PINNACLE ENTERTAINMENT REPORTS STRONG SECOND QUARTER 2005 RESULTS
L’Auberge du Lac Profitable in First Five Weeks of Operation
LAS VEGAS, August 2, 2005 – Pinnacle Entertainment, Inc. (NYSE:PNK) today reported strong financial results for the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2005, which reflect the opening of L’Auberge du Lac, the Company’s $365 million casino resort located in Lake Charles, LA.
“We are very pleased by the smooth opening of L’Auberge du Lac,” said Daniel R. Lee, Chairman and CEO of Pinnacle Entertainment, Inc. “L’Auberge has exceeded our expectations for these first several weeks for both customer acceptance and profitability. As at any new resort, marketing and other costs are still high and we are still building our customer and players’ club lists. We incurred a great deal of overtime pay in meeting the initial customer demand and have been hiring additional people in certain job categories since opening. The L’Auberge team is learning every day how to operate the property even better and provide excellent customer service to large numbers of people. As the team becomes more efficient and more people in the region recognize the quality of the L’Auberge experience, we expect the property to mature into one of the gaming industry’s most successful regional properties.
“Meanwhile, the remainder of our company, most notably Belterra and Boomtown New Orleans, also had a strong quarter.”
For the second quarter, revenues rose 25.1% to $175.0 million from $139.9 million a year earlier. Adjusted EBITDA(1) increased 32.8% to $36.1 million from $27.1 million for the prior-year period. The Company’s adjusted EBITDA(1) margin improved to 20.6% in the quarter from 19.4% in the year-earlier quarter. Excluding L´Auberge du Lac, the Company´s revenues rose 4.1% and adjusted EBITDA increased 3.9%. EBITDA margin excluding L´Auberge du Lac was 19.4% in the recent quarter.
Adjusted net income(1) for the quarter was $9.9 million, or $0.23 per share, compared to adjusted net income of $1.4 million, or $0.04 per share, for the second quarter of 2004. On a GAAP (‘Generally Accepted Accounting Principles’) basis, the Company reported a net loss of $4.2 million, or $0.10 per share, due to preopening costs, which consisted principally of the hiring, training and opening-related costs at L´Auberge du Lac. This compared to the 2004 quarter net income of $15.7 million, or $0.43 per diluted share, which included a large land-sale gain.

Six-Month Results
Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2005 increased 14.8% to $314.8 million from $274.2 million. Adjusted EBITDA increased 23.8% to $63.1 million from $51.0 million in the prior-year six-month period. The adjusted EBITDA margin increased to 20.0% in the period, compared to 18.6% for the first half of 2004. Excluding L´Auberge du Lac, revenues increased 4.1%, adjusted EBITDA increased 8.4% and the adjusted EBITDA margin reached 19.4%.
Adjusted net income for the first half of 2005 was $13.2 million, or $0.31 per diluted share, compared to adjusted net income of $1.1 million, or $0.03 per diluted share, for the six months ended June 30, 2004. On a GAAP basis, the Company reported a net loss of $6.4 million, or $0.16 per share, compared with net income of $17.2 million, or $0.49 per share, for the 2004 six-month period. The recent period´s GAAP income included large preopening expenses, principally related to L´Auberge du Lac, while the year-ago period included two large land-sale gains.
“In addition to our opening at L’Auberge du Lac during the second quarter, we recently opened our replacement casino facility in Neuquen, Argentina. We believe the new Casino Magic – Neuquen will be the center of entertainment in the region,” Mr. Lee continued. “We also completed our refurbishment in Biloxi, and made progress on our plans for two casinos in St. Louis.”
Recent highlights include:
| • | | Following its initial public opening on May 26, L’Auberge du Lac hosted a grand opening customer party on July 16, featuring both comedian Jay Leno and entertainer Lionel Richie as surprise guests. Invited guests from Houston, New Orleans and surrounding areas enjoyed the lush tropical pool area, championship golf course, full-service spa and specialty restaurants, as well as the very comfortable, 24-hour casino floor. |
| • | | On July 27, the Company opened its replacement facility in Neuquen, Argentina. The new facility includes a larger casino, restaurant, and an entertainment venue on land owned by the Company approximately one mile from the former leased facility. The facility was completed approximately on its budget of some US$15 million. |
| • | | In July, the Company submitted various plans and specifications for the St. Louis City project as stipulated by the development agreement. The Company anticipates selecting the project general contractor within 30 days and beginning construction in the fourth quarter. The Company anticipates completing the purchase of the 297-suite Embassy Suites Hotel in the third quarter as well as exercising its option to lease 4.3 acres of land in the Laclede’s Landing area. When combined with land the Company already owns or has under option to lease, the Company will control approximately 18 acres of contiguous land for development of this St. Louis City project. |
| • | | On May 25, the Company obtained several key approvals from the Missouri Gaming Commission regarding its Lemay casino project in south St. Louis County. Among other things, the Commission unanimously approved the location of the casino portion of the Lemay project and the Company’s request for permanent docking at the site. The Company is preparing its design plans for the project, as well as pursuing both the required environmental review and the road access requirements. The Company expects to begin remediation of the County site in August. |

Property Highlights
Belterra Casino Resort
Belterra Casino Resort was the lead performer in the quarter for the Company, achieving adjusted EBITDA of $10.7 million, up 43.7% from the $7.4 million reported in the 2004 second quarter. Revenues in the 2005 period rose to $42.6 million from $39.1 million in the 2004 period. With casino and hotel revenue gains from the May 2004 opening of the new guestroom tower and operating efficiency, Belterra’s adjusted EBITDA margin increased by 6.0 percentage points to 25.0% from 19.0%.
