**<u>PART I</u>**

**ITEM 1. BUSINESS**

**Overview**

Churchill Downs Incorporated ("CDI" or the "Company") has been creating extraordinary entertainment experiences for nearly 150 years, beginning with the Company's most iconic and enduring asset, the Kentucky Derby. Headquartered in Louisville, Kentucky, CDI has expanded through the development of live and historical racing entertainment venues, the growth of the TwinSpires horse racing online wagering business and the operation and development of regional casino gaming properties.

**Business Segments** 

The Company manages its business through three reportable segments: Live and Historical Racing, TwinSpires, and Gaming. Financial information about these segments is set forth in Part II, Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, contained within this Report. In the first quarter of 2022, we updated our operating segments to reflect the internal management reporting used by our chief operating decision maker to evaluate results of operations and to assess performance and allocate resources. During the first quarter of 2022, our chief operating decision maker decided to include the results of our United Tote business in the TwinSpires segment as we evolve our strategy to integrate the United Tote offering with TwinSpires Horse Racing, which we believe will create additional business-to-business revenue opportunities. The prior year results in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss) conform to this presentation. Further discussion of segment financial information, and our planned investments in segment properties, is set forth in Part II, Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contained within this Report.

During the fourth quarter of 2022, we updated our operating segments to reflect the geographies in which we operate. This change is consistent with the internal management reporting used by our chief operating decision maker to evaluate results of operations and to assess performance and allocate resources. Our internal management reporting changed primarily due to the continued growth of our business, which resulted in our chief operating decision maker's desire to review the results of the Company on a geographical basis within each reportable segment. The commentary within Management's Discussion and Analysis has been updated to conform to this change.

***Live and Historical Racing***

The Live and Historical Racing segment includes live and historical pari-mutuel racing related revenue and expenses at Churchill Downs Racetrack and our historical racing properties in Kentucky, Virginia, and New Hampshire.

Our Live and Historical Racing properties earn commissions primarily from pari-mutuel wagering on live and historical races, simulcast fees earned from other wagering sites, fees from racing event-related services including admissions, personal seat licenses, sponsorships, television rights, and other miscellaneous services, and revenue from food and beverage services.

*Churchill Downs Racetrack*

Churchill Downs Racetrack is in Louisville, Kentucky and is an internationally known thoroughbred racing operation best known as the home of our iconic flagship event, the Kentucky Derby. We have conducted thoroughbred racing continuously at Churchill Downs Racetrack since 1875. The Kentucky Derby is the longest continuously held annual sporting event in the U.S. and is the first race of the annual series of races for 3-year-old thoroughbreds known as the Triple Crown. The demographic profile of our guests, global television viewership and long-running nature of this iconic event are attractive to sponsors and corporate partners, especially those with luxury and/or marquee brands.

We conducted 65 live race days in 2020, 71 live race days in 2021 and 76 live race days in 2022. In 2023, we anticipate conducting up to 79 live race days.

Churchill Downs Racetrack is located on 175 acres and has a one-mile dirt track, a 7/8-mile turf track, a stabling area, and a variety of areas, structures, and buildings that provide reserved seating for approximately 59,000 of our patrons. Churchill Downs Racetrack has one of the largest 4K video boards in the world sitting 80 feet above the ground and measuring 171 feet wide by 90 feet tall. This video board provides views of the finish line and the entire race for on-track guests, including those in the infield and guests along the entire front side of the racetrack. The facility also has permanent lighting to accommodate night races. We have a saddling paddock, and the stable area has barns sufficient to accommodate 1,400 horses and a 114-room dormitory for backstretch personnel. We have a state-of-the-art equine medical center and quarantine barns on the backside area of Churchill Downs Racetrack which reinforces our ongoing commitment to equine safety and supports our long-term international growth strategy. The Churchill Downs Racetrack facility also includes a simulcast wagering facility. We also own 83 acres of land at our auxiliary training facility, which is five miles from Churchill Downs Racetrack.

In 2002, we transferred title of the Churchill Downs Racetrack facility to the City of Louisville, Kentucky and entered into a 30-year lease for the facility as part of the financing of improvements to the Churchill Downs Racetrack facility. We can reacquire the facility at any time for $1.00 subject to the terms of the lease.

------

In July 2021, we announced three major multi-year capital investments to transform key areas of Churchill Downs Racetrack: The Homestretch Club, the First Turn Experience, and the Paddock Project. The Company invested $36.0 million in the new Homestretch Club which opened for the 148th Kentucky Derby in May 2022. The Homestretch Club project converted 5,200 outdoor bleacher seats into 3,250 premium reserved seats with all-inclusive amenities. The new premium reserved seats include 2,550 stadium club seats, 66 covered terraced dining tables for up to 440 guests, 30 Trackside Lounges for up to 200 guests offering a "courtside seat" experience, five private 60-person VIP Hospitality Lounges as upgrades and an 18,600 square-foot indoor hospitality space with a grand staircase and 95-foot feature bar.

The Company is investing $90.0 million in the First Turn Experience. The First Turn Experience will provide additional permanent stadium seating and a new track-level hospitality club replacing current temporary Oaks and Derby seating at the first turn of the racetrack. We plan to replace 3,400 temporary seats with 5,100 permanent covered stadium seats and a new 50,000 square-foot climate-controlled hospitality venue with reserved dining room tables, a trackside viewing terrace, and two new seating concourses to allow for better guest circulation and amenities for an incremental 2,000 reserved seats. The First Turn Experience is scheduled for completion for the 149<sup>th</sup> Kentucky Derby in May 2023.

The Company is also investing up to $200.0 million in a Paddock Project to enhance the experience for nearly every guest. The redesigned area will improve the flow of guests throughout the paddock. The Paddock Project will create a larger paddock walking ring for viewing the horses prior to the races, a new Paddock Club in the area on the first floor under the Twin Spires that will provide views of the paddock and views of the tunnel that the horses walk through, new hospitality and other amenities for guests in certain areas of the third floor clubhouse seats, and new terraces overlooking the paddock. The new Paddock Project is scheduled for completion for the 150<sup>th</sup> Kentucky Derby in May 2024.

**Competition**

***Overview***

We operate in a highly competitive industry with many participants, some of which have financial and other resources that are greater than ours. The industry faces competition from a variety of sources for discretionary consumer spending, including spectator sports, sports wagering and other entertainment and gaming options. Our brick-and-mortar casinos compete with traditional and Native American casinos, VLTs, state-sponsored lotteries, and other forms of legalized gaming in the U.S. and other jurisdictions.

Legalized gambling is currently permitted in various forms in many states and Canada. Other jurisdictions could legalize gambling in the future, and established gaming jurisdictions could award additional gaming licenses or permit the expansion of existing gaming operations. If additional gaming opportunities become available near our racing or gaming operations, such gaming operations could have a material adverse impact on our business.

In May 2018, the United States Supreme Court struck down the 1992 Professional and Amateur Sports Protection Act, which had effectively banned sports wagering in most states. Removal of the ban gives states the authority to authorize sports wagering.

***Live and Historical Racing***

In 2022 and 2021, approximately 34,000 thoroughbred horse races were conducted in the U.S. As a racetrack operator, we compete for horses with other racetracks running live racing meets at or near the same time as our races. Our ability to compete is substantially dependent on the racing calendar, number of horses racing and purse sizes. As a content provider, we compete for wagering dollars in the simulcast market with other racetracks conducting races at or near the same times as our races. In recent years, competition has increased as more states legalize gaming and allow slot machines at racetracks with mandatory purse contributions. Our HRM entertainment venues in Kentucky, Virginia, and New Hampshire compete with regional casinos in the area and other forms of legal and illegal gaming.

***TwinSpires***

*Horse Racing*

Our TwinSpires Horse Racing business competes with other ADW businesses for both customers and racing content, as well as brick-and-mortar racetracks, casinos, OTBs, and other forms of legal and illegal sports betting.

*Sports and Casino*

Our TwinSpires Sports and Casino business competes for customers with retail, mobile and online offerings from commercial brick-and-mortar casinos and racetracks. We also compete with daily fantasy sports gaming companies that are expanding into mobile and online sports betting and iGaming, international sports betting businesses looking to expand into the U.S. market, and other forms of legal and illegal sports betting and iGaming operations.

------

***Gaming***

Our Gaming properties operate in highly competitive environments and primarily compete for customers with other casinos in the surrounding regional gaming markets. Our Gaming properties compete to a lesser extent with state-sponsored lotteries, off-track wagering, card parlors, online gambling, and other forms of legalized gaming in the U.S.

**Human Capital** 

We believe our human capital is material to our operations and core to the long-term success of our Company. Our focus is on attracting innovative and collaborative team members who want to build their skills in a successful and growing set of businesses focused on creating unique experiences for our guests.

***Our People*** 

As of December 31, 2022, we had a total of approximately 7,000 team members, of which 5,500 are full-time employees. As of December 31, 2022, the Live and Historical Racing segment had approximately 2,410 team members, the TwinSpires segment had 410 team members, and the Gaming segment had 3,900 team members. Nearly three-quarters of the Live and Historical Racing segment team members are full-time employees and nearly all the TwinSpires and Gaming segment team members are full-time employees. The Company's corporate staff consists of approximately 270 employees, approximately 260 of which are full-time. The number of seasonal employees fluctuates significantly through the course of the year primarily due to the seasonal nature of our businesses. We have the highest level of seasonal team members during the second quarter when we traditionally run the Kentucky Derby.

As of December 31, 2022, approximately 770 full-time employees were covered by 19 collective bargaining agreements. We have experienced no material interruptions of operations due to disputes with our team members.

***Diversity and Inclusion***

We believe that a diverse workforce fosters innovation and cultivates a high-performance culture that leverages the unique perspectives of every team member to profitably grow our businesses. The Company's Board of Directors and executive management team includes diverse individuals based on gender and race. The Company benefits from the diverse experiences of our directors and management that individually and collectively create a high-performance culture focused on executing our strategic priorities to protect and grow our businesses effectively and efficiently.

We believe diversity and inclusion helps the Company attract the best talent to grow our businesses and enables our businesses to attract and delight customers and consumers. The Kentucky Derby is a pillar of our community that provides the opportunity for our team members and the community to raise significant funding for charities that support important aspects of our broader communities including fostering diversity and inclusion, food, shelter, education, and health related non-profits. The Company also provides donations to non-profit organizations that support these initiatives within our communities.

***Talent Acquisition, Development and Retention***

We invest in attracting, developing, and retaining our team members. Our philosophy is to communicate a clear purpose and strategy, set challenging goals, drive accountability, continuously assess, develop, and advance talent, and to embrace a leadership-driven talent strategy. Our Company enables team members to grow in their current roles as well as to have opportunities to build new skills in other parts of the Company. We review talent and succession plans with our Chief Executive Officer and Board of Directors periodically throughout the year. The process focuses on accelerating talent development, strengthening succession pipelines, and advancing diversity in gender, race, and experience.

***Compensation, Benefits, Safety and Wellness***

We strive to offer market competitive salaries and wages for our team members, and we offer comprehensive health and retirement benefits to eligible employees. Our core health and welfare benefits are supplemented with specific programs to manage or improve common health conditions and to provide a variety of voluntary benefits and paid time away from work programs. We also provide several innovative programs designed to promote physical, emotional, and financial well-being. Our commitment to the safety of our employees, customers, and community remains a top priority, and we have safety programs at all our properties to facilitate identification and implementation of safety practices.

**Governmental Regulations and Potential Legislative Changes** 

We are subject to various federal, state, local, and international laws and regulations that affect our businesses. The ownership, operation, and management of our Live and Historical Racing, TwinSpires, and Gaming segments are subject to regulation under the laws and regulations of each of the jurisdictions in which we operate. Our businesses and properties are also subject to legislative actions at both the federal and state level.

***Live and Historical Racing Regulations***

Horse racing is a highly regulated industry. In the U.S., interstate pari-mutuel wagering on horse racing is subject to the Interstate Horseracing Act of 1978, as amended in 2000 ("IHA"). Under the IHA, racetracks and ADWs can accept interstate off-track wagers if the racetracks and ADWs have approvals from (1) the host horse racetrack including a written agreement

------

with the horsemen's group, if applicable, (2) the host racing commission, and (3) the off-track racing commission. If these requirements are met, racetracks can commingle wagers from different racetracks and wagering facilities and broadcast horse racing events to other licensed establishments.

In the U.S., individual states regulate the operations of racetracks located within their respective jurisdictions with the intent to, among other things, protect the public from unfair and illegal gambling practices, generate tax revenue, license racetracks and operators and prevent organized crime from being involved in the industry. Although the specific form may vary, states that regulate horse racing generally do so through a horse racing commission or other gambling regulatory authority. In general, regulatory authorities perform background checks on all racetrack owners prior to granting the necessary operating licenses. Horse owners, trainers, jockeys, drivers, stewards, judges, and backstretch personnel are also subject to licensing by governmental authorities.

The total number of days on which each racetrack conducts live racing may fluctuate annually based on applications and approvals.

*Kentucky*

In Kentucky, horse racing racetracks and HRM facilities are subject to the licensing and regulation of the Kentucky Horse Racing Commission ("KHRC"). Licenses to conduct live thoroughbred and standardbred racing meets, to participate in simulcasting, to operate HRM facilities, and to accept advance deposit wagers from Kentucky residents are approved annually by the KHRC based upon applications submitted by the racetracks in Kentucky. Changes in Kentucky laws or regulations may limit or otherwise materially affect the types of HRMs that may be conducted and such changes, if enacted, could have an adverse impact on our Kentucky HRM operations.

*Louisiana*

In Louisiana, the 2021 Historical Horse Racing Act ("2021 HHR Act") allows OTBs to have up to 50 HRMs. On October 25, 2022, a number of individual plaintiffs associated with video poker and truckstops, filed a lawsuit in the 19th Judicial District Court in East Baton Rouge, Louisiana against certain racetracks in Louisiana, including Fair Grounds, alleging that the 2021 HHR Act is unconstitutional to the extent it purports to permit historical racing in a parish without a referendum. As of December 31, 2022, the Company had approximately 340 HRMs in OTBs in Louisiana. If the 2021 HHR Act is determined to be unconstitutional it could have an adverse impact on our Louisiana HRM results which are reported in our Gaming segment.

***TwinSpires Regulations and Potential Legislative Changes***

TwinSpires is licensed in Oregon under a multi-jurisdictional simulcasting and interactive wagering totalisator hub license issued by the Oregon Racing Commission in accordance with Oregon law and the IHA. We also hold advance deposit wagering licenses in certain other states where appropriate. Changes in the form of new legislation or regulatory activity at the state or federal level could adversely impact our mobile and online ADW business.

***Sports Betting and iGaming Regulations and Potential Legislative Changes***

In May 2018, the United States Supreme Court struck down the 1992 Professional and Amateur Sports Protection Act, which had effectively banned sports wagering in most states. Removal of the ban gave states the authority to authorize sports wagering. Thirty-three states have authorized sports betting and thirty of these states have sports betting operational as of December 31, 2022. Each state has different structures for the number of allowable industry participants, license fees, taxes, and other operational requirements.

As of December 31, 2022, the Company is operational in nine states for retail sports betting, two states for online sports betting, and one state for iGaming.

***Gaming Regulations and Potential Legislative Changes***

The gaming industry is a highly regulated industry. In the U.S., gaming laws are generally designed to protect consumers and the viability and integrity of the industry. Gaming laws may also be designed to protect and maximize state and local revenue derived through taxes and licensing fees imposed on industry participants as well as to enhance economic development and tourism. To accomplish these public policy goals, gaming laws establish procedures to ensure that participants in the industry meet certain standards of character and fitness. Gaming laws require industry participants to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Ensure that unsuitable individuals and organizations have no role in gaming operations,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Establish procedures designed to prevent cheating and fraudulent practices,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Establish and maintain responsible accounting practices and procedures,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Maintain effective controls over financial practices, including establishment of minimum procedures for internal fiscal affairs and the safeguarding of assets and revenue,

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Maintain systems for reliable record keeping,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• File periodic reports with gaming regulators,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Ensure that contracts and financial transactions are commercially reasonable, reflect fair market value and are arms-length transactions,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Establish programs to promote responsible gambling and inform patrons of the availability of help for problem gambling, and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Enforce minimum age requirements.

A state regulatory environment is established by statute and administered by a regulatory agency with broad discretion to regulate the affairs of owners, managers and persons with financial interests in gaming operations. Gaming authorities in the various jurisdictions in which we operate:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Adopt rules and regulations under the implementing statutes,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Interpret and enforce gaming laws,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Impose disciplinary sanctions for violations, including fines and penalties,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Review the character and fitness of participants in gaming operations and make determinations regarding suitability or qualification for licensure,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Grant licenses for participation in gaming operations,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Collect and review reports and information submitted by participants in gaming operations,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Review and approve transactions, such as acquisitions or change-of-control transactions of gaming industry participants, securities offerings and debt transactions engaged in by such participants, and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Establish and collect fees and taxes.

Any change in the gaming laws or regulations of a jurisdiction could have a material adverse impact on our gaming operations.

***Licensing and Suitability Determinations***

Gaming laws require us, each of our subsidiaries engaged in gaming operations, certain of our directors, officers and employees, and in some cases, certain of our shareholders, to obtain licenses from gaming authorities. Licenses typically require a determination that the applicant qualifies or is suitable to hold the license. Gaming authorities have very broad discretion in determining whether an applicant qualifies for licensing or should be deemed suitable. Criteria used in determining whether to grant a license to conduct gaming operations, while varying between jurisdictions, generally include consideration of factors such as the good character, honesty and integrity of the applicant; the financial stability, integrity and responsibility of the applicant, including whether the operation is adequately capitalized in the state and exhibits the ability to maintain adequate insurance levels; the quality of the applicant's gaming facilities; the amount of revenue to be derived by the applicable state from the operation of the applicant's gaming facility; the applicant's practices with respect to minority hiring and training; and the effect on competition and general impact on the community.

In evaluating individual applicants, gaming authorities consider the individual's business experience and reputation for good character, the individual's criminal history and the character of those with whom the individual associates.

Many gaming jurisdictions limit the number of licenses granted to operate gaming facilities within the state and some states limit the number of licenses granted to any one gaming operator. Licenses under gaming laws are generally not transferable without approval. Licenses in most of the jurisdictions in which we conduct gaming operations are granted for limited durations and require renewal from time to time. There can be no assurance that any of our licenses will be renewed. The failure to renew any of our licenses could have a material adverse impact on our gaming operations.

Gaming authorities may investigate any subsidiary engaged in gaming operations and may investigate any individual who has a material relationship to or material involvement with any of these entities to determine whether such individual is suitable or should be licensed as a business associate of a gaming licensee. Our officers, directors and certain key employees must file applications with the gaming authorities and may be required to be licensed, qualify or be found suitable in many jurisdictions. Gaming authorities may deny an application for licensing for any cause that they deem reasonable. Qualification and suitability determinations require submission of detailed personal and financial information followed by a thorough investigation. Changes in licensed positions must be reported to gaming authorities. Gaming authorities have the ability to deny a license, qualification or finding of suitability and have jurisdiction to disapprove a change in a corporate position.

------

If one or more gaming authorities were to find that an officer, director or key employee fails to qualify or is unsuitable for licensing or unsuitable to continue having a relationship with us, we would be required to sever all relationships with such person. Gaming authorities may also require us to terminate the employment of any person who refuses to file appropriate applications.

In many jurisdictions, certain of our shareholders may be required to undergo a suitability investigation similar to that described above. Many jurisdictions require any person who acquires beneficial ownership of more than a certain percentage of our voting securities, typically 5%, to report the acquisition to gaming authorities, and may be required to apply for qualification or a finding of suitability. Most gaming authorities, however, allow an "institutional investor" to apply for a waiver.

Any person who fails or refuses to apply for a finding of suitability or a license within the prescribed period after being advised it is required by gaming authorities may be denied a license or found unsuitable, as applicable. Any shareholder found unsuitable or denied a license and who holds, directly or indirectly, any beneficial ownership of our voting securities beyond such period of time as may be prescribed by the applicable gaming authorities may be guilty of a criminal offense. We may be subject to disciplinary action if, after we receive notice that a person is unsuitable to be a shareholder or to have any other relationship with us or any of our subsidiaries, we:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;pay that person any dividend or interest upon our voting securities,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;allow that person to exercise, directly or indirectly, any voting right conferred through securities held by that person,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;pay remuneration in any form to that person for services rendered or otherwise, or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;fail to pursue all lawful efforts to require such unsuitable person to relinquish voting securities including, if necessary, the immediate purchase of said voting securities for cash at fair market value.

***Violations of Gaming Laws***

If we violate applicable gaming laws, our gaming licenses could be limited, conditioned, suspended or revoked by gaming authorities, and we and any other persons involved could be subject to substantial fines. A supervisor or conservator can be appointed by gaming authorities to operate our gaming properties, or in some jurisdictions, take title to our gaming assets in the jurisdiction, and under certain circumstances, income generated during such appointment could be forfeited to the applicable state or states. Violations of laws in one jurisdiction could result in disciplinary action in other jurisdictions. As a result, violations by us of applicable gaming laws could have a material adverse impact on our gaming operations.

Some jurisdictions prohibit certain types of political activity by a gaming licensee, officers, directors and key employees. A violation of such a prohibition may subject the offender to criminal and/or disciplinary action.

***Reporting and Record-keeping Requirements***

We are required periodically to submit detailed financial and operating reports and furnish any other information that gaming authorities may require. Under federal law, we are required to record and submit detailed reports of currency transactions involving greater than $10,000 at our gaming facilities and racetracks as well as any suspicious activity that may occur at such facilities. Failure to comply with these requirements could result in fines or cessation of operations. We are required to maintain a current stock ledger that may be examined by gaming authorities at any time. If any securities are held in trust by an agent or by a nominee, the record holder may be required to disclose the identity of the beneficial owner to gaming authorities. A failure to make such disclosure may be grounds for finding the record holder unsuitable. Gaming authorities may require certificates for our securities to bear a legend indicating that the securities are subject to specified gaming laws.

***Review and Approval of Transactions***

Substantially all material loans, leases, sales of securities and similar financing transactions must be reported to and in some cases approved by gaming authorities. We may not make a public offering of securities without the prior approval of certain gaming authorities. Changes in control through merger, consolidation, stock or asset acquisitions, management or consulting agreements, or otherwise are subject to receipt of prior approval of gaming authorities. Entities seeking to acquire control of us or one of our subsidiaries must satisfy gaming authorities with respect to a variety of stringent standards prior to assuming control. Gaming authorities may also require controlling shareholders, officers, directors and other persons having a material relationship or involvement with the entity proposing to acquire control, to be investigated and licensed as part of the approval process relating to the transaction.

