  2025
       
Revenue $ 301   $ 277

The Virginia HRM increase was primarily due to a $5 million net increase from our Northern Virginia venues and a $1 million increase from our Western Virginia venue, partially offset by a $1 million net decrease from our Central Virginia venues primarily from increased competition and unfavorable weather.

First quarter 2026 Adjusted EBITDA increased $11 million due to a $9 million increase from our Kentucky HRM venues, a $3 million net increase from our Virginia HRM venues, and a $1 million net increase from our New Hampshire venues, partially offset by a $2 million decrease at Churchill Downs Racetrack.

NET INCOME ATTRIBUTABLE TO CDI

The Company's first quarter 2026 net income attributable to CDI was $83 million compared to $77 million in the prior year quarter.

The following factors impacted the comparability of the Company's first quarter 2026 net income to the prior year quarter:

This was partially offset by:

  • a $2 million after-tax increase in transaction, pre-opening, and other expenses.

Excluding the items above, first quarter 2026 adjusted net income attributable to CDI increased $5 million primarily due to the following:

  • a $3 million after-tax increase primarily driven by the results of our operations; and
  • a $2 million after-tax increase in equity income from our unconsolidated affiliates.

Use of Non-GAAP Measures

In addition to the results provided in accordance with GAAP, the Company also uses non-GAAP measures, including adjusted net income, adjusted diluted EPS, EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization), and Adjusted EBITDA.

The Company uses non-GAAP measures as a key performance measure of the results of operations for purposes of evaluating performance internally. These measures facilitate comparison of operating performance between periods and help investors to better understand the operating results of the Company by excluding certain items that may not be indicative of the Company's core business or operating results. The Company believes the use of these measures enables management and investors to evaluate and compare, from period to period, the Company’s operating performance in a meaningful and consistent manner. The non-GAAP measures are a supplemental measure of our performance that is not required by, or presented in accordance with, GAAP, and should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income or diluted EPS (as determined in accordance with GAAP) as a measure of our operating results.

We use Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate segment performance, develop strategy, and allocate resources. We utilize the Adjusted EBITDA metric to provide a more accurate measure of our core operating results and enable management and investors to evaluate and compare from period to period our operating performance in a meaningful and consistent manner. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to operating income as an indicator of performance, as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity, or as an alternative to any other measure provided in accordance with GAAP. Our calculation of Adjusted EBITDA may be different from the calculation used by other companies and, therefore, comparability may be limited.

Adjusted net income and adjusted diluted EPS exclude discontinued operations net income or loss; net income or loss attributable to noncontrolling interests; transaction expense, which includes acquisition and disposition related charges, as well as legal, accounting, and other deal-related expense; pre-opening expense; and certain other gains, charges, recoveries, and expenses.

Adjusted EBITDA includes our portion of EBITDA from our equity investments and the portion of EBITDA attributable to noncontrolling interests.

Adjusted EBITDA excludes:

  • Transaction expense, net which includes:
    • Acquisition, disposition, and property sale related charges; and
    • Other transaction expense, including legal, accounting, and other deal-related expense;
  • Stock-based compensation expense;
  • Rivers Des Plaines' impact on our investments in unconsolidated affiliates from legal reserves and transaction costs;
  • Asset impairments, net;
  • Gain on property sales;
  • Legal reserves;
  • Pre-opening expense; and
  • Other charges, recoveries, and expenses.

For segment reporting, Adjusted EBITDA includes intercompany revenue and expense totals that are eliminated in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. See the Reconciliation of Comprehensive Income to Adjusted EBITDA included herewith for additional information.
