Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)

1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
Basis of Presentation
Churchill Downs Incorporated (the "Company", "we", "our") financial statements are presented in conformity with the requirements of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and consequently do not include all of the disclosures normally required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") or those normally made in our Annual Report on Form 10-K. The December 31, 2022 Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet data was derived from audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP.
The following information is unaudited. All per share amounts assume dilution unless otherwise noted. This report should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.
In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of this information have been made, and all such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature.
We conduct our business through three reportable segments: Live and Historical Racing, TwinSpires, and Gaming. We aggregate our other businesses as well as certain corporate operations, and other immaterial joint ventures, in All Other. We report net revenue and operating expense associated with these reportable segments in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income.
Stock Split
Effective May 22, 2023, the Company's common stock was split two-for-one (the "Stock Split") with a proportionate increase in the number of its authorized shares of common stock. All share and per-share amounts have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the effects of the Stock Split.
Refer to Note 8, Shareholders' Equity for further information on the Stock Split.
Presque Isle Impairment
During the second quarter, we evaluated economic conditions subsequent to the date of our annual impairment assessment on April 1, 2023, including competition in the market and inflationary pressures, which increased during the second quarter of 2023, and impacted the performance and outlook of Presque Isle Downs and Casino ("Presque Isle"). As a result, the Company concluded that a trigger event for impairment testing occurred related to the Presque Isle gaming rights, trademark, and the reporting unit's goodwill at the end of the second quarter. Based on the 2023 trigger event, the Company evaluated and subsequently updated the projected cash flows and discount rate to reflect the current environment. As a result, the Company recognized a non-cash impairment charge of $24.5 million in the second quarter of 2023 for the Presque Isle gaming rights and trademark.
Refer to Note 5, Asset Impairments for further information on the impairment.
Arlington Sale
On February 15, 2023, we closed on the sale of the Arlington International Racecourse property ("Arlington") located in Arlington Heights, Illinois. We sold 326-acres to the Chicago Bears for $197.2 million. For more information, refer to Note 4, Dispositions.
Acquisition of Peninsula Pacific Entertainment
On November 1, 2022, the Company completed the acquisition of substantially all of the assets of Peninsula Pacific Entertainment LLC ("P2E") with a base purchase price of $2.75 billion ("P2E Transaction") subject to working capital and other purchase price adjustments. The P2E assets acquired included Colonial Downs Racetrack ("Colonial Downs") and six Historical Racing Machine ("HRM") entertainment venues in Virginia, del Lago Resort & Casino in New York ("del Lago"), and Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Iowa ("Hard Rock Sioux City"), as well as the development rights for the Dumfries and Emporia HRM facilities in Virginia, up to five additional HRM entertainment venues in Virginia, and the potential for ONE Casino and Resort in Virginia in collaboration with Urban One, Inc.
Refer to Note 3, Acquisitions for further information on the transaction.

Acquisitions of Chasers Poker Room and Ellis Park
On September 2, 2022, the Company completed the acquisition of Chasers Poker Room ("Chasers") in Salem, New Hampshire (the "Chasers Transaction"). As part of the transaction, we made an initial payment to the sellers for rights to operate the poker room and to build an HRM venue. Additional payments will be made once all necessary permits are obtained, and the planned historical racing entertainment venue is opened. The Company plans to develop an expanded charitable gaming facility in New Hampshire to accommodate HRMs and table games.
On September 26, 2022, we completed the acquisition of Ellis Park Racing and Gaming ("Ellis Park") in Henderson, Kentucky, from Enchantment Holdings, LLC, an affiliate of Laguna Development Corporation, for total consideration of $79.0 million in cash, subject to certain working capital and other purchase price adjustments (the "Ellis Park Transaction").
Refer to Note 3, Acquisitions for further information on the transactions.
Exit of the Direct Online Sports and Casino Business
On February 24, 2022 the Company announced plans to exit the direct online sports and casino business. The Company has exited the direct online Sports and Casino business in every state except for Arizona. The Company plans to maintain its retail Sports operations and has monetized two of its online market access licenses.
2. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
Recent Accounting Pronouncements - effective in 2023 or thereafter
In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting, which provides optional expedients and exceptions to applying the guidance on contract modifications, hedge accounting, and other transactions, and to simplify the accounting for transitioning from the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") and other interbank offered rates to alternative reference rates. The guidance was effective upon issuance. In December 2022, the FASB deferred the date for which this guidance can be applied from December 31, 2022 to December 31, 2024. The use of LIBOR was phased out at the end of 2021, although the phase-out of U.S. dollar LIBOR for existing agreements was delayed until June 2023. During the second quarter of 2023, the Company completed the transition of its financing from LIBOR to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR"). These transition activities did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
3. ACQUISITIONS
Chasers Poker Room
On September 2, 2022, the Company completed the Chasers Transaction which was treated as an asset acquisition because substantially all the value of the gross assets acquired was concentrated in the gaming rights. The Company made an initial payment at closing and recorded a liability for the remaining payments due on a future date. In conjunction with the acquisition, the Company recorded an $82.2 million gaming rights intangible asset which represented its fair value at the date of acquisition.
The fair value of the gaming rights acquired in the Chasers Transaction was determined using the Greenfield Method, which is an income approach methodology that calculates the present value of the gaming rights intangible asset based on a projected cash flow stream. This method assumes that the gaming rights intangible asset provides the opportunity to develop a gaming or historical racing facility in a specified region, and that the present value of the projected cash flows is a result of the realization of advantages contained in these rights. Under this methodology, the acquirer is expected to absorb all start-up costs, as well as incur all expenses pertaining to the acquisition and/or the creation of all tangible and intangible assets. The estimated future revenue, future operating expenses, start-up costs, and discount rate were the primary inputs in the valuation. The gaming rights intangible asset was assigned an indefinite useful life based on the Company's expected use of the asset and determination that no legal, regulatory, contractual, competitive, economic, or other factors limit the useful life of the gaming rights.

