On March 26, 2018, Full House Resorts, Inc. (the "Company") closed its previously-announced registered direct offering for a total of 3,943,333 shares of its common stock at a price of $3.00 per share, resulting in gross proceeds to the Company of $11,829,999. Mr. Ellis Landau, a director of the Company, purchased 100,000 shares of common stock in the offering. Net proceeds to the Company from the offering are expected to be approximately $11.5 million, after deducting placement agent fees and estimated offering expenses payable by us. The Company anticipates using the net proceeds from the offering for general corporate purposes, including Phase One of its planned expansion of Bronco Billy's Casino and Hotel in Cripple Creek, Colorado. Phase One includes exercising its options to purchase the Imperial Hotel and certain parcels of land adjacent to Bronco Billy's, and constructing a 286-space parking garage. Phase One also includes completing the refurbishment of the Imperial Hotel and refurbishing and re-opening the Imperial Casino, which the Company has the option to either lease or purchase.

The Company also reimbursed Union Gaming for its expenses in connection with the offering in the amount of $25,000.

The offering was made pursuant to the Company's shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-222390), which was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") on January 12, 2018. The registration statement includes a base prospectus, a preliminary prospectus supplement filed with the Commission on March 22, 2018 and a final prospectus supplement filed with the Commission on March 26, 2018.
