PROXY STATEMENT

 OF SHAREHOLDERS TO BE HELD ON JUNE 15, 2022
 
GENERAL INFORMATION
 
This Proxy Statement is being provided to solicit proxies on behalf of the Board of Directors (the Board of Directors) of NeoGames S.A. (the Company, NeoGames, we, our or us) for use at the 2022 annual general meeting of shareholders (the Annual General Meeting) to be held on June 15, 2022 (4:00 p.m. Luxembourg time, 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time) at the Company’s registered office: 63-65, rue de Merl, L-2146 Luxembourg, Grand Duchy of Luxembourg and any adjournment or postponement thereof.

The following documents are available at https://ir.neogames.com/:


Proxy Statement.

Copies of the revised Company’s annual accounts for the financial year ended December 31, 2019 (the 2019 Financial Statements), the report prepared by the Board of Directors and the report of the approved statutory auditor (réviseur d’entreprises agréé) relating to the 2019 Financial Statements.

Copies of the revised Company’s annual accounts for the financial year ended December 31, 2020 (the 2020 Financial Statements), the report prepared by the Board of Directors and the report of the approved statutory auditor (réviseur d’entreprises agréé) relating to the 2020 Financial Statements.

Copies of the Company’s annual accounts for the financial year ended December 31, 2021, the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the financial year ended December 31, 2021 (together, the 2021 Financial Statements), the report prepared by the Board of Directors and the Company’s approved statutory auditor (réviseur d’entreprises agréé) relating to the 2021 Financial Statements.

Annual report pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934 for the financial year ended December 31, 2021 (the Form 20-F).
 
Information contained on the Company’s website is not incorporated by reference into this document, and you should not consider information contained on that website to be part of this document.

This Proxy Statement, together with the Convening Notice containing the agenda and the proxy card with a reply envelope, are hereinafter referred to as the Proxy Materials.
 
Foreign Private Issuer
 
We are a “foreign private issuer” within the meaning of Rule 3b-4 of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act), and as a result, we are not required to comply with proxy requirements under the Exchange Act.
 
How may the Proxy Materials be accessed?
 
We intend to mail the Proxy Materials on or about May 6, 2022 to all shareholders of our ordinary shares as of the Record Date. These documents may also be obtained free of charge at the Company’s registered office in Luxembourg.
 


Who may vote?
 
Shareholders of record who held ordinary shares as of the Record Date are entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Annual General Meeting. In addition, shareholders who, as of the Record Date, held ordinary shares through a bank, broker or other nominee which is a shareholder of record of the Company at the close of business on the Record Date, or which appears in the participant list of a securities depository on that date, are considered to be beneficial owners of shares held in “street name.” These Proxy Materials are being forwarded to beneficial owners by the bank, broker or other nominee that is considered the holder of record with respect to the Company’s ordinary shares. Beneficial owners have the right to direct how their shares should be voted and are also invited to attend the Annual General Meeting, but may not actually vote their shares in person at the Annual General Meeting unless they first obtain a signed proxy from the record holder (that is, their bank, broker or other nominee) giving them the right to vote the shares. On the Record Date, 25,859,664 ordinary shares were issued and outstanding.
 
Each ordinary share is entitled to one vote on each of the matters presented to our shareholders at the Annual General Meeting.
 
What constitutes a quorum?
 
At any ordinary general meeting (including the Annual General Meeting), there is no quorum requirement.
 
What are broker non-votes and abstentions?
 
Broker non-votes occur when a broker holding ordinary shares in street name for a beneficial owner submits a proxy that votes the ordinary shares on one or more proposals, but does not vote on one or more other proposals with respect to which the broker did not receive instructions from the beneficial owner about how to vote the ordinary shares and is unable to vote the ordinary shares in its discretion in the absence of an instruction. An abstention occurs when a shareholder withholds such shareholder’s vote or holder’s vote on a particular matter by checking the “ABSTAIN” box on the proxy card.
 
Brokers that hold shares in “street name” for clients typically have authority to vote on “routine” proposals even when they have not received instructions from beneficial owners. The only item on the Annual General Meeting agenda that may be considered routine is Proposal No. 8 relating to the appointment of our statutory auditor for the period ending at the general meeting approving the annual accounts for the financial year ending December 31, 2022; however, as this Proxy Statement is prepared in compliance with Luxembourg Law rather than the rules applicable to domestic U.S. reporting companies, we cannot be certain whether Proposal No. 8 will be treated as a “routine” proposal and it is therefore important for a shareholder that holds ordinary shares through a bank, broker or other nominee to instruct such bank, broker or other nominee how to vote its shares, if the shareholder wants its shares to count for the proposals. Your broker will not be able to vote your ordinary shares with respect to any of the proposals or other matters considered at the Annual General Meeting, unless you have provided instructions to your broker. We strongly encourage you to provide instructions to your broker to vote your ordinary shares and exercise your right as a shareholder.

