LAS VEGAS, March 31
-- Full House Resorts, Inc. (Amex: FLL) today announced that it
has filed, as provided for under SEC regulations, Form 12b-25 to
allow an additional 15 days for the Company to complete its Annual
Report on Form 10-KSB.
Andre R. Hilliou, Chief Executive Officer, stated,
"The Company has re-evaluated its accounting methodology surrounding
its advances to and contractual relationships with Indian tribes.
We have determined, as is becoming the dominant practice in the
industry, that a portion of these advances should be capitalized
as receivables or interests in management contracts that are acquired
as part of development agreements. Historically, we recorded our
advances to Indian tribes as development expenses or notes receivable.
As a result of the change, recognized expenses will be decreased
resulting in increased net income. While the precise effect has
not been determined, we expect that long-term assets related to
Indian casino projects, retained earnings at December 31, 2004 and
net income for 2004 and 2005 will increase. There will be no effect
on cash flows for either annual period."
The Company anticipates filing a Form 8-K explaining
the re-evaluation of this accounting methodology and the filing
of amended Forms 10-QSB for the quarterly periods ended March 31,
June 30 and September 30, 2005.
The Company is currently finalizing its financial
statements and related disclosures for inclusion in the Company's
Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2005.
Full House has dedicated significant resources to the completion
of its financial statements. Despite this, there have been delays
in completing the financial statements for the reasons explained
above. Full House continues to dedicate significant resources to
the preparation of its financial statements and currently anticipates
filing the Form 10-KSB on or before the extended deadline of April
14, 2006.
Statements contained in this press release may
constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning
of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Actual
results may differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking
statements due to a number of risks, uncertainties and other factors,
as discussed in Full House's filings with the SEC. Full House undertakes
no obligation to publicly update forward-looking statements, whether
as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
