FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Factors that May Affect Future Results

(Cautionary Statements Under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995)

Certain information included in this Form 10-Q and other materials filed or to be filed by us with the Securities and Exchange Commission (as well as information included in oral statements or other written statements made or to be made by us or our representatives) contains or may contain 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. These statements can be identified by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. Statements that include the words “may,” “could,” “should,” “would,” “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “intend,” “plan,” or other words or expressions of similar meaning, may identify forward-looking statements. We have based these forward-looking statements on our current expectations about future events. Forward-looking statements include statements that reflect management’s beliefs, plans, objectives, goals, expectations, anticipations, intentions with respect to the financial condition, results of operations, future performance and the business of us, including statements relating to our business strategy and our current and future development plans. These statements may also involve other factors which are detailed in the “Risk Factors” and other sections of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended April 30, 2013 and other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Although we believe that the assumptions underlying these forward-looking statements are reasonable, any or all of the forward-looking statements in this report and in any other public statements that are made may prove to be incorrect. This may occur as a result of inaccurate assumptions or as a consequence of known or unknown risks and uncertainties. Many factors discussed in this report will be important in determining our future performance. Consequently, actual results may differ materially from those that might be anticipated from forward-looking statements. In light of these and other uncertainties, you should not regard the inclusion of a forward-looking statement in this report or other public communications that we might make as a representation by us that our plans and objectives will be achieved, and you should not place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements.

We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Any further disclosures made on related subjects in our subsequent reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission should be consulted.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Note 1.  Basis of Presentation

The interim financial information included herein is unaudited. However, the accompanying consolidated financial statements include all adjustments of a normal recurring nature which, in the opinion of management, are necessary to present fairly our Consolidated Balance Sheets at October 31, 2013 and April 30, 2013, Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three and six months ended October 31, 2013 and October 31, 2012, and Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the six months ended October 31, 2013 and October 31, 2012. Although we believe the disclosures in these financial statements are adequate to make the interim information presented not misleading, certain information relating to our organization and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted in this Form 10-Q pursuant to Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules and regulations. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended April 30, 2013 and the notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K. The results of operations for the three and six months ended October 31, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period and disclosure of contingent liabilities. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to bad debts, investments, intangible assets and goodwill, property, plant and equipment, income taxes, employment benefits and contingent liabilities. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Certain reclassifications have been made to conform prior year financial information to the current period presentation. Those reclassifications did not impact working capital, total assets, total liabilities, net income, net loss or stockholders’ equity. We have revised certain statement of cash flow amounts for the six months ended October 31, 2012 from the amounts previously reported in our Form 10-Q quarterly report for the quarterly period ended October 31, 2012.  We corrected the classification of proceeds from credit facilities that we had previously reported as supplemental cash flow information for non-cash financing activities rather than as a direct cash flow provided by financing activities.  The correction increased previously reported net cash provided by financing activities by $1.7 million in the six months ended October 31, 2012, and it reduced previously reported net cash provided by operating activities by an equal amount since the credit facility proceeds were used to prepay our annual slot machine registration fees in South Dakota.  We also corrected the classification of additions to restricted cash that we had previously reported as cash flow from investing activities rather than as cash flow from operating activities.  Refer to Note 3 for the nature of restricted cash.  This correction increased previously reported net cash provided by investing activities by $262,151 in the six months ended October 31, 2012, and it reduced previously reported net cash provided by operating activities by an equal amount.  We assessed the materiality of the corrections and concluded that the corrections were not material to any of our previously issued financial statements.  The correction did not affect net revenues, operating income, income before income tax, or working capital for any period.

Note 2.  Critical Accounting Policies

Revenue Recognition 

We record revenues on the accrual basis as earned. The retail value of food and beverage and other services furnished to guests without charge is included in gross revenue and deducted as promotional allowances. Net revenues do not include the retail amount of food, beverage and other items provided gratuitously to customers. We record the redemption of coupons and points for cash as a reduction of revenue as they are earned. These amounts are included in promotional allowances in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. The estimated cost of providing such complimentary services included in casino expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations was as follows:

Total cost of complimentary services	$	814,509	$	867,867	$	1,617,989	$	1,815,564

Fair Value and Concentrations of Credit Risk 

The U. S. generally accepted accounting principles defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset, or paid to transfer a liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date and establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurements.The valuation hierarchy categorizes assets and liabilities measured at fair value into one of three different levels depending on the observability of the inputs employed in the measurement.The three levels are as follows:

Level 1 – Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.

Level 2 – Other inputs that are observable directly or indirectly such as quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs which are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data and which we make our own assumptions about how market participants would price the assets and liabilities.

The following describes the valuation methodologies used by us to measure fair value:

Real estate held for sale is recorded at fair value and tested for impairment annually, or more frequently, using third party valuations.

Goodwill and indefinite lived intangible assets are recorded at carrying value and tested for impairment annually, or more frequently, using projections of undiscounted future cash flows.

The recorded value of cash, accounts receivable and payable approximate fair value based on their short term nature. The recorded value of long term debt approximates fair value as interest rates approximate market rates.

Financial instruments that potentially subject us to concentrations of credit risk are primarily notes receivable, cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and payable, and long term debt. As of October 31, 2013 we had three notes receivable, as well as the BVD/BVO receivable, outstanding. Two of these notes were issued in connection with a potential gaming project and one is for the sale of the Colorado Grande Casino. Management performs periodic evaluations of the collectability of these notes. Our cash deposits are held with large, well-known financial institutions, and, at times, such deposits may be in excess of the federally insured limit. The recorded value of cash, accounts receivable and payable, approximate fair value based on their short term nature; the recorded value of long term debt approximates fair value as interest rates approximate current market rates.

