FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Throughout this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we make “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements describe future expectations, plans, results or strategies and can often be identified by the use of terminology such as “may,” “will,” “estimate,” “intend,” “plan,” “continue,” “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “target,” “should,” “could,” “potential,” “opportunity,” “goal,” or similar terminology. The forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are generally located in the material set forth under the heading “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” but may be found in other locations as well. These statements are based upon management’s current expectations, assumptions and estimates and are not guarantees of timing, future results or performance. Therefore, you should not rely on any of these forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. Actual results may differ materially from those contemplated in these statements due to a variety of risks and uncertainties and other factors, including, among other things:
•our inability to successfully execute our strategy;
•slow growth of new gaming jurisdictions, slow addition of casinos in existing jurisdictions and declines in the replacement cycle of gaming machines;
•risks relating to foreign operations, including anti-corruption laws, fluctuations in currency rates, restrictions on the payment of dividends from earnings, restrictions on the import of products and financial instability;
•difficulty predicting what impact, if any, new tariffs imposed by and other trade actions taken by the U.S. and foreign jurisdictions could have on our business;
•U.S. and international economic and industry conditions, including increases in benchmark interest rates and the effects of inflation;
•public perception of our response to environmental, social and governance issues;

•resulting pricing variations and other impacts of our common stock being listed to trade on more than one stock exchange;
•level of our indebtedness, higher interest rates, availability or adequacy of cash flows and liquidity to satisfy indebtedness, other obligations or future cash needs;
•inability to further reduce or refinance our indebtedness;
•restrictions and covenants in debt agreements, including those that could result in acceleration of the maturity of our indebtedness;
•competition;
•inability to win, retain or renew, or unfavorable revisions of, existing contracts, and the inability to enter into new contracts;
•risks and uncertainties of potential changes in U.K. gaming legislation, including any new or revised licensing and taxation regimes, responsible gambling requirements and/or sanctions on unlicensed providers;
•inability to adapt to, and offer products that keep pace with, evolving technology, including any failure of our investment of significant resources in our R&D efforts;
•the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted following completion of the SciPlay merger;
•failure to retain key management and employees;
•unpredictability and severity of catastrophic events, including but not limited to acts of terrorism, war, armed conflicts or hostilities, the impact such events may have on our customers, suppliers, employees, consultants, business partners or operations, as well as management’s response to any of the aforementioned factors;
•changes in demand for our products and services;
•dependence on suppliers and manufacturers;
•SciPlay’s dependence on certain key providers;
•ownership changes and consolidation in the gaming industry;
•fluctuations in our results due to seasonality and other factors;

•the possibility that we may be unable to achieve expected operational, strategic and financial benefits of the SciPlay merger;
5

•security and integrity of our products and systems, including the impact of any security breaches or cyber-attacks;
•protection of our intellectual property, inability to license third-party intellectual property and the intellectual property rights of others;

•legislative interpretation and enforcement, regulatory perception and regulatory risks with respect to gaming, especially internet wagering and social gaming;
•changes in tax laws or tax rulings, or the examination of our tax positions;
•opposition to legalized gaming or the expansion thereof and potential restrictions on internet wagering;
•significant opposition in some jurisdictions to interactive social gaming, including social casino gaming and how such opposition could lead these jurisdictions to adopt legislation or impose a regulatory framework to govern interactive social gaming or social casino gaming specifically, and how this could result in a prohibition on interactive social gaming or social casino gaming altogether, restrict our ability to advertise our games, or substantially increase our costs to comply with these regulations;
•expectations of shift to regulated digital gaming;
•inability to develop successful products and services and capitalize on trends and changes in our industries, including the expansion of internet and other forms of digital gaming;
•the continuing evolution of the scope of data privacy and security regulations, and our belief that the adoption of increasingly restrictive regulations in this area is likely within the U.S. and other jurisdictions;

Additional information regarding risks and uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contemplated in forward-looking statements is included from time to time in our filings with the SEC, including under “Risk Factors” in Part II, Item 1A of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and Part I, Item 1A in our 2023 10-K. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made and, except for our ongoing obligations under the U.S. federal securities laws, we undertake no and expressly disclaim any obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
You should also note that this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q may contain references to industry market data and certain industry forecasts. Industry market data and industry forecasts are obtained from publicly available information and industry publications. Industry publications generally state that the information contained therein has been obtained from sources believed to be reliable, but that the accuracy and completeness of that information is not guaranteed. Although we believe industry information to be accurate, it is not independently verified by us and we do not make any representation as to the accuracy of that information. In general, we believe there is less publicly available information concerning the international gaming, social and digital gaming industries than the same industries in the U.S.
Due to rounding, certain numbers presented herein may not precisely recalculate.

LIGHT & WONDER, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited, amounts in USD, table amounts in millions, except per share amounts)
(1) Description of the Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Description of the Business
We are a leading cross-platform global games company with a focus on content and digital markets. Our portfolio of revenue-generating activities primarily includes supplying game content and gaming machines, CMSs and table game products and services to licensed gaming entities; providing social casino and other mobile games, including casual gaming, to retail customers; and providing a comprehensive suite of digital gaming content, distribution platforms and player account management systems, as well as various other iGaming content and services. We report our results of operations in three business segments—Gaming, SciPlay and iGaming—representing our different products and services.
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and include the accounts of L&W, its wholly owned subsidiaries, and those subsidiaries in which we have a controlling financial interest. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
In the opinion of L&W and its management, we have made all adjustments necessary to present fairly our consolidated financial position, results of operations, comprehensive income and cash flows for the periods presented. Such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our 2023 10-K. Interim results of operations are not necessarily indicative of results of operations to be expected for a full year.
Significant Accounting Policies
There have been no changes to our significant accounting policies described within the Notes of our 2023 10-K.
Other Income (Expense), net
Other income (expense), net includes gains and losses from foreign currency transactions, interest income, earnings (losses) from equity investments and other items. Other income (expense), net for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 primarily consisted of interest income of $5 million and $10 million, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, other income (expense), net primarily consisted of foreign currency transaction losses, which totaled $25 million and $38 million, respectively.
Computation of Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) Attributable to L&W Per Share
Basic and diluted net income (loss) attributable to L&W per share are based upon net income (loss) attributable to L&W divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income attributable to L&W per share reflects the effect of the assumed exercise of stock options and RSUs only in the periods in which such effect would have been dilutive to net income.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, we included 2 million and 2 million, respectively, of common stock equivalents in the calculation of diluted net income attributable to L&W per share. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, we included 2 million of common stock equivalents in the calculation of diluted net income attributable to L&W per share. For the three months ended June 30, 2023, basic and diluted net loss attributable to L&W per share were the same, as all common stock equivalents would have been anti-dilutive for that period. We excluded 2 million of stock options and 2 million of RSUs outstanding from the calculation of diluted weighted-average common shares outstanding for the three months ended June 30, 2023.
New Accounting Guidance
There have been no recent accounting pronouncements or changes in accounting pronouncements since those described within the Notes of our 2023 10-K that are expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

iGaming |  | $ | 74 |  |  | $ | 70 |  |  | $ | 148 |  |  | $ | 134 |
(1) Other represents $24 million and $36 million in revenue generated via our proprietary direct-to-consumer platform for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, along with advertising and other revenue, which were not material for the periods presented.

