Thanks, Joe. Good morning, everyone, and thanks for joining us for our second quarter earnings call. We hope you and your families are remaining healthy and safe. As you'll see from the strong results we released this morning, we've definitely come a long way since our last earnings call when all of our properties were shut down. But these continue to be uncertain times for all of us, and our heartfelt thanks go out to all the health care workers, first responders who are still out there on the front line battling this pandemic every day. Here to present with me this morning is our Chief Financial Officer, Dave Williams, who, as you know, joined us on March 3 from Apple and has been on this rollercoaster ride with us ever since. I'm also joined this morning by other members of our senior executive team who are here and available to help answer your questions. To begin with, I want to emphasize how proud I am of the way our corporate and property leadership teams and all of our team members have responded to the unprecedented challenges presented to us over the last several months. Since our last call, we've managed to resume operations at more than 95% of our properties. And with yesterday's opening of Greektown in Detroit, all but Zia Park in New Mexico and Tropicana Resort in Las Vegas are operational today. And everyone has worked tirelessly alongside our state regulators and public health officials to implement comprehensive health and sanitation protocols that put the safety of our team members and valued guests first. Our team members are truly the lifeblood of our company, and while some remain furloughed, given the ongoing capacity restrictions and limited amenities at our properties, we recently announced that we've extended their…

Thanks, Jay, and good morning, everyone. While our properties were closed in April and the beginning of May, we took decisive actions to solidify our liquidity position, materially reduce costs and reimagine how our properties could operate. When we began reopening our properties in May, we opened with a more efficient and profitable operating model, both at our properties and at corporate. While May and June results may have benefited in part from pent-up demand, we continue to be highly encouraged by revenue and EBITDAR trends in July and August despite the continuation of safety protocols, including capacity restrictions and social distancing mandates. During their respective reopening periods through June 30, our properties saw a cumulative 1,300 basis points EBITDAR margin expansion and a 33% growth in adjusted EBITDAR compared to the prior year. These results were driven by stronger-than-expected revenues, coupled with an aggressive reduction in operating expenses across the company. I'm extremely impressed by our highly talented operating teams who are delivering exceptional performance during these challenging times. Although all but 2 of our casinos are now open, we will continue to be disciplined in our capital expenditures. We spent $14.5 million on maintenance CapEx in Q2 and approximately $16 million on project CapEx related to Morgantown and York. We anticipate resuming construction at both Morgantown and York later this year, with a projected opening date for both in the second half of 2021. This quarter, we issued $330.5 million of convertible debt and an additional $345 million in an equity raise, which significantly improved our balance sheet and provided additional liquidity. Since reopening, I am pleased to report that each of our properties has generated positive EBITDAR. And as of early June, the company as a whole began generating positive free cash flow and continues to grow cash balances as a result of our operations. Our ending Q2 cash balance was approximately $1.2 billion, with a net debt balance of $2.0 billion. This improved liquidity provides well over 12 months of operating cash in the very unlikely event of another full company closure and zero-revenue environment. We are also confident that our improved balance sheet provides ample liquidity to support the launch of our interactive products over the coming months. With that, I turn it back over to Jay.

Thanks, Dave. The outstanding results to date at our reopened properties highlight our unique strategic position as a best-in-class operator of market-leading regional properties, which have rebounded more quickly than casinos in destination markets. Although visitation has yet to return to pre-COVID levels, in large part due to state-mandated capacity restrictions and limited amenities, spend per visit has been notably strong, up 45%, resulting in better-than-expected revenues. And importantly, we've seen a significant increase in unrated play and growth from a younger demographic. This coincides well with our efforts to implement cashless and contactless initiatives and other technology enhancements at our properties as soon as possible. Dave mentioned the strength of our margins driven by our operating efficiencies. Importantly, we believe a meaningful portion of these margin improvements will be recurring as we continue to make fundamental changes to improve our offerings and efficiencies across our organization. On our last call, we stated that we needed to achieve approximately 95% of 2019 revenue to achieve approximately 100% of 2019 EBITDAR. Given the continuing cost-mitigation efforts in our reimagined operating model, we now believe that we can achieve 2019 EBITDAR level with just around 90% of 2019 revenues. And while we are very pleased with our property operating performance, we are most excited about the potential for significant long-term growth and value creation through our highly differentiated omnichannel strategy. To that end, we look forward to the launch of our Barstool Sportsbook mobile app in September here in Pennsylvania. We think Barstool's loyal followers and our existing casino guests will agree it's unlike anything in the market today. Meanwhile, our Hollywood-branded real-money iCasino product in Pennsylvania continues to grow nicely even after the reopening of our casinos the last couple of months, with a meaningful portion of our revenues coming from our inactive database. Our proven ability to convert our casino database, together with our partnership with Barstool Sports, will provide significant organic customer acquisition and cross-sell opportunities. In sum, we believe we are extremely well positioned to capture an outsized share of the growing U.S. sports betting and iCasino market. In closing, let me say that despite the ongoing uncertainties with this pandemic, we're extremely excited for the future and believe all the seeds we planted throughout 2020 will provide a strong foundation for new growth and opportunity ahead. So with that, I'd like to open up the call to questions.

