In general, we believe there is less publicly available information concerning the international gaming, social and digital gaming industries than the same industries in the U.S.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited, amounts in USD, table amounts in millions, except per share amounts)

(1) Description of the Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Description of the Business

We are a leading cross-platform global game company with a focus on content and digital markets. Our portfolio of revenue-generating activities in our continuing operations primarily includes supplying game content and gaming machines, CMSs and table game products and services to licensed gaming entities; providing social casino and other mobile games to retail customers, including casual gaming; and providing a comprehensive suite of digital RMG, distribution platforms, content, products and services to various gaming entities. Our portfolio of revenue-generating activities in the discontinued operations primarily ~~includes~~has included providing instant and draw‑based lottery products, lottery systems and lottery content and services to lottery operators along with providing sports wagering solutions to various gaming entities.

We report our results of continuing operations in 3 business segments—Gaming, SciPlay and iGaming—representing our different products and services. Unless otherwise noted, amounts and disclosures included herein relate to our continuing operations.

Effective April 28, 2022, we changed our name to Light & Wonder, Inc. This change is in part due to the sale of the Lottery Business that will continue to use ~~the~~our previous name, Scientific Games, ~~name~~ and also to align with our vision of becoming the leading cross-platform global game company.

On September 27, 2021, we entered into a definitive agreement to sell our Sports Betting ~~business~~Business to Endeavor Group Holdings, Inc. (“Endeavor”) in a cash and stock transaction. On June 30, 2022, we entered into an amendment to the agreement, under which the cash consideration was reduced from $1,000 million to $750 million and the stock consideration was reduced from approximately 7.6 million shares of Endeavor Class A common stock (valued at approximately $200 million as of the date of the purchase agreement) to approximately 2.3 million shares of Endeavor Class A common stock (valued at approximately $50 million as of the date of the amendment and based on the volume weighted average price of Endeavor Class A common stock in the twenty days before the date of the amendment). The amendment additionally waives the closing condition requiring regulatory approval by the Nevada Gaming Control Board and extends the agreement date to December 30, 2022 if certain conditions to closing are not met by September 27, 2022. The sale of the Sports Betting Business is expected to be completed in the third quarter of 2022, subject to applicable regulatory approvals and other customary conditions.

~~On April 4,~~During the second quarter of 2022, we completed the previously announced divestiture of the Lottery Business and received ~~$5.6~~$5.7 billion in gross cash proceeds. This excludes the Austria Business, for which we are awaiting regulatory approval in Austria, which approval is expected to be received and the transaction to be completed by the end of the second quarter of 2022, which will provide an additional $104 million of expected gross cash proceeds.

We have reflected the financial results of these businesses as discontinued operations in our consolidated statements of operations and reflected the assets and liabilities of these businesses as held for sale in our consolidated balance sheets, for all periods ~~presented.~~presented and until the completion of disposition of these businesses. Refer to Note 2 for further information.

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of L&W, 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 L&W and its management, we have made all adjustments necessary to present fairly our consolidated financial position, results of operations, comprehensive ~~loss~~income (loss) and cash flows for the periods presented. Such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our 2021 10-K. Interim results of operations are not necessarily indicative of results of operations to be expected for a full year.

Significant Accounting Policies

There have been no changes to our significant accounting policies described within the Notes of our 2021 10-K.

Computation of Basic and Diluted Net Income ~~(Loss) Per Share~~ Attributable to L&W Per Share

Basic and diluted net income ~~(loss)~~ attributable to L&W per share is based upon net income ~~(loss)~~ attributable to L&W divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the effect of

the assumed exercise of stock options and RSUs only in the periods in which such effect would have been ~~dilutive.~~dilutive to net income from continuing operations.

Basic and diluted net ~~loss~~income attributable to L&W per share were the same for all periods presented as all common stock equivalents would be anti-dilutive. We ~~exclud~~edexcluded 2 million of stock options and 2 million of RSUs outstanding as of June 30, 2022 from the diluted weighted-average common shares

outstanding for the three and six months ended ~~March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.~~June 30, 2022. We excluded 2 million of stock options and 3 million of RSUs outstanding as of June 30, 2021 from the calculation of diluted weighted-average common shares outstanding for the three and six months ended ~~March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.~~June 30, 2021.

Acquisitions

SciPlay Acquisition of Alictus Yazilim Anonim Şirketi (“Alictus”)

On March 1, 2022, SciPlay acquired 80% of all issued and outstanding share capital of privately held Alictus, a Turkey-based hyper-casual game studio for approximately $106 million cash consideration, net of cash acquired. The remaining 20% will be acquired ratably for potential additional consideration payable annually based upon the achievement of specified revenue and earnings targets by Alictus during each of the five years following the acquisition date. Any future payments associated with the acquisition of the remaining 20% will represent a redeemable non-controlling interest, with a minimum payout of $0 million and a maximum payout of $200 million. The Alictus acquisition expands SciPlay’s business in the casual gaming market, growing its game pipeline and diversifying its revenue streams as it advances its strategy to be a diversified global game developer.

Playzido Limited (“Playzido”)

In April 2022, we acquired Playzido, a dynamic content creation platform provider and game supplier, which is expected to accelerate the pace at which we can partner with game studios and operators to expand our iGaming content offering.