The amount of rental income revenue included in services revenue within the consolidated statement of operations that is outside the scope of ASC 606 was $136 million and $263 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, and $123 million and $240 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively.
Contract Liabilities and Other Disclosures
The following table summarizes the activity in our contract liabilities for the reporting period:

|  | Six Months Ended June 30, 2024
Contract liability balance, beginning of period(1) |  | $ | 27 |
Liabilities recognized during the period |  | 14 |
Amounts recognized in revenue from beginning balance |  | (16) |
Contract liability balance, end of period(1) |  | $ | 25 |
(1) Contract liabilities are included within Accrued liabilities and Other long-term liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets.

The timing of revenue recognition, billings and cash collections results in billed receivables, unbilled receivables (contract assets), and customer advances and deposits (contract liabilities) on our consolidated balance sheets. Other than contracts with customers with financing arrangements exceeding 12 months, revenue recognition is generally proximal to conversion to cash. The following table summarizes our balances in these accounts for the periods indicated (other than contract liabilities disclosed above):

| Receivables |  | Contract Assets(1)
Beginning of period balance | $ | 543 |  |  | $ | 24 |
End of period balance, June 30, 2024 | 635 |  |  | 26 |
(1) Contract assets are included primarily within Prepaid expenses, deposits and other current assets in our consolidated balance sheets.

As of June 30, 2024, we did not have material unsatisfied performance obligations for contracts expected to be long-term or contracts for which we recognize revenue at an amount other than that for which we have the right to invoice for goods or services delivered or performed.
(3) Business Segments
We report our operations in three business segments—Gaming, SciPlay and iGaming—representing our different products and services. A detailed discussion regarding the products and services from which each reportable business segment derives its revenue is included in Notes 3 and 4 in our 2023 10-K.
In evaluating financial performance, our Chief Operating Decision Maker (defined as our Chief Executive Officer) focuses on AEBITDA as management’s primary segment measure of profit or loss, which is described in footnote (2) to the
12

below table. The accounting policies for our business segments are the same as those described within the Notes in our 2023 10-K. The following tables present our segment information:

The activity in our allowance for receivable credit losses for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 is as follows:

| 2024 |  | 2023
| Total |  | U.S. and Canada |  | International |  | Total

Credit Quality of Receivables
We have certain concentrations of outstanding receivables in international locations that impact our assessment of the credit quality of our receivables. We monitor the macroeconomic and political environment in each of these locations in our assessment of the credit quality of our receivables. The international customers with significant concentrations (generally deemed to be exceeding 10%) of our receivables with terms longer than one year are in the Latin America region (“LATAM”) and are primarily comprised of Mexico, Peru and Argentina. The following table summarizes our LATAM receivables:

| As of June 30, 2024
| Total |  | Current |  | Balances over 90 days past due
Receivables | $ | 59 |  |  | $ | 45 |  |  | $ | 14 |
Allowance for credit losses | (18) |  |  | (11) |  |  | (7) |
Receivables, net | $ | 41 |  |  | $ | 34 |  |  | $ | 7 |

We continuously review receivables and, as information concerning credit quality and/or overall economic environment arises, reassess our expectations of future losses and record an incremental reserve if warranted at that time. Our current allowance for credit losses represents our current expectation of credit losses; however, future expectations could change as international unrest or other macro-economic factors impact the financial stability of our customers.
The fair value of receivables is estimated by discounting expected future cash flows using current interest rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and remaining maturities. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the fair value of receivables, net, approximated the carrying value due to contractual terms of receivables generally being less than 24 months.
(6) Inventories
Inventories consisted of the following:

Finished goods |  | 66 |  |  | 64 |
Total inventories |  | $ | 186 |  |  | $ | 177 |

LNWI Term Loan B Repricing
On July 17, 2024, we amended the LNWI Credit Agreement and reduced the applicable margin on the LNWI Term Loan B. Following the amendment, the interest rate for the Term Loan B is either (i) the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate (as defined in the LNWI Credit Agreement) plus 2.25% per annum or (ii) a base rate plus 1.25% per annum.
We were in compliance with the financial covenants under all debt agreements as of June 30, 2024 (for information regarding our financial covenants of all debt agreements, see Note 15 in our 2023 10-K).
For additional information regarding the terms of our credit facilities and Senior Notes, see Note 15 in our 2023 10-K.
(11) Fair Value Measurements
The fair value of our financial assets and liabilities is determined by reference to market data and other valuation techniques as appropriate. We believe the fair value of our financial instruments, which are principally cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, receivables, other current assets, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, approximates their recorded values. Our assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are described below.
Derivative Financial Instruments
As of June 30, 2024, we held the following derivative instruments that were accounted for pursuant to ASC 815:
Interest Rate Swap Contracts
We use interest rate swap contracts as described below to manage exposure to interest rate fluctuations by reducing the uncertainty of future cash flows on a portion of our variable rate debt.
18

In April 2022, we entered into interest rate swap contracts to hedge a portion of our interest expense associated with our variable rate debt to effectively fix the interest rate that we pay. These interest rate swap contracts were designated as cash flow hedges under ASC 815. We pay interest at a weighted-average fixed rate of 2.8320% and receive interest at a variable rate equal to one-month Chicago Mercantile Exchange Term SOFR. The total notional amount of these interest rate swaps was $700 million as of June 30, 2024. These hedges mature in April 2027.
All gains and losses from these hedges are recorded in other comprehensive income (loss) until the future underlying payment transactions occur. Any realized gains or losses resulting from the hedges are recognized (together with the hedged transaction) as interest expense. We estimate the fair value of our interest rate swap contracts by discounting the future cash flows of both the fixed rate and variable rate interest payments based on market yield curves. The inputs used to measure the fair value of our interest rate swap contracts are categorized as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy as established by ASC 820.
The following table shows the gain and interest income on our interest rate swap contracts:

| Three Months Ended June 30, |  | Six Months Ended June 30,

Interest income related to interest rate swap contracts recorded in interest expense | 5 |  |  | 4 |  |  | 9 |  |  | 7 |

We do not expect to reclassify material amounts from accumulated other comprehensive loss to interest expense in the next twelve months.
The following table shows the effect of interest rate swap contracts designated as cash flow hedges on interest expense in the consolidated statements of income:

Contingent Acquisition Consideration Liabilities
In connection with our acquisitions, we have recorded certain contingent consideration liabilities (including redeemable non-controlling interest), of which the values are primarily based on reaching certain earnings-based metrics. The related liabilities were recorded at fair value on their respective acquisition dates as a part of the consideration transferred and are remeasured each reporting period (other than for redeemable non-controlling interest, which is measured based on its redemption value). The inputs used to measure the fair value of our liabilities are categorized as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.

