                     Notes to Unaudited Financial Statements

                      March 31, 1997 and December 31, 1996




 (1) Basis of Presentation

     (a)  Corporate   Organization  The  accompanying   consolidated   financial
statements  include  the  accounts  of Debbie  Reynolds  Hotel &  Casino,  Inc.,
formerly Halter Venture Corporation  (Halter) and its wholly-owned  subsidiaries
Debbie  Reynolds  Management  Company,  Inc.,  formerly  Debbie Reynolds Hotel &
Casino, Inc. (DRMC) and Debbie Reynolds Resorts,  Inc. (DRRI)  (collectively the
Companies).  The December  31, 1996 balance  sheet data was derived from audited
financial  statements  of Debbie  Reynolds  Hotel & Casino,  Inc.,  but does not
include all disclosures  required by generally accepted  accounting  principles.
Users of financial  information provided for interim periods should refer to the
annual  financial  information  and footnotes  contained in the Annual Report on
Form 10-KSB when reviewing the interim financial  results presented herein.  All
intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In
the  opinion  of  management,   the  accompanying  unaudited  interim  financial
statements are prepared in accordance  with the  instructions on Form 10-QSB and
contain  all  material   adjustments,   consisting  only  of  normal   recurring
adjustments,  necessary to present  fairly the financial  condition,  results of
operations  and cash flows of the Company  for the  respective  interim  periods
presented.  The  current  period  results  of  operations  are  not  necessarily
indicative of results which ultimately will be reported for the full year ending
December 31, 1997.

(b) Description of Business

The Company's operations consist primarily of the hotel operations of DRMC and
the timeshare operations of DebbieReynolds Resorts,  Inc. ("DRRI"),  a wholly-
owned  subsidiary of DRMC. DRMC owns and operates the Debbie Reynolds Hotel & 
Casino (the "Hotel"),  a gift shop, the Hollywood  Motion Picture Museum, a 
restaurant and bar and a showroom located on Convention Center Drive in Las 
Vegas, Nevada. The Company's operations,  through DRRI,  also consist of the 
sale of timeshare units in the Debbie Reynolds Hotel.  DRRI obtained a permanent
timeshare license on June 28, 1994. The Company is in the  process of 
restructuring  its  timeshare  division  and  currently  is not actively  
selling  timeshare  units.  In addition,  DRMC and its management have
pending  applications  filed  for  a  gaming  license  from  the  Nevada  gaming
authorities;  however,  there  can be no  assurance  that such  license  will be
granted. Due to the Company's poor capital structure and acting on the advice of
counsel,  the Company requested the Nevada Gaming Authorities to place a hold on
processing  its  pending  gaming   applications   until  its  capital  structure
substantially  improves.  Prior to March 31, 1996, the Company leased space to a
third party for the operation of a casino.  The Company served the operator with
a  termination  notice  in  February  1996  pursuant  to the  terms of the lease
agreement,  because the Company was losing money on a monthly basis. The Company
requested Jackpot to cease operations as of June 30, 1996. On March 31, 1996 the
operator discontinued its gaming operations on the property,  removed all of its
gaming  equipment and  subsequently  filed a lawsuit against DRHC. [See Item 3 -
Legal Proceedings]

On October 30, 1996 the Company entered into an Agreement for Purchase and Sale 
with ILX  Incorporated  ("ILX") under which ILX would purchase the Debbie 
Reynolds Hotel & Casino (the "Hotel"),  including all of the Hotel's real and 
personal  property  and the  Hotel's  timeshare  operations  (the "ILX 
Agreement").  ILX is a publicly-held corporation based in Phoenix, Arizona which
principally owns,  operates and markets resort  properties in Arizona,  Florida,
Indiana and Mexico.  On May 15,  1997 ILX elected to cancel and  terminate  this
Agreement. The Company and ILX continue to negotiate an alternative transaction.
There  is no  guarantee  that an  alternative  agreement  will be  reached.

The Company's recurring losses from operations,  its working capital deficiency,
its shareholders equity deficiency, its significant debt service obligations and
its default with respect to various agreements raise substantial doubt about the
Company's ability to continue as a going concern.  The ability of the Company to
continue as a going  concern is  dependent  on its ability to obtain  additional
financing to finance its working  capital  deficit until such time as cash flows
from  operations are sufficient to finance the Company's  operations,  including
the Company's proposed casino operations.

