Impact of COVID-19
In December 2019, an outbreak
Since the declaration of COVID-19 began in Wuhan, Hubei Province, China. The disease has since spread rapidly across the world, causing the World Health Organization to declare COVID-19as a pandemic on March 11, 2020. Since that time,2020, people across the globe have been advised to avoid non-essential travel, and steps have been taken by governmental authorities, including in the Statesstates in which the Company operates, to implement closures of non-essential operations to contain the spread of the virus. The COVID-19 pandemic has negatively impacted the global economy, disrupted global supply chains and created significant volatility and disruption of financial markets. Following emergency executive orders issued by the Governors of Nevada, Maryland and Montana in the week of March 16, 2020, all of the Company’s properties were temporarily closed to the public and the Company’s Distributed Gaming operations at third-party locations were suspended. The Company’s Distributed Gaming operations in Montana and Nevada resumed on May 4, 2020 and June 4, 2020, respectively, and the Company’s Casino operations in Nevada and Maryland resumed on June 4, 2020 and June 19, 2020, respectively. However, as a result of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the operations of the Colorado Belle remained suspended as of June 30, 2020.remain suspended. While all of the Company’s properties, except for the Colorado Belle, had been re-opened asduring the second quarter of June 30, 2020, the Company’s implementation of protocols intended to protect team members, gaming patrons and guests from potential COVID-19 exposure continues to limit the Company’s operations. These measures include enhanced sanitization, public gathering limitations of less than 50% ofon casino, tavern and tavernvenue capacity, patron social distancing requirements, restrictions on permitted hours of operations, limitations on casino operations, which include disabling electronic gaming machines, and face mask and temperature check requirements for patrons. Certain amenities at the Company’s casinos may remain closed or operate in a limited capacity, including restaurants, bars, and other food and beverage outlets, as well as table games, showrooms, meeting rooms, spas and pools. These measures limit the number of patrons that are able to attend these venues. Subsequent to fiscal quarter end, effectiveThe Company cannot predict when these restrictions on the Company’s operations will be eliminated.
On July 10, 2020, the Governor of the State of Nevada issued a newan emergency executive order mandating the closure of allbar tops and bar areas in restaurants, bars, pubs, taverns, breweries, distilleries, wineries and wineriesrelated facilities that are licensed to serve food in seven counties, including Clark County (the location of most of our branded taverns). In response to the Governor’s executive order, the Company immediately closed most of its tavern locations. The Company implemented modifications of the gaming areas in its taverns which allowed it to re-open its tavern locations beginning in late July 2020 and all of the tavern locations had re-opened by the end of September 2020.
On November 24, 2020, the Governor of Nevada issued an emergency executive order limiting occupancy in gaming areas and non-gaming businesses, including, but not limited to, retail stores, restaurants and bars, non-retail venues, pools and aquatic facilities, and other establishments in Nevada to 25% of the listed fire code capacity. On February 15, 2021 these restrictions were relaxed to allow the occupancy rate at gaming floors and food and beverage establishments, including restaurants, bars, pubs, wineries, distilleries and breweries, to increase to 35%, while permitted occupancy at retail stores, pools and aquatic facilities increased to 50% of the listed fire code capacity. On March 15, 2021 the Governor of Nevada further eased the occupancy limitations on the gaming properties by allowing the occupancy rate to go up to 50% of the listed fire code capacity. On May 1, 2021, the occupancy limitations for establishments located in Clark County were further eased by increasing to 80%, subject to state law considerations. It is uncertain when the COVID-19 mitigation measures in place as of the filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q will be further eased or eliminated.
With respect to the Company’s branded taverns) (referoperations in Montana, on November 20, 2020, the Governor of Montana issued an emergency executive order limiting operating capacity in all restaurants and bars to “Note 13 — Subsequent Events”)50%. In addition, the order required all such businesses to close between the hours of 10 pm and 4 am. In January 2021, the Governor of Montana rescinded the requirement for limited operating capacity, although certain restrictions at various counties remained in place as of March 31, 2021.
