NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

PERIODS ENDED JUNE 30, 2011 AND 2010 (Unaudited)


	The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and in the opinion of management, contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP), the financial position of Canterbury Park Holding Corporation as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010; the results of its operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010; and its cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2010 was derived from the audited financial statements. Information furnished in these financial statements includes normal recurring adjustments and reflects all adjustments which are, in our opinion, necessary for a fair presentation. Results for an interim period are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year.

	The complete summary of significant accounting policies is included in the notes to consolidated financial statements in the 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

1.	SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

	Business – Canterbury Park Holding Corporation (the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of Minnesota and acquired land and buildings to conduct pari-mutuel horse racing operations (the “Racetrack”) in March 1994. The Racetrack is located in Shakopee, Minnesota, approximately 25 miles southwest of downtown Minneapolis. In May 1994, we commenced year-round horse racing simulcast operations and hosted the first annual live race meet during the summer of 1995. Our live racing operations are a seasonal business as we host live race meets each year from May until early September. We earn additional pari-mutuel revenue by televising our live racing to out-of-state racetracks around the country. Canterbury Park’s Card Casino operates 24 hours a day, seven days a week and is limited by Minnesota State law to a maximum of 50 tables. The Card Casino currently offers a variety of poker and table games. Our three largest sources of revenues, Card Casino operations, pari-mutuel operations and concessions sales, generate cash revenues. We also derive revenues from related services and activities, such as advertising, parking and publication sales and from other entertainment events and activities held at the Racetrack.

	Revenue Recognition – Our revenues are derived primarily from the operations of a Card Casino, pari-mutuel wagering on simulcast and live horse races, concession sales, and related activities. Collection revenue from Card Casino operations, a set percentage of wagers, is recognized at the time that the wagering process is complete. Pari-mutuel revenues are recognized upon occurrence of the live race that is presented for wagering and after that live race is made official by the respective state’s racing regulatory body. Revenues related to concession and publication sales and parking and admission fees are recognized as revenue when the service has been performed or the product has been delivered. All sales taxes are presented on a net basis and are excluded from revenue.

	Estimates – The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

	Unrestricted Cash – Cash includes all investments with original maturities of three months or less or which are readily convertible into known amounts of cash and are not legally restricted. Accounts at each institution are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $250,000. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risk on cash.

Table of Contents


	Restricted Cash – Restricted cash represents refundable deposits and amounts due to horsemen for purses, stakes and awards, and amounts accumulated in card game progressive jackpot pools, the player pool and poker promotional fund to be used to repay card players in the form of promotions, giveaways, prizes, or by other means.

	Uncashed Winning Tickets – The Company records a liability for winning tickets upon the completion of a race. As winning tickets are redeemed, this liability is reduced for the respective cash payment. We recognize revenue associated with the uncashed winning tickets when the likelihood of the redemption of the winning ticket is remote.

	Promotional Allowances – The Company offers certain promotional allowances at no charge to patrons who participate in our player rewards program. The retail value of these promotional items is shown as a deduction from total revenues on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.

	Due to Minnesota Horsemen’s Benevolent and Protective Association, Inc. (“MHBPA”) – The Minnesota Pari-mutuel Horse Racing Act specifies that the Company is required to segregate a portion of funds (recorded as purse expense in the statements of operations), received from card room operations and wagering on simulcast and live horse races, for future payment as purses for live horse races or other uses of the horsepersons’ associations. Pursuant to an agreement with the MHBPA, the Company transferred into a trust account or paid directly to the MHBPA, approximately $2,425,000 and $2,225,000 for the six-month periods ending June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, related to thoroughbred races. Minnesota Statutes specify that amounts transferred into the trust account are the property of the trust and not of the Company.

	Impairment of Long-Lived Assets – Management of the Company periodically reviews the carrying value of property and equipment for potential impairment by comparing the carrying value of these assets with their related expected future net cash flows. Should the sum of the related expected future net cash flows be less than the carrying value, management will determine whether an impairment loss should be recognized. An impairment loss would be measured by the amount by which the carrying value of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. To date, management has determined that no impairment of these assets exists.

	Land, Buildings, and Equipment – Land, buildings, equipment, and building improvements are capitalized at a level of $1,000 or greater and are recorded at cost. Repair and maintenance costs are charged to operations when incurred. Furniture, fixtures, and equipment are depreciated using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives ranging from 5 – 7 years, while buildings are depreciated over 15 – 39 years. Building improvements are amortized using the straight-line method over the useful life of the assets.

