The Gaming & Digital segment, also referred to as “IGT Gaming”, which was classified as discontinued operations as of July 26, 2024, has been excluded from all presentations below, unless otherwise noted. The Company now operates as a pure-play lottery business, and reports a single segment that includes all of its continuing operations.

(NYSE: APO). These statements may discuss goals, intentions, and expectations as to future plans, trends, events, strategies, transactions, including the proposed sale of IGT Gaming, products and services, customer relationships, dividends, results of operations, and/or financial condition or measures, including our expectations on the future release of revenue, operating income, cash, and capital expenditures guidance, or otherwise, based on current beliefs of the management of the Company as well as assumptions made by, and information currently available to, such management. Forward-looking statements may be accompanied by words such as “aim,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “plan,” “could,” “would,” “should,” “shall,” “continue,” “estimate,” “expect,” “forecast,” “future,” “guidance,” “intend,” “may,” “will,” “outlook,” “possible,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” or the negative or other variations of them. These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which such statements are made and are subject to various risks and uncertainties, many of which are outside the Company’s control. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should any of the underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may differ materially from those predicted in the forward-looking statements and from past results, performance, or achievements. Therefore, you should not place undue reliance on such statements. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements include (but are not limited to):

• the possibility that the Company may not complete the sale of IGT Gaming to Apollo Funds within the time frame anticipated or at all;
• the possibility that the Parent will be unable to pay dividends to shareholders or that the amount of such dividends may be less than anticipated;

• the Company’s ability to execute on key initiatives and deliver on-going improvements;
• the effects of geopolitical or military conflicts, including events concerning Ukraine, Taiwan and Israel, that could affect the Company, its suppliers and/or customers;
• changing economic conditions in the global markets where the Company operates, including economic slowdowns, rising interest rates, inflationary and other economic factors that pressure customer spending, changes in customer demand for products and services and a slowdown in customer payments;
• unanticipated changes relating to competitive factors in the industries in which the Company operates;
• the Company’s ability to hire and retain key personnel;
• the Company’s ability to attract new customers and retain existing customers in the manner anticipated;
• the impact of supply chain constraints on the Company’s ability to meet demand for its products;
• an increase in costs resulting from supply chain constraints, including, but not limited to, increases in input costs, labor costs and freight costs, among others;
• reliance on and integration of information technology systems, including the ability to prevent, mitigate or timely recover from cybersecurity incidents;
• changes in legislation, governmental regulations, or the enforcement thereof that could affect the Company;
• enforcement of an interpretation of the Wire Act in such a manner as to prohibit or limit activities in which the Company and its customers are engaged;
• conditions in the credit markets;
• risks associated with assumptions the Company makes in connection with its critical accounting estimates;
• the resolution of pending and potential future legal, regulatory, or tax proceedings and investigations; and
• the Company’s international operations, which are subject to the risks of currency fluctuations and foreign exchange controls.

You should carefully consider the foregoing factors and the other risks and uncertainties that affect the Company’s business, including those described in “Item 3. Key Information—D. Risk Factors ”, “Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects” and other documents filed by the Parent from time to time with the SEC. Except as required under applicable law, the Company does not assume any obligation to update these forward-looking statements. Nothing in this annual report is intended, or is to be construed, as a profit forecast or to be interpreted to mean that earnings per share of the Parent for the current or any future financial years will necessarily match or exceed the historical published earnings per share of the Parent, as applicable.

Risks related to the Company's Business and Industry

The Company has a concentrated customer base, and the loss of any of its larger customers (or lower sales from any of these customers) could lead to significantly lower revenue.

A substantial portion of the Company’s revenues is derived from exclusive licenses awarded to the Company by the ADM, the governmental authority responsible for regulating and supervising gaming in Italy. For the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, approximately 18% and 17%, respectively, of the Company’s total consolidated revenues was earned for service provided for the operation of the Italian Gioco del Lotto games and approximately 17% and 17%, respectively, was earned for service provided for the operation of the Italian Scratch & Win instant ticket games.

The Company expects that a significant portion of its revenues and profits will continue to depend upon the licenses awarded to the Company by ADM, including the current tender for the Italian Gioco del Lotto license launched on January 10, 2025. Licenses may be terminated prior to their expiration dates upon the occurrence of certain events of default affecting the Company, or if such licenses are deemed to be against the public interest, or terminated or annulled if successfully challenged by competitors. In addition, the conditions for any new license will be established by law and included in the rules of the new license. Any material reduction in the Company’s revenues from these licenses, including as a result of an annulment, early termination, or non-renewal of these licenses following their expiration, could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, business, financial condition, or prospects.

In addition, recurring revenues from the Company’s top 10 customers outside of Italy accounted for approximately 36% of its total consolidated revenues for the year ended December 31, 2024. In 2025, the Company anticipates the loss of one of these customers, Allwyn in the U.K., as Allwyn is expected to complete its lottery system transition to another supplier in 2025. If the Company were to lose any of its other larger customers, or if these larger customers experience lower sales and consequently

reduced revenues, which are primarily service revenues, there could be a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, business, financial condition, or prospects.

The Company’s operations are dependent upon its continued ability to retain and extend its existing contracts and win new contracts with its customers.

The Company derives a substantial portion of its revenues from its portfolio of long-term lottery operating contracts, FMCs, and LMAs (equal to approximately 92% of its total consolidated revenues for the year ended December 31, 2024 ), awarded through competitive procurement processes. The Company’s U.S. lottery contracts typically permit a lottery authority to terminate the contract at any time for material, uncured breaches and for other specified reasons out of the Company's control, such as the failure by a state legislature to approve the required budget appropriations. In addition, many of these contracts in the U.S. permit the lottery authority to terminate the contract at will with limited notice and do not specify the compensation to which the Company would be entitled were such termination to occur. If one or more of the Company’s U.S. lottery contracts were terminated, or were not renewed or extended, there is no guarantee that the Company would be able to identify replacement sources of revenue in a timely fashion, or at all. Additionally, the loss of one or more of the Company’s U.S. lottery contracts to a competitor could place the Company at a competitive disadvantage.

In the event that the Company is unable or unwilling to perform under certain lottery contracts, such contracts permit the lottery authority a right to use the Company's system-related equipment and software necessary for the performance of the contract until the expiration or earlier termination of the contract.

The termination of or failure to renew or extend one or more of the Company’s lottery contracts, or the renewal or extension of one or more of the Company’s lottery contracts on materially altered terms, could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, business, financial condition, or prospects.

Adverse changes in discretionary consumer spending and behavior, including as a result of the occurrence or perception of economic slowdown, rising interest rates and/or inflation, may adversely affect the demand for lottery and overall economic trends specific to the lottery industry and the Company's business.

Sociopolitical and economic factors that impact consumer confidence may result in decreased discretionary spending by consumers and have a negative effect on the Company's business. Unfavorable changes in social, political and economic conditions and economic uncertainties, as well as decreased discretionary spending by consumers, may adversely impact customers, suppliers and business partners in a variety of ways.

Consumer discretionary income and its potential effects on lottery activity may directly or indirectly impact the revenues generated by the Company's business. Economic factors resulting in a reduction, or the perception of a reduction, in such discretionary income could negatively impact draw game, instant ticket, and iLottery play.

The occurrence or perception of an economic slowdown or recession may also have a negative impact on consumer discretionary spending, particularly when combined with the occurrence or perception of rising interest rates and inflation (or increases in the prices of consumer products, including food and energy). If these conditions persist or worsen, it may result in declines in draw game, instant ticket, and iLottery participation, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business and results of operations.

The Company is subject to substantial penalties for failure to perform.

The Company’s Italian licenses, lottery contracts in the U.S. and in other jurisdictions, and other service contracts often require performance bonds or letters of credit to secure its performance under such contracts and require the Company to pay substantial monetary liquidated damages in the event of non-performance by the Company.

At December 31, 2024, the Company had outstanding performance bonds and letters of credit in an aggregate amount of approximately $807 million. These instruments present a potential expense for the Company and could divert financial resources from other uses. Claims on performance bonds, drawings on letters of credit, and payment of liquidated damages could individually or in the aggregate have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations, business, financial condition, liquidity, or prospects.

The Company’s success depends in large part on its ability to develop and manage frequent introductions of innovative products and the ability to respond to technological changes, and slow growth or declines in the lottery market could lead to lower revenues for the Company.

The Company’s future success will depend, in part, on the lottery industry’s success in attracting and retaining new players in the face of increased competition in the entertainment and gaming markets, as well as the Company's own success in developing innovative services, products, and distribution methods/systems to achieve this goal. The Company must continually introduce and successfully market new lottery games and technologies to remain competitive and effectively stimulate customer demand. The process of developing new lottery products is inherently complex and uncertain. It requires accurate anticipation of changing customer needs and end-user preferences as well as emerging technological trends. If the Company's competitors develop new content or innovative products and the Company fails to keep pace, its business could be adversely affected. Additionally, if the Company’s competitors adopt and employ new technologies, such as artificial intelligence, more rapidly than the Company is able to do so, the Company could experience a competitive disadvantage or comparatively higher costs than its competitors.

In addition, if the Company fails to accurately anticipate customer needs and end-user preferences through the development of new products, services and technologies, the Company could lose business to its competitors, which would adversely affect its results of operations, business, financial condition, or prospects. While the Company intends to continue investing resources in research and development, which includes new lottery hardware, software, content, services and systems, there can be no assurance that these investments will guarantee successful products. Because the Company’s newer products are generally more technologically sophisticated than those it has produced in the past, the Company must continually refine its design, development, and delivery capabilities to ensure product innovation. Newer products also require adequate supply of electronic components and other raw materials, for which the Company relies on third party suppliers. See “ The Company depends on its suppliers and faces supply chain risks that could adversely affect its financial results ” within “ Operational Risks ” below.

If the Company cannot efficiently adapt its processes and infrastructure to meet the needs of its product innovations, or if the Company is unable to source adequate supplies to manufacture its newer products, its results of operations, business, financial condition, or prospects could be negatively impacted.

If the Company is unable to protect its intellectual property or prevent its unauthorized use by third parties, its ability to compete in the lottery market may be harmed.

At December 31, 2024 , the Company held more than 400 patent applications and granted patents and more than 1,400 trademarks filed and registered worldwide. The Company protects its intellectual property to ensure that its competitors do not use such intellectual property. However, intellectual property laws in the U.S., Italy, and in other jurisdictions may afford differing and limited protection, may not permit the Company to gain or maintain a competitive advantage, and may not prevent its competitors from duplicating its products, designing around its patented products, or gaining access to its proprietary information and technology.

The Company may not be able to prevent the unauthorized disclosure or use of its technical knowledge or trade secrets. For example, there can be no assurance that consultants, vendors, partners, former employees, or current employees will not breach their obligations regarding non-disclosure and restrictions on use. In addition, anyone could seek to challenge, invalidate, circumvent, or render unenforceable any of the Company's patents. The Company cannot provide assurance that any pending or future patent applications it holds will result in an issued patent, or that, if patents are issued, they would necessarily provide meaningful protection against competitors and competitive technologies or adequately protect the Company’s then-current technologies. The Company may not be able to detect the unauthorized use of its intellectual property, prevent breaches of its cybersecurity efforts, or take appropriate steps to enforce its intellectual property rights effectively. In addition, certain contractual provisions, including restrictions on use, copying, transfer, and disclosure of software, may be unenforceable under the laws of certain jurisdictions.

The Company’s success may depend in part on its ability to obtain trademark protection for the names or symbols under which it markets its products and to obtain copyright protection and patent protection of its technologies and game innovations. The Company may not be able to build and maintain goodwill in its trademarks or obtain trademark or patent protection, and there can be no assurance that any trademark, copyright, or issued patent will provide competitive advantages for the Company or that the Company’s intellectual property will not be successfully challenged or circumvented by competitors.

The Company maintains various patents, trademarks, copyrights and trade secrets and intends to enforce its intellectual property rights. From time to time, the Company may assert claims against third parties that it believes are infringing its intellectual property rights. Litigation initiated or defended to protect and enforce the Company’s intellectual property rights could be
10
costly, time consuming and distracting to management, could fail to obtain the results sought, and could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, business, financial condition, or prospects.

If the Company is unable to license intellectual property from third parties, its ability to compete in the lottery market may be harmed.

The Company licenses intellectual property rights from third parties, including the various trademarks and copyrights for Ghostbusters ®, Wheel of Fortune ® , and other popular franchises. If such third parties do not properly maintain or enforce the intellectual property rights underlying such licenses, or if such licenses are terminated or expire without being renewed, the Company could lose the right to use the licensed intellectual property, which could adversely affect its competitive position or its ability to commercialize certain of its technologies, products, or services.

Third party intellectual property infringement claims against the Company could limit its ability to compete effectively.

The Company cannot provide assurance that its products do not infringe the intellectual property rights of third parties. Infringement and other intellectual property claims and proceedings brought against the Company, whether successful or not, are costly, time consuming and distracting to management, and could harm the Company's reputation. In addition, intellectual property claims and proceedings could require the Company to do one or more of the following: (i) cease selling or using any of its products that allegedly incorporate the infringed intellectual property, (ii) pay substantial damages, (iii) obtain a license from the third-party owner, which license may not be available on reasonable terms, if at all, (iv) rebrand or rename its products, and (v) redesign its products to avoid infringing the intellectual property rights of third parties, which may not be possible and, if possible, could be costly, time consuming, or result in a less effective product. A successful claim against the Company could have a material adverse effect on its results of operations, business, financial condition, or prospects.

Divestitures may materially adversely affect the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

From time to time, the Company may pursue divestitures in support of its strategic goals. For example, on June 8, 2023, the Company announced a review of potential strategic alternatives for IGT Gaming, which included the potential sale of the business. On July 26, 2024, the Parent and Ignite Rotate LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of the Parent (“Spinco”), ultimately entered into Transaction Agreements with Everi Holdings Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Everi”), Voyager Parent, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Buyer”), and Voyager Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of the Buyer (the “Buyer Sub”) (together with the IGT, Spinco, Everi and the Buyer, the “Parties”), pursuant to which, and subject to the terms and conditions of the Transaction Agreements, the Parties agreed to consummate the Proposed Transaction, as a result of which, among other matters, IGT Gaming and Everi will be simultaneously acquired by a newly formed holding company owned by Apollo Funds. IGT Gaming and Everi will be privately-owned companies that are part of one combined enterprise (the “Combined Company”). As consideration for the above, the Parent will receive a purchase price before transaction costs and other customary closing adjustments of $4.05 billion and all of the issued and outstanding shares of Everi common stock will be converted into the right to receive $14.25 in cash per share of Everi common stock. The Parent will change its name and continue to trade on the NYSE under a new ticker symbol. Refer to “Risks related to the Company’s Sale of the IGT Gaming Business” for risk factor discussions specific to the Proposed Transaction.

Divestitures involve risks, including difficulties in the separation of operations, services, products and personnel, the diversion of management's attention from other business concerns, the disruption of business, the potential loss of revenues, increased customer concentration, departures of key employees, the retention of uncertain contingent liabilities related to the divested business, and potential reputational harm resulting from proposed transactions or the failure to consummate a proposed transaction. The Company may not be successful in managing these or any other significant risks that it encounters in any divestiture the Company may undertake, and any such divestiture could materially and adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, and may also result in a diversion of management attention, operational difficulties and losses. Further, there can be no assurance whether any particular planned divestiture will be completed on the originally proposed terms and timeline, or at all, or that the strategic benefits and expected financial impact of any divestiture will be achieved.

The Company’s inability to successfully complete and integrate acquisitions could limit its future growth or otherwise be disruptive to its ongoing business.

From time to time, the Company expects it will pursue acquisitions in support of its strategic goals. There can be no assurance that acquisition opportunities will be available on acceptable terms or at all or that the Company will be able to obtain necessary financing or regulatory approvals to complete potential acquisitions. The Company’s ability to succeed in implementing its
11
strategy will depend to some degree upon the ability of its management to identify, complete, arrange financing for, and successfully integrate commercially viable acquisitions. Acquisition transactions may disrupt the Company’s ongoing business and distract management from other responsibilities. Further, the Company may incur unexpected costs, or fail to realize expected benefits from such acquisitions. In connection with any such acquisitions, the Company could face significant challenges in managing and integrating its expanded or combined operations, including acquired assets, operations, and personnel.

The Company faces reputational risks related to the use of social media.

The Company frequently uses social media platforms as marketing tools. These platforms provide the Company, as well as individuals, with access to a broad audience of consumers and other interested persons. Negative commentary regarding the Company or the products it sells may be posted on social media platforms and similar devices at any time and may be adverse to the Company’s reputation or business. Further, as laws, regulations, and different platforms’ terms of service rapidly evolve to govern the use of social media, the failure by the Company, its employees or third parties acting at the Company's direction to abide by applicable laws and regulations in the use of these platforms and devices could adversely impact the Company’s business, financial condition, and results of operations or subject it to fines or other penalties.

The Company’s results of operations, cash flows and financial condition could be affected by public health issues, geopolitical and regulatory instability and other potentially disruptive events in the locations where the Company’s customers, suppliers or regulators operate.

The Company may be impacted by public health crises (including the outbreak of communicable diseases such as COVID-19) that could negatively impact the Company’s operations or the operations of the Company’s customers, suppliers, data service providers and regulators.

The Company’s operations could also be impacted by geopolitical instability, including the uncertainty, outbreak and escalation of war (such as the Russia-Ukraine and Israel-Hamas conflicts), terrorism or other acts of violence any of which could adversely affect the Company’s ability to operate and deliver its products and services.

The Company’s operations and business could be impacted by regulatory and political uncertainty, including as a result of new or increased tariffs, trade wars, and other restrictions on trade between or among countries in which it operates, tensions between or among the jurisdictions in which it operates, changing or conflicting regulations and market expectations that may differ between jurisdictions in which it operates, and increased costs of compliance as a result of the foregoing. Any of these events could have a material adverse effect on the Company or its customers, which could have a material adverse effect on Company’s results of operations, cash flows, financial condition, and reputation.

While the Company insures against certain business interruption risks, the Company cannot assure that such insurance will compensate the Company for any losses incurred as a result of natural or other disasters. Any serious disruption to the Company’s operations, or those of the Company’s customers, suppliers, data service providers, or regulators, could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, cash flows and financial condition.

Legal and Compliance Risks

The Company faces risks related to the extensive and complex governmental regulation applicable to its operations.

The Company’s activities are subject to extensive and complex governmental regulation, including restrictions on advertising, increases in or differing interpretations by authorities on taxation, limitations on the use of cash, and anti-money laundering compliance procedures. These regulatory requirements are constantly evolving and may vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction. Any changes in the legal or regulatory framework or other changes, such as increased taxation, changes in the compensation paid to licensees, or increases in the number of licenses, authorizations, or licenses awarded to the Company's competitors, could materially affect its profitability.

In addition, in the U.S. and in many international jurisdictions where the Company currently operates or seeks to do business, lotteries are not permitted unless expressly authorized by law. The successful implementation of the Company’s growth strategy and its business could be materially adversely affected if jurisdictions that do not currently authorize lotteries do not approve such activities or if those jurisdictions that currently authorize lotteries do not continue to permit such activities.

12
Investigations by governmental and licensing entities can result in adverse findings or negative publicity.

From time to time, the Company is subject to extensive background investigations, and other investigations of various types are conducted by governmental and licensing authorities with respect to applicable lottery regulations. These regulations and investigations vary from time to time and from jurisdiction to jurisdiction where the Company operates. The Company’s operations may be impacted if the Company is unable to obtain a privileged lottery license or have a privileged lottery license revoked by a regulatory authority. Because the Company’s reputation for integrity is an important factor in its business dealings with lottery and other governmental agencies, a governmental allegation or a finding of improper conduct by or attributable to the Company in any manner, the prolonged investigation of these matters by governmental or regulatory authorities, and/or the adverse publicity resulting therefrom could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, business, financial condition, or prospects, including its ability to retain existing contracts or to obtain new or renewed contracts, both in the subject jurisdiction and elsewhere.

Failure to comply with data privacy laws, including the GDPR could result in significant penalties.

Our business is subject to the E.U. GDPR and the U.K. GDPR. The GDPR has direct effect where an entity is established in the European Economic Area (the “EEA”) or the U.K. (as applicable) and has extraterritorial effect where an entity established outside the EEA or the U.K. processes personal data in relation to the offering of goods or services to individuals in the EEA and/or the U.K. (respectively) or the monitoring of their behavior in the EEA and/or the U.K. The GDPR imposes a number of obligations on controllers, including, among others:

• accountability and transparency requirements, which require controllers to demonstrate and record compliance with the GDPR and to provide more detailed information to data subjects regarding processing;
• requirements to process personal data lawfully, including specific requirements for obtaining valid consent where consent is the lawful basis for processing;
• obligations to consider data privacy as any new products or services are developed and designed and to limit the amount of information collected, processed, and stored as well as its accessibility;
• constraints on automated individual decision-making, including profiling data subjects;
• providing data subjects with data protection rights such as (among others) a right to ask for a copy of personal data to be provided to a third party in a usable format on request and erasing or rectifying personal data in certain circumstances;
• obligations to implement appropriate technical and organizational security measures to safeguard personal data; and
• obligations to report certain personal data breaches to the relevant supervisory authority without undue delay (and no later than 72 hours where feasible) and affected individuals where the personal data breach is likely to result in a high risk to their rights and freedoms.

In addition, the GDPR prohibits the international transfer of personal data from the EEA/U.K. to countries outside of the EEA/U.K. unless made to a country deemed to have “adequate” data privacy laws by the European Commission or U.K. Government (as applicable) or if a data transfer mechanism (such as, Standard Contractual Clauses or “SCCs”) has been put in place or a derogation under the GDPR can be relied upon. In certain cases, companies will also need to carry out a transfer impact assessment (“TIA”), which among other things, assesses laws governing access to personal data in the recipient country and considers whether supplementary measures that provide privacy protections additional to those provided under SCCs will need to be implemented to ensure an “essentially equivalent” level of data protection to that afforded in the EEA/U.K. (as applicable).

Further, on July 10, 2023, the European Commission adopted its Final Implementing Decision granting the U.S. adequacy (“Adequacy Decision”) for E.U.-U.S. transfers of personal data for entities self-certified to the Data Privacy Framework (“DPF”). Entities relying on SCCs for transfers from the EEA to the U.S. are also able to rely on the analysis in the Adequacy Decision as support for their TIA regarding the equivalence of U.S. national security safeguards and redress.

On September 21, 2023, the U.K. Secretary of State for Science, Innovation and Technology established a U.K.-U.S. data bridge (i.e., a U.K. equivalent of the Adequacy Decision) and adopted U.K. regulations to implement the U.K.-U.S. data bridge (the “U.K. Adequacy Regulations”). Personal data may now be transferred from the U.K. under the U.K.-U.S. data bridge through the U.K. extension to the DPF to organizations self-certified under the U.K. extension to DPF.

Other jurisdictions in which the Company operates have implemented, or are considering implementing, data privacy laws similar to the GDPR. Several of the Parent’s subsidiaries deal with a significant amount of employee personal data. There is a risk that the Company's policies and procedures for compliance with data privacy laws, including the GDPR will not be implemented correctly or that individuals within the Company will not be fully compliant with the new procedures. Failure to
13
comply with data privacy laws may have serious financial consequences to the Company. For example, failure to comply with the GDPR may lead to fines of up to the maximum of either €20 million (under the E.U. GDPR) or £17.5 million (under the U.K. GDPR) or 4% of worldwide annual revenue, whichever is greater, for serious violations of certain of the GDPR’s requirements, and the Company could face significant administrative sanctions and reputational damage that could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, business, financial condition, or prospects. There is a risk that we could be impacted by a cybersecurity incident that results in loss or unauthorized disclosure of personal data, potentially resulting in the Company facing harms similar to those described above.

Compliance with these and any other applicable privacy and data security laws and regulations is a rigorous and time-intensive process, and we may be required to put in place additional mechanisms ensuring compliance with any new data protection rules. In addition, states are constantly adopting new laws or amending existing laws, requiring attention to frequently changing requirements. For example, California enacted the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), which took effect on January 1, 2020, and was the first comprehensive state privacy law in the U.S. The CCPA gives California residents expanded rights to access and delete their personal information, opt out of certain personal information sharing and receive detailed information about how their personal information is used by requiring covered companies to provide new disclosures to California consumers (as that term is broadly defined) and provide such consumers new ways to opt-out of certain sales of personal information. The CCPA provides for civil penalties for violations, as well as a private right of action for data breaches. Further, the California Privacy Rights Act (the CPRA), which further amended the CCPA, went into effect on January 1, 2023. The CCPA, as amended by the CPRA, imposes additional data protection obligations on companies doing business in California, including additional consumer rights processes, limitations on data uses, new audit requirements for higher risk data, and opt outs for certain uses of sensitive data. It also created a California data protection agency authorized to issue substantive regulations. Similar laws have been adopted and proposed in other states, and if passed, such laws may have potentially conflicting requirements that would make compliance challenging. Multiple other states and the federal government are considering enacting similar legislation, demonstrating a strong trend towards more stringent state privacy, data protection, and data security legislation in the U.S., which could increase our potential liability and adversely affect our business.

The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) and many state attorneys general are interpreting existing federal and state consumer protection laws to impose evolving standards for the collection, use, dissemination and security of personally identifiable information. The FTC has authority under Section 5 of the FTC Act to regulate unfair or deceptive practices and has used this authority to initiate enforcement actions against companies that implement inadequate controls around privacy and information security in violation of their externally facing policies. For instance, the FTC published an advance notice of proposed rulemaking on commercial surveillance and data security in 2022 and may implement new trade regulation rules or other regulatory alternatives concerning the ways in which companies (1) collect, aggregate, protect, use, analyze, and retain consumer data, as well as (2) transfer, share, sell, or otherwise monetize that data in ways that are unfair or deceptive in the coming years. Privacy laws require us to publish statements that describe how we handle personal information and choices individuals may have about the way we handle their personal information. Violating individuals’ privacy rights, publishing false or misleading information about security practices, or failing to take appropriate steps to keep individuals’ personal information secure may constitute unfair or deceptive acts or practices in violation of Section 5 of the FTC Act. Federal regulators, state attorneys general and plaintiffs’ attorneys have been and will likely continue to be active in this space, and if we do not comply with existing or new laws and regulations related to personally identifiable information, we could be subject to criminal or civil sanctions.

The Company is exposed to significant risks in relation to compliance with anti-corruption laws and regulations and economic sanction programs.

Doing business worldwide requires the Company to comply with the laws and regulations of various jurisdictions. In particular, the Company's operations are subject to anti-corruption laws and regulations, such as the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, the U.K. Bribery Act of 2010, and other anti-corruption laws that apply in countries where the Company operates. Other laws and regulations applicable to the Company control trade by imposing economic sanctions on countries and persons and creating customs requirements and currency exchange regulations. The Company's continued global expansion, including in countries which lack a developed legal system or have high levels of corruption, increases the risk of actual or alleged violations of such laws.

The Company cannot predict the nature, scope, or effect of future regulatory requirements to which its operations might be subject or the manner in which such laws might be administered or interpreted.

There can be no assurance that the policies and procedures the Company has implemented have been or will be followed at all times or will effectively detect and prevent violations of these laws by one or more of the Company's directors, officers,
14
employees, consultants, agents, joint-venture partners or other third-party partners. As a result, the Company could be subject to investigations, criminal and civil penalties, sanctions and/or other remedial measures that in turn could have a material adverse effect on its business, results of operations and financial condition.

Negative perceptions and publicity surrounding the lottery industry could lead to increased regulation.

The popularity and acceptance of lottery games is influenced by prevailing social attitudes toward the lottery, and changes in social attitudes toward the lottery could result in reduced acceptance of lottery play as a leisure activity. Further, from time to time, the lottery industry is exposed to negative publicity related to concerning player behavior, play by minors, the presence of point-of-sale machines in too many locations, risks related to iLottery accessibility, and alleged association with money laundering. Publicity regarding problem gambling and other concerns with the gaming industry, even if not directly connected to the Company, could adversely impact its business, results of operations, and financial condition. For example, if the perception develops that the gaming industry is failing to address responsible gaming concerns adequately, the resulting political pressure may result in the industry becoming subject to increased regulation and restrictions on operations. Such an increase in regulation could adversely impact the Company's results of operations, business, financial condition, or prospects.

Changes to U.S. and foreign tax laws could adversely affect the Company.

The Company is subject to tax laws in the U.S. and several foreign tax jurisdictions and judgment is required in determining the Company’s global provision for income taxes. While the Company believes its tax positions are consistent with the tax laws in the jurisdictions in which it conducts business, it is possible that these positions may be overturned by tax authorities, which may have a significant impact on the Company’s global provision for income taxes.

Furthermore, changes in tax laws or regulations may be proposed or enacted that could significantly affect the Company’s overall tax expense.

In October 2015, the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (“OECD”) published its final recommendations on base erosion and profit shifting (“BEPS”). These BEPS recommendations propose measures to coordinate multilateral action on international tax rules. Several of the areas of tax law on which the BEPS project has focused have led or will lead to changes in the domestic law of individual OECD jurisdictions. The implementation of recommendations arising from the action points comprising BEPS has resulted in significant changes to local tax legislation and international double tax treaties over recent years. For example, BEPS has resulted in jurisdictions implementing laws which (among other things): (i) limit deductibility of interest payments; (ii) expand the scope of permanent establishment (thereby extending the scope of jurisdictions' taxing rights); (iii) counteract hybrid mismatch arrangements; and (iv) strengthen 'Controlled Foreign Company' rules. Legislation introduced in relation to hybrid mismatches came into effect on January 1, 2017, and legislation to restrict tax deductions for interest expenses of large groups was brought into effect from April 1, 2017.

On June 21, 2016, the E.U.’s ministers of Finance and Economic Affairs unanimously approved the Anti-Tax Avoidance Directive to harmonize potential BEPS changes in the E.U. These measures are largely directed at counteracting the effects of tax havens and preferential tax regimes in countries around the world. We expect that countries may change their tax laws in response to this project, and several countries have already changed or proposed changes to their tax laws. On July 1, 2020, the Anti-Tax Avoidance Directive II (“ATAD II”) entered into force, with provisions on hybrid structures entering into force on January 1, 2021 to apply to income obtained in the tax year starting December 31, 2020. ATAD II is designed to prevent hybrid mismatches giving rise to a double deduction or to a deduction without taxation in different tax jurisdictions. In certain cases, taxpayers may be denied the right to recognize tax deductible costs on payments subject to a double deduction. On December 22, 2021, the E.U. published the draft Anti-Tax Avoidance Directive III (“ATAD III”) designed to impose new minimum substance rules to prevent the misuse of shell entities for improper tax purposes. ATAD III proposes to introduce reporting requirements for certain E.U. tax resident companies with mobile and/or passive income (such as interest, dividends and royalty income) that have inadequate economic substance (as prescribed under ATAD III). If an entity fails to meet these substance requirements, it will be denied benefits under double tax treaties and various E.U. directives. ATAD III was originally intended to be implemented by E.U. member states, by June 30, 2023, with a planned effective date of January 1, 2024, but has been delayed further. The details of these rules are therefore subject to change.

In addition, the OECD is continuing to work on a two-pillar initiative, “BEPS 2.0,” which is aimed at (i) shifting taxing rights to the jurisdiction of the consumer (“Pillar One”); and (ii) ensuring all companies pay a global minimum tax (“Pillar Two”). Pillar One will, broadly, re-allocate taxing rights over 25% of the residual profits of multinational enterprises (“MNEs”) with global turnover in excess of 20 billion euros (excluding extractives and regulated financial services) to the jurisdictions where the customers and users of those MNEs are located. Pillar Two will, broadly, consist of two interlocking domestic rules (together the Global Anti-Base Erosion Rules (the “GloBE Rules”)): (i) an Income Inclusion Rule (“IIR”), which imposes top-
15
up tax on a parent entity in respect of the low-taxed income of a constituent entity; and (ii) an Undertaxed Payment Rule (“UTPR”), which denies deductions or requires an equivalent adjustment to the extent the low-taxed income of a constituent entity is not subject to tax under an IIR. There will also be a treaty-based Subject To Tax Rule that allows source jurisdictions to impose limited source taxation on certain related party payments subject to tax below a minimum rate.

