FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Throughout this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we make “forward-looking��forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements describe future expectations, plans, results or strategies and can often be identified by the use of terminology such as “may,” “will,” “estimate,” “intend,” “plan,” “continue,” “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “target,” “should,” “could,” “potential,” “opportunity,” “goal” or similar terminology. The forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are generally located in the material set forth under the heading “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” but may be found in other locations as well. These statements are based upon management’s current expectations, assumptions and estimates and are not guarantees of timing, future results or performance. Therefore, you should not rely on any of these forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. Actual results may differ materially from those contemplated in these statements due to a variety of risks and uncertainties and other factors, including, among other things:
competition;
U.S. and international economic and industry conditions;
slow growth of new gaming jurisdictions, slow addition of casinos in existing jurisdictions and declines in the replacement cycle of gaming machines;
ownership changes and consolidation in the gaming industry;
opposition to legalized gaming or the expansion thereof and potential restrictions on internet wagering;
inability to adapt to, and offer products that keep pace with, evolving technology, including any failure of our investment of significant resources in our R&D efforts;
inability to develop successful products and services and capitalize on trends and changes in our industries, including the expansion of internet and other forms of interactive gaming;
laws and government regulations, both foreign and domestic, including those relating to gaming, data privacy and security, including with respect to the collection, storage, use, transmission and protection of personal information and other consumer data, and environmental laws, and those laws and regulations that affect companies conducting business on the internet, including online gambling;
the continuing evolution of the scope of data privacy and security regulations, and our belief that the adoption of increasingly restrictive regulations in this area is likely within the U.S. and other jurisdictions;
significant opposition in some jurisdictions to interactive social gaming, including social casinos and how such opposition could lead these jurisdictions to adopt legislation or impose a regulatory framework to govern interactive social gaming or social casinos specifically, and how this could result in a prohibition on interactive social gaming or social casinos altogether, restrict our ability to advertise our games, or substantially increase our costs to comply with these regulations;
legislative interpretation and enforcement, regulatory perception and regulatory risks with respect to gaming, especially internet wagering, social gaming and sports wagering;
reliance on technological blocking systems;
expectations of shift to regulated online gaming or sports wagering;
expectations of growth in total consumer spending on social casino gaming;
SciPlay’s dependence uponon certain key providers in our Social gaming business;

providers;
inability to win, retain or renew, or unfavorable revisions of, existing contracts, and the inability to enter into new contracts;

security and integrity of our products and systems;
reliance on or failures in information technology and other systems;
security breaches and cyber-attacks, challenges or disruptions relating to the implementation of a new global enterprise resource planning system;

failure to maintain adequate internal control over financial reporting;
natural events that disrupt our operations or those of our customers, suppliers or regulators;
inability to benefit from, and risks associated with, strategic equity investments and relationships;
risks related to the initial public offering of a minority interest in our socialSocial gaming business via the SciPlay initial public offering, including the possibility that the anticipated benefits of the initial public offering are not realized or that we may not be able to utilize the proceeds of the initial public offering as expected;realized;
incurrence of restructuring costs;
implementation of complex new accounting standards;
changes in estimates or judgments related to our impairment analysis of goodwill or other intangible assets;
changes in demand for our products;
fluctuations in our results due to seasonality and other factors;
dependence on suppliers and manufacturers;
risks relating to foreign operations, including anti-corruption laws, fluctuations in currency rates, restrictions on the payment of dividends from earnings, restrictions on the import of products and financial instability, including the potential impact to our business resulting from the considerable uncertainty around the U.K.’s withdrawal from the European Union (“EU”) and the possibility of the British parliament’s failure to approve the U.K.’s withdrawal from the EU, resulting in a “hard Brexit” or “no deal Brexit”;
possibility that the renewal of LNS’ concession to operate the Italian instant games lottery is not finalized (including as the result of a protest or any right of appeal on a court ruling on a protest);
the impact of the new U.K. legislation approving the reduction of fixed-odds betting terminals maximum stakes limit;
changes in tax laws or tax rulings, or the examination of our tax positions;
difficulty predicting what impact, if any, the shutdown of the U.S. government or new tariffs imposed by and other trade actions taken by the U.S. and foreign jurisdictions could have on our business;
dependence on key employees;
litigation and other liabilities relating to our business, including litigation and liabilities relating to our contracts and licenses, our products and systems, our employees (including labor disputes), intellectual property, environmental laws and our strategic relationships;

level of our indebtedness, higher interest rates, availability or adequacy of cash flows and liquidity to satisfy indebtedness, other obligations or future cash needs;
inability to reduce or refinance our indebtedness;
restrictions and covenants in debt agreements, including those that could result in acceleration of the maturity of our indebtedness;
influence of certain stockholders, including decisions that may conflict with the interests of other stockholders; and
stock price volatility.
Additional information regarding risks and uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contemplated in forward-looking statements is included from time to time in our filings with the SEC, including under Part I, Item 1A “Risk Factors” in our 2018 10-K. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made and, except for our ongoing obligations under the U.S. federal securities laws, we undertake no and expressly disclaim any obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
You should also note that this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q may contain references to industry market data and certain industry forecasts. Industry market data and industry forecasts are obtained from publicly available information and industry publications. Industry publications generally state that the information contained therein has been obtained from sources believed to be reliable, but that the accuracy and completeness of that information is not guaranteed. Although we


5




believe industry information to be accurate, it is not independently verified by us and we do not make any representation as to the accuracy of that information. In general, we believe there is less publicly available information concerning the international gaming, lottery, social and digital gaming industries than the same industries in the U.S.

SCIENTIFIC GAMES CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited, amounts in USD, table amounts in millions, except per share amounts)


(1) Description of the Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Description of the Business
We are a leading developer of technology-based products and services and associated content for the worldwide gaming, lottery, social and digital gaming industries. Our portfolio of revenue-generating activities primarily includes supplying gaming machines and game content, casino-management systems and table game products and services to licensed gaming entities; providing instant and draw-based lottery products, lottery systems and lottery content and services to lottery operators; providing social casino solutions to retail consumers; and providing a comprehensive suite of digital RMG and sports wagering solutions, distribution platforms, content, products and services. We report our operations in four business segments—Gaming, Lottery, SciPlay (formerly referred to as our Social business segment) and Digital.
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of SGC and those subsidiaries in which we have a controlling financial interest. Investments in other entities in which we do not have a controlling financial interest but we exert significant influence are accounted for in our condensed consolidated financial statements using the equity method of accounting. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
In the opinion of SGC and its management, we have made all adjustments necessary to present fairly our consolidated financial position, results of operations and comprehensive lossincome (loss) and cash flows for the periods presented. Such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our 2018 10-K. Interim results of operations are not necessarily indicative of results of operations to be expected for a full year.
SciPlay Initial Public Offering and Noncontrolling Interest

On May 7, 2019, SciPlay completed an initial public offering (“IPO”) for an 18.0% minority interest in our Social gaming business, after giving effect to the underwriters’ partial exercise of their over-allotment option on June 4, 2019. SciPlay has two classes of common stock - Class A common stock, which is traded on The NASDAQ Global Select Market under the symbol “SCPL,” and Class B common stock. On all matters submitted to a vote of SciPlay stockholders, Class B common stock entitles SGC to ten votes per share (for so long as the number of shares of SciPlay common stock beneficially owned by SGC represents at least 10% of SciPlay’s outstanding shares of common stock and, thereafter, one vote per share), and SciPlay Class A common stock entitles its owners to one vote per share. As of June 30, 2019, SGC owned all of the outstanding Class B common stock, which represents approximately 82.0% of SciPlay’s total outstanding shares of common stock and approximately 97.9% of the combined voting power of both classes of SciPlay’s outstanding common stock. Accordingly, SGC continues to control shares representing a majority of the combined voting power in SciPlay and continues to have a controlling financial interest in and consolidate SciPlay, (formerly referred to as our Social business segment) subsequent to the IPO.
The corporate structure of the above transaction is commonly referred to as an “Up‑C” structure, which is often used by partnerships and limited liability companies when they undertake an initial public offering of their business. The Up‑C structure allows us to continue to realize tax benefits associated with owning interests in an entity that is treated as a partnership, or “pass-through” entity, for income tax purposes following the IPO. We continue to maintain a full valuation allowance on certain of our U.S. net deferred tax assets, and we continue to monitor and assess positive and negative evidence with respect to our ability to realize our deferred tax assets.
In connection with the SciPlay IPO we also entered into the following transactions:
A tax receivable agreement (“TRA”), which provides for the payment by SciPlay to SGC of 85% of the amount of tax benefits, if any, that SciPlay actually realizes (or in some circumstances is deemed to realize) as a result of (i) increases in the tax basis of assets of SciPlay Parent Company, LLC (“SciPlay Parent LLC”) (a) in connection with the SciPlay IPO, (b) resulting from any redemptions or exchanges of membership interests of SciPlay Parent LLC pursuant to the SciPlay Parent LLC Operating Agreement or (c) resulting from certain distributions (or deemed distributions) by SciPlay Parent LLC and (ii) certain other tax benefits related to SciPlay’s making of payments under the TRA.

