BOYD GAMING REPORTS SECOND-QUARTER 2025 RESULTS

 

LAS VEGAS - JULY 24, 2025 - Boyd Gaming Corporation (NYSE: BYD) today reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2025.

 

Keith Smith, President and Chief Executive Officer of Boyd Gaming, said: “Our Company delivered a strong performance in the second quarter, with broad-based growth across our operating segments, including our Online and Managed segments. We achieved our strongest property-level revenue and Adjusted EBITDAR growth in more than three years, with property-level margins once again exceeding 40%. This growth was supported by continued strength in play from our core customers, as well as improvements in retail play. Looking ahead, the recently announced transaction to sell our equity stake in FanDuel will further strengthen the Company’s financial position as we continue to invest in our properties, pursue growth opportunities, return capital to shareholders and maintain a strong balance sheet – a strategy that continues to drive long-term shareholder value.”

 

Boyd Gaming reported second-quarter 2025 revenues of $1.0 billion, up from $967.5 million in the second quarter of 2024. The Company reported net income of $150.4 million, or $1.84 per share, for the second quarter of 2025, compared to $139.8 million, or $1.47 per share, for the year-ago period.

 

Total Adjusted EBITDAR(1) was $357.9 million in the second quarter of 2025, increasing from $344.2 million in the second quarter of 2024. Adjusted Earnings(1) for the second quarter of 2025 were $154.2 million, or $1.87 per share, compared to $150.0 million, or $1.58 per share, for the same period in 2024.

Operations Review

The Las Vegas Locals segment achieved its strongest quarterly growth in more than two years with year-over-year growth in both revenue and Adjusted EBITDAR, while segment margins were nearly 50%.  Downtown Las Vegas results reflected a challenging comparison to prior year, as visitation from Hawaiian guests was unusually elevated in the second quarter of 2024. Revenue and Adjusted EBITDAR growth continued in the Midwest & South segment, led by strong results at Treasure Chest Casino.

 

Results for the Online segment reflect growth from the Company’s online casino gaming business and modest growth from market-access agreements, while Managed & Other results were driven by continued growth in management fees from Sky River Casino.

 

Dividend and Share Repurchase Update

Boyd Gaming paid a quarterly cash dividend of $0.18 per share on July 15, 2025, as previously announced.

 

As part of its ongoing share repurchase program, the Company repurchased $105 million in shares of its common stock during the second quarter of 2025.

 

On July 17, 2025, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized an additional $500 million under the Company’s share repurchase program.  Considering the additional authorization, the Company had approximately $707 million remaining under the current share repurchase authorization as of June 30, 2025.

 

Balance Sheet Statistics

As of June 30, 2025, Boyd Gaming had cash on hand of $320.1 million, and total debt of $3.6 billion.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

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

 

EBITDA: earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization,

 

Adjusted EBITDA: EBITDA adjusted for deferred rent, share-based compensation expense, project development, preopening and writedown expenses, impairments of assets, other operating items, net, gain or loss on early extinguishments and modifications of debt, net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interest and other items, net, as applicable,

 

EBITDAR: EBITDA further adjusted for rent expense associated with master leases with a real estate investment trust,

 

Adjusted EBITDAR: Adjusted EBITDA further adjusted for rent expense associated with master leases with a real estate investment trust,

 

Adjusted Earnings: net income before project development, preopening and writedown expenses, impairments of assets, other operating items, net, gain or loss on early extinguishments and modifications of debt, net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interest, and other non-recurring adjustments, net, as applicable, and,

 

Adjusted Earnings Per Share (Adjusted EPS): Adjusted Earnings divided by weighted average diluted shares outstanding.

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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