Second-Quarter Commentary
Caesars Entertainment’s 2011 second-quarter revenues increased 0.4 percent to $2,229.1 million from $2,220.7 million in the 2010 second quarter despite an overall decline in visitation and the temporary closures of five of our properties in the Illinois/Indiana and Louisiana/Mississippi regions due to flooding. The increase was attributable to higher spend from our most loyal customers as well as growth in hotel revenue, most notably in the Las Vegas market.
Income from operations for the second quarter 2011 was $252.1 million, compared with a loss from operations of $0.3 million in 2010. The loss from operations in 2010 included impairment charges related to goodwill and other non-amortizing intangible assets of $100.0 million. Prior to consideration of the 2010 impairment charges, income from operations increased in the second quarter 2011 to $252.1 million, compared with $99.7 million for the 2010 second quarter. The increase was due to reduced property operating expenses resulting from the company’s cost-reduction efforts and reduced and more focused marketing expenditures. Additionally, we recorded charges during the second quarter 2010, with no comparable amounts in 2011, for $52.2 million to fully reserve a note-receivable balance related to a venture for development of a casino project in Philadelphia, and $25.0 million relating to a previously disclosed contingency. These charges are reported for 2010 within project opening costs and other items within our Consolidated Summary of Operations.
Net loss attributable to Caesars Entertainment Corporation for the second quarter 2011 was $155.5 million, compared with $274.0 million for the year-ago quarter. Net loss attributable to Caesars Entertainment Corporation included gains related to the early extinguishment of debt of $14.7 million ($9.5 million, net of taxes) and $18.7 million ($12.1 million, net of taxes) for the second quarter 2011 and 2010, respectively.
First-Half Commentary
Caesars Entertainment’s 2011 first-half revenues were flat compared to the same period in 2010. The Company experienced reduced visitation by rated players and the temporary closures of seven properties in the Illinois/Indiana and Louisiana/Mississippi regions due to flooding and severe weather conditions, the effects of which were offset by increased customer spend per trip and the full six-month impact of Planet Hollywood Las Vegas, which was acquired in February 2010.
Income from operations for the first half of 2011 was $465.7 million, compared with $225.5 million for 2010. Included in income from operations for 2010 were impairment charges related to goodwill and other non-amortizing intangible assets of $100.0 million. Prior to consideration of the 2010 impairment charges, income from operations increased to $465.7 million for the first half of 2011, compared with income from operations of $325.5 million for the first half 2010. The increase was attributable to the effect of the second quarter 2010 charges described above, reduced property operating expenses resulting from the company’s cost-reduction efforts, reduced and more focused marketing expenditures, increased rated-player spend per trip, and improving fundamentals in Las Vegas.
Net loss attributable to Caesars Entertainment Corporation for first half 2011was $302.9 million, compared with $469.6 million for the same period in 2010. Net loss attributable to Caesars Entertainment Corporation included gains related to the early extinguishment of debt of $47.9 million ($30.5 million, net of taxes), and losses related to the early extinguishment of debt of $28.7 million ($18.1 million, net of taxes) for the first half 2011 and 2010, respectively.
Management Commentary
“In 2008, we began implementing a series of structural and operational refinements designed to streamline our operating structure, strengthen our balance sheet, enhance our marketing effectiveness and improve our ability to act on growth opportunities,” Loveman said. “Those activities accelerated as the recession deepened, resulting in substantial cost savings, greater financial flexibility and capital-efficient, high-return investments. The changes we’ve made, coupled with improved spend-per-trip fundamentals and overall improvements in Las Vegas, were largely responsible for our best quarterly gains in three years. We are continuing to implement programmatic initiatives to improve our efficiency and flexibility, which should serve us well when the economy improves.
“In the second quarter, we achieved the highest customer-satisfaction scores in the company’s history, thanks to improved service delivery and optimized reinvestment,” he said. “We saw the successful launch of TR Marketplace, which allows Total Rewards cardholders to earn reward credits from more than 500 retailers nationwide.
“We were especially pleased and honored with the seven-year management-contract extension we signed during the quarter with the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians,” Loveman said. “And despite turmoil in the poker community created by federal indictments of online poker sites catering to U.S. players, the 58-event World Series of Poker drew a record number of participants and generated a record prize pool of more than $190 million.

