We have audited the accompanying statements of financial position of Consorzio Lotterie Nazionali as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the related statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2010. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Consorzio Lotterie Nazionali at December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2010, in conformity with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.

As discussed in Note 1 of the financial statements, the Company's Board of Directors obtained approval from its equity holders on February 24, 2011 to begin formal dissolution of the Company during 2011, which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2.1 of the financial statements, the 2010 financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the uncertain outcome associated with such dissolution.

1.    Corporate information
Consorzio Lotterie Nazionali (hereinafter “CLN” or “the Company”) is a consortium organized under the laws of the Republic of Italy. The head office of the Company is located in Rome, Italy.

The Company’s operations are entirely in the Republic of Italy. In the month of October 2003, the Italian Ministry of Economy and Finances granted to CLN the exclusive concession to operate various traditional and instant lotteries, including “Scratch and Win” instant games. The Company’s instant and traditional lotteries are available through various vendors located throughout Italy, mainly at tobacco shops, cafès, bars, motorway restaurants and newspaper stands (collectively, “Points of Sale” or “PoS”).

The Company’s deed of association assigns to all of its equity holders specific roles in the Company’s business activities as follows:

Lottomatica Group S.p.A. (the parent of the Company and formerly Lottomatica S.p.A.): its role includes the design and coordination of the Company’s overall operations including management of the marketing and accounting functions, collection of wagers from Points of Sales, administration of periodic drawings, and procurement of software and hardware for Points of Sale;
Scientific Games International: its role includes design and production of instant lottery tickets;
Arianna 2001 S.p.A: its role includes serving as the secure depository and manager of the instant lottery tickets inventory;
Olivetti S.p.A.: its role includes responsibilities for the supply and maintenance of software and hardware of the Company;
Servizi Base 2001 S.p.A.: its role includes management of the instant lottery ticket distribution to the Points of Sale.

The concession granted to CLN by the Ministry entity Amministrazione Autonoma dei Monopoli di Stato (hereinafter “AAMS”) expired in the months of March and May of 2010, for traditional lotteries and instant lotteries, respectively. During August 2009, AAMS issued a tender for a new nine-year concession agreement to be effective from June 10, 2010, which was initially awarded to the Company. However, another lottery operator in the Italian market filed an order to annul the tender process, which was granted by the Regional Administrative Court (“TAR”) of Lazio. AAMS and CLN subsequently filed an appeal to the Supreme Administrative Court (Consiglio di Stato) defending the legality of the tender process and requesting an annulment of the decision by the TAR of Lazio.

In a hearing held on March 9, 2010, the Supreme Administrative Court generally accepted the appeal submitted by AAMS and CLN, but also partially accepted the decision of the TAR of Lazio by agreeing that certain laws regulating the tender process were not applicable. Accordingly, on March 30, 2010, AAMS issued a decree aimed at reopening the prior public tender for the new Scratch & Win concession requiring the bidders to submit their applications by May 10, 2010.

On May 13, 2010, AAMS officially awarded CLN as the sole license holder for the new Scratch & Win instant lotteries concession, subject to the requirement that such concession be subscribed by a new company structured as an incorporated entity, as discussed in further detail below. In order to guarantee continuity of service in the meantime, AAMS granted CLN the temporary management of the Scratch & Win instant lotteries, effective June 1, 2010 and ending no later than September 30, 2010. Given the requirements of the tender process, CLN continued its operations through the end of the third calendar quarter of 2010, while a newly established incorporated entity,

CONSORZIO LOTTERIE NAZIONALI
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(thousands of Euro)

Lotterie Nazionali S.r.l. (“LN”), which is also a majority owned subsidiary of Lottomatica Group S.p.A. having substantially the same equity owners and management team as CLN, began managing the instant lottery concession effective October 1, 2010.

On August 5, 2010, LN and AAMS signed the new Scratch & Win instant lotteries concession agreement, effective October 1, 2010. On September 30, 2010, CLN, LN and AAMS signed an addendum to the new concession agreement aimed at regulating a smooth transition to the new entity’s operations and ensuring continuity in the service to be provided by LN. In particular, this addendum required CLN to transfer at book value, effective October 1, 2010, certain of its assets and liabilities as of August 31, 2010 to LN based on the provision of a third separate contract (also signed on September 30, 2010). Based on the accounts and balances transferred at such date, the parties determined the transfer price to be zero (i.e., total assets equaled total liabilities), but agreed to potentially adjust the transfer price before December 31, 2010 based on the results of a third party analysis and valuation (i.e., appraisal) to be conducted throughout the fourth quarter.

The final appraisal validated the net worth valuation criteria initially adopted (i.e., measuring at book value the assets and liabilities to be transferred) by confirming a transfer price of zero. The September 30, 2010 asset and liability balances that were transferred to LN effective October 1, 2010 based on the provision of the addendum to the new concession agreement included the following:

The rationale for the zero transfer price resulted from the fact that such transfer was exclusively driven by regulatory and government tax requirements and was also intended to protect Italian lottery consumers’ interests by ensuring continuity in the service. This transfer was, in other words, considered a mandatory (i.e., necessary) action aimed at both regulating the transition to the new concessionaire’s operations and satisfying the new concession’s requirements and was not intended to represent a regular or recurring transfer (i.e., sale) responding to market conditions.

Although virtually all CLN’s assets, liabilities and operations were transferred to LN effective October 1, 2010, the Company was not formally liquidated on such date and still existed on December 31, 2010. However, given that the terms of the original Scratch & Win lotteries concession agreements pertaining to CLN have expired, coupled with the fact that management of the instant lotteries was successfully transitioned to LN during the fourth calendar quarter of 2010, the CLN Board of Directors proposed, on February 9, 2011, to begin formal dissolution of the Company. Such recommendation was presented to, and approved by, the Company’s equity holders in a meeting held on February 24, 2011.

CONSORZIO LOTTERIE NAZIONALI
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(thousands of Euro)

On March 8, 2011, the Company filed to the “Registro delle imprese” the above mentioned approval to pursue an orderly liquidation, as such following all related provisions of Italian Civil Code and then returning any excess cash to the Company’s equity holders.
2.1    Basis of preparation
The Company adopted the liquidation basis of accounting effective March 8, 2011. This basis of accounting is considered appropriate when, among other things, liquidation of a company is probable and the net realizable values of assets are reasonably determinable.  Under this basis of accounting, assets are valued at their net realizable values and liabilities are stated at their estimated settlement amounts.  The conversion to the liquidation basis of accounting required management to make significant estimates and judgments to record assets at estimated net realizable values and liabilities at estimated settlement amounts.
Even though the Company is in a liquidation process, its remaining assets and liabilities have been recognized and measured assuming they will be completely recovered and discharged, respectively, in the normal course of ceasing its business. Specifically, as noted above, such dissolution is the direct result of the transfer of the Company’s business operations to a new entity under common control in accordance with regulatory and governmental requirements and accordingly, is not indicative of a distressed transaction or a liquidation that is occurring under duress.
To the contrary, given the substantial profitability experienced by the Company during the original concession agreement, management expects that the assets existing as of December 31, 2011 will be sufficient to fully settle all of the Company’s liability and equity obligations existing as of that date.
The financial statements of the Company as of December 31, 2011 and for the year then ended were approved for issuance by the Board of Directors in accordance with a resolution dated February 27, 2012.

