EXHIBIT 99.2 UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The following unaudited pro forma condensed financial statements are based upon our historical consolidated financial statements and those of Grand Casinos, Inc. ("Grand") and Caesars World, Inc. ("Caesars"). You should read this pro forma financial information in connection with the historical financial statements included herein or previously filed. With respect to our merger with Grand and as further described in the accompanying footnotes, the unaudited pro forma condensed statement of income for the year ended December 31, 1998, gives effect to: - our merger with Grand applying the purchase method of accounting; and - adjustments that are directly attributable to the Grand merger and are anticipated to have a continuing impact. The pro forma condensed statement of income reflecting our merger with Grand assumes the merger was consummated on January 1, 1998. With respect to the proposed acquisition of Caesars, the unaudited pro forma condensed statements of income for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 and the year ended December 31, 1998 give effect to: - our acquisition of Caesars applying the purchase method of accounting; and - adjustments that are directly attributable to the acquisition and anticipated to have a continuing impact. The pro forma condensed statements of income reflecting the acquisition assume we completed the Caesars' acquisition on January 1, 1998. The unaudited pro forma condensed balance sheet presents our combined financial position with Grand and Caesars as of September 30, 1999. The unaudited pro forma condensed balance sheet reflects the acquisition of Caesars applying the purchase method of accounting and adjustments that are directly attributable to the acquisition and anticipated to have a continuing impact. The pro forma condensed balance sheet assumes we completed the Caesars' acquisition as of September 30, 1999. We have prepared the unaudited pro forma condensed financial statements based upon currently available information and assumptions that we have deemed appropriate. This pro forma information may not be indicative of what actual results would have been, nor does the data purport to represent our and Caesars' combined financial results for future periods. For the purpose of preparing these pro forma financial statements, we will undertake a study to establish the fair value of the acquired assets and liabilities of Caesars. The allocation of the purchase price to the assets and liabilities acquired reflected in this pro forma financial data is preliminary. Accordingly, the actual financial position and results of operations may differ from these pro forma amounts. The following table sets forth the calculation of the purchase price of Caesars and the preliminary allocation as of September 30, 1999. (IN MILLIONS) ------------- Purchase Price................................................................... $ 3,000 Other adjustments, net...........................................................

(b) Reflects the elimination of the transaction costs associated with our spin-off from Hilton and our merger with Grand. (c) Reflects the adjustment to depreciation expense due to the revaluation of the acquired property and equipment resulting from the allocation of the purchase price of Caesars. This adjustment also reflects the increase in expense due to amortization of goodwill arising from our purchase of Caesars. Goodwill is to be amortized over 40 years. (d) Reflects the elimination of the amortization of Caesars' historical goodwill. (e) Reflects the elimination of the intercompany management fee charged by Starwood. (f) Reflects additional interest expense, including amortization of related deferred finance charges, arising from expected borrowings incurred by us to fund the purchase of Caesars. We expect to fund the acquisition with borrowings under our revolving credit facilities. The pro forma effects of borrowings under the revolving credit facilities, future note offerings and the old notes have been computed at a rate of 7.8%. Each 1/8% change in the rate on the borrowings would result in a change in interest expense of $4 million for the year. (g) Reflects the elimination of the interest expense on the Caesars World, Inc. loans due to parent and affiliates. (h) Reflects the tax effect of the pro forma adjustments using the statutory rate of 35%, with the exception of the amortization of goodwill, which is assumed to be non-deductible for tax purposes.
