ABD – Caesars, Las Vegas kumarhanesini 516.3 milyon dolara satıyor
By Phil - 23 Eylül 2019
Caesars Entertainment is selling the Rio All-Suite Hotel & Casino to a company controlled by a principal of Imperial Companies for $516.3m, which implies a strong sales price to EBITDA multiple.
Under the terms of the agreement, Caesars will continue to operate the property pursuant to a lease for a minimum of two years and pay annualized rent of $45m. The Buyer has the option to pay Caesars $7 million to extend the lease under similar terms for a third year. At the end of the lease term and at the request of the Buyer, Caesars may continue to manage Rio or may provide transition services to the Buyer.
“This deal allows Caesars Entertainment to focus our resources on strengthening our attractive portfolio of recently renovated Strip properties and is expected to result in incremental EBITDA at those properties,” said Tony Rodio, CEO of Caesars Entertainment. “The retention of the World Series of Poker and retention of Caesars Rewards customers are all factors that make this a valuable transaction for Caesars.”
Anlaşma, Rio'ya özgü konuk verilerinin ortak mülkiyetine izin veriyor ve Caesars'ın pazarlama faaliyetlerine hiçbir kısıtlama getirmiyor. Rio, kiralama süresi boyunca Caesars Rewards ağının bir parçası olmaya devam edecek ve işlemin konuk deneyiminde herhangi bir değişiklikle sonuçlanması beklenmiyor. World Series of Poker, 2020'de Rio'da düzenlenecek ve bundan sonra barındırma hakları Caesars Entertainment'a ait olacak.
