Contents BOYD GAMING CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 and for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 ______________________________________________________________________________________________________ NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Organization Boyd Gaming Corporation (and together with its subsidiaries, the "Company," "Boyd," "Boyd Gaming," "we" or "us") was incorporated in the state of Nevada in 1988 and has been operating since 1975. The Company's common stock is traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol "BYD". We are a geographically diversified operator of 28 wholly owned brick-and-mortar gaming entertainment properties ("gaming entertainment properties"). Headquartered in Las Vegas, Nevada, we have gaming operations in Nevada, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, Ohio and Pennsylvania. In addition, we own and operate Boyd Interactive, a business-to-business ( "B2B" ) and business-to-consumer ( "B2C" ) online gaming business. We also manage the Sky River Casino located in California under a management agreement with Wilton Rancheria. Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to the Quarterly Report on Form 10 -Q and Article 10 of Regulation S- X and, therefore, do not include all information and footnote disclosures necessary for complete financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes for the year ended December 31, 2023 , as filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on February 26, 2024. The results for the periods indicated are unaudited but reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, that management considers necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash flows. Results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the results that would be achieved during a full year of operations or in future periods. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. Investments in unconsolidated affiliates, which are 50% or less owned and do not meet the controlling financial interest consolidation criteria of the authoritative accounting guidance for voting interest or variable interest entities, are accounted for under the equity method. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include highly liquid investments, which include cash on hand and in banks, interest-bearing deposits and money market funds with maturities of three months or less at their date of purchase. The instruments are not restricted as to withdrawal or use and are on deposit with high credit quality financial institutions. Although these balances may at times exceed the federal insured deposit limit, we believe such risk is mitigated by the quality of the institution holding such deposit. The carrying values of these instruments approximate their fair values as such balances are generally available on demand. Restricted Cash Restricted cash consists primarily of: (i) amounts restricted by regulation for gaming and racing purposes; (ii) amounts restricted by regulation for the value in players' online casino gaming accounts; and (iii) advance payments received for future bookings with our Hawaiian travel agency. These restricted cash balances are invested in highly liquid instruments with a maturity of 90 days or less. These restricted cash balances are held by high credit quality financial institutions. The carrying values of these instruments approximate their fair values due to their short maturities. The following table provides a reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash balances reported within the condensed consolidated balance sheets to the total balance shown in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.

A contract is or contains a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period in exchange for consideration. Control over the use of the identified asset means the lessee has both (a) the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from the use of the asset and (b) the right to direct the use of the asset. Operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the remaining lease payments, discounted using the discount rate for the lease at the commencement date. Our lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. For our operating leases for which the rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable, we generally use an incremental borrowing rate based on information available at the commencement date to determine the present value of future lease payments. The incremental borrowing rate is determined based on the weighted average incremental borrowing rate at the lease commencement or modification date that is commensurate with the rate of interest in a similar economic environment that we would have to pay to borrow an amount equal to our future lease payments on a collateralized basis over a similar term, including reasonably certain options to extend or terminate. The determination of the incremental borrowing rate could materially impact our lease liabilities. Operating right-of-use ("ROU") assets and finance lease assets are recognized based on the amount of the initial measurement of the lease liability. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Lease and non-lease components are accounted for separately. Revenue Recognition The Company’s revenue contracts with customers consist of gaming wagers (including both those made at our gaming entertainment properties and online B2C wagers), hotel room sales, food & beverage offerings and other amenity transactions. See Collaborative Arrangements below for further discussion of revenues earned under our online collaborative arrangements. The transaction price for a gaming wagering contract is the difference between gaming wins and losses, not the total amount wagered. Cash discounts, commissions and other cash incentives to customers related to gaming play are recorded as a reduction of gaming revenues. The transaction price for hotel, food & beverage and other contracts is the net amount collected from the customer for such goods and services. Hotel, food & beverage and other services have been determined to be separate, stand-alone performance obligations and the transaction price for such contracts is recorded as revenue as the good or service is transferred to the customer over their stay at the hotel, when the delivery is made for the food & beverage or when the service is provided for other