The company’s 2010 second-quarter revenues declined approximately 2.2 percent to $2,220.7 million from $2,271.4 million in the 2009 second quarter, due primarily to the continuing impact of the recession on customers’ discretionary spending, which was partially offset by revenues associated with our February 2010 acquisition of Planet Hollywood. Loss from operations for the second quarter of 2010 was $0.3 million, compared with income from operations of $6.3 million in the 2009 second quarter. Included in the second quarters of 2010 and 2009 were impairment charges related to goodwill and other non-amortizing intangible assets of $100.0 million and $297.1 million, respectively. Prior to consideration of impairment charges, income from operations for the second quarter 2010 decreased to $99.7 million from $303.4 million in the 2009 second quarter. The decline was driven by the income impact of reduced revenues, increased marketing and labor-related expenses, incremental depreciation and remediation costs in the Las Vegas region, a litigation reserve charge of $25.0 million, and a charge to fully reserve a note-receivable balance related to the Foxwoods project in Philadelphia.

Loss from continuing operations, net of tax, for the second-quarter 2010 was $272.5 million compared with income from continuing operations, net of tax of $2,296.8 million for the year-ago quarter. Loss from continuing operations, net of tax for the second quarter of 2010 included impairment charges for goodwill and non-amortizing intangible assets totaling $100.0 million ($95.9 million, net of taxes). Income from continuing operations, net of tax for the second quarter of 2009 included: i) impairment charges for goodwill and non-amortizing intangible assets totaling $297.1 million ($280.5 million, net of taxes); and ii) gains related to the early extinguishment of debt of $4,279.5 million ($2,589.1 million, net of taxes).

First-half revenues declined 2.6 percent to $4,409.1 million from $4,526.1 million in the first half of 2009. Income from operations for the first six months of 2010 was $225.5 million, compared with $291.7 million in the first half of 2009. Included in income from operations for the first six months of 2010 and 2009 were the aforementioned impairment charges for goodwill and non-amortizing assets totaling $100.0 million ($95.9 million, net of taxes) and $297.1 million ($280.5 million, net of taxes), respectively. Prior to consideration of impairment charges, income from operations for the first half of 2010 decreased to $325.5 million from $588.8 million in the 2009 first half. The decline was driven primarily by the same factors impacting the 2010 second quarter performance.

Loss from continuing operations, net of tax, for the 2010 first half was $466.1 million, compared with income from continuing operations, net of tax of $2,169.4 million for the year-ago period. Included in loss from continuing operations, net of taxes for the first half 2010 were the aforementioned impairment charges for goodwill and non-amortizing assets. Included in income from continuing operations, net of tax, for the first half of 2009 were: i) aforementioned impairment charges for goodwill and non-amortizing assets; and ii) gains related to the early extinguishment of debt of $4,280.7 million ($2,589.8 million, net of taxes).

“During the second quarter, we selectively increased our marketing investments and labor costs in anticipation of an even stronger demand environment, leading to lower operating margins,” said Gary Loveman, Harrah’s Entertainment chairman, chief executive officer and president. “However, after two years of the worst economic downturn since the Great Depression, it appears that year-over-year revenue declines are moderating in virtually all of our markets. To ensure our margins are maintained, we will remain vigilant with respect to our expense structure.

“Looking ahead, we’re encouraged by the recovery of group business in Las Vegas during the second quarter and we expect group business to continue to outperform 2009 for the rest of this year,” Loveman said. “We’re also encouraged by the positive overall revenue trends in the second quarter and expect those to continue, as well.

“During the past two years, we’ve reduced expenses and debt substantially, increased our liquidity to about $3 billion and acquired the Planet Hollywood Resort and Casino in Las Vegas and Thistledown racetrack in Cleveland,” Loveman said. “I believe we’re well-positioned for an eventual legalization of online gaming in the United States, and more capable of capitalizing on additional growth opportunities than at any time in the past two years.”

The company also had significant debt transactions in the second quarter 2010. As previously disclosed, in April 2010, Harrah’s Operating Company., Inc. (“HOC”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Harrah’s Entertainment, issued $750 million in second-priority senior secured notes due 2018. Net proceeds from the offering were used to redeem HOC’s senior notes due in 2010 and senior and senior subordinated notes due in 2011 and to pay down revolving loans outstanding under HOC’s senior secured credit facilities.