On July 3, 1997 the Company filed for relief under  Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy
Code.  Due to the  inability of the Company to generate  sufficient  funds to 
cover all of its expenses it filed for relief  under  Chapter  11  of  the  
Bankruptcy  Code.  The  Company  will  seek reorganization  of its debts.  Also
filing were subsidiary  companies Debbie Reynolds Management Company and Debbie 
Reynolds Resorts, Inc. In addition,  Miss Debbie  Reynolds has resigned as 
Chairman of the Board, Director and an Officer of Debbie Reynolds Hotel &
Casino,  Inc., Debbie Reynolds Management Company and Debbie Reynolds Resorts,
Inc.

Debbie  Reynolds and Raymax  Productions,  LTD, ("Raymax"),  a  corporation 
wholly-owned  by  Ms.  Reynolds,  terminated  their services agreement with the
Company in November 1996 due to the Company's default  under the agreement.  Ms.
Reynolds has agreed to render showroom and other services on an "at will" basis,
terminable at anytime.  In addition, in November 1996 Ms.  Reynolds  terminated
her License Agreement with the Company with respect to her Hollywood memorabilia
collection and her name and likeness due to the Company's  defaults  under the 
agreements.  Also, Hollywood  Motion Picture and Television  Museum, a non-
profit organization, has terminated its License  Agreement  with the Company 
with respect to its  Hollywood  memorabilia collection due to the Company's
defaults, effective January 1997.

The Company's  principal  executive offices are located at 305 Convention Center
Drive, Las Vegas, Nevada 89109 and its telephone number is (702) 734-0711.

(2) Capital Stock  Transactions

See (Item 2)  Management's  Discussion  and  Analysis,  (2)
Liquidity and Capital  Resources,  for  additional  discussions of the Company's
capital stock transactions.

(3) Contingencies

The Company is involved in various claims and legal  actions.  In the opinion of

PART I. ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S  DISCUSSION  AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF
OPERATIONS

(1)  Overview

 The  accompanying  consolidated  financial  statements
include the accounts of Debbie  Reynolds  Hotel & Casino,  Inc.  (the  Company),
formerly  Halter  Venture  Corporation  (Halter)  and its  present  wholly-owned
subsidiaries, Debbie Reynolds Management Company, Inc., formerly Debbie Reynolds
Hotel & Casino,  Inc. (DRMC) and its  wholly-owned  subsidiary,  Debbie Reynolds
Resorts, Inc. (DRRI). The accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect
the historical  operations of DRMC and DRRI.

(2) Liquidity and Capital Resources

In February  1995,  the Company  obtained a $525,000  loan from Bennett  Funding
International, LTD., ("Bennett"), the proceeds of which were principally used in
the  construction  of the museum and for general  corporate  purposes.  The loan
bears interest at 13% and was due March 22, 1997 and is in default.  The loan is
secured by the Company's real and personal property.

In May 1995, the Company obtained a $340,000 loan from Bennett,  the proceeds of
which were  principally  used for  general  corporate  purposes.  The loan bears
interest  at 13% and  was due and is in  default.  The  loan is  secured  by the
Company's real and personal property.

In August  1995,  the  Company  obtained a  $2,865,000  loan from  Bennett,  the
proceeds of which were principally used to pay off existing debt and for general
corporate  purposes,  which includes the $340,000 advanced to the Company in May
of 1995 and $525,000  advanced in February of 1995.  The loan bears  interest at
14% and is due August 23, 1999.  The loan is secured by the  Company's  real and
personal  property.  Ms.  Reynolds has  personally  guaranteed  this loan. As of
January 1997, this loan is in default.

Commencing in December 1995, the Company obtained additional financing through a
Regulation D offering under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Act").  The Company
sold 200,000 units,  consisting of 200,000 shares of the Company's  common stock
and 200,000  warrants to purchase one share of common stock at $1.00,  totalling
net  proceeds of  approximately  $182,000.  The  offering of shares was directed
solely to persons who met the definition of  "Accredited  Investor" set forth in
rule 501(A) of  Regulation D  promulgated  under the Act. The Company  offered a
maximum of 3,000,000 Units,  (the "Unit"),  each unit consisting of one share of
Common  Stock and one warrant to purchase one share of common stock at $1.00 per
share. As of December 31, 1995 the Company sold $50,000 pursuant to the offering
and in the first quarter 1996 the remaining $150,000 was sold.

