ABOUT VENDINGDATA CORPORATION

 

We were originally incorporated in the State of Washington on September 21, 1995, and reincorporated through a merger in Nevada on March 4, 1999. In March 2000, we amended our articles of incorporation to change our corporate name from “Casinovations Incorporated” to “CVI Technology, Inc.” In June 2000, we again amended our articles of incorporation to change our name from “CVI Technology, Inc.” to “VendingData Corporation.”

 

We develop, manufacture, sell and lease products for the gaming industry that are intended to increase our customers’ security, productivity and profitability. Since inception, we have invested in excess of $40 million to set up the company and develop our products. Our products are categorized as table game support products or casino revenue control system products.

 

Table Game Support Products

 

Our table game support products are:

 

    The Deck Checker, a card security device that scans decks of playing cards to ensure an accurate count and verifies that all of the cards are present.

 

    The Random Ejection Shuffler, a shuffling device that is capable of shuffling between one and eight decks of cards.

 

    The Continuous Random Ejection Shuffler, a shuffling device that continuously shuffles and recycles the same group of between one and eight decks of cards.

 

    The Random Plus Shuffler, our next generation of shufflers and updated version of the Random Ejection Shuffler and the Continuous Random Ejection Shuffler, which will enter the domestic market in the second quarter of 2005.


Table of Contents
    The PokerOne Shuffler, a high-speed card-shuffler designed for use with single deck poker variation games.

 

The Deck Checker specifically scans playing cards to ensure an accurate count and verifies whether all of the cards in a deck of cards are present. This product confirms the integrity of each card and will reject any non-conforming cards. The Deck Checker has multiple uses and can be used in the back of the house (casino support departments) to reduce labor costs by expediting the verification process of used cards, or it can be used in the front of the house (the casino floor) to ensure that all table games open with complete and accurate decks, reducing the amount of time it takes to open a table game, thereby increasing productivity. The Deck Checker can scan from one deck to up to eight decks at a time, can scan each deck in less than 15 seconds, is programmed for all standard playing cards, accommodates plastic, paper and plastic coated playing cards and is programmed with many standard card games.

 

The Random Ejection Shuffler is a batch shuffler that is capable of shuffling between one and eight decks of cards. The patented technology used in the Random Ejection Shuffler is designed to produce an independent card selection in that any card may be ejected from the card tray at any time and restacked in an unpredictable manner. While most shuffling machines repeat the same mechanical action, each shuffle in the Random Ejection Shuffler is random. In the batch mode, the Random Ejection Shuffler can shuffle six decks of cards in approximately three minutes and, due to the speed of the shuffler, neutralize card counting.

 

In contrast, the Continuous Random Ejection Shuffler continuously recycles the same group of cards. After each play, the cards are returned to the shuffler, and a new batch is used for play. The Continuous Random Ejection Shuffler provides operator security by neutralizing card counters and locaters, while increasing player satisfaction derived from a hand-held game. The cards may also be loaded and dealt from a traditional card-dealing shoe.

 

In addition to the foregoing, we have developed a new generation of the Random Ejection Shuffler and the Continuous Random Ejection Shuffler, referred to as the RandomPlus Shuffler, which will include additional features, such as the switch in power from alternating current, or AC, to direct current, or DC, conversion to an external power supply, redesign of the cabinet, and the addition of an external lever to adjust the shuffler for card thickness. We anticipate conducting field trials of the RandomPlus Shuffler in North America by the end of the second quarter of 2005.

 

The PokerOne Shuffler is designed for use with single deck poker variation games. The cycle time with the PokerOne Shuffler is less than ten seconds. The PokerOne Shuffler uses our patented Random Ejection technology to ensure a true, mathematically random shuffle. This technology restacks the cards in an unpredictable manner in an attempt to negate the advantages achieved by expert players. As a result of a lawsuit filed by Shuffle Master, Inc., our ability to sell this product in the United States is currently the subject of litigation.

 

Casino Revenue Control System Products—SecureDrop® System

 

Our casino revenue control system, or the SecureDrop® System, enables gaming operators to more efficiently and securely track paper currency and coins from the time they are deposited in slot machines or handed to dealers at table games on the casino floor through the time the paper currency and coins are delivered to the “count room,” the location where all gaming proceeds from table games, slot machines and various other games are collected and counted by the casino operator. The products that comprise our SecureDrop® System are:

 

    The SecureDrop® Soft Count Module, a bill (paper currency) canister identification system that enables gaming operators to electronically track, secure and identify all bill canisters on the casino floor and in the count room.

 

— 2 —


Table of Contents
    The SecureDrop® Hard Count Module, a coin (hard currency) bucket identification system that enables gaming operators to electronically track, secure and identify all slot machine coin buckets on the casino floor and in the count room.

