REPORT OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS-INTRALOT GROUP
TO THE ANNUAL GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF THE SHAREHOLDERS FOR THE FISCAL YEAR
1/1/2022-31/12/2022
Dear Shareholders,
In the past year, INTRALOT has focused on measures aimed at stabilizing its existing operations and
successfully implementing new projects that were initiated in 2021, such as the project with the
Croatian Lottery. In addition, the cost reduction program, mainly at headquarters level, which has
been carefully planned and monitored over the last three years, delivered the desired benefits that
were incorporated in the strategic plan relating to the improvement of the Group’s operating
profitability.
In line with its commitment to expand its activities in the US sports betting market, INTRALOT,
through its subsidiary, INTRALOT, Inc., has signed a five-year contract with the Ohio Lottery to
implement its INTRALOT Orion Sportsbook solution. In particular, INTRALOT is already utilizing the
current lottery equipment and infrastructure to facilitate the sports betting journey for retailers and
customers throughout the state of Ohio.
In terms of contract renewals, in 2022 INTRALOT extended its existing contract with La Marocaine
Des Jeux et des Sports (MDJS) for one additional year, with the contract now expiring at the end of
2023, while the contract with Magnum Corporation Sdn BhD was extended for two additional years,
contract now expiring in June 2024. In addition, INTRALOT, Inc., has signed a 5-year extension of
its contract with the Wyoming Lottery Corporation whereby the Company will continue to provide its
lottery operating system and services for the operation of the Wyoming Lottery Corporation through
to August 2029. Finally, INTRALOT’s cooperation with OPAP S.A. in the field of numerical lottery
products and services was extended for an additional year until the end of July 2025 with the
possibility of further extension of such cooperation for one (1) additional year.
In terms of the Group’s financial position, following the balance sheet optimization completed in
2021, 2022 could be characterized as a period of intense efforts to further optimize the capital
structure and create value for all shareholders, in line with the commitments of the Company's
Management. To this end, the Share Capital Increase of approximately €129 million by payment in
cash and with pre-emption rights in favor of the existing shareholders of the Company was
successfully planned and executed in July. As part of this process, a new strategic investor joined
the Group’s shareholder base. Standard General Management, LLC, through its wholly owned
subsidiary, CQ Holding Company Inc., now renamed CQ Lottery LLC, has acquired 32,90% of the
total voting rights of INTRALOT SA for a consideration of approximately €71 million. As an established
player in the US market, the participation of the new investor provides a strong foundation for
leveraging new opportunities in the US and the global markets to which the Group has access.
Focusing mainly on the US market, the Group has strengthened its presence by using a large portion
of the Share Capital Increase to buy back from the minority shareholders the percentage offered to
the 2024 Noteholders through the Debt-to-Equity offering completed in 2021, thus acquiring control
of 100% of the shares of INTRALOT, Inc., and, consequently, full control of the cash flow of the

depreciation and amortization (EBITDA), amounted to €122,9 million, exhibiting an increase of
11,3%, as the organic growth boosted by the full contribution of our new contract in Croatia, the
return of our operations in Australia to pre COVID-19 levels and the continued cost containment
initiatives at HQ perimeter managed to fully absorb the impact from the license expiration in Malta
on early July 2022. EBITDA increase was also affected by the positive FX impact of currency
movements across many key markets (mainly USA and Australia). On top of the above, our earnings
before taxes (EBT) decreased to €29,8 million from €37,1 million in 2021 mainly impacted by a one-
off gain from the successful optimization of our capital structure amounted to €88,5 million that

€36,7 million in 2022, while earnings after tax amounted to €-18,6 million, from €27,8 million in

that concluded within 3Q21.
In 2022, group Operating Cash-flow from total operations posted a decrease and stood at €96,3
million, versus €107,6 million in 2021. The decrease of €11,3m is mainly impacted by the unfavorable
working capital movement due to timing and the negative variance from tax payments, attributed to
the income tax return received on behalf of the parent company the prior year.

31st, 2021. Recent restructuring actions along with delivery of healthy cash flows resulted in the

Economic Conditions
Economies around the world are navigating through a challenging period of inflationary pressures
and rising interest rates that weigh on economic growth and create a wide range of implications on
businesses. Increased interest rates have a direct impact on the financing servicing costs of the
Intralot Group, while the outlook is that central banks will not start to ease their monetary policy
before the end of 2023.
High inflation levels are tightening financial conditions in most regions, impacting most industries.
The indirect effects on our Group’s business activities from the flagging economic growth and the
increase in operating expenses due to wage inflation pressures cannot be overlooked.
The geopolitical tension arising from the war in Ukraine with the energy crisis, the supply chain
disruptions and the rising inflation are factors that are expected to determine the economic outlook.
Although our Group does not have exposure in terms of operations or dependency on suppliers in
Ukraine and Russia, the potential risks from the reduction in the household disposable income and
the possible increase in operating expenses due to inflationary pressures cannot be overlooked.
The Management of the Company closely monitors geopolitical and economic developments and is
ready to take all the necessary measures for protecting its operations.

expanding our iLottery offering, to provide more personalized player experiences and deliver
engaging iLottery content across player segments.
Our R&D efforts have resulted in numerous industry awards and distinctions as well as multiple
technology patents certifying our innovation capability. We are confident that our technology
continues to lead the market as our next generation solutions are already receiving significant market
traction, with contract extensions and new contracts in Europe, North America and beyond.

Research & Development” (

).
Expand our footprint in strategic markets & maintain portfolio diversification
The second element of our strategy is to maintain and expand our contract base with our main focus
being the US market, the current epicenter of industry developments with sports betting and iLottery
regulation evolving across States, while our business development efforts underpin our strategic shift
from emerging markets to mature markets, like North America and Europe.
Since the overturning of PASPA, we have developed appropriate plans to increase our sports betting
footprint in the US, in partnership with our strategic State Lottery clients, and in this sense our
legislative priority is to promote lottery-run sports betting across States. Our current US Lottery
footprint provides us a path to 10 States and the District of Columbia, with a vast addressable
population, and it is our strategic intent to leverage this unique opportunity to create sustainable
value. We believe that the Sports Betting contracts concluded in recent years with State lotteries a
momentum which continued in 2022 with the Ohio State Lottery sports betting contract provide us
with the perfect platform to deliver on this strategic objective.
Our existing Sports Betting operations
in US continue to perform consistently, which proves that our strategy is bearing fruit.
Moreover, in order to maintain the diversification of our contract base in the rest of the world, we
remain vigilant for other opportunities worldwide which we will pursue through partnerships with
trusted local partners, in order to benefit from their leverage and understanding of the local market
dynamics. This approach also provides for sharing financial and operational risks, reducing capital
expenditures, and improving access to local funding and for these reasons we are deliberate and
strategic in the selection of our partners in all such ventures.
Currently our business is well-diversified across the three core business activities of technology and
support services, management contracts and licensed operations. We currently have operations in
39 jurisdictions with 52 active contracts.

2022, Greek entities represented only 3,7% (2,0% from clients based in Greece) of our revenue.
Furthermore, we benefit from the growing share of contracts in developed markets in our portfolio,
INTRALOT Group
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31,
2022

where we benefit from stable recurring revenue through long-term contracts. We believe that our
concentration on mature and resilient markets allows us to mitigate risks that are specific to certain
markets and regions as well as the cyclical nature of the sports gaming industry. Moreover, we
benefit from strong contract diversity including: 50 technology and support services contracts, which
comprised 73,5% of our revenue net of payout during the twelve months ended December 31, 2022;
two (2) management contracts, which comprised 14,7% of our revenue net of payout during the
same period; and two (2) licenses, which comprised 11,8% of our revenue net of payout during the
same period.
Value creation driven by increased cash flow generation, margin expansion and
improving longer-term revenue visibility
A key component of our sustainable growth strategy is to improve our cash flow trajectory through
the strategic and proactive management of our long-term contracts. We selectively seek to maintain
and enter long-term contracts, that match our stringent profitability and cash generation targets.
These contracts are often for higher margin business activities, such as providing expanded facilities
management or managed services.
We continuously evaluate the profitability of our existing contracts and have selectively disengaged
less profitable contracts. We also aim to enhance revenue visibility and expected cash flow by
entering long-term contracts providing recurring revenue stream stability.
For the year ended December 31, 2022, we estimate that approximately 45,0% (excluding extension
options) of the adjusted revenue for the period was generated through multi-year contracts or
renewable licenses that are available to us until 2027 (although actual revenue that may be
generated in the future from those contracts may increase or decrease). If we take into consideration
the extension options of our contracts, revenue visibility increases to approximately 58,0% until
2027. Adjusted revenue for the revenue visibility estimation, refer to FY22 revenue adjusted for the
contribution of contract discontinuations and one-off revenue recognitions within 2022.
Disciplined capital allocation aimed to optimize our capital structure
By prolonging our existing contract base in strategic markets and by pursuing opportunities and
entering new markets through local partnerships, we aim to reduce our capital expenditures, increase
our operational margins, and obtain access to local financing with more favorable terms.
In addition, following the increased CAPEX requirements of previous years for new contracts
implementation, we seek to maintain a modest financial and growth investment policy focused on
strong liquidity. In addition, we intend to have a disciplined capital expenditure policy with regards
to undertaking projects that meet our investment-return criteria.
Unwavering Commitment to Responsible Gaming, Social responsibility & Integrity
For us, responsible gaming, social responsibility, and integrity is not merely a strategy. These
principles are weaved into the company fabric, and we promote them throughout our global
INTRALOT Group
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31,
2022

operations in any type of engagement. This unwavering commitment, which has been adopted since
the company foundation, is essential for building trust with State Lotteries and competent Authorities
and in turn for renewing our existing contracts and winning new ones with lottery and gaming
organizations in the State-sponsored gaming sphere. Our State Lottery customers and their
Regulators require us to conduct our business with all due integrity and to provide our games securely
and responsibly, and we deliver on these expectations by keeping responsible gaming and player
protection front and center of our thinking.
Financial Review
Financial Highlights
1
On an organic level, the Group’s performance was boosted by the full contribution of our new contract
in Croatia, the return of our operations in Australia to pre COVID-19 levels and the continued cost
containment initiatives at HQ perimeter, fully offsetting the impact from the license expiration in
Malta on early July 2022. EBITDA increase was also affected by the positive FX impact of currency
movements across many key markets (mainly USA and Australia), posting a 11,3% year over year
increase and reaching €122,9 million, from €110,4 million in 2021.

Revenue, GGR, EBITDA, EBT and NIATMI
Reported consolidated revenue posted a decrease compared to FY21, leading to a total revenue for
the twelve-month period ended December 31, 2022, of €392,8 million (-5,1%).
•
Lottery Games was the largest contributor to our top line, comprising 63,8% of our revenue,
followed by Sports Betting, contributing 14,6%, to Group turnover. VLTs accounted for
12,0% and Technology contracts represented 9,3% of Group turnover, while Racing
constituted 0,3% of total revenue for FY22.
Reported consolidated revenue for the twelve-month period is lower by €-21,2 million year over year.
The main factors that drove top line performance per Business Activity are:
•
€-43,7 million (-32,9%) from our Licensed Operations (B2C) activity line, with the decrease
attributed to lower revenue in Malta (€-51,5 million or -54,0% y-o-y; license expiration early
July 2022), in part offset by higher revenue in Argentina (€+7,7 million or +20,5% y-o-y;
driven by local market growth).
•
€+19,5 million (+8,3%) from our Technology and Support Services (B2B/ B2G) activity line,
with the increase attributed to US operations (€+8,9 million; positively affected by the EUR
depreciation), Croatia (€+5,8 million; driven by the full contribution of our new contract in
late April 2021), Australia (€+5,7 million; triggered by the return from COVID-19 related
slowdown) and a negative impact in other jurisdictions (€-0,9 million; due to services related
sales).
•
€+3,1 million (+6,5%) from our Management (B2B / B2G) contracts activity line, with the
increase driven by Bilyoner in Turkey (€+1,7 million; due to the online market growth),
Morocco (€+0,9 million; led by market growth) and US Sports Betting in Montana and
Washington D.C. (€+0,4 million).
Gross Gaming Revenue (GGR)
from continuing operations posted an increase of 2,6% (€+8,6
million to €343,9 million) year over year, driven by:
•
the increase in the non-payout related GGR (€+23,9 million vs. FY21), following the improved
performance across most key regions, followed by
•
the decrease in the payout related GGR (€-15,3 million vs. FY21), arising mainly from the
lower sales in Malta (-35,2% y-o-y on wagers from Licensed Operations
5
). FY22 Average
Payout Ratio
6
was lower by 2,6pps vs. LY (58,7% vs. 61,3%), significantly affected by the
weighted contribution from our operations in Malta.

Licensed Operations Revenue also include a small portion of non-Payout related revenue, i.e. value-added
services, which totalled €6,1m and €4,7m for FY22 and FY21 respectively.

Payout ratio calculation excludes the IFRS 15 impact for payments to customers.

ended higher by €3,7 million (or +3,9%) in FY22 (€99,8 million vs.

perimeter.
Other Operating Income
from continuing operations ended at €24,9 million, presenting an
increase of 15,2% y-o-y (or €+3,3 million), driven by higher equipment lease income in the USA.
EBITDA

amounted to €122,9 million in FY22, posting an increase of 11,3% (or €+12,4 million)
compared to FY21. This growth was driven by the improved operating performance across most
markets and the continuous cost containment initiatives.
On a yearly basis,
EBITDA margin on sales
improved to 31,3% (+4,6pps from 26,7% in FY21)
following the improved margins.
Earnings before Tax
in FY22 amounted to €29,8m largely driven by the significant EBITDA
contribution, the lower interest expenses, and the gains on net monetary position, while D&A
remained at the same levels with the prior year. Compared to FY21, Earnings before Tax posted a
decrease of €7,3m, mainly due to the balance sheet optimization transactions one-off impact in the
prior year.
NIATMI
(
Net Income After Tax and Minority Interest
) from continuing operations in FY22 concluded
at €6,3 million, compared to €26,6 million in FY21. NIATMI from total operations in FY22 amounted
to €11,9 million (lower by €5,6 million vs. a year ago). The positive variance of €5,6 million between
continued and total operations is a result of our participation disposal in Taiwan.

Our Key Gaming Markets Performance

United States and Canada
In the United States, we provide technology and support services to state lotteries through our
subsidiary Intralot Inc., which was established in December 2001. We are one of the only three
vendors who hold contracts with the state lotteries for the supply of online gaming systems, retailer
communication networks, and point of sale equipment, such as terminals and vending machines. We
became the first non-U.S. company to win a tender for the supply of lottery systems, when we won
a contract to supply the Nebraska state lottery in 2003. Intralot Tech, a 100% subsidiary of Intralot
Inc., was established in 2019 as USA’s development hub in Greece and complements its existing
central functions in Atlanta and Mason.
In the continental US, we currently operate 11 contracts in 11 states, holding contracts for the supply
and operation of online lottery gaming systems in Illinois, Ohio, Louisiana, Arkansas, New Hampshire,
Idaho, Wyoming, Montana, New Mexico and Washington, D.C. We also hold a contract for the
provision of central monitoring services for more than 29.000 Coin Operated Amusement Machines
in Georgia. In Ohio, in addition to providing the central systems, terminals, equipment, vending
machines and retailer network communications, we also provide central monitoring services for seven
racinos operating video lottery terminals (VLTs). Furthermore, in May 2019 INTRALOT entered in the
Canadian market through a new contract with the British Columbia Lottery Corporation, which
operates lottery on behalf of the Government of British Columbia, for the provision of software,
hardware, and support services.
2020 marked the year when INTRALOT broke ground in the newly regulated and prominent US Sports
Betting market. In early May, “Sports Bet Montana” in Montana of USA was launched. INTRALOT
deployed in Montana its new INTRALOT Orion sports betting platform to enable the Montana Lottery’s
sports wagering self-service terminals and mobile sports wagering offering. In addition, INTRALOT
provides to the Montana Lottery a complete suite of services, such as Managed Trading and Marketing
Services (MTMS) and Customer Support (CS). Then, in early June 2022, the Digital Sports Betting
solution in Washington, DC, was also launched. INTRALOT, as part of its current contract with the
DC Lottery, deployed its new INTRALOT Orion sports betting platform to enable the GambetDC mobile
and desktop sports betting offering. Finally, on December 20th, 2022, INTRALOT signed a five-year
contract with the Ohio Lottery to implement its INTRALOT Orion Sportsbook solution. The project
went live in January 2023.
We have a strong track record in renewing and extending our contracts in the US, thus securing a
long-term presence in the country. More specifically, in July 2018, Intralot announced a five-year
extension to its current gaming systems contract with the New Hampshire Lottery Commission,
through June 2025. In addition, in November 2018, we renewed our contract with the New Mexico

Lottery for 2 more years, up to November 2025. In October 2020, a contract extension was signed
through 2029 to continue Intralot Inc.’s six-year partnership with the Georgia Lottery Corporation,
providing advanced services for the operation of its COAM (Coin Operated Amusement Machines)
project. One more development as per contracts extension was realized in June 2021, with the
renewal of the existing contract with the Ohio Lottery Commission until June 2023. Furthermore, in
late 2021, Intralot Inc. renewed the current contract with the Wyoming Lottery until August 2029.
Additionally, in late March 2022, Intralot Inc. extended the existing contract with the Montana Lottery
up to March 2026.
In 2022, our sales in the United States reached €163,4 million, posting an increase of 6,0%, over
the prior year, when our revenue amounted to €154,1 million. Sales were positively affected by the
EURUSD movement (-11.0% versus a year ago – in average terms). In local currency, current year
results posted a -5.7% y-o-y decrease mainly due to lower merchandise sales. Revenue of the United
States and Canada for the twelve months ended December 31, 2022 represented 41,6% of the
Group’s total revenue.

Greece
In Greece, we provide technology support and support services for the operation of private gaming
and the lottery through Intralot S.A., our parent company. Originally incorporated in Athens in 1992,
we won our first domestic contract in 1993. We currently operate three contracts in Greece.
As the center of our Global operations, Greece is also home to our betting-trading center that controls
our global fixed odds betting activity, and significant research and development programs
(Technology Hub), as well as our corporate Headquarters which supports the wider INTRALOT
ecosystem, employing approx. 400 employees at the end of December 31
st
, 2022. As such,
Headquarters expenses serve the different projects of INTRALOT S.A, including among others the
Greek projects, but most of the effort is distributed towards servicing and supporting the pipeline of
won and upcoming contracts, as well as supporting INTRALOT’s subsidiaries and R&D efforts.
Our relationship with Greek Organization of Football Prognostics S.A. (OPAP) began in 1999. On July
31
st
, 2018, the old OPAP contract ended, and the two parties continue their cooperation under a new
contract, specifically in the field of numerical lotteries games, resulting in a smaller contract value
due to the limited scope. The new contract is a 3-year contract that also includes an option for OPAP
to renew for an additional two years. On January 14
th
, 2021, INTRALOT announced the extension of
its partnership with OPAP. More specifically, OPAP exercised its two-year extension option of the
contract with INTRALOT for the continuation of the collaboration of the two companies in the field of
numerical lotteries and services from August 2021 to July 2023.
Furthermore, on December 2, 2021,
we extended our current contract with OPAP for an additional year, up to 31
st
of July 2024.
Additionally, in July 2022, the existing contract with OPAP was further extended until 31
st
of July
2025 with a one-year extension option. These extensions allow INTRALOT to continue providing its
state-of-the-art Lottery Solution, that incorporates its novel core platform “LotosX”, launched with
great success in 2019, along with several other components and high-quality services.
In the first half of 2021, INTRALOT sold its 20% stake in Intralot de Peru SAC for a cash consideration
of USD21 million to Nexus Group, along with a three-year extension of its current contract with
Intralot de Peru SAC through 2024, related to the provision of gaming technology and support
services. The net cash consideration, after taxes and transaction expenses, amounted to USD16,2
million.
Revenue from Greek operations in 2022 was €14,5 million, compared to €13,4 million in the
respective period of the prior year, accounting for 3,7% of the Group’s total revenue in the twelve
months ended December 31, 2022.

Looking Ahead
The lottery, sports betting and VLT monitoring industries operated by INTRALOT, following the ease
of the COVID-19 pandemic measures in 2021, have gradually returned to their pre-pandemic
performance and growth trajectories. Today, these industries are presenting significant growth
opportunities, mainly enabled by the value that has been unlocked by new technologies and the wide
adoption of online services, which were significantly promoted during the pandemic, ensuring
centralized control and promoting responsible gaming, as well as the transparency, security and

integrity of the gaming experience. Digital technology evolution, in combination with regulatory
initiatives towards market liberalization and the regulation of previously restricted forms of gaming,
as well as the changes in player demographics and their spending habits and the digital adoption as
influenced by new technologies, all set the pace of accelerated change.
INTRALOT has all the resources and foundations for a successful course and expects to reap the
benefits of its strategy to invest in digital transformation technologies. Leveraging our leading
position in the provision of Lottery and Sports Betting technology and services, held for two decades,
INTRALOT is intensifying its strategic focus in order to capitalize on the new value created in recent
years by strengthening its online portfolio and increasing demand in the iLottery sector from state
Lotteries in the US and the rest of the world. Technology will be the key enabler towards business
innovation. Our technology is not only highly innovative, but it is also easily scalable, interoperable,
and extensible. Seamless omni-channel player experiences, cost optimization, fast time-to-market,
market reactiveness and all other drivers of increased sales and profitability can be improved by
using our technology as an enabler.
In this context, INTRALOT’s organizational structure evolves with the aim of enhancing its delivery
capabilities and creating a customer-centric service delivery organization, backed by a strong finance
division and an extrovert commercial arm.
Through 2023 we look forward to further engagements to implement projects with our new Lotos X
and INTRALOT ORION platforms, monitoring systems and industry-leading terminal solutions, and to
benefit from the industry appeal of our latest digital solutions powered by our enhanced online
capabilities.
In the US lottery market, which has become a key part of our future growth strategy, we intend to
leverage our position and the strengths of our strategic subsidiary, INTRALOT Inc.
To this end, we
strongly pursue to implement and operate sports betting for our Lottery customers and beyond, and
our performance in Washington DC and Montana proves our capability to successfully operate sports
betting in the growing US Sports betting market, as sports betting legislation advances in more
States where we currently operate and the post-COVID-19 Lottery market shows strong signs of
positive structural change due to new player behaviors and preferences.
The recent launch of the
new Sports Betting project in Ohio, USA further demonstrates INTRALOT's ability to implement and
operate similar projects in challenging markets. In addition, significant growth prospects are
presented in the US VLT monitoring market, which INTRALOT will carefully evaluate in the future by
leveraging its experience in successfully managing two such important projects in Georgia and Ohio,
USA. Finally, the Group's Management will selectively evaluate projects that may offer growth
opportunities in other markets outside the US in its areas of activity, as it has already demonstrated
its ability to respond successfully to the implementation of such projects by leveraging the network
of partnerships it owns or is developing around the world.
A primary enabler of sustainable growth is the further improvement of our capital structure in a way
that will be consistent with our strategy to create long-term value for all stakeholders of the company.
We remain focused on our mission to best address the needs of our customers with state-of-the-art

Economic Sustainability, Responsible Gaming,
Societal Support, Governance and Compliance, Employee Wellbeing
. The Company is
dedicated to following the most effective sustainability practices and regularly evaluating its progress.
INTRALOT Group
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31,
2022

INTRALOT aims to ensure that it operates in a manner both ethical and compliant with regulations,
while also prioritizing the wellbeing of its employees. Responsible Gaming is a critical aspect of the
Company's sustainability strategy, as INTRALOT seeks to ensure that its gaming products are safe
and do not contribute to addiction or other negative outcomes. Additionally, the Company is
committed to minimizing its environmental impact through various sustainability initiatives and
reducing its carbon footprint. Finally, INTRALOT aims to contribute to the greater good of society by
supporting local communities and promoting social responsibility through various corporate social
responsibility (CSR) programs. By focusing on these key areas, INTRALOT aims to create sustainable
long-term value for all its stakeholders while also fulfilling its commitment to social and
environmental responsibility. The Company's actions will be further elaborated in the Sustainable
Development Report, which is set to be published in May 2023. The report will provide information
on the Company's sustainable practices and initiatives covering topics as corporate governance,
employee relations, Responsible Gaming, and community engagement among others.
Corporate Responsibility Governance
The CEO, who also acts as the Chairman of the Board, bears the ultimate responsibility for Corporate
Responsibility and Sustainability Strategy within the organization. Yet the Board meetings at present
do not involve any discussions on matters related to Corporate Responsibility. Being a socially
responsible Company, INTRALOT aims to incorporate sustainable development and corporate
responsibility topics into the Board of Directors' agenda in 2023. The Deputy CEOs within the
Company hold the responsibility of demonstrating leadership and dedication to the principles of
Corporate Responsibility. The Corporate Affairs Director is accountable for the oversight of planning,
execution, and assessment of the Corporate Responsibility, as well as coordinating and assessing the
Responsible Gaming initiatives of the Company. Company principles are managed at an operational
level by the Corporate Affairs Department, whereas the Corporate Affairs Director collaborates with
the Directors of Operations, as well as other Divisions within the Company to promote the
implementation of corporate responsibility practices.
Stakeholder Engagement
To achieve our sustainability goals, operate efficiently and responsibly and mitigate risks, it is
essential to engage with internal and external stakeholders. As a Company, INTRALOT identifies
those interested groups that are affected by the Company's activities and, in turn, those that directly
or indirectly affect the Company. The Company works to reinforce and broaden its stakeholder
engagement process with the goal of cultivating trust-based relationships and improving
transparency. The types of channels and the frequency and engagement methods will be presented
in the Sustainable Development Report of INTRALOT in May 2023.

