Income Taxes

Since Caesars Entertainment Outdoors did not have a formal tax sharing agreement in place with Caesars Entertainment for federal income tax purposes, Caesars Entertainment paid all of Caesars Entertainment Outdoors’ federal income taxes.

The tax benefit/expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 is primarily related to the federal and state tax impact of the pre-tax book income/loss. As there was no pre-tax book income/loss recorded for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, no tax benefit/expense was recorded for those periods.
