NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
Isle of Capri Casinos, Inc., (the "Company" or "Isle of Capri"), formerly
known as Casino America, Inc., was incorporated as a Delaware corporation on
February 14, 1990 and changed its name to Isle of Capri Casinos, Inc. on October
1, 1998. The Company, through its subsidiaries, is engaged in the business of
developing, owning and operating riverboat, dockside and land-based casinos and
related facilities. The Company has licenses to conduct and currently conducts
gaming operations in Biloxi, Vicksburg and Tunica, Mississippi, in Bossier City
and Lake Charles, Louisiana, and in Black Hawk, Colorado through its
subsidiaries.
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information and with 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 adjustments, for the three and six month periods ended
October 24, 1999 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be
expected for the fiscal year ending April 30, 2000. 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 fiscal year ended April 25,
1999.
The consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts
of Isle of Capri Casinos, Inc. and its subsidiaries. All material intercompany
balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles necessarily requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements as well as revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual
amounts when ultimately realized could differ from those estimates.
Earnings per Common Share
The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per
share:

2. Property and Equipment
Property and equipment is recorded at cost. Depreciation is computed using
the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
Years
-------
<S> <C>
Slot Machines. . . . . . . . . . . 3
Furniture, fixtures, and equipment 5-10
Leasehold improvements . . . . . . 10-39.5
Riverboats and floating pavilions. 25
Buildings and improvements . . . . 39.5
</TABLE>
Effective April 26, 1999, Isle of Capri increased its estimate of the
useful lives of all land-based buildings and improvements from 25 years to 39.5
years to more appropriately reflect the expected useful lives of those assets.
Isle of Capri also reduced its estimate of the useful lives of slot machines
from 5 years to 3 years due to technological changes. These two changes
decreased net income for the three months ended October 24, 1999 by $339,000,
and decreased both earnings per basic share and earnings per diluted share by
$0.01. For the six months ended October 24, 1999, these two changes increased
net income by $199,000, and increased both earnings per basic share and earnings
per diluted share by $0.01. Excluding the changes in useful lives, net income,
earnings per basic share, and earnings per diluted share would have been
$6,293,000, $0.27, and $0.25, respectively, for the three months ended October
24, 1999. For the six months ended October 24, 1999, net income, earnings per
basic share and earnings per diluted share would have been $13,359,000, $0.57,
and $0.54, respectively, excluding the changes in useful lives.
3. Other Assets
Licenses and other intangible assets
Licenses and other intangible assets principally represent the license
value attributed to the Louisiana gaming licenses acquired through the Company's
acquisition of St. Charles Gaming Company, Inc. ("SCGC"), Grand Palais
Riverboat, Inc. ("GPRI") and Louisiana Riverboat Gaming Partnership ("LRGP").
These assets are being amortized over a twenty-five-year period using the
straight-line method.
Goodwill
Goodwill reflects the excess purchase price the Company paid in
acquiring the net identifiable tangible and intangible assets of SCGC, GPRI and
LRGP. Goodwill is being amortized over a twenty-five-year period using the
straight-line method.
Restricted cash
Restricted cash represents cash proceeds from the 13% First Mortgage Notes
due 2004 with Contingent Interest issued by Isle of Capri Black Hawk, L.L.C.
("Isle-Black Hawk") (the "First Mortgage Notes") held in trust by The Bank of
New York, as trustee for Isle-Black Hawk, a majority-owned subsidiary of the
Company. These funds are held in three separate accounts (Construction
Disbursement, Completion Reserve and Interest Reserve) with usage restricted by
an indenture between Isle-Black Hawk and the trustee, dated August 20, 1997
governing the First Mortgage Notes (the "Indenture"). The amount remaining in
the Construction Disbursement and Completion Reserve accounts as of October 24,
1999, equaled approximately $0.6 million. In addition, the Company has other
restricted cash totaling $3.2 million related to various operating deposits.
4. Isle of Capri Black Hawk, L.L.C.
On April 25, 1997, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, Casino America
of Colorado, formed Isle-Black Hawk, a limited liability company, with Blackhawk
Gold, Ltd., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Nevada Gold & Casinos, Inc. Isle-Black
Hawk owns a casino in Black Hawk, Colorado, which opened on December 30, 1998.
Isle-Black Hawk has begun to construct a hotel containing approximately 235
rooms at the site of the Isle-Black Hawk. The Company has a 57% ownership
interest in Isle-Black Hawk. As a consolidated subsidiary of the Company, the
operating results of Isle-Black Hawk are reflected in the consolidated results
of the Company. Prior to December 30, 1998, Isle-Black Hawk was a Development
Stage Company.

invested $3.0 million into this 50/50 unconsolidated joint venture, which is
operating one cruise ship from the Port of New Orleans.

