|In
March 1999, Coast Hotels 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, Coast Hotels 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 Coast Hotels 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.


In
February 2003, Coast Hotels 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 September 30, 2003, the interest rate was 3.36%, and for the nine months
ended September 30, 2003, the weighted average interest rate was 3.48%. Payments of
interest only are required during the first twelve months. Commencing on March 28, 2004,
Coast Hotels will be 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.

NOTE 2  LONG-TERM
DEBT (continued)


In
September 2003, Coast Hotels 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, Coast Hotels 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 the senior secured credit
facility and of the senior subordinated notes. Borrowings under the senior secured credit
facility bear interest, selected at Coast Hotels 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 September 30, 2003, using the one-month
Eurodollar option, the premium over Eurodollar was 2.25% and the interest rate was 3.37%.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2003, the weighted average interest rate for the
senior secured credit facility (including the indebtedness replaced thereby) was 3.44%.
Coast Hotels 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 September 30, 2003, the fee
was 0.5% 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, Coast Hotels 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 September 30, 2003, all of the $75.0 million term loan was outstanding and $63.0
million was drawn on the $225.0 million revolving line of credit with $161.3 million of
availability remaining (net of letters of credit of approximately $700,000).


The
credit agreement governing the senior secured credit facility contains covenants that,
among other things, limit the ability of Coast Hotels 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
or Coast Hotels. Additionally, the credit agreement requires that Coast Hotels maintain
certain financial ratios with respect to its leverage and fixed charge coverage. Coast
Hotels 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. As of September 30, 2003, the
net assets of Coast Hotels amounted to $225.1 million, of which $209.6 million was
restricted under the terms of the indenture governing the senior subordinated notes.
Management believes that, at September 30, 2003, Coast Hotels was in compliance with all
covenants and required ratios.

NOTE 4  EARNINGS PER
SHARE


Basic
net income per common share excludes dilution and is computed by dividing income
applicable to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares
outstanding. Diluted net income per common share is computed based on the weighted-average
number of common shares outstanding after consideration of the dilutive effect of stock
options.


The
computations of basic net income per common share and diluted net income per common share,
for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2003 and 2002, are as follows (in

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. We record cash discounts and certain other cash incentives related to gaming
play be recorded as a reduction to gross casino revenues in accordance with Emerging
Issues Task Force Issue 00-22 (the Issue).
| | - | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | 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 to the extent such claims are not
covered under our existing insurance policies.

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

| | o | At
September 30, 2003, we had net property and equipment of $742.1 million, representing
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 an annual 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.

Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations              (continued)


Three Months Ended
September 30, 2003 Compared to Three Months Ended September 30, 2002 and Nine Months Ended
September 30, 2003 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 2002


In
the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2003, we experienced increases in
revenues, operating income and net income. The increases were primarily due to improved
revenues at The Orleans where customer visitation was up as a result of the 586 new hotel
rooms, additional casino space and other amenities added in the August 2002 expansion. The
elimination of construction disruption also improved access for customers, contributing to
the improved operating results.


In
the three months ended September 30, 2003, net revenues were $148.0 million compared to
$130.9 million in the third quarter of 2002, an increase of 13.1% due primarily to a 25.6%
increase at The Orleans for the reasons described above. Net revenues at the Suncoast,
Gold Coast and Barbary Coast also improved in the quarter, primarily due to higher table
games win percentages and increased slot machine play compared to the third quarter of
2002. In the nine months ended September 30, 2003, net revenues were $439.6 million
compared to $402.4 million in 2002, an increase of 9.2%. A 21.4% increase in revenues at
The Orleans contributed to most of the improvement, but revenues at the Suncoast, Gold
Coast and Barbary Coast also improved in the nine months, primarily due to increased slot
machine play.


Operating
income was $22.0 million in the three months ended September 30, 2003 compared to $12.6
million in the same period in 2002, an increase of 75.6%. Operating income increased at
The Orleans by 78.8% in the quarter due to the increases in revenues described above and
by 44.4% at the Suncoast primarily due to increased revenues and lower promotional
expenses. Operating income in the quarter also improved at the Gold Coast and the Barbary
Coast due to the increased revenues described above. In the nine months ended September
30, 2003, operating income was $77.3 million compared to $57.9 million in 2002, an
increase of 33.5%. Most of the improvement in the nine months is attributable to the
increase in revenues at The Orleans. Operating income at the Suncoast improved 18.4%
year-to-date, due primarily to the higher revenues described above and reduced spending on
promotions. Operating income at the Gold Coast and the Barbary Coast also improved in the
nine months ended September 30, 2003 due to improved revenues.


