As a result of the impact of the 2019 novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic, the operations of the Colorado Belle remained suspended as of June 30, 2020. |
The Company’s Distributed Gaming segment involves the installation, maintenance and operation of slots and amusement devices in non-casino locations such as restaurants, bars, taverns, convenience stores, liquor stores and grocery stores in Nevada and Montana, and the operation of branded taverns targeting local patrons located primarily in the greater Las Vegas, Nevada metropolitan area.
Impact of COVID-19
In December 2019, an outbreak of COVID-19 began in Wuhan, Hubei Province, China. The disease has since spread rapidly across the world, causing the World Health Organization to declare COVID-19 a pandemic on March 11, 2020. Since that time, people across the globe have been advised to avoid non-essential travel, and steps have been taken by governmental authorities, including in the States in which the Company operates, to implement closures of non-essential operations to contain the spread of the virus. The COVID-19 pandemic has negatively impacted the global economy, disrupted global supply chains and created significant volatility and disruption of financial markets. Following emergency executive orders issued by the Governors of Nevada, Maryland, and Montana, in the week of March 16, 2020, all of the Company’s properties were temporarily closed to the public and the Company’s Distributed Gaming operations at third-party locations were suspended. The Company’s Distributed Gaming operations in Montana and Nevada resumed on May 4, 2020 and June 4, 2020, respectively, and the Company’s Casino operations in Nevada and Maryland resumed on June 4, 2020 and June 19, 2020, respectively. However, as a result of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the operations of the Colorado Belle remained suspended as of June 30, 2020. While all of the Company’s properties except for Colorado Belle had been re-opened as of June 30, 2020, the Company’s implementation of protocols intended to protect patrons and guests from potential COVID-19 exposure continues to limit the Company’s operations. These measures include enhanced sanitization, public gathering limitations of less than
Temporary closures of the Company’s operations due to the COVID-19 pandemic resulted in lease concessions for certain of the Company’s taverns and route locations. Such concessions provided for deferral of rent payments with no substantive changes to the consideration due per the terms of the original contract and did not result in a substantial increase in the Company’s obligations under such leases. The Company elected to account for the deferred rent payments as variable lease payments, which resulted in an $
6
million reduction in rent expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020. Such rent expense will be recorded in future periods as these deferred payments are paid to the Company’s lessors.
The disruptions arising from the COVID-19 pandemic had a significant adverse impact on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020. The duration and intensity of this global health emergency and related disruptions is uncertain. The impact of COVID-19 on the Company’s consolidated results of operations, cash flows and financial condition in 2020 will be material, but cannot be reasonably estimated at this time, as it is unknown when the COVID-19 pandemic will end, when or how quickly the current travel restrictions and tavern closures will be modified or cease to be necessary, and how these uncertainties will impact the Company’s business and the willingness of customers to spend on travel and entertainment.
The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s operations qualified as a triggering event necessitating an evaluation of long-lived assets, goodwill, and indefinite-lived intangible assets for indicators of impairment as discussed in “Note 3 — Property and Equipment, Net” and “Note 4 — Goodwill and Intangible Assets, Net.”
On March 16, 2020, the Company fully drew the available capacity of $
Basis of Presentation
The unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) applicable to interim financial information. Accordingly, certain information normally included in the annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) has been condensed and/or omitted. For further information, refer to the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2019 and the notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K (the “Annual Report”) previously filed with the SEC. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, which included only normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the Company’s results for the periods presented. Results for interim periods should not be considered indicative of the results to be expected for the full year and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Annual Report.
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Significant Accounting Policies
There have been no changes to the significant accounting policies disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report.
Net Loss Per Share
For all periods, basic net loss per share is calculated by dividing net loss by the weighted-average common shares outstanding. Diluted net loss per share in profitable periods reflects the effect of all potentially dilutive common shares outstanding by dividing net loss by the weighted-average of all common and potentially dilutive shares outstanding. Due to the net losses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the effect of all potential common share equivalents was anti-dilutive, and therefore, all such shares were excluded from the computation of diluted weighted average shares outstanding for both periods. The amount of potential common share equivalents excluded were
Reclassification of Prior Year Balances
Reclassifications were made to the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 to conform to the current period presentation, where applicable.
