Leases [Abstract] | |
Leases | Note 12—Leases Lessee Master Leases The components contained within the Master Leases are accounted for as either (i) operating leases, (ii) finance leases, or (iii) financing obligations. Changes to future lease payments under the Master Leases (i.e., when future escalators become known or future variable rent resets occur), which are discussed below, require the Company to either (i) increase both the ROU assets and corresponding lease liabilities with respect to operating and finance leases or (ii) record the incremental variable payment associated with the financing obligation to interest expense. In addition, monthly rent associated with Hollywood Casino Columbus (“Columbus”) and monthly rent in excess of the Hollywood Casino Toledo (“Toledo”) rent floor, which are discussed below, are considered contingent rent. PENN Master Lease Pursuant to the triple net master lease with GLPI (the “PENN Master Lease”), which became effective November 1, 2013, the Company leases real estate assets associated with 19 of the gaming facilities used in its operations. The PENN Master Lease has an initial term of 15 years with four subsequent five-year renewal periods on the same terms and conditions, exercisable at the Company’s option. The Company has determined that the lease term is 35 years. The payment structure under the PENN Master Lease includes a fixed component, a portion of which is subject to an annual escalator of up to 2%, depending on the Adjusted Revenue to Rent Ratio (as defined in the PENN Master Lease) of 1.8:1, and a component that is based on performance, which is prospectively adjusted (i) every five years by an amount equal to 4% of the average change in net revenues of all properties under the PENN Master Lease (other than Columbus and Toledo) compared to a contractual baseline during the preceding five years (“PENN Percentage Rent”) and (ii) monthly by an amount equal to 20% of the net revenues of Columbus and Toledo in excess of a contractual baseline and subject to a rent floor specific to Toledo (see below). As a result of the annual escalator, effective as of November 1, 2022 for the lease year ended October 31, 2022, the fixed component of rent increased by $5.7 million, additional ROU assets and corresponding lease liabilities of $3.6 million were recognized associated with the operating lease components, and additional ROU assets and corresponding lease liabilities of $44.8 million were recognized associated with the finance lease components. As a result of the annual escalator, effective as of November 1, 2021 for the lease year ended October 31, 2021, the fixed component of rent increased by $5.6 million, additional ROU assets and corresponding lease liabilities of $34.2 million were recognized associated with the operating lease components, and additional ROU assets and corresponding lease liabilities of $3.1 million were recognized associated with the finance lease components. We did not incur an annual escalator on November 1, 2020 for the lease year ended October 31, 2020. The next annual escalator test date and the next PENN Percentage Rent reset test date are both scheduled to occur effective November 1, 2023. Monthly rent associated with Columbus and monthly rent in excess of the Toledo rent floor are variable and considered contingent rent. Expense related to operating lease components associated with Columbus and Toledo are included in “General and administrative” within our Consolidated Statements of Operations and the variable expense related to financing obligations and finance lease components are included in “Interest expense, net” within our Consolidated Statements of Operations. Total monthly variable expenses were as follows: For the year ended December 31, (in millions) 2022 2021 2020 Variable expenses included in “General and administrative” $ 1.2 $ 18.7 $ 12.9 Variable expenses included in “Interest expense, net” 36.4 17.1 11.8 Total variable expenses $ 37.6 $ 35.8 $ 24.7 On January 14, 2022, the ninth amendment to the PENN Master Lease between the Company and GLPI became effective. The ninth amendment restates the definition of “Net Revenue” to clarify the inclusion of online-based revenues derived when a patron is physically present at a leased property, establishes a “floor” with respect to the PNRC Net Revenue amount used in the calculation of the annual rent escalator and PENN Percentage Rent, and modifies the rent calculations upon a lease termination event as defined in the amendment. The lease term and the four five-year optional renewal periods, which if exercised would extend the PENN Master Lease through October 31, 2048, were not modified in the ninth amendment. We concluded the ninth amendment constituted a modification event under ASC 842, which required us to reassess the classifications of the lease components and remeasure the associated lease liabilities. As a result of our reassessment of the lease classifications, (i) the land components of substantially all of the PENN Master Lease properties, which were previously classified as operating leases, are now primarily classified as finance leases, and (ii) the land and building components associated with the operations of Dayton and Mahoning Valley, which were previously classified as finance leases, are now classified as operating leases. As a result of our measurement of the associated lease liabilities, we recognized additional ROU assets and corresponding lease liabilities of $455.4 million. The building components of substantially all of the PENN Master Lease properties continue to be classified as financing obligations. On October 9, 2022, the Company entered into a binding term sheet (the “Term Sheet”) with GLPI. Pursuant to the Term Sheet, the Company and GLPI agreed to amend and restate the PENN Master Lease (the “Amended and Restated PENN Master Lease”) to (i) remove the land and buildings for Hollywood Casino Aurora (“Aurora”), Hollywood Casino Joliet (“Joliet”), Columbus, Toledo and the M Resort Spa Casino (“M Resort”); (ii) make associated adjustments to the rent after which the initial rent in the Amended and Restated PENN Master Lease will be $284.1 million, consisting of $208.2 million of Building Base Rent, $43.0 million of Land Base Rent and $32.9 million of Percentage Rent (as such terms are defined in the Amended and Restated PENN Master Lease); and (iii) terminate the existing leases associated with Hollywood Casino at The Meadows (“Meadows”) and Perryville. Subsequent to year end, the Amended and Restated PENN Master Lease was executed on February 21, 2023 with an effective date of January 1, 2023. We concluded the Amended and Restated PENN Master Lease constitutes a modification event under ASC 842 and are currently reassessing, remeasuring, and quantifying the impact of the modification to the Consolidated Financial Statements, which may be material. The modification event is expected to result in (i) a non-cash debt extinguishment charge recorded to our Consolidated Statements of Operations and corresponding change in our financing obligations on our Consolidated Balance Sheets; and (ii) a revaluation of our ROU assets and corresponding lease liabilities on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. 2023 Master Lease As part of the Term Sheet and concurrent with the execution of the Amended and Restated PENN Master Lease described above, the Company and GLPI agreed to enter into a new master lease (the “2023 Master Lease”), effective January 1, 2023, specific to the properties associated with Aurora, Joliet, Columbus, Toledo, M Resort, Meadows, and Perryville, and a master development agreement (the “Master Development Agreement”). The 2023 Master Lease has an initial term through October 31, 2033 with three subsequent five-year renewal periods on the same terms and conditions, exercisable at the Company’s option. The 2023 Master Lease will be cross-defaulted, cross-collateralized, and coterminous with the Amended and Restated PENN Master Lease, and subject to a parent guarantee. We are currently assessing, measuring, and quantifying the impact of the 2023 Master Lease to the Consolidated Financial Statements, which may be material. The 2023 Master Lease includes a base rent (the “2023 Master Lease Base Rent”) equal to $232.2 million and the Master Development Agreement contains additional rent (together with the 2023 Master Lease Base Rent, the “2023 Master Lease Rent”) equal to (i) 7.75% of any project funding received by PENN from GLPI for an anticipated relocation of PENN’s riverboat casino and related developments with respect to Aurora (the “Aurora Project”) and (ii) a percentage based on the then-current GLPI stock price, of any project funding received by PENN from GLPI for certain anticipated development projects with respect to Joliet, Columbus and M Resort (the “Other Development Projects”). The Master Development Agreement provides that GLPI will fund, upon PENN’s request, up to $225 million for the Aurora Project and up to $350 million in the aggregate for the Other Development Projects, in accordance with certain terms and conditions set forth in the Master Development Agreement. These funding obligations of GLPI expire on January 1, 2026. The 2023 Master Lease Rent will be subject to a one-time increase of $1.4 million, effective the fifth anniversary of the effective date. The 2023 Master Lease Rent will be further subject to a fixed escalator of 1.5% on November 1, 2023 and annually thereafter. The Master Development Agreement provides that PENN may elect not to proceed with a development project prior to GLPI’s commencement of any equity or debt offering or credit facility draw intended to fund such project or after such time in certain instances, provided that GLPI will be reimbursed for all costs and expenses incurred in connection with such