“We continued to move ahead with promising development projects,” Loveman said. “Construction progressed toward completion by December of 662 rooms in the Octavius Tower at Caesars Palace. Also in Las Vegas, we made significant progress in the planning and design of the LINQ retail, dining and entertainment experience. In Ohio, the tax and regulatory agreement with Gov. Kasich has allowed us to resume construction of the Cleveland and Cincinnati casino projects with Rock Gaming that are expected to open in the first quarter of 2012 and the second quarter of 2013, respectively. We are also working to develop additional potential casino opportunities domestically and abroad.
“The introduction of further precision in our marketing systems such as our PRISM real-time slot marketing technology was a second-quarter focal point,” he said. “Following an increase in marketing spend during the first half of 2010, the company began an empirical-learning process to refocus our customer reinvestment late last year. Year-over-year marketing spend was lower in the second quarter of 2011 than in the year-earlier quarter.
“We also progressed with efforts to redefine our operating structure,” Loveman said. “We believe this endeavor will create significant cost advantages that will be difficult for competitors of smaller size and scale to replicate. We also expect these efforts to produce a more streamlined decision-making process, allowing us to react more quickly to market and competitive changes.”
The Company measures its performance in part through tracking of trips by rated players and spend per rated-player trip. On a consolidated basis, trips by rated players in 2011 decreased 9.2 percent for the second quarter and 8.6 percent for the first half from the year-ago periods, while spend per rated-player trip increased 5.6 percent for the second quarter and 4.7 percent for the first half. The visitation declines were the result of temporary closures of five of our properties in the Illinois/Indiana and Louisiana/Mississippi regions during the second quarter due to flooding, as well as the impact of marketing programs on visitation frequency of certain customer segments. The visitation declines in the first half 2011 also included temporary closures of two other properties in the mentioned regions due to severe weather conditions. Cash average daily room rates saw an increase of 5.3 percent in the second quarter 2011 compared to the second quarter 2010 and 5.5 percent for the first half, and total occupancy percentages increased 3.3 and 3.5 percentage points for the second-quarter and first-half periods, respectively.
Caesars Entertainment has undertaken comprehensive cost-reduction efforts to right-size expenses with business levels. During the fourth quarter of 2010, the Company began a new initiative to reinvent certain aspects of its functional and operating units to streamline operations and gain significant further cost reductions. During the quarter and first half 2011, the Company realized cost savings of $86.2 million and $152.4 million, respectively, and has estimated cost savings yet to be realized of $161.4 million as of June 30, 2011.
As a substantial portion of the debt of Caesars Entertainment’s consolidated group is issued by Caesars Entertainment Operating Company, Inc. (CEOC), the Company believes it is meaningful to also provide information pertaining to the results of operations of CEOC. Company wide results for CEOC are provided below. CEOC’s Summary of Operations, Supplemental Information, and Reconciliation of Net Loss Attributable to Caesars Entertainment Operating Company, Inc. to Adjusted EBITDA and LTM EBITDA are on pages 17 through 23.

REGIONAL OPERATING RESULTS SUMMARY
To provide more meaningful information than would be possible on either a consolidated basis or an individual property basis, the Company’s casino properties have been grouped into regions to facilitate discussion of its operating results.
Las Vegas property visitation by rated players rose 0.2 percent for the second quarter 2011 and 4.1 percent for the first half 2011 from the year-ago periods, and the amount spent per rated-player trip in 2011 increased 9.2 percent for the second quarter and 5.3 percent for the first half. Hotel revenues increased in 2011 9.5 percent for the second quarter and 13.3 percent for the first half. Cash average daily room rates increased in 2011 6.5 percent and 7.0 percent and total occupancy percentages rose 3.6 and 4.0 percentage points for the second-quarter and first-half periods, respectively.
Atlantic City property visitation by the Company’s rated players decreased 4.1 percent for the second quarter 2011 and 4.9 percent for the first half 2011 from the year-ago periods, and the amount spent per rated-player trip in 2011 decreased 0.1 percent for the second quarter and 0.9 percent for the first half.
For the remainder of the Company’s United States markets, 2011 second-quarter visitation by rated players decreased 15.1 percent, while spend per rated-player trip increased 6.4 percent from 2010. In the first half 2011, visitation by rated players decreased 14.4 percent, while spend per rated-player trip increased 5.4 percent from 2010. Visitation declines in both periods were due largely to flood-related closures and the impact of more focused marketing.
Flooding of the Ohio and Mississippi Rivers during the second quarter of 2011 caused temporary closures of Horseshoe Southern Indiana, Horseshoe Tunica, Tunica Roadhouse, Harrah’s Tunica and Harrah’s Metropolis. Based on their locations and other factors, some properties were closed longer than others; however, all properties were reopened as of May 27, 2011. While the closures did contribute to the reduced revenues experienced in the affected regions, the overall financial impact on the Company’s results of operations for 2011 is insignificant, after taking into account insurance coverage. Costs incurred during the closures, as well as those in connection with restoring the affected properties to operating condition of approximately $29 million, have not been expensed, but instead have been recorded as a receivable from third-party insurance providers. The Company also expects to receive insurance recoveries for lost profits through business-interruption insurance, which will be recognized into income in the period in which settlements with insurers are finalized.
Further discussion of results by region follow:
LAS VEGAS REGION
Revenues increased 10.3 percent and 8.4 percent in the 2011 second quarter and first half, respectively, from the year-ago periods. Visitation was relatively flat for the 2011 second quarter and increased slightly for the first half, and this region experienced an increase in its customer gaming spend per trip of 9.2 percent and 5.3 percent, respectively. Revenues were also increased by higher total occupancy percentages and cash average daily room rates for both the 2011 second-quarter and first-half periods. These trends demonstrate strengthening fundamentals in the region. Revenues for the first half 2011 also include the full six-month impact of Planet Hollywood Las Vegas, which was acquired in February 2010. Income from operations for the 2011 second quarter and first half increased compared to the 2010 periods due to the income impact of increased revenues and improved operating margins due to a continued focus on effective cost management through the implementation of the Company’s efficiency projects. Included in 2010 second-quarter and first-half income from operations but not in Property EBITDA are increased levels of property remediation costs, which did not recur in the 2011 second-quarter and first-half periods.

