NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

1.DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The Company owns, operates and manages the following casinos through wholly-owned subsidiaries in North America:

The Century Casino & Hotel in Central City, Colorado (“CTL”)

The Century Casino & Hotel in Cripple Creek, Colorado (“CRC”)

Mountaineer Casino, Racetrack & Resort in New Cumberland, West Virginia (“Mountaineer” or “MTR”) ⁽¹⁾

The Century Casino & Hotel in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada (“Century Resorts Alberta” or “CRA”)

The Century Casino St. Albert in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada (“CSA”); and

(1)VICI Properties Inc. (“VICI PropCo”) owns the real estate assets.

(2) CMR leases the land on which the Racing and Entertainment Centre (“REC”) and racetrack are located.

On December 1, 2020, the Company sold the casino operations of Century Casino Calgary (“CAL”). The Company continues to operate Century Sports, a sports bar, bowling and entertainment facility located on the property. In addition, the Company owns and leases the underlying real estate to the purchaser. See below in this Note 1 for additional information about CAL.

On March 17, 2020, the Company announced that it had permanently closed Century Casino Bath (“CCB”). CCB voluntarily surrendered its casino gaming license on April 28, 2020 and entered into a creditors voluntary liquidation on May 6, 2020. See below in this Note 1 for additional information about CCB.

Century Bets! Inc. (“CBS” or “Century Bets”) operates the pari-mutuel off-track betting network in southern Alberta, Canada.

The Company’s Colorado and West Virginia subsidiaries have partnered with sports betting and iGaming operators to offer sports wagering and online betting through mobile apps.

The Company has a controlling financial interest through its wholly-owned subsidiary Century Resorts Management GmbH (“CRM”) in the following majority-owned subsidiaries:

The Company owns 66.6% of Casinos Poland Ltd (“CPL” or “Casinos Poland”). As of June 30, 2021, CPL owned and operated eight casinos throughout Poland. CPL is consolidated as a majority-owned subsidiary for which the Company has a controlling financial interest. Polish Airports Company (“Polish Airports”) owns the remaining 33.3% of CPL, which is reported as a non-controlling financial interest.

The Company owns 75% of United Horsemen of Alberta Inc. dba Century Downs Racetrack and Casino (“CDR” or “Century Downs”). CDR operates Century Downs Racetrack and Casino, an REC in Balzac, a north metropolitan area of Calgary, Alberta, Canada. CDR is consolidated as a majority-owned subsidiary for which the Company has a controlling financial interest. The remaining 25% of CDR is owned by unaffiliated shareholders and is reported as a non-controlling financial interest.

The Company has the following concession, management and consulting service agreements:

As of June 30, 2021, the Company had a concession agreement with TUI Cruises for two ship-based casinos through the second quarter of 2022. From March 2020 to June 2021, both casinos did not operate due to the coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic. One of the ship-based casinos began operating in June 2021. In May 2021, a concession agreement with TUI Cruises for two other ship-based casinos ended.

The Company, through its subsidiary CRM, has a 7.5% ownership interest in Mendoza Central Entretenimientos S.A., an Argentinian company (“MCE”). In addition, CRM provides advice to MCE on casino matters pursuant to a consulting agreement in exchange for a fixed fee plus a percentage of MCE’s earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”). In March 2020, the Company impaired the $1.0 million MCE investment and wrote-down a $0.3 million receivable related to MCE due to assessments made related to the impact of COVID-19 on MCE. See Note 3 for additional information related to MCE.

Recent Developments Related to COVID-19

In late 2019, an outbreak of COVID-19 was identified in China and has since spread throughout much of the world. The COVID-19 pandemic had an adverse effect on the Company’s 2020 results of operations and financial condition, and impacted the Company’s results of operations to a lesser extent in the first half of 2021 because the Company’s United States properties were open and operating during this period. The table below provides a summary of the time periods in which the Company’s casinos, hotels and other facilities have been closed to comply with quarantines issued by governments to contain the spread of COVID-19. The Company’s casinos have varied their operations based on the governmental health and safety requirements in the jurisdictions in which they are located. These include capacity and gaming floor restrictions and limited hours of operations.



Operating Segment	Closure Date	Reopen Date	Gaming Floor Open
Colorado	March 17, 2020	June 15 and June 17, 2020	100%
Missouri	March 17, 2020	June 1, 2020	94%
West Virginia	March 17, 2020	June 5, 2020	100%
Edmonton	March 17, 2020	June 13, 2020
	December 13, 2020	June 10, 2021	100%
Calgary	March 17, 2020	June 13, 2020
	December 13, 2020	June 10, 2021	100%
Poland	March 13, 2020	May 18, 2020
	December 29, 2020	February 12, 2021
	March 20, 2021	May 28, 2021	69%

The Company continues to monitor its liquidity in light of the uncertainty resulting from COVID-19. The Company plans to continue its reduced marketing expenditures and operational expenditures where possible. The Company’s 2021 planned capital expenditure projects will be evaluated throughout the year and postponed to 2022 if necessary and permitted under its agreements. In March 2020, as a proactive measure to increase its cash position and preserve financial flexibility, the Company borrowed an additional $9.95 million on its $10.0 million revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Facility”) under its credit facility (“Macquarie Credit Agreement”) with Macquarie Capital (“Macquarie”) and $7.4 million on its credit agreement with UniCredit Bank Austria AG (“UniCredit”). The Revolving Facility was repaid in July 2020 except for a $50,000 letter of credit that was repaid in May 2021. The $7.4 million credit agreement with UniCredit was refinanced in June 2021 to a EUR 6.0 million term loan repayable through December 31, 2025. See Note 5 for further discussion of the Macquarie Credit Agreement and the UniCredit credit agreement.

The duration and impact of the COVID-19 pandemic remains uncertain. The Company cannot predict the negative impacts that COVID-19 will have on its consumer demand, workforce, suppliers, contractors and other partners and whether future closures will be required. Such closures have had a material impact on the Company’s financial results. The effects of COVID-19, ongoing governmental health and safety requirements and any future closures could have a material impact on the Company.

Other Projects and Developments

Caruthersville

In July 2021, the Missouri law requiring each casino to be a floating facility was amended to allow casino facilities to be built as a standard building with a container with at least 2,000 gallons of water beneath the facility. The law will become effective on August 28, 2021. This change provides an opportunity for Century Casino Caruthersville, the last remaining riverboat casino on open water in Missouri, to move to a non-floating facility. The Company is exploring moving the casino from the riverboat but does not have an estimated cost or completion date.

On July 16, 2021, the Company announced that it had purchased land and a small two-story hotel near Century Casino Caruthersville with plans to refurbish the existing hotel’s 36 rooms by early 2022. The Company estimates this project will cost approximately $1.5 million.

‎

Century Casino Calgary

On August 5, 2020, the Company announced that it had entered into an agreement to sell the casino operations of Century Casino Calgary for CAD 10.0 million ($7.5 million based on the exchange rate on August 5, 2020) plus a three year quarterly earn out as specified in the agreement. The transaction closed on December 1, 2020.

Century Casino Bath

In March 2020, CCB was closed due to COVID-19. Due to challenging conditions that included historical and forecast losses due to changes in the regulatory environment for casinos in England requiring enhanced due diligence of customers, CCB’s board of directors determined that it would enter into creditors voluntary liquidation and control of CCB was relinquished. Under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 810, Consolidation, specifically ASC 810-10-15, consolidation of a majority-owned subsidiary is precluded where control does not rest with the majority owners. Accordingly, when a subsidiary is in legal reorganization or files for bankruptcy, it is appropriate for the parent to deconsolidate the subsidiary. The Company will not regain control of CCB and determined that it was appropriate to deconsolidate CCB effective as of May 6, 2020. The Company recognized a gain of $7.4 million in general and administrative expenses on its condensed consolidated statements of loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020.

Preparation of Financial Statements

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) for interim financial reporting, the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission which apply to interim financial statements and the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with US GAAP have been condensed or omitted. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for the fair presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company have been included. These 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, 2020. The results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year.

Reclassifications – Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation in the condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes thereto.

Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash – A reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash as stated in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of cash flows is presented in the following table:


	June 30,		June 30,
Amounts in thousands	2021		2020
Cash and cash equivalents	$	80,163	$	51,641
Restricted cash included in deposits and other		272		827
Total cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash shown in the statement of cash flows	$	80,435	$	52,468

As of June 30, 2021, restricted cash included $0.2 million in deposits and other related to payments of prizes and giveaways for Casinos Poland and less than $0.1 million in deposits and other related to an insurance policy. As of June 30, 2020, restricted cash included $0.6 million in deposits and other related to a cash guarantee under a CCB loan agreement that CRM assumed in February 2020, $0.2 million in deposits and other related to payments of prizes and giveaways for Casinos Poland and less than $0.1 million in deposits and other related to an insurance policy.