 

The SecureDrop® Soft Count Module enables gaming operators to electronically track, secure and identify all bill canisters on the casino floor and in the count room. The SecureDrop® time stamp system deters canister switching, theft and loss by recording all phases of the soft drop process, accounting for the bill canister’s removal from the gaming machine, the time the bill canister is in transport and the time of the bill canister’s arrival in the casino’s soft count room. Through the SecureDrop® database system, all bill canisters can be identified, tracked and accounted for with a high degree of security.

 

The SecureDrop® Hard Count Module provides a bucket identification system that enables gaming operators to electronically track and identify all buckets and slot machines, secure the coins immediately and we believe, in essence, brings the hard count room to the casino’s slot floor. The heart of the SecureDrop® Hard Count Module is the electronic bucket featuring the patented SecureDrop® identification technology. The smart bucket works with enhanced controls inside the slot machine to record the ID number and meter readings of the slot machine. Specially designed SecureDrop® multi-bin coin vaults are used to secure the coins on the casino’s slot floor.

 

The SecureDrop® time stamp system helps to deter theft and loss by recording all phases of the drop process. After the buckets are weighed, that data gathered and the coins secured, the cleared buckets can be returned to any slot machine. Any coin variance is immediately identified, and steps can be taken to correct the problem. When used with the SecureDrop® mobile command center, the SecureDrop® Hard Count Module allows operators to utilize a single-bucket drop system. Using the comprehensive SecureDrop® database system, all drop buckets can be identified, tracked and accounted for with a high degree of security.

 

Business Strategy

 

Since our transition from a development stage company in 2000, we have continued to focus on efforts designed to increase revenues and margins. Through our new management team led by Mark R. Newburg, we will focus our efforts on our table game support products, such as the Deck Checker, PokerOne Shuffler and RandomPlus Shuffler. In this regard, we expanded into international gaming markets through our distributor agreement with TCSJohnHuxley, a U.K. based worldwide distributor of products to the gaming industry. In addition, we will be evaluating the appropriate marketing strategy for our existing SecureDrop® System. Further, in our attempt to control costs and increase gross margins on our products, we have relocated most of our component manufacturing, sub-assembly, storage and Asian sales operations facility for all our products to Xiaolan Town in Zhongshan City, China.

RISK FACTORS

 

You should carefully consider all of the material risks of our business, including those described below, in addition to the other information contained in this prospectus before investing in any of our common stock offered hereby. This prospectus contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. Factors that may cause such differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed below as well as those discussed elsewhere in this prospectus.

 

RISKS RELATED TO VENDINGDATA

 

Given our recurring losses and accumulated deficits, we must manage our liquidity.

 

Our financial statements report recurring losses and accumulated deficits. Based on presently known commitments and plans, we believe that we will be able to fund our operations and required expenditures through the fourth quarter of 2005 from cash on hand, cash flow from operations and cash from debt or equity financings or from lease financing sources. If we are unable to generate a sufficient amount of sales of our products to fund our operations, we will need to seek cash from private or public placements of debt or equity, institutional or other lending sources, to sell certain assets or to change operating plans to accommodate our liquidity issues. As result of certain restrictions on our ability to incur additional indebtedness under the Senior Notes, we may not be able to obtain other liquidity sources as may be necessary to fund our operations in the future.

 

We have a history of significant operating losses and anticipate continued operating losses, and we may be unable to achieve profitability.

 

We have a history of significant operating losses and anticipate continued operating losses for the foreseeable future. For the three months ended March 31, 2005 and the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003, we have incurred net losses of $2,494,085, $7,149,194 and $7,812,089, respectively, and our operations have used $2,585,971, $10,660,133 and $11,731,150 of cash, respectively. As of March 31, 2005, December 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003, we had accumulated deficits of $54,225,626, $51,731,541 and $44,582,347, respectively. If we are unable to generate a positive cash flow in 2005, we will be required to locate additional sources of capital. If our revenues do not increase very substantially, or if our spending levels exceed our expectations, we will not become profitable. Revenues may not grow in the future, and we may not generate sufficient revenues for profitability. If we become profitable, we may not be able to sustain profitable operations.

 

We may not be able to satisfy the conditions for the release of all of the proceeds from the Senior Notes that are presently held in escrow.

 

Pursuant to the terms of the Senior Notes, our access to $6,750,000 in proceeds is subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions by June 30, 2005:

 

    The execution of a distributor agreement with TCSJohnHuxley or an affiliate thereof and the sale and service outside the United States of 100 units of our RandomPlus Shuffler and our PokerOne Shuffler;

 

    The hiring of a North American manager of operations or a chief operating officer; and

 

    The approval of our RandomPlus Shuffler by Gaming Laboratories International and the Nevada State Gaming Control Board and the placement of 100 units of our RandomPlus shuffler in North America.

