Gaming and Leisure Properties Enters into Sale Leaseback and Development Funding Transactions with Bally’s Corporation Totaling $1.585 Billion at Blended 8.3% Initial Cash Yield

Multi-Faceted Transaction Further Expands and Diversifies GLPI’s Industry-Leading Regional Property Portfolio; Provides Bally’s with Financing for its Highly-Anticipated Flagship Chicago Casino Facility

WYOMISSING, Pa., July 12, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --  Gaming and Leisure Properties, Inc. (NASDAQ:GLPI) (“GLPI” or “the Company”), announced today that it has entered into a binding term sheet with Bally’s Corporation (NYSE: BALY) (“Bally’s”) pursuant to which the Company intends to acquire the real property assets of Bally’s Kansas City Casino (“Bally’s Kansas City”) and Bally’s Shreveport Casino & Hotel (“Bally’s Shreveport”) as well as the land under Bally’s permanent Chicago casino, and provide construction financing for the Bally’s Chicago Casino Resort (“Bally’s Chicago”) for aggregate consideration of approximately $1.585 billion representing a blended 8.3% initial cash yield. In addition, GLPI secured adjustments to improve the purchase price and related cap rate related to the existing, previously announced, contingent purchase option for Bally’s Lincoln Casino Resort (“Bally’s Lincoln”), as well as the addition of a right for GLPI to call the asset beginning on October 1, 2026.

$1.19 Billion Chicago Flagship Casino Development Investment
GLPI intends to fund construction hard costs of up to $940 million at an 8.5% initial cash yield with the remainder to be funded by Bally’s with the sale leaseback proceeds related to Bally’s Kansas City and Bally’s Shreveport along with other funding sources such as Bally’s Chicago’s planned initial public offering and cash flows from operations. Funding is expected to occur from August 2024 through December 2026. GLPI will own all funded improvements, which will be leased to Bally’s with rent commencing at a rate of 8.5% as advances are made. The total project’s costs are currently expected to be approximately $1.8 billion, inclusive of construction, land, and rent.

In addition to the development funding of hard costs, GLPI also intends to acquire the Chicago land for approximately $250 million before development begins. Upon GLPI’s purchase of the Chicago land, rent will commence under a new lease carrying a 15-year initial term with an initial cash yield of 8.0%. The new lease will be cross-defaulted with the construction development funding agreement. Upon completion of the improvements and acquisition of the land, GLPI will own substantially all of the real estate land and improvements related to the Chicago casino and hotel for a total investment of $1.19 billion and blended initial cash investment yield of 8.4%. Upon stabilization of the property’s operations, the rent coverage for the lease is expected to be in the range of 2.0x – 2.4x.

$395 Million Kansas City and Shreveport Sale Leaseback Investment
GLPI will purchase the real property assets of both Bally’s Kansas City and Bally’s Shreveport for total consideration of $395 million. The two properties will be in a new Bally’s Master Lease that will be cross-defaulted with the existing Bally’s Master Lease with initial cash rent pursuant to the agreement for the two new properties of $32.2 million, representing an 8.2% initial cash capitalization rate. Total rent coverage on the Kansas City and Shreveport assets is expected to be 2.2x in the initial year post acquisition. The Company expects to close on the proposed Bally’s Kansas City and Bally’s Shreveport sale leaseback transactions as early as Q4 2024 subject to customary regulatory and other approvals.

In total, the Chicago, Kansas City, and Shreveport transactions represent a blended 8.3% yield and are expected to be funded on a staggered basis with cash on hand, retained operational cash flow, availability on GLPI’s revolving credit facility, and proceeds from potential capital markets activity.

The transactions are subject to several conditions as well as certain third-party consents and regulatory approvals. Key conditions include but are not limited to: (a) valid assignment of the current ground lease to GLPI or acquisition by GLPI of the fee interest in Chicago; (b) the final structure and pro forma capitalization of Bally’s following the proposed Standard General acquisition, or similar transaction, in the event any agreement is reached with the board of directors of Bally’s; (c) completion of customary due diligence on the Chicago site; and (d) receipt of all necessary gaming regulatory and other third party approvals.

