Bally’s New York

In November 2025, the Company entered into a conveyance arrangement with the City of New York, under which it obtained specific land and associated property interests for its New York development initiative when the transaction closed on February 12, 2026. The transaction was accounted for as an asset acquisition.

Upon closing, the Company recognized a $190.1 million land asset and a corresponding liability of $183.6 million for its obligation to fund specified capital improvements and related infrastructure associated with the conveyance arrangement. The liability was initially measured at fair value based on the present value of estimated future cash expenditures. The fair value was determined using level 3 inputs, including a discount rate of 6.6% and the Company’s estimates of cost to complete the committed capital spend. Accretion of the liability over the construction period is capitalized to the related land asset, and the liability is reduced as capital expenditures are incurred. Refer to Note 15 “Commitments and Contingencies” for additional information regarding the conveyance arrangement and related commitments.
As of June 30, 2026 (Successor), the Company’s current portion of the liability, recorded within Accrued and other current liabilities, was $8.6 million. The long-term portion of the liability, recorded within Other long-term liabilities was $180.1 million. The Company recorded $3.6 million and $5.4 million of accretion expense during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 (Successor).
