Virginia McDowell, the Company's president and chief executive officer, commented,
"We grew Adjusted EBITDA for the seventh consecutive quarter with 11 of 14 properties reporting Adjusted EBITDA increases. This quarter marks an important achievement in our continuing efforts to optimize our marketing reinvestment. As we continue to target our marketing dollars toward more profitable customers, we strategically reduced promotional allowances nearly 10% during the quarter, which also resulted in a slight reduction in our gross revenues. Nonetheless, in combination with prudent expense management, we grew Adjusted EBITDA by 9.3%, resulting in flow through of more than 200% and a 160-basis-point increase in operating margins.
"We continue to use our free cash flow to invest in our properties and deleverage our balance sheet. We are renovating hotel rooms and food and beverage outlets, upgrading our technology platforms and introducing new products to our casino floors. At the same time, we reduced our debt balance by $30 million during the quarter. Our balance sheet is now in the best shape it has been in over a decade."
Financial Highlights
Net revenues for the current quarter were $236.3 million compared to $234.5 million in the prior year quarter, up 0.8%. Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA was $48.4 million for the quarter compared to $44.3 million in the prior year quarter, up 9.3%. Adjusted EBITDA margin increased to 20.5% from 18.9%. Interest expense was $17.0 million relative to $21.1 million in the prior year quarter, as a result of our lower overall debt balance as well as the benefits of refinancing our 7.75% Senior Notes due 2019, completed early in the first quarter of fiscal 2016.
Operating results in the prior year's quarter were impacted by $3.0 million in expenses related to a voter referendum in Colorado and a favorable property tax settlement related to our Waterloo property of $1.2 million.
On October 19, 2015, we closed our gaming operations in Natchez, Mississippi and completed the previously announced sale of our hotel and certain non-gaming assets to Casino Holding Investment Partners, LLC, the parent company of Magnolia Bluffs Casino in Natchez. During the quarter, we recorded a gain of $6.4 million on the sale of these assets, which was partially offset by severance and operating losses incurred during the quarter. The gain and operating results of Natchez are reflected in discontinued operations for all periods presented.
On a GAAP basis, diluted income per share from continuing operations was $0.19 compared to a diluted loss per share from continuing operations of ($0.00) in the prior year's quarter. Net income per share was $0.28 for the quarter, relative to a net loss of ($0.03) per share in the prior year quarter. Adjusted income per share from continuing operations was $0.19 for the quarter compared to adjusted net income per share from continuing operations of $0.05 in the prior year.
Operating Results
(All comparisons are to the prior year quarter)
Black Hawk - Net revenues increased $0.9 million, or 2.6%, to $33.6 million and Adjusted EBITDA increased $1.0 million to $9.9 million, at our two casinos in Black Hawk. Black Hawk benefited from more effective marketing spend during the quarter.
Pompano - Net revenues increased 4.9%, to $38.5 million, and Adjusted EBITDA increased 17.0%, to $7.3 million at Pompano Park. The property benefited from continued improved customer reinvestment and favorable market trends.
Iowa - Net revenues for our Iowa properties increased $0.1 million to $47.0 million, while Adjusted EBITDA decreased $0.2 million to $13.1 million. Net revenues and Adjusted EBITDA were essentially flat at our Waterloo and Marquette properties. Our Bettendorf property continues to be impacted by on-going construction disruption related to the build-out of our land-based casino as well as ongoing construction related to the I-74 bridge near the property.
Lake Charles - Net revenues decreased $2.2 million, to $28.9 million, or 7.1%, while Adjusted EBITDA decreased $1.0 million to $3.5 million, or 21.7%. Results continue to be impacted by the opening of a new competitor in the market in December of 2014.
Mississippi - Net revenues for Lula and Vicksburg were flat at $19.1 million. Adjusted EBITDA increased 30.9%, to $3.9 million from $3.0 million. In Lula, we improved Adjusted EBITDA 35.0%, to $2.6 million, and improved operating margins nearly 600 bps through lower operating costs. Vicksburg's Adjusted EBITDA increased 23.0%, to $1.3 million from $1.0 million. Vicksburg's operating margins increased over 320 bps as a result of targeted customer reinvestment and reduced operating costs.
Missouri - Net revenues for our Missouri properties increased $0.7 million to $59.6 million, or 1.2%, and Adjusted EBITDA increased $1.6 million to $16.0 million, or 11.4%. Adjusted EBITDA and operating margins increased at each of our four Missouri properties during the quarter. In Caruthersville, we improved Adjusted EBITDA and operating margins by 37.4% and 530 bps, respectively, primarily as a result of recent capital improvements to the property that included new parking and slots. Cape Girardeau's Adjusted EBITDA increased 34.6% through reductions in cost of sales and other operating and marketing costs. Cape Girardeau's results also include the negative impact of approximately $0.1 million of legal fees associated with a lawsuit related to the original construction at the property that was settled subsequent to the end of the quarter. Boonville and Kansas City's Adjusted EBITDA increased 3.1% and 1.5%, respectively. We are currently renovating the hotel at Boonville and during the quarter there were over 4,000 fewer room nights available, or approximately one-third of the hotel, which impacted results.
