Mohegan Gaming & Entertainment Announces Third Quarter Fiscal 2017 Operating Results


UNCASVILLE, Conn., July 27, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Mohegan Gaming & Entertainment, or MGE, the owner and operator of Mohegan Sun in Uncasville, Connecticut, and Mohegan Sun Pocono in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania, announced today the operating results for its third fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2017.

"We were pleased with our third quarter results which continue to reflect strong underlying operating fundamentals, particularly in Connecticut where revenues and EBITDA growth continue to outpace the region," said Mitchell Grossinger Etess, Chief Executive Officer of Mohegan Gaming & Entertainment. "During the quarter, the company continued to diversify its earnings base with the successful opening of ilani Casino Resort in Washington State. Additionally, construction of the Mohegan Sun Exposition and Convention Center commenced late last quarter and is on budget and on schedule to open next summer. Staying in Connecticut, work has started on our joint venture development in East Windsor which was recently signed into law by the Governor. Looking internationally, the company is well into the planning stage of its Korean joint venture, Project Inspire, where we anticipate breaking ground before the end of calendar 2017."

Consolidated operating results for the third quarter ended June 30, 2017 (unaudited):

The growth in Adjusted EBITDA, income from operations and net income attributable to MGE compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2016 was principally driven by strong gaming and non-gaming results at Mohegan Sun. Net income attributable to MGE also reflects lower interest expense.

The increases in Adjusted EBITDA and income from operations were driven by strong gaming and non-gaming results. The growth in gaming revenues reflected a significant year-over-year increase in table game revenues, combined with higher slot revenues. Table game revenues benefited from improved hold percentage and higher volumes. The growth in non-gaming revenues reflected strong overall business activity driven, in part, by the additional hotel room capacity added by our new 400-room Earth Hotel which opened on November 10, 2016. These results were partially offset by higher payroll costs. Adjusted EBITDA margin increased 210 basis points to 29.0% for the quarter ended June 30, 2017 from 26.9% in the third quarter of fiscal 2016.

Adjusted EBITDA and income from operations increased despite the decline in net revenues due to our continued efforts to contain operating costs and expenses such as payroll costs and certain casino marketing and promotional expenses. The declines in gaming and non-gaming revenues were driven by lower overall business volumes. Adjusted EBITDA margin increased 330 basis points to 21.7% for the quarter ended June 30, 2017 from 18.4% in the third quarter of fiscal 2016.

Other Information

Liquidity 
As of June 30, 2017, MGE held cash and cash equivalents of $­87.4 million compared to $83.7 million as of September 30, 2016. As of June 30, 2017, $13.0 million was drawn on MGE's $170.0 million revolving credit facility, while no amounts were drawn on MGE's $25.0 million line of credit. As of June 30, 2017, letters of credit issued under the revolving credit facility totaled $48.4 million, of which no amounts were drawn. Inclusive of letters of credit, which reduce borrowing availability under the revolving credit facility, MGE had approximately $108.6 million of borrowing capacity under its revolving credit facility and line of credit as of June 30, 2017.

Interest Expense
Interest expense decreased by $6.2 million, or 18.4%, to $27.7 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2017 compared to $33.9 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2016. The reduction in interest expense was attributable to lower weighted average interest rate driven by MGE's October 2016 refinancing and April 2017 repricing transactions. Weighted average interest rate was 6.4% for the quarter ended June 30, 2017 compared to 7.8% in the third quarter of fiscal 2016.

Adjusted EBITDA Explanation:
Net income before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, or EBITDA, is a commonly used measure of performance in the casino and hospitality industry. EBITDA is not a measure of performance calculated in accordance with GAAP. MGE historically has evaluated its operating performance with the non-GAAP measure, Adjusted EBITDA, which as used in this press release, represents net income before interest, depreciation and amortization, share-based compensation expense, gain or loss on disposition of assets, pre-opening costs and expenses, loss on modification and early extinguishment of debt, loss from unconsolidated affiliates, other non-operating income and expense and Adjusted EBITDA attributable to non-controlling interests.

Adjusted EBITDA provides an additional way to evaluate MGE's operations and, when viewed with both MGE's GAAP results and the reconciliations provided, MGE believes that it provides a more complete understanding of its business than could be otherwise obtained absent this disclosure. Adjusted EBITDA is presented solely as a supplemental disclosure because: (1) MGE believes it enhances an overall understanding of MGE's past and current financial performance; (2) MGE believes it is a useful tool for investors to assess the operating performance of the business in comparison to other operators within the casino and hospitality industry since Adjusted EBITDA excludes certain items that may not be indicative of MGE's operating results; (3) measures that are comparable to Adjusted EBITDA are often used as an important basis for the valuation of casino and hospitality companies; and (4) MGE uses Adjusted EBITDA internally to evaluate the performance of its operating personnel and management and as a benchmark to evaluate its operating performance in comparison to its competitors.

The use of Adjusted EBITDA has certain limitations. Adjusted EBITDA should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for or superior to, any GAAP financial measure including net income (as an indicator of MGE's performance) or cash flows provided by operating activities (as an indicator of MGE's liquidity), nor should it be considered as an indicator of MGE's overall financial performance. MGE's calculation of Adjusted EBITDA is likely to be different from the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA or other similarly titled measurements used by other casino and hospitality companies, and therefore, comparability may be limited. Adjusted EBITDA eliminates certain items from net income, such as interest and depreciation and amortization. Each of these items has been incurred in the past, will continue to be incurred in the future and should be considered in the overall evaluation of MGE's results. MGE compensates for these limitations by providing relevant disclosures of items excluded in the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA, both in its reconciliations to the GAAP financial measure of net income and in its consolidated financial statements, all of which should be considered when evaluating its results. MGE strongly encourages investors to review its financial information in its entirety and not to rely on a single financial measure.
