                NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                    (Unaudited)
                                          
1.   Basis of Presentation and Consolidation - Harveys Casino Resorts (the
     "Company") is engaged in the casino entertainment industry. The Company
     owns and operates  Harveys Resort Hotel Casino on the south shore  of Lake
     Tahoe, Nevada.   Until April 30, 1996, the Company, through its wholly
     owned subsidiary, Harveys C. C. Management Company, Inc. ( HCCMC') owned
     70% of the equity interest in Harveys Wagon Wheel Casino Limited Liability
     Company ( HWW') which owns Harveys Wagon Wheel Hotel Casino in Central City
     Colorado.  On April 30, 1996, the Company acquired all of the 30% minority
     interest in HWW in exchange for common stock of the Company.  HCCMC has a
     contract to manage the Central City hotel and casino.  Through its wholly
     owned subsidiary, Harveys L. V. Management Company, Inc. ( HLVMC'), the
     Company owns 40% of the equity interest in Hard Rock Hotel, Inc. ( HRHC'),
     which owns the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada.  HLVMC has
     a contract to manage the Las Vegas hotel and casino which opened for
     business on March 9, 1995.  Additionally, the Company's wholly owned
     subsidiary, Harveys Iowa Management Company, Inc. ( HIMC') is the owner and
     operator of Harveys Casino/ Hotel and Kanesville Queen,  a riverboat
     casino, hotel, convention center complex in Council Bluffs, Iowa.  The
     riverboat casino portion of the complex opened for business on January 1,
     1996 and the land-based hotel opened for business on May 24, 1996.

     Pursuant to the management agreement with HRHC,  the Company earns a base
     management fee of 4% of adjusted gross revenue (as defined in the
     agreement) and up to an additional 2% of adjusted gross revenue if certain
     financial targets are met.  The Company also receives, from HWW,  a
     management fee of 5% of adjusted gross revenue (as defined in the
     management  agreement with HWW).  These fees are for services the Company
     renders as the project manager for each of the hotel casinos.  The
     management fees from HWW are eliminated in consolidation.

     The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
     Harveys Casino Resorts and its majority and wholly owned subsidiaries.  All
     significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. 
     Investments in unconsolidated affiliates are stated at cost adjusted by
     equity in undistributed earnings or losses.  Minority interest represents
     the minority member's proportionate share of equity in HWW at November 30,
     1995 and its proportionate share of income or loss from HWW until April 30,
     1996, the date on which the Company acquired the minority interest in HWW.

     The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of November 30, 1995 has been
     prepared from the audited financial statements at that date.  The
     accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared
     by the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
     Securities and Exchange Commission.  Accordingly, certain information and
     footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in
     accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been
     condensed or omitted.

     In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal
     recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of financial
     condition at May 31, 1996, have been included.  All necessary adjustments
     affecting cash flows for the six months ended May 31, 1996 and 1995 or
     results of operations for the three and six months ended May 31, 1996 and
     1995, have also been included.  The results of operations for the interim
     periods should not be considered indicative of results for a full fiscal
     year.

     Certain  prior year period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the
     current period presentation.  These reclassifications have no affect on the
     net income or net loss presented for any of the periods.
     
     These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial
     statements, and notes thereto, in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K
     for the year ended November 30, 1995.

                                     (Unaudited)                                


2.   Net Income (Loss) Per Share - Net income (loss) per share is computed based
     on the weighted average number of shares of common stock and dilutive
     common stock equivalents outstanding during the period.   Fully diluted per
     share amounts are the same as primary per share amounts for all periods
     presented.

3.   Supplemental Disclosure of Cash Flow Information - The Company made cash
     payments for interest of $6.8 million and $ $1.6 million during the six
     months ended May 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively.  The Company capitalized
     $2.4 million of interest in the first six months of fiscal 1996, and
     capitalized $ 160,000 in the same period of fiscal 1995.  The Company made 
     cash  payments for income taxes of $302,000 in the first half of  fiscal
     1996, and $200,000 during the same period of fiscal 1995.

4.   Future Development Costs - The Company capitalizes costs associated with
     new gaming projects until: (i) the project is no longer considered viable
     and the costs are expensed; or (ii) the likelihood of the project is
     relatively certain and the costs are reclassified either to pre-opening
     costs and expensed when operations commence or to property and equipment
     and ultimately depreciated.  Capitalized future development costs of
     approximately $817,000 and $724,000 were included as other assets on the
     balance sheet at May 31, 1996 and November 30, 1995, respectively.

5.   Pre-opening Expenses - Pre-opening expenses are associated with the
     acquisition, development and opening of the Company's new casino resorts. 
     These amounts are expensed when the casino commences operations and include
     items that were capitalized as incurred prior to opening and items that are
     directly related to the opening of the property and are non-recurring in
     nature. Approximately $3.6 million of pre-opening expenses were expensed in
     the first quarter of 1996 in connection with the Company's opening of
     HIMC's riverboat casino in Council Bluffs, Iowa on January 1, 1996 and an
     additional $508,000 was expensed in the second quarter of 1996 with the
     opening of HIMC's land-based hotel facilities in May 1996.  Approximately
     $2.1 million of pre-opening expenses were expensed in the first quarter of
     fiscal 1995 in conjunction with the Company's opening of Harveys Wagon
     Wheel Hotel Casino in December 1994.  During the second quarter of fiscal
     1995, the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino opened and expensed approximately $4.5
     million of pre-opening expenses.  The Company's equity in the loss of the
     Hard Rock Hotel and Casino, which is included in management fees and joint
     venture revenues, includes the Company's share of those pre-opening
     expenses.

  issued and sold, pursuant to an underwritten public offering, $150 million in
  aggregate principal amount of 10  % senior subordinated notes due  2006 (the

  Restricted Subsidiaries were HCCMC, HWW, HIMC and HLVMC.