	Card Casino Accruals – Minnesota law allows the Company to collect amounts from patrons to fund progressive jackpot pools in the Card Casino. These amounts, along with amounts earned by the player pool, promotional pools and the outstanding chip liability, are accrued as short-term liabilities at each balance sheet date.

	Income Taxes – Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which those temporary differences are expected to reverse. The effective income tax rate for 2011 is higher than the statutory rate primarily due to non-deductible lobbying expenses relating to the Company’s effort to obtain electronic gaming devices at the Racetrack.

	Interest and penalties associated with uncertain income tax positions are presented in income tax expense. During the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, we did not recognize any expense related to interest and penalties. Additionally, we do not have any amounts accrued at June 30, 2011 for the payment of interest and penalties.

Table of Contents


	Net Income (Loss) Per Share – Basic net income (loss) per common share is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period. The weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the three and six-month period ended June 30, 2011 were 4,066,539 and 4,067,743, respectively. The weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the three and six-month period ended June 30, 2010 were 4,035,993 and 4,034,320, respectively. Diluted net income per common share takes into effect the dilutive effect of potential common shares outstanding. The Company’s potential common shares outstanding are stock options. After considering the dilutive effect of stock options outstanding, the weighted average shares used to calculate diluted earnings per share for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2011 were 4,066,539 and 4,067,743, respectively. Weighted average shares of 51,667 and 59,397 were considered anti-dilutive and excluded from the computation of common equivalent shares for the three and six-month period ended June 30, 2011, as the Company reported a net loss for that period. The weighted average shares used to calculate diluted earnings per share for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2010 were 4,035,993 and 4,034,320, respectively. Weighted average shares of 126 and 8,296 were considered anti-dilutive and excluded from the computation of common equivalent shares for the three and six-month period ended June 30, 2010, as the Company reported a net loss for that period.

	Recent Accounting Pronouncements – In January 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2010-06 (“ASU 2010-06”) – “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures.” ASU 2010-06 amends Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820-10, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”, and requires new disclosures surrounding certain fair value measurements. ASU 2010-06 was effective for the first interim or annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2009, except for certain disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements in the rollforward of activity in Level 3 fair value measurements, which are effective for the first interim and annual reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2010. The adoption of ASU 2010-06 did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

	In April 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2010-16 (“ASU 2010-16”) “Entertainment—Casinos (Topic 924): Accruals for Casino Jackpot Liabilities.” ASU 2010-16 codifies the consensus reached in Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 09-F, “Casino Base Jackpot Liabilities.” ASU 2010-16 amends the ASC to clarify that an entity should not accrue jackpot liabilities, or portions thereof, before a jackpot is won if the entity can avoid paying the jackpot. Jackpots should be accrued and charged to revenue when an entity has the obligation to pay the jackpot. The guidance in this ASU applies to both base and progressive jackpots. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2010. The amendments should be applied by recording a cumulative-effect adjustment to opening retained earnings in the period of adoption. The adoption of ASU 2010-16 did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

2.	STOCK BASED COMPENSATION

	Stock based compensation is recorded at fair value as of the date of grant and included in the salaries and benefits expense line item on the consolidated statements of operations and amounted to $132,750 and $102,052 during the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

	Prior to June 2, 2011, the Company’s Stock Plan provided for annual, automatic grants to each non-employee member of the Board of Directors on the first business day each February of non-qualified stock options to acquire 3,000 shares of common stock. Pursuant to this provision, on February 1, 2011, 15,000 options were granted to five non-employee board members with an exercise price per share equal to the market price on the date of grant of $13.30. The stock options vest over a six-month period and expire in ten years. The compensation cost associated with this grant of Board of Directors options is $93,750 and will be recognized as expense over the six-month vesting period. On February 1, 2010, 15,000 options were granted to the five non-employee board members with an exercise price per share equal to the market price on the date of grant of $7.05.

Table of Contents


	Pursuant to Board action taken on April 15, 2011 and shareholder approval on June 2, 2011, the Company’s Stock Plan was amended to authorize annual grants of restricted stock or stock options, or both, as determined by the Board, and, pursuant to the amended Stock Plan, on June 2, 2011, 1,000 shares of restricted stock were granted to each of the five non-employee members of the Board of Directors. The restricted stock will vest 100% after one year and will be subject to restrictions on resale for an additional year. The compensation cost associated with the total grant of 5,000 shares is $73,300 that will be recognized as expense over the one-year vesting period.