Accounting Standards Issued and Adopted
In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326) (“Topic 326”). The new guidance replaces the incurred loss impairment methodology in current GAAP with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. For trade and other receivables, loans and other financial
7
instruments, the Company is required to use a forward-looking expected loss model rather than the incurred loss model for recognizing credit losses which reflects losses that are probable. The Company adopted the standard as of January 1, 2020, and the adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements and disclosures.
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement (“Topic 820”). The new guidance amends the disclosure requirements for recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements by removing, modifying, and adding certain disclosures on fair value measurements in Topic 820. The amendments on changes in unrealized gains and losses, the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements, and the narrative description of measurement uncertainty should be applied prospectively for only the most recent interim or annual period presented in the initial fiscal year of adoption. All other amendments should be applied retrospectively to all periods presented upon their effective date. The Company adopted the standard as of January 1, 2020, and the adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements and disclosures.
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-15, Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract. The ASU is intended to eliminate potential diversity in practice in accounting for costs incurred to implement cloud computing arrangements that are service contracts by requiring customers in such arrangements to follow internal-use software guidance with respect to such costs, with any resulting deferred implementation costs recognized over the term of the contract in the same income statement line item as the fees associated with the hosting element of the arrangement. The Company adopted the standard as of January 1, 2020, and the adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements and disclosures.
Accounting Standards Issued but Not Yet Adopted
In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. The ASU is intended to simplify the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions for investments, intraperiod allocations, and interim calculations, and adds guidance to reduce the complexity of applying Topic 740. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020 and interim periods within those fiscal years with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this ASU on its financial statements and disclosures; however, it does not expect the impact to be material.
No other recently issued accounting standards that are not yet effective have been identified that management believes are likely to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

The Company concluded that the impact of the current COVID-19 pandemic on its operations and financial results is an indicator that impairment may exist related to its long-lived assets. As a result, the Company revised its cash flow projections to reflect the current economic environment, including the uncertainty around the nature, timing and extent of elimination or change of the restrictions on its operations, and utilized such projections in performing an interim qualitative assessment of its property and equipment for potential impairment. The Company completed an undiscounted cash flow analysis for each of its properties based on these revised cash flow projections, and the cash flows were sufficient to recover the Company’s assets such that there was
To the extent the Company becomes aware of new facts and circumstances arising from the COVID-19 pandemic that impact its operations, the Company will revise its cash flow projections accordingly, as its estimates of future cash flows are highly dependent upon certain assumptions, including, but not limited to, the nature, timing, and extent of elimination or change of the restrictions on the Company’s operations and the extent and timing of the economic recovery globally, nationally, and specifically within the gaming industry. If such assumptions are not accurate, the Company may be required to record impairment charges in future periods, whether in connection with its regular review procedures, or earlier, if an indicator of an impairment is present prior to such evaluation.
Note 4 – Goodwill and Intangible Assets, Net
The Company tests goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment annually in the last quarter of the year, unless events or changes in circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that the carrying value of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value. Finite-lived intangible assets are evaluated for potential impairment whenever there is an indicator that the carrying value of an asset group may not be recoverable.
