Commitments and Contingencies

Legal Proceedings

The Company is a party from time to time to various legal actions that arise in the normal course of business. In the opinion of management, the resolution of these other matters will not have a material and adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Leases

The Company primarily leases land, vehicles, slot machines and certain office equipment. The Company determines if an agreement is or contains a lease at inception. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

ROU assets represent the Company's right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company's obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. ROU assets and liabilities are based on the estimated present value of the lease payments over the lease term and are recognized at the lease commencement date.

Since most of the Company's leases do not provide an implicit rate, we use our estimated incremental borrowing rate in determining the present value of lease payments. The estimated incremental borrowing rate is derived from information available at the lease commencement date.

The Company's lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. A limited number of the Company's lease agreements include rental payments adjusted periodically for inflation. Our lease agreements generally do not contain residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.