	In addition, on February 25, 2010, 86,500 incentive stock options were granted to employees with an exercise price per share equal to the market price on the date of grant of $8.28. The stock options vest over a 42-month period and expire in ten years. The compensation cost associated with this grant of employee options is $282,355 to be recognized as expense over the 42-month vesting period.

	The number of shares that may be issued pursuant to options and restricted stock granted and the weighted average fair value during the periods presented were:


	Six Months Ended
	June 30, 2011				June 30, 2010
	Grant		Weighted Average Fair Value Per Share		Grant		Weighted Average Fair Value Per Share

Board stock options		15,000	$	6.25		15,000	$	3.03
Board restricted stock		5,000	$	14.66		—		—
Employee stock options		—		—		86,500	$	3.79

Total shares		20,000				101,500


	The fair value of stock options granted under the Company’s 1994 Stock Plan during the first six months of 2011 and 2010 were estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions and results:


	2011			2010
Dividend yield		0.00	%		0.00	%
Weighted-average volatility		50	%		43	%

	Employee Stock Ownership Plan – Prior to 2008, the Company contributed shares of its common stock to its Employee Stock Ownership Plan (“ESOP”). However, no contributions have been made from January 1, 2008 to date, and the Company has not taken any action to reinstate contributions to the ESOP.

3.	FAIR VALUE

	ASC 820 defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.

	The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

	Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Table of Contents


	Level 2 – Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

	Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

	The Company utilizes the market approach to measure fair value for its financial assets and liabilities. The market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities.

	The Company had no assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis at December 31, 2010.

	Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis at June 30, 2011 are summarized below:

4.	GENERAL CREDIT AGREEMENT

	The Company has a general credit agreement with Bremer Bank, which provides a revolving credit line of up to $3,000,000. On May 8, 2011, the Company signed an amendment with Bremer Bank extending the expiration date from May 8, 2011 to May 6, 2012, while keeping previous provisions intact. The Company had no borrowings under this credit line at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010. The credit agreement contains certain covenants requiring the Company to maintain certain financial ratios. The Company was in compliance with these requirements as of June 30, 2011. The Company believes that unrestricted funds available in its cash accounts, funds available under this line of credit, along with funds generated from operations, will be sufficient to satisfy its liquidity and capital resource requirements during 2011.

5.	OPERATING SEGMENTS

	During the first six months of 2011 and 2010, the Company had three reportable operating segments: horse racing, Card Casino, and concessions. The horse racing segment primarily represents simulcast and live horse racing operations. The Card Casino segment primarily represents operations of Canterbury Park’s Card Casino, and the concessions segment primarily represents food and beverage operations provided during simulcast and live racing, in the Card Casino, and during special events. The Company’s reportable operating segments are strategic business units that offer different products and services. They are managed separately because the segments differ in the nature of the products and services provided as well as processes to produce those products and services. The Minnesota Racing Commission (“MRC”) regulates the horse racing and Card Casino segments.

	The accounting policies of the operating segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies in the 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

	Depreciation, interest expense and income taxes are allocated to the segments but no allocation is made to concessions for shared facilities. However, the concessions segment pays approximately 25% of gross revenues earned on live racing and special event days to the horse racing segment for use of the facilities.

6.	COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

	In accordance with an Earn Out Note, given to the prior owner of the Racetrack as part of the consideration paid by the Company to acquire the Racetrack in 1994, if (i) off-track betting becomes legally permissible in the State of Minnesota and (ii) the Company begins to conduct off-track betting with respect to or in connection with its operations, the Company will be required to pay to the IMR Fund, L.P. the greater of $700,000 per operating year, as defined, or 20% of the net pretax profit, as defined for each of five operating years. At this time, management believes that the likelihood that these two conditions will be met, and that the Company will be required to pay these amounts, is remote. At the date (if any) that these two conditions are met, the five minimum payments will be discounted back to their present value and the sum of those discounted payments will be capitalized as part of the purchase price in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The purchase price will be further increased if payments become due under the “20% of Net Pretax Profit” calculation. The first payment is to be made 90 days after the end of the third operating year in which off-track betting is conducted by the Company. Remaining payments would be made within 90 days of the end of each of the next four operating years.

