Jeffrey Lipkin, Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, stated, “During the quarter we saw continued strengthening of key performance indicators in each of our business segments, which translated into improved like-for-like consolidated revenue. In fact, we experienced only a modest decrease in attributable EBITDA despite the loss of attributable EBITDA from the sale of the Racing Business.  With two consecutive quarters of positive trends, we believe we are building strong momentum in our lottery and gaming businesses.”
 
 
 

 

Chairman and Chief Executive Officer A. Lorne Weil commented, “We believe the Company is entering a new and exciting period as we’re executing on the key growth initiatives outlined late last year. We’ve realized improved performance in both China and Italy, increased our installed base of server-based gaming machines, broadened the reach of our internet-based services, and are now preparing for the launch of the first private management contract in the U.S. with the Illinois Lottery. Additionally, the pending acquisition of Barcrest will enable us to offer best-of-breed content to our state-of-the-art server-based gaming network, which we believe will drive cash box performance for our customers and, in turn, revenue for our Company.”

First Quarter Financial Results
Revenue was $196.7 million in the first quarter of 2011 compared to $216.3 million in the first quarter of 2010. The decrease in revenue was primarily due to the sale of the Racing Business. Excluding the results of the Racing Business in the first quarter of 2010 ($24.5 million), revenue in the first quarter of 2011 increased 2.5% versus the prior-year period.

Operating income was $14.4 million in the first quarter of 2011 compared to operating income of $21.5 million in the prior-year period. This primarily reflects the sale of the Racing Business, accelerated depreciation of Global Draw’s existing back-end platform technology as a result of the business’s migration to a new technology, and increased selling, general and administrative expenses, partially offset by increases in operating income in the Lottery Systems Group ($2.6 million) and the Printed Products Group ($1.4 million).

Joint venture EBITDA was $21.2 million in the first quarter of 2011, compared to $18.7 million in the prior-year period, primarily due to higher EBITDA from the Company’s Italy and China joint ventures. Attributable EBITDA was $75.0 million in the first quarter of 2011, compared to $76.6 million in the prior-year period.

Net loss in the first quarter of 2011 was $6.9 million, or $0.08 per share, compared to net income of $4.9 million, or $0.05 per share, in the prior-year period. In addition to the impact of the above-mentioned items, the decline in net income was attributable to higher interest expense ($1.7 million), increased income tax expense ($3.4 million) and lower equity in earnings of joint ventures ($6.5 million).  This decline was primarily due to the structure of Lotterie Nazionali S.r.l. (“LNS”), the Company’s joint venture that holds the concession for the Italian instant ticket lottery.  The Company’s share of net earnings from Italy are now reported on an after-tax basis and reflect amortization of the upfront fee for the concession, which together reduced equity in earnings of the joint venture by approximately $9.2 million in the first quarter of 2011 compared to the prior-year period. These items were partially offset by a change in other income ($7.0 million) primarily due to a loss on a foreign currency hedge in the first quarter of 2010.

Net loss for the first quarter of 2011 was also impacted by the following items (which are adjustments to “consolidated EBITDA” under the Company’s credit agreement and reflected on a pre-tax basis in attributable EBITDA), presented below on an after-tax basis:
 
§
specified permitted add-backs of $1.7 million, primarily consisting of professional fees related to the pending acquisition of Barcrest,
 
§
deferred contingent incentive compensation expense of $0.7 million related to the Company’s Asia-Pacific business,
 
§
royalties and fees of $0.3 million related to Global Draw’s new technology platform,
 
§
debt-related fees and charges of $0.1 million,
 
§
transaction expenses related to the sale of the Racing Business of $0.04 million, and
 
§
stock-based compensation expense of $4.5 million.

By way of comparison, net income for the first quarter of 2010 was impacted by the following items (which are adjustments to “consolidated EBITDA” under the Company’s credit agreement and reflected on a pre-tax basis in attributable EBITDA), presented below on an after-tax basis:
 
§
professional fees and a loss on a foreign currency hedge related to the Italian instant ticket tender process of $0.6 million and $4.0 million, respectively, and
 
§
stock-based compensation expense of $4.4 million.