New Accounting Pronouncements and Legislation Issued

Since the filing of our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2013, there are no new accounting standards effective which are material to our financial statements or that are required to be adopted by the Company.

Note 3. Restricted Cash

As of October 31, 2013 and April 30, 2013, we maintained approximately $1.3 million and $1.3 million, respectively, in restricted cash, which consists of player-supported jackpot funds. Player-supported jackpot is a progressive game of chance directly related to the play or outcome of an authorized non-house-banked card game separately funded by our patrons. Any jackpots hit in these card games are paid from such reserved funds.

Note 4.  Notes Receivable and BVD/BVO Receivable

Notes Receivable

G Investments, LLC

Upon completion of the sale of the Colorado Grande Casino on May 25, 2012, we recorded a $2.3 million note receivable.This note bears interest at 6% per annum through the maturity date of June 1, 2017 and is secured with all of the assets of the Colorado Grande Casino, pledge of membership interest in G Investments, LLC (“GI”), and a personal guaranty by GI’s principal.

Principal and interest payments are scheduled to be made as follows:

·No monthly installments of principal and accrued interest shall be due and payable for three months following the sale date of May 25, 2012;

·One monthly installment of principal and accrued interest of $5,000 on September 1, 2012;

·Beginning October 1, 2012, eight monthly installments of principal and accrued interest of $20,000;

·Beginning June 1, 2013, twelve monthly installments of principal and accrued interest of $30,000;

·Beginning June 1, 2014, thirty six monthly installments of principal and accrued interest of $40,000; and

·A final installment of $907,061 which is due on the maturity date of June 1, 2017.

Since the inception of this note we have collected $315,000 which consists of $127,066 of principal plus $187,934 of interest.

Big City Capital, LLC

At October 31, 2013 and April 30, 2013, our balance sheet reflects net notes receivable of $0, net of a $3.2 million valuation allowance, related to the development of gaming/entertainment projects from Big City Capital, LLC (“Big City Capital”).These notes receivable have a maturity date of December 31, 2014.On a quarterly basis, we review each of our notes receivable to evaluate whether collection is still probable. During prior fiscal years we determined that our ability to collect these notes receivable and related accrued interest had been impaired. As a result, given the prevailing very challenging capital market conditions and continued uncertainties as to the economy, and based upon our “Level 3” analysis, we recorded $3.2 million of valuation allowances and wrote off the accrued interest.

BVD/BVO Receivable

At October 31, 2013 and April 30, 2013, our balance sheet reflects a net receivable of $0, net of a $4.6 million valuation allowance, related to the development of gaming/entertainment projects from B. V. Oro, LLC (“BVO”). On a quarterly basis, we review each of our receivables to evaluate whether collection is still probable. During a prior fiscal year we determined that our ability to collect this receivable and related accrued interest had been impaired. As a result, given the prevailing very challenging capital market conditions and continued uncertainties as to the economy, and based upon our “Level 3” analysis, we recorded a $4.6 million valuation allowance for the total principal and interest due.

In December 2013, the Company used $1,170,000 of cash to pay down long-term debt that existed as of October 31, 2013. Effective December 18, 2013, the Company refinanced the remaining $12,750,000 of its long-term debt that existed at October 31, 2013. Current portion of long-term debt includes the $1,170,000 cash payment discussed above and scheduled payments due by October 31, 2014 for the new financing. See Note 17 for additional information.

On June 26, 2013, we obtained a $1.5 million revolving loan from Wells Fargo Gaming Capital, LLC to pay a slot machine registration fee due to the South Dakota Commission on Gaming by June 30 of each year.The loan matures on March 31, 2014 and bears an annual interest rate of the base rate, which equals the greater of (a) 2.5%, (b) the Federal Reserve rate plus 1/2%, (c) the LIBOR plus 1% or (d) the prime rate charged by Well Fargo Bank, N.A., plus the margin rate of 3.5%.The terms of the loan requires South Dakota Gold to make amortization payments in order to reduce a large portion of the principal balance through October 31, 2013.The repayment of the loan is secured by the assets of South Dakota Gold and NG South Dakota, LLC, while we and NG South Dakota, LLC serve as the guarantors.With this loan, we incurred $25,000 of deferred loan issue costs which are amortizable over the life of the loan.

On May 31, 2012, following the closing of the sale of the Colorado Grande Casino we repaid $800,000 of the $4 million debt due on June 30, 2015 from the cash proceeds of the sale price paid to us at closing.Pursuant to the terms of the $4 million loan, we are required to remit all principal and interest payments received pursuant to the $2.3 million note receivable issued to us by the buyer of the Colorado Grande Casino towards further reduction of the principal of the $4 million debt.

Note 6.  Stock-Based Compensation

Information about our share-based plans

We have obligations under two employee stock plans: (1) the 2009 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2009 Plan”), and (2) the 2010 Employee Stock Purchase Plan, as amended (the “2010 Plan”).

The 2009 Plan

On April 14, 2009, our shareholders approved the 2009 Plan providing for the granting of awards to our directors, officers, employees and independent contractors.The number of common stock shares reserved for issuance under the 2009 Plan is 1,750,000 shares.The plan is administered by the Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) of the Board of Directors. The Committee has complete discretion under the plan regarding the vesting and service requirements, exercise price and other conditions. Under the 2009 Plan, the Committee is authorized to grant the following types of awards:

·Stock Options including Incentive Stock Options (“ISO”),

8

·Options not intended to qualify as ISOs,

·Stock Appreciation Rights, and

·Restricted Stock Grants.