On June 3, 2010, Harrah’s Entertainment announced an agreement under which affiliates of Apollo Management VI, LP; TPG Capital, LP, and Paulson & Co. Inc. will exchange $1,118 million of debt for up to approximately 15.6 percent of the common equity of Harrah’s, subject to regulatory approvals and certain other conditions. Harrah’s raised $557 million in the

first stage of the transaction in June 2010 through the sale of senior notes to Apollo, TPG and Paulson, and plans to use the funds for general corporate purposes, including further balance-sheet optimization and strategic investments. The debt-for-equity exchange portion of the agreement is expected to be completed in the 2010 fourth quarter or 2011 first quarter.

“The announced debt-for-equity exchange provides us with additional liquidity to pursue growth opportunities domestically and internationally, reduce our debt and lower our interest expense,” Loveman said. “I’m particularly gratified by the confidence demonstrated by Apollo, TPG and Paulson in the performance of our company and in our prospects for the future.”

A substantial portion of the debt of Harrah’s Entertainment’s consolidated group is issued by Harrah’s Operating Company, Inc. Therefore, the company believes it is meaningful to also provide information pertaining to the results of operations of HOC.

Summaries of results by region follow:

Las Vegas Region

Hotel occupancy remained strong in the mid-90 percent range, and 2010 second-quarter and first-half revenues increased in the Las Vegas Region from the 2009 periods due to the first-quarter 2010 acquisition of Planet Hollywood. Same-store revenue declines of 8.2 percent in the 2010 second quarter resulted from lower room rates due to increased room inventory in the market and lower spend per visitor. In addition to the income impact of reduced revenues, cost reductions were unable to prevent margin declines in the second quarter and first half of 2010. Included in second quarter 2010 income from operations but not in property EBITDA are incremental depreciation associated with the Caesars Palace expansions placed into service late in 2009, as well as increased levels of remediation costs during 2010 at two properties within the region. Included in second-quarter and first-half 2009 income/(loss) from operations was an impairment charge of $255.1 million.

Atlantic City Region

Reduced customer spend per trip led to lower Atlantic City Region revenues during the second quarter of 2010. Income from operations and property EBITDA during the second quarter and first half 2010 were lower than the prior year periods as cost-saving initiatives were unable to offset the income impact of reduced revenues and increased marketing and labor-related expenses.

Louisiana/Mississippi Region

Reduced visitation and customer spend per trip unfavorably impacted the Louisiana/ Mississippi Region revenues during the second quarter and first half of 2010. Included in the 2010 second-quarter and first-half (loss)/income from operations was an impairment charge of $51.0 million related to impairment of intangible assets at one of the region’s properties. The

Revenues in the region declined slightly in the 2010 second quarter and first half from the 2009 comparable periods due to new competition in the market and the continuing impact of the weak economy. Income from operations and property EBITDA for the second quarter and first half of 2010 declined when compared with the 2009 comparable periods primarily due to the income impact of revenue declines.

Other Nevada Region

Second-quarter and first-half consolidated results for the Other Nevada Region declined from the 2009 periods due to lower guest visitation and lower visitor spend per trip. Also contributing to the decline in income from operations for the second quarter and first half 2010 was an impairment charge of $49.0 million related to the impairment of intangible assets at one of the region’s properties.

Revenues from our Managed and International businesses rose in the 2010 second quarter and first half due to strong volumes at our Uruguay and London Clubs properties. Income from operations and property EBITDA increased in the 2010 second quarter and first half compared with 2009 as a result of the increased revenues.

Other items

Prior to the capitalization of interest associated with construction projects primarily during 2009, interest expense decreased by $20.9 million in the 2010 second quarter from the year-ago period. This decrease was due primarily to lower debt levels resulting from the April 2009 debt exchange and from repurchases of debt in open-market transactions that occurred primarily during the second half of 2009.

 

10

In the 2010 second quarter, we recorded a charge of $52.3 million to fully reserve a receivable related to the Foxwoods project in Philadelphia. Also in the second quarter 2010, we recorded a charge of $25 million relating to a previously disclosed litigation matter. These reserves are recorded within project opening costs and other items within our summary of operations.

For the 2010 second quarter, we recorded a tax benefit of $162.1 million on pre-tax loss from continuing operations of $434.6 million, compared with a tax provision of $1,536.2 million on pre-tax income from continuing operations of $3,833.0 million in the 2009 second quarter. The company’s 2010 second-quarter recorded benefit was favorably impacted by the reversal of previously accrued taxes and interest related to a state income tax settlement and other discrete items, partially offset by the unfavorable impact of the goodwill impairment charge for which we received no tax benefit.