Ellis Park
On September 26, 2022, the Company completed the Ellis Park Transaction for total consideration of $79.0 million in cash, plus $3.5 million in working capital and other preliminary purchase price adjustments. The fair values of the Ellis Park Transaction were based upon preliminary valuations. Estimates and assumptions used in such valuations are subject to change, which could be significant, within the measurement period up to one year from the acquisition date. The areas of the preliminary valuations that are not yet finalized relate to the amounts for income taxes, working capital adjustments and the final amount of residual goodwill. The Company expects to continue to obtain information to assist in determining fair values of net assets acquired at the acquisition date during the measurement period. The preliminary fair values as of June 30, 2023 for the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, net of cash acquired of $1.4 million, at the date of acquisition are as follows: property and equipment of $19.3 million, indefinite-lived gaming rights of $47.4 million, indefinite-lived trademark of $3.6 million, goodwill of $9.3 million, and net working capital of $1.5 million.
The Company has not included other disclosures regarding the Chasers or Ellis Park Transactions as these transactions are immaterial to our business.
P2E Transaction
On November 1, 2022, the Company completed the acquisition of substantially all the assets of P2E for preliminary purchase consideration of $2,835.9 million, net of cash acquired. The P2E assets acquired included Colonial Downs and six HRM entertainment venues in Virginia, del Lago in New York, and Hard Rock Sioux City in Iowa, as well as the development rights for Dumfries and Emporia HRM facilities in Virginia, up to five additional HRM entertainment venues in Virginia, and the potential for ONE Casino & Resort in Virginia in collaboration with Urban One.
The following table summarizes the preliminary fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, net of cash acquired of $126.4 million, as of November 1, 2022:

The property and equipment acquired primarily relates to land, buildings, equipment, and furniture and fixtures. The fair value of the land was determined using the market approach and the fair values of the remaining property and equipment were primarily determined using the cost replacement method which is based on replacement or reproduction costs of the assets.
The fair value of the gaming rights was determined using the Greenfield Method, which is an income approach methodology that calculates the present value of the overall business enterprise based on a projected cash flow stream. This method assumes that the gaming rights intangible assets provide the opportunity to develop a casino or historical racing facility in a specified region, and that the present value of the projected cash flows are a result of the realization of advantages contained in these rights. Under this methodology, the acquirer is expected to absorb all start-up costs, as well as incur all expenses pertaining to the acquisition and/or the creation of all tangible and intangible assets. The estimated future revenue and operating expenses, start-up costs, and discount rates were the primary assumptions and estimates in the valuation of the gaming rights. The gaming rights intangible assets were assigned an indefinite useful life based on the Company's expected use of the assets and determination that no legal, regulatory, contractual, competitive, economic, or other factors limit the useful life of the gaming rights.
The trademark intangible assets were valued using the relief-from-royalty method of the income approach, which estimates the fair value of the intangible assets by discounting the fair value of the hypothetical royalty payments a market participant would be willing to pay to enjoy the benefits of the assets. The estimated future revenue, royalty rates, and discount rates were the primary assumptions and estimates in the valuation of the trademarks. The trademarks were assigned an indefinite useful life based on the Company’s intention to keep the trademarks for an indefinite period of time.
Goodwill of $347.8 million was recognized due to the expected contribution of P2E to the Company's overall business strategy. The goodwill was assigned to the Gaming segment in the amount of $129.1 million and to the Live and Historical Racing segment in the amount of $218.7 million and is mostly deductible for tax purposes.
Estimates and assumptions used in such valuations are subject to change, which could be significant, within the measurement period up to one year from the acquisition date. The preliminary purchase consideration is subject to adjustment upon finalization of customary post-closing adjustments related to working capital. The primary areas of the preliminary valuation that are not yet finalized relate to the fair values of amounts for income taxes, adjustments to working capital, and the final amount of residual goodwill. The Company expects to continue to obtain information to assist in determining fair values of net assets acquired at the acquisition date during the measurement period.
The following unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information for the Company has been prepared assuming the P2E Transaction had occurred as of January 1, 2021. The unaudited pro forma financial information is not necessarily indicative of either future results of operations or results of operations that might have been achieved had the acquisition been consummated as of January 1, 2021.

Arlington
On February 15, 2023, we closed on the sale of the Arlington property in Arlington Heights, Illinois, to the Chicago Bears for $197.2 million. We received net proceeds of $195.7 million for the 326-acres and recognized a gain of $114.0 million on the sale, which is included in other income in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. Certain assets of Arlington totaling $82.0 million were classified held for sale as of December 31, 2022 on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Arlington’s operations and assets are included in All Other in our consolidated results.
The Company executed a forward like-kind exchange transaction by purchasing certain property as part of the P2E Transaction for $197.2 million, which qualified as an Internal Revenue Code §1031 transaction. An exchange accommodation titleholder ("EAT"), a type of variable interest entity, was used to facilitate this reverse like-kind exchange. The Company determined that it is the primary beneficiary of the EAT, thus the property held by the EAT has been consolidated and recorded in property and equipment, net on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
As of June 30, 2023, the Company has a $27.8 million deferred tax liability related to the Arlington sale on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
5. ASSET IMPAIRMENTS
Presque Isle Impairment
We performed our annual goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets impairment analysis for Presque Isle as of April 1, 2023. Based on the results of this analysis, no impairments for Presque Isle were identified. Subsequent to the annual test, we continued to evaluate economic conditions, including competition in the market and inflationary pressures, which increased during the second quarter of 2023, and impacted the performance and outlook of Presque Isle. As a result, the Company concluded that a trigger event for impairment testing occurred related to the Presque Isle gaming rights, trademark, and the reporting unit's goodwill at the end of the second quarter.
Based on the 2023 trigger event, the Company evaluated and subsequently updated the projected cash flows and discount rate to reflect the current environment. As a result, the Company recognized a non-cash impairment charge of $24.5 million in the second quarter of 2023 for the Presque Isle gaming rights and trademark, which are included in the Gaming segment. The fair value of the Presque Isle gaming rights was determined using the Greenfield Method, an income approach methodology that calculates the present value based on a projected cash flow stream. The fair values of the trademark was determined by using the relief-from-royalty method of the income approach.
The fair value of the Presque Isle reporting unit's goodwill was determined under the market and income valuation approaches using inputs primarily related to discounted projected cash flows and price multiples of comparable publicly traded companies. No impairment was recognized for the Presque Isle goodwill in second quarter of 2023.