[Operator Instructions] Our first question comes from Joe Greff with JPMorgan.

Nice results to you all. Jay, you mentioned in the press release earlier that, so far in July and August, results were encouraging. I was hoping maybe you can break that out in 2 pieces for us, and maybe in relation to how you described the reopened properties and June performance. So the properties that reopened in June, let's call them the phase 1 properties. So the revenues were down 6%, EBITDA up 33% in that period in June, how did they perform relative to those metrics in July? And then for those properties that opened up in July, for their respective periods, let's call them the phase 2 properties, how did they perform relative to that EBITDA and revenue performance that you referenced in June?

Sure, Joe. And the numbers that we quoted in the release are really -- those are May and June, combined. So there are some properties, Mississippi, Louisiana, that opened in May. So that's the period of time they were open, whether it was May, June or just June, year-over-year for that quarter. Here's what I would say to answer your question is that we continue to be encouraged. I've been really blown away at just how stable the ongoing operating performance has been across the portfolio, with very few exceptions. Fourth of July weekend was a little light, and I think that probably was just due to a fear of being in big crowds. And so when you look at -- Fourth of July is typically a busy, busy weekend for us. And this year, it was -- it did not match up well to last year. But as soon as Fourth of July weekend was over, we were right back for the rest of July and so far in August, looking very much like what we saw in the months of May and June. The numbers aren't going to match up perfectly because you have properties that opened in June and then that opened in July. And the gaming tax rates are different, and the competitive set is different. So it's not going to be exactly what you saw for May and June. But it's a lot closer to what you saw in May and June, and we put it in our release, than maybe what others had in mind that there was going to be this significant drop-off after the first week or the first 2 weeks. Our properties, honestly, that have been opened the longest, which is Mississippi and Louisiana, are still producing some of the strongest results in the portfolio on a year-over-year basis.

Helpful. And do you actually opened or reopened the Tropicana? And I was -- maybe, Dave, you can help us with the monthly cash burn at the Trop and Zia Park as well as at corporate, and that will be it for me.

Yes. So we plan, Joe, right now, to open the Tropicana property in September. There's a lot of moving parts. Every day, we're learning. And our team on the ground there is continuing to do competitive assessments in terms of ADR and RevPAR, occupancy. And so we're going to be really thoughtful around when and how we reopen. As of right now, September feels right, but we have several more weeks to nail down an exact date. And if it's not right, then we'll wait a little bit longer to reopen until it is right. It's just -- these are fluid times. Everything is dynamic. And I'm not sure, Dave, if we have the exact cash burn for Trop and Zia Park, but feel free to jump in there.

Well, yes, Jay. And thanks, Joe. Well, we don't really give specific property answers. So what I will tell you is that even with those properties closed, as a company, we're cash flow-positive.

Our next question comes from Felicia Hendrix with Barclays.

Dave, I'll start with you. If you just look at the OpEx per day in your various segments, is there any significant difference? Is there any way we should look at it differently? Or can we just use a similar metric across the board? And if you could just talk about that now that you're up and running. I know you gave us the 1,300 basis point improvement, so we could kind of back into it. But if you can add anything to that would be great.

Felicia, I'm going to grab that one because I figured this question would come up, and it has on previous calls of our competitors. And here, I think we've given you guys everything you need when we say that, one, we've given you the results for May, June, which I think is helpful. And then I think, more importantly, as you're looking at how to model this as you move forward, I said in my prepared remarks that we believe we can get to 100% of pre-COVID level or, call it, 2019 level EBITDAR on 90% or approximately 90% of pre-COVID level or 2019 revenue. So I think that's going to give you everything that you need to back into an OpEx per day or whatever you need for modeling purposes.

