CAESARS ENTERTAINMENT CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
In these footnotes, the words Company, Caesars Entertainment, we, our, and us refer to Caesars Entertainment Corporation, a Delaware corporation, and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, unless otherwise stated or the context requires otherwise.
Note 1Organization and Basis of Presentation
Organization
As of March 31, 2012, we owned, operated, or managed, through various subsidiaries, 52 casinos in 12 U.S. states and seven countries. The majority of these casinos operate in the United States and England, primarily under the Caesars, Harrahs, and Horseshoe brand names in the United States (the U.S.). Our casino entertainment facilities include 33 land-based casinos, 12 riverboat or dockside casinos, three managed casinos on Indian lands in the U.S., one managed casino in Canada, one casino combined with a greyhound racetrack, one casino combined with a thoroughbred racetrack, and one casino combined with a harness racetrack. Our 33 land-based casinos include one in Uruguay, nine in England, one in Scotland, two in Egypt, and one in South Africa. We view each casino property as an operating segment and aggregate all such casino properties into one reportable segment.
On January 28, 2008, Caesars Entertainment was acquired by affiliates of Apollo Global Management, LLC (Apollo) and affiliates of TPG Capital, LP (together with such affiliates, TPG and, together with Apollo, the Sponsors) in an all-cash transaction (the Acquisition). As a result of the Acquisition and through February 7, 2012, our stock was not publicly traded.
Effective February 8, 2012, as the result of the Companys initial public offering, our common stock trades on the NASDAQ Global Select Market (NASDAQ) under the symbol CZR. In connection with the public offering, the Company effected a 1.742-for-one split of its common stock. All applicable share and per-share data presented herein have been retroactively adjusted to give effect to this stock split. See Note 7, Stockholders Equity, Non-controlling Interests, and Loss Per Share, for further information.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared under the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) applicable for interim periods and, therefore, do not include all information and notes necessary for complete financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP). The results for the interim periods reflect all adjustments (consisting primarily of normal recurring adjustments) that management considers necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, operating results, and cash flows.
The results of operations for our interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that may be achieved for the entire 2012 fiscal year. The financial information as of December 31, 2011 is derived from our audited consolidated financial statements and notes for the year ended December 31, 2011 included in our 2011 Annual Report on Form 10-K (the 2011 10-K). The information included in this Quarterly Report of Form 10-Q (the 10-Q) should be read in conjunction with the footnotes and managements discussion and analysis of the consolidated financial statements in the 2011 10-K. We have recast certain amounts for prior periods to conform to our 2012 presentation.
Note 2Development and Acquisition Activity
In January 2012, we received notice that the minority owners of Chester Downs and Marina, LLC (Chester Downs) elected to exercise their put rights thereby requiring us to purchase from the minority owners 90% of their interest in Chester Downs for consideration of $9.6 million. We consummated this purchase on February 14, 2012. As a result, we now have a 99.5% ownership interest in this property.