We concluded that the fair values of our reporting units exceeded their carrying values, and therefore no impairments were identified.

9. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION PLANS
We have stock-based employee compensation plans with awards outstanding under the Churchill Downs Incorporated 2016 Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan (the "2016 Plan") and the Executive Long-Term Incentive Compensation Plan, which was adopted pursuant to the 2016 Plan. Our total stock-based compensation expense, which includes expenses related to restricted stock awards ("RSAs"), restricted stock unit awards ("RSUs"), performance share unit awards ("PSUs"), and stock options associated with our employee stock purchase plan was $8.1 million and $16.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and $7.4 million and $14.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively.
During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company awarded RSUs to employees, RSUs and PSUs to certain named executive officers ("NEOs"), and RSAs and RSUs to directors. The vesting criteria for the PSU awards granted in 2023 were based on a three-year service period with two performance conditions and a market condition related to relative total shareholder return ("TSR") consistent with prior year grants. The total compensation cost we will recognize under the PSUs is determined using the Monte Carlo valuation methodology, which factors in the value of the TSR market condition when determining the grant date fair value of the PSU. Compensation cost for each PSU is recognized during the performance and service period based on the probable achievement of the two performance criteria. The PSUs are converted into shares of our common stock at the time the PSU award value is finalized.
A summary of the RSAs, RSUs and PSUs granted during 2023 is presented below (units in thousands):

Credit Agreement
At June 30, 2023, the Company’s senior secured credit facility (as amended from time to time, the “Credit Agreement") consisted of a $1.2 billion revolving credit facility (the "Revolver"), $300.0 million senior secured term loan B-1 due 2028 (the "Term Loan B-1"), $1.3 billion senior secured term loan A due 2027 (the "Term Loan A"), and $100.0 million swing line commitment. Certain amendments to the Credit Agreement entered into during 2022 and 2023, respectively, are described below.
On April 13, 2022, we amended the Credit Agreement to extend the maturity date of its Revolver to April 13, 2027, to increase the commitments under the existing revolving credit facility from $700.0 million to $1.2 billion, and to increase the swing line commitment from $50.0 million to $100.0 million. This amendment also provided for the senior secured Term Loan A due April 13, 2027 in the amount of $800.0 million, which was drawn on November 1, 2022 as part of the financing for the P2E Transaction. Refer to Note 3, Acquisitions for more information regarding the P2E Transaction. The Company capitalized $3.2 million of debt issuance costs associated with the Revolver commitment increase and $6.4 million of debt issuance costs associated with the Term Loan A which are being amortized as interest expense over the 5-year term.
On February 24, 2023, we amended our Credit Agreement to increase the loans under the existing Term Loan A due 2027 from $800.0 million to $1.3 billion and made certain other changes to the existing credit agreement. The Company used the net proceeds from the borrowings under the increased Term Loan A to repay outstanding loans under its Revolver, pay related transaction fees and expenses, and for general corporate purposes. The Company capitalized $2.6 million of debt issuance costs associated with the increased Term Loan A which are being amortized as interest expense over the remainder of the 5-year term.
The Company is required to pay a commitment fee on the unused portion of the Revolver as determined by a pricing grid based on the consolidated total net secured leverage ratio of the Company. For the period ended June 30, 2023, the Company's commitment fee rate was 0.25%.
The Revolver and Term Loan A bear interest at SOFR plus 10 basis points, plus a variable applicable margin which is determined by the Company's net leverage ratio. As of June 30, 2023, that applicable margin was 150 basis points. The Term Loan B-1 bears interest at SOFR plus 210 basis points.
The Company completed the transition of its financing from LIBOR to SOFR during the second quarter of 2023. These transition activities did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
2031 Senior Notes
On April 25, 2023, the Company completed an offering of $600.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 6.750% senior unsecured notes that mature on April 25, 2031 (the "2031 Notes") in a private offering to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A that is exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and to certain non-U.S. persons in accordance with Regulation S under the Securities Act. The Company used a portion of the net proceeds from the offering to repay indebtedness outstanding under its Term Loan B Facility due 2024 and to fund related transaction fees and expenses, working capital and other general corporate purposes. The Company recognized a loss on extinguishment on Term Loan B of $1.3 million, which is included in miscellaneous, net in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. The Company capitalized $10.6 million of debt issuance costs associated with the 2031 Senior Notes which are being amortized as interest expense over the remainder of the 8-year term.
The 2031 Notes were issued at 100% of the principal amount, plus interest deemed to have accrued from April 25, 2023, with interest payable in arrears on May 1st and November 1st of each year, commencing on November 1, 2023. The 2031 Notes will vote as one class under the indenture governing the 2031 Senior Notes.
The 2031 Senior Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture, entered into on April 25, 2023 (the "2031 Indenture"), among the Company, certain subsidiaries of the Company as guarantors, and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee. The Company may redeem some or all of the 2031 Senior Notes at any time at redemption prices set forth in the 2031 Indenture. The terms of the 2031 Indenture, among other things, limit the ability of the Company to: (i) incur additional debt and issue preferred stock, (ii) pay dividends or make other restricted payments, (iii) make certain investments, (iv) create liens, (v) allow restrictions on the ability of certain of our subsidiaries to pay dividends or make other payments, (vi) sell assets, (vii) merge or consolidate with other entities, and (viii) enter into transactions with affiliates.
In connection with the issuance of the 2031 Notes, the Company and the guarantors entered into a Registration Rights Agreement to register any notes under the Securities Act for resale that are not freely tradable 366 days from April 25, 2023.

11. REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS
Performance Obligations
As of June 30, 2023, our Live and Historical Racing segment had remaining performance obligations on contracts with a duration greater than one year relating to television rights, sponsorships, personal seat licenses, and admissions, with an aggregate transaction price of $126.8 million. The revenue we expect to recognize on these remaining performance obligations is $1.5 million for the remainder of 2023, $48.9 million in 2024, $38.1 million in 2025, and the remainder thereafter.
As of June 30, 2023, our remaining performance obligations on contracts with a duration greater than one year in segments other than Live and Historical Racing were not material.
Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities
As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, contract assets were not material.
As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, contract liabilities were $43.5 million and $58.7 million, respectively, which are included in current deferred revenue, non-current deferred revenue, and accrued expense in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Contract liabilities primarily relate to the Live and Historical Racing segment and the decrease was primarily due to revenue recognized for fulfilled performance obligations. We recognized $38.8 million and $42.4 million of revenue during the three months and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, which was included in the contract liabilities balance at December 31, 2022. We recognized $43.6 million and $46.8 million of revenue during the three months and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, which was included in the contract liabilities balance at December 31, 2021.
Disaggregation of Revenue
The Company has included its disaggregated revenue disclosures as follows: 
For the Live and Historical Racing segment, revenue is disaggregated between Churchill Downs Racetrack and historical racing properties given that our racing facilities revenues primarily revolve around live racing events while our historical racing properties revenues primarily revolve around historical racing. This segment is also disaggregated by location given the geographic economic factors that affect the revenue of service offerings. Within the Live and Historical racing segment, revenue is further disaggregated between live and simulcast racing, historical racing, racing event-related services, and other services.
For the TwinSpires segment, revenue is disaggregated between live and simulcast racing, gaming, and other services.
For the Gaming segment, revenue is disaggregated by location given the geographic economic factors that affect the revenue of gaming service offerings. Within the Gaming segment, revenue is further disaggregated between live and simulcast racing, racing event-related services, gaming, and other services.
We believe that these disclosures depict how the amount, nature, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows are affected by economic factors. The tables below present net revenue from external customers and intercompany revenue from each of our segments:

Investments in and advances to unconsolidated affiliates as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 primarily consisted of a 61.3% interest in Rivers Casino Des Plaines ("Rivers Des Plaines"), a 50% interest in Miami Valley Gaming and Racing ("MVG"), and other immaterial joint ventures.
Rivers Des Plaines
The ownership of Rivers Des Plaines is comprised of the following: (1) the Company owns 61.3%, (2) High Plaines Gaming, LLC ("High Plaines"), an affiliate of Rush Street Gaming, LLC, owns 36.0%, and (3) Casino Investors, LLC owns 2.7%. Both the Company and High Plaines have participating rights over Rivers Des Plaines, and both must consent to operating, investing and financing decisions. As a result, we account for Rivers Des Plaines using the equity method. As of June 30, 2023, the net aggregate basis difference between the Company’s investment in Rivers Des Plaines and the amounts of the underlying equity in net assets was $832.5 million.
Our investment in Rivers Des Plaines was $531.4 million and $544.9 million as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. The Company received distributions from Rivers Des Plaines of $68.2 million and $61.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
Miami Valley Gaming
Delaware North Companies Gaming & Entertainment Inc. ("DNC") owns the remaining 50% interest in MVG. Since both the Company and DNC have participating rights over MVG, and both must consent to MVG's operating, investing and financing decisions, we account for MVG using the equity method.
Our investment in MVG was $113.3 million and $114.4 million as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. The Company received distributions from MVG of $23.5 million and $16.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

14. FAIR VALUE OF ASSETS AND LIABILITIES
We endeavor to utilize the best available information in measuring fair value. Financial assets and liabilities are classified based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The following methods and assumptions are used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate.
Restricted Cash
Our restricted cash accounts held in money market and interest-bearing accounts qualify for Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy, which includes unadjusted quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets.
Debt
The fair value of the Company’s 2031 Senior Notes, 2030 Senior Notes, 2028 Senior Notes, and 2027 Senior Notes are estimated based on unadjusted quoted prices for identical or similar liabilities in markets that are not active and as such are Level 2 measurements. The fair values of the Company's Term Loan B, Term Loan B-1, Term Loan A, and Revolver under the Credit Agreement approximate the gross carrying value of the variable rate debt and as such are Level 2 measurements.

15. CONTINGENCIES
We may be involved in litigation arising in the ordinary course of conducting business. We carry insurance for workers' compensation claims from our employees and general liability for claims from independent contractors, customers and guests. We are self-insured up to an aggregate stop loss for our general liability and workers' compensation coverages.
We review all litigation on an ongoing basis when making accrual and disclosure decisions. For certain legal proceedings, we cannot reasonably estimate losses or a range of loss, if any, particularly for proceedings that are in the early stages of development or where the plaintiffs seek indeterminate damages. Various factors, including but not limited to, the outcome of potentially lengthy discovery and the resolution of important factual questions, may need to be determined before probability can be established or before a loss or range of loss can be reasonably estimated. In accordance with current accounting standards for loss contingencies and based upon information currently known to us, we establish reserves for litigation when it is probable that a loss associated with a claim or proceeding has been incurred and the amount of the loss or range of loss can be reasonably estimated. When no amount within the range of loss is a better estimate than any other amount, we accrue the minimum amount of the estimable loss. To the extent that such litigation against us may have an exposure to a loss in excess of the amount we have accrued, we believe that such excess would not be material to our consolidated financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. Legal fees are expensed as incurred.
If the loss contingency in question is not both probable and reasonably estimable, we do not establish an accrual and the matter will continue to be monitored for any developments that would make the loss contingency both probable and reasonably estimable. In the event that a legal proceeding results in a substantial judgment against us, or settlement by us, there can be no assurance that any resulting liability or financial commitment would not have a material adverse impact on our business.