Statement of Compliance
The financial statements of CLN have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”).
2.2    Changes in accounting policy

The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the previous financial year except as follows.

The Company has adopted the following new and amended IFRS and International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (“IFRIC”) interpretations during the year effective as of January 1, 2011. Given the in-liquidation status of the Company, the adoption of these new and amended standards and interpretations did not have any effect on the financial position, performance or cash flows of the Company.

IAS 24 Related Party Disclosures (amendment);
IAS 32 Financial Instruments: Presentation (amendment);
IFRIC 14 Prepayments of a Minimum Funding Requirement (amendment);
Improvements to IFRSs (May 2010).



F-9

CONSORZIO LOTTERIE NAZIONALI
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(thousands of Euro)



The principal effects of these changes are as follows:

IAS 24 Related Party Transactions (Amendment)
The IASB issued an amendment to IAS 24 that clarifies the definitions of a related party. The new definitions emphasise a symmetrical view of related party relationships and clarifies the circumstances in which persons and key management personnel affect related party relationships of an entity. In addition, the amendment introduces an exemption from the general related party disclosure requirements for transactions with government and entities that are controlled, jointly controlled or significantly influenced by the same
government as the reporting entity. The adoption of this amendment had no impact on the financial position, performance or cash flows of the Company.

IAS 32 Financial Instruments: Presentation (Amendment)
The IASB issued an amendment that alters the definition of a financial liability in IAS 32 to enable entities to classify rights issues and certain options or warrants as equity instruments. The amendment is applicable if the rights are given pro rata to all of the existing owners of the same class of an entity’s non-derivative equity instruments, to acquire a fixed number of the entity’s own equity instruments for a fixed amount in any currency. The Company has concluded that the adoption of this amendment had no impact on its financial position, performance or cash flows, as CLN does not have these type of instruments.

IFRIC 14 Prepayments of a Minimum Funding Requirement (Amendment)
The amendment removes an unintended consequence when an entity is subject to minimum funding requirements and makes an early payment of contributions to cover such requirements. The amendment
permits a prepayment of future service cost by the entity to be recognized as a pension asset. The Company is not subject to minimum funding requirements in Euroland, therefore the amendment of the interpretation had no effect on the financial position, performance or cash flows of the Company.

Improvements to IFRSs
In May 2010, the IASB issued its third omnibus of amendments to its standards, primarily with a view to
removing inconsistencies and clarifying wording. There are separate transitional provisions for each standard. The amendments made can result in accounting changes for presentation, recognition and measurement. The adoption of such amendments resulted in changes to accounting policies but had no effect on the financial position, performance or cash flows of the Company.

IFRS 3 Business Combinations (Measurement of non-controlling interest (NCI)). Specifies that the option to measure NCIs either at fair value or at the proportionate share of the acquiree’s net identifiable assets at the acquisition date under IFRS 3(2008) applies only to NCIs that are present ownership interests and entitle their holders to a proportionate share of the acquiree’s net assets in the event of liquidation. All other components of NCIs should be measured at their acquisition date fair value, unless another measurement basis is required by IFRSs.
IFRS 3 Business Combinations (Contingent consideration arising from business combination prior to adoption of IFRS 3 (as revised in 2008)). Clarifies that IAS 32 Financial Instruments: Presentation, IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement and IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures do not apply to contingent consideration that arose from business combinations whose acquisition dates preceded the application of IFRS 3(2008).
IFRS 3 Business Combinations (Un-replaced and voluntarily replaced share-based payment awards). Specifies that the current requirement to measure awards of the acquirer that replace acquiree share-based payment transactions in accordance with IFRS 2 at the acquisition date (‘market-based measure’) applies

F-10

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(thousands of Euro)

also to share-based payment transactions of the acquiree that are not replaced. Specifies that the current requirement to allocate the market-based measure of replacement awards between the consideration transferred for the business combination and post-combination remuneration applies to all replacement awards regardless of whether the acquirer is obliged to replace the awards or does so voluntarily.
IFRS 7 Financial Instruments — Disclosures. Simplifies the disclosures provided by reducing the volume of disclosures around collateral held and improving disclosures by requiring qualitative information to put the quantitative information in context.
IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements. Clarifies that an entity may present an analysis of each component of other comprehensive income maybe either in the statement of changes in equity or in the notes to the financial statements.
IAS 27 Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements. Clarifies that the amendments made to IAS 21 The Effects of Changes in Foreign Rates, IAS 28 Investments in Associates and IAS 31 Interests in Joint Ventures as a result of IAS 27(2008) should be applied prospectively (with the exception of paragraph 35 of IAS 28 and paragraph 46 of IAS 31, which should be applied retrospectively).
IFRIC 13 Customer Loyalty Programmes (determining the fair value of award credits). Clarifies that the ‘fair value’ of award credits should take into account the amount of discounts or incentives that would otherwise be offered to customers who have not earned award credits from an initial sale and any expected forfeitures.
IFRIC 19 Extinguishing Financial Liabilities with Equity Instruments IFRIC 19 clarifies that equity instruments issued to a creditor to extinguish liabilities are considerations paid in accordance with paragraph 41 of IAS 39 Financial instruments recognition and measurement. The equity instruments issued are measured at their fair value unless his cannot be reliably measured in which case they are measured at the fair value of the liability. Any gain or loss is immediately recognised in profit or loss. This interpretation is effective for periods beginning on or after July 1, 2010.
2.3    International Financial Reporting Standards to be adopted in 2012 and later

The IASB and IFRIC issued additional standards and interpretations which are effective for periods starting after the date of these financial statements and therefore have yet to be adopted by CLN, assuming the liquidation will not be completed by the time the Company will be required to prepare 2012 financial statements, as described below. Given the in-liquidation status of the Company, the adoption of these new and amended standards is not expected to have any effect on the financial position, performance or cash flows of the Company.

IAS 1 Financial Statement Presentation – Presentation of Items of Other Comprehensive Income
The amendment becomes effective for annual periods beginning on or after July 1, 2012. It changes the grouping of items presented in OCI. Items that could be reclassified (or ‘recycled’) to profit or loss at a future point in time (for example, upon derecognition or settlement) would be presented separately from items that will never be reclassified. The amendment affects presentation only, as such it is not expected to impact the financial position, performance or cash flows of the Company.

IAS 12 Income Taxes – Deferred tax: Recovery of Underlying Assets (Amendment)
The amendment, issued on December 20, 2010, is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2012. It provides an exception to the general principles of IAS 12 for investment property measured using the fair value model in IAS 40, Investment Property. The adoption of this amendment is not expected to impact the financial position, performance or cash flows of the Company.

