Preface Casino City’s Indian Gaming Business Report 9 Preface Since the passage of the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act in 1988, many Native American tribes have enjoyed success with gaming. However, the degree of success has varied greatly over time and across gaming facilities, tribes and states. The wide variation in performance has depended on a number of factors, including market conditions, the types of gaming offered, the types of non-gaming amenities offered, the degree of competition, the maturity level of a market, management of gaming facilities and varying legal, regulatory and political environments. The goal of this report, which is the culmination of over 19 years of research and analysis, is to document and analyze the recent performance of Indian gaming, provide some historical and industry perspective and foster a deeper understanding of Indian gaming in the context of Native American tribal affairs, the gaming industry and the U.S. economy in general. This is the 17th annual report. It builds on 16 previous annual report editions authored by Dr. Alan Meister of Meister Economic Consulting that were completed in 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017 and 2018. Mid-year updates were available from 2004 through 20071 . This report presents data and analysis prepared by Casino City Press for calendar year 2017, the most recent year for which data were available, as well as calendar years 2015 and 2016 prepared by Dr. Alan Meister (and sometimes earlier years, as well) for context, comparison and historical analysis. The online version of this report includes historical Indian gaming data back to 2001. A significant portion of the data presented in this report was collected from tribes, Indian gaming facilities, gaming associations and gaming regulatory agencies. I would like to thank them for their assistance in helping to make this report as complete and as accurate as possible. It is noted that this information was not independently audited. As in earlier editions of the report, data for previous years were revised where new or updated information became available. Thus, the information contained in this report supersedes that presented in previous annual reports. This new report continues to be the product of independent, scholarly research. Casino City Press was not commissioned to prepare this report nor were Dr. Alan Meister, Meister Economic Consulting nor Casino City Press commissioned to prepare the earlier reports. Some proprietary financial data used in the preparation of earlier editions of the report were provided by tribes, casinos and gaming associations under the condition that they be kept confidential and presented in aggregate form only. The provision of those data was not conditioned on the report’s findings. However, in order to protect the confidentiality of data in states with only a couple of tribes or gaming facilities, or where data were explicitly provided on a confidential basis, some data in earlier reports were aggregated into the category “Other States.” In this new report Casino City Press has prepared its own estimates for gaming revenue in the other states using an economic model that does not rely on any confidential data, so gaming revenue data for every state is now shown. This publication is one of three reports published by Casino City Press that provide gaming market data. Casino City’s North American Gaming Almanac complements this report by providing revenue data for non-Indian gaming in every state in the U.S. and every province and territory in Canada. Casino City’s Global Gaming Almanac covers gaming worldwide, excluding North America. A number of staff members of Casino City Press worked hard in the preparation of this report.
Table of Contents 10 Casino City’s Indian Gaming Business Report Paul Mogilevsky created the new edition of the report, including the preparation of all of the charts and tables and all updates to the body of the report based on changes in 2017 versus 2016 data. Steve Bloom created the online version, including the market analyzer and map capabilities. Tom Yee and his research team, including Bowman Healey, collected and updated the information on tribes and gaming properties. Andrea Mullaney created the cover artwork and the graphics and product tutorial included in the online version. Gary Trask copy edited the report. Dr. Alan Meister of Meister Economic Consulting reviewed select 2017 information on tribes and gaming properties presented in this report for accuracy and completeness and provided the economic analysis for 2016 and earlier years. However, it should be noted that Casino City Press, rather than Dr. Alan Meister, built the economic models and calculated the 2017 Indian gaming revenue by state figures and all other 2017 economic data published in this report, as well as the revenue by state figures for earlier calendar years for Alabama, Alaska, Colorado, Mississippi, Nebraska, Nevada, North Carolina, Texas and Wyoming.