  Interest on the Senior Notes is payable semi-annually on June 1 and December
  1 of each year, commencing December 1, 1996.  The Senior Notes are redeemable
  at the option of the Company, in whole or in part at any time on or after
  June 1, 2001 at prices ranging from 105.313% of the principal amount plus
  accrued and unpaid interest to 100% of the principal amount plus accrued and
  unpaid interest beginning June 1, 2004 and thereafter.  Upon a Change of
  Control (as defined in the Indenture) each holder of the Senior Notes will
  have the right to require the Company to repurchase such holder's Senior
  Notes at 101% of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest to the
  repurchase date.

  The Indenture contains certain covenants that impose limitations on, among
  other things, (i) the incurrance of additional indebtedness by the Company or
  any Restricted Subsidiary, (ii) the payment of dividends, (iii) the
  repurchase of capital stock and the making of certain other Restricted
  Payments and Restricted Investments (as defined in the Indenture) by the
  Company or any Restricted Subsidiary, (iv) mergers, consolidations and sales
  of assets by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary, (v) the creation or
  incurrance of liens on the assets of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary
  and (vi) transactions by the Company or any of its subsidiaries with
  Affiliates (as defined in the Indenture).  These limitations are subject to a
  number of qualifications and exceptions as described in the Indenture.

  Subordinated Notes, Due 2000 - On April 30, 1996, the Company completed
  exchanges whereby, (i) the Company acquired the $11.9 million aggregate
  principal amount of subordinated notes payable by HWW to  affiliates ( the
  HWW Notes'), and interest accrued thereon, in exchange for $6 million cash
  and $8 million aggregate  face amount of

6.   Long-Term Debt (continued)

  subordinated notes of the Company, due December 31, 2000 ( the  Debt
  Exchange') and (ii) the Company acquired all of the 30% minority equity
  interest in HWW, and the rights to a priority return from HWW, from Mountain
  City Casino Partners, L. P. ( Mountain City') for 382,500 shares of the
  Company's common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the  Equity Exchange').

  The subordinated notes issued by the Company pursuant to the Debt Exchange
  (the  Harveys Notes') are governed by an indenture ( the  Exchange
  Indenture').  The Exchange Indenture provides for redemption of the Harveys
  Notes at the Company's option, in whole or in part, upon not less than 30 nor
  more than 60 days notice at a price of 97.5% of the principal amount plus
  accrued and unpaid interest if redeemed before December 31, 1996, at 99% of
  the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest if redeemed before
  December 31, 1997 and at 100% of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid
  interest if redeemed on December 31, 1997, or thereafter. The Exchange
  Indenture also calls for mandatory redemption, at the optional redemption
  prices, if the Company consummates a public debt offering of any amount. 
  Subsequent to the closing of the Senior Note offering, the Company notified
  the holders of the Harveys Notes that the Company would redeem all of the
  Harveys Notes for an aggregate price of $7.8 million plus accrued and unpaid
  interest on July 8, 1996. 

  Subordinated Notes Payable to Affiliates - In November 1993, HWW issued
  approximately $11.9 million of  12% subordinated notes payable to affiliates
  of Mountain City, which, until April 30, 1996, owned a 30% minority interest
  in HWW.  Interest on the notes was payable monthly beginning March 1995. 
  Accrued interest through and including February 1995, of approximately $1.9
  million was payable on December 1, 1995.  An initial principal payment of
  $3.967 million was due in November 1995.  HWW did not make the required
  principal payment or the $1.9 million interest payment.  On April 30, 1996
  the Company acquired all of the $11.9 million  of subordinated notes, and
  accrued interest thereon, in exchange for $6 million in cash and $8 million
  principal amount of the Company's Subordinate Notes.  See Long-Term Debt-
  Subordinated Notes, Due 2000.

  Notes Payable to Banks - On August 14, 1995 the Company entered into a
  reducing revolving credit agreement with a consortium of banks.  On May 15,
  1996 and again on May 23, 1996 the reducing revolving credit agreement was
  amended, essentially to allow for the Debt Exchange, the Equity Exchange and
  the issuance of the Senior Notes.

  Currently under the amended reducing revolving credit agreement ( the  Credit
  Facility') the Company can borrow up to a maximum available principal balance
  of $150 million.  The maximum available under the Credit Facility is reduced
  by the advanced but unpaid principal balance and by any letter of credit
  exposure.  The advanced but unpaid principal balance at November 30, 1995 was
  $115 million.  As a result of using a portion of the proceeds from the sale
  of the Senior Notes to paydown the outstanding balance, there were no amounts
  advanced but unpaid under the Credit Facility at May 31, 1996.  Outstanding
  letters of credit amounted to approximately $2.2 million at May 31, 1996. 
  The note payable under the Credit Facility matures in August 2000.  Until
  then, the annual year-end maximum principal balances are as follows:

6.Long-Term Debt (continued)

  The Company pays quarterly fees at an annual rate of three-eights (0.375%) or
  one-half of one percent (0.5%)  on the unborrowed maximum principal balance
  depending on the Company's ratio of funded debt to earnings before interest,
  taxes, depreciation and amortization.  The rate in affect at November 30,
  1995 and May 31, 1996 was 0.5%.