the applicable Greek legislation and international best practices. The Company has voluntarily
adopted the Hellenic Corporate Governance Code 2021 and incorporated its principles in its Corporate
Governance Code. Our Corporate Governance policy reflects our commitment to ethical and
responsible decision making by our top management and directors, to ensure our organization’s
sustainable growth and the long-term welfare of shareholders and stakeholders. The Board of
Directors and its established committees follow these principles to oversee the Company's
operations, along with its subsidiaries and joint ventures across regions. The Board of Directors has
also established committees with supervisory and advisory authorities. For further details, refer to
the Corporate Governance Statement in the following chapters of Annual Report.
Code of Corporate Governance
INTRALOT believes that proper corporate governance creates the framework for increased
transparency and reduced cases of corruption or bribery.
The Company abides by a set of regulations
consisting of controls, rules, and procedures, which are structured into three layers. Additionally, the
Greek legislation, the 2004 publication of the OECD corporate governance, and the Hellenic
Federation of Enterprises (SEV) Code of Corporate Governance for Listed Companies are also
considered of significant importance. In addition, the widely accepted principles of corporate
governance as applied by countries of the European Union are followed by the Company. In total,
adherence to these rules brings about greater transparency for the Company’s operations, clarity for
stakeholders, and a more lucid image of the Company for shareholders.

operation. To ensure the protection of personal data, the Company has established a policy and
implemented an Information Security Management System that is certified according to the ISO/IEC

27001 international standard. This demonstrates the Company's commitment to safeguarding
personal data and implementing the necessary controls and procedures to maintain the
confidentiality, integrity, and availability of information assets. The Privacy Data Protection Policy
establishes various principles, rules, procedural and technical controls. The Policy serves as the
foundation for the Company's Data Protection Framework, which encompasses Privacy Good
Practices, Enterprise Risk Management Framework, Data Privacy Impact Assessments, Cyber and
Information Security Frameworks. This framework helps the Company identify Information Security
needs, uphold Data Protection and define incident detection, response, and recovery processes to
respect and protect data subjects' rights in multiple dimensions. The Data Protection Framework
complies with the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), which serves as the minimum
Privacy Standard for the entire Company. All of INTRALOT's products and projects undergo strict
adherence to the Privacy and Security Controls from their design phase (Privacy by Design).
Additionally, INTRALOT implements a specific process for all employees to report any violation of
personal information to the highest corporate level (C-level) promptly.

associates, including third parties. It establishes a framework of principles and values that should
govern their professional behavior, reflecting the Company's fundamental principles, corporate
culture, business ethics, and ethical commitments. The Code places emphasis on combating
corruption and bribery issues. INTRALOT ensures that all its employees receive comprehensive
training on the Code of Conduct through various channels, including e-Learning platforms, email
communication, and induction training programs. The Code is regularly reinforced through employee
briefings and remains an integral part of all employee contracts, irrespective of their job designation
or level.
INTRALOT Group
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31,
2022
48
The Company emphasizes on the importance of complying with the Code and mandates that all
employees and managers follow it without exception. Additionally, all employees are required to
report any instances of Code violations, conflicts of interest, or legal violations, either anonymously
or by disclosing their identity to the Human Resources Department through telephone or email.
INTRALOT takes all reports seriously and ensures the confidentiality of the reporting employee. The
Company investigates all potential breaches of the Code thoroughly. In the case of a conflict of
interest, employees must report it to their supervisor or Director, who will discuss it with them and
take appropriate action.
Anti-Corruption policy
The Company values honesty and integrity in its management practices and business transactions,
while it aims to uphold its positive reputation. Therefore, the Company is committed to preventing
and combatting corruption in all its forms by adhering to anti-corruption laws in all of the regions
where it operates. This includes complying with the Greek National Strategic Plan Against Corruption
(NSPAC), as well as the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA), the U.K. Bribery Act (UKBA), and
other anti-bribery laws in order to avoid violations and proactively identify and address potential
issues in a timely manner.
INTRALOT has developed and adopted an Anti-Corruption policy at a Company level which is
mandatory for all employees highlighting the Company’s principles on corruption, procurement and
bidding, merger and acquisition transactions, gifts and entertainment, and political contributions.
Employees are encouraged to report any suspicion of bribery or corruption to the Company's Legal
Department or the Head of the Business Unit, by providing their name or choosing to remain
anonymous. The Human Resources Department and the Internal Audit Unit are available to receive
respective reports. Furthermore, the Company has received an ISO 37001 certification for its Anti-
Bribery Management System, which includes measures to prevent, detect, and address bribery, as
well as ensure transparency in transactions. The certification for the ISO 37001 gives our
stakeholders confidence that the organization has implemented effective measures to continually
improve in combatting bribery issues. This makes INTRALOT one of the few externally certified
companies in the gaming industry worldwide. Additionally, INTRALOT has signed a Memorandum of
Understanding and joined the Business Integrity Forum, which is an initiative launched by
Transparency International - Greece network.
Additional to its policy, the Company following the best anti-corruption has incorporated in all supplier
agreements anti-corruption contractual clauses to ensure the adherence to the relevant legislation.
However, such clauses are not present in contracts with customers as they are either state lotteries
or privately licensed companies. In this context, INTRALOT continuously endeavors to collect the
necessary evidence, prior to any settlement of business relationship and according to the legislative
framework, to be able to determine whether a future partner fits its culture and operates ethically
and in compliance with applicable regulations. Therefore, the Company conducts a thorough
corruption risk assessment by performing due diligence on its business partners, including agents,
consultants, suppliers, intermediaries, consortium or joint venture partners, contractors or major
sub-contractors, and distributors before engaging in any business relationship. If due diligence

2022

findings are not satisfactory, the Company refrains from any business activity. The due diligence
processes are established also during mergers and acquisitions, and before the finalization of relevant
transactions. Being consistent to its anti-corruption principles, the Company follows a standardized
internal auditing procedure, performed annually to assess its business units for relevant risks and
monitor high risk areas.
Anti-Money Laundering Guidelines
In order to ensure that its global operations are not being used for money laundering purposes, the
Company has formulated a comprehensive set of guidelines that incorporate the essential elements
of its anti-money laundering framework. The framework contains a set of measures and guidelines
that provide advice on implementing these principles effectively. By adhering to these guidelines,
the Company can minimize the risk of its products being unwittingly used for money laundering and
thus maintain its reputation, credibility, and stability within the gaming and lotteries community
worldwide. It is mandatory for all employees to comply with the anti-money laundering guidelines,
as it is a Company policy.

environmental performance. To demonstrate its commitment to environmental management and
protection, the Company has implemented a series of mitigation actions. The Company is committed
to minimize its environmental impact and promote responsible resource management. The
Company’s environmental commitments can be found in its Code of Conduct. It is expected that

performance by implementing a comprehensive Environmental Management System, ISO
14001:2015 that records the impact of its activities and enables timely measures to be taken.
A procedure for monitoring environmental legislation has been established to ensure adherence to
applicable national and international laws and regulations. As part of Company’s Risk Management
Assessment, regular environmental impact assessments are conducted to methodically identify and
evaluate the environmental impact of the Company's activities, taking into account both the severity
and likelihood of such impact. In this respect the Company has assigned an Environmental Risk
Officer to supervise environmental risks, recommend changes to the EMS, and ensure proper
comprehension and execution.
Energy and Emissions
Even though INTRALOT does not have an established long-term strategy for emissions reduction, it
undertakes various activities to decrease energy consumption and CO2 emissions. The Company
monitors fuel usage from leased vehicles with the use of fuel cards, and utilizes energy-efficient LED
lamps and photoelectric cells to minimize energy use. Additionally, a Building Management System
(BMS) has been installed, allowing proactive actions for automatic shutdown when necessary.
INTRALOT regularly measures and reports its greenhouse gas emissions and is working towards more
environmentally friendly IT solutions by increasing its use of virtualized environments and cloud
solutions for IT and development services. This approach replaces stand-alone and physical servers,
resulting in energy savings and reduced carbon dioxide emissions.
Waste and Materials
INTRALOT has implemented several sustainability measures to reduce its environmental impact. It
complies with the Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directive and the Waste Electrical and
Electronic Equipment Directive, by using central printers and controlling the printing volume to
reduce paper usage. Additionally, to the initiatives in responsible management of resources,
INTRALOT has replaced plastic cups with glass cups to reduce waste. Recycling bins are available for
various materials, i.e., paper, aluminum cans, plastic cans and bottles, batteries and light bulbs while
all liquid waste is directed to public waste networks. INTRALOT uses environmentally friendly
refrigerants and does not use hazardous cleaning materials or critical raw materials. Also, it raises
employee awareness through internal communication means, i.e., email, corporate intranet portal,
posters and implements internal awareness campaigns to reduce energy consumption and waste.
Water management
INTRALOT recognizes the importance of water scarcity and the increased demand for water and
monitors closely its water usage on its premises. The Company relies solely on public water supply
networks and utility companies to minimize any impact on other water sources. INTRALOT safely
disposes all liquid waste through the public waste network and avoids using any hazardous cleaning

LABOR AND SOCIAL ISSUES
Labor Issues
Policies & Due Diligence
Employee Code of Conduct
INTRALOT is committed to complying with the appropriate employment laws included within its Code
of Conduct. In accordance with the Presidential Decree 156/1994, all newly hired employees are
informed about their contract terms – something that is controlled by private law and drawn up upon
their recruitment.
Labor Rights
Employees are always treated with respect irrespective of whether they participate in employee
unions. It is noteworthy that 100% of INTRALOT employees are covered by the National Collective
Labor Agreement; also, all employees are notified for any operational changes, as INTRALOT abides
by the relevant legislation for minimum notice periods for operational changes.
INTRALOT respects collective bargaining agreements and safeguards the right of employees to
participate in working unions. It is the Company’s commitment to ensure the freedom of association
for its employees and their willingness to participate in labor actions, i.e., protests.
INTRALOT’s commitment to comply with the appropriate employment laws has been included within
its Code of Conduct. All newly hired employees are informed about their contract’s essential terms
in accordance with the provisions of the Presidential Decree 156/1994, which is governed by private
law and drawn up immediately upon their recruitment. Furthermore, the Company promptly resolves
employee matters in a mutually beneficial way, regardless of their participation in employee unions.

Wellbeing
INTRALOT continuously endeavors to promote a health work-environment of which work-life balance
is a vital element. As such, the Company promotes working hours according to legislation, both daily
and weekly and in accordance with their employment contract. Also, INTRALOT abides by the
standard overtime and additional remuneration for overtime, as described in regulation. The board
has oversight of overtimes and is in charge of approving or disapproving them. The Company adheres
to regulation when it comes to paid and unpaid leaves these may include normal leave, maternity
leave, and other reasons of absence. Such absences may also include work from home situations
where the employee may work remotely, at a maximum of four times per month.
Compensation and Benefits
According to the Compensation and benefits policy, all employees including part-time and temporary
employees have a defined salary level and benefits. This policy regulates the former as well as
providing performance-related remuneration to executive members, based on their job description,
accountability, responsibility that comes with their position, academic background, competencies,
professional experience, and performance. The latter is highly relevant to corporate strategy and the
achievement of corporate objectives.
Diversity and Equal Opportunities
Given the nature of the Company's operations, its staff is predominantly male. Nonetheless, the
Company has a firmly established policy to boost the participation of women in its firms across all
employment tiers. To achieve this objective, one measure is to document and track the distribution
of women by geographical area of operation, age, and job position. The ultimate goal is to increase
the proportion of female employees as a percentage of the overall workforce.
Training and Development
The Company strives to integrate employee training at all levels. Upon recruitment, employees are
oriented towards the gaming industry and INTRALOT. It is also important for the Company to train
employees in Responsible Gaming principles, which as noted earlier form a cornerstone for the
Company. In a similar course of action, INTRALOT has established a corporate induction program
which is also to be followed in conjunction with the Induction handbook which is available in the
corporate intranet portal. In higher levels, the Company is poised with extending the executives’
educational background, by offering specialized trainings to familiarize them with cross-departmental
processes and operations.
The Training policy comes in parallel with the annual training plan, as part of the annual performance
evaluation. This essentially means that managers are responsible of identifying the development
needs of each employee, setting novel goals for their development, and in a sense creating a more
nuanced individual development plan for each employee. It has to be noted that this plan is
constantly updated, and employee performance recorded. This allows for a big-picture theorization
of all employees’ individual development plans, which in turns calls for role-based training programs
INTRALOT Group
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31,
2022
55
that include development programs for managerial positions or specific technical skills training for
technical roles. All of the above are in close relevance to INTRALOT’s strategic direction, past training
needs, as well as market trends and best practices.
Health and Safety
INTRALOT is committed to complying with all relevant health and safety laws. As such, the Company
has introduced health and safety principles according to the provisions of the Code of Conduct, in a
way that enables the Company to protect its employees and ensure a safe working-environment. All
employees are obligated to comply with the policy and their relevant work-position obligations.
INTRALOT periodically conducts working environment risk assessments to identify, manage, control
and minimize or eliminate potential health and safety risks. For this reason, the Company has
assigned a building coordinator for each facility, who regularly evaluates workplace conditions,
usually in regard to infrastructure. INTRALOT also employs an external prevention agency that
evaluates workplaces and offers advice for preventive or corrective measures.
In 2022, INTRALOT managed to retain:
•
No employees with high incidence or risk of disease associated with their work within the
Company.
•
No cases of occupational disease within the Company.
•
No accidents or injuries.
•
No employee loss.
•
No relevant fines or sanctions imposed by the respective authorities.
Performance Management System
INTRALOT has established a thorough monitoring procedure to record employee performance. This
includes a systematic approach of identifying employee strengths, areas for improvement, and in
turn improving overall performance. As has been evident in multiple degrees within this report, the
performance management system is directly relevant to multiple cases of employee management,
training, or occupational health and safety. In risk management, the system is important in
minimizing the Company’s exposure to performance-related risks, which include employees not
attaining their full potential, or employees being managed in a non-optimal way. INTRALOT has
established a systematic dialogue with its employees to minimize such a risk, either in the form of
intranet portal, e-mail announcements, open-door policies, or HR communication with employees.
This pattern of holistic communication creates a framework of increased feedback, better chances
for review, and in extension, a wider pattern of risk reduction.

Respect of Human Rights
Policies & Due Diligence
INTRALOT has established a firm approach towards safeguarding human rights. By adhering to the
needs of the United Nations and the legislation of the International Labor Organization (ILO), the
Company responds to the need for increased attention towards human rights. Based on the principles
imposed by these two organizations, INTRALOT has established its Code of Conduct as well as its
employment guide to fully integrate safeguarding of human rights within its operations Further, the
Internal Regulation Charter and Recruitment and Selection policy guarantees the imposition of such
core values, which employees are to follow with strict adherence. Equally important is the fact that
the Company has signed the United Nations Global Compact since 2009, which delineates its
commitments to refrain from activities that violate human rights, such as discrimination, harassment,
and any kind of violence.
The Company recognizes that human rights are to be safeguarded continuously, and strenuously.
However, it is a fact that human rights localize in multiple places within the Company’s operations,
and in turn have to be considered on all occasions. This means that risk management for human
rights ought to be integrated in all risk management procedures, and all sources of risk. Therefore,
INTRALOT utilizes its commitment to safeguard such rights and always ponders on them within its
operations.
Grievance mechanisms are set in place, which allows employees to seek justice for any harassments
they have suffered, or any instances of discrimination they may have been a victim of. It is worth
mentioning that the Company follows a meritocratic approach, which in turn means that INTRALOT
passionately believes that each employee is to be evaluated on their work-related merit, and not on
any other non-work-related trait. It is noteworthy that the Company does not tolerate any form of
retaliation from employees, which means that discontented employees are free to use the grievance
mechanism without fear for retribution.
Equal employment
Although INTRALOT has not formally implemented a diversity-related policy, it should be noted that
the Company is fully committed to its role as a haven for anti-discrimination, diversity, and equity.
According to the Code of Conduct employees are compelled to follow the Company’s driving values,
which bring about an environment of mutual respect and inclusiveness. Employees are assessed
based on their qualifications, skill, and performance, and are in no cases assessed by any other traits.
INTRALOT believes that each person’s inherent traits are sacred, and in no way related to their job-
performance. Therefore, the Company safeguards all employees for their traits of sexual preference,
sex, religion, ethnicity, or nationality, and commits to making an impact in that front.

Society
Policies & Due Diligence
Local communities and shared value
For INTRALOT, local communities pose a continuous challenge to the Company’s strategy and
business model. Local communities are a central facet of the Company’s activities, as such activities
are based on people and infrastructure. Local communities are always taken into consideration when
designating policies and strategies; it is the Company’s aim to provide for its neighboring
communities and in simple terms – give back to the community. INTRALOT has implemented a series
of initiatives to support its surrounding communities and in turn disseminating the value it receives
into outputs for society.
As an international organization, INTRALOT contemplates on its surrounding
national and local communities, and thus implements various initiatives to support them. “INTRALOT
– We Care a Lot” is a program that includes multiple activities and investments that bring back profits
to the community. At the same time INTRALOT takes into consideration the underprivileged people
within these groups, hence providing support for underprivileged children nationwide through
initiatives – in collaboration with NGOs and foundations.
In extension to that, INTRALOT is also vigilant to provide volunteering opportunities and employment
programs to national and local communities. Regarding the latter, the Company supports local
entrepreneurship by offering opportunities for young people to network with universities and
companies. INTRALOT has fused its business model with its ongoing volunteering opportunities and
sports events. This in turn means that the Company recognizes that such activities return value to
the community on a continual basis, and thus pose a significant aspect of the Company’s due
diligence process to give back to the community.
Safety of products and services
INTRALOT places significant emphasis on ensuring the safety of its products and services and
considers it a crucial component of its due diligence process. In 2021, the Company went through
an extensive independent assessment of its Responsible Gaming practices and products by a WLA
approved assessor, which resulted in the renewal of its Certificate of Alignment with World Lottery
Association (WLA) Responsible Gaming Framework for Associate members until 2024. This evaluation
covers all corporate functions related to game integrity and corporate conduct, and it acknowledges
INTRALOT's dedication and endeavors to establish a secure and supportive gaming environment,
22

INTRALOT Group
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31,
2022

preventing underage, illegal, problem gambling, or any other potential harm to society. The Company
as an Associate Member of WLA accords with the program of the Responsible Gaming Framework
and has the duty to:
•
Ensure that their products and services support the WLA Members' objective to ensure that
the interests of players and vulnerable groups in the WLA Members' jurisdictions are
protected.
•
Understand the needs and requirements of WLA Member's Responsible Gaming Program.
•
Ensure that relevant laws, regulations and responsibilities are met.
•
Develop appropriate practices taking into account relevant information and research.
•
Develop a better understanding of the social impact of gaming.
•
Drive the implementation of Responsible Gaming practices in all aspects of their own
activities and promote the implementation of RG practices for WLA members’ activities.
•
Provide the WLA Members with accurate and balanced information to enable informed choices
to be made about their gaming activities.
•
Continuously improve, and publicly report on their Responsible Gaming programs.
•
Continuously engage with their external stakeholders on all aspects of Responsible Gaming
that are relevant to their own operations and those of the WLA Members they supply to.
INTRALOT takes advantage of its due diligence mechanism to also grasp its full responsibility towards
people, and in conjunction to the services it offers. This means that the Company recognizes that
betting products have to be both safe and responsible, and that they must duly be a major part of
the due diligence mechanism. At the same time the Company is aware that protection of online
games has to be a top priority.
That said, INTRALOT strives to develop and distribute products that serve Responsible Gaming
principles. Products and services are not to create any dependency, and the platforms in which they
are practiced are to be both safe and protective of players. Players have the option of receiving
further support in terms of fair gaming experience: they can be prevented from excessive gaming
through various self-exclusion options, they can set their gaming budgets in a strict manner, or they
can be reminded for their excessive time in the gaming platform. Also, it has to be noted that
INTRALOT multicasts several suggestions or messages to truly promote the essence of Responsible
Gaming. INTRALOT places product safety at the top of its risk management process. INTRALOT also
utilizes the INTRALOT Responsible Gaming Designer tool (iRGD). This tool was produced in
collaboration with Athens Information Technology (AIT) and several independent scientists. Its aim
is to conduct social impact assessments per game, channel, or territory and as the name indicates,
assess the social impact of games based on their:
•
Structural characteristics: features that ensure the initiation, expansion, and maintenance of
playing over time.
•
Situational characteristics: features related to the gaming environment (e.g., retailer store,
internet, or mobile channel).
•
Responsible Gaming characteristics: features that may impact player gaming patterns (i.e.,
financial or time-related limits).

EU Taxonomy Disclosures
Introduction to the Regulation (EU) 2020/852
The Taxonomy Regulation (Regulation (EU) 2020/852), specifically Article 8, is a crucial aspect of
the European Commission's plan to direct investments towards a more sustainable economy, which
aligns with the EU's carbon neutrality goals by 2050. This regulation provides a system for
determining the environmental sustainability of activities and imposes reporting requirements.
Additionally, the EU has published the Climate Delegated Act, which supplements the Taxonomy
Regulation by establishing technical screening criteria for the first two environmental objectives:
climate change mitigation and climate change adaptation. The Climate Delegated Act identifies which
activities are eligible under the Taxonomy Regulation for these objectives.
Although the Taxonomy Regulation is intricate and continues to be refined, INTRALOT has assessed
its 2022 reporting period activities in line with the Taxonomy Regulation criteria, utilizing the
guidance and market insight that are currently available. It is important to note that this information
may be modified as the Taxonomy Regulation and related market practices evolve, and as we
undergo our scheduled alignment process in 2023.
Application of the Taxonomy Regulation to INTRALOT
INTRALOT Group is a gaming solutions supplier and operator, providing future-proof solutions to
licensed operators around the world. As part of the business model, the Group develops, maintains
and operates software services, including advanced technology, consultation and support in all
aspects of the lottery, betting and gaming industry’s daily operational functions.
The information included in the 2022 EU Taxonomy Disclosures report is based on the combined data
collected from INTRALOT SA and INTRALOT Inc. As a result, for the purpose of this report, both
entities will be referred to as INTRALOT. This disclosure covers both eligible and non-eligible
activities, as well as aligned and non-aligned ones, for the reporting period ending on 31 December
2022.
INTRALOT’s primary potentially eligible activity under the EU Taxonomy Regulation is
8.2. Computer
programming
,
consultancy and related activities
, which includes the following activities:
Providing expertise in the field of information technologies, including
writing, modifying, testing
and supporting software
; planning and designing computer systems that integrate computer
hardware, software and communication technologies; on-
site management and operation of
clients’ computer systems or data processing facilities; and other professional and technical
computer-related activities.
The specific activity can substantially contribute to the following environmental objective:
Climate
Change Adaptation
.
INTRALOT Group
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31,
2022
62
To significantly contribute to climate change adaptation, an economic activity should aim to mitigate
the adverse impacts of current or anticipated future climate risks on either itself, people, nature, or
assets. The European Commission's Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) on the Disclosures Delegated
Act, released in December, offer additional guidance on how to achieve this objective and outline two
relevant types of activities, that can equally have a meaningful impact:
Adapted activities
Enabling activities
Those
economic
activities
that
have
become
resilient
to
climate
change
by
adapting themselves to
all
material
climate
related risks.
Those activities that can enable others to make a significant contribution to
one of the six environmental objectives referred to in Article 9 of the
Taxonomy Regulation by providing adaptation solutions. It's essential to note
that an activity can only be considered enabling if it's explicitly stated in the
activity’s description.
After careful consideration, we have concluded that our activity belongs to the ‘adapted activities’.
The turnover generated from products and services related to an adapted activity cannot be
recognized for Taxonomy-eligibility, since once the activity has been made climate-resilient, the
turnover corresponding to that activity should no longer count as eligible. Capital expenditure
(CapEx) and operating expenditure (OpEx) related to our activity, 8.2.- Computer programming,
consultancy and related activities, can only count towards eligibility if a climate risk and vulnerability
assessment has been conducted, and an expenditure plan has been established to implement
adaptation solutions that mitigate the activity's most significant physical climate risks.
INTRALOT recognizes the significance of comprehending risks, including those related to climate
change. Hence, we conduct a yearly review of the risks that could have a direct impact on our
business and carry out a vulnerability analysis to identify the most crucial ones. The EU Taxonomy
Regulation has laid out a demanding process that demonstrates how an economic activity can
genuinely become resilient. As a result, we have set goals for the future and intend to fully comply
with the guidelines to showcase our adaptation efforts.
During this reporting period, we are unable to provide evidence of eligibility for CapEx and OpEx
related to our primary economic activity. However, we have concentrated our evaluation on expenses
for the output of other activities that meet the criteria for Taxonomy eligibility. This means that the
activities listed below qualify as the acquisition of a product or service that comes from Taxonomy-
eligible activities, other than our primary one.
Information on assessment of compliance with the Regulation (EU) 2020/852
INTRALOT has identified five eligible activities contributing to
Climate Change Mitigation
, as
derived from its Capital and Operational expenses
:
•
6.5. Transport by motorbikes, passenger cars and commercial vehicles,
•
6.6. Freight transport services by road,
•
7.3 Installation, maintenance and repair of energy efficiency equipment,
INTRALOT Group
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31,
2022
63
•
7.4 Installation, maintenance and repair of charging stations for electric vehicles in buildings
(and parking spaces attached to buildings),
•
7.7. Acquisition and ownership of buildings.
As we do not currently have sufficient data from our value chain, we are unable to claim alignment
for our eligible activities. As a result, the alignment percentages for this year's EU Taxonomy
assessment will be zero. We are committed to working with our suppliers in the coming years to
obtain the necessary information for the alignment assessment.
Avoiding double counting
Thanks to the diligent structure of our financial statements and the granular tagging of the CapEx
and OpEx accounts, INTRALOT can confidently confirm that double counting was avoided during the
EU Taxonomy compliance exercise.
Accounting Policy
The consolidated financial statements of INTRALOT Group have been prepared for the financial year
ended 31 December 2022 in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).
The following sections showcase information related to CapEx and OpEx of two of its subsidiaries:
INTRALOT S.A. and INTRALOT Inc., which were introduced earlier in this part of the report.
For the calculation of the eligibility KPIs we followed the approach as described below:
We examined our capital expenditure categories and included in the numerator, only the expenses
that are directly linked to the purchase of the output of the eligible activities, as listed above. In the
denominator we included the total capital expenses of INTRALOT.
We followed a similar approach for the calculation of the numerator of the eligible OpEx KPI as we
did for CapEx. Regarding the denominator, we carefully reviewed all OpEx categories of INTRALOT
and only included the ones that aligned with the guidelines specified in the Regulation, resulting in
the following cost categories:
•
Repair and Maintenance of software, hardware, buildings, furniture and cars
•
Operating leases for corporate vehicles, premises and other machinery
•
Day-to-day servicing of IT spare parts
Finally, given the restrictions previously mentioned, there is
no eligible turnover
for this year’s EU
Taxonomy assessment.

