EVERI HOLDINGS INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

In this filing, we refer to: (i) our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto as our “Financial Statements;” (ii) our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income as our “Statements of Operations;” and (iii) our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as our “Balance Sheets.”

1. BUSINESS

Everi Holdings Inc. (“Everi Holdings,” or “Everi”) is a holding company, the assets of which are the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of each of Everi Payments Inc. (“Everi FinTech” or “FinTech”) and Everi Games Holding Inc., which owns all of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of Everi Games Inc. (“Everi Games” or “Games”). Unless otherwise indicated, the terms the “Company,” “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to Everi Holdings together with its consolidated subsidiaries.

Everi is a supplier of entertainment and technology solutions for the casino and digital gaming industry. The Company develops game content and gaming machines, gaming systems and services for land-based and iGaming operators. The Company is also a provider of financial technology solutions that power the casino floor, including products and services that facilitate cash and cashless financial transactions, self-service player loyalty tools and applications, and regulatory and intelligence software.

Everi reports its financial performance, and organizes and manages its operations, across the following two business segments: (i) Games and (ii) Financial Technology Solutions (“FinTech”).

Everi Games provides gaming operators with gaming technology and entertainment products and services, including: (i) gaming machines, primarily comprising Class II and Class III slot machines placed under participation or fixed-fee lease arrangements or sold to casino customers; (ii) providing and maintaining the central determinant systems for the video lottery terminals (“VLTs”) installed in the State of New York and similar technology in certain tribal jurisdictions; and (iii) business-to-business (“B2B”) digital online gaming activities.

Everi FinTech provides gaming operators with financial technology products and services, including: (i) financial access and related services supporting digital, cashless and physical cash options across mobile, assisted and self-service channels; (ii) loyalty and marketing software and tools, regulatory and compliance (“RegTech”) software solutions, other information-related products and services, and hardware maintenance services; and (iii) associated casino patron self-service hardware that utilizes our financial access, software and other services. Our services operate as part of an end-to-end security suite to protect against cyber-related attacks and maintain the necessary secured environments to maintain compliance with applicable regulatory requirements. These solutions include: access to cash and cashless funding at gaming facilities via Automated Teller Machine (“ATM”) debit withdrawals, credit card financial access transactions, and point of sale (“POS”) debit card purchases at casino cages, kiosk and mobile POS devices; accounts for the CashClub Wallet, check warranty services, self-service ATMs and fully integrated kiosk and maintenance services; self-service loyalty tools and promotion management software; compliance, audit, and data software; casino credit data and reporting services; marketing and promotional offering subscription-based services; and other ancillary offerings.

Impact of the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (“COVID-19”) Pandemic

The COVID-19 pandemic has negatively impacted the global economy, disrupted global supply chains, lowered equity market valuations, created significant volatility in the financial markets, increased unemployment levels, and caused temporary, and in certain cases, permanent closures of many businesses. The initial impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic have begun to subside with certain aspects of the global economy, equity market valuations, and increased unemployment levels showing signs of recovery. The gaming industry was not immune to these factors as our casino customers closed their gaming establishments in the first quarter of 2020, with many beginning to reopen their operations over the remainder of 2020 and throughout 2021.

Since the onset of COVID-19, we have implemented measures to mitigate our exposure throughout the global pandemic. While there may be further uncertainty facing our customers as a result of COVID-19, we continue to evaluate our business strategies and the impacts of the global pandemic on our results of operations and financial condition and make business decisions to mitigate further risk. While gaming industry conditions have improved significantly in the first quarter of 2022 and year ended December 31, 2021, compared to 2020, it is unclear if the customer equipment purchases will consistently return to pre-COVID levels. Resurgences of COVID-19 and its variants could impact future customer operations or our own; however, we continue to monitor the impacts of the global pandemic and make adjustments to our business, accordingly.

Our revenues and liquidity for the first quarter of 2022 exceeded the first quarter of 2021, as nearly all of our casino customer locations have again reopened. With various limitations still in effect, we expect that demand and supply for our products and

8

services may be tempered in the short-term, to the extent gaming activity decreases at our customers’ locations, or fails to increase at expected rates, and to the extent our customers decide to continue to restrict their capital spending as a result of uncertainty in the industry, or that supply chain disruptions might impact customer deliveries or otherwise.

The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic also exacerbates the risks disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 (the “Annual Report”), including, but not limited to: our ability to generate revenues and, earn profits, our ability to service existing and attract new customers and maintain our overall competitiveness in the market; the potential for significant fluctuations in demand for our products and services; overall trends in the gaming industry impacting our business, and potential volatility in our stock price, among other concerns such as cybersecurity exposure.

2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by us pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Some of the information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although we believe the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair statement of results for the interim periods have been made. The results for the three months ended March 31, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full fiscal year. The Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the most recently filed Annual Report.

We evaluate the composition of our revenues to maintain compliance with SEC Regulation S-X Section 210.5-3, which requires us to separately present certain categories of revenues that exceed the quantitative threshold on our Statements of Operations.

Revenue Recognition

Overview

We evaluate the recognition of revenue based on the criteria set forth in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606 — Revenue from Contracts with Customers and ASC 842 — Leases, as appropriate. We recognize revenue upon transferring control of goods or services to our customers in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to receive in exchange for those goods or services. We enter into contracts with customers that include various performance obligations consisting of goods, services, or combinations of goods and services. Timing of the transfer of control varies based on the nature of the contract. We recognize revenue net of any sales and other taxes collected from customers, which are subsequently remitted to governmental authorities and are not included in revenues or operating expenses. We measure revenue based on the consideration specified in a contract with a customer and adjusted, as necessary.

Disaggregation of Revenues

We disaggregate revenues based on the nature and timing of the cash flows generated by such revenues as presented in “Note 18 — Segment Information.”

9

Contract Balances

Since our contracts may include multiple performance obligations, there is often a timing difference between cash collections and the satisfaction of such performance obligations and revenue recognition. Such arrangements are evaluated to determine whether contract assets and liabilities exist. We generally record contract assets when the timing of billing differs from when revenue is recognized due to contracts containing specific performance obligations that are required to be met prior to a customer being invoiced. We generally record contract liabilities when cash is collected in advance of us satisfying performance obligations, including those that are satisfied over a period of time. Balances of our contract assets and contract liabilities may fluctuate due to timing of cash collections.

The following table summarizes our contract assets and contract liabilities arising from contracts with customers (in thousands):

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2022		2021
Contract assets(1)
Balance at January 1 - current	$	9,927	$	9,240
Balance at January 1 - non-current	5,294		8,321
Total	15,221		17,561
Balance at March 31 - current	10,662		9,796
Balance at March 31 - non-current	3,852		7,299
Total	14,514		17,095
Decrease	$	(707)	$	(466)
Contract liabilities(2)

Balance at January 1 - non-current	377		289
Total	36,615		27,269
Balance at March 31 - current	38,877		27,887
Balance at March 31 - non-current	213		98
Total	39,090		27,985
Increase	$	2,475	$	716

(1)  The current portion of contract assets is included within trade and other receivables, net, and the non-current portion is included within other receivables in our Balance Sheets.

(2)  The current portion of contract liabilities is included within accounts payable and accrued expenses, and the non-current portion is included within other accrued expenses and liabilities in our Balance Sheets.

We recognized approximately $12.7 million and $10.5 million in revenue that was included in the beginning contract liability balance during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Games Revenues

Our products and services include electronic gaming devices, such as Native American Class II offerings and other electronic bingo products, Class III slot machine offerings, VLTs, B2B digital online gaming activities, accounting and central determinant systems, and other back office systems. We conduct our Games segment business based on results generated from the following major revenue streams: (i) Gaming Operations; (ii) Gaming Equipment and Systems; and (iii) Gaming Other.

We recognize our Gaming Operations revenue based on criteria set forth in ASC 842 or ASC 606, as applicable. The amount of lease revenue included in our Gaming Operations revenues and recognized under ASC 842 was approximately $47.1 million and $40.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

10

FinTech Revenues

Our FinTech products and services include solutions that we offer to gaming establishments to provide their patrons with financial access and funds-based services supporting digital, cashless and physical cash options across mobile, assisted and self-service channels along with related loyalty and marketing tools, and other information-related products and services. In addition, our services operate as part of an end-to-end security suite to protect against cyber-related attacks and maintain the necessary secured environments to maintain compliance with applicable regulatory requirements. These solutions include: access to cash and cashless funding at gaming facilities via ATM debit withdrawals, credit card financial access transactions, and POS debit card purchases at casino cages, kiosk and mobile POS devices; accounts for the CashClub Wallet, check warranty services, self-service ATMs and fully integrated kiosk and maintenance services; self-service loyalty tools and promotion management software; compliance, audit, and data software; casino credit data and reporting services; marketing and promotional offering subscription-based services; and other ancillary offerings. We conduct our FinTech segment business based on results generated from the following major revenue streams: (i) Financial Access Services; (ii) Software and Other; and (iii) Hardware.

Hardware revenues are derived from the sale of our financial access and loyalty kiosks and related equipment and are accounted for under ASC 606, unless such transactions meet the definition of a sales type or direct financing lease, which are accounted for under ASC 842. We did not have any material financial access kiosk and related equipment sales contracts accounted for under ASC 842 during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021.

Restricted Cash

Our restricted cash primarily consists of: (i) funds held in connection with certain customer agreements; (ii) funds held in connection with a sponsorship agreement; (iii) wide area progressive (“WAP”)-related restricted funds; and (iv) financial access activities related to cashless balances held on behalf of patrons. The following table provides a reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash reported within the Balance Sheets that sum to the total of the same such amounts shown in the statement of cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2022 (in thousands).

	Classification on our Balance Sheets	At March 31, 2022		At December 31, 2021
Cash and cash equivalents	Cash and cash equivalents	$	269,400	$	302,009
Restricted cash - current	Prepaid expenses and other current assets	1,534		1,616
Restricted cash - non-current	Other assets	101		101
Total		$	271,035	$	303,726

Allowance for Credit Losses

We continually evaluate the collectability of outstanding balances and maintain an allowance for credit losses related to our trade and other receivables and notes receivable that have been determined to have a high risk of uncollectability, which represents our best estimates of the current expected credit losses to be incurred in the future. To derive our estimates, we analyze historical collection trends and changes in our customer payment patterns, current and expected conditions and market trends along with our operating forecasts, concentration, and creditworthiness when evaluating the adequacy of our allowance for credit losses. In addition, with respect to our check warranty receivables, we are exposed to risk for the losses associated with warranted items that cannot be collected from patrons issuing these items. We evaluate the collectability of the outstanding balances and establish a reserve for the face amount of the current expected credit losses related to these receivables. Account balances are charged against the provision when the Company believes it is probable the receivable will not be recovered. The provision for doubtful accounts receivable is included within operating expenses and the check warranty loss reserves are included within financial access services cost of revenues in the Statements of Operations.

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired plus liabilities assumed arising from business combinations. We test for impairment annually on a reporting unit basis, at the beginning of our fourth fiscal quarter and between annual tests if events and circumstances indicate it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. The annual impairment test is completed using either: a qualitative “Step 0” assessment based on reviewing relevant events and circumstances; or a quantitative “Step 1” assessment, which determines the fair value of the reporting unit, using both an income approach that discounts future cash flows based on the estimated future results of our reporting units and a market approach that compares market multiples of comparable companies to determine whether an impairment exists. To the extent the carrying amount of a reporting unit is less than its estimated fair value, an impairment charge is recorded.

11

The evaluation of impairment of goodwill requires the use of estimates about future operating results. Changes in forecasted operations can materially affect these estimates, which could materially affect our results of operations and financial condition. The estimates of expected future cash flows require significant judgment and are based on assumptions we determined to be reasonable; however, they are unpredictable and inherently uncertain, including, estimates of future growth rates, operating margins and assumptions about the overall economic climate as well as the competitive environment within which we operate. There can be no assurance that our estimates and assumptions made for purposes of our impairment assessments as of the time of evaluation will prove to be accurate predictions of the future. If our assumptions regarding business plans, competitive environments, or anticipated growth rates are not correct, we may be required to record non-cash impairment charges in future periods, whether in connection with our normal review procedures periodically, or earlier, if an indicator of an impairment is present prior to such evaluation.

Our reporting units are identified as operating segments or one level below. Reporting units must: (i) engage in business activities from which they earn revenues and incur expenses; (ii) have operating results that are regularly reviewed by our segment management to ascertain the resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance; and (iii) have discrete financial information available. As of March 31, 2022, our reporting units included: (i) Games; (ii) Financial Access Services; (iii) Kiosk Sales and Services; (iv) Central Credit Services; (v) Compliance Sales and Services; and (vi) Loyalty Sales and Services.

Fair Values of Financial Instruments

The fair value of a financial instrument represents the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale. Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based upon relevant market information about the financial instrument.