For countries other than the U.S., the OECD recommended model GloBE Rules for Pillar Two in late 2021. The OECD has also continued to release further guidance on the model GloBE Rules, with the latest guidance issued on 15 January 2025. This includes the release in early February 2023 of technical guidance which comments in particular on the interaction between the model GloBE Rules and current U.S. tax law, and the release in July 2023 of further administrative guidance which contains details of how to calculate tax for the purposes of Pillar Two. Many aspects of Pillar Two have become effective as of January 1, 2024, with other aspects expected to become effective through the course of 2025.

Several aspects of the model GloBE Rules, including whether some or all of the Company’s business and the companies in which the Company invests may fall within the scope of the exclusions therefrom, currently remain unclear or uncertain notwithstanding existing commentary and draft legislation. The U.K. enacted legislation in July 2023 implementing the IIR via a “multinational top-up tax” (“MTT”) (alongside a U.K. domestic top-up tax) that applies to multinational enterprises for accounting periods beginning on or after December 31, 2023. Finance Act 2024 enacts certain amendments to the IIR which was previously enacted in the MTT legislation. The amendments have restrospective effect for accounting periods beginning on or after December 31, 2023. On November 29, 2023 a Finance Bill proposed new provisions relating to the U.K.’s implementation of a UTPR rule for accounting periods beginning on or after December 31, 2024. The UTPR rule is expected to be introduced by a later Finance Bill, although the effective date will remain the same.

It is likely that other countries or jurisdictions will implement the recommended model GloBE Rules (including either or both the IIR or UTPR) as drafted or in a modified form, although some countries may not introduce such changes. The implications of such implementations for the Company’s business remain uncertain, both at a domestic level and in terms of how domestic implementations may interact with implementing legislation in other relevant jurisdictions.

The timing, scope, and implementation of any of the potential Pillar One and Pillar Two provisions into the domestic law of relevant countries, including the U.S. based on a January 20, 2025 presidential memorandum, remains subject to significant uncertainty, and the content of existing and future OECD guidance (and its consistency with current international tax principles or with implementing legislation of relevant countries) also remains uncertain. Depending on how the model GloBE Rules are implemented or clarified by additional commentary or guidance in the future, they may result in material additional tax being payable by the Company’s business and the businesses of the companies in which the Company invests. The ultimate implementation of the BEPS project may also increase the complexity and the burden and costs of compliance and advice relating to the Company’s ability to efficiently fund, hold and realize investments, and could necessitate or increase the probability of some restructuring of the Company’s group or business operations. The implementation of the BEPS project may also lead to additional complexity in evaluating the tax implications of ongoing investments and restructuring transactions within the Company’s business.

If U.S. or other foreign tax authorities change applicable tax laws, the Company’s overall taxes could increase, and its results of operations, business, financial condition, or prospects may be adversely affected.

The Company may be subject to an unfavorable outcome with respect to pending regulatory, tax, or other legal proceedings, which could result in substantial monetary damages or other harm to the Company.

The Company is involved in a number of legal, regulatory, tax, and arbitration proceedings including claims by and against it as well as injunctions by third parties arising out of the ordinary course of its business or its other business activities and is subject to investigations and compliance inquiries related to its ongoing operations. It is difficult to estimate accurately the outcome of any proceeding. As such, the amounts of the Company’s provision for litigation risks could vary significantly from the amounts the Company may be asked to pay or ultimately pay in any such proceeding. In addition, unfavorable resolution of or significant delay in adjudicating such proceedings could require the Company to pay substantial monetary damages or penalties and/or incur costs that may exceed any provision for litigation risks or, under certain circumstances, cause the termination or revocation of the relevant lottery license or authorization and thereby have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, business, financial condition, or prospects.

The Company is subject to physical risks relating to climate change and transitional risks relating to governmental and societal responses to climate change.

The Company, as well as our customers, suppliers, and partners, is subject to physical and transitional risks relating to climate change. Physical risks to our operations, and those of our affiliates, include increasingly severe and frequent weather-related events and natural disasters, such as hurricanes, floods, drought, wildfires, and stresses on the water supply. The occurrence of one or more of these events could disrupt our properties, supply chain, and operations, and the Company’s suppliers, partners, and customers could pass along any increased costs to us, experience an interruption in their dealings with us, or experience decreased demand for our products and services. These risks could increase the Company’s operating costs (including the cost of our electricity and energy use) and compliance costs, impacting our ability to produce and market our products and the ultimate demand for our products and services.

Transitional risks arise from regulatory changes and societal shifts by governmental authorities, non-governmental organizations, customers, investors, employees, and other stakeholders, who are increasingly sensitive to ESG matters, including climate change. The effects could include, for example, a global transition away from fossil fuels that may result in increased energy prices; shifting customer preferences; stakeholder pressure to decarbonize assets; or new legal or regulatory requirements that result in new or expanded carbon pricing, taxes, restrictions on greenhouse gas emissions, and increased greenhouse gas disclosure and transparency. Regulatory changes or shifts in consumer preferences could restrict our ability to manufacture certain products or require us to find alternatives for the manufacture of certain products. In addition, governments and the public increasingly expect companies like us to report on our business practices with respect to sustainability and environmental impact, among other ESG-related topics. For example, the E.U. recently adopted the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) that will impose disclosure of the risks and opportunities arising from social and environmental issues, and on the impact of companies’ activities on people and the environment. Similarly, the State of California recently passed the Climate Corporate Data Accountability Act and the Climate-Related Financial Risk Act that will impose broad climate-related disclosure obligations on companies doing business in California. The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) has adopted a final rule in 2024 requiring certain climate disclosures. This rule is currently stayed pending litigation, and it is uncertain whether or when it may be effective. More recently, the U.S. government has signaled a change in course on climate regulations, including through the issuance of executive orders and the determination to withdraw from the Paris Agreement.on climate change. This focus on ESG matters, and the need to comply with complex and potentially conflicting requirements and expectations in different jurisdictions, may lead to increased costs of compliance as well as new expectations or requirements that could result in increased costs associated with research, development, manufacture, or distribution of our products, and with our and our customers’ operations more generally. Our ability to compete could also be affected by changing customer preferences and requirements, such as growing demand for companies to establish validated sustainability targets or offer more sustainable products. Failure to meet evolving regulatory requirements and stakeholder expectations could also result in litigation or regulatory actions, affecting demand for our products, which may have a material adverse impact on our financial results and longer-term loss of trust, undermining the credibility of the Company.

Operational Risks

The Company depends on its suppliers and faces supply chain risks that could adversely affect its financial results.

The Company purchases most of the parts, components, and subassemblies necessary for its lottery terminals from outside sources primarily located throughout Asia, including China, Taiwan, and Vietnam. The Company then outsources the manufacturing and assembly of certain lottery terminals to third-party vendors. The Company’s operating results could be adversely affected if one or more of its manufacturing and assembly outsourcing vendors fails to meet defined quality standards and production schedules. Disruptions and delays could adversely affect our suppliers’ ability to meet production schedules.

While the Company continues to seek opportunities to diversify its supply chain, the Company has experienced in the past, and may continue to experience, disruptions throughout its supply chain. In particular, the Company could be adversely impacted by a shortage in the supply of electronic components necessary for the manufacture of lottery terminals. These shortages would require the Company to adjust some of its delivery and production schedules, and could cause the Company to be unable to meet demand for its products or to introduce new products on schedule, leading to a reduction in potential sales. The Company cannot provide assurance as to how long any impacts by a shortage in electronic components, or whether it will in the future face shortages of other parts, components or subassemblies necessary for the manufacture of any of its finished products. Furthermore, global supply chain constraints have also generally led to an increase in costs, including supply costs (such as the cost of paper and electronic components), freight costs, energy costs and labor costs, among others. The Company may not be able to pass these increased costs on to customers, which may lead to decreased profit margins. As a result, the Company's
17
results of operations, business, financial condition, or prospects could be adversely affected by these supply chain disruptions, or any future supply chain disruptions.

In the Company’s lottery business, the Company transmits 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 the Company to obtain other communication services, including other cellular or satellite access. In some cases, the Company employs backup systems to limit the Company’s exposure in the event of such a failure. Therefore, the Company 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 on favorable terms or in a timely manner. While cellular and satellite failures are infrequent, the operation of each is outside of the Company’s control.

The Company’s management believes that if a supply contract with one of its vendors were to be terminated or breached, it may take time to replace such vendor under some circumstances and any replacement parts, components, or subassemblies may be more expensive, which could reduce the Company’s operating margins. Depending on a number of factors, including the Company’s available inventory of replacement parts, components or subassemblies, the time it takes to replace a vendor may result in a delay for a customer. Further, supply chain constraints and shortages could cause the Company’s existing vendors to be unable to meet supply commitments, which may cause delays in the Company’s ability to meet its contractually committed delivery schedules. Generally, if the Company fails to meet its delivery schedules under its contracts, it may be subject to substantial penalties or liquidated damages, or contract termination, which in turn could adversely affect the Company's results of operations, business, financial condition, or prospects.

Failure to attract, retain and motivate personnel may adversely affect the Company's ability to compete.

The Company's ability to attract and retain key management, product development, finance, marketing, and research and development personnel, and its ability to attract and maintain a diverse workforce, is directly linked to the Company's continued success. In all of the industries in which the Company operates, the market for qualified executives and highly-skilled technical workers is intensely competitive, and increasing competition for talent and changing expectations of current and prospective employees pose new challenges relating to the attraction and retention of key personnel. The loss of key employees or an inability to hire a sufficient number of technical staff could limit the Company's ability to develop successful products and could cause delays in getting new products to the market.

The Company’s business prospects and future success rely heavily upon the integrity of its employees, directors, and agents.

The Company strives to set exacting standards of personal integrity for its employees, directors and agents and its reputation in this regard is an important factor in its business dealings with lottery and other governmental agencies. For this reason, an allegation or a finding of improper conduct on the Company’s part, or on the part of one or more of its current or former employees, directors or agents, or the failure to detect fraudulent activity by employees in a timely manner, could have a material adverse effect upon the Company’s results of operations, business, financial condition, or prospects, including its ability to retain or renew existing contracts or obtain new contracts.

The Company has taken measures to review its operational systems and processes designed to prevent fraudulent activities and remains focused on ensuring its business is conducted at the highest levels of integrity. Nevertheless, potential investigations and other governmental reviews and inspections (including any resulting adverse impact on the perceived integrity and security of the Company’s products and systems) could have a material adverse effect upon the Company’s results of operations, business, financial condition, or prospects, including its ability to retain or renew existing contracts or obtain new contracts.

The success of the Company’s business is dependent on customers’ confidence in the integrity of the Company’s products and systems.

The real and perceived integrity and security of the Company’s products and systems are critical to its ability to attract customers and players. In the event of an actual or alleged defect in a Company product, the Company’s existing and prospective customers may lose confidence in the integrity and security of the Company’s products and systems. Such a failure could have a material adverse effect upon the Company’s results of operations, business, financial condition or prospects, including its ability to attract new customers and retain its existing customers.

18
The Company and its operations are subject to cyberattacks and cybersecurity risks which may have an adverse effect on its business and results of operations and result in increasing costs to minimize these risks.

The Company's business involves the storage and transmission of confidential business and personal information, including trade secrets, customer information, and other sensitive information, and theft, security breaches, or unauthorized access of a Company system may expose the Company to a risk of loss of, or improper use and disclosure of, such information, which may result in significant litigation expenses, liability exposure, reputational harm, and loss of consumer confidence in the integrity and security of the Company’s products and systems. The Company has developed an information security management system (the “ISMS”) designed to safeguard the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of all physical and electronic information assets and ensure that regulatory, operational, and contractual requirements are fulfilled. Cyberattacks on businesses, including those targeting the gaming industry, are becoming more frequent and increasingly more difficult to anticipate and prevent due to their rapidly evolving nature, and the Company believes that risks and exposures related to cybersecurity will remain high for the foreseeable future. While the Company monitors risks from cybersecurity threats, and has identified, reported, and managed cybersecurity incidents in the past, including the incident disclosed by the Company in November 2024, we are not aware of any cybersecurity incidents occurring during the reporting period that have, to date, materially affected the Company, including its business strategy, results of operations, or financial condition; however, there can be no guarantee that the Company will not experience a material cybersecurity incident in the future.

Within the ISMS, the Company maintains policies, procedures, and controls designed to prevent, detect, and mitigate the potential negative effects of malware attacks, phishing attacks, password attacks, “Man-in-the-Middle” attacks, Denial-of-Service attacks, and other cybersecurity risks. The Company periodically reviews these elements of the ISMS for continued effectiveness, incorporating updates to reflect new business realities and changes to the Company’s risk profile. However, despite these efforts, the Company has experienced cyberattacks in the past and may not be able to prevent or detect every cyberattack or incident or reduce the negative effects they may cause.

Failure, compromise, or breach of the Company’s security measures that results in the release of confidential business and/or personal information could seriously harm the Company’s reputation and have a materially adverse effect on the results of operations, business, financial condition, or prospects of the Company and the Company’s customers. Additionally, cyberattacks could also compromise trade secrets and other sensitive information and result in such information being disclosed to others and becoming less valuable, which could have a material adverse effect upon the Company’s results of operations, business, financial condition, or prospects. The Company’s security measures may be breached due to employee error, malfeasance, system errors, or vulnerabilities, including the vulnerabilities of the Company’s subcontractors, vendors, suppliers, or otherwise. Because the techniques used to obtain unauthorized access, disable or degrade service, or sabotage systems change frequently, become more sophisticated, and often are not recognized until launched against a target, the Company may be unable to anticipate these techniques or to implement adequate preventative measures.

Though the Company maintains first and third-party cybersecurity insurance coverage in an attempt to mitigate cybersecurity risks, such policies may not be sufficient to mitigate all the potential negative effects of a cyberattack or incident that occurs.

Technology failures may disrupt the Company’s business and have an adverse effect on its results of operations.

The Company’s success depends on its ability to avoid, detect, replicate, and correct software and hardware defects and fraudulent manipulation of its products and internal information technology systems and applications. The Company incorporates security features into the design of its products which are designed to prevent its customers and players from being defrauded. The Company also monitors its internal and external software and hardware in an effort to avoid, detect and correct any technical errors or vulnerabilities. However, there can be no guarantee that the Company’s security features or technical efforts will continue to be effective in the future.

In addition, any disruption in the Company’s network or telecommunications services, or those of third parties that the Company uses in its operations, could affect the Company’s ability to operate its systems, which could result in reduced revenues and customer downtime. The Company’s network and databases of business and customer information, including intellectual property and other proprietary business information and those of third parties the Company uses, are susceptible to outages due to fire, floods, power loss, break-ins, cyberattacks, network penetration, data privacy or security breaches, denial of service attacks, and similar events, including inadvertent dissemination of information due to increased use of social media. Disruptions with such systems could result in a wide range of negative outcomes, including devaluation of the Company’s intellectual property, increased expenditures on data security, and costly litigation and potential payment of liquidated damages, each of which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, business, financial condition, or prospects.

19
Financial Risks

Covenants in the Company’s debt agreements may limit its ability to pay dividends, repurchase shares and operate its business, and the Company’s breach of such covenants could materially and adversely affect its results of operations, business, financial condition, or prospects.

Certain of the Company’s debt agreements require that it comply with covenants that may limit the Company’s ability to:

• return capital to shareholders either through the payment of dividends and/or share repurchases;
• raise additional capital, including the issuance of debt;
• react to industry changes or economic conditions;
• acquire assets of other companies or acquire, merge or consolidate with other companies;
• dispose of assets;
• manage interest rate risk on its variable rate debt; and
• grant security interests in its assets.

The Company’s ability to comply with these covenants may be affected by events beyond its control, such as prevailing economic, financial, regulatory and industry conditions, and these covenants may limit its ability to react to market conditions or take advantage of potential business opportunities. Further, a breach of such covenants could, if not cured or waived, result in acceleration of its indebtedness, result in the enforcement of security interests or force the Company into bankruptcy or liquidation. Such a breach or any failure to otherwise timely repay outstanding indebtedness could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, business, financial condition or prospects.

The Company may incur additional impairment charges.

The Company reviews its long-lived and amortizable intangible assets for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. The Company tests 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 the Company’s goodwill, amortizable intangible assets, or other non-amortizing assets may not be recoverable, include a decline in the Company’s stock price and market capitalization, reduced future cash flow estimates, and slower growth rates in industry segments in which the Company participates. The Company may be required to record a significant charge in its Consolidated Financial Statements during the period in which any impairment of goodwill or intangible assets is determined, which would negatively affect the Company’s results of operations. While during the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company did not identify any events or circumstances that would indicate that it is more likely than not that the fair value was less than its carrying amount, the Company cannot provide assurance that future changes will not require additional material impairment charges in the future.

The establishment and utilization of alternative reference rates may increase the amount of interest the Company pays with respect to floating rate indebtedness denominated in U.S. dollars.

As of December 31, 2024, $343 million of the Company’s outstanding indebtedness had an interest rate which was calculated with reference to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”), the principal replacement reference rate for the U.S. dollar London Inter-Bank Offered Rate (“USD LIBOR”). SOFR has a limited history, having been first published in April 2018. There is no assurance that SOFR will perform in the same or similar way as USD LIBOR would have performed, that SOFR will be a suitable replacement for USD LIBOR, or that the replacement of USD LIBOR with SOFR will not increase the amount of interest that the Company pays with respect to floating rate indebtedness denominated in U.S. dollars.

Fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates affect our reported operating results in U.S. dollar terms.

Revenue generated and expenses incurred by our subsidiaries are often denominated in the currencies of the local countries. As a result, our consolidated U.S. dollar financial statements are subject to fluctuations due to changes in exchange rates when the financial results of our international subsidiaries are translated from local currencies into U.S. dollars. In addition, our financial results are subject to changes in exchange rates that impact the settlement of transactions in non-functional currencies. Our primary foreign currency exchange rate exposure arises from translating Euros into U.S. dollars.

Global events, including geopolitical developments, fluctuating commodity prices, trade tariff developments, and inflation, have caused and/or contributed to, and may in the future cause or contribute to, economic uncertainty and uncertainty about the interest rate environment. These factors could amplify the volatility of currency fluctuations, as has been the case in
20
jurisdictions including Argentina in recent years. Therefore, fluctuations in the value of foreign currencies may impact our operating results when translated into U.S. dollars. Such fluctuations may also impact our ability to accurately predict our future results. Although we maintain a hedging program to mitigate some of this volatility and related risks, there can be no assurance that the hedging program will be effective in offsetting the adverse financial impacts that may result from unfavorable movements in foreign currency exchange rates.

Risks related to the Loyalty Voting Structure

The concentrated voting power held by De Agostini, and the Parent’s loyalty voting structure, may limit other shareholders' ability to influence corporate decisions.

At February 20, 2025, De Agostini had an economic interest in the Parent of approximately 42.28% (excluding treasury shares) and, due to its election to exercise the Special Voting Shares associated with its ordinary shares pursuant to the loyalty plan, a voting interest in the Parent of approximately 59.43% of the total voting rights (excluding treasury shares). See “ Item 7. Major Shareholders and Related Party Transactions ” for additional information. This shareholder may make decisions with which other shareholders may disagree, including, among other things, delaying, discouraging, or preventing a change of control of the Company or a potential merger, consolidation, tender offer, takeover, or other business combination and may also prevent or discourage shareholders’ initiatives aimed at changes in the Parent’s management.

The tax consequences of the loyalty voting structure are uncertain.

No statutory, judicial, or administrative authority has provided public guidance in respect of the Special Voting Shares of the Parent and as a result, the tax consequences of owning such shares are uncertain. The fair market value of the Parent's Special Voting Shares , which may be relevant to the tax consequences of owning, acquiring, or disposing of such shares, is a factual determination and is not governed by any guidance that directly addresses such a situation. Because, among other things, (i) the Special Voting Shares are not transferable (other than in very limited circumstances as provided for in the loyalty voting structure), (ii) in a winding up or otherwise, the holders of the Special Voting Shares will only be entitled to receive out of the Parent's assets available for distribution to its shareholders, in aggregate, $1, and (iii) loss of the entitlement to instruct the nominee on how to vote in respect of Special Voting Shares will occur without consideration, the Parent believes and intends to take the position that the value of each special voting share is minimal. However, the relevant tax authorities could assert that the value of the Special Voting Shares as determined by the Parent is incorrect. Shareholders are urged to consult their own tax advisors with respect to treatment of Special Voting Shares . See “ Item 10. E Taxation ” for additional information.

The loyalty voting structure may affect the liquidity of the Parent's ordinary shares and reduce their ordinary share price.

The loyalty voting structure may limit the liquidity and adversely affect the trading prices of the Parent's ordinary shares. The loyalty voting structure is intended to reward shareholders for maintaining long-term share ownership by granting persons holding ordinary shares continuously for at least three years the option to elect to receive Special Voting Shares . The Special Voting Shares cannot be traded and, immediately prior to the deregistration of ordinary shares from the register of loyalty shares, any corresponding Special Voting Shares shall cease to confer any voting rights in connection with such Special Voting Shares . This loyalty voting structure is designed to encourage a stable shareholder base, but it may deter trading by those shareholders who are interested in gaining or retaining the Special Voting Shares . Therefore, the loyalty voting structure may reduce liquidity in the Parent's ordinary shares and adversely affect their trading price.

Risks related to the Company’s Sale of IGT Gaming

Risks related to the IGT Gaming business.

IGT Gaming, which is classified as discontinued operations, has various risks that could adversely impact its operations and financial performance, including:

• Adverse changes in discretionary consumer spending and behavior, with slower growth or decline in the gaming markets leading to lower revenues;
• Its ability to develop and manage frequent introductions of innovative products and respond to technical changes, including the protection of its intellectual property;
• Lower barriers of entry into the gaming industry and the potential pricing pressures for products and services;
• Investigations by governmental and licensing entities resulting in adverse findings or negative publicity;
• Negative perceptions and publicity surrounding the gaming industry could lead to increased gaming regulation;
21
• Its ability to attract and retain key personnel;
• Supply chain risk and the potential adverse effect on manufacturing and financial performance; and
• Technology failures and cyberattacks and cybersecurity risks.

If the Company does not complete the sale of IGT Gaming to Apollo Funds, the Company would retain this business and IGT Gaming would be moved out of discontinued operations. Please see the Company’s Annual Report on Form 20-F filed for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, filed with the SEC on March 12, 2024, for further disclosure of the risks associated with IGT Gaming.

The Company may not complete the sale of IGT Gaming to Apollo Funds within the time frame anticipated or at all.

As described in “Item 4. B. – Business Overview ” and in “Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements—1. Description of Business and 3. Discontinued Operations and Assets Held for Sale ” included in “Item 18. Financial Statements” in this report, in July 2024, the Parent and Everi entered into the Proposed Transaction with the Buyer. Following the closing of the Proposed Transaction, the Combined Company will be privately owned, and the Parent’s shareholders will have no further equity ownership of IGT Gaming, except for De Agostini’s investment referenced within “Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”. The Proposed Transaction will be subject to the satisfaction of a number of customary conditions, including, among others: (i) final approval by Everi’s stockholders, which was received on November 14, 2024; (ii) clearance of U.S. anti-trust review under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, with the waiting period having expired at 11:59 p.m., Eastern U.S. time, on November 20, 2024; and (iii) receipt of regulatory approvals from gaming regulators in the jurisdictions where the Combined Company will operate. While the Proposed Transaction is expected to be completed by the end of the third quarter of 2025, the failure to satisfy all of the required conditions could delay the completion of the Proposed Transaction or prevent it from occurring at all.

Transactions of this nature are complex, and unanticipated developments or changes, including, among other things, changes in law, the macroeconomic environment, market conditions, including those affecting the financing required for the Proposed Transaction to proceed, regulatory or geopolitical conditions, or natural disasters may affect our ability to complete the Proposed Transaction as currently expected and within the anticipated time frame or at all. Additionally, the Transaction Agreements contain specified termination rights for the Buyer, Everi, and the Parent, as described in Item 10.C Material Contracts .

Any changes to the Proposed Transaction or delay in completing the Proposed Transaction could cause the Company not to realize some or all of the expected benefits or realize them on a different timeline than expected. In addition, the terms and conditions of the required regulatory authorizations and consents that are granted, if any, may impose requirements, limitations, or costs, or may materially delay the completion of the Proposed Transaction. If the completion of the Proposed Transaction is delayed or does not occur, this could adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, ability to pursue alternative transactions, and reputation.

The pendency of the Proposed Transaction could adversely affect our business and operations.

Whether or not the Proposed Transaction is completed, the Company’s business and operations may face material challenges in connection with the Proposed Transaction, including, without limitation:
• the diversion of management’s attention from ongoing business concerns as a result of the devotion of management’s attention to the Proposed Transaction;
• maintaining employee morale and retaining key management and other employees;
• retaining existing business and operational relationships, including with customers, suppliers, employees, and other counterparties, and attracting new business and operational relationships;
• execution and related risks in connection with financing transactions undertaken by the Company in connection with the Proposed Transaction;
• dis-synergy costs, costs of any restructuring transactions (including taxes), and other significant costs and expenses; and
• potential negative reactions from the financial markets if the Company fails to complete the Proposed Transaction as currently expected, within the anticipated time frame or at all.

Any of these factors could adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, and/or the price of our ordinary shares. The Proposed Transaction is expected to close by the end of the third quarter of 2025.
22
Costs associated with the Proposed Transaction may be higher than anticipated.

We have incurred significant costs to date in connection with the review of strategic alternatives for IGT Gaming, including the Proposed Transaction, and we expect to incur significant additional costs in connection with the Proposed Transaction, including the separation costs, transaction costs, tax liabilities, legal and regulatory fees, and other costs that our management team believes are necessary to execute the Proposed Transaction. Certain of these costs will likely be higher than originally anticipated as a result of the July 2024 entry into the Transaction Agreements, which extended the anticipated timeline to closing and changed the structure of the planned transaction. The incurrence of these costs has impacted our financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows for the third quarter and year-to-date of 2024, and could adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows in future periods in which they are incurred.

There can be no assurance that the market price of the Parent's ordinary shares after the Proposed Transaction will be equal to or greater than the market price before the Proposed Transaction.

There can be no assurance that the market price per share of the Parent’s ordinary shares after the Proposed Transaction will rise or remain constant. If the Company completes the Proposed Transaction and the market price of the Parent’s ordinary shares declines, the percentage decline as an absolute number and as a percentage of the Parent’s overall market capitalization may be greater than would occur in the absence of the Proposed Transaction. In many cases, the market price of a share of such issuer’s common stock following separation, divestiture, or combination transactions are lower than they were before the consummation of such transactions, and the liquidity of the Parent’s ordinary shares could potentially be affected by any decreases in share price and investor sentiment following the consummation of the Proposed Transaction.

If the Proposed Transaction is completed, the Company’s operational and financial profile will change, and it will be a smaller, less diversified business than exists today.

The Proposed Transaction will result in the Company being a smaller, less diversified company with a more limited business that is concentrated in the lottery sector. Of note, the Company’s Global Lottery business following the Proposed Transaction will be significantly more reliant on its facilities management contracts and lottery management agreements in the U.S. and Italy. As a result, the Company may be more vulnerable to changing market conditions, which could have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, and results of operations. In addition, the diversification of revenues, costs, and cash flows will diminish, such that the Company’s results of operations, cash flows, working capital, effective tax rate, and financing requirements may be subject to increased volatility and its ability to fund capital expenditures and investments, pay dividends, and service debt may be diminished.

The Proposed Transaction may not achieve the intended benefits and may expose the Company to potential risks and liabilities.

The Parent believes, among other things, that the Proposed Transaction could provide more value to its shareholders than other potential strategic options for IGT Gaming. The Parent may not benefit as expected from the increased focus on its core business and the simpler business model made possible by the Proposed Transaction.

If the Proposed Transaction is completed, there may be changes in our shareholder base, which may cause the price of the Parent’s ordinary shares to fluctuate.

Investors holding the Parent’s ordinary shares may hold such ordinary shares because of a decision to invest in a company that operates in multiple gaming markets with a diversified portfolio. If the Proposed Transaction is completed, shares of the Parent’s ordinary shares will represent an investment in a business concentrated in the lottery sector. These changes may not match some shareholders’ investment strategies, which could cause them to sell their shares of the Parent’s ordinary shares, and excessive selling pressure could cause the market price to decrease prior to and following the consummation of the Proposed Transaction.

De Agostini may have interests in the Proposed Transaction that are different from the interests of the Parent’s other shareholders.

De Agostini, the Parent’s controlling shareholder, has committed to make a minority equity investment in an indirect parent of the Buyer (together with its subsidiaries following the closing of the Proposed Transaction, “Newco”) at the closing of the Proposed Transaction, subject to certain conditions. As a result of this proposed investment in Newco, De Agostini may have
23
interests in the Proposed Transaction that may be different from the interests of the Parent’s other shareholders. As of February 20, 2025, De Agostini had an economic interest in the Parent of approximately 42.28% (excluding treasury shares) and, due to its election to exercise the Special Voting Shares associated with its ordinary shares pursuant to the loyalty plan, a voting interest in the Parent of approximately 59.43% of the total voting rights (excluding treasury shares). As a result of its equity interests in the Parent and its proposed interest in the Combined Company, De Agostini may make decisions with which other shareholders may disagree or seek to influence the Company’s decisions or conduct with respect to the Proposed Transaction.

Item 4. Information on the Company
A.        History and Development of the Company

International Game Technology PLC was organized in 2014 as a public limited company under the laws of England and Wales. The Parent’s principal office is located at 10 Finsbury Square, Third Floor, London EC2A 1AF, United Kingdom, telephone number +44 (0) 203 866 1240. The Parent’s agent for service in the U.S. is CT Corporation System, 701 S. Carson Street - Suite 200, Carson City, Nevada 89701 (telephone number: +1 518 433 4740). The Company conducts business through various subsidiaries and variable interest entities (see “Item 4. C. – Organizational Structure ”), and the Parent is publicly-traded on the NYSE under the symbol “IGT”. In connection with the Proposed Transaction, the Company will rebrand under a new name and stock ticker symbol.
Capital Expenditures and Divestitures
For a description, including the amount invested, of the Company’s principal capital expenditures (including interests in other companies) for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022, see “Item 5. B. Liquidity and Capital Resources—Capital Expenditures .”
For a description of the Company’s principal divestitures for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022, see “Item 5.A. Operating Results .”
On July 26, 2024, the Parent and Spinco, entered into definitive agreements with Everi, Buyer, and Buyer Sub (the “Transaction Agreements”), pursuant to which the Parent will separate all of the assets and substantially all of the liabilities of IGT Gaming from the Global Lottery business such that they are owned and assumed directly or indirectly by Spinco (the “Spinco Business”), and then sell the Spinco Business to Buyer in an all-cash transaction (the “Proposed Transaction”). Refer to the “Separation and Sale of IGT Gaming” below and the “Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements—3. Discontinued Operations and Assets Held for Sale” for more information. The Company has not made, nor does it have in progress, any other capital expenditures or divestitures that were not in the ordinary course of business.
Separation and Sale of IGT Gaming
As previously disclosed in the Company's 2023 Form 20-F, on February 28, 2024, the Parent entered into definitive agreements (the “February 2024 Agreements”) with Everi, pursuant to which the Parent planned to separate IGT Gaming by way of a taxable spin-off to the Parent’s shareholders and then immediately combine such businesses with Everi. The transaction contemplated by the February 2024 Agreements was expected to close in late 2024 or early 2025.

