Canterbury Park Holding Corporation reported a stronger second quarter as revenue and adjusted EBITDA increased from the prior-year period. The Globe and Mail, in syndicated material from Zacks Investment Research, said the company generated USD 16.17 million in revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2026, while the net loss narrowed to USD 0.15 million.

Revenue growth meets tighter cost control

Revenue rose 3.2 percent year over year, while adjusted EBITDA increased 29.3 percent to USD 2.63 million. The adjusted EBITDA margin expanded to 16.3 percent from 13 percent, according to The Globe and Mail.

The improvement at the adjusted level did not translate into higher operating income. Operating income declined to USD 0.29 million from USD 0.43 million as operating expenses grew faster than revenue. The quarter also included a USD 0.42 million impairment of receivables linked to earlier purse overpayments.

Casino activity remains central

Casino revenue increased 1.5 percent to USD 9.63 million. Table-games revenue rose to USD 7.27 million, more than offsetting lower poker revenue, while pari-mutuel revenue increased to USD 2.32 million.

Food-and-beverage revenue climbed 19.6 percent to USD 2.47 million. Management attributed the broader operating improvement to stronger table-games activity, more live-racing days and operating initiatives, while lower simulcast revenue and fewer concert events were offsets.

Cash position supports development

Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash totaled USD 19.45 million at June 30, up from USD 15.82 million at the end of 2025. Canterbury Park had no borrowings under its USD 5 million revolving credit line, while six-month operating cash flow reached USD 7.49 million.

The company expects USD 1.2 million of tax-increment-financing reimbursements in 2026 and said the Triple Crown Residences joint ventures are expected to generate positive combined cash flow in 2027. Management also expects the new amphitheater to support demand for gaming, food, beverage and entertainment offerings.
