We conduct our business through three reportable segments: Live and Historical Racing, Wagering Services and Solutions, and Gaming. The Wagering Services and Solutions segment was previously known as the TwinSpires segment. We aggregate our other businesses as well as certain corporate operations in All Other. We report net revenue and operating expense associated with these reportable segments in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income.

In October 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2023-06, Disclosure Improvements: Codification Amendments in Response to the Securities and Exchange Commission’s ("SEC") Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative, to amend certain disclosure and presentation requirements for a variety of topics within FASB's Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC"). These amendments align the requirements in the ASC regarding the removal of certain disclosure requirements set out in Regulation S-X and Regulation S-K, announced by the SEC. The effective date for each amended topic in the ASC is either the date on which the SEC’s removal of the related disclosure requirement from Regulation S-X or Regulation S-K becomes effective, or on June 30, 2027, if the SEC has not removed the requirements by that date. Early adoption is prohibited. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In November 2024, FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. Under ASU 2024-03, a public entity would be required to disclose information about purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, intangible asset amortization, and depletion for each income statement line item that contains those expenses. This standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this standard on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-05, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets (Topic 326). The update permits entities to elect a practical expedient for estimating expected credit losses on current trade receivables and current contract assets by assuming that conditions existing at the balance sheet date will remain unchanged over the life of those assets. The updated standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2025, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2026, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this standard on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software, which modernizes the accounting for internal-use software. The update removes all references to software development stages and requires capitalization of software costs when management has committed to the software project and it is probable the software will be completed and perform its intended use. This standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim reporting

periods within those annual reporting periods. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this standard on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-11, Interim Reporting (Topic 270): Narrow-Scope Improvements, which clarifies certain interim reporting guidance. The update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this standard on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

On August 27, 2025, the Company completed its acquisition of 90% of the outstanding equity interests of Casino Salem (the "Salem Transaction") for a base purchase price of $180 million, and the transaction was treated as an asset acquisition because substantially all the value of the gross assets acquired was concentrated in the gaming rights. In conjunction with the acquisition, the Company recorded a $197 million indefinite-lived gaming rights intangible, which represented the fair value of the gaming rights at the date of acquisition.

The fair value of the gaming rights acquired in the transaction was determined using the Greenfield Method, which is an income approach methodology that calculates the present value of the gaming rights intangible asset based on a projected cash flow stream. This method assumes that the gaming rights intangible asset provides the opportunity to develop a gaming facility in a specified region, and that the present value of the projected cash flows is a result of the realization of advantages contained in these rights. Under this methodology, the acquirer is expected to absorb all start-up costs, as well as incur all expenses pertaining to the acquisition and/or the creation of all tangible and intangible assets. The estimated future revenue, future operating expenses, start-up costs, and discount rate were the primary inputs in the valuation. The gaming rights intangible asset was assigned an indefinite useful life based on the Company's expected use of the asset and determination that no legal, regulatory, contractual, competitive, economic, or other factors limit the useful life of the gaming rights.

Goodwill was $900 million as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

Other intangible assets are comprised of the following:

The Company is continuing to monitor the current economic conditions and the impacts on the results of operations of Presque Isle Downs and Casino ("Presque Isle") due to historical impairments recorded in prior periods related to the gaming rights and trademark. Future economic conditions could have a negative impact on the estimates and assumptions utilized in our asset impairment assessments. These potential impacts could increase the risk of a future impairment of assets at Presque Isle.

The Company’s effective income tax rate of 26.7% for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was higher than the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21.0% primarily resulting from the impact of state income taxes and non-deductible expenses.

The Company’s effective income tax rate of 19.4% for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was lower than the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21.0% primarily resulting from a $6 million benefit from the remeasurement of deferred income tax liabilities, as a result of certain entity classification elections that were made in the first quarter of 2025 that decreased income attributable to states with higher tax rates compared to prior year, partially offset by the impact of state income taxes and non-deductible expenses.

On July 22, 2025, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a common stock repurchase program of up to $500 million (the "July 2025 Stock Repurchase Program"). The July 2025 Stock Repurchase Program includes and is not in addition to the $169 million previously remaining under the March 2025 Stock Repurchase Program. Share repurchases may be made at management’s discretion from time to time in the open market (either with or without a 10b5-1 plan) or through privately negotiated transactions. The repurchase program has no time limit and may be suspended or discontinued at any time. We had approximately $430 million of repurchase authority remaining under the July 2025 Stock Repurchase Program at March 31, 2026, based on trade date.