The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, settlement receivables, short-term trade and other receivables, settlement liabilities, accounts payable, and accrued expenses approximate fair value due to the short-term maturities of these instruments. The fair value of the long-term trade and loans receivable is estimated by discounting expected future cash flows using current interest rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and remaining maturities. The fair value of long-term accounts payable is estimated by discounting the total obligation using the appropriate interest rates. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the fair value of trade and loans receivable approximated the carrying value due to contractual terms generally being slightly over 12 months. The fair value of our borrowings is estimated based on various inputs to determine a market price, such as: market demand and supply, size of tranche, maturity, and similar instruments trading in more active markets. The estimated fair value and outstanding balances of our borrowings are as follows (dollars in thousands):

	Level of Hierarchy	Fair Value		Outstanding Balance
March 31, 2022
$600 million New Term Loan	2	$	591,030	$	597,000
$400 million 2021 Unsecured Notes	2	$	378,000	$	400,000
December 31, 2021
$600 million New Term Loan	2	$	598,171	$	598,500
$400 million 2021 Unsecured Notes	2	$	404,000	$	400,000

Our borrowings’ fair values were determined using Level 2 inputs based on quoted market prices for these securities.

Recent Accounting Guidance Not Yet Adopted

As of March 31, 2022, we do not anticipate recently issued accounting guidance to have a significant future impact on our consolidated financial statements.

3. LEASES

We determine if a contract is, or contains, a lease at the inception, or modification, of a contract based on whether the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. Control over the use of an asset is predicated upon the notion that a lessee has both the right to (i) obtain substantially all of the economic benefit from the use of the asset; and (ii) direct the use of the asset.

Operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and liabilities are recognized based on the present value of minimum lease payments over the expected lease term at commencement date. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the expected lease term. Our lease arrangements have both lease and non-lease components, and we have elected the practical expedient to account for the lease and non-lease elements as a single lease.

Certain of our lease arrangements contain options to renew with terms that generally have the ability to extend the lease term to a range of approximately one to ten years. The exercise of lease renewal options is generally at our sole discretion. The expected lease terms include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise such option. The depreciable life of leased assets and leasehold improvements is limited by the expected term of such assets, unless there is a transfer of title or purchase option reasonably certain to be exercised.

Lessee

We enter into operating lease agreements for real estate purposes that generally consist of buildings for office space and warehouses for manufacturing purposes. Certain of our lease agreements consist of rental payments that are periodically adjusted for inflation. Our lease agreements do not contain material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. Our lease agreements do not generally provide explicit rates of interest; therefore, we use our incremental collateralized borrowing rate, which is based on a fully collateralized and fully amortizing loan with a maturity date the same as the length of the lease that is based on the information available at the commencement date to determine the present value of lease payments. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less (short-term) are not accounted for on our Balance Sheets. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, our finance leases were not material.

Lessor

We generate lease revenues primarily from our gaming operations activities, and the majority of our leases are month-to-month leases. Under these arrangements, we retain ownership of the electronic gaming machines (“EGMs”) installed at customer facilities. We receive recurring revenues based on a percentage of the net win per day generated by the leased gaming equipment or a fixed daily fee. Such revenues are generated daily and are limited to the lesser of the net win per day generated by the leased gaming equipment or the fixed daily fee and the lease payments that have been collected from the lessee. Certain of our leases have terms and conditions with options for a lessee to purchase the underlying assets. Refer to "Note 9 - Property and Equipment" for details of our rental pool assets cost and accumulated depreciation.

We did not have material sales transactions that qualified for sales-type lease accounting treatment during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021. Our interest income recognized in connection with sales-type leases executed in the prior periods was not material.

4. BUSINESS COMBINATIONS

We account for business combinations in accordance with ASC 805, which requires that the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed be recorded at their estimated fair values on the acquisition date separately from goodwill, which is the excess of the fair value of the purchase price over the fair values of these identifiable assets and liabilities. We include the results of operations of an acquired business as of the acquisition date.

On March 1, 2022 (the “Closing Date”), the Company acquired the stock of ecash Holdings Pty Limited and wholly-owned subsidiaries Global Payment Technologies Australia Pty Limited, and ACN 121 187 068 Pty Limited (collectively “ecash”), a privately owned, Australia-based developer and provider of innovative cash handling and financial payment solutions for the broader gaming industry in Australia, Asia, Europe, and the United States. The acquisition of ecash’s products and services represents a strategic extension of Everi’s current suite of financial technology solutions within the FinTech segment. The acquisition provides Everi with a complementary portfolio of new customer locations throughout Australia, the United States, and other geographies.

Under the terms of the stock purchase agreement, we paid the seller AUD$20 million (approximately USD$15 million) on the Closing Date of the transaction and we will pay an additional AUD$6.5 million one year following the Closing Date and another AUD$6.5 million two years following the Closing Date. In addition, we expect to pay approximately AUD$9.0 million for the excess net working capital within a year from the Closing Date.

15

Pursuant to the arrangement, there is an earn-out provision of up to AUD$10 million, to the extent certain growth targets are achieved. The payment, if any, is subject to certain employment restrictions and will be accounted for as compensation expense in accordance with GAAP.

The acquisition did not have a significant impact on our results of operations or financial condition for the three months ended March 31, 2022.

The total preliminary purchase consideration for ecash was as follows (in thousands, at fair value):

	Amount in USD
Purchase consideration
Cash consideration paid at closing	$	14,980
Cash consideration to be paid in subsequent periods	15,905
Total purchase consideration	$	30,885

The transaction was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting, which requires, among other things, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed be recognized at their respective fair values as of the acquisition date. The excess of the purchase price over those fair values was recorded as goodwill, which will be amortized over a period of 15 years for tax purposes. The estimates and assumptions used include the projected timing and amount of future cash flows and discount rates reflecting risk inherent in the future cash flows. The estimated fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed and resulting goodwill are subject to adjustment as the Company finalizes its purchase price accounting. The significant items for which a final fair value has not been determined include, but are not limited to: the valuation and estimated useful lives of intangible assets, deferred and unearned revenues, and deferred income taxes. We do not expect our fair value determinations to materially change; however, there may be differences between the amounts recorded at the Closing Date and the final fair value analysis, which we expect to complete no later than the first quarter of 2023.

The information below reflects the preliminary amounts of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the closing date of the transaction (in thousands):

	Amount in USD
Current assets	$	14,168
Property and equipment	1,435
Other intangible assets	11,600
Goodwill	10,661
Other assets	549
Total Assets	38,413
Accounts payable and accrued expenses	6,416
Other accrued expenses and liabilities	1,112
Total liabilities	7,528
Net assets acquired	$	30,885

16

Current assets acquired included approximately $2.8 million in cash. Trade receivables acquired of approximately $5.8 million were short-term in nature and considered to be collectible, and therefore, the carrying amounts of these assets represented their fair values. Inventory acquired of approximately $5.5 million consisted of raw materials and finished goods and was recorded at fair value based on the estimated net realizable value of these assets. Property, equipment, and leased assets acquired were not material in size or scope, and the carrying amounts of these assets approximated their fair values.

The following table summarizes preliminary values of acquired intangible assets (dollars in thousands):

	Useful Life (Years)	Estimated Fair Value (USD)
Other Intangible Assets
Trade name	3	$	700
Developed technology	3	3,600
Customer relationships	9	7,300
Total other intangible assets		$	11,600

The fair value of intangible assets was determined by applying the income approach. The financial results included in our Statements of Operations since the acquisition date and through March 31, 2022 reflected revenues of approximately $1.2 million and net income of approximately $0.2 million. We incurred acquisition-related costs of approximately $0.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022.

5. FUNDING AGREEMENTS

We have commercial arrangements with third-party vendors to provide cash for certain of our fund dispensing devices. For the use of these funds, we pay a usage fee on either the average daily balance of funds utilized multiplied by a contractually defined usage rate or the amounts supplied multiplied by a contractually defined usage rate. These fund usage fees, reflected as interest expense within the Statements of Operations, were approximately $1.0 million and $0.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. We are exposed to interest rate risk to the extent that the applicable rates increase.

Under these agreements, the currency supplied by third party vendors remains their sole property until the funds are dispensed. As these funds are not our assets, supplied cash is not reflected in our Balance Sheets. The outstanding balance of funds provided from the third parties were approximately $390.4 million and $401.8 million as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

Our primary commercial arrangement, the Contract Cash Solutions Agreement, as amended, is with Wells Fargo, N.A. (“Wells Fargo”). Wells Fargo provides us with cash up to $300 million with the ability to increase the amount as defined within the agreement or otherwise permitted by the vault cash provider. The term of the agreement expires on June 30, 2023 and will automatically renew for additional one-year periods unless either party provides a ninety-day written notice of its intent not to renew.

We are responsible for losses of cash in the fund dispensing devices under this agreement, and we self-insure for this type of risk. There were no material losses for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021.

6. TRADE AND OTHER RECEIVABLES

Trade and other receivables represent short-term credit granted to customers and long-term loans receivable in connection with our Games and FinTech equipment and compliance products. Trade and loans receivables generally do not require collateral. The balance of trade and loans receivables consists of outstanding balances owed to us by gaming establishments. Other receivables include income tax receivables and other miscellaneous receivables.

10. GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired plus liabilities assumed arising from business combinations. The balance of goodwill was approximately $695.4 million and $682.7 million at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. We have the following reporting units: (i) Games; (ii) Financial Access Services; (iii) Kiosk Sales and Services; (iv) Central Credit Services; (v) Compliance Sales and Services; and (vi) Loyalty Sales and Services.

In accordance with ASC 350 (“Intangibles—Goodwill and Other”), we test goodwill at the reporting unit level, which is identified as an operating segment or one level below, for impairment on an annual basis and between annual tests if events and circumstances indicate it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount.

We test our goodwill for impairment on October 1 each year, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. The annual impairment test is completed using either: a qualitative “Step 0” assessment based on reviewing relevant events and circumstances or a quantitative “Step 1” assessment, which determines the fair value of the reporting unit, using both an income approach that discounts future cash flows based on the estimated future results of our reporting units and a market approach that compares market multiples of comparable companies to determine whether or not any impairment exists. To the extent the carrying amount of a reporting unit is less than its estimated fair value, an impairment charge is recorded.

There was no impairment identified for our goodwill for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021.

Other Intangible Assets

Other intangible assets consist of the following (dollars in thousands):

New Credit Facilities

Our Senior Secured Credit Facilities consist of: (i) a seven-year $600 million senior secured term loan due 2028 issued at 99.75% of par (the “New Term Loan”); and (ii) a $125 million senior secured revolving credit facility due 2026, which was undrawn at closing (the “New Revolver” and together with the New Term Loan, the “New Credit Facilities”). The Company, as borrower, entered into the credit agreement dated as of August 3, 2021 (the “Closing Date”), among the Company, the lenders party thereto and Jefferies Finance LLC, as administrative agent, collateral agent, swing line lender and a letter of credit issuer (the “New Credit Agreement”).

The interest rate per annum applicable to the New Credit Facilities will be, at the Company’s option, either the Eurodollar rate with a 0.50% LIBOR floor plus a margin of 2.50% or the base rate plus a margin of 1.50%.

The New Revolver is available for general corporate purposes, including permitted acquisitions, working capital and the issuance of letters of credit. Borrowings under the New Revolver are subject to the satisfaction of customary conditions, including the absence of defaults and the accuracy of representations and warranties.

The Company is required to make periodic payments on the New Term Loan in an amount equal to 0.25% per quarter of the initial aggregate principal, with the final principal repayment installment on the maturity date. Interest is due in arrears on each interest payment date applicable thereto and at such other times as may be specified in the New Credit Agreement. As to any loan other than a base rate loan, the interest payment dates shall be the last day of each interest period applicable to such loan

and the maturity date (provided, however, that if any interest period for a Eurodollar Rate loan exceeds three months, the respective dates that fall every three months after the beginning of such interest period shall also be interest payment dates). As to any base rate loan, commencing on the last business day of December 2021, the interest payment dates shall be last business day of each of March, June, September and December and the maturity date.

Voluntary prepayments of the New Term Loan and the New Revolver and voluntary reductions in the unused commitments are permitted in whole or in part, in minimum amounts as set forth in the New Credit Agreement governing the New Credit Facilities, with prior notice, and without premium or penalty, except that certain refinancings or repricings of the New Term Loan within six months after the Closing Date will be subject to a prepayment premium of 1.00% of the principal amount repaid.

The New Credit Agreement contains certain covenants that, among other things, limit the Company’s ability, and the ability of certain of its subsidiaries, to incur additional indebtedness, sell assets or consolidate or merge with or into other companies, pay dividends or repurchase or redeem capital stock, make certain investments, issue capital stock of subsidiaries, incur liens, prepay, redeem or repurchase subordinated debt, and enter into certain types of transactions with its affiliates. The New Credit Agreement also requires the Company, together with its subsidiaries, to comply with a maximum consolidated secured leverage ratio of 4.25:1.00 as of the measurement date.