F-11

CONSORZIO LOTTERIE NAZIONALI
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(thousands of Euro)


IAS 19 Employee Benefits (Amendment)
The amendment becomes effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013.The IASB has issued numerous amendments to IAS 19. These range from fundamental changes such as removing the corridor mechanism and the concept of expected returns on plan assets to simple clarifications and re-wording. The adoption of this amendment is not expected to impact the financial position, performance or cash flows of the Company.

IAS 27 Separate Financial Statements (as revised in 2011)
The amendment becomes effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. As a consequence of the new IFRS 10 and IFRS 12, what remains of IAS 27 is limited to accounting for subsidiaries, jointly controlled entities, and associates in separate financial statements. The adoption of this standard is not expected to impact the financial position, performance or cash flows of the Company.

IAS 28 Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures (as revised in 2011)
The amendment becomes effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. As a consequence of the new IFRS 11 and IFRS 12. IAS 28 has been renamed IAS 28 Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures, and describes the application of the equity method to investments in joint ventures in addition to associates. The Company does not have investments in associates and joint ventures, as such the adoption of this standard is not expected to impact the financial position, performance or cash flows of the Company.

IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures — Enhanced Derecognition Disclosure Requirements
The amendment becomes effective for annual periods beginning on or after July 1, 2011. It requires additional disclosure about financial assets that have been transferred but not derecognised to enable the user of the financial statements to understand the relationship with those assets that have not been derecognised and their associated liabilities. In addition, the amendment requires disclosures about continuing involvement in derecognised assets to enable the user to evaluate the nature of, and risks associated with, the entity’s continuing involvement in those derecognised assets. The amendment affects disclosure only, as such it is not expected to impact the financial position, performance or cash flows of the Company.

IFRS 9 Financial Instruments: Classification and Measurement
IFRS 9 as issued reflects the first phase of the IASBs work on the replacement of IAS 39 and applies to
classification and measurement of financial assets and financial liabilities as defined in IAS 39. The standard is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. In subsequent phases, the IASB will address hedge accounting and impairment of financial assets. The completion of this project is expected over the course of 2011 or the first half of 2012. The adoption of the first phase of IFRS 9 is not expected to have an effect on the classification and measurement of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities. The Company will quantify the effect in conjunction with the other phases, when issued, to present a comprehensive picture.

IFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements
This standard becomes effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. IFRS 10 replaces the portion of IAS 27 Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements that addresses the accounting for consolidated financial statements. It also includes the issues raised in SIC-12 Consolidation—Special Purpose Entities. IFRS 10 establishes a single control model that applies to all entities including special purpose entities. The changes introduced by IFRS 10 will require management to exercise significant judgement to determine which entities are controlled, and therefore, are required to be consolidated by a parent, compared with the requirements that were in IAS 27. The Company does not present consolidated financial statements, as such the adoption of this standard is not expected to impact the financial position, performance or cash flows of the Company.

IFRS 11 Joint Arrangements
This standard becomes effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. IFRS 11 replaces IAS 31 Interests in Joint Ventures and SIC-13 Jointly-controlled Entities — Non-monetary Contributions by Venturers. IFRS 11 removes the option to account for jointly controlled entities (JCEs) using proportionate consolidation.

F-12

CONSORZIO LOTTERIE NAZIONALI
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(thousands of Euro)

Instead, JCEs that meet the definition of a joint venture must be accounted for using the equity method. The Company does not have JCEs, as such the adoption of this standard is not expected to impact the financial position, performance or cash flows of the Company.

IFRS 12 Disclosure of Involvement with Other Entities
This standard becomes effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. IFRS 12 includes all of the disclosures that were previously in IAS 27 related to consolidated financial statements, as well as all of the disclosures that were previously included in IAS 31 and IAS 28. These disclosures relate to an entity’s interests in subsidiaries, joint arrangements, associates and structured entities. A number of new disclosures are also required. The adoption of this standard is not expected to impact the financial position, performance or cash flows of the Company

IFRS 13 Fair Value Measurement
This standard becomes effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. IFRS 13 establishes a single source of guidance under IFRS for all fair value measurements. IFRS 13 does not change when an entity is required to use fair value, but rather provides guidance on how to measure fair value under IFRS when fair value is required or permitted. The adoption of this standard is not expected to impact the financial position, performance or cash flows of the Company.

2.4    Significant accounting judgments, estimates and assumptions

The preparation of the Company's financial statements requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities, and the disclosure of contingent liabilities, at the reporting date. However, uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that could require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of the asset or liability affected in the future.

Estimates and assumptions
The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the statement of financial position date that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed below.

Deferred Tax Assets
Deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available in the future. Significant management judgment is required to determine the amount of deferred tax assets that can be realized, based upon the likely timing and level of future taxable profits together with future tax planning strategies.

2.5    Summary of significant accounting policies

The accounting policies of the Company following its adoption of the liquidating basis of accounting conform to International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). Even if the 2011 financial statements have been formally prepared on the liquidation basis of accounting, given the liquid nature of the Company’s assets and liabilities existing as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, management believes that the “in-liquidation” significant accounting policies substantially conform to those previously adopted in “pre-liquidation” for the purpose of the preparation of the financial statements as of December 31, 2010 and for the year then ended. Significant “in-liquidation” accounting policies are described below.




F-13

CONSORZIO LOTTERIE NAZIONALI
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(thousands of Euro)

Financial assets
Financial assets within the scope of IAS 39 are classified as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, loans and receivables, held-to-maturity investments, or available-for-sale financial assets, as appropriate. The Company only has financial assets classified as loans and receivables and fair value through profit and loss. When financial assets are recognized initially on the trade date, they are measured at fair value, plus, in the case of investments not recognized at fair value through profit or loss, directly attributable transaction costs.

The Company determines the classification of its financial assets on initial recognition.
Trade receivables and other receivables
Trade accounts receivable are subsequently measured at amortized cost less impairment. Impairment provisions or allowances for doubtful accounts are generally recorded when there is objective evidence that the Company will not be able to collect the related receivables. Bad debts are written off when identified.

Short-term receivables are not discounted because the effect of discounting cash flows is immaterial.

Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents in the balance sheet are comprised of cash at banks and on hand and short-term, highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase.

Financial liabilities

Financial liabilities at amortized cost
All loans and borrowings and trade accounts payable are initially recognized at fair value less directly attributable transaction costs. After initial recognition, interest bearing loans and borrowings are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. Short-term payables are not discounted because the effect of discounting cash flows is immaterial.
Provisions
Provisions are recognized when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. Whenever the Company expects some or all of a provision to be reimbursed, for example under an insurance contract, the reimbursement is recognized as a separate asset, but only when the reimbursement is virtually certain. The expense relating to any provision is presented in the income statement net of any reimbursement. If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre-tax rate that reflects, where appropriate, the risks specific to the liability. Where discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognized as a borrowing cost.

