CHURCHILL DOWNS INCORPORATED REPORTS 2008 RESULTS
| • | 2008 Net Earnings From Continuing Operations Climb 71 Percent and 2008 EBITDA Increases by 45 Percent Driven by Higher Insurance Recoveries of $16.4 Million |
| • | 2008 Net Revenues From Continuing Operations Grow by 5 Percent |
LOUISVILLE, Ky. (March 4, 2009) – Churchill Downs Incorporated (NASDAQ: CHDN) (“Company”) today reported results for the fourth quarter and year ended Dec. 31, 2008.
For the full year, net revenues from continuing operations grew to $430.6 million, a 5 percent increase from the prior-year total of $410.7 million. Net revenues from continuing operations for the fourth quarter of 2008 were $85.9 million, down 3 percent from the previous year total of $89.1 million.
Net revenues from continuing operations for the year increased as both the Company’s On-line Business and its Gaming Business experienced a full year of operations in 2008, compared to a partial year of operations in 2007. These increases were partially offset by decreased revenues at Calder Race Course (“Calder”), caused primarily by the decision of certain horsemen’s groups to withhold consent to import or export racing signals during a portion of 2008.
Net earnings from continuing operations for 2008 increased to $29.1 million, or $2.09 per diluted common share, from $17.0 million, or $1.23 per diluted common share, in 2007. For the fourth quarter of 2008, the Company’s net loss from continuing operations improved to $3.5 million, or $0.26 per diluted common share, from a net loss from continuing operations of $5.1 million, or $0.38 per diluted common share, in the same period of 2007. Total EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) increased by 45 percent, or $25.1 million, from $55.2 million in 2007 to $80.2 million in 2008. Insurance recoveries increased from $0.8 million in 2007 related to damages incurred at Calder from Hurricane Wilma to $17.2 million in 2008 related to damages incurred at Fair Grounds Race Course (“Fair Grounds”) from Hurricane Katrina.
The decline in Racing Operations EBITDA, excluding insurance recoveries, of $6.9 million was driven primarily by lost pari-mutuel wagering at Calder related to the horsemen’s disputes. An increase in business at Churchill Downs racetrack from the performance of Kentucky Derby week partially offset this decline. Gaming EBITDA increased year-over-year by $7.8 million primarily due to a full year of performance of the slot operations at Fair Grounds, while On-line Business EBITDA increased year-over-year by $7.8 million as a result of a full year of performance of TwinSpires, which also benefited from additional racing content.
President and Chief Executive Officer Robert L. Evans said the Company continued to improve its financial results in 2008 and make progress on strategic initiatives designed to generate further growth. “Despite a challenging economy in 2008, we continued to

grow revenues and manage our cost structure proactively, which led to strong full-year results for the Company,” said Evans. “Our reported EBITDA of $80.2 million for 2008, a record high for us, was favorably affected by higher insurance settlements of $16.4 million related to damages incurred from natural disasters. Excluding insurance recoveries in both years, Company EBITDA increased by 16 percent year-over-year. We repaid $24.8 million in net bank debt despite spending over $40 million on new investments like our permanent slot facility in New Orleans. We ended the year with a strong balance sheet that, we believe, positions us well for the expected tough economy in 2009 and to pursue growth opportunities.
“We saw the value of our increasingly diversified business mix in 2008, as gains in our Gaming and On-line business segments more than offset declines in our Racing Operations. TwinSpires produced $31.7 million more in additional revenue than in 2007 as a result of a full year of operations in 2008, as well as customers increasingly choosing to wager on-line. In addition, our Gaming Business, buoyed by a full year of operations and the opening of our permanent slot facility at Fair Grounds in November 2008, produced $21.5 million more in revenues in 2008 than in 2007. Average daily gross win per unit remains at $250 through the first two months of 2009. Our Gaming and On-line businesses together accounted for approximately 24 percent of our net revenues from continuing operations and 31 percent of our EBITDA in 2008.
“We continue to work through the design, planning, permitting and licensing processes for the construction of an up-to-2,000 slot machine facility at Calder. We currently plan to build a stand-alone, approximately 100,000 square-foot facility that we hope to open prior to the holidays in 2009 if all goes according to schedule. Including machine acquisition, we plan to invest approximately $85 million in this project. We will adjust and finalize our plan and timeline in light of the ongoing discussions in Tallahassee regarding a competitive tax structure for the South Florida pari-mutuels. We also continue to pursue expanded gaming in Kentucky and Illinois in an effort to remain competitive with surrounding states and with other gaming opportunities available to our customers.
“In November of 2008, the Company’s board of directors approved a new strategy for Churchill Downs Incorporated. It is our intention, building on our leadership position in Thoroughbred racing, to become the leading provider of integrated racing, gaming and entertainment, delivered at our racetracks, off-track betting facilities, casinos and other venues, as well as on-line via Twinspires.com, BRISnet.com and other Web sites. We believe the best way to maintain our leadership position in racing is to first ensure that we remain a growing, profitable and financially sound business, and second, to look for new and innovative ways to design and market racing to a broader audience. 2008 saw the introduction of several new initiatives intended to grow racing, including the launch of the industry’s first Internet protocol television network (“IPTV”) for racing, Twinspires.tv, the introduction of the first high-definition simulcast television broadcast of any racetrack in the United States, and the announcement of the return of the Breeders’ Cup World Championships to Churchill Downs in 2010 for a record seventh time.”
Evans concluded, “As another example of our ongoing commitment to racing, we announced on March 2 that we will invest an additional $1 million or more annually in a series of groundbreaking new rules, actions and policies designed to enhance the safety and welfare of every horse and jockey that will compete not only in Kentucky Derby 135 on May 2, but in each of the over 4,000 races conducted annually at CDI racetracks. We hope every racetrack in the U.S. will join us in raising the level of safety in our industry.”

A reconciliation of EBITDA to net earnings is included in the Supplemental Information by Operating Unit table within this news release.
