PART II
RULES 12b-25(b) AND (c)
If the subject report could not be filed without unreasonable effort or expense and the registrant seeks relief pursuant to Rule 12b-25(b), the following should be completed. (Check box if appropriate)
|
(a) |
The reason described in reasonable detail in Part III of this form could not be eliminated without unreasonable effort or expense |
x |
(b) |
The subject annual report, semi-annual report, transition report on Form 10-K, Form 20-F, Form 11-K, Form N-SAR or Form N-CSR, or portion thereof, will be filed on or before the fifteenth calendar day following the prescribed due date; or the subject quarterly report or transition report on Form 10-Q or subject distribution report on Form 10-D, or portion thereof, will be filed on or before the fifth calendar day following the prescribed due date; and |
|
(c) |
The accountants statement or other exhibit required by Rule 12b-25(c) has been attached if applicable. |
State below in reasonable detail the reasons why Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q, 10-D, N-SAR, N-CSR, or the transition report or portion thereof, could not be filed within the prescribed time period.
Bally Technologies, Inc. (the Company) hereby requests an extension of time to file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2006 (the September 2006 Form 10-Q). Because the Company dedicated significant resources towards its amended Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2005, which was filed on October 31, 2006, it has been unable to file its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarters ended September 30, 2005, December 31, 2005 and March 31, 2006, as well as its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2006 (collectively, the Delinquent Reports). Until the Company has filed the Delinquent Reports, the Company will not be able to file its September 2006 Form 10-Q. The Company continues to dedicate significant resources to the preparation of the Delinquent Reports and the related financial statements.

Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarters ended September 30, 2005, December 31, 2005 and March 31, 2006 and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2006. |

(3) |
|
Is it anticipated that any significant change in results of operations from the corresponding period for the last fiscal year will be reflected by the earnings statements to be included in the subject report or portion thereof? |

|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
x Yes o No |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If so, attach an explanation of the anticipated change, both narratively and quantitatively, and, if appropriate, state the reasons why a reasonable estimate of the results cannot be made.
In its amended Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2005, filed on October 31, 2006, the Company reported a net loss from continuing operations of $(2.9) million , or $(0.06) per diluted share, on revenues of $119.6 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2004. The Company also anticipates reporting a net loss from continuing operations for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2005. Although the Company expects significant changes between its results of operations for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2006, as compared to the results for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2005, until the Company has completed the preparation of the financial statements related to such periods, the Company cannot make a reasonable estimate of the changes between such periods. However, the Company expects to report net income from continuing operations for the quarter ended September 30, 2006.