Income taxes

Current income tax
Current tax assets and liabilities for the current and prior periods are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted or substantively enacted by the statement of financial position date.





F-14

CONSORZIO LOTTERIE NAZIONALI
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(thousands of Euro)

Deferred income tax
Deferred income tax is provided using the liability method on temporary differences at the statement of financial position date between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes.

Deferred income tax liabilities are recognized for all taxable temporary differences.

Deferred income tax assets are recognized for all deductible temporary differences, carry-forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses, to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, and the carry-forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses, can be utilized.

The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is reviewed at each balance sheet date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred income tax asset to be utilized. Unrecognized deferred income tax assets are reassessed at each statement of financial position date and are recognized to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profit will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered.

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the year when the asset is realized or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the statement of financial position date.

Income tax relating to items recognized directly in equity is recognized in equity and not in the statement of comprehensive income.

in 2011. This would result in the recognition of a liability for losses that will result in tax deductible amounts (i.e., deductible temporary differences) when the liability is ultimately settled (upon liquidation of the Company or when the litigation is ultimately settled).

In addition, management has determined that it is probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available in 2012 (i.e., interest income generated by the remaining balance of Current financial assets from parent company) against which the Euro 123 remaining deferred tax assets can be utilized.

Accounts payable and service costs to the equity holder, Arianna 2001, refer to secure depository and distribution expenses.

Financial income and expenses from/to the parent company refer primarily to interest received from/charged by the equity holder Lottomatica Group S.p.A. relating to the Company’s short-term borrowing transactions with the parent company.

All the transactions with related parties, including the intragroup transactions, were executed at terms and conditions that are consistent with market rates and they refer to mutual administrative, financial and organizational services rendered. No atypical and/or unusual transactions have been recorded by the Company.
  
At December 31, 2011, there were no guarantees made to or received from related parties.
12.    Litigation
LAS VEGAS” Instantaneous Lottery Petitions

Beginning in April 2006, the Company began receiving payment requests relating to the “Las Vegas” instant lottery tickets (scratch and win) for non-winning tickets.

To-date, 837 petitions and 102 requests for injunctive payments have been received by the Company. There have also been numerous requests for out-of court settlements. These claims amounted to approximately Euro 5.9 million in prize money and requested payment for non-winning tickets. The players claimed that according to their interpretation of the Game Regulations established with the Finance Ministry Decree of February 16, 2005, the amounts corresponding to the winnings indicated in the various areas of the tickets should have been paid every time cards with points from 10 to K appear, even though the regulations state that all the cards must have the same points. As a matter of fact, the players sustained that in all French card games those cards with 10 to K have the same points.

The Company considers these requests unfounded as they do not follow the Game Regulations which explicitly describe the qualifications of a winning ticket. However, in the opinion of legal counsel, other rulings might have a negative outcome based on the same information used in unfavorable rulings against the Company as noted below.

To-date, 327 rulings have been issued fully accepting the reasons represented by legal counsel assisting the Company. With regard to the unfavorable rulings, the Company instructed its legal counsel to file appeals with the Supreme Court.

The fair value of the financial assets and liabilities are included at the amount at which the instrument could
be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale.
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair values:
Trade and other receivables, current financial assets from parent, other current assets, cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable, current financial liabilities to parent and other current liabilities approximate their carrying amounts largely due to the short-term maturities of these instruments.
The Company previously executed derivative financial instruments with various counterparties, principally financial institutions with investment grade credit ratings. Derivatives valued using valuation techniques with market observable inputs included foreign currency forward contracts. The fair value of these derivatives was calculated principally by reference to forward exchange rates for contracts with similar maturity profiles. The valuation techniques incorporated various inputs including the credit quality of the counterparty in a net liability position.
Fair value hierarchy

The Company uses the following hierarchy for determining and disclosing the fair value of financial instruments by valuation technique:

Level 1: quoted (unadjusted) prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level 2: other techniques for which all inputs that have a significant effect on the recorded fair value are observable, either directly or indirectly
Level 3: techniques which use inputs that have a significant effect on the recorded fair value that are not based on observable market data.

Credit risk
The Company’s credit risk is derived from cash and cash equivalents, trade and other receivables and other current assets balances. We maintain cash deposits and trade with only recognized, creditworthy third parties. We evaluate the collectability of trade accounts and sales receivables on a customer by customer basis. Trade and other receivables are reported net of allowances for doubtful accounts. Allowance for doubtful accounts is generally recorded when objective evidence exists that we will not been able to collect the receivable.
With respect to credit risk arising from financial assets of the Company, the Company’s exposure arises only from default of the counterparty, with a maximum exposure equal to the carrying amount of these balances. We manage our exposure to counterparty credit risk by dealing with major, financially sound counterparties with high-grade credit ratings and by limiting exposure to any one counterparty.
The balance of trade receivables and receivables from retailers (including related bad debt allowance provisions) at December 31, 2010 was zero as a result of the transfer of such balances to LN effective October 1, 2010 based on the provision of the addendum to the new concession agreement subscribed by CLN, LN and AAMS on

September 30, 2010 as described above.

The Company has no trade receivables and receivables from retailers as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, as such no ageing needs to be disclosed.
Liquidity risk
The Company participates in a cash pooling agreement with the parent company, Lottomatica Group S.p.A., pursuant to which the Company’s funds are swept daily into various cash pools managed by Lottomatica Group S.p.A. We expect to use the cash generated during the year ended December 31, 2011 and reflected in the balance Current financial assets from parent company to fund our remaining contractual obligations and satisfy our equity obligations (i.e., to reimburse the issued capital and remaining reserves to equity holders) during 2012 in conjunction with the completion of the liquidation of the Company.
The Company does not have any remaining financial liabilities, including derivatives, with maturity dates that exceed 12 months. As such, the contractual maturity dates of the Company’s remaining financial liabilities are all within one year.
The Company, since entering into the cash pooling agreement discussed above, did not enter into any lines of credit or other borrowing arrangements with banks.
Market risk
Foreign currency exchange rate risk
As a result of its operations being ceased on September 30, 2010, the Company no longer entered during 2011 into transactions relating to tickets purchased from the US equity holder Scientific Games Int., which instead affected our 2010 and 2009 financial statements with regard to movements in the USD/EUR exchange rates. When referring to our 2010 and 2009 financial statements, the primary risk inherent in our financial instruments was the market risk arising from adverse changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Historically, we managed our foreign currency exchange risk by entering into foreign currency forward contracts to reduce the exposure associated with certain liabilities denominated in USD, thereby economically hedging approximately 50% of the estimated future supply of tickets. For the majority of fiscal year 2010, the Company was totally exposed to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations resulting from tickets purchased from Scientific Games Int. in USD as all foreign currency forward contracts matured prior to the beginning of the second fiscal quarter of 2010 to coincide with the expiration of the original concession agreement.

