Galaxy Gaming Reports Q3 2022 Financial Results
Financial Highlights
Q3 2022 vs. Q3 2021
Revenue increased 12% to $5,907K
Adjusted EBITDA decreased 5% to $2,350K
Net loss of $(699)K vs. net income of $874K
9 Months 2022 vs. 9 Months 2021

Balance Sheet Changes (vs. December 31, 2021)
Cash increased 20% to $19,275K
Total long-term debt1 (gross) decreased to $59,550K from $60,500K
Stockholders’ deficit increased to $(18,506)K from $(17,286)K
Executive Comments
“Despite the continued strengthening of the US dollar, we had an excellent quarter,” said Todd Cravens, President and CEO. “On a constant currency basis, revenue increased by 19% in the quarter and 27% in the first nine months vs. the same periods in 2021. As compared to Q2 2022, sequential revenue growth was 6% on a constant currency basis. But the most newsworthy event happened after the end of the quarter at G2E – the gaming show held annually in Las Vegas. We introduced several new games and new technologies that were very well received by clients. In fact, we already have several commitments to trial some of these new products.
“Finally, at the end of the quarter, in consideration of a $2 million cash payment, we eliminated the obligation to make contingent consideration payments to the original seller of the intellectual property supporting our Bonus Craps™ side bet. Based on the run rate in Q3, this should save us around $315K on an annual basis and potentially more as Bonus Craps deployments increase.”

1 Includes current portion.
“Exchange rates, interest rates and inflation rates worsened in Q3,” stated Harry Hagerty, Galaxy’s CFO. “The dollar continued to appreciate versus the Euro and the British Pound, and the floating rate upon which our interest expense is calculated increased by 138 basis points in the quarter. Inflation continues to affect us as most of our expenses are denominated in US dollars, and the current quarter reflects a higher-than-normal level of professional services expenses as we strengthen our financial systems and our intellectual property protection. But despite the challenges, the Company is performing well, as Todd’s comments about revenue in constant currency and our G2E performance attest. Our balance sheet improved in the quarter with increased cash balances and modestly reduced debt balances, and we were comfortably in compliance with the financial covenant in our Fortress credit agreement.
“The worsening rates environment requires us to modestly modify our guidance for the remainder of the current year,” Hagerty added. “We now forecast revenue in the midpoint of the previously expressed range of $22.5-$23.5 million and Adjusted EBITDA at the low end of the previously expressed range of $10-11 million. This forecast assumes no new lockdowns from COVID-19 or the equivalent, no worsening of the impact to our business from the war in Ukraine, and no economic recession.”
On November 11, 2022, the Board of Directors reauthorized repurchases of the Company’s common stock of up to $750,000, subject to the Company remaining in compliance with the provisions of the Term Loan Credit Agreement and, in particular, the $750,000 restricted payments basket.