An Intercompany Services Agreement, under which SGC provides to SciPlay certain corporate level general and administrative services, including but not limited to, finance, corporate development, human resources, legal (which could include liability related to litigation awards related to SciPlay), information technology and rental fees for shared assets. These expenses will be charged to SciPlay and settled in cash.

An intellectual property license agreement (“IP License Agreement”), pursuant to which SciPlay acquired the following licenses from a restricted subsidiary of SGC for a one-time payment of $255 million: (i) an exclusive (subject to certain limited exceptions), perpetual, non-royalty bearing license to use intellectual property created or acquired by Bally Gaming, Inc. (“Bally Gaming”) or its affiliates on or before the third anniversary of the date of the IP License Agreement (the date of the IP License Agreement, the “Effective Date”), in any of the Covered Games (defined as any of SciPlay’s currently available or future social games that are developed for mobile platforms, social media platforms, internet platforms or other interactive platforms and distributed solely via digital delivery); (ii) an exclusive (subject to certain limited exceptions and payment of royalties owed to third-party licensors for SciPlay’s use of third-party licensed property) license to use third-party intellectual property licensed to Bally Gaming or its affiliates on or before the third anniversary of the Effective Date, to the extent permitted to be sublicensed to SciPlay, in any of the Covered Games; (iii) a non-exclusive, perpetual, non-royalty bearing license to use intellectual property created or acquired by Bally Gaming or its affiliates after the third anniversary of the Effective Date, but only in SciPlay’s currently available games; and (iv) a non-exclusive license to use third-party intellectual property licensed to Bally Gaming or its affiliates after the third anniversary of the Effective Date, to the extent permitted to be sublicensed to SciPlay, but only in SciPlay’s currently available games.

As a result of the IP License Agreement described above, SciPlay is no longer required to pay to Bally Gaming future royalties and or fees for use of intellectual property owned by Bally Gaming or its affiliates for SciPlay’s currently available games. Accordingly, and commencing with the effectiveness of the IP License Agreement as of May 7, 2019, our Gaming business segment AEBITDA no longer benefited from these charges, while our SciPlay business segment AEBITDA increased proportionately. The total amount of such IP charges for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 were $3 million and $10 million, respectively, and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 were $6 million and $13 million, respectively. The total amount of such IP charges for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 were $26 million and $24 million, respectively.
SciPlay Holding Company, LLC (“SciPlay Holding”), a subsidiary of SciPlay, entered into a $150 million revolving credit agreement (the “SciPlay Revolver”) that matures in May 2024 (see Note 11).
As a result of these transactions, we received $312 million in net proceeds from the offering (net of $30 million used by SciPlay to pay the Offering fees and balance retained for general corporate purposes), which enables us to make substantial payments to reduce our debt.
The noncontrolling interest share of equity in SciPlay is reflected as a component of the noncontrolling interest in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and was $94 million as of June 30, 2019.

Significant Accounting Policies
There have been no changes to our significant accounting policies described within the Notes of our 2018 10-K other than adoption of ASC 842 described in Note 15.
Computation of Basic and Diluted Net Loss Per Share
Basic and diluted net loss per share were the same for all periods presented as all common stock equivalents would be anti-dilutive. We excluded 2 million of stock options from the diluted weighted-average common shares outstanding for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 3 million of stock options from the diluted weighted-average common shares outstanding for the three and six months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.June 30, 2018. We excluded 2 million and 3 million of RSUs from the calculation of diluted weighted-average common shares outstanding for both the three and six months ended March 31,June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.2018.
New Accounting Guidance - Recently Adopted

TheThe FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) in 2016. ASU 2016-02 combined with all subsequent amendments (collectively, “ASC 842”) requires balance sheet recognition for all leases with a lease term greater than one year to be recorded as a lease liability (on a discounted basis) with a corresponding right-of-use asset. This guidance also expands the required quantitative and qualitative disclosures for lease arrangements and gives rise to other changes impacting certain


12




aspects of lessee and lessor accounting. We adopted ASC 842 as of January 1, 2019 using the optional transition method provided by ASU 2018-11, and applied both the lessee package of practical expedients and the available lessor practical
expedients. During the first quarter of 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-01, Leases (Topic 842) to amend ASU 2016-02. This
amendment exempts both lessees and lessors from having to provide certain prior year interim disclosure information in the fiscal year in which a company adopts the new leases standard. We have provided the related transition disclosures as of the beginning of 2019 in accordance with ASU 2019-1. See our 2018 10-K Note 1 for the impact on our consolidated financial statements and Note 15 in this Quarterly Report for our lease accounting policy and the quarterly impact of our adoption of ASC 842.

In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-02, Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income. The standard allows companies to make an election to reclassify from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (AOCI) to retained earnings the stranded tax effects resulting from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017.


10




This ASU is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. The amendments in this updated guidance should be applied either in the period of adoption or retrospectively to each period in which the effect of the change in the U.S. corporate federal income tax rate in the Tax Act is recognized. We adopted this standard effective January 1, 2019. We elected not to reclassify the income tax effects of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act from AOCI to retained earnings. The adoption of this guidance did not have an effect on our consolidated financial statements.
New Accounting Guidance - Not Yet Adopted


The FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326) in 2016. The new guidance replaces the incurred loss impairment methodology in current U.S. GAAP with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. For trade and other receivables, loans and other financial instruments, we will be required to use a forward-looking expected loss model rather than the incurred loss model for recognizing credit losses which reflects losses that are probable. The new guidance will be effective for us beginning January 1, 2020. Application of the amendments is through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the effective date. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance.
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13,Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement. The new guidance amends the disclosure requirements for recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements by removing, modifying, and adding certain disclosures on fair value measurements in ASC 820. The amendments on changes in unrealized gains and losses, the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements, and the narrative description of measurement uncertainty should be applied prospectively for only the most recent interim or annual period presented in the initial fiscal year of adoption. All other amendments should be applied retrospectively to all periods presented upon their effective date. The new guidance will be effective for us beginning January 1, 2020, with early adoption permitted. We do not plan to early adopt this ASU, and we are currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance.
We do not expect that any other recently issued accounting guidance will have a significant effect on our consolidated financial statements.
Subsequent Events - Social Gaming Business Initial Public Offering

On May 7, 2019, our subsidiary SciPlay Corporation (“SciPlay”) completed an initial public offering (“IPO”) of a 17.4% minority interest in our Social gaming business. SciPlay has two classes of common stock - Class A common stock, which is traded on The NASDAQ Global Select Market under the symbol “SCPL,” and Class B common stock. On all matters submitted to a vote of SciPlay stockholders, Class B common stock entitles us to ten votes per share (for so long as the number of shares of SciPlay common stock beneficially owned by us represents at least 10% of SciPlay’s outstanding shares of common stock and, thereafter, one vote per share), and SciPlay Class A common stock entitles its owners to one vote per share. We own all of the outstanding Class B common stock, which represents approximately 82.6% of SciPlay’s total outstanding shares of common stock and approximately 97.9% of the combined voting power of both classes of SciPlay’s outstanding common stock. Accordingly, we continue to control shares representing a majority of the combined voting power in SciPlay and will continue to consolidate our Social gaming business.
The corporate structure of the above transaction is commonly referred to as an “Up‑C” structure, which is often used by partnerships and limited liability companies when they undertake an initial public offering of their business. The Up‑C structure allows us to continue to realize tax benefits associated with owning interests in an entity that is treated as a partnership, or “pass-through” entity, for income tax purposes following the IPO. The Company currently maintains a full valuation allowance on its U.S. net deferred tax assets. We will continue to monitor and assess positive and negative evidence with respect to our ability to realize our deferred tax assets, and we recognize that this transaction could have an impact on the overall valuation allowance assessment, but these impacts are still being evaluated. Any taxable gain associated with the IPO transaction is expected to be fully offset by net operating loss carryforwards, resulting in a reduction of our valuation allowance by the same amount.
In connection with the SciPlay IPO we also entered into the following transactions:
A tax receivable agreement (“TRA”), which provides for the payment by SciPlay to us of 85% of the amount of tax benefits, if any, that SciPlay actually realizes (or in some circumstances is deemed to realize) as a result of (i) increases in the tax basis of assets of SciPlay Parent Company, LLC (“SciPlay Parent LLC”) (a) in connection with the SciPlay IPO, (b) resulting from any redemptions or exchanges of membership interests of SciPlay Parent LLC pursuant to the SciPlay Parent LLC Operating Agreement or (c) resulting from certain


11




distributions (or deemed distributions) by SciPlay Parent LLC and (ii) certain other tax benefits related to SciPlay’s making of payments under the TRA. 

