See Note 3 for additional information related to MCE. Recent Developments Related to COVID-19 In late 2019, an outbreak of COVID-19 was identified in China and has since spread throughout much of the world. The COVID-19 pandemic had an adverse effect on the Company’s 2020 results of operations and financial condition, and impacted the Company’s results of operations to a lesser extent in the first half of 2021 because the Company’s United States properties were open and operating during this period. The table below provides a summary of the time periods in which the Company’s casinos, hotels and other facilities have been closed to comply with quarantines issued by governments to contain the spread of COVID-19. The Company’s casinos have varied their operations based on the governmental health and safety requirements in the jurisdictions in which they are located. These include capacity and gaming floor restrictions and limited hours of operations.
Operating Segment | Closure Date | Reopen Date | Gaming Floor Open
Colorado | March 17, 2020 | June 15 and June 17, 2020 | 100%
Missouri | March 17, 2020 | June 1, 2020 | 94%
West Virginia | March 17, 2020 | June 5, 2020 | 100%
Edmonton | March 17, 2020 | June 13, 2020 |
| December 13, 2020 | June 10, 2021 | 100%
Calgary | March 17, 2020 | June 13, 2020 |
| December 13, 2020 | June 10, 2021 | 100%
Poland | March 13, 2020 | May 18, 2020 |
| December 29, 2020 | February 12, 2021 |

The Company continues to monitor its liquidity in light of the uncertainty resulting from COVID-19. The Company plans to continue its reduced marketing expenditures and operational expenditures where possible. The Company’s 2021 planned capital expenditure projects will be evaluated throughout the year and postponed to 2022 if necessary and permitted under its agreements. In March 2020, as a proactive measure to increase its cash position and preserve financial flexibility, the Company borrowed an additional $9.95 million on its $10.0 million revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Facility”) under its credit facility (“Macquarie Credit Agreement”) with Macquarie Capital (“Macquarie”) and $7.4 million on its credit agreement with UniCredit Bank Austria AG (“UniCredit”). The Revolving Facility was repaid in July 2020 except for a $50,000 letter of credit that was repaid in May 2021. The $7.4 million credit agreement with UniCredit was refinanced in June 2021 to a EUR 6.0 million term loan repayable through December 31, 2025. See Note 5 for further discussion of the Macquarie Credit Agreement and the UniCredit credit agreement. The duration and impact of the COVID-19 pandemic remains uncertain. The Company cannot predict the negative impacts that COVID-19 will have on its consumer demand, workforce, suppliers, contractors and other partners and whether future closures will be required. Such closures have had a material impact on the Company’s financial results. The effects of COVID-19, ongoing governmental health and safety requirements and any future closures could have a material impact on the Company. Other Projects and Developments Caruthersville In July 2021, the Missouri law requiring each casino to be a floating facility was amended to allow casino facilities to be built as a standard building with a container with at least 2,000 gallons of water beneath the facility. The law will become effective on August 28, 2021. This change provides an opportunity for Century Casino Caruthersville, the last remaining riverboat casino on open water in Missouri, to move to a non-floating facility. The Company is exploring moving the casino from the riverboat but does not have an estimated cost or completion date. On July 16, 2021, the Company announced that it had purchased land and a small two-story hotel near Century Casino Caruthersville with plans to refurbish the existing hotel’s 36 rooms by early 2022. The Company estimates this project will cost approximately $1.5 million. ‎ Century Casino Calgary On August 5, 2020, the Company announced that it had entered into an agreement to sell the casino operations of Century Casino Calgary for CAD 10.0 million ($7.5 million based on the exchange rate on August 5, 2020) plus a three year quarterly earn out as specified in the agreement. The transaction closed on December 1, 2020. During the first quarter of 2021, the Company paid CAD 0.1 million ($0.1 million based on the exchange rate on February 12, 2021) in working capital adjustments under the purchase agreement. The Company continues to operate Century Sports, and to own the underlying real estate. Upon closing of the transaction, the Company entered into a three year lease agreement with the purchaser of the casino operations for annual net rent for the land and building of CAD 0.5 million ($0.4 million based on the exchange rate on June 30, 2021). In December 2020, the Company began to market the sale of the land and building that it owns in Calgary. The sale is expected to occur by the end of 2021. As of June 30, 2021, the held for sale assets include $4.9 million in land and $3.6 million in buildings and improvements, net of accumulated depreciation. Century Casino Bath In March 2020, CCB was closed due to COVID-19. Due to challenging conditions that included historical and forecast losses due to changes in the regulatory environment for casinos in England requiring enhanced due diligence of customers, CCB’s board of directors determined that it would enter into creditors voluntary liquidation and control of CCB was relinquished. Under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 810, Consolidation, specifically ASC 810-10-15, consolidation of a majority-owned subsidiary is precluded where control does not rest with the majority owners. Accordingly, when a subsidiary is in legal reorganization or files for bankruptcy, it is appropriate for the parent to deconsolidate the subsidiary. The Company will not regain control of CCB and determined that it was appropriate to deconsolidate CCB effective as of May 6, 2020. The Company recognized a gain of $7.4 million in general and administrative expenses on its condensed consolidated statements of loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020. Preparation of Financial Statements The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) for interim financial reporting, the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission which apply to interim financial statements and the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with US GAAP have been condensed or omitted. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for the fair presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company have been included. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. The results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year.

Use of Estimates – The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. Management’s use of estimates includes estimates for property and equipment, goodwill, intangible assets and income tax. Presentation of Foreign Currency Amounts – The Company’s functional currency is the US dollar (“USD” or “$”). Foreign subsidiaries with a functional currency other than the US dollar 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. The Company and its subsidiaries enter into various transactions made in currencies different from their functional currencies. These transactions are typically denominated in the Canadian dollar (“CAD”), Euro (“EUR”), Polish zloty (“PLN”) and British pound (“GBP”).