17. SEGMENT INFORMATION
We manage our operations through three reportable segments: Live and Historical Racing, TwinSpires, and Gaming. Our operating segments reflect the internal management reporting used by our chief operating decision maker to evaluate results of operations and to assess performance and allocate resources.
We have aggregated Arlington as well as certain corporate operations, and other immaterial joint ventures in All Other to reconcile to consolidated results.
Eliminations include the elimination of intersegment transactions. We utilize non-GAAP measures, including EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) and Adjusted EBITDA. Our chief operating decision maker utilizes Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate segment performance, develop strategy and allocate resources. Adjusted EBITDA includes the following adjustments:
Adjusted EBITDA includes our portion of EBITDA from our equity investments.
Adjusted EBITDA excludes:
Transaction expense, net which includes:
Acquisition, disposition, and property sale related charges;
Direct online Sports and Casino business exit costs; and
Other transaction expense, including legal, accounting, and other deal-related expense;
Stock-based compensation expense;

On June 26, 2023, the Company's management agreement for Lady Luck expired and was not renewed. The Company completed the sale of substantially all of its assets at Lady Luck for an immaterial amount.
As of December 31, 2021, Arlington ceased racing and simulcast operations and the property was sold on February 15, 2023 to the Chicago Bears. Arlington's results and exit costs in 2022 and 2023 are treated as an adjustment to EBITDA.
We utilize the Adjusted EBITDA metric to provide a more accurate measure of our core operating results and enable management and investors to evaluate and compare from period to period our operating performance in a meaningful and consistent manner. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to operating income as an indicator of performance, as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity, or as an alternative to any other measure provided in accordance with GAAP. Our calculation of Adjusted EBITDA may be different from the calculation used by other companies and, therefore, comparability may be limited. For segment reporting, Adjusted EBITDA includes intercompany revenue and expense totals that are eliminated in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income.
The tables below present net revenue from external customers, Adjusted EBITDA by segment and reconciles comprehensive income to Adjusted EBITDA:

This report contains various "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the "Act"), which provides certain "safe harbor" provisions for forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements made in this report are made pursuant to the Act. The reader is cautioned that such forward-looking statements are based on information available at the time and / or management’s good faith belief with respect to future events, and are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual performance or results to differ materially from those expressed in the statements. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date that the statement was made.

lack of confidence in the integrity of our core businesses or any deterioration in our reputation;
loss of key or highly skilled personnel, as well as general disruptions in the general labor market;
online security risk, including cyber-security breaches, or loss or misuse of our stored information as a result of a breach, including customers’ personal information, could lead to government enforcement actions or other litigation;
the impact of significant competition, and the expectation the competition levels will increase;
changes in consumer preferences, attendance, wagering, and sponsorships;
risks associated with equity investments, strategic alliances and other third-party agreements;
inability to respond to rapid technological changes in a timely manner;
concentration and evolution of slot machine and historical racing machine ("HRM") manufacturing and other technology conditions that could impose additional costs;
failure to enter into or maintain agreements with industry constituents, including horsemen and other racetracks; inability to successfully focus on market access and retail operations for our TwinSpires Sports and Casino business and effectively compete; online security risk, including cyber-security breaches, or loss or misuse of our stored information as a result of a breach;
reliance on our technology services and catastrophic events and system failures disrupting our operations;
inability to identify, complete, or fully realize the benefits of, our proposed acquisitions, divestitures, development of new venues or the expansion of existing facilities on time, on budget, or as planned;
difficulty in integrating recent or future acquisitions into our operations;
cost overruns and other uncertainties associated with the development of new venues and the expansion of existing facilities;
general risks related to real estate ownership and significant expenditures, including risks related to environmental liabilities;
personal injury litigation related to injuries occurring at our racetracks;
compliance with the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act or applicable money-laundering regulations;

payment-related risks, such as risk associated with fraudulent credit card and debit card use;
work stoppages and labor issues;
risks related to pending or future legal proceedings and other actions;
highly regulated operations and changes in the regulatory environment could adversely affect our business;
restrictions in our debt facilities limiting our flexibility to operate our business;
failure to comply with the financial ratios and other covenants in our debt facilities and other indebtedness;
increase to interest rates (due to inflation or otherwise);
disruptions in the credit markets or changes to our credit ratings may adversely affect our business;

other factors described in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and in other filings we make with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
We do not undertake any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.
The following information is unaudited. Tabular dollars are in millions, except per share amounts. All per share amounts assume dilution unless otherwise noted.