HUMAN RESOURCES
Our Best Asset
The Human Resources of a Company is acknowledged as its most important asset, providing it with competitive
advantage, thus, the policies pursued and the initiatives undertaken by INTRALOT and its subsidiaries abroad,
aim at effectively attracting, enhancing, motivating and retaining talent. The continuous efforts and
contribution of all INTRALOT employees, as well as their unceasing trust and support of its shareholders,
remain a key factor in the advancement of the Company’s competitiveness and further growth. The Company
undertakes to provide its employees with a working environment that will constantly develop their capabilities
and enhance their performance through reward and recognition schemes, always in accordance with the
principles that govern the Group.
From an HR perspective, 2022 has been a year of getting back to normal after the end of the COVID-19
pandemic. Therefore, the employees gradually started to come back, in order to perform their services from
the company premises, following a hybrid work model. Nevertheless, the health and safety of our people
remained our top priority and we have fully complied with all relevant measures imposed by governments.
At Headquarters, the total turnover rate was at the range of 16,3%, while the people who joined reached
9,9% of the total personnel base. For the selection of human resources, high recruitment standards and
processes have been followed.
In terms of enriching our practices for the better operation of the company, two new policies were adopted,
namely the "Policy for the Prevention and Combatting of Violence and Harassment at Work", as well as the
"Whistleblowing Policy", while our Internal Regulation has been updated respectively.
Performance Appraisal Management
The Performance Appraisal Management system has been operating in the parent company and in most
subsidiaries for the past 5 years. An integrated and detailed goal setting process is set at the beginning of the
year, followed by a review of these goals and a meeting between the employee and the supervisor in the
middle of the year (to make any necessary adjustments on plans and/or minor changes of goals) and it is
concluded at the beginning of the following year with the performance appraisal of the year passed.
From an innovation point of view, INTRALOT is moving from a traditional performance appraisal scheme to a
more modern, dynamic and flexible model, thus improving productivity and offering opportunity for regular
meet ups and alignment between the employee and his/her supervisor.
Training and Development
In 2022, our efforts were focused on internal promotions and training. 8,8% of our people were promoted,
while 2 rose to Top Management level.
In terms of Training, great emphasis was placed on specialized training through e-learning platforms, in
partnership with Microsoft - a skills development program involving more than 400 employees. Also, trainings
INTRALOT Group
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2022

Public
were implemented for the induction of the newcomers, the leadership skills development and the development
of technical skills through platforms, such as Pluralsight and Udemy, by creating individualized training
programs. In addition, throughout the year, the following programs were designed and implemented via our
corporate e-learning platform: the security and compliance training program, the responsible game, the anti-
bribery policy and the performance management system of our people. Specifically, at Headquarters level,
668 training programs were carried out (19 instructor-led training sessions and 649 e-learning self-paced)
with 1.179 participations, reaching a total of 4. 687 training hours.
Activities
The company, in the context of strengthening its Employer Branding, participated in the most important events
for attracting new talented people in the field of technology, such as: Developers Days (Digital), O
π
e\n
conference 2022, Career Mentoring Sessions at College Link, AUEB Career Fair 2022, Voxxed Days Athens,
TEDxNTUA and i-MBA Career Fair 2022.
Furthermore, a series of healthcare benefits were offered in the past year, such as the proactive healthcare
check-up, the annual flu vaccination and two blood donation initiatives, to serve the needs of INTRALOT’s
blood bank. Additionally, further initiatives took place in order to inform our people about wellness, the
integrated recycling program and the environmental practices in the office.
Last but not least, during the last four months of the year while the measures and restrictions for COVID-19
were relaxed, we had the opportunity - in the parent company - to participate with our people in sports events
such as: the 2022 Athens Marathon, the Race for the Cure and our basketball team in the 2022-2023
Championship of the Commercial League. Moreover, we were able to bond again through our internal corporate
events: the Top Performers Ceremony, the Get Together Breakfast, the Ice Cream Day, the BBQ Summer
Lunch, the Christmas Kids Party for our workforce’s children and our Christmas Party.
RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES
Enterprise Risk Management
The Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) Framework documents the good practices adopted by the INTRALOT
Group in order to identify, assess and manage risks related to the achievement of its business objectives.
INTRALOT ERM targets at the assurance of stakeholder and shareholder trust through the appropriate and
continuous balancing of risk and value.
INTRALOT ERM follows a holistic approach for taking into account all parameters that drive the execution of
INTRALOT Group Strategy, including INTRALOT’s financial health, operations, people, technology, compliance,
products and reputation.
ERM provides the means to continuously monitor risk, align it with the changing internal and external
parameters and manage it according to the defined corporate risk appetite.
The Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) Framework is designed according to the specifications of COSO
(Committee of Sponsorship Organizations of the Treadway Commission) and ISACA (COBIT for RISK). It is a
holistic strategic framework taking into account risks related to the business objectives of INTRALOT GROUP.
The framework incorporates the following components:

Public
1. Objective setting: Objectives are clearly defined in order to be used as a reference point for the identification
of risks. A process is in place for setting objectives that align with INTRALOT’s mission and are consistent with
the corporate risk appetite.
2. Risk assessment: Risks are analyzed in relation to the objectives and by determining the likelihood of and
impact from the realization of an adverse event.
3. Risk response: Management selects risk responses – avoiding, accepting, reducing, or sharing risk –
developing a set of actions to align risks with the entity's risk tolerances and risk appetite.
4. Event identification: Internal and external events affecting the achievement of INTRALOT objectives are
identified.
5. Internal environment: The internal environment sets the basis for how risk is viewed and addressed by
people, including risk management philosophy and risk appetite, integrity and ethical values, and the
environment in which they operate.
6. Control activities: Policies, procedures, strategies and action plans in general are established and
implemented to help ensure the risk responses are effectively carried out.
7. Information and communication: Relevant information is identified, captured, and communicated in a form
and time frame that enable people to carry out their responsibilities.
8. Monitoring: Risk is monitored, and modifications made as necessary. Monitoring is accomplished through
ongoing management activities, separate evaluations, or both.
Description of significant risks and uncertainties
FINANCIAL RISKS
The Group's international activities create several financial risks in the Group's operation, due to constant
changes in the global financial environment. The Group beyond the traditional risks of liquidity risk and credit
risk also faces market risk. The most significant of these risks are currency risk and interest rate risk. The risk
management program is a dynamic process that is constantly evolving and adapted according to market
conditions and aims to minimize potential negative impact on financial results. The basic risk management
policies are set by the Group Management. The risk management policy is implemented by the Treasury
Department of the Group which operates under specific guidelines approved by management.
Credit risk
The Group does not have significant credit risk concentration because of the wide dispersion of its customers
and the fact that credit limits are set through signed contracts. The maximum exposure of credit risk amounts
to the aggregate values presented in the financial position. In order to minimize the potential credit risk
exposure arising from cash and cash equivalents, the Group sets limits regarding the amount of credit
exposure to any financial institution. Moreover, in order to secure its transactions even more, the Group
adopted an internal rating system, regarding credit rating evaluation, using the relevant financial indices.
Liquidity risk
Prudent liquidity management means maintaining adequate liquidity, funding ability through approved credit
limits, and ability to repay liabilities. The Group has established specific policies to manage and monitor its
liquidity in order to continuously have sufficient cash and liquid non-core assets that can meet its obligations.
In addition, the Group has set up a system of monitoring and constant optimization of its operating and
investing costs in the framework of its liquidity management policies.

Public
Further analysis of the maturity of the financial liabilities of the Group is provided in note
2.33
of the annual
financial statements.
Market Risk
1) Foreign Exchange risk
Fluctuations in exchange rates can have significant effects on the Group’s currency positions. Group
transactions are carried out in more than one currency and therefore there is a high exposure in foreign
exchange rate fluctuations against the euro, which is the main underlying economic currency. On the other
hand, the Group’s activity abroad also helps to create an advantage in foreign exchange risk management,
due to the diversification in the currency portfolio. This kind of risk mainly results from commercial transactions
in foreign currency as well as investments in foreign entities. For managing this type of risk, the Group enters
into derivative financial instruments with various financial institutions, such as foreign currency hedging for
receipts of foreign currency dividends by abroad subsidiaries. The Group’s policy regarding the foreign
exchange risk concerns not only the parent company but also the Group’s subsidiaries.
Further analysis of the sensitivity analysis on foreign exchange variations and currency hedging derivatives is
provided in note
2.33
of the annual financial statements.
2) Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or the future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate
because of changes in market interest rates. The Group's activities are closely linked to interest rates because
of investments and long and short-term borrowings. To manage this risk category, the Group uses financial
hedging instruments in order to reduce its exposure to interest rate risk. The Group's policy on managing its
exposure to interest rate risk affects not only the parent company but also its subsidiaries for their loans
concluded in euros or local currency. The Group's exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relates
primarily to long-term borrowings of the Group's floating rate. The Group also manages interest rate risk by
having a balanced portfolio of loans with fixed and floating rate borrowings. On 31 December 2022, taking into
account the impact of possible financial hedging products, approximately the 63% of the Group's borrowings are
at a fixed rate (31/12/2021: 100%) with an average life of approximately 2,1 years. As a result, the impact of
interest rate fluctuations in operating results and cash flows of the Group's operating activities is small.
3) High leverage risk
INTRALOT’s ability to incur significant additional amounts of debt so as to finance its operations and expansion
depends on capital market conditions that influence the levels of new debt issues interest rates and relevant
costs. Furthermore, INTRALOT may be able to incur substantial additional debt in the future, however, under
the Senior Notes terms will be able to incur additional debt so long as on an actual basis its consolidated fixed
charge coverage ratio is at least 2,00 (31/12/2022: approximately 3,87), and will be able to incur additional
senior debt as long as on actual basis the ratio of total net debt to EBITDA (senior leverage ratio) is not more
than 3,75 (31/12/2022: approximately 3,67). Furthermore to the above, the Group can incur additional debt
from specific baskets. Additionally, the Group proceeded with the refinancing of Intralot Inc. debt with new
bank financing (Term Loan) maturing in 2025, the terms of which improve the access of the parent company
to the cash flows of the US subsidiary.
The new loan agreement signed with a consortium of six US financial
institutions also includes a revolving credit line (Revolver Facility) of $50 million, which will significantly assist
the Group's liquidity management. The new Term loans bear the US Sub-group financial covenants for incurring
additional debt with respect to the total Net Debt (senior) to EBITDA (Net Leverage ratio <4 up to 30/3/2024

and <3,75 thereafter) and financial expenses coverage ratio (Fixed Charge Coverage ratio >1,25). Both covenant
ratios were in compliance as of 31/12/2022.
Further analysis of the Group's leverage is provided in note
2.33
of the annual financial statements.
OPERATING RISKS
Winners’ payouts in sports betting
INTRALOT is one of the largest sports betting operator worldwide. The winners’ payout in sports betting may
fluctuate in the short-term since it depends on the outcome of the events. The fluctuation of the payout may
affect the financial results and cash flows of INTRALOT since it represents a significant cost element for the
Company.
Gaming sector and economic activity
The gaming market is affected by the economic cycles since lottery products are consumer products. However,
the gaming sector is more resilient than other sectors of the economy in periods of economic crisis. Specifically,
during an economic downturn, frequent draw games (like KENO or VLTs) are most likely to present a reduction
in revenues, while lotto type games are less affected. With its international expansion, INTRALOT has achieved
significant diversification and has reduced its dependency on the performance of individual markets and
economies.
Gaming Taxation
The financial crisis has increased the budget deficits of many countries. The increase of the taxation of lottery
games constitutes sometimes an easy, but not correct in Group’s opinion, solution for the governments to
finance these deficits. Nevertheless, such measures may affect INTRALOT’s financial results.
Regulatory risk
The gaming industry is subject to extensive regulations and oversight and regulatory requirements vary from
jurisdiction to jurisdiction. Because of the broad geographical reach of INTRALOT’s operations, it is subject to
a wide range of complex gaming laws and regulations in the jurisdictions in which it is licensed or operate.
These regulations govern, for example, advertisement, payouts, taxation, cash and anti-money laundering
compliance procedures and other specific limitations, such as the number of gaming machines in a given POS
and their proximity to each other. Most jurisdictions require that INTRALOT be licensed. If a license, approval
or finding of suitability is required by a regulatory authority and INTRALOT fails to seek or does not receive
the necessary approval, license or finding of suitability, then it may be prohibited from providing its products
or services for use in the particular jurisdiction. INTRALOT relies on government licenses in order to conduct
its main business activities and termination of these licenses would have a material adverse effect on Group
revenue. Changes in regulatory environment in any particular jurisdictions may have a material adverse impact
on Group results, cash flows, business operations or prospects.
Technological changes
The gaming industry is characterized by rapidly changing technology and evolving industry standards. Many
of INTRALOT’s software and hardware products are based on proprietary technologies. INTRALOT’s
competitiveness in the future will depend on its ability to respond to technological changes and satisfy future
technology demands by developing or licensing innovative and appealing products in a timely and cost-
effective manner. INTRALOT invests significant financial resources in R&D efforts to develop innovative
products so as to compete effectively in the gaming markets.

Public
Emerging markets risk
INTRALOT operates and offers its products and services in many countries, actively operating in rapidly
growing and emerging markets. Potential social, political, legal and economic instability in these markets, such
as the political turmoil in Turkey in 2016, may pose significant risks to the Group ability to conduct its business
and expand its activities in these markets. Although management believes its operations in Turkey have not
been affected, there can be no assurances such events will not have an impact in the future.
Competition risk and margin squeeze
Intralot operates in a highly competitive industry and its success depends on its ability to effectively compete
with numerous domestic and foreign companies. Also, Intralot is heavily dependent on its ability to renew its
long term contracts with its customers and could lose substantial revenue and profits if is unable to renew
such contracts or renew them with less favorable terms (profit margins, smaller range of services, etc.) due
to high competition during public tender process.
Environmental Sustainability
INTRALOT embodies environmental sustainability by identifying best practices and perform green initiatives that
align with its' values, in order to reduce its' environmental footprint. Paper and energy consumption are the
largest environmental impacts identified. INTRALOT is committed to reducing the amount of waste and improve
its' recycling rates. Additionally, it reduces the use of physical resources such as paper and ink by reducing
printing within the offices. INTRALOT is measuring its environmental impact in order to operate in a more
sustainable way in the future.
Other Operating Risks
•
risks posed by illegal betting (loss of market share),
•
changes in consumer preferences,
•
increased competition in the gaming industry,
•
non-renewal or termination of material contracts and licenses,
•
seasonality of sports schedules,
•
player fraud.

by other companies, should always be taken into account in conjunction with the financial results prepared in
accordance with IFRS and under no circumstances replace them.

According to article 5 § 2 and 3 of the corporate Statute:
«2. Without prejudice to the provisions of par. 3 of this article, it is decided herewith that the Company's
Board of Directors is entitled upon relevant authorization of the General Meeting of the Company's
Shareholders, to make a decision by the majority of two thirds (2/3) of all its members and to increase the
Company's share capital, wholly or partly, by issuing new shares for an amount which cannot exceed three
times the amount of the share capital which was paid up on the date when such power and authority was
granted to the Board of Directors. The above decision of the General Meeting of the Company's Shareholders
is subject to publication in accordance with the provisions of article 13 of L. 4548/2018.
The above power and authority of the Board of Directors can be renewed by the General Meeting of the

Any decision on increase of the Company's share capital made in accordance with the provisions of par.

By the decision of the Extraordinary General Meeting of the Company’s Shareholders dated 23/05/2022, the
Board of Directors of the Company was granted the right to decide on the increase of the corporate share
capital by an amount not exceeding the 150% of the paid share capital, i.e. to increase it by up to
€66,841,553.25 (nominal capital). Pursuant to this, the Board of Directors at its meeting of 21/06/2022
decided to increase the corporate share capital by €66,840,064.5. The increase was completed on 26/07/2022.
The above power and authority granted by the General Meeting to the Board of Directors was valid for six (6)
months from the date of the decision of the General Meeting, i.e. until 23/11/2022 and since then the Board
of Directors has no right to decide on the increase of the corporate share capital.
b.
In the cases referred to in article 26 of the L. 4548/2018 and article 113 of L.4548/2018 in accordance
with the article 7 § 3 and 4 (grant stock option rights) last quotation of Articles of Association.
″3. In any case of increase of the Company's capital, which is not ma
de by way of contribution in kind as well
as in the case of issue of bonds convertible into shares, the shareholders of the Company at the time of issue
of the new shares have a pre-emption right as regards the acquisition of all new shares or the participation in
the bond loan, on a pro-rata basis, according to the number of shares they already own.
The pre-emption right should be exercised within the deadline set by the Company's body which decided on the
increase. Such deadline can under no circumstances be less than fourteen (14) days, without prejudice to the
provisions regarding deadline for payment of the share capital, as specified in article 20 of L.4548/2018. In
case of paragraph 2 of article 25 of L.4548/2018, the deadline set for the exercise of the pre-emption right
starts as of the date when the relevant decision of the Board of Directors was made regarding determination of
the price of disposal of the new shares. After the expiration of such deadlines, the shares which have not been
paid according to everything specified hereinabove, shall be disposed of by the Company's Board of Directors
at its discretion at a price which cannot be less than the price paid by the shareholders at the time of increase.
In the event that the Company's body which decided on the increase of the capital fails to set the deadline for
the exercise of the pre-emption right, then such deadline or any extension thereof, is set upon decision of the
Company's Board of Directors within the period of time specified in article 20 of L. 4548/2018
The invitation regarding the exercise of the pre-emption right should also specify the deadline for the exercise
of such right and is subject to publication by the Company in the Government Gazette. Without prejudice to
the provisions of paragraph 2 of article 25 of L. 4548/2018, the invitation regarding the exercise of the pre-
emption right and the notification regarding the deadline set for the exercise of the pre-emption right,
according to everything specified hereinabove, may be omitted, provided that shareholders representing the
entire share capital were present in the meeting and provided that they were notified of the deadline set for
the exercise of the pre-emption right or declared that they have decided whether they shall exercise or not
the pre-emption right. The publication of the invitation may be replaced by a registered letter, return receipt
requested.
Upon decision of the General Meeting of the Company's Shareholders made in accordance with the provisions
of paragraphs 3 and 4 of article 130 and paragraph 2 of article 132 of L. 4548/2018, the pre-emption right
specified in article 26 of L. 4548/1920, may be limited or abolished. Such decision can only be made in the
event that the Company's Board of Directors has submitted to the General Meeting of the Company's
Shareholders a written report specifying the reasons why the pre-emption right should be curtailed or abolished

and justifying the price which is suggested for the issue of the new shares. The decision of the General Meeting
is subject to publication. There is no case of exclusion from the pre-emption right, according to everything
specified in the previous paragraph, when shares are taken by credit institutions or by companies providing
investment consulting services, which are entitled to accept title deeds for safeguarding, according to
everything specified in the previous paragraph, and in order to offer them to the shareholders, in accordance
with the provisions of paragraph 1 of article 26 of L. 4548/2018. In addition, there is no case of exclusion from
the pre-emption right, when the capital increase is intended to give employees a holding in the Company's
share capital in accordance with articles 113 and 114 of L. 4548/2018. The Capital may be increased, in part,
by contributions in cash and, in part, by contribution in kind. In this case, the competent body which decides
on the increase should declare that the fact that shareholders who contribute in kind do not participate in the
increase, which is made by contribution in cash too, does not constitute an exclusion of theirs of the pre-
emption right, if the percentage of contributions in kind in comparison to the entire amount of increase is at
least equal to the percentage of share capital owned by those shareholders, who make the said contributions.
In case of increase of the capital partially by contribution in cash and partially by contribution in kind, the
value of contributions in kind should
have been assessed, in accordance with the provisions of articles 17 and
18 of L. 4548/2018, before any relevant decision is made.
“4. Upon decision of the General Meeting of the Company's Shareholders made, in accordance with the
provisions of paragraphs 3 and 4 of article 130 and paragraph 2 of article 132 of L.4548/2018, a plan may be
prepared for the disposal of shares to the members of the Board of Directors and to the personnel of the
Company and of other affiliated companies as defined in article 32 of L.4308/2014, in the form of a pre-
emption right (option), on the terms and conditions of such decision, while a summary of such decision is
subject to publication. Persons who provide services to the Company on a regular basis can also be designated
as beneficiaries in the above plan. The nominal value of shares, which are disposed of according to the
provisions of this paragraph, can under no circumstances exceed one tenth (1/10) of the share capital, which
was
paid up on the date when such decision was made by the General Meeting of the Company's
Shareholders. The decision of the General Meeting of the Company's Shareholders specifies that, in order to
satisfy the legal requirements with regard to the pre-emption right, the Company will increase its share capital
or will use shares, which are acquired or have been acquired by the Company, in accordance with the
provisions of
article 49 of L. 4548/2018. In any case, the decision of the General Meeting of the Company's
Shareholders should specify the highest number of shares which may be acquired or issued, in the event that
the beneficiaries shall exercise the above mentioned right of theirs, the price and the terms and conditions for
disposal of the shares to the beneficiaries, the beneficiaries or the categories of beneficiaries and the method
used for the determination of the price of acquisition thereof, without prejudice to the provisions of paragraph
2 of article 35 of L. 4548/2018, the duration of the plan as well as any other relevant term and condition.
According to the same decision the beneficiaries or the categories of beneficiaries, the way of exercise of the
pre-emption right and any other term and condition related to the plan for the disposal of shares. According
to the terms and conditions of the plan, the Company's Board of Directors issues for the beneficiaries who
exercised their right certificates proving that they have acquired shares and every three months maximum, it
delivers the shares which have already been issued or are issued and it delivers the shares to the above named
beneficiaries, by increasing the Company's share capital, while it confirms the increase of the share capital.

be made every three months, in deviation of the provisions of article 20 of L. 4548/2018. The provisions of
article 26 of L. 4548/2018 do not apply to those capital increases.
Upon decision made, in accordance with the provisions of paragraphs 3 and 4 of article 130, and paragraph 2
of article 132 of L. 4548/2018, which is
subject to publication, in accordance with the provisions of article 12
of L.4548/2018, the General Meeting of the Company's Shareholders is
entitled to authorize the Company's
Board of Directors to prepare a plan for the disposal of shares, according to the provisions of the previous
paragraph, by increasing the share capital, if necessary, and by making all other relevant decisions. Such
authorization is valid for five (5) years, unless the General Meeting of the Company's Shareholders shall
determine that it is valid for a shorter period of time and that it is irrelevant to the powers and authorities of
the Company's Board of Directors, specified in paragraph 1 of article 24 of L. 4548/2018. The resolution of
the Company's Board of Directors shall be passed under the terms of article 113 of L. 4548/2018. The above

Evaluation of the Board of Directors
The Board of Directors has established a procedure for the evaluation of its members in order to ensure the
effective operation of the Board of Directors and the fulfillment of its role as the highest governing body of the
Company, which is responsible for the formulation of the strategy and the supervision and adequate control
of the management. The evaluation procedures and the frequency with which they are applied aim at the
timely identification of points that may need improvement, the appropriate information and the initiation of
actions, so as to ensure the effective operation of the Board of Directors and its Committees. The members of
the Board of Directors are evaluated annually: (a) on a collective basis, taking into account the composition,
diversity and effective cooperation of the members of the Board of Directors on the fulfillment of their duties.
Collective suitability means the suitability of all members of the Board of Directors as a collective body which
is necessary for the Board to effectively exercise its leadership role in corporate matters, managing corporate
affairs for the benefit of the company, the shareholders and all stakeholders and ensuring that the
management implements the corporate strategy and (b) on an individual basis with respect to the assessment
of the contribution of each member to the successful operation of the Board of Directors, taking into account
the status of the member (executive, non-executive, independent), the participation in committees, the
assumption of specific responsibilities/projects, the time spent, the behavior and the use of knowledge and
experience. In addition, through the evaluation of the effectiveness of the Committees of the Board of
Directors, namely the Audit Committee and the Nomination and Remuneration Committee, their contribution
to the constructive support of the Board of Directors is assessed.
The first evaluation of its members and Committees (Audit Committee and
Remuneration
and Nomination
Committee), since the election of the new Board of Directors was conducted for the period from 29.06.21 –
31.12.22 and was completed in the first quarter of 2023. It initially took the form of self-assessment
questionnaires, which were answered anonymously, and according to the responses, the operation of these
bodies was rated from “satisfactory” to “fully satisfactory” in the vast majority of the questions. Then, the
Remuneration and Nomination Committee for the Election of Members of the Board of Directors also took into
account a number of general evaluation criteria (presence and active participation, continuation of the
prevention of conflicts of interest, conditions of knowledge and experience, absence of any administrative or
other judicial decision against a member, in accordance with par. 4 of a.3 of Law 4706/2020) and concluded
that both the Board of Directors and the aforementioned Committees have the appropriate balance of
knowledge, skills, experience, diversity and independence to perform their duties effectively, contribute
substantially to the work of these bodies and demonstrate a commitment to their role.
VIII. Diversity Policy
The Company has and implements a diversity policy, aiming at promoting a suitable level of diversity within

