Agreement and Plan of Merger
On February 7, 2025, the Company completed the previously announced transactions under the Agreement and Plan of Merger (as amended, the “Merger Agreement”) with SG Parent LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Parent”), The Queen Casino & Entertainment, Inc., a Delaware corporation and affiliate of Parent (“Queen”), Epsilon Sub I, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub I”), Epsilon Sub II, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub II”, and together with the Company and Merger Sub I, the “Company Parties”), and, solely for purposes of specified provisions thereof, SG CQ Gaming LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“SG Gaming” and together with Parent and Queen, the “Buyer Parties”). On February 7, 2025, as a result of the transactions, Parent and its affiliates beneficially owned 73.8% of the issued and outstanding Company common stock.
Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, (i) SG Gaming contributed to the Company all shares of common stock of Queen that it owned (the “Queen Share Contribution”) in exchange for 26,909,895 shares of common stock of the Company (“Company Common Stock”) based on a 2.4536890595 share exchange ratio, (ii) the Company issued approximately 3,542,201 shares of Company Common Stock to the other stockholders of Queen, (iii) immediately thereafter, Merger Sub I merged into the Company (the “Company Merger”), with the Company surviving the Company Merger and (iv) immediately thereafter, Merger Sub II merged into Queen (the “Queen Merger,” and together with the Company Merger, the “Merger”), with Queen surviving the Queen Merger as a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.
At the effective time of the Merger, each share of the Company’s Common Stock issued and outstanding (other than shares of common stock owned by (i) the Company or any of its wholly owned subsidiaries, (ii) Parent or any of Parent’s affiliates, (iii) by holders exercising statutory appraisal rights; (iv) by SG Gaming following the Queen Share Contribution; or (v) by holders who have elected to have such shares remain issued and outstanding following the Company Merger (a “Rolling Share Election”)) were converted into the right to receive cash consideration equal to $18.25 per share of common stock (the “Per Share Price”). Each holder of shares of Company Common Stock (other than the Company or its subsidiaries) had the option to make a Rolling Share Election.
Concurrently with the Merger Agreement, the Company and Parent entered into support agreements with Standard RI Ltd. (“SRL”) (the “SG Support Agreement”), SBG Gaming, LLC, a designated subsidiary of Sinclair (“SBG”) (the “SBG Support Agreement”), and Noel Hayden (the “Hayden Support Agreement”), collectively known as the “Support Agreements”. The Support Agreements obligated the parties to vote their respective shares in favor of the Merger Agreement and related transactions, and to make a Rolling Share Election for their shares, including those acquired through options or warrants. Additionally, under the SBG Support Agreement, SBG agreed to waive its right to the options it previously acquired under a Framework Agreement originally entered into in 2020 (the “Framework Agreement”), upon completion of the Merger, and in exchange, the Company issued SBG warrants to purchase 384,536 shares of the Company’s common stock under substantially similar terms to the Penny Warrants issued to SBG under the Framework Agreement. In connection with the Merger, as of February 7, 2025, all outstanding Performance Warrants became immediately exercisable at a price of $0.01 per share.
Acquisition of Intralot
In 2025, following the Queen Merger, the Company held an investment in Intralot, which was accounted for as an equity method investment under the fair value option. The total initial investment represented approximately 26.86% of Intralot’s outstanding shares. As part of this investment structure, the Company held a €25.0 million delayed draw term loan receivable from a third‑party investment holding company, the repayment of which was contractually tied to the delivery of Intralot shares. During the three months ended June 30, 2025 (Successor), the Company settled this outstanding delayed draw term loan by receiving 34.3 million shares of Intralot in full satisfaction of the loan, consistent with the fair value model that estimated repayment based on the value of Intralot shares. In addition, on June 30, 2025, the Company purchased 4.8 million additional Intralot shares for €1.06 per share. These transactions collectively triggered a mandatory tender offer for the remaining outstanding shares of Intralot. During the three months ended September 30, 2025 (Successor), the mandatory tender offer was completed, and the Company’s acquired an additional 6.1 million shares of Intralot, increasing its ownership to 34.35% of Intralot’s outstanding shares prior to the transaction described below.
On October 8, 2025 (the “Intralot Closing Date”), the Company completed the previously announced acquisition under the transaction agreement (the “Transaction Agreement”) of Intralot, pursuant to which Intralot agreed to acquire Bally’s International Interactive through a combined cash-and-equity transaction. Pursuant to the Transaction Agreement, (i) Intralot paid the Company $1.8 billion in cash and issued approximately 873.7 million new shares in exchange for all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Bally’s Holdings Limited which held Bally’s International Interactive, (ii) the Company’s ownership of Intralot increased to a controlling 57.9% interest through the issuance of equity to the Company’s consolidated subsidiary Premier Entertainment Sub, LLC via PE Sub Holdings LLC, an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, making the Company the majority shareholder of Intralot (the “Intralot Transaction”).