Printed Products Group
Printed Products Group revenue was $115.6 million in the first quarter of 2011, compared to $112.0 million in the first quarter of 2010.  This increase primarily reflects higher revenue from international customers ($4.4 million) driven by increased sales to LNS.  This was partially offset by a decline in revenue from U.S. customers compared to the prior-year period, principally due to the strong sales in the first quarter of 2010 from the ramp up of new instant ticket lotteries in Arkansas (began in September 2009) and Puerto Rico (began in December 2009), along with the timing of instant ticket sales to certain customers. The Company also realized lower phone card sales compared to the prior-year period ($0.8 million).
 
Operating income of $28.7 million in the first quarter of 2011 increased from $27.3 million in the first quarter of 2010.  This improvement was primarily the result of higher revenue versus the prior-year period.

 
 

 

Lottery Systems Group
Lottery Systems Group revenue was $56.4 million in the first quarter of 2011, compared to revenue of $57.9 million in the first quarter of 2010.  These results reflect a 2.1% increase in service revenue, primarily due to higher retail sales of Mega Millions® games as a result of larger jackpots and an increase in instant ticket validation revenue in the U.S. ($2.0 million), along with an increase in instant ticket validation revenue in China ($1.3 million).  The service revenue increase was partially offset by the loss of contracts in New Hampshire and Vermont in July 2010 ($2.1 million) and the rate reduction in China. The decline in sales revenue was primarily the result of a large hardware order to a European customer in the prior-year period.

Operating income was $10.1 million in the first quarter of 2011, compared to operating income of $7.6 million in the first quarter of 2010. This increase was primarily the result of a higher and more profitable mix of service revenue versus the prior-year period, as well as a benefit from the favorable resolution of a legal matter ($1.1 million) and a reduction in communication costs ($0.7 million).

China Sports Lottery retail sales increased by 37.7% in the first quarter of 2011 versus the prior-year period, primarily driven by the introduction of new 20 RMB price-point games and the first NBA® branded instant ticket, expansion of the retailer and validation network, along with the launch of a significant advertising campaign.

Diversified Gaming Group
Diversified Gaming Group revenue was $24.6 million in the first quarter of 2011, compared to revenue of $46.5 million in the first quarter of 2010. The decrease in revenue was principally due to the sale of the Racing Business. Excluding the Racing Business in the first quarter of 2010 ($24.5 million), Diversified Gaming Group revenue increased by $2.7 million, or 12.3%, in the first quarter of 2011 versus the prior-year period. This increase primarily reflects the roll-out of approximately 4,300 Global Draw terminals to Ladbrokes betting shops in the U.K and increased revenue from other U.K. customers ($2.6 million), including customers obtained through the Sceptre Leisure Solutions acquisition (completed in the second quarter of 2010), along with higher revenue from customers in the Caribbean and Mexico ($0.5 million).

Operating loss was $2.3 million in the first quarter of 2011, compared to operating income of $3.4 million in the first quarter of 2010.  This decline primarily reflected an increase in the cost of services related to the roll-out of terminals across the Ladbrokes estate, the loss of operating income due to the sale of the Racing Business ($2.6 million) and accelerated depreciation of Global Draw’s legacy platform technology ($5.2 million).  Excluding the results of the Racing Business in the first quarter of 2010, Diversified Gaming Group’s operating profit was $0.8 million, compared to an operating loss of $2.3 million in the current-year period.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
At March 31, 2011, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $118.6 million and availability under its revolving credit facility of $198.0 million.  The Company had total indebtedness of $1,392.5 million as of March 31, 2011, compared to $1,396.7 million as of December 31, 2010.

The Company continued to manage working capital and focus on higher returns on capital while investing in growth, resulting in free cash flow of $26.8 million in the first quarter of 2011.  Total capital expenditures in the first quarter were approximately $21.8 million, along with approximately $27.7 million in investments in joint ventures primarily related to the Ladbrokes terminal roll-out and the Illinois private management agreement.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Attributable EBITDA, as used herein, is based on the definition of "consolidated EBITDA" in our credit agreement (summarized below), except that attributable EBITDA as used herein includes our share of the EBITDA of all of our joint ventures (whereas "consolidated EBITDA" for purposes of the credit agreement generally includes our share of the EBITDA of our Italian joint venture but only the income of our other joint ventures to the extent it has been distributed to us).  Attributable EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that is presented herein as a supplemental disclosure and is reconciled to net income (loss) in a schedule below.

Attributable EBITDA includes adjustments only to the extent contemplated by the definition of “consolidated EBITDA” in our credit agreement (which adjustments are summarized in the paragraph below). Note that the adjustment referred to in clause (9) in the paragraph below was added to the definition of “consolidated EBITDA” as part of the March 11, 2011 amendment to our credit agreement.

