NOTE 1 - BACKGROUND INFORMATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Background Information

     Coast Hotels and Casinos, Inc. ("The Company"), a Nevada corporation, is a
wholly owned subsidiary of Coast Resorts, Inc. ("Coast Resorts"), which is also
a Nevada corporation. The Company owns and operates the following Las Vegas
hotel-casinos:

     .    Gold Coast Hotel and Casino, approximately one mile west of the Las
          Vegas Strip on Flamingo Road.

     .    Barbary Coast Hotel and Casino, located on the Las Vegas Strip.

     .    The Orleans Hotel and Casino, located approximately one mile west of
          the Las Vegas Strip on Tropicana Avenue.

     The Gold Coast and Barbary Coast hotel-casinos had, prior to January 1996,
been owned and operated independently by two partnerships, Gold Coast Hotel and
Casino, a Nevada limited partnership, and Barbary Coast Hotel and Casino, a
Nevada general partnership (collectively, the "Predecessor Partnerships"). On
January 1, 1996, the partners of the Predecessor Partnerships completed a
reorganization (the "Reorganization") with Coast Resorts. Coast Resorts was
formed in September 1995 for the purpose of effecting such Reorganization of the
Predecessor Partnerships. Coast Resorts, Gold Coast and Barbary Coast were all
related through common ownership and management control.

     In the Reorganization, the partners of the Predecessor Partnerships each
transferred to Coast Resorts their respective partnership interests in the
Predecessor Partnerships in exchange for an aggregate of 1,000,000 shares of
common stock, par value $.01 per share, of Coast Resorts ("Coast Resorts Common
Stock"). Coast Resorts immediately contributed to the Company all of the assets
and liabilities of the Predecessor Partnerships other than those relating to the
Coast West Lease (as defined herein), which Coast Resorts contributed to its
wholly owned subsidiary, Coast West, Inc. ("Coast West"). However, as further
described in Note 2, on July 21, 1998, Coast Resorts contributed all of the
outstanding common stock of Coast West to the Company, making Coast West a
wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The Coast West Lease is a long-term
lease on approximately 50 acres of land in Las Vegas on which the Company may
develop and operate a future hotel-casino. Coast Resorts retained the liability
for an aggregate principal amount of $51.0 million in notes payable to former
partners and retained the liability for $1.5 million relating to demand notes
due to a related party (the "Exchange Liabilities"). On January 16, 1996, the
Exchange Liabilities were exchanged for 494,353 shares of Coast Resorts Common
Stock, based upon management's estimate of the fair market value of such Coast
Resorts Common Stock.

     Certain amounts in the 1997 financial statements have been reclassified to

NOTE 2- COAST WEST

     The Company has agreed to provide advances to Coast West sufficient to make
payments on the Coast West Lease and other obligations, including project
development and site improvement. The Coast West Lease relates to a parcel of
land located in the western area of Las Vegas to be used for future expansion
opportunities. The Coast West Lease term runs through December 31, 2055, with
three 10-year renewal options, with monthly payments of $166,667 for the year
ending December 31, 1995. Thereafter the monthly rent increases by the amount of
$5,000 in January of each year. The lease includes a put option exercisable by
the landlord requiring the purchase of the land at fair market value at the end
of the 20th through 24th years of the lease, provided that the purchase price
shall not be less than ten times, nor more than fifteen times, the annual rent
at such time. Based on the terms of the lease, the potential purchase price
commitment ranges from approximately $31.0 million to approximately $51.0
million in the years 2014 through 2018.

     In January 1996, the Company issued $175.0 million principal amount of 13%
first mortgage notes due 2002 ("13% First Mortgage Notes"). The indenture
governing the 13% First Mortgage Notes (the "Indenture") limited the amount
outstanding under advances to Coast West to $8.0 million unless Coast West
became a subsidiary of the Company. Based on the cash requirements of Coast West
for lease payments and anticipated development costs, it was likely that by
September 1998 Coast West would require cash from the Company that, when added
to the outstanding advances from the Company, would exceed $8.0 million. On July
21, 1998, Coast Resorts contributed the capital stock of Coast West to the
Company, as a result of which Coast West became a wholly owned subsidiary of the
Company. Coast West remains a guarantor of the 13% First Mortgage Notes.
Pursuant to the terms of the Indenture, the Company may make advances to its
wholly owned subsidiaries without limit.

