Insights

Gaming & Leisure Equity Analyst

Mixed quarter: flat revenue, lower operating income, strong cash flow.

CZR delivered Q3 revenue of $2,869M, with strength in Regional and Digital offset by a softer Las Vegas showing and lower hotel revenue. Operating income of $513M declined versus last year, while interest expense remained elevated at $576M, sustaining a quarterly net loss.

Balance sheet actions continued: the company redeemed $546M of 2027 notes and ended with long-term debt book value of $11,681M. Liquidity appears ample with $1.9B available on the CEI revolver as of Sep 30, 2025.

Nine-month operating cash flow of $998M indicates solid cash generation. Future performance will hinge on Las Vegas trends, cost discipline, and the contribution from Caesars Digital. Subsequent filings may detail further capital allocation and debt maturity management.

This Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 (the “2024 Annual Report”). Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Form 10-Q have the same meanings as in the 2024 Annual Report.

Note 1. Organization and Description of Business

Organization

The Company is a geographically diversified gaming and hospitality company that was founded in 1973 by the Carano family with the opening of the Eldorado Hotel Casino in Reno, Nevada. Beginning in 2005, the Company grew through a series of acquisitions, including the acquisition of MTR Gaming Group, Inc. in 2014, Isle of Capri Casinos, Inc. in 2017, Tropicana Entertainment, Inc. in 2018, Caesars Entertainment Corporation in 2020 and William Hill PLC in 2021. The Company’s ticker symbol on the NASDAQ Stock Market is “CZR.”

Description of Business

The Company owns, leases, brands or manages an aggregate of 52 domestic properties in 18 states with approximately 51,600 slot machines, video lottery terminals and e-tables, approximately 2,800 table games and approximately 45,600 hotel rooms as of September 30, 2025. In addition, the Company has other properties in North America that are authorized to use the brands and marks of Caesars Entertainment, Inc., as well as other non-gaming properties. The Company’s primary source of revenue is generated by its gaming operations, which includes its casino properties, retail and online sports betting, and online gaming. Additionally, the Company utilizes its hotels, restaurants, bars, entertainment, racing, retail shops and other services to attract customers to its properties.

The Company’s operations for retail and online sports betting, iGaming, horse racing and online poker are included under the Caesars Digital segment. The Company operates retail and online sports wagering in 33 jurisdictions in North America, 26 of which offer online sports betting, and operates iGaming in five jurisdictions in North America as of September 30, 2025. The Company operates the Caesars Sportsbook app, the Caesars Racebook app, the Caesars Palace Online Casino app and the Horseshoe Online Casino app which initially launched in October 2024. The Company also expects to continue to grow its operations in the Caesars Digital segment as new jurisdictions legalize retail and online sports betting and iGaming.

Divestiture

The Company periodically divests assets that it may not consider core to its business to raise capital or, in some cases, to comply with conditions, terms, obligations or restrictions imposed by antitrust, gaming and other regulatory entities.

On December 12, 2024, the Company closed the sale of the LINQ Promenade to a joint venture between TPG Real Estate and the Investment Management Platform of Acadia Realty Trust for $275 million. The LINQ Promenade was reported within the Las Vegas segment. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, the operations of the LINQ Promenade resulted in $7 million and $19 million of net revenues, respectively, and $5 million and $13 million of net income, respectively.

On October 29, 2024, the Company closed the sale of the World Series of Poker (“WSOP”) trademark to NSUS Group Inc. for total consideration of $500 million, which included a $250 million note receivable. In July 2025, the Company applied the proceeds received from the partial repayment and sale of $225 million of notes receivable to the redemption of outstanding debt. See Note 6.

Note 2. Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited Financial Statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information with the instructions for Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited Financial Statements contain all adjustments, all of which are normal and recurring, considered necessary for a fair presentation. The results of operations for these interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for other quarters, for the full year or any future period.

The presentation of financial information herein for the periods after the divestiture of the LINQ Promenade is not fully comparable to the periods prior to such divestiture. See Note 1.

Our Financial Statements include the accounts of Caesars Entertainment, Inc. and its subsidiaries after elimination of all intercompany accounts and transactions.

Consolidation of Subsidiaries and Variable Interest Entities

We consolidate all subsidiaries in which we have a controlling financial interest and variable interest entities (“VIEs”) for which we or one of our consolidated subsidiaries is the primary beneficiary. Control generally equates to ownership percentage, whereby (i) affiliates that are more than 50% owned are consolidated; (ii) investments in affiliates of 50% or less but greater than 20% are generally accounted for using the equity method where we have determined that we have significant influence over the entities; and (iii) investments in affiliates of 20% or less are generally accounted for as investments in equity securities.

We consider ourselves the primary beneficiary of a VIE when we have both the power to direct the activities that most significantly affect the results of the VIE and the right to receive benefits or the obligation to absorb losses of the entity that could be potentially significant to the VIE. We review investments, if a reconsideration event occurs, to determine if the investment qualifies, or continues to qualify, as a VIE. If we determine an investment qualifies, or no longer qualifies, as a VIE, there may be a material effect to our Financial Statements.

Fair Value Measurements

The Company measures certain of its financial assets and liabilities at fair value, on a recurring basis, which is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. Levels of the hierarchy prioritize the inputs used to measure fair value and include:

•Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets.

•Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable.

•Level 3: Unobservable inputs that reflect the Company’s own assumptions, as there is little, if any, related market activity.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash equivalents include investments in money market funds that can be redeemed immediately at the current net asset value per share. A money market fund is a mutual fund whose investments are primarily in short-term debt securities designed to maximize current income with liquidity and capital preservation, usually maintaining per share net asset value at a constant amount, such as one dollar. The carrying amounts approximate the fair value because of the short maturity of those instruments (Level 1). Cash and cash equivalents also include cash maintained for gaming operations.

Restricted Cash

Restricted cash includes cash or cash equivalents held in certificates of deposit accounts or money market type funds, that are not subject to remeasurement on a recurring basis, which are restricted under certain operating agreements or restricted for future capital expenditures in the normal course of business.

Marketable Securities 

Marketable securities consist primarily of trading securities held by the Company’s deferred compensation plans. The estimated fair values of the Company’s marketable securities are determined on an individual asset basis based upon quoted prices of identical assets available in active markets (Level 1) and represent the amounts the Company would expect to receive if the Company sold these marketable securities. As of both September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company held $2 million in Level 1 securities.

Derivative Instruments

The Company may enter into derivative instruments to hedge the risk of fluctuations in interest rates, foreign exchange rates or pricing for other commodities. These agreements are designated as cash flow hedges. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company did not hold any cash flow hedges or any derivative financial instruments for trading purposes.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Advertising

Advertising costs are expensed in the period the advertising first occurs. Advertising costs for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 were $62 million and $52 million, respectively, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 totaled $171 million and $164 million, respectively, and are included within operating expenses. Advertising costs related to the Caesars Digital segment are primarily recorded in Casino expense.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Pronouncements to Be Implemented in Future Periods

In September 2025, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB’) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU’) 2025-06, “Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Internal-Use Software: Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software.” Currently, entities are required to capitalize development costs incurred for internal-use software depending on the nature of the costs and project stage. The amendments in this update improve the operability of the guidance by removing all references to software development project stages so that guidance is neutral to different software development methods. Amendments in this update are effective for all entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2027. An entity may apply the new guidance prospectively, a modified transition approach based on status of project, or retrospectively. We do not expect the amendments in this update to have a material impact on our Financial Statements.

In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-05, “Financial Instruments-Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets.” Amendments in this update provide all entities with a practical expedient in developing reasonable and supportable forecasts when estimating expected credit losses, allowing entities to assume that current conditions as of the balance sheet date do not change for the remaining life of the asset. Amendments in the update should be applied prospectively and will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2025. We do not expect the amendments in this update to have a material impact on our Financial Statements.