***License Fees and Gaming Taxes***

We pay substantial license fees and taxes in many jurisdictions in connection with our gaming operations which are computed in various ways depending on the type of gambling or activity involved. Depending upon the particular fee or tax involved, these fees and taxes are payable with varying frequency. License fees and taxes are based upon such factors as a percentage of

------

the gaming revenue received; the number of gambling devices and table games operated; or a one-time fee payable upon the initial receipt of license and fees in connection with the renewal of license. In some jurisdictions, casino tax rates are graduated such that the tax rates increase as gaming revenue increases. Tax rates are subject to change, sometimes with little notice, and such changes could have a material adverse impact on our gaming operations.

***Operational Requirements***

In most jurisdictions, we are subject to certain requirements and restrictions on how we must conduct our gaming operations. In certain states, we are required to give preference to local suppliers and include minority and women-owned businesses and organized labor in construction projects to the maximum extent practicable. We may be required to give employment preference to minorities, women and in-state residents in certain jurisdictions. Our ability to conduct certain types of games, introduce new games or move existing games within our facilities may be restricted or subject to regulatory review and approval. Some of our operations are subject to restrictions on the number of gaming positions we may have, and the maximum wagers allowed to be placed by our customers.

**Environmental Matters**

We are subject to various federal, state and local environmental laws and regulations that govern activities that may have adverse environmental effects, such as discharges to air and water, as well as the management and disposal of solid, animal and hazardous wastes and exposure to hazardous materials. These laws and regulations, which are complex and subject to change, include the United States Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA") and state laws and regulations that address the impacts of manure and wastewater generated by Concentrated Animal Feeding Operations ("CAFO") on water quality, including, but not limited to, storm and sanitary water discharges. CAFO and other water discharge regulations include permit requirements and water quality discharge standards. Enforcement of these regulations has been receiving increased governmental attention. Compliance with these and other environmental laws can, in some circumstances, require significant capital expenditures. We may incur future costs under existing and new laws and regulations pertaining to storm water and wastewater management at our racetracks. Violations can result in significant penalties and, in some instances, interruption or cessation of operations.

We also are subject to laws and regulations that create liability and cleanup responsibility for releases of hazardous substances into the environment. Under certain of these laws and regulations, a current or previous owner or operator of property may be liable for the costs of remediating hazardous substances or petroleum products on its property, without regard to whether the owner or operator knew of, or caused, the presence of the contaminants, and regardless of whether the practices that resulted in the contamination were legal at the time the contamination occurred. The presence of, or failure to remediate properly, such substances may materially adversely affect the ability to sell or rent such property or to borrow funds using such property as collateral. The owner of a property may be subject to claims by third parties based on damages and costs resulting from environmental contamination emanating from the property.

**Marks and Intellectual Property**

We hold numerous state and federal service mark registrations on specific names and designs in various categories including the entertainment business, apparel, paper goods, printed matter, housewares and glass. We license the use of these service marks and derive revenue from such license agreements.

**Available Information**

Our Annual Reports on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, Current Reports on Form 8-K, proxy statements and other Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") filings, and any amendments to those reports and any other filings that we file with or furnish to the SEC under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 are made available free of charge on our website (<u>www.churchilldownsincorporated.com</u>) as soon as reasonably practicable after we electronically file the materials with the SEC and are also available at the SEC's website at <u>www.sec.gov</u>.

**ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS**

Our operations and financial results are subject to various risks and uncertainties, including those described below, that could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, and the trading price of our common stock.

**Economic and External Risks**

***Our business could be adversely affected by the occurrence of extraordinary events, such as terrorist attacks, public health threats, civil unrest, and inclement weather, including as a result of climate change***

Our operating results depend, in large part, on revenues derived from customers visiting our casinos and racetracks, which is subject to the occurrence and threat of extraordinary events that may discourage attendance or expose us to substantial liability. Terrorist activity, including acts of domestic terrorism, civil unrest or other actions that discourage attendance at other locations, or even the threat of such activity, including public concerns regarding air travel, military actions, safety and additional national or local catastrophic incidents, could result in reduced attendance at Churchill Downs Racetrack and at our other locations. A major epidemic or pandemic, outbreak of a contagious equine disease, or the threat of such an event, could also adversely affect attendance and could impact the supply chain for our major construction projects resulting in higher costs and delays of the projects. The COVID-19 global pandemic resulted in the temporary suspension of operations of all of our wholly-owned gaming properties, certain wholly-owned racing operations, and the two casino properties related to our equity investments. While we are constantly evaluating our security precautions in an effort to ensure the safety of the public, no security measures can guarantee safety and there can be no assurances of avoiding potential liabilities.

Since horse racing is conducted outdoors, unfavorable weather conditions, including extremely high and low temperatures, heavy rains, high winds, storms, tornadoes and hurricanes, could cause events to be canceled and/or attendance to be lower, resulting in reduced wagering. Climate change could have an impact on longer-term natural weather trends. Extreme weather events that are linked to rising temperatures, changing global weather patterns, sea, land and air temperatures, as well as sea levels, rain and snow could result in increased occurrence and severity of adverse weather events. Our operations are subject to reduced patronage, disruptions or complete cessation of operations due to weather conditions, natural disasters and other casualties. The occurrence or threat of any such extraordinary event at our locations, particularly at Churchill Downs Racetrack and Kentucky Derby and Oaks week, could have a material negative effect on our business and results of operations.

***Our business is sensitive to economic conditions which may affect consumer confidence, consumers' discretionary spending, or our access to credit in a manner that adversely impacts our operations***

Economic trends can impact consumer confidence and consumers' discretionary spending, including:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Negative economic conditions and the persistence of elevated levels of unemployment can impact consumers' disposable incomes and, therefore, impact the demand for entertainment and leisure activities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Inflationary periods negatively impact consumers' discretionary income and could reduce the amount of income previously used for gaming and entertainment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Declines in the residential real estate market, increases in individual tax rates and other factors that we cannot accurately predict may reduce the disposable income of our customers.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Decreases in consumer discretionary spending could affect us even if such decreases occur in other markets. For example, reduced wagering levels and profitability at racetracks from which we carry racing content could cause certain racetracks to cancel races or cease operations and therefore reduce the content we could provide to our customers.

Lower consumer confidence or reductions in consumers' discretionary spending could result in fewer patrons spending money at our racetracks, our online wagering sites and gaming and wagering facilities, and reduced consumer spending overall.

Our access to and the cost of credit may be impacted to the extent global and U.S. credit markets are affected by downward economic trends. Economic trends can also impact the financial viability of other industry constituents, making collection of amounts owed to us uncertain. Our ability to respond to periods of economic contraction may be limited, as certain of our costs remain fixed or even increase when revenue declines.

***We are vulnerable to additional or increased taxes and fees***

We believe that the prospect of raising significant additional revenue through taxes and fees is one of the primary reasons that certain jurisdictions permit legalized gaming. As a result, gaming companies are typically subject to significant taxes and fees in addition to the normal federal, state, provincial and local income taxes and such taxes and fees may be increased at any time. From time to time, legislators and officials have proposed changes in tax laws or in the administration of laws affecting the horse racing, online wagering and casino industries. Many states and municipalities, including ones in which we operate, are currently experiencing budgetary pressures that may make it more likely they would seek to impose additional taxes and fees on our operations. We are subject to tax in multiple U.S. tax jurisdictions and judgment is required in determining our provision

------

for income taxes, deferred tax assets or liabilities and in evaluating our tax positions. It is not possible to determine the likelihood, extent or impact of any future changes in tax laws or fees, or changes in the administration of such laws; however, if enacted, such changes could have a material adverse impact on our business.

***The current novel coronavirus (COVID-19) global pandemic has adversely affected, and could continue to adversely affect our business, financial condition and financial results. Other major public health issues could adversely affect our business, financial condition and financial results in the future***

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the COVID-19 outbreak a global pandemic. Considerable uncertainty still surrounds the continued effects of the COVID-19 virus, including the emergence of variant strains, and the extent of and effectiveness of responses taken on international, national and local levels. The long-term impact of COVID-19 on the U.S. and world economies and continued impact on our business remains uncertain, the duration and scope of which cannot currently be predicted.

The COVID-19 pandemic and the measures taken by national, state, and local authorities in response have adversely affected and could in the future materially adversely impact the Company's business, results of operations, and financial condition. Our operating results depend, in large part, on revenues derived from customers visiting our casinos and racetracks. During the course of the pandemic, we experienced temporary suspension of operations of all of our wholly-owned gaming properties, certain wholly-owned racing operations, and the two casino properties related to our equity investments. The introduction of vaccine and facemask mandates in certain locations also impacted the number of customers visiting our properties.

The Company continues to monitor the COVID-19 situation and take appropriate actions in accordance with the recommendations and requirements of relevant authorities. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic may impact the Company's long-term operational and financial performance remains uncertain and will depend on many factors outside the Company's control, including the timing, extent, trajectory, and duration of the pandemic, the emergence of new variants, the development, availability, distribution, and effectiveness of vaccines and treatments, the imposition of protective public safety measures, and the impact of the pandemic on the global economy.

**Strategic Risks**

***A lack of confidence in the integrity of our core businesses or any deterioration in our reputation could affect our ability to retain our customers and engage with new customers***

Horse racing, pari-mutuel wagering, and casino gaming businesses depend on the public perception of integrity and fairness in their operations. To prevent cheating or erroneous payouts, necessary oversight processes must be in place to ensure that such activities cannot be manipulated. A lack or loss of confidence in the fairness of our industries could have a material adverse impact on our business.

Acts of fraud or cheating in our gaming businesses through the use of counterfeit chips, covert schemes and other tactics, possibly in collusion with our employees, may be attempted or committed by our gaming customers with the aim of increasing their winnings. Our gaming customers, visitors and employees may also commit crimes such as theft in order to obtain chips not belonging to them. We have taken measures to safeguard our interests including the implementation of systems, processes and technologies to mitigate against these risks, extensive employee training, surveillance, security and investigation operations and adoption of appropriate security features on our chips such as embedded radio frequency identification tags. Despite our efforts, we may not be successful in preventing or detecting such culpable behavior and schemes in a timely manner and the relevant insurance we have obtained may not be sufficient to cover our losses depending on the incident, which could result in losses to our gaming operations and generate negative publicity, both of which could have an adverse effect on our reputation, business, results of operations and cash flows.

Other factors that could influence our reputation include the quality of the services we offer and our actions with regard to social issues such as diversity, human rights and support for local communities. Broad access to social media makes it easy for anyone to provide public feedback that can influence perceptions of us or our properties. It may be difficult to control or effectively manage negative publicity, regardless of whether it is accurate. Negative events and publicity could quickly and materially damage perceptions of us, our properties, or our industries, which, in turn, could adversely impact our business, financial condition or results of operations through loss of customers, loss of business opportunities, lack of acceptance of our company to operate in host communities, employee retention or recruiting difficulties or other difficulties.

------

***An inability to attract and retain key and highly qualified and skilled personnel, as well as disruptions in the general labor market, could impact our ability to successfully develop, operate, and grow our business***

We believe that our success depends in part on our ability to hire, develop, motivate, and retain highly qualified and skilled employees throughout our organization. If we do not successfully hire, develop, motivate, and retain highly qualified and skilled employees, it is likely that we could experience significant disruptions in our operations and our ability to successfully develop, operate, and grow our business could be impacted.

Competition for the type of talent we seek to hire is increasingly intense in the geographic areas in which we operate. As a result, we may incur significant costs to attract and retain highly skilled employees. We may be unable to attract and retain the personnel necessary to sustain our business or support future growth.

Certain of our key employees are required to file applications with the gaming authorities in each of the jurisdictions in which we operate and are required to be licensed or found suitable by these gaming authorities. If the gaming authorities were to find a key employee unsuitable for licensing, we may be required to sever the employee relationship, or the gaming authorities may require us to terminate the employment of any person who refuses to file appropriate applications. Either result could significantly impact our operations.

We have observed an increasingly competitive labor market. Increased employee turnover, changes in the availability of our workers, or labor shortages in our supply chain could result in increased costs and impact our ability to fully staff our operations, which could negatively affect our financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.

***Our Company faces significant competition, and we expect competition levels to increase***

We face an increasingly high degree of competition among a large number of participants operating from physical locations and/or through online or mobile platforms, including destination casinos, riverboat casinos; dockside casinos; land-based casinos; video lottery; iGaming; sports betting; gaming at taverns in certain states, such as Illinois; gaming at truck stop establishments in certain states, such as Louisiana and Pennsylvania; historical horse racing in Kentucky; sweepstakes and poker machines not located in casinos; fantasy sports; Native American gaming; and other forms of gaming in the U.S. Furthermore, competition from internet lotteries, sweepstakes, illegal slot machines and skill games, fantasy sports and internet or mobile-based gaming platforms, which allow their customers to wager on a wide variety of sporting events and/or play Las Vegas-style casino games from home or in non-casino settings could divert customers from our properties and thus adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. Currently, there are proposals that would legalize internet poker, sports betting and other varieties of iGaming in a number of states. Expansion of land-based and iGaming in other jurisdictions (both regulated and unregulated) could further compete with our traditional and iGaming operations, which could have an adverse impact on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Legalized gaming is currently permitted in various forms throughout the U.S. and on various lands taken into trust for the benefit of certain Native Americans in the U.S. and Canada. Other jurisdictions, including states adjacent to states in which we currently have properties, have recently legalized, implemented and expanded gaming. Established gaming jurisdictions could award additional gaming licenses or permit the expansion or relocation of existing gaming operations. Voters and state legislatures may seek to supplement traditional tax revenue sources of state governments by authorizing or expanding gaming in the states that we operate in or the states that are adjacent to or near our existing properties. New, relocated or expanded operations by other persons could increase competition for our operations and could have a material adverse impact on us.

Our operations also face competition from other leisure and entertainment activities, including shopping, athletic events, television and movies, concerts and travel.

***Our Churchill Downs Racetrack and the Kentucky Derby may be adversely affected by changes in consumer preferences, attendance, wagering, and sponsorships***

Our Churchill Downs Racetrack is dependent upon the number of people attending and wagering on live horse races. If interest in horse racing is lower in the future, it may have a negative impact on revenue and profitability in our Live and Historical Racing segment. In addition, accidents and adverse events that may occur at our racetrack and any reputational damage as a result may negatively impact attendance at our live horse races. If attendance at and wagering on live horse racing declines, it could have a material adverse impact on our business.

The number and level of sponsorships are important to the success of the Kentucky Derby. Our ability to retain sponsors, acquire new sponsors, and compete for sponsorships and advertising dollars could have a material adverse impact on our business.

------

***We are subject to significant risks associated with our equity investments, strategic alliances, and other third-party agreements***

We pursue certain license opportunities, development projects and other strategic business opportunities through equity investments, joint ventures, license arrangements and other alliances with third parties.

Our equity investments are governed by mutually established agreements that we entered into with our co-investors and therefore, we do not unilaterally control the applicable entity or other initiatives. The terms of the equity investments and the rights of our co-investors may preclude us from taking actions that we believe to be in the best interests of the Company. Disagreements with our co-investors could result in delays in project development, including construction delays, and ultimate failure of the project. Our co-investors also may not be able to provide capital to the applicable entity on the terms agreed to or at all, and the applicable entity may be unable to obtain external financing to finance their operations. Also, our ability to exit the equity investments may be subject to contractual and other limitations.

With any third-party arrangement, there is a risk that our partners' economic, business, or legal interests or objectives may not be aligned with ours, leading to potential disagreements and/or failure of the applicable project or initiative. We are also subject to risks relating to our co-investors' failure to satisfy contractual obligations, conflicts arising between us and any of our partners and changes in the ownership of any of our co-investors.

Any of these risks could have a material adverse impact on our business.

***We may not be able to respond to rapid technological changes in a timely manner, which may cause customer dissatisfaction***

Our TwinSpires and Gaming segments are characterized by the rapid development of new technologies and the continuous introduction of new products. Our main technological advantage versus potential competitors is our software lead-time in the market and our experience in operating an Internet-based wagering network. It may be difficult to maintain our competitive technological position against current and potential competitors, especially those with greater financial resources. Our success depends upon new product development and technological advancements, including the development of new wagering platforms and features. While we expend resources on research and development and product enhancement, we may not be able to continue to improve and market our existing products or technologies or develop and market new products in a timely manner. Further technological developments may cause our products or technologies to become obsolete or noncompetitive.

***The concentration and evolution of the slot machine and HRM manufacturing industry or other technological conditions could impose additional costs on us***

A significant amount of our revenue is attributable to slot, HRM, VLTs, and video poker machines operated by us at our properties, and there are a limited number of slot machine and HRM manufacturers servicing the industry. It is important for competitive reasons that we offer the most popular and up-to-date machine games with the latest technology to our guests. A substantial majority of the slot machines sold in the U.S. in recent years were manufactured by a few select companies, and there has been extensive consolidation activity within the gaming equipment sector. Recently, the prices of new machines have escalated faster than the rate of inflation and slot machine manufacturers have occasionally refused to sell slot machines featuring the most popular games, instead requiring participating lease arrangements in order to acquire the machines. Participation slot machine leasing arrangements typically require the payment of a fixed daily rental. Such agreements may also include a percentage payment of coin-in or net win. Generally, a participating lease is substantially more expensive over the long term than the cost to purchase a new machine. For competitive reasons, we may be forced to purchase new slot machines or enter into participating lease arrangements that are more expensive than the costs associated with the continued operation of our existing slot machines. If the newer slot machines do not result in sufficient incremental revenue to offset the increased investment, it could adversely affect our operations and profitability.

We rely on a variety of hardware and software products to maximize revenue and efficiency in our operations. Technology in the gaming industry is developing rapidly, and we may need to invest substantial amounts to acquire the most current gaming and hotel technology and equipment in order to remain competitive in the markets in which we operate. We rely on a limited number of vendors to provide video poker and slot machines and any loss of our equipment suppliers could impact our operations. Ensuring the successful implementation and maintenance of any new technology acquired is an additional risk.

***Our operations in certain jurisdictions depend on agreements with industry constituents including horsemen and other racetracks, and the failure to enter into or maintain these agreements on terms acceptable to us could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition***

Our operations in certain jurisdictions depend on agreements with third parties. If we are unable to renew these agreements on satisfactory terms as they expire, our business may be disrupted. For example, the Interstate Horseracing Act, as well as various state racing laws, require that we have written agreements with the horsemen at our racetracks in order to simulcast races, and, in some cases, conduct live racing. Certain industry groups negotiate these agreements on behalf of the horsemen (the "Horsemen's Groups"). These agreements provide that we must receive the consent of the Horsemen's Groups at the

------

racetrack conducting live races before we may allow third parties to accept wagers on those races. We currently negotiate formal agreements with the applicable Horsemen's Groups at our racetracks on an annual basis. The failure to maintain agreements with, or obtain consents from, the Horsemen's Groups on satisfactory terms or the refusal by a Horsemen's Group to consent to third parties accepting wagers on our races or our accepting wagers on third-party races could have a material adverse impact on our business, as such failure will result in our inability to conduct live racing and export and import simulcasting.

From time to time, certain Horsemen's Groups have withheld their consent to send or receive racing signals among racetracks. Failure to receive the consent of these Horsemen's Groups for new and renewing simulcast agreements could have a material adverse impact on our business. We also have written agreements with certain Horsemen's Groups with regards to the proceeds of gaming machines in certain states that may be required to operate such gaming.

We have agreements with other racetracks for the distribution of racing content through both the import of other racetracks' signals for wagering at our properties and the export of our racing signal for wagering at other racetracks' facilities, OTBs, and ADWs. From time to time, we may be unable to reach agreements on terms acceptable to us. As a result, we may be unable to distribute our racing content to other locations or to receive other racetracks' racing content for wagering at our racetracks. The inability to distribute our racing content could have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

***We intend to focus on market access and our retail operations for our TwinSpires Sports and Casino business and there can be no assurance that we will be able to compete effectively or that we will generate sufficient returns on our investment***

During the second quarter of 2018, the U.S. Supreme Court overturned the federal ban on sports betting. Thirty-three states have authorized sports betting and thirty of these states have sports betting operational as of December 31, 2022. Additional states may legalize sports betting in the future. Each state has different structures for the number of allowable industry participants, license fees, taxes, and other operational requirements. The market for sports betting and online gaming is rapidly evolving and highly competitive with an increasing number of competitors. The success of our retail and online sportsbook and online casino operations are dependent on a number of factors that are beyond our control, including:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the timing of adoption of regulations authorizing betting and gaming activities,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• operating requirements and other restrictions,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the number of allowable industry participants,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the license fees and tax rates,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• our ability to gain market share in a newly developing market,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the potential that the market does not develop as we anticipate,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• our ability to compete with new entrants in the market,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• changes in consumer demographics and public tastes and preferences, and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the availability and popularity of other forms of entertainment.

There can be no assurance as to the returns that we will receive from TwinSpires Sports and Casino business.

**Operational Risks**

***Our business is subject to online security risk, including cyber-security breaches. Loss or misuse of our stored information as a result of such a breach, including customers' personal information, could lead to government enforcement actions or other litigation, potential liability, or otherwise harm our business***

We receive, process, store and use personal information and other customer and employee data by maintaining and transmitting customers' personal and financial information, credit card settlements, credit card funds transmissions, mailing lists and reservations information. Our collection of such data is subject to extensive regulation by private groups, such as the payment card industry, as well as governmental authorities, including gaming authorities.

There are numerous federal, state and local laws regarding privacy and the storing, sharing, use, processing, disclosure and protection of personal information and other data, and such privacy laws and regulations continue to evolve. Many states have passed laws requiring notification to customers when there is a security breach for personal data, such as the 2002 amendment to California's Information Practices Act or requiring the adoption of minimum information security standards that are often vaguely defined and difficult to implement. California has adopted the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (the "CCPA"), which went into effect on January 1, 2020, providing California consumers greater control of the information

------

collected, stored, and sold, and other states are considering similar legislation. The CCPA provides a private right of action (in addition to statutory damages) for California residents whose sensitive personal information was breached as a result of a business's violation of its duty to reasonably secure such information. The costs of compliance with these laws may increase as a result of changes in interpretation or changes in law. Any failure on our part to comply with these laws or our privacy policies may subject us to significant liabilities, including governmental enforcement actions or litigation.

Our systems and processes that are designed to protect customer information and prevent data loss and other security breaches, including systems and processes designed to reduce the impact of a security breach at a third-party vendor, may not be successful. Interruptions in our services or a breach of a customer's secure data could cause current or potential users to believe that our systems are unreliable, which could permanently harm our reputation and brand. These interruptions could also increase the burden on our engineering staff, which, in turn, could delay our introduction of new features and services on our websites and in our casinos. Such incidents could give rise to remediation costs, monetary fines, and other penalties, which could be significant. We attempt to protect against this risk with our property and business interruption insurance, which covers damage or interruption of our systems, although there is no assurance that such insurance will be adequate to cover all potential losses.

Third parties we work with, such as vendors, may violate applicable laws or our privacy policies, and such violations may also put our customers' information at risk and could in turn have an adverse impact on our business. We are also subject to payment card association rules and obligations under each association's contracts with payment card processors. Under these rules and obligations, if information is compromised, we could be liable to payment card issuers for the associated expense and penalties. If we fail to follow payment card industry security standards, even if no customer information is compromised, we could incur significant fines or experience a significant increase in payment card transaction costs.

