NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

1. ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

 

Colony Resorts LVH Acquisitions, LLC, a Nevada limited liability company (the “Company”), was formed at the direction of Colony Investors VI, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“Colony VI”) and an affiliate of Colony Capital, Inc. (“Colony Capital”), under the laws of the State of Nevada on December 18, 2003. Pursuant to the Company’s Amended and Restated Operating Agreement, dated June 18, 2004 (the “Operating Agreement”), the Company will continue in existence perpetually. Members of the Company, however, may terminate the Operating Agreement and dissolve the Company at any time.

 

The Company’s members consist of Colony Resorts LVH Holdings, LLC (“Holdings”), which is a wholly owned subsidiary of Colony VI, a discrete investment fund managed by an affiliate of Colony Capital, Colony Resorts LVH Co-Investment Partners, L.P. (“Co-Investment Partners”), Colony Resorts LVH Coinvestment Voteco, LLC (“Coinvestment Voteco”) and Colony Resorts LVH VoteCo, LLC (“Voteco”), each of which purchased Class A or Class B Membership Units on June 18, 2004 in connection with the equity financing described in Note 9.

 

Prior to June 18, 2004, the Company had conducted no business other than in connection with the execution of the Purchase and Sale Agreement (as defined below), relating to the acquisition of substantially all of the assets and certain liabilities of LVH Corporation, a Nevada corporation (“LVH”) (the “Acquisition”). LVH is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Caesars Entertainment, Inc., formerly Park Place Entertainment Corporation (“Caesars”) that prior to the Acquisition (further discussed in Note 2) operated the Las Vegas Hilton, a casino resort located in Las Vegas, Nevada (the “Hotel” or the “Property”). Commencing June 18, 2004, the revenue and expense of the Property are included in the Company’s statement of operations.

 

Interim Financial Statements

 

The accompanying condensed financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the Untied States of America have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.

 

In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods have been made. The results for the three and six-month period ended June 30, 2004, are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full fiscal year. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2003, included in the Company’s Post-Effective Amendment No. 2 to Form 10 Registration Statement filed August 13, 2004 (File No. 000-50635) (the “Form 10”). Pursuant to Rule 302, the registrant has included statements of operations and cash flows of the predecessor for the periods ended June 30, 2003 and the period from January 1, 2004 through June 30, 2004.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, including related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, management evaluates those estimates, including those related to asset impairment, accruals for slot marketing points, compensation and related benefits, revenue recognition, allowance for doubtful accounts, contingencies and litigation. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Risk Factors

 

On June 17, 2004, the Company secured a Nevada State gaming license for the ownership and operation of the Hotel. The Company is now subject to the normal risks inherent in operating a hotel casino, including compliance with regulatory, tax and operational requirements.

 

2. THE ACQUISITION

 

On June 18, 2004, the Company completed the Acquisition of substantially all of the assets and assumed certain liabilities of LVH for $291 million in cash, which includes the purchase price of $280 million, a working capital adjustment of $6 million and professional fees and other expenses related to the acquisition of $5 million. The purchase and sale agreement dated December 24, 2003 included a provision whereby the purchase price of $280 million was subject to adjustment related to the working capital of LVH. The working capital adjustment of $6 million was determined based upon the preliminary closing balance sheet as of May 31, 2004. The final working capital adjustment will be determined based upon the June 17, 2004 closing balance sheet, which should be completed during the third quarter of this year. The transaction was accounted for as a purchase and, accordingly, the purchase price and preliminary working capital adjustment were allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon their estimated fair values at the date of Acquisition. The estimated fair values of property and equipment were based upon third-party valuations. The Company funded the Acquisition through the issuance of $150 million of membership units (further discussed in Note 9) and $200 million of long-term debt (as further discussed in Note 7).

 

The following unaudited proforma financial information for the Company has been prepared assuming the acquisition had occurred on the first day of the six-month period ended June 30, 2004:

The unaudited proforma financial information for the six months ended June 30, 2003 has not been presented. Management does not believe that such information would be meaningful since the Company was not formed until December 18, 2003.

 

3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and short-term investments with original maturities not in excess of 90 days.

 

Restricted Cash

 

The Company has on deposit $30,675,000 in various escrow accounts as of June 30, 2004, of which $26,000,000 is to be used for renovation projects and the remaining amounts are held for debt service and property taxes.

 

Inventories

 

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined by the first-in, first-out and specific identification methods. Inventories consist primarily of food, beverage and retail products.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

 

Accounts Receivable

 

Accounts Receivable are due within one year and are recorded net of amounts estimated to be uncollectible.

