PART I



|ITEM 1. | BUSINESS
|------- | --------



General



The Sands
Regent and subsidiaries (the Company, we and our) operate casinos and tourist-based facilities through our wholly-owned subsidiaries: Zante, Inc., which owns and operates the Sands Regency Casino Hotel
(Sands) in downtown Reno, Nevada; Last Chance, Inc., which operates the Gold Ranch Casino and RV Resort (Gold Ranch) in Verdi, Nevada; and Plantation Investments, Inc., which owns and operates Rail City Casino (Rail
City) in Sparks, Nevada. On March 31, 2005, the Company formed Dayton Gaming, Inc. for the purpose of acquiring the assets of the Depot Casino and Red Hawk Sports Bar (together, the Depot) in Dayton, Nevada. On
September 1, 2005, the Company completed the acquisition.



Each subsidiary represents a separate geographical location and is generally managed separately as a segment. Operating decisions are generally made at the subsidiary level. Certain segment information is presented in the Notes to the
Consolidated Financial Statements. The general business strategy of the Company is outlined in its mission statement, To create an affordable experience in a casual and comfortable setting with efficient service and friendly employees who help
create a fun and hassle-free time, every time. The Company was incorporated in Nevada in 1965 and became publicly-owned in 1985.



The Sands has approximately 29,000 square feet of gaming space and a full selection of gaming alternatives, including 544 slot machines, 17 table games,
keno, bingo, live poker and a sportsbook operated by an independent party. Additionally, the Sands resort complex has 833 hotel rooms, including 29 suites, a health spa, and a large outdoor swimming pool. Dining options at the Sands include Tony
Romas, Famous for Ribs, restaurant; Cabana Café, a coffee house/deli-style restaurant; and Antonias, Very Italian Buffet. The property also has a Mels, the Original, diner style restaurant, and an Arbys restaurant,
both which are franchises operated by third- parties. The facility also includes an entertainment cabaret, three cocktail lounges, a comedy club and approximately 12,000 square feet of convention and meeting space. Third-parties lease space from the
Sands and operate a wedding chapel, a bicycle and ski rental shop, and a beauty shop. The Sands facility contains multiple parking areas, including a parking garage, with a total combined capacity for approximately 1,100 vehicles. A substantial
portion of the Sands business, particularly our hotel customer base, is arranged through travel groups, both air and motor coach wholesalers, which offer economy rates, and are primarily from Western Canada, the Pacific Northwest and Northern
California. Additionally, the Company has a slot route, which has slot machines in 13 locations in the greater Reno area.



Gold Ranch offers approximately 243 slot machines in an 8,370 square foot casino, a 24-hour family-style restaurant, a Jack-in-the-Box restaurant, which
is a company owned franchise, a bar, a 105-space RV park, a California lottery station, an ARCO gas station, and a convenience store. Gold Ranchs guests include both tourists and local residents with local residents generating over half
of the propertys casino patronage. Gold Ranch attempts to attract local residents through mid-week promotions geared toward enhancing local play mainly through lottery, casino, and restaurant programs. Tourist programs emphasize the RV park,
casino and restaurant cross-promotions. Gold Ranch attempts to attract as much traffic as possible off Interstate 80, the major Nevada/California thoroughfare.



On May 1, 2004, the Company acquired Rail City in Sparks, Nevada. Rail City has approximately 16,600 square feet of gaming space housing 650
slots, 6 table games, keno, a sportsbook operated by an independent party, a 24-hour family-style restaurant and a bar. Substantially all of Rail Citys customer base comes from northern Nevada and a majority of its customers reside in close
proximity to the casino.



The Companys operations are
conducted 24 hours per day, seven days per week. The primary source of revenue and income to the Company is its gaming activities, although the hotel, RV park, bars, shops, restaurants, convenience store, gas station and other services are important
in supplementing its gaming activities

revenue. The Companys overall operating and marketing philosophy emphasizes in-house and citywide special events, generous promotions, highly
competitive pricing, and liberal gaming odds. A great deal of emphasis is placed on marketing to local patrons. The Company offers, on a very limited basis, complimentary hotel accommodations to select customers, no third-party group arrangements
known as junkets are conducted, and in general, the Company does not extend credit to its gaming clientele.



Marketing



Over the past year gaming operators in the Reno market have continued to experience the same market conditions that existed in the previous year, a
declining tourist market that continues to shrink as Native American gaming matures and becomes established as a viable entertainment alternative in many of our feeder markets. This is in contrast to a robust segment, patrons residing in close
proximity, or locals. This market continues to flourish in northern Nevada with the rapidly growing population.



SANDS REGENCY.    At the Sands, we continue to attract our current share of the declining tourist market while growing our share of
the locals segment. We accomplish this through aggressive promotions and marketing aimed at niches we have developed over the past several years, (i) locals, (ii) special event groups, and (iii) value-minded out-of-market visitors.



Marketing to our locals continues to be one of the
cornerstones of our casino marketing strategy, and we continue to see growth and additional opportunity from this segment. A mix of database marketing and direct mail, compelling promotions, competitive players club benefits, and special
events geared specifically for locals are important to retain and attract locals.



In addition, we work closely and cooperate with our sister properties, sharing successes among each other, and developing the relationships and infrastructure that will create synergy and allow us to compete more
effectively in the coming year.



Our advertising strategy in
the local market is to focus more effort on direct mail programs that target locals who are not currently customers of the Sands. We focus on zip codes where our most loyal customers reside. This allows us to create a more targeted strategy while
using a medium (direct mail and database marketing) in which the results are more measurable than traditional mediums like television, radio, and newspaper advertising.



Special interest groups such as bowlers, cribbage players, shuffleboard players, and pool players continue to be a staple
for the Sands. We maintain a full schedule of special events and tournaments throughout the year.



The Sands appeals to the budget conscious traveler by offering large, remodeled hotel rooms at reasonable prices. We feel our hotel rooms are a superior
value to other properties. Furthermore, we feel our food outlets (Tony Romas, Mels Diner) are competitively priced. We believe our gaming product now meets and often exceeds the expectations of this market segment. We offer a large
variety of games with some of the best odds in the Reno market. Over 80% of our slot machines are ticket-in ticket out compatible. We are also one of only two major casinos in the area to offer bingo. In the past year we have undertaken a $3.0
million casino floor remodel that will give us a look and feel of our more expensively priced competitors.



GOLD RANCH.    The key to success at Gold Ranch is our ability to capture market share from two distinct customer segments 
Verdi/Northwest Reno/Truckee residents and tourists traveling on Interstate 80, the main thorough-faire between northern Nevada and northern California. We continue to focus our marketing efforts on these two groups while applying the knowledge we
have gained through our experiences since acquiring Gold Ranch. The installation of a slot marketing system and cashless slot machine ticket-in, ticket-out technology in the spring of 2005 has allowed us to more effectively market to our
target customers.



Key elements of Gold Ranch generating
incremental business from our key market segments are:



| |  |  | Customer acquisition though the use of direct mail programs aimed at generating visitation through time sensitive offers.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  |  | Outdoor and other signage used to lure customers traveling on Interstate 80. Our ability to offer competitive pricing at our gas pumps is critical.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Increasing customer awareness and occupancy at the RV Resort.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------



We continue to use promotions and special events to generate mid-week local business. These promotions, in conjunction with the direct mail programs,
continue as a key component of our marketing efforts. We have established a numbers of special events, which we feel are successful, and we have new special events and promotions planned for the coming year. The key is to continue to build the
database so that we are able to reach significantly more potential customers in the key locals market



RAIL CITY CASINO.    At Rail City Casino, a strong brand identity, frequent promotions, and a strong commitment to our most profitable
customers have been our primary objectives with respect to our marketing programs. Building stronger loyalty and retention have also become more important as more casinos are responding to the decrease in Reno area tourism by increasingly targeting
and marketing to local customers. The Rail City marketing plan include promotions and customer loyalty programs such as:



| |  |  | Customer Appreciation
| | - |  | ---------------------



Rail City shows its appreciation for its customers through birthday comps and personal attention by the City Express Ambassadors. The Ambassadors continue
to provide a family-type atmosphere for our guests. They strive to provide personalized service and attention to each guest.



| |  |  | Reward Loyal Customers
| | - |  | ----------------------



Rail City promotions focus on rewarding our loyal players club members through targeting the Top 100 and Top 500 guests, as well as reaching out to
those players who prefer to remain untracked.



| |  |  | Attract New Customers
| | - |  | ---------------------



Rail City Casino utilizes television, newspaper, radio and print to attract new customers. Rail City also uses more database marketing and direct mail to
target new customers, or existing customers who have not yet become loyal to Rail City.



DAYTON DEPOT.     Our newest properties, the Dayton Depot and Red Hawk Sports Bar were acquired on September 1, 2005. These properties are located in the rapidly growing community of Dayton,
Nevada. The Dayton Depot is located on busy Highway 50 and fits our ideal profile for a locals casino. The Dayton Depot will undergo a $2.0 million remodel in the next twelve months. We will introduce some of the more successful locals-focused
marketing programs from Rail City, Gold Ranch, and the Sands.



Competition



Competition among casinos in the Reno/Sparks market is
intense. The expansion and maturation of Native American gaming in northern California, the Pacific Northwest, and British Columbia has had and will continue to have an adverse impact on total gaming revenues of the greater Reno area. Over the last
few years, existing Native American casinos in northern California have undergone significant expansions and now offer most of the amenities that casinos in Reno offer, including big name entertainment and hotel rooms. In addition, Thunder Valley,
on the Interstate-80 corridor in California has grown to be one of the countrys busiest and most profitable casinos. More Native American casinos are planned in northern California and many are partnering with existing gaming companies that
have financial resources to promote their facilities.