Our current maturities of debt include required interim principal payments on certain Term Loans, the special improvement district bonds, capitalized lease obligations, and CMBS mortgage loans and/or related mezzanine loans (CMBS Loans) under agreement to be repurchased.
Credit Agreement
In connection with the Acquisition, Caesars Entertainment Operating Company, Inc. (CEOC) entered into the senior secured credit facilities (the Credit Facilities). This financing is neither secured nor guaranteed by Caesars Entertainments other direct, wholly-owned subsidiaries, including the subsidiaries that own properties that are security for the CMBS Financing, as defined in our 2011 10-K.
In May 2011, CEOC amended its Credit Facilities to, among other things: (i) allow CEOC to buy back loans from individual lenders at negotiated prices at any time, which may be less than par, (ii) allow CEOC to extend the maturity of term loans or revolving commitments, as applicable, and for CEOC to otherwise modify the terms of loans or revolving commitments in connection with such an extension, and (iii) modify certain other provisions of the credit facilities. CEOC also extended its Credit Facilities by (i) converting $799.4 million of B-1, B-2 and B-3 term loans held by consenting lenders to B-5 term loans with an extended maturity date of January 28, 2018 and a higher interest rate with respect to such extended term loans (the Extended Term Loans) and (ii) converting $423.3 million of revolver commitments held by consenting lenders into Extended Term Loans.
In March 2012, CEOC amended its Credit Facilities to, among other things, (i) extend the maturity of $2,731.4 million of B-1, B-2 and B-3 term loans held by consenting lenders from January 28, 2015 to January 28, 2018 and increase the interest rate with respect to such extended term loans (the Term B-6 Loans); (ii) convert $82.3 million of original maturity revolver commitments held by consenting lenders to Term B-6 Loans and promptly following such conversion, repay $1,095.6 million of B-1, B-2, B-3 and B-6 term loans; (iii) extend the maturity of $25.0 million original maturity revolver commitments from January 28, 2014 to January 28, 2017 and increase the interest rate and the undrawn commitment fee with respect to such extended revolver commitments and terminate $6.3 million of original maturity revolver commitments; and (iv) modify certain other provisions of the Credit Facilities. In addition to the foregoing, CEOC may elect to extend and/or convert additional term loans and/or revolver commitments from time to time.
As of March 31, 2012, our Credit Facilities provide for senior secured financing of up to $7,304.2 million, consisting of (i) senior secured term loan facilities in an aggregate principal amount of $6,186.0 million comprised of $2,111.7 million maturing on January 28, 2015, $977.5 million maturing on October 31, 2016, and $3,096.8 million maturing on January 28, 2018 and (ii) a senior secured revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of up to $1,118.2 million, with $1,093.2 million maturing January 28, 2014 and $25.0 million maturing on January 28, 2017, including both a letter of credit sub-facility and a swingline loan sub-facility. The term loans under the Credit Facilities require scheduled quarterly payments of $3.8 million, with the balance due at maturity. As of March 31, 2012, $104.7 million of the revolving credit facility is committed to outstanding letters of credit. After consideration of the letter of credit commitments, $1,013.5 million of additional borrowing capacity was available to the Company under its revolving credit facility as of March 31, 2012.
CMBS Financing
In March 2011, we purchased $108.1 million of face value of CMBS Loans for $73.5 million, recognizing a gain of $33.2 million, net of deferred financing costs. In April 2011, we purchased $50.0 million of face value of CMBS Loans for $35.0 million, recognizing a gain of $14.3 million, net of deferred financing costs.
In January 2012, we purchased $2.0 million of face value of CMBS Loans for $1.0 million, recognizing a gain of $1.0 million, net of deferred financing costs. In March 2012, we purchased $116.7 million of face value of CMBS Loans for $70.8 million, recognizing a gain of $44.8 million, net of deferred financing costs.
Other Financing Transactions
In February 2012, Chester Downs issued $330.0 million aggregate principal amount of 9.25% senior secured notes due 2020 through a private placement. Chester Downs used $232.4 million of the proceeds of the notes to repay its existing term loan plus accrued interest and a prepayment penalty. The remaining proceeds were used to make a distribution to Chester Downs managing member, Harrahs Chester Downs Investment Company, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of CEOC, and for other general corporate purposes.
11
In February 2012, Caesars Operating Escrow LLC and Caesars Escrow Corporation, wholly owned subsidiaries of CEOC, completed the offering of $1,250.0 million aggregate principal amount of 8.5% senior secured notes due 2020, the proceeds of which were placed into escrow. On March 1, 2012, the escrow conditions were satisfied and CEOC assumed the notes. CEOC used $1,095.6 million of the net proceeds from this transaction to repay a portion of its Credit Facilities in connection with the March 2012 amendment discussed above.
Restrictive Covenants and Other Matters
Certain of our borrowings have covenants and requirements that include, among other things, the maintenance of specific levels of financial ratios. Failure to comply with these covenants can result in limiting our long-term growth prospects by hindering our ability to incur future indebtedness or grow through acquisitions. Specifically, CEOCs senior secured credit facilities require CEOC to maintain a senior secured leverage ratio of no more than 4.75 to 1.0, which is the ratio of senior first priority secured debt to last twelve months (LTM) Adjusted EBITDA-Pro Forma - CEOC Restricted. This ratio excludes up to $2,200.0 million of first priority senior secured notes and up to $350.0 million aggregate principal amount of consolidated debt of subsidiaries that are not wholly owned. This ratio also reduces the amount of senior first priority secured debt by the amount of unrestricted cash on hand. As of March 31, 2012, CEOCs senior secured leverage ratio was 4.11 to 1.0.
In addition, certain covenants contained in CEOCs senior secured credit facilities and indentures covering its second priority senior secured notes and first priority senior secured notes restrict our ability to take certain actions such as incurring additional debt or making acquisitions if we are unable to meet a fixed charge coverage ratio (LTM Adjusted EBITDA-Pro Forma - CEOC Restricted to fixed charges) of at least 2.0 to 1.0, a total first priority secured leverage ratio (first priority senior secured debt to LTM Adjusted EBITDA-Pro Forma - CEOC Restricted) of no more than 4.5 to 1.0, and/or a consolidated leverage ratio (consolidated total debt to LTM Adjusted EBITDA-Pro Forma - CEOC Restricted) of no more than 7.25 to 1.0. As of March 31, 2012, CEOCs total first priority secured leverage ratio and consolidated leverage ratio were 5.70 to 1.0 and 11.07 to 1.0, respectively. For the twelve months ended March 31, 2012, CEOCs earnings were insufficient to cover fixed charges by $434.4 million. For purposes of calculating the fixed charge coverage ratio, fixed charges includes consolidated interest expense less interest income and any cash dividends paid on preferred stock (other than amounts eliminated in consolidation). For purposes of calculating the total first priority secured leverage ratio and the consolidated leverage ratio, the amounts of first priority senior secured debt and consolidated total debt, respectively, are reduced by the amount of unrestricted cash on hand. The covenants that provide for the fixed charge coverage ratio, total first priority secured leverage ratio, and consolidated leverage ratio described in this paragraph are not maintenance covenants.

Note 6Derivative Instruments
Derivative InstrumentsInterest Rate Swap Agreements
We use interest rate swaps to manage the mix of our debt between fixed and variable rate instruments. As of March 31, 2012, we have entered into eight interest rate swap agreements for notional amounts totaling $5,750.0 million. The difference to be paid or received under the terms of the interest rate swap agreements is accrued as interest rates change and recognized as an adjustment to interest expense for the related debt. Changes in the variable interest rates to be paid or received pursuant to the terms of the interest rate swap agreements will have a corresponding effect on future cash flows. The major terms of the interest rate swap agreements as of March 31, 2012 are as follows:

The variable rate on our interest rate swap agreements did not materially change as a result of the April 25, 2012 reset.
On January 18, 2012, the Company amended the terms of three $1,000.0 million notional value of interest rate swap contracts with a corresponding change in the elected interest rate on $3,000.0 million of term loans under the Credit Facilities. Effective January 25, 2012 through January 25, 2014, the variable rate received on the swaps changed from three-month to one-month LIBOR and the fixed payment rate was reduced by 16.5 basis points. The amended payment rates and maturity dates are shown in the table above.
Derivative InstrumentsInterest Rate Cap Agreements
We have an interest rate cap agreement to partially hedge the risk of future increases in the variable rate of the CMBS Financing. The CMBS interest rate cap agreement, which was effective in January 2008 and terminates February 13, 2013, is for a notional amount of $6,500.0 million at a LIBOR cap rate of 4.5%. We are amortizing deferred losses from the interest rate cap frozen in accumulated other comprehensive loss (AOCL) into income over the original remaining term of the hedge forecasted transactions that are still probable of occurring. For the three months ended March 31, 2012, we recorded $5.2 million as an increase to interest expense, and we will record an additional $19.2 million as an increase to interest expense and AOCL through the termination date, all related to deferred losses on the interest rate cap. At March 31, 2012, $4,650.2 million of the interest rate cap was designated a cash flow hedging instrument for accounting purposes. Any future changes in fair value of the portion of the interest rate cap not designated as a hedging instrument will be recognized in interest expense during the period in which the changes in value occur.
The hedging relationship between the CMBS Financing and the interest rate cap has remained effective subsequent to each debt extinguishment. In connection with the extinguishments, we reclassified deferred losses out of AOCL and into interest expense associated with the hedge for which the forecasted future transactions are no longer probable of occurring.

In addition to the impact on interest expense from amounts reclassified from AOCL, the difference to be paid or received under the terms of the interest rate swap agreements is recognized as interest expense and is paid quarterly. This cash settlement portion of the interest rate swap agreements increased interest expense for the quarters ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 by approximately $41.8 million and $66.6 million, respectively.
At March 31, 2012, our variable-rate debt, excluding $5,750.0 million of variable-rate debt hedged using interest rate swap agreements, represents 28% of our total debt, while our fixed-rate debt is 72% of our total debt.

Note 7Stockholders Equity, Non-controlling Interests, and Loss Per Share
Common Stock
In January 2012, the Company entered into an agreement with certain of its direct and indirect stockholders, pursuant to which the Company, Hamlet Holdings, and entities controlled by the Sponsors released the contractual transfer restrictions on 24.2 million shares of our common stock (the Released Shares) beneficially owned by certain indirect stockholders (the Participating Co-Investors). In consideration for such release, the Participating Co-Investors agreed to contribute 1.8 million shares to the Company (the Delivered Shares). The Company agreed to cause the registration for resale (the Shelf Registration) under the Securities Act of the remaining Released Shares not constituting Delivered Shares (the Registered Shares) and the listing of the Registered Shares on NASDAQ.
In February 2012, the Company received the Delivered Shares, placed them into its treasury, and offered 1.8 million newly issued shares of its common stock and an underwriters allotment of 271,697 shares, in a public offering, at $9.00 per share. As a result of the public offering, the Companys common stock trades on the NASDAQ under the symbol CZR. In connection with this public offering, the Company effected a 1.742-for-one split of its common stock.
The Shelf Registration was filed in February 2012, and, upon its effectiveness, 50% of the Registered Shares became eligible for resale under the Shelf Registration. The Participating Co-Investors agreed not to offer or sell, dispose of or hedge, directly or indirectly, the remaining 50% of the Registered Shares without the permission of certain of the underwriters for the public offering for a period of 180 days from the pricing of such offering, subject to certain exceptions and automatic extension in certain circumstances.
In March 2012, the Company filed a prospectus with the SEC, as part of a registration statement, to sell shares of common stock, up to a maximum aggregate offering price of $500.0 million.
Non-controlling Interests
In March 2012, Rock Gaming, LLC (Rock) and Caesars Interactive Entertainment, Inc. (CIE), a majority-owned subsidiary of Caesars, entered into a subscription agreement pursuant to which Rock purchased approximately 6,155 shares of CIE common stock for $30.4 million in cash and agreed to purchase approximately 6,155 additional shares of CIE common stock for an additional $30.4 million on or before July 2, 2012. If Rock purchases the above shares of CIE common stock pursuant to the terms of the subscription agreement, then Rock has the option to purchase approximately 3,140 additional shares of CIE common stock for $19.2 million in cash, which option must be exercised on or before November 15, 2012.
Loss Per Share
Basic loss per share amounts are calculated by dividing net loss attributable to Caesars by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the periods presented. Because the Company generated net losses for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, the weighted-average basic shares outstanding was used in calculating diluted loss per share as using diluted shares would be anti-dilutive to loss per share.
The following table shows the number of shares which were excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, as they were anti-dilutive:

In February 2012, the Company declared a 1.742-for-one stock split in connection with its public offering, and the Board of Directors adopted the 2012 Performance Incentive Plan (the 2012 Incentive Plan).
Directors, employees, officers, and individual consultants or advisors who render services to the Company or its subsidiaries may be selected to receive awards under the 2012 Incentive Plan. Our Board of Directors or a subcommittee thereof has the authority to administer the 2012 Incentive Plan. The 2012 Incentive Plan includes the following limits:
| no more than 6,867,018 shares may be issued with respect to incentive stock options under the 2012 Incentive Plan; |
| the maximum number of shares of common stock subject to those options and stock appreciation rights that are granted during any calendar year to any individual under the 2012 Incentive Plan is 3,433,509 shares; |
| the maximum number of shares of common stock which may be delivered pursuant to performance-based awards (other than options and stock appreciation rights intended to satisfy the requirements for performance-based compensation under Internal Revenue Code Section 162(m), and other than cash awards covered by the cap in the following sentence) that are granted to any one participant in any calendar year will not exceed 1,373,404 shares, either individually or in the aggregate; |
| in addition, the aggregate amount of compensation to be paid to any one participant in respect of all performance-based awards payable only in cash and not related to shares of common stock and granted to that participant in any one calendar year will not exceed $25.0 million; and |
| awards cancelled during the year will be counted against the limits in the preceding two bullets to the extent required by Section 162 (m) of the Internal Revenue Code. |
As a result of adopting the 2012 Incentive Plan, options may no longer be granted under the Companys Management Equity Incentive Plan adopted February 27, 2008 (the 2008 Incentive Plan).
The following is a summary of share-based option activity, adjusted for the stock split, including options under the 2008 Incentive Plan and 2012 Incentive Plan and warrants to purchase common stock, for the three months ended March 31, 2012:

Note 9Write-downs, Reserves, and Project Opening Costs, net of Recoveries
Write-downs, reserves, and project opening costs, net of recoveries include various pre-tax charges to record long-lived tangible asset impairments, contingent liability reserves, costs associated with efficiency projects, project write-offs, demolition costs, and other non-routine transactions, net of recoveries of previously recorded non-routine reserves.
The components of write-downs, reserves, and project opening costs, net of recoveries are as follows:

Impairments of long-lived tangible assets include a $167.5 million non-cash impairment related to a previously halted development project in Biloxi, Mississippi.
Divestitures and abandonments include losses on divested assets and costs associated with various projects that are determined to no longer be viable.
Efficiency projects represent costs incurred to identify and implement efficiency programs aimed at streamlining corporate and operating functions to achieve cost savings and efficiencies, such as Project Renewal.
Remediation costs relate to projects at certain of our Las Vegas properties.
Note 10Income Taxes
Total income taxes were allocated as follows:
Quarter Ended March 31, | ||||||||
(In millions) |
2012 | 2011 | ||||||
Income tax (benefit) on loss before income taxes |
$ | (151.4 | ) | $ | (78.4 | ) | ||
Accumulated other comprehensive loss |
2.9 | 17.4 | ||||||
Accumulated deficit |
| 6.0 |
We classify reserves for tax uncertainties within accrued expenses and deferred credits and other in our consolidated balance sheets, separate from any related income tax payable or deferred income taxes. Reserve amounts relate to any potential income tax liabilities resulting from uncertain tax positions as well as potential interest or penalties associated with those liabilities. During the quarter ended March 31, 2012, our uncertain tax benefits, excluding related interest and penalties, did not change significantly from December 31, 2011.
We file income tax returns, including returns for our subsidiaries, with federal, state, and foreign jurisdictions. We are under regular and recurring audit by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) on open tax positions, and it is possible that the
17
amount of the liability for unrecognized tax benefits could change during the next twelve months. The IRS audit of our 2008 federal income tax year concluded during the quarter ended June 30, 2010. The IRS proposed an adjustment to our cancellation of debt income tax position which we appealed. We are currently awaiting the final results of our appeals process. As a result of a possible settlement of the issue under appeal, it is reasonably possible that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits at March 31, 2012 will decrease by a range of $0 to $70 million in the next twelve months. Any settlement will have no impact on the Companys effective tax rate.

Note 11Fair Value Measurements
Items Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
The following table shows the fair value of our financial assets and financial liabilities that are required to be measured at fair value as of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011:

The following section describes the valuation methodologies used to estimate or measure fair value, key inputs, and significant assumptions:
Investments Investments consist of debt and equity securities with maturity dates greater than 90 days at the date of the securitys acquisition. The majority of these securities are traded in active markets, have readily determined market values, and use Level 1 inputs. Securities for which there are not active markets or the market values are not readily determinable are valued using Level 2 inputs. All of these investments are included in either prepayments and other current assets or deferred charges and other in our consolidated balance sheets.
The fair value of investments in marketable securities were as follows:

Gross unrealized gains and losses on marketable securities at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011 were not material.
Derivative instruments The estimated fair values of our derivative instruments are derived from market prices obtained from dealer quotes for similar, but not identical, assets or liabilities. Such quotes represent the estimated amounts we would receive or pay to terminate the contracts. Derivative instruments are included in either deferred charges and other, or deferred credits and other, in our consolidated balance sheets. Our derivatives are recorded at their fair values, adjusted for the credit rating of the counterparty if the derivative is an asset, or adjusted for the credit rating of the Company if the derivative is a liability. See Note 6, Derivative Instruments, for more information.
Items Disclosed at Fair Value
Long-term debt The fair value of the Companys debt has been calculated based on the borrowing rates available as of March 31, 2012, for debt with similar terms and maturities, and based on market quotes of our publicly traded debt. As of March 31, 2012, the Companys outstanding debt had a fair value of $17,664.0 million and a carrying value of $19,891.8 million.

Note 12Litigation, Commitments, and Contingent Liabilities
Litigation
The Company is party to ordinary and routine litigation incidental to our business. We do not expect the outcome of any pending litigation to have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
Contractual Commitments and Contingent Liabilities
Material changes to our aggregate indebtedness are described in Note 5, Debt. As a result of these changes, at March 31, 2012, our estimated interest payments for the years ended December 31, 2012 through 2016 are $1,319.7 million, $1,766.8 million, $1,768.6 million, $1,388.5 million and $1,218.6 million, respectively, and our estimated interest payments thereafter are $1,773.2 million. There have been no material changes to our other known contractual obligations or material updates for our contingent liabilities to those set forth in our 2011 10-K.

