FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
        Throughout this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we make “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:

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 casino gaming and how such opposition could lead these jurisdictions to adopt legislation or impose a regulatory framework to govern interactive social gaming or social casino gaming specifically, and how this could result in a prohibition on interactive social gaming or social casino gaming 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;

        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 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.

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, its wholly owned subsidiaries, 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 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, comprehensive (loss) incomeloss 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 2019 10-K. Interim results of operations are not necessarily indicative of results of operations to be expected for a full year.
Impact of COVID-19
In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the rapidly spreading COVID-19 outbreak a pandemic. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, governments across the world implemented a number of measures to prevent its spread, including but not limited to, the temporary closure of a substantial number of gaming operations establishments and disruptions to lottery operations, travel restrictions, and cancellation of sporting events, which are affecting our business segments in a number of ways. These disruptionsDuring the latter part of the second quarter of 2020, lifting of restrictions began, including reopening of some of the gaming establishments globally. As gaming operations begin to our business segments as a result of COVID-19 have hadresume, social distancing measures, decreased operating capacities, high unemployment rates, and potential changes in consumer behaviors are expected to continue to have an adversenegatively impact on our results of operations, cash flows and financial condition.

condition as they did in the first quarter of 2020.
Based on our current estimates regarding the magnitude and length of the disruptions to our business, we do not anticipate these disruptions will impact our ability to meet our obligations when due or our ability to maintain compliance with our debt covenants for at least the next 12 months. However, the ultimate magnitude and length of time that the disruptions from COVID-19 will continue is highly uncertain. This uncertainty will require us to continually assess the situation, including the impact of changes to government imposed restrictions, marketchanges in customer behaviors, social distancing measures and decreased gaming establishments operating capacity jurisdiction by market.jurisdiction. Accordingly, our estimates regarding the magnitude and length of time that these disruptions will continue to impact our results of operations, cash flows and financial condition may change in the future and such changes could be material.

As of March 31, 2020, our total available liquidity (excluding our SciPlay business segment) was $684 million, which included $483 million of undrawn availability under SGI’s revolving credit facility. On April 9, 2020, we borrowed $480 million under SGI’s revolving credit facility, which was substantially all of theour remaining availability thereunder. As of June 30, 2020, our total available liquidity (excluding our SciPlay business segment) was $637 million, which included $3 million of undrawn availability under SGI’s revolving credit facility. We have implemented a number of measures to proactively reduce operating costs, conserve liquidity and navigate through this unprecedented situation. These include measures such as: reductions in both salaries and workforce, including temporary voluntary 50% or greater reductions in salaries by our executive leadership team (100% as to our President and Chief Executive Officer)Officeruntil June 30, 2020 and 50% from July 1, 2020 to July 31, 2020), unpaid employee furloughs, reductions in hours, temporary elimination of 401(k) matching among other compensation and benefits reductions, and deferral of certain operating and capital expenditures. We arehave also engagingengaged with our vendors to negotiate concessions on the timing and amount of payments to preserve liquidity through the COVID-19 disruption period. We continue to actively manage our daily cash flows and continue to evaluate additional measures that will reduce operating costs and conserve cash.

Our only financial maintenance covenant (excluding SciPlay’s Revolver) is contained in SGI’s credit agreement. Prior to the Credit Agreement Amendment (as defined below) dated May 8, 2020, this covenant was tested at the end of each fiscal quarter and required us to not exceed a maximum consolidated net first lien leverage ratio of 5.00x Consolidated EBITDA (as

10



defined in the credit agreement). Prior to the Credit Agreement Amendment, this ratio stepped down to 4.75x beginning with the fiscal quarter endedending December 31, 2020 and to 4.50x beginning with the fiscal quarter endedending December 31, 2021. Our consolidated net first lien leverage ratio as of March 31, 2020 was 4.38x. Additionally, the SciPlay Revolver requires that SciPlay maintain a maximum total net leverage ratio not to exceed 2.50x and maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of no less than 4.00x. We had no amounts drawn on our SciPlay Revolver as of March 31,June 30, 2020. We were in compliance with the financial covenants under all debt agreements as of March 31, 2020.

On May 8, 2020, the requisite lenders under SGI’s revolving credit facility agreed to amend the consolidated net first lien leverage ratio covenant in the credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement Amendment”) to (a) implement a financial covenant relief period through the end of the first quarter ending March 31, 2021 (the “Covenant Relief Period”), as a result of which SGI is not required to maintain compliance with the consolidated net first lien leverage ratio covenant during the Covenant Relief Period, (b) reset the consolidated net first lien leverage ratio covenant following the Covenant Relief Period, (c) impose a minimum liquidity requirement (excluding SciPlay) of at least $275 million during the Covenant Relief Period, with a potential step-down to at least $200 million for April and May 2021, (d) further restrict our ability to incur indebtedness and liens, make restricted payments and investments and prepay junior indebtedness during the Covenant Relief Period, subject to certain exceptions and further subject, in some instances, to maintaining minimum liquidity (excluding SciPlay) of at least $400 million and (e) establish a LIBOR floor of 0.500% on borrowings under the revolving credit facility during the Covenant Relief Period. The revised consolidated net first lien leverage ratio will be 6.00x Consolidated EBITDA beginning with the fiscal quarter ending June 30, 2021, stepping down as follows: (1) 5.75x beginning with the fourth quarter of 2021, (2) 5.25x beginning with the second quarter of 2022, (3) 4.75x beginning with the fourth quarter of 2022 and (4) 4.50x beginning with the second quarter of 2023 and thereafter. The revised consolidated net first lien leverage ratio will beis based on Consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the Credit Agreement Amendment) as follows: (1) for the testing period ending June 30, 2021, Consolidated EBITDA for the fiscal quarter ending June 30, 2021 multiplied by 4, (2) for the testing period ending September 30, 2021, Consolidated EBITDA for the fiscal quarters ending June 30, 2021 and September 30, 2021 multiplied by 2, (3) for the testing period ending December 31, 2021, Consolidated EBITDA for the fiscal quarters ending June 30, 2021, September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2021 multiplied by 4/3 and (4) for all subsequent testing periods, Consolidated EBITDA for the previous twelve months including the quarter for the which the test is performed.

Refer to Note 11 for description of issuance of the 2025 Unsecured Notes and the redemption of the 2021 Notes completed subsequent to June 30, 2020.
Additionally, changes to estimates related to the COVID-19 disruptions could result in other impacts, including but not limited to, additional goodwill impairments (see Note 8), indefinite-lived intangibles, long-lived asset and equity method investments impairment charges, inventory write downs and receivables credit allowance charges (see Note 5)Notes 5 and 6).

Significant Accounting Policies
        There have been no changes to our significant accounting policies described within the Notes of our 2019 10-K other than adoption of ASC 326 as described in Note 5.
Computation of Basic and Diluted Net Loss Per Share
Basic and diluted net loss attributable to SGC per share were the same for all periods presented as all common stock equivalents during those periods would be anti-dilutive. We excluded 1 million of stock options from the diluted weighted-average common shares outstanding for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2 million of stock options from the diluted weighted-average common shares outstanding for the three and six months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.June 30, 2019. We excluded 24 million of RSUs from the calculation of diluted weighted-average common shares outstanding for eachthe three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 3 million of RSUs from the calculation of diluted weighted-average common shares outstanding for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019.
Acquisitions
On June 22, 2020, SciPlay completed the acquisition of all of the three months ended March 31, 2020issued and 2019.outstanding capital stock of privately held mobile and social game company Come2Play, Ltd. (“Come2Play”), which expands SciPlay’s existing portfolio of social games. Come2Play offers Backgammon and Solitaire social games targeted towards casual game players on the same platforms in which we currently offer our existing games. The total purchase consideration was $18 million, which includes our estimate of contingent acquisition consideration. Our preliminary allocation of the purchase price resulted in $13 million intangible assets primarily allocated to customer relationship and acquired technology and $6 million in excess purchase price allocated to goodwill.
New Accounting Guidance - Recently Adopted

11



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 legacy 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 are 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. We adopted ASC 326 as of January 1, 2020 using the modified retrospective method for all financial assets measured at amortized cost, which resulted in a $6 million cumulative-effect adjustment increase to accumulated loss. See Note 5 for our credit losses policy and the adoption impact of ASC 326 on our consolidated financial statements.
The FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement, and several subsequent amendments (collectively, Topic 820) in 2018. The standard amends the required quantitative and qualitative disclosure requirements for recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements. We adopted this standard effective January 1, 2020. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on our financial statement disclosures.


11



In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Income Taxes, to simplify the accounting for income taxes. The guidance eliminates certain exceptions related to the approach for intraperiod tax allocation, the methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period, and the recognition of deferred tax liabilities for outside basis differences related to changes in ownership of equity method investments and foreign subsidiaries. The guidance also simplifies aspects of accounting for franchise taxes, enacted changes in tax laws or rates and clarifies the accounting for transactions that result in a step-up in the tax basis of goodwill. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020 and interim periods within those fiscal years with early adoption permitted. We adopted this standard effective January 1, 2020. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.
New Accounting Guidance - Not Yet Adopted

The FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04,
Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) in March 2020. The new guidance provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying U.S. GAAP to contract modifications and hedging relationships, subject to meeting certain criteria, that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued. This ASU may be applied prospectively through December 31, 2022. We are currently assessing the impact of this standard on our consolidated financial statements.
We do not expect that any additional recently issued accounting guidance will have a significant effect on our consolidated financial statements.

The timing of revenue recognition, billings and cash collections results in billed receivables, unbilled receivables (contract assets), and customer advances and deposits (contract liabilities) on our consolidated balance sheets. Other than contracts with customers with financing arrangements exceeding 12 months, revenue recognition is generally proximal to conversion to cash, except for Lottery instant products sold under percentage of retail sales contracts. Revenue is recognized for such contracts upon delivery to our customers, while conversion to cash is based on the retail sale of the underlying ticket to end consumers. As a result, revenue recognition under ASC 606 does not approximate conversion to cash for such contracts in any periods post-adoption. Total revenue recognized under such contracts for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 was $19$21 million and $23$40 million, inrespectively, and $26 million and $49 million for the three and six months ended March 31, 2020 andJune 30, 2019, respectively.

(3) Business Segments
We report our operations in 4 business segments—Gaming, Lottery, SciPlay 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 2019 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 2 in our 2019 10-K. The accounting policies of our business segments are the same as those described within the Notes in our 2019 10-K. The following tables present our segment information:

(5) Receivables, Allowance for Credit Losses and Credit Quality of Receivables

Receivables
Receivables are recorded at the invoiced amount less allowance for credit losses and imputed interest, if any. For a portion of our receivables, we have provided extended payment terms with installment payment terms greater than 12 months and in certain international jurisdictions up to 36 months. We have a total of $157$149 million in gross receivables with extended payment terms as of March 31,June 30, 2020. Interest income, if any, is recognized ratably over the life of the receivable, and any related fees or costs to establish the receivables are charged to selling, general and administrative expense as incurred, as they are immaterial. Actual or imputed interest, if any, is determined based on current market rates at the time the receivables with extended payment terms originated and is recorded ratably over the payment period, which approximates the effective interest method. We generally impute interest income on all receivables with payment terms greater than one year that do not contain a stated interest rate. Our general policy is to recognize interest on receivables until a receivable is deemed non-performing, which we define as payments being overdue by 180 days beyond the agreed-upon terms. When a receivable is deemed to be non-performing, the item is placed on non-accrual status and interest income is recognized on a cash basis. Accrued interest, non-performing receivables and interest income were immaterial for all periods presented. Effective January 1, 2020, we changed our receivables presentation and combined accounts receivable and notes receivable into a single line item on our

16


balance sheets due to their similar characteristics and have reclassified the prior period balances to conform to the current year presentation.
The following table summarizes the components of current and long-term receivables, net:

Allowance for Credit Losses

As described in Note 1, results for reporting periods effective January 1, 2020 are presented in accordance with ASC 326 while prior period amounts continue to be reported in accordance with previously applicable U.S. GAAP. We recorded a net increase to accumulated loss of $6 million for the cumulative effect of adopting ASC 326, which was primarily related to incremental allowance for credit losses associated with our current receivables and contract assets that were not required under previously applicable U.S. GAAP. The adoption impact of this standard to our consolidated statements of operations, balance sheets, and cash flows during the quarter ended March 31, 2020 was not material.