Use of Estimates – The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. Management’s use of estimates includes estimates for property and equipment, goodwill, intangible assets and income tax.

Presentation of Foreign Currency Amounts – The Company’s functional currency is the US dollar (“USD” or “$”). Foreign subsidiaries with a functional currency other than the US dollar translate assets and liabilities at current exchange rates at the end of the reporting periods, while income and expense accounts are translated at average exchange rates for the respective periods. The Company and its subsidiaries enter into various transactions made in currencies different from their functional currencies. These transactions are typically denominated in the Canadian dollar (“CAD”), Euro (“EUR”), Polish zloty (“PLN”) and British pound (“GBP”). Gains and losses resulting from changes in foreign currency exchange rates related to these transactions are included in income from operations as they occur.

The exchange rates to the US dollar used to translate balances at the end of the reported periods are as follows:


	As of June 30,	As of December 31,
Ending Rates	2021	2020
Canadian dollar (CAD)	1.2394	1.2732
Euros (EUR)	0.8432	0.8157

3.INVESTMENTS

Cost Investment

Mendoza Central Entretenimientos S.A.

In October 2014, CRM entered into an agreement (the “MCE Agreement”) with Gambling and Entertainment LLC and its affiliates, pursuant to which CRM purchased 7.5% of the shares of MCE for $1.0 million. Pursuant to the MCE Agreement, CRM is working with MCE to utilize MCE’s exclusive concession agreement with Instituto Provincial de Juegos y Casinos to lease slot machines and provide related services to Casino de Mendoza, a casino located in Mendoza, Argentina that is owned by the Province of Mendoza. MCE may also pursue other gaming opportunities. Under the MCE Agreement, CRM has appointed one director to MCE’s board of directors.

In March 2020, the Company assessed the MCE investment due to COVID-19. Casino de Mendoza, MCE’s only customer, was temporarily closed in March 2020. The investment was valued using the following approaches: (i) income approach utilizing the business enterprise value which resulted in no value, and (ii) a value in exchange basis which resulted in no value due to the current circumstances of COVID-19. The Company charged $1.0 million to impairment – intangible and tangible assets in the Corporate and Other segment on the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of loss for the six months ended June 30, 2020.

4.GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Goodwill represents the future economic benefits of a business combination to the extent that the purchase price exceeds the fair value of the net identified tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The Company determines the estimated fair value of the net identified tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed after review and consideration of relevant information including discounted cash flows, quoted market prices, and estimates made by management.

The Company tests goodwill for impairment as of October 1 each year, or more frequently as circumstances indicate it is necessary. Testing compares the estimated fair values of our reporting units to the reporting units’ carrying values. The reportable segments with goodwill balances as of June 30, 2021 included Canada and Poland. For the quantitative goodwill impairment test, the current fair value of each reporting unit with goodwill balances is estimated using a combination of (i) the income approach using the discounted cash flow method for projected revenue, EBITDA and working capital, (ii) the market approach observing the price at which comparable companies or shares of comparable companies are bought or sold, and (iii) fair value measurements using either quoted market price or an estimate of fair value using a present value technique. The cost approach, estimating the cost of reproduction or replacement of an asset, was considered but not used because it does not adequately capture an operating company’s intangible value. If the carrying value of a reporting unit exceeds its estimated fair value, the Company will recognize an impairment for the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value.

The Company tests its indefinite-lived intangible assets as of October 1 each year, or more frequently as circumstances indicate it is necessary. The fair value is determined primarily using the multi-period excess earnings methodology and the relief from royalty method under the income approach.

‎

During the first quarter of 2020, as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and associated closure of its casinos, the Company concluded these triggering events could indicate possible impairment of its goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets. The Company performed a quantitative and qualitative impairment analysis and determined that goodwill and casino licenses related to certain reporting units were impaired. During the second quarter of 2020, the Company paid an additional $1.2 million related to the working capital adjustment for the acquisition of Mountaineer, Cape Girardeau and Caruthersville (the “Acquired Casinos”) from Eldorado Resorts, Inc. on December 6, 2019 (the “Acquisition”) that resulted in additional goodwill. This amount was subsequently impaired in the same period. The Company recorded $1.2 million and $34.2 million to impairment –intangible and tangible assets on its condensed consolidated statements of loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 related to the impairment of its goodwill and casino licenses for certain reporting units. The impairment analysis required management to make estimates about future operating results, valuation multiples and discount rates and assumptions based on historical data and consideration of future market conditions. Changes in the assumptions can materially affect these estimates. Given the uncertainty inherent in any projection, heightened by the possibility of additional effects of COVID-19, actual results may differ from the estimates and assumptions used, or conditions may change, which could result in additional impairment charges in the future. Such impairments could be material.

‎

Trademarks

The Company currently owns three trademarks, the Century Casinos trademark, the Mountaineer trademark and the Casinos Poland trademark, which are reported as intangible assets on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Trademarks: Finite-Lived

The Company has determined that the Mountaineer trademark, reported in the United States segment, has a useful life of ten years after considering, among other things, the expected use of the asset, the expected useful life of other related assets or asset groups, any legal, regulatory, or contractual provisions that may limit the useful life, the effects of obsolescence, demand and other economic factors, and the maintenance expenditures required to promote and support the trade name. As such, the trademark will be amortized over its useful life. Costs incurred to renew trademarks that are indefinite-lived are expensed over the renewal period to general and administrative expenses on the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of earnings (loss). Changes in the carrying amount of the Mountaineer trademark are as follows:

The weighted-average amortization period of the Mountaineer trademark is 8.4 years.

Trademarks: Indefinite-Lived

The Company has determined that the Casinos Poland trademark, reported in the Poland segment, and the Century Casinos trademark, reported in the Corporate and Other segment, have indefinite useful lives and therefore the Company does not amortize these trademarks. Costs incurred to renew trademarks that are indefinite-lived are expensed over the renewal period as general and administrative expenses on the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of earnings (loss). Changes in the carrying amount of the indefinite-lived trademarks are as follows:

These estimates do not reflect the impact of future foreign exchange rate changes or the continuation of the licenses following their expiration. The weighted average period before the next license expiration is 2.6 years. In Poland, gaming licenses are not renewable. Once a gaming license has expired, any gaming company can apply for the license.

Casino Licenses: Indefinite-Lived

The Company has determined that the casino licenses held in the United States segment from the Missouri Gaming Commission and the West Virginia Lottery Commission and held in the Canada segment from the Alberta Gaming, Liquor and Cannabis Commission and Horse Racing Alberta are indefinite-lived. Costs incurred to renew licenses that are indefinite-lived are expensed over the renewal period to general and administrative expenses on the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of earnings (loss). Changes in the carrying amount of the licenses are as follows:

Player’s Club Lists

The Company has determined that the player’s club lists, reported in the United States segment, have a useful life of seven years based on estimated revenue attrition among the player’s club members over each property’s historical operations as estimated by management. As such, the player’s club lists will be amortized over their useful lives. Changes in the carrying amount of the player’s club lists are as follows:

Credit Agreement – Macquarie Capital

On December 6, 2019, the Company entered into a $180.0 million credit agreement with Macquarie Capital Funding LLC, as swingline lender, administrative agent and collateral agent, Macquarie Capital (USA) Inc., as sole lead arranger and sole bookrunner, and the Lenders and L/C Lenders party thereto. The Macquarie Credit Agreement replaced the Company’s credit agreement with the Bank of Montreal (the “BMO Credit Agreement”). The Macquarie Credit Agreement provides for a $170.0 million term loan (the “Term Loan”) and the $10.0 million Revolving Facility. The Revolving Facility includes up to $5.0 million available for the issuance of letters of credit. The Company used proceeds from the Term Loan to fund the Acquisition, for the repayment of approximately $52.0 million outstanding under the BMO Credit Agreement and for general working capital and corporate purposes. In March 2020, the Company drew $9.95 million on the Revolving Facility. The Revolving Facility was repaid in July 2020 except for a $50,000 letter of credit that was repaid in May 2021. As of June 30, 2021, the outstanding balance of the Term Loan was $167.5 million and the Company had $10.0 million available to borrow on the Revolving Facility.

The Term Loan matures on December 6, 2026, and the Revolving Facility matures on December 6, 2024. The Term Loan requires scheduled quarterly payments in amounts equal to 0.25% of the original aggregate principal amount of the Term Loan, with the balance due at maturity. The Term Loan may be prepaid without penalty or premium.