The
Company cannot predict whenCompany’s Maryland operations have been subject to a reduced operating capacity requirement of 50% since re-opening on June 19, 2020. On November 17, 2020, the Governor of Maryland issued an emergency executive order further restricting food service establishments by requiring them to close from 10 pm to 6 am. During these
restrictions on its operations will be changed or eliminated.closure hours, such establishments are allowed to take carry out and delivery orders off premises but such venues, including casinos, are not permitted to serve any beverages. On March 12, 2021, the Governor of Maryland rescinded all emergency executive orders related to COVID-19 limitations.
Temporary closures of the Company’s operations due to the COVID-19 pandemic resulted in lease concessions for certain of the Company’s taverns and route locations. Such concessions provided for deferral
and, in some instances, forgiveness of rent payments with no substantive
changesamendments to the consideration due per the terms of the original contract and did not result in a substantial
increasechange in the Company’s obligations under such leases. The Company elected to account for the deferred rent
payments as variable lease payments, which resulted in
an $8.8
milliona reduction inof rent expense in the amount of $1.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020. Such rentMarch 31, 2021. Rent expense that was not forgiven will be recorded in future periods as these deferred payments are paid to the Company’s lessors.
The disruptions arising from the COVID-19 pandemic
had a significant adversecontinue to have an impact on the Company’s financial condition,
and results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020. The duration and intensity of this global health emergency and related disruptions is uncertain. The impact of COVID-19 on the Company’s consolidated results of operations, cash flows and financial condition in 2020 will be material, but cannot be reasonably estimated at this time, as it is unknown when the
COVID-19 pandemic will end, when or how quickly the current travel restrictions,
occupancy and
tavern closuresother limitations will be
modifiedfurther eased or cease to be necessary, and how these uncertainties will impact the Company’s business and the willingness of customers to spend on travel and entertainment.
The impact of In 2020, in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, on the Company’s operations qualified as a triggering event necessitating an evaluation of long-lived assets, goodwill, and indefinite-lived intangible assets for indicators of impairment as discussed in “Note 3 — Property and Equipment, Net” and “Note 4 — Goodwill and Intangible Assets, Net.”
On March 16, 2020, the Company fully drew the available capacity of $200 million under its revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) as a precautionary measure in order to increase its cash position and preserve financial flexibility in light of uncertainty in the global markets resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. During the second quarter of 2020, the Company repaid $190 million of its borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility, and as of June 30, 2020, $190 million remained available to the Company for reborrowing. In addition, the Company has implemented various mitigating actions to preserve liquidity, including delaying material capital expenditures, reducing cash operating expenses and implementing a non-essential cost reduction program. program with respect to discretionary expenditures. Such measures remained in effect during the three months ended March 31, 2021 and as of March 31, 2021, the Company’s $200 million revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) was undrawn and available for borrowing. To further enhance its liquidity position or to finance any future acquisition or other business investment initiatives, the Company may obtain additional financing, which could consist of debt, convertible debt or equity financing from public or private credit and capital markets.

Accounting Standards Issued and Adopted
In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-13,
Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326) (“Topic 326”). The new guidance replaces the incurred loss impairment methodology in current GAAP with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. For trade and other receivables, loans and other financial
instruments, the Company is required to use a forward-looking expected loss model rather than the incurred loss model for recognizing credit losses which reflects losses that are probable. The Company adopted the standard as of January 1, 2020, and the adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements and disclosures.
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement (“Topic 820”). The new guidance amends the disclosure requirements for recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements by removing, modifying, and adding certain disclosures on fair value measurements in Topic 820. The amendments on changes in unrealized gains and losses, the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements, and the narrative description of measurement uncertainty should be applied prospectively for only the most recent interim or annual period presented in the initial fiscal year of adoption. All other amendments should be applied retrospectively to all periods presented upon their effective date. The Company adopted the standard as of January 1, 2020, and the adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements and disclosures.
