seasonal conditions could have a material
adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Our business is particularly sensitive to energy prices and a rise in energy prices could harm our operating results.
We are a large consumer of electricity and other energy and, therefore, higher energy prices may have an adverse effect on our
results of operations. Accordingly, increases in energy costs may have a negative impact on our operating results. Additionally,
higher electricity and gasoline prices that affect our customers may result in reduced visitation to our properties and a reduction
in our revenues. We may be indirectly impacted by regulatory requirements aimed at reducing the impacts of climate change
directed at up-stream utility providers, as we could experience potentially higher utility, fuel and transportation costs.
Expectations relating to environmental, social and governance considerations expose us to potential liabilities, reputational
harm and other unforeseen adverse effects on our business.
Many governments, regulators, investors, employees, customers and other stakeholders are increasingly focused on
environmental, social and governance and sustainability considerations relating to businesses, including climate change and
greenhouse gas emissions, data privacy, artificial intelligence, human capital and diversity, equity and inclusion. We make
statements about goals and initiatives through information provided on our website, press statements and other
communications. Responding to these considerations and implementation of these goals and initiatives involves risks and
uncertainties and requires ongoing investments. The success of our goals and initiatives may be impacted by factors that are
outside our control. In addition, some stakeholders may disagree with our goals and initiatives and the focus and views of
stakeholders may change and evolve over time and vary depending on the jurisdictions in which we operate. Any failure, or
perceived failure, by us to achieve our goals, further our initiatives, adhere to our public statements, comply with federal, state
or international environmental, social and governance laws and regulations, or meet evolving and varied stakeholder
expectations and views could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
36
Our insurance and self-insurance programs may not be adequate to cover future claims.
Although we maintain insurance that we believe is customary and appropriate for our business, we cannot assure that such
insurance programs will be available or adequate to cover all losses and damage to which our business or our assets might be
subjected. We use a combination of insurance and self-insurance to provide for potential liabilities, including employee
healthcare benefits, up to certain stop-loss amounts which limit our exposure above the amounts we have self-insured. We
estimate the liabilities and required reserves associated with the risks we retain. Any such estimates and actuarial projection of
losses is subject to a considerable degree of variability. If actual losses incurred are greater than those anticipated, our reserves
may be insufficient and additional costs could be recorded in our consolidated financial statements. If we suffer a substantial
loss that exceeds our self-insurance reserves, and any excess insurance coverage, the loss and attendant expenses could harm
our business, financial condition or results of operations. The lack of adequate insurance for certain types or levels of risk could
expose us to significant losses in the event that a catastrophe occurred for which we are uninsured or underinsured. Any losses
we incur that are not adequately covered by insurance may decrease our future operating income, require us to find
replacements or repairs for destroyed property and reduce the funds available for payments of our obligations. We renew our
insurance policies on an annual basis. The cost of coverage may become so high that we may need to further reduce our policy
limits, further increase our deductibles or agree to certain exclusions from our coverage.
We may be unable to protect our intellectual property rights.
We develop intellectual property to differentiate our retail casinos and interactive products from our competitors. Our brands
and technology constitute key business assets. In order to protect our brands, technology and other creative output, we rely on a
combination of trademarks, copyright, patents, trade secrets and contract law to establish and protect our proprietary rights. For
example, the Bally’s and Bally brand are protected by approximately 170 trademark registrations and applications in the U.S.
and foreign jurisdictions. While we take action to protect our intellectual property rights, there is always a risk that (i) our
proprietary rights become invalidated or unenforceable, (ii) we are unsuccessful in obtaining trademark or patent registrations
and (iii) we are unsuccessful in our enforcement efforts and, therefore, unable to prevent what we consider to be misuse of our
intellectual property assets. In addition, the laws of some foreign countries do not protect intellectual property rights to the same
extent as the laws of the United States. Finally, third parties may independently develop similar brands and technologies which
would negatively impact the value of our intellectual property.
Our results of operations and financial condition could be adversely affected by the occurrence of natural disasters, such as
hurricanes, or other catastrophic events, including war, terrorism and public health crises such as the COVID-19 pandemic.
In addition, results could be adversely impacted by other events beyond our control, including travel disruptions.
Natural disasters, such as major hurricanes, typhoons, tornados, floods, fires and earthquakes, could adversely affect our
business and operating results. Hurricanes are common in the areas in which our Mississippi and Louisiana properties are
located, and the severity of such natural disasters is unpredictable.
Catastrophic events, such as terrorist attacks and global and regional conflicts (e.g., the wars in Ukraine and Iran), have had a
negative effect on travel and leisure expenditures, including lodging, gaming (in some jurisdictions) and tourism. These events
can also lead to unstable market and economic conditions and have additional global consequences. We cannot accurately
predict the extent to which such events may affect us, directly or indirectly, in the future.
Public health crises may also significantly impact our business. For example, the global spread of the COVID-19 pandemic,
which began in early 2020, resulted in governments, public institutions and other organizations imposing or recommending, and
businesses and individuals implementing, restrictions on various activities or other actions to combat its spread, such as
restrictions and bans on travel or transportation, stay-at-home directives, requirements that individuals wear masks or other face
coverings, limitations on the size of gatherings, closures of work facilities, schools, public buildings and businesses,
cancellation of events, including sporting events, concerts, conferences and meetings and quarantines and lock-downs. The
pandemic and its consequences dramatically reduced travel and demand for hotel rooms and other casino resort amenities,
which had a negative impact on our results in 2020 and 2021. There are no assurances that future pandemics or other public
health crises will not cause similar disruptions that existed in 2020 and 2021.
In addition, other events beyond our control, such as travel disruptions impacting the ability of people to travel to our casino
properties, could impact our business. For example, the closure of Washington Bridge in Rhode Island has impacted foot traffic
at our Rhode Island properties, particularly Bally’s Twin River.
37
There can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain or choose to purchase any insurance coverage with respect to
occurrences of catastrophic events, such as those described above. If there is a prolonged disruption at our facilities due to
natural disasters, terrorist attacks, wars, public health crises or other catastrophic events, our results of operations and financial
condition would be adversely affected.
Cybersecurity and Technology Risks
We rely on information technology and other systems and platforms, and any failures, errors, defects or disruptions in our
systems or platforms could diminish our brand and reputation, subject us to liability, disrupt our business, affect our ability
to scale our technical infrastructure and adversely affect our operating results and growth prospects.
We engage a number of third parties to provide gaming operating systems for the facilities we own. As a result, we rely on such
third parties to provide uninterrupted services in order to run our business efficiently and effectively. In the event one of these
third parties experiences a disruption in its ability to provide such services (whether due to technological or financial difficulties
or power problems), this may result in a material disruption to the wagering activity at the casinos which we own and have a
material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition.
If our user base and engagement continue to grow, and the amount and types of offerings continue to grow and evolve, we will
need an increasing amount of technical infrastructure, including network capacity and computing power, to continue to satisfy
our users’ needs. Such infrastructure expansion may be complex, and unanticipated delays in completing these projects or
availability of components may lead to increased project costs, operational inefficiencies or interruptions in the delivery or
degradation of the quality of our offerings. In addition, there may be issues related to this infrastructure that are not identified
during the testing phases of design and implementation, which may only become evident after we have started to fully use the
underlying equipment or software, that could further degrade the user experience or increase our costs. As such, we could fail to
continue to effectively scale and grow our technical infrastructure to accommodate increased demands. In addition, our business
may be subject to interruptions, delays or failures resulting from adverse weather conditions, other natural disasters, power loss,
terrorism, cyber-attacks, public health emergencies (such as the coronavirus) or other catastrophic events. Any unscheduled
interruption in our technology services is likely to result in an immediate, and possibly substantial, loss of revenues due to a
shutdown of our gaming operations, cloud computing and lottery systems.
We believe that if our users have a negative experience with our offerings, or if our brand or reputation is negatively affected,
users may be less inclined to continue or resume utilizing our products or recommend our platform to other potential users. As
such, a failure or significant interruption in our service would harm our reputation, business and operating results.
We are reliant on the reliability and viability of internet infrastructure, which is out of our control, and the proper
functioning of our own network systems.
The growth of internet usage has caused interruptions and delays in processing and transmitting data over the internet. There
can be no assurance that internet infrastructure or our own network systems will continue to be able to support the demands
placed on them by the continued growth of the internet, the overall online gambling industry or that of our customers. The
internet’s viability could be affected by delays in the development or adoption of new standards and protocols to handle
increased levels of internet activity or by increased government regulation. The introduction of legislation or regulations
requiring internet service providers in any jurisdiction to block access to our websites and products may restrict the ability of
our customers to access products and services offered by us. Such restrictions, should they be imposed, could have a material
adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
If critical issues concerning the commercial use of the internet are not favorably resolved (including security, reliability, cost,
ease of use, accessibility and quality of service), if the necessary infrastructure is not sufficient or if other technologies and
technological devices eclipse the internet as a viable channel, this may negatively affect internet usage, and our business,
financial condition and results of operations will be materially adversely affected. Additionally, the increasing presence of
viruses and cyber-attacks may affect the viability and infrastructure of the internet and/or the proper functioning of our network
systems and could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
38
Our business may be harmed from cybersecurity incidents and we may be subject to legal claims if there is loss, disclosure or
misappropriation of or access to our customers’, business partners’ or our own information or other breaches of
information security.
We make extensive use of online services and centralized data processing, including through third-party service providers. We
have experienced certain cyber-attacks, attempts to breach our systems and other similar incidents. The secure maintenance and
transmission of customer information is a critical element of our operations. Our information technology and other systems, or
those of service providers and business partners, that maintain and transmit customer or employee information may be
compromised by a malicious third-party penetration of our network security, or that of a third-party service provider or business
partner or impacted by intentional or unintentional actions or inactions by our employees, or those of a third-party service
provider or business partner. As a result, our customers’ or employee’s information may be lost, disclosed, accessed, or taken
without our customers’ or employees’ consent.
In addition, third-party service providers and other business partners process and maintain proprietary business information and
data related to our employees, customers, suppliers and other business partners. Our information technology and other systems
that maintain and transmit this information, or those of service providers or business partners, may also be compromised by a
malicious third-party penetration of our network security or that of a third-party service provider or business partner, or
impacted by intentional or unintentional actions or inactions by our employees or those of a third-party service provider or
business partner. As a result, our business information or customer, supplier and other business partner data may be lost,
disclosed, accessed or taken without consent.
Any such loss, disclosure, or misappropriation of, or access to, customers’ or business partners’ information or other breach of
our information security can result in legal claims or legal proceedings, including regulatory investigations and actions, may
have a serious impact on our reputation and may adversely affect our business, operating results and financial condition.
Furthermore, the loss, disclosure or misappropriation of our business information may adversely affect our reputation, business,
operating results, and financial condition.
We may use AI in our business, and challenges with properly managing its use could result in reputational harm,
competitive harm and legal liability, and could have adverse effects on our business, operating results, and financial
condition.
We may incorporate AI solutions into our business, and we may leverage AI, including generative AI, into our business
operations. Our competitors or other third parties, like third-party distribution channels, may incorporate AI into their products
more quickly or more successfully than we do, which could impair our ability to compete effectively and could adversely affect
our business, operating results, and financial condition. In addition, there are significant risks in using AI, and there can be no
assurance that the use of AI will enhance our business or be beneficial to our business operations, including our efficiency or
our profitability.
Additionally, if our AI applications, or the AI applications of third parties, are based on data, algorithms or other inputs that are
flawed, or if our AI applications, or the AI applications of third parties, assist us in producing content, analyses or
recommendations that are, or are alleged to be, deficient, inaccurate or biased, our business, results of operations and financial
conditions may be adversely affected. The increased use of AI applications generally has resulted in, and may in the future
result in, cybersecurity incidents that implicate the personal data of end users of such applications. Any such cybersecurity
incidents related to our own use of AI applications may increase our cybersecurity risks, as well as the cybersecurity risks of
third parties, which could adversely affect our reputation and results of operations. AI also presents emerging ethical issues, and
if our use of AI becomes controversial, we may experience brand, reputational or competitive harm, or legal liability. The rapid
evolution of AI, including the potential regulation of AI by governmental or other regulatory agencies, will require significant
resources to develop, test and implement AI ethically and to minimize any unintended, harmful impacts.
39
Financing Risks
Our debt agreements and the Regulatory Agreement contain restrictive covenants that may limit our operating flexibility.
Our current debt agreements and the Regulatory Agreement include, and our future debt agreements and regulatory agreements
will likely include numerous financial and other covenants, imposing financial and operating restrictions on our business. Our
ability to comply with these provisions may be affected by general economic conditions, industry conditions and other events
beyond our control. There can be no assurance that we will be able to comply with these covenants. The failure to comply with
a financial covenant or other restriction contained in the agreements governing our indebtedness or in the Regulatory
Agreement may result in an event of default under such agreements or sanctions or fines under the Regulatory Agreement. An
event of default under our debt agreements could result in acceleration of some or all the applicable indebtedness as well as
other indebtedness of ours and the inability to borrow additional funds. We do not have, and cannot be certain we would be able
to obtain, sufficient funds to repay any such indebtedness if it is accelerated. Restrictions in our debt agreements or in the
Regulatory Agreement might affect our ability to operate our business, might limit our ability to take advantage of potential
business opportunities as they arise and might adversely affect the conduct of our current business, including by restricting our
ability to finance future operations and capital needs and limiting our ability to engage in other business activities.
Our existing and future indebtedness may limit our operating and financial flexibility.
As of December 31, 2025, we had approximately $4.94 billion of total indebtedness outstanding consisting of $1.47 billion
outstanding under our term loan facility (the “Term Loan”) pursuant to the terms of a credit agreement we entered into on
October 1, 2021 (the “Credit Agreement”) with Deutsche Bank AG New York Branch, as administrative agent and collateral
agent, and the lenders party thereto, and $1.5 billion in aggregate principal amount of outstanding 5.625% senior notes due
2029 and 5.875% senior notes due 2031. As of December 31, 2025, we had $588.1 million available under our revolving credit
facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility” or “Revolver” and, together with the Term Loan, the “Credit Facility”). On February
11, 2026, we issued $1.1 billion Term Loans and repaid the previously outstanding $1.47 billion Term Loan. This indebtedness
may have important negative consequences for us, including:
•limiting our ability to satisfy obligations;
•increasing vulnerability to general adverse economic and industry conditions;
•limiting flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our businesses and the markets in which we conduct
business;
•increasing vulnerability to, and limiting our ability to react to, changing market conditions, changes in industry and
economic downturns;
•limiting our ability to obtain additional financing to fund working capital requirements, capital expenditures, debt
service, general corporate or other obligations;
•subjecting us to a number of restrictive covenants that, among other things, limit our ability to pay dividends and
distributions, make acquisitions and dispositions, borrow additional funds and make capital expenditures and other
investments;
•limiting our ability to use operating cash flow in other areas of our business because we must dedicate a significant
portion of these funds to make principal and/or interest payments on outstanding debt;
•exposing us to interest rate risk due to the variable interest rate on borrowings under our Credit Facility;
•causing our failure to comply with the financial and restrictive covenants contained in our current or future
indebtedness, which could cause a default under that indebtedness (and other indebtedness of ours) and which, if not
cured or waived, could adversely affect us; and
•affecting our ability to renew gaming and other licenses necessary to conduct our business.
Though we have significant amounts of indebtedness outstanding, as of December 31, 2025, we have the ability to borrow the
remaining amount available under our Revolving Credit Facility and may issue or incur additional indebtedness to fund our
operations, including as necessary to execute on our growth strategy. Further, we may incur other liabilities that do not
constitute indebtedness under the Credit Facility. The risks that we face based on our outstanding indebtedness may intensify if
we incur additional indebtedness or financing obligations in the future.
40
Servicing our indebtedness and funding our other obligations requires a significant amount of cash, and our ability to
generate sufficient cash depends on many factors, some of which will be beyond our control.
Our ability to make payments on and refinance our indebtedness and to fund our operations and capital expenditures depends
upon our ability to generate cash flow and secure financing in the future. Our ability to generate future cash flow depends,
among other things, upon:
•general economic conditions;
•competition;
•legislative and regulatory factors affecting our operations and businesses; and
•our future operating performance.
Some of these factors will be beyond our control. There can be no assurance that our business will generate cash flow from
operations, or that future debt or equity financings will be available to us to enable us to pay our indebtedness or to fund other
needs. If our operating results and available cash are insufficient to meet our debt service obligations, we could face substantial
liquidity problems and might be required to dispose of material assets or operations to meet our debt service and other
obligations. We may not be able to consummate those dispositions or to obtain the proceeds that we could realize from them,
and these proceeds may not be adequate to meet any debt service obligations then due. The inability to generate cash flow could
result in us needing to refinance all or a portion of our indebtedness on or before maturity, including through the issuance of
additional debt or equity securities. If needed, there can be no assurance that we will be able to refinance any of our
indebtedness on favorable terms, or at all. Any inability to generate sufficient cash flow or refinance our indebtedness on
favorable terms could adversely affect our financial condition.
Our variable rate indebtedness exposes us to interest rate volatility, which could cause our debt service obligations to
increase significantly.
Borrowings under our Credit Facility are at variable rates of interest, such as the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”),
and expose us to interest rate volatility. If interest rates increase, our debt service obligations on certain of our variable rate
indebtedness will increase even though the amount borrowed remains the same.
A market downturn may negatively impact our access to financing.
A downturn in the financial markets or market volatility could negatively impact our ability to access capital and financing
(including financing necessary for acquisitions or to refinance our existing indebtedness) on acceptable terms and prices, that
we would otherwise need in connection with the operation of our business.
Risks Related to our Common Stock
The market price of our common stock could fluctuate significantly.
There have been and are periods of time when the US securities markets have experienced significant price fluctuations. These
price fluctuations may be day-to-day or they may last for extended periods of time. Significant price fluctuations in the
securities markets as a whole have caused, and may continue to cause, the market price of our common stock to be volatile and
subject to wide fluctuations. The trading volume of our common stock may fluctuate and cause significant price variations to
occur. Additional factors that could cause fluctuations in, or adversely affect, our stock price or trading volume include:
•general market and economic conditions, including market conditions in the gaming and hotel industries;
•actual or expected variations in quarterly operating results;
•differences between actual operating results and those expected by investors and analysts;
•sales of our common stock by current shareholders seeking liquidity in the public market;
•changes in recommendations by securities analysts;
•operations and stock performance of competitors;
•accounting charges, including charges relating to the impairment of goodwill;
•significant acquisitions or strategic alliances by us or by competitors;
•sales of our common stock by our directors and officers or significant investors; and
•recruitment or departure of key personnel.
There can be no assurance that the stock price of our common stock will not fluctuate or decline significantly in the future. In
addition, the stock market in general can experience considerable price and volume fluctuations that may be unrelated to our
performance.
41
Our largest shareholder owns a majority of our outstanding common stock, which could limit the ability of other
shareholders to influence corporate matters.
Standard General, our largest shareholder, beneficially owned 67.1% of our outstanding common stock as of February 28, 2026
and, therefore, is able to control the outcome of matters submitted to our stockholders for approval. Standard General’s
Managing Partner and Chief Investment Officer serves as the Executive Chairman of our Board. This concentrated control may
limit or preclude your ability to influence corporate matters.
We are a “controlled company” within the meaning of the corporate governance standards of NYSE. As a result, we qualify
for exemptions from certain corporate governance standards and our shareholders do not have the same protections
afforded to shareholders of companies that are subject to such requirements.
Standard General owns more than 50% of the total voting power of our outstanding common stock and we are a “controlled
company” under NYSE corporate governance standards. As a controlled company, we are not required by NYSE, for continued
listing of our common stock, to (i) have a majority of our board of directors consist of independent directors, (ii) maintain a
nominating and governance committee that is composed entirely of independent directors with a written charter addressing the
committee’s purpose and responsibilities or (iii) maintain a compensation committee that is composed entirely of independent
directors with a written charter addressing the committee’s purpose and responsibilities. For so long as we qualify as a
“controlled company,” we may rely on some or all of these exemptions from NYSE listing requirements, subject to the
provisions set forth in our Sixth Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation. In accordance with these exemptions, we
have elected not to comply with certain corporate governance requirements. Specifically, we no longer have a Nominating and
Governance Committee composed of entirely independent directors.
Accordingly, our shareholders do not have the same protections afforded to stockholders of companies that are subject to all of
the NYSE corporate governance requirements and the ability of our independent directors to influence our business policies and
affairs may be reduced. As a result, our status as a “controlled company” could make our common stock less attractive to some
investors or could otherwise harm our common stock price.
We are not paying dividends and any decision to do so in the future will be at the discretion of our Board.
The timing, declaration, amount, and payment of any future dividends will be at the discretion of our Board and will depend
upon, among other factors, our earnings, cash requirements, financial condition, requirements to comply with the covenants
under our debt agreements and the Regulatory Agreement, legal considerations and other factors that our Board deems relevant.
If we do not pay cash dividends on our common stock in the future, then the return on an investment in our common stock will
depend upon our future stock price and other forms of returning capital. There is no guarantee that our common stock will
maintain its value or appreciate in value.
We are a holding company and will depend on our subsidiaries for dividends, distributions and other payments.
We are structured as a holding company, a legal entity separate and distinct from our subsidiaries. Our only significant asset is
the capital stock or other equity interests of our operating subsidiaries. As a holding company, we will conduct all of our
business through our subsidiaries. Consequently, our principal source of cash flow will be dividends and distributions from our
subsidiaries. Our right to participate in a distribution of assets upon a subsidiary’s liquidation or reorganization will be subject
to the prior claims of the subsidiary’s creditors.

