NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

 

1.    OVERVIEW AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Business – Canterbury Park Holding Corporation’s (the “Company,” “we,” “our,” or “us”) Racetrack operations are conducted at facilities located in Shakopee, Minnesota, approximately 25 miles southwest of downtown Minneapolis. In May 1994, the Company commenced year-round horse racing simulcast operations and hosted the first annual live race meet during the summer of 1995. The Company’s live racing operations are a seasonal business as it typically hosts live race meets each year from May until September. The Company earns additional pari-mutuel revenue by televising its live racing to out-of-state racetracks around the country. Canterbury Park’s Card Casino typically operates 24 hours a day, seven days a week and is limited by Minnesota State law to conducting card play on a maximum of 80 tables. The Card Casino currently offers a variety of poker and table games. The Company’s three largest sources of revenues are from Card Casino operations, pari-mutuel operations, and food and beverage sales. The Company also derives revenues from related services and activities, such as admissions, advertising signage, publication sales, and from other entertainment events and activities held at the Racetrack. Additionally, the Company is developing underutilized land surrounding the Racetrack in a project known as Canterbury Commons™, with approximately 140 acres originally designated as underutilized. The Company is pursuing several mixed-use development opportunities for this land, directly and through joint ventures.

 

Basis of Presentation and Preparation – The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company (Canterbury Park Holding Corporation and its direct and indirect subsidiaries Canterbury Park Entertainment, LLC; Canterbury Park Concessions, Inc.; and Canterbury Development, LLC). Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in these condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

 

These condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes should be read in conjunction with the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K (the “2021 Form 10-K”).

 

The condensed consolidated balance sheets and the related condensed consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity, and the cash flows for the periods ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 have been prepared by Company management. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments, except where noted) necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, statement of stockholders’ equity, and cash flows at June 30, 2022 and 2021 and for the periods then ended have been made.

 

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies A detailed description of our significant accounting policies can be found in our most recent Annual Report on the 2021 Form 10-K. There were no material changes in significant accounting policies during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022.

 

Reclassifications - Certain amounts in prior period financial statements have been reclassified to conform to current period presentations. 

 

Restricted Cash – Restricted cash represents refundable deposits and amounts due to horsemen for purses, stakes and awards, and amounts accumulated in card game progressive jackpot pools, the player pool and poker promotional fund to be used to repay card players in the form of promotions, giveaways, prizes, or by other means. 

 

Employee Retention Credit ("ERC") – The Company qualified for federal government assistance through ERC provisions of the CARES Act passed in 2020, for the 2020 second, third, and fourth quarters, as well as the 2021 first and second quarters. The purpose of the ERC is to encourage employers to keep employees on the payroll, even if they are not working during the covered period because of the coronavirus outbreak. We recognize amounts to be refundable as tax credits if there is a reasonable assurance of compliance with grant conditions and receipt of credits. As of June 30, 2022, the Company's expected one-time refunds totaling $6,103,236, are included on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as an employee retention credit receivable. The Company recorded this amount on the Consolidated Statements of Operations as a credit to salaries and benefits expense in the 2021 fourth quarter.

Deferred Revenue – Deferred revenue includes advance sales related to racing, events and corporate partnerships. Revenue from these advance billings is recognized when the related event occurs or services have been performed. Deferred revenue also includes advanced Cooperative Marketing Agreement (“CMA”) promotional funds, for which revenue is recognized when expenses are incurred.

 

Payable to Horsepersons - The Minnesota Pari-mutuel Horse Racing Act requires the Company to segregate a portion of funds (recorded as purse expense in the statements of operations) received from Card Casino operations and wagering on simulcast and live horse races, for future payment as purses for live horse races or other uses of the horsepersons’ association. Pursuant to an agreement with the Minnesota Horsemen’s Benevolent and Protective Association (“MHBPA”), the Company transferred into a trust account or paid directly to the MHBPA, $2,352,000 and $4,226,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, related to thoroughbred races. Minnesota Statutes provide that amounts transferred into the trust account are the property of the trust and not of the Company, and therefore these amounts are not recorded on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.

 

Revenue Recognition – The Company’s primary revenues with customers consist of Card Casino operations, pari-mutuel wagering on simulcast and live horse races, and food and beverage transactions. We determine revenue recognition through the following steps:

 

 

Identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer

 

Identification of the performance obligations in the contract

 

Determination of the transaction price

 

Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligation in the contract

 

Recognition of revenue when, or as, we satisfy a performance obligation

 

The transaction price for a Card Casino contract is a set percentage of wagers and is recognized at the time that the wagering process is complete. The transaction price for pari-mutuel wagering is the commission received on a wager, exclusive of any track fees and is recognized upon occurrence of the live race that is presented for wagering and after that live race is made official by the respective state’s racing regulatory body. The transaction price for food and beverage contracts is the net amount collected from the customer for these goods. Food and beverage services have been determined to be separate, stand-alone performance obligations and the transaction price is recorded as revenue as the good is transferred to the customer when delivery is made.

