Exhibit 1.01
Everi Holdings Inc.
Conflict Minerals Report
For the Year Ended December 31, 2018
This Conflict Minerals Report for the reporting period from January 1, 2018 to December 31, 2018 (this “Report”) is made pursuant to Rule 13p-1 (the “Rule”) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The Rule was adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) to implement reporting and disclosure requirements related to conflict minerals as directed by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010. The Rule requires public reporting companies to determine whether 3TG minerals (as defined below) are necessary to the functionality or production of products they manufacture, or contract for manufacture; and if so, to disclose annually whether any of those 3TG minerals originated in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (“DRC”) or countries that share an internationally-recognized border with the DRC (each, an “adjoining country”; DRC and adjoining countries, each, a “Covered Country”). The term “Conflict Minerals” means cassiterite, columbite-tantalite (coltan), gold, wolframite and their derivatives (tantalum, tin, and tungsten) (collectively, “3TG minerals”) originating from a Covered Country.
Company and Product Overview 
Unless otherwise specified, or the context otherwise indicates, all references to “Everi,” “we,” “us,” “our,” and the “Company” refer to Everi Holdings Inc. and its subsidiaries. Everi is a leading supplier of technology solutions for the casino gaming industry. We provide casino operators with a diverse portfolio of products, including innovative gaming machines that power the casino floor, business-to-consumer and business-to-business interactive activities, and casino operational and management systems that include comprehensive, end-to-end financial technology solutions, critical intelligence offerings, and gaming operations efficiency technology.
Everi Holdings reports its results of operations based on two operating segments: Games and FinTech.
Everi Games provides gaming operators products and services, including: (a) gaming machines primarily comprised of Class II and Class III slot machines placed under participation or fixed-fee lease arrangements or sold to casino customers, including TournEvent® terminals that allow operators to switch from in-revenue gaming to out-of-revenue tournaments; (b) system software, licenses, and ancillary equipment; and (c) tier one land-based game content to online social and real-money B2B customers via its Remote Game Server as well as online social “play for fun” casinos to B2C customers. In addition, Everi Games develops and manages the central determinant system for the video lottery terminals installed in the State of New York, and it also provides similar technology in certain tribal jurisdictions.
Everi FinTech provides gaming operators cash access and related products and services, including: (a) access to cash at gaming facilities via Automated Teller Machine cash withdrawals, credit card cash access transactions, point of sale debit card cash access transactions, and check verification and warranty services; (b) equipment that provides cash access and efficiency-related services; (c) self-service enrollment and loyalty card printing equipment; (d) products and services that improve credit decision making, automate cashier operations, and enhance patron marketing activities for gaming establishments; (e) compliance, audit, and data solutions; and (f) online payment processing solutions for gaming operators in states that offer intrastate, Internet-based gaming and lottery activities.
We manufacture, or contract for manufacture with third parties, our electronic gaming machines, kiosk and related products, cabinets, computer assemblies, screens, printers, bill validators, and acceptors and other wiring and harnesses (collectively, the “Equipment”). We have facilities in Austin, Texas and Las Vegas, Nevada, where we assemble the Equipment.
Reasonable Country of Origin Inquiry
We are an assembler of products and not involved with the mining and sourcing of the raw materials, including any potential 3TGs. The origin of 3TGs cannot be 3TG-containing derivatives. The smelters or refiners (“SORs”) of the 3TGs are consolidating points of raw ore and are in the best position in the total supply chain to ascertain the origin of the ores. Based on our assessment, we determined that the Equipment we manufactured, or contracted for manufacture, in 2018 may contain certain 3TGs that are necessary to the functionality or production of our finished goods; and therefore, are subject to the reporting obligations of the Rule and are covered by this Report.