Casino.Casino
revenues were $106.4 million in the three months ended September 30, 2003 compared to $97.3 million in the same period in 2002, an increase of 9.3%.
Casino revenues at The Orleans increased 16.6% in the third quarter of 2003 due to improved customer traffic related to the completion of the recent expansion
project. Third quarter casino revenues at the Suncoast, Gold Coast and Barbary Coast also improved 6.3%, 4.5% and 6.4%, respectively, due to higher table
games win percentages and increased slot machine play.


The increase in casino revenues combined with a decrease in casino operating expenses
contributed to a 58.4% casino operating margin in the quarter compared to 53.7% in the
third quarter of 2002. Casino expenses increased at The Orleans in line with the increased
customer traffic discussed above, but decreased at our other three hotel-casinos due to
reduced spending on promotions.

September 30, 2003 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 2002 (continued)


Casino
(continued).In the nine months ended September 30, 2003, casino revenues were $319.5
million compared to $300.6 million in 2002, an increase of 6.3%. Casino revenues at The
Orleans increased 13.7% in the first nine months of 2003 due to improved customer traffic
related to the completion of the recent expansion project. Casino revenues in the nine
months were up 2.0% at the Suncoast and the Gold Coast and 6.0% at the Barbary Coast due
to the increased slot machine play discussed above. Casino expenses were lower at all four
of our hotel-casinos, resulting in a combined decrease of 3.8% in the nine months ended
September 30, 2003, contributing to an improved casino operating margin of 59.4% compared
to 55.1% in the first nine months of 2002. The lower casino expenses were primarily due to
a company-wide effort to reduce promotional spending.


Food
and Beverage. Food and beverage revenues were $28.7 million in the third quarter of
2003 compared to $27.7 million in 2002, an increase of 3.7%. Food and beverage revenues
were higher in the quarter at all four of our hotel-casinos, but most of the increase was
attributable to The Orleans and the Suncoast due to higher customer volume. Food and
beverage expenses increased 3.6% in the quarter, contributing to a food and beverage
operating margin of 25.4% compared to 25.3% in the third quarter of 2002.


In
the nine months ended September 30, 2003, food and beverage revenues were $85.6 million,
an increase of 2.8% over revenues of $83.3 million in the first nine months of 2002. Most
of the improvement was due to an increase of 8.3% at The Orleans, which was partially
offset by a 3.2% decrease at the Suncoast, primarily in its buffet, which was affected by
aggressive promotions by competitors. Food and beverage expenses increased 2.4% in the
first nine months of 2003, primarily due to the increased customer volume at The Orleans.
The food and beverage operating margin improved to 25.6% in the first nine months of 2003
compared to 25.3% in 2002.


Hotel.                 Hotel
revenues were $13.1 million in the third quarter of 2003 compared to $9.8
          million in 2002, an increase of 34.0%. The increase was primarily due to the
          opening in August 2002 of 586 new rooms at The Orleans. With the additional
          room nights available at The Orleans in the quarter, an increase of approximately
          32,000 occupied rooms contributed to a 53.9% increase in rooms revenues.
          The percentage of rooms occupied at The Orleans improved to 89.6% in the
quarter           compared to 86.9% in the third quarter of 2002 and the average daily
room rate           improved by $3.00. Room revenues at the Suncoast and the Gold Coast
also           increased in the quarter due to a higher percentage of rooms occupied and
a           higher average daily room rate. Room revenues at the Barbary Coast were
          relatively flat in the quarter, with a slightly higher room rate offset by a
          slightly lower occupancy rate. Hotel expenses in the quarter were $5.5 million
          compared to $4.5 million in 2002, an increase of 22.2%, in line with the
overall           increase in hotel revenues.


In
the nine months ended September 30, 2003, hotel revenues were $39.2 million compared to
$29.8 million in 2002, an increase of 31.5%, primarily due to the new hotel rooms at The
Orleans. Year-to-date, hotel revenues at The Orleans were up 60.0% compared to the first
nine months of 2002. Year-to-date, hotel revenues at the Suncoast, the Gold Coast and the
Barbary Coast were up by 7.9%, 10.1% and 3.0%, respectively. Hotel expenses in the first
nine months of 2003 were $15.9 million compared to $12.5 million in 2002, an increase of
26.4%, in line with the overall increase in hotel revenues.