Borrowings under the Macquarie Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate equal to, at the Company’s option, either (a) the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) (as defined in the Macquarie Credit Agreement), plus an applicable margin (each loan, being a “LIBOR Loan”) or (b) the Alternate Base Rate (as defined in the Macquarie Credit Agreement) (each loan, being a “ABR Loan”). The applicable margin for borrowings under the Term Loan is currently 6.50% per annum with respect to LIBOR Loans and 5.50% per annum with respect to ABR Loans. The applicable margin for borrowings under the Revolving Facility is determined as follows: (1) so long as the Consolidated First Lien Net Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Macquarie Credit Agreement) of the Company is greater than 2.75 to 1.00, the applicable margin for LIBOR Loans will be 4.25% per annum, and for ABR Loans will be 3.25% per annum, and (2) so long as the Consolidated First Lien Net Leverage Ratio of the Company is less than or equal to 2.75 to 1.00, the applicable margin for LIBOR Loans will be 4.00% per annum, and for ABR Loans will be 3.00% per annum.

In addition, on a quarterly basis, the Company is required to pay each lender under the Revolving Facility a commitment fee in respect of any unused commitments under the Revolving Facility in the amount of 0.50% of the principal amount of unused commitments of such lender, subject to a stepdown to 0.375% based upon the Company’s Consolidated First Lien Net Leverage Ratio. The Company is also required to pay letter of credit participation fees equal to the applicable margin then in effect for LIBOR Loans multiplied by the average aggregate daily maximum amount available to be drawn under all letters of credit, plus such letter of credit issuer’s customary documentary and processing fees and charges and a fronting fee in an amount equal to 0.125% of the face amount of such letter of credit. The Company is also required to pay customary agency fees. Commitment fees of less than $0.1 million were recorded as interest expense in the condensed consolidated statements of earnings (loss) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020.

‎

The Macquarie Credit Agreement requires the Company to prepay the Term Loan, subject to certain exceptions, with:

100% of the net cash proceeds of certain non-ordinary course asset sales or certain casualty events, subject to certain exceptions; and

75% of the Company’s annual Excess Cash Flow (as defined in the Macquarie Credit Agreement) if the Consolidated First Lien Net Leverage Ratio is greater than 2.75 to 1.00 (which percentage will be reduced to (i) 50% if the Consolidated First Lien Net Leverage Ratio is greater than 2.50 to 1.00 but less than or equal to 2.75 to 1.00, (ii) 25% if the Consolidated First Lien Net Leverage Ratio is greater than 2.25 to 1.00 but less than or equal to 2.50 to 1.00, and (iii) 0% if the Consolidated First Lien Net Leverage Ratio is less than or equal to 2.25 to 1.00).

The borrowings under the Macquarie Credit Agreement are guaranteed by the material subsidiaries of the Company, subject to certain exceptions, and are secured by a pledge (and, with respect to real property, mortgage) of substantially all of the existing and future property and assets of the Company and the guarantors, subject to certain exceptions.

The Macquarie Credit Agreement contains customary representations and warranties, affirmative, negative and financial covenants, and events of default. All future borrowings under the Macquarie Credit Agreement are subject to the satisfaction of customary conditions, including the absence of a default and the accuracy of representations and warranties. The Revolving Facility includes a financial maintenance covenant (the “Financial Covenant”) tested as of the last day of each fiscal quarter in which borrowings under the Revolving Facility as of such day equal or exceed $3.5 million. Due to the COVID-19-related borrowings under the Revolving Facility in March 2020, which were substantially repaid in July 2020, the Company and the lender concluded that the Company had not been in compliance with the Financial Covenant. As of September 30, 2020, the Company and Macquarie amended the Macquarie Credit Agreement. Among other things, the amendment waived past noncompliance with the Financial Covenant, suspended further testing of the Financial Covenant until the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2021, and suspended certain restricted payment baskets until June 30, 2021. As of June 30, 2021, the Company was in compliance with all applicable financial covenants under the Macquarie Credit Agreement.

Deferred financing costs consist of the Company’s costs related to the financing of the Macquarie Credit Agreement. The Company amortized $0.4 million and $0.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, relating to Macquarie Credit Agreement deferred financing costs. These costs are included in interest expense in the condensed consolidated statements of earnings (loss) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020.

Casinos Poland

CPL’s short-term line of credit with Alior Bank ended in April 2020. The line of credit bore an interest rate of three-month Warsaw Interbank Offered Rate (“WIBOR”) plus 1.55%.

As of June 30, 2021, CPL had five credit agreements with mBank as detailed below. In April 2021, CPL obtained a waiver from mBank that waives CPL’s compliance requirements with the required cash inflows and financial covenants discussed below through October 31, 2021.

The first credit agreement between CPL and mBank is a PLN 3.0 million term loan that was used to renovate the existing casino space at the Marriott Hotel in Warsaw. The credit agreement bears an interest rate of 1-month WIBOR plus 1.70%. The credit agreement has a three year term through November 30, 2021. As of June 30, 2021, the credit agreement had an outstanding balance of PLN 0.8 million ($0.2 million based on the exchange rate in effect on June 30, 2021). CPL has no further borrowing availability under this credit agreement. The credit agreement is secured by a building owned by CPL in Warsaw. In addition, CPL is required to maintain both cash inflows of PLN 5.0 million to its account held with mBank and to comply with financial covenants, including covenants that relate to profit margins not lower than 0.3% to 0.4%, liquidity ratios no less than 1.3 and a debt ratio not higher than 60%. In May 2020, the credit agreement was amended to defer three months of payments to November 30, 2021.

The second credit agreement between CPL and mBank is a PLN 4.0 million term loan that was used to renovate and enlarge the casino space at the Marriott Hotel in Warsaw. The credit agreement bears an interest rate of 1-month WIBOR plus 1.70%. The credit agreement has a three year term through November 30, 2021. As of June 30, 2021, the credit agreement had an outstanding balance of PLN 1.1 million ($0.3 million based on the exchange rate in effect on June 30, 2021). CPL has no further borrowing availability under this credit agreement. The credit agreement is secured by a building owned by CPL in Warsaw.

In May 2020, the credit agreement was amended to defer three months of payments to November 30, 2021.

The third credit agreement between CPL and mBank is a PLN 2.5 million term loan that was used to purchase gaming and other equipment for the Marriott Hotel in Warsaw.

Century Resorts Management

As of June 30, 2021, CRM had two credit agreements with UniCredit (the “UniCredit Term Loans”).

The first credit agreement (“UniCredit Term Loan 1”) is a GBP 2.0 million term loan used for construction and fitting out of CCB.

Century Downs Racetrack and Casino

CDR’s land lease is a financing obligation of the Company. Prior to the Company’s acquisition of its ownership interest in CDR, CDR sold a portion of the land on which the REC project is located and then entered into an agreement to lease back a portion of the land sold. The Company accounts for the lease using the financing method by accounting for the land subject to lease as an asset and the lease payments as interest on the financing obligation. Under the land lease, CDR has four options to purchase the land. The first option date is July 1, 2023. Due to the nature of the CDR land lease financing obligation, there are no principal payments due until the Company exercises its option to purchase the land. Lease payments are applied to interest only, and any change in the outstanding balance of the financing obligation relates to foreign currency translation. As of June 30, 2021, the outstanding balance on the financing obligation was CAD 19.5 million ($15.7 million based on the exchange rate in effect on June 30, 2021).

As of June 30, 2021, scheduled maturities related to long-term debt were as follows:

6.LONG-TERM FINANCING OBLIGATION

On December 6, 2019, certain subsidiaries of the Company (collectively, the “Tenant”) and certain subsidiaries of VICI PropCo (collectively, the “Landlord”) entered into the sale and leaseback transaction for the Acquired Casino properties. The Tenant entered into a triple net lease agreement (the “Master Lease”) with the Landlord to lease the real estate assets of the Acquired Casinos. The Master Lease does not transfer control of the Acquired Casino properties to VICI Propco subsidiaries. The Company accounts for the transaction as a failed sale-leaseback financing obligation.

When cash proceeds are exchanged, a failed sale-leaseback financing obligation is equal to the proceeds received for the assets that are sold and then leased back. The value of the failed sale-leaseback financing obligations recognized in this transaction was determined to be the fair value of the leased real estate assets. In subsequent periods, a portion of the periodic payment under the Master Lease will be recognized as interest expense with the remainder of the payment reducing the failed sale-leaseback financing obligation using the effective interest method. The failed sale-leaseback obligations will not be reduced to less than the net book value of the leased real estate assets as of the end of the lease term, which is estimated to be $28.5 million.

The fair values of the real estate assets and the related failed sale-leaseback financing obligation were estimated based on the present value of the estimated future payments over the term plus renewal options of 35 years, using an imputed discount rate of approximately 10.6%. The value of the failed sale-leaseback financing obligation is dependent upon assumptions regarding the amount of the payments and the estimated discount rate of the payments required by a market participant.

