RESTATEMENT OVERVIEW

During the course of the Company’s third quarterly review of fiscal year 2007, management and the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm identified issues that, when corrected, had a material effect upon the Company’s previously issued financial statements.

On April 18, 2007, the Company filed quarterly results for the three and nine months ended January 28, 2007 (“First Restatement”). That interim filing, which was not reviewed by the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, contained all of the restatement items that the Company was aware of at the time of filing of the document, however the Company subsequently discovered additional errors which required restatement. As a result, the Company announced on June 19, 2007, that it would restate its third quarter ended January 28, 2007, and further restate prior periods (“Second Restatement”).

The financial statements presented herein reflect all restatement items, including those items which were presented in the Company’s quarterly filing for the three and nine months ended January 28, 2007, filed on April 18, 2007, and the additional restatement findings found subsequent to the filing of that document as noted above.

The cumulative effect of all adjustments through April 30, 2006, October 29, 2006 and January 28, 2007 on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets was a $5.4 million decrease, $0.9 million increase and $1.9 million decrease to retained earnings, respectively; a $3.0 million increase, $3.6 million increase and $2.0 million increase to additional paid-in-capital, respectively; and a $2.4 million decrease, $4.5 million increase and $0.1 million increase to stockholders’ equity, respectively. It should be noted that the $1.9 million decrease in retained earnings as of January 28, 2007 for the change between the originally filed third quarter financial statements for the period ended January 28, 2007 and this restated third quarter only reflects the impact of the Second Restatement, as the originally filed third quarter financial statements included the impact of the First Restatement. The cumulative impact of the First Restatement was a $3.4 million increase to retained earnings as of January 28, 2007 thus the total cumulative effect of the First and Second Restatements combined was a $1.5 million increase in retained earnings as of January 28, 2007.

For the three months ended January 22, 2006 and January 28, 2007, these adjustments decreased net income by $23 thousand and increased net income by $0.6 million, respectively. For the nine months ended January 22, 2006 and January 28, 2007, these adjustments decreased net income by $1.5 million and increased net income by $2.5 million, respectively.

The restatement adjustments primarily relate to the following items (the cumulative effect of each adjustment item is presented for the periods through April 30, 2006, October 29, 2006 and January 28, 2007):

 

   

Accounting for the lease of the Company’s new casino space in Coventry, England in accordance with Emerging Issue Task Force (“EITF”) 97-10, “The Effect of Lessee Involvement in Asset Construction” (“EITF 97-10”), which cumulatively decreased retained earnings by $2.4 million, $2.4 million and zero, respectively;

 

   

Accounting for leases with rent escalation and rent holiday clauses on a straight-line basis at several properties, which resulted in a decrease to retained earnings of $2.5 million, $2.2 million and $2.2 million, respectively;

 

   

Correction of accounting errors at the Company’s 66-2/3% owned Blue Chip Casinos plc subsidiary in England which cumulatively reduced retained earnings by $1.7 million, $2.3 million and zero, respectively;

 

   

Adjustments to the calculation of the gain on the sale of the Isle-Bossier City related to the proper allocation of certain intangible assets, which cumulatively increased retained earnings by zero, $6.1 million and zero, respectively;

 

   

Amortization of certain intangible assets (primarily related to Lady Luck customer lists, Biloxi berthing rights and the Waterloo gaming license) which cumulatively reduced retained earnings by $5.4 million, $5.7 million and zero, respectively;


Table of Contents
   

Correction of various tax accounting issues which cumulatively increased retained earnings by $8.2 million, $8.9 million and $0.3 million, respectively; and increased additional paid in capital by $3.0 million, $3.0 million and $2.0 million, respectively.

Additionally, as part of the restatement process, the Company has made correcting adjustments for other miscellaneous items. Refer to Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for a detailed discussion of all significant restatement adjustments.

This Form 10-Q/A amends the following:

 

   

Part I. Item 1 (Financial Statements and Supplementary Data) to reflect changes to the Company’s financial statements and notes thereto, including changes to the Consolidated Balance Sheets, Consolidated Statements of Income, Consolidated Statements of Stockholders’ Equity, Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, the addition of Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements “Restatement”, as well as other Notes which present restated financial information.

 

   

Part I. Item 2 (Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations) to reflect the changes to Executive Overview, Results of Operations, Liquidity and Capital Resources, and Contractual Obligations and Commercial Commitments.

 

   

Part I. Item 4 (Controls and Procedures) to reflect changes to the disclosure of the internal control impact.

 

   

Part II. Item 3 (Defaults on Senior Securities)

No other changes have been made to the Company’s quarterly report except those items previously listed and this amendment is not intended to update other information presented in the quarterly report as originally filed, except as disclosed in Note 13 to the financial statements, Subsequent Events. As a result of this amendment, the certifications pursuant to Section 302 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, filed as exhibits to the Original Filing, have been re-executed and re-filed as of the date of this Form 10-Q/A and the certification pursuant to Section 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 has been executed and filed as of the date of this Form 10-Q/A. Included in this Form 10-Q/A is quarterly information within Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements which amends previously filed Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q.

The Company has not amended its Annual Reports on Form 10-K for the fiscal years ended April 30, 2006, April 24, 2005 and April 25, 2004 or the Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the periods affected by the restatement. The information that has been previously filed or otherwise reported for the periods prior to October 29, 2006 is superseded by the information in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A and the financial statements and related financial information contained in such reports should no longer be relied upon.

Furthermore, all notes to the consolidated financial statements should be read in their entirety when reading these financial statements because they materially impact the ability to understand the historical financial information presented regarding the Company.

1. Background and Nature of Operations

Isle of Capri Casinos, Inc. and its subsidiaries (together with its subsidiaries the “Company” or “Isle of Capri”) was incorporated in Delaware in February 1990. The Company is a leading developer, owner, and operator of branded gaming facilities and related lodging and entertainment facilities in markets throughout the United States and internationally. The Company wholly owns and operates nine casino gaming facilities in the United States located in Lake Charles, Louisiana; Lula, Biloxi and Natchez, Mississippi; Kansas City and Boonville, Missouri; Bettendorf, Davenport and Marquette, Iowa; and Pompano Beach, Florida. The Company also owns a 57% interest in, and receives management fees for operating, two gaming facilities in Black Hawk, Colorado. One of these facilities in Black Hawk, Colorado operates under the name “Isle of Capri” and features the Company’s distinctive tropical island theme. The Company’s international gaming interests include a wholly owned casino in Freeport, Grand Bahama, a two-thirds ownership interest in casinos in Dudley and Wolverhampton, England and a wholly owned casino to be opened in the summer of 2007 in Coventry, England. The Company also wholly owns and operates a pari-mutuel harness racing facility in Pompano Beach, Florida at the site of its Pompano Beach casino facility.

Discontinued operations relate to those of the Colorado Grande casino, located in Cripple Creek, Colorado (“Colorado Grande-Cripple Creek”), the Riverboat Gaming Corporation of Mississippi-Vicksburg (“Isle-Vicksburg”) located in Vicksburg, Mississippi and the Louisiana Riverboat Gaming Partnership (“Isle-Bossier City”) located in Bossier City, Louisiana. The sale of Colorado Grande – Cripple Creek was closed on April 25, 2005. On July 31, 2006, the Company closed the sale of Isle-Bossier City and Isle-Vicksburg. The financial position and results of the discontinued operations are presented as assets held for sale in the consolidated balance sheets and discontinued operations in the consolidated statements of operations, respectively, for all periods presented in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144 (“SFAS No. 144”), “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.” For further discussion see Note 4.

On June 1, 2006, the Company notified its landlord of its decision to terminate its lease at Isle-Our Lucaya in Freeport, Grand Bahama. In the first fiscal quarter, the Company recorded approximately $2.2 million in lease termination costs in accordance with FASB Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 146 (“SFAS No. 146”), “Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities.” This charge, included in marketing and administrative expenses, relates to the Company’s planned closure of the Isle-Our Lucaya operation by June 2007. Recently, the Company has entered into discussions with the Bahamian government that may result in the Company continuing its operations at the Isle-Our Lucaya. See further discussion in Note 13.

On May 11, 2005, the Company announced that the Iowa Racing and Gaming Commission awarded it a gaming license in Waterloo, Iowa. Construction is underway on a 35,000 square foot single level casino with 1,300 gaming positions, three restaurants, a 200-room hotel and 1,000 parking spaces. The project scope has recently been expanded and will also include a nightclub, a full service spa and a resort pool. The Company expects the property to open in July 2007 at a total cost of approximately $175 million.

On January 4, 2006, a Florida statute became effective allowing Pompano Park and three other pari-mutuel facilities in Broward County to offer slot machine gaming to patrons at these facilities. Although there are pari-mutuel facilities in numerous other counties in the State of Florida, slot machine gaming is only authorized in Broward County where Pompano Park is located.

On April 14, 2007, the Company opened a gaming facility consisting of 1,500 slot machines, four restaurants and a feature bar at Pompano Park adjacent to the existing grandstand, which cost approximately $176 million to construct. The statute also requires Pompano Park to pay an annual license fee of $3 million and gaming taxes equal to 50% of Pompano Park’s net slot machine revenue plus combined county and city taxes approximating an additional 3.5% on the first $250 million of net slot machine revenue and 5% on net slot machine revenue over $250 million.

1. Background and Nature of Operations (continued)

Litigation is presently ongoing, which if ultimately determined adversely could invalidate the statewide vote amending the Florida constitution to permit slot machines at pari-mutuels could eliminate the Company’s right to operate slot machines at Pompano Park. The Company can provide no assurance as to the outcome of this litigation.

On August 18, 2006, the Harrison County Planning Commission approved the Company’s master plan for its previously announced 50-acre development in west Harrison County, Mississippi, which is approximately 20 miles from the Mississippi/Louisiana state border near Interstate 10. Preliminary plans call for the estimated $320 million project to include a single-level gaming facility with over 2,000 gaming positions, a hotel, restaurants and a complement of additional resort amenities. The project remains in the preliminary planning stages, and is subject to certain conditions, including but not limited to the receipt of all necessary licenses, approvals and permits.

Interim Financial Information

The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q/A and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and nine months ended January 28, 2007 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ended April 29, 2007.

Fiscal Year-End

The Company’s fiscal year ends on the last Sunday in April. This fiscal year creates more comparability of the Company’s quarterly operations, by generally having an equal number of weeks (13) and weekend days (26) in each fiscal quarter. Periodically, this system necessitates a 53-week year, as occurred in the fiscal year ended April 30, 2006. Fiscal 2007 is a 52 week year which commenced on May 1, 2006 and ends on April 29, 2007.

Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The financial position and results of operations of Isle-Vicksburg, Isle-Bossier City and Colorado Grande-Cripple Creek are presented as assets held for sale in the consolidated balance sheet as of April 30, 2006 and as discontinued operations in the consolidated statements of operations for all periods presented in accordance with SFAS No. 144.

In April 2006, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a plan to close the Isle-Our Lucaya facility in Freeport, Grand Bahama. Effective June 1, 2006, the Company notified its landlord of its decision to terminate the lease and the Company intended to cease operations by June 1, 2007 as required by its lease. The Company will continue to report the results of the Isle-Our Lucaya property as continuing operations until a probable sale of this facility is reached or operations are ceased, at which time, these results will be

reported as discontinued operations in accordance with SFAS No. 144. The Company has recently entered into discussions with the Bahamian government that may result in the Company continuing its operations at the Isle-Our Lucaya. See further discussion in Note 13.

New Pronouncements

In July 2006, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 48 (“FIN 48”), “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes—an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109,” which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in tax positions. FIN 48 requires that a company recognize the impact of a tax position in its financial statements if that position is more likely than not to be sustained on audit, based on the technical merits of the position. The provisions of FIN 48 become effective in the first quarter of fiscal 2008, with the cumulative effect of the change in accounting principle recorded as an adjustment to opening retained earnings. The Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any, of adopting FIN 48 on its financial statements, and such impact cannot be reasonably estimated at this time.

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS No. 157”), to define fair value and establish a framework for measuring fair value in GAAP and to expand disclosures about fair value measurements. This Statement applies to other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements. Prior to this Statement, there were different definitions of fair value and limited guidance for applying those definitions in GAAP. A single definition of fair value, together with a framework for measuring fair value, should result in increased consistency and comparability in fair value measurements. The expanded disclosures about the use of fair value to measure assets and liabilities should provide users of financial statements with better information about the extent to which fair value is used to measure recognized assets and liabilities, the inputs used to develop the measurements and the effect of certain measurements on earnings (or changes in net assets) for the period. SFAS No. 157 becomes effective in the first quarter of fiscal 2008. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any, of adopting SFAS No. 157 on its financial statements, and such impact cannot be reasonably estimated at this time.

2. Restatement

During the course of the Company’s third quarter review of fiscal 2007, management and the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm identified issues that, when corrected, had a material effect upon the Company’s previously issued financial statements. Therefore, the Company announced it would restate its financial statements for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2006 and prior years, the quarterly results for fiscal 2006, and the first two quarters of fiscal 2007.

On April 18, 2007, the Company filed quarterly results for the three and nine months ended January 28, 2007 (“First Restatement”). That interim filing, which was not reviewed by the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, contained all of the restatement items that the Company was aware of at the time of filing of the document. However, the Company subsequently discovered additional errors which required restatement. As a result, the Company announced on June 19, 2007, that it would restate its financial statements for the third quarter ended January 28, 2007, and further restate prior periods (“Second Restatement”).

