Hall of Fame Resort & Entertainment Company
Announces First Quarter 2024 Results
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
CANTON, Ohio (May 13, 2024) – Hall
of Fame Resort & Entertainment Company (NASDAQ: HOFV, HOFVW) (the “Company”), the only resort, entertainment and media
company centered around the power of professional football, announced its first quarter 2024 results for the period ended March 31, 2024.
“The first quarter reflects our stated commitment
to flatten seasonality and grow our business. Within the Village, the team has done a great job in diversifying the types and timing of
events we host, adding new tenant experiences, and focusing on the necessary capital sources to continue with the development of our Gameday
Bay Waterpark and Hilton Tapestry Hotel. Our Media vertical continues to create new content development, which has allowed us to have
more shows in distribution on multiple platforms this year compared to the prior year”. Crawford went on to say, “while we
continue to build the necessary infrastructure to support revenue growth, we remain focused on maximizing every dollar spent. The results
for the first quarter highlight a significant step towards strengthening expense management processes, which will allow the company to
reach stabilization quicker. While the macro-environment remains uncertain, the Company continues to focus on investing to create
unique experiences for our guests to enjoy and drive positive results for our shareholders”.
Key Financial Highlights
| ● | First quarter revenue was $4.2 million, an increase of 34% compared to the same period in the prior year,
primarily driven by continued operationalization of Hall of Fame Village through event and rental revenue. |
| ● | First quarter net loss attributable to shareholders was $14.9 million, compared to a net loss of $19.6
million in the same period in the prior year, primarily driven by decreased operating expenses and partially offset by increased interest
expense. |
| ● | First
quarter adjusted EBITDA was a loss of $2.9 million, compared to a loss of $10.9 million in the same period in the prior year. The change
was driven by decreased operating expenses including compensation-related expenses and third-party services in conjunction with the prior
year period including several non-recurring items. See page 6 for a reconciliation of net loss to EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA. |
| ● | The Company finished its fiscal quarter with a cash balance of $6.9 million, including $4.2 million in
restricted cash, compared to $11.8 million, including $8.6 million in restricted cash, as of December 31, 2023. |
Key Business Highlights
| ● | Hall of Fame Village hosted many large events including events in the Center for Performance ranging from
the ForeverLawn Faith Leadership Event with headline speakers Craig Groeschel and Tim Tebow, conventions and trade shows, and sporting
leagues and cheerleading events. The variety and type of events and subsequent increased attendance has allowed us to benefit from our
synergistic revenue model. |
| ● | Opened several new tenants within Hall of Fame Village with Driven Elite Fitness facility located within
the Constellation Center for Excellence and Driven Elite Performance situated in the Center for Performance along with Heggy’s Nut
Shop, a beloved brand renowned throughout Stark County for its premier-quality snacks. |
| ● | The Company finalized an audit of campus wide operating systems with plans to implement this year, which
will enhance revenue maximization, improve operational efficiencies, all with a focus on creating a world class visitor experience. |
| ● | The Company has accelerated its expense management processes, which have saved hundreds of thousands of
dollars annually to date. The continued investments in the processes will allow for the Company to reach stabilization more quickly. |
| ● | Hall of Fame Village has announced numerous large events and has curated an exciting full year calendar
of entertainment and engagement options. These events range from eight-time Grammy Award winner Carrie Underwood performing at the Concert
for Legends in August during the annual weeklong Enshrinement Festival to Bert Kreischer’s Fully Loaded Comedy Festival in
June and GridIron Gateway Gaming Tournament in July. Tom Benson Hall of Fame Stadium will also be the home for the Opendorse Bowl Series
featuring four Division III conferences this winter. |

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company reports its financial results in accordance
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) and corresponding metrics as non-GAAP financial
measures. The press release includes references to the following non-GAAP financial measures: EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA. These are important
financial measures used in the management of the business, including decisions concerning the allocation of resources and assessment of
performance. Management believes that reporting these non-GAAP financial measures is useful to investors as these measures are representative
of the company’s performance and provide improved comparability of results. See the table below for the definitions of the non-GAAP
financial measures referred to above and corresponding reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable GAAP
financial measures. Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed as additions to, and not as alternatives for the Company’s results
prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, the non-GAAP measures the Company uses may differ from non-GAAP measures used by other
companies, and other companies may not define the non-GAAP measures the company uses in the same way.
