​

Las Vegas – May 8, 2025 – Full House Resorts, Inc. (Nasdaq: FLL) today announced results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2025.

​

On a consolidated basis, revenues in the first quarter of 2025 were $75.1 million, a 7.3% increase from $69.9 million in the prior-year period. These results reflect the continued ramp-up of operations at the Company’s two newest properties, American Place Casino and Chamonix Casino Hotel. Net loss for the first quarter of 2025 was $9.8 million, or $(0.27) per diluted common share, which includes $0.1 million of project development costs and a $0.2 million loss on the sale of certain remaining assets at Stockman’s Casino. In the prior-year period, net loss was $11.3 million, or $(0.33) per diluted common share, reflecting $1.7 million of preopening costs, primarily related to Chamonix in advance of its full opening. Adjusted EBITDA^(a) was $11.5 million in the first quarter of 2025, reflecting growth at American Place and operational improvements at Silver Slipper, offset by elevated costs at Chamonix as its operations continue to ramp. In the prior-year period, Adjusted EBITDA was $12.4 million.

​

“Our three largest properties – American Place, Silver Slipper, and Chamonix – all made meaningful strides during the first quarter,” said Daniel R. Lee, President and Chief Executive Officer of Full House Resorts. “At American Place, we are pleased with the strong continued ramp of our temporary facility. In March 2025, for example, we not only crossed $10 million of monthly gaming revenue for the first time, but we nearly reached $11 million. Our player database continues to expand at an impressive pace, recently surpassing 100,000 members.

​

“These milestones underscore American Place’s continuing momentum, as well as its strategic location in a highly attractive and underserved market. Chicago’s northern suburbs have long lacked a premium gaming and entertainment destination, and we believe the luxurious amenities of our planned permanent casino will fill that gap. We anticipate a significant uplift in performance when we transition from the temporary American Place facility to the permanent casino, similar to the results that have been reported in Rockford and other cities after temporary casinos transition into their permanent facilities.

​

“At Silver Slipper, a new leadership team has helped reinvigorate that property’s operations. Led by operational improvements, operating income improved by $0.6 million despite a $0.7 million decline in revenues. We recently refreshed a large portion of the Silver Slipper’s slot floor, which we believe will further benefit the property’s financial results in the second half of the year.

​

“We’ve also made numerous management changes in Colorado, where our Chamonix/Bronco Billy’s gaming complex continues to see strong growth in revenues and new player sign-ups. Revenues grew 33.9% year-over-year. Expenses also grew at a large percentage, as we incurred the costs of operating the entire facility, versus the partial operations of the year-ago period. We have increased our focus on cost efficiencies, while continuing to maintain growth, in order to drive profitability. As part of this focus, we welcomed Brandon Lenssen as Chamonix’s new general manager in mid-March. Despite his short tenure, Brandon and his team have already identified several million dollars of annual cost savings that will help Chamonix deliver stronger bottom-line results. Combined with new and enhanced marketing efforts, we expect positive results from our Colorado operations as we move into the seasonally-important spring and summer seasons.”

First Quarter Highlights and Subsequent Events

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of March 31, 2025, we had $30.7 million in cash and cash equivalents. Our debt consisted primarily of $450.0 million in outstanding senior secured notes due 2028, which is currently callable at 102.063% of par, and $30.0 million outstanding under our revolving credit facility. As of May 8, 2025, $25.0 million of our credit facility was drawn.

​

In March 2025, we extended the maturity date of our revolving credit facility from March 31, 2026 to January 1, 2027. Additionally, management continues to evaluate the most efficient means to finance the permanent American Place facility, which may include refinancing most of the Company’s currently outstanding debt.

(a) Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Our presentation of non-GAAP Measures may be different from the presentation used by other companies, and therefore, comparability may be limited. While excluded from certain non-GAAP Measures, depreciation and amortization expense, interest expense, income taxes and other items have been and will be incurred. Each of these items should also be considered in the overall evaluation of our results. Additionally, our non-GAAP Measures do not consider capital expenditures and other investing activities and should not be considered as a measure of our liquidity. We compensate for these limitations by providing the relevant disclosure of our depreciation and amortization, interest and income taxes, and other items both in our reconciliations to the historical GAAP financial measures and in our consolidated financial statements, all of which should be considered when evaluating our performance.

​

Our non-GAAP Measures are to be used in addition to, and in conjunction with, results presented in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP Measures should not be considered as an alternative to net income, operating income, or any other operating performance measure prescribed by GAAP, nor should these measures be relied upon to the exclusion of GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP Measures reflect additional ways of viewing our operations that we believe, when viewed with our GAAP results and the reconciliations to the corresponding historical GAAP financial measures, provide a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business than could be obtained absent this disclosure. Management strongly encourages investors to review our financial information in its entirety and not to rely on a single financial measure.

​

Adjusted Segment EBITDA. We utilize Adjusted Segment EBITDA as the measure of segment profitability in assessing performance and allocating resources at the reportable segment level. Adjusted Segment EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest and other non-operating income (expense), taxes, depreciation and amortization, preopening expenses, impairment charges, asset write-offs, recoveries, gain (loss) from asset sales and disposals, project development and acquisition costs, non-cash share-based compensation expense, and corporate-related costs and expenses that are not allocated to each segment.

​

Adjusted Property EBITDA. Adjusted Property EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest and other non-operating income (expense), taxes, depreciation and amortization, preopening expenses, impairment charges, asset write-offs, recoveries, gain (loss) from asset sales and disposals, project development and acquisition costs, non-cash share-based compensation expense, and corporate-related costs and expenses that are not allocated to each property.

​

Adjusted EBITDA. We also utilize Adjusted EBITDA, which is defined as Adjusted Segment EBITDA, net of corporate-related costs and expenses. Although Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of performance or liquidity calculated in accordance with GAAP, we believe this non-GAAP financial measure provides meaningful supplemental information regarding our performance and liquidity. We utilize this metric or measure internally to focus management on year-over-year changes in core operating performance, which we consider our ordinary, ongoing and customary operations, and which we believe is useful information to investors. Accordingly, management excludes certain items when analyzing core operating performance, such as the items mentioned above, that management believes are not reflective of ordinary, ongoing and customary operations.