In November 2024 (as clarified in January 2025 by ASU 2025-01), FASB issued ASU 2024-03, “Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income-Expense Disaggregation Disclosures,” which requires additional disclosure about specific expense categories in the notes to financial statements. This information is generally not presented in the financial statements today. This update applies to all public business entities and will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. We do not expect the amendments in this update to have a material impact on our Financial Statements.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, “Income Taxes: Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures,” which requires disaggregated information about an entity’s effective tax rate reconciliation as well as information on income taxes paid. These updates apply to all entities subject to income taxes and will be effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. Updates are to be applied on a prospective basis with the option to apply the standard retrospectively. We do not expect the amendments in this update to have a material impact on our Financial Statements.

Note 4. Goodwill and Intangible Assets, net

The Company evaluates for impairment annually on October 1 of each year, or whenever events or circumstances make it more likely than not that an impairment may have occurred. When such events or circumstances are noted, the Company then compares estimated future cash flows, discounted, to the carrying value of the asset. If the discounted cash flows exceed the carrying value, no impairment is recorded. Impairment charges are presented on the Statements of Operations.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company did not recognize any impairment charges. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company recognized impairment charges in our Regional segment related to trademarks, gaming rights and goodwill totaling $118 million.

Note 5. Litigation, Commitments and Contingencies

Litigation

General

We are party to various legal proceedings, which have arisen in the normal course of our business. Such proceedings can be costly, time consuming, unpredictable and, therefore, no assurance can be given that the final outcome of such proceedings will not materially impact our consolidated financial condition or results of operations. Estimated losses are accrued for these proceedings when the loss is probable and can be estimated. While we maintain insurance coverage that we believe is adequate to mitigate certain risks of such proceedings, no assurance can be given that the amount or scope of existing insurance coverage will be sufficient to cover losses arising from such matters. The current liability for the estimated losses associated with these proceedings is not material to our consolidated financial condition and changes in such estimates are not expected to have a material impact on our results of operations.

Contractual Commitments

Sports Sponsorship/Partnership Obligations

The Company has agreements with certain professional sports leagues and teams, sporting event facilities and media companies for tickets, suites, advertising, marketing, promotional and sponsorship opportunities including communication with partner customer databases. Some of the agreements provide Caesars with exclusivity to access the aforementioned rights within the casino and/or sports betting category. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, obligations related to these agreements were $342 million and $421 million, respectively, with contracts extending through 2040. These obligations are composed of various third-party agreements which have been entered into by the Company for certain of our Las Vegas and Regional properties, or our Caesars Digital segment. The agreements include leasing of event suites that are generally considered short-term leases for which the Company does not record a right of use asset or lease liability. The Company recognizes expenses in the period services are received in accordance with the various agreements. In addition, assets or liabilities may be recorded related to the timing of payments as required by the respective agreement.

Current Portion of Long-Term Debt

The current portion of long-term debt as of September 30, 2025 includes the principal payments on the term loans, special improvement district bonds, and other unsecured borrowings that are contractually due within 12 months. The Company may, from time to time, seek to repurchase or prepay its outstanding indebtedness. Any such purchases or repayments may be funded by existing cash balances or the incurrence of debt.

Debt Discounts or Premiums and Deferred Finance Charges

Debt discounts or premiums and deferred finance charges incurred in connection with the issuance of debt are amortized to interest expense based on the related debt agreements primarily using the effective interest method. Unamortized discounts are written off and included in our gain or loss calculations to the extent we extinguish debt prior to the original maturity or scheduled payment dates.

Net amortization of the debt issuance costs and the discount and/or premium associated with the Company’s indebtedness totaled $7 million and $8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and $20 million and $23 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and is included in Interest expense, net in the Statements of Operations.

Fair Value

The fair value of debt has been calculated primarily based on the borrowing rates available as of September 30, 2025 and based on market quotes of our publicly traded debt. We classify the fair value of debt within Level 1 and Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

CEI is party to a credit agreement, dated as of July 20, 2020, with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, U.S. Bank National Association, as collateral agent, and certain banks and other financial institutions and lenders party thereto (the “CEI Credit Agreement”), which, as amended, provides for the CEI Revolving Credit Facility in an aggregate principal amount of $2.25 billion (the “CEI Revolving Credit Facility”) and will mature on January 31, 2028. The CEI Revolving Credit Facility includes a letter of credit sub-facility of $388 million and contains reserves of $40 million which are available only for certain permitted uses.

On October 5, 2022, Caesars entered into an amendment to the CEI Credit Agreement pursuant to which the Company incurred a senior secured term loan in an aggregate principal amount of $750 million (the “CEI Term Loan A”) as a new term loan under the credit agreement and made certain other amendments to the CEI Credit Agreement. The CEI Term Loan A will mature on January 31, 2028. The CEI Term Loan A requires scheduled quarterly payments in amounts equal to 1.25% of the original aggregate principal amount of the CEI Term Loan A, with the balance payable at maturity.

Borrowings under the CEI Revolving Credit Facility and the CEI Term Loan A bear interest, paid at least quarterly, at a rate equal to, at the Company’s option, either (a) a forward-looking term rate based on the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“Term SOFR”) for the applicable interest period plus an adjustment of 0.10% per annum (the “Term SOFR Adjustment” and Term SOFR as so adjusted, “Adjusted Term SOFR”), subject to a floor of 0% or (b) a base rate (the “Base Rate”) determined by reference to the highest of (i) the rate of interest per annum last quoted by The Wall Street Journal as the “Prime Rate” in the United States, (ii) the federal funds rate plus 0.50% per annum and (iii) the one-month Term SOFR plus 1.00% per annum, plus, in the case of the CEI Revolving Credit Facility and the CEI Term Loan A only, the Term SOFR Adjustment, in each case, plus an applicable margin. Such applicable margin is 2.25% per annum in the case of any Adjusted Term SOFR loan and 1.25% per annum in the case of any Base Rate loan, subject to three 0.25% step-downs based on the Company’s net total leverage ratio. In addition, on a quarterly basis, the Company is required to pay each lender under the CEI Revolving Credit Facility a commitment fee in respect of any unused commitments under the CEI Revolving Credit Facility in the amount of 0.35% per annum of the principal amount of the unused commitments of such lender, subject to three 0.05% step-downs based on the Company’s net total leverage ratio.

On February 6, 2023, the Company entered into an Incremental Assumption Agreement No. 2 pursuant to which the Company incurred a new senior secured incremental term loan in an aggregate principal amount of $2.5 billion (the “CEI Term Loan B”) under the CEI Credit Agreement. The CEI Term Loan B requires scheduled quarterly principal payments in amounts equal to 0.25% of the original aggregate principal amount of the CEI Term Loan B, with the balance payable at maturity. Borrowings under the CEI Term Loan B, as amended, bear interest, paid at least quarterly, at a rate equal to, at the Company’s option, either (a) Term SOFR, subject to a floor of 0.50% or (b) the Base Rate, in each case, plus an applicable margin. Such applicable margin is 2.25% per annum in the case of any Term SOFR loan and 1.25% per annum in the case of any Base Rate loan. The CEI Term Loan B will mature on February 6, 2030.

Borrowings under the CEI Term Loan B-1, as amended in November 2024, bear interest, paid at least quarterly, at a rate equal to, at the Company’s option, either (a) Term SOFR, subject to a floor of 0.50% or (b) the Base Rate, in each case, plus an applicable margin.