With our
purchase of Rail City in May 2004, and the recent purchase of the Dayton Depot, we have lessened our dependence on tourism. However, many of the 17 major casinos and hotel/casinos in the Reno area are stepping up efforts to compete for the local
customer due primarily to the decrease in tourism caused by Native American casinos. Many of our direct competitors in the Reno market have greater financial and other resources than we do.

At June 30, 2005, the Company employed 683 people at the Sands, 106 people at Gold Ranch, 340 people at Rail City, and 8 people at the corporate

Regulation and LicensingNevada Gaming



The ownership and operation of casino gaming facilities in Nevada are
subject to (i) The Nevada Gaming Control Act and the regulations promulgated thereunder (collectively, Nevada Act); and (ii) various local regulation. The Companys gaming operations are subject to the licensing and
regulatory control of the Nevada Gaming Commission (Nevada Commission), the Nevada State Gaming Control Board (Nevada Board) and the City of Reno, for the Sands and Gold Ranch, and the City of Sparks for Rail City (together,
the Nevada Gaming Authorities).



The laws,
regulations and supervisory procedures of the Nevada Gaming Authorities are based upon declarations of public policy which are concerned with, among other things:



| |  |  | the prevention of unsavory or unsuitable persons from having a direct or indirect involvement with gaming at any time or in any capacity;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the establishment and maintenance of responsible accounting practices and procedures;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the maintenance of effective controls over the financial practices of licensees, including the establishment of minimum procedures for internal fiscal affairs and the safeguarding
of assets and revenues, providing reliable record keeping and requiring the filing of periodic reports with the Nevada Gaming Authorities;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the prevention of cheating and fraudulent practices; and
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | to provide a source of state and local revenues through taxation and licensing fees.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Change in such laws, regulations and procedures could have an adverse effect on the Companys gaming operations.



The Sands Regent subsidiaries Zante, Inc., Last Chance, Inc.,
Plantation Investments, Inc. and Dayton Gaming, Inc. are required to be licensed by the Nevada Gaming Authorities. The gaming licenses require a periodic payment of fees and taxes and are not transferable. The Company is registered by the Nevada
Commission as a publicly traded corporation (Registered Corporation) and as such, it is required periodically to submit detailed financial and operating reports to the Nevada Commission and furnish any other information, which the Nevada
Commission may require. No person may become a major stockholder of, or receive any percentage of profits from the Company without first obtaining licenses and approvals from the Nevada Gaming Authorities. The Company has obtained from the Nevada
Gaming Authorities the various registrations, approvals, permits and licenses required in order to engage in gaming activities in Nevada.



The Nevada Gaming Authorities may investigate any individual who has a material relationship to, or material involvement with, the Company or its
subsidiaries, in order to determine whether such individual is suitable or should be licensed as a business associate of a gaming licensee. Officers, directors and certain key employees of the Company or its subsidiaries must file applications with
the Nevada Gaming Authorities and may be required to be licensed or found suitable by the Nevada Gaming Authorities. The Nevada Gaming Authorities may deny an application for licensing for any cause, which they deem reasonable. A finding of
suitability is comparable to licensing, and both require submission of detailed personal and financial information followed by a thorough investigation. The applicant for licensing or a finding of suitability must pay all the costs

of the investigation. Changes in licensed positions must be reported to the Nevada Gaming Authorities and in addition to their authority to deny an
application for a finding of suitability or licensure, the Nevada Gaming Authorities have jurisdiction to disapprove a change in a corporate position.



If the Nevada Gaming Authorities were to find an officer, director or key employee unsuitable for licensing or unsuitable to continue having a
relationship with the Company or its subsidiaries, the Company would have to sever all relationships with such person. In addition, the Nevada Commission may require the Company and its subsidiaries to terminate the employment of any person who
refuses to file appropriate applications. Determinations of suitability or of questions pertaining to licensing are not subject to judicial review in Nevada.



The Company and its subsidiaries are required to submit detailed financial and operating reports to the Nevada Commission. Substantially all material
loans, leases, sales of securities and similar financing transactions must be reported to, or approved by, the Nevada Commission.



If it were determined that the Nevada Act was violated by the Company or its subsidiaries, the gaming licenses it holds could be limited, conditioned,
suspended or revoked, subject to compliance with certain statutory and regulatory procedures. In addition, the Company, its subsidiaries, and the persons involved could be subject to substantial fines for each separate violation of the Nevada Act at
the direction of the Nevada Commission. Further, a supervisor could be appointed by the Nevada Commission to operate the Companys gaming properties and, under certain circumstances, earnings generated during the supervisors appointment
(except for the reasonable rental value of the Companys gaming properties) could be forfeited to the State of Nevada. Limitation, conditioning or suspension of any gaming license or the appointment of a supervisor could (and revocation of any
gaming license would) materially adversely affect the Companys gaming operations.



Any beneficial holder of the Companys voting securities, regardless of the number of shares owned, may be required to file an application, be investigated, and have his suitability as a beneficial holder of the
Companys voting securities determined if the Nevada Commission has reason to believe that such ownership would otherwise be inconsistent with the declared policies of the State of Nevada. The applicant must pay all costs of investigation
incurred by the Nevada Gaming Authorities in conducting any such investigation.



The Nevada Act requires any person who acquires more than 5% of the Companys voting securities to report the acquisition to the Nevada Commission. The Nevada Act requires that beneficial owners of more than 10%
of the Companys voting securities apply to the Nevada Commission for a finding of suitability within thirty days after the Chairman of the Nevada Board mails the written notice requiring such filing. Under certain circumstances, an
institutional investor, as defined in the Nevada Act, which acquires more than 10%, but not more than 15%, of the Companys voting securities may apply to the Nevada Commission for a waiver of such finding of suitability if such
institutional investor holds the voting securities for investment purposes only. An institutional investor shall not be deemed to hold voting securities for investment purposes unless the voting securities were acquired and are held in the ordinary
course of business as an institutional investor and not for the purpose of causing, directly or indirectly, the election of a majority of the members of the board of the directors of the Company, any change in the Companys corporate charter,
bylaws, management, policies or operations of the Company, or any of its gaming affiliates, or any other action which the Nevada Commission finds to be inconsistent with holding the Companys voting securities for investment purposes only.
Activities, which are not deemed to be inconsistent with holding voting securities for investment purposes include:



| |  |  | voting on all matters voted on by shareholders;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------



| |  |  | making financial and other inquiries of management of the type normally made by securities analysts for informational purposes and not to cause a change in its management, policies
or operations; and
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | other activities as the Nevada Commission may determine to be consistent with investment intent.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



If the beneficial holder of voting securities who must be found suitable is a corporation, partnership or trust, it must
submit detailed business and financial information including a list of beneficial owners. The applicant is required to pay all costs of investigation.

##### Table of Contents

Any person who fails or refuses to apply for a finding of suitability or a license within thirty days
after being ordered to do so by the Nevada Commission or the Chairman of the Nevada Board, may be found unsuitable. The same restrictions apply to a record owner if the record owner, after request, fails to identify the beneficial owner. Any
stockholder found unsuitable and who holds, directly or indirectly, any beneficial ownership of the common stock of the Company beyond such period of time as may be prescribed by the Nevada Commission may be guilty of a criminal offense. The Company
is subject to disciplinary action if, after it receives notice that a person is unsuitable to be a stockholder or to have any other relationship with the Company or its subsidiaries if the Company:



| |  |  | pays that person any dividend or interest upon voting securities of the Company,
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | allows that person to exercise, directly or indirectly, any voting right conferred through securities held by that person,
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | pays remuneration in any form to that person for services rendered or otherwise, or
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | fails to pursue all lawful efforts to require such unsuitable person to relinquish his voting securities for cash at fair market value.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



The Nevada Commission may, in its discretion, require the holder of any debt
security of the Company to file applications, be investigated and be found suitable to own the debt security of the Company. If the Nevada Commission determines that a person is unsuitable to own such security, then pursuant to the Nevada Act, the
Company can be sanctioned, including the loss of its approvals, if without the prior approval of the Nevada Commission, it:



| |  |  | pays to the unsuitable person any dividend, interest, or any distribution whatsoever;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | recognizes any voting right by such unsuitable person in connection with such securities;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | pays the unsuitable person remuneration in any form; or
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | makes any payment to the unsuitable person by way of principal, redemption, conversion, exchange, liquidation or similar transaction.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



The Company is required to maintain a current stock ledger in Nevada, which
may be examined by the Nevada Gaming Authorities at any time. If any securities are held in trust by an agent or by a nominee, the record holder may be required to disclose the identity of the beneficial owner to the Nevada Gaming Authorities. A
failure to make such disclosure may be grounds for finding the record holder unsuitable. The Company is also required to render maximum assistance in determining the identity of the beneficial owner. The Nevada Commission has the power to require
the Companys stock certificates to bear a legend indicating that the securities are subject to the Nevada Act. The Companys stock certificates do bear such a legend.



The Company may not make a public offering of its securities without the prior approval of the Nevada Commission if the
securities or the proceeds therefrom are intended to be used to construct, acquire or finance gaming facilities in Nevada, or to retire or extend obligations incurred for such purposes. Such approval, if given, does not constitute a finding,
recommendation or approval by the Nevada Commission or the Nevada Board as to the accuracy or adequacy of the prospectus or the investment merits of the securities. Any representation to the contrary is unlawful.



Changes in control of the Company through merger, consolidation, stock or
asset acquisitions, management or consulting agreements, or any act or conduct by a person whereby he obtains control, may not occur without the prior approval of the Nevada Commission. Entities seeking to acquire control of the Company must satisfy
the Nevada Board and Nevada Commission in a variety of stringent standards prior to assuming control of the Company. The Nevada Commission may also require controlling stockholders, officers, directors and other persons having a material
relationship or involvement with the entity proposing to acquire control, to be investigated and licensed as part of the approval process relating to the transaction.

