Additional Projects and Other Developments

In September 2016, the Company was selected by Horse Racing Alberta (“HRA”) as the successful applicant to own, build and operate a horse racing facility in the Edmonton market area, which the Company is planning to operate as Century Mile Racetrack and Casino. In March 2017, the Company received approval for the Century Mile project from the Alberta Gaming and Liquor Commission (“AGLC”). Century Mile will be a one-mile horse racetrack and a multi-level REC. The multi-level REC is expected to have 550 slot machines, restaurants, bars, delis, an off-track betting parlor and grandstand and to hold a minimum of 100 horse races per year. The project is located on Edmonton International Airport land close to the city of Leduc, south of Edmonton. Century Mile will be approximately 30 miles from both CRA and CSA. The Company estimates this project will cost approximately CAD 60.0 million ( $46.2 million based on the exchange rate in effect on June 30, 2017). Construction of the Century Mile project began in July 2017. The Company estimates that construction of this project will take approximately 15 months and that it will be completed by the fourth quarter of 2018. The Company is seeking to obtain financing for the Century Mile project .

Payment of the remaining purchase consideration will be made after the receipt of certain regulatory and governmental approvals and the opening of the casino. Payment of the assumed liabilities is subject to certain performance criteria being met once the casino is in operation. The Company estimates that construction of the casino will cost GBP 5.0 million ( $6.5 million based on the exchange rate in effect on June 30, 2017) and that the casino will open in the first half of 2018.

Correction of Prior Period Balances

Subsequent to the issuance of the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three and six month period s ended June 30, 2016 , the Company determined that it had erroneously recognized a reduction in pari-mutuel revenue for CBS totaling $0.7 million in its condensed consolidated statement of earnings for the six months ended June 30, 2016 . This error also affected the Company’s income tax expense, net earnings attributable to non-controlling interests and consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss), equity, cash flows and Note 12 “Segment and Geographic Information” for the six months ended June 30, 2016 .

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements - In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASU 2014-09”). The objective of ASU 2014-09 is to clarify the principles for recognizing revenue and to develop a common revenue standard under US GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. ASU 2014-09 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2016; provided, however, that in August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers: Deferral of the Effective Date (“ASU 2015-14”), which deferred the effective date of ASU 2014-09 for one year. ASU 2015-14 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The standards permit retrospective application using either of the following methodologies: (i) restatement of each prior reporting period presented or (ii) recognition of a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the date of initial application. In additi on, the FASB has issued four related ASU s on principal versus agent guidance (ASU 2016-08) , identifying performance obligations and the licensing implementation guidance (ASU 2016-10) , a revision of certain SEC Staff Observer comments (ASU 2016-11) and implementation guidance (ASU 2016-12) . The Company plans to adopt the new revenue standards effective January 1, 2018 by recognizing the cumulative effect of initially applying the new standard as an adjustment to the opening balance of equity. The Company continues to analyze the impact that the new standard will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements , including results of operations, cash flows and related disclosures . Upon adoption, management expects the presentation of goods and services presented without charge that is currently presented in total revenue with an offset in promotional allowances will be presented on a net basis within related revenue categories. Management also anticipates a change in the manner in which the Company assigns value to accrued customer benefits related to its player clubs; however , this is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements or results of operations.

In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-11, Inventory (Topic 330): Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory (“ASU 2015-11”). The objective of ASU 2015-11 is to simplify the current guidance under which an entity must measure inventory at the lower of cost or market by requiring entities to measure most inventory at the lower of cost or net realizable value. ASU 2015-11 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company has adopted ASU 2015-11 . The Company will continue to measure inventory using the first-in, first-out method and will state inventory at the lower of cost or net realizable value . A t June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , all inventory was stated at cost.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (“ASU 2016-02”). The objective of ASU 2016-02 is to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities by lessees for those leases classified as operating leases under previous GAAP. ASU 2016-02 requires lessees to account for leases as finance leases or operating leases. Both finance and operating leases will result in the lessee recognizing a right-of-use asset and corresponding lease liability. For finance leases , the lessee would recognize interest expense and amortization of the right-of use asset and , for operating leases , the lessee would recognize a straight-line lease expense. ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption of ASU 2016-02 is permitted. The Company has begun analyzing its operating lease agreements , and management anticipates the Company’s assets and liabilities will increase proportionally after the adoption of ASU 2016-02 . The changes to the Company’s consolidated balance sheet and the potential impact to its results of operations may be material.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting (“ASU 2016-09”). The objective of ASU 2016-09 is to simplify the accounting for share-based payment transactions , including recording all excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies through income tax on the statement of earnings and eliminating the requirement that excess tax benefits be realized before they can be recognized . ASU 2016-09 also simplifies several other aspects of the accounting for employee share-based payments, including forfeitures, statutory tax withholdings requirements and classification on the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company has adopted ASU 2016-09 . The Company has elected to account for forfeitures of share-based payments as they occur .

