EVERI REPORTS RECORD SECOND QUARTER 2022 RESULTS

 

Everi Holdings Inc. (NYSE: EVRI) (“Everi” or the “Company”), a premier provider of land-based and digital casino gaming content and products, financial technology and player loyalty solutions, today announced results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2022. Everi also reiterated its full year outlook for Net income, Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow.

Second Quarter 2022 Financial Highlights

  • Revenues grew 14% to an all-time quarterly record $197.2 million from $172.6 million in the 2021 second quarter, reflecting a 7% increase in recurring revenues to a quarterly record $139.7 million and a 37% increase in sales of gaming machines and FinTech hardware.
  • Income before income tax increased 16% to a record $42.3 million compared to $36.6 million a year ago.
  • Net income was $32.5 million, or $0.33 per diluted share, compared to $36.2 million, or $0.36 per diluted share, in the 2021 second quarter, as the provision for income taxes increased $9.3 million in the 2022 second quarter related to the reversal of deferred tax asset valuation allowance in the 2021 fourth quarter; cash taxes paid were essentially flat at $0.1 million.
  • Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, increased to an all-time quarterly record $94.4 million compared to $92.5 million in the 2021 second quarter.
  • Free Cash Flow, a non-GAAP financial measure, rose 26% to $49.5 million from $39.2 million in the 2021 second quarter.
  • Repurchased 2.0 million shares of stock for $33.3 million in the 2022 second quarter.

Randy Taylor, Chief Executive Officer of Everi, said, “Our strong operating momentum continued in the second quarter, as we delivered all-time quarterly record revenues, income before income tax, Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow. These record financial results were driven by another consecutive quarter of record recurring revenues for both our Games and FinTech businesses despite the very challenging year-over-year comparison for these operations, as last year’s results included the significant benefit from casino reopening activities and financial stimulus payments provided to consumers.

“Our second quarter Games segment results include our highest-ever quarterly level of gaming machines sold, which increased 40% to 1,957 units; and the 13th consecutive quarterly sequential increase in our installed base of gaming operations units. Our ongoing investments in the development of differentiated cabinets and expansion of our games portfolio continues to drive increases in our installed base, strong Daily Win per Unit, and growth in our ship share of units sold. In particular, the record number of units sold in the quarter reinforces our confidence in our ability to achieve our 15% ship share target over the next several years.

“Our FinTech segment is achieving similar success, as it generated record revenues, operating income and Adjusted EBITDA for the third consecutive quarter. The record quarterly performance was driven by increased revenues from financial access services, which included more than $10 billion of funding delivered to our customers’ casino floors for the second consecutive quarter, a record number of kiosk sales, and ongoing organic growth of our Loyalty and RegTech solutions. These results demonstrate our ability to offer industry-leading, integrated solutions that help drive increases in same-store activity and cost efficiencies for our customers. With our planned introductions of additional innovative products to our Digital Neighborhood of integrated solutions, our FinTech business is positioned to deliver consistent growth.

“Our top-line growth and focus on operational excellence continues to result in strong Free Cash Flow generation, which reached $49.5 million in the 2022 second quarter and $101.1 million for the first six months of 2022. We remain focused on allocating our higher Free Cash Flow to further grow the business through prudent investments in product development, as well as with acquisitions of businesses and technologies that continue to expand the scale and scope of our product offerings and/or drive our entry into new product categories and geographical markets. As reflected in the growing contributions of our Loyalty products, our return-focused approach to acquisitions benefits our operating performance. We expect recent acquisitions, which have expanded our addressable market to include opportunities in Australia and Historical Horse Racing gaming devices, will deliver similar benefits over time. Our Free Cash Flow performance, liquidity, and strong balance sheet also enabled us to opportunistically act on our share repurchase program in the second quarter given our view that our current valuation does not fully reflect the strength of our business and our outlook for ongoing growth.”

Second Quarter 2022 Results Overview

Revenues for the three-month period ended June 30, 2022 increased 14% to $197.2 million compared to $172.6 million in the second quarter of 2021. Recurring revenues grew 7% to $139.7 million and revenues from non-recurring sales increased 37% to $57.5 million.

Operating income for the 2022 second quarter was $54.5 million compared to $54.4 million in the prior-year period, and net income was $32.5 million, or $0.33 per diluted share, compared to $36.2 million, or $0.36 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2021. The provision for income taxes increased $9.3 million in the 2022 second quarter related to the reversal of deferred tax asset valuation allowance in the 2021 fourth quarter. Operating margin declined from the prior-year period, reflecting a change in the revenue mix as a result of substantially greater growth in gaming machine and FinTech hardware sales year over year together with a lower margin on machine and hardware sales due to increased supply chain costs, higher operating costs that reflect the additions of acquisitions, and higher research and development expense that supports the Company’s focus on increased internal, new product development. Adjusted EBITDA increased to $94.4 million from $92.5 million in the prior-year period.

