UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information included herein presents the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet and the unaudited pro forma condensed statements of combined operations based on the combined audited historical financial statements of Century Casinos, Inc. (“Century” or the “Company”) and the operations of Evitts Resort, LLC dba Rocky Gap Casino Resort (“Rocky Gap”), located in Flintstone, Maryland acquired on July 25, 2023 (the “Acquisition”), and the adjustments described in the accompanying notes.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet gives effect to the Acquisition as if it had occurred on March 31, 2023, and the unaudited pro forma condensed statements of combined operations for the year ended December 31, 2022 and three months ended March 31, 2023 give effect to the Acquisition as if it had occurred on January 1, 2022, the beginning of the earliest period presented. The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is based on historical financial statements of Rocky Gap, and the assumptions and adjustments set forth in the accompanying explanatory notes.
The historical consolidated financial statements have been adjusted in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements to give effect to pro forma events that are: (1) directly attributable to the Acquisition; (2) factually supportable; and (3) with respect to the unaudited pro forma condensed statements of combined operations, expected to have a continuing impact on the combined results of Century and Rocky Gap. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information for the Acquisition has been developed from and should be read in conjunction with Century’s consolidated financial statements contained in Century’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, Century’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended March 31, 2023, as well as the historical financial statements for Rocky Gap included with this Form 8-K.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared by Century using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with US generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Century has been treated as the acquirer for accounting purposes. The acquisition accounting is dependent upon certain valuations that are in the process of being finalized. The assets and liabilities of Rocky Gap have been measured based on various preliminary estimates using assumptions that Century believes are reasonable based on the information that is currently available. Differences between these preliminary estimates and the final acquisition accounting will occur, and those differences could have a material impact on the accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements and have been made solely for the purpose of providing unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The unaudited pro forma condensed statements of combined operations also do not reflect any cost savings from potential operating efficiencies or associated costs to achieve such savings or synergies that are expected to result from the Acquisition nor do they include any costs associated with restructuring or integration activities resulting from the Acquisition. However, such costs will affect the combined company following the Acquisition in the period the costs are incurred.
Century intends to finalize the necessary valuations required to finalize the acquisition accounting as soon as practicable within the required measurement period, but in no event later than one year following completion of the Acquisition.

CENTURY CASINOS, INC.
NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1 – Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is intended to reflect the impact of the Acquisition on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and presents the pro forma financial position and results of operations of the Company based on the historical financial statements and accounting records of Century and Rocky Gap after giving effect to the Acquisition.
Pro forma adjustments are included only to the extent they are directly attributable to the Acquisition, factually supportable, and with respect to the unaudited pro forma condensed statements of combined operations, expected to have a continuing impact on the results of the combined company. The accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is presented for illustrative purposes only.
The Acquisition will be accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting with the Company considered the acquirer. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information reflects the preliminary assessment of fair values and useful lives assigned to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Changes to the fair values of these assets and liabilities will result in changes to goodwill.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet gives effect to the Acquisition as if it had occurred on March 31, 2023, and the unaudited pro forma condensed statements of combined operations for the year ended December 31, 2022 and three months ended March 31, 2023 give effect to the Acquisition as if it had occurred on January 1, 2022, the beginning of the earliest period presented.
Items Not Adjusted in the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information does not include any adjustment for liabilities or related costs that may result from integration activities following the closing of the Acquisition. Significant liabilities and related costs may ultimately be recorded for integration activities. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet only includes adjustments for transaction-related costs that are directly attributable to the Acquisition and are factually supportable.
Financing Agreement
On April 1, 2022, the Company entered into a credit agreement (the “Goldman Credit Agreement”) with Goldman Sachs Bank USA, as administrative agent and collateral agent, Goldman Sachs Bank USA and BOFA Securities, Inc., as joint lead arrangers and joint bookrunners, and the Lenders and L/C Lenders party thereto. The Goldman Credit Agreement provides for a $350.0 million term loan and a $30.0 million revolving credit facility. The $30.0 million revolving line of credit was borrowed to fund the Acquisition.
The unaudited pro forma condensed statement of combined operations for the year ended December 31, 2022 and three months ended March 31, 2023 assumes the incremental borrowings associated with the Goldman Credit Agreement occurred on January 1, 2022, the beginning of the earliest period presented.
Financing Obligation
On July 25, 2023, simultaneous with the closing of the Acquisition, affiliates of VICI Properties Inc. (“VICI”) purchased the land and building associated with Rocky Gap. On July 25, 2023, the Company amended its triple net lease agreement with certain affiliates of VICI, dated December 6, 2019, as amended (the “Master Lease”) to add the Rocky Gap property. The amendment to the Master Lease includes an increase in initial annualized rent of approximately $15.5 million with an initial term of 15 years, with four five-year renewal options.
Refer to Note 3(3) below for further information about the Master Lease.

The player loyalty program (“Players Club”) was valued using the multi-period excess earnings method (“MPEEM”) under the income approach. The fair value of the Players Club is calculated as the present value of projected net cash flows after taxes and contributory asset charges. The MPEEM relies on projected operating earnings and considers the portion of cash flow attributable to both the Players Club and the relevant contributory assets needed to support it. Contributory assets include net working capital, fixed assets and real estate. The MPEEM considers the revenue and EBITDA generated by current Players Club members based on historical operations and future cash flows based on projected operations and member retention. The Company has assigned a 10-year useful life to the Players Club.
The Rocky Gap trademark was valued using the relief from royalty method, which presumes that without ownership of such asset the Company would have to make a stream of payments to a brand or franchise owner in return for the right to use the name. By virtue of this asset, the Company avoids any such payments and records the related intangible value of the trademark. The primary assumptions in the valuation included projected revenue, a pre-tax royalty rate, the trademark’s useful life, and tax expense. The Company has assigned the Rocky Gap trademark a 10-year useful life after considering, among other things, the expected use of the asset, the expected useful life of other related assets or asset groups, any legal, regulatory, or contractual provisions that may limit the useful life, the effects of obsolescence, demand and other economic factors, and the maintenance expenditures required to promote and support the trademark.
