Item 7.01   Regulation FD Disclosure

As previously disclosed, and in compliance with applicable regulatory approvals, Full House Resorts, Inc. (the “Company”) intends to construct a permanent American Place casino in Waukegan, Illinois, to replace its current temporary facility. The permanent casino is designed to be significantly larger than the temporary casino.

​

Over the past several months, the Company engaged in extensive negotiations with a major financial institution that has expressed a willingness to fund all of the construction costs of the permanent American Place casino. The Company has also been in discussions with certain existing and potential bondholders and lenders regarding the refinancing of its existing 8.25% Senior Secured Notes due 2028 (the “Existing Notes”), including a contemplated private offering of approximately $525.0 million of new senior secured notes due 2031 and a new $100.0 million revolving credit facility. The Company would use the proceeds from these three transactions to redeem the Existing Notes; repay its existing credit facility; fund the full construction of American Place; pay fees, expenses and accrued interest; and for general corporate purposes.

​

In connection with these discussions, the Company provided certain prospective investors with confidential information, including the foregoing, which the Company is disclosing publicly through this Current Report.

​

The Company remains focused on completing the permanent American Place casino and refinancing its existing debt in a manner it believes will best position the Company to create long-term value for its stockholders and other stakeholders. Discussions are ongoing, but any financing, refinancing or other transactions will be subject to the execution of definitive documentation. There can be no assurance that any such transactions can or will be consummated.

​

The information in this Item 7.01 is being furnished and shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.

​

Forward-Looking Statements

​

This Current Report contains forward-looking statements, including statements regarding the financing of construction of the permanent American Place facility and the refinancing of the Company’s existing debt, that involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially, including: whether the Company will complete the construction financing or refinancing on acceptable terms or at all; the Company’s substantial indebtedness; risks associated with completing the American Place development on budget and on time; access to capital and credit on reasonable terms; general market and economic conditions; and other factors contained in the Company’s filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, many of which are difficult to predict and outside of the Company’s control. Forward-looking statements can generally be identified by words such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe,” “seek,” “estimate” or “continue” or similar expressions.

​