We accounted for ~~this acquisition~~these acquisitions using the acquisition method of accounting, ~~whereby~~allocating the total ~~purchase price was allocated~~consideration transferred to acquired tangible and intangible assets ~~acquired~~ and assumed liabilities ~~assumed~~ based on ~~respective~~ estimated fair values. The estimated fair values of the acquired assets, assumed liabilities and resulting goodwill are subject to adjustment as we finalize our purchase price accounting. The following table summarizes an aggregate disclosure related to the ~~acquisition of Alictus~~acquisitions above and is based on the preliminary purchase price allocation expected to be finalized by the fourth quarter of 2022:

																							(1) Exclusive of $6 million acquired in short term investments.
(2) The fair value of the redeemable non-controlling interest was determined using a Monte Carlo simulation model with a discount rate ranging between 2% and 3% and primarily based on reaching certain revenue and earnings-based metrics, with a maximum payout of up to $200 million.
(3) Intangible assets primarily consist of intellectual property consisting of games technology and content and trade name. The fair value of these intangible assets was determined using an income approach method and level 3 inputs in the hierarchy as established by ASC 820. The discount rate used in the valuation analysis was 18%, and the royalty rate used was 1% for the valuation of the “Alictus” trade name and 21% for the valuation of the acquired game content and related technology.
(4) The factors contributing to the recognition of acquisition goodwill are based on game portfolio diversification, expected synergies, assembled workforce and other strategic benefits. None of the resultant goodwill is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes.

The revenue and ~~earning~~earnings associated with the above ~~acquisition~~acquisitions are immaterial to our current and historical consolidated financial statements.

~~In April 2022, we acquired Playzido, which will expand our iGaming content offering.~~

New Accounting Guidance - Not Yet Adopted

The FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04 and subsequently ASU No. 2021-01, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) in March 2020 and January 2021, respectively. The new guidance provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying U.S. GAAP to contract modifications and hedging relationships, including derivative instruments impacted by changes in the interest rates used for discounting cash flows for computing variable margin settlements, subject to meeting certain criteria, that reference LIBOR or other reference rates expected to be discontinued by June 2023. The ASUs establish certain contract modification principles that entities can apply in other areas that may be affected by reference rate reform and certain elective hedge accounting expedients and exceptions. The ASUs may be applied prospectively. Based on our preliminary assessment completed to date, we do not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.

We do not expect that any other recently issued accounting guidance will have a significant effect on our consolidated financial statements.

(2) Discontinued Operations

~~On April 4,~~During the second quarter of 2022, we completed the previously announced divestiture of the Lottery Business, ~~(excluding the Austria Business as described in Note 1), for which we~~ received ~~$5.6~~$5.7 billion in gross cash ~~proceeds.~~proceeds and recorded a pre-tax gain on sale of the Lottery Business of $4.6 billion.

Contract Liabilities and Other Disclosures

The following table summarizes the activity in our contract liabilities for the reporting period:


	~~Three~~Six Months Ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022


Contract liability balance, beginning of period(1)	$	37
Liabilities recognized during the period	56

Contract liability balance, end of period(1)	$	3732

(1) Contract liabilities are included within Accrued liabilities and Other long-term liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets.

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. The following table summarizes our balances in these accounts for the periods indicated (other than contract liabilities disclosed above):


		Receivables		Contract Assets(1)			Receivables		Contract Assets(1)
Beginning of period balance	Beginning of period balance	$	440	$	19	Beginning of period balance	$	440	$	19

(4) Business Segments

We report our operations in 3 business segments—Gaming, SciPlay and iGaming—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 3 and 4 in our 2021 10-K.

In evaluating financial performance, our Chief Operating Decision Maker focuses on AEBITDA as management’s primary segment measure of profit or loss, which is described in footnote (2) to the below table. The accounting policies of our business segments are the same as those described within the Notes in our 2021 10-K. The following tables present our segment information:

~~At March 31,~~As of June 30, 2022, 3%5% of our total receivables, net, were past due by over 90 days compared to 13% atas of December 31, 2021.

Credit Quality of Receivables

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 customers with significant concentrations (generally deemed to be exceeding 10%) of our receivables with terms longer than one year are primarily in the Latin America region (“LATAM”) and are primarily comprised of Mexico, Peru and Argentina. The following table summarizes our LATAM receivables:


		As of March 31, 2022						As of June 30, 2022
		Total		Current or Not Yet Due		Balances Over 90 days Past Due				Total		Current or Not Yet Due		Balances Over 90 days Past Due
Receivables	Receivables	$	91	$	40	$	51		Receivables	$	78	$	40	$	38

Receivables, net	Receivables, net	$	63	$	26	$	37		Receivables, net	$	53	$	26	$	27

We continuously review receivables and as information concerning credit quality arise, reassess our expectations of future losses and record an incremental reserve if warranted at that time. Our current allowance for credit losses represents our current expectation of credit losses; however future expectations could change as international unrest or other macro-economic factors impact the financial stability of our customers.

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, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the fair value of receivables, net, approximated the carrying value due to contractual terms of receivables generally being less than 24 months.

(7) Inventories

April 2022 Refinancing

On April 14, 2022, we completed a series of refinancing transactions, which, combined with other principal payments on the SGI Term Loan B-5 and SGI ~~revolver~~Revolver in April 2022, reduced the outstanding face value of our debt by $4,957 million, from $8,910 million as of March 31, 2022 to $3,953 million immediately after the completion of these transactions.

As a part of these transactions, we entered into the new credit agreements, which contains the following debt facilities:

•$2,200 million new term loan facility maturing in April 2029. The new term loan facility will bear interest at either (i) Adjusted Term SOFR Rate (as defined in the credit agreement) plus 3.00% per annum or (ii) a base rate plus 2.00% per annum. The new term loan facility amortizes in quarterly installments in aggregate amounts of equal to 1.00% of the original principal amount per year; and

•$750 million revolving credit facility maturing in April 2027. The new revolving credit facility will bear interest at either (i) Adjusted Term SOFR Rate (or an alternative benchmark rate for non-US dollar borrowings) plus 2.00% per annum or (ii) a base rate plus 1.00% per annum, with one 0.25% per annum step-up and one 0.25% per annum step-down based on SGI’s first lien net leverage ratio at the end of future fiscal quarters.

