NOTE 1  GENERAL (continued)


Merger Agreement


On
February 6, 2004, Coast Casinos entered into a definitive merger agreement with Boyd
Gaming Corporation (Boyd). Under the agreement, Coast Casinos will merge into
a subsidiary of Boyd and become a wholly owned subsidiary of Boyd. Coast will be
positioned in Boyd as a separate operating unit managed by the current Coast Casinos
management. In the merger, each issued and outstanding share of Coast Casinos common stock
held by each Coast Casinos stockholder (other than Michael J. Gaughan, the Chairman and
Chief Executive Officer of Coast Casinos, Jerry Herbst, a director and the Treasurer of
Coast Casinos, and Franklin Toti, a director and the Vice President of Casino Operations
of Coast Casinos) will be converted into the right to receive $550 in cash, unless an
election is made by such Coast Casinos stockholder to receive 32.8025 shares of Boyd
Gaming common stock for such share of Coast Casinos common stock. The maximum aggregate
number of shares of Boyd Gaming common stock issuable in the merger to Coast Casinos
stockholders, other than Messrs. Gaughan and Toti, will be 1,009,194 shares, unless an
adjustment is required in order to qualify the merger as a reorganization within the
meaning of Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. The amount of
stock consideration and cash consideration that each Coast Casinos stockholder, other than
Messrs. Gaughan and Toti, will be entitled to receive at the effective time of the merger
will have an aggregate value of at least $550 per share of Coast Casinos common stock
exchanged in the merger. Because the aggregate number of shares of Boyd Gaming common
stock that may be issued in the merger is limited to 1,009,194 shares, it is possible that
a substantial portion of the merger consideration received by each such Coast Casinos
stockholder will be in the form of cash consideration, regardless of the election made by
such stockholder.


At
the effective time of the merger, each issued and outstanding share of Coast Casinos
common stock held by Messrs. Gaughan and Toti will be converted into the right to receive
32.8025 shares of Boyd Gaming common stock. In addition, each issued and outstanding share
of Coast Casinos common stock held by Mr. Herbst will be converted into the right to
receive $550 in cash. The merger was approved in April 2004 by the stockholders of both
Coast Casinos and Boyd, and is subject to gaming and other government and regulatory
approvals and other customary closing conditions. Stockholders of the Company,
representing approximately 56% of the voting power of Coast Casinos shares, have agreed
for a period of two years to vote their shares in favor of the Boyd merger and against any
other combination. Should, however, the merger agreement be terminated as a result of
certain matters set forth therein and, within 30 months after the date of the merger
agreement, Coast Casinos enters into a takeover transaction with another entity, a $30.0
million termination fee will be payable to Boyd Gaming on the date of consummation of such
takeover transaction. The merger is expected to be completed immediately upon receipt of
necessary third party approvals. However, no assurance can be given that all conditions to
the consummation of the merger will be satisfied or that the merger will be consummated.


If
the merger with Boyd is consummated, holders of the senior subordinated notes will have
the right to require the surviving corporation in the merger to purchase the outstanding
senior subordinated notes at a purchase price of 101% of the principal amount plus accrued
and unpaid interest. Additionally, the consummation of the merger will result in a change
of control that will result in a default under the credit agreement. Boyd has advised the
Company that it intends to refinance the Companys bank indebtedness upon
consummation of the merger and will purchase any senior subordinated notes tendered for
purchase by the holders thereof in accordance with the terms of the indenture governing
the senior subordinated notes. However, no assurance can be given that all conditions to
the consummation of the merger will be satisfied or that the merger will be consummated.

|In
March 1999, the Company issued $175.0 million principal amount of 9.5% senior subordinated
notes with interest payable on April 1 and October 1 of each year through their maturity
in March 2009. On February 2, 2001, the Company issued an additional $50.0 million
principal amount of senior subordinated notes. The net proceeds of approximately $49.1
million were used to reduce borrowings under its senior secured credit facility. On March
19, 2002, the Company issued an additional $100.0 million principal amount of senior
subordinated notes. The notes were issued at a $5.0 million premium to par value and the
net proceeds of approximately $103.2 million were used to reduce borrowings under the
senior secured credit facility. The notes issued in 2001 and 2002 were issued under the
same indenture and have the same terms, interest rate and maturity date as the $175.0
million principal amount of senior subordinated notes issued in 1999. Coast Casinos is a
full and unconditional guarantor of this indebtness.