During the first quarter of 2020, the Company concluded that the COVID-19 pandemic had an adverse impact on its operations and financial results, particularly within the Company’s Casinos segment due to the mandatory property closures, which management considered an indicator of impairment, and necessitated a performance of interim qualitative and quantitative impairment tests. The Company’s interim assessment resulted in recognition of a non-cash impairment of its Casinos segment goodwill of $
Mandatory shut-down of the Company’s properties for a majority of the second quarter of 2020 resulted in deterioration of performance of the Company’s casino properties in particular, which required the Company to revise its cash flow projections to reflect the current economic environment, including the uncertainty surrounding the nature, timing, and extent of elimination or change of the restrictions on the Company’s operations. As a result of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the operations of the Colorado Belle remained suspended as of June 30, 2020. The Company conducted an interim qualitative and quantitative assessment of its goodwill and intangible assets for potential impairment, which resulted in recognition of an additional non-cash impairment of the Company’s Casinos segment in the amount of $
The estimated fair value of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets for the first and second quarter was determined using discounted cash flow models which utilized Level 3 inputs as follows: discount rate of

Note 9 – Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements
Estimates of fair value for financial assets and liabilities are based on the framework established in the accounting guidance for fair value measurements. The framework defines fair value, provides guidance for measuring fair value and requires certain disclosures. The framework discusses valuation techniques, such as the market approach (comparable market prices), the income approach (present value of future income or cash flow), and the cost approach (cost to replace the service capacity of an asset or replacement cost). The framework utilizes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. The following is a brief description of those three levels:
|
|
• |
Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. |
|
|
• |
Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active. |
|
|
• |
Level 3: Unobservable inputs that reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions. |
Financial assets and liabilities are classified based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Thus, assets and liabilities categorized as Level 3 may be measured at fair value using inputs that are observable (Levels 1 and 2) and unobservable (Level 3). Management’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment and may affect the valuation of assets and liabilities and their placement within the fair value hierarchy levels.
The carrying values of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and accounts payable approximate fair value because of the short duration of these financial instruments.
The following table summarizes the fair value measurement of the Company’s long-term debt:

The estimated fair value of the Company’s Term Loan, Revolving Credit Facility and 2026 Unsecured Notes is based on a relative value analysis performed as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019. The finance lease liabilities and notes payable are fixed-rate debt, are not traded and do not have observable market inputs, therefore, the fair value is estimated to be equal to the carrying value.
As of June 30, 2020, the Company had an interest rate cap agreement that was outstanding with a notional amount of $
Note 10 – Commitments and Contingencies
Participation and Revenue Share Agreements
The Company enters into slot placement contracts in the form of participation and revenue share agreements. Under participation agreements, the business location holds the applicable gaming license and retains a percentage of the gaming revenue that it generates from the Company’s slots. Under revenue share agreements, the Company pays the business location a percentage of the gaming revenue generated from the Company’s slots placed at the location, rather than a fixed monthly rental fee. The aggregate contingent payments recognized by the Company as gaming expenses under revenue share and participation agreements were $
Legal Matters
From time to time, the Company is involved in a variety of lawsuits, claims, investigations and other legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business, including proceedings concerning labor and employment matters, personal injury claims, breach of contract claims, commercial disputes, business practices, intellectual property, tax and other matters for which the Company records reserves. Although lawsuits, claims, investigations and other legal proceedings are inherently uncertain and their results cannot be predicted with certainty, the Company believes that the resolution of its currently pending matters should not have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, results of operations or liquidity. Regardless of the outcome, legal proceedings can have an adverse impact on the Company because of defense costs, diversion of management resources and other factors. In addition, it is possible that an unfavorable resolution of one or more such proceedings could in the future materially and adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations or liquidity in a particular period.
On August 31, 2018, prior guests of The Strat filed a purported class action complaint against the Company in the District Court, Clark County, Nevada, on behalf of similarly situated individuals and entities that paid the Clark County Combined Transient Lodging Tax (“Tax”) on the portion of a resort fee that constitutes charges for Internet access, during the period of February 6, 2014 through the date the alleged conduct ceases. The lawsuit alleged that the Tax was charged in violation of the federal Internet Tax Freedom Act, which imposed a national moratorium on the taxation of Internet access by states and their political subdivisions, and sought, on behalf of the plaintiff and the putative class, damages equal to the amount of the Tax collected on the Internet access component of the resort fee, injunctive relief, disgorgement, interest, fees and costs. All defendants to this matter, including Golden Entertainment, Inc., filed a joint motion to dismiss this matter for lack of merit. The District Court granted this joint motion to dismiss on February 21, 2019. The plaintiffs filed an appeal to the Supreme Court of Nevada on April 10, 2019. The Company, and other defendants, filed an appellate response brief on October 19, 2019. On July 29, 2020 the Supreme Court of the State of Nevada upheld the lower court’s 2019 dismissal of this case.

