Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

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 that delivers entertaining and responsible gaming experiences for players across all channels and regulated segments, from lotteries and gaming machines to sports betting and digital. We operate and provide an integrated portfolio of innovative gaming technology products and services, including: lottery management services, online and instant lottery systems, gaming systems, instant ticket printing, electronic gaming machines, sports betting, digital gaming, and digital lottery. We have a local presence and relationships with governments and regulators in more than 100 countries around the world.

2.    Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Preparation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and notes of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information. Accordingly, these interim financial statements do not include all of the information and note disclosures required by GAAP for complete financial statements, but reflect all normal recurring adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the interim period results. The year-end condensed balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our 2021 Form 20-F.

Our condensed consolidated financial statements are stated in millions of United States (“U.S.”) dollars (except share and per share data) 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.

As further described in Note 3 - Business Acquisitions and Divestitures, on May 10, 2021, the Company completed the sale of its Italian B2C gaming machine, sports betting, and digital gaming businesses, which met the criteria to be reported as a discontinued operation during the fourth quarter of 2020. As a result, financial results at December 31, 2021 and for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 are reflected in the condensed consolidated financial statements as a discontinued operation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of our condensed 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. On an ongoing basis we evaluate our estimates, judgments, and methodologies. 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.

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.

Table of Contents

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 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.

Significant Accounting Policies

There have been no other material changes to our significant accounting policies described in Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, in our 2021 Form 20-F.

New Accounting Standards - Recently Adopted

There has not been any recently adopted accounting guidance during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 with a significant effect on the condensed consolidated financial statements.

New Accounting Standards - Not Yet Adopted

In March 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2022-02, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures (“ASU 2022-02”). The amendments eliminate the troubled debt restructuring (“TDR”) recognition and measurement accounting model, and instead entities will evaluate the terms of a restructured financing agreement to determine whether it represents a new loan or a continuation of an existing loan. Although the TDR accounting model was eliminated, the financial difficulty criteria was retained to determine whether a restructuring should be disclosed under an expanded set of requirements about a creditor’s loan modification programs. In addition, the amendments will require entities to disclose gross current period write-offs by year of origination, also known as “vintage”. The TDR changes and vintage disclosure requirement would apply to the Company’s customer financing receivables. ASU 2022-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The amendments should be applied prospectively except for recognition and measurement of TDRs where an entity has an option to apply a modified retrospective transition method, resulting in a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings in the period of adoption. We expect to adopt ASU 2022-02 upon the effective date.

In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers (“ASU 2021-08”). The amendments create an exception to the general recognition and measurement principal in ASC 805, Business Combinations to measure assets and liabilities acquired in a business combination at fair value. Instead, an acquirer in a business combination will be required to apply ASC 606 to recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities that result from contracts accounted for under ASC 606 on the acquisition date and will generally result in the acquirer recognizing amounts consistent with those recorded by the acquiree immediately before the acquisition date. ASU 2021-08 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the timing and impact of adopting this guidance.

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

3.    Business Acquisitions and Divestitures

Business Acquisitions

On July 1, 2022, the Company completed the 100% equity interest acquisition of iSoftBet for cash consideration of €162 million (inclusive of €20 million deposited into an escrow account) and contingent consideration of up to €4 million. The Company funded the acquisition through a combination of cash on hand and utilization of its revolving credit facility. The acquisition of iSoftBet provides market-tested proprietary digital content, advanced game aggregation capabilities, scalable promotional tools, analytics, and creative talent to the Digital & Betting segment. The financial results of iSoftBet have been included within our Digital & Betting segment in our condensed consolidated financial statements since the date of purchase.

The purchase price allocation as of the date of the acquisition is based on a preliminary valuation and is subject to revision as more detailed analyses are completed and additional information about the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed becomes available.

The major classes of assets and liabilities to which the Company has preliminarily allocated the purchase price were as follows:

(€ millions) Notes July 1, 2022
Current assets 18
Intangible assets 8 59
Non-current assets 3
Total identifiable assets acquired 80
Current liabilities (10)
Non-current liabilities (22)
Total liabilities assumed (31)
Net identifiable assets acquired 49
Goodwill 7 117
Total purchase price 166

Divestitures

On February 25, 2022, the Parent’s wholly-owned subsidiary, IGT Lottery S.p.A. entered into a share sale and purchase agreement to sell 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, an entity of the Italian postal service provider group, for a purchase price of €700 million. The consideration received, net of €198 million cash and restricted cash transferred and €23 million of selling costs, was €479 million and resulted in a pre-tax gain on sale of $278 million, ($276 million net of tax) which is classified within Other non-operating (income) expense, net. The disposal group was a component of continuing operations within our Global Lottery segment through the closing date.

On September 14, 2022, the Company completed the sale and used the funds received at closing to pay transaction expenses and fund the partial tenders of the 3.500% Senior Secured Euro Notes due July 2024 and 6.500% Senior Secured U.S. Dollar Notes due February 2025. Refer to Note 9 - Debt for further information.

The Company has continuing involvement with the business sold via a transition services agreement (“TSA”). As part of the TSA, the Company provides various telecommunications, information technology, and back-office services for which the Company receives compensation. These services generally expire after no more than four years.

Discontinued Operations

On May 10, 2021, the Company completed the sale of its Italian B2C gaming machine, sports betting, and digital gaming businesses, which were previously reported under the Global Gaming segment and met the criteria to be reported as a discontinued operation during the fourth quarter of 2020, for a cash purchase price of €950 million (€725 million of which was paid at closing, €100 million of which was paid on August 5, 2021, and the remaining €125 million of which was paid on July 13, 2022).

The funds received at closing were used to pay transaction expenses and partially fund the full redemption of the 4.750% Senior Secured Euro Notes due February 2023 through the exercise of the make-whole call option. The consideration received, net of $139 million of cash and restricted cash transferred, was $1.0 billion and resulted in a pre-tax gain on sale of $396 million ($391 million net of tax).

We enter into various factoring agreements with third-party financial institutions to sell certain of our trade receivables. We factored trade receivables of $1.0 billion and $1.1 billion during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and year ended December 31, 2021, respectively, under these factoring arrangements, which reduced trade receivables. The cash received from these arrangements is reflected as cash provided by operating activities in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. In certain of these factoring arrangements, for ease of administration, we will collect customer payments related to the factored trade receivables, which we then remit to the financial institutions. At September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we had $44 million and $57 million, respectively, that was collected on behalf of the financial institutions and recorded as other current liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The net cash flows relating to these collections are reported as financing activities in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.

Texas Fun 5’s Instant Ticket Game

IGT Global Solutions Corporation (formerly GTECH Corporation) is party to four 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.

(a)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. Trial for four bellwether plaintiffs is currently scheduled for February 2023.

(b)Guerra, Esmeralda v. GTECH Corp. et al., filed on June 10, 2016 in Hidalgo County (No. C277716B). Plaintiff claims damages in excess of $0.5 million. Trial is currently scheduled for July 10, 2023.

(d)Campos, Osvaldo Guadalupe et al. v. GTECH Corp., filed on October 20, 2016 in Travis County (No. D1GN16005300). Plaintiffs claim damages in excess of $1 million.

Adrienne Benson and Mary Simonson, individually and on behalf of all others similarly situated v. Double Down Interactive LLC, et al.

On April 9, 2018, a plaintiff, Adrienne Benson, filed a putative class action against the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, International Game Technology, and Double Down Interactive LLC, a Washington limited liability company in the United States District Court for the Western District of Washington (the “Benson Matter”). On July 23, 2018, plaintiff filed a first amended complaint, adding named plaintiff Mary Simonson, and adding allegations to represent a putative class of all persons in the United States who purchased and allegedly lost virtual “chips” while playing games through an online gaming platform called Double Down Casino. On April 26, 2021, plaintiffs filed a second amended complaint naming IGT, a wholly-owned subsidiary of International Game Technology, as an additional defendant. Plaintiffs have asserted claims for alleged violations of Washington’s Recovery of Money Lost at Gambling Act, Washington’s Consumer Protection Act, and for unjust enrichment, and seeks unspecified money damages (including treble damages as appropriate), the award of reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs, pre- and post-judgment interest, and injunctive and/or declaratory relief.