The financial statements presented herein reflect all restatement items, including those items which were presented in the Company’s quarterly filing for the three and nine months ended January 28, 2007, filed on April 18, 2007, and the additional restatement findings identified subsequent to the filing of that document as noted above. As such, in the restatement discussion below, the Company presents the cumulative effect of all restatement items compared to the originally filed financial statements for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2006, the originally filed six month period ended October 29, 2006 and the originally filed three month period ended January 28, 2007. Additionally, the Company presents the effect of all restatement items on net income, as originally filed, for the three and nine month periods ended January 22, 2006 and January 28, 2007.

2. Restatement (continued)

The cumulative effect of all adjustments through April 30, 2006, October 29, 2006 and January 28, 2007 was a $5.4 million decrease, $0.9 million increase and $1.9 million decrease to retained earnings, respectively; a $3.0 million increase, $3.6 million increase and $2.0 million increase to additional paid-in capital, respectively; and a $2.4 million decrease, $4.5 million increase and $0.1 million increase to stockholders’ equity, respectively. It should be noted that the $1.9 million decrease in retained earnings as of January 28, 2007 for the change between the originally filed third quarter ended January 28, 2007 and this restated report for the third quarter only reflects the impact of the Second Restatement, as the originally filed third quarter report included the impact of the First Restatement. The cumulative impact of the First Restatement was a $3.4 million increase to retained earnings as of January 28, 2007 thus the total cumulative effect of the First and Second Restatements combined was a $1.5 million increase in retained earnings as of January 28, 2007.

For the three months ended January 22, 2006 and January 28, 2007, these adjustments decreased net income and earnings per common share by $23 thousand and $0.00 and increased net income and earnings per common share by $0.6 million and $0.02, respectively. For the nine months ended January 22, 2006 and January 28, 2007, these adjustments decreased net income and earnings per common share by $1.5 million and $0.05 and increased net income and earnings per common share by $2.5 million and $0.08, respectively.

For the nine months ended January 22, 2006 and January 28, 2007 cash from operating activities increased $1.5 million and decreased $0.3 million, respectively. Cash from investing activities for the nine months ended January 22, 2006 and January 28, 2007 decreased $1.2 million and $0.3 million, respectively. Additionally, cash from financing activities for the nine months ended January 22, 2006 and January 28, 2007 increased $0.0 million and $0.8 million, respectively. Overall, cash and cash equivalents increased $0.3 million and $0.1 million for the nine months ended January 22, 2006 and January 28, 2007, respectively.

Background

Accounting for Leases

Coventry

The Company entered into an agreement during fiscal 2004 to lease space for the Isle-Coventry casino in Coventry, England (which was still under construction at the end of fiscal year 2006 and is expected to open in fiscal year 2008) in the sub-level of the Coventry Convention Center. The Coventry Convention Center was developed, owned and operated by a non-affiliated entity and began operations in August 2005. The Company determined that due to certain structural elements installed by the Company during the construction of the space being leased and certain prepaid lease payments made by the Company, the Company is required to be treated, for accounting purposes only, as the “owner” of the Coventry Convention Center, in accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force 97-10, “The Effect of Lessee Involvement in Asset Construction” (“EITF 97-10”).

As a result, the Company has recorded a cumulative adjustment to property and equipment, net of accumulated depreciation and after considering the effects of translation, of $50.3 million, $51.5 million and $52.7 million as of April 30, 2006, October 29, 2006 and January 28, 2007, respectively. Additionally, the Company has cumulatively recorded a long-term obligation for $42.4 million, $44.8 million and $46.5 million as of April 30, 2006, October 29, 2006 and, January 28, 2007, respectively. However, the Company does not own these assets, is not the obligor on the corresponding long-term obligation and does not participate in or control the operations of the convention center. The Coventry Convention Center was placed in service by the non-affiliated

entity during the Company’s fiscal year 2006, and as a result, the Company has recorded depreciation expense which has cumulatively decreased retained earnings by $1.4 million, $2.3 million and $2.8 million through April 30, 2006, October 29, 2006 and January 28, 2007, respectively.

The Company has also recorded interest expense on the other long-term obligation which has cumulatively decreased retained earnings by $1.4 million, $2.3 million and $2.7 million through April 30, 2006, October 29, 2006 and January 28, 2007, respectively.

Additionally, the Company has also reversed previously recorded interest income which has cumulatively increased retained earnings by $1.2 million, $1.6 million and $1.8 million through April 30, 2006, October 29, 2006 and January 28, 2007, respectively. The previously recorded interest income was being earned on prepaid rent as contractually agreed to with the lender.

The cumulative effect of these restatement items reduced retained earnings by $2.4 million as of April 30, 2006 and October 29, 2006 and has no effect as of January 28, 2007. For the three and nine months ended January 22, 2006, these adjustments decreased net income by $0.7 million and $1.4 million, respectively. The adjustments had no effect on net income for the three and nine months ended January 28, 2007.

The related asset and financing obligation will be reflected on the Company’s accompanying consolidated balance sheet until completion of the lease term, when they will be removed from the Company’s financial statements. At such time, the net of the remaining obligation and carrying value of the asset will be recognized as a gain on disposal of the facility. Future payments due under the financing obligation utilizing the exchange rate as of April 30, 2006 were $0.6 million in 2007, $1.0 million in 2008, $1.1 million in 2009, $1.1 million in 2010, $1.1 million in 2011 and $35.2 million thereafter.

Other Lease Issues:

The Company identified prior period errors related to the lease accounting at its Biloxi, Kansas City, Lake Charles, Our Lucaya and Colorado properties. The Company previously failed to account for these leases, which contain rent escalation and rent holiday clauses on a straight-line basis. The effect of these adjustments on retained earnings was a cumulative reduction of $2.5 million, $2.2 million and $2.2 million as of April 30, 2006, October 29, 2006 and January 28, 2007, respectively. For the three and nine months ended January 22, 2006, these adjustments had no effect on net income. For the three and nine months ended January 28, 2007, these adjustments had no effect on net income and increased net income by $0.3 million, respectively.

United Kingdom Accounting

During the third fiscal quarter ended January 28, 2007, the statutory audits of the financial statements of Blue Chip Casinos, plc (“Blue Chip”) for the fiscal years ended April 24, 2005 and April 30, 2006 were completed. Blue Chip Casinos plc is a 66-2/3% owned subsidiary of the Company, which operates pub-style casinos in the United Kingdom (UK). In accordance with the original agreement governing Blue Chip’s operations, Blue Chip was managed by the Company’s UK-based minority shareholders during the impacted periods. The Company assumed management responsibilities of Blue Chip during fiscal 2007. These adjustments related primarily to the identification and recording of fixed assets which were not properly recorded and the associated depreciation related to those assets, as well as corrections for previously un-reconciled expense and balance sheet accounts related primarily to payroll liabilities, professional service accruals, interest accruals and other operating expenses. The completion of these audits resulted in adjustments that reduced retained earnings cumulatively by approximately $1.7 million and $2.3

million as of April 30, 2006 and October 29, 2006, respectively and no effect as of January 28, 2007. For the three and nine months ended January 22, 2006, these adjustments decreased net income by $0.1 million and $0.2 million, respectively. The adjustments had no effect on net income for the three and nine months ended January 28, 2007.

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

Isle-Bossier City and Isle-Lake Charles Other Intangible Assets Reclassification

An error occurred in the allocation of intangible assets related primarily to gaming licensing costs at two of the Company’s Louisiana properties. Specifically, in fiscal 2001, net intangible assets of $10.4 million related to one of the Company’s Lake Charles riverboat licenses were recorded to the Company’s Bossier City property in error. The Lake Charles property was partially owned by the Bossier City property at the time. The effect of this adjustment increased other intangible assets and decreased assets held for sale by $10.4 million as of April 30, 2006.

The error also caused an understatement of the gain on sale recorded by the Company in the second quarter ended October 29, 2006. The effect of the adjustment to correct the understatement of the gain of $10.4 million has resulted in an increase in retained earnings of $6.1 million as of October 29, 2006 and no effect to retained earnings as of January 28, 2007. There was no effect on net income as a result of this item for the three and nine months ended January 22, 2006 and January 28, 2007.

Lady Luck Customer Lists

When the Company acquired Lady Luck Gaming Corporation in March 2000, it capitalized Lady Luck’s customer lists as an intangible asset. This asset should have been amortized over a useful life of three years. In addition, amortization was incorrectly discontinued when the Company implemented SFAS 142 at the beginning of fiscal 2002. The Company has determined that the remaining balance of $4.0 million should have been fully amortized over a three-year useful life, and therefore adjustments have been made to fully amortize this asset by fiscal year ended April 27, 2003. The cumulative effect of these adjustments reduced retained earnings $2.6 million as of April 30, 2006 and October 29, 2006. There was no effect on retained earnings as of January 28, 2007. Additionally, the Company has reclassified a net amount of $1.3 million from other intangibles to goodwill, which had been improperly classified since the date of the acquisition. There was no effect on retained earnings for this reclassification. There was no effect on net income as a result of these two items for the three and nine months ended January 22, 2006 and January 28, 2007.

Biloxi Berthing Rights

The Company recorded payments made for berthing rights related to Isle-Biloxi pursuant to a 1992 agreement and was amortizing the asset over a twenty-year period prior to the adoption of SFAS 142. The Company should have been amortizing this asset over a ten-year period based on the terms of the agreement. During the adoption of SFAS 142, the Company incorrectly reclassified the unamortized balance of these berthing rights to goodwill and ceased amortization. The Company has determined that the remaining balance of $3.5 million should have been fully amortized by the fiscal year ended April 28, 2002. The cumulative effect of this adjustment reduced retained earnings $2.2 million as of April 30, 2006 and October 29, 2006. There was no effect on retained earnings as of January 28, 2007. There was no effect on net income as a result of this item for the three and nine months ended January 22, 2006 and January 28, 2007.

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets (continued)

Waterloo License Adjustment

In connection with the acquisition of its gaming license for the privilege to operate a casino in Waterloo, Iowa, the Company incurred an obligation to pay various Iowa state entities approximately $21.1 million in gaming license costs ratably over a five-year period beginning in fiscal 2006. The Company had not originally considered the present value impact on the asset and the corresponding asset and liability. As part of its restatement, the Company has recorded a $2.6 million reduction to the liability and the asset to record the present value of the payments for the gaming license.

The cumulative effect of this adjustment reduced retained earnings $0.6 million and $0.9 million as of April 30, 2006 and October 29, 2006; and no effect on retained earnings as of January 28, 2007. For the three and nine months ended January 22, 2006, these adjustments decreased net income by $0.2 million and $0.5 million, respectively. The adjustments had no effect on net income for the three and nine months ended January 28, 2007.

Accounting for Taxes:

The Company identified the following prior period errors related to tax accounting:

United Kingdom and Bahamas – The Company had not properly accounted for the tax treatment of various start-up, license and expansion costs incurred during the fiscal years 2004 through 2006 related to new business opportunities in the United Kingdom and the Bahamas. The correction resulted in a cumulative increase in retained earnings of $2.0 million, $2.0 million and $0.1 million as of April 30, 2006, October 29, 2006 and January 28, 2007, respectively. This adjustment had no effect on net income for the three and nine months ended January 22, 2006 and January 28, 2007

Iowa – During fiscal year 2007, the Company filed a protest with the State of Iowa regarding the proper membership of its Iowa consolidated group on tax returns filed for the tax years 2000 through 2006. In evaluating its position, the Company determined that the amount of reserve it had previously recorded for the potential liability was inaccurately computed. The correction of the calculation resulted in a cumulative decrease to retained earnings of $2.0 million as of April 30, 2006 and October 29, 2006 and an increase to retained earnings of $0.5 million as of January 28, 2007. This adjustment had no effect on net income for the three and nine months ended January 22, 2006 and January 28, 2007.

Louisiana Franchise Tax – The State of Louisiana has asserted that the Company has nexus in the state for franchise tax purposes. The Company’s contingent tax reserve calculation included errors and thus did not reflect the correct estimate of the contingent liability in accordance with SFAS 5 “Accounting for Contingencies.” The correction of our contingent tax reserve resulted in a cumulative decrease to retained earnings of $2.1 million, $2.6 million and $2.3 million as of April 30, 2006, October 29, 2006 and January 28, 2007, respectively. For the three months and nine months ended January 22, 2006 this adjustment decreased net income by $0.2 million and $0.6 million, respectively. The adjustments increased net income by $0.3 million and decreased net income by $0.2 million for the three and nine months ended January 28, 2007, respectively.

Tax Consequences of Equity Compensation – The Company had not been properly recording the tax effect of differences between book expense and tax deductions to stockholders’ equity. Correcting the tax effects of equity compensation resulted in a cumulative increase in additional paid in capital of $3.0 million, $3.0 million and $2.0 million as of April 30, 2006, October 29, 2006 and January 28, 2007, respectively. There was no effect on net income as a result of these items for the three and nine months ended January 22, 2006 and January 28, 2007.

2. Restatement (continued)

Accounting for Taxes (continued):

Deferred Tax Assets and Liabilities – The Company’s deferred tax balances did not reflect certain temporary differences, including those related to state income and franchise tax deductions, federal tax credits and valuation allowances against net operating losses. Establishment of these deferred tax balances resulted in a cumulative increase in retained earnings of $4.0 million, $4.0 million and $2.7 million as of April 30, 2006, October 29, 2006 and January 28, 2007, respectively. There was no effect on net income as a result of these items for the three and nine months ended January 22, 2006 and January 28, 2007.