  Interest is due and payable monthly and is provided at the higher of the
  prime rate or the Federal Funds Rate plus one-half of one percent (0.5%),
  plus an applicable margin determined by the Company's ratio of funded debt to
  earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization.  However, in
  accordance with the terms of the Credit Facility, the Company has the option
  to cause portions, or all, of the outstanding principal balance to accrue
  interest at a rate equal to the London Inter-Bank Offering Rate (LIBOR) plus
  the applicable margin.

  The note is collateralized by all of the Company's property and equipment,
  contract rights, leases, intangibles and other security interest related to
  Harveys Resort Hotel Casino, Harveys Wagon Wheel Hotel Casino and the
  Company's wholly-owned subsidiary, HIMC.  The Credit Facility also contains
  covenants which require the Company to maintain certain financial ratios.  A
  member of the Company's Board of Directors is also a director of the lead
  bank of the consortium of banks making the loan.
 
  Notes Payable to Financing Company- HWW entered into an equipment financing
  agreement with a financing company to finance the acquisition of up to $7.5
  million of gaming and associated equipment.  The principal balance of the
  secured notes under the equipment financing agreement as of May 31, 1996 was
  approximately $4.6 million.  The notes are secured by the equipment acquired
  and are payable in monthly payments of approximately $194, 000 and $56,000
  including interest at 12.15%.  The notes will mature in December, 1997, and
  July, 1998, respectively.
                                           
  Note Payable, Riverboat Financing- On December 26, 1995, HIMC entered into a
  $20 million Loan and Security Agreement ( the  Iowa Loan Agreement').  As
  security for the loan, HIMC granted the lender a first preferred ship
  mortgage on the riverboat casino vessel known as the Harveys Kanesville Queen
  and a first priority security interest in all personalty, earnings and
  insurance from the riverboat only, excluding personalty, earnings and
  insurance derived form casino gaming operations.  The obligation under the
  Iowa Loan Agreement was guaranteed by Harveys Casino Resorts.  Borrowings
  under the Iowa Loan Agreement bore interest at a fixed rate of 8.42% per
  annum.  Principal and interest payments commenced in January 1996 and were
  paid monthly.  The Company applied a portion of the net proceeds from the
  offering of the Senior Notes to retire the note payable under the Iowa Loan
  Agreement in June 1996.

7 Extraordinary Item - In May 1996, the Company expensed the remaining
  unamortized debt issuance costs related to a $10 million note payable to a
  private investor that was retired before maturity.  This item was reflected
  in the 1996 operating results as an extraordinary loss of approximately
  $141,000 which was net of an income tax benefit of approximately $85,000. 
  The Company applied a portion of the net  proceeds from the sale of the
  Senior Notes to retire the note payable under the Iowa Loan Agreement in June
  1996 and recognized approximately $302,000 of expense, before income tax
  benefit, by expensing the unamortized debt issuance cost related to that
  agreement.  In July 1996 the Company will retire the Harveys Notes and
  expects to recognize approximately $400,000 of similar expense before income
  tax benefits.

8. Commitments - Until May  10, 1996, the Company, with the approval of its 
   lenders, guaranteed up to  $66.0 million of a loan on behalf of HRHC. On May 
   10, 1996 the Company was released from such guarantee.  The Company paid a   
   fee of approximately $385,000 to the banks participating in the HRHC loan as
   a condition of  the release. 

  On January 1, 1996, the Company opened the riverboat casino portion of its
  project in Council Bluffs, Iowa and on May 24, 1996 opened the 251-room,
  land-based hotel facilities.  The Company is in the process of finishing
  construction of the 21,000 square foot convention facility and other land-
  based amenities.  As a result, the Company has entered into a number of
  contracts or agreements relative to the development of the Council Bluffs
  project.  The cost of the project, including the riverboat casino vessel and
  pre-opening expenses is expected to be approximately $110.5 million.  Through
  May 31, 1996 the Company had incurred approximately $107 million of project
  costs.       

9.Unconsolidated Affiliate - The Company owns a 40% equity interest in HRHC.
  Pursuant to a management agreement, the Company earns a base management fee 
  of 4% of adjusted gross revenue (as defined in the agreement), and up to an
  additional 2% of adjusted gross revenue if certain financial targets are met,
  from HRHC.  The  Company accounts for its investment in HRHC on the equity 
  method.  The Hard Rock Hotel and Casino opened on March 9, 1995.  Operating
  results prior to the opening were immaterial.  Summarized, unaudited 
  statement of operations information (in thousands of dollars) for HRHC,

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

OVERVIEW

Prior to fiscal 1995 the Company's operations were substantially limited to
those of Harveys Resort Hotel Casino on the south shore of Lake Tahoe, Nevada. 
During fiscal 1993, the Company began investing in expansion projects designed
to expand the Company's operations into new and diverse markets.  On December 2,
1994, the first of the expansion projects, Harveys Wagon Wheel Hotel Casino
opened in Central City, Colorado. On March 9, 1995, the Hard Rock Hotel and
Casino opened in Las Vegas, Nevada.  On January 1, 1996 the riverboat casino
portion of Harveys Casino Hotel and Kanesville Queen opened for business in
Council Bluffs, Iowa and, on May 24, 1996, the adjacent land-based hotel, food
and beverage facilities opened.