The weighted average interest rate on the New Term Loan was 3.00% for the three months ended March 31, 2022.

Senior Unsecured Notes

Our Senior Unsecured Notes (the “2021 USN”) had an outstanding balance of approximately $400.0 million as of March 31, 2022, for which interest accrues at a rate of 5.00% per annum and is payable semi-annually in arrears on each January 15 and July 15.

Compliance with Debt Covenants

We were in compliance with the covenants and terms of the New Credit Facilities and the Senior Unsecured Notes as of March 31, 2022.

13. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

We are involved in various legal proceedings in the ordinary course of our business. While we believe resolution of the claims brought against us, both individually and in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse impact on our financial condition or results of operations, litigation of this nature is inherently unpredictable. Our views on these legal proceedings, including those described below, may change in the future. We intend to vigorously defend against these actions, and ultimately believe we should prevail.

Legal Contingencies

We evaluate matters and record an accrual for legal contingencies when it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount or range of the loss may be reasonably estimated. We evaluate legal contingencies at least quarterly and, as appropriate, establish new accruals or adjust existing accruals to reflect: (i) the facts and circumstances known to us at the time, including information regarding negotiations, settlements, rulings, and other relevant events and developments; (ii) the advice and analyses of counsel; and (iii) the assumptions and judgment of management. Legal costs associated with such proceedings are expensed as incurred. Due to the inherent uncertainty of legal proceedings as a result of the procedural, factual, and legal issues involved, the outcomes of our legal contingencies could result in losses in excess of amounts we have accrued.

We did not have any material legal matters that were accrued for as of March 31, 2022. We received service of process on one (1) new legal matter (Mary Parrish matter) described below.

FACTA-related matter:

Geraldine Donahue, et al. v. Everi Payments Inc., et al. (“Donahue”) is a putative class action matter filed on December 12, 2018, in the Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois County Division, Chancery Division. The original defendant was dismissed and Everi Holdings and FinTech (the “Defendants”) were substituted as the defendants on April 22, 2019. The plaintiff, on behalf of herself and others similarly situated, alleges that Everi Holdings and Everi FinTech (i) have violated certain provisions of FACTA by their failure, as agent to the original defendant, to properly truncate patron credit card numbers when printing financial access receipts as required under FACTA, and (ii) have been unjustly enriched through the charging of service fees for transactions conducted at the original defendant’s facilities. The plaintiff sought an award of statutory damages, attorneys’ fees,

22

and costs. The parties settled this matter on a nationwide class basis. On December 3, 2020, the court entered the Final Order and Judgment approving the settlement and dismissing all claims asserted against the Defendants with prejudice. Everi Holdings and Everi FinTech have paid all funds required pursuant to the settlement. Distributions were made to class members and remaining unclaimed funds were distributed to nonprofit charitable organizations in compliance with the court’s October 4, 2021, Defense counsel for Everi Payments Inc. has asked the court provide a final closing order/entry as this matter is now closed.

NRT matter:

NRT Technology Corp., et al. v. Everi Holdings Inc., et al. is a civil action filed on April 30, 2019 against Everi Holdings and Everi FinTech in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware by NRT Technology Corp. and NRT Technology, Inc., alleging monopolization of the market for unmanned, integrated kiosks in violation of federal antitrust laws, fraudulent procurement of patents on functionality related to such unmanned, integrated kiosks and sham litigation related to prior litigation brought by Everi FinTech (operating as Global Cash Access Inc.) against the plaintiff entities. The plaintiffs are seeking compensatory damages, treble damages, and injunctive and declaratory relief. Discovery is closed and this case is currently set for trial on September 26, 2022. We are currently unable to determine the probability of the outcome or estimate the range of reasonably possible loss, if any, in this matter.

Zenergy Systems, LLC matter:

Zenergy Systems, LLC v. Everi Payments Inc. is a civil action filed on May 29, 2020, against Everi FinTech in the United States District Court for the District of Nevada, Clark County by Zenergy Systems, LLC, alleging breach of contract, breach of a non-disclosure agreement, breach of the covenant of good faith and fair dealing, and breach of a confidential relationship related to a contract with Everi FinTech that expired in November 2019. The plaintiff is seeking compensatory and punitive damages. Everi FinTech has counterclaimed against Zenergy alleging breach of contract, breach of implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing, and for declaratory relief. The case is set for trial in June 2022. We are currently unable to determine the probability of the outcome or estimate the range of reasonably possible loss, if any, in this matter.

Sadie Saavedra matter:

Sadie Saavedra, et al. v. Everi Payments Inc., et al. is a civil action filed on August 30, 2021, against Everi Holdings and Everi FinTech in the United States District Court, Central District of California (Western Division) by Sadie Saavedra, individually and on behalf of a class of similarly situated individuals, alleging violations of the Unfair Competition Law (California Business & Professions Code § 17200) and unjust enrichment. The plaintiffs allege that certain of Everi’s ATMs screen are deceptive and designed to maximize the number of transaction fees and mislead consumers into incurring fees for additional transactions. The plaintiffs are seeking restitution, injunctive relief and attorneys’ fees. On April 11, 2022, the Court entered an Order granting the Motion to Dismiss on behalf of Everi Holdings and Everi FinTech. It is unclear at this time if the plaintiff will appeal the Court’s Order and we are currently unable to determine the probability of the outcome or estimate the range of reasonably possible loss, if any, in this matter.

Sightline Payments matter:

Sightline Payments LLC v. Everi Holdings Inc., et al. is a civil action filed on September 30, 2021, against Everi Holdings, Everi FinTech, Everi Games Holding Inc., and Everi Games in the United States District Court, Western District of Texas (Waco Division) by Sightline Payments LLC alleging patent infringement in violation of 35 U.S.C. § 271 et seq. The plaintiff’s complaint alleges that Everi’s CashClub Wallet product infringes on certain patents owned by the plaintiff. The plaintiff is seeking compensatory damages. Everi filed a Motion to Dismiss or Transfer for Lack of Venue. The court has not yet set a hearing date for the pending motion. We are in the early stages of litigation and currently unable to determine the probability of the outcome or estimate the range of reasonably possible loss, if any, in this matter.

Mary Parrish matter:

Mary Parrish v. Everi Holdings Inc., et al. is a civil action filed on December 28, 2021, against Everi Holdings and Everi FinTech in the District Court of Nevada, Clark County by Mary Parrish alleging violation of the Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act (FACTA) amendment to the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA). Plaintiff’s complaint alleges she received a printed receipt for cash access services performed at an Everi Payments’ ATM which displayed more than four (4) digits of the account number. Plaintiff seeks statutory damages, punitive damages, injunctive relief, attorneys’ fees, and other relief as the court deems proper. Everi filed a Petition for Removal to the United States District Court, District of Nevada. Thereafter, Everi filed a Motion to Dismiss, which is pending in the United States District Court. Due to the early stages of the litigation, we are

23

currently unable to estimate the probability of the outcome of this matter or reasonably estimate the range of possible damages, if any.

In addition, we have commitments with respect to certain lease obligations discussed in “Note 3 — Leases” and installment payments under our purchase agreements discussed in “Note 4 — Business Combinations.”

14. STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

On February 28, 2020, our Board of Directors authorized and approved a new share repurchase program granting us the authority to repurchase an amount not to exceed $10.0 million of outstanding Company common stock with no minimum number of shares that the Company is required to repurchase. This repurchase program commenced in the first quarter of 2020 and authorizes us to buy our common stock from time to time in open market transactions, block trades or in private transactions in accordance with trading plans established in accordance with Rules 10b5-1 and 10b-18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or by a combination of such methods, including compliance with the Company’s finance agreements. The share repurchase program is subject to available liquidity, general market and economic conditions, alternate uses for the capital and other factors, and may be suspended or discontinued at any time without prior notice. In light of COVID-19, we have suspended our share repurchase program. There were no share repurchases during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

15. WEIGHTED AVERAGE SHARES OF COMMON STOCK

The weighted average number of common stock shares outstanding used in the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share is as follows (in thousands):

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2022	2021
Weighted average shares
Weighted average number of common shares outstanding - basic	91,408	86,984
Potential dilution from equity awards(1)	10,063	10,984
Weighted average number of common shares outstanding - diluted(1)	101,471	97,968

(1) There were no shares that were anti-dilutive under the treasury stock method for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

16. SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION

Equity Incentive Awards

Generally, we grant the following types of awards: (i) restricted stock units with either time- or performance-based criteria; (ii) time-based options; and (iii) market-based options. We estimate forfeiture amounts based on historical patterns.

A summary of award activity is as follows (in thousands):

	Stock Options	Restricted Stock Units
Outstanding, December 31, 2021	7,073	3,540
Granted	—	25
Exercised options or vested shares	(164)	(61)
Canceled or forfeited	—	(13)
Outstanding, March 31, 2022	6,909	3,491

There are approximately 5.1 million awards of our common stock available for future equity grants under our existing equity incentive plans as of March 31, 2022.

24

17. INCOME TAXES

The income tax provision for the three months ended March 31, 2022, reflected an effective income tax rate of 23.6%, which was greater than the statutory federal rate of 21.0%, primarily due to state taxes and an accrual for foreign withholding tax, partially offset by both a research credit and the benefit from stock option exercises. The income tax provision for the three months ended March 31, 2021 reflected an effective income tax rate of 5.5%, which was less than the statutory federal rate of 21.0%, primarily due to a decrease in our valuation allowance for our deferred tax assets and the benefit from both stock option exercises and from a research credit.

We have analyzed filing positions in all of the federal, state, and foreign jurisdictions where we are required to file income tax returns, as well as all open tax years in these jurisdictions. As of March 31, 2022, we recorded approximately $2.2 million of unrecognized tax benefits, all of which would impact our effective tax rate, if recognized. We do not anticipate that our unrecognized tax benefits will materially change within the next 12 months. We have not accrued any penalties and interest for our unrecognized tax benefits. We may, from time to time, be assessed interest or penalties by tax jurisdictions, although any such assessments historically have been minimal and immaterial to our financial results. Our policy for recording interest and penalties associated with audits and unrecognized tax benefits is to record such items as a component of income tax in our Statements of Operations.

18. SEGMENT INFORMATION

Operating segments are components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision-making group (the “CODM”). Our CODM generally consists of the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer. Our CODM allocates resources and measures profitability based on our operating segments, which are managed and reviewed separately, as each represents products and services that can be sold separately to our customers. Our segments are monitored by management for performance against our internal forecasts.

We have reported our financial performance based on our segments in both the current and prior periods. Our CODM determined that our operating segments for conducting business are: (i) Games and (ii) FinTech:

•Everi Games primarily provides gaming operators with gaming technology products and services, including: (i) gaming machines, primarily comprising Class II and Class III slot machines placed under participation or fixed-fee lease arrangements or sold to casino customers; (ii) provision and maintenance of the central determinant systems for the VLTs installed in the State of New York and similar technology in certain tribal jurisdictions; and (iii) B2B digital online gaming activities.

•Everi FinTech provides gaming operators with financial technology and entertainment products and services, including: (i) financial access and related services supporting digital, cashless and physical cash options across mobile, assisted and self-service channels; (ii) loyalty and marketing software and tools, RegTech software solutions, other information-related products and services, and hardware maintenance services; and (iii) associated casino patron self-service hardware that utilizes our financial access, software and other services.

Corporate overhead expenses have been allocated to the segments either through specific identification or based on a reasonable methodology. In addition, we record depreciation and amortization expenses to the business segments.

Our business is predominantly domestic with no specific regional concentrations and no significant assets in foreign locations.

19. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Acquisition

The Company acquired the stock of Intuicode Gaming Corporation (“Intuicode”), a privately owned game development and engineering firm focused on Historical Horse Racing (“HHR”) games, effective on April 30, 2022.

The acquisition of Intuicode provides Everi with additional HHR expertise that will help the Company accelerate its entry into and growth in the expanding HHR market that will benefit the Games segment.

Under the terms of the stock purchase agreement, the acquisition cost includes an initial payment of $12.5 million, with two additional payments based on future revenue to be made on each of the first and second anniversaries of the acquisition's closing in 2023 and 2024, which is expected to increase the total consideration to be between $22 million and $27 million. Everi expects to fund the total purchase price from existing cash on hand and future cash flow.

This transaction will be accounted for as a business combination under the acquisition method of accounting. The acquisition is not expected to have a material impact on our results of operations or financial condition.