 

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

 

The Company allows for an estimated amount of receivables that may not be collected. The Company estimates an allowance for doubtful accounts using a specific formula applied to aged receivables as well as a specific review of large balances. Historical experience is considered, as are customer relationships, in determining specific reserves.

 

Deferred Financing Costs

 

Deferred financing costs of $4.9 million relate to the Company’s financing of the Acquisition. The Company has commenced amortization of these costs since the closing of the Acquisition using the effective interest method.

 

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation and amortization are provided on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:

 

Building and Improvements

   40 Years

Furniture and Fixtures

   7 Years

Gaming Equipment

   5 Years

 

Casino Revenue and Promotional Allowances

 

Casino revenue is the aggregate of gaming wins and losses. In accordance with industry practice, the retail value of accommodations, food and beverage, and other services furnished to hotel/casino guests without charge is included in gross revenue and then deducted as promotional allowances.

 

Hotel and Food and Beverage Revenues

 

Hotel revenue recognition criteria are generally met at the time of occupancy. Food and beverage revenue recognition criteria are generally met at the time of service. Deposits for future hotel occupancy or food and beverage services contracts are recorded as deferred income until revenue recognition criteria are met. Cancellation fees for hotel and food and beverage services are recognized upon cancellation by the customer as defined by a written contract entered into with the customer.

 

Slot Club Promotion and Progressive Jackpot Payouts

 

The Company has established a promotional club to encourage repeat business from frequent and active slot machine customers and table games patrons. Members earn points based on gaming activity and such points can be redeemed for cash. The Company accrues for club points as a reduction to revenue based upon the estimates for expected redemptions. The Company maintains a number of progressive slot machines and table games. As wagers are made on the respective progressive games, the amount available to win (to be paid out when the appropriate jackpots are hit) increases. The Company has recorded the progressive jackpots as a liability with a corresponding charge against casino revenue.

 

Advertising Costs

 

Costs for advertising are expensed as incurred, except costs for direct-response advertising, which are capitalized and amortized over the period of the related program. Direct-response advertising consists primarily of mailing costs associated with the direct-mail programs. Capitalized advertising costs, included in prepaid expense, were immaterial at June 30, 2004. Advertising costs that were expensed during the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2004 were immaterial.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

 

Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk, consist principally of short-term investments and receivables. The short-term investments (including restricted cash equivalents) are placed with a high credit quality financial institution, which invests primarily in money market funds.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company is a limited liability company and will be taxed as a partnership for federal income tax purposes. Accordingly, no provision for federal income taxes was recorded because the taxable income or loss is included in the income tax return of the members.

 

Pre-opening Costs

 

Pre-opening costs representing primarily direct personnel and other costs incurred prior to the Acquisition were expensed as incurred.

 

Loss Per Membership Unit

 

The Company’s loss per membership unit was calculated using the two-class method. Under the two-class method, losses are allocated to each class of membership unit based on the respective members’ participation rights in undistributed losses.

 

The diluted loss per membership unit includes the effect of the assumed conversion of the Class B Membership Units into Class A Membership Units at a 1:1 ratio. The 0.167 options to purchase Class A Membership Units and 167,667 options to purchase Class B Membership Units have been excluded from the diluted loss per membership unit calculation because the assumed conversion of these options would be anti-dilutive.

 

2004 Incentive Plan

 

In connection with the closing of the Acquisition, the Company’s board and members approved the Company’s 2004 Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). As of June 18, 2004, the Company had a total of 0.167 Class A Units and 167,667 Class B units reserved for issuance under the Plan.

 

Subsequent to the closing of the Acquisition, the Company granted 0.167 options of Class A Units and 167,667 options of Class B Units to certain executives, in accordance with the Plan. The options have a 10 year life, vest over three years and are valued at $100 per unit in both classes.

 

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation, including employee stock option plans, in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” and the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s Interpretation No. 44, “Accounting for Certain Transactions involving Stock Compensation, an interpretation of APB Opinion No. 25.” Had the Company accounted for these plans under the fair value method allowed by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” (“SFAS 123”), as amended by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation—Transition and Disclosure” (“SFAS 148”), the Company’s net loss and loss per membership unit would not have been impacted materially by the fair value of employee membership unit options.

 

Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

 

The Company uses interest rate caps to assist in managing interest incurred on its long-term debt. The difference between amounts received and amounts paid under such agreement, as well as any costs or fees, is recorded as a reduction of, or addition to, interest expense as incurred over the life of the interest rate cap.