Restricted Stock Units
A summary of the changes in RSUs outstanding under our equity-based compensation plans during the six months ended June 30, 2024 is presented below:

| Number of Restricted Stock Units |  | Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value
Unvested RSUs as of December 31, 2023 | 2.3 |  |  | $ | 55.53 |
Granted | 1.4 |  |  | $ | 99.57 |
Vested | (1.3) |  |  | $ | 72.70 |
Cancelled | (0.1) |  |  | $ | 56.12 |
Unvested RSUs as of June 30, 2024 | 2.3 |  |  | $ | 71.90 |

The weighted-average grant date fair value of RSUs granted during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 was $99.57 and $57.15, respectively. The fair value of each RSU grant is based on the market value of our common stock at the time of grant. As of June 30, 2024, we had $125 million of unrecognized stock-based compensation expense relating to
21

unvested RSUs amortized over a weighted-average period of approximately 1.3 years. The fair value at vesting date of RSUs vested during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 was $130 million and $51 million, respectively.
Share Repurchase Program
On March 1, 2022, our Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program under which the Company is authorized to repurchase, from time to time through February 25, 2025, up to an aggregate amount of $750 million of shares of our outstanding common stock. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, we repurchased approximately 1.8 million shares of common stock under these programs at an aggregate cost of $176 million (including excise tax), fully exhausting the authorized share repurchase amount under the program. On June 11, 2024, our Board of Directors approved a new share repurchase program under which the Company is authorized to repurchase, from time to time through June 12, 2027, up to an aggregate amount of $1.0 billion of shares of our outstanding common stock. Repurchases under the new share repurchase program may be effected at the discretion of the Transaction Committee of the Board of Directors through one or more open market repurchases, privately negotiated transactions, including block trades, accelerated share repurchases, issuer tender offers or other derivative contracts or instruments, “10b5-1” plan, or other financial or other arrangements, or a combination of the foregoing. The share repurchase program may be suspended or discontinued at any time. We had no repurchases under the new plan during the quarter ended June 30, 2024.
(13) Income Taxes
We consider new evidence (both positive and negative) at each reporting date that could affect our view of the future realization of deferred tax assets. We evaluate information such as historical financial results, historical taxable income, projected future taxable income, expected timing of the reversals of existing temporary differences and available prudent and feasible tax planning strategies in our analysis. Based on the available evidence, valuation allowances in certain U.S. and non-U.S. jurisdictions remain consistent as of June 30, 2024.
Our income tax expense (including discrete items) was $26 million and $44 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, and $15 million and $14 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively. For the three months ended June 30, 2024, our effective tax rate differs from the U.S. statutory rate of 21% primarily as a result of tax benefits related to equity compensation. In all periods, we recorded tax expense relative to pre-tax earnings in jurisdictions without valuation allowances.
During the second quarter of 2024, the Company was notified by the Internal Revenue Service that the Company’s U.S. federal income tax returns for tax years 2021 and 2022 will be subject to examination.
(14) Leases
Our total operating lease expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 was $6 million and $12 million, respectively, and $5 million and $11 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively. The total amount of variable and short-term lease payments was immaterial for all periods presented.
Supplemental balance sheet and cash flow information related to operating leases is as follows:

As of June 30, 2024, we did not have material additional operating leases that have not yet commenced.
(15) Litigation
We are involved in various legal proceedings, including those discussed below. We record an accrual for legal contingencies when it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount or range of the loss can be reasonably estimated (although, as discussed below, there may be an exposure to loss in excess of the accrued liability). We evaluate our accruals for legal contingencies at least quarterly and, as appropriate, establish new accruals or adjust existing accruals to reflect (1) the facts and circumstances known to us at the time, including information regarding negotiations, settlements, rulings and other relevant events and developments, (2) the advice and analyses of counsel and (3) the assumptions and judgment of management. Legal costs associated with our legal proceedings are expensed as incurred. We had accrued liabilities of $43 million and $12 million for all of our legal matters that were contingencies as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.
Substantially all of our legal contingencies are subject to significant uncertainties and, therefore, determining the likelihood of a loss and/or the measurement of any loss involves a series of complex judgments about future events. Consequently, the ultimate outcomes of our legal contingencies could result in losses in excess of amounts we have accrued. We may be unable to estimate a range of possible losses for some matters pending against us or our subsidiaries, even when the amount of damages claimed against us or our subsidiaries is stated because, among other things: (1) the claimed amount may be exaggerated or unsupported; (2) the claim may be based on a novel legal theory or involve a large number of parties; (3) there may be uncertainty as to the likelihood of a class being certified or the ultimate size of the class; (4) there may be uncertainty as to the outcome of pending appeals or motions; (5) the matter may not have progressed sufficiently through discovery or there may be significant factual or legal issues to be resolved or developed; and/or (6) there may be uncertainty as to the enforceability of legal judgments and outcomes in certain jurisdictions. Other matters have progressed sufficiently that we are able to estimate a range of possible loss. For those legal contingencies disclosed below, and those related to the previously disclosed settlement agreement entered into in February 2015 with SNAI S.p.a. (“SNAI”), as to which a loss is reasonably possible, whether in excess of a related accrued liability or where there is no accrued liability, and for which we are able to estimate a range of possible loss, the current estimated range is up to approximately $13 million in excess of the accrued liabilities (if any) related to those legal contingencies. This aggregate range represents management’s estimate of additional possible loss in excess of the accrued liabilities (if any) with respect to these matters based on currently available information, including any damages claimed by the plaintiffs, and is subject to significant judgment and a variety of assumptions and inherent uncertainties. For example, at the time of making an estimate, management may have only preliminary, incomplete, or inaccurate information about the facts underlying a claim; its assumptions about the future rulings of the court or other tribunal on significant issues, or the behavior and incentives of adverse parties, regulators, indemnitors or co‑defendants, may prove to be wrong; and the outcomes it is attempting to predict are often not amenable to the use of statistical or other quantitative analytical tools. In addition, from time to time an outcome may occur that management had not accounted for in its estimate because it had considered that outcome to be remote. Furthermore, as noted above, the aggregate range does not include any matters for which we are not able to estimate a range of possible loss. Accordingly, the estimated aggregate range of possible loss does not represent our maximum loss exposure. Any such losses could have a material adverse impact on our results of operations, cash flows or financial condition. The legal proceedings underlying the estimated range will change from time to time, and actual results may vary significantly from the current estimate.
Colombia Litigation
Our subsidiary, LNWI, owned a minority interest in Wintech de Colombia S.A., or Wintech (now liquidated), which formerly operated the Colombian national lottery under a contract with Empresa Colombiana de Recursos para la Salud, S.A. (together with its successors, “Ecosalud”), an agency of the Colombian government. The contract provided for a penalty against Wintech, LNWI and the other shareholders of Wintech of up to $5 million if certain levels of lottery sales were not achieved. In addition, LNWI delivered to Ecosalud a $4 million surety bond as a further guarantee of performance under the contract. Wintech started the instant lottery in Colombia but, due to difficulties beyond its control, including, among other factors, social and political unrest in Colombia, frequently interrupted telephone service and power outages, and competition from another lottery being operated in a province of Colombia that we believe was in violation of Wintech’s exclusive license from Ecosalud, the projected sales level was not met for the year ended June 30, 1993.

