April [•], 2026

Dear Fellow Shareholders:

This past year had several successes and some challenges.

Our highest-earning property, American Place in Waukegan, Illinois, had another great year. Revenues rose 13% and it was selected again by the *Chicago Tribune* as one of the best employers in all of Chicagoland.

The performance is particularly remarkable as it is in a temporary structure, competing with larger, well-established casinos. Under Illinois law, we are allowed to operate in the temporary structure until August 2027. We then plan to migrate into an adjacent, much larger, and more impressive permanent facility.

Approximately a year ago, an impeding lawsuit from a competitor was resolved and we were preparing to arrange the approximately $300 million required for construction of the permanent facility. Our primary existing debt is comprised of senior secured notes maturing in February 2028. Because of the nearing maturity and the covenants in such notes, we intended to simultaneously refinance this debt as part of a new capital structure. However, an abrupt announcement in April 2025 of new, historically-high tariffs caused volatility in the financial markets, particularly the high-yield bond market. The volatility essentially closed that window, and it took several months for those capital markets to recover. Meanwhile, our Colorado property, which opened in stages during 2024, had a disappointing winter and spring, affecting our leverage ratios and our cost and ability to raise capital.

We reacted quickly. Our basic thesis on the Colorado market is sound; it is an underserved market with significant barriers to entry and more than five million people living in the Colorado Front Range. We built a wonderful property, which we believe is the clear quality leader in the market. Over the past year, we strengthened the property with an entirely new management team largely hired from outside the company, all of whom have experience with casinos and hotels of this quality and size. Normally, we would prefer to promote from within, but in this case, we didn't have a deep bench with experience opening and operating higher-end properties. While "rebooting" a major property does not happen overnight, we are already seeing significant improvement over the prior-year results.

We have now returned our attention to funding and building the permanent Illinois facility, which, based on square footage, will be approximately twice as large as the temporary casino.

Despite a tumultuous world, the capital markets of late have proven resilient. We believe we have found a path to funding the permanent casino and refinancing our primary debt. It requires a significant amount of legal work and regulatory approvals, but we have started that process and hope to have it completed within a few months. Meanwhile, we plan to start construction on the foundations of the new project, funding it through internal sources and cash flows. The initial stages of construction take time, but not large amounts of capital.

By beginning construction now, we intend to accelerate the opening date of the permanent casino. It isn't a complicated building, as its first phase has no high-rise or basement. Nevertheless, a project of this size will require approximately 18 months to two years to build. As a result, it is unlikely to be completed by the outside date that we are currently allowed to operate within the temporary facility. We have therefore asked the Illinois legislature and gaming board to consider extending the period during which we can operate the temporary casino, so that we can have a smooth transition of the operations into the new building.

Our legacy properties are also very important.

The Silver Slipper had a flattish year, with revenues down 4%. Key members of the longtime management team retired during the year and have been replaced with both internal promotions and newly-recruited team members.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

Our property in Rising Sun, Indiana, continued to be a profit contributor. This casino opened in 1996 and has contended with new competitors in every direction, many of which are significantly closer to the region's population centers. We sought to relocate the operations to a more favorable location, strengthening the business for both us and the state, but were unsuccessful in obtaining the legislative approval to do so. Hence, we continue to operate where we are.

Our Grand Lodge Casino is located within the Hyatt Lake Tahoe on the North Shore of Lake Tahoe. The property's owner began a large refurbishment of the property, demolishing its highest-end suites, a large restaurant, much of its meeting room space and closing its lakefront beach. The refurbishments are expected to include newer, nicer accommodations, complementing the high-rise building across the street that houses our casino. That disruption affected our results in 2025 and will probably continue to do so in 2026. However, we look forward to the years beyond, when this leading resort hotel will become one of the finest casino hotels anywhere.

Our stock did not perform well during the year, despite the excellent results at the temporary casino, largely reflecting the poor results in Colorado and the uncertainties of funding construction in Illinois. Your management team is heavily invested in our company and is very focused on resolving these issues. We intend to make both the Company and the stock into major long-term successes.

I would like to thank our shareholders, lenders, team members, communities, and customers for their support. We resolve to do better in the years ahead.

**________________________________________**

**ABOUT THE MEETING**

**________________________________________**

**How will the annual meeting be conducted and who can attend the annual meeting?**

This year's annual meeting will be held in person only. It will be held at American Place Casino, located at 4011 Fountain Square Place, Waukegan, Illinois 60085.

All stockholders as of the record date, or their duly appointed proxies, may attend the annual meeting. To attend the annual meeting in person, please note that if you are the beneficial owner of shares held in street name, you will need to bring a copy of a brokerage statement reflecting your stock ownership as of the record date. You will also need a photo ID to gain admission.

**What is the purpose of the annual meeting?**

At the annual meeting, stockholders will act upon the matters outlined in the accompanying notice of meeting, including:

● the election of seven directors;

● the approval of the amendment and restatement of our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, to include certain provisions relating to director qualifications and disqualification;

● the ratification of the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for 2026; and

● an advisory vote to approve the compensation of our named executive officers.

The stockholders will also transact any other business that properly comes before the meeting.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

**Who is entitled to vote?**

Only stockholders of record at the close of business on the record date, March 18, 2026, are entitled to receive notice of the annual meeting and to vote the shares of our common stock that they held on that date at the meeting, or any postponement or adjournment of the meeting. Each outstanding share of common stock entitles its holder to cast one vote on each matter to be voted upon.

**What is the difference between a stockholder of record and a beneficial owner?**

If your shares are registered directly in your name with our transfer agent, Equiniti Trust Company, LLC, you are considered the "stockholder of record" with respect to those shares. If your shares are held by a brokerage firm, bank, trustee or other agent ("nominee"), you are considered the "beneficial owner" of shares held in "street name". As the beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your nominee on how to vote your shares by following their instructions for voting included in the enclosed proxy materials.

**What constitutes a quorum?**

The presence at the annual meeting, in person or by proxy, of the holders of 40% of the total number of shares of our common stock and preferred stock outstanding on the record date will constitute a quorum, permitting the meeting to conduct its business. As of the record date, 36,192,328 shares of our common stock were outstanding and held by approximately 56 stockholders of record. As of the record date, no shares of our preferred stock were outstanding. Proxies received but marked as abstentions and broker non-votes will be included in the calculation of the number of shares considered to be present at the meeting for purposes of determining a quorum.

If less than 40% of outstanding shares entitled to vote are represented at the annual meeting, a majority of the shares present at the meeting may adjourn the meeting to another date, time or place, and notice need not be given of the new date, time or place if the new date, time or place is announced at the annual meeting before an adjournment is taken.

**How do I vote?**

If you are a stockholder of record, you may vote:

● via Internet;

● by telephone;

● by mail; or

● by attending the annual meeting.

If you are a beneficial owner of shares held in street name, you must follow the voting procedures of your nominee included in your proxy materials. Beneficial owners who wish to vote in person at the annual meeting must first request and obtain a legal proxy from their nominee.

**If I plan to attend the annual meeting, should I still vote by proxy?**

Yes. Casting your vote in advance does not affect your right to attend the annual meeting.

If you vote in advance and also attend the annual meeting, you do not need to vote again at the meeting unless you want to change your vote. Written ballots will be available at the meeting for stockholders of record that attend in person.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

**May I change my vote after I return my proxy card?**

Yes. Even after you have submitted your proxy, you may change your vote at any time before the proxy is exercised by filing with our Secretary either a notice of revocation or a duly executed proxy bearing a later date. The powers of the proxy holders will be suspended if you attend the annual meeting and so request, although attendance at the annual meeting will not by itself revoke a previously granted proxy. If your shares are held in street name, you must contact your broker or nominee to change your vote or obtain a proxy to vote your shares if you wish to cast your vote in person at the meeting.

**What are the Board's recommendations?**

The enclosed proxy is solicited on behalf of our board of directors (the "Board"). Unless you give other instructions on your proxy card, the persons named as proxy holders on the proxy card will vote in accordance with the recommendations of our Board. The recommendation of our Board for each item in this proxy statement is set forth below:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| **Proposal** | **Proposal** | **Board Recommendation** |
| 1. | Election of seven members to our board of directors to serve until our next annual meeting of stockholders or until their successors are duly elected and qualified. | **FOR each director nominee** |
| 2. | Approval of the amendment and restatement of our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, to include certain provisions relating to director qualifications and disqualification. | **FOR** |
| 3. | Ratification of the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for 2026. | **FOR** |
| 4. | Approval, on an advisory basis, of the compensation of our named executive officers. | **FOR** |

---

**What happens if additional matters are presented at the annual meeting?**

Our Board does not know of any other matters that may be brought before the meeting nor does it foresee or have reason to believe that the proxy holders will have to vote for substitute or alternate board nominees. In the event that any other matter should properly come before the meeting or any nominee is not available for election, the proxy holders will vote as recommended by our Board, or if no recommendation is given, in accordance with their best judgment.