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-15, Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract. The ASU is intended to eliminate potential diversity in practice in accounting for costs incurred to implement cloud computing arrangements that are service contracts by requiring customers in such arrangements to follow internal-use software guidance with respect to such costs, with any resulting deferred implementation costs recognized over the term of the contract in the same income statement line item as the fees associated with the hosting element of the arrangement. The Company adopted the standard as of January 1, 2020, and the adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements and disclosures.
Accounting Standards Issued but Not Yet Adopted
In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. The ASU iswas intended to simplify the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions for investments, intraperiod allocations, and interim calculations, and addsadded guidance to reduce the complexity of applying Topic 740. The Company adopted the standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020January 1, 2021, and interim periods within those fiscal years with earlythe adoption permitted.

The Company concluded thatreviews the carrying amounts of its long-lived assets, other than goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. While the impact of the current COVID-19 pandemic on itsthe Company’s operations and financial results is an indicatorongoing, management determined that there were no new indicators of impairment may existfor the three months ended March 31, 2021 (including no new indicators of impairment with respect to the Colorado Belle due to no changes in management’s assumptions related to its long-lived assets. As a result, the Company revised its cash flow projections to reflectfor the current economic environment, includingproperty), and as such, the uncertainty around the nature, timing and extent of elimination or change of the restrictions on its operations, and utilized such projections in performing an interim qualitative assessment of its property and equipment for potential impairment. The Company completed an undiscounted cash flow analysis for each of its properties based on these revised cash flow projections, and the cash flows were sufficient to recover the Company’s assets suchconcluded that there was 0 impairment of the Company’s long-lived assets as of June 30, 2020.
March 31, 2021.
To the extent the Company becomes aware of new facts and circumstances arising from the COVID-19 pandemic that impact its operations, the Company will revise its cash flow projections accordingly, as its estimates of future cash flows are highly dependent upon certain assumptions, including, but not limited to, the nature, timing, and extent of elimination or change of the restrictions on the Company’s operations and the extent and timing of the economic recovery globally, nationally, and specifically within the gaming industry. If such assumptions are not accurate, the Company may be required to record impairment charges in future periods, whether in connection with its regular review procedures, or earlier, if an indicator of an impairment is present prior to such evaluation.

Total amortization expense related to intangible assets was $2.2 million and $5.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
The Company tests goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment annually, in the last quarter of the year, unless events or changes in circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that the carrying value of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value. Finite-lived intangible assets are evaluated for potential impairment whenever there is an indicator that the carrying value of an asset group may not be recoverable.
While the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s operations is ongoing, management determined that there were no new indicators of impairment for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and the Company concluded that there was 0 impairment of the Company’s goodwill and intangible assets as of March 31, 2021.
During the first quarter of 2020, the Company concluded that the COVID-19 pandemic had an adverse impact on its operations and financial results, particularly within the Company’s Casinos segment due to the mandatory property closures, which management considered an indicator of impairment, and necessitated a performance of interim qualitative and quantitative impairment tests. The Company’s interim assessment resulted in recognition of a non-cash impairment of its Casinos segment goodwill of $6.5 million.
Mandatory shut-down of the Company’s properties for a majority of the second quarter of 2020 resulted in deterioration of performance of the Company’s casino properties in particular, which required the Company to revise its cash flow projections to reflect the current economic environment, including the uncertainty surrounding the nature, timing, and extent of elimination or change of the restrictions on the Company’s operations. As a result of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the operations of the Colorado Belle remained suspended as of June 30, 2020. The Company conducted an interim qualitative and quantitative assessment of its goodwill and intangible assets for potential impairment, which resulted in recognition of an additional non-cash impairment of the Company’s Casinos segment in the amount of $18.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020. The assessment also indicated that the carrying value of an indefinite-lived trade name for certain of the Company’s properties within the Casinos segment exceeded its fair value and resulted in recognition of a non-cash impairment charge of $2.6 million.
