Canadian Payroll Tax Receivable
CANADIAN PAYROLL TAX RECEIVABLE
Certain Company expenditures incurred through its subsidiary AGS Toronto are eligible for the Ontario Interactive Digital Media Tax Credit (“OIDMTC”). The OIDMTC is a refundable payroll tax credit paid to corporations that develop interactive digital media products within Ontario. The OIDMTC is based upon the Ontario labor expenditures and eligible marketing and distribution expenditures claimed by a qualifying corporation with respect to eligible products. For a certified game developer, eligible expenses include Ontario salaries and wages. The developer must incur at least $1 million of Ontario labor expenses per year developing eligible interactive digital media games to qualify.
Pursuant to the Acquisition Agreement the Canadian payroll tax receivable balance, on the Closing Date, was retained by AGS Holdings. The Company has recognized a Canadian payroll tax receivable related to the OIDMTC of $0.5 million and $23,000 as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.
