CHURCHILL DOWNS INCORPORATED ANNOUNCES
CHANGE TO NON-GAAP EXTERNAL REPORTING MEASURE
LOUISVILLE, Ky. (February 16, 2017) - Churchill Downs Incorporated (NASDAQ: CHDN) (CDI or Company) today announced the Company will be updating its definition of Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP reporting measure, for external reporting purposes. This change will be made on a prospective basis beginning with our fourth quarter 2016 and full year 2016 business results which will be released following the close of business on February 28, 2017.
After consideration of the Securities and Exchange Commission's updated Compliance & Disclosure Interpretations from May 2016, related to the use of publicly reported non-GAAP financial measures, CDI has decided to exclude changes in Big Fish Games deferred revenue in our computation of Adjusted EBITDA. This is only a change in external non-GAAP financial reporting and has no effect on the Company's business and the Company is not restating any of its prior financial results.
For comparative purposes, please refer to the attached supplemental information which provides quarterly Adjusted EBITDA amounts, as previously defined, compared to the Company's updated definition. Big Fish Games is the only segment impacted for segment reporting purposes.

1During 2016, we updated our definition of Adjusted EBITDA to exclude depreciation and amortization from our equity investments. The prior year amounts were reclassified to conform to this presentation.
Non-GAAP Measures
In addition to the results provided in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), the Company also uses non-GAAP measures, including EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) and Adjusted EBITDA (“Adjusted EBITDA”).
Adjusted EBITDA includes:
• | CDI's portion of the EBITDA from our equity investments |
Adjusted EBITDA excludes:
• | Acquisition expense, net which includes: |
◦ | Acquisition-related charges, including fair value adjustments related to earnouts and deferred payments; and |
◦ | Transaction expense, including legal, accounting, and other deal-related expense |
• | Stock-based compensation expense; |
• | Calder exit costs; and |
• | Other charges and recoveries |
The Company uses Adjusted EBITDA as a key performance measure of the results of operations for purposes of evaluating performance internally. The measure facilitates comparison of operating performance between periods and helps investors to better understand the operating results of CDI by excluding certain items that may not be indicative of the Company's core business or operating results. 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. Adjusted EBITDA is a supplemental measure of our performance that is not required by or presented in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income (as determined in accordance with GAAP) as a measure of our operating results.
