Revenue Recognition
 
On May 1, 2018, we adopted Accounting Standards Codification Topic 606,
Revenue from Contracts with Customers
(“ASC 606”) using a modified retrospective approach. See Note 2, “New Accounting Pronouncements and Legislation Issued,” for a discussion of the new revenue standard and its impact on our unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Prior to the adoption of ASC 606, complimentary revenues pertaining to food and beverage and other were included in gross revenues and excluded from net revenues through promotional allowances in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Subsequent to the adoption of ASC 606, complimentary revenues are included in food and beverage, and other revenues, as appropriate, in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Complimentary other revenues, whether provided as nondiscretionary complimentaries or discretionary complimentaries, were as follows for continuing operations:

Fair Value
 
U.S. generally accepted accounting principles defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date and establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurements. The valuation hierarchy categorizes assets and liabilities measured at fair value into one of three different levels depending on the observability of the inputs employed in the measurement. The three levels are as follows:
 
Level 1 – Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.
 
Level 2 – Other inputs that are observable directly or indirectly such as quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs which are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.
 
Level 3 – Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data and for which we make our own assumptions about how market participants would price the assets and liabilities.
 
The following describes the valuation methodologies used by us to measure fair value:
 
Real estate held for sale is recorded at fair value less selling costs.
 
Goodwill and indefinite lived intangible assets are recorded at carrying value and tested for impairment annually, or more frequently, using projections of discounted future cash flows.
 
Interest rate swaps are adjusted on a recurring basis pursuant to accounting standards for fair value measurements. We categorize our interest rate swap as Level 2 for fair value measurement.
 
Concentrations of Credit Risk
 
Financial instruments that potentially subject us to concentrations of credit risk are primarily notes receivable, cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and payable, and long term debt. Management performs periodic evaluations of the collectability of these notes and accounts receivable. Our cash deposits are held with large, well-known financial institutions, and, at times, such deposits may be in excess of the federally insured limit. The recorded value of cash, accounts receivable and payable, approximate fair value based on their short term nature; the recorded value of long term debt approximates fair value as interest rates approximate current market rates.
 
New Accounting Pronouncements and Legislation Issued
 
Leases
 
In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued amended accounting guidance that changes the accounting for leases and requires expanded disclosures about leasing activities. Under the new guidance, lessees will be required to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability, measured on a discounted basis, at the commencement date for all leases with terms greater than twelve months. Lessor accounting will remain largely unchanged, other than certain targeted improvements intended to align lessor accounting with the lessee accounting model and with the updated revenue recognition guidance. Lessees and lessors must apply a modified retrospective transition approach for leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements. The amended guidance is effective for annual reporting periods (including interim periods within those periods) beginning after December 15, 2018, and early application is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this guidance will have on its financial position and results of operations.
 
Revenue Recognition
 
In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09,
Revenue from Contracts with Customers
, which introduced a new standard related to revenue recognition, ASC 606. Under ASC 606, recognition of revenue occurs when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. In addition, the new revenue standard requires disclosure of the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts. In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14,
Revenue from Contracts with Customers - Deferral of the Effective Date
, which deferred the implementation of ASC 606 to be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017.
 
The Company adopted ASC 606 during the first quarter 2019 using the modified retrospective approach to all contracts as of the date of initial application, which was May 1, 2018. Adoption of the new revenue standard principally affected (1) how we measure the liability associated with our loyalty program and (2) the classification and, as it related to the measurement of revenues and expenses between gaming; food and beverage; and retail, and other. The modified retrospective approach required the Company to recognize the impact of adopting ASC 606 as a cumulative effect adjustment to our beginning retained earnings, which was a decrease of $35,425 as of May 1, 2018. The cumulative effect adjustment related exclusively to re-measuring the liability associated with the loyalty program from a cost approach to an approach that reflects the estimated stand alone selling price (SSP) of the reward credits and certain tier benefits. In addition, the modified retrospective approach required the Company to provide disclosures describing the financial statement line items impacted by the new revenue standard (see below).
 
Prior to the adoption of ASC 606, we determined our liability for loyalty reward credits based on the estimated costs of goods and services to be provided and estimated redemption rates. Upon adoption of ASC 606, points awarded under our loyalty program constitute a material right and, as such, represent a performance obligation associated with the gaming contracts. Therefore, ASC 606 required us to allocate the revenues associated with the players’ activity between gaming revenue and the estimated SSP of the reward credits.
 
In addition to the above, prior to the adoption of ASC 606, complimentary revenues pertaining to food and beverage and retail were included in gross revenues and excluded from net revenues through promotional allowances in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and the estimated costs of providing such complimentary goods and services were included as gaming expenses in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. However, subsequent to the adoption of ASC 606, food and beverage, and other services furnished to our guests on a complimentary basis is measured at the estimated SSP and included as revenues within food and beverage and other as appropriate, in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, with a corresponding decrease in casino revenues. Additionally, subsequent to the adoption of ASC 606, the costs of providing such complimentary goods and services is included as expenses within food and beverage and other as appropriate, in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Restricted Cash
 
In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-18, 
Statement of Cash Flows - Restricted Cash (Topic 230)
, which amends the existing guidance relating to the disclosure of restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents on the statement of cash flows. The ASU requires that amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. The Company adopted this guidance on May 1, 2018 on a retrospective basis and the updated disclosures are reflected for the periods presented in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. For the nine months ended January 31, 2018, the change in restricted cash of ($64,537) was previously reported within net cash provided by operating activities.
 
A variety of proposed or otherwise potential accounting guidance is currently under study by standard-setting organizations and certain regulatory agencies. Due to the tentative and preliminary nature of such proposed accounting guidance, the Company has not yet determined the effect, if any, that the implementation of such proposed accounting guidance would have on its consolidated financial statements.