1


To perform our reasonable country of origin inquiry (“RCOI”), we conducted a survey of our direct suppliers using the Responsible Minerals Initiative (“RMI”) Conflict Minerals Reporting Template (the “CMRT”) developed by the Responsible Business Alliance and the Global e-Sustainability Initiative. In the survey, we asked those suppliers: (i) whether the products they supply to us (or their components) contained 3TG minerals; and (ii) if they did, to provide information regarding the source of 3TG minerals contained in those products and components. As a downstream company, we relied on our suppliers to provide us with information about the source of 3TG minerals contained in the products and components they supplied to us.
We distributed the CMRT to our relevant, direct suppliers and received a response rate of approximately 97%. We excluded, as not relevant, those suppliers that: (i) did not provide us materials during the reporting period; or (ii) provided materials that did not contain 3TGs or were not utilized in the manufacture of our Equipment during the reporting period. Based on the responses we received from our relevant suppliers in connection with our RCOI, we concluded that we have insufficient information to reasonably determine either that: (i) no 3TG minerals used in our Equipment may have originated in a Covered Country; or (ii) any such Conflict Minerals originated from recycled or scrapped sources (as defined in Section 1, Item 1.01 (d)(6) of Form SD). Accordingly, we conducted additional diligence on the source and chain of custody of 3TGs used in the manufacture of our Equipment.
Source and Chain of Custody Due Diligence
Due Diligence Plan
We performed our source and chain of custody due diligence measures with guidance from the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High Risk Areas, Third Edition (as described below and including by using the Template), as tailored for “downstream” companies like ours, by performing the following steps:
Management processes and systems
We have a cross-functional team comprised of executives and experienced personnel with a demonstrated knowledge of our technology, products, and vendor relationships to support our source- and chain-of-custody due diligence. Our system of control and transparency consists of the CMRT and a review of the risks identified as a result of that process. In an effort to strengthen the engagement with our suppliers, we request smelter- and refiner-level information in connection with the CMRT. A list of these smelters, which were reported to us for the year ended December 31, 2018, is included in Annex I to this Report.
We include questions in our CMRT for prospective new suppliers that address the use of Conflict Minerals. In addition, we require suppliers that utilize in-scope materials to provide an affirmative answer regarding the use of 3TG minerals and to make certain representations that they will cooperate with our efforts to conduct appropriate due diligence and comply with the Rule. In addition, we integrate our Conflict Minerals reporting requirements into our internal control procedures for supplier qualification by: (i) incorporating identifiers with respect to vendors who provide products containing 3TG minerals; and (ii) providing the ability for employees to contact our ethics hotline to confidentially communicate any concerns regarding the circumstances surrounding the acquisition of supply chain materials from potentially conflicted sources.
Identify, assess, and respond to risks within our supply chain
We evaluate CMRT responses from our relevant direct suppliers with respect to the SORs utilized to process the minerals used in our Equipment throughout our supply chain. We utilize risk-based criteria to determine those relevant direct suppliers that warrant further due diligence, and follow up to clarify responses with suppliers that may be sourcing or processing 3TG minerals from a Covered Country. The risk-based criteria include, but are not limited to: (i) incomplete responses; (ii) apparent lack of supplier diligence; and (iii) inconsistencies in the data reported to us in the CMRT.
Support the development and implementation of independent third-party audits of SORs’ sourcing
As a downstream company, we do not have direct relationships with SORs that produce the 3TG minerals within our supply chain. Accordingly, we rely on the RMI’s list of conflict-free SORs and do not perform or direct audits of these entities’ supply chains with respect to 3TG minerals.
Report on supply chain due diligence
This Report is publicly available in the investor relations section of our corporate website at http://ir.everi.com/investor-relations/reports-and-filings/sec-filings/default.aspx and is filed with the SEC.

Due Diligence Implementation and Results
In connection with our commitment to monitor the due diligence approach, we continue to evaluate whether further inquiry of any of our relevant direct suppliers would result in information that may differ from, or be inconsistent with, any of the responses provided to our CMRT which may give us reason to believe that the products supplied to us were sourced from a Covered Country.
3TG minerals are necessary to the functionality of our Equipment.  Data provided to us by our relevant direct suppliers in response to our CMRT does not identify any Conflict Minerals within our supply chain; however, as a downstream company, we were unable to definitively determine that 100% of the 3TG minerals were sourced from internationally recognized and compliant source countries.
Steps to Improve Due Diligence
Below are the steps that we are, and will be, taking to improve the due diligence process and further mitigate any risk that 3TG minerals in our Equipment could benefit armed groups in the Covered Country:

•
Review our supply chain policy for clarity regarding minerals originating from conflict-affected and high risk areas;
•
Promote supplier partnerships that are outside of the DRC zone;
•
Enhance the use of tools that help automate our supplier due diligence procedures; and
•
Continue to make available Conflict Mineral educational materials to all our employees.