To date, the Committee has only awarded stock options for stock-based compensation. Our practice has been to issue new or treasury shares upon the exercise of stock options. Stock option rights granted under the 2009 Plan generally have 5 or 10 year terms and vest in two or three equal annual installments, with some options grants providing for immediate vesting for a portion of the grant.

A summary of activity under our share-based payment plans for the six months ended October 31, 2013 is presented below:

					Weighted
			Weighted		Average
			Average		Remaining
			Exercise		Contractual
	Shares		Price		Term
Outstanding at April 30, 2013		865,000	$	1.08
Granted		-		-
Exercised		(15,000)		0.71
Forfeited or expired		-		-
Outstanding at October 31, 2013		850,000	$	1.09		7.6
Exercisable at October 31, 2013		716,667	$	1.14		7.3

As of October 31, 2013, there was a total of $67,837 of unamortized compensation related to stock options, which cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average of approximately 1.25 years.

Compensation cost for stock options granted will be based on the fair value of each award, measured by applying the Black-Scholes model on the date of grant and using the weighted-average assumptions of (i) expected volatility, (ii) expected term, (iii) expected dividend yield, (iv) risk-free interest rate and (v) forfeiture rate. Expected volatility is based on historical volatility of our stock. The expected term considers the contractual term of the option as well as historical exercise and forfeiture behavior. The risk-free interest rate is based on the rates in effect on the grant date for U.S. Treasury instruments with maturities matching the relevant expected term of the award.

The 2010 Plan

On October 11, 2010, our shareholders approved the 2010 Plan which permits all our eligible employees, including employees of certain of our subsidiaries, to purchase shares of our common stock through payroll deductions at a purchase price not to be less than 90% of the fair market value of the shares on each purchase date.The number of shares available for issuance under the 2010 Plan is a total of 500,000 shares.  On November 30, 2010, our Board of Directors amended the 2010 Plan, effective December 1, 2010, to allow its participants to contribute up to a maximum of twenty (20%) percent of their paid compensation.The 2010 Plan became available for employee participation on January 1, 2011, employee payroll deductions began in January of 2011, and shares are to be purchased at the end of each calendar quarter.As of October 31, 2013, 330,965 shares were issued to 140 participants under the 2010 Plan.

For the six months ended October 31, 2013 and October 31, 2012, potential dilutive common shares issuable under options of 784,000 and 1,295,000, respectively, were not included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share as they were anti-dilutive.

Note 8.  Segment Reporting  

We have three business segments (i) Washington Gold, (ii) South Dakota Gold, (iii) Corporate and for reporting purposes we includeassets of operations held for sale.

On November 23, 2011, we signed an agreement to sell substantially all of the assets of the Colorado Grande Casino, located in Cripple Creek, Colorado, including any rights in the Colorado Grande name and gaming-related liabilities, to G Investments, LLC (“GI”). Prior to the sale to GI, we leased this property at an annual rent of the greater of $144,000 or 5% of Colorado Grande Casino’s adjusted gross gaming revenues with an annual cap of $400,000. Starting from April 30, 2012, the annual rent was changed to $252,548 with an option by the landlord to revert to the original rent structure upon obtaining necessary approvals from the Colorado Gaming Commission. Although this lease was assigned to GI as a result of the sale of the Colorado Grande Casino, which occurred on May 25, 2012, we retained contingent liability of the tenant’s obligations under this lease through May 24, 2017. We have evaluated financial information provided by GI as of October 31, 2013, and have not recorded an accrual for contingent liability since it appears unlikely that GI will default on their lease obligation.

We continue to pursue additional development opportunities that may require, individually and in the aggregate, significant commitments of capital, extensions of credit, up-front payments to third parties and guarantees by us for third-party debt.

We indemnify our officers and directors for certain events or occurrences while the director or officer is or was serving at our request in such capacity. The maximum potential amount of future payments we could be required to make under these indemnification obligations is unlimited; however, we have a directors and officers liability insurance policy that limits our exposure and enables us to recover a portion of any future amounts paid, provided that such insurance policy provides coverage.

Note 11. Legal Proceedings

We are not currently involved in any material legal proceedings.

Note 12. Acquisitions

South Dakota Gold

On January 27, 2012, through our wholly owned subsidiary, NG South Dakota, LLC, we completed the acquisition of 100% of the shares of South Dakota Gold for $5.1 million. The transaction was financed by $3.2 million in cash, $25,000 in our common stock, and $1.9 million in three promissory notes payable to the sellers, Michael J. Trucano and Patricia Burns.The first promissory note, in the principal amount of $1,425,000, matures on January 27, 2017 and bears an annual interest rate of 6% per annum.Starting February 27, 2012, this note is to be repaid in fifty-nine monthly principal installments of $10,000, plus all accrued and unpaid interest. The remaining balance is due on the maturity date.The second promissory note, in the principal amount of $400,000, bears an imputed annual interest of 6% per annum, matures on January 27, 2017, and is payable in sixty equal monthly installments of $6,667 on the twenty-seventh day of each month, with the first installment being paid in February of 2012. The third promissory note, in the principal amount of $60,324, bears an imputed annual interest of 6% per annum and matured, and was repaid, on January 27, 2013. We acquired this slot route in furtherance of our strategy of being an owner and operator of gaming facilities. The purchase was accounted for as a purchase business combination in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations (“ASC 805”). Goodwill is defined in ASC 805 as the future economic benefits of other assets acquired in a business combination that are not individually identified and separately recognized.Goodwill is attributable to the synergies from the existing customer base, as well as other intangible assets that do not qualify for separate recognition. During fiscal year 2012, closing costs and pre-opening expenses of $1,000 related to the acquisition were included in the consolidated statement of operations in marketing and administrative, legal and other expenses of $108,000 related to the acquisition were reflected separately in the consolidated statement of operations.The summary of the purchase price allocation is as follows:

	(000’s)
Current assets and liabilities, net	$	65
Property and equipment		1,775
Non-compete		251
Customer relationships		1,100
Goodwill		1,936
Purchase price	$	5,127

We reviewed the South Dakota Gold operating results and concluded that pro-forma financial statements were not required due to immateriality.

