Exhibit 99.3

 

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

The following unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated combined financial statements give effect to (i) Penn National Gaming, Inc.’s (“Penn” or “the Company”) acquisition of Pinnacle Entertainment, Inc. (“Pinnacle”) (defined herein as the “merger”) which closed on October 15, 2018, (ii) divestitures of the membership interests of certain Pinnacle subsidiaries which operate the casinos known as Ameristar Casino Resort Spa St. Charles (Missouri), Ameristar Casino Hotel Kansas City (Missouri), Belterra Casino Resort (Indiana), and Belterra Park (Ohio) to Boyd Gaming Corporation (herein defined as ‘Boyd Divestitures’), (iii) the sale of Penn’s Plainridge real estate assets to Gaming and Leisure Properties Inc. “GLPI” of which was subsequently leased back to a Penn subsidiary, (iv) the acquisition of the Belterra Park Real Estate by GLPI and (v) Penn’s financing obligation to GLPI related to the leaseback of the Plainridge real estate assets (collectively, the “transactions”). For purposes of the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated combined financial statements, the Boyd divestitures, the sale of Penn’s Plainridge real estate assets to GLPI of which was subsequently leased back to a Penn subsidiary and the related financing obligation to GLPI related to the leaseback of the Plainridge real estate assets are assumed to be completed simultaneously with the merger. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated combined balance sheet gives effect to the transactions as if they had occurred on June 30, 2018, and the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statements of combined operations for the six months ended June 30, 2018, and the year ended December 31, 2017, give effect to the transactions as if they had occurred on January 1, 2017, the beginning of the earliest period presented. The following unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated combined financial information is based on the historical consolidated financial statements of Penn and Pinnacle, and the assumptions and adjustments set forth in the accompanying explanatory notes. The Boyd divestitures are presented from the historical perspective of Pinnacle and are not intended to be indicative of how the transferred assets would operate on a stand-alone basis.

 

The historical consolidated financial statements have been adjusted in the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated combined financial statements to give effect to pro forma events that are: (1) directly attributable to the transactions; (2) factually supportable; and (3) with respect to the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statements of combined operations, expected to have a continuing impact on the combined results of Penn and Pinnacle. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated combined financial information for the transactions have been developed from and should be read in conjunction with Penn’s and Pinnacle’s unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements contained in Penn and Pinnacle’s Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2018, respectively, and the Penn audited consolidated financial statements contained in Penn’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017, and Pinnacle’s audited consolidated financial statements contained in Pinnacle’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017.

 

The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated combined financial information has been prepared by Penn using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, referred to as GAAP. Penn has been treated as the acquirer in the merger for accounting purposes. The acquisition accounting is dependent upon certain valuation and other studies and is in process of being finalized. The assets and liabilities of Pinnacle have been measured based on various preliminary estimates using assumptions that Penn believes are reasonable based on 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 consolidated combined financial statements and the combined company’s future results of operations and financial position. The pro forma adjustments are preliminary and have been made solely for the purpose of providing unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated combined financial statements prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC.

 

Penn intends to finalize the necessary valuation and other studies 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 merger.

 

The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated 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 transactions nor does it include any costs associated with severance, restructuring or integration activities resulting from the transactions. However, such costs will affect the combined company following the transactions in the period the costs are incurred.

PENN NATIONAL GAMING, INC.

 

NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED COMBINED
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

(Dollars In Thousands, Except For Share Price and Per Share Data)

 

Note 1—Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated combined financial information is intended to reflect the impact of the merger on Penn’s consolidated financial statements and presents the pro forma financial position and results of operations of Penn based on the historical financial statements and accounting records of Penn and Pinnacle after giving effect to the transactions.

 

Merger-related pro forma adjustments are included only to the extent they are directly attributable to the transactions, factually supportable and with respect to the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statement of combined operations, expected to have a continuing impact on the results of the combined company. The accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated combined financial information is presented for illustrative purposes only.