With the issuance of the new term loan facility and using the proceeds from the ~~divestitures~~divestiture of the Lottery Business (see Note 1), we retired and redeemed the following outstanding debt and paid accrued and unpaid interest thereon plus related premiums, fees and expenses:

The new credit facilities are subject to customary affirmative covenants and negative covenants as well as a financial covenant. The financial covenant is solely for the benefit of the new revolving facility, is tested at the end of each fiscal quarter if the outstanding borrowings (excluding up to $5 million of undrawn letters of credit and any cash collateralized letters of credit) under the new revolving facility exceed 30% of the commitments under the new revolving facility, and requires that the Company not be in excess of a maximum consolidated net first lien leverage ratio of 4.50:1.00.

(1) We entered into certain cross-currency interest rate swap agreements to achieve more attractive interest rates by effectively converting $460 million of the 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%. These cross-currency swaps have been designated as a hedge of our net investment in certain subsidiaries.
(2) We designated a portion of our 2026 Secured Euro Notes as a net investment non-derivative hedge of our investments in certain of our international subsidiaries that use the Euro as their functional currency in order to reduce the volatility in our operating results caused by the change in foreign currency exchange rates of the Euro relative to the U.S. Dollar (see Note 12 for additional information). The total change in the face value of the 2026 Secured Euro Notes and 2026 Unsecured Euro Notes due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates since the issuance was a reduction of $73 million, of which a gain of $7 million was recognized on remeasurement of debt in the Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three months ended March 31, 2022.
(3) Primarily comprised of certain revenue transactions presented as debt in accordance with ASC 470.
(4) Fair value of our fixed rate and variable interest rate debt is classified within Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy and has been calculated based on the quoted market prices of our securities.

We were in compliance with the financial covenants under all debt agreements as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022 (for information regarding our financial covenants of all debt agreements, see Note 15 in our 2021 10-K).

Loss on Debt Refinancing Transactions

The following are components of the loss on debt financing transactions resulting from debt extinguishment and modification accounting for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022. No such transactions occurred during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021.

(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,~~and for the six months ended June 30, 2022, we held the following derivative instruments that were accounted for pursuant to ASC 815:

Interest Rate Swap Contracts

We used 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 were designated as cash flow hedges under ASC 815. We paid interest at a weighted-average fixed rate of 2.4418% and received interest at a variable rate equal to one-month LIBOR. The total notional amount of interest rate swaps was $800 million. These hedges matured in February 2022.

In April 2022, we entered into ~~the~~ new interest rate swap contracts ~~with $700 million notional amount~~ to hedge a portion of our interest expense associated with our variable rate debt to effectively fix the interest rate that we ~~will~~ pay. These interest rate swap contracts were designated as cash flow hedges under ASC 815. We pay interest at a weighted-average fixed rate of 2.8320% and receive interest at a variable rate equal to one-month CME Term SOFR. The total notional amount of interest rate swaps was $700 million as of June 30, 2022. These hedges mature in April 2027.

All gains and losses from these hedges were recorded in Other comprehensive income (loss) until the future underlying payment transactions occur. Any realized gains or losses resulting from the hedges were recognized (together with the hedged transaction) as Interest expense. We estimated 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 were 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:


		Three Months Ended March 31,				Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
		2022		2021				2022		2021		2022		2021

Interest expense recorded related to interest rate swap contracts	Interest expense recorded related to interest rate swap contracts	3		5			Interest expense recorded related to interest rate swap contracts	3		4		6		9

We do not expect to reclassify material amounts from Accumulated other comprehensive loss to interest expense in the next twelve months.

The following table shows the effect of interest rate swap contracts designated as cash flow hedges in the consolidated statements of operations:


		Three Months Ended March 31,				Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,

Cross-Currency Interest Rate Swaps

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~~used 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 iswas reported in Foreign currency translation 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~~were amortized and recorded to Interest expense. We ~~evaluate~~evaluated the effectiveness of our net investment hedge at the beginning of each quarter.

In April of 2022 and as a result of the April 2022 Refinancing, we settled our cross-currency interest rate swaps and received approximately $50 million in cash proceeds.

The following table shows the fair value of our hedges:

Net Investment Non-derivative Hedge — 2026 Secured Euro Notes

~~For~~As a result of the ~~first quarter~~April 2022 Refinancing described above, we redeemed all of ~~2022, we designated $208 million of our~~ 2026 Secured Euro Notes asand no longer have a designated 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 loss, and the remaining remeasurement change is recognized in (Loss) gain 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 Acquisition Consideration Liabilities

In connection with our acquisitions, we have recorded certain contingent consideration liabilities (including ~~the~~ redeemable non-controlling ~~interest related to Alictus)~~interest), of which the values are primarily based on reaching certain earnings-based metrics. The related liabilities were recorded at fair value on their respective acquisition dates as a part of the consideration transferred and are remeasured each reporting period (other than for ~~the~~ redeemable non-controlling interest, which is ~~remeasured~~measured based on its redemption value). The inputs used to measure the fair value of our liabilities are categorized as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.

~~Contingent~~The table below reconciles the change in the contingent acquisition consideration liabilities (including deferred purchase ~~price and redeemable non-controlling interest~~price) for ~~Alictus) as of March 31, 2022, are $72 million, of which $19 million is included in Accrued liabilities with~~ the ~~remainder included in Other long-term liabilities, with the increase primarily related to the Alictus acquisition described in Note 1.

Share Repurchase ~~Program~~Programs

As described in Note 17 within our 2021 10-K and in our Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on March 1, 2022, our Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program under which the Company is authorized to repurchase, from time to time through February 25, 2025, up to an aggregate amount of $750 million of our outstanding common stock over a three-year period. During the ~~first quarter of~~six months ended June 30, 2022, we repurchased ~~0.9~~3.7 million shares of common stock under the program at an aggregate cost of ~~$51~~$203 million and an average of ~~$59.10~~$55.39 per share.

On May 9, 2022, SciPlay’s Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program under which it is authorized to repurchase, from time to time through May 9, 2024, up to an aggregate amount of $60 million of its outstanding Class A common stock. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, SciPlay repurchased 0.5 million shares of Class A common stock under the program at an aggregate cost of $7 million and an average of $13.76 per share.

