Changes to Segment Reporting Format

As a result of the acquisition of Ameristar Casinos, Inc., and the integration of its properties into Pinnacle Entertainment's operations and financial reporting, the Company will make changes to its reportable segment disclosures beginning with the 2013 third quarter. The new reportable segments will generally align the Company's external financial reporting segments with its new internal operating segments, which are based on its internal organizational structure, operating decisions, and performance assessment. The Company's three reportable segments will be comprised of the following:

The Company's South segment will consist of the financial results for the following properties: L'Auberge Lake Charles, Boomtown New Orleans, L'Auberge Baton Rouge, Boomtown Bossier City, and Ameristar Casino Hotel Vicksburg.

The Company's Midwest segment will consist of the financial results for the following properties: River City, Belterra, Ameristar St. Charles, Ameristar Council Bluffs, Ameristar Kansas City, Ameristar East Chicago, and River Downs. Lumiere Place Casino and Hotels will be accounted for as a discontinued operation beginning in the 2013 third quarter and will not be incorporated in the Midwest segment's results.

The Company's West segment will consist of the financial results for the following properties: Ameristar Casino Resort Spa Black Hawk, Cactus Pete's and Horseshu Hotel & Casino.

Corporate expenses and Other operations, while not considered a reportable segment for external financial reporting purposes, will continue to be disclosed separately from the results of the South, Midwest, and West reportable segments. Other operations consist of the management of Retama Park and the Heartland Poker Tour.

Financial results related to Ameristar Casinos, Inc. will be reflected in Pinnacle Entertainment's reported financial results for the portion of the 2013 third quarter that followed the completion of the transaction on August 13, 2013. The Company intends to provide supplemental financial disclosure for the predecessor period of July 1, 2013 to August 12, 2013 for Ameristar Casino's operations, as well as a comparison of that predecessor period to the comparable prior year period, in order to provide investors with information the Company believes is useful in considering the value this transaction brings to Pinnacle Entertainment.
