DOVER DOWNS GAMING & ENTERTAINMENT, INC. REPORTS RESULTS
FOR THE FOURTH QUARTER AND YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2017
· PAYS: $75 MILLION TO STATE AND HORSEMEN
· LOSES: $1 MILLION FOR THE YEAR
Dover Downs Gaming & Entertainment, Inc. (NYSE: DDE) today reported results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2017.
The Company’s total revenues were $44,377,000 for the fourth quarter of 2017 compared with $44,241,000 for the fourth quarter of 2016.
Gaming revenues of $37,966,000 were up 1.2% compared to the fourth quarter of last year, primarily the result of higher table game and sports betting hold percentages.
Other operating revenues were $6,411,000 compared to $6,726,000 for the fourth quarter of last year. Occupancy levels in the Dover Downs Hotel were approximately 80% and 81% for the fourth quarters of 2017 and 2016, respectively.
General and administrative expenses were down to $1,268,000 for the fourth quarter compared to $1,524,000 last year, from lower employee related costs.
Interest expense was consistent with last year as a result of lower average outstanding borrowings offset by slightly higher interest rates.
On December 22, 2017, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act was signed into law. The fourth quarter of 2017 and full-year 2017 results reflect the impact of the new tax law, which resulted in an income tax expense of $662,000, or ($.02) per diluted share, primarily from revaluing the Company’s net deferred tax assets to reflect the recently enacted 21% federal corporate tax rate.
Net loss for the fourth quarter was ($779,000), or ($.02) per diluted share, compared with net loss of ($291,000), or ($.01) per diluted share last year.
For the year as a whole, total revenues were $176,924,000 for 2017 compared with $182,292,000 for 2016.
Net loss was ($1,068,000), or ($.03) per diluted share, compared with net earnings of $786,000, or $.02 per diluted share for 2016.
Denis McGlynn, the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer, stated: “Once again the Company demonstrated substantial gaming operational profitability which once again was totally wiped out by an unfair and outdated gaming revenue sharing formula.
“Legislation has been introduced to implement a more fair and realistic formula and we hope the Delaware Legislature and Administration will act favorably on it.”

(1) The passage of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act in December 2017 lowered our future federal income tax rate to 21% requiring us to revalue net deferred federal tax assets.
The above financial information is presented using other than generally accepted accounting principles (“non-GAAP”), and is reconciled to comparable information presented using GAAP. Non-GAAP adjusted net (loss) earnings and adjusted net (loss) earnings per common share - basic and diluted are derived by adjusting amounts determined in accordance with GAAP for the aforementioned federal income tax reform. We believe such non-GAAP information is useful and meaningful to investors, and is used by investors and us to assess core operations. This non-GAAP financial information may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other entities and should not be considered as an alternative to net (loss) earnings or net (loss) earnings per common share - basic and diluted, which are determined in accordance with GAAP.