27

Share Repurchase Program

On May 4, 2022, our Board of Directors authorized and approved a new share repurchase program in an amount not to exceed $150 million pursuant to which we may purchase outstanding Company common stock in open market or privately negotiated transactions over a period of eighteen (18) months through November 4, 2023, in accordance with Company and regulatory policies and trading plans established in accordance with Rules 10b5-1 and 10b-18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The actual number of shares to be purchased will depend upon market conditions and is subject to available liquidity, general market and economic conditions, alternative uses for the capital and other factors. All shares purchased will be held in the Company’s treasury for possible future use. As of March 31, 2022, Everi had approximately 91.5 million shares issued and outstanding, net of 25.7 million shares held in the Company’s treasury. There is no minimum number of shares that the Company is required to repurchase, and the program may be suspended or discontinued at any time without prior notice. This new repurchase program supersedes and replaces, in its entirety, the previous share repurchase program.

Overview

Everi is a leading supplier of imaginative entertainment and trusted technology solutions for the casino and digital gaming industry. Everi’s mission is to lead the gaming industry through the power of people, imagination and technology. Focused on player engagement and assisting our casino customers operate more efficiently, the Company develops entertaining game content and gaming machines, gaming systems and services for land-based and iGaming operators. The Company is also a preeminent and comprehensive provider of trusted financial technology solutions that power the casino floor while improving operational efficiencies and fulfilling regulatory compliance requirements, including products and services that facilitate convenient and secure cash and cashless financial transactions, self-service player loyalty tools and applications, and regulatory and intelligence software.

Everi reports its financial performance, and organizes and manages its operations, across the following two business segments: (i) Games and (ii) Financial Technology Solutions (“FinTech”).

Everi Games provides gaming operators with gaming technology and entertainment products and services, including: (i) gaming machines, primarily comprising Class II and Class III slot machines placed under participation or fixed-fee lease arrangements or sold to casino customers; (ii) providing and maintaining the central determinant systems for the video lottery terminals (“VLTs”) installed in the State of New York and similar technology in certain tribal jurisdictions; and (iii) business-to-business (“B2B”) digital online gaming activities.

Everi FinTech provides gaming operators with financial technology products and services, including: (i) financial access and related services supporting digital, cashless and physical cash options across mobile, assisted and self-service channels; (ii) loyalty and marketing software and tools, regulatory and compliance (“RegTech”) software solutions, other information-related products and services, and hardware maintenance services; and (iii) associated casino patron self-service hardware that utilizes our financial access, software and other services.

Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic

The COVID-19 pandemic has negatively impacted the global economy, disrupted global supply chains, lowered equity market valuations, created significant volatility in the financial markets, increased unemployment levels, and caused temporary, and in certain cases, permanent closures of many businesses. The initial impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic have begun to subside with certain aspects of the global economy, equity market valuations, and increased unemployment levels showing signs of recovery. The gaming industry was not immune to these factors as our casino customers closed their gaming establishments in the first quarter of 2020, with many beginning to reopen their operations over the remainder of 2020 and throughout 2021.

Since the onset of COVID-19, we have implemented measures to mitigate our exposure throughout the global pandemic. While there may be further uncertainty facing our customers as a result of COVID-19, we continue to evaluate our business strategies and the impacts of the global pandemic on our results of operations and financial condition and make business decisions to mitigate further risk. While gaming industry conditions have improved significantly in the first quarter of 2022 and year ended December 31, 2021, compared to 2020, it is unclear if the customer equipment purchases will consistently return to pre-COVID levels. Resurgences of COVID-19 and its variants could impact future customer operation or our own; however, we continue to monitor the impacts of the global pandemic and make adjustments to our business, accordingly.

Our revenues and liquidity for the first quarter of 2022 exceeded the first quarter of 2021, as nearly all of our casino customer locations have again reopened. With various limitations still in effect, we expect that demand and supply for our products and services may be tempered in the short-term, to the extent gaming activity decreases at our customers’ locations, or fails to increase at expected rates, and to the extent our customers decide to continue to restrict their capital spending as a result of uncertainty in the industry, or that supply chain disruptions might impact customer deliveries or otherwise.

The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic also exacerbates the risks disclosed in our Annual Report, including, but not limited to: our ability to generate revenues and, earn profits, our ability to service existing and attract new customers and maintain our overall competitiveness in the market; the potential for significant fluctuations in demand for our products and services; overall

31

trends in the gaming industry impacting our business, and potential volatility in our stock price, among other concerns such as cybersecurity exposure.

Additional Items Impacting Comparability of Results of Operations

Our Financial Statements included in this report reflect the following additional items impacting the comparability of results of operations:

•In 2021, we decreased our valuation allowance for our deferred tax assets by approximately $67.9 million, of which $63.5 million was released during the fourth quarter of 2021, due to the removal of the full valuation allowance on our federal and certain states deferred tax assets.

•During the third quarter of 2021, we completed a refinancing of our prior credit facilities and entered into a credit agreement and a letter of credit (the “New Credit Agreement”). The New Credit Agreement provides for: (i) a seven-year $600 million senior secured term loan due 2028 issued at 99.75% of par (the “New Term Loan”); and (ii) a $125 million senior secured revolving credit facility due 2026, which was undrawn at closing (the “New Revolver” and together with the New Term Loan, the “New Credit Facilities”). The fees associated with the New Credit Facilities were approximately $13.9 million, which included discounts of approximately $1.5 million.

•During the third quarter of 2021, we completed a refinancing of our 7.50% senior unsecured notes due in 2025 (the “2017 Unsecured Notes”) with an offering of $400 million in aggregate principal, issued at par, of 5.00% senior unsecured notes due 2029 (the “2021 Unsecured Notes”). The fees associated with the 2021 Unsecured Notes included debt issuance costs of approximately $5.9 million.

•During the third quarter of 2021, in connection with these refinancing and repayment activities, the total fees were approximately $40.6 million, comprised of approximately $20.8 million of early redemption penalties and make-whole interest associated with the prior debt instruments and approximately $19.8 million of capitalized debt issuance costs attributable to the new debt instruments.

•During the third quarter of 2021, in connection with these refinancing and repayment activities, we recorded a loss on extinguishment of debt of approximately $34.4 million, comprised of cash charges of approximately $20.8 million for prepayment penalties and make-whole interest and non-cash charges of approximately $13.6 million related to the write-off of unamortized debt issuance costs and discounts associated with the prior credit facility (the “Prior Term Loan”), the prior incremental term loan facility (the “Prior Incremental Term Loan”) and the 2017 Unsecured Notes.

As a result of these events, together with the impacts of COVID-19, our results of operations and earnings per share in the periods covered by our Financial Statements may not be directly comparable.

We continued to experience a certain level of recovery from the global pandemic, for the three months ended March 31, 2022, and as a result, our revenues, costs and expenses were stronger in the current year period, as compared to the same period in the prior year, which were negatively impacted by certain casino closures that again occurred in the first quarter of 2021.

Revenues

Total revenues increased by approximately $36.5 million, or 26%, to approximately $175.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, as compared to the same period in the prior year. This was primarily due to the higher Games and FinTech revenues described below.

Games revenues increased by approximately $22.2 million, or 29%, to approximately $98.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, as compared to the same period in the prior year. This was primarily due to an increase in both the total number of units in our installed base and the average daily win per unit, particularly associated with a greater mix of premium units from our gaming operations revenues along with an increased customer base in our digital online gaming activities. In addition, we had an increase in the number of machines sold from our gaming equipment revenues.

FinTech revenues increased by approximately $14.3 million, or 23%, to approximately $77.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, as compared to the same period in the prior year. This was primarily due to contributions that included: (i) an increase in both transaction and dollar volumes in base, new and renewed business from our financial access services revenues; (ii) contributions from the newly acquired Australian cash handling and financial payment solutions company, ecash; and (iii) an increase in unit sales of our kiosks.

Costs and Expenses

Total costs and expenses increased by approximately $24.1 million, or 24%, to approximately $123.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, as compared to the same period in the prior year. This was primarily due to higher Games and FinTech costs and expenses described below.

Games cost of revenues increased by approximately $7.7 million, or 51%, to approximately $22.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, as compared to the same period in the prior year. This was primarily due to the additional variable costs associated with the higher unit sales from our gaming equipment and systems revenues.

FinTech cost of revenues increased by approximately $2.5 million, or 39%, to approximately $9.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, as compared to the same period in the prior year. This was primarily due to the additional variable costs associated with the higher unit sales from our hardware revenues, as well as higher warranty expense from our check warranty solutions from our financial access services.

Operating expenses increased by approximately $11.8 million, or 31%, to approximately $49.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, as compared to the same period in the prior year. This was primarily due to higher payroll and related expenses to support the growth of our operations, including higher employee travel cost resulting from more normalized operations of our customers in our Games and FinTech segments. In addition, the increase was associated with increased legal expenses due to ongoing litigation and legal costs incurred in connection with acquisition activity during the quarter.

Research and development expenses increased by approximately $4.1 million, or 49%, to approximately $12.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, as compared to the same period in the prior year. This increase was primarily the result of the growth in our operations and the continued investment in new products in our Games and FinTech segments.

Depreciation expense decreased by approximately $1.0 million, or 6%, to approximately $15.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, as compared to the same period in the prior year, as capital spending has been reduced resulting in a lower asset base in our Games segment.

34

Amortization expense decreased by approximately $1.1 million, or 7%, to approximately $13.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, as compared to the same period in the prior year. This was primarily due to intangible assets recorded in prior years being fully amortized in our Games segment.

Primarily as a result of the factors described above, our operating income increased by approximately $12.4 million, or 31%, as compared to the same period in the prior year. The operating income margin was 30% for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to 29% for the same period in the prior year.

Interest expense, net of interest income, decreased by approximately $7.1 million, or 39%, to approximately $11.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, as compared to the same period in the prior year. This was primarily due to interest savings achieved from a refinancing of our prior credit facilities and unsecured note in the third quarter of 2021 that resulted in a lower amount of principal outstanding and a lower borrowing rate.

The income tax provision was $9.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, an increase of approximately $8.5 million, as compared to $1.2 million for the same period in the prior year. The income tax provision reflected an effective income tax rate of 23.6% for the three months ended March 31, 2022, which was greater than the statutory federal rate of 21.0%, primarily due to state taxes and an accrual for foreign withholding tax, partially offset by both a research credit and the benefit from stock option exercises. The income tax provision reflected an effective income tax rate of 5.5% for the same period in the prior year, which was less than the statutory federal rate of 21.0%, primarily due to a decrease in our valuation allowance due to book income during the period and the benefit from both stock option exercises and from a research credit.

Primarily as a result of the factors described above, we had net income of approximately $31.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. We had net income of approximately $20.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021.

Critical Accounting Estimates 

The preparation of our financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect our reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities in our Financial Statements. The SEC has defined critical accounting estimates as those that involve a significant level of estimation uncertainty and have had or are reasonably likely to have a material impact on the financial condition or results of operations of the registrant.

There were no material changes to our critical accounting estimates as compared to those disclosed in our Annual Report.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview

The following table presents an unaudited reconciliation of cash and cash equivalents per GAAP to net cash position and net cash available (in thousands):

	At March 31,		At December 31
	2022		2021
Balance sheet data
Total assets	$	1,616,022	$	1,635,650
Total borrowings	$	980,642	$	981,525
Total stockholders’ equity	$	211,712	$	174,500
Cash available
Cash and cash equivalents	$	269,400	$	302,009
Settlement receivables	60,348		89,275
Settlement liabilities	(208,491)		(291,861)
Net cash position(1)	121,257		99,423
Undrawn revolving credit facility	125,000		125,000
Net cash available(1)	$	246,257	$	224,423

(1)  Non-GAAP measure. In order to enhance investor understanding of our cash balance, we are providing in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q Net Cash Position and Net Cash Available, which are not measures of our financial performance or position under GAAP. Accordingly, these measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for GAAP measures, and should be read in conjunction with our balance sheets prepared in accordance with GAAP. We define our (i) Net Cash Position as cash and cash equivalents plus settlement receivables less settlement liabilities; and (ii) Net Cash Available as Net Cash Position plus undrawn amounts available under our Revolving Credit Facility. Our Net Cash Position and Net Cash Available change substantially based upon the timing of our receipt of funds for settlement receivables and payments we make to customers for our settlement liabilities. We present these non-GAAP measures as we monitor these amounts in connection with forecasting of cash flows and future cash requirements, both on a short-term and long-term basis.

Cash Resources

As of March 31, 2022, our cash balance, cash flows, and line of credit are expected to be sufficient to meet our recurring operating commitments and to fund our planned capital expenditures on both a short- and long-term basis. Cash and cash equivalents at March 31, 2022 included cash in non-U.S. jurisdictions of approximately $22.1 million. Generally, these funds are available for operating and investment purposes within the jurisdiction in which they reside, and we may from time to time consider repatriating these foreign funds to the United States, subject to potential withholding tax obligations, based on operating requirements.