**What vote is required to approve each item?**

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **Proposal** | **Proposal** | **Votes Required for Approval** | **Abstentions** |
| 1. | Election of directors | Majority of votes cast | No impact |
| 2. | Approval of the amendment and restatement of our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, to include certain provisions relating to director qualifications and disqualification | Majority of the outstanding<br>shares entitled to vote | Against |
| 3. | Ratification of Ernst & Young LLP as our auditors | Majority of votes cast | No impact |
| 4. | Advisory vote to approve compensation of named executive officers | Majority of votes cast | No impact |

---

For any other item that may properly come before the meeting, the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast at the annual meeting, whether in person or by proxy, will be required for approval, unless otherwise required by law.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

**How are abstentions treated?**

With respect to Proposal 2, abstentions will be treated as votes against that proposal and therefore will be counted as "no" votes in the final tally. With respect to Proposals 1, 3, and 4, abstentions will not be counted as votes cast in the final tally and will have no effect on the outcome of those proposals. In all cases, abstentions will be counted for purposes of determining whether a quorum is present, as stated above.

**What are "broker non-votes" and how are they treated?**

If your shares are held by a broker on your behalf (that is, in "street name"), and you do not instruct the broker as to how to vote these shares on Proposals 1, 2, or 4, the broker may not exercise discretion to vote for or against Proposals 1, 2 or 4. This would be a "broker non-vote." With respect to Proposal 2, broker non-votes will be treated as votes against that proposal and therefore will be counted as "no" votes in the final tally. With respect to Proposals 1 and 4, broker non-votes will not be counted as votes cast in the final tally and will have no effect on the outcome of those proposals. With respect to Proposal 3, the broker may exercise its discretion to vote for or against that proposal in the absence of your instruction. Please instruct your bank or broker so your vote can be counted.

**What is the effect of the advisory vote on Proposal 4?**

Proposal 4 ("Say on Pay") is an advisory vote. This means that while we ask stockholders to approve a resolution regarding this proposal, this is not an action that requires stockholder approval. If a majority of votes are cast "FOR" the Say on Pay proposal, we will consider the proposal to be approved. Although the advisory vote on this proposal is non-binding, our Board and its compensation committee will review the result of the vote and take it into account in making a determination concerning executive compensation.

**Do I have dissenter's or appraisal rights?**

You have no dissenter's or appraisal rights in connection with any of the proposals described herein.

**Where can I find voting results of the annual meeting?**

We will announce the results for the proposals voted upon at the annual meeting and publish final detailed voting results in a Form 8-K filed within four business days after the annual meeting.

**Who should I call with other questions?**

If you have additional questions about this proxy statement or the meeting or would like additional copies of this proxy statement or our 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K, please contact: Full House Resorts, Inc., 1980 Festival Plaza Drive, Suite 680, Las Vegas, Nevada 89135, Telephone: (702) 221-7800.

**CORPORATE RESPONSIBILITY**

**________________________________________**

As a longtime owner and operator of regional gaming and hotel facilities, we have sought to operate by the highest standards. Our management team has prioritized strong regulatory compliance, financial discipline and oversight. We have worked to contribute to each of our communities across the country, act as good neighbors, and support our employees and their families.

Naturally, the world continues to evolve. Today investors, regulators, public officials and consumers expect companies in all industries to engage more directly in critical environmental, social and governance ("ESG") issues.

For our small but fast-growing company, this transition aligns with our established values and our strategy of thoughtful, profitable expansion. For example, we are proud to report:

● Three members of our Board of Directors are female or ethnically diverse;

● Our Board of Directors includes one LGBT+ director;

● 67% of our corporate executives and staff are female or ethnically diverse;

● Of our 1,817 full- and part-time property employees as of March 1, 2026, 69% are female or ethnically diverse;

● Our American Place was named a 2025 Top Workplace by *USA Today*;

● American Place was also recognized on the *Chicago Tribune* 's Top Workplaces 2025 list; and

● All employees, including managers, are scheduled to receive yearly training for equal-opportunity and nondiscriminatory employment practices, as well as anti-harassment training.

As we grow, we plan to expand our focus on ESG issues through more structured initiatives, such as:

● Conserving energy, water, and other natural resources, as well as focusing on waste reduction, renewable energy, and composting/recycling programs;

● Expanding our focus on employee diversity, equity and inclusion;

● Working to increase diversity among our management, employees, vendors and partners;

● Promoting diversity among contractors for supplies, services and construction; and

● Encouraging the use of sustainable and ethically sourced goods and services.

Our latest projects reflect this approach. While building our temporary American Place facility, for example, we emphasized the use of minority-owned businesses as subcontractors, as well as firms owned by women, U.S. military veterans, and people with a disability. Similarly, we have set goals to utilize at least 25% of such businesses for the construction of our permanent American Place facility.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

Some items of note regarding American Place and Chamonix include:

● Construction of the temporary American Place facility was led by a joint venture that included one of the largest Black-owned companies in the country and one of the largest minority-owned business in Chicago;

● American Place includes a large electric vehicle charging station, which we believe is one of the largest in the Chicagoland area and the state of Illinois;

● The temporary American Place facility is rated to be more energy efficient than most typical commercial office buildings, despite our structure being temporary in nature;

● Chamonix was designed to blend with Cripple Creek's existing architectural style, in part to help preserve the city's unique history, architecture, and charm; and

● We use wall-mounted soap and shampoo dispensers throughout Chamonix's hotel, which should allow us to eliminate the use of approximately 300,000 tiny plastic bottles every year.

At our properties, our employees regularly serve as community donors and volunteers, working both in-house and through local nonprofits and charitable organizations. In addition to each property's annual monetary contributions to nonprofits, regional initiatives include:

● Donating thousands of coats to support local veterans organizations;

● Donating holiday meals to those in need;

● Holding food drives for regional food pantries, schools and churches;

● Donating water, food and other essential items to hurricane-stricken communities;

● Funding local scholarship and internship programs;

● Teaming up with local partners to benefit Toys for Tots, the Boys and Girls Club, Northern Nevada Children's Cancer Foundation, Habitat for Humanity, the Salvation Army, local firefighters, 4-H, and other organizations;

● Participating in community beach and river cleanups; and

● Supporting the Two-Mile-High Club in Cripple Creek, which cares for feral donkeys descended from the historic mining town's original drove.

In addition, our team members across the country volunteer for a broad range of programs and organizations. Our employees serve on the boards of several local entities that support regional development; the casino/resort industry; tourism; youth sports; responsible gaming; animal welfare; and other causes.

Our management team will work to keep our employees, regulators, investors and communities informed of new ESG developments and policies. Given the size of our company and our available resources, some of these initiatives may take longer than others to develop over time. As always, we will work to meet or exceed regulatory and statutory requirements in a timely, transparent manner.

**PROPOSAL ONE:**

**ELECTION OF DIRECTORS**

**________________________________________**

Our Second Amended and Restated Bylaws (the "Bylaws") provide that the number of directors constituting our Board shall be fixed from time to time by our Board. Our Board currently consists of seven directors. The seven nominees to be voted on by stockholders at this meeting are Carl G. Braunlich, Lewis A. Fanger, Eric J. Green, Lynn M. Handler, Daniel R. Lee, Kathleen M. Marshall and Michael P. Shaunnessy. Directors are elected by a majority of the votes cast, assuming a quorum is present. The term of office of each director ends at the next annual meeting of stockholders or when his or her successor is elected and qualified.

All nominees have consented to be named and have indicated their intent to serve if elected. We have no reason to believe that any of these nominees are unavailable for election. However, if any of the nominees become unavailable for any reason, the persons named as proxies may vote for the election of such person or persons for such office as our Board may recommend in the place of such nominee or nominees. It is intended that proxies, unless marked to the contrary, will be voted in favor of the election of each of the nominees.

