Operating and Financial Review
Total revenue after amortization of royalties and games in Q3
2011 increased to $7.2 million (Q2 2011: $7.0 million). Q3 2011
included $0.9 million as a result of a reanalysis of jackpot
provisions; Q2 2011 included $0.8 million as a result of a
reduction in liabilities previously provided against revenue
following the resolution of a dispute with a significant supplier
of games.
Hosted Casino
Revenue from Hosted Casino increased to $6.5 million in Q3 2011,
including $0.9 million related to the above jackpot provisions (Q2
2011: $5.7 million, including $0.3 million related to the above
dispute resolution), reflecting a higher contribution from a key
licensee.
Branded Games
Revenue from this segment decreased to $1.4 million in Q3 2011
(Q2 2011: $2.1 million, including $0.5 million related to the above
dispute resolution). Three new branded games went live in the
quarter taking the total number of games rolled out by licensees
and generating revenues to date to 188 from 185 at the end of the
second quarter.
Poker and Other
Poker and Other revenue amounted to $0.3 million in Q3 2011 (Q2
2011: $0.2 million).
Expenses
Operating expenses decreased to $4.1 million in Q3 2011 (Q2
2011: $4.5 million).
General and administrative expenses decreased to $1.5 million in
Q3 2011 (Q2 2011: $1.6 million).
Income before tax for the quarter amounted to $1.3 million,
including $0.9 million related to the above jackpot provisions,
compared with $0.5 million in the second quarter, including $0.8
million related to the above dispute resolution.
Balance Sheet and Cash Flow
Cash and cash equivalents as at September 30, 2011 amounted to
$15.2 million (June 30, 2011: $12.0 million). The increase in cash
during Q3 2011 of $3.2 million is primarily due to net cash flows
from operating activities. The Company continues to be
debt-free.
Update on Commercial Agreements
Further to the announcement on May 12, 2011, the Company remains
in dispute with a brand licensor. In June 2011, the Company filed
suit against the brand licensor seeking judgment that any breach
was cured and the agreement remains in force. In October 2011, the
brand licensor answered the complaint, denying any cure and filed a
countersuit.
Strategic Review
On March 25, 2011, the Company announced that it had appointed
Deloitte Corporate Finance as financial advisor to assist it with a
strategic review of the Company. The strategic review is ongoing
and further announcements will be made as and when appropriate.