 

The merger will be accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting with Penn considered the acquirer. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated combined financial information reflects the preliminary assessment of fair values and useful lives assigned to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The detailed valuation studies necessary to arrive at required estimates of fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed from Pinnacle in the merger have not been completed. Significant assets and liabilities that are subject to preparation and completion of valuation studies to determine appropriate fair value adjustments include property and equipment, intangible assets and the financing obligation associated with the Pinnacle master lease. Changes to the fair values of these assets and liabilities will also result in changes to goodwill and deferred income taxes.

 

Coincident with the closing of the merger, Penn completed the Boyd divestitures by divesting the membership interests of certain Pinnacle subsidiaries which operate the casinos known as Ameristar Casino Resort Spa St. Charles (Missouri), Ameristar Casino Hotel Kansas City (Missouri), Belterra Casino Resort (Indiana), and Belterra Park (Ohio) to Boyd. Additionally, at the closing of the merger, (i) GLPI acquired the real estate associated with the Plainridge Park Casino for $250 million, and concurrently leased back to Penn pursuant to the amended Pinnacle master lease for a fixed annual rent of $25 million and (ii) GLPI acquired the real estate assets of Belterra Park from Penn for approximately $58 million.

 

The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated combined balance sheet gives effect to the transactions as if they had occurred on June 30, 2018, and the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statements of combined operations for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and the year ended December 31, 2017 give effect to the transactions as if they had occurred on January 1, 2017, the beginning of the earliest period presented.

 

Items Not Adjusted in the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information

 

The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated combined financial information does not include any adjustment for liabilities or related costs that may result from integration activities at this time, since management has not completed the process of making these assessments. Significant liabilities and related costs may ultimately be recorded for employee severance, exit or integration activities following the merger. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated combined balance sheet only includes adjustments for transaction-related costs that are directly attributable to the transactions and are factually supportable.

 

Penn anticipates that the merger will result in significant annual operating synergies that would be unachievable without completing the transactions. Penn currently expects that approximately $100 million of annual cost savings

 


 

and synergies will be realized within two years of completion of the merger. No assurance can be made that Penn will be able to achieve these synergies or when they will be realized, and no such synergies have been reflected in the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated combined financial information.

 

Financing Agreement

 

In connection with the transactions, Penn entered into an Incremental Joinder dated October 15, 2018 among Penn, certain subsidiaries of Penn as grantors, Bank of America, N.A. as administrative agent, and a lending party group.  The Incremental Joinder provides Penn with (i) $430.2 million of incremental borrowings of senior secured term loan A facility; and (ii) $836.3 of incremental borrowings of senior secured term loan B facility.

 

The interest rates per annum applicable to the loans are, at Penn’s option, equal to either a LIBOR rate or a base rate, plus an applicable margin. The applicable margin for the Term Loan A Facility ranges from 1.25% to 3.00% per annum for LIBOR loans and 0.25% to 2.00% per annum for base rate loans, in each case depending on Penn’s total net leverage ratio. The applicable margin for the Term Loan B Facility is 2.25% per annum for LIBOR loans and 1.25% per annum for base rate loans. The Term Loan B Facility is subject to a LIBOR “floor” of zero. The loans under the Term Loan A Facility were issued with an upfront fee of 0.50% on the amount of such loans, and the loans under the Term Loan B Facility were issued with an upfront fee of 0.25% of the amount of such loans.  The interest rate at the closing for the Term Loan A Facility was 3.83% and the Term Loan B Facility had a rate of 4.58%.

 

Note 2—The Merger

 

On the closing date of October 15, 2018, Merger Sub, a wholly owned subsidiary of Penn formed for the purpose of effecting the merger, merged with and into Pinnacle.  At closing, each share of Pinnacle common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time (other than excluded shares) was converted into the right to receive 0.420 of a share of Penn common stock, with cash paid in lieu of the issuance of fractional shares of Penn common stock, and $20.00 in cash without interest and subject to applicable withholding taxes.

 

Merger Purchase Price

 

The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated combined balance sheet has been adjusted to reflect the estimated fair values of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the merger and the excess of the consideration over these fair values is recorded to goodwill. The fair value of the merger consideration, or the purchase price, in the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated combined financial information is preliminarily valued to be approximately $2.8 billion.  At the October 15, 2018 closing date, each share of Pinnacle common stock (other than treasury shares held by Pinnacle) automatically converted into the right to receive the merger consideration, consisting of (1) 0.420 of a fully paid and nonassessable share of Penn common stock plus (2) $20.00 in cash. The stock price used to determine the value of the stock portion of the merger consideration, for purposes of the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated combined financial information, was the Company’s closing stock price on the October 15, 2018.