On March 12, 2025, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a new common stock repurchase program of up to $500 million (the "March 2025 Stock Repurchase Program"). The March 2025 Stock Repurchase Program included and was not in addition to any unspent amount remaining under the prior authorizations from the 2021 Stock Repurchase Program. As described above, the March 2025 Stock Repurchase Program has since been replaced by the July 2025 Stock Repurchase Program.

During the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, we repurchased the following shares under our stock repurchase programs:

On February 18, 2025, our Board of Directors approved the replacement of the Churchill Downs Incorporated 2016 Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan (the "2016 Plan") with a new plan, the Churchill Downs Incorporated 2025 Omnibus Stock and Incentive Plan (the "2025 Plan"). The 2025 Plan was approved by shareholders at the Company's 2025 Annual Meeting of Shareholders held on April 22, 2025. We have stock-based employee compensation plans with awards outstanding under the 2016 Plan, the 2025 Plan and the Executive Long-Term Incentive Compensation Plan, which was adopted pursuant to the 2016 Plan. No further awards will be granted under the 2016 Plan. Our total stock-based compensation expense, which includes expenses related to restricted stock awards ("RSAs"), restricted stock unit awards ("RSUs"), performance share unit awards ("PSUs"), and stock options associated with our employee stock purchase plan was $5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and $4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. At March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company had $11 million and $21 million, respectively, recorded as liability-classified awards, which are included in accrued expense and other liabilities in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company awarded RSUs to employees, as well as RSUs and PSUs to certain named executive officers ("NEOs"). The vesting criteria for the PSU awards granted in 2026 were based on a three-year service period with two performance conditions and a market condition related to relative total shareholder return ("TSR") consistent with prior year grants. The total compensation cost we will recognize under the PSUs is determined using the Monte Carlo valuation methodology, which factors in the value of the TSR market condition when determining the grant date fair value of the PSU. Compensation cost for each PSU is recognized during the performance and service period based on the probable achievement of the two performance criteria. The PSUs can be converted into shares of our common stock at the time the PSU award value is finalized.

A summary of the RSUs and PSUs granted during 2026 is presented below (units in thousands):

The following table presents our total debt outstanding:

At March 31, 2026, the Company’s senior secured credit facility (as amended from time to time, the "Credit Agreement") consisted of a $1.2 billion revolving credit facility (the "Revolver"), $285 million senior secured term loan B-1 (the "Term Loan B-1"), $1.1 billion senior secured term loan A (the "Term Loan A"), and $100 million swing line commitment. On July 3, 2024, the Company closed an amendment of the Credit Agreement to (i) extend the maturity date of the Revolver and Term Loan A from 2027 to 2029 subject to an earlier "springing maturity" if certain indebtedness in respect of outstanding notes or other material indebtedness having a maturity date prior to July 3, 2029, is not refinanced or extended to a date after July 3, 2029, at least 91 days prior to such other debt’s stated maturity date, and (ii) amend certain other provisions of the Credit Agreement.

On February 14, 2025, the Company announced that it closed the seventh amendment of the Credit Agreement. The seventh amendment to the Credit Agreement (i) reduced the interest rate margin applicable to the Term Loan B-1 by 0.25% from Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") plus 200 basis points to SOFR plus 175 basis points, (ii) eliminated the 0.10% credit spread adjustment previously applicable to the Term Loan B-1, and (iii) made certain other amendments to the Credit Agreement.

The Term Loan B-1 requires quarterly payments of 0.25% of the original $300 million balance and may be subject to additional mandatory prepayment from excess cash flow on an annual basis per the provisions of the Credit Agreement.

The Company is required to pay a commitment fee on the unused portion of the Revolver, as determined by a pricing grid based on the consolidated total net secured leverage ratio of the Company. For the period ended March 31, 2026, the Company's commitment fee rate was 0.25%.

As of March 31, 2026, our Live and Historical Racing segment had remaining performance obligations on contracts with a duration greater than one year relating to television rights, sponsorships, personal seat licenses, and admissions, with an aggregate transaction price of $270 million. The revenue we expect to recognize on these remaining performance obligations is $80 million for the remainder of 2026, $62 million in 2027, $38 million in 2028, and the remainder thereafter.