The Nevada legislature has declared that some corporate acquisitions opposed by management, repurchases
of voting securities and corporate defense tactics affecting Nevada gaming licensees, and registered gaming corporations that are affiliated with those operations, may be injurious to stable and productive corporate gaming. The Nevada Commission has
established a regulatory scheme to ameliorate the potentially adverse effects of these business practices upon Nevadas gaming industry and to further Nevadas policy to:



| |  |  | assure the financial stability of corporate gaming operators and their affiliates;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | preserve the beneficial aspects of conducting business in the corporate form; and
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | promote a neutral environment for the orderly governance of corporate affairs.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Approvals are, in certain circumstances, required from the Nevada Commission before the Company can make exceptional repurchases of voting securities
above the current market price thereof and before a corporate acquisition opposed by management can be consummated. The Nevada Act also requires prior approval of a plan of recapitalization proposed by the Companys Board of Directors in
response to a tender offer made directly to the Companys shareholders for the purposes of acquiring control of the Company.



License fees and taxes, computed in various ways depending on the type of gaming or activity involved, are payable to the State of Nevada and to the
counties and cities in which the Nevada licensees respective operations are conducted. Depending upon the particular fee or tax involved, these fees and taxes are payable either monthly, quarterly or annually and are based upon either a
percentage of the gross revenues received or the number of games or gaming devices operated.



A casino entertainment tax is also paid by casino operations where entertainment is furnished in connection with the selling of food or beverages. Nevada licensees that hold a license as an operator of a slot route,
or a manufacturers or distributors license, also pay certain fees and taxes to the State of Nevada.



Any person who is licensed, required to be licensed, required to be registered, or is under common control with such persons (collectively,
Licensees), and who has become involved in a gaming venture outside of Nevada is required to deposit with the Nevada Board, and thereafter maintain, a revolving fund in the amount of $10,000 to pay the expenses of investigation of the
Nevada Board of their participation in such foreign gaming. The revolving fund is subject to increase or decrease in the discretion of the Nevada Commission. Thereafter, Licensees are required to comply with certain reporting requirements imposed by
the Nevada Act. Licensees are also subject to disciplinary action by the Nevada Commission if it knowingly violates any laws of the foreign jurisdiction pertaining to the foreign gaming operation, fails to conduct the foreign gaming operation in
accordance with the standards of honesty and integrity required of Nevada gaming operations, engages in activities that are harmful to the State of Nevada or its ability to collect gaming taxes and fees, or employs a person in the foreign operation
who has been denied a license or finding of suitability in Nevada on the ground of personal unsuitability.



Regulation and LicensingCalifornia Lottery



The Company, through Last Chance, operates a California Lottery outlet at the Gold Ranch facility. As such, the Company is subject to certain regulatory
and licensing requirements of the California State Lottery Commission (CSLC).



Given the on-line nature of the California Lottery operating system, the licensing requirements, while prudent, are less rigorous than the Nevada Gaming Commission. CSLC may terminate the Companys lottery
contract at will upon thirty days written notice, or less if deemed appropriate. Reasons for termination include, but are not limited to, failure to follow CSLC policy, failure to meet financial obligations owed to CSLC, failure to meet
CSLCs established sales requirements, failure to maintain CSLCs equipment and property in a condition acceptable to CSLC, a change in CSLCs operation and/or administration of the lottery, and the lottery

the security, integrity, honesty and/or fairness of the operation and/or administration of CSLS and/or any lottery game.



Regulation and LicensingAlcoholic Beverages



The sale of alcoholic beverages by the Company is subject to supervision, control and regulation by city and county governments, which issue licenses
deemed to be nontransferable, revocable privileges, and which has full power to limit, condition, suspend or revoke such licenses. The Company is presently licensed to sell alcoholic beverages at all of its properties. Any adverse regulatory act
with respect to this license could have an adverse effect upon the operations of the Company.

On June 1, 2002, the Company acquired Gold Ranch. Gold Ranchs gaming options include 243 slot
machines, a California lottery station on Gold Ranchs property which straddles the Nevada/California border, and a sportsbook operated by a third-party. Additionally, Gold Ranch has a 105 space RV park, 2 restaurants (a 24-hour family style
restaurant and a Jack-in-the-Box chain restaurant), and an ARCO gas station and convenience store.



On May 1, 2004, the Company acquired Rail City in Sparks, Nevada. Rail City has approximately 16,600 square feet of gaming space housing 650 slots, 6
table games, keno, a sportsbook operated by a third-party, and a 24-hour family-style restaurant.



On March 31, 2005, the Company formed Dayton Gaming, Inc. for the purpose of acquiring the assets of the Depot Casino and Red Hawk Sports Bar
(together, the Dayton Depot) in Dayton, Nevada. On September 1, 2005, the Company completed the acquisition and, accordingly, results of operations for the Depot will first be included in the Companys consolidated financial
statements in the year ended June 30, 2006 (fiscal 2006).



Critical
Accounting Policies and Estimates



The Company prepares
its consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Certain of our policies, including the estimated lives assigned to long-lived assets, asset impairment, goodwill and
other intangibles impairment, the adequacy of our allowance for uncollectible receivables, self insurance reserves, litigation reserves, and customer rewards program liability, require that we apply significant judgment in defining the appropriate
assumptions for calculating financial estimates. By their nature, these judgments are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty. The Companys judgments are based on historical experience, terms of existing contracts, observations of trends
in the industry, information provided by customers and information available from other outside sources, as appropriate. There can be no assurance that actual results will not differ from our estimates.



Long-lived assets



Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation.
Judgments are made in determining if or when assets have been impaired and the estimated useful lives of assets. The accuracy of these estimates affects the depreciation expense recognized in our results of operations. The carrying values of our
long-lived assets are reviewed when events or changes in circumstance indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Management assesses the possibility of an asset impairment by using estimates of future cash flows based on
current operating results, trends, prospects, demand, competition, and other economic factors.



Goodwill and other intangible assets



The provisions of SFAS No. 142 require us to review goodwill and other intangibles annually for impairment. We completed our annual review and determined that there is no impairment of goodwill or intangible
assets at June 30, 2005. The annual evaluation, for which we retained an independent consultant, requires a detailed review of current operating results, as well as analytical projections and cash flow forecasts.



Allowance for doubtful accounts



We allow for an estimated amount of receivables that may not be collected.
We estimate our allowance using a specific formula applied to aged receivables. Historical experience is considered, as are customer relationships. Receivables or notes receivable, which are outside the normal course of business are addressed on an
individual basis. (Refer to Note 4, consolidated financial statements.)



Self-insurance accrued liability



The Company
is self-insured for various levels of general liability, workers compensation, and employee dental insurance. Insurance claims and reserves include estimated settlements for known claims, as well as



12

##### Table of Contents

accrued estimates of incurred but not reported claims. In estimating these costs, we make judgments based on historical claims experience, accident
frequency, severity, and the experience of industry agents, administrators, and others, as appropriate.



Litigation accrued liability



We assess our exposure to loss contingencies including legal matters and provide for an exposure if the potential loss is judged to be probable and
estimable. If the actual loss from a contingency differs from managements estimate, operating results could be impacted. We carry general liability insurance with umbrella coverage and other insurance, subject to an applicable deductible, to
protect it against large losses.



Customer reward program
liability



The Company has in place a rewards system based
on customer gaming play. Rewards are redeemable for complimentary hotel rooms, food, beverage, merchandise, and in many cases, cash. A significant amount of rewards earned by customers expire without redemption. We estimate the percentage of rewards
earned that will eventually be redeemed based on experience and various special circumstances.



Results of OperationsComparison of fiscal 2005 to fiscal 2004



CONSOLIDATED RESULTS.    For the year ended June 30, 2005, the Companys net operating revenues were $81.1 million compared
to $62.3 million for the year ended June 30, 2004, a 30.1% increase. Without Rail City, which had only two months of operations under the Company in fiscal 2004, consolidated net revenues would have decreased 3.0%, from $58.2 million in fiscal
2004 to $56.4 million in fiscal 2005.



Our consolidated income
from operations was $7.8 million for the year ended June 30, 2005, compared to $4.9 million for the year ended June 30, 2004. Without Rail City, the Companys consolidated income from operations was $1.4 million in fiscal 2005,
compared to $3.9 million in fiscal 2004.



The Companys
consolidated net income was $3.8 million, or $.59 per share ($.55 diluted), for the year ended June 30, 2005, compared to $6.9 million, or $1.32 per share ($1.24 diluted) for the year ended June 30, 2004. The fiscal 2004 results had $4.4
million of non-taxable, non-operating gains from the final settlement of the Companys 1998 sale of the Copa Casino in Gulfport, Mississippi. Without the non-operating gains in the prior year, the consolidated net income would have been $2.5
million, or $.48 per share ($.45 diluted).



SANDS REGENCY HOTEL
AND CASINO.    Net revenues for the Sands decreased $2.3 million, from $34.4 million for the year ended June 30, 2004 to $32.1 million in the year ended June 30, 2005, a reduction of 6.6%, as the downtown Reno property
endured the one-out-of-every-three year absence of a major four to five month long bowling tournament. Because of its proximity to the downtown Reno National Bowling Stadium, the Sands is the Company property most affected by the absence of a major
bowling event. Promotional allowances are discounted from gross revenues to arrive at net revenues, and were $147,000, or 4.2%, higher in fiscal 2005 than in the prior fiscal year. This was due to aggressive special promotions, particularly centered
around complimentary lodging, as the Sands sought to mitigate the effect of a major bowling tournament. Further, the Sands propertys performance was negatively impacted by intermittent street disruptions due to the railroad trench (ReTRAC
project), the disruptions of a full scale casino remodel, high fuel prices, and a series of storms which negatively impacted travel and tourism from late December 2004 through early February 2005.