discontinued project. The Aurora Project and the Other Development Projects are all subject to necessary regulatory and other government approvals. Pinnacle Master Lease In connection with the acquisition of Pinnacle on October 15, 2018, we assumed a triple net master lease with GLPI (the “Pinnacle Master Lease”), originally effective April 28, 2016, pursuant to which the Company leases real estate assets associated with 12 of the gaming facilities used in its operations. Upon assumption of the Pinnacle Master Lease, as amended, there were 7.5 years remaining of the initial ten-year term, with five subsequent, five-year renewal periods, on the same terms and conditions, exercisable at the Company’s option. The Company has determined that the lease term is 32.5 years. The payment structure under the Pinnacle Master Lease includes a fixed component, a portion of which is subject to an annual escalator of up to 2%, depending on the Adjusted Revenue to Rent Ratio (as defined in the Pinnacle Master Lease) of 1.8:1, and a component that is based on the performance of the properties, which is prospectively adjusted every two years by an amount equal to 4% of the average change in net revenues compared to a contractual baseline during the preceding two years (“Pinnacle Percentage Rent”). As a result of the annual escalator, effective as of May 1, 2022, for the lease year ended April 30, 2022, the fixed component of rent increased by $4.6 million, and additional ROU assets and corresponding lease liabilities of $33.2 million were recognized associated with the finance lease components. As a result of the annual escalator, effective as of May 1, 2021, for the lease year ended April 30, 2021, the fixed component of rent increased by $4.5 million, and additional ROU assets and corresponding lease liabilities of $17.2 million were recognized associated with the operating lease components. We did not incur an annual escalator on May 1, 2020 for the lease year ended April 30, 2020. The next annual escalator test date is scheduled to occur on May 1, 2023. The May 1, 2022 Pinnacle Percentage Rent reset resulted in an annual rent increase of $1.9 million, which will be in effect until the next Pinnacle Percentage Rent reset, scheduled to occur on May 1, 2024. Upon reset of the Pinnacle Percentage Rent, effective May 1, 2022, we recognized additional finance lease ROU assets and corresponding lease liabilities of $26.1 million. Effective May 1, 2020, the Pinnacle Percentage Rent resulted in an annual rent reduction of $5.0 million, and we recognized additional operating lease ROU assets and corresponding lease liabilities of $14.9 million. On January 14, 2022, the fifth amendment to the Pinnacle Master Lease between the Company and GLPI became effective. The fifth amendment restates the definition of “Net Revenue” to clarify the inclusion of online-based revenues derived when a patron is physically present at a leased property and modifies the rent calculations upon a lease termination event as defined in the amendment. The lease term and the five five-year optional renewal periods, which if exercised would extend the Pinnacle Master Lease through April 30, 2051, were not modified in the fifth amendment. We concluded the fifth amendment to the Pinnacle Master Lease constituted a modification event under ASC 842 (collectively with the ninth amendment to the PENN Master Lease, the “Lease Modification”). As a result of the modification, the land components of substantially all of the Pinnacle Master Lease properties, which were previously classified as operating leases, are now primarily classified as finance leases. As a result of our measurement of the associated lease liabilities, we recognized additional ROU assets and corresponding lease liabilities of $937.6 million. The building components of substantially all of the Pinnacle Master Lease properties continue to be classified as financing obligations. Morgantown Lease On October 1, 2020, the Company entered into a triple net lease with a subsidiary of GLPI for the land underlying our property in Morgantown, Pennsylvania (“Morgantown Lease”) in exchange for $30.0 million in rent credits to be utilized to pay rent under the Master Leases, Meadows Lease, and the Morgantown Lease, as discussed in Note 6, “Acquisitions and Dispositions.” The initial term of the Morgantown Lease is 20 years with six subsequent, five-year renewal periods, exercisable at the Company’s option. Initial annual rent under the Morgantown Lease is $3.0 million, subject to a 1.50% fixed annual escalation in each of the first three years subsequent to the facility opening, which occurred on December 22, 2021. Thereafter, the lease will be subject to an annual escalator consisting of either (i) 1.25%, if the consumer price index increase is greater than 0.50%, or (ii) zero, if the consumer price index increase is less than 0.50%. All improvements made on the land, including the constructed building, will be owned by the Company while the lease is in effect, however, on the expiration or termination of the Morgantown Lease, ownership of all tenant improvements on the land will transfer to GLPI. We determined the transaction to be a financing arrangement and upon execution of the Morgantown Lease, recorded a $30.0 million financing obligation which is included in “Long-term portion of financing obligations” within our Consolidated Balance Sheets. Lease payments are included in “Interest expense, net” within our Consolidated Statements of Operations. Perryville Lease In conjunction with the acquisition of the operations of Perryville on July 1, 2021, the Company entered into a triple net lease with GLPI for the real estate assets associated with the property (“Perryville Lease”) for initial annual rent of $7.8 million per year subject to escalation, as discussed in Note 6, “Acquisitions and Dispositions.” The initial term of the Perryville Lease is 20 years with three subsequent, five-year renewal periods, exercisable at the Company’s option. The building portion of the annual rent is subject to a fixed annual escalation of 1.50% in each of the following three years, with subsequent annual escalations of either (i) 1.25%, if the consumer price index increase is greater than 0.50%, or (ii) zero, if the consumer price index increase is less than 0.50%. We determined the transaction to be a finance lease arrangement and upon execution of the Perryville Lease, recorded a $102.9 million ROU asset and a corresponding lease liability. The interest portion of lease payments is included in “Interest expense, net” and the depreciation of the ROU asset is included in “Depreciation and amortization”, both within our Consolidated Statements of Operations. In conjunction with entering into the 2023 Master Lease as described above, the Perryville Lease was terminated effective January 1, 2023. Operating Leases In addition to the operating lease components contained within the Master Leases, the Company’s operating leases consist mainly of (i) individual triple net leases with GLPI for the real estate assets used in the operations of Tropicana (the “Tropicana Lease”), which was terminated on September 26, 2022, and Meadows (the “Meadows Lease”), (ii) individual triple net leases with VICI for the real estate assets used in the operations of Margaritaville Resort Casino (the “Margaritaville Lease”) and Hollywood Casino at Greektown (the “Greektown Lease” and collectively with the Master Leases operating lease components, the Meadows Lease, the Margaritaville Lease and the Tropicana Lease, the “Triple Net Operating Leases”), (iii) ground and levee leases to landlords which were not assumed by our REIT Landlords and remain an obligation of the Company, and (iv) building and equipment not subject to the Master Leases. Certain of our lease agreements include rental payments based on a percentage of sales over specified contractual amounts, rental payments adjusted periodically for inflation, and rental payments based on usage. The Company’s leases include options to extend the lease terms. The Company’s operating lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. Tropicana Lease Prior to the closing of the sale of PENN’s outstanding equity interest in Tropicana on September 26, 2022, the Company leased the real estate assets used in the operations of Tropicana for nominal cash rent. The term of the Tropicana Lease was for two years (subject to three one-year extensions at GLPI’s option) or until the real estate assets and the operations of the Tropicana were sold. Upon execution of the Tropicana Lease, we recorded an operating lease ROU asset of $61.6 million, which was included in “Lease right-of-use assets” within the Consolidated Balance Sheets. See Note 6, “Acquisitions and Dispositions ” for further details on the sale of PENN’s outstanding equity interest in Tropicana. Meadows Lease In connection with the acquisition of Pinnacle, we assumed the Meadows Lease, originally effective September 9, 2016. Upon assumption of the Meadows Lease, there were eight years remaining of the initial ten-year term, with three subsequent, five-year renewal options followed by one four-year renewal option on the same terms and conditions, exercisable at the Company’s option. The payment structure under the Meadows Lease includes a fixed component (“Meadows Base Rent”), which is subject to an annual escalator of up to 5% for the initial term or until the lease year in which Meadows Base Rent plus Meadows Percentage Rent (as defined below) is a total of $31.0 million, subject to certain adjustments, and up to 2% thereafter, subject to an Adjusted Revenue to Rent Ratio (as defined in the Meadows Lease) of 2.0:1. The “Meadows Percentage Rent” is based on performance, which is prospectively adjusted for the next two-year period equal to 4.0% of the average annual net revenues of