Contract and Contract Related Liabilities
The Company records contract or contract related liabilities related to differences between the timing of cash receipts from the customer and the recognition of revenue. The Company generally has three types of liabilities related to contracts with customers: (1) outstanding chip liability, which represents the amounts owed in exchange for gaming chips held by customers, (2) Caesars Rewards player loyalty program obligations, which represent the deferred allocation of revenue relating to reward credits granted to Caesars Rewards members based on certain types of customer spend, including online and retail gaming, hotel, dining, retail shopping, and player loyalty program incentives earned, and (3) customer deposits and other deferred revenue, which primarily represents funds deposited by customers related to gaming play or advance payments received for goods and services yet to be provided (such as advance ticket sales, deposits on rooms and convention space, unpaid wagers, iGaming deposits, or future sports bets). These liabilities are generally expected to be recognized as revenue within one year of being purchased, earned, or deposited and are recorded within Accrued other liabilities on the Company’s Balance Sheets. Liabilities expected to be recognized as revenue beyond one year of being purchased, earned, or deposited are recorded within Other long-term liabilities on the Company’s Balance Sheets.

Lease Revenue
Lodging Arrangements
Lodging arrangements are considered short-term and generally consist of lease and nonlease components. The lease component is the predominant component of the arrangement and consists of the fees charged for lodging. The nonlease components primarily consist of resort fees and other miscellaneous items. As the timing and pattern of transfer of both the lease and nonlease components are over the course of the lease term, we have elected to combine the revenue generated from lease and nonlease components into a single lease component based on the predominant component in the arrangement. During the three months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, we recognized lease revenue of approximately $467 million and $485 million, respectively, and during the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, we recognized approximately $1.4 billion and $1.5 billion, respectively, which is included in Hotel revenues in the Statements of Operations.
Conventions
Convention arrangements are considered short-term and generally consist of lease and nonlease components. The lease component is the predominant component of the arrangement and consists of fees charged for the use of meeting space. The nonlease components primarily consist of food and beverage and audio/visual services. Revenue from conventions is included in Food and beverage revenue in the Statements of Operations and during the three months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, lease revenue related to conventions was approximately $8 million and $12 million, respectively, and approximately $37 million and $41 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively.
Real Estate Operating Leases
Real estate lease revenue is included in Other revenue in the Statements of Operations. During the three months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, we recognized approximately $38 million and $32 million, respectively, and during the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, we recognized approximately $108 million and $93 million, respectively, of real estate lease revenue.
Real estate lease revenue includes $15 million of variable rental income for both the three months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025 and $46 million and $44 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively.