ATLANTIC CITY REGION
The Atlantic City Region revenues continued to be affected by the ongoing difficult economic environment, competition from new casinos and the mid-2010 introduction of table games in the Pennsylvania market. As a result, 2011 second-quarter and first-half revenues were slightly lower than the prior year periods. Second-quarter and first-half 2011 income from operations increased due to reduced property operating expenses as a result of reduced and more focused marketing expenses, lower depreciation expense and reduced payroll-related and property-tax expenses.

LOUISIANA/MISSISSIPPI REGION
Revenues in the region decreased for the 2011 second quarter and first half from the 2010 periods, primarily due to the temporary closures of three properties in the region due to flooding. Included in the second-quarter and first-half 2010 income/(loss) from operations was an impairment charge of $51.0 million related to impairment of intangible assets at one of the region’s properties. Prior to the consideration of the 2010 impairment charges, income from operations and Property EBITDA for the second quarter and first half 2011 improved from the 2010 periods, as a result of insurance recovery receivables recorded during the second quarter 2011 which offset certain costs incurred during the closures and as a result of the flooding. The 2010 second quarter and first half results include a one-time rent adjustment paid to the City of New Orleans in the amount of $6.4 million.

OTHER NEVADA REGION
Second-quarter and first-half 2011 revenues for the region declined slightly from the 2010 periods due to lower guest visitation and lower customer spend per trip driven by increased competitive pressure. Included in the 2010 second-quarter and first-half loss from operations was an impairment charge of $49.0 million related to the impairment of intangible assets at one of the region’s properties. Income from operations before impairment charges and Property EBITDA were relatively flat as the effects from cost-savings initiatives were more than able to offset the income impact of revenue declines.

MANAGED AND INTERNATIONAL
Revenue increases during the second quarter 2011 were attributable to Thistledown Racetrack, which was acquired in July 2010, and increased visitation and customer spend per trip at the Company’s Uruguay property, offset by declines experienced by two properties in Egypt as a result of recent political uprisings. Turmoil in the region continues to impact the Egyptian properties’ income from operations and Property EBITDA.