Other.Other
revenues are derived primarily from bowling, retail, entertainment and           leased
facilities. In the quarter ended September 30, 2003, other revenues were           $12.8
million compared to $9.9 million in 2002, an increase of 29.1%, primarily           due
to a 63.3% increase at The Orleans. The arena at The Orleans, which opened           in
May 2003, contributed $2.7 million in revenues in the quarter from concerts           and
sporting events. Other revenues at the Suncoast, the Gold Coast and the           Barbary
Coast were flat compared to the prior year. Other expenses in the           quarter
increased by $4.6 million (64.3%), primarily due to the arena at The           Orleans.
Year-to-date, other revenues were $34.2 million compared to $29.0           million in
the first nine months of 2002, an increase of 17.8% primarily due to           the arena
at The Orleans. Other expenses increased year-to-date by $8.3 million           (38.7%),
due to costs related to the arena.


General
and Administrative. General and administrative expenses were $28.4 million in the
third quarter of 2003 compared to $27.4 million in 2002, an increase of 3.7%, primarily
due to increases in payroll and property taxes. Payroll and related costs were affected by
increased staffing levels at The Orleans due to the recent expansion at that property.
Property taxes were higher due to the expansions at The Orleans and the Gold Coast.
Year-to-date, general and administrative expenses were $80.5 million compared to $75.9
million in the first nine months of 2002, an increase of 6.1%, also due primarily to the
increased payroll, payroll related costs and property taxes described above, as well as to
increased utilities expenses related to the expansion at The Orleans.


Depreciation
and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense was $12.6 million in the third
quarter of 2003 compared to $11.5 million in 2002, an increase of 9.7% due to the
depreciation of completed expansion and remodeling projects at The Orleans and the Gold
Coast. In the nine months ended September 30, 2003, depreciation and amortization expense
was $36.2 million compared to $30.9 million in 2002, an increase of 16.9%, also due to the
reasons described above.


Other
Income (Expenses).Net interest expense was $9.3 million in the third quarter of 2003
compared to $8.8 million in 2002, an increase of 5.1% due primarily to higher aggregate
indebtedness related to the completed expansion and remodeling projects at The Orleans and
the Gold Coast. In the nine months ended September 30, 2003, net interest expense was
$27.9 million compared to $23.9 million in the first nine months of 2002, an increase of
17.1% due to the higher aggregate indebtedness described above. Capitalized interest was
$25,000 in the third quarter compared to $923,000 in the third quarter of 2002. The
decrease was due to the completion prior to the third quarter of the expansion and
remodeling projects at The Orleans and the Gold Coast. Capitalized interest was $1.2
million in the first nine months of 2003 compared to $2.4 million in the same period in
2002. Unamortized costs of $419,000 related to our bank credit facility were written off
in the third quarter of 2003 due to the replacement of that facility with a new one.
Year-to-date, other loss is $117,000, which represents a net loss on disposal of
equipment, compared to other income of $2.4 million in 2002. The prior year income
represented a gain of $2.7 million on the cancellation of an interest rate swap agreement,
offset by a loss of $300,000 on the disposal of equipment.

|The
Orleans occupies a portion of an approximately 80-acre site located on West Tropicana
Avenue, about one mile south of the Gold Coast. We lease the real property under a ground
lease entered into by Coast Hotels and the Tiberti Company, a Nevada general partnership
of which J. Tito Tiberti, a director of both Coast Hotels and Coast Casinos, is managing
partner. The lease had an effective commencement date of October 1, 1995, an initial term
of 50 years, and includes an option, exercisable by us, to extend the initial term for an
additional 25 years. The lease provides for monthly rental payments of $225,000 per month
through February 2006 and $250,000 per month during the 60-month period thereafter. In
March 2011, annual rental payments will increase on a compounding basis at a rate of 3.0%
per annum. In addition, we have been granted an option to purchase the real property
during the two-year period commencing in February 2016. The lease provides that the
purchase price will be the fair market value of the real property at the time we exercise
the option, provided that the purchase price will not be less than 10 times, nor more than
12 times, annual rent at such time.


The
Suncoast is located in the west end of the Las Vegas valley and occupies an approximately
50-acre site that we lease pursuant to a Ground Lease Agreement dated as of October 28,
1994. The initial term of the lease expires on December 31, 2055. The lease contains three
options, exercisable by us, to extend the term of the lease for 10 years each. The lease
provided for monthly rental payments of $166,667 for the year ended December 31, 1995.
Thereafter, the monthly rent increases by the amount of $5,000 in January of each year.
The landlord has the option to require us to purchase the property at the end of 2014,
2015, 2016, 2017 and 2018, at the fair market value of the real property at the time the
landlord exercises the option, provided that the purchase price will not be less than 10
times nor more than 15 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. We have a right of first
refusal in the event the landlord desires to sell the property at any time during the
lease term.