Interest rate risk
The Company does not have financing arrangements with banks since its short-term borrowing requirements are provided by Lottomatica Group S.p.A. through the cash pooling agreement previously discussed. The interest rate for the cash pooling agreement is set on a quarterly basis. Consequently, changes in market interest rates would not have a significant effect on the Company’s net income and net equity.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM


The Board of Directors and Shareholders of
Beijing CITIC Scientific Games Technology Co., Ltd.
We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Beijing CITIC Scientific Games Technology Co., Ltd. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2011, and the related statements of operations, shareholders' equity, and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2011. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Beijing CITIC Scientific Games Technology Co., Ltd. at December 31, 2011, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2011, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
The 2010 and 2009 financial statements were compiled by us and our report thereon, dated June 27, 2012, stated we did not audit or review those financial statements and, accordingly, express no opinion or other form of assurance on them.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
(In Renminbi “RMB”)
1. ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS
When used in these notes, unless otherwise specified or the context otherwise indicates, all references to the words "we," "us," "our," and the "Company" refer to Beijing CITIC Scientific Games Technology Co., Ltd. in our financial statements.
Beijing CITIC Scientific Games Technology Co., Ltd., was established by Beijing Kexin Shengcai Investment Co., Ltd and Scientific Games Worldwide Limited as a Sino-Foreign joint venture in Beijing, the People's Republic of China (the “PRC”), on July 23 2007.
The Company engages primarily in the manufacturing and sale of lottery tickets and its sole customer is Beijing China Sports Lottery Printing Service Ltd. (“China Sports Lottery”).
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of presentation
The accompanying financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP").
Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the balance sheet dates, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Significant estimates and assumptions reflected in the financial statements include, but are not limited to, revenue recognition, estimation of sales returns, estimation of allowance for doubtful accounts, lower of cost or market of inventories and useful lives of long-lived assets. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Foreign currency transactions
The Company's functional and reporting currency is the Renminbi (“RMB”).
Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are re-measured into RMB at the exchange rates quoted by the People's Bank of China (the “PBOC”) prevailing at the dates of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are re-measured into RMB using the applicable exchange rates quoted by the PBOC at the balance sheet dates. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are re-measured using the exchange rates at the dates of the initial transactions. Foreign exchange gain and losses are included in the statements of operations.

Fair value measurements of financial instruments

Financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, amounts due from/to related parties and long-term debt. The carrying amounts of these financial instruments, other than long-term debt, approximate their fair values due to their short-term maturities.

The carrying value of long-term debt approximates its fair value due to the fact that the related interest rate is based on prevailing market interest rates.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include all cash balances and highly liquid investments with an initial maturity of three months or less.
Accounts receivable and allowance for doubtful accounts
The Company's sole customer is China Sports Lottery. Accounts receivable from China Sports Lottery are recorded at the invoiced amount, do not bear interest and are due within three months of invoice issuance. The allowance for doubtful accounts is our best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in our existing accounts receivable; however, changes in circumstances relating to accounts receivable may result in additional allowances in the future. We determine the allowance based on historical experience, current market trends and China Sports Lottery's ability to pay outstanding balances. Account balances are charged against the allowance after all collection efforts have been evaluated and the potential for recovery is considered remote. There were no amounts recorded as allowance for doubtful accounts at December 31, 2011.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Inventories
Inventories consist primarily of raw materials, work-in-progress and finished goods. Inventories are stated at lower of cost or market. Cost is determined by the weighted-average method. Cost of raw materials are based on purchase costs while costs of work-in-progress and finished goods are comprised of direct material and direct labor and an appropriate portion of overhead costs. Adjustments are made to write down excess or obsolete inventories to their estimated realizable values.

Property and equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost on acquisition date and depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:
 
Item 
 
 
Estimated useful life
Machinery 

 
 
 5-10 years 
Office equipment and others
 
 
3-5 years
Transportation equipment
 
 
4 years
Purchased software
 
 
3 years
Leasehold improvements

 

 
Over the shorter of the estimated useful lives of the assets or the lease terms
Repair and maintenance costs that do not improve or extend the useful lives of the assets are charged to expense as incurred, whereas the cost of major additions or improvements that extends the useful lives of property and equipment are capitalized as additions to the related assets. Retirements, sales and disposals of assets are recorded by removing the cost and accumulated depreciation, with any resulting gain or loss reflected in the statements of operations.

Income taxes
Income taxes are accounted for under the liability method. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis, as well as operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. A valuation allowance is provided to reduce the amount of deferred tax assets if it is considered more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rate is recognized in the statements of operations in the period that includes the enactment date.
The Company applies Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 740-10, Income Taxes: Overall (“ASC 740-10”) to account for uncertainty in income taxes. ASC 740-10 requires that an entity recognizes in the financial statements the impact of a tax position, if that position is not more likely than not to be sustained upon examination, based on the technical merits of the position. Recognized income tax positions are measured at the largest amount that is greater than fifty percent likely of being realized on a cumulative probability basis. Changes in recognition or measurement are reflected in the period in which the change in judgment occurs. The Company has elected to classify interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits, if and when required, as part of income tax expense in the statements of operations. For the years ended December 31, 2011, no unrecognized tax benefits or interest and penalties associated with uncertainty in income taxes have been recognized.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

Impairment of long-lived assets
The Company evaluates its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances, such as a significant adverse change to market conditions that will impact the future use of assets, indicates that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. When these events occur, the Company assesses the recoverability of long-lived assets by comparing the carrying amount of the assets to the expected future undiscounted cash flows resulting from the use of the assets and their eventual disposition. If the sum of the expected undiscounted cash flow is less than the carrying amount of the assets, the Company recognizes an impairment loss based on the excess of the carrying amount of the assets over their fair value. Fair value is generally determined by discounting the cash flows expected to be generated by the assets, when the market prices are not readily available. No impairment of long-lived assets was recognized for any of the years presented.

Comprehensive Income

Comprehensive income is defined as the change in shareholders' equity of the Company during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances excluding transactions resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners. Comprehensive income is reported in the statement of changes in shareholders' equity.

Revenue recognition
Revenue is recognized only when the following four criteria are met (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) lottery tickets have been delivered (iii) fees are fixed or determinable, and (iv) collectability is reasonably assured. The Company allows returns of defective and obsolete lottery tickets. Estimates of such sales returns, which reduce net revenues, is based on the Company's historical experience.
Revenue is recorded net of value-added and business taxes.

Selling expenses
Selling expenses represent shipping and handling costs which are expensed as incurred.

Leases
The Company enters into operating leases wherein rental payments are expensed on a straight-line basis over their lease terms.

Government grants
Government grants are recognized where there is reasonable assurance that the grant will be received and all conditions will be complied with. When the grant relates to an expense item, it is recognized over the periods necessary to match the grant on a systematic basis to the costs that it is intended to compensate.