As a result of obtaining a controlling financial interest in Intralot, the Company retained control of Bally’s International Interactive, via Bally’s Holdings Limited, throughout the transaction. On the Intralot Closing Date, legal ownership of Bally’s Holdings Limited transferred from Premier Entertainment Sub to Intralot; however, Bally’s Corporation simultaneously obtained control of Intralot. Accordingly, Bally’s maintained control of Bally’s International Interactive, and as a result, the transfer of Bally’s International Interactive was accounted for as an equity transaction with the initial recognition of a 42.1% non-controlling interest, and no gain or loss was recognized in earnings.
- SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and include the accounts of the Company, its majority-owned subsidiaries and entities the Company identifies as variable interest entities (“VIEs”), of which the Company is determined to be the primary beneficiary. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year’s presentation. The financial statements of our foreign subsidiaries are translated into US Dollars (“USD”) using exchange rates in effect at period-end for assets and liabilities and average exchange rates during each reporting period for results of operations. Adjustments resulting from financial statement translations are reflected as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). Foreign currency transaction gains and losses are included in net loss.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for interim financial information, including the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of the SEC’s Regulation S-X. Accordingly, certain information and note disclosures normally required in complete financial statements prepared in conformity with GAAP have been condensed or omitted. In the Company’s opinion, these condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented.
These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.
We have made estimates and judgments affecting the amounts reported in our condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. The actual results that we experience may differ materially from our estimates.
As described in Note 1 “General Information”, the Company completed the Merger with Queen on February 7, 2025 (the “Closing”), with Queen surviving the Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The Parent and its affiliates maintained a controlling financial interest, as defined by ASC 810, Consolidation, in Queen before and after the Merger, and in the Company upon consummation of the Merger. The Merger with Queen was accounted for as a transaction between entities under common control because the Parent and its affiliates contributed a wholly owned subsidiary into the Company, which became a controlled subsidiary of the Parent and its affiliates upon consummation of the merger. The Company has elected to push down its Parent’s basis in its net assets into its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, and as a result, unless the context otherwise requires, the “Company,” for periods prior to the Closing refers to Bally’s (“Predecessor”), and for the periods after the Closing refers to the combined Company of Bally’s and Queen (“Successor” or the “Company”). As a result of the Merger, the results of operations, financial position and cash flows of the Predecessor and the Successor are not directly comparable. As Bally’s was deemed to be the predecessor entity, the historical financial statements of Bally’s became the historical financial statements of the combined Company, upon the consummation of the Merger. As a result, the financial statements included in this report reflect (i) the historical operating results of Bally’s prior to the Merger and (ii) the combined results of the Company following the Closing. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include a Predecessor period, which includes the period through February 7, 2025 concurrent with the Merger, and a Successor period from February 8, 2025 through March 31, 2026. A black line between the Successor and Predecessor periods has been placed in the condensed consolidated financial statements and in the tables to the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements to highlight the lack of comparability between these two periods.
Queen is a regional gaming, hospitality and entertainment company that owns and operates four casinos across three states. The Merger expands the Company’s Casinos & Resorts geographic footprint and enhances the Company’s development pipeline, which aligns with the Company’s broader strategic initiatives.
Certain adjustments have been made to Queen’s historical carrying values to conform accounting policies with the Company, with any such adjustments being recorded to equity. The preliminary purchase price of Queen is estimated based on the fair value of all existing and outstanding shares of Queen that were exchanged for shares of Company common stock, with the net effect of the transaction being charged to equity. The preliminary purchase price of Queen and adjustment to equity resulting from the merger consists of the following:
| (in thousands, except share and per share data) | Amount |
|---|---|
| Queen common stock outstanding on February 7, 2025 | 10,967,117 |
| Per share ratio | 2.45 |
| Equivalent Bally’s common stock to be issued | 26,909,895 |
| Bally’s common stock issued to settle Queen’s outstanding warrant and restricted stock awards | 3,542,201 |
| Total Bally’s shares issued for Queen shares outstanding | 30,452,096 |
| Share price per Merger Agreement | $18.25 |
| Total purchase price | $555,751 |
| Less: Queen net assets assumed | 217,027 |
| Equity adjustment associated with the Queen merger | $338,724 |
For the three months ended March 31, 2026 (Successor) and the period from February 8, 2025 to March 31, 2025 (Successor), revenue for Queen was $68.5 million and $34.7 million, respectively, and net income was $1.6 million and $13.0 million for the same periods, respectively.
