GLOBAL CASINOS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2005
(UNAUDITED)

1.        Organization and Consolidation

The Consolidated Financial Statements for the three months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004, have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies described in the Company's annual report on Form 10-KSB. Management believes the statements include all adjustments of a normal recurring nature necessary to present fairly the results of operations for the interim periods.

Global Casinos, Inc. (the "Company" or "Global"), a Utah corporation, develops and operates gaming casinos. The consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts of its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. As of September 30, 2005, the Company's only operating subsidiary was:

CASINOS USA, INC. ("Casinos USA"), a Colorado corporation, which owns and operates the Bull Durham Saloon and Casino ("Bull Durham"), located in the limited stakes gaming district of Black Hawk, Colorado.

2.       Earnings per Common Share

Earnings per share ("EPS") are calculated in accordance with the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 128, Earnings Per Share. SFAS No. 128 requires the Company to report both basic earnings per share, which is based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding, and diluted earnings per share, which is based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding plus all dilutive potential common shares outstanding, except where the effect of their inclusion would be anti-dilutive. 

3.       Notes Payable and Long-Term Debt

                    At September 30, 2005, notes payable and long-term debt consisted of the following:

Convertible Debentures bearing interest at 12%, convertible into common stock at a rate of $0.50 per share.


$500,000 

Senior mortgages payable to an investment company, collateralized by real estate, interest at 7%, monthly payments of $6,768 through September 2009. Final payment of $943,000.



995,926 

Junior mortgages payable to private lenders, collateralized by real estate, interest at 4%, monthly payments of $5,111 through September 2009. Final payment of $956,000



1,009,860 

Various installment notes payable to equipment suppliers, bearing interest at various rates from 0% to 12%, due at various times during 2006.


     253,582 

Total notes payable and long-term debt

2,759,368 

Less current portion

(287,506)

Less debt discount, net of amortization of $375,000

    (125,000)

Long-term debt, net

$2,346,862 

Effective January 3, 2005, the Company finalized the private placement of convertible debentures that bear interest at 12% and mature on December 31, 2007. The debentures were sold at face value for gross proceeds of $500,000 and are secured by a pledge of 100% of our shares of Casinos USA. The debentures are convertible into common stock at a conversion rate of $0.50 per share. Holders of the debentures also received warrants to purchase 500,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.15 per share. All holders of the debentures have agreed that the entire principal amount of the debentures will automatically convert into shares of common stock on December 31, 2005.

The warrants were valued using the Black Scholes option pricing model based on the market price of the common stock at the commitment date. The warrant valuation of $237,000 has been allocated to additional paid in capital. After allocating value to the warrants, we used the intrinsic value method to determine that all the remaining proceeds should be allocated to the embedded beneficial conversion feature. As such, $263,000 was credited to additional paid in capital. The total allocation of $500,000 will be amortized over 12 months to coincide with the term of the conversion feature. Amortization expense during the three months ended September 30, 2005 was $125,000.

4.       Related Party Transactions

An officer and director provides certain management, accounting, and administrative services to the Company. During the periods ended September 30, 2005 and 2004, his billings to the Company totaled $9,000 and $11,899, respectively.

A director operates a law firm that provides legal services to the Company. During the periods ended September 30, 2005 and 2004, his billings to the Company totaled $2,615 and $5,139, respectively.

5.       Commitments and Contingencies

On February 28, 2005, Harry Schmidt filed a civil suit against Global Casinos, Inc. demanding payment in excess of $59,000 related to two promissory notes that originated in 1996. The Company has retained legal counsel and is vigorously defending the matter. The Company cannot determine the likely outcome of this litigation.

6.       Income Taxes

The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to income taxes on income arising in, or derived from, the tax jurisdictions in which they operate.

Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Deferred tax assets are comprised mainly of net operating loss carry-forwards.

The reconciliation between the statutory federal tax rate and the effective tax rate as a percentage is as follows:

ITEM 2.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Certain statements in this Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations which are not historical facts are forward-looking statements such as statements relating to future operating results, existing and expected competition, financing and refinancing sources and availability and plans for future development or expansion activities and capital expenditures. Such forward-looking statements involve a number of risks and uncertainties that may significantly affect our liquidity and results in the future and, accordingly, actual results may differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements. Such risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, those related to effects of competition, leverage and debt service financing and refinancing efforts, general economic conditions, changes in gaming laws or regulations (including the legalization of gaming in various jurisdictions) and risks related to development and construction activities. The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this report.

Overview

We operate in the domestic gaming industry. We were organized as a holding company for the purpose of acquiring and operating casinos, gaming properties and other related interests. At September 30, 2005, our operations consisted solely of the Bull Durham Saloon & Casino in Black Hawk, Colorado.

Our operations are seasonal. The Bull Durham experiences a significant increase in business during the summer tourist season.

We operate in a highly regulated environment subject to the political process. Our retail gaming license is subject to annual renewal by the Colorado Division of Gaming. Changes to existing statutes and regulations could have a negative effect on our operations.

Results of Operations - Three Months Ended September 30, 2005 Compared to the Three Months Ended September 30, 2004

We recognized net income of $67,706 ($0.02 per share) for the three months ended September 30, 2005 compared to net income of $170,173 ($0.07 per share) for the same period in 2004.

Revenues

Casino revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2005 were $1,076,980 compared to $966,978 for the 2004 period, an increase of $110,002 or 11%. The increased revenues are primarily attributed to an increased win percentage on our slot machines. There was a shift in our players' preferences toward "penny" slot machines, which typically have a higher house win percentage than larger denomination slot machines. We also experienced a temporary increase in house win percent on our "dollar" slot machines.