(a) Property EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) consists of income/(loss) from operations before depreciation and amortization, write-downs, reserves and recoveries, project opening costs, corporate expense, acquisition and integration costs, income/(losses) on interests in non-consolidated affiliates and amortization of intangible assets. Property EBITDA is a supplemental financial measure used by management, as well as industry analysts, to evaluate our operations. However, Property EBITDA should not be construed as an alternative to loss from operations (as an indicator of our operating performance) or to Cash flows from operating activities (as a measure of liquidity) as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. All companies do not calculate EBITDA in the same manner. As a result, Property EBITDA as presented by our Company may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies.

HARRAH’S ENTERTAINMENT, INC. SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION

RECONCILIATION OF NET (LOSS)/INCOME ATTRIBUTABLE TO HARRAH’S ENTERTAINMENT, INC. TO ADJUSTED EBITDA

(UNAUDITED)

Last twelve months (LTM) Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA further adjusted to exclude unusual items and other adjustments comparable to those required or permitted in calculating covenant compliance under the HOC indenture governing the senior notes, first lien notes, second lien notes and/or our senior secured credit facilities. We believe that the inclusion of supplementary adjustments to EBITDA applied in presenting LTM Adjusted EBITDA are appropriate to provide additional information to investors about certain material non-cash items and about unusual items that we do not expect to continue at the same level in the future. Because not all companies use identical calculations, our presentation of LTM Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.

The following table reconciles Net (loss)/income attributable to Harrah’s Entertainment, Inc. to Adjusted EBITDA for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 and reconciles net (loss)/income attributable to Harrah’s Entertainment, Inc. to LTM Adjusted EBITDA for the last twelve months ended June 30, 2010.

CALCULATION OF ADJUSTED EBITDA

(UNAUDITED)

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA further adjusted to exclude unusual items and other adjustments required or permitted in calculating covenant compliance under the indenture governing the senior notes, first lien notes, second lien notes and/or our senior secured credit facilities. We believe that the inclusion of supplementary adjustments to EBITDA applied in presenting Adjusted EBITDA are appropriate to provide additional information to investors about certain material non-cash items and about unusual items that we do not expect to continue at the same level in the future. Because not all companies use identical calculations, our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.

In connection with the acquisition of the Company by affiliates of Apollo Global Management, LLC and TPG Capital, LP, eight of our properties and their related operating assets were spun off from Harrah’s Operating Company to Harrah’s Entertainment through a series of distributions, liquidations, transfers and contributions, collectively referred to as the “the CMBS Spin-Off.” The eight properties, as of the closing, are Harrah’s Las Vegas, Rio, Flamingo Las Vegas, Harrah’s Atlantic City, Showboat Atlantic City, Harrah’s Lake Tahoe, Harvey’s Lake Tahoe and Bill’s Lake Tahoe. Subsequent to the closing, Paris Las Vegas and Harrah’s Laughlin and their related operating assets were spun off from Harrah’s Operating Company and its subsidiaries to Harrah’s Entertainment, and Harrah’s Lake Tahoe, Harvey’s Lake Tahoe, Bill’s Lake Tahoe and Showboat Atlantic City and their related operating assets were transferred to subsidiaries of Harrah’s Operating Company from Harrah’s Entertainment (the “Post-Close CMBS Transaction”). The properties spun off from Harrah’s Operating Company and owned by Harrah’s Entertainment, whether at closing or after the subsequent transfer, are collectively referred to as “the CMBS properties.” We refer to the CMBS Spin-Off and the Post-Closing CMBS Transaction as the “CMBS Transactions.”

Also in connection with the acquisition by affiliates of Apollo and TPG, London Clubs International Limited (“London Clubs”) and its subsidiaries, with the exception of the subsidiaries related to the South Africa operations, became subsidiaries of Harrah’s Operating Company (“the London Clubs Transfer”). London Clubs and its subsidiaries were previously subsidiaries of Harrah Entertainment.

RECONCILIATION OF NET (LOSS)/INCOME ATTRIBUTABLE TO HARRAH’S OPERATING COMPANY, INC. TO LTM ADJUSTED EBITDA

(UNAUDITED)

LTM Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA further adjusted to exclude unusual items and other adjustments required or permitted in calculating the covenant compliance under the indenture governing the senior notes, first lien notes, second lien notes and/or our senior secured credit facilities. As Planet Hollywood is an unrestricted subsidiary of HOC, adjustments included in the table below related to Planet Hollywood are excluded from the covenant computations under the HOC indenture.

We believe that the inclusion of supplementary adjustments to EBITDA applied in presenting LTM Adjusted EBITDA are appropriate to provide additional information to investors about certain material non-cash items and about unusual items that we do not expect to continue at the same level in the future. Because not all companies use identical calculations, our presentation of LTM Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.
