Race Track KPIs.
Race tracks / speedways (motorsport, horse, or greyhound) are large single-purpose entertainment-venue real estate whose economics are event-driven: a limited calendar of races plus concerts and other rentals, with revenue from admissions, sponsorship, hospitality/suites, F&B, parking, and (at racinos) gaming. Value tracks event count, attendance, ancillary capture per attendee, and any gaming license. Ilora.ai ingests the event calendar and attendance reports, the operating P&L, and ancillary-revenue detail, benchmarking revenue per event and per attendee.

- NOI
- Total revenue minus operating expenses (excludes financing and capital costs). The primary measure of property-level profitability.
- Cap Rate
- Net Operating Income divided by current property value. Expresses unleveraged annual yield as a percentage.
- DSCR
- Net Operating Income divided by total annual debt service. Lender-required cushion measure; below 1.0 means NOI cannot cover debt.
- LTV
- Loan amount divided by property value. Lower LTV = lower lender risk.
- OER
- Operating expenses divided by gross revenue. Lower is better, but varies by property type (hotels run higher than triple-net retail).
- GRM
- Property value divided by gross annual rental income. Quick valuation shortcut; less precise than cap rate.
- IRR
- Annualized return on investment accounting for time value of money across the full hold period.
- CoC
- Pre-tax annual cash flow divided by total cash invested. Measures the cash yield, not total return.
- DCF
- Valuation method that projects future cash flows and discounts them to present value at a chosen rate.
- TTM
- A rolling sum of the most recent 12 months. Smooths seasonality for KPI comparisons.
- Rounds
- Total golf rounds played in a year. The fundamental demand measure for golf courses.
- Slip Occ
- Percentage of marina slips occupied. Marina equivalent of hotel occupancy.

Frequently asked
Common questions about race track.
- How is a race track valued?
- Event-driven: a limited calendar of races plus concerts and rentals, with revenue from admissions, sponsorship, hospitality/suites, F&B, parking, and (at racinos) gaming. Value tracks event count, attendance, ancillary capture per attendee, and any gaming license — closer to a stadium/entertainment venue than an income-property.