We expect that cash provided by operating activities will also be sufficient for our operating and debt servicing needs during the foreseeable future on both a short- and long-term basis. In addition, we have sufficient borrowings available under our senior secured revolving credit facility to meet further funding requirements. We monitor the financial strength of our lenders on an ongoing basis using publicly available information. Based upon available information, we believe our lenders should be able to honor their commitments under the Credit Agreement (defined in “Note 12 — Long-term Debt”).

36

Sources and Uses of Cash

The following table presents a summary of our cash flow activity (in thousands):

	Three Months Ended March 31,				$ Change
	2022		2021		2022 vs 2021
Cash flow activities
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	5,274	$	111,606	$	(106,332)
Net cash used in investing activities	(36,900)		(29,955)		(6,945)
Net cash (used in) provided by financing activities	(1,201)		1,799		(3,000)
Effect of exchange rates on cash and cash equivalents	136		(120)		256
Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash
Net (decrease) increase for the period	(32,691)		83,330		(116,021)
Balance, beginning of the period	303,726		252,349		51,377
Balance, end of the period	$	271,035	$	335,679	$	(64,644)

Cash flows provided by operating activities decreased by approximately $106.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, as compared to the same period in the prior year. This was primarily attributable to changes in working capital associated with settlement receivables and liabilities from our FinTech segment, partially offset by net income earned in our Games and FinTech segments.

Cash flows used in investing activities increased by approximately $6.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, as compared to the same period in the prior year. This was primarily attributable to acquisition activity in our FinTech segment and an increase in capital expenditures in our Games and FinTech segments.

Cash flows used in financing activities increased by approximately $3.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, as compared to the same period in the prior year. This was attributable to lower option exercise activities and the repayment of our New Term Loan.

Long-Term Debt

Our New Revolver remained fully undrawn as of March 31, 2022.

For additional information regarding our credit agreement and other debt as well as interest rate risk refer to Part I, Item 3: Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk, “Note 12 — Long-Term Debt” in Part I, Item 1: Financial Statements.

Contractual Obligations

There were no material changes to our commitments under contractual obligations as compared to those disclosed in our Annual Report, other than an increase to certain purchase obligations of approximately $41.3 million from those disclosed in our Annual Report and obligations discussed in “Note 3 — Leases,” “Note 4 — Business Combinations,” and “Note 12 — Long-Term Debt” in Part I, Item 1: Financial Statements. We expect that cash provided by operating activities will be sufficient to meet such obligations during the foreseeable future.

We are involved in various legal proceedings in the ordinary course of our business. While we believe resolution of the claims brought against us, both individually and in aggregate, will not have a material adverse impact on our financial condition or results of operations, litigation of this nature is inherently unpredictable. Our views on these legal proceedings, including those described in “Note 13 — Commitments and Contingencies” in Part I, Item 1: Financial Statements, may change in the future. We intend to vigorously defend against these actions, and ultimately believe we should prevail.

37

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

In the normal course of business, we have commercial arrangements with third-party vendors to provide cash for certain of our ATMs. For the use of these funds, we pay a cash usage fee on either the average daily balance of funds utilized multiplied by a contractually defined cash usage rate or the amounts supplied multiplied by a contractually defined cash usage rate. These cash usage fees, reflected as interest expense within the Statements of Operations, were approximately $1.0 million and $0.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The cash usage fees were higher in the current reporting period as compared to the same period in the prior year as a result of increased funds dispensing volumes at our customer locations as the operational impacts from the pandemic began to lessen. We are exposed to interest rate risk to the extent that the applicable federal funds rate increases.

Under these agreements, the currency supplied by third-party vendors remain their sole property until the funds are dispensed. As these funds are not our assets, supplied cash is not reflected on our Balance Sheets. The outstanding balances of funds provided by the third-party vendors were approximately $390.4 million and $401.8 million as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

Our primary commercial arrangement, the Contract Cash Solutions Agreement, as amended, with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. provides us with cash in the maximum amount of $300 million with the ability to increase the amount as defined within the agreement or otherwise permitted by the vault cash provider. The agreement currently expires on June 30, 2023 and will automatically renew for additional one-year periods unless either party provides a ninety-day written notice of its intent not to renew.

We are responsible for any losses of cash in the fund dispensing devices under this agreement and we self-insure for this risk. We incurred no material losses related to this self-insurance for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

There have been no material changes in our reported market risks or risk management policies since the filing of our Annual Report.

In the normal course of business, we are exposed to foreign currency exchange risk. We operate and conduct business in foreign countries and, as a result, are exposed to movements in foreign currency exchange rates. Our exposure to foreign currency exchange risk related to our foreign operations is not material to our results of operations, cash flows, or financial condition. At present, we do not hedge this exposure; however, we continue to evaluate such foreign currency exchange risk.

In the normal course of business, we have commercial arrangements with third-party vendors to provide cash for certain of our fund dispensing devices. Under the terms of these agreements, we pay a monthly fund usage fee that is generally based upon the target federal funds rate. We are, therefore, exposed to interest rate risk to the extent that the target federal funds rate increases. The outstanding balance of funds provided by the third-party vendors was approximately $390.4 million as of March 31, 2022; therefore, each 100 basis points increase in the target federal funds rate would have approximately a $3.9 million impact on income before tax over a 12-month period.

The New Credit Facilities bear interest at rates that can vary over time. We have the option of paying interest on the outstanding amounts under the New Credit Facilities using a base rate or LIBOR. We have historically elected to pay interest based on LIBOR, and we expect to continue to do so for various maturities.

The weighted average interest rate on the New Term Loan, which includes a 50 basis point floor, was 3.00% for the three months ended March 31, 2022. Based upon the outstanding balance of the New Term Loan of $597.0 million as of March 31, 2022, each 100 basis points increase in the applicable LIBOR would have a combined impact of approximately $6.0 million on interest expense over a 12-month period.

The interest rate is fixed at 5.00% for the Unsecured Notes due 2029; therefore, an increase in LIBOR does not impact the related interest expense.

At present, we do not hedge the risk related to the changes in the interest rate; however, we continue to evaluate such interest rate exposure.

We continue to evaluate the potential impact of the eventual replacement of the LIBOR benchmark. We expect to utilize the replacement rate commonly referred to as the secured overnight financing rate (“SOFR”), which is the anticipated benchmark in place of LIBOR, and we do not expect the transition to SOFR to have a material impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

38

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of the principal executive officer and the principal financial officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2022 such that material information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the SEC’s rules and forms, and (ii) accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting during the Quarter Ended March 31, 2022 

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

A discussion of our legal proceedings is contained in “Note 13 — Commitments and Contingencies” in Part I, Item 1: Financial Statements.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

We refer you to documents filed by us with the SEC; specifically, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report, which identify material factors that make an investment in us speculative or risky and could materially affect our business, financial condition and future results. We also refer you to the factors and cautionary language set forth in the section entitled “Cautionary Information Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” in “Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of Operations” of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including the accompanying Financial Statements, should be read in conjunction with such risks and other factors for a full understanding of our operations and financial condition. The risks described in our Annual Report are not the only risks facing us. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition or operating results. The risk factors included in our Annual Report have not materially changed.

Item 5. Other Information.

On May 4, 2022, our Board of Directors authorized and approved a new share repurchase program in an amount not to exceed $150 million pursuant to which we may purchase outstanding Company common stock in open market or privately negotiated transactions over a period of eighteen (18) months through November 4, 2023, in accordance with Company and regulatory policies and trading plans established in accordance with Rules 10b5-1 and 10b-18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The actual number of shares to be purchased will depend upon market conditions and is subject to available liquidity, general market and economic conditions, alternative uses for the capital and other factors. All shares purchased will be held in the Company’s treasury for possible future use. As of March 31, 2022, Everi had approximately 91.5 million shares issued and outstanding, net of 25.7 million shares held in the Company’s treasury. There is no minimum number of shares that the Company is required to repurchase, and the program may be suspended or discontinued at any time without prior notice. This new repurchase program supersedes and replaces, in its entirety, the previous share repurchase program.

BUSINESS

Everi Holdings Inc. (“Everi Holdings,” or “Everi”) is a holding company, the assets of which are the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of each of Everi Payments Inc. (“Everi FinTech” or “FinTech”) and Everi Games Holding Inc., which owns all of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of Everi Games Inc. (“Everi Games” or “Games”). Unless otherwise indicated, the terms the “Company,” “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to Everi Holdings together with its consolidated subsidiaries.

Everi is a supplier of entertainment and technology solutions for the casino and digital gaming industry. The Company develops game content and gaming machines, gaming systems and services for land-based and iGaming operators. The Company is also a provider of financial technology solutions that power the casino floor, including products and services that facilitate cash and cashless financial transactions, self-service player loyalty tools and applications, and regulatory and intelligence software.

Everi reports its financial performance, and organizes and manages its operations, across the following two business segments: (i) Games and (ii) Financial Technology Solutions (“FinTech”).

Everi Games provides gaming operators with gaming technology and entertainment products and services, including: (i) gaming machines, primarily comprising Class II and Class III slot machines placed under participation or fixed-fee lease arrangements or sold to casino customers; (ii) providing and maintaining the central determinant systems for the video lottery terminals (“VLTs”) installed in the State of New York and similar technology in certain tribal jurisdictions; and (iii) business-to-business (“B2B”) digital online gaming activities.

Everi FinTech provides gaming operators with financial technology products and services, including: (i) financial access and related services supporting digital, cashless and physical cash options across mobile, assisted and self-service channels; (ii) loyalty and marketing software and tools, regulatory and compliance (“RegTech”) software solutions, other information-related products and services, and hardware maintenance services; and (iii) associated casino patron self-service hardware that utilizes our financial access, software and other services. Our services operate as part of an end-to-end security suite to protect against cyber-related attacks and maintain the necessary secured environments to maintain compliance with applicable regulatory requirements. These solutions include: access to cash and cashless funding at gaming facilities via Automated Teller Machine (“ATM”) debit withdrawals, credit card financial access transactions, and point of sale (“POS”) debit card purchases at casino cages, kiosk and mobile POS devices; accounts for the CashClub Wallet, check warranty services, self-service ATMs and fully integrated kiosk and maintenance services; self-service loyalty tools and promotion management software; compliance, audit, and data software; casino credit data and reporting services; marketing and promotional offering subscription-based services; and other ancillary offerings.

Impact of the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (“COVID-19”) Pandemic

The COVID-19 pandemic has negatively impacted the global economy, disrupted global supply chains, lowered equity market valuations, created significant volatility in the financial markets, increased unemployment levels, and caused temporary, and in certain cases, permanent closures of many businesses. The initial impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic have begun to subside with certain aspects of the global economy, equity market valuations, and increased unemployment levels showing signs of recovery. The gaming industry was not immune to these factors as our casino customers closed their gaming establishments in the first quarter of 2020, with many beginning to reopen their operations over the remainder of 2020 and throughout 2021.

Since the onset of COVID-19, we have implemented measures to mitigate our exposure throughout the global pandemic. While there may be further uncertainty facing our customers as a result of COVID-19, we continue to evaluate our business strategies and the impacts of the global pandemic on our results of operations and financial condition and make business decisions to mitigate further risk. While gaming industry conditions have improved significantly in the first quarter of 2022 and year ended December 31, 2021, compared to 2020, it is unclear if the customer equipment purchases will consistently return to pre-COVID levels. Resurgences of COVID-19 and its variants could impact future customer operations or our own; however, we continue to monitor the impacts of the global pandemic and make adjustments to our business, accordingly.

Our revenues and liquidity for the first quarter of 2022 exceeded the first quarter of 2021, as nearly all of our casino customer locations have again reopened. With various limitations still in effect, we expect that demand and supply for our products and

services may be tempered in the short-term, to the extent gaming activity decreases at our customers’ locations, or fails to increase at expected rates, and to the extent our customers decide to continue to restrict their capital spending as a result of uncertainty in the industry, or that supply chain disruptions might impact customer deliveries or otherwise.

The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic also exacerbates the risks disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 (the “Annual Report”), including, but not limited to: our ability to generate revenues and, earn profits, our ability to service existing and attract new customers and maintain our overall competitiveness in the market; the potential for significant fluctuations in demand for our products and services; overall trends in the gaming industry impacting our business, and potential volatility in our stock price, among other concerns such as cybersecurity exposure.

The results for the three months ended March 31, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full fiscal year. The Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the most recently filed Annual Report.

We evaluate the composition of our revenues to maintain compliance with SEC Regulation S-X Section 210.5-3, which requires us to separately present certain categories of revenues that exceed the quantitative threshold on our Statements of Operations.

Revenue Recognition

Overview

We evaluate the recognition of revenue based on the criteria set forth in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606 — Revenue from Contracts with Customers and ASC 842 — Leases, as appropriate. We recognize revenue upon transferring control of goods or services to our customers in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to receive in exchange for those goods or services. We enter into contracts with customers that include various performance obligations consisting of goods, services, or combinations of goods and services. Timing of the transfer of control varies based on the nature of the contract. We recognize revenue net of any sales and other taxes collected from customers, which are subsequently remitted to governmental authorities and are not included in revenues or operating expenses. We measure revenue based on the consideration specified in a contract with a customer and adjusted, as necessary.