On April 30, 1996, the Company acquired the 30% minority interest in HWW and
Harveys Wagon Wheel Hotel Casino and HWW became wholly-owned by the Company. 
The operations of Harveys Wagon Wheel Hotel Casino are managed by HCCMC, a
wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.  HCCMC receives a fee for management
services provided by HCCMC.  The accounts of HWW are consolidated with those of
the Company.  All significant intercompany transactions and accounts are
eliminated in consolidation, including the elimination of the management fee.

The Hard Rock Hotel and Casino is owned by HRHC., a Nevada corporation, of which
the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary, HLVMC, owns 40% of the equity
interest.  HLVMC manages the operations of the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino
pursuant to a management agreement between the Company and HRHC and receives
management fees that are included in the Company's consolidated revenues.  The
investment in HRHC is accounted for on the equity method.

Harveys Casino/Hotel and Kanesville Queen project is wholly-owned and, since its
opening in 1996, operated by the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary, HIMC.  The
accounts of HIMC are consolidated with those of the Company.  All significant
intercompany transactions and accounts are eliminated in consolidation.

On May 22, 1996, the Company received $145.5 million in proceeds, net of
underwriting commissions, from the sale of $150 million of Senior Notes.

The changes in the operating results for the second quarter and first six months
of fiscal 1996 as compared to the second quarter and first six months of fiscal
1995 were primarily the result of the opening of the Company's expansion
projects in fiscal 1996 and fiscal 1995.  The changes in the Company's financial
condition, liquidity, and capital resources, as discussed below, were primarily
attributable to the Company's expansion efforts,  the acquisition of the
minority interests in HWW, the acquisition of the HWW Notes and the public debt
offering of the Senior Notes.

COMPARISON OF THE SECOND QUARTERS ENDED MAY 31, 1996 AND MAY 31, 1995

The Company's consolidated net revenues for the second quarter of fiscal 1996
amounted to approximately $59.4 million, a new record for the Company's
second quarter and an increase of $18.7 million, or 46.1% over net revenues
recorded in the second quarter of fiscal 1995.  The increase was attributable
to the $15.9 million of net revenues produced in the first full quarter of
operations of the Company's riverboat casino in Council Bluffs, Iowa.  The
increase in net revenues generated during the current year second quarter at
the Company's Lake Tahoe property amounted to approximately $908,000. 
Harveys Wagon Wheel Hotel Casino experienced a 6.9% increase in net revenues,
up $757,000 comparing fiscal year 1996 second quarter amounts to those
generated at the Central City, Colorado property's inaugural second quarter
of operations in fiscal 1995.  The Hard Rock Hotel and Casino, which opened
during the second quarter in fiscal 1995, contributed an increase of  nearly
$1.1 million to the Company's net revenues in the second quarter of fiscal
1996, by way of management fees and equity in the joint venture income. 

Fiscal 1996 second quarter casino revenues, enhanced by the riverboat casino
operations in Council Bluffs, amounted to approximately $45.3 million, an
increase of $16.6 million over the prior year comparable quarter.  The
initial second quarter of gaming activity on board the riverboat produced
approximately $15.4 million of casino revenue accounting for the majority of
the quarter-over-quarter increase. The Lake Tahoe and Colorado properties
contributed $264,000 and $1 million, respectively, to the increase in casino
revenues.  Casino costs and expenses also increased for the comparable
quarterly periods, up $7.9 million to $21.9 million for the current year
period.  The riverboat casino accounted for $6.6 million of the increase
while the Lake Tahoe and Colorado operations accounted for approximately
$589,000 and $754,000 of the increase, respectively, due to increases in
casino complimentaries and promotions at both properties. 

Lodging revenues for the fiscal 1996 second quarter improved by approximately
$530,000 over the prior year second quarter and amounted to $6.2 million. 
Increases in the occupancy rate at the Lake Tahoe hotel and the opening of
the hotel facility in Council Bluffs at quarter-end provided for the lodging
revenues improvement.  Lodging profit margins also improved for the quarter-to
- -quarter comparison due to cost control  improvements recognized at the
Central City hotel.

Food and beverage revenues for the current fiscal year second quarter
amounted to $9.0 million, an improvement of $1.0 million over the prior year
second quarter.  The beverage and limited food service aboard the Council
Bluffs riverboat casino provided $786,000 of the increase.  Expanded food and
beverage offerings became available at the Council Bluffs land-based
facilities at the end of May 1996.  Food and beverage costs declined by
approximately $162,000, or 3.3 %, in the quarter-to-quarter comparison due to
improvements in cost-of-sales and labor costs at both the Lake Tahoe and
Central City operations.