Independent Auditor’s Report
To the Shareholders of “INTRALOT S.A. INTEGRATED LOTTERY SYSTEMS AND SERVICES”
Report on the Audit of the separate and consolidated Financial Statements
Opinion
We have audited the accompanying separate and consolidated financial statements of INTRALOT S.A. INTEGRATED
LOTTERY SYSTEMS AND SERVICES
(the Company), which comprise the separate and consolidated statement of financial
position as at December 31, 2022, the separate and consolidated income statement, statement of comprehensive income,
statement of changes in equity and cash flow statement for the year then ended, including a summary of significant
accounting policies and selected explanatory notes to the financial statements.
In our opinion, the accompanying separate and consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the
financial position of the Company and its subsidiaries (the Group) as at December 31, 2022, the financial performance and
cash flows for the year then ended, in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) as adopted
by the European Union.
Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (ISAs), as incorporated into the Greek Law.
Our responsibilities, under those standards are further described in the “Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the
separate and consolidated Financial Statements” section of our report. We are independent of the Company and its
subsidiaries, during the whole period of our audit, in accordance with the International Ethics Standards Board for
Accountants “Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants” as incorporated into the Greek Law and we have fulfilled our
ethical responsibilities in accordance with current legislation requirements and the aforementioned Code of Ethics. We
believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Key Audit Matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit of the separate
and consolidated financial statements of the current year. These matters and the related risks of material misstatements
were addressed in the context of our audit of the separate and consolidated financial statements as a whole, and in forming
our opinion thereon, and we do not express a separate opinion on these matters.
Key audit matters
How our audit addressed the key audit matter
Evaluation of impairment for goodwill and intangible assets
(separate and consolidated financial statements)
As at December 31, 2022, the Group presented in the
consolidated Statement of Financial Position Goodwill
amounting to € 0.2 mil., Software amounting to € 15.9 mil.,
Development Costs amounting to € 66.1 mil., Licenses
amounting to € 114.5 mil. and Other Intangibles
amounting to € 12 mil., as stated in note 2.16 of the
separate and consolidated financial statements.
According to the requirements of IAS 36, goodwill and
intangible assets with indefinite useful life are tested for
impairment at least annually, while intangible assets with
finite useful life are tested for impairment when there are
indications of impairment. For the determination of the
recoverable amount of the abovementioned assets,
management is re
quired to exercise judgement and
Our audit procedures regarding the evaluation of impairment
of goodwill and intangible assets included, among others:
Evaluation of the management's assessment of whether there
are indications of impairment of these assets.
Evaluation of the policies, methodology and internal control
procedures adopted by the Group regarding the assessment
of impairment of these assets.
Assessment of the suitability of either the fair value or the
value-in-use models.
Assessment of the reliability of business plans of management,
including among others a comparison of the budgeted figures

significant estimates. During the year ended December
31, 2022, no impairment loss has been recognized by the
Group.
Given
the
significance
of
the
balances
of
the
abovementioned assets in the consolidated Statement of
Financial Position, the degree of subjectivity to the
assumptions underlying the impairment analysis and the
significant
judgments
and
estimates
required
by
management, we consider the impairment of the
abovementioned assets as a key audit matter.
The Group’s disclosures regarding the accounting policy,
as well as the judgements and estimates that have been
used in the evaluation of impairment, are included in
notes 2.1.6, 2.1.11 and 2.1.28 of the separate and
consolidated financial statements.
including analysts’ reports as well as internal information. Key
assumptions that were evaluated, included revenue and profit
margins, capital investments in licenses and equipment-
related assets as well as discount rates.
Use of a specialist with expertise in valuation and business
modeling, to evaluate the mathematical precision of the
models’ calculations and to assess the reasonableness of the
discount rates used.
Assessment of the sensitivity analysis o
n the underlying
assumptions and the potential impact on the relevant assets’
recoverable amount.
Evaluation of the adequacy and appropriateness of the
disclosures in the accompanying financial statements with
respect to the above matter.
Evaluation of impairment in investments in subsidiaries
(separate financial statements)
As at December 31, 2022, the Company’s investments in
subsidiaries amounted to € 263.8 mil. Investments in
subsidiaries are initially measured at cost, which is
adjusted for any impairment losses. During the year
ended December 31, 2022, an impairment loss of € 24
thousands has been recognized.
For the determination of any impairment, management
compares the carrying amount of each subsidiary (CGU)
with its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is
determined as the value in use, the determination of
which is supported by forecasts of future operating flows,
which are by nature subjective and depend on various
factors, such as future sales.
Given the significance of the balance of investments in
subsidiaries in the separate financial statements, the
degree of subjectivity to the assumptions underlying the
impairment analysis and the significant judgements and
estimates required by management, we consider the
assessment of impairment of investments in subsidiaries
as a key audit matter.
In addition, we focused on this area because the data
described in the key audit matter "Evaluation of
impairment for goodwill and intangible assets" has also
an impact on the investments in subsidiaries.
The Company’s disclosures regarding the accounting
policy, as well as the judgements and estimates that
have been used in the evaluation of impairment, are
included in note 2.1.6 (a) of the separate and
consolidated financial statements.
For the evaluation of impairment in the Company's investments
in subsidiaries, we conducted the audit procedures described
in the key audit matter "Evaluation of impairment for goodwill
and intangible assets".
Following
the
completion
of
the
procedures
for
the
Consolidated Financial Statements, we evaluated the analysis
prepared by management, according to which the recoverable
amounts of the CGUs were correlated with the respective
investments in subsidiaries.
In addition, we evaluated the adequacy and appropriateness of
the relevant disclosures in the accompanying financial
statements.

Other Information
Management is responsible for the other information. The other information, included in the Annual Financial Report, is
comprised of the Management Report of the Board of Directors, for which reference is also made in section “Report on Other
Legal and Regulatory Requirements”, and the Representations of the Members of the Board of Directors, but does not
include the financial statements and the auditor’s report thereon.
Our opinion on the separate and consolidated financial statements do not cover the other information and we do not express
any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the separate and consolidated financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other
information, and in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the separate and
consolidated financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If
we conclude, based on our procedures performed, that there is a material misstatement therein, we are required to
communicate that matter. We have nothing to report, regarding the aforementioned matter.
Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the separate and
consolidated Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the separate and consolidated financial statements
in accordance with the IFRSs as adopted by the European Union and for such internal control as management determines
is necessary to enable the preparation of separate and consolidated financial statements that are free from material
misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the separate and consolidated financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company’s
and Group’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the
going concern basis of accounting, unless there is an intention to liquidate the Company or the Group or to cease operations,
or there is no realistic alternative but to do so.
The Audit Committee (art. 44 L. 4449/2017) of the Company is responsible for overseeing the Company’s and Group’s
financial reporting process.
Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the separate and consolidated Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the separate and consolidated financial statements as a
whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our
opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance
with ISAs, as incorporated into the Greek Law, will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can
arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected
to influence the economic decisions of users, taken on the basis of these separate and consolidated financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with ISAs, as incorporated into the Greek Law, we exercise professional judgment and
maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the separate and consolidated financial statements, whether due
to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient
and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is
higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations,
or the override of internal control.
Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit, in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in
the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s and Group’s
internal control.
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related
disclosures made by management.
Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit
evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on
the Company’s or Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are
required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the separate and consolidated financial
statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence

obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company of the Group
to cease to continue as a going concern.
Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the separate and consolidated financial statements, including the
disclosures, and whether the separate and consolidated financial statements represent the underlying transactions and
events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
Obtain sufficient and appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within
the Group to express audit opinion on the separate and consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for the
direction, supervision and performance of the Group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the
audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements
regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought
to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most
significance in the audit of the separate and consolidated financial statements of the current period and are therefore the
key audit matters.

securities are admitted to trading on a regulated market in Greece” as issued by the Institute of Certified Public Accountants
of Greece on February 14, 2022 (hereinafter “ESEF Guidelines”), in order to obtain reasonable assurance that the separate
and consolidated financial statements of the Company prepared by management in accordance with ESEF, are in
compliance, in all material respects, with the effective ESEF Regulatory Framework.
We conducted our work in accordance with the International Ethics Standards Board of Accountants “Code of Ethics for
Professional Accountants” (IESBA Code), as incorporated into the Greek Law, and we have complied with the ethical
requirements of independence, in accordance with Law 4449/2017 and EU Regulation 537/2014.
We conducted our work in accordance with the International Standard on Assurance Engagements (ISAE) 3000 “Assurance
Engagements other than Audits or Reviews of Historical Financial Information” and our procedures are limited to the
requirements of the ESEF Guidelines. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that this
work will always detect a material misstatement of non-compliance with the requirements of the ESEF Regulation.
Conclusion
Based on the procedures performed and the evidence obtained, the separate and consolidated financial statements of the
Company for the year ended December 31, 2022, in XHTML format (213800XNTZ8P8L74HM35-2022-12-31-en.xhtml), as
well as the provided XBRL file (213800XNTZ8P8L74HM35-2022-12-31-en.zip) with the appropriate mark-up on the
aforementioned consolidated financial statements including the other explanatory information, have been prepared, in all
material respects, in accordance with the requirements of the ESEF Regulatory Framework.

2. NOTES TO ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
2.1.1
Basis of preparation of the Financial Statements
The attached financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, except for the financial
assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income and the derivative financial instruments
that are measured at fair value, or at cost if the difference is not a significant amount, and on condition that
the Company and the Group would continue as a going concern, as described below. The attached financial
statements are presented in Euros and all values are rounded to the nearest thousand (€000) except if
indicated otherwise.
Going concern
The Group maintains sufficient liquidity as to cover its cash needs in the near future. The Group has completed
a series of capital restructuring actions, including debt restructuring and refinancing transactions, as well as
a share capital increase of €129,2m. Following the completion of the exchange offers in August 2021, resulting
to the extension of the 2021 maturities with new maturity date September, 2025 and the deleverage of
€163m, the Group recently acquired the minority shares in Intralot Inc. through the proceeds of the share
capital increase, thus bringing the controlling share of the Intralot Group in Intralot Inc. to 100%, and
consequently obtaining full control of its subsidiary’s cash flows. In addition, at the same time, the Group
proceeded with the refinancing of Intralot Inc. debt with new banking facility (Term Loan) maturing in 2025.
The new loan agreement signed with a consortium of six US financial institutions also includes a revolving
credit line (Revolver Facility) of $50 million, which will significantly assist the Group's liquidity management.
The successful completion of these three transactions is expected to allow the Group to implement its business
plan and address significant opportunities both in the Lottery as well as in the Sports Betting markets.
In this field, the Management is continuously monitoring the cash flow of the Group and enhancing its efforts
for further sales increase through operational improvements, while at the same time focusing on the cost
reduction through operational efficiencies and development of synergies.
The geopolitical tension due to the war in Ukraine coupled with the energy crisis, disruptions in the supply
chain, and the rising inflation, are factors that have affected and continue to affect economic developments.
INTRALOT Group
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31,
2022
133
Although our Group does not have exposure in terms of operations or dependency on suppliers in Ukraine and
Russia, the potential risks from the reduction in the household disposable income and the possible increase in
operating expenses due to inflationary pressures cannot be ignored.
An important impact is the increase of interest rates, which has affected the new banking facility of our
subsidiary in the US since it is a fluctuating interest rate bearing banking facility and therefore the servicing
cost has temporarily increased. However, given that our subsidiary in the US generates strong cash flows, it
can meet the increased servicing obligations of its debt. In addition, recently, interest rates have shown a
gradual trend of de-escalation, and therefore we expect that the servicing cost for this financing will decrease
in the medium term, releasing capital that can be directed towards more developmental actions and
significantly strengthening our company's cash position.
The Management has prepared a detailed business plan with expected cash flows for a period up to December
2024, taking into consideration the trading performance and the current trends per operating activity,
macroeconomic environment in markets we operate and new developments in financial markets.
Given that the maturity date of the bond, with a nominal value of €500 million (€356 million after repurchases),
is September 15, 2024, within a 18-month time horizon from the date of publication of the Financial
Statements for 2022, the Management has already started examining a series of options for refinancing the
bond with a new bond or a bank loan, and in any case, in the optimal way for the interests of the Group and
all parties involved, taking into account the current market conditions and the objective capabilities of the
Group. We estimate that within the next few months, and certainly within the timeline specified by the
Indenture, the Management will be in a position to announce a refinancing plan.
In conclusion, taking into account the Forecasted Cash Flows plan, the successful share capital increase, the
successful refinancing of the Intralot Inc.’s debt that led to the improvement of Net Debt, which combined
with the improvement of operational profitability significantly enhanced the leverage ratio, as well as all
available information about the foreseeable future, the Management estimates that the Going Concern
assumption is valid for the preparation of the financial statements and there is no longer any material
uncertainty in this regard.
In view of the above, the Financial Statements of the Group were prepared on the basis of the going concern
principle
.
2.1.2