The receivables allowance for credit losses is our best estimate of the amount of expected credit losses in our existing receivables over the contractual term. We evaluate our exposure to credit loss on both a collective and individual basis. We evaluate such receivables on a geographic basis and take into account any relevant available information, which begins with historical credit loss experience and consideration of current and expected conditions and market trends (such as general economic conditions, other microeconomic and macroeconomic considerations, etc.) and reasonable and supportable forecasts that could impact the collectability of such receivables over the contractual term individually or in the aggregate. Changes in circumstances relating to these factors may result in the need to increase or decrease our allowance for credit losses in the future.

Credit Quality of Receivables

In our Gaming machine sales business, we file UCC-1 financing statements domestically in order to retain a security interest in the gaming machines that underlie a significant portion of our domestic receivables until the receivable balance is fully paid. However, the value of the gaming machines, if repossessed, may be less than the balance of the outstanding receivable. For international customers, depending on the country and our historic collection experience with the customer, we may obtain pledge agreements, bills of exchange, guarantees, post-dated checks or other forms of security agreements designed to enhance our ability to collect the receivables, although a majority of our international receivables do not have these features. In our Gaming operations business, because we own the Participation gaming machines that are leased or otherwise provided to the customer, in a bankruptcy the customer has to generally either accept or reject the lease or other agreement and, if rejected, our gaming machines are returned to us. Our receivables related to revenue earned on Participation gaming machines and all other revenue sources are typically unsecured claims.

Due to the significance of our gaming machines to the ongoing operations of our casino customers, we may be designated as a key vendor in any bankruptcy filing by a casino customer, which can enhance our position above other creditors in the bankruptcy. Due to our successful collection experience and our continuing relationship with casino customers and their businesses, it is infrequent that we repossess gaming machines from a customer in partial settlement of outstanding receivable balances. In those unusual instances where repossession occurs to mitigate our exposure on the related receivable, the repossessed gaming machines are subsequently resold in the used gaming machine market; however, we may not fully recover the receivable from this re-sale.

We have certain concentrations of outstanding receivables in international locations that impact our assessment of the credit quality of our receivables. We monitor the macroeconomic and political environment in each of these locations in our assessment of the credit quality of our receivables. The international locationscustomers with significant concentrations (generally deemed to be exceeding 10%) of our receivables with terms longer than one year are as follows:in the Latin America region (“LATAM”) and are primarily comprised of Mexico, Peru and Argentina. The following table summarizes our LATAM receivables:

Mexico - Our receivables, net, from certain customers in Mexico at March 31, 2020 was $25 million. We collected $7 million of outstanding receivables from these customers during the three months ended March 31, 2020.

Peru - Our receivables, net, from certain customers in Peru at March 31, 2020 was $7 million. We collected $1 million of outstanding receivables from these customers during the three months ended March 31, 2020.

Argentina - Our receivables, net, from customers in Argentina at March 31, 2020 was $12 million, which are 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 $4 million of outstanding receivables from customers in Argentina during the three months ended March 31, 2020.

During the first quarter, we increased our allowance for credit losses by $28 million. This increase was$12 million and $40 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively. These increases were primarily related to Gaming customers in Latin AmericaLATAM (which transact with both domestic and international subsidiaries) as we expect those customers to bewere particularly affected by COVID-19 closures of gaming operations establishments. As noted above, we have concentrations of receivables in Latin America,LATAM, where customers generally take

18


longer to pay us than those from other geographies.geographies and late payments have continued to persist into the second quarter of 2020 in which we collected substantially less compared to historical quarterly collections primarily due to COVID related business interruptions. In addition, customers in this region expect and have often been granted extended payment terms as described above. Our customers in Argentina, Colombia and PeruLATAM have been and are expected to continue to be negatively affected by the

16


COVID-19-related closures of gaming operations establishments and the resulting impact on both their specific financial situations and the general macroeconomic environments in which they operate.

Our policy is to continuously review receivables and as information concerning credit quality arises, we reassess our expectations of future losses. If such losses exceed our existing allowance for credit losses we record an incremental reserve at that time. Our current allowance for credit losses represents our current expectation of credit losses; however future expectations could change as the ultimate impact of the COVID-19 disruption remains uncertain, particularly as to the financial stability of our customers during and after the COVID-19 disruption period.
The fair value of receivables 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, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the fair value of receivables, net, approximated the carrying value due to contractual terms of receivables generally being under 24 months.

Parts and work-in-process include parts for gaming machines, lottery terminals and instant lottery ticket materials, as well as labor and overhead costs for work-in-process associated with the manufacturing of instant lottery games and lottery terminals. Our finished goods inventory primarily consists of gaming machines for sale, instant products primarily for our Participation arrangements and our licensed branded merchandise.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, we recorded $21 million and $30 million, respectively, in inventory valuation charges (recorded in Cost of products sales) related to inventory in our Gaming business segment. Our new Gaming leadership team brought in late in the first quarter of 2020 began to set a new strategic plan for the Gaming business late in the second quarter of 2020. This new strategic plan includes revising product roadmaps and an assessment of how many and which platforms we will support, when we end service on legacy platforms and when we stop selling on such platforms in conjunction with new product launches. This new approach, combined with the rapid demand reduction that took place in the second quarter largely as a result of the COVID-19 disruptions, required us to reassess our inventory valuation, including whether we had excess or obsolete inventory based on the new strategic plan and related demand. In addition, the continued closures in the LATAM region make it difficult to execute our previous strategy of shipping legacy platforms into that market. The combination of these factors led to the $21 million inventory valuation charge recognized in the three months ended June 30, 2020. Our policy is to continue to review and assess these and other factors, especially during the COVID-19 disruption periods, and if such factors or our outlook changes, we record adjustments to the valuation of inventory.

Goodwill
Q1 2020 Legacy U.K. Gaming Impairment Charge

We test goodwill for impairment annually as of October 1 of each fiscal year or more frequently if events arise or circumstances change that indicate that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value.

A substantial portion of our legacy U.K. Gaming reporting unit revenue comes from Ladbrokes Coral Group (acquired by GVC Holdings PLC in March 2018), which operates LBOs in the U.K. In May 2018, the U.K. government published its decision mandating that the maximum stakes limit on fixed-odds betting terminals be reduced from £100 to £2, which was effective as of April 1, 2019. As a result of this change, LBO operators began to rationalize their retail operations, which among other measures has included closure of certain LBO shops. Consequently, as of October 1, 2019, we concluded that an elevated risk of goodwill impairment existed for our legacy U.K. Gaming reporting unit as adverse changes in projections for future operating results or other key assumptions, such as projected revenue, profit margin, capital expenditures or cash flows associated with investments included in that reporting unit could lead to future goodwill impairments.

During the first quarter of 2020, the COVID-19 disruptions resulted in the widespread closures of LBO shops across the U.K., which, along with global economic uncertainty, contributed to further deterioration in business conditions from our 2019 annual goodwill test date. This had an adverse effect on our legacy U.K. Gaming reporting unit, which necessitated performing a quantitative goodwill impairment test during the first quarter of 2020.

We performed this quantitative impairment test by comparing the fair value of our legacy U.K. Gaming reporting unit to its carrying value, including goodwill. As described in further detail below, the fair value of our legacy U.K. Gaming reporting unit was determined using a combination of both an income approach, based on the present value of discounted cash flows, and a market approach. Due to current market volatility and limited market data points specific to the nature of our legacy U.K. Gaming reporting unit operations, we placed greater weight on the income approach than on the market approach. As a result of this analysis, during the first quarter of 2020 we recognized a partial impairment charge totaling $54 million,

18


which is the amount by which the carrying value exceeded the estimated fair value. This impairment charge resulted in no tax benefit.

We used projections of revenues, profit margin, operating costs, capital expenditures and cash flows that primarily considered general economic and market conditions and estimated future results including the estimated impact of the COVID-19 disruptions. We used a range of different scenarios and derived estimated fair value based on an equal weighting of these scenarios to reflect the economic uncertainty resulting from the COVID-19 disruptions and the timing and magnitude of the economic recovery following the COVID-19 disruptions coupled with the impact of the regulatory change. The following ranges of the key estimates and assumptions were used in the discounted cash flow analysis:

Revenue growth for FY 2021 between negative 9% and negative 20%, an average revenue growth for FY 2022 to FY 2027 between positive 3% and positive 5%, and terminal revenue growth rate of positive 2.0%;
An average profit margin ranging from 13% to 23%;
Assumptions regarding future capital expenditures reflective of maintaining our current customer contracts; and
An overall discount rate ranging from 8.5% to 10.0%.

In our market comparable analysis, we considered revenue and EBITDA multiples ranging from 2.1x to 2.7x and 5.7x to 7.5x, respectively, and ultimately selected multiples at the low end of the range.

The legacy U.K. Gaming reporting unit is included in our Gaming business segment.

(11) Long-Term and Other Debt
Issuance of 2025 Unsecured Notes and Redemption of 2021 Notes

On July 1, 2020, we completed the issuance of $550 million in aggregate principal amount of 8.625% senior unsecured notes due 2025 in a private offering, for which we received the total net proceeds of $543 million. We used a portion of the net proceeds to redeem all $341 million of our outstanding 2021 Notes and paid accrued and unpaid interest thereon plus related premiums, fees and costs, which redemption was completed on July 17, 2020, and will use the remaining net proceeds to fund working capital and general corporate purposes.

The 2025 Unsecured Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture dated as of July 1,2020(the “2025 Unsecured Notes Indenture”). We may redeem some or all of the 2025 Unsecured Notes at any time prior to July 1, 2022 at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2025 Unsecured Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of the redemption plus a “make whole” premium. We may redeem some or all of the 2025 Unsecured Notes at any time on or after July 1, 2022 at the prices specified in the 2025 Unsecured Notes Indenture.

The 2025 Unsecured Notes are senior 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 debt that is expressly subordinated to the 2025 Unsecured Notes. The 2025 Unsecured Notes are guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by SGC and all of its wholly owned domestic restricted subsidiaries (other than SGI, the unrestricted business entities comprising our SciPlay business segment and certain immaterial subsidiaries), subject to customary exceptions.

(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, receivables, 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

As of March 31,June 30, 2020, 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, 2020. These hedges mature in February 2022.

24


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)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 interestInterest expense. We estimate the fair value of our interest rate swap contracts by discounting the future cash 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 gain (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 15 of our 2019 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 foreignForeign currency translation (loss) gain (loss) in Accumulated other comprehensive 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 interestInterest 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 firstsecond quarter of 2020, we designated $190$116 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, and the remaining

22


remeasurement change is recognized in Gain (loss) on remeasurement of debt in our consolidated statements of operations. 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 prior acquisitions, we have recorded certain contingent consideration liabilities, of which the values are primarily based on reaching certain earnings-based 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, 2020 are $10$11 million, of which $3$1 million is included in Accrued liabilities with the remainder included in Other long-term liabilities. Contingent consideration liabilities as of December 31, 2019 were $14 million, of which $7 million was included in Accrued liabilities with the remaining balance included in Other long-term liabilities.

(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-tax losses for 2020, we maintain a valuation allowance for certain of our U.S. operations as of March 31,June 30, 2020. We also maintain other valuation allowances for certain non-U.S. jurisdictions with cumulative losses.

