(PRESS RELEASE) -- Boyd Gaming Corporation today announced that it has completed the previously announced sale of its 50% equity interest in Marina District Development Holding Co., LLC, the parent company of Borgata Hotel Casino and Spa in Atlantic City, New Jersey, to MGM Resorts International.

Boyd Gaming received net cash proceeds of $589 million from the transaction, after deducting its share of Borgata's currently outstanding debt. These proceeds do not include Boyd Gaming's 50% share of any future property tax settlement benefits.