Gaming revenues for the Sands decreased from $22.3 million in fiscal 2004 to
$21.2 million in fiscal 2005, a reduction of 5.2%. Revenue from slot machines was the gaming center least impacted by the absence of a major bowling tournament, but slot revenue still declined 2.9% year-over-year. A large component of total slot
machine revenue at the Sands is generated by patrons from the greater Reno area and this segment was supported through direct mail, advertising and special promotions, particularly in the winter months. Table games revenue declined $448,000, or
11.6%, from fiscal 2004, as table games were popular with the men bowlers in the prior year. Part

of the decrease in gaming revenues, $205,000, was due to the Sands outsourcing its Keno operations to a third-party for seven months during fiscal 2005.
Offsetting the impact of outsourcing Keno, was net revenues of $236,000 from live-poker, which the Sands introduced to the casino floor in fiscal 2005. Bingo volume, as measured by paper played declined less than one percent, however,
the Sands offered more promotional discounts due to competitive factors and bingo revenue or win declined 11.0%, year-over-year. One of the three bingo rooms in the greater Reno area closed in fiscal 2005, and the Sands offered
promotional pricing to gain those customers patronage.



Lodging
revenues for the Sands decreased from $9.0 million in the year ended June 30, 2004, to $8.5 million in fiscal 2005, a reduction of 6.4%. The Sands average room rate was $33.50 for fiscal 2005 versus $33.90 for fiscal 2004, which accounted
for approximately $103,000 of the lodging revenue decline. However, the primary reason for the lodging revenue decrease was 14,000, or 5.3%, fewer rooms occupied in fiscal 2005 than in fiscal 2004. Food and beverage revenues decreased 4.8%, less
than the Sands revenues as a whole, due to the introduction of Lucky Joker Poker, which offered promotional food specials and discounts in the restaurants.



Income from operations decreased $1.6 million in fiscal 2005 compared to fiscal 2004, or 44.2%, due primarily to the
decrease in net revenues. The expense margin for the Sands worsened from 89.1% to 93.5%, as revenues decreased 6.6% and operating expenses declined just 2.1%. The lower customer volume levels did not allow for the economies of scale experienced in
the prior year. However, general and administrative expenses did decline $440,000, or 7.3%. Approximately $226,000 of the decline was due to a reduction in accrued management bonus as the property failed to achieve its internal operating targets. An
additional $82,000 of savings was due to a decrease in legal fees, primarily in connection with its ReTRAC (City of Reno train trench project) litigation. The Sands now believes its differences with ReTRAC will be settled soon and suspended its
preparation for a hearing.



The following table highlights our
various sources of revenues and expenses as compared to the prior year for the Sands.

GOLD RANCH CASINO AND RV RESORT.    For the year ended June 30, 2005, Gold Ranch
had net revenues of $24.3 million, compared to $23.8 million for the year ended June 30, 2004. This increase was attributable to the increase in the retail price of gasoline. The average retail price of a gallon of gasoline was $2.16 for fiscal
2005 compared to $1.85 for fiscal 2004. Gasoline gallons sold declined by 825,000, or 10.8%, as competitive gasoline pricing on the I-80 corridor in California did not permit Gold Ranch the ability to sell gasoline as cheaply as its California
competitors and maintain an acceptable gross margin. Further, new taxes imposed by the Nevada legislature which became effective in 2004 included tax hikes for tobacco and alcohol. For tobacco products in particular, Nevada had enjoyed a competitive
advantage over California with respect to excise taxes. This advantage closed substantially with the new Nevada taxes and tobacco sales dropped by $197,000, or 29.2%, in the year-over-year comparison.



Gaming revenue for Gold Ranch is comprised of slot machine revenue and, to a
lesser degree, revenue from a California lottery ticket station. Gaming revenue decreased from $5.8 million for the year ended June 30, 2004 to $5.4 million in the year ended June 30, 2005, a decrease of 6.6%. Management believes the
decrease was due in part to the decrease in the number of customers drawn by comparatively inexpensive gasoline and tobacco products. In February 2005, an $865,000 slot marketing and ticketing system was installed. Management believes this capital
investment is strategically important to transform Gold Ranch from a fuel and convenience store with gaming to a casino with amenities, which attract locals and travelers alike. Gold Ranchs income from operations declined from $1.8 million in
the year ended June 30, 2004 to $1.3 million, or 27.7%, in the year ended June 30, 2005. The principal reason for the decline was the revenue shortfall. Additionally, taxes and license fees increased as Gold Ranch and much of Verdi, Nevada
was incorporated into the City of Reno on December 8, 2004. The anticipated annual impact of this change will be approximately $64,000 annually. Gold Ranch management supported the annexation by the City of Reno because of what municipal water
and sewer, projected within the next few years, could mean for the growth of Gold Ranch and the surrounding area.

RAIL CITY CASINO.    The Company acquired Rail City in May 2004. For the two months
ended June 30, 2004, Rail City had net revenues of $4.1 million (approximately $68,000 per day). For the year ended June 30, 2005, Rail City had $24.7 million of net revenues (also approximately $68,000 per day). Rail Citys clientele
is predominately from the greater Reno/Sparks area, and as such, is minimally affected by bowling or other special or community events, tourism, weather, and seasonality factors. Rail City had income from operations of $1.0 million for the two
months ended June 30, 2004 and an operating expense margin of 75.4%. In the year ended June 30, 2005, Rail Citys income from operations was $6.5 million and the expense margin improved to 73.7%.



Because of its location, capacity utilization, and other factors, the Company
has determined that expansion of the facilities is necessary for significant revenue growth into the future and plans to expand approximately 23,500 square feet to the current facility, adding capacity to all revenue centers. The Company is hopeful
of an early calendar 2006 groundbreaking, but our expansion plans are contingent on our ability to acquire a parcel of land from the State of Nevada which is currently leased by Rail City. The following table highlights Rail Citys sources of
revenues and expenses for the:

CORPORATE
COSTS.    Corporate costs were redefined at the beginning of the current fiscal year and now include the salaries and benefits of corporate officers, directors, and other corporate level management, in addition to public company
reporting costs, and public company related legal and accounting fees. Reclassifications of costs have been made to the prior year for comparison purposes. Corporate operating costs were $2.0 million for the year ended June 30, 2005, compared
to $1.7 million for the year ended June 30, 2004. The increases in corporate costs were primarily the result of $375,000 of costs directly attributable to fees to outside professionals retained to assist in compliance with the new internal
control requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (SOX), specifically SOX section 404. The Company has determined itself to be a non-accelerated filer, and as such is subject to new rules, which provide that the date we need to be
fully SOX 404 compliant be extended to June 30, 2008. The Company has taken the opportunity to scale back the resources projected to be needed from outside consultants and anticipates more compliance work to be performed in-house. The full
amount which will need to be appropriated on SOX 404 to attain compliance is not specifically known, but future costs are anticipated to be material.



INTEREST EXPENSE.    Interest expense was $2.2 million for the year ended June 30, 2005, compared to $1.2 million for the year
ended June 30, 2004. The increase was due to a higher average debt balance in fiscal 2005 resulting from our acquisition of Rail City in May 2004.

Results of OperationsComparison of fiscal 2004 to fiscal 2003



CONSOLIDATED RESULTS.    For the year ended
June 30, 2004, the Companys net operating revenues increased from $55.7 million to $62.3 million, or 12.0%, from the year ended June 30, 2003. Without the two month results of Rail City, which was acquired May 1, 2004, net
revenues would have increased from $55.7 million in fiscal 2003 to $58.2 million, or 4.5%, in fiscal 2004. The Sands net operating revenues were $34.4 million for fiscal 2004, compared to $33.5 million in fiscal 2003, a 2.7% increase. The
Sands benefited from an unusually strong winter and early spring, which is typically a very slow season. Gold Ranch had net operating revenues of $23.8 million in fiscal 2004, compared to $22.2 million in fiscal 2003, a 7.2% increase. This increase
resulted from higher gasoline prices at the high volume fuel and convenience store. Rail Citys net revenues were $4.1 million for two months of operations.



Our consolidated income from operations was $4.9 million for the year ended June 30, 2004, compared to $4.3 million for
the year ended June 30, 2003. Income from operations for the Sands was just under $2.8 million in fiscal 2004 as compared to over $2.8 million in fiscal 2003. The Sands had a net operating revenue increase, but slightly lower income from
operations due mainly to increased marketing expense designed to counter the effects of the ReTRAC project and the new Thunder Valley Casino in nearby Rocklin, California. Gold Ranchs income from operations decreased to $1.5 million in fiscal
2004, compared to $1.8 million in fiscal 2003, lower primarily due to a $195,000 charge for impairment of its gasoline pumps. Rail City had income from operations of $1.0 million in its first two months of operations under the Company. Finally,
corporate costs of the parent company amounted to $439,000, larger than the $324,000 operating expenses of the prior year, due to an allocation of corporate salaries and bonus expense precipitated by the purchase of Rail City.



Consolidated net income was $6.9 million, or $1.32 per share ($1.24 diluted)
for the year ended June 30, 2004 compared to $1.9 million, or $.38 per share ($.36 diluted) for the year ended June 30, 2003. The large improvement in fiscal 2004 net income was due primarily to two events. First, the Company received
payments of $4.4 million on a previously fully-reserved note receivable the Company possessed in connection with its December 1998 sale of the Copa Casino (see Gain on previously reserved note receivable in this discussion), and
secondly, Rail City contributed $442,000 to net income in its first two months of operations. Without these two events, the Company would have had net income of $2.0 million, or $.38 per share ($.36 diluted) as compared to the $1.9 million, or $.38
per share ($.36 diluted), net income of fiscal 2003.



Year-over-year comparisons were affected by large non-operating gains from the collection of a note receivable that was previously reserved. The following is consolidated pro forma net income information that is presented as if i) neither
year realized these non-operating gains and ii) Rail City was acquired July 1, 2002, as presented in Note 1(a).