Security breaches, computer malware and computer hacking attacks have become more prevalent in our industry, and hackers and data thieves are increasingly sophisticated and operate large-scale and complex automated attacks. Many companies, including ours, have been the targets of such attacks. Any security breach caused by hacking which involves efforts to gain unauthorized access to information or systems, or to cause intentional malfunctions or loss or corruption of data, software, hardware or other computer equipment, and the inadvertent transmission of computer viruses could harm our business. Though it is difficult to determine what harm may directly result from any specific interruption or breach, any failure to maintain performance, reliability, security and availability of our network infrastructure to the satisfaction of our players may harm our reputation and our ability to retain existing players and attract new players.

The costs to eliminate or address the foregoing security threats and vulnerabilities before or after a cyber-incident could be significant. Our remediation efforts may not be successful and could result in interruptions, delays or cessation of service, and loss of existing or potential suppliers or customers. As threats related to cyber-attacks develop and grow, we may also find it necessary to make further investments to protect our data and infrastructure, which may impact our results of operations. We have insurance coverage for protection against cyber-attacks, which is designed to cover expenses around notification, credit monitoring, investigation, crisis management, public relations, and legal advice. This insurance coverage may not be sufficient to cover all possible claims, and we could suffer losses that could have a material adverse effect on our business.

Because the techniques used to obtain unauthorized access, disable or degrade service, or sabotage systems, change frequently and often are not recognized until launched against a target, we may be unable to anticipate these techniques or to implement adequate preventative measures.

***Our operations rely heavily on technology services, and catastrophic events and system failures with respect to these technology services could cause a significant and continued disruption to our operations***

We rely on information technology and other systems to manage our business. A disruption or failure in our technology systems or operations in the event of a cyber-attack, major earthquake, weather event, terrorist attack or other catastrophic event could interrupt our operations, damage our properties, and reduce the number of customers who visit our facilities in the affected areas. Security breaches could expose the Company to a risk of loss or misuse of our or our customers' information, litigation, and potential liability. In addition, cyber incidents that impact the availability, reliability, speed, accuracy, or other proper functioning of our technology systems could impact our operations. A significant cyber incident, including system failure, security breach, disruption by malware or other damage could interrupt or delay our operations, result in a violation of applicable privacy and other laws, damage our reputation, subject us to litigation, cause a loss of customers or give rise to remediation costs, monetary fines and other penalties, which could be significant.

Our online wagering, HRM and brick-and-mortar casino businesses depend upon our communications hardware and our computer hardware. We have built certain redundancies into our systems to attempt to avoid downtime in the event of outages, system failures or damage. Our systems also remain vulnerable to damage or interruption from floods, fires, power loss, telecommunication failures, terrorist cyber-attacks, hardware or software error, computer viruses, computer denial-of-service attacks and similar events. Despite any precautions we may take, the occurrence of a natural disaster or other unanticipated

------

problems could result in lengthy interruptions in our services. Any unscheduled interruption in the availability of our websites and our services could result in an immediate, and possibly substantial, loss of revenue.

***We may not be able to identify and / or complete acquisitions, divestitures, development of new venues or the expansion of existing facilities on time, on budget or as planned***

We pursue acquisitions, divestitures, development of new venues and expansion of existing facilities to grow our business.

We face challenges in identifying and completing acquisitions or divestiture opportunities or other development or expansion projects that fit with our strategic objectives. These projects require significant capital commitments and the incurrence of additional debt. These projects also have risks associated with managing and integrating the acquisition or expansion project.

Supply chain disruptions and inflationary pressure related to these projects could lead to delays and higher project costs. The acquisition or divestiture of businesses may be delayed by external factors beyond our control including federal, state, and local issues.

The impact of these risks may cause us not to realize the intended benefits of these capital investments which could have a material adverse impact on our business.

***We may experience difficulty in integrating recent or future acquisitions into our operations***

We have completed acquisition transactions in the past, and we may pursue acquisitions from time to time in the future. The successful integration of newly acquired businesses into our operations has required and will continue to require the expenditure of substantial managerial, operating, financial and other resources and may also lead to a diversion of our attention from our ongoing business concerns. We may not be able to successfully integrate new businesses, manage the combined operations or realize projected revenue gains, cost savings and synergies in connection with those acquisitions on the timetable contemplated, if at all. Management of the new business operations, especially those in new lines of business or different geographic areas, may require that we increase our managerial resources. The process of integrating new operations may also interrupt the activities of those businesses, which could have a material adverse impact on our business. The costs of integrating businesses we acquire could significantly impact our short-term operating results. These costs could include the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• restructuring charges associated with the acquisitions,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• non-recurring transaction costs, including accounting and legal fees, investment banking fees and recognition of transaction-related costs or liabilities, and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• costs of imposing financial and management controls and operating, administrative and information systems.

We perform financial, operational, and legal diligence on the businesses we purchase; however, an unavoidable level of risk remains regarding the actual condition of these businesses and our ability to continue to operate these businesses successfully and integrate them into our existing operations. In any acquisition we make, we face risks that include the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the risk that the acquired business may not further our business strategy or that we paid more than the business was worth,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the risk that the financial performance of the acquired business declines or fails to meet our expectations from and after the date of acquisition,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the potential adverse impact on our relationships with partner companies or third-party providers of technology or products,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the possibility that we have acquired substantial undisclosed liabilities for which we may have no recourse against the sellers or third-party insurers,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• costs and complications in maintaining required regulatory approvals or obtaining further regulatory approvals necessary to implement the acquisition in accordance with our strategy,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the risks of acquiring businesses and/or entering markets in which we have limited or no prior experience,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the potential loss of key employees or customers,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the possibility that we may be unable to retain or recruit employees with the necessary skills to manage the acquired businesses, and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• changes to legal and regulatory guidelines which may negatively affect acquisitions.

If we are unsuccessful in overcoming these risks, it could have a material adverse impact on our business.

------

***The development of new venues and the expansion of existing facilities is costly and susceptible to delays, cost overruns and other uncertainties***

We may decide to develop, construct and open hotels, casinos, other gaming venues, or racetracks in response to opportunities that may arise. For example, we've announced multiple major multi-year capital investments to transform key areas of Churchill Downs Racetrack, as well as other capital investments such as the build out of Derby City Gaming Downtown, Rosie's Emporia and Dumfries, the Ellis Park Owensboro Annex, a charitable gaming facility in New Hampshire and the Terre Haute Casino Resort. Future development projects may require significant capital commitments and the incurrence of additional debt, which could have a material adverse impact on our business. In addition, we may not receive the intended benefits of such capital investments.

***Ownership and development of our real estate requires significant expenditures and ownership of such properties is subject to risk, including risks related to environmental liabilities***

We own extensive real estate holdings and make significant capital investments to grow our operations. All real estate investments are subject to risks including the following: general economic conditions, such as the availability and cost of financing; local and national real estate conditions, such as an oversupply of residential, office, retail or warehousing space, or a reduction in demand for real estate in the area; governmental regulation, including taxation of property and environmental legislation; and the attractiveness of properties to potential purchasers or tenants. Significant expenditures, including property taxes, debt repayments, maintenance costs, insurance costs and related charges, must be made throughout the period of ownership of real property. Such expenditures may negatively impact our operating results.

We are subject to a variety of federal, state and local governmental laws and regulations relating to the use, storage, discharge, emission and disposal of hazardous materials. Environmental laws and regulations could hold us responsible for the cost of cleaning up hazardous materials contaminating real property that we own or operate (or previously owned or operated) or properties at which we have disposed of hazardous materials, even if we did not cause the contamination. Some of our facilities are subject to CAFO regulations. If we fail to comply with environmental laws or if contamination is discovered, a court or government agency could impose severe penalties or restrictions on our operations or assess us with the costs of taking remedial actions. Enforcement of such regulations have been receiving increased governmental attention and compliance with these and other environmental laws can, in some circumstances, require significant capital expenditures (including with respect to fines).

***Horse racing is an inherently dangerous sport, and our racetracks are subject to personal injury litigation***

Personal injuries and injuries to horses have occurred during races or workouts, and may continue to occur, which could subject us to negative publicity and / or litigation. Negative publicity may lead some customers to avoid the Company's properties or could cause horse owners to avoid racing their horses at our racetracks. Any litigation resulting from injuries at our properties could be costly and time consuming and could divert our management and key personnel from our business operations. We buy insurance for all of our racetracks; however, our coverage may not be sufficient for all losses. Due to the potential impact of negative publicity and inherent uncertainty related to the outcome of litigation, there can be no assurance that the resolution of any particular claim or proceeding would not have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial position or liquidity.

***Any violation of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, other similar laws and regulations, or applicable anti-money laundering regulations could have a negative impact on us***

We are subject to risks associated with doing business outside of the U.S., including exposure to complex foreign and U.S. regulations such as the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (the "FCPA") and other anti-corruption laws which generally prohibit U.S. companies and their intermediaries from making improper payments to foreign officials for the purpose of obtaining or retaining business. Violations of the FCPA and other anti-corruption laws may result in severe criminal and civil sanctions and other penalties. It may be difficult to oversee the conduct of any contractors, third-party partners, representatives, or agents who are not our employees, potentially exposing us to greater risk from their actions. If our employees or agents fail to comply with applicable laws or company policies governing our international operations, we may face legal proceedings and actions which could result in civil penalties, administration actions and criminal sanctions.

Any determination that we have violated any anti-corruption laws could have a material adverse impact on our business. We also deal with significant amounts of cash in our operations and are subject to various reporting and anti-money laundering regulations. Any violation of anti-money laundering laws or regulations by any of our properties could have a material adverse impact on our business.

***We are subject to payment-related risks, such as risk associated with the fraudulent use of credit or debit cards which could have adverse effects on our business due to chargebacks from customers***

------

We allow funding and payments to accounts using a variety of methods, including electronic funds transfer ("EFT") and credit and debit cards. As we continue to introduce new funding or payment options to our players, we may be subject to additional regulatory and compliance requirements. We also may be subject to the risk of fraudulent use of credit or debit cards, or other funding and/or payment options. For certain funding or payment options, including credit and debit cards, we may pay interchange and other fees which may increase over time and, therefore, raise operating costs and reduce profitability. We rely on third parties to provide payment-processing services and it could disrupt our business if these companies become unwilling or unable to provide these services to us. We are also subject to rules and requirements governing EFT which could change or be reinterpreted to make it difficult or impossible for us to comply. If we fail to comply with these rules or requirements, we may be subject to fines and higher transaction fees or possibly lose our ability to accept credit or debit cards, or other forms of payment from customers which could have a material adverse impact on our business.

Chargebacks occur when customers seek to void credit card or other payment transactions. Cardholders are intended to be able to reverse card transactions only if there has been unauthorized use of the card or the services contracted for have not been provided. In our business, customers occasionally seek to reverse online gaming losses through chargebacks. Our control procedures to protect from chargebacks may not be sufficient to protect us from adverse effects on our business or results of operations.

***Work stoppages and other labor problems could negatively impact our future plans and limit our operational flexibility***

Some of our employees are represented by labor unions. A strike or other work stoppage at one of our properties could have an adverse impact on our business and results of operations. From time to time, we have also experienced attempts to unionize certain of our non-union employees. We may experience additional union activity in the future. Any such union organization efforts could cause disruptions in our business and result in significant costs.

**Legal and Regulatory Risks**

***We face risks related to pending or future legal proceedings and other actions***

From time to time, we are a party in various lawsuits and judicial and governmental actions. No assurance can be provided as to the outcome of these lawsuits and actions which can be expensive and time consuming. We may not be successful in the defense or prosecution of these lawsuits or actions, which could result in settlements, costs or damages that could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition, results of operations, and reputation. Such matters may include investigations or litigation from various parties, including vendors, customers, state and federal agencies, stockholders and employees relating to intellectual property, employment, consumer, personal injury, corporate governance, commercial or other matters arising in the ordinary course of business.

We have also been subject to claims in cases concerning or similar to class action allegations. Plaintiffs in such lawsuits often seek recovery of very large or indeterminate amounts, and the magnitude of the potential loss and defense costs relating to such lawsuits may not be accurately estimated. We evaluate all of the claims and proceedings involving us to assess the expected outcome, and where possible, we estimate the potential losses we may incur. In many cases, including class action matters, we may not be able to estimate the potential losses we will incur and/or our estimates may prove to be insufficient. These assessments are made by management based on the information available at the time made and require the use of a significant amount of judgment, and actual outcomes or losses may materially differ. Regardless of whether any claims against us are valid, or whether we are ultimately held liable, such litigation may be expensive to defend and may divert resources away from our operations and negatively impact earnings. We may not be able to obtain adequate insurance to protect us from these types of litigation matters or extraordinary business losses.

***Our operations are highly regulated and changes in the regulatory environment could adversely affect our business***

We conduct live and historical pari-mutuel wagering, online pari-mutuel wagering through ADWs, casino gaming, online gaming, and sports betting operations, which are subject to extensive state and for some local regulation. These regulatory authorities have broad discretion, and may, for any reason set forth in the applicable legislation, rules and regulations, limit, condition, suspend, fail to renew or revoke a license or registration to conduct our operations or prevent another person from owning an equity interest in the Company.

There can be no assurance that we will be able to retain our existing governmental licenses, registrations, permits or approvals necessary to operate our existing businesses or demonstrate suitability to obtain any licenses, registrations, permits, or approvals. The loss of a license in one jurisdiction could trigger the loss of a license or affect our eligibility for a license in another jurisdiction. As we expand our operations in our existing jurisdictions or to new areas, we may have to meet additional suitability requirements and obtain additional licenses, registrations, permits and approvals from authorities in these jurisdictions. The approval process can be time-consuming and costly, and we cannot be sure that we will be successful.

------

Our Live and Historical Racing segment is subject to extensive state and local regulation, and we depend on continued state approval of legalized pari-mutuel wagering in states where we operate. Our wagering and racing (including HRM) facilities must meet the licensing requirements of various regulatory authorities. We have obtained all governmental licenses, registrations, permits and approvals necessary for operation. However, we may be unable to maintain our existing licenses. The failure to obtain such licenses in the future or the loss of or material change in our business licenses, registrations, permits or approvals may materially limit the number of races we conduct or our racing (including HRM) operation. The loss of a license in one jurisdiction could trigger the loss of a license or affect our eligibility for a license in another jurisdiction.

Regulatory authorities also have input into important aspects of our operations, including hours of operation, location or relocation of a facility, and numbers and types of HRMs. Regulators may also levy substantial fines against or seize our assets or the assets of our subsidiaries or the people involved in violating pari-mutuel laws or regulations. For example, individual plaintiffs associated with video poker and truck stops in Louisiana are challenging the constitutionality of the Louisiana 2021 HHR Act which may adversely impact Fair Ground's historical racing operations.

TwinSpires accepts ADW wagers from customers of certain states who set up and fund accounts from which they may place wagers via telephone, mobile device or through the Internet pursuant to the Interstate Horseracing Act and relevant licenses and consents. The online horse racing wagering business is heavily regulated, and laws governing ADW pari-mutuel wagering vary from state to state. State attorney generals, regulators, and other law enforcement officials may interpret state laws, federal laws, constitutional principles, and the related regulations in a different manner than we do.

States may take affirmative action to make ADW expressly unlawful. We may not be successful in lobbying state legislatures or regulatory bodies to obtain or renew required legislation, licenses, registrations, permits and approvals necessary to facilitate the operation or expansion of our online horse racing wagering business or in any legal challenge to the validity of any restrictions on ADW. Legal challenges and regulatory and legislative processes can be lengthy, costly and uncertain.

Many states have considered and are considering interactive and Internet gaming legislation and regulations which may inhibit our ability to do business in such states or increase competition for online wagering. Anti-gaming conclusions and recommendations of other governmental or quasi-governmental bodies could form the basis for new laws, regulations, and enforcement policies. The extensive regulation by both state and federal authorities of gaming activities also can be significantly affected by changes in the political climate and changes in economic and regulatory policies.

Any of these events could have a material adverse impact on our financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.

**Financial Risks**

***Our debt facilities contain restrictions that limit our flexibility in operating our business***

Our debt facilities contain a number of covenants that impose significant operating and financial restrictions on our business, including restrictions on our ability to, among other things, take the following actions:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• incur additional debt or issue certain preferred shares,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• pay dividends on or make distributions in respect of our capital stock, repurchase common shares or make other restricted payments,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• make certain investments,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• sell certain assets or consolidate, merge, sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of our assets,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• create liens on certain assets,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• enter into certain transactions with our affiliates, and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• designate our subsidiaries as unrestricted subsidiaries.

As a result of these covenants, we are limited in the manner in which we conduct our business, and we may be unable to engage in favorable business activities or finance future operations or capital needs.

***Any failure to comply with the financial ratios and other covenants in our debt facilities and other indebtedness could have a material adverse impact on our business***

Under our debt facilities, we are required to satisfy and maintain specified financial ratios. Our ability to meet those financial ratios can be affected by events beyond our control, and as a result, we may be unable to meet those ratios. A failure to comply with the financial ratios and other covenants contained in our debt facilities or our other indebtedness could result in an event of default which, if not cured or waived, could have a material adverse impact on our business and financial condition. In the event of any default under our debt facilities or our other indebtedness, the lenders thereunder:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• will not be required to lend any additional amounts to us,

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• could elect to declare all borrowings outstanding, together with accrued and unpaid interest and fees, to be due and payable and could terminate all commitments to extend further credit, or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• could require us to apply all of our available cash to repay these borrowings.

We have pledged a significant portion of our assets as collateral under our debt facilities. If any of these lenders accelerate the repayment of borrowings, we may not have sufficient assets to repay our indebtedness and our lenders could exercise their rights against the collateral we have granted them

***Increases to interest rates (due to inflation or otherwise), disruptions in the credit markets, or changes to our credit ratings may adversely affect our business.***

While we currently generate significant cash flows from ongoing operations and have access to global credit markets through our various financing activities, interest rate increases, disruption in the credit markets, changes that may result from the implementation of new benchmark rates that replace the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR"), or changes to our credit ratings could negatively impact the availability or cost of funding.

During inflationary periods, interest rates have historically increased, which would have a direct effect on the interest expense of our borrowings. In particular, primarily in response to concerns about inflation, the U.S. Federal Reserve has significantly raised its benchmark federal funds rate, which has led to increases in interest rates in the credit markets. The U.S. Federal Reserve may continue to raise the federal funds rate, which will likely lead to higher interest rates in the credit markets and the possibility of lower asset values, slowing economic growth and/or possibly leading to a recession. We are exposed to increases in interest rates on our variable-rate borrowings, which consist of borrowings under our credit facility and our term loans. Therefore, interest rate increases, due to inflation or otherwise, could, increase our interest expense under these variable-rate facilities in the short-term and increase our financing costs as we refinance our existing variable-rate and fixed-rate long-term borrowings in the long term, or we could incur additional interest expense related to the issuance of incremental debt. These increased costs could reduce our profitability, impair our ability to meet our debt obligations, negatively impact our ability to maintain compliance with the financial covenants in our Credit Agreement, or increase the cost of financing our acquisition, investment, and development activity.

Reduced access to credit or increased costs could adversely affect our liquidity and capital resources or significantly increase our cost of capital.

***Our insurance costs may increase, we may not be able to obtain similar insurance coverage in the future, and the extent to which we can recover under our insurance policies for damages sustained at our operating properties in the event of inclement weather and casualty events, all could adversely affect our business***

We renew our insurance policies on an annual basis. The cost of coverage may become so high that we may need to further reduce our policy limits or agree to certain additional exclusions from our coverage. If we are unable to obtain sufficient insurance coverage, we could be at risk for increased potential losses, which could be substantial. Our debt instruments and other material agreements require us to meet certain standards related to insurance coverage. If we are unable to obtain sufficient insurance coverage to satisfy these requirements, an event of default could result under these debt instruments or material agreements.

Portions of our business are difficult or impracticable to insure. After carefully weighing the costs, risks, and benefits of retaining versus insuring various risks, as well as the availability of certain types of insurance coverage, we may opt to retain certain risks not covered by our insurance policies. Retained risks are associated with deductible limits or self-insured retentions, partial self-insurance programs and insurance policy coverage ceilings.

Flooding, blizzards, windstorms, earthquakes, hurricanes or other weather conditions could adversely affect our casino and horse racing locations. We maintain insurance coverage that may cover certain costs that we incur as a result of some natural disasters, which coverage is subject to deductibles, exclusions and limits on maximum benefits. We may not be able to fully collect, if at all, on any claims resulting from extreme weather conditions or other disasters. If any of our properties are damaged or if our operations are disrupted or face prolonged closure as a result of weather conditions in the future, or if weather conditions adversely impact general economic or other conditions in the areas in which our properties are located or from which we draw our patrons, the disruption could have a material adverse impact on our business.

We have "all risk" property insurance coverage for our operating properties which covers damage caused by a casualty loss (such as fire, natural disasters, acts of war, or terrorism). Our level of property insurance coverage, which is subject to policy maximum limits and certain exclusions, may not be adequate to cover all losses in the event of a major casualty. In addition, certain casualty events may not be covered at all under our policies. Therefore, certain acts could expose us to substantial uninsured losses. Any losses we incur that are not adequately covered by insurance may decrease our future operating income, require us to fund replacements or repairs for destroyed property and reduce the funds available for payment of our obligations.

**ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS**

In addition to the matters described below, we are also involved in ordinary routine litigation matters which are incidental to our business.

***Bob Baffert and Bob Baffert Racing Stables, Inc. v. Churchill Downs Incorporated, Bill Carstanjen and Alex Rankin***

On February 28, 2022, plaintiffs Bob Baffert and Bob Baffert Racing Stables, Inc. filed a complaint and motion for preliminary injunction against Churchill Downs Incorporated, its Chief Executive Officer Bill Carstanjen, and its Chairman of the Board of Directors Alex Rankin in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Kentucky, arising out of the Company's decision to suspend Mr. Baffert from entering horses trained by him at any Company-owned racetrack for a period of two years. The Company's two-year suspension of Mr. Baffert came after Baffert-trained horse, Medina Spirit, finished first in the 147th running of the Kentucky Derby but subsequently tested positive for betamethasone, a banned race-day substance. Plaintiffs allege that the Company's decisions to suspend Mr. Baffert from racing at any Company-owned racetrack and to prohibit horses trained by him (or any other suspended trainer) from accumulating Derby-qualifying points were unlawful. Plaintiffs assert claims for (i) violation of the due process clause, (ii) unlawful exclusion, (iii) violations of the federal antitrust laws, (iv) tortious interference with contract, and (v) tortious interference with prospective business advantage.