The effective income tax ratesrate for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 was (2)%, and (10)% and (13)% for the three and six months ended March 31, 2020 andJune 30, 2019, were (3)% and (18)%, 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 certain of our U.S. net deferred tax assets, the effective tax rates for the three and six months ended March 31,June 30, 2020 and 2019 generally do not include the benefits of the U.S. tax losses. We recorded an overall tax expense in both periods due to pre-tax earnings in jurisdictions without valuation allowances. The change in effective tax rates relatedrelates primarily to the overall mix of income (loss) in our foreign jurisdictions without valuation allowances and the increase in unbenefited U.S. pre-tax losses. Additionally, the effective tax rate for the three and six months ended March 31,June 30, 2020 included an unfavorable adjustment for the legacy U.K. Gaming reporting unit goodwill impairment of $54 million recorded in the first quarter of 2020, which is not deductible for tax purposes. The tax structure of our SciPlay business was altered as a result of SciPlay’s initial public offering, which was completed on May 7, 2019. For the three and six months ended March 31,June 30, 2020, we recorded a tax provision for our 18% noncontrolling interest in SciPlay.

As discussed in Note 1, the COVID-19 disruptions significantly impacted certain segments of our business during the first quarterhalf of 2020. We considered the COVID-19 disruptions in our ability to realize deferred tax assets in the future and determined that such conditions did not change our overall valuation allowance positions. The U.S. signed into law on March 27, 2020 the CARES Act, which includes various income tax provisions to help stabilize U.S. businesses, including a provision to ease the limitation on deductible interest expense in 2019 and 2020, which will reduce our interest limitation for these years, preserving U.S. net operating losses. We continue to monitor and evaluate the tax implications resulting from the CARES Act and any new legislation passed in response to COVID-19 in the federal, state, and foreign jurisdictions where we have an income tax presence.

(15) Leases
Our total operating lease expenses for the three and six months ended March 31,June 30, 2020 and 2019 were $8 million and $9$16 million, respectively, and were $10 million and $19 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively.

(16) Litigation
We are involved in various routine and other specific legal proceedings, including the following which are described in Note 21 within our 2019 10-K: the Colombia litigation, SNAI litigation, Washington State Matter and Raqqa Matter. There have been no material changes to these matters since the 2019 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 for all of our legal matters that were contingencies as of March 31,June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

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 21 in our 2019 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 $13 million in 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

29


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 SG Gaming. In the complaint, the plaintiffs assert federal antitrust claims arising from the defendants’ procurement of particular U.S. and South African patents. The 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. The 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. On March 20, 2020, the district court denied the defendants’ motion to dismiss the plaintiffs’ amended complaint, and defendants filed an answer to Plaintiffs’ amended complaint on June 19, 2020. On June 3, 2020, the trial court granted the defendants’ request to bifurcate proceedings in the case, is proceeding.with discovery to occur first into the statute of limitations and release defenses asserted by the defendants in their motion to dismiss, before proceeding into broader discovery. The trial court set a September 18, 2020, deadline for the parties to complete discovery relating to the statute of limitations and release defenses. We are currently unable to determine the likelihood of an outcome or estimate a range of reasonably possible loss.

SciPlay IPO Matter (New York)

On or about October 14, 2019, the Police Retirement System of St. Louis filed a putative class action complaint in New York state court against SciPlay, certain of its executives and directors, and SciPlay’s underwriters with respect to its initial public offering (the “PRS Action”). The complaint was amended on November 18, 2019. The plaintiff seeks to represent a class of all persons or entities who acquired Class A common stock of SciPlay pursuant and/or traceable to the Registration Statement filed and issued in connection with SciPlay’s initial public offering, which commenced on or about May 3, 2019. The complaint asserts claims for alleged violations of Sections 11 and 15 of the Securities Act, 15 U.S.C. § 77, and seeks certification of the putative class; compensatory damages of at least $146 million, and the award of the plaintiff’s and the class’s reasonable costs and expenses incurred in the action.

On or about December 9, 2019, Hongwei Li filed a putative class action complaint in New York state court asserting substantively similar causes of action under the Securities Act of 1933 and substantially similar factual allegations as those alleged in the PRS Action (the “Li Action”). On December 18, 2019, the New York state court entered a stipulated order consolidating the PRS Action and the Li Action into a single lawsuit. On December 23, 2019, the defendants moved to dismiss the consolidated action.

We are currently unable to determine the likelihood of an outcome or estimate a range of reasonably possible loss, if any. We believe that the claims in the lawsuit are without merit, and intend to vigorously defend against them.

Sylebra Matter

On October 23, 2019, Sylebra Capital Partners Master Fund, Limited and P Sylebra, Limited (together, “Sylebra”) filed a complaint in Delaware Chancery Court against SGC, SG Gaming, Inc., and certain of SGC’s current and former executives and directors. The complaint asserts claims for alleged breaches of fiduciary duty and alleged aiding and abetting of such alleged breaches of fiduciary duty; for alleged unjust enrichment; for alleged anticipatory breach of Sylebra’s alleged rights under SGC’s prior Restated Certificate of Incorporation (“prior Charter”) and for alleged breach of that prior Charter; for alleged violations of certain Delaware statutes; and for alleged tortious interference with contract. The complaint seeks injunctive relief, declaratory relief, money damages, and the award of the plaintiffs’ costs and expenses incurred in the action. On December 20, 2019, the defendants filed a motion to dismiss Sylebra’s complaint. In response, on January 27, 2020, Sylebra filed an amended complaint, and on February 28, 2020, the defendants filed a motion to dismiss Sylebra’s amended complaint. On June 30, 2020, the trial court heard oral argument on defendants’ motion to dismiss Sylebra’s amended complaint. We are currently unable to determine the likelihood of an outcome or estimate a range of reasonably possible losses, if any. We believe that the claims in the lawsuit are without merit, and intend to vigorously defend against them.

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 — Impact of COVID-19
In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the rapidly spreading COVID-19 outbreak a pandemic. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, governments across the world implemented measures to prevent its spread including the temporary closure of all non-essential businesses and travel restrictions, which are affectinghave affected and continue to affect our business segments in a number of ways. These measures include, but are not limited to,The closure and phased in reopening of gaming establishments during the temporary closurelatter part of the second quarter of 2020 have impacted a substantial amount of our gaming operationsand, to a lesser extent, lottery operations. The reopening of gaming establishments began during the latter part of the second quarter of 2020, however, significant health and disruptionssafety measures continue to lottery operations onbe taken to ensure the safety of players which continues to negatively affect our gaming business segment as these measures are implemented and observed. These safety and social distancing measures include the reduction of floor occupancy, limitation of the number of players allowed at table games and a jurisdiction-by-jurisdiction basis.

reduction of slot machines available for play, among others.
Impact on Business Operations and Financial Results

Our Gaming business segment is especially impacted due to the widespread temporary closures and restricted re-opening of a substantial number of gaming operations establishments coupled with the global economic uncertainty. OurThe COVID-19 pandemic remains a rapidly evolving situation. Although businesses began reopening during the latter part of the second quarter of 2020, our Participation gaming business revenue and cash flows have beencontinue to be significantly negatively affected, as they are largely driven by players’ disposable incomes and level of gaming activity, along with anactivity. New social distancing requirements that were implemented in many jurisdictions have and are expected to continue to have a negative impact on short-term rentalsthe amount of bothcustomer traffic within gaming equipmentestablishments. The COVID-19 disruptions continue to cause prolonged periods of closures and table products. Asmodified operating schedules and may result in changes in customer behaviors, including a reduction in consumer discretionary spending as a result of the level of play declines due to casino closures or quarantines (whether self-imposed or imposeduncertainty caused by governments), there is a directly correlated decline in our Participation gaming business.the pandemic and unemployment levels. Additionally, our gaming machine and table product sales largely depend on our customers’ liquidity and operating results, which could significantly impacthas negatively impacted the replacement cycle and demand for gaming machines, table products and opportunities from new or expanded markets. Further, we have granted customer concessions for a portion of the time for which such customers’ operations were impacted by closures or quarantines. Also, based on historical gaming customers’ orders and our manufacturing capacity, a substantial portion of gaming machine sales are fulfilled in the third month of each quarter. AccordinglySince March when the COVID-19 disruptions became widespread, gaming machine sales revenues have been and continue to be particularly negatively impacted. We believe this negative trend could reduce the capital expenditures of casino operators and continue to lengthen the replacement cycles of their existing gaming machines.
Unfavorable economic conditions caused by COVID-19 could continue to impact the timing of cash receipts from our Gaming customers. In addition, unfavorable economic conditions have caused, and could continue to cause, some of our Gaming customers to temporarily close gaming venues or ultimately declare bankruptcy, which would adversely affect our business. In recent years, our Gaming business has expanded the use of extended payment term financing for gaming machine

32


purchases primarily in the LATAM region, and we expect to continue to provide a higher level of extended payment term financing in this business until demand from our customers for such financings abates or our business model changes. These financing arrangements may increase our collection risk, and if customers are not able to pay us, whether as a result of financial difficulties, bankruptcy or otherwise, we may incur provisions for bad debt related to our inability to collect certain receivables. In addition, both extended payment term financing and operating leases result in a delay in our receipt of cash, which reduces our cash balance, liquidity and financial flexibility to respond to changing economic events. Unfavorable economic conditions may also result in volatility in the credit and equity markets. The difficulty or inability of our customers to generate or obtain adequate levels of capital to finance their ongoing operations may reduce their ability to purchase our products and services. Refer to Note 5 for international locations with significant concentrations of our receivables with terms longer than one year.
We increased our allowance for credit losses by $12 million and $40 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2020, respectively. These increases were primarily related to Gaming customers in LATAM as those customers were particularly impacted beginningaffected by COVID-19 closures of gaming operations establishments. In addition, customers in this region expect and have often been granted extended payment terms. As described above, our customers in LATAM have been and are expected to continue to be affected by the COVID-19-related closures of gaming operations establishments and the resulting impact on both their specific financial situations and the general macroeconomic environments in which they operate.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, we recorded $21 million and $30 million, respectively, in inventory valuation charges (recorded in cost of product sales) related to inventory in our Gaming business segment primarily due to the COVID-19 disruption impacting future demand combined with a reassessment of our Gaming product strategy. Our new Gaming leadership team brought in late in the later partfirst quarter of 2020 began to set a new strategic plan for the Gaming business late in the second quarter of 2020. This new strategic plan includes revising product roadmaps and an assessment of how many and which platforms we will support, when we end service on legacy platforms and when we stop selling on such platforms in conjunction with new product launches. This new approach, combined with the rapid demand reduction that took place in the second quarter largely as a result of the first quarter.

COVID-19 disruptions, required us to reassess our inventory valuation, including whether we had excess or obsolete inventory based on the new strategic plan and related demand. In addition, the continued closures in the LATAM region make it difficult to execute our previous strategy of shipping legacy platforms into that market. The combination of these factors led to the $21 million inventory valuation charge recognized in the three months ended June 30, 2020. Our policy is to continue to review and assess these and other factors, especially during the COVID-19 disruptions, and if such factors or our outlook changes, we record adjustments to the valuation of inventory.
Our Lottery business was also affectedsegment continues to be negatively impacted primarily as certain lottery retail establishments are temporarily closed and others are experiencing the general slowdown due toa result of lower foot traffic and reduced discretionary spending by end players, resultingcoupled with international retail establishments that were temporarily closed and began to re-open during the second quarter of 2020. Lottery sales were down meaningfully early in the second quarter as a lower levelresult of lottery ticket purchases, which most immediately impacts certain of our European markets due to lock-downthe pandemic, but have since largely recovered in the U.S. and our SGEP revenue and cash flows andwe have also our cash flows from POS instant tickets arrangements as such amounts are not payable to us until the ticket sells through the retail channel.

seen a strong recovery in international markets.
The temporary closure of gaming operations, disruptions to lottery operations, travel restrictions, cancellation of sporting events, expected lower disposable incomes of consumers and the adverse impact on our casino and gaming customers’ liquidity and financial results caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, had and continues to have an adverse effect on our results of operations, cash flows and financial condition intofor the second quarterfirst half of 2020 and potentially into the second half of 2020 and potentially beyond.