Contract and Contract Related Liabilities

The Company records contract or contract related liabilities related to differences between the timing of cash receipts from the customer and the recognition of revenue. The Company generally has three types of liabilities related to contracts with customers: (1) outstanding chip liability, which represents the amounts owed in exchange for gaming chips held by customers, (2) Caesars Rewards player loyalty program obligations, which represent the deferred allocation of revenue relating to reward credits granted to Caesars Rewards members based on certain types of customer spend, including online and retail gaming, hotel, dining, retail shopping, and player loyalty program incentives earned, and (3) customer deposits and other deferred revenue, which primarily represents funds deposited by customers related to gaming play and advance payments received for goods and services yet to be provided (such as advance ticket sales, deposits on rooms and convention space, unpaid wagers, iGaming deposits, or future sports bets). These liabilities are generally expected to be recognized as revenue within one year of being purchased, earned, or deposited and are recorded within Accrued other liabilities on the Company’s Balance Sheets.

The following table summarizes the activity related to contract and contract related liabilities:

			Outstanding Chip Liability												Caesars Rewards												Customer Deposits and Other Deferred Revenue

Customer deposits and other deferred revenue decreased in 2024 primarily due to a reduction in both advanced ticket sales and gaming deposits.

Lease Revenue

Lodging Arrangements

Lodging arrangements are considered short-term and generally consist of lease and nonlease components. The lease component is the predominant component of the arrangement and consists of the fees charged for lodging. The nonlease components primarily consist of resort fees and other miscellaneous items. As the timing and pattern of transfer of both the lease and nonlease components are over the course of the lease term, we have elected to combine the revenue generated from lease and nonlease components into a single lease component based on the predominant component in the arrangement. During the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, we recognized lease revenue of approximately $485 million and $515 million, respectively, and during both nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, we recognized approximately $1.5 billion, which is included in Hotel revenues in the Statements of Operations.

Conventions

Convention arrangements are considered short-term and generally consist of lease and nonlease components. The lease component is the predominant component of the arrangement and consists of fees charged for the use of meeting space. The nonlease components primarily consist of food and beverage and audio/visual services. Revenue from conventions is included in Food and beverage revenue in the Statements of Operations and during the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, lease revenue related to conventions was approximately $12 million and $14 million, respectively, and during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, lease revenue related to conventions was approximately $41 million and $39 million, respectively.

Real Estate Operating Leases

Real estate lease revenue is included in Other revenue in the Statements of Operations. During the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, we recognized approximately $32 million and $38 million, respectively, and during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, we recognized approximately $93 million and $110 million, respectively, of real estate lease revenue.

Real estate lease revenue includes $15 million and $17 million of variable rental income for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and $44 million and $45 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Note 8. Earnings per Share

The following table illustrates the reconciliation of the numerators and denominators of the basic and diluted net income (loss) per share computations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024:

			Three Months Ended September 30,												Nine Months Ended September 30,
(In millions, except per share data)			2025						2024						2025						2024
Net loss attributable to Caesars			$	(55)					$	(9)					$	(252)					$	(289)
Shares outstanding:
Weighted average shares outstanding – basic			207						215						209						216
Weighted average shares outstanding – diluted			207						215						209						216
Net loss per common share attributable to common stockholders – basic:			$	(0.27)					$	(0.04)					$	(1.20)					$	(1.34)
Net loss per common share attributable to common stockholders – diluted:			$	(0.27)					$	(0.04)					$	(1.20)					$	(1.34)

For a period in which the Company generated a net loss attributable to Caesars, the weighted average shares outstanding - basic was used in calculating diluted loss per share because using diluted shares would have been anti-dilutive to loss per share.

Note 9. Stock-Based Compensation and Stockholders’ Equity

Stock-Based Awards

The Company maintains a long-term incentive plan, adopted by the Board of Directors (“Board”) and approved by the Company’s stockholders, which allows for granting stock-based compensation awards to directors, employees, officers, and consultants or advisers who render services to the Company or its subsidiaries, based on Company Common Stock, including stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units (“RSUs”), performance stock units (“PSUs”), market-based performance stock units (“MSUs”), stock appreciation rights, and other stock-based awards or dividend equivalents. Forfeitures are recognized in the period in which they occur.

Stock-based compensation expense in the accompanying Statements of Operations totaled $22 million and $24 million during the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and $72 million and $73 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. These amounts are included in Corporate expense in the Company’s Statements of Operations.

2015 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2015 Plan”)

During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, as part of the annual incentive program, the Company granted 2.2 million RSUs to eligible participants with an aggregate fair value of $76 million and generally vest ratably on each anniversary over three years from the grant date. Each RSU represents the right to receive payment in respect of one share of the Company’s Common Stock.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company also granted 233 thousand PSUs to eligible participants with an aggregate fair value of $6 million that are primarily scheduled to cliff vest after three years from the date of grant. On the vesting date, recipients will receive between 0% and 200% of the target number of PSUs granted, in the form of Company Common Stock, based on the achievement of specified performance and service conditions and terms of the underlying award granted. The fair value of the PSUs is based on the market price of our common stock when a mutual understanding of the key terms and conditions of the awards between the Company and recipient is achieved. The awards are remeasured each period until such an understanding is reached.

In addition, during the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company granted 350 thousand MSUs to eligible participants with an aggregate fair value of $16 million that are primarily scheduled to cliff vest after three years from the date of grant. On the vesting date, recipients will receive between 0% and 200% of the target number of MSUs granted, in the form of Company Common Stock, based on the achievement of specified market and service conditions and terms of the underlying award granted. The grant date fair value of the MSUs was determined using a Monte-Carlo simulation model. Key assumptions for the Monte-Carlo simulation model are the risk-free interest rate, expected volatility, expected dividends and correlation coefficient. The effect of market conditions is considered in determining the grant date fair value, which is not subsequently revised based on actual performance.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, 1.2 million, 80 thousand and 107 thousand of RSUs, PSUs and MSUs, respectively, vested under the 2015 Plan.

Share Repurchase Programs

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, we reached the limit of authorized repurchases under our $150 million common stock repurchase plan announced on November 8, 2018, by acquiring 3,872,478 shares of common stock at an aggregate value of $141 million.

(UNAUDITED)

On October 2, 2024, the Company announced that its Board authorized a $500 million common stock repurchase program (the “2024 Share Repurchase Program”). Under the 2024 Share Repurchase Program, the Company may, from time to time, repurchase shares of common stock on the open market (either with or without a 10b5-1 plan) or through privately negotiated transactions. The 2024 Share Repurchase Program has no time limit and may be suspended or discontinued at any time without notice. There is no minimum number of shares of common stock that the Company is required to repurchase under the 2024 Share Repurchase Program. The Company repurchased 1,262,990 shares of common stock at an aggregate value of $50 million during the fourth quarter of 2024.

The following table illustrates the Company’s share repurchases for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024:

			Three Months Ended September 30,												Nine Months Ended September 30,
(In millions, except per share data)			2025						2024						2025						2024
Shares repurchased (a)			3						4						7						4
Total cost (b)			$	79					$	141					$	179					$	141
Average price paid per share			$	25.33					$	36.38					$	24.48					$	36.38

____________________

(a)Shares repurchased reflect repurchases settled during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024. These amounts exclude repurchases, if any, traded but not yet settled on or before September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

(b)Total cost excludes commissions or applicable excise tax.

Under the 2024 Share Repurchase Program, as of September 30, 2025, the Company has authorization to repurchase up to $271 million more of our outstanding common stock. All share repurchases under the 2024 Share Repurchase Program are retired upon repurchase.

Subsequent to September 30, 2025, the Company acquired 770,556 shares of our common stock at an aggregate value of approximately $21 million.