Adjustments to Improve Bally’s Lincoln Purchase Option
GLPI and Bally’s have further agreed to adjust GLPI’s existing contingent purchase option for Bally’s Lincoln to reflect a purchase price of $735 million, which has been reduced from $771 million. The purchase price adjustment results in the initial cash yield’s favorable adjustment from 7.6% to 8.0% based on $58.8 million initial cash rent. GLPI has also been granted a call right, subject only to regulatory approval, beginning on October 1, 2026 to ensure that GLPI has the opportunity to acquire the property prior to the expiration of the current option period.

Peter Carlino, Chairman and CEO of GLPI commented, “We are delighted to partner again with Bally’s on this series of highly attractive transactions that will benefit our shareholders and represent a win-win for both parties. These transactions will be accretive to our financial results, delivering an 8.3% blended initial cash yield and are structured with conservative rent coverage. GLPI is ideally positioned for these transactions as structured given our strong balance sheet, visible recurring cash flows, low leverage and the extensive casino development and construction experience that our team uniquely brings to the opportunity. This multi-faceted deal is another example of our ability to be innovative in our approach to creating opportunities for our shareholders in conjunction with our best-in-class regional gaming tenants in what remains a volatile interest rate and challenging transaction environment. Furthermore, these transactions will expand and diversify our already industry-leading regional gaming property portfolio while adding a downtown asset in a world-class city, and the nation’s third largest metropolitan area, to our unmatched geographic breadth. We look forward to working with the Bally’s team as they begin development of what promises to be a must-visit destination casino resort property in the heart of Chicago.”

Soo Kim, Chairman of Bally’s, added, “GLPI has been a great partner for many years. We are excited to expand our relationship as we leverage their development and financing expertise to grow Bally’s with the world class Chicago casino development. Chicago is a vitally important market for our company and our permanent downtown facility will become our company’s flagship property when it opens in late 2026. We are thrilled to have the investment from GLPI as we begin construction of Bally’s Chicago, and we are confident that this critical project funding milestone will be well-received by our host community and the various stakeholders in Chicago.”

Responsible Gaming

PROMOTING RESPONSIBLE GAMING IS A CORE VALUE OF GAMING AND LEISURE PROPERTIES, INC.

Gaming and Leisure Properties Inc. (“GLPI”) wants all of our casinos’ customers to have fun and to enjoy the casinos safely. We are committed to a policy of responsible gaming. While we recognize that the overwhelming majority of customers at our casinos enjoy our various forms of gambling and non-gambling amenities responsibly, we also understand that there is a small proportion of the population who do not.

To protect them, and others affected by their behavior, our casinos have established a set of policies and guidelines modeled after the American Gaming Association’s Code of Conduct for Responsible Gaming. The “Code” establishes minimum standards that address problem gambling, underage gambling, improper use of alcohol, responsible marketing and advertising and the prevention of unattended minors.

Our casinos use a variety of approaches to promote Responsible Gaming including employee training programs, customer awareness campaigns, self-exclusion and financial restriction programs, written procedures for recognizing and managing these issues, use of outside experts, and ongoing monitoring and review to gauge the effectiveness of these programs.

RECOGNIZING THE PROBLEM

It is widely believed that 1-2% of all gamblers are compulsive and that most experience varying degrees of depression and problems in their lives. Participating in games of chance becomes a self-medicating distraction, providing only temporary relief from underlying problems associated with compulsive behavior.

HOW DO YOU KNOW IF YOU HAVE A GAMBLING PROBLEM?

Review the following questions:

  • You have often gambled longer than you had planned.
  • You have often gambled until your last dollar was gone.
  • Thoughts of gambling have caused you to lose sleep.
  • You have used your income or savings to gamble while letting bills go unpaid.
  • You have made repeated, unsuccessful attempts to stop gambling.
  • You have broken the law or considered breaking the law to finance your gambling.
  • You have borrowed money to finance your gambling.
  • You have felt depressed or suicidal because of your gambling losses.
  • You have been remorseful after gambling.
  • You have gambled to get money to meet your financial obligations.

We value your trust and respect your confidentiality. As a general practice we do not provide any online information, or any information gathered through forms, applications or other means to outside third parties, unless otherwise designated. We do not sell or rent any information gathered online, or in individual property players’ clubs, to any outside organization.

This Privacy Policy will tell you what information we collect about you and about your use of the websites and services. We urge you to read this Privacy Policy carefully.