WeAlthough gaming and lottery operations have begun to re-open, with encouraging early performance results, we are unable to determine the ultimate magnitude and the length of time that thesethe pandemic disruptions will continue to impact our future results of operations, cash flows and financial condition, which will depend, among other factors, on the currently unknowable duration of the COVID-19 pandemic, the impact of governmental regulations and actions that might continue to be imposed in response to the pandemic, change in customer behaviors, social distancing measures, decreased gaming establishments operating capacity, high unemployment rates, and the pace of overall recovery of gaming and lottery operations globally. We have

27


implemented a number of measures to reduce operating costs and conserve liquidity. These include measures such as: reductions in both salaries and workforce, including temporary voluntary 50% or greater reductions in salaries by our executive leadership team (100% as to our President and Chief Executive Officer)Officer until June 30, 2020 and 50% from July 1, 2020 to July 31, 2020), unpaid employee furloughs, temporary elimination of 401(k) matching among other compensation and benefits reductions and deferral of all non-essential operating and capital expenditures. We arehave also engagingengaged with our vendors to negotiate concessions on the timing and amount of payments to preserve liquidity through the COVID-19 disruption period. TheseWe estimate that these measures are expected to resultresulted in more than $50excess of $150 million in cost savings in the second quarter of 2020, while2020. Additionally, reduced capital expenditures inand the second quarter of 2020above measures are expected to be approximately $50 million lower than previously planned, with many of these actions resultingresult in aan overall lower future cost structure.

Impact on Liquidity

On May 8, 2020, SGC and the requisite lenders under SGI’s revolving credit facility entered into the Credit Agreement Amendment that, among other things, implements a financial covenant relief period through the end of the first quarter ending March 31, 2021 (the “Covenant Relief Period”), as a result of which SGI is not required to maintain compliance with the

33


consolidated net first lien leverage ratio covenant during the Covenant Relief Period, imposes a minimum liquidity requirement (excluding SciPlay) of at least $275 million during the Covenant Relief Period, with a potential step-down to at least $200 million for April and May 2021, and further restricts our ability to incur indebtedness and liens, make restricted payments and investments and prepay junior indebtedness during the Covenant Relief Period, subject to certain exceptions and further subject, in some instances, to maintaining minimum liquidity (excluding SciPlay) of at least $400 million. See Note 1 for additional details regarding the Credit Agreement Amendment.

As of March 31, 2020, our total available liquidity (excluding our SciPlay business segment) was $684 million, which included $483 million of undrawn availability under SGI’s revolving credit facility. On April 9, 2020, we borrowed $480 million under SGI’s revolving credit facility, whichfacility. As of June 30, 2020, our total available liquidity (excluding our SciPlay business segment) was substantially all of the remaining availability thereunder.$637 million. We continue to actively manage our daily cash flows and continue to evaluate additional measures that will reduce operating costs and conserve cash. We believe that, based on our current projections, we will have sufficient liquidity for a period of at least one year.

On July 1, 2020, we completed the issuance of $550 million in aggregate principal amount of 8.625% senior unsecured notes due 2025 in a private offering, for which we received the total net proceeds of $543 million. We used a portion of the net proceeds to redeem all $341 million of our outstanding 2021 Notes and paid accrued and unpaid interest thereon plus related premiums, fees and costs, which redemption was completed on July 17, 2020, and will use the remaining net proceeds to fund working capital and general corporate purposes. This refinancing transaction extends our significant debt maturities until 2024.
Segments
We report our operations in four business segments - Gaming, Lottery, SciPlay and Digital - representing our different products and services. 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:

Current Year Update

See the Recent“Recent Events – Impact of COVID-19COVID-19” section above for a description of the COVID-19 impact on our Gaming business segment, which had an adverse effect on our results of operations and cash flows in the first quarterhalf of 2020 and is continuing into the second quarter and potentially into the second half of 2020 and potentially beyond. In addition to the adverse effect of COVID-19, we anticipate challenges in our gaming operations as corporate consolidations continue and decline in our gaming systems products and services due to certain large Canadian contracts that were completed in 2019.

All of our Gaming revenue was negatively impacted by the COVID-19 disruptions that resulted in temporary closures and/or reduced operating capacity of a substantial number of gaming operations establishments in various jurisdictions globally, as described in the Recent“Recent Events – Impact of COVID-19COVID-19” section above.

Although gaming establishments began to reopen in June, and have seen strong initial demand, new social distancing requirements that were implemented in many jurisdictions (including reduced floor occupation to 50%, table play customer limitations and reduction of slot machines available for play) have had and are expected to continue to have a negative impact on our Gaming revenue until casino operators are able to return to normal operations.

(34)% and 16%, respectively.
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 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-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 2019 10-K.
Current Year Update
See Recent“Recent Events – Impact of COVID-19COVID-19” section above for a description of the COVID-19 impact on our Lottery business segment, which had and willcould have an adverse effect on our results of operations and cash flows continuing into the second quarter and potentially into the second half of 2020 and potentially beyond. In addition to the adverse effect of COVID-19, we believe we will continue to face intense price-based competition in our Lottery business in 2020 and potentially beyond. 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 requests for proposals, 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.

The decrease in instant products revenue for both comparable periods is primarily due to the negative impact from COVID-19 disruptions, which resulted in a lower level of lottery ticket sales and to a lesser extent a less profitable revenue mix among our different lottery instant ticket programs.sales. The decrease in lottery systems revenue for the comparable periods is primarily due to lower domesticCOVID-19 disruptions and higher 2019 lottery systems equipment sales.sales, which were $5 million and $14 million higher for the three and six month comparable periods, respectively.
Operating Expenses and AEBITDA
The decrease in operating expenses and decrease in AEBITDA for both comparable periods and AEBITDA margin decreasesfor the six month comparable periods are correlated with the decrease of lottery ticket retail sales not only on its impact on revenue described above but also withand the impact COVID-19 disruptions had on our joint ventures (particularly LNS our Italy joint venture)LNS), coupled with lower operating expenses due to implemented austerity measures. As a result of the less profitable revenue mix.above drivers, AEBITDA margin for the three month comparable period improved by 1 percentage point, while AEBITDA margin for the six month comparable period decreased by 93 percentage points. AEBITDA margin decrease for the six month comparable period is primarily due to lower JV EBITDA, contributing 5 percentage points to 37%.the overall decrease, more than offsetting the impact of lower operating expenses.
SCIPLAY
We generate revenue in our SciPlay business segment from the sale of virtual coins, chips and bingo cards, (collectively referred to as “coins, chips and cards”), which players can use to play casino-style slot games, table games and bingo games (i.e., spin in the case of casino-style slot games, bet in the case of table games and use of bingo cards in the case of bingo games). We distribute our games through various global social web and mobile platforms such as Facebook, Apple, Google and Amazon, with some of our games available on Microsoft and other web and mobile platforms. The games are primarily our WMS®, Bally®, Barcrest®, and SHFL® branded games. We offer both third-party branded games and original content.
Our apps include Jackpot Party® Casino, Gold Fish® Casino, Quick Hit® Slots, Hot Shot Casino®, Bingo ShowdownTM, 88 Fortunes®, and MONOPOLY Slots,and recently added Backgammon and Solitaire social games as a part of Come2Play acquisition on various platforms referenced above.

While the COVID-19 disruptions did not materiallynegatively affect SciPlay’s first quarter 2020 results for both comparable periods (see the Recent“Recent Events – Impact of COVID-19COVID-19” section above), sustained consumer unease, lower discretionary spending and shelter-in-place orders may impact SciPlay’s results of operations in the second quarterhalf of 2020 and potentially beyond. SciPlay experienced an increase in nearly all key performance indicators and revenue beginning in March 2020 and continuing throughout the three months ended June 30, 2020, which we believe is partially due to the stay at home measures and increased player free time. We believe the increase in paying players is also a result of significant game enhancements that have enabled us to attract and retain new players. The new players are highly engaged, and could allow us to continue to drive increases in our key performance indicators, as they continue to be active paying players following the easing of COVID-19 restrictions. Many of SciPlay’s current and potential players may have significantly more free time to play games, however they may also experience sustained consumer unease and have lower discretionary income. Beginning late March,
During the first half of 2020, we have experienceddeployed significant updates across a number of our portfolio games, and we continued testing in certain international markets. We expect to deploy further updates to games in future quarters.
On June 22, 2020, SciPlay completed the acquisition of the privately held mobile and social game company Come2Play (see Note 1), which will enable SciPlay to expand and diversify its social games. As a result of this acquisition we now offer Backgammon and Solitaire social games targeted towards casual game players on some of the same platforms in which we currently offer our existing games.

The decreaseincrease in operating expenses for both comparable periods is primarily due to a $7 million decrease inhigher cost of revenue correlated with revenue growth, partially offset by lower IP charges paid to the Gaming business segment, and a $6 million decrease in marketing and advertising costs, which are reflected in increases in AEBITDA and AEBITDA margin. AEBITDA margin for the three and six month comparable periods increased by 8 and 9, percentage points to 29%.36% and 33%, respectively.
DIGITAL

Our Digital segment provides a comprehensive suite of digital gaming, iLottery and sports betting solutions and services, including digital RMG and sports wagering solutions, distribution platforms, content, products and services. A portion of our Digital revenue consists of professional services related to highly customized software design, development, licensing, maintenance and support services, which are derived from a comprehensive suite of technology solutions. These technology solutions allow our customers to operate sports books, which can offer sport (or non-sport) events and betting markets across both fixed-odds and pari-mutuel betting styles. We also provide the Open Platform System which offers a wide range of reporting and administrative functions and tools providing operators full control over all areas of digital gaming operations. Additionally, we derive revenue from our content aggregation platforms, including Open Gaming System (OGS), remote gaming servers, SG Universe®Universe® platform and various other platforms, which can deliver a wide spectrum of internally developed and branded casino-style games and popular third-party provider casino-style games to gaming operators. Generally, we host the play of our game content on our centrally-located servers that are integrated with the online casino operators’ websites.

Current Year Update

While the impact of the COVID-19 disruptions was not material on our first quarterhalf 2020 revenue, continued closure of gaming facilities, cancellations of sporting events, consumer unease and lower discretionary spending willdid have a greater negative impact on our customers’ operations and consequently our results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, as a significant portion of our gaming and sports revenue is based on the volume of wagers generated by our customers.

We continue to expand our customer base and capitalize on both iGaming and sports opportunities in the U.S. by leveraging our industry leading platforms, content and solutions.

While we do not believe these trends are long lasting nor that the magnitude of the decrease in our stock price andthe fair value of our debt duringor the first quartervolatility of our stock price consistent with market conditions is necessarily indicative of the fair values of our reporting units decreasing below their carrying values, we are unable to determine the ultimate magnitude and the length of time that these disruptions will continue to impact our future results of operations, cash flows and financial condition.

We assessed our estimated fair values of the reporting units as of October 1, 2019 (as of March 31, 2020 for our legacy U.K. Gaming reporting unit) compared to the total enterprise value using the average stock price and the fair value of our debt as of March 31,June 30, 2020, (prior to and during the COVID-19 disruptions), and concluded that such analysis does not indicate that estimated fair values for allany of our reporting units other than for our legacy U.K. Gaming reporting unit, more likely than not decreased below those reporting units’ carrying values. Accordingly, we determined the COVID-19 disruptions do not trigger an impairmentany impairments at March 31,June 30, 2020 for any reporting units other than our legacy U.K. Gaming reporting unit;units; however, this could change in the future depending on prevailing conditions and changes in our current estimates of the timing and magnitude of the economic recovery following the COVID-19 disruptions.