ITEM 1C.CYBERSECURIT Y
Risk Management and Strategy
We have established policies and processes for assessing, identifying, and managing material risks from cybersecurity threats,
and have integrated these processes into our overall risk management systems and practices. We routinely assess material risks
from cybersecurity threats, including any potential unauthorized attack on, or use of, our information systems that may result in
adverse effects on the confidentiality, integrity, or availability of our information systems or any information stored therein.
Our security incident response framework classifies potential incidents by risk levels, and we prioritize our incident mitigation
and impact evaluation efforts based on those risk classifications or security incident categories, while focusing on maintaining
the resiliency of our systems. The risk assessments support the identification of reasonably foreseeable internal and external
risks, the likelihood of occurrence and any potential damage that could result from such risks, and the sufficiency of existing
policies, procedures, systems, controls, and other safeguards in place to manage such risks.
Following these risk assessments, we design, implement, and maintain reasonable safeguards to minimize the identified risks;
reasonably address any identified gaps in existing safeguards; update existing safeguards as necessary; and monitor the
effectiveness of our controls. Some of the other steps we have taken to detect, identify, assess, classify, and attempt to mitigate
cybersecurity risks include:
•Adopting and periodically reviewing and updating information security and privacy policies;
•Conducting targeted audits and penetration tests throughout the year, using both internal and external resources;
•Complying with the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI-DSS);
•Implementing an Information Security Management System (ISMS) that is designed to generally align with the
requirements of the ISO 27001 standard;
•Implementing a Privacy Information Management System (PIMS) that is designed to align with the requirements of
the ISO 27701 standard;
•Engaging an experienced third party to independently evaluate our information security systems on a regular basis;
•Adopting a vendor risk management program, which includes receiving the results of cybersecurity evaluations
conducted on certain vendors engaged in high-risk data processing;
•Providing security and data protection training and awareness to our employees, contractors and key partners with
access to sensitive information and systems; and
•Maintaining cyber liability insurance.
Although certain of our systems are designed to align with requirements of ISO 27701, this does not mean that we will meet
any particular technical standards, specifications, or requirements, but rather we use ISO 27701 and other cybersecurity
standards as a guide to help us identify, assess, and manage cybersecurity risks relevant to our business.
At this time, we have not identified risks from known cybersecurity threats, including as a result of any prior cybersecurity
incidents, that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect us, including our operations, business
strategy, results of operations, or financial condition. For additional information regarding risks from cybersecurity threats,
please refer to Item 1A “Risk Factors -Cybersecurity, Data Privacy and Technology Risks.
Governance
Cybersecurity and data protection are integrated into our overall risk management and oversight framework. Our Board of
Directors periodically receives reports from our committees, cybersecurity management, external professional advisors, and
other relevant Company personnel regarding various types of risks faced by the Company and the Company’s risk mitigation
efforts related thereto, including cybersecurity risks and related mitigation efforts.
The Board also receives presentations from management regarding trends in cybersecurity risks and risk mitigation initiatives
and plans, including briefings on recent breaches at other companies and key takeaways and lessons learned that are applicable
to our business. The Board will also periodically review key cybersecurity and data privacy related benchmarks for the
Company.
43
Management’s Responsibilities
In the event we identify a potential cybersecurity issue, we have defined procedures for responding to such issues, including
procedures that address when and how to engage with Company management, our Board of Directors, other stakeholders, and
law enforcement when responding to such issues.
We have a dedicated management team overseeing our cybersecurity initiatives, led by our Chief Information Officer, our Vice
President and Global Data Privacy Officer, and our Vice President of Cybersecurity. Our Chief Information Officer has over 25
years’ experience overseeing and managing information technology teams and complex IT systems, and our Vice President of
Cybersecurity has over 15 years’ experience developing and managing cybersecurity functions and strategies. Our Vice
President of Global Data Privacy is a recognized leader in the industry with over 7 years’ experience in managing global data
privacy programs.
Our cybersecurity management team regularly meets with industry trust groups, senior executives and other team members to
provide oversight with respect to our cybersecurity risk detection, identification, assessment, classification, and mitigation
efforts.
The Company has a dedicated Security Forum and a Data Protection Committee comprising members from our senior
leadership that convene on a regular basis to receive updates from our committees, cybersecurity management, external
professional advisors, and other relevant Company personnel about the Cybersecurity and Privacy programs we have in place;
discuss and assess material risks and planned risk mitigation, incidents and planned remediation efforts, trends observed,
consider cybersecurity-related proposals, and review and adopt changes in cybersecurity policies.

ITEM 3.LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
We are party to various legal proceedings which have arisen in the normal course of our business. Such proceedings can be
costly, time consuming and unpredictable and, therefore, no assurance can be given that the final outcome of such proceedings
will not materially impact our consolidated financial condition or results of operations. While we maintain insurance coverage
that we believe is adequate to mitigate the risks of such proceedings, no assurance can be given that the amount or scope of
existing insurance coverage will be sufficient to cover losses arising from such matters. Estimated losses are accrued for these
proceedings when the loss is probable and can be estimated. The current liability for the estimated losses associated with these
proceedings is not material to our consolidated financial condition and those estimated losses are not expected to have a
material impact on our results of operations.

Dividend Policy
We do not currently intend to pay any dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. Any future determinations
relating to our dividend policies will be made at the discretion of our Board and will depend on conditions then existing,
including our financial condition, results of operations, contractual restrictions, capital and regulatory requirements and other
factors our Board may deem relevant.
Holders
At February 28, 2026, there were 6 holders of record of our common stock, although we believe there are a larger number of
beneficial owners of our common stock because many shares are held by brokers and other institutions on behalf of
shareholders. Standard General, our largest shareholder, beneficially owned 67.1% of our outstanding common stock as of
February 28, 2026.

Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities
On June 14, 2019, we announced that the Board approved a capital return program (the “Capital Return Program”) under which
we may expend a total of up to $250 million for a share repurchase program and payment of dividends. On February 10, 2020,
and October 4, 2021, the Board approved an additional $100 million and $350 million for stock repurchases and payment of
dividends, respectively. As of December 31, 2025, $95.5 million was available for use under the Capital Return Program.
Share repurchases under publicly announced programs may be effected in various ways, which could include open-market or
private repurchase transactions, accelerated share repurchase programs, tender offers or other transactions. The amount, timing
and terms of any capital transactions will be determined based on prevailing market conditions and other factors and may be
suspended or discontinued at any time. There is no fixed time period to complete the capital returns.
During the fourth quarter of 2025, the Company did not make any repurchases of equity securities.

ITEM 7.MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS
You should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations together with our
consolidated financial statements and the related notes and other financial information included elsewhere in this Annual
Report on Form 10-K. Some of the information contained in this discussion and analysis or set forth elsewhere in this Annual
Report on Form 10-K, including information with respect to our plans and strategy for our business, includes forward-looking
statements that involve risks and uncertainties. You should review Item 1A. “Risk Factors” and “Cautionary Note Regarding
Forward-Looking Statements” in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for a discussion of important factors that could cause
actual results to differ materially from the results described in or implied by the forward-looking statements contained in the
following discussion and analysis.
Executive Overview
Our strategic initiatives in 2025 continued to advance our transformation into a more diversified, digitally enabled, and globally
scaled gaming and entertainment company.
•Portfolio Expansion: Completed the Merger with Standard General and Queen Casino, adding four regional properties
to our Casinos & Resorts portfolio and strengthening our US market presence.
•Strategic Transformation: Completed the multi-stage combination with Intralot, creating a unified global footprint and
strengthening both our B2B and B2C capabilities.
•International Growth: Invested A$200 million for a significant economic interest in The Star, expanding our global
reach.
•Bally’s Chicago: Completed the initial public offering and private placements of Bally’s Chicago Inc. and advanced
construction of the permanent casino supported by enhanced data-driven customer engagement.
•Major Developments: Announced planned development for an integrated resort and Major League Baseball stadium at
the former Tropicana Las Vegas site and secured a New York downstate commercial casino license for our anticipated
Bally’s Bronx integrated resort.
Together, we believe these steps continue to position the Company for sustainable long-term growth across our land-based and
interactive platforms, united under a single, leading brand.
Business Development Projects
Our business development projects are summarized above in “Our Strategy and Business Developments” section above and in
Note 7 “Business Combinations” to our consolidated financial statements presented in Part II, Item 8 of this Annual Report on
Form 10-K.
47
Macroeconomic and Other Factors
Our business is subject to risks caused by global economic challenges, including those caused by public health crises such as
the COVID-19 pandemic, the impact of global and regional conflicts, rising inflation, rising interest rates and supply-chain
disruptions, that can cause economic uncertainty and volatility. These challenges can negatively impact discretionary consumer
spending and could result in a reduction in visitors to our properties, including those that stay in our hotels, or discretionary
spending by our customers on entertainment and leisure activities. In addition, inflation generally affects our business by
increasing our cost of labor. In periods of sustained inflation, it may be difficult to effectively control such increases to our
costs and retain key personnel.
Key Performance Indicators
The key performance indicator used in managing our business is consolidated Adjusted EBITDA and segment Adjusted
EBITDAR which are non-GAAP measures. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings, or loss, for the Company, or where noted
its reporting segments, before, in each case, interest expense, net of interest income, provision (benefit) for income taxes,
depreciation and amortization, non-operating (income) expense, acquisition and other transaction related costs, share-based
compensation and certain other gains or losses as well as, when presented for our reporting segments, an adjustment related to
the allocation of corporate cost among segments. Segment Adjusted EBITDAR is Adjusted EBITDA (as defined above) for the
Company’s reportable segments, plus rent expense associated with triple net operating leases with GLPI for the real estate
assets used in the operation of the Bally’s casinos and the assumption of the lease for real estate and land underlying the
operations of the Bally’s Lake Tahoe property.
We use consolidated Adjusted EBITDA and segment Adjusted EBITDAR to analyze the performance of our business and they
are used as determining factors for performance-based compensation for members of our management team. We use
consolidated Adjusted EBITDA and segment Adjusted EBITDAR when evaluating operating performance because we believe
that the inclusion or exclusion of certain recurring and non-recurring items is necessary to provide a more fulsome
understanding of our core operating results and as a means to evaluate period-to-period performance. Also, we present
consolidated Adjusted EBITDA and segment Adjusted EBITDAR because they are used by some investors and creditors as
indicators of the strength and performance of ongoing business operations, including our ability to service debt, and to fund
capital expenditures, acquisitions and operations. These calculations are commonly used as a basis for investors, analysts and
credit rating agencies to evaluate and compare operating performance and value companies within our industry. Consolidated
Adjusted EBITDA and segment Adjusted EBITDAR information is presented because management believes that they are
commonly used measures of performance in the gaming industry and that they are considered by many to be key indicators of
our operating results.
Consolidated Adjusted EBITDAR is used outside of our financial statements solely as a valuation metric. Consolidated
Adjusted EBITDAR is defined as consolidated Adjusted EBITDA plus rent expense associated with triple net operating leases.
Consolidated Adjusted EBITDAR is an additional metric used by analysts in valuing gaming companies subject to triple net
leases since it eliminates the effects of variability in leasing methods and capital structures. This metric is included as
supplemental disclosure because (i) we believe Consolidated Adjusted EBITDAR is used by gaming operator analysts and
investors to determine the equity value of gaming operators and (ii) financial analysts refer to Consolidated Adjusted
EBITDAR when valuing our business. We believe Consolidated Adjusted EBITDAR is useful for equity valuation purposes
because (i) its calculation isolates the effects of financing real estate, and (ii) using a multiple of Consolidated Adjusted
EBITDAR to calculate enterprise value allows for an adjustment to the balance sheet to recognize estimated liabilities arising
from operating leases related to real estate.
Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA and segment Adjusted EBITDAR should not be construed as alternatives to net income, the
most directly comparable GAAP measure, as indicators of our performance. In addition, consolidated Adjusted EBITDA and
segment Adjusted EBITDAR as used by us may not be defined in the same manner as other companies in our industry, and, as
a result, may not be comparable to similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures of other companies. Consolidated Adjusted
EBITDAR should not be viewed as a measure of overall operating performance or considered in isolation or as an alternative to
net income, because it excludes the rent expense associated with our triple net operating leases with GLPI and the lease for real
estate and land underlying the operations of the Bally’s Lake Tahoe property.

Segment Information
During the first quarter of 2025, the Company moved a component of the North America Interactive operating segment into a
separate operating segment, which is reported in the Corporate & Other category. In the fourth quarter of 2025, the Company
further updated its operating and reportable segments in connection with the Intralot Transaction. These changes were made to
better align with the Company’s strategic growth initiatives and how its chief operating decision maker evaluates performance
and allocation resource. As a result, the Company determined it has four operating and reportable segments: Casinos & Resorts,
Bally's Intralot B2B, Bally's Intralot B2C and North America Interactive. Prior period reportable segment results and related
disclosures have been conformed to reflect the Company’s current reportable segments. Refer to “Our Operating Structure” in
Part I, Item 1 “Business” of this Annual Report on Form 10-K and Note 20 “Segment Reporting” to our consolidated financial
statements presented in Part II, Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional information on our segment reporting
structure.
The following table sets forth certain financial information associated with results of operations. Non-gaming revenue includes
hotel, food and beverage, technology services, licensing and retail, entertainment and other revenue. Non-gaming expenses

The predecessor period from January 1, 2025 to February 7, 2025 and successor period from February 8, 2025 to
December 31, 2025, compared to the year ended December 31, 2024.
Total revenue
Our total revenue consisted of the following:

| Successor |  |  | Predecessor
(in thousands) | Period from February 8, 2025 to December 31, 2025 |  |  | Period from January 1, 2025 to February 7, 2025 |  | Year Ended December 31, 2024
Gaming | $1,989,454 |  |  | $185,767 |  | $2,051,668
Hotel | 119,409 |  |  | 11,006 |  | 148,693
Food and beverage | 125,877 |  |  | 11,304 |  | 135,213
Technology Services | 64,369 |  |  | — |  | —
Licensing | 20,880 |  |  | 3,720 |  | 6,861
Retail, entertainment and other | 116,200 |  |  | 8,701 |  | 108,043
Total revenue | $2,436,189 |  |  | $220,498 |  | $2,450,478

Total revenue for the Predecessor period from January 1, 2025 to February 7, 2025 and the Successor period from February 8,
2025 to December 31, 2025 increased 8.4%, from $2.5 billion for the year ended December 31, 2024 (Predecessor). Increases
in total revenue from the year ended December 31, 2024 are primarily driven by the revenue additions from Queen, beginning
on February 8, 2025, and the Intralot entities, beginning October 8, 2025, contributing $216.0 million and $98.2 million,
respectively, to the Successor period from February 8, 2025 to December 31, 2025. These increases were partially offset by a
$170.1 million decrease in revenue from our previous markets associated with the sale of the Carved-Out Business in the fourth
quarter of 2024.
Gaming and non-gaming expenses
During the Predecessor period from January 1, 2025 to February 7, 2025 and the Successor period from February 8, 2025 to
December 31, 2025, gaming and non-gaming expenses grew proportionally relative to total revenue. The expenses for the year
ended December 31, 2024 (Predecessor) amounted to $1.1 billion. This growth in expense compared to the prior year is
primarily due to the changes in revenue year over year.
General and administrative
General and administrative expense for the Predecessor period from January 1, 2025 to February 7, 2025 and the Successor
period from February 8, 2025 to December 31, 2025 compared to the year ended December 31, 2024 (Predecessor), increased
20.6% or $214.7 million, from $1.0 billion. These increases in the year to date comparable periods were mainly attributable to
additional costs for the Queen properties and Intralot entities of $91.7 million and $54.6 million, respectively, costs incurred in
connection with the Merger Agreement and Intralot Transaction of $33.9 million and $40.5 million, respectively, and a $17.1
million provision for credit loss on long-term note receivable related to the Carved-Out Business. These increases were partially
offset by the Loss on disposal of business of $27.8 million recorded in the prior year related to the sale of the Carved-Out
Business in the fourth quarter of 2024.
Impairment charges
In the Successor period from February 8, 2025 to December 31, 2025, we recorded total impairment charges of $181.6 million
which included $109.1 million and $72.5 million impairment charges in the Bally's Intralot B2B segment related to its
intangible assets and goodwill, respectively, due to declining projected cash flows within its licensing business.
Depreciation and amortization
Depreciation and amortization expense for the Predecessor period from January 1, 2025 to February 7, 2025 and the Successor
period from February 8, 2025 to December 31, 2025 decreased $64.1 million from $379.5 million compared to the Predecessor
year ended December 31, 2024. Changes year over year are primarily due to the closure of our Tropicana Las Vegas property in
the first quarter of 2024, which caused the Company to record $80.1 million of accelerated depreciation in the prior year,
partially offset by a $22.8 million increase in expense from the Intralot entities in the fourth quarter of 2025.
51
Loss from operations
Loss from operations for the Predecessor period from January 1, 2025 to February 7, 2025 and the Successor period from
February 8, 2025 to December 31, 2025 increased $40.1 million compared to the Predecessor year ended December 31, 2024.
These increased losses were primarily due to the incremental increase in Merger and Acquisition and integration costs of $106.1
million, partially offset by the decrease in impairment charges of $67.3 million.
Other (expense) income
Total Other expense, net for the Predecessor period from January 1, 2025 to February 7, 2025 and the Successor period from
February 8, 2025 to December 31, 2025 increased $75.7 million compared to the Predecessor year ended December 31, 2024.
These increases were primarily due to the $93.1 million loss on debt extinguishment recorded in the Successor period from
February 8, 2025 to December 31, 2025, increased interest expense from to higher borrowings and related interest rates year-
over-year and increased foreign exchange losses, partially offset by increased fair value gains of $219.0 million recorded in the
Successor period on the Company’s fair value option assets.
Provision for income taxes
The Company recorded a provision for income taxes of $47.6 million, $0.7 million, and $15.3 million during the period from
February 8, 2025 to December 31, 2025 (Successor), period from January 1, 2025 to February 7, 2025 (Predecessor), and the
year ended December 31, 2024 (Predecessor), respectively. The effective tax rate was (7.70)%, (1.32)%, and (2.76)%,
respectively, for these same periods. The effective tax rates during the successor periods in the 2025 calendar year differed from
the US federal statutory rate of 21%, creating a provision for income tax on the Company’s Loss before income taxes, largely
due to an increase in the valuation allowance and the negative rate differential driven by the increased impairment charges
within our foreign entities.
Net loss and loss per share
Net loss for the Predecessor period from January 1, 2025 to February 7, 2025 and the Successor period from February 8, 2025
to December 31, 2025 was $51.0 million and $650.1 million, respectively. Net loss for the Predecessor year ended December
31, 2024 was $567.8 million. These changes were all primarily attributable to the factors noted above.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overview
We are a holding company. Our ability to fund our obligations depends on existing cash on hand, cash flow from our
subsidiaries and our ability to raise capital. Our primary sources of liquidity and capital resources have been cash on hand, cash
flow from operations, borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility (as defined herein) and proceeds from the issuance of
debt and equity securities. We assess liquidity in terms of the ability to generate cash or obtain financing in order to fund
operating, investing and debt service requirements. Our primary ongoing cash requirements include the funding of operations,
capital expenditures, acquisitions and other investments in line with our business strategy and debt repayment obligations and
interest payments. Our strategy has been to maintain moderate leverage and substantial capital resources in order to take
advantage of opportunities, to invest in our businesses and acquire properties at what we believe to be attractive valuations. As
such, we have continued to invest in our land-based casino business and build on our interactive/iGaming business. We believe
that existing cash balances, operating cash flows and availability under our Revolving Credit Facility, as explained below, will
be sufficient to meet funding needs for operating, capital expenditure and debt service purposes.

