</TABLE>
2.        Lines of Credit


          As of December 31, 1994, the Company had a $50.0 million unsecured 
bank line of credit with various interest rate options available to the 
Company.  The line of credit is used for the purpose of funding operations and 
to facilitate standby letters of credit.   The Company is charged a nominal 
fee on amounts used against the line as security for letters of credit.  
Funds available under this line are reduced by any amounts used as security 
for letters of credit.  At December 31,1994, $46.0 was available under
this line of credit.

          IGT-Australia had a $440,000 (Australian) bank line of 
credit available as of December 31, 1994.  Interest is paid at the lender's 
reference rate plus 1%.  This line is secured by equitable mortgages,
and has a provision for review and renewal annually in May.
At December 31, 1994, no funds were drawn under this line.

          The Company is required to comply, and is in compliance, with
certain covenants contained in these line of credit agreements which, 
among other things, limit financial commitments the Company may make without
written consent of the lender and require the maintenance of certain 
financial ratios, minimum working capital and net worth of the Company.

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

3.        Debt Offerings

          Senior Notes

          In September 1994, the Company completed a $100,000,000 
private placement of 7.84% Senior Notes (the "Senior Notes").
The Senior Notes require annual principal payments of $14.3 million
commencing in September 1998 through 2003 and
a final principal payment of $14.2 million in September 2004.  
Interest is paid quarterly.  The Senior Notes contain covenants which 
limit the financial commitments the Company may make and require the 
maintenance of a minimum level of consolidated net worth.  
The net proceeds from the Senior Notes of $99.6 million will be used
to finance the construction of a new manufacturing and
headquarters facility and for general corporate purposes.

          Australian Cash Advance Facility

          In August 1994, the Company was advanced $18,000,000 (Australian), 
from an Australian bank under a cash advance facility.  Annual principal
payments (Australian) are $3,000,000, $6,000,000, $6,000,000 and $3,000,000 
at September 30, 1995, 1996, 1997, and June 30, 1998, respectively.  
Interest is paid quarterly in arrears at a blended rate comprised of fixed
and floating rates.  The proceeds of the loan were used to acquire 
manufacturing and administrative facilities in Sydney, Australia.

4.        Construction of New Corporate Headquarters and Manufacturing 
           Facility

          In May 1994, the Company purchased a 78 acre site in Reno Nevada for
approximately $6.0 million for the construction of an approximately 1,000,000
square foot office, manufacturing and warehousing facility. Currently the
facility is in its design phase with an estimated completion date of late
calendar 1996, absent unexpected delays, and an estimated construction cost of
$75.0 million.

5.        Income Taxes

          The provision for income taxes is computed on pre-tax 
income reported in the financial statements.  The provision differs from 
income taxes currently payable because certain items of income
and expense are recognized  in different periods for financial 
statement and tax return purposes.

6.        Concentrations of Credit Risk

          The financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to
concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents
and accounts, contracts, and notes receivable.  The Company maintains cash and
cash equivalents with various financial institutions in amounts, which at 
times, may be in excess of the FDIC insurance limits.

          Product sales and the resulting receivables are concentrated 
in specific legalized gaming regions.  The Company also distributes a
portion of its products through third party distributors resulting 
in significant distributor receivables.  At December 31, 1994 accounts, 
contracts, and notes receivable by region as a percentage of 
total receivables are as follows:

</TABLE>

          Effective September 30, 1993, the Company sold its equity 
ownership interest in CMS-International (CMS) to Summit 
Casinos-Nevada, Inc. ( Summit ), whose owners include senior 
management of CMS.  The Company remains as guarantor on certain 
indebtedness of CMS, which had at December 31, 1994 an aggregate balance
of $16.7 million.  The notes that have been guaranteed are also collateralized 
by the respective casino properties. Summit has agreed to indemnify and hold
the Company harmless against any liabiliy arising under these guarantees. 
Management believes the likelihood of losses relating to these guarantees 
is remote.

7.        Subsequent Events

          A stock repurchase program was originally authorized by the 
Board of Directors in October 1989.  This repurchase 
program was most recently reaffirmed in February 1994 and currently 
allows for the purchase of up to 24.0 million shares. During 
January 1995, the Company purchased 2,525,150 shares of its own
outstanding stock for a total of $33,555,226 in cash. 
As of January 31, 1995, the Company has purchased a total of 
16.6 million shares (adjusted for stock splits) under this repurchase program.