In 1993, Ecosalud issued a resolution declaring that the contract was in default. In 1994, Ecosalud issued a liquidation resolution asserting claims for compensation and damages against Wintech, LNWI and other shareholders of Wintech for, among other things, realization of the full amount of the penalty, plus interest, and the amount of the bond. LNWI filed separate actions opposing each resolution with the Tribunal Contencioso of Cundinamarca in Colombia (the “Tribunal”), which upheld both resolutions. LNWI appealed each decision to the Council of State. In May 2012, the Council of State upheld the contract default resolution, which decision was notified to us in August 2012. In October 2013, the Council of State upheld the liquidation resolution, which decision was notified to us in December 2013.
In July 1996, Ecosalud filed a lawsuit against LNWI in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Georgia asserting many of the same claims asserted in the Colombia proceedings, including breach of contract, and seeking damages. In March 1997, the District Court dismissed Ecosalud’s claims. Ecosalud appealed the decision to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit. The Court of Appeals affirmed the District Court’s decision in 1998.
In June 1999, Ecosalud filed a collection proceeding against LNWI to enforce the liquidation resolution and recover the claimed damages. In May 2013, the Tribunal denied LNWI’s merit defenses to the collection proceeding and issued an order of payment of approximately 90 billion Colombian pesos, or approximately $30 million, plus default interest (potentially accrued since 1994 at a 12% statutory interest rate). LNWI filed an appeal to the Council of State, and on December 10, 2020, the Council of State issued a ruling affirming the Tribunal’s decision. On December 16, 2020, LNWI filed a motion for clarification of the Council of State’s ruling, which was denied on April 15, 2021. On April 22, 2021, LNWI filed a motion for reconsideration relating to that decision, which the Council of State denied on February 21, 2022. On May 24, 2022, the case was transferred from the Council of State to the Tribunal for further proceedings. On August 18, 2022, LNWI filed a constitutional challenge to the Council of State’s December 10, 2020 decision with that court, which was denied on October 7, 2022. On December 7, 2022, LNWI filed an appeal with the Council of State from the denial of the constitutional challenge, which was denied on May 24, 2023. On June 28, 2023, the Colombian Constitutional Court received the record of the constitutional appeal for further consideration, and on September 26, 2023, that court selected LNWI’s constitutional appeal for further consideration. On April 25, 2024, LNWI was notified that, by means of a decision dated April 5, 2024, a three-judge panel of the Colombian Constitutional Court denied LNWI’s constitutional appeal. On April 30, 2024, LNWI filed a motion to have that panel ruling declared null and void by the full Chamber of the Colombian Constitutional Court.
LNWI believes it has various defenses, including on the merits, against Ecosalud’s claims. Although we believe these claims will not result in a material adverse effect on our consolidated results of operations, cash flows or financial position, it is not feasible to predict the final outcome, and we cannot assure that these claims will not ultimately be resolved adversely to us or result in material liability.
TCS John Huxley Matter
On March 15, 2019, TCS John Huxley America, Inc., TCS John Huxley Europe Ltd., TCS John Huxley Asia Ltd., and Taiwan Fulgent Enterprise Co., Ltd. brought a civil action in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois against L&W, Bally Technologies, Inc. and LNW Gaming, Inc., f/k/a Bally Gaming, Inc. In the complaint, the plaintiffs assert federal antitrust claims arising from the defendants’ procurement of particular U.S. and South African patents. The plaintiffs allege that the defendants used those patents to create an allegedly illegal monopoly in the market for automatic card shufflers sold to regulated casinos in the United States. On April 10, 2019, the defendants filed a motion to dismiss the plaintiffs’ complaint with prejudice. On April 25, 2019, the district court denied the defendants’ motion to dismiss without prejudice pursuant to the court’s local rules, after the plaintiffs advised that they intended to file an amended complaint. The plaintiffs filed their amended complaint on May 3, 2019, and on May 22, 2019, the defendants filed a motion to dismiss the plaintiffs’ amended complaint with prejudice. On March 20, 2020, the district court denied the defendants’ motion to dismiss the plaintiffs’ amended complaint, and defendants filed an answer to the plaintiffs’ amended complaint on June 19, 2020. On June 3, 2020, the trial court granted the defendants’ request to bifurcate proceedings in the case, with discovery to occur first into the statute of limitations and release defenses asserted by the defendants in their motion to dismiss, before proceeding into broader discovery. The trial court set a September 18, 2020, deadline for the parties to complete discovery relating to the statute of limitations and release defenses. On October 28, 2020, the court issued an order extending until January 15, 2021 the deadline for the parties to complete discovery relating to the statute of limitations defense. On February 9, 2021, the defendants filed a motion for summary judgment on their statute of limitations defense, addressing whether plaintiffs had actual knowledge of their claims prior to the start of the limitations period. The district court denied that motion for summary judgment on September 20, 2021. On January 13, 2023, the district court entered an order requiring, among other things, that the plaintiffs make a formal written settlement demand by January 20, 2023, that the defendants respond to that demand in writing by January 27, 2023, and that the parties file a status report by January 31, 2023 confirming that they have complied with the district court’s order. On January 31, 2023, the parties filed a joint status report confirming that they have complied with the district court’s order to make and respond to a formal written demand. Discovery closed on June 1, 2023. On June 30, 2023, the defendants filed a motion for summary judgment. On March 28, 2024, the court issued an order granting in part and denying in
24

