After selling the casino operations of Century Casino Calgary in August 2020, the Company continued to own the land and building and continued to operate Century Sports, a sports bar, bowling and entertainment facility located on the property. In February 2022, the Company sold the land and building in Calgary, transferred the lease agreement for the casino premises to the buyer, and ceased operating Century Sports. See “Terminated Projects” below in this Note 1 for additional information about the Calgary property.

The Company’s Colorado and West Virginia subsidiaries have partnered with sports betting and iGaming operators to offer sports wagering and online betting through mobile apps.

The Company has a controlling financial interest through its wholly-owned subsidiary Century Resorts Management GmbH (“CRM”) in the following majority-owned subsidiaries:

The Company owns 66.6% of Casinos Poland Ltd (“CPL” or “Casinos Poland”). As of June 30, 2023, CPL owned and operated eight casinos throughout Poland. CPL is consolidated as a majority-owned subsidiary for which the Company has a controlling financial interest.

Recent Developments Related to COVID-19

Since the inception of the COVID-19 pandemic in March 2020, the Company varied its casinos’ operations based on the governmental health and safety requirements in the jurisdictions in which they are located. The COVID-19 pandemic impacted the Company’s results of operations in 2020 and the first half of 2021, and into the first quarter of 2022 for its Canada properties. Currently, the Company’s operations have no health and safety requirements for entry and few other COVID-19 related restrictions. 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 and the effects of COVID-19, ongoing governmental health and safety requirements and any future closures could have a material impact on the Company. The Company will continue to monitor its liquidity and make reductions to marketing and operating expenditures, where possible, if future government mandates or closures are required that would have an adverse impact on the Company.

Other Projects and Developments

Nugget Casino Resort in Sparks, Nevada

In February 2022, the Company entered into a definitive agreement with Marnell, pursuant to which a newly formed subsidiary of the Company agreed to purchase from Marnell (i) 50% of the membership interests in Smooth Bourbon, and (ii) 100% of the membership interests in Nugget. Nugget owns and operates the Nugget Casino Resort in Sparks, Nevada, and Smooth Bourbon owns the real property on which the casino is located.

The Company purchased 50% of the membership interests in Smooth Bourbon for approximately $95.0 million (the “Smooth Bourbon Acquisition”) at the first closing, which occurred on April 1, 2022 (the “First Closing”). The Company used approximately $29.3 million of cash on hand and borrowings under the Goldman Credit Agreement (see Note 5) in connection with the First Closing. On April 3, 2023 (the “Second Closing”), the Company purchased 100% of the membership interests in Nugget for approximately $104.7 million (subject to certain adjustments) (the “OpCo Acquisition” and, together with the Smooth Bourbon Acquisition, the “Nugget Acquisition”). The purchase price for the OpCo Acquisition was paid from proceeds of the term loan under the Goldman Credit Agreement deposited in escrow (“Acquisition Escrow”) on the First Closing date. Following the Second Closing, the Company owns the Nugget Casino Resort and 50% of the membership interests in Smooth Bourbon. The Company also has a five year option through April 1, 2027 to acquire the remaining 50% of the membership interests in Smooth Bourbon for $105.0 million plus 2% per annum. At the First Closing, Smooth Bourbon entered into a lease with Nugget for an annual rent of $15.0 million.

Rocky Gap Casino Resort in Flintstone, Maryland

In August 2022, the Company entered into a definitive agreement with Golden Entertainment Inc. (“Golden”), Lakes Maryland Development, LLC, a subsidiary of Golden (“Lakes Maryland”), and VICI Properties, L.P., an affiliate of VICI (“VICI PropCo”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to acquire the operations of Rocky Gap Casino Resort (“Rocky Gap” and, such transaction, the “Rocky Gap Acquisition”). Pursuant to a real estate purchase agreement, dated August 24, 2022, by and between Evitts Resort, LLC, a subsidiary of Golden (“Evitts”), and an affiliate of VICI PropCo (“VICI PropCo Buyer”), VICI PropCo Buyer agreed to acquire a related interest in the land and building associated with Rocky Gap from Evitts.

On July 25, 2023, the Company purchased the operations of Rocky Gap for approximately $61.2 million (subject to certain adjustments), and VICI PropCo Buyer purchased a related interest in the land and building associated with Rocky Gap for approximately $203.9 million. In connection with the Rocky Gap Acquisition, subsidiaries of the Company and a subsidiary of VICI PropCo entered into an amendment to their triple net lease agreement (the “Master Lease”) that (i) adds Rocky Gap to the Master Lease, (ii) provides for an increase in initial annualized rent of approximately $15.5 million and (iii) extends the initial Master Lease term for 15 years from the date of the amendment (subject to the existing four five year renewal options). See Note 15 for additional information.

Canadian Real Estate Sale

On May 16, 2023, the Company entered into definitive agreements for subsidiaries of VICI to acquire the real estate assets of Century Casino & Hotel Edmonton in Edmonton, Alberta, Century Casino St. Albert in Edmonton, Alberta, Century Mile Racetrack and Casino in Edmonton, Alberta and Century Downs Racetrack and Casino in Calgary, Alberta (collectively, the “Century Canadian Portfolio”) for an aggregate purchase price of CAD 221.7 million ($167.3 million based on the exchange rate on June 30, 2023) in cash (the “Canada Real Estate Sale”). Simultaneous with the closing of the transaction, the Century Canadian Portfolio will be added to the Master Lease and annual rent will increase by CAD 17.3 million ($13.1 million based on the exchange rate on June 30, 2023). Additionally, the term of the Master Lease will be extended such that, upon closing of the transaction, the lease will have a full 15-year initial base lease term, with four 5-year renewal options. The transaction is subject to customary regulatory approvals and closing conditions and is expected to close in the third quarter of 2023.

Recent Developments Related to Century Casino Caruthersville

The Caruthersville casino had operated on a riverboat and barge since 1994. On October 13, 2022, the riverboat had to be closed as it was no longer accessible from the barge because of the record low water levels in the Mississippi River. On October 26, 2022, the Missouri Gaming Commission (“MGC”) approved the relocation of the casino at Century Casino Caruthersville from the riverboat and barge to a land-based pavilion until the new land-based casino and hotel are completed, as discussed below. The riverboat had 519 slot machines and seven table games. From October 2022 to December 2022, the casino operated only from the barge with 299 slot machines and four table games. The move to the pavilion, which has 416 slot machines and six table games, was completed in December 2022. The pavilion building will not be affected by water levels, is protected by a flood wall and provides for easier access to the casino for customers than the riverboat. The riverboat and barge were removed on February 25, 2023.

Caruthersville Land-Based Casino and Hotel

The Company is building a new land-based casino with a 38 room hotel adjacent to and connected with the existing casino pavilion building. Construction on the project began in December 2022 and it is expected to be completed in the second half of 2024 with an estimated project cost of $51.9 million. The Company is financing this project through financing provided by VICI PropCo. As of June 30, 2023, the Company has received $19.8 million in financing from VICI PropCo and has spent $9.9 million of those funds on this project.

Caruthersville Hotel

In July 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. The Company opened the hotel, called The Farmstead, on October 30, 2022 with a total project cost of $3.6 million.

Cape Girardeau Hotel

The Company is building a 69 room hotel at its Cape Girardeau location. The hotel is planned as a six story building with 68,000 square feet that will be adjacent to and connected with the existing casino building. Construction on the project began in September 2022, and it is expected to be completed in the first half of 2024. The Company estimates a project cost of approximately $30.5 million. The Company is financing the project with cash on hand. As of June 30, 2023, the Company has spent $12.1 million on this project.

Terminated Projects

Century Sports

In August 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. The Company received earn out payments of CAD 0.9 million ($0.7 million based on the exchange rate on June 30, 2023) and CAD 1.7 million ($1.3 million based on the exchange rate of June 30, 2023) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, that are recorded to gain on sale of casino operations in its condensed consolidated statement of (loss) earnings. After the sale, the Company continued to operate Century Sports and to own the underlying real estate. On February 10, 2022, the Company sold the land and building in Calgary for CAD 8.0 million ($6.3 million based on the exchange rate on February 10, 2022) at which time the Company transferred the lease agreement for the casino premises to the buyer and ceased operating Century Sports. Century Sports was included in the Canada reportable segment.

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, 2022. The results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year.

Reclassifications – Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation in the condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes thereto.

Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash – A reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash as stated in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of cash flows is presented in the following table:

|  | June 30, |  | June 30,
Amounts in thousands |  | 2023 |  | 2022
Cash and cash equivalents |  | $ | 108,595 |  | $ | 96,168
Restricted cash |  |  | — |  |  | 100,050
Restricted cash included in deposits and other |  |  | 247 |  |  | 193
Total cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash shown in the consolidated statement of cash flows |  | $ | 108,842 |  | $ | 196,411

As of June 30, 2023, the Company had $0.2 million related to payment of prizes and giveaways for Casinos Poland and less than $0.1 million related to an insurance policy in restricted cash included in deposits and other on its condensed consolidated balance sheet. As of June 30, 2022, the Company had $100.1 million related to the Acquisition Escrow in restricted cash on its condensed consolidated balance sheet and $0.2 million related to payments of prizes and giveaways for Casinos Poland, and less than $0.1 million related to an insurance policy in restricted cash included in deposits and other on its condensed consolidated balance sheet.

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”) and Polish zloty (“PLN”). Gains and losses resulting from changes in foreign currency exchange rates related to these transactions are included in income from operations as they occur.