An Intercompany Services Agreement, under which we provide to the Social gaming business certain corporate level general and administrative services, including but not limited to, finance, corporate development, human resources, legal (which could include liability related to litigation awards related to SciPlay), information technology and rental fees for shared assets. These expenses will be charged to the Social gaming business and settled in cash.

An intellectual property license agreement (“IP License Agreement”), pursuant to which the Social gaming business acquired the following licenses from a restricted subsidiary of SGC for a one-time payment of $255 million: (i) an exclusive (subject to certain limited exceptions), perpetual, non-royalty bearing license to use intellectual property created or acquired by Bally Gaming, Inc. (“Bally Gaming”) or its affiliates on or before the third anniversary of the date of the IP License Agreement (the date of the IP License Agreement, the “Effective Date”), in any of the Covered Games (defined as any of SciPlay’s currently available or future social games that are developed for mobile platforms, social media platforms, internet platforms or other interactive platforms and distributed solely via digital delivery); (ii) an exclusive (subject to certain limited exceptions and payment of royalties owed to third-party licensors for SciPlay's use of third-party licensed property) license to use third-party intellectual property licensed to Bally Gaming or its affiliates on or before the third anniversary of the Effective Date, to the extent permitted to be sublicensed to the Social gaming business, in any of the Covered Games; (iii) a non-exclusive, perpetual, non-royalty bearing license to use intellectual property created or acquired by Bally Gaming or its affiliates after the third anniversary of the Effective Date, but only in the Social gaming business’ currently available games; and (iv) a non-exclusive license to use third-party intellectual property licensed to Bally Gaming or its affiliates after the third anniversary of the Effective Date, to the extent permitted to be sublicensed to the Social gaming business, but only in the Social gaming business’ currently available games.

As a result of IP License Agreement described above, our Social gaming business will no longer be required to pay to Bally Gaming future royalties and or fees for use of intellectual property owned by Bally Gaming or its affiliates for the Social gaming business’ currently available games. Accordingly, and commencing with the effectiveness of the IP License Agreement as of May 7, 2019, our Gaming business segment AEBITDA will no longer benefit from these charges, while our Social gaming business segment AEBITDA will increase proportionately. The total amount of such IP charges for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 were $7.3 million and $6.2 million, respectively, and for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 were $26 million and $24 million, respectively.
SciPlay Holding Company, LLC (“SciPlay Holding”), a subsidiary of SciPlay, entered into a $150 million revolving credit agreement (the “SciPlay Revolver”) by and among SciPlay Holding, as the borrower, SciPlay Parent LLC, as a guarantor, the subsidiary guarantors party thereto (which are all domestic entities that comprise our Social gaming business), the lenders party thereto and Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent and collateral agent that matures in May 2024. The interest rate is either Adjusted LIBOR (as defined in the SciPlay Revolver) plus 2.250% (with one 0.250% leverage-based step-down to the margin and one 0.250% leverage-based step-up to the margin) or ABR (as defined in the SciPlay Revolver) plus 1.250% (with one 0.250% leverage-based step-down to the margin and one 0.250% leverage-based step-up to the margin) at the option of SciPlay Holding. SciPlay Holding is required to pay to the lenders a commitment fee of 0.500% per annum on the average daily unused portion of the revolving commitments through maturity, which fee varies based on the total net leverage ratio and is subject to a floor of 0.375%. The SciPlay Revolver provides for up to $15.0 million in letter of credit issuances, which requires customary issuance and administration fees, and a fronting fee of 0.125%.
The SciPlay Revolver contains covenants that, among other things, restrict SciPlay Holding’s, SciPlay Parent LLC’s and the subsidiary guarantors’ ability to incur additional indebtedness; incur liens; sell, transfer or dispose of property and assets; invest; make dividends or distributions or other restricted payments; and engage in affiliate transactions, with the exception of certain payments under the TRA and payments in respect of certain tax distributions under the SciPlay Parent LLC Operating Agreement.We currently do not expect the Social gaming business to declare or pay any cash dividends to us, other than tax distributions and certain cash distributions related to the impact of taxes pursuant to the TRA. If the Social gaming business discontinues the payment of, or is unable to pay, cash dividends to us, this will reduce our available liquidity. Furthermore, the terms of indebtedness incurred by the Social gaming business may, and the terms of the


12




SciPlay Revolver will, limit the ability of the Social gaming business to pay dividends or make other distributions to us, or to amend the agreements between the Social gaming business and us and our other subsidiaries.

In addition, the SciPlay Revolver requires that SciPlay maintain a maximum total net leverage ratio not to exceed 2.50:1.00 and maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of no less than 4.00:1.00. The SciPlay Revolver is secured by a (i) first priority pledge of the equity securities of SciPlay Holding, SciPlay Parent LLC’s restricted subsidiaries and each subsidiary guarantor party thereto and (ii) first priority security interests in, and mortgages on, substantially all tangible and intangible personal property and material fee-owned real property of SciPlay Parent LLC, SciPlay Holding and each subsidiary guarantor party thereto, in each case, subject to customary exceptions.

The entities that comprise our Social gaming business are unrestricted subsidiaries under our debt agreements and are therefore not subject to the covenants in our debt agreements. Conversely, only the entities that are parties to the SciPlay Revolver (which are all domestic entities that comprise our Social gaming business) and their respective restricted subsidiaries are subject to the covenants in the SciPlay Revolver. As a result, this will reduce our available liquidity and limit the ability of the Social gaming business to pay dividends or make other distributions to us, or to amend the agreements between the Social gaming business and us and our other subsidiaries. In 2018, the amount of dividends declared and paid by the Social gaming business to Bally Gaming, a wholly owned subsidiary of SGC, was $77 million.

As a result of these transactions, we received net proceeds of $301 million, which enables us to make substantial payments to reduce our debt.

(3) Business Segments
We report our operations in four business segments—Gaming, Lottery, SciPlay (formerly referred to as our Social business segment) and Digital—representing our different products and services. A detailed discussion regarding the products and services from which each reportable business segment derives its revenue is included in Notes 2 and 3 in our 2018 10-K.
In evaluating financial performance, our Chief Operating Decision Maker focuses on AEBITDA as management’s segment measure of profit or loss, which is described in Note 3 in our 2018 10-K. As a result of the on-going initial public offeringIPO of a minority interest in our Social gaming business, which was subsequently completed during the second quarter ofon May 7, 2019, we now refer to our Social business segment as our SciPlay business segment, and we also changed our calculation of SocialSciPlay business segment AEBITDA beginning with the first quarter of 2019. SocialSciPlay business segment AEBITDA now reflects intercompany charges settled in cash for corporate services and certain royalties paid for by our SocialSciPlay business segment to other segments or to Corporate (included in the “Unallocated and Reconciling Items” column in the tables below). Business segment information for the three and six months ended March 31,June 30, 2018 has been recast to reflect these changes. Additionally, see Note 1for a description of the IP License Agreement executed in conjunction with the SciPlay IPO that will impactimpacts our Gaming business segment and SocialSciPlay business segment AEBITDA commencing with the effectiveness of the IP License Agreement as of May 7, 2019. The accounting policies of our business segments are the same as those described within the Notes in our 2018 10-K. The following tables present our segment information:

Credit Quality of Receivables
The interest rates on our outstanding receivables bearing interest ranged from 3% to 10% at March 31,June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018.
We have certain concentrations of outstanding accounts and notes receivable in international locations that impact our assessment of the credit quality of those receivables. We monitor the macroeconomic and political environment in each of these locations in our assessment of the credit quality of our receivables. We have not identified changes in the aforementioned factors during the threesix months ended March 31,June 30, 2019 that require a reassessment of our receivable balances. The international locations with significant concentrations (generally deemed to be exceeding 10%) of our accounts and notes receivable are as follows:
Mexico - Our notes receivable, net, from certain customers in Mexico at March 31, 2019 was $24 million. We collected $8 million of outstanding receivables from these customers during the three months ended March 31, 2019.
Peru - Our notes receivable, net, from certain customers in Peru at March 31, 2019 was $15 million. We collected $2 million of outstanding receivables from these customers during the three months ended March 31, 2019.
Argentina - Our notes receivable, net, from customers in Argentina at March 31, 2019 was $16 million denominated in USD. Our customers are required to, and have continued to, pay us in pesos at the spot exchange rate on the date of payment. We collected $6 million of outstanding receivables from customers in Argentina during the three months ended March 31, 2019.
Mexico - Our notes receivable, net, from certain customers in Mexico at June 30, 2019 was $25 million. We collected $16 million of outstanding receivables from these customers during the six months ended June 30, 2019.
Peru - Our notes receivable, net, from certain customers in Peru at June 30, 2019 was $13 million. We collected $4 million of outstanding receivables from these customers during the six months ended June 30, 2019.
Argentina - Our notes receivable, net, from customers in Argentina at June 30, 2019 was $22 million denominated in USD. Our customers are required to, and have continued to, pay us in pesos at the spot exchange rate on the date of payment. We collected $9 million of outstanding receivables from customers in Argentina during the six months ended June 30, 2019.
In addition to the macroeconomic and political factors noted above, we also evaluated recent payments, receivables aging, any additional security or collateral we had (bills of exchange, pledge agreements, etc.) and other facts and circumstances relevant to our customers'customers’ ability to pay.

We evaluate our exposure to credit loss on notes receivable on both a collective and individual basis. In addition, we evaluate such notes receivable on a geographic basis and take into account any other factors (such as general economic conditions, other macroeconomic considerations, etc.) that could impact our collectability of notes receivable individually or in the aggregate. Accordingly, notes receivable may be evaluated under multiple methodologies, and the resulting allowance is not determined based on one specific methodology taking all factors into consideration. The activity in our allowance for notes receivable for each of the threesix month periods ended March 31,June 30, 2019 and 2018 is as follows:
  Six Months Ended June 30,
  2019 2018

The fair value of notes receivable is estimated by discounting expected future cash flows using current interest rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and remaining maturities. As of March 31,June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the fair value of notes receivable, net, approximated the carrying value due to contractual terms of notes receivable generally being under 24 months.

Goodwill

In conjunction with integrating our recent Digital acquisitions, the implementation of ERP systems in the Digital segment and recent management changes, during the first quarter of 2019, in our Digital business segment, we reviewed our Digital operating segment in accordance with ASC 350 to determine if additional reporting units exist based on the availability of discrete financial information that is regularly reviewed by segment management. We determined that in our Digital operating segment we now have two reporting units: (1) Digital sports and platform and (2) Digital gaming and other. The change in the Digital business segment reporting units resulted in the allocation of the previous Digital reporting unit goodwill balance as follows: $230 million to the new Digital sports and platform reporting unit and $134 million to the new Digital gaming and other reporting unit, which allocation was determined based on the relative fair value approach prescribed by ASC 350. As a result of this change we now have ten reporting units: Instant Products, U.S. Lottery Systems, International Lottery Systems, SG Gaming, legacy U.K. Gaming, Casino Management Systems, Table Products, Social Gaming,SciPlay, Digital Sportssports and Platformplatform and Digital Gaminggaming and Other.other.

2026 Unsecured Notes


On March 19, 2019, SGI issued $1,100 million in aggregate principal amount of its new 2026 Unsecured Notes at an issue price of 100.000% in a private offering. We used the net proceeds of the 2026 Unsecured Notes offering to redeem $1,000 million of our outstanding 2022 Unsecured Notes and pay accrued and unpaid interest thereon plus related premiums, fees, and costs, which redemption was completed on April 4, 2019, and paypaid related fees and expenses of the 2026 Unsecured Notes offering. The redemption of the 2022 Unsecured Notes will result in an approximate $60 million loss on debt financing transactions during the second quarter of 2019.
The 2026 Unsecured Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture dated as of March 19, 2019 (the “2026 Unsecured Notes Indenture”). SGI may redeem some or all of the 2026 Unsecured Notes at any time prior to March 15, 2022 at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2026 Unsecured Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any,


19


to the date of the redemption plus a “make whole” premium. SGI may redeem some or all of the 2026 Unsecured Notes at any time on or after March 15, 2022 at the prices specified in the 2026 Unsecured Notes Indenture.
The 2026 Unsecured Notes are senior unsecured obligations of SGI, rank equally to all SGI’s existing and future senior debt and rank senior to all of SGI’s existing and future senior subordinated debt. The 2026 Unsecured Notes are guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by SGC and all of its wholly owned U.S. subsidiaries (other than SGI, the unrestricted social gaming business entities comprising our SciPlay business segment and certain immaterial subsidiaries). The 2026 Unsecured Notes are structurally subordinated to all of the liabilities of our non-guarantor subsidiaries.
In connection with the 2026 Unsecured Notes offering, we reflected $16 million in financing costs presented primarily as a reduction to long-term debt.
SciPlay Revolver
SciPlay Holding, a subsidiary of SciPlay, entered into the SciPlay Revolver, a $150 million revolving credit agreement that matures in May 2024, by and among SciPlay Holding, as the borrower, SciPlay Parent LLC, as a guarantor, the subsidiary guarantors party thereto (which are all domestic entities that comprise our SciPlay business segment), the lenders party thereto


21


and Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent and collateral agent. The interest rate is either Adjusted LIBOR (as defined in the SciPlay Revolver) plus 2.250% (with one 0.250% leverage-based step-down to the margin and one 0.250% leverage-based step-up to the margin) or ABR (as defined in the SciPlay Revolver) plus 1.250% (with one 0.250% leverage-based step-down to the margin and one 0.250% leverage-based step-up to the margin) at the option of SciPlay Holding. SciPlay Holding is required to pay to the lenders a commitment fee of 0.500% per annum on the average daily unused portion of the revolving commitments through maturity, which fee varies based on the total net leverage ratio and is subject to a floor of 0.375%. The SciPlay Revolver provides for up to $15 million in letter of credit issuances, which requires customary issuance and administration fees, and a fronting fee of 0.125%.
The SciPlay Revolver contains covenants that, among other things, restricts SciPlay’s ability to incur additional indebtedness; incur liens; sell, transfer or dispose of property and assets; invest; make dividends or distributions or other restricted payments; and engage in affiliate transactions, with the exception of certain payments under the TRA and payments in respect of certain tax distributions and intercompany services under the SciPlay Parent LLC Operating Agreement.

In addition, the SciPlay Revolver requires that SciPlay maintain a maximum total net leverage ratio not to exceed 2.50:1.00 and maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of no less than 4.00:1.00. The SciPlay Revolver is secured by a (i) first priority pledge of the equity securities of SciPlay Holding, SciPlay Parent LLC’s restricted subsidiaries and each subsidiary guarantor party thereto and (ii) first priority security interests in, and mortgages on, substantially all tangible and intangible personal property and material fee-owned real property of SciPlay Parent LLC, SciPlay Holding and each subsidiary guarantor party thereto, in each case, subject to customary exceptions.

(1) Fair value of our fixed rate and variable interest rate debt is classified within level 2 in the fair value hierarchy and has been calculated based on the quoted market prices of our securities.
(2) Includes cross-currency interest rate swap agreements that we entered into in 2018 in the amount of $460 million U.S. Dollar-denominated 2025 Secured Notes to a fixed-rate Euro-denominated debt, with a fixed annual weighted average interest rate of approximately 2.946% (see Note 16 in our 2018 10-K).
(3) We designated a portion of our 2026 Secured Euro Notes as a net investment non-derivative hedge of our investments in certain of our international subsidiaries that use the Euro as their functional currency in order to reduce the volatility in our operating results caused by the change in foreign currency exchange rates of the Euro relative to the U.S. Dollar (see Note 12 for additional information). The total change in the face value of the 2026 Secured Euro Notes and 2026 Unsecured Euro Notes due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates since the issuance was a reduction of $63$58 million, of which a $5$3 million loss and a $2 million gain waswere recognized on remeasurement of debt in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss for the three and six months ended March 31, 2019.June 30, 2019, respectively.