6. Acquisitions
Isle of Capri - Tunica
----------------------
In March 1999, the Company acquired the original Harrah's casino facility
located in Tunica County, Mississippi for $9.5 million. The Company invested an
additional $24.0 million to equip, renovate and open this facility as an Isle of
Capri casino. The Company opened the Isle-Tunica on July 26, 1999 with
approximately 875 slot machines, 15 table games and its two trademark
restaurants. The Company also plans to invest approximately $40.0 million more
to construct an on-site hotel with up to 250 rooms and two live entertainment
theaters with combined seating for 2,000 people. Construction of the hotel is
currently underway and construction of the theaters is scheduled to begin during
the first half of 2000.
Lady Luck Gaming Corporation
----------------------------
In October 1999, the Company entered into a definitive agreement under
which the Company would acquire Lady Luck Gaming Corporation ("Lady Luck") in a
merger transaction. Under the terms of the agreement, Lady Luck's common
stockholders will receive cash in the amount of $12.00 per share for an
aggregate share consideration of approximately $59 million and the Company will
assume all of Lady Luck's outstanding debt in the amount of approximately $177
million. The agreement also provides for the redemption of Lady Luck's
outstanding preferred stock in the amount of approximately $22 million. Closing
is expected in the first half of 2000 pending the approval of Lady Luck's
stockholders and gaming regulators and other contingencies. Andrew Tompkins,
the owner of approximately 46% of Lady Luck's common stock, has agreed to vote
in favor of the transaction. Lady Luck operates dockside riverboat casinos and
hotels in Coahoma and Natchez, Mississippi; owns a 50% interest in the Lady Luck
Casino and Hotel in Bettendorf, Iowa; and on October 29, 1999, acquired the Miss
Marquette Casino in Marquette, Iowa for $41.7 million. The Company made a
secured loan of approximately $21.0 million to Lady Luck in order to assist Lady
Luck in consummating the Miss Marquette acquisition. Lady Luck also has
agreements to acquire the Lady Luck Casino & Hotel in downtown Las Vegas and
certain intellectual property for $45.5 million. The Company expects to
complete the acquisition of the intellectual property contemporaneously with the
merger and to complete the acquisition of the Las Vegas casino and hotel upon
receipt of regulation approval in Nevada.
BRDC, Inc.
----------
In October 1999, the Company entered into a letter of intent with BRDC,
Inc. ("BRDC") to acquire a 50% interest in Lady Luck's Bettendorf, Iowa facility
that is not owned by Lady Luck and related real estate in exchange for
approximately 6.3 million shares of the Company's common stock, subject to
adjustment in certain circumstances. BRDC is owned by members of the family of
Bernard Goldstein, the Company's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, including
Robert Goldstein, a member of the Company's board of directors. This
transaction is contingent on execution of a definitive agreement, the completion
of the Company's acquisition of Lady Luck, the approval of the Company's
shareholders and regulatory approval in Iowa. The sellers have the option to
receive up to $10 million of their consideration in cash rather than the
Company's common stock. The Company expects to complete the BRDC acquisition
contemporaneously with the merger.

</TABLE>
On April 23, 1999, the Company issued $390,000,000 of 8 3/4 % Senior
Subordinated Notes due 2009 (the "Senior Subordinated Notes"). The Senior
Subordinated Notes are guaranteed by all of the Company's significant
subsidiaries, excluding the subsidiaries that own and operate the Isle-Black
Hawk. Interest on the Senior Subordinated Notes is payable semi-annually on
each April 15 and October 15 through maturity. The Senior Subordinated Notes
are redeemable, in whole or in part, at the Company's option at any time on or
after April 15, 2004 at the redemption prices (expressed as percentages of
principal amount) set forth below plus accrued and unpaid interest to the
applicable redemption date, if redeemed during the 12-month period beginning on
April 15 of the years indicated below:

2007 and thereafter 100.000%
</TABLE>
The Company issued the Senior Subordinated Notes under an indenture between
the Company, the subsidiary guarantors and a trustee. The indenture, among
other things, restricts the ability of the Company and its restricted
subsidiaries to borrow money, make restricted payments, use assets as security
in other transactions, enter into transactions with affiliates, or pay dividends
on or repurchase its stock or its restricted subsidiaries' stock. The Company is
also restricted in its ability to issue and sell capital stock of its
subsidiaries and in its ability to sell assets in excess of specified amounts or
merge with or into other companies.
A substantial part of the proceeds from the Senior Subordinated Notes was
used to prepay long-term debt, including all of the $315,000,000 of 12 1/2 %
Senior Secured Notes due 2003. The proceeds were also used to pay prepayment
Premiums, accrued interest and other transaction fees and costs.
Simultaneously with the issuance of the Senior Subordinated Notes, the
Company entered into a $175.0 million five-year Senior Credit Facility (the
"Senior Credit Facility") comprised of a $50.0 million term loan and a $125.0
million revolver, which had no draws against it as of October 24, 1999. The
Senior Credit Facility is secured by liens on substantially all of the Company's
assets and guaranteed by all of its significant restricted subsidiaries,
excluding Casino America of Colorado, Inc., Isle-Black Hawk, and their
subsidiaries. The Company used the initial borrowings under the Senior Credit
Facility to repay certain existing debt and for working capital and for other
general corporate purposes. The Company plans to use future borrowings under
the Senior Credit Facility primarily for expansion of its existing casino
facilities and the development of new casino facilities.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
On August 20, 1997, Isle-Black Hawk issued $75 million of 13% First
Mortgage Notes due 2004 with Contingent Interest, which is non-recourse debt to
the Company. Interest on the First Mortgage Notes is payable semi-annually on
February 28 and August 31 of each year, commencing February 28, 1998.
Additionally, contingent interest is payable on the First Mortgage Notes on each
interest payment date, in an aggregate principal amount of 5% of the
Consolidated Cash Flow (as defined in the Indenture governing the First Mortgage
Notes). The First Mortgage Notes are redeemable at the option of Isle-Black
Hawk, in whole or in part, at any time on or after August 1, 2001 at the
redemption prices (expressed as percentages of principal amount) set forth below
plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date, if redeemed during the
12-month period beginning on August 31 of the years indicated below:

2002. . . . . . . . 103.200%
2003 and thereafter 100.000%
</TABLE>
Beginning with the first operating year after the Isle-Black Hawk begins gaming
operations, Isle-Black Hawk will be required to offer to purchase, at the price
of 101% of the aggregate principal amount thereof, the maximum principal amount
of the First Mortgage Notes that may be purchased with 50% of the Isle-Black
Hawk's excess cash flow, as defined.
On August 31, 1999, Isle-Black Hawk deferred its first contingent interest
payment totaling $516,000. This amount was fully accrued as of August 31, 1999.
The amount of contingent interest expense recorded for the three and six months
ended October 24, 1999 was $248,000 and $466,000, respectively.
Isle of Capri has $4.5 million available in bank lines of credit other than
the Senior Credit Facility. As of October 24, 1999, Isle of Capri had no
outstanding balances under these lines of credit.
Isle-Black Hawk obtained a letter of credit as a requirement to obtain a
building permit from the City of Black Hawk (the "City"). The letter of credit,
totaling $2.1 million, can be drawn upon by the City if for any reasons
Isle-Black Hawk fails to complete the hotel project. The letter of credit is
secured by a deposit held in trust of $1.1 million, which was funded by Isle of
Capri, and the balance is secured by Isle of Capri's open line of credit with
the bank.
Substantially all of Isle of Capri's assets are pledged as collateral for
long-term debt under the Senior Credit Facility. At October 24, 1999, Isle of
Capri was in compliance with all debt covenants.
8. Contingencies
One of the Company's subsidiaries has been named, along with numerous
manufacturers, distributors and gaming operators, including many of the
country's largest gaming operators, in a consolidated class action lawsuit
pending in Las Vegas, Nevada. These gaming industry defendants are alleged to
have violated the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act by engaging
in a course of fraudulent and misleading conduct intended to induce people to
play their gaming machines based upon a false belief concerning how those gaming
machines actually operate and the extent to which there is actually an
opportunity to win on any given play. The suit seeks unspecified compensatory
and punitive damages. A motion for certification of the class is currently
pending before the court and no discovery as to the merits of the alleged claims
has begun. The Company is unable at this time to determine what effect, if any,
the suit would have on its financial position or results of operations. However,
the gaming industry defendants are committed to defend vigorously all claims
asserted in the consolidated action.
In February 1998, the Isle-Vicksburg was named as a defendant in an action
brought by an individual who owns property adjacent to the Big Black River in
the eastern part of Warren County, Mississippi and several other parties. Also
named as defendants in the action are two other operators in the Vicksburg
market and one of the largest banks in the State of Mississippi. The amended
complaint alleged that the defendants entered into an agreement to conduct a
campaign opposing a gaming application for a site next to property owned by the
plaintiffs. The plaintiffs alleged that because of this agreement trade was
improperly restrained and competition in the gaming business was reduced. The
plaintiffs further alleged that the defendants conspired for the purpose of
injuring the plaintiffs' property rights. The Company denies any liability;
however, in order to avoid the cost of litigation and the risk of an adverse
judgement, the Company settled this suit, without admitting liability, on
October 13, 1999.
In May 1998, the Company was named as a defendant in an action brought by
several persons who had a contractual right to acquire property in Cripple
Creek, Colorado which they sold to one of the Company's subsidiaries in 1995.
The plaintiffs allege that the Company breached its purported agreement to
construct a casino facility on the property by the end of 1995. In December
1998, the Company's motion to dismiss the complaint was granted by the United
States District Court in Denver, Colorado. The plaintiffs have appealed this
decision to the Tenth Circuit Court of Appeals. The Company intends to
vigorously defend all claims and allegations in the action.

