         International Game Technology, a Nevada corporation (IGT), filed a
Current Report on Form 8-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission on
January 4, 2002 (the Current Report) describing IGT's acquisition of all of the
outstanding capital stock of Anchor Gaming, a Nevada corporation (Anchor),
effective as of December 30, 2001. In accordance with the instructions to
paragraph (b)(2) of Item 7, the Current Report omitted the pro forma financial
information required by that paragraph.

         Accordingly, IGT hereby amends the Current Report by deleting Item 7
thereof and replacing it in its entirety with the following:

Item 7.  Financial Statements, Pro Forma Financial Information and Exhibits.

         (a) Financial statements of business acquired. The financial statements
of the business acquired are included or incorporated by reference in IGT's
Registration Statement on Form S-4 (333-67928).

         (b) Pro Forma Financial Information.

               (i)    Pro forma combined condensed balance sheet as of
                      December 29, 2001 (unaudited).

               (ii)   Pro forma combined condensed statement of income for the
                      year ended September 29, 2001 (unaudited).

               (iii)  Pro forma combined condensed statement of income for the
                      three months ended December 29, 2001 (unaudited).

         (c) Exhibits.

Exhibit No.        Description
-----------        -------------------------------------------------------------

2.1                Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of July 8, 2001
                   among International Game Technology, NAC Corporation,
                   a wholly-owned subsidiary of IGT, and Anchor Gaming
                   (incorporated by reference to Exhibit 2.1 to the Form
                   8-K/A of IGT filed with the Securities and Exchange
                   Commission on July 12, 2001).

99.1               Press Release, dated December 26, 2001, reporting the filing
                   of the Articles of Merger.*

                   *Previously filed.






                    UNAUDITED PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION

The  following  unaudited pro forma  combined  condensed  financial  statements,
including the notes thereto, are based on and are qualified in their entirety by
reference to, and should be read in conjunction with, the consolidated financial
statements and the notes thereto of IGT, which were previously reported in IGT's
Annual  Report on Form 10-K for the year  ended  September  29,  2001,  and the
consolidated  financial statements and the notes thereto of Anchor,  which were
previously  reported in Anchor's  Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended on Form
10-K/A,  for the year ended June 30, 2001 and Quarterly  Report on Form 10-Q for
the  quarter  ended  September 30,  2001.  All  of the  above-listed  financial
statements of IGT and Anchor are incorporated  by reference in this Form 8-K/A.
The  unaudited pro forma  combined financial  statements  being filed with this
8-K/A,  including  the notes thereto, are based on the  consolidated  financial
statements  of IGT and Anchor as of and for the three months ended  December 29,
2001, which include all normal recurring adjustments  considered necessary for a
fair presentation.

The acquisition of Anchor will be accounted for using the purchase method of
accounting. The unaudited pro forma combined condensed statements of income of
IGT for the three months ended December 29, 2001 and for the year ended
September 29, 2001 and the unaudited pro forma combined condensed balance sheet
of IGT as of December 29, 2001, which are set forth below, give effect to the
purchase of Anchor based upon the assumptions set forth below and in the notes
to unaudited pro forma combined condensed financial statements. The unaudited
pro forma financial information assumes that the purchase of Anchor was
completed on October 1, 2000 for the unaudited pro forma combined condensed
statements of income and on December 29, 2001 for the unaudited pro forma
combined condensed balance sheet.

Certain amounts in the historical financial statements for Anchor including
certain revenues and related direct costs, and certain depreciation have been
reclassified to be consistent with the presentation used by IGT. IGT and Anchor
have no significant intercompany activity which would require elimination in
preparing the unaudited pro forma combined condensed financial statements.

The pro forma adjustments and the resulting unaudited pro forma combined
condensed financial statements were prepared based on available information and
certain assumptions and estimates described in the notes to unaudited pro forma
combined condensed financial statements. A final determination of required
purchase accounting adjustments, including the allocation of the purchase price
to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, has not been made, and the
allocation reflected in the unaudited pro forma combined condensed financial
statements should be considered preliminary.

The unaudited pro forma combined condensed financial statements do not purport
to represent what IGT's financial position or results of operations would have
been had the acquisition of Anchor occurred on the dates indicated or to project
IGT's financial position or results of operations for any future period.
Furthermore, the unaudited pro forma combined condensed financial statements do
not reflect changes that may occur as the result of activities after the merger
closes.