Boomtown New Orleans
Boomtown New Orleans reported adjusted EBITDA of $8.1 million for the 2005 second quarter versus $7.9 million in the prior-year quarter. Revenues for the period grew to $28.6 million from $26.9 million, primarily due to increased slot revenue from improved slot product mix and marketing programs.
L’Auberge du Lac
Revenue and adjusted EBITDA of $29.4 million and $7.9 million, respectively, for L’Auberge du Lac reflect operating results for the first 36 days of operation, including opening the Thursday before Memorial Day weekend. Positive adjusted EBITDA was achieved despite large amounts of overtime expended to meet customer demand with a largely inexperienced workforce. The property’s pool area also was not open until early July, and its Tom Fazio championship golf course is not expected to open to the public until late August. The golf course is currently available only to invited casino guests.
The property’s high-end Villa suites did not open until early July. The 22 second-floor suites (named the Versailles and Palais suites) are the second most deluxe accommodations on the property (after the Villa suites) and are not expected to be put into service until August. The property opened with 605 guestrooms available on May 26 and had 713 guestrooms available at the end of the quarter. Of the 25,166 available room-nights in the quarter, some 89% were occupied.
The adjusted EBITDA referred to above does not include the $15.9 million of pre-opening costs related to L’Auberge du Lac in the quarter. These costs principally involved hiring and training the workforce prior to opening and a major advertising campaign that surrounded the opening activities. Pre-opening costs were part of the project’s overall $365 million budget. Of the $28.2 million of cumulative pre-opening costs, some $10.8 million was spent on marketing activities. Another $2.3 million of marketing expense was incurred after the opening and was subtracted in reaching the above adjusted EBITDA figure.
Boomtown Bossier City
Results for Boomtown Bossier City reflect the continued competitive Bossier City/Shreveport gaming market, including the effect of Native American gaming in Oklahoma. Adjusted EBITDA of $4.9 million was flat in the quarter compared to the prior-year period, despite reduced revenues of $23.5 million compared to $25.1 million in the prior-year period. Operating cost efficiencies increased the adjusted EBITDA margin to 20.7% from 19.7%.
Casino Magic Biloxi
Late in the quarter, Casino Magic Biloxi completed the $11 million casino enhancement project begun in 2004, which included substantially refurbishing the existing showroom and casino and updating the existing slot product. Revenues rose for the 2005 quarter despite the construction disruption, to $21.6 million compared to $20.9 million, while adjusted EBITDA was $4.1 million compared to $4.7 million.
3
Boomtown Reno
As has been the trend at Boomtown Reno for the past several quarters, lower-margin fuel sales have offset the higher-margin casino revenues. Casino revenues have been declining principally due to competition from large Native American casinos in California. Revenues and adjusted EBITDA for the 2005 second quarter were $22.7 million and $2.8 million, respectively, compared to the prior-year results of $22.3 million and $3.7 million, respectively. The Company continues to make progress with Cabela’s Retail, Inc. for the development of approximately 39 acres of land adjacent to the hotel and casino facility.
Casino Magic Argentina
Casino Magic Argentina continues to improve its operations compared to the prior-year quarter, with adjusted EBITDA of $2.1 million compared to $1.9 million, and revenues of $4.7 million compared to $3.9 million. The Company anticipates operating results will improve further with the recent opening of the replacement casino in Neuquen.
Other Items
Corporate costs for the second quarter ended June 30, 2005 were $6.2 million and compared to $5.0 million in the prior-year period, primarily due to litigation and other reserve increases, as well as continued growth of the Company.
Pre-opening and Development Costs. During the quarter, the Company incurred $17.4 million of pre-opening and development costs, primarily for the Lake Charles project and the St. Louis development opportunities, as compared to $2.5 million primarily for the same projects in the prior-year period.
