Gaming Partners International Corporation Reports 2015 Fourth-Quarter and Year Results
Las Vegas, NV (PR Newswire) (March 24, 2016) — Gaming Partners International Corporation (NASDAQ: GPIC), a leading worldwide provider of casino currency and table gaming equipment, announced financial results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2015.
During the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2015, the Company posted net income of $3.4 million, or $0.43 per diluted share, on revenues of $23.5 million. This compares to net income of $2.2 million, or $0.27 diluted share, on $19.9 million in revenue for the fourth quarter of 2014. The increase in net income for the fourth quarter is primarily attributable to a gain of $1.3 million on the sale of our building and land in Las Vegas, Nevada. The increase in revenue is primarily due to a new casino opening in Macau.
For the year ended 2015, the Company posted net income of $6.9 million, or $0.86 per diluted share, on revenues of $78.2 million. This compares to net income of $2.7 million, or $0.33 per diluted share, and revenues of $61.0 million for the year ended 2014. Primary factors contributing to the increase in revenue and net income for the year were the successful integration and leveraging of our 2014 acquisition of Gemaco, Inc., and new casino openings in Asia. Our 2015 results include twelve months of Gemaco activity while 2014 results include only six.
“2015 was a very good year for GPIC. The expanded manufacturing capabilities and operational efficiencies obtained from a successful integration of Gemaco positively impacted our revenues and bottom line. In 2015, our playing card sales accounted for nearly 31% of revenues, up from 25% in 2014,” commented Greg Gronau, GPIC President and Chief Executive Officer. “We were successful in winning new playing card business in the United States and significant casino currency orders in Asia. These wins combined with an increased demand for our other product lines resulted in strong revenue growth and net income for the year.”