On August 5, 2015 a prior employee filed a Charge of Discrimination with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (“EEOC”) and subsequently filed an Amended Charge of Discrimination on January 2016 alleging that the Company engaged in disability discrimination under the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, as amended. The EEOC has requested financial recovery as well as that the Company update certain policies and procedures. In late 2019 the EEOC issued a Letter of Determination and invited the Company to participate in a mediation on behalf of the plaintiff and similarly situated parties to work toward a resolution of this matter. The Company has agreed to mediation in this matter. No mediation date has yet been set.
While legal proceedings are inherently unpredictable and no assurance can be given as to the ultimate outcome of any of the above matters, based on management’s current understanding of the relevant facts and circumstances, the Company believes that these proceedings should not have a material adverse effect on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
Note 11 – Segment Information
The Company conducts its business through
The Company evaluates each segment’s profitability based upon such segment’s Adjusted EBITDA, which represents each segment’s earnings before interest and other non-operating income (expense), income taxes, depreciation and amortization, impairment of goodwill and intangible assets, acquisition and severance expenses, preopening and related expenses, asset disposal and other writedowns, share-based compensation expenses, and change in fair value of derivative, calculated before corporate overhead (which is not allocated to each segment).

Overview
We own and operate a diversified entertainment platform, consisting of a portfolio of gaming assets that focus on resort casino operations and distributed gaming (including gaming in our branded taverns).
We conduct our business through two reportable operating segments: Casinos and Distributed Gaming. In our Casinos segment, we own and operate ten resort casino properties in Nevada and Maryland. Our Distributed Gaming segment involves the installation, maintenance and operation of slots and amusement devices in non-casino locations such as restaurants, bars, taverns, convenience stores, liquor stores and grocery stores in Nevada and Montana, and the operation of branded taverns targeting local patrons located primarily in the greater Las Vegas, Nevada metropolitan area.
Impact of COVID-19
In December 2019, an outbreak of COVID-19 began in Wuhan, Hubei Province, China. The disease has since spread rapidly across the world, causing the World Health Organization to declare COVID-19 a pandemic on March 11, 2020. Since that time, people across the globe have been advised to avoid non-essential travel, and steps have been taken by governmental authorities, including in the States in which we operate, to implement closures of non-essential operations to contain the spread of the virus. The COVID-19 pandemic has negatively impacted the global economy, disrupted global supply chains and created significant volatility and disruption of financial markets. Following emergency executive orders issued by the Governors of Nevada, Maryland, and Montana, in the week of March 16, 2020, all of our properties were temporarily closed to the public and our Distributed Gaming operations at third-party
19
locations were suspended. Our Distributed Gaming operations in Montana and Nevada resumed on May 4, 2020 and June 4, 2020, respectively, and our Casino operations in Nevada and Maryland resumed on June 4, 2020 and June 19, 2020, respectively. However, as a result of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the operations of the Colorado Belle Hotel & Casino Resort (“Colorado Belle”) remained suspended as of June 30, 2020. While all of our properties except for the Colorado Belle had been re-opened as of June 30, 2020, our implementation of protocols intended to protect patrons and guests from potential COVID-19 exposure continues to limit our operations. These measures include enhanced sanitization, public gathering limitations of less than 50% of casino and tavern capacity, patron social distancing requirements, limitations on casino operations, which include disabling electronic gaming machines, and face mask and temperature check requirements for patrons. Certain amenities at our casinos may remain closed or operate in a limited capacity, including restaurants, bars, and other food and beverage outlets, as well as table games, spas and pools. These measures limit the number of patrons that are able to attend these venues. Subsequent to fiscal quarter end, effective July 10, 2020, the Governor of the State of Nevada issued a new emergency executive order mandating the closure of bars, pubs, taverns, breweries, distilleries, and wineries in seven counties, including Clark County (the location of most of our branded taverns) (see “Note 13 — Subsequent Events” in Part I, Item 1: Financial Statements.) We cannot predict when these restrictions on our operations will be changed or eliminated.