State Deferred Tax Assets and Liabilities—The Company identified that the methodology used to calculate deferred tax assets and liabilities did not accurately reflect the state rates expected to apply when the deferred tax assets and liabilities are realized or settled. Adjustments to the expected future tax rates resulted in a cumulative increase in retained earnings of $2.8 million as of April 30, 2006 and October 29, 2006 and a decrease in retained earnings of $0.1 million as of January 28, 2007. There was no effect on net income as a result of these items for the three and nine months ended January 22, 2006 and January 28, 2007.

Involuntary Conversion of Fixed Assets that Resulted from Hurricane Katrina – During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2006, the Company incorrectly recorded deferred income tax expense related to write-offs of fixed assets that resulted from hurricane damage to its Biloxi facilities. Reversal of the income tax expense resulted in a cumulative increase in retained earnings of $1.8 million as of April 30, 2006 and October 29, 2006 and did not impact retained earnings as of January 28, 2007. There was no effect on net income as a result of this item for the three and nine months ended January 22, 2006 and January 28, 2007.

Minority Interest – The Company determined that it improperly accounted for the portion of income tax expense related to minority interests in its Colorado gaming operations for fiscal years 2003 through 2006. Adjustments to properly reflect the minority interests in income tax expense resulted in a cumulative increase in retained earnings of $1.8 million as of April 30, 2006 and October 29, 2006 and did not impact retained earnings as of January 28, 2007. This adjustment had no effect on net income for the three and nine months ended January 22, 2006 and January 28, 2007.

Lake Charles and Kansas City Acquisitions – The Company identified several adjustments needed to the original purchase accounting and subsequent activity to properly reflect the tax position of its Lake Charles property (acquired May 1995) and its Kansas City property (acquired June 2000). The impact of these adjustments and subsequent activity resulted in a cumulative increase in retained earnings of $1.1 million as of April 30, 2006 and October 29, 2006 and cumulative decrease of $0.1 million as of January 28, 2007. There was no effect on net income as a result of these items for the three and nine months ended January 22, 2006 and January 28, 2007.

Miscellaneous Adjustments to Income Tax Payable and Deferred Tax Accounts –The Company recorded miscellaneous adjustments to true-up its income tax payable and deferred tax accounts as of the end of fiscal 2006. The impact of these adjustments resulted in a cumulative decrease in retained earnings of $1.2 million as of April 30, 2006 and October 29, 2006 and a cumulative decrease of $1.8 million as of January 28, 2007. There was no effect on net income as a result of these items for the three and nine months ended January 22, 2006 and January 28, 2007.

2. Restatement (continued)

Accounting for Taxes (continued):

All other tax adjustments, including those related to allocating taxes among quarters, resulted in a cumulative increase in retained earnings of $1.2 million and $1.3 million, respectively, as of October 29, 2006 and January 28, 2007; increased net income by $2.3 million and $3.2 million, respectively, for the three and nine months ended January 22, 2006 and increased net income by $0.1 million and $1.3 million, respectively, for the three and nine months ended January 28, 2007.

Hurricane Impairment

In the second fiscal quarter ended October 29, 2006, the Company identified an additional $7.4 million in fixed assets at Isle-Biloxi that were impaired as a result of damages from Hurricane Katrina in the second fiscal quarter ended October 23, 2005. Since these assets were not written down in the proper period, they continued to be depreciated until their later identification. As part of this restatement, the Company has recorded the impairment charge with an offset to the insurance receivable and reversed the related depreciation expense in the fiscal year ended April 30, 2006. The effect of these cumulative adjustments increased retained earnings $0.1 million and $0.2 million as of April 30, 2006 and October 29, 2006 and had no effect on retained earnings as of January 28, 2007, respectively. For the three and nine months ended January 22, 2006, these adjustments had no effect on net income and increased net income by $0.1 million, respectively. The adjustments had no effect on net income for the three and nine months ended January 28, 2007.

Other Adjustments

As part of the restatement process, the Company has made correcting adjustments for the following items:

 

   

Progressive Slot Liability Seed – In fiscal 2006, the Company determined that it had incorrectly recorded $1.1 million of expense over the lifetime of it operations, which related to the initial funding for progressive slot machine jackpots. The cumulative amount of this expense was reversed in the year ended April 30, 2006. As a result of the restatement, the financial statements have also been adjusted to reflect the recognition of this expense in the appropriate pre-fiscal 2006 periods. As of April 30, 2006, October 29, 2006, and January 28, 2007, there was no net effect on retained earnings related to this adjustment. There was no effect on net income as a result of these items for the three and nine month ended January 22, 2006 and January 28, 2007.

 

   

Exit Liability—In February 1995, the Company executed a lease for certain blocks of land in Cripple Creek Colorado for the purpose of developing a gaming facility. The lease term is twenty-five (25) years commencing February 9, 1995 and expiring February 8, 2020, subject to the right of the Company to extend the term of the lease for seven (7) consecutive ten (10) year extensions. There exists an option to purchase the property lease, in favor of the Company. The Company accounted for the lease as an operating lease at the inception of the lease.

In 1999, the current and long-term lease exit liabilities were established when it was determined that the Company did not plan to construct or open a casino in Cripple Creek in accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) Issue No. 94-3 (“EITF 94-3”), “Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring)”, with a valuation charge (“restructuring charge”). The total amount of the exit liability that was established at that date was $2.5 million and the amount of the restructuring charge was $2.5 million. The disclosure for this exit liability was presented in the “Commitments” Note to the financial statements as a capital lease obligation, as well as, in the “Long-Term Debt” Note as other long-term debt and not disclosed as an exit activity. The original restructuring charge in the Consolidated Statements of

3. Stock-Based Compensation

Effective May 1, 2006, the Company adopted the FASB Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (revised 2004) (“SFAS 123(R)”), “Share-Based Payment,” using the modified prospective method, thus, results for the periods prior to May 1, 2006 have not been restated in relation to the application of SFAS 123(R).

As a result of adopting SFAS 123(R), the Company recognized $1.5 million and $5.6 million for stock option expense for the three and nine months ended January 28, 2007, respectively, which is included in marketing and administrative expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations for the respective periods. The total income tax benefit recognized was approximately $0.3 million and $1.3 million for the three and nine months ended January 28, 2007, respectively. The incremental expense, net of income tax benefit, for stock options decreased diluted earnings per share by $0.04 and $0.14 for the three and nine months ended January 28, 2007, respectively. As of January 28, 2007, there was $9.9 million in unrecognized stock compensation costs, related to unvested options, which the Company will expense over the remaining vesting period, approximately 5 years with a weighted average period of 3.5 years.

For periods prior to May 1, 2006, the Company applied the recognition and measurement principles of Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion 25 and related interpretations in accounting for the Company’s three stock-based employee compensation plans. No stock-based employee compensation expense was reflected in net income related to stock option grants as all options granted under those plans had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. The Company recognized a tax benefit from the exercise of certain stock options.

3. Stock-Based Compensation (continued)

The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing model with the range of assumptions disclosed in the following table for the periods presented. Expected volatility is calculated using historical volatility of the Company’s stock prices over a range of dates equal to the expected term of a grant’s options. The expected term is calculated using historical data that is representative of the option for which the fair value is to be determined. The expected term represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. The risk-free rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of the grant for the approximate period of time equivalent to the grant’s expected term.

During the third quarter ended January 29, 2007, the Company recorded an additional receivable of $2.8 million as the result of the receipt of a proof of loss for business interruption-loss of income related to Hurricane Rita at the Isle-Lake Charles and Hurricane Wilma in Pompano Park, which are reflected as other revenue in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations. No cash had been received on this proof of loss as of January 28, 2007; however, the funds were collected subsequent to the end of the quarter. The Company continues to negotiate with its insurers to settle the claim. The timeline for final settlement of the claim is expected to be within one year.

During fiscal year 2006, the Company recognized asset impairments and losses of $68.6 million based on assessments of damage at all its locations. During fiscal 2007, the Company identified an additional $7.6 million of impairment based on further assessments. As part of the restatement, $7.4 million has been restated to be included in the balance as of October 23, 2005. The Company has also incurred out-of-pocket costs directly related to the hurricanes and the property operating costs related to the period of closure caused by the hurricanes, of $62.2 million during fiscal year 2006. The Company has incurred an additional $18.6 million in fiscal year 2007, of which $3.3 million was recorded during the third fiscal quarter. The total amount of losses recognized and expenses incurred of $159.9 million has been recorded as “Hurricane related charges, net” and has been offset by $155.1 million, which the Company believes is probable that it will collect from its insurance carriers under its policy coverage. The remaining amount of $4.8 million represents the Company’s deductible portion of its claims, which was recorded during fiscal year 2006. As discussed, the Company has been receiving advances against its insurance claims from the applicable insurance carriers and believes it may ultimately collect more than the $155.1 million of gross receivable, related to property impairment and incremental costs incurred, recorded in the financial statements due to its replacement value coverage for its property damage and the lost profits component of its coverage. The Company will recognize any amounts in excess of the recorded loss as gains when it and the insurance carriers agree to the final amounts to be paid to the Company for the losses sustained.

7% Senior Subordinated Notes

On March 3, 2004, the Company issued $500.0 million of 7% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2014 (“7% Senior Subordinated Notes”). The 7% Senior Subordinated Notes are guaranteed by all of the Company’s significant domestic subsidiaries, excluding the subsidiaries that own and operate the Isle-Black Hawk and the Colorado Central Station-Black Hawk, and other subsidiaries as described more fully in Note 12. The 7% Senior Subordinated Notes are general unsecured obligations and rank junior to all existing and future senior indebtedness, equally with all existing and future senior subordinated debt, including the $200 million in aggregate principal amount of the existing 9% Senior Subordinated Notes, and senior to any future subordinated indebtedness. Interest on the 7% Senior Subordinated Notes is payable semi-annually on each March 1 and September 1 through maturity. The 7% Senior Subordinated Notes are redeemable, in whole or in part, at the Company’s option at any time on or after March 1, 2009, at the redemption prices (expressed as percentages of principal amount) set forth below plus accrued and unpaid interest to the applicable redemption date, if redeemed during the 12-month period beginning on March 1 of the years indicated below:

2012 and thereafter

   100.000 %

Additionally, the Company may redeem a portion of the 7% Senior Subordinated Notes with the proceeds of specified equity offerings.

The Company issued the 7% Senior Subordinated Notes under an indenture between the Company, the subsidiary guarantors and a trustee. The indenture, among other things, limits the ability of the Company and its restricted subsidiaries to borrow money, make restricted payments, use assets as security in other transactions, enter into transactions with affiliates or pay dividends on or repurchase its stock or its restricted subsidiaries’ stock. The Company is also limited in its ability to issue and sell capital stock of its subsidiaries and in its ability to sell assets in excess of specified amounts or merge with or into other companies.

The Company’s failure to timely file its original fiscal 2007 third quarter Form 10-Q resulted in a default under the terms of the indenture. The Company provided notice of the default to the trustee as required by the indenture. Upon filing the Form 10-Q on April 18, 2007, the default was remedied.

9% Senior Subordinated Notes

On March 27, 2002, the Company issued $200.0 million of 9% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2012 (“9% Senior Subordinated Notes”). The 9% Senior Subordinated Notes are guaranteed by all of the Company’s significant domestic subsidiaries, excluding the subsidiaries that own and operate the Isle-Black Hawk and Colorado Central Station-Black Hawk, and other subsidiaries as described more fully in Note 12. The 9% Senior Subordinated Notes are general unsecured obligations and rank junior to all existing and future senior indebtedness, equally with all existing and future senior subordinated debt, including the $500.0 million in aggregate principal amount of the existing 7% Senior Subordinated Notes and senior to any future subordinated indebtedness. Interest on the 9% Senior Subordinated Notes is payable semi-annually on each March 15 and September 15 through maturity.

Senior Secured Credit Facility

On February 4, 2005, the Company entered into an amended senior secured credit facility, which provides for a $400.0 million revolving credit facility maturing on February 4, 2010 and a $250.0 million term loan facility maturing on February 4, 2011 (or February 6, 2012 if the Company elects to refinance its existing 9% Senior Subordinated Notes currently due in March 2012). On August 3, 2005, the Company exercised its option for a delayed draw term loan for an additional $50.0 million. The draw was accessed in anticipation of funding the Company’s ongoing development projects. At the Company and the lead arranger’s mutual discretion, the Company may increase the revolver and/or term loan, in an aggregate amount up to $200.0 million subject to certain conditions. The term loans are payable in quarterly installments beginning on March 31, 2005 and ending on February 4, 2011 unless extended as described above.

7. Long-Term Debt (continued)

The revolving credit facility may bear interest at the Company’s option (1) the higher of 0.5% in excess of the federal funds effective rate or the rate that the bank group announces from time to time as its prime lending rate plus an applicable margin of up to 1.75% or (2) a rate tied to the London Inter-Bank Offer Rate (“LIBOR”) plus an applicable margin of up to 2.75%. The term loan may bear interest at the Company’s option (1) the higher of 0.5% in excess of the federal funds effective rate or the rate that the bank group announces from time to time as its prime lending rate plus an applicable margin of up to 0.75% or (2) a rate tied to a LIBOR rate plus an applicable margin of 1.75%. The Company is required to pay an annual commitment fee of 0.5% of the unused revolving facility.

