Gaming and Leisure Properties, also known as GLPI, has increased its portfolio by acquiring three casino resorts in South Dakota and Nevada.<\/strong><\/p>\n GLPI has spent a reported $105 million when purchasing the three casino resorts in South Dakota and Nevada, as it looks to increase its name across North America.<\/p>\n The selected properties were the Silverado Franklin Hotel & Gaming Complex and the Deadwood Mountain Grand in South Dakota, alongside the Baldini’s Casino in Nevada.<\/p>\n GLPI has also created a new ‘tenant’ agreement with Strategic Gaming Management, as it enters a longer-term lease partnership in 2024.<\/p>\n This new agreement has a variety of terms, as GLPI will now lease the newly purchased properties to partners of Strategic Gaming Management for around 25-years.<\/p>\n Over the course of these agreements, the overall investment (which includes capital improvement proceeds) has reached $110m.<\/p>\n Annually, this lease will make an initial aggregate cash rent of $9.2m and this will represent a capitalization rate of 8.4%.<\/p>\n GLPI has also obtained a right of first refusal on any purchases in the future that are in partnership with Strategic Gaming Management.<\/p>\n This runs until SGM’s adjusted earnings, prior to interest, depreciation, taxes, amortization and restructuring or rent costs finish $40m per year.<\/p>\n GLPI CEO and Chairman, Peter Carlino, spoke about the new additions at the company and how it can improve operating results.<\/p>\n He said: \u201cWith our acquisition of the Silverado, DMG and Baldini\u2019s properties, we are pleased to further diversify our property portfolio while expanding our tenant roster through our new relationship with Strategic, a dynamic and growing gaming operator.<\/p>\n \u201cThe addition of Strategic\u2019s properties expands our portfolio to 65 properties across 20 states with 9 tenants and is expected to be immediately accretive to GLPI\u2019s operating results.\u201d<\/p>\n Strategics’ CEO, J. Grant Lincoln, was also pleased with the new partnership and believes it can kick-start a period of growth.<\/p>\n He said: \u201cWe are pleased to begin our partnership with GLPI. Our operating approach, informed by decades of successful experience in competitive gaming markets, is laser-focused on bottom-line results.<\/p>\n \u201cOur platform is well positioned for thoughtful, ongoing growth. As we explored the options for a sale-leaseback partner, GLPI rose above the rest given their unique approach and true emphasis on partnership as well as their deep experience as gaming operators.\u201d<\/p>\nGLPI Increases Portfolio With Three Casinos In South Dakota & Nevada<\/h2>\n