How can shareholders vote?

Registered Shareholders

If you are a shareholder of record (that is, you hold a share certificate that is registered in your name or you are listed as a shareholder in the Company’s share register), you can submit your vote by completing, signing and submitting a proxy card, which has or will be sent to you and which will be accessible at the “Investor Relations” section of the Company’s website at https://ir.neogames.com/financials/sec-filings.

Please follow the instructions on the proxy card. If you provide specific instructions (by marking a box) with regard to the proposals to be voted on at the Annual General Meeting, your shares will be voted as you instruct. If you sign and return your proxy card without giving specific instructions, your shares will be voted in accordance with the recommendations of the Board of Directors. Furthermore, the persons named as proxies in the enclosed proxy card will vote in accordance with the recommendations of the Board of Directors on any other matters that may properly come before the Annual General Meeting.

3

Ballots will be passed out at the Annual General Meeting to anyone who wants to vote at the Annual General Meeting. If you choose to do so, please bring the enclosed proxy card and proof of identification. If you are a shareholder of record and your shares are held directly in your name, you may vote in person at the Annual General Meeting.

Shareholders Holding in “Street Name”

If you hold ordinary shares in “street name” through a bank, broker or other nominee, the voting process will be based on your directing the bank, broker or other nominee to vote the ordinary shares in accordance with the voting instructions on your voting instruction form. Please follow the instructions on the voting instruction form received from your bank, broker or nominee. You may also be able to submit voting instructions to a bank, broker or nominee by phone or via the internet if your voting instruction form describes such voting methods. Please be certain to have your control number from your voting instruction form ready for use in providing your voting instructions. It is important for a shareholder that holds ordinary shares through a bank, broker or other nominee to instruct its bank, broker or nominee how to vote its shares if you want your shares to count for each proposal.

You may also vote in person at the Annual General Meeting. However, because a beneficial owner is not a shareholder of record, you must first obtain a “legal proxy” from the bank, broker or nominee that holds your shares, giving you the right to vote the shares at the Annual General Meeting.

Even if you plan to attend the Annual General Meeting, the Company recommends that you vote your shares in advance so that your vote will be counted if you later decide not to attend the Annual General Meeting.

What is the process for revocation of proxies?

A shareholder may revoke a proxy in one of the following ways: (i) by written notice of the revocation of the proxy delivered by mail to the Company at its offices at 10 Habarzel Street, Tel Aviv, 6971014, Israel, Attention: Mr. Raviv Adler, CFO, no later than 5:59 a.m. Luxembourg time on June 15, 2022, or to its transfer agent, American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC, by mail to 6201 15th Avenue, Brooklyn, New York 11219, no later than 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on June 14, 2022, cancelling the proxy or appointing a different proxy, (ii) by written notice of the revocation of the proxy delivered at the Annual General Meeting to the chairman of the Annual General Meeting or (iii) by attending and voting in person at the Annual General Meeting. Attendance at the Annual General Meeting will not, in and of itself, constitute revocation of a proxy.
 
If you are a registered shareholder, you may request a new proxy card by contacting our Investor Relations department by e-mail at Ir@neogames.com. You should send any written notice or new proxy card to NeoGames S.A., c/o American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC, by mail to 6201 15th Avenue, Brooklyn, New York 11219 or to the Company at its offices at 10 Habarzel Street, Tel Aviv, 6971014, Israel, Attention: Mr. Raviv Adler, CFO.

Any street name holder may change or revoke previously given voting instructions by contacting the bank, brokerage firm or other nominee holding the ordinary shares or by obtaining a legal proxy from such bank, brokerage firm or nominee and voting in person at the Annual General Meeting. Your last voting instructions, prior to or at the Annual General Meeting, are the voting instructions that will be taken into account.

Who will count the votes?

Our transfer agent, American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC will receive and tabulate the proxies.
 
What if I do not specify how my shares are to be voted?

If you submit a proxy and direct the individual(s) named as proxies on how to vote your shares, the individual(s) named as proxies will vote your ordinary shares in the manner you indicate. If you submit a proxy but do not direct how your ordinary shares will be voted, the proxyholder will vote your shares “FOR” the re-election of each of the nominees for director and “FOR” each of the other proposals identified herein.

4

Will any other business be conducted at the Annual General Meeting?
 