(14) Income Taxes

We consider new evidence (both positive and negative) at each reporting date that could affect our view of the future realization of deferred tax assets. We evaluate information such as historical financial results, historical taxable income, projected future taxable income, expected timing of the reversals of existing temporary differences and available prudent and feasible tax planning strategies in our analysis. Based on the available evidence, valuation allowances in certain U.S. and non-U.S. jurisdictions remain consistent as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022.

Our income tax expense (including discrete items) was $3$1 million and $4 million for ~~both of~~ the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022, respectively, and ~~March 31, 2021.~~$6 million and $9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively. In 2022, our effective tax rate differs from the U.S. statutory rate of 21% primarily as a result of not benefiting year to date losses in continuing operations in accordance with the intra-period tax expense/benefit allocation rules as generally prescribed under ASC 740-20. In all periods, we recorded tax expense relative to pre-tax earnings in jurisdictions without valuation allowances, including our 19% noncontrolling interest in SciPlay.

The divestiture of the Lottery Business is estimated to generate approximately $665 million of net cash taxes, after considering the utilization of tax attributes.

(15) Leases

Our total operating lease expense for ~~both of~~ the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022 was $4 million and ~~March 31,~~$10 million, respectively, and $5 million and $11 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, ~~was $6 million.~~respectively. The total amount of variable and short-term lease payments was immaterial for all periods presented.

As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022, we did not have material additional operating leases that have not yet commenced.

(16) Litigation

We are involved in various legal proceedings, which are described in Note 20 within our 2021 10-K. There have been no material changes to these matters since the 2021 10-K was filed with the SEC on March 1, 2022, 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 $27 million for all of our legal matters that were contingencies both as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

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 20 in our 2021 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 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.

Colombia litigation

Our subsidiary, SGI, owned a minority interest in Wintech de Colombia S.A., or Wintech (now liquidated), which formerly operated the Colombian national lottery under a contract with Empresa Colombiana de Recursos para la Salud, S.A. (together with its successors, “Ecosalud”), an agency of the Colombian government. The contract provided for a penalty against Wintech, SGI and the other shareholders of Wintech of up to $5.0 million if certain levels of lottery sales were not achieved. In addition, SGI delivered to Ecosalud a $4.0 million surety bond as a further guarantee of performance under the contract. Wintech started the instant lottery in Colombia but, due to difficulties beyond its control, including, among other factors, social and political unrest in Colombia, frequently interrupted telephone service and power outages, and competition from another lottery being operated in a province of Colombia that we believe was in violation of Wintech’s exclusive license from Ecosalud, the projected sales level was not met for the year ended June 30, 1993.

In 1993, Ecosalud issued a resolution declaring that the contract was in default. In 1994, Ecosalud issued a liquidation resolution asserting claims for compensation and damages against Wintech, SGI and other shareholders of Wintech for, among other things, realization of the full amount of the penalty, plus interest, and the amount of the bond. SGI filed separate actions opposing each resolution with the Tribunal Contencioso of Cundinamarca in Colombia (the “Tribunal”), which upheld both resolutions. SGI appealed each decision to the Council of State. In May 2012, the Council of State upheld the contract default resolution, which decision was notified to us in August 2012. In October 2013, the Council of State upheld the liquidation resolution, which decision was notified to us in December 2013.

In July 1996, Ecosalud filed a lawsuit against SGI in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Georgia asserting many of the same claims asserted in the Colombia proceedings, including breach of contract, and seeking damages. In March 1997, the District Court dismissed Ecosalud’s claims. Ecosalud appealed the decision to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit. The Court of Appeals affirmed the District Court’s decision in 1998.

In June 1999, Ecosalud filed a collection proceeding against SGI to enforce the liquidation resolution and recover the claimed damages. In May 2013, the Tribunal denied SGI’s merit defenses to the collection proceeding and issued an order of payment of approximately 90 billion Colombian pesos, or approximately $30.2 million, plus default interest (potentially accrued since 1994 at a 12% statutory interest rate). SGI filed an appeal to the Council of State, and on December 10, 2020, the Council of State issued a ruling affirming the Tribunal’s decision. On December 16, 2020, SGI filed a motion for clarification of the Council of State’s ruling, which was denied on April 15, 2021. On April 22, 2021, SGI filed a motion for reconsideration relating to that decision, which the Council of State denied on February 21, 2022. On May 24, 2022, the case was transferred from the Council of State to the Tribunal for further proceedings.

SGI believes it has various defenses, including on the merits, against Ecosalud’s claims. Although we believe these claims will not result in a material adverse effect on our consolidated results of operations, cash flows or financial position, it is not feasible to predict the final outcome, and we cannot assure that these claims will not ultimately be resolved adversely to us or result in material liability.

Tonkawa Tribe Matter

On September 3, 2020, the Tonkawa Tribe of Indians of Oklahoma d/b/a Tonkawa Enterprises filed a putative class action complaint in the United States District Court for the District of Nevada against SGC, Bally Technologies, Inc. and SG Gaming, f/k/a Bally Gaming, Inc. On October 5, 2020, the plaintiff filed a first amended complaint to add Cow Creek Band of Umpqua Tribe of Indians and the Umpqua Indian Development Corp., d/b/a Seven Feathers Casino as a plaintiff. On October 26, 2020, the plaintiffs filed a second amended complaint. In the complaint, the plaintiffs assert federal antitrust claims arising from the defendants’ procurement of particular U.S. patents. The plaintiffs allege that the defendants used those patents to create an allegedly illegal monopoly in the market for card shufflers sold or leased to regulated casinos in the United States. The plaintiffs seek to represent a putative class of all regulated United States casinos directly leasing or purchasing card shufflers from the defendants on or after April 1, 2009. The complaint seeks unspecified money damages, the award of plaintiff’s costs of suit, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expert fees, and the award of pre-judgment and post-judgment interest. On November 19, 2020, the defendants filed a motion to dismiss plaintiffs’ second amended complaint or, in the alternative, to compel arbitration of plaintiffs’ claims. On November 20, 2020, Plaintiffs filed a motion for partial summary judgment, seeking a finding that defendants are collaterally estopped from re-litigating issues litigated in the 2018 litigation versus Shuffle Tech International Corp., Aces Up Gaming, and Poydras-Talrick Holdings. On August 27, 2021, the Nevada district court entered an order transferring the lawsuit to the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois. On May 19, 2022, the Illinois district court granted defendants’ motion to compel arbitration of plaintiffs’ individual claims; stayed all proceedings in the lawsuit pending resolution of the arbitral process; and accordingly dismissed all pending motions without prejudice as moot. 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.