 

The table below presents the preliminary purchase price as if the merger had closed on June 30, 2018, along with a preliminary allocation of the purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed.

(i)                                     Intangible assets consist of gaming licenses, trade names, and player relationships.

(ii)           Goodwill is calculated as the difference between the acquisition date fair value of the total consideration expected to be transferred and the aggregate values assigned to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Goodwill is not amortized.

 

Upon completion of the fair value assessment following the merger, Penn anticipates the finalized fair values of the net assets acquired will differ from the preliminary assessment outlined above. Generally, changes to the initial estimates of fair value of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed will be recorded to those assets and liabilities with offsetting adjustments recorded to deferred taxes and goodwill.

 

The tax impacts of the merger was estimated based on applicable law as in effect on June 30, 2018. Penn assumed a 24% statutory income tax rate when estimating the deferred tax impacts of the merger which was the statutory tax rate in effect at June 30, 2018.

 

Note 3—Merger-Related Pro Forma Adjustments

 

The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated combined financial information reflects the following adjustments related to the transactions.

 

(1)         Fair value of the assets held for sale was determined to be $569,900, which represents the net proceeds from the sale of the divestiture membership interests to Boyd Gaming (See Note 5 for further details).

 

The proceeds from the sale of the divestiture membership interests to Boyd Gaming are reflected as a pro forma adjustment to (i) cash and cash equivalents and (ii) assets held for sale to give effect to the divestiture transaction as if it had occurred on June 30, 2018.

(i)            Penn received proceeds from the sale of Belterra Park’s real estate based on the product of nine multiplied by the annual rent obligation to be paid by Boyd Gaming or $57,684.

(ii)           Penn received gross proceeds of $250 million from the sale of Penn’s existing Plainridge real estate assets to GLPI which was subsequently leased back to a subsidiary of Penn pursuant to the Pinnacle master lease amendment for $25 million in fixed annual rent. The tax liability associated with this transaction was determined using the statutory tax rates in effect as of June 30, 2018.

(iii)          Amount includes contractual call premium payment on Pinnacle Notes of approximately $28 million.

(iv)                              Represents transaction costs incurred as part of the merger.

(4)         Financing obligation to GLPI and interest expense—The preliminary fair value of the financing obligation to GLPI associated with the Pinnacle master lease excluding divestitures was determined to be $3,427,016 which was calculated based on the future minimum lease payments discounted at 7.84%.  This rate was estimated as Penn’s incremental borrowing rate for the remaining lease term at the acquisition date. In conjunction with the merger, the Pinnacle master lease was amended to reflect, among other things, the inclusion of the Plainridge real estate assets and subsequently leased back to a subsidiary of Penn.

Penn assessed the fair value of Pinnacle’s gaming licenses assets using the Greenfield Method under the income approach. The Greenfield Method estimates the fair value of the gaming license using a discounted cash flow model assuming the Company built a casino with similar utility to that of the existing facility. The method assumes a theoretical start-up company going into business without any assets other than the intangible asset being valued. As such, the value of the gaming license is a function of the following items:

 

· Projected revenues and operating cash flows (including an allocation of Pinnacle’s projected financing payments);

· Theoretical construction costs and duration;

· Pre-opening expenses; and

· Discounting that reflects the level of risk associated with receiving future cash flows attributable to the license.