**Director Nominees**

We believe that each nominee possesses the experience, skills and qualities to fully perform his or her duties as a director and to contribute to our success. In addition, each nominee is being nominated because they each possess high standards of personal integrity, are accomplished in their field, have an understanding of the interests and issues that are important to our stockholders and are able to dedicate sufficient time to fulfilling their obligations as a director.

Each nominee's biography containing information regarding the individual's service as a director, business experience, director positions held currently or within the last five years and other pertinent information about the particular experience, qualifications, attributes and skills that led our Board to conclude that such person should serve as a director appears on the following pages.

| **A VOTE "FOR" EACH OF THE NOMINEES.** |

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

**________________________________________**

**CORPORATE GOVERNANCE**

**________________________________________**

**Board Leadership Structure**

Our Board has not adopted a formal policy regarding the need to separate or combine the offices of Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer. Instead, our Board remains free to make this determination from time to time in a manner that seems most appropriate for us. We currently have separate persons serving as the Chief Executive Officer and as Chairman of the Board, in recognition of the differences between the two roles. Our Chairman is responsible for setting the agenda for each of the meetings of our Board and the annual meetings of stockholders, and our Chief Executive Officer is responsible for our strategic direction and the general management of its business, financial affairs and day-to-day operations. We believe this structure promotes active participation of the independent directors and strengthens the role of our Board in fulfilling both its oversight responsibility and fiduciary duties to our stockholders, while recognizing our day-to-day management direction by the Chief Executive Officer. Accordingly, we believe this structure has been the best governance model for us and our stockholders to date.

Dr. Braunlich, an independent director, currently serves as our Chairman of the Board. All of our Board committees are compromised only of independent directors except for our compliance committee, which includes Mr. Lee, our Chief Executive Officer. Each committee is chaired by an independent director. Our Board leadership structure is commonly utilized by other public companies in the United States of comparable size and scope. We believe that an independent Chairman and only independent directors serving on our Board committees (other than the compliance committee) provide an effective and balanced leadership structure. With experienced and participating independent directors, we believe we have the proper leadership structure.

**Independence of Directors**

Under the corporate governance standards of the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC ("Nasdaq"), at least a majority of our Board and all of the members of our audit committee, compensation committee, and the nominating and corporate governance committee must meet the test of independence as defined by the listing requirements of Nasdaq. Our Board, in the exercise of its reasonable business judgment, has determined that Dr. Braunlich, Mr. Green, Ms. Handler, Ms. Marshall and Mr. Shaunnessy (constituting 71% of our current board) qualify as independent directors, pursuant to Nasdaq and rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). In making the determination of independence, our Board undertook a review of director independence, which includes a review of each director's responses to questionnaires asking about any relationships with us. This review is designed to identify and evaluate any transactions or relationships between a director or any member of his or her immediate family and us, or members of our management or other members of our Board, and all relevant facts and circumstances regarding any such transactions or relationships. In addition, our Board considered the recommendations of our nominating and corporate governance committee, which also considered whether such directors would be deemed to be "independent".

**Board Retirement Policy**

The Board has adopted a Board retirement policy. Under such policy, a director is generally required to retire at the first annual meeting following his or her 75th birthday.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

**Meetings**

During 2025, our Board held five meetings. Each of our directors attended at least 75% of the aggregate of (i) the total number of meetings of the Board that were held during the period in which he or she was a director and (ii) the total number of meetings of all committees on which he or she served that were held during the period in which he or she was a director. We have no specific requirements regarding attendance at the annual meeting of stockholders by our directors. Nevertheless, in 2025, all of our directors at such time attended the annual meeting.

**Board Committees**

Our Board has four standing committees: the audit committee, the compensation committee, the compliance committee, and the nominating and corporate governance committee, each of which operates under a written charter adopted by our Board. A current copy of each of the audit committee, compensation committee, compliance committee, and nominating and corporate governance committee charters is available through the "Investors ⸺ Governance Documents" link on our website, www.fullhouseresorts.com. The following table illustrates the current membership of each of our Board's committees:

**Audit Committee**

The audit committee is currently comprised of three members: Mr. Shaunnessy, Ms. Marshall and Dr. Braunlich. Mr. Shaunnessy serves as chair of the audit committee. Our Board has determined that Ms. Marshall and Mr. Shaunnessy are audit committee financial experts as defined by the rules and regulations of the SEC. Our Board, in its reasonable judgment, has determined that each member of the audit committee is independent, as defined under the applicable Nasdaq listing standards, and meets the enhanced independence standards for audit committee members required by the SEC. The audit committee held six meetings in 2025.

Among its responsibilities, the audit committee:

● selects, retains, compensates, oversees and terminates, if necessary, our independent auditors;

● approves all audit engagement fees and terms and pre-approves all audit and permitted non-audit and tax services that may be provided by our independent auditors;

● at least annually, evaluates the qualifications, performance and independence of our independent auditors;

● reviews and discusses with the independent auditors, among other matters, the overall audit strategy and the scope, timing and results of the annual audit, and critical accounting policies and practices to be used in the audit;

● reviews with management and the independent auditors the adequacy and effectiveness of our financial reporting processes, internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures;

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

● reviews and discusses with the independent auditors and management our annual and quarterly financial statements and the disclosure under "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" to be included in our annual reports on Form 10-K and our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q;

● reviews, discusses with the independent auditors, and approves the functions of our internal audit department;

● establishes and oversees procedures for the receipt, retention and treatment of complaints received by us regarding accounting, internal accounting controls or auditing matters and the confidential, anonymous submission by our employees of concerns regarding questionable accounting or auditing matters;

● reviews and discusses with management and the internal audit department the risks faced by us and the policies, guidelines and process by which management assesses and manages such risks, including our major financial and data risk exposures;

● reviews, with the General Counsel and outside legal counsel, legal and regulatory matters that could have a significant impact on our financial statements; and

● reviews, approves and oversees related party transactions.

Please refer to the audit committee report, which is set forth below, for a further description of our audit committee's responsibilities and its recommendations with respect to our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025.

**Compensation Committee**

The compensation committee is currently comprised of three members, Mr. Green, Dr. Braunlich, and Mr. Shaunnessy. Mr. Green serves as chair of the compensation committee. Our Board, in its reasonable judgment, has determined that each member of the compensation committee is independent as defined under the applicable Nasdaq listing standards, Rule 16b-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). The compensation committee held three meetings in 2025. The compensation committee is generally responsible for reviewing and making recommendations to our Board regarding all forms of compensation to be provided to our executive officers, directors and, where appropriate, employees.

Among its responsibilities, the compensation committee:

● reviews and determines the corporate goals and objectives of our chief executive officer, or CEO, and all other executive officers and such other employees as the compensation committee may determine from time to time;

● at least annually, evaluates the performance of the CEO and all other executive officers and such other employees as the compensation committee may determine from time to time;

● reviews and approves the compensation of the CEO;

● reviews and approves, or recommends for Board approval where appropriate, the compensation of all other executive officers, and such other employees as the compensation committee may determine from time to time;

● reviews and approves, or recommends for Board approval, individual performance objectives and general compensation goals and guidelines for executive officers and such other employees as the compensation committee may determine from time to time, and the criteria by which bonuses to such executive officers and other employees are determined;

● reviews and approves, or recommends for Board approval, the compensation policy for executive officers and directors, and such other employees as the compensation committee may determine from time to time;

● reviews and annually evaluates our incentive compensation plans and acts as administrator for all of our incentive plans; and

● develops and recommends for Board approval the executive officer succession plan, reviews such succession plan periodically, develops and evaluates potential candidates for executive officer positions and recommends to the Board any changes to and candidates for succession under the succession plan.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

Management provides recommendations to the compensation committee on the amount and type of executive compensation (other than that of the recommending executive), as well as individual performance objectives for bonuses and incentive compensation, and the compensation committee reviews and considers these recommendations. In formulating its recommendations to the Board, the compensation committee additionally considers our performance as a whole. The compensation committee determines the achievement of the individual performance objectives, which are based on specific goals consistent with the annual business plan, and recommends individual bonus and incentive compensation amounts to the Board. The compensation committee may delegate its authority to subcommittees or the chair of the committee when it deems appropriate and in our best interest.

The compensation committee reviews a number of factors when evaluating compensation of executives, including any potential base salary increases. Such factors include, but are not limited to, a periodic review of our peer group within the gaming industry for equivalent positions of companies of similar size and status, external market conditions, and individual factors. Such individual factors include the executive's experience, tenure, education, job performance, contributions to our operational and financial results, complexity of the executive's responsibilities and any unique skills or qualities the executive possesses.