Note 13.Goodwill and Intangible Assets

In connection with our acquisitions of the Washington mini-casinos on May 12, 2009, July 23, 2010, and July 18, 2011 as well as South Dakota Gold on January 27, 2012 (see Note 12), and expenditures made to obtain our Nevada gaming license, as of October 31, 2013, we have goodwill and intangible assets of $22.4 million, net of amortization.

The change in the carrying amount of goodwill and intangibles assets for the six months ended October 31, 2013 are as follows (in thousands):

The gaming legislation in Washington State is codified in chapter 9.46 of the Revised Code of Washington (“RCW”) which stipulates the Washington State Gambling Commission (the “WA Gambling Commission”) to be the regulator of gambling activities in this state. The WA Gambling Commission enforces its authority through an extensive set of rules and regulations promulgated in Title 230 of the Washington Administrative Code. The state of Washington allows certain gambling activities, such as amusement games, bingo, raffles, punch boards, pull-tabs, card-rooms, and public card games. In order to be considered legal, these activities must be operated by either non-profit organizations or by commercial food and drink establishments. Some activities may be operated solely by non-profit organizations, such as raffles. Some traditional casino games, such as craps, roulette and keno, are prohibited. House-banked card-rooms have been authorized in Washington State since 1997 and, under current law, each establishment is allowed to have up to 15 tables offering games, such as Blackjack, Ultimate Texas Hold’em, Three Card Poker, Four Card Poker, Spanish Poker, Texas Shootout, Spanish 21, Pai Gow Poker, and others. The law allows both player-sponsored and house-banked card-rooms. As of January 1, 2009, the WA Gambling Commission increased the maximum bet for house-banked card-rooms’ table game wager limit to $300 and allowed card-rooms to offer Mini-Baccarat. In addition, these establishments are allowed to be open 24 hours per day, provided they close for at least four continuous hours two times per week. 

15

To operate our ten “mini-casinos” in Washington State, each of them is required to maintain a Public Card-room and Punch Board/Pull-Tab Commercial Stimulant license. These licenses are renewable annually, subject to continued compliance with applicable gaming regulations. In addition, the WA Gambling Commission requires, prior to the licenses being issued, each substantial interest holder in the licensees (including our officers, directors and owners of 5% percent or more of any class of our stock) to submit to the WA Gambling Commission certain disclosure forms and be subject to background investigations. The failure or inability of our “mini-casinos” to maintain their respective licenses would have a material adverse effect on our operations.

Revised Code of Washington (“RCW”) 9.46.110 allows local governments (including cities, counties and towns) to prohibit any or all gambling activities for which licenses are required as well as tax such activities. The maximum tax limitations imposed by law include 20% of gross receipts for public card-room games and either 5% of gross receipts or 10% of net receipt (as chosen by a local authority) for pull-tabs activities. The current gaming tax rate for public card-room games in the cities of Pasco, Mountlake Terrace, Kennewick, SeaTac, Renton, Tukwila and Shoreline, as well as in Snohomish County, is 10% of table games gross receipts.The current gaming tax rate for pull-tabs in the city of Kennewick is 10% of pull-tabs net receipts, while in the cities of Pasco, Mountlake Terrace, SeaTac, Renton, Tukwila and Shoreline, as well as in Snohomish County, the tax rate is 5% of pull-tabs gross receipts. In addition, Washington State charges a business and occupational tax in the amount of 1.63% of all gaming activities’ net receipts in order to promote responsible gaming. 

South Dakota

Gaming in South Dakota began in November 1989 and is presently authorized within the City of Deadwood.The gaming legislation is codified in Chapter 42-7B of the South Dakota Codified Laws as well as Article 20:18 of the South Dakota Legislature Administrative Rules (collectively, the “SD Regulations”) and is regulated by the South Dakota Commission on Gaming (the “SD Gaming Commission”).The SD Regulations allow gambling activities to be conducted at bars and taverns, including slot machines and limited card games, such as Blackjack and Poker.The SD Regulations limit each licensed location to have a maximum of 30 slot machines.The current tax rate is 9% of the adjusted gross gaming revenues in addition to an annual fee of $2,000 for each licensed gaming device located in a licensed location.In order to operate our slot route business in this state, we are required to hold Operator and Route Operator licenses issued by the SD Gaming Commission.

The SD Regulations require that every officer and director, as well as any stockholder holding 5% or greater ownership in a company involved with the conduct of gaming in the state to be a person of good moral character and must submit to a full background investigation conducted by the SD Gaming Commission. Our gaming licenses may be suspended or revoked for any cause which may have prevented their issuance, or for violation by us, or any of our officers, directors, agents, members or employees, of the SD Regulations or for conviction of a crime of moral turpitude or a felony.In addition to the revocation or suspension or in lieu of revocation or suspension, the SD Gaming Commission may impose a reprimand or a monetary penalty.

Colorado

Upon the sale of the Colorado Grande Casino to G Investments, LLC on May 25, 2012, we surrendered our license to operate the Colorado Grande Casino and are no longer subject to the provisions of the Act and the regulations promulgated thereunder.