On July 26, 2024, the Parent and Spinco entered into the Proposed Transaction with Everi, the Buyer and the Buyer Sub that values the acquired businesses at approximately $6.3 billion on a combined basis. Under the terms of the Transaction Agreements, the Parent will receive a purchase price before transaction costs and other customary closing adjustments of $4.05 billion in cash for IGT Gaming. In connection with the entry into the Transaction Agreements, the February 2024 Agreements were terminated. Following closing of the Proposed Transaction, IGT Gaming and Everi will be privately owned companies that are part of one combined enterprise, and the Parent’s shareholders will have no further equity ownership of IGT Gaming, except for De Agostini’s investment referenced below. The Proposed Transaction, which is expected to be completed by the end of the third quarter of 2025, will be subject to the satisfaction of a number of customary closing conditions, including, among others: (i) final approval by Everi’s stockholders, which was received on November 14, 2024; (ii) clearance of U.S. anti-trust review under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, with the waiting period
24
having expired on November 20, 2024; and (iii) receipt of regulatory approvals from gaming regulators in the jurisdictions where the Combined Company will operate.

De Agostini, the controlling shareholder of the Company, has entered into an agreement with an affiliate of the Buyer, pursuant to which De Agostini will make a minority investment in an indirect parent of the Buyer that will own all of the outstanding units of the Combined Company following the closing of the Proposed Transaction.

Beginning in the third quarter of 2024, we have reflected the financial results of IGT Gaming as discontinued operations in our consolidated statements of operations and reflected the assets and liabilities of IGT Gaming as held for sale in our consolidated balance sheets, for all periods presented. Accordingly, we report our results of continuing operations (i.e., what was formerly the Global Lottery segment) as a pure-play lottery business, representing the services and products we expect to continue to provide upon closing of the Proposed Transaction. Unless otherwise noted, amounts and disclosures included herein relate to our continuing operations.

Products and Services - Continuing Operations

Lottery Business

The lottery business has global scale to complement its geographic and customer diversification, providing B2C and B2B products and services to customers across six continents, supplying a unique set of lottery solutions to nearly 90 customers worldwide, including to 36 of the 48 U.S. lotteries (including the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and U.S. Virgin Islands). Lottery customers frequently designate their revenues for particular purposes, such as education, economic development, conservation, transportation, programs for senior citizens and veterans, health care, sports facilities, capital construction projects, cultural activities, tax relief, and others. Many governments have become increasingly dependent on their lotteries as revenues from lottery ticket sales are often a significant source of funding for these programs. As of December 31, 2024, we operated under operating contracts or facility management contracts ("FMCs") in 14 jurisdictions, excluding Italy and the U.S.

Land-Based Lottery

Land-based lottery products and services are provided through operating contracts, FMCs, lottery management agreements (“LMAs”), and product sales contracts. In most jurisdictions, lottery authorities award contracts through a competitive bidding
25
process. Typical service contracts range from five (5) to ten (10) years in duration, often with multiple multi-year extension options. After the expiration of the initial or extended contract term, a lottery authority generally may either seek to negotiate further extensions or commence a new competitive bidding process. From time to time, there are challenges or other proceedings relating to the awarding of the lottery contracts. Upon being awarded a contract, certain customers may require the Company to pay an upfront fee for the right to exclusively manage their lottery.

The Company designs, sells, leases, and operates a complete suite of point-of-sale machines that are electronically linked with a centralized transaction processing system that reconciles lottery funds between the retailer and the lottery authority. The Company provides and operates highly secure, lottery transaction processing systems that are capable of processing a significant number of transactions per minute. The Company deploys more than 400,000 point-of-sale devices to lottery customers and lotteries that it supports worldwide. The Company also produces high-quality instant ticket games and provides printing services such as instant ticket marketing plans and graphic design, programming, packaging, shipping, and delivery services.

The Company has developed and continues to develop new lottery games and installs a range of new lottery distribution devices, all of which are designed to drive responsible same-store sales growth for its customers.

In connection with its delivery of lottery services, the Company actively advises its customers on growth strategies. Depending on the type of contract and the jurisdiction, the Company also provides marketing services, including retail optimization and lottery brand awareness campaigns. The Company works closely with its lottery customers and retailers to help retailers sell lottery games more effectively. These programs include product merchandising and display recommendations, a selection of appropriate lottery product mix for each location, and account reviews to plan lottery sales growth strategies. The Company leverages years of experience accumulated from being the exclusive licensee for the Italian Gioco del Lotto lottery and the Italian Scratch & Win (Gratta e Vinci) instant ticket lottery, two of the world’s largest lotteries. This lottery B2C expertise in Italy, which includes management of all the activities along the lottery value chain, allows the Company to better serve B2B customers.

Instant Tickets

For instant ticket lotteries in Italy, instant tickets are available for sale at approximately 51,000 points of sale. As of December 31, 2024, the Company has provided instant ticket printing products and services to 31 customers in North America and 30 customers in international jurisdictions and has secured over 60 instant ticket service contracts. In recent years, the Company has also developed Infinity Instants™, a revolutionary digital instant ticket printing technology that offers a wide portfolio of unique content, producing more than 60 Infinity Instants™ games since 2022. These achievements highlight the Company’s ability to deliver innovative solutions and exceptional services across diverse geographic regions as a leading provider of high-quality printing services, which include instant ticket marketing plans and graphic design, programming, packaging, shipping and delivery services.

iLottery

The Company provides a complete suite of iLottery solutions and services and is a leading iLottery platform provider globally. The Company currently holds 12 iLottery platform contracts worldwide and provides e-Instant content to 14 customers. This, coupled with its professional expertise, allows lotteries to fully engage their players on any digital channel in regulated markets. Existing lottery game portfolios are extended to the digital channel to provide a spectrum of engaging content such as e-Instant tickets.

Customer Contracts

The Company operates in the highly regulated global lottery market, with a customer base of public and private entities that are secured on a contractual basis. With an established industry position, particularly in the land-based lottery space, the Company’s competitor base remains largely static year-to-year.

Lottery services are provided through operator contracts, LMAs, FMCs and product sales contracts. The Company has also entered into certain material customer contracts, including the Italian Gioco del Lotto license (“Italian Lotto”) and the Italian Scratch and Win (Gratta e Vinci) lottery license.

26
Operating and Facilities Management Contracts

The majority of the Company’s revenue in the Lottery business comes from operating contracts and FMCs.

Since 1998, and for a term expiring in 2025, the Company has been the exclusive licensee for the Italian Lotto (management of operations commenced in 1994). Beginning in November of 2016, the Company’s exclusive license for the Italian Lotto includes purely financial partners as part of a joint venture. Lottoitalia s.r.l. (“Lottoitalia”), a joint venture company among IGT Lottery S.p.A., Italian Gaming Holding a.s., Arianna 2001 (an entity associated with the Federation of Italian Tobacconists), and Novomatic Italia, is the exclusive manager of the Italian Lotto game pursuant to the Italian Lotto license. Lottoitalia is 61.5% owned by IGT Lottery S.p.A. The Company, through Lottoitalia, manages the activities along the lottery value chain, such as creating games, determining payouts, collecting wagers through its network, paying out prizes, managing all accounting and other back-office functions, running advertising and promotions, operating data transmission networks and processing centers, training staff, providing retailers with assistance and supplying materials including play slips, tickets and receipts, and marketing and point-of-sale materials for the game. On January 10, 2025 , the ADM launched the tender for the Gioco del Lotto game license. The Company has continued to retain the Italian Lotto license through multiple rebid cycles over the past 26 years, and intends to submit a competitive bid for the new license.

Since 2004, and for a term expiring in 2028, the Company also has been the exclusive licensee for the Scratch and Win (Gratta e Vinci) instant ticket lottery through Lotterie Nazionali S.r.l., a joint venture 64.0% owned by the Parent’s subsidiary IGT Lottery S.p.A., with the remainder directly and indirectly owned by Scientific Games Corporation and Arianna 2001. As of December 31, 2024, the revenue weighted-average remaining term of the Company’s existing Italian licenses was 2.4 years.

The Company’s FMCs typically require the Company to design, install, and operate the lottery system and retail terminal network for an initial term, which is typically five (5) to ten (10) years. The Company’s FMCs are granted on an exclusive basis and usually contain extension options under the same or similar terms and conditions, generally ranging from one (1) to five (5) years. Under a typical FMC, the Company maintains ownership of the technology and equipment, and is responsible for capital investments throughout the duration of the contract, although the investments are generally concentrated during the early years, while the lottery authority maintains, in most instances, responsibility for the overall lottery operations. The Company provides a wide range of services to lottery customers related to the technology, equipment, and facilities such as hosting, maintenance, marketing, and other support services. The Company generally provides its lottery customers retailer terminal and communication network equipment through operating leases. In return, the Company typically receives fees based upon a percentage of the sales of all lottery tickets, including draw-based or instant ticket games, though under certain of its agreements, the Company may receive fixed fees for certain goods or services. In limited instances, the Company provides instant tickets and lottery systems and services under the same FMC. As of December 31, 2024, the Company’s largest FMCs by annual service revenue were Texas, California, New York, Georgia, and Florida, and the revenue weighted-average remaining term of the Company’s existing FMCs was 5.9 years (8.0 years including available extensions). For existing U.S. FMCs alone, the Company’s revenue weighted-average remaining term was 6.1 years (8.1 years including available extensions) as of December 31, 2024. Also, as of February 20, 2025, the Company operated under operating contracts or FMCs in 14 jurisdictions outside of Italy and the U.S.

Operating contracts and FMCs often require the Company to pay substantial monetary liquidated damages in the event of non-performance by the Company. The Company’s revenues from operating contracts and FMCs are generally service fees paid to the Company directly by the lottery authority based on a percentage of such lottery’s wagers or ticket sales. The Company categorizes revenue from operating contracts and FMCs as service revenue from “Operating and facilities management contracts, net” as described in “Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements—4. Revenue Recognition ” included in “Item 18. Financial Statements.”

Another form of operating contract is an LMA. Under an LMA, the Company manages, within parameters determined by the lottery customer, the core lottery functions, including the lottery systems and the majority of the day-to-day activities along the lottery value chain. This includes collecting wagers, managing accounting and other back-office functions, running advertising and promotions, operating data transmission networks and processing centers, training staff, providing retailers with assistance, and supplying materials for the games. LMAs also include a separate FMC, pursuant to which the Company leases certain hardware and equipment, and provides access to software and support services. The Company provides lottery management services in New Jersey as part of a joint venture where the Company manages a wide range of the lottery’s day-to-day operations as well as provides marketing and sales services under a license valid through June 2029, and in Indiana through a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Parent under a license valid through June 2031. The Company’s revenues from LMAs include potential incentives or penalties based on achievement of or failure to achieve contractual metrics, respectively, and, with respect to the supply agreements, are based generally on a percentage of wagers. The Company categorizes revenue from
27
LMAs as service revenue from “Operating and facilities management contracts, net” as described in “Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements—4. Revenue Recognition ” included in “Item 18. Financial Statements.”

Instant Ticket Services Contracts

As an end-to-end provider of instant tickets and related services, the Company produces high-quality instant ticket games and provides ancillary services such as instant ticket marketing plans and graphic design, programming, packaging, shipping, and delivery services. Instant tickets are sold at numerous types of retail outlets but most successfully in grocery and convenience stores.

Instant ticket services contracts are priced based on a percentage of ticket sales revenues or on a price per unit basis. Government-sponsored lotteries grant printing contracts on both an exclusive and non-exclusive basis where there is typically one primary vendor and one or more secondary vendors. A primary contract permits the vendor supply of the lottery’s ticket printing needs and includes the complete production process from concept development through production and shipment. It also typically includes marketing and research support. A primary printing contract can include any or all of the following services: warehousing, distribution, telemarketing, and sales/field support. A secondary printing contract includes providing backup printing services and alternate product sources.

As of February 20, 2025, the Company provided instant ticket printing products and services to 31 customers in North America and 30 customers in international jurisdictions. The instant ticket production business is highly competitive and subject to strong, price-based competition. The Company categorizes revenue from instant ticket printing contracts that are not part of an operator or LMA contract as product sales from “Product sales” as described in “Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements—4. Revenue Recognition ” included in “Item 18. Financial Statements.”

Product Sales and Services Contracts

Under product sales and services contracts, the Company assembles, sells, delivers, and installs turnkey lottery systems or lottery equipment, provides related services, and licenses related software. The lottery authority maintains, in most instances, responsibility for lottery operations. The Company sells additional machines and central computers to expand existing systems or replace existing equipment and provides ancillary maintenance and support services related to the systems, equipment sold, and software licensed. The Company categorizes revenue from product sales and services contracts on a case-by-case basis as either service revenue or product sales from “Systems, software, and other” or “Product sales” respectively, as described in “Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements—4. Revenue Recognition ” included in “Item 18. Financial Statements.”

Commercial Services Contracts

The Company develops innovative technology and offers commercial and payment services over a standalone network. Leveraging its distribution network and secure transaction processing experience, the Company offers high-volume processing of commercial and payment transactions including: prepaid cellular telephone recharges, bill payments, e-vouchers, electronic tax payments, stamp duty services and prepaid card recharges. These services are primarily offered outside of North America and were substantially reduced by the sale of the Italian commercial services business on September 14, 2022, as further described in “Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements—3. Discontinued Operations and Assets Held for Sale ” included in “Item 18. Financial Statements”. The Company categorizes revenue from commercial services as service revenue from “Systems, software, and other” as described in “Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements—4. Revenue Recognition ” included in “Item 18. Financial Statements.”

Products and Services - Discontinued Operations

IGT Gaming
IGT Gaming has full responsibility for the worldwide land-based gaming business, iGaming business, and sports betting business, including sales, product management, studios, global manufacturing, operations, technology, and support.

7696581427785
For a further description of the principal services and products the Company provides, including a breakdown of the Company’s revenues by geographic market, see “Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects” and “Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements—3. Discontinued Operations and Assets Held for Sale, 4. Revenue Recognition, and 23. Segment Information ” included in “Item 18. Financial Statements”.

Seasonality

The Company generally experiences seasonality based on when contracts with customers are executed or extensions are negotiated and seasonal patterns in consumer demand impacting wagers. This seasonality is reflected, to a greater extent, in revenues from LMAs which include potential incentives or penalties based on achievement of or failure to achieve contractual metrics over the contract year due to the fact that these LMA incentives are estimated and accrued over the lotteries fiscal year. Lottery consumption may increase in December and around the holidays but decrease over the summer months due to the tendency of consumers to be on vacation during that time. Seasonal gaming trends generally show higher play levels in the spring and summer months and lower levels in the fall and winter months.
Source of Materials
The Company uses a variety of raw materials across its business. Metals, woods, plastics, glass, electronic components, and LCD screens are frequently used during the manufacturing of lottery terminals. The instant ticket printing facility consumes significant quantities of paper, toner, and ink throughout production. When ultimately delivering these goods to customers, the packaging process employs large amounts of paper, including cardboard. The Company generally has global material suppliers and uses multi-sourcing practices to promote component and raw material availability, quality assurance, and cost consciousness.

Product Development

The Company devotes resources to research and development of lottery products and services and incurred $45 million, $37 million, and $45 million of related expenses, excluding amortization of capitalized software, in 2024, 2023, and 2022, respectively. In addition to expensed R&D, a portion of the investment in R&D has been capitalized and recorded as Systems, equipment and other assets related to contracts, net or Intangible assets, net - Computer software, which is amortized to cost of services. The Company’s research and development efforts cover multiple creative and engineering disciplines for its business, including innovative retail solutions, hardware and software, creative lottery games and game content, and instant ticket printing technology and design. These products are created primarily by employee designers, engineers, and artists, as well as third-party content creators.
29

Product assembly operations primarily involve the configuration and assembly of electronic components, cables, harnesses, video monitors, and prefabricated parts purchased from outside sources.

Intellectual Property

The Company maintains a significant intellectual property portfolio comprised of patents, trademarks, copyrights, and other licensed rights, and the Company’s business depends in part on its ability to protect and enforce its intellectual property rights. The Company routinely obtains, retains, and expands licenses for popular intellectual property, such as Ghostbusters ® and the retention of licensing rights to the Wheel of Fortune ® franchise for continued lottery use as part of the Proposed Transaction. As of December 31, 2024, the Company held more than 400 patent applications and granted patents and more than 1,400 trademarks filed and registered worldwide.
The Company relies on trade secret protection, believing that its technical “know-how” and the creative skills of its personnel are of substantial importance to its success. Most of the Company’s products, such as its proprietary Cash Pop™ game, are marketed under trademarks and copyrights that provide product recognition and promote widespread acceptance. The Company seeks protection for its copyrights and trademarks in the U.S. and various foreign countries, where applicable, and uses intellectual property assets offensively and defensively to protect its innovation. The Company also has a program where it licenses its patents to others under terms designed to promote standardization in the lottery industry.

Software Development

The Company has developed software for use in the management of a range of lottery functions and products, including leveraging integration with third-party software components. Software developed by the Company is used in a variety of applications including: (i) in centralized systems for the management of lotteries and other commercial services; (ii) to enhance lottery functions connected to services provided through websites and mobile applications; and (iii) in a variety of back-office functions. Software developed by the Company is also used in machines for the management of lotteries.
Regulatory Framework
The lottery industry is subject to extensive and evolving governmental regulation in the U.S. and other jurisdictions.
A comprehensive network of internal and external resources and controls is required to achieve compliance with the broad governmental oversight of the Company’s business. The Company maintains a robust enterprise compliance program designed to ensure compliance with applicable requirements imposed in connection with its lottery activities, as well as legal requirements generally applicable to publicly traded companies in the U.S. The Company employs approximately 160 individuals to support global compliance, which is directed on a day-to-day basis by a senior executive. This includes approximately 90 employees within IGT Gaming, which is currently held for sale. The Company’s Legal department, in addition to outside experts, provide legal advice and support on compliance matters, as may be deemed necessary. The Global Compliance Governance Committee, comprised of employee and non-employee directors and a non-employee gaming law expert, oversees the enterprise compliance program under the supervision of the Board. Through these efforts, the Company seeks to assure both regulators and investors that its operations maintain the highest levels of integrity.
U.S. Lottery Regulations
Lotteries in the U.S. are regulated by state or other applicable law. There are currently 48 U.S. jurisdictions (including the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands) that authorize the operation of lotteries. Additionally, a few state lotteries offer internet instant ticket game sales to in-state lottery customers and several states allow subscription sales of draw games over the internet. The ongoing operations of lotteries and lottery operators are typically subject to extensive and broad regulation, which vary state-by-state. The awarding of lottery contracts and ongoing operations of lotteries in international jurisdictions are also extensively regulated, although international regulations typically vary from those prevailing in the U.S.
Lottery regulatory authorities generally exercise significant discretion, including with respect to: (i) the determination of the types of games played; (ii) the price of each wager; (iii) the manner in which the lottery is marketed; (iv) the selection of suppliers of equipment, technology, and services; and (v) the retailers of lottery products. To ensure the integrity of contract awards and lottery operations, most jurisdictions require detailed background disclosure on a continuous basis from vendors and their officers, directors, subsidiaries, affiliates, and principal stockholders. Background investigations of the vendors’ employees who will be directly responsible for the operation of lottery systems are also generally conducted. Certain
30
jurisdictions also require extensive personal and financial disclosure and background checks from persons and entities beneficially owning a specified percentage of a vendor’s securities.

Italian Lottery Regulations

The Company is subject to regulatory oversight by the ADM in Italy. As of December 31, 2024, the Company held licenses for: (i) the operation of the Italian Gioco del Lotto lottery; and (ii) the operation of the Italian Scratch and Win (Gratta e Vinci) instant ticket lottery. On January 10, 2025 , the ADM launched the tender for the Gioco del Lotto game license. The Company has continued to retain the Italian Lotto license through multiple rebid cycles over the past 26 years, and intends to submit a competitive bid for the new license.

Gaming in Italy is an activity reserved to the State and the Italian gaming sector’s regulations are subject to continuous changes. Any game that is carried out without proper authorization is illegal and subject to criminal penalties. Italian law grants the Ministry of Economy and Finance, through ADM, the power to introduce games and to manage gaming and betting activities directly or by granting licenses to qualified operators selected by means of public tenders as further explained below. The process of creating and granting gaming and betting licenses in Italy is heavily regulated.

Gaming and betting licenses are granted pursuant to a public tender procurement process. The license provides for all of the licensee’s requirements, in accordance with the provisions of Italian law and regulation, activities, and duties, including collection of the game’s revenues, the payment of winnings, the payment of the point of sale, payment of gaming taxes and all the other amounts due to the State, the drawings and the management of all of the technological assets to operate gaming, requirements of the technological infrastructure, and the relevant service levels.

Licenses are for a determined time period, generally nine (9) years, and are not renewable unless indicated in the licensing agreement; in such event, the renewal is not guaranteed to be on the same terms. In certain cases, the license may be extended at the option of the ADM on the same terms. Under other circumstances, which are typically defined in the licensing agreement, the license may be revoked or terminated. Most cases of early termination are related to the breach of the terms of the licensing agreement or the non-fulfillment of conditions of that agreement as well as the loss of the requirements prescribed by Italian law and regulation for the assignment and the maintenance of gaming licenses. In some cases, the early termination of the license allows the State to draw upon the entire amount of the performance bond presented by the licensee. Upon governmental request, the licensee has an obligation to transfer, free of charge, the assets subject of the license to the State at the end of the term of the license or in the event of its revocation or early termination. Each single license contains specific provisions enacting such general obligation.
IGT Gaming - Discontinued Operations

Gaming laws are based upon declarations of public policy designed to ensure that gaming is conducted honestly, competitively, and free of criminal and corruptive elements. While the regulatory requirements vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction, the majority typically require some form of licensing or regulatory suitability of operators, suppliers, manufacturers, and distributors as well as their major shareholders, officers, directors, and key employees. Regulators review many aspects of an applicant, including their financial stability, integrity, and business experience.
The assembly, sale, and distribution of gaming devices, equipment, and related technology and services are subject to federal, state, tribal, and local regulations in the U.S. and foreign jurisdictions. The initial regulatory requirement in most jurisdictions is to obtain the privileged licenses that allow the Company to participate in gaming activities. The Company’s operating entities and key personnel have obtained or applied for all known government licenses, permits, registrations, findings of suitability, and approvals necessary to assemble, distribute, and/or operate gaming products in all jurisdictions where the Company does business. Although many gaming regulations across jurisdictions are similar or overlapping, the Company must satisfy all conditions individually for each jurisdiction. Obtaining the required licenses at a corporate and individual level is a thorough process, in which the authorities review detailed information about the companies and individuals applying for suitability, as well as the processes used in the assembly, sale, and distribution of gaming devices. Once the license has been granted, regulatory oversight is designed to ensure that the licensee continues to operate with honesty and integrity.

Sustainability

As a global leader in the heavily regulated lottery industry, IGT has operations across a broad spectrum of regions and cultures. The Company is committed to growing its business responsibly by implementing a structured and dedicated governance framework, which includes high standards of ESG practices.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee (the “NCGC”) is responsible for overseeing the Company’s strategy on sustainability, monitoring implementation of the Company’s sustainability program, and reviewing the Company’s public disclosures regarding ESG matters (including the annual Sustainability Report and the Modern Slavery Statement). In conjunction with the Compensation Committee, the NCGC oversees engagement with investors/shareholders and proxy advisory firms on ESG matters, and shares with the Audit Committee responsibilities over relevant aspects of the Company’s climate-related reporting obligations. The most significant ESG-related updates are typically reported by the NCGC to the Board. Marco Sala serves as Executive Chair of the Board with specific responsibilities in addressing corporate governance, sustainability initiatives (including climate-related and environmental matters), and providing strategic guidance.

IGT seeks to serve the global lottery market with the utmost integrity and in accordance with disciplined ethical principles, by keeping sustainability and good corporate citizenship at the core of this ethos. The Sustainability Steering Committee (“SSC”), chaired by the Senior Vice President, Marketing, Communications and Sustainability (a direct report to the Company’s CEO) and comprised of IGT senior management and members of the Global Sustainability team, supports programs and initiatives that contribute to IGT’s sustainability strategy. The SSC cultivates a long-term vision and related objectives on sustainability, fosters a consistent sustainability approach across all regions and businesses, and increases communication on sustainability by sharing best practices at global and local levels. Responsible and sustainable practices encompass a broad spectrum of corporate sustainability initiatives, including energy use, environmental and human rights issues, together with policies and strategic initiatives, such as its Sustainability Policy, Responsible Gaming Policy, Human Rights Policy, Environmental Policy, Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Global Policy, Board Diversity Policy, Sustainable Procurement Policy and Community Giving & Engagement Policy.

In order to achieve these objectives, the SSC has developed the IGT Sustainability Plan to align the Company’s sustainability pillars with business priorities, under the theme of “Inspiring Global Transformation.” This plan, approved by the SSC in July 2022, aims at further integrating sustainability along the entire value chain and improving ESG impact in daily operations, including the identification of a comprehensive set of targets and actions to lead IGT in achieving its priorities and ambitions.

In 2023, IGT launched Sustainable Play TM , the program that represents IGT’s commitment to leading the lottery and gaming industries in global sustainability by aligning its sustainability plan and strategy and celebrating the Company’s dedication to its people and the planet. The IGT Global Sustainability Policy outlines goals and objectives in relation to ESG practices and defines the framework for sustainability at IGT. The Global Sustainability Policy provides a governing platform for the Company’s sustainability work in all key areas of business activity, including provision of services, work with suppliers, employee interactions, and industry-affecting activities.

The IGT Global Sustainability team leads project planning for the IGT Sustainability Plan, including the coordination of sustainability working groups, data collection, and reporting systems to fulfill criteria of ESG questionnaires. The Global Sustainability team also leads the development of a global community engagement strategy, the establishment of partnerships with non-profit associations, and the implementation of global responsible gaming initiatives consistent with industry standards. At the operating level, several working groups with employees from several departments are responsible for analyzing sustainability initiatives and defining an action plan.

The Company’s ongoing pledge to sustainable growth within the gaming industry includes the guiding principles set forth by the 2030 United Nations (“UN”) Agenda for Sustainable Development and its 17 Sustainable Development Goals (“SDGs”). Based on its business activities and its sustainability priorities, the Company has identified nine (9) SDGs as key areas of focus: (i) no poverty (SDG 1); (ii) good health and well-being (SDG 3); (iii) quality education (SDG 4); (iv) gender equality (SDG 5); (v) affordable and clean energy (SDG 7); (vi) decent work and economic growth (SDG 8); (vii) industry innovation and infrastructure (SDG 9); (viii) reduced inequalities (SDG 10); and (ix) climate action (SDG 13).

In early 2019, IGT joined the United Nations Global Compact (“UNGC”), which is widely recognized as the largest corporate responsibility initiative in the world for the development, implementation, and disclosure of responsible corporate policies and practices.

The Company’s global sustainability strategy is centered on four (4) pillars:

Valuing and Protecting Our People - The organizational climate of a business reflects how employees at all levels perceive the workplace environment. Many factors can contribute to an employee’s perception, and the Company strives to develop initiatives and programs that support a positive organizational climate in which all of our employees can feel valued, protected, and supported in their daily work life.

IGT’s people strategy, which among others includes commitments to sustainability, belonging, and ethical operations, has been recognized by the 2023 Top Employer Certification for IGT operations in Canada, Italy, and the U.S. in 2023 and 2024. IGT has an ongoing and comprehensive listening strategy in place to "check in" with employees throughout their IGT journey including as candidates, their on-boarding experience, and if and when they exit the organization. The anonymous survey YourIGT, is available 24/7 for employees to provide on-going feedback. To complement this listening strategy, IGT established the Employee Advisory Committee. This is a nomination driven committee that advises the Senior Vice President, People & Transformation in their capacity as chief human resources officer and is renewed every year.

IGT demonstrates not only that initiatives are in place, but that employees are engaged to create a working environment where professional growth, inclusion and communication are paramount.

Advancing Responsibility - The Company maintains certifications in responsible gaming by the World Lottery Association and the National Council on Problem Gambling. In 2024, IGT was recertified to the World Lottery Association's CSR Standards for Associate Members and Responsible Gaming Framework for an additional three years. Further bolstering its credibility in responsible gaming, IGT became the first supplier to receive iCAP Ready certification for its responsible gaming efforts in iLottery. The Company incorporates responsible gaming capabilities and features into its suite of products, and IGT partners with customers to help achieve their responsible gaming goals. IGT’s commitment to responsible gaming starts with its own people and is woven into the fabric of product development, services, programs, and policies. IGT has adopted a positive play approach that encourages all users to apply healthy play behaviors to their game play. IGT believes that it is incumbent upon all stakeholders in the gaming industry to take a proactive approach to problem and underage gambling.

IGT trains employees, at all levels and responsibilities, to support and promote responsible gaming in their daily activities, with additional in-depth courses for employees in specific roles, such as game designers and contact center associates. IGT’s products, games, systems, and portals include advanced responsible gaming tools that help safeguard players’ interests and address regulators’ concerns. IGT maintains close relationships with customers, regulators, and researchers to further its support of player protection.

Supporting Our Communities - The Company supports local communities through corporate initiatives and employee-driven programs. The flagship After School Advantage Program (the ASA Program), for example, was launched in 1999 with the goal of bringing technology and skill development in STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics) education to youth. Over the life of the ASA Program, the Company has placed over 370 digital learning centers. This aligns with IGT Sustainability Plan goals: (i) Engage with community partners to facilitate opportunities for support, learning, and growth; and (ii) Develop educational programs and digital learning centers to encourage skill development and create a sustainable workforce for the future. The Company supports communities financially through various charitable endeavors, and the giving program is aligned with the Company’s SDGs. Employee programs support the unique passions of employees and promote volunteerism. IGT maintains a formal Global Community Giving & Engagement Policy designed to educate and inform all relevant stakeholders about how the Company strives to create opportunities within local communities.

Fostering Sustainable Operations - The Company aims to serve the global market with the highest standards of ethics and integrity. A key part of IGT’s commitment is the continuous integration of sustainability into its decision-making processes to enhance ESG performance.

In 2021, IGT pledged to set science-based targets to reduce GHG emissions according to scientific evidence by signing the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) commitment letter. In 2022, IGT completed its first Scope 3 emissions inventory and submitted near-term and long-term science-based targets for SBTi validation.

Specifically, IGT commitments include:
• reducing combined Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions by 50% by 2030 compared to 2019 (near-term target);
• reducing Scope 3 emissions by 30% by 2030 compared to 2019 (near-term target);
• reducing both Scope 1, Scope 2, and Scope 3 emissions by 90% by 2050 compared to 2019 (long-term targets);
• reaching Net-Zero emissions by 2050, offsetting the residual 10% of emissions.
33

These ambitious targets have been validated by the SBTi in August 2023. IGT is actively pursuing its Decarbonization Pathway by implementing several workstreams across its value chain and operations in order to meet the targets and contribute to the fight against climate change by reducing its greenhouse gas emissions.

IGT continued the distribution of the Environmental, Social and Governance Supplier Qualification Questionnaire in 2024, an annual exercise designed to measure the ESG performance of Suppliers and track their progress towards compliance of the Supplier Code of Conduct. Topics covered include Business Ethics, Social & Inclusive Supply Chain, Environmental Management, Human Rights, Health and Safety and Conflict Minerals aligned to the aforementioned Supplier Code of Conduct.

IGT’s sustainability efforts are also routinely evaluated by ESG rating agencies. In 2024, IGT received a Management level (B) score from the CDP – formerly known as the Carbon Disclosure Project – recognizing the Company for taking coordinated actions on climate issues. In the same year, the Company received a gold medal in sustainability rating from EcoVadis, positioning IGT among the top 5% of global companies for sustainable practices. EcoVadis assesses companies using 21 sustainability criteria within the categories of environment, labor and human rights, ethics, and sustainable procurement. In December 2024, IGT achieved a score of 62, an 8 point increase from prior year, from the S&P Corporate Sustainability Assessment, one of the foremost global sustainability benchmarks. Based on this assessment, IGT was included in the 2025 S&P Sustainability Yearbook, which distinguishes companies within their industries that have demonstrated strengths in corporate sustainability. As of 2024, IGT confirmed the prior year MSCI ESG rating of AAA.