     As of the date of the stock transfer, Coast West had total assets of
$3,615,000, total liabilities of $12,570,000 (which includes $7,699,000 due to
the Company and $4,871,000 of deferred rent), and a cumulative retained deficit
of $8,955,000. Additionally, the Company had recorded an allowance for doubtful
accounts in connection with advances provided to Coast West for lease payments.
On the date of the stock transfer, the total allowance for bad debt expense
recorded by the Company in relation to those advances was $5,769,000. Upon the
transfer of Coast West stock, the Company wrote off this allowance for doubtful
accounts to retained earnings and recorded the assumption of the $8,955,000 of
net liabilities of Coast West as a decrease in additional paid-in capital.

Coast West is a development stage enterprise and has no source of income and is
therefore solely dependent on the advances to be provided by the Company. There
can be no assurance that Coast West will develop a gaming property at the Coast
West site or that it will be able to repay any advances made by the Company.

     alternatives to operating income as an indicator of the company's operating
     performance, or as alternatives to cash provided by operating activities as
     an indicator of cash flows or a measure of liquidity. EBITDA and EBITDAR
     are presented solely as supplemental disclosure because management believes
     that they are widely used measures of financial performance in the gaming
     industry.

ITEM 2.   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
          RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

     Three Months Ended September 30, 1998 Compared to Three Months Ended
September 30, 1997 and Nine Months Ended September 30, 1998 Compared to Nine
Months Ended September 30, 1997

     Net revenues, operating income and net income all improved in the quarter
ended and nine months ended September 30, 1998, primarily due to improved
revenues at the Company's newest hotel-casino, The Orleans. Net revenues in the
quarter ended September 30, 1998 were $83.1 million compared to $70.4 million in
the same quarter of 1997, an increase of 17.9%. For the nine months ended
September 30, 1998, net revenues were $244.1 million compared to $215.1 million
in the same period in 1997, an increase of 13.4%. Operating income in the third
quarter of 1998 was $7.7 million compared to $4.0 million in the third quarter
of 1997, an increase of 93.6%. For the nine months ended September 30, 1998,
operating income was $28.6 million, an increase of 151.6% over operating income
of $11.4 million in the same period in 1997. For the quarter and nine months
ended September 30, 1998, cash and deferred land lease expenses increased as a
result of the Company acquiring Coast West and its related deferred lease
expense by Coast Resorts contributing the Coast West stock to the Company on
July 21, 1998. Net income in the quarter ended September 30, 1998 was $635,000
compared to a net loss of $1.3 million in the third quarter of 1997. For the
nine months ended September 30, 1998, net income was $5.7 million compared to a
net loss of $5.0 million in 1997.

     The Orleans. The Orleans opened in December 1996 and generated lower-than-
expected revenues in the first half of 1997. During the second half of 1997, the
property expanded its customer base through increased promotional activities,
the use of headliner entertainment in its showroom and, in December 1997, the
opening of twelve new movie theaters. Net revenues in the three months ended
September 30, 1998 were $41.5 million, an increase of 40.4% over revenues of
$29.6 million in the same quarter in 1997. For the nine month period ended
September 30, 1998, net revenues were $117.7 million, an increase of 34.2%
compared to the first nine months of 1997. Casino revenues were up in the third
quarter of 1998 (47.1%) and in the nine months ended September 30, 1998 (39.1%),
primarily as a result of increased slot machine activity. Increased customer
volume led to an increase in food and beverage revenues of 25.0% in the quarter
ended September 30, 1998 and an increase of 24.3% in the nine months ended
September 30, 1998. Hotel revenues increased slightly in the quarter and year-
to-date, primarily as a result of increased occupancy. Other revenues increased
in the third quarter and year-to-date due primarily to higher showroom revenue.
Operating expenses increased 24.6% in the third quarter of 1998, primarily due
to company-wide employee wage increases in July and increased casino promotional
activities. Additionally, the opening in December 1997 of twelve movie theaters
and additional gaming space, coupled with higher summer utility rates, caused an
increase in utilities expenses. Operating expenses in the nine months ended
September 30, 1998 increased 15.2% compared to the first three quarters in 1997,
primarily due to the increased casino promotions. Other expenses were up 26.3%
for the nine months due to the higher-priced headliner entertainers in the
showroom. Despite the increase in operating expenses, operating income increased
by $4.7 million in the quarter and by $16.5 million year-to-date.