Nevada

Upon the recommendation of the Nevada Gaming Control Board (the “NV Gaming Board”), on January 26, 2012, the Nevada Gaming Commission (the “NV Gaming Commission” and, collectively with the NV Gaming Board, the “NV Gaming Authorities”) approved our application for registration as a publicly-traded corporation submitted in connection with an acquisition of a 1% interest in The Nugget, a non-restricted gaming licensee located in Reno, NV, by our wholly-owned subsidiary, Nevada Gold Speedway, LLC (“NG Speedway”).Our acquisition of equity in the Nugget required us to file the application. In connection therewith, we, NG Speedway, and certain of our key employees and directors were found suitable by the NV Gaming Authorities.We took this action to accelerate future Nevada acquisitions or management contracts.In May 2013, as permitted by the agreement, the Heaney Trust exercised its right to repurchase our 1% ownership of The Nugget for $1,000.As a result we were licensed in Nevada and remain registered with the Nevada Gaming Control Board as a publicly traded corporation that has been found suitable.

The ownership and operation of gaming establishments in the State of Nevada are subject to the Nevada Gaming Control Act and the regulations promulgated thereunder (collectively, the “NGCA”).A finding of suitability is comparable to licensing and it requires submission of detailed personal and financial information followed by a thorough investigation.A finding of unsuitability with respect to any officer, director, employee, associate, lender or beneficial owner of a licensee or applicant may jeopardize an already issued license or applicant’s license application.Licenses may be conditioned upon termination of any relationship with unsuitable persons.

16

Although any beneficial holder of our voting securities, regardless of the number of shares owned, may be required to file an application for a finding of suitability, the general rule provides that beneficial owners of more than 10% of any class of our voting securities must apply to the NV Gaming Authorities for a finding of suitability. Under certain circumstances, an “institutional investor” (as defined in the NGCA) who acquires more than 10% but not more than 25% of any class of our voting securities, may apply to the NV Gaming Authorities for a waiver of such finding of suitability if such institutional investor holds the voting securities for investment purposes only.An institutional investor that has obtained a waiver may, in certain circumstances, own up to 29% of the voting securities of a registered company for a limited period of time and maintain the waiver.Any person who fails or refuses to apply for a finding of suitability or a license within 30 days after being ordered to do so by the NV Gaming Authorities, or who refuses or fails to pay the investigative costs in connection with investigation of its application, may be found unsuitable.The same restrictions apply to a record owner if the record owner, after request, fails to identify the beneficial owner.Any shareholder found unsuitable and who holds, directly or indirectly, any beneficial ownership of our common stock beyond such period of time as may be prescribed by the NV Gaming Authorities may be guilty of a criminal offense.We and NG Speedway would be subject to disciplinary action if, after receipt of notice that a person is unsuitable, we:

•pay such a person any dividend or interest upon any of our voting securities;

•allow such a person to exercise, directly or indirectly, any voting right conferred through securities held by that person;

•pay remuneration in any form to such a person for services rendered or otherwise; or

•fail to pursue all lawful efforts to require such unsuitable person to relinquish his or her voting securities including, if necessary, the immediate purchase of the voting securities for cash at fair market value.

Corporations registered with the NV Gaming Commission may not make a public offering of any securities without the prior approval of the NV Gaming Authorities if the securities or the proceeds therefrom are intended to be used to construct, acquire, or finance gaming facilities in the State of Nevada, or to retire or extend obligations incurred for those purposes or for similar purposes.An approval, if given, does not constitute a finding, recommendation, or approval by the NV Gaming Authorities as to the accuracy or adequacy of the prospectus or the investment merits of the securities, and any representation to the contrary is unlawful.

Because we are involved in gaming activities outside the State of Nevada, we are required to deposit with the NV Gaming Board, and thereafter maintain, a revolving fund in the amount of $10,000 to pay for the expenses of investigation by the NV Gaming Board of our participation in gaming in other jurisdictions.The revolving fund is subject to increase or decrease at the discretion of the NV Gaming Commission.Upon our registration and finding of suitability, we are also required to comply with certain other requirements imposed by the NGCA, including reporting requirements.

We currently do not operate any gaming establishment in the State of Nevada.

Note 15. Impairment of Assets

Long-lived assets, including property, plant and equipment and amortizable intangible assets, comprise a significant portion of our total assets. We evaluate the carrying value of long-lived assets when impairment indicators exist or when circumstances indicate that impairment may exist under authoritative guidance. When management believes impairment indicators may exist, projections of the undiscounted future cash flows associated with the use of and eventual disposition of long-lived assets held for use are prepared. If the projections indicate that the carrying values of the long-lived assets are not recoverable, we reduce the carrying values to fair value. For long-lived assets held for sale, we compare the carrying values to an estimate of fair value less selling costs to determine potential impairment. We test for impairment of long-lived assets at the lowest level for which cash flows are measurable. These impairment tests are heavily influenced by assumptions and estimates that are subject to change as additional information becomes available. Our evaluation of the carrying value of our long-lived assets for sale indicates that we have no further impairment. This fair value measurement uses level 3 inputs under the fair value hierarchy.

On a quarterly basis, we review each of our notes receivable to evaluate whether the collection of our notes receivable and receivables are still probable. In our analysis, we review the economic feasibility and the current financial, legislative and development status of the project. If our analysis indicates that the project is no longer economically feasible, the note receivable will be written down to its estimated fair value.This fair value measurement uses level 3 inputs under the fair value hierarchy.

At October 31, 2013 and April 30, 2013, our balance sheet reflects notes receivable related to Big City Capital of $0, net of a $3.2 million allowance related to the development of gaming/entertainment projects from Big City Capital.During fiscal year ended April 30, 2008, we determined that our ability to collect $859,000 of accrued interest and $1.5 million of the original $3.2 million notes receivable from Big City Capital, LLC (“Big City Capital”) had been impaired. As a result we wrote down the notes receivable to $1.7 million, by establishing a $1.5 million allowance, and we wrote off the accrued interest. At April 30, 2012, we determined our ability to collect the remaining $1.7 million is doubtful and therefore increased the valuation allowance to $3.2 million. These notes receivable have a maturity date of December 31, 2014.