Note 10. Income Taxes

On July 4, 2025, a new tax policy was enacted into law. The new tax policy makes permanent key elements of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act from 2017, including 100% bonus depreciation, domestic research cost expensing, and the business interest expense limitation. During the quarter, as a result of the enactment of the legislation, the Company recorded a tax benefit of approximately $35 million, related to a decrease in federal and state valuation allowances against the deferred tax assets for excess business interest expense.

The Company utilized a discrete effective tax rate method, as allowed by ASC 740-270 “Income Taxes, Interim Reporting,” to calculate taxes for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024. The Company determined that small changes in estimated “ordinary” income would result in significant changes in the estimated annual effective tax rate (“AETR”), and therefore, the AETR method would not provide a reliable estimate.

Income Tax Allocation

(In millions)			2025						2024						2025						2024
Income (loss) before income taxes			$	(64)					$	52					$	(203)					$	(167)

Effective tax rate			39.1		%				82.7		%				0.5		%				(40.7)		%

The Company classifies accruals for uncertain tax positions within Other long-term liabilities on the Balance Sheets, separate from any related income tax payable or deferred income taxes. Reserve amounts relate to any potential income tax liabilities resulting from uncertain tax positions as well as potential interest or penalties associated with those liabilities.

Management assesses the available positive and negative evidence to estimate if sufficient future taxable income will be generated to use existing deferred tax assets. The Company is carrying a valuation allowance on certain federal and state deferred tax assets that are not more likely than not to be realized in the future. The Company has assessed the changes to the valuation allowance, including realization of the disallowed interest expense deferred tax asset, using the integrated approach.

(UNAUDITED)

The income tax provision for the three months ended September 30, 2025 differed from the expected income tax provision based on the federal tax rate of 21% primarily due to a decrease in federal and state valuation allowances against the deferred tax assets for excess business interest expense, primarily related to the change in tax law. The income tax provision for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 differed from the expected income tax provision based on the federal tax rate of 21% primarily due to an increase in federal and state valuation allowances against the deferred tax assets for excess business interest expense.

The income tax provision for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 differed from the expected income tax provision based on the federal tax rate of 21% primarily due to an increase in federal and state valuation allowances against the deferred tax assets for excess business interest expense.

The Company, including its subsidiaries, files tax returns with federal, state, and foreign jurisdictions. The Company does not have tax sharing agreements with the other members within its consolidated group. The Company is subject to exam by various state and foreign tax authorities. With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to US federal or state and local tax assessments by tax authorities for years before 2021, and it is possible that the amount of the liability for unrecognized tax benefits could change during the next 12 months.

Note 11. Related Party and Affiliate Transactions

C. S. & Y. Associates

The Company owns the entire parcel on which Eldorado Resort Casino Reno is located, except for approximately 30,000 square feet which is leased from C. S. & Y. Associates (“CSY”) (the “CSY Lease”). CSY is a general partnership in which a trust has an approximate 27% interest. The Company’s Executive Chairman of the Board, Gary L. Carano, and his siblings are direct or indirect beneficiaries of the trust. The CSY Lease expires on June 30, 2057. Annual rent pursuant to the CSY Lease is currently $0.6 million, paid monthly. Annual rent is subject to periodic rent escalations of 1 to 2 percent through the term of the lease. Commensurate with its interest, the trust receives directly from the Company approximately 27% of the rent paid by the Company. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, there were no amounts due to or from CSY.

CVA Holdco, LLC

In May 2023, the Company entered into a joint venture, CVA Holdco, LLC, with the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians to construct, own and operate a gaming facility in Danville, Virginia (“Caesars Virginia”). Caesars Virginia opened in a temporary facility on May 15, 2023 followed by the completion of construction and opening of the permanent facility on December 17, 2024. As the managing member, the Company operates the business and has managed the development, construction, financing, marketing, leasing, maintenance and day-to-day operation of the various phases of the project. The Company holds a 50.0% variable interest in the joint venture and is the primary beneficiary; as such, the joint venture’s operations are included in the Financial Statements, with a minority interest recorded reflecting the operations attributed to the other partner. The Company participates ratably, based on ownership percentage, in the profits and losses of the joint venture. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company made distributions totaling $76 million to the partner.

Pompano Joint Venture

In April 2018, the Company entered into a joint venture with Cordish Companies (“Cordish”) to plan and develop a mixed-use entertainment and hospitality destination expected to be located on unused land adjacent to the casino at the Company’s Pompano property. As the managing member, Cordish will operate the business and manage the development, construction, financing, marketing, leasing, maintenance and day-to-day operation of the various phases of the project. Additionally, Cordish is responsible for the development of the master plan for the project with the Company’s input and will submit it for the Company’s review and approval. While the Company holds a 50% variable interest in the joint venture, it is not the primary beneficiary; as such, the investment in the joint venture is accounted for using the equity method and is recorded in Investments in and advances to unconsolidated affiliates on the Balance Sheets. The Company participates evenly with Cordish in the profits and losses of the joint venture, which are included in Transaction and other costs, net on the Statements of Operations.

Note 12. Segment Information

The executive decision maker of the Company reviews operating results, assesses performance and makes decisions on a “significant market” basis. Management views each of the Company’s casinos as an operating segment. Operating segments are aggregated based on their similar economic characteristics, types of customers, types of services and products provided, and their management and reporting structure. The Company’s principal operating activities occur in four reportable segments. The reportable segments are based on the similar characteristics of the operating segments with the way management assesses these results and allocates resources, which is a consolidated view that adjusts for the effect of certain transactions between these reportable segments within Caesars: (1) Las Vegas, (2) Regional, (3) Caesars Digital, and (4) Managed and Branded, in addition to Corporate and Other. See table below for a summary of these segments.

On December 12, 2024, we sold the LINQ Promenade, which is an open-air dining, entertainment, and retail promenade next to The LINQ Hotel & Casino (the “LINQ”). We continue to operate the High Roller, a 550-foot observation wheel, and the Fly LINQ Zipline attraction, located on the east side of the Las Vegas Strip next to the LINQ. The CAESARS FORUM is a 550,000 square feet conference center with 300,000 square feet of flexible meeting space, two of the largest pillarless ballrooms in the world and direct access to the LINQ.

Corporate and Other includes certain unallocated corporate overhead costs and other adjustments, including eliminations of transactions among segments, to reconcile to the Company’s consolidated results.

The Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) is the Chief Executive Officer. The CODM assesses segment performance by using Adjusted EBITDA, which is defined and reconciled to net income (loss) below.

The CODM uses Adjusted EBITDA during the annual budgeting process and evaluates budget-to-actual variances on a regular basis to make decisions about the allocation of operating and capital resources. Annual incentive awards and bonus plans have historically been based on the achievement of Adjusted EBITDA as a primary metric as the Company believes it most accurately reflects our results and represents a key metric in our industry.

____________________

(a)The ‘Other segment expenses’ category for each of our reportable segments primarily includes:

•Las Vegas and Regional Segments - Cost of sales associated with food, beverage and retail offerings; commission fees, talent fees and ticketing expenses associated with entertainment offerings; utility costs; costs of supplies; repairs and maintenance charges; professional fees; marketing and advertising expenses; software and licensing expenses; rental costs; and insurance expense.

•Caesars Digital - Labor costs directly associated with the operation and maintenance of the digital platforms; professional fees; marketing and advertising expenses; and software and license expenses.

•Managed and Branded - Reimbursable expenses which are primarily payroll costs associated with our managed properties.

•Corporate and Other - Unallocated corporate payroll and overhead costs.

Reconciliation of Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Caesars to Adjusted EBITDA by Segment

Adjusted EBITDA is presented as a measure of the Company’s performance. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as revenues less certain operating expenses and is comprised of net income (loss) before (i) interest income and interest expense, net of interest capitalized, (ii) income tax (benefit) provision, (iii) depreciation and amortization, and (iv) certain items that we do not consider indicative of our ongoing operating performance at an operating property level.