Operating Expenses

Casino operating expenses increased to $793,560 for the three months ended September 30, 2005 compared to $701,198 for the three months ended September 30, 2004, an increase of $92,362. Our costs increased by 13% while our revenues increased by 11%. The largest component of cost increase came from the installation of the Oasis Casinos Management System. An increase in depreciation expense of $22,469 was primarily depreciation on the new system. Slot club expenses also increased by $12,965 as we rolled out the system. Payroll increases of $18,962 primarily relate to increasing wage rates. Furthermore, directors' fees paid to the directors of Casinos USA increased by $14,500 for the quarter.

General and administrative expenses increased from $46,768 for the three months ended September 30, 2004 to $47,444 for the three months ended September 30, 2005, an increase of $676 or 1%. Neither period included any unusual items.

Interest Expense

Interest expense was $168,270 for the three months ended September 30, 2005 compared to $48,839 for the similar period in 2004. During 2005, we issued 12% convertible debentures with detachable warrants and a beneficial conversion feature. Amortization of the debt discounting resulting from the warrants and beneficial conversion feature was $125,000 for the quarter, which increased our reported interest expense.

For federal income tax purposes, Global has a net operating loss carryover (NOL) approximating $6,500,000, which can be used to offset future taxable income, if any. Under the Tax Reform Act of 1986, the amounts of and the benefits from NOL's are subject to certain limitations including restrictions imposed when there is a loss of business continuity or when ownership changes in excess of 50% of outstanding shares, under certain circumstances. Thus, there is no guarantee that Global will be able to utilize its NOL before it expires and no potential benefit has been recorded in the financial statements.

Inflation did not have a material impact on the Company's operations for the period.

Other than the foregoing, management knows of no trends, demands, or uncertainties that are reasonably likely to have a material impact on the Company's results of operations.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our primary source of cash is internally generated through operations. Historically, cash generated from operations has not been sufficient to satisfy working capital requirements and capital expenditures. Consequently, we have depended on funds received through debt and equity financing to address these shortfalls. We have also relied, from time to time, upon loans from affiliates to meet immediate cash demands. There can be no assurance that these affiliates or other related parties will continue to provide funds to us in the future, as there is no legal obligation on these parties to provide such loans.

At September 30, 2005, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $1,056,752, substantially all of which was utilized in our casino operations. Pursuant to state gaming regulations, the casino is required to maintain cash balances sufficient to pay potential jackpot awards. The Company does not have access to any revolving credit facilities.

Our working capital improved by $217,823 to $308,645 at September 30, 2005, from $90,822 at June 30, 2005, primarily because of cash flow from operating activities.

Cash provided by operating activities was $268,463 for the three months ended September 30, 2005. For the same period in 2004, operating activities provided net cash of $299,642. The decline in cash provided by operating activities of $31,179 was primarily the result of using some cash balances to reduce outstanding accounts payable.

Cash used in investing activities was $9,377 for the three months ended September 30, 2005, all of which was used for capital expenditures. We used net cash of $24,916 in investing activities for the three months ended September 30, 2004, also for capital expenditures.

Cash flows used in financing activities increased $52,546 to $119,542 for the three months ended September 30, 2005, compared to cash used of $66,996 in 2004. Scheduled payments on our indebtedness were $119,542 in 2005 and $91,996 in 2004. The increased debt payments primarily related to our purchase of the Oasis Casino Management System during fiscal year 2005. In 2004, we also received cash proceeds of $25,000 from the sale of common stock units.

Effective January 3, 2005 the Company finalized the private placement of convertible debentures that bear interest at 12% and mature on December 31, 2007. The debentures were sold at face value for gross proceeds of $500,000 and are secured by a pledge of 100% of our shares of Casinos USA. The debentures are convertible into common stock at a conversion rate of $0.50 per share. Holders of the debentures also received warrants to purchase 500,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.15 per share. All holders of the debentures have agreed that the entire principal amount of the debentures will automatically convert into shares of common stock on December 31, 2005.

The warrants were valued using the Black Scholes option pricing model based on the market price of the common stock at the commitment date. The warrant valuation of $237,000 has been allocated to additional paid in capital. After allocating value to the warrants, we used the intrinsic value method to determine that all the remaining proceeds should be allocated to the embedded beneficial conversion feature. As such, $263,000 was credited to additional paid in capital. The total allocation of $500,000 will be amortized over 12 months commencing January 3, 2005.

In September 2004, the Company sold to three investors an aggregate of 250,000 units at a price of $0.10 per unit. Each unit consisted of one share of common stock and one warrant exercisable for a period of 15 months to purchase one additional share of common stock at an exercise price of $0.15. The securities were taken for investment purposes and were subject to restrictions on transfer. The securities were issued without registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, in reliance upon the exemption from registration requirements thereof contained in Section 4(2) and Regulation D, Rule 504 thereunder.

Other than the foregoing, management knows of no trends, demands, or uncertainties that are reasonably likely to have a material impact on the Company's liquidity and capital resources.

ITEM 3.         CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Frank L. Jennings, Principal Executive and Financial Officer of Global Casinos, Inc., has established and is currently maintaining disclosure controls and procedures for the Company. The disclosure controls and procedures have been designed to ensure that material information relating to the Company is made known to him as soon as it is known by others within the Company.

Our Principal Executive and Financial Officer conducts an update and a review and evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures and has concluded, based on his evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this Report, that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective for gathering, analyzing and disclosing the information we are required to disclose in our reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. There have been no significant changes in our internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the date of the previously mentioned evaluation.