Note 14Related Party Transactions
In connection with the Acquisition, the Sponsors entered into a services agreement with Caesars Entertainment relating to the provision of financial and strategic advisory services and consulting services. In addition, we pay a monitoring fee for management services and advice. Fees paid to the Sponsors, which are included in corporate expense in our consolidated statements of comprehensive loss, for each of the quarters ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 were $7.5 million. We also reimburse the Sponsors for expenses that they incur related to their management services.
Note 15Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Effective January 1, 2012, we adopted the updated guidance related to fair value measurement and disclosure requirements. The changes result in common fair value measurement and disclosure requirements between GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards and change the wording used to describe many of the requirements in GAAP for measuring fair value and for disclosing information about fair value measurements. This new guidance did not have any impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
Effective January 1, 2012, we adopted the new guidance for the presentation of comprehensive income. The new guidance requires that all nonowner changes in stockholders equity be presented either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. As this is a presentation and disclosure requirement, there was no impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows upon adoption.
Effective January 1, 2012, we adopted the revised guidance for goodwill impairment testing. The new guidance allows an entity to perform a qualitative assessment on goodwill to determine whether it is more likely than not (defined as having a likelihood of more than 50%) that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test. We will determine the impact of this guidance, if any, in conjunction with the annual assessment we perform as of September 30 of each year.
Note 16Subsequent Events
CMBS Loan Repurchase
In April 2012, we purchased $83.7 million of face value of CMBS Loans for $50.2 million, recognizing a gain of $32.7 million, net of deferred finance charges.
Equity Distribution Agreement
In April 2012, the Company entered into an equity distribution agreement with Citigroup Global Markets Inc. and Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC (collectively, the Manager), whereby the Company may issue and sell up to 10.0 million shares of the Companys common stock from time to time.
CEOC Credit Facilities
Under the March 2012 amendment to the Credit Facilities as described in Note 5, Debt, in April and May 2012, CEOC extended the maturity on an additional $27.0 million of B-1, B-2, and B-3 term loans and converted another $38.0 million of original maturity revolver commitments to Term B-6 Loans.
Harrahs St. Louis
In May 2012, the Company, along with certain of its wholly-owned subsidiaries, entered into an equity interest purchase agreement with Penn National Gaming, Inc. (the Buyer) whereby the Company is selling its Harrahs St. Louis casino to the Buyer. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the purchase agreement, the Buyer will purchase from the Company all of the equity interests of Harrahs St. Louis for a purchase price of $610.0 million, subject to customary closing conditions, including the receipt of regulatory approvals. The transaction is expected to close in the second half of 2012. The Company expects to use the proceeds from the sale for general corporate purposes, including, potentially, the repurchase of certain outstanding debt obligations.
Conrad Punta Del Este
In May 2012, the Company reached an agreement with the government of Uruguay to extend its gaming license in the country. The extension permits the Company to operate the casino at Conrad Punta Del Este Resort and Casino in Punta Del Este, Uruguay through 2036. As part of the agreement, the Company will pay an approximately $17 million license fee.

Item 2. | Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations |
The following discussion and analysis of the financial position and operating results of Caesars Entertainment for the quarters ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 should be read in conjunction with Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations presented in the 2011 10-K.
REGIONAL AGGREGATION
The executive officers of the Company review operating results, assess performance, and make decisions related to the allocation of resources on a property-by-property basis. We believe, therefore, that each property is an operating segment and that it is appropriate to aggregate and present the operations of the Company as one reportable segment. To provide more meaningful information than would be possible on a consolidated basis, the Companys casino properties (as of March 31, 2012 or otherwise noted below), have been grouped into seven regions as follows to facilitate discussion of the Companys operating results:

Quarter ended March 31, 2012 compared to March 31, 2011
Net revenues for the first quarter of 2012 were $2,271.9 million, up $92.9 million, or 4.3%, from the year-earlier period. The increase in net revenues was due mainly to higher revenues in the Las Vegas and Louisiana/Mississippi regions, and from the Companys international and online businesses, including revenues related to Playtika, which was acquired during 2011, partially offset by a decline in net revenues in the Atlantic City region.
For the first quarter of 2012, income from operations decreased $138.0 million, or 64.6%, to $75.5 million from $213.5 million in the year-ago first quarter, mainly due to a $172.0 million charge in the first quarter of 2012, of which $167.5 million is a non-cash impairment of a long-lived tangible asset, related to a previously halted development project in Biloxi, Mississippi. This decrease was partially offset by the income impact of higher revenues, a decrease of approximately $17 million in property tax expense related to the negotiation of a favorable Atlantic City property tax settlement in the first quarter 2012, and other cost reductions achieved as part of Project Renewal. Additionally, first quarter 2012 results include the recovery of business interruption insurance proceeds of approximately $7 million reflecting lost profits associated with temporary closures of three properties in Tunica, Mississippi in the first half of 2011, as a result of flooding.
Net loss attributable to Caesars for the first quarter of 2012 was $280.6 million, up $133.1 million, or 90.2%, from the first quarter of 2011. Higher net losses in the first quarter of 2012 reflect the decrease in income from operations and higher interest expense, partially offset by increased gains on early extinguishments of debt. See Other Factors Affecting Net Income section that follows herein for further discussion of the Companys interest expense and early extinguishments of debt.
Performance Metrics
The Company measures its performance in part through tracking of trips by rated customers, which means a customer whose gaming activity is tracked through its Total Rewards customer-loyalty system (trips), and by spend per rated customer trip (spend per trip). A trip is created by a Total Rewards card holder engaging in one or more of the following activities while at one of the Companys properties: (1) hotel stay, (2) gaming activity, or (3) a comp redemption, which means the receipt of a complimentary item given out by the Companys casinos. In markets where we have multiple properties, customers often engage in trip generating activities at more than one property in a day. In these instances, we consider the market as a whole and do not count multiple trips. Customer spend means the cumulative rated theoretical spend (which is the amount of money expected to be retained by the casino based upon the mathematics underlying the particular game as a fraction of the amount of money wagered by the customer) across all game types for a specific customer. For the Atlantic City region, the Company refers to customers that stay at a hotel in one of its properties as lodgers and customers that may play at a casino located in one of its properties but do not stay at a hotel at such property as non-lodgers.
The following table reflects the percentage increase/(decrease) in trips and spend per trip for the U.S. regions for the first quarter of 2012 compared with the same period in 2011.

