Caesars Entertainment Reports Strong Financial Results for the Second Quarter of 2018

Launches Sports Betting in New Jersey in Partnership with Scientific Games Digital

Continues to Execute Against Growth Strategy with Closing of Centaur Acquisition

LAS VEGAS, August 1, 2018 - Caesars Entertainment Corporation (NASDAQ: CZR) (“CEC,” “Caesars,” “Caesars Entertainment,” or the “Company”) today reported second quarter of 2018 results as summarized in the discussion below, which highlights certain GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures on a consolidated basis.

Second Quarter Highlights

• Second quarter net revenues increased $1.11 billion, from $1.01 billion to $2.12 billion, due to the inclusion of the results of CEOC, LLC (“CEOC”), which emerged from bankruptcy in the fourth quarter of 2017.

• Net income improved $1,461 million, from a net loss of $1,432 million to net income of $29 million, due to restructuring charges in the prior year.

• CEC subsidiary executed a $1 billion one year forward interest rate swap, increasing its fixed debt percentage to 60%.

Same-Store Highlights

• Same-store net revenues improved 2.8%, or $57 million, from $2.06 billion to $2.12 billion.

• Same-store adjusted EBITDAR increased 13.1% or $72 million, from $551 million to $623 million, driven by revenue growth in gaming and hospitality, and operating cost reduction.

• Same-store adjusted EBITDAR margin expanded 270 basis points to 29.4%.

• Las Vegas RevPAR increased 3.5% to $136, within the Company’s guidance range. Las Vegas ADR increased $7 to $145.

• Marketing costs decreased 6.6%, or $34 million, including $25 million of contra-revenue, reflecting the Company’s continued focus in this area.

“We delivered solid second quarter results, led by strong gaming and hospitality performance in Las Vegas, where we have completed renovating 60% of our 23,000 hotel rooms since 2014. The results also reflect balanced, robust cost management and growth strategies,” said Mark Frissora, President & Chief Executive Officer. “Caesars remains positioned for sustained revenue and EBITDAR growth, and starting this quarter we begin to realize the benefits of the Centaur acquisition, which closed on July 16th, and new sports betting businesses in New Jersey and Mississippi.”

“Our strong operating performance and growth initiatives support a robust free cash flow profile, which positions the company well for sustained growth in the coming quarters and years,” added Eric Hession, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. “We are committed to maintaining our strong balance sheet and to executing on our disciplined capital allocation strategy to maximize value for shareholders.”

Basis of Presentation

In accordance with U.S. GAAP, the results of CEOC and certain of its U.S. subsidiaries were not consolidated with Caesars from January 15, 2015 until October 6, 2017. Additionally, Caesars deconsolidated the results of its Horseshoe Baltimore property in the third quarter of 2017. Note that certain additional non-GAAP financial measures have been added to highlight the results of the Company including CEOC. “Same-Store” results reported herein include CEOC as if its results were consolidated during all periods, but remove the deconsolidated Horseshoe Baltimore property from all periods presented. See the tables at the end of this press release for the reconciliation of non-GAAP to GAAP presentations. GAAP and same-store results include Caesars Acquisition Company (“CAC”) for all periods presented because CEC’s merger with CAC was accounted for as a reorganization of entities under common control. The intent of the same-store information is to illustrate certain comparable results based on the current consolidation structure. For same-store result reconciliations by region, see the historical information supplement in the Investor Relations section of www.caesars.com.

We also adopted ASC 606: Revenue from Contracts with Customers, effective January 1, 2018, using the full retrospective method, which requires the Company to recast each prior reporting period presented consistent with the new standard.

Financial Results

We view each casino property as an operating segment and aggregate such casino properties into three regionally-focused reportable segments: (i) Las Vegas, (ii) Other U.S. and (iii) All Other, which is consistent with how we manage the business. The results of our reportable segments presented below are consistent with the way management assesses these results and allocates resources, which is a consolidated view that adjusts for the effect of certain transactions between reportable segments within Caesars. “All Other” includes managed, international and other properties as well as parent and other adjustments to reconcile to consolidated Caesars results.