the property during the trailing two-year period. We did not incur an annual escalator on October 1, 2022, 2021 or 2020, for the lease years ended September 30, 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Effective October 1, 2022 and 2020, the Meadows Percentage Rent resulted in an annual rent reduction of $0.9 million and $2.1 million, respectively. Upon reset of the Meadows Percentage Rent, effective October 1, 2022 and 2020, we recognized an additional operating lease ROU asset and corresponding lease liability of $15.4 million and $17.1 million, respectively. On January 14, 2022, the second amendment to the Meadows Lease between the Company and GLPI became effective. The second amendment restates the definition of “Net Revenue” to clarify the inclusion of online-based revenues derived when a patron is physically present at the facility. This amendment did not result in a modification event under ASC 842. In conjunction with entering into the 2023 Master Lease as described above, the Meadows Lease was terminated effective January 1, 2023. Margaritaville Lease The Margaritaville Lease has an initial term of 15 years, with four subsequent five-year renewal options on the same terms and conditions, exercisable at the Company’s option. The payment structure under the Margaritaville Lease includes a fixed component, a portion that is subject to an annual escalator of up to 2% depending on a minimum coverage floor ratio of Net Revenue to Rent of 6.1:1, and a component that is based on performance, which is prospectively adjusted every two years by an amount equal to 4% of the average change in net revenues of the property compared to a contractual baseline during the preceding two years (“Margaritaville Percentage Rent”). Subsequent to year end, on February 1, 2023, the Margaritaville Lease annual escalator test resulted in an annual rent increase of $0.4 million and the recognition of an additional operating lease ROU asset and corresponding lease liability of $2.8 million. On February 1, 2022, the Margaritaville Lease annual escalator test resulted in an annual rent increase of $0.4 million and the recognition of an additional operating lease ROU asset and corresponding lease liability of $2.9 million. We did not incur an annual escalator for the lease year ended January 31, 2021. On February 1, 2020, the annual escalator test resulted in an annual rent increase of $0.3 million and the recognition of an additional operating lease ROU asset and corresponding lease liability of $3.1 million. Subsequent to year end, on February 1, 2023, the Margaritaville Percentage Rent reset resulted in an annual rent increase of $2.3 million which will be in effect until the next Margaritaville Percentage Rent reset, scheduled to occur on February 1, 2025. Upon reset of the Margaritaville Percentage Rent, effective February 1, 2023, we recognized an additional operating lease ROU asset and corresponding lease liability of $9.8 million. On February 1, 2021, the Margaritaville Percentage Rent reset resulted in an annual rent reduction of $0.1 million which was in effect until the February 1, 2023 Margaritaville Percentage Rent reset. Upon reset of the Margaritaville Percentage Rent, effective February 1, 2021, we recognized an additional operating lease ROU asset and corresponding lease liability of $5.5 million. Greektown Lease The Greektown Lease has an initial term of 15 years, with four subsequent five-year renewal options on the same terms and conditions, exercisable at the Company’s option. The payment structure under the Greektown Lease includes a fixed component, a portion subject to an annual escalator of up to 2% depending on an Adjusted Revenue to Rent Ratio (as defined in the Greektown Lease) of 1.85:1, and a component that is based on performance, which is prospectively adjusted every two years by an amount equal to 4% of the average change in net revenues of the property compared to a contractual baseline during the preceding two years (“Greektown Percentage Rent”). In May 2020, the lease was amended to remove the escalator for the lease years ending May 31, 2022 and 2021 and to provide for a Net Revenue to Rent coverage floor to be mutually agreed upon prior to the commencement of the fourth lease year (June 1, 2022). In April 2022, the lease was further amended to provide for a Net Revenue to Rent coverage floor to be mutually agreed upon prior to the commencement of the fifth lease year (June 1, 2023). We did not incur an annual escalator on June 1, 2020 for the lease year ended May 31, 2020. On June 1, 2021, the Greektown Percentage Rent reset resulted in an annual rent reduction of $4.2 million, which will be in effect until the next Greektown Percentage Rent reset, scheduled to occur on June 1, 2023. Upon reset of the Greektown Percentage Rent, effective June 1, 2021, we recognized an additional operating lease ROU asset and corresponding lease liability of $4.1 million.

Leases | Note 12—Leases Lessee Master Leases The components contained within the Master Leases are accounted for as either (i) operating leases, (ii) finance leases, or (iii) financing obligations. Changes to future lease payments under the Master Leases (i.e., when future escalators become known or future variable rent resets occur), which are discussed below, require the Company to either (i) increase both the ROU assets and corresponding lease liabilities with respect to operating and finance leases or (ii) record the incremental variable payment associated with the financing obligation to interest expense. In addition, monthly rent associated with Hollywood Casino Columbus (“Columbus”) and monthly rent in excess of the Hollywood Casino Toledo (“Toledo”) rent floor, which are discussed below, are considered contingent rent. PENN Master Lease Pursuant to the triple net master lease with GLPI (the “PENN Master Lease”), which became effective November 1, 2013, the Company leases real estate assets associated with 19 of the gaming facilities used in its operations. The PENN Master Lease has an initial term of 15 years with four subsequent five-year renewal periods on the same terms and conditions, exercisable at the Company’s option. The Company has determined that the lease term is 35 years. The payment structure under the PENN Master Lease includes a fixed component, a portion of which is subject to an annual escalator of up to 2%, depending on the Adjusted Revenue to Rent Ratio (as defined in the PENN Master Lease) of 1.8:1, and a component that is based on performance, which is prospectively adjusted (i) every five years by an amount equal to 4% of the average change in net revenues of all properties under the PENN Master Lease (other than Columbus and Toledo) compared to a contractual baseline during the preceding five years (“PENN Percentage Rent”) and (ii) monthly by an amount equal to 20% of the net revenues of Columbus and Toledo in excess of a contractual baseline and subject to a rent floor specific to Toledo (see below). As a result of the annual escalator, effective as of November 1, 2022 for the lease year ended October 31, 2022, the fixed component of rent increased by $5.7 million, additional ROU assets and corresponding lease liabilities of $3.6 million were recognized associated with the operating lease components, and additional ROU assets and corresponding lease liabilities of $44.8 million were recognized associated with the finance lease components. As a result of the annual escalator, effective as of November 1, 2021 for the lease year ended October 31, 2021, the fixed component of rent increased by $5.6 million, additional ROU assets and corresponding lease liabilities of $34.2 million were recognized associated with the operating lease components, and additional ROU assets and corresponding lease liabilities of $3.1 million were recognized associated with the finance lease components. We did not incur an annual escalator on November 1, 2020 for the lease year ended October 31, 2020. The next annual escalator test date and the next PENN Percentage Rent reset test date are both scheduled to occur effective November 1, 2023. Monthly rent associated with Columbus and monthly rent in excess of the Toledo rent floor are variable and considered contingent rent. Expense related to operating lease components associated with Columbus and Toledo are included in “General and administrative” within our Consolidated Statements of Operations and the variable expense related to financing obligations and finance lease components are included in “Interest expense, net” within our Consolidated Statements of Operations. Total monthly variable expenses were as follows: For the year ended December 31, (in millions) 2022 2021 2020 Variable expenses included in “General and administrative” $ 1.2 $ 18.7 $ 12.9 Variable expenses included in “Interest expense, net” 36.4 17.1 11.8 Total variable expenses $ 37.6 $ 35.8 $ 24.7 On January 14, 2022, the ninth amendment to the PENN Master Lease between the Company and GLPI became effective. The ninth amendment restates the definition of “Net Revenue” to clarify the inclusion of online-based revenues derived when a patron is physically present at a leased property, establishes a “floor” with respect to the PNRC Net Revenue amount used in the calculation of the annual rent escalator and PENN Percentage Rent, and modifies the rent calculations upon a lease termination event as defined in the amendment. The lease term and the four five-year optional renewal periods, which if exercised would extend the PENN Master Lease through October 31, 2048, were not modified in the ninth amendment. We concluded the ninth amendment constituted a modification event under ASC 842, which required us to reassess the classifications of the lease components and remeasure the associated lease liabilities. As a result of our reassessment of the