The disruptions arising from the COVID-19 pandemic had a significant adverse impact on our financial condition and results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020. The duration and intensity of this global health emergency and related disruptions is uncertain. The impact of COVID-19 on our consolidated results of operations, cash flows and financial condition in 2020 will be material, but cannot be reasonably estimated at this time, as it is unknown when the COVID-19 pandemic will end, when or how quickly the current travel restrictions will be modified or cease to be necessary, and how these uncertainties will impact our business and the willingness of customers to spend on travel and entertainment.
The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our operations qualified as a triggering event necessitating an evaluation of long-lived assets, goodwill, and indefinite-lived intangible assets for indicators of impairment as discussed in “Note 3 — Property and Equipment, Net” and “Note 4 — Goodwill and Intangible Assets, Net” in Part I, Item 1: Financial Statements.
On March 16, 2020, we fully drew the available capacity of $200 million under our revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) as a precautionary measure in order to increase our cash position and preserve financial flexibility in light of uncertainty in the global markets resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. During the second quarter of 2020, we repaid $190 million of our borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility, and as of June 30, 2020, $190 million remained available to us for reborrowing. In addition, we have implemented various mitigating actions to preserve liquidity, including delaying all material capital expenditures, reducing cash operating expenses and implementing a non-essential cost reduction program. To further enhance our liquidity position or to finance any future acquisition or other business investment initiatives, we may obtain additional financing, which could consist of debt, convertible debt or equity financing from public or private credit and capital markets.
Casinos
We own and operate ten resort casino properties in Nevada and Maryland. In light of COVID-19, certain amenities at our resort casino properties may remain closed or operate in a limited capacity, including restaurants, bars, and other food and beverage outlets, as well as table games, spas and pools.

Distributed Gaming
Our Distributed Gaming segment involves the installation, maintenance and operation of slots and amusement devices in non-casino locations such as restaurants, bars, taverns, convenience stores, liquor stores and grocery stores in Nevada and Montana. We place our slots and amusement devices in locations where we believe they will receive maximum customer traffic, generally near a store’s entrance. In addition, we own and operate branded taverns with slots, which target local patrons, primarily in the greater Las Vegas, Nevada metropolitan area. As of June 30, 2020, our distributed gaming operations comprised approximately 11,000 slots in over 1,000 locations.
Our branded taverns offer a casual, upscale environment catering to local patrons offering superior food, craft beer and other alcoholic beverages, and typically include 15 onsite slots. As of June 30, 2020, we owned and operated 66 branded taverns, which offered a total of over 1,000 onsite slots. Most of our taverns are located in the greater Las Vegas, Nevada metropolitan area and cater to local patrons seeking more convenient entertainment establishments than traditional casino properties. Our tavern brands include PT’s Gold, PT’s Pub, Sierra Gold, Sean Patrick’s, PT’s Place, PT’s Ranch, Sierra Junction and SG Bar.
On July 10, 2020, the Governor of the State of Nevada issued a new emergency executive order mandating the closure of bars, pubs, taverns, breweries, distilleries, and wineries in seven counties, including Clark County. As a result of the Governor’s executive order, we have closed most of our tavern locations. As of the date hereof, we are not able to estimate when we will be able to re-open these tavern locations and we are evaluating mitigating actions that would allow us to resume our tavern operations in these locations.

The lower Adjusted EBITDA margin in our Distributed Gaming segment relative to our Casinos segment reflects the fixed and variable amounts paid to third parties under our space and revenue share agreements as expenses in the Distributed Gaming segment (which includes the percentage of gaming revenues paid to third parties under revenue share agreements. Refer to “Note 11 — Segment Information” in Part I, Item 1: Financial Statements for additional information regarding segment Adjusted EBITDA and a reconciliation of segment Adjusted EBITDA to segment net loss.
