Forward guidance

Company expects the Illinois Gaming Board to choose its preferred developer in 2021, seemingly most likely in the spring or summer.

Tailwinds

  • The Company believes its American Place proposal is the most creative and dynamic.
  • The Company expects its proposal should generate the greatest amount of investment, tax revenues and jobs for Waukegan and its surrounding communities.
  • The Company recently executed a commitment letter to fund American Place, including both a temporary casino and the permanent facility.
  • The Company would invest $25 million in the project as equity, will own no less than 60% of the project, and will receive management fees for operating the casino and related amenities.
  • All of the project financing is anticipated to be limited to the Waukegan project and would not be guaranteed by Full House or its other subsidiaries.

Headwinds

  • Our ability to repay our substantial indebtedness
  • The adverse impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business, constructions projects, financial condition and operating results, including on our ability to continue as a going concern
  • Changes in guest visitation or spending patterns due to COVID-19 or other health or other concerns, including a decrease in overall demand after the initial spike following the reopening our casinos
  • The impact of social distancing requirements and other health and safety protocols implemented at our properties, including a reduction in our operating margins
  • The potential of increased regulatory and other burdens to address the direct and indirect impacts of COVID-19 pandemic