As noted above and as described in Note 8, we determined that our legacy U.K. Gaming reporting unit’s goodwill was impaired during the first quarter. We believequarter of 2020. During the first quarter of 2020, we determined that the COVID-19 disruptions impacting our Gaming segment reporting units necessitated a supplemental analysis of the underlying goodwill carrying amounts to determine whether a full quantitative assessment was warranted. We believeconcluded the impact of the COVID-19 disruptions on our reporting units, outsideother than our legacy U.K. Gaming segment doesreporting unit, did not reach a level that triggerstriggered a quantitative test at this time as there was significant cushion calculated as of our

37


latest full quantitative valuation in the 2019 annual impairment test and the supplemental sensitivity analysis described below corroborated that there continued to be sufficient cushion as of March 31, 2020.
Our second quarter 2020 analysis
concluded
that it is not more likely than not that an impairment exists in the reporting units in our Gaming segment.
The supplemental analysis of the likelihood of impairment in the Gaming segment reporting units describedperformed in the preceding paragraphfirst quarter of 2020 leveraged the full quantitative valuations prepared in the fourth quarter of 2019 as the base, and included a sensitivity analysis eliminating all cash flows from 2020 and reduced 2021 cash flows by 50%, with operations returning to a normal level in 2022. This sensitivity analysis indicated a fair value cushion exceeding 20% in each of our Gaming segment reporting units other than our legacy U.K. Gaming reporting unit. As a result,part of our second quarter 2020 goodwill analysis, we believedetermined that it is not more likely than not that an impairment exists in the reporting units in our Gaming segment (other than our legacy U.K. Gaming reporting unit).segment. We also believe there to be an elevated risk of goodwill impairment for the unimpaired Gaming segment reporting units if the adverse impact of the COVID-19 disruptions or overall recovery for these reporting units sustains over an extended period of time.

The following table summarizes goodwill balances and cushions based on the latest annual goodwill test for all of our Gaming segment reporting units other than our legacy U.K. Gaming reporting unit:

As disclosed in Note 8, based on the results of our first quarter 2020 interim goodwill impairment test for our legacy U.K. Gaming reporting unit, we recorded a partial goodwill impairment charge of $54 million. We estimated the fair value of the legacy U.K. Gaming reporting unit using both an income approach that analyzed a range of projected discounted cash flows and a market approach that considered comparable public companies.

Performing a discounted cash flow analysis requires the use of significant judgments, including: (1) estimation of future cash flows dependent on internal forecasts, (2) estimation of the long-term rate of growth for our business, (3) the relative risk of achieving those cash flows, and (4) determination of our weighted average cost of capital, all of which are subject to overall uncertainty about the magnitude and duration of the COVID-19 disruptions. When using the market approach, we make judgments about the comparability of publicly traded companies engaged in similar businesses or public transactionstransaction information for similar businesses. We base our judgments on factors such as size, growth rates, profitability, risk, and return on investment. We also make judgments when adjusting market multiples of revenue, and earnings for these companies to reflect

44


their relative similarity to our business. Refer to Note 8 for key estimates and assumptions used in the first quarter 2020 discounted cash flow analysis for our legacy U.K. Gaming reporting unit.

The remaining Goodwill balance for our legacy U.K. Gaming reporting unit as of March 31,June 30, 2020 was $109$115 million. Any future adverse changes in projections for future operating results or other key assumptions, such as projected revenue, profit margin, capital expenditures or cash flows associated with investments included in our estimation of fair value for our legacy U.K. Gaming reporting unit could lead to additional future goodwill impairments, which could be material.

Inventory Valuation
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is determined on the first-in, first-out or weighted moving average method. Our inventory primarily consists of gaming machines and table products for sale and related parts, instant products for our Participation and PPU arrangements. We review our inventory levels each reporting period and adjust the value of our inventory to the extent we determine that inventory cost is in excess of its net realizable value. To estimate obsolete and excess inventory, we consider a number of qualitative and quantitative factors, including product strategy and product lifecycles, estimates of future demand, current pricing, historical sales trends, market trends, and economic conditions. Any changes in these factors could result in material inventory charges which would increase our cost of products and decrease our gross margin, and such charges could be material.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, we recorded $21 million and $30 million, respectively, in charges related to inventory in our Gaming business segment. These charges are primarily due to the COVID-19 disruption impacting future demand combined with a reassessment of our Gaming products strategy, which have commenced during the second quarter of 2020 by the new Gaming business segment leadership and is expected to continue into the second half of the year. The total Gaming business segment net inventory as of June 30, 2020 was $157 million.
Other than our update to the goodwill impairment assessment and inventory valuation above, there have been no significant changes in our critical accounting estimate policies or the application or the results of the application of those policies to our condensed consolidated financial statements from those presented in “Item 7. Management'sManagement’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” included in our 2019 10-K.

LIQUIDITY, CAPITAL RESOURCES AND WORKING CAPITAL
Cash and Available Liquidity
As of March 31,June 30, 2020, our principal sources of liquidity, other than cash flows provided by operating activities, were cash and cash equivalents, including SciPlay cash and cash equivalents (for our SciPlay business segment), and amounts available under the SGI revolving credit facility and the SciPlay Revolver (for our SciPlay business segment) discussed below under “Credit Agreement and Other Debt”.

On April 9, 2020, we borrowed $480 million under SGI’s revolving credit facility, which was substantially all of the remaining availability thereunder.
On May 8, 2020, the Company and the requisite lenders under SGI’s revolving credit facility entered into the Credit Agreement Amendment that, among other things, implements a financial covenant relief period through the end of the first quarter ending March 31, 2021 (the “Covenant Relief Period”), as a result of which SGI is not required to maintain compliance

45


with the consolidated net first lien leverage ratio covenant during the Covenant Relief Period, imposes a minimum liquidity requirement (excluding SciPlay) of at least $275 million during the Covenant Relief Period, with a potential step-down to at least $200 million for April and May 2021, and further restricts our ability to incur indebtedness and liens, make restricted payments and investments and prepay junior indebtedness during the Covenant Relief Period, subject to certain exceptions and further subject in some instances to maintaining minimum liquidity (excluding SciPlay) of at least $400 million. See Note 1 for additional details regarding the Credit Agreement Amendment.
On July 1, 2020, we completed the issuance of $550 million in aggregate principal amount of 8.625% senior unsecured notes due 2025 in a private offering and on July 17, 2020 we redeemed all $341 million of our outstanding 2021 Notes (see above and Note 11).
Total cash held by our foreign subsidiaries was $128$150 million and $112 million as of March 31,June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. 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.
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 “Risk Factors” under Part II, Item 1A in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and under Part I, Item 1A in our 2019 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, 2020 our outstanding performance bonds totaled $261$257 million. Our 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 “Risk Factors” under Part II, Item 1A in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and under Part I, Item 1A in our 2019 10-K.
As described in Note 1 in our 2019 10-K, on May 7, 2019 we received $312 million in net proceeds from the SciPlay offering (net of(excluding $30 million used by SciPlay to pay the initial public offering related expenses with the balance being retained by SciPlay for general corporate purposes). The ability of SciPlay to pay dividends or make other distributions to us, or to amend the agreements between SciPlay and us and our other subsidiaries, may be limited by the terms of the SciPlay Revolver or the terms of any future indebtedness that SciPlay may incur. For additional details see “Liquidity, Capital Resources and Working Capital” section in our 2019 10-K.

Summarized Financial Information of the Obligor Group
We conduct substantially all of our business through our U.S. and foreign subsidiaries. As of March 31,June 30, 2020, our obligations under the 2021 Notes, the 2025 Secured Notes, the 2026 Secured Euro Notes, the 2026 Unsecured Euro Notes, the 2026 Unsecured Notes, the 2028 Unsecured Notes, and the 2029 Unsecured Notes were fully and unconditionally and jointly and severally guaranteed by the SGC and the Guarantors subsidiaries other than SGI, of which the 2021 Notes are a registered security. The guarantees of our 2021 Notes, 2025 Secured Notes, 2026 Secured Euro Notes, 2026 Unsecured Euro Notes, 2026 Unsecured Notes, 2028 Unsecured Notes, and 2029 Unsecured 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; and (5) the proper designation of the guarantor as an unrestricted subsidiary pursuant to the indenture governing the respective Notes.

Contractual Obligations
ThereOther than the private offering of $550 million of 2025 Unsecured Notes and redemption of 2021 Notes, both subsequent to June 30, 2020 (see Note 11), 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 2019 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:

Interest Rate Risk 

As of March 31,June 30, 2020, the face value of long term debt was $8,777$9,259 million, including $4,246$4,715 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 $42$47 million. All of our interest rate sensitive financial instruments are held for other than trading purposes.
 
We currently use 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

41



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 15 in our 2019 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 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 with respect to the U.S. Dollar.
 
As of March 31,June 30, 2020, 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

48



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, 2020, 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 $63$65 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
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as required by Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(b) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that these disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

During the first quarter of 2020, thereThere were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended June 30, 2020 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings
For a description of our legal proceedings, see Note 16 in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and Note 21 in our 2019 10-K.

Item 1A. Risk Factors
There have been no material changes in our risk factors from those disclosed under Item 1A “Risk Factors” included in our 2019 10-K, except as noted below.
The recent COVID-19 pandemic and similar health epidemics, contagious disease outbreaks and public perception thereof, could significantly disruptdisrupted our operations and adversely affectaffected our business, results of operations, cash flows or financial condition.

The recent outbreak of a novel strain of coronavirus, COVID-19, and public perception thereof, have contributed to consumer unease and decreased discretionary spending and consumer travel, which have had, and will continue to have, a negative effect on us, especially in our Gaming and Lottery businesses. Other future health epidemics or contagious disease outbreaks could do the same. We cannot predict the ultimate effects that the outbreak of COVID-19, any resulting unfavorable social, political and economic conditions and decrease in discretionary spending or travel would have on us, as they would be expected to impact our customers, suppliers and business partners in varied ways in different communities. In our Gaming business, especially our Participation gaming business, our Digital business, and our Lottery business, our revenue is largely driven by players’ disposable incomes and level of gaming activity and lottery purchases. The recent outbreak of COVID-19 has led to economic and financial uncertainty for many consumers and has reduced, and may continue to reduce, the disposable incomes of players across all of our business units. This may resultresulted in fewer patrons visiting casinos and fewer players purchasing lottery products, whether land-based or online, and lower amounts spent per casino visit or lottery purchase orand may result in, reduced spend on online gambling activities, which negatively impact the results of operations, cash flows and financial condition of our casino customers, their ability to purchase or lease our products and services, revenues to lotteries and, therefore, our Lottery business revenue, and revenues to our online casino and sportsbook partners and, therefore, our Digital business revenue.