Operating Activities
Net cash used in operating activities for the Predecessor period from January 1, 2025 to February 7, 2025 and the Successor
period from February 8, 2025 to December 31, 2025 was $91.2 million compared to $114.0 million net cash provided by
operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2024 (Predecessor). The increase in cash used was primarily driven by
increased net losses in the Successor period from February 8, 2025 to December 31, 2025 and the predecessor period from
January 1, 2025 to February 7, 2025 of $148.8 million, coupled with the changes in working capital.
Investing Activities
Net cash provided by investing activities for the Successor period from February 8, 2025 to December 31, 2025 of $1.8 billion
and cash used in investing for the Predecessor period from January 1, 2025 to February 7, 2025 of $17.7 million, compared to
$97.8 million of cash used in investing for the Year Ended December 31, 2024 (Predecessor) was driven primarily by net cash
acquired from acquisitions of $2.1 billion, offset by cash paid for the Star Investment of $127.6 million and capital expenditures
of $167.9 million.
Financing Activities
Net cash used in financing activities for the Successor period from February 8, 2025 to December 31, 2025 of $1.1 billion and
cash provided by financing for the Predecessor period from January 1, 2025 to February 7, 2025 of $98.0 million, compared to
$287.8 million of cash used in financing for the Year Ended December 31, 2024 (Predecessor) was driven primarily by
repayments of long term debt of $1.9 billion and share repurchases of $416.2 million, offset by issuances of long term debt of
$1.3 billion
Capital Return Program
As of December 31, 2025 (Successor), there was $95.5 million available for use under the Capital Return Program, subject to
limitations in our regulatory and debt agreements. Future share repurchases may be effected in various ways, which could
include open-market or private repurchase transactions, accelerated stock repurchase programs, tender offers or other
transactions. The amount, timing and terms of any return of capital transaction will be determined based on prevailing market
conditions and other factors. There is no fixed time period to complete share repurchases.
We did not pay cash dividends during the period from February 8, 2025 to December 31, 2025 (Successor) or period from
January 1, 2025 to February 7, 2025 (Predecessor), nor do we currently intend to pay any dividends on our common stock in the
foreseeable future. Any future determinations relating to our dividend policies will be made at the discretion of our Board and
will depend on conditions then existing, including our financial condition, results of operations, contractual restrictions, capital
and regulatory requirements and other factors our Board may deem relevant.
Debt and Lease Obligations
Unsecured Notes
On August 20, 2021, we issued $750.0 million aggregate principal amount of 5.625% senior notes due 2029 and $750.0 million
aggregate principal amount of 5.875% senior notes due 2031. On October 1, 2021, upon the closing of the Gamesys acquisition,
we assumed the issuer’s obligation under the unsecured notes.
The indenture contains covenants that limit the ability of the Company and its restricted subsidiaries to, among other things, (i)
incur additional indebtedness, (ii) pay dividends on or make distributions in respect of capital stock or make certain other
restricted payments or investments, (iii) enter into certain transactions with affiliates, (iv) sell or otherwise dispose of assets, (v)
create or incur liens and (vi) merge, consolidate or sell all or substantially all of the Company’s assets. These covenants are
subject to exceptions and qualifications set forth in the indenture.
55
2028 Notes
In connection with the closing of the Merger on February 7, 2025, we entered into a note purchase agreement and issued $500
million in aggregate principal amount of first lien senior secured notes due October 2, 2028, at an annual interest rate of 11%,
payable quarterly (the “2028 Notes”). These notes were guaranteed by the same restricted subsidiaries that guarantee the credit
facilities under the Credit Agreement (as defined below) and secured by the same collateral securing the credit facilities under
the Credit Agreement. The note purchase agreement mandated redemption offers in certain situations, such as asset sales and
unpermitted debt issuances, with specific redemption premiums applicable within the first two years. After two years, notes can
be redeemed at par. The note purchase agreement also included covenants limiting, among other things additional indebtedness,
dividend payments, asset sales, investments, and liens, subject to certain exceptions and qualifications. In October 2025, the
Company paid down the entire $500 million outstanding on its 2028 Notes as further described below.
Credit Facility
On October 1, 2021, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries entered into a credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with
Deutsche Bank AG New York Branch, as administrative agent (in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”) and collateral
agent (in such capacity, the “Collateral Agent”), and the other lenders party thereto, providing for a senior secured term loan
facility in an initial aggregate principal amount of $1.945 billion (the “Term Loan Facility”), which was scheduled to mature in
2028, and a senior secured revolving credit facility in an initial aggregate principal amount of $620.0 million (the “Revolving
Credit Facility”), which had an initial maturity date in 2026.
In September 2025, the Company executed a Third Amendment to the Credit Agreement (“Amendment No. 3” and the Credit
Agreement, as so amended, the “Amended Credit Agreement”), by and among the Company, the subsidiaries of the Company
party thereto as guarantors, the lenders party thereto, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral agent, and an Incremental
Joinder Agreement (the “Incremental Joinder Agreement”) with Jefferies Finance LLC and the Administrative Agent. The
Incremental Joinder Agreement increased the available commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility by $50 million to
$670 million. Amendment No. 3 and the Incremental Joinder Agreement collectively extended the maturity date of a portion of
the Revolving Credit Facility and updated certain covenants and pricing provisions for the Revolving Credit Facility.
Following the effectiveness of Amendment No. 3 and the Incremental Joinder Agreement which occurred on January 6, 2026, a
portion of the Revolving Credit Facility will mature in 2028, while the remaining portion will continue to mature on its
originally scheduled maturity date in 2026. Amendment No. 3 and the Amended Credit Agreement also provide for reductions
in revolving commitments and related prepayments if specified transactions are completed. The Revolving Credit Facility will
continue to bear interest, at the Company’s option, at a SOFR-based or base-rate benchmark plus an applicable margin
determined by the Company’s consolidated total-leverage ratio. The credit facilities under the Amended Credit Agreement
continue to be guaranteed by the Company’s restricted subsidiaries (subject to customary exceptions) and secured by a first-
priority lien on substantially all of the assets of the Company and such guarantors. Amendment No. 3 also refined the financial
maintenance covenant applicable to the revolving lenders and reduced the utilization threshold at which the covenant becomes
effective to 25%.
The Amended Credit Agreement allows the Company to increase the size of the Term Loan Facility or request one or more
incremental term loan facilities or increase commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility or add one or more incremental
revolving facilities in an aggregate amount not to exceed the greater of $325 million and 50% of the Company’s consolidated
EBITDA for the most recent four-quarter period plus or minus certain amounts as specified in the Amended Credit Agreement,
including an unlimited amount subject to compliance with specified financial ratios.
The Amended Credit Agreement contains covenants that limit the ability of the Company and its restricted subsidiaries to,
among other things, incur additional indebtedness, pay dividends or make certain other restricted payments, sell assets, make
certain investments, and grant liens. These covenants are subject to exceptions and qualifications set forth in the Amended
Credit Agreement. The Revolving Credit Facility also includes certain financial covenants the Company is required to maintain
throughout the term of the Revolving Credit Facility. These financial covenants include a provision whereby, in the event
borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility exceed 25% of the total revolving commitment, the Company is required to
maintain a first lien secured indebtedness to Adjusted EBITDA ratio of 4.00 to 1.00. As of December 31, 2025 (Successor), the
Company was in compliance with all applicable covenants as in effect as of such date.
With proceeds from the Transaction Agreement, the Company paid down $500.0 million of its secured indebtedness, applied
pro rata across its 2028 Notes and Term Loan Facility. Subsequently, the Company satisfied the remaining principal balance of
its 2028 Notes with an additional payment of $395.0 million, and incurred and paid a make-whole payment pursuant to the note
purchase agreement. Additionally, the Company repaid all outstanding amounts under the Revolving Credit Facility.
56
The Company is a party to certain currency swaps which synthetically convert $500 million of its Term Loan Facility to an
equivalent fixed-rate Euro-denominated instrument, due October 2028, with a weighted average fixed interest rate of
approximately 6.69% per annum. The Company is also a party to additional currency swaps to synthetically convert $200
million, notional, of its floating rate Term Loan Facility, to an equivalent GBP-denominated floating rate instrument, due
October 2026. Additionally, as part of the Company’s risk management program to manage its overall interest rate exposure,
the Company has entered into a series of interest rate contracts in a notional aggregate amount of $1.00 billion, to further
manage the Company’s exposure to interest rate movements associated with the Company’s variable rate Term Loan Facility
through its synthetic conversion to fixed rate debt. The tenor of these contracts were matched with the maturity of the Term
Loan Facility tranche maturing on October 1, 2028.
Intralot Greek Retail Bond
On February 27, 2024, Intralot established a common bond loan program (the “Intralot Greek Retail Bond”) for the issuance of
up to €130.0 million aggregate principal amount of bonds, with a minimum issuance of €120.0 million The bonds admitted to

Intralot’s subsidiaries.
Intralot may not redeem the bonds prior to the expiration of the second interest period following the issue date. Thereafter,
Intralot may redeem all or a portion of the bonds, subject to a minimum redemption amount of €15.0 million and a requirement
that at least €50.0 million in aggregate principal amount remain outstanding after any partial redemption. Early redemption is
subject to the payment of applicable premiums.
In the event of a change of control each bondholder has the right to require Intralot to repurchase of part or all of such
bondholder’s bonds at a price equal to 101% of the nominal value, plus accrued and unpaid interest and any additional amounts.
Intralot Greek Senior Facilities Agreement
On October 3, 2025, Intralot Capital Luxembourg S.A. (“Intralot Capital”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Intralot, entered into a

CrediaBank S.A. and other parties, providing for an amortizing euro-denominated term loan facility in an aggregate amount up

Refer to Note 14 “Long-Term Debt” in Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K for further information.
Operating leases
The Company is committed under various operating lease agreements for real estate and property used in operations. Minimum
rent payable under operating leases was $3.41 billion as of December 31, 2025 (Successor), of which $236.9 million is due
within the next twelve months. Refer to Note 15 “Leases” in Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K for further
information.
GLPI leases
As of December 31, 2025 (Successor), the Company leases certain properties from GLPI under two separate master lease
agreements, the “Master Lease,” and the “Master Lease No. 2.” The Company’s Bally’s Evansville, Bally’s Dover, Bally’s
Quad Cities, Bally’s Black Hawk, Bally’s Tiverton and Hard Rock Biloxi properties are leased under the terms of the “Master
Lease” which requires combined initial minimum annual payments of $101.5 million. The Company’s Bally’s Kansas City and
Bally’s Shreveport properties are leased under the terms of the “Master Lease No. 2” which requires combined initial minimum
annual payments of $32.2 million. Both leases have an initial term of 15 years and include four, five-year options to renew and
are subject to a minimum 1% annual escalation or greater escalation dependent on the consumer price index (“CPI”).
Following the Merger, the Company also has a master lease agreement through Queen with GLPI, the “Queen Master Lease”,
with The Queen Baton Rouge, Bally's Baton Rouge Casino and Hotel, Casino Queen Marquette and DraftKings at Casino
Queen properties originally being leased under the terms of the Queen Master Lease, which required combined initial minimum
annual payments of $31.7 million. The Queen Master Lease has an initial term of 15 years and includes four, five-year options
to renew and is subject to annual escalation. Effective July 1, 2025, the DraftKings at Casino Queen and The Queen Baton
Rouge properties were transferred to Master Lease No. 2 and the associated annual payments of $28.9 million was reallocated
from the Casino Queen Master Lease to Master Lease No. 2. This was treated as a lease modification event where lease
payments were reallocated across components of the Master Lease No. 2 on a relative fair value basis and the right of use assets
and lease liabilities were remeasured.
In addition to the properties under the master leases explained above, the Company also entered into a lease with GLPI for the
land associated with Tropicana Las Vegas. This lease has an initial term of 50 years, with the possibility of extending up to 99
years through renewal options, and requires initial minimum annual payments of $10.5 million, subject to minimum 1% annual
escalation or greater escalation dependent on CPI. In 2024, the Company modified the lease and GLPI paid $48.6 million to the
Company to fund the demolition of the building at the Tropicana Las Vegas site in exchange for increasing initial annual
payments by $4.1 million, subject to a minimum 1% annual increase or greater based on CPI, for a total modified initial
minimum annual payment of $14.6 million.
59
On July 17, 2025, the Company entered into the Chicago MLA, as described in Note 15 “Leases” in Item 8 of this Annual
Report on Form 10-K, with GLP, that amended the existing ground lease for the property on which the Company plans to
develop its Permanent Facility and a development agreement with GLP pursuant to which GLP has committed to advance up to
$940 million for the payment of hard costs used to construct the Permanent Facility in exchange for increasing the amount of
rent payable to GLP under the Chicago MLA.
The Chicago MLA has an initial term of 15 years and includes four, five-year options to renew and is subject to annual
escalation. Annual rent under the Chicago MLA is $20 million, with additional rent equal to 8.5% of the GLP Development
Advances that are granted to the Company. The amended and restated ground lease was considered a lease termination in the
third quarter due to the Company ceasing to control the use of the land effective upon signing of the Chicago MLA. As a result
of the termination, the right of use asset and lease liability were derecognized, and a $0.5 million gain on lease termination was
recorded. Effective with the signing of the Development Agreement, the Company reclassified construction in process to
Accounts Receivable related to assets for which title has transferred to GLP and the Company expects to receive funding.
Additionally, to the extent costs exceed the amount to be reimbursed by GLP, such costs are considered prepaid rent, which will
be added to the associated operating lease right of use asset once the lease commences. As of December 31, 2025 (Successor),
the construction receivable balance was $63.2 million, classified within Accounts receivable, net, and the prepaid rent balance
was $175.8 million, classified within Other assets. The Company incurred a loss on sale of assets to GLP of $8.7 million during
the third quarter of 2025 related to construction costs previously capitalized that were determined not to represent prepaid rent.
This loss is classified within General and administrative on the Consolidated Statement of Operations. During the fourth quarter
of 2025, the Company received reimbursements from GLP totaling $201.6 million.
On February 11, 2026, the Company completed the previously announced sale-leaseback of its Bally’s Twin River property to
GLP for total consideration of $700 million, with initial annual rent of $56 million. Following the sale-leaseback, Bally’s Twin
River is leased under the terms of Master Lease No. 2.
The Star Entertainment Group Investment
On April 7, 2025, the Company entered into a Binding Term Sheet with The Star, an ASX-listed company, to invest up to
A$300.0 million in a multi-tranche issuance of convertible notes and subordinated debt (the “Investment”). On April 8, 2025,
The Star announced a commitment from its largest shareholder, Investment Holdings Pty, to subscribe for A$100.0 million of
the Investment, reducing the Company’s commitment to A$200.0 million. During the second quarter of 2025 (Successor), the
Company funded A$133.3 million, consisting of Tranche 1A convertible notes of A$22.2 million (the “Convertible Notes”) and
subordinated debt with a principal amount of A$111.1 million (the “Subordinated Notes”). Additionally, on May 23, 2025, the
Company and The Star entered into a Subscription Agreement and a Subordination Deed Poll in favor of certain of The Star’s
senior lenders. During the fourth quarter of 2025 (Successor), the remainder of the Company’s A$66.7 million commitment was
funded in the form of subordinated debt. Additionally, upon the Company’s receipt of regulatory approval of the Investment in
the fourth quarter of 2025 (Successor), the Subordinated Notes settled into Convertible Notes on a cashless basis. Subsequently,
the Company converted the principal amount of the Convertible Notes into 2.5 billion ordinary shares of The Star at a
conversion price of A$0.08 per share, giving the Company a 37.7% equity interest in The Star. As of December 31, 2025
(Successor) the Company accounts for its investment in The Star as an equity method investment under the fair value option of
ASC 825, Financial Instruments.
Capital Expenditures
Capital expenditures are accounted for as either project, maintenance or capitalized software expenditures. Project capital
expenditures are for fixed asset additions that expand an existing facility or create a new facility. Maintenance capital
expenditures are expenditures to replace existing fixed assets with a useful life greater than one year that are obsolete, worn out
or no longer cost effective to repair, along with spending on other small projects that do not fit into the project category.
Capitalized software expenditures relate to the creation, production and preparation of software for use in our online gaming
operations.
During the period from February 8, 2025 to December 31, 2025 (Successor) and period from January 1, 2025 to February 7,
2025 (Predecessor), capital expenditures were $346.1 million and $16.4 million, compared to $199.8 million during the year
ended December 31, 2024 (Predecessor). In 2025 successor and predecessor reporting periods, we continued our spending on
our planned projects and maintenance at our casino properties, the most significant being our future Bally’s Chicago permanent
facility. Through the Chicago MLA and Queen Master Lease, the Company has received reimbursement for capital
expenditures during the period from February 8, 2025 to December 31, 2025 (Successor) of $269.2 million for qualifying
capital expenditures related to the Bally’s Chicago permanent facility and renovations at Bally's Baton Rouge Casino and Hotel.
We expect that capital expenditures, outside of the construction of the Bally’s Chicago permanent facility and the development
of the New York City casino and Las Vegas project, will be relatively flat in 2026 compared to 2025 as we continue our focus
on generating cash flows to invest in long-term growth opportunities for the entire Bally’s portfolio.

Bally’s Twin River - In connection with our partnership with IGT, we have committed to invest $100 million in Bally’s Twin
River over the term of our master contract, ending in 2043, with Rhode Island to expand the property and add additional
amenities along with other capital improvements. Approximately $40.5 million of the committed investment remains as of
December 31, 2025 (Successor).
Bally’s Chicago - In connection with the host community agreement with the City of Chicago to develop, Bally’s Chicago
Operating Company, LLC (the “Developer”), a majority owned subsidiary of the Company, has committed to develop a
destination casino resort, to be named Bally’s Chicago, in downtown Chicago, Illinois and pay an annual fixed host community
impact fees of $4.0 million. The project also provides the Company with the exclusive right to operate a temporary casino,
which commenced operations on September 9, 2023 (Predecessor) at the Medinah Temple, for up to three years while the
permanent casino resort is constructed. To date, we have spent approximately $481.3 million related to the construction and
development of our permanent casino and resort, which is expected to open to the public in 2026. We expect future funding of
the permanent casino construction to be financed through the Chicago MLA agreement noted above and the Company’s capital
resources.
Additionally, in connection with the host community agreement, the Company provided the City of Chicago with a
performance guaranty whereby the Company agreed to have and maintain available financial resources in an amount reasonably
sufficient to allow the Developer to complete its obligations under the host community agreement. In addition, upon notice
from the City of Chicago that the Developer has failed to perform various obligations under the host community agreement, the
Company has indemnified the City of Chicago against any and all liability, claim or reasonable and documented expense the
City of Chicago may suffer or incur by reason of any nonperformance of any of the Developer’s obligations.
In furtherance of these obligations, the host community agreement requires us to spend at least $1.34 billion on the design,
construction and outfitting of our temporary casino and our permanent resort and casino. The actual cost of the development
may exceed this minimum capital investment requirement. In addition, land acquisition costs and financing costs, among other
types of costs, do not count towards satisfying such minimum expenditure.
Bally’s New York - In November 2025, we entered into a Conveyance Agreement with the City of New York where the City
agreed to (i) dispose of certain parkland property interests to Bally’s New York (the “Development Parcel”), (ii) alienate certain
parkland in order to grant Bally’s New York a non-exclusive easement over such lands for purposes of accessing the
Development Parcel and (iii) discontinue certain lands as parkland and alienate and transfer jurisdiction of such lands to the
City’s Department of Transportation for use as public roadways (the “Ring Road Parcel”) to facilitate access to the
Development Parcel and so the Development Parcel may be used by the Company for a gaming facility.
The closing of the transactions contemplated by the Conveyance Agreement was contingent upon, among other things, (i)
Bally’s New York’s agreement to make certain capital improvements to Bally’s Golf Links with a fair market value of
approximately $161 million and (b) to deliver security instruments to the City to secure the performance and completion of
such capital improvements, (ii) the Company being awarded a downstate gaming facility license from the New York State
Gaming Commission, (iii) payment by Bally’s New York to the City’s Department of Parks & Recreation of an administrative
fee in the amount of $1 million, (iv) Bally’s New York’s agreement to pay for all costs and expenses for the development and
mapping of the Ring Road Parcel and (v) Bally’s New York’s payment of real property transfer taxes with respect to the
transactions contemplated by the Conveyance Agreement.
New York Gaming License Commitments
In December 2025, the Company was awarded one of New York State’s three downstate commercial casino licenses for its
planned Bally’s Bronx project, requiring the Company to pay a $500 million license fee, which was paid in the first quarter of
2026, as well as post a bond or cash deposit equal to 5% of the total project investment. The Company must also implement its
community benefit commitments, including periodic public reporting, and engage an independent Compliance Monitoring
Team approved by the New York State Gaming Commission to oversee regulatory, anti‑money‑laundering, and
community‑benefit com pliance. Additionally, in February 2026, the Company paid $115 million of the $125 million in total
contingent consideration due to the seller of Bally’s Golf Links.

Other Contractual Obligations
Sponsorship Commitments - The Company has entered into several sponsorship agreements with various professional sports
leagues and teams, allowing the Company use of official league marks for branding and promotions, among other rights. As of
December 31, 2025 (Successor), obligations related to these agreements were $114.9 million, with contracts extending through
2036.
Interactive Technology Partnerships - The Company has certain multi-year agreements with its various market access and
content providers, as well as its online sports betting platform partners, that require the Company to pay variable fees based on
revenue, with minimum annual guarantees. As of December 31, 2025 (Successor), the cumulative minimum obligation
committed in these agreements is approximately $32.1 million, extending through 2029.
Critical Accounting Estimates
Th e preparation of our consolidated financial statements in accordance with US GAAP requires us to make estimates and apply
judgments that affect reported amounts. These estimates and judgments are based on past events and/or expectations of future
outcomes. Actual results may differ from our estimates. We discuss our significant accounting policies used in preparing the
financial statements in Note 2 of our consolidated financial statements included in Part II, Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form
10-K. The following is a summary of our critical accounting estimates and how they are applied in preparation of our
consolidated financial statements.
Valuation of Intangible Assets Acquired in Business Combinations
Intangible assets consist primarily of gaming licenses, trade names, developed technology and customer lists which have all
been obtained through business combinations.
Gaming licenses obtained through business combinations are generally recorded at their fair values through purchase
accounting using the Greenfield Method under the income approach. This method estimates isolated income that is properly
attributable to a license based on modeling a hypothetical start-up company going into business without any other assets than
the gaming license being valued and building a new casino with similar utility to the existing casino. Using this method, the
valuation of the gaming license is dependent upon significant estimates such as projected revenues and cash flows, estimated
construction costs, duration of that construction, pre-opening expenses and appropriate discounting. Gaming licenses accounted
for as asset acquisitions are valued at cost.
Trade names obtained through business combinations are valued using the relief-from-royalty method under the income
approach. This method estimates the cost savings that accrue to the owner of an intangible asset who would otherwise have to
pay royalties or license fees on revenues earned through the use of the asset. As such, the value of a trade name acquired
through a business combination is dependent upon estimates such as projected revenues, selection of an appropriate
hypothetical royalty rate and appropriate discounting. Trade names accounted for as asset acquisitions are valued at cost.
Developed technology is obtained through business combinations and is recorded at fair value through purchase accounting
using the Multi-Period Excess Earnings Method under the income approach. The principle behind this method is that the value
of an intangible asset is equal to the present value of the incremental after tax cash flows attributable only to the subject
intangible asset after deducting Contributory Asset Charges (“CACs”). The principle behind a CAC is that an intangible asset
‘rents’ or ‘leases’ from a hypothetical third party all the assets it requires to produce the cash flows resulting from its
development, that each project rents only those assets it needs and not the ones that it does not need, and that each project pays
the owner of the assets a fair return on the value of the rented assets. Under this method, the valuation of developed technology
is dependent on estimates such as projected revenues and cash flows, CAC and appropriate discounting.
Certain trade names are considered to be indefinite lived based on future expectations of continuing to brand our corporate
name and certain properties and online operations und er the Bally’s trade name indefinitely. Intangible assets not subject to
amortization are reviewed for impairment annually as of October 1 and between annual test dates whenever events or changes
in circumstances may indicate that the carrying amount of the related asset may not be recoverable.
For its finite-lived intangible assets, we establish a useful life upon initial recognition based on the period over which the asset
is expected to contribute to the future cash flows of the Company and periodically evaluates the remaining useful lives to
determine whether events and circumstances warrant a revision to the remainin g amortization period. Finite-lived intangible
assets are amortized over their remaining useful lives in a pattern in which the economic benefits of the intangible asset are
consumed, which is generally on a straight-line basis.
62
Valuation and Subsequent Measurement of Goodwill
Assessing goodwill for impairment is a process that involves significant judgment and requires a qualitative and quantitative
analysis with many assumptions which fluctuate based on our business. We review goodwill at least annually and between
annual test dates if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that the asset is impaired. We have
elected to perform our annual tests for indications of impairment as of the first day of the fourth quarter of each year. The
evaluation of goodwill requires the use of estimates about future operating results of each reporting unit and asset to determine
the estimated fair value of the reporting unit. The Company must make various assumptions and estimates in performing its
impairment testing, including assumptions and estimates about future cash flows. Changes in estimates and assumptions used in
estimating future cash flows could produce significantly different results. If our ongoing estimates of future cash flows are not
met, we may have to record impairment charges in future periods.
When assessing goodwill for impairment, first, qualitative factors are assessed to determine whether it is more likely than not
that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value. A qualitative impairment assessment involves analyzing
relevant events and circumstances, with greater weight assigned to events and circumstances that most affect the fair value or
the carrying amounts of a reporting unit’s assets. Items that are generally considered include, but are not limited to, the
following: macroeconomic conditions, industry and market conditions and overall financial performance. If the results of the
qualitative assessment are not conclusive, a quantitative goodwill test is performed. For the quantitative goodwill impairment
test, we estimate the fair value of the reporting unit using both income and market-based approaches. Specifically, the Company
applies the discounted cash flow (“DCF”) model under the income approach and the guideli ne public co mpany method under
the market approach and weighs the results of the two valuation methodologies based on the facts and circumstances
surrounding the reporting unit. For the DCF model, we rely on the present value of expected future cash flows, including
terminal value, utilizing a market-based weighted average cost of capital (“WACC”) determined separately for the reporting
unit as of the valuation date. The determination of fair value under the DCF model involves the use of significant estimates and
assumptions, including revenue growth rates driven by future gaming activity, operating margins, capital expenditures, working
capital requirements, tax rates, terminal growth rates, and discount rates. For the market approach, we utilize a comparison of
the reporting unit to comparable publicly-traded companies and transactions and, based on the observed earnings multiples,
ultimately selects multiples to apply to the reporting unit. We then compare the fair value of our reporting units to the carrying
amounts. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit exceeds the fair value, an impairment is recorded equal to the amount of
the excess (not to exceed the amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit).
Assumptions and estimates about future cash flow levels and multiples by individual reporting units are complex and
subjective. The Company continuously monitors for events and circumstances that could negatively impact the key assumptions
in determining the fair value of its reporting units, including long-term revenue growth projections, profitability, discount rates,
external factors, such as industry, market and macro-economic conditions, and internal factors, such as changes in the
Company’s business strategy, which may re-allocate capital and resources to different or new opportunities but, in turn, may be
to the detriment of an individual reporting unit.
The Company completed its annual assessment for goodwill impairment as of October 1, 2025 (Successor), which resulted in
impairment charges to goodwill of $72.5 million related to a reporting unit within the Bally’s Intralot B2B segment due to
declining projected cash flows in the Company’s licensing reve nues. The fair value was determined through a discounted cash
flow approach. The valuation utilized level 3 inputs including projected cash flows, a market-based WACC of 25% and a long
term growth rate of 2%. The most sensitive inputs to the estimated fair value of the reporting unit were the discount rate and
terminal growth rate. A hypothetical 100 basis point increase in the WACC or a 100 basis point decline in the terminal growth
rate would have resulted in incremental impairment charges of $1.5 million and $0.4 million, respectively. Material changes in
these estimates could occur and result in additional impairment in future periods.
Sub sequent to the annual test, the Company identified a triggering event in affecting its International Interactive reporting unit
within its Bally's Intralot B2C segment due to the announced increase of the remote gaming duty tax in the UK from 21% to
40%, effective in April 2026. The Company performed a quantitative impairment test for a reporting unit within its Bally's
Intralot B2C segment. The estimated fair value of the reporting unit was determined through a combination of a discounted cash
flow model and market-based approach, which utilized inputs including future cash flow projections for the reporting units,
terminal growth rates of 3%, and discount rates of 12.0%. Goodwill associated with this reporting unit was $1.5 billion at
December 31, 2025 (Successor). The result of this assessment did not result in any impairment as fair value exceeded carrying
value by 82%. The most sensitive inputs to the estimated fair value of the reporting unit were the discount rate and terminal
growth rate. A hypothetical 100 basis point increase in the WACC or a 100 basis point decline in the terminal growth rate
would not have resulted in any impairment charge. Material changes in these estimates could occur and result in additional
impairment in future periods.
63
Income Taxes
We prepare our income tax provision in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 740, Income Taxes.
Under the asset and liability method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences
attributable to differences between the consolidated financial statements carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and
their respective tax basis and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in
which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a
change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that the rate change is enacted. A valuation allowance is required when
it is “more likely than not” that all or a portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The consolidated financial
statements reflect expected future tax consequences of uncertain tax positions presuming the taxing authorities’ full knowledge
of the position and all relevant facts. We assessed our deferred tax liabilities arising from taxable temporary differences and
concluded such liabilities are not a sufficient source of income for the realization of deferred tax assets, including indefinite life
taxable temporary differences which offset, subject to limitation, deferred tax assets with unlimited carryovers, such as the
Section 163(j) interest limitation. Accordingly, the Company’s valuation allowance of $275.1 million reflects increases of
$127.9 million and $8.7 million recorded during the period from February 8, 2025 to December 31, 2025 and period from
January 1, 2025 to February 7, 2025, respectively. Additionally, the Company’s change in valuation allowance compared to the
balance at December 31, 2024 (Predecessor), included $36.3 million of purchase price allocation adjustments related to the
Intralot Transaction and Merger during the period from February 8, 2025 to December 31, 2025 (Successor).
The allocation of shared costs and intangible assets among our subsidiaries in various US domestic, state and international
jurisdictions is an estimate based on the principles of IRC Section 482, 1060 and 338 which is a critical estimate in the
computation of US and international tax provisions.
The interpretation of the IRC regulations related to the Tax Cuts and Jobs Acts, as it pertains to Section 163(j), is a critical
estimate in the computation of US federal taxes, and conforming states.