 

— 5 —


Table of Contents

As of May 20, 2005, the first and the second escrow condition above have been met. As to the third escrow condition, we need only place 100 units of our RandomPlus shuffler in North America. Once we satisfy this remaining condition, we will have access to the remaining $2,250,000. If we fail to meet the remaining condition, we will return the relevant portion of the escrowed proceeds, without interest, within 30 days of June 30, 2005. The failure to meet the remaining condition will have a negative and potentially materially adverse impact on our liquidity.

 

Our stockholders may not approve the increase in our authorized shares, which is required to ensure a sufficient number of shares are available upon the conversion of the March Senior Notes, if at all.

 

As of May 20, 2005, we have 25,000,000 shares of common stock authorized and 16,751,505 shares of common stock outstanding. In addition, as of May 20, 2005, we have issued stock options to purchase 3,332,722 shares of common stock, warrants to purchase 2,585,553 shares of common stock and February Senior Notes convertible into 3,636,353 shares of common stock. Due to the shares outstanding and shares reserved as of May 20, 2005, we do not have a sufficient number of authorized shares remaining to cover the shares issuable upon the conversion of the March Senior Notes, if at all. Accordingly, our board of directors has already authorized an amendment to our articles of incorporation so as to increase our total authorized number of shares. However, since our stockholders must also approve the amendment to our articles of incorporation and although we expect our stockholders to approve said amendment, there is no guarantee of such a result. If the stockholders do not approve of the amendment, we will be in breach under the terms of the March Senior Notes.

 

The demand for our products may be insufficient to generate enough revenues to sustain our operations.

 

If we fail to generate sufficient demand for our products, we may be unable to sustain operations or generate a return to investors. Until January 2000, we were in the development stage and derived minimal revenues from our products. Currently we are an operating company that continues to develop new products. Since January 2000, our activities have been limited to analyzing and consulting with persons in the gaming industry, developing and manufacturing new products, establishing distribution networks for our products, marketing our products to the gaming industry, and commencing product sales. During such time, we have derived only limited revenues, which have been insufficient to sustain our operations. We may not generate sufficient revenue to sustain our operations. No independent organization has conducted market research providing management with independent assurance from which to estimate potential demand for our products. The overall market may not be receptive to our products, and we may not successfully compete in the target market for our products.

 

We place our leased shufflers in casinos under short-term lease arrangements, which makes these products susceptible to replacement due to pressure from competitors, changes in economic conditions, obsolescence and declining popularity.

 

All of our leased shufflers are placed with customers under short-term lease arrangements, which, unlike long-term leases or permanent sales of our products, can easily be terminated by a dissatisfied customer. The manner in which such short-term leases are structured puts our shufflers at greater risk of replacement due to pressure from competitors, changes in economic conditions, obsolescence and declining popularity. Casino operators may terminate the use of our products, and we may not be able to maintain and expand the number of installed shufflers through enhancement of existing shufflers, introduction of new shufflers, customer service or otherwise.

Table of Contents

Since a significant number of our leasing agreements and purchase contracts with extended payment terms permit the customer to return our products at any time, we may be required to record a charge to bad debt expense which would, in turn, adversely impact our results from operations.

 

Due to the competitive environment in which we operate, we have agreed to provisions in a significant number of our leasing agreements and purchase contracts with extended payment terms that permit the customer to return our products at any time with no further monetary obligation to us. In the event that we have recorded all of the revenue that would have been received from the relevant leasing agreement or purchase contract, we will then be require to record a charge against bad debt expense. As a result, our operating results for the relevant period in which the charge is taken will be adversely impacted.

 

Our ability to compete may be damaged and our revenues may be reduced if we are unable to protect our intellectual property rights adequately.

 

Our success depends upon maintaining the confidentiality and proprietary nature of our intellectual property rights. Our ability to compete may be damaged, and our revenues may be reduced if we are unable to protect our intellectual property rights adequately. To protect these rights, we rely principally on a combination of:

 

    contractual arrangements providing for non-disclosure and prohibitions on use;

 

    patents and pending patent applications;

 

    trade secret, copyright and trademark laws; and

 

    certain built-in technical product features.

 

Patent, trade secret, copyright and trademark laws provide limited protection. The protections provided by laws governing intellectual property rights do not prevent our competitors from developing, independently, products similar or superior to our products and technologies. In addition, effective protection of copyrights, trade secrets, trademarks, and other proprietary rights may be unavailable or limited in certain foreign countries. We may be unaware of certain non-publicly available patent applications, which, if issued as patents, could relate to our services and products as currently designed or as we may modify them in the future. Legal or regulatory proceedings to enforce our patents, trademarks or copyrights could be costly, time consuming, and could divert the attention of management and technical personnel.

 

Adverse results in current litigation could result in substantial monetary damages and adversely impact the manufacture and sale of certain of our shuffler products.

