AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES INTERIM CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - The interim condensed 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 condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 1996. The results of operations for the period ended June 30, 1997 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 1997. 2. RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS The Financial Accounting Standards Board recently issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128 (FASB 128), EARNINGS PER SHARE, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997. FASB 128 establishes standards for computing and presenting earnings per share to make them comparable to international earnings per share standards and requires dual presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share for entities with complex capital structures. After adoption, the Company expects there will be no material effect on the presentation or computation of its earnings per share. The Financial Accounting Standards Board recently issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130 (FASB 130), REPORTING COMPREHENSIVE INCOME, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997. FASB 130 establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components in a full set of general-purpose financial statements. The Company has not yet determined the effect adoption of FASB 130 will have on disclosures in its consolidated financial statements. The Financial Accounting Standards Board recently issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131 (FASB 131), DISCLOSURES ABOUT SEGMENTS OF AN ENTERPRISE AND RELATED INFORMATION, which is effective for financial statements for periods beginning after December 15, 1997. FASB 131 establishes standards for the way that public business enterprises report information about operating segments in annual financial statements and requires that those enterprises report selected information about operating segments on interim financial reports issued to shareholders. It also establishes standards for related disclosures about products and services, geographic areas and major customers. The Company has not yet determined the effect adoption of FASB 131 will have on disclosures in its consolidated financial statements. 6 3. LETTER OF INTENT The Company announced on April 18, 1997 that it had signed an agreement for the purchase of the Deadwood Gulch Resort ("DGR"). The agreement expired without a sale taking place and the contract was not extended beyond the intended May 1, 1997 closing date. The Company will continue its efforts to sell DGR. 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 $3,220 recorded in the three months ended March 31, 1997. ****** 7 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS. RECENT DEVELOPMENTS The Company announced that its Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Allen Paulson, has presented to the Company for its consideration certain gaming industry investments in which he is personally involved or is considering. Those include possible acquisition transactions relating to Riviera Holdings Corporation and Elsinore Corporation (which owns the Four Queens Casino in Las Vegas), a contingent interest in the Gold River Hotel and Casino in Laughlin, Nevada, and a riverboat formerly operated as the Treasure Bay Casino in Tunica, Mississippi. The Board of Directors of the Company has formed a special committee of directors to evaluate whether, and to what extent, the Company may become involved in the investments and transactions presented by Mr. Paulson. There can be no assurance that any of these transactions will occur or that the Company will determine to become involved in them. The agreement with entities controlled by Kenneth L. Kellar for the purchase of Deadwood Gulch Resort, which was announced on April 18, 1997, expired without a sale taking place. The contract was not extended beyond the intended May 1, 1997 closing date, and the buyer's deposit was returned. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS THREE MONTHS AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1997 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1996 Revenues for the three months ended June 30, 1997 increased $457,771 or 27.8% to $2,106,764 as compared with revenues of $1,648,993 for the three months ended June 30, 1996. This increase, combined with the increase in revenues for the first three months of 1997, resulted in an increase in revenues for the six months ended June 30, 1997 over the prior year period of $1,048,338 or 38.4% to $3,775,924. JOINT VENTURE INCOME Joint Venture income increased $601,631 or 277% and $1,203,919 or 309% for the three month and six month periods ended June 30, 1997 as compared to the comparable period in 1996. This increase is due to inclusion of the Delaware joint venture income, which was not in operation until August 1996, and to the improved operating results from the Oregon joint venture. OREGON JOINT VENTURE. The Company's share of income from the Oregon joint venture increased $8,199 or 3.6% and $49,792 or 11.9% as compared to the comparable period in 1996, respectively, for the three month and six month periods ended June 30, 1997. The facility has experienced improvements in its operating results due to improved marketing of and road access to the casino. 