In evaluating Adjusted EBITDA you should be aware that, in the future, we may incur expenses that are the same or similar to some of the adjustments in this presentation. The presentation of Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an inference that future results will be unaffected by unusual or unexpected items.

Adjusted EBITDA is a financial measure commonly used in our industry and should not be construed as an alternative to net income (loss) as an indicator of operating performance or as an alternative to cash flows provided by operating activities as a measure of liquidity (as determined in accordance with GAAP). Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies within the industry. Adjusted EBITDA is included because management uses Adjusted EBITDA to measure performance and allocate resources, and believes that Adjusted EBITDA provides investors with additional information consistent with that used by management.

Objective

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) is intended to be a narrative explanation of the financial statements and other statistical data that should be read in conjunction with the accompanying financial statements to enhance an investor’s understanding of our financial condition, changes in financial condition and results of operations. Our objectives are: (i) to provide a narrative explanation of our financial statements that will enable investors to see the Company through the eyes of management; (ii) to enhance the overall financial disclosure and provide the context within which financial information should be analyzed; and (iii) to provide information about the quality of, and potential variability of, our earnings and cash flows so that investors can ascertain the likelihood of whether past performance is indicative of future performance.

Overview

We are a geographically diversified gaming and hospitality company that was founded in 1973 by the Carano family with the opening of the Eldorado Hotel Casino in Reno, Nevada. Beginning in 2005, we grew through a series of acquisitions, including the acquisition of MTR Gaming Group, Inc. in 2014, Isle of Capri Casinos, Inc. in 2017, Tropicana Entertainment, Inc. in 2018, Caesars Entertainment Corporation in 2020 and William Hill PLC in 2021. Our ticker symbol on the NASDAQ Stock Market is “CZR.”

We own, lease or manage an aggregate of 52 domestic properties in 18 states with approximately 51,600 slot machines, video lottery terminals and e-tables, approximately 2,800 table games and approximately 45,600 hotel rooms as of September 30, 2025. In addition, we have other properties in North America that are authorized to use the brands and marks of Caesars Entertainment, Inc., as well as other non-gaming properties. Our primary source of revenue is generated by our gaming operations, which includes our casino properties, retail and online sports betting, and online gaming. Additionally, we utilize our hotels, restaurants, bars, entertainment, racing, retail shops and other services to attract customers to our properties.

As of September 30, 2025, we owned 22 of our casinos and leased 24 casinos in the U.S. We lease 18 casinos from VICI Properties L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“VICI”), pursuant to a regional lease, a Las Vegas lease and a Joliet lease (the “VICI Leases”). In addition, we lease six casinos from GLP Capital, L.P., the operating partnership of Gaming and Leisure Properties, Inc. (“GLPI”) pursuant to a Master Lease (as amended, the “GLPI Master Lease”) and a Lumière lease associated with our Horseshoe St. Louis property (together with the GLPI Master Lease, the “GLPI Leases”).

We operate and conduct retail and online sports wagering across 33 jurisdictions in North America, 26 of which offer online sports betting. Additionally, we operate iGaming in five jurisdictions in North America. The map below illustrates Caesars Digital’s presence as of September 30, 2025:

We have a partnership with NYRABets LLC, the official online wagering platform of the New York Racing Association, Inc., and operate the Caesars Racebook app in 22 states as of September 30, 2025. The Caesars Racebook app provides access for pari-mutuel wagering at over 300 racetracks around the world as well as livestreaming of races. Wagers placed can earn credits towards our Caesars Rewards loyalty program or points which can be redeemed for free wagering credits.

We continue to expand our Caesars Digital footprint into other states with the Caesars Sportsbook, Caesars Racebook and iGaming mobile apps as jurisdictions legalize or provide necessary approvals. No customers under 21 years old are allowed to wager on any of the Caesars Sportsbook, Caesars Racebook or iGaming mobile apps.

We periodically divest assets to raise capital or, in previous cases, to comply with conditions, terms, obligations or restrictions imposed by antitrust, gaming and other regulatory entities. The following is a summary of divestitures recently completed as of September 30, 2025:

Investments and Partnerships

We have investments in unconsolidated affiliates accounted for under the equity method which are recorded in Investments in and advances to unconsolidated affiliates on the Balance Sheets.

Pompano Joint Venture

In April 2018, we entered into a joint venture with Cordish Companies (“Cordish”) to plan and develop a mixed-use entertainment and hospitality destination expected to be located on unused land adjacent to our Pompano property. As the managing member, Cordish will operate the business and manage the development, construction, financing, marketing, leasing, maintenance and day-to-day operation of the various phases of the project. Additionally, Cordish is responsible for the development of the master plan for the project with our input and will submit it for our review and approval. While we hold a 50% variable interest in the joint venture, we are not the primary beneficiary; as such, the investment in the joint venture is accounted for using the equity method. We participate evenly with Cordish in the profits and losses of the joint venture, which are included in Transaction and other costs, net on the Statements of Operations.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, we received distributions totaling $23 million and recorded $1 million of income related to the joint venture. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, our investment in the joint venture was $97 million and $119 million, respectively.

Reportable Segments

Segment results in this MD&A are presented consistent with the way our management reviews operating results, assesses performance and makes decisions on a “significant market” basis. Management views each of the Company’s casinos as an operating segment. Operating segments are aggregated based on their similar economic characteristics, types of customers, types of services and products provided, and their management and reporting structure. Our principal operating activities occur in four reportable segments: (1) Las Vegas, (2) Regional, (3) Caesars Digital, and (4) Managed and Branded, in addition to Corporate and Other.

Presentation of Financial Information

The presentation of financial information herein for the periods after our completed divestitures, described above, is not fully comparable to the periods prior to such divestitures.

This MD&A is intended to provide information to assist in better understanding and evaluating our financial condition and results of operations. Our historical operating results may not be indicative of our future results of operations because of the factor described in the preceding paragraph and the changing competitive landscape in each of our markets, including changes in market and societal trends, as well as by factors discussed elsewhere herein. We recommend that you read this MD&A in conjunction with our unaudited Financial Statements and the notes to those statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Key Performance Metrics

Our primary source of revenue is generated by our gaming operations, which includes our casino properties, retail and online sports betting, and online gaming. Additionally, we utilize our hotels, restaurants, bars, entertainment venues, retail shops, racing and other services to attract customers to our properties. Our operating results are highly dependent on the volume and quality of customers staying at, or visiting, our properties and using our sports betting, horse racing and iGaming applications.

Key performance metrics include volume indicators such as drop or handle, which refer to amounts wagered by our customers. The amount of volume we retain, which is not fully controllable by us, is recognized as casino revenues and is referred to as our win or hold. Slot win percentage is typically in the range of approximately 9% to 11% of slot handle. Table games hold percentage is typically in the range of approximately 16% to 23% of table games drop. Sports betting hold is typically in the range of 7% to 11% and iGaming hold typically ranges from 3% to 5%. In addition, hotel occupancy, which is the average percentage of available hotel rooms occupied during a period, is a key indicator for our hotel business in the Las Vegas segment. Complimentary and discounted rooms are treated as occupied rooms in our calculation of hotel occupancy. The key metrics we utilize to measure our profitability and performance are Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin. See “Results of Operations” section below.

Significant Factors Impacting Financial Results

The following summary highlights the significant factors impacting our financial results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024:

•Economic Factors Impacting Discretionary Spending – Gaming and other leisure activities we offer represent discretionary expenditures that may be sensitive to economic downturns, which impact the behavior among the components of our customer mix differently. We monitor current and recent trends, including inflation, interest rates, global hostilities, trade tension and related actions, such as the imposition of tariffs between the United States and other countries, and the associated effects, if any, on travel, visitation, our customers, and our operations.