Equity Method Investments
The Company holds a 37.7% equity interest in The Star Entertainment Group Limited (“The Star”), an ASX-listed company, which it accounts for as an equity method investment under the fair value option allowed by ASC 825, Financial Instruments. Under the fair value option, the investment is remeasured at fair value at each reporting period through earnings. The Company measures fair value using quoted prices in active markets that are classified within Level 1 of the hierarchy, with changes to fair value included within Other non-operating expense, net of the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
In 2025, following the Queen Merger, the Company had an investment in Intralot. The total initial investment represented approximately 26.86% of the outstanding shares of Intralot. During the fourth quarter of 2025, the Company acquired a controlling financial interest in Intralot as described in Note 1 “General Information” and will account for the Intralot Transaction as a business combination (refer to Note 7 “Business Combinations” for further information). Prior to the Intralot Transaction, the Company accounted for its shares as an equity method investment under the fair value option.
The Company also has other investments in unconsolidated subsidiaries, which are accounted for using equity method accounting. The Company records its share of net income or loss and changes in fair value for equity method investments accounted for under the fair value option within Other non-operating expense, net in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. Refer to Note 4 “Consolidated Financial Information” for further information.
Variable Interest Entities
The Company evaluates entities for which control is achieved through means other than voting rights to determine if it is the primary beneficiary of a VIE. An entity is a VIE if it has any of the following characteristics (i) has insufficient equity to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support (ii) equity holders, as a group, lack the characteristics of a controlling financial interest or (iii) the entity is structured with non-substantive voting rights. The primary beneficiary of the VIE is generally the entity that has (a) the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance and (b) the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIE. The Company consolidates its investment in a VIE when it determines that it is its primary beneficiary.
In determining whether it is the primary beneficiary of the VIE, the Company considers qualitative and quantitative factors, including, but not limited to which activities most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance and which party controls such activities and significance of the Company’s investment and other means of participation in the VIE’s expected profits/losses. Significant judgments related to these determinations include estimates about the current and future fair values and performance of assets held by these VIEs and general market conditions.
The Company may change its original assessment of a VIE upon subsequent events such as the modification of contractual arrangements that affect the characteristics or adequacy of the entity’s equity investments at risk and the disposition of all or a portion of an interest held by the primary beneficiary. The Company performs this analysis on an ongoing basis.
Related Parties
The Company evaluates related parties pursuant to ASC 850, Related Party Disclosures (“ASC 850”). Related parties include VIE entities, shareholders of significant subsidiaries, key management personnel of the Company, and equity method investments held by the Company. Refer to Note 3 “Related Party Transactions” for further information.
Non-controlling interest
As described in Note 1 “General Information,” on October 8, 2025 the Company acquired a controlling financial interest in Intralot. In connection with the transaction, Bally’s International Interactive, a wholly owned subsidiary, was contributed to Intralot. As a result, the Company consolidates Intralot and its subsidiaries, including Bally’s International Interactive, and the equity interests in Intralot held by third parties are reflected as a noncontrolling interest in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Stockholders’ Equity. The non-controlling interest recognized at the Intralot Closing Date represents (i) the fair value of the equity interests in Intralot held by third parties, which is based on Intralot’s closing share price as of that date and (ii) the carrying value of the noncontrolling interests attributable to Bally’s International Interactive. As of March 31, 2026 (Successor), third parties held approximately 40.6% of the outstanding equity interests in Intralot. Net income attributable to non-controlling interest was $4.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 (Successor).
During the first quarter of 2025, Bally’s Chicago, Inc., a consolidated subsidiary of the Company, successfully completed a private placement, whereby shares of Class A-1, A-2, A-3 and A-4 were issued to third parties for total consideration of $12.4 million, net of $0.8 million of issuance costs. Additionally, on August 14, 2025 (Successor), Bally’s Chicago, Inc. completed its public offering and concurrent private placement, whereby additional shares of Class A-1, A-2, A-3 and A-4 were issued for total consideration of $5.8 million, net of $0.3 million of issuance costs. As of March 31, 2026 (Successor), the Company’s non-controlling interest in Bally’s Chicago, Inc. is 10.5%. Net loss attributable to non-controlling interest was $2.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 (Successor) and de minimis for the period from February 8, 2025 to March 31, 2025 (Successor).

Deferred Payables
In order to execute on its strategy of improving working capital efficiency, the Company will, from time to time, participate in trade finance or deferred payable initiatives, including programs that may securitize or accelerate liquidity realized from receivables, or alternatively extend trade terms with certain suppliers or vendors. In certain cases, where the Company is not able to extend payment terms directly with suppliers or vendors, the Company will consider deferred payable solutions that simulate such trade term extensions. These solutions generally involve entering into exchange agreements with intermediary institutions who will make payments to the supplier or vendor within the original terms on behalf of the Company, in exchange for a new bill with terms that conform to the Company’s payment policy of net 90 days. The Company will then pay the new bill to the intermediary institutions, inclusive of any embedded premium, which the Company records as Interest expense, net, within three months or less. Amounts outstanding under these deferred payable arrangements were $85.3 million and $47.0 million as of March 31, 2026 (Successor) and December 31, 2025 (Successor), respectively, and are included in Accrued and other current liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

- RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Disposition of Carved-Out Business
In 2024, the Company sold portions of its international interactive business in Asia and certain other international markets in its Bally’s Intralot B2C reportable segment (the “Carved-Out Business”) to a company (the “Buyer”) formed by members of management of the Carved-Out Business for total consideration of $32.9 million, which consisted of a €30.0 million seven-year term note, subject to applicable interest.