The exchange rates to the US dollar used to translate balances at the end of the reported periods are as follows:

|  | As of June 30, |  | As of December 31,
Ending Rates |  | 2023 |  | 2022
Canadian dollar (CAD) |  | 1.3253 |  | 1.3550
Euros (EUR) |  | 0.9200 |  | 0.9393
Polish zloty (PLN) |  | 4.0879 |  | 4.4004

Equity Investment – On April 1, 2022, the Company purchased 50% of the membership interests in Smooth Bourbon. Smooth Bourbon owns the real property on which the Nugget Casino is located. The additional 50% of the membership interests in Smooth Bourbon is held by Marnell. At the time of the purchase of its 50% membership interests in Smooth Bourbon, the Company completed an assessment of whether Smooth Bourbon is a variable interest entity in which it has a financial interest. Based on this assessment, the Company concluded that Smooth Bourbon was not subject to consolidation under the guidance for variable interest entities prior to the Nugget Acquisition because Nugget is the primary beneficiary of Smooth Bourbon. After the Second Closing on April 3, 2023, the Company began consolidating Smooth Bourbon as a subsidiary for which it has a controlling financial interest. See Note 3 for additional information about Smooth Bourbon.

2.SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Accounting Pronouncements Adopted – The Company has adopted the following accounting pronouncement:

In March 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-01, Leases (Topic 842); Common Control Arrangements (“ASU 2023-01”). The objective of ASU 2023-01 is to address stakeholder concerns about amortizing leasehold improvements for lease arrangements between entities under common control. ASU 2023-01 states that the leasehold improvements by a lessee under common control are to be amortized over the useful life of the leasehold improvements and adjusted through equity when the lessee no longer controls the use of the underlying asset. Early adoption of ASU 2023-01 is permitted. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023. The Company has adopted ASU 2023-01 as of January 1, 2023. Adoption of the standard had no material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

The Company has considered all other recently issued accounting pronouncements and does not believe the adoption of such pronouncements will have a material impact on its financial statements or notes thereto.

3. ACQUISITION AND EQUITY INVESTMENT

Acquisition – Nugget

On April 3, 2023, the Company completed its previously announced Nugget Acquisition of 100% of the membership interests in Nugget Sparks, LLC from Marnell. Nugget Sparks, LLC operates the Nugget Casino Resort, located in Sparks, Nevada. The Nugget Acquisition was financed with funds previously borrowed from the Company’s Goldman Credit Agreement. In connection with the Nugget Acquisition, the Company made an initial payment to Marnell of $104.7 million on April 3, 2023. This amount included a base price of $100.0 million plus an adjustment based on the estimated working capital of Nugget at closing.

As of April 3, 2023, the Company began consolidating Nugget as a wholly-owned subsidiary. Nugget contributed $27.0 million in net operating revenue and $2.8 million in net earnings attributable to Century Casinos, Inc. shareholders for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023.

The Company accounted for the transaction as a business combination, and accordingly, the acquired assets of $260.7 million (including $6.8 million in cash) and liabilities of $194.6 million were included in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet at April 3, 2023. The Nugget Acquisition generated $36.5 million of tax deductible goodwill for the Company’s United States segment. The goodwill from the Nugget Acquisition is attributable to the business expansion opportunity for the Company.

The fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed (excluding cash received) was determined to be $59.3 million as of the acquisition date. The fair values of the acquired tangible and intangible assets were determined using variations of the income, market and cost approaches, including the following methods which the Company considered appropriate:

•multi-period excess earnings method;

•cost method;

•capitalized cash flow method;

•relief from royalty method;

•discounted cash flow method; and

•direct market value approach.

Both the income and market approach valuation methodologies used for the identifiable net assets acquired in the Nugget Acquisition make use of Level 3 inputs and are provisional pending development of a final valuation.

Trade receivables and payables, inventory and other current and noncurrent assets and liabilities were valued at the existing carrying values as they represented a reasonable approximation of the fair value of those items at the Nugget Acquisition date, based on management’s judgment and estimates.

The personal property components of the fixed assets were primarily valued utilizing the market and cost approaches. Certain personal property with an active and identifiable secondary market value were valued using the market approach. This property included, but was not limited to, certain gaming/slot equipment, information and technology equipment and vehicles. The cost approach was utilized to value all other personal property. The cost approach estimates fair value as the current cost of replacing or reproducing the utility of an asset, or group of assets and adjusting it for any depreciation resulting from one or more of the following: physical deterioration, functional obsolescence, and/or economic obsolescence.

The real estate assets that are owned by Smooth Bourbon were adjusted to fair value concurrently with the Nugget Acquisition. The fair value was determined utilizing the direct capitalization method of the income approach. The fair value of the acquired real estate assets was determined to be $184.7 million. The income approach incorporates all tangible and intangible property and served as a ceiling for the fair values of the acquired assets of the ongoing business enterprise, while still taking into account the premise of highest and best use.

The fair value of the customer relationships from the player’s club list was valued using the incremental cash flow method under the income approach. The incremental cash flow method is used to estimate the fair value of an intangible asset based on a residual cash flow notion. This method measures the benefits (e.g., cash flows) derived from ownership of an acquired intangible asset as if it were in place, as compared to the acquirer’s expected cash flows as if the intangible asset were not in place (i.e., with-and-without). The present value difference in the two cash flow streams is ascribable to the intangible asset. The Company has assigned a 10 year useful life to the player loyalty program based on estimated revenue attrition among the player’s club members, based historical operations as estimated by management.

The fair value of the Nugget trademark was valued using the relief from royalty method. The relief from royalty method presumes that, without ownership of the asset, the Company would have to make a stream of payments to a brand or franchise owner in return for the right to use their name. By virtue of this asset, the Company avoids any such payments and records the related intangible value of the trademark. The primary assumptions in the valuation included projected revenue, a pre-tax royalty rate, the trademark’s useful life, and tax expense. The Company has assigned the Nugget trademark a 10 year useful life after considering, among other things, the expected use of the asset, the expected useful life of other related assets or asset groups, any legal, regulatory, or contractual provisions that may limit the useful life, the effects of obsolescence, demand and other economic factors, and the maintenance expenditures required to promote and support the trademark.

Details of the Nugget Acquisition in the table below are based on estimated fair values of assets and liabilities as of April 3, 2023. The Nugget Acquisition was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting. Assets acquired and liabilities assumed in connection with the Nugget Acquisition have been recorded at their preliminary fair values. Certain estimated values for the Nugget Acquisition for accrued liabilities, property and equipment, intangible assets, and deferred income taxes are not yet finalized pending the final purchase price allocations and the receipt of additional information from the Nugget. As a result, the Company’s estimates and assumptions are subject to change within the measurement period as valuations are finalized. The Company expects to finalize the allocation of the purchase price within one year of the Nugget Acquisition.

4.GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Goodwill represents the future economic benefits of a business combination to the extent that the purchase price exceeds the fair value of the net identified tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The Company determines the estimated fair value of the net identified tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed after review and consideration of relevant information including discounted cash flows, quoted market prices, and estimates made by management.

15

The Company tests goodwill for impairment as of October 1 each year, or more frequently as circumstances indicate it is necessary. Testing compares the estimated fair values of our reporting units to the reporting units’ carrying values. The reportable segments with goodwill balances as of June 30, 2023 included the United States, Canada and Poland. For the quantitative goodwill impairment test, the current fair value of each reporting unit with goodwill balances is estimated using a combination of (i) the income approach using the discounted cash flow method for projected revenue, EBITDA and working capital, (ii) the market approach observing the price at which comparable companies or shares of comparable companies are bought or sold, and (iii) fair value measurements using either quoted market price or an estimate of fair value using a present value technique. The cost approach, estimating the cost of reproduction or replacement of an asset, was considered but not used because it does not adequately capture an operating company’s intangible value. If the carrying value of a reporting unit exceeds its estimated fair value, the Company will recognize an impairment for the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value. The impairment analysis requires management to make estimates about future operating results, valuation multiples and discount rates and assumptions based on historical data and consideration of future market conditions. Changes in the assumptions can materially affect these estimates. Given the uncertainty inherent in any projection, heightened by the possibility of additional effects of COVID-19, actual results may differ from the estimates and assumptions used, or conditions may change, which could result in additional impairment charges in the future. Such impairments could be material.

The Company tests its indefinite-lived intangible assets as of October 1 each year, or more frequently as circumstances indicate it is necessary. The fair value is determined primarily using the multi-period excess earnings methodology and the relief from royalty method under the income approach.

Trademarks

The Company currently owns four trademarks, the Century Casinos trademark, the Mountaineer trademark, the Nugget trademark and the Casinos Poland trademark, which are reported as intangible assets on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Trademarks: Finite-Lived

The Company has determined that the Mountaineer trademark and the Nugget trademark, both reported in the United States segment, have useful lives of ten years after considering, among other things, the expected use of the asset, the expected useful life of other related assets or asset groups, any legal, regulatory, or contractual provisions that may limit the useful life, the effects of obsolescence, demand and other economic factors, and the maintenance expenditures required to promote and support the trademark. As such, the trademarks will be amortized over their useful lives. Costs incurred to renew trademarks that are finite-lived are expensed over the renewal period to general and administrative expenses on the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of (loss) earnings. Changes in the carrying amount of the United States trademarks are as follows:

Amounts in thousands |  |  | Balance at ‎January 1, 2023 |  |  | Acquisition |  |  | Amortization |  |  | Balance at ‎June 30, 2023

The weighted-average amortization period of the United States trademarks is 8.1 years.