	The Company periodically is subject to claims or involved in legal proceedings arising in the normal course of business. At June 30, 2011, management believes that the resolution of any pending claims or legal proceedings will not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

7.	LOSS ON DISPOSAL OF ASSETS

	In January 2010, and in accordance with Minnesota Statute 240, the Company obtained approval from the MRC to remodel its existing card room. Construction and architectural contracts with various firms were signed shortly thereafter, and the card room was moved to a temporary location on the mezzanine level on January 25, 2010. The Company used cash on hand to fund the project and avoided drawing on its line of credit. As part of the remodeling project, the Company disposed of assets during the first quarter of 2010 with an original cost of $2,354,619 and associated accumulated depreciation of $1,445,079, resulting in a loss on disposal of $909,540. The remodeling project was completed during the second quarter of 2010 and on April 14, 2010, Canterbury Park opened its new Card Casino.

Table of Contents


8.	SUBSEQUENT EVENT

	Effective at midnight on June 30, 2011, the Company suspended all of its gaming operations. This action stemmed from the inability of Minnesota’s Governor and Legislature to reach agreement on the State’s budget for the biennium beginning July 1, 2011. The inability to reach an agreement forced many state agencies to immediately shut down because no monies had been appropriated for their operations. The Minnesota Racing Commission (“MRC”), the agency which regulates Canterbury Park’s pari-mutuel and Card Casino gaming operations, was one of the many state agencies ordered to close, and, without this regulatory oversight, the Company was directed to cease gaming operations pending the appropriation of funds for the MRC. Eventually, a budget agreement was approved on July 20, 2011 which included an appropriation for the MRC, and Canterbury Park resumed all operations on July 21, 2011. The suspension of operations until July 21, 2011 is expected to have a material, adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations for the quarter ending September 30, 2011, as well as on its fiscal year results as compared to the same periods in 2010.

ITEM 2:	MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) is intended to help the reader understand Canterbury Park Holding Corporation, our operations, financial results, and present business environment. This MD&A is provided as a supplement to – and should be read in conjunction with – our condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes to the financial statements (the “Notes”).

Overview:

Canterbury Park Holding Corporation (the “Company”) owns and operates the Canterbury Park Racetrack and Card Casino in Shakopee, Minnesota (the “Racetrack”). The primary businesses of the Company are simulcast and live pari-mutuel horse racing, hosting unbanked card games, and food and beverage operations.

The Racetrack is the only pari-mutuel thoroughbred and quarter horse racing facility in the State of Minnesota. The Racetrack earns revenues from pari-mutuel take-out on races simulcast year-round to Canterbury Park from racetracks throughout the country and from live race meets featuring thoroughbred and quarter horse racing. Live race meets commence in the month of May and conclude in early September. During live race meets, the Company televises its races to out-of-state racetracks around the country, and earns additional pari-mutuel revenue on wagers placed on its races at the out-of-state racetracks.

The Card Casino at Canterbury Park hosts “unbanked” card games in which players compete against each other and not against the house. The Card Casino is open twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week. Under Minnesota law, the Company is required to pay up to 14% of the gross Card Casino revenues to the Racetrack’s purse fund and the State of Minnesota Breeders’ Fund.

The Company also generates revenues from other activities such as parking and admission fees and from the sale of food and beverage, programs and other racing publications, and corporate sponsorships. Additional revenues are derived from the use of the Racetrack facilities for special events such as concerts, craft shows and other events.

Operations Review for the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2011 and June 30, 2010:

The following table sets forth a reconciliation of net income, a GAAP financial measure, to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA (each defined below), which are non-GAAP measures, for the periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2010:


	June 30, 2011			June 30, 2010
Net loss	$	(137,501	)	$	(1,020,610	)
Interest income, net of interest expense		(2,030	)		(4,424	)
Income tax expense (benefit)		751,000			(300,200	)
Depreciation		937,230			987,975
EBITDA	$	1,548,699		$	(337,259	)
Loss on disposal of assets		—			909,540
Adjusted EBITDA	$	1,548,699		$	572,281

EBITDA represents earnings before interest income, income tax expense, and depreciation and amortization. EBITDA is not a measure of performance or liquidity calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), and should not be considered an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income as an indicator of our operating performance, or cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity. EBITDA has been presented as a supplemental disclosure because it is a widely used measure of performance and basis for valuation of companies in our industry. Moreover, other companies that provide EBITDA information may calculate EBITDA differently than we do. Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA plus material, one-time non-cash expenses. During the six-months ended June 30, 2010, this represented the expense incurred in disposing of assets in connection with the renovation of our card room.