Other revenues for the fiscal second quarter remained flat with those from
the prior fiscal year second quarter.  The contribution from the Company's
management fees and 40% equity participation in the Hard Rock Hotel and
Casino amounted to an increase of approximately $1.1 million.  The Hard Rock
Hotel and Casino opened nine days into  the second quarter of fiscal 1995
and, consequently, the three month period of the prior year includes the
effect of HLVMC's pro rata share of after-tax pre-opening expenses of
approximately $1 million. 

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by approximately $4.6
million, or 38.2% to $16.8 million for the current fiscal year second
quarter.  The first full quarter of operations in Council Bluffs resulted in
approximately $4.3 million of selling, general and administrative expenses,
excluding the recognition of pre-opening expenses.  The Central City
operations recognized an improvement in overall selling, general and
administrative expenses of approximately $365,000 from the second quarter of
<PAGE>

fiscal 1995 compared to the current fiscal year second quarter, while these
expenses increased by $163,000 at the Lake Tahoe property.  Depreciation and
amortization expenses increased by $750,000.  All of the increase was
associated with the opening and operation of the riverboat casino beginning
in January 1996  in Council Bluffs.  Net interest expense increased by
$631,000 or 30.3% to approximately $2.7 million for the second quarter of
fiscal 1996.  The increase in interest expense was recognized as a result of
the financing of the Council Bluffs project. 

With the opening of the Council Bluffs land-based facilities in the second
quarter of fiscal 1996, the Company recognized approximately $508,000 of 
pre-opening expenses. In the second quarter of 1995 the Hard Rock Hotel and
Casino results were affected by the expensing of approximately $4.5 million
of pre-opening costs. These charges had previously been incurred in
connection with the development of those properties and deferred until
operations commenced.   HLVMC's pro rata after-tax share of the Hard Rock
Hotel and Casino pre-opening expenses amounted to approximately $1 million
and was included in management fees and joint venture revenues.

In May 1996, the Company expensed the remaining unamortized debt issuance
costs related to a $10 million note payable to a private investor that was
retired before maturity.  This item was reflected in the 1996 operating
results as an extraordinary loss of approximately $141,000 which was net of
an income tax benefit of approximately $85,000.  Consistent with the
description of the use of proceeds relative to the sale of the Senior Notes,
the Company retired the note payable under the Iowa Loan Agreement in June
1996 and recognized approximately $302,000 of expense, before income tax
benefit, by expensing the unamortized debt issuance cost related to that
agreement.  In July 1996 the Company will retire the Harveys Notes and
expects to recognize approximately $400,000 of similar expense before income
tax benefits.

The net income for the fiscal 1996 second quarter amounted to
approximately$3.0 million compared to $961,000 for the prior fiscal year
second quarter.  If pre-opening expenses, net of income taxes, were excluded
from both periods, and, if the extraordinary loss on early retirement of debt
was excluded from the current year period,  the results would have been net
income of approximately $3.5 million for the current fiscal year period  and
net income of approximately $2 million for the prior year period.  

COMPARISON OF THE SIX MONTH PERIODS ENDED MAY 31, 1996 AND MAY 31, 1995

The Company's consolidated net revenues through the six months ended May 31,
1996 amounted to approximately $108.9 million, an increase of $29.9 million,
or 37.8% over net revenues recorded in the same period of fiscal 1995.  The
increase was primarily attributable to the $26.8 million of net revenues
produced in the operations of the Company's riverboat casino in Council
Bluffs, Iowa.  Net revenues generated during the current year at the
Company's Lake Tahoe property accounted for  approximately $649,000 of the
increase.  Harveys Wagon Wheel Hotel Casino experienced a $222,000 increase
in net revenues, comparing fiscal year 1996 amounts to those generated at the
Central City, Colorado property's inaugural operations in fiscal 1995.  The
Hard Rock Hotel and Casino, which opened in March, 1995, contributed an
increase of nearly $2.2 million to the Company's net revenues in the first
six months of fiscal 1996, by way of management fees and equity in the joint
venture income. The prior year period's management fees and equity in joint
venture income were diminished by approximately $1 million as a result of
HLVMC's pro rata share of after-tax pre-opening expenses.

Year-to-date casino revenues, including five months of casino revenues from 
the riverboat casino operations in Council Bluffs,  amounted to approximately
$82.3 million, an increase of $26.8 million over the prior year period. The
<PAGE>

gaming activity on board the riverboat produced approximately $25.9 million
of casino revenue, accounting for the majority of the year-to-date increase. 
The Lake Tahoe operations contributed approximately $213,000 and the Colorado
operations contributed approximately $638,000 to the casino revenue increase.
Casino costs and expenses also increased for the comparable year-to-date
periods, up $14.2 million to $41.6 million for the current year.  The
riverboat casino accounted for $11.3 million of the increase while the Lake
Tahoe and Colorado operations accounted for approximately $1.3 million and
$1.6 million of the increase, respectively, due in part, to increases in
casino complimentaries and promotions at both properties. 

Lodging revenues for the fiscal 1996 six month period improved by
approximately $868,000 over the prior year comparable period and amounted to
$12.3 million.  Increases in the occupancy rate at the Lake Tahoe and Central
City hotels and the opening of the hotel facility in Council Bluffs at the
end of May 1996 provided for the lodging revenues improvement.  Lodging
profit margins also improved for the six month comparison with improvements
recognized at both Lake Tahoe and Central City. 