In
February 2003, the Company borrowed $18.0 million under a secured loan agreement,
collateralized by a Company-owned aircraft. The proceeds were used to reduce borrowings
under the then existing credit facility. The loan bears interest at a premium of 2.25%
over the 30-day London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR), which is adjusted
monthly. As of March 31, 2004, the interest rate was 3.34%, and for the three months ended
March 31, 2004, the weighted average interest rate was 3.36%. Commencing on March 28,
2004, the Company began making required monthly principal payments of $120,000 plus
interest on the unpaid balance. A balloon payment of the remaining principal balance is
due in February 2009.

NOTE 2  LONG-TERM
DEBT (continued)


In
September 2003, the Company replaced its senior secured revolving credit facility due
September 2004 with a $300.0 million senior secured credit facility due September 2008,
comprised of a $225.0 million revolving credit facility and a $75.0 million term loan.
Subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, the Company may increase the
commitments under the senior secured credit facility by up to $50.0 million. Coast Casinos
is a full and unconditional guarantor of this indebtedness. Borrowings under the senior
secured credit facility bear interest, selected at the Companys option, at a premium
over a base rate or the one-, two-, three- or six-month Eurodollar Rate
(Eurodollar). The premium varies depending on a certain financial ratio and
can vary, if determined by reference to the base rate, between 0.5% and 1.25% and, if
determined by reference to Eurodollar, between 1.75% and 2.5%. As of March 31, 2004, using
the one-month Eurodollar option, the premium over Eurodollar was 2.00% and the interest
rate was 3.09%. For the three months ended March 31, 2004, the weighted average interest
rate for the senior secured credit facility was 3.11%. The Company incurs a commitment
fee, payable quarterly in arrears, on the unused portion of the senior secured credit
facility. This fee varies depending on a certain financial ratio and can vary between
0.375% and 0.5% per annum. As of March 31, 2004, the fee was 0.375% per annum times the
average unused portion of the facility.


In
accordance with the terms of the senior secured credit facility, commencing on December
31, 2005 and each quarter thereafter, the Company is required to repay the $75.0 million
term loan in an amount equal to 8.3333% of the principal amount of the term loan then
outstanding. Advances under the senior secured credit facility may be used for working
capital, general corporate purposes, and certain improvements to existing properties. As
of March 31, 2004, all of the $75.0 million term loan was outstanding and $30.0 million
was drawn on the $225.0 million revolving line of credit with $194.9 million of
availability remaining (net of a letter of credit of $119,000).


The
credit agreement governing the senior secured credit facility contains covenants that,
among other things, limit the ability of the Company to pay dividends or make advances to
Coast Casinos, to make certain capital expenditures, to repay certain existing
indebtedness, to incur additional indebtedness or to sell material assets of the Company.
Additionally, the credit agreement requires that the Company maintain certain financial
ratios with respect to its leverage and fixed charge coverage. The Company is also subject
to certain covenants associated with the indenture governing the senior subordinated
notes, including, in part, limitations on certain restricted payments, the incurrence of
additional indebtedness and asset sales. Management believes that, at March 31, 2004, the
Company was in compliance with all covenants and required ratios.

Item 2.  Managements
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations


Critical Accounting
Policies and Estimates


We
have identified the following critical accounting policies that affect our more
significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our financial statements.
The preparation of our financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America requires that we make estimates and
judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and
expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going
basis, we evaluate those estimates, including those related to asset impairment, accruals
for slot marketing points, self-insurance, compensation and related benefits, revenue
recognition, allowance for doubtful accounts, contingencies and litigation. These
estimates are based on the information that is currently available to us and on various
other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results
could vary from those estimates under different assumptions or conditions.


