Insights

Full House Resorts' Q4 results demonstrate a company in transition with strong top-line growth but continued profitability challenges. The 21.5% revenue increase to $73 million reflects successful expansion efforts, particularly the continued ramp-up of American Place and the phased opening of Chamonix Casino Hotel.

American Place stands out as the primary growth driver with Q4 revenues increasing 27.5% and Adjusted Property EBITDA surging 71.9% year-over-year. This property is clearly gaining traction in Illinois, with management highlighting the potential for even stronger performance once the permanent facility replaces the temporary casino in 2027.

However, the bottom-line results remain concerning. Despite revenue growth, the company posted a Q4 net loss of $12.3 million, only marginally improved from the $12.5 million loss in Q4 2023. More troubling is the full-year net loss, which widened to $40.7 million from $24.9 million, while full-year Adjusted EBITDA remained flat at $48.6 million.

Chamonix's performance is particularly concerning, generating negative Adjusted Segment EBITDA of $3.2 million in Q4. Though management points to early inefficiencies and weather impacts, the property needs to demonstrate a clear path to profitability.

The company's balance sheet carries significant leverage with $450 million in senior secured notes and $27 million drawn on its revolving credit facility. Management's mention of potentially refinancing most outstanding debt to fund the permanent American Place facility indicates upcoming capital market activity that will be critical to watch.

Full House's results highlight the typical growth pains faced during casino expansion. The ramp-up periods for new properties are showing the expected revenue trajectory, but with temporary margin compression that's standard in the industry.

The performance contrast between properties is instructive. American Place is following the classic maturation curve for a temporary facility, with excellent 71.9% Q4 EBITDA growth demonstrating operational leverage kicking in as the property establishes market presence. The comparison to Rockford's temporary-to-permanent transition (where revenues doubled) provides a reasonable framework for projecting American Place's potential.

Conversely, Chamonix represents the early-stage challenges of a resort opening. The 160% revenue growth in Colorado operations masks the inefficiencies typical during staff training, amenity staging, and market awareness building. The hiring of Brandon Lenssen as GM signals a shift from opening mode to optimization phase, bringing valuable regional expertise from Bally's Black Hawk.

The sports wagering segment's volatility is concerning, with the loss of operators in Colorado and Indiana threatening a revenue stream that delivered $9.5 million in Adjusted Segment EBITDA in 2024. This highlights the vulnerability of third-party dependent revenue models in the evolving online betting landscape.

For Chamonix, the focus on "sustainable growth and overall profitability" rather than just revenue growth indicates management recognizes the need to balance expansion with operational efficiency. The timing of their marketing push post-election cycle shows prudent resource allocation, though the delayed awareness campaign has extended the ramp-up period.

- Quarterly and Annual Revenues Increased More Than 21% Compared to the Prior-Year Periods

- American Place Casino Continued Its Expected Ramp-Up of Operations, With Revenues Rising 27.5% and 42.4% in the Fourth Quarter and Full-Year Periods, Respectively

- Chamonix Casino Hotel Completed Its Phased Opening in October 2024; Revenues for Our Colorado Operations Increased 161.1% and 159.9% in the Fourth Quarter and Full-Year Periods, Respectively

LAS VEGAS, March 06, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Full House Resorts, Inc. (Nasdaq: FLL) today announced results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2024.

On a consolidated basis, revenues in the fourth quarter of 2024 rose 21.5% to $73.0 million, reflecting the continued ramp-up of operations at American Place and Chamonix Casino Hotel. Revenues in the prior-year period were $60.0 million. Net loss for the fourth quarter of 2024 was $12.3 million, or $(0.35) per diluted common share, which includes $0.3 million of preopening and development costs, as well as increased depreciation and amortization charges related to our new American Place and Chamonix facilities. In the prior-year period, net loss was $12.5 million, or $(0.36) per diluted common share, reflecting $3.1 million of preopening and development costs, primarily related to Chamonix in advance of its full opening. Adjusted EBITDA^(a) was $10.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2024, an increase of 42.0%, reflecting strong continued growth at American Place, as well as elevated costs at Chamonix as it continues to ramp up its operations. In the prior-year period, Adjusted EBITDA was $7.3 million.

For the full year, revenues in 2024 were $292.1 million, a 21.2% increase from $241.1 million in the prior year. These results reflect the February 2023 opening of American Place and the phased opening of Chamonix throughout 2024. Net loss in 2024 was $40.7 million, or $(1.16) per diluted common share, which includes $2.8 million of preopening and development costs, primarily related to our Chamonix construction project, and significant depreciation and amortization charges related to our two newest casinos. For 2023, net loss was $24.9 million, or $(0.72) per diluted common share, reflecting $15.7 million of preopening and development costs. Adjusted EBITDA was flat at $48.6 million in 2024, reflecting construction disruption and elevated costs at our Colorado operations throughout much of the year.