Table of Contents

Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of net revenues increased significantly to 7.8% for the first six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to 3.0% for the first six months ended June 30, 2010.

Total net revenues increased $730,838, or 3.8%, during the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2010, and increased $211,641, or 1.8%, for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2010. The six month variance was due primarily to a reduction of 4.2% in pari-mutuel revenues and an increase in Card Casino revenues of 7.4% for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to the same period in the prior year. The three month variance was due primarily to a reduction of 2.2% in pari-mutuel revenues and an increase in Card Casino revenues of 2.4% for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to the same period in the prior year. See below for a further discussion of revenue.

On-Track Average Daily Handle
Simulcast only racing days	$	87,497	$	90,474
Live and simulcast racing days	$	335,818	$	319,440

Pari-mutuel revenues decreased $205,530, or 4.2%, in the six-month period ended June 30, 2011 compared to the same period in 2010, and decreased $68,249, or 2.2%, for the three-month period ended June 30, 2011 compared to the same period in 2010. Total handle wagered for the first half of 2011 was down $760,000, or 2.9%, compared to the same period last year. Minnesota experienced one of the snowiest winters on record which discouraged customers from coming to the track and wagering. Similar harsh weather in other parts of the United States caused the cancellation of a significant number of races at racetracks simulcasting their signal to our racetrack. Additionally, the Company had three fewer live race days in 2011, which further contributed to a decrease in handle. Finally, the Company believes that the sluggish economic recovery and an increasing number of Minnesota residents unlawfully wagering on horse races over the Internet adversely affected pari-mutuel revenues.

Summary of Card Casino Data:


	Six Months Ended June 30,
	2011		2010
Poker Games	$	5,237,000	$	5,703,000
Table Games		5,367,000		4,293,000

Number of Days Offered		181		181
Average Revenue per Day	$	64,829	$	60,370

Total Card Casino revenue increased $806,550, or 7.4%, for the first six months of 2011 and $143,156, or 2.4%, for the second quarter of 2011 compared to the same periods in 2010. The primary source of Card Casino revenue is a percentage of the wagers received from the players as compensation for providing the Card Casino facility and services, referred to as the “collection revenue.” Other revenue includes fees collected for the administration of tournaments, and amounts earned as reimbursement of the administrative costs of maintaining jackpot funds. Poker collection revenue fell $466,042, or 8.2%, compared to the first six months of 2010, and also decreased $311,157, or 10.6%, for the quarter ended June 30 compared to the same period in 2010. The Company believes that the decrease is largely attributable to the sluggish economic recovery that has adversely impacted discretionary spending on entertainment, harsh winter weather in the first quarter, and the large number of 2010 promotions offered to highlight our new Card Casino. Despite the negative factors noted above, table games collection revenue increased $1,074,137, or 25.0%, compared to the first half of 2010 and $346,886, or 13.6%, for the quarter ended June 30 compared to the same period in 2010. The Company believes its new Card Casino, which provides both an exciting and inviting atmosphere, has sparked an increase in table games card play by patrons. Total Card Casino revenues represented 58.7% and 52.5% of net revenues for the six-month and three-month periods ended June 30, 2011, respectively. The three-month percentage is usually lower in the second quarter of any calendar year due to substantially increased revenue from live racing.

Concession revenues remained relatively unchanged compared to the first six months and second quarter of 2010, decreasing $2,495, or 0.1%, and increasing $14,282, or 0.9%, respectively.

Total operating expenses decreased $1,205,865, or 5.9%, and $298,400, or 2.5%, for the six-month and three-month periods ended June 30, 2011, respectively, compared to the same period in the prior year. See below for a further discussion of operating expenses.

Summary of Purse and Breeders’ Fund Expense:


	Purse Expense				Minnesota Breeders’ Fund Expense

	$	2,588,000	$	2,529,000	$	376,000	$	370,000

Total expense for statutory purses and the Minnesota Breeders’ Fund increased 2.2% to $2,964,086 for the first six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to the first six months ended June 30, 2010. The increase was due primarily to increased Card Casino revenue during the first half of 2011 compared to the first half of 2010.