the purpose of the consolidated financial statements, Group entities’ financial statements are adjusted and
prepared in relation to the requirements of the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).
Differences that may occur between the items in the Financial Statements and of the corresponding items in
the notes are due to rounding.
2.1.4 Changes in accounting policies
For the preparation of the financial statements of period ended December 31, 2022, the accounting policies
adopted are consistent with those followed in the preparation of the most recent annual financial statements
(
December 31, 2021
), except for the below mentioned adoption of new standards and interpretations
applicable for fiscal periods beginning at January 1, 2022.
Standards and Interpretations compulsory for the fiscal year 2022
New standards, amendments of published standards and interpretations mandatory for accounting periods
beginning on 1st January 2022. The Group’s assessment of the impact of these new and amended standards
and interpretations is set out below.
IAS 16 (Amendment) ‘Property, Plant and Equipment – Proceeds before Intended Period”
The amendment prohibits an entity from deducting from the cost of an item of PP&E any proceeds received
from selling items produced while the entity is preparing the asset for its intended use. It also requires entities
to separately disclose the amounts of proceeds and costs relating to such items produced that are not an
output of the entity’s ordinary activities. The amendment did not have any impact on the Group Financial
Statements.
IAS 37 (Amendment) ‘Onerous Contracts – Cost of Fulfilling a Contract’
The amendment clarifies that ‘costs to fulfil a contract’ comprise the incremental costs of fulfilling that contract
and an allocation of other costs that relate directly to fulfilling contracts. The amendment also clarifies that,
before a separate provision for an onerous contract is established, an entity recognises any impairment loss
that has occurred on assets used in fulfilling the contract, rather than on assets dedicated to that contract.
The amendment did not have any impact on the Group Financial Statements.
IFRS 3 (Amendment) ‘Reference to the Conceptual Framework’
The amendment updated the standard to refer to the 2018 Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting, in
order to determine what constitutes an asset or a liability in a business combination. In addition, an exception
was added for some types of liabilities and contingent liabilities acquired in a business combination. Finally, it
is clarified that the acquirer should not recognise contingent assets, as defined in IAS 37, at the acquisition
date. The amendment did not have any impact on the Group Financial Statements.
Annual Improvements to IFRS Standards 2018–2020
Annual Improvements 2018-2020 make minor amendments to IFRS 1 First-time Adoption of IFRS, IFRS 9
Financial Instruments, IAS 41 Agriculture and the Illustrative Examples accompanying IFRS 16 Leases. The
Group will examine the impact of the above on its financial statements.
Standards and Interpretations compulsory after December 31, 2022
The following new standards, amendments and IFRICs have been published but are in effect for the annual
fiscal period beginning the 1st of January 2023 and have not been adopted from the Group earlier.
IFRS 17 ‘Insurance contracts’ and Amendments to IFRS 17
Effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2023.
INTRALOT Group
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31,
2022
135
IFRS 17 has been issued in May 2017 and, along with the Amendments to IFRS 17 issued in June 2020,
supersedes IFRS 4. IFRS 17 establishes principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and
disclosure of insurance contracts within the scope of the Standard and its objective is to ensure that an entity
provides relevant information that faithfully represents those contracts. The new standard solves the
comparison problems created by IFRS 4 by requiring all insurance contracts to be accounted for in a consistent
manner. Insurance obligations will be accounted for using current values instead of historical cost. This
amendment will not affect Group financial statements.
IAS 1 (Amendment) ‘Classification of liabilities as current or non-current’
Effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2024.
The amendment clarifies that liabilities are classified as either current or non-current depending on the rights
that exist at the end of the reporting period. Classification is unaffected by the expectations of the entity or
events after the reporting date. The amendment also clarifies what IAS 1 means when it refers to the
‘settlement’ of a liability. The Group will assess the impact of the amendment on its financial statements.
These amendments have not yet been endorsed by the European Union.
IAS 1 (Amendments) ‘Presentation of Financial Statements’ and IFRS Practice Statement 2
‘Disclosure of Accounting policies’
Effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2023.
The amendments require companies to disclose their material accounting policy information and provide
guidance on how to apply the concept of materiality to accounting policy disclosures.
The Group will assess
the impact of the amendment on its financial statements.
IAS 1 (Amendments) ‘Non-current liabilities with covenants’
Effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2024.
The amendments clarify that if the right to defer settlement is subject to the entity complying with specified
conditions (covenants), this amendment will only apply to conditions that exist when compliance is measured
on or before the reporting date. Additionally, the amendments aim to improve the information an entity
provides when its right to defer settlement of a liability is subject to compliance with covenants within twelve
months after the reporting period.
IAS 8 (Amendments) ‘Accounting policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors: Definition
of Accounting Estimates’
Effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2023.
The amendments clarify how companies should distinguish changes in accounting policies from changes in
accounting estimates.
The Group will assess the impact of the amendment on its financial statements.
IΑS 1
2 (Amendments) ‘Deferred tax related to Assets and Liabilities arising from a Single
Transaction’
Effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2023.
The amendments require companies to recognize deferred tax on transactions that, on initial recognition, give
rise to equal amounts of taxable and deductible temporary differences. This will typically apply to transactions
such as leases for the lessee and decommissioning obligations. The Group will assess the impact of the
amendment on its financial statements.
IFRS 17 (Amendment) ‘Initial Application of IFRS 17 and IFRS 9 – Comparative Information’
Effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2023.
The amendment is a transition option relating to comparative information about financial assets presented on
initial application of IFRS 17. The amendment is aimed at helping entities to avoid temporary accounting
INTRALOT Group
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31,
2022
136
mismatches between financial assets and insurance contract liabilities, and therefore improve the usefulness
of comparative information for users of financial statements. This amendment does not affect Group financial
statements. This amendment has not yet been endorsed by the European Union.
IFRS 16 (Amendment) ‘Lease Liability in a Sale and Leaseback’
Effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2024.
The amendment clarifies how an entity accounts for a sale and leaseback after the date of the transaction.
Sale and leaseback transactions where some or all the lease payments are variable lease payments that do
not depend on an index or rate are most likely to be impacted. An entity applies the requirements
retrospectively back to sale and leaseback transactions that were entered into after the date when the entity
initially applied IFRS 16. The amendment has not yet been endorsed by the EU.
The Group will assess the impact of the amendment on its financial statements.
2.1.5 Basis of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of INTRALOT S.A. and its subsidiaries
as at the end of each reporting period. The financial statements of the subsidiaries are prepared for the same
reporting period as the parent company, using consistent accounting policies.
Adjustments are made to bring in line any dissimilar accounting policies that may have existed. All
intercompany balances and transactions, including unrealized profits arising from intra-group transactions,
have been eliminated in full. Unrealized losses are eliminated unless costs cannot be recovered.
Control is achieved when the Group is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with
the investee and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the investee. Specifically, the
Group controls an investee if and only if the Group has:
•
Power over the investee (i.e. existing rights that give it the current ability to direct the relevant
activities of the investee)
•
Exposure, or rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee, and
•
The ability to use its power over the investee to affect the amount of its returns.
When the Group has less than a majority of the voting or similar rights of an investee, the Group considers all
relevant facts and circumstances in assessing whether it has power over an investee, including:
•
The contractual arrangement with the other vote holders of the investee
•
Rights arising from other contractual arrangements
•
The Group’s voting rights and potential voting rights
The Group re-assesses whether or not it controls an investee if facts and circumstances indicate that there
are changes to one or more of the three elements of control. Consolidation of a subsidiary begins when the
Group obtains control over the subsidiary and ceases when the Group loses control of the subsidiary. Assets,
liabilities, income and expenses of a subsidiary acquired or disposed of during the year are included in the
consolidated statements of comprehensive income and financial position from the date the Group gains control
until the date the Group ceases to control the subsidiary.
Changes in a parent’s ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in a loss of control are accounted
for as equity transactions (i.e. transactions with owners in their capacity as owners).
Total comprehensive income is attributed to the owners of the parent and to the non-controlling interests even
if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance.
If the Group loses control over a subsidiary, it:
•
derecognizes the assets (including goodwill) and liabilities of the subsidiary,
INTRALOT Group
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31,
2022
137
•
derecognizes the carrying amount of any non-controlling interests in the former subsidiary (including
any components of other comprehensive income attributable to them),
•
derecognizes the cumulative translation differences that have been recorded in equity,
•
recognizes the fair value of the consideration received from the transaction,
•
recognizes any investment retained in the former subsidiary at its fair value at the date when control is
lost,
•
reclassifies to profit or loss, (or transfers directly to retained earnings if required in accordance with
other IFRSs), the amounts that have been recorded in the parent’s share of other comprehensive
income,
•
recognizes any resulting difference as a gain or loss in profit or loss.
Where there is a loss of control of a subsidiary, the consolidated financial statements include the results for
the part of the reporting year during which the Group has control.
2.1.6 Business combination and goodwill
a) Subsidiaries
Subsidiaries are entities that are controlled by the Group. Subsidiaries are consolidated using the acquisition
method according to IFRS 3. The cost of an acquisition is measured as the aggregate of the consideration
transferred measured at acquisition date fair value and the amount of any non-controlling interest in the
acquiree. For each subsidiary acquired, the Group elects whether to measure the non-controlling interests in
the acquiree at fair value or at the proportionate share of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets. Acquisition-
related costs are expensed as incurred and included to income statement.
At the acquisition date, the Group classifies or designates the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities
assumed on the basis of the contractual terms, economic conditions, its operating or accounting policies and
other pertinent conditions as they exist at the acquisition date
.
In a business combination achieved in stages, the Group remeasures its previously held equity interest in the
acquiree at its acquisition-date fair value and recognizes the resulting gain or loss in profit or loss. In prior
reporting periods, the Group may have recognized changes in the value of its equity interest in the acquiree
in other comprehensive income (i.e. due to the fact that the investment has been classified as available for
sale). If so, the amount that was recognized in other comprehensive income shall be recognized on the same
basis as would be required if the Group had disposed directly of the previously held equity interest.
The Group recognizes any contingent consideration at the fair value, at the acquisition date. Subsequent
changes to the fair value of the contingent consideration which is deemed to be an asset or a liability will be
recognized in accordance with IFRS 9 either in income statement or as a change in other comprehensive
income.
If the contingent consideration is not within the scope of IFRS 9, it is measured in accordance with
the appropriate IFRS. If the contingent consideration is classified as equity, it shall not be remeasured until it
is finally settled within equity.
Goodwill in a business acquisition is initially measured at cost being the excess of the consideration transferred,
the amount recognized for non-controlling interests and any previous interest held, over the net fair value of
the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed of the acquiree. If the fair value of the net assets
acquired is in excess of the aggregate consideration transferred, the Group re-assesses whether it has correctly
identified all of the assets acquired and all of the liabilities assumed and reviews the procedures used to
measure the amounts to be recognized at the acquisition date. If the re-assessment still results in an excess
of the fair value of net assets acquired over the aggregate consideration transferred, then the gain is
recognized in profit or loss. Any goodwill arising on the acquisition of a foreign subsidiary and any fair value
INTRALOT Group
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31,
2022
138
adjustments to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities arising on the acquisition are treated as assets
and liabilities of the foreign operation and translated at the closing rate accordingly.
Following initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. Based on
IFRS 3 “Business combinations”, Goodwill is not amortized. For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill
acquired in a business combination is, from the acquisition date, allocated to each of the Group’s cash-
generating units that are expected to benefit from the combination, irrespective of whether other assets or
liabilities of the acquiree are assigned to those units. Goodwill is reviewed for impairment, annually or more
frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may be impaired.
Impairment is determined by assessing the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit, to which the
goodwill relates. Where recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit is less than the carrying amount, an
impairment loss is recognized.
Where goodwill forms part of a cash generating unit and part of the operation within that unit is disposed of,
the goodwill associated with the operation disposed of is included in the carrying amount of the operation
when determining the gain or loss on disposal of the operation. Goodwill disposed of in this circumstance is
measured on the basis of the relative values of the operation disposed of and the portion of the cash-
generating unit retained.
Any impairment losses that have been recognized for goodwill, will not be reversed in future periods.
Investments in subsidiaries are stated in the individual statement of financial position of the Company at their
cost less any impairment in value.
b) Investment in associates and joint ventures
Associates are entities over which the Group has significant influence. Significant influence is the power to
participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the investee, but is not control or joint control
over those policies.
A joint venture is a type of joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement
have rights to the net assets of the joint venture. Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing of control
of an arrangement, which exists only when decisions about the relevant activities require unanimous consent
of the parties sharing control.
The considerations made in determining significant influence or joint control are similar to those necessary to
determine control over subsidiaries.
The Group’s investments in associates and joint ventures are accounted for using the equity method.
Under this method, investments in associates or joint ventures are carried in the statement of financial position
at cost plus post acquisition changes in the Group’s share of net assets of the associate or joint venture.
Goodwill relating to the associate or joint venture is included in the carrying amount of the investment and is
neither amortized nor individually tested for impairment.
The income statement reflects the Group’s share of the post-acquisition associate’s or joint venture’s results
after taxes and non-controlling interests of the associate’s or joint venture’s subsidiaries. Any change in other
comprehensive income of those investees is presented as part of the Group’s other comprehensive income.
Also, the Group’s share of the changes in associates’ or joint ventures’ equity is directly recognized to the
consolidated statement of changes in equity. Unrealized gains and losses resulting from transactions between
the Group and the associate or joint venture are eliminated to the extent of the interest in the associate or
joint venture.
INTRALOT Group
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31,
2022
139
If an associate or joint venture uses accounting policies other than those of the Group for similar transactions
and events in similar circumstances, adjustments are made to the associate’s or joint venture’s financial
statements so as to apply the equity method.
The financial statements of associates or joint ventures are prepared for the same reporting period as the
parent company.
If the Group’s share of losses of an associate or joint venture equals or exceeds its interest in the associate
or joint venture, the Group discontinues recognizing its share of further losses, unless it has incurred legal or
constructive obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate or joint venture.
After application of the equity method, the Group applies the requirements of the relative IFRSs to determine
whether it is necessary to recognize any additional impairment loss with respect to its net investment in the
associate or joint venture. The Group incurs impairment test at the end of each reporting period comparing
the recoverable amount of the investment in associate or joint venture to its carrying value and recognizes
the difference in the income statement of the period.
The Group discontinues the use of the equity method from the date when it ceases to have significant influence
over an associate or joint control over a joint venture and accounts for the investment in accordance with
IFRS 9 measuring the investment at fair value. Any difference between the carrying amount and the fair value
of the investment in associate or joint venture is recognized in the income statement of the period.
Investments in associates or joint venture are stated in the statement of financial position of the Company at
their cost less any impairment in value.
2.1.7 Foreign Currency Translation
The functional and presentation currency of INTRALOT S.A. and its subsidiaries which are located in Greece is
the euro (€). The Group’s consolidated financial statements are presented in euros. For each entity the Group
determines the functional currency and items included in the financial statements of each entity are measured
using that functional currency.
a) Transactions and balances
Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded by the Group’s entities at their respective functional
currency spot rates at the date of the transaction.
Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the functional currency
spot rates of exchange at the reporting date.
All resulting differences are taken to the consolidated income statement with the exception of differences on
foreign currency borrowings that provide a hedge against a net investment in a foreign entity. These are taken
directly to Other Comprehensive Income until the disposal of the net investment, at which time they are
recognized in the consolidated income statement. Tax charges and credits attributable to exchange differences
on those borrowings are also dealt with in Other Comprehensive Income.
Exchange differences resulting from financial assets and liabilities (intragroup loans and long term nontrade
receivables/payables for which settlement is neither planned nor likely to occur in the foreseeable future) that
has been classified as part of an entity’s net investment in a subsidiary with foreign operations, are recognized
in income statement in the separate financial statements of the entity or/and subsidiary. In the consolidated
financial statements, the above exchange differences are recognized in other comprehensive income and
included in the exchange differences reserve. When the settlement of the above financial assets and liabilities
is planned or likely to occur in the foreseeable future, cumulative exchange differences in reserves are
INTRALOT Group
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31,
2022
140
reclassified in consolidated income statement since the financial assets and liabilities cease to be part of an
entity’s net investment in a subsidiary with foreign operations. The same accounting treatment of
reclassification applied on the subsidiary disposal.
Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using
the exchange rate as at the date of initial transaction. Non-monetary items measured at fair value in a foreign
currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value was determined. The gain or
loss arising on translation of non-monetary items measured at fair value is treated in line with the recognition
of gain or loss on change in fair value of the item (i.e., translation differences on items whose fair value gain
or loss is recognized in other comprehensive income or profit or loss are also recognized in other
comprehensive income or profit or loss, respectively).
Any goodwill arising on the acquisition of a foreign operation and any fair value adjustments to the carrying
amounts of assets and liabilities arising on the acquisition are treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign
operation and translated at the spot rate of exchange at the reporting date.
b) Group companies
The functional currency of the overseas subsidiaries is the currency of the country in which these subsidiaries
are located and operate. As at the reporting date, the assets and liabilities of these overseas subsidiaries are
translated into the presentation currency of INTRALOT S.A. at the rate of exchange ruling at the reporting
date and, their statements of comprehensive income are translated at the weighted average exchange rates
for the year. The resulting exchange differences arising on the retranslation are taken directly to a separate
component of Other Comprehensive Income. On disposal of a foreign entity, the deferred cumulative amount
recognized in Other Comprehensive Income relating to that particular foreign operation shall be transferred
to the income statement.
2.1.8 Tangible assets
Tangible assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and any impairment in value. Such cost
includes the cost of replacing the tangible assets and borrowing costs for long-term construction assets if the
recognition criteria are met.
Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the useful life of the asset as follows:
•
Buildings (owned)
20 to 30 years
•
Installations on third party property
Over the duration of the lease but not less
than 5% per annum
•
Installations and Equipment
5 to 15 years
•
Machinery and Equipment
4 to 10 years
•
Computer Hardware
20% to 30% per annum
•
Transportation Equipment-Motor vehicles
7 years or 15% per annum
•
Transportation Equipment-Trucks etc...
5 years or 20% per annum
An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognized upon disposal or when no future economic benefits
are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of the
asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the item) is
included in the income statement in the year the item is derecognized. The assets’ residual values and useful
lives are reviewed at each financial year end, and adjusted prospectively, if appropriate.
INTRALOT Group
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31,
2022
141
As regards hardware and software leased under operating lease, these assets, in the group statement of
financial position are disclosed in acquisition cost values and are depreciated using the straight-line method
and according to the lower period between the useful life and the contract life, taking also into account their
residual value at the end of the relative contract life as well as the collecting cost. In case of the respective
contract’s renewal the assets’ remaining net book value is depreciated according to the renewed contract life.
The carrying values of property, plant and equipment are reviewed for impairment when events or changes in
circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. If any such indication exists and where the
carrying values exceed the estimated recoverable amount, the assets or cash-generating units are written
down to their recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the greater of fair value less costs of disposal
and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present
value using an after-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money
and the risks specific to the asset. In determining fair value less costs of disposal, recent market transactions
are taken into account. If no such transactions can be identified, an appropriate valuation model is used. These
calculations are corroborated by valuation multiples, quoted share prices for public traded companies or other
available fair value indicators. For an asset that does not generate largely independent cash inflows, the
recoverable amount is determined for the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. Impairment losses
are recognized in the income statement.
2.1.9 Borrowing costs
Since January 1, 2009, borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of
an asset that necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use or sale are
capitalized as part of the cost of the respective assets. All other borrowing costs are expensed in the period
they occur. Borrowing costs consist of interest and other costs that the Group incurs in connection with the
borrowing of funds.
2.1.10 Investment properties
Investment properties are measured initially at cost, including transaction costs. Subsequent to initial
recognition, investment properties are stated at historical cost less provisions for depreciation and impairment.
Investment properties are derecognized either when they have been disposed of or when they are permanently
withdrawn from use and no future economic benefit is expected from their disposal. The difference between
the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset is recognized in profit or loss in the period of
derecognition. Transfers are made to (or from) investment property only when there is a change in use. For
a transfer from investment property to owner-occupied property, the deemed cost for subsequent accounting
is the carrying amount at the date of change in use. If owner-occupied property becomes an investment
property, the Group accounts for such property in accordance with the policy stated under tangible assets up
to the date of change in use.
2.1.11 Intangible assets
Intangible assets acquired individually, are capitalized at cost and those acquired through a business
combination at fair values at the acquisition date. After initial recognition, intangibles are valued at cost less
accumulated amortization and any impairment in value. Useful lives of these intangibles are assessed to be
either finite or indefinite. Intangibles with finite useful lives are amortized as follows:
INTRALOT Group
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31,
2022
142
•
Software platforms
•
Central operating software
•
Central Network software
•
Licenses
•
Rights
Over the duration of the
longest contract
•
Other software
3 to 5 years
Central operating systems used for several projects are amortized over their expected useful life, up to 20
years. The expected useful life is determined by reference to the longest duration of the relevant contracts
and the Intralot Group’s renewal track record in respect of such contract. Software that does not fall within
the scope of particular contracts, is amortized at the expected useful life.
Amortization of finite life intangibles is recognized as an expense in the income statement apportioned to the
related cost centers. Intangible assets with indefinite useful life are not amortized, but are tested for
impairment annually, either individually or at the cash generating unit level.
Intangibles, except development costs, internally generated are not capitalized and the costs are included in
the income statement in the year they are incurred.
The carrying values of intangible assets are reviewed for impairment when events or changes in circumstances
indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. If any such indication exists and where the carrying values
exceed the estimated recoverable amount, the intangible assets or cash-generating units are written down to
their recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the greater of fair value less costs of disposal and value
in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using
an after-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks
specific to the intangible asset. In determining fair value less costs of disposal, recent market transactions are
taken into account. If no such transactions can be identified, an appropriate valuation model is used. These
calculations are corroborated by valuation multiples, quoted share prices for public traded companies or other
available fair value indicators. For an intangible asset that does not generate largely independent cash inflows,
the recoverable amount is determined for the cash-generating unit to which the intangible asset belongs.
Impairment losses are recognized in the income statement.
Useful lives are also assessed annually and any revisions do not have retrospective application.
Gains or losses arising from derecognition of an intangible asset (that are measured as the difference between
the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) are recognized in the income statement when
the asset is derecognized.
Research and Development Costs
Research costs are expensed as incurred. Development expenditure incurred by individual project is capitalized
if, and only if, the Group can demonstrate all of the following:
(a) the technical feasibility of completing the intangible asset so that it will be available for use or sale
(b) its intention to complete the intangible asset and use or sell it
(c) its ability to use or sell the intangible asset
(d) how the intangible asset will generate probable future economic benefits
(e) the availability of adequate technical, financial and other resources to complete the development and to
use or sell the intangible asset
(f) its ability to measure reliably the expenditure attributable to the intangible asset during its development.
INTRALOT Group
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31,
2022
143
Following the initial recognition of the development expenditure, the cost model is applied requiring the asset
to be carried at cost less any accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses. Amortization of
the capitalized development expenditure begins when development is complete and the asset is available for
use. Any expenditure capitalized is amortized over the period of expected future sales from the related project.
The carrying value of development costs is reviewed for impairment annually when the asset is not yet in use,
or more frequently when an indicator of impairment arises during the reporting year indicates that the carrying
value may not be recoverable.
2.1.12
Financial instruments
2.1.12.I Financial assets
(a) Recognition and measurement of financial assets
The Group recognizes a financial asset in its statement of financial position when, and only when, it becomes
a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. The Group initially recognizes trade and other
receivables on the date of transaction. At initial recognition, under IFRS 9, all financial assets, except for
certain trade receivables, are recognized initially at their fair value plus transaction costs (except financial
assets measured at Fair Value through Profit or Loss, where transaction costs are expensed).
(b) Classification of non-derivative financial assets
i) Debt financial instruments
Debt financial instruments within the scope of IFRS 9 are classified according to: (i) the Group’s business
model for managing the assets, and (ii) whether the instruments’ contractual cash flows on specified dates
represent “solely payments of principal and interest” on the principal amount outstanding (the “SPPI
criterion”), in the below three categories:
• Debt instruments at amortized cost,
• Debt instruments at Fair Value through Other Comprehensive Income (“FVOCI”), and
•
Debt instruments at Fair Value through Profit or Loss (“FVPL”).
The subsequent measurement of debt financial instruments depends on their classification as follows:
Debt instruments at amortized cost:
Include financial assets that are held within a business model with the objective to hold the financial assets in
order to collect contractual cash flows that meet the SPPI criterion. After initial measurement these debt
instruments are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. Gains or losses arising from
derecognition and impairment recognized in the income statement as finance costs or income, as well as the
EIR income through the amortization process. This category includes Group’s “Trade and other short-term
receivables”, “Other long-term receivables” and Bonds that meet the above criteria and included in “Other
financial assets”.
Debt instruments at FVOCI:
Include financial assets that are held within a business model with the objective both to collect contractual
cash flows and to sell the financial assets, and meet the SPPI criterion. After initial measurement these debt
instruments are measured at fair value with unrealized gains or losses recognized as other comprehensive
income in revaluation reserve. When the assets are sold, derecognized or impaired the cumulative gains or
losses are transferred from the relative reserve to the income statement of the period. Interest income
INTRALOT Group
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31,
2022
144
calculated using the effective interest method, foreign exchange gains or losses and impairment are recognized
in income statement.
Debt instruments at FVPL:
Include financial assets that are not classified to the two above categories because cash flow characteristics
fail the SPPI criterion or are not held within a business model whose objective is either to collect contractual
cash flows, or to both collect contractual cash flows and sell. After initial measurement these debt instruments
are measured at fair value with unrealized gains or losses, including any interest income, recognized in income
statement as financial income or expenses respectively.
ii) Equity financial instruments
Equity financial instruments within the scope of IFRS 9 are classified according to the Group’s intention to hold
or not for the foreseeable future and its election at initial recognition to classify at FVOCI or not, in the below
two categories:
• Equity instruments at FVOCI, and
• Equity instruments at FVPL.
The subsequent measurement of equity financial instruments depends on their classification as follows:
Equity instruments at FVOCI:
Include financial assets, which the Group intends to hold for the foreseeable future (“Not held for sale”) and
which the Group has irrevocably elected at initial recognition to classify at FVOCI. This election is made on an
investment-by-investment basis. After initial measurement these financial assets are measured at fair value
with unrealized gains or losses recognized as other comprehensive income in revaluation reserve. When the
assets are sold or derecognized the cumulative gains or losses are transferred from the relative reserve to
retained earnings (no recycling to income statement of the period). Equity instruments at FVOCI are not
subject to an impairment assessment under IFRS 9. Dividends are recognized as “finance income” in income
statement, unless the dividend clearly represents a recovery part of the cost of the investment.
Equity instruments at FVPL:
Include financial assets, which the Group has not irrevocably elected at initial recognition to classify at FVOCI.
After initial measurement these equity instruments are measured at fair value with unrealized gains or losses,
including any interest or dividend income, recognized in income statement as financial income or expenses
respectively.
(c) Derecognition of financial assets
The Group ceases recognizing a financial asset when and only when:
•
the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire or
•
the Group has transferred its contractual right to receive cash flows from an asset, or retains this right
to receive cash flows from an asset but has assumed a contractual obligation to pay the cash flows to a
third or more parties, or has transferred substantially all risks and rewards of the asset, or has neither
transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset but has transferred the control
of the asset.
INTRALOT Group
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31,
2022
145
When the Group has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from an asset or has assumed a contractual
obligation to pay the cash flows to a third or more parties, but in parallel has neither transferred nor retained
substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset nor transferred control of the asset, the asset is recognized
to the extent of the Group’s continuing involvement in the asset.
When the Group’s continuing involvement takes the form of a guarantee over the transferred asset, the extent
of continuing involvement is measured at the lower of the carrying amount of the asset and the maximum
amount of consideration that the Group could be required to repay (“the guarantee amount”). When the
entity’s continuing involvement takes the form of a written or purchased option (or both) on the transferred
asset (including cash-settled options), the extent of the entity’s continuing involvement is the amount of the
transferred asset that the Group may repurchase. However, in case of a written put option on an asset that is
measured at fair value, the extent of the continuing involvement is limited to the lower of the fair value of the
transferred asset and the option exercise.
(d) Impairment of financial assets
IFRS 9 requires the Group to recognize loss allowance for Expected Credit Losses (“ECLs”) on:
•
Debt instruments at amortized cost,
•
Debt instruments at FVOCI, and
•
Contract assets (as defined in IFRS 15).
ECLs are a probability-weighted estimate of credit losses and are based on the difference between the
contractual cash flows due in accordance with the contract and all the cash flows that the Group expects to
receive. The shortfall is then discounted at an approximation to the asset’s original effective rate.
Under IFRS 9, loss allowances will be measured on either of the following bases:
-
12-month ECLs: these are ECLs that result from possible default events within the 12 months after the
reporting date; and
-
Lifetime ECLs: these are ECLs that result from all possible default events over the expected life of a
financial instrument.
Τ
he Group applies the general model for recognizing expected credit losses rather than the simplified approach
based on the relevant exemption provided by IFRS 9 due to the wide dispersion of its activities both
geographically and due to the nature of the activities and the different characteristics of the counterparties
(from small local gambling agencies to large state lotteries and other gambling organizations).
This model follows a three-step approach to credit risk grading:
Stage 1: Performing financial assets without credit risk deterioration:
This stage includes financial assets whose credit risk has not deteriorated significantly since initial recognition
or which have a low credit risk at the reporting date. Expected credit losses are calculated and recognized for
the period of the next 12 months.
Stage 2: Performing financial assets with credit risk deterioration:
This stage includes financial assets whose credit risk has deteriorated significantly since initial recognition
(unless they have a low credit risk at the reporting date) but there is no objective evidence of impairment.
Expected credit losses are calculated and recognized for the full life of the financial asset.
Stage 3: Non-performing financial assets:
This stage includes financial assets for which there is objective evidence of impairment at the reporting date.
Expected credit losses are calculated and recognized for the full life of the financial asset.
INTRALOT Group
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31,
2022
146
For “Trade and other short term receivables”, “Other long term receivables” and “Contract assets” (as defined
in IFRS 15), the Group calculates the ECLs according to the stage of each of them, examining them on a
standalone basis.
For other debt financial assets (i.e. debt instruments at FVOCI) that are determined to have low credit risk,
ECL is based on 12-months ECL approach. However, when there has been a significant increase in credit risk
since initial recognition, the allowance will be based on the lifetime ECL approach.
A key factor in recognizing expected credit losses over the life of a financial asset or over the next twelve
months, is the credit risk significant deterioration after initial recognition or not, compared to the
corresponding credit risk at the initial recognition of the financial asset.
When determining whether the credit risk of a financial asset has increased significantly since initial recognition
and when estimating ECL, the Group considers reasonable and supportable information that is relevant and
available without undue cost or effort. This includes both quantitative and qualitative information and analysis,
based on the Group’s historical experience and informed credit assessment and including forward-looking
information. IFRS 9 makes a presumption that the credit risk on a financial asset has increased significantly
since initial recognition when contractual payments are more than 30 days past due. However, this
presumption can be rebut if there are reasonable and supportable information that is available without undue
cost or effort, that demonstrates that the credit risk has not increased significantly since initial recognition
even though the contractual payments are more than 30 days due.
The Group considers a financial asset to be in default when the borrower/debtor is unlikely to pay its credit
obligations to the Group in full, without recourse by the Group to actions such as realizing security, collateral,
mortgage, etc. Objective presumption for a credit-impaired financial asset, is the delay in collection over the
days set as a threshold for each of them (examining them on standalone basis). The range of days that have
been set as a threshold for the Group ranges between 30 and 210.
The maximum period considered when estimating ECLs is the maximum contractual period over which the
Group is exposed to credit risk.
The three components of the calculation model of ECLs are as follows:
•
Exposure at default ("EAD"): which represents the amount of the Group's exposure at the reporting
date.
•
Probability of default ("PD"): an estimate of the probability of default based on historical data,
assumptions and future estimates. The probability arises for each of the counterparties initially
calculating the DSOs (Days Sales Outstanding), which are then compared to the threshold set for that
counterparty to determine whether it is at default or not, and then weighted on the basis of its value
weight and exponential time factors.
•
Loss given default (“LGD”): which represents the estimate of the loss that will occur on the default
date. For the calculation of the loss due to default, any collaterals/securities held by the Group are
taken into account.
The Group's held collaterals/securities for trade receivables at the reporting date relate to cash, as well as to
mortgages on property.
INTRALOT Group
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31,
2022
147
At each reporting date, the Group assesses whether financial assets carried at amortized cost and debt
securities at FVOCI are credit impaired. A financial asset is “credit impaired” when one or more events that
have a detrimental impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset have occurred. Evidence
that a financial asset is credit impaired includes the following observable data about the following events:
–
significant financial difficulty of the borrower or issuer;
–
a breach of contract, such as a default or past due event;
–
the lender, for economic or contractual reasons relating to the borrower’s financial difficulty, having
granted to the borrower a concession that the lender would not otherwise consider;
–
it is becoming probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganization;
–
the disappearance of an active market for a financial asset because of financial difficulties; and
–
the purchase or origination of a financial asset at a deep discount that reflects the incurred credit
losses.
Loss allowances for financial assets measured at amortized cost are deducted from the gross carrying amount
of the assets. For debt instrument at FVOCI, the loss allowance is charged to profit or loss and is recognized
in Other Comprehensive Income.
The gross carrying amount of a financial asset is written off (either partially or in full) to the extent that there
is no realistic prospect of recovery. This is generally the case when the Group determines that the debtor does
not have assets or sources of income that could generate sufficient cash flows to repay the amounts subject
to the write off. However, financial assets that are written off could still be subject to enforcement activities
in order to comply with the Group’s procedures for recovery of amounts due.
2.1.12.II Non-derivative financial liabilities
Financial liabilities include trade and other liabilities, bank overdrafts, loans and borrowings, as well as financial
guarantee contracts.
(a) Recognition and measurement of financial liabilities
The Group recognizes a financial liability in its statement of financial position when, and only when, it becomes
a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. At initial recognition, financial liabilities are recognized
at fair value and in case of loans and borrowings, less directly attributable transaction costs.
(b) Classification of non-derivative financial liabilities
After the initial measurement, the financial liabilities are measured as follows:
Financial liabilities measured at amortized cost:
All interest-bearing loans and borrowings are initially measured at fair value less transaction cost directly
attributable to the issuance of the financial liability. Subsequently are measured at amortized cost using the
effective interest method. Amortized cost is calculated by taking into account any issue costs, and any discount
or premium on settlement. Gains and losses are recognized in the income statement when the liabilities are
derecognized or impaired, as well as through the amortization process.
Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss:
Include financial liabilities held for trading, that are acquired or incurred principally for the purpose of selling
or repurchasing it in the near term, are part of a portfolio of identified financial instruments that are managed

2022
148
together and for which there is evidence of a recent actual pattern of short-term profit-taking. Such liabilities
are measured at fair value and gains or losses from the measurement at fair value are recognized in the
income statement.
Financial guarantee contracts:
Include contracts that require the issuer to make specified payments to reimburse the holder for a loss it
incurs because a specified debtor fails to make payment when due in accordance with the original or modified
terms of a debt instrument. These contracts are recognized initially as a liability at fair value, adjusted for
transaction costs that are directly attributable to the issuance of the guarantee. Subsequently are measured
at the higher of the amount determined in accordance with IAS 37 and the amount initially recognized less,
when appropriate, cumulative amortization recognized in accordance with IFRS 15.
(c) Derecognition of financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are derecognized when the obligation is cancelled, extinguished or not exists anymore. In
the case that an existing liability is replaced by another from the same borrower but under substantially
different terms, or in case that there are substantial changes in terms of an existing liability, then the initial
financial liability is derecognized and a new liability recognized, and the resulting difference between balances
is recognized in the income statement.
2.1.12.III Offsetting of financial instruments
The financial instruments are offset when the Group, according to law, has this legal right and there is an
intention to settle them on a net basis (among them) or to realize the asset and settle the liability
simultaneously.
2.1.12.IV Derivative financial instruments and hedge accounting
The Group uses derivative financial instruments such as forward currency contracts, interest rate swaps,
currency swaps and other derivatives in order to hedge risks related to interest rates and foreign currency
fluctuations.
Such derivative financial instruments are measured at fair value at each reporting date. Derivatives are carried
as financial assets when the fair value is positive and as financial liabilities when the fair value is negative.
The fair value of these derivatives is mainly measured by reference of the market value and is verified by the
financial institutions.
For the purpose of hedge accounting, derivative financial instruments are classified as:
•
fair value hedge
:
hedging the exposure to changes in the fair value of a recognized asset or liability
or an unrecognized firm commitment
•
cash flow hedge
:
hedging the exposure to variability in cash flows that is either attributable to
particular risk associated with a recognized asset or liability (such as all or some future interest
payments on variable rate debt) or a highly probable forecast transaction
•
hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation.
At the inception of a hedge relationship, the Group formally designates and documents the hedge relationship
to which the Group wishes to apply hedge accounting and the risk management objective and strategy for
undertaking the hedge. The documentation includes identification of the hedging instrument, the hedged item
INTRALOT Group
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31,
2022
149
or transaction, the nature of the risk being hedged and how the entity will assess the effectiveness of changes
in the hedging instrument’s fair value in offsetting the exposure to changes in the hedged item’s fair value or
cash flows attributable to the hedged risk. Such hedges are expected to be highly effective in achieving
offsetting changes in fair value or cash flows and are assessed on an ongoing basis to determine that they
actually have been highly effective throughout the financial reporting periods for which they were designated.
Hedge accounting:
Fair value hedge
:
Gains or losses from subsequent measurement of the hedging instrument at fair value are recognized in the
income statement as finance income/expenses (or other comprehensive income, if the hedging instrument
hedges an equity instrument for which the Group has elected to present changes in FVOCI).
Cash flow hedge:
The effective portion of the gain or loss on the hedging instrument is recognized directly as other
comprehensive income in the cash flow hedge reserve, while any ineffective portion is recognized immediately
in the income statement as finance income/expenses.
Amounts recognized as other comprehensive income are transferred to the income statement in the same
period or periods during which the asset acquired or liability assumed affects profit or loss (such as in the
periods when the hedged financial income or financial expense is recognized or when a forecast sale occurs).
If the hedge no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting or the hedging instrument is sold, expires, is
terminated or is exercised, then hedge accounting is discontinued prospectively. When hedge accounting for
cash flow hedges is discontinued, the amount that has been accumulated in the hedging reserve and the cost
of hedging reserve remains in equity until, for a hedge of a transaction resulting in recognition of a non-
financial item, it is included in the non-financial item’s cost on its initial recognition or, for other cash flow
hedges, it is reclassified to income statement in the same period or periods as the hedged expected future
cash flows affect income statement.
If the forecast transaction or firm commitment is no longer expected to occur, the cumulative gain or loss
previously recognized in other comprehensive income are transferred to the income statement.
Hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation:
Hedges of a net investment in a foreign operation, including a hedge of a monetary item that is accounted
for as part of the net investment, are accounted for in a way similar to cash flow hedges. Gains or losses on
the hedging instrument relating to the effective portion of the hedge are recognized as other comprehensive
income while any gains or losses relating to the ineffective portion are recognized in the income statement.
On disposal of the foreign operation, the cumulative value of any such gains or losses recorded in other
comprehensive income is transferred to the income statement.
2.1.12.V Fair value of financial instruments
For investments that are actively traded in organized markets, fair values are determined in relation to the
closing traded values at the reporting date. For investments where there is no quoted market price, fair value
is determined by reference to the current market value of another item substantially similar, or is estimated
based on the expected cash flows of the underlying net asset that consists the base of the investment or on
acquisition cost.