In addition to and separate from the Company's suspension of Mr. Baffert, on February 21, 2022, the Kentucky Horse Racing Commission ("KHRC") Board of Stewards suspended Mr. Baffert from racing in Kentucky for 90 days and issued a fine to him. The KHRC rejected Mr. Baffert's requests to stay the suspension. Mr. Baffert unsuccessfully sought judicial intervention relieving him from the KHRC suspension. On March 21, 2022, the Franklin County Circuit Court concluded Mr. Baffert was not entitled to a stay of the KHRC suspension and that he had not satisfied a single element required for a temporary injunction of the KHRC suspension. This decision was affirmed by the Kentucky Court of Appeals on April 1, 2022 in an order denying Mr. Baffert's motion for emergency relief. After the Kentucky Court of Appeals allowed the KHRC's 90-day suspension of Mr. Baffert to stand, plaintiffs voluntarily withdrew their motion for preliminary injunction against the Company without prejudice.

On May 2, 2022, the Company filed a motion to dismiss plaintiffs' complaint. Plaintiffs filed a renewed motion for preliminary injunction on December 15, 2022. On February 17, 2023, the Court issued a memorandum opinion and order granting the Company's motion to dismiss in part, allowing a portion of the due process claim to remain. In the same order, the Court denied Plaintiffs' motion for preliminary injunction, concluding that Plaintiff had not established irreparable injury and was not likely to succeed on the merits of the remaining claim. The Company, Mr. Carstanjen, and Mr. Rankin intend to defend this matter vigorously and believe that there are meritorious legal and factual defenses against plaintiffs' allegations and requests for relief.

*The following discussion and analysis of our consolidated financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in Part II, Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data. The following discussion provides an analysis of our results of operations and reasons for material changes therein for 2022 as compared to 2021.

**Our Business** 

Churchill Downs Incorporated ("CDI" or the "Company") has been creating extraordinary entertainment experiences for nearly 150 years, beginning with the Company's most iconic and enduring asset, the Kentucky Derby. Headquartered in Louisville, Kentucky, CDI has expanded through the development of live and historical racing entertainment venues, the growth of the TwinSpires horse racing online wagering business and the operation and development of regional casino gaming properties.

In the first quarter of 2022, we updated our operating segments to reflect the internal management reporting used by our chief operating decision maker to evaluate results of operations and to assess performance and allocate resources. During the first quarter of 2022, our chief operating decision maker decided to include the results of our United Tote business in the TwinSpires segment as we evolve our strategy to integrate the United Tote offering with TwinSpires Horse Racing, which we believe will create additional business-to-business revenue opportunities. For additional information, refer to [Note 2](#ic507b2994e064cb18f6278e8d992306d_190)1 - Segment Information, to the notes to consolidated financial statements included in Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

***2022 Transactions***

*Peninsula Pacific Entertainment Acquisition*

On November 1, 2022, the Company completed the acquisition of substantially all the assets of Peninsula Pacific Entertainment, LLC ("P2E") with a base purchase price of $2.75 billion ("P2E Transaction") subject to working capital and other purchase price adjustments. The Company acquired the following properties as part of the P2E Transaction: Colonial Downs Racetrack ("Colonial Downs") in New Kent, Virginia, six historical racing entertainment venues in Virginia, del Lago Resort & Casino in Waterloo, New York ("del Lago"), and the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Sioux City, Iowa ("Hard Rock Sioux City"). The P2E Transaction also included development rights for two properties currently under development in Dumfries and Emporia, Virginia with up to five additional Historical Racing Machines ("HRMs") entertainment venues as well as ONE Casino and Resort in collaboration with Urban One.

*Chasers Poker Room Acquisition*

On September 2, 2022, the Company completed the acquisition of Chasers Poker Room ("Chasers") in Salem, New Hampshire ("Chasers Transaction"). Chasers is a charitable gaming facility located approximately 30 miles from Boston, Massachusetts, that offers poker and a variety of table games. The Company plans to develop an expanded charitable gaming facility in Salem to accommodate HRMs and table games. As part of the Chasers Transaction, the Company made an initial payment to the sellers for rights to operate the poker room and to build a historical racing entertainment venue.

*Ellis Park Acquisition*

On September 26, 2022, the Company completed the acquisition of Ellis Park Racing & Gaming ("Ellis Park Transaction"). Ellis Park Racing & Gaming ("Ellis Park") is a racetrack and gaming facility venue with HRMs. As part of the acquisition, the Company also acquired the rights to construct an HRM entertainment venue in Owensboro, Kentucky.

*Calder Land Sale*

On June 17, 2022, the Company closed on the sale of 115.7 acres of land near Calder Casino ("Calder") for $291.0 million to Link Logistics Real Estate, a Blackstone portfolio company. The Company received cash proceeds of $279.0 million which was net of $12.0 million of transaction costs.

***Other Business Activities***

*Impairment*

During the quarter ended December 31, 2022, the Company evaluated whether events or circumstances changed that would indicate it is more likely than not that any of the Company's intangible assets, goodwill, or property and equipment, were impaired. Based on the Company's evaluation, the Company concluded that a trigger event for impairment testing occurred related to the Presque Isle Downs and Casino ("Presque Isle") gaming rights, trademark, and the reporting unit's goodwill due to continued negative economic conditions that negatively impacted the estimates and assumptions utilized in our indefinite-lived intangible asset impairment assessment. As a result of the updated discount rate to reflect the increased uncertainty of the cash flows and updated projected cash flow stream, the Company recorded a $33.4 million non-cash impairment charge in fourth quarter of 2022 for the Presque Isle gaming rights and trademark.

*Exit of the Direct Online Sports and Casino Business*

In 2022, the Company exited the direct online Sports and Casino business in every state except for Pennsylvania and Arizona. During the quarter ended March 31, 2022, the Company evaluated whether this planned exit would indicate it is more likely than not that any of the Company's intangible assets, long-lived assets, current assets or property and equipment, were impaired. Based on the Company's evaluation, the Company recorded a $4.9 million non-cash impairment charge related to certain assets in the TwinSpires segment. The Company will maintain its retail Sports operations and has monetized two of its online market access licenses

*Impact of the COVID-19 Global Pandemic*

In March 2020, as a result of the COVID-19 outbreak, we temporarily suspended operations at our wholly-owned and managed gaming properties. In May 2020, we began to reopen our properties with patron restrictions and gaming limitations, which fluctuated with the changing environment. All of our gaming properties have remained open since January 2021.

The 146th Kentucky Oaks and Derby were held in the third quarter of 2020 without spectators. During the second quarter of 2021, we held the 147th Kentucky Oaks and Derby with capacity restrictions in compliance with Kentucky venue limitations at that time. Due to such restrictions, our revenues from the Kentucky Oaks and Derby in each year were significantly less than we would otherwise expect. The 148th Kentucky Oaks and Derby were held in the second quarter of 2022 without capacity restrictions.

The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic, including the emergence of variant strains, will continue to impact the Company remains uncertain and will depend on many factors that are not within our control. We will continue to monitor for new developments related to the pandemic and assess these developments to maintain continuity in our operations.

**Key Indicators to Evaluate Business Results and Financial Condition**

Our management monitors a variety of key indicators to evaluate our business results and financial condition. These indicators include changes in net revenue, operating expense, operating income, earnings per share, outstanding debt balance, operating cash flow and capital spend.

Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). We also use non-GAAP measures, including EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) and Adjusted EBITDA. We believe that the use of Adjusted EBITDA as a key performance measure of results of operations enables management and investors to evaluate and compare from period to period our operating performance in a meaningful and consistent manner. Our chief operating decision maker utilizes Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate segment performance, develop strategy and allocate resources. Adjusted EBITDA is a supplemental measure of our performance that is not required by, or presented in accordance with, GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income (as determined in accordance with GAAP) as a measure of our operating results.

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, adjusted for the following:

Adjusted EBITDA includes our portion of EBITDA from our equity investments.

Adjusted EBITDA excludes:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Transaction expense, net which includes:

–Acquisition, disposition, and land sale related charges;

–Direct online Sports and Casino business exit costs; and

–Other transaction expense, including legal, accounting and other deal-related expense.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Stock-based compensation expense;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Rivers Des Plaines' impact on our investments in unconsolidated affiliates from:

------

–The impact of changes in fair value of interest rate swaps, and

–Legal reserves and transaction costs;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Asset impairments;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Gain on Calder land sale;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Legal reserves;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Pre-opening expense; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Other charges, recoveries and expenses

As of December 31, 2021, Arlington International Racecourse ("Arlington") ceased racing and simulcast operations. On February 15, 2023, the Company closed on the sale of the property to the Chicago Bears. For more information, refer to Note 4, Dispositions and Assets Held for Sale, to the notes to consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Arlington's operating loss in the current quarter and year is treated as an adjustment to EBITDA and is included in Other expenses, net in the Reconciliation of Comprehensive Income to Adjusted EBITDA.

For segment reporting, Adjusted EBITDA includes intercompany revenue and expense totals that are eliminated in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss). See the Reconciliation of Comprehensive Income (Loss) to Adjusted EBITDA included in this section for additional information.

***Year Ended December 31, 2022 Compared to the Year Ended December 31, 2021***

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Net revenue increased $212.6 million driven by a $205.5 million increase from Live and Historical Racing primarily due to revenue attributable to the Virginia properties acquired in the P2E, Ellis Park and Chasers Transactions, the running of the 2022 Kentucky Derby without capacity restrictions that were in place in 2021, and continued growth at our Oak Grove property and at Derby City Gaming and a $60.5 million increase from Gaming primarily due to our New York and Iowa properties acquired in the P2E Transaction and increased revenue in Maine, Florida, and Maryland as a result of certain capacity restrictions during the first half of 2021 that did not recur. Partially offsetting these increases were a $15.0 million decrease in TwinSpires primarily due to a decrease in Horse Racing as a higher portion of our patrons returned to wagering at brick-and-mortar facilities instead of wagering online and the exit of our direct online Sports and Casino business in the first quarter of 2022 and a $38.4 million decrease from All Other, primarily due to Arlington not conducting live racing and simulcast during 2022.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Operating income increased $37.4 million due to a $93.5 million increase in Live and Historical Racing primarily due to the running of the 2022 Kentucky Derby without restrictions, increases in revenue at our historical racing facilities in Kentucky, and the incremental revenue from the acquired properties in Virginia, and a $37.2 million increase in TwinSpires driven by decreased online marketing and promotions expense. Partially offsetting these increases were a $34.2 million increase in transaction expense driven by the P2E Transaction, a $25.7 million increase in selling, general and administrative expenses due to an increase in Corporate compensation related expenses, legal fees, and charitable donations, a $23.0 million increase in asset impairments, a decrease of $9.3 million in All Other due to Arlington not conducting live racing in 2022, and a $1.1 million decrease in Gaming.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Net income from continuing operations increased $190.3 million. The following items impacted comparability of the Company's net income from continuing operations for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to the prior year: a $198.7 million non-cash after tax gain on the sale of Calder assets and a $6.5 million after tax decrease in expense related to Rivers Des Plaines' legal reserves and transaction costs. Offsetting these increases in net income were a $17.8 million non-cash after-tax increase in asset impairments; a $35.5 million after-tax increase in transaction, pre-opening and other expenses, net, a $2.8 million after-tax increase in legal reserves, and $0.7 million of other charges. Excluding these items, net income increased $41.8 million primarily due to a $63.5 million after-tax increase driven by the results of our operations and equity in income from our unconsolidated affiliates, partially offset by a $21.7 million after-tax increase in interest expense associated with higher outstanding debt balances.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Adjusted EBITDA increased $136.6 million driven by a $112.5 million increase from Live and Historical Racing primarily due to an increase attributable to the Virginia properties acquired in the P2E, Ellis Park and Chasers Transactions, an increase due to the running of the 2022 Kentucky Derby without capacity restrictions that were in place in 2021, and continued growth at our Oak Grove property and at Derby City Gaming, a $31.4 million increase from TwinSpires primarily due to a decrease in marketing spend as a result of exiting the Sports and Casino business, and a $10.0 million increase from Gaming driven by an increase in New York and Iowa from the properties acquired

------

as part of the P2E Transaction and an increase primarily from our properties in Maine, Florida, and Louisiana as a result of capacity restrictions in 2021 that did not recur. These increases were partially offset by declines in Mississippi and Pennsylvania driven by the current economic factors and a $17.3 million decline in All Other primarily due to Arlington not conducting live racing and simulcast operations in 2022.

***Year Ended December 31, 2022 Compared to the Year Ended December 31, 2021***

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Live and Historical Racing revenue for 2022 increased $215.8 million primarily due to $62.4 million in revenue attributable to the Virginia properties acquired in the P2E Transaction, $8.0 million in revenue attributable to properties acquired in the Ellis Park and Chasers Transactions, $77.6 million increased revenue at Churchill Downs Racetrack primarily due to the running of the 2022 Kentucky Derby without capacity restrictions that were in place in 2021, and $67.8 million increase driven primarily by growth at our Oak Grove property and Derby City Gaming as well as the opening of Turfway Park in September 2022.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• TwinSpires revenue decreased $16.2 million primarily due to a decrease in pari-mutuel handle as a higher portion of our patrons returned to wagering at brick-and-mortar facilities instead of wagering online and the decision to exit the direct online Sports and Casino business in the first quarter of 2022.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Gaming revenue increased $63.4 million primarily due to $46.5 million attributable to our New York and Iowa properties acquired in the P2E Transaction, $25.5 million in Maine, Florida, and Maryland as a result of certain capacity restrictions during the first half of 2021 and a $9.7 million increase in Louisiana as a result of the 2022 Jazz Festival that was not held in the prior year due to COVID-19 and shutdowns in 2021 due to Hurricane Ida that did not recur. Partially offsetting these increases was a decrease of $18.3 million primarily from our Mississippi and Pennsylvania properties due to the current economic conditions.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• All Other revenue decreased $45.9 million primarily as a result of Arlington ceasing racing and simulcast operations at the end of 2021.

***Year Ended December 31, 2022 Compared to the Year Ended December 31, 2021***

Significant items affecting comparability of consolidated operating expense include:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;***•*** The additional properties acquired as part of the P2E, Ellis Park and Chasers Transactions drove increases in taxes and purses, salaries and benefits, selling, general and administrative and other operating expenses.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• In May 2022, we ran the Kentucky Derby without capacity restrictions which drove increases in salaries and benefits and other operating expenses.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• In addition to the impacts from the acquisitions, Corporate compensation related expenses, legal fees, and charitable donations also contributed to increases in selling, general and administrative expenses.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;***•*** The decline of $21.6 million in marketing and advertising expense was primarily due to decreased online marketing by our TwinSpires Sports and Casino business due to the decision to exit the direct online Sports and Casino business. This decrease was partially offset by increased marketing spend at the Kentucky HRM properties in our Live and Historical Racing segment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The increase in asset impairments was driven by a $33.4 million non-cash impairment charge at Presque Isle.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Transaction expense increased $34.2 million due to the P2E, Ellis Park, and Chasers Transactions.

**Adjusted EBITDA by Segment**

We believe that the use of Adjusted EBITDA as a key performance measure of the results of operations enables management and investors to evaluate and compare from period to period our operating performance in a meaningful and consistent manner. Adjusted EBITDA is a supplemental measure of our performance that is not required by or presented in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income (as determined in accordance with GAAP) as a measure of our operating results.

***Year Ended December 31, 2022 Compared to the Year Ended December 31, 2021***

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Live and Historical Racing Adjusted EBITDA increased $112.5 million due to a $30.1 million increase attributable to the Virginia properties acquired in the P2E Transaction, a $0.7 million increase attributable to properties acquired in the Ellis Park and Chasers Transactions, a $59.1 million increase at Churchill Downs Racetrack primarily due to the running of the 2022 Kentucky Derby without capacity restrictions that were in place in 2021, and a $22.6 million increase primarily due to the continued growth at our Oak Grove property and at Derby City Gaming.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• TwinSpires Adjusted EBITDA increased $31.4 million primarily due to a $40.0 million increase from our Sports and Casino business primarily due to decreased marketing and promotional activities and an $8.6 million decrease attributable to lower Horse Racing net revenue.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Gaming Adjusted EBITDA increased $10.0 million driven by a $17.9 million increase in New York and Iowa from the properties acquired as part of the P2E Transaction, an $11.6 million increase primarily from our properties in Maine, Florida, and Louisiana as a result of capacity restrictions in 2021 that did not recur, and a $2.8 million increase from our equity investments. Partially offsetting these increases was a decrease of $22.3 million primarily from our Mississippi and Pennsylvania properties due to the current economic conditions.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• All Other Adjusted EBITDA decreased $17.3 million primarily due to the elimination of the $9.7 million operating income related to Arlington as a result of ceasing racing and simulcast operations at the end of 2021 and a $7.6 million increase in Corporate compensation related expenses, legal fees, and charitable donations.

**Consolidated Balance Sheet**

The following table is a summary of our overall financial position:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| | **As of December 31,** | **As of December 31,** | **Change** |
| *(in billions)* | **2022** | **2021** | **Change** |
| Total assets | $6.2 | $3.0 | $3.2 |
| Total liabilities | 5.6 | 2.7 | 2.9 |
| Total shareholders' equity | 0.6 | 0.3 | 0.3 |

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;***•*** Total assets increased $3.2 billion driven by a $2.4 billion increase in goodwill and other intangibles from the P2E, Ellis Park and Chasers Transactions and a $1.0 billion increase in property and equipment, net from the P2E and Ellis Park Transactions and construction projects. Partially offsetting these increases was a $0.2 billion decrease in cash and cash equivalents due to outflows for bond and term loan interest, capital expenditures related to ongoing construction projects and payments for the purchases of Ellis Park and Chasers.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Total liabilities increased $2.9 billion driven by a $1.2 billion increase in notes payable, net of debt issuance costs, related to the closing of the 2030 Senior Notes, a $1.4 billion increase in long-term debt, driven by the P2E

------

Transaction, a $0.2 billion increase in liabilities assumed as part of the P2E, Ellis Park and Chasers Transactions, and an increase in deferred income taxes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Total shareholders' equity increased $0.3 billion driven by net income of $0.4 billion, partially offsetting this increase was $0.1 billion of primarily stock repurchases, and taxes paid related to net share settlement of stock awards.

**Liquidity and Capital Resources** 

Our primary sources of liquidity and capital resources have been and will continue to be cash flow from operations, borrowings under our credit facility, and proceeds from the issuance of debt securities. Our ongoing liquidity will depend on a number of factors, including available cash resources, cash flow from operations, acquisitions or equity investments, funding of construction for development projects, and our compliance with our covenants under our credit facility.

The following table is a summary of our liquidity and cash flows:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| | **Year Ended December 31,** | **Year Ended December 31,** | **Change** |
| *(in billions)* | **2022** | **2021** | **Change** |
| Cash Flows from: |  |  |  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Operating activities | $0.5 | $0.5 | $— |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Investing activities | (3.1) | (0.1) | (3.0) |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Financing activities | 2.4 |  | 2.4 |

---

*Operating Cash Flow*

Cash provided by operating activities increased from increased operating income, increased distributions from unconsolidated affiliates, and tax refunds in the current year driven by prior years' tax return losses. These increases were partially offset by an increase in net interest paid and transaction costs paid as part of the P2E Transaction and other operating expenses. We anticipate that cash flows from operations over the next twelve months will be adequate to fund our business operations and capital expenditures.

*Investing Cash Flow*

Cash used in investing activities increased $3.0 billion driven primarily by $3.0 billion used for the P2E, Ellis Park and Chasers Transactions, increased capital maintenance expenditures of $0.3 billion, partially offset by proceeds from the Calder land sale of $0.3 billion.

*Financing Cash Flow*

Cash provided by financing activities increased $2.4 billion primarily driven by a $2.3 billion increase in net borrowings from long-term debt and a $0.1 billion decrease in common stock repurchases.

***Capital Expenditures***

Included in cash flows from investing activities are capital maintenance expenditures and capital project expenditures. Capital maintenance expenditures relate to the replacement of existing fixed assets with a useful life greater than one year that are obsolete, exhausted, or no longer cost effective to repair. Capital project expenditures represent fixed asset additions related to land or building improvements to new or existing assets or purchases of new (non-replacement) equipment or software related to specific projects deemed necessary expenditures.

We have announced several project capital investments, including the following: Churchill Downs Racetrack First Turn Experience and the Paddock Project, the Derby City Gaming Expansion and Hotel, Derby City Gaming Downtown, the Ellis Park HRM facility in Owensboro, Kentucky, the Terre Haute Casino Resort, a New Hampshire HRM Facility, the Virginia HRM entertainment venues in Dumfries and Emporia, and HRMs in our Louisiana OTBs. We currently expect our project capital to be approximately $575 to $675 million in 2023, although this amount may vary significantly based on the timing of work completed, unanticipated delays, and timing of payments to third parties.

***Common Stock Repurchase Program***

On September 29, 2021, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a common stock repurchase program of up to $500.0 million ("2021 Stock Repurchase Program"). The 2021 Stock Repurchase Program includes and is not in addition to the unspent amount remaining under the prior 2018 Stock Purchase Program authorization. Repurchases may be made at management's discretion from time to time on the open market (either with or without a 10b5-1 plan) or through privately negotiated transactions. The repurchase program has no time limit and may be suspended or discontinued at any time. We had $270.2 million of repurchase authority remaining under this program on December 31, 2022.

------

***Dividends***

On October 25, 2022, the Company's Board of Directors approved an annual cash dividend on our common stock of $0.714 per outstanding share, which represented a 7% increase over the prior year. The dividend was payable on January 6, 2023 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on December 2, 2022. The 7% increase marked the 12th consecutive year that the Company has increased the dividend. The payment and amount of future dividends will be determined by the Board of Directors and will depend upon, among other things, our operating results, financial condition, cash requirements and general business conditions at the time such payment is considered.

***Credit Agreement***

On December 27, 2017, we entered into a senior secured credit agreement ("2017 Credit Agreement") with a syndicate of lenders. The 2017 Credit Agreement provided for a $700.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility due 2024 (the "Revolver") and a $400.0 million senior secured term loan B due 2024 (the "Term Loan B"). Included in the maximum borrowing of $700.0 million under the Revolver was a letter of credit sub facility not to exceed $50.0 million and a swing line commitment up to a maximum principal amount of $50.0 million.

The Term Loan B bears interest at LIBOR plus 200 basis points and requires quarterly payments of 0.25% of the original $400.0 million balance, or $1.0 million per quarter. The Term Loan B may be subject to additional mandatory prepayment from excess cash flow on an annual basis per the provisions of the 2017 Credit Agreement. The Company is required to pay a commitment fee on the unused portion of the Revolver as determined by a pricing grid based on the consolidated total net secured leverage ratio of the Company. For the period ended December 31, 2022, the Company's commitment fee rate was 0.175%.

On March 17, 2021, the Company entered into the Incremental Joinder Agreement No. 1 (the "Joinder") to its 2017 Credit Agreement which provided $300.0 million in New Term Loan Commitments ("Term Loan B-1") as a new tranche of term loans under the existing 2017 Credit Agreement (as conformed to recognize the new loan) and carries a maturity date of March 17, 2028.