 

Contracts for Card Casino operations and pari-mutuel wagering involve two performance obligations for those customers earning points under the Company’s loyalty program and a single performance obligation for customers who do not participate in the program. The Company applies a practical expedient by accounting for its gaming contracts on a portfolio basis as these wagers have similar characteristics and the Company reasonably expects the effects on the financial statements of applying the revenue recognition guidance to the portfolio would not differ materially from what would result if the guidance were applied on an individual wagering contract. For purposes of allocating the transaction price in a wagering contract between the wagering performance obligation and the obligation associated with the loyalty points earned, the Company allocates an amount to the loyalty point contract liability based on the stand-alone redemption value of the points earned, which is determined by the value of a point that can be redeemed for a cash voucher, food and beverage voucher, racing admission, valet parking, or racing forms. Based on past experience, the majority of customers redeem their points for cash vouchers. Therefore, there are no further performance obligations by the Company.

 

We have two general types of liabilities related to contracts with customers: (1) our MVP Loyalty Program and (2) outstanding chip liability. These are included in the line item Card Casino accruals on the consolidated balance sheet. We defer the full retail value of these complimentary reward items until the future revenue transaction occurs.

 

The Company offers certain promotional allowances at no charge to patrons who participate in its player rewards program.

 

We evaluate our on-track revenue, export revenue (as described below), and import revenue (as described below) contracts to determine whether we are acting as the principal or as the agent when providing services, to determine if we should report revenue on a gross or net basis. An entity acts as a principal if it controls a specified service before that service is transferred to a customer.

 

8

 
 

For on-track revenue and “import revenue,” that is revenue we generate for racing held elsewhere that our patrons wager on, we are entitled to retain a commission for providing a wagering service to our customers. For these arrangements, we are the principal because we control the wagering service; therefore, any charges, including simulcast fees, we incur for delivering the wagering service are presented as operating expenses.

 

For “export revenue,” when the wagering occurs outside our premises, our customer is the third-party wagering site such as a racetrack, Off Track Betting (“OTB”), or advance deposit wagering (“ADW”) provider. Therefore, the revenue we recognize for export revenue is the simulcast host fee we earn for exporting our racing signal to the third-party wagering site.

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company recorded as other revenue $515,000 of COVID-19 relief grants, including a lump sum grant of $500,000 from the Convention Center Relief Grant Program, which is overseen by the Minnesota Department of Employment and Economic Development. There were no grants received in the six months ended June 30, 2022.

 

2.    STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

 

Long Term Incentive Plan and Award of Deferred Stock

 

The Long Term Incentive Plan (the “LTI Plan”) authorizes the grant of Long Term Incentive Awards that provide an opportunity to Named Executive Officers (“NEOs”) and other Senior Executives to receive a payment in cash or shares of the Company’s common stock to the extent of achievement at the end of a period greater than one year (the “Performance Period”) as compared to Performance Goals established at the beginning of the Performance Period. Currently, there are no awards outstanding as of June 30, 2022. Beginning in 2020, and as a result of the COVID-19 Pandemic, the Company temporarily suspended the granting of performance awards under its LTI Plan, and instead granted deferred stock awards designed to retain NEOs and other Senior Executives in lieu of LTI Plan awards for 2020, 2021 and 2022. 

 

Board of Directors Stock Option, Deferred Stock Awards, and Restricted Stock Grants

 

The Company’s Stock Plan currently authorizes annual grants of restricted stock, deferred stock, stock options, or any combination of the three, to non-employee members of the Board of Directors at the time of the Company’s annual shareholders’ meeting as determined by the Board prior to each such meeting. Deferred stock awards represent the right to receive shares of the Company's common stock upon vesting. Options granted under the Plan generally expire 10 years after the grant date. Restricted stock and deferred stock grants to non-employee directors generally vest 100% one year after the date of the annual meeting at which they were granted, are subject to restrictions on resale for an additional year, and are subject to forfeiture if a board member terminates his or her board service prior to the shares vesting. The unvested deferred stock awards outstanding as of June 30, 2022 to our non-employee directors consisted of 5,512 shares with a weighted average fair value per share of $21.76. There were no unvested restricted stock or stock options outstanding at June 30, 2022.

 

Employee Deferred Stock Awards

 

The Company's Stock Plan permits its Compensation Committee to grant stock-based awards, including deferred stock awards, to key employees and non-employee directors. The Company has made deferred stock grants that vest over one to four years. 

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company granted employees deferred stock awards totaling 18,600 shares of common stock, with a vesting term of approximately four years and a fair value of $21.62 per share. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company granted employees deferred stock awards totaling 27,900 shares of common stock, with a vesting term of approximately three years and a fair value of $13.33 per share.

At June 30, 2022, there was approximately $654,000 of total unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to unvested employee and board of director deferred stock awards that is expected to be recognized over a period of approximately 3.7 years.

The Company has a general credit and security agreement with a financial institution, which provides a revolving credit line up to $10,000,000 and allows for letters of credit in the aggregate amount of up to $2,000,000 to be issued under the credit agreement. The line of credit is collateralized by all receivables, inventory, equipment, and general intangibles of the Company. The line of credit also includes collateral in the form of a Mortgage, Security Agreement, Fixture Financing Statement and Assignment of Leases and Rents. The maturity date of the revolving line of credit is January 31, 2024. As of June 30, 2022, the outstanding balance on the line of credit was $0.