At October 31, 2013 and April 30, 2013, our balance sheet reflects a receivable related to BVO of $0, net of a $4.6 million allowance.In the period ending April 30, 2012, we determined our ability to collect the $4.6 million BVO Receivable and its accrued interest was doubtful.Therefore we established a $4.6 million valuation allowance against its principal and interest due.

Note 16. Stock Offering

On November 7, 2011, we closed on the sale of 2,625,652 shares of our common stock at a price of $1.65 per share to certain investors through a registered direct offering for the total proceeds of approximately $4.3 million, net of offering costs of approximately $444,000.In addition, for each share of our common stock purchased by an investor, we issued to such investor a warrant to purchase 0.75 shares of our common stock. The warrants have an exercise price of $2.18 per share and are exercisable for five years from the initial exercise date, which date is six months from the date of their issuance.The warrants expire on May 7, 2017. The proceeds of the offering were used to assist us in the $5.1 million acquisition of South Dakota Gold.

Note 17. Subsequent Event

On December 18, 2013, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries entered into a new $12,750,000 Reducing Revolving Credit Agreement with Mutual of Omaha Bank (the “Credit Facility”). The Credit Facility and $1,170,000 of the Company’s cash were utilized to pay down all of the Company’s outstanding long term debt obligations that existed at October 31, 2013 (see Note 5). The maturity date of the Credit Facility is December 10, 2018, and is secured by liens on substantially all of the real and personal property of the Company and its subsidiaries. The interest rate on the borrowing is based on LIBOR plus an Applicable Margin, which will be determined quarterly, based on the total leverage ratio for the trailing twelve month period. The initial Applicable Margin is 5.00% until July 1, 2014, when the first quarterly pricing change will take effect. In addition, the Company is required to fix the interest rate on at least 50% of the borrowing through a swap agreement.

Scheduled principle payments on the Credit Facility for each of the next five years and thereafter as of October 31, 2013 are as follows:

November 1, 2013 – October 31, 2014	$	1,200,000
November 1, 2014 – October 31, 2015	$	1,675,000
November 1, 2015 – October 31, 2016	$	1,775,000
November 1, 2016 – October 31, 2017	$	1,875,000
November 1, 2017 – October 31, 2018	$	1,975,000
Thereafter	$	4,250,000

The Credit Facility contains customary covenants for a facility of this nature, including, but not limited to, covenants requiring the preservation and maintenance of the Company’s assets and covenants restricting our ability to merge, transfer ownership, incur additional indebtedness, encumber assets and make certain investments. The Credit Facility also contains covenants requiring the Company to maintain certain financial ratios, such as a minimum total leverage ratio ranging from 3.00 to 1.00 through July 1, 2015, 2.50 to 1.00 from August 1, 2015 through July 31, 2017, and 2.00 to 1.00 from August 1, 2017 until maturity; and lease adjusted fixed charge coverage ratio no less than 1.15 to 1.00.

The Company evaluated the refinancing transaction in accordance with the accounting standards for debt modifications and extinguishments and evaluated the refinancing transaction on a lender by lender basis. As a result of this evaluation, the Company concluded the refinancing was an extinguishment of debt and will recognize a loss on debt extinguishment of $313,000 representing the write-off of unamortized debt issuance costs in the third quarter ending January 31, 2014. In connection with the refinancing transaction, the Company paid $451,000 in fees and other costs which will be capitalized and included in other assets on the consolidated balance sheet.

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

The following discussion and analysis (“MD&A”) should be read in conjunction with our Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto included in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report and with Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contained in our Annual Report for the year ended April 30, 2013, filed on Form 10-K with the SEC on July 29, 2013.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our consolidated financial statements. We prepare these financial statements in conformity with GAAP. As such, we are required to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods presented. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates; however, actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. There have been no material changes or developments in our evaluation of the accounting estimates and the underlying assumptions or methodologies that we believe to be Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates as disclosed in our Annual Report for the year ended April 30, 2013, filed on Form 10-K with the SEC on July 29, 2013.

Executive Overview

We were formed in 1977 and, since 1994, have primarily been a gaming company involved in financing, developing, owning and operating gaming properties. Our gaming facility operations are located in the United States of America (“U.S.”), specifically in the states of Washington and South Dakota.Our business strategy will continue to focus on owning and operating gaming establishments. If we are successful, our future revenues, costs and profitability can be expected to increase. However, there is no guarantee that we will be successful in implementing our business strategy in the future and, as such, no guarantee that our future revenues, costs and profitability will increase. Our net revenues were $16.3 million and $16.4 million for the three months ended October 31, 2013 and October 31, 2012, respectively.

When compared to the three months ended October 31, 2012, the three month period ended October 31, 2013 was impacted by the following items:

- Reduced operating expenses due to the severance accruals and write-off of project development costs during the quarter ended October 31, 2012; and

- Decreased net interest expense.

COMPARISON OF THE THREE MONTHS ENDED OCTOBER 31, 2013 AND OCTOBER 31, 2012

Net revenues. Net revenues year over year were flat for all revenue reporting categories at $16.3 million versus $16.4 million, for the three month period ended October 31, 2013, compared to the same period ended October 31, 2012.

