             NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


1.   FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

     The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have
     been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
     for interim financial information, the instructions to Form 10-Q and
     Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the
     information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting
     principles for complete financial statements.  In the opinion of
     management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals)
     considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.  Due to
     the seasonality of the Company's businesses, operating results for the
     three month period ended September 30, 1995 are not necessarily indicative
     of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending June 30,
     1996.  For further information, refer to the consolidated financial
     statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on
     Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 1995.

 
2.   SUMMARIZED INCOME STATEMENT INFORMATION OF NONCONSOLIDATED AFFILIATES

     interest in Posadas de San Juan Associates ("PSJA") for the three months
     ended September 30, 1995 and 1994. The El Conquistador Hotel & Casino ("El
     Conquistador") has a March 31 year end, which is three months earlier than
     the Company's year end of June 30 and accordingly the equity in the results

3.   SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
     -----------------

     On October 18, 1995, Bally Gaming International, Inc. (Bally Gaming)
     reported the unilateral termination of the June 21, 1995 Agreement and Plan
     of Merger (Agreement) with the Company and that it had entered into a
     merger agreement with Alliance Gaming Corporation. The Company does not
     intend to contest Bally Gaming and Alliance's decision to merge. On October
     23, 1995, the Company commenced a lawsuit against Bally Gaming for its
     failure to pay $4.8 million in termination fees due the Company under the
     terms of the Agreement and for additional damages.

     At September 30, 1995, the Company had incurred approximately $1.8 million
     in acquisition costs from the proposed merger, included as noncurrent other
     assets in the Balance Sheet at September 30, 1995, which will be offset
     against the termination fees when received.

                                ---------------
          MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                           AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

FINANCIAL CONDITION
- -------------------

Cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities during the
three months ended September 30, 1995 resulted in net cash provided of
$20,406,000 as compared with net cash used of $8,726,000 during the three
months ended September 30, 1994.  See condensed consolidated statements of
cash flows on page 5.

Operating activities used cash of $21,700,000 during the three months ended
September 30, 1995 compared with $7,215,000 for the three months ended
September 30, 1994.  This change results from the use of cash since June
30, 1995 for operating assets and liabilities, net, primarily for an
increase in home video game inventories and an increase in receivables from
higher sales of home video games in the fiscal 1996 quarter.  The increase
in inventories and receivables was partially offset by an increase in
payables to the manufacturers of the home video games.

Investing cash flows used for the purchase of property, plant and equipment
during the three months ended September 30, 1995 were $4,199,000 as
compared with $2,625,000 during the three months ended September 30, 1994.
The asset additions were primarily for the amusement games business.
Investing cash flows provided by the net sale of short-term investments
were $47,863,000 in the 1995 period compared to $5,750,000 in the 1994
period.

Cash used by financing activities for the payment of long-term debt was
$1,607,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1995 compared with cash
used of $711,000 for the same period last year.

The Condado Plaza has a $2,000,000 bank line of credit available which was
fully utilized at September 30, 1995 and the El San Juan has a $1,000,000
bank line of credit available of which $500,000 was borrowed at September
30, 1995.  Condado Plaza and El San Juan long-term debt agreements provide
that advances, dividends and other payments to the owners are to be based
on defined levels of cash flow from the respective hotel/casino. Management
believes that cash flow from hotel/casino operations will be adequate to
pay their long-term debt as it becomes due and provide for the normal
planned capital additions.

WMS Industries Inc. has an uncollateralized bank line of credit which
permits it to borrow up to $25,000,000 or permits it or U.S. operating
subsidiaries to have letters of credit up to $25,000,000 outstanding. The
letter of credit availability was increased to $75,000,000 through December
31, 1995.  At September 30,  1995, there were no borrowings from this line
of credit but there were outstanding letters of credit totaling
$30,296,000.  Interest on the initial borrowings will be at a short-term
Eurodollar rate plus .75%.  Management believes that cash flow from
operations, cash and cash equivalents and amounts available under the line
of credit will be adequate to fund the fluctuating level of inventories and
receivables required in the operation of the business and provide for
expansion of the business including the home video game business and gaming
devices.

</TABLE>

THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1995 COMPARED WITH
THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1994

Consolidated revenues increased from $82,387,000 in the quarter ended September
30, 1994 to $97,644,000 in the quarter ended September 30, 1995.  Revenues of
the amusement games business increased 26% to $84,240,000 in the quarter ended
September 30, 1995. The increase in amusement games revenues results from a 109%
increase in sales of home video games as compared to the prior year quarter.
Sales for the quarter ended September 30, 1995 includes initial partial
shipments of Doom and Mortal Kombat 3 home video game cartridges. Coin operated
game sales and royalty income were 14% lower because of a 56% decrease in
pinball sales caused by a soft market which was partially offset by a
significant increase in sales of coin operated video games in the quarter ended
September 30, 1995.