In 2025, the compensation committee utilized AETHOS Consulting Group ("AETHOS") to provide compensation-related recommendations for our executives, as well as to consider any updates to our peer group. The full peer group was used to analyze compensation practices, while a subset of 13 companies – selected based on annual revenues in 2024 and market capitalization – was used to compare our actual compensation to the market. The full peer group consisted of: Accel Entertainment, Bally's, Canterbury Park Holding, Century Casinos, Denny's, El Pollo Loco Holdings, Golden Entertainment, Inspired Entertainment, Lindblad Expeditions, Marcus, Monarch Casino and Resort, Noodles & Company, Playa Hotels & Resorts, Portillo's, Potbelly, Red Robin Gourmet Burgers, Red Rock Resorts, and Rush Street Interactive. The smaller subset excluded Accel Entertainment, Bally's, Playa Hotels & Resorts, Red Rock Resorts, and Rush Street Interactive.

***Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation***

During the last fiscal year, Mr. Green, Dr. Braunlich, and Mr. Shaunnessy served on the compensation committee. None of the members of the compensation committee were at any time during 2025 an officer or employee of our Company, or was formerly an officer of our Company, except for Mr. Shaunnessy, who served as our Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer from 1998 to 2004. No interlocking relationship existed at any time during 2025 between our Board or our compensation committee and the board of directors or compensation committee of any other company. There were no transactions in 2025 between us and any directors who served as compensation committee members for any part of 2025 that would require disclosure by us under SEC rules requiring disclosure of certain relationships and related party transactions.

***Compliance Committee***

The compliance committee is currently comprised of four members: Ms. Handler, Dr. Braunlich, Mr. Lee, and Ms. Marshall. Ms. Marshall currently serves as chair of the compliance committee. The compliance committee's functions include reviewing and making recommendations to the Board regarding compliance with gaming laws and regulations. The compliance committee held five meetings in 2025.

The compliance committee meets quarterly to review the items determined by the Illinois, Colorado, Nevada, Indiana and Mississippi gaming control boards to be of sufficient material interest to warrant review by a committee of the Board, as reported by our Compliance Officer and General Counsel.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

***Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee***

The nominating and corporate governance committee is currently comprised of three members, Ms. Handler, Dr. Braunlich, and Mr. Green. Ms. Handler serves as chair of the nominating and corporate governance committee. The nominating and corporate governance committee held two meetings in 2025.

The nominating and corporate governance committee is generally responsible for assisting our Board with respect to nominating new directors.

Among its responsibilities, the nominating and corporate governance committee:

● determines, and periodically reviews, specific, minimum qualifications and characteristics that must be met by a nominee for a position on the Board or on a Board committee;

● determines, and periodically reviews, (i) whether there are any specific qualities or skills that are necessary for one or more directors to possess, (ii) the overall diversity of the Board, and (iii) any other areas that may be expected to contribute to an effective Board;

● identifies, evaluates, proposes, approves and recommends for Board approval nominees for election or appointment to the Board, including nominees for director to be submitted to a stockholder vote at the annual meeting of stockholders;

● evaluates, proposes, and approves any nominations of director candidates validly made by stockholders in accordance with policies and procedures adopted by the Board and applicable laws, rules, and regulations;

● identifies, evaluates, proposes, and approves candidates to fill Board and committee vacancies and review the Board's committee structure and composition;

● develops, and recommends to the Board for approval, standards for determining when a director has a relationship with us that would impair his or her independence;

● develops and recommends to the Board, and reviews at least annually, a set of corporate governance guidelines applicable to us, and recommends changes to the Board as appropriate;

● develops, recommends to the Board for approval, and periodically reviews, the Code of Business Ethics and Conduct, investigates any alleged breach or violation, and enforces the provisions of the Code of Business Ethics and Conduct;

● reviews and oversees our corporate governance practices and procedures; and

● develops, subject to Board approval, a process for periodic evaluation of the Board and other Board committees and oversees the conduct of such evaluations.

The nominating and corporate governance committee considers all qualified director candidates regardless of age, race, gender, national origin or religion. The nominating and corporate governance committee seeks to balance the existing skill sets of current Board members with the need for diversity and other appropriate skills and qualities that will complement our strategic vision. All director candidates are evaluated based on general characteristics and specific talents and skills needed to increase the Board's effectiveness, including such factors as business experience, skills and knowledge with respect to the gaming industry, finance, marketing, and financial reporting. Additionally, all candidates must possess a commitment to high ethical standards and have a demonstrated reputation for integrity. The nominating and corporate governance committee will consider stockholder recommendations for director candidates and will do so in the same manner that it considers all director candidates. Other than as provided by applicable law, there are no specific, minimum qualifications that must be met by a director nominee recommended by a stockholder except that a director must be of full age.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

Under our Bylaws, if a stockholder wishes to submit a nominee for consideration by the nominating and corporate governance committee, the stockholder must deliver or mail notice of the request to the Secretary, in writing, so that it is received not less than 90 days nor more than 120 days prior to the anniversary date of the prior year's annual meeting of stockholders. However, if the annual meeting is not within 30 days in advance of the anniversary date of the prior year's annual meeting or not within 70 days after the anniversary date of the prior year's annual meeting, such notice must be received by the Secretary no later than 10 days following the date of public disclosure of the annual meeting date. The notice must be accompanied by the information concerning the nominee and proposing stockholder described in Article I, Section 12 of our Bylaws including disclosure of: (i) the number of shares of our capital stock owned of record and beneficially by the nominee, (ii) a description of any agreement, arrangement or understanding between a proposing stockholder and any other persons acting in concert, (iii) information we deem appropriate to ascertain the nominee's suitability to serve on the Board or eligibility to serve as an independent director, and (iv) any other information concerning the nominee required to comply with the proxy rules and regulations. A nomination not made in accordance with the procedures set forth in our Bylaws is void.

Although the nominating and corporate governance committee's charter permits the committee to engage a search firm to identify director candidates, we did not pay any third parties a fee to assist in the process of identifying or evaluating director candidates in 2025.

**Board's Role in Risk Oversight**

The audit committee is responsible for reviewing and assessing our financial risks, including those that may relate to cybersecurity. The compensation committee is primarily responsible for overseeing the management of risks associated with compensation policies and practice. In addition, the compliance committee is responsible for the oversight and review of all matters of gaming regulatory importance. We believe that these committees provide us with proper risk oversight.

**Prohibition on Short Sales, Derivatives Trading and Pledging and Hedging of Company Securities**

Our insider trading policy prohibits directors, officers, employees, and our consultants and independent contractors ("Insiders") from engaging in short-term or speculative transactions involving our securities. Specifically, Insiders may not engage in any of the following activities with respect to our securities:

● trading in securities on a short-term basis, excluding transactions required to complete certain stock option exercises;

● purchases of our securities on margin or holding our securities in a margin account;

● short sales of our securities;

● buying or selling puts or calls, or other derivative securities, of our securities;

● pledging our securities as collateral for a loan; and

● hedging or monetizing transactions or similar arrangements with respect to our securities.

**Code of Conduct and Ethics**

Our Board has adopted a Code of Conduct and Ethics applicable to each of our directors, officers and employees. The full text of the Code of Conduct and Ethics is available through the "Investors ─ Governance Documents" link on our website, www.fullhouseresorts.com. We intend to provide disclosure of any amendments or waivers of our Code of Conduct and Ethics on our website within four business days following the date of the amendment or waiver.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

**Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions**

Our Code of Conduct and Ethics broadly covers related-party transactions that may involve a conflict of interest. Under our audit committee charter, all related party transactions must be approved by our audit committee. Current SEC rules define transactions with related persons to include any transaction, arrangement or relationship (i) in which the company is a participant, (ii) in which the amount involved exceeds the lesser of $120,000 or one percent of the average of a smaller reporting company's total assets at year-end for the last two completed fiscal years, and (iii) in which any executive officer, director, director nominee, beneficial owner of more than 5% of our common stock, or any immediate family member of such persons has or will have a direct or indirect material interest. All directors must recuse themselves from any discussion or decision affecting their personal, business or professional interests. We did not have any related party transactions in 2024 or 2025.