Total operating expenses. Total operating expenses decreased 6.4%, to $15.6 million from $16.7 million, for the three month period ended October 31, 2013, compared to the same period ended October 31, 2012.Casino, marketing and administrative, depreciation and amortization and, other expenses remained consistent.Food and beverage expenses increased $0.1 million, or 8.8%, primarily due to increased payroll benefit costs.Facility expenses decreased $0.1 million, or 13.8%, as a result of reduced operating supplies, payroll and related benefit costs.Corporate expenses decreased $0.9 million, or 61%, as a result of last year recording $0.7 million of severance accruals for the former CEO and other Houston employees and a $0.3 million write-off of project development costs versus a $0.1 million write-off of project development costs in the current year.

18

Interest income (expense) Interest expense decreased 12.2 %, or $48,000, for the three month period ended October 31, 2013, compared to the three month period ended October 31, 2012. The decrease is due to the reduction of outstanding debt since October 31, 2012. Interest income increased $34,000 for the three month period ended October 31, 2013, compared to the three month period ended October 31, 2012, which was related to the the G Investments, LLC note receivable (See Note 4 of our Consolidated Financial Statements).Amortization of loan issue cost was $88,037 and $85,082 for the three month periods ended October 31, 2013 and October 31, 2012, respectively.

Income Taxes. The effective tax benefit rate for the three month period ended October 31, 2013 and October 31, 2012, were 34.16% and 13.74%, respectively, compared to the federal statutory rate of 34%. The prior year rate was primarily due to the write-off of deferred tax assets that corresponded to stock options that expired or were forfeited.

Net income (loss). Net income from continuing operations was $0.2 million compared to a net loss of $0.7 million for the three month periods ended October 31, 2013 and October 31, 2012, respectively. The improvement is primarily a result of the $0.7 million severance accruals and the $0.3 million write-off of project development costs recorded in the period ending October 31, 2012.

COMPARISON OF THE SIX MONTHS ENDED OCTOBER 31, 2013 AND OCTOBER 31, 2012

Net revenues. Net revenues decreased 3.5%, to $32.0 million from $33.2 million, for the six month period ended October 31, 2013 compared to the six month period ended October 31, 2012. Casino revenues decreased 3.5%, or $1.0 million, due to decreased drop at our Washington properties due to abnormally dry weather conditions in the Seattle market during the first quarter of fiscal year 2014 compared to abnormally wet weather conditions during the first quarter of fiscal year 2013.Food and beverage and other revenues also decreased $0.2 million and $0.1million, respectively, due to the Seattle weather conditions.In an effort to maintain revenues and market sharepromotional allowances only decreased $0.1 million.

Total operating expenses. Total operating expenses decreased 4.6% to $31.2 million from $32.8 million, for the six month period ended October 31, 2013, compared to the six month period ended October 31, 2012.Casino, marketing and administrative, depreciation and amortization and other expenses remained consistent. Food and beverage increased $0.1 million, or 5.7%, primarily due to increased payroll benefit costs. Facility expenses decreased $0.1 million or 12.9% primarily due to reduced operating supplies, payroll and related benefit costs. Corporate expenses decreased $1.2 million, or 50.0%, primarily as a result ofthe recording of $0.7 million severance accrual for the former CEO and other Houston office employees and, the $0.3 million write-off of development costs during the six months ended October 31, 2012.The remaining decreases were primarily due to the cost reduction program put into place beginning the third quarter of fiscal 2013.

Interest expense. Interest expense decreased 10.2 %, or $80,000, for the six month period ended October 31, 2013 compared to the six month period ended October 31, 2012. The decrease is primarily due to adecrease in outstanding debt. Amortization of loan issue costs was $166,000 and $163,000 for the six month periods ended October 31, 2013 and October 31, 2012, respectively.

Income Taxes. The effective tax benefit rate for the six months period ended October 31, 2013 and October 31, 2012 were 112.70% and 3.7%, respectively.The rate for this period was lower than the federal statutory rate of 34% primarily due to the amortization of stock options while the prior year rate was primarily due to the write-off of deferred tax assets that correspond to stock options that expired or were forfeited.

Net income (loss). Net income (loss) from continuing operations was $0.0 million and $(0.7) million for the six month periods ended October 31, 2013 and October 31, 2012, respectively. The increase of $0.7 million is primarily due to the decline in net revenues offset by the reduced facility expenses described above and the $0.7 million after tax impact of the severance accruals and write-off of project development costs recorded in the six month period ended October 31, 2012.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The term “adjusted EBITDA” is used by us in presentations, quarterly earnings calls, and other instances as appropriate.Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, non-cash goodwill and other long-lived asset impairment charges, write-offs of project development costs, litigation charges, non-cash stock option grants, exclusion of net income or loss from operations held for sale, and net losses/gains from asset dispositions. Adjusted EBITDA excludes the impact of slot and table games hold percentages compared to the prior year.Adjusted EBITDA is presented because it is a required component of financial ratios reported by us to our lenders, and it is also frequently used by securities analysts, investors, and other interested parties, in addition to and not in lieu of GAAP results to compare to the performance of other companies who also publicize this information.

Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income as an indicator of our operating performance or any other measure of performance derived in accordance with GAAP.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Historical Cash Flows

The following table sets forth our consolidated net cash provided by (used in) operating, investing and financing activities for the six month periods ended October 31, 2013 and October 31, 2012:

	Six Months Ended
	October 31,		October 31,
	2013		2012
Net cash provided by (used in):
Operating activities	$	519,392	$	1,150,325
Investing activities		(132,315)		432,905
Financing activities		(266,560)		(914,643)

Operating activities. Net cash provided by operating activities during the six month period ended October 31, 2013 decreased by $0.6 million over the comparable period in the prior fiscal year. This decrease mainly resulted from a net $1.4 million use of cash to purchase operating assets and pay down operating liabilities, a net $0.2 million reduction of project development cost write-offs, offset by $0.7 million improved net income, a $0.3 million net change in restricted cash.