Trademarks: Indefinite-Lived

The Company has determined that the Casinos Poland trademark, reported in the Poland segment, and the Century Casinos trademark, reported in the Corporate and Other segment, have indefinite useful lives and therefore the Company does not amortize these trademarks. Costs incurred to renew trademarks that are indefinite-lived are expensed over the renewal period as general and administrative expenses on the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of (loss) earnings. Changes in the carrying amount of the indefinite-lived trademarks are as follows:

Thereafter |  |  | 39
|  | $ | 739

These estimates do not reflect the impact of future foreign exchange rate changes or the continuation of the licenses following their expiration. The weighted average period before the next license expiration is 1.4 years. In Poland, gaming licenses are not renewable. Once a gaming license has expired, any gaming company can apply for the license.

Casino Licenses: Indefinite-Lived

The Company has determined that the casino licenses held in the United States segment from the Missouri Gaming Commission, the West Virginia Lottery Commission and the Nevada Gaming Commission (held by Smooth Bourbon) and those held in the Canada segment from the Alberta Gaming, Liquor and Cannabis Commission and Horse Racing Alberta are indefinite-lived.

Goldman Credit Agreement

On April 1, 2022, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement (the “Goldman Credit Agreement”) by and among the Company, as borrower, the subsidiary guarantors party thereto, Goldman Sachs Bank USA, as administrative agent and collateral agent, Goldman Sachs Bank USA and BOFA Securities, Inc., as joint lead arrangers and joint bookrunners, and the Lenders and L/C Lenders party thereto. The Goldman Credit Agreement replaced the Macquarie Credit Agreement discussed below. The Goldman Credit Agreement provides for a $350.0 million term loan (the “Term Loan”) and a $30.0 million revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Facility”). As of June 30, 2023, the outstanding balance of the Term Loan was $345.6 million and the Company had $30.0 million available to borrow on the Revolving Facility. The Company used the Goldman Credit Agreement to fund the Nugget Acquisition (including the Acquisition Escrow), for the repayment of approximately $166.2 million outstanding under the Macquarie Credit Agreement and for related fees and expenses. Subsequent to the end of the 2023 second quarter, the Company borrowed $30.0 million from the Revolving Facility on July 20, 2023 to fund the Rocky Gap Acquisition. See Note 15 for more information.

The Term Loan matures on April 1, 2029, and the Revolving Facility matures on April 1, 2027. The Revolving Facility includes up to $10.0 million available for the issuance of letters of credit. The Term Loan requires scheduled quarterly payments of $875,000 equal to 0.25% of the original aggregate principal amount of the Term Loan, with the balance due at maturity.

Borrowings under the Goldman Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate equal to, at the Company’s option, either (a) the Adjusted Term SOFR (as defined in the Goldman Credit Agreement), plus an applicable margin (each loan, being a “SOFR Loan”) or (b) the ABR (as defined in the Goldman Credit Agreement), plus an applicable margin (each loan, being a “ABR Loan”). The applicable margin for the Term Loan is 6.00% per annum with respect to SOFR Loans and 5.00% per annum with respect to ABR Loans. The applicable margin for loans under the Revolving Facility (“Revolving Loans”) is (1) so long as the Consolidated First Lien Net Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Goldman Credit Agreement) of the Company is greater than 2.75 to 1.00, the applicable margin for Revolving Loans that are SOFR Loans will be 5.25% per annum, and for Revolving Loans that are ABR Loans will be 4.25% per annum; (2) so long as the Consolidated First Lien Net Leverage Ratio of the Company is less than or equal to 2.75 to 1.00 but greater than 2.25 to 1.00, the applicable margin for Revolving Loans that are SOFR Loans will be 5.00% per annum, and for Revolving Loans that are ABR Loans will be 4.00% per annum; and (3) so long as the Consolidated First Lien Net Leverage Ratio of the Company is less than or equal to 2.25 to 1.00, the applicable margin for Revolving Loans that are SOFR Loans will be 4.75% per annum, and for Revolving Loans that are ABR Loans will be 3.75% per annum.

In addition, on a quarterly basis, the Company is required to pay each lender under the Revolving Facility a commitment fee in respect of any unused commitments under the Revolving Facility at a per annum rate of 0.50% of the principal amount of unused commitments of such lender, subject to a stepdown to 0.375% based upon the Company’s Consolidated First Lien Net Leverage Ratio. The Company is also required to pay letter of credit fees equal to the applicable margin then in effect for SOFR Loans that are Revolving Loans multiplied by the average daily maximum aggregate amount available to be drawn under all letters of credit, plus such letter of credit issuer’s customary documentary and processing fees and charges and a fronting fee in an amount equal to 0.125% of the face amount of such letter of credit. The Company is also required to pay customary agency fees. Fees related to the Goldman Credit Agreement of less than $0.1 million and $0.1 million were recorded as interest expense in the consolidated statements of (loss) earnings for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively.

The Goldman Credit Agreement requires the Company to prepay the Term Loan, subject to certain exceptions, with:

• 100% of the net cash proceeds of certain non-ordinary course asset sales or certain casualty events, subject to certain exceptions; and

• 50% of the Company’s annual Excess Cash Flow (as defined in the Goldman Credit Agreement) (which percentage will be reduced to 25% if the Consolidated First Lien Net Leverage Ratio is greater than 2.25 to 1.00 but less than or equal to 2.75 to 1.00, and to 0% if the Consolidated First Lien Net Leverage Ratio is less than or equal to 2.25 to 1.00).

The Goldman Credit Agreement provides that the Term Loan may be prepaid without a premium or penalties.

The borrowings under the Goldman Credit Agreement are guaranteed by the material subsidiaries of the Company, subject to certain exceptions (including the exclusion of the Company’s non-domestic subsidiaries), and are secured by a pledge (and, with respect to real property, mortgage) of substantially all of the existing and future property and assets of the Company and the guarantors, subject to certain exceptions.

The Goldman Credit Agreement contains customary representations and warranties, affirmative, negative and financial covenants, and events of default. All future borrowings under the Goldman Credit Agreement are subject to the satisfaction of customary conditions, including the absence of a default and the accuracy of representations and warranties. The Company was in compliance with all applicable financial covenants under the Goldman Credit Agreement as of June 30, 2023.

Deferred financing costs consist of the Company’s costs related to financings. Amortization expenses relating to the Goldman Credit Agreement were $0.7 million and $1.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, and $0.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022. These costs are included in interest expense in the condensed consolidated statement of (loss) earnings for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022.

Credit Agreement – Macquarie Capital

In December 2019, the Company entered into a $180.0 million credit agreement with Macquarie Capital Funding LLC, as swingline lender, administrative agent and collateral agent, Macquarie Capital (USA) Inc., as sole lead arranger and sole bookrunner, and the Lenders and L/C Lenders party thereto (the “Macquarie Credit Agreement”). The Macquarie Credit Agreement replaced the Company’s credit agreement with the Bank of Montreal (the “BMO Credit Agreement”). The Macquarie Credit Agreement provided for a $170.0 million term loan (the “Macquarie Term Loan”) and a $10.0 million Revolving Facility (the “Macquarie Revolving Facility”). The Company used proceeds from the Macquarie Term Loan to fund the acquisition of MTR, CCG and CCV (the “2019 Acquired Casinos”), for the repayment of approximately $52.0 million outstanding under the BMO Credit Agreement and for general working capital and corporate purposes. In connection with the Goldman Credit Agreement, the Macquarie Term Loan was repaid on April 1, 2022 and the Macquarie Credit Agreement was terminated.

Commitment fees related to the Macquarie Revolving Facility of less than $0.1 million were recorded as interest expense in the condensed consolidated statements of (loss) earnings for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The Company amortized $0.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 relating to Macquarie Credit Agreement deferred financing costs. These costs are included in interest expense in the condensed consolidated statements of (loss) earnings for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The Company wrote off approximately $7.3 million of deferred financing costs to interest expense in the second quarter of 2022 in connection with the prepayment of the Macquarie Term Loan.

Casinos Poland

CPL previously had a PLN 2.5 million term loan with mBank S.A. (“mBank”), which was paid in full in September 2022. The term loan bore an interest rate of 1-month WIBOR plus 1.90%. CPL’s PLN 10.0 million short-term line of credit was amended in April 2022, and the PLN 2.5 million that was available for cash borrowing was removed from the line of credit. The short term line of credit was terminated in October 2022.

As of June 30, 2023, CPL had a short-term line of credit with mBank used to finance current operations. The line of credit has a borrowing capacity of PLN 5.0 million bearing an interest rate of overnight WIBOR plus 2.00%. As of June 30, 2023, the credit facility had no outstanding balance and PLN 5.0 million ($1.2 million based on the exchange rate in effect on June 30, 2023) was available for additional borrowing. The credit agreement is secured by a building owned by CPL in Warsaw. The credit facility contains a number of covenants applicable to CPL, including covenants that require CPL to maintain certain liquidity and liability to asset ratios. The line of credit was amended in May 2023 to extend the line of credit maturity through June 4, 2024.

CPL maintained PLN 0.9 million ($0.2 million based on the exchange rate in effect on June 30, 2023) in deposits for this purpose as of June 30, 2023. These deposits are included in deposits and other on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Century Resorts Management

As of June 30, 2023, CRM had two credit agreements with UniCredit (the “UniCredit Term Loans”).