Employee Benefits

The Company's full time employees in the PRC participate in a government-mandated defined contribution plan pursuant to which certain medical care, unemployment insurance, employee housing fund and other welfare benefits are provided to employees. PRC labor regulations require the Company to accrue for these benefits based on certain percentages of the employee' salaries, subject to a certain limit, depending on the location of employment. The total contributions for such employee benefits, which was expensed as incurred were RMB 6,955,289 (unaudited), RMB 8,789,836 (unaudited) and RMB 6,659,090 for the years ended December 31, 2009, 2010 and 2011, respectively.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

Statutory reserves
In accordance with the Regulations on Enterprises with Foreign Investment of China and its Articles of Association, the Company, being a foreign invested enterprise established in the PRC, is required to provide certain statutory reserves, namely the enterprise expansion fund and a staff welfare and bonus fund, both of which are appropriated from net profit as reported in the enterprise's PRC statutory accounts. Appropriations to the enterprise expansion fund and staff welfare and bonus fund are at the discretion of the board of directors of the Company for all foreign invested enterprises. The aforementioned reserves can only be used for specific purposes and are not distributable as dividends.
As a result of the PRC laws, rules and regulations that require annual appropriations of after-tax income to be set aside prior to payment of dividends as statutory reserves, the Company is restricted in their ability to transfer a portion of their net assets in the form of dividend payments, loans or advances.

Concentrations of risks

Concentrations of credit risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentration of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. As of December 31, 2010 and 2011, substantially all of the Company's cash and cash equivalents were deposited in several financial institutions that management believes are of high credit quality.
Accounts receivable are unsecured and derived from revenue earned from the Company's sole customer, China Sports Lottery.
Due to the Company's dependence on China Sports Lottery, any negative events or deterioration in our relationship with China Sports Lottery may cause material loss to the Company and have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition and results of operations. As of December 31, 2011, there were no past due accounts receivables from China Sports Lottery and no past history of payment default. Therefore, management is of the view that an allowance for doubtful accounts is not necessary for accounts receivables.

Business and economic risks
The Company believes that changes in any of the following areas could have a material adverse effect on the Company's future financial position, results of operations or cash flows: changes in the overall demand for services and products from and its customer relationship with its sole customer, China Sports Lottery; competitive pressures due to new entrants; advances and new trends in new technologies and industry standards; and regulatory considerations.
Interest rate risk
The Company's exposure to interest rate risk primarily relates to the Company's long-term debt obligations. As of December 31, 2011, if the interest rate increases by 100 basis points, with all other variables held constant, the Company's net income and shareholders' equity would decrease by RMB800,000 for the year ended December 31, 2011.
Foreign currency exchange rate risk
The Company's exposure to foreign currency exchange rate risk primarily relates to cash and cash equivalents and transactions with related parties denominated in U.S. dollars.

Recently issued accounting standards
In May 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU No. 2011-04, Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRS. The new guidance amends the accounting and disclosure requirements on fair value measurements. The new guidance limits the highest-and-best-use measure to nonfinancial assets, permits certain financial assets and liabilities with offsetting positions in market or counterparty credit risks to be measured at a net basis, and provides guidance on the applicability of premiums and discounts. Additionally, the new guidance expands the disclosures on Level 3 inputs by requiring quantitative disclosure of the unobservable inputs and assumptions, as well as description of the valuation processes and the sensitivity of the fair value to changes in unobservable inputs. Nonpublic entities shall begin applying these requirements for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2011. The Company does not anticipate any material impact on its financial statements upon adoption.
In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-05, Presentation of Comprehensive Income. The new guidance eliminates the current option to report other comprehensive income and its components in the statement of changes in equity. Instead, an entity will be required to present net income and other comprehensive income either in one continuous statement or in two separate but consecutive statements. Nonpublic entities should begin applying these requirements for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2012.

7. INCOME TAX EXPENSE
Pursuant to the PRC New Corporate Income Tax Law (the “New CIT Law”), which became effective on January 1, 2008, PRC resident enterprises including both domestic-invested and foreign invested enterprises are subject to a unified income tax rate of 25%. However, enterprises that qualify as High and New Technology Enterprise (“HNTE”) are entitled to the preferential CIT rate of 15%. In April 2011, the Company obtained the HNTE certificate which was effective retroactively from January 1, 2010, to December 31, 2012. Thus, the Company should be eligible for a preferential CIT rate of 15% retroactive from January 1, 2010 to December 31, 2012. The Company is obligated to complete an annual self-assessment to confirm its continued compliance with the criteria for HNTEs in order to apply the preferential tax rate. The HNTE certificate is valid for three years and the HNTE status is subject to approval and renewal every three years after the initial three-year term.

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2011
(WITH INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT THEREON)






















                                       

Independent Auditors' Report

The Board of Directors
Beijing Guard Libang Technology Co., Ltd.

We have audited the accompanying statement of financial position of Beijing Guard Libang Technology Co., Ltd. as at December 31, 2011 and the related statement of comprehensive income, changes in equity, and cash flows for the year then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the
purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe
that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Beijing Guard Libang Technology Co., Ltd. as at December 31, 2011, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended, in conformity with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.

BASIS OF PREPARATION (CONTINUED)

(b)
Basis of measurement

Unless otherwise stated, the financial statements have been prepared on historical cost basis.

(c)
Functional and presentation currency

These financial statements are presented in Renminbi (“RMB”), which is the Company's functional currency.

(d)
Use of estimates and judgements

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRSs requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimates are revised and in any future periods affected.

Information about critical judgements in applying accounting policies that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements is included in the following notes:

Note 8 - Property, plant and equipment: determination of the estimated useful life of property, plant and equipment
Note 14 - Deferred tax assets: the realizability of deferred tax assets
Note 16 - Financial instruments: credit risk


3
SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

These accounting policies set out below have been applied consistently to all periods presented in these financial statements and in preparing the opening IFRS statement of financial position at January 1, 2010 for the purpose of the transition to IFRSs, unless otherwise indicated.

(a)
Financial Instruments

The Company initially recognises loans and receivables and deposits on the date that they are originated. All other financial assets are recognised initially on the trade date at which the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.









6

                                       

3
SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

(a)
Financial Instruments (continued)

The Company derecognises a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire, or it transfers the rights to receive the contractual cash flows on the financial asset in a transaction in which substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are transferred. Any interest in transferred financial assets that is created or retained by the Company is recognised as a separate asset or liability.

Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount presented in the statement of financial position when, and only when, the Company has a legal right to offset the amounts and intends either to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

The Company's non-derivative financial assets include trade and other receivables.

Trade and other receivables

Trade and other receivables are financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. Such assets are recognized initially at fair value plus any directly attributable transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, trade and other receivables are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any allowance for impairment of doubtful debts (see note 3(f)).

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash balances and demand deposits with original maturities of three months or less. Bank overdrafts that are repayable on demand and form an integral part of the Company's cash management are included as a component of cash and cash equivalents for the purpose of the statement of cash flows.

