Item 2 of the 10-K filed Feb 19, 2026.18

The story

The company was created as a corporate spin-off from Penn National Gaming (now Penn Entertainment), effective November 1, 2013. The corporate breakup was designed to increase investor returns by taking advantage of the lack of federal income taxes on REITs.

In November 2013, GLPI agreed to finance a proposed billion-dollar casino in Milford, Massachusetts, but the project was killed days later when town voters rejected the casino.

In January 2014, the company acquired the real estate assets of the Casino Queen in East St. Louis, Illinois for $140 million, and leased them back to the casino's operating company for $14 million a year. GLPI also loaned $43 million to the casino.

The company's Argosy Casino in Sioux City, Iowa was forced to close in July 2014, and GLPI then sold the casino's real estate.

In May 2014, GLPI agreed to buy The Meadows Racetrack and Casino in western Pennsylvania from Cannery Casino Resorts for $465 million. The company said it would sell the facility's license to a third-party operator, while retaining ownership of the land and buildings. The deal ran into trouble, with GLPI filing a lawsuit accusing Cannery of fraud in October 2014; the lawsuit was eventually settled with an agreement on a reduced purchase price of $440 million.

After casino operator Pinnacle Entertainment announced its own plan in November 2014 to spin off a REIT with the real estate assets of its 15 casinos, GLPI approached Pinnacle with an offer to buy those assets, which it said would be simpler and faster than Pinnacle's plan. Pinnacle did not respond to the offer, so GLPI went public with its offer in March 2015. In July, the companies reached a deal for GLPI to buy 14 of Pinnacle's 15 properties for $4.75 billion in stock, and lease them back to Pinnacle, with rent starting at $377 million per year. The acquisition was completed in April 2016. GLPI also completed its purchase of The Meadows in September 2016 and sold the racetrack operation to Pinnacle for $138 million.

In May 2015, GLPI agreed to finance the real estate portion of a proposed $650-million casino in New Bedford, Massachusetts, but the plan was canceled months later after developers failed to secure the rest of the needed funding.

In May 2017, GLPI purchased the real estate assets of Bally's Casino Tunica and Resorts Casino Tunica for a total of $83 million, while Penn National simultaneously acquired their operating assets.

In October 2018, the company acquired the real estate of five casinos from Tropicana Entertainment for $964 million. The purchase was part of a three-way deal in which Eldorado Resorts simultaneously acquired Tropicana's operating business and leased the casinos from GLPI for a total of $88 million per year.

Weeks later, GLPI completed a four-way deal that saw its two largest tenants combine into one, as Penn National acquired Pinnacle. GLPI also gained a new tenant in Boyd Gaming, which purchased the operations of three of Pinnacle's leased properties. In connection with the merger, GLPI acquired the real estate of Plainridge Park Casino from Penn National for $250 million, and lent $58 million to Boyd to acquire the real estate of Belterra Park. GLPI later acquired ownership of Belterra Park in satisfaction of the loan.

In April 2020, during the COVID-19 pandemic, Penn National faced the prospect of financial issues brought on by resort closures. As a result, it sold the real estate of the Tropicana Las Vegas to GLPI for $338 million in rent credits. Penn National would continue to operate the Tropicana for another two years, or until the resort were sold.

GLPI took ownership of Lumière Place from Caesars Entertainment (formerly Eldorado Resorts) in October 2020, in satisfaction of a $246 million loan.

In 2021, GLPI sold the operations of its two owned-and-operated casinos for a total of $59 million, to focus on its core business of real estate. The operating business of Hollywood Casino Perryville was sold to Penn National, while that of Hollywood Casino Baton Rouge was sold to Casino Queen.

In June 2021, GLPI added Bally's Corporation as a new tenant, purchasing the Dover Downs racino for $144 million. GLPI also agreed to sell the operations of the Tropicana Las Vegas to Bally's and to buy two other casinos from Bally's for $150 million, and obtained a right of first refusal to buy future casinos developed by Bally's. Two more properties (Bally's Tiverton and Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Biloxi) were acquired from Bally's in 2023 for $635 million. Another two properties (Bally's Kansas City and Bally's Shreveport) were bought in 2024 for $395 million. Bally's Twin River Lincoln was added in 2026 for $700 million.

In December 2021, GLPI reached a deal with the Cordish Companies to purchase three casino properties (Live Casino Philadelphia, Live Casino Maryland, and Live Casino Pittsburgh) for a total of $1.8 billion and lease them back for a total of $125 million per year, and to partner with Cordish in future casino projects. The purchase was completed in March 2022.

In 2023, GLPI purchased the land where the Hard Rock Casino was being built in Rockford, Illinois, for $100 million. In 2024, it acquired Tioga Downs, a racino in New York, for $175 million, and three small casinos in Nevada and South Dakota from Strategic Gaming Management, for $105 million. A fourth property, Sunland Park Racetrack & Casino, was purchased from Strategic Gaming in 2025 for $184 million.

