 Sale of RBG
 
 On July 1, 2010, the Company and RBL entered into an agreement to sell 100% of the common stock of RBG to Catskills Gaming and Development, LLC (Catskill) for an aggregate consideration of $21,000,000 in cash and the assumption indebtedness of $6,300,000 payable as follows:
 
 (a)
$2,000,000 on or before the first anniversary of the date of the opening for business to the public of a gaming facility under a management agreement between Catskills, as manager, and the Seneca Nation of Indians,(b)
$2,000,000 on the second anniversary;(c)
$3,400,000 on the third anniversary;(d)
$3,400,000 on the fourth anniversary;(e)
$3,400,000 on the fifth anniversary;(f)
$3,400,000 on the sixth anniversary; and(g)
$3,400,000 on the seventh anniversary.
 
 As of November 10, 2010, the assignment of the Catskill project from RBG to Catskill has not been approved by the Seneca Nation of Indians. We can provide no assurance, that the assignment of the Catskill casino project from RBG to Catskill will be approved by the Seneca Nation of Indians.
 
 6
 
 On January 18, 2011, the Seneca Nation sent a letter to Mr. Flaum of Catskill indicating that any further discussions pertaining to gaming development in the Catskills region of New York is premature until the United States imposed moratorium on the acquisition of lands in trust for new Indian gaming facilities has been lifted.   The Company received a copy of this letter on January 19, 2011 from Mr. Flaum.  RBG has fifteen days to respond to this letter as it affects the sale of the company to Catskill and the carrying value of the assets currently on the balance sheet.
 
 RBG filed a notice of breach of the Management and Development Agreement with the Seneca Nation as per the agreement in response to the January 18th letter to Mr. Flaum of Catskill.

 The purchase price of Dayton of $219,154 has been allocated to deferred expenses and includes predevelopment expenses as of the date acquired. The Company plans to develop a casino in Dayton Nevada.

 As of June 30, 2009, the Dayton casino development project is on hold and the Company has written-off the deferred expenses of $233,960.
 
 India
 
 The purchase price of India of $139,782 has been allocated to investment in joint venture and includes all the investment of RBL as of the date acquired.

 2.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
 Basis of Presentation
 
 The accompanying interim unaudited consolidated financial statements and related notes have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and with the rules and regulations set forth in Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission for Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statement presentation. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods have been included. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements of Rotate Black, Inc. and Subsidiary together with Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2010. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results for a full year.
 
 Consolidated Financial Statements
 
 The accompanying consolidated financial statements include all of the accounts of the Company and the subsidiary.
 
 The Company records adjustments to noncontrolling interest for the allocable portion of income or loss that the noncontrollling interest holders are entitled based upon their portion of certain of the subsidiaries that they own. Distributions to holders of noncontrolling interests are adjusted to the respective noncontrolling interest holders’ balance.
 
 The Company suspends allocation of losses to noncontrolling interest holders when the noncontrolling interest balance for a particular noncontrolling interest holder is reduced to zero. Any excess loss above the noncontrolling interest holders’ balance is not charged to noncontrolling interest as the noncontrolling interest holders have no obligation to fund such losses.
 
 Investments in 50% or less owned entities without controlling influence by the Company are accounted for using the equity method.  Under the equity method, the Company recognizes its ownership share of the income and losses of the equity entity.
 
 All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
 
 Estimates
 
 7
 
 The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
 Reclassifications
 
 Certain amounts for prior years have been reclassified to conform to 2011 financial statement presentation.
 
 Financial Instruments
 
 The Company considers the carrying amounts of financial instruments, including cash, accounts payable and accrued expenses to approximate their fair values because of their relatively short maturities.
 
 Property and Equipment
 
 Property and equipment are recorded at cost and depreciated over their estimated useful lives using the straight-line method.
 
 Maintenance and repairs are charged to operating expenses as they are incurred. Improvements and betterments, which extend the lives of the assets are capitalized. The cost and accumulated depreciation of assets retired or otherwise disposed of are relieved from the appropriate accounts and any profit or loss on the sale or disposition of such assets is credited or charged to income.
  Contract Rights and Intangible Assets
 
 Contract rights and intangible assets are valued at cost and, if there is a finite life, will be amortized over their estimated useful lives of each asset as determined by management. Amortization will commence upon the placement of individual assets into service and the initial determination of the lives assigned to each. The Company expects this to occur for the Contract Right upon the effective date of the Development Agreement. As of December 31, 2010, all the Contract Rights had not commenced amortization.
 