Aggregate Indebtedness
and Fixed Payment Obligations (continued)


The
Barbary Coast occupies approximately 1.8 acres at the intersection of Flamingo Road and
the Strip that we lease pursuant to a lease dated May 1, 1993. The lease provides for
rental payments of $175,000 per year during the initial term of the lease that expired on
May 1, 2003. We have exercised the first of two 30-year options, with rental payments
increasing to $190,000 per year during the first ten years of the renewal period. In
January 2003, we purchased the approximately 2.5 additional acres of real property located
adjacent to the Barbary Coast, which we previously leased, for approximately $18.1
million. We use the 2.5-acre property as a parking lot for our employees and for valet
parking.



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 $82.0 million in the nine months
ended September 30, 2003, compared to $80.2 million in the same period in 2002.


Cash
used in investing activities was primarily for capital expenditures and was $78.6 million
in the first nine months of 2003, compared to $164.7 million in 2002. In the first nine
months of 2003, cash used for capital expenditures was $79.3 million, including $38.3
million for the expansion projects at The Orleans and the Gold Coast, $18.1 million for
the purchase of land at the Barbary Coast, $2.2 million for the completion of luxury
suites at the Suncoast, approximately $500,000 for design work on a proposed hotel-casino
project, the South Coast, $1.2 million for capitalized interest and
approximately $19.0 million for maintenance capital expenditures. In the first nine months
of 2002, cash used for capital expenditures was primarily for the expansion projects at
The Orleans and the Gold Coast.


Cash
provided by financing activities was $10.7 million in the nine months ended September 30,
2003, primarily from $17.8 million in net proceeds from the financing of our aircraft and
$171.6 million in proceeds from borrowings under the senior secured credit facility, net
of issuance costs, offset by $173.5 million in repayments of borrowings under the credit
facility and $5.1 million in cash dividends. In the first nine months of 2002, cash
provided by financing activities was $73.5 million, primarily from $103.2 million in net
proceeds from the issuance of long-term debt and $89.0 million of proceeds from borrowings
under the senior secured credit facility, offset, in part, by $118.5 million in repayments
of borrowings under the credit facility.


In
March 1999, Coast Hotels 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, Coast Hotels 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, Coast Hotels 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.

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


Liquidity and Capital
Resources (continued)


In
February 2003, Coast Hotels 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 September 30, 2003, the interest rate was 3.36%, and for the nine
months ended September 30, 2003, the weighted average interest rate was 3.48%. Payments of
interest only are required during the first twelve months. Commencing on March 28, 2004,
Coast Hotels will be 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, Coast Hotels 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 Coast Hotels 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 September 30, 2003,
using the one-month Eurodollar option, the premium over Eurodollar was 2.25% and the
interest rate was 3.37%. For the nine months ended September 30, 2003, the weighted
average interest rate for the senior secured credit facility (including the indebtedness
replaced thereby was 3.44%. Coast Hotels 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 September 30, 2003, the fee was 0.5% 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, Coast Hotels 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 September 30, 2003, all of the $75.0 million term loan was outstanding and $63.0
million was drawn on the $225.0 million revolving line of credit with $161.3 million of
availability remaining (net of letters of credit of approximately $700,000).


The
credit agreement governing the senior secured credit facility contains covenants that,
among other things, limit Coast Hotels 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 Coast Hotels maintain certain financial ratios with
respect to leverage and fixed charge coverage. Coast Hotels is 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 September 30, 2003, Coast Hotels was in
compliance with all covenants and required ratios.

Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations              (continued)


Capital Expenditures


In
January 2001, Coast Hotels commenced an expansion of The Orleans. The expansion project
included a special-events arena, a 586-room hotel tower, a 2,600-car parking garage, six
additional movie theaters, two restaurants, an Irish pub and approximately 40,000 square
feet of new gaming area and public space. The expansion project was completed in the third
quarter of 2003 for a total cost of $165.8 million. In the fourth quarter of 2000, Coast
Hotels commenced an expansion and remodel of the Gold Coast. The project included a new,
expanded buffet restaurant, a sports bar, an Asian-themed restaurant, an Italian
restaurant, 10,000 square feet of additional meeting space, an additional approximately
20,000 square feet of slot and table games area, a new bingo room, an expanded
porte-cochere and a parking garage. The expansion and remodel project was completed in the
second quarter of 2003 at a total cost of $72.9 million.