Salaries and benefits decreased $391,384, or 4.3%, in the 2011 six-month period ended June 30 and $261,270, or 5.1%, in the three-month period ended June 30, 2011 compared to the same periods last year. The decrease is primarily due to the fact that increased Card Casino wages were more than offset by reductions in administration and concessions labor.

A loss on disposal of assets in the amount of $909,540 was recorded during the first six months of 2010 and related primarily to the remodeling of our existing card room. There was no loss on disposal of assets during the three or six-month periods ended June 30, 2011.

Other operating expenses increased $284,381, or 8.5%, in the 2011 six-month period ended June 30, 2011 and $51,706, or 2.4%, in the three-month period ended June 30, 2011 compared to the same periods last year. The increase is primarily due to increased expenditures in support of legislation that would authorize electronic gaming devices at the Racetrack.

Income before income taxes was $613,499 for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to a loss before income taxes of $1,320,810 for the six months ended June 30, 2010. After income tax expense of $751,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Company reported a net loss of $137,501 in 2011 compared to a net loss of $1,020,610 in 2010. For the quarter ended June 30, 2011, the Company recorded a net loss of $24,822 before income tax expense compared to a loss before income tax benefit of $534,369 for the quarter ended June 30, 2010. After income tax expense of $323,234, the net loss in the second quarter of 2011 was $348,056 compared to a net loss of $380,969 for the second quarter of 2010. The significant level of income taxes estimated for the second quarter and six-month periods ending June 30, 2011 is due to a revision to our expected income for 2011 and the non-deductibility of lobbying expenses incurred in the Company’s effort to gain approval for legislation that would authorize electronic gaming devices to be operated at the Racetrack.

Contingencies:

There have been no material changes in the contingencies reported under Item 7 in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for our year ended December 31, 2010 and such information is incorporated herein by reference.

Liquidity and Capital Resources:

Cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2011 was $3,046,371 and was the result of several factors. Depreciation during the first six months of 2010 was $937,230, and the Company experienced an increase in accounts payable and accrued wages and payroll taxes of $3,011,184, caused primarily by a seasonal increase of $1.33 million in horsemen payables. These items were somewhat offset by a net loss of $137,501 and an increase in restricted cash of $1,329,973, resulting primarily from the increase in horsemen payables of $1.33 million. Cash provided by operating activities during the six month period ended June 30, 2010 was $2,151,718 and was the result of several factors. During the first quarter of 2010, the Company incurred a one-time loss on disposal of assets in the amount of $909,540 relating to the remodel of our card room. In addition, depreciation during the first six months of 2010 was $987,975, and the Company experienced an increase in accounts payable and accrued wages and payroll taxes of $3,303,004, caused primarily by a seasonal increase of $1.73 million in horsemen payables. These items were somewhat offset by a net loss of $1,020,610 and an increase in restricted cash of $1,857,736, resulting primarily from the increase in horsemen payables of $1.73 million.

Net cash used in investing activities for the first six months of 2011 was $418,035 due to purchasing a variety of fixtures and equipment for operational purposes. Net cash used in investing activities for the first six months of 2010 was $2,593,215 due primarily to costs to remodel our card room totaling approximately $2,271,000.

During the period January 1, 2011 through June 30, 2011, cash provided by financing activities consisted of proceeds and excess tax benefits received upon the exercise of stock options of $225,495. During the six month period ended June 30, 2010, cash provided by financing activities consisted of proceeds and excess tax benefits received upon the exercise of stock options of $35,365.

The Company has a general credit agreement with Bremer Bank, which provides a revolving credit line of up to $3,000,000 until May 6, 2012 with interest at the prime rate but not less than 4.5% per annum. The Company had no borrowings under the line of credit at June 30, 2011 or December 31, 2010. This credit agreement contains covenants requiring the Company to maintain certain financial ratios. The Company was in compliance with these requirements at all times throughout the quarter ended June 30, 2011.

Unrestricted cash balances at June 30, 2011 were $8,305,293 compared to $5,451,462 at December 31, 2010. The Company believes that funds available in its cash accounts, amounts available under the general credit and security agreement, along with funds generated from operations, will be sufficient to satisfy its liquidity and capital resource requirements during 2011 for regular operations.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates:

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. We base our assumptions, estimates and judgments on historical experience, current trends and other factors that management believes to be relevant at the time the consolidated financial statements are prepared. On a regular basis, management reviews the accounting policies, assumptions, estimates and judgments to ensure that our financial statements are presented fairly and in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. However, because future events and their effects cannot be determined with certainty, actual results could differ from our assumptions and estimates, and such differences could be material.