We
believe that the following critical accounting policies require significant judgments and
estimates used in the preparation of our financial statements:
|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | o | We
recognize revenue as net wins and losses occur in our casinos, upon the occupancy of our
hotel rooms, upon the delivery of food, beverage and other services, and upon performance
for entertainment revenue. Wagers received on all sporting events are recorded as a
liability until the final outcome of the event when the payoffs, if any, can be
determined. In accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force Issue 00-22, cash discounts and
certain other cash incentives related to gaming play are recorded as a reduction to gross
casino revenues.
| | - | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | o | We
maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the
inability of our customers to make required payments, which results in bad debt expense.
We determine the adequacy of this allowance by continually evaluating individual customer
receivables, considering the customers financial condition, credit history and
current economic conditions. If the financial condition of customers were to deteriorate,
resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances may
be required.
| | - | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | o | We
maintain accruals for health and workers compensation self-insurance and slot club point
redemption, which are classified as accrued liabilities in the balance sheets. We
determine the adequacy of these accruals by periodically evaluating the historical
experience and projected trends related to these accruals. If such information indicates
that the accruals are overstated or understated, we will adjust the assumptions utilized
in the methodologies and reduce or provide for additional accruals as appropriate.
| | - | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | o | We
are subject to various claims and legal actions in the ordinary course of business. Some
of these matters include personal injuries to customers and damage to customerspersonal
assets. We estimate guest claims and accrue for such liability based on historical
experience in accrued liabilities in the balance sheets.

Critical Accounting
Policies and Estimates (continued)
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | o | At
March 31, 2004, we had net property and equipment of $743.0 million, representing
approximately 89.0% of our total assets. We depreciate the property and equipment on a
straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. The estimated useful lives are
based on the nature of the assets as well as our current operating strategy. Future
events, such as property expansions, property developments, new competition and new
regulations, could result in a change in the manner in which we are using certain assets,
requiring a change in the estimated useful lives of such assets. In assessing the
recoverability of the carrying value of property and equipment, if events and
circumstances warrant such an assessment, we must make assumptions regarding estimated
future cash flows and other factors. If these estimates or the related assumptions
change, we may be required to record an impairment loss for these assets. Such an
impairment loss would be recognized as a non-cash component of operating income.
| | - | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | o | We
have entered into lease agreements where the rental payments increase on a periodic
basis. We recognize the related rent expense on the straight-line method over the term of
the agreements. Deferred rent is recorded to reflect the excess of rent expense over cash
payments since the inception of the leases.

The
following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, certain financial information

Item 2.  Managements
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued)


Three Months Ended March
31, 2004 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2003


In
the three months ended March 31, 2004, we experienced increases in revenues, operating
income and net income. Revenues were $164.6 million in the quarter compared to $146.4
million in the first quarter of 2003, an increase of 12.4%. Revenues improved at all four
of our hotel-casinos, primarily in the gaming area, but food and beverage, hotel and other
revenues were also up at all four properties. The improved revenues contributed to
operating income of $37.4 million in the quarter ended March 31, 2004 compared to $29.7
million in 2003, an increase of 25.9%. Net income in the quarter was $18.1 million
compared to $13.7 million in 2003, an increase of 32.1%.


Casino.Casino
revenues were $118.5 million in the three months ended March 31, 2004           compared
to $107.9 million in the same period in 2003, an increase of 9.8%.           Casino
revenues at all four of our hotel-casinos increased due to higher           customer
wagering volume. Casino expenses increased 6.9%, primarily in payroll,           payroll
related costs and promotions at The Orleans and the Suncoast, in line           with the
increased customer wagering activity at those properties. The casino           operating
margin improved to 61.0% compared to 59.9% in 2003 as the increased           costs were
more than offset by the improved revenues.


Food and Beverage.  Food and beverage revenues were $31.2 million in the first quarter
of 2004 compared to $28.5 million in 2003, an increase of 9.5% as revenues improved at all
four of our hotel-casinos primarily due to increased customer visitation and slightly
higher prices. Food and beverage expenses increased by 4.8%, primarily due to January 2004
wage increases, contributing to an improved food and beverage operating margin of 29.4%
compared to 26.3% in 2003.


