See accompanying notes to consolidated financial statements 9 PENN NATIONAL GAMING, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION The consolidated financial statements are unaudited and include the accounts of Penn National Gaming, Inc., (Penn) and its wholly owned subsidiaries, (collectively the "Company"). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) have been made which are necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company as of June 30, 2001 and the results of its operations for the six month periods ended June 30, 2001 and 2000. The results of operations experienced for the six month period ended June 30,2001 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be experienced for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2001. The statements and related notes have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The accompanying notes should therefore be read in conjunction with the Company's December 31, 2000 annual financial statements. 2. INTEREST RATE SWAPS Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Statement No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," and Statement No. 138, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities - an amendment of FASB 133," are effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000 - fiscal year 2001 for the Company. The Company has conducted evaluations of hedging policies and strategies for existing and anticipated future derivative transactions. Adoption of these statements as of January 1, 2001 did not have a significant effect on the Company's financial statements other than recognition of derivative assets and liabilities on the balance sheet with market value adjustments recognized in other comprehensive income. 3. SUPPLEMENTAL DISCLOSURES OF CASH FLOW INFORMATION Cash paid during the six months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000 for interest was $12,397,000 and $4,849,000 respectively. Cash paid during the six months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000 for income taxes was $1,021,000 and $1,735,000 respectively. 4. SEGMENT INFORMATION In the year ended December 31, 2000, the Company adopted SFAS No. 131 "Disclosures About Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information." The Company has determined that it currently operates in two segments: (1) gaming and (2) racing. The accounting policies for each segment are the same as those described in the "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" for the year ended December 31, 2000. The Company and the gaming 10 industry use EBITDA as a means to evaluate performance. EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income (as determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States) as a measure of operating results or cash flows (as determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States) or as a measure of the Company's limitations. The table below presents information about reported segments:

(3) Primarily reflects intracompany transactions related to import/export simulcasting. 5. SENIOR SUBORDINATED NOTES On March 12, 2001, the Company completed an offering of $200,000,000 of its 11 1/8% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2008. Interest on the notes is payable on March 1 and September 1 of each year, beginning September 1, 2001. These notes mature on March 1, 2008. The Company may redeem all or part of the notes on or after March 1, 2005 at certain specified redemption prices. Prior to March 1, 2004, the Company may redeem up to 35% of the notes from proceeds of certain sales of its equity securities. The notes also are subject to redemption requirements imposed by state and local gaming laws and regulations. 11 The notes are general unsecured obligations and are guaranteed on a senior subordinated basis by all of the Company's current and future wholly owned domestic subsidiaries. The notes rank equally with the Company's future senior subordinated debt and junior to its senior debt, including debt under the Company's senior credit facility. In addition, the notes will be effectively junior to any indebtedness of our non-U.S. or unrestricted subsidiaries, none of which guarantee the notes. The notes and guarantees were originally issued in a private placement pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"). On July 30, 2001, the Company completed an offer to exchange the notes and guarantees for notes and guarantees registered under the Securities Act having substantially identical terms. The proceeds from these notes were used to finance the CRC acquisition that was completed on April 27, 2001. 6. ACQUISITIONS MISSISSIPPI On August 8, 2000, the Company completed its acquisition of all of the assets of the Casino Magic hotel, casino, golf resort, recreational vehicle park and marina in Bay St. Louis, Mississippi and the Boomtown Biloxi casino in Biloxi, Mississippi (the "Mississippi Acquisitions"), from Pinnacle Entertainment, Inc. (formerly Hollywood Park, Inc.) The Mississippi Acquisitions were accomplished pursuant to the terms of two asset purchase agreements, each dated December 10, 1999, for an aggregate of $195 million. The terms of each of the agreements were the result of arm's length negotiations among the parties. In addition to acquiring all of the operating assets and related operations of the Casino Magic Bay St. Louis and Boomtown Biloxi properties, the Company entered into a licensing agreement to use Boomtown and Casino Magic names and marks at the properties acquired. CRC On April 27, 2001, the Company completed its acquisitions of (i) CRC Holdings, Inc. ("CRC") from the shareholders of CRC and (ii) the minority interest in Louisiana Casino Cruises, Inc.("LCCI") not owned by CRC from Dan S. Meadows, Thomas L. Meehan and Jerry L. Bayles (together, the "CRC Acquisition"). The CRC Acquisition was accomplished pursuant to the terms of Agreement and Plan of Merger among CRC Holdings, Inc., Penn National Gaming, Inc., Casino Holdings, Inc. and certain shareholders of CRC Holdings, Inc., dated as of July 31, 2000 (the "Merger Agreement"), and a Stock Purchase Agreement by and among Penn National Gaming, Inc., Dan S. Meadows, Thomas L. Meehan and Jerry L. Bayles, dated as of July 31, 2000. Under the Merger Agreement, CRC merged with Casino Holdings, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (the "Merger"). The terms of each of the agreements were the result of arm's length negotiations among the parties. The aggregate consideration paid by the Company for the CRC Acquisition was approximately $182.4 million, including the repayment of existing debt at CRC or its subsidiaries. The purchase price of the 12 CRC Acquisition was funded by the proceeds of the Company's offering of senior subordinated notes, which was completed in March 2001. The assets acquired pursuant to the Merger and CRC Acquisition consist primarily of the Casino Rouge riverboat gaming facility in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, and a management contract for Casino Rama, a gaming facility located in Orillia, Canada. LCCI NOTES TENDER OFFER On February 20, 2001, the Company commenced a cash tender offer to purchase all of the LCCI 11% Senior Secured Notes due 2005 (the "LCCI Notes") and a related consent solicitation to eliminate certain restrictive covenants and related provisions in the indenture pursuant to which the LCCI Notes were issued. The tender offer was completed on April 27, 2001 in conjunction with the completion of the CRC Acquisition. The total consideration for each $1,000 principal amount of notes tendered was $1,146.90, plus accrued and unpaid interest up to but not including, the payment date, which includes a consent payment of $30 per $1,000 principal amount of notes. Payment for the notes and consent payments were made on April 30, 2001.