The first credit agreement (“UniCredit Term Loan 1”) is a GBP 2.0 million term loan used for construction and fitting out of Century Casino Bath, a casino in Bath, England that the Company closed in March 2020. In November 2021, the Company amended the UniCredit Term Loan 1 to convert it into a USD term loan beginning December 31, 2021. The term loan matures September 30, 2023 and bears interest at LIBOR plus 1.625%. If LIBOR is not available, the interest rate will be determined based on a quoted rate from leading banks in the London interbank market. As of June 30, 2023, the amount outstanding on UniCredit Term Loan 1 was $0.1 million. CRM has no further borrowing availability under the loan agreement. The loan is unsecured and has no financial covenants.

The second credit agreement (“UniCredit Term Loan 2”) is a EUR 6.0 million term loan converted from a $7.4 million line of credit in June 2021, originally entered into by CRM in August 2018 for acquisitions and capital expenditures at the Company’s existing operations or new operations. The term loan matures on December 31, 2025 and bears interest at a rate of 2.875%. As of June 30, 2023, the amount outstanding was EUR 3.3 million ($3.6 million based on the exchange rate in effect on June 30, 2023) and the Company had no further borrowings available. UniCredit Term Loan 2 is secured by a EUR 6.0 million guarantee by the Company and has no financial covenants.

Century Downs Racetrack and Casino

CDR’s land lease is a financing obligation of the Company. Prior to the Company’s acquisition of its ownership interest in CDR, CDR sold a portion of the land on which the REC project is located and then entered into an agreement to lease back a portion of the land sold. The Company accounts for the lease using the financing method by accounting for the land subject to lease as an asset and the lease payments as interest on the financing obligation. Under the land lease, CDR has four options to purchase the land. In March 2023, the Company amended the land lease to extend the first option date from July 1, 2023 to September 1, 2023. The land will be purchased as part of the Canada Real Estate Sale, which is expected to close in the third quarter of 2023. Due to the nature of the CDR land lease financing obligation, there are no principal payments due until the Company exercises its option to purchase the land. Lease payments are applied to interest only, and any change in the outstanding balance of the financing obligation relates to foreign currency translation. As of June 30, 2023, the outstanding balance on the financing obligation was CAD 19.5 million ($14.7 million based on the exchange rate in effect on June 30, 2023).

As of June 30, 2023, scheduled repayments related to long-term debt were as follows:

6.LONG-TERM FINANCING OBLIGATION

On December 6, 2019, certain subsidiaries of the Company (collectively, the “Tenant”) and certain subsidiaries of VICI PropCo (collectively, the “Landlord”) entered into the sale and leaseback transaction for the 2019 Acquired Casino properties and entered into the Master Lease to lease the real estate assets of the 2019 Acquired Casinos. The Master Lease does not transfer control of the 2019 Acquired Casino properties to VICI PropCo subsidiaries. On December 1, 2022, the Master Lease was amended (the “Master Lease Amendment”) to provide for (i) modifications with respect to certain project work to be done by the Company related to Century Casinos Caruthersville, (ii) modifications to rent under the Master Lease and (iii) other related modifications.

The Company accounts for the transaction as a failed sale-leaseback financing obligation. When cash proceeds are exchanged, a failed sale-leaseback financing obligation is equal to the proceeds received for the assets that are sold and then leased back. The value of the failed sale-leaseback financing obligations recognized in this transaction was determined to be the fair value of the leased real estate assets. In subsequent periods, a portion of the periodic payment under the Master Lease will be recognized as interest expense with the remainder of the payment reducing the failed sale-leaseback financing obligation using the effective interest method. The failed sale-leaseback obligations will not be reduced to less than the net book value of the leased real estate assets as of the end of the lease term, which is estimated to be $28.5 million.

The fair values of the real estate assets and the related failed sale-leaseback financing obligation were estimated based on the present value of the estimated future payments over the term plus renewal options of 35 years, using an imputed discount rate of approximately 10.1%. The value of the failed sale-leaseback financing obligation is dependent upon assumptions regarding the amount of the payments and the estimated discount rate of the payments required by a market participant.

The Master Lease provides for the lease of land, buildings, structures and other improvements on the land, easements and similar appurtenances to the land and improvements relating to the operations of the leased properties. The Master Lease has an initial term of 15 years with no purchase option (which term will be extended for 15 years from the date of the Master Lease amendment). At the Company’s option, the Master Lease may be extended for up to four five year renewal terms beyond the initial 15 year term. The Company exercised one five year renewal option when the Master Lease was amended on December 1, 2022. The renewal terms are effective as to all, but not less than all, of the property then subject to the Master Lease. The Company does not have the ability to terminate its obligations under the Master Lease prior to its expiration without the Landlord’s consent.

The Master Lease has a triple-net structure, which requires the Tenant to pay substantially all costs associated with the Company’s Missouri and West Virginia properties, including real estate taxes, insurance, utilities, maintenance and operating costs. The Master Lease contains certain covenants, including minimum capital improvement expenditures. The Company has provided a guarantee of the Tenant’s obligations under the Master Lease.

The rent payable under the Master Lease, as amended by the Master Lease Amendment on December 1, 2022, is:

An initial annual rent (the “Rent”) of approximately $25.0 million.

The Rent will escalate at a rate of 1.01% for the 2 nd and 3 rd years and the greater of either 1.0125% (the “Base Rent Escalator”) or the increase in the Consumer Price Index (“CPI”) for each year starting in the 4 th year. In addition, Rent will increase by approximately $4.2 million on the “CapEx Project Incremental Rent Increase Date” (as defined in the Master Lease Amendment).

The Base Rent Escalator is subject to adjustment from and after the 6 th year if the Minimum Rent Coverage Ratio (as defined in the Master Lease) is not satisfied.

‎

22

The estimated future payments in the table below include payments and adjustments to reflect estimated payments as described in the Master Lease, including an annual escalator of up to 1.0125%. The estimated future payments are not adjusted for increases based on the CPI.

Rent adjusted for CPI for the year ended December 31, 2023 is estimated to be $27.5 million, excluding the increased rent due to the Rocky Gap Acquisition and the Canada Real Estate Sale discussed below.

As discussed in Note 1, VICI PropCo Buyer purchased a related interest in the land and building associated with Rocky Gap on July 25, 2023 for approximately $203.9 million. In connection with the Rocky Gap Acquisition, the Company and a subsidiary of VICI PropCo entered into an amendment to the Master Lease on July 25, 2023 that (i) added Rocky Gap to the Master Lease, (ii) provided for an increase in initial annualized rent of approximately $15.5 million and (iii) extended the initial Master Lease term for 15 years from the date of the amendment (subject to the existing four five year renewal options).

As discussed in Note 1, pursuant to the Canada Real Estate Sale, VICI PropCo agreed to acquire the real estate assets for the Century Canadian Portfolio for approximately CAD 221.7 million ($167.3 million based on the exchange rate on June 30, 2023). In connection with the closing of this transaction, which is expected in the third quarter of 2023, the Company and a subsidiary of VICI PropCo will enter into an amendment to the Master Lease to (i) add the Century Canadian Portfolio to the Master Lease, (ii) provide for an increase in initial annualized rent of approximately CAD 17.3 million ($13.1 million based on the exchange rate on June 30, 2023) and (iii) extend the initial Master Lease term for 15-years from the date of the amendment (subject to the existing four five year renewal options).

7.COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Litigation – From time to time, the Company is subject to various legal proceedings arising from normal business operations. Based on management’s knowledge, the Company does not expect the outcome of such currently pending or threatened proceedings, either individually or in the aggregate, to have a material effect on its financial position, cash flows or results of operations.

8.INCOME TAXES

Income tax expense or benefits are recorded relative to the jurisdictions that recognize book earnings. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company recognized income tax expense of $1.7 million on pre-tax earnings of $5.1 million, representing an effective income tax rate of 33.6% compared to income tax benefit of ($9.0) million on pre-tax earnings of $3.6 million, representing an effective income tax rate of (251.4%) for the same period in 2022.

‎

23

For the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company computed an annual effective tax rate using forecasted information. Based on current forecasts, the Company’s effective tax rate is expected to be highly sensitive to changes in earnings. The Company concluded that computing its effective tax rate using forecasted information would be appropriate in estimating tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2023.

A number of items caused the effective income tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2023 to differ from the US federal statutory income tax rate of 21%, including taxation of global intangible low-tax income (GILTI) in the United States, a 23% statutory tax rate in Canada, certain nondeductible business expenses in Poland, various exchange rate benefits, and income attributable to the non-controlling interest holder of Smooth Bourbon, which is taxed as a partnership for US federal income tax purposes. As of June 30, 2023, the Company continues to maintain a full valuation allowance on deferred tax assets for CMR, CRM and Century Resorts International Ltd.

Additionally, the Company has unrecognized income tax benefits of $0.5 million due to the Company’s ability to utilize pre-acquisition net operating losses. The Company received notification of an examination by Canada Revenue Agency, and it will assess the ability to recognize the $0.5 million in income tax benefits upon completion of the examination. The Company believes that the examination will not conclude until 2024.

9.EARNINGS PER SHARE

The calculation of basic earnings per share considers only weighted average outstanding common shares in the computation. The calculation of diluted earnings per share gives effect to all potentially dilutive stock options. The calculation of diluted earnings per share is based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, plus, if dilutive, the assumed exercise of stock options using the treasury stock method. Weighted average shares outstanding for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 were as follows:

|  | For the three months |  | For the six months
|  | ended June 30, |  | ended June 30,
Amounts in thousands |  | 2023 |  | 2022 |  | 2023 |  | 2022

10. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS AND DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS REPORTING

Fair Value Measurements

The Company follows fair value measurement authoritative accounting guidance for all assets and liabilities measured at fair value. That authoritative accounting guidance defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Market or observable inputs are the preferred sources of values, followed by assumptions based on hypothetical transactions in the absence of market inputs. The fair value hierarchy for grouping these assets and liabilities is based on the significance level of the following inputs:

Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

Level 2 – quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-derived valuations whose inputs are observable or whose significant value drivers are observable

Level 3 – significant inputs to the valuation model are unobservable

24

A financial instrument’s categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability. The Company reflects transfers between the three levels at the beginning of the reporting period in which the availability of observable inputs no longer justifies classification in the original level. There were no transfers between the three levels for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022.