Disaggregation of Revenues

We disaggregate revenues based on the nature and timing of the cash flows generated by such revenues as presented in “Note 18 — Segment Information.”

Contract Balances

Since our contracts may include multiple performance obligations, there is often a timing difference between cash collections and the satisfaction of such performance obligations and revenue recognition. Such arrangements are evaluated to determine whether contract assets and liabilities exist. We generally record contract assets when the timing of billing differs from when revenue is recognized due to contracts containing specific performance obligations that are required to be met prior to a customer being invoiced. We generally record contract liabilities when cash is collected in advance of us satisfying performance obligations, including those that are satisfied over a period of time. Balances of our contract assets and contract liabilities may fluctuate due to timing of cash collections.

The following table summarizes our contract assets and contract liabilities arising from contracts with customers (in thousands):

	Three Months Ended March 31,

(1)  The current portion of contract assets is included within trade and other receivables, net, and the non-current portion is included within other receivables in our Balance Sheets.

(2)  The current portion of contract liabilities is included within accounts payable and accrued expenses, and the non-current portion is included within other accrued expenses and liabilities in our Balance Sheets.

We recognized approximately $12.7 million and $10.5 million in revenue that was included in the beginning contract liability balance during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Games Revenues

Our products and services include electronic gaming devices, such as Native American Class II offerings and other electronic bingo products, Class III slot machine offerings, VLTs, B2B digital online gaming activities, accounting and central determinant systems, and other back office systems. We conduct our Games segment business based on results generated from the following major revenue streams: (i) Gaming Operations; (ii) Gaming Equipment and Systems; and (iii) Gaming Other.

We recognize our Gaming Operations revenue based on criteria set forth in ASC 842 or ASC 606, as applicable. The amount of lease revenue included in our Gaming Operations revenues and recognized under ASC 842 was approximately $47.1 million and $40.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

FinTech Revenues

Our FinTech products and services include solutions that we offer to gaming establishments to provide their patrons with financial access and funds-based services supporting digital, cashless and physical cash options across mobile, assisted and self-service channels along with related loyalty and marketing tools, and other information-related products and services. In addition, our services operate as part of an end-to-end security suite to protect against cyber-related attacks and maintain the necessary secured environments to maintain compliance with applicable regulatory requirements. These solutions include: access to cash and cashless funding at gaming facilities via ATM debit withdrawals, credit card financial access transactions, and POS debit card purchases at casino cages, kiosk and mobile POS devices; accounts for the CashClub Wallet, check warranty services, self-service ATMs and fully integrated kiosk and maintenance services; self-service loyalty tools and promotion management software; compliance, audit, and data software; casino credit data and reporting services; marketing and promotional offering subscription-based services; and other ancillary offerings. We conduct our FinTech segment business based on results generated from the following major revenue streams: (i) Financial Access Services; (ii) Software and Other; and (iii) Hardware.

Hardware revenues are derived from the sale of our financial access and loyalty kiosks and related equipment and are accounted for under ASC 606, unless such transactions meet the definition of a sales type or direct financing lease, which are accounted for under ASC 842. We did not have any material financial access kiosk and related equipment sales contracts accounted for under ASC 842 during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021.

Restricted Cash

Our restricted cash primarily consists of: (i) funds held in connection with certain customer agreements; (ii) funds held in connection with a sponsorship agreement; (iii) wide area progressive (“WAP”)-related restricted funds; and (iv) financial access activities related to cashless balances held on behalf of patrons. The following table provides a reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash reported within the Balance Sheets that sum to the total of the same such amounts shown in the statement of cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2022 (in thousands).

	Classification on our Balance Sheets	At March 31, 2022		At December 31, 2021
Cash and cash equivalents	Cash and cash equivalents	$	269,400	$	302,009
Restricted cash - current	Prepaid expenses and other current assets	1,534		1,616
Restricted cash - non-current	Other assets	101		101
Total		$	271,035	$	303,726

Allowance for Credit Losses

We continually evaluate the collectability of outstanding balances and maintain an allowance for credit losses related to our trade and other receivables and notes receivable that have been determined to have a high risk of uncollectability, which represents our best estimates of the current expected credit losses to be incurred in the future. To derive our estimates, we analyze historical collection trends and changes in our customer payment patterns, current and expected conditions and market trends along with our operating forecasts, concentration, and creditworthiness when evaluating the adequacy of our allowance for credit losses. In addition, with respect to our check warranty receivables, we are exposed to risk for the losses associated with warranted items that cannot be collected from patrons issuing these items. We evaluate the collectability of the outstanding balances and establish a reserve for the face amount of the current expected credit losses related to these receivables. Account balances are charged against the provision when the Company believes it is probable the receivable will not be recovered. The provision for doubtful accounts receivable is included within operating expenses and the check warranty loss reserves are included within financial access services cost of revenues in the Statements of Operations.

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired plus liabilities assumed arising from business combinations. We test for impairment annually on a reporting unit basis, at the beginning of our fourth fiscal quarter and between annual tests if events and circumstances indicate it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. The annual impairment test is completed using either: a qualitative “Step 0” assessment based on reviewing relevant events and circumstances; or a quantitative “Step 1” assessment, which determines the fair value of the reporting unit, using both an income approach that discounts future cash flows based on the estimated future results of our reporting units and a market approach that compares market multiples of comparable companies to determine whether an impairment exists. To the extent the carrying amount of a reporting unit is less than its estimated fair value, an impairment charge is recorded.

The evaluation of impairment of goodwill requires the use of estimates about future operating results. Changes in forecasted operations can materially affect these estimates, which could materially affect our results of operations and financial condition. The estimates of expected future cash flows require significant judgment and are based on assumptions we determined to be reasonable; however, they are unpredictable and inherently uncertain, including, estimates of future growth rates, operating margins and assumptions about the overall economic climate as well as the competitive environment within which we operate. There can be no assurance that our estimates and assumptions made for purposes of our impairment assessments as of the time of evaluation will prove to be accurate predictions of the future. If our assumptions regarding business plans, competitive environments, or anticipated growth rates are not correct, we may be required to record non-cash impairment charges in future periods, whether in connection with our normal review procedures periodically, or earlier, if an indicator of an impairment is present prior to such evaluation.

Our reporting units are identified as operating segments or one level below. Reporting units must: (i) engage in business activities from which they earn revenues and incur expenses; (ii) have operating results that are regularly reviewed by our segment management to ascertain the resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance; and (iii) have discrete financial information available. As of March 31, 2022, our reporting units included: (i) Games; (ii) Financial Access Services; (iii) Kiosk Sales and Services; (iv) Central Credit Services; (v) Compliance Sales and Services; and (vi) Loyalty Sales and Services.

Fair Values of Financial Instruments

The fair value of a financial instrument represents the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale. Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based upon relevant market information about the financial instrument.

The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, settlement receivables, short-term trade and other receivables, settlement liabilities, accounts payable, and accrued expenses approximate fair value due to the short-term maturities of these instruments. The fair value of the long-term trade and loans receivable is estimated by discounting expected future cash flows using current interest rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and remaining maturities. The fair value of long-term accounts payable is estimated by discounting the total obligation using the appropriate interest rates. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the fair value of trade and loans receivable approximated the carrying value due to contractual terms generally being slightly over 12 months. The fair value of our borrowings is estimated based on various inputs to determine a market price, such as: market demand and supply, size of tranche, maturity, and similar instruments trading in more active markets. The estimated fair value and outstanding balances of our borrowings are as follows (dollars in thousands):

	Level of Hierarchy	Fair Value		Outstanding Balance
March 31, 2022
$600 million New Term Loan	2	$	591,030	$	597,000
$400 million 2021 Unsecured Notes	2	$	378,000	$	400,000
December 31, 2021
$600 million New Term Loan	2	$	598,171	$	598,500
$400 million 2021 Unsecured Notes	2	$	404,000	$	400,000

Our borrowings’ fair values were determined using Level 2 inputs based on quoted market prices for these securities.

LEASES

Leases [Abstract]

LEASES

LEASES

We determine if a contract is, or contains, a lease at the inception, or modification, of a contract based on whether the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. Control over the use of an asset is predicated upon the notion that a lessee has both the right to (i) obtain substantially all of the economic benefit from the use of the asset; and (ii) direct the use of the asset.

Operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and liabilities are recognized based on the present value of minimum lease payments over the expected lease term at commencement date. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the expected lease term. Our lease arrangements have both lease and non-lease components, and we have elected the practical expedient to account for the lease and non-lease elements as a single lease.

Certain of our lease arrangements contain options to renew with terms that generally have the ability to extend the lease term to a range of approximately one to ten years. The exercise of lease renewal options is generally at our sole discretion. The expected lease terms include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise such option. The depreciable life of leased assets and leasehold improvements is limited by the expected term of such assets, unless there is a transfer of title or purchase option reasonably certain to be exercised.

Lessee

We enter into operating lease agreements for real estate purposes that generally consist of buildings for office space and warehouses for manufacturing purposes. Certain of our lease agreements consist of rental payments that are periodically adjusted for inflation. Our lease agreements do not contain material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. Our lease agreements do not generally provide explicit rates of interest; therefore, we use our incremental collateralized borrowing rate, which is based on a fully collateralized and fully amortizing loan with a maturity date the same as the length of the lease that is based on the information available at the commencement date to determine the present value of lease payments. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less (short-term) are not accounted for on our Balance Sheets. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, our finance leases were not material.

We generate lease revenues primarily from our gaming operations activities, and the majority of our leases are month-to-month leases. Under these arrangements, we retain ownership of the electronic gaming machines (“EGMs”) installed at customer facilities. We receive recurring revenues based on a percentage of the net win per day generated by the leased gaming equipment or a fixed daily fee. Such revenues are generated daily and are limited to the lesser of the net win per day generated by the leased gaming equipment or the fixed daily fee and the lease payments that have been collected from the lessee. Certain of our leases have terms and conditions with options for a lessee to purchase the underlying assets. Refer to "Note 9 - Property and Equipment" for details of our rental pool assets cost and accumulated depreciation.

We did not have material sales transactions that qualified for sales-type lease accounting treatment during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021. Our interest income recognized in connection with sales-type leases executed in the prior periods was not material.

BUSINESS COMBINATIONS

Business Combination and Asset Acquisition [Abstract]

BUSINESS COMBINATIONS

BUSINESS COMBINATIONS

We account for business combinations in accordance with ASC 805, which requires that the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed be recorded at their estimated fair values on the acquisition date separately from goodwill, which is the excess of the fair value of the purchase price over the fair values of these identifiable assets and liabilities. We include the results of operations of an acquired business as of the acquisition date.

On March 1, 2022 (the “Closing Date”), the Company acquired the stock of ecash Holdings Pty Limited and wholly-owned subsidiaries Global Payment Technologies Australia Pty Limited, and ACN 121 187 068 Pty Limited (collectively “ecash”), a privately owned, Australia-based developer and provider of innovative cash handling and financial payment solutions for the broader gaming industry in Australia, Asia, Europe, and the United States. The acquisition of ecash’s products and services represents a strategic extension of Everi’s current suite of financial technology solutions within the FinTech segment. The acquisition provides Everi with a complementary portfolio of new customer locations throughout Australia, the United States, and other geographies.

Under the terms of the stock purchase agreement, we paid the seller AUD$20 million (approximately USD$15 million) on the Closing Date of the transaction and we will pay an additional AUD$6.5 million one year following the Closing Date and another AUD$6.5 million two years following the Closing Date. In addition, we expect to pay approximately AUD$9.0 million for the excess net working capital within a year from the Closing Date.

Pursuant to the arrangement, there is an earn-out provision of up to AUD$10 million, to the extent certain growth targets are achieved. The payment, if any, is subject to certain employment restrictions and will be accounted for as compensation expense in accordance with GAAP.

The acquisition did not have a significant impact on our results of operations or financial condition for the three months ended March 31, 2022.

The total preliminary purchase consideration for ecash was as follows (in thousands, at fair value):

	Amount in USD
Purchase consideration
Cash consideration paid at closing	$	14,980
Cash consideration to be paid in subsequent periods	15,905
Total purchase consideration	$	30,885

The transaction was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting, which requires, among other things, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed be recognized at their respective fair values as of the acquisition date. The excess of the purchase price over those fair values was recorded as goodwill, which will be amortized over a period of 15 years for tax purposes. The estimates and assumptions used include the projected timing and amount of future cash flows and discount rates reflecting risk inherent in the future cash flows. The estimated fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed and resulting goodwill are subject to adjustment as the Company finalizes its purchase price accounting. The significant items for which a final fair value has not been determined include, but are not limited to: the valuation and estimated useful lives of intangible assets, deferred and unearned revenues, and deferred income taxes. We do not expect our fair value determinations to materially change; however, there may be differences between the amounts recorded at the Closing Date and the final fair value analysis, which we expect to complete no later than the first quarter of 2023.