•Debt Transactions – On July 8, 2025, we fully redeemed all of the $546 million outstanding principal amount of the CEI Senior Notes due 2027 and paid the related accrued interest and expenses with borrowings under the CEI Revolving Credit Facility and proceeds received from the partial repayment and sale of $225 million of notes receivable related to the previously disclosed WSOP trademark sale. We refinanced and extended the maturities of outstanding debt in the amount of $4.4 billion in February 2024, shifting a portion of our outstanding debt from fixed rate to variable rate debt, and reduced interest rate margins for both the CEI Term Loan B and CEI Term Loan B-1 in May 2024. These refinancing activities have resulted in a significant reduction in interest expense and associated cash paid for interest for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025.

•Impairment Charges – During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, we did not recognize any impairment charges. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, we recognized impairment charges in our Regional segment related to trademarks, gaming rights and goodwill totaling $118 million.

Consolidated net revenues remained substantially flat for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to the same prior year periods, with mixed results between gaming and non-gaming revenues. Casino revenues increased driven by significant growth in iGaming handle coupled with improved iGaming hold in our Caesars Digital segment and the recently completed development projects of Caesars Virginia and Caesars New Orleans, offset in part by certain competitive markets in our Regional segment. Net revenues in the Las Vegas segment were down, primarily due to lower gaming and non-gaming revenue, consistent with visitation trends city-wide and unfavorable table games hold, as compared to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024.

Casino expenses consist principally of salaries and wages, gaming taxes and marketing and advertising costs attributable to our gaming operations. Food and beverage expenses consist principally of salaries and wages and costs of goods sold associated with our food and beverage operations. Hotel expenses consist principally of salaries and wages and supplies associated with our hotel operations. Other expenses consist principally of salaries and wages, costs of goods sold associated with our retail operations, entertainment costs, including professional talent fees, reimbursable management costs (described below) and other operations.

Casino expenses increased for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to the same prior year periods. Casino expenses rose in connection with increased revenues in our Caesars Digital and Regional segments and targeted customer reinvestment in certain competitive markets in our Regional segment. Gaming taxes increased in connection with additional casino revenues, as well as the impact of increased gaming tax rates on sports betting wagers and iGaming in certain states, which took effect on July 1, 2025. Increased casino expenses were partially offset by decreased marketing expenses in our Las Vegas segment associated with the Super Bowl held in Las Vegas in the first quarter of 2024. Food and beverage and hotel expenses have increased due to incremental wages correlating with additional revenues associated with the opening of

Caesars Virginia’s permanent facility and the completed expansion of Caesars New Orleans, as well as higher union and non-union wages. We continue to focus on labor efficiencies across the enterprise to manage increased labor costs.

General and administrative expenses include items such as information technology, facility maintenance, utilities, property and liability insurance, expenses for administrative departments such as accounting, compliance, purchasing, human resources, legal, internal audit, property taxes and marketing expenses indirectly related to our gaming and non-gaming operations.

Corporate expenses include unallocated expenses such as payroll, inclusive of the annual bonus, stock-based compensation, professional fees, cybersecurity and other various expenses not directly related to the Company’s operations.

Impairment charges were recorded within our Regional segment in June 2024 as a result of a decrease in projected future cash flows at certain properties primarily due to localized competition.

Depreciation and amortization expenses increased for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to the same prior year periods, primarily related to recently completed construction projects.

Transaction and other costs, net primarily includes non-cash losses on the write down and disposal of assets, gains and losses on the sale of certain assets, certain non-recurring litigation reserves, non-recurring asset recoveries, professional services for transaction and integration costs, various contract exit or termination costs, pre-opening costs in connection with our new property openings and non-cash changes in equity method investments. For the three months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to the same prior year period, transaction and other costs decreased due to non-recurring asset recoveries. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to the same prior year period, transaction and other costs increased due to non-recurring litigation reserves.

____________________

*    Not meaningful.

Interest expense, net decreased for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to the same prior year periods, primarily due a reduction in outstanding debt and our strategic shift in our debt mix from higher fixed rate debt to variable rate debt during the first quarter of 2024, which has benefitted from recent interest rate cuts. Capitalized interest has also decreased for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to the same prior year periods, as construction projects in the prior year have been completed.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, loss on extinguishment of debt was related to the full redemption of the CEI Senior Notes due 2027. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, loss on extinguishment of debt was primarily related to the prepayments of the CEI Senior Secured Notes due 2025, the Caesars Resort Collection Senior Secured Notes, and the partial prepayment of the CEI Term Loan B.

Other income for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 primarily represents a change in the estimate of our disputed claims liability.

The income tax provision for the three months ended September 30, 2025 differed from the expected income tax provision based on the federal tax rate of 21% primarily due to a decrease in federal and state valuation allowances against the deferred tax assets for excess business interest expense, primarily related to the change in tax law. The income tax provision for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 differed from the expected income tax provision based on the federal tax rate of 21% primarily due to an increase in federal and state valuation allowances against the deferred tax assets for excess business interest expense.

Our Las Vegas segment’s net revenues, net income, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin decreased for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to the same prior year periods, primarily due to city-wide visitation trends that have resulted in lower gaming and non-gaming revenue. Table and slot volumes declined, coupled with unfavorable table games hold, particularly during the third quarter, resulting in current year third quarter table games hold at the low end of the typical range while prior year third quarter table games hold exceeded the typical range. Similarly, declines in city-wide visitation have resulted in lower hotel occupancy and room rates compared to the prior year periods. Other revenue declined as compared to the same prior year periods primarily due to the sale of the LINQ Promenade during the fourth quarter of 2024.

Slot win percentage in the Las Vegas segment for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 was within our typical range.

Our Regional segment’s net revenues improved for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to the same prior year periods, primarily due to the positive results driven by our recently completed Caesars Virginia and Caesars New Orleans development projects. These increases were partially offset by the continued impact of competition and inclement weather in several of our regional markets, as well as construction disruption in Lake Tahoe. Adjusted EBITDA remained stable for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to the same prior year periods, primarily due to increased labor costs and targeted customer reinvestment in certain competitive markets during the second quarter. Net income decreased for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to the prior year periods, due to additional depreciation expense resulting from the recently completed development projects.

Slot win percentage in the Regional segment for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 was within our typical range.

Promotional and complimentary incentives for online poker were $4 million and $5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and $12 million and $11 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

(b)Caesars Digital generated an additional $193 million and $191 million of sports betting handle for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and $661 million and $669 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, which is not included in this table, for select wholly-owned and third-party operations for which Caesars Digital provides services and we receive all, or a share of, the net profits. Hold related to these operations was 11.0% and 12.7%, for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and 11.1% and 10.5% for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Sports betting handle includes $9 million and $10 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and $31 million and $32 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, related to horse racing and pari-mutuel wagers.

Caesars Digital’s net revenues, net income (loss), Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA margin improved significantly for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to the same prior year period, primarily due to higher iGaming handle and iGaming hold coupled with improved sports betting hold. For the three months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to the same prior year period, increases in iGaming handle and hold drove an increase in net revenues. Customer friendly sports betting outcomes resulted in sports betting hold at the lower end of our expected range which offset growth in sports betting handle. Net income (loss), Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin were negatively impacted by: (i) the loss of highly profitable licensing revenue in connection with the sale of the WSOP trademark, (ii) additional processing fees, platform costs, and gaming taxes resulting from increased iGaming volumes, and (iii) recent increases in online gaming tax rates in certain states.