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments (“ASU 2016-15”). The objective of ASU 2016-15 is to reduce diversity in the classification of cash receipts and payments for specific cash flow issues, including debt prepayment or debt extinguishment costs, contingent consideration payments made after a business combination and proceeds from the settlement of insurance claims. ASU 2016-15 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption of ASU 2016-15 is permitted . ASU 2016-15 should be applied using a retrospective transition method . The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2016-15; however, the standard is not expected to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-16, Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory (“ASU 2016-16”). The objective of ASU 2016-16 is to improve the accounting for income tax consequences of intra-entity transfers of assets other than inventory. ASU 2016-16 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption of ASU 2016-16 is permitted at the beginning of an annual period . ASU 2016-16 should be applied using a modified retrospective approach. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2016-16; however, the standard is not expected to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, Restricted Cash (“ASU 2016-18”). The objective of ASU 2016-18 is to require the statement of cash flows to include restricted cash in explaining the change during the period in the total of cash and cash equivalents. ASU 2016-18 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption of ASU 2016-18 is permitted. ASU 2016-18 should be applied using a retrospective transition method to each period presented. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2016-1 8 ; however, the standard is not expected to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, Clarifying the Definition of a Business (“ASU 2017-01”). The objective of ASU 2017-01 is to add guidance to assist entities in evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions or disposals of assets or of businesses . ASU 2017-01 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those periods. Early adoption is permitted for interim and annual periods in which the financial statements have not been issued or made available for issuance. The Company has adopted ASU 2017-01 and has used the guidance to evaluate the SCCL License Acquisition. See Note 1.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment (“ASU 2017-04”). The objective of ASU 2017-04 is to simplify the subsequent measurement of goodwill by entities performing their annual goodwill impairment tests by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit, including income tax effects from any tax-deductible goodwill, with its carrying amount and recognizing an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds fair value. ASU 2017-04 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2021, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption of ASU 2017-04 is permitted on goodwill impairment tests performed after January 1, 2017. ASU 2017-04 should be applied on a prospective basis. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2017-04; however, the standard is not expected to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-09, Stock Compensation (“ASU 2017-09”). The objective of ASU 2017-09 is to provide guidance about which changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award require an entity to apply modification accounting. ASU 2017-09 is effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted. ASU 2014-09 should be applied prospectively to an award modified on or after the adoption date. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2017-09; however, the standard is not expected to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Accounting Policies

Inventories – Inventories, which consist primarily of food, beverage , retail merchandise and operating supplies, are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is determined by the first-in, first-out method.

Stock-Based Compensation - Stock-based compensation expense is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized as expense over the vesting period. The Company accounts for forfeitures as they occur. The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model for all non-performance option grants and the Monte Carlo option pricing model for all performance option grants to determine the fair value of all option grants.

3. ACQUISITIONS

Apex Acquisition

On October 1, 2016, the Company’s subsidiary, Century Casino St. Albert Inc., acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of Casino St. Albert Inc. (“CSAI”), Action ATM Inc. (“AAI”) and MVP Sports Bar Ltd. (“MVP”), collectively operating the Apex Casino in St. Albert, Edmonton, Canada as well as acquiring the related land and real property held by Game Plan Developments Ltd. (the “Apex Acquisition”). The Company merged CSAI, AAI and MVP with Century Casino St. Albert Inc., the surviving company, and renamed the casino Century Casino St. Albert. CSA is a 34,500 square foot casino facility located on approximately six acres of land that includes 381 slot machines, 7 live table games, 12 video lottery terminals, a restaurant, a bar, a lounge and a banquet facility that can accommodate up to 175 guests.

The Company paid for the acquisition using additional financing from the second amended and restated credit agreement with the Bank of Montreal (the “BMO Credit Agreement”) (see Note 7). T he total consideration of CAD 31.9 million ( $24. 3 million based on the exchange rate in effect on October 1, 2016) (the “Purchase Price”) for the Apex Acquisition consisted of the following:

CAD 27.7 million ( $21.1 million), which was paid at closing on October 1, 2016.

CAD 2.0 million ( $1.5 million) in excess working capital paid as part of the Purchase Price pursuant to the purchase agreement, which was paid in February 2017.

The remaining CAD 2.2 million ( $1.7 million) of the Purchase Price remains subject to certain holdbacks for indemnities that are set forth in the purchase agreement. The holdbacks will be held in an escrow account until the expiration of the agreed upon timelines.

As of October 1, 2016, the Company began consolidating Century Casino St. Albert Inc. as a wholly owned subsidiary. CSA contributed $2.1 million in net operating revenue and $0.3 million in net earnings attributable to Century Casinos, Inc. shareholders and $4.1 million in net operating revenue and $0.3 million in net earnings attributable to Century Casinos, Inc. shareholders for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively.

The Company accounted for the transaction as a business combination . A ccordingly, CSA’s assets of $22.4 million (including $3.1 million in cash) and liabilities of $1.7 million were included in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet at October 1, 2016. Goodwill of $3.6 million is attributable to the business expansion opportunity for the Company. The acquisition leverages the Company’s management specialties and expertise in the gaming industry, expands the Company’s casino offerings in the Edmonton market and creates operational synergies. Goodwill is not a tax deductible item for the Company.

The fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed (excluding cash received) was determined to be $21.2 million as of the acquisition date. The fair value was determined using the following methods, which the Company believes provide the most appropriate indicators of fair value:

multi-period excess earnings method;

cost method;

capitalized cash flow method;

discounted cash flow method; and

direct market value approach.

Details of the purchase in the table below are based on estimated fair values of assets and liabilities as of October 1, 2016. The acquisition was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting. Assets acquired and liabilities assumed in connection with the acquisition have been recorded at their preliminary fair values. Certain estimated values for the acquisition are not yet finalized pending the final purchase price allocations, and as a result, the Company's estimates and assumptions are subject to change within the measurement period as valuations are finalized. The Company expects to finalize the allocation of the purchase price within one year of the acquisition.

4. COST INVESTMENT

Mendoza Central Entretenimientos S.A.