A. Operating Results

Business Overview

IGT is a global leader in the supply of lottery solutions, delivering entertaining and responsible gaming experiences for players worldwide. Leveraging compelling content, continuous investment in innovation, player insights, deep industry expertise and leading‑edge technology, the Company’s lottery solutions deliver gaming experiences that responsibly engage players and drive sustainable growth. IGT has a well‑established local presence and relationships with governments and regulators around the world, and creates value by adhering to the highest standards of service, integrity and responsibility. The business is supported by central support functions including finance, people and transformation, legal, marketing and communications, corporate public affairs, and strategy and corporate development.
The Company operates and provides an integrated portfolio of innovative lottery solutions, including lottery management services and instant lottery systems. The Company operates a worldwide land-based lottery and iLottery business, including sales, operations, product development, technology, and support, and is a leading iLottery platform provider globally.
The former Gaming & Digital segment, also referred to as IGT Gaming, was classified as discontinued operations as of July 26, 2024 and accordingly, we report our results of continuing operations (i.e. what was formerly the Global Lottery segment) as a pure-play lottery business, representing the services and products we expect to continue to provide after the closing of the Proposed Transaction. Unless otherwise noted, the information and amounts provided in this “Management’s Discussion and Analysis” relate to our continuing operations.
Divestitures

On September 14, 2022, the Company completed the sale of 100% of the share capital of Lis Holding S.p.A., a wholly owned subsidiary of IGT Lottery S.p.A. that conducted the Company’s Italian commercial services business, to PostePay S.p.A. – Patrimonio Destinato IMEL for a purchase price of €700 million. The net consideration received of €479 million resulted in a pre-tax gain on sale of $278 million, ($276 million net of tax). The business was a component of continuing operations through the closing date.

OPtiMa

During the third quarter of 2024, we initiated a restructuring plan (“OPtiMa 3.0”) to realign and optimize our cost structure due to ending the transition services agreement (“TSA”) period after the two Italian dispositions (Italian gaming B2C businesses & Italian commercial services business) and the Proposed Transaction for the sale of IGT Gaming.

37
The plan is focused on realigning and optimizing our general and administrative activities to achieve annualized savings by the end of 2026 of $40 million of which about 50% will be realized by the end of 2025. Actions under the plan include the reduction of approximately 3% of our workforce, the optimization of our real estate footprint given our hybrid workforce and headcount reductions, and the reduction of other indirect costs previously incurred due to a larger business portfolio. Employee actions commenced in the third quarter of 2024 and are expected to be completed within the next 12 months. During the year ended December 31, 2024, we incurred $38 million in severance and related employee costs under the plan.

Key Factors Affecting Operations and Financial Condition
The Company’s worldwide operations can be affected by industrial, economic, and political factors on both a regional and global level. The ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine, the Israeli-Hamas conflict, the tightening of monetary policy by central banks and other macroeconomic factors have caused disruptions and uncertainty in the global economy, including rising interest rates, increased inflationary pressures, foreign exchange rate fluctuations, potential cybersecurity risks, and exacerbated supply chain challenges. However, these events did not have a material impact on our supply chain or our results of operations. The extent to which our business, or the business of our suppliers or manufacturers, will be impacted in the future is unknown. We will continue to monitor the effects of these events, as well as the prospect of trade wars involving the U.S. and other countries, which could raise the prices of certain consumer goods, on our business and our results of operations. The following are the principal factors which have affected the Company’s results of operations and financial condition and/or which may affect results of operations and financial condition for future periods.

Sale of IGT Gaming: As previously disclosed in the Company's 2023 Form 20-F, on February 28, 2024, the Parent entered into the “February 2024 Agreements” with Everi, pursuant to which the Parent planned to separate IGT Gaming by way of a taxable spin-off to the Parent’s shareholders and then immediately combine such businesses with Everi. The transaction contemplated by the February 2024 Agreements was expected to close in late 2024 or early 2025.

On July 26, 2024, the Parent, Spinco, Everi, the Buyer, and the Buyer Sub entered into the Transaction Agreements for the Proposed Transaction whereby IGT Gaming and Everi will be simultaneously acquired by the Buyer in an all-cash transaction (the “Proposed Transaction”). The Parent will receive approximately $4.05 billion in cash, subject to customary transaction adjustments in accordance with the Transaction Agreements, for IGT Gaming. In connection with the entry into the Transaction Agreements, the February 2024 Agreements were terminated. The Proposed Transaction, which is expected to be completed by the end of the third quarter of 2025, is subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions, including, among others: (i) final approval by Everi’s stockholders, which was received on November 14, 2024; (ii) clearance of U.S. anti-trust review, with the waiting period having expired on November 20, 2024; and (iii) receipt of regulatory approvals from gaming regulators in the jurisdictions where the Combined Company will operate.

Product Sales: Product sales fluctuate from year to year due to the mix, volume, and timing of the transactions. Product sales amounted to $149 million, $171 million, and $157 million, or approximately 6%, 7%, and 6% of total revenues for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022, respectively.

Jackpots: The Company believes that the performance of lottery products is influenced by the size of advertised jackpots in jurisdictions that offer such jackpots. Typically, as jackpots increase, sales of lottery tickets also increase, further increasing the advertised jackpot level. However, in a rising interest rate environment, advertised jackpot levels will increase more rapidly than they previously did given the annuity basis of the displayed jackpots. Therefore, in a higher interest rate environment, jackpot game ticket sales may be increasing at a relatively slower rate than the corresponding jackpot levels. In a lower interest rate environment, advertised jackpot levels are slower to increase which can negatively impact the sales of lottery tickets.

Effects of Foreign Exchange Rates: The Company is affected by fluctuations in foreign exchange rates (i) through translation of foreign currency financial statements into U.S. dollars for consolidation, which is referred to as the translation impact, and (ii) through transactions by subsidiaries in currencies other than their own functional currencies, which is referred to as the transaction impact. Translation impacts arise in the preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements; in particular, the Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in U.S. dollars while the financial statements of each of the Company’s subsidiaries are generally prepared in the functional currency of that subsidiary. In preparing Consolidated Financial Statements, assets and liabilities measured in the functional currency of the subsidiaries are translated into U.S. dollars using the exchange rate prevailing at the balance sheet date, while income and expenses are translated using the average exchange rates for the period covered. Accordingly, fluctuations in the exchange rate of the functional currencies of the Company’s subsidiaries against the U.S. dollar impacts the Company’s results of operations. The Company is particularly exposed to movements in the euro/U.S. dollar exchange rate. Although the fluctuations in exchange rates have had a significant impact on
38
the Company’s revenues, net income, and net debt, the impact on operating income and cash flows is less significant as revenues are typically matched to costs denominated in the same currency.

Given the impact of foreign exchange rates on our consolidated results, certain key performance indicators (such as same-store sales) and financial fluctuations are reported on a constant-currency basis in order to facilitate period-to-period comparisons of our results without regard to the impact of fluctuating foreign currency exchange rates.
Legal Proceedings

From time to time, the Parent and/or one or more of its subsidiaries are party to legal, regulatory, or administrative proceedings regarding, among other matters, claims by and against us, and injunctions by third parties arising out of the ordinary course of business or its other business activities. Licenses are also subject to legal challenges by competitors seeking to annul awards made to the Company. The Parent and/or one or more of its subsidiaries are also, from time to time, subjects of, or parties to, ethics and compliance inquiries and investigations related to the Company’s ongoing operations.

There are no new material legal, regulatory, or administrative proceedings. Please refer to “Process for Disclosure and Recording of Liabilities Related to Legal Proceedings” and “Legal Proceedings” within “Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements - Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” and “18. Commitments and Contingencies ” included in “Item 18. Financial Statements”, respectively, for additional information.

Total revenue for the year ended December 31, 2024 decreased $17 million, due primarily to a decrease in U.S. multi-state jackpot activity and product sales, partially offset by an increase in instant ticket and draw-game same-store sales growth in Italy, as discussed in further detail below.

549755817747
Service revenue for the year ended December 31, 2024 increased primarily as a result of instant ticket & draw games same-store sales growth in Italy of 4.1%. Same-store sales for U.S. multi-state jackpot ticket (“MSJP”) games (Mega Millions® and Powerball®) experienced a 22.1% decrease, primarily attributable to higher jackpot activity in the prior corresponding period. Other services increased, due primarily to a $13 million increase in Europe from lapsing of unexercised contractual rights and valued added services partially offset by a $10 million decrease, primarily the result of a benefit in the prior corresponding period related to the successful resolution of a customer contract dispute and a decrease in LMA incentives.

Product sales revenue for the year ended December 31, 2024 decreased 13% from the prior corresponding period, principally due to decreases from a $13 million iLottery license in Europe and a $10 million multi-year central system software license, all in the prior corresponding period, partially offset by a $5 million increase in U.S. instant ticket printing operations.

($ in millions) 2024 2023 $ %
Cost of services 1,227 1,207 20 +2
Cost of product sales 117 112 5 +5

Cost of services for the year ended December 31, 2024 increased $20 million, or 2% from the prior corresponding period, primarily attributable to $12 million of additional payroll and benefit costs as a result of increased headcount and inflationary conditions, as well as a $9 million aggregate increase in variable costs and project costs supporting contract renewal and extension activity. The increase in cost of product sales for the year ended December 31, 2024 is primarily due to product mix with lower margin instant ticket product sales compared to higher margin software license sales in the prior corresponding period.

Gross Margins
For the year ended December 31, Change
($ in millions) 2024 2023 $ %
Gross margin

% of product sales 22 % 35 % (1300) bps

Service gross margin as a percentage of service revenue decreased 80 basis points. Gross margin as a percentage of service revenue decreased slightly to 48% from 49%, primarily due to the increase in cost of services discussed above.

Cost of product sales as a percentage of product sales decreased by approximately 1300 basis points and product gross margin as a percentage of product sales decreased by the same, principally as a result of product mix.

Operating Expenses
For the year ended December 31, Change
($ in millions) 2024 2023 $ %
Selling, general and administrative 393 407 (14) -3

Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased primarily due to reduced costs for legal consultants and the tentative legal settlement related to the Texas Fun 5 instant ticket game incurred in the prior corresponding period. This decrease was, partially offset by increased payroll and benefit costs, mainly due to increased salaries and medical costs driven by inflation.
For the year ended December 31, Change
($ in millions) 2024 2023 $ %
Research and development 45 37 7 +20

Restructuring 39 13 25 +189

During 2024, management initiated a multi-phase restructuring plan, OPtiMa 3.0, to realign and optimize our cost structure following the sale of IGT Gaming. The restructuring costs consist primarily of severance and related employee costs. Actions under the plan are expected to be completed within the next 12 months.

%
Operating income 686 752 (67) -9
Operating margin 27 % 30 % (300) bps

Operating margin decreased, primarily as a result of higher costs associated with restructuring initiated in the third quarter, as well as a decrease in product revenue with product mix negatively impacting product margins as discussed above.


Non-operating expenses
For the year ended December 31, Change
($ in millions) 2024 2023 $ %
Interest expense, net 206 207 (2) -1

Net interest expense decreased slightly, principally as a result of lower average borrowings on the Revolving Credit Facilities.
Foreign exchange (gain) loss, net (52) 44 (96) > 200.0

Foreign exchange (gain) loss, net principally relates to fluctuations in the Euro to U.S. dollar exchange rate on internal and external debt. In addition, we entered into a short-duration foreign exchange forward contract in order to preserve the U.S. Dollar purchasing power of the Euro debt issued in September 2024, resulting in a $7.4 million loss on settlement.
Other non-operating expense, net 11 13 (2) -18

Non-operating expenses related primarily to losses incurred on the Company’s investment in a Brazilian lottery consortium as well as a $5 million loss on extinguishment of debt in the prior corresponding period.
Provision for income taxes 250 223 27 +12

The increase in provision for income taxes was primarily driven by the Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income tax (“GILTI”) and withholding taxes associated with dividend payments, partially offset by a reduction in valuation allowances.

Income from discontinued operations
For the year ended December 31, Change
($ in millions) 2024 2023 $ %
Income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of tax 238 43 195 > 200.0

Discontinued operations reflects the income from the discontinued operations of IGT Gaming. Revenues for the year ended December 31, 2024 increased, primarily due to higher service revenue driven by installed base units growth, as well as an increase in product sales, principally as a result of terminal leases and poker software licenses, partially offset by lower gaming terminal sales as compared to the prior period. Income from discontinued operations, net of tax benefited further, primarily due to lower depreciation and amortization while the disposal group was held for sale. See “Item 18. Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements—Note 3. Discontinued Operations and Assets Held for Sale ” elsewhere in this Form 20-F for additional detail.

Global same-store sales for multi-jurisdiction jackpot ticket sales experienced a 5.8% increase, primarily attributable to elevated jackpot levels in the U.S. Additionally, other lottery revenue increased $5 million principally due to iLottery fees, which was fully offset by a $7 million decrease in LMA incentive revenue.

Systems, software, and other revenue decreased $206 million, or 80%, to $53 million from $259 million for the prior corresponding period primarily due to the sale of our Italian commercial services business that concluded September 14, 2022.

Product sales for the year ended December 31, 2023 increased $14 million, or 9%, from the prior corresponding period, principally due to higher terminal deliveries in North America of $25 million primarily as a result of contracts in Michigan and Canada, as well as a $27 million increase in International sales in the aggregate attributable to the extension of a multi-year central system software license in Switzerland, an iLottery license in Poland, and the U.K. Lottery supplier contract. These increases were partially offset by a $14 million decrease in terminal and system deliveries primarily related to the prior year contract renewal with the Poland Lottery as well as a $19 million decrease in software sales principally related to International system software upgrades, sales, and deliveries in the prior corresponding period. Instant ticket printing operations revenue decreased $9 million due primarily to increased volume in Florida in the prior corresponding period.

Net interest expense decreased slightly, principally as a result of maintaining a lower average balance on the Senior Secured Notes, partially as a result of the notes redemptions in 2023 described in “Item 18. Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements — Note 15. Debt” compared to the prior corresponding period.

Non-operating expenses during the year ended December 31, 2023 related primarily to losses incurred on the Company’s investment in a Brazilian lottery consortium as well as a $5 million loss on extinguishment of debt. During the prior corresponding period, the Company incurred $13 million in losses on extinguishment of debt..
Provision for income taxes 223 212 11 +5

Discontinued operations reflects the income from the discontinued operations of IGT Gaming. Revenues for the year ended December 31, 2023 increased, primarily due to higher service revenue driven by installed base units growth, as well as an increase in product sales, principally as a result of terminal leases and poker software licenses, partially offset by lower gaming terminal sales as compared to the prior period. Income from discontinued operations, net of tax benefited further, primarily due to the prior corresponding period including the recognition of $204 million of expense, net of tax benefit, for the settlement of the Benson Matter. See “Item 18. Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements—Note 3. Discontinued Operations and Assets Held for Sale ” elsewhere in this Form 20-F for additional detail.

B. Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview

The Company’s business is capital intensive and requires liquidity to meet its obligations and fund growth. Historically, the Company’s primary sources of liquidity have been cash flows from operations and, to a lesser extent, cash proceeds from
45
financing activities, including amounts available under the Revolving Credit Facilities. In addition to general working capital and operational needs, the Company’s liquidity requirements arise primarily from its need to meet debt service obligations and to fund capital expenditures and upfront license fee payments. The Company also requires liquidity to fund acquisitions and associated costs. The Company’s cash flows generated from operating activities together with cash flows generated from financing activities have historically been sufficient to meet the Company's liquidity needs.

The Company believes its ability to generate cash from operations to reinvest in its business is one of its fundamental financial strengths. Combined with funds currently available and committed borrowing capacity, the Company expects to have sufficient liquidity to meet its financial obligations in the ordinary course of business for the 12 months following the date of issuance of this report and for the longer-term period thereafter.

The cash management activities, funding of operations, and investment of excess liquidity are centrally coordinated by a dedicated treasury team with the objective of ensuring effective and efficient management of funds.
At December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company’s total available liquidity was as follows, respectively:
December 31,
($ in millions) 2024 2023
Revolving Credit Facilities 1,364 1,234
Cash and cash equivalents 584 508
Total Liquidity 1,948 1,741

The Revolving Credit Facilities are subject to customary covenants (including maintaining a minimum ratio of EBITDA to total net interest costs and a maximum ratio of total net debt to EBITDA) and events of default, none of which are expected to impact the Company’s liquidity or capital resources. At December 31, 2024, the issuers were in compliance with such covenants.

Refer to the “Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements—15. Debt ” included in “Item 18. Financial Statements” for information regarding the Company’s debt obligations, including the maturity profile of borrowings and committed borrowing facilities.

The following table summarizes the Company’s USD equivalent cash and cash equivalent balances by currency:

($ in millions) $ % $ %
Euros 296 51 277 54
U.S. dollars 182 31 119 23
Other currencies 105 18 112 22
Total Cash and cash equivalents
584 100 508 100
The Company maintains its cash deposits in a diversified portfolio of global banks, the majority of which are considered Global Systemically Important Banks. The Company holds an immaterial amount of cash in countries where there may be legal or economic restrictions on the ability of subsidiaries to transfer funds in the form of cash dividends, loans, or advances. Furthermore, certain regulatory restrictions due to the shortage of foreign exchange reserves are present in Trinidad and Tobago where approximately $28 million of our foreign cash resides. These restrictions do not have an impact on the ability of the Company to meets its cash obligations.

Cash Flow Summary

The following tables summarize the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. A complete statement of cash flows is provided in the Consolidated Financial Statements included herein.

2199023258580
Net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations was $689 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 , compared with net cash provided of $916 million for the same period in 2023 . The decrease was primarily due to changes of $129 million as a result of timing of tax and interest payments, unfavorable changes in foreign exchange of $96 million, and a $13 million decrease in depreciation and amortization from the prior corresponding period. Within working capital, excluding the impact of tax and interest payments, changes in trade receivables unfavorably impacted cash flows by $30 million; this was partially offset by changes in inventory favorably impacting cash flows by $16 million, primarily due to timing of receipts and lower inventory purchasing, respectively, during the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to the prior year period.

Net cash used for investing activities for the year ended December 31, 2024 was $150 million , compared with net cash used of $151 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 . Capital expenditures were relatively stable compared to the same period in 2023.

Net cash used for financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2024 was $536 million , compared with net cash used of $592 million in the same period of 2023 . The change was primarily due to a $45 million net increase as proceeds from debt exceeded payments in the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to the same period in 2023.

2199023263250
Net cash provided by operating activities from discontinued operations was $341 million in the year ended December 31, 2024, compared with $125 million for the same period in 2023, increasing primarily due to a $184 million payment, net of tax benefits on the DDI / Benson Matter provision in the prior corresponding period. Net cash used for investing activities was $207 million in the year ended December 31, 2024, compared with $242 million for the same period in 2023. The change was primarily due to a $30 million decrease in capital expenditures. Net cash used by financing activities was $50 million in the year ended December 31, 2024, compared with $46 million for the same period in 2023. Net cash used for financing activities primarily related to payments on deferred license obligations, dividend payments to non-controlling interests, and escrow payments on the iSoftBet acquisition.
47
Capital Expenditures

For the year ended December 31, 2024, capital expenditures are principally composed of:
7696581398100


Capital expenditures for 2024 of $149 million principally consisted of $108 million for investments in systems, equipment and other assets related to contracts, including systems and equipment deployed in Georgia, California, and Texas; investments in intangible assets of $21 million; and investments in property, plant and equipment of $20 million.

Capital expenditures for 2022 of $162 million principally consisted of $127 million for investments in systems, equipment and other assets related to contracts, including systems and equipment deployed in Michigan, Connecticut, and California; investments in property, plant and equipment of $19 million; and investments in intangible assets of $16 million.
Tabular Disclosure of Cash Requirements

Operating leases (2)
126 30 44 25 27
Total 5,537 238 3,443 1,295 547
(1) Long-term debt consists of the principal amount of long-term debt, including current portion, as included in “Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements—15. Debt ” included in “Item 18. Financial Statements.” Certain of the Company’s long-term debt is denominated in euros.
(2) Operating leases principally relate to leases for facilities and equipment used in the Company’s business. The amounts presented include the imputed interest to the counterparties.

Unconditional Purchase Obligations

The Company’s principal commitments consist of unconditional purchase obligations resulting from agreements to purchase goods and services in the ordinary course of business. Unconditional purchase obligations exclude agreements that are cancellable without penalty. As of December 31, 2024, the Company had unconditional purchase obligations of approximately $42 million with various terms of up to 9 years. For more information on our unconditional purchase obligations, see “Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements—18. Commitments and Contingencies ” included in “Item 18. Financial Statements”.

The Company expects to have sufficient cash flows from the above cited sources to meet the material cash requirements of these commitments as they become settleable in the ordinary course of business.

48
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company has the following off-balance sheet arrangements:
Performance and other bonds
Certain contracts require us to provide a surety bond as a guarantee of performance for the benefit of customers and bid and litigation bonds for the benefit of potential customers.

These bonds give beneficiaries the right to obtain payment and/or performance from the issuer of the bond if certain specified events occur. In the case of performance bonds, which generally have a term of one year, such events include our failure to perform our obligations under the applicable contract(s). In general, we would only be liable for these guarantees in the event of default in our performance of our obligations under each contract, the probability of which we believe is remote.
Letters of Credit
The Parent and certain of its subsidiaries obtain letters of credit under the Revolving Credit Facilities and under senior unsecured uncommitted demand credit facilities. These letters of credit secure various obligations, including obligations arising under customer contracts and real estate leases. The following table summarizes the letters of credit outstanding at December 31, 2024 and 2023 and the weighted-average annual cost of such letters of credit:
($ in millions)
Letters of Credit Outstanding (1)
Weighted-
Average
Annual Cost
December 31, 2024 111 1.06 %
December 31, 2023 111 1.07 %
(1) There were no letters of credit outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facilities.

C. Research and Development, Patents and Licenses, etc.

To remain competitive, the Company invests resources toward its R&D efforts to introduce new and innovative games with dynamic features to attract new customers and retain existing customers. The Company’s R&D efforts cover multiple creative and engineering disciplines, including innovative retail solutions, hardware and software, creative lottery games and game content, and instant ticket printing technology and design. These products are created primarily by employee designers, engineers, and artists, as well as third-party content creators.

R&D costs, which principally include employee compensation costs and outside services, are expensed as incurred, with the exception of certain costs incurred in the development of our externally-sold software products, software for services provided to customers, and software for internal use. Once technological feasibility is established, all software development costs are capitalized until the externally-sold software product is available for general release to customers, while software for services provided to customers and software for internal use are capitalized during the application development phase.

The Company devotes continued investment in R&D to create new and enhanced lottery products and services, as set forth below:
For the year ended December 31,

49
D. Trend Information
See “Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects — A. Operating Results ” and “Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects — B. Liquidity and Capital Resources .”

E. Critical Accounting Estimates
The Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in conformity with GAAP which require the use of estimates, judgments, and assumptions that affect the carrying amount of assets and liabilities and the amounts of income and expenses recognized. The estimates and underlying assumptions are based on information available at the date that the financial statements are prepared, on historical experience, judgments, and assumptions considered to be reasonable and realistic.
The Company periodically reviews estimates and assumptions. Actual results for those areas requiring management judgment or estimates may differ from those recorded in the Consolidated Financial Statements due to the occurrence of events and the uncertainties which characterize the assumptions and conditions on which the estimates are based.

The areas that require greater subjectivity of management in making estimates and judgments and where a change in such underlying assumptions could have a significant impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements are fully described in “Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements—2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies ” included in “Item 18. Financial Statements.” Certain critical accounting estimates are discussed below.

Revenue Recognition
Application of GAAP related to the measurement and recognition of revenue requires us to make judgments and estimates. Specifically, complex arrangements with nonstandard terms and conditions may require significant contract interpretation to determine the appropriate accounting, including whether promised goods and services specified in an arrangement are distinct performance obligations. Other significant judgments include determining whether the Company is acting as the principal in a transaction and whether separate contracts should be combined and considered part of one arrangement.

Revenue recognition is also impacted by our ability to determine when a contract is probable of collection and to estimate variable consideration, including, for example, rebates, volume discounts, service-level penalties, and performance bonuses. We consider various factors when making these judgments, including a review of specific transactions, historical experience, and market and economic conditions. Evaluations are conducted each quarter to assess the adequacy of the estimates.

The Company recognized service and product revenues of $2.4 billion and $149 million, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2024. The Company often enters into contracts with customers that consist of a combination of services and products that are accounted for as one or more distinct performance obligations. Management applies judgment in identifying and evaluating the contractual terms and conditions that impact the identification of performance obligations and the pattern of revenue recognition. The Company’s revenue recognition policy, which requires significant judgments and estimates, is fully described in “Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements—2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies ” included in “ Item 18. Financial Statements.”

Item 6.        Directors, Senior Management, and Employees

A. Directors and Senior Management

As of February 20, 2025, the Board consists of 12 directors. Seven (7) of the current directors were determined by the Board to be independent under the listing standards and rules of the NYSE, as required by the Articles of Association of the Parent (the “Articles”). For a director to be independent under the listing standards of the NYSE, the Board must affirmatively determine that the director has no material relationship with the Company (either directly or as a partner, stockholder or officer of an organization that has a relationship with the Company). The Board has made an affirmative determination that the members of the Board so designated in the table below meet the standards for “independence” set forth in the Parent’s Corporate Governance Guidelines and applicable NYSE rules. The Articles require that for as long as the Parent’s ordinary shares are listed on the NYSE, the Parent will comply with all NYSE corporate governance standards set forth in Section 3 of the NYSE Listed Company Manual applicable to non-controlled domestic U.S. issuers, regardless of whether the Parent is a foreign private issuer.

On May 16, 2018, the Board approved the observer agreement (the “Observer Agreement”) between De Agostini and the Company permitting De Agostini to appoint an observer to attend meetings of the Parent’s directors. Effective November 8,
50
2023, the Observer Agreement was renewed for a new two-year term and Alessandro Vergottini, the Chief Financial Officer of De Agostini, acknowledged and agreed to his renewed appointment by De Agostini as an observer pursuant to the terms of the Observer Agreement. The Observer Agreement expires following the meeting of the Parent’s directors at which the financial results for the third quarter of 2025 are reviewed.

Except for the relationship between Marco Drago, Enrico Drago, and Lorenzo Pellicioli described above, there are no familial relationships among any of the Parent’s directors, senior managers, or the senior consultant.

B. Compensation
Non-Executive Director Compensation
The Parent’s compensation policy for non-executive directors is to provide an annual cash retainer payable in quarterly tranches as well as equity awards typically in the form of a restricted share unit (“RSU”) award vesting on an annual basis, or such other form of equity awards under the Company’s 2021 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Equity Incentive Plan”). Additional cash retainers are provided for the non-executive directors serving as Chairpersons of the Board, Audit Committee, Compensation Committee, and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee as well as the Lead Independent Director.

Equity Awards

An RSU award is normally granted to each existing non-executive director annually, and to a new non-executive director at the time of appointment.

The number of RSUs covered by each award is generally determined by dividing (1) the Annual Grant Value (see table below in the “Annual Compensation” section) by (2) the closing price of an ordinary share as of the date of grant, prorated accordingly in respect of grants made to new non-executive directors. RSUs normally vest at the next annual general meeting (“AGM”) of the Parent after grant date, subject to continued service of the non-executive director as a director of the Parent. Where a non-executive director resigns from their directorship prior to the normal vesting date, the Parent will consider the non-executive director to have retired from the Board if such director has completed at least eight years of service, and any outstanding RSUs held by the non-executive director will become fully vested as of the date of their termination of service. Further, any outstanding RSUs held by a non-executive director will automatically vest in full in the event of their death or termination of service due to disability.

(5) Mr. Sala’s equity awards compensation also includes 100% achievement of the Co-investment Plan performance conditions for certain PSUs and stock options granted in 2021, which vested 100% with shareholders’ approval of the Company’s 2023 financial statements at the 2024 AGM. The amount of compensation reflects the total number of shares that vested multiplied by IGT’s closing share price as of May 14, 2024, which was $20.60.

(6) Represents the value of certain health, welfare, and other benefits received by the executive officers during 2024 (including tax preparation, employer contributions to post-retirement plans, relocation benefits, taxable life insurance premiums paid, car allowances, housing allowances, private air travel, and perquisites.)

Short-Term Incentive Compensation Plans
The Company's 2024 short-term incentive (“STI”) compensation plans are performance-based and designed to encourage achievement of both short-term financial results and longer-term strategic objectives. The STI plans recognize growth achievement with an opportunity to earn an incentive on the upside, as well as limit the downside potential. Payments under the STI plans were based on the Company's 2024 financial performance, individual Management by Objectives (“MBOs”), and team Objective and Key Results (“OKRs”). The Company's executive officers participated in the same STI plans as other employees during 2024.

Executive Officers STI

For purposes of the STI plans, financial performance for executive officers was measured based on Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA (“AEBITDA”), Consolidated Adjusted Operating Income ("AOI"), and Adjusted Consolidated Net Debt (“Net Debt”). Executive officers focused on a specific business unit also had other targeted financial metrics, such as a Business Unit AOI, a Business Unit AEBITDA metric or a Business Unit Revenue, in lieu of certain or all of the Consolidated metrics. STI targets as a percentage of base salary are 100% for the CEO (capped at 167% of base salary), 150% for the Executive Chair (capped at $1.75 million), and between 70% and 100% for the Company's other executive officers (capped at between 140%
61
and 200% of base salary). STI financial performance can be adjusted to account for unusually negative or positive financial results due to events outside of the control of the Company's executive officers. All STI objectives had a mix of financial and individual metrics, which is presented in the table below.

(1) Due to the sale of IGT Gaming, Corporate Consolidated OI and AEBITDA was modified to consider the measure of total (i) company profit performance on a consolidated basis for the six (6) months ended June 30, 2024, plus (ii) company profit performance from continuing operations only for the six (6) months ended December 31, 2024, each excluding the impact of purchase price accounting as reported in IGT’s consolidated financial statements for the performance period. Consolidated Net Debt is based on net debt of the Company plus “Cash and cash equivalents” attributed to discontinued operations as reported in IGT’s consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2024.

All financial objectives were established by the Compensation Committee of the Board for the Executive Chair of the Board and the CEO, and by the Board for the other executive officers, upon recommendation of the Compensation Committee.

Long-Term Incentive Compensation Plans

The Company’s long-term incentive (“LTI”) compensation plan provides for several different types of stock-based awards, including stock options, restricted stock and RSUs, both time and performance-based. No stock options were granted under the LTI plan in 2024.

The principal purposes of granting LTI awards are to assist the Company in attracting and retaining executive officers, to provide a market-competitive total compensation package, and to motivate recipients to increase shareholder value by enabling them to participate in the value created, thus aligning their interests with those of the Company’s shareholders.

Grants of PSUs

PSUs were granted in 2024 that will vest 50% in 2027 and 2028, respectively, based on cumulative performance over the 2024-2026 period and continued service through the applicable vesting date. The awards provide for full vesting in the event of the participant’s death, and pro rata vesting in the event of disability.

The vesting of the PSUs granted in 2024 is tied to the following performance metrics:
– Cumulative Consolidated Adjusted Free Cash Flow;
– Cumulative Consolidated AEBITDA or Cumulative Global Lottery AEBITDA less Capital Expenditures depending on the employee’s respective business unit; and
– Relative Total Shareholder Return (“TSR”) performance against the Russell 3000 Mid Cap Market Index.

AEBITDA and TSR were selected as performance measures to provide a strong focus on profit and alignment to shareholder returns, respectively. Adjusted Free Cash Flow is designed to focus on deleveraging and reducing the Net Debt. AEBITDA and Adjusted Free Cash Flow performance are independently scored using separate payout curves; the outcomes of which could result in vested shares that are greater than, equal to, or less than the original amount of total target shares. The performance factor is the product of the individual AEBITDA and Adjusted Free Cash Flow payout curves, multiplied by the relative TSR performance factor.