Operating Expenses
The $94.4 million, or 65%, decrease in operating expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the prior year resulted primarily from $48.8 million, $30.4 million, $11.4 million and $3.8 million decreases in gaming, food and beverage, room and other expenses, respectively. These operating expense decreases primarily reflect the temporary closures of our casino properties, branded taverns and distributed gaming routes as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The $103.8 million, or 36%, decrease in operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the prior year resulted primarily from $53.0 million, $33.8 million, $11.9 million and $5.1 million decreases in gaming, food and beverage, room and other expenses, respectively. These operating expense decreases primarily reflect the temporary closures of our casino properties, branded taverns and distributed gaming routes as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
The $23.7 million, or 42.1%, decrease in selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the prior year period was primarily due to the temporary closures of our casino properties, branded taverns and distributed gaming routes as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, which resulted in a decrease in payroll and other expenses. SG&A expenses are comprised of marketing and advertising, utilities, building rent, maintenance contracts, corporate office overhead, information technology, legal, accounting, third-party service providers, executive compensation, share-based compensation and payroll expenses and payroll taxes.
The $33.2 million, or 29.2%, decrease in SG&A expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the prior year period was primarily due to the temporary closures of our casino properties, branded taverns and distributed gaming routes as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, which resulted in a decrease in payroll and other expenses.
23
Acquisition and Severance Expenses
Acquisition expenses were incurred primarily for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and related to consulting services for our acquisition of Edgewater Gaming, LLC and Colorado Belle Gaming, LLC from Marnell Gaming, LLC, which closed on January 14, 2019 (the “Laughlin Acquisition”). Severance expenses were primarily incurred for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and related to the mitigating actions we took to preserve liquidity in light of COVID-19.
Preopening Expenses
Preopening expenses consist of labor, food, utilities, training, initial licensing, rent and organizational costs incurred. Non-capital costs associated with the opening of tavern and casino locations are also expensed as preopening expenses as incurred.
Preopening expenses related primarily to corporate costs incurred for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation and amortization expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2020 increased by $2.0 million, or 6.5%, compared to the prior year period, primarily due to the depreciation of the assets related to the remodel of The Strat and the amortization of the intangibles related to the Laughlin Acquisition.
Depreciation and amortization expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2020 increased $5.8 million, or 10.2%, compared to the prior year period, primarily due to the depreciation of the assets related to the remodel of The Strat and the amortization of the intangibles related to the Laughlin Acquisition.
Non-Operating Expense, Net
Non-operating expense, net decreased $13.4 million, or 44.9%, for the three months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the prior year period, primarily due to a $1.5 million decrease in loss on change in fair value of derivative, a $9.2 million decrease in loss of extinguishment of debt, and a $2.7 million decrease in interest expense compared to prior year.
Non-operating expense, net decreased $15.0 million, or 29.9%, for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the prior year period, primarily due to a $3.7 million decrease in loss on change in fair value of derivative, a $9.2 million decrease in loss of extinguishment of debt, and a $2.1 million decrease in interest expense compared to prior year.
Income Taxes
Our effective income tax rate was 0.3% and 0.2% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, and (8.5)% and (8.2)% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively. The effective income tax rate differed from the federal tax rate of 21% due primarily to the change in valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets both for three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019.
Non-GAAP Measures
To supplement our consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), we use Adjusted EBITDA, a measure we believe is appropriate to provide meaningful comparison with, and to enhance an overall understanding of, our past financial performance and prospects for the future. We believe Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to both management and investors by excluding specific expenses and gains that we believe are not indicative of our core operating results. Further, Adjusted EBITDA is a measure of operating performance used by management, as well as industry analysts, to evaluate operations and operating performance and is widely used in the gaming industry. The presentation of this additional information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, other companies in our industry may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do. A reconciliation of net loss to Adjusted EBITDA is provided in the table below.