7. TERM LOAN

 

On June 18, 2004 in connection with the consummation of the Acquisition, the Company entered into the Goldman Term Loan (the “Term Loan”). The Term Loan is for a principal amount of $200 million and is for an initial term of two (2) years with two one-year extensions. The Term Loan is subject to a $30 million holdback amount: $26 million has been set aside for renovation and construction and $4 million is held as a debt-service reserve. Interest on the Term Loan accrues at a rate of 6.50% plus the greater of (i) one-Month LIBOR or (ii) 1.5%. The Term Loan provides for no amortization during the term. The Term Loan is secured by a first priority deed of trust on the Property.

 

Pursuant to the terms of the Term Loan, the Company purchased an interest rate cap with LIBOR strike rate of 5% for the first two years of the Term Loan and an interest rate cap with LIBOR strike rate of 6% for any extension periods.

 

8. REDEEMABLE MEMBERS’ EQUITY

 

In connection with the closing of the Acquisition, the Company, Voteco, Coinvestment Voteco, Co-Investment Partners and Holdings entered into a Sale Right Agreement, dated June 18, 2004 (the “Sale Right Agreement”). Pursuant to the terms of Co-Investment Partners’ partnership agreement, at any time after May 23, 2008, Whitehall (a limited partner in Co-Investment Partners and an affiliate of Goldman Sachs & Co. and Archon Financial, L.P., the lender under the Goldman Term Loan) has the right to request that Co-Investment Partners purchase all of Whitehall’s interest in Co-Investment Partners at a purchase price determined by Whitehall. Pursuant to the Sale Right Agreement, upon receiving notice from Whitehall that it has exercised the sale right above the Company must, within forty-five days elect to either (i) purchase Whitehall’s interest in Co-investment Partners or (ii) sell the Company in its entirety. If the Company elects not to purchase Whitehall’s interest, it must appoint Goldman Sachs & Co. as its sole and exclusive agent for a period of one year to seek to sell the Company at a price extrapolated from the price Whitehall established for its interest in Co-Investment Partners. In addition, on June 18, 2010, if the Company has not been sold pursuant to sale right above or otherwise, the Company shall appoint Goldman Sachs & Co. as its sole agent to seek to sell the Company at the best price obtainable. For purposes of the financial statement presentation and the diluted membership unit calculation, it is assumed that the redemption of Whitehall’s interest or sale of the property will be consummated at fair value.

 

9. MEMBERSHIP INTERESTS

 

In connection with and immediately prior to the Acquisition, the Company issued Class A Membership Units (“Class A Units”) to Coinvestment VoteCo and VoteCo on a pro rata basis in proportion to the equity contributions made by each entity. In addition, the Company issued Class B Membership Units (“Class B Units” and together with the Class A Units, the “Membership Units”) to Co-Investment Partners and to Holdings, on a pro rata basis in proportion to the equity contributions made by each entity. All of these entities are existing affiliates of the Company.

 

As of June 30, 2004, VoteCo owns 0.60 Class A Units and Coinvestment Voteco owns 0.90 Class A Units. In addition, as of June 30, 2004, Holdings owns 600,000 Class B Units and Co-Investment Partners owns 900,000 Class B Units. Prior to the closing of the Acquisition, the Company executed the Operating Agreement. Pursuant to the Operating Agreement, holders of Class A Units are entitled to one vote per unit in all matters to be voted on by voting members of the Company. Holders of Class B units are not entitled to vote, except as otherwise expressly required by law.

 

On June 18, 2004, the Company issued Class A Units and Class B Units in connection with the organizational structure that was put in place in order to consummate the Acquisition. Pursuant to that organizational structure, Holdings and Co-Investment Partners, through their purchase of the non-voting Class B Units, acquired substantially all of the assets of LVH without having any voting power or other power to control the affairs or operations of the Company, except as otherwise expressly required by law.

11. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

Employment and Services Agreements

 

The Company has entered into employment or services agreements, as amended, with several executives. The employment agreements have initial terms of six months to five years and some are subject to one-year extensions. The employment agreements provide that the executives will receive a base salary with either mandatory increases or annual adjustments and annual bonus payments.

 

In addition, the employment agreements provide that the Company grant certain executives options to purchase the Company’s Class A Units and Class B Units that are issued and outstanding as of the date on which the Acquisition was completed. The Options were granted under the 2004 Incentive Plan adopted by the Company. Depending on the terms of the employment agreement, executives were granted options to purchase 0.5% to 7.5% of the Membership Units.