GALAXY GAMING REPORTS Q2 2022 FINANCIAL RESULTS
LAS VEGAS, Aug. 15, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Galaxy Gaming, Inc. (OTCQB: GLXZ), a developer and distributor of casino table games and enhanced systems for land-based casinos and iGaming content, announced today its financial results for the quarter and six months June 30, 2022.
Financial Highlights
Q2 2022 vs. Q2 2021
Revenue increased 20% to $5,676K
Adjusted EBITDA increased 10% to $2,358K
Net loss of $(1,116)K vs. net income of 550K
1H 2022 vs. 1H 2021
Revenue increased 28% to $11,595K
Adjusted EBITDA increased 31% to $5,032K
Net loss of $(1,130)K vs. net income of 639K
Balance Sheet Changes (vs. December 31, 2021)
Cash increased 7% to $17,250K
Total long-term debt1 (gross) decreased to $59,868K from $60,500K
Stockholders’ deficit increased to $(18,0297)K from $(17,286)K
Executive Comments
“The second quarter of 2022 was a perfect storm of rates - foreign exchange rates, inflation rates and interest rates,” said Harry Hagerty, Galaxy’s CFO. “The appreciation of the US Dollar against the Euro and the British Pound cost us $190K in revenue in the quarter (as compared to what we would have realized using the rates that applied in Q2 2021). We have seen very little benefit from the new rates on the expense side, as most of our expenses are denominated in dollars. The increase in inflation has affected us as we have seen significant increases in travel expenses and are having to offer increased salaries and wages to hire new employees and to retain existing ones. Finally, the floating interest rate on which our long-term debt is based has risen by 116 basis points from January to July.”
“The external conditions that Harry described masked what was an excellent quarter and first half,” said Todd Cravens, President and CEO. “On a constant currency basis, revenue increased by 24% in the quarter and the 32% in the first half as compared to the same periods in 2021. And we have some exciting things happening in the second half. In Galaxy Core (our land-based business), one of our high-end UK customers will launch the first three-meter progressive, with a top side bet of £100 – the first in the world. We started installations of our new Triton 1.0 progressive platform in the US in the third quarter and will demonstrate Triton 2.0 at G2E in October. Galaxy Digital (our online business) continues to do well. With our partner SPIN Games, we launched the first online 21+3? Progressive, and we will release our own online roulette and baccarat titles in the second half of 2022 to complement our strong position in blackjack side bets. I’m excited about the fundamentals of our business and am confident we’ll manage through the wider macroeconomic issues. We focus on the things we can control.”
“Despite the headwinds, our liquidity and balance sheet remain in good shape,” continued Hagerty. “We had more than $17 million in cash at quarter-end and were comfortably in compliance with the net leverage covenant in the Fortress Credit Agreement.
“Unfortunately, current exchange rates are even lower now than they were in Q2,” Hagerty added. “On the assumption that these rates will be with us for the rest of the year and that the cost and wage pressures will also continue, we are lowering our guidance for the year. We now forecast revenue in a range of $22.5-$23.5 million and Adjusted EBITDA in a range of $10-11 million. This forecast assumes no new lockdowns from COVID-19, no impact to our business from the war in Ukraine, and no economic recession.”

Annually, Galaxy Gaming sees more than 1.2 billion wagers placed on its Blackjack side bet games as a result of their broad distribution across the world in both brick-and-mortar and online casinos.

Commenting on the deal, White Hat Studios CEO, Andy Whitworth, said: ‘We’re delighted to be working with Galaxy Gaming. This is a perfect relationship as both companies have such a resolute focus on innovation.
“I’m really excited by our first title Blackjack Players Choice, which is actually a game I’ve wanted to build for years. It gives players true flexibility and choice by allowing them to select which of Galaxy’s side bets they wish to play. We have been blown away by positive operator feedback and are already building operator branded versions of the first game.”
Todd Cravens, President and CEO of Galaxy Gaming, said: “As White Hat Studios grows rapidly in the US, we are thrilled to have our world-famous content as part of their prestigious line-up of games.”

GALAXY GAMING REPORTS Q4 AND FULL YEAR 2021 FINANCIAL RESULTS

Revenue increased 73% to $5,670K
Adjusted EBITDA increased 93% to $2,431K1
Net income of $598K vs. net income of $1,179K2
Full Year 2021 vs. Full Year 2020