8.        Supplemental Statement of Cash Flows Information

          Certain noncash investing and financing activities are not 
reflected in the consolidated statements of cash flows.

          The tax benefit of stock options totaled $168,000 and 
$3,948,000 for the three months ended December 31, 1994 and 1993, respectively.

          In May 1991, the Company completed a $115,000,000 public offering of 
5 1/2% Convertible Subordinated Notes (the  Notes ) maturing 
June 1, 2001. At the option of the holder, the Notes were convertible 
into common stock of theCompany.  During the three months ended 
December 31, 1993, notes with a face amount of $20,308,000 were 
converted to 2,627,520 shares of the Company's common stock.  
All the Notes were converted as of May 31, 1994.

          During the quarter ended December 31, 1994, unrealized 
losses on investments, net of taxes totaling $900,000 were recorded as  
Unrealized Losses on Investments  in stockholder s equity.

          On December 2, 1994, the Board of Directors declared a quarterly 
cash dividend of $.03 per share, payable on March 1, 1995 
to shareholders of record at the close of business on February 1, 1995.  
At December 31, 1994, the Company had accrued $3,973,000 for the 
payment of this dividend.

          Payments of interest for the three months ended 
December 31, 1994 and 1993 were $4,723,000 and $3,761,000, respectively.  
Payments for income taxes for the first three months of fiscal 1995 
and 1994 were $1,500,000 and $12,788,000, respectively.

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

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - THREE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1994
          COMPARED TO THE THREE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1993

          Revenues totaled $159.2 million in the first quarter of fiscal 1995 
as compared to $149.8 million in the same period of fiscal 1994. Net income
for the quarter was $25.6 million or $.19 per share (fully diluted) 
versus $30.4 million or $.22 per share in the prior year.

Revenues and Cost of Sales 

          Total revenues increased 6.3% due to a 1% improvement in 
product sales and growth in gaming operations of 24%.

          Product sales revenues were $114.1 million and $113.4 
million for the first quarter of fiscal 1995 and 1994, respectively.  
During the first quarter of fiscal 1995, the Company sold 
20,000 gaming machines compared to 22,000 sold in the same prior 
year period.  The average sales price per machine increased in the current 
quarter due to the embedded bill acceptor.  Product sales during the
first quarter of fiscal 1994 were driven by the opening of new casinos 
in the midwestern riverboat and Nevada markets, including such 
"mega-resorts" as the MGM Grand and Treasure Island.  During the 
first quarter of 1995, large machine installations for new gaming 
operations were significantly lower than in the same period 
of fiscal 1994.  However, replacement of older gaming machines with
machines equipped with the embedded bill acceptor generated strong sales 
in the Nevada, New Jersey and Native American gaming markets during the 
current quarter. Gaming machine sales in the European markets through the 
Company's subsidiary IGT-Europe also increased.

          Revenues from gaming operations totaled $45 million during 
the quarter ended December 31, 1994 compared to $36.3 million 
in the comparable prior year period.  This increase was a result 
of a 23% gain in progressive systems and a 32% improvement in 
lease revenue.  Throughout fiscal 1994, several progressive 
inter-link systems were introduced in Mississippi, Louisiana, 
and Native American gaming markets. These new systems contributed to the 
increase in progressive system revenue.  Additionally, 
increased play in the existing markets of New Jersey and Colorado 
resulted in higher revenues.  Lease revenues grew as a result
of the placement of leased units in the Midwestern riverboat market.

          Gross profit on total revenues for the first quarter of 
1995 was $73.9 million or 46% compared to $72.4 million and 
48% in the same period last year.  The gross margin on product sales 
declined from 47% to 42% in the 
<PAGE>


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

current quarter.  This decline resulted in part from increased sales of 
gaming machines with embedded bill acceptors, which had lower gross profit 
margins.  In an effort to reduce inventory, production levels were lowered, 
which resulted in higher production costs per unit.  The gross margin 
on gaming operations has increased from 53% in the first quarter 
of fiscal 1994 to 58% in the first quarter of fiscal 1995.  This improvement 
is primarily due to higher interest rates during the first quarter of fiscal 
1995 which resulted in a lower cost of annuities the Company purchases 
to fund jackpot payments.