Daniel R. Lee, President and Chief Executive Officer of Full House Resorts, commented, “In Illinois, plans for our permanent American Place casino continue to move forward. In 2021, an unsuccessful bidder sued the City of Waukegan and the Illinois Gaming Board, alleging unfair treatment in the license selection process. In January 2025, the Illinois Supreme Court unanimously ruled against that unsuccessful bidder, essentially confirming our selection as the Waukegan licensee.

“During the fourth quarter of 2024, revenues and Adjusted Property EBITDA at our temporary American Place facility rose 27.5% and 71.9%, respectively, versus the fourth quarter of 2023. For the full year, such increases were 42.4% and 59.8%, respectively, when compared to 2023.

“While our temporary casino is performing very well, we believe the permanent casino will perform much better. We expect to break ground later this year and complete construction by August 2027, when our authorization to operate the temporary casino expires.

“Another gaming company in Illinois operated a temporary casino for several years, in the city of Rockford. It is a market quite analogous to, but smaller than, our market in Lake County. That temporary casino recently transitioned into a permanent facility. According to the Illinois Gaming Board, the permanent Rockford casino’s gaming revenues between September 2024 and January 2025 totaled $60 million, more than double the amount generated in its temporary facility in the prior-year period.

“Meanwhile, we were pleased that American Place was recognized in the Chicago Tribune’s Top Workplaces 2024 list, the only casino to achieve such recognition.”

Continued Mr. Lee, “Chamonix – with its blend of luxurious gaming and non-gaming amenities – continues to impress visitors to Cripple Creek and remains poised for long-term success. Our total revenues in Colorado rose 160% in 2024 versus 2023 – and market share approximately doubled – despite the lack of a broad awareness campaign throughout much of 2024. Meaningful marketing efforts for Chamonix did not start until November 2024, after completion of the property’s phased opening and upon the conclusion of the national election campaign cycle, when advertising rates were inordinately high. As we enter the upcoming spring and summer seasons, we expect our awareness campaign to take hold and to see even more growth at Chamonix. Equally important, Chamonix’s increase in revenues primarily reflects growth in the market, proving that our feeder market is indeed underserved.

“In the near-term, we have refocused our efforts in Colorado on profitability and sustainable growth. To support these efforts, we recently hired Brandon Lenssen as Chamonix’s new general manager. Brandon brings extensive knowledge of the Colorado gaming market to our company, having worked as general manager of Bally’s Black Hawk for approximately five years and, prior to that, in several senior gaming positions at Isle of Capri Black Hawk.

“We are also in the process of improving our database marketing at Chamonix. We recently hired a new Vice President of Advertising, who is focused on improving the effectiveness and efficiency of our digital, traditional media, and direct marketing efforts at Chamonix, as well as all of our other properties. Over time – as Chamonix’s awareness campaign broadens and word of mouth spreads – Colorado Springs and Denver will continue to expand as our primary feeder markets.”

Fourth Quarter Highlights

Midwest & South. This segment includes Silver Slipper Casino and Hotel, Rising Star Casino Resort, and American Place. Revenues for the segment were $55.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2024, a 12.1% increase from $49.1 million in the prior-year period. Adjusted Segment EBITDA was $10.5 million, a 46.3% increase from $7.2 million in the prior-year period. These results reflect continuing growth at American Place, which opened in February 2023. In the fourth quarter of 2024, American Place generated $28.5 million of revenue and $6.7 million of Adjusted Property EBITDA, increases of 27.5% and 71.9%, respectively, compared to the fourth quarter of 2023.

For the full year, this segment similarly benefited from the opening of American Place in February 2023. Revenues increased 14.2% from $192.4 million to $219.6 million, and Adjusted Segment EBITDA grew 17.2% from $39.0 million to $45.7 million. Of such amount, American Place contributed $109.7 million and $29.4 million to the segment’s revenues and Adjusted Segment EBITDA, respectively, in 2024.
West. This segment includes Grand Lodge Casino (located within the Hyatt Regency Lake Tahoe resort in Incline Village), Stockman’s Casino, Bronco Billy’s Casino, and Chamonix Casino Hotel, which opened in phases between December 2023 and October 2024. Bronco Billy’s and Chamonix are two integrated and adjoining casinos, operating as a single entity. Revenues for the segment rose 87.2% to $16.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2024, reflecting the opening of Chamonix, versus $8.6 million in the prior-year period. Adjusted Segment EBITDA was $(3.2) million in the fourth quarter of 2024, reflecting early inefficiencies related to Chamonix’s new operations and the adverse impacts of snowy weather. Opening costs include the training of new employees, as well as the cost of operating many amenities at the new resort while continuing to complete construction. As noted above, Chamonix completed its phased opening in October 2024. In the prior-year’s fourth quarter, Adjusted Segment EBITDA was $(0.1) million.