In August 1997, a lawsuit was filed which seeks to nullify a contract to
which Louisiana Riverboat Gaming Partnership is a party. Pursuant to the
contract, Louisiana Riverboat Gaming Partnership pays a fixed amount plus a
percentage of revenue to various local governmental entities, including the City
of Bossier and the Bossier Parish School Board, in lieu of payment of a
per-passenger boarding fee. Summary judgment in favor of Louisiana Riverboat
Gaming Partnership was granted on June 4, 1998. That judgment was not appealed
and is now final. On June 11, 1998, a similar suit was filed and is currently
pending. The Company intends to vigorously defend this suit.
The Company is engaged in various other litigation matters and has a number
of unresolved claims. Although the ultimate liability of this litigation and
these claims cannot be determined at this time, the Company believes that they
will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial
position or results of operations.
9. Preopening Expenses
Preopening expenses of $3.4 million represent salaries, benefits, training,
marketing and other costs incurred in connection with the opening of the
Isle-Tunica on July 26, 1999.
10. Subsequent Events
On November 20, 1999, voters in Calcasieu Parish passed a referendum which
allows up to 15,000 square feet of gaming space in which slot machines could be
operated at Delta Downs, a horse racing facility located approximately 25 miles
west of the Isle of Capri - Lake Charles. Prior to commencing operations of
slot machines at Delta Downs, the Louisiana Legislature must pass legislation
assessing a tax on those operations. In addition, Delta Downs and its owners
must be found suitable and licensed by the Gaming Control Board.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
You should read the following discussion together with the financial
statements, including the related notes, the other financial information in this
report.
The following discussion includes "forward-looking statements" within the
meaning of section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section
21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. In particular,
statements concerning the effects of increased competition in the Company's
markets, the effects of regulatory and legislative matters, the Company's plans
to make capital investments at its facilities, including, without limitation,
considerations to acquire Lady Luck Gaming Corporation and other related assets
and to develop hotels or time-share facilities at the Isle-Biloxi, the Isle-Lake
Charles, the Isle-Black Hawk, and the Isle-Tunica and the expansion of
non-gaming amenities at all facilities, are forward-looking statements.
Although the Company believes that the expectations are reasonable, there can be
no assurance that such expectations are reasonable or that they will be correct.
Actual results may vary materially from those expected. Important factors that
could cause actual results to differ with respect to the Company's planned
capital expenditures principally include a lack of available capital resources,
construction and development risks such as shortages of materials or labor and
unforeseen delays resulting from a failure to obtain necessary approvals.
General
Isle of Capri's results of operations for the six fiscal months ended
October 24, 1999 reflect the consolidated operations of all of Isle of Capri's
subsidiaries, including the Isle-Lake Charles, the Isle-Bossier City, the
Isle-Biloxi, the Isle-Vicksburg, the Isle-Tunica and the Isle-Black Hawk.
Isle of Capri believes that its historical results of operations may not be
indicative of its future results of operations because of the substantial
present and expected future increase in competition for gaming customers in each
of Isle of Capri's markets, as new casinos open and existing casinos add to or
enhance their facilities.
Isle of Capri also believes that its operating results are affected by
seasonality. Seasonality has historically caused the operating results for Isle
of Capri's first and fourth fiscal quarters ending in July and April,
respectively, to be notably better than the operating results for the second and
third fiscal quarters ending October and January, respectively.
Results of Operations
Three Fiscal Months Ended October 24, 1999 Compared to Three Fiscal Months Ended
October 25, 1998 - Consolidated Company
Total revenue for the quarter ended October 24, 1999 was $155.0 million,
which included $141.5 million of casino revenue, $2.8 million of room revenue,
$3.6 million of pari-mutuel commissions and $7.1 million of food, beverage and
other revenue. This compares to total revenue for the previous quarter ended
October 25, 1998 of $106.9 million, which included $95.2 million of casino
revenue, $2.7 million of room revenue, $3.6 million of pari-mutuel commissions
and $5.4 million of food, beverage and other revenue. Casino revenue increased
primarily as a result of the commencement of operations at the Isle-Black Hawk
on December 30, 1998 and the Isle-Tunica on July 26, 1999, increased market
share at the Isle-Lake Charles, and the effects of opening a 124-room hotel at
the Isle-Vicksburg and a 305-room hotel at the Isle-Bossier City. Room revenue
increased only slightly despite the opening of new hotel rooms at the
Isle-Vicksburg and the Isle-Bossier City due to increased complimentary room
nights given to the Company's more active data base customers. Food, beverage
and other revenue has increased as a result of the opening of the Isle-Black
Hawk and the Isle-Tunica; and the new hotel rooms at the Isle-Vicksburg and the
Isle-Bossier City. Pari-mutuel commissions and fees remained level compared to
the prior year. Revenue does not reflect the retail value of any
complimentaries.
Casino operating expenses for the quarter ended October 24, 1999 totaled
$27.2 million, or 19.3% of casino revenue, versus $17.9 million, or 18.9% of
casino revenue, for the quarter ended October 25, 1998. These expenses are
primarily comprised of salaries, wages and benefits and other operating expenses
of the casinos. Casino operating expenses as a percentage of casino revenue have
increased slightly primarily as a result of startup costs associated with the
opening of the Isle-Tunica.
Operating expenses for the quarter ended October 24, 1999 also included
room expenses of $1.3 million from the hotels at the Isle-Lake Charles, the
Isle-Bossier City, the Isle-Biloxi and the Isle-Vicksburg compared to $1.0
million for the quarter ended October 25, 1998. These expenses are those
directly relating to the cost of providing hotel rooms. Other costs of the
hotels are shared with the casinos and are presented in their respective expense
categories. Room expenses increased primarily as a result of the opening of the
Isle-Vicksburg hotel in February 1999 and the opening of the new 305-room deluxe
Isle-Bossier City hotel in late June 1999.
<PAGE>
State and local gaming taxes paid in Louisiana, Mississippi and Colorado
totaled $27.9 million for the quarter ended October 24, 1999, compared to $19.7
million for the quarter ended October 25, 1998, which is consistent with each
state's gaming tax rate for the applicable fiscal years.
Food, beverage and other expenses totaled $4.2 million for the quarter
ended October 24, 1999, compared to $3.3 million for the quarter ended
October 25, 1998. These expenses have increased as a result of the opening of
the Isle-Black Hawk and the Isle-Tunica. These expenses consist primarily of
the cost of goods sold, salaries, wages and benefits and operating expenses of
these departments. Food and beverage operating expenses as a percentage of
food, beverage and other revenues decreased from 61.1% for the quarter ending
October 25, 1998 to 60.0% for the quarter ended October 24, 1999. Food and
beverage operating margins have improved as a result of continued payroll
and inventory cost control efforts
Marine and facilities expenses totaled $9.6 million for the quarter ended
October 24, 1999, versus $6.5 million for the quarter ended October 25, 1998.
These expenses include salaries, wages and benefits, operating expenses of the
marine crews, insurance, housekeeping and general maintenance of the riverboats
and floating pavilions. Marine and facilities expenses have increased due to the
opening of the Isle-Black Hawk, the Isle-Tunica and the new hotels at the
Isle-Vicksburg and the Isle-Bossier City.
Marketing and administrative expenses totaled $49.1 million, or 31.7% of
total revenue, for the quarter ended October 24, 1999, versus $32.6 million,
or 30.5% of total revenue, for the quarter ended October 25, 1998. Marketing
expenses include salaries, wages and benefits of the marketing and sales
departments, as well as promotions, advertising, special events and
entertainment. Administrative expenses include administration and human
resource department expenses, rent, new development activities, professional
fees and property taxes. Marketing and administrative expenses have increased
due primarily to the opening of the Isle-Black Hawk, the Isle-Tunica and the
new hotel at the Isle-Vicksburg and the Isle-Bossier City. These expenses as
a percentage of total revenue increased slightly as a result of start up
marketing efforts at the Isle-Tunica and increased marketing efforts at the
Isle-Biloxi.
Depreciation and amortization expense was $9.1 million for the quarter
ended October 24, 1999 and $8.5 million for the quarter ended October 25, 1998.
Theses expenses relate to property and equipment, berthing and concession rights
and the amortization of intangible assets. These expenses include depreciation
and amortization expense related to assets placed into service since the quarter
ended October 25, 1998, including the Isle-Black Hawk, the Isle-Tunica and the
new hotels at the Isle-Vicksburg and Isle-Bossier City. Effective April 26,
1999, the first day of fiscal year 2000, the Company changed the estimated
useful lives used for depreciating its slot machines and land-based buildings,
from five years to three years and from twenty-five years to thirty-nine and
one-half years, respectively. The change in estimated useful lives was
implemented to more accurately reflect actual expected useful lives of those
assets based on recent historical data.
Interest expense was $12.6 million for the quarter ended October 24, 1999,
net of capitalized interest of $0.2 million and interest income of $0.8 million,
versus $10.8 million for the six months ended October 25, 1998, net of
capitalized interest of $2.5 million and interest income of $0.6 million.
Interest expense primarily relates to indebtedness incurred in connection with
the acquisition of property, equipment, leasehold improvements and berthing and
concession rights. Additionally, interest expense of $2.5 million, net of
capitalized interest of $0.1 million and interest income of $0.1 million related
to Black Hawk LLC is included in the quarter ended July 25, 1999. This compares
to interest expense of $0.4 million, net of capitalized interest of $2.1 million
and interest income of $0.1 million, for the quarter ended October 25, 1998.
Isle of Capri's effective tax rate was 39.9% for the quarter ended October
24, 1999 and 48.5% for the quarter ended October 25, 1998, which includes the
effects of non-deductible goodwill amortization for income tax purposes.

