BOYD GAMING REPORTS THIRD-QUARTER 2014 RESULTS

Third-Quarter Highlights
Total Adjusted EBITDA Grows 5.5%
All Business Segments Show EBITDA Margin Improvement
$70 Million in Debt Reduction During Third Quarter

LAS VEGAS - OCTOBER 30, 2014 - Boyd Gaming Corporation (NYSE: BYD) today reported financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2014.

Boyd Gaming reported third-quarter 2014 net revenues of $738.8 million, up slightly from $738.6 million during the same quarter in 2013. Total Adjusted EBITDA(1) rose 5.5% to $163.9 million, compared to $155.3 million in the year-ago quarter.

Keith Smith, President and Chief Executive Officer of Boyd Gaming, said: “This was a solid quarter for our operations, as we improved operating margins in every segment of our business. Growth resumed in our Nevada business, as our Las Vegas Locals and Downtown Las Vegas operations both achieved positive EBITDA comparisons. We saw initial signs of stabilization in our regional business as well. We paid down an additional $70 million in debt in the quarter, bringing our total debt reduction to more than $165 million so far this year, as we continue to use free cash flow to deleverage the balance sheet. And we began work on several projects in our long-term initiative to reposition and enhance select non-gaming amenities in our portfolio. In all, we continue to make good progress executing on our strategy to drive profitable growth and increase long-term shareholder value.”

Adjusted Earnings(1) for the third quarter 2014 were $0.3 million, breakeven on a per-share basis, compared to a loss of $8.3 million, or $0.08 per share, for the same period in 2013. The calculations of Adjusted Earnings and Adjusted Earnings per share are presented in a table at the end of this press release.

On a GAAP basis, the Company reported a net loss of $15.1 million, or $0.14 per share, for the third quarter 2014, compared to a net loss of $37.3 million, or $0.37 per share, for the year-ago period.

The Company’s GAAP results include a third-quarter pretax impairment charge of $12.1 million to adjust the value of the Company’s equity ownership interest in Borgata as a result of its deconsolidation. In addition, the Company’s third-quarter results include a pretax impairment charge of $6.2 million to write down certain non-operating assets to their estimated recoverable value. The prior-year third quarter included an aggregate pretax loss on early extinguishments of debt of $27.1 million due to debt refinancing activities that were completed during that period.

Operations Review

Las Vegas Locals
In the Las Vegas Locals region, third-quarter 2014 net revenues were $141.2 million, an increase of nearly 1% from $140.3 million in the year-ago quarter. Third-quarter 2014 Adjusted EBITDA rose 6.5% to $28.1 million, versus $26.4 million in the third quarter of 2013, marking the sixth positive quarterly EBITDA comparison in the last seven quarters. Growth in non-gaming business drove increases in both revenue and EBITDA during the quarter. Results also benefitted from continued efficiencies in operations, as EBITDA margins improved more than 100 basis points year-over-year.

Downtown    
Downtown Las Vegas net revenues were $53.4 million in the third quarter of 2014, up 1.3% from $52.7 million in the year-ago quarter. Adjusted EBITDA increased 14.1% to $6.3 million in the current period, compared to $5.5 million in the third quarter of 2013. Strong pedestrian traffic in the Fremont Street area and growth in visitation from Hawaii contributed to revenue and EBITDA gains, while operating margins improved more than 130 basis points.




2



Midwest and South; Peninsula
In the Midwest and South segment, net revenues were $210.7 million, compared to $214.8 million in the third quarter of 2013. Adjusted EBITDA grew 4.0% to $43.6 million versus $41.9 million in the year-ago period.

During the third quarter of 2014, the Peninsula segment reported net revenues of $123.6 million and Adjusted EBITDA of $42.9 million. This compares to net revenues of $130.7 million and Adjusted EBITDA of $45.3 million in the third quarter of 2013.

While revenues were affected by continued softness in casual play, operational efficiencies drove margin improvements across both segments. Results reflect strong EBITDA performances at Delta Downs, IP and Blue Chip. These EBITDA gains were offset by weakness at Par-A-Dice, due to significantly heightened competition in Illinois, as well as Kansas Star, which was impacted by lower visitation levels.

Borgata
Borgata, the Company’s 50% joint venture, reported third-quarter 2014 net revenues of $209.9 million, including $6.1 million from its online gaming operations. This represented a 4.9% increase from the $200.1 million in revenues reported in the year-ago period. Adjusted EBITDA, was $56.9 million in the third quarter of 2014, up 22.1% from $46.6 million in the year-ago period.

Benefits from a property tax settlement reached with the City of Atlantic City earlier this year contributed $8.1 million to EBITDA during the quarter. Excluding property tax-related gains, EBITDA increased 4.7% year-over-year, as slot and hotel revenue grew, and the property expanded its overall gaming market share by 260 basis points. Additionally, the property’s online gaming operations achieved profitability throughout the third quarter.










3



Deconsolidation of Borgata
The Company’s Atlantic City partner reacquired its 50% ownership interest in Borgata on September 30, 2014. As a result, the Company has deconsolidated Borgata as of that date, and adjusted its equity investment in Borgata by $12.1 million to equal fair value. The deconsolidation of Borgata does not have an economic impact, but does affect the accounting presentation in the Company’s financial statements. The Company will account for its 50% investment in Borgata by applying the equity method for periods subsequent to the date of deconsolidation. A Form 8-K furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission today contains unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information reflecting the effect of the deconsolidation for each of the quarters and full year of 2013, and each of the quarters and year-to-date period in 2014.