Free Cash Flow increased to $49.5 million from $39.2 million in the year-ago period, reflecting higher Adjusted EBITDA and lower cash interest paid, partially offset by higher capital expenditures.

2022 Second Quarter Games Segment Highlights

Games segment revenues grew 13% to a record $112.3 million compared to $99.3 million in the second quarter of 2021, primarily driven by record sales of gaming machines and ongoing growth in digital gaming revenues.

Operating income was $28.9 million compared to $30.6 million in the second quarter of 2021, reflecting higher revenues from machine sales, offset by lower margins on the machine sales due to increased supply chain costs as well as higher operating expenses, including increased costs associated with acquisitions and higher research and development expense, reflecting an acceleration in games development to support a path to a targeted future 15% ship share of gaming machines sold. Adjusted EBITDA was $58.7 million compared to $60.4 million in the second quarter of 2021. Revenues from the recent acquisitions of Intuicode Gaming and certain assets of Atlas Gaming (Australia) contributed $1.4 million in the 2022 second quarter.

Gaming operations revenues were $74.0 million compared to $73.2 million a year ago, and increased 5% on a quarterly sequential basis.

  • The installed base reached a record 17,464 units as of June 30, 2022; representing a year-over-year increase of 7%, or 1,213 units. The installed base increased by 136 units on a quarterly sequential basis.
  • The premium portion of the installed base increased by 20%, or 1,394 units, year over year and by 276 units on a quarterly sequential basis to a record 8,355 units. This was the 16th consecutive quarterly sequential increase in premium units. Growth was driven in part by continued placements of Cashnado™ units, the initial installations of Smokin’ Hot Stuff Fire and Ice™, the Company’s popular premium mechanical reel games, and its Wide-area Progressive (“WAP”) gaming machines.
  • Daily Win per Unit (“DWPU”) was $39.94 in the second quarter of 2022 compared to $45.66 in the second quarter of 2021. DWPU in the year-ago period included the significant benefit of government stimulus payments coupled with pent-up demand as COVID vaccinations increased and consumers began to return to normalized activities. DWPU improved on a quarterly sequential basis from $39.76 in the 2022 first quarter.
  • Gaming operations revenues from digital gaming rose 61% to $5.8 million in the second quarter of 2022 compared to $3.6 million in the second quarter of 2021, and increased 5% on a quarterly sequential basis. Digital revenue growth reflects the continued growth and expanded base of iGaming operator sites featuring Everi’s games along with a growing library of available slot content, as well as going live in Ontario, Canada with nine operator sites as of June 30, 2022.

Gaming equipment and systems revenues generated from the sale of gaming machines and other related parts and equipment increased 47% to $38.3 million in the second quarter of 2022 compared to $26.1 million in the second quarter of 2021.

  • The Company sold an all-time record 1,957 gaming machines at an average selling price (“ASP”) of $18,800 in the 2022 second quarter, up 555 units, or 40%, from 1,402 units sold at an ASP of $17,894 in the 2021 second quarter, which had included a larger-than-average number of unit sales for new casino openings and expansions. Unit growth reflects the Company’s estimation of an improved industry ship share driven by the popularity of an expanding game library supporting the Empire Flex™ video reel cabinet, ongoing demand for the Player Classic™ mechanical reel cabinet, and sales of the newly launched Player Classic Signature™ mechanical reel cabinet.

2022 Second Quarter Financial Technology Solutions (“FinTech”) Segment Highlights

FinTech revenues for the 2022 second quarter increased 16% to an all-time quarterly record $84.9 million compared to $73.2 million in the 2021 second quarter, reflecting a 14% increase in financial access services, a 22% increase in software and other revenues, and a 17% improvement in revenues from hardware sales. Revenues from the recent acquisition of ecash Holdings (Australia) contributed $4.2 million in the 2022 second quarter.

Operating income increased 8% to $25.7 million in the 2022 second quarter compared to $23.8 million in the prior-year period, reflecting a benefit from higher revenues partially offset by increased research and development expense primarily in support of new and enhanced Loyalty products, the Company’s digital CashClub Wallet®, and new RegTech products and software. Adjusted EBITDA rose 11% to $35.7 million compared to $32.1 million in the 2021 second quarter.

  • Financial access services revenues, which include cashless and cash-dispensing debit and credit card transactions and check services, was a quarterly record $50.9 million, a 14% increase compared with the 2021 second quarter, reflecting continued strength in financial funding transactions at casinos, as well as growth from new customer additions. The number of completed financial transactions increased 2% year over year and for the second consecutive quarter delivered more than $10 billion of funding to customers’ casino floors, representing a year-over-year funding increase of 11%. The Company’s CashClub Wallet digital technology is currently deployed across six jurisdictions at 19 casinos, with 20 additional casino properties under various stages of deployment.
  • Software and other revenues, which include Loyalty and RegTech software, product subscriptions, kiosk maintenance services, and other revenues, rose 22% to $19.0 million in the second quarter of 2022 compared to $15.6 million in the second quarter 2021. Approximately 78% and 80% of software and other revenues were of a recurring nature in the 2022 and 2021 second quarter periods, respectively.
  • Hardware sales revenues increased 17% to a record $15.0 million compared to $12.8 million in the second quarter of 2021. The record level of self-service kiosks and other cash access hardware products sold in the quarter reflect significant continued demand for the Company’s hardware and software solutions that deliver optimal performance and cost efficiencies to casino operators, including voucher redemption kiosks sold in Australia as a result of the ecash Holdings acquisition.