Food and beverage revenues for the current fiscal year period amounted to
$17.4 million, an improvement of $1.6 million over the 1995 period.  The
beverage and limited food service aboard the Council Bluffs riverboat casino
provided $1.3 million of the increase.  Expanded food and beverage offerings
were available at the Council Bluffs land-based facilities at the close of
the six month period ended May 31, 1996.  Food and beverage costs declined by
approximately $813,000, or 8.2 %, in the period-to-period comparison due to
improvements in cost-of-sales at the Lake Tahoe property and improvements in
cost-of-sales and labor at the Central City operations.

In June 1996, HWW entered into a management agreement with an unaffiliated
management company (the  Management Company') whereby the Management Company
will provide substantially all of the food service and a portion of the
beverage service at Harveys Wagon Wheel Hotel Casino commencing August 1,
1996.  The managed food service facilities will include a Tony Roma's Famous
For Ribs restaurant. The Management Company will pay HWW a monthly base fee
and potentially an annual percentage fee if the Management Company's food and
beverage revenues exceed an established target.  Consequently, operating
results for Harveys Wagon Wheel Hotel Casino for periods after August 1, 1996
will reflect diminished food and beverage revenues and diminished food and
beverage costs and expenses.  Other revenues will include fees earned by the
Company and payable by the Management Company.

Other  revenues for the fiscal year-to-date period remained flat with those
from the prior fiscal year period.  The contribution from the Company's
management fees and 40% equity participation in the Hard Rock Hotel and
Casino amounted to an increase in revenues of approximately $2.2 million. 
The Hard Rock Hotel and Casino opened in March 1995 and, consequently, the
six month period of the prior year includes the effect of HLVMC's pro rata
share of after-tax pre-opening expenses of approximately $1 million. 

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by approximately $6.7
million, or 27.2% to $31.2 million for the current fiscal year period.  The
operations in Council Bluffs resulted in approximately $7.3 million of
expenses of a selling, general or administrative  nature, excluding the
recognition of pre-opening expenses.  The Central City operations recognized
an improvement in overall selling, general and administrative expenses of
approximately $411,000 from the fiscal 1995 period compared to the current
fiscal year, while these expenses also decreased by $209,000 at the Lake
Tahoe property.  Depreciation and amortization expenses increased by $1.3
million.  All of the increase was associated with the opening and operation

<PAGE>
of the riverboat casino beginning in January 1996, in Council Bluffs.  Net
interest expense increased by $859,000 or 22.6% to approximately $4.7 million
for the fiscal 1996 period.  The increase in interest expense was recognized
as a result of the financing of the Council Bluffs project. 

With the opening of the Council Bluffs riverboat casino in January 1996 and
the opening of land-based facilities in May 1996, the Company recognized
approximately $4.1 million of pre-opening expenses.  In the prior fiscal year
the Company opened Harveys Wagon Wheel Hotel Casino in the first quarter and
recognized approximately $2.1 million of pre-opening expenses.  Additionally,
the Company's equity in the loss from the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino included
the prorata effects of approximately $4.5 million of pre-opening costs
expensed at the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino during the second quarter of
fiscal 1995. These charges had previously been incurred in connection with
the development of the properties  and deferred until operations commenced. 

In May 1996, the Company expensed the remaining unamortized debt issuance
costs related to a $10 million note payable to a private investor that was
retired before maturity.  This item was reflected in the 1996 operating
results as an extraordinary loss of approximately $141,000 which was net of
an income tax benefit of approximately $85,000.  Consistent with the
description of the use of proceeds relative to the sale of the Senior Notes,
the Company retired the note payable under the Iowa Loan Agreement in June
1996 and recognized approximately $302,000 of expense, before income tax
benefit, by expensing the unamortized debt issuance cost related to that
agreement.  In July 1996 the Company will retire the Harveys Notes and
expects to recognize approximately $400,000 of similar expense before income
tax benefits. 

The net income for the fiscal 1996 period amounted to approximately $2.4
million compared to a loss of  $156,000 for the prior fiscal year period.  If
pre-opening expenses, net of taxes, were excluded from both periods, and,  if
the extraordinary loss on early retirement of debt was excluded form the
current year period, the results would have been net income of approximately
$5.1 million for the current fiscal year period and approximately $1.8
million for the comparable period of fiscal 1995. 

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company's primary sources of liquidity and capital resources to date have
been cash flow from operations, borrowings under various credit arrangements,
and in fiscal 1996, the net proceeds of $145.5 million, net of underwriting
commissions,  from the Company's public debt offering.

At May 31, 1996 the Company had approximately $ 23.9 million of cash and cash
equivalents and a maximum of $147.8 million available under the Credit
Facility,  subject to certain financial covenant compliance.  Cash flow from
operations for the first half of fiscal 1996 was approximately $21.5 million
compared to $13.8 million for the first half of fiscal 1995.

During the first half of fiscal 1996, the Company continued to fund the
development and construction of the Council Bluffs project with cash
expenditures of $42.5 million .  Additionally, the Company made cash payments
for dividends of approximately $768,000 during the six month period and
incurred additional cash expenditures of approximately $6.1 million in
connection with capital improvements and replacements at Harveys Resort Hotel
Casino.