The information below reflects the preliminary amounts of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the closing date of the transaction (in thousands):

	Amount in USD
Current assets	$	14,168
Property and equipment	1,435
Other intangible assets	11,600
Goodwill	10,661
Other assets	549
Total Assets	38,413
Accounts payable and accrued expenses	6,416
Other accrued expenses and liabilities	1,112
Total liabilities	7,528
Net assets acquired	$	30,885

Current assets acquired included approximately $2.8 million in cash. Trade receivables acquired of approximately $5.8 million were short-term in nature and considered to be collectible, and therefore, the carrying amounts of these assets represented their fair values. Inventory acquired of approximately $5.5 million consisted of raw materials and finished goods and was recorded at fair value based on the estimated net realizable value of these assets. Property, equipment, and leased assets acquired were not material in size or scope, and the carrying amounts of these assets approximated their fair values.

The following table summarizes preliminary values of acquired intangible assets (dollars in thousands):

	Useful Life (Years)	Estimated Fair Value (USD)
Other Intangible Assets
Trade name	3	$	700
Developed technology	3	3,600
Customer relationships	9	7,300
Total other intangible assets		$	11,600

The fair value of intangible assets was determined by applying the income approach. The financial results included in our Statements of Operations since the acquisition date and through March 31, 2022 reflected revenues of approximately $1.2 million and net income of approximately $0.2 million. We incurred acquisition-related costs of approximately $0.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022.

A T M Funding Agreement Disclosure [Abstract]

FUNDING AGREEMENTS

FUNDING AGREEMENTS

We have commercial arrangements with third-party vendors to provide cash for certain of our fund dispensing devices. For the use of these funds, we pay a usage fee on either the average daily balance of funds utilized multiplied by a contractually defined usage rate or the amounts supplied multiplied by a contractually defined usage rate. These fund usage fees, reflected as interest expense within the Statements of Operations, were approximately $1.0 million and $0.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. We are exposed to interest rate risk to the extent that the applicable rates increase.

Under these agreements, the currency supplied by third party vendors remains their sole property until the funds are dispensed. As these funds are not our assets, supplied cash is not reflected in our Balance Sheets. The outstanding balance of funds provided from the third parties were approximately $390.4 million and $401.8 million as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

Our primary commercial arrangement, the Contract Cash Solutions Agreement, as amended, is with Wells Fargo, N.A. (“Wells Fargo”). Wells Fargo provides us with cash up to $300 million with the ability to increase the amount as defined within the agreement or otherwise permitted by the vault cash provider. The term of the agreement expires on June 30, 2023 and will automatically renew for additional one-year periods unless either party provides a ninety-day written notice of its intent not to renew.

We are responsible for losses of cash in the fund dispensing devices under this agreement, and we self-insure for this type of risk. There were no material losses for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021.

Receivables [Abstract]

TRADE AND OTHER RECEIVABLES

TRADE AND OTHER RECEIVABLESTrade and other receivables represent short-term credit granted to customers and long-term loans receivable in connection with our Games and FinTech equipment and compliance products. Trade and loans receivables generally do not require collateral. The balance of trade and loans receivables consists of outstanding balances owed to us by gaming establishments.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets Disclosure [Abstract]

GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS

GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired plus liabilities assumed arising from business combinations. The balance of goodwill was approximately $695.4 million and $682.7 million at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. We have the following reporting units: (i) Games; (ii) Financial Access Services; (iii) Kiosk Sales and Services; (iv) Central Credit Services; (v) Compliance Sales and Services; and (vi) Loyalty Sales and Services.

In accordance with ASC 350 (“Intangibles—Goodwill and Other”), we test goodwill at the reporting unit level, which is identified as an operating segment or one level below, for impairment on an annual basis and between annual tests if events and circumstances indicate it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount.

We test our goodwill for impairment on October 1 each year, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. The annual impairment test is completed using either: a qualitative “Step 0” assessment based on reviewing relevant events and circumstances or a quantitative “Step 1” assessment, which determines the fair value of the reporting unit, using both an income approach that discounts future cash flows based on the estimated future results of our reporting units and a market approach that compares market multiples of comparable companies to determine whether or not any impairment exists. To the extent the carrying amount of a reporting unit is less than its estimated fair value, an impairment charge is recorded.

There was no impairment identified for our goodwill for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021.

New Credit Facilities

Our Senior Secured Credit Facilities consist of: (i) a seven-year $600 million senior secured term loan due 2028 issued at 99.75% of par (the “New Term Loan”); and (ii) a $125 million senior secured revolving credit facility due 2026, which was undrawn at closing (the “New Revolver” and together with the New Term Loan, the “New Credit Facilities”). The Company, as borrower, entered into the credit agreement dated as of August 3, 2021 (the “Closing Date”), among the Company, the lenders party thereto and Jefferies Finance LLC, as administrative agent, collateral agent, swing line lender and a letter of credit issuer (the “New Credit Agreement”).

The interest rate per annum applicable to the New Credit Facilities will be, at the Company’s option, either the Eurodollar rate with a 0.50% LIBOR floor plus a margin of 2.50% or the base rate plus a margin of 1.50%.

The New Revolver is available for general corporate purposes, including permitted acquisitions, working capital and the issuance of letters of credit. Borrowings under the New Revolver are subject to the satisfaction of customary conditions, including the absence of defaults and the accuracy of representations and warranties.

The Company is required to make periodic payments on the New Term Loan in an amount equal to 0.25% per quarter of the initial aggregate principal, with the final principal repayment installment on the maturity date. Interest is due in arrears on each interest payment date applicable thereto and at such other times as may be specified in the New Credit Agreement. As to any loan other than a base rate loan, the interest payment dates shall be the last day of each interest period applicable to such loan

and the maturity date (provided, however, that if any interest period for a Eurodollar Rate loan exceeds three months, the respective dates that fall every three months after the beginning of such interest period shall also be interest payment dates). As to any base rate loan, commencing on the last business day of December 2021, the interest payment dates shall be last business day of each of March, June, September and December and the maturity date.

Voluntary prepayments of the New Term Loan and the New Revolver and voluntary reductions in the unused commitments are permitted in whole or in part, in minimum amounts as set forth in the New Credit Agreement governing the New Credit Facilities, with prior notice, and without premium or penalty, except that certain refinancings or repricings of the New Term Loan within six months after the Closing Date will be subject to a prepayment premium of 1.00% of the principal amount repaid.

The New Credit Agreement contains certain covenants that, among other things, limit the Company’s ability, and the ability of certain of its subsidiaries, to incur additional indebtedness, sell assets or consolidate or merge with or into other companies, pay dividends or repurchase or redeem capital stock, make certain investments, issue capital stock of subsidiaries, incur liens, prepay, redeem or repurchase subordinated debt, and enter into certain types of transactions with its affiliates. The New Credit Agreement also requires the Company, together with its subsidiaries, to comply with a maximum consolidated secured leverage ratio of 4.25:1.00 as of the measurement date.

The weighted average interest rate on the New Term Loan was 3.00% for the three months ended March 31, 2022.

Senior Unsecured Notes

Our Senior Unsecured Notes (the “2021 USN”) had an outstanding balance of approximately $400.0 million as of March 31, 2022, for which interest accrues at a rate of 5.00% per annum and is payable semi-annually in arrears on each January 15 and July 15.

Compliance with Debt Covenants

We were in compliance with the covenants and terms of the New Credit Facilities and the Senior Unsecured Notes as of March 31, 2022.

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

We are involved in various legal proceedings in the ordinary course of our business. While we believe resolution of the claims brought against us, both individually and in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse impact on our financial condition or results of operations, litigation of this nature is inherently unpredictable. Our views on these legal proceedings, including those described below, may change in the future. We intend to vigorously defend against these actions, and ultimately believe we should prevail.

Legal Contingencies

We evaluate matters and record an accrual for legal contingencies when it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount or range of the loss may be reasonably estimated. We evaluate legal contingencies at least quarterly and, as appropriate, establish new accruals or adjust existing accruals to reflect: (i) the facts and circumstances known to us at the time, including information regarding negotiations, settlements, rulings, and other relevant events and developments; (ii) the advice and analyses of counsel; and (iii) the assumptions and judgment of management. Legal costs associated with such proceedings are expensed as incurred. Due to the inherent uncertainty of legal proceedings as a result of the procedural, factual, and legal issues involved, the outcomes of our legal contingencies could result in losses in excess of amounts we have accrued.

We did not have any material legal matters that were accrued for as of March 31, 2022. We received service of process on one (1) new legal matter (Mary Parrish matter) described below.

FACTA-related matter:

Geraldine Donahue, et al. v. Everi Payments Inc., et al. (“Donahue”) is a putative class action matter filed on December 12, 2018, in the Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois County Division, Chancery Division. The original defendant was dismissed and Everi Holdings and FinTech (the “Defendants”) were substituted as the defendants on April 22, 2019. The plaintiff, on behalf of herself and others similarly situated, alleges that Everi Holdings and Everi FinTech (i) have violated certain provisions of FACTA by their failure, as agent to the original defendant, to properly truncate patron credit card numbers when printing financial access receipts as required under FACTA, and (ii) have been unjustly enriched through the charging of service fees for transactions conducted at the original defendant’s facilities. The plaintiff sought an award of statutory damages, attorneys’ fees,

and costs. The parties settled this matter on a nationwide class basis. On December 3, 2020, the court entered the Final Order and Judgment approving the settlement and dismissing all claims asserted against the Defendants with prejudice. Everi Holdings and Everi FinTech have paid all funds required pursuant to the settlement. Distributions were made to class members and remaining unclaimed funds were distributed to nonprofit charitable organizations in compliance with the court’s October 4, 2021, Defense counsel for Everi Payments Inc. has asked the court provide a final closing order/entry as this matter is now closed.

NRT matter:

NRT Technology Corp., et al. v. Everi Holdings Inc., et al. is a civil action filed on April 30, 2019 against Everi Holdings and Everi FinTech in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware by NRT Technology Corp. and NRT Technology, Inc., alleging monopolization of the market for unmanned, integrated kiosks in violation of federal antitrust laws, fraudulent procurement of patents on functionality related to such unmanned, integrated kiosks and sham litigation related to prior litigation brought by Everi FinTech (operating as Global Cash Access Inc.) against the plaintiff entities. The plaintiffs are seeking compensatory damages, treble damages, and injunctive and declaratory relief. Discovery is closed and this case is currently set for trial on September 26, 2022. We are currently unable to determine the probability of the outcome or estimate the range of reasonably possible loss, if any, in this matter.

Zenergy Systems, LLC matter:

Zenergy Systems, LLC v. Everi Payments Inc. is a civil action filed on May 29, 2020, against Everi FinTech in the United States District Court for the District of Nevada, Clark County by Zenergy Systems, LLC, alleging breach of contract, breach of a non-disclosure agreement, breach of the covenant of good faith and fair dealing, and breach of a confidential relationship related to a contract with Everi FinTech that expired in November 2019. The plaintiff is seeking compensatory and punitive damages. Everi FinTech has counterclaimed against Zenergy alleging breach of contract, breach of implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing, and for declaratory relief. The case is set for trial in June 2022. We are currently unable to determine the probability of the outcome or estimate the range of reasonably possible loss, if any, in this matter.

Sadie Saavedra matter:

Sadie Saavedra, et al. v. Everi Payments Inc., et al. is a civil action filed on August 30, 2021, against Everi Holdings and Everi FinTech in the United States District Court, Central District of California (Western Division) by Sadie Saavedra, individually and on behalf of a class of similarly situated individuals, alleging violations of the Unfair Competition Law (California Business & Professions Code § 17200) and unjust enrichment. The plaintiffs allege that certain of Everi’s ATMs screen are deceptive and designed to maximize the number of transaction fees and mislead consumers into incurring fees for additional transactions. The plaintiffs are seeking restitution, injunctive relief and attorneys’ fees. On April 11, 2022, the Court entered an Order granting the Motion to Dismiss on behalf of Everi Holdings and Everi FinTech. It is unclear at this time if the plaintiff will appeal the Court’s Order and we are currently unable to determine the probability of the outcome or estimate the range of reasonably possible loss, if any, in this matter.

Sightline Payments matter:

Sightline Payments LLC v. Everi Holdings Inc., et al. is a civil action filed on September 30, 2021, against Everi Holdings, Everi FinTech, Everi Games Holding Inc., and Everi Games in the United States District Court, Western District of Texas (Waco Division) by Sightline Payments LLC alleging patent infringement in violation of 35 U.S.C. § 271 et seq.

Everi filed a Motion to Dismiss or Transfer for Lack of Venue. The court has not yet set a hearing date for the pending motion. We are in the early stages of litigation and currently unable to determine the probability of the outcome or estimate the range of reasonably possible loss, if any, in this matter.