The estimated fair value of goodwill
and indefinite-lived intangible assets for the first and second quarter was determined using discounted cash flow models which utilized Level 3 inputs as follows: discount rate of 12.0%; long-term revenue growth rate of
2.0% to 3.0%.
There was 0 The impairment charge is included in “Impairment of goodwill and intangible assets” on the remaining goodwill or other intangible assets for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020.

To the extent the Company becomes aware of new facts and circumstances arising from the COVID-19 pandemic that impact its operations, the Company will revise its cash flow projections accordingly, as its estimates of future cash flows are highly dependent upon certain assumptions, including, but not limited to, the nature, timing, and extent of elimination or change of the restrictions on the Company’s operations and the extent and timing of the economic recovery globally, nationally, and specifically within the gaming industry. If such assumptions are not accurate, the Company may be required to record impairment charges in future periods, whether in connection with its regular review procedures, or earlier, if an indicator of an impairment is present prior to such evaluation.

9 –8 — Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements
Estimates of fair value for financial assets and liabilities are based on the framework established in the accounting guidance for fair value measurements. The framework defines fair value, provides guidance for measuring fair value and requires certain disclosures. The framework discusses valuation techniques, such as the market approach (comparable market prices), the income approach (present value of future income or cash flow)
, and the cost approach (cost to replace the service capacity of an asset or replacement cost). The framework utilizes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. The following is a brief description of those three levels:
| •
| Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
|
| •Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. | Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.
|
| •Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active. | Level 3: Unobservable inputs that reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions.
|
•Level 3: Unobservable inputs that reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions.
Financial assets and liabilities are classified based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Thus, assets and liabilities categorized as Level 3 may be measured at fair value using inputs that are observable (Levels 1 and 2) and unobservable (Level 3). Management’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment and may affect the valuation of assets and liabilities and their placement within the fair value hierarchy levels.
The carrying values of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and accounts payable approximate fair value because of the short duration of these financial instruments.
The following table summarizes the fair value measurement of the Company’s long-term debt:

The estimated fair value of the Company’s Term Loan
Revolving Credit Facility and 2026 Unsecured Notes is based on a relative value analysis performed as of
June 30, 2020March 31, 2021 and December 31,
2019.2020. The finance lease liabilities and notes payable are fixed-rate debt, are not traded and do not have observable market inputs, therefore, the fair value is estimated to be equal to the carrying value.
As of June 30, 2020, the Company had an interest rate cap agreement that was outstanding with a notional amount of $650 million, which expires on December 31, 2020. Using Level 2 inputs, the Company adjusts the carrying value of the interest rate cap agreement to estimated fair value quarterly based upon observable market-based inputs that reflect the present values of the difference between estimated future fixed rate payments and future variable receipts. The fair value of the Company’s interest rate cap agreement was immaterial as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019. As the Company elected to not apply hedge accounting, the change in fair value of its interest rate cap agreement was recorded in the consolidated statement of operations.

11 –10 — Segment Information
The Company conducts its business through 2 reportable operating segments: Casinos and Distributed Gaming. The Company’s Casinos segment involves the ownership and operation of resort casino properties in Nevada and Maryland. The Company’s Distributed Gaming segment involves the installation, maintenance and operation of slots and amusement devices in non-casino locations such as restaurants, bars, taverns, convenience stores, liquor stores and grocery stores in Nevada and Montana, and the operation of branded taverns targeting local patrons located primarily in the greater Las Vegas, Nevada metropolitan area. The Corporate and Other segment includes the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, miscellaneous receivables and corporate overhead. Costs recorded in the Corporate and Other segment have not been allocated to the Company’s reportable operating segments because these costs are not easily allocable and to do so would not be practical.