**Director Compensation**

Each non-employee director's compensation in 2025 consisted of: (1) cash compensation of $50,000, paid quarterly in arrears (pro-rated for directors that served for less than the full year), and (2) a grant of common stock in a number of shares equal to approximately $75,000 on the day of grant approval. The Chairman of the Board also receives additional annual cash compensation of $25,000, paid quarterly in arrears, and the Chair of each of the Audit Committee, Compensation Committee, Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and Compliance Committee receives additional annual cash compensation of $17,500, $12,000, $10,000 and $10,000, respectively, paid quarterly in arrears.

**EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION**

**________________________________________**

We are constantly seeking to improve our policies and practices. We regularly meet with our shareholders, seeking their input on a broad variety of topics, including executive compensation. While we did not receive any negative feedback regarding executive compensation as a result of those outreach efforts in 2025, we nonetheless continue to seek ways to improve our compensation program. Items of note include:

● Under both the 2025 Equity Incentive Plan (the "2025 Plan") and our predecessor plan, the 2015 Equity Incentive Plan (the "2015 Plan"), a double-trigger is required for early vesting of equity and related grants in connection with a change in control.

● We use a formula-based, pay-for-performance approach to management bonuses. Since 2017, our bonus criteria have focused on achievement of a variety of performance goals, including Adjusted EBITDA, discretionary free cash flow per share, growth rates in performance metrics, and individual goals.

● Maintenance of a clawback policy, which applies to both cash and stock-based awards.

● In 2021, the Board approved stock ownership guidelines for our management team and our Board.

● In 2025, we again retained an independent third party to provide recommendations regarding our executive compensation.

● The 2025 Plan and the 2015 Plan prohibit the repricing or exchange of equity-based grants without stockholder approval.

● The compensation committee is comprised entirely of independent directors.

● We prohibit the hedging of our securities by members of our Board, our officers, and other insiders.

● We prohibit the purchase of our securities on margin or the holding of our securities in a margin account.

● We prohibit the pledging of our securities as collateral for a loan.

2025 was an important milestone year for us. Some of our notable accomplishments during 2025 include:

● Total revenue increased to $302.4 million in 2025, a 3.5% increase from $292.1 million in the prior year, despite the sale of Stockman's Casino.

● American Place's revenue rose 13.1% in 2025, increasing to $124.1 million in 2025 from $109.7 million in 2024.

● Under a revamped management team, profitability from our Colorado operations meaningfully improved, particularly in the second half of 2025.

● At December 31, 2025, the 10-year shareholder return for our stock was 56.3%.

● At March 2, 2026, the 10-year shareholder return for our stock was 50.3%.

● From November 28, 2014, the date that Mr. Lee became our Chief Executive Officer, through the Record Date of March 18, 2026, our stock price has increased 100.8%.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

**Stock Ownership Guidelines**

We believe that ownership in the Company by our executive management team, including our named executive officers, is an important tool to align the interests of our management team with the long-term best interests of our stockholders. Accordingly, in March 2021, the Board approved stock ownership guidelines for our management team and our Board, as detailed in the table below:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **Title** | **Multiple of Base Salary** |
| Chief Executive Officer | 5x |
| Chief Financial Officer | 3x |
| Other Named Executive Officers | 2x |
| Independent Directors | 2x Annual Cash Retainer |

---

For purposes of determining a participant's stock ownership level, the following items are included in the calculation of beneficial ownership: shares purchased on the open market or in private transactions; shares that are derived from vested equity awards, including vested restricted stock, stock-settled restricted stock units (RSUs), and exercised stock options; vested shares held in a 401(k) plan or other similar plan; and vested, but unexercised, stock options that are "in-the-money," where the fair market value of a share of the company's stock exceeds the exercise or strike price of the option.

Upon the adoption of these new guidelines, management and directors were given a period of three years to meet their minimum stock ownership levels. Newly-appointed directors and management members will have a five-year period from their date of joining us to meet their minimum stock ownership levels. As of the record date, all of our Named Executive Officers and all directors of our Board exceeded the minimum stock ownership guidelines except for Ms. Handler, who joined our Board in May 2022 and has until May 2027 to meet the minimum stock ownership level, and Ms. Guidroz, who satisfied our guidelines until recently due to a higher base salary in her new employment agreement.

**Annual Incentive Plan**

Our compensation committee adopted the Full House Resorts, Inc. Annual Incentive Plan for Executives (the "Annual Incentive Plan"), effective as of January 1, 2017. The Annual Incentive Plan is a short-term incentive plan designed to reward our executives for achieving pre-established corporate performance goals during a given performance period. The purpose of the Annual Incentive Plan is to provide an incentive for superior performance, to motivate participating executives toward the highest levels of achievement and business results, to tie management's goals and interests with our stockholders' goals, and to enable us to attract and retain highly qualified executives. Any bonus awards under the Annual Incentive Plan are payable in cash or common stock (or any combination of cash or common stock), and any portion of such bonus award payable in the form of our common stock will be subject to the terms and conditions (including the applicable share limitations) of our 2025 Plan, or any other plan adopted by us pursuant to which shares of common stock may be granted.

Participation in the Annual Incentive Plan includes our named executive officers (our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and General Counsel), as well as any other individuals as determined by the compensation committee in its discretion.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

**Annual Incentive Awards**

For 2025, the Compensation Committee approved two performance metrics for evaluating annual incentive bonus payouts under the Annual Incentive Plan: Adjusted EBITDA and individual qualitative goals. The total annual incentive bonus payout for those two metrics could not exceed, as a percentage of base salary: 175% for Mr. Lee, 150% for Mr. Fanger, and 100% for Ms. Guidroz.

*Goal 1: Adjusted EBITDA.* The criteria for Adjusted EBITDA in 2025 were:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **Named Executive Officer** | **Threshold** | **Target** | **Maximum** |
| All NEOs | $50 Million | $65 Million | $80 Million |

---

Award payout levels, as a percentage of base salary, for meeting Adjusted EBITDA goals were:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **Named Executive Officer** | **Threshold** | **Target** | **Maximum** |
| Daniel R. Lee | 25% | 100% | 175% |
| Lewis A. Fanger | 25% | 75% | 150% |
| Elaine L. Guidroz | 25% | 75% | 100% |

---

Adjusted EBITDA in 2025 was $48.1 million. Accordingly, the Compensation Committee did not approve the payout of any bonus amounts to our named executive officers related to this metric, as Adjusted EBITDA did not exceed the threshold level for 2025.

*Goal 2: Individual Qualitative Goals.* During 2025, we made significant progress in our efforts to grow our company. These included the completion of the sale of Stockman's Casino in April 2025, continued meaningful growth at our temporary American Place facility, and improved operating results at Chamonix, particularly in the second half of 2025. In recognition of these efforts, the Compensation Committee approved maximum payout levels for this metric for Mr. Lee, Mr. Fanger, and Ms. Guidroz. Award payout levels, as a percentage of base salary, for individual qualitative goals were:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **Named Executive Officer** | **Threshold** | **Target** | **Maximum** |
| Daniel R. Lee | 10% | 40% | 40% |
| Lewis A. Fanger | 10% | 20% | 30% |
| Elaine L. Guidroz | 10% | 20% | 30% |

**Independent Compensation Study**

In 2025, AETHOS provided recommended updates to our compensation peer group. The full peer group was used to analyze compensation practices, while a subset of 13 companies – selected based on annual revenues in 2024 and market capitalization – was used to compare our actual compensation to the market. The full peer group consisted of: Accel Entertainment, Bally's, Canterbury Park Holding, Century Casinos, Denny's, El Pollo Loco Holdings, Golden Entertainment, Inspired Entertainment, Lindblad Expeditions, Marcus, Monarch Casino and Resort, Noodles & Company, Playa Hotels & Resorts, Portillo's, Potbelly, Red Robin Gourmet Burgers, Red Rock Resorts, and Rush Street Interactive. The smaller subset excluded Accel Entertainment, Bally's, Playa Hotels & Resorts, Red Rock Resorts, and Rush Street Interactive.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

**Equity Awards**

AETHOS also provided recommendations for our compensation programs to the Compensation Committee. Among those recommendations include the usage of "at-risk" compensation for our officers. Recent performance-based awards include:

● In connection with his prior employment agreement, Mr. Lee was issued 64,935 performance-based shares on January 2, 2025. Additionally, upon entering into a new employment agreement with us on June 14, 2025, he was issued an additional 16,502 performance-based shares. The performance criteria for both equity awards is based on the compounded annual growth rate of our Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow Per Share, as defined, for the three-year periods ending December 31, 2025, December 31, 2026, and December 31, 2027.