On October 31, 2014, CCE entered into an agreement ( the “ MCE Agreement ”) with Gambling and Entertainment LLC and its affiliates, pursuant to which CCE purchased 7.5% of the shares of MCE, a company formed in Argentina, for $1.0 million. Pursuant to the MCE Agreement, CCE is work ing with MCE to utilize MCE’s exclusive concession agreement with Instituto Provincial de Juegos y Casinos to lease slot machines and provide related services to Casino de Mendoza , a casino located in Mendoza, Argentina, and owned by the Province of Mendoza. MCE may also pursue other gaming opportunities. Under the MCE Agreement, CCE has appointed one director to MCE’s board of directors and has the right to appoint additional directors to MCE’s board of directors based on its ownership percentage of MCE . In addition, CCE has a three -year option through October 2017 to purchase up to 50% of the shares of MCE . The option can be exercised by CCE in tranches of shares, with each tranche representing not less than ten percent of the total outstanding shares of MCE. The exercise price of the shares is based upon the value of MCE at the time the option is exercised, which value is determined by a multiple of MCE’s EBITDA for the immediate past four full calendar quarters multiplied by five less certain outstanding debt of MCE, including but not limited to lease payments to slot machine suppliers, plus current financial assets (cash and banks, receivables and commercial credits) of MCE. There are no conditions that limit CCE’s ability to exercise this option. CCE has not exercised any options to purchase shares of MCE. The Company accounts for the $1.0 million investment in MCE using the cost method.

5. GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Goodwill

The Company test s goodwill for impairment as of October 1 each year, or more frequently as circumstances indicate it is necessary. Testing compares the estimated fair values of our reporting units to the reporting units’ carrying values. The reporting units with goodwill balances as of June 30, 2017 include the operations at CRA, CDR , CSA and CPL. The Company consider s a variety of factors whe n estimating the fair value of its reporting units, including estimates about the future operating results of each reporting unit, multiples of earnings, various market analyses, and recent sales of comparable businesses, if such information is available. The Company makes a variety of estimates and judgments about the relevance and comparability of these factors to the reporting units in estimating their fair values. If the carrying value of a reporting unit exceeds its estimated fair value, the fair value of each reporting unit is allocated to the reporting unit’s assets and liabilities to determine the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill and whether impairment is necessary. There have been no indications of impairment at CRA , CDR or CPL since the Company’s last annual analysis, or at CSA since the valuation as part of the acquisition, that would necessitate additional impairment testing by the Company .

Changes in the carrying amount of goodwill related to CRA , CDR , CSA and CPL are as follows:

Effect of foreign currency translation		0		198		198
Balance -- June 30, 2017	$	108	$	1,648	$	1,756

The Company has determined both trademarks have indefinite useful lives and therefore the Company does not amortize the trademarks. Rather, the Company tests its trademarks for impairment as of October 1 each year, or more frequently as circumstances indicate it is necessary. The Company tests trademarks for impairment using the relief-from-royalty method. If the fair value of an indefinite-lived intangible asset is less than its carrying amount, the Company would recognize an impairment charge equal to the difference. No impairment charges related to the Century Casinos and Casinos Poland trademarks have been recorded.

Members of the Company’s casinos’ player clubs earn points based on, among other things, their volume of play at the Company’s casinos. Players can accumulate points over time that they may redeem at their discretion under the terms of the program. The Company records a liability based on the redemption value of the points earned, and records a corresponding reduction in casino revenue. Points can be redeemed for cash , downloadable promotional credits and/or various amenities at the casino, such as meals, hotel stays and gift shop items. The value of the points is offset against the revenue in the period in which the points were earned. The value of unused or unredeemed points is included in accrued liabilities on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. The expiration of unused points results in a reduction of the liability. As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 201 6 , the outstanding balance of this liability was $0 . 7 million .

Under the land lease, CDR has four options to purchase the land. The first option date is July 1, 2023. Due to the nature of the CDR land lease financing obligation, there are no principal payments due until the Company exercises its option to purchase the land. Lease payments are applied to interest only, and any change in the outstanding balance of the financing obligation relates to foreign currency translation.

8. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Litigation

Since 2011, the Polish Internal Revenue Service (“Polish IRS”) has conducted a series of tax audits of CPL to review the calculation and payment of personal income tax by CPL employees for periods ranging from 2007 to 2011 . The Polish IRS has asserted that CPL should calculate, collect and remit to the Polish IRS personal income tax on tips received by CPL employees from casino customers and has prevailed in several court challenges by CPL. Through June 30, 2017 , CPL has paid PLN 6.4 million ( $2.1 million) related to these audits. As a result of one court decision currently on appeal, CPL’s tax records for 2009 remain open for audit.

In December 2016, the Polish IRS conducted a tax audit of December 2010 and the remaining open portion of the 2011 fiscal year. As a result, CPL is required to pay PLN 2.9 million ( $0. 8 million based on the exchange rate in effect on June 30, 2017 ) related to this audit . The Polish IRS has not issued an official decision on this audit , and no payment will be made until the decision is issued. CPL plans to file an appeal of the tax audit decision after it is received. In addition, in June 2017, the Polish IRS began conducting a tax audit of the 2012 and 2013 fiscal years The audit is still being conducted .

The balance of the potential liability on the Company ’s condensed consolidated balance sheet for all open periods as of June 30, 2017 is PLN 9 . 0 million ( $2. 4 million based on the exchange rate in effect on June 30, 2017 ). The Company has evaluated the contingent liability recorded on its condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2017 and has concluded that it is properly accrued in light of the Company’s estimated obligation related to personal income tax on tips as of June 30, 2017 . Additional court decisions and other proceedings by the Polish IRS may expose the Company to additional employment tax obligations in the future. Any additional tax obligations are not probable or estimable and the Company has not recorded any additional obligation related to such taxes as of June 30, 2017 . Additional tax obligations assessed in the future as a result of these matters, if any, may be material to the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

In October 2016, the Company filed a motion for arbitration in Poland against LOT Polish Airlines, which previously owned a 33.3% interest in CPL that it sold to the Company in 2013. The Company is seeking to collect amounts owed to the Company by LOT Polish Airlines in connection with the payments made to the Polish IRS for the tax periods December 1, 2007 to December 31, 2008 and January 1, 2011 to January 31, 2011 pursuant to an agreement with LOT Polish Airlines under which the Company acquired the additional 33.3% interest in CPL . I n June 2017 , the arbitrator awarded the Company PLN 1.2 million ( $0.3 million based on the exchange rate in effect on June 30, 2017) related to its claim for the periods indicated .