The Term Loan B-1 bears interest at LIBOR plus 200 basis points and requires quarterly payments of 0.25% of the original $300.0 million balance. The Term Loan B-1 may be subject to additional mandatory prepayment from excess cash flow on an annual basis per the provisions of the 2017 Credit Agreement.

On April 13, 2022, the Company amended the 2017 Credit Agreement (as amended, the "Credit Agreement") to extend the maturity date of its existing Revolver to April 13, 2027, to increase the commitments under the existing Revolver from $700.0 million to $1.2 billion, and to increase the swing line commitment from $50.0 million to $100.0 million. The amendment also provides for a senior secured Delayed Draw Term Loan A due April 13, 2027 in the amount of $800.0 million, which was drawn on November 1, 2022 as part of the financing for the P2E Transaction. For more information regarding the P2E Transaction, refer to Note 3, Acquisitions, to the notes to consolidated financial statements included in Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

------

The Revolver and Delayed Draw Term Loan A bear interest at the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") plus 10 basis points, plus a variable applicable margin which is determined by the Company's net leverage ratio. As of December 31, 2022, that applicable margin was 125 basis points which was based on the pricing grid in the Credit Agreement. During 2022, we have borrowed $664.1 million on our Revolver which provided the Company with financing for the Chasers, Ellis Park, and P2E Transactions. For more regarding the Chasers, Ellis Park and P2E Transactions, refer to Note 3, Acquisitions, to the notes to consolidated financial statements included in Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. The Company had $524.8 million available borrowing capacity, after consideration of $11.1 million in outstanding letters of credit, under the Revolver as of December 31, 2022.

The phase-out of LIBOR for existing debt agreements is set for June 30, 2023. The Credit Agreement includes a general process for establishing an alternative reference rate to the extent LIBOR is phased out. The Company is in the process of transitioning its financing from LIBOR to alternative reference rates. These transition activities are not expected to have a material impact on the Company's financial statements.

The Credit Agreement is collateralized by substantially all the wholly-owned assets of the Company. The Credit Agreement contains certain customary affirmative and negative covenants, which include limitations on liens, investments, indebtedness, dispositions, mergers and acquisitions, the making of restricted payments, changes in the nature of business, changes in fiscal year, and transactions with affiliates. The Credit Agreement also contains financial covenants providing for the maintenance of a maximum consolidated secured net leverage ratio and maintenance of a minimum consolidated interest coverage ratio.

|:---|:---|:---|
| | Actual as of <br>December 31, 2022 | Requirement |
| Interest coverage ratio | 6.6 to 1.0 | > 2.5 to 1.0 |
| Consolidated total secured net leverage ratio | 0.9 to 1.0 | < 4.0 to 1.0 |

The Company was compliant with all applicable covenants on December 31, 2022.

***2027 Senior Notes***

On March 25, 2019, we completed an offering of $600.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 5.50% Senior Unsecured Notes that mature on April 1, 2027 (the "2027 Senior Notes") in a private offering to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A that is exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and to certain non-U.S. persons in accordance with Regulation S under the Securities Act.

Upon completion of this offering, the aggregate principal amount outstanding of the Existing 2028 Notes, together with the Additional 2028 Notes (collectively, the "2028 Senior Notes"), is $700.0 million.

The Additional 2028 Notes were issued at 103.25% of the principal amount, plus interest deemed to have accrued from January 15, 2021, with interest payable on January 15<sup>th</sup> and July 15<sup>th</sup> of each year, commencing on July 15, 2021. The 2028 Senior

------

Notes will vote as one class under the indenture governing the 2028 Senior Notes. The 3.25% premium is being amortized through interest expense, net over the term of the Additional 2028 Notes.

The Company used the net proceeds from the Additional 2028 Notes and the Term Loan B-1: (i) to repay indebtedness outstanding under our Revolver, (ii) to fund related transaction fees and expenses, and (iii) for working capital and other general corporate purposes.

The 2028 Senior Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture, dated December 27, 2017 (the "2028 Indenture"), among the Company, certain subsidiaries of the Company as guarantors (the "2028 Guarantors"), and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee. The Company may redeem some or all the 2028 Senior Notes at redemption prices set forth in the 2028 Indenture. The terms of the 2028 Indenture, among other things, limit the ability of the Company to: (i) incur additional debt and issue preferred stock, (ii) pay dividends or make other restricted payments, (iii) make certain investments, (iv) create liens, (v) allow restrictions on the ability of certain of our subsidiaries to pay dividends or make other payments, (vi) sell assets, (vii) merge or consolidate with other entities, and (viii) enter into transactions with affiliates.

***2030 Senior Notes***

**Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates**

Our significant accounting policies and recently adopted accounting policies are more fully described in Note 2, Significant Accounting Policies of the notes to consolidated financial statements included in Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with GAAP, which requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that we believe are reasonable based on our historical experience, contract terms, observance of known trends in our Company and the industry as a whole and information available from other outside sources. Our estimates affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expense during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from those initial estimates.

Our critical accounting estimates relate to goodwill and certain indefinite-lived intangible assets.

***Goodwill and certain indefinite-lived intangible assets***

*Acquisition of certain identifiable indefinite-lived intangible assets*

In conjunction with the acquisition of a business, the Company records identifiable indefinite-lived intangible assets acquired at their respective fair values as of the date of acquisition. Our indefinite-lived intangible assets primarily consist of gaming rights and trademarks. Gaming rights and trademarks are considered indefinite-lived intangible assets that do not require amortization based on our future expectations to operate our gaming facilities and use the trademarks indefinitely, and our historical experience in renewing these intangible assets at minimal cost with various state gaming commissions.

We use various valuation methods to determine initial fair value of our indefinite-lived intangible assets, including the Greenfield Method and relief-from-royalty method of the income approach, all of which use significant unobservable inputs, or Level 3 inputs, as defined by the fair value hierarchy. The use of these valuation methods requires us to make significant estimates and assumptions about future revenue and operating expenses, expected start-up costs, capital expenditures, royalty rate, and the discount rate. The fair values of gaming rights are generally determined using the Greenfield Method, which is an income approach methodology that calculates the present value based on a projected cash flow stream. This method assumes

------

that the gaming rights provides the opportunity to develop a casino or historical racing facility in a specified region, and that the present value of the projected cash flows are a result of the realization of advantages contained in these rights. Under this methodology, the acquirer is expected to absorb all start-up costs, as well as incur all expenses pertaining to the acquisition and/or the creation of all tangible and intangible assets. The estimated future revenue and operating expenses, start-up costs of the acquired business, and the discount rate are the primary assumptions and estimates used in these valuations. The fair values of trademarks are generally determined using the relief-from-royalty method of the income approach, which estimates the fair value of the intangible asset by discounting the fair value of the hypothetical royalty payments a market participant would be willing to pay to enjoy the benefits of the trademarks. The estimated future revenue, royalty rate, and the discount rate are the primary assumptions and estimates used in these valuations. The discount rates used to discount expected future cash flows to present value are generally derived from the weighted average cost of capital analysis and adjusted for the size and/or risk of the asset. Changes in estimates or the application of alternative assumptions could produce significantly different results.

*Assessments of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets*

We perform our annual review for impairment of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets on April 1 of each fiscal year, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not the asset is impaired. Adverse industry or economic trends, lower projections of profitability, or a sustained decline in our market capitalization, among other items, may be indications of potential impairment issues which are triggering events requiring the testing of an asset's carrying value for recoverability.

Goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are required to be tested annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that an asset is impaired. An entity may first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to complete the impairment test using a more likely than not criteria. If an entity believes it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is greater than the reporting unit's carrying value, including goodwill, the quantitative impairment test can be bypassed. Alternatively, an entity has an unconditional option to bypass the qualitative assessment and proceed directly to performing the quantitative impairment test. If a quantitative impairment test of goodwill is required, we generally determine the fair value under the market and income valuation approaches using inputs primarily related to discounted projected cash flows and price multiples of publicly traded comparable companies. If a quantitative impairment test of our indefinite-lived intangible assets is required, we generally determine the fair value using the Greenfield Method for gaming rights and relief-from-royalty method of the income approach for trademarks. Qualitative factors include macroeconomic conditions, industry and market conditions, cost factors and overall financial performance, among others. These factors require significant judgments and estimates, and application of alternative assumptions could produce materially different results. Evaluations of possible impairment require us to estimate, among other factors, forecasts of future operating results, revenue growth, operating expense, tax rates, start-up costs, capital expenditures, depreciation, working capital, discount rates, long-term growth rates, risk premiums, royalty rates, terminal values, and fair values of our reporting units and assets. The impairment tests for goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are subject to uncertainties arising from such events as changes in competitive conditions, the current economic environment, material changes in growth rate assumptions that could positively or negatively impact anticipated future operating conditions and cash flows, changes in the discount rate, and the impact of strategic decisions. If any of these factors were to materially change, such change may require a reevaluation of our goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets. Changes in estimates or the application of alternative assumptions could produce significantly different results.

**ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK** 

We are exposed to market risks arising from adverse changes in:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• general economic trends; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• interest rate and credit risk.

***General economic trends***

Our business is sensitive to consumer confidence and reductions in consumers' discretionary spending, which may result from challenging economic conditions, unemployment levels and other changes in the economy. Demand for entertainment and leisure activities is sensitive to consumers' disposable incomes, which can be adversely affected by economic conditions and unemployment levels. This could result in fewer patrons visiting our racetracks, HRM entertainment venues, online wagering sites, and gaming facilities, and/or may impact our customers' ability to wager with the same frequency and to maintain wagering levels.

***Interest rate and credit risk***

Our primary exposure to market risk relates to changes in interest rates. On December 31, 2022, we had $2.1 billion outstanding under our Credit Agreement, which bears interest at LIBOR and SOFR based variable rates. We are exposed to market risk on variable rate debt due to potential adverse changes in these rates. Assuming the outstanding balance of the debt facility remains constant, a one-percentage point increase in the LIBOR or SOFR rate would reduce net income and cash flows from operating activities by $15.4 million. The phase-out of LIBOR for existing debit agreements is set for June 30, 2023. The Credit Agreement includes a general process for establishing an alternative reference rate to the extent LIBOR is phased out. The Company is in the process of transitioning its financing from LIBOR to alternative reference rates. These transition activities are not expected to have a material impact on the Company's financial statements.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

**1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS**

Churchill Downs Incorporated ("CDI" or the "Company") has been creating extraordinary entertainment experiences for nearly 150 years, beginning with the Company's most iconic and enduring asset, the Kentucky Derby. Headquartered in Louisville, Kentucky, CDI has expanded through the development of live and historical racing entertainment venues, the growth of the TwinSpires horse racing online wagering business and the operation and development of regional casino gaming properties.

We own and operate 13 live and historical racing entertainment venues in three states, one of the largest online horse racing wagering platforms in the U.S., twelve casino gaming properties in ten states and ten retail sportsbooks. We were organized as a Kentucky corporation in 1928, and our principal executive offices are located in Louisville, Kentucky.

In the first quarter of 2022, we updated our operating segments to reflect the internal management reporting used by our chief operating decision maker to evaluate results of operations and to assess performance and allocate resources. During the first quarter of 2022, our chief operating decision maker decided to include the results of our United Tote business in the TwinSpires segment as we evolve our strategy to integrate the United Tote offering with TwinSpires Horse Racing, which we believe will create additional business-to-business revenue opportunities. For additional information, refer to Note 21, Segment Information.

***Acquisition of Peninsula Pacific Entertainment***

On November 1, 2022, the Company completed the acquisition of substantially all of the assets of Peninsula Pacific Entertainment LLC ("P2E") with a base purchase price of $2.75 billion ("P2E Transaction") subject to working capital and other purchase price adjustments. The P2E assets acquired included Colonial Downs Racetrack ("Colonial Downs") and six Historical Racing Machine ("HRM") entertainment venues in Virginia, del Lago Resort & Casino in New York ("del Lago"), and Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Iowa ("Hard Rock Sioux City"), as well as the development rights for Dumfries and Emporia HRM facilities in Virginia, up to five additional HRM entertainment venues in Virginia, and the potential for ONE Casino and Resort in Virginia in collaboration with Urban One.

Refer to Note 3, Acquisitions, for further information on the transaction.

***Acquisition of Ellis Park and Chasers Poker Room***

*Chasers Poker Room Acquisition*

On September 2, 2022, the Company completed the acquisition of Chasers Poker Room ("Chasers") in Salem, New Hampshire (the "Chasers Transaction"). As part of the transaction, we made an initial payment to the sellers for rights to operate the poker room and to build an HRM venue. Additional payments will be made once all necessary permits are obtained, and the planned historical racing entertainment venue is opened. The Company plans to develop an expanded charitable gaming facility in Salem to accommodate HRMs and table games.

*Ellis Park Acquisition*

On September 26, 2022, the Company completed the acquisition of Ellis Park Racing & Gaming ("Ellis Park") in Henderson, Kentucky, from Enchantment Holdings, LLC, an affiliate of Laguna Development Corporation, for total consideration of $79.0 million in cash, subject to certain working capital and other purchase price adjustments (the "Ellis Park Transaction").

Refer to Note 3, Acquisitions, for further information on the transactions.

***Impact of the COVID-19 Global Pandemic***

In March 2020, as a result of the COVID-19 outbreak, we temporarily suspended operations at our wholly-owned and managed gaming properties. In May 2020, we began to reopen our properties with patron restrictions and gaming limitations, which fluctuated with the changing environment. All of our gaming properties have remained open since January 2021.

The 146th Kentucky Oaks and Derby were held in the third quarter of 2020 without spectators. During the second quarter of 2021, we held the 147th Kentucky Oaks and Derby with capacity restrictions in compliance with Kentucky venue limitations at that time. Due to such restrictions, our revenues from the Kentucky Oaks and Derby in each year were significantly less than we would otherwise expect. The 148th Kentucky Oaks and Derby were held in the second quarter of 2022 without capacity restrictions.

The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic, including the emergence of variant strains, will continue to impact the Company remains uncertain and will depend on many factors that are not within our control. We will continue to monitor for new developments related to the pandemic and assess these developments to maintain continuity in our operations.

***Exit of the Direct Online Sports and Casino Business***

In 2022, the Company exited the direct online Sports and Casino business in every state except for Pennsylvania and Arizona. The Company will maintain its retail Sports operations and has monetized two of its online market access licenses.

**2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES**

***Principles of Consolidation***

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

We consolidate all subsidiaries in which we have a controlling financial interest and variable interest entities ("VIEs") for which we or one of our consolidated subsidiaries is the primary beneficiary. We consolidate a VIE when we have both the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the results of the VIE and the right to receive benefits or the obligation to absorb losses of the entity that could be potentially significant to the VIE.

***Use of Estimates***

Our financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), which requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that we believe are reasonable based on our historical experience, contract terms, observance of known trends in our Company and the industry as a whole and information available from other outside sources. Our estimates affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expense during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from those initial estimates.

***Goodwill and Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets***

Goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are required to be tested annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that an asset is impaired. An entity may first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to complete the impairment test using a more likely than not criteria. If an entity believes it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is greater than the reporting unit's carrying value, including goodwill, the quantitative impairment test can be bypassed. Alternatively, an entity has an unconditional option to bypass the qualitative assessment and proceed directly to performing the quantitative impairment test. If a quantitative impairment test of goodwill is required, we generally determine the fair value under the market and income valuation approaches using inputs primarily related to discounted projected cash flows and price multiples of publicly traded comparable companies. If a quantitative impairment test of our indefinite-lived intangible assets is required, we generally determine the fair value using the Greenfield Method for gaming rights and relief-from-royalty method of the income approach for trademarks. The Greenfield Method is an income approach methodology that calculates the present value based on a projected cash flow stream. Qualitative factors include macroeconomic conditions, industry and market conditions, cost factors and overall financial performance, among others. These factors require judgments and estimates, and application of alternative assumptions could produce significantly different results. Evaluations of possible impairment require us to estimate, among other factors, forecasts of future operating results, revenue growth, operating expense, tax rates, start-up costs, capital expenditures, depreciation, working capital, discount rates, long-term growth rates, risk premiums, royalty rates, terminal values and fair market values of our reporting units and assets. The estimated future revenue, operating expenses, start-up costs and discount rate are the primary inputs to the Greenfield Method. Changes in estimates or the application of alternative assumptions could produce significantly different results.

We perform our annual review for impairment of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets on April 1 of each fiscal year, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not the relevant asset is impaired. Adverse industry or economic trends, lower projections of profitability, or a sustained decline in our market capitalization, among other items, may be indications of potential impairment issues, which are triggering events requiring the testing of an asset's carrying value for recoverability. Goodwill is allocated and evaluated for impairment at the reporting unit level, which is defined as an operating segment or one level below an operating segment, referred to as a component. We are required to aggregate the components of an operating segment into one reporting unit if they have similar economic characteristics.

Our gaming rights and trademarks are considered indefinite-lived intangible assets that do not require amortization based on our future expectations to operate our gaming facilities and use the trademarks indefinitely and our historical experience in renewing these intangible assets at minimal cost with various state gaming commissions. The indefinite lived-intangible assets carrying value are tested annually, or more frequently, if indicators of impairment exist, by comparing the fair value of the recorded assets to the associated carrying amount. If the carrying amount of the gaming rights and trademark intangible assets exceed fair value, an impairment loss is recognized.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

***Property and Equipment***

We review the carrying value of our property and equipment to be held and used in our operations whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable from estimated future undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the asset's use and eventual disposition. Adverse industry or economic trends, lower projections of profitability, or a significant adverse change in legal factors or in the business climate, among other items, may be indications of potential impairment issues. If the undiscounted cash flows exceed the carrying value, no impairment is indicated. If the undiscounted cash flows do not exceed the carrying value, an impairment is recorded based on the fair value of the asset.

Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets as follows: 10 to 40 years for grandstands and buildings, 2 to 10 years for equipment, 2 to 10 years for furniture and fixtures and 10 to 20 years for tracks and other improvements.

***Revenue Recognition***

We generate revenue from pari-mutuel wagering transactions with customers related to live races, simulcast races, and historical races as well as simulcast host fees earned from other wagering sites. Our racetracks that host live races also generate revenue through sponsorships, admissions (including luxury suites), personal seat licenses ("PSLs"), television rights, concessions, programs and parking. Concessions, programs, and parking revenue is recognized once the good or service is delivered.

Our live racetracks' revenue and income are influenced by our racing calendar. Similarly, TwinSpires Horse Racing revenue and income is influenced by racing calendars. Therefore, revenue and operating results for any interim quarter are not generally indicative of the revenue and operating results for the year and may not be comparable with results for the corresponding period of the previous year. We historically have had fewer live racing days during the first quarter of each year, and the majority of our live racing revenue occurs during the second quarter with the running of the Kentucky Oaks and Kentucky Derby.

For live races we present at our racetracks, we recognize revenue on wagers we accept from customers at our racetrack ("on-track revenue") and revenue we earn from exporting our live racing signals to other racetracks, off-track betting facilities ("OTBs"), and advance deposit wagering providers ("export revenue"). For simulcast races we display at our racetracks, OTBs, and TwinSpires' platforms, we recognize revenue we earn from providing a wagering service to our customers on these imported live races ("import revenue"). TwinSpires import revenue is generated through advance deposit wagering which consists of patrons wagering through an advance deposit account. Each wagering contract for on-track revenue, and import revenue contains a single performance obligation and our export revenue contracts contain a series of distinct services that form a single performance obligation. The transaction price for on-track revenue and import revenue is fixed based on the established commission rate we are entitled to retain. The transaction price for export revenue is variable based on the simulcast host fee we charge our customers for exporting our signal. We may provide cash incentives in conjunction with wagering transactions we accept from TwinSpires' customers. These cash incentives represent consideration payable to a customer and therefore are treated as a reduction of the transaction price for the wagering transaction. Our export revenue contracts generally have a duration of one year or less. These arrangements are licenses of intellectual property containing a usage-based royalty. As a result, we have elected to use the practical expedient to omit disclosure related to remaining performance obligations for our export revenue contracts. We recognize on-track revenue, export revenue, and import revenue once the live race event is made official by the relevant racing regulatory body.

We recognize revenue we earn from providing a wagering service to our customers on historical races at our HRM facilities. The transaction price for HRM revenue is based on the established commission rate we are entitled to retain for each wager on the HRM. We recognize HRM revenue once the historical race has been completed on the HRM, net of the liability to the pool.

We evaluate our on-track revenue, export revenue, import revenue, and HRM revenue contracts in order to determine whether we are acting as the principal or as the agent when providing services, which we consider in determining if revenue should be reported gross or net. An entity is a principal if it controls the specified service before that service is transferred to a customer.

The revenue we recognize for on-track revenue, import revenue, and HRM revenue is the commission we are entitled to retain for providing a wagering service to our customers. For these arrangements, we are the principal as we control the wagering service; therefore, any charges, including any applicable simulcast fees, we incur for delivering the wagering service are presented as operating expenses.

For export revenue, our customer is the third-party wagering site such as a racetrack, OTB, or advance deposit wagering provider. Therefore, the revenue we recognize for export revenue is the simulcast host fee we earn for exporting our racing signal to the third-party wagering site.

Our admission contracts are either for a single live racing event day or multiple days. Our PSLs, sponsorships, and television rights contracts generally relate to multiple live racing event days. Multiple day admission, PSLs, sponsorships, and television

------

Churchill Downs Incorporated

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

rights contracts contain a distinct series of services that form single performance obligations. Sponsorship contracts generally include performance obligations related to admissions and advertising rights at our racetracks. Television rights contracts contain a performance obligation related to the rights to distribute certain live racing events on media platforms. The transaction prices for our admissions, PSLs, sponsorships, and television rights contracts are fixed. We allocate the transaction price to our sponsorship contract performance obligations based on the estimated relative standalone selling price of each distinct service.

The revenue we recognize for admissions to a live racing event day is recognized once the related event is complete. For admissions, PSLs, sponsorships, and television rights contracts that relate to multiple live racing event days, we recognize revenue over time using an output method of each completed live racing event day as our measure of progress. Each completed live racing event day corresponds with the transfer of the relevant service to a customer and therefore is considered a faithful depiction of our efforts to satisfy the promises in these contracts. This output method results in measuring the value transferred to date to the customer relative to the remaining services promised under the contracts. Certain premium live racing event days such as the Kentucky Derby and Oaks result in a higher value of revenue allocated relative to other live racing event days due to, among other things, the quality of thoroughbreds racing, higher levels of on-track attendance, national broadcast audience, local and national media coverage, and overall entertainment value of the event. While these performance obligations are satisfied over time, the timing of when this revenue is recognized is directly associated with the occurrence of our live racing events, which is when the majority of our revenues recognized at a point in time are also recognized.