The senior secured credit facility provides for certain covenants, including those of a financial nature. The senior secured credit facility is secured by liens on substantially all of the Company’s assets and guaranteed by all of its restricted subsidiaries. There have been no material defaults, however, as a result of the Company’s delay in filing its original fiscal 2007 third quarter Form 10-Q, the Company did not meet its obligation to file certain financial reporting requirements. On March 15, 2007, the Company received a limited waiver on meeting these financial reporting requirements through June 15, 2007.

The weighted average effective interest rate of total debt outstanding under the senior secured credit facility for the three and nine months ended January 28, 2007, was 7.66% and 7.63%, respectively.

At January 28, 2007, the Company had $294.3 million outstanding under the senior secured term loan credit facility and no outstanding balance under the revolving credit facility.

Isle-Black Hawk Senior Secured Credit Facility

On October 24, 2005, Isle of Capri Black Hawk, L.L.C. (“Isle-Black Hawk”), a joint venture company that owns and operates two casinos in Black Hawk, Colorado, which is owned 57% by the Company and 43% by a subsidiary of Nevada Gold & Casinos, Inc., entered into a $240.0 million Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement which provides for a $50.0 million revolving credit facility maturing the earlier of October 24, 2010 or such date as the term loan facility is repaid in full and a $190.0 million term loan facility maturing on October 24, 2011. At Isle-Black Hawk and the lead arranger’s mutual discretion, Isle – Black Hawk, may increase the size of the revolver and/or term loan facility, in an aggregate amount up to $25.0 million subject to certain conditions. The term loans are payable in quarterly installments beginning on December 30, 2005 and ending on September 30, 2011. The revolving loans may bear interest at Isle-Black Hawk’s option at (1) the higher of 0.5% in excess of the federal funds effective rate or the rate that the lead arranger announces from time to time as its prime lending rate plus an applicable margin up to 1.25% or (2) a rate tied to a LIBOR rate plus an applicable margin up to 2.25%. The term loans may bear interest at Isle-Black Hawk’s option at (1) the higher of 0.5% in excess of the federal funds effective rate or the rate that the lead arranger announces from time to time as its prime lending rate, plus an applicable margin of 1.00% or (2) a rate tied to LIBOR plus an applicable margin of 2.00%. The Isle-Black Hawk is required to pay an annual commitment fee of 0.5% of the unused portion of the revolving facility.

Isle-Black Hawk Senior Secured Credit Facility (continued)

The credit agreement is secured by liens on substantially all of Isle-Black Hawk’s assets. The credit agreement contains customary representations and warranties and affirmative and negative covenants and is non-recourse to the Company.

Effective January 26, 2007, the Isle-Black Hawk senior secured credit facility was amended to adjust for certain financial covenants. As of January 28, 2007, Isle-Black Hawk was in compliance with all financial covenants.

The weighted average effective interest rate of total debt outstanding under the Isle-Black Hawk senior secured credit facility for the three and nine months ended at January 28, 2007, was 6.81% and 6.83%, respectively.

Interest Rate Swap Agreements

The Isle-Black Hawk has interest rate swap agreements with an aggregate notional value of $80.0 million, or 39.0% of its variable rate term debt outstanding under the Isle-Black Hawk’s senior secured credit facility as of January 28, 2007. The swap agreements effectively convert portions of Isle-Black Hawk’s variable rate debt to a fixed-rate basis until the respective swap agreements terminate, which occurs during the first and third fiscal quarters of 2008, thus reducing the impact of interest rate changes on future interest expense. The swap agreements are not designated as effective hedges. Accordingly, the Company has recognized expense totaling $0.3 million and $0.7 million for the three and nine months ended January 28, 2007, due to the change in the fair value of the swap agreements.

Isle-Black Hawk Special Assessment BID Bonds

In July 1998, the Black Hawk Business Improvement District (the “BID”), issued $2.9 million in 6% bonds due on December 1, 2009. The proceeds from the sale of the bonds were used to fund road and utility improvements in the Special Improvement District 1997-1, of which the Isle-Black Hawk is a member. The total costs of the improvements amounted to $2.2 million with the excess proceeds being returned to the bondholders by the BID. Isle-Black Hawk is responsible for 50% of this amount plus interest, which is non-recourse to the Isle of Capri Casinos, Inc. In April 2000, the Isle-Black Hawk made the first of twenty semi-annual payments of $0.1 million in the form of special property tax assessments levied on the improvement project. This amount is calculated by amortizing $1.1 million, or 50% of the net bond proceeds, over twenty periods at an interest rate of 6.25%. The difference between the bond rate of 6% and the 6.25% assessed is to cover administrative costs of the BID related to the issuance.

Blue Chip Credit Facility

Blue Chip Casinos plc (“Blue Chip”) entered into an agreement effective November 28, 2003, as amended, on May 24, 2004, with the Bank of Scotland to borrow up to £3.5 million to fund its casino development program. As of January 28, 2007, £3.4 million ($6.7 million) is outstanding. The term loan is to be repaid in quarterly payments that commenced in July 2005, and extends to July 2009. The interest rate is either, at Blue Chip’s option, the Bank of Scotland’s base rate or LIBOR plus a variable margin. As of January 28, 2007, the Bank of Scotland’s base rate was 5.25% and the variable margin was 2.00% resulting in an effective interest rate of 7.25%. This debt is non-recourse to the Company.

Blue Chip was in compliance with its covenants and terms as amended or extended from time to time as of January 28, 2007.

Isle-Bettendorf TIF Bonds

As part of the City of Bettendorf Development Agreement dated June 17, 1997, the City of Bettendorf issued $9.6 million in tax incremental financing bonds (“TIF Bonds”), which was used by the Isle-Bettendorf to construct an overpass, parking garage, related site improvements and pay for disruption damages caused by construction of the overpass. To enable financing of the City of Bettendorf’s obligations, the Isle-Bettendorf will pay incremental property taxes on the developed property assessed at a valuation of not less than $32.0 million until the TIF Bonds mature. In the event that the taxes generated by the project and other qualifying developments in the redevelopment district do not fund the repayment of the total TIF Bonds prior to their scheduled maturity, the Isle-Bettendorf will pay the City of Bettendorf $0.25 per person for each person entering the boat until the remaining balance has been repaid.

Rhythm City – Davenport General Obligation Bonds

In 2002, The Rhythm City-Davenport entered into an agreement with the City of Davenport whereby the City of Davenport has constructed a sky-bridge connecting to the Rhythm City-Davenport’s facility, allowing safer access across the street and railroad tracks. In February 2004, the City of Davenport issued $1.8 million in ten-year general obligation tax-exempt bonds at an average interest rate of 3.1% in connection with the Isle-Davenport’s portion of the cost of the sky-bridge. The Isle-Davenport is required to make annual payments of principal and interest to the City of Davenport to retire the bonds.

Lines of Credit

As of January 28, 2007, the Company has $409.6 million of capacity under its lines of credit which consisted of $381.0 million in unused credit capacity under the revolving credit facility governed by the senior secured credit facility, $28.6 million of unused credit capacity under the Isle-Black Hawk’s senior secured credit facility, (limited to use by the Isle-Black Hawk). As of April 30, 2006 capacity available under the lines of credit and available term debt was $360.9 million.

8. Other Long-Term Obligations

The Company entered into an agreement during fiscal 2004 to lease space for a new casino (which is still under construction and is expected to open in fiscal year 2008) in Coventry, England in the sub-level of the Arena Coventry Convention Center. The convention center was developed, owned and operated by a non-affiliated entity and began operations in August 2005. Due to certain structural elements installed by the Company during the construction of the space being leased and certain prepaid lease payments made by the Company, the Company is required to be treated, for accounting purposes only, as the “owner” of the Arena Coventry Convention Center, in accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 97-10 (“EITF 97-10”), “The Effect of Lessee Involvement in Asset Construction”. The Company has recorded a long-term obligation for $42.4 million and $46.5 million as of April 30, 2006 and January 28, 2007, respectively. However, the Company does not own these assets, is not the obligor on the corresponding long-term obligation and does not participate in or control the operations of the convention center.

10. Contingencies

Lady Luck Gaming Corporation (now a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company) and several joint venture partners are defendants in a lawsuit brought by the country of Greece through its Minister of Tourism (now Development) and Finance. The action alleges that the defendants failed to make specified payments in connection with the gaming license bid process for Patras, Greece. The payment the Company is alleged to have been required to make totals approximately 6.5 million Euros (which was approximately $8.3 million as of January 28, 2007 based on published exchange rates). Although it is difficult to determine the damages being sought from the lawsuit, the action may seek damages up to that aggregate amount plus interest from the date of the action. The Athens Civil Court of First Instance granted judgment in the Company’s favor and dismissed the lawsuit, but the Ministry appealed the matter and the appeal was heard before the Athens Appeal Court of First Instance. The Athens Appeal Court issued certified copies of judgments denying the Ministry’s appeal. The Ministry elected to appeal this matter further to the Supreme Court. During October 2005, the Administrative Supreme Court remanded the matter back to the Athens Administrative Appeals Court for a hearing on the merits, which is expected to take place at the end of 2006 or early 2007. The civil matter was set for hearing before the Greek Supreme Court during May 2006; however, prior to the scheduled hearing date, the Greek Supreme Court reset the hearing for January 8, 2007. The hearing was held in January and the Company is awaiting a decision by the Greek Supreme Court. The Company intends to continue a vigorous and appropriate defense to the claims asserted in this matter.

The Company is subject to certain federal, state and local environmental protection, health and safety laws, regulations and ordinances that apply to businesses generally, and is subject to cleanup requirements at certain of its facilities as a result thereof. The Company has not made, and does not anticipate making, material expenditures, nor does it anticipate incurring delays with respect to environmental remediation or protection. However, in part because the Company’s present and future development sites have, in some cases, been used as manufacturing facilities or other facilities that generate materials that are required to be remediated under environmental laws and regulations, there can be no guarantee that additional pre-existing conditions will not be discovered and that the Company will not experience material liabilities or delays.

The Company is subject to various contingencies and litigation matters and has a number of unresolved claims. Although the ultimate liability of these contingencies, this litigation and these claims cannot be determined at this time, the Company believes that they will not have a material adverse effect on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

The Company computed basic earnings per share by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares outstanding for the period. The Company reported a loss from continuing operations for the three and nine months ended January 28, 2007 and thus reported no dilutive effect upon the number of shares outstanding for the calculation of diluted earnings per share for those time periods. For the three months ended January 22, 2006, diluted earnings per share was determined as net income divided by the weighted average number of shares outstanding for the period, after applying the treasury method to determine any incremental shares associated with stock options outstanding. The Company reported a loss from continuing operations for the nine months ended January 22, 2006 and thus reported no dilutive effect upon the number of shares outstanding for the calculation of diluted earnings per share for this time period. Anti-dilutive stock options were excluded from the calculation of potential common shares for diluted earnings per share.

Any options with an exercise price in excess of the average market price of the Company’s common stock during the periods presented are not considered when calculating the dilutive effect of stock options for diluted earnings per share calculations. If the weighted average anti-dilutive shares were included for the three months ended January 22, 2006, the impact would have been a reduction of 20,954 shares.

13. Subsequent Events

Effective June 1, 2006, the Company had notified its landlord of its decision to terminate the lease and cease operations at Isle Our Lucaya. Subsequently in April 2007, the Company’s Board of Directors approved agreements with its landlord and the Government of the Bahamas, which allowed the casino to remain open. In conjunction with previously exercising the lease termination, the Company paid and expensed in the first fiscal quarter of 2007 a $2.2 million termination penalty to its landlord, however, based on the new terms of the agreement this charge will be reversed in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2007 and recorded as a prepayment of rent which will be amortized over the remaining lease term. Additionally, in connection with the decision to terminate the lease in June 2006, the Company also accrued $1.2 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2006 for severance payments based on Bahamian government regulations. These charges will also be reversed in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2007.

On March 19, 2007, the Company announced it had entered into an agreement to purchase Casino Aztar in Caruthersville, Missouri from an affiliate of Columbia Sussex Corporation. The agreement is subject to general conditions including the approval of the Missouri Gaming Commission, and satisfactory completion of due diligence by the Company. The purchase price is approximately $45 million. The Company completed this acquisition on June 10, 2007.

On April 14, 2007 the Company opened its casino operations at its existing Pompano Beach, Florida harness racing track as “the isle casino at Pompano Park”. The property features 1,500 slot machines and the Company’s signature steakhouse, Farraddays’, its signature tropical-themed buffet, Bragozzo, an Italian bistro and Myron’s, a traditional New York Style delicatessen.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Executive Overview

During the course of the Company’s third quarterly review of fiscal year 2007, management and the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm identified issues that, when corrected, had a material effect upon the Company’s previously issued financial statements.

On April 18, 2007, the Company filed quarterly results for the three and nine months ended January 28, 2007 (“First Restatement”). That interim filing, which was not reviewed by the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, contained all of the restatement items that the Company was aware of at the time of filing of the document, however the Company subsequently discovered additional errors which required restatement. As a result, the Company announced on June 19, 2007, that it would restate its third quarter ended January 28, 2007, and further restate prior periods (“Second Restatement”).

Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations presented herein reflect all restatement items, including those items which were presented in the Company’s quarterly filing for the three and nine months ended January 28, 2007 filed on April 18, 2007, and the additional restatement findings found subsequent to the filing of that document as noted above.

We are a leading developer, owner and operator of branded gaming facilities and related lodging and entertainment facilities in regional markets in the United States and internationally. We continue to investigate developing new locations, purchasing existing operations and expanding our current properties. These activities require capital-intensive investments that have long-term return potential. We have intentionally sought geographic diversity to limit the risks caused by weather, regional economic difficulties, and local gaming authorities and regulations. We currently operate casinos in Mississippi, Louisiana, Missouri, Iowa, Colorado, Florida and Freeport, Grand Bahama. We also operate a harness racing track in Florida at the same location that we operate a casino. Additionally, we have a controlling interest in casinos in Dudley and Wolverhampton, England.

The following table reflects our consolidated net revenues and operating income by state:

Note: Excludes Isle-Vicksburg, Isle-Bossier City and Colorado Grande-Cripple Creek which have been classified as discontinued operations.

Operating results for the third quarter of fiscal 2007 include some significant additional expenses, as compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2006. These include an increase of approximately $4.5 million in property insurance expense over the prior year’s third quarter, for a nine-month total increase of approximately $13.5 million over the prior year period, which was allocated across all operating properties. This increase is expected to continue throughout fiscal 2007. The Company also recorded approximately $1.5 million of stock compensation expense in the third quarter of fiscal 2007 related to the adoption of FASB Statement No. 123 (revised 2004) “Share-Based Payment” (SFAS 123(R)). These costs will also be recurring. The stock compensation expense is reflected in the Corporate and other expense line item. Pre-opening costs increased $2.5 million compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2006 primarily due to costs related to our casino developments in Pompano Beach, Florida; Waterloo, Iowa and Coventry, England.

In Mississippi, the Company’s three continuing operations contributed 24.9% of net revenues. Isle-Biloxi’s net revenues were up from the prior year period principally due to the prior year closure of the property caused by Hurricane Katrina. Operating income at the property was down due to increased competition in

Table of Contents

the market as competitors have re-opened while the Isle-Biloxi remains negatively impacted by the destruction of the Ocean Springs bridge, which is the primary thoroughfare for travelers from Florida to east Biloxi where Isle-Biloxi is located. Isle-Natchez continues to experience decreases in both net revenues and operating income primarily resulting from the re-opening of casinos on the Gulf Coast. Isle-Lula’s net revenues decreased slightly while operating income at the property increased slightly due to decreased marketing and more efficient management of expenses.

In Louisiana, Isle-Lake Charles contributed 18.9% of net revenues. Isle-Lake Charles experienced a decrease in net revenues and operating income as compared to the prior year period, primarily due to severe weather conditions and a decrease in the market due to post hurricane population shifts that benefited the prior year. During the current quarter, the Company recorded $2.2 million of income related to a business interruption insurance claim for Hurricane Rita.

In Missouri, the Company’s two properties contributed 16.9% of net revenues. Isle-Kansas City’s net revenues and operating income were down due to severe weather conditions and decreased gaming patron count, which is attributable to the completion of other expansion projects in the market and increased marketing intensity by competitors. Isle-Boonville’s net revenues and operating income increased due to the opening of the Company’s new hotel in July 2006.

In Iowa, the Company’s three casinos contributed 18.6% of net revenues. Combined, the Company’s two Quad-City properties and Isle-Marquette showed a decrease in both net revenues and operating income due to severe weather conditions and increased competition.

In Colorado, the Company’s two Black Hawk casino operations contributed 15.1% of net revenues. The Black Hawk properties experienced a decrease in net revenues and operating income as compared to the prior year period primarily due to the opening of competitors’ facilities and the impact of severe snowstorms affecting seven consecutive weekends of the quarter.

New development expenses increased compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2006 primarily due to the pursuit of gaming licenses in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and Singapore. In December 2006, the Company was notified that the respective gaming commissions did not award the Company either gaming license.

The increase in corporate expenses compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2006 is primarily due to $1.5 million in stock compensation expense as mentioned above.

Operating results from the Colorado Grande-Cripple Creek, Isle-Vicksburg and Isle-Bossier City have been classified as discontinued operations for all periods presented and thus are not included in the Operational Review discussed above.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles that require our management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts and related disclosures. Management identifies critical accounting estimates as:

 

   

those that require the use of assumptions about matters that are inherently and highly uncertain at the time the estimates are made;

 

   

those estimates where, had we chosen different estimates or assumptions, the resulting differences would have had a material impact on our financial condition, changes in financial condition or results of operations; and

 

   

those estimates that, if they were to change from period to period, likely would result in a material impact on our financial condition, changes in financial condition or results of operations.

Based upon management’s discussion of the development and selection of these critical accounting estimates with the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors, we believe the following accounting estimates involve a higher degree of judgment and complexity.

 

48


Table of Contents

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

At January 28, 2007, we had goodwill and other intangible assets with indefinite useful lives of $379.5 million, representing 20.1% of total assets. Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142 “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” (“SFAS 142”), requires that goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives be tested for impairment annually or more frequently if an event occurs or circumstances change that may reduce the fair value of our goodwill and intangible assets below their carrying value. We completed our annual impairment test as required under SFAS 142 in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2006 and determined that goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets were not impaired. For properties with goodwill and/or other intangible assets with indefinite lives, this test requires the comparison of the implied fair value of each property to carrying value. The implied fair value includes estimates of future cash flows that are based on reasonable and supportable assumptions and represent our best estimates of the cash flows expected to result from the use of the assets and their eventual disposition. Changes in estimates or application of alternative assumptions and definitions could produce significantly different results.

Property and Equipment

At January 28, 2007 we had property and equipment of $1,195.9 million, representing 63.3% of total assets, which included $50.3 million related to the Arena Coventry Convention Center as discussed below in Lease Commitments. We capitalize the cost of property and equipment. Maintenance and repairs that neither materially add to the value of the property nor appreciably prolong its life are charged to expense as incurred. Costs incurred in connection with our “all properties other capital improvements,” program, as detailed in the “Liquidity and Capital Resources” section below, include individual capital expenditures related to the purchase of furniture and equipment and to the upgrade of hotel rooms, restaurants and other areas of our properties. We depreciate property and equipment on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. The estimated useful lives are based on the nature of the assets as well as our current operating strategy. Future events such as property expansions, new competition and new regulations could result in a change in the manner in which we are using certain assets requiring a change in the estimated useful lives of such assets.

We evaluate long-lived assets for impairment using Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets” (“SFAS 144”), which addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets. In assessing the recoverability of the carrying value of property and equipment, we make assumptions regarding future undiscounted cash flows and other factors. If these estimates or the related assumptions change in the future, we may be required to record an impairment loss for these assets. Such an impairment loss would be recognized as a non-cash component of operating income.

Self-Insurance Liabilities

We are self-funded up to a maximum amount per claim for our employee-related health care benefits program, workers’ compensation insurance and general liability insurance. Claims in excess of this maximum are fully insured through a stop-loss insurance policy. We accrue for these liabilities based on claims filed and estimates of claims incurred but not reported. We rely on independent consultants to assist in the determination of estimated accruals. While the total cost of claims incurred depends on future developments, such as increases in health care costs, in our opinion, recorded reserves are adequate to cover payment of future claims.

Insurance Accounting

We have recorded an impairment charge of $76.2 million based on assessments of damages at our locations affected by Hurricanes Katrina, Wilma and Rita in fiscal year 2006. The impairment charges are offset by an insurance receivable for the amount we expect to recover from our insurance carriers. We have also incurred out-of-pocket costs directly related to the hurricanes and the property operating costs related to the period of closure caused by the hurricanes, of $80.8 million. These amounts are included in the “hurricane related charges, net” in the accompanying statements of income. We have insurance coverage related to property damage, incremental costs and property operating expenses we incur due to damage caused by the hurricanes. The “hurricane related charges, net” account also includes the total anticipated recoveries expected from our insurance carriers of $155.1 million related to the impairments recognized related to the

Table of Contents

damaged property, the incremental costs and property operating expenses that management believes are probable of collection and loss of income for which a proof of loss has been received. We have received $98.0 million in advance payments from our insurance carriers through January 28, 2007. When we and our insurance carriers agree on the final amount of the insurance proceeds we are entitled to, we will also record any related gain in this account. Our insurance policies also provide coverage for the loss of profits caused by the storms. Any lost profit recoveries will be recognized when agreed to with the insurance carrier and will be reflected in the related properties’ revenues.

Income Tax Assets and Liabilities

We account for income taxes in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes” (“SFAS 109”). SFAS 109 requires that we recognize a current tax asset or liability for the estimated taxes payable or refundable based upon application of the enacted tax rates to taxable income in the current year. Additionally, we are required to recognize a deferred tax liability or asset for the estimated future tax effects attributable to temporary differences. Temporary differences occur when differences arise between: (a) the amount of taxable income and pretax financial income for a year and (b) the tax basis of assets or liabilities and their reported amounts in financial statements. SFAS 109 also requires that any deferred tax asset recognized must be reduced by a valuation allowance for any tax benefits that, in our judgment and based upon available evidence, may not be realizable.

The deferred tax assets and liabilities, as well as the need for a valuation allowance, are evaluated on a quarterly basis and adjusted if necessary. We use forecasted future operating results and consider enacted tax laws and rates in determining if the valuation allowance is sufficient. We operate in multiple taxing jurisdictions and are therefore subject to varying tax laws and potential audits, which could impact our assessments and estimates.

Contingencies

We are involved in various legal proceedings and have identified certain loss contingencies. We record liabilities related to these contingencies when it is determined that a loss is probable and reasonably estimable. These assessments are based on our knowledge and experience as well as the advice of legal counsel regarding current and past events. Any such estimates are also subject to future events, court rulings, negotiations between the parties and other uncertainties. If an actual loss differs from our estimate, or the actual outcome of any of the legal proceedings differs from expectations, operating results could be impacted.

We routinely face challenges from federal and other tax authorities regarding the amount of taxes due. These challenges include questions regarding the timing and amount of deductions and the allocation of income among various tax jurisdictions. We record tax accruals for probable exposures associated with the various filing positions in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 5, “Accounting for Contingencies.”

Slot Club Awards

We reward our slot customers for their loyalty based on the dollar amount of play on slot machines. We accrue for these slot club awards based on an estimate of the value of the outstanding awards utilizing the age and prior history of redemptions. Future events such as a change in our marketing strategy or new competition could result in a change in the value of the awards.

Stock Based Compensation

For periods prior to May 1, 2006, we applied the recognition and measurement principles of APB 25 and related Interpretations in accounting for our three stock-based employee compensation plans. No stock-based employee compensation expense was reflected in net income related to stock option grants as all options granted under those plans had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. We recognized a tax benefit from the exercise of certain stock options.

Effective May 1, 2006, we adopted the FASB Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment” (SFAS 123(R)), using the modified prospective method, thus, results for the prior period have not been restated. The estimate of the fair value of the stock options is

calculated using the Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing model. This model requires the use of various assumptions, including the historical volatility, the risk free interest rate, estimated expected life of the grants, the estimated dividend yield and estimated rate of forfeitures. As of January 28, 2007, there was $9.9 million in unrecognized stock compensation costs that we will expense over the remaining vesting period, approximately 5.0 years with a weighted average period of 3.5 years.

Results of Operations

Our results of operations for the three-and nine months ended January 28, 2007, reflect the consolidated operations of all of our subsidiaries and include the following properties: the Isle-Lake Charles, the Isle-Biloxi, the Isle-Lula, the Isle-Natchez, the Isle-Kansas City, the Isle-Boonville, the Isle-Bettendorf, the Isle-Marquette, the Rhythm City-Davenport, the Isle-Black Hawk, the Colorado Central Station-Black Hawk, the Isle-Our Lucaya, Pompano Park, the Blue Chip-Dudley and the Blue Chip-Wolverhampton. For the three-and nine months ended January 22, 2006, results have been reclassified to reflect Isle-Vicksburg, Isle-Bossier City and Colorado Grande-Cripple Creek as discontinued operations.

We believe that our historical results of operations may not be indicative of our future results of operations because of the substantial present and expected future increase in competition for gaming customers in each of our markets, as new gaming facilities open and existing gaming facilities expand or enhance their facilities. We also believe that our operating results are materially affected by declines in the economy and adverse weather.

Three Fiscal Months Ended January 28, 2007 Compared to Three Fiscal Months Ended January 22, 2006

Gross revenues for the fiscal quarter ended January 28, 2007 were $280.5 million, which included $233.2 million of casino revenue, $10.0 million of room revenue, $5.1 million of pari-mutuel commissions, and $32.3 million of food, beverage and other revenue. This compares to gross revenues for the fiscal quarter ended January 22, 2006 of $272.8 million, which included $235.0 million of casino revenue, $6.2 million of room revenue, $4.4 million of pari-mutuel commissions and $27.3 million of food, beverage and other revenue.

