Preliminary Results and Form 10-K Extension

The Company will file an extension for the filing of its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. Accordingly, we are announcing preliminary results for the year, which are based on currently available information and are subject to revision as management completes its internal review. Actual results may differ from these preliminary financial results and other financial information due to the completion of our internal procedures, the audit of our financial statements, final adjustments and other developments that may arise between now and the time the results are finalized.

Summary of Preliminary Financial Results

Bally’s combined its International Interactive Business and Intralot on October 8, 2025, creating Bally’s Intralot, a global leader in iGaming and lottery. Bally’s has a 58% controlling interest in Bally’s Intralot and its results are consolidated in Bally’s consolidated financials following the transaction. With the inclusion of Intralot, the Company has realigned its operations into four reportable segments: Casinos & Resorts, Bally's Intralot B2B, Bally's Intralot B2C, and North America Interactive. Prior period results have been recast to reflect the current segment presentation. Bally's Intralot B2B includes Bally's Intralot's global lottery operations and the Company's licensing business. Bally's Intralot B2C includes the International Interactive European iGaming and online sports betting operations, a retail casino in Newcastle, and other B2C businesses, primarily Intralot’s sports betting operations in Turkey. Intralot is a public company and its financial results for reporting periods prior to the transaction are available on Bally’s Intralot’s website.

Total revenue from legacy Intralot consolidated by Bally's in the fourth quarter following the transaction was $98.2 million of which$76.5 million was in the B2B segment and $21.8 million was in the B2C segment.

Robeson Reeves, Bally’s Chief Executive Officer, commented, “Our fourth quarter completed a successful and truly transformational year for Bally’s. In 2025, we reshaped and expanded our portfolio both domestically and internationally, online and in retail, while strengthening our balance sheet and positioning the Company for near- and long-term growth.

“Domestically, we have made substantial progress on Bally’s Chicago – the only casino in the city limits of Chicago and the largest in the state of Illinois. The permanent casino will feature approximately 3,400 slots, over 170 table games, a 500-room hotel tower, a 3,000-seat theater, ten food and beverage venues and a river-side public park.

“In December, the New York State Gaming Commission issued a Gaming Facility License to develop Bally’s Bronx. Bally’s Bronx is a $4.0 billion integrated casino resort project, the largest private development in the borough’s history. Expected to open by 2030, it is anticipated to be a 16-acre attraction with 3 million square feet of gaming facilities, a 500-room hotel, a 2,000-person event center and a cultural destination. We are both excited for and committed to the Bronx project, which is a tremendous opportunity for the local community, with over $765 million of community benefits and thousands of jobs.

“We continue to move forward with our development of Bally’s Las Vegas on the former Tropicana site, sharing a 35-acre campus with Major League Baseball’s Las Vegas Athletics. This multi-phased project will feature an exciting mix of sports, casino, retail, dining, and immersive entertainment experiences with over 500,000 square feet of space and direct access to the ballpark. With construction already underway to support the A’s 2028 season opening, Bally’s Las Vegas is set to redefine the retail, dining and entertainment experience in the heart of the Strip.

“In 2025, we expanded our retail holdings internationally with an investment in The Star Entertainment Group (ASX: SGR, “Star”), Australia’s second largest gaming operator with three casinos that had come under distress. In the fourth quarter, following confirmation of suitability by Australian regulators, Bally’s converted its loan to Star into a 38% equity interest. With a proven track record of revitalizing underperforming businesses, Bally’s is excited to lend its expertise to Star and contribute to its successful turnaround as a leading operator in the Asia-Pacific region.

“On the digital interactive side, we became the majority shareholder of Bally’s Intralot and created a global iGaming and lottery champion with enhanced scale, diversification, and a highly complementary product offering across B2C, B2G and B2B channels.

“In summary, our strategic initiatives of the past year have created a scaled, growing, global omni-channel provider of retail and online experiences. We continue to demonstrate strategic and prudent use of our capital resources and balance sheet to drive growth and returns for our stakeholders. Combined with our operational expertise and long-term vision, we are aggressively pursuing and executing on the many growth opportunities before us.”