(b)
Property, plant and equipment

(i)
Recognition and measurement

Items of property, plant and equipment are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses (see note 3(f)).

















7

                                       

3
SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

(b)
Property, plant and equipment (continued)

(i)
Recognition and measurement (continued)

Cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset. The cost of self-constructed assets includes the following:

the cost of materials and direct labour;
any other costs directly attributable to bringing the assets to a working condition for their intended use;
when the Company has an obligation to remove the asset or restore the site, an estimate of the costs of dismantling and removing the items and restoring the site on which they are located; and
capitalised borrowing costs.

When parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate items (major components) of property, plant and equipment.

Any gain or loss on disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment (calculated as the difference between the net proceeds from disposal and the carrying amount of the item) is recognised in profit or loss.

(ii)
Subsequent costs

Subsequent expenditure is capitalised only when it is probable that the future economic benefits associated with the expenditure will flow to the Company. Ongoing repairs and maintenance is expensed as incurred.

(iii)
Depreciation

Items of property, plant and equipment are depreciated on a straight-line basis in profit or loss over the estimated useful lives of each component.

Items of property, plant and equipment are depreciated from the date that they are installed and are ready for use, or in respect of internally constructed assets, from the date that the asset is completed and ready for use.

The estimated useful life for the Company's property, plant and equipment are as follows:
Lottery system equipment
 
1-5 years
Office equipment
 
5 years
Office furniture
 
5 years
Motor vehicles
 
5 years







8

                                       

3    SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

(c)
Research and development

Expenditure on research activities, undertaken with the prospect of gaining new scientific or technical knowledge and understanding, is recognised in profit or loss as incurred.

Development activities involve a plan or design for the production of new or substantially improved products and processes. Development expenditure is capitalised only if development costs can be measured reliably, the product or process is technically and commercially feasible, future economic benefits are probable, and the Company intends to and has sufficient resources to complete development and to use or sell the asset. The expenditure capitalised includes the cost of materials, direct labour, overhead costs that are directly attributable to preparing the asset for its intended use, and capitalised borrowing costs. Capitalised development expenditure is measured at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses. Other development expenditure is recognised in profit or loss as incurred.

In 2011, the research and development expenditure recognised in profit or loss is RMB 8,130,950 (2010 (unaudited): RMB 2,397,319).

(d)
Leased assets

Leases in terms of which the Company assumes substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership are transferred are classified as finance leases. On initial recognition, the leased asset is measured at an amount equal to the lower of its fair value and the present value of the minimum lease payments. Subsequent to initial recognition, the asset is accounted for in accordance with the accounting policy applicable to that asset.

Other leases are operating leases and are not recognised in the Company's statement of financial position.

(e)
Inventories

Inventories are carried at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost represents purchase cost of spare parts calculated using the specific identification method. Net realizable value is determined by reference to the sales proceeds of items sold or services rendered in the ordinary course of business or to management's estimates based on prevailing market conditions.

When spare parts are sold or used, the carrying amount of those inventories is recognized as costs of sales and expenses. The amount of any write-down of inventories to net realizable value and all losses of inventories are recognized as an expense in the period the write-down or loss occurs. The amount of any reversal of any write-down of inventories, arising from an increase in net realizable value, is recognized as a reduction in the amount of inventories









9

                                       

recognized as an expense in the period in which the reversal occurs. No reversal of any write-down of inventories occurred during the years presented.

(f)
Impairment

(i)
Non-derivative financial assets

A financial asset not classified as at fair value through profit or loss is assessed at each reporting date to determine whether there is objective evidence that it is impaired. A financial asset is impaired if there is objective evidence of impairment as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the asset, and that loss events had an impact on the estimated future cash flows of that asset that can be estimated reliably.

Objective evidence that financial assets are impaired includes default or delinquency by a debtor, restructuring of an amount due to the Company on terms that the Company would not consider otherwise, indications that a debtor or issuer will enter bankruptcy, adverse changes in payment status of borrowers or issuers, economic conditions that correlate with defaults or the disappearance of an active market for a security. In addition, for an investment in an equity security, a significant or prolonged decline in its fair value below its cost is objective evidence of impairment.

Financial assets measured at amortised cost

The Company considers evidence of impairment for financial assets measured at amortised cost at a specific asset level. All individual significant assets are assessed for specific impairment. Those found not to be specifically impaired are then collectively assessed for any impairment that has been incurred but not yet identified. Assets are not individually significant are collectively assessed for impairment by grouping together assets with similar risk characteristics.

In assessing collective impairment, the Company uses the historical trends of the probability of default, the timing of recoveries and the amount of loss incurred, adjusted for management's judgement as to whether current economic and credit conditions are such that the actual loss are likely to be greater or less than suggested by historical trends.

An impairment loss in respect of a financial asset measured at amortised cost is calculated as the difference between its carrying amount and the present value of the estimated future cash flows discounted at the asset's original effective interest rate. Losses are recognised in profit or loss and reflected in an allowance account against the related financial assets. When an event occurring after the impairment was recognised causes the amount of impairment loss to decrease, the decrease in impairment loss is reversed through profit or loss.









10

                                       

3    SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

(f)
Impairment (continued)

(i)
Non-derivative financial assets (continued)

Impairment of doubtful debts

Receivables are assessed for impairment on an individual basis. The provision for bad and doubtful debts is estimated by management based on individual accounts receivable which show signs of un-collectability and an ageing analysis. Provision for other receivables is determined based on their specific nature and management's estimate of their collectability.

(ii)
Non-financial assets

The carrying amounts of the Company's non-financial assets, other than biological assets, investment property, inventories and deferred tax assets, are reviewed at each reporting date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, then the asset's recoverable amount is estimated. An impairment loss is recognised if the carrying amount of an asset or cash generating unit (“CGU”) exceeds its recoverable amount.

The recoverable amount of an asset is the greater of its value in use and its fair value less costs to sell. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. For the purpose of impairment testing, assets are grouped together into the smallest group of assets that generates cash inflows from continuing use that are largely independent of the cash inflows of other assets or CGUs.

Impairment losses are recognised in profit or loss. Impairment losses recognised in respect of CGUs are allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the CGU (group of CGUs), and then to reduce the carrying amounts of the other assets in the CGU (group of CGUs) on a pro rata basis.

An impairment loss in respect of goodwill is not reversed. For other assets, impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset's carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortisation, if no impairment loss had been recognised.

3    SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

(g)
Employee benefits

(i)
Defined contribution plans

Pursuant to the relevant laws and regulations in the PRC, the Company has joined a defined contribution retirement plan for the employees arranged by a governmental organisation. A defined contribution plan is a post-employment benefit plan under which an entity pays fixed contributions into a separate entity and has no legal or constructive obligation to pay further amounts. The Company makes contributions to the retirement scheme at the applicable rates based on the employees' salaries.

