CEO Comment
John Farahi, Co-Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Monarch, commented: “Our business continued its recovery throughout the third quarter of 2020 as we grew gaming revenue 9%, strengthened adjusted EBITDA margins to 34.5%, and delivered all-time record quarterly adjusted EBITDA of $20.7 million. Third quarter net revenue declined 9% as capacity and other COVID-related constraints impacted visitation and our ability to offer our guests a full range of services and amenities, particularly in hotel and food and beverage. However, operating under COVID restrictions gave us an opportunity to streamline our cost structure and achieve operational efficiencies, resulting in strong adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin.
“At Atlantis, our increased gaming revenue was driven by strong rated guest visits and spending per visit, as well as our ability to operate a full range of casino games. We continued to increase market share to a new record, as guests responded favorably to our safety protocols. Guests also appreciated our decision to bring back, to the greatest extent possible, key amenities.
“Monarch Casino Black Hawk gaming visitation was also strong throughout the third quarter, but revenue was negatively impacted by the lack of table games, for which the state-mandated closure was lifted on September 11th. Looking ahead, we are eagerly anticipating the ballot result of Amendment 77 to the Colorado Constitution on November 3, 2020, which would allow the city of Black Hawk to increase the $100 bet limit and approve new games such as Baccarat and Pai-Gow Tiles. If Amendment 77 passes, those changes could take effect as early as May 1, 2021 and would have a material positive impact on our gaming revenue at Monarch Casino Resort Black Hawk.
“We are nearing the finish line of our construction project in Black Hawk. We anticipate opening the expanded Monarch Casino Resort Spa Black Hawk in the fourth quarter of 2020, with operations ramping up throughout 2021. We are confident that the expanded casino, new hotel and enhanced amenities will be received very favorably by our guests.
“As always, we are dedicated to providing guests with the unmatched service they have come to expect at a Monarch property. Despite the challenges faced in 2020, our operational execution was solid and it demonstrated the competence, dedication and sacrifice of the entire Monarch team. Our guests have been extraordinarily patient and loyal as we navigate the ever-changing operating environment since our properties re-opened.
“During the quarter, we amended and increased the principal amount of our credit facility. We believe that our strong balance sheet positions Monarch for future growth and will allow us to take advantage of acquisition opportunities as they present themselves.”
Summary of 2020 Third Quarter Operating Results
For the 2020 third quarter, consolidated net revenue of $59.9 million represented a decrease of 8.7% from $65.6 million in the prior year. Casino revenues increased 9.1% year-over-year while food and beverage (“F&B”) and hotel revenues decreased 30.0% and 33.1%, respectively. Casino revenues grew as pent-up demand from our guests resulted in increased spending per visit, particularly at the Atlantis, and the Company grew market share at both properties. F&B and hotel revenues declined as a result of capacity and other regulatory limitations which remain in effect in Reno and Black Hawk due to the ongoing pandemic.
Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses for the third quarter of 2020 were $15.9 million compared to $17.9 million in the prior-year period, driven primarily by a decrease in promotional expense, as well as a decrease in repairs and maintenance expense. As a percentage of net revenue, SG&A expense decreased to 26.5% from 27.3% in the prior year period. Casino operating expense as a percentage of casino revenue decreased to 28.3% during the third quarter of 2020 from 34.2% in the prior-year period primarily as a result of targeted cost cutting measures along with higher casino revenue at Atlantis. F&B operating expense as a percentage of F&B revenue decreased to 75.1% during the third quarter of 2020 from 79.4% in the prior year period primarily as a result of a lower cost of goods sold. Hotel operating expense as a percentage of hotel revenue increased to 42.3% compared to 34.8%, primarily due to higher labor costs as a result of an increase in housekeeping wages and lower average daily rate, compared to prior year.
The Company generated consolidated adjusted EBITDA of $20.7 million in the third quarter of 2020, a quarterly record and an increase of $3.3 million, or 19.1%, over the same period a year ago. Net income and diluted EPS for the quarter increased 15.2% and 14.0%, respectively, compared to same period a year ago. The increase in adjusted EBITDA, net income and diluted EPS in the quarter was primarily a result of strong casino performance at Atlantis as well as lower overall expenses across the business given lower amenity offerings due to ongoing regulatory restrictions and an overall reduction in the number of employees.
Monarch Black Hawk Expansion
Summarized below is an update on the Company’s ongoing upgrade and expansion of Monarch Casino Black Hawk:

(2) Includes upgrades to the interior, which were completed in August 2015, additional work to tie the two buildings together, completed in the fourth quarter of 2019, demolition of the original garage, and upgrades to the exterior of the existing facility to match the design of the master planned expansion. (3) The Company anticipates funding the hotel tower and casino expansion, as well as the existing facility exterior upgrades, from a combination of operating cash flow and the amended and restated credit facility (the “Fourth Amended Credit Facility”). (4) As previously disclosed, the Company is in litigation with its Monarch Casino Black Hawk contractor, PCL Construction Services, Inc., which has asserted damage claims against Monarch that also include the impact of claims from certain subcontractors. The amounts set forth by the Company in this table are exclusive of these additional damage amounts as such amounts are disputed by Monarch and also do not reflect counterclaims Monarch has asserted. Monarch is defending the claims and pursuing the counterclaims vigorously. | ||||||||||||
The Company expects to open the expanded Monarch Casino Resort Spa Black Hawk in the fourth quarter of 2020.
Credit Facility and Liquidity
Capital expenditures of $13.7 million in the third quarter of 2020 include construction costs related to the Monarch Casino Black Hawk expansion as well as ongoing capital spending at the Company’s two properties. Capital expenditures during the quarter were funded from free cash flow. Total outstanding debt as of September 30, 2020 was $185 million. On September 3, 2020, Monarch and its lenders entered into an amended and restated credit agreement, which extended the maturity date of the Company’s Amended Credit Facility to September 3, 2023. In addition, it increased the aggregate principal amount of the facility from $241.3 million to $270.0 million (including a $200 million term loan and a $70 million revolving credit facility) and provides an option to increase the facility by up to an additional $75 million.
The Company capitalized $1.8 million and $1.7 million of interest expense in the third quarters of 2020 and 2019, respectively.
Monarch continues to believe that the cash in its interest-bearing money market account and the $70.0 million available under its revolving credit facility as of September 30, 2020 will be sufficient to fund all remaining costs related to the completion of the Monarch Casino Resort Spa Black Hawk expansion and the Company’s ongoing capital expenditures at Atlantis.

(1) | Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, consists of net income plus loss on disposal of assets, provision for income taxes, stock-based compensation expense, other one-time charges, pre-opening expenses, construction litigation expenses, acquisition expenses, interest expense, depreciation and amortization less interest income, any benefit for income taxes and gain on disposal of assets. Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an alternative to operating income (as determined in accordance with US Generally Accepted Accounting Principles), as an indicator of the Company's operating performance, as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities (as determined in accordance with US GAAP) or as a measure of liquidity. This measure enables comparison of the Company's performance over multiple periods, as well as against the performance of other companies in our industry that report Adjusted EBITDA, although some companies do not calculate this measure in the same manner and, therefore, the measure as presented may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies. |
(2) | Amount included in the “Other operating items, net” in the Consolidated Statements of Income. |
(3) | Includes equipment and supplies directly attributable to the pandemic for reopening of properties; such expenses are incremental to normal operations. |
