COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo., Aug. 7, 2015 /CNW/ -- Century Casinos, Inc. (NASDAQ Capital Market®: CNTY) today announced its financial results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015.
Second Quarter 2015 Highlights*
- Net operating revenue was $37.9 million, a 20% increase from the three months ended June 30, 2014.
- Adjusted EBITDA** was $6.8 million, a 116% increase from the three months ended June 30, 2014.
- Net earnings attributable to Century Casinos, Inc. shareholders were $6.6 million, a 4129% increase from the three months ended June 30, 2014.
- Earnings per share were $0.27.
- Book value per share*** at June 30, 2015 was $5.05.
The period over period increases in net operating revenue, Adjusted EBITDA** and net earnings attributable to Century Casinos, Inc. shareholders relate to the operating results of Century Downs Racetrack and Casino ("CDR") and Century Bets!, Inc. ("CBS"). Net operating revenue and net earnings attributable to Century Casinos, Inc. shareholders also increased due to the termination of the Company's concession agreements with Oceania Cruises and Regent Seven Seas Cruises and the reduction of the Company's Austrian tax valuation allowance.
CDR opened its casino on April 1, 2015 and held its first horserace on April 25, 2015. The Company owns 75% of CDR through one of its subsidiaries.
CBS began operating the pari-mutuel network in Southern Alberta on May 4, 2015. The Company owns 75% of CBS through one of its subsidiaries.
In March 2015, the Company agreed to terminate its concession agreements with Oceania Cruises and Regent Seven Seas Cruises, indirect subsidiaries of Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings Ltd., effective June 1, 2015. As consideration for early termination of the concession agreements, the Company received $4.0 million in the second quarter of 2015. The Company operated eight ship-based casinos onboard Oceania Cruises and Regent Seven Seas Cruises vessels.
In addition, the Company entered into a two-year consulting agreement, effective June 1, 2015, under which it will provide limited consulting services to Oceania Cruises and Regent Seven Seas Cruises in return for a $2.0 million consulting fee that is payable in eight quarterly installments.
In May 2015, the Company began operating the ship-based casinos onboard two new Windstar Cruises ships, Star Breeze and Star Legend, and a new TUI Cruises ship, Mein Schiff 4.
In the second quarter of 2015, based on an analysis of the likelihood of future realization of its deferred tax assets in Austria, the Company concluded that its Austrian operations had attained a sustained level of profitability sufficient to reduce its valuation allowance in that jurisdiction, resulting in a tax benefit of $1.5 million.

* The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as net earnings (loss) before interest expense (income), net, income taxes (benefit), depreciation, amortization, non-controlling interest (earnings) losses and transactions, pre-opening expenses, acquisition costs, non-cash stock-based compensation charges, asset impairment costs, (gain) loss on disposition of fixed assets, discontinued operations, gain (loss) on foreign currency transactions and other, gain on business combination and certain other one-time items. Intercompany transactions consisting primarily of management and royalty fees and interest, along with their related tax effects, are excluded from the presentation of net earnings (loss) and Adjusted EBITDA reported for each segment. Not all of the aforementioned items occur in each reporting period, but have been included in the definition based on historical activity. These adjustments have no effect on the consolidated results as reported under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("US GAAP"). Adjusted EBITDA is not considered a measure of performance recognized under US GAAP. Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA is a valuable measure of the relative performance of the Company and its properties. The gaming industry commonly uses Adjusted EBITDA as a method of arriving at the economic value of a casino operation. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA to compare the relative operating performance of separate operating units by eliminating the above mentioned items associated with the varying levels of capital expenditures for infrastructure required to generate revenue, and the often high cost of acquiring existing operations. Adjusted EBITDA is used by the Company's lending institution to gauge operating performance. The Company's computation of Adjusted EBITDA may be different from, and therefore may not be comparable to, similar measures used by other companies within the gaming industry. Please see the reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net earnings (loss) above.
** The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA margin as Adjusted EBITDA divided by net operating revenue. Management uses this margin as one of several measures to evaluate the efficiency of the Company's casino operations.
