(NASDAQ: ERI) (“Eldorado,” “ERI,” or “the Company”) announced today that it completed the previously announced purchase of MGM Resorts International’s (NYSE: MGM) 50 percent interest in the Silver Legacy Resort Casino Reno, as well as the assets of Circus Circus Reno, for total consideration of $72.5 million cash plus a working capital adjustment. In addition, ERI repaid the entire outstanding balance of the Silver Legacy credit facility, which amounted to approximately $52.6 million on a net debt basis. The transaction was financed with cash on hand, cash from the escrow account established at the time of the Company’s July financings and borrowings under the Company’s revolving credit facility. As a result, Eldorado has withdrawn its registration statement relating to a proposed common stock offering, the proceeds of which were intended to pay a portion of the purchase price for the Circus Circus Reno and 50% interest in the Silver Legacy joint venture. “The addition of Silver Legacy and Circus Circus Reno to our operations is consistent with our strategy to enhance shareholder value by pursuing strategically and economically attractive transactions,” said Gary Carano, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Eldorado. “We are very excited to welcome the Silver Legacy and Circus Circus Reno employees to the Eldorado family at a time when the Reno gaming market and the northern Nevada economy is prospering.
