Gaming and Leisure Properties, Inc. (NASDAQ: GLPI) today announced that its previously announced underwritten public offering to sell 7,700,000 shares of common stock has been priced for total gross proceeds of approximately $344.6 million. The underwriters will sell the shares to purchasers directly or through agents, through brokers in brokerage transactions on Nasdaq, to dealers in negotiated transactions or in a combination of such methods of sale, at a fixed price or prices, which may be changed, or at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to such prevailing market prices or at negotiated prices. The Company has granted the underwriters a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional 1,155,000 shares of common stock. The offering is expected to close on December 9, 2021, subject to customary closing conditions.

The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the offering to partially finance the acquisition of the real property assets of Live! Casino & Hotel Maryland, Live! Casino & Hotel Philadelphia, and Live! Casino Pittsburgh, including applicable long-term ground leases, from affiliates of The Cordish Companies (the “Cordish Acquisitions”). Pending the closing of the Cordish Acquisitions, the Company intends to use the net proceeds from the offering to repay borrowings under the senior credit facility of its operating partnership or invest in interest-bearing accounts and short-term, interest-bearing securities. The offering is not conditioned upon the successful completion of the Cordish Acquisitions and there is no assurance that the Cordish Acquisitions will be consummated on the anticipated schedule or at all.