Risk factors and legal proceedings

The risks Gaming and Leisure Properties names in Item 1A of its 10-K filed Feb 19, 2026: 39 risks under these headings, as written.18

  • The majority of our revenues are dependent on PENN and its subsidiaries. Any event that has a material adverse effect on PENN’s business, financial position or results of operations may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position or results of operations.
  • The bankruptcy or insolvency of any of our tenants could result in termination of such tenant's lease and material losses to us.
  • Our pursuit of investments in, and acquisitions or development of, additional properties may be unsuccessful or fail to meet our expectations.
  • We are dependent on the gaming industry and may be susceptible to the risks associated with it, which could materially adversely affect our business, financial position or results of operations.
  • Certain of our tenants operate and manage facilities that are located in areas that experience extreme weather conditions and are more sensitive to the adverse effects of climate change.
  • We face extensive regulation from gaming and other regulatory authorities.
  • Required regulatory approvals can delay or prohibit transfers of our gaming properties, which could result in periods in which we are unable to receive rent for such properties.
  • Our agreements to provide funding for various casino development projects expose us to risks of loss that are different from those associated with the ownership and leasing of properties.
  • We might not be able to exercise customary enforcement rights as the lender under our tribal loans.
  • Our pursuit of strategic acquisitions unrelated to the gaming industry may be unsuccessful or fail to meet our expectations.
  • We may experience uninsured or under insured losses, which could result in a significant loss of the capital we have invested in a property, decrease anticipated future revenues or cause us to incur unanticipated expense.
  • Environmental compliance costs and liabilities associated with real estate properties owned by us may materially impair the value of those investments.
The other 27 risks
  • We face risks associated with security breaches through cyber-attacks, cyber intrusions or otherwise, as well as other significant disruptions of our information technology (IT) networks and related systems.
  • If our tenants fail to detect fraud or theft, including by our tenants’ users and employees, our tenants, and, therefore, our reputation may suffer which could harm our tenants, and, therefore, our brand and reputation and negatively impact our tenants, and therefore, our business, financial condition and results of operations and can subject us to investigations and litigation.
  • Our long-term, triple-net leases include rent escalations over specified periods that in some instances are fixed or capped and will generally continue to apply regardless of the amount of cash flows generated by the properties subject to such lease agreements.
  • We face certain risks related to our properties that are subject to ground and use lease arrangements.
  • Uncertainty regarding and changes in U.S. trade policies and tariffs may increase costs and adversely affect our tenants’, and, therefore, our financial condition.
  • Our success depends on our ability to attract, motivate and retain key personnel and plan for future executive transitions.
  • If we do not qualify to be taxed as a REIT, or fail to remain qualified as a REIT, we will be subject to U.S. federal income tax as a regular corporation and could face a substantial tax liability, which may reduce the amount of cash available for distribution to our shareholders.
  • Qualifying as a REIT involves highly technical and complex provisions of the Code and violations of these provisions could jeopardize our REIT qualifications.
  • We could fail to qualify to be taxed as a REIT if income we receive from our tenants, or their subsidiaries, is not treated as qualifying income.
  • Dividends payable by REITs do not qualify for the reduced tax rates available for some dividends.
  • Changes to U.S. federal income tax laws could materially and adversely affect us and our shareholders.
  • REIT distribution requirements could adversely affect our ability to execute our business plan.
  • Even if we remain qualified as a REIT, we may face other tax liabilities that reduce our cash flow.
  • Complying with REIT requirements may cause us to forego otherwise attractive acquisition opportunities or liquidate otherwise attractive investments.
  • Complying with REIT requirements may limit our ability to hedge effectively and may cause us to incur tax liabilities.
  • Our charter restricts the ownership and transfer of our outstanding stock, which may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a transaction or change of control of our company.
  • Risks Related to Our Capital Structure
  • We have a material amount of indebtedness which could have a significant effect on our business.
  • We may have future capital needs and may not be able to obtain additional debt financing on acceptable terms.
  • Our shareholders may be subject to significant dilution caused by the additional issuance of equity securities.
  • Adverse changes in our credit rating may affect our borrowing capacity and borrowing terms.
  • If we cannot obtain additional capital, our growth may be limited.
  • An increase in market interest rates could increase our interest costs on existing and future debt and could adversely affect our stock price.
  • Covenants in our debt agreements may limit our operational flexibility, and a covenant breach or default could materially adversely affect our business, financial position or results of operations.
  • Pennsylvania law and provisions in our charter and bylaws may delay or prevent takeover attempts by third parties and therefore inhibit our shareholders from realizing a premium on their stock.
  • The market price of our common stock may be volatile, and holders of our common stock could lose a significant portion of their investment if the market price of our common stock declines.
  • Our recourse against Tropicana, including for any breaches under the Amended Real Estate Purchase Agreement or the Tropicana Merger Agreement, is limited.
  • PENN has contractual obligations to indemnify us for certain liabilities, including liabilities as successor in interest to Pinnacle. However, there can be no assurance that these indemnities will be sufficient to insure us against the full amount of such liabilities, or that PENN's ability to satisfy its and Pinnacle's indemnification obligations will not be impaired in the future.

Legal proceedings

The Company is subject to various legal and administrative proceedings relating to personal injuries, employment matters, commercial transactions and other matters arising in the normal course of business. The Company does not believe that the financial outcome of these matters will have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations. In addition, the Company maintains what it believes is adequate insurance coverage to further mitigate the risks of such proceedings and requires its tenants to carry insurance and defend and indemnify the Company from and against any claims or liabilities. However, such proceedings can be costly, time consuming and unpredictable and, therefore, no assurance can be given that the final outcome of such proceedings may not materially impact the Company's consolidated financial condition or results of operations. Further, no assurance can be given that the amount or scope of existing insurance coverage carried by the Company or its tenants will be sufficient to cover losses arising from such matters.