We define “Adjusted EBITDA” as earnings before interest and other non-operating income (expense), income taxes, depreciation and amortization, impairment of goodwill, acquisition and severance expenses, preopening and related expenses, asset disposal and other writedowns, share-based compensation expenses, and change in fair value of derivative.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of June 30, 2020, we had $86.2 million in cash and cash equivalents. We currently believe that our cash and cash equivalents, cash flows from operations and borrowing availability under our Revolving Credit Facility will be sufficient to meet our capital requirements during the next 12 months. As of June 30, 2020, we had borrowing availability of $190 million under our Revolving Credit Facility.
Our operating results and performance depend significantly on national, regional and local economic conditions and their effect on consumer spending. Declines in consumer spending would cause revenues generated in both our Casinos and Distributed Gaming segments to be adversely affected.
To further enhance our liquidity position or to finance any future acquisition or other business investment initiatives, we may obtain additional financing, which could consist of debt, convertible debt or equity financing from public and/or private credit and capital markets.
Cash Flows
Net cash used in operating activities was $10.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $61.4 million for the prior year period. The decrease was primarily due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our operations (as described above) and the timing of working capital spending.
Net cash used in investing activities was $21.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to $202.4 million for the prior year period. The decrease in net cash used in investing activities reflects the closing of the Laughlin Acquisition and capital expenditures made in 2019, and the deferral of all material capital expenditures in light of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020.
Net cash provided by financing activities was $6.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, primarily due to the borrowing of $200 million under our Revolving Credit Facility as a precautionary measure in order to increase our cash position and preserve financial flexibility in light of uncertainty in the global markets resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, offset by the repayment of $190 million under our Revolving Credit Facility during the second quarter of 2020. Net cash provided by financing activities was $141.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, primarily due to issuance of the 7.625% Senior Notes due 2026 in April 2019, partially offset by the repayment in full of our $200 million senior secured second lien term loan facility.
Long-Term Debt
Refer to “Note 6 — Long-Term Debt” in Part I, Item 1: Financial Statements and to “Liquidity and Capital Resources” in Part II. Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Annual Report for discussion of our debt instruments.
25
Other Items Affecting Liquidity
The outcome of the following specific matters, including our commitments and contingencies, may also affect our liquidity.
Commitments, Capital Spending and Development
We normally perform on-going refurbishment and maintenance at our facilities, of which certain maintenance costs are capitalized if such improvement or refurbishment extends the life of the related asset, while other maintenance costs that do not so qualify are expensed as incurred. The commitment of capital and the related timing thereof are contingent upon, among other things, negotiation of final agreements and receipt of approvals from the appropriate regulatory bodies. We normally fund such capital expenditures through our Revolving Credit Facility and operating cash flows. However, due to the impact of COVID-19 pandemic on our operations, all material capital expenditures have been deferred.
Refer to “Note 10 — Commitments and Contingencies” in Part I, Item 1: Financial Statements for additional information regarding commitments and contingencies that may also affect our liquidity.
Share Repurchase Program
On March 12, 2019, our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $25.0 million additional shares of common stock, subject to available liquidity, general market and economic conditions, alternate uses for the capital and other factors. Share repurchases may be made from time to time in open market transactions, block trades or in private transactions in accordance with applicable securities laws and regulations and other legal requirements, including compliance with our finance agreements. There is no minimum number of shares that we are required to repurchase and the repurchase program may be suspended or discontinued at any time without prior notice. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, no shares of our common stock were repurchased under our share repurchase programs.
Other Opportunities
We may investigate and pursue expansion opportunities in our existing or new markets from time to time. Such expansions will be influenced and determined by a number of factors, which may include licensing availability and approval, suitable investment opportunities and availability of acceptable financing. Investigation and pursuit of such opportunities may require us to make substantial investments or incur substantial costs, which we may fund through cash flows from operations or borrowing availability under our Revolving Credit Facility. To the extent such sources of funds are not sufficient, we may also seek to raise such additional funds through public or private equity or debt financings or from other sources. No assurance can be given that additional financing will be available or that, if available, such financing will be obtainable on terms favorable to us. Moreover, we can provide no assurances that the investigation or pursuit of an opportunity will result in a completed transaction.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Management’s discussion and analysis of our results of operations and liquidity and capital resources are based on our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the balance sheet date and reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and judgments, including those related to the application of the acquisition method of accounting, long-lived assets, goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets, revenue recognition, income taxes and share-based compensation expenses. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates.