In May 1996,  the Company  offered all holders  of  the  Company's  units issued
pursuant  to the  Company's  private placement  memorandum dated March 25, 1994 
the opportunity to convert the Series AA Preferred Stock and Debentures 
constituting part of the units into restricted shares  of the  Company's  common
stock.  Each  Series AA  Preferred Stock and Debenture  converted into one share
of the Company's common stock at the reduced conversion  prices of $1.10.  The
total dollar amount converted from Series AA Preferred Stock and Debentures was 
$884,000 which converted into 803,636 shares of the Company's common stock. As 
additional consideration,  the Company reduced the  conversion  price for each 
Series AA Preferred Stock and Debenture issued pursuant to the Private Placement
Memorandum dated November 17, 1994 to $2.25. As additional consideration to the 
Company, the unit holders waived the past due interest and dividend payments
owed.

In August 1996, the Company  obtained a $500,000 loan from Gregory Orman, a non-
affiliated  party, the proceeds of which were  principally used to reduce  past 
due tax  obligations,  reduce accounts payable and enabled the Company to engage
its auditors. The loan bears interest at 12% and has $550,000 principal balance 
which was due November 1, 1996 and is in  default.  This  loan is  secured  with
a fourth  mortgage  on the Company's property and with certain of the Company's 
receivables.  In connection with the financing the Company  granted Orman 
warrants to acquire  260,000 shares of the Company's common stock at an exercise
price of $.70 per share.  On October 18, 1996,  Orman  agreed to  extend  the
maturity  date to  February  1,  1997.  In consideration  for the extension the
Company reduced  Orman's  exercise price on the warrants to acquire  260,000 
shares of the Company's  common stock from $.70 per share to $.22 per share. 
This loan is personally  guaranteed by Ms. Reynolds and Todd Fisher. This loan
is in default.

In February 1997, the Company obtained a  $1,100,000  loan  from  Galt  Capital,
an affiliate of Gregory Orman, a non-affiliated party, the proceeds of which 
were principally used to pay-off the TPM/Source second mortgage that was in 
default, reduce past due tax obligations, reduce accounts payable. The balance
was used to fund the Company's  operations.  The loan bears interest at 12% and
had $1,100,000  principal balance due June 5, 1997 and is in default.  This loan
is secured  pursuant to an assignment of TPM Holding, Inc. second Deed of Trust,
Loan Agreement and Promissory  Note dated December  1994 and is secured by a 
$573,000  first deed of trust placed  against real  property  owned by Selden  
Enterprises,  ("Selden"),  an  affiliate of Ms. Reynolds and Todd  Fisher.  In 
addition, Debbie Reynolds and Todd Fisher have personally guaranteed this loan. 
The Company will issue Selden 500,000 shares of itscommon stock as consideration
for allowing the deed of trust to be placed on its real property.  The Company
will also issue Ms. Reynolds 500,000 shares of its common stock in consideration
of her personal  guarantee and in recognition of numerous past  uncompensated
guarantees  provided by Ms. Reynolds as well as Ms. Reynolds' continued efforts 
on behalf of the Company. In connection with the financing  the  Company  has  
issued  a  warrant  to Galt  Capital  to  purchase approximately  2% of the 
Company's  outstanding  common  stock, as calculated pursuant to the agreement, 
at an exercise price of $.22 per share, the estimated fair market value,  which
expires February 5, 2000. This loan is in default.

In April 1997, the Company offered all remaining  holders of the Company's units
issued pursuant to the Company's private placement memorandum dated November 17,
1994 the  opportunity  to convert the Series AA Preferred  Stock and  Debentures
constituting  part of the units into restricted  shares of the Company's  common
stock. Each Series AA Preferred Stock and Debenture  converted into one share of
the Company's common stock at the reduced  conversion prices of $1.00. The total
dollar  amount  converted  from Series AA  Preferred  Stock and  Debentures  was
$261,528 which  converted into 261,528 shares of the Company's  common stock. As
additional  consideration  to the Company,  the unit holders waived the past due
interest and dividend payments owed.