In addition, on April 30, 1996, in agreement with the terms of the Debt
Exchange, the Company paid the holders of the HWW Notes an aggregate of $6
million in cash and an aggregate of $8 million of the subordinated Harveys
Notes in exchange for all of the outstanding HWW Notes and unpaid interest
accrued thereon.  On such date, in agreement with the terms of the Equity
Exchange, the Company also exchanged 382,500 shares of the Company's common
stock for (i) 30% of the equity interests of HWW, (ii) the rights to an
approximately $3 million priority return from HWW and (iii) an option to
acquire an additional 5% of the equity interests in HWW.

<PAGE>
On May 22, 1996, the Company completed its public debt offering of the $150
million in Senior Notes.  The proceeds, $145.5 million net of underwriting
commissions, were used to paydown the entire outstanding balance under the
Credit Facility and to payoff a $10 million note that was executed in
February 1996 with a private investor.  The Company expensed the associated
unamortized debt issuance costs upon the retirement of the $10 million note. 
The expense amounted to approximately $141,000, net of an income tax benefit
of approximately $85,000. 

In May 1996, in preparation for the public debt offering, the Company
negotiated a release of its guarantee of the amount outstanding under HRHC's
reducing revolving credit facility.  The Company paid a fee of approximately
$385,000 to the banks participating in the reducing revolving credit facility
in connection with the release.

As a result of the Debt Exchange, the Equity Exchange, the public debt
offering and the use of proceeds therefrom, and borrowings to fund capital
expenditures, the Company's long-term debt at May 31, 1996 amounted to
approximately $168.2 million, compared to approximately $126.7 million at
November 30, 1995.

After May 31, 1996, and after the required notification periods, the Company
used available cash and borrowings under the Credit Facility to payoff the $8
million principal amount, and accrued interest thereon, of the Harveys Notes
issued in the Debt Exchange and to payoff the approximately $19 million of
principal, and accrued interest thereon, outstanding under the Iowa Loan
Agreement. 

The Harveys Notes were redeemed at a redemption price of 97.5%, or $7.8
million, plus accrued and unpaid interest.  The Company will recognize
approximately $400,000, before income tax benefits, as a loss on early
retirement of debt by expensing the unamortized debt issuance costs related
to the Harveys Notes. 

The note payable under the Iowa Loan Agreement was retired at par plus
accrued and unpaid interest.  The unamortized debt issuance costs related to
the Iowa Loan Agreement amounted to approximately $302, 000 at retirement and
were expensed in June 1996. 

As a result of these transactions subsequent to the end of the second quarter
and borrowing to fund the Council Bluffs project, the Company's current debt
consists of the $150 million in Senior Notes, $25 million outstanding under
the Credit Facility, $4.2 million outstanding under HWW's equipment financing
notes payable to a financing company and approximately $371,000 of other
debt.

The equipment financing agreement entered into by HWW allowed for the
financing of up to $7.5 million of gaming and associated equipment.  Under
the terms of the agreement, repayments of principal and interest are due in
36 monthly installments.  The equipment financing agreement is secured by all
of the gaming and associated equipment financed under the agreement.  The
obligation under the financing agreement is guaranteed by the Company.  

The maximum available principal balance under the Credit Facility of $150
million is reduced by outstanding borrowings and letter of credit exposure. 
At November 30, 1995 the outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility
amounted to $115 million and letters of credit exposure amounted to
approximately $1.7 million leaving $33.3 million available.  At May 31, 1996,
there were no outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility, the letters
of credit exposure had increased to $2.2 million and the maximum amount
available was approximately $147.8 million, subject to compliance with
financial covenants. 

<PAGE>
The Credit Facility matures on August 16, 2000.  There are no required
repayments of principal under the Credit Facility in 1996.  In 1997, required
repayments of principal, assuming maximum principal amounts are outstanding,
total approximately $15 million.  The year-end maximum principal balance
outstanding under the Credit Facility reduces to $135 million in 1997, $120
million in 1998 and $97.5 million in 1999.  The Company is required to make
payments reducing the principal balance outstanding under the Credit Facility
to the applicable maximum permitted principal balance on February 1, of each
of 1997, 1998, 1999 and 2000.  The Credit Facility is secured by all of the
real and personal property of, (i) Harveys Resort Hotel Casino, (ii) HIMC and
(iii) HWW,  including a pledge of the subsidiaries' stock, as well as all of
the contracts the Company has entered into in connection with its ownership
and operation of , (i)Harveys Resort Hotel Casino, (ii) HIMC and (iii) HWW. 
Interest on borrowings outstanding under the Credit Facility is payable, at
the Company's option, at either the LIBOR or the prime rate of Wells Fargo
Bank, formerly First Interstate Bank of Nevada, N. A. ( Wells Fargo'), in
each case plus an applicable margin.  The applicable margin is determined
with reference to the Company's funded debt to EBITDA ratio.  The applicable
margins as of May 31, 1996 were 2.0% with respect to the LIBOR based interest
rate, and 0.5%, with respect to the Wells Fargo prime rate based interest
rate. 

The Credit Facility contains certain financial and other covenants.  The
financial covenants prevent the Company from making any investments in or
advances to affiliates without the prior written consent of the lenders under
the Credit Facility.  The covenants allow the declaration and payment of
dividends without the prior written consent of the lenders if certain fixed
charge coverage ratios are maintained.  The covenants require the Company to
maintain certain set standards with respect to (i) minimum tangible net
worth, (ii) fixed charge coverage ratios and (iii) minimum annual capital
expenditures.  The financial covenants also limit the Company's ability to
incur additional indebtedness. 