It is not expected that any other matters will be brought before the Annual General Meeting. If, however, other matters are properly presented, the individual(s) named as proxies will vote in accordance with their discretion with respect to such matters.

Who may attend the Annual General Meeting?

Only holders of our ordinary shares as of the Record Date or their legal proxy holders may attend the Annual General Meeting. All holders of our ordinary shares planning to attend the Annual General Meeting in person should contact our Investor Relations department at Ir@neogames.com by 5:59 a.m. Luxembourg time, on June 15, 2022 (i.e., 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time, on June 14, 2022) to reserve a seat.

No cameras, recording equipment, electronic devices (including cell phones) or large bags, briefcases or packages will be permitted in the Annual General Meeting.

Registered Shareholders

To be admitted to the Annual General Meeting, you will need a form of photo identification. You will be admitted to the Annual General Meeting only if we are able to verify your status as a registered shareholder by checking your name against the list of registered shareholders on the Record Date.

Shareholders Holding in “Street Name”

To be admitted to the Annual General Meeting, you will need a form of photo identification and you must also bring valid proof of ownership of your ordinary shares on the Record Date. In order to vote at the Annual General Meeting you must bring a valid legal proxy from the holder of record.

If you hold your ordinary shares in street name through a bank or brokerage firm, a brokerage statement reflecting your ownership as of the Record Date or a letter from a bank or broker confirming your ownership as of the Record Date is sufficient proof of ownership to be admitted to the Annual General Meeting.

The health and well-being of our shareholders is our top priority. In view of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and the related limitations on travel and large gatherings, we encourage you to vote by proxy or by submitting a vote electronically in accordance with the instructions on your voting instructions form.

When will voting results be announced?

The preliminary voting results will be announced at the Annual General Meeting. The final voting results will be tallied by the Company’s transfer agent and will be published following the Annual General Meeting on a Form 6-K that will be furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC).

5

Who will bear the costs of proxy solicitation?

The Company will bear the costs of solicitation of proxies for the Annual General Meeting. Directors, officers and employees of the Company may solicit proxies from shareholders by telephone, personal interview or otherwise. Such directors, officers and employees will not receive additional compensation, but may be reimbursed for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses in connection with such solicitation. Brokers, nominees, fiduciaries and other custodians have been requested to forward soliciting material to the beneficial owners of ordinary shares held of record by them, and such custodians will be reimbursed by the Company for their reasonable out-of-pocket expenses. The Company may also retain an independent contractor to assist in the solicitation of proxies. If retained for such services, the costs will be paid by the Company. Proxy cards must be received by the tabulation agent (American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC), or delivered to our officers in Israel at 10 Habarzel Street, Tel Aviv, 6971014, Israel, Attention: Mr. Raviv Adler, CFO, no later than 5:59 a.m. Luxembourg time, on June 15, 2022 (i.e., 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time, on June 14, 2022), in order for such votes to be counted. Proxies delivered to the Company or to its transfer agent following such times will be presented to the chairperson of the Annual General Meeting and, at his discretion, may be voted as specified in the instructions included in such proxies.

Where are the Proxy Materials available?

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

Our articles of association provide that the Board of Directors must be composed of at least three (3) members and no more than nine (9) members. Our Board of Directors currently consists of six (6) directors, three (3) of whom are independent pursuant to the rules of Nasdaq. Each director holds office for the term determined by the general meeting of the shareholders, but not exceeding six (6) years, or until his or her successor has been appointed. A member of the Board of Directors may be removed at any time, with or without cause, by a resolution of the general meeting of the shareholders (and in accordance with the nomination rights as further set out in our articles of association).

Controlled Company Exemption

Until recently, we were a “controlled company” as set forth in the Nasdaq rules, and were able to rely on a “controlled company” exemption in addition to exemptions on which we may rely as a foreign private issuer, because our founding shareholders, Mr. Barak Matalon, Mr. Elyahu Azur, Mr. Pinhas Zahavi and Mr. Aharon Aran (collectively, the Founding Shareholders), beneficially owned more than 50% of the voting power of our ordinary shares eligible to vote in the election of directors. However, as of December 31, 2021, our Founding Shareholders beneficially own approximately 49.97% of our ordinary shares. Under the Nasdaq rules, a company in which more than 50% of the voting power is held by an individual, group or another company is a “controlled company” and may elect to utilize exemptions from certain corporate governance standards, including the requirement (1) that a majority of the board of directors consist of independent directors, (2) to have a compensation committee that is composed entirely of independent directors with a written charter addressing the committee’s purpose and responsibilities and (3) that our director nominations be made, or recommended to the full board of directors, by our independent directors or by a nominations committee that is composed entirely of independent directors and that we adopt a written charter or board resolution addressing the nominations process. Until recently, we utilized the exemption from the requirement to have a majority of the board of directors consist of independent directors. We ceased to be a “controlled company” in November 2021 and are required to comply with the relevant Nasdaq rules within the applicable transition periods. However, in the event that the Founding Shareholders increase their holdings to more than 50% of our ordinary shares, we will regain the status of a “controlled company” and may elect to take advantage of the controlled company exemptions under the Nasdaq rules.