Giuliano and Rancho’s Club Casino Matter

On September 4, 2020, Alfred T. Giuliano, as liquidation trustee for RIH Acquisition NJ, LLC d/b/a The Atlantic Club Casino Hotel filed a putative class action complaint in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois against SGC, Bally Technologies, Inc. and SG Gaming, f/k/a Bally Gaming, Inc. In the complaint, the plaintiffs assert federal antitrust claims arising from the defendants’ procurement of particular U.S. patents. The plaintiffs allege that the defendants used those patents to create an allegedly illegal monopoly in the market for automatic card shufflers sold or leased in the United States. The plaintiffs seek to represent a putative class of all persons and entities that directly purchased or leased automatic card shufflers within the United States from the Defendants, or any predecessor, subsidiary, or affiliate thereof, at any time between April 1, 2009, and the present. The complaint seeks unspecified money damages, which the complaint asks the court to treble, the award of plaintiff’s costs of suit, including attorneys’ fees, and the award of pre-judgment and post-judgment interest. On September 8, 2020, Rancho’s Club Casino, Inc., d/b/a Magnolia House Casino filed a putative class action complaint in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois against SGC, Bally Technologies, Inc. and SG Gaming, f/k/a Bally Gaming, Inc. In the complaint, the plaintiff asserts federal antitrust claims arising from the defendants’ procurement of particular U.S. patents. The plaintiff alleges that the defendants used those patents to create an allegedly illegal monopoly in the market for automatic card shufflers sold or leased in the United States. The plaintiff seeks to represent a putative class of all persons and entities that directly purchased or leased automatic card shufflers within the United States from the defendants, or any predecessor, subsidiary, or affiliate thereof, at any time between April 1, 2009, and the present. The complaint seeks unspecified money damages, which the complaint asks the court to treble, the award of plaintiff’s costs of suit, including attorneys’ fees, and the award of pre-judgment and post-judgment interest.

On October 29, 2020, the trial court consolidated the Giuliano and Rancho’s Club Casino matters. On October 30, 2020, the plaintiffs in the consolidated action filed a first amended consolidated complaint. On November 9, 2020, the defendants filed a motion to dismiss the plaintiffs’ first amended consolidated complaint, and also filed a motion to compel arbitration of plaintiff Alfred T. Giuliano’s individual claims. On May 19, 2022, the Illinois district court granted defendants’ motion to compel arbitration; stayed all proceedings in the lawsuit pending resolution of the arbitral process; and accordingly dismissed all pending motions without prejudice. On May 31, 2022, defendants filed a motion to lift the stay of the lawsuit for the limited purpose of amending the court’s May 19, 2022 order to confirm that plaintiff Alfred T. Giuliano must proceed to arbitration on an individual basis rather than a class-wide basis. 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 consolidated lawsuit are without merit, and intend to vigorously defend against them.

Casino Queen Matter

On April 2, 2021, Casino Queen, Inc. and Casino Queen Marquette, Inc. filed a putative class action complaint in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois against SGC, Bally Technologies, Inc. and SG Gaming, f/k/a Bally Gaming, Inc. In the complaint, the plaintiffs assert federal antitrust claims arising from the defendants’ procurement of particular U.S. patents. The plaintiffs allege that the defendants used those patents to create an allegedly illegal monopoly in the

market for automatic card shufflers sold or leased in the United States. The plaintiffs seek to represent a putative class of all persons and entities that directly purchased or leased automatic card shufflers within the United States from the defendants, or any predecessor, subsidiary, or affiliate thereof, at any time between April 1, 2009, and the present. The complaint seeks unspecified money damages, which the complaint asks the court to treble, the award of plaintiffs’ costs of suit, including attorneys’ fees, and the award of pre-judgment and post-judgment interest. On June 11, 2021, the defendants filed a motion to dismiss plaintiffs’ complaint, which the court denied on May 19, 2022. 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.

Mohawk Gaming Enterprises Matter

On November 9, 2020, Mohawk Gaming Enterprises LLC, d/b/a Akwesasne Mohawk Casino Resort, filed a demand for a putative class arbitration before the American Arbitration Association against SGC, Bally Technologies, Inc. and SG Gaming, f/k/a Bally Gaming, Inc. (“Respondents”). In the complaint, the claimant asserts federal antitrust claims arising from the respondents’ procurement of particular U.S. patents. The claimant alleges that the respondents used those patents to create an allegedly illegal monopoly in the market for automatic card shufflers sold or leased in the United States. The claimant seeks to represent a putative class of all persons and entities that directly purchased or leased automatic card shufflers within the United States from the respondents, or any predecessor, subsidiary, or affiliate thereof, at any time between April 1, 2009, and the present. The complaint seeks unspecified money damages, which the complaint asks the arbitration panel to treble, and the award of claimant’s costs of suit, including attorneys’ fees. Respondents filed their answering statement on December 9, 2020. On October 29, 2021, the claimant filed a memorandum in support of class arbitration, which Respondents opposed on December 3, 2021. On February 8, 2022, the Arbitrator issued a clause construction award, finding that the arbitration could proceed on behalf of a class or classes. On February 11, 2022, Respondents filed a petition to vacate the award in the New York Supreme Court. On April 15, 2022, Respondents filed a motion to dismiss the claimant’s complaint, which the Arbitrator denied on July 26, 2022. 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 arbitration demand are without merit, and intend to vigorously defend against them.

