Scientific Games Reports First Quarter 2017 Results



Sixth Consecutive Quarter of Growth

Growth Driven by Gaming Machine Sales and Interactive

LAS VEGAS, April 27, 2017 /PRNewswire/ --Scientific Games Corporation (NASDAQ: SGMS) ("Scientific Games" or the "Company"), today reported results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2017.

  • First quarter revenue rose 6 percent to $725.4 million, up from $682.0 million a year ago. The growth was led by a 24 percent increase in global new unit shipments of gaming machines and a 33 percent increase in interactive revenue. Foreign exchange had an $8.1 million, or 1 percent, unfavorable impact on revenue. 
  • Operating income in the first quarter increased 75 percent to $88.0 million from $50.3 million a year ago as a result of the revenue growth and lower cost structure. Net loss was $100.8 million compared with $92.3 million in the prior-year period, as the increase in operating income was offset by a $29.7 million loss on extinguishment and modification of debt and a $35.9 million increase in the income tax provision.
  • Attributable EBITDA ("AEBITDA"), a non-GAAP financial measure as defined below, increased to $286.6 million from $258.8 million a year ago driven by the higher revenue and lower cost structure; and AEBITDA margin, a non-GAAP financial measure as defined below, improved to 39.5 percent from 37.9 percent in the prior-year period.
  • Net cash from operating activities rose to $111.0 million, inclusive of $12.6 million of cash payments related to the business improvement initiatives previously announced and implemented in the 2016 fourth quarter, from $101.1 million a year ago.
  • The Company completed refinancing transactions during the first quarter 2017 that lowered cash interest costs at current rates, reduced exposure to variable interest rates, and extended a substantial portion of its debt maturities.
  • At March 31, 2017, the Company had fully repaid borrowings under its revolving credit facility, and its cash and availability under its revolving credit facility was $657.7 million.

"Our continued steady improvement in revenue and margin are a direct result of our focus on creating innovative products that drive demand and our commitment to operational excellence," said Kevin Sheehan, Chief Executive Officer of Scientific Games. "This is a great start to the year, with all three of our business segments contributing to growth. We have a tremendous global team firmly focused on unlocking the power of our brands, strengthening our commitment to innovation, and executing a disciplined fiscal approach to enhance long-term shareholder value. We are building for our future."

Michael Quartieri, Chief Financial Officer of Scientific Games, added, "All across our global businesses, we are improving our operational excellence that parlays our strength in innovation to drive enhanced financial results and stronger cash flow. We expect these initiatives will drive profitable growth and increased cash flow that will provide further opportunities to deleverage in 2017 and beyond."

(1)  Gaming operations revenue is included in services revenue, gaming machine sales revenue is included in product sales revenue, and portions of 
       gaming systems and table products revenue are included in both services revenue and product sales revenue.


(2)  AEBITDA in the 2017 and 2016 first quarter periods included $1.8 million and $1.6 million, respectively, of EBITDA from equity investments in 
       International Terminal Leasing ("ITL") and Roberts Communications Network, LLC ("RCN").

  • Total gaming revenue increased $18.3 million, or 4 percent, compared to the year-ago period, inclusive of a $5.1 million unfavorable foreign exchange impact.
  • Operating income improved $34.1 million to $77.5 million. The increase primarily reflected the benefit of the higher revenue, lower selling, general and administrative expense and lower depreciation and amortization compared to the 2016 first quarter.
  • AEBITDA increased to $209.7 million with an AEBITDA margin of 47.7 percent, reflecting the higher revenue and lower cost structure compared to prior year.
  • Gaming operations revenue declined 7 percent, largely reflecting an 832 unit reduction in the ending installed base of WAP, premium, and daily-fee participation gaming machines coupled with a $1.72 per unit decline in the average daily revenue compared to the prior year.  On a quarterly sequential basis, gaming operations revenue was flat.  A 322 unit decline of lower-earning units in the installed footprint of WAP, premium, and daily-fee participation units was offset by a $1.73 increase in the average daily revenue per unit.
    The ending installed base of other participation and leased units decreased by 632 units compared to the prior year, primarily reflecting the conversion of VLTs at a casino in New York and a decrease in the installed base of units in U.K. betting shops, partially offset by the installation of VLTs in Greece. The average daily rate declined by $0.42 per unit, largely reflecting the initial ramp up of VLTs in Greece and an unfavorable foreign exchange impact related to the U.K. installed base.  On a quarterly sequential basis, the installed footprint was essentially flat.
  • Gaming machine sales revenue increased 16 percent year over year, reflecting a 24 percent increase in shipments of new units and higher average selling price, partially offset by lower sales of parts, game conversion kits and used units.  U.S. and Canadian shipments increased 1,497 units, or 34 percent, to 5,862 gaming machines, including 3,139 replacement units, 250 VLTs to Oregon, and 2,723 gaming machines for new casino openings and expansions, inclusive of 861 VGTs for the Illinois market. In the prior-year period, U.S. and Canadian shipments totaled 4,365 units, which comprised 3,092 replacement units, 840 VLTs to Oregon, and 433 VGTs for the Illinois market. International shipments increased 114 units, or 5 percent, to 2,497 units, including 2,073 replacement units and 424 units for new casino openings, up from 2,383 units in the prior year.  The average sales price increased to $17,015 from $16,719 in the prior year, reflecting a favorable mix of units.
  • Gaming systems revenue increased to $61.5 million, primarily reflecting an increase in hardware sales, including shipment of innovative new iVIEW4 player-interface display units.
  • Table products revenue increased to $49.9 million, principally reflecting growth in leased shufflers, proprietary table games, and progressives, including the benefit from the acquisition of DEQ Systems Corp. completed on January 18, 2017.