30
On a consolidated basis, trips in the first quarter of 2012 increased 1.4% from 2011 due mainly to increased trips in Las Vegas and Atlantic Citys non-lodger segment, partially offset by trip declines in Atlantic Citys lodger segment. Trip increases are attributable to the Companys enterprise-wide cross-marketing initiatives.
On a consolidated basis, cash average daily room rates remained flat at $92 in the first quarter of 2012 compared to the first quarter of 2011. Total occupancy percentage also remained flat in the first quarter 2012.

Despite a decrease in spend per trip, net revenues in the Las Vegas region increased $45.2 million, or 6.2%, in the first quarter of 2012 from 2011, primarily due to continued strength in the international, high-end gaming segment and to the January 2012 opening to the public of the 662-room Octavius Tower at Caesars Palace. Hotel revenues in the region increased 5.2%, cash average daily room rates increased 1.0% to $95 from $94 and total occupancy percentages decreased 0.7 percentage points for the first quarter of 2012 from 2011. Income from operations increased $7.4 million, or 6.6%, for the first quarter of 2012, due to the income impact of increased revenues, partially offset by an increase in depreciation expense mainly associated with the opening of Octavius Tower.
During 2011, we commenced construction on project Linq, a dining, entertainment, and retail development between our Flamingo and Imperial Palace casinos, on the east side of the Las Vegas Strip, which is scheduled to open in phases in mid to late 2013. Through March 31, 2012, $65.9 million had been spent on this project.

Net revenues in the Atlantic City region were down $16.8 million, or 3.7%, in the first quarter of 2012 from 2011, as a decline in casino revenues more than offset increases in non-gaming revenues. Trips and spend per trip by lodgers decreased while trips and spend per trip increased for non-lodgers. Income from operations was slightly lower in the first quarter of 2012 compared to 2011 mainly due to the income impact of lower revenues and higher write-downs, reserves, and project opening costs, net of recoveries. These decreases to income from operations were mostly offset by a decrease in property tax expense of approximately $17 million related to the negotiation of a favorable property tax settlement in the first quarter of 2012.

Net revenues in the Louisiana/Mississippi region increased $17.3 million, or 6.0%, in the first quarter 2012 from 2011, primarily due to an increase in casino revenues. Trips rose in the first quarter 2012 from 2011 while spend per trip declined slightly. Loss from operations was $121.0 million in the first quarter of 2012 compared to income from operations of $33.7 million in 2011. This change was mainly due to a $172.0 million charge in the first quarter of 2012, of which $167.5 million is a non-cash impairment of a long-lived tangible asset, related to a previously halted development project in Biloxi, Mississippi, partially offset by increased revenues and reduced property operating expenses. Additionally, first quarter 2012 results include the recovery of business interruption insurance proceeds of approximately $7 million reflecting lost profits associated with temporary closures of three properties in Tunica, Mississippi in the first half of 2011, as a result of flooding.

Income from operations increased $2.8 million, or 6.4%, for the quarter due mainly to the income impact of higher revenues in the region.

Net revenues in the Illinois/Indiana region decreased $4.0 million, or 1.4%, in the first quarter of 2012 from 2011, due to the impact of both reduced access to one of the Companys properties resulting from a bridge closure beginning in the first week of September 2011 that reopened in February 2012, and new competition in the region. Income from operations for the first quarter of 2012 decreased $0.9 million, or 2.3%, from the same period of the prior year due mainly to the impact of lower net revenues.

Net revenues in Managed, International, and Other increased $51.3 million, or 32.7%, in the first quarter of 2012 from 2011, due mainly to increases in spend per trip at the Companys London Clubs properties and the addition of revenues from the 2011 acquisition of Playtika. Loss from operations decreased $9.5 million, or 22.4%, in the first quarter of 2012 from 2011, due mainly to the results of the Companys growing online businesses, partially offset by increased corporate expenses. Corporate expense for the first quarter of 2012 increased $17.9 million, or 52.2%, from the same period of 2011, due primarily to the consolidation of certain functions at corporate as a result of Project Renewal, including the implementation of a corporate shared-services organization, and increased stock-based compensation expense.