amenity transactions. We have established a player loyalty point program to encourage repeat business from frequent and active slot machine customers and other patrons. Members earn points based on gaming activity and such points can be redeemed for complimentary slot play, food & beverage, hotel rooms and other free goods and services. Gaming wager contracts involve two performance obligations for those customers earning points under the Company’s player loyalty program and a single performance obligation for customers who do not participate in the program. The Company applies a practical expedient by accounting for its gaming contracts on a portfolio basis as such wagers have similar characteristics and the Company reasonably expects the effects on the financial statements of applying the revenue recognition guidance to the portfolio to not differ materially from that which would result if applying the guidance to an individual wagering contract. For purposes of allocating the transaction price in a wagering contract between the wagering performance obligation and the obligation associated with the loyalty points earned, the Company allocates an amount to the player loyalty contract liability based on the stand-alone selling price of the points earned, which is determined by the value of a point that can be redeemed for a hotel room stay, food & beverage or other amenities. Sales and usage-based taxes are excluded from revenues. An amount is allocated to the gaming wager performance obligation using the residual approach as the stand-alone price for wagers is highly variable and no set established price exists for such wagers. The allocated revenue for gaming wagers, excluding race and sports wagers, is recognized when the wagers occur as all such wagers settle immediately. The allocated revenue for race and sports wagers is recognized when the specific event or game occurs. The player loyalty contract liability amount is deferred and recognized as revenue when the customer redeems the points for a hotel room stay, food & beverage or other amenities and such goods or services are delivered to the customer. See Note 4, Accrued Liabilities , for the balance outstanding related to the player loyalty program. The Company collects advance deposits from hotel customers for future hotel reservations and other future events such as banquets and ticketed events. These advance deposits represent obligations of the Company until the hotel room stay is provided to the customer or the banquet or ticketed event occurs. See Note 4, Accrued Liabilities , for the balance outstanding related to advance deposits. The Company's outstanding chip liability represents the amounts owed in exchange for gaming chips held by a customer. Outstanding chips are expected to be recognized as revenue or redeemed for cash within one year of being purchased. See Note 4, Accrued Liabilities , for the balance related to outstanding chips. The retail value of hotel accommodations, food & beverage, and other services furnished to guests without charge is recorded as departmental revenues. Gaming revenues are net of incentives earned in our player loyalty program and the estimated retail value of complimentary goods and services provided to customers (such as complimentary rooms and food & beverage). The estimated retail values related to goods and services provided to customers without charge or upon redemption of points under our player loyalty program, included in departmental revenues, and therefore reducing our gaming revenues, are as follows: Three Months Ended March 31, (In thousands) 2024 2023 Food & beverage $ 30,668 $ 28,259 Room 14,672 15,148 Other 2,025 1,876 9 Table of Contents BOYD GAMING CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) — (Continued) as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 and for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 ______________________________________________________________________________________________________ Gaming Taxes We are subject to taxes based on gross gaming revenues in the jurisdictions in which we operate. These gaming taxes are assessed based on our gaming revenues and are recorded in the condensed consolidated statements of operations as a gaming expense for gaming entertainment properties and online expense for Boyd Interactive operations. Gaming taxes recorded as gaming expense totaled approximately $ 126.7 million and $ 130.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 , respectively. Gaming taxes recorded as online expense, excluding taxes paid under collaborative arrangements (see Collaborative Arrangements below for further discussion), totaled $ 2.5 million and $ 0.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 , respectively. Income Taxes Income taxes are recorded under the asset and liability method, whereby deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized based on the future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. We reduce the carrying amounts of deferred tax assets by a valuation allowance if, based on the available evidence, it is more likely than not that such assets will not be realized. Use of the term "more likely than not" indicates the likelihood of occurrence is greater than 50%. Accordingly, the need to establish valuation allowances for deferred tax assets is continually assessed at a minimum quarterly, and as facts and circumstances change, based on a more-likely-than- not realization threshold. This assessment considers, among other matters, the nature, frequency and severity of current and cumulative losses, forecasts of profitability and taxable income, the duration of statutory carryforward periods, our experience with the utilization of operating loss and tax credit carryforwards before expiration and tax planning strategies. In making such judgments, significant weight is given to evidence that can be objectively verified. Other Long-Term Tax Liabilities The Company's income tax returns are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") and other tax authorities in the locations where it operates. The Company assesses potentially unfavorable outcomes of such examinations based on accounting standards for uncertain income taxes, which prescribe a minimum recognition threshold a tax position is required to meet before being recognized in the financial statements. Uncertain tax position accounting standards apply to all tax positions related