9. INCOME TAXES

Income tax expense is recorded relative to the jurisdictions that recognize book earnings. During the six months ended June 30, 2017 , the Company recognized income tax expense of $ 1 . 9 million on pre-tax income of $ 6 . 8 million, representing an effective income tax rate of 2 7 . 2 % compared to an income tax expense of $1 . 8 million on pre-tax income of $ 8 . 8 million, representing an effective income tax rate of 2 0 . 0 % for the same period in 201 6 .

The difference between the income taxes expected at the U.S. federal statutory income tax rate of 34% and the reported income tax expense are impacted by a number of items . The Company’s effective tax rate is lower because there is a lower statutory tax rate in the countries where the Company pays taxes, such as Austria, Mauritius, Canada and Poland, when compared to the United States. T here is a lso a lower effective tax rate for the Company’s Canadian and Polish operations due to exchange rate benefits .

The Company has a valuation allowance on its U.S. deferred tax assets that results from uncertainty regarding its ability to realize the benefits of its U.S. deferred tax assets. The Company continues to monitor the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets in the U.S. on a quarterly basis, and it may release all or a portion of the U.S. valuation allowance in 2017 or in subsequent years in the event that more positive evidence becomes available. Further, the Company’s implementation of certain tax strategies could reduce the need for a valuation allowance in the future. If the Company concludes that its prospects for the realization of its deferred tax assets are more likely than not, it will reduce its valuation allowance as appropriate.

10 . EARNINGS PER SHARE

The calculation of basic earnings per share considers only weighted average outstanding common shares in the computation. The calculation of diluted earnings per share gives effect to all potentially dilutive stock options . The calculation of diluted earnings per share is based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, plus, if dilutive, the assumed exercise of stock options using the treasury stock method. Weighted average shares outstanding for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 201 6 were as follows:



	For the three months				For the six months
	ended June 30,				ended June 30,
Amounts in thousands	2017		2016		2017		2016
Weighted average common shares, basic		24,466		24,432		24,460		24,445

Weighted average common shares, diluted		24,962		24,548		24,911		24,616

The following stock options are anti-dilutive and have not been included in the weighted average shares outstanding calculation:



	For the three months				For the six months
	ended June 30,				ended June 30,
Amounts in thousands	2017		2016		2017		2016

11. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS AND DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS REPORTING

Fair Value Measurements

The Company follows fair value measurement authoritative accounting guidance for all assets and liabilities measured at fair value. That authoritative accounting guidance defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Market or observable inputs are the preferred sources of values, followed by assumptions based on hypothetical transactions in the absence of market inputs. The fair value hierarchy for grouping these assets and liabilities is based on the significance level of the following inputs:

Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

Level 2 – quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-derived valuations whose inputs are observable or whose significant value drivers are observable

Level 3 – significant inputs to the valuation model are unobservable

A financial instrument’s categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability. The Company reflects transfers between the three levels at the beginning of the reporting period in which the availability of observable inputs no longer justifies classification in the original level.

Recurring Fair Value Measurements

The estimated fair value and basis of valuation of our financial liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis were as follows:


Amounts in thousands	June 30, 2017						December 31, 2016
	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Level 1		Level 2		Level 3
Interest rate swap liability (1)	$	0	$	101	$	0	$	0	$	129	$	0

(1) See “Derivative Instruments Reporting” below for detailed information regarding the Company's interest rate swap agreements.

The Company determines the fair value of its interest rate swap agreements based on the notional amount of the swaps and the forward rate CAD-CDOR curve provided by Bloomberg and zero-coupon Canadian spot rates as of the valuation date. The Company classifies these instruments as Level 2 because the inputs into the valuation model can be corroborated utilizing observable benchmark market rates at commonly quoted intervals.

Non-Recurring Fair Value Measurements

The Company applies the provision s of the fair value measurement standard to its non-recurring, non-financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value. There were no assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis as of June 30, 2017 . During 2016, the Company determined that the fair value of the Katowice leasehold improvements was zero based on the expiration of the license for that casino. As a result , $0.4 million was charged to operating costs and expenses during the year ended December 31, 2016.

Long-Term Debt – The carrying value of the Company’s BMO Credit Agreement approximates fair value based on the refinancing of the debt in September 2016 and the variable interest paid on the obligation. The carrying value of the Company’s CPL credit agreement approximates fair value based on the variable interest rate paid on the debt and the short-term nature of the obligation. The estimated fair values of the outstanding balances under the BMO Credit Agreement and CPL credit agreement are designated as Level 2 measurements in the fair value hierarchy based on quoted prices in active markets for similar liabilities. The fair values of the Company’s capital lease obligations and CDR’s land lease approximate fair value based on the similar terms and conditions currently available to the Company in the marketplace for similar financings. The estimated fair values of the outstanding balances related to the Company’s capital lease obligations and CDR’s land lease are designated as Level 3 measurements based on the unobservable nature of the inputs used to evaluate such liabilities.

Other Estimated Fair Value Measurements – The estimated fair value of the Company’s other assets and liabilities, such as cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, inventory, accrued payroll and accounts payable , have been determined to approximate carrying value based on the short-term nature of those financial instruments. As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 201 6 , the Company had no cash equivalents.

Derivative Instruments Reporting

As of April 2015, the Company began using interest rate swaps to mitigate the risk of variable interest rates under its BMO Credit Agreement. The interest rate swaps were not designated as accounting hedges. These interest rate swaps reset monthly , and t he difference to be paid or received under the terms of the interest rate swap agreements is accrued as interest rates change and is recognized as an adjustment to interest expense for the related debt. See Note 7 for d etails of the Company’s three interest rate swap agreements .