part defendants’ motion for summary judgment. On April 30, 2024, the court issued an order setting the matter for a jury trial starting on May 5, 2025. Due to the complexity of the plaintiffs’ claims, and the unpredictability of the outcome of the proceedings in the district court, or any appeal therefrom, we are unable at this time to estimate a range of reasonably possible losses, or any amount within such a range, above the amount we have recorded for this matter, which is the minimum amount of reasonably possible loss.
Tonkawa Tribe Matter
On September 3, 2020, the Tonkawa Tribe of Indians of Oklahoma d/b/a Tonkawa Enterprises filed a putative class action complaint in the United States District Court for the District of Nevada against L&W, Bally Technologies, Inc. and LNW Gaming, Inc., f/k/a Bally Gaming, Inc. On October 5, 2020, the plaintiff filed a first amended complaint to add Cow Creek Band of Umpqua Tribe of Indians and the Umpqua Indian Development Corp., d/b/a Seven Feathers Casino as a plaintiff. On October 26, 2020, the plaintiffs filed a second amended complaint. In the complaint, the plaintiffs assert federal antitrust claims arising from the defendants’ procurement of particular U.S. patents. The plaintiffs allege that the defendants used those patents to create an allegedly illegal monopoly in the market for card shufflers sold or leased to regulated casinos in the United States. The plaintiffs seek to represent a putative class of all regulated United States casinos directly leasing or purchasing card shufflers from the defendants on or after April 1, 2009. The complaint seeks unspecified money damages, the award of plaintiff’s costs of suit, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expert fees, and the award of pre-judgment and post-judgment interest. On November 19, 2020, the defendants filed a motion to dismiss plaintiffs’ second amended complaint or, in the alternative, to compel arbitration of plaintiffs’ claims. On November 20, 2020, Plaintiffs filed a motion for partial summary judgment, seeking a finding that defendants are collaterally estopped from re-litigating issues litigated in the 2018 litigation versus Shuffle Tech International Corp., Aces Up Gaming, and Poydras-Talrick Holdings. On August 27, 2021, the Nevada district court entered an order transferring the lawsuit to the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois. On May 19, 2022, the Illinois district court granted defendants’ motion to compel arbitration of plaintiffs’ individual claims; stayed all proceedings in the lawsuit pending resolution of the arbitral process; and accordingly dismissed all pending motions without prejudice as moot. We are currently unable to determine the likelihood of an outcome or estimate a range of reasonably possible losses, if any. We believe that the claims in the lawsuit are without merit, and intend to vigorously defend against them.
Giuliano and Rancho’s Club Casino Matter
On September 4, 2020, Alfred T. Giuliano, as liquidation trustee for RIH Acquisition NJ, LLC d/b/a The Atlantic Club Casino Hotel filed a putative class action complaint in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois against L&W, Bally Technologies, Inc. and LNW Gaming, Inc., f/k/a Bally Gaming, Inc. In the complaint, the plaintiffs assert federal antitrust claims arising from the defendants’ procurement of particular U.S. patents. The plaintiffs allege that the defendants used those patents to create an allegedly illegal monopoly in the market for automatic card shufflers sold or leased in the United States. The plaintiffs seek to represent a putative class of all persons and entities that directly purchased or leased automatic card shufflers within the United States from the Defendants, or any predecessor, subsidiary, or affiliate thereof, at any time between April 1, 2009, and the present. The complaint seeks unspecified money damages, which the complaint asks the court to treble, the award of plaintiff’s costs of suit, including attorneys’ fees, and the award of pre-judgment and post-judgment interest. On September 8, 2020, Rancho’s Club Casino, Inc., d/b/a Magnolia House Casino filed a putative class action complaint in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois against L&W, Bally Technologies, Inc. and LNW Gaming, Inc., f/k/a Bally Gaming, Inc. In the complaint, the plaintiff asserts federal antitrust claims arising from the defendants’ procurement of particular U.S. patents. The plaintiff alleges that the defendants used those patents to create an allegedly illegal monopoly in the market for automatic card shufflers sold or leased in the United States. The plaintiff seeks to represent a putative class of all persons and entities that directly purchased or leased automatic card shufflers within the United States from the defendants, or any predecessor, subsidiary, or affiliate thereof, at any time between April 1, 2009, and the present. The complaint seeks unspecified money damages, which the complaint asks the court to treble, the award of plaintiff’s costs of suit, including attorneys’ fees, and the award of pre-judgment and post-judgment interest.
On October 29, 2020, the trial court consolidated the Giuliano and Rancho’s Club Casino matters. On October 30, 2020, the plaintiffs in the consolidated action filed a first amended consolidated complaint. On November 9, 2020, the defendants filed a motion to dismiss the plaintiffs’ first amended consolidated complaint, and also filed a motion to compel arbitration of plaintiff Alfred T. Giuliano’s individual claims. On May 19, 2022, the Illinois district court granted defendants’ motion to compel arbitration; stayed all proceedings in the lawsuit pending resolution of the arbitral process; and accordingly dismissed all pending motions without prejudice. On May 31, 2022, defendants filed a motion to lift the stay of the lawsuit for the limited purpose of amending the court’s May 19, 2022 order to confirm that plaintiff Alfred T. Giuliano must proceed to arbitration on an individual basis rather than a class-wide basis. On June 10, 2022, plaintiff Alfred T. Giuliano filed a notice of voluntary dismissal without prejudice, and the court therefore denied as moot defendants’ motion to lift the stay in an order entered on March 28, 2023. We are currently unable to determine the likelihood of an outcome or estimate a range of
25

reasonably possible losses, if any. We believe that the claims in the consolidated lawsuit are without merit, and intend to vigorously defend against them.

On April 2, 2021, Casino Queen, Inc. and Casino Queen Marquette, Inc. filed a putative class action complaint in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois against L&W, Bally Technologies, Inc. and LNW Gaming, Inc., f/k/a Bally Gaming, Inc.

Also on February 16, 2024, plaintiffs filed a motion for partial summary judgment and a motion for class certification, which are pending.

On November 9, 2020, Mohawk Gaming Enterprises LLC, d/b/a Akwesasne Mohawk Casino Resort, filed a demand for a putative class arbitration before the American Arbitration Association against L&W, Bally Technologies, Inc. and LNW Gaming, Inc., f/k/a Bally Gaming, Inc. (“Respondents”). In the complaint, the claimant asserts federal antitrust claims arising from the respondents’ procurement of particular U.S. patents. The claimant alleges that the respondents used those patents to create an allegedly illegal monopoly in the market for automatic card shufflers sold or leased in the United States. The claimant seeks to represent a putative class of all persons and entities that directly purchased or leased automatic card shufflers within the United States from the respondents, or any predecessor, subsidiary, or affiliate thereof, at any time between April 1, 2009, and the present.

Boorn Matter
On September 15, 2022, plaintiff Hannelore Boorn filed a putative class action against L&W, SciPlay Corporation, and Appchi Media Ltd. in the Fayette Circuit Court of the Commonwealth of Kentucky.

During the six months ended June 30, 2024, we repurchased approximately 1.8 million shares of common stock under these programs at an aggregate cost of $176 million (including excise tax), fully exhausting the authorized share repurchase amount under the March 2022 program. On June 11, 2024, our Board of Directors approved a new share repurchase program under which the Company is authorized to repurchase, from time to time through June 12, 2027, up to an aggregate amount of $1.0 billion in shares of our outstanding common stock. Repurchases under the new share repurchase program may be effected at the discretion of the Transaction Committee of the Board of Directors through one or more open market repurchases, privately negotiated transactions, including block trades, accelerated share repurchases, issuer tender offers or other derivative contracts or instruments, “10b5-1” plan, or other financial or other arrangements, or a combination of the foregoing. The share repurchase program may be suspended or discontinued at any time. We had no repurchases under the new plan during the quarter ended June 30, 2024.