to income taxes. These accounting standards utilize a two -step approach for evaluating tax positions. Recognition occurs when the Company concludes that a tax position, based on its technical merits, is more likely than not to be sustained upon examination. Measurement is only addressed if the position is deemed to be more likely than not to be sustained. The tax benefit is measured as the largest amount of benefit that is more likely than not to be realized upon settlement. Tax positions failing to qualify for initial recognition are recognized in the first subsequent interim period that they meet the "more likely than not" standard. If it is subsequently determined that a previously recognized tax position no longer meets the "more likely than not" standard, it is required that the tax position is derecognized. Accounting standards for uncertain tax positions specifically prohibit the use of a valuation allowance as a substitute for derecognition of tax positions. As applicable, the Company will recognize accrued penalties and interest related to unrecognized tax benefits in the provision for income taxes. If applicable, accrued interest and penalties are included in other long-term tax liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. Collaborative Arrangements We hold a five percent equity ownership in and have a strategic partnership with FanDuel Group ("FanDuel"), the nation's leading sports-betting operator, to pursue sports-betting opportunities across the country, both at our gaming entertainment properties and online. Subject to state law and regulatory approvals, we have established a presence in the sports wagering industry, both at our gaming entertainment properties and online, by leveraging FanDuel's technology and related services. We offer online sports wagering under the FanDuel brand or under market access agreements with other companies in Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Louisiana, Ohio and Pennsylvania. We also operate sportsbooks under the FanDuel brand at one of our Downtown Las Vegas gaming entertainment properties, our gaming entertainment properties in Mississippi and all of the gaming entertainment properties in the states where we offer online sports wagering. Under our online collaborative arrangements, we receive a revenue share from the third -party operator based on actual wagering wins and losses. The activities under these collaborative arrangements related to online wagering, are recorded in online revenue and online expense on the consolidated statements of operations. The activities under these collaborative arrangements related to sportsbooks at our gaming entertainment properties, are recorded in gaming revenue and gaming expense. Under certain of our collaborative arrangements, we are the primary obligor and are responsible for paying gaming taxes and other license payments owed as the gaming licensee for the related online gaming activities. We are reimbursed for these taxes and other payments by the third -party operators. We report these gaming taxes and other expenses paid as online expense and the reimbursements we receive as online revenues. These taxes and other payments totaled approximately $ 116.0 million and $ 96.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 , respectively. Our five percent equity ownership in FanDuel is recorded at cost in accordance with the measurement alternative allowed under Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 321, Accounting for Investments in Equity Securities . We do not have the ability to exercise significant influence over FanDuel's operating and financial policies. We evaluate the investment for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. We evaluate the recorded value of the investment when any observable price changes in orderly transactions for an identical or similar investment would require an adjustment of the investment to fair value. 10 Table of Contents BOYD GAMING CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) — (Continued) as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 and for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 ______________________________________________________________________________________________________ Currency Translation The Company translates the financial statements of its foreign subsidiary that are not denominated in U.S. dollars. Balance sheet accounts are translated at the exchange rate in effect at each balance sheet date. Income statement accounts are translated at the average rate of exchange prevailing during the period. If a material income statement event occurs, the transaction would be translated at the exchange rate in effect on the date of occurrence. Translation adjustments are recorded in other comprehensive income (loss). Gains or losses from foreign currency transaction remeasurements are recorded as other non-operating income (expense). Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP 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 financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements A variety of proposed or otherwise potential accounting standards are currently being studied by standard-setting organizations and certain regulatory agencies. Because of the tentative and preliminary nature of such proposed standards, we have not yet determined the effect, if any, that the implementation of such proposed standards would have on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Wilton Rancheria Agreements In 2012, the Company entered into a development agreement and a management agreement with Wilton Rancheria. The development agreement obligated us to fund certain pre-development costs to assist Wilton Rancheria in its development and oversight of the gaming facility construction. The pre-development costs financed by us were to be repaid under the terms of a note receivable with Wilton Rancheria bearing interest at 12.5 % with payment timing and the payment amount subject to an excess cash flow waterfall payment prioritization and maintenance of a certain leverage ratio, among other restrictions under Wilton Rancheria’s third -party credit agreement that provided funding for the construction project. Given the significant barriers of the project, a majority of the advances made during the 10 -year period were historically reserved in full when advanced. The Sky River Casino opened on August 15, 2022 and after generating cash