In March 2001, IGT completed the purchase of Silicon Gaming, Inc. (Silicon).
Financial results for Silicon after the closing of the acquisition are included
in IGT's historical results. The pro forma effect of Silicon is not included as
it is not material.

During fiscal 2001 Anchor recorded  various  one-time  charges.  Anchor incurred
impairment, restructuring,  and other charges of $121.5  million ($97.6 million
net of tax) primarily  related  to its AWI  subsidiary.  Anchor  also  incurred
one-time charges of $1.7 million ($1.0 million net of tax) related to vesting of
restricted stock grants and $7.1 million ($4.3 million net of tax) for inventory
writedowns and  contractual disputes.  Excluding  these charges,  pro forma net
income for the year ended September 29, 2001 would have been $270.1  million or
$2.93 per diluted share.

                 Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Condensed
                              Financial Statements

The following pro forma adjustments have been made to the unaudited pro forma
financial information:

(1)   Historically IGT and Anchor applied the equity method to account for their
      respective share of the Spin For Cash Joint Venture. After the merger, the
      joint venture will be consolidated.  The pro forma adjustments reflect the
      elimination of the investments in the joint venture of $129.5 million. The
      elimination of the earnings of unconsolidated  affiliates of $67.3 million
      for the three  months ended  December 29, 2001 and $283.8  million for the
      twelve months ended September 29, 2001, includes the elimination of timing
      differences of $389,000  due to IGT and Anchor  having  different  closing
      cycles for  fiscal  year 2001.  The  adjustments  also  include  the
      consolidation of the joint venture as summarized below (in thousands):

(2)   Concurrent with the merger, IGT repaid in full and terminated Anchor's
      senior credit facility of $89.5 million using available cash.

      The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of income assume
      that the purchase of Anchor was completed on October 1, 2000. On this
      date, Anchor's obligation under its senior credit facility totaled $200.5
      million. The adjustment for the statement of income reflects the repayment
      of this obligation assuming $125.0 million is paid using available cash
      and the remainder is drawn from IGT's line of credit at an interest rate
      of 4.95%. The weighted average interest rate on Anchor's credit facility
      including amortization of debt issue costs for the three month period
      ended December 29, 2001 was 6.62% and was 8.28% for fiscal 2001. Pro forma
      interest expense decreased by $1.7 million in the three month period and
      $11.1 million for fiscal 2001. The adjustment also includes a decrease in
      interest income of $1.3 million for the three month period due to lower
      cash balances at an interest rate of 2.42% and $5.7 million for fiscal
      2001 based on an interest rate of 3.7%.

      The $248.6 million amount of Anchor's 9-7/8% Senior Subordinated Notes
      remains outstanding  and these Notes have been treated on this basis
      in the pro forma information presented.




(3)   All adjustments to the pro forma statements of income have been tax
      effected using our statutory federal tax rate of 35%, except for the
      disposal of Sunland Park Race Track and Casino (Sunland), which reflects
      actual taxes on the transaction of approximately $15.0 million. The
      long-term deferred tax liabilities amount reflects the adjustment to
      recognize the difference between the fair market values and the tax bases
      of the assets acquired by IGT.

(4)   The merger will be accounted  for as a purchase  under the newly issued
      Statement  of  Financial  Accounting  Standards  (SFAS) No. 141 "Business
      Combinations" and SFAS No. 142 "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets." The

      The pro forma adjustments related to goodwill, intangible assets, and
      assets held for sale include the estimated increase from the purchase
      price allocation above and the elimination of Anchor's historical balance
      as follows (in thousands):




                                                                             Anchor's

        Intangible assets                               325,800               33,035             292,765
        Assets held for sale                             77,000               17,334              59,666



      Stock options of Anchor employees have been converted into the right to
      purchase IGT stock. In accordance with Financial Accounting Standards
      Board (FASB) Interpretation 44, "Accounting for Certain Transactions
      Involving Stock Compensation," the fair value of the stock options issued
      in exchange for outstanding awards are to be included as part of the
      purchase price in a business combination. The fair value of the options is
      approximately $93.0 million.