     Gold Coast. Net revenues in the three months ended September 30, 1998
increased $1.1 million (3.5%) to $31.1 million compared to $30.0 million in the
third quarter of 1997, primarily as a result of increased slot machine activity.
For the nine months ended September 30, 1998 net revenues were relatively flat
compared to the same period in 1997, increasing 0.6% to $94.5 million compared
to $94.0 million in 1997. A 3.7% increase in casino revenues was partially
offset by slight decreases in food, beverage and hotel revenues. Operating
income in the third quarter of 1998 was $5.1 million, an increase of 5.9% over
third quarter 1997 operating income of $4.8 million. The increased revenues were
partially offset by increased casino promotional expenses as well as company-
wide employee wage increases in July 1998. Operating income in the first nine
months of 1998 was $18.1 million, an increase of 7.6% over operating income of
$16.8 million in the first nine months of 1997. Reduced staffing and lower
food and beverage cost of sales contributed to lower operating expenses in the
nine months.

     Barbary Coast. Net revenues in the three months ended September 30, 1998
decreased 3.5% to $10.5 million compared to $10.9 million in the three months
ended September 30, 1997, primarily as a result of a decrease in table games win
percentages, the removal of live keno and lower wagering volume in the race
book. For the nine months ended September 30, 1998, net revenues were $31.9
million, down $1.6 million (4.9%) compared to the same period in 1997 primarily
due to a lower-than-expected table games win percentage. For the third quarter,
the Barbary Coast had an operating loss of $152,000 compared to operating income
of $611,000 in the third quarter of 1997. For the nine months ended September
30, 1998, operating income was $541,000 compared to $518,000 in the same period
in 1997. Operating expenses increased $387,000 (3.8%) in the third quarter of
1998 compared to the same period in 1997, primarily due to increased promotional
expenses in the slot machine area. For the nine months ended September 30, 1998,
operating expenses decreased $1.7 million (5.1%), primarily due to lower race
book expenses attributable to a reduction in business in that area.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     The Company's principal sources of liquidity have consisted of cash
provided by operating activities and debt financing. Cash provided by operating
activities was $31.6 million in the first nine months of 1998, an increase of
$22.0 million over the same period in 1997, primarily due to the Company's
increased profitability discussed above.

     In January 1996, the Company issued $175.0 million principal amount of 13%
first mortgage notes due 2002 ("13% First Mortgage Notes"). Additionally, in
November 1997, the Company issued $16.8 million principal amount of 10 7/8%
first mortgage notes due 2001 ("10 7/8% First Mortgage Notes"). The indentures
pursuant to which the 13% First Mortgage Notes and the 10 7/8% First Mortgage
Notes were issued ("the Indentures") contain covenants that, among other things,
limit the ability of the Company to pay dividends or make advances to Coast
Resorts, repay subordinated indebtedness, incur additional indebtedness, or sell
material assets as defined in the Indentures.

     The Company's cash requirements, in addition to interest which is
anticipated to be approximately $27.0 million in 1998, include annual principal
payments of approximately $7.5 million on the equipment notes payable, land
lease payments of approximately $4.3 million, ongoing maintenance capital
expenditures at its existing facilities and periodic enhancements to those
facilities. The Company's maintenance capital expenditures for 1997 were
approximately $9.2 million. Management expects that maintenance capital
expenditures for 1998 will be approximately $10.5 million. Management believes
that existing cash balances and operating cash flow will provide the Company
with sufficient resources to meet its existing debt and lease payment
obligations and foreseeable capital expenditure requirements at the Company's
existing properties.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES (CONTINUED)

     The Company agreed to provide advances to Coast West sufficient to make
payments on the Coast West Lease and other obligations, including project
development and site improvement. Pursuant to the Indenture under which the 13%
First Mortgage Notes were issued, the advances to Coast West could not exceed
$8.0 million in aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding unless Coast
West became a subsidiary of the Company. Based on the cash requirements of Coast
West for lease payments and anticipated development costs, it was likely that by
September 1998 Coast West would require cash from the Company that, when added
to the outstanding advances from the Company, would exceed $8.0 million. On July
21, 1998, Coast Resorts contributed the capital stock of Coast West to the
Company, as a result of which Coast West became a wholly owned subsidiary of the
Company. Coast West remains a guarantor of the 13% First Mortgage Notes.
Pursuant to the terms of the Indenture, the Company may make advances to its
wholly owned subsidiaries without limit.

     The Company has no agreements, arrangements or understandings with respect
to financing the development of future properties. Any future development would
be subject to, among other things, the Company's ability to obtain necessary
financing.