As sports betting and online casinos expand through increased state or jurisdictional legalization, new product launches, and customer adoption, variations in hold percentages and increases in promotional and marketing expenses in highly competitive markets may negatively impact Caesars Digital’s net revenues, net income (loss), Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin in comparison to current or prior periods.

We manage several properties and license rights to the use of certain of our brands. These revenue agreements typically include reimbursement of certain costs that we incur directly. Such costs are primarily related to payroll costs incurred on behalf of the properties under management. The revenue related to these reimbursable management costs has a direct impact on our evaluation of Adjusted EBITDA margin which, when excluded, reflects margins typically realized from such agreements.

Supplemental Unaudited Presentation of Consolidated Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA”) for the Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2025 and 2024

Adjusted EBITDA (described below), a non-GAAP financial measure, has been presented as a supplemental disclosure because it is a widely used measure of performance and basis for valuation of companies in our industry and we believe that this non-GAAP supplemental information will be helpful in understanding our ongoing operating results. Management has historically used 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 a full understanding of our core operating results and as a means to evaluate period-to-period results. Adjusted EBITDA represents net income (loss) before interest income and interest expense net of interest capitalized, (benefit) provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation expense, (gain) loss on extinguishment of debt, impairment charges, other (income) loss, net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests, transaction costs associated with our acquisitions, developments, and divestitures, and non-cash changes in equity method investments. Adjusted EBITDA also excludes the expense associated with certain of our leases as these transactions were accounted for as financing obligations and the associated expense is included in interest expense. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of performance or liquidity calculated in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). Adjusted EBITDA is unaudited and should not be considered an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income (loss) as an indicator of our operating performance. Uses of cash flows that are not reflected

in Adjusted EBITDA include capital expenditures, interest payments, income taxes, debt principal repayments, distributions to our noncontrolling interest owners and payments under our leases with affiliates of VICI and GLPI, which can be significant. As a result, Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as a measure of our liquidity. Other companies that provide Adjusted EBITDA information may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do. The definition of Adjusted EBITDA may not be the same as the definitions used in any of our debt agreements.

The following table summarizes our Adjusted EBITDA for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, in addition to reconciling net income (loss) attributable to Caesars to Adjusted EBITDA in accordance with GAAP (unaudited):

			Three Months Ended September 30,												Nine Months Ended September 30,

Total Adjusted EBITDA			$	884					$	996					$	2,723					$	2,841

____________________

(a)Other income for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 primarily represents a change in the estimate of our disputed claims liability.

(b)Impairment charges for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 includes impairment within our Regional segment as a result of a decrease in projected cash flows at certain properties primarily due to localized competition.

(c)Transaction costs and other, net primarily includes costs related to non-cash losses on the write down and disposal of assets, certain non-recurring litigation reserves, non-recurring asset recoveries, professional services for transaction and integration costs, various contract exit or termination costs, pre-opening costs in connection with our new property openings, and non-cash changes in equity method investments.

(d)Adjustment for pre-disposition results of operations reflecting the subtraction of results of operations for the LINQ Promenade prior to divestiture, for the relevant periods. Such figures are based on unaudited internal financial statements and have not been reviewed by the Company’s auditors for the periods presented. The additional financial information is included to enable the comparison of current results with results of prior periods.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We are a holding company, and our only significant assets are ownership interests in our subsidiaries. Our ability to fund our obligations depends on existing cash on hand, cash flows from our subsidiaries and our ability to raise capital. Our primary sources of liquidity and capital resources are existing cash on hand, cash flows from operations, availability of borrowings under our CEI Revolving Credit Facility and proceeds from the issuance of debt and equity securities. We may, from time to time, seek to repurchase our common stock or prepay our outstanding indebtedness. Any such purchases or prepayments may be funded by existing cash balances or the incurrence of debt. The amount and timing of any repurchase of debt or common stock will be based on business and market conditions, capital availability, compliance with debt covenants and other considerations. Our cash requirements may fluctuate significantly depending on our decisions with respect to business acquisitions or divestitures and strategic capital and marketing investments.

As of September 30, 2025, our cash on hand and borrowing capacity was as follows:

(In millions)			September 30, 2025
Cash and cash equivalents			$	836
Revolver capacity (a)			2,085
Revolver capacity committed to letters of credit			(83)
Revolver capacity committed as regulatory requirement			(46)
Total			$	2,792

____________________

(a)Revolver capacity includes $2.1 billion under the CEI Revolving Credit Facility, maturing in January 2028, and $25 million under the CVA Revolving Credit Facility, maturing on April 26, 2029, less $40 million reserved for specific purposes.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, our operating activities generated operating cash inflows of $998 million, as compared to operating cash inflows of $766 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, primarily due to changes in working capital, coupled with the results of operations described above.

On October 2, 2024, we announced that our Board of Directors (“Board”) authorized a $500 million common stock repurchase program (the “2024 Share Repurchase Program”). Under the 2024 Share Repurchase Program, we may, from time to time, repurchase shares of common stock on the open market (either with or without a 10b5-1 plan) or through privately negotiated transactions. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, we acquired 3,134,500 and 7,322,966 shares of our common stock at an aggregate value of $79 million and $179 million. Under the 2024 Share Repurchase Program, as of September 30, 2025, we have authorization to repurchase up to $271 million more of our outstanding common stock. Subsequent to September 30, 2025, we acquired 770,556 shares of our common stock at an aggregate value of approximately $21 million. See “Share Repurchase Program” below for details.

On July 8, 2025, we fully redeemed all of the $546 million outstanding principal amount of the CEI Senior Notes due 2027 and paid the related accrued interest and expenses with borrowings under the CEI Revolving Credit Facility and proceeds received from the partial repayment and sale of $225 million of notes receivable related to the previously disclosed WSOP trademark sale.

We expect that our primary capital requirements going forward will relate to servicing our outstanding indebtedness, rent payments under our GLPI Leases and VICI Leases, and the expansion and maintenance of our properties. Beginning in 2025 we have had, and expect to continue having, additional cash uses for operating activities as a result of federal and certain state income taxes.

A significant portion of our liquidity needs are for debt service and payments associated with our leases. Our estimated debt service (including principal and interest) is approximately $188 million for the remainder of 2025. We also lease certain real property assets from third parties, including VICI and GLPI. The VICI Leases are subject to annual escalations, that take effect in November of each year, based on the Consumer Price Index (“CPI”). In addition to the CPI escalator, our VICI Leases are also subject to a variable rent adjustment based on certain historical net revenues of our leased properties which began in November 2024. The next such lease year with a variable rent adjustment begins November 2027. We estimate our lease payments to VICI and GLPI to be approximately $338 million for the remainder of 2025.

We make capital expenditures and perform continuing refurbishment and maintenance at our properties to maintain our quality standards. Our capital expenditure requirements for the remainder of 2025 include the completion of expansion and rebranding projects and hotel renovations. In addition, we anticipate continued investment in our Caesars Sportsbook and iGaming applications.

Cash used for capital expenditures totaled $648 million and $1.0 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, related to our growth, renovation, maintenance, and other capital projects. The following table summarizes our capital expenditures for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, and an estimated range of capital expenditures for the remainder of 2025.

			Nine Months Ended September 30, 2025						Estimate of Remaining Capital Expenditures for 2025
(In millions)			Actual						Low						High
Growth and renovation projects			$	188					$	30					$	50
Caesars Digital			64						15						25
Maintenance projects			278						75						100
Total estimated capital expenditures from unrestricted cash			530						120						175
Caesars Virginia (a)			118						—						20
Total			$	648					$	120					$	195

___________________

(a)Capital expenditures associated with Caesars Virginia are expected to be funded from cash on-hand generated from the operations of Caesars Virginia, or through the Caesars Virginia, LLC Credit Agreement.