Pronouncements,” of Part II. Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K for further detail.
64
ITEM 7A.QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Market risk is the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices, such as interest rates and foreign
currency exchange rates. We are exposed to changes in interest rates primarily from variable rate long-term debt arrangements
and foreign currency risk attributable to our operations outside of the US Inflation generally affects us by increasing our cost of
labor. Bally’s does not believe that inflation had a material effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations
during the period from February 8, 2025 to December 31, 2025 (Successor), the period from January 1, 2025 to February 7,
2025 (Predecessor) or the year ended December 31, 2024 (Predecessor).
Interest Rate Risk
As of December 31, 2025 (Successor), interest on borrowings under our credit facility was subject to fluctuation based on
changes in short-term interest rates. On December 31, 2025 (Successor), we had $2.36 billion of variable rate debt outstanding
under our Term Loan, Intralot British Term Loan, Intralot Floating Rate Notes and Revolving Credit Facilities and $1.49 billion
of unsecured senior notes. Based upon a sensitivity analysis of our debt levels on December 31, 2025 (Successor), a
hypothetical increase of 1% in the effective interest rate would cause an increase in interest expense of approximately $23.6
million over the next twelve months while a decrease of 1% in the effective interest rate, not to exceed the interest rate floor,
would cause a decrease in interest expense of approximately $23.6 million over the same period.
We evaluate our exposure to market risk by monitoring interest rates in the marketplace and we have utilized derivative
financial instruments to help manage this risk. As part of the Company’s risk management and hedging program, the Company
utilizes interest rate swaps and collars used to hedge and offset, respectively, the variable interest rates on the credit facility as
described in Note 11, “Derivative Instruments” to our consolidated financial statements presented in Part II, Item 8 of this
Annual Report on Form 10-K.
We have not historically utilized derivative financial instruments for trading purposes. We do not believe that fluctuations in
interest rates had a material effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations during the period from February
8, 2025 to December 31, 2025 (Successor), the period from January 1, 2025 to February 7, 2025 (Predecessor) or year ended
December 31, 2024 (Predecessor).
Foreign Currency Risk
We are exposed to fluctuations in currency exchange rates as a result of our net investments and operations in countries other
than the US. A vast majority of our revenues are from the UK market and are conducted in GBP and are therefore susceptible to
any movements in exchange rates between the GBP and USD. Foreign currency transaction losses for the period from February
8, 2025 to December 31, 2025 (Successor) and gains for the period from January 1, 2025 to February 7, 2025 (Predecessor)
were $34.8 million and $0.2 million, respectively, compared to foreign currency transaction gains for the year ended December
31, 2024 (Predecessor) of $10.3 million. Movements in currency exchange rates could impact the translation of assets and
liabilities of these foreign operations which are translated at the exchange rate in effect on the balance sheet date. We have
utilized derivative financial instruments, such as cross currency swaps, as well as economic hedges or forward currency
exchange rate contracts, to manage the impact of currency exchange rate fluctuations on earnings and cash flows.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the shareholders and the Board of Directors of Bally’s Corporation
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Bally's Corporation and subsidiaries (the
“Company”) as of December 31, 2025 (successor) and 2024 (predecessor), the related consolidated statements of
comprehensive loss, stockholders’ equity (deficit), and cash flows for the periods from February 8, 2025 to
December 31, 2025 (successor), from January 1, 2025 to February 7, 2025 (predecessor), and for the year ended
December 31, 2024 (predecessor), and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our
opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of
December 31, 2025 (successor) and 2024 (predecessor), and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the
periods from February 8, 2025 to December 31, 2025 (successor), from January 1, 2025 to February 7, 2025
(predecessor), and for the year ended December 31, 2024 (predecessor), in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America.
We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United
States) (PCAOB), the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025 (successor),
based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of
Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated March 23, 2026, expressed an adverse
opinion on the Company's internal control over financial reporting because of a material weakness.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on the Company's financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with
the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal
securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the
PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of
material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that
respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matters
The critical audit matter communicated below are matters arising from the current-period audit of the financial
statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (1) relates to
accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging,
subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion
on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below,
providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.
67
Goodwill – International Interactive Reporting Unit – Refer to Notes 2 and 10 to the financial statements
Critical Audit Matter Description
The Company’s goodwill is tested annually for impairment, or more frequently if indicators of impairment exist, by
comparing the fair value of the respective reporting units to their carrying value. The Company determines the fair
value of its reporting units in consideration of the income-based and market-based approaches. The key inputs in
determining the fair value of the International Interactive reporting unit include expected cash flows and projected
financial results, including forecasted revenues (collectively the “International Interactive forecasts”), the selection
of the discount rate, and market multiples. As of December 31, 2025, the value of the International Interactive
reporting unit goodwill is $1.5 billion.
The Company’s fair value determination of its International Interactive reporting unit required management to make
significant estimates and assumptions of International Interactive forecasts, discount rates, and market multiples.
Therefore, performing audit procedures to evaluate the reasonableness of these estimates and assumptions involved
a high degree of auditor judgment and increased extent of effort, including the need to involve our fair value
specialists.
How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit
Our audit procedures related to the International Interactive forecasts, discount rates, and market multiples used by
management to estimate the fair value of the International Interactive reporting unit included the following, among
others:
•We tested the effectiveness of controls over determining the fair value of the Company’s International
Interactive reporting unit, including controls over the International Interactive forecasts and the selection of
discount rates and market multiples.
•We evaluated management’s ability to accurately project the International Interactive forecasts by
performing a retrospective review of actual results to management’s historical forecasts.
•We evaluated the reasonableness of management’s projected International Interactive forecasts by:
◦Comparing the International Interactive forecasts to information included in the Company’s
communications to the Board of Directors, industry reports, and analyst reports for the Company
and certain of its peer companies;
◦Comparing the International Interactive forecasts to historical financial results;
◦Evaluating the impact of changes in the regulatory environment on management’s forecasts;
◦Conducting inquiries with management; and
◦Evaluating whether the International Interactive forecasts were consistent with evidence obtained
in other areas of the audit.
•With the assistance of our fair value specialists, we evaluated the reasonableness of the International
Interactive discount rate and market multiples by:
◦Testing the inputs underlying the determination of the discount rate and testing the mathematical
accuracy of the calculation;
◦Developing a range of independent estimates and comparing those to the discount rate selected by
management;
◦Testing the source information underlying the determination of the market multiples; and
◦Developing a range of independent estimates and comparing those to the market multiples selected
by management.
Business Combination – Merger – Refer to Notes 1, 2, and 7 to the financial statements
Critical Audit Matter Description
On February 7, 2025, the Company completed the Merger with SG Parent LLC, (“Parent”), The Queen Casino &
Entertainment, Inc., (“Queen”), and as a result of the transactions, at closing, Parent and its affiliates beneficially
owned 73.8% of the issued and outstanding Company common stock.
68
The Merger between the Company and Queen was accounted for as a transaction between entities under common
control in accordance with ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations (“ASC 805”), in which the accounting acquirer
(Parent and its affiliates) obtained control of the Company. The Company has elected to push down its Parent’s basis
in its net assets into its financial statements, and as a result, the net assets of the Predecessor were measured and
recognized at their fair values as of the acquisition date and were combined with those of Queen at Queen’s
historical carrying amounts and are presented on a combined basis.
The fair value of the Merger consideration was $955.6 million which was allocated to the assets acquired and
liabilities assumed based on their respective fair values, including the fair value of the operating segments and
reporting units, gaming licenses, customer relationships, developed technology, trade names and Intellectual
property license.
The fair value determination of these intangible assets requires management to make significant estimates and
assumptions related to expected cash flows and projected financial results, including forecasted revenues
(collectively the “Merger forecasts”), and the selection of the discount rate. Changes to these assumptions could
result in a significant impact on the recognition of the acquired gaming licenses, customer relationships, developed
technology, trade name and intellectual property license intangible assets, and the determination of goodwill.
Therefore, performing audit procedures to evaluate the reasonableness of these assumptions required a high degree
of auditor judgment and an increased extent of effort, including the need to involve our fair value specialists.
Business Combination – Intralot S.A. – Refer to Notes 1 and 7 to the financial statements
Critical Audit Matter Description
On October 8, 2025, Intralot S.A. (“Intralot”) completed the acquisition of the Company’s issued and outstanding
capital stock of Bally’s Holdings Limited, (“Bally’s International Interactive”) and combined it with Intralot’s global
lottery and gaming operations (the “Intralot Transaction”).
The Intralot Transaction consideration comprised of €1.530 billion ($1.8 billion) cash paid by Intralot, and 873.7
million newly issued Intralot shares to the Company. Following the Intralot Transaction, the Company became the
majority shareholder of Intralot with an aggregate 57.9% interest. As the Company obtained a controlling financial
interest in Intralot as a result of the Intralot Transaction, the Company is deemed the accounting acquirer of Intralot
for purposes of financial reporting. Accordingly, the Intralot Transaction will be accounted for as a business
combination under ASC 805.
The consideration for the purchase accounting is approximately $1.60 billion, consisting of (i) the fair value of the
Intralot shares issued to the Company on the closing date, and (ii) the fair value of Bally’s previously held equity
interest in Intralot. The remaining 42.1% of Intralot’s equity interests held by third parties will be reflected as a
noncontrolling interest of the Company in the equity section of its consolidated balance sheet in accordance with
ASC 805. The preliminary fair value of the noncontrolling interest on the closing date was $1.1 billion, based on
Intralot’s share price on the closing date and the control premium.
The fair value of consideration was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their respective
fair values, including the fair value of the synergies, developed technology, trade names, backlog, and customer
relationship.
The fair value determination of these intangible assets requires management to make significant estimates and
assumptions related to expected cash flows and projected financial results, including forecasted revenues
(collectively the “Intralot forecasts”), and the selection of the discount rate. Changes to these assumptions could
result in a significant impact on the recognition of the acquired developed technology, trade names, backlog and
customer relationship intangible assets and the determination of goodwill. Therefore, performing audit procedures to
evaluate the reasonableness of these assumptions required a high degree of auditor judgment and an increased extent
of effort, including the need to involve our fair value specialists.
How the Critical Audit Matters Were Addressed in the Audit
Our audit procedures related to the Merger forecasts and Intralot forecasts (collectively forecasts”) and the selection
of the discount rates used by management to determine the fair value of the acquired intangible assets and the
assigned goodwill included the following, among others:
69
•We tested the effectiveness of controls over the valuation of the operating segments, reporting units, and
intangible assets, including management’s controls over the forecasts and the selection of the discount rate
used.
•We evaluated the assumptions and estimates included in the forecasts by:
◦Comparing the forecasts to information included in the Company’s communications to the Board
of Directors, industry reports, and analyst reports for the Company and certain of its peer
companies;
◦Comparing the forecasts to historical financial results;
◦Conducting inquiries with management; and
◦Evaluating whether the forecasts were consistent with evidence obtained in other areas of the
audit.
•With the assistance of our fair value specialists, we evaluated the reasonableness of the discount rate by:
◦Testing the inputs underlying the determination of the discount rate and testing the mathematical
accuracy of the calculation.
◦Developing a range of independent estimates and comparing those to the discount rate selected by
management.

Additionally, under the SBG Support Agreement, SBG agreed to waive its right to the options it previously acquired under a
Framework Agreement originally entered into in 2020 (the “Framework Agreement”), upon completion of the Merger, and in
exchange, the Company issued SBG warrants to purchase 384,536 shares of the Company’s common stock under substantially
similar terms to the Penny Warrants issued to SBG under the Framework Agreement. In connection with the Merger, as of
February 7, 2025, all outstanding Performance Warrants became immediately exercisable at a price of $0.01 per share.
Acquisition of Intralot
In 2025, following the Queen Merger, the Company held an investment in Bally’s Intralot S.A. (“Intralot”), which was
accounted for as an equity method investment under the fair value option. The total initial investment represented
approximately 26.86% of Intralot’s outstanding shares. As part of this investment structure, the Company held a €25.0 million
delayed draw term loan receivable from a third‑party investment holding company, the repayment of which was contractually
tied to the delivery of Intralot shares. During the three months ended June 30, 2025 (Successor), the Company settled this
outstanding delayed draw term loan by receiving 34.3 million shares of Intralot in full satisfaction of the loan, consistent with
the fair value model that estimated repayment based on the value of Intralot shares. In addition, on June 30, 2025, the Company
purchased 4.8 million additional Intralot shares for €1.06 per share. These transactions collectively triggered a mandatory tender
offer for the remaining outstanding shares of Intralot. During the three months ended September 30, 2025 (Successor), the
mandatory tender offer was completed, and the Company’s acquired an additional 6.1 million shares of Intralot, increasing its
ownership to 34.35% of Intralot’s outstanding shares prior to the transaction described below.
On October 8, 2025 (the “Intralot Closing Date”), the Company completed the previously announced acquisition under the
transaction agreement (the “Transaction Agreement”) of Intralot, pursuant to which Intralot agreed to acquire Bally’s
International Interactive through a combined cash-and-equity transaction. Pursuant to the Transaction Agreement, (i) Intralot
paid the Company $1.8 billion in cash and issued approximately 873.7 million new shares in exchange for all of the issued and
outstanding capital stock of Bally’s Holdings Limited which held Bally’s International Interactive, (ii) the Company’s
ownership of Intralot increased to a controlling 57.9% interest through the issuance of equity to the Company’s consolidated
subsidiary Premier Entertainment Sub, LLC via PE Sub Holdings LLC, an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the Company,
making the Company the majority shareholder of Intralot (the “Intralot Transaction”).
As a result of obtaining a controlling financial interest in Intralot, the Company retained control of Bally’s International
Interactive, via Bally’s Holdings Limited, throughout the transaction. On the Intralot Closing Date, legal ownership of Bally’s
Holdings Limited transferred from Premier Entertainment Sub to Intralot; however, Bally’s Corporation simultaneously
obtained control of Intralot. Accordingly, Bally’s maintained control of Bally’s International Interactive, and as a result, t he
transfer of Bally’s International Interactive was accounted for as an equity transaction with the initial recognition of a 42.1%
non-controlling interest, and no gain or loss was recognized in earnings.

2.SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) and include the accounts of the Company, its majority-owned
subsidiaries and entities the Company identifies as variable interest entities (“VIEs”), of which the Company is determined to
be the primary beneficiary. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolid ation. Any prior year
amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year’s presentation. The financial statements of our foreign
subsidiaries are translated into US Dollars (“USD”) using exchange rates in effect at period-end for assets and liabilities and
average exchange rates during each reporting period for results of operations. Adjustments resulting from financial statement
translations are reflected as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). Foreign currency
transaction gains and losses are included in net income (loss).
As described in Note 1, “General Information”, the Company completed the Merger with Queen on February 7, 2025 (the
“Closing”), with Queen surviving the Merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The Parent and its affiliates
maintained a controlling financial interest, as defined by ASC 810, Consolidation, in Queen before and after the Merger, and in
the Company upon consummation of the Merger. The Merger with Queen was accounted for as a transaction between entities
under common control because the Parent and its affiliates contributed a wholly owned subsidiary into the Company, which
became a controlled subsidiary of the Parent and its affiliates upon consummation of the merger. The Company has elected to
push down its Parent’s basis in its net assets into its consolidated financial statements, and as a result, unless the context
otherwise requires, the “Company,” for periods prior to the Closing refers to Bally’s (“Predecessor”), and for the periods after
the Closing refers to the combined Company of Bally’s and Queen (“Successor” or the “Company”). As a result of the Merger,
the results of operations, financial position and cash flows of the Predecessor and the Successor are not directly comparable. As
Bally’s was deemed to be the predecessor entity, the historical financial statements of Bally’s became the historical financial
statements of the combined Company, upon the consummation of the Merger. As a result, the financial statements included in
this report reflect (i) the historical operating results of Bally’s prior to the Merger and (ii) the combined results of the Company
following the Closing. The accompanying consolidated financial statements include a Predecessor period, which includes the
period through February 7, 2025 concurrent with the Merger, and a Successor period from February 8, 2025 through
December 31, 2025. A black line between the Successor and Predecessor periods has been placed in the consolidated financial
statements and in the tables to the notes to the consolidated financial statements to highlight the lack of comparability between
these two periods.
Certain adjustments have been made to Queen’s historical carrying values to conform accounting policies with the Company,
with any such adjustments being recorded to equity. The preliminary purchase price of Queen is estimated based on the fair
value of all existing and outstanding shares of Queen that were exchanged for shares of Company common stock, with the net
effect of the transaction being charged to equity.
The preliminary purchase price of Queen and adjustment to equity resulting from the merger consists of the following:

(in thousands, except share and per share data) | Amount
Queen common stock outstanding on February 7, 2025 | 10,967,117
Per share ratio | 2.45
Equivalent Bally’s common stock to be issued | 26,909,895
Bally’s common stock issued to settle Queen’s outstanding warrant and restricted stock awards | 3,542,201
Total Bally’s shares issued for Queen shares outstanding | 30,452,096
Share price per Merger Agreement | $18.25
Total purchase price | $555,751
Less: Queen net assets assumed | 217,027
Equity adjustment associated with the Queen merger | $338,724

For the period from February 8, 2025 to December 31, 2025 (Successor), revenue and net income from Queen was $216.0
million and $30.8 million, respectively.