2.1.13 Inventories
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost is determined using the weighted
average method. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business of the
Group, less the estimated costs necessary to make the sale. Provisions for impairment of the inventories value
are recorded when it is needed and recognized in the income statement.
2.1.14 Trade and other short-term receivables
Trade receivables are recognized and carried at original invoice amount less an allowance for
doubtful
provisions, that are estimated according to IFRS 9.
When the inflow of cash or cash equivalents arising from goods sale or services rendering is deferred, the fair
value of the consideration may be less than the nominal amount of cash received or receivable. When the
arrangement effectively constitutes a finance transaction, the fair value of the consideration is determined by
discounting all future receipts using the prevailing interest rate for a similar instrument of an issuer with a
similar credit rating. The difference between the fair value and the nominal amount of the consideration is
recognized as interest revenue in the future periods, in accordance with IFRS 9.
2.1.15 Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents in the statement of financial position include cash at bank, short-term deposits and
cash in hand along with other high liquidity investments that are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in
value and have an original maturity of three months or less.
Bank overdrafts are included in the short-term bank loans in the statement of financial position. Also, cheques
payables that have not been paid at the reporting date are included in short-term liabilities.
For cash flow statement purposes, cash and cash equivalents include what is defined above, without the
netting of outstanding bank overdrafts.
2.1.16 Long Term Liabilities
All long-term liabilities are initially recognized at cost. Following initial recognition, liabilities that are
denominated in foreign currency are valued at the closing exchange rate of each reporting date. Any interest
expenses are recognized on an accruals basis.
2.1.17 Provisions and Contingent Liabilities
Provisions are recognized when the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past
event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the
obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. When the Group expects some
or all of a provision to be reimbursed, for example under an insurance contract, the reimbursement is
recognized as a separate asset but only when the reimbursement is virtually certain the expense relating to
any provision is presented in the income statement net of any reimbursement. Provisions are re-examined at
the reporting date and are adjusted so as to represent the present value of the expense that will be needed
to settle the liability. If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are determined by
discounting the expected future cash flows at an after-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of
the time value of money and, where appropriate, the risks specific to the liability. Where discounting is used,
the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognized as a borrowing cost.
Contingent liabilities are not recognized in the financial statements but are disclosed, except if the probability
of a potential outflow of funds embodying economic benefits is remote. Contingent assets are not recognized
but are disclosed when the probability of a cash inflow is probable.
INTRALOT Group
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31,
2022
151
Provisions are recognized on each financial statements date (and interim) based on the best and reliable
estimate for potential excess of cost (payments to winners) in games with predetermined odds, as this is
provided by the contracts between the company and the clients. The provision amount arising from this
calculation is recognized and booked as an expense.
2.1.18 Leases
Entity of the Group as lessee:

Right-of-use assets
The Group recognizes right-of-use assets at the commencement date of the lease (i.e., the date the underlying
asset is available for use). Right-of-use assets are measured at cost, less any accumulated depreciation and
impairment losses, and adjusted for any remeasurement of lease liabilities. The cost of right-of-use assets
includes the amount of lease liabilities recognized, initial direct costs incurred, and lease payments made at
or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received. Unless the Group is reasonably certain
to obtain ownership of the leased asset at the end of the lease term, the recognized right-of-use assets are
depreciated on a straight-line basis over the shorter of its estimated useful life and the lease term. Right-of-
use assets are subject to impairment.

Lease liabilities
At the commencement date of the lease, the Group recognizes lease liabilities measured at the present value
of lease payments to be made over the lease term. The lease payments include fixed payments (including in-
substance fixed payments) less any lease incentives receivable, variable lease payments that depend on an
index or a rate, and amounts expected to be paid under residual value guarantees. The lease payments also
include the exercise price of a purchase option reasonably certain to be exercised by the Group and payments
of penalties for terminating a lease, if the lease term reflects the Group exercising the option to terminate.
The variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or a rate are recognized as expense in the period
on which the event or condition that triggers the payment occurs.
In calculating the present value of lease payments, the Group uses the incremental borrowing rate at the lease
commencement date if the interest rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable. After the
commencement date, the amount of lease liabilities is increased to reflect the accretion of interest and reduced
for the lease payments made. In addition, the carrying amount of lease liabilities is remeasured if there is a
modification, a change in the lease term, a change in the in-substance fixed lease payments or a change in
the assessment to purchase the underlying asset.

Short-term leases and leases of low-value assets
The Group applies the short-term lease recognition exemption to its short-term leases (i.e., those leases that
have a lease term of 12 months or less from the commencement date and do not contain a purchase option).
It also applies the lease of low-value assets recognition exemption to leases that are considered of low value
(i.e., below USD5.000). Lease payments on short-term leases and leases of low-value assets are recognized
as expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
INTRALOT Group
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31,
2022
152
Entity of the Group as Lessor:
In cases of hardware and software leasing through operating lease, these assets are included in the Group’s
tangible assets. The lease income that occurs is recognized on a straight-line basis through the contract period.
When fixed assets are leased through financial leasing, the present value of the lease is recognized as a
receivable. The difference between the gross amount of the receivable and its present value is registered as
a deferred financial income. The income from the lease is recognized in the period’s income statement during
the lease using the net investment method, which represents a constant periodic return.
2.1.19 Share capital – Treasury shares
Share capital includes common and preference shares without voting right, which have been issued and being
traded. Share premium reserve includes the excess of the shares par value received consideration. Any costs
directly attributable to the issue of new shares are shown as a deduction in share premium reserve.
Treasury shares represent shares of the parent company held by the Group. Treasury shares are stated at cost
and are deducted from Equity. Upon acquisition, disposal, issuance or cancellation of treasury shares, no gain or
loss is recognized in the income statement. The consideration given or received and the related gains or losses
from the settlement are recognized directly in Equity.
2.1.20 Share Based Payments
IFRS 2 “Share-based Payment” requires an expense to be recognized where the Group buys goods and services
in exchange for shares (“equity-settled transactions”) or rights over shares (stock options), or in exchange for
other assets equivalent in value to a given number of shares or rights over shares (“cash-settled
transactions”).
The Group provides stock options to executives and employees. The fair value of the executives and
employees, who receive these stock options, is recognized according to IFRS 2 as expenditure in the income
statement, with a respective increase of equity, during the period that these services are received and the
options provided. The estimation of the total amount of the stock options expenditure during the vesting period
is based on the provided stock options fair value at the grant date. The stock options fair value is measured
using the proper valuation model depending on the terms of each program, taking into account the proper
data such as volatility, discounting factor and dividend yield. Detailed information about the relative stock
option programs of the Company included in note
2.27
.
Any outstanding stock options during the reporting period are taken into account for the calculation of the diluted
earnings per share.
2.1.21 Staff Retirement Indemnities
Staff retirement indemnities are measured at the present value of the defined benefit obligations at the
reporting date, through the recognition of the employees’ right to benefits based on years of service over their
expected working life. The above liabilities are calculated using financial and actuarial assumptions and are
determined based on an actuarial valuation method (Projected Unit Credit Method). The net pension costs for
the period are included in the accompanying statement of comprehensive income and consists of the present
value of the benefits earned during the year, interest cost on the benefit liability, past service cost and any
other additional pension costs that are recognized within staff costs in income statement, and the actuarial
gains or losses that are fully recognized when they occur, in other comprehensive income without future
reclassification in income statement. Total past service costs are recognized in income statement at the earlier

of when the amendment occurs or when the Group recognizes the related restructuring or termination costs.
The Company’s pension benefit schemes are not funded.
During 2021, Group changed its accounting policy after International’s Financial Reporting Interpretations
Committee ("the Committee") issued the final agenda decision under the title "Attributing Benefits to Periods
of Service" (IAS 19), which includes explanatory material regarding the way of distribution of benefits in
periods of service following a specific defined benefit plan proportionate to that defined in Article 8 of Law
3198/1955 regarding provision of compensation due to retirement (the "Labor Law Defined Benefit Plan"). In
particular, the aforementioned final decision of the Committee's agenda provides explanatory information on
the application of the basic principles and regulations of IAS 19 in respect of the distribution of benefits in
periods of service similar to that of the Labor Law Defined Benefit Plan. This explanatory information
differentiates the way in which the basic principles and regulations of IAS 19 have been applied in Greece in
the previous years.
The implementation of this final decision results in the distribution of benefits for the last
16 years until the date of retirement of employees in accordance with the applicable legal framework. Based
on the above, the Company applied on 31/12/2021 the new accounting policy with retroactive application in
accordance with the provisions of IAS 8.
2.1.22 State Insurance Programs
The Company employees are covered by the main State Insurance Organization for the private sector (EFKA)
that provides pension and medical benefits.
Each employee is obliged to contribute a percentage of the monthly salary to EFKA while part of the total
contribution is covered by the Company. On retirement, EFKA is responsible for the payment of pensions to
employees. Consequently, the Company does not have any legal or constructive obligation for the payment
of future benefits based on this scheme.
2.1.23 Revenue recognition
Revenues are recognized in the period they are realized and the related amounts can be reliably measured.
Revenues are measured at their fair value of the consideration received excluding discounts, consideration
(bonus, marketing incentives, etc.) payable to customers, sales tax and duties. The following specific recognition
criteria must also be met before revenue is recognized:
•
Hardware and Software:
This category includes the supply of hardware and software (gaming
machines, central computer systems, gaming software, communication systems etc.) to Lotteries so
that they can operate their on-line games. Revenue is recognized by the Company either (a) as a direct
sale of hardware and software, or (b) as operating lease, or (c) as finance lease for a predetermined
time period according to the contract with the customer.
In the first (a) case, the income from the sales of hardware and software (in a determined value) is
recognized when the significant risks and rewards arising from the ownership are transferred to the
buyer.
In the second (b) case that consists income from operating lease, is defined per case either on straight-
line basis over the lease term or as a percentage on the Lottery Organization’s gross turnover received
by the player-customer (in this case income recognition occurs the moment that the player-customer
places the related consideration in order to participate in a game).
In the third (c) case that consists income from finance lease, it is defined using the net investment
method (the difference between the gross amount of the receivable and its present value is registered
INTRALOT Group
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31,
2022
154
as a deferred financial income). This method represents a constant periodic return, recognizing the
revenue from the finance lease in the period’s income statement during the lease term.
•
Installation, (technical) support and maintenance services:
This category includes the rendering
of installation, technical support and maintenance services to Lotteries so that they can operate their
on-line games. These services are sold either bundled (multi-element arrangements) together with the
sale of technology products (hardware and software) to customers, or on their own in separate
contracts with the customers. The Group accounts for the sales technology products (hardware and
software) and installation, technical support and maintenance services as separate deliverables of
bundled sales and allocates consideration between these deliverables using the relative fair value
approach. Revenue recognition related to support services occurs by reference to the stage of
completion of the transaction, at the reporting date.
•
Game management:
The Group undertakes the provision of value-added services, such as the design,
organization and/ or management of games, advertising and sales promotion, establishment of sales
network, risk management (for fixed odds games) etc. to organizations internationally. Group revenues
mainly consist of a percentage of the turnover of the games to which the above services are provided,
the size of which is contractually determined based on the market size, the type of services rendered,
the duration of the contract and other parameters. Revenue recognition occurs the moment that the
player-customer pays the related consideration in order to participate in a game and equals to an amount
calculated as a percentage on the total amount received by the lottery games organization from the
player-customer, excluding consideration (bonus, marketing incentives, etc.) payable to customer or to
customers of Group’s customer, when the Group operates as an agent.
•
Game operation
:
In this category, the Group has the full game operating license in a country. In the
case of operating the game each Group company undertakes the overall organization of the games
provided (installation of information systems, advertising and promotion, establishment of sales
network, receipt of the payments from players, payment of winnings to players, etc.
Revenue
recognition in this category occurs the time that the relevant events or draws are taking place and is
valued as the total amount received from the player-customer in order to participate in a game,
excluding consideration (bonus, marketing incentives, etc.) payable to customer.
Especially in the case of VLT revenue measured as the “net drop” (total price minus winnings/payout)
received from the player-customer.
•
Interest income:
Interest income is recognized in the income statement using the effective interest
rate method.
•
Dividends:
Dividend income is recognized in the income statement when the Group’s right to receive
the payment is established.
•
Rental income:
Rental income arising from operating leases on is accounted for on a straight-line
basis during the lease term.

2.1.24 Taxes
Income tax
Current and deferred income taxes are calculated based on the financial statements of each entity included in
the consolidated financial statements, based on the Greek tax laws or other tax frameworks within which the
foreign subsidiaries operate. Income tax is calculated based on the profit of each entity as adjusted on their
tax returns, for additional taxes arising from audits performed by the tax authorities and deferred taxes based
on enacted or substantially enacted tax rates. In some foreign countries, a tax is calculated according to a
simplified framework, sometimes referred to as a "simplified tax" which essentially replaces income tax to
avoid the complex calculations required. The Group classifies the charge for the simplified tax in the Income
Statement on the "Taxes" line.
Deferred income tax is provided, using the liability method, on all temporary differences at the reporting date
between the tax base of assets and liabilities and their carrying amount.
Deferred income tax liabilities are recognized for all taxable temporary differences except:
•
If the deferred income tax liability arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or an asset or liability in a
transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the
accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; and
•
In respect of taxable temporary differences associated with investment in subsidiaries, associates and
interests in joint ventures, except where the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences can be
controlled and it is probable that the temporary differences will not be reversed in the foreseeable future.
Deferred income tax assets are recognized for all deductible temporary differences and carry-forward unused
tax losses, to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible
temporary differences, or the unused tax losses can be utilized except if:
•
the deferred income tax asset relating to the deductible temporary difference arises from the initial
recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of
the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; and,
•
in respect of deductible temporary differences associated with investment in subsidiaries, associates and
interests in joint ventures, deferred tax assets are only recognized to the extent that it is probable that
the temporary differences will reverse in the foreseeable future and taxable profit will be available against
which the temporary differences can be utilized.
The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the
extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the
deferred income tax asset to be utilized.
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that apply at the year when the asset
is expected to be realized or the liability is settled, based on tax rates that have been enacted or substantively
enacted at the reporting date.
Deferred income tax is not measured by the Group as regards the undistributed profits of subsidiaries,
branches, associates and joint ventures due to the elimination of intercompany profits, from relevant
transactions, as they are considered insignificant.
Income tax relating to items recognized directly in Other Comprehensive Income is recognized in Other
Comprehensive Income and not in the income statement.
Sales tax
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognized net of the amount of sales tax except:
INTRALOT Group
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31,
2022
156
•
Where the sales tax incurred on a purchase of assets or services is not recoverable from the taxation
authority, in which case the sales tax is recognized as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part
of the expense item as applicable and
•
Receivables and payables that are stated with the amount of sales tax included.
The net amount of sales tax recoverable from, or payable to, is included as part of receivables or payables in
the statement of financial position.
2.1.25 Government grants
Government grants are recognized where there is reasonable assurance that the grant will be received and all
attached conditions will be complied with.
When the grant relates to an expense item, it is presented in the statement of financial position as deferred
income and is recognized as deduction in the relative expenses on a systematic basis over the periods that
the related costs, for which it is intended to compensate, are expensed.
When the grant relates to an asset, it is presented in the statement of financial position as deferred income
and is recognized as income in the profit or loss on a systematic basis over the expected useful life of the
related asset.
2.1.26 Earnings per share
The basic earnings per share (EPS) are calculated by dividing net profit by the weighted average number of
ordinary shares outstanding during each year, taking into account the average number of ordinary shares of the
parent held by the Group as treasury shares.
The diluted earnings per share are calculated by dividing the net profits attributable to the equity holders of the
parent company by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year (adjusted for
the effect of the average number of share option rights outstanding during the year).
2.1.27 EBITDA & EBIT
International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) do not define the content of the “EBITDA” & “EBIT”. The
Group taking into account the nature of its activities, defines “EBITDA” as “Operating Profit/(Loss) before tax”
adjusted for the figures “Profit/(loss) from equity method consolidations”, “Profit/(loss) on net monetary
position”, “Exchange Differences”, “Interest and similar income”, “Interest and similar expenses”,
“Income/(expenses) from participations and investments”, “Write-off and impairment loss of assets”,
“Gain/(loss) from assets disposal”, “Reorganization costs” and “Assets depreciation and amortization”. Also, the
Group defines “EBIT” as “Operating Profit/(Loss) before tax” adjusted for the figures “Profit/(loss) from equity
method consolidations”, “Profit/(loss) on net monetary position”, “Exchange Differences”, “Interest and similar
income”, “Interest and similar expenses”, “Income/(expenses) from participations and investments” ,“Write-off
and impairment loss of assets” and “Gain/(loss) from assets disposal”.

2.1.28 Significant accounting judgments, estimates and assumptions
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates
and assumptions that affect the amounts of revenues, expenses, assets liabilities and disclosures of contingent
liabilities that included in the financial statements. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its judgements,
estimates and assumptions that mainly refer to goodwill impairment, allowance for doubtful receivables –
expected credit losses, provision for staff retirement indemnities, provision for impairment of inventories value,
impairment of tangible and intangible assets as well as estimation of their useful lives, recognition of revenue
and expenses, pending legal cases, provision for income tax and recoverability of deferred tax assets. These
judgements, estimates and assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors including
expectations of future events that are considered reasonable under the circumstances.
The key judgements, estimates and assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of uncertainty at
the reporting date of the financial statements and have a significant risk of causing material adjustment to the
carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year, are consistent with those applied and
were valid at the reporting date of the annual financial statements
December 31, 2021.
Goodwill, tangible and intangible assets impairment and Investments
Management tests goodwill for impairment annually (as at 31 December) or more frequently if events occur or
changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may be reduced in accordance with accounting policy
described in note
2.1.11
.
INTRALOT Group
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31,

The carrying values of tangible and intangible assets and Investments are reassessed for possible need for
impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the value reported on may not be recovered in
accordance with the accounting principle described in notes

and
2.1.6
.
The recoverable amounts of cash generating units (CGU) have been determined based on “value in use”
calculations using appropriate estimates regarding future cash flows and discount rates. The determination of
value in use is obtained by the present value of estimated future cash flows, as expected to be generated by
each CGU (discounted cash flow method - DCF). The cash flows are derived from the most recent approved by
the administration budgets for the next three years and does not include any estimated future cash inflows or
outflows expected to arise from future restructurings or from improving or enhancing the asset's performance,
which is tested for impairment. The expected cash flow projections beyond the period covered by the most recent
budgets, estimated by extrapolating the projections based on the budgets using a steady or declining growth
rate for subsequent years, which does not exceed the long-term average growth rate for products, industries,
countries in which the Group operates, or for the market in which the asset is used. The Group makes estimates
and beyond the period of three years where has signed revenue contracts beyond three years as well as in cases
where management believes that based on market data and historical renewals track record of the Group, it is
very possible to renew relevant contracts beyond this period. Cash flow projections are based on reasonable and
supportable assumptions that represent management's best estimate of the range of economic conditions that
will exist over the remaining useful life of the asset, giving greater weight to external evidence. Management
assesses the reasonableness of the assumptions on which its current cash flow projections are based by
examining the causes of differences between past cash flow projections and actual cash flows. Management also
ensures that the assumptions on which its current cash flow projections are based are consistent with past actual
outcomes, provided that effects of subsequent events or circumstances, that did not exist when those actual
cash flows were generated, make this appropriate. Further details are provided in note
2.16
.
Income Tax Provision
The companies of the Group are subject to income taxes in numerous jurisdictions. The provision for income
taxes in accordance with IAS 12 "Income Taxes" refers to the amounts expected to be paid to the tax
authorities and includes provision for current income taxes and the provision for any additional taxes that may
arise as a result of the audit of the tax authorities. The provision for income tax of the Group for numerous
transactions require significant subjective judgment, making tax exact calculation uncertain during the
ordinary course of business of the Group. The estimate may differ from the final tax due to future changes in
tax legislation or to unforeseen effects of the final determination of the tax liability for each year from the tax
authorities. Where the final tax resulting from tax audits differ from the amounts that were initially assessed
and recorded, such differences will impact the income tax and deferred tax provisions in the period in which
such determination of tax differences occurred. Further details are provided in notes
2.12
and
2.32.B
.
Deferred Tax Assets
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized on temporary differences between the accounting basis and
the tax basis of assets and liabilities using the tax rates that have been enacted and are expected to apply in
the periods when the differences are expected to be eliminated. Deferred tax assets are recognized for the
deductible temporary differences and tax losses carried forward to the extent that it is probable that there will
be taxable income available to be used against which the deductible temporary differences and the carry
forward of unused tax losses. The Group considers the existence of future taxable income and ongoing follow

a conservative tax planning strategies in assessing the recoverability of deferred tax assets. The determination
of future taxable income is made through the systematic process of budgeting, at the parent company level
as well as at the level of subsidiaries, which are mainly based on already signed long-term revenue contracts.
Almost all of the Group's revenue (parent and subsidiaries) derives from long-term contracts signed making
the risk of discrepancies between budgeted and actual revenue as low, something that applies to the costs
that usually are in a proportion relationship with the revenue of the related contracts. In any case there is a
system of monitoring for the verification of these budgets and conducting relevant adjustments, resulting in
the safe keeping of any final discrepancies at low levels. The accounting estimates related to deferred tax
assets requires management to make assumptions about the timing of future events, the probability of
expected future taxable income and available tax planning possibilities. Further details are provided in
2.12.
Allowance for doubtful receivables – expected credit losses
In determining the expected credit losses and the recognition of a relevant doubtful provision, the Group
applies the general model as described in paragraph
2.1.12.I.d
of accounting policies. The information required
to determine whether there is a significant deterioration in credit risk after initial recognition and to determine
the stage to which each financial asset belongs and to calculate the provision for impairment is based on
historical and future data and includes significant estimates. Past experience and estimates for the future may
not lead to conclusions indicative of the actual amount of default when a relevant event will occur. Further
details are provided in notes
2.19
and
2.20
.
Provision for staff retirement indemnities
Liabilities for retirement benefits are calculated using actuarial methods that require management to assess
specific parameters such as discount rates, future growth rates of employee wages, the future rate of employees’
retirement and other factors such as the inflation rate. The Group's management estimates in the best possible
way these parameters on an annual basis, for the relevant actuarial study. Further details are provided in note
2.26
.
Estimation of assets useful life
The Group reassesses at each year end and, when appropriate, prospectively adjusts useful lives of tangible
and intangible assets that were recognized either through acquisition or business combination. These
estimates take into account new data and current market conditions. Further details are provided in
2.1.8
,
2.1.10
,

and

.
Contingent liabilities
The Group reviews the status of each significant legal case on a periodic basis and assesses the potential risk,
based partly on the view of legal department. If the potential loss from any litigation and legal matters is
considered probable and the amount can be reliably estimated, the Group recognizes a liability for the
estimated loss. In order to determine the probability and whether the risk can be estimated reliably, a
considerable degree of judgment of management is required. When additional information becomes available,
the Group reassesses the potential liability related to pending litigation and legal proceedings, and estimates
for the probability of an unfavorable outcome and an assessment of potential loss may be revised. Such
revisions in the estimates of the potential liability could have a material effect on the financial position and
income statement of the Group. Further details are provided in note

Provision for impairment of inventories value
The Group recognizes inventory at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Net realizable value is the
estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less estimated selling expenses. Provisions for
impairment of inventories are formed when necessary and recognized in the income statement. Further details
are provided in
2.21
.
Determination of lease term of contracts with renewal options
The Group determines the lease term as the non-cancellable term of the lease, together with any periods
covered by an option to extend the lease if it is reasonably certain to be exercised, or any periods covered by
an option to terminate the lease, if it is reasonably certain not to be exercised.
The Group has the option, under some of its leases to lease the assets for additional terms. The Group applies
judgement in evaluating whether it is reasonably certain to exercise the option to renew, considering all
relevant factors that create an economic incentive for it to exercise the renewal. After the commencement
date, the Group reassesses the lease term if there is a significant event or change in circumstances that is
within its control and affects its ability to exercise (or not to exercise) the option to renew (e.g., a change in
Group business strategy).
Consolidation of subsidiaries in which the Group holds less than a majority of voting right (de facto
control)
The Group estimates that on 31/12/2022 controls the subsidiary DC09 LLC, even though it holds less than
50% of the voting rights, based on the conditions specified in IFRS 10. Specifically, the Group, based on its
existing rights and the fact that has signed agreements with other shareholders, estimates that has the ability
to direct the activities that significantly affect the returns of this entity, i.e. the “relevant activities”.
Furthermore, holds significant participations/investments, has rights to variable returns from its involvement
with this entity and has the ability to affect the level of these returns. The above conditions of IFRS 10 for the
entity DC09 LLC, in which the Group holds on 31/12/2022 49% of the voting rights, define the framework on
the basis of which this entity is consolidated.
Business combination
Group when acquiring a company performs the necessary estimates in determining the fair value and the useful
life of the acquired tangible and intangible assets. Future events could cause changes in the assumptions used
in determining fair value with a corresponding effect on the results and equity of the Group. Further details are
provided in
2.1.6
.
Going Concern
The Management of the Group evaluates the going concern assumption based on the approved business plans
that cover a period of five years. Following this, it prepares Expected Cash Flows that cover a period of at least
12 months since the financial statements reporting date.
In the present fiscal year, given what is mentioned in note
2.1.1
, the Management of the Group has extended
the evaluation period of going concern in order to cover a period of 16 months since the financial statements
reporting date. The estimates and assumptions used to prepare the business plans and Expected Cash Flows are
based on historical data as well as on various factors that are considered reasonable given the circumstances,
and are reconsidered taking into account current and expected future market conditions. The preparation of

business plans also includes long-term assumptions for important economic factors that involve a significant use

Intangible assets (except for Goodwill) impairment test
Management tests Intangible assets (except for Goodwill) for impairment if events occur or changes in
conditions indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable in accordance with accounting practice
described in note
2.1.11
“Intangible Assets”.
The Group, due to the recent changes in revenue contracts portfolio, made an impairment test on 31/12/2022
for all operating systems that are used to its operating activities. The above intangible assets were classified
for impairment testing purposes to the following cash generating units (CGU): “Lottery”, “Sports Betting” and
“VLT”. The recoverable value of cash generating units is determined according to the calculation of their value
in use. The above calculation is based on after-tax cash flow forecasts from budgets that have been approved
by management. The determination was made by applying the Income Approach – Relief from Royalty
method, in which the value of intangible assets is determined by reference to the value of hypothetical royalty
payments, which are saved through ownership of the asset, compared to the licensing (licensing) of the
intangible assets by a third party.