5.    OPERATING SEGMENTS

 

The Company has four reportable operating segments: horse racing, Card Casino, food and beverage, and development. The horse racing segment primarily represents simulcast and live horse racing operations. The Card Casino segment represents operations of Canterbury Park’s Card Casino. The food and beverage segment represents food and beverage operations provided during simulcast and live racing, in the Card Casino, and during special events. The development segment represents our real estate development operations. The Company’s reportable operating segments are strategic business units that offer different products and services. They are managed separately because the segments differ in the nature of the products and services provided as well as process to produce those products and services. The Minnesota Racing Commission regulates the horse racing and Card Casino segments.

 

Depreciation, interest, and income taxes are allocated to the segments, but no allocation is made to the food and beverage segment for shared facilities. However, the food and beverage segment pays approximately 25% of gross revenues earned on live racing and special event days to the horse racing segment for use of the facilities. Starting in 2020, the food and beverage segment has not paid a commission to the horse racing segment subsequent to the Company's first temporary shutdown of operations starting March 16, 2020.

6.    COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

The Company entered into a Cooperative Marketing Agreement (the “CMA”) with the Shakopee Mdewakanton Sioux Community (“SMSC”), which became effective March 4, 2012, was amended in the first quarter of each of 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, and in June 2020 (as described below in Note 7) and is scheduled to terminate on December 31, 2022. The CMA contains certain covenants that, if breached, would trigger an obligation to repay a specified amount related to such covenant. At this time, management believes it unlikely that any breach of a covenant will occur, and that therefore the possibility that the Company will be required to pay the specified amount related to any covenant breach is remote.

 

Effective on  December 21, 2021, the Company entered into a Contribution and Indemnity Agreement ("Indemnity Agreement") with affiliates of Doran Companies ("Doran") in connection with the debt refinancing on the Doran Canterbury I, LLC joint venture. Under the Indemnity Agreement, the Company is obligated to indemnify Doran for loan payment amounts up to $5,000,000 only if the lender demands the loan guarantee by Doran.

 

The Company is periodically involved in various claims and legal actions arising in the normal course of business. Management believes that the resolution of any pending claims and legal actions at June 30, 2022 and as of the date of this report, will not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial positions or results of operations.

 

In August 2018, the Company entered into a Contract for Private Redevelopment with the City of Shakopee in connection with a Tax Increment Financing District (“TIF District”). On January 25, 2022, the Company received the fully executed First Amendment to the Contract for Redevelopment among the Master Developer, the City and the Authority, which is effective as of September 7, 2021. Under this contract, the Company is obligated to construct certain infrastructure improvements within the TIF District, and will be reimbursed for the cost of TIF eligible improvements by the City of Shakopee by future tax increment revenue generated from the developed property, up to specified maximum amounts. The total amount of funding that Canterbury will be paid as reimbursement under the TIF program for these improvements is not guaranteed and will depend on future tax revenues generated from the developed property.

7.    COOPERATIVE MARKETING AGREEMENT

 

As discussed above in Note 6, on March 4, 2012, the Company entered into the CMA with the SMSC. The primary purpose of the CMA is to increase purses paid during live horse racing at Canterbury Park’s Racetrack in order to strengthen Minnesota’s thoroughbred and quarter horse industry. Under the CMA, as amended, this is achieved through “Purse Enhancement Payments to Horsemen” paid directly to the MHBPA. These payments have no direct impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements or operations.

 

Under the CMA, as amended, SMSC also agreed to make “Marketing Payments” to the Company relating to joint marketing efforts for the mutual benefit of the Company and SMSC, including signage, joint promotions, player benefits, and events.

 

As noted above and affirmed in the Fifth Amendment, SMSC is obligated to make an annual purse enhancement of $7,380,000 and annual marketing payment of $1,620,000 for 2022. 

 

The amounts earned from the marketing payments are recorded as a component of other revenue and the related expenses are recorded as a component of advertising and marketing expense and depreciation in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company recorded $675,000 and $787,000 in other revenue, incurred $621,000, and $687,000 in advertising and marketing expense, and incurred $54,000 and $100,000 in depreciation related to the SMSC marketing funds. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company recorded $366,000 and $413,000 in other revenue, incurred $342,000, and $365,000 in advertising and marketing expense, and incurred $24,000 and $48,000 in depreciation related to the SMSC marketing funds.

 

Under the CMA, the Company agreed for the term of the CMA, which is currently scheduled to terminate on December 31, 2022, that it would not promote or lobby the Minnesota legislature for expanded gambling authority and will support the SMSC’s lobbying efforts against expanding gambling authority.

8.    REAL ESTATE DEVELOPMENT

 

Equity Investments

 

Doran Canterbury I, LLC 

 

On April 2, 2018, the Company’s subsidiary Canterbury Development LLC, entered into an Operating Agreement (“Operating Agreement”) with an affiliate of Doran Companies (“Doran”), a national commercial and residential real estate developer, as the two members of a Minnesota limited liability company named Doran Canterbury I, LLC (“Doran Canterbury I”). Doran Canterbury I was formed as part of a joint venture between Doran and Canterbury Development LLC to construct an upscale apartment complex on land adjacent to the Company’s Racetrack (the “Project”). Doran Canterbury I has completed developing Phase I of the Project, which includes 321 units, a heated parking ramp, and a clubhouse.