SANDS REGENCY HOTEL
AND CASINO.    The Sands net revenues increased $936,000, from $33.5 million for fiscal 2003 to $34.4 million in fiscal 2004, as the downtown Reno property benefited from the mens American Bowlers Congress triennial
tournament, which was a month longer and drew larger numbers to the Reno area than last years Womens Invitational Bowlers Congress triennial tournament. Further, former patrons

of the closed Sundowner Casino, situated adjacent to the Sands, provided the Sands with incremental guest counts. Factors moderating the downtown Reno
propertys revenues included the intermittent street disruptions caused by ongoing work on the downtown railroad trench (ReTRAC project), high fuel prices, and increased competition from Native American casinos, especially from the nearby
Thunder Valley Casino in Rocklin, California, which opened in May 2003.



Gaming revenues for the Sands increased from $21.5 million in fiscal 2003 to $22.3 million in fiscal 2004. Gaming revenues for fiscal 2004 tracked lower to the prior year through approximately November 2003, primarily attributable to a soft
fiscal first quarter, which was weakened by: i) street closures from the ReTRAC project and ii) less patronage from by the northern California feeder market who gave trial to the newly opened Thunder Valley Casino. In the March 2004 quarter, which
was unusually strong in what is typically a seasonally slow period, the gaming revenues turned higher on the year-over-year comparison and remained higher, finishing higher than the prior year by $832,000, or 3.9%. The increase in gaming revenues
was partially offset by lost revenues from our keno operations, which was outsourced to a third party on May 17, 2004, and now realizes only a small percentage of total keno revenues, but also experiences reduced costs.



Lodging revenues for the Sands increased for the year ended June 30,
2004, to $9.0 million from $8.5 million for fiscal 2003. The Sands average room rate was $33.90 for fiscal 2004 versus $33.22 for fiscal 2003, which contributed approximately $176,000 to the increase in lodging revenues. However, the primary
reason for the lodging revenue increase was an additional 10,225, or 4.0%, more rooms sold in the 2004 fiscal year than in fiscal 2003. The Sands benefited from less rooms available in the market, as two downtown hotels, the Comstock and the
Sundowner, were closed most of the year, both currently being remodeled into condominiums.



Despite an increase in net revenues at the Sands, income from operations decreased $64,000, or 2.2%, from fiscal 2003 to fiscal 2004, due to a variety of factors, including increased marketing costs to combat the
negative effects of both the ReTRAC project and the new competition from California casinos. Further, the wholesale prices for meat used in the restaurants was markedly higher, the 2003 Nevada legislature enacted new taxes which increased operating
costs over $90,000, and finally, depreciation costs were higher due to the first full year of amortization of two large projects completed in fiscal 2003: (i) the hotel guest rooms remodel and (ii) the slot machine player tracking system
upgrade.

GOLD RANCH CASINO AND
RV RESORT.    For the year ended June 30, 2004, Gold Ranch had net revenues of $23.8 million, compared to $22.2 million for the year ended June 30, 2003. This increase was attributable primarily to gasoline revenue and
in particular an increase in the price of gasoline. The average retail price of a gallon of gasoline was $1.58 for fiscal 2003 compared to $1.85 for fiscal 2004. Gasoline gallons sold declined by 213,000, or 2.7%, due in part to slightly less
traffic on Interstate 80 during the fiscal year. Additionally, during the last half of the 2004 fiscal year, Gold Ranch experienced some competitive gasoline pricing on the I-80 corridor in California. At times, Gold Ranch wasnt able to sell
gasoline as cheaply as its California competitors and maintain its margins.



Gaming revenue for Gold Ranch is comprised of slot machine revenue and, to a lesser degree, revenue from a California lottery ticket station. Gaming revenue increased from $5.7 million for the year ended June 30,
2003 to $5.8 million for the year ended June 30, 2004. Management believes the substantially flat results were due, in part, to the decrease in the number of customers drawn by inexpensive gasoline and to competition from casinos in Northern
California. Further, gaming revenues were negatively impacted by a lower than theoretical hold percentage on its slot machines. Hold percentage is the percentage the house wins, which is compared to total dollars played. Management
believes the excessively low-hold problem of its slot machines was isolated in nature and has taken corrective action.



Gold Ranchs income from operations for the year ended June 30, 2004 declined from the year ended June 30, 2003 by $229,000, or 12.9%. The
primary reason for the decline was a non-cash charge of $195,000 taken on its gasoline pumps. Further, management believes that the intermittently malfunctioning pumps may have contributed to the gallons sold shortfall. Other items contributing to
Gold Ranchs decrease in income from operations include higher meat prices in its restaurant, new taxes enacted by the 2003 Nevada legislature, which became effective mid year and among other things, increased the Nevada tax on cigarettes and
negatively impacted convenience store volume and gross margins.

RAIL CITY
CASINO.    The Company acquired Rail City in May 2004. For the two months ended June 30, 2004, Rail City had $3.7 million of gaming revenues during the spring/summer season, which in contrast to the Companys other
properties, is historically a slightly softer season than the winter months. Rail Citys other material revenue center is food and beverage, which is comprised of one high volume restaurant and bar. Food and beverage revenues were $879,000 for
the two months.



Rail City had income from operations of $1.0
million for the two months ended June 30, 2004 and an operating expense margin of 75.4%. The following table highlights Rail Citys sources of revenues and expenses for the:

CORPORATE COSTS.    Historically, corporate costs of the parent company included
primarily public company reporting costs, related legal and accounting fees and directors fees and related expenses. Corporate costs were $439,000 in the year ended June 30, 2004, compared to $324,000 in the year ended June 30, 2003. As of
the beginning of fiscal 2005, in light of recent growth, the Company redefined corporate costs to include and the salaries, taxes and benefits of certain executives and management. Reclassifications for comparison purposes were made to segment
information retrospectively in fiscal 2004, which increased corporate costs by $1.2 million, decreased subsidiary general and administrative expenses by the same amount, and did not have an effect on the Companys consolidated financial
statements.



INTEREST EXPENSE.    Interest
expense was almost $1.2 million for the year ended June 30, 2004, compared to slightly more than $1.2 million in the year ended June 30, 2003. The decrease resulted despite our acceleration of the expensing of loan fees from our previous
bank debt, which was refinanced in May 2004. We account for the amortization of loan fees within our interest expense and those fees were $231,000 greater in 2004 than the prior year. Throughout fiscal 2004, the Company continued its policy to pay
down its long-term line of credit with any available cash. This was accelerated by a $4.4 million settlement we received on a fully-reserved note receivable we held in connection with the December 1998 sale of the Copa Casino. On May 1, 2004,
we increased our bank debt from $2.4 million to approximately $42.9 million to fund the Rail City acquisition.



GAIN ON PREVIOUSLY RESERVED NOTE RECEIVABLE.    On November 13, 2003, we reached an agreement with Gulfside Casino Partnership
(d/b/a the Copa Casino in Gulfport, Mississippi), regarding a final settlement of amounts owed to the Company pursuant to a non-interest bearing promissory note issued to the Company in connection with its December 1998 sale of its interest in the
Copa Casino. The terms of the note required a monthly payment to the Company in an amount equal to the greater of $15,000 or 2% of the Copa Casinos gross gaming revenues (4% beginning July 2004) until the note was paid in full. At the time of
the settlement, the unpaid balance of the note was $5.0 million. On November 28, 2003, the Company received an approximately $4.0 million cash payment as final settlement under the note. The Company had not previously recognized a gain on the
settlement amount due primarily to the Companys uncertainty of the Copas current managements ability to obtain long-term financing, as well as competitive, legal, financial, environmental and various other risks facing the casino.
As a result, in December 2003, the Company recognized a gain for the full settlement amount of $4.0 million plus debt service payments of $387,000 made during the period.



FEDERAL INCOME TAXEFFECTIVE RATE.    The Companys effective tax rate of 14.3% varies
significantly from the statutory rate due to circumstances involving the Companys 1998 sale of the Copa Casino. At the time of the Copa Casinos sale, the Companys tax basis in the Copa Casino was $7.3 million and its financial
basis was $2.7 million. The sales price included a note for $8.0 million and $500,000 in cash. The $8.5 million proceeds from the sale was recognized for tax purposes and a $1.2 million tax gain was recorded. No gain was recognized for financial
statement purposes at the time of the sale. A deferred tax asset was recognized for $1.9 million with a related valuation allowance of $1.5 million. The valuation allowance was recorded due to the uncertainty of receiving any future payments in
relation to the sale. In fiscal 2003, payments were received, which reduced the net deferred tax asset to $270,000. In fiscal 2004, a payment of $4.0 million was received in a negotiated settlement of the note. In addition, the remaining $1.0
million due was written off as bad debt for tax purposes, as this was previously recorded as part of the tax gain in 1998. Accordingly, the valuation allowance was reversed, the deferred tax asset was utilized, and the overall tax rate was reduced
as a result of this transaction.



Seasonality



As is true for most casinos in the Reno area, especially for casinos with
lodging, tourism declines rather substantially in the winter. Due to lower room rates and a lower level of gaming play per occupied room, operating margins and, to a lesser extent, revenues are lower during our second and third fiscal quarters. To
attempt to counter this seasonality, the Company has aggressively pursued local patrons for the last several years.

##### Table of Contents

Additionally, the Company acquired locals casinos, Rail City in May 2004, and the Dayton Depot in September 2005, which historically experience no
seasonality or even a mildly reverse seasonality; that is, a slightly higher than average demand during the winter months. Despite these acquisitions, management anticipates that the trend of experiencing lower operating margins and revenues in the
winter months of each fiscal year may diminish somewhat, but should continue.



Capital Resources and Liquidity



At
June 30, 2005, our cash and cash equivalents were $3.3 million, a decrease from $5.4 million as of June 30, 2004. We had negative working capital of $1.8 million at June 30, 2005. The decrease in cash and the negative working capital
is consistent with our policy to use any available cash not immediately needed in operations to pay down our line of credit and minimize interest expense. At June 30, 2005, we had a loan balance of $19.5 million and $18.6 million available
under our revolving credit facility.



