Live and Historical Racing  Second Quarter(in millions) 2025  2024    Revenue$540.9 $490.2Adjusted EBITDA 296.5  279.2       Second quarter 2025 revenue increased $50.7 million primarily due to a $23.8 million increase from our Virginia HRM venues, a $22.0 million increase from our Kentucky HRM venues, and a $4.9 million increase from Churchill Downs Racetrack. The Virginia HRM increase was primarily due to a $24.4 million net increase from our Northern Virginia venues primarily from the November 2024 opening of The Rose and a $3.4 million increase from the May 2025 expansion at our Richmond venue, partially offset by a $4.0 million net decrease from our five other Virginia venues. The Kentucky HRM increase was primarily due to a $10.0 million net increase from our Western Kentucky venues, a $4.7 million net increase from our Northern Kentucky venues, a $4.1 million net increase from our Louisville venues, and a $3.2 million net increase from our Southwestern venue. The Churchill Downs Racetrack increase was primarily due to record-breaking 2025 Spring Meet wagering and growth in Derby Week wagering and licensing/sponsorship revenue that was partially offset by lower Derby Week ticketing revenue. Second quarter 2025 Adjusted EBITDA increased $17.3 million primarily due to a $15.3 million increase from our Kentucky HRM venues and a $3.0 million increase from our Virginia HRM venues, partially offset by a $1.0 million decrease at Churchill Downs Racetrack. The Kentucky HRM increase was primarily due to a $5.2 million net increase from our Louisville venues, a $4.3 million net increase from our Northern Kentucky venues, a $3.6 million net increase from our Western Kentucky venues, and a $2.2 million net increase from our Southwestern venue. The Virginia HRM increase was primarily due to a $5.6 million net increase from our Northern Virginia venues and a $1.8 million increase from the May 2025 expansion at our Richmond venue, partially offset by a $3.0 million net decrease from our five other Virginia venues and a $1.4 million decrease from increased handle tax. The Churchill Downs Racetrack decrease was primarily due to lower Derby Week ticketing revenue and higher pari-mutuel taxes that were partially offset by increased wagering and licensing/sponsorship revenue. Wagering Services and Solutions  Second Quarter(in millions) 2025  2024    Revenue$168.4 $159.9Adjusted EBITDA 48.0  46.2       Second quarter 2025 revenue increased $8.5 million primarily due to a $5.1 million increase from TwinSpires Horse Racing primarily due to higher Derby Week wagering and a $3.4 million increase from Exacta attributable to incremental HRMs in Virginia and New Hampshire. Second quarter 2025 Adjusted EBITDA increased $1.8 million due to a $3.4 million increase from Exacta attributable to incremental HRMs in Virginia and New Hampshire and a $0.8 million increase from our sports betting business, partially offset by a $2.4 million decrease from TwinSpires Horse Racing due to increased legal expenses and increased marketing related to Derby Week. Gaming  Second Quarter(in millions) 2025  2024    Revenue$266.3 $274.4Adjusted EBITDA 127.3  140.7       Second quarter 2025 revenue decreased $8.1 million due to a $5.2 million decrease from the cessation of HRM operations in Louisiana and a $2.9 million net decrease at our nine other wholly owned gaming properties. Second quarter 2025 Adjusted EBITDA decreased $13.4 million due to a $11.6 million decrease from our wholly owned gaming properties and a $1.8 million decrease from our equity investments. The decrease from our wholly owned gaming properties was due to a $7.0 million decrease at Terre Haute Casino Resort primarily from a higher effective state gaming tax rate in the current year as expected, a $1.4 million net decrease from the elimination of HRMs in Louisiana, and a $3.2 million net decrease at our eight other wholly owned gaming properties. The decrease from our equity investments was due to a $2.6 million decrease from Rivers Des Plaines, partially offset by a $0.8 million increase from Miami Valley Gaming. All Other  Second Quarter(in millions) 2025   2024     Revenue$2.3  $1.9 Adjusted EBITDA (20.9)  (21.3)         Second quarter 2025 revenue increased $0.4 million primarily due to intercompany revenue related to the captive insurance company. All captive revenue is eliminated in consolidation. Second quarter 2025 Adjusted EBITDA increased $0.4 million primarily due to the reduction of corporate legal-related fees in the current quarter, partially offset by increased all other corporate-related expenses. Share Repurchase Program The Company repurchased 2,565,964 shares of its common stock at a total cost of $250.4 million in the second quarter of 2025. We had approximately $184.2 million of repurchase authority remaining under the 2025 Stock Repurchase Program as of June 30, 2025.  