Our significant accounting policies are included in Note 1 to our consolidated financial statements in our 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K. We believe the following critical accounting policies affect our more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements.

Property and Equipment - We have significant capital invested in our property and equipment, which represents approximately 63.8% of our total assets at June 30, 2011. We utilize our judgment in various ways including: determining whether an expenditure is considered a maintenance expense or a capital asset; determining the estimated useful lives of assets; and determining if or when an asset has been impaired or has been disposed. Management periodically reviews the carrying value of property and equipment for potential impairment by comparing the carrying value of these assets with their related expected future net cash flows. If the sum of the related expected future net cash flows is less than the carrying value, we will determine whether an impairment loss should be recognized. An impairment loss would be measured by the amount by which the carrying value of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. To date, we have determined that no impairment of these assets exists.

Stock Based Employee Compensation – ASC 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”), requires recognition of employee services provided in exchange for a share-based payment based on the grant date fair market value. We utilize our judgment in determining the assumptions used to determine the fair value of options granted using a Black-Scholes model.

Commitments and Contractual Obligations:

There have been no material changes in our outstanding commitments and contractual obligations since those reported at December 31, 2010.

Suspension of Operations July 1 to July 21, 2011:

Effective at midnight on June 30, 2011, the Company suspended all of its gaming operations. This action stemmed from the inability of Minnesota’s Governor and Legislature to reach agreement on the State’s budget for the biennium beginning July 1, 2011. The inability to reach an agreement forced many state agencies to immediately shut down because no monies had been appropriated for their operations. The Minnesota Racing Commission (“MRC”), the agency which regulates Canterbury Park’s pari-mutuel and Card Casino gaming operations, was one of the many state agencies ordered to close, and, without this regulatory oversight, the Company was directed to cease gaming operations pending the appropriation of funds for the MRC. Eventually, a budget agreement was approved on July 20, 2011 which included an appropriation for the MRC, and Canterbury Park resumed all operations on July 21, 2011. The suspension of operations for the first 20 days of July is expected to have a material, adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations for the quarter ending September 30, 2011, as well as on its fiscal year results as compared to the same periods in 2010.

Legislation:

The Company supported legislation introduced in the 2011 session of the Minnesota Legislature that would authorize slot machines and other video lottery terminals to be operated at the Racetrack (a business model that is generally called a “Racino”). Based on the success of Racinos in several other states, we continue to believe that if a Racino was authorized at the Racetrack on similar terms to legislation approved in other states, it would stimulate economic growth in the horse racing and related agriculture businesses in Minnesota, provide growth and development opportunities that would add jobs at the Racetrack and surrounding community, and provide new revenues for state and local governments facing significant budgetary challenges. No action was taken in either the regular session of the Minnesota Legislature ending in May 2011, or the special session that was held in July 2011, regarding the Racino proposal.

The Company’s efforts to obtain legislative approval for a Racino have required, and will continue to require, substantial expenditures. Due to the inherent uncertainty of the outcome of legislative activities, there can be no assurance that any bills favorable to the Company’s interests will be enacted into law, and it is possible bills adverse to the Company could be enacted.

Forward-Looking Statements:

From time to time, in reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, in press releases, and in other communications to shareholders or the investing public, the Company may make forward-looking statements concerning possible or anticipated future financial performance, business activities or plans which are typically preceded by the words “believes,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “intends” or similar expressions. For such forward-looking statements, the Company claims the protection of the safe harbor for forward-looking statements contained in federal securities laws. Shareholders and the investing public should understand that such forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties which could cause actual performance, activities or plans to differ significantly from those indicated in the forward-looking statements. Such risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to: fluctuations in attendance at the Racetrack, material changes in the level of wagering by patrons, decline in interest in the unbanked card games offered in the Card Casino, legislative and regulatory changes, the impact of wagering products and technologies introduced by competitors; increases in the percentage of revenues allocated for purse fund payments; increase in compensation and employee benefit costs; the economic health of the gaming sector; higher than expected expense related to new marketing initiatives; and other factors discussed under Item 1A in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 and in the Company’s other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