Actual vesting under the award can range from 0% to 145% of target if all maximum performance targets are met. Financial objectives were established by the Compensation Committee and reviewed by the Board, consistent with the authorization provided by the Company’s shareholders.

Compensation Actions Relating to CEO Employment Letter Amendment

Effective January 16, 2025, Vincent L. Sadusky’s employment agreement was amended to include, among other compensation actions, the following:

1. Mr. Sadusky received a one-time retention award of RSUs with a grant date in the first quarter of 2025, and a target grant date value of $5 million, with an opportunity to earn up to an additional 233,333 shares depending on the share price of the Parent’s ordinary shares for the 60 days immediately preceding and ending on the vesting date of January 1, 2027 and
2. Mr. Sadusky received a one-time retention award of RSUs with a grant date in the first quarter of 2025, and a target grant date value of $2.5 million, with an opportunity to earn up to an additional 116,667 shares depending on the share price of the Parent’s ordinary shares for the 60 days immediately preceding and ending on the vesting date of January 1, 2028, which is three years after the grant date.

The awards were granted on February 20, 2025.

Marco Sala’s Co-Investment Plan

In 2021, the Company entered into a Co-Investment Plan with Marco Sala. Mr. Sala’s appointment to executive chair of the Board, effective January 24, 2022, did not impact any of the vesting conditions for awards granted under the plan. The Co-Investment Plan was intended to align Mr. Sala’s interests with those of the Company’s shareholders. Under the Co-Investment Plan, the Company matched Mr. Sala’s commitment to hold his ordinary shares on a 1:1 basis (up to 470,000 shares), comprising a matching grant of up to 345,000 shares, awarded half in PSUs and half in stock options on May 11, 2021, and a matching grant of up to 125,000 shares awarded in PSUs on July 28, 2021.

The vesting of certain PSUs and options awarded under the Co-Investment Plan was dependent upon achievement of certain performance conditions for the measurement period ended December 31, 2023 and continued service until May 2024. These performance shares units (211,250) and share options (86,250), were achieved at target following shareholders’ approval of the Company’s 2023 financial statements at the AGM in May 2024 and were disclosed in the prior year.

The measurement period for the performance share units (86,250) and share options (86,250) subject to the Absolute Total Shareholder Return (“TSR”) financial metric ended upon approval of the Company’s 2023 financial statements at the 2024 AGM. Achievement of the Absolute TSR was based on the share price being equal to or greater than 20% over the period commencing on the grant date (the initial price of $17.18 is equal to the 20-day trading average share price ending on the date of grant) and ending on the date of approval of the Company’s 2023 financial statements (the final price is equal to the 60-trading-days-average share price ending on the approval of the Company’s 2023 financial statements at the 2024 AGM). The vesting of these performance share units and options was also subject to Marco Sala’s continued service as a director until the AGM in May 2024. These shares vested at target:

The average share price for the 60 consecutive trading days ended May 14, 2024 was $24, which shows TSR at 36.38% versus the 20% target increase over the initial price of $17.18.

C. Board Practices
As of February 20, 2025, the Board consists of 12 members who were elected by shareholder vote on May 14, 2024. See “Item 6.A. Directors and Senior Management ” above. The term of office of the current Board will expire at the conclusion of the next annual general meeting of the Company. Each director may be re-elected at any subsequent general meeting of shareholders. None of the Parent’s directors have service contracts with the Parent (or any subsidiary) providing for benefits upon termination of employment as a director.
The directors are responsible for the management of the Company’s business, for which purpose they may exercise all of the powers of the Parent whether relating to the management of the business or not. As described above in section “Item 6.A. Directors and Senior Management ,” as of February 20, 2025, the Board is comprised of: (i) seven (7) independent directors including James F.

The Board maintains the following committees: (i) an Audit Committee; (ii) a Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee; and (iii) a Compensation Committee. The membership of each committee meets the independence and eligibility requirements of the NYSE and applicable law. The members of each committee are appointed by and serve at the discretion of the Board until such member’s successor is duly elected and qualified or until such member’s earlier resignation or removal. The chairperson of each committee is appointed by the Board.

The Audit Committee and management may make recommendations to the Board for any changes, amendments, and modifications to the Parent’s ethical codes of practice, such as the Code of Conduct and the Code of Ethics, and promptly disclosing any waivers for directors or executive officers, as required by applicable law.

The Board reviews the adequacy and effectiveness of the Company’s enterprise risk management program, including the approval of risk appetites for the Company’s key risks. The Audit Committee receives periodic reports from management, reviews updates to the Company’s principal and emerging risks, and conducts deep dive reviews of risk management activities.

Since 2022, the Audit Committee also holds dedicated sessions to receive and discuss updates and demonstrations on data protection and cybersecurity and engages with management on the Company’s incident prevention plans and policies, threat-detection measures and prompt response to malicious activity and attacks to ensure the Company is well placed to meet the evolving risks and external threats in this area.

The Audit Committee regularly meets with the external auditor, the CFO, the General Counsel, the CAO, the Chief Compliance and Risk Officer and Internal Audit in separate, closed sessions. The Audit Committee regularly reports to the Board on the matters for which it has oversight responsibility.

The Audit Committee consists of Maria Pinelli (chairperson), Alberto Dessy, and Heather J. McGregor. Each member of the Audit Committee must meet the financial literacy requirement, as such qualification is interpreted by the Board in its business judgment, or must become financially literate within a reasonable period of time after his or her appointment to the Audit Committee. In addition, at least one (1) member of the Audit Committee must have accounting or related financial management expertise, as the Board interprets such qualification in its business judgment.

D.        Employees
As of December 31, 2024, IGT conducted business in more than 100 jurisdictions around the world and had 11,019 employees, including approximately 4,994 employees within IGT Gaming, which is currently classified as held for sale. The Company believes that its relationship with its employees is generally satisfactory. Most of IGT’s employees are not represented by any labor union. However, labor agreements are common in some countries around the world, and the Company recognizes such arrangements and works closely with the applicable work councils. Relations with the Company’s mid-level employees and production workers in Italy are subject to Italy’s collective bargaining agreement for the tertiary sector, distribution, and services (CCNL Terziario, della Distribuzione e dei Servizi). Relations with the Company’s executives in Italy are subject to the national collective bargaining agreement for executives in the industry companies producing services (CCNL Dirigenti Industria). Since inception of these agreements, IGT has not experienced any strike that significantly influenced its business activities. In the U.S., two (2) bargaining units, totaling less than 50 employees, have elected representation by third-party union organizations. A collective bargaining agreement is in place with one of the organizational units and the Company is negotiating in good faith with the second unit.

Human Capital

IGT recognizes human capital development as a critical strategic process and actively builds employee skills and capabilities in an agile and outcome-focused way. In addition to offering well-structured and competitive reward and benefit packages designed to attract and retain the employees, the Company invests in training and career development opportunities to support its employees in their careers and strives to create a fair and inclusive culture that values unity, diversity, and belonging in its people, players, customers, and communities.

Career development is a partnership between each employee, their manager, and the Company and requires a conscious choice to grow and stretch individual capabilities and further a professional career. Employees and managers have a responsibility to drive their individual growth and development, with IGT providing the resources necessary to achieve these goals. New capabilities are developed through learning experiences, specific trainings, coaching, mentoring, and feedback. Individual Development Plans, aligned to personal growth goals and business objectives, enable employees to develop the most needed skills to reach individual goals. To support development, IGT has designed upskilling and reskilling plans to ensure people’s employability and to keep the Company competitive in the market.

Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion

IGT understands that its employees’ unique backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives should reflect its global customers and the local communities where the Company operates. Diversity must be supported by a fair and inclusive culture that enables all employees to feel valued, respected, engaged, and empowered to contribute to the business.

The Company established the Office of Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion (“DE&I”) to guide strategic DE&I initiatives and ensure that these topics continue to stay in focus and are embedded throughout the Company’s business processes.

Voting Rights
De Agostini controls the Parent but does not have different voting rights from the Parent’s other shareholders, aside from the election to exercise the votes of the Special Voting Shares related to the shares owned by De Agostini. However, through its voting rights, De Agostini has the ability to control the Company and significantly influence the decisions submitted to a vote of the Parent’s shareholders, including approval of annual dividends, the election and removal of directors, mergers or other business combinations, the acquisition or disposition of assets, and issuances of equity, and the incurrence of indebtedness.

Additional Share Information
The Parent’s ordinary shares are listed on the NYSE under the symbol “IGT” and can be traded in U.S. dollars. The Parent’s ordinary shares may be held in the following two ways:

The Parent is a public limited company registered in England and Wales under company number 09127533. Its objects are unrestricted, in line with the default position under the CA 2006. The following is a summary of certain provisions of the Articles and of the applicable laws of England. The following is a summary and, therefore, does not contain full details of the Articles, which are attached as Exhibit 1.1 to this annual report on Form 20-F. A description of the Company’s ordinary shares is attached as Exhibit 2.18 to this annual report on Form 20-F.
The Board
Directors’ interests
Except as otherwise provided in the Articles, a director may not vote on or be counted in the quorum in relation to a resolution of the directors or committee of the directors concerning a matter where they have a direct or indirect interest which is, to their knowledge, a material interest (otherwise than by virtue of their interest in shares or debentures or other securities of or otherwise in or through the Parent), but this prohibition does not apply to any interest arising only because a resolution concerns any of the following matters:
• the giving of a guarantee, security, or indemnity in respect of money lent or obligations incurred by the director or any other person at the request of or for the benefit of the Parent or any of its subsidiary undertakings;
75
• the giving of a guarantee, security, or indemnity in respect of a debt or obligation of the Parent or any of its subsidiary undertakings for which the director has assumed responsibility in whole or in part, either alone or jointly with others, under a guarantee or indemnity or by the giving of security;
• a transaction or arrangement concerning an offer of shares, debentures, or other securities of the Parent or any of its subsidiary undertakings for subscription or purchase, in which offer the director is or may be entitled to participate as a holder of securities or in the underwriting or sub-underwriting of which he is to participate;
• a transaction or arrangement to which the Parent is or is to be a party concerning another company (including a subsidiary undertaking of the Parent) in which the director or any person connected with them is interested (directly or indirectly) whether as an officer, shareholder, creditor, or otherwise (a “Relevant Company”), if the director and any persons connected with them do not to their knowledge hold an interest in shares (as that term is used in Sections 820 to 825 of the CA 2006) representing 1% or more of either any class of the equity share capital (excluding any share of that class held as treasury shares) in the Relevant Company or of the voting rights available to members of the Relevant Company;
• a transaction or arrangement for the benefit of the employees of the Parent or any of its subsidiary undertakings (including any pension fund or retirement, death or disability scheme) which does not award the director a privilege or benefit not generally awarded to the employees to whom it relates; or
• a transaction or arrangement concerning the purchase or maintenance of any insurance policy for the benefit of directors or for the benefit of persons including directors.

Directors’ borrowing powers
The directors may exercise all the powers of the Parent to borrow money and to mortgage or charge all or part of the undertaking, property, and assets (present or future) and uncalled capital of the Parent and, subject to the CA 2006, to issue debentures and other securities, whether outright or as collateral security for a debt, liability, or obligation of the Parent or of a third party.
Directors’ shareholding requirements
A director need not hold shares in the Parent to qualify to serve as a director.
Age limit
There is no age limit applicable to directors in the Articles.
Compliance with NYSE Rules
For as long as the Parent’s ordinary shares are listed on the NYSE, the Parent intends to comply with all NYSE corporate governance standards set forth in Section 3 of the NYSE Listed Company Manual applicable to non-controlled domestic U.S. issuers, regardless of whether the Parent is a foreign private issuer.
Classes of shares
The Parent has three (3) classes of shares in issue. This includes (i) ordinary shares of U.S. $0.10 each; (ii) Special Voting Shares of U.S. $0.000001 each; and (iii) sterling non-voting shares of £1.00 each (the “Sterling Non-Voting Shares”).
Dividends and distributions
Subject to the CA 2006, the Parent’s shareholders may declare a dividend on the Parent’s ordinary shares by ordinary resolution, and the Board may decide to pay an interim dividend to holders of the Parent’s ordinary shares in accordance with their respective rights and interests in the Parent, and may fix the time for payment of such dividend. Under English law, dividends may only be paid out of distributable reserves, defined as accumulated realized profits (so far as not previously utilized by distribution or capitalization) less accumulated realized losses (so far as not previously written off in a reduction or reorganization of capital duly made), and not out of share capital, which includes the share premium account.

The Special Voting Shares and Sterling Non-Voting Shares do not entitle their holders to dividends.
76
If twelve (12) years have passed from the date on which a dividend or other sum from the Parent became due for payment and the distribution recipient has not claimed it, the distribution recipient is no longer entitled to that dividend or other sum and it ceases to remain owing by the Parent.
The Articles also permit a scrip dividend scheme under which the directors may, with the prior authority of an ordinary resolution of the Parent, allot to those holders of a particular class of shares who have elected to receive them further shares of that class or ordinary shares in either case credited as fully paid instead of cash in respect of all or part of a dividend or dividends specified by the resolution.

Voting rights
Subject to any rights or restrictions as to voting attached to any class of shares and subject to disenfranchisement in the event of non-payment of any call or other sum due and payable in respect of any shares not fully paid, the voting rights of shareholders of the Parent in a general meeting are as follows:
1. On a show of hands,
a. the shareholder of the Parent who (being an individual) is present in person or (being a corporation) is present by a duly authorized corporate representative at a general meeting of the Parent will have one vote; and
b. every person present who has been appointed by a shareholder as a proxy will have one vote, except where:
i. that proxy has been appointed by more than one shareholder entitled to vote on the resolution; and
ii. the proxy has been instructed:
A. by one or more of those shareholders to vote for the resolution and by one or more of those shareholders to vote against the resolution; or
B. by one or more of those shareholders to vote in the same way on the resolution (whether for or against) and one or more of those shareholders has permitted the proxy discretion as to how to vote,
in which case, the proxy has one vote for and one vote against the resolution.
2.     On a poll taken at a meeting, every shareholder present and entitled to vote on the resolution has one vote for every ordinary share of the Parent where they are the holder, and 0.9995 votes for every Special Voting Share where they are entitled under the terms of the Parent’s loyalty voting structure to direct the exercise of the vote.
Under the Articles, a poll on a resolution may be demanded by the chairperson, the directors, five (5) or more people having the right to vote on the resolution, or a shareholder or shareholders (or their duly appointed proxies) having not less than 10% of either the total voting rights or the total paid up share capital. Once a resolution is declared, such persons may demand the poll both in advance of, and during, a general meeting, either before or immediately after a show of hands on such resolution.
In the case of joint holders, only the vote of the senior holder who votes (or any proxy duly appointed by him) may be counted by the Parent.

The necessary quorum for a general shareholder meeting is the shareholders who together represent at least a majority of the voting rights of all the shareholders entitled to vote at the meeting, present in person or by proxy, save that if the Parent only has one (1) shareholder entitled to attend and vote at the general meeting, one (1) shareholder present in person or by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote is a quorum.

In case of a meeting requisitioned by the shareholders, where the quorum is not met the meeting is dissolved. In case of other meetings, where the quorum is not met, the meeting is adjourned. If a meeting is adjourned for lack of quorum, the quorum of the adjourned meeting will be one shareholder present in person or by proxy.
The Sterling Non-Voting Shares carry no voting rights (save where required by law).

Winding up

On a return of capital of the Parent on a winding up or otherwise, the holders of the Parent’s ordinary shares (and any other shares outstanding at the relevant time which rank equally with such shares) will share equally, on a share for share basis, in the Parent’s assets available for distribution, after paying:
• the holders of the Special Voting Shares who will be entitled to receive out of the assets of the Parent available for distribution to its shareholders the sum of, in aggregate, U.S. $1.00 but shall not be entitled to any further participation in the assets of the Parent; and
77
• the holders of the Sterling Non-Voting Shares who will be entitled to receive out of the assets of the Parent available for distribution to its shareholders the sum of, in aggregate, £1.00 but shall not be entitled to any further participation in the assets of the Parent.
Redemption provisions
The Parent’s ordinary shares are not redeemable.
The Special Voting Shares may be redeemed by the Parent for nil consideration in certain circumstances (as set out in the Articles).
The Sterling Non-Voting Shares may be redeemed by the Parent for nil consideration at any time.
Sinking fund provisions
None of the Parent’s shares are subject to any sinking fund provision under the Articles or as a matter of English law.
Liability to further calls
No holder of any share in the Parent is liable to make additional contributions of capital in respect of its shares.
Discriminating provisions
There are no provisions discriminating against a shareholder because of their ownership of a particular number of shares.
Variation of class rights
The Articles treat the Parent’s ordinary shares and the Special Voting Shares as a single class for the purposes of voting. Any special rights attached to any shares in the Parent’s capital may (unless otherwise provided by the terms of issue of the shares of that class) be varied or abrogated, either while the Parent is a going concern or during or in contemplation of a winding up, with the consent in writing of those entitled to attend and vote at general meetings of the Parent representing 75% of the voting rights attaching to the Parent’s ordinary shares and the Special Voting Shares, in aggregate, which may be exercised at such meetings, or with the sanction of 75% of those votes attaching to the Parent’s ordinary shares and the Special Voting Shares, in aggregate, cast on a special resolution proposed at a separate general meeting of all those entitled to attend and vote at the Parent’s general meetings, but not otherwise. The CA 2006 allows an English company to vary class rights of shares by a resolution of 75% of the shareholders of the class in question.
A resolution to vary any class rights relating to the giving, variation, revocation, or renewal of any authority of the directors to allot shares or relating to a reduction of the Parent’s capital may only be varied or abrogated in accordance with the CA 2006 but not otherwise.
The rights attached to a class of shares are not, unless otherwise expressly provided for in the rights attaching to those shares, deemed to be varied by the creation, allotment, or issue of further shares ranking pari passu with or subsequent to them or by the purchase or redemption by the Parent of its own shares in accordance with the CA 2006.

General meetings and notices
The Board has the power to call a general meeting of shareholders at any time. The Board shall determine whether a general meeting (including an annual general meeting) is to be held as a physical general meeting or an electronic general meeting (or a combination thereof). In addition, the Board must convene such a meeting if it has received requests to do so from shareholders representing at least 5% of the paid-up share capital of the Parent as carries voting rights at general meetings in accordance with Section 303 of the CA 2006.
An annual general meeting must be called by not less than 21 clear days’ notice (i.e., excluding the date of receipt or deemed receipt of the notice and the date of the meeting itself). All other general meetings will be called by not less than 14 clear days’ notice. A general meeting may be called by shorter notice if it is agreed to by a majority in number of the shareholders having the right to attend and vote at the meeting, being a majority who together hold not less than 95% in nominal value of the shares giving that right. At least seven (7) clear days’ notice is required for any meeting adjourned for 28 days or more or for an indefinite period.
78
The notice of a general meeting will be given to the shareholders (other than any who, under the provisions of the Articles or the terms of allotment or issue of shares, are not entitled to receive notice), to the Board, to the beneficial owners nominated to enjoy information rights under the CA 2006, and to the auditors. The shareholders entitled to receive notice of and attend a general meeting are those on the share register at the close of business on a day determined by the directors. Under English law, the Parent is required to hold an annual general meeting within six months from the day following the end of its fiscal year and, subject to the foregoing, the meeting may be held at a time and place (whether physical or electronic or a combination thereof) determined by the Board whether within or outside of the U.K.
The notice of general meeting must specify a time (which must not be more than 48 hours, excluding any part of a day that is not a working day, before the time fixed for the meeting) by which a person must be entered on the share register in order to have the right to attend or vote at the meeting. Only such persons or their duly appointed proxies have the right to attend and vote at the meeting of shareholders.
Limitations on rights to own shares
There are no limitations imposed by the Articles or the applicable laws of England & Wales on the rights to own shares, including the right of non-residents or foreign persons to hold or vote the Parent’s shares, other than limitations that would generally apply to all shareholders.
Change of control
There is no specific provision in the Articles that directly would have an effect of delaying, deferring, or preventing a change in control of the Parent and that would operate only with respect to a merger, acquisition, or corporate restructuring involving the Parent or any of its subsidiaries. However, the loyalty voting structure may make it more difficult for a third party to acquire, or attempt to acquire, control of the Parent. As a result of the loyalty voting structure, it is possible that a relatively large portion of the voting rights of the Parent could be concentrated in a relatively small number of holders who would have significant influence over the Parent. Such shareholders participating in the loyalty voting structure could reduce the likelihood of change of control transactions that may otherwise benefit holders of the Parent’s ordinary shares. For a discussion of this risk, see “Item 3. Key Information - D. Risk Factors .”
Disclosure of ownership interests in shares
Under the Articles, shareholders must comply with the notification obligations to the Parent contained in Chapter 5 ( Vote Holder and Issuer Notification Rules ) of the Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules (“DTR”) (including, without limitation, the provisions of DTR 5.1.2) as if the DTR applies to the Parent, save that the obligation arises if the percentage of voting rights reaches, exceeds, or falls below 1% and each one (1) percent threshold thereafter (up or down) up to 100%. In effect, this means that a shareholder must notify the Parent if the percentage of voting rights in the Parent it holds reaches 1% and crosses any one (1) percent threshold thereafter (up or down).
Section 793 of the CA 2006 gives the Parent the power to require persons whom it knows have, or whom it has reasonable cause to believe have, or within the previous three (3) years have had, any ownership interest in any shares of the Parent to disclose specified information regarding those shares. Failure to provide the information requested within the prescribed period (or knowingly or recklessly providing false information) after the date the notice is sent can result in criminal or civil sanctions being imposed against the person in default.

Under the Articles, if any shareholder, or any other person appearing to be interested in the Parent’s shares held by such shareholder, fails to give the Parent the information required by a Section 793 notice, then the Board may withdraw voting rights and place restrictions on the rights to receive dividends, and transfer of such shares (including any shares allotted or issued after the date of the Section 793 notice in respect of those shares).
Changes in share capital

The Articles authorize the Company to allot (with or without conferring rights of renunciation), issue, grant options over or otherwise deal with or dispose of shares in the capital of the Company and to grant rights to subscribe for, or to convert any security into, shares in the capital of the Company to such persons, at such times and upon such terms as the directors may decide, provided that no share may be issued at a discount. Pursuant to a shareholder resolution passed on May 14, 2024, for a
79
period expiring (unless previously revoked, varied or renewed) at the end of the next annual general meeting of the Company or, if sooner, on August 13, 2025, directors are authorized to:

(i)     allot ordinary shares in the Parent, or to grant rights to subscribe for or to convert or exchange any security into shares in the Parent, up to a maximum aggregate nominal amount (i.e., par value) of U.S. $6,682,741.60 and up to an aggregate nominal amount of U.S. $6,682,741.60 where the allotment is in connection with an offer by way of a rights issue;
(ii)     allot Special Voting Shares and to grant rights to subscribe for, or to convert any security into, Special Voting Shares, up to a maximum aggregate nominal amount of $133.70; and
(iii)    exclude pre-emption rights: first, in relation to offers of equity securities by way of rights issue; second, in relation to the allotment of equity securities for cash up to an aggregate nominal amount (i.e., par value) of U.S. $2,004,822.50; and third, in relation to an acquisition or other capital investment up to an aggregate nominal amount (i.e., par value) of U.S. $2,004,822.50.
These provisions are more restrictive than required under English law which does not prescribe a limit for the maximum amounts for allotment of shares or exclusion of pre-emption rights.

Pursuant to a shareholder resolution passed on May 14, 2024, for a period expiring (unless previously revoked, varied or renewed) at the end of the next annual general meeting of the Company or, if sooner, on November 13, 2025, the Parent is authorized to purchase its own ordinary shares on the terms of the share repurchase contracts approved by the shareholders, provided that:

(i) the maximum aggregate number of the Parent’s ordinary shares authorized to be purchased equals 20,048,225, representing 10% of the total then issued ordinary shares, excluding treasury shares;
(ii) the minimum price (exclusive of expenses) which may be paid by the Company for each ordinary share shall be U.S. $0.10; and
(iii) the maximum price (exclusive of expenses) which may be paid to purchase an ordinary share of the Parent is 105% of the average market value of an ordinary share for the five business days prior to the day the purchase is made (subject to any further price restrictions contained in any share repurchase contract).

These provisions are more restrictive than required under English law which does not prescribe a limit for the maximum aggregate number or price paid for an "off market" repurchase of shares.

Loyalty Plan
Scope
The Parent has implemented a Loyalty Plan, the purpose of which is to reward long-term ownership of the Parent’s ordinary shares and promote stability of the Parent’s shareholder base by granting long-term shareholders, subject to certain terms and conditions, with the equivalent of 1.9995 votes for each ordinary share that they hold. The Loyalty Plan is governed by the provisions of the Articles and the Loyalty Plan Terms and Conditions from time to time adopted by the Board, a copy of which is available on the Company’s website, together with some Frequently Asked Questions.
Characteristics of Special Voting Shares
Each Special Voting Share carries 0.9995 votes. The Special Voting Shares and ordinary shares will be treated as if they are a single class of shares and not divided into separate classes for voting purposes (save upon a resolution in respect of any proposed termination of the Loyalty Plan).
The Special Voting Shares have only minimal economic entitlements. Such economic entitlements are designed to comply with English law but are immaterial for investors.

Issue
The number of Special Voting Shares on issue equals the number of ordinary shares on issue. A nominee appointed by the Parent (the “Nominee”), which is currently Computershare Company Nominees Limited, holds the Special Voting Shares on behalf of the shareholders of the Parent as a whole, and will exercise the voting rights attached to those shares in accordance with the Articles.
80
Participation in the Loyalty Plan
In order to become entitled to elect to participate in the Loyalty Plan, a person must maintain ownership in accordance with the Loyalty Plan for a continuous period of three (3) years or more (an “Eligible Person”).
An Eligible Person within the Loyalty Plan Terms and Conditions may elect to participate in the Loyalty Plan by submitting a validly completed and signed election form (the “Election Form”) and, if applicable, the requisite custodial documentation, to the Parent’s designated agent (the “Agent”). The Election Form is available on the Company’s website. Upon receipt of a valid Election Form and, if applicable, custodial documentation, the Agent will register the relevant ordinary shares on a separate register (the “Loyalty Register”). In order for an Eligible Person’s ordinary shares to remain on the Loyalty Register, they may not be sold, disposed of, transferred, pledged or subjected to any lien, fixed or floating charge or other encumbrance, except in very limited circumstances.
Voting arrangements
The Nominee will exercise the votes attaching to the Special Voting Shares held by it from time to time at a general meeting or a class meeting: (a) in respect of any Special Voting Shares associated with ordinary shares held by an Eligible Person, in the same manner as the Eligible Person exercises the votes attaching to those IGT ordinary shares; and (b) in respect of all other Special Voting Shares, in the same percentage as the outcome of the vote of any general meeting (taking into account any votes exercised pursuant to (a) above).
The proxy or voting instruction form in respect of an Eligible Person’s ordinary shares will contain an instruction and authorization in favor of the Nominee to exercise the votes attaching to the Special Voting Shares associated with those ordinary shares in the same manner as that Eligible Person exercises the votes attaching to those ordinary shares.
Transfer or withdrawal
If, at any time and for any reason, one (1) or more ordinary shares are de-registered from the Loyalty Register, or any ordinary shares held by an Eligible Person on the Loyalty Register are sold, disposed of, transferred (other than with the benefit of a waiver in respect of certain permitted transfers), pledged or subjected to any lien, fixed or floating charge or other encumbrance, the Special Voting Shares associated with those ordinary shares will cease to confer on the Eligible Person any voting rights (or any other rights) in connection with those Special Voting Shares and such person will cease to be an Eligible Person in respect of those Special Voting Shares.
A shareholder may request the de-registration of their ordinary shares from the Loyalty Register at any time by submitting a validly completed Withdrawal Form to the Agent. The Agent will release the ordinary shares from the Loyalty Register within three (3) business days thereafter. Upon de-registration from the Loyalty Register, such ordinary shares will be freely transferable. From the date on which the Withdrawal Form is processed by the Agent, the relevant shareholder will be considered to have waived their rights in respect of the relevant Special Voting Shares.
Termination of the Plan
The Loyalty Plan may be terminated at any time with immediate effect by a resolution passed on a poll taken at a general meeting with the approval of members representing 75% or more of the total voting rights attaching to the ordinary shares of members who, being entitled to vote on that resolution, do so in person or by proxy. For the avoidance of doubt, the votes attaching to the Special Voting Shares will not be exercisable upon such resolution.

Upon termination of the Loyalty Plan, the directors may elect to redeem or repurchase the Special Voting Shares from the Nominee for nil consideration and cancel them, or convert the Special Voting Share into deferred shares carrying no voting rights and no economic rights (or any other rights), save that on a return of capital or a winding up, the holder of the deferred shares shall be entitled to, in aggregate, $1.00.
Transfer
The Special Voting Shares may not be transferred, except in exceptional circumstances, e.g., for transfers between Loyalty Plan nominees.
81
Repurchase or redemption
Special Voting Shares may only be purchased or redeemed by the Parent in limited circumstances, including to reduce the number of Special Voting Shares held by the Nominee in order to align the aggregate number of ordinary shares and Special Voting Shares in issue from time to time or upon termination of the Loyalty Plan. Special Voting Shares may be redeemed or repurchased for nil consideration.

Upon the consummation of the Equity Sale and subject to the conditions set forth in the Separation Agreement and Merger Agreement, the Buyer will pay the Company a purchase price before transaction costs and other customary closing adjustments equal to $4.05 billion in cash, subject to certain customary adjustments for pre-Closing estimates of cash, debt, working capital and other adjustments with respect to potential assets and liabilities not transferring from the Company to the Spinco Business (the “Purchase Price”), in each case, as more fully set forth in the Separation Agreement.

The Separation Agreement also governs certain aspects of the relationship between Spinco, Everi and the Buyer after the closing of the Equity Sale and the merger of Buyer Sub with and into Everi (the “Merger”) (the Equity Sale and Merger, together, the “Closing”), including, among other things, provisions with respect to the release of claims, indemnification, restrictive covenants, guarantees, insurance, access to information, record retention and obligations of the Company with respect to completing certain stand-up activities to the extent not completed prior to the Closing in accordance with the Separation Agreement. Both the Company and the Buyer will be subject to two years of mutual non-solicitation obligations, and the Company will be subject to a four-year non-compete in favor of the Buyer. The parties will have ongoing
82
indemnification obligations under the Separation Agreement from and after the Closing with respect to the liabilities related to Spinco assumed by the Buyer through Spinco, and the liabilities related to the Company agreed to be retained by the Company, as applicable. The Separation Agreement provides that, following the effectiveness of the Closing, the Buyer and the Company will guarantee the obligations of their respective subsidiaries under the transaction documents which pursuant to their terms arise at or after the Closing with respect to obligations to be performed after the effectiveness of the Equity Sale.

The foregoing description of the Separation Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Separation Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 4.11 to this Form 20-F and is incorporated herein by reference.

Merger Agreement

As noted above, the Merger Agreement provides for, among other things, the Merger, with Everi as the surviving corporation. As a result of the Merger, Everi would become a direct wholly owned subsidiary of the Buyer. In addition, as noted above, prior to the Merger Effective Time, it is contemplated that the Company will effect the Separation and Equity Sale pursuant to the Separation Agreement as further described above.

In the Merger, each share of Everi common stock that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger (the “Merger Effective Time”) will be cancelled, cease to exist and be converted automatically into the right to receive $14.25 in cash per share of Everi common stock, subject to adjustment in the event of certain transactions with respect to Everi common stock, such as a stock split, stock dividend, or reclassification..

Consummation of the Merger is subject to various and customary conditions, including, among other things: the accuracy of representations and warranties and compliance with covenants, subject to certain customary exceptions; approval by the stockholders of Everi, which was received on November 14, 2024; the consummation of the Separation; and the receipt of regulatory approvals. The Merger Agreement provides that the parties will use their reasonable best efforts and take other actions to obtain the specified regulatory approvals for the Proposed Transaction, subject to certain exceptions as set forth in the Merger Agreement. Assuming the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, the Company expects the Merger to close by the end of the third quarter of 2025.