 

Penn has preliminarily assigned an indefinite useful life to the gaming licenses, in accordance with its review of the applicable guidance of ASC 350. The standard required Penn to consider, among other things, the expected use of the asset, the expected useful life of other related asset or asset group, any legal, regulatory, or contractual provisions that may limit the useful life, Penn’s own historical experience in renewing similar arrangements, the effects of obsolescence, demand and other economic factors, and the maintenance expenditures required to obtain the expected cash flows. In that analysis, Penn determined that no legal, regulatory, contractual, competitive, economic or other factors limit the useful lives of these intangible assets. Pinnacle currently has licenses in Pennsylvania, Iowa, Mississippi, Missouri, Louisiana, Colorado, Indiana, and Nevada. The renewal of each state’s gaming license depends on a number of factors, including payment of certain fees and taxes, providing certain information to the state’s gaming regulator, and meeting certain inspection requirements. However, Penn’s historical experience has not indicated, nor does Penn expect, any limitations regarding its ability to continue to renew each license. No other competitive, contractual, or economic factor limits the useful lives of these assets. Accordingly, Penn has preliminarily concluded that the useful lives of these licenses are indefinite.

 

Trade Names are valued using the relief from royalty method, which presumes that without ownership of such trademarks, Penn would have to make a stream of payments to a brand or franchise owner in return for the right to use their name. By virtue of this asset, Penn avoids any such payments and records the related intangible value of Penn’s ownership of the brand name. The primary assumptions in the valuation included revenue, pre-tax royalty rate, and tax expense.

 

The player relationships asset represents the estimated value of the acquired customer database. The Company used a replacement cost method to estimate the fair value for this intangible asset and is amortizing the asset over two years in the unaudited pro forma statements of combined operations.

 

Adjustments to amortization expense for definite-lived intangibles were based on comparing the historical amortization recorded during the periods presented to the revised amortization. The revised amortization was based on the estimated fair value amortized over the respective useful lives of the intangible assets. The following table illustrates pro forma adjustments to amortization expense.

Note 4—Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Statement Reclassification Adjustments

 

Certain reclassifications have been recorded to the historical financial statements of Pinnacle to provide comparability and consistency for the anticipated post-combined company presentation.

 

(a)         Reclassifications were made between certain Pinnacle current assets and long term assets to provide consistency in presentation.

 

(b)         Reclassifications were made between Pinnacle’s (i) other assets and (ii) long-term debt, net of current maturities and debt issuance costs related to certain deferred financing costs to provide consistency in presentation.

 

(c)          Reclassifications were made between certain Pinnacle current and long-term liabilities and current assets to provide consistency in presentation.

 

(d)         Reclassifications were made between revenue components to reclassify certain revenue streams consistently between the two companies. These included combining Pinnacle’s (i) food and beverage revenue, (ii) lodging revenue and (iii) retail, entertaining and other revenue into one revenue financial statement line item to provide consistency in presentation.

 

Reclassifications were also made among expense components to reclassify certain expenses consistently between the two companies. These included combining Pinnacle’s (i) food and beverage expense, (ii) lodging expense and (iii) retail, entertaining and other expense into one expense financial statement line item to provide consistency in presentation.

 

(e)          Reclassifications were made with respect to Pinnacle’s (i) food, beverage, hotel and other revenue and (ii) promotional allowances to arrive at net revenues to provide consistency in presentation.

 

(f)           Reclassifications were made between certain (i) goodwill and intangible impairment charges; and (ii) pre-opening, development and other costs and general and administrative expense.

 

Further review may identify additional reclassifications that when conformed could have a material impact on the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated combined financial information of the combined company. At this time, Penn is not aware of any reclassifications that would have a material impact on the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated combined financial information that are not reflected as pro forma adjustments.

 

Note 5—The Boyd Divestitures

 

The divestiture agreement provides that, upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the divestiture agreement, Boyd Purchaser acquired the outstanding membership interests of the divestiture subsidiaries and certain other assets primarily related to the business of the divestiture subsidiaries and assume certain other liabilities related to the business of the divestiture subsidiaries. Immediately following the Boyd divestitures, Boyd owns 100% of the outstanding membership interests of the divestiture subsidiaries which own and operate Ameristar St. Charles, Ameristar Kansas City, Belterra, and Belterra Park. The net proceeds for the Boyd divestitures is $569.9 million, which represents the divestiture subsidiaries’ EBITDA for the twelve-months period ending on December 30, 2017 multiplied by 6.25, net of certain working capital adjustments and tax liabilities associated with the divesture.

 

The unaudited financial condensed consolidated combined information reflects the preliminary allocations of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses directly attributable to the divestiture properties and includes the necessary reclassifications to conform to Penn historical presentation, where applicable.