Impact of COVID-19

While the COVID-19 pandemic had impacted our operating results during the first ~~quarter~~half of 2021, the operating results substantially recovered during the ~~first quarter~~second half of ~~2022~~2021 due to the lifting of COVID-19 restrictions, such as social distancing and mask mandates. We continue to see fluctuations in infection rates and regulations for various regions along with ongoing domestic and international travel restrictions or warnings, social distancing measures, reduced operating capacity and an overall economic and general uncertainty regarding the magnitude and length of time that these disruptions will continue. Additionally, thethe COVID-19 pandemic has impacted supply chains in numerous industries, causing shortages of inputs/outputs, which in turn put inflationary pressures on the economy as a whole. Inflationary pressures may have an impact on discretionary

income as people allocate more of their disposable income toward higher priced necessity goods and ~~service,~~services, which could impact our customers. These circumstances may change in the future and such changes could be material.

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:

Cost of Revenue

Total cost of revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 increased as a direct result of higher revenue ~~for all three of our business segments~~ as described above, ~~primarily~~ driven by ~~$30~~$25 million and $56 million, respectively, in higher cost of product revenue primarily associated with higher gaming machine sales.

SG&A

~~The increase~~SG&A remained relatively flat for the three months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the prior year period, as lower stock-based compensation expense was mostly offset by higher user acquisition costs in the SciPlay segment. SG&A ~~was~~increased for the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the prior year period, primarily due to higher salaries and benefits in the Gaming and SciPlay segments as a result of increased employee headcount in order to support operations ~~return~~returning to higher activity levels, coupled with higher SciPlay user acquisition ~~costs.~~costs, partially offset by lower stock-based compensation expense.

R&D

The increase in R&D for both periods was primarily due to higher salaries and benefits in the Gaming and SciPlay segments as a result of increased employee headcount in order to support operations returning to higher activity levels, coupled with investments supporting ongoing growth.

D&A

The increase in D&A was primarily due to approximately ~~$16~~$17 million and $33 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, related to accelerated amortization of certain of our legacy trade names triggered by corporate wide re-branding (see Note 11 in our 2021 10-K for further details), which was partially offset by fully depreciated assets related to prior acquisitions, net of 2021 acquisitions.

Restructuring and Other

The increase in restructuring and other in both periods was primarily due to higher professional services, legal and other charges related to strategic review including the ~~divestitures.~~divestitures (see Note 5). The current year periods also include $12 million related to contingent consideration remeasurement charges (see Note 12).

Discontinued Operations

As described ~~above and~~ in Note ~~11,~~1, we completed the ~~April~~divestiture of the Lottery Business on May 19, 2022, ~~Refinancing transactions,~~ and received $5.7 billion in gross cash proceeds. As a result of the divestiture, we recorded a pre-tax gain on sale of Lottery Business of $4.6 billion.

Revenue of $51 million and $339 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, decreased compared to revenue of $299 million and $575 million for the corresponding prior periods, primarily due to lower revenue from the Lottery Business as a result ~~we expect that a substantial amount~~ of the fees and premiums associated with the redeemed notes and unamortized debt discounts and deferred financing costs associated with these debt instruments will result in loss on debt financing transaction chargesits sale in the second quarter of ~~2022.~~

~~Discontinued Operations~~

~~The $12 million or 4% increase in revenue was primarily due to higher international and domestic Lottery instant products revenue, coupled with~~2022, partially offset by higher revenue from the Sports Betting Business due to its continued growth and expansion in the U.S. sports-betting market. The ~~increase in revenue coupled with no D&A recorded for assets held for~~gain on sale ~~in the first quarter~~ of ~~2022~~Lottery Business drove the increase in net income from discontinued operations, net of tax, to $3,445 million and $3,540 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, from $164 million and $243 million for the corresponding prior periods, partially offset by ~~$16 million or 20%~~the decrease in revenue and D&A (since no D&A was recorded for assets held for sale in the first half of 2022). Refer to Note 2 for further information on our discontinued operations.

See “Business Segments Results” below for a more detailed explanation of the significant changes in our components of revenue within the individual segment results of operations.

This also impacted the average daily revenue per unit for the International units, which increased by $5.19 and $7.96 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively. International ending installed base decreased by ~~1,941-units~~2,446-units primarily due to the closure of certain LBOs in the U.K. along with the reduction of some underperforming units in Latin America and certain low yield operations in Greece.

Gaming Machine Sales

Gaming machine sales revenue increased primarily due to higher sales of replacement units both in U.S and Canada and internationally along with a higher average sales price per new unit. Additionally, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic

on the prior year period as described above, resulted in lower unit shipments in the prior year ~~period.~~periods. The following table summarizes Gaming machine sales changes:

Operating Expenses and AEBITDA

Operating expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 increased by ~~$54~~$46 million and $100 million, respectively, as compared to the corresponding prior year periods, primarily due to (1) ~~$32~~$25 million and $56 million, respectively, in higher cost of revenue associated with the increase in revenue as described above, (2) $8$9 million and $17 million, respectively, in higher D&A primarily driven by accelerated amortization of legacy trade names, which were partially offset by fully depreciated assets related to prior acquisitions, and (3) ~~$14~~$13 million and $27 million, respectively, in higher SG&A and R&D costs.

For the three months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the prior year period, AEBITDA ~~increased as a result of the strong revenue growth as described above.~~and AEBITDA as a percentage of revenue (“AEBITDA margin”) ~~increased~~decreased by 4$15 million and 7 percentage points to ~~48%~~$179 million and 46%, ~~which is primarily~~respectively, as the prior year period benefited from $38 million revenue due to the VAT recovery as described in the Consolidated Results – Revenue section above.