Obligations for contribution to defined contribution plans are recognised as an employee benefit expense in profit or loss in the periods during which related services are rendered by employees. Prepaid contributions are recognised as an asset to the extent that a cash refund or a reduction in future payments is available. Contributions to a defined contribution plan that are due more than 12 months after the end of the period in which the employees render the service are discounted to their present value.

(ii)
Short-term employee benefits

Short-term employee benefits are measured on an undiscounted basis and are expensed as the related service is provided. A liability is recognised for the amount expected to be paid under short-term cash bonus or profit-sharing plans if the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation to pay this amount as a result of past service provided by the employee, and the obligation can be estimated reliably.

(h)
Provisions

A provision is recognised if, as a result of a past event, the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation that can be estimated reliably, and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation. Provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability. The unwinding of the discount is recognised as finance cost.

Where it is not probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required, or the amount cannot be estimated reliably, the obligation is disclosed as a contingent liability, unless the probability of outflow of economic benefits is remote. Possible obligations, whose existence will only be confirmed by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more future events, are also disclosed as contingent liabilities unless the probability of outflow of economic benefits is remote.

3    SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

(i)
Revenue

Revenue is recognized to the extent that it is probable the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the Company and the amount of revenue can be reliably measured. Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received, excluding discounts and taxes. Specific recognition criteria must also be met before revenue is recognised as discussed below.

The Company's revenue is derived from the long term lottery system service contracts with CWLC and its provincial welfare lottery centers in the PRC. Under these service contracts, the Company provides transaction processing software for the accounting and validation of instant lottery tickets, technical services of communication technology and solution, system integration, installation and testing, ongoing support and maintenance, consulting and training, and the provision of lottery equipment such as point-of-sale terminals and central site computers. The service contracts provide for a service fee based on a percentage of the retail lottery tickets sales. Since the total service fee from each contract cannot be estimated reliably during the contract term, revenue is recognized based on actual retail lottery ticket sales on a monthly basis. Fees earned under the service contracts are recognized as revenue in the period when all of the following criteria are met:

Persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, which is typically when a customer contract has been signed;
Services have been rendered;
The fee is deemed to be fixed or determinable and free of contingencies or significant uncertainties; and
Collectability is reasonably assured.

(j)
Leases

(i)
Lease payments

Payments made under operating leases are recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Lease incentives received are recognised as an integral part of the total lease expense, over the term of the lease.

Minimum lease payments made under finance leases are apportioned between the finance expense and the reduction of the outstanding liability. The finance expense is allocated to each period during the lease term so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability.










13

                                       

3    SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

(j)
Leases (continued)

(i)
Determining whether an arrangement contains a lease

At inception of an arrangement, the Company determines whether such an arrangement is or contains a lease. This will be the case if the following two criteria are met:

the fulfilment of the arrangement is dependent on the use of a specific asset or assets; and
the arrangement contains a right to use the asset(s).

At inception or on reassessment of the arrangement, the Company separates payments and other consideration required by such an arrangement into those for other elements on the basis of their relative fair values. Subsequently the liability is reduced as payments are made and an imputed finance cost on the liability is recognised using the Company's incremental borrowing rate.

(k)
Finance income and finance costs

Finance income comprises interest income on funds invested and gains on the disposal of available-for-sale financial assets. Interest income is recognised as it accrues in profit or loss, using the effective interest method.

Finance costs comprise interest expense on borrowings, unwinding of the discount on provisions and contingent consideration, losses on disposal of available-for-sale financial assets, and impairment losses recognised on financial assets (other than trade receivables).

(l)
Income tax

Income tax expense comprises current and deferred taxes. Current tax and deferred tax are recognised in profit or loss except to the extent that they relate to business combinations, or items recognised directly in equity and other comprehensive income.

Current tax is the expected tax payable or receivable on the taxable income or loss for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years.














14

                                       

3    SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

(l)
Income tax (continued)

Deferred tax is recognised in respect of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. Deferred tax is not recognised for:

Temporary difference on the initial recognition of assets or liabilities in a transaction that is not a business combination and that affects neither accounting nor taxable profit of loss;
Temporary differences related to investments in subsidiaries and jointly controlled entities to the extent that it is probable that they will not reverse in the foreseeable future; and
Taxable temporary differences arsing on the initial recognition of goodwill.

Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates that are expected to be applied to temporary differences when they reverse, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.

In determining the amount of current and deferred tax, the Company take into account the impact of uncertain tax positions and whether additional taxes and interest may be due. The Company believes that its accruals for tax liabilities are adequate for all open tax years based on its assessment of many factors, including interpretations of tax law and prior experience. This assessment relies on estimates and assumptions and may involve a series of judgements about future events. New information may become available that causes the Company to change its judgement regarding the adequacy of existing tax liabilities; such changes to tax liabilities will impact tax expense in the period that such a determination is made.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax liabilities and assets, and they relate to taxes levied by the same tax authority on the same taxable entity, or on different entities, but they intend to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis or their tax assets and liabilities will be realised simultaneously.

A deferred tax asset is recognised for unused tax losses, tax credits and deductible temporary difference to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which they can be utilised. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realised. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are not discounted.

ADVANCES TO SUPPLIERS

Advances to suppliers represent prepayments for lottery service equipment, which were purchased but not yet received by the Company as at December 31, 2011 and 2010.

According to the terms of purchase contracts, the Company is normally required to pay 15% of the purchase price in advance. The Company makes the prepayments without any collaterals. As a result, the Company's claims for such prepayments would rank only as an unsecured claim, which exposes the Company to credit risks of the suppliers.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Exposure to credit, liquidity and interest rate risks arises in the normal course of the Company's business. The Company's exposure to these risks and the financial risk management policies and practices used by the Company to manage these risks are described below:

(a)
Credit risk

The Company's credit risk is primarily attributable to trade and other receivables. Management has a credit policy in place and the exposures to these credit risks are monitored on an ongoing basis.











20

                                       


16    FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (CONTINUED)

(a)
Credit risk (continued)

The Company primarily evaluates customers' credit status and their ability to guarantee payment through its establishment of an appropriate business evaluation system. The Company generally requires customers to settle progress billings in accordance with contracted terms in accordance with agreements. Credit terms are granted to customers, based on credit assessment carried out by management on an individual basis.

The Company currently has only one customer, the CWLC and its provincial welfare lottery centers, which gives rise to significant concentration of credit risk.

(b)
Liquidity risk

The Company's objective in managing liquidity risk is to maintain a balance between continuity of funding and flexibility through the use of cash generated by operating activities. Management believes the Company's ability to generate sufficient cash from operations to reinvest in its business is one of its fundamental financial strengths, and combined with the Company's business cash generating capacity, management expects to meet the Company's financial obligations and operating needs in the foreseeable future.

The Company does not have any remaining financial liabilities, including derivatives, with maturity dates that exceed 12 months.

The Company did not enter into any lines of credit or borrowing arrangements with banks.

(c)
Interest rate risk

The Company does not have financing arrangements with banks. Consequently, changes in market interest rates would not have a significant effect on the Company's net income and net equity.