ended October 25, 1998. The increase in revenue, operating income and operating
income margin is related primarily to increased market share.

revenue of $37.8 million, of which $35.7 million was casino revenue, compared to
total revenue of $29.9 million, of which $28.5 million was casino revenue, for

22.1% of total revenue, compared to $5.8 million, or 19.3% of total revenue, for

of $21.8 million, of which $19.1 million was casino revenue, compared to total
revenue of $22.1 million, of which $18.7 million was casino revenue, for the

the prior year first quarter primarily due to increased competition from the
opening of a new competitor and expansion of existing competitors in the Biloxi
market. Operating income for the quarter ended October 24, 1999 totaled $4.4
million, or 20.2% of total revenue, compared to $4.8 million, or 21.7% of total
revenue, for the quarter ended October 25, 1998. The decrease in operating

revenue of $15.4 million, of which $14.3 million was casino revenue, compared to

25.4% of total revenue, compared to $2.1 million, or 17.2% of total revenue, for

of $9.8 million, of which $9.4 million was casino revenue. The Isle-Tunica
incurred an operating loss for the quarter of $1.5 million, or 14.9% of total
revenue, due to high operating costs associated with initial start up efforts.
The Isle-Tunica began operations on July 26, 1999 and thus has no comparable
operating results for the quarter ending October 25, 1998.

increased market share at the Isle-Lake Charles, and the effects of opening a
124-room hotel at the Isle-Vicksburg and a 305-room hotel at the Isle-Bossier
City. Room revenue decreased due to increased complimentary room nights given
to the Company's more active data base customers. Food, beverage and other
revenue has increased as a result of the opening of the Isle-Black Hawk and the
Isle-Tunica and the new hotel rooms at the Isle-Vicksburg and the Isle-Bossier