Cash flow from operations
provided $10.2 million during the year ended June 30, 2005, compared to $9.2 million for the year ended June 30, 2004. The increase was due to incremental cash generated by Rail City, which had a full twelve months of operations during the
period, but only two months of operations during the prior year. Investing activities accounted for a $4.8 million use of cash for the current fiscal year, compared with $33.7 million used for investing activities in the prior year. The large
difference is due to the Companys acquisition of Rail City in May of the prior year.



We generated total gross proceeds of $9.3 million ($8.6 million, net) from the issuance of Company stock. Of the total proceeds, $9.2 million was realized when the Company completed a sale of 1,120,000 shares of its
common stock to institutional investors in November 2004. All cash generated from the issuance of Company stock, as well as cash generated from other activities, was used to pay down the Companys line of credit. A total of $16.1 million of
debt was paid down during the year ended June 30, 2005. Refer to the consolidated financial statementsNote 11, for a more complete description of these transactions.



Our bank term loan and revolving credit facility, requires the Company to be in compliance with certain financial and other
covenants, restricts future encumbrances, and limits situations where a change in control in the Company may occur. The financial covenants include the requirement that a minimum EBITDA (earnings before interest expense, taxes, depreciation and
amortization) and certain other financial ratios be maintained. The Company believes that it is in compliance with all covenants and restrictions at June 30, 2005.



During fiscal 2005, we had capital expenditures of $4.6 million of which $2.4 million of which was for new slot machines and
slot product. During the year we began what is anticipated to be a $3.0 million casino renovation of its Sands property. The casino floor and other common areas are being refurbished. Sands management estimates the project to be approximately 40%
complete as of June 30, 2005. Additionally at Gold Ranch, during the most recent fiscal year, we installed a new slot machine ticketing and marketing system, and replaced the gas pumps. We are also pursuing expansion opportunities at Rail City.
Pending the successful acquisition of land that is currently leased by Rail City and successfully obtaining necessary licenses and permits, we have plans to add capacity to all revenue centers of the facility. The preliminary estimate for this
project is $8.5 million. Further, the Company continues to actively pursue other gaming opportunities in this jurisdiction and others.



On September 1, 2005, the Company completed its previously announced plans to purchase the Depot Casino and Red Hawk Sports Bar in Dayton, Nevada.
The final purchase price is expected to be approximately $10.5 million, $9.8 million in cash and approximately $700,000 in Company stock. The Company has immediate plans to appropriate approximately $2.0 million for slot equipment and minor
remodeling to enhance these casinos competitiveness in the Dayton Valley/Carson City area.



Effective with the acquisition of the Dayton casinos, the Company has an amended and restated credit facility (consolidated financial statementsNote
13). Immediately before the Companys acquisition of the

Depot Casino, our debt balance under our credit facility was $19.5 million. After the acquisition, the debt balance on our amended and restated credit
facility increased to $29.5 million; however, we still have credit lines available of $17.5 million.



The Company believes that its cash funds, cash generated from operations, and available borrowing capacity is sufficient to fund its operations and meet
current debt obligations, and fulfill its capital expenditure plans for the next twelve months. We are subject to financial, economic, competitive, regulatory, and other factors, many of which are beyond our control. If the Company is unable to
generate sufficient cash flow, it could be required to adopt one or more alternatives, such as reducing or delaying planned capital expenditures, selling assets, restructuring debt, or obtaining additional debt or equity capital.

Any forward-looking statements are made pursuant to the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and, as such, speak only as of the date made.
We undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.



Risks Relating to our Business



An investment in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should consider the risks described below and the other information contained in
this report carefully before deciding to invest in the Company. If any of the following risks actually occur, our business, financial condition and operating results would be materially harmed. As a result, the trading price of our common stock
could decline, and you could lose a part or all of your investment.



Our
business may be adversely impacted if the Reno economy declines.



We heavily market to and rely upon business from Reno area residents. In recent years, Reno has enjoyed robust business growth and has attracted a number of technology, product distribution and marketing companies. These businesses have
created jobs and helped fuel residential development, including the Reno metropolitan area. Should there be negative changes in the business and job conditions in Reno, our locals business, which is a substantial part of our overall business, could
be adversely impacted.



The gaming industry is highly competitive and
increased competition could have a material adverse effect on our future operations.



The gaming industry is highly competitive. As competitive pressures from California Native American casinos increase, other Reno area casinos may intensify their targeting of the Reno area resident market, which is
one of our key markets. Increased competitive pressures in the local market could adversely impact our ability to continue to attract local residents to our facilities, or require us to use more expensive and therefore less profitable promotions to
compete more efficiently. In addition, Native American gaming facilities in California and other jurisdictions in some instances operate under regulatory requirements less stringent than those imposed on Nevada licensed casinos, which could afford
them a competitive advantage in our markets.



Our business may be adversely
impacted by expanded Native American gaming operations in California and the Pacific Northwest.



Our largest sources of tourist customers are California and the Pacific Northwest, including a large number who drive to Reno from the San Francisco and
Sacramento metropolitan areas. The expansion of Native American casinos in California, Oregon, and Washington continues to have an impact on casino revenues in Nevada in general, and some analysts have predicted the impact will be significant on the
Reno-Tahoe market.

##### Table of Contents

For example, Thunder Valley Casino, a large new Native American casino managed by Station Casinos, Inc., opened June 9, 2003, 110 miles west of Reno in
Rocklin, California. Californias well-documented budgetary problems have state officials in active negotiations to renegotiate certain compacts with Native American tribes. Some Native American casino compacts have already been changed to
allow for additional slot machines. The effect of increased gaming in California and other states is difficult to predict. However, our business would be adversely impacted if Thunder Valley and other casinos attract patrons who would otherwise
travel to Reno. In addition, a significant portion of our customer base is made up of Reno area residents. If other Reno area casinos lose business due to competition from Native American casinos, they may intensify their marketing efforts to Reno
area residents as well, which could materially and adversely impact our business and financial results.



Adverse winter weather conditions in the Sierra Nevada Mountains and Reno-Lake Tahoe area could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.



Adverse winter weather conditions, particularly snowfall, can deter our
customers from traveling or make it difficult for them to frequent our facilities. Adverse winter weather would most significantly affect our drive-in customers from northern California and the Pacific Northwest. If the Reno area itself were to
experience prolonged adverse winter weather conditions, our results of operations and financial condition could also be materially adversely affected.



Terrorist attacks may seriously harm our business.



The terrorist attacks that took place in the United States on September 11, 2001 were unprecedented events that created economic and business
uncertainties, especially for the travel and tourism industry. The potential for future terrorist attacks, the national and international responses, and other acts of war or hostility have created economic and political uncertainties that could
materially adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition in ways we currently cannot predict.



If we lose our key personnel, our business could be materially adversely affected.



We depend on the continued performance of our Chief Executive Officer and his management team. If we lose the services of
our senior management personnel, and cannot replace such persons in a timely manner, our business could be materially adversely affected.



Our business is subject to restrictions and limitations imposed by regulatory authorities that could adversely affect us.



The ownership and operation of casino gaming facilities are subject to
extensive state and local regulation. The State of Nevada and the applicable local authorities require various licenses, registrations, permits and approvals to be held by us. The Nevada Gaming Commission may, among other things, limit, condition,
suspend, or revoke or decline to renew a license for any cause deemed reasonable by such licensing authority. If we violate gaming laws or regulations, substantial fines could be levied against us and we could be forced to forfeit a portion of our
assets. The suspension, revocation or non-renewal of any of our licenses or the levy on us of substantial fines or forfeiture of assets would have a material and adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.



If the State of Nevada or local municipalities increase gaming taxes and
fees, our results of operations could be adversely affected.



State and local authorities raise a significant amount of revenue through taxes and fees on gaming activities. From time to time, legislators and officials have proposed changes in tax laws, or in the administration of such laws, affecting
the gaming industry. In addition, worsening economic conditions could intensify the efforts of state and local governments to raise revenues through increases in gaming taxes. If the State of Nevada, the



25

##### Table of Contents

Cities of Reno or Sparks, or the County of Washoe were to increase gaming taxes and fees, our results of operations could be adversely affected.



Recently issued standards, rules and regulations of governing agencies and bodies could
result in material increases in our corporate expense which could adversely affect our financial results.



We keep abreast of new generally acceptable accounting principles and rules and regulations issued or adopted by the Financial Accounting Standards Board,
the Securities and Exchange Commission, the NASDAQ and other standard setting agencies. These principles, rules and regulations often require us to expend funds in order to meet additional requirements. As a result, our expenses could materially
increase, which could adversely affect our financial results. Recently issued accounting standards affecting our financial results are described in Note 1 to our consolidated financial statements.



Our substantial indebtedness after recent acquisitions could adversely affect our
operations and financial results.



With our recent amended
and restated credit agreement and the Companys recent acquisitions, we now have a bank credit facility, which, fully extended, amounts to $47.0 million. We expect to incur additional indebtedness as a result of our planned casino acquisitions
and other projects, which could result in overall indebtedness of the Company to increase to $50 million, or beyond, in the next 12 months. The increased levels of debt could, among other things:



| |  |  | require us to dedicate a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations to payments on our debt, thereby reducing funds available for working capital, capital expenditures,
dividends, acquisitions and other purposes;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | increase our vulnerability to, and limit flexibility in planning for, adverse economic and industry conditions;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | create competitive disadvantages compared to other companies with lower debt levels; and
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | limit our ability to apply proceeds from an offering or asset sale to purposes other than the repayment of debt.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



We may be unable to successfully integrate the operations of our recent and future
acquisitions and/or experience significant charges to earnings as a result of the acquisition that may adversely affect our stock price and financial condition.