Casino City’s Indian Gaming Business Report 11 Executive Summary Indian gaming experienced solid growth on a nationwide basis in calendar year 2017. The 4.3% growth of gaming revenue was stronger than the 3.9% growth in 2016. It was the eighth straight year of growth following the Great Recession, leading to a new all-time high of $32.8 billion in gaming revenue in 2017. Non-gaming amenities continued to expand at a strong pace at many Indian gaming facilities. In 2017, non-gaming revenues grew an estimated 10% to an all-time high of $5.4 billion. Altogether, the $38.2 billion in gaming and nongaming revenues in 2017 were generated by 248 tribes operating nearly 362,000 gaming machines and 7,700 table games in 500 gaming facilities in 28 states. Indian gaming’s growth in 2017 was in large part the result of growth of the general economy. U.S. gross domestic product (GDP) grew 2.2% in 2017, faster than the 1.5% growth in 2016 and U.S. per capita disposable personal income (DPI) grew 4.7% in 2017, faster than the 2.8% growth in 2016. Digging in deeper at the state level, gross state product (GSP) increased in every state and 2017 growth was at a faster pace in 32 of them. Meanwhile, state-level per capita disposable personal income (DPI) also increased in all states and at a faster pace in 48 of them. Although Indian gaming’s pattern of faster growth generally followed suit with the national and state economies, 2017 was the third consecutive year that Indian gaming’s growth outpaced that of the U.S. economy. Indian gaming also outperformed other casino gaming segments to maintain its role as the largest industry segment. The traditional commercial casino segment grew 2.9% to $30.9 billion and the racetrack casino (“racino”) segment grew 0.3% to $8.7 billion. These growth rates were stronger in the commercial casino segment and weaker for racinos than those in 2016 (0.7% and 1.6%, respectively). Indian gaming now represents approximately 45.4% of the nationwide casino gaming market, compared to 42.6% for the commercial casino segment and 12% for the racino segment. The only segment to outgrow Indian gaming in 2017 was card rooms with 7.8%. There was some disparity in the performance of Indian gaming across gaming facilities, tribes and states, varying from approximately +8.1% in Washington to +.3% in Louisiana. Indian gaming grew across all states in which it existed. The top 10 fastest growing Indian gaming states were (high to low): Washington, Texas, California, Alabama, Idaho, Arizona, Oregon, Oklahoma, Colorado and Minnesota. In 2017, the largest Indian gaming state in terms of gaming revenue continued to be California, nearly double the size of the next largest state, Oklahoma. California alone accounted for 27.4% of total nationwide gaming revenue for Indian gaming. It was by far the leading driver of overall nationwide gaming revenue growth in 2017 given its sheer size and significant growth (contributed to 43.9% of total nationwide Indian gaming growth). Its 7% growth was slightly higher than in 2016 (6.3%) and so continued to remain above its pre-recession level. This growth also pushed California Indian gaming to a new all-time high of $9 billion in gaming revenue. Gaming revenue continued to be highly concentrated among the largest Indian gaming states. The top two states, California and Oklahoma, generated a combined 41.2% of gaming revenue. Adding Washington, Florida and Arizona puts the top five states at 63.4% of total gaming revenue. The top 10 states, which included Connecticut, Minnesota, Michigan, Wisconsin and New York, generated 84.5% of total gaming revenue. That leaves 18 other states combining to equal only 15.5% of total nationwide Indian gaming revenue. Gaming revenue also continued to be highly concentrated among a small number of very large Indian gaming facilities. In 2017, the top 6.7% of all Indian gaming facilities, which each generated $250 million or more, accounted for 46.3% of total gaming revenue nationwide.
Executive Summary 12 Casino City’s Indian Gaming Business Report Broadening the view a little, the top 28.9% of gaming facilities, which each generated $50 million or more, accounted for 85.9% of gaming revenue. On the other end of the spectrum, the smallest 38.9% of gaming facilities, which each generated $10 million or less, only accounted for 2.1% of gaming revenue. While there has been great disparity between the performance of Class II and Class III gaming in the past, the gap continued to narrow in 2017. Gaming revenue in Class II only states grew 6.1%, compared to approximately 4.2% in states with at least some Class III gaming (i.e., Las Vegas style gaming). In addition, the vast majority of total gaming revenue for Indian gaming was generated in the 24 Indian gaming states with at least some Class III gaming (97.1%). Indian gaming had a significant economic and fiscal impact in 2017. First and foremost, Indian gaming continued to serve as a means of promoting tribal economic development, selfsufficiency and strong tribal governments. Per federal law, gaming profits were used to: Fund tribal government operations; Develop tribal infrastructure; Support tribal programs and services; and Finance economic development efforts. In addition to having a positive impact on Native American tribes and their members, Indian gaming facilities continued to make substantial economic and fiscal impacts on their surrounding communities and the economy. Indian gaming facilities, including their nongaming operations, directly generated economic activity, provided jobs and wages, assisted charities and made direct payments to federal, state and local governments (i.e., revenue sharing). Indian gaming also led to secondary impacts including and resulting from the iteration of purchases of goods and services by Indian gaming facilities, tribal governments, other governments that received revenue sharing payments from tribes, casino vendors and other businesses down the supply chain and employees at all of these entities. In 2017, the total contribution of Indian gaming to the U.S. economy, including both direct and secondary aspects, totaled approximately: $112.8 billion in output (i.e., value of sales); 705,000 jobs; $37.9 billion in wages; and $16.3 billion in fiscal impact, including: $1.9 billion in direct payments to federal, state and local governments; and $14.4 billion in federal, state and local taxes. Looking forward, there are a number of potential opportunities for the future growth of Indian gaming. As the economy continues to grow, it will likely lead to improved growth of Indian gaming. As in previous years, performance will likely vary widely across Indian gaming facilities, tribes and states. There are several potential sources of future Indian gaming growth: 1) States that have limited competition and/or unmet demand; 2) States where tribes were previously restricted in terms of gaming supply but are able to expand when there is sufficient demand; 3) Smaller, less mature Indian gaming markets; 4) Continued development and implementation of high-performing Class II gaming machines; 5) Additions of Class III gaming to Class II only states; 6) The enactment of public policies favorable to the development of Indian gaming; 7) Continued growth from the replacement, expansion and remodeling of existing gaming facilities; and 8) Growth from new Indian gaming facilities, including those requiring land to be taken into trust by the federal government. However, given the mix of legal, regulatory, political and economic challenges facing Indian gaming, there is uncertainty regarding its longerterm future. Key economic challenges include: Increasing competition; New types of gaming, including iGaming, eSports and sports betting; The next generations of gamers; and Maturation of gaming markets.