compares to interest expense of $1.2 million, net of capitalized interest of
$3.2 million and interest income of $0.5 million, for the six months ended
October 25, 1998.
Isle of Capri's effective tax rate was 43.5% for the six months ended
October 24, 1999 and 49.2% for the quarter ended October 25, 1998, which
includes the effects of non-deductible goodwill amortization for income
tax purposes.
Six Fiscal Months Ended October 24, 1999 Compared to Six Fiscal Months Ended
October 25, 1998-By Casino Location
Isle-Lake Charles
For the six months ended October 24, 1999, the Isle-Lake Charles had total
revenue of $88.4 million, of which $85.4 million was casino revenue, compared to
total revenue of $77.8 million, of which $73.9 million was casino revenue, for
the six months ended October 25, 1998. Operating income for the six months ended
October 24, 1999 totaled $16.5 million, or 18.7% of total revenue, compared to
operating income of $13.3 million, or 17.1% of total revenue, for the six months
ended October 25, 1998. The increase in revenue, operating income and operating
income margin is related primarily to increased market share which has resulted
partially from construction disruption at a nearby competitor and partially from
the increased use of the Isle-Lake Charles' player database and entertainment
center.
<PAGE>
Isle-Bossier City
For the six months ended October 24, 1999, the Isle-Bossier City had total
revenue of $70.5 million, of which $67.0 million was casino revenue, compared to
total revenue of $61.7 million, of which $58.8 million was casino revenue, for
the six months ended October 25, 1998. The increase in revenue relates primarily
to the opening of a new 305-room hotel at the Isle-Bossier City in late June
1999. Operating income for the six months ended October 24, 1999, totaled $15.6
million, or 22.1% of total revenue, compared to $12.6 million, or 20.4% of total
revenue, for the six months ended October 25, 1998. The increase in operating
income and operating income margin is primarily a result of the opening of the
new 305-room hotel.
Isle-Biloxi
For the six months ended October 24, 1999, the Isle-Biloxi had total
revenue of $45.2 million, of which $39.2 million was casino revenue, compared to
total revenue of $46.6 million, of which $38.9 million was casino revenue, for
the six months ended October 25, 1998. Total revenue decreased slightly
compared to the prior year first quarter primarily due to increased competition
from the opening of a new competitor and expansion of existing competitors in
the Biloxi market. Operating income for the six months ended October 24, 1999
totaled $9.4 million, or 20.8% of total revenue, compared to $9.6 million, or
20.6% of total revenue, for the six months ended October 25, 1998.
Isle-Vicksburg
For the six months ended October 24, 1999, the Isle-Vicksburg had total
revenue of $31.2 million, of which $29.0 million was casino revenue, compared to
total revenue of $25.3 million, of which $24.0 million was casino revenue, for
the six months ended October 25, 1998. Casino revenues and total revenues
increased due to the opening of a 124-room hotel at the Isle-Vicksburg in
February 1999. Operating income for the six months ended October 24, 1999,
totaled $7.9 million, or 25.4% of total revenue, compared to $4.9 million,
or 19.3% of total revenue, for the six months ended October 25, 1998. The
increase in operating income and operating income margin is due primarily
to the opening of the Isle-Vicksburg's new hotel.
Isle-Black Hawk
For the six months ended October 24, 1999, the Isle-Black Hawk had total
revenue of $42.0 million, of which $39.7 million was casino revenue. Operating
income for the six months ended October 24, 1999, totaled $9.8 million, or 23.4%
of total revenue. The Isle-Black Hawk began operations on December 30, 1998 and
thus has no comparable operating results for the six months ending October 25,
1998.
Isle-Tunica
For the six months ended October 24, 1999, the Isle-Tunica had total
revenue of $9.8 million, of which $9.4 million was casino revenue. The
Isle-Tunica incurred an operating loss for the six months ended October 24,
1999, that totaled $1.5 million, or 14.9% of total revenue, due to high
operating costs associated with initial start up efforts. The Isle-Tunica began
operations on July 26, 1999, and thus has no comparable operating results for
the six months ending October 25, 1998.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At October 24, 1999, Isle of Capri had cash and cash equivalents of $88.8
million, compared to $85.1 million at April 25, 1999. The increase in cash is
primarily a result of cash flow from operating activities. During the six months
ended October 24, 1999, Isle of Capri's operating activities provided $43.9
million of cash, compared to $35.3 million of cash provided by operating
activities in the quarter ended October 25, 1998. The increase in cash from
operating activities was primarily due to increased revenues generated from the
openings of the Isle-Black Hawk, the Isle-Tunica and the new hotels at the
Isle-Vicksburg and the Isle-Bossier City.
Isle of Capri invested $40.5 million in property and equipment in the six
months ended October 24, 1999, primarily for the development of the Isle-Tunica,
the development of a 305-room deluxe hotel at the Isle-Bossier City and the
development of a 235-room hotel at the Isle-Black Hawk.
<PAGE>
In October 1999, Isle of Capri entered into a definitive agreement to
acquire Lady Luck in a merger transaction. Under the terms of the agreement,
Lady Luck's common stockholders will receive cash in the amount of $12 per
share for an aggregate share consideration of approximately $59 million and
Isle of Capri will assume all of Lady Luck's outstanding debt in the amount of
approximately $177 million. The agreement also provides for the redemption of
Lady Luck's outstanding preferred stock in the amount of approximately $22
million. Closing is expected in the first half of 2000 pending the approval
of Lady Luck's stockholders and gaming regulators and other contingencies.
Subsequent to this agreement Lady Luck completed its acquisition of the Miss
Marquette Casino in Marquette, Iowa for $41.7 million, for which Isle of
Capri provided financing to Lady Luck in the amount of approximately $21
million. Additionally, Lady Luck had entered into an agreement to acquire