From the impairment test carried out for 2022, no impairment indicator was identified in any of the
intangible assets that were included in the above CGU.
Recoverable amount sensitivity analysis:
On 31/12/2022, the Group analyzed the sensitivity of the recoverable amounts in a reasonable and possible
change of some of the basic assumptions (such as the change of half (0,25) of a percentage point of royalty
rate and the change of the discount rates of half (0,25) percentage point). This sensitivity analysis does not
show a situation in which the carrying amount of the above CGUs exceeds their recoverable amount.

Goodwill and Intangible assets with indefinite useful life impairment test
Management tests Goodwill for impairment annually (December 31) or more frequently if events occur or
changes in conditions indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable in accordance with accounting
practice described in note
2.1.6
“Business Combination and Goodwill”.
The Group proceeded with a goodwill impairment test on 31/12/2022 and the basic assumptions used to
determine the recoverable amount are described below. The Group examined on 31/12/2022 the goodwill of
this subsidiary for impairment, and based on the impairment test carried out, no impairment loss was
identified.
The recoverable amounts of cash generating units have been determined based on value in use calculations
using appropriate estimates regarding future cash flows and discount rates.
Specifically, goodwill arising on consolidation of acquired subsidiaries and intangible assets with indefinite
useful life are allocated to the following cash generating units (CGU) by geographical area. Goodwill
impairment testing is performed on subsidiary level.

Key assumptions:
The recoverable amount of each CGU is determined according to the calculations of value in use. The
determination is obtained by the present value of estimated future cash flows expected to be generated by
each CGU (discounted cash flow method - DCF). The cash flows are derived from the most recent approved
by the management budgets for the next three years and do not include estimated future cash inflows or
outflows expected to arise from future restructurings or from improving or enhancing the asset's performance
which is tested for impairment. The expected cash flow projections beyond the period covered by the most
recent budgets is estimated by extrapolating the projections based on the budgets, using a steady or declining
growth rate for subsequent years, which does not exceed the long-term average growth rate for products,
industries, countries in which the Group operates, or for the market in which the asset is used. The Group
makes estimates beyond the period of three years where it has signed revenue contracts beyond three years
as well as in cases where management believes that based on market data and renewals track record of the
Group, the renewal of the relevant contracts beyond the three-year period is very possible. Cash flow
projections are based on reasonable and supportable assumptions that represent management's best
estimate of the range of economic conditions that will exist over the remaining useful life of the asset, giving
greater weight to external evidence. Management assesses the reasonableness of the assumptions underlying
the current cash flow projections by examining the causes of differences between past cash flow projections
and actual cash flows. Management also ensures that the assumptions on which its current cash flow
projections are based are consistent with past actual outcomes, provided that subsequent events or
circumstances that did not exist when those actual cash flows were generated make this appropriate.

The value in use for CGUs affected (has sensitivity) of the following key factors (assumptions):
•
Sales
•
Growth rate in perpetuity (Perpetual Growth Rates), and
•
Discount rates
Sales:
Sales projections are derived from estimates of local management of various subsidiaries. These projections
are based on careful assessments of various factors, such as past performance, estimates of growth of the
local market, competition - if exists, possible changes in the institutional framework governing the gambling
market, the economic situation of the gambling industry and the market in general, new opportunities such
as lotteries privatizations, etc.

Discount rates:
The discount rates represent the current market assessments of the risks personalized for each CGU, having
made the necessary adjustments for the time value of money and possible risks specific to any assets that
have not been included in the cash flow projections. The calculation of discount rates based on specific
conditions under which the Group and its operating segments operate and calculated through the weighted
average cost of capital method (WACC). The WACC takes into account both debt and equity. The cost of
equity derives from the expected return that Group investors have for their investment. The Cost of debt is
based on the interest rate of the loans that the Group must facilitate. The specific risk of each country is
incorporated by implementing individualized sensitivity factors «beta» (beta factors). The sensitivity factors
«beta» are evaluated annually based on published market data.

Recoverable amount sensitivity analysis:
On 31/12/2022, the Group analyzed the sensitivity of the recoverable amounts in a reasonable and possible
change of some of the basic assumptions (such as the change of one (1,0) percentage point to the growth
rate in perpetuity and the change of the discount rates of one (1,0) percentage point). This analysis does not
show a situation in which the carrying amount of the Group's significant CGUs exceeds their recoverable
amount.

reference to the closing price at the reporting date. For investments where there is no corresponding market
price, fair value is determined by reference to the current market value of another instrument that is
substantially the same or estimated based on expected cash flows of the net assets underlying the investment
or acquisition value.

Reserves
Foreign exchange differences reserve
This reserve is used to report the exchange differences arising from the translation of foreign subsidiaries’
financial statements. The balance of this reserve in the Group on 31/12/2022 was €-102,7 million
(31/12/2021: €-96,9 million). The Group had a total net loss which was reported in the statement of
comprehensive income from the change in the fair value reserve during 2022 amounting to €7,5 million,
out of which loss of €5,8 million is attributable to the owners of the parent and a loss of €1,6 million to
non-controlling interest. The above total net loss for 2022 comes mainly effect of the reclassification of
foreign exchange translation reserve in the income statement in accordance with IFRS 10 principles and partly
to the negative fluctuation of USD, TRY and ARS against the EUR.
In 2022, an accumulated gain of €5.650 thousand was reclassified/recycled in the income statement (lines
“Exchange Differences” and "Profit / (loss) after tax from discontinued operations") from the reserve of
foreign exchange differences due to liquidation and sale of subsidiaries and associate companies.
Respectively, in 2021, an accumulated gain of €968 thousand was reclassified/recycled in the income
statement (lines “Exchange Differences” and "Profit / (loss) after tax from discontinued operations") from
the reserve of foreign exchange differences due to the liquidation and sale of subsidiaries and associate
companies.

Statutory reserve
Some of the Group companies are obliged, according to commercial laws in force in the country based, to
form a percentage of their annual net profit as reflected in their statutory books to a legal reserve. Under
Greek corporate law, companies are required to form at least 5% of their annual net profit as reflected in
their statutory books to a legal reserve until the aggregate amount of legal reserve reaches at least 1/3 of
the share capital. This reserve cannot be distributed during the Company's operation. Statutory reserve as
of 31 December 2022 amounts to €23,7 million for the Group and €15,9 million for the Company
(31/12/2021: €24,3 million and €15,9 million respectively).
Extraordinary Reserves
They concern among other, reserves formed under development laws, from the Company and certain
subsidiaries of the Group. For these reserves the tax liability has run out or permanently exempted from
taxation and therefore their distribution does not create further tax burden on the Group and Company.
Extraordinary reserves on 31 December 2022 amount to €4,2 million for the Group and €1,5 million for the
Company (31/12/2021: €4,2 million and €1,5 million respectively).
Tax free and specially taxed reserves
Tax-free and specially taxed reserves represent investment or development laws, and special laws reserves
and interest income, which are either tax free or taxed at 15% at source.
These revenues are not taxable provided that there are sufficient profits from which can be formed relative
untaxed reserves. According to the Greek tax legislation, these reserves are exempt from income tax,
provided they are not distributed to shareholders. The distribution of the balance of these reserves can
only occur following the approval of shareholders in a regular meeting and if the applicable taxation is paid.
The Group does not intend to distribute the balance of these reserves and therefore has not calculated the
tax liability that would arise from the distribution. Also the dividends received or received from resident
companies which have their registered office in another member state of the European Union, in which the
resident company participates within the meaning of article 11 of L.2578/1998, and the articles 48 & 63 of
(L.4172/2013) are exempt from taxation. The exempt amount is shown in a special reserve account
(POL.1007 / 2014), irrespective of the profitability or not. If this or any part of the reserve is distributed or
capitalized, the amount of the reserve is not added to earnings aggregated with other earnings. The balance
of the tax free and specially taxed reserves on 31 December 2022 was €40,7 million for the Group
(31/12/2021: €40,7 million) and €40,4 million for the Company (31/12/2021: €38,1 million).

from the new bank loan signed on 28/7/2022 (refer to paragraph below) from the subsidiary of
the Group, Intralot Inc, were utilized to repay the bonds ($254.042.911) maturing in 2025.
•
Bank Loan ($ 230 million) & RCF ($ 50 million): On July 28
th
2022, the US Subsidiary, Intralot,
Inc. signed a Credit Agreement with KeyBank National Association Inc. as Administrative Agent
and Issuing Lender and with a syndicate of US financial institutions for a 3-year Term Loan of
$230.000.000 plus a committed Revolving Credit Facility (RCF) of $50.000.000. The capital raised
were utilized to repay the bonds ($254.042.911) maturing in 2025. The new bank loans bear the
US Sub-group financial covenants for incurring additional debt with respect to the total Net Debt
(senior) to EBITDA (Net Leverage ratio <4 up to 30/3/2024 and <3,75 thereafter) and financial
expenses coverage ratio (Fixed Charge Coverage ratio >1,25). Both covenant ratios were in
compliance as of 31/12/2022.
•
Supplemental Indenture: On August 3
rd
, 2021, New Notes (Supplemental Indenture) with a
nominal value of €2,1 million due on September 15, 2050, were issued by Intralot Capital
Luxembourg, guaranteed by the parent company and subsidiaries of the Group.
The Group under the Senior Notes (Facility B) terms will be able to incur additional debt so long as
on an actual basis its consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio is at least 2,00 (31/12/2022: approx.
3,87) and will be able to incur additional senior debt as long as on an actual basis its
total Net Debt
(senior) to EBITDA consolidated (Senior leverage ratio) is not more than 3,75 (31/12/2022: approx.
3,67). Furthermore to the above, the Group can incur additional debt from specific baskets.
Additionally, the Group proceeded with the refinancing of Intralot Inc. debt with new bank financing
(Term Loan) maturing in 2025, the terms of which improve the access of the parent company to the
cash flows of the US subsidiary.
The new loan agreement signed with a consortium of six US financial
institutions also includes a revolving credit line (Revolver Facility) of $50 million, which will
significantly assist the Group's liquidity management.
The Company, the subsidiaries of the Group or other related parties, or agents on its or their behalf,
may from time-to-time purchase and/or re-sell bonds of the Group in one or more series of open-
market transactions from time to time. The Group does not intend to disclose the extent of any such
purchase or re-sale otherwise than in accordance with any legal or regulatory obligation the Group
may have to do so.
•
Other facilities:
Facility C: In February and March 2020 Intralot Global Holdings BV signed a loan agreement, with
relevant securities on financial assets, amounting up to €18 million as a revolving facility and
issuing bank letters of guarantee. Loan agreement bears a floating reference rate (relevant bank’s
cost of funding cost) plus a 1,65% margin. The above revolving facility has been fully paid as at
30/6/2021 and the in-force letters of guarantee amounted to €10,7 million.

2.26 STAFF RETIREMENT INDEMNITIES
(a)
State Insurance Programs:
The
Group’s contributions to the State insurance funds for the year ended 31 December 2022 that were
reported in the year’s expenses amount to € €9.630 thousand as stated in note
2.4
.
(b)
Insurance Programs in USA:
The US Subsidiaries have a defined contribution plan ("The Intralot USA 401 (k) Plan") under Section
401 (k) of the Internal Revenue Code, which covers virtually all their full-time employees. The program
requires matching contributions up to 6% of employees' salaries, and there is a provision for additional
contributions that are at the discretion of the Board of Directors. The Group's subsidiaries in the US
incurred expenses related to the above program, which in 2022 amounted to €1.734 thousand (2021:
€1.492 thousand) and are included under "Other staff costs" in note
2.4
. On retirement, "The Intralot
USA 401 (k) Plan" is responsible for paying employees' retirement benefits. Consequently, the Group
has no legal or constructive obligation to pay future benefits under this plan.
(c)
Staff Retirement Indemnities:
According to Greek Labor Law, employees are entitled to indemnity on dismissal or retirement, the
amount of which varies depending on the years of service, salary level and the way the employee leaves
employment (dismissal or retirement). Employees that resign or are dismissed for legally valid reasons
are not indemnified. The indemnity payable on retirement is 40% of the amount that would have been
payable to the same employee on dismissal on the same day (retirement date). In Greece, based on
customary practice these programs are not funded. The Group charges to the income statement the
expense attributable to the service provided by employees in the year, with a corresponding increase in
the provision for staff retirement indemnities. Any payments made to retiring employees, are set against
the related provision.
Independent actuaries calculated the Company’s and the Group’s liability for retirement indemnities.
The movement of the net liability as presented in the financial position, details and the basic assumptions
used in the actuarial study as of 31 December 2022 are as follows

receivables, trade and other payables approximates their fair value, primarily because of their
short-term maturities.
Fair value hierarchy
The Group classifies fair value measurements using a fair value hierarchy that reflects the significance
of the inputs used in making these measurements. The levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:
INTRALOT Group
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2022
204
Level 1: official quoted prices (unadjusted) in markets with significant volume of transactions for similar
assets or liabilities
Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or
liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices)
Level 3: inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable
inputs).
The Group and the Company held on 31/12/2022 the following assets and liabilities measured at fair
value:

Valuation methods and assumptions
The fair value of the financial assets and liabilities is the amount at which the asset could be sold or the
liability transferred in a current transaction between market participants, other than in a forced or
liquidation sale.
The following methods and assumptions are used to estimate the fair values:
•
Fair value of the quoted shares (classified as "equity instruments at fair value through other
comprehensive income") derives from quoted market closing prices in active markets at the
reporting date.
•
Fair value of the unquoted shares (classified as "equity instruments at fair value through other
comprehensive income") is estimated by reference to the current market value of another item
substantially similar or using a DCF model. The valuation through the DCF model requires
management to make certain assumptions about the model inputs, including forecast cash flows,
the discount rate, credit risk and volatility. The probabilities of the various estimates within the
range can be reasonably assessed and are used in management’s estimate of fair value for these
unquoted equity investments.
•
Fair value of the quoted bonds is based on price quotations at the reporting date. The fair value
of unquoted instruments, loans from banks and other financial liabilities, obligations under
leases, as well as other non-current financial liabilities is estimated by discounting future cash
flows using rates currently available for debt on similar terms, credit risk and remaining
maturities.
•
The Group uses derivative financial instruments such as forward currency contracts, interest rate
swaps, currency swaps and other derivatives in order to hedge risks related to interest rates and
INTRALOT Group
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2022
206
foreign currency fluctuations. Such derivative financial instruments are measured at fair value
at each reporting date. The fair value of these derivatives is measured mainly by reference of
the market value and is verified by the financial institutions.
Description of significant unobservable inputs to valuation:
The fair value of unquoted shares (classified as "equity instruments at fair value through other
comprehensive income") except that it is sensitive to a reasonably possible change in the forecast cash
flows and the discount rate, is also sensitive to a reasonably possible change in growth rates. The
valuation requires management to use unobservable inputs in the model, of which the most significant
are disclosed in the tables below. The management regularly assesses a range of reasonably possible
alternatives for those significant unobservable inputs and determines their impact on the total fair value.
Unquoted shares (classified as "equity instruments at fair value through other comprehensive
income")
On 31/12/2022 and 31/12/2021 the Group did not hold any unquoted shares (classified as “Equity
instruments valued at fair value through other comprehensive income”).

2.32 CONTINGENT LIABILITIES, ASSETS AND COMMITMENTS
A.
LITIGATION CASES
a. In Colombia, INTRALOT, on 22nd July 2004, entered into an agreement with an entity called Empresa
Territorial para la salud (“Etesa”), under which it was granted with the right to operate games of chance
in Colombia. In accordance with terms of the abovementioned agreement, INTRALOT has submitted an
application to initiate arbitration proceedings against Etesa requesting to be recognized that there has
been a disruption to the economic balance of abovementioned agreement to the detriment of INTRALOT
and for reasons not attributable to INTRALOT and that Etesa to be compelled to the modification of the
financial terms of the agreement in the manner specified by INTRALOT as well as to pay damages to
INTRALOT (including damages for loss of profit) or alternatively to terminate now the agreement with
no liability to INTRALOT. The arbitration court adjudicated in favor of Etesa the amount of 23,6 billion
Colombian pesos (approx. €4,4m). The application for annulment of the arbitration award filed by
INTRALOT before the High Administrative Court was rejected on 25/5/2011. The Company filed a lawsuit
before the Constitutional Court of Colombia which was rejected on 18/12/2012. On 31 August 2016, an
application was served to the Company requesting to render the abovementioned arbitration decision
as executable in Greece which was heard before the Athens One-Member First Instance Court and the
decision issued accepted it. The Company filed an appeal against this decision which was rejected by
the Athens Court of Appeals. The Company filed, before the Supreme Court, a cassation appeal against
the decision of the Athens Court of Appeals which was rejected. The Company filed, before the Athens
Court of Appeals, an application for the revocation of the above decision of the Athens Court of Appeals
that rejected the appeal, which has been scheduled for hearing, following a postponement, on 7
December 2023. The Company has created relative provision in its financial statements part of which
(€2,2m) has already been used for the payment to Etesa of a letter of guarantee amounting to
7.694.081.042 Colombian pesos (€1.481.083,57).
b. Against the subsidiary Intralot Holdings International Ltd., a shareholder of LOTROM SA and against
LOTROM SA, another shareholders of LOTROM SA, Mr. Petre Ion filed a lawsuit before the competent
court of Bucharest requesting that Intralot Holdings International Ltd to be obliged to purchase his
shares in LOTROM SA for €2.500.000 and that LOTROM SA to be obliged to register in the shareholders
book such transfer. Following the hearing of 28th September 2010 a decision of the court was issued
accepting the lawsuit of the plaintiff. Intralot Holdings International Ltd and LOTROM SA filed an appeal
which was rejected. The abovementioned companies further filed a recourse before the Supreme Court
which was heard and rejected. Mr. Petre Ion initiated an enforcement procedure of the above decision
in Romania. The companies will exercise legal means against the enforcement procedure according to
the provisions of the Romanian laws.
c. Mr. Petre Ion filed in Romania a lawsuit against Intralot Holdings International Ltd and LOTROM
requesting to issue a decision to replace the share purchase contract of its shares in LOTROM SA for
€2.500.000 (for which he had filed the above lawsuit) in order to oblige Intralot Holdings International
Ltd a) to pay the amount of €400.000 as tax on the above price, b) to sign on the shareholders book
for the transfer of the shares, c) to pay the price of the transfer and the legal costs. The Court of First
Instance rejected Mr. Petre Ion’s lawsuit. Mr. Petre Ion filed an appeal which was heard on 4 November
2014 and was partially accepted. The Company filed an appeal against this decision which was rejected.

Following postponements, the case was heard on 10 June 2016 and the respective first instance decision
was issued on 19 July 2016; the lawsuit against LOTROM was rejected while it was accepted partially in
respect to its part filed against Intralot Holdings International Ltd., obligating the latter to pay the
amount of the purchase and the legal expenses. Both Intralot Holdings International Ltd. and Mr. Petre
Ion filed appeals against this decision which was heard and were rejected. The decision became final,
while the application for cassation filed by Intralot Holdings International Ltd was rejected. While since
2018 there has been no action by the plaintiff, at the beginning of 2021 it was notified to Intralot
Holdings International Ltd. that, following a unilateral petition of the plaintiff (ex parte procedure, i.e.
without Intralot Holdings International Ltd. to be summoned and represented), a decision was issued
by the Cypriot court appointing Bank of Cyprus as custodian of the amount of the account held by
Intralot Holdings International Ltd. in that bank, as precautionary measure to ensure the payment of
the claim of the plaintiff pursuant to the decision of the courts of Romania. This decision has been
rendered enforceable in Cyprus by the local court in October 2020 also without any knowledge of Intralot
Holdings International Ltd. since the same unilateral procedure ex parte had been followed by the
plaintiff. After being informed on the above, Intralot Holdings International Ltd. objected before the
court of Cyprus which, on 23 July 2021, didn’t accept its arguments. Intralot Holdings International Ltd.
filed an appeal against this decision before the competent courts of Cyprus which is pending. Intralot
Holdings International Ltd. considers that has valid grounds to deny the execution of the decision in
Cyprus.
d. In Romania, the tax authority imposed to the subsidiary LOTROM SA, following a review, an amount
RON 3.116.866 (€629.733,51) relating to tax differences (VAT) of the period 2011-2016. The company
paid the amount of RON 2.880.262 (€581.929,89), while the remaining amount was counterbalanced
with VAT amount owed to the company. The company filed before the local tax authority an appeal for
the return of the amount of
RON 3.116.866 (€629.733,51)
which is pending.
e. On 30 July 2012, Intralot filed before the Athens Multi-member Court of First Instance a lawsuit
against the company “Hellenic Organization of Horse Racing S.A.” (ODIE) requesting the payment of
the amount of €2.781.381,15 relating to system maintenance services provided but not paid. The case
was heard on 6th May 2015 and a decision was issued accepting Intralot’s lawsuit in full. ODIE filed an
appeal against this decision which has been heard on 1 November 2018 before the Athens Court of
Appeal which was rejected with the decision no. 3153/2019 of the Athens Court of Appeal. The decision
has not been further appealed and, therefore, has become final and irrevocable. Moreover, Intralot filed
a recourse to the arbitration panel on 13 August 2012 against the same company ODIE requesting the
payment of the amount of €9.551.527,34 relating to operational services of integrated system provided
but not paid. The arbitration was concluded on 1st March 2013 and the arbitration decision no 27/2013
was issued vindicating Intralot and compelling ODIE to pay to Intralot the total amount requested
(€9.551.527,34). Intralot has not been notified of any legal remedy against the above arbitral decision.
In order to secure its claims, Intralot:
a) by virtue of the above arbitration decision, has already recorded on the mortgage books of the Land
Registry Office of Kropia a mortgage on a land property of ODIE and specifically on the property where
the Horse Racetrack of Athens in Markopoulo Attica is operating, and on the buildings thereupon, for an
amount of €11.440.655,35.
INTRALOT Group
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31,
2022
224
b) by virtue of the decision no 2209/2014 of the Athens Single Member Court of First Instance, has
already recorded on the mortgage books of the Land Registry Office of Kropia, a note of mortgage on
the same real estate of ODIE for an amount of €9.481.486,11, which, following the issue of the above
decision no. 3153/2019 of the Athens Court of Appeal, partially turned to a mortgage for the total
amount adjudicated, i.e. for the amount of €2.781.381,15.
c) advanced the procedure of compulsory execution against ODIE in order to execute its claims.
Furthermore, on 20 March 2014, Intralot filed before the Athens Multi-member Court of First Instance
a lawsuit against ODIE requesting the payment of the amount of €8.043.568,69 which is owed to it
pursuant to the “Agreement of Maintenance and Operation of the System of the Mutual Betting on Horse
Races of ODIE” dated 6 March 2012. The lawsuit was heard on 4 October 2017 and the decision issued
accepted the lawsuit. ODIE filed an appeal which was rejected by the Athens Court of Appeals in
December 2019. No petition for cassation and no appeal for failure to appear before the court have been
notified to the Company.
The confiscation on the above land property of ODIE in Markopoulo Attica imposed in the frame of the
abovementioned procedure of compulsory execution against ODIE, was reversed with the consent of
Intralot on 15 December 2015 in execution of the terms of the agreement dated 24 November 2015
between Intralot and ODIE which settled the payment of all above claims of Intralot. Pursuant to this
agreement, ODIE assigned to Intralot 2/3 of the rent which it will receive from the lease agreement
relating to that real estate to the company “Ippodromies SA”. The payment of the assigned rent amounts
has already been started.
Additionally, without the above decisions and encumbrances being affected, Intralot filed before the
Athens Multi Member Court of First Instance a lawsuit dated 8.3.2021 against ODIE (under liquidation),
the company “Hellenic Republic Asset Development Fund SA” (HRADF) and the Greek State, requesting
to be recognized that the above agreement is binding, in addition to ODIE, for HRADF and the Greek
State, to oblige all defendants to pay to INTRALOT €487.079,32 and to be recognized that all defendants
are obliged to pay to INTRALOT the total amount of €4.747.489,91, while HRADF and the Greek State
the amount of €12.676.846,6. The case was heard on 22 September 2022 and the decision issued
rejected the lawsuit. The company filed an appeal which has been scheduled for hearing on 30 January
2024.
f. A former officer of the Company filed a lawsuit before the Athens First Instance Court requesting to
be recognized that the Company had to pay him the amount of €121.869,81 as non-paid wages. The
decision issued partially accepted the lawsuit in relation to the amount of €80.685,42. Both parties have
filed appeals which are on 24 November 2020. The decision issued by the Athens Court of Appeals
accepts the appeal of the Company and totally rejects the appeal of the plaintiff. The decision is final. A
petition for cassation was filed by the plaintiff which was heard before the Supreme Court on 25 October
2022 and the decision is pending.
g. In Cyprus, the National Betting Authority had suspended the Class A license of the company Royal
Highgate Pcl Ltd. in which the Company has an indirect participation of approx. 35,08%, initially for a
period of two months, alleging non-compliance of Royal Highgate Pcl Ltd. with specific terms of the
license. Royal Highgate Pcl Ltd. considering that those requested by the National Betting Authority are
beyond the provisions of the law, filed a recourse before the competent administrative court of Nicosia
INTRALOT Group
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31,
2022
225
which was heard on 30 March 2018. The decision issued rejected the recourse for typical reasons. Royal
Highgate Pcl Ltd. filed an appeal against this decision which has been heard, following postponement,
on 8 March 2021 and was rejected for the same typical reasons. Royal Highgate Pcl Ltd. filed a complaint
application in relation to that case before the European Court of Human Rights which was rejected. In
parallel, Royal Highgate Pcl Ltd. had filed three more recourses against decisions of the National Betting
Authority relating to the suspension of the license of Royal Highgate Pcl Ltd. Following withdrawal of
two of the three recourses, the third one has been scheduled for hearing, following postponements, on
25 April 2023. National Betting Authority started the procedure for the revocation of the license of Royal
Highgate Pcl Ltd. and the latter submitted its arguments on 30 November 2018 without any further
actions from the National Betting Authority. On 31 December 2018, the contractual term of the license
of Royal Highgate Pcl Ltd. expired.
h. In USA, in South Carolina State, class actions were filed against the local lottery South Carolina
Education Lottery Commission and the subsidiary Intralot Inc. for breach of contract with the allegation
that because of malfunctioning of the system there were winning tickets which were not paid and
claiming a total compensation of approx. 35 million USD (€32,8 million). The local court accepted Intralot
Inc.’s motions to dismiss in two lawsuits, holding that the plaintiffs were required to exhaust
administrative remedies and failed to do so. The other side filed appeals against such decisions which
were heard on 9 November 2022 and the decisions are pending. The third similar lawsuit was rejected
finally by the court. The Group’s management, relying on local expert legal counsels’ opinion, considers
that the lawsuits have low probability of success. It is noted that with regards to such cases, the Group
has a respective insurance coverage.
i. A former employee of the Company filed two lawsuits before the Athens First Instance Court
requesting, with the first one, the payment of the amount of €133.179,47 for unpaid salaries and
€150.000 as compensation for moral damages and, with the second one, the amount of €259.050 for
overdue salaries calculated until 3 December 2019 and €150.000 as compensation for moral damages.
The first lawsuit was heard on 28 February 2018 and the decision issued partially accepted the lawsuit
in relation to the amount of €46.500,82. Both parties filed appeals against this decision which were
heard on 22 September 2020 and the decision issued orders the re-hearing of the case after the
submission of further evidences. The case was heard on 20 September 2022 and the Court of Appeal
issued a decision which partially accepted the lawsuit and adjudicated in favor of the plaintiff the amount
of €6.235,56. The second lawsuit has been scheduled for hearing, following postponements, on 26
October 2023. The Company had made respective provisions to its financial statements.
j. On 1 April 2019, the Company filed a Request for Arbitration before the ICC International Court of
Arbitration requesting to be declared that the defendant Sisal SpA has breached a contract signed with
Intralot by using, in Morocco, terminals and the software embedded therein. A decision of the ICC was