Non-Recurring Fair Value Measurements

The Company applies the provisions of the fair value measurement standard to its non-recurring, non-financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value. The Company applied the acquisition method of accounting for the Nugget Acquisition. Identifiable assets and liabilities assumed were recognized and measured at fair value as of the acquisition date. The valuation of intangible assets was determined using an income approach methodology. The Company’s key assumptions include projected future revenues, customer attrition rates and discount rates. See Note 3 for more information about the Nugget Acquisition and accounting for the Nugget Acquisition. There were no assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis as of June 30, 2022.

Long-Term Debt – The carrying value of the Goldman Credit Agreement, the UniCredit Term Loans and CPL’s short-term line of credit approximate fair value based on the variable interest paid on the obligations. The carrying value of the UniCredit Term Loan 2 approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of the agreement. The estimated fair values of the outstanding balances under the Goldman Credit Agreement and UniCredit Term Loan 1 are designated as Level 2 measurements in the fair value hierarchy based on quoted prices in active markets for similar liabilities. The carrying values of the Company’s finance lease obligations approximate fair value based on the similar terms and conditions currently available to the Company in the marketplace for similar financings.

Other Estimated Fair Value Measurements – The estimated fair value of the Company’s other assets and liabilities, such as cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable, have been determined to approximate carrying value based on the short-term nature of those financial instruments. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had no cash equivalents.

For contracts that are not settled, a contract liability is created. The expected duration of the performance obligation is less than one year.

The amount of revenue recognized that was included in the opening contract liability balance was $1.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, and $1.1 million and $1.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively. This revenue consists primarily of the Company’s deferred gaming revenue from player points earned through play at the Company’s casinos located in the United States. Activity in the Company’s receivables and contract liabilities is presented in the tables below.

Receivables are included in accounts receivable and contract liabilities are included in accrued liabilities on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Substantially all of the Company’s contracts and contract liabilities have an original duration of one year or less. The Company applies the practical expedient for such contracts and does not consider the effects of the time value of money. Further, because of the short duration of these contracts, the Company has not disclosed the transaction price for the remaining performance obligations as of the end of each reporting period or when the Company expects to recognize this revenue.

12.LEASES

The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. The right-of-use (“ROU”) assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term, and lease liabilities represent the obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at the commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. The Company uses its incremental borrowing rate in each of the jurisdictions in which its subsidiaries operate to calculate the present value of lease payments. Lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease. These options are included in the lease term when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise those options. Operating lease expense is recorded on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

The Company accounts for lease agreements with lease and non-lease components as a single lease component for all asset classes. The Company does not establish ROU assets or lease liabilities for operating leases with terms of 12 months or less.

The Company’s operating and finance leases include land, casino space, corporate offices, and gaming and other equipment. The leases have remaining lease terms of one month to 14 years.

13.SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Company reports its financial performance in three reportable segments based on the geographical locations in which its casinos operate: the United States, Canada and Poland. After the Nugget Acquisition, the Company evaluated its operating segments and concluded that as a result of the growth in the United States it would begin viewing its operating segments as East, Midwest and West. The Company views each casino or other operation within its operating segments as a reporting unit. Operating segments are aggregated within reportable segments based on their similar economic characteristics, types of customers, types of services and products provided, the regulatory environments in which they operate, and their management and reporting structure. The Company’s operations related to certain other corporate and management operations have not been identified as separate reportable segments; therefore, these operations are included in Corporate and Other in the following segment disclosures to reconcile to consolidated results. All intercompany transactions are eliminated in consolidation.

‎

The Company’s chief operating decision maker is a management function comprised of two individuals. These two individuals are the Company’s Co-Chief Executive Officers. The Company’s chief operating decision makers and management utilize Adjusted EBITDA as the primary profit measure for its reportable segments. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-US GAAP measure defined as net earnings (loss) attributable to Century Casinos, Inc. shareholders before interest expense (income), net, income taxes (benefit), depreciation, amortization, non-controlling interest earnings (loss) and transactions, pre-opening expenses, acquisition costs, non-cash stock-based compensation charges, asset impairment costs, loss (gain) on disposition of fixed assets, discontinued operations, (gain) loss on foreign currency transactions, cost recovery income and other, gain on business combination and certain other one-time transactions. Expense related to the Master Lease is included in the interest expense (income), net line item. Intercompany transactions consisting primarily of management and royalty fees and interest, along with their related tax effects, are excluded from the presentation of net earnings (loss) attributable to Century Casinos, Inc. shareholders and Adjusted EBITDA reported for each segment. Non-cash stock-based compensation expense is presented under Corporate and Other in the tables below as the expense is not allocated to reportable segments when reviewed by the Company’s chief operating decision makers. Not all of the aforementioned items occur in each reporting period, but have been included in the definition based on historical activity. These adjustments have no effect on the consolidated results as reported under US GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA is not considered a measure of performance recognized under US GAAP.

EXECUTIVE OVERVIEW

Overview

Since our inception in 1992, we have been primarily engaged in developing and operating gaming establishments and related lodging, restaurant and entertainment facilities. Our primary source of revenue is from the net proceeds of our gaming machines and tables, with ancillary revenue generated from hotel, restaurant, horse racing (including off-track betting), sports betting, iGaming, bowling and entertainment facilities that are in most instances a part of the casinos.

We view each region in which we operate as a separate operating segment and each casino or other operation within those markets as a reporting unit. We aggregate all operating segments into three reportable segments based on the geographical locations in which our casinos operate: United States, Canada and Poland. We have additional business activities including certain other corporate and management operations that we report as Corporate and Other.

After the Nugget Acquisition in April 2023, we evaluated our operating segments and concluded that as a result of the growth in the United States we would begin viewing our operating segments as East, Midwest and West. The reporting units, except for Century Downs Racetrack and Casino and Casinos Poland, are owned, operated and managed through wholly-owned subsidiaries. Our ownership and operation of Century Downs Racetrack and Casino and Casinos Poland are discussed below. The land on which the REC and racetracks at Century Downs and Century Mile are located is leased.

(1)The real estate assets are owned by VICI PropCo.

(2)We operated Century Sports through February 10, 2022. See Note 1, “Description of Business and Basis of Presentation,” to our condensed consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of this report.

(3)We operated ship-based casinos through April 16, 2023.

(4)Prior to the Nugget Acquisition, our equity investment in Smooth Bourbon was included in the Corporate Other reporting unit.

After selling the casino operations of Century Casino Calgary in August 2020, we continued to own the land and building and to operate Century Sports, a sports bar, bowling and entertainment facility located on the property. In February 2022, we sold the land and building we owned in Calgary, transferred the lease agreement for the casino premises to the buyer and ceased operating Century Sports. Prior to the sale, Century Sports was included in the Canada reportable segment.

We have controlling financial interests through our subsidiary CRM in the following reporting units:

We have a 66.6% ownership interest in CPL and we consolidate CPL as a majority-owned subsidiary for which we have a controlling financial interest. Polish Airports owns the remaining 33.3% of CPL. We account for and report the 33.3% Polish Airports ownership interest as a non-controlling financial interest. CPL has been in operation since 1989. As of June 30, 2023, CPL owned and operated eight casinos throughout Poland. The following table summarizes information about CPL’s casinos as of June 30, 2023.

City | Location | License Expiration | Number of Slots | Number of Tables
Warsaw | Marriott Hotel | September 2028 | 70 | 37
Warsaw | Hilton Hotel | July 2024 | 69 | 24
Warsaw | LIM Center | June 2025 | 67 | 4
Bielsko-Biala | Hotel President | October 2023 | 50 | 5
Katowice | Park Inn by Radisson | October 2023 | 70 | 14

Krakow | Dwor Kosciuszko Hotel | May 2024 | 70 | 5
Lodz | Manufaktura Entertainment Complex | June 2024 | 70 | 10

In September 2022, CPL transferred the casino license for the Warsaw Marriott Hotel expiring in July 2024 to the Warsaw Hilton Hotel, and CPL was granted a new license for the Warsaw Marriott Hotel expiring in September 2028. Casino licenses are granted for six years. When a casino license expires, the Polish Minister of Finance notifies the public of its availability, and interested parties can submit an application for the casino license. Following approval of a casino license by the Minister of Finance, there is a period in which applicants can appeal the decision.

We have a 75% ownership interest in CDR, and we consolidate CDR as a majority-owned subsidiary for which we have a controlling financial interest. We account for and report the remaining 25% ownership interest in CDR as a non-controlling financial interest. CDR operates Century Downs Racetrack and Casino, a REC in Balzac, a north metropolitan area of Calgary, Alberta, Canada. CDR is the only horse racetrack in the Calgary area and is located less than one-mile north of the city limits of Calgary and 4.5 miles from the Calgary International Airport.

34

Through our wholly owned subsidiary Century Nevada Acquisition, Inc., we have a 50% equity interest in Smooth Bourbon. Prior to the Nugget Acquisition, we reported this interest as an equity investment in the Corporate Other reportable segment. On April 3, 2023, as a result of closing the Nugget Acquisition, we began consolidating Smooth Bourbon as a subsidiary for which we have a controlling financial interest. The remaining 50% of Smooth Bourbon is owned by Marnell and is reported as a non-controlling financial interest.

