Property EBITDA and Adjusted EPS from Continuing Operations are not Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) measurements but are commonly used in the gaming industry as measures of performance and as bases for valuation of gaming companies. In addition, analysts’ per-share earnings estimates for gaming companies are comparable to Adjusted EPS from Continuing Operations. Reconciliations of Adjusted EPS from Continuing Operations to GAAP EPS and Property EBITDA to income from operations are attached to this release.
On a GAAP basis, third-quarter income from operations was $577.2 million, compared with $441.9 million in the year-ago quarter. Net income was $244.4 million, up 37.9 percent from $177.2 million in the 2006 third quarter. Diluted earnings per share from continuing operations were $1.16, an increase of 20.8 percent from the 96 cents achieved in the year-ago quarter.
Third-quarter highlights
| • | | Harrah’s Entertainment announced a $1 billion expansion and renovation of Caesars Palace in Las Vegas that will include construction of a 665-room hotel tower and a 263,000-square-foot meeting and convention center, as well as enhancements to the resort’s 512-room Forum Tower. The project will increase the room and suite offering at Caesars Palace to 4,013 from 3,348 when completed in 2009. |
| • | | Harrah’s and AEG, developer of entertainment venues such as STAPLES Center in Los Angeles, unveiled plans for a privately financed, 20,000-seat, state-of-the-art sports and entertainment arena on acreage currently owned by Harrah’s near the center of the Las Vegas Strip. The arena is expected to open in 2010. |
| • | | Harrah’s has acquired Macau Orient Golf, an 18-hole golf course on 175 acres on Cotai directly adjacent to the Lotus Bridge, one of two border crossings into Macau from China. Harrah’s plans improvements that will make Macau Orient Golf one of the most authentic links-style courses in the Pearl River Delta. |
| • | | Poker players from 33 countries competed in the first annual World Series of Poker Europe Presented by Betfair.com, which ended September 16 with Norway’s Annette Obrestad collecting a Main Event first prize of more than $2 million. The WSOP Europe ended at the Company’s Casino at the Empire in London just two months after the completion of the 38th annual World Series of Poker in Las Vegas, which attracted more than 54,000 entrants. |
Shortly after the end of the third quarter, Grand Casino Resort Tunica announced a strategic alliance with Food Network star Paula Deen and a $45 million renovation of the property, which will be rebranded Harrah’s Casino Tunica once the upgrades are completed next year.

Las Vegas Region properties include Harrah's Las Vegas, Rio, Bally's Las Vegas, Paris, Flamingo Las Vegas, Caesars Palace, Imperial Palace and Bill's Gamblin' Hall & Saloon.
The Company’s multi-property visitation strategy, coupled with robust visitor volume, high occupancy rates and improved yields, led to record results for the 2007 third quarter and nine months, continuing the strong momentum established during the first half of the year. The region also benefited from the addition of results from Bill’s Gamblin’ Hall & Saloon, which was acquired in the first quarter of 2007.

Atlantic City Region properties include Harrah's Atlantic City, Showboat Atlantic City, Caesars Atlantic City, Bally's Atlantic City and Harrah's Chester.
Effective marketing led to margin improvements and more stable results at Harrah’s properties in Atlantic City, a market that has struggled with competition from new slot operations in neighboring states, new smoking restrictions and high marketing costs. Construction continued on the new 960-room hotel tower that is expected to open in the 2008 second quarter as part of a $550 million upgrade and expansion of Harrah’s Atlantic City. A strong third-quarter performance at Harrah’s Chester Casino and Racetrack, which opened its slot operations in early first quarter 2007, helped the region’s results.

Property EBITDA | | | 92.8 | | | 96.0 | | -3.3 | % | | | 265.8 | | | 265.1 | | 0.3 | % |
Louisiana/Mississippi Region properties include Harrah's New Orleans, Horseshoe Bossier City, Louisiana Downs, Horseshoe Tunica, Grand Casino Tunica, Sheraton Tunica and Grand Casino Biloxi.
Weak third-quarter revenues at Grand Casino Tunica, which will undergo an extensive renovation and re-branding over the next 12 months, impacted results from the Louisiana/Mississippi Region. Third-quarter income from operations included $61.1 million of income from insurance proceeds in excess of the net book value of impacted assets and reimbursable costs and expenses. Property EBITDA results exclude certain non-recurring items, including insurance proceeds related to 2005 hurricane claims.
Revenues were higher in the first nine months of 2007 due to contributions from Harrah’s New Orleans as well as Grand Casino Biloxi, which was closed for much of the prior-year period due to storm damage. Nine-month income from operations for 2007 included $116.9 million of insurance proceeds in excess of the net book value of impacted assets and reimbursable costs and expenses.