The Company evaluates each segment’s profitability based upon such segment’s Adjusted EBITDA, which represents each segment’s earnings before interest and other non-operating income (expense), income taxes, depreciation and amortization, impairment of goodwill and intangible assets,
acquisition and severance expenses, preopening and related expenses,
assetgain or loss on disposal
and other writedowns,of assets, share-based compensation expenses,
and change in fair value of derivative,
and other non-cash charges, calculated before corporate overhead (which is not allocated to each segment).
The following tables set forth, for the periods indicated, certain operating data for the Company’s segments, and reconciles net income (loss) to Adjusted EBITDA:

Impact of COVID-19
In December 2019, an outbreak
Since the declaration of COVID-19
began in Wuhan, Hubei Province, China. The disease has since spread rapidly across the world, causing the World Health Organization to declare COVID-19as a pandemic on March 11,
2020. Since that time,2020, people across the globe have been advised to avoid non-essential travel, and steps have been taken by governmental authorities, including in the
Statesstates in which we operate, to implement closures of non-essential operations to contain the spread of the virus. The
COVID-19 pandemic has negatively impacted the global economy, disrupted global supply chains and created significant volatility and disruption of financial markets. Following emergency executive orders issued by the Governors of Nevada, Maryland and Montana in the week of March 16, 2020, all of our properties were temporarily closed to the public and our Distributed Gaming operations at third-party
locations were suspended. Our
Distributed Gaming operations in Montana and Nevada resumed on May 4, 2020 and June 4, 2020, respectively, and our Casino operations in Nevada and Maryland resumed on June 4, 2020 and June 19, 2020, respectively. However, as a result of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the operations of the Colorado Belle Hotel & Casino Resort (“Colorado Belle”) remained suspended as of June 30, 2020.remain suspended. While all of our properties, except for the Colorado Belle, had been re-opened asduring the second quarter of June 30, 2020, our implementation of protocols intended to protect team members, gaming patrons and guests from potential COVID-19 exposure continues to limit our operations. These measures include enhanced sanitization, public gathering limitations of less than 50% ofon casino, tavern and tavernvenue capacity, patron social distancing requirements, restrictions on permitted hours of operations, limitations on casino operations, which include disabling electronic gaming machines, and face mask and temperature check requirements for patrons. Certain amenities at our casinos may remain closed or operate in a limited capacity, including restaurants, bars, and other food and beverage outlets, as well as table games, showrooms, meeting rooms, spas and pools. These measures limit the number of patrons that are able to attend these venues. Subsequent to fiscal quarter end, effectiveWe cannot predict when these restrictions on our operations will be eliminated.
On July 10, 2020, the Governor of the State of Nevada issued a newan emergency executive order mandating the closure of bar tops and bar areas in restaurants, bars, pubs, taverns, breweries, distilleries, wineries and wineriesrelated facilities that are licensed to serve food in seven counties, including Clark County (the location of most of our branded taverns) (see “Note 13 — Subsequent Events”. In response to the Governor’s executive order, we immediately closed most of our tavern locations. We implemented modifications of the gaming areas in Part I, Item 1: Financial Statements.) We cannot predict whenour taverns which allowed us to re-open our tavern locations beginning in late July 2020 and all of our tavern locations had re-opened by the end of September 2020.
On November 24, 2020, the Governor of Nevada issued an emergency executive order limiting occupancy in gaming areas and non-gaming businesses, including, but not limited to, retail stores, restaurants and bars, non-retail venues, pools and aquatic facilities, and other establishments in Nevada to 25% of the listed fire code capacity. On February 15, 2021 these restrictions were relaxed to allow the occupancy rate at gaming floors and food and beverage establishments, including restaurants, bars, pubs, wineries, distilleries and breweries, to increase to 35%, while the occupancy at retail stores, pools and aquatic facilities increased to 50% of the listed fire code capacity. On March 15, 2021 the Governor of Nevada further eased the occupancy limitations on the gaming properties by allowing the occupancy rate to go up to 50% of the listed fire code capacity. On May 1, 2021, the occupancy limitations for establishments located in Clark County were further eased by increasing to 80%, subject to state law considerations. It is uncertain when the COVID-19 mitigation measures in place as of the filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q will be further eased or eliminated.