 

On September 27, 2018, Canterbury Development LLC contributed approximately 13 acres of land as its equity contribution in the Doran Canterbury I joint venture and became a 27.4% equity member. On December 20, 2018, financing for Doran Canterbury I was secured. As the Company is able to assert significant influence, but not control, over Doran Canterbury I’s operational and financial policies, the Company accounts for the joint venture as an equity method investment. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company recorded $497,000 and $1,012,000, respectively, in loss on equity method investments related to this joint venture. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company recorded $639,000 and $1,286,000, respectively, in loss on equity method investments related to this joint venture. In accordance with U.S. GAAP, since we are committed to provide future capital contributions to Doran Canterbury I, we also present as a liability in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets the net balance recorded for our share of Doran Canterbury I's losses in excess of the amount funded into Doran Canterbury I, which was $2,217,000 and $1,205,000 at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. 

 

Doran Canterbury II, LLC 

 

In connection with the execution of the Amended Doran Canterbury I Agreement, on August 18, 2018, Canterbury Development LLC entered into an Operating Agreement with Doran Shakopee, LLC as the two members of a Minnesota limited liability company entitled Doran Canterbury II, LLC (“Doran Canterbury II”). Under the Doran Canterbury II Operating Agreement, Doran Canterbury II will pursue development of Phase II of the Project. Phase II will include an additional 300 apartment units. Canterbury Development’s equity contribution to Doran Canterbury II for Phase II was approximately 10 acres of land, which were contributed to Doran Canterbury II on July 30, 2020. In connection with its contribution, Canterbury Development became a 27.4% equity member in Doran Canterbury II with Doran owning the remaining 72.6%. As the Company is able to assert significant influence, but not control, over Doran Canterbury II’s operational and financial policies, the Company accounts for the joint venture as an equity method investment. As of June 30, 2022, the proportionate share of Doran Canterbury II's earnings was immaterial. During the three and sixth months ended June 30, 2022, the Company contributed approximately $58,000 and $398,000 as an equity investment contribution in Doran Canterbury II. 

 

Canterbury DBSV Development, LLC

 

On June 16, 2020, Canterbury Development LLC, entered into an Operating Agreement with an affiliate of Greystone Construction, as the two members of a Minnesota limited liability company named Canterbury DBSV Development, LLC ("Canterbury DBSV"). Canterbury DBSV was formed as part of a joint venture between Greystone and Canterbury Development LLC for a multi-use development on the 13-acre land parcel located on the southwest portion of the Company’s racetrack. Canterbury Development LLC's equity contribution to Canterbury DBSV was approximately 13 acres of land, which were contributed to Canterbury DBSV on July 1, 2020. In connection with its contribution, Canterbury Development became a 61.87% equity member in Canterbury DBSV. As the Company is able to assert significant influence, but not control, over Canterbury DBSV’s operational and financial policies, the Company accounts for the joint venture as an equity method investment. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company recorded a loss of $37,000 and income of $239,000, respectively, on equity investment related to this joint venture.

Tax Increment Financing

 

On August 8, 2018, the City Council of the City of Shakopee, Minnesota approved a Contract for Private Redevelopment (“Redevelopment Agreement”) between the City of Shakopee Economic Development Authority (“Shakopee EDA”) and Canterbury Park Holding Corporation and its subsidiary Canterbury Development LLC in connection with a Tax Increment Financing District (“TIF District”) that the City had approved in April 2018. The City of Shakopee, the Shakopee EDA and the Company entered into the Redevelopment Agreement on August 10, 2018.

 

Under the Original Agreement, the Company agreed to undertake a number of specific infrastructure improvements within the TIF District, and the City agreed that a portion of the tax revenue generated from the developed property will be paid to the Company to reimburse it for its expense in constructing these improvements. Under the Original Agreement, the total estimated cost of TIF eligible improvements to be borne by the Company was $23,336,500.

 

On  January 25, 2022, the Company received the fully executed First Amendment to the Contract for Private Redevelopment (the “First Amendment”) among the Company, the City of Shakopee, and the Shakopee EDA, which is effective as of  September 7, 2021. Under the First Amendment and as part of the authorized changes regarding the responsibilities of the Company and the City, improvements on Unbridled Avenue will be primarily constructed by the City of Shakopee. As a result, the total estimated cost of TIF eligible improvements to be borne by the Company will be reduced by $5,744,000 to an amount not to exceed $17,592,881. In order to reimburse the Company for the qualified costs related to constructing the developer improvements, the Authority will issue and the Company will receive a TIF Note in the maximum principal amount of $17,592,881. The First Amendment also memorialized that the Company completed the Shenandoah Drive improvements as required prior to  December 31, 2019. The City is obligated to issue bonds to finance the portion of the improvements required to be constructed by the City. 

 

A detailed Schedule of the Public Improvements under the First Amendment, the timeline for their construction and the source and amount of funding is set forth in Exhibit 10.1 of the Form 8-K filed on  January 31, 2022. The Company expects to substantially complete the remaining Developer Improvements by  July 17, 2027 and will be reimbursed for costs of the Developer Improvements incurred by no later than  July 17, 2027. The total amount of funding that the Company will be paid as reimbursement under the TIF program for these improvements is not guaranteed, however, and will depend in part on future tax revenues generated from the developed property.

 

As of June 30, 2022, the Company recorded a TIF receivable of approximately $12,835,000, which represents $11,180,000 of principal and $1,655,000 of interest. Management believes future tax revenues generated from current development activity will exceed the Company's development costs and thus, management believes no allowance related to this receivable is necessary. As of December 31, 2021, the Company recorded a TIF receivable of approximately $12,503,000, which represented $11,180,000 of principal and $1,323,000 of interest. 