The Star Entertainment Group Investment
On April 7, 2025 (Successor), the Company entered into a Binding Term Sheet with The Star Entertainment Group Limited
(“The Star”), an ASX-listed company, to invest up to A$300.0 million in a multi-tranche issuance of convertible notes and
subordinated debt (the “Investment”). On April 8, 2025 (Successor), The Star announced a commitment from its largest
shareholder, Investment Holdings Pty, to subscribe for A$100.0 million of the Investment, reducing the Company’s
commitment to A$200.0 million. On April 9, 2025 (Successor), the Company funded A$66.7 million, consisting of Tranche 1A
convertible notes of A$22.2 million (“the Convertible Notes”) and subordinated debt with a principal amount of A$44.4
million. Additionally, on May 23, 2025 (Successor), the Company and The Star entered into a Subscription Agreement and a
Subordination Deed Poll in favor of certain The Star’s senior lenders.
Following shareholder approval, the Company funded an additional principal amount of A$66.7 million in subordinated debt on
June 27, 2025 (Successor) and the remainder of the Company’s A$66.7 million commitment (the “Forward Obligation”) in
subordinated debt (together with the A$44.4 million and A$66.7 million, the “Subordinated Notes”) on October 9, 2025
(Successor). Both the Convertible Notes and Subordinated Notes matured on July 2, 2029, and bore interest at an annual rate of
9%, paid in-kind and compounded quarterly.
These investments were accounted for as debt securities under ASC 320, Investments - Debt Securities, for which the Company
had elected the fair value option allowed by ASC 825, Financial Instruments. Under the fair value option, the investment is
remeasured at fair value at each reporting period, with changes in fair value included within Other non-operating income
(expense), net. During the period from February 8, 2025 to December 31, 2025 (Successor), the Company recognized $3.9
million of interest income from the Star Investment, which it has elected to present as part of the total change in fair value. The
Company m easures fair value using a binomial lattice model as well as a discounted cash flow model, classified within Level 3
of the hierarchy. Inputs to the valuation approach include the stock price and credit rating of The Star, volatility of 45%,
recovery rate of 10%, risk free rate of 3.6%, and the Company’s estimate of the probability of default.
During the fourth quarter of 2025, following all required regulatory approvals and pursuant to the terms of the Subscription
Agreement, The Star issued Tranche 2 convertible notes. Using the principal value of the Subordinated Notes as payment, the
Company effectively swapped the Subordinated Notes for Tranche 2 convertible notes. On November 28, 2025 (Successor), the
Company converted the principal amount of the outstanding convertible notes into 2.5 billion ordinary shares of The Star at a
conversion price of A$0.08 per share, giving the Company a 37.7% equity interest in The Star. The Company accounts for its
equity interest in The Star as an equity method investment under the fair value option.
Equity Method Investments
In 2025, following the Queen Merger, the Company had an investment in Intralot. The total initial investment represented
approximately 26.86% of the outstanding shares of Intralot. During the fourth quarter of 2025, the Company acquired a
controlling financial interest in Intralot as described in Note 1, “General Information” and will account for the Intralot
Transaction as a business combination (refer to Note 7 “Business Combinations” for further information). Prior to the Intralot
Transaction, the Company accounted for its shares as an equity method investment under the fair value option.
The Company also has other investments in unconsolidated subsidiaries, which are accounted for using equity method
accounting. The Company records its share of net income or loss and changes in fair value for equity method investments
accounted for under the fair value option within “Other non-operating income (expense), net” in the consolidated statements of
operations. Refer to Note 4 “Consolidated Financial Information” for further information.
Variable Interest Entities
The Company evaluates entities for which control is achieved through means other than voting rights to determine if it is the
primary beneficiary of a VIE. An entity is a VIE if it has any of the following characteristics (i) has insufficient equity to permit
the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support (ii) equity holders, as a group, lack the
characteristics of a controlling financial interest or (iii) the entity is structured with non-substantive voting rights. The primary
beneficiary of the VIE is generally the entity that has (a) the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly
impact the VIE’s economic performance and (b) the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could
potentially be significant to the VIE. The Company consolidates its investment in a VIE when it determines that it is its primary
beneficiary.
In determining whether it is the primary beneficiary of the VIE, the Company considers qualitative and quantitative factors,
including, but not limited to which activities most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance and which party
controls such activities and significance of the Company’s investment and other means of participation in the VIE’s expected
profits/losses. Significant judgments related to these determinations include estimates about the current and future fair values
and performance of assets held by these VIEs and general market conditions.

BALLY’S CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The Company may change its original assessment of a VIE upon subsequent events such as the modification of contractual
arrangements that affect the characteristics or adequacy of the entity’s equity investments at risk and the disposition of all or a
portion of an interest held by the primary beneficiary. The Company performs this analysis on an ongoing basis.
Related Parties
The Company evaluates related parties pursuant to ASC 850, Related Party Disclosures (“ASC 850”). Related parties include
VIE entities, shareholders of significant subsidiaries, key management personnel of the Company, and equity method
investments held by the Company. Refer to Note 3 “Related Party Transactions” for further information.
Non-controlling interest
As described in Note 1, “General Information,” on October 8, 2025 the Company acquired a controlling financial interest in
Intralot. In connection with the transaction, Bally’s International Interactive, a wholly owned subsidiary, was contributed to
Intralot. As a result, the Company consolidates Intralot and its subsidiaries, including Bally’s International Interactive, and the
equity interests in Intralot held by third parties are reflected as a noncontrolling interest in the Company’s Consolidated
Statements of Stockholders’ Equity. The non-controlling interest recognized at the Intralot Closing Date represents (i) the fair
value of the equity interests in Intralot held by third parties, which is based on Intralot’s closing share price as of that date and
(ii) the carrying value of the noncontrolling interests attributable to Bally’s International Interactive. As of December 31, 2025
(Successor), third parties held approximately 41.2% of the outstanding equity interests in Intralot. Net loss attributable to non-
controlling interest was $9.2 million for the period from February 8, 2025 to December 31, 2025 (Successor).
During the first quarter of 2025, Bally’s Chicago, Inc., a consolidated subsidiary of the Company, successfully completed a
private placement, whereby shares of Class A-1, A-2, A-3 and A-4 were issued to third parties for total consideration of $12.4
million, net of $0.8 million of issuance costs. Additionally, on August 14, 2025 (Successor), Bally’s Chicago, Inc. completed its
public offering and concurrent private placement, whereby additional shares of Class A-1, A-2, A-3 and A-4 were issued for
total consideration of $5.8 million, net of $0.3 million of issuance costs. As of December 31, 2025 (Successor), the Company’s
non-controlling interest in Bally’s Chicago, Inc. is 10.5%. Net loss attributable to non-controlling interest was $6.3 million for
the period from February 8, 2025 to December 31, 2025 period from February 8, 2025 to December 31, 2025 (Successor).
Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and judgments
that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and revenues and expenses and related disclosures of contingent assets
and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates and judgments including those related to contingent
value rights, the allowance for credit losses, valuation of goodwill and intangible assets, recoverability and useful lives of
tangible and intangible long-lived assets, accruals for potential liabilities related to any lawsuits or claims brought against the
Company, fair value of financial instruments, capitalized software development costs, stock compensation and valuation
allowances for deferred tax assets. The Company bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience and other relevant
factors impacting the carrying value of assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash
Cash and cash equivalents includes cash balances and highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or
less. Restricted cash includes player deposits, payment service provider deposits, cash collateral in connection with amounts
previously due to the Chicago Tribune, and VLT and table games related cash payable to certain states where we operate, which
are unavailable for the Company’s use.
Concentrations of Credit Risk
The Company’s financial instruments which potentially expose the Company to concentrations of credit risk consisted of cash
and cash equivalents and trade receivables. The Company maintains cash with financial institutions in excess of federally
insured limits, however, management believes the credit risk is mitigated by the quality of the institutions holding such
deposits.

Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, if applicable. Expenditures
for renewals and betterments that extend the life or value of an asset are capitalized and expenditures for repairs and
maintenance are charged to expense as incurred. The costs and related accumulated depreciation applicable to assets sold or
disposed of are removed from the balance sheet accounts and the resulting gains or losses are reflected in the consolidated
statements of operations. Depreciation is recorded using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets or
the related lease term, if any, as follows:

| Years
Land improvements | 10-20
Building and improvements | 2-50
Equipment | 2-10
Furniture and fixtures | 2-10

Development costs directly associated with the acquisition, development and construction of a project are capitalized as a cost
of the project during the periods in which activities necessary to prepare the property for its intended use are in progress.
Interest costs associated with major construction projects are capitalized as part of the cost of the constructed assets. When no
debt is incurred specifically for a project, interest is capitalized on amounts expended for the project using the weighted average
cost of borrowing. Capitalization of interest ceases when the project (or discernible portions of the project) is substantially
complete. If substantially all of the construction activities of a project are suspended, capitalization of interest will cease until
such activities are resumed. The Company recorded capitalized interest of $4.8 million, $0.8 million, and $8.0 million during
the period from February 8, 2025 to December 31, 2025 (Successor), the period from January 1, 2025 to February 7, 2025
(Predecessor), and the year ended December 31, 2024 (Predecessor), respectively. Refer to Note 15 “Leases” for further
information on capitalized interest in connection with the Company’s Bally’s Chicago permanent casino development.
Leases
The Company determines if a contract is or contains a lease at the contract inception date or the date on which a modification of
an existing contract occurs. A contract is or contains a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified
asset for a period in exchange for consideration. Control over the use of the identified asset means the lessee has both (i) the
right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from the use of the identified asset throughout the period of use and (ii)
the right to direct the use of the identified asset.
Upon adoption of ASC 842, Leases, (“ASC 842”) the Company elected to account for lease and non-lease components as a
single component for all classes of underlying assets. Additionally, the Company elected to not recognize short-term leases
(defined as leases that are less than 12 months and do not contain purchase options) within the consolidated balance sheets.
The Company recognizes a lease liability for the present value of lease payments at the lease commencement date using its
incremental borrowing rate commensurate with the lease term based on information available at the commencement date unless
the rate implicit in the lease is readily determinable.
Certain of the Company’s leases include renewal options and escalation clauses; renewal options are included in the calculation
of the lease liabilities and right of use assets when the Company determines it is reasonably certain to exercise the options.
Variable expenses generally represent the Company’s share of the landlord’s operating expenses and consumer price index
(“CPI”) increases. Rent expense associated with the Company’s long and short term leases and their associated variable
expenses are reported in total operating costs and expenses within the consolidated statements of operations.
Goodwill
Goodwill consists of the excess of acquisition costs over the fair value of net assets acquired in business combinations.
Goodwill is not amortized, but is reviewed for impairment annually as of October 1st, or when events or changes in the
business environment indicate that the carrying value of the reporting unit may exceed its fair value, by comparing the fair
value of each reporting unit to its carrying value, including goodwill.
When assessing goodwill for impairment, first, qualitative factors are assessed to determine whether it is more likely than not
that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value. Items that are considered in the qualitative assessment
include, but are not limited to, the following: macroeconomic conditions, industry and market conditions and overall financial
performance. If the results of the qualitative assessment indicate it is more likely than not that a reporting unit’s carrying value
exceeds its fair value, or if the Company elects to bypass the qualitative assessment, a quantitative goodwill test is performed.

BALLY’S CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Intangible Assets
The Company’s intangible assets primarily consist of customer relationships, developed technology, internally developed
software, gaming licenses, backlog and trade names.
For its finite-lived intangible assets, the Company establishes a useful life upon initial recognition based on the period over
which the asset is expected to contribute to the future cash flows of the Company and periodically evaluates the remaining
useful lives to determine whether events and circumstances warrant a revision to the remaining amortization period. Finite-lived
intangible assets are amortized over their remaining useful lives in a pattern in which the economic benefits of the intangible
asset are consumed, which is generally on a straight-line basis. The Company reviews the carrying amount of its finite-lived
intangible assets for possible impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amount may
not be recoverable. Should events and circumstances indicate finite-lived intangible assets may not be recoverable, the
Company performs a test for recoverability whereby estimated undiscounted cash flows are compared to the carrying values of
the assets. Should the estimated undiscounted cash flows exceed the carrying value, no impairments are recorded. If the
undiscounted cash flows do not exceed the carrying values, an impairment is recorded based on the fair value of the asset.
Customer Relationships - The Company considers customer relationships to be finite-lived intangible assets, which are
amortized over their estimated useful lives, and are recognized as the result of a business combination.
Developed Technology - Developed technology relates to the design and development of sports betting and casino gaming
software and online gaming products acquired through business combinations. Developed technology is considered to be a
finite-lived intangible asset, which are amortized over their estimated useful lives.
Internally Developed Software - Software that is developed for internal use is accounted for pursuant to ASC 350-40,
Intangibles, Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software. Qualifying costs incurred to develop internal-use software are
capitalized when (i) the preliminary project stage is completed, (ii) management has authorized further funding for the
completion of the project and (iii) it is probable that the project will be completed and perform as intended. These capitalized
costs include compensation for employees who develop internal-use software and external costs related to development of
internal use software. Capitalization of these costs ceases once the project is substantially complete and the software is ready for
its intended purpose. Once placed into service, internally developed software is amortized on a straight-line basis over its
estimated useful life, which is generally five years. All other expenditures, including those incurred in order to maintain an
intangible asset’s current level of performance, are expensed as incurred.
Gaming Licenses - Gaming licenses obtained through business combinations are generally recorded at their fair values through
purchase accounting using the Greenfield Method under the income approach. Gaming licenses accounted for as asset
acquisitions are valued at cost. The Company considers its gaming licenses to be finite lived intangibles assets, amortized over
the individual license’s estimated useful life, which is determined by various factors such as the regulatory life of the license,
costs to renew, and whether the real property assets used to operate the license are subject to a long term le ase.
Trade Names - Certain trade names are classified as finite-lived based on expectations of future use and are amortized over their
estimated useful lives. The Company also has certain trade names, which are considered to be indefinite lived based on future
expectations of continuing to brand its corporate name and certain properties and online gaming operations under the Bally’s
trade name indefinitely. Intangible assets not subject to amortization are reviewed for impairment annually as of October 1 and
between annual test dates whenever events or changes in circumstances may indicate that the carrying amount of the related
asset may exceed its fair value.
Backlog - Represents the estimated fair value of contracted customer orders and committed future sales that existed but were
not yet fulfilled as of the acquisition date. The valuation includes only revenues that are contractually agreed to and specifically
identifiable at the acquisition date and excludes assumptions about renewals, future sales beyond the contracted period, or
expected synergies.
Refer to Note 10 “Goodwill and Intangible Assets” for further information.

BALLY’S CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Long-lived Assets
The Company reviews its long-lived assets, other than goodwill and intangible assets not subject to amortization, for indicators
of impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset or asset group may
not be recoverable. If an asset is still under development, the analysis includes the remaining construction costs. If the carrying
value of the asset exceeds the expected undiscounted future cash flows generated by the asset, the asset is written down to its
estimated fair value and an impairment loss is recognized.
Interest Expense, Net
Interest expense, net is comprised of interest costs for the Company’s debt, amortization of debt issuance costs, debt discounts
and fair value adjustments, interest costs associated with the Company’s deferred payable arrangements, net of interest income
earned on the note receivable (refer to Note 3 “Related Party Transactions”), amounts capitalized for construction projects,
realized changes in fair value relating to interest rate derivative contracts designated as cash flow hedges, and lease payments
associated with the Company’s financing obligation during the year ended December 31, 2023 (Predecessor).
Deferred Payables
In order to execute its strategy of improving working capital efficiency, the Company will, from time to time, participate in
trade finance or deferred payable initiatives, including programs that may extend trade terms with certain suppliers or vendors.
In certain cases, where the Company is not able to extend payment terms directly with suppliers or vendors, the Company will
consider deferred payable solutions that simulate such trade term extensions. These solutions generally involve entering into
exchange agreements with intermediary institutions who will make payment to the supplier or vendor within the original terms
on behalf of the Company, in exchange for a new bill with terms that conforms to the Company’s payment policy of net 90
days. The Company will then pay the new bill to the intermediary institutions, inclusive of any embedded premium, which the
Company records as “Interest expense, net,” within three months or less.
During the period from February 8, 2025 to December 31, 2025 (Successor), the period from January 1, 2025 to February 7,
2025 (Predecessor) and the year ended 2024 (Predecessor), the Company borrowed $272.1 million, $79.6 million and $239.1
million, respectively, under these deferred payable arrangements and repaid $313.6 million, $68.5 million and $165.4 million,
respectively. For the period from February 8, 2025 to December 31, 2025 (Successor), the period from January 1, 2025 to
February 7, 2025 (Predecessor) and the years ended 2024 (Predecessor), the Company incurred $8.7 million, 0.5 million, and
$6.4 million of interest expense, respectively, under these arrangements. Amounts outstanding under these deferred payable
arrangements were $47.0 million and 72.8 million as of December 31, 2025 (Successor) and December 31, 2024 (Predecessor),
respectively, and are included in “Accrued and other current liabilities” on the consolidated balance sheets. All outstanding
deferred payable arrangements as of December 31, 2025 (Successor) were held by Bally’s International Interactive.
Debt Issuance Costs, Debt Discounts and Fair Value Adjustments
Debt issuance costs and debt discounts incurred by the Company in connection with obtaining and amending financing, and fair
value adjustments in connection with business combinations have been included as a component of the carrying amount of debt
in the consolidated balance sheets. Debt issuance costs and debt discounts are amortized over the contractual term of the debt to
interest expense. Debt issuance costs of the revolving credit facility are amortized on a straight-line basis, while all other debt
issuance costs, debt discounts and fair value adjustments are amortized using the effective interest method. Amortization of debt
issuance costs, debt discounts and fair value adjustments included in “Interest expense” in the consolidated statements of
operations was $77.3 million, $1.0 million, and $11.7 million for the period from February 8, 2025 to December 31, 2025
(Successor), the period from January 1, 2025 to February 7, 2025 (Predecessor), and the year ended December 31, 2024
(Predecessor), respectively.
Self-Insurance Reserves
The Company is self-insured for employee medical insurance coverage, general liability and workers’ compensation up to
certain stop-loss amounts. Self-insurance liabilities are estimated based on the Company’s claims experience using actuarial
methods to estimate the future cost of claims and related expenses that have been reported but not settled and that have been
incurred but not yet reported. The self-insurance liabilities are included in “Accrued and other current liabilities” in the
consolidated balance sheets and wer e $32.8 million and $23.9 million as of December 31, 2025 (Successor) and 2024
(Predecessor), respectively.

Defined Contribution Plans
The Company operates defined contribution plans covering its non-union employees and certain union employees. The plans
allow for employee salary deferrals, which are matched at the Company’s discretion. Total employer contribution expense
attributable to defined contribution plans was $5.1 million, $1.0 million, and $10.3 million for the period from February 8, 2025
to December 31, 2025 (Successor), the period from January 1, 2025 to February 7, 2025 (Predecessor), and the year ended
December 31, 2024 (Predecessor), respectively.
Share-Based Compensation
The Company accounts for its share-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation
(“ASC 718”). The Company has one share-based employee compensation plan, which is described more fully in Note 16
“Equity Plans.” Share-based compensation consists of stock options, time-based restricted stock units (“RSUs”), restricted
stock awards (“RSAs”) and performance-based restricted stock units (“PSUs”). The grant date closing price per share of the
Company’s stock is used to estimate the fair value of RSUs and RSAs. Stock options are granted at exercise prices equal to the
fair market value of the Company’s stock at the dates of grant. The Company recognizes share-based compensation expense on
a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the individual grants. PSUs vest, when and if earned, in accordance with
the terms of the related PSU award agreements. The Company recognizes share-based compensation expense based on the
target number of shares of common stock that may be earned pursuant to the award and the Company’s stock price on the date
of grant and subsequently adjusts expense based on actual and forecasted performance compared to planned targets. Forfeitures
are recognized as reductions to share-based compensation when they occur.
Strategic Partnership - Sinclair Broadcast Group
In 2020, the Company and Sinclair Broadcast Group, Inc. (“Sinclair”) entered into the Framework Agreement, providing for a
long-term strategic relationship between Sinclair and the Company. Under the Framework Agreement, the Company issued to
Sinclair warrants to purchase up to 4,915,726 shares of the Company at an exercise price of $0.01 per share (“the Penny
Warrants”), a warrant to purchase up to 3,279,337 shares of the Company at an exercise price of $0.01 per share, subject to the
achievement of various performance metrics (the “Performance Warrants”), and an option to purchase up to 1,639,669
additional shares, in four tranches with purchase prices ranging from $30.00 to $45.00 per share, exercisable over a seven-year
period beginning in November 2024 (the “Options”). Additionally, the Company is required to share 60% of the tax benefits it
realizes from the Penny Warrants, Options, Performance Warrants and other related payments. Changes in the estimate of the
tax benefit to be realized and tax rates in effect at the time, among other changes, were treated as an adjustment to the intangible
asset.
In connection with the Queen merger, as of February 7, 2025, all outstanding Performance Warrants became immediately
exercisable at a price of $0.01 per share and the Options were returned to the Company in exchange for 384,536 penny
warrants. The Performance Warrants were reclassified from liability to equity as of February 7, 2025. Refer to Note 12 “Fair
Value Measurements” for more information.
Bally’s Chicago Service Agreements
The Company is party to various agreements relating to the operations of certain services at the Company’s Bally’s Chicago
Casino facilities, including a long-term management agreement with a provider to operate and manage certain hospitality
services at its permanent casino and resort upon opening. The Company expects to receive $50.0 million towards the
construction and build out of certain casino facilities related to such services, payable in installments over 2 years, subject to
certain conditions precedent (the “Bally’s Chicago Construction Investments”). Under the aforementioned hospitality services
agreement, the Company received $4.4 million of Bally’s Chicago Construction Investments in the third quarter of 2025. The
Bally’s Chicago Construction Investments are recorded in “Other long-term liabilities” and will be amortized as a reduction of
Non-gaming operating costs and expenses over the contract term upon commencement of operations at the permanent casino
and resort. Upon commencement of the management services, the Company will pay a management fee and a share of net
receipts to the providers, as applicable, which will be recognized as Non-gaming operating costs and expenses as incurred.
Revenue

Gaming Expenses
Gaming expenses include, among other things, payroll costs and expenses associated with the operation of VLTs, slots and
table games, including gaming taxes payable to jurisdictions in which the Company operates outside of Rhode Island and
Delaware, and certain marketing costs directly associated with the Company’s iGaming products and services. Gaming
expenses also include racing expenses comprised of payroll costs, off track betting (“OTB”) commissions and other expenses
associated with the operation of live racing and simulcasting.
Advertising Expenses
The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred. Advertising expenses, including production and agency fees of
campaigns, for the period from February 8, 2025 to December 31, 2025 (Successor), the period from January 1, 2025 to
February 7, 2025 (Pre decessor) and the year ended December 31, 2024 (Predecessor), was $12.9 million, $0.9 million, and
$12.2 million, respectively. The above advertising expenses are included in “General and administrative” on the consolidated
statements of operations. Additionally, the Company incurred certain advertising and marketing costs directly associated with
the Company’s iGaming products and services of $121.1 million, $12.6 million, and $170.1 million during the period from
February 8, 2025 to December 31, 2025 (Successor), the period from January 1, 2025 to February 7, 2025 (Predecessor) and the
year ended December 31, 2024 (Predecessor), respectively. These costs are included within Gaming expenses in the
consolidated statements of operations.
Income Taxes
The Company prepares its income tax provision in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes. Under the asset and liability
method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the
financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax
credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable
income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax
assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that the rate change is enacted. A valuation
allowance is required when it is “more likely than not” that all or a portion of the deferred taxes will not be realized. The
consolidated financial statements reflect expected future tax consequences of uncertain tax positions presuming the taxing
authorities’ full knowledge of the position and all relevant facts.
Loss Per Share
Basic loss per common share is calculated in accordance with ASC 260, Earnings Per Share, which requires entities that have
issued securities other than common stock that participate in dividends with common stock (“participating securities”) to apply
the two-class method to compute basic loss per common share. The two-class method is an earnings allocation method under
which basic loss per common share is calculated for each class of common stock and participating security as if all such
earnings had been distributed during the period. To calculate basic loss per share, the earnings allocated to common shares is
divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, c ontingently issuable warrants and RSUs, RSAs and
PSU s for which no future service is required as a condition to the delivery of the underlying common stock (collectively, basic
shares).
Foreign Currency
The Company’s functional currency is the US Dollar (“USD”). Foreign subsidiaries with a functional currency other than USD
translate assets and liabilities at current exchange rates at the end of the reporting periods, while income and expense accounts
are translated at average exchange rates for the respective periods. Translation adjustments resulting from this process are
recorded to other comprehensive income (loss). Gains or losses from foreign currency remeasurements that arise from exchange
rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in “Other non-
operating income (expense), net” on the consolidated statements of operations.
Comprehensive Income (Loss)
Comprehensive income (loss) includes changes in equity that result from transactions and economic events from non-owner
sources. Comprehensive income (loss) consists of net income (loss), changes in defined benefit pension plan, net of tax, foreign
currency translation adjustments, net of tax and unrealized gains (losses) relating to cash flow and net investment hedges, net of
tax.