The Master Lease provides for the lease of land, buildings, structures and other improvements on the land (including barges and riverboats), easements and similar appurtenances to the land and improvements relating to the operations of the leased properties. The Master Lease has an initial term of 15 years with no purchase option. At the Company’s option, the Master Lease may be extended for up to four five year renewal terms beyond the initial 15 year term. The renewal terms are effective as to all, but not less than all, of the property then subject to the Master Lease. The Company does not have the ability to terminate its obligations under the Master Lease prior to its expiration without the Landlord’s consent.

The Master Lease has a triple-net structure, which requires the Tenant to pay substantially all costs associated with the Acquired Casino properties, including real estate taxes, insurance, utilities, maintenance and operational costs. The Master Lease contains certain covenants, including minimum capital improvement expenditures. The Company has provided a guarantee of the Tenant’s obligations under the Master Lease.

‎

The rent payable under the Master Lease is comprised of “Base Rent” and “Variable Rent”. Base rent is:

An initial annual rent (the “Rent”) of approximately $25.0 million.

The Rent will escalate at a rate of 1.01% for the 2^nd and 3^rd years and the greater of either 1.0125% (the “Base Rent Escalator”) or the increase in the Consumer Price Index (“CPI”) for each year starting in the 4^th year and ending the 7^th year.

The Base Rent Escalator is subject to adjustment from and after the 6^th year if the Minimum Rent Coverage Ratio (as defined in the Master Lease) is not satisfied.

Beginning in the 8^th year of the lease term, Rent will be calculated as (i) 80% of the Rent for the 7^th lease year (“Base Rent”), subject to an annual Base Rent Escalator of the greater of 1.0125% or CPI subject to adjustment if the Minimum Rent Coverage Ratio is not satisfied, plus (ii) variable rent (“Variable Rent”) equal to 20% of the Rent for the 7^th lease year, plus or minus 4.0% of the change in average net revenue of the Acquired Casinos calculated as set forth in the Master Lease.

For the 11^th year and thereafter of the initial lease term, the Base Rent will escalate annually as set forth above and the Variable Rent will be recalculated as set forth in the Master Lease.

The estimated future payments include the payments and adjustments to reflect estimated payments as described in the Master Lease, including an annual escalator of up to 1.0125% and estimates based on contingent rental payments.

Total payments and interest expense related to the Master Lease for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 were as follows.

7.COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Litigation

Since 2011, the Polish Internal Revenue Service (“Polish IRS”) has conducted a series of tax audits of CPL to review the calculation and payment of personal income tax by CPL employees for periods ranging from 2007 to 2013. The Polish IRS has asserted that CPL should calculate, collect and remit to the Polish IRS personal income tax on tips received by CPL employees from casino customers and has prevailed in several court challenges by CPL. Through June 30, 2021, CPL has paid PLN 14.3 million ($4.2 million) related to these audits.

The balance of the potential liability on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet for all open periods as of June 30, 2021 is PLN 1.8 million ($0.5 million based on the exchange rate in effect on June 30, 2021). The Company has evaluated the contingent liability recorded on its condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2021 and has concluded that it is properly accrued in light of the Company’s estimated obligation related to personal income tax on tips as of June 30, 2021. Additional court decisions and other proceedings by the Polish IRS may expose the Company to additional employment tax obligations in the future. Any additional tax obligations are not probable or estimable and the Company has not recorded any additional obligation related to such taxes as of June 30, 2021. Additional tax obligations assessed in the future as a result of these matters, if any, may be material to the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

In March 2020, the Company assessed the likelihood of the collectability of a receivable from LOT Polish Airlines (“LOT”), which previously owned a 33.3% interest in CPL that it sold to the Company in 2013. Due to COVID-19, LOT grounded flights in March 2020. Based on past efforts to collect on LOT’s portions of payments made by CPL to the Polish IRS for tax periods in January 2009 to March 2013 and analysis of LOT’s ability to pay, the Company wrote-down PLN 3.0 million ($0.7 million based on the exchange rate in effect on March 31, 2020) to general and administrative expenses on its condensed consolidated statement of loss for the six months ended June 30, 2020.

8.INCOME TAXES

Income tax expense is recorded relative to the jurisdictions that recognize book earnings. For the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company recognized income tax expense of $1.2 million on pre-tax earnings of $5.6 million, representing an effective income tax rate of 21.8% compared to income tax expense of $3.1 million on pre-tax loss of ($55.8) million, representing an effective income tax rate of (5.6%) for the same period in 2020. The comparison of pre-tax earnings of $5.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 to the pre-tax loss of ($55.8) million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 should be considered when comparing effective tax rates for the respective periods.

For the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company computed an annual effective tax rate using forecasted information. Based on current forecasts, which take into account a range of potential impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company’s effective tax rate is expected to be highly sensitive to changes in earnings. The Company concluded that computing its effective tax rate using forecasted information would be appropriate in estimating tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2021.

A number of items caused the effective income tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2021 to differ from the US federal statutory income tax rate of 21%, including a 23% statutory tax rate in Canada, certain nondeductible business expenses in Poland, and various exchange rate benefits. The Company continues to maintain a full valuation allowance on deferred tax assets for CMR, United States, and CRM.

9.EARNINGS PER SHARE

The calculation of basic earnings per share considers only weighted average outstanding common shares in the computation. The calculation of diluted earnings per share gives effect to all potentially dilutive stock options. The calculation of diluted earnings per share is based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, plus, if dilutive, the assumed exercise of stock options using the treasury stock method. Weighted average shares outstanding for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 were as follows:



	For the three months				For the six months
	ended June 30,				ended June 30,
Amounts in thousands	2021		2020		2021		2020
Weighted average common shares, basic		29,579		29,576		29,578		29,541

Weighted average common shares, diluted		30,935		29,576		30,708		29,541

The following stock options are anti-dilutive and have not been included in the weighted average shares outstanding calculation:

10. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS AND DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS REPORTING

Fair Value Measurements

The Company follows fair value measurement authoritative accounting guidance for all assets and liabilities measured at fair value. That authoritative accounting guidance defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Market or observable inputs are the preferred sources of values, followed by assumptions based on hypothetical transactions in the absence of market inputs. The fair value hierarchy for grouping these assets and liabilities is based on the significance level of the following inputs:

Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

Level 2 – quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-derived valuations whose inputs are observable or whose significant value drivers are observable

Level 3 – significant inputs to the valuation model are unobservable

A financial instrument’s categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability. The Company reflects transfers between the three levels at the beginning of the reporting period in which the availability of observable inputs no longer justifies classification in the original level. There were no transfers between the three levels for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020.

Non-Recurring Fair Value Measurements

The Company applies the provisions of the fair value measurement standard to its non-recurring, non-financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value. During 2020, the Company wrote-down goodwill and intangible assets at certain properties based on forecast losses and cash flows at these reporting units resulting from the triggering events caused by COVID-19 and, as a result, charged $34.1 million to impairment – intangible and tangible assets on its condensed consolidated statement of loss for the six months ended June 30, 2020. Management’s assessments were designated as Level 3 measurements based on the unobservable nature of the inputs used to evaluate the goodwill and intangible assets. In addition, the Company impaired its MCE investment based on evaluations of the investment resulting from the triggering events caused by COVID-19. The Company made assessments about MCE’s ability to continue as a going concern and future cash flows of MCE. Management’s assessments were designated as Level 3 measurements based on the unobservable nature of the inputs used to evaluate the investment. The Company used an income approach and cost approach and weighted both equally. The resulting fair value was insignificant, and consequently the investment was fully impaired resulting in $1.0 million expense recorded as impairment – intangible and tangible assets on the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of loss for the six months ended June 30, 2020.

Long-Term Debt – The carrying value of the Macquarie Credit Agreement, the UniCredit Term Loans and CPL credit agreements approximate fair value based on the variable interest paid on the obligations. The carrying values of the CRM Term Loan 2 and CPL short-term lines of credit approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of the agreements and recently negotiated terms. The estimated fair values of the outstanding balances under the Macquarie Credit Agreement, CPL credit facility, CPL credit agreements, and CRM Term Loan 1 are designated as Level 2 measurements in the fair value hierarchy based on quoted prices in active markets for similar liabilities. The carrying values of the Company’s finance lease obligations approximate fair value based on the similar terms and conditions currently available to the Company in the marketplace for similar financings.

Other Estimated Fair Value Measurements – The estimated fair value of the Company’s other assets and liabilities, such as cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable, have been determined to approximate carrying value based on the short-term nature of those financial instruments. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company had no cash equivalents.