 

The Company expects to finance its improvements under the Redevelopment Agreement with funds from its current operating resources and existing credit facility and, potentially, third-party financing sources.

On April 7, 2020, the Company entered into an agreement to sell approximately 11.3 acres of land on the west side of the Racetrack to a third party for total consideration of approximately $2,400,000. The Company closed on the first phase of this transaction in April 2021, which totaled approximately 7.4 acres of land for proceeds of approximately $1,200,000. On May 20, 2022, the Company closed on the second phase of this transaction, which totaled approximately 4 acres of land for proceeds of approximately $1,200,000.

 

9.    LEASES

 

The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease or contains a lease at inception. The Company leases some office equipment under finance leases. We also lease equipment related to our horse racing operations under operating leases. For lease accounting purposes, we do not separate lease and nonlease components, nor do we record operating or finance lease assets and liabilities for short term leases.

 

15

 
 

As our leases do not provide an implicit rate, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date to determine the present value of lease payments. We recognize expense for operating leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any variable lease payments, material residual value guarantees or any restrictive covenants.

 

Lease costs related to operating leases were $9,052 and $8,998 for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021. The total lease expenses for leases with a term of twelve months or less for which the Company elected not to recognize a lease asset or liability was $218,106 and $191,074 for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

 

Lease costs included in depreciation and amortization related to our finance leases were $12,468 and $11,898 for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Interest expense related to our finance leases was immaterial.

In 2019, 2020, 2021, and through the first six months of 2022, the Company loaned money to the Doran Canterbury I and II joint ventures in member loans totaling approximately $2,096,000. These member loans bear interest at the rate equal to the Prime Rate plus two percent per annum and accrued interest totaled $187,000 as of June 30, 2022.

ITEM 2:    MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) is intended to help the reader understand Canterbury Park Holding Corporation, our operations, our financial results and financial condition and our present business environment. This MD&A is provided as a supplement to, and should be read in conjunction with, our condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes to the financial statements (the “Notes”).

 

Overview:

 

Canterbury Park Holding Corporation (the “Company,” “we,” “our,” or “us”) conducts pari-mutuel wagering operations and hosts “unbanked” card games at its Canterbury Park Racetrack and Card Casino facility (the “Racetrack”) in Shakopee, Minnesota, which is approximately 25 miles southwest of downtown Minneapolis. The Racetrack is the only facility in the State of Minnesota that offers live pari-mutuel thoroughbred and quarter horse racing.

 

The Company’s pari-mutuel wagering operations include both wagering on thoroughbred and quarter horse races during live meets at the Racetrack each year from May through September, and year-round wagering on races held at out-of-state racetracks that are televised simultaneously at the Racetrack (“simulcasting”). Unbanked card games, in which patrons compete against each other, are hosted in the Card Casino at the Racetrack. The Card Casino typically operates 24 hours a day, seven days a week. The Card Casino offers both poker and table games at up to 80 tables. The Company also derives revenues from related services and activities, such as concessions, parking, advertising signage, publication sales, and from other entertainment events and activities held at the Racetrack.

 

COVID-19 Pandemic:

 

In January 2020, an outbreak of a respiratory illness caused by a new strain of coronavirus was identified. The disease has since spread rapidly across the world, causing the World Health Organization to declare the outbreak a pandemic (the “COVID-19 Pandemic”) on March 12, 2020. Since that time, governments and businesses have taken measures to limit the impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic, including the issuance of shelter-in-place orders, social distancing measures, travel bans and restrictions, and business shutdowns.

 

As a result of the COVID-19 Pandemic, the Company temporary suspended all Card Casino, simulcast, food and beverage, and special events operations at Canterbury Park from March 16, 2020 through June 9, 2020 and from November 21, 2020 through January 10, 2021. Canterbury Park re-opened on January 11, 2021 with a capacity limitation of 150 guests per designated area; the capacity limitation was subsequently increased on February 13, 2021 to 250 guests per designated area.

 

In connection with reopening our pari-mutuel, food and beverage, and Card Casino operations, we adhered to social distancing requirements, which included reduced seating at table games and poker and capacity limitations to follow Minnesota state guidelines. Effective May 28, 2021, all capacity limits, restrictions on large gatherings, and other restrictions, which had been implemented in response to the impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic, were lifted and our Racetrack began operating operated under pre-pandemic guidelines. Our Card Casino also began operating without capacity restrictions effective May 28, 2021, but we maintained and intend to maintain certain operational changes and improvements initiated in 2020 in response to the COVID-19 Pandemic.

 

The disruptions arising from the COVID-19 Pandemic had a negative impact on the Company's financial condition and operations for the first half of 2021. However, the Company's revenues began to recover starting in the 2021 second quarter. The strong recovery we experienced in 2021 was a result of increased consumer confidence, reduction in capacity restrictions, and faster than anticipated vaccine roll-outs, as well as the success of initiatives begun during the COVID-19 Pandemic to increase attendance at live racing and other events, enhance the player experience, and recruit higher value players. Although the Company has currently appeared to recover from the effects of the COVID-19 Pandemic, the pandemic has caused other global issues that could have a future adverse effect on the Company. Specifically, these issues relate to supply chain issues and labor shortages, which have had some negative impact on our business and may continue to have an impact in the near future. Additionally, the spread of any new COVID-19 variants has had and may in the future have an adverse effect on the Company's financial condition and results. As the impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on the economy and our operations evolves, we will continue to assess the impact on the Company and respond accordingly.

