LAS VEGAS, March 10, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- 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, announced today an agreement between the Company and the U.S. Army whereby Everi will enter the Army's Partnership for Youth Success ("PaYS") Program.

The PaYS Program is a strategic partnership between the U.S. Army and a cross section of corporations, companies, and public sector agencies. PaYS partners, such as Everi, guarantee soldiers an interview and possible employment after the Army. This unique program is part of the Army's effort to partner with America's business community and provides America's youth with an opportunity to serve their country while they prepare for their future.

"Everi is proud to celebrate this new initiative with the U.S. Army. It allows us to identify and connect with a talented pool of individuals with discipline, focus, and a strong work ethic cultivated while in service," said Randy Taylor, Everi President and COO. "As a company that has a strong focus in the technology industry, with job availability across our Games and FinTech business segments, we are eager to engage with veterans who possess a variety of skillsets. This is a win-win engagement for us both; we couldn't be more proud to work with the U.S. Army and those who have served our country." 

Participation in PaYS allows partners, such as Everi, the opportunity to mentor soldiers and newly commissioned officers as they transition to private employment. The U.S. Army, as compared to its sister services, has a significantly larger recruiting mission for both active duty, Army Reserve and Army National Guard, on an annual basis. Therefore, the Army uses many recruiting incentives, including PaYS, in order to man the force.