Revenue

Consolidated Revenue by Business Segment
(in millions)
Three Months Ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 |  | Six Months Ended June 30, 2024 and 2023

Gaming revenue growth of 14% for both the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2024 was primarily driven by global Gaming machine sales growth of 32% and 31% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, coupled with continued strength in Systems and Gaming operations as well as the success of our content performance.
SciPlay revenue increased 8% and 9% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, primarily due to increased average revenue per daily active user and average monthly revenue per paying user. Average revenue per daily active user grew 12% for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, while average monthly revenue per paying user increased 15% and 16% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively.
The increase in iGaming revenue of 6% and 10% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, was driven primarily by continued momentum in the U.S. market as well as the strength of our original content.

Cost of Revenue
Total cost of revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 increased as a direct result of higher revenue as described above, driven by $17 million and $32 million, respectively, in higher cost of products revenue primarily associated with higher gaming machine sales. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, the increase in cost of services is primarily related to higher cost of services for our iGaming business segment.
SG&A
SG&A increased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 as compared to the prior year periods. The increase was driven by higher salaries and benefits, excluding stock-based compensation, of $7 million and $19 million, respectively, and higher marketing expenses primarily associated with the SciPlay segment of $7 million and $15 million, respectively.
30

R&D
R&D increased for both periods, primarily due to higher salaries and benefits in our Gaming and SciPlay segments.
D&A
D&A decreased for both periods primarily due to fully amortized intangible assets related to certain of our legacy trade names associated with our Gaming segment. Additionally, the prior year included an impairment charge of $5 million related to SciPlay restructuring of a certain foreign studio.
Restructuring and Other
The increase in restructuring and other for the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the prior year period, was primarily due to a $32 million charge related to certain legal matters, which was partially offset by lower costs related to strategic review and related transactions. Restructuring and other decreased for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the prior year period, primarily due to lower costs related to strategic review and related transactions, partially offset by the $32 million charge related to certain legal matters. The three months ended June 30, 2023 included $7 million in professional services associated with the ASX listing, and the six months ended June 30, 2023 included contingent acquisition consideration remeasurement charges of $9 million.

BUSINESS SEGMENT RESULTS (for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2023)
GAMING
Our Gaming business segment designs, develops, manufactures, markets and distributes a comprehensive portfolio of gaming content, products and services. We provide our Gaming portfolio of products and services to commercial casinos, Native American casinos, wide-area gaming operators such as LBOs, arcade and bingo operators in the U.K. and continental Europe, and government agencies and their affiliated operators.
We generate Gaming revenue from both services and product sales. Our services revenue includes revenue earned from Participation gaming machines, other leased gaming machines (including VLTs and electronic table games), supplied table products and services (including Shufflers), casino management technology solutions and systems, and other services revenues. Our product sales revenue includes the sale of new and used gaming machines, electronic table games, VLTs and
31

VGTs, casino-management technology solutions and systems, table products, proprietary table game licensing, conversion kits (including game, hardware or operating system conversions) and spare parts.
For additional information, refer to the Gaming primary business activities summary included within “Business Segment Results” under Item 7 of our 2023 10-K.
Current Year Update
The increase in Gaming revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the prior year period, was primarily driven by continued global Gaming machine sales growth of 32% and 31%, respectively, coupled with growth in Systems and Gaming operations, which benefited from a 7% increase in U.S. and Canada installed base and higher average daily revenue per unit. Our growth is driven by the continued strength and success of our content portfolio performance, driving Game sales growth in North American-adjacent and International markets, led by Australia and Asia, as well as persistent success of our COSMIC TM and KASCADA® cabinets. Our robust portfolio of hit franchises is expected to drive further growth in the remainder of 2024. While demand remains strong, we are actively monitoring any impact of inflationary pressures and macroeconomic uncertainty that may impact our operations. We are also monitoring for any potential disruptions in our supply chain, such as those due to armed conflicts or hostilities, and we increase our inventory positions when deemed necessary to mitigate any expected or unexpected delays and fulfill customer orders timely.

Gaming Operations
Gaming operations revenue growth was driven by strong game performance of hit franchises, including our premium games. Gaming operations for U.S. and Canada had a 2,016-unit increase in installed base for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, along with an increase in average daily revenue per unit of $1.82 and $1.65 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively. Average daily revenue per unit for International units increased for the three months ended June 30, 2024, and decreased slightly for the six months ended June 30, 2024. International ending installed base units decreased by 3,332 units primarily due to the expected closure of certain LBOs in the U.K., removals in Greece, and the reduction of certain low-yielding units in Latin America.
Gaming Machine Sales
Gaming machine sales revenue increased primarily due to higher sales of replacement units globally as operator capital spending remained at healthy levels, casino opening and expansion activity increased internationally and average sales price per new unit increased, mostly from a favorable product mix.

Operating Expenses and AEBITDA
Operating expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 increased by $11 million and 15 million, respectively, as compared to the corresponding prior year periods, primarily due to $16 million and $29 million, respectively, in higher costs of revenue associated with the increase in revenue as described above and $7 million and $18 million, respectively, in higher SG&A, partially offset by lower D&A of $15 million and $34 million, respectively.
AEBITDA for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 as compared to the prior year periods increased by $39 million and $66 million, respectively, which is primarily related to increased revenue, and AEBITDA as a percentage of revenue (“AEBITDA margin”) increased to 50% for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2024. These results were primarily driven by revenue growth in the period.
SCIPLAY
Our SciPlay business segment is a leading developer and publisher of digital games on mobile and web platforms. SciPlay operates primarily in the social gaming market, which is characterized by gameplay online or on mobile devices that is social, competitive and self-directed in pace and session length. SciPlay also operates in the hyper-casual space, which is characterized by simpler core loops and more repetitive gameplay than casual games. SciPlay generates a substantial portion of its revenue from in-app purchases in the form of coins, chips and cards, which players can use to play slot games, table games or bingo games. Players who install SciPlay’s social games typically receive free coins, chips or cards upon the initial launch of the game and additional free coins, chips or cards at specific time intervals. Players may exhaust the coins, chips or cards that they receive for free and may choose to purchase additional coins, chips or cards in order to extend their time of game play. Once obtained, coins, chips and cards (either free or purchased) cannot be redeemed for cash nor exchanged for anything other than game play within SciPlay’s apps. SciPlay generates additional revenue through advertising arrangements in SciPlay’s hyper-casual games, which was not material for the periods presented. Players who install SciPlay’s hyper-casual games receive free, unlimited gameplay that requires viewing of periodic in-game advertisements.
SciPlay currently offers a variety of social casino games, including JACKPOT PARTY® Casino, QUICK HIT® Slots, GOLD FISH® Casino, 88 FORTUNES® Slots, MONOPOLY Slots and HOT SHOT CASINO®. SciPlay continues to pursue its strategy of expanding into the online and mobile games market. Current casual game titles include BINGO SHOWDOWN® and BACKGAMMON LIVE as well as other titles in the hyper-casual space, including games such as CANDY CHALLENGE 3D, BOSS LIFE and DEEP CLEAN INC. 3D. SciPlay continually develops and tests various new games. SciPlay’s social casino games typically include slots-style game play and occasionally include table games-style game play, while its casual games blend solitaire-style or bingo game play with adventure game features and its hyper-casual games include many simple core loop mechanics. All of SciPlay’s games are offered and played across multiple platforms, including APPLE, GOOGLE, FACEBOOK, AMAZON and MICROSOFT. SciPlay launched a proprietary direct-to-consumer in-app purchase platform during 2023, with the goals of improving players’ experience and reducing costs of revenue given the lower payment processing fees and other related expenses for in-app purchases made through the proprietary platform, as compared to the platform fee charged by third-party platforms. Revenue generated via the proprietary direct-to-consumer platform continues to increase and represented approximately 9% of total SciPlay revenue for the first half of 2024. In addition to original game content, SciPlay’s content library includes recognizable game content across our other platforms within Gaming and iGaming. This content allows players who like playing land-based game content to enjoy some of those same titles in SciPlay’s free-to-play games.