Treasury Stock
The Company records the repurchase of shares of common stock at cost based on the settlement date of the transaction. These
shares are classified as treasury stock, which is a reduction to stockholders’ equity. Treasury stock is included in authorized and
issued shares but excluded from outstanding shares.
Business Combinations
The Company accounts for its acquisitions in accordance with ASC 805, Business Co mbinations (“ASC 805”). The Company
initially allocates the purchase price of an acquisition to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair
values, with any excess of consideration transferred recorded as goodwill. If the estimated fair value of net assets acquired and
liabilities assumed exceeds the purchase price, the Company records a gain on bargain purchase in earnings in the period of
acquisition. The results of operations of acquisitions are included in the consolidated financial statements from their respective
dates of acquisition. Costs incurred to complete the business combination such as investment banking, legal and other
professional fees are not considered part of consideration and are charged to general and administrative expense as they are
incurred.
Segments
Operating segments are identified as components of an enterprise that engage in business activities from which it recognizes
revenues and expenses, and for which discrete financial information is available and regularly reviewed by the chief operating
decision-maker in making decisions regarding resource allocation and assessing performance.
Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is determined using the principles of ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement. Fair value is described as the price that
would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the
measurement date. The fair value hierarchy prioritizes and defines the inputs to valuation techniques as follows:
•Level 1: Observable quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
•Level 2: Inputs are observable for the asset or liability either directly or through corroboration with observable
market data.
•Level 3: Unobservable inputs.
The inputs used to measure the fair value of an asset or a liability are categorized within levels of the fair value hierarchy. The
fair value measurement is categorized in its entirety in the same level of the fair value hierarchy as the lowest level input that is
significant to the measurement.
Derivative Instruments Designated as Hedging Instruments
Cross Currency Swaps - The Company uses fixed-to-fixed cross-currency swap agreements to hedge its exposure to adverse
foreign currency exchange rate movements for its foreign operations. The Company has elected the spot method for designating
these contracts as net investment hedges. These derivative arrangements qualified as net investment hedges unde r ASC 815
through the date of the Intralot transaction, with the gain or loss resulting from changes in the spot value of the derivative
reported in other comprehensive income (loss) with amounts reclassified out of other comprehensive income (loss) into
earnings when the hedged net investment is either sold or substantially liquidated. Refer to Note 11 “Derivative Instruments”
for further information.
Interest Rate Contracts - The Company uses interest rate derivatives to hedge its exposure to variability in cash flows on its
floating-rate debt to add stability to interest expense and manage its exposure to interest rate movements. The Company’s
interest rate swaps and collars are designated as cash flow hedges under ASC 815, with changes in the fair value reported in
other comprehensive income (loss) and reclassified into “Interest expense, net” in the consolidated statements of operations in
the same period in which the hedged interest payments associated with the Company’s borrowings are recorded. Refer to Note
11 “Derivative Instruments” for further information.

3.RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Disposition of Carved-Out Business
In the fourth quarter of 2024, the Company completed the sale of portions of its international interactive business in Asia and
certain other international markets in its Bally's Intralot B2C reportable segment (the “Carved-Out Business”) to a company
(the “Buyer”) formed by members of management of the Carved-Out Business for total consideration of $32.9 million, which
consisted of a €30 million seven-year term note, subject to applicable interest. The disposition includes the Company’s interest
in various contracts with Breckenridge Curacao B.V. (“Breckenridge”), which was previously determined to be a VIE and was
consolidated by the Company. The Company disposed of net assets of approximately $56.2 million, which include the
previously consolidated net assets of Breckenridge, and released foreign currency translation adjustments of $4.7 million.
Additionally, the Company held a net investment hedge on the net investment in the foreign operations sold and thus released
$9.1 million of accumulated other comprehensive income as a result of de-designating the hedge as of the disposal date. The
Company recorded a pre-tax loss of approximately $27.8 million upon the sale, which is included in “General and
administrative” in the consolidated statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2024 (Predecessor). The net assets
disposed of consisted primarily of goodwill of $20.7 million, and working capital including cash and cash equivalents of $4.2
million and restricted cash of $37.5 million, which consists of player related funds and funds held with payment service
providers, net of liabilities.
Additionally in connection with the disposition, the Company acquired penny warrants that represent a 19.99% fully diluted
equity interest in the Carved-Out Business, for approximately $1.9 million, which as a result is an unconsolidated entity
accounted for under the equity method and is considered to be a related party under ASC 850.
Ownership of certain intellectual property previously owned by Bally’s and used by the Carved-Out Business has been
transferred into an independent trust (“the Trust”). The Trust licenses the use of such intellectual property to the Carved-Out
Business under a commercial license arrangement, with licensing fees paid to the Trust by the Buyer for a term of five years
(subject to annual automatic extension) based on net gaming revenues of the Carved-Out Business. Any proceeds generated
from the Trust property are distributed to the Company by the Trust and are recognized as licensing revenue and included in
“Non-gaming revenue” in the consolidated statements of operations, as development of iGaming capabilities remains a core
part of Bally’s strategy.
Licensing revenue recognized by the Company was $19.3 million, $3.7 million, and $6.9 million during the period from
February 8, 2025 to December 31, 2025 (Successor), the period from January 1, 2025 to February 7, 2025 (Predecessor), and
the year ended December 31, 2024 (Predecessor), respectively.
During the period from February 8, 2025 to December 31, 2025, the Company recorded a provision for credit loss of $17.1
million, reducing the net carrying value of the seven-year term note to $17.1 million, included in Other assets within the
consolidated balance sheets, as of December 31, 2025 (Successor). The carrying value of the loan receivable was $31.2 million
as of December 31, 2024 (Predecessor) recorded in Other Assets.
The Company r ecorded interest income on the seven-year term note of $2.7 million, $0.3 million and $0.5 million included
within Interest expense, net in the consolidated statements of operations during the period from February 8, 2025 to December
31, 2025 (Successor), the period from January 1, 2025 to February 7, 2025 (Predecessor) and the year ended December 31,
2024 (Predecessor), respectively. Receivables from this equity method investee are included in Accounts receivable, net and
were $6.1 million and $1.1 million as of December 31, 2025 (Successor) and December 31, 2024 (Predecessor), respectively.
Variable Interest Entities
Management has concluded that the Trust established in connection with the aforementioned disposal of the Carved-Out
Business, is a VIE that will be consolidated based on the applicable criterion. Additionally, in connection with the acquisition of
a controlling interest in Intralot during the fourth quarter of 2025, the Company evaluated the variable interests held by Intralot
and concluded that DC09 LLC and Royal Highgate Ltd. are VIEs for which the Company is the primary beneficiary. As a
result, these entities are consolidated in the Company’s consolidat ed financial statements.
As of December 31, 2025 (Successor) and 2024 (Predecessor), consolidated VIEs had total assets of $60.8 million and
$263.9 million, respectively, and total liabilities of $18.6 million and $27.9 million, respectively. Consolidated VIEs had total
revenues of $19.3 million, $3.7 million and $169.8 million for the period from February 8, 2025 to December 31, 2025

6. REVENUE RECOGNITION
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 606, which requires the revenue to be recognized when a
performance obligation is satisfied by transferring the control of promised goods or services and is measured at the transaction
price or the amount of consideration that the Company expects to receive through satisfaction of the identified performance
obligations.
The Company generates revenue from six principal sources: (1) gaming (which includes retail gaming, online gaming,
consumer lottery, sports betting and racing), (2) hotel, (3) food and beverage, (4) licensing, (5) technology services and (6)
retail, entertainment and other.
Sales tax and other taxes collected on behalf of governmental authorities are accounted for on a net basis and are not included in
revenue or operating expenses.
Gaming Revenue
Performance Obligations
Retail gaming service contracts involving our land-based casinos, each have an obligation to honor the outcome of a wager and
to pay out an amount equal to the stated odds, including the return of the initial wager, if the customer receives a winning hand.
These elements of honoring the outcome of the hand of play and generating a payout are considered one performance
obligation, with an additional performance obligation for those customers earning incentives under the Company’s player
loyalty program.
Online gaming and sports betting represent a single performance obligation for the Company to operate contests or games and
award prizes or payouts to users based on results of the arrangement. For certain state-authorized sports betting contracts, the
Company operates and manages wagering services as an agent of the applicable government authority. Additionally, the use of
incentives across the online gaming products create future customer rights and are a separate performance obligation.
Racing revenue is earned through advance deposit wagering, which consists of patrons wagering through an advance deposit
account. Each wagering contract contains a single performance obligation.
Consumer lottery revenue is earned from jurisdictions where the Company has a license from the applicable government
authority to operate games to provide game management services. Each consumer lottery contract contains a single
performance obligation to stand ready to operate games and lotteries in the specific jurisdiction.
Transaction Price
The Company applies a practical expedient to account for its gaming contracts on a portfolio basis as such wagers have similar
characteristics and the Company reasonably expects the impact on the consolidated financial statements of applying the revenue
recognition guidance to the portfolio would not differ materially from the application of an individual wagering contract. The
transaction price for a retail gaming, online gaming or sports betting wagering contract is the difference between wins and
losses, not the total amount wagered. In addition, in the event of a multi-stage contest, the Company will allocate transaction
price ratably from contest start to the contest’s final stage.
The transaction price for racing operations, inclusive of live racing events conducted at the Company’s racing facilities, is the
commission received from the pari-mutuel pool less contractual fees and obligations, primarily consisting of purse funding
requirements, simulcasting fees, tote fees and certain pari-mutuel taxes that are directly related to the racing operations.
92
BALLY’S CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For purposes of allocating the transaction price in a wagering contract between the wagering performance obligation and the
obligation associated with incentives earned under loyalty programs, the Company allocates an amount to the loyalty program
contract liability based on the stand-alone selling price of the incentive earned. The performance obligation related to loyalty
program incentives are deferred and recognized as revenue upon redemption by the customer.
For certain consumer lottery contracts, payments to the applicable government authority for the license to operate are not
considered consideration payable to a customer under ASC 606. Accordingly, such payments are recognized as operating
expenses and are not presented as a reduction of revenue.
Revenue Recognition
The allocated revenue for retail gaming wagers is recognized when the wagering occurs as all such wagers settle immediately.
Online gaming revenue is recognized at the point in time when the player completes a gaming session and payout occurs.
Sports betting involves a player wagering money on an outcome or series of outcomes. If a player wins the wager, the Company
pays the player a pre-determined amount known as fixed odds, and its revenue is recognized as total wagers net of payouts
made and incentives awarded to players. Racing revenue includes several of our casinos and resorts’ share of wagering from
live racing and the import of simulcast signals, and is recognized upon completion of the wager based upon an established take-
out percentage. Consumer lottery revenue is recognized as tickets are sold and the variability is resolved.
Certain operations within the Company’s Casinos & Resorts and North America Interactive reportable segment act as an agent
in operating gaming services on behalf of the state in which they are licensed. At these respective casino properties, gaming
revenue is recognized when the wager is settled, which is when the customer has received the benefits of the Company’s
gaming services and the Company has a present right to payment. The Company recorded revenue from its operations in these
states on a net basis, which represents the percentage share entitled to the Company. Additionally, certain operations within the
Company’s B2C reportable segment act as an agent in providing virtual sports betting services on behalf of the applicable
government authority. The Company collects wagers from players, remits net proceeds to the applicable government authority
after payment of prizes, and retains a commission. As the Company does not control the underlying wagering activity, revenue
is recognized on a net basis in an amount equal to the commission to which the Company is entitled. Revenue is recognized
over time as wagering activity occurs and the outcome of the underlying bets is resolved.
Non-gaming Revenue
Performance Obligations
Hotel, food and beverage, licensing, and retail, entertainment and other services have been determined to be separate, stand-
alone performance obligations and revenue is recognized as the good or service is transferred at the point in time of the
transaction.
Technology services contracts involve the Company using its software to provide services related to customers’ lottery, VLT,
and sports betting operations. The Company will also provide related hardware and support services. Technology services
contracts can contain multiple performance obligations, including a performance obligation to stand ready to provide access to
the software throughout the contract term and distinct performance obligations for sales of related hardware and
implementation, customization, maintenance, and technical support services.
Transaction Price
The transaction price for hotel, food and beverage, licensing, and retail, entertainment and other, is the net amount collected
from the customer for such goods and services or under the license agreement. The estimated standalone selling price of hotel
rooms is determined based on observable prices. The standalone selling price of these goods and services are determined based
upon the actual retail prices charged to customers for those items.
The transaction price for technology services contracts is primarily variable and is generally based on either (i) a monthly fee
per enrolled machine, (ii) a percentage of gross revenue, or (iii) a percentage of net drop, which represents total amounts
wagered less winnings and payouts to players.

Revenue Recognition
Hotel revenue is recognized when the customer obtains control through occupancy of the room over their stay at the hotel.
Advance deposits for hotel rooms are recorded as liabilities until revenue recognition criteria are met. Food, beverage and retail
revenues are recognized at the time the goods are sold from Company-operated outlets. Licensing revenue is recognized under
the sales-and usage-based royalty exception available in ASC 606 for licenses of intellectual property whereby revenue is
recognized in the period that the underlying sale or usage occurs as the fees due to the Company are contingent and based on
the customer’s usage of the intellectual property. Technology services revenues from the use of the Company’s software to
provide services to customers are recognized over time as the variability is resolved. Other revenue includes cancellation fees
for hotel and meeting space services, which are recognized upon cancellation by the customer, and golf revenues from the
Company’s operations of Bally’s Golf Links, which are recognized at the time of sale. Additionally, other revenue includes
market access and business-to-business service revenue generated by the Bally's Intralot B2B and North America Interactive
reportable segments, which is recognized at the time the goods are sold or the service is provided, and are included in Non-
gaming revenue within our consolidated statements of operations.

Contract Assets and Contract Related Liabilities
The Company’s receivables related to contracts with customers are primarily comprised of marker balances, interactive
platform business-to-business service receivables, other amounts due from gaming activities, amounts due for hotel stays and
amounts due from tracks and OTB locations. The Company’s receivables related to contracts with customers were $57.5
million and $41.3 million as of December 31, 2025 (Successor) and 2024 (Predecessor), respectively.
The Company has the following liabilities related to contracts with customers: liabilities for loyalty programs, advance deposits
made for goods and services yet to be provided and unpaid wagers. All of the contract liabilities are short-term in nature and are
included in “Accrued and other current liabilities” in the consolidated balance sheet.
Loyalty program incentives earned by customers are typically redeemed within one year from when they are earned and expire
if a customer’s account is inactive for more than 12 months; therefore, the majority of these incentives outstanding at the end of
a period will either be redeemed or expire within the next 12 months.
Advance deposits are typically interactive player deposits and customer deposits for future banquet events, hotel room
reservations, and gift cards. The Company holds restricted cash for interactive player deposits and records a corresponding
withdrawal liability.
Unpaid wagers include the Company’s outstanding chip liability and unpaid slot, pari-mutuel and sports betting tickets.
Liabilities related to contracts with customers as of December 31, 2025 (Successor) and 2024 (Predecessor) were as follows:

7.BUSINESS COMBINATIONS
Intralot Transaction
As described in Note 1 “General Information”, the Company completed the Intralot Transaction on October 8, 2025, with the
Company obtaining a controlling financial interest in Intralot and retaining control of Bally’s International Interactive. The
transaction with Intralot was accounted for as a business combination in accordance with ASC 805, with the Company as the
accounting acquirer.
Intralot is a global gaming technology and services company that provides integrated lottery systems, sports betting solutions
and interactive gaming platforms to state-licensed gaming operators worldwide. The Intralot Transaction expands the
Company’s international gaming and technology footprint, enhances its digital and sports betting capabilities, and strengthens
its position as a vertically integrated gaming and entertainment operator, which aligns with the Company’s broader strategic
initiatives.
The preliminary fair value of the transaction consideration for the Company’s 57.9% interest in Intralot as of the Closing Date
was approximately $1.6 billion, which represents the fair value of Intralot shares issued to the Company plus the Company’s
pre-existing investment in Intralot of approximately $280.6 million as of the Intralot Closing Date. As disclosed in Note 2,
“Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” the Company’s previous investment in Intralot was accounted for as an equity
method investment under the fair value option and was adjusted to fair value immediately prior to closing of the transaction.

Non-controlling interest | (1,063,664)
Goodwill | 1,763,226
Total fair value of net assets acquired | $1,604,756

The purchase consideration has been allocated to the tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed
based upon their preliminary estimated fair values as of the acquisition date, with the excess of the purchase consideration over
the aggregate net fair values recorded as goodwill, which is not deductible for tax purposes. Qualitative factors that contribute
to the recognition of goodwill include an organized workforce and expected synergies from future cost savings and revenue
driven by the integration of Bally’s intellectual property into Intralot’s product offerings as well as cross selling product
offerings of Intralot and Bally’s International Interactive into existing and new markets. Goodwill has been assigned to the
segments expected to benefit from the transaction on a relative fair value basis, which includes $977.3 million and $785.9
million to the Bally's Intralot B2B and Bally's Intralot B2C segments, respectively. The Non-controlling interest was initially
measured at its fair value based on the trading price of Intralot stock on the date of closing. Certain adjustments have been made
to Intralot’s historical carrying values to conform accounting policies with the Company, including IFRS to US GAAP
conversion adjustments, with any such adjustments recorded to equity.
The Company recorded intangible assets based on estimates of fair value which consisted of the following:

|  | Valuation Approach |  | Estimated Useful Life (in years) |  | Estimated Fair Value
Developed technology |  | Relief from royalty method |  | 13 |  | $258,568
Intralot trade name |  | Relief from royalty method |  | 13 |  | 61,390
Customer relationships |  | Multi-period excess earnings method |  | 22 |  | 213,220
Backlog |  | Multi-period excess earnings method |  | 8 |  | 295,057
Total fair value of intangible assets |  |  |  |  |  | $828,235

The valuation of intangible assets was determined using an income approach methodology including the multi-period excess
earnings m ethod and the relief from royalty method. Level 3 inputs used in estimating future cash flows included terminal
growth rates of 3%, a royalty rate of 1.5% for the Intralot trade name and 15.0% for other acquired intangibles, discount rates
between 7.5% and 8.5%, and operating cash flows. The projected future cash flows are discounted to present value using an
appropriate discount rate. As of December 31, 2025 (Successor), the Company is in the process of completing its valuation of
tangible and intangible assets and the allocation of the purchase price to net assets, including the allocation of goodwill to
reporting units, which will be completed once the valuation process has been finalized.
The Company incurred $40.5 million of transaction-related expenses for the period from February 8, 2025 to December 31,
2025 (Successor) in connection with the transaction primarily related to legal and professional fees, which have been included
within “General and administrative” in the consolidate d statements of operations.

Merger with Queen Casino & Entertainment, Inc.
The Merger between the Company and Queen was accounted for as a transaction between entities under common control in
accordance with ASC 805, in which the accounting acquirer (Parent and its affiliates) obtained control of the Company. As
described in Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies”, the Company has elected to push down its Parent’s basis in
its net assets into its financial statements, and as a result, the net assets of the Predecessor were measured and recognized at
their fair values as of the acquisition date and were combined with those of Queen at Queen’s historical carrying amounts and
are presented on a combined basis. The following disclosures relate to the Company’s election to apply push down and show
the effect of the change in control.
The fair value of the Merger consideration was $955.6 million, which represents 52,364,192 total shares outstanding prior to the
Merger multiplied by the Merger value of $18.25 per share. Immediately following the transaction, the Company repurchased
22,804,384 shares at a price of 18.25 for a total repurchase price of $416.2 million.