On July 4, 2025, the United States enacted H.R. 1, a new federal tax and spending bill. Many of the tax provisions included in the bill are retroactive and will have a significant favorable impact on the Company’s current year cash tax expense, primarily due to the permanent reinstatements of 100% bonus depreciation rules and a 30% of EBITDA-based interest expense deduction limitation. As a result of this change, the Company will begin utilizing the deferred tax asset of $91.2 million related to interest expense previously subject to limitation. The expected reduction in cash paid taxes as a result of these new tax provisions will increase cash flow from operating activities. On July 14, 2025, the Company announced that it had entered into definitive agreements to acquire 90% of the outstanding equity interests of PPE Casino Resorts NH Holdings, LLC in Salem, New Hampshire ("Casino Salem"), for total consideration of $180.0 million in cash (the "Salem Transaction"), subject to certain working capital and other purchase price adjustments. Casino Salem is located at The Mall at Rockingham Park which is approximately 30 minutes from downtown Boston. Pursuant to the Salem Transaction, the Company will assume responsibility for the development of a charitable gaming, entertainment and dining destination. The Company will continue to operate Chasers Poker Room in Salem and is still evaluating the impact, if any, to the existing operations. On July 22, 2025, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a common stock repurchase program of up to $500.0 million ("July 2025 Stock Repurchase Program"). The July 2025 Stock Repurchase Program includes and is not in addition to any repurchase authority remaining under the prior authorization.  NET INCOME ATTRIBUTABLE TO CDI The Company's second quarter 2025 net income attributable to CDI was $216.9 million compared to $209.3 million in the prior year quarter. The following factors impacted the comparability of the Company's second quarter 2025 net income to the prior year quarter: a $1.8 million after-tax impairment charge in the current year quarter related to a write-off of obsolete HRMs in Virginia. This was partially offset by: a $0.4 million after-tax decrease in transaction, pre-opening, and other expenses. Excluding the items above, second quarter 2025 adjusted net income attributable to CDI increased $9.0 million primarily due to the following: an $11.4 million after-tax increase primarily driven by lower state tax expense and the results of our operations; anda $0.3 million after-tax increase in equity income from our unconsolidated affiliates. This was partially offset by: a $2.0 million after-tax increase in interest expense; anda $0.7 million after-tax increase due a portion of the Company's income from United Tote being recognized as income attributable to a noncontrolling interest.

Use of Non-GAAP Measures In addition to the results provided in accordance with GAAP, the Company also uses non-GAAP measures, including adjusted net income, adjusted diluted EPS, EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization), and Adjusted EBITDA. The Company uses non-GAAP measures as a key performance measure of the results of operations for purposes of evaluating performance internally. These measures facilitate comparison of operating performance between periods and help investors to better understand the operating results of the Company by excluding certain items that may not be indicative of the Company's core business or operating results. The Company believes the use of these measures enables management and investors to evaluate and compare, from period to period, the Company’s operating performance in a meaningful and consistent manner. The non-GAAP measures are a supplemental measure of our performance that is not required by, or presented in accordance with, GAAP, and should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income or diluted EPS (as determined in accordance with GAAP) as a measure of our operating results. We use Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate segment performance, develop strategy, and allocate resources. We utilize the Adjusted EBITDA metric to provide a more accurate measure of our core operating results and enable management and investors to evaluate and compare from period to period our operating performance in a meaningful and consistent manner. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to operating income as an indicator of performance, as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity, or as an alternative to any other measure provided in accordance with GAAP. Our calculation of Adjusted EBITDA may be different from the calculation used by other companies and, therefore, comparability may be limited. Adjusted net income and adjusted diluted EPS exclude discontinued operations net income or loss; net income or loss attributable to noncontrolling interest; transaction expense, which includes acquisition and disposition related charges, as well as legal, accounting, and other deal-related expense; pre-opening expense; and certain other gains, charges, recoveries, and expenses. Adjusted EBITDA includes our portion of EBITDA from our equity investments and the portion of EBITDA attributable to noncontrolling interest. Adjusted EBITDA excludes, as applicable in each period: Transaction expense, net which includes: Acquisition, disposition, and property sale related charges;Other transaction expense, including legal, accounting, and other deal-related expense; Stock-based compensation expense;Rivers Des Plaines' impact on our investments in unconsolidated affiliates from legal reserves and transaction costs;Asset impairments;Gain on property sales;Legal reserves;Pre-opening expense; andOther charges, recoveries, and expenses. For segment reporting, Adjusted EBITDA includes intercompany revenue and expense totals that are eliminated in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. See the Reconciliation of Comprehensive Income to Adjusted EBITDA included herewith for additional information.
