Item 4.02 Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements or a Related Audit Report   or Completed Interim Review

(a)
Isle of Capri Casinos, Inc. (the “Company”) concluded on March 10, 2007, and announced on March 12, 2007, that it would restate its financial statements for the fiscal years ended April 25, 2004, April 24, 2005 and April 30, 2006 and the quarterly results for fiscal 2005 and 2006 included therein, and for the first two quarters of fiscal 2007. The Company’s press release announcing the restatement is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1. Accordingly, the financial statements contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal years ended April 25, 2004, April 24, 2005, April 30, 2006, in the Company’s Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q filed with respect to the above-referenced fiscal years, and in the Company’s Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarters ended July 30, 2006 and October 29, 2006, should no longer be relied upon. The Company’s Board of Directors and management have discussed the matters disclosed in this filing with Ernst & Young LLP, the Company’s independent accountant.

The items to be restated primarily relate to certain lease accounting issues related to the space being leased for the Company’s new casino in Coventry, England, statutory audit adjustments for a United Kingdom subsidiary and adjustments related to the amortization of certain intangible assets related to customer lists and berthing rights, which should have been fully expensed prior to fiscal year 2004.

The Company expects these adjustments to result in a reduction of its retained earnings through the fiscal quarter ended October 29, 2006 in an amount not to exceed $12 million, which includes adjustments related to periods prior to fiscal 2004 of approximately $6.0 to $7.0 million primarily related to amortization of intangible assets as discussed below.