BALLY’S CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The purchase consideration has been allocated to the tangible and identifiable intangible assets and liabilities based upon their
estimated fair values as of the acquisition date, with the excess of the purchase consideration over the aggregate net fair values
recorded as goodwill, which is not deductible for tax purposes. Accounts receivable, other assets, current liabilities and
inventories were stated at their historical carrying value, which approximates fair value given the short-term nature of these
assets and liabilities. The estimate of fair value for property and equipment and owned real property was based on an
assessment of the assets' condition as well as an evaluation of the current market value of such assets. The fair value of
leasehold interests were estimated based on evaluating contractual rent payments relative to market rent giving consideration to
the Company’s capitalization rates and rent coverage ratios, under the income method or by estimating the fee simple value and
estimated rate of return, depending on the nature of the underlying leasehold interest. In connection with remeasuring the
Company’s lease liabilities, unfavorable off-market components of $130.8 million were recognized as a decrease to the
Company’s right of use assets, and will be amortized as a reduction of lease expense on a straight line basis over the remaining
lease term.
The Company recorded intangible assets based on estimates of fair value which consisted of the following:

|  | Valuation Approach |  | Estimated Useful Life (in years) |  | Estimated Fair Value
Gaming licenses |  | Greenfield/Replacement Cost method |  | 2-18 |  | $716,998
Customer relationships |  | Multi-Period Excess Earnings/ Replacement Cost method |  | 1-7 |  | 348,034

Indefinite lived trade name |  | Relief from royalty method |  | Indefinite |  | 278,000
Total fair value of intangible assets |  |  |  |  |  | $1,819,421

The valuation of intangible assets was determined using income approach methodologies including the Greenfield method,
multi-period excess earnings method, relief from royalty method, and the replacement cost method. Level 3 inputs used in
estimating future cash flows included terminal growth rates of 3%, royalty rates between 2% and 19%, discount rates between
11% and 15%, operating cash flows, estimated construction costs, and pre-opening expenses, among others. The projected
future cash flows are discounted to present value using an appropriate discount rate. As of December 31, 2025 (Successor), the
Company has finalized its valuation of tangible and intangible assets and the allocation of the purchase price to the assets
acquired and liabilities assumed.
The Company incurred $22.7 million, $11.2 million and $14.8 million of transaction-related expenses for the period from
February 8, 2025 to December 31, 2025 (Successor), the period from January 1, 2025 to February 7, 2025 (Predecessor), and

10.GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS
2025 Annual Impairment Assessment
A s of October 1, 2025 (Successor), the Company performed its annual impairment assessment of goodwill and long lived assets
for all reporting units and asset groups. Each individual property within the Casinos & Resorts operating segment is determined
to be its own reporting unit and asset group. The reporting unit for the North America Interactive operating segment is the
operating segment. The reporting units for the Bally's Intralot B2C and Bally's Intralot B2B operating segments are grouped at
the geographical level.
99
BALLY’S CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The Company performed a quantitative test of a reporting unit and a long lived asset group within its Bally's Intralot B2B
operating segment due to declining projected cash flows in its licensing business. The carrying value of the reporting unit and
asset group exceeded their respective fair values, resulting in an impairment charge of $181.6 million. The goodwill within the
reporting unit was impaired by $72.5 million, and the fair value was determined through a discounted cash flow approach. The
valuation utilized level 3 inputs including projected cash flows, a market-based weighted average cost of capital (“WACC”) of
25% and a long term growth rate of 2%. The long lived assets within the group consisted of a licensing asset, which was
impaired by $109.1 million. The fair value of the asset group was determined using a relief from royalty method, which is a
discounted cash flow approach and utilized level three inputs including projected cash flows, a royalty rate of 19%, a WACC of
23%, and the C om pany’s estimates for probability of continuing use of the licensing asset.
For four indefinite lived gaming licenses in the Casinos & Resorts segment, the Company determined the useful life was no
longer indefinite, and the useful life was updated to be finite lived. In accordance with ASC 350, upon re-assessing the assets
as finite lived, an impairment test was performed. The Company valued the gaming licenses using the Greenfield Method under
the income approach which estimates the fair value of the gaming license using a discounted cash flow model assuming the
Company built a new casino with similar utility to that of the existing casino. Level 3 inputs to the valuation include estimating
projected revenues and operating cash flows, including terminal growth rates of 2%, estimated construction costs, and pre-
opening expenses and are discounted at a WACC of 10% for four licenses. The fair values of the four gaming licenses exceeded
their respective carrying values and no impairment was recorded.
For all other reporting units, indefinite lived intangible assets and long lived asset groups, the Company performed a qualitative
analysis for the annual assessment of goodwill (commonly referred to as “Step Zero”). From a qualitative perspective, in
evaluating whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit exceeds its carrying amount, relevant events
and circumstances are taken into account, with greater weight assigned to events and circumstances that most affect the fair
value or the carrying amounts of its assets. Items that were considered included, but were not limited to, the following:
macroeconomic conditions, industry and market conditions and overall financial performance, and the most recent quantitative
assessment performed for the reporting unit. After assessing these and other factors, the Company determined that it was more
likely than not that the fair value of the reporting units subject to the qualitative assessment exceeded their carrying amounts as
of October 1, 2025 (Successor). If future results vary significantly from current estimates and related projections, the Company
may be required to record impairment charges.
2025 Interim Impairment
During the fourth quarter of 2025, the UK announced an increase of the remote gaming duty tax from 21% to 40%, effective in
April 2026. As a result of this announcement, the Company identified a triggering event to assess impairment at a reporting unit
within its Bally's Intralot B2C operating segment and performed a quantitative test for impairment. The estimated fair value of
the reporting unit was determined through a combination of a discounted cash flow model and market-based approach, which
utilized inputs including future cash flow projections for the reporting units, terminal growth rates of 3%, and discount rates of
12.0%. The result of this assessment did not result in any impairment as fair value exceeded carrying value. If future results
significantly vary from current estimates and related projections, the Company may be required to record impairment.
2024 Annual Impairment Assessment
As of October 1, 2024 (Predecessor), the Company performed its annual impairment assessment of goodwill and long lived
assets for all reporting units and asset groups. Each individual property within the Casinos & Resorts operating segment is
determined to be its own reporting unit and asset group. The reporting units for the North America Interactive and Bally's
Intralot B2C operating segments are the operating segments.
The Company performed a quantitative test of goodwill for its Bally's Intralot B2C reporting unit and one reporting unit within
the Casinos & Resorts operating segment and determined that the fair value of the reporting units exceeded their respective
carrying amounts and thus, there was no impairment. The estimated fair value of the reporting units were determined through a
combination of a discounted cash flow model and market-based approach, which utilized Level 3 inputs including future cash
flow projections for the reporting units, terminal growth rates of 3% and discount rates of 15% and 11%. If future results
significantly vary from current estimates and related projections, the Company may be required to record impairment charges.

BALLY’S CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the North America Interactive reporting unit and all other reporting units within the Casinos & Resorts segment with
goodwill, the Company performed a qualitative analysis for the annual assessment of goodwill (commonly referred to as “Step
Zero”). From a qualitative perspective, in evaluating whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit
exceeds its carrying amount, relevant events and circumstances are taken into account, with greater weight assigned to events
and circumstances that most affect the fair value or the carrying amounts of its assets. Items that were considered included, but
were not limited to, the following: macroeconomic conditions, industry and market conditions and overall financial
performance, and the most recent quantitative assessment performed for the reporting unit. After assessing these and other
factors, the Company determined that it was more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting units subject to the
qualitative assessment exceeded their carrying amounts as of October 1, 2024 (Predecessor). If future results vary significantly
from current estimates and related projections, the Company may be required to record impairment charges.
For four indefinite lived gaming licenses in the Casinos & Resorts segment, the Company determined it had an indicator of
impairment based on declines in actual or projected results compared to those projected when the gaming licenses were
originally valued at acquisition. The Company valued the gaming licenses using the Greenfield Method under the income
approach which estimates the fair value of the gaming license using a discounted cash flow model assuming the Company built
a new casino with similar utility to that of the existing casino. Level 3 inputs to the valuation include estimating projected
revenues and operating cash flows, including terminal growth rates between 2% and 3%, estimated construction costs, and pre-
opening expenses and is discounted at a market-based WACC, which was between 10% and 11% for three licenses. The fair
values of three of the four gaming licenses were below their respective carrying values and the Company recorded a combined
impairment loss of $38.6 million. The fair value of the fourth gaming license exceeded its carrying value.
For all other indefinite lived intangible assets, the Company performed a qualitative assessment of impairment and determined
that it was more likely than not that the fair values of all assets exceed their carrying values as of October 1, 2024 (Predecessor).
If future results vary significantly from current estimates and related projections, the Company may be required to record
impairment charges.
2024 Interim Impairment
During the fourth quarter of 2024 (Predecessor), the Company divested a component within the Bally's Intralot B2B operating
segment (refer to Note 3 “Related Party Transactions” for further information). As a result of this divestiture, the Company
allocated goodwill on a relative fair value basis to the divested component which also triggered the need for an interim
impairment assessment. The Company estimated the fair value of the reporting units using both income and market-based
approaches. Specifically, the Company applied the discounted cash flow (“DCF”) method under the income approach. The
Company relied on the present value of expected future cash flows, including terminal value, utilizing a market-based WACC
determined separately for the reporting unit as of the valuation date. The determination of fair value under the DCF method
involved the use of significant Level 3 inputs and assumptions, including revenue growth rates driven by expected future
activity, operating margins, capital expenditures, working capital requirements, tax rates, terminal growth rates of 3%, and a
discount rate of 16%. The fair value of the reporting unit exceeded its carrying value and thus no impairment was recorded. The
Company allocated $20.7 million to the component that was divested, which was subsequently de-recognized.
As a result of this divestiture, the Company identified a triggering event related to a long lived asset group within its Bally's
Intralot B2B operating segment. The triggering event was the result of the expected future cash flows of the asset group being
below the carrying value of the long lived assets and therefore, a quantitative impairment analysis was performed. The fair
value of the intangible assets were determined using a relief from royalty method, which utilized Level 3 inputs and was
exceeded by the carrying value, indicating an impairment. Inputs to the valuation included revenue projections derived from the
intangible assets, a discount rate of 16% and royalty rates between 3% and 12%. As a result of the analysis, the Company
recorded an aggregate $197.5 million impairment charge in its Bally's Intralot B2B operating segment. The Company allocated
the loss first to intangible assets, in the amount of $125.9 million, and then the residual of $71.6 million to goodwill. These
charges are recorded within “Impairment charges” in the consolidated statements of operations.

BALLY’S CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
During the year ended December 31, 2024 (Predecessor), the Company settled $500.0 million of notional interest rate collars
and received $3.9 million in termination payments, reflecting the fair value on the settlement date. The fair value on the
settlement date is recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), which will be reclassified into
“Interest expense, net” in the consolidated statements of operations in the same period in which the hedged interest payments
associated with the Company’s borrowings are recorded. Additionally, the Company simultaneously entered into a series of
interest rate contracts in a notional aggregate amount of $1.00 billion, to further manage the Company’s exposure to interest
rate movements associated with the Company’s variable rate Term Loan Facility through its synthetic conversion to fixed rate
debt. The tenor of these contracts were matched with the maturity of the Term Loan Facility tranche maturing on October 1,
2028.
Additionally, the Company is a party to a series of interest rate contracts and cross currency swap derivative transactions with
multiple bank counterparties in order to synthetically convert a notional aggregate amount of $500.0 million of the Company’s
USD denominated variable rate Term Loan Facility, as disclosed in Note 14 “Long-Term Debt,” into fixed rate debt over five
years and $200 million of the Term Loan Facility, to an equivalent GBP denominated floating rate instrument over three years.
These contracts mature in Octo ber 2028 and 2026, respectively.
Cross Currency Swaps
Net Investment Hedges - The Company is exposed to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates on investments it holds in its
European foreign entities. The Company uses fixed and fixed-cross-currency swaps to hedge its exposure to changes in the
foreign exchange rate on its foreign investment in Europe and their exposure to changes in the EUR-GBP exchange rate.
Currency forward agreements involve fixing the USD-EUR exchange rate for delivery of a specified amount of foreign
currency on a specified date. The currency forward agreements are typically cash settled in USD for their fair value at or close
to their settlement date. Cross-currency swaps involve the receipt of functional-currency-fixed-rate amounts from a
counterparty in exchange for the Company making foreign-currency-fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreement. These
derivative arrangements qualified as net investment hedges under ASC 815, with the gain or loss resulting from changes in the
spot value of the derivative reported in other comprehensive income (loss). Amounts are reclassified out of other
comprehensive income (loss) into earnings when the hedged net investment is either sold or substantially liquidated.
Additionally, the accrual of foreign currency and USD denominated coupons are recognized in “Interest expense, net” in the
consolidated statements of operations.
Economic Hedges - During the fourth quarter of 2024 (Predecessor), as a result of the sale of the Carved-Out Business, the
Company de-designated its EUR-GBP cross currency swaps as net investment hedges and began recording changes in fair
value of the derivative and the accrual of foreign currency and USD denominated coupons through earnings reported in Other
non-operating income (expense), net in the consolidated statements of operations. At the time of de-designation, the total
amount of accumulated other comprehensive loss was $9.1 million and was recorded as part of Loss on disposal of business in
General and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. Refer to Note 3 “Related Party Transactions,”
Note 12 “Fair Value Measurements” and Note 17 “Stockholders’ Equity” for further information.
During the fourth quarter of 2025 (Successor), concurrent with the Intralot Transaction, the Company de-designated its USD-
GBP cross currency swaps as net investment hedges and began recording changes in fair value of the derivative and the accrual
of foreign currency and USD denominated coupons through earnings reported in Other non-operating income (expense), net in
the consolidated statements of operations. Refer to Note 1 “General Information” and Note 7 “Business Combinations” for
further information.
The following tables summarize the Company’s cross currency swap arrangements as of December 31, 2024 (Predecessor). The
Company did not have any cross currency swap arrangements designated as hedging instruments as of December 31, 2025
(Successor).

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Cash Flow Hedges
Interest Rate Contracts - The Company’s objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to hedge its exposure to variability in
cash flows on a portion of its floating-rate debt, to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate
movements. To accomplish these objectives, the Company primarily uses interest rate swaps and collars as part of its financial
risk and liability management policy. The Company’s interest rate swaps and collars are designated as cash flow hedges under
ASC 815. The changes in the fair value of these instruments are recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive
income (loss) and reclassified into “Interest expense, net” in the consolidated statements of operations in the same period in
which the hedged interest payments associated with the Company’s borrowings are recorded. Refer to Note 12 “Fair Value
Measurements” and Note 17 “Stockholders’ Equity” for further information.
As of December 31, 2025 (Successor) and December 31, 2024 (Predecessor), the Company’s cash flow hedges included interest
rate swaps of $1.5 billion, respectively. Refer to Note 12 “Fair Value Measurements” for further information.
Foreign Exchange Forward Contracts
During the third quarter of 2025, the Company entered into a series of foreign exchange forward contracts (the “Deal
Contingent FX Forwards”) to hedge the EUR cash proceeds to be received in connection with the sale of its international
interactive business to Intralot. The Company agreed to sell total notional amounts of €1.00 billion and buy USD at fixed
exchange rates between 1.16489 and 1.18390. The Deal Contingent FX Forwards do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment
and are therefore carried at fair value with gains or losses recorded to Other non-operating income (expense), net. Refer to Note
12 “Fair Value Measurements” for further information. The Deal Contingent FX Forwards settled upon completion of the deal
with Intralot in October 2025.

Derivative Instruments
The fair values of interest rate contracts and cross currency swap assets and liabilities are classified within Level 2 of the fair
value hierarchy as the valuation inputs are based on estimates using currency spot and forward rates and standard pricing
models that consider the value of future cash flows as of the balance sheet date, discounted to a present value using discount
factors that match both the time to maturity and currency of the underlying instruments. These standard pricing models utilize
inputs that are derived from or corroborated by observable market data such as interest rate yield curves as well as currency spot
and forward rates. When designated as hedging instruments, changes in the fair value of these contracts are reported as a
component of other comprehensive income (loss). When not designated as hedging instruments, changes in fair value of these
contracts are reported within Other non-operating income (expense), net in the consolidated statements of operations.

Sinclair Performance Warrants
Sinclair Performance Warrants were accounted for as a derivative instrument classified as a liability within Level 3 of the
hierarchy through February 7, 2025 (Predecessor) as the warrants are not traded in active markets and are subject to certain
assumptions and estimates made by management related to the probability of meeting performance milestones. These
assumptions and the probability of meeting performance targets may have a significant impact on the value of the warrant. The
Performance Warrants were valued using an option pricing model, considering the Company’s estimated probabilities of
achieving the performance milestones for each tranche. Inputs to this valuation approach include volatility between 40% and
67%, risk free rates between 3.84% and 4.79%, the Company’s common stock price for each period and expected terms
between 1.5 and 6.3 years. In connection with the Queen Merger, as of February 7, 2025, all outstanding Performance Warrants
became immediately exercisable at a price of $0.01 per share and were reclassified out of liabilities and into equity and are no
longer measured at fair value. The fair value is recorded within “Other long-term liabilities” of the consolidated balance sheets
as of December 31, 2024 (Predecessor).
Contingent consideration
In connection with the acquisition of Bally’s Golf Links on September 12, 2023 (Predecessor), the purchase price included
future cash payments totaling up to $125 million to the seller, based upon future events, which were uncertain at the time of
acquisition. The Company recorded contingent consideration at fair value as a liability on the acquisition date, which was
subsequently remeasured at each reporting date within “Other, non-operating expenses, net” in the consolidated statements of
operations. The contingent consideration was valued at $59.9 million as of December 31, 2024 (Predecessor) and $123.9
million as of December 31, 2025 (Successor). As of December 31, 2024 (Predecessor), Level 3 inputs to this valuation
approach included the Company’s estimated probabilities of achieving the conditions for payment, expected terms between 1.5
and 3 years, and discount rates between 7.2% and 7.8%. As of December 31, 2025 (Successor), the contingency related to
$115 million of the $125 million total payments was resolved and is payable in 2026. As such, that contingency was marked to
its fair value of $115 million and is classified as a current liability.
Fair Value Option Equity Method Investments
The Company has long-term investments in unconsolidated entities which it accounts for under the equity method of
accounting. The Company has elected the fair value option allowed by ASC 825, with respect to these investments. Under the
fair value option, the investments are remeasured at fair value at each reporting period through earnings. The Company
measures fair value using quoted prices in active markets that are classified within Level 1 of the hierarchy, with changes to fair
value included within Other non-operating (expense) income, net of the consolidated statements of operations.
Investment in GLPI Partnership
The Company holds a limited partnership interest in GLP Capital, L.P. (“GLP”), the operating partnership of GLPI. The
investment is reported at fair value based on Level 2 inputs, with changes to fair value included within “Other non-operating
income (expense), net” in the consolidated statements of operations.
Long-term debt
The fair value of the Company’s Term Loan Facility and senior notes are estimated based on quoted prices in active markets
and are classified as Level 1 measurements. The fair value of the Revolving Credit Facility approximates its carrying amount as
it is revolving, variable rate debt, and is also classified as a Level 1 measurement. In the table below, the carrying amounts of
the Company’s long-term debt is net of debt issuance costs, debt discounts and fair value adjustments. Refer to Note 14 “Long-
Term Debt” for further information.

a rate equal to, at the Company’s option, either (1) the term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”), adjusted for certain
additional costs and subject to a floor of 0.50% in the case of term loans and 0.00% in the case of revolving loans or (2) a base

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
In September 2025, the Company executed a Third Amendment to the Credit Agreement (“Amendment No. 3”) and an
Incremental Joinder Agreement that collectively extended and increased the revolving credit facility and updated certain
covenants and pricing provisions. Following the effectiveness of these amendments, which was subject to regulatory approvals
and obtained in January 2026, a portion of the revolving credit facility will mature in 2028, while the remaining portion will
mature in 2026. The amendments also provide for reductions in revolving commitments and related prepayments if specified
transactions are completed. The revolving credit facility will continue to bear interest, at the Company’s option, at a SOFR-
based or base-rate benchmark plus an applicable margin determined by the Company’s consolidated total-leverage ratio. The
Credit Facilities continue to be guaranteed by the Company’s restricted subsidiaries (subject to customary exceptions) and
secured by a first-priority lien on substantially all of the assets of the Company and such guarantors. Amendment No. 3 also
refined the financial maintenance covenant applicable to the revolving lenders and reduced the utilization threshold at which the
covenant becomes effective to 25%.

15.LEASES
Operating Leases
The Company is committed under various operating lease agreements for real estate and property used in operations. Certain
leases include various renewal options which are included in the lease term when the Company has determined it is reasonably
certain of exercising the options. Certain of these leases include percentage rent payments based on property revenues and/or
rent escalation provisions determined by increases in the CPI. These percentage rent and escalation provisions are treated as
variable lease payments and recognized as lease expense in the period in which the obligation for those payments are incurred.
Discount rates used to determine the present value of the lease payments are based on the Company’s incremental borrowing
rate commensurate with the term of the lease.
The Company had total operating lease liabilities of $1.93 billion and $1.62 billion as of December 31, 2025 (Successor) and
2024 (Predecessor), respectively, and right of use assets of $1.77 billion and $1.54 billion as of December 31, 2025 (Successor)
and 2024 (Predecessor), respectively, which were included in the consolidated balance sheets.
GLPI Leases
As of December 31, 2025 (Successor), the Company leases certain properties from GLPI under two separate master lease
agreements, the “Master Lease,” and the “Master Lease No. 2.” The Company’s Bally’s Evansville, Bally’s Dover, Bally’s
Quad Cities, Bally’s Black Hawk, Bally’s Tiverton and Hard Rock Biloxi properties are leased under the terms of the “Master
Lease” which requires combined initial minimum annual payments of $101.5 million. The Company’s Bally’s Kansas City and
Bally’s Shreveport properties are leased under the terms of the “Master Lease No. 2” which requires combined initial minimum
annual payments of $32.2 million. All components of the Master Lease and Master Lease No. 2 are accounted for as operating
leases within the provisions of A SC 842, over the lease term or until a re-assessment event occurs. Both leases have an initial
term of 15 years and include four, five-year options to renew and are subject to a minimum 1% annual escalation or greater
escalation dependent on CPI. The renewal options are not reasonably certain of exercise as of December 31, 2025 (Successor).
Following the Merger, as of June 20, 2025 (Successor), the Company also has a master lease agreement through Queen with
GLPI, the “Queen Master Lease”, with The Queen Baton Rouge, Bally's Baton Rouge Casino and Hotel, Casino Queen
Marquette and DraftKings at Casino Queen properties originally being leased under the terms of the Queen Master Lease,
which required initial combined minimum annual payments of $31.7 million. All components of the Queen Master Lease are
accounted for as operating leases within the provisions of ASC 842, over the lease term or until a re-assessment event occurs.
The Queen Master Lease has an initial term of 15 years and includes four, five-year options to renew and is subject to annual
escalation. The renewal options are not reasonably certain of exercise as of December 31, 2025 (Successor).
Effective July 1, 2025 (Successor), the DraftKings at Casino Queen and The Queen Baton Rouge properties were transferred to
Master Lease No. 2 and the associated annual payments of $28.9 million were reallocated from the Casino Queen Master Lease
to Master Lease No. 2. This was treated as a lease modification event where lease payments were reallocated across
components of the Master Lease No. 2 on a relative fair value basis and the right of use assets and lease liabilities were
remeasured.
In addition to the properties under the master leases explained above, the Company leases land associated with Tropicana Las
Vegas under a ground lease established with GLPI in 2022. This lease has an initial term of 50 years, with the possibility of
extending up to 99 years through renewal options, and requires initial minimum annual payments of $10.5 million, subject to
minimum 1% annual escalation or greater escalation dependent on CPI. In 2024, the Company modified the lease and GLPI
paid $48.6 million to the Company to fund the demolition of the building at the Tropicana Las Vegas site in exchange for
increasing initial annual payments by $4.1 million, subject to a minimum 1% annual increase or greater based on CPI, for a
total modified initial minimum annual payment of $14.6 million. The lease modification did not change the lease classification.
As of December 31, 2025 (Successor), the renewal options are not considered reasonably certain to be exercised.
On July 17, 2025, the Company entered into a new master lease agreement with GLP (the “Chicago MLA”), that amended the
existing ground lease for the property on which the Company plans to develop its Permanent Facility and a development
agreement with GLP (the “Chicago Development Agreement”) pursuant to which GLP has committed to advance up to $940
million (the “GLP Development Advances”) for the payment of hard costs used to construct the Permanent Facility in exchange
for increasing the amount of rent payable to GLP under the Chicago MLA.
116
BALLY’S CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The Chicago MLA has an initial term of 15 years and includes four, five-year options to renew and is subject to annual
escalation. Annual rent under the Chicago MLA is $20 million, with additional rent equal to 8.5% of the GLP Development
Advances that are granted to the Company. The amended and restated ground lease was considered a lease termination in the
third quarter due to the Company ceasing to control the use of the land effective upon signing of the Chicago MLA. As a result
of the termination, the right of use asset and lease liability were derecognized, and a $0.5 million gain on lease termination was
recorded. Under the Development Agreement, as construction occurs, the Company will recognize a construction receivable on
the consolidated balance sheets due from the GLP. To the extent costs exceed the amount to be reimbursed by GLP, such costs
are considered prepaid rent, which will be added to the associated operating lease right of use asset once the lease commences.
As of December 31, 2025 (Successor), the construction receivable balance was $63.2 million, classified within Accounts
receivable, net, and the prepaid rent balance was $175.8 million, classified within Other assets. In addition, the Company
incurred a loss on sale of assets to GLP of $8.7 million during the third quarter of 2025 related to construction costs previously
capitalized that were determined not to represent prepaid rent, including capitalized interest of $4.8 million. This loss is
classified within General and administrative on the Consolidated Statement of Operations. During the fourth quarter of 2025,
the Company received reimbursements from GLP of $201.6 million.

