  • Managements Focus
  • Since the beginning of 2004, the Company has
    spent approximately 3 million to upgrade the
    product mix on the gaming floor, improve the
    player tracking system and introduce cashless
    gaming machines. These upgrades have increased
    the Companys overall depreciation expense.
  • Management uses points and coupons to attract
    customers with the expectation of increasing
    gaming revenue.
  • The Company has not yet decided on the next
    phase of expansion, but owns all of the
    vacant property adjacent to the casino and is
    able to expand once it feels comfortable that
    the additional cost of the expansion will improve
    net earnings.
  • The Company has notified the leaseholder of its
    rented property in Cripple Creek that it
    intends to exercise its 1.3 million purchase
    option for the property.
  • Net operating revenues are down under continued
    competitive pressure. The Companys marketing
    strategy is tailored to compete by promoting the
    Gold Club in which patrons can earn rewards
    that can be redeemed for discounted or free
    meals, rooms, cash and other prizes. During the
    first nine months of 2005, 66.7 of play came
    from Gold Club members, compared to 62.7 during
    the same period last year.
  • Net earnings and EBITDA have increased for the
    third quarter of 2005. Casino expenses
    decreased by 6.4, primarily a result of the
    elimination of television advertising and a
    reduction in coupon redemption.

  • Operational Results
  • YTD revenue growth, excluding the effect of
    exchange rate fluctuations (USD/RAND), was
    12.6.
  • Overall casino revenues have increased even as
    they were negatively impacted by the closure of
    the N2 highway for 47 days of the second
    quarter due to heavy flooding. Local management
    conservatively estimates the loss in revenue in
    the 300,000 to 400,000 range. The estimated
    impact on net earnings was approximately
    200,000.
  • The full implementation of cashless gaming
    impacted revenue growth in the current year as
    we went through a phase of customer education
    and continuous system upgrades. The impact on
    earnings from the additional accumulation of
    points and coupons by our players resulted in an
    after tax charge of approximately 73K.
  • In an effort to reduce overall interest charges,
    the existing loan with ABSA bank was paid off in
    July 2005 with proceeds from a new 9.4 million
    loan with Nedbank. A 181K charge was incurred
    relating to this early repayment. As a result
    of the transaction, for the quarter we lowered
    our effective interest rate on outstanding
    term loans from 16.9 to a current 9.0.
  • In the third quarter 2005, Caledon outsourced
    its security and upgraded casino related
    software. The total impact on earnings for
    these transactions was approximately 30K.

  • Central City, Colorado
  • On December 30, 2004 the company contributed
    3.5 million towards its 65 interest in the
    proposed 48.7 million Central City project.
    The project is planned to include a 60,000 square
    foot casino and back of house with 625 slot
    machines, six table games, 27 hotel rooms,
    retail, food and beverage amenities and a
    500-space on-site covered parking garage.
    Construction has begun and is expected to be
    completed during the third quarter of 2006.
  • We are in the process of closing on project
    financing with Wells Fargo Bank and obtaining
    licensing from the Colorado Division of
    Gaming. On September 23, 2005, the Company
    obtained a letter of commitment from Wells
    Fargo Bank to provide approximately 35.0 million
    in project financing.

  • Edmonton, Canada
  • On February 24, 2005, through our wholly owned
    subsidiary, Century Resorts International, we
    acquired a 56.4 interest in Century Resorts
    Alberta, Inc. for approximately 2.4 million
    (3.0 million Canadian) in the proposed 26.7
    million (31.3 million Canadian) Celebrations
    Casino and Hotel Project. The project is
    expected to include a casino with 600 gaming
    machines, 31 gaming tables, food and beverage
    amenities, a dinner theater, a 300 space
    underground parking facility, approximately 600
    surface parking spaces and a 26-room hotel.
  • Construction has begun and is expected to take
    approximately 14 months from finalization of
    funding arrangements. On September 23, 2005,
    CRA agreed to the terms of a 20.0 million
    Canadian (17.2 million) credit facility with
    Canadian Western Bank for the development of the
    property.

CENTURY CASINOS
  • Potential Growth Opportunities
  • Newcastle, South Africa In June 2005, we
    entered into a letter of intent for the purchase
    of a 60 controlling interest in Balele
    Leisure (Pty) Ltd., which owns the Monte Vista
    Casino in Newcastle, South Africa. The
    current casino is a temporary facility that has
    200 slot machines and seven gaming tables. A
    new permanent facility is proposed to be
    constructed in 2006. The initial gaming mix in
    the permanent facility is expected to be 220
    slot machines and nine gaming tables. We are in
    the process of completing a definitive
    agreement with the sellers of the interest. The
    purchase price would be 57.5 million Rand (9.0
    million), subject to adjustment (but not to
    exceed 60.0 million Rand (9.5 million)) based
    primarily on casino revenue in the first 12
    months of operation of the new permanent
    facility. The agreement will contain
    significant conditions to closing, including
    gaming and other regulatory approvals. Assuming
    that all sellers agree to and approve the
    transaction, we would not expect closing to occur
    until at least the first quarter of 2006.
  • In Cripple Creek, having spanned the alley
    behind the existing casino, Womacks is positioned
    to continue building out the casino on a
    single level to the rear of the property to
    Meyers Avenue. This could result in Womacks
    having the largest casino floor on one level in
    Cripple Creek. The Company has not yet decided
    on the next phase of expansion, but is in the
    position to expand once it feels comfortable that
    the additional cost of the expansion will
    improve net earnings.
  • In Caledon, we own over 600 acres of land with
    a direct off-ramp from the main Cape Town
    Durban highway, giving us tremendous
    development opportunities. Building on the
    success of the existing casino, hotel,
    conference and spa resort, we could accommodate
    two 18 hole golf courses, a residential
    community, water activities and other
    attractions.
  • Externally, we are always looking for
    profitable opportunities. We are not excluding
    any well-regulated market worldwide, and, on
    an opportunistic basis, continue to pursue these
    opportunities, including in the United
    Kingdom.