The Company, Spinco and Everi each make certain customary representations, warranties and covenants, as applicable, in the Merger Agreement, including covenants with respect to the conduct of the Spinco Business and the business of Everi and its subsidiaries, as applicable, during the period between signing and the earlier of the termination of the Merger Agreement and the Closing. Each of the Company and Everi also covenants, among other things, that neither party nor any of its subsidiaries will (i) solicit certain alternative transactions or (ii) enter into discussions concerning, or provide information or data in connection with, such alternative transactions (except under limited circumstances); provided that the Company may solicit or enter into discussions concerning, or provide information or data in connection with, transactions with respect to the business of the Company excluding the Spinco Business.

The Merger Agreement contains specified termination rights for the Company, Everi and the Buyer, including, among other things, that the Company or the Buyer may terminate the Merger Agreement if Everi’s board adopts, approves, endorses, declares advisable or recommends to its stockholders an acquisition proposal other than the contemplated transaction, and under other circumstances as set forth in the Merger Agreement. The Merger Agreement may also be terminated by the Company, Everi or the Buyer, subject to specified limitations, if the Closing is not consummated by July 26, 2025 (the “Outside Date”), provided that the Outside Date may be extended under certain circumstances as specified in the Merger Agreement, including with respect to the timing of regulatory approvals and the Marketing Period (as defined in the Merger Agreement). The Merger Agreement further provides that in connection with a termination of the Merger Agreement under specified circumstances, each of the Company, Everi and the Buyer may be obligated to pay a termination fee and/or reimburse the other parties for certain specified costs.

The foregoing description of the Merger Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Merger Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 4.10 to this Form 20-F and is incorporated herein by reference.

83
Employee Matters Agreement

The Employee Matters Agreement, among other things, allocates among the parties the pre-and post-Closing liabilities in respect of the current and former employees of the Spinco Business (including liabilities in respect of employee compensation and benefit plans covering such employees). Subject to various exceptions, Spinco will generally assume liabilities in respect of the current and former employees of the Spinco Business and any assets dedicated thereto, and the Company will generally retain employee liabilities and assets related to the Company.

The foregoing description of the Employee Matters Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Employee Matters Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 4.12 to this Form 20-F and is incorporated herein by reference.

Real Estate Matters Agreement

The Real Estate Matters Agreement governs the allocation and transfer of real estate between the Company and Spinco. Pursuant to the Real Estate Matters Agreement, the Company may transfer to, or share with, Spinco certain leased property associated with the Spinco Business. The Real Estate Matters Agreement describes the manner in which the Company will conduct an internal feasibility review to determine the suitability of certain leased property for a sublease or license to Spinco. Following such review, the Company and Spinco may agree to (i) enter into a sublease or license of a portion of a leased property, or (ii) secure an alternative location and/or remote work arrangement for employees and operations which would otherwise have continued at such leased property.

The foregoing description of the Real Estate Matters Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Real Estate Matters Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 4.13 to this Form 20-F and is incorporated herein by reference.

Tax Matters Agreement

The Tax Matters Agreement sets forth, among other things, the parties’ respective rights, responsibilities and obligations with respect to taxes of Spinco, the Company, the Buyer and their respective subsidiaries (including taxes arising in the ordinary course of business and taxes imposed in connection with the Proposed Transaction), tax attributes, the preparation and filing of tax returns, the control of audits and other tax proceedings, and assistance and cooperation in respect of tax matters. Generally, the Company will be responsible for taxes incurred by Spinco and its subsidiaries through the date of the Equity Sale, and Spinco (and the Buyer through its ownership of Spinco) will be responsible for taxes incurred by Spinco and its subsidiaries following the date of the Equity Sale. The Company will also generally be responsible for any taxes imposed on Spinco in connection with the Proposed Transaction, taxes imposed on Spinco for taxable periods ending on or before the date of the Equity Sale, and taxes incurred as a result of the Separation.

The foregoing description of the Tax Matters Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Tax Matters Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 4.14 to this Form 20-F and is incorporated herein by reference.

Support Agreement

The Support Agreement contains, among other things, an agreement by De Agostini not to directly or indirectly, and not to permit any of its affiliates to, engage in, manage or operate (or own an equity interest in any person who engages in, manages or operates), anywhere in the world, any business that competes with the Restricted Business (as defined in the Support Agreement), so long as a designee of De Agostini or its affiliates is serving as a member of the board of directors or similar body of the Buyer or an affiliate thereof or De Agostini and its affiliates collectively own at least 10% of the outstanding equity interests of the Buyer. The Support Agreement also contains certain restrictions on the transfer of all of the shares of capital stock of the Company owned or subsequently acquired by De Agostini if doing so would reasonably be expected to prevent, materially impede or materially delay consummation of the Proposed Transaction, and a requirement to make and not withdraw certain regulatory filings, and to provide information in support of the financing and filings with the SEC necessary in connection with the consummation of the Proposed Transaction. The Support Agreement also provides that De Agostini may not disclose certain information regarding the Company or Everi to the Buyer and its affiliates. The Support Agreement automatically terminates upon the earliest of the Closing, the valid termination of the Merger Agreement and the valid termination of the Separation Agreement.

Observer Agreement with De Agostini

On May 16, 2018, the Parent’s directors approved the observer agreement (the “Observer Agreement”) between De Agostini and the Company permitting De Agostini to appoint an observer to attend meetings of the Parent’s directors. On November 8, 2023, the Observer Agreement was renewed for a new two (2) year term and Alessandro Vergottini, the Chief Financial Officer of De Agostini, acknowledged and agreed to his renewed appointment by De Agostini as an observer pursuant to the terms of the Observer Agreement. The Observer Agreement will expire following the meeting of the Board at which the financial results for the third quarter of 2025 are reviewed.

Related Party Agreements

D. Exchange Controls
Other than applicable taxation, anti-money laundering, and counter-terrorist financing law and regulations and certain economic sanctions which may be in force from time to time, there are currently no English laws or regulations, or any provision of the Articles, which would prevent the transfer of capital or remittance of dividends, interest, and other payments to holders of the Parent’s securities who are not residents of the U.K. on a general basis.

E. Taxation
Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations
This section summarizes certain material U.S. federal income tax considerations regarding the ownership and disposition of the Parent’s ordinary shares by a U.S. holder (as defined below). This summary is based on U.S. federal income tax law, including the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), the Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder, administrative guidance and court decisions in effect on the date hereof, all of which are subject to change, possibly with retroactive effect, and to differing interpretations. No ruling from the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) has been sought with respect to any U.S. federal income tax considerations described below, and there can be no assurance that the IRS or a court will not take a contrary position. The discussion assumes that the Parent’s shareholders hold their ordinary shares, as “capital assets” within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Code (generally, property held for investment). This discussion further assumes that all items or transactions identified as debt will be respected as such for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

This summary does not constitute tax advice and does not address all aspects of U.S. federal income taxation that may be relevant to the Parent’s shareholders in light of their personal circumstances, including any tax consequences arising under the tax on certain investment income pursuant to the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010 or arising under the U.S. Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (or any Treasury regulations or administrative guidance promulgated thereunder, any intergovernmental agreement entered into in connection therewith or any non-U.S. laws, rules or directives implementing or relating to any of the foregoing), or to shareholders subject to special treatment under the Code, including (but not limited to):
• banks, thrifts, mutual funds, and other financial institutions;
85
• regulated investment companies;
• real estate investment trusts;
• traders in securities that elect to apply a mark-to-market method of accounting;
• broker-dealers;
• tax-exempt organizations and pension funds;
• U.S. holders that own (directly, indirectly, or constructively) 10% or more of the Company’s stock (by vote or value);
• insurance companies;
• dealers or brokers in securities or foreign currency;
• individual retirement and other deferred accounts;
• U.S. holders whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar;
• U.S. expatriates;
• “passive foreign investment companies” or “controlled foreign corporations”;
• persons subject to the alternative minimum tax;
• U.S. holders that hold their shares as part of a straddle, hedging, conversion, constructive sale or other risk reduction transaction; and
• U.S. holders that received their shares through the exercise of employee stock options or otherwise as compensation or through a tax-qualified retirement plan.

This discussion does not address any non-income tax considerations or any state, local or non-U.S. tax consequences. For purposes of this discussion, a “U.S. holder” means a beneficial owner of the Parent’s ordinary shares that is, for U.S. federal income tax purposes:
• an individual who is a citizen or resident of the U.S.;
• a corporation (or other entity treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes) created or organized in the U.S. or under the laws of the U.S., any state thereof or the District of Columbia;
• an estate, the income of which is includible in gross income for U.S. federal income tax purposes regardless of its source; or
• a trust if: (1) a court within the U.S. is able to exercise primary supervision over the administration of the trust and one or more U.S. persons have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust; or (2) the trust has a valid election in effect to be treated as a U.S. person for U.S. federal income tax purposes.
This discussion does not purport to be a comprehensive analysis or description of all potential U.S. federal income tax considerations. Each of the Parent’s shareholders is urged to consult with such shareholder’s tax advisor with respect to the particular tax consequences of the ownership and disposition of the Parent’s ordinary shares to such shareholder.
If a partnership, including for this purpose any entity or arrangement that is treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes, holds the Parent’s ordinary shares, the tax treatment of a partner therein will generally depend upon the status of such partner, the activities of the partnership and certain determinations made at the partner level. Any such holder that is a partnership and the partners in such partnership should consult their tax advisors about the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the ownership and disposition of their ordinary shares.
Ownership and Disposition of the Parent’s Ordinary Shares
The following discusses certain material U.S. federal income tax consequences of the ownership and disposition of the Parent's ordinary shares by U.S. holders and assumes that the Parent will be a resident exclusively of the U.K. for all tax purposes.
Taxation of Distributions
Subject to the discussion below under “Passive Foreign Investment Company Considerations,” the gross amount of distributions with respect to the Parent’s ordinary shares (including the amount of any non-U.S. withholding taxes) will be taxable as dividends, to the extent that they are paid out of the Parent’s current or accumulated earnings and profits, as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles. Such dividends will be includable in a U.S. holder’s gross income as ordinary dividend income on the day actually or constructively received by the U.S. holder. Such dividends will not be eligible for the dividends-received deduction allowed to corporations under the Code.

The gross amount of the dividends paid by the Parent to non-corporate U.S. holders may be eligible to be taxed at reduced rates of U.S. federal income tax applicable to “qualified dividend income.” Recipients of dividends from non-U.S. corporations will be taxed at this rate, provided that certain holding period requirements are satisfied and certain other requirements are met, if the dividends are received from “qualified foreign corporations,” which generally include corporations eligible for the benefits of an income tax treaty with the U.S. that the U.S. Secretary of the Treasury determines is satisfactory and includes an
86
information exchange program. The U.S. Department of the Treasury and the IRS have determined that the U.K.- U.S. Income Tax Treaty is satisfactory for these purposes and the Parent believes that it is eligible for benefits under such treaty. Dividends paid with respect to stock of a foreign corporation which stock is readily tradable on an established securities market in the U.S. will also be treated as having been received from a “qualified foreign corporation.” The U.S. Department of the Treasury and the IRS have determined that common stock is considered readily tradable on an established securities market if it is listed on an established securities market in the U.S., such as the NYSE.

Non-corporate U.S. holders that do not meet a minimum holding period requirement during which they are not protected from the risk of loss, or that elect to treat the dividend income as “investment income” pursuant to Section 163(d)(4) of the Code, will not be eligible for the reduced rates of taxation regardless of the Parent’s status as a qualified foreign corporation. In addition, even if the minimum holding period requirement has been met, the rate reduction will not apply to dividends if the recipient of a dividend is obligated to make related payments with respect to positions in substantially similar or related property. Each U.S. holder should consult its own tax advisors regarding the application of these rules given its particular circumstances.
To the extent that the amount of any distribution exceeds the Parent’s current and accumulated earnings and profits for a taxable year, as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles, the excess will first be treated as a tax-free return of capital to the extent of each U.S. holder’s adjusted tax basis in the Parent’s ordinary shares and will reduce such U.S. holder’s basis accordingly. The balance of the excess, if any, will be taxed as capital gain, which would be long-term capital gain if the holder has held the Parent’s ordinary shares for more than one year at the time the distribution is received. Long-term capital gain of certain non-corporate U.S. holders, including individuals, is generally taxed at reduced rates. The deduction of capital losses is subject to limitations.
The amount of any distribution paid in foreign currency will be the U.S. dollar value of the foreign currency distributed by the Parent, calculated by reference to the exchange rate in effect on the date the distribution is includable in the U.S. holder’s income, regardless of whether the payment is in fact converted into U.S. dollars on the date of receipt. Generally, a U.S. holder would not recognize any foreign currency gain or loss if the foreign currency is converted into U.S. dollars on the date the payment is received. However, any gain or loss resulting from currency exchange fluctuations during the period from the date the U.S. holder includes the distribution payment in income to the date such U.S. holder actually converts the payment into U.S. dollars will generally be treated as ordinary income or loss.
Sale, Exchange, or Other Taxable Disposition
Subject to the discussion below under “Passive Foreign Investment Company Considerations,” a U.S. holder will generally recognize taxable gain or loss on the sale, exchange or other taxable disposition of the Parent’s ordinary shares in an amount equal to the difference, if any, between the amount realized on the sale, exchange, or other taxable disposition and the U.S. holder’s tax basis in such Parent’s ordinary shares. Such gain or loss generally will be capital gain or loss and will be long-term capital gain or loss if the ordinary shares have been held for more than one year. Long-term capital gain of certain non-corporate U.S. holders, including individuals, is generally taxed at reduced rates. The deduction of capital losses is subject to limitations.
Passive Foreign Investment Company Considerations
A Passive Foreign Investment Company (“PFIC”) is any foreign corporation if, after the application of certain “look-through” rules, (a) at least 75% of its gross income is “passive income” as that term is defined in the relevant provisions of the Code, or (b) at least 50% of the average value of its assets produces “passive income” or is held for the production of “passive income.” The determination as to PFIC status is a fact-intensive determination that includes ascertaining the fair market value (or, in certain circumstances, tax basis) of all the Parent’s assets on a quarterly basis and the character of each item of income, and cannot be completed until the close of a taxable year. If a U.S. holder is treated as owning PFIC stock, such U.S. holder will be subject to special rules generally intended to reduce or eliminate the benefit of the deferral of U.S. federal income tax that results from investing in a foreign corporation that does not distribute all of its earnings on a current basis. These rules may adversely affect the tax treatment to a U.S. holder of distributions paid by the Parent and of sales, exchanges, and other dispositions of the Parent’s ordinary shares, and may result in other adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences.
The Parent believes that the ordinary shares should not be treated as shares of a PFIC in the current taxable year, and the Parent does not expect that it will become a PFIC in the future. However, there can be no assurance that the IRS will not successfully challenge this position or that the Parent will not become a PFIC at some future time as a result of changes in the Parent’s assets, income, or business operations.
87
Each U.S. holder is urged to consult its tax advisor concerning the U.S. federal income tax consequences of acquiring, owning or disposing of the Parent’s ordinary shares if the Parent is or becomes classified as a PFIC, including the possibility of making a mark-to-market election. The remainder of the discussion below assumes that the Parent is not a PFIC, has not been a PFIC and will not become a PFIC in the future.

Information Reporting
U.S. individuals and certain entities with interests in “specified foreign financial assets” (including, among other assets, the Parent’s ordinary shares, unless such shares were held on such U.S. holder’s behalf through certain financial institutions) with values in excess of certain thresholds are required to file an information report with the IRS. Taxpayers that fail to file the information report when required are subject to penalties. U.S. holders should consult their own tax advisors as to the possible obligation to file such information reports in light of their particular circumstances.

Special Voting Shares
NO STATUTORY, JUDICIAL OR ADMINISTRATIVE AUTHORITY DIRECTLY DISCUSSES HOW THE RECEIPT, OWNERSHIP, OR LOSS OF ENTITLEMENT TO INSTRUCT THE NOMINEE ON HOW TO VOTE IN RESPECT OF SPECIAL VOTING SHARES SHOULD BE TREATED FOR U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX PURPOSES AND AS A RESULT, THE U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES THEREOF ARE UNCERTAIN. ACCORDINGLY, U.S. HOLDERS SHOULD CONSULT THEIR TAX ADVISORS AS TO THE TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE RECEIPT, OWNERSHIP, AND LOSS OF ENTITLEMENT TO INSTRUCT THE NOMINEE ON HOW TO VOTE IN RESPECT OF SPECIAL VOTING SHARES.
While the tax consequences of the receipt, ownership, and loss of entitlement to instruct the nominee on how to vote in respect of Special Voting Shares are unclear, such receipt, ownership, and loss is not expected to constitute a separate transaction from ownership of the ordinary shares for U.S. federal income tax purposes. As such, neither the receipt of the Special Voting Shares nor the loss of entitlement to instruct the nominee on how to vote the Special Voting Shares is expected to give rise to a taxable event for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

Material U.K. Tax Considerations
The following summary is intended to apply only as a general guide to certain U.K. tax considerations, and is based on current U.K. tax law and current published practice of His Majesty’s Revenue and Customs (“HMRC”), both of which are subject to change at any time, possibly with retrospective effect. It relates only to certain limited aspects of the U.K. taxation treatment of investors who are resident and, in the case of individuals, domiciled or deemed domiciled in (and only in) the U.K. for U.K. tax purposes (except to the extent that the position of non-U.K. resident shareholders is expressly referred to), who will hold the Parent’s ordinary shares as investments (other than under an individual savings account or a self-invested personal pension) and who are the absolute beneficial owners of the Parent’s ordinary shares. The statements may not apply to certain classes of investors such as (but not limited to) persons acquiring their ordinary shares in connection with an office or employment, dealers in securities, insurance companies, pension schemes, qualifying asset holding companies, and collective investment schemes.
Any shareholder or potential investor should obtain advice from his or her own investment or taxation advisor.
Dividends
The Parent will not be required to withhold U.K. tax at the source from dividend payments it makes.
U.K. resident individual shareholders
All dividends received by an individual shareholder from the Parent or from other sources will form part of that shareholder’s total income for income tax purposes and will constitute the top slice of that income. For the tax year 2024/2025, to the extent that the dividends they receive (whether from the Parent or other companies) exceed the tax free dividend allowance of £500, they are taxed on such dividends at either 8.75% (to the extent shareholders are liable to tax only at the basic rate), 33.75% (to the extent shareholders are liable to pay tax at the higher rate) or 39.35% (to the extent shareholders are liable to pay tax at the additional rate). It is expected that the dividend tax rates will remain at the current rates from April 6, 2025 for the new tax year 2025/2026.
88
U.K. resident corporate shareholders
A corporate shareholder resident in the U.K. for tax purposes which is a “small company” for the purposes of Chapter 2 of Part 9A of the Corporation Tax Act 2009 will not be subject to U.K. corporation tax on any dividend received from the Parent provided that certain conditions are met (including an anti-avoidance condition).
Other corporate shareholders resident in the U.K. for tax purposes will not be subject to U.K. corporation tax on any dividend received from the Parent so long as the dividends fall within an exempt class and certain conditions are met. For example (and without limitation), (i) dividends paid on ordinary shares that are not redeemable and do not carry any present or future preferential rights to dividends or to a company’s assets on its winding up; and (ii) dividends paid to a person holding less than a 10% interest in the Parent, should generally fall within an exempt class. However, the exemptions mentioned above are not comprehensive and are subject to anti-avoidance rules.

If the conditions for exemption are not met or cease to be satisfied, if anti-avoidance provisions apply, or if such a corporate shareholder elects an otherwise exempt dividend to be taxable, the shareholder will be subject to U.K. corporation tax on dividends received from the Parent, at the rate of corporation tax applicable to that corporate shareholder (currently, 25%).

Non-U.K. resident shareholders
A shareholder resident outside the U.K. for tax purposes and who holds the Parent’s ordinary shares as investments will not generally be liable to tax in the U.K. on any dividend received from the Parent unless he or she carries on (whether solely or in partnership) a trade, profession or vocation in the U.K. through a branch or agency (or, in the case of a corporate holder of ordinary shares where the dividend exemption does not apply, through a permanent establishment) to which the ordinary shares are attributable. There are certain exceptions for trading in the U.K. through independent agents, such as some brokers and investment managers.
A non-U.K. resident shareholder may also be subject to taxation on dividend income under local law. A shareholder who is not solely resident in the U.K. for tax purposes should consult his or her own tax advisors concerning his or her tax liabilities (in the U.K. and any other country) on dividends received from the Parent, whether he or she is entitled to claim any part of the tax credit and, if so, the procedure for doing so, and whether any double taxation relief is due in any country in which he or she is subject to tax.
Taxation of Capital Gains
Disposal of the Parent’s Ordinary Shares
A disposal or deemed disposal of the Parent's ordinary shares by a shareholder who is resident in the U.K. for tax purposes may, depending upon the shareholder’s circumstances and subject to any available exemptions and reliefs (such as the annual exempt amount for individuals), give rise to a chargeable gain or an allowable loss for the purposes of U.K. taxation of capital gains.
If an individual shareholder becomes liable to U.K. capital gains tax on the disposal of the Parent’s ordinary shares, the applicable rate (from 30 October 2024) will be either 18% to the extent shareholders are liable to tax only at the basic rate or 24% (to the extent shareholders are liable to pay tax at the higher rate or the additional rate), respectively (save in some limited circumstances).

If a corporate shareholder becomes liable to U.K. corporation tax on the disposal (or deemed disposal) of ordinary shares, the main rate of U.K. corporation tax (currently, 25%) would apply, subject to any exemptions, reliefs and/or allowable losses.

A shareholder which is not resident in the U.K. for tax purposes should not normally be liable to U.K. taxation on chargeable gains on a disposal or deemed disposal of the Parent’s ordinary shares unless the person is carrying on (whether solely or in a partnership) a trade, profession or vocation in the U.K. through a branch or agency (or, in the case of a corporate holder of ordinary shares, through a permanent establishment) to which the ordinary shares are attributable. However, an individual shareholder who has ceased to be resident in the U.K. for a period of less than five (5) years (and had U.K. residence for at least four (4) out of the seven (7) tax years immediately prior to the year of departure) and who disposes of the Parent’s ordinary shares during that period of temporary non-residence may be liable upon return to the U.K. (or upon ceasing to be regarded as resident outside the U.K.) to U.K. taxation on any capital gain so realized (subject to any available exemption or relief).
89
Diverted Profits Tax

The U.K. diverted profits tax (“DPT”) is currently separate from U.K. corporation tax and is charged at a higher rate of 31% (subject to certain limited exceptions). It is an anti-avoidance measure aimed at protecting the U.K. tax base against the artificial diversion of profits that are being earned by activities carried out in the U.K. but which are not otherwise being taxed in the U.K., in particular as a result of arrangements amongst companies in the same multinational group. The U.K.’s network of double tax treaties does not currently offer protection from a DPT charge. In the event that the rules apply to certain arrangements, then upfront payment of HMRC’s estimate of the deemed tax liability may be required. If any of our U.K. or non-U.K. companies is liable for DPT as a result of intra-group arrangements, this could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s and/or the Parent’s results. HMRC’s response to the June 19, 2023 consultation to reform U.K. law in relation to transfer pricing, permanent establishment, and DPT, published on January 16, 2024, proposed to remove DPT’s status as a separate tax and bring in an equivalent charge to U.K. corporation tax. Broadly, that reform would be intended to clarify the relationship between DPT and transfer pricing and provide access to treaty benefits for DPT.

Inheritance Tax
The Parent’s ordinary shares will be assets situated in the U.K. for the purposes of U.K. inheritance tax. A gift or settlement of such assets by, or on the death of, an individual holder of such assets may (subject to certain exemptions and reliefs and depending upon the shareholder’s circumstances) give rise to a liability to U.K. inheritance tax even if the holder is not a resident of or domiciled in the U.K. for tax purposes. For inheritance tax purposes, a transfer of assets at less than market value may be treated as a gift and particular rules apply to gifts where the donor reserves or retains some benefit.
A charge to inheritance tax may arise in certain circumstances where the Parent’s ordinary shares are held by close companies and by trustees of settlements. Shareholders should consult an appropriate tax advisor as to any inheritance tax implications if they intend to make a gift or transfer at less than market value or intend to hold the Parent’s ordinary shares through a close company or trust arrangement.
Shareholders and/or potential investors who are in any doubt as to their tax position, or who are subject to tax in any jurisdiction other than the U.K., should consult a suitable professional advisor.

Item 11.        Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

The Company’s activities expose it to a variety of market risks including interest rate risk and foreign currency exchange rate risk. The Company’s overall risk management strategy focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimize potential adverse effects on its performance through ongoing operational and finance activities. The Company monitors and manages its exposure to such risks both centrally and at the local level, as appropriate, as part of its overall risk management program with the objective of seeking to reduce the potential adverse effects of such risks on its results of operations and financial position.

Depending upon the risk assessment, the Company uses selected derivative hedging instruments, including principally interest rate swaps and foreign currency forward contracts, for the purposes of managing interest rate risk and currency risks arising from its operations and sources of financing. The Company’s policy is not to enter into such contracts for speculative purposes.

The following section provides qualitative and quantitative disclosures on the effects that these risks may have. The quantitative data reported below does not have any predictive value and does not reflect the complexity of the markets or reactions which may result from any changes that are assumed to have taken place.

Interest Rate Risk

Indebtedness

The Company’s exposure to changes in market interest rates relates primarily to its cash and financial liabilities which bear floating interest rates. The Company’s policy is to manage interest cost using a mix of fixed and variable rate debt. The Company has historically used various techniques to mitigate the risks associated with future changes in interest rates, including entering into interest rate swap and treasury rate lock agreements.

At December 31, 2024 and 2023, approximately 25% and 28% of the Company’s debt portfolio was exposed to interest rate fluctuations, respectively. The Company’s exposure to floating rates of interest primarily relates to the Revolving Credit Facilities and Euro Term Loan Facilities due January 2027. At December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company did not hold any interest rate swaps.

A hypothetical 100 basis points increase in interest rates for 2024 and 2023, with all other variables held constant, would have resulted in approximately $9 million and $11 million, of incremental interest expense attributed to continuing operations, respectively, and approximately $4 million of incremental interest expense attributed to discontinued operations for both periods.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk

The Company operates on an international basis across a number of geographical locations. The Company is exposed to (i) transactional foreign exchange risk when an entity enters into transactions in a currency other than its functional currency, and (ii) translation foreign exchange risk which arises when the Company translates the financial statements of its foreign entities into U.S. dollars for the preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Transactional Risk

The Company’s subsidiaries generally execute their operating activities in their respective functional currencies. In circumstances where the Company enters into transactions in a currency other than the functional currency of the relevant entity, the Company seeks to minimize its exposure by (i) sharing risk with its customers (for example, in limited circumstances, but whenever possible, the Company negotiates clauses into its contracts that allows for price adjustments should a material change in foreign exchange rates occur), (ii) creating a natural hedge by netting receipts and payments, (iii) utilizing foreign currency borrowings, and (iv) where applicable, by entering into foreign currency forward and option contracts.

The principal foreign currency to which the Company is exposed is the euro. A hypothetical 10% decrease in the year end U.S. dollar to euro exchange rate, with all other variables held constant, would have resulted in lower income from continuing operations before provision for income taxes of approximately $86 million and $110 million for December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Our euro exposure primarily arises from euro denominated long-term debt. Based on our long-term forecast, the Company undertakes to match and maintain the mix of euro denominated debt to the mix of euro sourced EBITDA.

91
From time to time, the Company’s subsidiaries enter into foreign currency forward and option contracts to reduce the exposure associated with certain firm commitments, variable service revenues, and certain assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies. These contracts generally have average maturities of 12 months or less, and are regularly renewed to provide continuing coverage throughout the year. It is the Company’s policy to negotiate the terms of the hedge derivatives to match the terms of the hedged item to maximize hedge effectiveness.

At December 31, 2024, the Company’s subsidiaries had forward contracts for the sale of approximately $93 million of foreign currency (primarily euro, Canadian dollar, Swiss franc, New Taiwan dollar, and Colombian Peso) and the purchase of approximately $918 million of foreign currency (primarily euro, U.S. dollar, British pounds, and Mexican peso).

At December 31, 2023, the Company’s subsidiaries had forward contracts for the sale of approximately $79 million of foreign currency (primarily Canadian dollar, Australian dollar, Swiss franc, Czech koruna, and New Taiwan dollar) and the purchase of approximately $229 million of foreign currency (primarily U.S. dollar, British pounds, Canadian dollar, euro, and Mexican peso).

Translation Risk

Certain of the Company’s subsidiaries are located in countries that are outside of the U.S., in particular the Eurozone. As the Company’s reporting currency is the U.S. dollar, the income statements of those entities are converted into U.S. dollars using the average exchange rate for the period, and while revenues and costs are unchanged in local currency, changes in exchange rates may lead to effects on the converted balances of revenues, costs, and the result in U.S. dollars. The monetary assets and liabilities of consolidated entities that have a reporting currency other than the U.S. dollar are translated into U.S. dollars at the period-end foreign exchange rate. The effects of these changes in foreign exchange rates are recognized directly in the Consolidated Statements of Shareholders’ Equity within accumulated other comprehensive income.

The Company’s foreign currency exposure primarily arises from changes between the U.S. dollar and the euro. A hypothetical 10% decrease in the U.S. dollar to euro exchange rate, with all other variables held constant, would have increased equity by $60 million and $52 million for 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures
IGT management maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s reports that it files or furnishes under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the CEO and CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. In designing and evaluating its disclosure controls and procedures, IGT recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, as the Company’s are designed to do.
As required by Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act, an evaluation of the effectiveness of the IGT’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of December 31, 2024 was conducted under the supervision and with the participation of its management including its CEO and CFO. Based on this evaluation, its CEO and CFO concluded that its disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of December 31, 2024 at a reasonable assurance level.
Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
IGT’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined by Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act).
The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
IGT’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:
• pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company;
• provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded, as necessary, to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are made only in accordance with authorizations of the Company’s management and directors; and
• provide reasonable assurance that unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company’s assets, that could have a material effect on the financial statements, would be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in business conditions or due to non-compliance with applicable policies and procedures.
IGT’s management assessed the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024 based upon the framework presented in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this assessment, management concluded that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2024.

93
IGT’s independent registered public accounting firm, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, has audited the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024 as stated in their report appearing in “Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm” included in “Item 18.

Item 16K.    Cybersecurity

Cybersecurity Risk Management Processes

As discussed in Part I, Item 3.D – Risk Factors , the Company faces an evolving cybersecurity and information security risk landscape that could impact the achievement of strategic, financial and operational objectives. While it is not possible to identify or anticipate every cybersecurity and information security risk, the Company has developed, implemented, and maintained cybersecurity measures to safeguard our information systems and protect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of our data. These include processes for assessing, identifying, and managing material risks from cyber and information security threats, which are incorporated into the Company’s enterprise risk management program, an d we test, evaluate, and evolve our processes, security measures, and incident response, as appropriate.

To operate the business and provide products and services to our customers, the Company owns and maintains or works with third parties to employ various information systems, or electronic information resources. These information systems include physical or virtual infrastructure controlled by such information resources (or components thereof), organized and overseen by the Global Information Security (“GIS”) team in collaboration with the business to collect, process, maintain, use, share, disseminate or dispose of the Company’s information to maintain and support operations. The Chief Information Officer (the “CIO”) leads the GIS function of the Company.

GIS maintains information and cyber security risk management practices and processes designed to identify, analyze, evaluate and address various cybersecurity threats faced by the Company. Any potential cybersecurity incident could adversely affect the confidentiality, integrity or availability of our information systems or any information residing therein, and these threats include external attempts to breach and compromise systems, social engineering, insider threats, mishandling of or failure to comply with security policies and not adhering to published guidance on how to operate in accordance with cybersecurity practices. To mitigate our cybersecurity risk, GIS has designed various cybersecurity processes to prevent, detect, report, mitigate and remediate threats and vulnerabilities and protect the confidentiality, integrity and availability of information. Under the supervision of the CIO, the Chief Information Security Officer (the “CISO”) oversees the Company’s information security programs maintained throughout the organization and ensures the integration of policies, procedures and controls into business processes.

GIS performs certain operational aspects of the information and cyber security program by partnering with business units and senior management to conduct ongoing impact and risk assessment. The GIS team serves as the Company’s first level of information and cyber security defense monitoring, with responsibility for identifying and escalating cybersecurity incidents pursuant to established internal procedures. When a cybersecurity incident occurs, GIS coordinates and provides timely, organized, and informed responses to mitigate the damage or loss to the Company’s IT systems, network and data and to minimize economic, reputational and other harms to the Company and its customers, employees and partners .

Cybersecurity Governance and Oversight Responsibilities

To support the effectiveness of the information and cyber security risk management practices, the Company has implemented a program and governance model that describes the roles, responsibilities and expectations across the Company:

• Board and Audit Committee : The Board reviews the adequacy and effectiveness of the Company’s cyber and information security program, including the various policies, practices, and internal controls. The Audit Committee holds dedicated sessions to receive and discuss updates on data protection and cybersecurity and engages with management on the Company’s incident prevention plans and policies, threat-detection measures and prompt response to malicious activity and attacks. Through the Audit Committee, the Board receives periodic updates on cyber security risk oversight and related matters, including the receipt of annual reports on cyber and information security from the CIO, CISO, and Audit Committee.
• Information and Cyber Security Program Owners: The Senior Vice President, CIO, and Vice President, CISO own the GIS Information and Cyber Security Program. The CISO operates the Company’s cyber and information security program under the direct supervision of the CIO, and the CIO reports directly into the Company’s CFO.
• Information and Security Governance Committee (or the “ISGC”): The ISGC , comprised of senior management and led by the CISO, reviews GIS policies, standards and other governance documents at least annually, or upon need of a significant change. Decisions and recommendations from the committee are communicated to executive management and the Board, as appropriate, by the CISO.
96
• Cybersecurity Incident Response Committee (or the “CIRC”): The Company has established a cross-functional CIRC charged with reviewing significant cybersecurity incidents escalated by the CISO to complete a materiality analysis to support the identification of appropriate steps, which may include disclosure in accordance with applicable SEC rules and regulation and other law.
• Senior Management: Senior management is responsible for collaborating with GIS to implement information and cyber security processes into business operations or functional areas, as appropriate.

Cybersecurity and Our Products and Services

Customers entrust the Company to safeguard their data, and GIS ensures that trust with teams dedicated to maintaining that confidentiality, integrity, and availability of customer data. GIS identifies cybersecurity risks and tracks mitigation activities, testing and monitoring of the operational effectiveness of controls to ensure business commitments are achieved. In addition to internal management of data security controls, GIS undergoes third-party assessments each year to validate that controls are suitably designed and operating effectively. These independent assessments include: (i) internal risk assessments; (ii) System and Organizational Controls (“SOC”) 1, SOC 2, and SOC 3 audits; (iii) Payment Card Industry assessments; (iv) World Lottery Association assessments; and (v) ISO 27001 certification audits.

GIS has incorporated secure practices into the software development lifecycle, which includes risk assessments of projects, rigorous testing of application and network changes, issue tracking to resolution prior to deployment of changes, governance over our environment and providing a structured, measurable process to ensure solutions are managed and sustainable with a security focus.

IGT’s Global Information Security Management System (“ISMS”) addresses security concerns related to safeguarding customer data by guiding the management of the overall information security management framework and developing information security documentation, including security policies, security standards and protocols or procedures. The goals pursued by ISMS include:

• Complying with business, legal, and regulatory requirements to maintain the confidentiality, integrity and availability of IGT information assets and services;
• Implementing industry best practices at the program, process and system levels;
• Maintaining IGT’s ability to continue services in the face of events and major disruptions;
• Implementing controls to protect IGT information against theft, abuse and other forms of harm or loss; and
• Designing and implementing a system of internal controls designed to protect IGT and its stakeholders.

IGT’s GIS team focuses on early detection of risks, including cybersecurity threats, through a variety of testing methods that are selected and implemented to align with industry best practices, which include penetration and vulnerability scanning of systems and environments. Findings from these tests are tracked to remediation and reported to executive management (including the Chief Financial Officer, General Counsel, Chief Accounting Officer, and Chief Audit Executive) and the Audit Committee.

In addition to the Company’s monitoring capabilities, internal and external parties can also escalate a suspected information or cyber security threat to GIS through an automated reporting system. As needed, the GIS team coordinates a response with other departments (including the Legal department and executive team) by way of the CISO. If management deems a cybersecurity incident material, the Company will report the cybersecurity incident consistent with applicable rules and regulations, including those of the SEC. GIS also introduced the Third-Party Risk Assessments program to evaluate the potential impact of IGT vendors on the business from various security threat vectors and monitors the overall cyber security health of IGT’s critical vendors. Information security monitoring of vendors is managed through GIS, in collaboration with the Company’s procurement team.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of International Game Technology PLC

Opinions on the Financial Statements and Internal Control over Financial Reporting

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of International Game Technology PLC and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the related consolidated statements of operations, of comprehensive income, of shareholders' equity and of cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2024, including the related notes (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”). We also have audited the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2024 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the COSO.

Basis for Opinions

The Company's management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting appearing under Item 15. Our responsibility is to express opinions on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and on the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud, and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects.

Our audits of the consolidated financial statements included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.

Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

F-2
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Critical Audit Matters

The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (i) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (ii) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.

Revenue Recognition – Identifying and Evaluating Contractual Terms and Conditions

As described in Notes 2 and 4 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company generated service and product revenues of $2,363 million and $149 million, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2024. The Company often enters into contracts with customers that consist of a combination of services and products that are accounted for as one or more distinct performance obligations. As disclosed by management, judgment is applied in identifying and evaluating the contractual terms and conditions that impact the identification of performance obligations and the pattern of revenue recognition.

The principal considerations for our determination that performing procedures relating to revenue recognition, specifically identifying and evaluating contractual terms and conditions, is a critical audit matter are the significant judgment by management in identifying and evaluating contractual terms and conditions that impact the identification of performance obligations and the pattern of revenue recognition, which in turn led to a high degree of auditor judgment, subjectivity, and effort in performing procedures to evaluate whether terms and conditions in contracts were appropriately identified and evaluated by management.

Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements. These procedures included testing the effectiveness of controls relating to revenue recognition, including controls related to the identification and evaluation of contractual terms and conditions impacting the identification of performance obligations and the pattern of revenue recognition. These procedures also included, among others, (i) evaluating and testing management’s process for identifying performance obligations and assessing the pattern of revenue recognition, and (ii) evaluating, on a test basis, the completeness and accuracy of the contractual terms and conditions identified in contracts with customers.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

1. Description of Business
International Game Technology PLC (the “Parent”), together with its consolidated subsidiaries (collectively referred to as “IGT PLC,” the “Company,” “we,” “our,” or “us”), is a global leader in gaming delivering entertaining and responsible gaming experiences for players worldwide. Leveraging a wealth of compelling content, continuous investment in innovation, player insights, operational expertise, and leading-edge technology, our solutions deliver unrivalled gaming experiences that engage players and drive growth. We have a well-established local presence and relationships with governments and regulators in more than 100 jurisdictions around the world and create value by adhering to the highest standards of service, integrity, and responsibility.
On February 28, 2024, the Parent entered into definitive agreements (the “February 2024 Agreements”) with Everi Holdings Inc. (“Everi”), pursuant to which the Parent planned to separate its Gaming & Digital businesses (“IGT Gaming”) by way of a taxable spin-off to the Parent’s shareholders and then immediately combine such businesses with Everi. The transaction contemplated by the February 2024 Agreements was expected to close in late 2024 or early 2025.
On July 26, 2024, the Parent and Everi entered into definitive agreements (the “Transaction Agreements”) whereby IGT Gaming and Everi will be simultaneously acquired by a newly formed holding company (‘the Combined Company”) owned by the Apollo Funds in an all-cash transaction (the “Proposed Transaction”). In connection with the entry into the Transaction Agreements, the February 2024 Agreements were terminated.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Preparation

Our Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The Consolidated Financial Statements are stated in millions of United States (“U.S.”) dollars, except per share data or unless otherwise indicated, and are computed based on the amounts in thousands. Certain amounts in columns and rows within tables may not foot due to rounding. Percentages and earnings per share amounts presented are calculated from the underlying unrounded amounts.

We have reflected the financial results of IGT Gaming as discontinued operations in our consolidated statements of operations and reflected the assets and liabilities of IGT Gaming as held for sale in our consolidated balance sheets, for all periods presented. Retrospective reclassifications have been made to prior period financial statements and disclosures to present IGT Gaming as discontinued operations (see Note 3. Discontinued Operations and Assets Held for Sale) . Unless otherwise noted, amounts and disclosures included herein relate to our continuing operations.

Change in Segment Reporting
Prior to the three months ended March 31, 2024, we operated as three operating segments: Global Lottery, Global Gaming, and PlayDigital. During the first quarter of 2024, our chief operating decision maker, who is also our Chief Executive Officer, determined to change the information that he regularly reviews for purposes of allocating resources and assessing financial performance, prompting a change in our operating segments and reporting units. As a result, beginning in the first quarter of 2024, we combined the activities that were previously included within our Global Gaming and PlayDigital segments into one operating segment, named Gaming & Digital. The change in reporting structure did not change the composition of our reporting units, as we simply combined two reporting units into one , therefore we were not required to reallocate goodwill to the reporting units. No changes were made to our Global Lottery segment.
In the third quarter of 2024, as a result of entering into the Transaction Agreements as discussed in Note 3. Discontinued Operations and Assets Held for Sale , the former Gaming & Digital segment, which is fully included in IGT Gaming, has been classified as discontinued operations. Our chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) manages the continuing operations as a single segment for the purposes of assessing performance and making operating decisions. All significant operating decisions are based upon an analysis of the continuing business as one operating segment, which is the same as its reporting segment. All required segment information can be found in these consolidated financial statements.
F-10
Assets and Liabilities Held for Sale
We classify a group of assets and liabilities (disposal group) to be sold in a single or concurrent transactions as held for sale in the period in which all of the following criteria are met: (a) management, having the authority to approve the action, commits to a plan to sell the disposal group; (b) the disposal group is available for immediate sale in its present condition subject to terms customary for sales of such disposal groups; (c) an active program to locate a buyer and other actions required to complete the plan to sell the disposal group have been initiated; (d) the sale of the disposal group is probable, and transfer of the disposal group is expected to qualify for recognition as a completed sale within one year; (e) the disposal group is being actively marketed for sale at a price that is reasonable in relation to its current fair value; and (f) actions required to complete the plan indicate that it is unlikely that significant changes to the plan will be made or that the plan will be withdrawn.
We initially measure a disposal group that is classified as held for sale at the lower of its carrying value or fair value less any costs to sell. Any loss resulting from this measurement is recognized in the period in which the held for sale criteria are met. Conversely, gains are not recognized on the sale of a disposal group until the date of sale. We assess the fair value of a disposal group, less any costs to sell, in each reporting period it remains classified as held for sale and report any subsequent changes as an adjustment to the carrying value of the disposal group, as long as the new carrying value does not exceed the carrying value of the disposal group at the time it was initially classified as held for sale.

Upon determining that a disposal group meets the criteria to be classified as held for sale, we report the assets and liabilities of the disposal group, if material, in the line items assets held for sale and liabilities held for sale in the consolidated balance sheet in each period presented.

Principles of Consolidation
The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Parent, our majority-owned or controlled subsidiaries, and any variable interest entities in which we are the primary beneficiary. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Earnings or losses attributable to non-controlling interests in a subsidiary are included in net income in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Investments in which we have the ability to exercise significant influence, but do not control, and with respect to which we are not the primary beneficiary, are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. Equity investments in which we have no ability to exercise significant influence that do not have a readily determinable fair value and do not have a Net Asset Value per share are measured at cost, less impairment, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes. Equity method investments and equity investments in which we have no ability to exercise significant influence are included within other non-current assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of our Consolidated Financial Statements requires us to make estimates, judgments, and assumptions which affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, equity, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent liabilities. We evaluate our estimates, judgments, and methodologies on an ongoing basis. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets, liabilities, and equity, and the amount of revenues and expenses. Accordingly, actual results and outcomes could differ from those estimates.

New Accounting Standards - Recently Adopted

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures (“ASU 2023-07”). The amendments create additional disclosure requirements with respect to segment financial information. In addition to disclosing the specific segment expenses already required by ASC 280, reporting entities are required to disclose significant segment expense categories and amounts that are regularly provided to the CODM. The name of the individual or group serving as the CODM must be disclosed in addition to how the CODM uses each reported segment measure of profit or loss to assess performance and allocate resources. Nearly all numerical information must be reported during interim periods. We adopted ASU 2023-07 as of December 31, 2024 and applied the amendments retrospectively. The adoption did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements or notes therein.

F-11
New Accounting Standards - Not Yet Adopted

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures . The amendments create additional disclosure requirements with respect to income tax information. Entities must disclose certain categories in the income tax rate reconciliation of the effective and statutory tax rates along with explanations for reconciling items that are not otherwise evident. The disclosures also require disaggregation of income taxes paid by federal (national), state, or foreign as well as by individual jurisdiction. Additionally, the amendments codify certain disclosures related to income (loss) before provision for income taxes and provision for income taxes that had been required by the SEC’s Regulation S-X. The amendments remove disclosure requirements related to potential unrecognized tax benefit changes in the next twelve months. ASU 2023-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, and early adoption is permitted. We expect to adopt ASU 2023-09 upon the effective date and expect to apply the amendments prospectively.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosure (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses . The amendment requires additional disclosure, in tabular format, about specific types of expenses included within the expense captions presented on the face of the income statement, including amounts for: (a) purchases of inventory, (b) employee compensation, (c) depreciation, (d) intangible asset amortization, and (e) certain expenses that are already required to be disclosed under current GAAP. In addition, the amendment requires a qualitative description for the amounts remaining in relevant expense captions that are not separately disaggregated quantitatively and disclosure of total selling expenses. ASU 2024-03 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. We expect to adopt ASU 2024-03 upon the effective date and expect to apply the amendment prospectively.

There are no additional new accounting standards not yet adopted for the year ended December 31, 2024 with a significant effect on the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Revenue

We account for a contract with a customer when: we have written approval; the parties are committed to perform their respective obligations; the rights of the parties, including payment terms, are identified; the contract has commercial substance; and collection of consideration is probable.

We report revenue net of any revenue-based taxes assessed by governmental authorities that are imposed on and concurrent with specific revenue-producing transactions.

We generally expense incremental costs of obtaining a contract (e.g., sales commissions) when incurred because the amount is immaterial. These costs are recorded within selling, general and administrative expenses in our Consolidated Statements of Operations. For certain of our long-term contracts, recoverable costs are capitalized and amortized on a straight-line basis over the expected customer relationship period.

In determining the transaction price, we do not account for significant financing components if the period between when we transfer the promised service or product to the customer and when the customer pays for that service or product will be one year or less.

We do not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for (i) contracts with an original expected length of one year or less, (ii) performance obligations for which we recognize variable revenue at the amount that we have the right to invoice for services performed, (iii) contracts for which variable consideration is accounted for in accordance with sales-based or usage-based royalty guidance, and (iv) wholly unperformed contracts.

Additional information on revenue recognition is included in Note 4.- Revenue Recognition.

Significant Judgments and Estimates

Revenue recognition is impacted by our ability to determine when a contract is probable of collection and to estimate variable consideration, including, for example, rebates, volume discounts, service-level penalties, and performance bonuses. We consider various factors when making these judgments, including a review of specific transactions, historical experience and market and economic conditions. Evaluations are conducted each quarter to assess the adequacy of the estimates.

F-12
Our contracts with customers often include promises to transfer multiple products and services to a customer. Specifically, complex arrangements with nonstandard terms and conditions may require significant contract interpretation to determine the appropriate accounting, including whether the promised products and services specified in the arrangement are distinct performance obligations. Contracts may consist of a combination of products and services delivered at or over different time periods. We apply judgment in identifying and evaluating the contractual terms and conditions that impact the identification of performance obligations and the pattern of revenue recognition.

Judgment is required to determine the standalone selling price (“SSP”) for each distinct performance obligation. The SSP is the price at which we would sell a promised product or service separately to a customer. In some instances, we are able to establish SSP based on the observable prices of services or products sold separately in comparable circumstances to a similar customer. We typically establish an SSP range for our products and services that are reassessed on a periodic basis or when facts and circumstances change. In other instances, we may not be able to establish an SSP range based on observable prices, and we estimate the SSP by considering multiple factors including, but not limited to, overall market conditions, including geographic or regional specific factors, competitive positioning, competitor actions, internal costs, profit objectives, and pricing practices.

Determining whether we are acting as a principal or an agent for subcontractor services or third-party vendor services requires judgment. In certain arrangements, revenue from sales of third-party vendor products or services are recorded net of costs when we are acting as an agent between the customer and the vendor, and gross when we are the principal for the transaction. To determine whether we are an agent or principal, we consider whether we obtain control of the services or products before they are transferred to the customer. In making this evaluation, several factors are considered, most notably whether we have primary responsibility for fulfillment to the customer, as well as inventory risk and pricing discretion.

Contract Costs

Certain eligible, non-recurring costs incurred in the initial phases of service contracts are capitalized and amortized ratably over the expected period of benefit, which includes anticipated contract renewals or extensions. Recurring operating costs in these contracts are recognized as incurred.

Advertising

Advertising costs, which primarily consist of outside marketing services, trade shows and conferences, sponsorships, and other general costs associated with marketing the Company’s products and services, are expensed as incurred. Advertising expense was $ 16 million, $ 14 million, and $ 14 million for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Research and Development Costs

Research and development costs (“R&D”), which principally include employee compensation costs, are expensed as incurred, except certain costs incurred related to capitalized software development as described below in the Capitalized Software Development Costs policy.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents consist primarily of highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less at the date of acquisition, such as bank deposits, money market funds, and interest bearing bank accounts with insignificant interest rate risk.

Restricted Cash and Cash Equivalents

Restricted cash and cash equivalents consist primarily of cash balances related to our Italian Lotto and Italian Scratch & Win contracts deposited into bank accounts, the use of which is restricted based on the contract with our customer.

Allowance for Expected Credit Losses

We maintain an allowance for expected credit losses on receivables resulting from the expected failure or inability of our customers to make required payments. The allowance is regularly reviewed by considering factors such as the creditworthiness of our customers, historical experience, aging of receivables, current market and economic conditions, as well as management’s expectations of future conditions. The allowance is deducted from the amortized cost basis of the receivable to present the net amount expected to be collected.

F-13
We estimate expected credit losses on receivables on a collective (pool) basis when similar risk characteristics exist. Trade and other receivables represent the initial pools which are segregated further by geography, internal risk rating, and aging. The risk of loss is assessed over the contractual life of the receivables and we adjust historical loss rates for current and future conditions based on qualitative considerations. The expected loss rate for each receivable pool is applied to the aggregate receivable balance to determine the allowance requirement. Receivables are written off against the allowance in the period they are determined to be uncollectible.

For amounts due from the majority of our Lottery customers, we have not established an allowance as we have no expectation of loss based on a long history of no credit losses and the explicit guarantee of a sovereign entity.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (applying the first in, first out method) and net realizable value. Allowances are made for defective, obsolete, or excess inventory.

Upfront License Fees
We periodically make long-term investments in contracts with customers and obtain licenses to supply products and services to our customers. As consideration, we pay license fees, which are classified as other non-current assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. We recognize the amortization of the license fees as a reduction of service revenue over the estimated economic life of the license term. This method reflects the pattern in which economic benefits are expected to be realized. The recoverability of each payment is subject to significant estimates about future revenues related to the contracts’ future cash flows. We evaluate these assets for impairment and update amortization rates on an agreement by agreement basis. The assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate their carrying amount may not be recoverable. In periods in which payments are made to the customer, we classify the payment as a cash outflow from operating activities in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

Fair Value Measurements

We account for certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value. Financial assets and liabilities are categorized, based on the inputs to the valuation technique, into a three-level fair value hierarchy. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to the use of observable inputs and the lowest priority to the use of unobservable inputs. When inputs used to measure fair value fall within different levels of the hierarchy, the level within which the fair value measurement is categorized is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement. These levels are as follows:
• Level 1 - inputs are based upon unadjusted quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets
• Level 2 - inputs are based upon quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant inputs are observable in the market or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the instruments
• Level 3 - inputs are unobservable and typically reflect management’s estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability
The carrying values of certain financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and short-term borrowings are recorded at cost, which approximates their fair values, primarily due to their short-term nature.
Derivative Financial Instruments

We use derivative financial instruments for the management of foreign currency risks. We do not enter into derivatives for speculative purposes. Derivatives are recognized as either assets or liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value. All derivatives are recorded gross, except netting of foreign exchange contracts and counterparty netting of interest receivable and payable related to interest rate swaps, as applicable. The accounting for changes in the fair value of a derivative depends on the nature of the hedge and the hedge effectiveness. Cash flows from our derivatives are reported in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows consistent with the classification of the cash flows from the underlying hedged items.

F-14
For derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges, gains and losses are recorded in other comprehensive (loss) income and are subsequently reclassified when the hedged item affects earnings. At that time, the amount is reclassified from other comprehensive (loss) income to the same income statement line as the earnings effect of the hedged item.

Changes in the fair value of derivative instruments not designated as hedges are recorded in foreign exchange (gain) loss, net in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Systems, Equipment and Other Assets Related to Contracts, Net and Property, Plant and Equipment, Net

We have two categories of fixed assets: systems, equipment and other assets related to contracts (“Systems & Equipment”) and property, plant and equipment (“PPE”).

Systems & Equipment are assets that primarily support our operating contracts and FMCs (collectively, the “Contracts”) and are principally composed of lottery assets, including those that are accounted for as operating leases with our customers. PPE are assets we use internally, not associated with Contracts, primarily related to production and assembly, selling, general and administration, and R&D.

Systems & Equipment and PPE are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment loss, if any. Costs incurred for Systems & Equipment and PPE not yet placed into service are classified as construction in progress and are not depreciated until placed in service. Depreciation is recognized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Repair and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred, whereas major improvements that increase asset values and extend useful lives are capitalized.

Systems & Equipment and PPE are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of those assets may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized only if the carrying amount is not recoverable and exceeds its fair value. The carrying amount is not recoverable if it exceeds the sum of the undiscounted forecasted cash flows resulting from the use and eventual disposition of such asset. An impairment loss is measured as the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds its fair value.

Leases

We determine whether a contract is or contains a lease at inception. As a lessee, we recognize right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and lease liabilities on the lease commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. ROU assets also include any upfront lease payments or initial direct costs and are adjusted for lease incentives received.

We consider renewal and termination options, including whether they are reasonably certain to be exercised, in determining the lease term and establishing the ROU assets and lease liabilities. ROU assets and lease liabilities are calculated using our incremental borrowing rate, which is based on the lease currency and length of the lease, unless the implicit rate is determinable.

Most of our lease contracts contain both lease and non-lease components. As a lessee, we combine lease and non-lease components into a single lease component for all classes of underlying assets except certain communication equipment. For certain communication equipment, we allocate the consideration between lease and non-lease components based on relative standalone price. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Variable lease payments are generally expensed as incurred except for certain rent payments that depend on an index, which are included in lease payments using the index rate in effect as of the lease commencement date.

Short-term leases, which are leases with an initial term of 12 months or less with no purchase options that are reasonably certain of exercise, are not recognized on the balance sheet. The rental payments are recognized as lease expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Certain of our long term lottery arrangements include leases for equipment installed at customer locations. As the lessor, we combine lease and non-lease components for all classes of underlying assets in arrangements that involve operating leases. The single combined component is accounted for under ASC 842, Leases , or ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”), depending on which component is the predominant component in the arrangement. If a component cannot be combined, the consideration is allocated between the lease component and the non-lease component based on relative standalone selling price.

F-15
Goodwill

The assets and liabilities of acquired businesses are recorded under the acquisition method of accounting at their estimated fair values at the date of acquisition. Goodwill represents costs in excess of fair values assigned to the underlying identifiable net assets of acquired businesses, and is stated at cost less accumulated impairment losses.

Goodwill is tested for impairment annually, in the fourth quarter, or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount may not be recoverable. The goodwill impairment test compares the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount and an impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value.

Goodwill is tested for impairment at the reporting unit level, which is the same level as our single operating segment.

Capitalized Software Development Costs

Costs incurred during the application development phase of software for services provided to customers are capitalized as internal-use software within Systems, equipment and other assets related to contracts, net and Intangible assets, net - Computer software and amortized over the useful life to cost of services in the Consolidated Balance Sheets and Consolidated Statements of Operations, respectively.

Costs incurred during the application development of software for internal use, and not for use in services provided to customers, are capitalized within Property, plant and equipment, net and amortized over the useful life to selling, general and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Balance Sheets and Consolidated Statements of Operations, respectively.

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets, which include indefinite-lived and definite-lived intangible assets, are stated at cost, less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses.

Indefinite-lived intangible assets are composed of trademarks for which there is no foreseeable limit of the period over which they are expected to generate net cash inflows. Definite-lived intangible assets, which are primarily composed of customer relationships, computer software, developed technologies, and licenses, are capitalized and amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. Estimated useful lives are determined considering the period the assets are expected to contribute to future cash flows. Amortization of intangibles is included in cost of services, cost of product sales, or selling, general and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Operations depending on the use and nature of the asset.

Income Taxes

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts using the enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Tax credits are generally recognized as reductions of income tax provisions in the year in which the credits arise. The measurement of deferred tax assets is reduced by a valuation allowance if, based upon available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The effect of a change in income tax rates is recognized as income or expense in the period that includes the enacted or substantively enacted date.

Accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in the Consolidated Financial Statements is in accordance with accounting authoritative guidance, which prescribes a two-step process to determine the amount of tax benefit to be recognized. First, the tax position must be evaluated to determine the likelihood that it will be sustained upon external examination. If the tax position is deemed “more likely than not” to be sustained, the tax position is then assessed to determine the amount of the benefit to recognize in the Consolidated Financial Statements. The amount of the benefit that may be recognized is the largest amount that has a greater than 50 percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement.

We recognize interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in provision for income taxes in the consolidated statement of operations. Accrued interest and penalties are included within other non-current liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

We use the period cost method for global intangible low-taxed income (“GILTI”) provisions and therefore have not recorded deferred taxes for basis differences expected to reverse in future periods.
F-16

A provision for foreign withholding taxes has not been recorded on undistributed profits of the company’s subsidiaries that are determined to be indefinitely reinvested. If management intentions change in the future, there may be a significant impact on the provision for income taxes in the period the change occurs.

Process for Disclosure and Recording of Liabilities Related to Legal Proceedings

Many lawsuits and claims involve highly complex legal and related issues, including issues relating to causation, evidence, and alleged actual damages, all of which are otherwise subject to substantial uncertainties. Assessments of lawsuits and claims can involve a series of complex judgments about future events and can rely heavily on estimates and assumptions. When making determinations about recording liabilities related to legal proceedings, the Company complies with the requirements of ASC 450, Contingencies , and related guidance, and records liabilities in those instances where it can reasonably estimate the amount of the loss and when the loss is probable. Where the reasonable estimate of the probable loss is a range, the Company records as an accrual in its financial statements the most likely estimate of the loss, or the low end of the range if there is no one best estimate. The Company either discloses the amount of a possible loss or range of loss in excess of established accruals if estimable, or states that such an estimate cannot be made. The Company discloses significant legal proceedings even where liability is not probable or the amount of the liability is not estimable, or both, if the Company believes there is at least a reasonable possibility that a loss may be incurred. All legal costs are expensed as incurred.

Because legal proceedings are subject to inherent uncertainties, and unfavorable rulings or developments could occur, there can be no certainty that the Company may not ultimately incur charges in excess of presently recorded liabilities. Many of the matters described are at preliminary stages or seek an indeterminate amount of damages. It is not uncommon for claims to be resolved over many years. A future adverse ruling, settlement, unfavorable development, or increase in accruals for one or more of these matters could result in future charges that could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations or cash flows in the period in which they are recorded. Based on experience and developments, the Company reexamines its estimates of probable liabilities and associated expenses and receivables each quarterly period, and whether it is able to estimate a liability previously determined to be not estimable and/or not probable. Where appropriate, the Company makes additions to or adjustments of its estimated liabilities. As a result, the current estimates of the potential impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the legal proceedings and claims pending against the Company could change in the future.

Treasury Stock

We account for treasury stock acquisitions using the cost method. We account for the retirement of treasury stock by deducting its par value from common stock and reflecting any excess of cost over par value as a deduction from additional paid-in capital in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Foreign Currency Translation and Foreign Currency Transactions

The financial statements of subsidiaries with functional currencies other than the U.S. dollar are translated into U.S. dollars, with the resulting translation adjustments recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”) within shareholders’ equity. Assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars using the exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date, while income and expense items are translated using the average exchange rates during the period.

Subsidiaries with monetary assets and liabilities denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of the subsidiary are subject to remeasurement, the impact of which is recorded in foreign exchange (gain) loss, net in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-based compensation expense represents the cost related to stock-based awards granted to directors and employees. Stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date or modification date, based on the estimated fair value of the award and recognized as expense, net of estimated forfeitures, over the vesting periods. For awards subject to cliff vesting, compensation cost is recognized by way of a straight-line method over the award’s expected vesting period. For awards subject to graded vesting, compensation cost is recognized by way of an accelerated attribution method over the entire awards’ expected vesting periods.

IGT Gaming Discontinued Operations and Assets Held for Sale

On July 26, 2024, the Parent and Everi entered into the Transaction Agreements whereby IGT Gaming and Everi will be simultaneously acquired in the Proposed Transaction. Under the terms of the Transaction Agreements, the Parent will receive approximately $ 4.05 billion in cash, subject to customary transaction adjustments in accordance with the Transaction Agreements, for IGT Gaming. Following the closing of the Proposed Transaction, the Combined Company will be privately owned and the Parent’s shareholders will have no further equity ownership of IGT Gaming, except for De Agostini’s investment referenced under “Item 4. Information on the Company.” The Proposed Transaction, which is expected to be completed by the end of the third quarter of 2025, is subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions, including, among others: (i) final approval by Everi’s stockholders, which was received on November 14, 2024; (ii) clearance of U.S. anti-trust review, with the waiting period having expired on November 20, 2024; and (iii) receipt of regulatory approvals from gaming regulators in the jurisdictions where the Combined Company will operate.

The criteria for reporting the IGT Gaming disposal group as held for sale were met upon entering into the Transaction Agreements. The Proposed Transaction represents a strategic shift that will have a major effect on the Company’s operations and financial results and accordingly, IGT Gaming is presented in the accompanying consolidated financial statements as a discontinued operation for all periods presented.

Sources of Revenue

Service Revenue

Service revenue is derived from the following sources:

• Operating and facilities management contracts, net; and
• Systems, software, and other

Operating and facilities management contracts, net

Our revenue from operating contracts is derived primarily from long-term exclusive operating licenses in Italy. Under operating contracts, we manage all the activities along the lottery value chain including creating games, determining payouts, collecting wagers through our network, paying out prizes, managing all accounting and other back-office functions, running advertising and promotions, operating data transmission networks and processing centers, training staff, providing retailers with assistance, supplying materials including play slips, tickets, and receipts, and marketing and point-of-sale materials for the game. In most cases, the arrangement is accounted for as a single performance obligation composed of a series of distinct services that are substantially the same and have the same pattern of transfer (i.e., distinct days of service).