Changes in the variable interest rates to be paid or received pursuant to the terms of the interest rate swap agreements are recognized in interest expense on the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of earnings . The location and effects of derivative instruments on the condensed consolidated statements of earnings were as follows:

Operating segments are aggregated within reportable segments based on their similar characteristics, types of customers, types of services and products provided, the regulatory environments in which they operate, and their management and reporting structure. The Company’s casino properties provide gaming, hotel accommodations, dining facilities and other amenities to the Company’s customers. The Company’s operations related to concession, management and consulting agreements and certain other corporate and management operations have not been identified as separate reportable segments; therefore, these operations are included in Corporate and Other in the following segment disclosures to reconcile to consolidated results. All intercompany transactions are eliminated in consolidation.

The table below provides information about the aggregation of the Company’s operating segments into reportable segments:


Reportable Segment	Operating Segment
Canada	Century Casino & Hotel - Edmonton
Canada	Century Casino Calgary
Canada	Century Downs Racetrack and Casino
Canada	Century Bets!
Canada	Century Casino St. Albert
United States	Century Casino & Hotel – Central City
United States	Century Casino & Hotel – Cripple Creek
Poland	Casinos Poland
Corporate and Other	Cruise Ships & Other
Corporate and Other	Corporate Other

The Company’s chief operating decision maker is a management function comprised of two individuals. These two individuals are our Co-Chief Executive Officers. The Company’s chief operating decision makers and management utilize Adjusted EBITDA as a primary profit measure for its reportable segments. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-U.S. GAAP measure defined as net earnings (loss) before interest expense (income), net, income taxes (benefit), depreciation, amortization, non-controlling interest (earnings) losses and transactions, pre-opening expenses, acquisition costs, non-cash stock-based compensation charges, asset impairment costs, (gain) loss on disposition of fixed assets, discontinued operations, (gain) loss on foreign currency transactions and other, gain on business combination and certain other one-time items. Intercompany transactions consisting primarily of management and royalty fees and interest, along with their related tax effects, are excluded from the presentation of net earnings (loss) and Adjusted EBITDA reported for each segment. Non-cash stock-based compensation expense is presented under Corporate and Other in the tables below as the expense is not allocated to reportable segments when reviewed by the Company’s chief operating decision makers.

EXECUTIVE OVERVIEW

Overview

Since our inception in 1992, we have been primarily engaged in developing and operating gaming establishments and related lodging, restaurant and entertainment facilities. Our primary source of revenue is from the net proceeds of our gaming machines and tables, with ancillary revenue generated from hotel, restaurant, horse racing (including off-track betting), bowling and entertainment facilities that are in most instances a part of the casinos.

We view each property as a separate operating segment and aggregate all such properties into three reportable segments based on the geographical locations in which our casinos operate: Canada, United States and Poland. We have additional business activities including concession, management and consulting agreements and certain other corporate and management operations that we report as Corporate and Other.

The table below provides information about the aggregation of the Company’s operating segments into reportable segments:


Reportable Segment	Operating Segment

The purchase price for the acquisition was CAD 31.9 million ($24.3 million based on the exchange rate in effect on October 1, 2016).

We have controlling financial interests through our subsidiary CCE in the following operating segments:

W e have a 66.6% ownership interest in CPL and we consolidate CPL as a majority-owned subsidiary for which we have a controlling financial interest. Polish Airports owns the remaining 33.3% of CPL. We account for and report the 33.3% Polish Airports ownership interest as a non-controlling financial interest. CPL has been in operation since 1989 and , as of June 30, 2017 , owned and operat ed six casinos throughout Poland with a total of 367 slot machines and 8 2 tables . The fo llowing table summarizes the Polish cities in which CPL operated as of June 30, 2017 , each casino’s location and the number of slots and tables at each casino.

W e have a 75% ownership interest in CDR and we consolidate CDR as a majority-owned subsidiary for which we have a controlling financial interest. We account for and report the remaining 25% ownership interest in CDR as a non-controlling financial interest. CDR operates Century Downs Racetrack and Casino, a REC in Balzac, a north metropolitan area of Calgary, Alberta, Canada. CDR is the only horse race track in the Calgary area and is located less than one-mile north of the city limits of Calgary and 4.5 miles from the Calgary International Airport.

We began operat ing the ship-based casino onboard Mein Schiff 6, a new 2,500 passenger cruise ship in May 2017.

In July 2016, we entered into a c ooperation a greement with Dynamic regarding the operations of the ship-based casino onboard Glory Sea. Under the c ooperation a greement, we operate the casino and Dynamic markets and promotes the casino to VIP players along with facilitating our concession agreement with Diamond , for which we pay Dynamic a portion of the net profit from the casino onboard Glory Sea .

In March 2015, in connection with an agreement with Norwegian to terminate our concession agreements with Oceania and Regent, w e entered into a two-year consulting agreement with Norwegian that became effective on June 1, 2015 . U nder the consulting agreement , we are providing limited consulting services for the ship-based casinos of Oceania and Regent in exchange for receiving a consulting fee of $2.0 million payable $250,000 per quarter through May 2017 .

We have a management agreement to direct the operation of the casino at the Hilton Aruba Caribbean Resort and Casino from which w e receive a monthly management fee. The management agreement ends in December 2017 , and we do not anticipate extending this agreement.

Through our subsidiary CCE, we have a 7.5% ownership interest in MCE and we report our ownership interest using the cost method of accounting. MCE has an exclusive concession agreement with Instituto Provincial de Juegos y Casinos to lease slot machines and provide related services to Casino de Mendoza, a casino located in Mendoza, Argentina and owned by the Province of Mendoza. MCE may also pursue other gaming opportunities. CCE has appointed one director to MCE’s board of directors and has a three - year option through October 2017 to purchase up to 50% of the shares of MCE. The option can be exercised by CCE in tranches of shares, with each tranche representing not less than ten percent of the total outstanding shares of MCE. The exercise price of the shares is based upon the value of MCE at the time the option is exercised, which value is determined by a multiple of MCE’s EBIT D A less certain debt. There are no conditions that limit CCE’s ability to exercise this option. In addition, CCE and MCE have entered into a c onsulting s ervices a greement pursuant to which CCE provides advice on casino matters and receives a service fee consisting of a fixed fee plus a percentage of MCE’s EBITDA.