International Game Technology acquired Double Down Interactive LLC (“DDI”) in 2012 and, effective June 1, 2017, sold DDI to DoubleU Diamond LLC (“DoubleU”) pursuant to a purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”). At all times relevant, DDI was the sole operator of the Double Down Casino, and International Game Technology asserts, among other defenses, that it has no liability for the actions of a bona fide subsidiary.

On May 10, 2018, DDI and DoubleU sent a claim notice (the “DDI Claim Notice”) to International Game Technology seeking indemnification and reimbursement of defense costs for all claims against Double U and its affiliates (the “DoubleU Entities”) in the Benson Matter, pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. On June 7, 2018, International Game Technology responded to the DDI Claim Notice, rejecting any obligation to indemnify or pay defense costs of the DoubleU Entities, and sent a claim notice to DoubleU for indemnification and reimbursement of defense costs for all claims against International Game Technology in the Benson Matter pursuant to the terms of certain agreements with DoubleU.

On June 17, 2021, IGT sent a claim notice to DoubleU for indemnification and reimbursement of defense costs for all claims against IGT in the Benson Matter pursuant to the terms of certain agreements with DoubleU.

Table of Contents

On August 29, 2022, the Company and DoubleDown Interactive Co., Ltd., parent company of DDI, announced an agreement in principle to settle the lawsuit and associated proceedings. Under the terms of the settlement, which would take effect only after final court approval of the proposed class settlement, a total of $415 million will be paid into a settlement fund, of which the Company’s subsidiaries will contribute $270 million and DDI will contribute $145 million. Subject to final court approval of the settlement in the Benson Matter, International Game Technology, IGT and the DoubleU Entities have also resolved all indemnification and other claims between themselves and their respective subsidiaries and affiliates relating to the Benson Matter.

As a result of the settlement agreement, the Company accrued $120 million and $270 million of non-operating expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively, related to the loss associated with the Benson Matter and related claims between IGT and DDI and their respective subsidiaries and affiliates.

($ in millions, except percentages) 2022 2021 2022 2021
Income from continuing operations before provision for income taxes 315 138 519 418
Provision for income taxes 21 37 74 217
Effective income tax rate 6.7 % 26.8 % 14.3 % 52.0 %

(1) Determined using an estimated annual effective income tax rate.

The effective income tax rate for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 of 6.7% and 14.3%, respectively, differed from the U.K. statutory rate of 19.0% primarily due to the low tax cost on the sale of our Italian commercial services business, foreign rate differential, valuation allowance related to our business interest expense limitation carryforward, and the impact of the international provisions of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the “Tax Act”) (GILTI).

The effective income tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 of 26.8% and 52.0%, respectively, differed from the U.K. statutory rate of 19.0% primarily due to foreign rate differential, valuation allowance related to our business interest expense limitation carryforward, losses with no tax benefit, and the impact of the international provisions of the Tax Act (BEAT and GILTI).

Quarterly, we evaluate the realizability of deferred income tax assets by jurisdiction and assess 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. At September 30, 2022, we believe that it is more-likely-than-not that a portion of the deferred income tax asset related to section 163(j), disallowed interest expense, will not be realized. As a result, during the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we recorded an additional valuation allowance of $31 million on this deferred tax asset ($140 million valuation allowance was recorded at December 31, 2021).

At September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we had $27 million of reserves for uncertain tax positions.

We recognize interest and penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense. At September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, $21 million of interest and penalties were accrued for uncertain tax positions.

The Company’s Italian corporate income tax returns for the calendar years ended December 31, 2015 through December 31, 2019 are under examination. On October 19, 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 on May 29, 2021 rejecting all findings. On December 9, 2021, the Company received a tax assessment notice for €15 million relating to calendar year 2015. On February 9, 2022, the Company submitted a voluntary settlement request which entitles the Company to an automatic 90-day extension. The 90 day extension expired on May 5, 2022 with no agreement with the Italian Tax Authorities. As a result, the Company filed an appeal with the Italian Tax Court against the tax assessment notice for calendar year 2015.

There were nominal stock options and unvested restricted stock awards excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 because including them would have had an antidilutive effect. No stock options and unvested restricted stock awards were excluded for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021.

17.    Restructuring

2021 Italian Workforce Redundancies

The 2021 Italian workforce redundancies plan was an initiative to eliminate certain redundancies as TSA services lapse, by commencing voluntary early retirement programs. We expect to incur approximately $38 million in severance and related employee costs under the plan through December 31, 2023 as management and the identified employees reach a mutual understanding of the separation benefits. Cash payments associated with the plan are expected to be made through 2030. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 we incurred $1 million under the plan. Since the plan’s inception, we incurred severance and related employee costs within our Global Lottery segment and corporate support function totaling $12 million.

18.    Leases

We have various arrangements for lottery and gaming equipment under which we are the lessor.

Our lease arrangements typically have lease terms ranging from one month to 4 years. These leases generally meet the criteria for operating lease classification, as the lease payments are typically variable based on a percentage of sales, a percentage of amounts wagered, net win, or a daily fee per active gaming terminal. Our leases generally do not contain variable payments that are dependent on an index or rate. We provide lessees with the option to extend the lease, which is considered when evaluating lease classification. Lease income from operating leases is included within service revenue in the condensed consolidated

statements of operations. Operating lease income was approximately 6% and 7% of total revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Operating lease income was approximately 6% of total revenue for both the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021.

Our sales-type lease arrangements typically have lease terms ranging from one year to 10 years. We provide lessees with the option to extend the lease, which is considered when evaluating lease classification. Lease income from sales-type leases is included within product sales in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. Total sales-type lease income was approximately 1% of total revenue for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021. Sales-type lease receivables are included within customer financing receivables, net, which are a component of other current assets and other non-current assets within the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Additional information on customer financing receivables is included in Note 5 – Receivables.

19.    Stock-Based Compensation

Digital & Betting Synthetic Equity Award Program

In 2021, the Company established a synthetic equity award program (the “D&B Equity Award Program”) designed to align the incentives of certain employees of the Company’s Digital & Betting segment with the growth in the valuation of such business. The amount of compensation paid to an employee will depend on the valuation of the Digital & Betting segment on each applicable vesting date and requires the employee’s continued service through each vesting date.

Awards under the D&B Equity Award Program vest in three tranches, with certain specified percentages (the “Tranche Percentages”) of the award scheduled to vest three, four, and five years after the grant date. The first vesting date is subject to acceleration in the event of a separate public listing of the Digital & Betting business, while the remaining two vesting dates shall not be affected.

Digital & Betting synthetic equity awards provide that on each applicable vesting date, the employee shall be entitled to an amount (payable in a combination of equity and cash) equal to a certain percentage (the “Synthetic SAR Percentage”) of the appreciation, if any, in the valuation of the Digital & Betting business at each vesting date over the contractually agreed initial valuation. Additionally, the employee shall be entitled to an amount (payable in a combination of equity and cash) equal to a certain percentage (the “Synthetic RSU Percentage”) of the valuation of the Digital & Betting business as of each vesting date.

At September 30, 2022, $5 million of estimated unrecognized compensation expense attributable to Digital & Betting synthetic equity awards will be recognized as compensation expense over a weighted average period of 3.5 years.

  1. Related Parties

On March 9, 2022, Enrico Drago, Chief Executive Officer, Digital & Betting, an immediate family member of Marco Drago, a member of the Parent’s board of directors, was granted a synthetic equity award pursuant to the D&B Equity Award Program with Tranche Percentages of 35%, 25%, and 40%, a Synthetic SAR Percentage of 1.275%, and a Synthetic RSU Percentage of 0.225%. At September 30, 2022, $3 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 3.7 years.

Item 2.     Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion and analysis of the Company's financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, including the notes thereto, included in this report, as well as “Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects” and “Item 18. Financial Statements” in the Company's 2021 Form 20-F.

The following discussion includes information for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021. Amounts reported in millions are computed based on the amounts in thousands. Certain amounts in columns and rows within tables may not foot due to rounding. Percentages presented are calculated from the underlying unrounded amounts.