While revenues have grown meaningfully since Chamonix’s opening, our team is now focused on sustainable growth and overall profitability. To support those efforts, we recently hired Brandon Lenssen, our new general manager at Chamonix. Brandon has extensive gaming experience in Colorado, having served as Vice President and General Manager of Bally’s Black Hawk for approximately five years.

For the year, revenues rose 77.4% to $63.6 million in 2024, reflecting the phased opening of Chamonix throughout the year, from $35.9 million in 2023. Adjusted Segment EBITDA was $(1.3) million in 2024, reflecting construction disruptions and elevated costs, as noted above. In 2023, such amounts were $35.9 million and $2.4 million, respectively.

On August 28, 2024, we entered into an agreement to sell the operating assets of Stockman’s for aggregate cash consideration of $9.2 million, plus certain expected working capital adjustments at closing. The asset sale was designed to be completed in two phases: the sale of Stockman’s real property for $7.0 million, which closed on September 27, 2024 at a $2.0 million gain; and the sale of certain remaining operating assets for $2.2 million (excluding any adjustments for working capital), upon the receipt of customary gaming approvals. Such receipt is expected to occur in the coming weeks, after which we will close on the second part of the transaction.
Contracted Sports Wagering. This segment consists of our on-site and online sports wagering “skins” (akin to websites) in Colorado, Indiana, and Illinois. Revenues for the segment were $1.9 million and $2.3 million, respectively, in the fourth quarters of 2024 and 2023, reflecting fewer active skins during the 2024 period. Adjusted Segment EBITDA in the fourth quarter of 2024 was $3.0 million, reflecting a $1.2 million recovery settlement related to the conclusion of operations for one of the Company’s sports skins in Colorado. In the prior-year’s fourth quarter, Adjusted Segment EBITDA was $1.3 million.

For the year, this segment’s revenues were $8.8 million in 2024 and $12.8 million in 2023, and Adjusted Segment EBITDA was $9.5 million and $11.7 million, respectively. Results in 2023 benefited from $5.8 million of accelerated revenues related to the early termination of certain sports wagering agreements with third-party operators that ceased operations. The segment had similar early terminations in 2024, with such accelerated revenues totaling $0.9 million.

In January 2025, we received notices that a contracted sports betting operator was discontinuing its operations in Colorado and Indiana, to be effective prior to the June 2025 and December 2025 anniversaries in its agreements with us. There is no certainty that we will be able to enter into agreements with other third-party operators on similar terms, or at all.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of December 31, 2024, we had $40.2 million in cash and cash equivalents, none of which was restricted. Our debt consisted primarily of $450.0 million in outstanding senior secured notes due 2028, which is currently callable at 102.063% of par, and $27.0 million outstanding under our revolving credit facility. In March 2025, the Company extended the maturity date of its revolving credit facility from March 31, 2026 to January 1, 2027. Management is currently evaluating the most efficient means to finance the permanent American Place facility, which may include refinancing most of the Company’s currently outstanding debt.

(a) Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Our presentation of non-GAAP Measures may be different from the presentation used by other companies, and therefore, comparability may be limited. While excluded from certain non-GAAP Measures, depreciation and amortization expense, interest expense, income taxes and other items have been and will be incurred. Each of these items should also be considered in the overall evaluation of our results. Additionally, our non-GAAP Measures 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, 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.

Our non-GAAP Measures are to be used in addition to, and in conjunction with, results presented in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP 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. These non-GAAP 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.

Adjusted Segment EBITDA. We utilize Adjusted Segment EBITDA as the measure of segment profitability in assessing performance and allocating resources at the reportable segment level. Adjusted Segment EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest and other non-operating income (expense), taxes, depreciation and amortization, preopening expenses, impairment charges, asset write-offs, recoveries, gain (loss) from asset sales and disposals, project development and acquisition costs, non-cash share-based compensation expense, and corporate-related costs and expenses that are not allocated to each segment.

Same-store Adjusted Segment EBITDA. Same-store Adjusted Segment EBITDA is Adjusted Segment EBITDA further adjusted to exclude the Adjusted Property EBITDA of properties that have not been in operation for a full year. Adjusted Property EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest and other non-operating income (expense), taxes, depreciation and amortization, preopening expenses, impairment charges, asset write-offs, recoveries, gain (loss) from asset sales and disposals, project development and acquisition costs, non-cash share-based compensation expense, and corporate-related costs and expenses that are not allocated to each property.

Adjusted EBITDA. We also utilize Adjusted EBITDA, which is defined as Adjusted Segment EBITDA, net of corporate-related costs and expenses. Although Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of performance or liquidity calculated in accordance with GAAP, we believe this non-GAAP financial measure provides meaningful supplemental information regarding our performance and liquidity. We utilize this metric or measure internally to focus management on year-over-year changes in core operating performance, which we consider our ordinary, ongoing and customary operations, and which we believe is useful information to investors. Accordingly, management excludes certain items when analyzing core operating performance, such as the items mentioned above, that management believes are not reflective of ordinary, ongoing and customary operations.