7. RECENT ACCOUNTING STANDARDS In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board finalized FASB Statements No. 141, BUSINESS COMBINATIONS (SFAS 141). and No. 142, GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLES ASSETS (SFAS 142). SFAS 141 requires the use of the purchase method accounting and prohibits the use of pooling-of-interests method of accounting for business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001. SFAS 141 also requires that the Company recognize acquired intangible assets apart from goodwill if the acquired intangible assets meet certain criteria. SFAS 141 applies to all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001 and for the purchase business combinations completed on or after July 1, 2001. It also requires, upon adoption of SFAS 142, that the Company reclassifies the carrying amounts of intangible assets and goodwill based on certain criteria in SFAS 141. SFAS 142 requires, among other things, that companies no longer amortize goodwill, but 13 instead test goodwill for impairment at least annually. In addition, SFAS 142 requires that the Company identify reporting units for the purpose of assessing potential future impairments of goodwill, reassess the useful lives of the other existing recognized intangible assets, and cease amortization of intangible assets with an indefinite useful life. Any intangible asset with an indefinite useful life should be tested for impairment in accordance with the guidance in SFAS 142. SFAS 142 is required to be applied in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001 to all goodwill and other intangible assets recognized at that date, regardless of when those assets were initially recognized. SFAS 142 requires the Company to complete a transitional goodwill impairment test six months from the date of adoption. The Company is also required to reassess the useful lives of the other intangible assets within the first interim quarter after adoption of SFAS 142. The Company's previous business combinations were accounted for using the purchase method. As of June 30, 2001, net carrying amount of goodwill is $164,678 and other intangible assets is $25,012. Amortization expense during the six-month period ended June 30, 2001 was $2,193. Currently, the Company is assessing but has not yet determined how the adoption of SFAS 142 will impact its financial position and results of operations. 14 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS OVERVIEW We derive substantially all of our revenues from gaming and racing operations. Revenues from our gaming machines at the Charles Town Entertainment Complex and our gaming operations in Mississippi and Louisiana and our management contract in Orillia, Canada have accounted for an increasingly larger share of our total revenues. Our racing revenues have been derived from wagering on our live races, wagering on import simulcasts at our racetracks and OTWs and through telephone account wagering, and fees from wagering on export simulcasting our races at out-of-state locations. Our other revenues have been derived from admissions, program sales, food and beverage sales, concessions and certain other ancillary activities. On a prospective basis, our acquisition of the Mississippi properties and the consummation of the CRC acquisition on April 27, 2001 will impact further our revenue mix between gaming and racing revenues. We expect that in future periods gaming revenue as a percentage of our total revenues will continue to increase as we continue to focus on our gaming operations. For the six months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000, gaming revenue represented approximately 68.5% and 44.0% of our total revenue, respectively. 15 RESULTS OF OPERATIONS THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2001 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2000 The results of operations by property level for the three months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000 are summarized below:

- ----------- (1) Reflects results of the Mississippi properties since the August 8, 2000 acquisition from Pinnacle Entertainment. (2) Reflect results of the CRC acquisition since April 28, 2001 (3) Primarily reflects intracompany transactions related to import/export simulcasting. Revenues for the three months ended June 30, increased by $71.8 million, or 117.9%, to $132.7 million in 2001 from $60.9 million in 2000.

Revenues increased at the Charles Town Entertainment Complex by $13.7 million or 39.9% to $48.0 million in 2001 from $34.3 million in 2000. Gaming revenue accounted for 96% of the increase at Charles Town due to an increase in the number of machines from 1,500 to 2,000 in 2001 and a change in machine mix from video voucher machines to coin-out machines. Revenues from the Pennsylvania racetracks and their OTWs have decreased by $.8 million due to a slight decrease in wagering. Operating expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2001 increased by $62.1 million, or 124.2%, to $112.1 million from $50.0 million in 2000.

Net interest expense increased by $9.3 million to $11.1 million in 2001 from $1.8 million in 2000 16 due to the additional borrowings to fund the acquisitions of the Mississippi properties on August 7, 2000 and the CRC acquisition on April 27, 2001. Income before income taxes for the three months ended June 30, 2001 increased by $.2 million to $9.9 in 2001 from $9.7 in 2000 as a result of the above. CHARLES TOWN ENTERTAINMENT COMPLEX Revenues increased at Charles Town by approximately $13.7 million or 39.9% to $48.0 million in 2001 from $34.3 million in 2000. Gaming revenue increased by $12.9 million or 47.1% to $40.3 million in 2001 from $27.4 million in 2000 due to the addition of 474 new reel spinning and video, coin-out slot machines since the fourth quarter of last year and an additional 26 coin-out video slots since June 21, 2001. The average number of slot machines increased to 1,956 in 2001 from 1,344 in 2000. The company currently has 2,000 slot machines operating at the facility. Racing revenue increased by $.5 million or 9.3% to $5.9 million in 2001 from $5.4 million in 2000. The live meet consisted of 59 race days in 2001 compared to 60 race days in 2000. The increase in racing revenue is due mainly to the growth of export simulcasting. Charles Town began exporting its live race program to tracks across the country on June 5, 1999 and generated export simulcasting revenues of $.8 million for 2001 compared to $.6 million in 2000. Other revenues increased by approximately $.3 million or 20.0% to $1.8 million in 2001 from $1.5 million in 2000 due to increased attendance for gaming and racing, the opening of the Sundance Cafe in the OK Corral, and the expansion of the concession areas, dining room and buffet area. Operating expenses increased by $10.8 million or 42.0% to $36.5 million in 2001 from $25.7 million in 2000. The increase was due to increased lottery taxes, purses, salaries, wages and administrative expenses relating to the increase in gaming revenues. Depreciation expense increased by $1.3 million to $2.1 million in 2001 from $.8 million in 2000 due to additional gaming machines and improvements in 2001. EBITDA increased by $4.3 million, or 45.7% to $13.7 million in 2001 from $9.4 million in 2000. MISSISSIPPI CASINOS The Casino Magic Bay St Louis and Boomtown Biloxi acquisitions were completed on August 8, 2000.