Additional Project s Under Development

In September 2016, we were selected by HRA as the successful applicant to own, build and operate a horse racing facility in the Edmonton market area , which we are planning to operate as Century Mile Racetrack and Casino . In March 2017, we received approval for the Century Mile project from the AGLC. Century Mile will be a one-mile horse racetrack and a multi-level REC . The project is located on Edmonton International Airport land close to the city of Leduc, south of Edmonton . We began construction on the Century Mile project in July 2017. We estimate this project will cost approximately CAD 6 0 million ($ 46 . 2 million based on the exchange rate in effect as of June 30 , 2017) . We estimate that construction of this project will take approximately 15 months and that it will be completed by the fourth quarter of 2018. We are seeking to obtain financing for the Century Mile project.

On June 20, 2017, our subsidiary, CCE, acquired casinos licenses held by Saw Close Casino Ltd. in Bath, England (the “SCCL License Acquisition”). We are planning to develop and operate a 15,000 square foot casino using the casino licenses. The casino will include 35 slot machines, 18 table games and 24 automated live gaming terminals. The purchase price for the license acquisition was GBP 0.6 million ($0.8 million based on the exchange rate in effect on June 30, 2017), of which GBP 0.1 million ($0.1 million based on the exchange rate in effect on June 20, 2017) was paid at closing and GBP 0.5 million ($0.7 million based on the exchange rate in effect on June 30, 2017) is subject to certain regulatory and governmental approvals and opening of the casino. In addition, we assumed liabilities in the amount of GBP 0.2 million ($0.2 million based on the exchange rate in effect on June 30, 2017) that are repayable if certain performance criteria are met once the casino is in operation. We also have deposited GBP 0.8 million ($1.0 million based on the exchange rate in effect on June 30, 2017) into an escrow account to secure performance of certain obligations under the lease agreements with the landlord of the property that will be released in connection with work performed by SCCL to fit out the casino. We estimate construction and fitting out of the casino will cost an additional GBP 5.0 million ($6.5 million based on the exchange rate in effect on June 30, 2017).

Presentation of Foreign Currency Amounts - The average exchange rates to the U.S. dollar used to translate balances during each reported period are as follows:



	For the three months			For the six months
	ended June 30,			ended June 30,
Average Rates	2017	2016	% Change	2017	2016	% Change
Canadian dollar (CAD)	1.3451	1.2890	(4.4%)	1.3343	1.3311	(0.2%)
Euros (EUR)	0.9096	0.8856	(2.7%)	0.9240	0.8961	(3.1%)
Polish zloty (PLN)	3.8354	3.8726	1.0%	3.9459	3.9141	(0.8%)
British pound (GBP)	0.7822	0.6976	(12.1%)	0.7947	0.6979	(13.9%)
Source: Pacific Exchange Rate Service

We recognize in our statement of earnings foreign currency transaction gains or losses resulting from the translation of casino operations and other transactions that are denominated in a currency other than U.S. dollars. Our casinos in Canada and Poland represent a significant portion of our business, and the revenue generated and expenses incurred by these operations are generally denominated in Canadian dollars and Polish zloty. A decrease in the value of these currencies in relation to the value of the U.S. dollar would decrease the earnings from our foreign operations when translated into U.S. dollars. A n in crease in the value of these currencies in relation to the value of the U.S. dollar would in crease the earnings from our foreign operations when translated into U.S. dollars.

Non-GAAP Measures – Adjusted EBITDA

We define Adjusted EBITDA as net earnings (loss) before interest expense (income), net, income taxes (benefit), depreciation, amortization, non-controlling interest (earnings) losses and transactions, pre-opening expenses, acquisition costs, non-cash stock-based compensation charges, asset impairment costs, (gain) loss on disposition of fixed assets, discontinued operations, (gain) loss on foreign currency transactions and other, gain on business combination and certain other one-time items. Intercompany transactions consisting primarily of management and royalty fees and interest, along with their related tax effects, are excluded from the presentation of net earnings (loss) and Adjusted EBITDA reported for each segment. Not all of the aforementioned items occur in each reporting period, but have been included in the definition based on historical activity. These adjustments have no effect on the consolidated results as reported under US GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA is not considered a measure of performance recognized under US GAAP.

Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA is a valuable measure of the relative performance of the Company and its properties. The gaming industry commonly uses Adjusted EBITDA as a method of arriving at the economic value of a casino operation. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate and forecast the operating performance of the Company and its properties as well as to compare results of current periods to prior periods. Management believes that presenting Adjusted EBITDA to investors provides them with information used by management for financial and operational decision making in order to understand the Company’s operating performance and evaluate the methodology used by management to evaluate and measure such performance. Management believes that using Adjusted EBITDA is a useful way to compare the relative operating performance of separate reporting segments by eliminating the above mentioned items associated with the varying levels of capital expenditures for infrastructure required to generate revenue, and the often high cost of acquiring existing operations. Our computation of Adjusted EBITDA may be different from, and therefore may not be comparable to, similar measures used by other companies within the gaming industry.

The reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net earnings (loss) is presented below.