Okay. And then, Jay, on a lot of these calls, everyone has been asking if the performance you're seeing is sustainable. And I think you've talked about that, and everybody has talked about that. So I just have a bit of a different question. And that is, as you mentioned, May and June were what they were. And other than July 4, things are kind of continuing. But what does it take to see an increase in this environment? Or should we just kind of expect this stability for now? And I know it's August 6, but have you seen any change at all since the unemployment insurance benefits have essentially ended until Congress can pass a new program?

It's a great question, and I don't know that any of us truly know the answer, Felicia, in terms of what needs to happen for this to get better, or what needs to happen for the trends to change to the downside, and what happens if the stimulus checks stop or reduced from where they've been over the last several months. And we don't know the answer either. I think there's a lot of factors in play here. There's no doubt that the unemployment benefits are a tailwind. I think we're also obviously benefiting because one of the things that we're seeing, Felicia, is that our unrated business is up almost 15% year-over-year on a large base of business. So there's a lot of new customers coming in. And when you look at the rated database we have, and you look between 21 and 45 years old, that's also where we're seeing very strong growth of 25% year-over-year. So there's a lot of new people coming into our facilities. We're obviously very active in getting a card in their hands. And we feel like there's an opportunity for us as we move forward to convert those guests into long-term loyal customers. And we're taking advantage of this time where there really are more limited entertainment options. Movie theaters aren't open, and sporting events are with no crowd, and there's no concerts. And so you're looking -- people are looking for things to do, and I think that's part of why the spend per visit and time per visit has been so strong as when people get out of the house and they're in a safe environment. And they can do something fun, they're spending more time and more money doing that. We've actually seen our oldest segments of the database,…

And Jay, with these younger visitors that you're converting to mychoice, think you're putting cards in their hands, how does that tie into your expectations that you put out in that omnichannel presentation in May when you were talking about the Barstool app, and your goal to convert 5 million of the -- or I guess 5% of the Barstool audience and then 5 million of your active mychoice members, which -- that amounts to about 25%? So that seems a little kind of not optimistic but maybe not super easy, right? So now that you have kind of the younger folks coming in, does that make you feel better about those objectives?

Well, I always felt good. So I guess this just reinforces how I felt. And here's what I would say about that, Felicia. The mychoice program and Todd George and our team; Jennifer Weissmann, our Chief Marketing Officer; Erika Nardini at Barstool, we're talking regularly about the evolution of mychoice. And mychoice, we believe, is going to be -- it's closed now, but we believe it's going to be the strongest loyalty program in the space because it's going to be the only program that is wholly owned by the operator. And we deploy on wholly owned channels of business. That's going to be deployed in all of our brick-and-mortar casinos. Greektown, we're going to go live in October, so then we'll be 41 out of 41. mychoice is already connected to our social gaming products. It's already connected to our online casino, real-money wagering in Pennsylvania. And by the end of this calendar year, we're going to have it also part of our Barstool Sportsbook app. It won't be at launch, but it will be before the end of this calendar year. So as you think about how that program evolves, it's not going to be maybe as most loyalty programs in the casino space have been for many, many decades, where it gets you freebies, it's a free buffet or it's cash back at the machine. And I think you're going to see the offerings and the experiences that we're allowing people to use their earned points to redeem are going to be tied in very well. We love the name mychoice because it really is whatever you want, you can get. And there's going to be Barstool merchandise and opportunities to go to special events with Barstool personalities. And so this younger demographic that we're seeing sign…

Our next question comes from Thomas Allen with Morgan Stanley.

Congrats on the strong execution in the quarter. Just a few questions on the Barstool Sportsbook app. As you get closer to launch, can you just talk about some of the things you're most excited about? Also, what's holding it back from launching? I think there was some hope it was going to launch in August. And obviously, the NFL season opener is September 10, hopefully. What's stopping it from coming out earlier?