Additionally in connection with the disposition, the Company acquired penny warrants that represent a 19.99% fully diluted equity interest in the Carved-Out Business, for approximately $1.9 million, which as a result is an unconsolidated entity accounted for under the equity method and is considered to be a related party under ASC 850.
Ownership of certain intellectual property previously owned by Bally’s and used by the Carved-Out Business has been transferred into an independent trust (the “Trust”). The Trust licenses the use of such intellectual property to the Carved-Out Business under a commercial license arrangement, with licensing fees paid to the Trust by the Buyer for a term offive years (subject to annual automatic extension) based on net gaming revenues of the Carved-Out Business. Any proceeds generated from the Trust property are distributed to the Company by the Trust and are recognized as licensing revenue and included in Non-gaming revenue in the condensed consolidated statements of operations, as development of iGaming capabilities remains a core part of Bally’s strategy.

- RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
Standards Implemented
In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-05, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326). The amendments clarify guidance related to Topic 326 for current accounts receivable and current contract assets arising from transactions accounted for under Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, and allowing for a practical expedient that assumes that current conditions as of the balance sheet do not change for the remaining life of the asset. The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2025, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods, and was adopted on a prospective basis. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements and related disclosures.
Standards to Be Implemented

The amendments in this update align the requirements in the ASC to the SEC’s regulations. The effective date for each amended topic in the ASC is the date on which the SEC’s removal of the related disclosure requirement from Regulation S-X or Regulation S-K becomes effective. If by June 30, 2027, the SEC has not removed the related disclosure from its regulations, the amendments will be removed from the Codification and not become effective. Early adoption is prohibited. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of this amendment on its financial statements and related disclosures.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses.

In May 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-03, Business Combinations (Topic 805) and Consolidation (Topic 810): Determining the Accounting Acquirer in the Acquisition of a Variable Interest Entity. The amendments in this update revise the requirements for determining the accounting acquirer for a transaction effected primarily by exchanging equity interests in which the legal acquiree is a VIE that meets the definition of a business.

- REVENUE RECOGNITION
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which requires the revenue to be recognized when a performance obligation is satisfied by transferring the control of promised goods or services and is measured at the transaction price or the amount of consideration that the Company expects to receive through satisfaction of the identified performance obligations.
The Company generates revenue from six principal sources: (1) gaming (which includes retail gaming, online gaming, consumer lottery, sports betting and racing), (2) hotel, (3) food and beverage, (4) licensing, (5) technology services and (6) retail, entertainment and other.
Sales tax and other taxes collected on behalf of governmental authorities are accounted for on a net basis and are not included in revenue or operating expenses.
Gaming Revenue
Performance Obligations
Retail gaming service contracts involving our land-based casinos, each have an obligation to honor the outcome of a wager and to pay out an amount equal to the stated odds, including the return of the initial wager, if the customer receives a winning hand. These elements of honoring the outcome of the hand of play and generating a payout are considered one performance obligation, with an additional performance obligation for those customers earning incentives under the Company’s player loyalty program.
Online gaming and sports betting represent a single performance obligation for the Company to operate contests or games and award prizes or payouts to users based on results of the arrangement. Additionally, the use of incentives across the online gaming products create future customer rights and are a separate performance obligation.
Racing revenue is earned through advance deposit wagering, which consists of patrons wagering through an advance deposit account. Each wagering contract contains a single performance obligation.
Consumer lottery revenue is earned from jurisdictions where the Company has a license from the applicable government authority to operate games to provide game management services. Each consumer lottery contract contains a single performance obligation to stand ready to operate games and lotteries in the specific jurisdiction.
Transaction Price
The Company applies a practical expedient to account for its gaming contracts on a portfolio basis as such wagers have similar characteristics and the Company reasonably expects the impact on the consolidated financial statements of applying the revenue recognition guidance to the portfolio would not differ materially from the application of an individual wagering contract. The transaction price for a retail gaming, online gaming or sports betting wagering contract is the difference between wins and losses, not the total amount wagered. In addition, in the event of a multi-stage contest, the Company will allocate transaction price ratably from contest start to the contest’s final stage.
The transaction price for racing operations, inclusive of live racing events conducted at the Company’s racing facilities, is the commission received from the pari-mutuel pool less contractual fees and obligations, primarily consisting of purse funding requirements, simulcasting fees, tote fees and certain pari-mutuel taxes that are directly related to the racing operations.