Operations Review for the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2022:

 

Revenues:

 

Total net revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2022 were $17,774,000, an increase of $1,902,000, or 12.0%, compared to total net revenues of $15,872,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2021. Total net revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2022 were $31,412,000, an increase of $6,315,000, or 25.2%, compared to total net revenues of $25,097,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase consists of increases in pari-mutuel, Card Casino, food and beverage, and other revenues as a result of increased visitation as COVID-19 Pandemic restrictions have been lifted, and social distancing measures and operating capacity limitations have ceased. See below for a further discussion of our sources of revenues.

The primary source of Card Casino revenue is a percentage of the wagers received from players as compensation for providing the Card Casino facility and services, which is referred to as “collection revenue.” Other Poker Revenue and Other Table Games Revenue presented above includes fees collected for the administration of tournaments and the poker jackpot and amounts earned as reimbursement of the administrative costs of maintaining table games jackpot funds, respectively.

 

As indicated by the table above, total Card Casino revenue increased $103,000, or 1.0%, and $3,600,000, or 21.5% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the same periods in 2021. The increases are primarily due to increased visitation as our business recovers from the effects of the COVID-19 Pandemic described above, as well as increased table games drop from the successful marketing efforts to recruit higher value players. The increase in Card Casino revenue for the first six-months ended June 30, 2022 is also due to an increase in revenue generated from poker tournaments in the 2022 first quarter. 

 

Food and Beverage Revenue:

 

Food and beverage revenue increased $879,000, or 69.2%, and $1,593,000, or 96.9%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the same periods in 2021. The increases are primarily due to increased visitation and live racing attendance as our business recovers from the effects of the COVID-19 Pandemic described above. Furthermore, the increase is also attributable to hosting larger scale events in the 2022 first six months, which is more consistent with our pre-COVID food and beverage operations. 

 

Other Revenue:

 

Other revenue increased $843,000, or 72.3%, and $952,000, or 47.6% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the same periods in 2021. The increases are primarily due to increased visitation and live racing attendance as our business recovers from the effects of the COVID-19 Pandemic described above as well as hosting larger scale events. Additionally, we recognized increased advertising revenue for marketing initiatives related to the Cooperative Marketing Agreement (the “CMA”) in the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the same period in 2021, which saw capacity constraints and various restrictions continue through May 28, 2021. The increase is partially offset by the Company receiving $515,000 of COVID-19 relief grants in the 2021 first quarter. 

 

Operating Expenses:

 

Total operating expenses increased $2,041,000, or 15.6%, and $5,299,000 or 25.2%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the same periods in 2021. The increases reflect increases in all of the Company's operating expenses, primarily as a result of the return to normalized operations in the three and six months ending June 30, 2022 as compared to the prior year which included a temporary suspension of operations through January 10, 2021 and the limitations placed on operations upon reopening until May 2021. The following paragraphs provide further detail regarding certain operating expenses.

 

Purse expense increased $50,000, or 2.0%, and $511,000, or 14.9% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the same periods in 2021. The increases are primarily due to increases in pari-mutuel and Card Casino revenues. 

 

Salaries and benefits increased $825,000, or 14.5%, and $2,366,000, or 24.5%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the same periods in 2021. The increases are primarily due to an increase in the number of personnel to support our resumption of normalized operations in the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 as well as the fact that the majority of employees were placed on an unpaid furlough during the first week of 2021. Additionally, to attract and retain front-line workers and get closer to full staffing levels, we have increased our wage-rate structure for seasonal as well as year-round employees.

 

Cost of food and beverage sales increased $354,000, or 63.8%, and $645,000, or 84.9%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the same periods in 2021. The increases are primarily due to the increased food and beverage revenue as described above. 

 

20

 

Advertising and marketing increased $497,000, or 133.1%, and $742,000, or 172.6%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the same periods in 2021. The increases are primarily due to an increase in advertising spend for the first six months of 2022 to be more consistent with historic levels and to target higher value players and higher visitation. Additionally, we incurred additional advertising expenses for marketing initiatives related to the CMA in the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the same period in 2021, which saw capacity constraints and various restrictions continue through May 28, 2021.

 

Other operating expenses increased $85,000, or 7.5%, and $388,000 or 21.4%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the same periods in 2021. The increases are primarily due to our resumption of normalized operations including hosting special events and poker tournaments in the first six months of 2022, as well as the fact the Company focused on minimizing discretionary spend in the first six months of 2021 to preserve cash. 

 

During the 2022 second quarter, the Company recorded a gain on sale of land of $12,000 as a result of the sale of approximately 4 acres of land for approximately $1,200,000 in gross proceeds.

 

The Company recorded a provision for income taxes of $619,000 and $758,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The Company recorded a provision for income taxes of $1,224,000 and $1,010,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. We record our quarterly provision for income taxes based on our estimated annual effective tax rate for the year. The decrease in our tax expense for the three months ended June 30, 2022 is primarily due to a decrease in income before taxes from operations. Our effective tax rate was 26.1% and 25.8% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022. Our effective tax rate was 28.8% and 29.4% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease in the effective tax rate is primarily the result of favorable discrete items that occurred during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022.