Balance Sheet Statistics
As of September 30, 2014, Boyd Gaming had cash on hand of $120.9 million, including $25.4 million related to Peninsula. Total debt was $3.48 billion, of which $1.11 billion was related to Peninsula.

As of September 30, 2014, Borgata is no longer included in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. On that date, Borgata had cash on hand of $26.9 million and debt of $776.6 million.

Full-Year Guidance
Based on third-quarter results and current business trends, Boyd Gaming is narrowing its full-year 2014 Adjusted EBITDA guidance to the high end of its previously provided guidance. Before consideration of the deconsolidation of Borgata, the Company expects to generate between $590 million and $600 million in Adjusted EBITDA for the year. As a result of the deconsolidation of Borgata, the Company is modifying its guidance to eliminate 50% of Borgata’s Adjusted EBITDA from the fourth quarter. Reflecting this change in accounting, full-year 2014 guidance for Boyd Gaming’s Adjusted EBITDA is $576 million to $586 million.

Boyd Gaming's contractual agreements with LVE were terminated on March 4, 2013, in connection with the sale of the Echelon development site. As a result, Boyd Gaming ceased consolidation of LVE as of that date. The financial results presented for LVE include only that portion of the period that the variable interest entity was consolidated by Boyd Gaming.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Regulation G, "Conditions for Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures," prescribes the conditions for use of non-GAAP financial information in public disclosures. We believe that our presentations of the following non-GAAP financial measures are important supplemental measures of operating performance to investors: earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA), Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Earnings and Adjusted Earnings Per Share (Adjusted EPS). The following discussion defines these terms and why we believe they are useful measures of our performance. We do not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to the corresponding forward-looking GAAP measure due to our inability to project special charges and certain expenses.


EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA

EBITDA is a commonly used measure of performance in our industry that we believe, when considered with measures calculated in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”), provides our investors a more complete understanding of our operating results before the impact of investing and financing transactions and income taxes and facilitates comparisons between us and our competitors. Management has historically adjusted EBITDA when evaluating operating performance because we believe that the inclusion or exclusion of certain recurring and non-recurring items is necessary to provide the most accurate measure of our core operating results and as a means to evaluate period-to-period results. We refer to this measure as Adjusted EBITDA. We have chosen to provide this information to investors to enable them to perform more meaningful comparisons of past, present and future operating results and as a means to evaluate the results of core on-going operations. We have historically reported this measure to our investors and believe that the continued inclusion of Adjusted EBITDA provides consistency in our financial reporting. We use Adjusted EBITDA in this press release because we believe it is useful to investors in allowing greater transparency related to a significant measure used by our management in their financial and operational decision-making. Adjusted EBITDA is among the more significant factors in management's internal evaluation of total company and individual property performance and in the evaluation of incentive compensation related to property management. Management also uses Adjusted EBITDA as a measure in the evaluation of potential acquisitions and dispositions. Adjusted EBITDA is also used by management in the annual budget process. Externally, we believe these measures continue to be used by investors in their assessment of our operating performance and the valuation of our company. Adjusted EBITDA reflects EBITDA adjusted for deferred rent, preopening expenses, share-based compensation expense, impairments of assets, asset transactions costs, loss on early extinguishments of debt and other operating charges, net, and Borgata's non-operating expenses, preopening expenses and other items and write-downs, net. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA includes corporate expense.

Adjusted Earnings and Adjusted EPS

Adjusted Earnings is net income (loss) before preopening expenses, asset transactions costs, impairments of assets, write-downs and other charges, net, gain or loss on early retirements of debt, other non-recurring adjustments, net, valuation adjustments related to the consolidation of Borgata, and Borgata's preopening expenses and other items and write-downs, net. Adjusted Earnings and Adjusted EPS are presented solely as supplemental disclosures because management believes that they are widely used measures of performance in the gaming industry.

Limitations on the Use of Non-GAAP Measures

The use of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Earnings, Adjusted EPS and certain other non-GAAP financial measures has certain limitations. Our presentation of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Earnings, Adjusted EPS or certain other non-GAAP financial measures may be different from the presentation used by other companies and therefore comparability may be limited. Depreciation and amortization expense, interest expense, income taxes and other items have been and will be incurred and are not reflected in the presentation of EBITDA or Adjusted EBITDA. Each of these items should also be considered in the overall evaluation of our results. Additionally, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not consider capital expenditures and other investing activities and should not be considered as a measure of our liquidity. We compensate for these limitations by providing the relevant disclosure of our depreciation and amortization, interest and income taxes, capital expenditures and other items both in our reconciliations to the historical GAAP financial measures and in our consolidated financial statements, all of which should be considered when evaluating our performance.

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Earnings, Adjusted EPS and certain other non-GAAP financial measures are used in addition to and in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Earnings, Adjusted EPS and certain other non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as an alternative to net income, operating income, or any other operating performance measure prescribed by GAAP, nor should these measures be relied upon to the exclusion of GAAP financial measures. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Earnings, Adjusted EPS and certain other non-GAAP financial measures reflect additional ways of viewing our operations that we believe, when viewed with our GAAP results and the reconciliations to the corresponding historical GAAP financial measures, provide a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business than could be obtained absent this disclosure. Management strongly encourages investors to review our financial information in its entirety and not to rely on a single financial measure.
