NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - The interim consolidated financial
statements of Full House Resorts, Inc. (the "Company") included herein
reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary
to present a fair statement of the results for the interim periods
presented. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. Certain
information and note disclosures normally included in financial statements
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have
been omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission.
These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with
the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in Full
House Resorts, Inc.'s Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended
December 31, 1995.
The results of operations for the period ended March 31, 1996 are not
necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending
December 31, 1996.
CONSOLIDATION - The consolidated financial statements include the accounts
of the Company and all its majority-owned subsidiaries. All material
intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
2. RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS ADOPTED
In October 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123, "ACCOUNTING FOR
STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION," which was adopted by the Company during the
first quarter of 1996. SFAS No. 123 requires expanded disclosures of
stock-based compensation arrangements with employees and encourages (but
does not require) compensation cost to be measured based on the fair value
of the equity instrument awarded. Companies are permitted, however, to
continue to apply APB Opinion No. 25, which recognizes compensation cost
based on the intrinsic value of the equity instrument awarded. The Company
will continue to apply APB Opinion No. 25 to its stock-based compensation
awards to employees and will disclose the required pro forma effect on net
income and earnings per shares.
3. GTECH LOAN
On January 26, 1996, GTECH loaned the Company $3 million, which loan is
convertible through January 25, 1998, subject to regulatory approval, into
600,000 shares of the Company's common stock. The loan is non-interest
bearing through January 25, 1998, at which time the note begins to accrue
interest at the prime rate. Monthly interest only payments commence on
February 1, 1998, with the total principal and any unpaid interest due on
January 25, 2001.
4. LETTER OF INTENT
On April 9, 1996, the Company signed a non-binding letter of intent for
the sale of Deadwood Gulch Resort ("DGR"). Subsequently, during May 1996,
negotiations with the purchaser under the letter of intent terminated.
The Company will continue its efforts to sell DGR.
-6-
Because of the Company's intent to dispose of DGR, the Company has
reclassified certain assets of DGR to other assets - assets held for sale.
Further analysis of the estimated realizable value of the assets held for
sale resulted in an additional impairment loss of $250,000 recorded in the
quarter ended March 31, 1996.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
RECENT DEVELOPMENTS
Effective December 29, 1995, Full House entered into a series of
agreements with GTECH Corporation. Pursuant to the agreements, limited liability
joint venture companies were formed which are equally owned by GTECH and Full
House. The rights of Full House to agreements with various Indian tribes and the
Delaware State Fair were contributed to the joint ventures. See "Results of
Operations" and "Liquidity."
On April 9, 1996, the Company signed a non-binding letter of intent for
the purchase of the Deadwood Gulch Resort by RGB Deadwood Gulch L.L.C. On May
13, 1996, negotiations with the purchaser under the letter of intent terminated.
The Company will continue to attempt to sell the Resort. There can be no
assurance that the Company will be successful in its attempts to sell the Resort
on acceptable terms.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1996 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1995
Revenues for the three months ended March 31, 1996 increased $304,365
to $1,130,730, as compared with revenues of $826,365 for the three months ended
March 31, 1995. The increase was due to income from joint ventures of $172,168
and Resort revenues of $132,197.
JOINT VENTURES. During 1995, four limited liability joint venture
companies were formed by Full House and GTECH to pursue gaming opportunities and
to which Full House transferred three of its present gaming ventures. Excluded
were the Deadwood Gulch Resort and an additional venture where assignment was
not completed pending further discussions with the tribe and with the holder of
a 15% interest in that gaming contract. If assignment is not completed, Full
House will assign its rights to revenues and GTECH will bear an appropriate
portion of the expenses. Full House and GTECH each have a 50% interest in each
limited liability company. Full House's share of the income generated by those
companies was $172,168 for the three months ended March 31, 1996.
CASINO OPERATIONS. Revenues increased $20,015 or 7.2% for the three
months ended March 31, 1996 over the same period in 1995. Departmental expenses
decreased $24,764 or 8.7% for the three months ended March 31, 1996 from 1995.