 

The Company recorded net income of $1,775,000 and $3,529,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively. The Company recorded net income of $1,869,000 and $2,421,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively.

 

EBITDA

 

To supplement our financial statements, we also provide investors with information about our EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, each of which is a non-GAAP measure, which excludes certain items from net income, a GAAP measure. We define EBITDA as earnings before interest, income tax expense, and depreciation and amortization. We also compute Adjusted EBITDA, which reflects additional adjustments to Net Income to eliminate unusual or non-recurring items, as well as items relating to our real estate development operations and we believe the exclusion of these items allows for better comparability of our performance between periods. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 Adjusted EBITDA excluded depreciation, amortization, and interest expense related to equity investments. Neither EBITDA nor adjusted EBITDA is a measure of performance calculated in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income as an indicator of our operating performance. EBITDA is presented as a supplemental disclosure because it is a widely used measure of performance and a basis for valuation of companies in our industry. Moreover, other companies that provide EBITDA information may calculate EBITDA differently than we do.

The following table sets forth a reconciliation of net income, a GAAP financial measure, to EBITDA and to adjusted EBITDA (defined above) which are non-GAAP financial measures, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021:

 ​

Adjusted EBITDA increased $51,000 and $2,176,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the same periods in 2021. The increase is due to increased visitation and live-racing attendance as COVID-19 Pandemic restrictions have been lifted and social distancing measures and operating capacity limitations have ceased. The increase is also due to increased operational efficiencies that have been implemented since the COVID-19 Pandemic. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of net revenue was 20.1% and 22.6%, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of net revenue was 22.1% and 20.1%, respectively.

 

Contingencies:

 

The Company entered into the CMA with the Shakopee Mdewakanton Sioux Community, which became effective on March 4, 2012, and was amended in the respective first quarters of 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, and June 2020 and is scheduled to terminate on December 31, 2022. The CMA contains specific covenants that, if breached, would trigger an obligation to repay a specified amount related to these covenants. At this time, management believes that the likelihood that the breach of a covenant would occur and that the Company would be required to pay the specified amount related to a covenant is remote.

 

The Company continues to analyze the feasibility of various options related to the development of our underutilized land. The Company may incur substantial costs during the feasibility and predevelopment process, but the Company believes available funds are sufficient to cover the near-term costs. See Liquidity and Capital Resources for more information on liquidity and capital resource requirements.

Liquidity and Capital Resources:

 

The Company has a general credit and security agreement with a financial institution, which provides a revolving credit line up to $10,000,000 and allows for letters of credit in the aggregate amount of up to $2,000,000 to be issued under the credit agreement which matures January 31, 2024. The line of credit is collateralized by all receivables, inventory, equipment, and general intangibles of the Company. The line of credit also includes collateral in the form of a Mortgage, Security Agreement, Fixture Financing Statement and Assignment of Leases and Rents. As of June 30, 2022, the outstanding balance on the line of credit was $0. As of June 30, 2022, the Company was in compliance with the financial covenants of the general credit and security agreement.

 

The Company’s cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash balance at June 30, 2022 was $23,999,000 compared to $15,599,000 as of December 31, 2021. The Company believes that unrestricted funds available in its cash accounts, amounts available under its revolving line of credit, along with funds generated from operations and future land sales, will be sufficient to satisfy its liquidity and capital resource requirements for regular operations, as well as its planned development expenses for the next twelve months. However, if the Company engages in any additional significant real estate development, significant improvements to its facilities, the Racetrack or surrounding grounds, or strategic growth or diversification transactions, additional financing would more than likely be required and the Company may seek this additional financing through joint venture arrangements, through incurring debt, or through an equity financing, or a combination of any of these.

 

Operating Activities

 

Net cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was $10,288,000, primarily as a result of the following: the Company reported net income of $3,529,000, depreciation of $1,488,000, a loss from equity investment of $774,000, and stock-based compensation and 401(k) match totaling $520,000. Primarily due to timing of our live racing season, the Company also experienced an increase in accounts payable of $1,499,000 and an increase to payable to horsepersons of $6,423,000, offset by a decrease in accounts receivable of $1,455,000 and income taxes receivable and prepaid income taxes of $4,482,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2022. 

 

Net cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was $11,332,000, primarily as a result of the following: The Company reported net income of $2,421,000, depreciation of $1,384,000, a loss from equity investment of $1,279,000, and stock-based compensation and 401(k) match totaling $493,000. The Company also experienced an increase in accrued wages and payroll taxes of $2,210,000 and an increase in payable to horsepersons of $4,053,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase in accrued wages and payroll taxes is due to the timing of our payroll dates as well as the fact the Company's operations were temporarily suspended as of December 31, 2020 resulting in a reduction in payroll costs. The increase in our payable to horsepersons is primarily due to timing. 

 

Investing Activities

 ​

Net cash used in investing activities for the first six months of 2022 was $1,055,000, primarily due to additions to land, buildings, and equipment and equity investment contributions. Net cash provided by investing activities for the first six months of 2021 was $669,000 primarily due to the proceeds from sale of land. 

 

Financing Activities

 

Net cash used in financing activities during the first six months of 2022 was $832,000, primarily due to cash dividends paid to shareholders and payments for taxes of equity awards. Net cash provided by financing activities during the first six months of 2021 was $62,000 due to proceeds from the issuance of common stock upon exercise of stock option awards, partially offset by payments for taxes of equity awards.

