US – MGM completes purchase of Rocksino Northfield Park
By Phil - 9 July 2018
MGM Growth Properties has completed the previously announced acquisition of the Hard Rock Rocksino Northfield Park for approximately $1.06bn from Milstein Entertainment.
MGP funded the acquisition with cash on hand and borrowings under its senior secured credit facility.
“We are excited about the addition of the market leading Hard Rock Rocksino to our portfolio. This transaction brings further geographic diversification and is expected to generate mid to high single digit percentage accretion to AFFO,” said James Stewart, Chief Executive Officer of MGM Growth Properties. “We look forward to welcoming the Rocksino team, customers and partners into our portfolio and have entered into a new agreement with Hard Rock to continue to serve as the manager.”
“The success of the Rocksino is a true testament to our hard working and dedicated employees and our loyal customers,” said Brock Milstein, former Chairman of the Rocksino Board. “The Rocksino is a perfect fit to MGP’s portfolio of high quality assets and I am certain that the legacy that has been created will continue for many years to come.”
