Boyd Gaming Reports Second-Quarter 2024 Results

Boyd Gaming Corporation (NYSE: BYD) today reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2024.

Keith Smith, President and Chief Executive Officer of Boyd Gaming, said: “Our Company delivered a solid performance in the second quarter, in-line with our expectations. On a segment basis, conditions in the Las Vegas Locals market improved from the first quarter and our Las Vegas Locals business achieved market share growth in the quarter. We also produced strong growth in our Downtown Las Vegas operations and stable performance in our Midwest & South operations. Additionally, we successfully maintained operating efficiencies throughout the business, with property margins of nearly 41% during the quarter. In Louisiana, we opened our new land-based casino at Treasure Chest in early June, with strong demand since its opening. And we continued our commitment to returning capital to our shareholders, with nearly $200 million in share repurchases and dividend distributions in the second quarter. In all, we are pleased with our second-quarter performance, and remain confident in our ability to drive long-term growth across our business.”

Boyd Gaming reported second-quarter 2024 revenues of $967.5 million, up from $917.0 million in the second quarter of 2023, driven by our Online segment. The Company reported net income of $139.8 million, or $1.47 per share, for the second quarter of 2024, compared to $192.5 million, or $1.89 per share, for the year-ago period. The Company’s second-quarter 2023 results were favorably impacted by certain one-time tax benefits, with a tax rate of approximately 5% in the second quarter of 2023 compared to a rate of approximately 24% in the current quarter.

Total Adjusted EBITDAR(1) was $344.2 million in the second quarter of 2024 versus $351.4 million in the second quarter of 2023. Adjusted Earnings(1) for the second quarter of 2024 were $150.0 million, or $1.58 per share, compared to $161.3 million, or $1.58 per share, for the same period in 2023.

Operations Review

In the Las Vegas Locals segment, while market conditions improved from the first quarter, the Orleans and Gold Coast continued to face competitive pressures similar to the first quarter. Absent these competitive pressures, the Company’s Las Vegas Locals properties performed in-line with the market. Results in Downtown Las Vegas strengthened on both a sequential and year-over-year basis, with growth in Hawaiian visitation and benefits from our recent property investments. Revenues in the Midwest & South segment were up slightly from prior year, with growth in core customer play and stability in retail play. Additionally, Midwest & South segment results included contributions from the new land-based casino at Treasure Chest, which opened in early June.

In the Online segment, both revenue and Adjusted EBITDAR increased year-over-year at a double-digit pace during the quarter, as the Company continued to benefit from strong growth in FanDuel’s sports-betting operations. Growth in Managed & Other was driven by continued strong performance at Sky River Casino in northern California.

Dividend and Share Repurchase Update

Boyd Gaming paid a quarterly cash dividend of $0.17 per share on July 15, 2024, as previously announced.

As part of its ongoing share repurchase program, the Company repurchased $176 million in shares of its common stock during the second quarter of 2024. As of June 30, 2024, the Company had approximately $545 million remaining under the current share repurchase authorization.

Balance Sheet Statistics

As of June 30, 2024, Boyd Gaming had cash on hand of $280.8 million, and total debt of $3.0 billion.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Our financial presentations include the following non-GAAP financial measures:

  • EBITDA: earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization,
  • Adjusted EBITDA: EBITDA adjusted for deferred rent, share-based compensation expense, project development, preopening and writedown expenses, impairments of assets, other operating items, net, gain or loss on early extinguishments and modifications of debt and other items, net, as applicable,
  • EBITDAR: EBITDA further adjusted for rent expense associated with master leases with a real estate investment trust,
  • Adjusted EBITDAR: Adjusted EBITDA further adjusted for rent expense associated with master leases with a real estate investment trust,
  • Adjusted Earnings: net income before project development, preopening and writedown expenses, impairments of assets, other operating items, net, gain or loss on early extinguishments and modifications of debt, adjustments to the expected losses for interest on note receivable, the release of valuation allowances on deferred tax assets and other non-recurring adjustments, net, as applicable, and,
  • Adjusted Earnings Per Share (Adjusted EPS): Adjusted Earnings divided by weighted average diluted shares outstanding.

Collectively, we refer to these and other non-GAAP financial measures as the “Non-GAAP Measures.”

The Non-GAAP Measures are commonly used measures of performance in our industry that we believe, when considered with measures calculated in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP), provide our investors with a more complete understanding of our operating results and facilitates comparisons between us and our competitors. We provide this information to investors to enable them to perform comparisons of our past, present and future operating results and as a means to evaluate the results of core on-going operations. We have historically reported these measures to our investors and believe that the continued inclusion of the Non-GAAP Measures provides consistency in our financial reporting. We also believe this information is useful to investors in allowing greater transparency related to significant measures used by our management in their financial and operational decision-making, their evaluation of total company and individual property performance, in the evaluation of incentive compensation and in the annual budget process. Management also uses Non-GAAP Measures in the evaluation of potential acquisitions and dispositions. We believe these measures continue to be used by investors in their assessment of our operating performance and the valuation of our company.

The use of Non-GAAP Measures has certain limitations. Our presentation of the Non-GAAP Measures may be different from the presentation used by other companies and therefore comparability may be limited. While excluded from certain of the Non-GAAP Measures, depreciation and amortization expense, interest expense, income taxes and other items have been and will be incurred. Each of these items should also be considered in the overall evaluation of our results. Additionally, the Non-GAAP Measures do not consider capital expenditures and other investing activities and should not be considered as a measure of our liquidity. We compensate for these limitations by providing the relevant disclosure of our depreciation and amortization, interest and income taxes, capital expenditures and other items both in our reconciliations to the historical GAAP financial measures and in our consolidated financial statements, all of which should be considered when evaluating our performance. We do not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking Non-GAAP Measures to the corresponding forward-looking GAAP measure due to our inability to project special charges and certain expenses.

The Non-GAAP Measures are to be used in addition to and in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP. The Non-GAAP Measures should not be considered as an alternative to net income, operating income, or any other operating performance measure prescribed by GAAP, nor should these measures be relied upon to the exclusion of GAAP financial measures. The Non-GAAP Measures reflect additional ways of viewing our operations that we believe, when viewed with our GAAP results and the reconciliations to the corresponding historical GAAP financial measures, provide a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business than could be obtained absent this disclosure. Management strongly encourages investors to review our financial information in its entirety and not to rely on a single financial measure.