The outbreak of COVID-19 and the resulting unfavorable economic conditions have also impacted, and could continue to impact, the ability of our customers to make timely payments to us. These unfavorable conditions have caused, and could continue to or may cause, some of our Gaming and Lottery customers to temporarily close gaming venues and lottery operations, decrease spending on marketing of or purchases of Lottery products or declare bankruptcy, which would adversely

49



affect our business. In recent years, our Gaming business has expanded the use of extended payment term financing for gaming machine purchases, and we expect to continue to provide a higher level of extended payment term financing in this business until demand from our customers for such financings abates or our business model changes. These arrangements may increase our collection risk, and if customers are not able to pay us, whether as a result of financial difficulties, bankruptcy or otherwise, we may incur provisions for bad debt related to our inability to collect certain receivables. In addition, both extended payment term financing and operating leases result in a delay in our receipt of cash, which reduces our cash balance, liquidity and financial flexibility to respond to changing economic events. We have also seen a negative impact on future demand of certain Gaming products as a result of COVID-19, which has resulted and could continue to result in material inventory charges, which could increase our cost of products and decrease our gross margin. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, we recorded $21 million and $30 million, respectively, in charges related to inventory in our Gaming business segment. The recent outbreak also resulted in significant volatility in both the credit and equity markets, potentially leading to an economic downturn. The difficulty or inability of our customers to generate or obtain adequate levels of capital to finance their ongoing operations may reduce their ability to purchase our products and services. In our Lottery business, we believe that difficult economic conditions have contributed, or may contribute, to reductions in spending on marketing by our customers and, in certain instances, less favorable terms under our contracts, as many of our customers face budget shortfalls and seek to cut costs. In our Digital business, the suspension or cancellation of the majority of sporting events which has and could continue to negatively impact the financial condition of our sportsbook customers, their ability to purchase development and other services, their risk of payment default, or their spending levels as they seek to reduce costs, each of which could negatively impact our Digital business revenue. In addition, suppliers to our Digital business may suffer financial difficulties and may not be able to offer their services and products, which could restrict the provision of our services and negatively impact our business, results of operations, cash flows or financial condition.

Various gambling regulators have implemented additional responsible and safer gambling measures relating to our Digital casino business as a result of the COVID-19 outbreak, including the implementation of bet limits, spin speeds, deposit limits and bonusing, which may have a negativecould negatively impact on our business, results of operations, cash flows or financial condition, particularly if additional gambling regulators follow suit.

Furthermore, this outbreak of COVID-19 has caused, and may continue to cause us and certain of our suppliers, to implement temporary adjustment of work schemes allowing employees to work from home and collaborate remotely. We have

taken measures to monitor and reduce the impact of the outbreak, including putting in place a global crisis monitoring team, protocols for responding when employees are infected and enhanced cleaning procedures at all sites, but we cannot assure these will be sufficient to mitigate the risks faced by our and our partners’ work forces. We have also taken measures to reduce operating costs and ensure liquidity given the uncertain impact of COVID-19 on revenue, deferred all non-critical capital expenditures, have implemented a number of employee-related actions and are actively considering further actions. However, we have experienced and may still experience lower work efficiency and productivity, which may adversely affect our service quality, and our business operations have been and could be disrupted if and/or when any of our employees has been or is suspected of infection, since this has and may cause our employees to be quarantined and/or our offices to be temporarily shut down. We will continue to incur costs for our operations, and our revenues during this period are difficult to predict. As a result of any of the above developments, our business, results of operations, cash flows or financial condition for the full fiscal year of 2020, especially in the second quarter, have been and will be adversely affected by the COVID-19 outbreak. The extent to which this outbreak impacts our results of operations, cash flows and financial condition will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and unpredictable, including new information which may emerge concerning the severity and duration of this outbreak and the actions taken by governmental authorities and us to contain it or treat its impact. For more information on the impact of COVID-19 pandemic on each of our business segments and measures taken by us in response to COVID-19, see section captioned “Recent Events- Impact of COVID-19” in Item 2. “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.”

Unfavorable U.S. and international economic conditions, or decreased discretionary spending or travel due to other factors such as terrorist activity or threat thereof, civil unrest, health epidemics, contagious disease outbreaks, or public perception thereof or other economic or political uncertainties, mayhave adversely affectaffected our business, results of operations, cash flows orand financial condition.

Unfavorable economic conditions, including recession, economic slowdown, decreased liquidity in the financial markets, decreased availability of credit and relatively high rates of unemployment, have had, and may continue to have, a negative effect on our business. Socio-political factors such as terrorist activity or threat thereof, civil unrest or other economic or political uncertainties, or health epidemics, contagious disease outbreaks, or public perception thereof that contribute to consumer unease may also result in decreased discretionary spending or travel by consumers and have a negative effect on our businesses. We cannot fully predict the effects that unfavorable social, political and economic conditions, economic uncertainties and public health crises and any resulting decrease in discretionary spending or travel would have on us, as they would be expected to impact our customers, suppliers and business partners in varied ways. For a description of the impact of the outbreak of COVID-19 and other public health crises, see the risk factor captioned “The recent COVID-19 pandemic and

50



similar health epidemics, contagious disease outbreaks and public perception thereof, could significantly disrupt our operations and adversely affect our business, results of operations, cash flows or financial condition.”

In our Gaming business, especially our Participation gaming business, our revenue is largely driven by players’ disposable incomes and level of gaming activity. Unfavorable economic conditions have reduced, or may reduce, the disposable incomes of casino patrons and resulted, or may result, in fewer patrons visiting casinos, whether land-based or online, and lower amounts spent per casino visit. A further or extended decline in disposable income could resulthas resulted in reduced play levels on our Participation gaming machines, causing our results of operations and cash flows from these products to decline. Additionally, higher travel and other costs may adversely affect the number of players visiting our customers’ casinos. Adverse changes in discretionary consumer spending or consumer preferences, resulting in fewer patrons visiting casinos and reduced play levels, could also be driven by factors such as an unstable job market, outbreaks of contagious diseases or public perception thereof or fears of terrorism or other violence. A decline in play levels mayhas negatively impactimpacted the results of operations, cash flows and financial condition of our casino customers and their ability to purchase or lease our products and services.

Unfavorable economic conditions have also impacted, and could continue to impact, the ability of our Gaming customers to make timely payments to us. In addition, unfavorable economic conditions have caused, and could continue to cause, some of our Gaming customers to temporarily close gaming venues or ultimately declare bankruptcy, which would adversely affect our business. In recent years, our Gaming business has expanded the use of extended payment term financing for gaming machine purchases, and we expect to continue to provide a higher level of extended payment term financing in this business until demand from our customers for such financings abates or our business model changes. These financing arrangements may increase our collection risk, and if customers are not able to pay us, whether as a result of financial difficulties, bankruptcy or otherwise, we may incur provisions for bad debt related to our inability to collect certain receivables. In addition, both extended payment term financing and operating leases result in a delay in our receipt of cash, which reduces our cash balance, liquidity and financial flexibility to respond to changing economic events. Unfavorable economic conditions may also result in volatility in the credit and equity markets. The difficulty or inability of our customers to generate or obtain adequate levels of capital to finance their ongoing operations may reduce their ability to purchase our products and services. Refer to Note 6 for international locations with significant concentrations of our receivables with terms longer than one year.

In our Lottery business, we believe that difficult economic conditions have contributed, or may contribute, to reductions in spending on marketing by our customers and, in certain instances, less favorable terms under our contracts, as many of our customers face budget shortfalls and seek to cut costs.

In our Digital business based on a Participation model, our revenue is largely driven by disposable incomes and level of player activity. Unfavorable economic conditions has reduced and may continue to reduce the disposable incomes of end users consuming the services, which may in turncould negatively impact revenues for the Digital business. The outbreak of COVID-19 has resulted in the suspension or cancellation of the majority of sporting events which has and could continue to negatively impact the financial condition of our sportsbook customers, their ability to purchase development and other services, their risk of payment default, or their spending levels as they seek to reduce costs, each of which could negatively impact our Digital business revenue. In addition, suppliers to our Digital business may suffer financial difficulties and may not be able to offer their services and products, which could restrict the provision of our services and negatively impact our revenues. Various gambling regulators have implemented additional responsible and safer gambling measures relating to our Digital casino business as a result of the COVID-19 outbreak, including the implementation of bet limits, spin speeds, deposit limits and bonusing, which may have a negativecould negatively impact on our revenues, particularly if additional gambling regulators follow suit.

There are ongoing concerns regarding the debt burden of certain countries, particularly in Europe and South America, and their ability to meet their future financial obligations, which have resulted in downgrades of the debt ratings for these countries. We currently operate in, and our growth strategy may involve pursuing expansion or business opportunities in certain of these jurisdictions, such as Argentina, Brazil, Greece, Italy, Puerto Rico, Turkey and Ukraine among others. These sovereign debt concerns, whether real or perceived, could result in a recession, prolonged economic slowdown, or otherwise negatively impact the general health and stability of the economies in these countries or more broadly. In more severe cases, this could result in a limitation on the availability or flow of capital, thereby restricting our liquidity and negatively impacting our results of operations, cash flows and financial condition.

Our future results of operations may be negatively impacted by slow growth or declines in the replacement cycle of gaming machines and by the slow growth of new gaming jurisdictions or slow addition of casinos in existing jurisdictions.

Demand for our Gaming products and services is driven by the replacement of existing gaming machines in existing casinos, the establishment of new jurisdictions, the opening of additional casinos in existing jurisdictions and the expansion of existing casinos. Slow growth or declines in the replacement cycle of gaming machines have reduced and will continue to reduce the demand for our products and negatively impact our results of operations, cash flows and financial condition. In 2019condition, and

51



have resulted and could continue to result in material inventory charges, which could increase our cost of products and decrease our gross margin. We recorded charges related to inventory of $21 million and $30 million in the first three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, in our Gaming business segment primarily due to the COVID-19 disruption impacting future demand combined with a reassessment of 2020, our gaming machine sales were affected by fewer casino openings and expansions.

Gaming product strategy.
The opening of new casinos, expansion of existing casinos and replacement of existing gaming machines in existing casinos fluctuate with demand, economic conditions, regulatory approvals and the availability of financing and have been negatively affected by the recent COVID-19 pandemic. In addition, the expansion of gaming into new jurisdictions can be a protracted process. In the U.S., U.K. and other international jurisdictions in which we operate, governments usually require a public referendum and legislative action before establishing or expanding gaming. Any of these factors could delay, restrict or prohibit the expansion of our business and negatively impact our results of operations, cash flows and financial condition.

We heavily depend on our ability to win, maintain and renew our customer contracts, including our long-term Lottery contracts, and we could lose substantial revenue if we are unable to renew certain of our contracts on substantially similar terms or at all.

Generally, our Lottery contracts contain initial multi-year terms, with optional renewal periods at the discretion of the customer. Upon the expiration of any such contract, including any extensions thereof, a new contract may be awarded through a competitive bidding process. Conversely, in some instances, Lottery customers are authorized to extend contracts beyond the term initially agreed in the applicable contract without subjecting the contract to competitive bidding, thereby eliminating the possibility of obtaining that new business.

We cannot assure that our current contracts will be extended or that we will be awarded new contracts as a result of competitive bidding processes or otherwise in the future. In addition, it is common for competitors to protest the award of Lottery contracts to us and any such protest could delay or prevent our ability to enter into a new contract.us. For example, there is a pending third-party protest against the renewal of the LNS concession to operate the Italian instant games lottery. Such protests could delay or prevent our ability to enter into a new contract. In addition, the recent outbreak of COVID-19 has caused some lotteries to delay the competitive bidding process, which in turn may delayhas delayed awards of new contracts. The termination, expiration or failure to renew one or more of our contracts could cause us to lose substantial revenue, which could have an adverse effect on our ability to win or renew other contracts or pursue growth initiatives. We cannot assure that new or renewed contracts will contain terms that are as favorable as our current terms or will contemplate the same scope of products and services as our current contracts, and any less favorable contract terms or diminution in scope could negatively impact our results of operations, cash flows and financial condition. For additional

45



information regarding the potential expiration dates of certain of our more significant Lottery contracts, see the table in “Lottery Segment” in Part I, Item 1 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K.

We are also required by certain of our customers to provide surety or performance bonds in connection with our contracts. As of March 31,June 30, 2020, we had $261$257 million of outstanding performance bonds. We cannot assure that we will continue to be able to obtain surety or performance bonds on commercially reasonable terms or at all. Our inability to provide such bonds would materially and adversely affect our ability to renew existing, or obtain new, Lottery contracts.