      Scientific Games Technology Co. Ltd. ("CSG"), Hellenic Lotteries S.A. ("Hellenic Lotteries") and Northstar Lottery Group, LLC ("Northstar 
      Illinois").

  • Total lottery revenue increased $1.4 million, inclusive of a $2.0 million unfavorable foreign exchange impact. Revenue in the prior year included incremental sales benefit from a $1.6 billion Powerball jackpot.
  • Operating income increased $8.1 million, primarily reflecting higher revenue coupled with lower selling, general and administrative expense and lower depreciation and amortization.
  • AEBITDA increased to $85.3 million and AEBITDA margin increased to 45.1 percent, largely reflecting the lower cost structure.
  • Instant games revenue increased $6.1 million, or 5 percent, driven by higher revenue from licensed and player-loyalty products and from price-per-unit based contracts.
  • Services revenue decreased $6.1 million, primarily reflecting lower retail sales of multi-state games compared to sales in the prior year, which had benefited from incremental sales associated with a record $1.6 billion Powerball jackpot.
  • Product sales revenue increased to $9.9 million from the prior-year period, reflecting higher U.S. and international hardware sales.
  • The Company signed two new three-year contracts to provide Norsk Tipping (Norway's national lottery) with interactive casino and eInstant games. Additionally, the Missouri Lottery extended its current instant games contract for three additional years; the Arizona Lottery extended its current instant games contract for one additional year; and the Iowa Lottery extended its instant games contract for one additional year and its lottery systems contract for two additional years.

(2) Daily Active Users are a count of unique visitors to our apps during a day.


(3) Average daily revenue per daily active user is calculated by dividing revenue by the daily active users by the number of days for the period.


(4) Mobile penetration is the percentage of B2C social gaming revenue derived from mobile platforms.

  • Total interactive revenue grew 33 percent to $96.3 million, primarily reflecting a 33 percent increase in social gaming B2C revenue due to the ongoing popularity and growth of Jackpot Party® Social Casino coupled with the success of more recent apps, including the most recent introduction of 88 Fortunes.
  • Operating income increased 50 percent to $17.2 million, primarily reflecting the higher revenue. Selling, general and administrative expense and research and development expense increased primarily due to higher player acquisition and marketing expenditures to support ongoing growth, and pre-launch development expenses for apps not yet launched.
  • AEBITDA rose to $23.0 million and AEBITDA margin increased to 23.9 percent, primarily reflecting higher revenue and improved operating leverage, partially offset by increased marketing costs and ongoing development initiatives underlying the rapid growth.

  • Net cash flow from operating activities increased by $9.9 million to $111.0 million, inclusive of $12.6 million of cash costs related to business improvement initiatives implemented in the fourth quarter. 
  • The change in working capital accounts was primarily driven by a $21.5 million decrease in accounts and notes receivables, partially offset by a $13.4 million increase in inventories primarily due to the timing of orders and deployment of units in the gaming segment, and a $1.1 million unfavorable net impact from changes in other current asset and liabilities.
  • Capital expenditures totaled $61.3 million. For 2017, the Company expects capital expenditures will be within a range of $280-$310 million, based on existing contractual obligations and planned investments.
  • During the first quarter 2017, the Company executed a series of refinancing transactions that reduced the total principal amount of the Company's debt by $45 million through payment of the remaining $45 million on its revolving credit facility, lowered annual cash interest costs, extended maturities to 2021 and 2022 for 95 percent of its debt, and reduced its exposure to variable interest rates. In conjunction with the refinancing transactions, the Company incurred $27.2 million of cash costs in the quarter. The Company remains committed to prioritizing debt repayments from cash flow.
  • The Company redeemed all of its outstanding 8.125% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2018 on March 17, 2017 at a price equal to 100 percent of the principal amount plus accrued interest.

  • On April 7, 2017, using available cash-on-hand, Scientific Games acquired Spicerack Media, Inc., creator of the successful Bingo Showdown social bingo mobile game app. The acquisition was immediately accretive to earnings and operating cash flow.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company's management uses the following non-GAAP financial measures in conjunction with GAAP financial measures: AEBITDA, AEBITDA margin, free cash flow and EBITDA from equity investments (each, as described more fully below). These non-GAAP financial measures are presented as supplemental disclosures. They should not be considered in isolation of, as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP, and should be read in conjunction with the Company's financial statements filed with the SEC. The non-GAAP financial measures used by the Company may differ from similarly titled measures presented by other companies.