 

Hilton License Agreement

 

Concurrently with the closing of the Acquisition, the Company entered into a License Agreement pursuant to which the Company licenses from Hilton the right to use the mark “Hilton” and is part of Hilton’s reservation system and Hilton’s “HHonors Program(TM)”. The License Agreement commenced on the date of the closing of the Acquisition and expires on December 31, 2008. During the term of the License Agreement, the Company is required to pay Hilton an annual fee of $2,000,000 plus 1% of the Hotel’s gross room revenue to fund national and regional group advertising and sales and business promotion efforts by Hilton.

 

Easements

 

The Hilton Grand Vacations property, located adjacent to the Hotel, has an easement for use of approximately 260 parking spaces (out of approximately 4,800 parking spaces). There is also an easement for the use of the monorail that runs through the Hotel property.

 

Environmental

 

An independent environmental consultant performed a Phase I environmental site assessment in accordance with the American Society for Testing and Materials (“ASTM”) standards on the Las Vegas Hilton property in December 2003. This assessment involved visual inspection, interviews with site personnel, review of certain publicly available records and preparation of a written report. The assessment did not include any testing of soil or groundwater at the property. According to certain historical data integrated into the Phase I report, in 2000 it was discovered that there is a plume of tetrachloroethene in the groundwater and the property was listed as a leaking underground storage tank site. The contamination is believed to originate from an off-site source, but the source has not yet been identified.

 

To date, the Nevada Division of Environmental Protection has not required any additional investigation at the property. The Phase I report states that levels of tetrachloroethene and total petroleum hydrocarbons in the groundwater beneath the property in 2000 exceeded certain limits allowed under a National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System permit. The Phase I report indicates that the allowable levels have been exceeded in the past and a treatment system is needed to ensure compliance with applicable requirements. The Company expects to install a treatment system at a nominal cost. The Phase I report also identified asbestos-containing materials at the Hotel. The Company expects to manage these materials pursuant to an operations and maintenance program.

 

The Company has not determined what the cost, if any, will be with respect to the groundwater or the asbestos issue, however, the Company believes that the issues will not have a material effect upon its financial position or results of operations. There can be no assurance, however, that the estimated capital and operating costs for the treatment system will not be exceeded or that there will be no claims or other liabilities associated with the foregoing conditions.

 

Litigation

 

The Company is not a party to any litigation and, it is not aware of any action, suit or proceedings against it that has been threatened by any person.

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

 

The following discussion and analysis of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the financial statements, the related notes to financial statements and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” included in the Company’s Post-Effective Amendment No. 2 to Form 10 Registration Statement and the unaudited interim condensed financial statements and notes thereto included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A.

 

Overview

 

Prior to June 18, 2004 the Colony Resorts LVH Acquistions, LLC (“the Company”), conducted no business other than in connection with the execution of a Purchase and Sale Agreement (as defined below), relating to the acquisition of substantially all of the assets and certain liabilities of LVH Corporation, a Nevada corporation (“LVH”) (the “Acquisition”). LVH is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Caesars Entertainment, Inc., formerly Park Place Entertainment Corporation (“Caesars”) that prior to the Acquisition, operated the Las Vegas Hilton, a casino resort located in Las Vegas, Nevada (the “Property”).

 

Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase and Sale Agreement, the Company purchased substantially all of the assets and assumed certain liabilities of LVH. The Acquisition closed on June 18, 2004. Since June 18, 2004, the Company has owned and operated the Property and accordingly has a limited operating history. Therefore, the discussion of operations herein focuses on events and the revenues and expenses during the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 as if there was no change in ownership of the Property on June 18, 2004 compared to the historical operations of the Property for the three and six months and June 30, 2003.

 

Casino revenue is derived primarily from patrons wagering on slot machines, table games and other gaming activities. Table games generally include Blackjack or Twenty One, Craps, Baccarat and Roulette. Other gaming activities include Keno and the Race and Sports Book. Casino revenue is defined as the win from gaming activities, computed as the difference between gaming wins and losses, not the total amounts wagered. “Table game volume,” “table game drop” (terms which are used interchangeably), and “slot handle” are casino industry specific terms that are used to identify the amount wagered by patrons for a casino table game or slot machine, respectively. “Table game hold” and “slot hold” represent the percentage of the total amount wagered by patrons that the casino has won. Hold is derived by dividing the amount won by the casino by the amount wagered by patrons. Casino revenue is recognized at the end of each gaming day.