lease classifications, (i) the land components of substantially all of the PENN Master Lease properties, which were previously classified as operating leases, are now primarily classified as finance leases, and (ii) the land and building components associated with the operations of Dayton and Mahoning Valley, which were previously classified as finance leases, are now classified as operating leases. As a result of our measurement of the associated lease liabilities, we recognized additional ROU assets and corresponding lease liabilities of $455.4 million. The building components of substantially all of the PENN Master Lease properties continue to be classified as financing obligations. On October 9, 2022, the Company entered into a binding term sheet (the “Term Sheet”) with GLPI. Pursuant to the Term Sheet, the Company and GLPI agreed to amend and restate the PENN Master Lease (the “Amended and Restated PENN Master Lease”) to (i) remove the land and buildings for Hollywood Casino Aurora (“Aurora”), Hollywood Casino Joliet (“Joliet”), Columbus, Toledo and the M Resort Spa Casino (“M Resort”); (ii) make associated adjustments to the rent after which the initial rent in the Amended and Restated PENN Master Lease will be $284.1 million, consisting of $208.2 million of Building Base Rent, $43.0 million of Land Base Rent and $32.9 million of Percentage Rent (as such terms are defined in the Amended and Restated PENN Master Lease); and (iii) terminate the existing leases associated with Hollywood Casino at The Meadows (“Meadows”) and Perryville. Subsequent to year end, the Amended and Restated PENN Master Lease was executed on February 21, 2023 with an effective date of January 1, 2023. We concluded the Amended and Restated PENN Master Lease constitutes a modification event under ASC 842 and are currently reassessing, remeasuring, and quantifying the impact of the modification to the Consolidated Financial Statements, which may be material. The modification event is expected to result in (i) a non-cash debt extinguishment charge recorded to our Consolidated Statements of Operations and corresponding change in our financing obligations on our Consolidated Balance Sheets; and (ii) a revaluation of our ROU assets and corresponding lease liabilities on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. 2023 Master Lease As part of the Term Sheet and concurrent with the execution of the Amended and Restated PENN Master Lease described above, the Company and GLPI agreed to enter into a new master lease (the “2023 Master Lease”), effective January 1, 2023, specific to the properties associated with Aurora, Joliet, Columbus, Toledo, M Resort, Meadows, and Perryville, and a master development agreement (the “Master Development Agreement”). The 2023 Master Lease has an initial term through October 31, 2033 with three subsequent five-year renewal periods on the same terms and conditions, exercisable at the Company’s option. The 2023 Master Lease will be cross-defaulted, cross-collateralized, and coterminous with the Amended and Restated PENN Master Lease, and subject to a parent guarantee. We are currently assessing, measuring, and quantifying the impact of the 2023 Master Lease to the Consolidated Financial Statements, which may be material. The 2023 Master Lease includes a base rent (the “2023 Master Lease Base Rent”) equal to $232.2 million and the Master Development Agreement contains additional rent (together with the 2023 Master Lease Base Rent, the “2023 Master Lease Rent”) equal to (i) 7.75% of any project funding received by PENN from GLPI for an anticipated relocation of PENN’s riverboat casino and related developments with respect to Aurora (the “Aurora Project”) and (ii) a percentage based on the then-current GLPI stock price, of any project funding received by PENN from GLPI for certain anticipated development projects with respect to Joliet, Columbus and M Resort (the “Other Development Projects”). The Master Development Agreement provides that GLPI will fund, upon PENN’s request, up to $225 million for the Aurora Project and up to $350 million in the aggregate for the Other Development Projects, in accordance with certain terms and conditions set forth in the Master Development Agreement. These funding obligations of GLPI expire on January 1, 2026. The 2023 Master Lease Rent will be subject to a one-time increase of $1.4 million, effective the fifth anniversary of the effective date. The 2023 Master Lease Rent will be further subject to a fixed escalator of 1.5% on November 1, 2023 and annually thereafter. The Master Development Agreement provides that PENN may elect not to proceed with a development project prior to GLPI’s commencement of any equity or debt offering or credit facility draw intended to fund such project or after such time in certain instances, provided that GLPI will be reimbursed for all costs and expenses incurred in connection with such discontinued project. The Aurora Project and the Other Development Projects are all subject to necessary regulatory and other government approvals. Pinnacle Master Lease In connection with the acquisition of Pinnacle on October 15, 2018, we assumed a triple net master lease with GLPI (the “Pinnacle Master Lease”), originally effective April 28, 2016, pursuant to which the Company leases real estate assets associated with 12 of the gaming facilities used in its operations. Upon assumption of the Pinnacle Master Lease, as amended, there were 7.5 years remaining of the initial ten-year term, with five subsequent, five-year renewal periods, on the same terms and conditions, exercisable at the Company’s option. The Company has determined that the lease term is 32.5 years. The payment structure under the Pinnacle Master Lease includes a fixed component, a portion of which is subject to an annual escalator of up to 2%, depending on the Adjusted Revenue to Rent Ratio (as defined in the Pinnacle Master Lease) of 1.8:1, and a component that is based on the performance of the properties, which is prospectively adjusted every two years by an amount equal to 4% of the average change in net revenues compared to a contractual baseline during the preceding two years (“Pinnacle Percentage Rent”). As a result of the annual escalator, effective as of May 1, 2022, for the lease year ended April 30, 2022, the fixed component of rent increased by $4.6 million, and additional ROU assets and corresponding lease liabilities of $33.2 million were recognized associated with the finance lease components. As a result of the annual escalator, effective as of May 1, 2021, for the lease year ended April 30, 2021, the fixed component of rent increased by $4.5 million, and additional ROU assets and corresponding lease liabilities of $17.2 million were recognized associated with the operating lease components. We did not incur an annual escalator on May 1, 2020 for the lease year ended April 30, 2020. The next annual escalator test date is scheduled to occur on May 1, 2023. The May 1, 2022 Pinnacle Percentage Rent reset resulted in an annual rent increase of $1.9 million, which will be in effect until the next Pinnacle Percentage Rent reset, scheduled to occur on May 1, 2024. Upon reset of the Pinnacle Percentage Rent, effective May 1, 2022, we recognized additional finance lease ROU assets and corresponding lease liabilities of $26.1 million. Effective May 1, 2020, the Pinnacle Percentage Rent resulted in an annual rent reduction of $5.0 million, and we recognized additional operating lease ROU assets and corresponding lease liabilities of $14.9 million. On January 14, 2022, the fifth amendment to the Pinnacle Master Lease between the Company and GLPI became effective. The fifth amendment restates the definition of “Net Revenue” to clarify the inclusion of online-based revenues derived when a patron is physically present at a leased property and modifies the rent calculations upon a lease termination event as defined in the amendment. The lease term and the five five-year optional renewal periods, which if exercised would extend the Pinnacle Master Lease through April 30, 2051, were not modified in the fifth amendment. We concluded the fifth amendment to the Pinnacle Master Lease constituted a modification event under ASC 842 (collectively with the ninth amendment to the PENN Master Lease, the “Lease Modification”). As a result of the modification, the land components of substantially all of the Pinnacle Master Lease properties, which were previously classified as operating leases, are now primarily classified as finance leases. As a result of our measurement of the associated lease liabilities, we recognized additional ROU assets and corresponding lease liabilities of $937.6 million. The building components of substantially all of the Pinnacle Master Lease properties continue to be classified as financing obligations. Morgantown Lease On October 1, 2020, the Company entered into a triple net lease with a subsidiary of GLPI for the land underlying our property in Morgantown, Pennsylvania (“Morgantown Lease”) in exchange for $30.0 million in rent credits to be utilized to pay rent under the Master Leases, Meadows Lease, and the Morgantown Lease, as discussed in Note 6, “Acquisitions and Dispositions.” The initial term of the Morgantown Lease is 20 years with six subsequent, five-year renewal periods, exercisable at the Company’s option. Initial annual rent under the Morgantown Lease is $3.0 million, subject to a 1.50% fixed annual escalation in each of the first three years subsequent to the facility opening, which occurred on December 22, 2021. Thereafter, the lease will be subject to an annual escalator consisting of either (i) 1.25%, if the consumer price index increase is greater than 0.50%, or (ii) zero, if the consumer price index increase is less than 0.50%. All improvements made on the land, including the constructed