Under operating contracts, we typically satisfy the performance obligation and recognize revenue over time because the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided as we perform the services. The amount of consideration to which we are typically entitled is variable based on a percentage of sales. Revenue is typically recognized in the amount that we have the right to invoice the customer as this corresponds directly with the value to the customer of our performance completed to date. In arrangements where we are performing services on behalf of the government and the government is considered our customer, revenue is recognized net of prize payments, taxes, retailer commissions, and remittances to state authorities. Under operating contracts, we are generally required to pay an upfront license fee. Refer to the Upfront License Fees policy above for further details.

Our revenue from FMCs is generated by designing, installing, and operating the lottery system and retail terminal network. Under a typical FMC, we maintain ownership of the technology and equipment, and we are responsible for capital investments throughout the duration of the contract, although investments are generally concentrated during the early years, while the lottery authority maintains, in most instances, responsibility for the overall lottery operations. FMCs typically include a wide range of services to lottery customers related to the technology, equipment, and facilities such as hosting, maintenance, marketing, and
F-20
other support services. We generally provide our lottery customers retailer terminal and communication network equipment through operating leases. In most cases, the arrangement is accounted for as a single performance obligation composed of a series of distinct services that are substantially the same and that have the same pattern of transfer. Under FMCs, we typically satisfy the performance obligation and recognize revenue over time because the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided as we perform the services. The amount of transaction price to which we are entitled is typically variable based on a percentage of the sales of all lottery tickets, including draw-based or instant ticket games, although under certain of our agreements, we may receive fixed fees for certain goods or services. Revenue is typically recognized in the amount that we have the right to invoice the customer, as this corresponds directly with the value to the customer of our completed performance.

Systems, software, and other

Our lottery contracts generally include other services, including telephone support, software maintenance, hardware maintenance, and the right to receive unspecified upgrades or enhancements on a when-and-if-available basis, and other professional services including software development. Fees earned for other services are generally recognized as service revenue in the period the service is performed (i.e., over the support period).

We also develop technology to enable lotteries to offer commercial services over their existing lottery infrastructure or over standalone networks separate from the lottery. Leveraging our distribution network and secure transaction processing, we offer high-volume processing of commercial transactions including prepaid cellular telephone recharges, bill payments, e-vouchers and retail-based programs, electronic tax payments, stamp duty services, prepaid card recharges, and money transfers. These services are primarily offered outside of North America. In most cases, these arrangements are considered to be short in duration. The amount of transaction price that we are typically entitled to is variable based on the number of transactions processed. Revenue is typically recognized in the amount that we have the right to invoice the customer as this corresponds directly with the value to the customer of our completed performance.

Product Sales

Product sales are derived from lottery products :

Product sales revenue primarily includes the sale of lottery equipment, lottery systems, and printed products.

Our revenue from the sale or sales-type lease of lottery systems and equipment typically includes multiple performance obligations, where we assemble, sell, deliver, and install turnkey lottery systems or lottery equipment (inclusive of point-of-sale terminals, if applicable) or deliver equipment and license the computer software for a fixed price. The lottery authority maintains, in most instances, responsibility for lottery operations. Our credit terms are predominantly short-term in nature. Revenue from the sale of lottery systems and equipment is recognized based upon the contractual terms of each arrangement. These arrangements generally include customer acceptance provisions and general rights to terminate the contract if we are in breach of the contract. In some arrangements, the performance obligation is satisfied over time if the customer controls the asset as it is created (i.e., when the asset is built at the customer site) or if our performance does not create an asset with an alternative use and we have an enforceable right to payment plus a reasonable profit for performance completed to date. If revenue is not recognized over time, it is generally recognized upon transfer of physical possession of the goods or the satisfaction of customer acceptance provisions. If the transaction includes multiple performance obligations, it is accounted for under arrangements with multiple performance obligations, discussed below.

Our other lottery product sales are primarily derived from the production and sales of instant tickets and related services under instant ticket services contracts. Instant ticket services contracts are priced based on a percentage of ticket sales revenue or on a price per unit basis. In these arrangements, the performance obligation is generally satisfied at a point in time (i.e., upon transfer of control of the instant tickets to the customer) based on the contractual terms of each arrangement.

Contract Balances

Contract assets reflect revenue recognized in advance of invoicing our customer. The amount of contract assets, which is included within Other current assets and Other non-current assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets, was $ 51 million and $ 70 million at December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.
F-21

Contract liabilities relate to payments received in advance of the satisfaction of performance under the contract. The amount of contract liabilities, which is included within Other current liabilities and Other non-current liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets, was $ 61 million and $ 66 million at December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.

The amount of revenue recognized during the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022 that was included in the contract liabilities balance at the beginning of each period was $ 25 million, $ 28 million, and $ 51 million, respectively .

Transaction Price Allocated to Remaining Performance Obligations

At December 31, 2024, the transaction price allocated to unsatisfied performance obligations for contracts expected to be greater than one year, or performance obligations for which we do not have a right to consideration from the customer in the amount that corresponds to the value to the customer for our performance completed to date, variable consideration which is not accounted for in accordance with the sales-based or usage-based royalties guidance, or contracts which are not wholly unperformed, is approximately $ 899 million. Of this amount, we expect to recognize as revenue approximately 25 % within the next 12 months, approximately 33 % between 13 and 36 months, approximately 21 % between 37 and 60 months, and the remaining balance through July 9, 2036.

5. Trade and Other Receivables, net

Trade and other receivables are recorded at amortized cost, net of allowance for credit losses, and represent a contractual right to receive money on demand or on fixed or determinable dates that are typically short-term with payment due within 90 days or less.

We enter into various factoring agreements with third-party financial institutions to sell certain of our trade receivables. We factored trade receivables of $ 403 million and $ 373 million during the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, under these factoring arrangements. The cash received from these arrangements is reflected as net cash provided by operating activities in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. In certain of these factoring arrangements, for ease of administration, we will collect customer payments related to the factored gross receivables, including our trade receivables, which we then remit to the financial institutions. At December 31, 2024 and 2023, we had $ 152 million and $ 133 million, respectively, that was collected on behalf of the financial institutions and recorded as other current liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The net cash flows relating to these collections are reported as financing activities in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

12. Restructuring

OPtiMa 3.0

During the third quarter of 2024, we initiated a restructuring plan (“OPtiMa 3.0”) to realign and optimize our cost structure due to ending of the TSA period after the two Italian dispositions (Italian gaming B2C businesses & Italian commercial services business) and the Proposed Transaction for the sale of IGT Gaming.

The plan is focused on realigning and optimizing our general and administrative activities. Actions under the plan include the reduction of approximately 3 % of our workforce, the optimization of our real estate footprint given our hybrid workforce and headcount reductions, and the reduction of other indirect costs previously incurred due to a larger business portfolio. Employee actions commenced in the third quarter of 2024 and are expected to be completed within the next 12 months. During the year ended December 31, 2024 we incurred $ 38 million in severance and related employee costs under the plan.

2021 Italian Workforce Redundancies

In connection with the sale of our Italian B2C businesses, management agreed to provide to the buyer information technology and back-office services for a period of one to three years via a TSA. As certain of these services were concluding, during the fourth quarter of 2021 management performed a detailed review of redundant roles and created a plan to eliminate certain redundancies as TSA services lapsed, by commencing voluntary early retirement programs. Since the plan’s inception, we incurred approximately $ 32 million in severance and related employee costs associated with these early retirement programs through December 31, 2024, as management and the identified employees reached a mutual understanding of the separation benefits. Cash payments associated with these programs are expected to be made through 2030. During the year ended December 31, 2024, severance and related employee costs under the plan were nominal. During the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 we incurred $ 13 million and $ 7 million, respectively, of severance and related employee costs under the plan.

13. Goodwill

The Company completed the annual impairment testing in the fourth quarter, where we assessed our single reporting unit using Step 0. Based on the qualitative analysis completed, we determined that it was more likely than not that the fair value exceeds the carrying value and as such, no adjustment to the carrying value of goodwill was necessary and the Step 1 quantitative goodwill impairment analysis was not necessary.

Changes in the carrying amount of goodwill consist of the following:

Euro Term Loan Facilities

The Parent and certain of its subsidiaries are parties to an Amended and Restated Senior Facilities Agreement dated July 21, 2021, as amended (the “TLF Agreement”), which provides for two € 500 million senior secured term loan facilities, one to the Parent and one to IGT Lottery Holdings B.V., maturing on January 25, 2027 (the “Euro Term Loan Facilities”). The borrowers must repay the Euro Term Loan Facilities in installments, as detailed below:
Due Date Amount
(€ in millions)
January 25, 2025 200
January 25, 2026 200
January 25, 2027 400

In December 2023, the Parent prepaid € 200 million of the Euro Term Loan Facilities which was applied in full to the repayment installment due January 25, 2024.

Interest on the Euro Term Loan Facilities is payable between one and six months in arrears at rates equal to the applicable EURIBOR plus a margin based on (i) our public debt ratings by Fitch, Moody’s, and S&P and (ii) our ESG rating by Institutional Shareholder Services Inc.

The Euro Term Loan Facilities are guaranteed by the Parent and certain of its subsidiaries and are secured by ownership interests in certain subsidiaries of the Parent, certain intercompany loans with principal balances in excess of $ 10 million and certain accounts receivable. Upon the occurrence of certain events, the borrowers may be required to prepay the Euro Term Loan Facilities in full. The TLF Agreement limits the aggregate amount that the Parent can pay with respect to dividends and repurchases of ordinary shares in each year to $ 400 million if any two of our public debt ratings by Fitch, Moody’s, and S&P are lower than Ba1/BB+ and $ 550 million if any two of our public debt ratings by Fitch, Moody’s, and S&P are equal to or higher than Ba1/BB+, and provides that such limit is eliminated if any two of our public debt ratings by Moody’s, S&P, and Fitch are equal to or higher than Baa3/BBB-. The TLF Agreement also contains customary covenants (including maintaining a minimum ratio of EBITDA to net interest costs and maximum ratio of total net debt to EBITDA) and events of default. At December 31, 2024, the Parent was in compliance with the covenants.

In November 2023, the lenders under the TLF Agreement agreed that each principal prepayment by a borrower be applied to the next repayment installments due from such borrower in order of maturity instead of being applied to all repayment installments due from such borrower pro rata.

Upon the occurrence of certain events, the borrowers may be required to repay the Revolving Credit Facilities and the lenders may have the right to cancel their commitments. The RCF Agreement limits the aggregate amount that the Parent can pay with respect to dividends and repurchases of ordinary shares in each year to $ 400 million if any two of our public debt ratings by Fitch, Moody’s, and S&P are lower than Ba1/BB+ and $ 550 million if any two of our public debt ratings by Fitch, Moody’s, and S&P are equal to or higher than Ba1/BB+, and provides that such limit is eliminated if any two of our public debt ratings by Fitch, Moody’s, and S&P are equal to or higher than Baa3/BBB-. The RCF Agreement also contains customary covenants (including maintaining a minimum ratio of EBITDA to net interest costs and a maximum ratio of total net debt to EBITDA) and events of default. At December 31, 2024, the borrowers were in compliance with the covenants.

TLF Agreement and RCF Agreement Amendments

In November 2023 and February 2024, the Parent entered into amendments to the TLF Agreement and RCF Agreement to permit the divestiture of IGT Gaming via a sale, spin-off, or spin-off with a merger. Effective immediately upon the divestiture’s closing, the amendments:

• Reduce the Revolving Credit Facility A commitment from $ 820 million to $ 650 million;
• Reduce the Revolving Credit Facility B commitment from € 1 billion to € 800 million;
• Mandate the first $ 2 billion of net proceeds be used to pay down debt within six months of the closing date, which shall include the full repayment of the Parent’s Euro Term Loan facility within one month of the closing date (this excludes the Euro Term Loan facility principal held by IGT Lottery Holdings B.V.);
• Permit shareholder distributions and/or share buybacks to the extent that the net proceeds exceed $ 2 billion; and
• Make certain adjustments to the debt covenants, such as the subsidiaries guaranteeing the Facilities.

Other Credit Facilities
The Parent and certain of its subsidiaries may borrow under senior unsecured uncommitted demand credit facilities made available by several financial institutions. At December 31, 2024, there were no short-term borrowings under these facilities. There were $ 16 million of short-term borrowings with an effective interest rate of 6.77 % at December 31, 2023.

Letters of Credit
The Parent and certain of its subsidiaries obtain letters of credit under the Revolving Credit Facilities and under senior unsecured uncommitted demand credit facilities. The letters of credit secure various obligations, including obligations arising under customer contracts and real estate leases. The following table summarizes the letters of credit outstanding at December 31, 2024 and 2023 and the weighted-average annual cost of such letters of credit:

The Parent is a tax resident in the United Kingdom (the “U.K.”). A reconciliation of the provision for income taxes, from the amount computed by applying the U.K. statutory main corporation tax rates enacted in each of the Parent’s calendar year reporting periods (2023 tax rate is based on a weighted average rate of the U.K. statutory tax rate enacted on April 1, 2023) to income from continuing operations before provision for income taxes is as follows:

Net Operating Loss Carryforwards

We have a $ 856 million gross tax loss carryforward, of which $ 692 million relates to the U.K and $ 164 million relates to other tax jurisdictions. Carryforwards in certain tax jurisdictions begin to expire in 2025 while others have an unlimited carryforward period. A valuation allowance has been provided on $ 725 million of the gross net operating loss carryforwards. Portions of the tax loss carryforwards are subject to annual limitations in most of our significant tax jurisdictions, including the U.K. In addition, as of December 31, 2024, we had U.S. state tax net operating loss carryforwards, resulting in a deferred tax asset (net of U.S. federal tax benefit) of approximately $ 0.3 million. U.S. state tax net operating loss carryforwards in certain tax jurisdictions begin to expire in 2028, while others have an unlimited carryforward period.

Valuation Allowance

A reconciliation of the valuation allowance is as follows:
December 31,

Net charges to expense 19 60 32
Held-for-sale reclassification ( 8 ) ( 17 ) —
Balance at end of year 237 225 181

The valuation allowance primarily relates to net operating losses that are more likely than not to be realized. In assessing the need for a valuation allowance, we considered both positive and negative evidence for each jurisdiction including past operating results, estimates of future taxable income, and the feasibility of tax planning strategies. When we change our determination as to the amount of deferred tax assets that can be realized, the valuation allowance is adjusted with a corresponding impact to the provision for income taxes in the period in which such determination is made.

At December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022, $ 17 million, $ 10 million, and $ 24 million, respectively, of the unrecognized tax benefits, if recognized, would affect our effective tax rates.

We recognize interest and penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense. The charges were nominal for 2024, 2023, and 2022. The gross balance of accrued interest and penalties was $ 27 million and $ 30 million at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

We file income tax returns in various jurisdictions of which the U.K., U.S., and Italy represent the major tax jurisdictions. As of December 31, 2024, we are subject to income tax audits in various tax jurisdictions globally, most significantly in the U.S. and Mexico.
F-36

Mexico Tax Audit

Based on a 2006 tax examination, the Company’s Mexican subsidiary, GTECH Mexico S.A. de C.V., was issued an income tax assessment of approximately Mexican peso (“MXN”) 425 million. The assessment relates to the denial of a deduction for cost of goods sold and the taxation of intercompany loan proceeds. The Company has unsuccessfully contested the two issues in the Mexican court system receiving unfavorable decisions by the Mexican Supreme Court in June 2017 and October 2019, respectively. As of December 31, 2024, based on the unfavorable decisions received, the Company has recorded a liability of MXN 580 million (approximately $ 28 million), inclusive of additional interest, penalties, and inflationary adjustments, which is reported within other non-current liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Italy Tax Audits

Since February 2020, the Company’s Italian corporate income tax returns for the calendar years ended December 31, 2015 through December 31, 2019 were under examination. In October 2020, the Italian Tax Authorities issued a final audit report for calendar year 2015. The Company filed a defense memorandum with the Italian Tax Authorities in May 2021 rejecting all findings. In December 2021, the Company received a tax assessment notice for € 15 million relating to calendar year 2015. The Company filed an appeal with the Italian Tax Court in May 2022 relating to the 2015 tax assessment. On March 21, 2023, the Company received a tax assessment notice for € 27 million relating to calendar year 2016. On September 7, 2023, the Company signed a Settlement Agreement with the Italian Tax Authorities pursuant to which the Company agreed to settle the 2015 and 2016 tax assessments for € 10 million. Additionally, the Company agreed to settle the 2015 and 2016 audit findings that were relevant to tax years 2017-2022 for € 13 million. The total impact, net of amounts previously reserved, was $ 14 million.

Pillar Two Global Minimum Tax Framework - Legislative Upd ates

In December 2021, the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (“OECD”) enacted model rules for a new global minimum tax framework (“Pillar Two”). Many non-U.S. tax jurisdictions, including the European Union, have committed to adopting Pillar Two, which establishes a global minimum tax of 15% and is intended to be effective for tax years beginning in 2024. The OECD has since issued administrative guidance providing transition and safe harbor rules around the implementation of the Pillar Two global minimum tax. Based on the Company’s current analysis of the Pillar Two provisions, these tax law changes do not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements for calendar year 2024.

18. Commitments and Contingencies

Commitments

Unconditional purchase obligations

As of December 31, 2024, we had unconditional purchase obligations of approximately $ 42 million, primarily related to contracts with vendors for third-party equipment and data service fees. Our unconditional purchase obligations include agreements to purchase goods or services that are enforceable and legally binding on the Company and that specify all significant terms, including fixed or minimum quantities to be purchased, price provisions, and the approximate timing of the transaction. Unconditional purchase obligations exclude agreements that are cancellable without penalty and unconditional purchase obligations with a remaining term of one year or less.

Performance and other bonds

Certain contracts require us to provide a surety bond as a guarantee of performance for the benefit of customers and bid and litigation bonds for the benefit of potential customers.

These bonds give beneficiaries the right to obtain payment and/or performance from the issuer of the bond if certain specified events occur. In the case of performance bonds, which generally have a term of one year , such events include our failure to perform our obligations under the applicable contracts. In general, we would only be liable for these guarantees in the event of default in our performance of our obligations under each contract, the probability of which we believe is remote. Accordingly, no liability has been recorded as of December 31, 2024 and 2023 related to these bonds.

F-37
Legal Proceedings

From time to time, the Parent and/or one or more of its subsidiaries are party to legal, regulatory, or administrative proceedings regarding, among other matters, claims by and against us, and injunctions by third parties arising out of the ordinary course of busines s or its other business activities. Licenses are also subject to legal challenges by competitors seeking to annul awards made to the Company. The Parent and/or one or more of its subsidiaries are also, from time to time, subjects of, or parties to, ethics and compliance inquiries and investigations related to the Company’s ongoing operations. At December 31, 2024, provisions for all legal proceedings was $ 4 million. With respect to legal proceedings where we have determined that an incremental loss is reasonably possible but we are unable to determ ine an estimate of that reasonably possible loss in excess of amounts already accrued, no additional amounts have been accrued, given the uncertainties of litigation and the inherent difficulty of predicting the outcome of legal proceedings.

Disposition of Previously Disclosed Matters

Texas Fun 5’s Instant Ticket Game

IGT Global Solutions Corporation (formerly GTECH Corporation) was a party to lawsuits in Texas state court arising out of the Fun 5’s instant ticket game sold by the Texas Lottery Commission (“TLC”) from September 14, 2014 to October 21, 2014. Plaintiffs allege each ticket’s instruction for Game 5 provided a 5x win ( five times the prize box amount) any time the “Money Bag” symbol was revealed in the “5X BOX”. However, TLC awarded a 5x win only when (1) the “Money Bag” symbol was revealed and (2) three symbols in a pattern were revealed.
Steele, James et al. v. GTECH Corp., filed on December 9, 2014 in Travis County (No. D1GN145114). Through intervenor actions, over 1,200 plaintiffs claim damages in excess of $ 600 million, as alleged via discovery. GTECH Corporation’s plea to the jurisdiction for dismissal based on sovereign immunity was denied. GTECH Corporation appealed. The appellate court ordered that plaintiffs’ sole remaining claim should be reconsidered. On April 27, 2018, this and a related matter were appealed to the Texas Supreme Court, which heard arguments on December 3, 2019. On June 12, 2020, the Texas Supreme Court ruled that plaintiffs could proceed with their fraud allegations in the lower court; all other claims were dismissed. On March 26, 2021, October 29, 2021, and February 3, 2022 ( two motions), GTECH Corporation filed motions for summary judgment. One such motion was denied on February 25, 2022, while the other three remain pending. In April 2023, pursuant to court ordered mediation, the Company advanced confidential settlement negotiations regarding this matter, and a tentative settlement was reached subject to certain conditions to be satisfied by plaintiffs. The Court granted the Motion to Appoint Masters in Chancery on July 13, 2023 to oversee and assist the parties with the potential settlement process, and proposed settlement notices were sent to named plaintiffs with a response due within three months. The requisite number of plaintiffs opted in to the settlement and executed a release, and the master certified the results of their work. Approximately 50 plaintiffs remain in the case at this time. To date, the required settlement payments have been made with cash on hand to those plaintiffs who provided an executed agreement prior to certification. As for the remaining plaintiffs who opted out of the settlement or did not respond, litigation will continue in the ordinary course.
We dispute the claims made in each of these cases and continue to defend against these lawsuits.

The Company will continue to monitor its legal proceedings and may adjust its disclosures and accruals in accordance with its Process for Disclosure and Recording of Liabilities Related to Legal Proceedings as described in Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, herein.

19. Shareholders’ Equity
Shares Authorized and Outstanding
The Board may issue ordinary shares of the Parent upon shareholder approval. At the Parent’s 2024 annual general meeting, the shareholders authorized the issuance of up to 134 million additional ordinary shares (of which 67 million can be issued in connection with an offer by way of a rights issue), with a par value of $ 0.10 per share, for a period expiring at the end of the 2025 annual general meeting, or, if sooner, on August 13, 2025, unless previously revoked, varied, or renewed.

Share Repurchase Program

On November 15, 2021, the Parent’s Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program (the “Program”) pursuant to which the Company may repurchase up to $ 300 million of the Parent’s outstanding ordinary shares during a period of four years commencing on November 18, 2021. At the Parent’s 2024 annual general meeting, the Parent’s shareholders granted authority to repurchase, subject to a maximum repurchase price, up to 20 million of the Parent’s ordinary shares. This authority remains valid until November 13, 2025, unless previously revoked, varied, or renewed at the Parent’s 2025 annual general meeting.

The Parent repurchases ordinary shares under the Program at the market price on the trade date and the Parent cancels repurchased ordinary shares or holds them in treasury. If the Parent holds repurchased ordinary shares in treasury, all amounts paid to repurchase such shares have been recorded as treasury stock in our Consolidated Balance Sheets until they are reissued or retired. Under the Program, no shares were purchased in 2024. Repurchases of the Parent’s ordinary shares paid out of distributable reserves reduce the amount of distributable reserves available for the Parent to make distributions to its shareholders, including the payment of dividends which, under English law, may only be paid out of distributable reserves.

Dividends
We declared a $ 0.20 cash dividend per share in all four quarters of 2024, 2023, and 2022.

On February 20, 2025, the Board declared a quarterly cash dividend of $ 0.20 per share. The dividend, of approximately $ 40 million in the aggregate, is payable on March 25, 2025, to shareholders of record at the close of business on March 11, 2025. Future dividends are subject to Board approval.

20. Stock-Based Compensation
Incentive Compensation Awards
With respect to both continuing and discontinued operations, stock-based incentive awards were provided to directors and employees under the terms of our 2015 and 2021 Equity Incentive Plans (collectively, the “Plans”) as administered by the Board. Awards available under the Plans principally include stock options, performance share units, restricted share units or any combination thereof. The maximum number of new shares that may be granted under the Plans is 20 million shares. To the extent any award is forfeited, expires, lapses, or is settled for cash, the award is available for reissue under the Plans. We utilize authorized and unissued shares to satisfy all shares issued under the Plans.
Stock Options
Stock options were awards that allow the employee to purchase shares of our stock at a fixed price. Stock options were granted under the Plans at an exercise price not less than the fair market value of a share on the date of grant. No stock options were granted in 2024, 2023, or 2022.
Stock Awards
Stock awards were principally made in the form of performance share units (“PSUs”) and restricted share units (“RSUs”).

PSUs are stock awards where the number of shares ultimately received by the employee depends on the Company’s performance against specified targets, which may include Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Free Cash Flow, Total Shareholder Return (“TSR”) relative to the Russell Mid Cap Market Index, or share price. PSUs typically vest 50 % over an approximate three-year period and 50 % over an approximate four-year period (i.e. four years to vest both tranches). Dividend equivalents are not paid under the Plans. The fair value of each PSU is determined on the grant date or modification date, based on the Company’s stock price, adjusted for the exclusion of dividend equivalents, and assumes that performance targets will be achieved. Over the performance period, the number of shares of stock that will be issued is adjusted based upon the probability
F-40
of achievement of performance targets. The ultimate number of shares issued and the related compensation cost recognized as expense is based on a comparison of the final performance metrics to the specified targets, if applicable.
RSUs are stock awards that entitle the holder to shares of common stock as the award vests. Dividend equivalents are not paid under the Plans.

Modifications

In connection with the Proposed Transaction, certain PSUs for employees expected to transfer with IGT Gaming were modified. For unvested PSUs granted prior to 2024 and scheduled to vest prior to the expected closing date, the awards were modified to vest at target performance. For the remaining PSUs granted prior to 2024, the awards were modified to vest at target performance and settle in cash, 50% at the Proposed Transaction closing date, and 50% one year following the closing date. The modifications affected approximately 148 employees, which resulted in $ 8 million of incremental compensation cost that is included in discontinued operations for the year ended December 31, 2024.

21. Earnings Per Share
The following table presents the computation of basic and diluted income (loss) per share of common stock:
For the year ended December 31,
($ and shares in millions, except per share amounts)
2024 2023 2022
Numerator:
Net income from continuing operations attributable to IGT PLC 117 116 420
Net income (loss) from discontinued operations attributable to IGT PLC 231 41 ( 145 )
Net income attributable to IGT PLC 348 156 275

Net income from continuing operations attributable to IGT PLC per common share - basic 0.58 0.58 2.08
Net income from continuing operations attributable to IGT PLC per common share - diluted 0.57 0.57 2.07
Net income (loss) from discontinued operations attributable to IGT PLC per common share - basic 1.15 0.20 ( 0.72 )
Net income (loss) from discontinued operations attributable to IGT PLC per common share - diluted 1.14 0.20 ( 0.71 )
Net income attributable to IGT PLC per common share - basic 1.73 0.78 1.36
Net income attributable to IGT PLC per common share - diluted 1.71 0.77 1.35

Certain stock options to purchase common shares were outstanding, but were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share, because the exercise price of the options was greater than the average market price of the common shares for the full year, and therefore, the effect would have been antidilutive.

During years when we are in a net loss position, certain outstanding stock options and unvested restricted stock awards are excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share because including them would have had an antidilutive effect.

For the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022 there were nominal stock options and unvested restricted stock awards shares excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share because including them would have had an antidilutive effect.

22. Variable Interest Entities

We hold ownership interests in and consolidate the following variable interest entities (“VIEs”):
Name of subsidiary % Ownership held by the Company
Lottoitalia S.r.l. (“Lottoitalia”) 61.50 %
Lotterie Nazionali S.r.l. (“LN”) 64.00 %
Northstar New Jersey Lottery Group, LLC (“Northstar NJ”) (1)
76.64 %
Rhode Island VLT Company LLC (“RI VLT”) (2)
60.00 %
(1) Northstar New Jersey Holding Company LLC, of which we are a 71.12 % shareholder, holds the 76.64 % ownership in Northstar NJ.
(2) As disclosed in Note 3. Discontinued Operations and Assets Held for Sale the RI VLT is part of the IGT Gaming disposal group and is reflected in the consolidated financial statements as discontinued operations.

Lottoitalia holds a license to operate the Lotto game in Italy through November 2025. LN holds a license to operate the Scratch & Win instant lottery game in Italy through September 2028. Northstar NJ manages a wide range of the lottery’s day-to-day operations in the State of New Jersey, as well as provides marketing and sales services under a license valid through June 2029. RI VLT manages VLT operations and holds the exclusive technology provider license in the State of Rhode Island through June 2043.

We are the principal operating partner fulfilling the requirements under the licenses held by the VIEs. As such, we have the power to direct the activities that significantly affect the VIEs’ economic performance, along with the right to receive benefits
F-43
or the obligation to absorb losses that could potentially be significant to the VIEs. As a result, we concluded we are the primary beneficiary of the VIEs and they have been consolidated. Accordingly, the balance sheet and operating activity of the VIEs are included in our Consolidated Financial Statements and we adjust the net income in our Consolidated Statements of Operations to exclude the non-controlling interests’ proportionate share of results. We present the proportionate share of non-controlling interests as equity in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The carrying amounts and classification of these VIEs’ assets and liabilities in our Consolidated Balance Sheets at December 31, 2024 and 2023 are as follows:
December 31,
($ in millions) 2024 2023
Current assets 1,240 1,214
Non-current assets 510 755
Total assets 1,750 1,969
Total liabilities 753 731
The balances presented above are net of intercompany balances and transactions that are eliminated in our Consolidated Financial Statements.

Additionally, IGT holds a 50.00 % ownership interest in a consortium, Mineria da Sorte Loteria SPE LTDA (“Brazil Lottery”), formed in June 2023 which holds an exclusive 20 -year license to operate instants and passive lottery in the State of Minas Gerais, Brazil. We determined that the consortium is a VIE, but we are not the primary beneficiary of the VIE. Therefore, as of December 31, 2024 the joint venture was unconsolidated and accounted for under the equity method.

23. Segment Information

The Company operates and manages its continuing operations business as a single segment for the purposes of assessing performance and making operating decisions. We are a pure-play lottery business that derives revenues from providing sales, operations, product development, technology, and support to worldwide traditional lottery and iLottery customers. The chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) is our Chief Executive Officer.

The CODM reviews net income, as reported in the consolidated financial results from continuing operations, when making decisions about allocating resources and evaluating financial performance. The CODM uses net income to evaluate the overall capital allocation strategy in deciding whether to reinvest profits into capital expenditures, or into other parts of the business such as paying down debt, paying dividends, or for acquisitions.

The segment’s accounting policies are the same as those described in Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies. The measure of segment assets is reported on the consolidated balance sheets as total assets.

Revenue from external customers, which is based on the geographical location of our customers, is as follows:

PlayDigital Synthetic Equity Award Program

On March 9, 2022, Enrico Drago, former Chief Executive Officer of the PlayDigital business and immediate family member of Marco Drago, a member of the Board up until May 14, 2024, was granted a synthetic equity award pursuant to the PlayDigital Equity Award Program designed to align the incentives of certain employees of the Company’s PlayDigital business with the growth in the valuation of such business. The synthetic equity award was scheduled to vest in three , four , and five years after the grant date with tranche percentages of 35 %, 25 %, and 40 % and could be settled in equity or cash.

As announced on March 21, 2024, Marco Drago stepped down from his role as a non-executive director of the Board on May 14, 2024. The Board appointed Enrico Drago as a non-executive director effective April 1, 2024 following his resignation from the role of Chief Executive Officer of the PlayDigital business.
F-45

On March 27, 2024, Enrico Drago’s synthetic equity award was modified to change the valuation methodology applicable to the award and to allow for the continued vesting of the award in consideration of his new role and the planned sale or other disposition of the PlayDigital business. At December 31, 2024, $ 0.5 million of estimated unrecognized compensation expense attributable to the synthetic equity award granted to Mr. Drago will be recognized as compensation expense over a weighted average period of 1.8 years.

Unconsolidated Subsidiaries, Partnerships and Joint Ventures

From time to time, we make strategic investments in publicly traded and privately held companies that develop software, hardware, and other technologies or provide services supporting its technologies. We may also purchase from or make sales to these organizations.

Ringmaster provides software development services for our interactive gaming business pursuant to an agreement dated December 7, 2011.

During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company sold 100% of its investment in Connect Ventures One LP which resulted in a gain of $ 2 million and is recorded as income in Other non-operating expense, net in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