Preliminary Fourth Quarter Financial Review

Fourth quarter 2025 Casinos & Resorts revenue of $366.2 million rose 12.9% year over year, primarily reflecting the addition of four regional gaming properties from Queen earlier in 2025, partially offset by new competition in Shreveport, Evansville and Dover. Casinos & Resorts Segment Adjusted EBITDAR grew 5.6% year over year to $85.3 million reflecting the fourth quarter 2025 revenue increase, partially offset by elevated competition and the allocation of approximately $2.2 million of additional shared services costs from Corporate to Casinos & Resorts to better align with our business structure (for the full year 2025, approximately $14.6 million additional shared services costs were allocated from Corporate to Casinos & Resorts). Properties operating in stable competitive environments continued to grow year over year in the fourth quarter, with particularly strong Adjusted EBITDAR improvements at Lincoln and Bally’s Baton Rouge (previously Belle of Baton Rouge), which had the grand opening of its $160 million landside conversion in December.

Fourth quarter 2025 Bally's Intralot B2C revenue demonstrated continued strength in our U.K. operations. U.K. online revenue rose 6.3% in constant currency versus the fourth quarter of 2024, driven by a large increase in new player volumes as well as continuing momentum in sports betting. In November, the United Kingdom announced an increase in remote gaming duty effective April 2026. As a strong operator with high margins, our Bally's Intralot B2C segment is well positioned to mitigate the impact of this change and take market share, and our UK iGaming revenue growth in the fourth quarter already outpaced that of our closest competitors. Revenues in Spain also grew 6.3% year over year in constant currency, supported by improved long-term retention and an increase in sports-led new players. Year over year growth in the B2C segment was further supported by the inclusion of Intralot’s B2C operations in the fourth quarter of 2025, partially offset by the divestiture of the Asia interactive business in October 2024 that generated $14.1 million of revenue in the fourth quarter of 2024 which was included in Bally’s Intralot B2C segment (for the full year 2024, the divested Asia interactive business generated $170.1 million of revenue which was included in Bally’s Intralot B2C results).

Bally's Intralot B2B segment includes Intralot’s B2B and B2G operations, following the completion of the Intralot transaction. Prior year fourth quarter revenue and Segment Adjusted EBITDAR represent a royalty cash flow stream related to the Asia interactive business following its divestiture in October 2024.

Revenue for our North America Interactive segment of $62.3 million rose 55.4% year over year in the fourth quarter and recorded positive Segment Adjusted EBITDAR of $0.8 million compared to a negative Segment Adjusted EBITDAR in the prior year of $10.2 million. This material improvement reflects strong growth across both iGaming and sports betting. Strategic initiatives implemented by our new North America Interactive leadership team focused on customer experience, AI, and automation are bearing the positive results we anticipated while positioning the business for continued growth.

Reconciliation of GAAP Measures to Non-GAAP Measures

To supplement the financial information presented on a generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) basis, Bally’s has included in this earnings release non-GAAP financial measures for consolidated Adjusted EBITDA and Segment Adjusted EBITDAR, which exclude certain items described below. The reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to their comparable GAAP financial measures are presented in the tables appearing below.

“Adjusted EBITDA” is earnings, or loss, for Bally’s, or where noted Bally’s reportable segments, before, in each case, interest expense, net of interest income, provision (benefit) for income taxes, depreciation and amortization, non-operating (income) expense, acquisition and other transaction related costs, share-based compensation, and certain other gains or losses as well as, when presented for Bally’s reporting segments, an adjustment related to the allocation of corporate costs among segments.

“Segment Adjusted EBITDAR” is Adjusted EBITDA (as defined above) for Bally’s reportable segments, plus rent expense associated with triple net operating leases for the real estate assets used in the operation of the Bally’s casinos and the assumption of the lease for real estate and land underlying the operations of the Bally’s Lake Tahoe property. For the International Interactive, North America Interactive, and Other segments, Segment Adjusted EBITDAR and segment Adjusted EBITDA are equivalent due to a lack of triple net operating lease for real estate assets used in those segments.

Management has historically used consolidated Adjusted EBITDA and Segment Adjusted EBITDAR when evaluating operating performance because Bally’s believes that these metrics are necessary to provide a full understanding of Bally’s core operating results and as a means to evaluate period-to-period performance. Management also believes that consolidated Adjusted EBITDA and Segment Adjusted EBITDAR are measures that are widely used for evaluating operating performance of companies in Bally’s industry and a principal basis for valuing such companies as well. Adjusted EBITDAR is used outside of our financial statements solely as a valuation metric. Management believes Adjusted EBITDAR is an additional metric traditionally used by analysts in valuing gaming companies subject to triple net leases since it eliminates the effects of variability in leasing methods and capital structures. Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA and segment Adjusted EBITDAR should not be construed as alternatives to GAAP net income as an indicator of Bally’s performance. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA or Segment Adjusted EBITDAR as used by Bally’s may not be defined in the same manner as other companies in Bally’s industry, and, as a result, may not be comparable to similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures of other companies.