building, will be owned by the Company while the lease is in effect, however, on the expiration or termination of the Morgantown Lease, ownership of all tenant improvements on the land will transfer to GLPI. We determined the transaction to be a financing arrangement and upon execution of the Morgantown Lease, recorded a $30.0 million financing obligation which is included in “Long-term portion of financing obligations” within our Consolidated Balance Sheets. Lease payments are included in “Interest expense, net” within our Consolidated Statements of Operations. Perryville Lease In conjunction with the acquisition of the operations of Perryville on July 1, 2021, the Company entered into a triple net lease with GLPI for the real estate assets associated with the property (“Perryville Lease”) for initial annual rent of $7.8 million per year subject to escalation, as discussed in Note 6, “Acquisitions and Dispositions.” The initial term of the Perryville Lease is 20 years with three subsequent, five-year renewal periods, exercisable at the Company’s option. The building portion of the annual rent is subject to a fixed annual escalation of 1.50% in each of the following three years, with subsequent annual escalations of either (i) 1.25%, if the consumer price index increase is greater than 0.50%, or (ii) zero, if the consumer price index increase is less than 0.50%. We determined the transaction to be a finance lease arrangement and upon execution of the Perryville Lease, recorded a $102.9 million ROU asset and a corresponding lease liability. The interest portion of lease payments is included in “Interest expense, net” and the depreciation of the ROU asset is included in “Depreciation and amortization”, both within our Consolidated Statements of Operations. In conjunction with entering into the 2023 Master Lease as described above, the Perryville Lease was terminated effective January 1, 2023. Operating Leases In addition to the operating lease components contained within the Master Leases, the Company’s operating leases consist mainly of (i) individual triple net leases with GLPI for the real estate assets used in the operations of Tropicana (the “Tropicana Lease”), which was terminated on September 26, 2022, and Meadows (the “Meadows Lease”), (ii) individual triple net leases with VICI for the real estate assets used in the operations of Margaritaville Resort Casino (the “Margaritaville Lease”) and Hollywood Casino at Greektown (the “Greektown Lease” and collectively with the Master Leases operating lease components, the Meadows Lease, the Margaritaville Lease and the Tropicana Lease, the “Triple Net Operating Leases”), (iii) ground and levee leases to landlords which were not assumed by our REIT Landlords and remain an obligation of the Company, and (iv) building and equipment not subject to the Master Leases. Certain of our lease agreements include rental payments based on a percentage of sales over specified contractual amounts, rental payments adjusted periodically for inflation, and rental payments based on usage. The Company’s leases include options to extend the lease terms. The Company’s operating lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. Tropicana Lease Prior to the closing of the sale of PENN’s outstanding equity interest in Tropicana on September 26, 2022, the Company leased the real estate assets used in the operations of Tropicana for nominal cash rent. The term of the Tropicana Lease was for two years (subject to three one-year extensions at GLPI’s option) or until the real estate assets and the operations of the Tropicana were sold. Upon execution of the Tropicana Lease, we recorded an operating lease ROU asset of $61.6 million, which was included in “Lease right-of-use assets” within the Consolidated Balance Sheets. See Note 6, “Acquisitions and Dispositions ” for further details on the sale of PENN’s outstanding equity interest in Tropicana. Meadows Lease In connection with the acquisition of Pinnacle, we assumed the Meadows Lease, originally effective September 9, 2016. Upon assumption of the Meadows Lease, there were eight years remaining of the initial ten-year term, with three subsequent, five-year renewal options followed by one four-year renewal option on the same terms and conditions, exercisable at the Company’s option. The payment structure under the Meadows Lease includes a fixed component (“Meadows Base Rent”), which is subject to an annual escalator of up to 5% for the initial term or until the lease year in which Meadows Base Rent plus Meadows Percentage Rent (as defined below) is a total of $31.0 million, subject to certain adjustments, and up to 2% thereafter, subject to an Adjusted Revenue to Rent Ratio (as defined in the Meadows Lease) of 2.0:1. The “Meadows Percentage Rent” is based on performance, which is prospectively adjusted for the next two-year period equal to 4.0% of the average annual net revenues of the property during the trailing two-year period. We did not incur an annual escalator on October 1, 2022, 2021 or 2020, for the lease years ended September 30, 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Effective October 1, 2022 and 2020, the Meadows Percentage Rent resulted in an annual rent reduction of $0.9 million and $2.1 million, respectively. Upon reset of the Meadows Percentage Rent, effective October 1, 2022 and 2020, we recognized an additional operating lease ROU asset and corresponding lease liability of $15.4 million and $17.1 million, respectively. On January 14, 2022, the second amendment to the Meadows Lease between the Company and GLPI became effective. The second amendment restates the definition of “Net Revenue” to clarify the inclusion of online-based revenues derived when a patron is physically present at the facility. This amendment did not result in a modification event under ASC 842. In conjunction with entering into the 2023 Master Lease as described above, the Meadows Lease was terminated effective January 1, 2023. Margaritaville Lease The Margaritaville Lease has an initial term of 15 years, with four subsequent five-year renewal options on the same terms and conditions, exercisable at the Company’s option. The payment structure under the Margaritaville Lease includes a fixed component, a portion that is subject to an annual escalator of up to 2% depending on a minimum coverage floor ratio of Net Revenue to Rent of 6.1:1, and a component that is based on performance, which is prospectively adjusted every two years by an amount equal to 4% of the average change in net revenues of the property compared to a contractual baseline during the preceding two years (“Margaritaville Percentage Rent”). Subsequent to year end, on February 1, 2023, the Margaritaville Lease annual escalator test resulted in an annual rent increase of $0.4 million and the recognition of an additional operating lease ROU asset and corresponding lease liability of $2.8 million. On February 1, 2022, the Margaritaville Lease annual escalator test resulted in an annual rent increase of $0.4 million and the recognition of an additional operating lease ROU asset and corresponding lease liability of $2.9 million. We did not incur an annual escalator for the lease year ended January 31, 2021. On February 1, 2020, the annual escalator test resulted in an annual rent increase of $0.3 million and the recognition of an additional operating lease ROU asset and corresponding lease liability of $3.1 million. Subsequent to year end, on February 1, 2023, the Margaritaville Percentage Rent reset resulted in an annual rent increase of $2.3 million which will be in effect until the next Margaritaville Percentage Rent reset, scheduled to occur on February 1, 2025. Upon reset of the Margaritaville Percentage Rent, effective February 1, 2023, we recognized an additional operating lease ROU asset and corresponding lease liability of $9.8 million. On February 1, 2021, the Margaritaville Percentage Rent reset resulted in an annual rent reduction of $0.1 million which was in effect until the February 1, 2023 Margaritaville Percentage Rent reset. Upon reset of the Margaritaville Percentage Rent, effective February 1, 2021, we recognized an additional operating lease ROU asset and corresponding lease liability of $5.5 million. Greektown Lease The Greektown Lease has an initial term of 15 years, with four subsequent five-year renewal options on the same terms and conditions, exercisable at the Company’s option. The payment structure under the Greektown Lease includes a fixed component, a portion subject to an annual escalator of up to 2% depending on an Adjusted Revenue to Rent Ratio (as defined in the Greektown Lease) of 1.85:1, and a component that is based on performance, which is prospectively adjusted every two years by an amount equal to 4% of the average change in net revenues of the property compared to a contractual baseline during the preceding two years (“Greektown Percentage Rent”). In May 2020, the lease was amended to remove the escalator for the lease years ending May 31, 2022 and 2021 and to provide for a Net Revenue to Rent coverage floor to be mutually agreed upon prior to the commencement of the fourth lease year (June 1, 2022). In April 2022, the lease was further amended to provide for a Net Revenue to Rent coverage floor to be mutually agreed upon prior to the commencement of the fifth lease year (June 1, 2023). We did not incur an annual escalator on June 1, 2020 for the lease year ended May 31, 2020. On June 1, 2021, the Greektown Percentage Rent reset resulted in an annual rent reduction of $4.2 million, which will be in effect until the next Greektown Percentage Rent reset, scheduled to occur on June 1, 2023. Upon reset of the Greektown Percentage Rent, effective June 1, 2021, we recognized an additional operating lease ROU asset and corresponding lease liability of $4.1 million.