Balance Sheet and Liquidity

  • As of June 30, 2022, the Company had $238.1 million of cash and cash equivalents, and its Net Cash Position was $93.1 million.
  • The Company repurchased 2.0 million shares of its common stock for total consideration of $33.3 million during the quarter, and as of June 30, 2022, had $116.7 million remaining under the Board’s $150 million authorization announced on May 10, 2022.
  • In the 2022 second quarter, the Company paid $14.1 million for the initial purchase price payment and the net working capital payment related to the acquisition of Intuicode Gaming, $6.0 million of consideration related to the acquisition of certain assets of ecash Holdings and $2.0 million related to the acquisition of certain assets of XUVI.

Outlook

Reflecting the operating performance in the first half of the year and the Company’s expectations for continued operating execution over the balance of the year driven by demand for its products, Everi reiterated its full year 2022 guidance for net income of $125 million to $132 million, Adjusted EBITDA of $368 million to $378 million and Free Cash Flow of $187 million to $200 million.

The Company’s year-to-date results have not reflected, and its updated guidance does not contemplate, any additional material impact from a pandemic-related setback or other macroeconomic effect, such as recessionary or inflationary influence on consumer spending, a material supply chain disruption, or other changes in global market conditions. A summary and reconciliation of the full year 2022 financial targets are included in a supplemental table at the end of this release.

Non-GAAP Financial Information

In order to enhance investor understanding of the underlying trends in our business, our cash balance, and cash available for our operating needs, and to provide for better comparability between periods in different years, we are providing in this press release Adjusted EBITDA, Free Cash Flow, Net Cash Position and Net Cash Available, which are not measures of our financial performance or position under United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”). Accordingly, Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.  These measures should be read in conjunction with our net earnings, operating income, and cash flow data prepared in accordance with GAAP. With respect to Net Cash Position and Net Cash Available, these measures should be read in conjunction with cash and cash equivalents prepared in accordance with GAAP.

We define Adjusted EBITDA as earnings (loss) before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, loss on extinguishment of debt, non-cash stock compensation expense, accretion of contract rights, write-downs of inventory, property and equipment and intangible assets, employee severance costs and other related expenses, litigation settlement received net of legal costs, foreign exchange loss, asset acquisition expense, non-recurring professional fees, certain litigation costs, and one-time charges. We present Adjusted EBITDA, as we use this measure to manage our business and consider this measure to be supplemental to our operating performance. We also make certain compensation decisions based, in part, on our operating performance, as measured by Adjusted EBITDA; and our current credit facility and existing senior unsecured notes require us to comply with a consolidated secured leverage ratio that includes performance metrics substantially similar to Adjusted EBITDA.

We define Free Cash Flow as Adjusted EBITDA less cash paid for interest, cash paid for capital expenditures, cash paid for placement fees, and cash paid for taxes net of refunds.  We present Free Cash Flow as a measure of performance and believe it provides investors with another indicator of our operating performance. It should not be inferred that the entire Free Cash Flow amount is available for discretionary expenditures.

A reconciliation of the Company’s net income (loss) per GAAP to Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow is included in the Unaudited Reconciliation of Selected Financial GAAP to Non-GAAP Measures provided at the end of this release. Additionally, a reconciliation of each segment’s operating income to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA is also included. On a segment level, operating income per GAAP, rather than net earnings per GAAP, is reconciled to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as the Company does not report net earnings by segment. Management believes that this presentation is meaningful to investors in evaluating the performance of the Company’s segments.

We define (i) Net Cash Position as cash and cash equivalents plus settlement receivables less settlement liabilities and (ii) Net Cash Available as Net Cash Position plus undrawn amounts available under our revolving credit facility. We present Net Cash Position because our cash position, as measured by cash and cash equivalents, depends upon changes in settlement receivables and the timing of payments related to settlement liabilities. As such, our cash and cash equivalents can change substantially based upon the timing of our receipt of payments for settlement receivables and payments we make to customers for our settlement liabilities.  We present Net Cash Available as management monitors this amount in connection with its forecasting of cash flows and future cash requirements.

A reconciliation of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents per GAAP to Net Cash Position and Net Cash Available is included in the Unaudited Reconciliation of Cash and Cash Equivalents to Net Cash Position and Net Cash Available provided at the end of this release.