Casino revenue decreased by $1.8 million, or 0.8% compared to the fiscal quarter ended January 22, 2006. We experienced a significant increase of $14.5 million in our revenues from Isle-Biloxi principally because of our prior year closure due to Hurricane Katrina. This increase in revenues was offset by smaller reductions in casino revenue at many of our other properties. Casino revenue at Isle-Natchez was down $2.5 million primarily due to the reopening of Gulf Coast casinos. Isle-Lula experienced a decrease of $1.0 million in casino revenue primarily due to a focus on fewer, but more profitable customers. Casino revenue at our two Quad City properties and Isle-Marquette was collectively down $4.7 million over the same fiscal quarter of the prior year largely due to increased competition in addition to severe winter weather. Casino revenue at our two Black Hawk casinos was down $3.7 million due to the impact of severe snowstorms affecting seven straight weekends of the quarter and the opening of competitors’ facilities. Casino revenue was also down at Isle-Lake Charles by $3.4 million over the same fiscal quarter in prior year primarily due to increased competition and severe weather in feeder markets. Isle-Lucaya was down $2.2 million primarily due to the scaling down of our operation in anticipation of our upcoming closure and loss of government marketing subsidy.

Room revenue increased $3.8 million, or 61.1% compared to the fiscal quarter ended January 22, 2006, primarily resulting from the increased capacity at Isle-Biloxi, the new hotels in Black Hawk and Isle-Boonville. Pari-mutuel commissions earned at Pompano Park in Florida for the fiscal quarter were up slightly due to a closing in the prior year for 18 live race dates during the fiscal quarter ended January 22, 2006 related to the impact of Hurricane Wilma. Food, beverage and other revenues increased by $5.0 million, or 18.2%, primarily attributable to an increase at Isle-Biloxi resulting from our new and upgraded land-based casino and the prior year closure due to Hurricane Katrina and also the recognition of $2.2 million of business interruption insurance proceeds at Isle-Lake Charles related to Hurricane Rita claims. Promotional allowances, which are made up of complimentary revenues, cash points and coupons, are

rewards that we give our loyal customers to encourage them to continue to patronize our properties. These allowances increased by 13.4% in fiscal quarter ended January 28, 2007, as compared to the prior year quarter, primarily due to Isle-Biloxi being open for only one month of the fiscal quarter ended January 22, 2006 related to the impact of Hurricane Katrina.

Casino operating expenses increased $3.6 million, or 10.2% in the quarter ended January 28, 2007 compared to the fiscal quarter ended January 22, 2006. These expenses are primarily comprised of salaries, wages and benefits and other operating expenses of the casinos. Casino operating expenses increased in proportion to casino revenue from 14.9% to 16.5%, primarily due to Isle-Biloxi’s being open for only one month during the fiscal quarter ended January 22, 2006.

State and local gaming taxes decreased $2.9 million or 5.5%, in the fiscal quarter ended January 28, 2007 as compared to the fiscal quarter ended January 22, 2006 due to the decrease in gaming revenue. The effective rate for gaming taxes as a percentage of gaming revenue decreased from 22.4% to 21.3% due to a higher ratio of gaming revenues derived from lower rate states.

Room expenses increased $0.9 million, or 76.3%, compared to the fiscal quarter ended January 22, 2006 as a result of increased room capacity due to the opening of the Isle-Boonville hotel, the Isle-Black Hawk hotel expansion and the reopening of the Isle-Biloxi hotel. These expenses directly relate to the cost of providing hotel rooms. Other costs of the hotels are shared with the casinos and are presented in their respective expense categories.

Pari-mutuel operating costs of Pompano Park in Florida increased 13.5% in the current fiscal quarter as compared to our fiscal quarter ended January 22, 2006 due to a closing in the prior year related to the impact of Hurricane Wilma. Such costs consist primarily of compensation, benefits, purses, simulcast fees and other direct costs of track operations.

Food, beverage and other expenses increased $0.1 million, or 1.5% over the fiscal quarter ended January 22, 2006 primarily attributable to an increase at Isle-Biloxi resulting from our prior year closure due to Hurricane Katrina. These expenses consist primarily of the cost of goods sold, salaries, wages and benefits and other operating expenses of these departments. Food, beverage and other expenses as a percentage of gross food, beverage and other revenues decreased only slightly from the fiscal quarter ended January 22, 2006.

Marine and facilities expenses for the fiscal quarter ended January 28, 2007 increased $1.9 million, or 14.5%, compared to the fiscal quarter ended January 22, 2006 primarily related to the expanded facilities at Isle-Biloxi and because Isle-Biloxi was open for only one month during the fiscal quarter ended January 22, 2006 due to Hurricane Katrina. These expenses include salaries, wages and benefits of the marine and facilities departments, operating expenses of the marine crews, insurance, maintenance of public areas, housekeeping and general maintenance of the riverboats and pavilions.

Marketing and administrative expenses increased $11.0 million, or 16.6%, compared to the fiscal quarter ended January 22, 2006. Marketing expenses include salaries, wages and benefits of the marketing and sales departments, as well as promotions, direct mail, advertising, special events and entertainment. Administrative expenses include administration and human resource department expenses, rent, new development activities, professional fees and property taxes. The increase is primarily related to Isle-Biloxi being open for only one month of the prior year fiscal quarter due to Hurricane Katrina, the closure of Pompano Park in Florida for 18 live race dates in the prior year fiscal quarter due to Hurricane Wilma, increased property insurance expense totaling $4.5 million across all of our properties and stock compensation expense of $1.5 million.

In the prior year, for the three months ended January 22, 2006, we incurred $3.6 million in expenses related to hurricane damages, which we do not expect to recover from insurance proceeds. For the three months ended January 28, 2007, no such expense has been incurred due to a mild hurricane season.

Depreciation and amortization expense for the quarter increased $2.6 million primarily due to new property additions at Isle-Biloxi and Isle-Black Hawk and the new hotel at Isle-Boonville, as well as additional depreciation for the capitalization of the Arena Coventry Convention Center as discussed in Lease Commitments.

Table of Contents

Net interest expense for the quarter increased $1.8 million or 9.7% compared with our fiscal quarter ended January 22, 2006. This is attributable to the reversal of interest income previously recorded in relation to our lease on the Coventry arena, higher interest rates and higher debt balances on our senior secured credit facility partially offset by higher interest income and the allocation of a portion of net interest expense related to discontinued operations to the income statement line item Income from discontinued operations, net of income taxes in the prior year.

We expense all developmental costs until we determine that ultimate licensure and operation is deemed probable. At that time, we evaluate the applicable costs and capitalize, if appropriate, from that point forward.

All of our development plans are subject to obtaining permits, licenses and approvals from appropriate regulatory and other agencies and, in certain circumstances, negotiating acceptable leases. In addition, many of the plans are preliminary, subject to continuing refinement or otherwise subject to change.

Our effective tax rate from continuing operations for the three months ended January 28, 2007 was a benefit of 18.1% compared to an expense of 50.2% for the three months ended January 22, 2006, which, in each case, includes an unrelated party’s portion of the Colorado Central Station-Black Hawk’s income taxes. Our effective tax rate from combining continuing and discontinued operations for the quarter ended January 28, 2007 was a benefit of 19.1% compared to an expense of 43.7% for the quarter ended January 22, 2006. For each comparison, the change in effective rate over the comparable prior fiscal period is attributable to the effect of certain expenses related to the adoption of SFAS 123(R), and other permanent items on full-year projected pre-tax income.

Nine Fiscal Months Ended January 28, 2007 Compared to Nine Fiscal Months Ended January 22, 2006

Gross revenues for the fiscal nine months ended January 28, 2007 were $911.1 million, which included $760.0 million of casino revenue, $38.0 million of room revenue, $13.9 million of pari-mutuel commissions, and $99.3 million of food, beverage and other revenue. This compares to gross revenues for the nine months ended January 22, 2006 of $821.0 million, which included $695.0 million of casino revenue, $25.4 million of room revenue, $13.3 million of pari-mutuel commissions and $87.4 million of food, beverage and other revenue.

Casino revenue increased by $65.0 million, or 9.4%, compared to the fiscal nine months ended January 22, 2006. Our revenues from Isle-Biloxi increased by $74.5 million primarily due to limited competition in the Biloxi market in the early part of the current fiscal year, the prior year closure due to Hurricane Katrina. In addition, the Isle-Lake Charles experienced an increase of $13.3 million in revenues or 11.7% primarily due to the closure of a competitor in the market and the closure in the prior year due to Hurricane Rita. The Isle-Boonville’s revenues increased $5.3 million, or 9.4%, due to increased gaming patrons attracted with the opening of the new hotel. The increase in revenue from these properties offset reductions in revenue for the two Quad City properties and Isle-Marquette in Iowa, which were down collectively by $13.9 million due to increased competition and severe weather in the fiscal quarter ended January 28, 2007. Casino revenue at Isle-Kansas City was down $3.4 million over prior year due to severe weather in the fiscal quarter ended January 28, 2007 and increased competition. Casino revenue at our two Colorado casinos was down $3.6 million over prior year primarily due the impact of severe snowstorms affecting seven straight weekends of the fiscal quarter ended January 28, 2006 and to the opening of competitors’ facilities in the market. Isle-Our Lucaya casino revenue was down $5.1 million primarily due a decline in tourists on the island and reduced marketing spend as the company prepares to close this operation.

Room revenue increased $12.6 million, or 49.6%, compared to the fiscal nine months ended January 22, 2006, primarily resulting from the increased capacity at Isle-Biloxi, Isle-Black Hawk and the new hotel at Isle-Boonville. Pari-mutuel commissions earned at Pompano Park in Florida for the fiscal nine months were up slightly by a total of $0.5 million, or 4.1% primarily due to the closure for 18 live race dates in the

prior year related to the impact of Hurricane Wilma. Food, beverage and other revenues increased by $11.9 million, or 13.7%, primarily attributable to an increase at Isle-Biloxi resulting from limited competition in the market during the early part of the current fiscal year.

Promotional allowances, which are made up of complimentary revenues, cash points and coupons, are rewards that we give our loyal customers to encourage them to continue to patronize our properties. These allowances increased by 17.6% in fiscal nine months ended January 28, 2007, as compared to the prior year period. Promotional allowances increased slightly in proportion to casino revenue from 20.0% to 21.5% with increased allowances in fiscal 2007 resulting from the reopening of Isle-Biloxi and Isle-Lake Charles after Hurricanes Katrina and Rita.

Casino operating expenses increased $13.7 million, or 12.6% in the fiscal nine months ended January 28, 2007 compared to the fiscal nine months ended January 22, 2006. These expenses are primarily comprised of salaries, wages and benefits and other operating expenses of the casinos. Casino operating expenses, as a percent of casino revenue, remained flat, up only slightly from 15.7% to 16.1%. The increase was primarily due to Isle Biloxi’s operating costs increase of related to increased gaming volumes over prior year and the opening of additional gaming space in the current fiscal year.

State and local gaming taxes increased $6.2 million or 4.0%, in the fiscal nine months ended January 28, 2007 as compared to the fiscal nine months ended January 22, 2006 due primarily to the increase in gaming revenue. The rate for taxes as a percentage of gaming revenue decreased from 22.3% to 21.2% due to a higher ration of gaming revenues derived from lower rate states.

Room expenses increased $1.3 million, or 23.2%, compared to the fiscal nine months ended January 22, 2006 primarily as a result of increased room capacity at Isle-Biloxi and its closure for four months in the prior year due to Hurricane Katrina. Isle-Lake Charles was up due to its closure in prior year due to Hurricane Rita. The increase was also driven by the new hotel at Isle-Boonville and the hotel expansion at Isle-Black Hawk. These expenses directly relate to the cost of providing hotel rooms. Other costs of the hotels are shared with the casinos and are presented in their respective expense categories.

Pari-mutuel operating costs of Pompano Park in Florida increased 2.3% for the fiscal nine months ended January 28, 2007 as compared to the fiscal nine months ended January 22, 2006 as a result of being closed for 18 live race dates in the prior year due to the impact of Hurricane Wilma. Such costs consist primarily of compensation, benefits, purses, simulcast fees and other direct costs of track operations.

Food, beverage and other expenses increased $2.5 million, or 11.8% over the fiscal nine months ended January 22, 2006. These expenses increased primarily due to Isle-Biloxi being closed for four months in the prior year due to Hurricane Katrina. These expenses consist primarily of the cost of goods sold, salaries, wages and benefits and other operating expenses of these departments. Food, beverage and other expenses as a percentage of gross food, beverage and other revenues remained flat at 23.7% for the fiscal nine months ended January 28, 2007.

Marine and facilities expenses for the fiscal nine months ended January 28, 2007 increased $4.8 million, or 11.3%, compared to the fiscal nine months ended January 22, 2006. The increase was primarily due to the closure of Isle-Biloxi for four months in the prior year due to Hurricane Katrina, the closure of Isle-Lake Charles in the prior year due to Hurricane Rita, and expanded facilities at Pompano Park in Florida. These expenses include salaries, wages and benefits of the marine and facilities departments, operating expenses of the marine crews, insurance, maintenance of public areas, housekeeping and general maintenance of the riverboats and pavilions.

Marketing and administrative expenses increased $31.2 million, or 14.8%, compared to the fiscal nine months ended January 22, 2006. Marketing expenses include salaries, wages and benefits of the marketing and sales departments, as well as promotions, direct mail, advertising, special events and entertainment. Administrative expenses include administration and human resource department expenses, rent, new development activities, professional fees and property taxes. The increase is primarily related to the closure of Isle-Biloxi for four months in the prior year due to Hurricane Katrina, the closure of Isle-Lake Charles in

the prior year due to Hurricane Rita, the payment of a $2.2 million fee to our landlord related to the planned exit from Isle-Our Lucaya, increased property insurance expense at all of our properties, stock compensation expense, corporate relocation expense and increased marketing spend.