Prior to the Lease Modification, the operating lease components contained within the Master Leases primarily consisted of the land, inclusive of the variable expense associated with Columbus and Toledo. Subsequent to the Lease Modification, the operating lease components contained within the Master Leases consist of the land and building components associated with the operations of Dayton and Mahoning Valley.

Prior to the Lease Modification, the finance lease components contained within the Master Leases consisted of the land and building components associated with the operations of Dayton and Mahoning Valley. Subsequent to the Lease Modification, the finance lease components contained within the Master Leases primarily consist of the land, inclusive of the variable expense associated with Columbus and Toledo. (4) Pertains to the components contained within the Master Leases (primarily buildings) and the Morgantown Lease determined to be a financing obligation, inclusive of the variable expense associated with Columbus and Toledo for the finance lease components (the buildings).

For the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021, and 2020, the Company recognized $262.0 million, $231.1 million, and $146.8 million of lessor revenues related to the rental of hotel |
Leases | Note 12—Leases Lessee Master Leases The components contained within the Master Leases are accounted for as either (i) operating leases, (ii) finance leases, or (iii) financing obligations. Changes to future lease payments under the Master Leases (i.e., when future escalators become known or future variable rent resets occur), which are discussed below, require the Company to either (i) increase both the ROU assets and corresponding lease liabilities with respect to operating and finance leases or (ii) record the incremental variable payment associated with the financing obligation to interest expense. In addition, monthly rent associated with Hollywood Casino Columbus (“Columbus”) and monthly rent in excess of the Hollywood Casino Toledo (“Toledo”) rent floor, which are discussed below, are considered contingent rent. PENN Master Lease Pursuant to the triple net master lease with GLPI (the “PENN Master Lease”), which became effective November 1, 2013, the Company leases real estate assets associated with 19 of the gaming facilities used in its operations. The PENN Master Lease has an initial term of 15 years with four subsequent five-year renewal periods on the same terms and conditions, exercisable at the Company’s option. The Company has determined that the lease term is 35 years. The payment structure under the PENN Master Lease includes a fixed component, a portion of which is subject to an annual escalator of up to 2%, depending on the Adjusted Revenue to Rent Ratio (as defined in the PENN Master Lease) of 1.8:1, and a component that is based on performance, which is prospectively adjusted (i) every five years by an amount equal to 4% of the average change in net revenues of all properties under the PENN Master Lease (other than Columbus and Toledo) compared to a contractual baseline during the preceding five years (“PENN Percentage Rent”) and (ii) monthly by an amount equal to 20% of the net revenues of Columbus and Toledo in excess of a contractual baseline and subject to a rent floor specific to Toledo (see below). As a result of the annual escalator, effective as of November 1, 2022 for the lease year ended October 31, 2022, the fixed component of rent increased by $5.7 million, additional ROU assets and corresponding lease liabilities of $3.6 million were recognized associated with the operating lease components, and additional ROU assets and corresponding lease liabilities of $44.8 million were recognized associated with the finance lease components. As a result of the annual escalator, effective as of November 1, 2021 for the lease year ended October 31, 2021, the fixed component of rent increased by $5.6 million, additional ROU assets and corresponding lease liabilities of $34.2 million were recognized associated with the operating lease components, and additional ROU assets and corresponding lease liabilities of $3.1 million were recognized associated with the finance lease components. We did not incur an annual escalator on November 1, 2020 for the lease year ended October 31, 2020. The next annual escalator test date and the next PENN Percentage Rent reset test date are both scheduled to occur effective November 1, 2023. Monthly rent associated with Columbus and monthly rent in excess of the Toledo rent floor are variable and considered contingent rent. Expense related to operating lease components associated with Columbus and Toledo are included in “General and administrative” within our Consolidated Statements of Operations and the variable expense related to financing obligations and finance lease components are included in “Interest expense, net” within our Consolidated Statements of Operations. Total monthly variable expenses were as follows: For the year ended December 31, (in millions) 2022 2021 2020 Variable expenses included in “General and administrative” $ 1.2 $ 18.7 $ 12.9 Variable expenses included in “Interest expense, net” 36.4 17.1 11.8 Total variable expenses $ 37.6 $ 35.8 $ 24.7 On January 14, 2022, the ninth amendment to the PENN Master Lease between the Company and GLPI became effective. The ninth amendment restates the definition of “Net Revenue” to clarify the inclusion of online-based revenues derived when a patron is physically present at a leased property, establishes a “floor” with respect to the PNRC Net Revenue amount used in the calculation of the annual rent escalator and PENN Percentage Rent, and modifies the rent calculations upon a lease termination event as defined in the amendment. The lease term and the four five-year optional renewal periods, which if exercised would extend the PENN Master Lease through October 31, 2048, were not modified in the ninth amendment. We concluded the ninth amendment constituted a modification event under ASC 842, which required us to reassess the classifications of the lease components and remeasure the associated lease liabilities. As a result of our reassessment of the lease classifications, (i) the land components of substantially all of the PENN Master Lease properties, which were previously classified as operating leases, are now primarily classified as finance leases, and (ii) the land and building components associated with the operations of Dayton and Mahoning Valley, which were previously classified as finance leases, are now classified as operating leases. As a result of our measurement of the associated lease liabilities, we recognized additional ROU assets and corresponding lease liabilities of $455.4 million. The building components of substantially all of the PENN Master Lease properties continue to be classified as financing obligations. On October 9, 2022, the Company entered into a binding term sheet (the “Term Sheet”) with GLPI. Pursuant to the Term Sheet, the Company and GLPI agreed to amend and restate the PENN Master Lease (the “Amended and Restated PENN Master Lease”) to (i) remove the land and buildings for Hollywood Casino Aurora (“Aurora”), Hollywood Casino Joliet (“Joliet”), Columbus, Toledo and the M Resort Spa Casino (“M Resort”); (ii) make associated adjustments to the rent after which the initial rent in the Amended and Restated PENN Master Lease will be $284.1 million, consisting of $208.2 million of Building Base Rent, $43.0 million of Land Base Rent and $32.9 million of Percentage Rent (as such terms are defined in the Amended and Restated PENN Master Lease); and (iii) terminate the existing leases associated with Hollywood Casino at The Meadows (“Meadows”) and Perryville. Subsequent to year end, the Amended and Restated PENN Master Lease was executed on February 21, 2023 with an effective date of January 1, 2023. We concluded the Amended and Restated PENN Master Lease constitutes a modification event under ASC 842 and are currently reassessing, remeasuring, and quantifying the impact of the modification to the Consolidated Financial Statements, which may be material. The modification event is expected to result in (i) a non-cash debt extinguishment charge recorded to our Consolidated Statements of Operations and corresponding change in our financing obligations on our Consolidated Balance Sheets; and (ii) a revaluation of our ROU assets and corresponding lease liabilities on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. 