Net operating revenue	$	77,262	$	20,902	$	24,453	$	1,143	$	123,760

For the majority of the Company’s contracts with customers, payment is made in advance of the services and contracts are settled on the same day the sale occurs with revenue recognized on the date of the sale. For contracts that are not settled, a contract liability is created. The expected duration of the performance obligation is less than one year.

The amount of revenue recognized that was included in the opening contract liability balance was $0.5 million and $0.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively, and less than $0.1 million and $0.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively. This revenue consists primarily of the Company’s deferred gaming revenue from player points earned through play at the Company’s casinos located in the United States. Activity in the Company’s receivables and contract liabilities is presented in the tables below.

Receivables are included in accounts receivable and contract liabilities are included in accrued liabilities on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. In March 2020, the Company wrote-down its receivables related to MCE based on assessments made due to COVID-19 and future cash flows of MCE, and as a result, charged $0.3 million to general and administrative expenses during the six months ended June 30, 2020.

Substantially all of the Company’s contracts and contract liabilities have an original duration of one year or less. The Company applies the practical expedient for such contracts and does not consider the effects of the time value of money. Further, because of the short duration of these contracts, the Company has not disclosed the transaction price for the remaining performance obligations as of the end of each reporting period or when the Company expects to recognize this revenue.

12.LEASES

The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. The right-of-use (“ROU”) assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term, and lease liabilities represent the obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at the commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. The Company uses its incremental borrowing rate in each of the jurisdictions in which its subsidiaries operate to calculate the present value of lease payments. Lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease. These options are included in the lease term when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise those options. Operating lease expense is recorded on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

The Company accounts for lease agreements with lease and non-lease components as a single lease component for all asset classes. The Company does not establish ROU assets or lease liabilities for operating leases with terms of 12 months or less.

The Company’s operating and finance leases include land, casino space, corporate offices, and gaming and other equipment. The leases have remaining lease terms of one month to 16 years.

The components of lease expense were as follows:

13.SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Company reports its financial performance in three reportable segments based on the geographical locations in which its casinos operate: the United States, Canada and Poland. The Company views each market in which it operates as a separate operating segment and each casino or other operation within those markets as a reporting unit. Operating segments are aggregated within reportable segments based on their similar economic characteristics, types of customers, types of services and products provided, the regulatory environments in which they operate, and their management and reporting structure. The Company’s operations related to Century Casino Bath, which the Company deconsolidated in May 2020, its concession, management and consulting agreements and certain other corporate and management operations have not been identified as separate reportable segments; therefore, these operations are included in Corporate and Other in the following segment disclosures to reconcile to consolidated results. All intercompany transactions are eliminated in consolidation.

The table below provides information about the aggregation of the Company’s reporting units and operating segments into reportable segments:


Reportable Segment	Operating Segment	Reporting Unit
United States	Colorado	Century Casino & Hotel - Central City
		Century Casino & Hotel - Cripple Creek
	West Virginia	Mountaineer Casino, Racetrack & Resort
	Missouri	Century Casino Cape Girardeau
		Century Casino Caruthersville
Canada	Edmonton	Century Casino & Hotel - Edmonton
		Century Casino St. Albert

		Corporate Other

The Company’s chief operating decision maker is a management function comprised of two individuals. These two individuals are the Company’s Co-Chief Executive Officers. The Company’s chief operating decision makers and management utilize Adjusted EBITDA as the primary profit measure for its reportable segments. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-US GAAP measure defined as net earnings (loss) attributable to Century Casinos, Inc. shareholders before interest expense (income), net, income taxes (benefit), depreciation, amortization, non-controlling interest (earnings) losses and transactions, pre-opening expenses, acquisition costs, non-cash stock-based compensation charges, asset impairment costs, (gain) loss on disposition of fixed assets, discontinued operations, (gain) loss on foreign currency transactions, cost recovery income and other, gain on business combination and certain other one-time transactions. Expense related to the Master Lease is included in the interest expense (income), net line item. Intercompany transactions consisting primarily of management and royalty fees and interest, along with their related tax effects, are excluded from the presentation of net earnings (loss) and Adjusted EBITDA reported for each segment. Non-cash stock-based compensation expense is presented under Corporate and Other in the tables below as the expense is not allocated to reportable segments when reviewed by the Company’s chief operating decision makers. Not all of the aforementioned items occur in each reporting period, but have been included in the definition based on historical activity. These adjustments have no effect on the consolidated results as reported under US GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA is not considered a measure of performance recognized under US GAAP.

The following tables provide information regarding the Company’s reportable segments:

EXECUTIVE OVERVIEW

Overview

Since our inception in 1992, we have been primarily engaged in developing and operating gaming establishments and related lodging, restaurant and entertainment facilities. Our primary source of revenue is from the net proceeds of our gaming machines and tables, with ancillary revenue generated from hotel, restaurant, horse racing (including off-track betting), sports betting, iGaming, bowling and entertainment facilities that are in most instances a part of the casinos.

We view each market in which we operate as a separate operating segment and each casino or other operation within those markets as a reporting unit. We aggregate all operating segments into three reportable segments based on the geographical locations in which our casinos operate: United States, Canada and Poland. We have additional business activities including concession agreements, management agreements, consulting agreements and certain other corporate and management operations that we report as Corporate and Other.

‎

The table below provides information about the aggregation of our operating segments and reporting units into reportable segments. The reporting units, except for Century Downs Racetrack and Casino and Casinos Poland, are owned, operated and managed through wholly-owned subsidiaries. Our ownership and operation of Century Downs Racetrack and Casino and Casinos Poland are discussed below. The real estate assets at our West Virginia and Missouri operating segments are owned by VICI PropCo and leased to us under the Master Lease. The land on which the REC and racetracks at Century Downs and Century Mile are located is leased.

On March 17, 2020, we announced that we had permanently closed CCB. CCB voluntarily surrendered its casino gaming license on April 28, 2020 and entered into a creditors voluntary liquidation on May 6, 2020. For additional information related to CCB, see Note 1, “Description of Business and Basis of Presentation,” to our condensed consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of this report.

We have controlling financial interests through our subsidiary CRM in the following reporting units:

We have a 66.6% ownership interest in CPL and we consolidate CPL as a majority-owned subsidiary for which we have a controlling financial interest. Polish Airports owns the remaining 33.3% of CPL. We account for and report the 33.3% Polish Airports ownership interest as a non-controlling financial interest. CPL has been in operation since 1989. As of June 30, 2021, CPL owned and operated eight casinos throughout Poland. The following table summarizes information about CPL’s casinos as of June 30, 2021.


City	Location	License Expiration	Number of Slots	Number of Tables

Casino licenses are granted for six years. When a casino license expires, the Polish Minister of Finance notifies the public of its availability, and interested parties can submit an application for the casino license. Following approval of a casino license by the Minister of Finance, there is a period in which applicants can appeal the decision.

We have a 75% ownership interest in CDR, and we consolidate CDR as a majority-owned subsidiary for which we have a controlling financial interest. We account for and report the remaining 25% ownership interest in CDR as a non-controlling financial interest. CDR operates Century Downs Racetrack and Casino, a REC in Balzac, a north metropolitan area of Calgary, Alberta, Canada. CDR is the only horse racetrack in the Calgary area and is located less than one-mile north of the city limits of Calgary and 4.5 miles from the Calgary International Airport.

We also have a concession agreement for ship-based casinos and ownership in and a consulting agreement with MCE, which are detailed further under “Corporate and Other” below.

Recent Developments Related to COVID-19

In late 2019, an outbreak of COVID-19 was identified in China and has since spread throughout much of the world. The COVID-19 pandemic had an adverse effect on our 2020 results of operations and financial condition, and impacted our results of operations to a lesser extent in the first half of 2021 because our United States properties were open and operating during this period. The table below provides a summary of the time periods in which our casinos, hotels and other facilities have been closed to comply with quarantines issued by governments to contain the spread of COVID-19. Our casinos have varied their operations based on the governmental health and safety requirements in the jurisdictions in which they are located. These include capacity and gaming floor restrictions and limited hours of operation.


Operating Segment	Closure Date	Reopen Date	Gaming Floor Open
Colorado	March 17, 2020	June 15 and June 17, 2020	100%
Missouri	March 17, 2020	June 1, 2020	94%
West Virginia	March 17, 2020	June 5, 2020	100%
Edmonton	March 17, 2020	June 13, 2020
	December 13, 2020	June 10, 2021	100%
Calgary	March 17, 2020	June 13, 2020
	December 13, 2020	June 10, 2021	100%
Poland	March 13, 2020	May 18, 2020
	December 29, 2020	February 12, 2021
	March 20, 2021	May 28, 2021	69%

Although all of our facilities are currently open, temporary closures of all of our facilities during 2020 and some of our facilities in the first half of 2021 due to COVID-19 negatively impacted results for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020. We estimate that net operating revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 was adversely impacted by approximately $35.9 million and $91.3 million, respectively, and that Adjusted EBITDA for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 was adversely impacted by approximately $13.1 million and $34.3 million, respectively, due to the closures. See “Discussion of Results” below for a discussion of the impact of the closures in each operating segment.