The Company pays Wells Fargo an annual agency fee of $100,000 for its
services as agent of the lenders under the Credit Facility and an annual
non-usage fee of or 1/2 of 1% of the average daily amount of the unused portions
of funds committed under the Credit Facility, depending upon the applicable
interest rate margin.

The Senior Notes are governed by an indenture ( the  Indenture') and are
general unsecured obligations of the Company, subordinated in right of
payment to all existing and future Senior Debt of the Company ( as defined in
the Indenture) .  The Senior Notes are guaranteed by each of the Restricted
Subsidiaries  of the Company   ( as defined in the Indenture).  Each
guarantee is a general unsecured obligation of the guaranteeing Restricted
Subsidiary, subordinated in right of payment to all existing and future
Senior Debt of each guaranteeing Restricted Subsidiary.  At May 31, 1996, the
guaranteeing Restricted Subsidiaries were HCCMC, HWW, HIMC and HLVMC.

Interest on the Senior Notes is payable semi-annually on June 1 and December
1 of each year, commencing December 1, 1996.  The Senior Notes are redeemable
at the option of the Company, in whole or in part at any time on or after
June 1, 2001 at prices ranging from 105.313% of the principal amount plus
accrued and unpaid interest,  to 100% of the principal amount plus accrued
and unpaid interest beginning June 1, 2004 and thereafter.  Upon a Change of
Control ( as defined in the Indenture) each holder of the Senior Notes will
have the right to require the Company to repurchase such holder's Senior
Notes at 101% of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest to the
repurchase date. 

<PAGE>
The Indenture contains certain covenants that impose limitation on, among
other things, (i) the incurrance of additional indebtedness by the Company or
any Restricted Subsidiary, (ii) the payment of dividends, (iii) the
repurchase of capital stock and the making of certain other Restricted
Payments and Restricted Investments (as defined in the Indenture) by the
Company or any Restricted Subsidiary, (iv) mergers, consolidations and sales
of assets by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary, (v) the creation or
incurrance of liens on the assets of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary
and (vi) transactions by the Company or any of its subsidiaries with
Affiliates ( as defined in the Indenture).  These limitations are subject to
a number of qualifications and exceptions as described in the Indenture. 

The Company believes that its existing cash and cash equivalents, cash flows
from operations, and its borrowing capacity under the Credit Facility are
sufficient to meet the cash requirements of its existing operations,
including, (i) the completion of construction of the Council Bluffs project,
(ii) capital improvements and replacements at the operating properties, (iii)
the construction of a parking garage adjacent to Harveys Wagon Wheel Hotel
Casino and (iv) debt service requirements.  The existing sources of cash also
provide the Company some flexibility in potential expansion of current
operations or in its pursuit of new gaming opportunities in existing and
emerging jurisdictions.  The realization of such expansion opportunities may
require capital investments in excess of current resources and additional
financing may be required.  The Company believes that additional funds could
be obtained through additional debt or equity financing.  However, no
assurance can be made that such financing would be available at terms
acceptable to the Company, if at all .

involved in any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal,
administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that he or a person of
whom he is the legal representative is or was a director or officer of the
Corporation or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation or for its
benefit as a director or officer of another corporation, or as its
representative in a partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, shall
be indemnified and held harmless to the fullest extent legally permissible under
the General Corporation Law of the State of Nevada from time to time against all
expenses, liability and loss (including attorneys' fees, judgments, fines and
amounts paid or to be paid in settlement) reasonably incurred or suffered by him
in connection therewith.   Such right of indemnification shall be a contract
right which may be enforced in any manner desired by such person.  Such right 
of  indemnification shall not be exclusive of any other right which such 
directors, officers or representatives may have or hereafter acquire and, 
without limiting the generality of such statement, they shall be entitled to 
their respective rights of indemnification under any by-law, agreement, vote 
of Shareholders, provision of law or otherwise, as well as their rights under 
this Article. The Board of Directors may cause the Corporation to purchase and 
maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director or officer 
of the Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a 
director or officer of another corporation, or as its representative in a 
partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any liability 
asserted against such person and incurred in any such capacity or arising out 
of such status, whether or not the Corporation would have the power to 
indemnify such person. 

The indemnification provisions above provided shall include, but not be limited
to, reimbursement of all fees, including amounts paid in settlement and 
attorneys' fees actually and reasonably incurred, in connection with the 
defense or settlement of any action or suit if such party to be indemnified 
acted in good faith and in a manner reasonably believed to be in or not opposed
to the best interests of the Corporation.  Indemnification may not be made for 
any claim, issue or matter as to which the person claiming indemnity has been 
adjudged by a court of competent jurisdiction, after exhaustion of all appeals 
therefrom to be liable to the Corporation or for amounts paid in settlement to 
the Corporation unless and only to the extent that the court in which the 
action or suit was brought or other court of competent jurisdiction determines 
upon application that the person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity
for such expenses as the court deems proper.

prepayment or defeasance of the Senior Subordinated Notes without the prior
written consent of Agent Bank, and (iii) deleting the requirement contained in