Timing of revenue recognition may differ from the timing of invoicing to customers for our long-term contracts for racing event-related services. We generally invoice customers prior to delivery of services for our admissions, PSLs, sponsorships, and television rights contracts. We recognize a receivable and a contract liability at the time we have an unconditional right to receive payment. When cash is received in advance of delivering services under our contracts, we defer revenue and recognize it in accordance with our policies for that type of contract. In situations where the timing of revenue recognition differs from the timing of invoicing, we have determined our contracts do not include a significant financing component. The primary purpose of our invoicing terms is to allow our customers to secure the right to the specific services provided under our contracts, not to receive financing from our customers.

Gaming revenue primarily consists of gaming transactions. Other operating revenue, such as food and beverage or hotel revenue, is recognized once delivery of the product or service has occurred.

The transaction price for gaming transactions is the difference between gaming wins and losses. Gaming wager revenue is recognized when the wager settles.

The majority of our HRM facilities and gaming properties offer loyalty programs that enable customers to earn loyalty points based on their play. HRM and gaming transactions involve two performance obligations for those customers earning loyalty points under the Company's loyalty programs and a single performance obligation for customers who do not participate in the program. Loyalty points are primarily redeemable for free wagering activities and food and beverage. For purposes of allocating the transaction price in an HRM and gaming transaction between the wagering performance obligation and the obligation associated with the loyalty points earned, the Company allocates an amount to the loyalty point contract liability based on the stand-alone selling price of the points earned, which is determined by the value of a loyalty point that can be redeemed for wagering activities or food and beverage. For gaming transactions, an amount of the transaction price allocated to the gaming performance obligation using the residual approach as the stand-alone price for wagers is highly variable and no set established price exists for such wagers. For HRM transactions, the amount of the transaction price allocated to the HRM performance obligation is the commission rate we are entitled to retain. The loyalty point contract liability amount is deferred and recognized as revenue when the customer redeems the points for a wagering transaction or food and beverage, and such goods or services are delivered to the customer.

***Income Taxes***

We use estimates and judgments for financial reporting to determine our current tax liability and deferred taxes. In accordance with the liability method of accounting for income taxes, we recognize the amount of taxes payable or refundable for the current year and deferred tax assets and liabilities for the future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the consolidated financial statements or tax returns.

Adjustments to deferred taxes are determined based upon the changes in differences between the book basis and tax basis of our assets and liabilities and measured using enacted tax rates we estimate will be applicable when these differences are expected to reverse. Changes in current tax laws, enacted tax rates or the estimated level of taxable income or non-deductible expense could change the valuation of deferred tax assets and liabilities and affect the overall effective tax rate and tax provision.

Churchill Downs Incorporated

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

When tax returns are filed, it is highly certain that some positions taken will be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, while others are subject to uncertainty about the merits of the position taken or the amount of the position that will be ultimately sustained. The benefit of a tax position is recognized in the financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions. Tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of the benefits associated with the tax positions taken that exceeds the amount measured as described above is reflected as a liability for unrecognized tax benefits in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets, along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination.

***Cash and Cash Equivalents***

We consider investments with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to cash to be cash equivalents. We have, from time to time, cash in the bank in excess of federally insured limits. Under our cash management system, checks issued but not yet presented to banks that would result in negative bank balances when presented are classified as a current liability in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets.

***Restricted Cash and Account Wagering Deposit Liabilities***

Restricted cash includes deposits collected from our TwinSpires' customers. Other amounts included in restricted cash represent amounts due to horsemen for purses, stakes and awards that are paid in accordance with the terms of our contractual agreements or statutory requirements.

***Allowance for Doubtful Accounts Receivable***

Upon our adoption of Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") of the Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses ("ASC 326") on January 1, 2020, we maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts for current expected credit losses on our financial assets measured at amortized cost which are primarily included in Accounts receivable, net in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company evaluates current expected credit losses on a collective (pool) basis when similar risk characteristics exist. Write-offs are recognized when the Company concludes that all or a portion of a financial asset is no longer collectible. Any subsequent recovery is recognized when it occurs.

***Internal Use Software***

Internal use software costs for our TwinSpires' segment software are capitalized in Property and equipment, net in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets, in accordance with accounting guidance governing computer software developed or obtained for internal use. Once the software is placed in operation, we amortize the capitalized software over the software's estimated economic useful life, which is generally three years. We capitalized internal use software of approximately $11.2 million in 2022, $10.7 million in 2021, and $10.5 million in 2020. We incurred amortization expense of approximately $10.7 million in 2022, $10.3 million in 2021, and $9.4 million in 2020, for projects which had been placed in service.

***Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities***

We adhere to a hierarchy for ranking the quality and reliability of the information used to determine fair values. Assets and liabilities that are carried at fair value are classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories: Level 1: Unadjusted quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; Level 2: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, unadjusted quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability; and Level 3: Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. We endeavor to utilize the best available information in measuring fair value. Financial assets and liabilities are classified based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

***Investments in and Advances to Unconsolidated Affiliates***

We have investments in unconsolidated affiliates accounted for under the equity method. Under the equity method, carrying value is adjusted for our share of the investees' income and losses, amortization of certain basis differences as well as capital contributions to and distributions from these companies. We use the cumulative earnings approach to present distributions received from equity method investees. Distributions in excess of equity method income are recognized as a return of investment and recorded as investing cash inflows in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. We classify income and losses as well as gains and impairments related to our investments in unconsolidated affiliates as a component of Other income (expense) in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss).

We evaluate our investments in unconsolidated affiliates for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the investment may have experienced an "other-than-temporary" decline in value. If such conditions exist, we compare the estimated fair value of the investment to the investment's carrying value to determine if an impairment is

------

Churchill Downs Incorporated

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

indicated and determine whether the impairment is "other-than-temporary" based on an assessment of all relevant factors, including consideration of our intent and ability to retain our investment until the recovery of the unrealized loss. We estimate fair value using a discounted cash flow analysis based on estimated future results of the investee.

***Business Combinations***

We account for acquisitions of businesses in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations. We initially allocate the purchase price of an acquisition to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values, with any excess of consideration transferred recorded as goodwill. The results of operations of acquisitions are included in the consolidated financial statements from their respective dates of acquisition. Costs incurred to complete the business combination are not considered part of consideration and are expensed as incurred. Refer to Note 3, Acquisitions, for further information.

***Leases***

We determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception and categorize as either operating or finance based on the criteria of ASC 842. An arrangement contains a lease when the arrangement conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset over the lease term. Operating and finance leases are included in Property and equipment, net; Accrued expense and Other current liabilities; and Other liabilities in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. We generally do not separate lease and non-lease components for our lease contracts. We do not apply the right-of-use assets ("ROUA") and leases liability recognition requirements to short-term leases.

Lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at the commencement date. These leases do not provide an implicit rate, so therefore we use our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of future lease payments. ROUAs are recognized at the lease commencement date at the value of the lease liability, adjusted for any lease payments made prior to commencement and exclude lease incentives and initial direct costs incurred. The lease terms include all non-cancelable periods and may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. Lease expense for minimum lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term for operating leases. Interest expense on the finance lease liabilities is recorded separately using the interest method.

We do not have any material leases where we are the lessor.

***Debt Issuance Costs and Loan Origination Fees***

Debt issuance costs and loan origination fees associated with our term debt, revolver, and notes payable are amortized as interest expense over the term of each respective financial instrument. Debt issuance costs and loan origination fees associated with our term debt and notes payable are presented as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the related liability. Debt issuance costs and loan origination fees associated with our revolver are presented as an asset.

***Casino and Pari-mutuel Taxes***

We recognize casino and pari-mutuel tax expense based on the statutory requirements of the federal, state, and local jurisdictions in which we conduct business. All of our casino taxes and the majority of our pari-mutuel taxes are gross receipts taxes levied on the gaming entity. We recognize these taxes as Live and Historical Racing, TwinSpires, Gaming, and All Other operating expenses in our Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss). In certain jurisdictions governing our pari-mutuel contracts with customers, there are specific pari-mutuel taxes that are assessed on winning wagers from our customers, which we collect and remit to the government. These taxes are presented on a net basis.

***Purse Expense***

We recognize purse expense based on the statutorily or contractually determined amount that is required to be paid out in the form of purses to the qualifying finishers of horse races run at our racetracks in the period in which wagering occurs. We incur a liability for all unpaid purses that will be paid out on a future live race event.

***Self-insurance Accruals***

We are self-insured up to certain limits for costs associated with general liability, workers' compensation and certain employee health coverage costs, and we purchase insurance for claims that exceed our self-insurance retention or deductible levels. We record self-insurance reserves that include accruals of estimated settlements for known claims ("Case Reserves"), as well as accruals of third-party actuarial estimates for claims incurred but not yet reported ("IBNR"). Case Reserves represent estimated liabilities for unpaid losses, based on a claims administrator's estimates of future payments on individual reported claims, including allocated loss adjustment expense, which generally include claims settlement costs such as legal fees. IBNR includes the provision for unreported claims, changes in case reserves and future payments on reopened claims.

Churchill Downs Incorporated

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Key variables and assumptions include, but are not limited to, loss development factors and trend factors such as changes in workers' compensation laws, medical care costs and wages. These loss development factors and trend factors are developed using our actual historical losses. It is possible that reasonable alternative selections would produce different reserve estimates.

***Advertising and Marketing***

We expense the costs of general advertising, marketing and associated promotional expenditures at the time the costs are incurred. We incurred advertising and marketing expense of approximately $52.9 million in 2022, $74.5 million in 2021, and $31.4 million in 2020 in our accompanying Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss).

***Stock-Based Compensation***

All stock-based payments to employees and directors, including grants of performance share units and restricted stock, are recognized as compensation expense over the service period based on the fair value on the date of grant. For awards that have a graded vesting schedule, we recognize expense on a straight-line basis for each separately vesting portion of the award. We recognize forfeitures of awards as incurred.

***Computation of Net Income per Common Share***

Net income per common share is presented for both basic earnings per common share ("Basic EPS") and diluted earnings per common share ("Diluted EPS"). Basic EPS is based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, excluding unvested stock awards, during the period plus vested common stock equivalents that have not yet been converted to common shares. Diluted EPS is based upon the weighted average number of shares used to calculate Basic EPS and potentially dilutive common shares outstanding during the period. Potentially dilutive common shares result from applying the treasury stock method to unvested stock awards.

***Common Stock Share Repurchases***

From time-to-time, we repurchase shares of our common stock under share repurchase programs and privately negotiated transactions authorized by our Board of Directors. Share repurchases constitute authorized but unissued shares under the Kentucky laws under which we are incorporated. Our common stock has no par or stated value. We record the full value of share repurchases, upon the trade date, against common stock on our Consolidated Balance Sheets except when to do so would result in a negative balance in such common stock account. In such instances, we record the cost of any further share repurchases as a reduction to retained earnings. Due to the large number of shares of our common stock repurchased over the past several years, our common stock balance will frequently be zero at the end of any given reporting period. Refer to Note 10, Shareholders' Equity, for additional information on our share repurchases.

***Insurance Recoveries***

The Company maintains insurance policies that provide coverage for property damages and business interruption. Losses due to physical damages are recognized during the accounting period in which the loss occurs, while the amount of monetary assets to be received from the insurance policy is recognized when receipt of insurance recoveries is probable. Losses, which are reduced by the related probable insurance recoveries, are recorded as operating expenses on the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss). Anticipated proceeds in excess of recognized losses would be considered a gain contingency and recognized when the contingency related to the insurance claim has been resolved.

***Recent Accounting Pronouncements - Adopted on January 1, 2021***

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes, which simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles in ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes. The amendments also clarify and amend existing guidance to improve consistent application of and simplify GAAP for other areas of Topic 740. This ASU was effective for public business entities for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2020. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on our business.

***Recent Accounting Pronouncements - effective in 2023 or thereafter***

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting, which provides optional expedients and exceptions to applying the guidance on contract modifications, hedge accounting, and other transactions, and to simplify the accounting for transitioning from the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") and other interbank offered rates to alternative reference rates. The guidance was effective upon issuance. In December 2022, the FASB deferred the date for which this guidance can be applied from December 31, 2022 to December 31, 2024. The use of LIBOR was phased out at the end of 2021, although the phase-out of U.S. dollar LIBOR for existing agreements has been delayed until June 2023. We continue to monitor developments related to the LIBOR transition and identification of an alternative, market-accepted rate.

**3. ACQUISITIONS**

***Chasers Poker Room***

On September 2, 2022, the Company completed the Chasers Transaction which was treated as an asset acquisition because substantially all the value of the gross assets acquired was concentrated in the gaming rights. The Company made an initial payment at closing and recorded a liability for the remaining payments due on a future date. In conjunction with the acquisition, the Company recorded an $82.2 million gaming rights intangible asset which represented its fair value at the date of acquisition.

The fair value of the gaming rights acquired in the Chasers Transaction was determined using the Greenfield Method, which is an income approach methodology that calculates the present value of the gaming rights intangible asset based on a projected cash flow stream. This method assumes that the gaming rights intangible asset provides the opportunity to develop a gaming or historical racing facility in a specified region, and that the present value of the projected cash flows is a result of the realization of advantages contained in these rights. Under this methodology, the acquirer is expected to absorb all start-up costs, as well as incur all expenses pertaining to the acquisition and/or the creation of all tangible and intangible assets. The estimated future revenue, future operating expenses, start-up costs, and discount rate were the primary inputs in the valuation. The gaming rights intangible asset was assigned an indefinite useful life based on the Company's expected use of the asset and determination that no legal, regulatory, contractual, competitive, economic, or other factors limit the useful life of the gaming rights.

***Ellis Park***

On September 26, 2022, the Company completed the Ellis Park Transaction for total consideration of $79.0 million in cash, plus $3.5 million in working capital and other preliminary purchase price adjustments. The fair values of the Ellis Park Transaction were based upon preliminary valuations. Estimates and assumptions used in such valuations are subject to change, which could be significant, within the measurement period up to one year from the acquisition date. The areas of the preliminary valuations that are not yet finalized relate to the amounts for income taxes, working capital adjustments and the final amount of residual goodwill. The Company expects to continue to obtain information to assist in determining fair values of net assets acquired at the acquisition date during the measurement period. The preliminary fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, net of cash acquired of $1.4 million, at the date of acquisition were as follows: property and equipment of $19.3 million, indefinite-lived gaming rights of $47.4 million, indefinite-lived trademark of $3.6 million, goodwill of $9.2 million, and net working capital of $1.6 million.

The Company has not included other disclosures regarding the Chasers or Ellis Park Transactions as they are immaterial to our business.

***P2E Transaction***

On November 1, 2022, the Company completed the acquisition of substantially all the assets of P2E for a preliminary purchase consideration of $2,835.9 million, net of cash acquired. The P2E assets acquired included Colonial Downs and six HRM entertainment venues in Virginia, del Lago in New York, and Hard Rock Sioux City in Iowa, as well as the development rights for Dumfries and Emporia HRM facilities in Virginia, up to five additional HRM entertainment venues in Virginia, and ONE Casino & Resort in Virginia in collaboration with Urban One.

The following table summarizes the preliminary fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, net of cash acquired of $126.4 million, as of November 1, 2022:

| Gaming rights | $1865.6 |

| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Total intangible assets | $1941.5 |

---

Current assets and current liabilities were valued at the existing carrying values, as these items are short term in nature and represent management's estimated fair value of the respective items at November 1, 2022.

The property and equipment acquired primarily relates to land, buildings, equipment, and furniture and fixtures. The fair value of the land was determined using the market approach and the fair values of the remaining property and equipment were primarily determined using the cost replacement method which is based on replacement or reproduction costs of the assets.

The fair value of the gaming rights was determined using the Greenfield Method, which is an income approach methodology that calculates the present value of the overall business enterprise based on a projected cash flow stream. This method assumes that the gaming rights intangible assets provide the opportunity to develop a casino or historical racing facility in a specified region, and that the present value of the projected cash flows are a result of the realization of advantages contained in these rights. Under this methodology, the acquirer is expected to absorb all start-up costs, as well as incur all expenses pertaining to the acquisition and/or the creation of all tangible and intangible assets. The estimated future revenue and operating expenses, start-up costs, and discount rates were the primary assumptions and estimates in the valuation of the gaming rights. The gaming rights intangible assets were assigned an indefinite useful life based on the Company's expected use of the assets and determination that no legal, regulatory, contractual, competitive, economic, or other factors limit the useful life of the gaming rights.

The trademark intangible assets were valued using the relief-from-royalty method of the income approach, which estimates the fair value of the intangible assets by discounting the fair value of the hypothetical royalty payments a market participant would be willing to pay to enjoy the benefits of the assets. The estimated future revenue, royalty rates, and discount rates were the primary assumptions and estimates in the valuation of the trademarks. The trademarks were assigned an indefinite useful life based on the Company's intention to keep the trademarks for an indefinite period of time.

Goodwill of $347.8 million was recognized due to the expected contribution of P2E to the Company's overall business strategy. The goodwill was assigned to the Gaming segment in the amount of $129.1 million and to the Live and Historical Racing segment in the amount of $218.7 million and is mostly deductible for tax purposes.

Estimates and assumptions used in such valuations are subject to change, which could be significant, within the measurement period up to one year from the acquisition date. The preliminary purchase consideration is subject to adjustment upon finalization of customary post-closing adjustments related to working capital. The primary areas of the preliminary valuation that are not yet finalized relate to the fair values of amounts for income taxes, property and equipment, and intangible assets, adjustments to working capital, and the final amount of residual goodwill. The Company expects to continue to obtain information to assist in determining fair values of net assets acquired at the acquisition date during the measurement period.

For the period November 1, 2022 through December 31, 2022, the operations of the properties acquired as part of the P2E Transaction, including the associated retail sportsbooks, generated net revenue of $109.7 million and net income of $42.9 million.

The following unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information for the Company has been prepared assuming the P2E Transaction had occurred as of January 1, 2021. The unaudited pro forma financial information is not necessarily indicative of either future results of operations or results of operations that might have been achieved had the acquisition been consummated as of January 1, 2021.

**4. DISPOSITIONS, ASSETS HELD FOR SALE & DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS**

***Calder Land Sale***

On June 17, 2022, the Company closed on the sale of 115.7 acres of land near Calder Casino ("Calder") for $291.0 million or approximately $2.5 million per acre to Link Logistics Real Estate, a Blackstone portfolio company. The Company received cash proceeds of $279.0 million which was net of $12.0 million of transaction costs. We recognized a gain of $274.6 million on the sale of the land, which is included in Other income in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss). The gain consisted of cash proceeds of $279.0 million offset by the carrying value of the assets sold of $4.4 million. The proceeds were held by a qualifying intermediary in an interest-bearing account until they could be utilized in a like-kind exchange.

The Company utilized proceeds and interest earned from the sale to purchase property as part of the P2E Transaction and to invest in other replacement properties that qualify as Internal Revenue Code §1031 transactions to defer the federal income tax on the gain on the Calder land sale. The Company completed one reverse like-kind exchange in June 2022 involving our $9.9 million investment in real property for the Derby City Gaming Downtown facility in Louisville, Kentucky, and one reverse like-kind exchange in December 2022 involving our $24.9 million investment in real property for the Terre Haute Casino Resort in Vigo County, Indiana ("Terre Haute"). The remaining proceeds were used to execute a forward like-kind exchange with the P2E Transaction to purchase real property associated with del Lago in November 2022.

As of December 31, 2022, the Company recorded a $76.0 million deferred tax liability on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

As of December 31, 2021, the assets sold as part of the Calder land sale were classified as held for sale on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Calder's operations and assets are included in the Gaming segment in our consolidated results.

***Assets Held for Sale***

On September 29, 2021, the Company announced an agreement to sell the 326-acre property in Arlington Heights, Illinois (the "Arlington Property"), to the Chicago Bears for $197.2 million.

The Company has classified certain assets of Arlington International Racecourse ("Arlington") totaling $82.0 million and $81.5 million as held for sale as of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. Arlington's operations and assets are included in All Other in our consolidated results.

The Company executed a forward like-kind exchange transaction by purchasing certain property as part of the P2E Transaction for $197.2 million. An exchange accommodation titleholder ("EAT"), a type of variable interest entity, was used to facilitate this reverse like-kind exchange. The Company determined that it is the primary beneficiary of the EAT, thus the property held by the EAT has been consolidated and recorded in Property and equipment, net on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. On February 15, 2023, the Company closed on the sale and fully realized all the planned tax savings.

**8. ASSET IMPAIRMENTS**

*Presque Isle Impairment 2022*

During the quarter ended December 31, 2022, the Company evaluated whether it was more likely than not that any of the Company's intangible assets, goodwill, or property and equipment, were impaired. The Company concluded that a trigger event for impairment testing occurred related to the Presque Isle Downs and Casino ("Presque Isle") gaming rights, trademark, and the reporting unit's goodwill due to the impact and uncertainty of current negative economic trends. Factors considered in this evaluation included, among other things, the amount of the fair value over carrying value from the annual impairment testing performed as of April 1, 2022, changes in carrying values, changes in discount rates, and the impact of negative economic trends on cash flows.

Based on the 2022 trigger event, the Company updated the discount rate to reflect the increased uncertainty of the cash flows and updated the projected cash flow stream. As a result, the Company recognized an impairment of $33.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2022 for the Presque Isle gaming rights and trademark.

The fair value of the Presque Isle reporting unit's goodwill was determined under the market and income valuation approaches using inputs primarily related to discounted projected cash flows and price multiples of publicly traded comparable companies.

In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 350, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other, the Company performed the impairment testing of the Presque Isle gaming rights and trademark prior to testing Presque Isle goodwill. Based on the trigger event, the Company updated the discount rate to reflect the increased uncertainty of the cash flows and updated the project cash flow stream. As a result, the Company did not recognize an impairment for Presque Isle goodwill in the fourth quarter of 2022 because the fair value exceeded the carrying value.

*Other Impairments*

On February 24, 2022, the Company announced plans to exit the direct online Sports and Casino business. The Company will maintain its retail Sports operations and pursue monetization of its online market access licenses. During the quarter ended March 31, 2022, the Company evaluated whether this planned exit would indicate it is more likely than not that any of the Company's intangible assets, long-lived assets, current assets or property and equipment, were impaired. Based on the Company's evaluation, the Company concluded that a trigger event for impairment testing occurred related to certain TwinSpires assets. As a result, the Company recorded a $4.9 million non-cash impairment charge related to certain assets in the TwinSpires segment.

During the quarter ended December 31, 2021, the Company recorded a $4.1 million non-cash impairment charge related to certain assets in the TwinSpires segment due to changes in expectations of future realization of certain third-party market access royalty prepayments related to our New Jersey sports betting and iGaming that resulted in projected future cash flows being less than carrying value in the fourth quarter of 2021.

During the quarter ended June 30, 2021, the Company recorded an $11.2 million non-cash impairment charge related to certain assets at Churchill Downs Racetrack included in our Live and Historical Racing segment. The impairment was due to a change in the Churchill Downs Racetrack capital plans and the Company's planned use of these assets.