The future success of the Companys acquisitions will depend on a number of factors, including the successful
integration of the newly acquired operations with existing operations. Potential difficulties of combining the operations of acquirees with that of the Company include, among others:



| |  |  | retaining key employees;
| | - |  | ------------------------



| |  |  | consolidating administrative infrastructures;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------



| |  |  | coordinating sales and marketing functions; and
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------



| |  |  | minimizing the diversion of managements attention from ongoing business concerns.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Even if the Company is able to integrate its acquisitions successfully, this integration may not result in the realization
of the full benefits and growth opportunities that we expect or these benefits may not be achieved within the anticipated time frame.



In addition, as a result of the recent acquisitions we have experienced, and will likely continue to experience, significant charges to earnings for
merger and related expenses that may include transaction costs or



26

closure costs. These costs may include substantial fees for investment bankers, attorneys, accountants and financial printing costs. Charges that we may
incur in connection with acquisition could adversely affect our results of operations.



ITEM 7A.    QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK



With the amended and restated Credit Agreement executed in September 2005, in conjunction the with the acquisition of the Depot in Dayton, the Company has
substantial variable interest rate debt. Assuming the credit facilities are fully advanced, a one percent increase in interest rates would result in an increase in interest expense of approximately $470,000 annually.



Additionally, terms of the Companys RV park management agreement with
Prospector Gaming Enterprises (PGE), referenced as (3) in the Commitments and Contingencies section of this Report, state that the Company pay monthly an amount equal to 120% of PGEs debt service on the underlying RV
park note, which varies directly with changes in the Prime index. The financial impact to the Company of a full one percent increase in the Prime index is less than $25,000 per year.



The Company does not use interest rate derivative instruments to manage exposure to interest rate changes.

|ITEM 8. | CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA
|------- | --------------------------------------------------------



REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM



To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of The Sands Regent:



We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of The Sands Regent and subsidiaries (the Company) as of June 30, 2005 and
2004, and the related consolidated statements of income, stockholders equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended June 30, 2005. Our audits also included the consolidated financial statement schedule listed in
the Index as Item 15(a)(2). These financial statements and financial statements schedule are the responsibility of the Companys management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial statement
schedule based on our audits.



We conducted our audits in
accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing
audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Companys internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also
includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.



In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of The Sands Regent and subsidiaries as of June 30, 2005 and 2004, and the results of their
operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended June 30, 2005, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also, in our opinion, such consolidated financial
statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly in all material respects the information set forth therein.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



NOTE 1SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES



|(a) | Principles of consolidation, basis of presentation, and significant accounting policies
|--- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of The Sands Regent (the Company) and
its wholly-owned subsidiaries: Zante, Inc. (Zante), Last Chance, Inc. (Last Chance), and Plantation Investments, Inc. (Plantation). The Company and its subsidiaries are incorporated in Nevada.



Zante owns and operates the Sands Regency Casino/Hotel (Sands) in
downtown Reno, Nevada, and a small slot machine route, Pericles Distributing, which operates in the greater Reno area. In December 2001, the Company formed Last Chance, which acquired the Gold Ranch Casino and RV Resort in Verdi, Nevada, and
California Prospectors, Ltd. (California Prospectors), a Nevada limited liability company, which operates a California lottery station. Together, Last Chance and California Prospectors are presented as Gold Ranch.



On May 1, 2004, the Company acquired 100% of the common stock of
Plantation, which operates the Rail City Casino (Rail City) in Sparks, Nevada. The year ended June 30, 2004 includes two months of Rail City operations, whereas the year ended June 30, 2005 has a full 12 months of operations
presented.



On March 31, 2005, the Company formed Dayton
Gaming, Inc. for the purpose of acquiring the assets of the Depot Casino and Red Hawk Sports Bar (together, the Dayton Depot) in Dayton, Nevada. On September 1, 2005, the Company completed the acquisition and, accordingly, results
of operations for the Depot will first be included in the Companys Consolidated Financial Statements in the first quarter of fiscal 2006.



All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In accordance with SFAS 131Business Segments and
Related Information, the Company segments some financial and operational information geographically, specifically, by major property- Sands, Gold Ranch, and Rail City (see Note 10Business Segments).



Year-over-year comparisons are affected by the May 1, 2004 acquisition
of Rail City and the following is consolidated pro forma financial information that is presented as if the acquisition was completed July 1, 2002.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(Continued)



This pro forma consolidated financial information is unaudited. In the opinion of management, all
adjustments and normally recurring accruals necessary to present fairly the financial condition of the Company as of June 30, 2005, 2004, and 2003 have been included.



|(b) | Nature of operations
|--- | --------------------



The Company owns Nevada style casinos, a slot route and a California lottery station in the greater Reno, Nevada area and defines itself as a Gaming
and Entertainment company. The Company also has significant gaming support facilities, including an 833 room hotel, multiple food and beverage venues, a 105 space RV Park, a high-volume gas station, a convenience store, as well as other
ancillary services.



Gaming operations are subject to extensive
regulation by the authorities in Nevada. Additionally, the State of California regulates the lottery operations at Gold Ranch. Management believes that the Companys procedures for supervising gaming operations and recording casino and other
revenues comply in all material respects with the applicable regulations.



|(c) | Operating revenues
|--- | ------------------



Gaming revenue represents the Company win from gaming activities, which is the net of gaming wins and losses. Additionally, net win is reduced by a
provision for anticipated payouts on progressive jackpots and on slot participation payments due third-parties. The majority of gaming revenue is in the form of cash and therefore is not subject to any significant or complex revenue estimation or
realization procedures. Lodging and Food and Beverage revenues include the estimated retail value of rooms, food, and beverage provided to customers on a complimentary basis. These amounts are then deducted as promotional allowances to arrive at net
revenues. The estimated cost of providing these promotional allowances were charged to Gaming expense as follows:

Other operating
revenue is comprised of casino/hotel ancillary services and other operating expenses are the expenses associated with those revenues. The revenues and operating expenses for the gas station and convenience store at Gold Ranch have a separate
category-Fuel and convenience store.



|(d) | Cash and cash equivalents
|--- | -------------------------



Cash equivalents have an original maturity of three months or less, and are carried at cost, which approximates market.



|(e) | Inventories
|--- | -----------



Inventories consist primarily of food, beverage, gasoline, and operating supplies and are stated at the lower of cost (determined on an average cost
basis) or market.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(Continued)



|(f) | Property and equipment
|--- | ----------------------



Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation and amortization is computed primarily by the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives
of the assets. These lives range between 5 to 35 years for buildings and improvements and 1 to 20 years for equipment, furniture, and fixtures. Leasehold improvements are amortized over their estimated useful life or the life of the lease, whichever
is shorter. Assets sold or otherwise disposed of are removed from the property accounts and the resulting gains or losses are included in income.



|(g) | Capitalized interest
|--- | --------------------



Interest associated with major construction projects is capitalized when debt is incurred specifically for a project, using our weighted average cost of
borrowing. Capitalization of interest ceases when the project or discernible portions of the project are substantially complete. Capitalized interest was not a material amount for the three year period presented.



|(h) | Debt issuance costs
|--- | -------------------



Debt issuance costs incurred in connection with the issuance of long-term debt are capitalized and amortized to interest expense over the term of the debt
instrument. Unamortized debt issuance costs are included in other assets on the balance sheet.



|(i) | Self-insurance accrued liability
|--- | --------------------------------



The Company is self-insured for various levels of general liability, workers compensation, and employee dental insurance. Insurance claims and
reserves include estimated settlements for known claims, as well as accrued estimates of incurred but not reported claims. In estimating these costs, the Company makes judgments based on historical claims experience, accident frequency, severity,
and the experience of industry agents, administrators, and others, as appropriate. Actual self-insurance liabilities have not differed materially from accrued estimated amounts for the years presented.



|(j) | Litigation accrued liability
|--- | ----------------------------



The Company assesses its exposure to loss contingencies including legal matters and provides for an exposure if it is judged to be probable and estimable.
If the actual loss from a contingency differs from managements estimate, operating results could be impacted. Actual litigation liabilities have not differed materially from accrued estimated amounts for the years presented with one exception.



In the year ended June 30, 2003, the Company incurred
$547,000 in legal fees and settlement costs associated with a personal injury claim, which arose out of an April 2000 incident. The Company had maintained general liability insurance to protect itself from claims in excess of a contracted
deductible. However, subsequent to the incident which resulted in the claim, the Company was informed that the insurance carrier during the period, Legion Indemnity, had become insolvent and was not expected to make any payment to the claimant or
the Company. In July 2003, the Company settled with the claimant and sought recovery of its loss from the Companys insurance broker at the time. In October 2004, we settled with our insurance broker for $200,000, net of attorneys fees.



|(k) | Customer reward program accrued liability
|--- | -----------------------------------------



The Company has in place a rewards system based on customer gaming play. Rewards are redeemable for complimentary hotel rooms, food, beverage,
merchandise, and in many cases, cash. A significant amount of



35

##### Table of Contents

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(Continued)



rewards earned by customers expire without redemption. The Company estimates the percentage of rewards earned that will be redeemed based on experience
and/or special circumstances, if any. For instance, it is less likely customers will redeem small balances than large balances. Additionally, locals have a higher redemption rate than non-locals. Actual customer reward liabilities have not differed
materially from accrued estimated amounts during the years presented.



|(l) | Goodwill and other intangible assets
|--- | ------------------------------------



Intangible assets consist of trademarks/trade names, customer database(s), grandfathered gaming license(s), a below-market land lease, and goodwill.
Goodwill and other intangibles are reviewed annually for impairment and, if necessary, an impairment loss will be recorded. Refer to Note 3 for a more complete description of the Companys goodwill and other intangibles.