 The Company will evaluate the carrying value of the intangible assets for impairment at least annually or upon the occurrence of an event, which may indicate that the carrying amount may be greater than its fair value. If impaired, the Company will write-down such impairment. In addition, the useful life of the intangible assets will be evaluated by management at least annually or upon the occurrence of an event which may indicate that the useful life may have been definitive and the Company would have commenced amortization over such useful life.
 
 Contract Rights were valued based management’s forecast of expected future net cash flows, with revenues based on projected revenues under the Development and Management Agreements.
 
 Revenue Recognition
 
 Revenue is recognized when evidence of an arrangement exists, pricing is fixed and determinable, collection is reasonably assured and delivery or performance of service has occurred.
  Development advances are the funds advanced by the Company for necessary costs in advance of the facility loan for the Seneca Nation (Note 7), which include expenses for legal, engineering and architectural fees and have been capitalized. A development fee of 2.5% of total development costs will be paid to the Company for services rendered pursuant to the Development Agreement and are in addition to the amounts advanced to cover the development costs.
  The Development Advances and the development fee are being deferred and will be billed upon the closing of the financing.
  Share-Based Compensation
  The Company recognizes compensation expense for all share-based payment awards made to employees, directors and others based on the estimated fair values on the date of the grant. Common stock equivalents are valued using the Black-Scholes Option-Pricing Model using the market price of our common stock on the date of valuation, an expected dividend yield of zero, the remaining period or maturity date of the common stock equivalent and the expected volatility of our common stock.
  8
 
 The Company had limited trading through March 31, 2010 and used recent sales of shares of common stock to value share-based compensation and other issuances of shares. Effective April 1, 2010, the Company began using the closing trading price.
  In accordance with EITF 96-18, the Company determines the fair value of the share-based compensation awards granted as either the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measureable. If the fair value of the equity instruments issued is used, it is measured using the stock price and other measurement assumptions as of the earlier of either the date at which a commitment for performance to earn the equity instrument is reached or the date the performance is complete.
 
 The Company recognizes compensation expense for stock awards with service conditions on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period and are included in operations.
 
 Loss per Common Share
 
 Basic loss per share is calculated using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted loss per share includes potentially dilutive securities such as outstanding options and warrants, using various methods such as the treasury stock or modified treasury stock method in the determination of dilutive shares outstanding during each period.
 
 For the six months ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, there were no significant potentially dilutive securities.
 
 Basic loss per share has been retroactively restated to reflect the reverse stock split (Note 14).
 
 Income Taxes
 
 Deferred income taxes have been provided for temporary differences between financial statement and income tax reporting under the liability method, using expected tax rates and laws that are expected to be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. A valuation allowance is provided when realization is not considered more likely than not.
 
 The Company’s policy is to classify income tax assessments, if any, for interest in interest expense and for penalties in general and administrative expenses.
 
 Leases
 Rent expense is recognized on the straight-line basis over the term of the lease.
 
 Consideration of Subsequent Events
 
 The Company evaluated all events and transactions occurring after December 31, 2010 through February 14, 2011 the date these financial statements were issued, to identify subsequent events, which may need to be recognized or non-recognizable events, which would need disclosure.  No recognizable events were identified. See Note 21 for non-recognizable events identified for disclosure.
 
 Recent Accounting Pronouncements.
 
 Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
 
 3. GOING CONCERN
 
 The financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has incurred losses since inception, resulting in an accumulated deficit of $4,781,828 and negative working capital of $6,310,089 as of December 31, 2010 and further losses are anticipated. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Its ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the ability of the Company to generate profitable operations in the future and/or to obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations arising from normal business operations when they come due. These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets or the amounts of and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event the Company cannot continue.
 
 The Company’s plan is to resolve this issue with the commencement of management fees from the Big Easy Management Agreement and other future sources of revenue. Until these occur in sufficient amounts, the Company plans to sell unregistered stock to investors and borrow from its principle stockholder to continue operations.

