The company has made significant progress in its Illinois operations, with the Temporary Casino achieving record revenue and profitability. Chamonix has also shown improvement, driven by a focus on controlling costs and growing revenues through digital marketing and casino hosts.

Financing and Capital Allocation

Full House Resorts has $40 million in liquidity and is expected to incur low capital expenditures until the permanent American Place casino construction begins. The company is exploring financing options, including bonds, land leases, and REITs, to fund the $302 million budgeted for the permanent casino. Management has expressed a preference for the bond market but is evaluating other options, citing recent REIT transactions as potentially favorable.

As Daniel Lee noted, the company is focused on building long-term shareholder value and finding the right financing for the permanent American Place casino. With a strong recent quarter and easy comparisons going forward, the company is optimistic about its future.

Growth Prospects

The company is working to build a day-trip business from Colorado Springs and develop meeting room space at Chamonix. The management team is focused on filling rooms midweek as a key lever for growth. In Indiana, the company is exploring the possibility of relocating a casino to a higher-population area, which could potentially increase state tax revenues.