Property EBITDA | | | 59.7 | | | 53.7 | | 11.2 | % | | | 169.5 | | | 162.4 | | 4.4 | % |
Iowa/Missouri Region properties include Harrah's St. Louis, Harrah's Council Bluffs, Horseshoe Council Bluffs and Harrah's North Kansas City.
Third-quarter and nine-month revenues were essentially even with those of the prior-year periods, while Property EBITDA rose 11.2 percent in the 2007 third quarter due primarily to cost reductions.

Income from operations | | | 57.7 | | | 56.3 | | 2.5 | % | | | 158.9 | | | 172.7 | | -8.0 | % |
Property EBITDA | | | 69.7 | | | 72.9 | | -4.4 | % | | | 204.1 | | | 216.3 | | -5.6 | % |
Illinois/Indiana Region properties include Horseshoe Hammond, Harrah's Joliet, Harrah's Metropolis and Caesars Indiana.
Combined revenues increased in this region from the 2006 third-quarter, but Property EBITDA fell 4.4 percent due in part to a supplemental 3 percent tax assessed by Illinois since July 2006. The company’s new, two-level vessel at Horseshoe Hammond is expected to open in the second half of 2008, pending all requisite regulatory approvals.
Revenues for the first nine months of 2007 rose, but income from operations was lower than in the 2006 period due primarily to the 3 percent tax assessed by Illinois against certain gaming operations. Earlier this year, an Illinois court declared the tax unconstitutional, but the Company continues to accrue and pay the tax in accordance with the court’s instructions pending final resolution of the case.

Property EBITDA | | | 50.0 | | | 54.5 | | -8.3 | % | | | 117.4 | | | 130.0 | | -9.7 | % |
Other Nevada properties include Harrah's Reno, Harrah's Lake Tahoe, Harvey's Lake Tahoe, Bill's Casino and Harrah's Laughlin.
Early summer wildfires in the Lake Tahoe area and continued weakness in visitor volumes led to a 3.8 percent decline in third-quarter revenues and an 8.3 percent drop in Property EBITDA for the Other Nevada Region. Poor ski conditions in the first half of 2007 also contributed to reduced nine-month results.

Managed, international and other results include income from our managed properties, results of our international properties and certain marketing and administrative expenses, including development costs, and income from our non-consolidated subsidiaries.
The gains in this category were due primarily to addition of results from the London Clubs International properties acquired by the Company in the 2006 fourth quarter and lower master-planning and development costs.
Other items
Third-quarter and nine-month corporate expenses declined from the year-ago periods due
to corporate cost reductions, the allocation of a portion of the Company’s stock-based compensation expenses to individual property units and lower development costs.
Interest expense rose in the 2007 third quarter and first nine months due to higher debt levels associated with acquisitions, higher interest rates and declines of $25.2 million and $10.8 million for the third quarter and first nine months, respectively, in the aggregate fair value of the company’s interest-rate swaps. Other income of $23 million was due primarily to a gain on the sale of a corporate aircraft.
The effective tax rate, which includes federal and state income taxes, for the third quarter was 38.4 percent, compared with 35.1 percent in the year-ago period.
Discontinued operations for the 2007 third quarter and first nine months reflect insurance proceeds of $22.5 million, after taxes, and $82.6 million, after taxes, respectively, that are in excess of the net book value of the impacted assets and accumulated costs and expenses expected to be reimbursed under the Company’s insurance claims for Harrah’s Lake Charles and Grand Casino Gulfport, both of which were sold in 2006. Pursuant to the terms of the sales agreements, Harrah’s will retain all insurance proceeds related to these properties.
Weighted average common and common equivalent shares outstanding for the third quarter were 190.7 million shares, up from 186.3 million in the 2006 third quarter.

(a) | Property EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) consists of Income from operations before depreciation and amortization, write-downs, reserves and recoveries, project opening costs, corporate expense, merger and integration costs, income/(losses) on interests in non-consolidated affiliates and amortization of intangible assets. Property EBITDA is a supplemental financial measure used by management, as well as industry analysts, to evaluate our operations. However, Property EBITDA should not be construed as an alternative to Income from operations (as an indicator of our operating performance) or to Cash flows from operating activities (as a measure of liquidity) as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. All companies do not calculate EBITDA in the same manner. As a result, Property EBITDA as presented by our Company may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies. |