 

Shuffle Master, our principal competitor in the shuffler market, has filed two lawsuits against us for patent infringement. The first suit alleges that our shufflers violate two of its patents concerning registering use of a playing card shuffler apparatus and the displaying of the use on a display. The second lawsuit alleges that our PokerOne Shuffler violates two of its patents concerning the card moving mechanism. Shuffle Master seeks treble damages, which, if awarded, could result in us owing it substantial sums of money, and, if large enough, could have a material adverse effect on our liquidity and our ability to conduct operations. Although we believe our position to be meritorious, litigation of this nature is a drain on our cash resources and our management’s time. Although Shuffle Master has asserted patent infringement claims and we have reasonable defenses to the same, we cannot determine whether we will prevail in these lawsuits, nor whether damages, if awarded, would significantly impact our ability to continue to manufacture and sell particular products within the United States and its territories. If we do not prevail, we will be unable to sell our shuffler products in the United States unless we change certain components used in the shufflers or obtain a license from Shuffle Master to use the playing card shuffler apparatus and the display. The preliminary injunction that Shuffle Master obtained against us in November 2004 prevented us from selling our PokerOne Shuffler in the United States. An appellate court stayed the injunction in March 2005. Similarly, we cannot determine whether Shuffle Master will assert other litigation claims based upon other patents it may currently or in the future own, nor can we determine the likely outcome of any such litigation or whether any such substantial litigation would have a material adverse effect on our business as presently conducted or as anticipated.

 

— 7 —


Table of Contents

We believe that it is likely that our future products will be the subject of future patent litigation if the products are sold and installed in the United States and, if commenced, could subject us to continuing litigation costs and risks.

 

Other than the allegations made by Shuffle Master discussed above, we are not aware of any claims or basis for our current products infringing on the proprietary rights of third parties. To the extent that we introduce new products that incorporate the same or similar technology, it is likely that Shuffle Master will bring one or more claims against us seeking damages, injunctive or other equitable relief, or both. We cannot predict the outcome of any future litigation that may occur.

 

If our future products incorporate technology that infringes the proprietary rights of third parties and we do not secure licenses from them, we could be liable for substantial damages that would cause a material reduction in revenues and impair our prospects for achieving growth and profitability.

 

In furtherance of the development of our services or products, we may need to acquire licenses for intellectual property to avoid infringement of third party rights or claims of infringement. These licenses may not be available on commercially reasonable terms, if at all. Claims for infringement, if made, could damage our business prospects, our results of operations and financial condition, whether or not the claims have merit, by:

 

    consuming substantial time and financial resources required to defend against them;

 

    diverting the attention of management from growing our business and managing operations;

 

    resulting in costly litigation; and

 

    disrupting product sales and shipments.

 

If any third party prevails in an action against us for infringement of its proprietary rights, we could be required to pay damages and either enter into costly licensing arrangements or redesign our products so as to exclude the infringing technology. As a result, we would incur substantial costs and delays in product development, sales and shipments, our revenues may decline substantially and we may not be able to achieve the growth required for us to achieve profitability.

 

Our failure to compete successfully against innovative competitors could adversely impact our ability to sell our products and generate revenues.

 

Our market is characterized by changing technology, periodic product obsolescence and continuous protection of proprietary technology. Our success will depend upon our ability to sell our current products, and to develop successor systems. We will need to introduce new products and features in a timely manner to meet evolving customer requirements. We may not succeed in these efforts. Even if we succeed, products or technologies developed by others may render our products or technologies noncompetitive or obsolete, which would impair our ability to sell our products and reduce our revenue.

 

Scrutiny and attempts by third parties to compromise our products’ security, if successful, could injure product demand and force us to take back impacted products.

 

In the event that our products become susceptible to attacks by third parties that result in a decrease or compromise of the security of our customers’ operations, we will most likely be required to take back our products from existing customers and will lose sales and rentals from prospective customers. Although we have tested our products for security and our products have been tested by certain gaming regulators as part of the approval process, our products may be susceptible to schemes by third parties to defraud the properties where our products are used. Vulnerabilities in the security of our products will almost certainly reduce demand for these products. Our shufflers may become vulnerable to card counters or expert players, and the use of our shufflers may result in financial losses for our customers. The occurrence of any of these events would likely have a material adverse effect on our sales revenues.

Table of Contents

Any conditions that adversely affect the gaming industry could also have a material adverse effect on demand for our products.

 

The success of our business depends solely on the gaming industry where revenues are sensitive to general economic conditions and generally rise or fall rapidly in relation to the condition of the overall economy. Although we cannot accurately estimate the economic impact of past or future terrorist attacks or current international conflicts at this time, the gaming industry has been in the past negatively affected by the reduction in air travel and tourism, and we expect that any significant decline in the economic health or growth of the gaming industry will reduce demand for our products.

