CEO Comments
Edward Pitoniak, Chief Executive Officer of VICI Properties, said, “VICI’s third quarter financial performance reflects our sustained, sustainable commitment to accretive growth and capital deployment through acquisitions and strategic financing activity, exemplified by approximately 20% revenue growth and nearly 11% growth in AFFO per share year-over-year. During the quarter, in addition to closing Rocky Gap and announcing the expansion of our Canyon Ranch Growth Partnership, we expanded our international presence through closing the acquisition of four casino properties in Alberta, Canada with our existing tenant and partner, Century Casinos.
"Subsequent to quarter end, we entered into a new experiential sector with Bowlero, the market leader in reinvigorating the programming and economics of the bowling experience through their innovative consolidation and growth model. In this partnership, we acquired 38 Bowlero properties and concurrently bolstered our embedded growth pipeline by obtaining a right of first offer to acquire current or future Bowlero real estate in the coming years through sale-leaseback transactions. We also expanded our presence in 11 new states and added another publicly traded tenant to our roster. VICI's differentiation stems from our commitment to partnering with operators who define their respective experiential categories, as Bowlero has done with the bowling experience.”

Third Quarter 2023 Acquisitions and Portfolio Activity
Acquisitions and Investments
On July 25, 2023, the Company completed the previously announced transaction to acquire the leasehold interest in the land and buildings associated with Rocky Gap Casino Resort ("Rocky Gap") in Flintstone, Maryland for $203.9 million in cash, with Century Casinos, Inc. (NASDAQ: CNTY) ("Century") acquiring the operating assets of Rocky Gap for $56.1 million. Simultaneous with the close of the acquisition, Rocky Gap was added to the existing triple-net master lease agreement between the Company and Century (the "Century Master Lease") and annual rent increased by $15.5 million, representing an acquisition capitalization rate of 7.6%. The transaction was funded through a combination of cash on hand and proceeds from the partial settlement of forward equity sale agreements.
On July 26, 2023, the Company committed to an up to $150.0 million preferred equity investment into the controlling entity of Canyon Ranch, a leading provider of holistic, integrative health and wellness guest experiences ("Canyon Ranch"). The preferred equity has a term of 10 years and may be redeemed by Canyon Ranch at any time, subject to a redemption premium in the first three years. In connection with this investment, the Company entered into (i) a call right agreement whereby the Company will have the option to call the real estate assets of each of the Canyon Ranch facility in Tucson, Arizona ("Canyon Ranch Tucson") and the Canyon Ranch facility in Lenox, Massachusetts ("Canyon Ranch Lenox") subject to certain conditions, and (ii) a right of first financing agreement pursuant to which the Company will have the first right, but not the obligation, to serve as the real estate capital financing partner for Canyon Ranch with respect to the acquisition, build-out and/or redevelopment of future wellness resorts. If the call right(s) are exercised, Canyon Ranch would continue to operate the applicable wellness resort(s) subject to a long-term triple net master lease with the Company.
On August 22, 2023, the Company provided $140.1 million in mortgage financing to Canyon Ranch secured primarily by Canyon Ranch Tucson and Canyon Ranch Lenox. The proceeds from the mortgage financing were used to refinance Canyon Ranch’s existing CMBS debt secured by these two assets. The mortgage financing has an initial term of two years with three one-year extensions, exercisable at Canyon Ranch’s option, subject to satisfying certain customary extension conditions.
On September 6, 2023, the Company completed the previously announced transaction to acquire four real estate assets from Century in Alberta, Canada: Century Casino Hotel Edmonton, Century Casino St. Albert and Century Mile Racetrack and Casino, each in Edmonton, Alberta and Century Downs Racetrack and Casino in Calgary, Alberta, (collectively the “Century Canadian Portfolio”) for an aggregate purchase price of approximately C$221.7 million (approximately US$162.4 million based on the exchange rate at the time of closing). Simultaneous with the acquisition, the Century Canadian Portfolio was added to the Century Master Lease and annual rent increased by C$17.3 million (approximately US$12.7 million based on the exchange rate at the time of closing) representing an implied acquisition capitalization rate of 7.8%. The transaction was funded through a combination of proceeds from the partial settlement of forward equity sale agreements and a draw under the Company’s existing revolving credit facility (the "Revolving Credit Facility") in Canadian dollars.
Subsequent to quarter end, on October 19, 2023, the Company announced that it had acquired the real estate assets of 38 bowling entertainment centers from Bowlero Corp. (NYSE: BOWL) ("Bowlero") in a sale-leaseback transaction for an aggregate purchase price of $432.9 million. Simultaneous with the transaction, the Company entered into a triple-net master lease agreement with Bowlero. The lease has an initial total annual rent of $31.6 million, representing an acquisition capitalization rate of 7.3%, and an initial term of 25 years with six 5-year tenant renewal options. In connection with the transaction, the Company will have the right of first offer for a term of eight years to acquire the real estate assets of any current or future Bowlero properties in the event that Bowlero elects to enter into a sale-leaseback transaction. The transaction was funded through a combination of equity interests in a newly formed VICI subsidiary, cash on hand, and the partial settlement of forward equity sale agreements.
Third Quarter 2023 Capital Markets Activity
On August 31, 2023, the Company physically settled 3,400,000 shares under the January 2023 forward sale agreements in exchange for net proceeds of approximately $108.4 million. Subsequent to quarter-end, on October 17, 2023, the Company physically settled all the remaining 17,702,500 shares of common stock under the January 2023 forward sale agreements in exchange for net proceeds of approximately $560.3 million.
During the three months ended September 30, 2023, the Company sold a total of 7,843,352 shares under its ATM program for a gross value of $242.3 million, all of which were sold subject to a forward sale agreement (the "Q3 2023 ATM Forward Sale Agreement"). The Company did not receive any proceeds from the sale of shares at the time it entered into the Q3 2023 ATM Forward Sale Agreement.
During the three months ended September 30, 2023, the Company entered into forward-starting interest rate swap agreements with an aggregate notional amount of $150.0 million, intended to reduce the variability in future cash flows for a forecasted issuance of long-term debt over a maximum period ended December 2024.