A substantial portion of our Gaming revenue depends on repeat customers. In certain regions, our business may be concentrated with a small number of customers, such as our U.K. LBO business, and during the second quarter of 2018, we signed a new up to seven-year agreement with Ladbrokes Coral Group (which was acquired by GVC Holdings PLC in March 2018) to continue to supply terminals, content and related services, which represent a significant portion of our U.K. LBO business. We cannot assure that our current contracts will be extended or that we will be awarded new contracts.

Given the increased competition in the sports wagering landscape due to the 2018 Supreme Court decision overturning PASPA, it is crucial that we remain innovative in this field in order to preserve our first-mover advantage, maintain current contracts and gain new contracts.

We have incurred, and may continue to incur, restructuring costs, the benefits of which are unpredictable and may not be achieved.

In the past, we have implemented various business improvement, optimization and restructuring initiatives in an effort to streamline our organization, leverage our resources more efficiently, and reduce our operating costs. These initiatives encompassed a combination of headcount reductions, facilities streamlining, and reductions in other operating costs. We have engaged, and may continue to engage, in similar or additional restructuring initiatives, including in response to the COVID-19 pandemic and in the future. Because we are not able to predict with certainty when we will reorganize portions of our business, we cannot predict the extent, timing and magnitude of additional restructuring charges. We may also not realize the anticipated reduction in operating costs.

We may incur additional impairment charges.

52



We review our amortizable intangible assets for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. We test goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment at least annually. Factors that may indicate a change in circumstances, such that the carrying value of our goodwill, amortizable intangible assets or other non-amortizing assets may not be recoverable, include a decline in our stock price and market capitalization, reduced future cash flow estimates, and slower growth rates in industry segments in which we participate. We may be required to record a significant charge in our consolidated financial statements during the period in which any impairment of our goodwill or intangible assets is determined, which would negatively affect our results of operations. For example, during the first quarter of 2020 we recorded a charge of $54 million, in 2016 we recorded a charge of $69 million and in 2015 we recorded charges of $935 million and $68 million for the impairment of goodwill. In light of the COVID-19 pandemic and the resulting unfavorable social, political, economic and financial conditions, during the first quarter of 2020 we performed an interim goodwill impairment assessment, which resulted in a $54 million goodwill impairment charge for our legacy U.K. Gaming reporting unit further discussed below. For all of our other reporting units, we concluded that as of March 31,June 30, 2020 it was not more likely than not that the fair value of these reporting units is below their carrying values and that the COVID-19 disruptions do not trigger an impairment. However, this could change in the future depending on prevailing conditions that could result in additional impairment charges. For more information on the assessment and the goodwill impairment charge, see section captioned “Goodwill Impairment Assessment Update- COVID-19 Impact” in Item 2. “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and Note 8.

As discussed above and further detailed in Note 8, the COVID-19 disruptions resulted in the widespread closures of LBO shops across the U.K., which, along with global economic uncertainty, contributed to further deterioration in business conditions from our 2019 annual goodwill test date, which resulted in a goodwill impairment charge of $54 million during the first quarter of 2020. Any future adverse changes to our projections, could negatively impact the recoverability of the remaining carrying value of our goodwill and other assets for our legacy U.K. Gaming reporting unit, which might result in additional material impairment charges.

We believe there to be an elevated risk of goodwill impairment for the unimpaired Gaming segment reporting units if the adverse impact of the COVID-19 disruptions or overall recovery of the casino industry globally sustains over an extended period of time. The remaining goodwill balance for our legacy U.K. Gaming reporting unit as of March 31,June 30, 2020 was $109 million.$115 million. Any future adverse changes in projections for future operating results or other key assumptions, such as projected

46



revenue, profit margin, capital expenditures or cash flows associated with investments included in our estimation of fair value for our legacy U.K. Gaming reporting unit could lead to additional future goodwill impairments, which could be material.
Moreover, application of the goodwill impairment test requires judgment, including the identification of reporting units, assignment of assets and liabilities to reporting units, assignment of goodwill to reporting units, and determination of the fair value of each reporting unit. We cannot predict the occurrence of impairments, and we cannot assure that we will not have to record additional impairment charges in the future.

We depend on our suppliers and contract manufacturers, and any failure of these parties to meet our performance and quality standards or requirements could cause us to incur additional costs or lose customers.

Our production of instant lottery products, in particular, depends upon a continuous supply of raw materials, supplies, power and natural resources. Our operating results could be adversely affected by an interruption or cessation in the supply of these items or a serious quality assurance lapse, including as a result of the insolvency of any of our key suppliers.
Similarly, the operation of our instant ticket printing presses and the manufacture and maintenance of our gaming machines and gaming and lottery systems are dependent upon a regular and continuous supply of raw materials and components, many of which are manufactured or produced outside of the U.S. Certain of the components we use are customized for our products. The assembly of certain of our products and other hardware is performed by third parties. Any interruption or cessation in the supply of these items or services or any material quality assurance lapse with respect thereto could materially adversely affect our ability to fulfill customer orders, results of operations, cash flows and financial condition. We may be unable to find adequate replacements for our suppliers within a reasonable time frame, on favorable commercial terms or at all. The impact of the foregoing may be magnified as we continue to seek to streamline our gaming supply chain by reducing the number of our suppliers. Further, manufacturing costs may unexpectedly increase and we may not be able to successfully recover any or all of such cost increases.
In our Lottery systems business, we transmit certain wagering data using cellular technology and satellite transponders, generally pursuant to long- term contracts. The technical failure of any of these cellular or satellite services would require us to obtain other communication services, including other cellular or satellite access. In some cases, we employ backup systems to limit our exposure in the event of such a failure. While these networks are inherently highly redundant, we cannot assure access to such other cellular services or satellites or, if available, the ability to obtain the use of such other cellular services or satellites

53



on favorable terms or in a timely manner. While cellular and satellite failures are infrequent, the operation of each is outside of our control.

In addition, in all of our businesses, we rely upon a number of significant third-party suppliers and vendors delivering parts, equipment and services on schedule in order for us to meet our contractual commitments. Furthermore, we outsource the manufacturing of certain of our sub-assemblies to third parties in the U.S., Europe, Central America and Asia. The willingness of such third parties to provide their services to us may be affected by various factors. Changes in law or regulation in any jurisdiction in which we operate may make the provision of key services to us unlawful in such jurisdictions. To the extent that third parties are unwilling or unable to provide services to us, this may have an adverse impact on our operations, financial performance and prospects. Failure of these third parties to meet their delivery commitments could result in us being in breach of, and subsequently losing, the affected customer orders, which loss could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, cash flows and financial condition. We rely on network and/or telecommunications services for certain of our products. For instance, any disruption to our network or telecommunications could impact our linked or networked games, which could reduce our revenue.

In our Digital sports business, we rely on providers of third party sports data feeds. The outbreak of COVID-19 has resulted in the suspension or cancellation of the majority of sporting events which has and could continue to negatively impact the financial condition of our sportsbook customers, their ability to purchase development and other services, their risk of payment default, or their spending levels as they seek to reduce costs, each of which could negatively impact our Digital business revenue.

In our Lottery, SciPlay and Digital businesses, we often rely on third-party data center providers to, among other things, host our remote game servers. Our Lottery, SciPlay and Digital businesses could be adversely impacted by breaches of or disruptions to these third-party data centers, including through disruptions in our RMG and lottery businesses, potential service level penalties with respect to our customers, reputational harm, the disclosure of proprietary information or the information of our customers or the theft of our or our customers assets, and to the extent any such data center provider was unable or unwilling to continue to provide services to us.

In certain regions, we enter into agreements with local distributors for the distribution of our land-based gaming products to one or more customers. Changes to these distributor relationships, including modification or termination of our agreements or difficulties with any such distributor could prevent us from delivering products or services to our customers on a timely basis, or at all, and could negatively impact our business. Additionally, the outbreak of COVID-19 and any resulting

47



unfavorable social, political and economic conditions have negatively impacted our suppliers and contract manufacturers in varied ways in different communities, which could lead to interruption or cessation of services provided to us. For more information on the impact of the outbreak of COVID-19, see the risk factor captioned “The recent COVID-19 pandemic and similar health epidemics, contagious disease outbreaks and public perception thereof, could significantly disrupt our operations and adversely affect our business, results of operations, cash flows or financial condition.”

We depend on our key employees and rely on skilled employees with creative and technical backgrounds.

We depend on the continued performance of our executive officers and key personnel, including Barry Cottle, our President and Chief Executive Officer. Our ability to recruit and retain our key employees and skilled technical workers has been impaired due to the recent COVID-19 pandemic (see Note 1). If we lose the services of any of our executive officers or key personnel and cannot find suitable replacements for such persons in a timely manner, it could have an adverse impact on our business. Our ability to expand is dependent on our ability to recruit and retain talented employees in the U.S. and internationally who are capable of leading our employees to achieve our strategic objectives.

We also rely on our highly skilled, technically trained and creative employees to develop new technologies and create innovative products. Such employees, particularly game designers, engineers and project managers with desirable skill sets are in high demand, and we devote significant resources to identifying, hiring, training, successfully integrating and retaining these employees. A lack of skilled technical workers could delay or negatively impact our business plans, ability to compete, results of operations, cash flows and financial condition.

Our level of indebtedness could adversely affect our results of operations, cash flows and financial condition.

We are a highly leveraged company. As of December 31, 2019 and March 31,June 30, 2020, we had total indebtedness of $8,725 million and $8,665$9,153 million, respectively, consisting primarily of borrowings under our credit agreement, Senior Notes and 2021 Notes, net of unamortized discounts and deferred financing costs. As of March 31,June 30, 2020, our total available liquidity (excluding our SciPlay business segment) was $684$637 million, which included $483$3 million of undrawn revolving credit facility availability. On April 9, 2020, we borrowed $480 millionavailability under SGI’s revolving credit facility, which was substantiallyfacility. On July 1, 2020, we completed the issuance of $550 million in aggregate principal amount of 2025 Unsecured Notes and on July 17, 2020 we redeemed all $341 million of the remaining availability thereunder.our 2021 Notes (see Note 11).

54



Our level of indebtedness could affect our ability to obtain financing or refinance existing indebtedness; require us to dedicate a significant portion of our cash flow from operations to interest and principal payments on our indebtedness, thereby reducing the availability of cash flow to fund working capital, capital expenditures and other general corporate purposes; increase our vulnerability to adverse general economic, industry or competitive developments or conditions; and limit our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our businesses and the industries in which we operate or in pursuing our strategic objectives. In addition, we are exposed to the risk of higher interest rates as a significant portion of our borrowings are at variable rates of interest. If interest rates increase, the interest payment obligations under our non-hedged variable rate indebtedness would increase even if the amount borrowed remained the same, and our results of operations, cash flows and financial condition would be negatively impacted. All of these factors became more severe given the unfavorable economic conditions and uncertainties and decrease in discretionary spending and consumer travel as a result of the outbreak of COVID-19 and could place us at a competitive disadvantage compared to competitors that may have less debt than we do.

Certain of our variable rate debt, including debt under our credit agreement and the SciPlay Revolver, relies on LIBOR as a benchmark for establishing the interest rate. The U.K. Financial Conduct Authority announced in 2017 that it intends to phase out LIBOR by the end of 2021. In addition, other regulators have suggested reforming or replacing other benchmark rates. The discontinuation, reform or replacement of LIBOR or any other benchmark rates may have an unpredictable impact on contractual mechanics in the credit markets or cause disruption to the broader financial markets. Uncertainty as to the nature of such potential discontinuation, reform or replacement may negatively impact the cost of our variable rate debt. We may in the future pursue amendments to the agreements underlying this debt to provide for a transition mechanism or other reference rate in anticipation of LIBOR’s discontinuation, but we may not be able to reach agreement with our lenders on any such amendments. As a result, additional financing to replace our LIBOR-based debt may be unavailable, more expensive or restricted by the terms of our outstanding indebtedness.