Hotel.  Hotel
revenues were $16.1 million in the quarter ended March 31, 2004           compared to
$13.2 million in 2003, an increase of 22.0%, in line with an overall           increase
in demand for rooms in the quarter throughout Las Vegas. Gold Coast           room
occupancy increased to 94.2% in the quarter compared to 86.8% in the prior           year
and its average daily room rate increased by $5.00. The Orleans room           occupancy
increased to 95.0% compared to 85.7% in the prior year and its average           daily
room rate increased by $4.68. Room occupancy at the Suncoast was flat at           86%,
but its average daily room rate increased by $17.60. Occupancy at the           Barbary
Coast increased slightly, and its average daily room rate increased by           $10.60.
Hotel expenses increased by 10.3% in the quarter, contributing to an           improved
hotel operating margin of 64.5% compared to 60.7% in the first quarter           of 2003.


     Other.  Other revenues are derived primarily from bowling, retail, entertainment and
          leased facilities, including coffee outlets and a variety of restaurants. In the
          quarter ended March 31, 2004, other revenues were $13.1 million compared to
          $10.0 million in the first quarter of 2003, an increase of 31.0%, primarily due
          to a 59.7% increase at The Orleans. The arena at The Orleans, which opened in
          May 2003, contributed $2.8 million in revenues in the quarter from concerts and
          sporting events. Other expenses increased by $2.5 million (31.9%), primarily due
          to the arena at The Orleans.


General
and Administrative.  General and administrative expenses were $29.3 million in the
first quarter of 2004 compared to $27.1 million in 2003, an increase of 8.1%, primarily
due to approximately $1.2
million in payroll and related costs for corporate and property-level management and
approximately $400,000 in expenses related to the pursuit of possible business
opportunities outside of Nevada.


Depreciation
and Amortization.  Depreciation and amortization expense was $12.7 million in the first
quarter of 2004 compared to $11.4 million in 2003, an increase of 11.4% primarily due to
the depreciation of the Orleans Arena, completed in May 2003.

Other
Income (Expenses).  Net interest expense was $9.3 million in each of the quarters ended
March 31, 2004 and 2003. A lower aggregate indebtedness and lower weighted average
interest rate on our bank facility in 2004 was offset by a higher bank facility commitment
fee in 2004 due to the increase in the size of the facility in September 2003. Capitalized
interest was $28,000 in the first quarter compared to $883,000 in the first quarter of
2003. Capitalized interest in 2003 included interest on the Orleans Arena that was
completed in the second quarter of that year.
Liquidity and Capital
Resources


Our
principal sources of liquidity have consisted of cash provided by operating activities and
debt financing. Cash provided by operating activities was $40.0 million in the three
months ended March 31, 2004, compared to $30.5 million in the same period in 2003.


Cash
used in investing activities, which was primarily for capital expenditures, was $14.9
million in the first three months of 2004, compared to $48.8 million in 2003. In the first
three months of 2004, cash used for capital expenditures was $16.2 million, including $3.6
million for the hotel tower and swimming pool expansion project at The Orleans, $1.6
million for a new electronic sign at the Gold Coast, $4.7 million for design work on our
newest hotel-casino project, the South Coast, and approximately $3.2 million for
maintenance capital expenditures. In the first three months of 2003, cash used for capital
expenditures was $48.8 million which was primarily used for expansion projects at The
Orleans and the Gold Coast and the purchase of land at the Barbary Coast.


Cash
used in financing activities was $26.9 million in the three months ended March 31, 2004,
primarily to pay a net amount of $21.0 million down on borrowings under our senior secured
credit and for advances to Coast Casinos to fund its dividend payments made during the
first quarter. Cash provided by financing activities was $21.8 million in the first
quarter of 2003, primarily from $17.8 million in net proceeds from the financing of our
aircraft and $20.0 million in proceeds from borrowings under the senior secured credit
facility, net of issuance costs, offset by $21.0 million in repayments of borrowings under
the credit facility.