Well, let me start with the second part first, Thomas. We want -- what's important to us is getting this right. I would tell you that the beta of the app is in my hands and my executive team's hands and the executives at Barstool's hands right now. I was on it way too late last night and joined myself. It's a fantastic product. So look, we want to make sure that we launch this and that -- you get one chance to make a first impression. So what's more important, rushing it to get to some MLB and NBA games in August, or doing this right, launching it in September, when we know it's going to deliver a great experience, UI/UX, for the end user, that's -- we're in this for the long game. So the difference between August and September -- would it be nice to be open now or be live now because there's some pent-up demand? Sure. And by the way, we're seeing great pent-up demand in our retail sportsbooks last week. And I think our sports betting handle was up 60% year-over-year for the 2 days over the weekend. So that demand is going to be there. And if we miss a few games in August, but we're ready for football season in September, while MLB is still going, knocking on wood, of course, NBA playoffs, this is a heck of a time to be launching your app because we're launching. Others have had theirs launched, and we're very bullish about how our app is going to compare to the top apps in the marketplace. And what are we most excited about? Look, we're excited that we've taken our time to launch because we're going to launch a very competitive product, with things like traveling…

I think we're all excited. And if you need some more testers for the beta, I'm coming over. Just some follow-ups. Just on the iCasino customers you are seeing, can you just talk a little bit about what they're playing? And any other thoughts or recent thoughts on kind of the cross-sell opportunity between iCasino and sportsbook customers?

Yes. Well, it's a great question. And we've been surprised, honestly, because the iCasino customer skew is younger than our brick-and-mortar customer. Our brick-and-mortar customer is more of that 55 average age range. And we're seeing, for online casino, it's closer to 45. We've been surprised that the percentage of play on slots versus tables has been pretty similar to our brick-and-mortar casinos. We thought it would skew a lot more table game-centric, and we haven't seen that yet. So we're encouraged by that because I think there's some newer slot product that obviously is not just targeting customers over 55, but there's Gen Xers that are engaging with these slot products as well. And look, this is something -- the second part of your question is, this is our strategy, right? And we think that if you're excited about the stack IPOs of DraftKings, for example, which is a pure sports betting online play, we bring omnichannel to the table, which we feel really good about for the reasons I mentioned earlier. And then, recently, there's been a couple of stack IPOs, which are much more focused on online casino, that being Golden Nugget and Rush Street. The beauty of Penn's strategy, in our partnership and ownership structure with Barstool, is that you really get the best of all of that, where we have a very compelling sports brands to lead with. We have a database and access to 66 million sports enthusiasts, over 60% of which we know bet on sports and over 40% are avid sports betters, those that are significant Barstool loyalists today. And so if you think about our ability, like I think DraftKings and FanDuel have successfully done in New Jersey, to convert those sports betters to online casino products, it works. And we've…

Our next question comes from Steve Wieczynski with Stifel.

Jay, you've talked about how that revenue base now needs to be at 90% of 2019 levels. Obviously, that's down from 95%. So I guess the question is, where could that number go? And what levers do you still have to pull to drive that number lower, if you can get it lower? And I understand it's not going to get, let's say, into the 60s, given the rental payments. But is that a number that could eventually get into the mid-80s as time goes on?

Well, let's see, Steve. Let's see how this plays out. Todd and I talk about this daily. And we wouldn't put 90% out there if we weren't comfortable with 90%. So let's sort of leave it at that. And there are a lot of it -- there's a lot of variables, right? It depends on what -- how great can margins be? Well, it depends what do your sustained revenue levels look like. We have a good sense as to what our cost structure is going to be as we move forward. And I look at our major competitors in regional gaming, and I think that listening to their earnings calls and what they're saying publicly, there's a big focus on margin improvement and really taking this opportunity to create structural change. And so reimagine what the industry has always done, those orthodoxies of you have to have a buffet and you have to comp the buffet, it's open every day for 3 meals and promotional credits, you have to do this and you have to reinvest at these percentages. I think we whiteboarded everything. I think our competitors are doing -- going through a similar exercise. And so it's not to say that, in a particular market where we compete against a privately owned operator, if they do something different, we may have to think about what we do there. But as you think about broadly across our portfolio of properties, most of these changes that we've made, with very few exceptions, we believe we can carry forward into the future and not look back. And we're encouraged by that. That's obviously how we think about vendor relationships and what we've learned when more properties were shut down, and how we can enhance those vendor relationships, how we think…

Got you. And specifically with marketing and advertising, obviously, those remained very depressed right now in terms of your spend levels. But I wonder how you guys think about turning that back on. When do you actually make that decision to start getting more aggressive on those fronts? And then that brings the next question of, do you fear that, all of a sudden, certain markets start to get overly promotional?