For the six months ended June 30, 2022, AEBITDA increased by $49 million to $350 million as compared to the prior year period, and AEBITDA margin decreased 2 percentage points to 47% for the same comparative periods. These results were driven by strong growth in gaming operations, gaming machine sales, systems and table games businesses and were partially offset by the increased costs in the current year period and benefit of $44 million revenue related to ~~increased revenues.~~the VAT recovery in the prior year period as described above.

SCIPLAY

Our SciPlay business segment is a leading developer and publisher of digital games on mobile and web platforms. SciPlay operates in the social gaming market, which is characterized by gameplay online, on mobile phones or on tablets, that are social and competitive, and self-directed in pace and session length; as well as the hyper-casual space, which is characterized by simpler core loops and more repetitive gameplay than casual games. SciPlay generates a substantial portion of its revenue from in-app purchases in the form of coins, chips and cards, which players can use to play slot games, table games or bingo games. SciPlay also generates additional revenue, in the hyper-casual space, from the receipt of advertising revenue. Players who install SciPlay’s games typically receive free coins, chips or cards upon the initial launch of the game and additional free coins, chips or cards at specific time intervals. Players may exhaust the coins, chips or cards that they receive for free and may choose to purchase additional coins, chips or cards in order to extend their time of game play. Once obtained, coins, chips and cards (either free or purchased) cannot be redeemed for cash nor exchanged for anything other than game play within SciPlay’s apps. Players who install SciPlay’s hyper-casual games receive free, unlimited gameplay that requires viewing of periodic in-game advertisements.

SciPlay currently offers a variety of social casino games, including Jackpot Party® Casino, Gold Fish® Casino, Quick Hit® Slots, 88 Fortunes® Slots, MONOPOLY® Slots, and Hot Shot Casino®. Our SciPlay business segment continues to pursue its strategy of expanding into the casual games market. Current casual game titles include Bingo Showdown®, Solitaire Pets™ Adventure, and Backgammon Live as well as many titles in the hyper-casual space through our recent acquisition of Alictus,

including games such as Candy Challenge 3D™, Boss Life™ and Deep Clean Inc. 3D™. SciPlay currently plans to launch an additional casual game and a number of hyper-casual games in 2022. SciPlay’s social casino games typically include slots-style game play and occasionally include table games-style game play, while its casual games blend solitaire-style or bingo game play with adventure game features and its hyper-casual games include many simple core loop mechanics. All of SciPlay’s games are offered and played across multiple platforms, including Apple, Google, Facebook, Amazon and Microsoft. In addition to SciPlay’s internally created game content, SciPlay’s content library includes recognizable game content from Light & Wonder. This content allows players who like playing land-based game content to enjoy some of those same titles in SciPlay’s free-to-play games. SciPlay has access to Light & Wonder’s library of more than 1,500 iconic casino titles, including titles and content from third-party licensed brands such as ~~MONOPOLY™~~MONOPOLY, THE FLINTSTONES™, JAMES BOND™, and PLAYBOY™. SciPlay’s access to this content, coupled with its years of experience developing in-house content, uniquely positions SciPlay to create compelling digital games.

Current Year Update

On March 1, 2022, SciPlay acquired Alictus, a Turkey-based hyper-casual game studio, which expanded SciPlay’s business in the casual gaming market, grew its game pipeline and diversified its revenue streams as SciPlay advances its strategy to be a diversified global game developer.

Total revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2022 increased as compared to the prior year period primarily as a result of higher advertising revenue following the Alictus acquisition, while the core social casino games’ revenue slightly decreased for the same period. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, revenues increased as compared to the prior year period as a result of an increase in average monthly paying users due to a higher payer conversion rate during the period, ~~and to~~coupled with a ~~lesser extent, due to an~~$10 million increase in advertising revenue following the Alictus acquisition.

The increase in mobile penetration percentage for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022as compared to the prior year periods primarily reflects a continued trend of players migrating from web to mobile platforms to play SciPlay’s games.

Average MAU for the three and ~~average DAU for both comparable~~six months ended June 30, 2022 decreased as compared to the prior year periods ~~decreased~~ due to the turnover in users. ARPDAU increased as a function of lower average DAU for periods presented.

Payer conversion rates ~~have remained~~are at ~~peak levels~~an all-time high due to consistent payer interaction with the games by players as a result of the introduction of new content and features into SciPlay’s games.

Operating Expenses and AEBITDA

The increase in operating expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022as compared to the prior year periods is primarily correlated with the increase in revenue (as described above) as a result of higher platform fees, higher user acquisition spend of $5$12 million and $16 million, respectively, and higher salaries and benefits related to an increase in

headcount, coupled with an increase in D&A due to additional amortization associated with intangible assets acquired in conjunction with the Alictus and Koukoi acquisitions.

AEBITDA for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 decreasedas compared to the prior year periods primarily due to ~~the increase in~~higher operating expenses ~~driven by higher~~primarily related to user acquisition spend and personnel ~~costs.~~costs, partially offset by an increase in revenue as described above. As a result, AEBITDA margin for the three- and six-month periods decreased by 25 and 4 percentage points, ~~primarily due to higher operating expenses as described above.~~respectively.

iGAMING

Our iGaming business segment provides a comprehensive suite of digital online gaming content, including digital RMG, distribution platforms, content, products and services. We derive revenue from our content aggregation platforms, including Open Gaming System, remote gaming servers, 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. 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. 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

We continue to expand our customer base and capitalize on growth in the U.S. and other emerging markets by leveraging our industry leading platforms, content and solutions. In April ~~in conjunction with Ontario Canada’s launch of online gaming,~~2022, we ~~achieved our biggest single market launch, going~~went live with 8 operators on day 1.1 in Ontario in conjunction with the Canadian province regulating into a private licensed market.

InAlso, in April 2022, we also acquired Playzido, a dynamic content creation platform provider and game supplier, which ~~will~~is expected to accelerate the pace at which we can partner with game studios and operators to expand our iGaming content offering.