The preparation of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with GAAP requires us to make estimates and judgments that are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty. The nature of the estimates and assumptions are material due to the levels of subjectivity and judgment necessary to account for highly uncertain factors or the susceptibility of such factors to change. The development and selection of critical accounting estimates, and the related disclosures, have been reviewed with the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors. We believe the current assumptions and other considerations used to estimate amounts reflected in our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are appropriate. However, if actual experience differs from the assumptions and other considerations used in estimating amounts reflected in our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, the resulting changes could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Estimate of the allowance for doubtful accounts - Property Tax Increment Financing "TIF" Receivable 

 

As of June 30, 2022, the Company recorded a TIF receivable on its Consolidated Balance Sheet of approximately $12,835,000, which represents $11,180,000 of principal and $1,655,000 of interest. The TIF receivable requires significant management estimates and judgement pertaining to whether an allowance for doubtful accounts is necessary. The TIF receivable was generated in connection with the Contract for Private Redevelopment, in which the City of Shakopee has agreed that a portion of the future tax increment revenue generated from the developed property around the Racetrack will be paid to the Company to reimburse it for expenses in constructing public infrastructure improvements.

 

The Company typically performs an annual collectability analysis of the TIF receivable in the fourth quarter of each year, or more frequently if indicators of potential uncollectability exist. The Company utilizes the assistance of a third party to assist with the projected tax increments. The quantitative analysis includes assumptions based on the market values of the completed development projects within Canterbury Commons, which derives the future projected tax increment revenue. The Company uses the analysis to determine if the future tax increment revenue will exceed the Company's development costs on infrastructure improvements. As a result of our analysis for the year ended December 31, 2021, management believes the TIF receivable will be fully collectible and no allowance related to this receivable is necessary. There were no indicators of potential uncollectability in the quarter ended June 30, 2022. 

 

Commitments and Contractual Obligations:

 

The Company entered into the CMA with the SMSC on June 4, 2012, that was amended in January 2015, 2016, 2017, March 2018, and June 2020 and is scheduled to terminate on December 31, 2022. See “Cooperative Marketing Agreement” below.

 

Cooperative Marketing Agreement:

 

On June 4, 2012, the Company entered into the CMA with the SMSC. The primary purpose of the CMA is to increase purses paid during live horse racing at Canterbury Park’s Racetrack in order to strengthen Minnesota’s thoroughbred and quarter horse industry. Under the CMA, as amended, this is achieved through “Purse Enhancement Payments to Horsemen” paid directly to the MHBPA. These payments have no direct impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements or operations.

 

Under the CMA, as amended, SMSC also agreed to make “Marketing Payments” to the Company relating to joint marketing efforts for the mutual benefit of the Company and SMSC, including signage, joint promotions, player benefits, and events.

 

As noted above and affirmed in the Fifth Amendment, SMSC is obligated to make an annual purse enhancement of $7,380,000 and annual marketing payment of $1,620,000 for 2022. 

 

The amounts earned from the marketing payments are recorded as a component of other revenue and the related expenses are recorded as a component of advertising and marketing expense and depreciation in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company recorded $675,000 and $787,000 in other revenue, incurred $621,000 and $687,000 in advertising and marketing expense, and incurred $54,000 and $100,000 in depreciation related to the SMSC marketing funds. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company recorded $366,000 and $413,000 in other revenue, respectively, incurred $342,000 and $365,000 in advertising and marketing expense, respectively, and incurred $24,000 and $48,000 in depreciation, respectively, related to the SMSC marketing funds.

 

Under the CMA, the Company has agreed for the term of the CMA, which has a stated term ending December 31, 2022 that it will not promote or lobby the Minnesota legislature for expanded gambling authority and will support the SMSC’s lobbying efforts against expanding gambling authority.

 

If, by December 31, 2022, the CMA is not extended or renegotiated on economic terms substantially similar to those currently in effect or due to the parties being unable to mutually agree on other terms, the payments under the CMA will cease and future financial results from the live racing segment could be materially adversely affected.

Redevelopment Agreement:

 

As mentioned above in Note 8 of Notes to Financial Statements, on August 10, 2018, the City of Shakopee, the City of Shakopee Economic Development Authority, and the Company entered into a Redevelopment Agreement in connection with a Tax Increment Financing District (“TIF District”) that the City had approved in April 2018. Under the Redevelopment Agreement, the Company has agreed to undertake a number of specific infrastructure improvements within the TIF District, including the development of public streets, utilities, sidewalks, and other public infrastructure and the City of Shakopee agreed that a portion of the tax revenue generated from the developed property will be paid to the Company to reimburse it for its expense in constructing these improvements. The Company expects to finance its improvements under the Redevelopment Agreement with funds from its current operating resources and existing credit facility and, potentially, third-party financing sources.

 

On January 25, 2022, the Company received the fully executed First Amendment to the Contract for Private Redevelopment among the Company, the City of Shakopee, and the Shakopee EDA, which is effective as of September 7, 2021. Under the First Amendment and as part of the authorized changes regarding the responsibilities of the Company and the City, improvements on Unbridled Avenue will be primarily constructed by the City of Shakopee. As a result, the total estimated cost of TIF eligible improvements to be borne by the Company will be reduced by $5,744,000 to an amount not to exceed $17,592,881.