 
 

 

"Consolidated EBITDA" means, for any period, "consolidated net income" as defined in the credit agreement (i.e., generally our consolidated net income (or loss) excluding the income (or deficit) of our joint ventures (other than our Italian joint venture) except to the extent that such income has been distributed to us) for such period plus, to the extent deducted in calculating such consolidated net income for such period, the sum of (1) income tax expense, (2) depreciation and amortization expense, (3) interest expense (other than any interest expense of our Italian joint venture in respect of debt for borrowed money of such joint venture if such debt exceeds $25,000,000 in the aggregate), (4) amortization or write-off of debt discount and debt issuance costs and commissions, discounts and other fees and charges associated with debt (see line item captioned “Debt-Related Fees and Charges” in the schedules below), (5) amortization of intangibles (including goodwill) and organization costs (see line item captioned “Amortization of Intangibles” in the schedules below), (6) earn-out payments with respect to certain acquisitions that we have made, such as our acquisition of Global Draw, or any other “permitted acquisitions” (generally, acquisitions of companies that are primarily engaged in the same or related line of business and that become subsidiaries of ours, or acquisitions of all or substantially all of the assets of another company or division or business unit of another company), including any loss or expense with respect to such earn-out payments (see line item captioned “Earn-Outs for Permitted Acquisitions” in the schedules below), (7) extraordinary charges or losses determined in accordance with GAAP, (8) non-cash stock-based compensation expenses, (9) any cash compensation expense incurred but not paid in such period so long as no cash payment in respect thereof is made or required to be made prior to the scheduled maturity of the borrowings under the credit agreement (see line item captioned “Deferred Contingent Compensation Expense” in the schedules below), (10) up to $3,000,000 of expenses, charges or losses resulting from certain Peru investments (see line item captioned “Peru Investment Expenses, Charges or Losses” in the schedules below), (11) the non-cash portion of any non-recurring write-offs or write-downs as required in accordance with GAAP (see line item captioned “Non-Recurring Write-Offs under GAAP” in the schedules below), (12) advisory fees and related expenses paid to advisory firms in connection with “permitted acquisitions” (see line item captioned “Acquisition Advisory Fees” in the schedules below), (13) certain specified "permitted add-backs" (i.e., (A) up to $15,000,000 (less the amount of certain permitted pro forma adjustments to consolidated EBITDA in connection with material acquisitions) of charges incurred during any 12-month period in connection with (i) reductions in workforce, (ii) contract losses, discontinued operations, shutdown expenses and cost reduction initiatives, (iii) transaction expenses incurred in connection with potential acquisitions and divestitures, whether or not consummated, and (iv) restructuring charges and transaction expenses incurred in connection with certain transactions with Playtech Limited or its affiliates, and (B) reasonable and customary costs incurred in connection with amendments to the credit agreement) (see line item captioned “Specified Permitted Add-Backs” in the schedules below) (provided that the foregoing items (1) through (13) do not include write-offs or write-downs of accounts receivable or inventory and, except with respect to “permitted add-backs”, any write-off or write-down to the extent it is in respect of cash payments to be made in a future period), (14) to the extent treated as an expense in the period paid or incurred, certain payments, costs and obligations made or incurred by us in connection with any award of a concession to operate the instant ticket lottery in Italy, including any up-front fee required under the applicable tender process (see line item captioned “Italian Concession Obligations” in the schedules below), (15) restructuring charges, transaction expenses and shutdown expenses incurred in connection with the disposition of all or part of our racing and venue management businesses, together with any charges incurred in connection with discontinued operations and cost-reduction initiatives associated with such disposition, in an aggregate amount (for all periods combined) not to exceed $7,325,000 (see line item captioned “Racing Disposition Charges and Expenses” in the schedules below) and (16) up to 5,250,000 pounds Sterling during any four-quarter period of expenses or charges incurred in connection with the payment of license royalties or other fees to Playtech Limited or its affiliates and for software services provided to Global Draw or Games Media by Playtech Limited or its affiliates (see line item captioned “Playtech Royalties and Fees” in the schedules below), minus, to the extent included in the statement of such consolidated net income for such period, the sum of (1) interest income, (2) extraordinary income or gains determined in accordance with GAAP and (3) income or gains with respect to earn-out payments with respect to acquisitions referred to above (see line item captioned “Income on Earn-Outs for Permitted Acquisitions” in the schedules below), provided that the aggregate amount of “consolidated EBITDA” that is attributable to the Company’s interest in its Italian joint venture that would not have otherwise been permitted to be included in Consolidated EBITDA prior to giving effect to the March 11, 2011 amendment to the credit agreement will be capped at $25,000,000 in any period of four consecutive fiscal quarters (or $30,000,000 in the case of any such period ending on or prior to June 30, 2012).  “Consolidated EBITDA” is also subject to certain adjustments in connection with material acquisitions and dispositions as provided in the credit agreement.  The foregoing definitions of “consolidated net income” and “consolidated EBITDA” are qualified in their entirety by the full text of such definitions in our credit agreement as amended by the March 11, 2011 amendment thereto, copies of which are attached as Exhibits 10.1 to our Current Reports on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 19, 2010 and March 14, 2011, respectively.