(12) Fair Value Measurements
The fair value of our financial assets and liabilities is determined by reference to market data and other valuation techniques as appropriate. We believe the fair value of our financial instruments, which are principally cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, other current assets, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, approximates their recorded values. Our assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are described below.
Derivative Financial Instruments

We record derivative financial instruments on the balance sheet at their respective fair values. As of March 31,June 30, 2019, we held the following derivative instruments that were accounted for pursuant to ASC 815:

Interest Rate Swap Contracts

We currently use interest rate swap contracts as described below to mitigate gains or losses associated with the change in expected cash flows due to fluctuations in interest rates on our variable rate debt.
In February 2018, we entered into interest rate swap contracts to hedge a portion of our interest expense associated with our variable rate debt to effectively fix the interest rate that we pay. These interest rate swap contracts are designated as cash flow hedges under ASC 815. We pay interest at a weighted-average fixed rate of 2.4418% and receive interest at a variable rate equal to one-month LIBOR. The total notional amount of interest rate swaps outstanding was $800 million as of March 31,June 30, 2019. These hedges mature in February 2022.
These hedges are highly effective in offsetting changes in our future expected cash flows due to the fluctuation in the one-month LIBOR rate associated with our variable rate debt. We qualitatively monitor the effectiveness of these hedges on a quarterly basis. As a result of the effective matching of the critical terms on our variable rate interest expense being hedged to the hedging instruments being used, we expect these hedges to remain highly effective.
All gains and losses from these hedges are recorded in Other comprehensive income (loss) until the future underlying payment transactions occur. Any realized gains or losses resulting from the hedges are recognized (together with the hedged transaction) as interest expense. We estimate the fair value of our interest rate swap contracts by discounting the future cash


23


flows of both the fixed rate and variable rate interest payments based on market yield curves. The inputs used to measure the fair value of our interest rate swap contracts are categorized as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy as established by ASC 820.
The following table shows the gains (loss) and interest expense recognized on our interest rate swap contracts:

Cross-Currency Interest Rate Swaps
In connection with the February 2018 Refinancing described in Note 16 of our 2018 10-K, we entered into certain cross-currency interest rate swap agreements to achieve more beneficial interest rates by effectively converting $460 million of our fixed-rate U.S. Dollar-denominated 2025 Secured Notes, including the semi-annual interest payments through October 2023, to fixed-rate Euro-denominated debt, with a fixed annual weighted average interest rate of approximately 2.946%. We have designated these cross-currency interest rate swap agreements as a net investment hedge of our investments in certain of our international subsidiaries that use the Euro as their functional currency in order to reduce the volatility in our operating results caused by the changes in foreign currency exchange rates of the Euro relative to the U.S. Dollar.
We use the spot method to measure the effectiveness of our net investment hedge. Under this method, for each reporting period, the change in the fair value of the $460 million cross-currency interest rate swaps is reported in foreign currency translation gain (loss) in Accumulated other comprehensive loss.income (loss). The cross-currency basis spread (along with other components of the cross-currency swap’s fair value excluded from the spot method effectiveness assessment) are amortized and recorded to interest expense. We evaluate the effectiveness of our net investment hedge at the beginning of each quarter.

The following table shows the fair value of our hedges:

Net Investment Non-derivative Hedge - 2026 Secured Euro Notes
For the first quarter of 2019, we

We designated $255$270 million of our 2026 Secured Euro Notes as a net investment non-derivative hedge of our investments in certain of our international subsidiaries that use the Euro as their functional currency in order to reduce the volatility in our results caused by the changes in foreign currency exchange rates of the Euro relative to the U.S. Dollar.
We use the spot method to measure the effectiveness of our net investment non-derivative hedge. Under this method, for each reporting period, the change in the hedged portion of the carrying value of the 2026 Secured Euro Notes due to remeasurement is reported in Foreign currency translation gain (loss) in Other comprehensive income,loss, and the remaining

We evaluate the effectiveness of our net investment non-derivative hedge at the beginning of each quarter, and the inputs used to measure the fair value of this non-derivative hedge are categorized as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.
Contingent Consideration Liabilities

In connection with our 2017 acquisitions, we have recorded certain contingent consideration liabilities, of which the values are primarily based on reaching certain earnings-based metrics, with a maximum payout of up to $39 million.metrics. The related liabilities were recorded at fair value on the acquisition date as part of the consideration transferred and are remeasured each reporting period. The inputs used to measure the fair value of our liabilities are categorized as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.

Contingent consideration liabilities as of March 31,June 30, 2019 andare $22 million of which $10 million is included in Accrued liabilities with the remainder included in Other long-term liabilities. Contingent consideration liabilities as of December 31, 2018 were $45 million of which $22 million as of March 31, 2019 iswas included in Accrued liabilities with the remaining balanceremainder included in Other long-term liabilities.

We did not have assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis as of March 31, 2019.June 30, 2019 other than disclosed in Note 7.

SciPlay Stock Based Compensation
During the second quarter of 2019, SciPlay adopted the SciPlay Long-Term Incentive Plan (“SciPlay LTIP”). The SciPlay LTIP authorizes the issuance of up to 6.5 million shares of SciPlay’s Class A common stock to be granted in connection with awards of incentive and nonqualified stock options, restricted stock and stock units, stock appreciation rights and performance-based awards. As of June 30, 2019, there were 3.4 million of total time-based and performance-based SciPlay restricted stock units issued with an average grant price of $16.00 per share.

(14) Income Taxes
We consider new evidence (both positive and negative) at each reporting date that could affect our view of the future realization of deferred tax assets. Based upon the evaluation of all available evidence, and considering the projected U.S. pre-


23




taxpre-tax losses for 2019, we maintain a valuation allowance for certain of our U.S. operations as of March 31,June 30, 2019. We maintained other valuation allowances for certain non-U.S. jurisdictions with cumulative losses.


The effective income tax rates for the three and six months ended March 31,June 30, 2019 were (10)% and 2018 were (18%)(13)%, respectively, and 0% and (3%), for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, and were determined using an estimated annual effective tax rate after considering any discrete items for such periods. Due to the aforementioned valuation allowance against ourcertain U.S. net deferred tax assets, the effective tax rates for the three and six months ended March 31,June 30, 2019 and 2018 do not include the benefits of the U.S. tax losses, and we recorded an overall tax expense in both periods due to foreign pre-tax earnings. The change in the effective tax rates relates primarily to the overall mix of income in our foreign jurisdictions.


(15) Leases
On January 1, 2019, we adopted ASC 842 using the optional transition method provided by ASU 2018-11. Our operating leases primarily consist of real estate leases such as offices, warehouses, and research and development facilities. Our leases have remaining lease terms ranging from 1 year to 11 years, some of which include options to extend the leases for up to 5 years or to terminate the leases within 1 year. Our finance leases are immaterial.



26





Our total operating lease expenses for the three and six months ended March 31,June 30, 2019 and 2018 were $9$10 million and $7$19 million, respectively, and were $8 million and $15 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively. The total amount of variable and short term lease payments incurred during the three months ended March 31, 2019 are immaterial.were immaterial for all periods presented.

(16) Litigation
We are involved in various routine and other specific legal proceedings, including the following which are described in Note 22 within our 2018 10-K: Colombia litigation, SNAI litigation, Washington State Matter, and the Raqqa Matter. There have been no material changes to these matters since the 2018 10-K was filed with the SEC, except as described below.
We record an accrual for legal contingencies when it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount or range of the loss can be reasonably estimated (although, as discussed below, there may be an exposure to loss in excess of the accrued liability). We evaluate our accruals for legal contingencies at least quarterly and, as appropriate, establish new accruals or adjust existing accruals to reflect (1) the facts and circumstances known to us at the time, including information regarding negotiations, settlements, rulings and other relevant events and developments, (2) the advice and analyses of counsel and (3) the assumptions and judgment of management. Legal costs associated with our legal proceedings are expensed as incurred. We had accrued liabilities of $3 million and $4 million for all of our legal matters that were contingencies as of March 31,June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018.