¹ See the Reconciliation of Net Income/(Loss) Attributable to Caesars Entertainment Corporation to Adjusted EBITDAR, which includes a reconciliation for Same-Store net revenues and adjusted EBITDAR.

** Percentage is not meaningful.

The inclusion of CEOC’s results increased CEC net revenues by $1.11 billion. The year-over-year comparison is not meaningful due to the magnitude of consolidating CEOC’s portfolio.

Same-store net revenues improved 2.8%, driven by strength in Las Vegas. Las Vegas gaming revenue increased 10.7%, led by significant year-over-year baccarat growth. Las Vegas ADR and RevPAR grew 5.2% and 3.5%, respectively, driving year-over-year non-gaming revenue improvement. Las Vegas occupancy was 93.9% in the quarter, down from 95.5% in 2017, primarily due to 36,000 incremental room nights available. A work stoppage at Caesars Windsor temporarily lowered reimbursed management cost revenue, driving the 8.8% decline in All Other regional revenue. Hold had a favorable impact of $8 million compared to the prior year and was $21 million above our expectations.

** Percentage is not meaningful.

Same-store adjusted EBITDAR improved 13.1%, led by revenue growth and margin expansion in the Las Vegas and Other U.S. regions. Las Vegas gaming and hospitality performance, and regional marketing and labor efficiency improvements were the primary drivers. Second quarter marketing efficiency, which measures marketing costs as a percentage of gross revenue, reached an all-time best for CEC. Corporate costs associated with system implementations and optimization, and $4 million of unfavorable hold at our international properties drove the $4 million decline in the All Other region. Hold had a favorable impact of $7 million compared to the prior year and was $15 million above our expectation.

CAESARS ENTERTAINMENT CORPORATION

SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION

RECONCILIATION OF NET INCOME/(LOSS) ATTRIBUTABLE TO CAESARS ENTERTAINMENT CORPORATION TO ADJUSTED EBITDAR

Property earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and rent (“EBITDAR”) is presented as a measure of the Company’s performance. Property EBITDAR is defined as revenues less property operating expenses and is comprised of net income/(loss) before (i) interest expense, including finance obligation expenses, net of interest capitalized and interest income, (ii) income tax provision, (iii) depreciation and amortization, (iv) corporate expenses, (v) certain items that the Company does not consider indicative of its ongoing operating performance at an operating property level, and (vi) lease payments associated with our financing obligation.

In evaluating property EBITDAR you should be aware that, in the future, the Company may incur expenses that are the same or similar to some of the adjustments in this presentation. The presentation of Property EBITDAR should not be construed as an inference that future results will be unaffected by unusual or unexpected items.

Property EBITDAR is a non-GAAP financial measure commonly used in our industry and should not be construed as an alternative to net income/(loss) as an indicator of operating performance or as an alternative to cash flow provided by operating activities as a measure of liquidity (as determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP” or “U.S. GAAP”)). Property EBITDAR may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies within the industry. Property EBITDAR is included because management uses property EBITDAR to measure performance and allocate resources, and believes that property EBITDAR provides investors with additional information consistent with that used by management.

Adjusted EBITDAR is defined as EBITDAR further adjusted to exclude certain non-cash and other items as exhibited in the following reconciliation, and is presented as a supplemental measure of the Company’s performance. Management believes that adjusted EBITDAR provides investors with additional information and allows a better understanding of the results of operational activities separate from the financial impact of decisions made for the long-term benefit of the Company. In addition, compensation of management is in part determined by reference to certain of such financial information. As a result, we believe this supplemental information is useful to investors who are trying to understand the results of the Company.

Adjusted EBITDAR margin is calculated as adjusted EBITDAR divided by net revenues. Adjusted EBITDAR margin is included because management uses adjusted EBITDAR margin to measure performance and allocate resources, and believes that adjusted EBITDAR margin provides investors with additional information consistent with that used by management.

Because not all companies use identical calculations, the presentation of adjusted EBITDAR and adjusted EBITDAR margin may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.

The following tables reconcile net income/(loss) attributable to the companies presented to property EBITDAR and adjusted EBITDAR for the periods indicated.