In June 2017, we opened the 17,000 square foot casino at Hilton Warsaw Hotel and Convention Centre in Warsaw, Poland with 70 slot machines, 24 table games and a bar and lounge area. The Hilton Warsaw Hotel is utilizing the casino license that was used at the LIM Center casino, which was closed in May 2017. As a result of the closure of the LIM Center we impaired PLN 0.5 million ($0.1 mil lion) in leasehold improvements that is included in general and administrative expenses in our condensed consolidated s tatement of earnings for the quarter ended June 30, 2017 .

In June 2017, the casino license at our Wroclaw casino expire d . We have won casino license tenders in the Poland cities of Katowice, Wroclaw and Bielsko-Biala . T hese licenses have not yet been issued by the Minister of Finance. Management believes it is probable we will receive the licenses and open the casinos in the fourth quarter of 2017.

E ffective April 2017, the Polish gaming laws permit online gaming and slot arcades operated through a state run company. We do not anticipate that the changes in the gaming laws will have a significant impact on our results of operations in 2017, though these changes could increase competition and adversely affect our results of operations in the future.

Non-Operating Income (Expense)

Non-operating income (expense) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 201 6 was as follows:


	For the three months							For the six months
	ended June 30,							ended June 30,

Interest income

Interest income is directly related to interest earned on our cash reserves.

Interest expense

Interest expense is directly related to interest owed on the BMO Credit Agreement , the fair value adjustments for our interest rate swap agreements , our CPL borrowings, and interest expense related to CDR’s land lease and our capital lease agreements .

Gain on f oreign c urrency t ransactions and o ther

Gain on foreign currency transactions and other includes $1.6 million received by CDR related to infrastructure built during the development of the Century Downs REC project for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 . The distribution to CDR’s non-controlling shareholders through non-controlling interest is part of the credit agreement between CCE and CDR.

Taxes

Income tax expense is recorded relative to the jurisdictions that recognize book earnings. During the six months ended June 30, 2017 , we recognized income tax expense of $ 1.9 million on pre-tax income of $ 6.8 million, representing an effective income tax rate of 27.2 % , compared to an income tax expense of $ 1 . 8 million on pre-tax income of $ 8.8 million, representing an effective income tax rate of 20.0 % for the same period in 2016 .

The difference between the income taxes expected at the U.S. federal statutory income tax rate of 34% and the reported income tax expense are impacted by a number of items. Our effective tax rate is lower because there is a lower statutory tax rate in the countries where we pay taxes, such as Austria, Mauritius, Canada and Poland, when compared to the United States. There is also a lower effective tax rate for our Canadian and Polish operations due to exchange rate benefits .

We have a valuation allowance on our U.S. deferred tax assets that results from uncertainty regarding our ability to realize the benefits of our U.S. deferred tax assets. We continue to monitor the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets in the U.S. on a quarterly basis, and we may release all or a portion of our U.S. valuation allowance in 2017 or in subsequent years in the event that more positive evidence becomes available. Further, our implementation of certain tax strategies could reduce the need for a valuation allowance in the future. If we conclude that our prospects for the realization of our deferred tax assets are more likely than not, we will reduce the valuation allowance as appropriate.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Our business is capital intensive, and we rely heavily on the ability of our casinos to generate operating cash flow. We use the cash flows that we generate to maintain operations, fund reinvestment in existing properties for both refurbishment and expansion projects, repay third party debt, and pursue additional growth via new development and acquisition opportunities. When necessary and available, we supplement the cash flows generated by our operations with either cash on hand or funds provided by bank borrowings or other debt or equity financing activities.

As of June 30, 2017 , our total debt under bank borrowings and other agreements net of $0.3 million related to deferred financing costs was $ 54. 7 million, of which $ 49. 3 million was long-term debt and $ 5.4 million was the current portion of long -term debt. The current portion relates to payments due within one year under our BMO Credit Agreement, CPL’s credit agreement and other capital lease agreements. We intend to repay the current portion of our debt obligations with available cash. For a description of our debt agreements, see Note 7, “Long-Term Debt,” to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this report. Net D ebt was $ 1 6 .2 million as of June 30, 2017 compared to $5.9 million as of June 30, 2016 . In September 2016, we increased our borrowing capacity on our BMO Credit Agreement to CAD 69.2 million to finance the Apex Acquisition. The increased credit facility added CAD 30.0 million ($ 23.1 million based on the exchange rate in effect on June 30, 2017 ) to our debt balance, of which CAD 3.0 million ($2.3 million based on the exchange rate in effect on June 30, 2017 ) was the current portion as of June 30, 2017 . For the definition and reconciliation of Net Debt to the most directly comparable GAAP measure, see “Non-GAAP Measures – Net Debt” above.

The following table lists the amount of 2017 maturities of our debt:

Cash Flows

At June 30, 2017 , c ash and cash equivalents totaled $ 38.8 million, and we had working capital (current assets minus current liabilities) of $ 19.8 million compared to cash and cash equivalents of $ 38.8 million and working capital of $ 17.3 million at December 31, 201 6 . The increase in cash and cash equivalents from December 31, 2016 is due to $ 7.2 million of net cash provided by operating activities and $ 1.0 million in exchange rate changes, offset by a $ 1.5 million payment related to a working capital adjustment for the Apex Acquisition, $0.1 million payment for the SCCL License Acquisition, $ 3. 1 million used to purchase property and equipment, $ 3. 0 million in principal repayments and $ 0.6 million used for a distribution to non-controlling interests.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $ 7.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and $ 8.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 . Our cash flows from operations have historically been positive and sufficient to fund ordinary operations. Trends in our operating cash flows tend to follow trends in earnings from operations, excluding non-cash charges. Please refer to the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q and to management’s discussion of the results of operations above in this Item 2 for a discussion of earnings from operations.