Dividends
On September 7, 2023, the Company declared a regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.415 per share, representing a 6.4% year-over-year increase.

2023 Guidance
The Company is increasing AFFO guidance for the full year 2023. In determining AFFO, the Company adjusts for certain items that are otherwise included in determining net income attributable to common stockholders, the most comparable generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) financial measure. In reliance on the exception provided by applicable rules, the Company does not provide guidance for GAAP net income, the most comparable GAAP financial measure, or a reconciliation of 2023 AFFO to GAAP net income because we are unable to predict with reasonable certainty the amount of the change in non-cash allowance for credit losses under ASU No. 2016-13 - Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326) (“ASC 326”) for a future period. The non-cash change in allowance for credit losses under ASC 326 with respect to a future period is dependent upon future events that are entirely outside of the Company’s control and may not be reliably predicted, including its tenants’ respective financial performance, fluctuations in the trading price of their common stock, credit ratings and outlook (each to the extent applicable), as well as broader macroeconomic performance. Based on past results and, as disclosed in our historical financial results, the impact of these adjustments could be material, individually or in the aggregate, to the Company’s reported GAAP results. For more information, see “Non-GAAP Financial Measures.”
The Company estimates AFFO for the year ending December 31, 2023 will be between $2,170 million and $2,180 million, or between $2.14 and $2.15 per diluted share. Guidance does not include the impact on operating results from any pending or possible future acquisitions or dispositions, capital markets activity, or other non-recurring transactions.

The above per share estimates reflect the dilutive effect of the 8,170,658 shares pending under the Q2 and Q3 2023 ATM Forward Sale Agreements as calculated under the treasury stock method. VICI OP units held by a third party are reflected as non-controlling interests and the income allocable to them is deducted from net income to arrive at net income attributable to common stockholders and AFFO; accordingly, guidance represents AFFO per share attributable to common stockholders based solely on outstanding shares of VICI common stock.
The estimates set forth above reflect management’s view of current and future market conditions, including assumptions with respect to the earnings impact of the events referenced in this release. The estimates set forth above may be subject to fluctuations as a result of several factors and there can be no assurance that the Company’s actual results will not differ materially from the estimates set forth above.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release presents Funds From Operations (“FFO”), FFO per share, Adjusted Funds From Operations (“AFFO”), AFFO per share and Adjusted EBITDA, which are not required by, or presented in accordance with, generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”). These are non-GAAP financial measures and should not be construed as alternatives to net income or as an indicator of operating performance (as determined in accordance with GAAP). We believe FFO, FFO per share, AFFO, AFFO per share and Adjusted EBITDA provide a meaningful perspective of the underlying operating performance of our business.
FFO is a non-GAAP financial measure that is considered a supplemental measure for the real estate industry and a supplement to GAAP measures. Consistent with the definition used by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (NAREIT), we define FFO as net income (or loss) attributable to common stockholders (computed in accordance with GAAP) excluding (i) gains (or losses) from sales of certain real estate assets, (ii) depreciation and amortization related to real estate, (iii) gains and losses from change in control, (iv) impairment write-downs of certain real estate assets and investments in entities when the impairment is directly attributable to decreases in the value of depreciable real estate held by the entity and (v) our proportionate share of such adjustments from our investment in unconsolidated affiliate.
AFFO is a non-GAAP financial measure that we use as a supplemental operating measure to evaluate our performance. We calculate our AFFO by adding or subtracting from FFO non-cash leasing and financing adjustments, non-cash change in allowance for credit losses, non-cash stock-based compensation expense, transaction costs incurred in connection with the acquisition of real estate investments, amortization of debt issuance costs and original issue discount, other non-cash interest expense, non-real estate depreciation (which is comprised of the depreciation related to our golf course operations), capital expenditures (which are comprised of additions to property, plant and equipment related to our golf course operations), impairment charges related to non-depreciable real estate, gains (or losses) on debt extinguishment and interest rate swap settlements, other gains (losses), other non-recurring non-cash transactions, our proportionate share of non-cash adjustments from our investment in unconsolidated affiliate (including the amortization of any basis differences) with respect to certain of the foregoing and non-cash adjustments attributable to non-controlling interest with respect to certain of the foregoing.
We calculate Adjusted EBITDA by adding or subtracting from AFFO contractual interest expense (including the impact of the forward-starting interest rate swaps and treasury locks) and interest income (collectively, interest expense, net), income tax expense and our proportionate share of such adjustments from our investment in unconsolidated affiliate.
These non-GAAP financial measures: (i) do not represent cash flow from operations as defined by GAAP; (ii) should not be considered as an alternative to net income as a measure of operating performance or to cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities; and (iii) are not alternatives to cash flow as a measure of liquidity. In addition, these measures should not be viewed as measures of liquidity, nor do they measure our ability to fund all of our cash needs, including our ability to make cash distributions to our stockholders, to fund capital improvements, or to make interest payments on our indebtedness. Investors are also cautioned that FFO, FFO per share, AFFO, AFFO per share and Adjusted EBITDA, as presented, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other real estate companies, including REITs, due to the fact that not all real estate companies use the same definitions. Our presentation of these measures does not replace the presentation of our financial results in accordance with GAAP.
Reconciliations of net income to FFO, FFO per share, AFFO, AFFO per share and Adjusted EBITDA are included in this release.