Gain on Sale of Assets. In June 2004, the Company recorded a gain of $29.2 million in connection with the sale of the remaining 60 acres of surplus land in southern California for approximately $36 million. There was no similar gain in the 2005 second quarter.
Interest Expense, Net. Interest expense for the second quarter before capitalized interest declined to $13.7 million compared to $14.3 million in the prior-year period, due primarily to lower average cost of debt capital. Capitalized interest for the three months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004 was $3.4 million and $0.9 million, respectively, reflecting the Company’s investment to date in L’Auberge du Lac.
Income Tax Expense/ Benefit. The effective tax rates for the three months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004 were 18.8% and 46.2%, respectively, resulting in a tax benefit of $1.0 million for the 2005 period and a tax expense of $13.5 million for the 2004 period. The lower-than-statutory rate in the 2005 period is due to non-deductible expenses and foreign taxes paid in Argentina.
Community Contribution
Pinnacle pays significant taxes in the communities in which it operates. In the first six months, Pinnacle paid or accrued $69.8 million in gaming taxes, $7.7 million in payroll taxes, $3.6 million in property taxes, and $1.9 million in sales taxes. Setting aside income taxes, Pinnacle paid or accrued $83.0 million for taxes to state and local authorities in the first half of 2005 as compared to $73.5 million in 2004.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
(1) Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin and adjusted net income (loss) are non-GAAP measurements. The Company defines adjusted EBITDA as earnings before interest expense and income, provision for income taxes, depreciation, amortization, loss on early extinguishment of debt, pre-opening and development costs and gain on asset sales; and defines adjusted EBITDA margin as adjusted EBITDA divided by revenues (adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted EBITDA margin are collectively referred to as the ‘Adjusted EBITDA Measures’). The Company defines adjusted net income (loss) as net income (loss) before pre-opening and development costs, gain on asset sales and loss on early extinguishment of debt. Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net income (loss) are not measures of financial performance under the promulgations of the accounting profession known as GAAP.
Management uses the Adjusted EBITDA Measures to analyze the performance of the Company’s business segments. The Adjusted EBITDA Measures are relevant in evaluating large, long-lived hotel casino projects because they provide a perspective on the current effects of operating decisions separated from the substantial, non-operational depreciation charges, financing costs and other non-routine costs of such projects. Additionally, management believes some investors consider the Adjusted EBITDA Measures to be useful measures in determining a company’s ability to service or incur indebtedness and for estimating a company’s underlying cash flow from operations before capital costs, taxes, capital expenditures and other non-routine costs. Certain of the Adjusted EBITDA Measures, subject to certain adjustments, are also measures used in debt covenants in the Company’s debt agreements.
Unlike net income, the Adjusted EBITDA Measures do not include depreciation or interest expense and therefore do not reflect past, current or future capital expenditures or the cost of capital. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA Measures as only one of several comparative tools, together with GAAP measurements, to assist in the evaluation of operating performance and to measure cash flow generated by ongoing operations. Such GAAP measurements include operating income (loss), net income (loss), cash flow from operations and cash flow data.
The Adjusted EBITDA Measures and adjusted net income (loss) are not calculated in the same manner by all companies and, accordingly, may not be appropriate measures of comparing performance amongst different companies. See the attached “supplemental information” tables for a reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA to operating income and net income (loss) and for a reconciliation of GAAP net income (loss) to adjusted net income (loss).
Adjusted net income (loss) is presented solely as a supplemental disclosure as this is how the Company reviews and analyzes the performance of its core operating business, excluding the effects of the non-routine items listed above. For many of the same reasons mentioned above relating to the Adjusted EBITDA Measures, management believes adjusted net income (loss) is a useful analytic tool as it enables management to track the performance of its core casino operating business separate and apart from factors which do not impact decisions affecting its operating casino properties, such as sales of surplus land or costs associated with the Company’s development activities. Adjusted net income (loss) does not include the costs of the Company’s development activities, asset sale gains or the costs of its refinancing activities, but the Company compensates for these limitations by using adjusted net income (loss) as only one analytic tool, together with GAAP measurements such as net income (loss) and operating income (loss), to assist in evaluating the performance of its business. Additionally, management believes adjusted net income (loss) is useful to investors since the adjustments provide a measure of performance that more closely resembles widely used measures of performance in the gaming industry and principal bases for the valuation of gaming companies.

Company’s new development opportunities and anticipated construction schedules and costs, are based on management’s current expectations and are subject to risks, uncertainties and changes in circumstances that could significantly affect future results. Accordingly, Pinnacle Entertainment cautions that the forward-looking statements contained herein are qualified by important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those reflected by such statements.