 

We are unable to predict the future impact that extraordinary events, such as terrorism, the uncertainty of war and worldwide health concerns, may have on our business and operations.

 

Extraordinary events, such as terrorist attacks, acts of war or worldwide health concerns, may cause damage or disruption to our operations, which, in turn, could significantly impact our revenues, costs and expenses, and financial condition. The terrorist attacks that took place in the United States on September 11, 2001 were unprecedented events that have created many economic and political uncertainties, especially to the gaming industry, some of which have materially adversely affected our business, results of operations, and financial condition and may do so again in the future. In particular, the gaming industry had been affected by the downturn in the tourist industry as a result of the September 11, 2001 attacks. Because our business is directly tied to the gaming industry, the long-term effects from the September 11, 2001 attacks are unknown. The potential for future terrorist attacks, the national and international responses to terrorist attacks, other acts of war or hostility and concerns about the spread of certain diseases, including severe acute respiratory syndrome, or SARS, have created many economic and political uncertainties, which could materially adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition in ways that we currently cannot predict.

 

Supply interruption from our manufacturing facility in China could cause us to fail to supply customer orders on a timely basis.

 

We have centralized most phases of the manufacturing process for our products at our own facility in Xiaolan Town in Zhongshan City, China. We will be adversely impacted if there is an interruption in our ability to receive components or inventory from, or a material increase in labor costs in, China. Factors that may cause a supply interruption include political unrest, closure of ports, worldwide health concerns and other events beyond our control. In the event that our manufacturing operations in Xiaolan Town are interrupted, our ability to fill orders, ship such orders and realize the revenues therefrom could be adversely affected.

 

Our efforts to expand into international markets pose special risks that could adversely affect all of our business.

 

As a result of the opening of our manufacturing facility in China, we are currently operating in international markets. Engaging in business outside of the United States will subject us to the customary risks of doing business in foreign countries. These risks include fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and controls, nationalization and other economic, tax and regulatory policies of local governments and the possibility of trade embargoes, political instability or war or other hostility, as well as the laws and policies of the United States affecting foreign trade and investment. Any one or more of these factors could materially adversely affect our ability to conduct business outside the United States and therefore our business as whole.

Our reliance on distributors in international markets and our limited sales experience in foreign countries could cause us to lose sales and collections on such sales.

 

In general, substantially all sales of our products outside the United States are achieved through distributor relationships. We believe the distributors that we have engaged are experienced and reputable; however, if we are unable to manage these relationships, our ability to generate revenue and profits in the non-U.S. market may be adversely affected. To the extent that we engage in direct sales outside the United States, we have limited sales experience and history in foreign markets.

 

On January 21, 2005, we entered into an exclusive five-year agreement with TCS to market and distribute our shuffler products outside of the United States. However, if TCS is unable to place our shuffler products outside of the United States, our liquidity will be adversely affected.

 

Due to our management’s controlling interest in our common stock, our management has the power to control all matters submitted to our stockholders, which renders non-management stockholders’ efforts to effect substantial changes in our company more difficult.

 

As of May 20, 2005, our executive officers and members of our board beneficially own approximately 7,844,689 shares of common stock, or approximately 46.34% of the outstanding shares of our common stock, assuming exercise or conversion of all options, warrants and convertible debentures held by our executive officers and members of our board that are exercisable within 60 days of May 20, 2005. Assuming the conversion of the Senior Notes and the exercise of the Warrants into 4,084,406 shares, our executive officers and members of our board would beneficially own 37.3% of the outstanding shares of our common stock. Accordingly, these stockholders have the power to control all matters requiring approval by our stockholders, including the election of directors and approval of mergers and other significant corporate transactions. This concentration of ownership also has the effect of delaying, preventing or expediting, as the case may be, a change in control of our company.

 

The loss of our executive officers, significant employees or certain members of our management could adversely impact our operations.

 

Our success is substantially dependent upon the efforts and skills of Mark Newburg, a member of our board of directors and Douglas H. Caszatt, our Acting Chief Financial Officer, Secretary and Controller. We have entered into a consulting agreement with Mr. Newburg and employment agreements with other significant employees. However, if we were to lose the services rendered by any of our executive officers or significant employees, key management, product development and sales functions could be adversely affected. In addition, we compete with other potential employers for employees, and we may not succeed in hiring and retaining the executives and other employees that we need. An inability to hire and retain quality employees could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

RISKS RELATED TO OUR INDUSTRY

 

We face intense competition from companies with longer operating histories, greater resources and more established brand names that could use such advantages to lower our market share and reduce our revenues.