We continue to monitor our liquidity in light of the uncertainty resulting from COVID-19. We plan to continue our reduced marketing and operational expenditures where possible and to seek government subsidies in jurisdictions in which they are available and attainable. Planned capital expenditures for 2021 include approximately $4.6 million in gaming equipment, renovations to various properties and security system upgrades. As discussed below, we also plan to refurbish a hotel near Century Casino Caruthersville at a cost of approximately $1.5 million. We continue to evaluate our planned capital expenditures projects in 2021 and will postpone projects to 2022 if necessary and permitted under our agreements.

The duration and impact of the COVID-19 pandemic otherwise remains uncertain. We cannot predict the negative impacts that COVID-19 will have on our consumer demand, workforce, suppliers, contractors and other partners and whether future closures will be required. Such closures have had a material impact on us. The effects of COVID-19, ongoing governmental health and safety requirements and any future closures could have a material impact on us.

Other Projects and Developments

Caruthersville

In July 2021, the Missouri law requiring each casino to be a floating facility was amended to allow casino facilities to be built as a standard building with a container with at least 2,000 gallons of water beneath the facility. The law will become effective on August 28, 2021. This change provides an opportunity for Century Casino Caruthersville, the last remaining riverboat casino on open water in Missouri, to move to a non-floating facility. We are exploring moving the casino from the riverboat but do not have an estimated cost or completion date.

On July 16, 2021, we announced that we had purchased land and a small two-story hotel near Century Casino Caruthersville with plans to refurbish the existing hotel’s 36 rooms by early 2022. We estimate this project will cost approximately $1.5 million.

Century Casino Calgary – On August 5, 2020, we announced that we had entered into an agreement to sell the casino operations of Century Casino Calgary for CAD 10.0 million ($7.5 million based on the exchange rate on August 5, 2020) plus a three-year quarterly earn out as specified in the agreement. The transaction closed on December 1, 2020. During the first quarter of 2021, we paid CAD 0.1 million ($0.1 million based on the exchange rate on February 12, 2021) in working capital adjustments under the agreement. We continue to operate Century Sports, a sports bar, bowling and entertainment facility, and own the underlying real estate. In December 2020, we entered into a three-year lease agreement with the purchaser of the casino operations for the land and building for annual net rent of CAD 0.5 million ($0.4 million based on the exchange rate on June 30, 2021). In December 2020, we began to market the sale of the land and building that we own in Calgary. The sale is expected to occur by the end of

2021. As of June 30, 2021, the held for sale assets include $4.9 million in land and $3.6 million in buildings and improvements, net of accumulated depreciation.

Century Casino Bath – In March 2020, Century Casino Bath was closed due to COVID-19. Due to challenging conditions that included historical and forecast losses due to changes in the regulatory environment for casinos in England requiring enhanced due diligence of customers, CCB’s board of directors determined that it would enter into creditors voluntary liquidation and control of CCB was relinquished. We deconsolidated CCB effective as of May 6, 2020. See Note 1, “Description of Business and Basis of Presentation,” to our condensed consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of this report for further discussion of CCB.

Casinos Poland – We were in preliminary discussions with Totalizator Sportowy, Poland’s state-run gambling operator, regarding a potential sale of our interest in Casinos Poland; however, the discussions have been suspended and may not resume.

Additional Projects under Development

We are currently exploring additional potential gaming projects and acquisition opportunities. Along with the capital needs of potential projects, there are various other risks which, if they materialize, could affect our ability to complete the proposed project or acquisition or could eliminate its feasibility all together.

Presentation of Foreign Currency Amounts

The average exchange rates to the US dollar used to translate balances during each reported period are as follows:

Source: Pacific Exchange Rate Service

We recognize in our condensed consolidated statements of earnings (loss) foreign currency transaction gains or losses resulting from the translation of casino operations and other transactions that are denominated in a currency other than US dollars. Our casinos in Canada and Poland represent a significant portion of our business, and the revenue generated and expenses incurred by these operations are generally denominated in Canadian dollars and Polish zloty. A decrease in the value of these currencies in relation to the value of the US dollar would decrease the earnings from our foreign operations when translated into US dollars. An increase in the value of these currencies in relation to the value of the US dollar would increase the earnings from our foreign operations when translated into US dollars.

Items impacting comparability of the results include the following:

COVID-19 – Closures of all or a portion of our facilities due to COVID-19 had a significant negative impact on our results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020. See “Executive Overview--Recent Developments Related to COVID-19” above for details regarding the closures. In addition to the impacts on our revenue, expenses and results of operations, COVID-19 had the following impacts:

We impaired goodwill and intangible assets in the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 due to quantitative and qualitative impairment analysis performed related to the triggering events caused by COVID-19. We impaired $1.2 million in the United States segment in the three months ended June 30, 2020 and $30.7 million in the United States segment and $3.4 million in the Canada segment in the six months ended June 30, 2020.

We impaired the $1.0 million MCE investment in the Corporate and Other segment due to assessments made related to the impact of COVID-19 on MCE in the six months ended June 30, 2020.

We recorded valuation allowances on our net deferred tax assets in the United States and Canada segments in the six months ended June 30, 2020, which resulted in $1.0 million and $1.5 million of tax expense in the United States and Canada segments, respectively. In addition, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, we recorded a valuation allowance on our net deferred tax assets at CRM that resulted in $1.1 million of tax expense in the Corporate and Other segment.

Corporate and Other

We wrote-down $0.7 million related to the portion of the liability that we had sought to collect from LOT and a $0.3 million receivable related to MCE in the six months ended June 30, 2020.

We closed CCB in March 2020.

All cruise ships on which our ship-based casinos are located suspended operations in March 2020 due to COVID-19. One of our ship-based casinos began operating again in June 2021.

Non-US GAAP Measures – Adjusted EBITDA

We define Adjusted EBITDA as net earnings (loss) attributable to Century Casinos, Inc. shareholders before interest expense (income), net, income taxes (benefit), depreciation, amortization, non-controlling interest (earnings) losses and transactions, pre-opening expenses, acquisition costs, non-cash stock-based compensation charges, asset impairment costs, (gain) loss on disposition of fixed assets, discontinued operations, (gain) loss on foreign currency transactions, cost recovery income and other, gain on business combination and certain other one-time transactions. Expense related to the Master Lease is included in the interest expense (income), net line item. Intercompany transactions consisting primarily of management and royalty fees and interest, along with their related tax effects, are excluded from the presentation of net earnings (loss) attributable to Century Casinos, Inc. shareholders and Adjusted EBITDA reported for each segment. Non-cash stock-based compensation expense is presented under Corporate and Other in the tables below as the expense is not allocated to reportable segments when reviewed by our chief operating decision makers. Not all of the aforementioned items occur in each reporting period, but have been included in the definition based on historical activity. These adjustments have no effect on the consolidated results as reported under US generally accepted accounting principles (“US GAAP”). Adjusted EBITDA is not considered a measure of performance recognized under US GAAP.

Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA is a valuable measure of the relative performance of the Company and its properties. The gaming industry commonly uses Adjusted EBITDA as a method of arriving at the economic value of a casino operation. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate and forecast the operating performance of the Company and its properties as well as to compare results of current periods to prior periods. Management believes that presenting Adjusted EBITDA to investors provides them with information used by management for financial and operational decision-making in order to understand the Company’s operating performance and evaluate the methodology used by management to evaluate and measure such performance. Management believes that using Adjusted EBITDA is a useful way to compare the relative operating performance of separate reportable segments by eliminating the above-mentioned items associated with the varying levels of capital expenditures for infrastructure required to generate revenue, and the often high cost of acquiring existing operations. Our computation of Adjusted EBITDA may be different from, and therefore may not be comparable to, similar measures used by other companies within the gaming industry.

The reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net earnings (loss) attributable to Century Casinos, Inc. shareholders is presented below.

Sports wagering in Colorado became legal on May 1, 2020. We have partnered with sports betting operators that will conduct sports wagering under each of the three Colorado master licenses for sports wagering held by our Colorado subsidiaries. One of these mobile sports betting apps launched in July 2020. Each agreement with the sports betting operators provides for a share of net gaming revenue and a minimum revenue guarantee each year.

In December 2020, we entered into an agreement with an iGaming partner to utilize our license with the state of West Virginia to operate an internet and mobile interactive gaming application. The iGaming application launched in April 2021. The agreement provides for a share of net gaming revenue.