based compensation arrangements (including RSA, RSU and PSU arrangements and stock options) which is expected to be
recognized over a weighted average period of 1.2 years.
Restricted Stock Units and Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units
Under the 2021 Incentive Plan, RSUs and PSUs have been awarded to eligible employees, members of the Company’s senior
management and certain members of its Board of Directors. Each RSU and PSU represents the right to receive one share of the
Company’s common stock. RSUs generally vest in one-third increments over a three year period and compensation cost is
recognized over the respective service periods based on the grant date fair value. PSUs generally vest over a three year period
depending on the individual award agreement and become eligible for vesting upon attainment of performance objectives for
the performance period. The number of PSUs that may become eligible for vesting varies and is dependent upon whether the
performance targets are met, partially met or exceeded each year. The fair value of RSUs and PSUs is based on the Company’s
common stock price as of the grant date.
The following summary presents information of equity-classified RSU and PSU activity for the period from February 8, 2025

The Company does not reinvest undistributed earnings, and accordingly, the Company has determined that no deferred tax
liability is required for undistributed foreign earnings as of December 31, 2025 (Successor) and 2024 (Predecessor). In addition,
the Company has recorded a deferred tax liability to other comprehensive income related to the translation of the financial
statements of foreign subsidiaries as of December 31, 2025 (Successor) and will continue to monitor for future changes.
124
BALLY’S CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The Company’s deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets
and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. The Company will only recognize
a deferred tax asset when, based on available evidence, realization is more likely than not. The Company has assessed its
deferred tax liabilities arising from taxable temporary differences and has concluded such liabilities are not a sufficient source
of income for the realization of deferred tax assets, including indefinite life taxable temporary differences which offset, subject
to limitation, deferred tax assets with unlimited carry overs, such as the Section 163(j) interest limitation. Accordingly, a $275.1
million and $234.6 million valuation allowance has been established as of December 31, 2025 (Successor) and 2024
(Predecessor), respectively.
As of December 31, 2025 (Successor) there was $217.3 million of federal net operating carryforwards subject to a section 382
limitation with an unlimited carryforward period, and $590.1 million of state net operating loss carryforwards, which expire at
various dates through 2045.
The Internal Revenue Code (IRC) Section 382 provides for a limitation of the annual use of net operating loss and tax credit
carryforwards following certain ownership changes (as defined by the IRC Section 382) that limits the Company’s ability to
utilize these carryforwards prior to expiration. Section 382 can also apply when we acquire subsidiaries with net operating loss
carryforwards, as there may be limitations on the use of acquired net operating losses against our taxable income.
From time to time, the Company may be subject to audits covering a variety of tax matters by taxing authorities in any taxing
jurisdiction where the Company conducts business. While the Company believes that the tax returns filed and tax positions
taken are supportable and accurate, some tax authorities may not agree with the positions taken. As of December 31, 2025
(Successor), there was $20.6 million tax contingency accruals and deferred tax asset reductions for uncertain tax positions, of
which $18.1 million would impact the effective tax rate, if recognized. This can give rise to tax uncertainties which, upon audit,
may not be resolved in the Company’s favor. A reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances of the gross liability for
uncertain tax positions is as follows (in thousands):

Uncertain tax position liability at December 31, 2023 (Predecessor) | $29,286
Increases related to tax positions taken during the period | (4,462)
Uncertain tax position liability at December 31, 2024 (Predecessor) | 24,824
Decreases related to tax positions taken during the period | (19)
Uncertain tax position liability at February 7, 2025 (Predecessor) | 24,805
Uncertain tax position liability at February 8, 2025 (Successor) | $26,747
Decreases related to tax positions taken during prior periods | (586)
Decreases related to settlements with taxing authorities | (5,539)
Uncertain tax position liability at December 31, 2025 (Successor) | $20,622

The Company records interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions as a component of the income tax provision
(benefit). The Company has reserved interest and penalties on uncertain tax positions of $0.8 million as of December 31, 2025
(Successor). The Company has reserved interest and penalties on uncertain tax positions of $1.0 million as of December 31,
2024 (Predecessor). The Company has recorded a $0.2 million benefit for interest on uncertain tax positions on the consolidated
statements of operations for the period from February 8, 2025 to December 31, 2025 (Successor). The Company has recorded a
$0.3 million provision for interest on uncertain tax positions on the consolidated statements of operations for the year ended
December 31, 2024 (Predecessor).
The Company and its subsidiaries file tax returns in several jurisdictions including the US and various US state and foreign
jurisdictions. The Company remains subject to examination for US federal income tax purposes for the years ended December
31, 2015 through 2025 (Successor), as a result of a 2020 net operating loss carryback claim. The Company remains subject to
examination for state and foreign income tax purposes for the years ended December 31, 2014 through 2025. The Company
settled the appeal of its audit by the State of Colorado during the period from February 8, 2025 to December 31, 2025
(Successor). In addition, the disallowance of a loss carryforward generated in a period outside of the normal statute of
limitations is generally open until the statute of limitations expires in the year of the utilization of the loss.

19.COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
L itigatio n
The Company is a party to other various legal and administrative proceedings which have arisen in the ordinary course of its
business. Estimated losses are accrued for these proceedings when the loss is probable and can be estimated. The current
liability for the estimated losses associated with these proceedings is not material to the Company’s consolidated financial
condition and those estimated losses are not expected to have a material impact on results of operations. Although the Company
maintains what it believes is adequate insurance coverage to mitigate the risk of loss pertaining to covered matters, legal and
administrative proceedings can be costly, time-consuming and unpredictable.
Although no assurance can be given, the Company does not believe that the final outcome of these matters, including costs to
defend itself in such matters, will have a material adverse effect on the company’s consolidated financial statements. Further, no
assurance can be given that the amount or scope of existing insurance coverage will be sufficient to cover losses arising from
such matters.
New York Conveyance Agreement
On November 17, 2025, the Company entered into a Conveyance Agreement (the “Conveyance Agreement”) with the City of
New York (the “City”) and Bally’s New York Operating Company, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a
subsidiary of the Company (“Bally’s New York”). Pursuant to the Conveyance Agreement, the City agreed to (i) dispose of
certain parkland property interests to Bally’s New York (the “Development Parcel”), (ii) alienate certain parkland in order to
grant Bally’s New York a non-exclusive easement over such lands for purposes of accessing the Development Parcel and (iii)
discontinue certain lands as parkland and alienate and transfer jurisdiction of such lands to the City’s Department of
Transportation for use as public roadways (the “Ring Road Parcel”) to facilitate access to the Development Parcel and so the
Development Parcel may be used by the Company for a gaming facility.
The closing of the transactions contemplated by the Conveyance Agreement occurred in February 2026 and was contingent
upon, among other things, (i) Bally’s New York’s agreement to (a) make certain capital improvements to Ferry Point Park in
the Bronx, NY with a fair market value of approximately $161 million and (b) to del iver security instruments to the City to
secure the performance and completion of such capital improvements, (ii) the Company being awarded a downstate gaming
facility license from the New York State Gaming Commission, (iii) payment by Bally’s New York to the City’s Department of
Parks & Recreation of an administrative fee in the amount of $1 million, (iv) Bally’s New York’s agreement to pay for all costs
and expenses for the development and mapping of the Ring Road Parcel and (v) Bally’s New York’s payment of real property
transfer taxes with respect to the transactions contemplated by the Conveyance Agreement.

New York Gaming License Commitments
In December 2025, the Company was awarded one of New York State’s three downstate commercial casino licenses for its
planned Bally’s Bronx project, requiring the Company to pay a $500 million licen se fee, which was paid in the first quarter of
2026, as well as post a bond or cash deposit equal to 5% of the total project investment. The Company must also implement its
community benefit commitments, including periodic public reporting, and engage an independent Compliance Monitoring
Team approved by the New York State Gaming Commission to oversee regulatory, anti‑money‑laundering, and
community‑benefit compliance.
Capital Expenditure Commitments
Bally’s Twin River - Pursuant to the terms of the Regulatory Agreement in Rhode Island, the Company is committed to invest
$100 million in its Rhode Island properties over the term of the master contract through June 30, 2043, including an expansion
and the addition of new amenities at Bally’s Twin River. As of December 31, 2025 (Successor), approximately $40.5 million of
the commitment remains.
Bally’s Chicago - Pursuant to the Host Community Agreement with the City of Chicago, the Company’s indirect subsidiary is
required to spend at least $1.34 billion on the design, construction and outfitting of the temporary casino and the permanent
resort and casino. The actual cost of the development may exceed this minimum capital investment requirement. In addition,
land acquisition costs and financing costs, among other types of costs, are not counted toward meeting this requirement. As of
December 31, 2025 (Successor), approximately $800.0 million of this commitment remains.
Bally’s New York - As noted above pursuant to the Conveyance Agreement, Bally’s New York must spend $161 million in
capital improvements to Ferry Point Park to be completed within 7 years after closing.
City of Chicago Guaranty
In connection with the Host Community Agreement, entered into by Bally’s Chicago Operating Company, LLC (the
“Developer”), a wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of the Company, the Company provided the City of Chicago with a
performance guaranty whereby the Company agreed to have and maintain available financial resources in an amount reasonably
sufficient to allow the Developer to complete its obligations under the Host Community Agreement. In addition, upon notice
from the City of Chicago that the Developer has failed to perform various obligations under the Host Community Agreement,
the Company has agreed to indemnify the City of Chicago against any and all liability, claim or reasonable and documented
expense the City of Chicago may suffer or incur by reason of any nonperformance of any of the Developer’s obligations.
Bally’s Chicago Casino Fees
Under the Illinois Gambling Act, the Company will be responsible to pay the Illinois Gaming Board a reconciliation fee
payment three years after the date operations commenced (in a temporary or permanent facility) in an amount equal to 75% of
the adjusted gross receipt (“AGR”) for the most lucrative 12-month period of operations, minus the amount equal to the initial
payment per gaming position paid.
Performance and other bonds
Certain contracts require the Company to provide a surety bond as a guarantee of performance for the benefit of customers.
These bonds give beneficiaries the right to obtain payment and/or performance from the issuer of the bond if certain specified
events occur. In the case of performance bonds, such events include the Company’s failure to perform its required obligations
under the applicable contracts. In general, the Company would only be liable for these guarantees in the event of breach of its
obligations and failure to perform under each applicable contract, which the Company determined is not probable. Accordingly,
no liability has been recorded as of December 31, 2025 (Successor) and 2024 (Predecessor) related to these bonds.
Sponsorship Commitments
As of December 31, 2025 (Successor), the Company has entered into multiple sponsorship agreements with various
professional sports leagues and teams. These agreements commit a total of $114.9 million through 2036 and grant the Company
rights to use official league marks for branding and promotions, among other benefits.

Interactive Technology Commitments
The Company has certain multi-year agreements with its various market access and content providers, as well as its online
sports betting platform partners, that require the Company to pay variable fees based on revenue, with minimum annual
guarantees. As of December 31, 2025 (Successor), the cumulative minimum obligation committed in these agreements is $32.1
million through 2029.
Collective Bargaining Agreements
As of December 31, 2025 (Successor), the Company had approximately 11,700 employees. A large number of our employees at
our Casinos & Resorts properties within several US states are represented by a labor union and are subject to collective
bargaining agreements with us. As of December 31, 2025 (Successor), the Company had 36 collective bargaining agreements
covering approximately 3,679 employees. All collective bargaining agreements are in good standing and most have been
renegotiated with terms between three and five years. Th ere can be no assurance that we will be able to extend or enter into
replacement agreements. If the Company is able to extend or enter into repl acement agreements, there can be no assurance as to
whether the terms will be on comparable terms to the existing agreements.
20.SEGMENT REPORTING
D uring the first quarter of 2025, the Company moved a component of the North America Interactive operating segment into a
separate operating segment, which is reported in the Corporate & Other category. In the fourth quarter of 2025, the Company
further updated its operating and reportable segments in connection with the Intralot Transaction. These changes were made to
better align with the Company’s strategic growth initiatives and how its chief operating decision maker evaluates performance
and allo cates resources. As a result, the Company determined it had four operating and reportable segments: Casinos & Resorts,
Bally's Intralot B2B, Bally's Intralot B2C, and North America Interactive. Prior period reportable segment results and related
disclosures have been conformed to reflect the Company’s current reportable segments.
The Company’s four reportable segments as of December 31, 2025 (Successor) include:
Casinos & Resorts - Includes 19 casino and resort properties, one horse racetrack and one golf course.
Bally's Intralot B2B - Includes Intralot’s B2B global lottery and technology services operations and the Company’s licensing
business.
Bally's Intralot B2C - Includes the Company’s interactive European gaming operations, Intralot’s B2C lottery operations, as
well as one casino property, Bally's Newcastle, in the UK.
North America Interactive - A portfolio of sports betting and iGaming offerings in the United States and Canada.
The “Corporate & Other” category includes interest expense, select immaterial operating segments, unallocated corporate
operating expenses, and other adjustments, such as the elimination of inter-segment transactions, to reconcile with the
Company's consolidated results. This category further accounts for other expenses such as share-based compensation,
acquisition and transaction costs, and other non-recurring charges.
The Company’s chief operating decision maker is its Executive Committee, consisting of the Chief Executive Officer,
President, and Chief Financial Officer. The Company uses consolidated Adjusted EBITDA and segment Adjusted EBITDAR to
analyze the performance of its business and they are used as determining factors for performance-based compensation for
members of the Company’s management team. The Company uses consolidated Adjusted EBITDA and segment Adjusted
EBITDAR when evaluating the operating performance of the business because management believes that the inclusion or
exclusion of certain recurring and non-recurring items is necessary to provide a more fulsome understanding of the core
operating results and as a means to evaluate period-to-period performance.
Management believes segment Adjusted EBITDAR is representative of its ongoing business operations including its ability to
service debt and to fund capital expenditures, acquisitions and operations, in addition to it being a commonly used measure of
performance in the gaming industry and used by industry analysts to evaluate operations and operating performance.

BALLY’S CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
As of December 31, 2025 (Successor), the Company’s operations were predominately in the US and Europe with a less
substantive footprint in other countries world-wide. For geographical reporting purposes, revenue generated outside of the US
consists primarily of revenue from the UK. Revenue generated from the UK represented approximately 28% and 32% of total
revenue, respectively, during the period from February 8, 2025 to December 31, 2025 (Successor) and the period from January
1, 2025 to February 7, 2025 (Predecessor). During the year ended December 31, 2024 (Predecessor), revenue generated outside
o f the US consisted primarily of revenue from the UK and Japan of approximately 28% and 6% of total revenue, respectively.
The Company does not have any revenues from any individual customers that exceed 10% of total reported revenues.
The following table sets forth revenue and Adjusted EBITDAR for the Company’s four reportable segments and reconciles
Adjusted EBITDAR on a consolidated basis to net loss. The Other category is included in the following tables in order to

(4)The Company recorded a $6.3 million charge to reduce amounts due from payment service providers (“PSP”) due to a circumstance whereby the payment
processer for certain online sports wagering deposits failed to capture and settle funds with patrons of the Company. The Company was not able to
recover the full amount due from the payment service provider, resulting in a write down to the recoverable amount. In addition to amounts recovered, the
Company received $5.1 million from the PSP as a signing bonus for entering into an extension agreement.

ITEM 9.CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND
FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE
None.
ITEM 9A.CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Management’s Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our chief executive officer (principal executive officer) and chief financial officer
(principal financial officer), conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of
December 31, 2025, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended (the “Exchange Act”). Based on this evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer have concluded
that during the period covered by this report, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to a
material weakness in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting described below.
Notwithstanding the ineffective disclosure controls and procedures as a result of the identified material weakness, our chief
executive officer and chief financial officer have concluded that the consolidated financial statements in this Annual Report on
Form 10-K present fairly, in all material respects, the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP).
Deloitte & Touche LLP, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm that audited the Consolidated Financial
Statements for the period from February 8, 2025 to December 31, 2025 (Successor) and period from January 1, 2025 to
February 7, 2025 (Predecessor), issued an attestation report on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting which
immediately follows this report.
Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal
control over financial reporting is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act as a process designed by, or
under the supervision of, the Company’s principal executive and principal financial officers and effected by the Company’s
Board, management and other personnel to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial statements for
external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that:
•pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and
dispositions of the assets of the Company;
•provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are
being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and
•provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition
of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
133
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements.
Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risks that controls may become inadequate
because of changes in conditions or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Management
assessed the effectiveness of its Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025 (Successor). In
making this assessment, management used the criteria established in the Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013) issued
by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“the COSO framework”). Based on evaluation
under the criteria established in the COSO framework, management determined, based upon the existence of the material
weakness described below, we did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025
(Successor).
A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that a
reasonable possibility exists that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements would not be prevented
or detected on a timely basis.
Material Weakness Identified
Management has identified a material weakness, in the aggregate, related to the ineffective operation of management review
controls over accounting for income taxes and related disclosures.
Management has developed a remediation plan that includes reinforcing procedures for the timely preparation and review of tax
provisions and evaluating the structure of its tax department to enable more timely preparation of the tax provision and provide
adequate time to review the tax accounts and related disclosures.
Remediation of Previously Identified Material Weaknesses
As disclosed in Part II, Item 9A., “Controls and Procedures,” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December
31, 2024 (Predecessor), we identified control deficiencies during 2024 (Predecessor) that constituted a material weakness
relating to the lack of segregation of duties over the preparation, review, and recording of journal entries within our Bally’s
Intralot B2C reportable segment. We reinforced remediation efforts throughout 2024 (Predecessor) and monitored operating
effectiveness on a quarterly basis. As of December 31, 2025 (Successor), Management concluded this material weakness was
remediated. Specifically, the following plans were implemented and determined to be operating effectively:
•Educated control owners within the Bally’s Intralot B2C reportable segment of the appropriate design elements of
journal entry controls and enforcing policies requiring independent preparers and reviewers.
•Implemented a new enterprise resource planning (“ERP”) system, which enhanced the flow of financial information,
improved data management and control and enabled us to remediate segregation of duties over journal entries by
systematically requiring an independent preparer and reviewer of each journal entry.
•Enhanced monitoring controls designed to detect and remediate inappropriate segregation of duties over journal entry
review and approval.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
During the period from February 8, 2025 to December 31, 2025 (Successor) and period from January 1, 2025 to February 7,
2025 (Predecessor), the Company completed its acquisitions of Queen Casino & Entertainment, Inc. and Intralot, collectively
(the “Acquired Companies”). Since the Company has not yet fully incorporated the internal controls and procedures of the
Acquired Companies into the Company’s internal control over financial reporting, management excluded the Acquired
Companies from its assessment of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December
31, 2025 (Successor). These acquisitions on a combined basis constituted approximately $1.2 billion or 10.4% of the
Company’s total consolidated assets that were excluded from the scope of Management’s assessment, and approximately
$314.2 million or 12.6% of the Company’s consolidated revenues as of and for the period from February 8, 2025 to December
31, 2025 (Successor).
Other than the material weakness noted above, the remediation of the previously disclosed material weakness, and addition of
the Acquired Companies, there has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the
quarter ended December 31, 2025 (Predecessor) covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K that has materially affected, or is
reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the shareholders and the Board of Directors of Bally’s Corporation
Opinion on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
We have audited the internal control over financial reporting of Bally's Corporation and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of
December 31, 2025 (successor), based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the
Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). In our opinion, because of the effect of the
material weakness identified below on the achievement of the objectives of the control criteria, the Company has not
maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025 (successor), based on criteria established
in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by COSO.
We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States)
(PCAOB), the consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2025 (successor), and for the periods from February 8,
2025 to December 31, 2025 (successor) and from January 1, 2025 to February 7, 2025 (predecessor), of the Company and our
report dated March 23, 2026, expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements.
As described in Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting, management excluded from its assessment
the internal control over financial reporting at Queen Casino & Entertainment, Inc., (“Queen”) and Intralot S.A., and whose
financial statements constitute approximately $1.2 billion or 10.4% of the Company’s total consolidated assets as of December
31, 2025 (successor), and approximately $314.2 million or 12.6% of the Company’s consolidated revenues for the period from
February 8, 2025 to December 31, 2025 (successor). Accordingly, our audit did not include the internal control over financial
reporting at Queen and Intralot S.A.
Basis for Opinion
The Company's management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its
assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management's Report
on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's internal control over
financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be
independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the
audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all
material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk
that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the
assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit
provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting
A company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the
reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles. A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures
that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and
dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit
preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and
expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the
company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or
disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also,
projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate
because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
135
Material Weakness
A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that
there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be
prevented or detected on a timely basis. The following material weakness has been identified and included in management's
assessment: Management has identified a material weakness, in the aggregate, related to the ineffective operation of
management review controls over accounting for income taxes and related disclosures. This material weakness was considered
in determining the nature, timing, and extent of audit tests applied in our audit of the consolidated financial statements as of
December 31, 2025 (successor), and for the periods from February 8, 2025 to December 31, 2025 (successor) and from January
1, 2025 to February 7, 2025 (predecessor), of the Company, and this report does not affect our report on such financial
statements.