We had a concession agreement for one ship-based casino through April 16, 2023. See “Corporate and Other” below.

Recent Developments Related to COVID-19

Since the inception of the COVID-19 pandemic in March 2020, our casinos varied their operations based on the governmental health and safety requirements in the jurisdictions in which they are located. The COVID-19 pandemic impacted our results of operations in 2020 and the first half of 2021, and into the first quarter of 2022 for our Canada properties. Currently, our operations have no health and safety requirements for entry and few other COVID-19 related restrictions. The duration and impact of the COVID-19 pandemic remains uncertain. We cannot predict the negative impacts that COVID-19 will have on our consumer demand, workforce, suppliers, contractors and other partners and whether future closures will be required. Such closures have had a material impact on us. The effects of COVID-19, ongoing governmental health and safety requirements and any future closures could have a material impact on us. We will continue to monitor our liquidity and make reductions to marketing and operating expenditures, where possible, if future government mandates or closures are required that would have an adverse impact on us.

Other Projects and Developments

Nugget Casino Resort in Sparks, Nevada

In February 2022, we entered into a definitive agreement with Marnell, pursuant to which we, through a newly formed subsidiary, agreed to purchase from Marnell (i) 50% of the membership interests in Smooth Bourbon, and (ii) 100% of the membership interests in Nugget. Nugget owns and operates the Nugget Casino Resort in Sparks, Nevada, and Smooth Bourbon owns the real property on which the casino is located.

We purchased 50% of the membership interests in Smooth Bourbon for approximately $95.0 million at the First Closing on April 1, 2022. We used approximately $29.3 million of cash on hand and borrowings under the Goldman Credit Agreement in connection with the First Closing. We purchased 100% of the membership interests in Nugget for approximately $104.7 million (subject to certain adjustments) at the Second Closing on April 3, 2023. Following the Second Closing, we own the Nugget Casino Resort and 50% of the membership interests in Smooth Bourbon. We also have a five-year option through April 1, 2027 to acquire the remaining 50% of the membership interests in Smooth Bourbon for $105.0 million plus 2% per annum. At the First Closing, Smooth Bourbon entered into a lease with Nugget for an annual rent of $15.0 million.

Rocky Gap Casino Resort in Flintstone, Maryland

In August 2022, we entered into a definitive agreement with Golden, Lakes Maryland, a subsidiary of Golden, and VICI PropCo, pursuant to which we agreed to acquire the operations of Rocky Gap for approximately $56.1 million subject to the conditions and terms set forth therein. Pursuant to a real estate purchase agreement, dated August 24, 2022, by and between Evitts and VICI PropCo Buyer, VICI PropCo Buyer agreed to acquire a related interest in the land and building associated with Rocky Gap for approximately $203.9 million, subject to the conditions and terms set forth therein.

On July 25, 2023, we completed the Rocky Gap Acquisition. In connection with the closing of this transaction, one of our subsidiaries and a subsidiary of VICI PropCo entered into an amendment to the Master Lease that (i) added Rocky Gap to the Master Lease, (ii) provided for an increase in initial annualized rent of approximately $15.5 million, and (iii) extended the initial Master Lease term for 15 years from the date of the amendment (subject to the existing four five-year renewal options).

Canadian Real Estate Sale

On May 16, 2023, we entered into definitive agreements for subsidiaries of VICI to acquire the real estate assets of the Century Canadian Portfolio for an aggregate purchase price of CAD 221.7 million ($167.3 million based on the exchange rate on June 30, 2023) in cash. Simultaneous with the closing of the transaction, the Century Canadian Portfolio will be added to our existing Master Lease and annual rent will increase by CAD 17.3 million ($13.1 million based on the exchange rate on June 30, 2023). Additionally, the term of the Master Lease will be extended such that, upon closing of the transaction, the lease will have a full 15-year initial base lease term, with four 5-year renewal options. The transaction is subject to customary regulatory approvals and closing conditions and is expected to close in the second half of 2023.

Recent Developments Related to Century Casino Caruthersville

The Caruthersville casino had been operating on a riverboat and barge since 1994. On October 13, 2022, the riverboat had to be closed as it was no longer accessible from the barge because of the record low water levels in the Mississippi River. On October 26, 2022, the MGC approved the relocation of the casino at Century Casino Caruthersville from the riverboat and barge to a land-based pavilion until the new land-based casino and hotel are completed (discussed below). The riverboat casino had 519 slot machines and seven table games. From October 2022 to December 2022, Caruthersville operated the casino from the barge with 299 slot machines and four table games. The move to the pavilion, which has 416 slot machines and six table games, was completed in December 2022. The pavilion building will not be affected by water levels, is protected by a flood wall and provides for easier access to the casino for customers than the riverboat. We have not experienced a negative impact on results following the move to the pavilion and have had a positive reaction from customers. The riverboat and barge were removed on February 25, 2023.

Caruthersville Land-Based Casino

We are building a new land-based casino with a small hotel. We estimate the project will cost $51.9 million. Construction started in December 2022 with completion expected in the second half of 2024. We plan to finance the cost of this project with financing provided by VICI PropCo. To finance the Caruthersville project, we entered into an amendment to the Master Lease with VICI PropCo. Following completion, VICI PropCo will own the real estate improvements associated with the Caruthersville project. As of June 30, 2023, we have received $19.8 million from VICI PropCo and have spent $9.9 million of those funds on this project.

Caruthersville Hotel

In July 2021, we announced that we had purchased land and a small two-story hotel near Century Casino Caruthersville with plans to refurbish the existing hotel’s 36 rooms. The completely renovated hotel called The Farmstead opened on October 30, 2022 with a grand opening held in December 2022. The total cost of the project was $3.6 million.

Cape Girardeau Hotel

We are building a hotel at our Cape Girardeau location. The hotel is planned as a six-story building with 68,000 square feet that will be adjacent to and connected with the existing casino building. Construction on this project began in September 2022 and is expected to be completed in the first half of 2024. We estimate the project will cost $30.5 million, and we plan to finance this cost with cash on hand. As of June 30, 2023, we have spent $12.1 million on this project.

Additional Gaming Projects

We currently are exploring additional potential gaming projects and acquisition opportunities. Along with the capital needs of potential projects, there are various other risks which, if they materialize, could affect our ability to complete a proposed project or acquisition or could eliminate its feasibility altogether.

We recognize in our condensed consolidated statements of (loss) earnings foreign currency transaction gains or losses resulting from the translation of casino operations and other transactions that are denominated in a currency other than US dollars. Our casinos in Canada and Poland represent a significant portion of our business, and the revenue generated and expenses incurred by these operations are generally denominated in Canadian dollars and Polish zloty. A decrease in the value of these currencies in relation to the value of the US dollar would decrease the earnings from our foreign operations when translated into US dollars. An increase in the value of these currencies in relation to the value of the US dollar would increase the earnings from our foreign operations when translated into US dollars.

(1)For a discussion of Adjusted EBITDA and reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net earnings attributable to Century Casinos, Inc. shareholders, see “Non-US GAAP Measures – Adjusted EBITDA” below.

Items impacting comparability of the results include the following:

Nugget – We acquired the operations of the Nugget on April 3, 2023. The Nugget is reported in the United States reportable segment and contributed $27.0 million in net operating revenue and $2.8 million in net earnings attributable to Century Casinos, Inc. for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023. The Nugget is in a gaming jurisdiction that is new to us and we incurred additional general and administrative expenses related to the acquisition.

Canada – In February 2022, we sold the land and building that we owned in Calgary for CAD 8.0 million ($6.3 million based on the exchange rate on February 10, 2022). We recorded a loss on the sale of the land and building of CAD 2.7 million ($2.2 million based on the average exchange rate for the month ended February 28, 2022). We have received earn out payments of CAD 0.9 million ($0.7 million based on the exchange rate on June 30, 2023) and CAD 1.7 million ($1.3 million based on the exchange rate of June 30, 2023) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, that are recorded to gain on sale of casino operations in its condensed consolidated statement of (loss) earnings for the sale of the Calgary casino operations.

COVID-19 (Canada) – Through early February 2022 we required customers to provide proof of vaccination, a negative rapid test result or an original medical exemption letter for entry to comply with a government mandate. In accordance with a government mandate, all customers and employees were required to wear masks while indoors through early March 2022. As the spread of COVID-19 slowed and these measures were lifted, we saw increased guest numbers and increased revenues in 2023 as compared to 2022.

37

Inflation and Staffing – We have seen operating expenses, such as payroll wages and benefits, insurance and utilities, maintenance costs and food and beverage costs, increase at our properties but the increases have not been material to date. We have also experienced difficulties attracting and retaining staff at some locations in the US and Canada. As a result, we have had to adjust hours of some food and beverage outlets, the number of table games open and the number of rooms available at some of our hotels. We have been able to make adjustments during non-peak times and have not seen a material impact to our operating results.

Deferred Financing Costs – We wrote-off approximately $7.3 million of deferred financing costs to interest expense in the second quarter of 2022 in connection with the prepayment of the Macquarie Term Loan.

Valuation Allowance – We released a $10.2 million US valuation allowance against deferred tax assets, resulting in an income tax benefit for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022.

Pari-Mutuel

Pari-mutuel revenue includes live racing, export, advanced deposit wagering and off-track betting. Pari-mutuel expenses relates to pari-mutuel revenue and the operation of our racetracks.