the Lady Luck Casino and Hotel in downtown Las Vegas and certain other
intellectual property for $45.5 million. The Company will fund the
acquisition of Lady Luck through an amendment to its existing Senior
Credit Facility, and has received a commitment (the "Commitment") to amend
its Senior Credit Facility in connection with the acquisition.
In conjunction with the Lady Luck acquisition discussed above, Isle
of Capri has entered into a letter of intent to acquire the other 50%
interest in Lady Luck's Bettendorf, Iowa facility not owned by Lady Luck
and related real estate in exchange for approximately 6.3 million shares
of Isle of Capri common stock, subject to adjustment in certain
circumstances. This interest is owned by members of the family of Bernard
Goldstein, Isle of Capri's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, including
Robert Goldstein, a member of the Company's board of directors. This
transaction is contingent upon the completion of Isle of Capri's acquisition
of Lady Luck, the approval of Isle of Capri shareholders and other
contingencies. The sellers have the option to receive up to $10 million of
their consideration in cash rather than Isle of Capri common stock.
Isle of Capri anticipates that a significant portion of its principal
near-term capital requirements will relate to the expansion of the Isle-Tunica,
the Isle-Lake Charles, the Isle-Black Hawk and the Isle-Biloxi. Isle of Capri
plans to invest an additional amount of approximately $40.0 million to construct
an on-site hotel at the Isle-Tunica with up to 250 rooms and two live
entertainment theaters with combined seating for 2,000 people. The site work
necessary for the construction of the hotel and theaters has begun. Isle of
Capri has also recently begun construction of an on-site 250-room deluxe hotel
at the Isle-Lake Charles, with an estimated cost of approximately $33.0
million. Additionally, the Isle-Black Hawk is continuing the construction
of a hotel containing approximately 235 rooms at the Isle-Black Hawk for
approximately $29.0 million. Isle of Capri is assisting Isle-Black Hawk with
the financing of the development of this hotel and plans to loan $5.0 million
with interest payable in cash and another $5.0 million with interest payable
in kind (with additional notes). Additionally, Isle of Capri has agreed to
contribute up to $10.0 million in additional equity to supplement funds
generated from Isle-Black Hawk operations to complete the hotel.
Subject to certain regulatory approvals, Isle of Capri plans to replace
its existing casino at the Isle-Biloxi and construct an approximately
1,000-space parking garage and a podium containing entertainment and retail
space. Isle of Capri estimates that the total cost of this expansion will be
approximately $62.0 million. The podium will be constructed to support
either a time-share facility, which may be developed by a joint venture,
or additional hotel rooms. Isle of Capri has not entered into, and cannot
be sure that it will be able to enter into, an agreement for development of
the time-share facility.
Isle of Capri has applied to the Missouri Gaming Commission for approval
to develop and operate a riverboat casino in St. Louis County, Missouri. If
Isle of Capri is successful in obtaining this approval, it intends to begin
construction of the facility as soon as possible. The Company intends to fund
the development through an amendment to its existing Senior Credit Facility.
Isle of Capri has applied for a license from the Louisiana Gaming
Commission to develop and operate a riverboat casino in St. Bernard Parish,
Louisiana. If Isle of Capri is successful in obtaining this license, it intends
to begin construction as soon as possible. The Company intends to fund the
development through an amendment to its existing Senior Credit Facility.
In June 1999, PPI, Inc. sold its option to purchase 135 acres of property,
adjacent to its Pompano Park Harness Racing Track, for $16.3 million. The sale
resulted in a gain on disposal of approximately $3.1 million.
All of Isle of Capri's development plans are subject to obtaining permits,
licenses and approvals from appropriate regulatory and other agencies and, in
certain circumstances, negotiating acceptable leases. In addition, many of its
plans are preliminary, subject to continuing refinement or otherwise subject to
change.
Isle of Capri anticipates that capital improvements approximating $18.9
million will be made during fiscal 2000 (approximately $6.6 million of which
have been made as of the end of the second quarter) to maintain its existing
facilities and remain competitive in its markets. Isle of Capri expects that
available cash and cash from future operations, as well as borrowings under
its Senior Credit Facility, will be adequate to fund future expansion, planned
capital expenditures, service debt and meet working capital requirements.
There is no assurance that Isle of Capri will have the capital resources to
make all of the expenditures described above or that planned capital investments
will be sufficient to allow Isle of Capri to remain competitive in its existing
markets. In addition, the indenture governing the 8 3/4 % Senior Subordinated
Notes restricts, among other things, Isle of Capri's ability to borrow money,
create liens, make restricted payments and sell assets.
<PAGE>
Isle of Capri's Senior Credit Facility limits, among other things, Isle
of Capri's ability to borrow money, make capital expenditures, use assets as
security in other transactions, make restricted payments or restricted
investments, incur contingent obligations, sell assets and enter into leases
and transactions with affiliates. In addition, the Senior Credit Facility
requires Isle of Capri to meet certain financial ratios and tests, including:
a minimum consolidated net worth test, a maximum consolidated total leverage
test, a maximum consolidated senior leverage test and a minimum consolidated
fixed charge coverage test.
Isle of Capri must repay all amounts borrowed under its Senior Credit
Facility by July 23, 2004. Isle of Capri will be required to make quarterly
principal payments on the $50.0 million term loan portion of its Senior Credit
Facility beginning in July 1999. Such payments will initially be $0.8 million
per quarter and will increase by $0.8 million per quarter in July of each year
that the term loan is outstanding. In addition, Isle of Capri will be required