Current Year Update
SciPlay continues to deliver strong results and elevated payer engagement. Revenue growth was 8% and 9% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, which was primarily attributable to the revenue generated by Quick Hit Slots, Jackpot Party Casino, 88 Fortunes and Gold Fish Casino. We believe that there is an opportunity for continued improvement of operating results in the second half of 2024 and beyond, as SciPlay continues to deploy strategic game updates, utilize enhanced analytics, pursue international expansion and benefit from the proprietary direct-to-consumer platform.
We have a significant portion of SciPlay personnel located in Tel Aviv, Israel. In light of current circumstances in Israel, we are actively monitoring developments and are ready to redirect resources as needed to minimize impact on SciPlay operations. We do not have servers or infrastructure that are located in Israel that host our games. While we have not yet seen an impact on our business from current events, they could negatively affect the performance of the personnel in that area and have an adverse impact on our business if these events continue and/or escalate.

nm = not meaningful. pp = percentage points. (1) Other represents $24 million and $36 million in revenue generated via our proprietary direct-to-consumer platform for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, along with advertising and other revenue, which were not material for the periods presented. (2) Mobile penetration is defined as the percentage of business to consumer SciPlay revenue generated from mobile platforms. (3) MAU = Monthly Active Users is a count of visitors to our sites during a month. An individual who plays multiple games or from multiple devices may, in certain circumstances, be counted more than once. However, we use third-party data to limit the occurrence of multiple counting. (4) DAU = Daily Active Users is a count of visitors to our sites during a day. An individual who plays multiple games or from multiple devices may, in certain circumstances, be counted more than once. However, we use third-party data to limit the occurrence of multiple counting. (5) ARPDAU = Average Revenue Per DAU is calculated by dividing revenue for a period by the DAU for the period by the number of days for the period. (6) MPU = Monthly Paying Users is the number of individual users who made an in-game purchase during a particular month. (7) AMRPPU = Average Monthly Revenue Per Paying User is calculated by dividing average monthly revenue by average MPUs for the applicable time period. (8) Payer conversion rate is calculated by dividing average MPU for the period by the average MAU for the same period.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, revenue increased as average monthly revenue per paying user increased 15% and 16%, respectively, while social casino payer engagement remained elevated.
Mobile penetration decreased by 12 and 9 percentage points for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, primarily reflecting growing revenue generated via our proprietary direct-to-consumer platform, with a majority of players continuing to use mobile platforms to play SciPlay’s games.
Average MAU and average MPU for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 decreased due to the turnover in users. ARPDAU increased as a function of higher player monetization with a slight decrease in average DAU. AMRPPU increased, with payer conversion remaining relatively constant, as SciPlay continues to improve content and features resulting in increased paying player interaction.
Payer conversion rates continue to be at high levels due to consistent payer interaction with the games as a result of SciPlay’s focus on introducing new content, features and live events in games.
Operating Expenses and AEBITDA
The increase in operating expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to prior year periods, was primarily driven by higher marketing spend of $6 million and $13 million, respectively, and higher salaries and benefit costs (including stock-based compensation) of $4 million and $8 million, respectively, related to an increase in headcount, partially offset by lower D&A of $5 million and $4 million, respectively.
AEBITDA for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 increased as compared to prior year periods by $11 million and $19 million, respectively, and AEBITDA margin increased by 3 percentage points to 34% and 2 percentage points to 32%, respectively, primarily due to revenue growth, as discussed above, including growth from our proprietary direct-to-consumer platform which generates higher margin, partially offset by the increase in operating costs resulting from increases in marketing spend and salaries and benefits.

iGAMING
Our iGaming business segment provides a comprehensive suite of digital gaming content, distribution platforms and player account management systems, as well as various other iGaming content and services. The majority of our revenue is derived from casino-style game content, including a wide variety of internally developed and branded games as well as popular third-party provider games. These games are made available to iGaming operators via content aggregation platforms, including Open Gaming System, remote gaming servers and various other platforms. We also provide our Open Platform System, a player account management system which offers a wide range of reporting and administrative functions and tools providing operators full control over all areas of digital gaming operations. Generally, we host the play of our game content which is integrated with the online casino operators’ websites.
Current Year Update
We continue to expand our customer base and capitalize on growth in the European and North American markets by leveraging our industry leading platforms, content and solutions, as well as investing in our ability to scale our own original U.S. land-based content offering. In the second quarter of 2024, we went live in Rhode Island, increasing our U.S. presence to seven states, and we are well positioned to enter additional states as their legislatures authorize online gaming.
Results of Operations

Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2024 and 2023

The increases in iGaming revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 were 6% and 10%, respectively, as compared to the prior year periods. The prior year periods benefited from $2 million in license termination fees. The momentum in the international and U.S. markets remain strong due to our original content and growth in our partner network. Wagers processed through our Open Gaming System for both current year periods increased to $22 billion and $44 billion, respectively.
Operating expenses decreased slightly for the three months ended June 30, 2024, and increased for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the prior year periods. The decrease of $4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 was due to the fair value adjustment of contingent acquisition considerations of $9 million in the three months ended June 30, 2023, partially offset by $5 million in higher costs of revenue and SG&A for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The increase for the six months ended June 30, 2024 is primarily due to $11 million in higher costs of revenue and SG&A, partially offset by lower restructuring and other costs as compared to the prior year period.
AEBITDA remained relatively flat for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the prior year periods, while AEBITDA margin decreased to 32% for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 due to continuing investments in growth initiatives and the momentum in U.S. and international markets. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, AEBITDA benefited from $2 million in license termination fees.
RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING GUIDANCE
We do not expect that any recently issued accounting guidance will have a significant effect on our consolidated financial statements.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
For a description of our policies regarding our critical accounting estimates, see “Critical Accounting Estimates” in Item 7 “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” included in our 2023 10-K.
There have been no significant changes in our critical accounting estimate policies or the application of those policies to our condensed consolidated financial statements from those presented in Item 7 “Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” included in our 2023 10-K.
LIQUIDITY, CAPITAL RESOURCES AND WORKING CAPITAL
Cash and Available Liquidity
As of June 30, 2024, our principal sources of liquidity, other than cash flows provided by operating activities, were cash and cash equivalents as well as amounts available under the LNWI Revolver.
Cash and Available Revolver Capacity

| As of
(in millions) | June 30, 2024 |  | December 31, 2023
Cash and cash equivalents | $ | 321 |  |  | $ | 425 |
Revolver capacity | 750 |  |  | 750 |
Revolver capacity drawn or committed letters of credit | (10) |  |  | (10) |
Total | $ | 1,061 |  |  | $ | 1,165 |

Total cash held by our foreign subsidiaries was $131 million and $166 million as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. We believe that substantially all cash held outside the U.S. is free from legal encumbrances or similar restrictions that would prevent it from being available to meet our global liquidity needs.
Our Gaming operations generally require significant upfront capital expenditures, and we may need to incur additional capital expenditures in order to retain or increase market share and continue our product investments. Other capital requirements for the near term primarily include debt principal and interest payments and also include purchase obligations and supply contracts, license agreement minimum guaranteed payments and lease obligations. There have been no material changes to our capital requirements disclosed in our 2023 10-K, other than those associated with our repricing of the LNWI Term Loan B, as described in Note 10.
Our ability to make payments on and to refinance our indebtedness and other obligations depends on our ability to generate cash in the future. We may, from time to time, repurchase or otherwise repay, retire or refinance our debt, through our subsidiaries or otherwise. In the event we pursue significant acquisitions or other expansion opportunities, or conduct significant repurchases of our outstanding securities, we may need to raise additional capital. If we do not have adequate liquidity to support these activities, we may be unable to obtain financing for these cash needs on favorable terms or at all. For additional information regarding our cash needs and related risks, see “Risk Factors” under Part I, Item 1A in our 2023 10-K.
On March 1, 2022, our Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program under which we are authorized to repurchase, from time to time through February 25, 2025, up to an aggregate amount of $750 million of our outstanding common stock. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, we repurchased approximately 1.8 million shares of common stock under these programs at an aggregate cost of $176 million (including excise tax), fully exhausting the authorized share repurchase amount under the program. On June 11, 2024, our Board of Directors approved a new share repurchase program under which the Company is authorized to repurchase, from time to time through June 12, 2027, up to an aggregate amount of $1.0 billion of our outstanding common stock. Repurchases under the new share repurchase program may be effected at the discretion of the Transaction Committee of the Board of Directors through one or more open market repurchases, privately negotiated transactions, including block trades, accelerated share repurchases, issuer tender offers or other derivative contracts or instruments, “10b5-1” plan, or other financial or other arrangements, or a combination of the foregoing. The share repurchase program may be suspended or discontinued at any time. We had no repurchases under the new plan during the quarter ended June 30, 2024.
On July 17, 2024, we amended the LNWI Credit Agreement and reduced the applicable margin on the LNWI Term Loan B. Following the amendment, the interest rate for the Term Loan B is either (i) the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate (as defined in the LNWI Credit Agreement) plus 2.25% per annum or (ii) a base rate plus 1.25% per annum.

Net cash provided by operating activities | $ | 312 |  |  | $ | 219 |  |  |  |  | $ | 93 |  |  |

Net cash provided by operating activities increased primarily due to a $44 million increase in earnings (drivers described above).
Changes in working capital accounts for the six months ended June 30, 2024 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2023 were positively impacted by the timing of disbursements, partially offset by $13 million in higher payments on contingent acquisition considerations.
Cash flows from investing activities
Net cash used in investing activities increased primarily due to higher capital expenditures in order to support Gaming operations growth. Capital expenditures are composed of investments in systems, equipment and other assets related to contracts, property and equipment, intangible assets and software.
Cash flows from financing activities
Net cash used in financing activities increased, as more purchases of our outstanding common stock under our share repurchase programs and increases in net redemptions of common stock under stock-based compensation plans during the current year period were partially offset by lower license payments. During the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, we purchased $175 million and $33 million, respectively, of our common stock.
Credit Agreement and Other Debt
For additional information regarding the LNWI Credit Agreement and other debt, interest rate risk and interest rate hedging instruments, see Notes 15 and 16 and Item 7A “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” in our 2023 10-K as well as Notes 10 and 11 and Item 3 below in this Form 10-Q.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of June 30, 2024, we did not have any significant off-balance sheet arrangements.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Market risk is the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices, such as interest rates, foreign exchange rates and commodity prices. The following describes our financial instruments which expose us to market risk.
39

Interest Rate Risk
As of June 30, 2024, the face value of long-term debt was $3.9 billion, including $2.2 billion of variable rate obligations that fluctuate based on SOFR. Assuming a constant outstanding balance for our variable-rate long-term debt and excluding the impact of interest rate swap contracts, a hypothetical 1% change in interest rates would result in interest expense changing by approximately $22 million. All of our interest rate sensitive financial instruments are held for purposes other than trading.
In April 2022, we entered into interest rate swap contracts to hedge a portion of our interest expense associated with our variable rate debt and effectively fix the interest rate that we pay. The objective of our interest rate swap contracts, which are designated as cash flow hedges of the future interest payments, is to eliminate the variability of cash flows attributable to the SOFR component of interest expense to be paid on a portion of our variable rate debt. These hedges mature in April 2027.
For additional information regarding our long-term debt and interest rate swap contracts, see Notes 10 and 11, respectively.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as required by Exchange Act Rule 3a-15(b) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that these disclosure controls and procedures are effective as of June 30, 2024.
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2024 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

(2) Average price paid per share is calculated on a settlement basis and excludes excise tax. As of January 1, 2023, our share repurchases in excess of issuances are subject to a 1% excise tax enacted by the Inflation Reduction Act, resulting in $1 million recorded as of June 30, 2024. Any excise tax incurred is recognized in stockholders’ equity as part of the cost basis of the shares acquired.

Item 5. Other Information
Insider Trading Arrangements and Policies
Certain of our officers or directors have made elections to participate in, and are participating in, our 401(k) plan and have made, and may from time to time make, elections to have shares withheld to cover withholding taxes, which may be designed to satisfy the affirmative defense conditions of Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act or may constitute non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangements (as defined in Item 408(c) of Regulation S-K). During the three months ended June 30, 2024, no director or officer of the Company adopted or terminated a "Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement" as such term is defined in Item 408(a) of Regulation S-K.