For purposes of allocating the transaction price in a wagering contract between the wagering performance obligation and the obligation associated with incentives earned under loyalty programs, the Company allocates an amount to the loyalty program contract liability based on the stand-alone selling price of the incentive earned. The performance obligation related to loyalty program incentives are deferred and recognized as revenue upon redemption by the customer.
For certain consumer lottery contracts, payments to the applicable government authority for the license to operate are not considered consideration payable to a customer under ASC 606. Accordingly, such payments are recognized as operating expenses and are not presented as a reduction of revenue.
Revenue Recognition
The allocated revenue for retail gaming wagers is recognized when the wagering occurs as all such wagers settle immediately. Online gaming revenue is recognized at the point in time when the player completes a gaming session and payout occurs. Sports betting involves a player wagering money on an outcome or series of outcomes. If a player wins the wager, the Company pays the player a pre-determined amount known as fixed odds, and its revenue is recognized as total wagers net of payouts made and incentives awarded to players. Racing revenue includes several of our casinos and resorts’ share of wagering from live racing and the import of simulcast signals, and is recognized upon completion of the wager based upon an established take-out percentage. Consumer lottery revenue is recognized as tickets are sold and the variability is resolved.
Certain operations within the Company’s Casinos & Resorts and North America Interactive reportable segments act as an agent in operating gaming services on behalf of the state in which they are licensed. At these respective casino properties, gaming revenue is recognized when the wager is settled, which is when the customer has received the benefits of the Company’s gaming services and the Company has a present right to payment. The Company recorded revenue from its operations in these states on a net basis, which represents the percentage share entitled to the Company. Additionally, certain operations within the Company’s Bally’s Intralot B2C reportable segment act as an agent in providing virtual sports betting services on behalf of the applicable government authority. The Company collects wagers from players, remits net proceeds to the applicable government authority after payment of prizes, and retains a commission. As the Company does not control the underlying wagering activity, revenue is recognized on a net basis in an amount equal to the commission to which the Company is entitled. Revenue is recognized over time as wagering activity occurs and the outcome of the underlying bets is resolved.
Non-gaming Revenue
Performance Obligations
Hotel, food and beverage, licensing, and retail, entertainment and other services have been determined to be separate, stand-alone performance obligations and revenue is recognized as the good or service is transferred at the point in time of the transaction.
Technology services contracts involve the Company using its software to provide services related to customers’ lottery, VLT, and sports betting operations. The Company will also provide related hardware and support services. Technology services contracts can contain multiple performance obligations, including a performance obligation to stand ready to provide access to the software throughout the contract term and distinct performance obligations for sales of related hardware and implementation, customization, maintenance, and technical support services.
Transaction Price
The transaction price for hotel, food and beverage, licensing, and retail, entertainment and other, is the net amount collected from the customer for such goods and services or under the license agreement. The estimated standalone selling price of hotel rooms is determined based on observable prices. The standalone selling price of these goods and services are determined based upon the actual retail prices charged to customers for those items.
The transaction price for technology services contracts is primarily variable and is generally based on either (i) a monthly fee per enrolled machine, (ii) a percentage of gross revenue, or (iii) a percentage of net drop, which represents total amounts wagered less winnings and payouts to players.
Revenue Recognition
Hotel revenue is recognized when the customer obtains control through occupancy of the room over their stay at the hotel. Advance deposits for hotel rooms are recorded as liabilities until revenue recognition criteria are met. Food, beverage and retail revenues are recognized at the time the goods are sold from Company-operated outlets. Licensing revenue is recognized under the sales-and usage-based royalty exception available in ASC 606 for licenses of intellectual property whereby revenue is recognized in the period that the underlying sale or usage occurs as the fees due to the Company are contingent and based on the customer’s usage of the intellectual property. Technology services revenues from the use of the Company’s software to provide services to customers are recognized over time as the variability is resolved. Other revenue includes cancellation fees for hotel and meeting space services, which are recognized upon cancellation by the customer, and golf revenues from the Company’s operations of Bally’s Golf Links, which are recognized at the time of sale. Additionally, other revenue includes market access and business-to-business service revenue generated by the Bally’s Intralot B2B and North America Interactive reportable segments, which is recognized at the time the goods are sold or the service is provided, and are included in Non-gaming revenue within our condensed consolidated statements of operations.

- BUSINESS COMBINATIONS
Intralot Transaction
As described in Note 1 “General Information”, the Company completed the Intralot Transaction on October 8, 2025, with the Company obtaining a controlling financial interest in Intralot and retaining control of Bally’s International Interactive. The transaction with Intralot was accounted for as a business combination in accordance with ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations (“ASC 805”), with the Company as the accounting acquirer.