2023 Master Lease As part of the Term Sheet and concurrent with the execution of the Amended and Restated PENN Master Lease described above, the Company and GLPI agreed to enter into a new master lease (the “2023 Master Lease”), effective January 1, 2023, specific to the properties associated with Aurora, Joliet, Columbus, Toledo, M Resort, Meadows, and Perryville, and a master development agreement (the “Master Development Agreement”). The 2023 Master Lease has an initial term through October 31, 2033 with three subsequent five-year renewal periods on the same terms and conditions, exercisable at the Company’s option. The 2023 Master Lease will be cross-defaulted, cross-collateralized, and coterminous with the Amended and Restated PENN Master Lease, and subject to a parent guarantee. We are currently assessing, measuring, and quantifying the impact of the 2023 Master Lease to the Consolidated Financial Statements, which may be material. The 2023 Master Lease includes a base rent (the “2023 Master Lease Base Rent”) equal to $232.2 million and the Master Development Agreement contains additional rent (together with the 2023 Master Lease Base Rent, the “2023 Master Lease Rent”) equal to (i) 7.75% of any project funding received by PENN from GLPI for an anticipated relocation of PENN’s riverboat casino and related developments with respect to Aurora (the “Aurora Project”) and (ii) a percentage based on the then-current GLPI stock price, of any project funding received by PENN from GLPI for certain anticipated development projects with respect to Joliet, Columbus and M Resort (the “Other Development Projects”). The Master Development Agreement provides that GLPI will fund, upon PENN’s request, up to $225 million for the Aurora Project and up to $350 million in the aggregate for the Other Development Projects, in accordance with certain terms and conditions set forth in the Master Development Agreement. These funding obligations of GLPI expire on January 1, 2026. The 2023 Master Lease Rent will be subject to a one-time increase of $1.4 million, effective the fifth anniversary of the effective date. The 2023 Master Lease Rent will be further subject to a fixed escalator of 1.5% on November 1, 2023 and annually thereafter. The Master Development Agreement provides that PENN may elect not to proceed with a development project prior to GLPI’s commencement of any equity or debt offering or credit facility draw intended to fund such project or after such time in certain instances, provided that GLPI will be reimbursed for all costs and expenses incurred in connection with such discontinued project. The Aurora Project and the Other Development Projects are all subject to necessary regulatory and other government approvals. Pinnacle Master Lease In connection with the acquisition of Pinnacle on October 15, 2018, we assumed a triple net master lease with GLPI (the “Pinnacle Master Lease”), originally effective April 28, 2016, pursuant to which the Company leases real estate assets associated with 12 of the gaming facilities used in its operations. Upon assumption of the Pinnacle Master Lease, as amended, there were 7.5 years remaining of the initial ten-year term, with five subsequent, five-year renewal periods, on the same terms and conditions, exercisable at the Company’s option. The Company has determined that the lease term is 32.5 years. The payment structure under the Pinnacle Master Lease includes a fixed component, a portion of which is subject to an annual escalator of up to 2%, depending on the Adjusted Revenue to Rent Ratio (as defined in the Pinnacle Master Lease) of 1.8:1, and a component that is based on the performance of the properties, which is prospectively adjusted every two years by an amount equal to 4% of the average change in net revenues compared to a contractual baseline during the preceding two years (“Pinnacle Percentage Rent”). As a result of the annual escalator, effective as of May 1, 2022, for the lease year ended April 30, 2022, the fixed component of rent increased by $4.6 million, and additional ROU assets and corresponding lease liabilities of $33.2 million were recognized associated with the finance lease components. As a result of the annual escalator, effective as of May 1, 2021, for the lease year ended April 30, 2021, the fixed component of rent increased by $4.5 million, and additional ROU assets and corresponding lease liabilities of $17.2 million were recognized associated with the operating lease components. We did not incur an annual escalator on May 1, 2020 for the lease year ended April 30, 2020. The next annual escalator test date is scheduled to occur on May 1, 2023. The May 1, 2022 Pinnacle Percentage Rent reset resulted in an annual rent increase of $1.9 million, which will be in effect until the next Pinnacle Percentage Rent reset, scheduled to occur on May 1, 2024. Upon reset of the Pinnacle Percentage Rent, effective May 1, 2022, we recognized additional finance lease ROU assets and corresponding lease liabilities of $26.1 million. Effective May 1, 2020, the Pinnacle Percentage Rent resulted in an annual rent reduction of $5.0 million, and we recognized additional operating lease ROU assets and corresponding lease liabilities of $14.9 million. On January 14, 2022, the fifth amendment to the Pinnacle Master Lease between the Company and GLPI became effective. The fifth amendment restates the definition of “Net Revenue” to clarify the inclusion of online-based revenues derived when a patron is physically present at a leased property and modifies the rent calculations upon a lease termination event as defined in the amendment. The lease term and the five five-year optional renewal periods, which if exercised would extend the Pinnacle Master Lease through April 30, 2051, were not modified in the fifth amendment. We concluded the fifth amendment to the Pinnacle Master Lease constituted a modification event under ASC 842 (collectively with the ninth amendment to the PENN Master Lease, the “Lease Modification”). As a result of the modification, the land components of substantially all of the Pinnacle Master Lease properties, which were previously classified as operating leases, are now primarily classified as finance leases. As a result of our measurement of the associated lease liabilities, we recognized additional ROU assets and corresponding lease liabilities of $937.6 million. The building components of substantially all of the Pinnacle Master Lease properties continue to be classified as financing obligations. Morgantown Lease On October 1, 2020, the Company entered into a triple net lease with a subsidiary of GLPI for the land underlying our property in Morgantown, Pennsylvania (“Morgantown Lease”) in exchange for $30.0 million in rent credits to be utilized to pay rent under the Master Leases, Meadows Lease, and the Morgantown Lease, as discussed in Note 6, “Acquisitions and Dispositions.” The initial term of the Morgantown Lease is 20 years with six subsequent, five-year renewal periods, exercisable at the Company’s option. Initial annual rent under the Morgantown Lease is $3.0 million, subject to a 1.50% fixed annual escalation in each of the first three years subsequent to the facility opening, which occurred on December 22, 2021. Thereafter, the lease will be subject to an annual escalator consisting of either (i) 1.25%, if the consumer price index increase is greater than 0.50%, or (ii) zero, if the consumer price index increase is less than 0.50%. All improvements made on the land, including the constructed building, will be owned by the Company while the lease is in effect, however, on the expiration or termination of the Morgantown Lease, ownership of all tenant improvements on the land will transfer to GLPI. We determined the transaction to be a financing arrangement and upon execution of the Morgantown Lease, recorded a $30.0 million financing obligation which is included in “Long-term portion of financing obligations” within our Consolidated Balance Sheets. Lease payments are included in “Interest expense, net” within our Consolidated Statements of Operations. Perryville Lease In conjunction with the acquisition of the operations of Perryville on July 1, 2021, the Company entered into a triple net lease with GLPI for the real estate assets associated with the property (“Perryville Lease”) for initial annual rent of $7.8 million per year subject to escalation, as discussed in Note 6, “Acquisitions and Dispositions.” The initial term of the Perryville Lease is 20 years with three subsequent, five-year renewal periods, exercisable at the Company’s option. The building portion of the annual rent is subject to a fixed annual escalation of 1.50% in each of the following three years, with subsequent annual