Overview Canterbury Park Holding Corporation (the “Company,” “we,” “our,” or “us”) is the holding company for and parent company of two subsidiaries, Canterbury Park Entertainment LLC (“Canterbury Entertainment”) and Canterbury Development LLC (“Canterbury Development”) and an indirect subsidiary Canterbury Park Concessions, Inc. which is wholly-owned by Canterbury Entertainment. As used herein, the term “Company” or “we” includes Canterbury Park Holding Corporation and its subsidiaries unless the context indicates otherwise. We divide our business into four segments: (i) horse racing, (ii) Casino, (iii) food and beverage, and (iv) real estate development. The horse racing segment represents our pari-mutuel wagering operations on simulcast and live horse races; the Casino segment represents our unbanked card operations; the food and beverage segment includes concessions, catering, and events and services provided at the Racetrack; and the real estate development segment represents our real estate development operations. We conduct our (i) horse racing, (ii) Casino, and (iii) food and beverage segments through Canterbury Entertainment. We conduct our real estate development segment through Canterbury Development. In 2023, we developed a five-year strategic plan focused on growing Casino revenue. As part of our execution on the five-year strategic plan, we are actively evaluating new opportunities that would diversify and grow our business, including through potential strategic transactions and initiatives. Canterbury Park Entertainment Through Canterbury Entertainment, we host pari-mutuel wagering on thoroughbred and quarter horse races and “unbanked” card games at our Canterbury Park Racetrack and Casino facility (the “Racetrack”) in Shakopee, Minnesota, which is approximately 20 miles southwest of downtown Minneapolis. The Racetrack is the only facility in the State of Minnesota that offers live pari-mutuel thoroughbred and quarter horse racing. Our pari-mutuel wagering operations include both wagering on thoroughbred and quarter horse races during live meets at the Racetrack and year-round wagering on races held at out-of-state racetracks that are televised simultaneously at the Racetrack (“simulcasting”). Unbanked card games, in which patrons compete against each other instead of the house, are also hosted in the Casino at the Racetrack. The Casino has historically operated 24 hours a day, seven days a week and has offered both poker and table games at up to 80 tables as allowed by Minnesota statute. We also derive revenues from related services and activities, such as food and beverage, advertising signage, publication sales, and catering and events held at the Racetrack. The ownership and operation of the Racetrack and the Casino are significantly regulated by the Minnesota Racing Commission (“MRC”). Canterbury Entertainment is the direct owner of all land, facilities, and substantially all other assets related to our pari-mutuel wagering, Casino, concessions, and other related businesses (“Racetrack Operations”), and is subject to direct regulation by the MRC. Canterbury Development is the direct owner of all land used in the real estate development operations. We own approximately 260 acres of land as of December 31, 2025 , in Shakopee, Minnesota where the Racetrack is located. Traditionally, our revenues have been principally derived from three activities: Casino operations, pari-mutuel operations, and food and beverage operations.…