 

There is significant competition in the shuffler market, where we compete with established companies and other entities, most of which possess substantially greater resources than we do. Almost all of the companies with which we compete in the shuffler market are substantially larger, have more substantial histories, backgrounds, experience and records of successful operations, greater financial, technical, marketing and other resources, more employees and more extensive facilities than we now have, or will have in the foreseeable future. It is also likely that other competitors will emerge in the near

future. Other companies may develop products competitive to our SecureDrop® System. We may not be able to compete successfully with other established gaming product manufacturers. Our inability to compete successfully will likely result in loss of market share and lower revenues, or increases in operating costs, such as marketing costs.

 

We face extensive regulation from gaming and other government authorities.

 

The gaming industry is a highly regulated industry and is subject to numerous statutes, rules and regulations administered by the gaming commissions or similar regulatory authorities of each jurisdiction. Generally, companies that seek to introduce gaming products or concepts into such jurisdictions may be required to submit applications relating to their activities or products (including detailed background information concerning controlling persons within their organization), which are then reviewed for approval. In this regard, we have incurred and are likely to continue to incur significant expenses in seeking to obtain licenses for our gaming products, concepts and controlling persons within the company, and our products and controlling persons within the company may not be approved in all jurisdictions. The failure to obtain such approval in any jurisdiction in which we may seek to introduce our products or concepts could have a material adverse effect on our business. Due to recent adverse events with certain limited gaming jurisdictions, we may evaluate operational and other changes and new regulatory procedures to improve our regulatory relationships. In addition, any change to the applicable statutes, rules and regulations that restricts or prevents our ability to operate could have an adverse effect on us.

 

Any person who is the beneficial owner of our common stock or with whom we have a material relationship that fails or refuses to apply for a finding of suitability, or that is found unsuitable for licensing, would be required to dispose of all of our stock.

 

Certain gaming regulatory agencies to which we are subject may investigate any beneficial holder of our voting securities (regardless of the numbers of shares owned), and any individual who has a material relationship or involvement with us, in order to determine whether such individual is suitable or should be licensed as a business associate of ours. In addition, the gaming authorities of various jurisdictions may require our officers, directors and certain key employees to be licensed or found suitable by these gaming authorities, which would require these officers, directors and key employees to submit detailed background information. Any person who fails or refuses to apply for a finding of suitability or a license after being ordered to do so by gaming regulatory agencies may be found unsuitable, and we could be subject to adverse regulatory action. In the event that the gaming authorities were to find an officer, director, key employee, stockholder, or any other individual that has a material relationship with us, unsuitable for licensing or unsuitable to continue having a relationship with us, we would have to sever all relationships with that individual, and that individual would be required to dispose of all of our stock. This could result in the loss of key persons critical to our success or in significant selling pressure on our stock if such persons are required to dispose of shares of our common stock in an amount that exceeds typical trading volumes in our shares.

 

Our focus on products for the gaming industry subjects us to greater risk than we would have if we marketed our products to multiple industries.

 

We design and manufacture products and concepts solely for the gaming industry and depend almost exclusively on our ability to generate revenues from the rental or sale of our products to customers in the gaming industry. The economic health of the gaming industry, and, therefore, our revenues, are affected by a number of factors beyond our control, including:

 

    general economic conditions, such as recession, inflation, business cycle fluctuations and interest rates;

 

    levels of disposable income of gaming property patrons;

 

— 11 —


Table of Contents
    acts of terrorism and anti-terrorism efforts;

 

    increased transportation costs resulting in decreased travel by gaming patrons;

 

    changes or proposed changes in tax laws;

 

    legal and regulatory issues affecting the development, operation and licensing of our gaming customers; and

 

    competitive conditions in the gaming industry.

 

These factors may adversely impact the demand for our products and materially affect the revenues that we realize on the sale or placement of our products.

 

RISKS RELATED TO OUR COMMON STOCK

 

Our common stock is thinly traded, so our stockholders may have difficulty in trading large amounts of stock or may lose the total value of their investment.

 

There had been no trading market for our common stock until September 10, 2003, when our common stock became eligible for quotation on the OTC Bulletin Board. It was not until May 4, 2004, that our common stock began trading on AMEX. Due to the limited trading volume of our common stock, an active trading and/or a liquid market may be difficult to sustain. Moreover, in the event that we are unable to continue as a going concern and we are dissolved or otherwise terminated, you could lose your entire investment in our common stock. Investment in our common stock is at risk of complete loss if our operations are unsuccessful.

 

Investors seeking guaranteed dividend-paying investments should not invest in our common stock.

 

Our operations may not become profitable. If we become profitable, we intend to use any earnings that may be generated to finance the growth of our business. Any payment of future dividends will be at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend on, among other things, our earnings, financial condition, capital requirements, level of indebtedness, statutory and contractual restrictions applying to the payment of dividends, and other considerations that our board of directors deems relevant. Accordingly, stockholders may have to sell some or all of their common stock in order to generate cash flow from their investment. Stockholders may not realize a gain on their investment, and they may lose all or a significant amount of their investment when they sell their common stock.