As of March 31, 2026, our remaining performance obligations on contracts with a duration greater than one year in segments other than Live and Historical Racing were not material.

As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, contract assets were not material.

As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, contract liabilities were $185 million and $80 million, respectively, which are included in current deferred revenue, non-current deferred revenue, and accrued expense in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Contract liabilities primarily relate to the Live and Historical Racing segment and the increase was primarily due to deferred revenue related to the 152nd Kentucky Derby. We recognized $6 million of revenue during the three months ended March 31, 2026, which was included in the contract liabilities balance at December 31, 2025. We recognized $6 million of revenue during the three months ended March 31, 2025, which was included in the contract liabilities balance at December 31, 2024.

The Company has included its disaggregated revenue disclosures as follows: 

•For the Live and Historical Racing segment, revenue is disaggregated between Churchill Downs Racetrack and historical racing properties given that Churchill Downs Racetrack revenue primarily revolves around live racing events, while our other Live and Historical Racing properties' revenues primarily revolve around historical racing. This segment is also disaggregated by location given the geographic economic factors that affect the revenue of service offerings. Within the Live and Historical Racing segment, revenue is further disaggregated between live and simulcast racing, historical racing, racing event-related services, gaming, and other services.

•    For the Wagering Services and Solutions segment, revenue is disaggregated between live and simulcast racing, gaming, and other services.

•    For the Gaming segment, revenue is disaggregated by location given the geographic economic factors that affect the revenue of Gaming service offerings. Within the Gaming segment, revenue is further disaggregated between live and simulcast racing, historical racing, racing event-related services, gaming, and other services.

We believe that these disclosures depict how the amount, nature, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows are affected by economic factors. The tables below present net revenue from external customers and intercompany revenue from each of our segments:

(a)     Food and beverage, hotel, and other services furnished to customers for free as an inducement to wager or through the redemption of our customers' loyalty points are recorded at the estimated standalone selling prices in other revenue with a corresponding offset recorded as a reduction in historical racing pari-mutuel revenue for HRMs or gaming revenue for our casino properties. These amounts were $16 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and $14 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025.

Accounts receivable is comprised of the following:

Accrued expenses and other current liabilities consisted of the following:

(in millions)			March 31, 2026						December 31, 2025
Account wagering deposits liability			$	61					$	68

In April 2024, the Company closed on the sale of 49% of United Tote, a wholly owned subsidiary of CDI, to NYRA. NYRA's interest includes certain embedded redemption features, such as a put right, that are not exclusively within the Company’s control. NYRA's interest is treated as redeemable noncontrolling interest and is presented outside of permanent equity on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

In August 2025, the Company closed on the purchase of 90% of Casino Salem, a joint venture with SL Salem, LLC and JPF Casino Enterprises, LLC (collectively, the "Casino Salem Minority Interest Holders"). The Casino Salem Minority Interest Holders' interests include certain embedded redemption features, such as put rights, that are not exclusively within the Company’s control. The Casino Salem Minority Interest Holders' interests are treated as redeemable noncontrolling interest and are not included in the permanent equity on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The redeemable noncontrolling interest is initially accounted for at fair value and subsequently adjusted to the greater of the redemption value or the carrying value. Redeemable noncontrolling interest adjustments of carrying value to redemption value are reflected in retained earnings and are also included as an adjustment to income available to the Company’s shareholders in the calculation of earnings per share (See Note 15, Net Income Per Common Share Computations). The table below depicts changes in the Company’s redeemable noncontrolling interest balance.

Investments in and advances to unconsolidated affiliates as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 primarily consisted of interests in Rivers Casino Des Plaines ("Rivers Des Plaines") and Miami Valley Gaming and Racing ("MVG").

The ownership of Rivers Des Plaines is comprised of the following: (1) the Company owns 61.3%, (2) High Plaines Gaming, LLC ("High Plaines"), an affiliate of Rush Street Gaming, LLC, owns 36.0%, and (3) Casino Investors, LLC owns 2.7%. Both the Company and High Plaines have participating rights over Rivers Des Plaines, and both must consent to certain operating, investing and financing decisions. As a result, we account for Rivers Des Plaines using the equity method. As of March 31, 2026, the net aggregate basis difference between the Company’s investment in Rivers Des Plaines and the amounts of the underlying equity in net assets was $833 million.