Investing activities. Net cash used in investing activities during the six month period ended October 31, 2013 increased to $0.1 million compared to net cash provided by of $0.4 million for the comparable period in the prior fiscal year. The decrease of funds provided is primarily due to the $0.8 million proceeds from the Colorado Grande Casino sale which occurred in the prior fiscal year.

Financing activities.Net cash used in financing activities during the six month period ended October 31, 2013 decreased $0.6 million from the comparable period in the prior fiscal year. The decrease is primarily attributable to $0.9 million less repayment of debt offset by $0.2 million less borrowed funds.

Future Sources and Uses of Cash

We expect that our future liquidity and capital requirements will be affected by:

- capital requirements related to future acquisitions;

- cash flow from operations;

- new management contracts;

- working capital requirements;

- obtainingdebt financing; and

- debt service requirements.

At October 31, 2013, outstanding indebtedness was $13.9 million, of which $2.4 million is due by October 31, 2014. On October 7, 2011, we closed on an $11.0 million loan with Wells Fargo Gaming Capital, LLC. The proceeds were used to refinance debt and pay fees associated with the loan.

On December 18, 2013, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries entered into a new $12,750,000 Reducing Revolving Credit Agreement with Mutual of Omaha Bank (the “Credit Facility”). The Credit Facility and $1,170,000 of the Company’s cash were utilized to pay down all of the Company’s outstanding long term debt obligations that existed at October 31, 2013 (see Note 5). The maturity date of the Credit Facility is December 10, 2018, and is secured by liens on substantially all of the real and personal property of the Company and its subsidiaries. The interest rate on the borrowing is based on LIBOR plus an Applicable Margin, which will be determined quarterly, based on the total leverage ratio for the trailing twelve month period. The initial Applicable Margin is 5.00% until July 1, 2014, when the first quarterly pricing change will take effect. In addition, the Company is required to fix the interest rate on at least 50% of the borrowing through a swap agreement.

Scheduled principle payments on the Credit Facility for each of the next five years and thereafter as of October 31, 2013 are as follows:

November 1, 2013 – October 31, 2014	$	1,200,000
November 1, 2014 – October 31, 2015	$	1,675,000
November 1, 2015 – October 31, 2016	$	1,775,000
November 1, 2016 – October 31, 2017	$	1,875,000
November 1, 2017 – October 31, 2018	$	1,975,000
Thereafter	$	4,250,000

The Credit Facility contains customary covenants for a facility of this nature, including, but not limited to, covenants requiring the preservation and maintenance of the Company’s assets and covenants restricting our ability to merge, transfer ownership, incur additional indebtedness, encumber assets and make certain investments. The Credit Facility also contains covenants requiring the Company to maintain certain financial ratios, such as a minimum total leverage ratio ranging from 3.00 to 1.00 through July 31, 2015, 2.50 to 1.00 from August 1, 2015 through July 31, 2017, and 2.00 to 1.00 from August 1, 2017 until maturity; and lease adjusted fixed charge coverage ratio no less than 1.15 to 1.00.
 
The Company evaluated the refinancing transaction in accordance with the accounting standards for debt modifications and extinguishments and evaluated the refinancing transaction on a lender by lender basis. As a result of this evaluation, the Company concluded the refinancing was an extinguishment of debt and will recognize a loss on debt extinguishment of $313,000 representing the write-off of unamortized debt issuance costs in the third quarter ending January 31, 2014. In connection with the refinancing transaction, the Company paid $451,000 in fees and other costs which will be capitalized and included in other assets on the consolidated balance sheet.  

The 268 acres of vacant land in Black Hawk, Colorado is currently held for sale. If the acreage is sold, we will use the proceeds to reduce debt.On October 31, 2011, we took an impairment charge of $2.3 million on this land thereby writing it down to the estimated value of $1.1 million.

On October 31, 2013, excluding restricted cash of $1.3 million, we had cash and cash equivalents of $6.8 million. The restricted cash consists of approximately $1.3 million of player supported jackpots.

Our Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared assuming that we will have adequate availability of cash resources to satisfy our liabilities in the normal course of business. We have made, and are in the process of making, arrangements to ensure that we have sufficient working capital to fund our obligations as they come due. These potential funding transactions include divesting of non-core assets and obtaining long-term financing. We believe that some or all of these sources of funds will be funded in a timely manner and will provide sufficient working capital for us to meet our obligations as they come due; however, there can be no assurance that we will be successful in divesting of the non-core assets or achieving the desired level of working capital at terms that are favorable to us. Should cash resources not be sufficient to meet our current obligations as they come due, repay or refinance our long-term debt, and acquire operations that generate positive cash flow, we would be required to curtail our activities and grow at a pace that cash resources could support which may require a restructuring of our debt or selling core assets.

Liquidity

The current ratio is an indication of a company’s market liquidity and ability to meet creditor’s demands. Acceptable current ratios vary from industry to industry and are generally between 1.25 and 3.0 for healthy businesses. If a company’s current ratio is in this range, then it generally indicates good short-term financial strength. If current liabilities exceed current assets (the current ratio is below 1), then the company may have problems meeting its short-term obligations. If the current ratio is too high, then the company may not be efficiently using its current assets or its short-term financing facilities. This may also indicate problems in working capital management.The table below shows that, as of October 31, 2013, we have a 1.7 working capital ratio. 

		Current Ratio as of  October 31, 2013
Current Ratio	Current Assets	$	10,326,904	1.7
	Current Liabilities	$	5,937,519