 

If we are unable to generate sufficient revenue to provide the cash required to fund our operations in the future, we may be required to issue additional equity or convertible debt securities to provide our operations with additional working capital, which, in turn, will have the effect of diluting the relative ownership of our existing stockholders.

 

We have supplemented the cash deficit arising from our operations with the proceeds from the Senior Notes, and will, if necessary, continue to supplement with cash from private or public placements of debt or equity, institutional or other lending sources. Although we have also utilized convertible debt securities and warrants to raise capital in the past, we are limited under the terms and conditions of the Senior Notes to incur additional debt. The issuance of additional equity or convertible debt securities will have the effect of reducing the percentage ownership of our current stockholders. In addition, these equity or convertible debt securities may have additional rights, preferences or privileges to those of our common stock, such as registration rights and preferences in liquidation. In the event we are required to raise additional funds to support our operations, additional funds may not be available on terms favorable to our company, or at all. If adequate funds are not available or are not available on acceptable terms, we may not be able to fund our operations or otherwise continue as a going concern.

Shares eligible for sale in the near future may cause the market price for our common stock to decline.

 

In addition to the number of shares registered on behalf of Selling Stockholders and excluding the shares held by our executive officers and directors, as of May 20, 2005, we have approximately 9,082,917 shares of common stock that are either freely tradable pursuant to Rule 144(k) of the Securities Act of 1933, or the Securities Act, or have previously been registered by us through a registration statement filed with the SEC. As such, the future sale of a substantial number of shares of our common stock in market transactions, or the perception that these sales could occur, may depress the market price for our common stock. These sales could also impair our ability to raise additional capital through the sale of our equity securities in the future.

 

Our board of directors may issue blank check preferred stock, which may affect the voting rights of our holders and could deter or delay an attempt to obtain control of us.

 

Our board of directors is authorized, without stockholder approval, to issue preferred stock in series and to fix and state the voting rights and powers, designation, preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special rights of the shares of each such series and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof. Preferred stock may rank prior to our common stock with respect to dividends rights, liquidation preferences, or both, and may have full or limited voting rights. Accordingly, issuance of shares of preferred stock could adversely affect the voting power of holders of our common stock and could have the effect of deterring or delaying an attempt to obtain control of us.

 

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

This prospectus contains and incorporates by reference “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act which reflect our current view (as of the date such forward-looking statements are made) with respect to future events, our operations, prospects, projections, financial condition or economic performance. The words “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “project,” and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of the statement made. These forward-looking statements should be read with caution as they are subject to certain uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those made, implied or projected in such statements. Factors that could cause these differences include, but are not limited to, those described under “Risk Factors.” Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances arising after the date of this prospectus, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

 

USE OF PROCEEDS

 

We will not receive any proceeds from the resale of the shares by the Selling Stockholders. Although we have agreed to bear the expenses of the registration of the shares of common stock registered pursuant to this registration statement, we will not be responsible for any commissions and discounts of agents or broker-dealers and transfer taxes, if any, incurred by Selling Stockholders.

SELLING STOCKHOLDERS

 

This prospectus relates to the offering and sale, from time to time, of up to 4,084,406 shares of common stock by the Selling Stockholders named in the table below. All of the Selling Stockholders named below will acquire the shares of common stock that are the subject of this prospectus in private transactions from the conversion of the Senior Notes into 3,636,353 shares and the exercise of the Warrants into 448,053 shares.

 

The following table sets forth certain information known to us regarding ownership of our issued and outstanding shares held by the Selling Stockholders, as of May 20, 2005, and as adjusted to reflect the sale of the shares offered hereby. The table assumes that all Selling Stockholders will either fully exercise their right to convert their Senior Notes into shares of common stock or exercise their Warrants. The table below also assumes that the Selling Stockholders will sell all of the shares registered on their behalf pursuant to this prospectus, and neither dispose of nor acquire any additional shares. Since the Selling Stockholders may sell all, some or none of their shares, we are unable to determine the exact number of shares that will actually be sold or when or if these sales will occur.

 

The beneficial ownership is calculated based on 16,751,505 shares of our common stock outstanding as of May 20, 2005 and, assuming the issuance of all 4,084,406 shares upon the conversion of the Senior Notes and the exercise of the Warrants, 20,835,911 shares of common stock will be outstanding after the offering. Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the SEC and generally includes voting or investment power with respect to securities. Unless otherwise indicated, each person or entity named in the table has sole voting power and investment power, or shares voting and investment power with his or her spouse, with respect to all shares of capital stock listed as owned by such person. The information with respect to beneficial ownership of common stock held by each person is based upon record ownership data provided by our transfer agent, information as supplied or confirmed by Selling Stockholders or based upon our actual knowledge.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

 

We are registering the shares of common stock offered for sale by this prospectus on behalf of the Selling Stockholders. As used in this section, “Selling Stockholders” include donees, pledgees, distributees, transferees or other successors-in-interest, including, without limitation, their respective affiliates and limited or general partners, all of which are referred to as a group below as transferees. Selling Stockholders will act independently of us in making decisions with respect to the timing, manner and size of each sale.