● Mr. Fanger was issued 72,377 performance-based shares on May 19, 2025. Additionally, upon entering into a new employment agreement with us on July 11, 2025, he was issued an additional 10,371 performance-based shares. The performance criteria for both equity awards are similar to those described above for Mr. Lee.

● Ms. Guidroz was issued 28,099 performance-based shares on May 19, 2025. Additionally, upon entering into a new employment agreement with us on July 11, 2025, she was issued an additional 6,222 performance-based shares. The performance criteria for both equity awards are similar to those described above for Mr. Lee.

In March 2026, the Compensation Committee determined that the performance criteria related to financial performance in 2025 were partially satisfied. Such performance measures involved multi-year growth rates for EBITDA and free cash flow per share. As a result, the performance criteria were satisfied for a total of 88,772 performance shares, including 30,040 performance shares previously awarded to Mr. Lee, 28,630 performance shares previously awarded to Mr. Fanger, and 11,481 shares previously awarded to Ms. Guidroz. Additionally, a total of 88,761 performance shares were cancelled, including 30,038 performance shares previously granted to Mr. Lee, 28,627 performance shares previously granted to Mr. Fanger, and 11,479 performance shares previously granted to Ms. Guidroz.

The Compensation Committee has historically also issued time-based restricted stock awards and stock option awards, as it believes that a significant component of the compensation paid to our executives over the long-term should be equity-based compensation. It also believes that stock price appreciation and stock ownership in us are valuable incentives to our executives. Accordingly, our executives are granted equity awards to align their interests with those of our stockholders and to encourage them to manage us in our best long-term interests. We endeavor to make annual equity awards to our management team. Recent restricted stock and stock option awards include:

● In connection with his prior employment agreement, on January 2, 2025, Mr. Lee received a non-qualified stock option to purchase 69,027 shares of common stock pursuant to the 2015 Plan at an exercise price per share of $4.62, the closing price of our stock on that day. This stock option grant will vest with respect to 1/3 of the total number of shares underlying the stock option on each anniversary of January 2, 2025. Also in connection with his prior employment agreement, on March 31, 2025, the Compensation Committee approved an option grant to Mr. Lee to purchase a total of 28,240 shares at an exercise price of $4.62 per share, above the closing price of our stock on that day. This stock option grant will vest with respect to 1/3 of the total number of shares underlying the stock option on each anniversary of March 31, 2025.

● Upon entering into a new employment agreement with us on June 14, 2025, Mr. Lee received a non-qualified stock option to purchase 24,696 shares of common stock pursuant to the 2025 Plan at an exercise price per share of $3.03, the closing price of our stock on that day. This stock option grant will vest with respect to 1/3 of the total number of shares underlying the stock option on each anniversary of June 14, 2025.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

● Mr. Fanger was issued 72,377 shares of time-based restricted stock that vest in equal annual amounts on May 19, 2026, 2027 and 2028. Additionally, upon entering into a new employment agreement with us on July 11, 2025, he was issued 10,371 shares of time-based restricted stock that vest in equal annual amounts on July 11, 2026, 2027 and 2028.

● Ms. Guidroz was issued 28,099 shares of time-based restricted stock that vest in equal annual amounts on May 19, 2026, 2027 and 2028. Additionally, upon entering into a new employment agreement with us on July 11, 2025, she was issued 6,222 shares of time-based restricted stock that vest in equal annual amounts on July 11, 2026, 2027 and 2028.

**CEO Pay Ratio Disclosure**

As required by Section 953(b) of the Dodd-Frank Act and Item 402(u) of Regulation S-K under the Exchange Act ("Regulation S-K"), we are providing the following information about the relationship of the annual total compensation of Mr. Lee, our Chief Executive Officer, and the annual total compensation of our median employee. Using the methodology described below, we determined that the total annual compensation of our median employee, excluding our Chief Executive Officer, was $34,546. The annual total compensation of our Chief Executive Officer was $1,702,637. Based upon the calculation of compensation for both our Chief Executive Officer and our median employee, the ratio of Chief Executive Officer pay to median employee pay for 2025 was 49-to-1. We believe this pay ratio is a reasonable estimate calculated in a manner consistent with Item 402(u) of Regulation S-K.

To identify the annual total compensation of our median employee, we took the following steps:

● We identified our median employee using payroll compensation consistent with what is reported on each employee's W-2, Box 1 as of December 31 2025 for all individuals, excluding our Chief Executive Officer, who were employed by us on such date. There were 1,796 total employees in such group, excluding our Chief Executive Officer. Total annual compensation was calculated using all pay periods between January 1, 2025 and December 31, 2025.

● We did not make any assumptions or estimates with respect to total annual compensation.

● In accordance with the requirements of Item 402(c)(2)(x) of Regulation S-K, we then calculated the total annual compensation for the median employee for 2025. We compared such amount to the annual total compensation of our Chief Executive Officer for 2025, as set forth in the "Total" column of the Summary Compensation Table included in this proxy statement.

Because the SEC rules for identifying the median of the annual total compensation of a company's employees and calculating the pay ratio based on that employee's annual total compensation allow companies to adopt a variety of methodologies, to apply certain exclusions, and to make reasonable estimates and assumptions that reflect their employee populations and compensation practices, the pay ratio reported by other companies may not be comparable to our pay ratio, as other companies may have employees in other countries, have different employee populations and compensation practices, and may utilize different methodologies, exclusions, estimates and assumptions in calculating their pay ratios.

**Information Presented in the Pay versus Performance Table**

We seek to align executive interests with all stakeholders by setting performance measures that provide a clear path to achieving long-term value. Because the Company generally places emphasis on long-term performance, compensation actually paid as disclosed in the table above may not specifically align with achievement of performance measures for a particular year.

**Compensation Actually Paid and Cumulative Total Shareholder Return ("TSR")**

As described in "Executive Compensation ─ Annual Incentive Awards," equity awards comprise approximately 41% of our CEO's compensation awarded during the fiscal year. These awards consist of performance-based restricted shares and time-based options, which do not vest during the year awarded. The following graph demonstrates the relationship between compensation actually paid and cumulative TSR considering the Company's emphasis on long-term equity awards.

![Graphic](fll-20260514xpre14a007.jpg)

**Compensation Actually Paid and Net Income (Loss)**

The following table demonstrates the relationship between compensation actually paid and net income (loss), which is not a performance metric used in our overall compensation program. Net income (loss) is, however, related to Adjusted EBITDA, which is included in our compensation program.

![Graphic](fll-20260514xpre14a008.jpg)

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

**Insider Trading Policy and Procedures**

We have adopted insider trading policies and procedures that govern the purchase, sale and disposition of our securities by directors, officers and employees. These policies and procedures are reasonably designed to promote compliance with insider trading laws, rules and regulations, including those promulgated by the SEC and Nasdaq. Our insider trading policy was filed as an exhibit to our 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

**Option Grant Practices and Use of Material Nonpublic Information**

We do not have a formal written policy in place with regard to the timing of stock option awards or other similar awards in relation to material nonpublic information. Mr. Lee's and Mr. Fanger's employment agreements require their annual equity awards under the agreements to be granted within thirty days after the conclusion of our annual meeting of stockholders. For other individuals that receive equity awards, the compensation committee typically grants such awards in connection with our annual meeting of stockholders. On limited occasions, we may grant equity awards outside of our annual grant period for new hires, promotions or other purposes.

While we do not grant stock options in anticipation of, or immediately following, the release of material nonpublic information about us, Item 402(x) of Regulation S-K requires companies to disclose certain information in the event stock options were granted within the four-business-day period before or the one-business-day period after the filing of any Form 10-K, 10-Q, or 8-K containing material nonpublic information. We granted stock options to Mr. Lee on June 14, 2025 in connection with the execution of his new employment agreement dated June 14, 2025. This grant occurred two business days before our Current Report on Form 8-K reporting the new employment agreement with Mr. Lee. Information for the grant is provided below pursuant to Item 402(x)(2) of Regulation S-K:

**PROPOSAL TWO:**

**APPROVAL of our Amended and Restated**

**Certificate of Incorporation**

**________________________________________**

**Overview**

The Board has adopted a resolution to amend and restate, and recommends that the stockholders approve the amendment and restatement of, our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended (the "Existing Charter"), to include certain provisions relating to director qualifications and disqualification (as amended and restated, the "Amended and Restated Charter").

