estimates that total consolidated revenue will be in the range of <span class=\"xn-money\">$258<\/span> to <span class=\"xn-money\">$268 million<\/span>, with Adjusted EBITDA in the range of <span class=\"xn-money\">$80<\/span> to <span class=\"xn-money\">$84 million<\/span>.\u00a0 This is compared to total consolidated revenue of <span class=\"xn-money\">$28.9 million<\/span> and Adjusted EBITDA of negative <span class=\"xn-money\">$10.7 million<\/span> for the second quarter of 2020. <\/p>\n<p>As a result of better than expected operating performance at its land-based retail casinos and interactive businesses, <span class=\"xn-location\">Bally&#8217;s<\/span> does not plan to issue incremental common equity or draw on the previously disclosed Gaming and Leisure Properties, Inc. commitment to fund the Gamesys acquisition. \u00a0Bally&#8217;s continues to evaluate investment options with potential strategic partners and such investment is not necessary to fund the Gamesys acquisition.<\/p>\n<p>Consistent with U.K. regulatory requirements, <span class=\"xn-location\">Bally&#8217;s<\/span> arranged bridge financing for the Gamesys transaction from Deutsche Bank AG, <span class=\"xn-location\">London<\/span> Branch, Goldman Sachs <span class=\"xn-location\">USA<\/span> and Barclays Bank PLC.\u00a0 <span class=\"xn-location\">Bally&#8217;s<\/span> intends to seek to refinance the bridge facility and its and Gamesys&#8217; debt through one or more capital market transactions, which are currently expected to include public or private bond offerings and a company-wide bank credit facility. <\/p>\n<p>Closing of the Gamesys transaction, which is subject to customary conditions including regulatory approval, is expected to take place during the fourth quarter of 2021. \u00a0Relevant documentation can be found at <a target=\"_blank\"

     <span class=\"xn-location\">Bally&#8217;s<\/span> actual operating results remain subject to the completion of its quarter-end closing process, which includes review by management, its audit committee and its independent auditor.\u00a0 While carrying out such procedures, <span class=\"xn-location\">Bally&#8217;s<\/span> may identify items that would require it to make adjustments to the preliminary estimates of its revenue and Adjusted EBITDA set forth above.\u00a0 As a result, <span class=\"xn-location\">Bally&#8217;s<\/span> actual revenue and Adjusted EBITDA could be different than the expectation set forth and such differences could be material.\u00a0 Additionally, <span class=\"xn-location\">Bally&#8217;s<\/span> estimates of revenue and Adjusted EBITDA are forward-looking statements based solely on information available as of the date of this release and may differ materially from its actual operating results as a result of developments that occur after the date of this release.\u00a0 Therefore, you should not place undue reliance on these preliminary estimates.\u00a0 See &#8220;Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\n        <b>Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures<\/b>\n      <\/p>\n<p>\n        <span class=\"xn-location\">Bally&#8217;s<\/span> has included Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, in this press release.<\/p>\n<p>Adjusted EBITDA is earnings, or loss, for <span class=\"xn-location\">Bally&#8217;s<\/span> before interest expense, net of interest income, (benefit) provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization, non-operating income, acquisition, integration and restructuring expense, goodwill and asset impairment, expansion and pre-opening expenses, share-based compensation, rebranding, change in fair value of naming rights liabilities, gain on bargain purchases, professional and advisory fees associated with capital return program, CARES Act credit, credit agreement amendment expenses, storm related losses, net of insurance recoveries, Bet.Works and Sinclair, sports and iGaming licensing, and certain other gains or losses.<\/p>\n<p>\n        <span class=\"xn-location\">Bally&#8217;s<\/span> management has historically used Adjusted EBITDA when evaluating operating performance because <span class=\"xn-location\">Bally&#8217;s<\/span> believes that the inclusion or exclusion of certain recurring and non-recurring items is necessary to provide a full understanding of <span class=\"xn-location\">Bally&#8217;s<\/span> core operating results and as a means to evaluate period-to-period performance. \u00a0Management also believes that Adjusted EBITDA is a measure that is widely used for evaluating operating performance of companies in <span class=\"xn-location\">Bally&#8217;s<\/span> industry and a principal basis for valuing resort and gaming companies like <span class=\"xn-location\">Bally&#8217;s<\/span>. \u00a0Management of <span class=\"xn-location\">Bally&#8217;s<\/span> believes that while certain items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA may be recurring in nature and should not be disregarded in evaluating <span class=\"xn-location\">Bally&#8217;s<\/span> earnings performance, it is useful to exclude such items when comparing current performance to prior periods because these items can vary significantly depending on specific underlying transactions or events that may not be comparable between the periods presented or they may not relate specifically to current operating trends or be indicative of future results. \u00a0Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an alternative to GAAP net income as an indicator of <span class=\"xn-location\">Bally&#8217;s<\/span> performance. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA as used by <span class=\"xn-location\">Bally&#8217;s<\/span> may not be defined in the same manner as other companies in <span class=\"xn-location\">Bally&#8217;s<\/span> industry, and, as a result, may not be comparable to similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures of other companies.<\/p>\n<p>Net income or loss is the most closely comparable GAAP measure to Adjusted EBITDA. \u00a0The table below reconciles net loss to Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended <span class=\"xn-chron\">June 30, 2020<\/span>. \u00a0Bally&#8217;s is unable to present net income for the three months ended <span class=\"xn-chron\">June 30, 2021<\/span> at this time without unreasonable effort or expense given that, among other things, <span class=\"xn-location\">Bally&#8217;s<\/span> is in the process of its quarterly closing procedures.<\/p>\n<div>\n<table cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" border=\"1\" class=\"prntblns\">\n<tr>\n<td
