We conduct our business through three reportable segments: Churchill Downs, Online Wagering, and Gaming.

We report net revenue and operating expense associated with these reportable segments in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income. Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the COVID-19 outbreak a global pandemic. Considerable uncertainty still surrounds the COVID-19 virus and its potential effects, and the extent of and effectiveness of responses taken on international, national and local levels. Measures taken to limit the impact of COVID-19, including shelter-in-place orders, social distancing measures, travel bans and restrictions, and business and government shutdowns, have resulted and continue to result in significant negative economic impacts in the United States and in relation to our business. The long-term impact of COVID-19 on the United States and world economies and continuing impact on our business remains uncertain, the duration and scope of which cannot currently be predicted. In response to the measures taken to limit the impact of COVID-19 described above, and for the protection of our employees, customers, and communities, we temporarily suspended operations at our properties in March 2020. In May 2020, we began to reopen our properties with patron capacity limitations and gaming restrictions. We also implemented other initiatives to facilitate social distancing and enhanced cleaning, such as increased frequency of cleaning and sanitizing of all high-touch surfaces, mandatory temperature checks of all guests and team members upon entry and required training for all team members on safety protocols. Certain amenities at our properties have continued to be suspended, including all of our food buffets and valet services, and certain restaurants and food outlets.

On March 25, 2020, as a result of the temporary closures and suspended operations described above, the Company announced the temporary furlough of employees at its wholly-owned and managed gaming properties and certain racing operations. As the Company has reopened these properties, certain employees have returned to work while others remain on temporary furlough due to the capacity restrictions at these properties. The Company is providing health, dental, vision and life insurance benefits to furloughed employees through July 31, 2020. The Company also implemented a temporary salary reduction for all remaining non-furloughed salaried employees based on a percentage that varies dependent upon the amount of each employee’s salary. The most senior level of executive management has received the largest salary decrease, based on both percentage and dollar amount. Salaries for non-furloughed employees will resume at the annual base salary beginning with their start of the employee's first full pay period subsequent to July 31, 2020. There have been a number of other aspects of our business that have been impacted by COVID-19 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, including the following: • The Company rescheduled the 146th Kentucky Oaks and Derby from May 1-2, 2020 to September 4-5, 2020. On June 24, 2020, the Company received approval from the Governor of Kentucky and state public health officials for its plan to allow limited spectators to attend the Kentucky Derby week events held September 1-5, 2020. • Horse racing content for wagering on our TwinSpires business ("TwinSpires") decreased, although handle increased as our customers wagered more on the content that was available. • Starting in mid-February 2020, U.S. and international sporting events were cancelled, which reduced sports betting content for our customers. Financial Status and Outlook The Company has temporarily reduced its planned maintenance and project capital expenditures for 2020 as a result of the temporary property and operations closures and has prioritized its capital investments based on the highest near-term return opportunities in order to maintain financial flexibility. On March 16, 2020, we borrowed $675.4 million on our revolving credit facility (the "Revolver") pursuant to the Credit Agreement (defined below) to provide the Company with additional financial flexibility, which provided the Company with $649.2 million of cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2020. On April 28, 2020, the Company entered into a Second Amendment to its Credit Agreement, which (i) provides for a financial covenant relief period through the date on which the Company delivers its quarterly financial statements and compliance certificate for the fiscal quarter ending June 30, 2021, subject to certain exceptions (the “Financial Covenant Relief Period”), (ii) amends the definition of “Consolidated EBITDA” in the Credit Agreement with respect to the calculation of Consolidated EBITDA for the first two fiscal quarters after the termination of the Financial Covenant Relief Period, (iii) extends certain deadlines and makes certain other amendments to the Company’s financial reporting obligations, (iv) places certain restrictions on restricted payments during the Financial Covenant Relief Period, and (v) amends the definitions of “Material Adverse Effect” and “License Revocation” in the Credit Agreement to take into consideration COVID-19. During the Financial Covenant Relief Period, the Company will not be required to comply with the consolidated total secured net leverage ratio financial covenant and the interest coverage