In November 2020, Colorado voters passed a constitutional amendment to allow voters in Cripple Creek, Black Hawk and Central City to increase or remove betting limits and approve new casino games. Elected officials in all three cities approved no limits on single bets at the casinos and new games and unlimited betting began in May 2021. The changes are expected to encourage customers who might otherwise travel to destination casinos to gamble in local Colorado casinos.

During the United States closures, we suspended marketing initiatives, furloughed employees and reduced operating costs and expenses as much as possible. Additional savings related to gaming-related expenses. COVID-19 continues to impact results, and we are seeking to maintain operating cost efficiencies during 2021. We are continuing to evaluate our promotional offerings and expect to increase them as needed to compete in the competitive markets in which we operate our US casinos. We plan to continue to encourage social distancing and other measures in compliance with governmental health and safety requirements.

Net operating revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2020 was impacted negatively by closures due to COVID-19. Our Canadian facilities reopened on June 10, 2021 and social distancing and attendance restrictions in our casinos were lifted in July 2021. In addition, we sold the casino operations of CAL in December 2020, which impacts comparability of the Calgary operating segment in 2021.

Operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2020 were impacted by COVID-19. We received wage subsidies provided by the Canadian government through the Canada Emergency Wage Subsidy that was enacted in April 2020 as a result of COVID-19 to help employers offset a portion of their employee wages for a limited period. In 2021, the qualified government wage subsidies reduced operating expenses by CAD 1.8 million ($1.5 million based on the average exchange rate for the three months ended June 30, 2021) and CAD 2.7 million ($2.2 million based on the exchange rate for the six months ended June 30, 2021) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively. In 2020, the qualified government wage subsidies reduced operating expenses by CAD 3.1 million ($2.3 million based on the average exchange rate for the six months ended June 30, 2020) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020. In addition, we sold the casino operations of CAL in December 2020. The sale of the casino operations reduced operating expenses in the Calgary operating segment in the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and will reduce operating expenses in this segment going forward.

During the Canadian closures we suspended marketing initiatives, furloughed employees and reduced operating costs and expenses as much as possible. We plan to continue to focus on managing costs and look for synergies among our Canadian properties, including prizes that are available to guests at all locations instead of at individual casinos only. We expect payroll costs will begin to trend higher in the second half of 2021 due to the reopening of our casinos, and government wage subsidies are not expected to continue.

In Poland, casino gaming licenses are granted for a term of six years. These licenses are not renewable. Before a gaming license expires, there is a public notification of the available license and any gaming company can apply for a new license for that city. The next license expiration for a CPL casino occurs in September 2022.

The net operating revenue decreases during the first half of 2021 and 2020 relate primarily to the temporary casino closures and reduced tourism in Warsaw. During the closures of our Poland casinos, we reduced operating costs and expenses as much as possible. COVID-19 continues to impact results, and we continue to focus on analyzing staffing needs to match customer volumes while managing our costs.

We currently own three casinos in Warsaw. There is proposed legislation to split the Warsaw voivodship (or province), which could limit the number of casino licenses available in Warsaw in the future. If the legislation is passed, it is expected that as licenses in Warsaw expire a new tender would not be offered until the maximum number of licenses available is reached. Any change to the number of licenses available in a city could have a negative impact on results if we are unable to obtain new casino licenses after they expire.

The following operations and agreements make up the reporting unit Cruise Ships & Other in the Corporate and Other reportable segment:

The casino at CCB opened in May 2018. CCB was permanently closed in March 2020 due to COVID-19 and CCB’s board of directors determined that CCB would enter into creditors voluntary liquidation, which occurred in May 2020. CCB was deconsolidated as a subsidiary in May 2020.

As of June 30, 2021, we had a concession agreement with TUI Cruises for two ship-based casinos through the second quarter of 2022. The cruise ships on which our ship-based casinos are located stopped sailing in March 2020 due to COVID-19 and did not sail during the first five months of 2021. One ship-based casino began operating in June 2021. In May 2021, the agreement with TUI Cruises for two additional ship-based casinos ended.

Through our subsidiary CRM, we have a 7.5% ownership interest in MCE. In addition, CRM provides advice to MCE on casino matters pursuant to a consulting agreement for a service fee consisting of a fixed fee plus a percentage of MCE’s EBITDA. In March 2020, due to the impact of COVID-19 on MCE, we impaired the $1.0 million MCE investment and wrote-down a $0.3 million receivable related to MCE. See Note 3, “Investments,” to our condensed consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of this report for additional information related to MCE.

Our corporate reporting units include certain corporate and management operations.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2021 and 2020

The following discussion highlights results for the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2020.

Revenue Highlights

Non-Corporate Reporting Units – Net operating revenue increased due to operation of one ship-based casino during the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2020.

Operating Expense Highlights

Non-Corporate Reporting Units – Total operating costs and expenses increased due to operation of one ship-based casino during the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2020. In addition, the deconsolidation of CCB resulted in a gain of $7.4 million that we recognized in general and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2020.

Corporate Reporting Units – Total operating costs and expenses increased by $0.3 million, or 9.2%, primarily due to increased payroll. During the 2020 closures, certain of our corporate staff voluntarily decreased their salaries.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2021 and 2020

The following discussion highlights results for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2020.

Revenue Highlights

Non-Corporate Reporting Units – Net operating revenue decreased due to the casino closures at CCB and on the ships due to COVID-19. CCB and the ship-based casinos were operating through the beginning of March 2020.

Operating Expense Highlights

Non-Corporate Reporting Units – Total operating costs and expenses decreased due to the casino closures at CCB and on the ships. CCB and the ship-based casinos were operating through the beginning of March 2020. In addition, the deconsolidation of CCB resulted in a gain of $7.4 million that we recognized in general and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2020.

Corporate Reporting Units – Total operating costs and expenses in the corporate reporting units decreased by ($1.4) million, or (20.5%). In March 2020, we impaired the MCE investment due to an assessment of MCE’s operations resulting from COVID-19. As a result of the impairment, we recorded $1.0 million to impairment – intangible and tangible assets and wrote-down a $0.3 million receivable related to MCE during the six months ended June 30, 2020. In addition, we assessed the collectability of a receivable from LOT Polish Airlines (“LOT”), which previously owned a 33.3% interest in CPL that we acquired in 2013, related to the Poland contingent liability and determined that, due to COVID-19, it was more likely than not that LOT would be unable to repay us for LOT’s portions of payments made by CPL to the Polish IRS for tax periods in January 2009 to March 2013. Due to COVID-19, LOT grounded flights in March 2020. Based on past efforts to collect on the receivable and analysis of LOT’s ability to pay, we wrote-down the $0.7 million receivable to general and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The write-offs were offset by increased payroll. During the 2020 closures, certain of our corporate staff voluntarily decreased their salaries.

Interest income

Interest income is directly related to interest earned on our cash reserves.

Interest expense

Interest expense is directly related to interest owed on our borrowings under our Macquarie Credit Agreement, our financing obligation with VICI PropCo, our CPL and CRM borrowings, our capital lease agreements and interest expense related to the CDR land lease.

(Loss) gain on foreign currency transactions, cost recovery income and other

Cost recovery income of $0.7 million was received by CDR for the six months ended June 30, 2021 related to infrastructure built during the development of the Century Downs REC project. The distribution to CDR’s non-controlling shareholders through non-controlling interest is part of a credit agreement between CRM and CDR. Cost recovery income of $0.2 million was received by CDR for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020.

Taxes

Income tax expense is recorded relative to the jurisdictions that recognize book earnings. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, we recognized income tax expense of $1.2 million on pre-tax income of $5.6 million, representing an effective income tax rate of 21.8%, compared to income tax expense of $3.1 million on pre-tax loss of ($55.8) million, representing an effective income tax rate of (5.6%) for the same period in 2020. For further discussion of our effective income tax rates and an analysis of our effective income tax rate compared to the US federal statutory income tax rate, see Note 8, “Income Taxes,” to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this report.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Our business is capital intensive, and we rely heavily on the ability of our casinos to generate operating cash flow. We use the cash flows that we generate to maintain operations, fund reinvestment in existing properties for both refurbishment and expansion projects, repay third party debt, and pursue additional growth via new development and acquisition opportunities. When necessary and available, we supplement the cash flows generated by our operations with either cash on hand or funds provided by bank borrowings or other debt or equity financing activities. In 2020 and the first half of 2021, our liquidity was adversely affected by temporary closures of our casinos, hotels and other facilities to comply with quarantines issued by governments to contain the spread of COVID-19, as discussed below.