Free cash flow, as included herein, represents net cash provided by operating activities less total capital expenditures (which includes wagering systems expenditures and other intangible assets and software expenditures).  Free cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure that is presented herein as a supplemental disclosure and is reconciled to net cash provided by operating activities in a schedule below. 

Joint venture EBITDA, as included herein, represents our share of our joint ventures’ EBITDA, which is defined as equity in earnings of our joint ventures (whether or not any such earnings have been distributed to us) plus income tax expense, depreciation and amortization expense and interest (income) expense, net of other.  Joint venture EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that is presented herein as a supplemental disclosure and is reconciled to equity in earnings of joint ventures in a schedule below.

The Company’s management uses the foregoing non-GAAP financial measures in conjunction with GAAP financial measures to: monitor and evaluate the performance of the Company’s business operations, as well as the performance of its joint ventures, which have become a more significant part of the Company’s business; facilitate management’s internal comparisons of the Company’s historical operating performance of its business operations; facilitate management’s external comparisons of the results of its overall business to the historical operating performance of other companies that may have different capital structures and debt levels; review and assess the operating performance of the Company’s management team; analyze and evaluate financial and strategic planning decisions regarding future operating investments; and plan for and prepare future annual operating budgets and determine appropriate levels of operating investments.  Accordingly, the Company’s management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors to provide them with disclosures of the Company’s operating results on the same basis as that used by the Company’s management.

 
 

 

In addition, the Company’s management believes that attributable EBITDA is helpful in assessing the overall operating performance of the Company and its joint ventures and highlighting trends in the Company’s and its joint ventures’ core businesses that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on GAAP financial measures, because this non-GAAP financial measure eliminates from the Company’s and its joint ventures’ earnings financial items that management believes have less bearing on the Company’s and its joint ventures’ performance, such as income tax expense, depreciation and amortization expense and interest (income) expense.  Moreover, management believes attributable EBITDA is useful to investors because a significant and increasing amount of the Company’s business is from its joint ventures.  Management further believes that attributable EBITDA and free cash flow provide useful information regarding the Company’s liquidity and its ability to service debt and fund investments.  Management believes that joint venture EBITDA is helpful in monitoring the financial performance of the Company’s joint ventures and eliminates from the joint ventures’ earnings financial items that management believes have less bearing on the joint ventures’ performance.

The Company’s management also believes attributable EBITDA is useful to investors because the definition is derived from the definition of “consolidated EBITDA” in our credit agreement, which is used to calculate the Company’s compliance with the financial covenants contained in the credit agreement.  Moreover, attributable EBITDA and free cash flow (calculated by subtracting total capital expenditures (which includes wagering systems expenditures and other intangible assets and software expenditures) from attributable EBITDA) are metrics used in determining performance-based bonuses for 2011 (subject to certain additional adjustments in the discretion of the Compensation Committee (e.g., to take into account acquisitions, divestitures, sign-on or guaranteed bonuses approved by the Compensation Committee and accounting changes during the year)).

Accordingly, the Company’s management believes that the presentation of the non-GAAP financial measures, when used in conjunction with GAAP financial measures, provides both management and investors with financial information that can be useful in assessing the Company’s financial condition and operating performance.

The non-GAAP financial measures used herein should not be considered in isolation of, as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP.  The non-GAAP financial measures as defined in this press release may differ from similarly titled measures presented by other companies. The non-GAAP financial measures, as well as other information in this press release, should be read in conjunction with the Company’s financial statements filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