 

Casino revenues vary from time to time due to general economic conditions, popularity of entertainment offerings, table game hold, slot hold, and occupancy percentages in the hotels. Casino revenues also vary depending upon the amount of gaming activity as well as variations in the odds for different games of chance. The Property also uses technology, such as cashless wagering on slot machines, to increase revenues and/or decrease expenses. Casino revenues, room revenues, food and beverage revenues and other revenues vary due to general economic conditions and competition.

 

Room revenue is derived from rooms and suites rented to guests. “Average daily rate” is an industry specific term used to define the average amount of revenue per rented room per day. “Occupancy percentage” defines the total percentage of rooms occupied, and is computed by dividing the number of rooms occupied by the total number of rooms available. Room revenue is recognized at the time the room is provided to the guest.

 

Food and beverage revenues are derived from food and beverage sales in the food outlets of the Property, including restaurants, room service and banquets. Food and beverage revenue is recognized at the time the food and/or beverage is provided to the guest.

 

Other revenue includes retail sales, entertainment sales, telephone and other miscellaneous income at the casino/hotel. Such revenue is recognized at the time the goods or services are provided to the guest.

The increase was primarily attributed to an increase in the average daily rate as well as occupancy percentage at 92.2% for the three months ended June 30, 2004 compared to 86.7% for the three months ended June 30, 2003. The average daily rate increased from $86.67 for the three months ended June 30, 2003 to $94.39 for the three months ended June 30, 2004.

Other revenue increased $640,000 to $4,993,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2004 as compared to $4,353,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2003. The increase is principally due to the renegotiating of tenant leases and an increase in convention space rental.

Table games hold percentage increased 3.35 percentage points from 11.25 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2003 to 14.6 percent for the six months ended June 2004. Table games volume increased approximately 3.8 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2004, compared to the same period in the prior year.

The average daily rate increased from $94.75 for the six months ended June 30, 2003 to $105 for the six months ended June 30, 2004.

The increase is principally due to the renegotiating of tenant leases and an increase in convention space rental.

 

Operating Expenses

 

Casino operating expenses increased $2,709,000 to $28,217,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2004 as compared to $25,508,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2003. The increase was primarily related to increased wages over the corresponding prior period and marketing cost incurred by the Company upon the acquisition of the Property.

 

General and administrative expenses increased $1,565,000 to $32,710,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2004 as compared to $31,145,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2003. The increase was primarily related to costs incurred by LVH related to the sale of the property.

 

The Company incurred pre-opening expenses of $6,326,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2004. Pre-opening including payroll, professional services and other general and administrative expenses related to the Acquisition.

 

Financial Condition

 

Liquidity

 

As of June 30, 2004, the Company had cash and equivalents of $26,560,000, of which $8,779,000 is primarily cash in the casino used to fund daily operations.

 

The Company raised $150 from the sale of the Class A Units and $150 million from the sale of the Class B Units. The Term Loan is for a principal amount of $200 million and interest accrues at a rate of 6.50% plus the greater of (i) one-month LIBOR or (ii) 1.5%. $30 million of the Term Loan is held back for capital expenditures and an interest reserve. The initial term is two years with two one-year extension options. In addition, the Term Loan contains important affirmative and negative financial covenants customary for loans of this nature, which may restrict the Company’s ability to operate the casino and hotel operations or pursue development opportunities if desired.

 

The Company expects that its cash flows from operations, together with cash on hand and available borrowings, including the Term Loan, will be adequate to fund its activities, including the capital expenditures that the Company plans to make over the foreseeable future. However, no assurances can be made that such sources of financing will be sufficient to fund such activities and capital expenditures and the Company’s debt, including the Term Loan, will materially restrict future borrowings. Subject to certain conditions, the Term Loan does permit the Company to incur additional debt to fund working capital. The Company may seek to obtain a working capital line of credit.

 

A downturn in the economy, increase in revenue or wagering taxes, acts of terrorism, war or military actions would impact the Company’s casino operations and negatively impact its cash flows from operations. If this were to occur, the Company would be required to adjust its capital spending plans.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

The Company is not currently subject to any off-balance sheet arrangements which it believes will have a material adverse impact on its financial condition.