8,490Office equipment


23,2904,336,041Less accumulated depreciation


(167,279
)$
4,168,762
 
 On June 10, 2010, the Company purchased The Big Easy, a gaming vessel for an aggregate purchase price of $4,264,500, payable: (a) by issuance of a secured note payable to the seller of $2,975,000 (the Secured Note), (b) issuance of an unsecured note payable to the seller of $600,000 (Unsecured Note), fees of 414,500 and cash of $275,000. The Secured Note is collateralized by the gaming vessel and both notes are guaranteed by an officer of the Company.The Secured Note is payable on June 11, 2011 and bears interest at 14.5%, per annum, payable $35,000, per month, commencing June 11, 2010. The Unsecured Note bears interest at 14.5%, per annum, and is payable monthly, in an amount equal to 2% of the monthly gross gaming revenue generated from operations, as defined, until June 2012 when all principal and interest are due. As of September 17, 2010, both notes are in default and the interest rate was increased to 20%, per annum.
 
 As required by the borrowing facility of RBMS, upon closing, RBI will sell the gaming vessel to
 RBMS, at a purchase price equal to the carrying value on RBI. RBI is required to use the proceeds to pay off the Secured Note and interest thereon, to allow RBMS to collateralize the gaming vessel under the borrowing facility.
 
 For the six months ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, depreciation expense was $117,637 and $10,868, respectively.
 
 5.  INTANGIBLE ASSETS
 
 The intangible assets acquired under the Plan consisted of a license of patents, pending patents, trade secrets, know-how and other intangibles of Life O2 Oxygenated Water (Life O2), valued at $374,265, which were assigned to the Company under the Plan. The license grants the Company the exclusive worldwide (as defined), irrevocable, perpetual, royalty-free right to all the intangible assets for use in the production, marketing, distribution, sublicensing and sale of Life O2, subject to certain previously granted licenses, and only for human consumption. The Company has the right to assign the rights under the license to any corporate successor by way of merger, etc.

SFAS 141(R) also requires acquisition-related transaction expenses and restructuring costs be expensed as incurred rather than capitalized as a component of the business combination.
 
 Financial Staff Position (FSP) 141(R)-1, “Accounting for Assets Acquired and Liabilities Assumed in a Business Combination That Arise from Contingencies”, amended and clarified SFAS 141R to address application issues associated with initial recognition and measurement, subsequent measurement and accounting, and disclosure of assets and liabilities arising from contingencies in a business combination.
 
 In April, 2008, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards Staff Position 142-3, “Determination of the Useful Life of Intangible Assets” (“FSP 142-3”).

SFAS 160 also requires that a retained non-controlling interest upon the deconsolidation of a subsidiary be initially measured at its fair value.

In addition to gaming operations, RBMS also intends to build other non-gaming structures and amenities, such as two hotels, a parking garage, restaurants, retail space and other entertainment facilities, located on approximately five acres of real property currently under leased from Marine Life Incorporated and Mississippi Coast Marine, Inc. and approximately four and a half acres of real property currently under lease with the Gulfport Redevelopment Commission (Gaming Site). The Project is expected to be completed in two phases. In the first phase, gaming activities shall be conducted on a five deck, 238 feet long and 62 feet wide luxury gaming vessel docked adjacent to the Gaming Site. The luxury gaming vessel is expected to have approximately 26,000 square-feet of gaming space, with 875 slot machines and 18 table games, including blackjack, craps, roulette and baccarat. The gaming vessel is expected to include four bars and three distinctive and diverse dining options, including a 30-seat 24-hour snack bar, a 110-seat restaurant, and 400-seat BBQ. The 100 room two to three diamond hotel is expected to include a 100-seat restaurant and lounge.  The hotel is expected to have a large porte-cochere, which will permit access to the luxury gaming vessel.  Phase I is expected to include a surface parking lot that will accommodate approximately 600 vehicles.  We estimate hiring 500 employees to operate the Gaming Vessel and Hotel.SeeAcquisition of the Luxury Gaming Vessel below.