The following summary of the amendments to our Existing Charter pursuant to the provisions of the Amended and Restated Charter is not a complete description of all of its provisions and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Amended and Restated Charter, a copy of which is attached to this Proxy Statement as Annex 2. Stockholders should review Annex 2, together with the Existing Charter, which is included as an exhibit to our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC.

Our Existing Charter currently includes provisions related to qualification, disqualification, and removal of a director and termination and cessation of service as a director on the Board (collectively referred to in this Proxy Statement as "Director Service Provisions"). Following a review of our governing documents, the Board believes it would be in the best interests of us and our stockholders to amend and restate our Existing Charter to revise and clarify the Director Service Provisions in a manner that the Board believes will better align the management of our business, the conduct of our affairs, the powers of our directors and stockholders, and the terms of Director Service Provisions with applicable laws, rules, and regulations, including provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law, common law interpreting and applying such provisions, and gaming rules and regulations to which we are subject.

**Summary of Changes in the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation**

The proposed Amended and Restated Charter would amend Article Fifth of our Existing Charter addressing Director Service Provisions. In particular, the amendments in the Amended and Restated Charter would make the following clarifications and revisions:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· A "Disqualified Director" in Section 1(d) of Article Fifth shall mean a director who (i) has been found to be unsuitable to serve as a director by any Gaming Authority (as defined in the Existing Charter) or (ii) has been denied a license, permit, or other qualification by any Gaming Authority (such finding or denial in respect of a Disqualified Director at any time during his or her term of office, a "Director Disqualification Event").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· To qualify as a director in new Section 2(a) of Article Fifth, in addition to any qualifications set forth in our bylaws, as amended (the "Bylaws"), a person must, at any time before or during his or her term of office, not have been found to be unsuitable to serve as a director by any Gaming Authority and not have been denied a license, permit or other qualification by any Gaming Authority.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Any Director Disqualification Event in Section 4 of Article Fifth, in respect of a Disqualified Director, shall automatically constitute the immediate resignation, failure to remain qualified, removal, and termination of such Disqualified Director as a member of the Board, and such Disqualified Director shall automatically cease to be a member of the Board, without further action by our stockholders after adoption of the Amended and Restated Charter or any action or exercise of discretion by the Board. Each director shall be deemed by serving as a director to have consented to, confirmed, and notified us that such director shall serve as a director subject to, the provisions of Section 4 of Article Fifth.

In addition, the Amended and Restated Charter would also make other technical and administrative amendments to the Existing Charter, to, among other things, update Article Second to include the current address of our registered office in the State of Delaware and to include the current number of authorized shares of capital stock in Article Fourth as previously amended pursuant to the Certificate of Amendment of Certificate of Incorporation dated May 4, 2011. A complete copy of the Amended and Restated Charter, which includes the foregoing amendments, is attached as Annex 2 to this Proxy Statement

**Effectiveness of Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation**

The approval of this Proposal 2 requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares of our common stock outstanding and entitled to vote at the annual meeting. Approval of this Proposal 2 will constitute approval of the Amended and Restated Charter, attached hereto as Annex 2. If our stockholders approve the Amended and Restated Charter, it will become effective upon filing of the Amended and Restated Charter with the Delaware Secretary of State, which we anticipate doing as soon as practicable following stockholder approval. Corresponding changes would also be made by the Board to the Bylaws. Should stockholder approval not be obtained, the proposed changes will not be implemented, and our Existing Charter will continue in effect pursuant to its current terms.

**PROPOSAL Three:**

**RATIFICATION OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM**

**________________________________________**

The audit committee appoints, compensates and oversees our independent registered public accounting firm. The audit committee engages in a comprehensive evaluation of the independent registered certified public accounting firm's qualifications, performance and independence and considers the advisability and potential impact of selecting a different independent registered public accounting firm. The audit committee has selected Ernst & Young LLP ("EY") as our independent registered public accounting firm for the year ended December 31, 2026. EY has served as our independent registered public accounting firm since March 2025. In connection with the selection of EY, the audit committee reviewed and negotiated the terms of the engagement letter entered into with EY. This letter sets forth important terms regarding the scope of the engagement, associated fees, payment terms and responsibilities of each party.

The audit committee and our Board believe that the continued retention of EY as our independent registered public accounting firm is both in our best interests and those of our stockholders. As such, we are asking our stockholders to ratify the selection of EY as our independent registered public accounting firm for 2026. Although ratification is not required by our Bylaws or otherwise, we are submitting the selection of EY to our stockholders for ratification because we value our stockholders' views on our independent registered public accounting firm and as a matter of good corporate governance. The audit committee will consider the outcome of our stockholders' vote in connection with the audit committee's selection of our independent registered public accounting firm in the next fiscal year, but is not bound by the stockholders' vote. Even if the selection is ratified, the audit committee may, in its discretion, direct the appointment of a different independent registered public accounting firm at any time if it determines that a change would be in the best interests of us and our stockholders.

Representatives of EY are expected to attend the annual meeting. Representatives will have an opportunity to make a statement if they desire to do so, and they plan to be available to respond to appropriate questions.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

**Audit and Non-Audit Fees**

As discussed below, we retained EY in March 2025 to perform independent audit services for us. No fees were paid to EY for professional audit services in 2024. Prior to March 2025, Deloitte & Touche LLP ("Deloitte") provided independent audit and other services to us. The following table summarizes the fees for professional audit and other services rendered by EY in 2025, and the fees for professional audit and other services rendered by Deloitte in 2024.

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| ***(In thousands)*** |  |  |
|  | **2025** | **2024** |
| Audit fees<sup>(1)</sup> | $867650 | $1437750 |
| Audit-related fees |  |  |
| Tax fees | 155000 |  |
| All other fees |  |  |
| Total | $1022650 | $1437750 |

---

__________

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) These amounts represent fees in connection with the audit of the annual financial statements and the reviews of the financial statements included in each of our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, along with regulatory reporting to state commissions, review of documents filed with the SEC and consents.

**Change in Independent Auditor**

On March 14, 2025, the audit committee of our Board approved the engagement of EY as the new independent registered public accounting firm to perform independent audit services for us for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025, effective as of such date.

Also, on March 14, 2025, the audit committee approved the termination of our engagement of Deloitte as our independent registered public accounting firm, which was then serving in such capacity, and notified Deloitte that it would be dismissed as our independent registered public accounting firm, effective as of such date. Deloitte's audit report on our consolidated financial statements for each of the fiscal years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.

During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 and through March 14, 2025, there were (i) no "disagreements" (as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions) between us and Deloitte on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedures, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Deloitte, would have caused Deloitte to make reference to the subject matter thereof in connection with its reports on our consolidated financial statements for such years, and (ii) no "reportable events" (as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).

During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 and through March 14, 2025, neither we, nor any person acting on our behalf, consulted EY with respect to either (i) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, (ii) the type of the audit opinion that might be rendered on our consolidated financial statements, and no written report or oral advice was provided to us by EY that was an important factor considered by us in reaching a decision as to any accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue, (iii) any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement (as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions), or (iv) any reportable event (as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

We provided Deloitte with a copy of the Current Report on Form 8-K (the "Form 8-K"), which was later filed with the SEC on March 18, 2025, and requested that Deloitte provide us with a letter addressed to the SEC stating whether or not Deloitte agreed with the disclosure contained in the Form 8-K or, if not, stating the respects in which it did not agree. We received the requested letter from Deloitte and a copy of Deloitte's letter was filed as Exhibit 16.1 to the Form 8-K.

**Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures**

The audit committee's policy is to review and pre-approve any engagement of our independent auditors to provide any audit or permissible non-audit service to us. All of the services provided by our independent auditors during fiscal year 2025, as described above, were approved by the audit committee, and the audit committee believes that the provision of these services is consistent with maintaining the auditors' independence.

**Audit Committee Report**

The following report of the audit committee does not constitute soliciting material and should not be deemed filed or incorporated by reference into any of our filings under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except to the extent that we specifically incorporate such report by reference.

The audit committee oversees Full House Resorts, Inc.'s financial reporting process. Management has the primary responsibility for the financial statements and the financial reporting process, including the system of internal controls.

In fulfilling our oversight responsibilities, we reviewed and discussed the financial statements with management. In addition, we discussed with the independent auditors matters deemed significant by the independent auditors, including those matters required to be discussed by the applicable standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board. The audit committee met at the end of each quarter with management and the independent auditors where we reviewed and approved the quarterly and annual filings.