Intralot is a global gaming technology and services company that provides integrated lottery systems, sports betting solutions and interactive gaming platforms to state-licensed gaming operators worldwide. The Intralot Transaction expands the Company’s international gaming and technology footprint, enhances its digital and sports betting capabilities, and strengthens its position as a vertically integrated gaming and entertainment operator, which aligns with the Company’s broader strategic initiatives.
The preliminary fair value of the transaction consideration for the Company’s 57.9% interest in Intralot as of the Intralot Closing Date was approximately $1.6 billion, which represents the fair value of Intralot shares issued to the Company plus the Company’s pre-existing investment in Intralot of approximately $280.6 million as of the Intralot Closing Date. As disclosed in Note 2 “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” the Company’s previous investment in Intralot was accounted for as an equity method investment under the fair value option and was adjusted to fair value immediately prior to closing of the transaction.
The preliminary allocation of the purchase price is as follows:
| As of October 8, 2025 | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| (in thousands) | Preliminary as of October 8, 2025 | Year to Date Adjustments | Preliminary as of March 31, 2026 |
| Cash and cash equivalents | $2,054,955 | $— | $2,054,955 |
| Restricted cash | 41,341 | — | 41,341 |
| Other current assets | 143,403 | 4,130 | 147,533 |
| Property and equipment | 87,769 | (1,905) | 85,864 |
| Right of use assets | 20,486 | — | 20,486 |
| Intangible assets | 828,235 | 20,634 | 848,869 |
| Other assets | 39,349 | — | 39,349 |
| Total current liabilities | (150,097) | — | (150,097) |
| Lease liabilities | (18,211) | — | (18,211) |
| Long-term debt | (1,982,214) | — | (1,982,214) |
| Other long-term liabilities | (159,822) | (4,469) | (164,291) |
| Non-controlling interest | (1,063,664) | — | (1,063,664) |
| Goodwill | 1,763,226 | (18,390) | 1,744,836 |
| Total fair value of net assets acquired | $1,604,756 | $— | $1,604,756 |
The purchase consideration has been allocated to the tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon their preliminary estimated fair values as of the acquisition date, with the excess of the purchase consideration over the aggregate net fair values recorded as goodwill, which is not deductible for tax purposes. Qualitative factors that contribute to the recognition of goodwill include an organized workforce and expected synergies from future cost savings and revenue driven by the integration of Bally’s intellectual property into Intralot’s product offerings as well as cross selling product offerings of Intralot and Bally’s International Interactive into existing and new markets. Goodwill has been assigned to the segments expected to benefit from the transaction on a relative fair value basis, which includes $964.5 million and $780.4 million to the Bally’s Intralot B2B and Bally’s Intralot B2C segments, respectively. The Non-controlling interest was initially measured at its fair value based on the trading price of Intralot stock on the date of closing. Certain adjustments have been made to Intralot’s historical carrying values to conform accounting policies with the Company, including IFRS to GAAP conversion adjustments, with any such adjustments recorded to equity.
The Company recorded intangible assets based on estimates of fair value which consisted of the following (in thousands):
| Valuation Approach | Estimated Useful Life (in years) | Estimated Fair Value | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Developed technology | Relief from royalty method | 13 | $258,568 |
| Intralot trade name | Relief from royalty method | 13 | 61,390 |
| Customer relationships | Multi-period excess earnings method | 25 | 219,748 |
| Backlog | Multi-period excess earnings method | 8 | 309,163 |
| Total fair value of intangible assets | $848,869 | ||
The valuation of intangible assets was determined using an income approach methodology including the multi-period excess earnings method and the relief from royalty method. Level 3 inputs used in estimating future cash flows included terminal growth rates of 3%, a royalty rate of 1.5% for the Intralot trade name and 15.0% for other acquired intangibles, discount rates between 7.5% and 8.5%, and operating cash flows. The projected future cash flows are discounted to present value using an appropriate discount rate. As of March 31, 2026 (Successor), the Company is in the process of completing its valuation of tangible and intangible assets and the allocation of the purchase price to net assets, including the allocation of goodwill to reporting units, which will be completed once the valuation process has been finalized.
The Company incurred $6.6 million of transaction-related expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2026 (Successor) in connection with the transaction primarily related to legal and professional fees, which have been included within “General and administrative” in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Revenue and net loss of Intralot attributable to Bally’s of $95.2 million and $31.7 million, respectively, have been included within the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of income for the three months ended March 31, 2026 (Successor).
Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information
The following unaudited pro forma financial information is presented to illustrate the estimated effects of the transaction as if the transaction had occurred on January 1, 2024:
| (in thousands) | Three Months Ended March 31, 2025 |
|---|---|
| Pro forma revenue | $690,228 |
| Pro forma net loss | $(42,008) |
The pro forma amounts include the historical operating results of the Company and Intralot prior to the acquisition, with adjustments directly attributable to the transaction including amortization expense of intangible assets, debt amortization expense and interest expenses. The unaudited pro forma financial information is not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that actually would have been achieved had the transaction been consummated as of the dates indicated, nor is it indicative of any future results. In addition, the unaudited pro forma financial information does not reflect the expected realization of any synergies or cost savings associated with the transaction.