We may not have sufficient cash flows from operating activities, cash on hand and available borrowings under our credit agreement to finance required capital expenditures under new contracts and meet our other cash needs or satisfy our minimum liquidity covenant. These obligations require a significant amount of cash, which would reduce our available liquidity.

Our Gaming operations and Lottery systems businesses generally require significant upfront capital expenditures for gaming machine or lottery terminal assembly, software customization and implementation, systems and equipment installation and telecommunications configuration. In connection with a renewal or bid of a Gaming operations or Lottery systems contract,

48



a customer may seek to obtain new equipment or impose new service requirements, which may require additional capital expenditures in order to retain or win the contract. In connection with the renewal of LNS’ exclusive concession to operate the Italian instant games lottery, we paid our pro rata share, or €160 million (€10 million paid in 2017 and the remaining €150 million paid in 2018), of the €800 million payment LNS was required to make to obtain the concession.

Historically, we have funded these upfront costs through cash flows generated from operations, available cash on hand and borrowings under our credit agreement. In addition, we have seen an increase in lottery RFPs, some involving PMAs, which include economic terms that expose us to increased risk, such as requiring the guarantee of specific income thresholds or significant upfront payments. In addition, to the extent we are compensated under any of our contractual arrangements based on a share of our customers’ revenue rather than payment for our expenses and services, we may incur upfront costs (which may be significant) prior to receipt of any revenue under such arrangements. Our ability to generate revenue and to continue to procure new contracts will depend on, among other things, our then present liquidity levels or our ability to obtain additional financing on commercially reasonable terms, which are negatively affected by the recent COVID-19 pandemic.

If we do not have adequate liquidity or are unable to obtain financing for these upfront costs and other cash needs on favorable terms or at all, we may not be able to bid on certain contracts, which could result in our losing business or restrict our ability to grow, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, cash flows and financial condition. Moreover, we may not realize the return on investment that we anticipate on new or renewed contracts due to a variety of factors, including lower than anticipated retail sales or amounts wagered, higher than anticipated capital or operating expenses and unanticipated regulatory developments or litigation. We may not have adequate liquidity to pursue other aspects of our strategy, including bringing our products and services to new customers or new or underpenetrated geographies (including through equity investments) or pursuing strategic acquisitions. In the event we pursue significant acquisitions or other expansion opportunities, conduct significant repurchases of our outstanding securities, or refinance or repay existing debt, we may need to raise additional capital either through the public or private issuance of equity or debt securities or through additional borrowings under our existing financing arrangements, which sources of funds may not necessarily be available on terms acceptable to us, if at all, especially under the current unfavorable economic conditions and uncertainties as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.

On May 8, 2020, the Company and the requisite lenders under SGI’s revolving credit facility entered into the Credit Agreement Amendment that, among other things, imposes a minimum liquidity requirement (excluding SciPlay) of at least $275

55



$275 million during the Covenant Relief Period with a potential step-down to at least $200 million for April and May 2021, and further restricts our ability to incur indebtedness and liens, make restricted payments and investments and prepay junior indebtedness during the Covenant Relief Period, subject to certain exceptions and further subject, in some instances, to maintaining minimum liquidity (excluding SciPlay) of at least $400 million. See Note 1 for additional details regarding the Credit Agreement Amendment. Therefore, even if we do have liquidity available to support our current cash needs, we may not be able to access that liquidity while still remaining in compliance with the minimum liquidity covenant. We cannot assure that we will be granted waivers or amendments to the minimum liquidity covenant, or will be able to obtain additional liquidity to cure such a violation, if for any reason we are unable to comply with that obligation.

We may not have sufficient cash flows from operating activities to service all of our indebtedness and other obligations, and may be forced to take other actions to satisfy our obligations, which may not be successful.

Our ability to make payments on and to refinance our indebtedness and other obligations depends on our results of operations, cash flows and financial condition, which in turn are subject to general economic, financial, competitive, legislative, regulatory and other factors that are beyond our control. We may not be able to maintain a level of cash flows from operating activities sufficient to permit us to pay the principal, premium, if any, and interest on our indebtedness and our other obligations. Our results of operations and general economic and financial conditions have been negatively affected by the recent COVID-19 pandemic, which made it more difficult for us to meet our debt obligations from cash flows from operating activities.

We are required to make scheduled payments of principal on the term loans borrowed under our credit agreement, and our credit agreement requires that a portion of our excess cash flow be applied to prepay amounts borrowed under our credit agreement. We are also required to repay the entire principal amount of our Senior Notes and 2021 Notes at their maturity (see Note 11). We have also, from time to time, repurchased or otherwise retired or refinanced our debt, through our subsidiaries or otherwise and may continue to do so in the future. Such activities, if any, will depend on prevailing market conditions, contractual restrictions and other factors, and the amounts involved may or may not be material. If we need to refinance all or part of our indebtedness at or before maturity, we cannot assure that we will be able to obtain new financing or to refinance any of our indebtedness on commercially reasonable terms or at all, especially under the current unfavorable economic conditions and uncertainties as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.


49



Our lenders, including the lenders participating in our revolving credit facility under our credit agreement or in the SciPlay Revolver, may become insolvent or tighten their lending standards, which could make it more difficult for us to borrow under our revolving credit facility or the SciPlay Revolver or to obtain other financing on favorable terms or at all. Our results of operations, cash flows and financial condition would be adversely affected if we were unable to draw funds under our revolving credit facility or the SciPlay Revolver because of a lender default or to obtain other cost-effective financing. Any default by a lender in its obligation to fund its commitment under our revolving credit facility or the SciPlay Revolver (or its participation in letters of credit) could limit our liquidity to the extent of the defaulting lender’s commitment. If we are unable to generate sufficient cash flow in the future to meet our commitments, we will be required to adopt one or more alternatives, such as refinancing or restructuring our indebtedness, selling material assets or operations or seeking to raise additional debt or equity capital. We cannot assure that any of these actions could be completed on a timely basis or on satisfactory terms or at all, or that these actions would enable us to continue to satisfy our capital requirements. Moreover, our existing debt agreements contain, and our future debt agreements may contain, restrictive covenants that may prohibit us from adopting these alternatives. Our failure to comply with these covenants could result in an event of default which, if not cured or waived, could result in the acceleration of all of our debt.

Agreements governing our indebtedness impose certain restrictions that may affect our ability to operate our business. Failure to comply with any of these restrictions could result in the acceleration of the maturity of our indebtedness and require us to make payments on our indebtedness. Were this to occur, we would not have sufficient cash to pay our accelerated indebtedness.

Agreements governing our indebtedness, including our credit agreement and the SciPlay Revolver and the indentures governing our Senior Notes and 2021 Notes, impose, and future financing agreements are likely to impose, operating and financial restrictions on our activities that may adversely affect our ability to finance future operations or capital needs or to engage in new business activities. Subject to certain exceptions, our credit facilities and/or indentures restrict our ability to, among other things:

declare dividends or redeem or repurchase capital stock;

prepay, redeem or purchase other debt;

incur liens;

make loans, guarantees, acquisitions and investments;

56



incur additional indebtedness;

engage in sale and leaseback transactions;

amend or otherwise alter debt and other material agreements;

engage in mergers, acquisitions or asset sales;

engage in transactions with affiliates;

enter into arrangements that would prohibit us from granting liens or restrict our subsidiaries’ ability to pay dividends, make loans or transfer assets; and

alter the business we conduct.

In addition, prior to the Credit Agreement Amendment, the SGI credit agreement contained a covenant that was tested at the end of each fiscal quarter and required us to not exceed a maximum consolidated net first lien leverage ratio of 5.00x Consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the credit agreement), with this ratio stepping down to 4.75x beginning with the fiscal quarter endedending December 31, 2020 and 4.50x beginning with the fiscal quarter endedending December 31, 2021. On May 8, 2020, SGC and the requisite lenders entered into the Credit Agreement Amendment to (a) implement a financial covenant relief period through the end of the first quarter ending March 31, 2021 (the “Covenant Relief Period”), as a result of which SGI is not required to maintain compliance with the consolidated net first lien leverage ratio covenant during the Covenant Relief Period, (b) reset the consolidated net first lien leverage ratio covenant following the Covenant Relief Period, (c) impose a minimum liquidity requirement (excluding SciPlay) of at least $275 million during the Covenant Relief Period, with a potential step-down to at least $200 million for April and May 2021, (d) further restrict our ability to incur indebtedness and liens, make restricted payments and investments and prepay junior indebtedness during the Covenant Relief Period, subject to certain exceptions and further subject in some instances to maintaining minimum liquidity (excluding SciPlay) of at least $400 million and (e)

establish a LIBOR floor of 0.500% on borrowings under the revolving credit facility during the Covenant Relief Period. The revised consolidated net first lien leverage ratio will be 6.00x Consolidated EBITDA beginning with the fiscal quarter ending June 30, 2021, stepping down as follows (1) 5.75x beginning with the fourth quarter of 2021, (2) 5.25x beginning with the second quarter of 2022, (3) 4.75x beginning with the fourth quarter of 2022 and (4) 4.50x beginning with the second quarter of 2023 and thereafter. The revised consolidated net first lien leverage ratio will be based on Consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the Credit Agreement Amendment) as follows: (1) for the testing period ending June 30, 2021, Consolidated EBITDA for the fiscal quarter ending June 30, 2021 multiplied by 4, (2) for the testing period ending September 30, 2021, Consolidated EBITDA for the fiscal quarters ending June 30, 2021 and September 30, 2021 multiplied by 2, (3) for the testing period ending December 31, 2021, Consolidated EBITDA for the fiscal quarters ending June 30, 2021, September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2021 multiplied by 4/3 and (4) for all subsequent testing periods, Consolidated EBITDA for the previous twelve months including the quarter for the which the test is performed. Under the SciPlay Revolver, SciPlay is required to maintain a maximum total net leverage ratio not to exceed 2.50x and maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of no less than 4.00x. Future financing arrangements may impose similar requirements.

Various risks, uncertainties and events beyond our control could affect our ability to comply with these covenants. The recent outbreak of COVID-19 has had, and will continue to have, a negative effect on us, especially in our Gaming and Lottery businesses. Accordingly, we cannot assure that we will continue to maintain liquidity sufficient to satisfy our current obligations or comply with the minimum liquidity requirement set forth in SGC’s credit agreement or return to compliance with the consolidated net first lien leverage ratio covenant following the Covenant Relief Period.

We also cannot assure that we will be granted waivers or amendments to the agreements governing our indebtedness if for any reason we are unable to comply with these obligations or that we will be able to refinance our debt on terms acceptable to us, or at all.
Certain holders of our common stock exert significant influence over us and may make decisions that conflict with the interests of other stockholders.
In August 2004, MacAndrews & Forbes Incorporated (formerly known as MacAndrews & Forbes Holdings Inc. and, together with its affiliates, referred to herein as “M&F”) was issued approximately 25% of our then outstanding Class A common stock in connection with its conversion of our then outstanding Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. As disclosed in an amendment to its beneficial ownership report on Schedule 13D (“Schedule 13D Amendment”) filed with the SEC on July 14, 2020, M&F beneficially owned 36,802,842 shares of our outstanding common stock, or approximately 39.0% of our outstanding common stock as of such date. Pursuant to a stockholders’ agreement with us, which we originally entered into with holders of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, such holder is entitled to appoint up to four members of our Board of Directors and certain actions of our Company require the approval of such holder. As a result, M&F has the ability to exert significant influence over our business and may make decisions with which other stockholders may disagree, including, among

other things, delaying, discouraging or preventing a change of control of our Company or a potential merger, consolidation, tender offer, takeover or other business combination.
On July 14, 2020, M&F filed the Schedule 13D Amendment announcing that it had determined to explore a possible sale of our common stock beneficially owned by M&F and that, as of the date of such filing, no specific or definitive plan or proposal had been formulated and that there can be no assurance that any transaction will occur or as to the terms of any such transaction.