I just -- Steve, again, as we sit here today, based on how we're thinking about the business and what I'm hearing generally in the space, I just don't see that happening. I'm not going to say ever, but do I see that happening in the next year, 2 years? I don't. And I think that even in terms of advertising and promotional spend, a lot of that was done in paid media, TV and radio. And I just -- there's more efficient ways to do business. And we're much more focused on sort of surgical digital opportunities. That's where eyeballs are. That's where we want to be. And honestly, Barstool has really helped us think differently about this. And they're a sports and digital media company. They know, they understand digital advertising as well as any company on the planet. And so we're thinking about things differently, not just for our brick-and-mortar, but of course, the launch of our sports betting app and our online casino apps and products. So yes. I mean this is -- it really is a true reimagining. I think this is a once-in-a-career opportunity for companies to really challenge and question everything they've historically done and figure out what's the best model going forward. And we're certainly doing that at Penn.

Our next question comes from Shaun Kelley with Bank of America.

And Jay, I -- totally, I'm going to beat the dead horse here. So please keep this answer maybe shorter. But just -- I'm going to ask the same question that I think Steve just asked but slightly differently. So if we look at the 90% number that you gave, I think the way we back into it, that sort of implies a 300, 350 basis points of sort of margin improvement on those 2019 levels. So the question I want to ask is, like, if we're seeing 1,300 basis points at, granted, some -- just a select number of properties that are reopened today, yet we're sort of thinking that $300 million or $400 might be sustainable, what's the difference? Is it primarily marketing dollars because we haven't relayered in any of those promotions and some of those will naturally come back? Or is it operating expenses because visitation levels are lower, we're just getting this much, much higher productivity that you don't think is sustainable? Or is it something else? Just kind of, specifically, what's the difference in the -- a, because that still seems like it's a pretty wide margin of differential if we think about it the way we laid it out.

Yes. It is, Shaun. And I think your math is right. I would say there's really -- there's 2 things that I think about for why we're going to stick with 90% today, and we'll update you as we move forward is that, one, it's early. It's been, in some cases, 1 month; in some cases, 2 months; and in the best case, it's been 3 months, in the case of Mississippi and Louisiana. So that -- it's just -- it's early. I don't want us to get over our skis and make promises that we can't keep. So we felt like we could make a commitment today to 90%, and we'll see where it goes. And then #2, you're seeing spend per visit up 45%. Do I think that's going to last forever? I don't. I think you're probably going to see a higher spend per visit as we move forward for a lot of the reasons that we've talked about today. But is it going to be 45%? I don't know. That would be great if it is. And you're going to eventually see more volumes of customers come back. I think you're going to see visitation levels at some point, whether it's when there's a vaccine or effective treatments. Or whatever those variables are, you're going to see visitation continue to grow. And when there's more bodies in the building, naturally, your cost structure is going to creep up a little bit. So those are the primary reasons. I wouldn't get hung up on why only this and could it be that. Let's see how things play out. You know where we were for May and June. We've said July and August have looked a lot like May and June, with the exception of the Fourth of July weekend. And we'll keep you posted as we move forward.

Great. That's perfect. And then the follow-up question I have is, obviously, you've talked a lot -- as we think about Barstool, you've talked a lot about the 66 million uniques. There was some commentary about discontinued, I think, strong engagement, some of the podcasting efforts in the press release. I know that -- or I think that, that 66 million number is fairly dated. Any chance we could get an update on what that looks like today? Or any other color -- some other color you could provide if we can't get the hard data?