OTHER ITEMS
In 2011, the Human Resources Committee of the Board of Directors adopted the Project Renewal Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) – a plan designed to incent the Company’s leadership to undertake the cost-savings initiatives proposed as part of a comprehensive program to streamline the Company’s operations that was launched in the fourth quarter of 2010. Under this Plan, the Company recorded $9.6 million and $11.6 million in expense for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively. Prior to the recording of expense under this Plan, Corporate expense declined by $2.3 million and $4.4 million for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2011, primarily as a result of the Company’s cost savings initiatives.
7
Interest expense increased $67.8 million and $49.7 million for the 2011 second quarter and first half, respectively, from the same periods in 2010 due primarily to changes in fair value of derivative instruments and additional amortization of deferred losses frozen in accumulated other comprehensive loss, partially offset by reduced interest from purchases of CMBS debt and lower fixed payment rates on outstanding swaps from the year-ago periods.
During the second quarter 2011, the Company recognized a pre-tax gain on early extinguishments of debt of $14.7 million, compared with a pre-tax gain on early extinguishments of debt of $18.7 million in the second quarter 2010. The gain in 2011 is a result of the April 2011 purchase of $50.0 million face value of CMBS Loans for $35.0 million, net of deferred financing costs. In June 2010, the Company purchased $46.6 million face value of CMBS Loans for $22.6 million, recognizing a net gain on the transaction of $23.3 million, and completed an offering which retired outstanding senior and senior subordinated notes and recorded a pre-tax loss of $4.6 million.
During the first-half of 2011, the Company recognized a pre-tax gain on early extinguishments of debt of $47.9 million, compared with a pre-tax loss on early extinguishments of debt of $28.7 million in the first-half of 2010. The gain in 2011 is the result of the March 2011 purchase of $108.1 million face value of CMBS Loans for $73.5 million net of deferred financing costs and the April 2011 purchase described above. The loss in 2010 is the result of a first-quarter charge to record an additional liability pursuant to the terms of an amendment under which the Company agreed to pay lenders selling CMBS loans during the fourth quarter 2009 an additional $47.4 million for their loans previously sold, offset by the net gain recorded in the second quarter 2010 as described above.
The Company’s second quarter 2011 effective tax rate benefit was approximately 39 percent, compared with an effective tax rate benefit of approximately 37 percent for the second quarter 2010. The increase in the benefit was primarily due to effects of state income taxes and federal tax credits, partially offset by the impact of nondeductible expenses and accrued interest on prior years’ uncertain tax positions.
| (1) | Property EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization), Adjusted EBITDA and income from operations before impairment charges are measurements not in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) but are commonly used in the gaming industry as measures of performance and as bases for valuation of gaming companies. Reconciliations of Property EBITDA to Net loss attributable to Caesars Entertainment Corporation and of Net loss attributable to Caesars Entertainment Corporation to Adjusted EBITDA are attached to this release. Property EBITDA consists of income/(loss) from operations before depreciation and amortization, project opening costs, write-downs, reserves and recoveries, impairment of intangible assets, income/(losses) on interests in non-consolidated affiliates, corporate expense, acquisition and integration costs, 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 loss 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. |

SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION
RECONCILIATION OF NET LOSS ATTRIBUTABLE TO CAESARS ENTERTAINMENT CORPORATION TO ADJUSTED EBITDA AND LTM ADJUSTED EBITDA
(UNAUDITED)
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA further adjusted to exclude unusual items and other adjustments required or permitted in calculating covenant compliance under the indenture governing the senior notes, first lien notes, second lien notes and/or our senior secured credit facilities. We believe that the inclusion of supplementary adjustments to EBITDA applied in presenting Adjusted EBITDA are appropriate to provide additional information to investors about certain material non-cash items and about unusual items that we do not expect to continue at the same level in the future.
LTM Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA further adjusted to include pro forma adjustments related to properties and estimated cost savings yet to be realized. Because not all companies use identical calculations, our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA and LTM Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.
The following table reconciles net loss attributable to Caesars Entertainment Corporation to Adjusted EBITDA for the second quarters ended June 30, 2011 and 2010.

CAESARS ENTERTAINMENT OPERATING COMPANY, INC., A WHOLLY OWNED SUBSIDIARY OF
CAESARS ENTERTAINMENT CORPORATION
RECONCILIATION OF NET LOSS ATTRIBUTABLE TO CAESARS ENTERTAINMENT OPERATING
COMPANY, INC. TO ADJUSTED EBITDA AND LTM ADJUSTED EBITA
(UNAUDITED)
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA further adjusted to exclude unusual items and other adjustments required or permitted in calculating covenant compliance under the indenture governing the senior notes, first lien notes, second lien notes and/or our senior secured credit facilities. We believe that the inclusion of supplementary adjustments to EBITDA applied in presenting Adjusted EBITDA are appropriate to provide additional information to investors about certain material non-cash items and about unusual items that we do not expect to continue at the same level in the future.
LTM Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA further adjusted to include pro forma adjustments related to properties and estimated cost savings yet to be realized. As Planet Hollywood is an unrestricted subsidiary of CEOC, adjustments included in the table below related to Planet Hollywood are excluded from the covenant computations under the CEOC debt agreements.
Because not all companies use identical calculations, our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA and LTM Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.
The following table reconciles net loss attributable to Caesars Entertainment Operating Company, Inc. to Adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter ended June 30, 2011 and 2010.