Other

Other revenue and other expenses include gift shops, entertainment, bowling and spa. Other revenue also includes revenue from ATM and credit card commissions.

Non-US GAAP Measures – Adjusted EBITDA

We define Adjusted EBITDA as net earnings (loss) attributable to Century Casinos, Inc. shareholders before interest expense (income), net, income taxes (benefit), depreciation, amortization, non-controlling interest earnings (losses) and transactions, pre-opening expenses, acquisition costs, non-cash stock-based compensation charges, asset impairment costs, loss (gain) on disposition of fixed assets, discontinued operations, (gain) loss on foreign currency transactions, cost recovery income and other, gain on business combination and certain other one-time transactions. Expense related to the Master Lease is included in the interest expense (income), net line item. Intercompany transactions consisting primarily of management and royalty fees and interest, along with their related tax effects, are excluded from the presentation of net earnings (loss) attributable to Century Casinos, Inc. shareholders and Adjusted EBITDA reported for each segment. Non-cash stock-based compensation expense is presented under Corporate and Other in the tables below as the expense is not allocated to reportable segments when reviewed by our chief operating decision makers. Not all of the aforementioned items occur in each reporting period, but have been included in the definition based on historical activity. These adjustments have no effect on the consolidated results as reported under US generally accepted accounting principles (“US GAAP”). Adjusted EBITDA is not considered a measure of performance recognized under US GAAP.

Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA is a valuable measure of the relative performance of the Company and its properties. The gaming industry commonly uses Adjusted EBITDA as a method of arriving at the economic value of a casino operation. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate and forecast the operating performance of the Company and its properties as well as to compare results of current periods to prior periods. Management believes that presenting Adjusted EBITDA to investors provides them with information used by management for financial and operational decision-making in order to understand the Company’s operating performance and evaluate the methodology used by management to evaluate and measure such performance. Management believes that using Adjusted EBITDA is a useful way to compare the relative operating performance of separate reportable segments by eliminating the above-mentioned items associated with the varying levels of capital expenditures for infrastructure required to generate revenue, and the often high cost of acquiring existing operations. Our computation of Adjusted EBITDA may be different from, and therefore may not be comparable to, similar measures used by other companies within the gaming industry.

The reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net earnings (loss) attributable to Century Casinos, Inc. shareholders is presented below.

Non-US GAAP Measures – Net Debt

We define Net Debt as total long-term debt (including current portion) plus deferred financing costs minus cash and cash equivalents. Net Debt is not considered a liquidity measure recognized under US GAAP. Management believes that Net Debt is a valuable measure of our overall financial situation. Net Debt provides investors with an indication of our ability to pay off all of our long-term debt if it became due simultaneously. The reconciliation of Net Debt is presented below.

We began consolidating Nugget and Smooth Bourbon in the United States segment on April 3, 2023 following the Second Closing of the Nugget Acquisition.

Sports wagering in Colorado became legal in May 2020. We have partnered with sports betting operators that will conduct sports wagering under each of the three Colorado master licenses for sports wagering held by our Colorado subsidiaries. One of these mobile sports betting apps launched in July 2020, a second launched in August 2021, and the third launched in September 2022. Each agreement with the sports betting operators provides for a share of net gaming revenue and a minimum revenue guarantee each year.

We operate an internet and mobile interactive gaming application in West Virginia with two iGaming partners. The agreements provide for a share of net iGaming revenue.

The Walker’s Bluff Casino in Illinois is expected to open in late 2023. The casino is expected to increase competition for our Missouri casinos, primarily our Cape Girardeau casino, which could have a negative impact on our results of operations in Missouri. Additionally, there are two potential competing casinos that may open in the Central City, Colorado market in 2024. An increase in competitors could lead to a decrease in visitors at our casinos and have a negative impact on our results of operations in Central City.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2023 and 2022

The following discussion highlights results for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022.

East – Net operating revenue decreased due to decreased gaming revenue. We have seen a decrease in gaming revenue, particularly in table games, since sports betting in Ohio began at the beginning of 2023. Operating expenses decreased due to decreased gaming-related expenses offset by increased insurance costs.

Midwest – Net operating revenue decreased due to decreased gaming revenue at all locations. In Missouri, we believe that net operating revenue was negatively impacted by the construction projects at our properties. The decreases were offset by revenue from the third sports betting app in Colorado that launched in September 2022 and hotel revenue from The Farmstead, which opened in October 2022. Operating expenses in the Midwest increased due to increased payroll and marketing costs offset by decreased gaming-related expenses and insurance costs due to terminating operations from the riverboat and barge.

West – As a new operating segment, all increases are due to the acquisition of the Nugget on April 3, 2023.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2023 and 2022

The following discussion highlights results for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022.

East – Net operating revenue decreased due to decreased gaming revenue offset by increased hotel revenue from increased hotel occupancy and room rates. We have seen a decrease in gaming revenue, particularly in table games, since sports betting in Ohio began at the beginning of 2023. Operating expenses increased due to increased insurance costs offset by decreased gaming related expenses.

In February 2022, we sold the land and building we owned in Calgary, transferred the lease agreement for the casino premises to the buyer and ceased operating Century Sports, which impacts comparability of the Calgary operating segment in 2022. We have received earn out payments from the sale of the Calgary casino operations of CAD 0.9 million ($0.7 million based on the exchange rate on June 30, 2023) and CAD 1.7 million ($1.3 million based on the exchange rate of June 30, 2023) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, that are recorded to gain on sale of casino operations in our condensed consolidated statement of (loss) earnings.

In late November 2022, a competing casino was relocated to a new site approximately eight miles south of Century Downs. Competition from this casino has had a negative impact on financial results at this location. In addition, in January 2022, the Alberta Gaming, Liquor and Cannabis Commission (“AGLC”) removed the moratorium on new gaming facilities. While we do not expect new gaming facilities in the markets in which we operate, an increase in competitors could have a negative impact on our results of operations in Alberta.

In February 2023, the AGLC approved a temporary increase from 15% of slot machine net sales retained by casinos to 17% effective from April 1, 2023 through March 31, 2025. The increase in the slot machine net sales retention percentage is expected to have a positive impact on net operating revenue and results of operations at our Canadian properties during this time period.

Effective August 1, 2023, the AGLC extended the operating hours for slot machines by 30 minutes on weekdays and 90 minutes on weekends.

Results in US dollars were impacted by a (5.4%) and a (6.0%) decrease in the average exchange rate between the US dollar and Canadian dollar for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2023 and 2022

The following discussion highlights results for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022. Explanations below are provided based on CAD results.

Revenue increased at all of our Canada locations, with the exception of Century Downs, due to the COVID-19 restrictions lifting. In addition, gaming revenue increased due to the additional 2% slot machine net sales retained starting April 1, 2023. Gaming revenue decreased at Century Downs by (CAD 0.5 million), or (10.2%), ($0.6 million, or 14.8%), due to a competitor opening close to the casino in November 2022. Operating costs and expenses increased due to increased payroll and marketing costs and cost of goods sold offset by an earn out payment of CAD 0.9 million ($0.7 million based on the exchange rate of June 30, 2023) in June 2023 related to our 2020 sale of the Calgary casino operations.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2023 and 2022

The following discussion highlights results for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022. Explanations below are provided based on CAD results.

Through early February 2022 we required customers to provide proof of vaccination, a negative rapid test result or an original medical exemption letter for entry to comply with a government mandate. In accordance with a government mandate, all customers and employees were required to wear masks while indoors through early March 2022.

Revenue increased at all of our Canada locations, with the exception of Century Downs, due to the COVID-19 restrictions lifting. In addition, gaming revenue increased due to the additional 2% slot machine net sales retained starting April 1, 2023. Gaming revenue decreased at Century Downs by (CAD 0.8 million), or (8.0%), ($1.0 million, or 13.2%), due to a competitor opening close to the casino in November 2022. Operating costs and expenses increased due to increased payroll and marketing costs and cost of goods sold offset by earn out payments of CAD 1.7 million ($1.3 million based on the exchange rate of June 30, 2023) in 2023 related to our 2020 sale of the Calgary casino operations. The sale of the land and building ceasing operations at Century Sports in February 2022 contributed to a decrease in net operating revenue of (CAD 0.3 million) ($0.3 million) and decreased operating costs and expenses of (CAD 0.3 million) ($0.2 million) for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022.

In Poland, casino gaming licenses are granted for a term of six years. These licenses are not renewable. Before a gaming license expires, there is a public notification of the available license and any gaming company can apply for a new license for that city. CPL was awarded a casino gaming license in the Warsaw market which it is currently using at the casino in the Warsaw Marriott. In September 2022, CPL transferred the casino license for the Warsaw Marriott Hotel expiring in July 2024 to the Warsaw Hilton Hotel, and CPL was granted a new license for the Warsaw Marriott Hotel expiring in September 2028. The next license expiration for a CPL casino occurs in October 2023 in Bielsko-Biala and Katowice and November 2023 in Wroclaw.

The following discussion highlights results for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022.

Net operating revenue decreased due to the ship-based casino contract ending in April 2023. General and administrative expenses increased by $0.6 million, or 13.3%, due primarily to increased payroll, insurance and professional service expenses offset by decreased acquisition costs. Earnings from equity investment relates to income from our 50% membership interest in Smooth Bourbon prior to its consolidation in the United States reportable segment on April 3, 2023.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2023 and 2022

Interest income

Interest income is directly related to interest earned on our cash reserves and the Acquisition Escrow. The Acquisition Escrow was used to fund the Nugget Acquisition on April 3, 2023.