Well, it's a great question. That's the number we've been using, we're going to continue to use. I think we all know the Barstool brand has grown since the time that we started using that number. It's a Nielsen number, and it changes daily. It depends on what they have going on in a particular day or particular month. So I wouldn't change that number as we sit here today. What I can share, and I think these stats are pretty amazing, as you look at the social platforms for Barstool, this is for the month of June of this year: Instagram followers, up 49% year-over-year to 46 million followers; Twitter, up 49% to 23 million followers; TikTok, they didn't even -- they weren't engaged with last year because TikTok was just launching, 16 million followers on TikTok in the month of June for Barstool; podcast, up 40% to 9 million; Snapchat, up 37%. So look, this is a brand that we knew was great from a partnership standpoint, from a loyalty, a fan standpoint. And who would have known Dave Portnoy would be interviewing the President of the United States? And Davy Day Trader -- and the brand has just gotten bigger. And Big Cat's playing video games, with hundreds of thousands of people watching during COVID quarantine. They're so creative, and they're just maniacal about entertainment and trying to make sure that they bring some level of levity. Not everyone loves it. But they do bring levity, and it's irreverent, and it's satirical oftentimes. But they are really talented, and I think they have done an amazing job, during a time when there were no sports, of growing their brand in significant ways. So I would just tell you, and sort of where your question was leading, the number is obviously bigger than when it was we first started using that number. I just don't have anything official in front of me to share with you on what it is today.

Our next question comes from Barry Jonas with Truist Securities.

Just to start with a follow-up on margins. Really strong margin expansion. Just curious what the range is by property. Is it wide? Or are there any call-outs, whether it's geography, property type? Any other characteristics that vary as we think about that margin expansion?

Yes. Barry, I would say there's some outliers to the good and to the bad. But what we're sharing with you is within a very tight range for the vast majority of our properties. And there's competitive reasons why some might be higher and some might be lower. But if you were to look across the portfolio, I think you would see that 50% to 65% of them are within a very tight range within -- very close to what we shared today on the revenues, down 6; and EBITDAR, up 33%; and margins, up 1,300. That's not -- it's not being driven by 1 or 2 properties. It's really being driven by the bulk of the portfolio.

Fantastic. And then just on the cashless contract growth initiatives. What are your expectations longer term about -- from maybe the medium and the longer term about adoption by players? Do you think this is really additive or more a substitute for cash?

Well, I think it's -- well, there's a lot of ways to answer that. I -- there are very few places that you go to today in your life, grocery stores, forms of entertainment, bars, restaurants, where people are transacting in cash. And when I say people, that's not 21-year olds. That's not 44-year olds. That's not 58-year olds. It's not 72-year olds. It's everybody. Everybody has debit cards and credit cards. And I think it's just an expectation. So this is something that we have to do as an industry, or else it's going to hurt our opportunity to engage with younger customers, and to keep our existing customers. The days of going to ATMs and getting cash out to buy in at a blackjack table -- I love playing blackjack, been doing it for my adult life, I'll say, over 21. No one enjoys going to an ATM and doing that. So I think that this is something customers are asking for. It's something that regulators are very open to, and I think certainly seeing the light now more than ever because they're hearing it from customers, too. "I don't want to deal with cash." And we spend millions and millions and millions and millions of dollars across the company, moving cash, tracking cash, sending cash, collecting cash, storing cash every day. And you can imagine the sort of efficiencies that it creates, while, at the same time, making it a better guest experience. We can't move fast enough on this as an industry.

And our next question comes from Chad Beynon with Macquarie.

I wanted to go back to sports and iGaming. Jay, I know, in the past, you've talked about potential goals about more vertical integration around the tech stack. And I know it's early in your resources with Kambi and White Hat on the onboarding side, I think, have been pretty successful. But I know you're building out your staff in-house with engineers. Are there places in the tech stack where you might find more vertically integrated opportunities, whether it's on the casino content side, with slots or blackjack, or anything else on the sports side to come?

Yes. Great question, Chad. And look, our focus right now, as you can imagine, is let's launch this app in Pennsylvania next month as successfully as possible. And we feel like we have the right technology partners in Kambi and White Hat. We feel like we have a fantastic team of engineers and product developers and operators, customer service folks that are going to support the launch and the further development of that app. And so that's really the focus right now. Are there opportunities down the road to think about vertical -- more vertically integrating technology? Absolutely. We have those conversations, but it's not something that we're focused on imminently. We've been -- our approach on this, Chad, has been and, again, why we took as long as we did to launch the app is that, one, we didn't want an off-the-shelf product that wasn't going to be competitive. We want to take the time to make sure we have proprietary features and functionality and content integration with Barstool that differentiated our products. And we want to own any aspect of what touches the end user, and that's what we're doing today. Now does it make sense to go even more vertically on sort of back end and risk management trading services? Maybe. Maybe not. Maybe that's an area that we say others can just do it better than we can, and so we'd rather not expend energy and resources on that. But we feel good about the strategy and the tech stack today. I think more to come in future quarters in terms of how that thinking evolves.