Net cash used in investing activities of $ 4 . 7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 consisted of $0.1 million for the Palace Hotel renovation project at CRC, which was placed on hold during the first quarter of 2017; $0.1 million to purchase slot machines for CTL and CRC; $0.1 million for the CRA casino renovation; $0. 2 million for bowling lane renovations at CAL; $0. 3 million for a parking lot and thoroughbred infrastructure at CDR; $0.3 million in leasehold improvements at the Hilton Hotel Warsaw; $0.1 million for the SCCL leasehold renovations; $0.4 million for the Century Mile project; $ 1. 5 million in other fixed asset additions at our properties , the $ 1.5 million payment related to a working capital adjustment for the Apex Acquisition and $0.1 million payment related to the SCCL License Acquisition , offset by less than $0.1 million in proceeds from the disposition of fixed assets .

Net cash used in investing activities of $ 3.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 consisted of $ 1.1 million in various projects for CDR including construction of a second barn , parking lots and landscaping, $0.7 million for the CRA casino renovation; $0.4 million in gaming equipment and furniture for three new cruise ships, $0.1 million to purchase new slot machines for CRC; $0.1 million to purchase new slot machines for CTL; $0.1 million for hotel upgrades at CTL; $0.4 million to purchase new slot machines and table games for CPL and $0.9 million in other fixed asset additions at our properties, offset by less than $0.1 million in proceeds from the disposition of fixed assets.

Net cash used in financing activities of $ 3.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 consisted of $ 3.0 million of principal repayments on our long-term debt and $0. 6 million in distributions to non-controlling interests , offset by less than $0.1 million in cash from the exercise of stock options .

Net cash used in financing activities of $ 3.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 consisted of $ 2.0 million of principal repayments on our long-term debt , net of proceeds and a $1.6 million distribution to non-controlling interest , offset by less than $0.1 million received from the exercise of stock options .

Common Stock Repurchase Program

Since 2000, we have had a discretionary program to repurchase our outstanding common stock. In November 2009, we increased the amount available to be repurchased to $15.0 million. We did not repurchase any common stock during the six months ended June 30, 2017 . The total amount remaining under the repurchase program was $14.7 million as of June 30, 2017 . The repurchase program has no set expiration or termination date.

Potential Sources of Liquidity, Short-Term Liquidity

Historically, our primary sources of liquidity and capital resources have been cash flow from operations, bank borrowings, sales of existing casino operations and proceeds from the issuance of equity securities.

We believe that our cash at June 30, 2017 , as supplemented by cash flows from operations , will be sufficient to fund our anticipated operating costs, capital expenditures at existing properties and current debt repayment obligations for at least the next 12 months. We expect that the primary source of cash will be from our gaming operations and additional borrowings under the BMO Credit Agreement and other credit arrangements . We amended the BMO Credit Agreement to obtain the financing needed for the Apex Acquisition, which was completed on October 1, 2016. In addition to the payment of operating costs, expected uses of cash within one year include capital expenditures for our existing properties, interest and principal payments on outstanding debt , the construction of Century Mile , the construction of the SCCL project, a potential renovation and expansion project at the Palace Hotel in Cripple Creek, and other potential new projects. We will continue to evaluate our planned capital expenditures at each of our existing locations in light of the operating performance of the facilities at such locations.

We estimate that the Century Mile project will cost approximately CAD 6 0.0 million ($ 46.2 million based on the exchange rate in effect on June 30, 2017 ). We estimate that the SCCL project will cost approximately GBP 5. 0 million ($ 6 . 5 million based on the exchange rate in effect on June 30, 2017 ), in addition to GBP 0.5 million ($0.7 million based on the exchange rate in effect on June 30, 2017) of additional payments due to the seller of SCCL on the satisfaction of certain conditions. Cash needs for the development of the Century Mile project and the SCCL project exceed our current borrowing capacity. Therefore, we are seeking additional financing to fund these projects. The financing for the Century Mile project may be in the form of a construction or term loan or line of credit with a commercial bank, other debt or equity financings, or a combination of these financings. We intend to obtain a loan for the SCCL project. We have a shelf registration statement with the SEC that became effective in July 2017 under which we may issue, from time to time, up to $100 million of common stock, preferred stock, debt securities and other securities. If necessary, we may seek to obtain further term loans, mortgages or lines of credit with commercial banks or other debt or equity financings to supplement our working capital and investing requirements. A financing transaction may not be available on terms acceptable to us, or at all, and a financing transaction may be dilutive to our current stockholders.

In addition, we expect our U.S. domestic cash resources will be sufficient to fund our U.S. operating activities and cash commitments for investing and financing activities. While we currently do not have an intent nor foresee a need to repatriate funds, we could require more capital in the U.S. than is generated by our U.S. operations for operations, capital expenditures or significant discretionary activities such as acquisitions o f businesses and share repurchases. If so, we could elect to repatriate earnings from foreign jurisdictions or raise capital in the U.S. through debt or equity issuances, which could have adverse tax consequences, as we have not accrued taxes for un-repatriated earnings of our foreign subsidiaries. We estimate that approximately $ 3 3 .0 million of our total $ 38.8 million in cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 2017 is held by our foreign subsidiaries and is not available to fund U.S. operations unless repatriated. The determination of the additional deferred taxes that would be provided for undistributed earnings has not been determined because the hypothetical calculation is not practicable.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.

We had no material changes in our exposure to market risks from that previously reported in Item 7A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 201 6 .

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures – Our management, with the participation of our principal executive officers and principal financial/accounting officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, for the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, our principal executive officers and principal financial/accounting officer have concluded that as of the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting – There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the three months ended June 30, 2017 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. We are evaluating our internal control procedures as they relate to revenue recognition.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

In March 2000, our board of directors approved a discretionary program to repurchase up to $5.0 million of our outstanding common stock. In November 2009, our board of directors approved an increase of the amount available to be repurchased under the program to $15.0 million. The repurchase program has no set expiration or termination date and had approximately $14.7 million remaining as of June 30, 2017 . There were no repurchases of common stock during the six months ended June 30, 2017 .