 

We will pay all reasonable costs, expenses and fees directly related to the registration of the shares with the SEC. Selling Stockholders will pay all brokerage commissions, underwriting discounts, commissions, transfer taxes and other similar selling expenses, including their attorneys’ fees, if any, associated with the sale of the shares of common stock by them. Shares of common stock may be sold by Selling Stockholders, from time to time, in one or more types of transactions (which may include block transactions) on AMEX or on any other market on which our common stock may, from time to time, be trading, in the over-the-counter market, in privately-negotiated transactions, through put or call options transactions relating to the shares, through short sales of such shares, or a combination of such methods of sale, at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, fixed prices, varying prices determined at the time of sale or at negotiated prices.

 

Selling Stockholders will have the sole discretion not to accept any purchase offer or make any sale of shares if they deem the purchase price to be unsatisfactory at any particular time. Such transactions may, or may not, involve brokers or dealers. To the best of our knowledge, Selling Stockholders have not entered into any agreements, understandings or arrangements with any underwriters or broker-dealers regarding the sale of their securities, nor is there an underwriter or coordinating broker acting in connection with the proposed sale of shares of common stock offered by this prospectus; however, Selling Stockholders may enter into agreements, understandings or arrangements with an underwriter or broker-dealer regarding the sale of their shares in the future.

 

Selling Stockholders may effect such transactions by selling shares of common stock directly to purchasers or through broker-dealers, which may act as agents or principals, or other agents. Such broker-dealers or other agents may receive compensation in the form of discounts, concessions, or commissions from Selling Stockholders and/or the purchasers of shares of common stock for whom such broker-dealers or other agents may act as agents or to whom they sell as principal, or both (which compensation as to a particular broker-dealer or other agent might be in excess of customary commissions). Market makers and block purchasers purchasing the shares will do so for their own account and at their own risk. It is possible that a Selling Stockholder will attempt to sell shares of common stock in block transactions to market makers or other purchasers at a price per share which may be below the then market price. There can be no assurance that all or any part of the shares offered hereby will be sold by Selling Stockholders.

 

Selling Stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions with respect to the shares. In connection with these transactions, broker-dealers or other financial institutions may engage in short sales of the shares in the course of hedging the positions they assume with Selling Stockholders. Selling Stockholders may also sell the shares short and redeliver the shares to close out the short positions. Selling Stockholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions that require delivery of the shares to the broker-dealer or other financial institutions. Selling Stockholders may also loan or pledge the shares to a financial institution or a broker-dealer, and the financial institution or the broker-dealer may sell the shares loaned, or, upon a default, the financial institution or the broker-dealer may affect sales of the pledged shares. Selling Stockholders and any brokers, dealers or agents that participate in connection with the sale of shares of common stock may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act, and any commissions received by such brokers, dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the shares sold by them, while acting as principals, might be deemed to be underwriting discounts or commissions under the Securities Act. The Selling Stockholders may agree to indemnify any agent, dealer or broker-dealer that participates in transactions involving sales of the shares against certain liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act.

Table of Contents

Because Selling Stockholders may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act, the Selling Stockholders will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. We will inform Selling Stockholders that the anti-manipulation rules under the Securities Exchange Act (Regulation M – Rule 102) may apply to sales in the market and will furnish Selling Stockholders upon request with a copy of these rules. We will also inform Selling Stockholders of the need for delivery of copies of this prospectus.

 

Selling Stockholders also may resell all or a portion of the shares in open market transactions in reliance upon Rule 144 under the Securities Act, provided they meet the criteria and conform to the requirements of such Rule.

 

To comply with the securities laws of certain jurisdictions, the shares of common stock offered by this prospectus may need to be offered or sold only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in certain jurisdictions, the shares of common stock may not be offered or sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale or an exemption is available and complied with.

 

As part of the registration of the shares of common stock offered for sale by this prospectus on behalf of Selling Stockholders, we agreed to indemnify and hold harmless Selling Stockholders and their respective officers, directors, employees and affiliates against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities, joint or several, to which such parties may become subject under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings, whether commenced or threatened, in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the registration statement, prospectus or preliminary prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or in any application or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading. We are not obligated to indemnify and hold harmless Selling Stockholders if such untrue statement or omission is made in such registration statement, prospectus, preliminary prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, or in any application, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information prepared and furnished to us by Selling Stockholders expressly for use therein.