A description of our critical accounting estimates can be found under Part II. Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Annual Report. For a more extensive discussion of our accounting policies, refer to “Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in Part II, Item 8: Financial Statements and Supplemental Data in our Annual Report. There were no material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020.
26
Commitments and Contractual Obligations
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, there were no material changes in our commitments under contractual obligations as compared to those disclosed in Part II. Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Other Items Affecting Liquidity – Contractual Obligations in our Annual Report.
Seasonality
We believe that our Casinos and Distributed Gaming segments are affected by seasonal factors, including holidays, weather and travel conditions. Our Las Vegas and Pahrump casinos as well as our Nevada distributed gaming businesses have historically experienced lower revenues during the summer as a result of fewer tourists due to higher temperatures in addition to increased vacation activity by local residents. Our casinos in Laughlin and Rocky Gap typically experience higher revenues during summer months with increased visitation and may be adversely impacted by inclement weather during winter months. Our Montana distributed gaming operations also typically experience higher revenues during the summer due to the inclement weather in other seasons. While other factors like the COVID-19 pandemic, unemployment levels, market competition and the diversification of our business may either offset or magnify seasonal effects, some seasonality is likely to continue, which could result in significant fluctuation in our quarterly operating results.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
See “Note 1 — Nature of Business and Basis of Presentation” in Part I, Item 1: Financial Statements for information regarding recently issued accounting pronouncements.
Regulation and Taxes
The casino and distributed gaming industries are subject to extensive regulation by state gaming authorities. Changes in applicable laws or regulations could have a material adverse effect on us.
The gaming industry represents a significant source of tax revenues to regulators. From time to time, various federal and state legislators and officials have proposed changes in tax law, or in the administration of such law, affecting the gaming industry. It is not possible to determine the likelihood of possible changes in tax law or in the administration of such law. Such changes, if adopted, could have a material adverse effect on our future financial position, results of operations, cash flows and prospects.
Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no off balance sheet arrangements that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a current or future effect on our financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Our primary exposure to market risk is interest rate risk associated with our variable rate long-term debt. As of June 30, 2020, our variable rate long-term debt primarily comprised our indebtedness under the Credit Facility (defined in “Note 6 — Long-Term Debt” in Part I, Item 1: Financial Statements).
As of June 30, 2020, we had $772 million in principal amount of outstanding borrowings under the Term Loan (defined in “Note 6 — Long-Term Debt” in Part I, Item 1: Financial Statements) and $10 million in principal amount of outstanding borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility. Our primary interest rate under the Credit Facility is the Eurodollar rate plus an applicable margin. The weighted-average effective interest rate on our outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility was approximately 3.77% and 4.17% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively. Assuming the outstanding balance under our Credit Facility remained constant over a year, a 50 basis point increase in the applicable interest rate would increase interest incurred, prior to effects of capitalized interest, by $3.9 million over a twelve-month period.
As of June 30, 2020, our investment portfolio included $86.2 million in cash and cash equivalents and we did not hold any short-term investments.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving the objective that information in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified and pursuant to the requirements of the SEC’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosures. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
27
As required by SEC Rule 13a-15(b), we carried out an evaluation, with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2020, the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level as of June 30, 2020.
During the quarter ended June 30, 2020, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Part II. Other Information
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
A discussion of our legal proceedings is contained in “Note 10 — Commitments and Contingencies — Legal Matters” in Part I, Item 1: Financial Statements.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report, as updated by our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2020, which factors could materially affect our business, financial condition, liquidity or future results. There have been no material changes to the risk factors described in the “Risk Factors” section in our Annual Report. The risks described in our Annual Report are not the only risks facing our company. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, liquidity, results of operations, prospects or stock price.