Merger with Queen Casino & Entertainment, Inc.
The Merger between the Company and Queen was accounted for as a transaction between entities under common control in accordance with ASC 805, in which the accounting acquirer (Parent and its affiliates) obtained control of the Company. The Company has elected to push down its Parent’s basis in its net assets into its financial statements, and as a result, the net assets of the Predecessor were measured and recognized at their fair values as of the acquisition date and were combined with those of Queen at Queen’s historical carrying amounts and are presented on a combined basis. The following disclosures relate to the Company’s election to apply push down and show the effect of the change in control.
The fair value of the Merger consideration was $955.6 million, which represents 52,364,192 total shares outstanding prior to the Merger multiplied by the Merger value of $18.25 per share. Immediately following the transaction, the Company repurchased 22,804,384 shares at a price of $18.25 for total a total repurchase price of $416.2 million.
The final allocation of the purchase price is as follows:
| (in thousands) | As of February 7, 2025 |
|---|---|
| Cash and cash equivalents | $173,550 |
| Restricted cash | 57,352 |
| Other current assets | 210,447 |
| Property and equipment | 1,060,741 |
| Right of use assets | 1,709,561 |
| Goodwill | 1,611,192 |

| Other assets | 120,887 |
| Total current liabilities | (567,902) |
| Lease liabilities | (1,840,368) |
| Long-term debt | (2,914,688) |
| Other long-term liabilities | (484,546) |
| Net assets acquired | $955,647 |
The purchase consideration has been allocated to the tangible and identifiable intangible assets and liabilities based upon their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date, with the excess of the purchase consideration over the aggregate net fair values recorded as goodwill, which is not deductible for tax purposes. Accounts receivable, other assets, current liabilities and inventories were stated at their historical carrying value, which approximates fair value given the short-term nature of these assets and liabilities. The estimate of fair value for property and equipment and owned real property was based on an assessment of the assets’ condition as well as an evaluation of the current market value of such assets. The fair value of leasehold interests were estimated based on evaluating contractual rent payments relative to market rent giving consideration to the Company’s capitalization rates and rent coverage ratios, under the income method or by estimating the fee simple value and estimated rate of return, depending on the nature of the underlying leasehold interest. In connection with remeasuring the Company’s lease liabilities, unfavorable off-market components of $130.8 million were recognized as a decrease to the Company’s right of use assets, and will be amortized as a reduction of lease expense on a straight line basis over the remaining lease term.
The Company recorded intangible assets based on estimates of fair value which consisted of the following:
| Valuation Approach | Estimated Useful Life (in years) | Estimated Fair Value | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Gaming licenses | Greenfield/Replacement Cost method | 2-18 | $716,998 |
| Customer relationships | Multi-Period Excess Earnings/Replacement Cost method | 1-7 | 348,034 |
| Developed technology | Relief from royalty method | 5 | 252,700 |
| Trade names | Relief from royalty method | 12 | 74,600 |
| Intellectual property license | Relief from royalty method | 7 | 141,000 |
| Other amortizing intangibles | Various methods | 1-22 | 8,089 |
| Indefinite lived trade name | Relief from royalty method | Indefinite | 278,000 |
| Total fair value of intangible assets | $1,819,421 | ||
The valuation of intangible assets was determined using income approach methodologies including the Greenfield method, multi-period excess earnings method, relief from royalty method, and the replacement cost method. Level 3 inputs used in estimating future cash flows included terminal growth rates of 3%, royalty rates between 2% and 19%, discount rates between 11% and 15%, operating cash flows, estimated construction costs, and pre-opening expenses, among others. The projected future cash flows are discounted to present value using an appropriate discount rate. As of December 31, 2025 (Successor), the Company has finalized its valuation of tangible and intangible assets and the allocation of the purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed.
The Company incurred $2.1 million, $15.9 million and $11.2 million of transaction related expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2026 (Successor), the period from February 8, 2025 to March 31, 2025 (Successor) and the period from January 1, 2025 to February 7, 2025 (Predecessor), respectively.

- DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS
The Company utilizes derivative instruments in order to mitigate interest rate and currency exchange rate risk in accordance with its financial risk and liability management policy.
During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company entered into a series of interest rate contracts and cross currency swap derivative transactions with multiple bank counterparties in order to synthetically convert a notional aggregate amount of $500.0 million of the Company’s USD denominated variable rate Term Loan Facility, as disclosed in Note 14 “Long-Term Debt,” into fixed rate debt over five years and $200.0 million of the Term Loan Facility, to an equivalent GBP denominated floating rate instrument over three years. These contracts mature in October, 2028 and 2026, respectively.