Pennsylvania - Net revenues were $9.6 million, up 6.6%, and Adjusted EBITDA increased $0.4 million from prior year's quarter to slightly positive EBITDA. We continue to grow the database, fine tune the operating cost structure and optimize reinvestment levels.
Corporate Expenses
Corporate and development expenses were $7.0 million for the quarter compared to $6.7 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2015, primarily related to an increase in non-cash stock compensation expense, offset by the timing of our long-term incentive award, which occurred in the first quarter of the current fiscal year versus the second quarter of the prior fiscal year.
Non-cash stock compensation expense was $1.6 million for the quarter compared to $1.1 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2015. Excluding stock compensation expenses, corporate and development expenses declined 4.0%.
Capital Structure and Capital Expenditures
As of October 25, 2015, the Company had:
-- $60.2 million in cash and cash equivalents, excluding $9.8 million in restricted cash and investments; -- $958.6 million in total debt; and -- $190 million in net line of credit availability.
Capital expenditures were $33.2 million in the six months ended October 25, 2015, including $28.8 million of maintenance and gaming equipment purchases as well as spending related to the hotel renovations in Bettendorf and Boonville. We have spent $4.4 million to date this fiscal year on the previously announced up to $60 million land-based project at Bettendorf. For the project to date, we have expended $6.6 million.
Consistent with previous guidance, the Company continues to expect total capital expenditures for fiscal 2016 of approximately $100 million to $105 million, inclusive of approximately $45 million to $50 million of capital spending this fiscal year related to the land-based casino build out in Bettendorf.

1. Adjusted EBITDA is "earnings from continuing operations before interest and other non-operating income (expense), income taxes, stock-based compensation, certain severance expenses, certain expenses related to the Colorado gaming referendum, certain property tax and legal settlements, valuation charges, certain asset sale gains and depreciation and amortization." Adjusted EBITDA is presented solely as a supplemental disclosure because management believes that it is 1) a widely used measure of operating performance in the gaming industry, 2) used as a component of calculating required leverage and minimum interest coverage ratios under our Senior Credit Facility and 3) a principal basis of valuing gaming companies. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA as the primary measure of the Company's operating properties' performance, and it is an important component in evaluating the performance of management and other operating personnel in the determination of certain components of employee compensation. Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an alternative to operating income as an indicator of the Company's operating performance, as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity or as an alternative to any other measure determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). The Company has significant uses of cash flows, including capital expenditures, interest payments, taxes and debt principal repayments, which are not reflected in Adjusted EBITDA. Also, other gaming companies that report Adjusted EBITDA information may calculate Adjusted EBITDA in a different manner than the Company. A reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to income (loss) from continuing operations is included in the financial schedules accompanying this release. Certain of our debt agreements use a similar calculation of "Adjusted EBITDA" as a financial measure for the calculation of financial debt covenants and includes add back of items such as gain on early extinguishment of debt, preopening expenses, certain write-offs and valuation expenses, and non-cash stock compensation expense. Reference can be made to the definition of Adjusted EBITDA in the applicable debt agreements on file as Exhibits to our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. 2. Adjusted income (loss) is presented solely as a supplemental disclosure as this is one method management reviews and utilizes to analyze the performance of its core operating business. For many of the same reasons mentioned above related to Adjusted EBITDA, management believes Adjusted income (loss) and Adjusted income (loss) per share are useful analytic tools as they enable management to track the performance of its core casino operating business separate and apart from factors that do not impact decisions affecting its operating casino properties, such as gain (loss) on early extinguishment of debt, certain severance expenses, certain expenses related to the Colorado gaming referendum, certain property tax and legal settlements, valuation charges, certain asset sale gains and preopening expenses. Management believes Adjusted income (loss) and Adjusted income (loss) per share are useful to investors since these adjustments provide a measure of financial performance that more closely resembles widely used measures of performance and valuation in the gaming industry. Adjusted income (loss) and adjusted income (loss) per share do not include the gain (loss) on early extinguishment of debt, certain severance expenses, certain expenses related to the Colorado gaming referendum, certain property tax and legal settlements, valuation charges, certain asset sale gains and preopening expenses. 3. The Company incurred $3.0 million and $4.1 million of expense during the three months and six months ended October 26, 2014, respectively, related to the Colorado gaming expansion referendum. The Company had a favorable property tax settlement related to our Waterloo property of $1.2 million in during the three and six months ended October 26, 2014. The Company recorded $2.3 million of severance expense during the six months ended October 26, 2014, related to restructuring at the corporate office.