Okay. And then on the land-based side, do you have a best estimate in terms of what percentage of units have been active since your properties have reopened? And do you believe you have the right amount of products, too much, too little? How does this kind of fold into how the casino floor on the land-based side will look from a product standpoint post pandemic?

Well, I think I've said this a couple of times in past calls that this 50% of capacity limitation really only becomes an issue for us on the busiest of hours on weekends, or a busy holiday weekend like Fourth of July, certainly, it was a factor. But if you look at sort of day in, day out, it's a nonissue on weekdays across the company. And it's really a nonissue on most of the weekend, other than those peak hours of 7 to 10 p.m. on Friday and Saturday night. So the way we're thinking about it is a lot of our properties, they were built decades ago, and they were built with -- in a very different competitive environment. There was a lot less supply in state and neighboring states. So our casino floors are plenty big to handle the busiest of days, the busiest of hours on New Year's Eve and then some. And so our ability to continue to take products off the floor, let's say, even if we have the ability to reopen 100% of our floors, I think you'd find that our focus is going to be on comfort and safety. And maybe you don't end up reopening 100% of your games. You open up 100% of your floors, but you space everything out in social distancing, or a more socially distanced approach and experience is what we create. Todd and our GMs and our regionals are working on that every day. We've done that somewhat. So far, there's a lot more opportunity to enhance the experience for people once we don't have those limitations, or they've been relaxed more than they are today.

All right. Mr. Snowden, I'll turn the call back over to you for any final remarks.

No final remarks here. I think -- why don't we take one more question. I think we're a few minutes before the hour, and let's just do one more, if we have someone.

Our next question comes from John DeCree with Union Gaming Group.

I think you've covered pretty much and off the ground so forgive me if it's -- this is a little bit more granular. But you had spoken earlier about the database engagement in Pennsylvania on the Hollywood real-money product, I was wondering if you could give us a little context. I think you've mentioned maybe 20,000-or-so customers have played online, curious if that's half or a large portion of the customers you've seen come through the Hollywood casino since launch? I know it's only been a short time, but I'm curious how that stacked out to your expectations and to the overall mix of either users or revenue coming from the database so far.

Yes. No, it's a great question, John. It's still early innings, obviously, right? So we're learning and analyzing the data as we go. Here's the way to think about it. I know I'd be a little bit off on these percentages, but roughly 1/3 of the guests of that 20,000 are database customers that were inactive or dormant. Roughly 1/3 were database customers that were active with us at our brick-and-mortar casinos. And roughly 1/3 that engaged with us of that 20,000 over the quarantine period, only online, were new customers. And we're obviously getting cards in their hands as we go. So we've been, I would say, pleasantly surprised, given that our paid media behind Hollywood Casino online in PA is virtually nothing. We've really focused on activating our database, activating at the properties to enhance the exposure of Hollywood Casino online. And so the fact that 2/3 of our engaged users are either dormant or new to the company is really, I think, encouraging. And the 1/3 of customers that were engaged with us actively at the casinos and are now engaged with us also online, we're seeing their total spend with Penn significantly higher than it was when it was only spent at the brick-and-mortar. So their year-over-year spend, much like I shared in the stats that I mentioned earlier, is a lot higher when you combine their online revenue as well as the brick-and-mortar revenue and spend. So yes, I would say we're encouraged. I mean it's early. It's one state. It's just online casino. We haven't launched Barstool yet. And what does it look like when you start cross-selling your sports betters to online casino? We'll learn a lot more. I think your question is a good one, and we have limited to share, but we'll share more on future calls.

I appreciate all the additional color, Jay. I think you answered my follow-up on marketing. So I'll leave it at that. And congratulations on all the work you've done so far.

Great, John. Thank you for your questions. And that's it for our call. Thank you for dialing in. I know it's challenging times. We're, like everyone else as a company, figuring out how to navigate this as we go. I could not be more proud of how the company has stepped up from top to bottom, everybody in the company. No complaints. What can I do to help us move forward? And couldn't be more proud to be leading this company. So thank you for dialing in, and we look forward to speaking with you next quarter.

That does conclude the conference call for today. We thank you for your participation, and we ask that you please disconnect your lines.