Our Business
Churchill Downs Incorporated ("CDI" or the "Company") has been creating extraordinary entertainment experiences for nearly 150 years, beginning with the Company’s most iconic and enduring asset, the Kentucky Derby. Headquartered in Louisville, Kentucky, CDI has expanded through the development of live and historical racing entertainment venues, the growth of the TwinSpires horse racing online wagering business and the operation and development of regional casino gaming properties.
We conduct our business through three reportable segments: Live and Historical Racing, TwinSpires, and Gaming. We aggregate our other businesses as well as certain corporate operations, and other immaterial joint ventures, in All Other. For additional information about our segments, refer to Note 17, Segment Information, in the notes to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Stock Split
Effective May 22, 2023, the Company's common stock was split two-for-one with a proportionate increase in the number of its authorized shares of common stock.
Lady Luck Casino Nemacolin
On June 26, 2023, our management agreement for Lady Luck Casino Nemacolin ("Lady Luck") in Farmington, Pennsylvania expired and was not renewed. The company completed the sale of substantially all of its assets at Lady Luck for an immaterial amount.
Presque Isle Impairment
During the second quarter, we evaluated economic conditions subsequent to the date of our annual impairment assessment on April 1, 2023, including competition in the market and inflationary pressures, which increased during the second quarter of 2023, and impacted the performance and outlook of Presque Isle Downs and Casino ("Presque Isle"). As a result, the Company concluded that a trigger event for impairment testing occurred related to the Presque Isle gaming rights, trademark, and the reporting unit's goodwill at the end of the second quarter. Based on the 2023 trigger event, the Company evaluated and subsequently updated the projected cash flows and discount rate to reflect the current environment. As a result, the Company recognized a non-cash impairment charge of $24.5 million in the second quarter of 2023 for the Presque Isle gaming rights and trademark.
Arlington Sale
On February 15, 2023, we closed on the sale of the Arlington property in Arlington Heights, Illinois. We sold 326-acres to the Chicago Bears for $197.2 million. The net proceeds of $195.7 million were used to pay down the outstanding balance amount on our Revolver that was drawn on to fund the acquisition of substantially all the assets of Peninsula Pacific Entertainment ("P2E").
Financing Transactions
On April 25, 2023, we completed an offering of $600.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 6.750% senior notes that mature in 2031. The Company used a portion of the net proceeds from the offering to repay indebtedness outstanding under its Term Loan B Facility due 2024 and to fund related transaction fees and expenses, working capital and other general corporate purposes.
On February 24, 2023, we entered into an incremental joinder to our senior secured credit agreement to increase the loans under the existing Term Loan A credit facility due 2027 by $500.0 million. This joinder increases the existing Term Loan A credit facility due 2027 from $800.0 million to $1.3 billion and makes certain other changes to the existing credit agreement. The Company used the net proceeds from the borrowings under the increased Term Loan A to repay outstanding loans under its senior secured revolving credit facility, pay related transaction fees and expenses and for general corporate purposes.
Transactions Update
On August 11, 2022, we entered into an agreement to sell 49% of United Tote, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company to NYRA Content Management Solutions, LLC, a subsidiary of the New York Racing Association. The transaction is subject to usual and customary closing conditions, including applicable regulatory notices and approvals, and is expected to close during 2023.
On December 19, 2022, the Company announced that it entered into a definitive agreement under which we would acquire all the outstanding equity interests of Exacta Systems, LLC ("Exacta") for total consideration of $250.0 million in cash (the "Exacta Transaction"). The Exacta Transaction is subject to certain working capital and other purchase price adjustments and is expected to close during 2023.

Key Indicators to Evaluate Business Results and Financial Condition
Our management monitors a variety of key indicators to evaluate our business results and financial condition. These indicators include changes in net revenue, operating expense, operating income, earnings per share, outstanding debt balance, operating cash flow and capital spend.
Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). We also use non-GAAP measures, including EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) and Adjusted EBITDA. We believe that the use of Adjusted EBITDA as a key performance measure of results of operations enables management and investors to evaluate and compare from period to period our operating performance in a meaningful and consistent manner. Our chief operating decision maker utilizes Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate segment performance, develop strategy and allocate resources. Adjusted EBITDA is a supplemental measure of our performance that is not required by, or presented in accordance with, GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income (as determined in accordance with GAAP) as a measure of our operating results.
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, adjusted for the following:
Adjusted EBITDA includes our portion of EBITDA from our equity investments.
Adjusted EBITDA excludes:
Transaction expense, net which includes:
Acquisition, disposition, and property sale related charges;
Direct online Sports and Casino business exit costs; and
Other transaction expense, including legal, accounting and other deal-related expense;
Stock-based compensation expense;
Rivers Des Plaines' impact on our investments in unconsolidated affiliates from:
The impact of changes in fair value of interest rate swaps, and
Legal reserves and transaction costs;
Asset impairments;
Gain on property and asset sales;
Legal reserves;
Pre-opening expense; and
Other charges, recoveries and expenses
On June 26, 2023, the Company's management agreement for Lady Luck expired and was not renewed. The Company completed the sale of substantially all of its assets at Lady Luck for an immaterial amount.
As of December 31, 2021, Arlington ceased racing and simulcast operations and the property was sold on February 15, 2023 to the Chicago Bears. Arlington's results and exit costs in 2022 and 2023 are treated as an adjustment to EBITDA.
For segment reporting, Adjusted EBITDA includes intercompany revenue and expense totals that are eliminated in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. See the Reconciliation of Comprehensive Income to Adjusted EBITDA included in this section for additional information.
Governmental Regulations and Legislative Changes
We are subject to various federal, state and international laws and regulations that affect our businesses. The ownership, operation and management of our Live and Historical Racing, TwinSpires, and Gaming segments, as well as our other operations, are subject to regulation under the laws and regulations of each of the jurisdictions in which we operate. The ownership, operation and management of our businesses and properties are also subject to legislative actions at both the federal and state level. The following update on our regulatory and legislative actions should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, including Part I - Item 1, "Business" for a discussion of regulatory and legislative changes.
Specific State Gaming Regulations
Kentucky
In 2023, the Kentucky General Assembly passed a bill to authorize the Kentucky Horse Racing Commission to regulate sports betting. Only licensed racetracks and their extensions can operate retail sports betting. Each track is allowed to contract with up

Adjusted EBITDA
We believe that the use of Adjusted EBITDA as a key performance measure of the results of operations enables management and investors to evaluate and compare from period to period our operating performance in a meaningful and consistent manner. Adjusted EBITDA is a supplemental measure of our performance that is not required by or presented in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to operating income as an indicator of performance, as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity, or as an alternative to any other measure provided in accordance with GAAP.