24


2018, respectively.
Substantially all of our legal contingencies are subject to significant uncertainties and, therefore, determining the likelihood of a loss and/or the measurement of any loss involves a series of complex judgments about future events. Consequently, the ultimate outcomes of our legal contingencies could result in losses in excess of amounts we have accrued. We may be unable to estimate a range of possible losses for some matters pending against us or our subsidiaries, even when the amount of damages claimed against us or our subsidiaries is stated because, among other things: (1) the claimed amount may be exaggerated or unsupported; (2) the claim may be based on a novel legal theory or involve a large number of parties; (3) there may be uncertainty as to the likelihood of a class being certified or the ultimate size of the class; (4) there may be uncertainty as to the outcome of pending appeals or motions; (5) the matter may not have progressed sufficiently through discovery or there may be significant factual or legal issues to be resolved or developed; and/or (6) there may be uncertainty as to the enforceability of legal judgments and outcomes in certain jurisdictions. Other matters have progressed sufficiently that we are able to estimate a range of possible loss. For those legal contingencies disclosed in Note 22 in our 2018 10-K and this Note 16 as well as those related to the previously disclosed settlement agreement entered into in February 2015 with SNAI S.p.a., as to which a loss is reasonably possible, whether in excess of a related accrued liability or where there is no accrued liability, and for which we are able to estimate a range of possible loss, the current estimated range is up to approximately $14 million in


27


excess of the accrued liabilities (if any) related to those legal contingencies. This aggregate range represents management’s estimate of additional possible loss in excess of the accrued liabilities (if any) with respect to these matters based on currently available information, including any damages claimed by the plaintiffs, and is subject to significant judgment and a variety of assumptions and inherent uncertainties. For example, at the time of making an estimate, management may have only preliminary, incomplete, or inaccurate information about the facts underlying a claim; its assumptions about the future rulings of the court or other tribunal on significant issues, or the behavior and incentives of adverse parties, regulators, indemnitors or co‑defendants, may prove to be wrong; and the outcomes it is attempting to predict are often not amenable to the use of statistical or other quantitative analytical tools. In addition, from time to time an outcome may occur that management had not accounted for in its estimate because it had considered that outcome to be remote. Furthermore, as noted above, the aggregate range does not include any matters for which we are not able to estimate a range of possible loss. Accordingly, the estimated aggregate range of possible loss does not represent our maximum loss exposure. Any such losses could have a material adverse impact on our results of operations, cash flows or financial condition. The legal proceedings underlying the estimated range will change from time to time, and actual results may vary significantly from the current estimate.
TCS John Huxley Matter
On March 15, 2019, TCS John Huxley America, Inc., TCS John Huxley Europe Ltd., TCS John Huxley Asia Ltd., and Taiwan Fulgent Enterprise Co., Ltd. brought a civil action in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois against SGC, Bally Technologies, Inc. and Bally Gaming, Inc. In the complaint, the plaintiffs assert federal antitrust claims arising from defendants'the defendants’ procurement of particular U.S. and South African patents. PlaintiffsThe plaintiffs allege that the defendants used those patents to create an allegedly illegal monopoly in the market for automatic card shufflers sold to regulated casinos in the United States. On April 10, 2019, the defendants filed a motion to dismiss the plaintiffs’ complaint with prejudice. On April 25, 2019, the district court denied the defendants’ motion to dismiss without prejudice pursuant to the court’s local rules, after the plaintiffs advised that they intended to file an amended complaint. PlaintiffsThe plaintiffs filed their amended complaint on May 3, 2019, and on May 22, 2019, the defendants filed a motion to dismiss the plaintiffs’ amended complaint with prejudice, which has not yet been ruled upon by the district court has set a status hearing for May 8, 2019 to discuss the matter further. Due to the early nature of this litigation, wecourt. We are currently unable to determine the likelihood of an outcome or estimate a range of reasonably possible loss.
For additional information regarding our pending litigation matters, see Note 22 in our 2018 10-K.


(17) Financial Information for Guarantor Subsidiaries and Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries

As of March 31,June 30, 2019, SGI’s obligations under the Secured Notes (other than the 2022 Secured Notes, which were redeemed in March 2018), the Unsecured Notes and the Subordinated Notes were fully and unconditionally and jointly and severally guaranteed by SGC and the Guarantor Subsidiaries other than SGI, and certain immaterial subsidiaries of SGC. The guarantees of our Secured Notes (other than the 2022 Secured Notes, which were redeemed in March 2018), Unsecured Notes and Subordinated Notes will terminate under the following customary circumstances: (1) the sale or disposition of the capital stock of the guarantor (including by consolidation or merger of the guarantor into another person); (2) the liquidation or dissolution of the guarantor; (3) the defeasance or satisfaction and discharge of the notes; (4) the release of the guarantor from any guarantees of indebtedness of SGC and SGI; and (5) the proper designation of the guarantor as an unrestricted subsidiary pursuant to the indenture governing the respective notes.
Presented below is condensed consolidating financial information for (1) SGC, (2) SGI, (3) the Guarantor Subsidiaries and (4) the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries as of March 31,June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 and for the three and six months ended March 31,June 30, 2019 and 2018. The condensed consolidating financial information has been presented to show the nature of assets held, results of operations and cash flows of SGC, SGI, the Guarantor Subsidiaries and the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries assuming the current guarantee structures of the Secured Notes (other than the 2022 Secured Notes, which were redeemed in March 2018), the Unsecured Notes and the Subordinated Notes were in effect at the beginning of the periods presented.

     The condensed consolidating financial information reflects the investments of SGC in SGI and in the Guarantor Subsidiaries and Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries using the equity method of accounting. They also reflect the investments of the Guarantor Subsidiaries in the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries. Net changes in intercompany due from/due to accounts are reported in the accompanying Supplemental Condensed Consolidating Statements of Cash Flows as investing activities if the applicable entities have a net investment (asset) in intercompany accounts and as a financing activity if the applicable entities have a net intercompany borrowing (liability) balance.

This “Management's“Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” (“MD&A”) contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and should be read in conjunction with the disclosures and information contained and referenced under “Forward-Looking Statements” and “Risk Factors” included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and “Risk Factors” included in our 2018 10-K. As used in this MD&A, the terms “we,” “us,” “our” and the “Company” mean Scientific Games Corporation together with its consolidated subsidiaries.


BUSINESS OVERVIEW
We are a leading developer of technology-based products and services and associated content for the worldwide gaming, lottery, social and digital gaming industries. Our portfolio of revenue-generating activities primarily includes supplying gaming machines and game content, casino-management systems and table game products and services to licensed gaming entities; providing instant and draw-based lottery products, lottery systems and lottery content and services to lottery operators; providing social casino solutions to retail consumers; and providing a comprehensive suite of digital RMG and sports wagering solutions, distribution platforms, content, products and services.
Recent Events
On March 19,April 4, 2019, we completed a private offering of $1,100 million of the 2026 Unsecured Notes. We used the net proceeds of the 2026 Unsecured Notes offering to redeemredeemed $1,000 million of our outstanding 2022 Unsecured Notes which redemption was completed on April 4, 2019. Thewith a portion of the proceeds from the issuance of 2026 Unsecured Notes offering allowed us to extend the maturity of $1,000 million of our debt from 2022 to 2026 and reduce expected future cash paid for interest.Notes.
On May 7, 2019, weSciPlay completed an initial public offering of a 17.4%IPO for an 18.0% minority interest in our Social gaming business segment, after giving effect to the “SciPlay IPO”, which we believe will provide greater flexibility to pursue additional growth initiatives specifically designed for our Social gaming business. SGC received $301 million in proceeds from the offering, which enables us to make substantial payments to reduce our debt.underwriters’ partial exercise of their over-allotment option on June 4, 2019 (see Note 1).
We believe the IPO will provide greater flexibility to pursue additional growth initiatives specifically designed for SciPlay. We received $312 million in net proceeds from the offering (net of $30 million used by SciPlay to pay the Offering fees and balance retained for general corporate purposes) which enables us to make substantial payments to reduce our debt.
Segments
We report our operations in four business segments - Gaming, Lottery, SocialSciPlay and Digital -representing our different products and services. As a result of the SciPlay IPO and starting with the first quarter of 2019, we changed the calculation of SocialSciPlay business segment AEBITDA, which now reflects corporate services obtained under an intercompany services agreement and certain royalties paid by the SocialSciPlay business segment to other segments or to Corporate under an intercompany intellectual property license agreement. Business segment information for the three and six months ended March 31,June 30, 2018 has been recast to reflect these changes.  See "Business Segments Results" below and Note 3 for additional business segment information.
Foreign Exchange
Our results are impacted by changes in foreign currency exchange rates used in the translation of foreign functional currencies into USD and the remeasurement of foreign currency transactions or balances. The impact of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations represents the difference between current rates and prior-period rates applied to current activity. Our exposure to foreign currency volatility on revenue is as follows:

American casinos, wide-area gaming operators such as licensed betting offices, (“LBOs”), arcade and bingo operators in the U.K. and continental Europe, and government agencies and their affiliated operators.
We generate Gaming revenue from both services and product sales. Our services revenue includes revenue earned from Participation gaming machines, other leased gaming machines (including VLTs and electronic table games), supplied table products and services (including Shufflers), casino management technology solutions and systems, and other services revenues. Our product sales revenue includes the sale of new and used gaming machines, electronic table games, VLTs and VGTs, casino-management technology solutions and systems, table products, PTG licensing, conversion kits (including game, hardware or operating system conversions) and spare parts. For additional information, refer to the Gaming primary business activities summary included within “Business Segment Results” under Item 7 of our 2018 10-K.


Current Year Update


We expect to continue to face pricing pressure in our Gaming business segment. We anticipate that replacement demand for gaming machines and constraints on capital spending by gaming operators will continue at current levels. We anticipate that demand for our gaming systems products and services will remain at a constant levelcontinue to decline due to several Canadian systems contracts and related new systems implementations anticipated to continue throughout 2019; however, timing can fluctuate based on timing of installations of the systems.nearing their completion. We believe we have begun to stabilize the erosion in the installed base of our Participation gaming machines. During the first quarter of 2019, we deployed the Twinstar® Wave XL as an addition to our Gaming Operations platform.

Gaming Systems
Gaming systems revenue decreased for both comparable periods primarily due to decreased sales coupled with fewer installations of new systems to casinos as a result of fewer casino openings and expansions and certain Canadian contracts that are nearing completion of systems launches.
Operating Expenses
OperatingThe decrease in operating expenses decreasedfor both comparable periods is primarily due to a $15 million decrease inlower cost of revenue correlated with the decrease in revenue, lower unit shipments coupled withSG&A and R&D expenses as a $27 million reduction inresult of more efficient business operations, lower D&A as a result of certain Gaming segment acquired intangible assets becoming fully depreciated during the first quarter of 2018 and $10 million in a $19 millionhigher impairment charge related to assets held for sale impairment charge recorded duringin the first quarter of 2018.prior year comparable periods.
AEBITDA
The decrease in AEBITDA decreased primarily as a result offor both comparable periods is due to lower revenue while and a reduction of intellectual property royalties paid by the SciPlay business segment, which ended as of May 7, 2019 in connection with the IP License Agreement described in Note 1.
AEBITDA as a percentage of revenue (“AEBITDA margin”) for the six-month comparable period increased by 21 percentage points as a result of a more profitable business mix and improved operating leverage.point while the three-month comparable period AEBITDA margin was flat.


LOTTERY


Our Lottery business segment is primarily comprised of our instant products business and our systems-based services and product sales business. Our instant products business generates revenue from the manufacture and sale of instant products, as well as the provision of value-added services such as game design, sales and marketing support, specialty games and promotions, inventory management, warehousing, fulfillment services, as well as full instant product category management. In addition, we provide licensed games, promotional entertainment and internet-based marketing services to the lottery industry. These revenues are presented as instant products revenue.
Our systems-based services and product sales business provides customized computer software, software support, equipment and data communication services, and keno to lotteries. In the U.S., we typically provide the necessary point-of-sale


41


terminals and equipment, software and maintenance services on a Participation basis under long-term contracts that typically have an initial term of at least five years. Internationally, we typically sell our point of salepoint-of-sale terminals and/or computer software to lottery authorities and may provide ongoing fee-based systems maintenance and software support services. Refer to the Lottery primary business activities summary included within “Business Segment Results” under Item 7 of our 2018 10-K.
Current Year Update
We believe we will continue to face intense price-based competition in our Lottery business in 2019. In the near term, we also expect to see an increase in the number of jurisdictions that seek to privatize or outsource lottery operations and to face strong competition from both traditional and new competitors with respect to these opportunities. In addition, we anticipate that lottery RFPs, specifically those for private management agreements and certain of our international customers, could increasingly include terms that expose us to increased risk, such as requiring the guarantee of specific income thresholds or significant upfront payments. 


On March 4, 2019, we won a 10-year sports betting joint-venture contract to be the primary supplier and service provider to Turkey, Europe’s largest state-sponsored sports betting market and among the top three in the world in sales.

increase. Web platform and other revenue decreased for both comparable periods due to a decline in player levels as a result of player preferences causing a continued migration to mobile platformsplatforms.
Operating Expenses
Operating expenses decreasedincreased for both comparable periods primarily due to lower contingent consideration remeasurement charges recorded in 2019 ($18 million was recorded in the first quarter of 2018), partially offset by higher cost of revenue correlated with the revenue growth, coupled with higher marketing and player acquisition costs to support ongoing growth initiatives.
AEBITDA
AEBITDA increased for both comparable periods primarily due to continued growth in revenue partially offset by higher cost of revenue and SG&A as described above. Additionally, for both comparable periods, the AEBITDA increases reflect a $3 million savings from termination of the intellectual property royalty payments to the Gaming business segment as of May 7, 2019, in connection with the IP License Agreement (See Note 1). As a result of these factors, AEBITDA margin declinedfor the three- and six-month comparable periods improved by 25 percentage points primarily due to higher marketing and player acquisition costs described above.1 percentage points, respectively.

Operating Expenses and AEBITDA
The increase in operating expenses for both comparable periods is due to higher cost of revenue from third-party platforms coupled with higher D&A from platforms and enhancements developed in 2018.prior year periods. AEBITDA and AEBITDA margin decreased primarilyfor both comparable periods due to a less favorable revenue mix and the prior year six-month comparable period AEBITDA including the sale of certain intellectual property.

AEBITDA margin for the three- and six-month comparable periods declined by 2 percentage points and by 4 percentage points, respectively.

LIQUIDITY, CAPITAL RESOURCES AND WORKING CAPITAL
Sources of Liquidity
As of March 31,June 30, 2019, our principal sources of liquidity, other than cash flows provided by operating activities were cash and cash equivalents and amounts available under our revolving credit facility and the SciPlay Revolver (for our SciPlay business segment) discussed below under “Credit Agreement and Other Debt.”
On March 19,April 4, 2019, we completed a private offering of $1,100 million of the 2026 Unsecured Notes at an issue price of 100.000%. We used the net proceeds of the 2026 Unsecured Notes offering to redeemredeemed $1,000 million of our outstanding 2022 Unsecured Notes and paypaid accrued and unpaid interest thereon plus any related premiums, fees and costs, which redemption was completed on April 4, 2019, and pay related fees and expenses of the 2026 Unsecured Notes offering.costs.