to make substantial quarterly interest payments on the outstanding balance of
its Senior Credit Facility and interest payments of $17.1 million semi-annually
on its 8 3/4 % Senior Subordinated Notes.
Isle of Capri is highly leveraged and may be unable to obtain additional
debt or equity financing on acceptable terms. As a result, limitations on Isle
of Capri's capital resources could delay or cause Isle of Capri to abandon
certain plans for capital improvements at its existing properties and
development of new properties. Isle of Capri will continue to evaluate its
planned capital expenditures at each of its existing locations in light of the
operating performance of the facilities at such locations.
Year 2000 Compliance
Isle of Capri has completed the evaluation of its information technology
infrastructure for Year 2000 issues. The evaluation process included a detailed
inventory of all computer hardware and software systems, detailed vendor
communication and the creation of a concise Year 2000 plan. All of Isle of
Capri's significant systems infrastructure is currently Year 2000 compliant.
Isle of Capri has received assurances that it believes are reasonable from
vendors of material products used by Isle of Capri that their products are Year
2000 compliant. Isle of Capri is changing to a casino player tracking and table
system which is Year 2000 compliant. The total cost of this change is
approximately $0.4 million. Isle of Capri has not incurred and does not intend
to incur any material costs to modify its information technology infrastructure
in order to be Year 2000 compliant. All software needed will be provided by the
respective information technology vendor at no charge to Isle of Capri. Isle of
Capri has completed all necessary software modifications.
Isle of Capri and its results of operations and financial condition could
be adversely affected by a failure of one or more of the third parties with
which it does business to satisfactorily address and resolve any Year 2000
issues. In addition, Year 2000 difficulties experienced by public utilities,
the banking system, the postal system or other similar infrastructure
enterprises could adversely affect Isle of Capri. However, Isle of Capri
believes that the impact of such problems on Isle of Capri would be the same
as on other businesses in the same area or areas. Isle of Capri believes
these risks range from slight financial malfunctions to, in a worst case
scenario, an extensive and costly inability to communicate with customers and
suppliers. Isle of Capri has completed its programming which it believes to
be effective to resolve all of the Company's significant Year 2000 issues.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.
One of our subsidiaries has been named, along with numerous manufacturers,
distributors and gaming operators, including many of the country's largest
gaming operators, in a consolidated class action lawsuit pending in Las Vegas,
Nevada. These gaming industry defendants are alleged to have violated the
Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act by engaging in a course of
fraudulent and misleading conduct intended to induce people to play their gaming
machines based upon a false belief concerning how those gaming machines actually
operate and the extent to which there is actually an opportunity to win on any
given play. The suit seeks unspecified compensatory and punitive damages. A
motion for certification of the class is currently pending before the court and
no discovery as to the merits of the alleged claims has begun. We are unable at
this time to determine what effect, if any, the suit would have on our financial
position or results of operations. However, the gaming industry defendants are
committed to defend vigorously all claims asserted in the consolidated action.
In February 1998, the Isle-Vicksburg was named as a defendant in an action
brought by an individual who owns property adjacent to the Big Black River in
the eastern part of Warren County, Mississippi and several other parties. Also
named as defendants in the action are two other operators in the Vicksburg
market and one of the largest banks in the State of Mississippi. The amended
complaint alleged that the defendants entered into an agreement to conduct a
campaign opposing a gaming application for a site next to property owned by the
plaintiffs. The plaintiffs alleged that because of this agreement trade was
improperly restrained and competition in the gaming business was reduced. The
plaintiffs further alleged that the defendants conspired for the purpose of
injuring the plaintiffs' property rights. The Company denies any liability;
however, in order to avoid the cost of litigation and the risk of adverse
judgement, the Company settled this suit, without admitting liability, on
October 13, 1999.
In May 1998, we were named as a defendant in an action brought by several
persons who had a contractual right to acquire property in Cripple Creek,
Colorado which they sold to one of our subsidiaries in 1995. The plaintiffs
allege that we breached our purported agreement to construct a casino facility
on the property by the end of 1995. In December 1998, our motion to dismiss the
complaint was granted by the United States District Court in Denver, Colorado.
The plaintiffs have appealed this decision to the Tenth Circuit Court of
Appeals. We intend to vigorously defend all claims and allegations in the
action.
In August 1997, a lawsuit was filed which seeks to nullify a contract to
which Louisiana Riverboat Gaming Partnership is a party. Pursuant to the
contract, Louisiana Riverboat Gaming Partnership pays a fixed amount plus a
percentage of revenue to various local governmental entities, including the
City of Bossier and the Bossier Parish School Board, in lieu of payment of a
per-passenger boarding fee. Summary judgment in favor of Louisiana Riverboat
Gaming Partnership was granted on June 4, 1998. That judgment was not appealed
and is now final. On June 11, 1998, a similar suit was filed and is currently
pending. We intend to vigorously defend this suit.
We are engaged in various other litigation matters and have a number of
unresolved claims. Although the ultimate liability of this litigation and these
claims cannot be determined at this time, we believe that they will not have a
material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position or results of
operations.