Interest Expense, Net of Interest Capitalized
Interest expense, net of interest capitalized, increased by $88.6 million, or 18.7%, for the quarter ended March 31, 2012 from the same period in 2011, due primarily to mark-to-market adjustments on interest rate swaps that are no longer designated for hedge accounting, higher debt balances compared to the year-ago quarter, and the write off of deferred financing costs and debt discounts associated with debt transactions completed in the first quarter of 2012. Interest expense is reported net of interest capitalized of $8.8 million and $0.5 million for the first quarter of 2012 and 2011, respectively. Interest capitalized in the first quarter of 2012 was primarily related to the Linq project in Las Vegas.
Gains on Early Extinguishments of Debt
During the first quarter of 2012, the Company recognized a gain on early extinguishments of debt of $45.8 million, net of deferred financing costs, due to the purchase of $118.7 million face value of CMBS Loans for $71.8 million. During the first quarter of 2011, the Company recognized a gain on early extinguishments of debt of $33.2 million, net of deferred financing costs, due to the purchase of $108.1 million face value of CMBS Loans for $73.5 million.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Cost Savings Initiatives
Caesars Entertainment has undertaken comprehensive cost-reduction efforts to right size expenses with business levels through its implementation of Project Renewal, an initiative designed to reinvent certain aspects of the Companys functional and operating units to gain significant further cost reductions and streamline its operations. As a part of Project Renewal, we designed a shared-services organization that will enable more efficient decision making and sharing of best practices. Caesars anticipates that the Company will have a permanently lower cost structure and will benefit from greater concentration of specified talent and quicker decision making. We estimate that Project Renewal and previous cost-savings programs produced $42.0 million in incremental cost savings for the first quarter of 2012, when compared to the same period of 2011. Additionally, as of March 31, 2012, we estimate that, once fully implemented, these cost-savings programs will produce additional annual cost savings of $188.6 million.
Capital Spending and Development
We incur capital expenditures in the normal course of business, and we perform ongoing refurbishment and maintenance at our existing casino entertainment facilities, to maintain our quality standards. We also continue to pursue development and acquisition opportunities for additional casino entertainment and other hospitality facilities that meet our strategic and return on investment criteria.
Our planned development projects, if they go forward, will require, individually and in the aggregate, significant capital commitments and, if completed, may result in significant additional revenues. The commitment of capital, the timing of completion, and the commencement of operations of development projects are contingent upon, among other things, negotiation of final agreements and receipt of approvals from the appropriate political and regulatory bodies. We must also comply with covenants and restrictions set forth in our debt agreements.
Our capital spending for the quarter ended March 31, 2012 totaled $82.9 million, which includes an increase of $11.4 million of construction payables. Estimated total capital expenditures for 2012, including 2012 expenditures associated with Project Linq, are expected to be between $590.0 million and $640.0 million.
Cash used for capital expenditures in the normal course of business is typically made available from cash flows generated by our operating activities while cash used for development projects, including projects currently under development as well as additional projects being pursued, is expected to be funded from established debt programs, specific project financing, and additional debt offerings.
Liquidity
Our cash and cash equivalents, excluding restricted cash, totaled $1,134.9 million at March 31, 2012 compared to $904.6 million at December 31, 2011. Restricted cash, including $58.9 million included in prepayments and other current assets, totaled $447.5 million at March 31, 2012. Nearly all of the restricted cash consists of cash reserved under loan agreements for development projects and certain expenditures incurred in the normal course of business, such as interest service, real estate taxes, property insurance, and capital improvements.
We are a highly leveraged company and a significant amount of our liquidity needs are for debt service. As of March 31, 2012, we had $19,891.8 million book value of indebtedness outstanding, including capital lease indebtedness, and cash paid for interest for the quarter ended March 31, 2012 was $274.0 million. Payments of short-term debt obligations and other commitments are expected to be made from operating cash flows and from borrowings under our established debt programs. Long-term obligations are expected to be paid through operating cash flows, refinancing of debt, or, if necessary, additional debt or equity offerings. We do not expect that any new financing is required to meet our obligations during the next 12 months.
Our operating cash inflows are used for operating expenses, debt service costs, working capital needs, and capital expenditures in the normal course of business. From time to time, we retire portions of our outstanding debt through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions, or otherwise, using available cash on hand or established debt programs.
In addition to cash flows from operations, available sources of cash include amounts available under our current revolving credit facility. At March 31, 2012, our additional borrowing capacity under the credit facility was $1,013.5 million.
In March 2012, the Company filed a prospectus with the SEC, as part of a registration statement, to sell shares of common stock, up to a maximum aggregate offering price of $500.0 million, and, in April 2012, the Company entered into an equity distribution agreement with Citigroup Global Markets Inc. and Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC (collectively, the Manager), whereby the Company may issue and sell up to 10.0 million shares of the Companys common stock from time to time.
35
Our ability to fund our operations, pay our debt obligations, and fund planned capital expenditures depends, in part, upon economic and other factors that are beyond our control, and disruptions in capital markets and restrictive covenants related to our existing debt could impact our ability to secure additional funds through financing activities. We believe that our cash and cash equivalents balance, our cash flows from operations, and the financing sources discussed herein will be sufficient to meet our normal operating requirements during the next 12 months and to fund capital expenditures.
We cannot assure you that our business will generate sufficient cash flows from operations, or that future borrowings will be available to us, to fund our liquidity needs and pay our indebtedness. If we are unable to meet our liquidity needs or pay our indebtedness when it is due, we may have to reduce or delay refurbishment and expansion projects, reduce expenses, sell assets, or attempt to restructure our debt. Any such actions could negatively impact our competitive position and revenue generation. In addition, we have pledged a significant portion of our assets as collateral under certain of our debt agreements, and, if any of those lenders accelerate the repayment of borrowings, there can be no assurance that we will have sufficient assets to repay our indebtedness.
Capital Resources
A substantial portion of our financing is comprised of credit facility and notes financing obtained by CEOC. The CEOC financings are neither secured nor guaranteed by Caesars other wholly-owned subsidiaries, including certain subsidiaries that own properties that secure $4,912.8 million face value, as of March 31, 2012, of the CMBS loans. Information pertaining solely to the consolidated financial position and results of CEOC and its subsidiaries can be found in Exhibit 99.1 of this 10-Q.
Please refer to Note 5, Debt, in Item 1 of this Form 10-Q for details on our debt outstanding. This detail includes, among other things, a table presenting details on our individual borrowings outstanding as of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, changes in our debt outstanding, and certain changes in the terms of existing debt for the quarter ended March 31, 2012. Note 5 also includes details on restrictive covenants related to certain of our borrowings. Note 6, Derivative Instruments, discusses the use of interest rate swap and interest rate cap derivatives to manage the mix of our debt between fixed and variable rate instruments.
Assuming extensions permitted under the CMBS Financing and the PHW Las Vegas senior secured loan, the majority of our debt is due in 2015 and beyond. Payments of short-term debt obligations and other commitments are expected to be made from operating cash flows and from borrowings under our established debt programs. Long-term obligations are expected to be paid through operating cash flows, refinancing of debt, or, if necessary, additional debt offerings.
As described in Note 5 to our consolidated financial statements, certain of our borrowings have covenants and requirements that include, among other things, the maintenance of specific levels of financial ratios. Failure to comply with these covenants can result in limiting our long-term growth prospects by hindering our ability to incur future indebtedness or grow through acquisitions.
We believe we are in compliance with CEOCs senior secured credit facilities and indentures, including the senior secured leverage ratio, as of March 31, 2012. If our LTM Adjusted EBITDA-Pro Forma - CEOC Restricted were to decline significantly from the level achieved at March 31, 2012, it could cause us to exceed the senior secured leverage ratio and could be an event of default under CEOCs credit agreement. However, we could implement certain actions in an effort to minimize the possibility of a breach of the senior secured leverage ratio, including reducing payroll and other operating costs, deferring or eliminating certain maintenance, delaying or deferring capital expenditures, or selling assets. In addition, under certain circumstances, our senior secured credit facilities allow us to apply cash contributions received by CEOC as a capital contribution to cure covenant breaches. However, there is no guarantee that such contributions will be able to be secured.
Guarantees of Third-Party Debt and Other Obligations and Commitments
Material changes to our aggregate indebtedness are described in Note 5, Debt, of this Form 10-Q. As a result of these changes, at March 31, 2012, our estimated interest payments for the years ended December 31, 2012 through 2016 are $1,319.7 million, $1,766.8 million, $1,768.6 million, $1,388.5 million and $1,218.6 million, respectively, and our estimated interest payments thereafter are $1,773.2 million. As of March 31, 2012, there have been no material changes outside the ordinary course of business to our other known contractual obligations, which are set forth in the table included in our 2011 10-K.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT PURSUANT TO THE PRIVATE
SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM ACT OF 1995
This quarterly report on Form 10-Q contains or may contain forward-looking statements intended to qualify for the safe harbor from liability established by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements can be identified by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. We have based these forward-looking statements on our current expectations about future events. Further, statements that include words such as may, will, project, might, expect, believe, anticipate, intend, could, would, estimate, continue, or pursue, or the negative of these words or other words or expressions of similar meaning may identify forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are found at various places throughout the report. These forward-looking statements, including, without limitation, those relating to future actions, new projects, strategies, future performance, the outcome of contingencies such as legal proceedings, and future financial results, wherever they occur in this report, are necessarily estimates reflecting the best judgment of our management and involve a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those suggested by the forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements should, therefore, be considered in light of various important factors set forth above and from time to time in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
In addition to the risk factors set forth above, important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from estimates or projections contained in the forward-looking statements include without limitation:
| the impact of our substantial indebtedness; |
| the impact, if any, of unfunded pension benefits under multi-employer pension plans; |
| the effects of local and national economic, credit and capital market conditions on the economy in general, and on the gaming industry in particular; |
| construction factors, including delays, increased costs of labor and materials, availability of labor and materials, zoning issues, environmental restrictions, soil and water conditions, weather and other hazards, site access matters and building permit issues; |
| the effects of environmental and structural building conditions relating to our properties; |
| our ability to timely and cost-effectively integrate companies that we acquire into our operations; |
| our ability to realize the expense reductions from our cost savings programs; |
| access to available and reasonable financing on a timely basis; |