Total long-term debt4 (gross) increased to $60,500K from $52,051K
Stockholders’ deficit decreased to $(17,286)K from $(24,797)K
Executive Comments
“We finished 2021 with positive momentum,” said Todd Cravens, President and CEO. “Even with some of our clients’ properties still affected by COVID-19, we delivered gross revenue of $6.1 million in the fourth quarter, a record. Our iGaming business performed very well, with iGaming gross revenues of $8.1 million in 2021, also a record. We believe, as the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic continue to subside for our clients, we will experience a strong recovery in our GG Core business (felt and electronics) and continued growth in our iGaming business.”
“Our financial position is strong,” said Harry Hagerty, the Company’s CFO. “We have significant cash balances and modest debt maturities this year. We are prohibited from paying dividends or repurchasing stock until November of this year due to continuing restrictions imposed by the Main Street Priority Loan repaid last year. While we will remain responsive, we intend to continue to build up our cash position to keep net leverage low. Total Net Leverage is the only financial covenant in our Fortress loan, and we were comfortably in compliance with that covenant at year-end.”
Hagerty added, “For fiscal 2022, we are forecasting revenue (net of iGaming royalties) in a range of $23.5 to $25.0 million, and Adjusted EBITDA in a range of $11.5 to $12.5 million. This forecast assumes no new lockdowns from COVID-19, no impact to our business from the war in Ukraine, and no economic recession.”
Governance Comments
“As we enter the 2022 calendar year, we look ahead in focusing the Company’s business efforts beyond on the severe negative existential impacts of the pandemic. We also, through substantial efforts of our collective team, set the Saucier litigation and related refinancing in our rear-view mirror in the midst of the tough operating environment of our customers which, in some cases, included complete closures. Additionally, in response to the significant increase in the price of our stock in 2021, we have decided to restructure Board compensation beyond the 35% reduction in equity compensation we recently announced,” stated Mark Lipparelli, Chair of the Galaxy Board. “We modified our methodology and targeted aggregate annual Board compensation for 2022 at the levels presented below, for all members, and intend to pay such compensation 60% in cash and 40% in stock. Cash compensation will be paid monthly in arrears and stock compensation will be paid quarterly in arrears, with the stock valued at the average daily closing price in the last month of the quarter.

GALAXY GAMING ANNOUNCES COMPLETION OF SETTLEMENT WITH TRIANGULUM
Fortress Credit Agreement
On November 15, 2021, the Company entered into a Term Loan Credit Agreement (the “Fortress Credit Agreement”) with Fortress Credit Corp. as administrative agent, collateral agent and lender (and other related agreements). Pursuant to the Fortress Credit Agreement, the Company borrowed $60.0 million of senior secured term loans, the gross loan proceeds being used as follows: approximately $39.5 million was paid to Triangulum as full payment of the settlement amount pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, approximately $11.1 million was used to repay in full the Company’s Main Street and Nevada State Bank loans, and approximately $4.1 million was used to pay fees and expenses. The remaining approximately $5.3 million was added to the Company’s cash on hand.
The loans under the Fortress Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate equal to, at the Company’s option, either (a) LIBOR (or a successor rate, determined in accordance with the Fortress Credit Agreement) plus 7.75%, subject to a reduction to 7.50% upon the achievement of a net leverage target or (b) a base rate determined by reference to the greatest of (i) the federal funds rate plus 0.50%, (ii) the prime rate as determined by reference to The Wall Street Journal’s “Prime Rate” and (iii) the one-month adjusted LIBOR rate plus 1.00%, plus 6.75%, subject to a reduction to 6.50% upon the achievement of a net leverage target. The loan has a final maturity of November 15, 2026. The obligations under the Fortress Credit Agreement are guaranteed by the Company’s subsidiaries and are secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries. The Fortress Credit Agreement requires, among other things, amortization payments of $150,000 per quarter and includes an annual sweep of 50% of excess cash flow.
In connection with entering into the Fortress Credit Agreement, the Company also issued warrants to purchase a total of up to 778,320 shares of the Company’s common stock to certain affiliates of Fortress at a price per share of $0.01. The warrants are exercisable at any time, subject to certain restrictions.
The foregoing is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Fortress Credit Agreement and the warrants, copies of which will be filed as exhibits to the 8-K filed in connection with this press release.
Macquarie Capital acted as financial advisor to Galaxy in connection with the financing.
Executive Comments
“The Fortress transaction and the resulting satisfaction of the Settlement Agreement are a major achievement for Galaxy,” stated Todd Cravens, Galaxy’s President and CEO. “The expense and uncertainty of the Triangulum litigation are behind us, allowing us to focus all of our efforts on customers, products and business development. We appreciate the confidence in us that Fortress has shown, and we look forward to a mutually rewarding relationship. Finally, we are very grateful for the support that Nevada State Bank gave us during the three-plus years of our lending relationship with them, and we look forward to continuing our relationship on the treasury side.”
“Galaxy has demonstrated resilience and discipline through the challenges of COVID, and we believe the company is well-positioned to capitalize on opportunities for growth and value creation in the gaming space,” said Josh Pack, Fortress Managing Partner and co-CIO of its Credit business. “We are very pleased to provide Galaxy with a capital solution that will resolve litigation and related uncertainty, positioning the company for meaningful upside as the recovery from COVID closures continues.”

Galaxy Gaming Executes Settlement Agreement with Former Chairman and CEO Triangulum Partners LLC
The Settlement Agreement is conditioned upon the Company paying Triangulum and Saucier $39.1 million plus interest accrued at 2% per annum from May 6, 2021, through the date of actual payment. The Company has retained Macquarie Capital (USA) Inc. to assist it in raising funds for the settlement. The Settlement Agreement allows the Company until December 31, 2021, to complete its fundraising and pay the settlement amounts to Triangulum and Saucier.
The Settlement Agreement provides broad mutual releases to the Company, the Company’s officers and directors, Triangulum and Saucier related to all claims against each other. The parties agree to stay the litigation pending payment of the settlement funds. In addition, among other terms, Saucier and Triangulum have agreed not to compete with the Company for a period of five years from the date of payment of funds.
“The execution of this Settlement Agreement is a significant development for Galaxy,” stated Mark Lipparelli, Chairman of Galaxy’s Board of Directors. “We are active in our efforts to raise the funding necessary to complete our obligations under the Agreement and will provide updates, if any, as those plans develop. Our Board believes this is an appropriate settlement of the litigation between us and Mr. Saucier and his entity. Further, we are pleased to see steady progress in the Company’s results as our casino and online gaming partners emerge from the shutdowns associated with the COVID pandemic. We are hopeful calendar year 2022 will bring continued pandemic improvements coupled with the reduction of costly litigation expenses.”
Background
On May 6, 2019, the Company redeemed the shares of its common stock held by Triangulum (an entity controlled by Saucier) by a note in the amount of $39.1 million. As required, the Company made its annual interest only payments to Triangulum. Prior to the redemption, Triangulum held approximately 58% of the Company’s outstanding common stock. Also on May 6, 2019, the Company filed a lawsuit against Triangulum and Saucier. Shortly thereafter, Triangulum and Saucier countersued the Company and certain of its board members. The redemption and the litigation are described in more detail in the Company’s periodic SEC filings.

Executive Comments
“The COVID pandemic continued to affect our business in Q1,” stated Todd Cravens, Galaxy’s President and CEO. “Casinos in the UK, our largest brick-and-mortar market, were shuttered for the entire quarter, and we continued to see capacity limitations in other important markets. However, as was the case in Q4 2020, our iGaming business made up most of the difference. iGaming went live in Michigan in February, and volumes were very strong. We expect additional increases in activity when our live dealer clients open up there. In addition to iGaming, new installations of our games and progressives in new markets continue to add to the top line.”
Cravens added, “I am happy to see progress in Q1, and am looking forward to getting all our customers up and going, as well as bringing new clients into the Galaxy.”
“Despite the continued effects of COVID, we managed to make modest headway in Q1,” said Harry Hagerty, the Company’s CFO. “While revenue was slightly down versus Q1 of 2020, Adjusted EBITDA was up and we had positive cash flow. We are hopeful that COVID-related closures and limitations continue to recede through the remainder of 2021, allowing us to have normalized results in both the brick-and-mortar and online channels in 2022.”
Forward-Looking Statements
Certain statements in this release may constitute forward-looking statements, which involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Galaxy cautions readers that any forward-looking information is not a guarantee of future performance and that actual results could differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking information due to a number of factors, including those listed from time to time in reports that Galaxy files with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Non-GAAP Financial Information
Adjusted EBITDA includes adjustments to net income to exclude interest, income taxes, depreciation, amortization, share based compensation, foreign currency exchange loss, change in estimated fair value of interest rate swap liability and severance and other expenses related to litigation. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of performance defined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). However, adjusted EBITDA is used by management to evaluate our operating performance. Management believes that disclosure of the Adjusted EBITDA metric offers investors, regulators and other stakeholders a view of our operations in the same manner management evaluates our performance. When combined with U.S. GAAP results, management believes Adjusted EBITDA provides a comprehensive understanding of our financial results. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net income or to net cash provided by operating activities as a measure of operating results or of liquidity. It may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies, and it excludes financial information that some may consider important in evaluating our performance.