flows from operations, we updated our evaluation of expected losses on the note receivable which resulted in a partial release of the allowance during the fourth quarter of 2022. The Wilton Rancheria amended their third -party credit agreement in March 2023 and such amendment effectively allowed Sky River Casino to begin making previously disallowed distributions, under the excess cash flow waterfall. Given the amendment in the first quarter of 2023, the Company updated its evaluation of its expected losses on the note receivable. As the amendment allowed for quarterly payments to begin and given the sustained operating strength of the recently opened property, the Company concluded it expected to receive all payments due under the note receivable. As such, the Company removed the remaining allowance on the note receivable in the first quarter of 2023, which represented a reserve on both the development advances and interest on the note. The allowance reduction was thus allocated accordingly and $ 20.1 million is recorded in project development, preopening and writedowns and $ 14.3 million is recorded in interest income, both reflected in the condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2023 . The Company received $ 0.2 mi llion in principal payments and $ 0.2 million in interest due under the note receivable during the three months ended March 31, 2024 , and $ 17.3 mi llion in principal payments and $ 5.1 million in interest due under the note receivable during the three months ended March 31, 2023 . As of March 31, 2024 , the principal outstanding on the note receivable was fully repaid. Separately, the management agreement provides for us to manage the gaming facility upon opening for a period of seven years and receive a monthly management fee for our services based on the monthly performance of the gaming facility. The management fee of $ 22.2 million and $ 20.0 million for our management services for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 , respectively, is paid monthly and recorded in management fee revenue on the condensed consolidated statements of operations. Commitments As of March 31, 2024 , there have been no material changes to our commitments described under Note 9, Commitments and Contingencies , in our Annual Report on Form 10 -K for the year ended December 31, 2023 , as filed with the SEC on February 26, 2024. Contingencies Legal Matters We are parties to various legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. We believe that all pending claims, if adversely decided, would not have a material effect on our business, financial position, results of operations or cash flows. NOTE 7. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY AND STOCK INCENTIVE PLANS Share Repurchase Program On October 21, 2021, our Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program of $ 300.0 million (the "Share Repurchase Program"). In addition, our Board of Directors authorized increases to the Share Repurchase Program of $ 500.0 million on June 1, 2022, and $ 500.0 million on May 4, 2023. As of March 31, 2024 , $ 220.8 million remains available under the Share Repurchase Program. Under the Share Repurchase Program, the Company may repurchase shares of its common stock from time to time on the open market or in privately negotiated transactions. Repurchases of common stock may also be made under Rule 10b5 - 1 plans, which would permit common stock to be repurchased when the Company might otherwise be precluded from doing so under insider trading laws. We are not obligated to repurchase any shares under this program. The timing, volume and nature of share repurchases will be at the sole discretion of management, dependent on market conditions, applicable securities laws and other factors, and may be suspended or discontinued at any time. The following table provides information regarding share repurchases during the referenced periods ( 1 ) . Three Months Ended March 31, (In thousands, except per share data) 2024 2023 Shares repurchased (2) 1,658 1,726 Total cost, including brokerage fees (3) $ 105,500 $ 106,327 Average repurchase price per share (4) $ 63.62 $ 61.59 ( 1 ) Shares repurchased reflect repurchases settled during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 . These amounts exclude repurchases, if any, traded but not yet settled on or before March 31, 2024 and 2023 , respectively. ( 2 ) All shares repurchased have been retired and constitute authorized but unissued shares. ( 3 ) Costs exclude 1% excise tax on corporate stock buybacks. ( 4 ) Amounts in the table may not recalculate exactly due to rounding. Average repurchase price per share is calculated based on unrounded numbers and excludes the 1% excise tax. 15 Table of Contents BOYD GAMING CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) — (Continued) as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 and for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 ______________________________________________________________________________________________________ Dividends The dividends declared by the Board of Directors and reflected in the periods presented are: Declaration date Record date Payment date Amount per share December 8, 2022 December 19, 2022 January 15, 2023 $ 0.15 February 14, 2023 March 15, 2023 April 15, 2023 0.16 December 7, 2023 December 22, 2023 January 15, 2024 0.16 February 28, 2024 March 15, 2024 April 15, 2024 0.17 Share-Based Compensation We account for share-based awards exchanged for employee services in accordance with the authoritative accounting guidance for share-based payments. Under the guidance, share-based compensation expense is measured at the grant date, based on the estimated fair value of the award, and is recognized as expense, net of estimated forfeitures, over the employee's requisite service period. The following table provides classification detail of the total costs related to our share-based employee compensation plans reported in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. Three Months Ended March 31, (In thousands) 2024 2023 Gaming $ 235 $ 221 Food & beverage 45 42 Room 21 20 Selling, general and administrative 1,192 1,120 Corporate expense 5,367 6,416 Total share-based compensation expense $ 6,860 $ 7,819 Performance Shares Our stock incentive plan provides for the issuance of Performance Share Units ("PSU") grants which may be earned, in whole or in part, upon passage of time and the