The following discussion includes certain forward-looking statements. Actual results may differ materially from those discussed in such forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed below and elsewhere in this report and in “Item 3.D. Risk Factors” and “Safe Harbor Statement under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995” included in the Company's 2021 Form 20-F. As used in this Item 2, the terms “we,” “our,” “us,” and the “Company” refer to International Game Technology PLC together with its consolidated subsidiaries.

Business Overview

The Company is a global leader in gaming that delivers entertaining and responsible gaming experiences for players across all channels and regulated segments, from lotteries and gaming machines to sports betting and digital. Leveraging compelling content, substantial investment in innovation, player insights, operational expertise, and leading-edge technology, the Company’s solutions deliver gaming experiences that engage players and drive growth. The Company has a well-established local presence and relationships with governments and regulators in more than 100 countries around the world, and creates value by adhering to the highest standards of service, integrity, and responsibility.

We manage and report our operating results through three business segments: Global Lottery, Global Gaming, and Digital & Betting, along with a streamlined corporate support function. The Company’s operations for the periods presented herein are discussed accordingly.

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 conflict between Russia and Ukraine has caused disruptions and uncertainty in the global economy, including increased inflationary pressures, foreign exchange rate fluctuations, potential cybersecurity risks, and exacerbated supply chain challenges. However, this conflict did not have a material impact on our supply chain or our results of operations for the quarter ended September 30, 2022. 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 this conflict 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.

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. There have been no material changes to the critical accounting estimates previously disclosed in the Company’s 2021 Form 20-F, except as disclosed in “Item 1. Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)—Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies”, pertaining to the Process for Disclosure and Recording of Liabilities Related to Legal Proceedings.

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 “Item 1. Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)—Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” included herein.

Revenue

Total revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2022 increased $76 million, or 8%, to $1.1 billion from $1.0 billion for the prior corresponding period.

Total service revenue decreased primarily due to our Global Lottery segment experiencing an unfavorable foreign currency impact of $50 million primarily associated with our instant and draw-based game sales in Italy. Additionally, there was a decline in same-store sales of 0.5% in instant and draw-based ticket sales principally the result of higher activity in the prior corresponding period primarily attributable to a shift in consumer discretionary spending to lottery in lieu of other forms of entertainment options available during the pandemic. Same-store sales related to multi-jurisdiction jackpots primarily in the United States partially offset the impact of unfavorable foreign currency and lower instant and draw-based game ticket sales. Global Gaming service revenue increased primarily due to an increase in total yields from total installed base units, principally as a result of increased player demand and more active units becoming available to players as social distancing restrictions were mostly lifted. These restrictions included casino and gaming hall capacity restrictions and closures within the prior corresponding period, in an effort to mitigate the spread of COVID-19. Digital & Betting service revenue increased primarily due to our acquisition of iSoftBet which contributed $8 million during the period.

Total product sales increased $82 million, or 54%, to $234 million from $152 million, primarily within our Global Gaming segment, principally due to the lifting of many social distancing restrictions and casino operators returning to more moderate levels of investments resulting in a higher number of units sold.

See “Segment Operating Results” section below for further discussion related to the principal drivers of these changes.

Operating expenses

Cost of services

Cost of services for the three months ended September 30, 2022 decreased $7 million, or 2%, to $415 million from $422 million for the prior corresponding period. This decrease was primarily attributable to a $6 million decrease in depreciation and amortization in our Global Lottery segment, and a $3 million decrease in depreciation in our Global Gaming segment. Cost of services in our Digital & Betting segment increased $3 million, primarily attributable to the segment’s $12 million increase in service revenue. As a percentage of service revenue, cost of services decreased by approximately 50 basis points. The overall increase in gross service margins was primarily due to a 240 basis point increase in our Global Gaming segment resulting from increased yields in our total installed base units.

Cost of product sales

Cost of product sales for the three months ended September 30, 2022 increased $56 million, or 60%, to $149 million from $93 million for the prior corresponding period, primarily as a result of a $82 million increase in total product sales. Cost of product sales as a percentage of product sales increased by approximately 230 basis points driven primarily by an approximate 170 basis point increase in our Global Gaming segment, principally due to supply chain headwinds and related product mix implications, partially offset by higher average selling prices and high-margin patent cross-licensing agreements.

Selling, general and administrative

Selling, general and administrative for the three months ended September 30, 2022 increased $13 million, or 6%, to $207 million from $195 million for the prior corresponding period. This increase was primarily attributable to a $6 million increase in payroll and employee-related benefits.

Research and development

Research and development for the three months ended September 30, 2022 remained relatively flat when compared to the prior corresponding period.

Table of Contents

Non-operating expenses

Interest expense, net

Interest expense, net for the three months ended September 30, 2022 decreased $7 million, or 8%, to $73 million from $79 million for the prior corresponding period. This decrease was primarily due to the Company maintaining a lower average balance in our Senior Secured Notes compared to the prior corresponding period.

Foreign exchange gain, net

Foreign exchange gain, net for the three months ended September 30, 2022 was $37 million, compared to $6 million for the prior corresponding period. Foreign exchange gain, net is principally related to fluctuations in the euro to U.S. dollar exchange rate on internal and external debt.

Other non-operating (income) expense, net

Other non-operating income, net for the three months ended September 30, 2022 was $139 million, compared to a nominal expense for the prior corresponding period. During the three months ended September 30, 2022, the Company completed the sale of its Italian commercial services business, resulting in a $278 million gain. This gain was partially offset by the recognition of $120 million in non-operating expense related to the incremental loss associated with the settlement of the Benson Matter and indemnification claims by the DoubleU Entities related to Double Down Interactive LLC and its social gaming business sold in 2017 by International Game Technology, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The gain was also partially offset by $13 million in losses on extinguishment of debt.

Provision for income taxes

Provision for income taxes for the three months ended September 30, 2022 was $21 million compared to $37 million for the prior corresponding period. This change was primarily driven by the tax benefit arising from the DDI / Benson Matter provision and an increase in foreign exchange gains subject to a lower income tax rate as compared to the prior corresponding period.

Operating and facilities management contracts

Service revenue from Operating and facilities management contracts for the three months ended September 30, 2022 decreased $21 million, or 4%, to $518 million from $539 million for the prior corresponding period, primarily the result of unfavorable foreign currency impact of $43 million. Global same-store sales for instant and draw-based games experienced a 0.5% decline primarily attributable to higher sales experienced in the prior corresponding period due to COVID-19 related social distancing restrictions shifting consumer discretionary spending to lottery in lieu of other forms of entertainment. Global same-store sales for multi-jurisdiction jackpot ticket sales experienced a 46.7% increase, primarily attributable to elevated jackpot levels in the United States.

Systems, software, and other

Service revenue from Systems, software, and other for the three months ended September 30, 2022, which primarily consists of our Italian commercial services offering that was sold during the quarter, decreased by $8 million from the prior corresponding period as a result of an unfavorable foreign exchange impact of $11 million and approximately two weeks less revenue contributed by the Italian commercial services offering due to the divestiture on September 14, 2022.

Lottery products

Lottery products revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2022 increased $4 million, or 12%, to $39 million from $35 million for the prior corresponding period principally due to the delivery of multiple lottery systems to customers.

This decrease is primarily the result of decreased Operating and facilities management contracts revenue compared with the prior corresponding period as discussed above due primarily to a lower contribution from the Italian operating contracts partially driven by the impact of unfavorable foreign exchange.

Gaming terminal services

Service revenue from Gaming terminal services for the three months ended September 30, 2022 increased $10 million, or 8%, to $126 million from $116 million for the prior corresponding period.

Systems, software, and other

Service revenue from Systems, software, and other for the three months ended September 30, 2022 increased $2 million, or 4%, to $58 million from $56 million for the prior corresponding period principally related to the increase in active poker machines that were previously inactive in the prior corresponding period resulting from COVID-19 social distancing requirements.