Our investment in Rivers Des Plaines was $573 million as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025. The Company received distributions from Rivers Des Plaines of $25 million and $21 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

The Company owns a 50% interest in MVG and Delaware North Companies Gaming & Entertainment Inc. ("DNC") owns the remaining 50% interest in MVG. Since both the Company and DNC have participating rights over MVG, and both must consent to certain operating, investing, and financing decisions, we account for MVG using the equity method.

Our investment in MVG was $112 million as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025. The Company received distributions from MVG of $11 million and $10 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

Summarized below are the financial results for our unconsolidated affiliates.

We endeavor to utilize the best available information in measuring fair value. Financial assets and liabilities are classified based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The following methods and assumptions are used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate.

Our restricted cash accounts held in money market and interest-bearing accounts qualify for Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy, which includes unadjusted quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets.

The fair value of the Company’s 2031 Senior Notes, 2030 Senior Notes, 2028 Senior Notes, and 2027 Senior Notes are estimated based on unadjusted quoted prices for identical or similar liabilities in markets that are not active and as such are Level 2 measurements. The fair values of the Company's Term Loan B-1, Term Loan A, and Revolver under the Credit Agreement approximate the gross carrying value of the variable rate debt and as such are Level 2 measurements.

The carrying amounts and estimated fair values by input level of the Company's financial instruments are as follows:

			March 31, 2026
(in millions)			Carrying Amount						Fair Value						Level 1						Level 2						Level 3
Financial assets:

We are involved in litigation arising in the ordinary course of conducting business. We carry insurance for workers' compensation claims from our employees and general liability for claims from independent contractors, customers, and guests. We are self-insured up to an aggregate stop loss for our general liability and workers' compensation coverages.

We review all litigation on an ongoing basis when making accrual and disclosure decisions. For certain legal proceedings, we cannot reasonably estimate losses or a range of loss, if any, particularly for proceedings that are in the early stages of development or where the plaintiffs seek indeterminate damages. Various factors, including but not limited to, the outcome of potentially lengthy discovery and the resolution of important factual questions, may need to be determined before probability can be established or before a loss or range of loss can be reasonably estimated. In accordance with current accounting standards for loss contingencies and based upon information currently known to us, we establish reserves for litigation when it is probable that a loss associated with a claim or proceeding has been incurred and the amount of the loss or range of loss can be reasonably estimated. When no amount within the range of loss is a better estimate than any other amount, we accrue the minimum amount of the estimable loss. To the extent that such litigation against us may have an exposure to a loss in excess of the amount we have accrued, we believe that such excess would not be material to our consolidated financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. Legal fees are expensed as incurred.

If the loss contingency in question is not both probable and reasonably estimable, we do not establish an accrual and the matter will continue to be monitored for any developments that would make the loss contingency both probable and reasonably estimable. In the event that a legal proceeding results in a substantial judgment against us, or settlement by us, there can be no assurance that any resulting liability or financial commitment would not have a material adverse impact on our business.

We manage our operations through three reportable segments: Live and Historical Racing, Wagering Services and Solutions, and Gaming. Our operating segments reflect the internal management reporting used by our chief operating decision maker, our Chief Executive Officer, to evaluate results of operations and to assess performance and allocate resources.

Eliminations include the elimination of intersegment transactions. We utilize non-GAAP measures, including EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) and Adjusted EBITDA. Our chief operating decision maker utilizes Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate segment performance, develop strategy, and allocate resources. Adjusted EBITDA includes the following adjustments, as applicable in each period:

Adjusted EBITDA includes our portion of EBITDA from our equity investments and the portion of EBITDA attributable to a noncontrolling interest.

•Transaction expense, net which includes:

–Acquisition, disposition, and property sale related charges;

•Stock-based compensation expense;

•Rivers Des Plaines' impact on our investments in unconsolidated affiliates from legal reserves and transaction costs;

•Asset impairments, net;

•Gain on property sales;

•Legal reserves;

•Pre-opening expense; and

•Other charges, recoveries and expenses

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. For segment reporting, Adjusted EBITDA includes intercompany revenue and expense totals that are eliminated in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income.

The tables below present net revenue from external customers, Adjusted EBITDA by segment and reconciles comprehensive income to Adjusted EBITDA:

Net revenue by segment is comprised of the following:
