International Speedway Corporation
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
May 31, 2007
(Unaudited)
1. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in compliance with Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X and accounting principles generally accepted in the United States but do not include all of the information and disclosures required for complete financial statements. The balance sheet at November 30, 2006, has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. The statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the latest annual report on Form 10-K for International Speedway Corporation and its wholly owned subsidiaries (the “Company”). In management’s opinion, the statements include all adjustments which are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.
Unless indicated otherwise, all disclosures in the notes to the consolidated financial statements relate to continuing operations.
Because of the seasonal concentration of racing events, the results of operations for the three and six months ended May 31, 2006 and 2007 are not indicative of the results to be expected for the year.
2. New Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2006 the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes”, which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes.” The interpretation prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. This interpretation also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. This interpretation is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact that the adoption of this interpretation will have on its financial position and results of operations.
In June 2006 the Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) reached a consensus on Issue No. 06-03, “How Taxes Collected from Customers and Remitted to Governmental Authorities Should Be Presented in the Income Statement.” EITF No. 06-03 addresses the accounting for externally imposed taxes on revenue-producing transactions that take place between a seller and its customer, including, but not limited to sales, use, value added, and certain excise taxes. EITF No. 06-03 also provides guidance on the disclosure of an entity’s accounting policies for presenting such taxes on a gross or net basis and the amount of such taxes reported on a gross basis. EITF No. 06-03 is effective for interim and fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The Company’s adoption of this EITF in the second quarter of fiscal 2007 did not have an impact on the Company’s financial statements.
In September 2006 the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” which establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS No 157 applies under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements and, accordingly, SFAS No. 157 does not require any new fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact that the adoption of this statement will have on its financial position and results of operations.
In February 2007 the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115” which, among other things, permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. SFAS No. 159 was issued to improve financial reporting by providing entities with the opportunity to

mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions. Most of the provisions of SFAS No. 159 apply only to entities that elect the fair value option. However, the amendment of SFAS No. 115, “Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities,” applies to all entities with available-for-sale and trading securities. SFAS No. 159 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact that the adoption of this statement will have on its financial position and results of operations.

Raceway Associates, LLC
On February 2, 2007, the Company acquired the 62.5 percent ownership interest in Raceway Associates, LLC (“Raceway Associates”) it did not previously own, bringing its ownership to 100.0 percent. Raceway Associates operates Chicagoland Speedway (“Chicagoland”) and Route 66 Raceway (“Route 66”). The total purchase price of approximately $102.4 million including acquisition costs was paid with cash on hand and approximately $65.0 million in borrowings on the Company’s revolving credit facility.
In connection with these transactions, the Company acquired Raceway Associates’ net assets, including approximately $39.7 million in third party debt. These transactions have been accounted for as a business combination and are included in our consolidated operations subsequent to the date of acquisition.

The purchase price for the Raceway Associates acquisition was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their fair market values at the acquisition date as determined by an independent appraisal. Included in this acquisition are certain indefinite-lived intangible assets attributable to the sanction agreements in place at the time of acquisition and goodwill. The intangible assets and goodwill are included in the Motorsports Event segment and are expected to be deductible for income tax purposes. As the acquisition is not considered significant, pro forma and purchase price allocation financial information are not presented.
5. Discontinued Operations and Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
Nazareth Speedway
After the completion of Nazareth Speedway’s (“Nazareth”) fiscal 2004 events, the Company suspended indefinitely major motorsports event operations at the facility. The National Association for Stock Car Auto Racing (“NASCAR”) Busch Series and Indy Racing League (“IRL”) IndyCar Series events, then conducted at Nazareth, were realigned to other motorsports entertainment facilities within the Company’s portfolio.
In January 2006, the Company entered into an agreement with NZSW, LLC for the sale of 158 acres, on which Nazareth Speedway is located, for approximately $18.8 million. Under the terms of the contract the sale transaction is expected to close during fiscal 2007. Upon closing the transaction, the Company expects to record an after-tax gain from discontinued operations of approximately $6.0 million to $7.0 million, or $0.11 to $0.13 per diluted share.
The operations of Nazareth were included in the Motorsports Event segment. In accordance with SFAS No. 144 the results of operations of Nazareth are presented as discontinued operations in all periods presented. There were no revenues recognized by Nazareth for the three and six months ended May 31, 2006 and 2007. Nazareth’s pre-tax loss was approximately $106,000 and $23,000 for the three months ended May 31, 2006 and 2007, respectively, and 267,000 and $112,000 for the six months ended May 31, 2006 and 2007, respectively. Nazareth’s assets held for sale included in property and equipment, net of accumulated depreciation, totaled approximately $6.8 million at November 30, 2006 and May 31, 2007. Unless indicated otherwise, all disclosures in the notes to the consolidated financial statements relate to continuing operations.
Northwest US Speedway Development
On April 2, 2007, the Company announced that despite agreeing to substantial changes to the required legislation to help fund the development of a motorsports entertainment facility in Kitsap County, Washington, it had become apparent that additional modifications would be proposed to the bill. Due to the increased risk that the collective modifications would have a significant negative impact on the project’s financial model, the Company felt it was in its best long-term interest to discontinue its efforts at the site. As a result, the Company recorded a non-cash pre-tax charge in the fiscal 2007 second quarter of approximately $5.9 million, or $0.07 per diluted share after-tax, to reflect the write-off of certain capitalized costs including legal, consulting, capitalized interest and other project-specific costs.
New York Metropolitan Speedway Development
In September 2006 the Company ceased fill operations at its Staten Island real property while it addressed the issues raised in communications from the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (“DEC”) and the New York City Department of Sanitation (“DOS”), including the presence of, and potential need to remediate, fill containing constituents above regulatory thresholds. In May 2007, the Company entered into a Consent Order with the DEC to resolve the issues surrounding these fill operations and the prior placement of fill at the site that contained constituents above regulatory thresholds. The Consent Order requires the Company to remove non-compliant fill pursuant to an approved comprehensive fill removal plan. The Consent Order also required the Company to pay a penalty to DEC of $562,500, half of which was paid in May 2007 and the other half of which has been suspended so long as the Company complies with the terms of the Consent Order. Included in the Impairment of Long-lived Assets section of our consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended May 31, 2007, is the Company’s estimated total costs, including the portion of the penalty which has been paid, attributable to the expected fill removal process of approximately $2.9 million, or $0.04 per diluted share after-tax. The Company is currently evaluating the existence of other responsible parties and potential recoveries from

such parties, if any. The Company continues to work with the DEC and other agencies to resolve these issues and expect to resume fill operations within the next several months after complying with the Consent Order and once other appropriate regulatory approvals are obtained. The costs associated with the fill removal process are expected to be paid within the next several months, once the DEC has approved our plan and the fill is removed.

On April 23, 2004, the Company completed an offering of $300.0 million principal amount of unsecured senior notes in a private placement. On September 27, 2004, the Company completed an offer to exchange these unsecured senior notes for registered senior notes with substantially identical terms (“2004 Senior Notes”). At May 31, 2007, outstanding 2004 Senior Notes totaled approximately $300.6 million, net of unamortized discounts and premium, which is comprised of $150.0 million principal amount unsecured senior notes, which bear interest at 4.2 percent and are due April 2009 (“4.2 percent Senior Notes”), and $150.0 million principal amount unsecured senior notes, which bear interest at 5.4 percent and are due April 2014. The 2004 Senior Notes require semi-annual interest payments on April 15 and October 15 through their maturity. The 2004 Senior Notes may be redeemed in whole or in part, at the option of the Company, at any time or from time to time at redemption prices as defined in the indenture. The Company’s wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries are guarantors of the 2004 Senior Notes. The 2004 Senior Notes also contain various restrictive covenants. Total gross proceeds from the sale of the 2004 Senior Notes were $300.0 million, net of discounts of approximately $431,000 and approximately $2.6 million of deferred financing fees. The deferred financing fees are being treated as additional interest expense and amortized over the life of the 2004 Senior Notes on a straight-line method, which approximates the effective yield method. In March 2004, the Company entered into interest rate swap agreements to effectively lock in the interest rate on approximately $150.0 million of the 4.2 percent Senior Notes. The Company terminated these interest rate swap agreements on April 23, 2004 and received approximately $2.2 million, which is being amortized over the life of the 4.2 percent Senior Notes.
In January 1999, the Unified Government of Wyandotte County/Kansas City, Kansas (“Unified Government”), issued approximately $71.3 million in taxable special obligation revenue (“TIF”) bonds in connection with the financing of construction of Kansas Speedway. At May 31, 2007, outstanding TIF bonds totaled approximately $67.3 million, net of the unamortized discount, which is comprised of a $18.7 million principal amount, 6.2 percent term bond due December 1, 2017 and $49.7 million principal amount, 6.8 percent term bond due December 1, 2027. The TIF bonds are repaid by the Unified Government with payments made in lieu of property taxes (“Funding Commitment”) by the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Kansas Speedway Corporation (“KSC”). Principal (mandatory redemption) payments per the Funding Commitment are payable by KSC on October 1 of each year. The semi-annual interest component

of the Funding Commitment is payable on April 1 and October 1 of each year. KSC granted a mortgage and security interest in the Kansas project for its Funding Commitment obligation. The bond financing documents contain various restrictive covenants.
In connection with the Company’s February 2, 2007, acquisition of the 62.5 percent ownership interest in Raceway Associates it did not previously own, it assumed approximately $39.7 million in third party debt, consisting of three bank term loans and two revenue bonds payable. The first bank term loan (“Chicagoland Term Loan”) was a construction loan for the development of Chicagoland with principal outstanding at the date of acquisition of approximately $28.4 million. The Chicagoland Term Loan had an original ten year term and was due November 15, 2012, with equal payments of principal, in the amount of $1.2 million, and interest due quarterly. The Company paid the remaining principal and accrued interest on the Chicagoland Term Loan subsequent to the acquisition in February 2007. The second bank term loan (“4.9 percent Bank Loan”) consists of a construction and mortgage note with principal outstanding at the date of acquisition of approximately $3.3 million, original 20 year term due June 2018, with a current interest rate of 4.9 percent and a monthly payment of $48,000 principal and interest. The interest rate and monthly payments will be adjusted on June 1, 2008, and 2013. At May 31, 2007, outstanding principal on the 4.9 percent Bank Loan was approximately $3.2 million. The third bank term loan (“6.3 percent Bank Loan”) consists of a mortgage note with principal outstanding at the date of acquisition of approximately $271,000, original five year term due February 2008, with a fixed interest rate of 6.3 percent and a monthly payment of $25,000 principal and interest. At May 31, 2007, outstanding principal on the 6.3 percent Bank Loan was approximately $200,000. The first revenue bonds payable (“5.8 percent Revenue Bonds”) consist of economic development revenue bonds issued by the City of Joliet, Illinois to finance certain land improvements with principal outstanding at the date of acquisition of approximately $2.5 million. The 5.8 percent Revenue Bonds have an initial interest rate of 5.8 percent and a monthly payment of $29,000 principal and interest. The interest rate will be adjusted on June 1, 2008 and will continue until maturity in June 2018. At May 31, 2007, outstanding principal on the 5.8 percent Revenue Bonds was approximately $2.4 million. The second revenue bonds payable (“6.8 percent Revenue Bonds”) are special service area revenue bonds issued by the City of Joliet, Illinois to finance certain land improvements with principal outstanding at the date of acquisition of approximately $5.2 million. The 6.8 percent Revenue Bonds are billed and paid as a special assessment on real estate taxes. Interest payments are due on a semi-annual basis at 6.8 percent with principal payments due annually. Final maturity of the 6.8 percent Revenue Bonds is January 2012. At May 31, 2007, outstanding principal on the 6.8 percent Revenue Bonds was approximately $5.2 million.
On June 16, 2006, the Company entered into a $300.0 million revolving credit facility (“2006 Credit Facility”). The 2006 Credit Facility allows the Company to increase the credit facility to a total of $500.0 million, subject to certain conditions. The 2006 Credit Facility is scheduled to mature in June 2011, and accrues interest at LIBOR plus 30.0-80.0 basis points, based on the Company’s highest debt rating as determined by specified rating agencies. The 2006 Credit Facility contains various restrictive covenants.
Total interest expense from continuing operations incurred by the Company was approximately $2.8 million and $3.7 million for the three months ended May 31, 2006 and 2007, respectively, and $6.9 million and $7.7 million for the six months ended May 31, 2006 and 2007, respectively. Total interest capitalized for the three months ended May 31, 2006 and 2007, was approximately $2.0 million and $1.6 million, respectively, and approximately $3.9 million and $2.8 million for the six months ended May 31, 2006 and 2007, respectively.
Financing costs of approximately $6.5 million and $6.1 million, net of accumulated amortization, have been deferred and are included in other assets at November 30, 2006 and May 31, 2007, respectively. These costs are being amortized on a straight line method, which approximates the effective yield method, over the life of the related financing.
8. Capital Stock
Stock Purchase Plan
In December 2006 the Company announced that its Board of Directors had authorized a share repurchase program (“Stock Purchase Plan”) under which it may purchase up to $50.0 million of its outstanding Class A common shares. In July 2007, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized an increase to the Stock

12


Table of Contents

Purchase Plan under which it now may purchase up to $150.0 million of its outstanding Class A common shares through November 30, 2008. The timing and amount of any shares repurchased under the Stock Purchase Plan will depend on a variety of factors, including price, corporate and regulatory requirements, capital availability and other market conditions. The Stock Purchase Plan may be suspended or discontinued at any time without prior notice. No shares have been or will be knowingly purchased from Company insiders or their affiliates. During the six months ended May 31, 2007 the Company purchased 501,432 shares of its Class A common shares, at an average of approximately $51.81 per share, for a total of approximately $26.0 million under the Stock Purchase Plan.
9. Long-Term Stock Incentive Plan
In April 2007, the Company awarded and issued a total of 53,865 restricted shares of the Company’s Class A common shares to certain officers and managers under the Company’s Long-Term Stock Incentive Plan (the “2006 Plan”). The shares of restricted stock awarded in April 2007, vest at the rate of 50.0 percent on the third anniversary of the award date and the remaining 50.0 percent on the fifth anniversary of the award date. The weighted average grant date fair value of these restricted share awards was $51.70 per share. In accordance with SFAS 123(R) “Share-Based Payment” the Company is recognizing stock-based compensation on its restricted shares awarded on the accelerated method over the requisite service period.
10. Related Party Disclosures and Transactions
All of the racing events that take place during the Company’s fiscal year are sanctioned by various racing organizations such as the American Historic Racing Motorcycle Association, the American Motorcyclist Association, the Automobile Racing Club of America, the American Sportbike Racing Association — Championship Cup Series, Grand American Road Racing Association, Historic Sportscar Racing, the International Race of Champions, IRL, NASCAR, the National Hot Rod Association, the Porsche Club of America, the Sports Car Club of America, the Sportscar Vintage Racing Association, the United States Auto Club and the World Karting Association. NASCAR, which sanctions some of the Company’s principal racing events, is controlled by members of the France Family Group which, in turn, controls in excess of 60.0 percent of the combined voting power of the outstanding stock of the Company. Additionally, some members of the France Family Group serve as directors and officers of the Company. Standard NASCAR sanction agreements require racetrack operators to pay sanction fees and prize and point fund monies for each sanctioned event conducted. The prize and point fund monies are distributed by NASCAR to participants in the events. Prize and point fund monies paid by the Company to NASCAR from continuing operations for disbursement to competitors, which are exclusive of NASCAR sanction fees, totaled approximately $29.8 million and $28.5 million for the three months ended May 31, 2006 and 2007, respectively, and approximately $60.9 million and $57.4 million for the six months ended May 31, 2006 and 2007, respectively. There were no prize and point fund monies paid by the Company to NASCAR related to the discontinued operations for the three and six months ended May 31, 2006 and 2007, respectively.
Under current agreements, NASCAR contracts directly with certain network providers for television rights to the entire NASCAR NEXTEL Cup, Busch and Craftsman Truck series schedules. Event promoters share in the television rights fees in accordance with the provision of the sanction agreement for each NASCAR NEXTEL Cup, Busch and Craftsman Truck series event. Under the terms of this arrangement, NASCAR retains 10.0 percent of the gross broadcast rights fees allocated to each NASCAR NEXTEL Cup, Busch and Craftsman Truck series event as a component of its sanction fees and remits the remaining 90.0 percent to the event promoter. The event promoter pays 25.0 percent of the gross broadcast rights fees allocated to the event as part of the previously discussed prize money paid to NASCAR for disbursement to competitors. The Company’s television broadcast and ancillary rights fees from continuing operations received from NASCAR for the NASCAR NEXTEL Cup, Busch and Truck series events conducted at its wholly-owned facilities were approximately $65.0 million and $58.2 million for the three months ended May 31, 2006 and 2007, respectively, and $135.4 million and $119.5 million for the six months ended May 31, 2006 and 2007, respectively. There were no television broadcast and ancillary rights fees received from NASCAR related to discontinued operations during the three and six months ended May 31, 2006 and 2007, respectively.
11. Commitments and Contingencies
In October 2002, the Unified Government issued subordinate sales tax special obligation revenue bonds (“2002 STAR Bonds”) totaling approximately $6.3 million to reimburse the Company for certain construction already completed on the second phase of the Kansas Speedway project and to fund certain

13


Table of Contents

additional construction. The 2002 STAR Bonds, which require annual debt service payments and are due December 1, 2022, will be retired with state and local taxes generated within the speedway’s boundaries and are not the Company’s obligation. KSC has agreed to guarantee the payment of principal, any required premium and interest on the 2002 STAR Bonds. At May 31, 2007, the Unified Government had approximately $3.8 million outstanding on 2002 STAR Bonds. Under a keepwell agreement, the Company has agreed to provide financial assistance to KSC, if necessary, to support KSC’s guarantee of the 2002 STAR Bonds.
The Company has guaranteed minimum royalty payments under certain agreements through December 2015, with a remaining maximum exposure at May 31, 2007, of approximately $12.5 million.
In connection with the Company’s automobile and workers’ compensation insurance coverages and certain construction contracts, the Company has standby letter of credit agreements in favor of third parties totaling approximately $3.1 million at May 31, 2007. At May 31, 2007, there were no amounts drawn on the standby letters of credit.
The Internal Revenue Service (the “Service”) is currently performing a periodic examination of the Company’s federal income tax returns for the years ended November 30, 1999 through 2005 and has challenged the tax depreciation treatment of a significant portion of its motorsports entertainment facility assets. Through May 31, 2007, the Company has received reports from the Service requesting downward adjustments to its tax depreciation expense for the fiscal years ended November 30, 1999 through 2005, which could potentially result in the reclassification of approximately $101.1 million of income taxes from deferred to current. Including related interest, the combined after-tax cash flow impact of these requested adjustments is approximately $117.9 million. In order to prevent incurring additional interest, the Company has approximately $117.9 million on deposit with the Service as of May 31, 2007, which is classified as long-term assets in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The Company’s deposits are not a payment of tax, and it will receive accrued interest on any of these funds ultimately returned to it. Including related interest, the Company estimates the combined after-tax cash flow impact of future additional federal tax adjustments expected for fiscal 2006, and related state tax revisions and interest for all periods, to range between $30.0 million and $40.0 million at May 31, 2007. In June 2007, the Service commenced the administrative appeals process which is expected to take six to fifteen months to complete. If the Company’s appeal is not resolved satisfactorily, the Company will evaluate all of its options, including litigation. The Company believes that its application of the federal income tax regulations in question, which have been applied consistently since being adopted in 1986 and have been subjected to previous IRS audits, is appropriate, and it intends to vigorously defend the merits of its position. In accordance with SFAS No. 109 “Accounting for Income Taxes,” the Company has accrued a deferred tax liability based on the differences between its financial reporting and tax bases of such assets in its consolidated balance sheet as of May 31, 2007. While an adverse resolution of these matters could result in a material negative impact on cash flow, including payment of taxes from amounts currently on deposit with the Service, the Company believes that it has provided adequate reserves related to these matters including interest charges through May 31, 2007 totaling approximately $13.2 million, and, as a result, does not expect that such an outcome would have a material adverse effect on results of operations.
Current Litigation
The Company is from time to time a party to routine litigation incidental to its business. Management does not believe that the resolution of any or all of such litigation will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.
In addition to such routine litigation incident to its business, the Company is a party to litigation described below.
In July 2005, Kentucky Speedway, LLC filed a civil action in the Eastern District of Kentucky against NASCAR and the Company alleging that “NASCAR and ISC have acted, and continue to act, individually and in combination and collusion with each other and other companies that control motorsports entertainment facilities hosting NASCAR NEXTEL Cup Series, to illegally restrict the award of ... NASCAR NEXTEL Cup Series [races].” The complaint was recently amended to seek, in addition to damages, an injunction requiring NASCAR to “develop objective factors for the award of NEXTEL Cup races”, “divestiture of ISC and NASCAR so that the France Family and anyone else does not share ownership of both companies or serve as officers or directors of both companies”, “ISC’s divestiture of at

14


Table of Contents

least 8 of its 12 racetracks that currently operate a NEXTEL Cup race” and prohibiting further alleged violations of the antitrust laws. Curiously, the complaint does not ask the court to cause NASCAR to award a NEXTEL Cup race to the Kentucky Speedway. Other than some vaguely conclusory allegations, the complaint fails to specify any specific unlawful conduct by the Company. Pre-trial “discovery” in the case was recently concluded and based upon all of the evidentiary materials adduced the Company believes even more strongly than before that the case is without legal or factual merit. At this point the likelihood of a materially adverse result appears to be remote, although there is always an element of uncertainty in litigation. It is premature to attempt to quantify the potential magnitude of a remotely possible adverse decision, although the Company intends to continue to defend itself vigorously while maintaining potential claims and remedies available to it to recover the damages caused by the filing of the suit. At a status conference in late May 2007 the Court modified the timeline for the case to extend the time periods for the conclusion of submission of summary judgment materials until September 24, 2007 and to tentatively set the date for a trial (if needed) of up to five weeks beginning in March 2008. The fees and expenses associated with the defense of this suit are not covered by insurance and could adversely impact the Company’s financial condition or results of operations and cash flows, even if the Company ultimately prevails. Further, the time devoted to this matter by management and the possible impact of litigation on business negotiations occurring prior to resolution of this matter could also adversely impact the Company’s financial condition or results of operations and cash flows. Finally, even if the direct effect of the resolution of this case does not result in a material adverse impact on the Company, it is remotely possible that the resolution of this case could result in industry wide changes in the way race schedules are determined by sanctioning bodies, which could indirectly have a material adverse impact on the Company.

13. Condensed Consolidating Financial Statements
In connection with the 2004 Senior Notes, the Company is required to provide condensed consolidating financial information for its subsidiary guarantors. All of the Company’s wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries have, jointly and severally, fully and unconditionally guaranteed, to each holder of 2004 Senior Notes and the trustee under the Indenture for the 2004 Senior Notes, the full and prompt performance of the Company’s obligations under the indenture and the 2004 Senior Notes, including the payment of principal (or premium, if any) and interest on the 2004 Senior Notes, on an equal and ratable basis.
The subsidiary guarantees are unsecured obligations of each subsidiary guarantor and rank equally in right of payment with all senior indebtedness of that subsidiary guarantor and senior in right of payment to all subordinated indebtedness of that subsidiary guarantor. The subsidiary guarantees are effectively subordinated to any secured indebtedness of the subsidiary guarantor with respect to the assets securing the indebtedness.
In the absence of both default and notice, there are no restrictions imposed by the Company’s 2006 Credit Facility, 2004 Senior Notes, or guarantees on the Company’s ability to obtain funds from its subsidiaries by dividend or loan. The Company has not presented separate financial statements for each of the guarantors, because it has deemed that such financial statements would not provide the investors with any material additional information.
Included in the tables below, are condensed consolidating balance sheets as of November 30, 2006 and May 31, 2007, condensed consolidating statements of operations for the three and six months ended May 31, 2006 and 2007, and condensed consolidating statements of cash flows for the six months ended May 31, 2006 and 2007, of: (a) the Parent; (b) the guarantor subsidiaries; (c) elimination entries necessary to consolidate Parent with guarantor subsidiaries; and (d) the Company on a consolidated basis (in thousands).

PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Results of Operations
General
The general nature of our business is a motorsports themed amusement enterprise; furnishing amusement to the public in the form of motorsports themed entertainment. We derive revenues primarily from (i) admissions to motorsports events and motorsports themed amusement activities held at our facilities, (ii) revenue generated in conjunction with or as a result of motorsports events and motorsports themed amusement activities conducted at our facilities, and (iii) catering, concession and merchandising services during or as a result of these events and amusement activities.
“Admissions, net” revenue includes ticket sales for all of our racing events, activities at DAYTONA USA (which was renamed daytona 500 eXperience effective July 1, 2007) and other motorsports activities and amusements, net of any applicable taxes.
“Motorsports related” revenue primarily includes television, radio and ancillary rights fees, marketing partnership fees, hospitality rentals (including luxury suites, chalets and the hospitality portion of club seating), advertising, track rentals and royalties from licenses of our trademarks.
“Food, beverage and merchandise” revenue includes revenues from concession stands, direct sales of souvenirs, hospitality catering, programs and other merchandise and fees paid by third party vendors for the right to occupy space to sell souvenirs and concessions at our facilities.
Direct expenses include (i) prize and point fund monies and NASCAR sanction fees, (ii) motorsports related expenses, which include labor, advertising, costs of competition paid to sanctioning bodies other than NASCAR and other expenses associated with the promotion of all of our motorsports events and activities, and (iii) food, beverage and merchandise expenses, consisting primarily of labor and costs of goods sold.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. While our estimates and assumptions are based on conditions existing at and trends leading up to the time the estimates and assumptions are made, actual results could differ materially from those estimates and assumptions. We continually review our accounting policies, how they are applied and how they are reported and disclosed in the financial statements.
The following is a summary of our critical accounting policies and estimates and how they are applied in the preparation of the financial statements.
Basis of Presentation and Consolidation. We consolidate all entities we control by ownership of a majority voting interest. Also, if we ever have variable interest entities for which we are the primary beneficiary, we will consolidate those entities. We do not currently have variable interest entities for which we are the primary beneficiary. Our judgment in determining if we are the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity includes assessing our level of involvement in establishing the entity, determining whether we provide more than half of any management, operational or financial support to the entity, and determining if we absorb the majority of the entity’s expected losses or returns.
We apply the equity method of accounting for our investments in joint ventures and other investees whenever we can exert significant influence on the investee but do not have effective control over the investee. Our consolidated net income includes our share of the net earnings or losses from these investees. Our judgment regarding the level of influence over each equity method investee includes considering

20


Table of Contents

factors such as our ownership interest, board representation and policy making decisions. We periodically evaluate these equity investments for potential impairment where a decline in value is determined to be other than temporary.
We eliminate all significant intercompany transactions from financial results.
Revenue Recognition. Advance ticket sales and event-related revenues for future events are deferred until earned, which is generally once the events are conducted. The recognition of event-related expenses is matched with the recognition of event-related revenues.
NASCAR contracts directly with certain network providers for television rights to the entire NASCAR NEXTEL Cup, Busch and Craftsman Truck series schedules. Event promoters share in the television rights fees in accordance with the provision of the sanction agreement for each NASCAR NEXTEL Cup, Busch and Craftsman Truck series event. Under the terms of this arrangement, NASCAR retains 10.0 percent of the gross broadcast rights fees allocated to each NASCAR NEXTEL Cup, Busch and Craftsman Truck series event as a component of its sanction fees and remits the remaining 90.0 percent to the event promoter. The event promoter pays 25.0 percent of the gross broadcast rights fees allocated to the event as part of awards to the competitors.
Our revenues from marketing partnerships are paid in accordance with negotiated contracts, with the identities of partners and the terms of sponsorship changing from time to time. Some of our marketing partnership agreements are for multiple facilities and/or events and include multiple specified elements, such as tickets, hospitality chalets, suites, display space and signage for each included event. The allocation of such marketing partnership revenues between the multiple elements, events and facilities is based on relative fair value. The sponsorship revenue allocated to an event is recognized when the event is conducted.
Revenues and related costs from the sale of merchandise to retail customers, internet sales and direct sales to dealers are recognized at the time of sale.
Accounts Receivable. We regularly review the collectibility of our accounts receivable. An allowance for doubtful accounts is estimated based on historical experience of write-offs and future expectations of conditions that might impact the collectibility of accounts.
Business Combinations. All business combinations are accounted for under the purchase method. Whether net assets or common stock is acquired, fair values are determined and assigned to the purchased assets and assumed liabilities of the acquired entity. The excess of the cost of the acquisition over fair value of the net assets acquired (including recognized intangibles) is recorded as goodwill. Business combinations involving existing motorsports entertainment facilities commonly result in a significant portion of the purchase price being allocated to the fair value of the contract-based intangible asset associated with long-term relationships manifest in the sanction agreements with sanctioning bodies, such as NASCAR, Grand American Road Racing Association (“Grand American”) and/or Indy Racing League (“IRL”). The continuity of sanction agreements with these bodies has historically enabled the facility operator to host motorsports events year after year. While individual sanction agreements may be of terms as short as one year, a significant portion of the purchase price in excess of the fair value of acquired tangible assets is commonly paid to acquire anticipated future cash flows from events promoted pursuant to these agreements which are expected to continue for the foreseeable future and therefore, in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 141, are recorded as indefinite-lived intangible assets recognized apart from goodwill.
Capitalization and Depreciation Policies. Property and equipment are stated at cost. Maintenance and repairs that neither materially add to the value of the property nor appreciably prolong its life are charged to expense as incurred. Depreciation and amortization for financial statement purposes are provided on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets. When we construct assets, we capitalize costs of the project, including, but not limited to, certain preacquisition costs, permitting costs, fees paid to architects and contractors, certain costs of our design and construction subsidiary, property taxes and interest.
We must make estimates and assumptions when accounting for capital expenditures. Whether an expenditure is considered an operating expense or a capital asset is a matter of judgment. When

21


Table of Contents

constructing or purchasing assets, we must determine whether existing assets are being replaced or otherwise impaired, which also is a matter of judgment. Our depreciation expense for financial statement purposes is highly dependent on the assumptions we make about our assets’ estimated useful lives. We determine the estimated useful lives based upon our experience with similar assets, industry, legal and regulatory factors, and our expectations of the usage of the asset. Whenever events or circumstances occur which change the estimated useful life of an asset, we account for the change prospectively.
Interest costs associated with major development and construction projects are capitalized as part of the cost of the project. Interest is typically capitalized on amounts expended using the weighted-average cost of our outstanding borrowings, since we typically do not borrow funds directly related to a development or construction project. We capitalize interest on a project when development or construction activities begin and cease when such activities are substantially complete or are suspended for more than a brief period.
Impairment of Long-lived Assets, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. Our consolidated balance sheets include significant amounts of long-lived assets, goodwill and other intangible assets. Our intangible assets are comprised of assets having finite useful lives, which are amortized over that period, and goodwill and other non-amortizable intangible assets with indefinite useful lives. Current accounting standards require testing these assets for impairment, either upon the occurrence of an impairment indicator or annually, based on assumptions regarding our future business outlook. While we continue to review and analyze many factors that can impact our business prospects in the future, our analyses are subjective and are based on conditions existing at and trends leading up to the time the estimates and assumptions are made. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates and assumptions. Our judgments with regard to our future business prospects could impact whether or not an impairment is deemed to have occurred, as well as the timing of the recognition of such an impairment charge. Our equity method investees also perform such tests for impairment of long-lived assets, goodwill and other intangible assets.
Self-Insurance Reserves. We use a combination of insurance and self-insurance for a number of risks including general liability, workers’ compensation, vehicle liability and employee-related health care benefits. Liabilities associated with the risks that we retain are estimated by considering various historical trends and forward-looking assumptions related to costs, claim counts and payments. The estimated accruals for these liabilities could be significantly affected if future occurrences and claims differ from these assumptions and historical trends.
Income Taxes. The tax law requires that certain items be included in our tax return at different times than when these items are reflected in our consolidated financial statements. Some of these differences are permanent, such as expenses not deductible on our tax return. However, some differences reverse over time, such as depreciation expense, and these temporary differences create deferred tax assets and liabilities. Our estimates of deferred income taxes and the significant items giving rise to deferred tax assets and liabilities reflect our assessment of actual future taxes to be paid on items reflected in our financial statements, giving consideration to both timing and probability of realization. Actual income taxes could vary significantly from these estimates due to future changes in income tax law or changes or adjustments resulting from final review of our tax returns by taxing authorities, which could also adversely impact our cash flow.
In the ordinary course of business, there are many transactions and calculations where the ultimate tax outcome is uncertain. The calculation of tax liabilities involves dealing with uncertainties in the application of complex tax laws. We recognize probable liabilities for tax audit issues, including interest and penalties, based on an estimate of the ultimate resolution of whether, and the extent to which, additional taxes will be due. Although we believe the estimates are reasonable, no assurance can be given that the final outcome of these matters will not be different than what is reflected in the historical income tax provisions and accruals. Such differences could have an impact on the income tax provision and operating results in the period in which such determination is made.
Contingent Liabilities. Our determination of the treatment of contingent liabilities in the financial statements is based on our view of the expected outcome of the applicable contingency. In the ordinary course of business we consult with legal counsel on matters related to litigation and other experts both within and outside our company. We accrue a liability if the likelihood of an adverse outcome is probable and the amount of loss is reasonably estimable. We disclose the matter but do not accrue a liability if either the likelihood of an adverse outcome is only reasonably possible or an estimate of loss is not determinable. Legal and other costs incurred in conjunction with loss contingencies are expensed as incurred.

Acquisition and Divestitures
Raceway Associates, LLC
On February 2, 2007, we acquired the 62.5 percent ownership interested in Raceway Associates, LLC (“Raceway Associates”) we did not previously own, bringing our ownership to 100.0 percent. Raceway Associates operates Chicagoland Speedway (“Chicagoland”) and Route 66 Raceway (“Route 66”). The total purchase price of approximately $102.4 million including acquisition costs was paid with cash on hand and approximately $65.0 million in borrowings on our revolving credit facility.
In connection with these transactions, we acquired Raceway Associates’ net assets, including approximately $39.7 million in third party debt. These transactions have been accounted for as a business combination and are included in our consolidated operations subsequent to the date of acquisition.
We believe that Chicagoland and Route 66 are uniquely attractive assets well-positioned in the nation’s third largest media market. The region boasts a strong motorsports fan base, demonstrated by six consecutive years of season ticket sell-outs at Chicagoland since opening in 2001.
The purchase price for the Raceway Associates acquisition was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their fair market values at the acquisition date as determined by an independent appraisal. Included in this acquisition are certain indefinite-lived intangible assets attributable to the sanction agreements in place at the time of acquisition and goodwill.
Nazareth Speedway
After the completion of Nazareth Speedway’s (“Nazareth”) fiscal 2004 events we suspended indefinitely its major motorsports event operations. The NASCAR Busch Series and Indy Racing League (“IRL”) IndyCar Series events, then conducted at Nazareth, were realigned to other motorsports entertainment facilities within our portfolio.
In January 2006, we entered into an agreement with NZSW, LLC for the sale of 158 acres, on which Nazareth Speedway is located, for approximately $18.8 million. Under the terms of the contract the sale transaction is expected to close during fiscal 2007. Upon closing the transaction, we expect to record an after-tax gain from discontinued operations of approximately $6.0 million to $7.0 million, or $0.11 to $0.13 per diluted share.
For all periods presented, the results of operations of Nazareth are presented as discontinued operations.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
Northwest US Speedway Development
On April 2, 2007, we announced that despite agreeing to substantial changes to the required legislation to help fund the development of a motorsports entertainment facility in Kitsap County, Washington, it had become apparent that additional modifications would be proposed to the bill. Due to the increased risk that the collective modifications would have a significant negative impact on the project’s financial model, we felt it was in our best long-term interest to discontinue our efforts at the site. As a result, we recorded a non-cash pre-tax charge in the fiscal 2007 second quarter of approximately $5.9 million, or $0.07 per diluted share after-tax, to reflect the write-off of certain capitalized costs including legal, consulting, capitalized interest and other project-specific costs. We still believe the Pacific Northwest represents an attractive long-term opportunity, and remain interested in a motorsports entertainment facility development project in the region.
New York Metropolitan Speedway Development
In September 2006 we ceased fill operations at our Staten Island real property while we addressed the issues raised in communications from the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (“DEC”) and the New York City Department of Sanitation (“DOS”), including the presence of, and potential need to remediate, fill containing constituents above regulatory thresholds. In May 2007, we entered into a Consent Order with the DEC to resolve the issues surrounding these fill operations and the prior placement of fill at the site that contained constituents above regulatory thresholds. The Consent

23


Table of Contents

Order requires us to remove non-compliant fill pursuant to an approved comprehensive fill removal plan. The Consent Order also required us to pay a penalty to DEC of $562,500, half of which was paid in May 2007 and the other half of which has been suspended so long as we comply with the terms of the Consent Order. Included in the Impairment of Long-lived Assets section of our consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended May 31, 2007, is our estimated total costs, including the portion of the penalty which has been paid, attributable to the expected fill removal process of approximately $2.9 million, or $0.04 per diluted share after-tax. We are currently evaluating the existence of other responsible parties and potential recoveries from such parties, if any. We continue to work with the DEC and other agencies to resolve these issues and expect to resume fill operations within the next several months after complying with the Consent Order and once other appropriate regulatory approvals are obtained. The costs associated with the fill removal process are expected to be paid within the next several months, once the DEC has approved our plan and the fill is removed.
Limited Partnership Agreement
In October 2006 we entered into a limited partnership agreement with Group Motorisé International (“GMI”) to organize, promote and hold certain racing events at Circuit Gilles Villeneuve, including a NASCAR Busch Series and Grand American Rolex Sports Car Series presented by Crown Royal Special Reserve race weekend in the third quarter of fiscal 2007. Circuit Gilles Villeneuve is a road course located in Montréal, Quebec, at which GMI currently promotes a successful F1 Canadian Grand Prix event. The agreement is not expected to have a material effect on our financial condition or results of operations in fiscal 2007.
Stock Repurchases
In December 2006 we announced that our Board of Directors had authorized a share repurchase program (“Stock Purchase Plan”) under which we may purchase up to $50.0 million of our outstanding Class A common shares. In July 2007, our Board of Directors authorized an increase to the Stock Purchase Plan under which we now may purchase up to $150.0 million of our outstanding Class A common shares through November 30, 2008. The timing and amount of any shares repurchased under the Stock Purchase Plan will depend on a variety of factors, including price, corporate and regulatory requirements, capital availability and other market conditions. The Stock Purchase Plan may be suspended or discontinued at any time without prior notice. No shares have been or will be knowingly purchased from Company insiders or their affiliates. During the six months ended May 31, 2007, we purchased 501,432 shares of our Class A common shares, at an average of approximately $51.81 per share, for a total of approximately $26.0 million under the Stock Purchase Plan.
Future Trends in Operating Results
Our success has been, and is expected to remain, dependent on maintaining good working relationships with the organizations that sanction events at our facilities, particularly with NASCAR, whose sanctioned events at our wholly-owned facilities accounted for approximately 87.6 percent of our revenues in fiscal 2006. In January 2003, NASCAR announced it would entertain and discuss proposals from track operators regarding potential realignment of NASCAR NEXTEL Cup Series dates to more geographically diverse and potentially more desirable markets where there may be greater demand, resulting in an opportunity for increased revenues to the track operators. NASCAR approved realignments of certain NASCAR NEXTEL Cup and other events at our facilities for the 2004, 2005, 2006 and 2007 seasons. We believe that the realignments have provided, and will continue to provide, incremental net positive revenue and earnings as well as further enhance the sport’s exposure in highly desirable markets, which we believe benefits the sport’s fans, teams, sponsors and television broadcast partners as well as promoters. NASCAR has indicated that it is open to discussion regarding additional date realignments. We believe we are well positioned to capitalize on these future opportunities.
Fiscal 2006 was our last year under NASCAR’s multi-year consolidated television broadcast rights agreements with NBC Sports, Turner Sports, FOX and FX. Television broadcast and ancillary rights fees from continuing operations received from NASCAR for the NASCAR NEXTEL Cup and NASCAR Busch series events conducted at our wholly-owned facilities under these agreements for fiscal 2006 were approximately $273.4 million. NASCAR has entered into new combined eight-year agreements with FOX, ABC/ESPN, TNT and SPEED beginning in 2007 for the domestic broadcast and related rights for its NEXTEL Cup, Busch and Craftsman Truck series. The agreements are expected to total approximately

Table of Contents

$4.5 billion over the eight year period from 2007 through 2014. This results in an approximate $560.0 million gross average annual rights fee for the industry, a more than 40.0 percent increase over the previous contract average of $400.0 million annually. The industry rights fees are expected to approximate $505.0 million for 2007, with increases, on average, of approximately three percent per year through the 2014 season. The annual increase is expected to vary between two and four percent per year over the period. While the 2007 industry rights fees will be less than the 2006 industry rights fees of approximately $576.0 million, in our opinion this should not overshadow the strategic importance and expected long-term benefits of the new contracts. Over the past several years, there has been a shift of major sports programming from network to cable. The cable broadcasters can support a higher investment through subscriber fees not available to networks, which has resulted in increased rights fees for these sports properties. Cable, however, reaches far fewer households than network broadcasts. We view NASCAR’s decision to keep approximately two-thirds of its event schedule on network television as important to the sport’s future growth. The structure should continue to drive increased fan and media awareness for all three racing series, which will help fuel our long-term attendance and corporate-related revenues. We also welcome the chance to re-establish the sport’s broadcast relationship with ESPN, which we believe will result in further exposure for NASCAR racing. First, we believe the NASCAR Busch Series will significantly benefit from the improved continuity of its season-long presence on ESPN. In addition, we believe the sport as a whole will benefit from the increased ancillary programming and nightly and weekly NASCAR-branded programming and promotions, similar to what ESPN does with the other major sports. The most significant benefit of the new contracts is the substantial increase in earnings and cash flow visibility for the entire industry over the contract period.
As media rights revenues fluctuate so do the variable costs tied to the percentage of broadcast rights fees required to be paid to competitors as part of NASCAR NEXTEL Cup, Busch and Craftsman Truck series sanction agreements. NASCAR prize and point fund monies, as well as sanction fees (“NASCAR direct expenses”), are outlined in the sanction agreement for each event and are negotiated in advance of an event. As previously discussed, included in these NASCAR direct expenses are 25.0 percent of the gross domestic television broadcast rights fees allocated to our NASCAR NEXTEL Cup, Busch and Craftsman Truck series events as part of prize and point fund money. These annually negotiated contractual amounts paid to NASCAR contribute to the support and growth of the sport of NASCAR stock car racing through payments to the teams and sanction fees paid to NASCAR. As such, we do not expect these costs to decrease in the future as a percentage of admissions and motorsports related income. We anticipate any operating margin improvement to come primarily from economies of scale and controlling costs in areas such as motorsports related and general and administrative expenses.
Economic conditions may impact our ability to secure revenues from corporate marketing partnerships. However, we believe that our presence in key markets and impressive portfolio of events are beneficial as we continue to pursue renewal and expansion of existing marketing partnerships and establish new corporate marketing partners. We believe that revenues from our corporate marketing partnerships will continue to grow over the long term.
Our growth strategy includes investing in certain joint ventures opportunities. In these equity investments we exert significant influence on the investee but do not have effective control over the investee. Our consolidated net income includes our share of the net earnings or losses from these investees. Equity investments include certain risks that can adversely impact our financial position and results of operations. In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2005 we partnered with Speedway Motorsports, Inc. (“SMI”) in our 50/50 joint venture, SMISC, LLC, which, through its wholly-owned subsidiary Motorsports Authentics, LLC conducts business under the name Motorsports Authentics. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2005 and the first quarter of fiscal 2006, Motorsports Authentics acquired Team Caliber and Action Performance, Inc. (“Action Performance”) and became a leader in design, promotion, marketing and distribution of motorsports licensed merchandise. While Motorsports Authentics has made significant progress subsequent to its acquisitions of Team Caliber and Action Performance, in order to accelerate the improvement of its business operations and more effectively position itself for long-term success it hired a new as President and Chief Executive Officer in June 2007. Under this new leadership, Motorsports Authentics initiated a comprehensive review of its business. Based on this preliminary evaluation to date, we now expect Motorsports Authentics to recognize a loss between $15.0 million and $20.0 million for fiscal 2007. Our 50.0 percent share of this loss is expected to result in an approximate $0.15 to $0.20 reduction in our annual diluted per share after-tax earnings, which assumes limited income tax benefit recognized from such loss. At the

Table of Contents

present time we continue to believe in the strategic rationale for our equity investment and that Motorsports Authentics has significant potential for generating future growth in earnings and cash flow.
An important component of our operating strategy has been our long-standing practice of focusing closely on supply and demand regarding additional capacity at our facilities. We continually evaluate the demand for our most popular racing events in order to add capacity that we believe will provide an acceptable rate of return on invested capital. Through prudent expansion, we attempt to keep demand at a higher level than supply, which stimulates ticket renewals and advance sales. Advance ticket sales result in earlier cash flow and reduce the potential negative impact of actual and forecasted inclement weather on ticket sales. While we will join with sponsors to offer promotions to generate additional ticket sales, we avoid rewarding last-minute ticket buyers by discounting tickets. We believe it is more important to encourage advance ticket sales and maintain price integrity to achieve long-term growth than to capture short-term incremental revenue. We recognize that a number of factors relating to discretionary consumer spending, including economic conditions affecting disposable consumer income such as employment and other lifestyle and business conditions, can negatively impact attendance at our events. Accordingly, we have instituted only modest increases in our weighted average ticket prices for fiscal 2007. In addition, we have limited the expansion of our facilities in fiscal 2007 to projects at our Richmond International Raceway (“Richmond”) which were completed for its NASCAR NEXTEL Cup and Busch series spring events. Richmond removed approximately 2,900 obstructed view grandstand seats from Turns 3 and 4 and added approximately 7,800 grandstand seats in a new, state-of-the-art, 180 foot tall structure located in Turn 1. The new, three-tiered grandstand also includes a 700-person, members-only Club for individual fans looking to enjoy a race weekend in style or businesses seeking to entertain clients. The Club will also serve as a unique site for special events on non-race weekends throughout the year. We will continue to evaluate expansion opportunities, as well as the pricing and packaging of our tickets and other products, on an ongoing basis. Over the long term, we plan to continue to expand capacity at our speedways.
Since we compete with newer entertainment venues for patrons and sponsors, we will continue to evaluate opportunities to enhance our facilities, thereby producing additional revenue generating opportunities for us and improving the experience for our guests. One major example of these efforts is the infield renovation at Daytona International Speedway (“Daytona”) that was completed for the start of the 2005 racing season. The infield renovation features numerous fan amenities and unique revenue generating opportunities, including garage walk-through areas, additional merchandise and concessions vending areas, waterfront luxury recreational vehicle parking areas, a large tunnel to accommodate team haulers and guest recreational vehicles in and out of the infield and other special amenities such as the infield’s signature structure, the Daytona 500 Club. The fan and guest response to our renovation efforts at Daytona has been overwhelmingly positive and has resulted in incremental direct and, we believe, indirect revenue generation. Another example of our efforts to enhance the fan experience includes the fiscal 2005 renovation of Michigan International Speedway’s (“Michigan”) front stretch, including new ticket gates, new vendor and display areas, and several new concession stands, as well as the addition of club seats and luxury suites. For fiscal 2006, we completed additional renovation projects at California Speedway (“California”) and Talladega Superspeedway (“Talladega”). At California, we renovated and expanded the facility’s front midway area. The new plaza features a full-service outdoor café with cuisine by celebrity chef Wolfgang Puck, in addition to a town center, retail store and concert stage. Other highlights include shade features, modified entry gates, expanded hospitality areas, radio broadcast locations, giant video walls, leisure areas and grass and water accents. This project was the direct result of fan feedback, and further demonstrates our commitment to providing a premium entertainment environment for our guests. We also repaved Talladega’s 2.6 mile oval. Talladega’s racing surface had not been repaved since 1979, and we believe the newly paved racing surface enhanced the thrilling on-track competition.
Current Litigation
From time to time, we are a party to routine litigation incidental to our business. We do not believe that the resolution of any or all of such litigation will have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations.
In addition to such routine litigation incident to our business, we are a party to the litigation described below.
In July 2005, Kentucky Speedway, LLC filed a civil action in the Eastern District of Kentucky against NASCAR and us alleging that “NASCAR and ISC have acted, and continue to act, individually and in

26


Table of Contents

combination and collusion with each other and other companies that control motorsports entertainment facilities hosting NASCAR NEXTEL Cup Series, to illegally restrict the award of ... NASCAR NEXTEL Cup Series [races].” The complaint was recently amended to seek, in addition to damages, an injunction requiring NASCAR to “develop objective factors for the award of NEXTEL Cup races”, “divestiture of ISC and NASCAR so that the France Family and anyone else does not share ownership of both companies or serve as officers or directors of both companies”, “ISC’s divestiture of at least 8 of its 12 racetracks that currently operate a NEXTEL Cup race” and prohibiting further alleged violations of the antitrust laws. Curiously, the complaint does not ask the court to cause NASCAR to award a NEXTEL Cup race to the Kentucky Speedway. Other than some vaguely conclusory allegations, the complaint fails to specify any specific unlawful conduct by us. Pre-trial “discovery” in the case was recently concluded and based upon all of the evidentiary materials adduced we believe even more strongly than before that the case is without legal or factual merit. At this point the likelihood of a materially adverse result appears to be remote, although there is always an element of uncertainty in litigation. It is premature to attempt to quantify the potential magnitude of a remotely possible adverse decision, although we intend to continue to defend ourselves vigorously while maintaining potential claims and remedies available to us to recover the damages caused by the filing of the suit. At a status conference in late May 2007 the Court modified the timeline for the case to extend the time periods for the conclusion of submission of summary judgment materials until September 24, 2007 and to tentatively set the date for a trial (if needed) of up to five weeks beginning in March 2008. The fees and expenses associated with the defense of this suit are not covered by insurance and could adversely impact our financial condition or results of operations and cash flows, even if we prevail. Further, the time devoted to this matter by management and the possible impact of litigation on business negotiations occurring prior to resolution of this matter could also adversely impact our financial condition or results of operations and cash flows. Finally, even if the direct effect of the resolution of this case does not result in a material adverse impact on us, it is remotely possible that the resolution of this case could result in industry wide changes in the way race schedules are determined by sanctioning bodies, which could indirectly have a material adverse impact on us.
Postponement and/or Cancellation of Major Motorsports Events
The postponement or cancellation of one or more major motorsports events could adversely impact our future operating results. A postponement or cancellation could be caused by a number of factors, including, but not limited to, inclement weather, a widespread outbreak of a severe epidemiological crisis, a general postponement or cancellation of all major sporting events in this country (as occurred following the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks), a terrorist attack at any mass gathering or fear of such an attack, conditions resulting from the war in Iraq or other acts or prospects of war.
Seasonality and Quarterly Results
We derive most of our income from a limited number of NASCAR-sanctioned races. As a result, our business has been, and is expected to remain, highly seasonal based on the timing of major racing events. For example, one of our NASCAR NEXTEL Cup races is traditionally held on the Sunday preceding Labor Day. Accordingly, the revenues and expenses for that race and/or the related supporting events may be recognized in either the fiscal quarter ending August 31 or the fiscal quarter ending November 30.
Future schedule changes as determined by NASCAR or other sanctioning bodies, as well as the acquisition of additional, or divestiture of existing, motorsports facilities could impact the timing of our major events in comparison to prior or future periods.
Because of the seasonal concentration of racing events, the results of operations for the three and six month periods ended May 31, 2006 and 2007 are not indicative of the results to be expected for the year.

The comparison of the three and six months ended May 31, 2007 to the same periods of the prior year is impacted by the following factors:
    Fiscal 2006 was our last year under NASCAR’s multi-year consolidated television broadcast rights agreement with NBC Sports, Turner Sports, FOX, and FX. Beginning in 2007, NASCAR has entered into new combined eight year agreements with FOX, ABC/ESPN, TNT, and Speed for the domestic broadcast and related rights for its NEXTEL Cup, Busch, and Craftsman Truck series. While the average annual broadcast rights for the contract beginning in 2007 is higher than the average for the contract ending in 2006, 2007 rights fees will be less than the 2006 rights fees. See discussion under “Future Trends in Operating Results.”
 
    On February 2, 2007, we acquired the 62.5 percent ownership interest in Raceway Associates we did not previously own, bringing our ownership to 100.0 percent. This acquisition was accounted for as a business combination and the operations of Raceway Associates are included in our consolidated operations subsequent to the date of acquisition. Prior to this date, we had accounted for their operations as an equity method investment.
 
    An IRL event and NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series event was held at the Kansas Speedway (“Kansas”) in the third quarter of fiscal 2006. The corresponding events were conducted in the second quarter of fiscal 2007.

28


Table of Contents

    Grand American events were held at Phoenix International Raceway (“Phoenix”) and Homestead Miami Speedway (“Miami”) in the second fiscal quarter of 2006 while no corresponding events were held in the second fiscal quarter of 2007.
 
    Richmond completed its aforementioned seat and club addition project in the second quarter of fiscal 2007.
 
    In the second quarter of fiscal 2007 we recognized impairments of long-lived assets totaling approximately $9.1 million, or $0.11 per diluted share after-tax, primarily attributable to the aforementioned discontinuance of the speedway development in Kitsap County, Washington and the costs associated with the fill removal process at our Staten Island property.
Admissions revenue increased approximately $8.0 million, or 16.2 percent, and $7.7 million, or 7.4 percent, during the three and six months ended May 31, 2007, respectively, as compared to the same periods of the prior year. The increases for the three and six month periods are primarily attributable to the aforementioned timing of events at Kansas, seat and club additions at Richmond and, to a lesser extent, other non-comparable events during the periods.
Motorsports related revenue was consistent for the three months ended May 31, 2007 and decreased approximately $5.8 million, or 2.7 percent, during the six months ended May 31, 2007, as compared to the same respective periods of the prior year. The previously discussed decrease in the television broadcast and ancillary rights for our NASCAR NEXTEL Cup, Busch, and Craftsman Truck Series is offset by the timing of events at Kansas as well as increases in sponsorship, advertising and other revenues for comparable events and activities during the second quarter. The decrease in television broadcast and ancillary rights are partially offset by the aforementioned factors and other first quarter event revenues for the six month period.
Food, beverage and merchandise revenue increased approximately $2.0 million, or 11.2 percent, and decreased approximately $660,000, or 1.6 percent, during the three and six months ended May 31, 2007, respectively, as compared to the same periods of the prior year. The increase for the three month period is primarily attributable to the timing of events at Kansas, seat and club additions at Richmond and, to a lesser extent, certain other non-comparable events during the period. Attendance for certain NASCAR events conducted during Speedweeks at Daytona contributed to a decrease in the six-month period.
Prize and point fund monies and NASCAR sanction fees decreased approximately $754,000, or 2.2 percent, and $2.8 million, or 4.1 percent, during the three and six months ended May 31, 2007, as compared to the same periods of the prior year. The decrease is primarily attributable to the previously discussed decrease in television broadcast rights fees for the NASCAR NEXTEL Cup, Busch and Craftsman Truck series events during the period as standard NASCAR sanctioning agreements require specific percentage of television broadcast rights fees be paid to competitors. This decrease is partially offset by the timing of the NASCAR Craftsman Truck event at Kansas.
Motorsports related expenses increased by approximately $6.4 million, or 19.7 percent, and $6.5 million, or 10.3 percent, during the three and six months ended May 31, 2007, respectively, as compared to the same periods of the prior year. The increases are primarily attributable to the timing of events at Kansas, the consolidation of Raceway Associates and increases in other event related expenses driven significantly by rescheduled events at Richmond and Darlington Raceway due to inclement weather. Motorsports related expenses as a percentage of combined admissions and motorsports related revenue increased to approximately 24.4 percent and 21.6 percent for the three and six months ended May 31, 2007, as compared to 21.5 percent and 19.7 percent for the same respective periods in the prior year. The margin decrease is primarily due to the previously discussed decrease in television broadcast and ancillary rights fees for the NASCAR NEXTEL Cup, Busch, and Craftsman Truck Series events during the three and six month periods combined with the aforementioned expense increases, partially offset by increases in certain motorsports related revenues during the respective periods.
Food, beverage and merchandise expense increased approximately $648,000, or 5.7 percent, and decreased approximately $1.7 million, or 6.8 percent, during the three and six months ended May 31, 2007, respectively, as compared to the same periods of the prior year. The increase for the three month period is impacted by the timing of events at Kansas and certain other non-comparable events. The decrease for the six month period is primarily attributable to the lower cost of sales in all areas of this business and variable

cost associated with lower sales related to certain decreases in attendance in the first quarter partially offset by the aforementioned timing of events in the second quarter. Food, beverage and merchandise expense as a percentage of food, beverage and merchandise revenue decreased to approximately 59.7 percent and 58.2 percent for the three and six months ended May 31, 2007, as compared to 62.8 percent and 61.4 percent for the same respective periods in the prior year. The margin increase for the three month period is primarily attributable to the improved merchandising margins at certain events. The margin increase for the six month period is attributable to margin increases in all areas of this business.
General and administrative expenses increased approximately $3.8 million, or 13.7 percent, and $7.5 million, or 14.7 percent, during the three and six months ended May 31, 2007, respectively, as compared to the same periods of the prior year. These increases are primarily related to costs of litigation, the consolidation of Raceway Associates, certain operating costs related to our pursuit of development projects as well as a net increase in costs related to the growth of our core business. General and administrative expenses as a percentage of total revenues increased to approximately 17.3 percent and 16.0 percent for the three and six months ended May 31, 2007, as compared to 16.1 percent and 14.0 percent for the same respective periods in the prior year. The increases are primarily due to the previously discussed decrease in television broadcast and ancillary rights fees for the NASCAR NEXTEL Cup, Busch, and Craftsman Truck series events combined with aforementioned expense increases partially offset by revenue for certain non-comparable events during the three and six month periods.
Depreciation and amortization expense increased approximately $7.5 million, or 54.2 percent, and $11.9 million, or 43.7 percent, during the three and six months ended May 31, 2007, respectively, as compared to the same periods of the prior year. The increase is primarily attributable to approximately $4.6 million of depreciation recognized during the three months ended May 31, 2007, attributable to certain of our existing offices and other buildings which are expected to be razed during the next 6 to 24 months as part of our Daytona Live! project in Daytona Beach (see further discussion in “Future Liquidity”). In addition, we recognized approximately $2.6 million in additional depreciation associated with a building located in Daytona Beach, Florida which ceased being used in the first fiscal quarter of 2007 and was subsequently razed. The remaining increase is related to our acquisition of Raceway Associates in February 2007, Talladega’s track repaving, suite and seat additions added at Phoenix in fiscal 2006, and other ongoing capital improvements.
The $9.1 million non-cash charge for impairment of long-lived assets is primarily attributable to our announcement on April 2, 2007, that we were abandoning our pursuit of the development of a motorsports entertainment facility in Kitsap County, Washington. In addition, in May 2007, we entered into the Consent Order with DEC for the fill removal process on our Staten Island property and accrued the estimated total costs for such fill removal. See discussion under “Future Liquidity – Speedway Developments.”
Interest income decreased by approximately $148,000, or 13.6 percent, and increased $276,000, or 13.7 percent, during the three and six months ended May 31, 2007, respectively, as compared to the same periods of the prior year. The three month decrease is primarily due to lower average cash and short-term investment balances as a result of cash used for the acquisition of the remaining interest in Raceway Associates in February 2007 and the implementation of a stock repurchase program in late December 2006, partially offset by higher yields on investments. The six month increase is due to higher average cash and short-term investment balances early in the first quarter coupled with higher yields on investments.
Interest expense increased by approximately $868,000, or 30.6 percent, and $840,000, or 12.2 percent, during the three and six months ended May 31, 2007, respectively, as compared to the same periods of the prior year. The increases during the three and six month periods are primarily due to less capitalized interest and the assumption of third party debt in connection with the Raceway Associates acquisition. The increase during the six month period is also due to by borrowings on our credit facility to partially finance the acquisition of the remaining interest in Raceway Associates which were paid off early in our second quarter.
Equity in net loss from equity investments represents our 50.0 percent equity investment in SMISC, LLC, and our pro rata share of the loss from our 37.5 percent equity investment in Raceway Associates prior to the acquisition of the remaining interest in February 2007. Because of the seasonal concentration of racing events, the results of operations for the three and six month periods ended May 31, 2007, are not indicative of the results to be expected for the year.

Our effective income tax rate increased to approximately 42.5 percent and 40.2 percent, for the three and six months ended May 31, 2007, respectively, as compared to 36.3 percent and 38.2 percent for the same respective periods of the prior year. These increases are is primarily a result of one time benefits relating to discrete items in the second quarter of fiscal 2006, including the implementation of certain restructuring initiatives and the finalization of certain state tax matters. The tax treatment associated with the losses incurred in our equity investments and certain state tax implications relating to the aforementioned impairment of long-lived assets recognized in the second quarter of fiscal 2007 also contributed to the increased rate. A decrease in our overall blended state tax rate and deposits made during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2006 and first quarter of fiscal 2007 with the Internal Revenue Service (“Service”) to stop the accrual of interest on contested items in our ongoing federal tax examination partially offset the overall increased rate. See “Future Liquidity” for further discussion regarding the examination of our federal income tax returns.
As a result of the foregoing, our income from continuing operations decreased from approximately $30.7 million to approximately $18.4 million, or 40.1 percent, during the three months ended May 31, 2007, as compared to the same period of the prior year and from approximately $74.9 million to $54.2 million, or 27.5 percent, during the six months ended May 31, 2007, as compared to the same period of the prior year.
The operations of Nazareth are presented as discontinued operations, net of tax, for all periods presented in accordance with SFAS No. 144.
As a result of the foregoing, net income decreased from approximately $30.7 million, or $0.58 per diluted share, to approximately $18.4 million, or $0.35 per diluted share, during the three months ended May 31, 2007, as compared to the same period of the prior year and from approximately $74.7 million, or $1.40 diluted shares, to approximately $54.2 million, or $1.02 per diluted share, during the six months ended May 31, 2007, as compared to the same period of the prior year. The decrease in the earnings per diluted share is partially offset by the reduction in the weighted average shares outstanding as a result of the previously discussed stock repurchase program.

We have historically generated sufficient cash flow from operations to fund our working capital needs and capital expenditures at existing facilities, as well as to pay an annual cash dividend. In addition, we have used the proceeds from offerings of our Class A Common Stock, the net proceeds from the issuance of long-term debt, borrowings under our credit facilities and state and local mechanisms to fund acquisitions and development projects. At May 31, 2007, we had cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments totaling approximately $99.3 million and long-term debt outstanding, including the current portion, of approximately $378.9 million. The long-term debt includes approximately $11.0 million of Raceway Associates’ long-term debt which was assumed in the acquisition. We had a working capital deficit of approximately $88.2 million at May 31, 2007, primarily as a result of the cash paid in connection with the Raceway Associates’ acquisition. At November 30, 2006, we had working capital of approximately $7.3 million.
Our liquidity is primarily generated from our ongoing motorsports operations, and we expect our strong operating cash flow to continue in the future. In addition, as of May 31, 2007, we have approximately $300.0 million available to draw upon under our revolving credit facility, if needed. See “Future Liquidity” for additional disclosures relating to our credit facility and certain risks that may affect our near term operating results and liquidity.
Cash Flows
Net cash provided by operating activities was approximately $159.5 million for the six months ended May 31, 2007, compared to approximately $161.1 million for the six months ended May 31, 2006. The difference between our net income of approximately $54.2 million and the approximately $159.5 million of operating cash flow was primarily attributable to:
    an increase in deferred income of approximately $85.7 million;

31


Table of Contents

    depreciation and amortization expense of approximately $39.1 million;
 
    deferred income taxes of approximately $7.8 million;
 
    non-cash impairments of long-lived assets of approximately $6.1 million;
 
    loss from equity investments of approximately $4.6 million; and
 
    an increase in income taxes payable of approximately $3.0 million.
These differences were partially offset by an increase in accounts receivable of approximately $24.3 million, an increase in inventories, prepaid expenses and other assets of approximately $13.2 million and deposits with the Internal Revenue Service of approximately $7.1 million.
Net cash used in investing activities was approximately $84.3 million for the six months ended May 31, 2007, compared to approximately $205.1 million for the six months ended May 31, 2006. Our use of cash for investing activities reflects our acquisition of the remaining 62.5 percent interest in Raceway Associates we did not previously own totaling approximately $87.1 million, net of cash acquired, approximately $56.1 million in capital expenditures and purchases of short-term investments of approximately $24.6 million. This use of cash is partially offset by approximately $83.5 million in proceeds from the sale of short-term investments.
Net cash used in financing activities was approximately $54.8 million for the six months ended May 31, 2007, compared to approximately $130,000 for the six months ended May 31, 2006. Cash used in financing activities reflects $65.0 million of payments under our 2006 Credit Facility and payments of approximately $28.7 million of long-term debt assumed in connection with the acquisition of Raceway Associates and approximately $26.5 million in acquisitions of previously issued common stock. Partially offsetting the cash used is $65.0 million in borrowings under our 2006 Credit Facility.
Capital Expenditures
Capital expenditures totaled approximately $56.1 million for the six months ended May 31, 2007, compared to approximately $54.3 million for the six months ended May 31, 2006. The capital expenditures during the six months ended May 31, 2007, relate to the construction of certain buildings supporting our operations and administration functions in Daytona Beach, Florida, seats and club additions at Richmond and a variety of other improvements and renovations to our facilities.
At May 31, 2007, we have approximately $59.7 million in capital projects currently approved for our existing facilities. These projects include the acquisition of land and land improvements at various facilities for expansion of parking, camping capacity and other uses, the repaving of Darlington’s racing surface, and a variety of other improvements and renovations to our facilities that enable us to effectively compete with other sports venues for consumer and corporate spending.
As a result of these currently approved projects and estimated additional approvals in fiscal 2007, we expect our total fiscal 2007 capital expenditures at our existing facilities will be approximately $80.0 million to $90.0 million, depending on the timing of certain projects.
We review the capital expenditure program periodically and modify it as required to meet current business needs.

Long-Term Obligations and Commitments
On April 23, 2004, we completed an offering of $300.0 million principal amount of unsecured senior notes in a private placement. On September 27, 2004, we completed an offer to exchange the senior notes for registered senior notes with substantially identical terms (“2004 Senior Notes”). At May 31, 2007, outstanding 2004 Senior Notes totaled approximately $300.6 million, net of unamortized discounts and premium, which is comprised of $150.0 million principal amount unsecured senior notes, which bear interest at 4.2 percent and are due April 2009, and $150.0 million principal amount unsecured senior notes, which bear interest at 5.4 percent and are due April 2014. The 2004 Senior Notes require semi-annual

32


Table of Contents

interest payments on April 15 and October 15 through their maturity. The 2004 Senior Notes may be redeemed in whole or in part, at our option, at any time or from time to time at redemption prices as defined in the indenture. Our wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries are guarantors of the 2004 Senior Notes.
In January 1999, the Unified Government of Wyandotte County/Kansas City, Kansas (“Unified Government”), issued approximately $71.3 million in taxable special obligation revenue (“TIF”) bonds in connection with the financing of construction of Kansas Speedway. At May 31, 2007, outstanding TIF bonds totaled approximately $67.3 million, net of the unamortized discount, which is comprised of a $18.7 million principal amount, 6.2 percent term bond due December 1, 2017 and a $49.7 million principal amount, 6.8 percent term bond due December 1, 2027. The TIF bonds are repaid by the Unified Government with payments made in lieu of property taxes (“Funding Commitment”) by our wholly-owned subsidiary, Kansas Speedway Corporation. Principal (mandatory redemption) payments per the Funding Commitment are payable by Kansas Speedway Corporation on October 1 of each year. The semi-annual interest component of the Funding Commitment is payable on April 1 and October 1 of each year. Kansas Speedway Corporation granted a mortgage and security interest in the Kansas project for its Funding Commitment obligation.
In October 2002, the Unified Government issued subordinate sales tax special obligation revenue bonds (“2002 STAR Bonds”) totaling approximately $6.3 million to reimburse us for certain construction already completed on the second phase of the Kansas Speedway project and to fund certain additional construction. The 2002 STAR Bonds, which require annual debt service payments and are due December 1, 2022, will be retired with state and local taxes generated within the Kansas Speedway’s boundaries and are not our obligation. Kansas Speedway Corporation has agreed to guarantee the payment of principal, any required premium and interest on the 2002 STAR Bonds. At May 31, 2007, the Unified Government had approximately $3.8 million in 2002 STAR Bonds outstanding. Under a keepwell agreement, we have agreed to provide financial assistance to Kansas Speedway Corporation, if necessary, to support its guarantee of the 2002 STAR Bonds.
In connection with our February 2, 2007, acquisition of the 62.5 percent ownership interest in Raceway Associates we did not previously own, we assumed approximately $39.7 million in third party debt, consisting of three bank term loans and two revenue bonds payable. The first bank term loan (“Chicagoland Term Loan”) was a construction loan for the development of Chicagoland with principal outstanding at the date of acquisition of approximately $28.4 million. The Chicagoland Term Loan had an original ten year term and was due November 15, 2012, with equal payments of principal, in the amount of $1.2 million, and interest due quarterly. We paid the remaining principal and accrued interest on the Chicagoland Term Loan subsequent to the acquisition in February 2007. The second bank term loan (“4.9 percent Bank Loan”) consists of a construction and mortgage note with principal outstanding at the date of acquisition of approximately $3.3 million, original 20 year term due June 2018, with a current interest rate of 4.9 percent and a monthly payment of $48,000 principal and interest. The interest rate and monthly payments will be adjusted on June 1, 2008, and 2013. At May 31, 2007, outstanding principal on the 4.9 percent Bank Loan was approximately $3.2 million. The third bank term loan (“6.3 percent Bank Loan”) consists of a mortgage note with principal outstanding at the date of acquisition of approximately $271,000, original five year term due February 2008, with a fixed interest rate of 6.3 percent and a monthly payment of $25,000 principal and interest. At May 31, 2007, outstanding principal on the 6.3 percent Bank Loan was approximately $200,000. The first revenue bonds payable (“5.8 percent Revenue Bonds”) consist of economic development revenue bonds issued by the City of Joliet, Illinois to finance certain land improvements with principal outstanding at the date of acquisition of approximately $2.5 million. The 5.8 percent Revenue Bonds have an initial interest rate of 5.8 percent and a monthly payment of $29,000 principal and interest. The interest rate will be adjusted on June 1, 2008 and will continue until maturity in June 2018. At May 31, 2007, outstanding principal on the 5.8 percent Revenue Bonds was approximately $2.4 million. The second revenue bonds payable (“6.8 percent Revenue Bonds”) are special service area revenue bonds issued by the City of Joliet, Illinois to finance certain land improvements with principal outstanding at the date of acquisition of approximately $5.2 million. The 6.8 percent Revenue Bonds are billed and paid as a special assessment on real estate taxes. Interest payments are due on a semi-annual basis at 6.8 percent with principal payments due annually. Final maturity of the 6.8 percent Revenue Bonds is January 2012. At May 31, 2007, outstanding principal on the 6.8 percent Revenue Bonds was approximately $5.2 million.
On June 16, 2006, we entered into a $300.0 million revolving credit facility (“2006 Credit Facility”). The 2006 Credit Facility allows us to increase the credit facility to a total of $500.0 million, subject to certain

33


Table of Contents

conditions. The 2006 Credit Facility is scheduled to mature in June 2011, and accrues interest at LIBOR plus 30.0-80.0 basis points, based on the our highest debt rating as determined by specified rating agencies.
We have guaranteed minimum royalty payments under certain agreements through December 2015, with a remaining maximum exposure at May 31, 2007, of approximately $12.5 million.
Speedway Developments
In light of NASCAR’s publicly announced position regarding additional potential realignment of the NASCAR NEXTEL Cup Series schedule, we also believe there are potential development opportunities in other new, underserved markets across the country. As such, we have been and are exploring opportunities for public/private partnerships targeted to develop one or more motorsports entertainment facilities in new markets, including Denver, Colorado, the Northwest US and the New York Metropolitan area.
Denver Speedway Development
In February 2007, we announced that we are exploring the possibility of pursuing a public-private partnership to develop a national-level motorsports entertainment facility in the Denver metropolitan region.
Through a wholly-owned subsidiary, we are evaluating a number of land parcels, and look forward to working with public entities to explore the feasibility of a jointly funded motorsports entertainment facility that could accommodate approximately 75,000 fans and bring considerable economic impact to the area.
The project is in a very early phase and we do not have a pre-determined timetable for concluding our potential site evaluation or determining a specific course of action concerning the pursuit of a public-private partnership to fund the project.
Northwest US Speedway Development
In June 2005, we announced we had secured an option to purchase approximately 950 acres for the development of a motorsports entertainment facility in Kitsap County, Washington, approximately 20 miles outside of Seattle, Washington, the country’s 14th largest media market. State legislation was required to create a Public Speedway Authority and authorize the issuance of bonds to help finance the project. In early February 2007, the necessary legislation was introduced into both the Washington State House of Representatives and Senate in hopes of successfully completing this stage of the process. On April 2, 2007, we announced that despite agreeing to substantial changes to the legislation, it became apparent that additional modifications would be proposed to the bill. Due to the increased risk that the collective modifications would have a significant negative impact on the project’s financial model, we felt it was in our best long-term interest to discontinue our efforts at the Kitsap County site. As a result, we have terminated our land option and recorded a non-cash pre-tax charge in the fiscal 2007 second quarter of approximately $5.9 million, or $0.07 per diluted share after-tax, to reflect the write-off of certain capitalized costs including legal, consulting, capitalized interest and other project-specific costs. We still believe the Pacific Northwest represents an attractive long-term opportunity, and remain interested in a motorsports entertainment facility development project in the region.
New York Metropolitan Speedway Development
During fiscal 1999, we announced our intention to search for a site for a major motorsports entertainment facility in the New York metropolitan area. Our efforts included the evaluation of many different locations. Most recently, we identified a combination of land parcels in the New York City borough of Staten Island aggregating approximately 676 acres that we targeted for the development of a major motorsports entertainment and retail development project. Our then majority-owned subsidiary, 380 Development, purchased the total 676 acres for approximately $110.4 million in early fiscal 2005.
In December 2006, we announced our decision to discontinue pursuit of a speedway development on Staten Island. The decision was driven by a variety of factors, including: (1) the inability to secure the critical local political support that is necessary to secure the required land-use change approvals for a speedway development; (2) even if we had secured the necessary political support, it became apparent that we would have been faced with unacceptable approval requirements, including operational restrictions that would have made the facility difficult to operate and a significant challenge to market; and (3) the increased risk

34


Table of Contents

that these unacceptable approval requirements could result in higher construction spending and annual operating costs, which would have a significant negative impact on the financial model for the speedway development.
Our operating and development agreements with The Related Companies have been terminated, the note payable to us from Related which was secured by a pledge of Related’s 12.4 percent proportionate minority interest in 380 Development has been cancelled and the minority interest surrendered to us.
The decision to discontinue our speedway development efforts on Staten Island resulted in a non-cash, pre-tax charge in our fiscal 2006 fourth quarter results of approximately $84.7 million, or $1.01 per diluted share after-tax. Accounting rules generally accepted in the US require that the property be valued at its then current fair value, which was estimated by an independent appraisal at approximately $65.0 million. Prior to the write-off, we had capitalized spending of approximately $150.0 million through November 30, 2006, including: (1) $123.0 million for land and related improvements, (2) $11.0 million for costs related solely to the development of the speedway, and (3) $16.0 million for capitalized interest and property taxes. The value of the property is expected to be in excess of $100.0 million once it is filled and ready for sale. As previously discussed, we ceased fill operations while we address certain issues the DEC and DOS raised, including the presence of, and potential need to remediate, fill containing constituents above regulatory thresholds. In May 2007, we entered into a Consent Order with DEC to resolve the issues surrounding these fill operations and the prior placement of fill at the site that contained constituents above regulatory thresholds. The Consent Order requires us to remove non-compliant fill pursuant to the comprehensive fill removal plan. The Consent Order also required us to pay a penalty to DEC of $562,500, half of which was paid in May 2007 and the other half of which has been suspended so long as we comply with the terms of the Consent Order. We recognized the estimated total costs, including the penalty paid, attributable to the expected fill removal process totaling approximately $2.9 million, or $0.04 per diluted share after-tax, in the second quarter of fiscal 2007. We are currently evaluating the existence of other responsible parties and potential recoveries from such parties, if any. We continue to work with the DEC and other agencies to resolve these issues and expect to resume fill operations within the next several months after appropriate regulatory approvals are obtained. The costs associated with the fill removal process are expected to be paid within the next several months, once the DEC has approved our plan and the fill is removed.
We have begun to market the property for disposition and anticipate engaging in discussions with several potential buyers and/or joint venture partners over the next several months. Our prior market demand studies indicate that the most likely future use will be port-related industrial development. We continue to evaluate various alternative strategies for the Staten Island acreage, including potentially selling the property in whole or in parts, or developing the property with a third party for some other use. Given that the property is the largest undeveloped acreage of land in the five boroughs of New York City, we believe it will be attractive to a wide range of developers and users. The site is currently zoned as-of-right for industrial use and could provide ease of access through a deep-water dock located on site. Also, the property can be easily accessed from the local highway system.
Although we are disappointed that our speedway development efforts were unsuccessful on Staten Island, we remain committed to pursuing the development of a motorsports entertainment facility in the region. Due to the considerable interest in and support for NASCAR racing in the metro New York market, we believe a premier motorsports entertainment facility will have a significant positive impact on the area’s economy and prove to be a long-term community asset.
Daytona Live! Development
In May 2007, we announced we had entered into a 50/50 joint venture (the “Joint Venture”) with The Cordish Company (“Cordish”), one of the largest and most respected developers in the country, to explore a potential mixed-use entertainment destination development to be named Daytona Live!, on 71 acres we currently own. Located directly across International Speedway Boulevard (U.S. Highway 92) from our Daytona motorsports entertainment facility, the acreage currently includes several office buildings that house our corporate headquarters and certain related operations of ours, NASCAR and Grand American. Preliminary conceptual designs call for a 200,000 square foot mixed-use retail/dining/entertainment area as well as a 2,500-seat movie theater, a residential component and a 160-room hotel. In addition, the redevelopment could also include approximately 200,000 square feet of office space to house the headquarters of ISC, NASCAR, Grand American and their related businesses, and additional space for other tenants. Final design plans are expected to be completed by the end of 2007 and will incorporate the