In
the fourth quarter of 2001 and the first quarter of 2002, Coast Hotels purchased land
totaling approximately 60 acres for possible future development. The land is located in a
gaming enterprise district on Las Vegas Boulevard South, adjacent to Interstate 15 and
approximately six miles south of Tropicana Avenue. Subject to market conditions,
availability of financing and receipt of required governmental approvals, Coast Hotels
intends to develop a hotel-casino, the South Coast, on the site. Coast Hotels
is currently developing plans for the project and anticipates beginning construction of
the hotel-casino in the first half of 2004 and opening in the second half of 2005. There
are no assurances that the project will actually be developed in the anticipated time
frame or at all.


In
July 2003, the Board of Directors approved the development and construction of additional
hotel rooms at The Orleans. Preliminary plans are for 461 rooms with an estimated project
cost of $36.0 million. Subject to the completion of plans and obtaining necessary permits,
Coast Hotels anticipates starting construction of the hotel tower in the first quarter of
2004. There are no assurances that the project will actually be developed in the
anticipated time frame or at all.


In
the ordinary course of operating its hotel-casinos, it is necessary for Coast Hotels to
upgrade or replace fixtures and equipment and to make improvements that will extend the
life of its physical plants. Coast Hotels anticipates that these maintenance capital
expenditures will total approximately $25.0 million in 2003.

Other Matters


In
November 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued FASB Interpretation No. 45
(FIN 45), Guarantors Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for
Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others. This
interpretation elaborates on the disclosures to be made by a guarantor in its interim and
annual financial statements about its obligations under certain guarantees that it has
issued. It also clarifies (for guarantees issued after January 1, 2003) that a guarantor
is required to recognize, at the inception of a guarantee, a liability for the fair value
of the obligations undertaken in issuing the guarantee. At September 30, 2003, we do not
have any outstanding guarantees and accordingly the adoption of FIN 45 did not have a
material impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.


In
January 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued FASB Interpretation No. 46
(FIN 46), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities. This
interpretation addresses the requirements for business enterprises to consolidate related
entities in which they are determined to be the primary economic beneficiary as a result
of their variable economic interests. The interpretation is intended to provide guidance
in judging multiple economic interests in an entity and in determining the primary
beneficiary. The interpretation outlines disclosure requirements for VIEs. We have reviewed our major relationships and our overall economic
interests with other companies consisting of related parties and other suppliers to
determine the extent of our variable economic interest in these parties. The adoption of
FIN 46 did not have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or
cash flows.


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 will be effective at the beginning of the first interim period
beginning after December 15, 2003. The adoption of SFAS 150 will not have a material
impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows as the Company currently does
not have any such financial instruments.

Item 3. Quantitative and
Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk


Market Risk


Market
risk is the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices, such as
interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and commodity prices. Our primary exposure
to market risk is interest rate risk associated with our long-term debt. We attempt to
limit our exposure to interest rate risk by managing the mix of our long-term fixed-rate
borrowings and short-term borrowings under our revolving bank credit facility. Assuming
that the amount of our variable rate debt remained constant at $154.0 million during the
next twelve months, a hypothetical 1% increase in our variable interest rate would
increase our annual interest expense by $1.5 million. As of September 30, 2003, we did not
have any investments in derivative- or foreign currency-based financial instruments.


The
table below provides information about our financial instruments that are sensitive to
changes in interest rates. For debt obligations, the table presents notional amounts and
weighted average interest rates by contractual maturity dates for the twelve-month period
ended September 30,:

Item 4. Controls and
Procedures


We
maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information
required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports 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 management, including our Chief
Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions
regarding required disclosure. Management necessarily applied its judgment in assessing
the costs and benefits of such controls and procedures that, by their nature, can provide
only reasonable assurance regarding managements control objectives.


As
of September 30, 2003, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the
participation of management, including our Chief Executive Officer along with our Chief
Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure
controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e). Based upon
the foregoing, our Chief Executive Officer along with our Chief Financial Officer
concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective within the reasonable
assurance threshold described above. There have been no significant changes in our
internal controls (including our internal controls over financial reporting) or in other
factors, which could significantly affect internal controls subsequent to the date we
carried out our evaluation, and no significant deficiencies or material weaknesses in such
internal controls requiring corrective actions were identified.
