MOHEGAN ANNOUNCES FIRST QUARTER FISCAL 2026 OPERATING RESULTS

UNCASVILLE, Conn., Feb. 12, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Mohegan Tribal Gaming Authority ("Mohegan," "we" or "our") today announced operating results for its first fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2025.

First Quarter 2026 and Recent Highlights:

• Mohegan Sun generated its highest Q1 net slot win since FY'18.
• Mohegan Digital achieved its highest ever quarterly net revenues and Adjusted EBITDA.
• Mohegan Digital monthly active users at an all-time high.
• Mohegan Digital Adjusted EBITDA increased 44.5% year over year.

"Adjusted EBITDAR of $95.3 million increased 2.4% on flat net revenues. Results were largely driven by Mohegan Digital delivering its strongest quarterly performance to date. Adjusted EBITDA of $86.4 million decreased $3.1 million, as the prior year comparable period benefitted from favorable table hold at Mohegan Sun and a one-time property tax adjustment at Niagara Resorts. After normalizing for these factors, Adjusted EBITDA would have been up $4.8 million, or 5.9%," said Ari Glazer, Chief Financial Officer of Mohegan.

Prior period amounts have been restated to exclude results of operations of Inspire Integrated Resort Co., Ltd., its parent company MGE Korea Limited, and certain affected subsidiaries, from continuing operations.

Net revenues of $300.0 million decreased $12.0 million compared with the prior-year period. Entertainment revenues declined as a result of fewer arena events in the current period, while the prior-year comparable period benefitted from favorable table hold at Mohegan Sun and $6.6 million of net revenues from Las Vegas operations. Adjusted EBITDA of $64.8 million decreased $9.8 million compared with the prior-year period, factoring in the previously described items.

Net revenues of $72.2 million increased $19.1 million compared with the prior-year period. Adjusted EBITDA of $36.2 million increased $11.2 million compared with the prior year period. Mohegan Digital generated its highest ever quarterly net revenues and Adjusted EBITDA, as our Connecticut operations achieved their strongest performance to date. Our Pennsylvania and Ontario operations also produced their highest quarterly net revenues to date.

Net revenues of $65.5 million decreased $6.7 million compared with the prior-year period. Adjusted EBITDA of $1.1 million decreased $7.2 million compared with the prior-year period. The decline in net revenues is primarily attributed to lower gaming volumes compared with the prior-year period. Adjusted EBITDA in the comparable prior-year period benefitted from a favorable one-time property tax adjustment.

Net revenues of $3.8 million decreased $1.3 million compared with the prior-year period. Adjusted EBITDA loss of $15.7 million was $2.8 million favorable compared with the prior-year period. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA is primarily attributed to labor savings in the current period related to our recent workforce reduction. Net income in the current-year period includes a $102.0 million non-cash gain from discontinued operations related to derecognized Mohegan INSPIRE guarantee liabilities.

RECONCILIATION OF NON-US GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDAR Explanation:

Net income before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, or EBITDA, and EBITDA before rent expense arising from real estate leases, or EBITDAR, are commonly used measures of performance in the casino and hospitality industry. EBITDA and EBITDAR are not measures of performance calculated in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("US GAAP"). Mohegan historically has evaluated its operating performance with the non-GAAP measure Adjusted EBITDA, which as used in this press release, primarily represents EBITDA further adjusted to exclude certain non-cash and other items as exhibited in the following reconciliation.

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDAR provide additional ways to evaluate Mohegan's operations and, when viewed with both Mohegan's GAAP results and the reconciliation provided, Mohegan believes that Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDAR provide a more complete understanding of its financial performance than could be otherwise obtained absent this disclosure. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDAR are presented solely as a supplemental disclosure because: (1) Mohegan believes it enhances an overall understanding of Mohegan's past and current financial performance; (2) Mohegan believes it is a useful tool for investors to assess the operating performance of the business in comparison to other operators within the casino and hospitality industry because Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDAR exclude certain items that may not be indicative of Mohegan's operating results; (3) measures that are comparable to Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDAR are often used as an important basis for the valuation of casino and hospitality companies; and (4) Mohegan uses Adjusted EBITDA internally to evaluate the performance of its operating personnel and management, and uses Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDAR as benchmarks to evaluate its operating performance in comparison to its competitors.

The use of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDAR has certain limitations. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDAR should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for or superior to, any US GAAP financial measure including net income (as an indicator of Mohegan's performance) or cash flows provided by operating activities (as an indicator of Mohegan's liquidity), nor should they be considered as an indicator of Mohegan's overall financial performance. Mohegan's calculation of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDAR is likely to be different from the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDAR, or other similarly titled measurements, used by other casino and hospitality companies and, therefore, comparability may be limited. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDAR eliminate certain items from net income, such as interest, depreciation and amortization, and rent expense that are items that have been incurred in the past and will continue to be incurred in the future and, therefore, should be considered in the overall evaluation of Mohegan's results.  Mohegan compensates for these limitations by providing relevant disclosures of items excluded in the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDAR, both in its reconciliation to the US GAAP financial measure of net income and in its consolidated financial statements, all of which should be considered when evaluating its results. Mohegan strongly encourages investors to review its financial information in its entirety and not to rely on a single financial measure.