      Amortizable  intangible  assets with finite  lives of $250.7  million have
      been assigned useful lives of 1 to 16 years.  Intangible  assets with
      indefinite lives  totaled  $75.1  million.  The  write-off of in process
      research and development  costs  of $1.0  million  is not  included in the
      pro forma statement  of  income  as it is a  non-recurring  charge.
      This  amount  is reflected  in the retained  earnings on the  unaudited
      pro forma  combined condensed  balance  sheet.  The increase in
      amortization  of  identifiable intangible  assets with finite  lives
      totaled  $7.5  million for the three months  ended  December  29, 2001 and
      $30.0  million for fiscal  2001.  The increase  in  amortization   expense
      was  offset  by  the  elimination  of amortization of Anchor's  historical
      intangible assets of $1.3 million for the three  months  ended  December
      29, 2001 and $7.9 million for the fiscal year 2001. The estimated fair
      value adjustment  related to the debt assumed totaled  $28.9  million.
      The  amortization  of this fair value  adjustment resulted in a decrease
      in  interest  expense of $1.1  million for the three months ended December
      29, 2001 and $4.3 million for fiscal 2001.

      The above purchase price allocation and the lives assigned to the assets
      are preliminary and have been made solely for the purpose of developing
      the IGT pro forma financial statements.  IGT, with the assistance of
      valuation consultants, is in the process of evaluating the fair value and
      the lives of the assets acquired.  Accordingly, the allocation of the
      purchase price and the lives of the assets acquired, and the resulting
      depreciation and amortization expense, are preliminary and may differ from
      the final purchase price allocation and the final lives assigned to the
      assets.  Any changes in the fair value or lives assigned to amortizable or
      depreciable assets would impact the results of future operations.

(5)   The adjustment reflects IGT shares issued in the merger and the adjustment
      of Anchor's equity.

(6)   FASB Interpretation 44 requires the intrinsic value of the unvested awards
      to be allocated to deferred compensation and recognized as non-cash
      compensation cost over the remaining future vesting periods. The amount
      allocated to deferred compensation is based on the closing price of IGT
      common stock at consummation of the merger. We estimate the total deferred
      compensation to be $14.0 million based on a closing stock price of $70.00
      per share. Deferred compensation will be amortized over an estimated
      remaining vesting period of three years. The adjustment reflects deferred
      compensation as a component of stockholders' equity. Amortization of
      deferred compensation included in the pro forma financial statements was
      $1.2 million for the three months ended December 29, 2001 and $4.7 million
      for fiscal 2001.

(7)   The Anchor historical balance sheet includes deferred compensation related
      to shares issued as restricted stock awards. The vesting of these shares
      will be accelerated upon merger. The amount reflects the elimination of
      the related deferred compensation.

(8)   In December 2000, Anchor disposed of its racetrack assets including
      Sunland and its 25% interest in a Massachusetts horse racing facility. The
      fiscal year 2001 pro forma statement of income includes adjustments to
      eliminate the Sunland operations and gain on the sale of these assets. The
      eliminations are reflected below (in thousands):

(10)  Weighted average common shares outstanding have been adjusted to include
      approximately 14.9 million shares issued in the merger at a conversion
      ratio of one-for-one. The adjustment also reflects the potential dilutive
      effect of Anchor stock options, which will be converted to options to
      purchase approximately 2.2 million shares of IGT common stock. This
      calculation excludes 600,000 shares as the option exercise price was
      greater than the average market price. Applying the treasury method of
      accounting, the pro forma adjustment reflects approximately 735,000
      additional common shares related to these options for the three months
      ended December 29, 2001 and 634,000 additional shares for fiscal 2001.


(11)  The adjustment reflects the elimination of Anchor's legal, accounting, and
      advisory costs related to the merger of $861,000 for the quarter ended
      December 29, 2001 and $1.6 million for the year ended September 29, 2001.

(12)  During fiscal 2001 Anchor incurred various one-time charges.  Anchor
      incurred impairment, restructuring, and other charges of $121.5 million
      ($97.6 million net of tax) primarily related to its AWI subsidiary.
      This amount excludes the impairment related to the Montana route of $7.9
      million.  Anchor also incurred one-time charges of $1.7 million ($1.0
      million net of tax) related to vesting of restricted stock grants and $7.1
      million ($4.3 million net of tax) for inventory writedowns and contractual
      disputes.  Excluding these charges, pro forma income from operations for
      fiscal 2001 would have been $513.2 million and pro forma net income would
      have totaled $270.1 million or $2.93 per diluted share.

(13)  Under an agreement entered into on December 23, 2001, Anchor's Pala casino
      management contract will be surrendered for an agreed upon payment and has
      been classified as an asset held for sale.  The pro forma statements of
      income have been adjusted to exclude the results of operations for the
      Pala management contract.
