Insights
Loss narrows as cash flow and property profitability improve, but leverage remains high.
Full House Resorts generated Q1 2026 revenue of $74.4 million, slightly below the prior year due to the Stockman’s sale and a lost sports wagering contract. Despite this, operating income increased to $2.4 million and Adjusted EBITDA rose 14.7% to $13.2 million, showing better efficiency across most casinos.
Net loss improved to $8.2 million, or $0.23 per share, but the balance sheet is still highly leveraged with $450.0 million of senior secured notes due 2028 and $30.0 million drawn on the revolver. Cash was $31.4 million at March 31 2026, giving some liquidity cushion.
Management emphasized development of the permanent American Place casino and expects to refinance existing bonds as part of that financing, with details once agreements become contractual. They also pointed to seasonal upside from Colorado operations in the summer and ongoing operational improvements at Chamonix, while acknowledging legislative and financing risks in Illinois and construction execution risks noted in the forward-looking statements.