Gaming terminals

Product sales from Gaming terminals for the three months ended September 30, 2022 increased $59 million, or 72%, to $140 million from $81 million for the prior corresponding period. This increase was primarily associated with an increase of 3,264 in machine units sold, primarily driven by replacement machine units in the United States and Canada, at a 9% higher average selling price than those in the prior corresponding period resulting from increased demand due to casino operators returning to more moderate levels of investments as a result of the industry’s recovery.

Gaming other

Product sales from Gaming other for the three months ended September 30, 2022 increased $19 million, or 54%, to $55 million from $36 million for the prior corresponding period, principally related to a $12 million increase in poker site licensing sales and a $10 million increase in intellectual property revenues primarily associated with the execution of patent cross-licensing agreements tied to remote game server solutions and game features.

Revenue

Total revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 increased $93 million, or 3%, to $3.1 billion from $3.0 billion for the prior corresponding period.

Total service revenue decreased primarily due to our Global Lottery segment experiencing an unfavorable foreign currency impact of $125 million primarily associated with our instant and draw-based game sales in Italy. Additionally, there was a decline in same-store sales for instant, draw-based, and multi-jurisdiction jackpot ticket sales by 5.1% in the aggregate, principally as a result of higher activity in the prior corresponding period due to a shift in consumer discretionary spending to lottery in lieu of other forms of entertainment options available during the pandemic. Global Gaming service revenue increased primarily due to an increase in total yields from total installed base units, principally as a result of increased player demand and more active units becoming available to players as social distancing restrictions were mostly lifted. The increase in Digital & Betting service revenue is primarily attributable to our acquisition of iSoftBet as well as expansion into new jurisdictions and growth in existing markets from our iGaming and sports betting solutions.

Total product sales increased $212 million, or 52%, to $618 million from $406 million, primarily within our Global Gaming segment, principally due to continued lifting of social distancing restrictions resulting in casino operators returning to more moderate levels of investments resulting in a higher number of units sold. Additionally, Global Lottery product sales increased primarily as a result of the renewal of the Poland Lottery contract.

See “Segment Operating Results” section below for further discussion related to the principal drivers of these changes.

Operating expenses

Cost of services

Cost of services for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 decreased $39 million, or 3%, to $1.26 billion from $1.30 billion for the prior corresponding period. This decrease was primarily attributable to a $27 million decrease in depreciation in our Global Lottery and Global Gaming segments of $16 million and $11 million, respectively, partially offset by an increase in our Digital & Betting segment. Additionally, within our Global Lottery and Global Gaming segments there was a $9 million decrease in insurance and taxes in the aggregate. As a percentage of service revenue, cost of services increased by approximately 80 basis points. The overall reduction in gross service margins was primarily due to an approximate 360 basis point decrease in our Global Lottery segment resulting from lower service revenue in Italy partially offset by increases in both our Global Gaming and Digital & Betting segments of approximately 800 and 280 basis points, respectively.

Cost of product sales

Cost of product sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 increased $135 million, or 53%, to $388 million from $253 million for the prior corresponding period, primarily as a result of a $212 million increase in total product sales. Cost of product sales as a percentage of product sales increased by approximately 40 basis points principally due to product mix.

Selling, general and administrative

Selling, general and administrative for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 increased $7 million, or 1%, to $595 million from $588 million for the prior corresponding period. This increase was primarily attributable to an increase in outside services of $13 million in Global Gaming and Corporate and Other of $8 million and $6 million, respectively. Additionally, there was an increase in non-cash restricted stock expense of $9 million in Corporate and Other and an increase in travel expenses of $7 million in the aggregate. These increases were partially offset by a $29 million decrease in bad debt expense within our Global Gaming segment.

Research and development

Research and development for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 remained relatively flat when compared to the prior corresponding period.

Table of Contents

Non-operating expenses

Interest expense, net

Interest expense, net for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 decreased $41 million, or 15%, to $223 million from $264 million for the prior corresponding period. This decrease was primarily due to the Company maintaining a lower average balance in our Senior Secured Notes compared to the prior corresponding period, as well as reductions in average interest rates.

Foreign exchange gain, net

Foreign exchange gain, net for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was $59 million, compared to $62 million for the prior corresponding period. Foreign exchange gain, net is principally related to fluctuations in the euro to U.S. dollar exchange rate on internal and external debt.

Other non-operating expense, net

Other non-operating expense, net for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 decreased $88 million, or 92%, to $8 million from $96 million for the prior corresponding period. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company completed the sale of its Italian commercial services business, resulting in a $278 million gain. This gain was partially offset by the recognition of $270 million in non-operating expense related to the loss associated with the settlement of the Benson Matter and indemnification claims by the DoubleU Entities related to Double Down Interactive LLC and its social gaming business sold in 2017 by International Game Technology, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The gain was also partially offset by $13 million in losses on extinguishment of debt. During the prior corresponding period, we incurred $67 million of expense related to the premium paid on the full redemption of the 4.750% Senior Secured Euro Notes due February 2023 through the exercise of the make-whole call option.

Provision for income taxes

Provision for income taxes for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 decreased $143 million, or 66%, to $74 million from $217 million for the prior corresponding period. This change was primarily related to an increase in foreign exchange gains subject to a lower income tax rate, a $55 million reduction in valuation allowance on business interest expense limitation carryforward, and the tax benefit arising from the DDI / Benson Matter provision. In addition, there were nominal taxes arising from BEAT for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to $13 million for the prior corresponding period.

Income from discontinued operations, net of tax

Income from discontinued operations, net of tax for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 decreased $24 million from the prior corresponding period. Discontinued operations for the prior corresponding period reflect the operating activities of our Italian B2C gaming machine, sports betting, and digital gaming businesses that were sold on May 10, 2021.

Gain on sale of discontinued operations, net of tax

During the second quarter of 2021, the Company recorded a $391 million gain upon the completion of the sale of its Italian B2C gaming machine, sports betting, and digital gaming businesses.

Operating and facilities management contracts

Service revenue from Operating and facilities management contracts for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 decreased $201 million, or 11%, to $1.6 billion from $1.8 billion for the prior corresponding period. This decrease was primarily the result of a $220 million decrease in instant, draw-based, and multi-jurisdiction jackpot ticket sales that experienced a 5.1% decrease in global same-store sales, on a constant-currency basis, and unfavorable foreign exchange impact of $99 million. Italy same-store sales declined by 11.8%, primarily attributable to higher sales experienced in the prior corresponding period due to COVID-19 related social distancing restrictions shifting consumer discretionary spending to lottery in lieu of other forms of entertainment. Global same-store sales, excluding Italy, experienced a 3.1% decrease, primarily attributable to higher sales experienced in the prior corresponding period due to increased instant and draw-based growth and higher jackpots from multi-state lotteries in the United States, as well as a shift in consumer discretionary income spending to lottery. Additionally, there was a $17 million decrease in lottery management agreement revenues, primarily attributable to incentives related to higher sales in the prior year.

Systems, software, and other

Service revenue from Systems, software, and other for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, which primarily consisted of our former Italian commercial services offering that was sold during the quarter, remained relatively flat when compared to the prior corresponding period.

Gross margin - Service

Gross margin on service revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 decreased to 48% from 52% for the prior corresponding period primarily as a result of lower revenues in higher margin jurisdictions and lower incentives earned on the U.S. Lottery Management Agreements. As the Global Lottery segment has a higher proportion of fixed-costs within its cost structure, gross margin decreases as sales decrease.

Gross margin - Product

Gross margin on product sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 decreased to 25% from 29% for the prior corresponding period principally due to product mix.

Operating margin

Operating margin for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 decreased to 35.5% from 41.0% for the prior corresponding period. This decrease is primarily the result of increased revenues experienced in the prior corresponding period as discussed above. As the Global Lottery segment has a low percentage of variable costs, operating leverage decreases as sales decrease.

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 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, primarily due to the long-term nature of its contracts, 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 and working capital requirements in the ordinary course of business for at least the next 12 months from the date of issuance of these condensed consolidated financial statements.