Interest expense

Interest expense is directly related to interest owed on our borrowings under our Goldman Credit Agreement, Macquarie Credit Agreement, our financing obligation with VICI PropCo, our CPL and CRM borrowings, our capital lease agreements and interest expense related to the CDR land lease. We wrote off approximately $7.3 million of deferred financing costs to interest expense in the second quarter of 2022 in connection with the prepayment of the Macquarie Term Loan.

Gain on foreign currency transactions, cost recovery income and other

CDR received cost recovery income of $3.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 related to infrastructure built during the development of the Century Downs REC project. The distribution to CDR’s non-controlling shareholders through non-controlling interest is part of a credit agreement between CRM and CDR. Cost recovery income of $1.9 million was received by CDR for the six months ended June 30, 2022.

Taxes

Income tax expense is recorded relative to the jurisdictions that recognize book earnings. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, we recognized income tax expense of $1.7 million on pre-tax income of $5.1 million, representing an effective income tax rate of 33.6% compared to income tax benefit of ($9.0) million on pre-tax income of $3.6 million, representing an effective income tax rate of (251.4%) for the same period in 2022. For further discussion of our effective income tax rates and an analysis of our effective income tax rate compared to the US federal statutory income tax rate, see Note 8, “Income Taxes,” to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this report.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Our business is capital intensive, and we rely heavily on the ability of our casinos to generate operating cash flow. We use the cash flows that we generate to maintain operations, fund reinvestment in existing properties for both refurbishment and expansion projects, repay third party debt, and pursue additional growth via new development and acquisition opportunities. When necessary and available, we supplement the cash flows generated by our operations with either cash on hand or funds provided by bank borrowings or other debt or equity financing activities.

Borrowings and Repayments of Long-Term Debt and Lease Agreements

As of June 30, 2023, our total debt under bank borrowings and other agreements, net of $15.5 million related to deferred financing costs, was $348.6 million, of which $343.5 million was long-term debt and $5.1 million was the current portion of long-term debt. The current portion relates to payments due within one year under our Goldman Credit Agreement, the UniCredit Term Loans and the CDR land lease. The land will be purchased as part of the Canada Real Estate Sale, which is expected to close in the third quarter of 2023. On April 1, 2022, we entered into the Goldman Credit Agreement which provides for a $350.0 million term loan and a $30.0 million revolving line of credit. We drew the $350.0 million under the Goldman Term Loan on April 1, 2022 and used the proceeds as well as approximately $29.3 million of cash on hand to fund the Nugget Acquisition, repay the $166.2 million outstanding on the Macquarie Credit Agreement, and for related fees and expenses. We drew $30.0 million under the Revolving Facility on our Goldman Credit Agreement on July 20, 2023 for the Rocky Gap Acquisition. For a description of our debt agreements, see Note 5, “Long-Term Debt” to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this report. Net Debt was $255.5 million as of June 30, 2023 compared to $273.7 million as of June 30, 2022. For the definition and reconciliation of Net Debt to the most directly comparable US GAAP measure, see “Non-US GAAP Measures – Net Debt” above.

The following table lists the amount of remaining 2023 maturities of our debt:

Amounts in thousands |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Goldman Credit Agreement (1) |  | UniCredit Term Loans |  | Century Downs ‎Land Lease |  | Total
$ | 1,750 |  | $ | 860 |  | $ | — |  | $ | 2,610

(1)The Term Loan under the Goldman Credit Agreement requires scheduled quarterly payments of $875,000, equal to 0.25% of the original aggregate principal amount of the Term Loan, with the balance due at maturity.

The following table lists the amount of remaining 2023 payments due under our operating and finance lease agreements:

Amounts in thousands |  |  |
Operating Leases |  | Finance Leases
$ | 2,724 |  | $ | 94

As of June 30, 2023, cash payments due under the Master Lease for the remainder of 2023 are $19.2 million, which includes a CPI increase and increased rent related to the Rocky Gap Acquisition (discussed below), but does not include the increased rent that would be payable due to the Canadian Real Estate Sale (discussed below). Cash payments to the non-controlling partners under the lease between Smooth Bourbon and Nugget for the remainder of 2023 are $3.8 million.

Common Stock Repurchase Program

Since March 2000, we have had a discretionary program to repurchase our outstanding common stock. The total amount remaining under the repurchase program was $14.7 million as of June 30, 2023. We did not repurchase any common stock during the six months ended June 30, 2023. The repurchase program has no set expiration or termination date.

Potential Sources and Uses of Liquidity and Short-Term Liquidity

Historically, our primary source of liquidity and capital resources has been cash flow from operations. As of June 30, 2023, we had $108.6 million in cash and cash equivalents compared to $101.8 million in cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2022. As of December 31, 2022, we also had $100.2 million of restricted cash in the Acquisition Escrow. The Acquisition Escrow was used to fund the Nugget Acquisition at the Second Closing on April 3, 2023. When necessary and available, we supplement the cash flows generated by our operations with funds provided by bank borrowings or other debt or equity financing activities. We borrowed $30.0 million on our Revolving Facility on July 20, 2023 to fund the Rocky Gap Acquisition. As such, no amounts are currently available for borrowing under our Revolving Facility.

Impact of COVID-19

The duration and impact of the COVID-19 pandemic remains uncertain. We cannot predict the negative impacts that COVID-19 will have on our consumer demand, workforce, suppliers, contractors and other partners, and, whether future closures will be required. While the severity and duration of such business impacts cannot currently be estimated, the effects of COVID-19, governmental health and safety requirements and any future closures are expected to have a material impact on our business. We will continue to monitor our liquidity and make reductions to marketing and operating expenditures, where possible, if future government mandates or closures are required that would have an adverse impact on our cash flows, liquidity and results of operations.

Planned Projects, the Nugget Acquisition, the Rocky Gap Acquisition, Canadian Real Estate Sale

Planned capital expenditures for the remainder of 2023 include approximately $22.9 million in gaming equipment and renovations to various properties and security system upgrades. We are constructing a new land-based casino with a small hotel adjacent to and connected with the existing pavilion building at Century Casino Caruthersville. Construction began in December 2022 with completion expected in late 2024. We estimate this project will cost $51.9 million. The project is being financed with financing provided by VICI PropCo. As of June 30, 2023, we have received $19.8 million from VICI PropCo and have spent approximately $9.9 million of those funds on this project. We estimate that we will spend approximately $30.1 million on this project in the remainder of 2023, which will be financed by additional amounts from VICI PropCo. We are also building a hotel at our Cape Girardeau location. Construction began in September 2022 and is expected to be completed in the first half of 2024. We estimate this project will cost approximately $30.5 million. W e plan to fund the project with cash on hand. As of June 30, 2023, we have spent approximately $12.1 million on this project. We estimate that we will spend approximately $17.5 million on this project in the remainder of 2023.

On April 3, 2023, we purchased 100% of the membership interests in Nugget for approximately $104.7 million (subject to certain adjustments) using the funds in the Acquisition Escrow and cash on hand. We also have a five-year option to acquire the remaining 50% of the membership interests in Smooth Bourbon for $105.0 million plus 2% per annum.

On July 25, 2023, we completed the previously announced Rocky Gap Acquisition for approximately $61.2 million (subject to certain adjustments). In connection with the closing of this transaction one of our subsidiaries and a subsidiary of VICI PropCo entered into an amendment of the Master Lease that provides for an increase in initial annualized rent of approximately $15.5 million. Subsequent to the end of the second quarter, we borrowed $30.0 million from the Revolving Facility on July 20, 2023 to fund the Rocky Gap Acquisition along with cash on hand.

On May 16, 2023, we entered into definitive agreements for subsidiaries of VICI to acquire the real estate assets of the Century Canadian Portfolio for an aggregate purchase price of CAD 221.7 million ($167.3 million based on the exchange rate on June 30, 2023) in cash. Simultaneous with the closing of the transaction, the Century Canadian Portfolio will be added to the Master Lease and annual rent will increase by CAD 17.3 million ($13.1 million based on the exchange rate on June 30, 2023). The transaction is subject to customary regulatory approvals and closing conditions and is expected to close in the third quarter of 2023.

We may be required to raise additional capital to address our liquidity and capital needs. We have a shelf registration statement with the SEC that became effective in June 2023 under which we may issue, from time to time, up to $100 million of common stock, preferred stock, debt securities and other securities.

If necessary, we may seek to obtain further term loans, mortgages or lines of credit with commercial banks or other debt or equity financings to supplement our working capital and investing requirements. Our access to and cost of financing will depend on, among other things, global economic conditions, conditions in the financing markets, the availability of sufficient amounts of financing, our prospects and our credit ratings. A financing transaction may not be available on terms acceptable to us, or at all, and a financing transaction may be dilutive to our current stockholders. The failure to raise the funds necessary to fund our debt service and rent obligations and finance our operations and other capital requirements could have a material and adverse effect on our business, financial condition and liquidity.

In addition, we expect our US domestic cash resources will be sufficient to fund our US operating activities and cash commitments for investing and financing activities. While we currently do not have an intent nor foresee a need to repatriate funds, we could require more capital in the US than is generated by our US operations for operations, capital expenditures or significant discretionary activities such as acquisitions of businesses and share repurchases. If so, we could elect to repatriate earnings from foreign jurisdictions in the form of a cash dividend, which would generally be exempt from taxation with the exception of the adverse impact of withholding taxes. We also could elect to raise capital in the US through debt or equity issuances. We estimate that approximately $36.7 million of our total $108.6 million in cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 2023 is held by our foreign subsidiaries and is not available to fund US operations unless repatriated.