Item 2.  Managements
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued)


Liquidity and Capital
Resources (continued)


In
March 1999, we issued $175.0 million principal amount of 9.5% senior subordinated notes
due in 2009 with interest payable on April 1 and October 1 of each year through their
maturity in March 2009. On February 2, 2001, we issued an additional $50.0 million
principal amount of senior subordinated notes. The net proceeds of approximately $49.1
million were used to reduce borrowings under the then existing credit facility. On March
19, 2002, we issued an additional $100.0 million principal amount of its senior
subordinated notes. The notes were issued at a premium and the net proceeds of $103.2
million were used to reduce borrowings under the then existing credit facility. The notes
issued in 2001 and 2002 were issued under the same indenture and have the same terms,
interest rate and maturity date as the original $175.0 million principal amount of senior
subordinated notes issued in 1999.


In
February 2003, we borrowed $18.0 million under a secured loan agreement, collateralized by
our Canadair Challenger aircraft. The proceeds were used to reduce borrowings under the
then existing credit facility. The loan bears interest at a premium of 2.25% over the
30-day London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR), which is adjusted monthly. As of
March 31, 2004, the interest rate was 3.34%, and for the three months ended March 31,
2004, the weighted average interest rate was 3.36%. Payments of interest only were
required during the first twelve months. As of March 28, 2004, we are required to make
monthly principal payments of $120,000 plus interest on the unpaid balance. A balloon
payment of the remaining principal balance is due in February 2009.


In
September 2003, we replaced our existing credit facility with a $300.0 million senior
secured credit facility due September 2008, represented by a $225.0 million revolving
credit facility and a $75.0 million term loan. Subject to the satisfaction of certain
conditions, we may increase the commitments under the senior secured credit facility by up
to $50.0 million. Coast Casinos is a full and unconditional guarantor of the indebtedness
under both of these debt agreements. Borrowings under the senior secured credit facility
bear interest, selected monthly at our option, at a premium over the base rate or the
one-, two-, three- or six-month Eurodollar Rate (Eurodollar). The premium
varies depending on a certain financial ratio and can vary, if determined by reference to
the base rate, between 0.5% and 1.25% and, if determined by reference to Eurodollar,
between 1.75% and 2.5%. As of March 31, 2004, using the one-month Eurodollar option, the
premium over Eurodollar was 2.00% and the interest rate was 3.09%. For the three months
ended March 31, 2004, the weighted average interest rate for the senior secured credit
facility was 3.11%. We incur a commitment fee, payable quarterly in arrears, on the unused
portion of the senior secured credit facility. This fee varies depending on a certain
financial ratio and can vary between 0.375% and 0.5% per annum. As of March 31, 2004, the
fee was 0.375% per annum times the average unused portion of the facility.


In
accordance with the terms of the senior secured credit facility, commencing on December
31, 2005 and each quarter thereafter, we are required to repay the $75.0 million term loan
in an amount equal to 8.3333% of the principal amount of the term loan then outstanding.
Advances under the senior secured credit facility may be used for working capital, general
corporate purposes, and certain improvements to existing properties. As of March 31, 2004,
all of the $75.0 million term loan was outstanding and $30.0 million was drawn on the
$225.0 million revolving line of credit with approximately $194.9 million of availability
remaining (net of a letter of credit of $119,000).

Item 2.  Managements
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued)



Liquidity and Capital
Resources (continued)


The
credit agreement governing the senior secured credit facility contains covenants that,
among other things, limit our ability to pay dividends or make advances to Coast Casinos,
to make certain capital expenditures, to repay certain existing indebtedness, to incur
additional indebtedness or to sell material assets. Additionally, the credit agreement
requires that we maintain certain financial ratios with respect to leverage and fixed
charge coverage. We are also subject to certain covenants associated with the indenture
governing its senior subordinated notes, including, in part, limitations on certain
restricted payments, the incurrence of additional indebtedness and asset sales. At March
31, 2004, we were in compliance with all covenants and required ratios.
Construction Projects