With respect to our operations
will be changed or eliminated.in Montana, on November 20, 2020, the Governor of Montana issued an emergency executive order limiting operating capacity in all restaurants and bars to 50%. In addition, the order required all such businesses to close between the hours of 10 pm and 4 am. In January 2021, the Governor of Montana rescinded the requirement for limited operating capacity, although certain restrictions at various counties remained in place as of March 31, 2021.
Our Maryland operations have been subject to a reduced operating capacity requirement of 50% since re-opening on June 19, 2020. On November 17, 2020, the Governor of Maryland issued an emergency executive order further restricting food service establishments by requiring them to close from 10 pm to 6 am. During these closure hours, such establishments are allowed to take carry out and delivery orders off premises but such venues, including casinos, are not permitted to serve any beverages. On March 12, 2021, the Governor of Maryland rescinded all emergency executive orders related to COVID-19 limitations.
The disruptions arising from the COVID-19 pandemic
had a significant adversecontinue to have an impact on our financial condition,
and results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020. The duration and intensity of this global health emergency and related disruptions is uncertain. The impact of COVID-19 on our consolidated results of operations, cash flows and financial condition in 2020 will be material, but cannot be reasonably estimated at this time, as it is unknown when the
COVID-19 pandemic will end, when or how quickly the current travel restrictions,
occupancy and other limitations will be
modifiedfurther eased or cease to be necessary, and how these uncertainties will impact our business and the willingness of customers to spend on travel and entertainment.
The impact of In 2020, in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, on our operations qualified as a triggering event necessitating an evaluation of long-lived assets, goodwill, and indefinite-lived intangible assets for indicators of impairment as discussed in “Note 3 — Property and Equipment, Net” and “Note 4 — Goodwill and Intangible Assets, Net” in Part I, Item 1: Financial Statements.
On March 16, 2020, we fully drew the available capacity of $200 million under our revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) as a precautionary measure in order to increase our cash position and preserve financial flexibility in light of uncertainty in the global markets resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. During the second quarter of 2020, we repaid $190 million of our borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility, and as of June 30, 2020, $190 million remained available to us for reborrowing. In addition, we have implemented various mitigating actions to preserve liquidity, including delaying all material capital expenditures, reducing cash operating expenses and implementing a non-essential cost reduction program. program with respect to discretionary expenditures. Such measures remained in effect during the three months ended March 31, 2021 and as of March 31, 2021, our $200 million revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) was undrawn and available for borrowing. To further enhance our liquidity position or to finance any future acquisition or other business investment initiatives, we may obtain additional financing, which could consist of debt, convertible debt or equity financing from public or private credit and capital markets.
We own and operate ten resort casino properties in Nevada and Maryland. In light of COVID-19, certain amenities at our resort casino properties may remain closed or operate in a limited capacity, including restaurants, bars, and other food and beverage outlets, as well as table games, spas and pools.

a total of over 1,000 onsite slots. Most of our taverns are located in the greater Las Vegas, Nevada metropolitan area and cater to local patrons seeking more convenient entertainment establishments than traditional casino properties. Our tavern brands include PT’s

On July 10, 2020, the Governor of the State of Nevada issued a new emergency executive order mandating the closure of bars, pubs, taverns, breweries, distilleries, and wineries in seven counties, including Clark County. As a result of the Governor’s executive order, we have closed most of our tavern locations. As of the date hereof, we are not able to estimate when we will be able to re-open these tavern locations and we are evaluating mitigating actions that would allow us to resume our tavern operations in these locations.