The remaining properties contributed a $1.9 million increase in Adjusted EBITDA. These increases were partially offset by a $5.6 million decrease for non-Derby Week racing operations primarily due to the decision to move a portion of the Churchill Downs Racetrack Spring Meet to Ellis Park in June 2023.
TwinSpires Adjusted EBITDA was flat for the comparative periods. Sports and Casino Adjusted EBITDA was up $1.9 million as a result of an increase from retail sports betting and from significant cost reductions associated with the exit of the direct online Sports and Casino business in the first quarter of 2022. United Tote Adjusted EBITDA was up $2.0 million primarily as a result of the incremental revenue from the B2B Horse Racing expansion strategy associated with totalisator fees. These increases were offset by a $3.9 million reduction in TwinSpires Adjusted EBITDA as a result of lower retail Horse Racing handle due to industry race day cancellations and the decision to move a portion of the Churchill Downs Racetrack Spring Meet to Ellis Park in June 2023 as well as higher content related expenses and higher advance deposit wagering taxes in certain jurisdictions.
Gaming Adjusted EBITDA increased $16.6 million driven by a $21.4 million increase attributable to the New York and Iowa properties acquired in the P2E Transaction, partially offset by a $4.8 million decrease from our other gaming properties.

Significant items affecting the comparability of our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets include:
Total assets increased $371.8 million primarily driven by increased cash and cash equivalents, capital expenditures and other current assets, partially offset by the sale of our Arlington property and the Presque Isle impairment in 2023.
Total liabilities increased $69.5 million primarily driven by increased income tax liabilities and increased accounts payable primarily due to timing of racing related payments, partially offset by decreased dividends payable due to the payment of our annual dividends.
Total shareholders’ equity increased $302.3 million driven by increased net income and stock-based compensation.
Liquidity and Capital Resources

Financing activities(47.7)1,058.5 (1,106.2)
Six Months Ended June 30, 2023, Compared to the Six Months Ended June 30, 2022
Cash flows from operating activities increased $21.8 million driven by increased operating income and increased distributions from unconsolidated affiliates. These increases were partially offset by an increase in net interest paid and net income taxes paid. We anticipate that cash flows from operations over the next twelve months will be adequate to fund our business operations and capital expenditures.
Cash flows from investing activities decreased $223.6 million driven by increased capital project expenditures in 2023 primarily at Churchill Downs Racetrack and for the Dumfries project in Virginia and decreased proceeds from the sale of assets.
Cash flows from financing activities decreased $1.1 billion primarily driven by repayments of long-term debt in 2023.
We have spent $282.2 million year to date on project capital investments. We expect to spend approximately $575 to $675 million for the year on project capital investments. The significant project capital investments planned for the second half of 2023 include: Churchill Downs Racetrack Paddock Project, Derby City Gaming Downtown, the Ellis Park HRM facility in Eastern Daviess County, Kentucky, the Terre Haute Casino Resort in Vigo County, Indiana, a New Hampshire HRM Facility, and the Virginia HRM entertainment venues in Dumfries and Emporia. The planned amount may vary significantly based on the timing of work completed, unanticipated delays, and timing of payments to third parties.
Common Stock Repurchase Program
On September 29, 2021, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a common stock repurchase program of up to $500.0 million ("2021 Stock Repurchase Program"). Repurchases may be made at management’s discretion from time to time on the open market (either with or without a 10b5-1 plan) or through privately negotiated transactions. The repurchase program has no time limit and may be suspended or discontinued at any time. We had $270.2 million of repurchase authority remaining under this program on June 30, 2023.

Credit Agreement
At June 30, 2023, the Company’s senior secured credit facility (as amended from time to time, the “Credit Agreement") consisted of a $1.2 billion revolving credit facility (the "Revolver"), $300.0 million senior secured term loan B-1 due 2028 (the "Term Loan B-1"), $1.3 billion senior secured term loan A due 2027 (the "Term Loan A"), and $100.0 million swing line commitment. Certain amendments to the Credit Agreement entered into during 2022 and 2023, respectively, are described below.
On April 13, 2022, we amended the Credit Agreement to extend the maturity date of its Revolver to April 13, 2027, to increase the commitments under the existing revolving credit facility from $700.0 million to $1.2 billion, and to increase the swing line commitment from $50.0 million to $100.0 million. This amendment also provided for the senior secured Term Loan A due April 13, 2027 in the amount of $800.0 million, which was drawn on November 1, 2022 as part of the financing for the P2E Transaction. Refer to Note 3, Acquisitions in the notes to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information regarding the P2E Transaction. The Company capitalized $3.2 million of debt issuance costs associated with the Revolver commitment increase and $6.4 million of debt issuance costs associated with the Term Loan A which are being amortized as interest expense over the 5-year term.
On February 24, 2023, we amended our Credit Agreement to increase the loans under the existing Term Loan A due 2027 from $800.0 million to $1.3 billion and made certain other changes to the existing credit agreement. The Company used the net proceeds from the borrowings under the increased Term Loan A to repay outstanding loans under its Revolver, pay related transaction fees and expenses and for general corporate purposes. The Company capitalized $2.6 million of debt issuance costs associated with the increased Term Loan A which are being amortized as interest expense over the remainder of the 5-year term.
The Company is required to pay a commitment fee on the unused portion of the Revolver as determined by a pricing grid based on the consolidated total net secured leverage ratio of the Company. For the period ended June 30, 2023, the Company's commitment fee rate was 0.25%.
The Revolver and Term Loan A bear interest at SOFR plus 10 basis points, plus a variable applicable margin which is determined by the Company's net leverage ratio. As of June 30, 2023, that applicable margin was 150 basis points. The Term Loan B-1 bears interest at SOFR plus 210 basis points.
The Company completed the transition of its financing from LIBOR to SOFR during the second quarter of 2023. These transition activities did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