The amount of our available cash and cash equivalents fluctuates principally based on borrowings or repayments under our credit facilities, investments, acquisitions and changes in our working capital position. The amount of our cash and cash equivalents as of March 31, 2019 includes $1,084 million of cash that was used to complete the redemption of $1,000 million of 2022 Unsecured Notes and pay accrued and unpaid interest thereon plus any related premiums, fees and costs on April 4, 2019. Thetotal borrowing capacity under our revolving credit facility will depend on the amount of outstanding borrowings and letters of credit issued and on us remaining in compliance with the covenants under ourthe credit agreement,facility, including a maintenance covenant based on consolidated net first lien leverage. The total borrowing capacity under the SciPlay Revolver will depend on the amount of outstanding borrowings and letters of credit issued and remaining in compliance with the covenants under the SciPlay Revolver, including maintenance covenants based on total net leverage and fixed charge coverage beginning in the third quarter of 2019. We were in compliance with the covenants under all of our credit agreementagreements as of March 31,June 30, 2019.
We believe that our cash flow from operations, available cash and cash equivalents and available borrowing capacity under our existing financing arrangements will be sufficient to meet our liquidity needs for the foreseeable future; however, we cannot assure that this will be the case. We believe that substantially all cash held outside the U.S. is free from legal encumbrances or similar restrictions that would prevent it from being available to meet our global liquidity needs.
Total cash held by our foreign subsidiaries was $87$99 million and $92 million as of March 31,June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.
Our Gaming operations and Lottery systems businesses generally require significant upfront capital expenditures, and we may need to incur additional capital expenditures in order to retain or win new contracts. Our ability to make payments on and to refinance our indebtedness and other obligations depends on our ability to generate cash in the future. We may also, from time to time, repurchase or otherwise retire or refinance our debt, through our subsidiaries or otherwise. In the event we pursue significant acquisitions or other expansion opportunities, we may need to raise additional capital. If we do not have adequate liquidity to support these activities, we may be unable to obtain financing for these cash needs on favorable terms or at all. For additional information regarding our cash needs and related risks, see Item 1A “Risk Factors” in our 2018 10-K.   
In addition, Lottery customers in the U.S. generally require service providers to provide performance bonds in connection with the relevant contract. As of March 31,June 30, 2019 our outstanding performance bonds totaled $237$230 million. Our


42


ability to obtain performance bonds on commercially reasonable terms is subject to our financial condition and to prevailing market conditions, which may be impacted by economic and political events. Although we have not experienced difficulty in obtaining such bonds to date, we cannot assure that we will continue to be able to obtain performance bonds on commercially reasonable terms, or at all. For additional information regarding our surety or performance bonds in connection with our contracts, see Item 1A “Risk Factors” in our 2018 10-K.


As described in Note 1, on May 7, 2019, our subsidiary SciPlay Corporation (“SciPlay”) completed an initial public offering of a 17.4%IPO for an 18.0% minority interest in our Social gaming business. SGCWe received $301$342 million in proceeds from the offering, ($30 million of which enableswas used by SciPlay to pay the Offering fees and balance retained for general corporate purposes). These proceeds will enable us to make substantial payments to reduce our debt. During the second quarter of 2019, we paid down $145 million of our revolving credit facility. We currently do not expect the Social gaming businessSciPlay to declare or pay any cash dividends, other than tax distributions and certain cash distributions related to the impact of taxes pursuant to a tax receivable agreement.the TRA. If the Social gaming businessSciPlay discontinues the payment of, or is unable to pay, such distributions to us, this will reduce our available liquidity. Furthermore, the terms of indebtedness incurred by the Social gaming businessSciPlay may, and the terms of the SciPlay Revolver will, limit the ability of the Social gaming businessSciPlay to pay dividends or make other distributions to us, or to amend the agreements between the Social gaming businessSciPlay and us and our other subsidiaries. In 2018, the amount of dividends declared and paid by the Social gaming businessSciPlay to Bally Gaming, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of SGC, was $77 million. No such dividends have been declared or paid by our Social gaming business during the first quarter of 2019.


The consummation of the offeringIPO resulted in a 17.4%an 18.0% reduction of our economic interest in the Social gaming business,SciPlay, and as a result, we will only benefit from a portion of any profits and growth of that business, and from a portion of any dividends and other distributions from that business.

Net cash provided by operating activities compared to the prior year period increased primarily due to favorable changes in working capital accounts coupled with a lower net loss. The changes in our working capital accounts for the threesix months ended March 31,June 30, 2019 were primarily driven by a $66 million favorable change in interest payable, which wastiming of accounts and notes receivable collections and billing, partially offset by changesan increase in other working capital accounts, primarily accounts receivableinventory balances due to the timing of orders and accounts payable.shipments. The six months ended June 30, 2019 also include approximately $20 million outflow related to payments on contingent consideration liabilities.
Cash flows from investing activities
Net cash used in investing activities decreased primarily due to 2018 business acquisitions in prior year periods and second pro-rata concession funding payment to LNS of $74 million with no comparable activities in 2019 coupled with lower capital expenditures. Capital expenditures are composed of investments in systems, equipment and other assets related to contracts, property and equipment, intangible assets and software.
Cash flows from financing activities


43


Net cash provided by financing activities increased primarily due to SciPlay IPO net proceeds of $342 million in the private offering of $1,100 million of 2026 Unsecured Notes during the firstsecond quarter of 2019, lower debt issuance and deferred financing and offering costs, and lower revolving credit facility payments.partially offset by higher net payments of long-term debt.
Credit Agreement and Other Debt
For additional information regarding our credit agreement and other debt, interest rate risk and interest rate hedging instruments, see Notes 1, 16 and 17 and Item 7A “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” in our 2018 10-K, as well asand Note 11 and Note 12 in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of March 31,June 30, 2019, we did not have any significant off-balance sheet arrangements.
Contractual Obligations
Other than: (i) the private offering of $1,100 million of 2026 Unsecured Notes described inand redemption of $1,000 million of our outstanding 2022 Unsecured Notes (see Note 11,11) and (ii) a $24 million payment on contingent consideration liabilities, there have been no material changes to our contractual obligations disclosed under Item 7 “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Liquidity, Capital Resources and Working Capital Contractual Obligations” in our 2018 10-K.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Market risk is the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices, such as interest rates, foreign exchange rates and commodity prices. The following are our primary exposures to market risks:



47





Interest Rate Risk    


As of March 31,June 30, 2019, the face value of long term debt was $10,120$8,968 million, including $4,323$4,167 million of variable-rate obligations. Assuming a constant outstanding balance for our variable-rate long term debt, a hypothetical 1% change in interest rates would decrease/increase interest expense by approximately $43$42 million. All of our interest rate sensitive financial instruments are held for purposes other than trading purposes.
    
We have attempted to limit our exposure to interest rate risk by using interest rate swap contracts to mitigate interest rate risk associated with a portion of our variable rate debt instruments. The objective of our interest rate swap contracts, which are designated as cash flow hedges of the future interest payments, is to eliminate the variability of cash flows attributable to the LIBOR component of interest expense to be paid on a portion of our variable rate debt.


Cross-Currency Interest Rate Swaps


In connection with the February 2018 Refinancing (see Note 16 in our 2018 Form 10-K), we entered into certain cross-currency interest rate swap agreements to achieve more attractive interest rates by effectively converting $460 million of our fixed-rate U.S. Dollar-denominated 2025 Secured Notes, including the semi-annual interest payments through October 2023, to a fixed-rate Euro-denominated debt, with a fixed annual weighted interest rate of approximately 2.946%. We have designated these cross-currency interest rate swap agreements as a net investment hedge of our investments in certain of our international subsidiaries that use the Euro as their functional currency in order to reduce the volatility in our operating results caused by the changes in foreign currency exchange rates of the Euro with respect to the U.S. Dollar.
    
As of March 31,June 30, 2019, if these cross-currency interest rate swap agreements were ineffective, the fluctuations in the exchange rates between the Euro and the U.S. Dollar would impact the amount of U.S. Dollars that we would require to settle the Euro-denominated debt at maturity of these agreements. A hypothetical 10% change in the U.S. Dollar in comparison to the Euro exchange rate upon inception of the cross-currency interest rate swap would have increased/decreased our obligation to cash settle the exchanged principal portion in U.S. Dollars by approximately $46 million.


Net Investment Non-derivative Hedge - 2026 Secured Euro Notes
In February 2018, we designated a portion of our 2026 Secured Euro Notes as a net investment non-derivative hedge of our investments in certain of our international subsidiaries that use the Euro as their functional currency in order to reduce the volatility in our operating results caused by the changes in foreign currency exchange rates of the Euro with respect to the U.S. Dollar.
    
Fluctuations in the exchange rates between the Euro and the U.S. Dollar will impact the amount of U.S. Dollars that we will require to settle the 2026 Secured Euro Notes and 2026 Unsecured Euro Notes at maturity. A hypothetical 10% change in U.S. Dollar in comparison to the Euro as of March 31,June 30, 2019, would have increased/decreased our obligation to cash settle the principal portion of the 2026 Secured and Unsecured Euro Notes in U.S. Dollars by approximately $65$66 million.


For additional information regarding interest rate swap contracts, cross-currency interest rate swaps and net investment non-derivative hedges see Note 12.


Item 4. Controls and Procedures