Gross profit (excluding depreciation) of the amusement games business increased
in the quarter ended September 30, 1995 to $20,219,000 (24.0% of amusement games
business revenues) compared with $13,379,000 (20.0% of such revenues) in the
quarter ended September 30, 1994. The improvement in gross profit resulted from
the increased revenues from home video game cartridges that have higher gross
margins.  However, a planned increase in research and development expense to
$7,516,000 in the quarter ended September 30, 1995 from $6,359,000 in the prior
year quarter reduced gross profit.  The increased research and development
expenses include expenses associated with the Company's development of gaming
products and video games.

Operating profit of the amusement games business on a segment basis increased to
$5,609,000 in the quarter ended September 30, 1995 from $3,762,000 in the
quarter ended September 30, 1994.  The improvement in operating profit was
primarily due to the same reasons as the increase in gross profit noted above
but reduced by higher selling and administrative and depreciation expenses.  
The increase in selling and administrative expense of the amusement games 

                                       9

business was primarily caused by an increase of $3,718,000 of selling and
administrative expense in the home video game cartridge business, primarily
advertising to support new product releases, and $709,000 higher selling and
administrative expense for gaming products. Depreciation expense incurred by the
amusement games business increased by $350,000.

Condado Plaza revenues were $11,260,000 in the quarter ended September 30, 1995
compared to $13,235,000 in the quarter ended September 30, 1994.  Hotel revenues
were in line with the prior year quarter while casino net revenue decreased
primarily due to a significantly lower win percentage and higher casino
promotional expenses related to increased credit play.

The Condado Plaza's profit before selling and administrative expense (excluding
depreciation) decreased to $2,728,000 (24.2% of the Condado Plaza revenues) in
the quarter ended September 30, 1995 from $3,021,000 (22.8% of the Condado Plaza
revenues) in the quarter ended September 30, 1994.  The decrease was due to the
lower revenues as explained above.  However, profit before selling and
administrative expense (excluding depreciation) in the quarter ended September
30, 1995 increased as a percentage of revenues primarily due to emergency water
expenses incurred during the drought in the quarter ended September 30, 1994.

The Condado Plaza on a segment basis had an operating loss of ($1,340,000) for
the September 30, 1995 quarter compared with a loss of ($1,460,000) in the
quarter ended September 30, 1994.  Notwithstanding the decrease in profit before
selling and administrative expense (excluding depreciation), the operating loss
was reduced as the result of lower administrative and insurance costs in
comparison with the prior year quarter.

Williams Hospitality revenues (before intersegment elimination) decreased to
$2,764,000 in the quarter ended September 30, 1995 from $3,202,000 in the
quarter ended September 30, 1994.  These revenues consist primarily of
management and incentive fees based upon the revenues and gross operating
profits of the three hotel/casino operations.  The lower revenue at Williams
Hospitality is consistent with the lower revenues and operating profits
experienced at two of the hotel/casinos.

The equity in loss of nonconsolidated affiliates was ($2,087,000) in the quarter
ended September 30, 1995 as compared with ($2,074,000) in the quarter ended
September 30, 1994.  The change was small and included a decrease in the
Company's equity in net loss from the El Conquistador Hotel and Casino that was
($737,000) in the quarter ended September 30, 1995 compared with ($1,023,000) in
the September 30, 1994 quarter. Like most resort properties El Conquistador is
expected to report losses in its early years, but the Company's 23.3% equity in
the losses are expected to be partially offset by the Company's 62% interest in
the management fees earned during the year by Williams Hospitality from El
Conquistador.  The 50% equity in the loss of the El San Juan increased to
($1,350,000) in the quarter ended September 30, 1995 from an equity in loss of
($1,051,000) in the prior year quarter.  The El San Juan's hotel revenues
increased slightly due to higher food and beverage revenues but the casino
experienced a 42% decline in its net revenues from both lower table play and
lower win percentage.  In spite of lower revenues, net loss was kept relatively
stable because of decreased operating expenses.

Consolidated selling and administrative expense increased primarily as a result
of the selling and administration expenses of the home video game business and
higher selling and administrative expenses for gaming products noted above.

Net income in the quarter ended September 30, 1995 was $268,000, $.01 per share,
in comparison to a net loss of ($1,073,000), ($.04) per share, in the quarter
ended September 30, 1994.  The improvement in the first quarter operating
results compared to the prior year first quarter was primarily due to higher
home video game sales.  Higher research and development expenses and higher
gaming products selling and administrative expenses had a negative impact on net
income, the benefits of which are expected to be realized in future periods.
The hotel/casino business operated at a net loss of ($2,723,000), ($.12) per
share, in the September 30, 1995 quarter in comparison to a net loss of
($2,890,000), ($.12) per share, in the prior year first quarter.