|(m) | Impairment of long-lived assets
|--- | -------------------------------



Asset listings are maintained by the Company and are grouped by revenue center or by department. Revenues and certain direct costs can be linked to
individual assets, but the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows can be determined that are largely independent of the cash flows of other assets and liabilities is at the property level. Therefore, whenever events or circumstances indicate
that a propertys carrying amount may not be recoverable, its carrying value is compared to the anticipated current and projected cash flows of the asset, or group of assets, to determine if impairment has occurred. The Company does not believe
that any events or circumstances have occurred that would require the realization or recognition of an impairment charge.



|(n) | Concentrations of credit risk
|--- | -----------------------------



Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents. The Company
maintains cash in bank accounts with balances, at times, in excess of federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to significant credit risk on its cash and cash equivalents.



|(o) | Income taxes
|--- | ------------



Income taxes are accounted for in accordance with the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards SFAS
No. 109Accounting for Income Taxes. In accordance with SFAS No. 109, the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes is utilized whereby deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for future tax
consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply
to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Under SFAS No. 109, the effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in income in the period
that includes the enactment date. The Company has a March 31 tax year-end, however it intends to change its tax year end to June 30, the same as its financial year, as soon as administratively possible.



|(p) | Fair value of financial instruments
|--- | -----------------------------------



The Company calculates the fair value of financial instruments and includes this additional information in the Companys Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements when the fair value is different than the book value of those financial instruments. When fair value is equal to book value, no additional disclosure is made. Fair value is determined using quoted market prices whenever
available. When quoted market prices are not

available, the Company uses alternative valuation techniques such as calculating the present value of estimated future cash flows utilizing discount rates
commensurate with the risks involved. It is estimated that the carrying amounts of the Companys financial instruments approximate fair value at June 30, 2005.



|(q) | Use of estimates
|--- | ----------------



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 disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting
period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.



|(r) | Recently issued accounting pronouncements
|--- | -----------------------------------------



In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123 (revised
2004), Share-Based Payment (SFAS 123(R)), replacing SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, and superseding Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, Accounting
for Stock Issued to Employees. SFAS 123(R) requires the recognition of share-based compensation in the financial statements. SFAS 123(R) is effective as of the first annual reporting period that begins after June 15, 2005 and will be
adopted by the Company in its first quarter of fiscal 2006. The Company continues to evaluate its compensation practices, as well as other available valuation models for valuing stock options.



|(s) | Stock option program
|--- | --------------------



The Company accounts for its stock option plan under the recognition and measurement principles of APB Opinion No. 25, and related interpretations.
No stock-based compensation costs are reflected in net income, as all options granted under the plans had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of the grant. If the Company had elected to recognize
compensation cost on the fair market value at the grant dates for awards under the stock option plan, consistent with the method prescribed by SFAS No. 123(R), using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with managements
assumptions disclosed, net income and income per share would have been changed to the pro forma amounts indicated below:

Amortization of Intangibles



The expense associated with the amortization of
intangibles was $617,000 for the year ended June 30, 2005 and $113,000 for the year ended June 30, 2004. The Company intends to purchase the land at Rail City that is subject to the under-market land lease. The annual amortization expense
assuming the Company does not purchase the land subject to the under-market lease for the current and succeeding fiscal years is expected to be as follows:

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(Continued)



NOTE 4GAIN ON NOTE RECEIVABLE



In December 1998, the Company sold its interest in the Copa Casino (Copa) in Gulfport, Mississippi. At the time
the sale was recorded, we reserved approximately $5.6 million of the original $8.0 million note due to collectability concerns. In January 2003, we began receiving payments which exceeded the net amount of the receivable we had originally recorded.
We settled our interest in the Copa in full on November 28, 2003, when the Company received a negotiated $4.0 million cash payment. In the year ended June 30, 2004, the Company recognized a total $4.4 million gain on final settlement of
the Copa note. The settlement amount was not subject to income tax as the Companys tax basis in the Copa was higher than the financial gain realized. Further, the Company took an additional $1.0 million write-down for tax purposes, which
further reduced the federal income tax provision in fiscal 2004.

The bank term loan and
revolving credit facility (Credit Agreement), which totaled $42.0 million when entered into in May 2004, requires the Company to be in compliance with certain financial and other covenants, restricts future encumbrances, and limits situations where
a change in control in the Company may occur. The financial covenants include the requirement that a minimum EBITDA (earnings before interest expense, taxes, depreciation and amortization) and certain other financial ratios be maintained. The
Company believes that it is in compliance with all covenants and restrictions at June 30, 2005.

On September 1,
2005, we executed a restated and amended Credit Agreement, which increases the maximum loan amount to $47.0 million, resets the mandatory principal payment schedule, extends the maturity date when all amounts are due and payable to September 1,
2010 and revises the collateral agreement to add the real and personal property associated with the September 1, 2005 Dayton Depot acquisition, among other provisions. Current maturities of long term debt at June 30, 2005 reflect the
refinancing as disclosed above.



NOTE 6EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN



The Companys Equity Incentive Plan (the
Plan) provides for the granting of incentive and non-qualified stock options as well as restricted stock, to executives, key employees, consultants, and independent directors. Previously, the stock option plan provided for the automatic

new independent director, as well as options to purchase 7,500 shares to each independent director on each succeeding annual meeting date that such director
continues to serve. The directors will continue to receive incentive shares in the form of restricted shares starting at the November 7, 2005 annual meeting, grant amounts are still being determined.



The Plan presently allows for the granting of options or restricted stock
covering a maximum of 1,600,000 shares of the Companys common stock (500,000 of which were approved at the annual meeting held November 1, 2004). The Plan will continue until the year 2010, unless terminated earlier. Under the Plan, the
per share exercise price of an option cannot be less than 100% of the fair market value of the shares at date of grant or 110% of the fair market value in the case of incentive stock options granted to stockholders owning more than 10% of the
outstanding common shares. Stock options and restricted shares generally vest 25% to 50% each year after grant for employees, but vest fully in one year for independent directors.

|(1) | In the year ended June 30, 2004, as discussed in Note 4, a note receivable from the sale of a Mississippi casino owned by the Company until December 1998, provided for a
deferred tax asset and corresponding valuation allowance based on the uncertainty of receiving future payments. In December 2003, the Company settled with the debtor of this obligation and received an amount in excess of the net deferred tax asset
previously recognized. With the settlement amount, the Company reversed the valuation allowance and then applied payment to the deferred tax asset. The reversal of the valuation allowance had the effect of reducing the Companys effective
income tax rate to 14.3% for the year ended June 30, 2004.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(Continued)



NOTE 8EARNINGS PER SHARE



Earnings per share is calculated in accordance with SFAS No. 128Earnings Per Share. SFAS 128 provides
for the reporting of basic, or undiluted earnings per share, and diluted earnings per share. Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period.
Diluted earnings per share reflects the addition of potentially dilutive securities, which for the Company, consist of stock options, convertible debt and warrants. Dilution is determined based upon the assumption that the options, the convertible
debt, and the warrant are exercised or converted. The weighted average number of shares outstanding for the calculation of diluted earnings per share include the dilutive effect of the Companys stock options, convertible debt and outstanding
warrants unless the associated strike price(s) exceeds the average closing price in the period.



The following is a reconciliation of the number of shares (denominator) used in the basic and diluted earnings per share computations:

|(1) | Interest is calculated by assuming the Company keeps its line of credit fully advanced and the table assumes a weighted average interest rate of 7.5% until maturity. All long-term
debt matures within 5 years.
|--- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

|(2) | Represents contractual lease obligations to Prospector Gaming Enterprises (PGE) on real property in connection with the Gold Ranch acquisition agreement. Amounts reflect
a minimum base payment schedule. The lease is subject to escalation based on the property meeting certain revenue thresholds. Management does not believe these thresholds will be met without major expansion of the gaming facilities. Rent expense was
$575,000 for fiscal 2005, 2004, and 2003.
|--- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

|(3) | Represents management fees due to PGE in connection with the RV park at Gold Ranch. Future amounts payable are subject to adjustment based on changes in interest rates.
|--- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Contingencies



The Company is party to various legal actions, proceedings and pending
claims arising in the normal conduct of business. We maintain general liability insurance to protect us from costs exceeding a contracted deductible. Management believes that the final outcomes of these matters will not have a material adverse
effect upon the Companys financial position and results of operations.

prohibited by agreement from holding more than 9.9% of the Companys common shares outstanding.



On November 12, 2004, the Company issued 1,120,000 shares of common stock for $8.25 per share to a group of institutional investors. These shares
were issued with warrants to purchase up to 336,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $10.66 per share, exercisable beginning on May 12, 2005 and for a period of five years thereafter. Using the Black-Scholes valuation model, the
Company has determined the valuation of the 336,000 warrants to be approximately $1.6 million, which effectively reduces the amount the institutional investors paid for the 1,120,000 shares of Company common stock to $6.81 per share.

expense consistent with current and prior policy.

On September 1, 2005, the Company completed its previously announced acquisition of the assets of the Depot Casino and
the Red Hawk Sports Bar in Dayton, Nevada (the Acquisition). Under the terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement (the Agreement) dated February 25, 2005, between DAYTON GAMING, INC. and THE SANDS REGENT, INC., BUYERS and
DAYTON DEPOT, REDHAWK VENTURES, LLC and, THE WANDLER FAMILY TRUST, SELLERS and, STAGS LEAP PARTNERS, LLC, the Company paid a preliminary purchase price of approximately $10.5 million, plus working capital, consisting of approximately $9.8 million in
cash and $700,000 in shares of Company common stock. The final purchase price will be based on the twelve-month financial performance of the Dayton properties as outlined in the Agreement.

executed a restated and amended Credit Agreement, which increases the maximum loan amount to $47.0 million, resets the mandatory principal payment schedule, extends the maturity date when all principal is due and payable to September 1, 2010

|ITEM 9A. | CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
|-------- | -----------------------



We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended, 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 our Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, our management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how
well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and our management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and
procedures.



As required by SEC rule 13a15(b), 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 as
of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on the foregoing, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.