35


Table of Contents

results of local market studies and further project analysis. The Joint Venture is hopeful to receive all necessary permitting and other approvals in the next twelve months. The current estimated cost for the redevelopment is approximately $250 million. Both ISC and Cordish will contribute an equal amount of equity to the joint venture. We expect our contribution to range between $15 million and $20 million in cash, as well as land currently owned. The remainder of the project will be primarily privately financed by the Joint Venture. However, specific financing considerations for the Joint Venture are dependent on several factors including lease arrangements and availability of public incentives. Lastly, if the Joint Venture proceeds with the project, it is expected that several of our existing offices and other buildings, which are not fully depreciated, will be razed during the next six to 24 months. This will result in a non-cash charge relating to additional depreciation of approximately $12.0 million in total, or $0.14 per diluted share after tax, over the final three quarters of fiscal 2007. Approximately $4.6 million, or $0.05 per diluted share after tax, of this additional depreciation is included in our second quarter fiscal 2007 results.
Internal Revenue Service Examination
The Service is currently performing a periodic examination of our federal income tax returns for the years ended November 30, 1999 through 2005 and has challenged the tax depreciation treatment of a significant portion of our motorsports entertainment facility assets. Through May 31, 2007, we have received reports from the Service requesting downward adjustments to our tax depreciation expense for the fiscal years ended November 30, 1999 through 2005, which could potentially result in the reclassification of approximately $101.1 million of income taxes from deferred to current. Including related interest, the combined after-tax cash flow impact of these requested adjustments is approximately $117.9 million. In order to prevent incurring additional interest, we have approximately $117.9 million on deposit with the Service as of May 31, 2007, which is classified as long-term assets in our consolidated financial statements. Our deposits are not a payment of tax, and we will receive accrued interest on any of these funds ultimately returned to us. Including related interest, we estimate the combined after-tax cash flow impact of future additional federal tax adjustments expected for fiscal 2006, and related state tax revisions and interest for all periods, to range between $30.0 million and $40.0 million at May 31, 2007. In June 2007 the Service commenced the administrative appeals process which is expected to take six to fifteen months to complete. If our appeal is not resolved satisfactorily, we will evaluate all of our options, including litigation. We believe that our application of the federal income tax regulations in question, which have been applied consistently since being adopted in 1986 and have been subjected to previous IRS audits, is appropriate, and we intend to vigorously defend the merits of our position. In accordance with SFAS No. 109 “Accounting for Income Taxes,” we have accrued a deferred tax liability based on the differences between our financial reporting and tax bases of such assets in our consolidated balance sheet as of May 31, 2007. While an adverse resolution of these matters could result in a material negative impact on cash flow, including payment of taxes from amounts currently on deposit with the Service, we believe that we have provided adequate reserves related to these matters including interest charges through May 31, 2007 totaling approximately $13.2 million, and, as a result, does not expect that such an outcome would have a material adverse effect on results of operations. It is important to note the Federal American Jobs Creation Act of 2004 legislation, which was effective on October 23, 2004, provides owners of motorsports entertainment facility assets a seven-year recovery period for tax depreciation purposes. The motorsports provision applies prospectively from the date of enactment through January 1, 2008. We and others in the industry are pursuing an extension of this seven-year prospective tax depreciation provision.
Future Cash Flows
Our cash flow from operations consists primarily of ticket, hospitality, merchandise, catering and concession sales and contracted revenues arising from television broadcast rights and marketing partnerships. We believe that cash flows from operations, along with existing cash, cash equivalents, short-term investments and available borrowings under our 2006 Credit Facility, will be sufficient to fund:
    operations and approved capital projects at existing facilities for the foreseeable future;
 
    payments required in connection with the funding of the Unified Government’s debt service requirements related to the TIF bonds;
 
    payments related to our existing debt service commitments;
 
    payments for share repurchases under our Stock Purchase Plan;

36


Table of Contents

    any potential payments associated with our keepwell agreements;
 
    any equity contributions in connection with the Daytona Live! development;
 
    any payment of tax that may ultimately occur as a result of the examination by the Service; and
 
    the fees and expenses incurred in connection with the current legal proceeding discussed in Part II “Legal Proceedings.”
We intend to pursue further development and/or acquisition opportunities (including the possible development of new motorsports entertainment facilities, such as the New York metropolitan area, the Northwest US, Denver and other areas), the timing, size and success, as well as associated potential capital commitments, of which are unknown at this time. Accordingly, a material acceleration of our growth strategy could require us to obtain additional capital through debt and/or equity financings. Although there can be no assurance, we believe that adequate debt and equity financing will be available on satisfactory terms.
While we expect our strong operating cash flow to continue in the future, our financial results depend significantly on a number of factors relating to consumer and corporate spending, including economic conditions affecting marketing dollars available from the motorsports industry’s principal sponsors. Consumer and corporate spending could be adversely affected by economic, security and other lifestyle conditions resulting in lower than expected future operating cash flows. General economic conditions were significantly and negatively impacted by the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks and the war in Iraq and could be similarly affected by any future attacks or fear of such attacks, or by conditions resulting from other acts or prospects of war. Any future attacks or wars or related threats could also increase our expenses related to insurance, security or other related matters. Also, our financial results could be adversely impacted by a widespread outbreak of a severe epidemiological crisis. The items discussed above could have a singular or compounded material adverse affect on our financial success and future cash flow.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.
During the six months ended May 31, 2007, there have been no material changes in our market risk exposures.
ITEM 4. DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Subsequent to May 31, 2007, and prior to the filing of this report, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures under the supervision of and with the participation of our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. Based on that evaluation, our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures, subject to limitations as noted below, were effective at May 31, 2007, and during the period prior to the filing of this report.
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 or 15d-15 that occurred during our last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure control procedures or our internal controls will prevent all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
From time to time, we are a party to routine litigation incidental to our business. We do not believe that the resolution of any or all of such litigation will have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations.
In addition to such routine litigation incident to its business, we are a party to the legal proceeding described below.
Current Litigation
In July 2005, Kentucky Speedway, LLC filed a civil action in the Eastern District of Kentucky against NASCAR and us alleging that “NASCAR and ISC have acted, and continue to act, individually and in combination and collusion with each other and other companies that control motorsports entertainment facilities hosting NASCAR NEXTEL Cup Series, to illegally restrict the award of ... NASCAR NEXTEL Cup Series [races].” The complaint was recently amended to seek, in addition to damages, an injunction requiring NASCAR to “develop objective factors for the award of NEXTEL Cup races”, “divestiture of ISC and NASCAR so that the France Family and anyone else does not share ownership of both companies or serve as officers or directors of both companies”, “ISC’s divestiture of at least 8 of its 12 racetracks that currently operate a NEXTEL Cup race” and prohibiting further alleged violations of the antitrust laws. Curiously, the complaint does not ask the court to cause NASCAR to award a NEXTEL Cup race to the Kentucky Speedway. Other than some vaguely conclusory allegations, the complaint fails to specify any specific unlawful conduct by us. Pre-trial “discovery” in the case was recently concluded and based upon all of the evidentiary materials adduced we believe even more strongly than before that the case is without legal or factual merit. At this point the likelihood of a materially adverse result appears to be remote, although there is always an element of uncertainty in litigation. It is premature to attempt to quantify the potential magnitude of a remotely possible adverse decision, although we intend to continue to defend ourselves vigorously while maintaining potential claims and remedies available to us to recover the damages caused by the filing of the suit. At a status conference in late May 2007 the Court modified the timeline for the case to extend the time periods for the conclusion of submission of summary judgment materials until September 24, 2007 and to tentatively set the date for a trial (if needed) of up to five weeks beginning in March 2008. The fees and expenses associated with the defense of this suit are not covered by insurance and could adversely impact our financial condition or results of operations and cash flows, even if we prevail. Further, the time devoted to this matter by management and the possible impact of litigation on business negotiations occurring prior to resolution of this matter could also adversely impact our financial condition or results of operations and cash flows. Finally, even if the direct effect of the resolution of this case does not result in a material adverse impact on us, it is remotely possible that the resolution of this case could result in industry wide changes in the way race schedules are determined by sanctioning bodies, which could indirectly have a material adverse impact on us.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
This report and the documents incorporated by reference may contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. You can identify a forward-looking statement by our use of the words “anticipate,” “estimate,” “expect,” “may,” “believe,” “objective,” “projection,” “forecast,” “goal,” and similar expressions. These forward-looking statements include our statements regarding the timing of future events, our anticipated future operations and our anticipated future financial position and cash requirements. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in our forward-looking statements are reasonable, we do not know whether our expectations will prove correct. We previously disclosed in response to Item 1A to Part I of our report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended November 30, 2006 the important factors that could cause our actual results to differ from our expectations. Except as set forth below there have been no material changes to those risk factors.
Our success depends on the availability and performance of key personnel
Following the death of our Chairman, William C. France, on June 4, 2007, our continued success depends more than ever upon the availability and performance of the remainder of our senior management team,

38


Table of Contents

including James C. France, Lesa France Kennedy and John R. Saunders. Each of these individuals possesses unique and extensive industry knowledge and experience. While we believe that our senior management team has significant depth, the additional loss of any of the individuals mentioned above, or our inability to retain and attract key employees in the future, could have a negative effect on our operations and business plans.
We are subject to changing governmental regulations and legal standards that could increase our expenses
With the exception of issues concerning the fill operations on Staten Island raised by the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (“DEC”) and the New York City Department of Sanitation (“DOS”), including the presence of, and potential need to remediate, fill containing constituents above permitted regulatory thresholds, we believe that our operations are in material compliance with all applicable federal, state and local environmental, land use and other laws and regulations. In May 2007, we entered into a Consent Order with DEC to resolve several issues surrounding these fill operations and the acceptance of fill at the site that did not comply with certain regulatory standards. The Consent Order requires us to remove non-compliant fill pursuant to the comprehensive fill removal plan. The Consent Order also required us to pay a penalty to DEC of $562,500, half of which was paid in May 2007 and the other half of which will be held in abeyance so long as we comply with the terms of the Consent Order. Nonetheless, if it is determined that damage to persons or property or contamination of the environment has been caused or exacerbated by the operation or conduct of our business or by pollutants, substances, contaminants or wastes used, generated or disposed of by us, or if pollutants, substances, contaminants or wastes are found on property currently or previously owned or operated by us, we may be held liable for such damage and may be required to pay the cost of investigation and/or remediation of such contamination or any related damage. The amount of such liability as to which we are self-insured could be material. State and local laws relating to the protection of the environment also can include noise abatement laws that may be applicable to our racing events. Our existing facilities continue to be used in situations where the standards for new facilities to comply with certain laws and regulations, including the Americans with Disabilities Act, are constantly evolving. Changes in the provisions or application of federal, state or local environmental, land use or other laws, regulations or requirements to our facilities or operations, or the discovery of previously unknown conditions, also could require us to make additional material expenditures to remediate or attain compliance.

In December 2006 we announced that our Board of Directors had authorized a share repurchase program (“Stock Purchase Plan”) under which we may purchase up to $50.0 million of our outstanding Class A common shares. In July 2007, our Board of Directors authorized an increase to the Stock Purchase Plan under which we now may purchase up to $150.0 million of our outstanding Class A common shares through November 30, 2008. The timing and amount of any shares repurchased under the Stock Purchase Plan will depend on a variety of factors, including price, corporate and regulatory requirements, capital availability and other market conditions. The Stock Purchase Plan may be suspended or discontinued at any time without prior notice. No shares have been or will be knowingly purchased from Company insiders or their affiliates. During the six months ended May 31, 2007, we purchased 501,432 shares of our Class A common shares, at an average of approximately $51.81 per share, for a total of approximately $26.0 million under the Stock Purchase Plan. The transactions occurred in open market purchases and pursuant to a trading plan under Rule 10b5-1.