attainment of performance criteria. We periodically review our estimates of performance against the defined criteria to assess the expected payout of each outstanding PSU grant and adjust our stock compensation expense accordingly. The PSU grants awarded in third quarter 2021 and fourth quarter 2019 fully vested during the first quarter of 2024 and 2023, respectively. Common shares under the 2021 grant were issued based on the determination by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors ("Compensation Committee") of our actual achievement of Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization and Rent under master leases ("EBITDAR") and return on invested capital for the two -year performance period from July 2021 to June 2023. Common shares under the 2019 grant were issued based on the determination by the Compensation Committee of net revenue growth and EBITDAR growth for the three -year performance period of the grant. As provided under the provisions of our stock incentive plan, certain of the participants elected to surrender a portion of the shares to be received to pay the withholding and other payroll taxes payable on the compensation resulting from the vesting of the PSUs. The PSU grant awarded in July 2021 resulted in a total of 241,277 shares being issued during the first quarter of 2024, representing approximately 1.94 shares per PSU. Of the 241,277 shares issued, a total of 94,862 were surrendered by the participants for payroll taxes, resulting in a net issuance of 146,415 shares due to the vesting of the 2021 grant. The actual achievement level under the award metrics approximated the estimated performance as of the year-end 2023; therefore, the vesting of the PSUs had minimal impact to compensation costs of $ 0.8 million in our 2024 condensed consolidated statement of operations. The PSU grant awarded in December 2019 resulted in a total of 519,782 shares being issued during the first quarter of 2023, representing approximately 2.00 shares per PSU. Of the 519,782 shares issued, a total of 200,904 were surrendered by the participants for payroll taxes, resulting in a net issuance of 318,878 shares due to the vesting of the 2019 grant. The actual achievement level under the award metrics equaled the estimated performance as of the year-end 2022; therefore, the vesting of the PSUs did not impact compensation costs in our 2023 condensed consolidated statement of operations. Unamortized Stock Compensation Expense and Recognition Period As of March 31, 2024 , there was approximately $ 21.3 million, $ 9.3 million and $ 1.8 million of total unrecognized share-based compensation costs related to unvested restricted stock units ("RSUs"), PSUs and career shares, respectively. As of March 31, 2024 , the unrecognized share-based compensation costs related to our RSUs, PSUs and career shares are expected to be recognized over approximately 2.5 years, 2.6 years and 3.5 years, respectively. NOTE 8. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS We have adopted the authoritative accounting guidance for fair value measurements, which does not determine or affect the circumstances under which fair value measurements are used, but defines fair value, expands disclosure requirements around fair value and specifies a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on whether the inputs to those valuation techniques are observable or unobservable. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect the Company's market assumptions. 16 Table of Contents BOYD GAMING CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) — (Continued) as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 and for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 ______________________________________________________________________________________________________ These inputs create the following fair value hierarchy: Level 1 : Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets. Level 2 : Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets. Level 3 : Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable. As required by the guidance for fair value measurements, financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Thus, assets and liabilities categorized as Level 3 may be measured at fair value using inputs that are observable (Levels 1 and 2 ) and unobservable (Level 3 ). Management's assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment and may affect the valuation of assets and liabilities and their placement within the fair value hierarchy levels. Balances Measured at Fair Value The following tables show the fair values of certain of our financial instruments: March 31, 2024 (In thousands) Balance Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Assets Cash and cash equivalents $ 283,545 $ 283,545 $ — $ — Restricted cash 4,493 4,493 — — Investment available for sale 13,550 — — 13,550 December 31, 2023 (In thousands) Balance Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Assets Cash and cash equivalents $ 304,271 $ 304,271 $ — $ — Restricted cash 3,659 3,659 — — Investment available for sale 13,327 — — 13,327 Cash and Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash The fair values of our cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash, classified in the fair value hierarchy as Level 1, are based on statements received from our banks as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 . Investment Available for Sale We have an investment in a single municipal bond issuance of $ 17.1 million aggregate principal amount of 7.5 % Urban Renewal Tax Increment Revenue Bonds, Taxable Series 2007 that is classified as available for sale with a maturity date of June 1, 2037. We are the only holder of this instrument and there is no quoted market price for this instrument. As such, the fair value of this investment is classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. The estimate of the fair value of such investment was determined using a combination of current market rates and estimates of market conditions for instruments with similar terms, maturities and degrees of risk and a discounted cash flows analysis as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 . The fair value of the instrument is estimated using a discounted cash flows approach and the significant unobservable input used in the valuation at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 is a discount rate of 12.7 % and 12.4 %, respectively. Unrealized gains and losses on this instrument resulting from changes in the fair value of the instrument are not charged to earnings, but rather are recorded as other comprehensive income (loss) in the stockholders' equity section of the condensed consolidated balance sheets and in the condensed consolidated statement of other comprehensive income. At both March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 , $ 0.7 million of the carrying value of the investment available for sale is included as a current asset in prepaid expenses and other current assets, and at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 , $ 12.8 million and $ 12.6 million, respectively, is included in other assets, net on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The discount associated with this investment of $ 2.0 million at both March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 , is netted with the investment balance and is being accreted over the life of the investment using the effective interest method. The accretion of such discount is included in interest income on the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The following table summarizes the changes in fair value of the Company's Level 3 investment available for sale asset: Three Months Ended March 31, (In thousands) 2024 2023 Balance at beginning of reporting period $ 13,327 $ 13,670 Total gains (realized or unrealized): Included in interest income 44 43 Included in other comprehensive income 179 635 Purchases, sales, issuances and settlements: Settlements — — Balance at end of reporting period $ 13,550 $ 14,348 17 Table of Contents BOYD GAMING CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) — (Continued) as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 and for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 ______________________________________________________________________________________________________ We are exposed to valuation risk on our Level 3 financial instruments. We estimate our risk exposure using a sensitivity analysis of potential changes in the significant unobservable inputs of our fair value measurements. Our Level 3 financial instruments are most susceptible to valuation risk caused by changes in the discount rate. If the discount rate in our fair value measurements increased or decreased by 100 basis points, the change would not cause the value of our fair value measurements to change significantly. The fair value of indefinite-lived intangible assets, classified in the fair value hierarchy as Level 3, is utilized in performing the Company's impairment analyses.

The fair value of our note receivable as of December 31, 2023 , was estimated to equal its carrying value after consideration of the expected repayment timing of the remaining balance. The estimated fair value of our Credit Facility is based on a relative value analysis performed on or about March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 . The estimated fair values of our senior notes are based on quoted market prices as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 . The other debt is fixed-rate debt consisting of finance leases with various maturity dates from 2024 to 2025. The other debt is not traded and does not have an observable market input; therefore, we have estimated fair value to be equal to the carrying value for these obligations. There were no transfers between Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 measurements during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 . 18 Table of Contents BOYD GAMING CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) — (Continued) as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 and for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 ______________________________________________________________________________________________________ NOTE 9. SEGMENT INFORMATION The Company has the following four reportable segments: (i) Las Vegas Locals; (ii) Downtown Las Vegas; (iii) Midwest & South; and (iv) Online, (collectively "Reportable Segments"). The Las Vegas Locals, Downtown Las Vegas and Midwest & South segments include the operating results of our gaming entertainment properties. The table below lists the Reportable Segment classification of each of our gaming entertainment properties that were aggregated based on their similar economic characteristics, types of customers, types of services and products provided, the regulatory environments in which they operate and their management and reporting structure. The Online segment includes the operating results of our online gaming operations through collaborative arrangements with third parties throughout the United States and the operations of Boyd Interactive. To reconcile Reportable Segments information to the condensed consolidated information, the Company has aggregated nonreportable operating segments into a Managed & Other category. The Managed & Other category includes management fees earned under our management contract with Wilton Rancheria for the management of Sky River Casino in northern California and the operating results of Lattner Entertainment Group Illinois, LLC, our Illinois distributed gaming operator.

Results for Downtown Las Vegas include the results of our Hawaii-based travel agency and captive insurance company as our Downtown Las Vegas properties focus their marketing efforts on gaming customers from Hawaii. 19 Table of Contents BOYD GAMING CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) — (Continued) as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 and for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 ______________________________________________________________________________________________________ EBITDAR is a commonly used measure of performance in our industry that we believe, when considered with measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, facilitates comparisons between us and our competitors and provides our investors a more complete understanding of our operating results before the impact of investing transactions, financing transactions and income taxes. Management has historically adjusted EBITDAR when evaluating operating performance because we believe that the inclusion or exclusion of certain recurring and non-recurring items is necessary to provide a full understanding of our core operating results and as a means to evaluate period-to-period results.