As a result of the increase in revenues and decrease in expenses, departmental
profit increased by $44,779 as compared to the same period in 1995. Management
attributes the improvements to an aggressive promotion of tour bus business.
HOTEL/RV RESORT. Hotel occupancy increased 30.1% for the three months
ended March 31, 1996, and the average daily rate decreased by 13.0% to $35.77.
As a result, revenues for the period increased $23,286 or 12.7% for the Hotel.
Hotel/RV Resort departmental profit increased $10,248 or 15.7%. Management
attributes the improvements to an aggressive promotion of tour bus business.
RETAIL. Revenues increased by $32,483 or 16.7% for the three months
ended March 31, 1996 from 1995. Departmental profit of $14,529 for the
three months ended March 31, 1996 from 1995 was only slightly higher than
the prior year period based upon the fact that the increased sales were
primarily of low margin goods.
FOOD AND BEVERAGE. Revenues for the three months ended March 31, 1996
were $178,626 (which includes $48,808 of promotional allowances), an increase of
$59,119 or 49.5% from 1995 revenues of $119,507 (which included $36,548 of
promotional allowances for the three months ended March 31, 1995). The
-8-
departmental loss after subtracting promotional allowances decreased $21,641
over 1995. Management attributes the improvement to better cost of sales
management and the development of a new menu, repositioning the restaurant in
the market.
GULCHES OF FUN FAMILY CENTER. Revenues for the three months ended March
31, 1996 decreased $2,706 from 1995 and departmental loss decreased $3,844 from
the comparable period in 1995.
SALES AND MARKETING EXPENSES. Sales and Marketing expenses increased
$15,493 for the three months ended March 31, 1996 as compared to the prior year
period due to an aggressive tour bus program.
GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES - RESORT. Expenses decreased
$32,168 for the three months ended March 31, 1996 from the comparable period in
1995.
NON-RESORT GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATION EXPENSES. Non-Resort expenses for
the three months ended March 31, 1996 totaled $362,342, a decrease of $131,774
over the prior year period. In 1996, the Company continued to incur costs
related to the investigation, due diligence and pre-development of various
ongoing opportunities for expansion of its business and the increase in the
Company's corporate structure necessary to administer the Company's expansion.
DEPRECIATION. Depreciation and amortization decreased $32,005 for the
three months ended March 31, 1996 over the comparable period in 1995. This
decrease is due to suspension of depreciation of the Resort offset by the
amortization of goodwill.
IMPAIRMENT OF LONG LIVED ASSETS. In January, 1996, the Company
announced its intent to dispose of the Deadwood Gulch Resort. The Company
adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 121, ACCOUNTING FOR THE IMPAIRMENT OF
LONG-LIVED ASSETS AND FOR LONG-LIVED ASSETS TO BE DISPOSED OF, during the fourth
quarter of the year ended December 31, 1995. Under SFAS No. 121, the Company
reviews the carrying values of its long-lived and identifiable intangible assets
for possible impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate
that the carrying amount of assets may not be recoverable. Based upon available
information which indicates additional loss may be incurred upon disposition,
the Company further reduced the carrying value of the Deadwood Gulch Resort in
1996 by $250,000. Pursuant to SFAS No. 121, the Company has suspended recording
depreciation of the assets of the Deadwood Gulch Resort.
INTEREST EXPENSE AND DEBT ISSUE COSTS. Interest expense and debt issue
costs increased by $163,325 during the three months ended March 31, 1996
primarily due to refinancing the first mortgage on the Deadwood Gulch Resort.
INTEREST AND OTHER INCOME. Interest and other income increased to
$27,414 during the three months ended March 31, 1996 as compared to the
comparable period in 1995 due to interest earned on cash deposits as a result of
payments received as a result of the transactions with GTECH.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
For the three-month period ending March 31, 1996, cash flow used in
operating activities was $606,067. Cash flow from investing activities was
$11,094,272. The major item impacting this positive flow of cash from investing
activity was the formation of the joint venture companies with GTECH on January
26, 1996 and the receipt by the Company from GTECH and the joint venture
companies of approximately $11,174,000. Cash flow used in financing activities
was $8,186,662. The repayment of debt of $11,186,662 was offset by the
$3,000,000 proceeds from the issuance of a convertible note to GTECH. As a
result of the above, the Company's net cash and cash equivalents increased by
$2,301,543 to $2,883,072.
-9-
On March 24, 1994, Allen E. Paulson purchased 1,000,000 shares of Full
House's common stock for $800,000. Full House also issued 500,000 shares of its
Common Stock to Mr. Paulson in exchange for his agreement to individually
provide or to take such actions as were required for a financial institution to
provide a commercial line of credit to Full House in the minimum amount of $8
million. Full House valued the shares of stock at $.80 per share based upon the
size of the transaction, the fact that the shares were not registered and are
not subject to registration rights. In addition, a large block of shares was
repurchased by the Company from an unaffiliated then principal stockholder at a
price per share and time sequence reasonably close to the transaction with Mr.
Paulson. The 500,000 shares issued to Mr. Paulson as compensation for securing
the $8 million financing were charged as a period cost in Full House's results
of operation for 1994. On June 7, 1994, Bank of America, as a result of the
joint and several guarantees of the full amount of the loan by Mr. Paulson and
the other directors of Full House, provided Full House with a line of credit in
the amount of $8 million at the "reference rate" of Bank of America, N.A.
Amounts outstanding under this line of credit bear interest at the bank's
"reference rate" and are due and payable upon demand or, if no demand is made,
on July 1, 1996. Full House believes that it would have been unable to obtain
this line of credit without the actions of Mr. Paulson, as its financial
condition would not have supported such an extension of credit.
On March 23, 1995, LAI Associates, Inc., a corporation wholly-owned by
Lee Iacocca, merged with a subsidiary of Full House and became a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Full House. The Company issued 1,250,000 shares of Common Stock to
Mr. Iacocca. In exchange, the Company received LAI's interest in its agreements
with the Organized Tribes (55%), Nottawaseppi Huron Band of Potawatomi (55%),
Torres Martinez Desert Cahuilla Indians (50%) and Delaware State Fair (50%)
projects. The remainder of the interests in these projects was acquired through
the Omega merger described below. Subsequently, Full House returned to Mr.
Iacocca a 25% interest in a total of 21 acres of land in Branson, Missouri, and
a 50% interest in certain royalties receivable. In exchange, Mr. Iacocca
returned 193,529 shares of Common Stock to Full House in March, 1996.
On November 20, 1995, Full House merged a wholly-owned subsidiary into
Omega Properties Inc. (30% owned by William P. McComas, a director/stockholder
of the Company). In exchange, the shareholders of Omega received an aggregate of
500,000 shares of Full House Common Stock and a promissory note of Full House in
the principal amount of $375,000. The principal amount of this promissory note
accrues interest, payable quarterly, at a rate equal to the "prime" rate and
such principal amount, together with all accrued interest, is due and payable in
full upon demand by the holder(s) of this note, but in no event before August
31, 1996. William P. McComas received the note and Mr. Fugazy, the other
stockholder of Omega, received the shares in exchange for their interests as
shareholders of Omega. As a result of such merger, Full House obtained the
remaining 45% interests in the agreements with the Organized Tribes and the
Nottawaseppi Huron Band of Potawatomi and the remaining 50% interests in the
agreements with the Torres Martinez Desert Cahuilla Indians and the Delaware
State Fair.
Full House entered into a series of agreements with GTECH Corporation,
a leading supplier of computerized systems and services for
government-authorized lotteries, effective as of December 29, 1995 to jointly
pursue all existing (except the Deadwood Gulch Resort and certain other
specified projects) and future gaming opportunities. Pursuant to the agreements,
joint venture corporations equally owned by GTECH and Full House have been
formed. Full House has contributed its rights to the North Bend, Oregon facility
and the rights to develop the Torres Martinez and Delaware State Fair Projects
to the joint venture companies. Full House has agreed, subject to further
discussion with the Nottawaseppi Huron Band of Potawatomi and with the holder of
a 15% interest in that gaming contract, to assign to a joint venture company its
rights to develop a project with such Tribe. If the assignment is not completed,
Full House will assign its rights to revenues and GTECH will bear an appropriate
portion of the expenses related thereto. GTECH has contributed cash and other
intangible assets and has agreed to loan the joint venture entities up to $16.4
million to complete the North Bend, Oregon and Delaware facilities. Full House
has agreed to guarantee one-half of the obligations of the joint venture
companies to GTECH under these loans and at March 31, 1996 had guaranteed to
GTECH one- half of $10.4 million of such loans to the North Bend, Oregon joint
venture company. GTECH will also provide project management, technology and
other expertise to analyze and develop/manage the implementation of
-10-
opportunities developed by the joint venture entities. GTECH has also loaned
Full House $3 million, which loan is convertible, subject to regulatory approval
into 600,000 shares of Full House's Common Stock. In addition, Full House has
been reimbursed by one of the joint venture companies for certain advances and
expenditures made by Full House relating to the gaming development agreements.
As part of this transaction, the directors of Full House and Lee Iacocca have
granted to GTECH an option to purchase their shares should they propose to
transfer the same.
The current construction budget of the Delaware State Fair project
indicates that costs will exceed the $6 million loan commitment of GTECH to the
project by approximately $1.5 to $1.8 million. This will be funded by the joint
venture company equally owned by Full House and GTECH.
Although the agreement between Full House and GTECH establishes a
preference for obtaining non-recourse financing for the projects undertaken in
the joint venture companies, it may not be possible to obtain needed funds in
this manner. The agreement therefore provides that each of Full House and GTECH
are to fund their proportionate shares of the needed funds. In the event that
Full House is unable to obtain such funds on more favorable terms, GTECH has
agreed to lend to Full House its required portion of the financing at GTECH's
cost of financing plus 22.5% of Full House's share of the "Profits" from the
venture until the later of repayment of the loan or one year after the project
begins to receive revenues from patrons of the facilities comprising the
project. In the event that GTECH loans funds to a joint venture entity, Full
House has agreed to guarantee one-half of the obligations of the joint venture
company to GTECH.
As part of its agreement with GTECH and in addition to the amounts
referred to above, Full House borrowed $4 million from GTECH and repaid the same
on January 29, 1996. Interest expense was $270,517.
As a result of its agreements with GTECH, receipt by Full House of
revenues from the operations of projects (other than the Deadwood Gulch Resort)
is governed by the terms of the joint venture agreements applicable to such
projects. These contracts provide that net cash flow (after certain deductions)
is to be distributed monthly to Full House and GTECH. While Full House does not
believe that this arrangement will adversely impact its liquidity, no assurances
of the same can be given based upon the lack of operating experience with this
structure.
On July 19, 1995, an addendum to the agreement with the Coquille Indian
Tribe was executed. Pending regulatory approval, the addendum will reduce the
obligation of the Full House-GTECH joint venture company to provide financing to
$10.4 million, extend the date when repayments begin and modify the method of
computing participating rents (from net revenues to modified gross revenues) and
loan repayments. Lease and debt payments commenced on August 19, 1995, and
September 19, 1995, respectively.
On May 31, 1995, DGR borrowed $5 million, secured by its real property.
The proceeds from the loan were used to repay its obligation to H. Joe Frazier,
a stockholder and a then director of the Company, and to repay a portion of the
revolving note payable to Bank of America. The note bears interest at 10.25%
through May, 1996, and at prime plus 2-1/4% for the period June 1, 1996 through
May 1, 2002. Payments are due in monthly installments of principal and interest
based on a ten-year amortization with the remaining balance due on May 31, 2002.
A portion of the loan has been guaranteed by Messrs. Frazier, McComas and
Paulson. The agreements executed by DGR in connection with the note limit
payments by DGR to Full House. The agreements included financial covenants which
require maintenance of minimum tangible net worth and debt service coverage
ratios. The Company was not in compliance with these covenants at December 31,
1995. However, the lender has waived these defaults for the year ended December
31, 1995. The Company prepaid $751,827 of this indebtedness in March, 1996.