We have agreements with certain professional sports leagues and teams, sporting event facilities and media companies for tickets, suites, advertising, marketing, promotional and sponsorship opportunities including communication with partner customer databases. Some of the agreements provide us with exclusivity to access the aforementioned rights within the casino and/or sports betting category. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, obligations related to these agreements were $342 million and $421 million, respectively, with contracts extending through 2040. These obligations are composed of various third-party agreements which have been entered into by us for certain of our Las Vegas and Regional properties, or our Caesars Digital segment. The agreements include leasing of event suites that are generally considered short-term leases for which we do not record a right of use asset or lease liability. We recognize expenses in the period services are received in accordance with the various agreements. In addition, assets or liabilities may be recorded related to the timing of payments as required by the respective agreement.

We have periodically divested assets to raise capital or, in previous cases, to comply with conditions, terms, obligations or restrictions imposed by antitrust, gaming and other regulatory entities. If an agreed upon selling price for future divestitures does not exceed the carrying value of the assets, we may be required to record additional impairment charges in future periods which may be material.

We expect that our current liquidity, including availability of borrowings under our committed credit facility and cash flows from operations will be sufficient to fund our operations, capital requirements and service our outstanding indebtedness for the next twelve months and beyond.

Debt and Master Lease Covenant Compliance

The CEI Revolving Credit Facility, the CEI Term Loan A, the CEI Term Loan B, the CEI Term Loan B-1 and the indentures governing the CEI Senior Secured Notes due 2030, the CEI Senior Secured Notes due 2032, the CEI Senior Notes due 2029 and the CEI Senior Notes due 2032 contain covenants which are standard and customary for these types of agreements. These include negative covenants, which, subject to certain exceptions and baskets, limit our ability to (among other items) incur additional indebtedness, make investments, make restricted payments, including dividends, grant liens, sell assets and make acquisitions.

The CEI Revolving Credit Facility and the CEI Term Loan A include a maximum net total leverage ratio financial covenant of 6.50:1. In addition, the CEI Revolving Credit Facility and the CEI Term Loan A include a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio financial covenant of 2.0:1. From and after the repayment of the CEI Term Loan A, the financial covenants applicable to the CEI Revolving Credit Facility will be tested solely to the extent that certain testing conditions are satisfied. Failure to comply with such covenants could result in an acceleration of the maturity of indebtedness outstanding under the relevant debt agreement.

The GLPI Leases and VICI Leases contain certain covenants requiring minimum capital expenditures based on a percentage of net revenues along with maintaining certain financial ratios. The GLPI Leases require the Company to maintain a minimum adjusted revenue to rent ratio of 1.20:1, applicable to the operations of the underlying leased properties.

The CVA Revolving Credit Facility and the CVA Delayed Draw Term Loan contain covenants which are standard and customary for this type of agreement, including a maximum net total leverage ratio financial covenant of 4:1 and a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio financial covenant of 1.05:1, applicable to the operations of Caesars Virginia.

As of September 30, 2025, we were in compliance with all of the applicable financial covenants described above.

Share Repurchase Programs

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, we reached the limit of authorized repurchases under our $150 million common stock repurchase plan announced on November 8, 2018, by acquiring 3,872,478 shares of common stock at an aggregate value of $141 million.

On October 2, 2024, we announced that our Board authorized a $500 million common stock repurchase program. Under the 2024 Share Repurchase Program, we may, from time to time, repurchase shares of common stock on the open market (either with or without a 10b5-1 plan) or through privately negotiated transactions. We repurchased 1,262,990 shares of our common stock at an aggregate value of $50 million during the fourth quarter of 2024.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, we acquired 3,134,500 and 7,322,966 shares of our common stock at an aggregate value of $79 million and $179 million. Under the 2024 Share Repurchase Program, as of September 30, 2025, we have authorization to repurchase up to $271 million more of our outstanding common stock. The 2024 Share Repurchase Program has no time limit and may be suspended or discontinued at any time without notice. There is no minimum number of shares of common stock that we are required to repurchase under the 2024 Share Repurchase Program.

Subsequent to September 30, 2025, we acquired 770,556 shares of our common stock at an aggregate value of approximately $21 million.

Contractual Obligations

There have been no other material changes during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 to our contractual obligations as disclosed in Part II, Item 7 of the 2024 Annual Report. See Note 5 to our unaudited Financial Statements, which is included elsewhere in this report, for additional information regarding contractual obligations.

Other Liquidity Matters

We are faced with certain contingencies, from time to time, involving litigation, claims, assessments, environmental remediation or compliance. These commitments and contingencies are discussed in greater detail, when applicable, in “Part II, Item 1. Legal Proceedings” and Note 5 to our unaudited Financial Statements, both of which are included elsewhere in this report. See also “Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Business” which is included elsewhere in the 2024 Annual Report.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our critical accounting policies and estimates are included in the 2024 Annual Report. There have been no material changes since December 31, 2024. We have not substantively changed the application of our policies, and there have been no material changes in assumptions or estimation techniques used as compared to those described in the 2024 Annual Report.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not currently have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Market risk is the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices, such as interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and commodity prices. We are exposed to changes in interest rates primarily from variable rate long-term debt arrangements. We manage our interest rate risk by monitoring interest rates, including future projected rates, and adjusting our mix of fixed and variable rate borrowings.

As of September 30, 2025, long-term variable-rate borrowings totaled $6.1 billion under the CEI Term Loans, the CVA Delayed Draw Term Loan and the CEI Revolving Credit Facility, and no amounts were outstanding under the CVA Revolving Credit Facility. As of September 30, 2025, long-term variable-rate borrowings under the CEI Term Loans, the CVA Delayed Draw Term Loan and the CEI Revolving Credit Facility represented approximately 51% of consolidated long-term debt and the weighted average interest rates on our variable and fixed rate debt were 6.53% and 6.18%, respectively.

Table of Contents

41

All of the variable rate debt instruments are subject to Term SOFR interest rates plus a margin.

We evaluate our exposure to market risk by monitoring interest rates in the marketplace and have, on occasion, utilized derivative financial instruments to help manage this risk. We do not utilize derivative financial instruments for trading purposes. There have been no other material quantitative changes in our market risk exposure, or how such risks are managed from the information previously reported under Part II, Item 7A of the 2024 Annual Report.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

(a)Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We have established and maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports that we file under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), is recorded, processed, summarized, evaluated and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer (principal executive officer) and Chief Financial Officer (principal financial officer), of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are effective to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, evaluated and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

(b)Changes in Internal Controls

There were no significant changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10‑Q that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Cautionary Statements Regarding Forward-Looking Information

This report includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Forward-looking statements include statements regarding our strategies, objectives and plans for future development or acquisitions of properties or operations, as well as expectations, future operating results, trends and other information that is not historical information. When used in this report, the terms or phrases such as “anticipates,” “believes,” “projects,” “plans,” “intends,” “expects,” “might,” “may,” “estimates,” “could,” “should,” “would,” “will likely continue,” and variations of such words or similar expressions and their negative forms are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These statements are made on the basis of management’s current views and assumptions regarding future events.

Forward-looking statements are based upon certain underlying assumptions, including any assumptions mentioned with the specific statements, as of the date such statements were made. Such assumptions are in turn based upon internal estimates and analyses of market conditions and trends, management plans and strategies, economic conditions and other factors. Such forward-looking statements are only predictions and involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control, and are subject to change. By their nature, forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties because they relate to events and depend upon future circumstances that may not occur. Actual results and trends may differ materially from any future results, trends, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such statements. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and we assume no duty to update forward-looking statements.