8 DELAWARE JOINT VENTURE. The Company's share of income from the Delaware joint venture was $597,652 and $1,151,881, respectively, for the three month and six month periods ended June 30, 1997. Midway Slots and Simulcast began operations in August of 1996. As reported by the Delaware Lottery Board, Midway Slots & Simulcast had a net win of $14,822,048 and $28,658,280 for the three months and six months ended June 30, 1997, respectively. As a result of operating results exceeding initial projections, Midway Slots and Simulcast has prepaid a portion of its obligation to the Delaware joint venture. The joint venture, in turn, prepaid a portion of the obligation to the Company in July and August. This obligation was $1,090,592 at June 30, 1997. CALIFORNIA AND MICHIGAN JOINT VENTURES. The Company's share of the loss from the California and Michigan joint ventures declined by $1,790 during the six month period ended June 30, 1997. However, during the three month period ended June 30, 1997, the loss increased by $4,674. These joint venture companies continue to pursue opportunities using the most efficient and cost effective methods available, and are still in the development stage and do not have operating revenues. DEADWOOD GULCH RESORT The annual report of the South Dakota Commission on Gaming, which was released during the second quarter of 1997, announced that gaming revenues in Deadwood had declined by 6.4% in 1996 and that only 40% of the gaming businesses were profitable in 1996 versus 58% in 1995. This trend has continued during 1997 with a further decline in gaming revenues and the regional national parks attendance figures (Mount Rushmore, Badlands National Park and Yellowstone National Park). These factors have significantly impacted the operating results of Deadwood Gulch Resort. As a result of management programs, departmental profits for the first six months of 1997 declined only by $30,885 despite a decline in revenues of $155,581. CASINO OPERATIONS. Revenues decreased 13.1% for the three months ended June 30, 1997 over 1996. As a result of departmental expenses decreasing 7.3% over 1996, department profit decreased $30,430. Revenues decreased 11.1% for the six months ended June 30, 1997 over 1996. As a result of departmental expenses decreasing 0.9%, departmental profit decreased $71,753 as compared to the same period in 1996. Management attributes the decline in revenues to the general decline in the market area explained above and aggressive giveaways by other casinos. HOTEL/RV RESORT. Hotel/RV Resort Revenues increased 3.8%, to $365,707, for the three months ended June 30, 1997 as compared to 1996. Hotel/RV Resort departmental profit increased $34,385 or 17.6%. For the six months ended June 30, 1997, revenues and departmental profits increased $40,538 and $75,439, respectively, as compared to the same period in 1996. Management attributes the improvements to more efficient cost-reduction measures in both the Hotel and RV Resort. RETAIL. For the six months ended June 30, 1997, revenues decreased by $18,445 to $528,910 and departmental profits decreased by $10,433, as compared to the same period in 1996. Revenues decreased by $35,336 or 11.0% for the three months ended June 30, 1997 from 1996. Department profit of $17,402 for the three months ended June 30, 1997 was $14,270 lower than the prior year period based upon the fact that the sales declined as a result of lower tourism and increased pricing competition. 9 FOOD AND BEVERAGE. Revenues for the three months and six months ended June 30, 1997 were $169,188 and $342,346, respectively, (which includes $25,140 and $52,606 of promotional allowances). The departmental income after subtracting promotional allowances increased $12,066 over the six month period ended June 30, 1996. Management attributes the improvement to better management of cost of sales and other departmental expenses. GULCHES OF FUN FAMILY CENTER. For the six months ended June 30, 1997, revenues decreased $101,721, however, departmental profits increased $10,925 as compared to the same period in 1996. Revenues for the three months ended June 30, 1997 decreased $55,142 from 1996 and department profits decreased $1,714 from the comparable period in 1996. SALES AND MARKETING EXPENSES. Sales and Marketing expenses increased $22,141 for the three months ended June 30, 1997 as compared to the prior year period. For the six months ended June 30, 1997, expenses increased by $42,831 as compared to the same period in 1996. Management attributes the increase to efforts to maintain market share. GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES - RESORT. For the six months ended June 30, 1997, expenses increased by $3,640 as compared to 1996. Expenses decreased $7,042 for the three months ended June 30, 1997 from the comparable period in 1996. DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION. Depreciation and amortization decreased $742 and $3,147 for the three months and six months ended June 30, 1997, respectively, over the comparable periods in 1996. 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. Further analysis of the estimated realizable value of the Deadwood Gulch Resort assets resulted in an additional impairment loss of $250,000 recorded during the three month period ended March 31, 1996 and $3,220 for the three month period ended June 30, 1997. Pursuant to SFAS No. 121, the Company has suspended recording depreciation of the assets of the Deadwood Gulch Resort. GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATION EXPENSES. Non-Resort expenses for the six months ended June 30, 1997 totaled $817,473, a decrease of $11,341 over the prior year period. For the three months ended June 30, 1997, expenses decreased by $39,794 as compared to the same period in 1996. In 1997, 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. INTEREST EXPENSE AND DEBT ISSUE COSTS. For the six months ended June 30, 1997, interest expense and debt issue cost decreased by $23,654 as compared to 1996. Interest expense and debt issue costs decreased by $51,456 during the three months ended June 30, 1997 primarily due to reduced levels of debt. INTEREST AND OTHER INCOME. Interest and other income increased by $12,222 and $28,992 during the three months and six months ended June 30, 1997. 10 INCOME TAX EXPENSE. State income tax expense was $82,400 and $128,425 for the second quarter and the six months ended June 30, 1997, respectively, and -0- for the same periods in 1996. At June 30, 1997, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards for federal income tax purposes of approximately $3,010,000, which may be carried forward to offset future taxable income. The loss carryforwards expire in 2007 through 2010. The availability of the loss carryforwards may be limited in the event of a significant change in ownership of the Company or its subsidiaries. EARNINGS BEFORE INTEREST, TAXES, DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA), for the three months and six months ended June 30, 1997 improved by $611,797 and $1,184,375, respectively, over 1996 after exclusion of the impairment of long-lived assets (sale of Deadwood Gulch Resort) to $538,908 for the three months and $830,569 for the six months ended June 30, 1997. EBITDA should not be construed as an indication of the Company's operating performance, or as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity. The Company has presented EBITDA solely as supplemental disclosure because the Company believes that it enhances the understanding of the financial performance of companies with substantial depreciation and amortization. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES For the six month period ended June 30, 1997, cash of $772,481 was used in operating activities. Included was the net income of $175,684, more fully explained above, increased by depreciation and amortization of $256,678, debt issue costs and debt discount of $128,556, a decrease in restricted cash and prepaid expenses of $81,484 and $63,521, respectively, and other net changes of $114,914, but increased by the equity earnings of joint ventures of $1,593,318. Cash flow from investing activities was provided in the amount of $1,105,792 as a result of payments from the joint venture companies. Included were distributions from joint ventures of $1,621,487 and net change of $1,290 for assets sold and purchased reduced by increases in investments and receivables from the joint ventures of $516,985. Cash flows used by financing activities were the result of proceeds from the exercise of warrants of $3,500, reduced by repayment of debt totaling $141,706. As a result of the above factors, there was a net increase in cash and cash equivalents of $195,105. During the first six months of 1997, the Company working capital surplus improved by $666,304 or 69%. 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, 8.5% at June 30, 1997, and such principal amount, together with all accrued interest, is due and payable in full upon demand by the holder(s) of this note. 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. Full House is a party to a series of agreements with GTECH Corporation, a leading supplier of computerized systems and services for government-authorized lotteries, to jointly pursue certain gaming opportunities. Pursuant to the agreements, joint venture companies 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, Nottawaseppi Huron Band of Potawatomi and Delaware State Fair projects to the joint venture companies. 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 has guaranteed to GTECH one-half of a $2.0 million loan to the North Bend, Oregon Indian Tribe. GTECH also provides project management, technology and other expertise to analyze and develop/manage the implementation of 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 11 the joint venture companies for certain advances and expenditures made by Full House relating to the gaming development agreements. As part of this transaction, Allen E. Paulson, William P. McComas and Lee Iacocca have granted to GTECH an option to purchase their shares should they propose to transfer the same. The parties are no longer required to present gaming opportunities to the other for joint development. The Company advanced funds to the Delaware joint venture company during 1996 and 1995 totaling $1,886,498, of which $1,090,592 was outstanding as of June 30, 1997. Such amount bears interest at prime plus 1% (9.5% at June 30, 1997) and is payable from available operating cash flow of the joint venture company. The note is secured by a similar payable from Midway Slots and Simulcast, a division of Harrington Raceway, Inc. to the Delaware joint venture company with the same terms and interest rate. As the note is payable to FHRI based upon available cash flows, the current portion as of June 30, 1997 reflects payments made through August 8, 1997. 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. Full House has determined that continued ownership of the Deadwood Gulch Resort is not consistent with its future growth plans. No assurance can be given that a sale will ultimately be consummated. 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. As of June 30, 1997, Full House had cumulative undeclared and unpaid dividends in the amount of $1,050,000 on the 700,000 outstanding shares of its 1992-1 Preferred Stock. Such dividends are cumulative whether or not declared, and are currently in arrears. Full House had a working capital surplus of $1,632,554 as of June 30, 1997. Additional financing will be required for the Company to effect its business strategy and no assurance can be given that such financing will be available upon commercially reasonable terms. 12 PART II - OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 3.