Mary Parrish matter:

Mary Parrish v. Everi Holdings Inc., et al. is a civil action filed on December 28, 2021, against Everi Holdings and Everi FinTech in the District Court of Nevada, Clark County by Mary Parrish alleging violation of the Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act (FACTA) amendment to the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA). Plaintiff’s complaint alleges she received a printed receipt for cash access services performed at an Everi Payments’ ATM which displayed more than four (4) digits of the account number. Plaintiff seeks statutory damages, punitive damages, injunctive relief, attorneys’ fees, and other relief as the court deems proper. Everi filed a Petition for Removal to the United States District Court, District of Nevada. Thereafter, Everi filed a Motion to Dismiss, which is pending in the United States District Court. Due to the early stages of the litigation, we are

currently unable to estimate the probability of the outcome of this matter or reasonably estimate the range of possible damages, if any.In addition, we have commitments with respect to certain lease obligations discussed in “Note 3 — Leases” and installment payments under our purchase agreements discussed in “Note 4 — Business Combinations.”

INCOME TAXES

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]

INCOME TAXES

INCOME TAXES

The income tax provision for the three months ended March 31, 2022, reflected an effective income tax rate of 23.6%, which was greater than the statutory federal rate of 21.0%, primarily due to state taxes and an accrual for foreign withholding tax, partially offset by both a research credit and the benefit from stock option exercises. The income tax provision for the three months ended March 31, 2021 reflected an effective income tax rate of 5.5%, which was less than the statutory federal rate of 21.0%, primarily due to a decrease in our valuation allowance for our deferred tax assets and the benefit from both stock option exercises and from a research credit.

We have analyzed filing positions in all of the federal, state, and foreign jurisdictions where we are required to file income tax returns, as well as all open tax years in these jurisdictions. As of March 31, 2022, we recorded approximately $2.2 million of unrecognized tax benefits, all of which would impact our effective tax rate, if recognized. We do not anticipate that our unrecognized tax benefits will materially change within the next 12 months. We have not accrued any penalties and interest for our unrecognized tax benefits. We may, from time to time, be assessed interest or penalties by tax jurisdictions, although any such assessments historically have been minimal and immaterial to our financial results. Our policy for recording interest and penalties associated with audits and unrecognized tax benefits is to record such items as a component of income tax in our Statements of Operations.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]

SEGMENT INFORMATION

SEGMENT INFORMATION

Operating segments are components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision-making group (the “CODM”). Our CODM generally consists of the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer. Our CODM allocates resources and measures profitability based on our operating segments, which are managed and reviewed separately, as each represents products and services that can be sold separately to our customers. Our segments are monitored by management for performance against our internal forecasts.

We have reported our financial performance based on our segments in both the current and prior periods. Our CODM determined that our operating segments for conducting business are: (i) Games and (ii) FinTech:

•Everi Games primarily provides gaming operators with gaming technology products and services, including: (i) gaming machines, primarily comprising Class II and Class III slot machines placed under participation or fixed-fee lease arrangements or sold to casino customers; (ii) provision and maintenance of the central determinant systems for the VLTs installed in the State of New York and similar technology in certain tribal jurisdictions; and (iii) B2B digital online gaming activities.

•Everi FinTech provides gaming operators with financial technology and entertainment products and services, including: (i) financial access and related services supporting digital, cashless and physical cash options across mobile, assisted and self-service channels; (ii) loyalty and marketing software and tools, RegTech software solutions, other information-related products and services, and hardware maintenance services; and (iii) associated casino patron self-service hardware that utilizes our financial access, software and other services.

Corporate overhead expenses have been allocated to the segments either through specific identification or based on a reasonable methodology. In addition, we record depreciation and amortization expenses to the business segments.

Our business is predominantly domestic with no specific regional concentrations and no significant assets in foreign locations.

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Acquisition

The Company acquired the stock of Intuicode Gaming Corporation (“Intuicode”), a privately owned game development and engineering firm focused on Historical Horse Racing (“HHR”) games, effective on April 30, 2022.

The acquisition of Intuicode provides Everi with additional HHR expertise that will help the Company accelerate its entry into and growth in the expanding HHR market that will benefit the Games segment.

Under the terms of the stock purchase agreement, the acquisition cost includes an initial payment of $12.5 million, with two additional payments based on future revenue to be made on each of the first and second anniversaries of the acquisition's closing in 2023 and 2024, which is expected to increase the total consideration to be between $22 million and $27 million. Everi expects to fund the total purchase price from existing cash on hand and future cash flow.

This transaction will be accounted for as a business combination under the acquisition method of accounting. The acquisition is not expected to have a material impact on our results of operations or financial condition.

Share Repurchase Program

On May 4, 2022, our Board of Directors authorized and approved a new share repurchase program in an amount not to exceed $150 million pursuant to which we may purchase outstanding Company common stock in open market or privately negotiated transactions over a period of eighteen (18) months through November 4, 2023, in accordance with Company and regulatory policies and trading plans established in accordance with Rules 10b5-1 and 10b-18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The actual number of shares to be purchased will depend upon market conditions and is subject to available liquidity, general market and economic conditions, alternative uses for the capital and other factors. All shares purchased will be held in the Company’s treasury for possible future use. As of March 31, 2022, Everi had approximately 91.5 million shares issued and outstanding, net of 25.7 million shares held in the Company’s treasury. There is no minimum number of shares that the Company is required to repurchase, and the program may be suspended or discontinued at any time without prior notice. This new repurchase program supersedes and replaces, in its entirety, the previous share repurchase program.

Basis of Presentation

Basis of Presentation

Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by us pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Some of the information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although we believe the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair statement of results for the interim periods have been made. The results for the three months ended March 31, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full fiscal year. The Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the most recently filed Annual Report.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue Recognition

Overview

We evaluate the recognition of revenue based on the criteria set forth in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606 — Revenue from Contracts with Customers and ASC 842 — Leases, as appropriate. We recognize revenue upon transferring control of goods or services to our customers in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to receive in exchange for those goods or services. We enter into contracts with customers that include various performance obligations consisting of goods, services, or combinations of goods and services. Timing of the transfer of control varies based on the nature of the contract. We recognize revenue net of any sales and other taxes collected from customers, which are subsequently remitted to governmental authorities and are not included in revenues or operating expenses. We measure revenue based on the consideration specified in a contract with a customer and adjusted, as necessary.

Disaggregation of Revenues

We disaggregate revenues based on the nature and timing of the cash flows generated by such revenues as presented in “Note 18 — Segment Information.”

Contract Balances

Since our contracts may include multiple performance obligations, there is often a timing difference between cash collections and the satisfaction of such performance obligations and revenue recognition. Such arrangements are evaluated to determine whether contract assets and liabilities exist. We generally record contract assets when the timing of billing differs from when revenue is recognized due to contracts containing specific performance obligations that are required to be met prior to a customer being invoiced. We generally record contract liabilities when cash is collected in advance of us satisfying performance obligations, including those that are satisfied over a period of time. Balances of our contract assets and contract liabilities may fluctuate due to timing of cash collections.

The following table summarizes our contract assets and contract liabilities arising from contracts with customers (in thousands):

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2022		2021

(1)  The current portion of contract assets is included within trade and other receivables, net, and the non-current portion is included within other receivables in our Balance Sheets.

(2)  The current portion of contract liabilities is included within accounts payable and accrued expenses, and the non-current portion is included within other accrued expenses and liabilities in our Balance Sheets.

We recognized approximately $12.7 million and $10.5 million in revenue that was included in the beginning contract liability balance during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Games Revenues

Our products and services include electronic gaming devices, such as Native American Class II offerings and other electronic bingo products, Class III slot machine offerings, VLTs, B2B digital online gaming activities, accounting and central determinant systems, and other back office systems. We conduct our Games segment business based on results generated from the following major revenue streams: (i) Gaming Operations; (ii) Gaming Equipment and Systems; and (iii) Gaming Other.

We recognize our Gaming Operations revenue based on criteria set forth in ASC 842 or ASC 606, as applicable. The amount of lease revenue included in our Gaming Operations revenues and recognized under ASC 842 was approximately $47.1 million and $40.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

FinTech Revenues

Our FinTech products and services include solutions that we offer to gaming establishments to provide their patrons with financial access and funds-based services supporting digital, cashless and physical cash options across mobile, assisted and self-service channels along with related loyalty and marketing tools, and other information-related products and services. In addition, our services operate as part of an end-to-end security suite to protect against cyber-related attacks and maintain the necessary secured environments to maintain compliance with applicable regulatory requirements. These solutions include: access to cash and cashless funding at gaming facilities via ATM debit withdrawals, credit card financial access transactions, and POS debit card purchases at casino cages, kiosk and mobile POS devices; accounts for the CashClub Wallet, check warranty services, self-service ATMs and fully integrated kiosk and maintenance services; self-service loyalty tools and promotion management software; compliance, audit, and data software; casino credit data and reporting services; marketing and promotional offering subscription-based services; and other ancillary offerings. We conduct our FinTech segment business based on results generated from the following major revenue streams: (i) Financial Access Services; (ii) Software and Other; and (iii) Hardware.

Hardware revenues are derived from the sale of our financial access and loyalty kiosks and related equipment and are accounted for under ASC 606, unless such transactions meet the definition of a sales type or direct financing lease, which are accounted for under ASC 842. We did not have any material financial access kiosk and related equipment sales contracts accounted for under ASC 842 during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021.

Restricted Cash

Restricted CashOur restricted cash primarily consists of: (i) funds held in connection with certain customer agreements; (ii) funds held in connection with a sponsorship agreement; (iii) wide area progressive (“WAP”)-related restricted funds; and (iv) financial access activities related to cashless balances held on behalf of patrons.

Allowance for Credit Losses

Allowance for Credit Losses

We continually evaluate the collectability of outstanding balances and maintain an allowance for credit losses related to our trade and other receivables and notes receivable that have been determined to have a high risk of uncollectability, which represents our best estimates of the current expected credit losses to be incurred in the future. To derive our estimates, we analyze historical collection trends and changes in our customer payment patterns, current and expected conditions and market trends along with our operating forecasts, concentration, and creditworthiness when evaluating the adequacy of our allowance for credit losses. In addition, with respect to our check warranty receivables, we are exposed to risk for the losses associated with warranted items that cannot be collected from patrons issuing these items. We evaluate the collectability of the outstanding balances and establish a reserve for the face amount of the current expected credit losses related to these receivables. Account balances are charged against the provision when the Company believes it is probable the receivable will not be recovered. The provision for doubtful accounts receivable is included within operating expenses and the check warranty loss reserves are included within financial access services cost of revenues in the Statements of Operations.

Goodwill

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired plus liabilities assumed arising from business combinations. We test for impairment annually on a reporting unit basis, at the beginning of our fourth fiscal quarter and between annual tests if events and circumstances indicate it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. The annual impairment test is completed using either: a qualitative “Step 0” assessment based on reviewing relevant events and circumstances; or a quantitative “Step 1” assessment, which determines the fair value of the reporting unit, using both an income approach that discounts future cash flows based on the estimated future results of our reporting units and a market approach that compares market multiples of comparable companies to determine whether an impairment exists. To the extent the carrying amount of a reporting unit is less than its estimated fair value, an impairment charge is recorded.

The evaluation of impairment of goodwill requires the use of estimates about future operating results. Changes in forecasted operations can materially affect these estimates, which could materially affect our results of operations and financial condition. The estimates of expected future cash flows require significant judgment and are based on assumptions we determined to be reasonable; however, they are unpredictable and inherently uncertain, including, estimates of future growth rates, operating margins and assumptions about the overall economic climate as well as the competitive environment within which we operate. There can be no assurance that our estimates and assumptions made for purposes of our impairment assessments as of the time of evaluation will prove to be accurate predictions of the future. If our assumptions regarding business plans, competitive environments, or anticipated growth rates are not correct, we may be required to record non-cash impairment charges in future periods, whether in connection with our normal review procedures periodically, or earlier, if an indicator of an impairment is present prior to such evaluation.Our reporting units are identified as operating segments or one level below. Reporting units must: (i) engage in business activities from which they earn revenues and incur expenses; (ii) have operating results that are regularly reviewed by our segment management to ascertain the resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance; and (iii) have discrete financial information available.

Fair Values of Financial Instruments

Fair Values of Financial Instruments

The fair value of a financial instrument represents the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale. Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based upon relevant market information about the financial instrument.

The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, settlement receivables, short-term trade and other receivables, settlement liabilities, accounts payable, and accrued expenses approximate fair value due to the short-term maturities of these instruments. The fair value of the long-term trade and loans receivable is estimated by discounting expected future cash flows using current interest rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and remaining maturities. The fair value of long-term accounts payable is estimated by discounting the total obligation using the appropriate interest rates.