The independent auditors also provided us with the written disclosures and the letter required by Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1 (Independence Discussions with Audit Committees). We discussed with the independent auditors matters relating to their independence and considered whether their provision of non-audit services is compatible with maintaining their independence.

Based on our review with management and the independent auditors of Full House Resorts, Inc.'s audited consolidated financial statements and the independent auditors' report on such financial statements, and based on the discussions and written disclosures described above and our business judgment, we recommended that the audited consolidated financial statements be included in Full House Resorts, Inc.'s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 for filing with the SEC.

**PROPOSAL FOUR:**

**ADVISORY VOTE ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION**

**________________________________________**

The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 (the "Dodd-Frank Act"), which enacted Section 14A of the Exchange Act, requires that our stockholders have the opportunity to cast a non-binding advisory vote regarding the approval of the compensation of our named executive officers as disclosed in this proxy statement in accordance with the SEC's rules.

Our executive compensation programs are designed to attract, motivate and retain our executive officers, who are critical to our success. Please read the section of this proxy statement titled "Executive Compensation" for details about our executive compensation programs, including information about the 2025 compensation of our named executive officers.

As described under the heading "Corporate Governance," our compensation committee reviews and makes recommendations to the Board, as appropriate, regarding compensation to be paid to our executive officers and directors. Management provides recommendations to the compensation committee on the amount and type of executive compensation, as well as individual performance objectives for bonuses and incentive compensation. The compensation committee reviews these recommendations, along with information previously provided by an executive employment consultant, to formulate the committee's recommendations to the Board. The compensation committee determines the achievement of financial and individual performance objectives, based upon which it approves the compensation of the CEO and recommends, for the Board's approval, the compensation of our other named executive officers.

We are asking our stockholders to indicate their support for our named executive officer compensation as described in this proxy statement. This proposal, commonly known as a "Say on Pay" proposal, gives our stockholders the opportunity to express their views on our named executive officers' compensation by voting for or against the following resolution (or by abstaining with respect to the resolution).

RESOLVED, that the compensation paid to our named executive officers, as disclosed in this proxy statement pursuant to the compensation disclosure rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the Summary Compensation Table, other executive compensation tables and related narrative disclosures is hereby APPROVED.

The "Say on Pay" vote is advisory, and therefore not binding on us, the compensation committee or our Board. However, the compensation committee and our Board value the opinions expressed by stockholders in their vote on this proposal and will consider the outcome of the vote when making future compensation decisions for named executive officers. The approval of this proposal requires the number of votes cast in favor of this proposal to exceed the number of votes cast in opposition to this proposal.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) Shares are considered beneficially owned, for purposes of this table only, if held by the person indicated as beneficial owner, or if such person, directly or indirectly, through any contract, arrangement, understanding, relationship, or otherwise, has or shares the power to vote, to direct the voting of and/or dispose of or to direct the disposition of, such security, or if the person has a right to acquire beneficial ownership within 60 days of March 18, 2026, unless otherwise indicated in these footnotes. Any securities outstanding that are subject to options exercisable within 60 days are deemed to be outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage of outstanding securities of the class owned by such person, but are not deemed to be outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage of the class owned by any other person. Unless otherwise indicated in the footnotes, each person or entity has sole voting and dispositive power with respect to the shares shown as beneficially owned. The percentages shown are based on 36,192,328 shares of common stock issued and outstanding as of March 18, 2026.

**Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance**

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, requires our directors and executive officers and persons who own more than ten percent of our outstanding common stock, to file with the SEC initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership of common stock. These persons are required by SEC regulations to furnish us with copies of all such reports they file.

To our knowledge, based solely on a review of the copies of such reports furnished to us and written representations that no other reports were required, we believe that all Section 16(a) reports were timely filed by our officers, directors and greater than 10% beneficial owners.

*Proposals Not Included in the Proxy Statement and Nominations for Director*. Stockholder proposals not included in our proxy statement and stockholder nominations for director may be brought before an annual meeting of stockholders in accordance with the advance notice procedures described in our Bylaws. In general, notice must be received by the Secretary not less than 90 days nor more than 120 days prior to the anniversary date of the immediately preceding annual meeting (i.e., May 14, 2027). For the 2027 annual meeting of stockholders, the Secretary must receive notice of the proposal on or after the close of business on January 14, 2027 and no later than the close of business on February 13, 2027. Stockholder proposals must be in proper written form and must meet the detailed disclosure requirements set forth in our Bylaws. If the annual meeting is not within 30 days in advance of the anniversary date of the prior year's annual meeting or not within 70 days after the anniversary date of the prior year's annual meeting, we must receive your notice no later than 10 days following the date of public disclosure of the annual meeting date. The notice must also meet all other requirements contained in Article I, Section 12 of our Bylaws.

**Communications with the Board of Directors**

Our Board believes it important that interested parties have the opportunity to communicate their concerns directly to our Board. Stockholders may contact or communicate with an individual director or our Board as a group, including the non-employee directors as a group, by addressing a letter to Full House Resorts, Inc., Attention: Board of Directors c/o Secretary, 1980 Festival Plaza Drive, Suite 680, Las Vegas, Nevada 89135. Each communication should specify the applicable addressee or addressees to be contacted. The Secretary will forward communications intended for the Board to the Chairman, or, if intended for an individual director, to that director.

**Proxy Solicitation Costs**

We will pay the cost of preparing, assembling and mailing the proxy statement, notice of meeting and enclosed proxy card. In addition to the use of mail, our employees or authorized agents may solicit proxies personally and by telephone. Our employees will receive no compensation for soliciting proxies other than their regular salaries. We may request banks, brokers and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries to forward copies of the proxy material to their principals and to request authority for the execution of proxies, and we may reimburse those persons for their expenses incurred in connection with these activities. We will compensate only independent third-party agents that are not affiliated with us to solicit proxies. At this time, we do not anticipate that we will be retaining a third-party solicitation firm, but should we determine in the future that it is in our best interests to do so, we will retain a solicitation firm and pay for all costs and expenses associated with retaining this solicitation firm.

**List of Stockholders Entitled to Vote at the Annual Meeting**

A list of stockholders entitled to vote at the annual meeting will be available at our offices for a period of ten days prior to the annual meeting and at the meeting itself for examination by any stockholder for any purpose germane to the meeting.

**Householding**

Under the rules adopted by the SEC, we may deliver a single set of proxy materials to one address shared by two or more of our stockholders. This delivery method is referred to as "householding" and can result in significant cost savings. To take advantage of this opportunity, we have delivered only one set of proxy materials to multiple stockholders who share an address, unless we received contrary instructions from the affected stockholders prior to the mailing date. We agree to deliver promptly, upon written or oral request, a separate copy of the proxy materials, as requested, to any stockholder at the shared address to which a single copy of these documents was delivered. If you prefer to receive separate copies of the proxy statement or annual report, please contact Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. by calling 1-866-540-7095 or in writing at 51 Mercedes Way, Edgewood, New York 11717, Attention: Householding Department.

In addition, if you currently are a stockholder who shares an address with another stockholder and would like to receive only one copy of future notices and proxy materials for your household, you may notify your broker if your shares are held in a brokerage account or you may notify us if you hold registered shares. Registered stockholders may notify us by contacting Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. at the above telephone number or address.

**ANNEX 1:**

**GAAP TO NON-GAAP RECONCILIATIONS**

**________________________________________**

We use Adjusted EBITDA as a measure of our performance. We utilize Adjusted Segment EBITDA as the measure of segment profitability in assessing performance and allocating resources at the reportable segment level. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest and other non-operating income (expense), taxes, depreciation and amortization, preopening expenses, certain impairment charges, asset write-offs, recoveries, gain (loss) from asset sales and disposals, project development and acquisition costs, and non-cash stock-based compensation expense. Adjusted EBITDA information is presented solely as supplemental disclosure to measures reported in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("GAAP") because management believes this measure is (i) a widely used measure of operating performance in the gaming and hospitality industries and (ii) a principal basis for valuation of gaming and hospitality companies. In addition, a version of Adjusted EBITDA (known as Consolidated Cash Flow) is utilized in the covenants within our revolving credit facility agreement, although not necessarily defined in the same way as above. Adjusted EBITDA is not, however, a measure of financial performance or liquidity under GAAP. Accordingly, this measure should be considered supplemental and not a substitute for net income (loss) or cash flows as an indicator of the Company's operating performance or liquidity.

The following table presents a reconciliation of net loss to Adjusted EBITDA:
