CHURCHILL DOWNS INCORPORATED REPORTS 2008 Q3 RESULTS
| • | EBITDA From Continuing Operations Grows 11 Percent Year Over Year |
| • | Net Earnings From Continuing Operations Increase Year Over Year |
LOUISVILLE, Ky. (Nov. 5, 2008) – Churchill Downs Incorporated (NASDAQ: CHDN) (“Company” or “CDI”) today reported results for the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2008.
Net revenues from continuing operations for the third quarter of 2008 totaled $99.6 million, a decrease of 4 percent over net revenues from continuing operations of $103.9 million recorded during the third quarter of 2007. Net revenues from continuing operations for the quarter were lower primarily due to decreased revenues at Calder Race Course (“Calder”), caused in part by certain horsemen’s groups withholding their consent to import or export racing signals to or from Calder during a portion of 2008. In addition, disputes with horsemen in Kentucky and Florida over distribution of simulcast signals to national advance-deposit wagering (“ADW”) businesses had a negative impact on net revenues from continuing operations. These decreases were partially offset by substantial increases in revenues related to the Company’s temporary slot facility at Fair Grounds Race Course (“Fair Grounds”) in New Orleans, which opened in September 2007, and to the performance of TwinSpires.com, the Company’s ADW business.
Net earnings from continuing operations for the third quarter were $2.3 million, or $0.17 per diluted common share, compared to net earnings from continuing operations of $1.1 million, or $0.08 per diluted common share, during the third quarter of 2007. Overall Company EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) increased by 11 percent, or $1.1 million. A decline of $3.0 million in EBITDA from Racing Operations was primarily attributable to horsemen disputes in Florida and Kentucky, the weaker U.S. economy, and lower U.S. Thoroughbred industry handle. This decline was more than offset by the performance of the Company’s Gaming and On-line businesses, where EBITDA for both segments increased primarily due to the success of the temporary slot facility at Fair Grounds and an increase in wagering content, the number of new ADW customer accounts and the average daily wagering activity in existing accounts.
On a continuing operations basis, year-to-date net revenues increased 7 percent, year-to-date EBITDA increased 39 percent, and year-to-date net earnings increased 47 percent over the

first nine months of 2007.
President and Chief Executive Officer Robert L. Evans said the Company continued to make progress toward growth and improved profitability during the quarter. “Despite a tough economy and challenging industry environment, we had a very solid quarter and continue to make progress on our strategic goals,” said Evans.
“According to statistics provided by the National Thoroughbred Racing Association, the U.S. Thoroughbred racing industry’s handle was down about 10 percent year-over-year during the third quarter of 2008,” Evans continued. “Arlington Park was down 6 percent in handle and 3 percent in net pari-mutuel revenues, which was better than the industry average. Calder Race Course was down 27 percent in handle and 26 percent in net pari-mutuel revenues, which is largely due to disputes with horsemen over purses, slot and ADW revenues. Those downturns were offset by growth in our On-line and Gaming businesses. The temporary slot facility at Fair Grounds continued to outperform our expectations, despite having lost seven business days due to the effects of Hurricane Gustav. Our net win per unit was $239 in the third quarter. The 250-machine temporary slot facility at Fair Grounds will be replaced by our permanent slot facility, which is expected to open on Nov. 14 with approximately 600 slot machines.
“The success of our Gaming operations in Louisiana has allowed us to offer record daily overnight purses for Fair Grounds’ upcoming 2008-09 Thoroughbred racing meet, and we anticipate that Fair Grounds will continue to evolve into the leading winter Thoroughbred racing venue in the U.S.
“Our On-line business continued to grow with that segment’s EBITDA up 195 percent in the third quarter, the first quarter for which full year-to-year comparisons are relevant, since we launched TwinSpires.com in May 2007 and acquired the AmericaTAB and BRIS family of companies in early June 2007. The performance of TwinSpires.com in the third quarter of 2008 demonstrates the importance of the ADW distribution channel to U.S. Thoroughbred racing. In a time of increasing unemployment and declining consumer confidence, our customers chose to use TwinSpires.com as their convenient, low-cost way to wager 62 percent more than they did in the prior year, even while industry handle was down 10 percent.
“We continue to manage our cost structure in a proactive manner, as evidenced by our EBITDA margin improvement,” Evans said in conclusion. “Combined with the increasing diversity of our sources of revenue, we have been able to improve our financial performance in what have been rather turbulent economic times. With our strong balance sheet, we are well positioned to take advantage of growth opportunities.”

In addition to the results provided in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”), the Company has provided a non-GAAP measurement, which presents a financial measure of earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”). Churchill Downs Incorporated uses EBITDA as a key performance measure of results of operations for purposes of evaluating performance internally. The Company believes the use of this measure enables management and investors to evaluate and compare, from period to period, the Company’s operating performance in a meaningful and consistent manner. This non-GAAP measurement is not intended to replace the presentation of the Company’s financial results in accordance with GAAP.
Churchill Downs Incorporated (“Churchill Downs”), headquartered in Louisville, Ky., owns and operates world-renowned horse racing venues throughout the United States. Churchill Downs’ four racetracks in Florida, Illinois, Kentucky and Louisiana host many of North America’s most prestigious races, including the Kentucky Derby and Kentucky Oaks, Arlington Million, Princess Rooney Handicap and Louisiana Derby. Churchill Downs racetracks have hosted seven Breeders’ Cup World Championships. Churchill Downs also owns off-track betting facilities and has interests in various advance-deposit wagering, television production, telecommunications and racing services companies, including a 50-percent interest in the national cable and satellite network HorseRacing TV™, that support the Company’s network of simulcasting and racing operations.