We estimate the Gulfport project will cost approximately $40 million.  We have engaged Citadel Securities, LLC and Poydras Street Capital, LLC to help us raise approximately $30 million in the aggregate.  The balance of the Gulfport Project cost of $10 million is expected to come from vendor financing. As of December 31, 2010, the Company and its Chairman and CEO have invested $5 million in cash and personal guarantees on the Gulfport project. We can provide no assurance that we will be able to obtain all the necessary financing to develop and construct the Gulfport project.





Based on the leases, we are required to further invest in the Gaming Site and construct a permanent land based casino by the end of 2015. Our ability to complete the permanent land based casino will depend on a number of factors including the economic environment on the Gulf Coast to support a larger permanent land based casino and our ability to obtain financing on terms that make further expansion economically feasible.





Acquisition of the Luxury Gaming Vessel.In June 2010, we purchased the luxury gaming vessel “The Big Easy” for $3,250,000.  We paid $600,000 in cash, issued a secured promissory note to the Seller of $2,975,000 and an unsecured promissory note to the Seller of $600,000. The gaming vessel was moved in July 2010 from its mooring in St. Petersburg, Florida to Tampa Bay, Florida where it is being repainted and fit out to make it ready for our casino operation. When completed, the luxury gaming vessel will be moved to the Bert Jones Yacht Basin in Gulfport, Mississippi.




The Secured Note is payable in full on June 11, 2011 and bears interest at 14.5% per annum.  The Secured Note is a non-amortizing interest only note.  Monthly interest payments of $35,000 commenced on June 11, 2010.    The Unsecured Note also bears interest at 14.5% per annum and is non-amortizing and interest only.  The maturity date of the Unsecured Note is June 11, 2012.   Interest payments commence thirty days after the opening of the gaming operations on the luxury gaming vessel. Currently, we are in default on both Notes.  See Part II, Item 3.




18





As of December 31, 2010, we have invested over $1,500,000 of renovations and other improvements to the gaming vessel. A key safety aspect of the luxury gaming vessel is that it is a seaworthy ship with its own engines, captain and crew. Therefore, it can be moved to a safe location in event of another severe hurricane threat unlike a permanently moored barge, which could pose a hazard to surrounding property in the event of a powerful hurricane like Hurricane Katrina.  Our ability to relocate the gaming vessel is dependent on a number of factors, some of which are outside our control.




Immediate Regulatory Approvals needed to proceed with the Gulfport Project.  Now that RBMS has leased the acreage necessary under the City of Gulfport ordinance for a gaming eligible site, we have submitted a completed gaming site approval application to the Mississippi Gaming Commission for approval.  Gaming site approval is the process by which, following a recommendation from the Mississippi Gaming Commission (MGC) staff, a proposed operator of a gaming development site obtains a formal approval from MGC is accordance with the Mississippi Gaming Control Act and the regulations thereunder.  On November 18, 2010, the MGC has approved for RBMS to submit its application to the MGC.





Gulfport Management Agreement.On October 27, 2010, RBMS and the Company, as manager, entered into a Management Agreement, effective as of April 1, 2010.  The Management Agreement is for ninety-nine (99) years and provides for management fees equal to $200,000 per month payable on the first day of each month in advance until commencement of the gaming operations. Upon commencement of the gaming operations the fee will increase to $250,000 per month. Upon achieving certain earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, the fee will increase to $300,000 per month.





Catskill, NY.The Company has cease operations to develop, construct, manage and operate a casino, hotel and entertainment complex in the Catskill, New York region with the Seneca Nation of Indians, as a result of our proposed sale of RBG to Catskill.

On January 18, 2011, the Seneca Nation sent a letter to Mr. Flaum of Catskill indicating that any further discussions pertaining to gaming development in the Catskills region of New York is premature until the United States imposed moratorium on the acquisition of lands in trust for new Indian gaming facilities has been lifted.   The Company received a copy of this letter on January 19, 2011 from Mr. Flaum.  RBG has fifteen days to respond to this letter as it affects the sale of the company to Catskill and the carrying value of the assets currently on the balance sheet.





RBG filed a notice of breach of the Management and Development Agreement with the Seneca Nation as per the agreement in response to the January 18th letter to Mr. Flaum of Catskill.