In the prior year, for the nine months ended January 22, 2006, we incurred $4.8 million in expenses related to hurricane damages, which we do not expect to recover from insurance proceeds. For the nine months ended January 28, 2007, no such expense has been incurred.

Depreciation and amortization expense for the fiscal nine months ended January 28, 2007 increased $7.1 million primarily due to new property additions at our Colorado and Isle-Biloxi properties and the new hotel at Isle-Boonville, as well as, additional depreciation for the capitalization of the Arena Coventry Convention Center as discussed in Lease Commitments.

Net interest expense increased $6.3 million or 11.8% compared with the fiscal nine months ended January 22, 2006. This is attributable to the reversal of interest income previously recorded in relation to our lease on the Coventry arena, the higher interest rates and higher debt balances on our senior secured credit facility partially offset by higher interest income and the allocation of a portion of net interest expense related to discontinued operations to the income statement line item Income from discontinued operations, net of income taxes in the prior year.

We expense all developmental costs until we determine that ultimate licensure and operation is deemed probable. At that time, we evaluate the applicable costs and capitalize, if appropriate, from that point forward.

All of our development plans are subject to obtaining permits, licenses and approvals from appropriate regulatory and other agencies and, in certain circumstances, negotiating acceptable leases. In addition, many of the plans are preliminary, subject to continuing refinement or otherwise subject to change.

Our effective tax rate from continuing operations for the fiscal nine months ended January 28, 2007 was an expense of 25.8% compared to an expense of 18.2% for the fiscal nine months ended January 22, 2006, which, in each case, includes an unrelated party’s portion of the Colorado Central Station-Black Hawk’s income taxes. The fiscal nine months ended January 28, 2007 does not include the gain related to the sale of our Vicksburg and Bossier City properties in our continuing operations. That gain is included in discontinued operations. Our effective tax rate from combining continuing and discontinued operations for the fiscal nine months ended January 28, 2007 was an expense of 51.8% compared to an expense of 34.4% for the fiscal nine months ended January 22, 2006. For each comparison, the change in effective rate over the comparable prior fiscal period is attributable to the effect of certain expenses related to the adoption of SFAS 123(R), and other permanent items on full-year projected pre-tax income.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At January 28, 2007, we had cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities of $147.3 million compared to $138.8 million at April 30, 2006. The $9.1 million increase in cash and cash equivalents is the net result of $50.6 million net cash provided by operating activities, $31.5 million net cash used in investing activities and $9.9 million net cash used in financing activities. The Company also had $2.6 million of restricted cash as of January 28, 2007. In addition, as of January 28, 2007, we had $409.6 million of capacity under the lines of credit which consisted of $381.0 million in unused credit capacity under the revolving credit facility governed by our senior secured credit facility and $28.6 million of unused credit capacity under the Isle-Black Hawk’s senior secured credit facility (limited to use by the Isle-Black Hawk). During the nine months ended January 28, 2007, we had net payments on our senior secured credit facility of $2.2 million and the Isle-Black Hawk made net payments of $4.6 million under the Isle-Black Hawk’s senior secured credit facility. We believe that existing cash, cash flow from operations and available borrowings under our existing credit facilities will be sufficient to support our working capital needs, planned capital expenditures and debt service requirements for the foreseeable future.

Investing Activities

We made expenditures of $289.3 million for property and equipment during the nine months ended January 28, 2007. Included in the $289.3 million was $45.1 million in construction costs related to the Isle-Biloxi casino reconstruction following Hurricane Katrina, which we expect to recover from insurance. The following table reflects expenditures and accruals for property and equipment on major projects approved by the Board of Directors for which we are committed as of January 28, 2007 and projected expenditures for these projects. The amounts in the table do not include any expenditures and accruals prior to the beginning of fiscal 2006.

We entered into an agreement during fiscal 2004 to lease space for Isle-Coventry (which is still under construction and is expected to open in fiscal year 2008) in Coventry, England in the Coventry Convention Center. The Coventry Convention Center was developed, owned and operated by a non-affiliated entity and began operations in August 2005. We determined that due to certain structural elements installed by us during the construction of the space being leased and certain prepaid lease payments made by us, we are required to be treated, for accounting purposes only, as the “owner” of the Coventry Convention Center, in accordance with EITF 97-10. As a result, we have recorded property and equipment, (net) of $50.3 million and $52.7 million as of April 30, 2006 and January 28, 2007, respectively. Additionally, we have recorded a long-term obligation for $42.4 million and $46.5 million as of April 30, 2006 and April 24, 2005 respectively. However, we do not own these assets, are not the obligor on the corresponding long-term obligation and do not participate in or control the operations of the Coventry Convention Center. These non-cash charges are not reflected in the below table.

We have signed a development agreement with the City of Bettendorf pursuant to which we agreed to construct a new 250-room Isle hotel and additional parking. The City of Bettendorf agreed to construct a 50,000 square foot convention center adjacent to our facility, which will be managed by Isle-Bettendorf. The cost of our hotel relating to this project is approximately $45.0 million, and the new hotel is scheduled to open in the late spring of 2007.

In June 2005, we agreed to a $43.0 million project with the City of Davenport in which we are building a 180-room hotel and rooftop restaurant, and the City of Davenport constructing a 500+ space parking ramp and providing funding to realign our casino with the new hotel facility. This project is being re-evaluated based upon the recent and pending legislative changes in Iowa.

In November 2004, voters in the State of Florida amended the state’s constitution to allow the voters of Miami-Dade and Broward counties (Broward County is the location of the Pompano Park Racetrack) to decide whether to approve slot machines in racetracks and jai alai frontons in their respective counties. Broward County voters passed their local referendum and Miami-Dade county voters rejected their referendum in March 2005.

On January 4, 2006, a Florida Statute became effective allowing Pompano Park and three other pari-mutuel facilities in Broward County to offer slot machine gaming to patrons at these facilities. Although there are pari-mutuel facilities in numerous other counties in the State of Florida, slot machine gaming is only authorized in Broward County where Pompano Park is located. We have constructed a slot machine and entertainment area at Pompano Park adjacent to the existing grandstand at a cost of $176.0 million. Slot machine operations commenced April 14, 2007. The statute authorized Pompano Park to install and operate up to 1,500 slot machines at its facility 365 days per year, 16 hours per day and requires Pompano Park to pay an annual license fee of $3 million and gaming taxes equal to 50% of Pompano Park’s net slot machine revenue plus combined county and city taxes of approximately an additional 3.5% on the first $250 million of net slot machines revenue and 5% on net slot machine revenue over $250 million.

Florida District Court of Appeal First District recently affirmed its earlier decision to reverse a lower court decision granting summary judgment in favor of Floridians for a Level Playing Field (FLPF), of which we are a member. Although the Court based its decision on different grounds than its earlier decision, the Court ruled that a trial is necessary to determine whether FLPF failed to obtain the required number of signatures to place the constitutional amendment on the ballot. However, the Court granted FLPF’s request to certify FLPF’s appeal of the Court’s decision to the Supreme Court. On March 27, 2007, the Supreme Court of Florida released an order accepting jurisdiction to review the District Court of Appeals’ earlier decision. We believe that the Appeals’ Courts decision is contrary to existing Florida law and if a trial were to be held, that FLPF would prevail on the merits and accordingly we are proceeding with the development. However, if FLPF is ultimately unsuccessful in the litigation, the statewide vote amending the Florida constitution to permit slot machines at pari-mutuels would be invalidated and our right to operate slot machines at Pompano Park could be eliminated. We cannot assure you as to the outcome of this litigation.

On May 11, 2005, we announced that the Iowa Racing and Gaming Commission awarded us a gaming license in Waterloo, Iowa. Construction is underway on a 35,000 square foot single level casino with 1,300 gaming positions, three restaurants, a nightclub, a full service spa and a resort pool, a 200-room hotel and 1,000 parking spaces. The Company expects the property to open in July of 2007 at a total cost of $175 million resulting from the expanded scope of the project. As of January 28, 2007, we have spent $51.8 million on this project.

As previously announced, we have postponed our $85.0 million expansion project in Kansas City, Missouri due to current bridge construction on Interstate 35. When the construction nears completion, we will reconsider the timing this expansion project. As of January 28, 2007, we have capitalized $1.5 million on this project.

As announced in December 2003, we entered into an agreement to develop and operate an Isle of Capri-themed casino, subject to obtaining a license, in a commercial leisure complex currently under development in Coventry, England. In fiscal year 2005, Isle was granted a gaming license to open the Coventry casino under the current legislation (Gaming Act 1968). Total project costs are estimated to be approximately $62 million. Project costs for the leased space include design, architectural, mechanical and electrical build-out, construction and equipment. As of January 28, 2007, we have spent $53.6 million on the Coventry project and expect to spend the remainder over the next nine months. Completion of the casino at the RICOHTM Arena Coventry is estimated to be in mid-calendar year 2007.

On August 18, 2006, the Harrison County Planning Commission approved our master plan for the previously announced 50-acre development at west Harrison County, Mississippi. Preliminary plans call

for the estimated $320 million project to include a single level gaming facility with over 2,000 gaming positions, a hotel, restaurants and a complement of additional resort amenities. The project remains in the preliminary planning stages, and is subject to certain significant conditions, including, but not limited to, the receipt of all necessary licenses, approvals and permits.

In late December 2006, we were notified that our proposed project with Melco PBL Entertainment and Eighth Wonder for a casino resort on Sentosa Island in Singapore had not been selected by authorities in Singapore.

Also in late December 2006, the Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board notified us that our proposed project in Pittsburgh had not been selected for a slot machine gaming license. That decision is currently under appeal.

On October 29, 2004, we loaned $5.0 million to Florida Gaming Corporation (“Florida Gaming”). Interest accrues on the unpaid principal balance of the loan at an annual rate of 6.0% and is paid in arrears on the first day of each fiscal quarter. The loan is secured by a pledge of all of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of Florida Gaming Centers, Inc. (“FGC”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Florida Gaming. The entire unpaid principal amount of the loan and unpaid interest thereon is payable on the earlier of (1) the sale of all or any material portion of the assets of, or all or any substantial equity interest in FGC, or (2) December 31, 2008. Concurrently with the loan, Florida Gaming and FGC entered into a letter agreement with us pursuant to which Florida Gaming and FGC gave us exclusive negotiating rights with respect to the acquisition of all or substantially all of FGC’s Miami jai alai business for a period ending no later than December 31, 2008.

On March 15, 2004, we announced that we had been selected by the Illinois Gaming Board as the successful bidder in a federal bankruptcy court auction for the 10th Illinois gaming license previously issued to Emerald Casinos, Inc. This process was conducted pursuant to an agreement approved by, among other parties, the Illinois Attorney General. We bid $518.0 million to acquire by merger the stock of a company in bankruptcy that owns the license. The plan of reorganization, pursuant to which the merger would be consummated, has been confirmed by the federal bankruptcy court. The merger remains subject to certain conditions, including a finding of suitability and final approval by the Illinois Gaming Board as well as certain other conditions. The entire matter also is the subject of ongoing litigation to which we are not a party. The Illinois Attorney General has raised issues with regard to the appropriateness of the Village of Rosemont as a host community and the Illinois Gaming Board’s selection of our bid. In addition, in 2006 the Illinois Gaming Board, based on a recommendation by an administrative law judge following a hearing, revoked the license issued to Emerald on the basis of Emerald’s past conduct (which revocation has been stayed pending the outcome of litigation). For the reasons set forth above, among others, we believe that our ability to obtain the gaming license and open a gaming facility in Rosemont has been subjected to added uncertainty. There can be no assurance that we will ultimately acquire the license.

The other capital improvements at all of our properties consists of numerous capital expenditures related to the purchase of furniture and equipment and the upgrade of hotel rooms, restaurants and other areas of our properties.

We expense all developmental costs until we determine that ultimate licensure and operation is deemed probable. At that time, we evaluate the applicable costs and capitalize, if appropriate, from that point forward.

All of our development plans are subject to obtaining permits, licenses and approvals from appropriate regulatory and other agencies and, in certain circumstances, negotiating acceptable leases. In addition, many of the plans are preliminary, subject to continuing refinement or otherwise subject to change.

Financing Activities

During the nine fiscal months ended January 28, 2007, we used $9.9 million in cash primarily in the following financing activities:

 

   

We made net payments on the Isle-Black Hawk’s senior secured revolving credit facility of $3.2 million.

 

   

We recognized a tax benefit of stock option exercises of $1.1 million.

 

   

We received proceeds from the exercise of stock options of $2.6 million.

 

   

We repurchased 255,721 shares of our common stock at an average price of $21.73 per share for an aggregate of $5.6 million.

 

   

We made net payments on our senior secured credit facility of $2.3 million.

 

   

We made net payments on the Isle-Black Hawk’s senior secured credit facility and other debt of $1.4 million.

 

   

We made net payments on other property debt of $0.8 million.

 

   

We made payments on our exit liability related to land in Cripple Creek, Colorado of $0.1 million.

 

   

We made other payments of $1.2 million.

 

   

We made payments on deferred financing costs of $0.1 million.