To supplement our consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), we use Adjusted EBITDA, a measure we believe is appropriate to provide meaningful comparison with, and to enhance an overall understanding of, our past financial performance and prospects for the future. We believe Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to both management and investors by excluding specific expenses and gains that we believe are not indicative of our core operating results. Further, Adjusted EBITDA is a measure of operating performance used by management, as well as industry analysts, to evaluate operations and operating performance and is widely used in the gaming industry. The presentation of this additional information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, other companies in our industry may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do. A reconciliation of net loss to Adjusted EBITDA is provided in the table below.
We define “Adjusted EBITDA” as earnings before interest and other non-operating income (expense), income taxes, depreciation and amortization, impairment of goodwill acquisition and intangible assets, severance expenses, preopening and related expenses, assetgain or loss on disposal and other writedowns,of assets, share-based compensation expenses, and change in fair value of derivative.derivative, and other non-cash charges.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of
June 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, we had
$86.2$145.4 million in cash and cash equivalents. We currently believe that our cash and cash equivalents, cash flows from operations and borrowing availability under our Revolving Credit Facility will be sufficient to meet our capital requirements during the next 12 months. As of
June 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, we had borrowing availability of
$190$200 million under our Revolving Credit Facility.
Our operating results and performance depend significantly on national, regional and local economic conditions and their effect on consumer spending. Declines in consumer spending would cause revenues generated in both our Casinos and Distributed Gaming segments to be adversely affected.
To further enhance our liquidity position or to finance any future acquisition or other business investment initiatives, we may obtain additional financing, which could consist of debt, convertible debt or equity financing from public and/or private credit and capital markets.
Net cash used in operating activities was $10.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $61.4was $52.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021, compared to $11.2 million for the prior year period.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $6.8$197.1 million for the sixthree months ended June 30,March 31, 2020, primarily due to the borrowing of $200 millionborrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility as a precautionary measure in order to increase our cash position and preserve financial flexibility in light of uncertainty in the global markets resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, offset by the repayment of $190 million under our Revolving Credit Facility during the second quarter of 2020.

pandemic.
Other Items Affecting Liquidity
The outcome of the following specific matters, including our commitments and contingencies, may also affect our liquidity.
Commitments, Capital Spending and Development
We normally perform on-going refurbishment and maintenance at our facilities, of which certain maintenance costs are capitalized if such improvement or refurbishment extends the life of the related asset, while other maintenance costs that do not so qualify are expensed as incurred. The commitment of capital and the related timing thereof are contingent upon, among other things, negotiation of final agreements and receipt of approvals from the appropriate regulatory bodies. We normally fund such capital expenditures through our Revolving Credit Facility and operating cash flows.
However, due to the impact of COVID-19 pandemic on our operations, all material capital expenditures have been deferred.Refer to “Note 10 9— Commitments and Contingencies”
in Part I, Item 1: Financial Statements for additional information regarding commitments and contingencies that may also affect our liquidity.
On March 12, 2019, our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to
$25.0$25 million additional shares of common

Share repurchases may be made from time to time in open market transactions, block trades or in private transactions in accordance with applicable securities laws and regulations and other legal requirements, including compliance with our finance agreements. There is no minimum number of shares that we are required to repurchase and the repurchase program may be suspended or discontinued at any time without prior notice.
DuringThere were no repurchase transactions under the March 12, 2019 authorization during the three
and six months ended
June 30, 2020, no shares of our common stock were repurchased under our share repurchase programs.March 31, 2021.