EBITDA for the Mississippi casinos totaled $8.7 million for the period. Our Mississippi casino operations have numerous competitors, many of which have greater name recognition and financial and marketing resources than we do. Competition in the Mississippi gaming markets is significantly more intense than the competition that our gaming operations face in Louisiana, West Virginia or our pari-mutuel operations face in Pennsylvania and New Jersey. CRC ACQUISITION The CRC acquisition was completed on April 27, 2001 and includes the purchase of Casino Rouge in Baton Rouge Louisiana and a management contract to operate Casino Rama in Orillia Canada.

Pari-mutuel wagering was $95.1 million in 2001 compared to $103.3 million in 2000. The decrease in wagering is attributed to the reduction of telephone account wagering as a result of the discontinuation of the Track Power agreement, the reduction at Penn National of horse field sizes and increased competition from other telephone account and internet wagering systems. The decrease in revenue is attributed to the decrease in wagering. Operating expenses decreased by $.5 million, or 3.5%, to $13.9 million in 2001 from $14.4 million in 2000. The decrease in operating expenses was directly related to the decrease in total revenues. EBITDA decreased by $.8 million, or 28.5%, to $2.0 million in 2001 from $2.8 million in 2000. POCONO DOWNS AND ITS OTW FACILITIES For the three months ended June 30, 2001 Pocono Downs and its OTWs had revenue of $10.8 million compared to $10.3 million for the same period in 2000 which was an increase of $.4 million or 3.8%. The increase came primarily from the opening of a new OTW facility (East Stroudsburg) which increased the import simulcast revenue by $.6 million to $ 7.8 million in 2001 from $ 7.2 million in 2000. Operating expenses increased by approximately $.9 million or 10.6% to $9.4 million in 2001 from $8.5 million in 2000. Operating and administrative expense increase was attributable to the opening of the new OTW facility. Purse expenses, simulcast expenses and pari-mutuel tax increases were directly related to the revenue increase.

SENIOR SUBORDINATED NOTES On March 12, 2001, we completed through a private placement, the sale of $200 million in aggregate principal amount of 11 1/8% of Senior Subordinated Notes due March 1, 2008 the proceeds of the notes were used, in part, to complete the acquisition of CRC Holding, Inc. and the minority interest in Louisiana Casino Cruises, Inc. (LCCI) not owned by CRC. The Senior Subordinated Notes rank equally with our other senior indebtedness and junior to our senior debt, including debt under our senior secured credit facility. The Senior Subordinated Notes are guaranteed by all of our current and future wholly owned domestic subsidiaries. We have filed a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933 to effect an exchange offer of registered Senior Subordinated Notes. 22 OUTLOOK Based on our current level of operations, and anticipated revenue growth, we believe that cash generated from operations and amounts available under our credit facility will be adequate to meet our anticipated debt service requirements, capital expenditures and working capital needs for the foreseeable future. We cannot assure you, however, that our business will generate sufficient cash flow from operations, that our anticipated revenue growth will be realized, or that future borrowings will be available under our credit facility or otherwise will be available to enable us to service our indebtedness, including the credit facility and the notes, to retire or redeem the notes when required or to make anticipated capital expenditures. In addition, if we consummate significant acquisitions in the future, our cash requirements may increase significantly. We may need to refinance all or a portion of our debt on or before maturity. Our future operating performance and our ability to service or refinance our debt will be subject to future economic conditions and to financial, business and other factors, many of which are beyond our control. ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK On December 20, 2000, we entered into an interest rate swap agreement with a financial institution in the notional amount of $100 million. The interest rate swap agreement hedges our exposure on our outstanding floating rate obligations, which were $276,600,000 at June 30, 2001. The purpose of the interest rate swap is to convert a portion of our floating rate interest obligations to obligations having a fixed rate of 5.835% plus an applicable margin up to 4.00% per annum through December 20, 2003. The fixing of interest rates reduces in part our exposure to the uncertainty of floating interest rates. The differentials paid or received by us on the interest rate swap agreement is recognized as adjustments to interest expense in the period incurred. For the six months ended June 30, 2001, interest expense increased by approximately $265,000 as a result of the interest rate swap agreement. We are exposed to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by our counter party to the interest rate swap agreement. We do not anticipate nonperformance by such financial institution, and no material loss would be expected from the nonperformance by such financial institution. Our interest rate swap agreement expires in December 2003. 23 ITEM 6.