ratio financial covenant. The Company has agreed to a minimum liquidity financial covenant that requires the Company and its restricted subsidiaries to maintain liquidity of at least $150.0 million during the Financial Covenant Relief Period. We continue to assess the situation at our properties and operations on a daily basis; however, we are unable to determine when we will be able to reopen any properties and / or operations that are closed or that may be closed in the future, the conditions upon which we will reopen, and when the current restrictions in place for our opened properties will be removed. Our third quarter of 2020 financial results will be materially impacted by the rescheduling of the Kentucky Oaks and Derby from the second quarter of 2020 to the third quarter of 2020, by the temporary suspended operations at certain properties, and continued restrictions at the properties that have reopened. Based on our current projected operating cash flow needs, interest and debt repayments, and revised maintenance and project capital expenditures, we believe we have adequate cash to fund our business operations, meet all of our financial commitments, and invest in our prioritized key growth capital projects for well beyond the next twelve months. Acquisitions of Presque Isle and Lady Luck Nemacolin On January 11, 2019, we completed the acquisition of Presque Isle located in Erie, Pennsylvania from Eldorado Resorts, Inc. ("ERI") for cash consideration of $178.9 million (the "Presque Isle Transaction") and $1.6 million of working capital and other purchase price adjustments. On March 8, 2019, the Company assumed management and acquired certain assets related to the management of Lady Luck Nemacolin in Farmington, Pennsylvania, from ERI for cash consideration of $100,000 (the "Lady Luck Nemacolin Transaction"). Acquisition of Certain Ownership Interests of Midwest Gaming Holdings, LLC On March 5, 2019, the Company completed the acquisition of certain ownership interests of Midwest Gaming Holdings, LLC ("Midwest Gaming"), the parent company of Rivers Des Plaines in Des Plaines, Illinois to acquire approximately 42% of Midwest Gaming from affiliates and co-investors of Clairvest Group Inc. ("Clairvest") and members of High Plaines Gaming, LLC ("High Plaines"), an affiliate of Rush Street Gaming, LLC and Casino Investors, LLC ("Casino Investors") for cash consideration of approximately $406.6 million and $3.5 million of certain transaction costs and working capital adjustments (the "Sale Transaction"). Following the closing of the Sale Transaction, the parties completed a recapitalization transaction on March 6, 2019 (the "Recapitalization"), pursuant to which Midwest Gaming used approximately $300.0 million in proceeds from amended and extended credit facilities to redeem, on a pro rata basis, additional Midwest Gaming units held by High Plaines and Casino Investors. As a result of the Recapitalization, the Company's ownership of Midwest Gaming increased to 61.3%. High Plaines retained ownership of 36.0% of Midwest Gaming and Casino Investors retained ownership of 2.7% of Midwest Gaming. We also recognized a $103.2 million deferred tax liability and a corresponding increase in our investment in unconsolidated affiliates related to an entity we acquired in conjunction with our acquisition of the Clairvest ownership stake in Midwest Gaming. Refer to Note 14, Investments in and Advances to Unconsolidated Affiliates, for further information on the Midwest Gaming transactions. Turfway Park Acquisition The Company completed the acquisition of Turfway Park from Jack Entertainment LLC ("JACK") and Hard Rock International (“Hard Rock”) on October 9, 2019 for total consideration of $46.0 million in cash ("Turfway Park Acquisition"). Turfway Park is located on 197 acres in Florence, Kentucky. On July 28, 2020, the Company's Board of Directors approved the final design plans for the HRM and grandstand facility at Turfway Park. The final plans reflect a project capital of $200.0 million, which includes the Turfway Park Acquisition costs and other previously approved capital. The 155,000 square foot facility will include a grandstand, sports bar, food offerings, and up to 1,200 historical racing machines. The Turfway Park facility is expected to open in the fourth quarter of 2021. Refer to Note 4, Acquisitions, for further information on the Turfway Park Acquisition. The Company has announced plans and has begun to invest up to $38.4 million for an extension of Turfway Park, to be located in Newport, Kentucky, which will include a simulcast area including a separate VIP simulcast room, a 17,000 square foot gaming floor with 500 historical racing machines and a feature bar. The Company plans to open the extension in the fourth quarter of 2020. Seasonality Churchill Downs Due to the seasonal nature of our live racing business at Churchill Downs Racetrack, revenue and operating results for any interim quarter are generally not indicative of the revenues and operating results for the year and may not be comparable with results for the corresponding period of the previous year. Historically, the majority of our live racing revenue occurs during the second quarter with the running of the Kentucky Derby and Kentucky Oaks. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company rescheduled the 146th Kentucky Oaks and Kentucky Derby from May 1, 2020 and May 2, 2020 to September 4, 2020 and September 5, 2020, respectively.