Additionally, during the year ended December 31, 2024 the Company entered into a series of interest rate contracts in a notional aggregate amount of $1.00 billion, to further manage the Company’s exposure to interest rate movements associated with the Company’s variable rate Term Loan Facility through its synthetic conversion to fixed rate debt. The tenor of these contracts were matched with the maturity of the Term Loan Facility tranche maturing on October 1, 2028.
Cross Currency Swaps

Cash Flow Hedges
Interest Rate Contracts - The Company’s objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to hedge its exposure to variability in cash flows on a portion of its floating-rate debt, to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish these objectives, the Company primarily uses interest rate swaps and collars as part of its financial risk and liability management policy. The Company’s interest rate swaps and collars were designated as cash flow hedges under ASC 815.
Economic Hedges - During the three months ended March 31, 2026 (Successor), as a result of the paydown of the Term Loan Facility and issuance of the 2026 Term Loan Credit Facility, the Company de-designated its Interest Rate Contracts as cash flow hedges and began recording changes in fair value of the derivative and the accrual of interest rate movements through earnings reported in Other non-operating income (expense), net in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. At the time of de-designation, amounts in Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) were frozen and will be amortized through Interest expense, net through the maturity date of the Interest Rate Contracts. In addition, as a result of the lower principal of the 2026 Term Loan Credit Facility compared to the notional amounts of the Interest Rate Contracts, a pro-rata amount of accumulated other comprehensive loss of was recorded in Other non-operating expense, net in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
As of March 31, 2026 (Successor) and December 31, 2025 (Successor), the notional value of the Company’s interest rate contracts was $1.5 billion. Refer to Note 12 “Fair Value Measurements” for further information.

Derivative Instruments
The fair values of interest rate contracts and cross currency swap assets and liabilities are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy as the valuation inputs are based on estimates using currency spot and forward rates and standard pricing models that consider the value of future cash flows as of the balance sheet date, discounted to a present value using discount factors that match both the time to maturity and currency of the underlying instruments. These standard pricing models utilize inputs that are derived from or corroborated by observable market data such as interest rate yield curves as well as currency spot and forward rates. When designated as hedging instruments, changes in the fair value of these contracts are reported as a component of other comprehensive income (loss). When not designated as hedging instruments, changes in fair value of these contracts are reported within Other non-operating income (expense), net in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Sinclair Performance Warrants
Sinclair Performance Warrants were accounted for as a derivative instrument classified as a liability within Level 3 of the hierarchy through February 7, 2025 (Predecessor) as the warrants are not traded in active markets and are subject to certain assumptions and estimates made by management related to the probability of meeting performance milestones. These assumptions and the probability of meeting performance targets may have a significant impact on the value of the warrant. The Performance Warrants were valued using an option pricing model, considering the Company’s estimated probabilities of achieving the performance milestones for each tranche. Inputs to this valuation approach include volatility between 40% and 67%, risk free rates between 3.84% and 4.79%, the Company’s common stock price for each period and expected terms between 1.5 and 6.3 years. In connection with the Queen Merger, as of February 7, 2025, all outstanding Performance Warrants became immediately exercisable at a price of $0.01 per share and were reclassified out of liabilities and into equity and are no longer measured at fair value.
Contingent Consideration
In connection with the acquisition of Bally’s Golf Links on September 12, 2023 (Predecessor), the purchase price included future cash payments totaling up to $125 million to the seller, based upon future events, which were uncertain at the time of acquisition. The Company recorded contingent consideration at fair value as a liability on the acquisition date, which was subsequently remeasured at each reporting date within “Other, non-operating expenses, net” in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The contingent consideration was valued at $8.9 million and $123.9 million as of March 31, 2026 (Successor) and December 31, 2025 (Successor), respectively. Level 3 inputs to this valuation approach included the Company’s estimated probabilities of achieving the conditions for payment, expected terms between 1.5 and 3 years, and discount rates between 7.2% and 7.8%. During the three months ended March 31, 2026 (Successor), the contingency related to $115 million of the $125 million total payments was resolved and paid.
Investment in GLPI Partnership
The Company holds a limited partnership interest in GLP Capital, L.P., the operating partnership of GLPI. The investment is reported at fair value based on Level 2 inputs, with changes to fair value included within Other non-operating expense, net of the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Long-Term Debt
The fair value of the Company’s Term Loan Facility and senior notes are estimated based on quoted prices in active markets and are classified as Level 1 measurements. The fair value of the Revolving Credit Facility approximates its carrying amount as it is revolving, variable rate debt, and is also classified as a Level 1 measurement. In the table below, the carrying amounts of the Company’s long-term debt are net of debt issuance costs, debt discounts and fair value adjustments.
