"We are pleased to report another quarter with growth in revenue. All our properties posted solid results in the third quarter, with the single exception of Calgary, Canada. Even though that casino saw table drop increase significantly, by 58%, and also slot coin-in by 8%, lower hold percentages as well as a decrease in food and beverage and bowling revenues, coupled with higher marketing costs, led to a decline in Adjusted EBITDA at the property. Nevertheless, we are optimistic about the Calgary market and are focusing on implementing changes that will raise guests' gaming experience and promote further operating efficiencies to improve the results at our property in Calgary," said Erwin Haitzmann and Peter Hoetzinger, Co Chief Executive Officers of Century Casinos. "We are pleased to announce the potential purchase of an additional 33% share of Casinos Poland Ltd and we continue to actively pursue domestic and international casino opportunities," they continued.

Items deducted from or added to earnings from operations to arrive at net earnings include interest income, interest expense and gains/losses on foreign currency transactions.
Overall, the increase in earnings from operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 compared to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 is due to increased efforts to attract customers, generate additional revenue and control costs and a decrease in depreciation expense due to fully depreciated assets in Edmonton and Central City.
*Amounts presented are rounded. As such, rounding differences could occur in period over period changes and percentages reported.

* The Company definesAdjusted EBITDA as net earnings (loss) before interest, income taxes, depreciation, amortization, pre-opening expenses, non-cash stock based compensation charges, asset impairment costs, gains (losses) on disposition of fixed assets, discontinued operations, realized foreign currency gains (losses) and certain other one-time items. Intercompany transactions consisting primarily of management and royalty fees and interest, along with their related tax effects, are excluded from the presentation of net earnings and Adjusted EBITDA reported for each property. Not all of the aforementioned items occur in each reporting period, but have been included in the definition based on historical activity. These adjustments have no effect on the consolidated results as reported under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("US GAAP"). Adjusted EBITDA is not considered a measure of performance recognized under US GAAP. Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA is a valuable measure of the relative performance of its properties and the Company. The gaming industry commonly uses Adjusted EBITDA as a method of arriving at the economic value of a casino operation. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA to compare the relative operating performance of separate operating units by eliminating the above mentioned items associated with the varying levels of capital expenditures for infrastructure required to generate revenue, and the often high cost of acquiring existing operations. EBITDA (Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) is used by the Company's lending institution to gauge operating performance. The Company's computation of Adjusted EBITDA may be different from, and therefore may not be comparable to, similar measures used by other companies within the gaming industry. Please see the reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net earnings (loss) above.