~~The~~Revenue remained in line for the three months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the prior year period, and the increase in revenue of 2% isfor the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the prior year period was due to continuing momentum in the U.S. ~~inclusive~~market coupled with continued strong performance of ~~revenue related to acquisitions completed~~businesses that we acquired in the second half of ~~2021~~2021.

LIQUIDITY, CAPITAL RESOURCES AND WORKING CAPITAL

~~April 2022 Refinancing~~

On April 14, 2022, we completed a series of refinancing transactions, which, combined with the principal payments on the SGI Term Loan B-5 and SGI Revolver in April, reduced the outstanding face value of our debt by $4,957 million, from $8,910 million as of March 31, 2022 to $3,953 million immediately after the completion of these transactions (see Note 11 for additional details).

Cash and Available Liquidity

As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022, 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), cash and cash equivalents ~~of businesses~~within assets held for sale and amounts available under the SciPlay Revolver (for our SciPlay business segment).

Total cash held by our foreign subsidiaries (including discontinued operations) was ~~$196~~$152 million and $180 million as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, 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 generally require significant upfront capital expenditures, and we may need to incur additional capital expenditures in order to retain or increase market share and units footprint. 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 I, Item 1A in our 2021 10-K.

On March 1, 2022, our Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program under which we are authorized to repurchase, from time to time through February 25, 2025, up to an aggregate amount of $750 million of our outstanding common stock over a three-year period. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, we repurchased 3.7 million shares of common stock under the program at an aggregate cost of $203 million.

On May 9, 2022, SciPlay Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program under which SciPlay is authorized to repurchase, from time to time through May 9, 2024, up to an aggregate amount of $60 million of SciPlay’s outstanding Class A common stock over a two-year period. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, SciPlay repurchased 0.5 million shares of Class A common stock under the program at an aggregate cost of $7 million.

The divestiture of the Lottery Business is estimated to generate approximately $665 million of net cash taxes, after considering the utilization of tax attributes. The net cash taxes are expected to be paid approximately 75% in mid September 2022 and 25% in mid December 2022.

Changes in working capital accounts, excluding the effects of acquisitions from continuing operations, for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022 were primarily driven by the timing of disbursements including costs associated with the strategic review, accelerated cash interest payments associated with the April 2022 Refinancing debt transactions, higher incentive compensation payout, and higher inventory purchases in order to limit supply chain impacts and support future sale levels.

Net cash provided by operating activities from discontinued operations ~~increased~~decreased primarily due to ~~higher~~lower earnings ~~and favorable impact~~as the current year period included only a partial period for Lottery Business that was sold during the second quarter of ~~working capital changes.~~2022 coupled with approximately $80 million in direct transaction costs associated with closing of the Lottery Business transaction.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities from continuing operations increased primarily due to ~~SciPlay acquisition of Alictus~~acquisitions during the first ~~quarter~~half of 2022 ~~as described in Note 1,~~ and higher capital expenditures. Capital expenditures are composed of investments in systems, equipment and

other assets related to contracts, property and equipment, intangible assets and software. The increase in net cash used in investing activities was partially offset by the settlement of our cross-currency interest rate swaps, in which we received approximately $50 million in cash proceeds.

Net cash provided by investing activities from discontinued operations increased primarily as a result of the receipt of $5,659 million in gross cash proceeds from the sale of the Lottery Business, net of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash transferred, during the second quarter of 2022.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

Net cash ~~provided~~used by financing activities increased primarily due to ~~borrowing of $230~~the April 2022 Refinancing debt transactions, in which we repaid $6,984 million in senior notes (including redemption premium) and outstanding borrowings under the SGI ~~revolving credit facility, offset by~~Term Loan B-5 and received $2,200 million in proceeds from the issuance of the SGI Term Loan B. Additionally, the increase was due to purchases of treasury stock and SciPlay’s common stock, under their respective repurchase programs described above, as well as taxes paid related to net share settlement of equity awards. During the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022, we purchased ~~$51~~$203 million of our common stock and $7 million of SciPlay’s common stock.

Credit Agreement and Other Debt

For additional information regarding our credit agreement and other debt, interest rate risk and interest rate hedging instruments, see Notes 15 and 16 and Item 7A “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” in our 2021 10-K as well as Notes 11 and 12 and Item 3 below ~~and Note 11~~ in this form 10-Q.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022, we did not have any significant off-balance sheet arrangements.

Contractual Obligations

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 2021 10-K, other than those related to the Alictus acquisition described in Note 1 and the debt pay down and refinancing transactions described in Note 11.

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, 2022, the face value of long-term debt was ~~$8,910~~$3,953 million, including ~~$4,168~~$2,200 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~~$22 million. All of our interest rate sensitive financial instruments are held for other than trading purposes.

We used 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 were designated as cash flow hedges of the future interest payments, was 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. These hedges matured in February 2022.

In April 2022, we entered into new interest rate swap contracts with $700 million notional amount to hedge a portion of our interest expense associated with our variable rate debt to effectively fix the interest rate that we will pay. The objective of our interest rate swap contracts, which are designated as cash flow hedges of the future interest payments, is to eliminate the variability of cash flows attributable to the SOFR component of interest expense to be paid on a portion of our variable rate debt. These hedges mature in April 2027.

Cross-Currency Interest Rate Swaps

During 2018, 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, 2022, 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.

In April of 2022 and as a result of the April 2022 Refinancing, we settled our cross-currency interest rate swaps and received approximately $50 million in cash proceeds.

Net Investment Non-Derivative Hedge - 2026 Secured Euro Notes

~~We designated~~As 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 ratesresult 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~~April 2022 Refinancing described above, we redeemed all 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, 2022, would~~no longer 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 $64 million.~~

~~The completion of the pending disposition of the discontinued operations is expected to result in a reduction of~~designated net ~~investments in our international subsidiaries available for hedging, which could result in increased volatility in our operating results.~~investment hedge.