Specifically, the Company's management uses AEBITDA to, among other things: (i) monitor and evaluate the performance of the Company's business operations; (ii) facilitate management's internal comparisons of the Company's historical operating performance; and (iii) analyze and evaluate financial and strategic planning decisions regarding future operating investments and operating budgets. In addition, the Company's management uses AEBITDA and AEBITDA margin to facilitate management's external comparisons of the Company's results to the historical operating performance of other companies that may have different capital structures and debt levels. The Company's management uses EBITDA from equity investments to monitor and evaluate the performance of the Company's equity investments.

The Company's management believes that each of these non-GAAP financial measures are useful as they provide investors with information regarding the Company's financial condition and operating performance that is an integral part of management's reporting and planning processes. In particular, the Company's management believes that AEBITDA, both on a consolidated and business segment basis, is helpful because this non-GAAP financial measure eliminates the effects of restructuring, transaction, integration or other items that management believes have less bearing on the Company's ongoing underlying operating performance. Management believes AEBITDA margin, both on a consolidated and business segment basis, is useful for analysts and investors as this measure allows an evaluation of the performance of our ongoing business operations and provides insight into the cash operating income margins generated from our business, from which capital investments are made and debt is serviced. Moreover, management believes AEBITDA and EBITDA from equity investments are useful to investors because the Company's Lottery business is also conducted through a number of equity investments, and those measures eliminate financial items from the equity investees' earnings that management believes have less bearing on the equity investees' performance. Management believes that free cash flow provides useful information regarding the Company's liquidity and its ability to service debt and fund investments. Management also believes that free cash flow is useful for investors because it provides them with an important perspective on the cash available for debt repayment and other strategic measures, after making necessary capital investments in property and equipment and necessary license payments to support the Company's ongoing business operations and taking into account cash flows relating to the Company's equity investments.

AEBITDA
AEBITDA, as used herein, is a non-GAAP financial measure that is presented as supplemental disclosure and is reconciled to net income (loss) as the directly comparable GAAP measure, which is further reconciled to operating income (loss) by business segment, as set forth in the schedules titled "Reconciliation of Net Loss to Attributable EBITDA" below. We also present AEBITDA by business segment in this earnings release. AEBITDA should not be considered in isolation of, as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP, and should be read in conjunction with the Company's financial statements filed with the SEC. AEBITDA may differ from similarly titled measures presented by other companies.

AEBITDA, as used herein, is reconciled to net income (loss) in the following table and includes our net loss with the following adjustments: (1) interest; (2) income taxes; (3) depreciation and amortization expense and impairment charges (including goodwill impairment charges); (4) restructuring and other, which includes charges or expenses attributable to: (i) employee severance; (ii) management changes; (iii) restructuring and integration; (iv) M&A and other, which includes: (a) M&A transaction costs, (b) purchase accounting, (c) unusual items (including certain legal settlements), and (d) other non-cash items; and (v) cost savings initiatives; and (5) stock-based compensation. In addition to the preceding adjustments, we exclude earnings from equity method investments and add (without duplication) our pro rata share of the EBITDA of our equity investments.

In the third quarter of 2016, we simplified our reconciliation of AEBITDA on a prospective basis. This change does not modify our calculation or definition of AEBITDA or the items that are included as adjustments. This presentation change merely consolidates the amounts previously included in adjustments (4) and (6) above, which were previously reported as two separate line items ("M&A and other charges (incl. purchase accounting)" and "Employee termination and restructuring"), into a single line item ("Restructuring and other") in order to align with our GAAP financial statement presentation.

AEBITDA Margin
AEBITDA margin, as used herein, represents our AEBITDA (as defined above) for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, each calculated as a percentage of revenue. AEBITDA margin is a non-GAAP financial measure that is presented as supplemental disclosures for illustrative purposes only and is reconciled to net loss in a schedule below. We also present AEBITDA margin by business segment in this release. These amounts are reconciled to consolidated net income (loss) as the nearest GAAP measure, which is further reconciled to operating income (loss) by operating segment.

Free Cash Flow
Free cash flow, as used herein, represents net cash provided by operating activities less total capital expenditures (which includes lottery and gaming systems expenditures and other intangible assets and software expenditures), less payments on license obligations, less additions to equity investments plus distributions of capital on equity investments. Free cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure that is presented as supplemental disclosure for illustrative purposes only and is reconciled to net cash provided by operating activities in a schedule below.

EBITDA from Equity Investments
EBITDA from equity investments, as used herein, represents our share of the EBITDA (i.e., earnings (whether or not distributed to us) plus income tax expense, depreciation and amortization expense and interest (income) expense, net of other) of our joint ventures and minority investees. EBITDA from equity investments is a non-GAAP financial measure that is presented as supplemental disclosure for illustrative purposes only and is reconciled to earnings from equity investments in a schedule below.