As of March 1997, the Company is in default under the following  obligations:  
the Bennett Management & Development  ("BMD") mortgage is in default  due to
non-payment  of interest  and the holder has the right to  accelerate  the
mortgage  immediately  and make  demand on the entire outstanding  principal 
balance;  the BMD mortgage had a balance of approximately $2,115,000  plus 
accrued  interest  outstanding  at March 31, 1997;  the Bennett Funding 
International, Ltd. ("BFI") mortgage is in default due to non-payment of
interest and the holder has the right to accelerate the mortgage immediately and
make demand on the entire outstanding  principal balance; the BFI mortgage had a
principal balance of approximately  $2,865,000 plus accrued interest outstanding
at March 31, 1997;  the Gregory  Orman  ("Orman")  mortgage is in default due to
non-payment of interest and the note has matured and the holder has the right to
accelerate the mortgage  immediately  and make demand on the entire  outstanding
principal  balance;  the Orman mortgage had a principal balance of approximately
$550,000 plus accrued  interest  outstanding at March 31, 1997; the Galt Capital
("Galt")  mortgage is in default due to non-payment of interest and the note has
matured and the holder has the right to accelerate the mortgage  immediately and
make demand on the entire outstanding principal balance; the Galt mortgage had a
principal balance of approximately  $1,100,000 plus accrued interest outstanding
at March 31, 1997;  and the Company is in default on its unsecured  subordinated
debentures  due to  non-payment of monthly  interest,  and the  debentures  have
matured, the holders have the right to accelerate immediately and make demand on
the entire  outstanding  principal  balance.

On October  30,  1996 the  Company entered into an Agreement  for Purchase and 
Sale with ILX  Incorporated  ("ILX") under which ILX would purchase the Debbie
Reynolds Hotel & Casino (the "Hotel"), including  all of the  Hotel's  real  and
personal  property  and the Hotel's timeshare operations (the "ILX Agreement").
ILX is a publicly-held  corporation based in Phoenix,  Arizona which principally
owns, operates and markets resort properties in Arizona,  Florida, Indiana and
Mexico. On May 15, 1997 ILX elected to cancel  and  terminate  this  Agreement.
The  Company  and ILX  continue  to negotiate an alternative transaction.  There
is no guarantee that an alternative agreement will be reached.

The Company's recurring losses from operations,  its working capital deficiency,
its shareholders equity deficiency, its significant debt service  obligations
and its default  with  respect to various  agreements raise  substantial  doubt
about the  Company's ability to continue as a going concern.  The ability of the
Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on its ability to obtain 
additional  financing  to finance its working capital deficit until such time as
cash flows from  operations are sufficient to finance the Company's operations,
including the Company's proposed casino operations.

On July 3, 1997 the Company filed for relief under Chapter 11 of the  Bankruptcy
Code, due to the inability of the Company to generate  sufficient funds to cover
its  expenses and  obliagations.  The Company  will seek  reorganization  of its
debts. Also filing were subsidiary  companies Debbie Reynolds Management Company
and Debbie Reynolds Resorts, Inc. In addition, Miss Debbie Reynolds has resigned
as Chairman of the Board,  Director  and an Officer of Debbie  Reynolds  Hotel &
Casino,  Inc., Debbie Reynolds  Management  Company and Debbie Reynolds Resorts,
Inc.

The Company had a working  capital  deficiency of $14,610,000 at March 31, 1997,
compared with a working capital  deficiency of $10,059,000 at December 31, 1996,
an  increase  of  $4,551,000.  This  increase  is  attributable  to the  Company
continuing to incur  substantial  operating losses during the three months ended
March 31, 1997 and maturing long-term debt.

(3)  Revenues

Revenues for the quarter ended March 31, 1997 totaled $1,031,000  as compared to
$1,886,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 1996,  representing an 45.3% decrease
for 1997. This decrease is attributable, in large part, to the decrease in rooms
revenue of $309,000 as compared  to the  quarter  ended March 31, 1996 and the
decrease in timeshare revenue of $326,000 as compared to the quarter ended March
31, 1996.  The decrease in rooms revenue is attributed to increased  competition
in the Las Vegas  market.  The decrease in timeshare  revenue is  attributed to
the Company restructuring  its  timeshare  division and  currently  is not 
actively  selling timeshare  units.

The loss from  operations for the quarter ended March 31, 1997 totaled  $870,000
as compared to a $1,099,000  loss from  operations  for the first  quarter ended
1996.  Included in the loss from operations was $57,000 loss from the restaurant
operations. The net loss for the quarter ended March 31, 1997 totaled $1,288,000
as compared to $1,437,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 1996.

(4) Interest  Expense

Interest  expense increased from $338,000 for the three  months  ended March 31,
1996 to $418,000 for three months ended March 31, 1997 due to additional debt
which was incurred and the increased  interest rates associated  the  with  new
loans  and the  loans in  default.

filed  against the Company by certain of its  vendors and other  creditors.  The
Company  believes that these  lawsuits may be satisfied  through  payment of the
indebtedness to the extent the Company's cash flow permits.