The Company recognized a loss on extinguishment on Term Loan B of $1.3 million, which is included in miscellaneous, net in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. The Company capitalized $10.6 million of debt issuance costs associated with the 2031 Senior Notes which are being amortized as interest expense over the remainder of the 8-year term.
The 2031 Notes were issued at 100% of the principal amount, plus interest deemed to have accrued from April 25, 2023, with interest payable in arrears on May 1st and November 1st of each year, commencing on November 1, 2023. The 2031 Notes will vote as one class under the indenture governing the 2031 Senior Notes.
The Company may redeem some or all of the 2031 Notes at any time prior to April 25, 2025, at redemption prices set forth in the 2031 offering memorandum.

ITEM 3.    QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We are exposed to market risks arising from adverse changes in:
general economic trends; and
interest rate and credit risk.
General economic trends
Our business is sensitive to consumer confidence and reductions in consumers' discretionary spending, which may result from challenging economic conditions, inflation, unemployment levels and other changes in the economy. Demand for entertainment and leisure activities is sensitive to consumers’ disposable incomes, which can be adversely affected by economic conditions and unemployment levels. This could result in fewer patrons visiting our racetracks, gaming and wagering facilities, and online wagering sites and/or may impact our customers’ ability to wager with the same frequency and to maintain wagering levels.
Interest rate and credit risk
Our primary exposure to market risk relates to changes in interest rates. On June 30, 2023, we had $1.6 billion outstanding under our Credit Agreement, which bears interest at SOFR based variable rates. We are exposed to market risk on variable rate debt due to potential adverse changes in these rates. Assuming the outstanding balance of the debt facility remains constant, a one-percentage point increase in the SOFR rate would reduce net income and cash flows from operating activities by $11.3 million. The Company completed the transition of its financing from LIBOR to SOFR during the second quarter of 2023. These transition activities did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
ITEM 4.    CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports that we file under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the
FORM 10-Q FOR THE QUARTERLY PERIOD ENDED JUNE 30, 2023
41


time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
As required by the Securities and Exchange Commission Rule 13a-15(e), we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2023. Based upon the foregoing, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There has been no change in our internal controls over financial reporting during our most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. Our process for evaluating controls and procedures is continuous and encompasses constant improvement of the design and effectiveness of established controls and procedures.

PART II.    OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
The following descriptions include updates since the filing of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, relating to the proceedings involving the Company. In addition to the matters described below, we are also involved in ordinary routine litigation matters which are incidental to our business. Refer to Note 15, Contingencies, in the notes to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, for further information.
Bob Baffert and Bob Baffert Racing Stables, Inc. v. Churchill Downs Incorporated, Bill Carstanjen and Alex Rankin
On February 28, 2022, plaintiffs Bob Baffert and Bob Baffert Racing Stables, Inc. filed a complaint and motion for preliminary injunction against Churchill Downs Incorporated, its Chief Executive Officer Bill Carstanjen, and its Chairman of the Board of Directors Alex Rankin in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Kentucky, arising out of the Company’s decision to suspend Mr. Baffert from entering horses trained by him at any Company-owned racetrack for a period of two years. The Company’s two-year suspension of Mr. Baffert came after Baffert-trained horse, Medina Spirit, finished first in the 147th running of the Kentucky Derby but subsequently tested positive for betamethasone, a banned race-day substance. Plaintiffs allege that the Company’s decisions to suspend Mr. Baffert from racing at any Company-owned racetrack and to prohibit horses trained by him (or any other suspended trainer) from accumulating Derby-qualifying points were unlawful. Plaintiffs assert claims for (i) violation of the due process clause, (ii) unlawful exclusion, (iii) violations of the federal antitrust laws, (iv) tortious interference with contract, and (v) tortious interference with prospective business advantage.
In addition to and separate from the Company’s suspension of Mr. Baffert, on February 21, 2022, the Kentucky Horse Racing Commission ("KHRC") Board of Stewards suspended Mr. Baffert from racing in Kentucky for 90 days and issued a fine to him. The KHRC rejected Mr. Baffert’s requests to stay the suspension. Mr. Baffert unsuccessfully sought judicial intervention relieving him from the KHRC suspension. On March 21, 2022, the Franklin County Circuit Court concluded Mr. Baffert was not entitled to a stay of the KHRC suspension and that he had not satisfied a single element required for a temporary injunction of the KHRC suspension. This decision was affirmed by the Kentucky Court of Appeals on April 1, 2022 in an order denying Mr. Baffert’s motion for emergency relief. After the Kentucky Court of Appeals allowed the KHRC’s 90-day suspension of Mr. Baffert to stand, plaintiffs voluntarily withdrew their motion for preliminary injunction against the Company without prejudice.
On May 2, 2022, the Defendants filed a motion to dismiss plaintiffs’ complaint. Plaintiffs filed a renewed motion for preliminary injunction on December 15, 2022. On February 17, 2023, the Court issued a memorandum opinion and order granting the Company’s motion to dismiss in part, allowing a portion of the due process claim to remain. In the same order, the Court denied Plaintiffs’ motion for preliminary injunction, concluding that Plaintiff had not established irreparable injury and was not likely to succeed on the merits of the remaining claim. On March 14, 2023, the Defendants filed a motion for summary judgment on the remaining claim. The Court granted that motion on May 24, 2023, and entered final judgment in favor of Defendants. Plaintiffs did not appeal this ruling.
ITEM 1A.    RISK FACTORS
There have been no material changes to our risk factors previously disclosed in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.