          Expenses

          Selling, general and administrative expenses totaled $22.4 
million in thecurrent quarter versus $16.8 million in the same period 
last year.  The primary factor for this increase is higher staffing 
levels throughout the Company. These positions were added to support 
higher revenue levels, identify and develop new markets and to address 
the Company's expanded administrative needs.  Costs associated with 
new products and markets, such as business insurance, gaming machine 
test and compliance fees, and lobbyist services, also increased. Research
and development expenses increased $3.2 million to $7.1 million for the 
quarter ended December 31, 1994.  This growth relates to costs incurred 
to supportadditional engineering personnel.  The Company devotes 
substantial resources in this area to continue the aggressive development 
of new gaming products and systems for existing and potential markets. 

          Depreciation and amortization increased $1.7 million to $6.3 
million in the first quarter of fiscal 1995.  The additional depreciation 
relates to asset acquisitions made over the past year.  Such acquisitions 
include manufacturing and administrative equipment and a new facility in 
Australia, which replaced a leased facility.  To a lesser extent, the 
acceleration of depreciation on existing leasehold improvements 
in anticipation of moving to the new manufacturing and administrative 
facility (see footnote 4) contributed to the overall increase.
<PAGE>
Item 2.   Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
          and Results of Operations

          Other Income and Expense

          Interest income increased 33% or $2.3 million to $9 million for
the quarter ended December 31, 1994.  Higher average balances and the 
increase in interest rates resulted in growth in interest income earned on the 
Company's notes and contracts receivable.  Increased interest income on 
investments to fund jackpot liabilities also contributed to the overall 
improvement in interest income.  Growth in progressive systems play, as 
discussed above, results in increased income-producing investments to
fund future jackpot payments. 

         Interest expense totaled $5.1 million for the first quarter of 
fiscal 1995, an increase of $2.3 million.  Additional borrowings in late 
fiscal 1994 (see footnote 3) resulted in increased interest expense for 
the quarter.  Interest expense also grew in relation to the 
growth in jackpot liabilities.  These increases were partially offset by 
interest savings realized from the conversion from October 1993 through 
May 1994 of the Convertible Subordinated Notes into common stock of the 
Company.

          In the first quarter of fiscal 1994, the gain on sale of assets
related to realized gains on investments totaled $477,000.  In the current 
quarter, the loss on sale of assets was due to realized and unrealized 
losses on investments totaling $695,000.  

WORKING CAPITAL AND CASH FLOW

          Working capital increased $17.0 million to $497.7 million during 
the three months ended December 31, 1994.  The primary factors for this 
improvement are as follows:  Cash and cash equivalents grew $54.6 million 
(see discussion below). Accounts receivable increased $21.9 million due to
large trade sales near the end of the quarter.  Inventories declined 
$21 million in response to efforts to reduce overall inventory levels.  
Accrued employee benefit plan liabilities decreased $12.3 million as a 
result of payment of these incentives.  Accrued income taxes increased 
$20 million due to timing differences in tax payments.

<PAGE>
Item 2.   Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
          and Results of Operations

          During the three month period, the Company generated cash from 
operations and financing activities of $46.6 million and $10.6 million, 
respectively.  The positive impact of declining inventory levels on cash 
provided by operating activities was partially offset by increasing 
receivables.  The overall cash accumulation was offset by cash used in 
investing activities of $2.6 million, primarily associated with purchases 
of short term investments, fixed assets, and investments to fund jackpot 
liabilities.

LINES OF CREDIT

          As of December 31, 1994, the Company had a $50.0 million unsecured 
bank line of credit with various interest rate options available to 
the Company. The line of credit is used for the purpose of funding operations 
and to facilitate standby letters of credit.  The Company is charged a 
nominal fee on amounts used against the line as security for letters of 
credit.  Funds available under this line are reduced by any amounts 
used as security for letters of credit.  At December 31, 1994, $46.0 million 
was available under this line of credit.

          IGT-Australia had a $440,000 (Australian) bank line of credit 
available as of December 31, 1994.  Interest is paid at the lender's reference 
rate plus 1%.  This line is secured by equitable mortgages, and has a provision 
for review and renewal annually in May.  At December 31, 1994, no funds 
were drawn under this line.

          The Company is required to comply, and is in compliance, with 
certain covenants contained in these line of credit agreements which, 
among other things, limit financial commitments the Company may make without 
written consent of the lender and require the maintenance of certain financial 
ratios, minimum working capital and net worth of the Company.

ADOPTION OF RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

          The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards 
No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Marketable Securities," effective as of 
October 1, 1994. There was no material effect on the Company's financial 
statements due to the adoption of this statement.