The cash management, 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 September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company's total available liquidity was as follows, respectively:

($ in millions) September 30, 2022 December 31, 2021
Revolving Credit Facilities 1,760 1,737
Cash and cash equivalents 401 591
Total Liquidity 2,161 2,327

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. In July 2022, the Company entered into an amendment extending the final maturity from July 31, 2024 to July 31, 2027. Refer to “Item 1. Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)—9. Debt” included herein for information regarding the Company’s debt obligations, including the maturity profile of borrowings and committed borrowing facilities.

At September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, approximately 18% of the Company’s net debt portfolio was exposed to interest rate fluctuations. The Company’s exposure to floating rates of interest primarily relates to the Euro Term Loan Facilities due January 2027.

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

September 30, 2022 December 31, 2021
($ in millions) $ % $ %
Euros 202 50 362 61
U.S. dollars 86 21 88 15
Other currencies 113 28 141 24
Total Cash 401 100 591 100

The Company holds an immaterial amount of cash in countries where there may be restrictions on transfer due to regulatory or governmental bodies. Based on the Company's review of such transfer restrictions and the cash balances held in such countries, it does not believe such transfer restrictions have an adverse impact on its ability to meet liquidity requirements at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

At September 30, 2022, we did not have any significant changes to off-balance sheet arrangements from those disclosed within our 2021 Form 20-F. Additionally, there have been no material changes to our contractual obligations disclosed under “Item 5.B. Liquidity and Capital Resources” in our 2021 Form 20-F.

Analysis of Cash Flows

Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities from Continuing Operations

During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company generated $621 million of net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations, an increase of $8 million compared to the prior corresponding period.

Non-cash adjustments to net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 were $405 million, compared to $682 million for the prior corresponding period. The principal drivers of the decrease in non-cash adjustments were related to a $278 million gain in sale of assets incurred in the current year, a decrease of $146 million in deferred income taxes, a decrease of $79 million related to a loss on the extinguishment of debt recognized in the prior corresponding period, and a decrease in depreciation and amortization of $50 million. These decreases were partially offset by increases as a result of the DDI / Benson Matter provision of $270 million and foreign exchange of $3 million.

Changes in operating assets and liabilities resulted in cash outflows of $229 million and $269 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Net Cash Provided by (Used in) Investing Activities from Continuing Operations

During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company generated $145 million of net cash for investing activities, an increase of $297 million from the prior corresponding period, principally due to an increase in proceeds from sale of business of $497 million principally related to the sale of our Italian commercial services business. This increase in proceeds was partially offset by $142 million related to our acquisition of iSoftBet, and a $58 million increase in capital expenditures.

Net Cash Used in Financing Activities

During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company used $1.1 billion of net cash for financing activities, compared to $1.8 billion used for the prior corresponding period.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, cash flows used in financing activities primarily included principal payments on long-term debt of $597 million, dividends paid to non-controlling interests of $177 million, dividends paid to shareholders of $121 million, repurchases of common stock of $93 million, $58 million in return of capital to non-controlling interests, and net repayments of short-term borrowings of $51 million. These cash outflows were partially offset by net proceeds from Revolving Credit Facilities of $42 million.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, cash flows used in financing activities primarily included principal payments on long-term debt of $2.8 billion, dividends paid to non-controlling interests of $89 million, $85 million of payments in connection with the early extinguishment of debt, and $92 million in return of capital to non-controlling interests. These cash outflows were partially offset by proceeds from long-term debt of $1.3 billion and net proceeds from Revolving Credit Facilities of $17 million.

Texas Fun 5’s Instant Ticket Game

IGT Global Solutions Corporation (formerly GTECH Corporation) is party to four 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.

(a)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. Trial for four bellwether plaintiffs is currently scheduled for February 2023.

(b)Guerra, Esmeralda v. GTECH Corp. et al., filed on June 10, 2016 in Hidalgo County (No. C277716B). Plaintiff claims damages in excess of $0.5 million. Trial is currently scheduled for July 10, 2023.

(c)Wiggins, Mario & Kimberly v. IGT Global Solutions Corp., filed on September 7, 2016 in Travis County (No. D1GN16004344). Plaintiffs claim damages in excess of $1 million.

(d)Campos, Osvaldo Guadalupe et al. v. GTECH Corp., filed on October 20, 2016 in Travis County (No. D1GN16005300). Plaintiffs claim damages in excess of $1 million.

We dispute the claims made in each of these cases and continue to defend against these lawsuits.

Adrienne Benson and Mary Simonson, individually and on behalf of all others similarly situated v. Double Down Interactive LLC, et al.

On April 9, 2018, a plaintiff, Adrienne Benson, filed a putative class action against the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, International Game Technology, and Double Down Interactive LLC, a Washington limited liability company in the United States District Court for the Western District of Washington (the “Benson Matter”). On July 23, 2018, plaintiff filed a first amended complaint, adding named plaintiff Mary Simonson, and adding allegations to represent a putative class of all persons in the United States who purchased and allegedly lost virtual “chips” while playing games through an online gaming platform called Double Down Casino. On April 26, 2021, plaintiffs filed a second amended complaint naming IGT, a wholly-owned subsidiary of International Game Technology, as an additional defendant. Plaintiffs have asserted claims for alleged violations of Washington’s Recovery of Money Lost at Gambling Act, Washington’s Consumer Protection Act, and for unjust enrichment, and seeks unspecified money damages (including treble damages as appropriate), the award of reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs, pre- and post-judgment interest, and injunctive and/or declaratory relief.

International Game Technology acquired Double Down Interactive LLC (“DDI”) in 2012 and, effective June 1, 2017, sold DDI to DoubleU Diamond LLC (“DoubleU”) pursuant to a purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”). At all times relevant, DDI was the sole operator of the Double Down Casino, and International Game Technology asserts, among other defenses, that it has no liability for the actions of a bona fide subsidiary.

Table of Contents

On May 10, 2018, DDI and DoubleU sent a claim notice (the “DDI Claim Notice”) to International Game Technology seeking indemnification and reimbursement of defense costs for all claims against Double U and its affiliates (the “DoubleU Entities”) in the Benson Matter, pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. On June 7, 2018, International Game Technology responded to the DDI Claim Notice, rejecting any obligation to indemnify or pay defense costs of the DoubleU Entities, and sent a claim notice to DoubleU for indemnification and reimbursement of defense costs for all claims against International Game Technology in the Benson Matter pursuant to the terms of certain agreements with DoubleU.

On June 17, 2021, IGT sent a claim notice to DoubleU for indemnification and reimbursement of defense costs for all claims against IGT in the Benson Matter pursuant to the terms of certain agreements with DoubleU.

On August 29, 2022, the Company and DoubleDown Interactive Co., Ltd., parent company of DDI, announced an agreement in principle to settle the lawsuit and associated proceedings. Under the terms of the settlement, which would take effect only after final court approval of the proposed class settlement, a total of $415 million will be paid into a settlement fund, of which the Company’s subsidiaries will contribute $270 million and DDI will contribute $145 million. Subject to final court approval of the settlement in the Benson Matter, International Game Technology, IGT and the DoubleU Entities have also resolved all indemnification and other claims between themselves and their respective subsidiaries and affiliates relating to the Benson Matter.

Shareholder Litigation

On October 14, 2022, a putative shareholder filed a putative class action lawsuit against the Company and certain of its current and former officers in the District of New Jersey alleging violations of the federal securities laws. The lawsuit alleges that between March 16, 2018 and August 29, 2022, the defendants allegedly failed to disclose certain information regarding the Company’s compliance with applicable gaming and lottery laws and regulations and the Company’s legal exposure in the Benson Matter. The Company intends to vigorously defend itself in this matter.

Item 1A.    Risk Factors

The following risks should be considered in conjunction with “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”, the consolidated financial statements and the related notes, and the other risks described in the Safe Harbor Statement set forth in the Company’s 2021 Form 20-F. These risks may affect the Company's operating results and, individually or in the aggregate, could cause its actual results to differ materially from past and anticipated future results. The following discussion of risks may contain forward-looking statements which are intended to be covered by the Safe Harbor Statement. Except as may be required by law, the Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise. The Company invites you to consult any further related disclosures made by the Parent from time to time in materials filed with or furnished to the SEC.

Risks related to the Company's Business and Industry

The Company has a concentrated customer base in certain business segments, 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 Agenzia delle Dogane e Dei Monopoli ("ADM"), the governmental authority responsible for regulating and supervising gaming in Italy. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, approximately 9% of the Company’s total consolidated revenues was earned for service provided for the operation of the Italian Gioco del Lotto game and approximately 9% was earned for service provided for the operation of the Italian Scratch & Win instant ticket game.

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. 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. The law providing the extension of the license for instant tickets in Italy has been challenged from two operators (Sisal and Stanleybet) and the European Court of Justice has been asked to express an opinion on the compatibility of that law within the E.U. law principles. 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.

Table of Contents

In addition, recurring revenues from the Company’s top 10 customers outside of Italy accounted for approximately 24% of its total consolidated revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. If the Company were to lose any of these larger customers, as planned with Camelot Lottery Solutions in the United Kingdom in 2024, 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

The Company derives a substantial portion of its revenues from its portfolio of long-term contracts in the Global Lottery segment (equal to approximately 51% of its total consolidated revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2022), awarded through competitive procurement processes. In addition, 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, and 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.

In the event that the Company is unable or unwilling to perform 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.

The COVID-19 pandemic has had and may continue to have an adverse effect on the Company’s business, operations, financial condition, and operating results

The COVID-19 pandemic has been, and continues to be, complex and rapidly evolving, with governments, public institutions, and other organizations imposing or recommending, and businesses and individuals implementing, restrictions on various activities or other actions to combat its spread, such as restrictions and bans on travel or transportation, stay-at-home directives, limitations on the size of gatherings, closures of work facilities, schools, public buildings and businesses, cancellation of events, including sporting events, concerts, conferences and meetings, and quarantines and lock-downs. The pandemic and its consequences, including the closure of almost all casinos and gaming halls globally in the first half of 2020, dramatically reduced demand for gaming products and services, which had a negative impact on all aspects of the Company’s gaming business. While many casinos and gaming halls have since reopened, some remain closed or have enacted new restrictions, and there can be no assurance that the Company will not be further affected by future shutdowns or other restrictions. The extent and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on the Company’s future financial and operational performance remains uncertain, and will depend on future developments, including the duration and spread, and any increase in COVID-19 cases in the markets in which the Company operates (including as a result of the emergence of new COVID-19 variants), and related actions taken by U.S. and international governments, state and local officials to prevent and contain disease spread, all of which are uncertain and cannot be predicted. Furthermore, some of the Company’s suppliers have experienced, and may continue to experience, adverse effects of the pandemic, including but not limited to constraints on ability to meet the Company’s supply requirements on schedule, bankruptcy or insolvency, any of which could impact the Company’s supply chain and its ability to meet demand for its products and its contractual commitments.

The current, and uncertain future, impact of the COVID-19 outbreak is expected to continue to impact the Company’s results, operations, outlooks, plans, goals, growth, reputation, cash flows, and liquidity.

Adverse changes in discretionary consumer spending and behavior, including as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, or other similar health epidemics or, the occurrence or perception of economic slowdown or inflation may adversely affect 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, including as a result of inflation, may adversely impact customers, suppliers and business partners in a variety of ways.

Table of Contents

The revenue generated by the Company's business depends on consumers’ discretionary income and their level of gaming activity. Economic factors resulting in a reduction of such discretionary income could result in fewer lottery ticket sales and fewer patrons visiting casinos or engaging in online or digital gaming. A decline in discretionary income over an extended period could cause some of the Company’s customers to close casinos or other gaming operations, which would adversely affect the Company's business. A decline in casino visits may also have an adverse impact on the businesses of casino customers and their ability to purchase or lease products and services from the Company.

The occurrence or perception of an economic slowdown or recession may also have a negative impact on consumer discretionary spending, particularly when combined with inflation or the occurrence or perception of increases in the prices of consumer products including food and energy. If these conditions persist or worsen, it may result in declines in lottery ticket sales and fewer patrons visiting casinos and engaging in online or digital gaming, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business and results of operations.

Additionally, the COVID-19 pandemic, and the public perception thereof, has contributed to consumer unease and decreased discretionary spending and consumer travel, which have had, and may continue to have, a negative effect on the Company’s gaming business. Other future health epidemics or contagious disease outbreaks could do the same. The Company cannot predict the effects that the continuing COVID-19 pandemic, and any resulting unfavorable social, political, and economic conditions and decrease in discretionary spending or travel may have on the Company, as they would be expected to impact the Company’s customers, suppliers, and business partners in different ways. Further, the COVID-19 pandemic, and the perception of risk of infection may affect consumer behavior as people may feel uncomfortable traveling or being in crowded environments such as casinos and gaming halls while the virus remains a threat. This has from time to time resulted, and in the future may result in fewer patrons visiting casinos and gaming halls and fewer players purchasing lottery and sports betting products, and lower amounts spent per casino visit or lottery purchase, or reduced spend on sports betting and other online gambling activities. Any of these factors may negatively impact the results of operations, cash flows, and financial condition of the Company’s casino customers, their ability to purchase or lease the Company’s products and services and therefore the Company’s gaming business revenue, revenues to lotteries and, therefore, the Company’s lottery business revenue, and revenues to the Company’s online casino and sportsbook partners and, therefore, the Company’s sports betting and digital business revenue.

The outbreak of COVID-19 and the resulting unfavorable economic conditions have also impacted and could continue to impact, the ability of the Company’s customers to make timely payments. These unfavorable conditions have caused, and could in the future cause, some of the Company’s customers to close casinos and gaming halls, decrease spending on marketing of or purchases of products or declare bankruptcy, which would adversely affect the Company’s business. The COVID-19 pandemic has also resulted in significant volatility in both the credit and equity markets, negatively impacting general economic conditions. The difficulty or inability of the Company’s customers to generate or obtain adequate levels of capital to finance their ongoing operations may reduce their ability to purchase the Company’s products and services. In the Company’s lottery business, difficult economic conditions may contribute to reductions in spending on marketing by customers and, in certain instances, less favorable terms under contracts, as many of the Company’s customers face budget shortfalls and seek to cut costs.

Slow growth or declines in the replacement of gaming machines, slow growth of new gaming jurisdictions, or slow addition of casinos and gaming halls in existing jurisdictions may have an adverse impact on the Company

Demand for the Company’s gaming products and services is driven by the replacement of existing gaming machines in casinos and gaming halls, the establishment of new jurisdictions, the opening of additional casinos and gaming halls in existing jurisdictions, and the expansion of existing casinos and gaming halls. Slow growth or declines in the replacement cycle of gaming machines resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic have reduced and may continue to reduce the demand for the Company’s products and negatively impact the Company’s results of operations, cash flows, and financial condition.

The opening of new casinos and gaming halls, expansion of existing casinos and gaming halls, and replacement of existing gaming machines in existing casinos and gaming halls fluctuate with demand, economic conditions, regulatory approvals, and the availability of financing, and have been, and could continue to be, adversely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition, the expansion of gaming into new jurisdictions can be a protracted process. Any of these factors could delay, restrict, or prohibit the expansion of the Company’s business and negatively impact the Company’s results of operations, cash flows, and financial condition.

Table of Contents

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 September 30, 2022, the Company had outstanding performance bonds and letters of credit in an aggregate amount of approximately $1.2 billion. These instruments present a potential expense for the Company and 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, or prospects.

Slow growth or declines in the lottery and gaming markets could lead to lower revenues for the Company

The Company’s future success will depend, in part, on the success of the lottery and gaming industries 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. In addition, there is a risk that new products and services may replace existing products and services and the Company's customers might acquire or develop competencies that reduce their dependencies on the Company's product and services. The replacement of old products and services with new products and services may offset the overall growth of sales of the Company. A failure by the Company to achieve these goals could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, business, financial condition, or prospects.

Brexit has created uncertainty that could impact the Company's operations, business, financial condition, or prospects

The U.K. exited the E.U. on January 31, 2020, which commenced a transition period through December 31, 2020, during which the U.K. continued to apply E.U. laws and regulations and the trading relationship between the U.K. and the E.U. remained the same. In December 2020, the U.K. and E.U. announced they had entered into a post-Brexit deal (the “Post-Brexit Trade Agreement”) on certain aspects of trade and other strategic and political issues and on January 1, 2021, the U.K. left the European Union Single Market and Customs Union. The Post-Brexit Trade Agreement offers U.K. and E.U. companies preferential access to each other’s markets, ensuring imported goods will be free of tariffs and quotas; however, economic relations between the U.K. and the E.U. will now be on more restricted terms than existed previously. While the Post-Brexit Trade Agreement provides some clarity regarding the future relationship between the U.K. and the E.U., uncertainties remain and further negotiations are expected. The continued uncertainty following the U.K.’s withdrawal from the E.U. could adversely affect business activity, restrict the movement of capital and the mobility of personnel and otherwise impair political stability and economic conditions in the U.K., the E.U. and elsewhere. Any of these developments could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, future operations, operating results, and cash flows.

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

The Company must continually introduce and successfully market new games and technologies to remain competitive and effectively stimulate customer demand. The process of developing new 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 game content and technologically innovative products and the Company fails to keep pace, its business could be adversely affected. In addition, if the Company fails to accurately anticipate customer needs and end-user preferences through the development of new products and technologies, the Company could lose business to its competitors, which would adversely affect its results of operations, business, financial condition, or prospects. The Company intends to continue investing resources in research and development. There is no assurance that its investments in research and development will guarantee successful products. The Company invests heavily in product development in various disciplines: platform hardware, platform software, digital services, content (game) design, and casino software systems. 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 across all channels 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

Table of Contents

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 market may be harmed

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, most recently Zynga Inc. and Acres Gaming Inc., 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 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 market may be harmed

The Company licenses intellectual property rights from third parties. 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.

In addition, some of the Company’s most popular games and features, such as the Wheel of Fortune® family of premium games, are based on trademarks, copyrights, patents, and other intellectual property licensed from third parties. The Company’s future success may depend upon its ability to obtain, retain and/or expand licenses for popular intellectual property rights with reasonable terms in a competitive market. If the Company cannot renew and/or expand existing licenses, it may be required to discontinue or limit its use of the games or gaming machines that use the licensed technology or bear the licensed marks, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, business, financial condition, or prospects.

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.

The Company’s business may be adversely affected by lower cost of entry into the gaming industry

As a result of developments in digital and internet gaming, the cost of entry to the gaming market has decreased significantly. This has resulted in a highly competitive environment. Digital and internet gaming have emerged as substantial methods of competition from existing competitors and, increasingly, new competitors as a result of the lower cost of entry. The increased competition may result in increased pricing pressures on a number of the Company’s products and services, and may impact the Company’s results and financial position.

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 May 10, 2021, the Company completed the sale of its Italian B2C gaming machine, sports betting, and digital gaming businesses to Gamenet Group S.p.A. and on September 14, 2022, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company completed the sale of the Company’s Italian commercial services business to PostePay S.p.A. – Patrimonio Destinato IMEL. 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 key employees and the retention of uncertain contingent liabilities related to the divested business. 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 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 strategy will depend to some degree upon the ability of its management to identify, complete 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 and regulations 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 severe weather and other geological events and geopolitical events in the locations where the Company’s customers, suppliers or regulators operate

The Company may be impacted by severe weather and other geological events (including as a result of climate change), including hurricanes, earthquakes, snow or ice storms, floods or tsunamis, that could disrupt the Company’s operations or the operations of the Company’s customers, suppliers, data service providers and regulators. Natural disasters or other disruptions at any of the Company’s facilities or the facilities of the Company’s suppliers, may impair or delay the operation, development, provisions or delivery of the Company’s products and services. The Company’s operations could also be impacted by geopolitical events, such as the outbreak of hostilities (such as the Russia-Ukraine conflict), or other acts of violence, including escalation of war or terrorism, any of which could adversely affect the Company’s ability to operate and deliver its products and services. 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

Changing enforcement of the Wire Act may negatively impact the Company's operations, business, financial condition, or prospects

On January 14, 2019, the U.S. Department of Justice (the "DOJ") published an opinion (the "2019 Opinion") reversing its previously-issued opinion (the "2011 Opinion") that the Wire Act, which prohibits several types of wager-related communications over a "wire communications facility", was applicable only to sports betting. The 2019 Opinion interprets the Wire Act as applying to other forms of gambling that cross state lines, though the precise scope of the 2019 Opinion is unclear, and the DOJ has not yet addressed how it plans to enforce the Wire Act in light of the 2019 Opinion. Further, the New Hampshire Lottery Commission and certain private parties commenced litigation in federal district court in New Hampshire challenging the 2019 Opinion. In response to this and other lawsuits, the DOJ issued a memorandum in April 2019 acknowledging that the 2019 Opinion did not consider whether the Wire Act applies to State lotteries and their vendors, and the DOJ is now considering this issue. In connection with such acknowledgment, the DOJ also extended the non-prosecution period for State lotteries and their vendors indefinitely while they consider the question. If the DOJ concludes that the Wire Act does apply to State lotteries and/or their vendors, they would extend the non-prosecution period for an additional period of 90 days after the DOJ publicly announces such position.

On June 3, 2019, the U.S. District Court for the District of New Hampshire ruled in favor of the plaintiffs and opined that the Wire Act applies only to sports betting and related activities (the “NH Decision”). The NH Decision also set aside the 2019 Opinion leaving the 2011 Opinion as the DOJ's only stated opinion on the subject. On August 16, 2019, the DOJ filed a Notice of Appeal with respect to the NH Decision. On January 20, 2021, the United States Court of Appeals for the First Circuit affirmed in part the NH Decision (the “First Circuit Decision”). The First Circuit Decision also vacated the portion of the NH Decision that set aside the 2019 Opinion. The DOJ had until June 21, 2021 to file a petition for writ of certiorari seeking review by the U.S. Supreme Court. However, the DOJ let that deadline pass without filing a writ or seeking an extension. Accordingly, the First Circuit Decision is final and unappealable. It is unclear when the DOJ will conclude its consideration of whether the Wire Act applies to State lotteries and their vendors, or whether other courts would come to the same conclusions set forth in the NH Decision and the First Circuit Decision. If the Wire Act is broadly interpreted and enforced to prohibit activities in which the Company and its customers are engaged, the Company could be subject to investigations, criminal and civil penalties, sanctions and/or other remedial measures and/or the Company may be required to substantially change the way it conducts its business, any of which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, business, financial condition, or prospects.

On November 24, 2021, the Company filed a complaint against the DOJ in the U.S. District Court for the District of Rhode Island (“Rhode Island District Court”). The complaint seeks declaratory relief that the Wire Act applies only to sports betting and related activities. If granted, the Company would enjoy the same relief that the plaintiffs received in the NH Decision, that the Wire Act applies solely to sports betting and related activities wherever the Company’s U.S. businesses are located, as opposed to the current protection which is currently limited to the First Circuit. On February 23, 2022, the DOJ filed a Motion to Dismiss (“MTD”) the Company’s complaint, and on March 16, 2022, the Company filed its opposition to the DOJ’s MTD and filed a cross-motion for summary judgement. On September 15, 2022, the Rhode Island District Court denied DOJ’s MTD, and granted IGT motion for summary judgment and issued a declaratory judgment that the Wire Act does not apply to the Company’s non-sports betting operations. The DOJ may appeal the Rhode Island District Court’s decision within sixty (60) days from the date of its ruling.

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. In particular, the Italian government has recently banned gaming advertising and significantly raised gaming taxes. Any changes in the legal or regulatory framework or other changes, such as increases in the taxation of sports betting or gaming, 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, sports betting, and gaming are not permitted unless expressly authorized by law. The successful implementation of the

Table of Contents

Company’s growth strategy and its business could be materially adversely affected if jurisdictions that do not currently authorize lotteries, sports betting, or gaming do not approve such activities or if those jurisdictions that currently authorize lotteries, sports betting, or gaming do not continue to permit such activities.