As of January 28, 2007, we had $409.6 million of capacity under lines of credit consisting of $381.0 million in unused credit capacity under the revolving credit facility governed by our senior secured credit facility and $28.6 million of unused credit capacity under the Isle-Black Hawk senior secured credit facility (limited to use by the Isle-Black Hawk). The revolving loan commitment is a variable rate instrument based on, at our option, LIBOR or our lender’s prime rate plus the applicable interest rate spread, and is effective through February 2010. Our lines of credit are also at variable rates based on our lender’s prime rate and are subject to annual renewal. There is no assurance that these sources will in fact provide adequate funding for the expenditures described above or that planned capital investments will be sufficient to allow us to remain competitive in our existing markets.

We are highly leveraged and may be unable to obtain additional debt or equity financing on acceptable terms. As a result, limitations on our capital resources could delay or cause us to abandon certain plans for capital improvements at our existing properties and/or development of new properties. We will continue to evaluate our planned capital expenditures at each of our existing locations in light of the operating performance of the facilities at such locations.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In July 2006, the FASB (“FASB”) issued FASB Interpretation No. 48 (“FIN 48”), “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes—an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109,” which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in tax positions. FIN 48 requires that a company recognize the impact of a tax position in its financial statements if that position is more likely than not to be sustained on audit, based on the technical merits of the position. The provisions of FIN 48 are effective in the first quarter of fiscal 2008, with the cumulative effect of the change in accounting principle recorded as an adjustment to opening retained earnings. We are currently evaluating the impact, if any, of adopting FIN 48 on our financial statements.

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS 157”), to define fair value and establish a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and to expand disclosures about fair value measurements. This Statement applies under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements. Prior to this Statement, there were different definitions of fair value and limited guidance for applying those definitions in GAAP. A single definition of fair value, together with a framework for measuring fair value, should result in increased consistency and comparability in fair value measurements. The expanded disclosures about the use of fair value to measure assets and liabilities should provide users of financial statements with better information about the extent to which fair value is used to measure recognized assets and liabilities, the inputs used to develop the measurements and the effect of certain of the measurements on earnings (or changes in net assets) for the period. SFAS 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years

beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods with those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact, if any, of adopting FASB No. 157 on our financial statements.

 

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

For quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk, see Item 7A, “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk,” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2006. Our exposures to market risk have not changed materially since April 30, 2006.

 

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As of January 28, 2007, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on the foregoing, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the design and operation of certain of our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of January 28, 2007 because of the material weaknesses described below.

The Company identified material weakness in our controls over the accounting for leases, accounting for income taxes, accounting for goodwill and intangible assets, and accounting for certain of our United Kingdom operations, which contributed to the restatement of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended January 28, 2007, in order to restate the financial statements for fiscal years ended through April 30, 2006, and the related quarterly results included therein, and for the first three fiscal quarters of fiscal 2007, as more fully described below and in Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Therefore management has determined that its internal control over financial reporting was ineffective as of January 28, 2007.

Accounting for Leases: A material weakness was identified in the Company’s controls over the accounting for leases which resulted in errors in the accounting for: (i) a lease agreement that should have been accounted for in accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force 97-10, “The Effect of Lessee Involvement in Asset Construction” and (ii) leases agreements containing rent escalation or rent holiday clauses that should be accounted for on a straight-line basis. The principal factor that contributed to this material weakness was the misinterpretation of certain U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Accounting for Income Taxes: A material weakness was identified in the Company’s controls over the accounting for income taxes which resulted in errors related to: (i) the accounting for tax effects of asset acquisitions related to purchase price allocations and contingent liabilities, (ii) recording the tax effect of various equity compensation plans to ensure that the tax effect of differences between book expense and tax deductions were recorded to equity when appropriate, (iii) the tax rates used to measure our deferred tax balances at the tax rates expected to apply when the deferred tax assets and liabilities are realized or settled, (iv) the portion of income tax expense related to minority interests, (v) our deferred tax balance which did not reflect all temporary differences, including those related to state income and franchise tax deductions, federal credits and valuation allowances against net operating losses, (vi) our reserves for contingent tax liabilities which were not updated to continually reflect our estimate of the probable amounts at which the liabilities would be settled, and (vii) our income tax payable accounts which did not reflect the amount of income tax liability due based on events reflected in the financial statements. The principal factor that contributed to this material weakness was the misinterpretation of certain U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Accounting for Goodwill and Intangible Assets: A material weakness was identified in the Company’s controls over the accounting for goodwill and intangible assets which resulted in errors in the accounting for: (i) the purchase price allocation of certain intangible assets to specific casino properties, (ii) the determination of amortization periods for certain intangible assets, and (iii) the failure to record future payments for certain license costs at net present value. The principal factor that contributed to this material weakness was the misinterpretation of certain U.S generally accepted accounting principles.

United Kingdom Accounting: A material weakness was identified in the Company’s controls over the accounting for our Blue Chip Casinos plc, United Kingdom operations which resulted in adjustments related primarily to the identification and recording of fixed assets which were not properly recorded and the associated depreciation related to those assets, as well as corrections for previously un-reconciled expense and balance sheet accounts related primarily to payroll liabilities, professional service accruals, interest accruals and other operating expenses. Specifically, the material weakness was the result of insufficient oversight by certain corporate personnel.

Planned Remediation Efforts to Address Material Weaknesses

While these material weaknesses were not remediated as of January 28, 2007, we have taken the following actions to address them:

To address our material weakness relating to accounting for leases, in June 2007 the Company engaged a third party professional services firm to review all of the Company’s leases to verify the Company is recording leases in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, based on lease terms. In addition, the Company implemented a revised Summary of Procedures for lease accounting on May 18, 2007. These updated procedures state the technical guidance on accounting for leases and instituted multi-level review controls for new leases at the property level and at the corporate office.

To address our material weakness relating to the determination and reporting of the provision for income taxes and related deferred income tax balances, we have restructured our tax department and engaged a new third party tax consultant to assist our internal tax department in calculating our income tax provision and deferred tax balances. This involved performing a comprehensive analysis of components of the income tax provision of all Company consolidated entities. Additionally, a more formal review process is being established to monitor the differences between the income tax basis and the financial reporting basis of assets and liabilities to effectively reconcile the deferred income tax balances.

To address our material weakness relating to goodwill and intangible assets, we undertook a thorough review of historical goodwill and intangible asset activity and balance to ensure compliance with SFAS 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets”. In addition, the Company implemented a revised Summary of Procedures for goodwill and intangible accounting. These updated procedures state the technical guidance on accounting for goodwill and intangibles and instituted multi-level review controls at the corporate office. Additionally, in recent months the Company has augmented its corporate accounting department.

To address our material weakness relating to the oversight and monitoring of one of our United Kingdom operations, the Company assumed management responsibilities for the United Kingdom location in fiscal year 2007. In addition, we will augment internal audit work that will include work performed at out foreign locations and additional audit resources. We are also planning quarterly off-site and periodic on-site financial reviews to better identify significant variances and non-recurring transactions.

CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

Expect as otherwise discussed above, there have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION

 

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

Lady Luck Gaming Corporation (now a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company) and several joint venture partners are defendants in a lawsuit brought by the country of Greece through its Minister of Tourism (now Development) and Finance. The action alleges that the defendants failed to make specified payments in connection with the gaming license bid process for Patras, Greece. The payment the Company is alleged to have been required to make totals approximately 6.5 million Euros (which was approximately $8.2 million as of April 30, 2006 based on published exchange rates). Although it is difficult to determine the damages being sought from the lawsuit, the action may seek damages up to that aggregate amount plus interest from the date of the action. The Athens Civil Court of First Instance granted judgment in the Company’s favor and dismissed the lawsuit, but the Ministry appealed the matter and the appeal was heard before the Athens Appeal Court of First Instance. The Athens Appeal Court issued certified copies of judgments denying the Ministry’s appeal. The Ministry elected to appeal this matter further to the Supreme Court. During October 2005, the Administrative Supreme Court remanded the matter back to the Athens Administrative Appeals Court for a hearing on the merits, which is expected to take place at the end of 2006 or early 2007. The civil matter was set for hearing before the Greek Supreme Court during May 2006; however, prior to the scheduled hearing date, the Greek Supreme Court reset the hearing for January 8, 2007. The outcome of this matter is still in doubt and cannot be predicted with any degree of certainty. We intend to continue a vigorous and appropriate defense to the claims asserted in this matter.

We are subject to certain federal, state and local environmental protection, health and safety laws, regulations and ordinances that apply to businesses generally, and are subject to cleanup requirements at certain of our facilities as a result thereof. We have not made, and do not anticipate making, material expenditures, nor do we anticipate incurring delays with respect to environmental remediation or protection. However, in part because our present and future development sites have, in some cases, been used as manufacturing facilities or other facilities that generate materials that are required to be remediated under environmental laws and regulations, there can be no guarantee that additional pre-existing conditions will not be discovered and that we will not experience material liabilities or delays.

We are subject to various contingencies and litigation matters and have a number of unresolved claims. Although the ultimate liability of these contingencies, this litigation and these claims cannot be determined at this time, we believe that they will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

You should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties related to our business described in Disclosure Regarding Forward Looking Statements in the front of this document. Our business, financial condition, results of operations and stock price could be materially adversely affected by any of these risks. These risks are not the only ones facing us. Additional risks and uncertainties that are currently unknown to us or that we currently consider to be immaterial may also impair our business or adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations and stock price.

We are subject to extensive regulation from gaming authorities that could adversely affect us.

Florida District Court of Appeal First District recently affirmed its earlier decision to reverse a lower court decision granting summary judgment in favor of Floridians for a Level Playing Field (FLPF), of which we are a member. Although the Court based its decision on different grounds than its earlier decision, the Court ruled that a trial is necessary to determine whether FLPF failed to obtain the required number of signatures to place the constitutional amendment on the ballot. However, the Court granted FLPF’s request to certify FLPF’s appeal of the Court’s decision to the Supreme Court. On March 27, 2007, the Supreme Court of Florida released an order accepting jurisdiction to review the District Court of Appeal’s earlier decision. We believe that the Appeal’s Court decision is contrary to existing Florida law and if a trial were to be held, that FLPF would prevail on the merits and accordingly we are proceeding with the development. However, if FLPF is ultimately unsuccessful in the litigation, the statewide vote amending the Florida constitution to permit slot machines at pari-mutuels would be invalidated and our right to operate slot machines at Pompano Park could be eliminated. We cannot assure you as to the outcome of this litigation.

We have identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting and may not be able to report timely and accurate financial results.

We have identified several material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting and have restated our results for the years ended through April 30, 2006 and the related quarterly results therein, and the first three fiscal quarters ended January 28, 2007. We cannot be assured that additional material weaknesses, significant deficiencies and control deficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting will not be identified in the future.

Management identified material weaknesses in the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting which contributed to the need to restate some of our historical operating results. Management identified four areas of material weakness. These areas include controls over accounting and reporting of our international operations, goodwill and other intangible assets, accounting for leases, and income tax accounting. These material weaknesses contributed to the need to restate our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended January 28, 2007, in order to restate the financial statements for fiscal years ended through April 30, 2006, and the related quarterly results included therein, and for the first three fiscal quarters of fiscal 2007. As a result of these material weaknesses, our management has revised its earlier assessment and has now concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of April 30, 2006 due to the items noted above.

Management had identified each of the items above as areas for improvement prior to the quarter ended January 28, 2007 and has been in the process of implementing improvements to the internal controls related to these areas, which in part led to the discovery of these items included in our restatement of financial statements. Although we believe the actions we have taken to date and our remediation plan will address the material weaknesses, we continue to evaluate our disclosure controls and procedures and our internal control over financial reporting, and may modify, enhance or supplement them in the future. Any modifications, enhancements or supplements to our control systems could be costly to prepare or implement and cause our operating expenses to increase. If we fail to maintain adequate internal controls, including any failure to implement required new or improved controls, or we encounter difficulties in their implementation, our business and operating results could be harmed, additional significant deficiencies or material weaknesses could be identified, we may fail to meet our periodic reporting obligations and/or future financial statements may contain material misstatements that could results in further restatements of our financial statements. The occurrence of any of the foregoing could harm our business, operating results and reputation and cause our investors and lenders to lose confidence in our reported information.

In addition to the foregoing, you should consider each of the factors set forth in this Quarterly Report in evaluating our business and our prospects. The factors described in our Part 1 Item 2 are not the only ones we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently consider immaterial may also impair our business operations. If any of the risks actually occur, our business and financial results could be harmed. In that case, the trading price of our common stock could decline.

On October 7, 2005 the board also approved the repurchase of an additional 1,500,000 shares. To date, we have purchased 1,634,819 shares of our common stock under the two programs. The current program has no approved dollar amounts, nor expiration date.

 

ITEM 3. DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES

The senior secured credit facility provides for certain covenants, including those of a financial nature. The senior secured credit facility is secured by liens on substantially all of the Company’s assets and guaranteed by all of its restricted subsidiaries. There has been no payment or material defaults. However, as a result of the Company’s delay in filing its 10-Q for the quarter ended January 28, 2007, the Company did not meet its obligation to file certain financial reporting requirements. On March 15, 2007, the Company received a limited waiver on meeting these financial reporting requirements through June 15, 2007, which was later extended to August 31, 2007. Upon filing this Form 10-Q/A on July 25, 2007, the Company will have met this obligation.