We may investigate and pursue expansion opportunities in our existing or new markets from time to time. Such expansions will be influenced and determined by a number of factors, which may include licensing availability and approval, suitable investment opportunities and availability of acceptable financing. Investigation and pursuit of such opportunities may require us to make substantial investments or incur substantial costs, which we may fund through cash flows from operations or borrowing availability under our Revolving Credit Facility. To the extent such sources of funds are not sufficient, we may also seek to raise such additional funds through public or private equity or debt financings or from other sources. No assurance can be given that additional financing will be available or that, if available, such financing will be obtainable on terms favorable to us. Moreover, we can provide no assurances that the investigation or pursuit of an opportunity will result in a completed transaction.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Management’s discussion and analysis of our results of operations and liquidity and capital resources are based on our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the balance sheet date and reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and judgments, including those related to the application of the acquisition method of accounting, long-lived assets, goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets, revenue recognition, income taxes and share-based compensation expenses. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates.
A description of our critical accounting estimates can be found under Part II. Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Annual Report. For a more extensive discussion of our accounting policies, refer to “Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in Part II, Item 8: Financial Statements and Supplemental Data in our Annual Report.Report. There were no material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020.March 31, 2021.
Commitments and Contractual Obligations
We believe that our Casinos and Distributed Gaming segments are affected by seasonal factors, including holidays, weather and travel conditions. Our Las Vegas and Pahrump casinos as well as our Nevada distributed gaming businesses have historically experienced lower revenues during the summer as a result of fewer tourists due to higher temperatures in addition to increased vacation activity by local residents. Our casinos in Laughlin and Rocky Gap typically experience higher revenues during summer months with increased visitation and may be adversely impacted by inclement weather during winter months. Our Montana distributed gaming operations also typically experience higher revenues during the summer due to the inclement weather in other seasons. While other factors like the COVID-19 pandemic, unemployment levels, market competition and the diversification of our business may either offset or magnify seasonal effects, some seasonality is likely to continue, which could result in significant fluctuation in our quarterly operating results.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
The casino and distributed gaming industries are subject to extensive regulation by state gaming authorities. Changes in applicable laws or regulations could have a material adverse effect on us.
The gaming industry represents a significant source of tax revenues to regulators. From time to time, various federal and state legislators and officials have proposed changes in tax law, or in the administration of such law, affecting the gaming industry. It is not possible to determine the likelihood of possible changes in tax law or in the administration of such law. Such changes, if adopted, could have a material adverse effect on our future financial position, results of operations, cash flows and prospects.
Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no off balance sheet arrangements that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a current or future effect on our financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Our primary exposure to market risk is interest rate risk associated with our variable rate long-term debt. As of June 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, our variable rate long-term debt primarily comprised our indebtedness under the Credit Facility (defined in “Note 6“Note 5 — Long-Term Debt” in Part I, Item 1: Financial Statements). As of June 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, we had $772 million in principal amount of outstanding borrowings under the Term Loan (defined in “Note 6“Note 5 — Long-Term Debt” in Part I, Item 1: Financial Statements) and $10 million in principal amount ofno outstanding borrowings under ourthe Revolving Credit Facility. Our primary interest rate under the Credit Facility is the Eurodollar rate plus an applicable margin. The weighted-average effective interest rate on our outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility was approximately 3.77% and 4.17%3.75% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively.March 31, 2021. Assuming the outstanding balance under our Credit Facility remained constant over a year, a 50 basis point increase in the applicable interest rate would increase interest incurred, prior to effects of capitalized interest, by $3.9 million over a twelve-month period. As of June 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, our investment portfolio included $86.2$145.4 million in cash and cash equivalents and we did not hold any short-term investments.
We continue to evaluate the potential impact of the eventual replacement of the LIBOR benchmark interest rate, which is set to transition out at the end of 2021. Although we are not able to predict what will become a widely accepted benchmark in place of LIBOR, or the exact impact such a transition may have, our current expectation is that this transition will not have a material impact on our business, financial condition or results of operations.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving the objective that information in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified and pursuant to the requirements of the SEC’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosures. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
As required by SEC Rule 13a-15(b), we carried out an evaluation, with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level as of June 30, 2020.
March 31, 2021.
During the quarter ended
June 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