| access to insurance on reasonable terms for our assets; |
| abnormal gaming holds (gaming hold is the amount of money that is retained by the casino from wagers by customers); |
| the potential difficulties in employee retention and recruitment as a result of our substantial indebtedness or any other factor; and |
| the effects of competition, including locations of competitors and operating and market competition. |
You are cautioned to not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this quarterly report for Form 10-Q. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or release any revisions to these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events, except as required by law.

Item 3. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk |
Market risk is the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices, such as interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, and commodity prices. Our primary exposure to market risk is interest rate risk associated with our debt. We attempt to limit our exposure to interest rate risk by managing the mix of our debt between fixed-rate and variable-rate obligations. Of our $22,710.2 million face value of debt, including capital lease obligations, at March 31, 2012, we have entered into interest rate swap agreements to fix the interest rate on $5,750.0 million of variable rate debt, and $6,314.6 million of debt remains subject to variable interest rates.
We use interest rate swaps to manage the mix of our debt between fixed and variable rate instruments. We do not purchase or hold any derivative financial instruments for trading purposes.
Foreign currency translation gains and losses were not material to our results of operations for the quarter ended March 31, 2012. Our only material ownership interests in businesses in foreign countries are London Clubs, Caesars Golf Macau, and an approximate 95% ownership of a casino in Uruguay. Therefore, we have not been subject to material foreign currency exchange rate risk from the effects that exchange rate movements of foreign currencies would have on our future operating results or cash flows.
From time to time, we hold investments in various available-for-sale equity securities; however, our exposure to price risk arising from the ownership of these investments is not material to our consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
Item 4. | Controls and Procedures |
Our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act)), as of March 31, 2012. Based on such evaluation, they have concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective and designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in applicable SEC rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting during our most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Item 1. | Legal Proceedings |
The Company is party to ordinary and routine litigation incidental to our business. We do not expect the outcome of any pending litigation to have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.
Item 1A. | Risk Factors |
There were no material changes from the risk factors set forth under Part I, Item 1A Risk Factors in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.
Item 2. | Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds |
None.
Item 3. | Defaults Upon Senior Securities |
None
Item 4. | Mine Safety Disclosures |
Not applicable

Item 5. | Other Information |
In June 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued guidance on the presentation of comprehensive income in financial statements. Entities are required to present total comprehensive income either in a single, continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate, but consecutive, statements. We adopted this standard as of January 1, 2012. The table below reflects the retrospective application of this guidance for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2011. As this is a presentation and disclosure requirement, there was no impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