 YEAR 2000

     Many currently installed computer systems and other equipment with embedded
computer chips cannot recognize dates after December 31, 1999. Beginning in the
year 2000, companies with such systems, software or equipment may experience
difficulties due to their reliance on them. This situation involving the year
2000 is commonly referred to as the "Y2K" problem.

     The Company utilizes computer systems in virtually all areas of its hotel-
casino operations. Should the Company or certain of its vendors not be "Y2K
compliant," the operations of its hotel-casinos could be disrupted for an
indeterminate period of time, potentially having a material adverse impact on
its results of operations. Possible consequences of the Company not being Y2K
compliant include, but are not limited to, problems with the compiling of
financial information in the Company's back-office accounting, purchasing,
inventory and payroll systems. Additionally, disruptions could occur to hotel
reservations operations, hotel check-in/check-out procedures, point-of-sale
transactions in food, beverage and retail areas, race and sports book wagering
and the updating and accumulation of slot machine player marketing information.
Additionally, embedded microchips in certain systems such as elevators,
escalators and the heating, ventilation and air conditioning could lead to
interruptions in service. All of these problems could inconvenience hotel and
casino customers, resulting in a loss of business.

     The Company could also be exposed to Y2K problems should certain of its
suppliers have disruptions to their operations due to Year 2000 problems. The
Company does not consider these problems to be as significant as those with its
own systems because in most instances it could find alternate vendors for its
supplies, but Y2K problems for certain suppliers, such as utility providers,
could result in disruptions to hotel-casino operations for an indeterminate
period of time. Additionally, should providers of financial services such as
ATM's, credit card processing and credit card cash advance experience Y2K
problems, the Company's operations could be adversely affected.

          RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

YEAR 2000 (CONTINUED)

     The Company recognizes the need to ensure its operations will not be
adversely affected by Y2K and has taken steps to update its systems, where
necessary, including replacing or updating software and equipment.  Since 1997,
the Company's Management Information Systems department has attempted to
identify all areas where Y2K could pose a problem.  To assist them in their
effort and to further help identify potential problem areas, in October 1998 the
Company  retained the services of an advisor to review the Company's Y2K
program.

     As of November 1, 1998, the Company has identified and updated or is in the
process of updating those systems and programs that it deems most critical to
the day-to-day operations of its hotel-casinos. The Company currently uses Year
2000 compliant J.D. Edwards software for its accounting, human resources,
payroll, inventory and purchasing systems. Based on representations from its
vendors, the Company anticipates that its other essential computer systems,
including its hotel front desk and reservations, retail point of sale, bowling
center, race and sports wagering and casino player tracking and marketing
systems, will be Y2K compliant by July 1999, although no assurances can be made
to that effect. It is estimated that the total cost to identify and correct
potential Y2K problems will be approximately $2.0 million, approximately
$200,000 of which has been spent to date. All costs related to software
modification, as well as all costs associated with the Company's Y2K project,
are being expensed as incurred and are included in the cost estimate referred to
above. Although the Company has not developed a Y2K contingency plan to date, it
will continue to assess Y2K risk to determine if such a plan is necessary.


ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

     In September 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive
Income" ("SFAS 130"), which establishes standards for reporting and display of
comprehensive income and its components. SFAS 130 requires a separate statement
to report components of comprehensive income for each period presented. The
provisions of SFAS 130 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December
15, 1997. Management believes that the Company currently does not have items
that would require presentation in a separate statement of comprehensive income.

     In September 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments
of an Enterprise and Related Information" ("SFAS 131"), which supersedes FASB
Statement No. 14, "Financial Reporting for Segments of a Business Enterprise."
SFAS 131 establishes standards for the way that public business enterprises
report information about operating segments in annual financial statements and
requires that those enterprises report selected information about operating
segments in interim financial reports issued to shareholders. SFAS 131 is
effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997 and requires
restatement of earlier periods presented. SFAS 131 will not have a material
effect on the Company's financial statements as the required information is
either currently being presented by the Company or it is not applicable to the
Company.

     In April 1998, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants
issued Statement of Position 98-5 (SOP 98-5), Reporting on the Costs of Start-Up
Activities. SOP 98-5 requires that the Company expense its pre-opening and
related promotional expense as incurred rather than capitalize it and amortize
it over the estimated period of economic benefit of such costs as has been the
Company's policy in the past. Effective January 1, 1998, the Company adopted SOP
98-5. The adoption had no impact on the financial position, results of
operations or cash flows of the Company as all start-up costs previously
capitalized had been expensed in prior periods.