k. In Morocco, “La Société de Gestion de la Loterie Nationale” (“SGLN”) filed a lawsuit against the
Company and its subsidiary Intralot Maroc claiming that it exercised unilaterally its option to transfer to
it the equipment of Intralot which was used jointly by SGLN and the other local lottery “La Marocaine
des Jeux et des Sports” (“MDJS”) and, because of Intralot’s denial, it suffered damages in the amount
of MAD 18.000.000 (€1.612.253,12) which corresponds to the value of the equipment, while,
additionally, it requests MAD 34.000.000 (€3.045.367,01) as loss of profit. It is also requesting the call
of the letter of guarantee amounting to MAD 30.000.000 (€2.687.088,54). It is noted that according to
the terms of the Intralot’s contracts with the two lotteries SGLN & MDJS, the option for the transfer of
the equipment as well as any call of the letters of guarantee can only be exercised with a joint request
of both entities SGLN & MDJS. The case was scheduled to be heard, following postponements, on 7 June
2021 when a report of a judicial expert was submitted to the court and the court ordered, once more,
the submission of a third expert’s report which was submitted, and a new hearing date has been
scheduled for 7 April 2022. The court’s decision has been issued and adjudicates the payment to SGLN
of the amount of MAD 14.175.752,50 (€1.269.716,74). An appeal was filed against this decision and
the Commercial Court of Appeal of Casablanca issued a decision adjudicating the payment to SGLN of
the amount of MAD 6.000.000 (€537.417,71). The possibility of filing a petition for cassation is under
examination. Intralot Maroc has created provision in its financial statements for the amount of MAD
7.330.840,77 (€656.620,61).
l. In Morocco, “La Société de Gestion de la Loterie Nationale” (“SGLN”) filed a lawsuit against the
Company and its subsidiary Intralot Maroc claiming that an amount of MAD 33.600.000 (€3.009.539,16
)
is owed to it for investments which were not realized and, in addition, MAD 13.360.000 (€1.196.650,10)
for compensation (damages, loss profits). The judicial procedure is continuing as the submission of a
report of judicial expert is anticipated. The case is at an early stage and, therefore, no provision can be
made with regards to its final outcome.
m. In Malta a lawsuit was filed against the subsidiary Maltco Lotteries Ltd and the company ATG, having
its registered offices in Sweden, by a player of horse races betting games who is requesting the payment
of the amount of approx. €1,5m as non-paid winnings. The specific betting game is conducted by the
company ATG which refused the payment of the requested amount due to breach of the gaming rules
by the player. The case has been scheduled for hearing, following postponements, on 6 June 2023.
Malto Lotteries Ltd has created a respective provision in its financial statements.
n. In U.S.A. the funds Northlight European Fundamental Credit Fund, HCN LP and Bardin Hill Investment
Partners LP, claiming holding notes due in 2024 amounting approximately to 3,5%-4%, filed a complaint
on 29 July 2021 before the US District Court for the Southern District of New York against Intralot and
companies of its group (Intralot Capital Luxembourg S.A., Intralot Global Holdings B.V., Intralot, Inc.
and Intralot US Securities, B.V.), requesting to be declared that the exchanges of notes due in 2021
and in 2024 breach certain provisions of the indenture agreement governing the notes maturing in 2024,
as well as the New York legislation. The plaintiffs amended their complaint by on 31 January 2022 by
adding new plaintiffs (Halcyon Eversource Credit LLC, Halcyon Vallee Blanche Master Fund LP, HDML
Fund II LLC, CQS Credit Opportunities Master Fund, CQS ACS Fund, CQS Directional Opportunities
Master Fund Ltd & BIWA Fund Ltd.) and new defendants (Intralot U.S. Holdings BV and The Law
Debenture Trust Corporation P.L.C.). On 31 March 2022, Intralot requested from the court to consider
INTRALOT Group
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31,
2022
227
a motion to dismiss. On 21 April 2022, UMB Bank, N.A. filed suit as successor trustee against the above
defendants, for alleged breaches of certain provisions of the indenture agreement for the notes maturing
in 2024. The suit has been assigned to the same judge as a “related case”. The plaintiffs (the above
funds holding Notes due in 2024 and UMB Bank, N.A., as successor trustee of the Notes due 2024)
voluntarily dismissed without prejudice the above cases on 19 September 2022. A Plaintiffs’ motion
seeking a temporary restraining order to enjoin the notes exchanges was denied by the court on 2
August 2021 and the exchanges of notes due in 2021 and in 2024 were completed.
Until April 6, 2023, apart from the legal issues for which a provision has been recognized, the Group
Management estimates that the rest of the litigations will be finalized without a material effect on the
Group’s and the Company’s financial position and results.

Bilyoner İnteraktif Hizmetler AS completed the tax audit for the fiscal year 2020 with an obligation to pay
tax of 150 thousand TRY (€ 7.5 thousand). In Inteltek Internet AS has been notified of a dividend tax
audit for 2018 and a tax audit for Intralot Germany GMBH is in progress for years 2016-2018.
In Lotrom S.A. the audit initiated by the local tax authorities with respect to financial activities for
transactions subject to VAT for the period 2004-2014 was completed in the fourth quarter of 2016. By
order of the competent Prosecutor of Romania, the case was filed. No appeal has been lodged against this
provision. Another VAT audit for the period 2011-2016 was also completed and a tax audit report was
INTRALOT Group
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31,
2022
228
notified with an obligation to pay RON 3,116,866 (€630 thousand). The Company paid the full amount and
has already appealed the report.
In the context of Law 2238/94 Art. 82 par. 5 and POL.1159/2011, Betting Company SA has received a tax
certificate for the years 2016-2021, while Intralot Interactive SA for the years 2016-2020 (from 21/3/2022
was under liquidation process which finalized 20/3/2023), Intralot Services SA for the years 2016-2018
and 1/1-22/7/2019 when the liquidation process started (end of liquidation 20/9/2022). Intralot Tech –
Single Member SA has received a tax certificate for the fiscal years 2019-2021. Intralot SA has received
a tax certificate for fiscal years 2016-2018 and the issuance of a tax certificate is pending for the years
2019, 2020 & 2021.
In Intralot SA during the tax audit for the year 2011 which completed in 2013, were imposed taxes on
accounting differences plus surcharges amounting to €3,9 million. The Company lodged an administrative
appeal against the relevant control sheets resulting in a reduction of taxes to €3,34 million. The Company
filed new appeals to the Greek Administrative Courts which did not justify the Company, which filed an
appeal before the Council of State. The Company's management and its legal advisors estimate that there
is a significant probability that the appeal will be in favor for the most part. The Company has formed
sufficient provisions and has paid the whole amount of taxes.
In Intralot SA, during the tax audit for 2013, as well as the partial re-audit of 2011 and 2012 which both
completed in 2019, taxes, VAT, fines, and surcharges of €15,7 million were imposed. The Company filed
appeals against the relevant control sheets resulting in a reduction of taxes to €5,4 million. On 11.11.2020,
the Company filed six appeals to the Athens Three-Member Administrative Court of Appeal against
decisions of the Dispute Resolution Directorate of A.A.D.E. (Greek Tax Authorities) to the extent that they
rejected the company's appeals, requesting their annulment. The total amount charged is €5,4 million. As
of 7/4/2022 court decisions issued and amounted (against) to €4,6 million, while for the amount of €0,78
million, court decision were issued according to which: a) the first appeal was partially accepted and the
amount of €260 thousand was reduced by the court at €2,5 thousand, b) the second appeal (charged
amount €146 thousand) was partially accepted and and decreased by €135 thousand, and c) the third
appeal (charged amount €376 thousand) was rejected. Appeals will be brought against the last two
decisions. It is noted that the amounts charged have already been paid by the Company and therefore the
final result of the appeals will not result in any further financial burden for the Company.
Also, appeals for
an amount of € 218 thousand were issued court decisions according to which the amount of € 218 thousand
was reduced by the court to €2.5 thousand.
Also, during the tax audit of the years 2014 & 2015, completed in 2020, taxes and surcharges were
charged for accounting difference of €353 thousand. The Company filed appeals against the relevant
control sheets resulting in a reduction of taxes to €301 thousand. The Company on 31/5/2021 issued
appeals in the Administrative Courts, against the decisions of the Dispute Resolution Directorate of
A.A.D.E. , to the extent that the company’s appeals had been rejected, requesting their annulment. The
appeals were heard on 19/1/2022 and a decision is expected. The total amount charged amounts to €301
thousand. The Company's management and its legal advisors estimate that the case has high success
rates for the most part, either at this stage or at the highest court level. The Company has already paid
all the taxes and surcharges charged. The Company has formed sufficient relevant tax provisions
amounting to €3,5 million.
The tax audit of the fiscal years 2016 & 2017 was completed, and taxes were charged from accounting
differences plus surcharges of € 676 thousand which were paid in full while a partial tax audit of the fiscal

years 2018 & 2019 as well as the fiscal years 2020 & 2021 is already in progress after relevant orders.
Finally, a partial tax audit on VAT issues is in progress for the period 1/2/2010-31/10/2012 following a
request for assistance from the Romanian to the Greek tax authorities on transactions with a Romanian
company.

2.33 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT
Description of significant risks and uncertainties
The Group's international activities create several financial risks in the Group's operation, due to
constant changes in the global financial environment. The Group beyond the traditional risks of liquidity
risk and credit risk also faces market risk. The most significant of these risks are currency risk and
interest rate risk. The risk management program is a dynamic process that is constantly evolving and
adapted according to market conditions and aims to minimize potential negative impact on financial
results. The basic risk management policies are set by the Group Management. The risk management
policy is implemented by the Treasury Department of the Group which operates under specific guidelines
approved by management.
Credit risk
The Group does not have significant credit risk concentration because of the wide dispersion of its
customers and the fact that credit limits are set through signed contracts. The maximum exposure of
credit risk amounts to the aggregate values presented in the financial position. In order to minimize the
potential credit risk exposure arising from cash and cash equivalents, the Group sets limits regarding
the amount of credit exposure to any financial institution. Moreover, in order to secure its transactions
even more, the Group adopted an internal rating system, regarding credit rating evaluation, using the
relevant financial indices.
Liquidity risk
Prudent liquidity management means maintaining adequate liquidity, funding ability through approved
credit limits, and ability to repay liabilities. The Group has established specific policies to manage and
monitor its liquidity in order to continuously have sufficient cash and liquid non-core assets that can
meet its obligations. In addition, the Group has set up a system of monitoring and constant optimization
of its operating and investing costs in the framework of its liquidity management policies.
The following tables summarize the maturity of the financial liabilities of the Group based on 31/12/2022
and 31/12/2021:

Market Risk
1) Foreign Exchange risk
Fluctuations in exchange rates can have significant effects on the Group’s currency positions. Group
transactions are carried out in more than one currency and therefore there is a high exposure in foreign
exchange rate fluctuations against the euro, which is the main underlying economic currency. On the
other hand, the Group’s activity abroad also helps to create an advantage in foreign exchange risk
management, due to the diversification in the currency portfolio. This kind of risk mainly results from
commercial transactions in foreign currency as well as investments in foreign entities. For managing
this type of risk, the Group uses various strategies, such as foreign currency hedging with receipts of
foreign currency dividends by abroad subsidiaries. The Group’s policy regarding the foreign exchange
risk concerns not only the parent company but also the Group’s subsidiaries.

DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
For 2022 and 2021 the Group didn’t proceed with such contracts in order to cover currency risk.
2) Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or the future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate
because of changes in market interest rates. The Group's activities are closely linked to interest rates
because of investments and long and short-term borrowings. To manage this risk category, the Group
uses financial hedging instruments in order to reduce its exposure to interest rate risk. The Group's policy
on managing its exposure to interest rate risk affects not only the parent company but also its subsidiaries
for their loans concluded in euros or local currency. The Group's exposure to the risk of changes in market
interest rates relates primarily to long-term borrowings of the Group's floating rate. The Group also
manages interest rate risk by having a balanced portfolio of loans with fixed and floating rate borrowings.
On 31 December 2022, approximately the 63% of the Group's borrowings are at a fixed rate (31/12/2021:
100%) with an average life of approximately 2,1 years. As a result, the impact of interest rate fluctuations
in operating results and cash flows of the Group's operating activities is small.
3) High leverage risk
INTRALOT’s ability to incur significant additional amounts of debt so as to finance its operations and
expansion depends on capital market conditions that influence the levels of new debt issues interest
rates and relevant costs. Furthermore, INTRALOT may be able to incur substantial additional debt in the
future, however, under the Senior Notes terms will be able to incur additional debt so long as on an
actual basis its consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio is at least 2,00 (31/12/2022: approximately
INTRALOT Group
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31,
2022
233
3,87), and will be able to incur additional senior debt as long as on an actual basis the ratio of total net
debt to EBITDA (senior leverage ratio) is not more than 3,75 (31/12/2022: approximately 3,67).
Additionally, the Group proceeded with the refinancing of Intralot Inc. debt with new bank financing
(Term Loan) maturing in 2025, the terms of which improve the access of the parent company to the
cash flows of the US subsidiary.
The new loan agreement signed with a consortium of six US financial
institutions also includes a revolving credit line (Revolver Facility) of $50 million, which will significantly
assist the Group's liquidity management. The new Term loans bear the US Sub-group financial covenants

100% and the country is now considered as a hyperinflationary economy for accounting purposes under
IAS 29. The Group applied, for the first time in the nine months of 2018, IAS 29 and restated to current
purchasing power in the financial statements (transactions and non-cash balances) of the above
subsidiaries that use ARS as functional currency and present their financial statements at historical cost.
The restatement was made using the (IPIM) Internal Index Wholesale Prices and applied pursuant to
IAS 29, as if Argentina has always been a hyperinflationary economy.
Since the first semester of 2022, the cumulative 3-year inflation index in Turkey has exceeded 100%
and the country is now considered as a hyperinflationary economy for accounting purposes under IAS
29. The Group applied, for the first time in the six months of 2022, IAS 29 and restated to current
purchasing power in the financial statements (transactions and non-cash balances) of its subsidiary
BILYONER INTERAKTIF HIZMELTER AS GROUP that uses TRY as functional currency and presents its
financial statements at historical cost.
The result (after the relevant consolidation eliminations) from the restatement of the non-cash assets,
liabilities and transactions of the nine months of 2022 following the application of IAS 29 amounted to
a gain of €15.380 thousand and was recorded in the Income Statement (line “Gain/(loss) on net

2.36 SIGNIFICANT FLUCTUATIONS, RECLASSIFICATIONS & REVERSALS
Income Statement
Below are the most significant fluctuations in the Group's Income Statement for the period 1/1-
31/12/2022 compared to 1/1-31/12/2021:
Sale proceeds
Total revenue decreased by €-21,2 million, or -5,1%, from €414,0 million in the twelve months period
ended December 31, 2021, to 392,8 million in the twelve months period ended December 31,2022.
This decrease is mainly due to lower revenues in the Licensed Operations sector, by €-43,7 million, or -
32,9% compared to the previous period. Specifically, the turnover in Malta decreased by €-51,5 million,
or -54,0% compared to the previous year, due to the expiration of the license in early July 2022, while
the increase in revenue in Argentina by €+7,7 million, or +20,5% on an annual basis, offset the above,
influenced by the development of the local market.
In the Technology and Support Services sector, there was an increase of €+19,5 million, or +8,3%, mainly
due to higher revenues from our activities in the USA (€+8,9 million, positively affected by the Euro
devaluation), Croatia (€+5,8 million, as a result of the full contribution of our new contract which started
in late April 2021), Australia (€+5,7 million, due to the recovery from the slowdown associated with
COVID-19), and lower performance from other jurisdictions (€-0,9 million, from service sales).
In the sector of Gaming Management (B2B/B2G), the Group presented an overall increase in revenue by
€+3,1 million, or +6,5%. The increase is mainly attributed to the increased revenue from Bilyoner activities
in Turkey (€+1,7 million, favored by the growth of the online market), Morocco (€+0,9 million, due to
market development) and sports betting in the US, specifically in Montana and Washington DC (€+0,4
million).
Gross Profit
Gross profit increased by €+13,9 million, or by 12,2%, from €113,8 million in the period 1/1-
31/12/2021 to €127,7 million in the period 1/1-31/12/2022. This increase is mainly driven by the
continued cost containment initiatives in Greece.
Other Operating Income
Other operating income increased by €+3,3 million, or +15,2%, from €21,6 million in the period 1/1-
31/12/2021 to €24,9 million in the period 1/1-31/12/2022. This increase is mainly due to higher income
equipment lease income in USA.
Selling Expenses
Selling expenses decreased by €-1,5 million or -6.6%, from €22,6 million in the period 1/1-31/12/2021
to €21,1 million in the period 1/1-31/12/2022.
Administrative Expenses
Administrative expenses increased by €+5,1 million, or +7,5%, from €67,9 million in the period 1/1-
31/12/2021 to €73,1 million in the period 1/1-31/12/2022.

Reorganization Expenses
Reorganization expenses decreased by €-16.0 million or -93.0% from €17.2 million in the period of 1/1-
31/12/2021, which refer mainly to advisors’ fees related to the restructuring of the 2021 and 2024 bonds,
to €1.2 million in the period of 1/1-31/12/2022.
Other operating expenses
Other operating expenses remained at the same level as in 2021, with a small increase of €0,2 million, or
4.5% from €3.9 million in the period of 1/1-31/12/2021 to €4.1 million in the period of 1/1-31/12/2022
EBITDA
EBITDA increased by €12,4 million, or by 11,3%, from €110,4 million in the period 1/1-31/12/2021 to
€122,9 million in the period 1/1-31/12/2022. This increase is mainly driven by the increase in Gross Profit
and Other operating income as analyzed above.
Income/(expenses) from participations and investments
Income/(expenses) from participations and investments came up to net expense of €-0,9 million in the
period 1/1-31/12/2022 from net income of €+45,1 million in the period 1/1-31/12/2021. This decrease is
mainly due to the income of €43 million from the exchange of 34,27% of the share capital of Intralot US
Securities B.V. (indirectly parent company of Intralot, Inc.) to holders of existing bonds maturing in 2024
with a nominal value of €118,24 million, which was recognized by the Group in 2021.
Gain / (losses) from assets disposal, impairment loss and write-off of assets
Gain / (loss) from assets disposal, impairment loss & write off of assets came up to net income of €+0,6
million in the period 1/1-31/12/2022, compared to a net expense of €-16,3 million in the period 1/1-
31/12/2021. This improvement is due to higher provisions for impairment of non-current assets in 2021,
mainly due to COVID-19. Further analysis is provided in notes
2.14
and
2.16.
Interest and Similar Expenses
Interest and similar expenses decreased by €-22,0 million, or -36,2%, from €60,9 million in the period
1/1-31/12/2021 to €38,9 million in the period 1/1-31/12/2022. This reduction is mainly due to lower
interest expenses, lower expenses for guarantees compared to 2021, as well as to the non-recurring
expenses in 2021 related to loan restructuring.
Interest and Related Income
Interest and related income decreased by €45,2 million from €47,4 million in the period 1/1-31/12/2021
to €2,2 million in the period 1/1-31/12/2022. This reduction is mainly due to non-recurring interest
income recognized in 2021 related to the refinancing of the September 2021 bonds.
Exchange Differences
Positive impact from foreign exchange results (€0,7 million compared to 2021), as a result of valuation
of cash balances in foreign currency outside each entity's functional currency and evaluating the
commercial and loan liabilities of various subsidiaries abroad in euros, as well as the positive effect of
reclassifying exchange differences reserve in the Income Statement in accordance with IFRS 10.

Consolidation of associates and joint ventures through the equity method remained unchanged, exhibiting
a slight increase from a profit of €0.2 million in the twelve period ended 2021 to €0.3 million in the twelve
months period 2022 (mainly deriving by the Group’s associates in Asia).
Taxes
Taxes in the period 1/1-31/12/2022 amounted to €10,8 million, versus €4,4 million in the period 1/1-

2.37 MACROECONOMIC ENVIRONMENT
ECONOMIC CONDITIONS
Economies around the world are navigating through a challenging period of inflationary pressures and
rising interest rates that weigh on economic growth and create a wide range of implications on businesses.
Increased interest rates have a direct impact on the financing servicing costs of the Intralot Group, while
the outlook is that central banks will not start to ease their monetary policy before the end of 2023.
High inflation levels are tightening financial conditions in most regions, impacting most industries. The
indirect effects on our Group’s business activities from the flagging economic growth and the increase in
operating expenses due to wage inflation pressures cannot be overlooked.
The geopolitical tension arising from the war in Ukraine with the energy crisis, the supply chain disruptions
and the rising inflation are factors that are expected to determine the economic outlook. Although our
Group does not have exposure in terms of operations or dependency on suppliers in Ukraine and Russia,
the potential risks from the reduction in the household disposable income and the possible increase in
operating expenses due to inflationary pressures cannot be overlooked.
The Management of the Company closely monitors geopolitical and economic developments and is ready
to take all the necessary measures for protecting its operations.
2.38 SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On April 6, 2023, INTRALOT announced that its U.S. subsidiary, “INTRALOT, Inc”, signed a 3-year
contract, including an option of three annual extensions, with British Columbia Lottery Corporation
