Penn National Gaming has closed on its underwritten public offering of 16,100,000 shares of its common stock, $0.01 par value per share.

The Offering includes 14,000,000 shares of its common stock initially offered by the Company and 2,100,000 shares of its common stock issued pursuant to the option granted the underwriters, which the underwriters exercised in full on September 25, 2020.

“This successful offering provides our Company with additional resources to accelerate our unique omni-channel strategy, including launching the Barstool Sportsbook app in new markets, developing new products and features, establishing Barstool-branded sports bars and retail sportsbooks and reimagining the customer experience at our casinos, all while fortifying our balance sheet,” said Jay Snowden, President and Chief Executive Officer of Penn National. Pro forma for the transaction, as of June 30, 2020, the Company had net traditional debt of approximately $1 billion, representing a significant reduction from pre-COVID-19 periods.

“This is a very exciting time for our Company,” continued Mr. Snowden. “On September 18, we officially introduced the Barstool Sportsbook app in the state of Pennsylvania, which broke records for the most downloads ever for the launch of a new mobile sportsbook, and it generated impressive handle. This momentum has continued into our second week of operation, as this weekend’s handle grew by 14% over our initial weekend despite continuing to spend $0 in external marketing.

In addition, we are extremely pleased with the operating performance of our properties this quarter, despite continued occupancy restrictions. Penn National currently continues to expect 3Q20 consolidated revenues will range from $1,040 million to $1,145 million and 3Q20 consolidated Adjusted EBITDAR will range from $410 million to $450 million, consistent with the ranges previously reported in our prospectus supplement. In short, we believe our Company is incredibly well positioned for long-term success based on its highly differentiated approach to both land-based and interactive gaming and sports betting.”