We
own approximately 55 acres of land located in a gaming enterprise district on Las Vegas
Boulevard South, adjacent to Interstate 15 and approximately 6 miles south of Tropicana
Avenue. In April 2004, we broke ground at the site for our newest hotel-casino, the South
Coast, and expect to complete it in the fourth quarter of 2005. The South Coast is
expected to include 685 rooms and suites, 2,400 slot machines, 60 table games, 7
restaurants, 16 movie theaters, race and sports books, bingo, bowling, an equestrian
events center and 150,000 square feet of convention, exhibit and banquet space. The
preliminary budget for the construction and furnishing of the South Coast project was
approximately $350 million, but recent substantial increases in the costs of building
materials and certain changes in scope will cause the cost of the project to exceed that
amount. Construction plans are still being developed and the extent of the increase has
not yet been determined. Through March 31, 2004, we had capitalized $20.7 million on the
project, primarily for architecture and design, and $11.9 million for the purchase of the
land.


In
the fourth quarter of 2003, we began construction of a new hotel tower at The Orleans. The
project includes 461 hotel rooms and a remodeled and expanded swimming pool area. The
project has a budget of $40.0 million and we expect to complete it in the fourth quarter
of 2004. Through March 31, 2004, we had capitalized $3.2 million on the project.


The
construction projects are expected to be paid for through borrowings under our senior
secured credit facility until such time as the merger with Boyd is completed. At that
time, we anticipate that the projects will be financed by Boyd. There are no assurances
that our construction projects will be completed within budget or the anticipated time
frame, or that the merger will be completed or that Boyd will be able to obtain suitable
financing to complete the projects. If the merger is not completed, it will be necessary
for us to obtain financing for the completion of the South Coast project.


In
the ordinary course of operating our hotel-casinos, it is necessary to upgrade or replace
fixtures and equipment and to make improvements that will extend the life of our physical
plants. We anticipate that these maintenance capital expenditures will total approximately
$20.0 million in 2004.

Other Matters


In
May 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No. 150, Accounting
for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of Both Liabilities and Equity
(SFAS 150). SFAS 150 establishes standards for how an issuer classifies and
measures certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and
equity. It requires that an issuer classify a financial instrument that is within its
scope as a liability (or an asset in some circumstances). As the Companys equity
securities are not publicly traded, the Company is a nonpublic entity as defined by SFAS
150. This pronouncement became effective January 1, 2004. The adoption of SFAS 150 did not
have an impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows as the
Company does not have any such financial instruments.


On
February 6, 2004, Coast Casinos entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with Boyd
Gaming Corporation and BGC, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Boyd. Under the terms of
the merger agreement, Coast Casinos will merge into a subsidiary of Boyd and become a
wholly owned subsidiary of Boyd, and each outstanding share of our common stock will be
converted into the right to receive cash, Boyd common stock or a combination of cash and
Boyd common stock. The merger agreement and the merger have been approved by the
stockholders of Coast Casinos and Boyd. Consummation of the merger is subject to customary
closing conditions and receipt of regulatory approvals.


If
the merger with Boyd is consummated, holders of the senior subordinated notes will have
the right to require the surviving corporation in the merger to purchase the outstanding
senior subordinated notes at a purchase price of 101% of the principal amount plus accrued
and unpaid interest. Additionally, the consummation of the merger will result in a change
of control that will result in a default under the credit agreement. Boyd has advised us
that it intends to refinance our bank indebtedness upon
consummation of the merger and will purchase any senior subordinated notes tendered for
purchase by the holders thereof in accordance with the terms of the indenture governing
the senior subordinated notes. However, no assurance can be given that all conditions to
the consummation of the merger will be satisfied or that the merger will be consummated.

Certain Forward-Looking
Statements


This
Form 10-Q includes forward-looking statements within the meaning of the
securities laws. All statements regarding our expected financial position, business
strategies and financing plans under the heading Managements Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and elsewhere in this Form
10-Q are forward-looking statements. In addition, in those and other portions of this Form
10-Q, the words anticipates, believes, estimates,
seeks, expects, plans, intends and similar
expressions, as they relate to Coast Hotels or its management, are intended to identify
forward-looking statements. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in such
forward-looking statements are reasonable, and have based these expectations on our
beliefs as well as assumptions we have made, such expectations may prove to be incorrect.
Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from such