escalations of either (i) 1.25%, if the consumer price index increase is greater than 0.50%, or (ii) zero, if the consumer price index increase is less than 0.50%. We determined the transaction to be a finance lease arrangement and upon execution of the Perryville Lease, recorded a $102.9 million ROU asset and a corresponding lease liability. The interest portion of lease payments is included in “Interest expense, net” and the depreciation of the ROU asset is included in “Depreciation and amortization”, both within our Consolidated Statements of Operations. In conjunction with entering into the 2023 Master Lease as described above, the Perryville Lease was terminated effective January 1, 2023. Operating Leases In addition to the operating lease components contained within the Master Leases, the Company’s operating leases consist mainly of (i) individual triple net leases with GLPI for the real estate assets used in the operations of Tropicana (the “Tropicana Lease”), which was terminated on September 26, 2022, and Meadows (the “Meadows Lease”), (ii) individual triple net leases with VICI for the real estate assets used in the operations of Margaritaville Resort Casino (the “Margaritaville Lease”) and Hollywood Casino at Greektown (the “Greektown Lease” and collectively with the Master Leases operating lease components, the Meadows Lease, the Margaritaville Lease and the Tropicana Lease, the “Triple Net Operating Leases”), (iii) ground and levee leases to landlords which were not assumed by our REIT Landlords and remain an obligation of the Company, and (iv) building and equipment not subject to the Master Leases. Certain of our lease agreements include rental payments based on a percentage of sales over specified contractual amounts, rental payments adjusted periodically for inflation, and rental payments based on usage. The Company’s leases include options to extend the lease terms. The Company’s operating lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. Tropicana Lease Prior to the closing of the sale of PENN’s outstanding equity interest in Tropicana on September 26, 2022, the Company leased the real estate assets used in the operations of Tropicana for nominal cash rent. The term of the Tropicana Lease was for two years (subject to three one-year extensions at GLPI’s option) or until the real estate assets and the operations of the Tropicana were sold. Upon execution of the Tropicana Lease, we recorded an operating lease ROU asset of $61.6 million, which was included in “Lease right-of-use assets” within the Consolidated Balance Sheets. See Note 6, “Acquisitions and Dispositions ” for further details on the sale of PENN’s outstanding equity interest in Tropicana. Meadows Lease In connection with the acquisition of Pinnacle, we assumed the Meadows Lease, originally effective September 9, 2016. Upon assumption of the Meadows Lease, there were eight years remaining of the initial ten-year term, with three subsequent, five-year renewal options followed by one four-year renewal option on the same terms and conditions, exercisable at the Company’s option. The payment structure under the Meadows Lease includes a fixed component (“Meadows Base Rent”), which is subject to an annual escalator of up to 5% for the initial term or until the lease year in which Meadows Base Rent plus Meadows Percentage Rent (as defined below) is a total of $31.0 million, subject to certain adjustments, and up to 2% thereafter, subject to an Adjusted Revenue to Rent Ratio (as defined in the Meadows Lease) of 2.0:1. The “Meadows Percentage Rent” is based on performance, which is prospectively adjusted for the next two-year period equal to 4.0% of the average annual net revenues of the property during the trailing two-year period. We did not incur an annual escalator on October 1, 2022, 2021 or 2020, for the lease years ended September 30, 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Effective October 1, 2022 and 2020, the Meadows Percentage Rent resulted in an annual rent reduction of $0.9 million and $2.1 million, respectively. Upon reset of the Meadows Percentage Rent, effective October 1, 2022 and 2020, we recognized an additional operating lease ROU asset and corresponding lease liability of $15.4 million and $17.1 million, respectively. On January 14, 2022, the second amendment to the Meadows Lease between the Company and GLPI became effective. The second amendment restates the definition of “Net Revenue” to clarify the inclusion of online-based revenues derived when a patron is physically present at the facility. This amendment did not result in a modification event under ASC 842. In conjunction with entering into the 2023 Master Lease as described above, the Meadows Lease was terminated effective January 1, 2023. Margaritaville Lease The Margaritaville Lease has an initial term of 15 years, with four subsequent five-year renewal options on the same terms and conditions, exercisable at the Company’s option. The payment structure under the Margaritaville Lease includes a fixed component, a portion that is subject to an annual escalator of up to 2% depending on a minimum coverage floor ratio of Net Revenue to Rent of 6.1:1, and a component that is based on performance, which is prospectively adjusted every two years by an amount equal to 4% of the average change in net revenues of the property compared to a contractual baseline during the preceding two years (“Margaritaville Percentage Rent”). Subsequent to year end, on February 1, 2023, the Margaritaville Lease annual escalator test resulted in an annual rent increase of $0.4 million and the recognition of an additional operating lease ROU asset and corresponding lease liability of $2.8 million. On February 1, 2022, the Margaritaville Lease annual escalator test resulted in an annual rent increase of $0.4 million and the recognition of an additional operating lease ROU asset and corresponding lease liability of $2.9 million. We did not incur an annual escalator for the lease year ended January 31, 2021. On February 1, 2020, the annual escalator test resulted in an annual rent increase of $0.3 million and the recognition of an additional operating lease ROU asset and corresponding lease liability of $3.1 million. Subsequent to year end, on February 1, 2023, the Margaritaville Percentage Rent reset resulted in an annual rent increase of $2.3 million which will be in effect until the next Margaritaville Percentage Rent reset, scheduled to occur on February 1, 2025. Upon reset of the Margaritaville Percentage Rent, effective February 1, 2023, we recognized an additional operating lease ROU asset and corresponding lease liability of $9.8 million. On February 1, 2021, the Margaritaville Percentage Rent reset resulted in an annual rent reduction of $0.1 million which was in effect until the February 1, 2023 Margaritaville Percentage Rent reset. Upon reset of the Margaritaville Percentage Rent, effective February 1, 2021, we recognized an additional operating lease ROU asset and corresponding lease liability of $5.5 million. Greektown Lease The Greektown Lease has an initial term of 15 years, with four subsequent five-year renewal options on the same terms and conditions, exercisable at the Company’s option. The payment structure under the Greektown Lease includes a fixed component, a portion subject to an annual escalator of up to 2% depending on an Adjusted Revenue to Rent Ratio (as defined in the Greektown Lease) of 1.85:1, and a component that is based on performance, which is prospectively adjusted every two years by an amount equal to 4% of the average change in net revenues of the property compared to a contractual baseline during the preceding two years (“Greektown Percentage Rent”). In May 2020, the lease was amended to remove the escalator for the lease years ending May 31, 2022 and 2021 and to provide for a Net Revenue to Rent coverage floor to be mutually agreed upon prior to the commencement of the fourth lease year (June 1, 2022). In April 2022, the lease was further amended to provide for a Net Revenue to Rent coverage floor to be mutually agreed upon prior to the commencement of the fifth lease year (June 1, 2023). We did not incur an annual escalator on June 1, 2020 for the lease year ended May 31, 2020. On June 1, 2021, the Greektown Percentage Rent reset resulted in an annual rent reduction of $4.2 million, which will be in effect until the next Greektown Percentage Rent reset, scheduled to occur on June 1, 2023. Upon reset of the Greektown Percentage Rent, effective June 1, 2021, we recognized an additional operating lease ROU asset and corresponding lease liability of $4.1 million.
