Global Casinos, Inc. (OTCBB: GBCS) today announced financial
results for its fiscal first quarter ended September 30, 2008.
Net revenue increased 87% to $1,671,000 from $895,000 in the
same period a year ago. The increase is primarily attributable to
Global's March 2008 acquisition of the Doc Holliday Casino in
Central City. First quarter operating income was $30,000 versus
$81,000 in last year's first quarter. The decline is largely the
result of higher stock-based compensation and consulting expenses,
combined with operating losses at Doc Holliday. Global reported a
net loss attributable to common shareholders of $29,000, or less
than $0.01 per diluted share, versus net income attributable to
common shareholders of $59,000, or $0.01 per diluted share, in the
first quarter last year. For the three months ended September 30,
net operating cash flow increased 27% to $181,000 versus $142,000
in the comparable fiscal 2007 period.
Clifford L. Neuman, president, said, "In addition to the revenue
contributions from our new Doc Holliday operations, we achieved an
11% quarter-over-quarter increase in revenue at our core Bull
Durham property. The growth and performance of our legacy gaming
operations is particularly encouraging given current economic
conditions, which have negatively impacted much of the local and
national gaming industry. Bull Durham's performance in this
environment reflects the ongoing success we are having with our
targeted marketing and customer loyalty programs. Our efforts to
implement similar programs at Doc Holliday are proceeding on
plan."
Neuman said the recent passage of a Colorado ballot initiative
could significantly strengthen the financial prospects of the
state's gaming industry. "Higher wager limits, extended hours of
operation and the introduction of craps and roulette all could be
in place by next summer. There is compelling evidence that expanded
gaming and higher bet limits can enhance the economic viability of
localized gaming markets. A similar increase in wager limits was
authorized in Deadwood, South Dakota in 2000, and it helped fuel
substantial growth in both gaming revenue and tax receipts. That
growth continues today, as Deadwood has experienced a 7 percent
increase in gaming revenue so far in 2008. Over the same time
frame, gaming revenue in Colorado is down 11.4 percent. We are
optimistic the passage of Amendment 50, coupled with our internal
efforts to enhance operations, will result in long-term growth and
profitability at Global Casinos."