Board Committee Composition

Our Board of Directors has established an Audit Committee, a Compensation Committee and a Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. Each of our committees operates under a written charter that has been approved by our Board. You can access our current committee charters in the “Governance” section of our website located at https://ir.neogames.com/governance/documents-and-charters. Information contained on the Company’s website is not incorporated by reference into this document, and you should not consider information contained on that website to be part of this document.

Compensation Committee

Our Compensation Committee, which consists of Mr. John E. Taylor, Jr., Mr. Laurent Teitgen and Ms. Lisbeth McNabb, assists our Board of Directors in determining executive officer compensation. Mr. John E. Taylor, Jr. serves as chair of the committee. The committee recommends to our Board of Directors the compensation of each of our executive officers. Under SEC and Nasdaq rules, there are heightened independence standards for members of our Compensation Committee, including a prohibition against the receipt of any compensation from us other than standard board member fees. Our Board of Directors has determined that all of our Compensation Committee members meet this heightened standard. The responsibilities of our Compensation Committee include:


identifying, reviewing and approving corporate goals and objectives relevant to executive officer compensation;


analyzing the possible outcomes of the variable remuneration components and how they may affect the remuneration of our executive officers;

14


evaluating each executive officer’s performance in light of such goals and objectives and determining each executive officer’s compensation based on such evaluation;


determining any long-term incentive component of each executive officer’s compensation in line with the remuneration policy and reviewing our executive officer compensation and benefits policies generally;


periodically reviewing, in consultation with our Chief Executive Officer, our management succession planning; and


reviewing and assessing risks arising from our compensation policies and practices for our employees and whether any such risks are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on us.

The Compensation Committee met six times in 2021.

Audit Committee

Our Audit Committee, which consists of Ms. Lisbeth McNabb, Mr. John E. Taylor, Jr. and Mr. Laurent Teitgen, assists our Board of Directors in overseeing our accounting and financial reporting processes and the audits of our financial statements. Ms. Lisbeth McNabb serves as chair of the committee. The Audit Committee consists exclusively of members of our Board of Directors who are financially literate, and Ms. Lisbeth McNabb is considered an “audit committee financial expert” as defined by the SEC. Our Board of Directors has determined that Mr. John E. Taylor, Jr., Mr. Laurent Teitgen and Ms. Lisbeth McNabb meet the “independence” requirements set forth in Rule 10A-3 under the Exchange Act and the Nasdaq rules, including the heightened independence standards applicable to audit committee members. The Audit Committee is governed by a charter that complies with Nasdaq rules. The responsibilities of our Audit Committee include:


recommending the appointment of the independent auditor to the general meeting of the shareholders;


the appointment, compensation, retention and oversight of any accounting firm engaged for the purpose of preparing or issuing an audit report or performing other audit services;


pre-approving the audit services and non-audit services to be provided by our independent auditor before the auditor is engaged to render such services;


evaluating the independent auditor’s qualifications, performance and independence, and presenting its conclusions to our Board of Directors on at least an annual basis;


reviewing and discussing with our Board of Directors and the independent auditor our annual audited financial statements and quarterly financial statements prior to the filing of the respective annual and quarterly reports;


reviewing our compliance with laws and regulations, including major legal and regulatory initiatives and also reviewing any major litigation or investigations against us that may have a material impact on our financial statements; and


reviewing and discussing the Company’s policies with respect to risk assessment and risk management and establishing procedures for receipt, retention and treatment of complaints received regarding accounting, internal accounting controls or auditing matters, and for the confidential and anonymous submission by employees of concerns regarding questionable accounting or auditing matters.

The Audit Committee met seven times in 2021.

15

Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee

Our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, which consists of Mr. John E. Taylor, Jr., Mr. Laurent Teitgen and Ms. Lisbeth McNabb, assists our Board of Directors in identifying individuals qualified to become members of our Board of Directors consistent with criteria established by our Board of Directors and in developing our corporate governance principles.

reviewing and evaluating the composition, function and duties of our Board of Directors;


recommending nominees for selection to our Board of Directors and its corresponding committees;


making recommendations to our Board of Directors as to determinations of board member independence;