*Presque Isle Impairment 2020*

During the quarter ended March 31, 2020, the Company evaluated whether events or circumstances changed that would indicate it is more likely than not that any of the Company's intangible assets, goodwill, or property and equipment, were impaired. The Company concluded that a trigger event for impairment testing occurred related to the Presque Isle gaming rights, trademark, and the reporting unit's goodwill due to the impact and uncertainty of the COVID-19 global pandemic.

The initial fair value of Presque Isle gaming rights in the first quarter of 2019 was determined using the Greenfield Method, which is an income approach methodology that calculates the present value based on a projected cash flow stream. This method assumes that the Presque Isle gaming rights provide the opportunity to develop a casino and online wagering platform in a specified region, and that the present value of the projected cash flows are a result of the realization of advantages contained in these rights. Under this methodology, the acquirer is expected to absorb all start-up costs, as well as incur all expenses pertaining to the acquisition and / or the creation of all tangible and intangible assets. The estimated future revenue, operating expenses, start-up costs, and discount rate were the primary inputs in the valuation.

Based on the trigger event, the Company updated the discount rate to reflect the increased uncertainty of the cash flows and updated the projected cash flow stream. As a result, the Company recognized an impairment of $15.0 million in first quarter of 2020 for the Presque Isle gaming rights.

The CARES Act provided, among other things, that any net operating loss arising in a tax year beginning in 2018, 2019 or 2020 may be carried back five years or carried forward indefinitely, offsetting up to 100% of taxable income in tax years beginning before 2021. The Company filed a refund claim in 2021 from carrying back our 2020 net operating loss to a year before the statutory corporate tax rate was reduced from 35% to 21% by the Tax Act. Due to the higher statutory rate applied to this net operating loss, the Company recognized an income tax benefit of $13.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2020.

As of December 31, 2022, we had U.S. state and foreign net operating losses with tax values of $7.7 million and $0.5 million, respectively. We have recorded a valuation allowance of $5.7 million due to the fact that it is unlikely that we will generate income in certain state and foreign jurisdictions which is necessary to utilize the deferred tax assets. We also had U.S. state tax credits with a tax value of $1.3 million that do not expire which we expect to fully utilize.

The Internal Revenue Service has completed audits through 2012. Tax years 2019 and after are open to examination. Tax year 2015 and 2018 are open to examination as a result of the Company's claim for refund of 2015 and 2018 tax from carrying back its 2020 net operating loss and 2021 capital loss pursuant to the CARES Act.

As of December 31, 2022, we had approximately $6.4 million of total gross unrecognized tax benefits, excluding interest of $0.5 million. If the total gross unrecognized tax benefits were recognized, there would be a $5.8 million effect to the annual effective tax rate. We anticipate a decrease in our unrecognized tax positions of approximately $2.8 million during the next twelve months primarily due to expected settlements with tax authorities and the expiration of statutes of limitation.

A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of unrecognized tax benefits is as follows:

**10. SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY**

***Stock Repurchase Programs***

On October 30, 2018, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a common stock repurchase program of up to $300.0 million ("2018 Stock Repurchase Program"). The 2018 Stock Repurchase Program was in effect until September 29, 2021 and had unused authorization of $97.9 million.

On September 29, 2021, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a common stock repurchase program of up to $500.0 million ("2021 Stock Repurchase Program"). The 2021 Stock Repurchase Program includes and is not in addition to any unspent amount remaining under the prior 2018 Stock Purchase Program authorization. Repurchases may be made at management's discretion from time to time on the open market (either with or without a 10b5-1 plan) or through privately negotiated transactions. The repurchase program has no time limit and may be suspended or discontinued at any time. We had $270.2 million of repurchase authority remaining under this program on December 31, 2022.

We repurchased the following shares under the 2018 and 2021 Stock Repurchase Programs:

***The Duchossois Group ("TDG") Share Repurchase***

On February 1, 2021, the Company entered into an agreement (the "Stock Repurchase Agreement") with an affiliate of TDG to repurchase 1,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock for $193.94 per share in a privately negotiated transaction for an aggregate purchase price of $193.9 million. The repurchase of shares of common stock from TDG pursuant to the Stock Repurchase Agreement was approved by the Company's Board of Directors separately from, and did not reduce the authorized amount remaining under, the existing common stock repurchase program. The Company repurchased the shares using available cash and borrowings under the Revolver (as defined in Note 12, Debt).

**11. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION PLANS**

Our total compensation expense, which includes expense related to restricted stock awards, restricted stock unit awards, performance share unit awards, and stock options associated with our employee stock purchase plan, was $31.8 million in 2022, $27.8 million in 2021, and $23.7 million in 2020. We recorded a tax benefit related to stock-based compensation expense of $1.6 million in 2022, $1.5 million in 2021, and $1.9 million in 2020. Our stock-based employee compensation plans are described below.

***2016 Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan***

We have a stock-based employee compensation plan with awards outstanding under the Churchill Downs Incorporated 2016 Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan (the "2016 Plan") and Executive Long-Term Incentive Compensation Plan, which was adopted pursuant to the 2016 Plan. The 2016 Plan is intended to advance our long-term success by encouraging stock ownership among key employees and the Board of Directors. Awards may be in the form of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock awards ("RSA"), restricted stock units ("RSU"), performance share units ("PSU"), performance units, or performance cash. The 2016 Plan has a minimum vesting period of one year for awards granted.

***Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units, and Performance Share Units***

The 2016 Plan permits the award of RSAs, RSUs, or PSUs to directors and key employees responsible for the management, growth and protection of our business. The fair value of RSAs and RSUs that vest solely based on continued service under the Plan is determined by the product of the number of shares granted and the grant date market price of our common stock.

RSAs and RSUs granted to employees under the 2016 Plan generally vest either in full upon three years from the date of grant or on a pro rata basis over a three-year term. RSAs are legally issued common stock at the time of grant, with certain restrictions placed on them. RSUs granted to employees are converted into shares of our common stock at vesting. The RSUs

granted to directors under the 2016 Plan generally vests in full upon one year from the date of grant. RSUs granted to directors are converted into shares of our common stock at the time of the director's retirement.

In 2020, 2021, and 2022, the Company granted three-year performance and total shareholder return ("TSR") PSU awards (the "PSU Awards") to certain named executive officers ("NEOs"). The two performance criteria for the PSU Awards are: (1) a cumulative Adjusted EBITDA target that was set at the beginning of the plan performance period for the three-year period; and (2) a cash flow metric that is the aggregate of the cash flow targets for the three individual years that is set annually at the beginning of each year. The cash flow metric is defined as cash flow from operating activities and discontinued operations excluding the change in restricted cash, plus distributions of capital from equity investments less capital maintenance expenditures. The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the "Compensation Committee") can make adjustments as it may deem appropriate to these metrics. Measurement against these criteria will be determined against a payout curve which provides up to 200% of performance share units based on the original award.

The PSU Awards may be adjusted based on the Company's TSR performance relative to the TSR performance during the performance period of the companies remaining in the Russell 2000 index and Russell 1000 index beginning with 2022 grants at the end of the performance period as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.The PSU Awards will increase by 25% if the Company's TSR is in the top quartile;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.The PSU Awards will decrease by 25% if the Company's TSR is in the bottom quartile; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.The PSU Awards will not change if the Company's TSR is in the middle two quartiles.

The maximum number of PSU Awards, including the impact of the TSR performance, that can be earned for a performance period is 250% of the original award.

On February 12, 2020, the Compensation Committee offered, and the NEOs accepted, to settle the 2017 PSU Awards in cash.

In October 2018, the Company granted a special equity award to two NEOs ("7-Year Grant") consisting of PSU Awards that may be adjusted up to 200% based on the Company's relative TSR performance versus the Russell 2000 over a three-year period ending October 29, 2021, and service-based RSU awards, both of which vest in 25% annual increments over four years beginning on the fourth anniversary of the grant date, totaling seven years to be fully vested. The performance period ended on October 29, 2021, and the TSR performance was 200%.

The total compensation cost recognized for PSU Awards is determined using the Monte Carlo valuation methodology, which factors in the value of the TSR when determining the grant date fair value of the award. Compensation cost for the PSU Awards is recognized during the three-year performance and service period based on the probable achievement of the two performance criteria, with the exception of the 7-Year Grant, which compensation cost is recognized during the seven-year service period. All PSUs awards are converted into shares of our common stock at the time the award value is finalized.

A summary of the 2022 RSUs, and PSUs granted to certain NEOs, employees, and the Board of Directors is presented below (shares/units in thousands):

|:---|:---|:---|:---|

***Credit Agreement***

On December 27, 2017, we entered into a senior secured credit agreement ("2017 Credit Agreement") with a syndicate of lenders. The 2017 Credit Agreement provided for a $700.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility due 2024 (the "Revolver") and a $400.0 million senior secured term loan B due 2024 (the "Term Loan B"). Included in the maximum borrowing of $700.0 million under the Revolver was a letter of credit sub facility not to exceed $50.0 million and a swing line commitment up to a maximum principal amount of $50.0 million.

The Term Loan B bears interest at LIBOR plus 200 basis points and requires quarterly payments of 0.25% of the original $400.0 million balance, or $1.0 million per quarter. The Term Loan B may be subject to additional mandatory prepayment from excess cash flow on an annual basis per the provisions of the 2017 Credit Agreement. The Company is required to pay a commitment fee on the unused portion of the Revolver as determined by a pricing grid based on the consolidated total net secured leverage ratio of the Company. For the period ended December 31, 2022, the Company's commitment fee rate was 0.175%.

On April 28, 2020, the Company entered into an amendment to the 2017 Credit Agreement (as amended, the "Credit Agreement"), which provided for a financial covenant relief period through the date on which the Company delivered the Company's quarterly financial statements and compliance certificate for the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2021, subject to certain exceptions (the "Financial Covenant Relief Period"). On February 1, 2021, the Company entered into an amendment to increase the amount of certain otherwise restricted payments permitted from $26.0 million to $226.0 million during the Financial Covenant Relief Period.

On March 17, 2021, the Company entered into the Incremental Joinder Agreement No. 1 (the "Joinder") to its Credit Agreement which provided $300.0 million in New Term Loan Commitments ("Term Loan B-1") as a new tranche of term loans under the existing Credit Agreement (as conformed to recognize the new loan) and carries a maturity date of March 17, 2028.

------

Churchill Downs Incorporated

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

The Company capitalized $3.5 million of debt issuance costs associated with the Joinder which are being amortized as interest expense over the 7-year term of the Term Loan B-1.

The Term Loan B-1 bears interest at LIBOR plus 200 basis points and requires quarterly payments of 0.25% of the original $300.0 million balance. The Term Loan B-1 may be subject to additional mandatory prepayment from excess cash flow on an annual basis per the provisions of the Credit Agreement.

On April 13, 2022, the Company amended the Credit Agreement to extend the maturity date of its existing Revolver to April 13, 2027, to increase the commitments under the existing Revolver from $700.0 million to $1.2 billion, and to increase the swing line commitment from $50.0 million to $100.0 million. The amendment also provides for a senior secured Delayed Draw Term Loan A due April 13, 2027 in the amount of $800.0 million, which was drawn on November 1, 2022 as part of the financing for the P2E Transaction. Refer to Note 3, Acquisitions for more information regarding the P2E Transaction. The Company capitalized $3.2 million of debt issuance costs associated with the Revolver commitment increase and $6.4 million of debt issuance costs associated with the Delayed Draw Term Loan A which are being amortized as interest expense over the 5-year term.

The Revolver and Delayed Draw Term Loan A bear interest at the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") plus 10 basis points, plus a variable applicable margin which is determined by the Company's net leverage ratio. As of December 31, 2022, that applicable margin was 125 basis points which was based on the pricing grid in the Credit Agreement. During 2022, we have borrowed $664.1 million on our Revolver which provided the Company with financing for the Chasers, Ellis Park, and P2E Transactions. Refer to Note 3, Acquisitions for more regarding the Chasers, Ellis Park and P2E Transactions. The Company had $524.8 million available borrowing capacity, after consideration of $11.1 million in outstanding letters of credit, under the Revolver as of December 31, 2022.

The phase-out of LIBOR in existing debt agreements is set for June 30, 2023. The Credit Agreement includes a general process for establishing an alternative reference rate to the extent LIBOR is phased out. The Company is in the process of transitioning its financing from LIBOR to alternative reference rates. These transition activities are not expected to have a material impact on the Company's financial statements.

The Credit Agreement is collateralized by substantially all the wholly-owned assets of the Company. The Credit Agreement contains certain customary affirmative and negative covenants, which include limitations on liens, investments, indebtedness, dispositions, mergers and acquisitions, the making of restricted payments, changes in the nature of business, changes in fiscal year, and transactions with affiliates. The Credit Agreement also contains financial covenants providing for the maintenance of a maximum consolidated secured net leverage ratio and maintenance of a minimum consolidated interest coverage ratio.

***2027 Senior Notes***

On March 25, 2019, we completed an offering of $600.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 5.50% Senior Unsecured Notes that mature on April 1, 2027 (the "2027 Senior Notes") in a private offering to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A that is exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and to certain non-U.S. persons in accordance with Regulation S under the Securities Act. The 2027 Senior Notes were issued at par, with interest payable on April 1<sup>st</sup> and October 1<sup>st</sup> of each year, commencing on October 1, 2019. The Company used the net proceeds from the offering to repay the then-outstanding balance on the Revolver portion of our Credit Agreement. In connection with the offering, we capitalized $8.9 million of debt issuance costs which are being amortized as interest expense over the term of the 2027 Senior Notes.

The 2027 Senior Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture, dated March 25, 2019 (the "2027 Indenture"), among the Company, certain subsidiaries of the Company as guarantors (the "2027 Guarantors"), and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee. The Company may redeem some or all of the 2027 Senior Notes at any time at redemption prices set forth in the 2027 Indenture. The terms of the 2027 Indenture, among other things, limit the ability of the Company to: (i) incur additional debt and issue preferred stock, (ii) pay dividends or make other restricted payments, (iii) make certain investments, (iv) create liens, (v) allow restrictions on the ability of certain of our subsidiaries to pay dividends or make other payments, (vi) sell assets, (vii) merge or consolidate with other entities, and (viii) enter into transactions with affiliates.

In connection with the issuance of the 2027 Senior Notes, the Company and the 2027 Guarantors entered into a Registration Rights Agreement to register any 2027 Senior Notes under the Securities Act for resale that are not freely tradable 366 days from March 25, 2019.

***2028 Senior Notes***

On December 27, 2017, we completed an offering of $500.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 4.75% Senior Unsecured Notes that mature on January 15, 2028 (the "Existing 2028 Notes") in a private offering to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A that is exempt from registration under the Securities Act, and to certain non-U.S. persons in accordance with Regulation S under the Securities Act. The Existing 2028 Notes were issued at par, with interest payable on January 15<sup>th</sup> and July 15<sup>th</sup> of each year, commencing on July 15, 2018. The Company used the net proceeds from the offering to repay a portion of our $600.0 million 5.375% Senior Unsecured Notes due in 2021. In connection with the offering, we capitalized $7.7 million of debt issuance costs which are being amortized as interest expense over the term of the Existing 2028 Notes.

On March 17, 2021, the Company completed an offering of $200.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 4.75% Senior Unsecured Notes that mature on January 15, 2028 (the "Additional 2028 Notes") in a private offering to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A that is exempt from registration under the Securities Act, and to certain non-U.S. persons in accordance with Regulation S under the Securities Act. The Additional 2028 Notes were offered under the indenture dated as of December 27, 2017, governing the $500.0 million aggregate principal amount of 4.75% Senior Unsecured Notes due 2028 and form a part of the same series for purposes of the indenture. In connection with the offering, we capitalized $3.4 million of debt issuance costs which are being amortized as interest expense over the term of the Additional 2028 Notes. Upon completion of this offering, the aggregate principal amount outstanding of the Existing 2028 Notes, together with the Additional 2028 Notes (collectively, the "2028 Senior Notes"), is $700.0 million.

The Additional 2028 Notes were issued at 103.25% of the principal amount, plus interest deemed to have accrued from January 15, 2021, with interest payable on January 15<sup>th</sup> and July 15<sup>th</sup> of each year, commencing on July 15, 2021. The 2028 Senior Notes will vote as one class under the indenture governing the 2028 Senior Notes. The 3.25% premium is being amortized through interest expense, net over the term of the Additional 2028 Notes.

The Company used the net proceeds from the Additional 2028 Notes and the Term Loan B-1: (i) to repay indebtedness outstanding under our Revolver, (ii) to fund related transaction fees and expenses, and (iii) for working capital and other general corporate purposes.

The 2028 Senior Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture, dated December 27, 2017 (the "2028 Indenture"), among the Company, certain subsidiaries of the Company as guarantors (the "2028 Guarantors"), and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee. The Company may redeem some or all the 2028 Senior Notes at redemption prices set forth in the 2028 Indenture. The terms of the 2028 Indenture, among other things, limit the ability of the Company to: (i) incur additional debt and issue preferred stock, (ii) pay dividends or make other restricted payments, (iii) make certain investments, (iv) create liens, (v) allow restrictions on the ability of certain of our subsidiaries to pay dividends or make other payments, (vi) sell assets, (vii) merge or consolidate with other entities, and (viii) enter into transactions with affiliates.

In connection with the issuance of the Additional 2028 Notes, the Company and the 2028 Guarantors entered into a Registration Rights Agreement to register any 2028 Senior Notes under the Securities Act for resale that are not freely tradable 366 days from March 17, 2021.

***2030 Senior Notes***

On April 13, 2022, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company completed an offering of $1.2 billion in aggregate principal amount of 5.75% Senior Unsecured Notes that mature on April 13, 2030 (the "2030 Senior Notes") in a private offering to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A that was exempt from registration under the Securities Act, and to certain non-U.S. persons in accordance with Regulation S under the Securities Act. The offering of the 2030 Senior Notes was part of the financing utilized for the P2E Transaction. In connection with the offering, we capitalized $18.3 million of debt issuance costs which are being amortized as interest expense over the term of the 2030 Senior Notes. The Company held the net proceeds of this transaction of $1.2 billion in escrow until the proceeds were utilized to complete the P2E Transaction on November 1, 2022, at which time CDI assumed the obligation and became the Issuer.

The 2030 Senior Notes were issued at 100% of the principal amount, plus interest deemed to have accrued from April 13, 2022, with interest payable in arrears on April 1<sup>st</sup> and October 1<sup>st</sup> of each year, commencing on October 1, 2022. The 2030 Senior Notes will vote as one class under the indenture governing the 2030 Senior Notes.

The Issuer may redeem some of or all the 2030 Senior Notes at any time prior to April 1, 2025, at redemption prices set forth in the 2030 Offering Memorandum.

**13. REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS**

***Performance Obligations***

As of December 31, 2022, our Live and Historical Racing segment had remaining performance obligations on contracts with a duration greater than one year relating to television rights, sponsorships, personal seat licenses, and admissions, with an aggregate transaction price of $154.4 million. The revenue we expect to recognize on these remaining performance obligations is $46.0 million in 2023, $39.6 million in 2024, $30.5 million in 2025, and the remainder thereafter.

As of December 31, 2022, our remaining performance obligations on contracts with a duration greater than one year in segments other than Live and Historical Racing were not material.

***Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities***

Contract assets were not material as of December 31, 2022 and 2021.

Contract liabilities were $58.7 million as of December 31, 2022 and $64.9 million as of December 31, 2021. Contract liabilities are included in current deferred revenue, non-current deferred revenue, and accrued expense and other current liabilities in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. Contract liabilities primarily relate to our Live and Historical Racing segment. The decrease in contract liabilities from December 31, 2021 to December 31, 2022 was due to the recognition of revenue for fulfilled performance obligations. We recognized $49.9 million of revenue during the year ended December 31, 2022 that was included in the contract liabilities balance on December 31, 2021. We recognized $33.0 million of revenue during the year ended December 31, 2021 that was included in the contract liabilities balance on December 31, 2020.

***Disaggregation of Revenue***

The Company has included its disaggregated revenue disclosures as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• For the Live and Historical Racing segment, revenue is disaggregated between Churchill Downs Racetrack and historical racing properties given that our racing facilities revenues primarily revolve around live racing events while our historical racing properties revenues primarily revolve around historical racing. This segment is also disaggregated by location given the geographic economic factors that affect the revenue of service offerings. Within the Live and Historical racing segment, revenue is further disaggregated between live and simulcast racing, historical racing, racing event-related services, and other services.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• For the TwinSpires segment, revenue is disaggregated between live and simulcast racing, gaming, and other services.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• For the Gaming segment, revenue is disaggregated by location given the geographic economic factors that affect the revenue of Gaming service offerings. Within the Gaming segment, revenue is further disaggregated between live and simulcast racing, racing event-related services, gaming, and other services.

We believe that these disclosures depict how the amount, nature, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows are affected by economic factors. The tables below present net revenue from external customers and intercompany revenue from each of our segments:

**15. INVESTMENTS IN AND ADVANCES TO UNCONSOLIDATED AFFILIATES** 

Investments in and advances to unconsolidated affiliates as of December 31, 2022 and 2021 primarily consisted of a 61.3% interest in Midwest Gaming Holdings, LLC ("Midwest Gaming"), the parent company of Rivers Casino Des Plaines ("Rivers Des Plaines"), a 50% interest in Miami Valley Gaming ("MVG"), and other immaterial joint ventures.

***Rivers Des Plaines***

On March 5, 2019, the Company completed the acquisition of certain ownership interests of Midwest Gaming, the parent company of Rivers Des Plaines to acquire approximately 42% of Midwest Gaming from affiliates and co-investors of Clairvest Group Inc. ("Clairvest") and members of High Plaines Gaming, LLC ("High Plaines"), an affiliate of Rush Street Gaming, LLC and Casino Investors, LLC ("Casino Investors") for cash consideration of approximately $406.6 million and $3.5 million of certain transaction costs and working capital adjustments (the "Sale Transaction"). Following the closing of the Sale Transaction, the parties completed a recapitalization transaction on March 6, 2019 (the "Recapitalization"), pursuant to which Midwest Gaming used approximately $300.0 million in proceeds from amended and extended credit facilities to redeem, on a pro rata basis, additional Midwest Gaming units held by High Plaines and Casino Investors. As a result of the Recapitalization, the Company's ownership of Midwest Gaming increased to 61.3%. High Plaines retained ownership of 36.0% of Midwest Gaming and Casino Investors retained ownership of 2.7% of Midwest Gaming.

We also recognized a $103.2 million deferred tax liability and a corresponding increase in our investment in unconsolidated affiliates related to an entity we acquired in conjunction with our acquisition of the Clairvest ownership stake in Midwest Gaming.

A new limited liability company agreement was entered into by the members of Midwest Gaming as a result of the change in ownership structure. Under the new limited liability company agreement, both the Company and High Plaines have participating rights over Midwest Gaming, and both must consent to Midwest Gaming's operating, investing and financing decisions. As a result, we account for Midwest Gaming using the equity method.