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 gaming regulations. These regulations and investigations vary from time to time and from jurisdiction to jurisdiction where the Company operates. 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

The GDPR came into effect on May 25, 2018, expanding the rules on using personal data and increasing the risks of processing personal data compared to prior legislation and introducing new obligations on data controllers and rights for data subjects, including, among others:

•accountability and transparency requirements, which will require data controllers to demonstrate and record compliance with the GDPR and to provide more detailed information to data subjects regarding processing;

•enhanced data consent requirements, which includes "explicit" consent in relation to the processing of sensitive data;

•obligations to consider data privacy as any new products or services are developed and limit the amount of information collected, processed, and stored as well as its accessibility;

•constraints on using data to profile data subjects;

•providing data subjects with personal data in a usable format on request and erasing personal data in certain circumstances; and

•reporting of breaches without undue delay (72 hours where feasible).

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 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 or 4% of worldwide annual revenue, 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.

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, 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 gaming industry could lead to increased gaming regulation

The popularity and acceptance of gaming is influenced by prevailing social attitudes toward gaming, and changes in social attitudes toward gaming could result in reduced acceptance of gaming as a leisure activity. Further, from time to time, the gaming industry is exposed to negative publicity related to gaming behavior, gaming by minors, the presence of gaming machines in too many locations, risks related to digital gaming and alleged association with money laundering. Publicity regarding problem gaming 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 such 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. For example, on December 22, 2017, the U.S. government enacted comprehensive tax legislation through the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the "Tax Act"), which significantly changed the U.S. corporate income tax system and has had a meaningful impact on the Company’s provision for income taxes. The Tax Act made broad changes to the U.S. federal income tax code, including reducing the federal corporate income tax rate from 35% to 21%, imposing limitations on the Company’s ability to deduct interest expense for tax purposes, creating a new minimum tax on GILTI, and creating BEAT, among many other complex provisions.

In 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 the development of rules directed at counteracting the effects of tax havens and preferential tax regimes in countries around the world.

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. These changes include (amongst others) restrictions on interest and other deductions for tax purposes, the introduction of broad anti-hybrid regimes and reform of controlled foreign company rules. Changes are also expected to arise in the application of certain double tax treaties as a result of the implementation and adoption of the OECD’s Multilateral Instrument, which may restrict the Company’s ability to rely on the terms of relevant double tax treaties in certain circumstances. Further, recent BEPS developments include proposals for new profit allocation and nexus rules and for rules to ensure that the profits of multinational enterprises are subject to a minimum rate of tax, and the OECD/G20 Inclusive Framework (“IF”) has adopted a two-pillar approach as the basis for this ongoing project. In October 2020, the OECD released "Blueprints" for the so-called Pillar One and Pillar Two, which set out the status with respect to current proposals for consultation. The IF’s stated aim was to resolve outstanding issues by mid-2021, following which implementation of the final recommendations of the project could lead to further amendment of domestic tax laws and bilateral tax treaties; however, this process remains ongoing at present.

In June 2021, the finance ministers of the G7 nations announced an agreement on the principles of the two-pillar solution to tackle the challenges of BEPS. Following the G7 announcement, the IF announced on July 1, 2021 broad agreement on the two pillars. On October 8, 2021, the OECD announced that 130 countries and jurisdictions had agreed to join an international tax framework implementing the two pillars. The announcement provided that regulated financial services are excluded from the application of Pillar One. The announcement also provided that the proposals under Pillar Two would apply to multinational groups with revenues exceeding €750 million and would seek to establish a minimum tax rate of at least 15% by operation of a globally coordinated set of rules, including an Income Inclusion Rule and an Undertaxed Payment Rule.

The IF will work towards an agreement and the release of an implementation plan, which will contemplate bringing Pillar Two into law in 2023 with an effective date in 2024.

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.

Table of Contents

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 license or authorization and thereby have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, business, financial condition, or prospects.

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 and electronic gaming machines from outside sources. The Company 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 production schedules. Disruptions and delays could adversely affect our suppliers’ ability to meet production schedules.

During 2021 and the first nine months of 2022, the Company experienced, and the Company may continue to experience, disruptions throughout its supply chain. In particular, the Company has been adversely impacted by a shortage in the supply of electronic components necessary for the manufacture of gaming machines. These shortages have required 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 it will be impacted by the 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, 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 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.

In the Company’s digital gaming business, the Company often relies on third-party data center providers to, among other things, host the Company’s remote game servers. The digital gaming business could be adversely impacted by breaches of or disruptions to these third-party data centers, including potential service level penalties with respect to the Company’s customers, reputational harm, the disclosure of proprietary information or the theft of the Company’s assets.

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 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 and directors and its reputation in this regard is an important factor in its business dealings with lottery, gaming, 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.

For example, in October 2020, the Italian Tax Police announced that it is investigating alleged misconduct by a small number of the Company’s former employees. The alleged misconduct involved unauthorized access to the Company’s lottery system in Italy in order to identify and redeem winning scratch-off lottery tickets. The investigation has since progressed with the Italian prosecutor commencing criminal proceedings against several of the Company’s former employees. The investigation also has led to the initiation of other governmental reviews and inspections, including by the Italian lottery regulator. The Company is fully cooperating with the Italian Tax Police and other regulators in order to facilitate their reviews and has taken proactive steps to ensure the integrity of the Company’s games and to protect the interests of the Company’s customers. The Company has also 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, the investigation 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 or unauthorized access of a Company system, 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.

The Company and its operations are subject to cyber attacks 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, and theft and security breaches 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 and liability exposure. Cyber attacks on businesses are becoming more frequent, and increasingly more difficult to anticipate and prevent due to their rapidly evolving nature. The Company continues to experience cyber attacks of varying degrees and phishing attacks on a regular basis. The Company's internal policies and procedures may not be able to prevent or detect every cyber attack or reduce all negative effects they may cause. In addition, the Company's insurance policies may not be sufficient to mitigate all potential negative effects of a cyber attack.

Any systems failure or compromise of the Company's security that results in the release of confidential business or personal information could seriously harm the Company's reputation and have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, business, financial condition, or prospects.

The Company's security measures may also be breached due to employee error, malfeasance, system errors or vulnerabilities, including vulnerabilities of the Company's subcontractors, vendors, suppliers, or otherwise. Such breach could result in significant reputational, legal, and financial liability, and may potentially have a material adverse effect upon the Company’s

Table of Contents

business, results of operations and financial condition. 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. Additionally, cyber attacks 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.

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. 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 software and hardware in an effort to avoid, detect and correct any technical errors. 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, cyber attacks, 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.

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 it to comply with covenants that may limit the Company’s ability to:

•pay dividends and repurchase shares;

•acquire assets of other companies or acquire, merge or consolidate with other companies;

•dispose of assets;

•incur indebtedness; 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. 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 nine months ended September 30, 2022 the Company did not identify any events or circumstances that would indicate that it is more likely than not that the fair value of any reporting

Table of Contents

unit was less than its carrying amount, the Company cannot provide assurance that future changes will not require additional material impairment charges in any of its business segments 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 September 30, 2022, $35 million of the Company’s outstanding indebtedness had an interest rate which was calculated with reference to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”). The Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) is the principal replacement reference rate for USD LIBOR in the Company’s outstanding indebtedness agreements. Because SOFR is based on overnight funding transactions secured by U.S. Treasury securities, it differs fundamentally from 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 international 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, as well as geopolitical developments such as the Russia-Ukraine conflict, fluctuating commodity prices, trade tariff developments, and inflation have caused, and may in the future cause, global economic uncertainty, and uncertainty about the interest rate environment, which could amplify the volatility of currency fluctuations. 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 S.p.A., and the Parent’s loyalty voting structure, may limit other shareholders' ability to influence corporate decisions

At September 30, 2022, De Agostini S.p.A. had an economic interest in the Parent of approximately 49.39% (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 64.51% of the total voting rights (excluding treasury shares). See “Item 7. Major Shareholders and Related Party Transactions” in the Company’s 2021 Form 20-F 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) on 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

Table of Contents

advisors with respect to treatment of Special Voting Shares. See “Item 10.E Taxation” in the Company’s 2021 Form 20-F 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.
