(1)  The guidance figures in the tables above present the guidance provided on October 28, 2014, for the three months and year ended December 31, 2014.

(2)  Adjusted EBITDA is net income excluding interest, taxes on income, depreciation, (gains) or losses from sales of property, and stock based compensation expense.

(3)  Funds from operations (FFO) is net income, excluding (gains) or losses from sales of property and real estate depreciation.

(4)  Adjusted funds from operations (AFFO) is FFO, excluding stock based compensation expense, debt issuance costs amortization and other depreciation reduced by maintenance capital expenditures.

(5) The results for the three months and year ended December 31, 2013, reflect a full three months and year of operations for the continuing businesses in the taxable REIT subsidiaries and a partial year from November 1, 2013 to December 31, 2013 for the real estate entity.
 
Gaming and Leisure Properties, Inc. Chief Executive Officer, Peter M. Carlino commented, “With $140 million of capital deployed in the Casino Queen acquisition and the delivery of two development projects representing $190 million in Ohio, I am pleased with the progress we’ve made in our first full year as a real estate investment trust.  Additionally, we were able to demonstrate our ability to grow our revenue with the additional rent earned from the activation of a portion of our rent escalator in our Master Lease with Penn. On a macro level, near-term trends in regional gaming are encouraging.”

Mr. Carlino continued, “Looking ahead, we will look to grow our portfolio of gaming assets in the coming year by leveraging our strong balance sheet and our deep industry knowledge and relationships. Given our significant alignment with shareholders, we will remain disciplined and selective in our evaluation of opportunities and committed to enhancing cash flow and creating value over the long term.”

Financial Update
 
Gaming and Leisure Properties reported FFO of $66.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2014. Net revenue for the three months ended December 31, 2014 was $159.0 million. The Company produced net income of $44.2 million for the three months ended December 31, 2014, or $0.38 per diluted common share. Results for the three months ended December 31, 2014 include approximately $2.4 million of compensation expense related to the $0.40 one-time dividend discussed below. This additional compensation expense contributed to the Company's lower net income, FFO and AFFO as compared to previously issued guidance, offset by stronger than expected operating results at the Company's Perryville and Baton Rouge properties (the “TRS properties”), additional variable rent from Toledo and Columbus and the Penn rent escalator.

When reviewing the Company's financial results it should be noted that financial results for the Company's 2014 fiscal year reflect a full year of operations for both operating segments, whereas financial results for the Company's 2013 fiscal year reflect a full year of operations for the continuing businesses in the taxable REIT subsidiaries and a partial year from November 1, 2013 to December 31, 2013 for the real estate entity.

Portfolio Update
 
GLPI owns approximately 3,111 acres of land and 7.2 million square feet of building space, which was 100% occupied as of December 31, 2014. At the end of the fourth quarter of 2014, the Company owns the real estate associated with 21 casino facilities and leases 18 of these facilities to Penn National Gaming, Inc. (PENN) and one to Casino Queen in East St. Louis, Illinois. Two of the gaming facilities, located in Baton Rouge, Louisiana and Perryville, Maryland, are owned and operated by a subsidiary (GLP Holdings, Inc.) of GLPI.

In November 2013, the Company entered into a “triple-net” lease with Penn, in which substantially all of Penn's former real property assets were leased back to Penn (the “Master Lease”). Following the completion of the first fiscal year of the Master Lease, the 1.8:1 rent coverage ratio required under the Master Lease for annual rent increases was exceeded. However, as the ratio achieved was not sufficient to support the entire rent escalator, commencing in November 2014, the base rental revenue the Company receives from Penn was increased by 1.3% or $3.2 million annually.

Capital project expenditures, which totaled $14.7 million and $139.2 million for the three months and year ended December 31, 2014, respectively, primarily related to the Company's two joint development properties with Penn. Mahoning Valley Race Course and Dayton Raceway both opened and began paying rent during the third quarter of 2014. Total project expenditures for Mahoning Valley Race Course and Dayton Raceway were $100 million and $89.5 million, respectively, which was in line with the planned budget for each site. Property maintenance capex at the TRS properties was $1.4 million and $1.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. 
  
Acquisitions
 
In May 2014, the Company announced that it had entered into an agreement with Cannery Casino Resorts LLC (“CCR”) to acquire The Meadows Racetrack and Casino located in Washington, Pennsylvania, a suburb of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. On October 27, 2014, the Company filed a lawsuit against CCR alleging, among other things, fraud, breach of the Membership Interest Purchase Agreement and breach of a related Consulting Agreement, which was subsequently re-filed in New York state court for procedural reasons on January 7, 2015. The Company is seeking an unspecified amount of damages. While the Company has completed and submitted the information required for its gaming and racing applications to the Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board and the Pennsylvania Racing Commission, the timing and resolution of the claims set forth in the lawsuit are unpredictable, and the Company is not able to predict any effect this suit may have on closing of the transaction. Given the filing of the lawsuit, the Company will not be in a position to provide additional commentary on the Meadows transaction at the present time.

Dividends
 
On November 18, 2014, the Company’s Board of Directors declared the fourth quarter dividend.  Shareholders of record on December 2, 2014 received $0.92 per common share, which was paid on December 19, 2014. The $0.92 per share dividend included a regular quarterly dividend of $0.52 per share and a one-time dividend of $0.40 per share. The one-time dividend is related to distributions to ensure the Company appropriately allocated its historical Earnings and Profits relative to the separation from Penn, in response to the Pre-Filing Agreement requested from the Internal Revenue Service and distributed 100% of its taxable income for the 2014 year. The Company declared its 2015 first quarter dividend of $0.545 per common share, payable on March 27, 2015 to shareholders of record on March 10, 2015.

Disclosure Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures
 
Funds From Operations (“FFO”), Adjusted Funds From Operations (“AFFO”) and Adjusted EBITDA, which are detailed in the reconciliation tables that accompany this release, are used by the Company as performance measures for benchmarking against the Company’s peers and as internal measures of business operating performance. The Company believes FFO, AFFO, and Adjusted EBITDA provide a meaningful perspective of the underlying operating performance of the Company’s current business.  This is especially true since these measures exclude real estate depreciation, and we believe that real estate values fluctuate based on market conditions rather than depreciating in value ratably on a straight-line basis over time.
 
FFO, AFFO and Adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures, that are considered a supplemental measure for the real estate industry and a supplement to GAAP measures. NAREIT defines FFO as net income (computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles), excluding (gains) or losses from sales of property and real estate depreciation.  We have defined AFFO as FFO excluding stock based compensation expense, debt issuance costs amortization and other depreciation reduced by maintenance capital expenditures. Finally, we have defined Adjusted EBITDA as net income excluding interest, taxes on income, management fees, depreciation, (gains) or losses from sales of property, and stock based compensation expense.
 
FFO, AFFO and Adjusted EBITDA are not recognized terms under GAAP.  Because certain companies do not calculate FFO, AFFO, and Adjusted EBITDA in the same way and certain other companies may not perform such calculation, those measures as used by other companies may not be consistent with the way the Company calculates such measures and should not be considered as alternative measures of operating profit or net income. The Company’s presentation of these measures does not replace the presentation of the Company’s financial results in accordance with GAAP.