Table of Contents

Critical Accounting Policies

 

A summary of the Company’s significant accounting policies can be found in Note 3 to financial statement included within this Form 10Q/A. The Company’s preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Significant among those estimates are the useful lives and potential impairment of long-term assets, such as buildings and equipment and the adequacy of the Company’s allowance for uncollectible receivables. These estimated amounts are based on management of the Company’s best judgments using both historical information and known trends of the Property, the City of Las Vegas and the gaming industry. Because of the uncertainty inherent in any estimate, it is likely that the actual results will differ from the initial estimates, and the differences could be material.

 

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

The following discusses the Company’s exposure to market risk related to changes in interest rates, equity prices and foreign currency exchange rates. The Company does not believe that its exposure to market risk is material.

 

Market risk is the risk of loss arising from changes in market rates and prices, such as interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and commodity prices. The Company is exposed to no such market risks. The Company has market risk associated with funds that were borrowed to finance the Acquisition and pay related fees and expenses.

 

The Company executed the Term Loan concurrently with the closing of the Acquisition. The Term Loan is for a principal amount of $200 million and interest accrues at a rate of 6.50% plus the greater of (i) one-month LIBOR or (ii) 1.5%. The initial term of the Term Loan is two years with two one-year extension options. The Term Loan is subject to interest rate risk and the interest payments associated with the Term Loan will increase if LIBOR increases.

 

Pursuant to the terms of the Term Loan, the Company purchased an interest rate cap with a LIBOR strike rate of 5% for the first two years of the Term Loan and an interest rate cap with a LIBOR strike rate of 6% for any extension periods; therefore, a hypothetical increase in LIBOR of 1000 basis points from the rates in effect on the date of this Form 10-Q/A would not cause the interest payments on the Term Loan to increase significantly. The Company does not currently anticipate a sudden change in LIBOR during the term of the Term Loan.

 

The Company does not have any significant foreign currency exchange rate risk or commodity price risk and it does not currently trade any market sensitive instruments.

 

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Prior to the end of the period covered by this report, the Company was a development stage company and as such, the management, under the supervision and with the participation of its Chief Executive Officer and Executive Vice President of Finance were developing a system of disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) and performed an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of Company’s disclosure controls and procedures implemented at such time. Since the closing of the Acquisition, a system has been put in place that the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Executive Vice President of Finance, believe include disclosure controls and procedures that are effective.

 

There have been no changes since the closing of the Acquisition in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

 

ITEM 2. CHANGES IN SECURITIES, USE OF PROCEEDS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES

 

On June 18, 2004, in connection with and immediately prior to the closing of the Acquisition, the Company, pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1934, as amended, issued:

 

* 0.90 Class A Units to Coinvestment VoteCo for a total purchase price of $90 in cash;

 

* 0.60 Class A Units to VoteCo for a total purchase price of $60 in cash;

 

* 900,000 Class B Units to Co-Investment Partners for a total purchase price of $90,000,000 in cash; and

 

* 600,000 Class B Units to Holdings for an aggregate purchase price of $60,000,000 including the surrender of the Class A Units previously purchased by Holdings.

 

The Class B Units are not registered.

 

Pursuant to the Operating Agreement, Holdings and Co-Investment Partners (and their respective entities and affiliates) (the “Designated Class B Holders”) will have the right at any time to convert their Class B Units into an equal number of Class A Units, without cost. As long as the Designated Class B holders hold at least one Class B Unit, no other holder of Class B Units will have the right to convert its Class B Units into Class A Units without the prior written consent of the Designated Class B Holders holding a majority of the outstanding Class B units then held by the Designated Class B Holders.

 

If at any time no Designated Class B Holder holds Class B Units, then any holder of Class B Units will have the right to convert their Class B Units into an equal number of Class A Units without cost. The conversion rights are subject to compliance with all applicable gaming laws and other statutes, laws, rules and regulations. For so long as the Company is an entity qualifier with the Nevada Gaming Commission, Designated Class B Holders will only be permitted to convert Class B Units into Class A Units as part of or following an in-kind distribution of the entire interest held by that holder of all Membership Units and, to the extent required, only after being found qualified by the Nevada Gaming Commission.

 

The Company’s Registration Statement on Form 10 (File No. 000-50635) went effective on May 14, 2004. All registered Class A Units were sold on June 18, 2004. The Company raised approximately $150 million from the sale of Membership Units which it used (together with the Term Loan) to fund the Acquisition, to fund capital improvements expected to occur over the next four years and to provide working capital for the Company.

 

Professional fees and other expense related to the Acquisition were approximately $5 million. There were no direct or indirect payments to directors, officers, general partners or others related to the offering and sale of the membership units.