Churchill Downs Incorporated

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

The Company's investment in Midwest Gaming is presented at our initial cost of investment plus the Company's accumulated proportional share of income or loss, including depreciation/accretion of the difference in the historical basis of the Company's contribution, less any distributions it has received. Following the Sale Transaction and Recapitalization, the carrying value of the Company's investment in Midwest Gaming was $835.0 million higher than the Company's underlying equity in the net assets of Midwest Gaming. This equity method basis difference was comprised of $853.7 million related to goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets, $(13.7) million related to non-depreciable land, $(9.5) million related to buildings that will be accreted into income over a weighted average useful life of 35.3 years, and $4.5 million related to personal property that will be depreciated over a weighted average useful life of 3.7 years. As of December 31, 2022, the net aggregate basis difference between the Company's investment in Midwest Gaming and the amounts of the underlying equity in net assets was $835.0 million.

Our investment in Rivers Des Plaines was $544.9 million as of December 31, 2022 and $554.8 million as of December 31, 2021. The Company received distributions from Rivers Des Plaines of $123.8 million in 2022, $67.2 million in 2021 and $10.7 million in 2020.

***Miami Valley Gaming***

Delaware North Companies Gaming & Entertainment Inc. ("DNC") owns the remaining 50% interest in MVG. Since both we and DNC have participating rights over MVG, and both must consent to MVG's operating, investing and financing decisions, we account for MVG using the equity method.

Our investment in MVG was $114.4 million as of December 31, 2022 and $108.7 million as of December 31, 2021. The Company received distributions from MVG of $33.0 million in 2022, $42.0 million in 2021 and $20.0 million in 2020.

**17. BOARD OF DIRECTOR AND EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS**

***Board of Directors and Officers Retirement Plan***

Under the 2005 Deferred Compensation Plan (the "Deferred Plan"), members of our Board of Directors may elect to invest the deferred director fee compensation into our common stock within the Deferred Plan. Investments in our common stock are credited as hypothetical shares of common stock based on the market price of the stock at the time the compensation was earned. Upon the end of the director's service, common stock shares are issued to the director.

Prior to December 13, 2019, we provided eligible executives the opportunity to defer the receipt of base and bonus compensation to a future date and included a Company matching contribution on base compensation with certain limits through the Deferred Plan. On December 13, 2019, the Compensation Committee elected to freeze the Deferred Plan for eligible executives after the 2019 plan year.

On December 13, 2019, the Compensation Committee adopted the Churchill Downs Incorporated Restricted Stock Unit Deferral Plan, effective January 1, 2020 (the "RSU Deferral Plan"). Under the RSU Deferral Plan, certain individual employees who are management or highly compensated employees of the Company may elect to defer settlement of RSUs granted pursuant to the 2016 Plan.

***Other Retirement Plans***

We have a profit-sharing plan for all employees with three months or more of service who are not otherwise participating in an associated profit-sharing plan. We match contributions made by employees up to 3% of the employee's annual compensation and match at 50% any contributions made by the employee up to an additional 2% of compensation with certain limits. We may also contribute a discretionary amount determined annually by the Board of Directors as well as a year-end discretionary match not to exceed 4% of compensation. Our cash contribution to the plan was $4.3 million in 2022, $4.1 million in 2021, and $3.7 million in 2020.

**18. FAIR VALUE OF ASSETS AND LIABILITIES**

We endeavor to utilize the best available information in measuring fair value. Financial assets and liabilities are classified based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The following methods and assumptions are used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate:

------

Churchill Downs Incorporated

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

***Restricted Cash***

Our restricted cash accounts that are held in interest-bearing accounts qualify for Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy, which includes unadjusted quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets.

***Debt***

The fair value of the Company's Senior Secured Term Loan B, Term Loan B-1, Term Loan A and Revolver under the Credit Agreement approximate the gross carrying value of the variable rate debt and as such are Level 2 measurements. The fair value of the Company's 2030 Senior Notes, 2028 Senior Notes and 2027 Senior Notes are estimated based on unadjusted quoted prices for identical or similar liabilities in markets that are not active and as such are Level 2 measurements.

The carrying amounts and estimated fair values by input level of the Company's financial instruments are as follows:

**19. CONTINGENCIES**

We are involved in litigation arising in the ordinary course of conducting business. We carry insurance for workers' compensation claims from our employees and general liability for claims from independent contractors, customers and guests. We are self-insured up to an aggregate stop loss for our general liability and workers' compensation coverages.

We review all litigation on an ongoing basis when making accrual and disclosure decisions. For certain legal proceedings, we cannot reasonably estimate losses or a range of loss, if any, particularly for proceedings that are in the early stages of development or where the plaintiffs seek indeterminate damages. Various factors, including but not limited to, the outcome of potentially lengthy discovery and the resolution of important factual questions, may need to be determined before probability can be established or before a loss or range of loss can be reasonably estimated. In accordance with current accounting standards for loss contingencies and based upon information currently known to us, we establish reserves for litigation when it is probable that a loss associated with a claim or proceeding has been incurred and the amount of the loss or range of loss can be reasonably estimated. When no amount within the range of loss is a better estimate than any other amount, we accrue the minimum amount of the estimable loss. To the extent that such litigation against us may have an exposure to a loss in excess of

------

Churchill Downs Incorporated

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

the amount we have accrued, we believe that such excess would not be material to our consolidated financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. Legal fees are expensed as incurred.

If the loss contingency in question is not both probable and reasonably estimable, we do not establish an accrual and the matter will continue to be monitored for any developments that would make the loss contingency both probable and reasonably estimable. In the event that a legal proceeding results in a substantial judgment against, or settlement by us, there can be no assurance that any resulting liability or financial commitment would not have a material adverse impact on our business.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Eliminations include the elimination of intersegment transactions. We utilize non-GAAP measures, including EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) and Adjusted EBITDA. Our chief operating decision maker utilizes Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate segment performance, develop strategy and allocate resources. Adjusted EBITDA includes the following adjustments:

Adjusted EBITDA includes our portion of EBITDA from our equity investments.

Adjusted EBITDA excludes:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Transaction expense, net which includes:

–Acquisition, disposition, and land sale related charges;

–Direct online Sports and Casino business exit costs; and

–Other transaction expense, including legal, accounting, and other deal-related expense;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Stock-based compensation expense;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Rivers Des Plaines' impact on our investments in unconsolidated affiliates from:

–Legal reserves and transaction costs;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Asset impairments;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Gain on Calder Land sale;

As of December 31, 2021, Arlington ceased racing and simulcast operations. On February 15, 2023, the Company closed on the sale of the property to the Chicago Bears. Refer to Note 4, Dispositions and Assets Held for Sale for additional information. Arlington's operating loss in the current quarter and year is treated as an adjustment to EBITDA and is included in Other expenses, net in the Reconciliation of Comprehensive Income to Adjusted EBITDA.

We utilize the Adjusted EBITDA metric to provide a more accurate measure of our core operating results and enable management and investors to evaluate and compare from period to period our operating performance in a meaningful and consistent manner. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to operating income as an indicator of performance, as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity, or as an alternative to any other measure provided in accordance with GAAP. Our calculation of Adjusted EBITDA may be different from the calculation used by other companies and, therefore, comparability may be limited. For segment reporting, Adjusted EBITDA includes intercompany revenue and expense totals that are eliminated in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss).

The tables below present net revenue from external customers and intercompany revenue from each of our segments, Adjusted EBITDA by segment and reconciles comprehensive income to Adjusted EBITDA:

Net revenue by segment is comprised of the following:

**22. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS**

Directors and employees may from time to time own or have interests in horses racing at our racetracks. All such races are conducted under the regulations of each state's respective regulatory agency, as applicable, and no director or employee receives any extra or special benefit with regard to having his or her horses selected to run in races or in connection with the actual running of races. There is no material financial statement impact attributable to directors or employees who may have interests in horses racing at our racetracks.

In the ordinary course of business, we may enter into transactions with certain of our officers and directors for the sale of personal seat licenses, suite accommodations, and tickets for our live racing events. We believe that each such transaction has been on terms no less favorable for us than could have been obtained in a transaction with a third party, and no officer or director received any extra or special benefit in connection with such transactions.

***Stock Repurchase Agreement***

On February 1, 2021, the Company entered into an agreement (the "Stock Repurchase Agreement") with an affiliate of TDG to repurchase 1,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock for $193.94 per share in a privately negotiated transaction. The aggregate purchase price was $193.9 million. The Stock Repurchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants of the parties.

The repurchase of shares of common stock from TDG pursuant to the Stock Repurchase Agreement was approved by the Company's Board of Directors separately from, and did not reduce the authorized amount remaining under, the existing common stock repurchase program from October 2018. The Company repurchased the shares using available cash and borrowings under the Revolver.

***Amendment to Credit Agreement***

Also, on February 1, 2021, the Company entered into an amendment to the Credit Agreement to increase the amount of certain otherwise restricted payments permitted during the Financial Covenant Relief Period from $26.0 million to $226.0 million to accommodate the repurchase of shares of common stock from TDG described above.

**Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm**

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of Churchill Downs Incorporated

***Opinions on the Financial Statements and Internal Control over Financial Reporting***

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Churchill Downs Incorporated and its subsidiaries (the "Company") as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the related consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss), of shareholders' equity and of cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2022, including the related notes and schedule of valuation and qualifying accounts for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2022 appearing under Item 15(a)(2) (collectively referred to as the "consolidated financial statements"). We also have audited the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2022, based on criteria established in *Internal Control - Integrated Framework* (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2022 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2022, based on criteria established in *Internal Control - Integrated Framework* (2013) issued by the COSO.

***Basis for Opinions***

The Company's management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting appearing under Item 9A. Our responsibility is to express opinions on the Company's consolidated financial statements and on the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud, and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects.

Our audits of the consolidated financial statements included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.

As described in Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting, management has excluded the properties acquired as part of the Peninsula Pacific Entertainment LLC ("P2E) acquisition and Ellis Park Racing & Gaming ("Ellis Park) from its assessment of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2022, because they were acquired by the Company in purchase business combinations during 2022. We have also excluded the properties acquired as part of the P2E acquisition and Ellis Park from our audit of internal control over financial reporting. The properties acquired as part of the P2E acquisition and Ellis Park are wholly-owned subsidiaries whose total assets and total revenues excluded from management's assessment and our audit of internal control over financial reporting represent approximately 11.3% and less than 1% of total assets, respectively and approximately 6.1% and less than 1% of total revenues, respectively, of the related consolidated financial statement amounts as of and for the year ended December 31, 2022.

***Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting***

A company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures

------

that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

***Critical Audit Matters***

The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (i) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (ii) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.

*Acquisition of Peninsula Pacific Entertainment LLC – Valuation of Indefinite-Lived Gaming Rights Intangible Assets* 

As described in Notes 1 and 3 to the consolidated financial statements, on November 1, 2022, the Company completed the acquisition of substantially all of the assets of Peninsula Pacific Entertainment LLC ("P2E") for a preliminary purchase consideration of $2.835.9 million, net of cash acquired, which resulted in $1,865.6 million of indefinite-lived gaming rights intangible assets being recorded. The fair value of the gaming rights was determined using the Greenfield method, which is an income approach methodology. In estimating the fair value of the indefinite-lived gaming rights intangible assets, management makes significant estimates and assumptions about future revenue and operating expenses, start-up costs, and the discount rates.

The principal considerations for our determination that performing procedures relating to the indefinite-lived gaming rights intangible assets acquired in the acquisition of P2E is a critical audit matter are (i) the significant judgment by management when developing the fair value estimate of the indefinite-lived gaming rights, (ii) a high degree of auditor judgment, subjectivity, and effort in applying procedures and evaluating management's significant assumptions related to estimated future revenue and operating expenses, start-up costs, and discount rates; and (iii) the audit effort involved the use of professionals with specialized skill and knowledge.

Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements. These procedures included testing the effectiveness of controls relating to the acquisition accounting, including controls over management's valuation of the gaming rights intangible assets. These procedures also included, among others, (i) reading the purchase agreement, (ii) testing management's process for developing the fair value estimate of the indefinite-lived gaming rights intangible assets, (iii) evaluating the appropriateness of the income approach methodology, (iv) testing the completeness and accuracy of the data used in the methodology, and (v) evaluating the reasonableness of significant assumptions related to the future revenue and operating expenses, start-up costs, and discount rates. Evaluating the reasonableness of the future revenue and operating expenses and start-up costs involved considering the past performance of P2E, economic and industry forecasts, and whether the assumptions were consistent with evidence obtained in other areas of the audit. Professionals with specialized skill and knowledge were used to assist in the evaluation of the appropriateness of the Company's income approach methodology and the reasonableness of the discount rates assumption.

**ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES**

***Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures***

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports that we filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

As required by the Securities and Exchange Commission Rule 13a-15(e), we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2022. Based upon the foregoing, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

***Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting***

There has been no change in our internal controls over financial reporting during our most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. Our process for evaluating controls and procedures is continuous and encompasses constant improvement of the design and effectiveness of established controls and procedures.

***Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting***

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting of Churchill Downs Incorporated, as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of Churchill Downs Incorporated's internal control over financial reporting based upon the framework in the *Integrated Control-Integrated Framework (2013)* issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.

We have excluded the properties acquired as part of the Peninsula Pacific Entertainment LLC ("P2E") acquisition and Ellis Park Racing & Gaming ("Ellis Park") from our assessment of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2022, because these properties were acquired by us in business acquisitions during 2022. The total assets excluded were 11.3% and less than 1% of total assets, respectively and approximately 6.1% and less than 1% of total revenues, respectively, of the related consolidated financial statement amounts as of and for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Based upon our evaluation under the framework in the *Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013)* management has concluded that Churchill Downs Incorporated's internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2022.

![](ex108001.jpg)

1 FOURTH AMENDMENT TO THE CHURCHILL DOWNS INCORPORATED 2005 DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN (As Amended as of December 1, 2008) WHEREAS, Churchill Downs Incorporated (the "Company") maintains the 2005 Churchill Downs Incorporated Deferred Compensation Plan, as amended as of December 1, 2008 (the "Plan") for the benefit of its eligible employees; and WHEREAS, effective January 1, 2022, the Company deems it necessary and desirable to amend the Plan to provide for Class Year Accounts for which non-employee Directors will be permitted to make separate distribution elections; and WHEREAS, this Fourth Amendment shall supersede the provisions of the Plan to the extent those provisions are inconsistent with the provisions of the amendment; NOW, THEREFORE, by virtue and in exercise of the powers reserved to the Company under Section 9.1 Amendment or Termination of the Plan, the Plan is hereby amended in the following respects, effective January 1, 2022: 1. Section 2.1 is hereby amended to revise the introductory phrase appearing before subsection (1) thereto, to read as follows: "Account" means the Participant's In-Service Account, Distribution Account, Transferred Account and Class Year Accounts which are bookkeeping accounts established on the Company's records showing the amount of the Participant's accrued: 2. A new Section 2.5A is hereby added to the Plan to read as follows: "Class Year Account" means an account established for a Participant for each calendar year, commencing with the 2022 calendar year (for example, for the 2022 calendar year, the account shall be known as the 2022 Class Year Account, for the 2023 calendar year, the account shall be known as the 2023 Class Year Account, and so on) to which all Participant deferrals attributable to such calendar year shall be credited. 3. Section 3.4 is hereby amended to add two new sentences immediately following the second sentence of such section, which new sentences shall read as follows: Notwithstanding any provisions of this Plan to the contrary, effective with respect to deferral elections that apply to deferrals for calendar year 2022, and for each calendar year thereafter, each Director who is a Participant in the Plan must make a new deferral election and a new distribution election for each such calendar year, with such deferrals to be placed in the Participant's applicable Class Year Account for such calendar year. A distribution election form for a particular calendar year/Class Year Account must be filed and become irrevocable within the same time period that the associated deferral election for such calendar year/Class Year Account must be filed and become irrevocable.

![](ex108002.jpg)

2 4. Section 4.11 is hereby amended to delete the sentence contained therein which currently reads "A sub-account, referred to as a "Stock Account" shall be established in the name of each Director who makes a Stock Election, and such sub-account shall be included in the Participant's Distribution Account and shall be administered in accordance with procedures established by the Committee" and replace it with a new sentence which shall read as follows: A sub-account, referred to as a "Stock Account" shall be established in the name of each Director who makes a Stock Election, and such sub-account shall be included in the Participant's Distribution Account or applicable Class Year Account, and shall be administered in accordance with procedures established by the Committee. 5. Section 5.1 is hereby amended to revise the first paragraph thereto to read as follows: Plan Distribution Elections. Each Participant shall complete a distribution election with respect to his or her Distribution Account, Transferred Account, In-Service Distribution Account and each Class Year Account. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, amounts credited to a Participant's Account shall be paid to the Participant in accordance with the Participant's distribution election; provided, however, that if on the elected distribution date, any notional investment gains or losses cannot then be determined, such distribution shall be delayed until such accounting can be completed but in no event shall such payment be made later than sixty (60) days following such Participant's distribution election date. Distribution elections [a] shall be in writing on forms approved by the Committee, [b] in the case of the In-Service Distribution Account, shall specify a distribution date in accordance with Section 5.2, [c] shall specify the form of distribution in accordance with Section 5.3, [d] except with respect to Class Year Accounts, shall be filed with the Company upon first becoming eligible to participate in the Plan, and [e] with respect to Class Year Accounts, shall be filed in accordance with the requirements set forth in Section 3.4 and shall specify the time and form of distribution in accordance with Sections 5.2 and 5.3, and the distribution election form applicable to a particular Class Year Account, which form is hereby incorporated by reference. A Participant's In-Service Account distribution election, in addition to specifying an in-service distribution date, shall also specify the form of distribution if the Participant has a Separation From Service before the date designated for the in-service distribution. 6. Section 5.2 is hereby amended to add a new subsection (c) to read as follows: (c) Class Year Accounts. A Participant's particular Class Year Account shall be distributed to the Participant in the manner elected by the Participant in accordance with Section 5.3 and the Participant's distribution election form that is applicable to the particular Class Year Account, which distribution election form is hereby incorporated reference.

3 to such Class Year Account. For purposes of this Section 5.2(c), if payment is to be made due to Separation from Service, the Separation from Service of a Participant with one Employer will not interrupt the continuity of participation of such Participant if, concurrently with or immediately after such separation, the Participant has not incurred a Separation From Service and otherwise in accordance with Section 7. Where a Participant provides services as a Director and as an Employee, services provided as a Director are not taken into account for purposes of determining whether the Participant has a Separation From Service as an Employee, and service provided as a Director are not taken into account for purposes of determining whether the Participant has a Separation From Service as a Director. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, to the extent required in order to avoid accelerated taxation and/or tax penalties under Section 409A, if any Participant who is a "specified employee" (as defined under Section 409A) on his or her date of Separation From Service, any distribution from such Participant's applicable Class Year Account may not be made earlier than the date which is 6 months after the date of the Participant's Separation From Service (or, if earlier, the date of death of the Participant) from the Employer, and any amounts required to be so delayed shall be paid in the form of a lump sum on the earlier of (A) the first business day following the expiration of such six-month period or (B) as soon as practicable, but in no event later than sixty (60) days, following the Participant's death. For purposes of Section 409A, to the extent that any payment payable under the Plan is to be paid in installments, each such payment shall be treated as a separate identified payment for purposes of Section 409A. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, no shares of Common Stock shall be distributed from the Participant's Stock Account earlier than a date which is 6 months after the date of acquisition of the derivative security (as described in Rule 16b-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) related to such shares. 7. Section 5.3 is hereby amended to revise the penultimate sentence thereto to read as follows: Notwithstanding the preceding to the contrary, effective with respect to distribution elections made on and after January 1, 2020, including distribution elections made pursuant to Section 5.1 and 5.2 with respect to Class Year Accounts, a Participant who is a non-employee Director shall be permitted to elect only that benefits be paid in the form of either (a) a single lump sum payment or (b) equal annual installments over five (5) or ten (10) years.

If the Committee determines that an extension of time is required, written notice of the extension will be furnished to you prior to the end of the initial 60-day period. The extension notice will indicate the special circumstances requiring an extension of the time and the date by which the Committee expects to render its determination on review.

ERISA provides that all plan participants are entitled to: examine, without charge, at the office of the Senior Vice President Human Resources and at other specified locations (such as worksites), all documents governing the Plan, including insurance contracts, if any; and obtain copies of documents governing the operation of the Plan, including insurance contracts, if any, and updated summary plan description upon written request to the Senior Vice President Human Resources. The Senior Vice President Human Resources may make a reasonable charge for the copies; and In addition to creating rights for plan participants, ERISA imposes duties upon the people who are responsible for the operation of the Plan. The people who operate the Plan, called "fiduciaries" of the Plan, have a duty to do so prudently and in the interest of you and other plan participants and beneficiaries. No one, including your employer or any other person, may fire you or otherwise discriminate against you in any way to prevent you from obtaining a benefit .of exercising your rights under ERISA. If your claim for a pension or welfare benefit is denied in whole or in part, you have a right to know why this was done, to obtain copies of documents relating to the decision

------

![](ex1026008.jpg)

8 507081.04-Los Angeles Server 2A - MSW without charge and to appeal the denial, all under certain time schedules. Under ERISA, there are steps you can take to enforce these rights. For instance, if you request materials from the plan and do not receive them within 30 days, you may file suit in a federal court. In such a case, the court may require the plan administrator to provide the materials and pay you up to $110 a day until you receive them, unless the materials were not sent because of reasons beyond the control of the plan administrator. If you have a claim for benefits which is denied or ignored, in whole or in part, you may file suit in a state or federal court. In addition, if you disagree with the Plan's decision, or lack thereof, concerning the qualified status of a domestic relations order, you may file suit in federal court. If it should happen that plan fiduciaries misuse the plan's money, or if you are discriminated against for asserting your rights, you may seek assistance from the U.S. Department of Labor, or you may file suit in a federal court. The court will decide who should pay court costs and legal fees. If you are successful, the court may order the person you have sued to pay these costs and fees. However, if you lose, the court may order you to pay the costs and fees; for example, if it finds your claim is frivolous. If you have any questions about the Plan, you should call or write the plan administrator. If you have any questions about this statement or about your rights under ERISA, or if you need assistance in obtaining documents from the Plan Administrator, you should contact the nearest office of the Employee Benefits Security Administration, U.S. Department of Labor listed in your telephone directory or the Division of Technical Assistance and Inquiries, Employee Benefits Security Administration, U.S. Department of Labor, 200 Constitution Avenue N.W., Washington, D.C. 20210. You may also obtain certain publications about your rights and responsibilities under ERISA by calling the publications hotline of the Employee Benefits Security Administration. 18. Plan Information. This is a welfare benefit plan and this document serves as the Plan's official plan document and as the summary plan description. The Company is the plan administrator for ERISA reporting and disclosure purposes. The Company's address is 600 N. Hurstbourne Parkway, Suite 400, Louisville, Kentucky 40222, and service of process may be made on the Company at this address.