As of June 30, 2021, our total debt under bank borrowings and other agreements net of $8.5 million related to deferred financing costs was $183.9 million, of which $179.4 million was long-term debt and $4.5 million was the current portion of long-term debt. The current portion relates to payments due within one year under our Macquarie Credit Agreement, the CPL credit facility and the UniCredit Term Loans. In June 2021, a $7.4 million line of credit with UniCredit was converted into a EUR 6.0 million term loan. For a description of our debt agreements, see Note 5, “Long-Term Debt,” to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this report. Net Debt was $112.2 million as of June 30, 2021 compared to $152.4 million as of June 30, 2020 The decrease in Net Debt was primarily due to a $28.5 million increase in cash and cash equivalents and repayment of the Macquarie Revolving Facility during 2020. For the definition and reconciliation of Net Debt to the most directly comparable US GAAP measure, see “Non-US GAAP Measures – Net Debt” above.

$	2,852	$	64	$	2,916

In addition to these payment obligations, we are required to pay annual rent payments under the Master Lease, which are $25.4 million in 2021, and under the CDR land lease financing obligation, which are $1.7 million in 2021 excluding variable rent payments. Cash payments related to the Master Lease and CDR land lease were $10.5 million and $0.9 million, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and $10.4 million and $0.9 million, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2020.

Cash Flows

At June 30, 2021, cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash totaled $80.4 million, and we had working capital (current assets minus current liabilities) of $53.7 million compared to cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash of $63.7 million and working capital of $34.5 million at December 31, 2020. The increase in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash from December 31, 2020 is due to $22.7 million of net cash provided by operating activities, offset by $3.5 million used to purchase property and equipment, $1.7 million in principal payments on borrowings, a $0.7 million distribution to non-controlling interests in CDR, $0.1 million in working capital adjustments paid to the buyer of Century Casino Calgary, and $0.1 million in exchange rate changes.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $22.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and net cash used in operating activities was $10.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. Our cash flows from operations have historically been positive and sufficient to fund ordinary operations. Cash flow from operations for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was negatively impacted by the suspension of our operations due to COVID-19. Cash flow from operations improved in the six months ended June 30, 2021 because our US facilities were open and operating. Trends in our operating cash flows tend to follow trends in earnings from operations, excluding non-cash charges. Please refer to the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q and to management’s discussion of the results of operations above in this Item 2 for a discussion of earnings from operations.

Net cash used in investing activities of $3.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 consisted of $0.8 million for slot machine purchases and $0.7 million in gaming floor upgrades at our West Virginia property; $0.6 million for slot machine purchases and $0.2 million in surveillance equipment at our Missouri properties; $1.1 million in other fixed asset additions at our properties and $0.1 million in working capital adjustments paid to the buyer of Century Casino Calgary, offset by less than $0.1 million in proceeds from the sale of fixed assets.

Net cash used in investing activities of $7.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 consisted of $0.4 million for slot machine purchases at our Colorado properties; $0.6 million for slot machine purchases, $0.2 million in rebranding signage and $1.7 million for player tracking systems at our Missouri properties; $0.2 million for surveillance upgrades at our West Virginia property; $0.4 million for table game equipment and $0.5 million in building updates at our Edmonton properties; $0.2 million for table game equipment at our Calgary properties; $0.2 million in casino improvements in Poland; $1.5 million in other fixed asset additions at our properties; and a $1.2 million payment related to the working capital adjustment in connection with the Acquisition.

Net cash used in financing activities of $2.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 consisted of $1.7 million in principal payments on borrowings and a $0.7 million distribution to non-controlling interests in CDR, offset by less than $0.1 million in proceeds from the exercise of stock options.

Net cash provided by financing activities of $15.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 consisted of $15.8 million in proceeds from borrowings on our long-term debt net of principal repayments, offset by $0.7 million in deferred financing costs and a $0.2 million distribution to non-controlling interests in CDR.

Common Stock Repurchase Program

Since March 2000, we have had a discretionary program to repurchase our outstanding common stock. The total amount remaining under the repurchase program was $14.7 million as of June 30, 2021. We did not repurchase any common stock during the six months ended June 30, 2021. The repurchase program has no set expiration or termination date.

Potential Sources of Liquidity and Short-Term Liquidity

Historically, our primary source of liquidity and capital resources has been cash flow from operations. When necessary and available, we supplement the cash flows generated by our operations with funds provided by bank borrowings or other debt or equity financing activities. In addition, we have generated cash from sales of existing casino operations and proceeds from the issuance of equity securities upon the exercise of stock options.

The COVID-19 pandemic has had an adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition and liquidity for 2020 and the first half of 2021. Between March 13, 2020 and March 17, 2020, we closed all of our casinos, hotels and other facilities to comply with quarantines issued by governments to contain the spread of COVID-19. Our Polish locations reopened on May 18, 2020, and our North American operations reopened between June 1, 2020 and June 17, 2020. Additional closures of our Canada and Poland casinos were required in December 2020 to comply with quarantines issued by governments. Our Poland casinos reopened in February 2021, closed in March 2021, and reopened again on May 28, 2021. Our Canada casino properties reopened on June 10, 2021. We estimate that the net cash outflows related to the Canada and Poland operations during the time they were fully suspended were, on average, approximately $2.7 million per month. We estimate that to replenish casino cash and cover short term cash needs at our Canada and Poland casinos required approximately $5.3 million. Our casinos have varied their operations based on the governmental health and safety requirements in the jurisdictions in which they are located. These include capacity and gaming floor restrictions and limited hours of operations.

We continue to monitor our liquidity in light of the uncertainty resulting from COVID-19. We plan to continue to manage marketing and operating expenditures where possible. Planned capital expenditures in 2021 include approximately $4.6 million in gaming equipment, renovations to various properties and security system upgrades. We also plan to refurbish a hotel near Century Casino Caruthersville at a cost of approximately $1.5 million. We continue to evaluate our planned capital expenditures in 2021 and will postpone projects to 2022 if necessary and permitted under our agreements.

In March 2020, as a proactive measure to increase our cash position and preserve financial flexibility in light of the uncertainty resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, we borrowed $9.95 million on our revolving credit facility with Macquarie and $7.4 million on our credit agreement with UniCredit. We repaid the Macquarie revolving credit facility in July 2020 except for a $50,000 letter of credit that we repaid in May 2021. The $7.4 million credit agreement with UniCredit was refinanced in June 2021 to a EUR 6.0 million term loan repayable through December 31, 2025. As of June 30, 2021, we had $10.0 million available to borrow on the Macquarie revolving credit facility. CPL currently has five credit agreements with mBank. In April 2021, CPL obtained a waiver from mBank that waives CPL’s compliance requirements through October 31, 2021 regarding its required cash inflows and financial covenants related to the five credit agreements. CPL’s PLN 5.0 million line of credit, which had no outstanding balance as of June 30, 2021, is available through October 28, 2021.

The duration and impact of the COVID-19 pandemic remains uncertain. We cannot predict the negative impacts that COVID-19 will have on our consumer demand, workforce, suppliers, contractors and other partners, and, whether future closures will be required. While the severity and duration of such business impacts cannot currently be estimated, the effects of COVID-19, governmental health and safety requirements and any future closures are expected to have a material impact on our business.

We may be required to raise additional capital to address our liquidity and capital needs. We have a shelf registration statement with the SEC that became effective in July 2020 under which we may issue, from time to time, up to $100 million of common stock, preferred stock, debt securities and other securities.

If necessary, we may seek to obtain further term loans, mortgages or lines of credit with commercial banks or other debt or equity financings to supplement our working capital and investing requirements. Our access to and cost of financing will depend on, among other things, global economic conditions, conditions in the financing markets, the availability of sufficient amounts of financing, our prospects and our credit ratings. A financing transaction may not be available on terms acceptable to us, or at all, and a financing transaction may be dilutive to our current stockholders. The failure to raise the funds necessary to fund our debt service and rent obligations and finance our operations and other capital requirements could have a material and adverse effect on our business, financial condition and liquidity.

In addition, we expect our US domestic cash resources will be sufficient to fund our US operating activities and cash commitments for investing and financing activities. While we currently do not have an intent nor foresee a need to repatriate funds, we could require more capital in the US than is generated by our US operations for operations, capital expenditures or significant discretionary activities such as acquisitions of businesses and share repurchases. If so, we could elect to repatriate earnings from foreign jurisdictions in the form of a cash dividend, which would generally be exempt from taxation with the exception of the adverse impact of withholding taxes. We also could elect to raise capital in the US through debt or equity issuances. We estimate that approximately $24.6 million of our total $80.2 million in cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 2021 is held by our foreign subsidiaries and is not available to fund US operations unless repatriated.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.

We had no material changes in our exposure to market risks from that previously reported in Item 7A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures – Our management, with the participation of our principal executive officers and principal financial officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, for the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, our principal executive officers and principal financial officer have concluded that as of the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting –There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the three months ended June 30, 2021 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
