Insights

Financial Analyst

Everi Holdings Inc.'s recent financial performance indicates a mixed outlook, with a revenue decrease in the fourth quarter but an overall annual revenue increase. The decline in the Games segment is concerning as it suggests potential market saturation or competitive pressures. However, the growth in the FinTech segment is promising, showing resilience and potential for expansion. The impairment charge taken this quarter is significant and suggests a reassessment of asset values, which can be indicative of underlying challenges in the business or industry shifts. The share repurchase program reflects management's confidence in the company's intrinsic value despite the lower free cash flow compared to the previous year. Investors should monitor the execution of the strategic merger with IGT's businesses for potential synergies and market expansion opportunities.

Market Research Analyst

The strategic merger between Everi and IGT's Global Gaming and PlayDigital businesses points to a consolidation trend within the gaming and FinTech industries. This merger could position Everi to leverage IGT's established market presence and technological capabilities, potentially enhancing its competitive edge. The emphasis on a diverse portfolio suggests a strategy to mitigate risks associated with market fluctuations. The long-term success of this merger will hinge on the effective integration of the two entities and the realization of anticipated synergies. Stakeholders should consider the potential for increased market share and cross-selling opportunities, but also be aware of the integration risks and costs associated with such strategic moves.

Legal Expert

The announcement of a strategic merger with IGT's gaming and digital businesses introduces complex regulatory considerations. Antitrust and regulatory approvals will be critical, as the combined entity aims to create a global leader in the industry. The process will likely involve scrutiny of competitive impacts and could influence the timeline for realizing merger benefits. The comprehensive portfolio resulting from the merger will require diligent intellectual property management and adherence to diverse regulatory standards across jurisdictions. It is imperative for investors to understand the legal landscape and timelines that could affect the merger's completion and subsequent integration.

Fourth Quarter 2023 Results Overview 

Revenues for the three-month period ended December 31, 2023 declined to $192.0 million compared to $205.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2022. Recurring revenues increased 3% to $147.9 million from $142.9 million in the prior-year period driven by growth in financial access and software recurring revenues from our FinTech segment while Games segment recurring revenues were relatively flat. Revenues from lower-margin, non-recurring sales declined to $44.1 million from $62.5 million in the prior year period as a result of both lower gaming equipment sales and lower FinTech hardware sales.

Operating income decreased to $21.5 million compared to $51.6 million in the prior-year period. Operating expenses were higher in the 2023 fourth quarter compared to the prior-year period as a result of the April 2023 acquisition of Video King, higher employee wages and benefit costs, and expenses incurred due to the consolidation of assembly facilities in Las Vegas during the fourth quarter. Additionally, the Company recorded an $11.7 million non-cash impairment charge related to the write-down of certain intangible customer relationship assets acquired in connection with the May 2022 Intuicode acquisition.  Changes in the historic horse racing system providers contract terms with one of their significant customers reduced the expected revenues to be earned by the Company in future periods which reduced the expected recoverability from these assets. Higher research and development expense and depreciation costs reflect the impact of the Video King acquisition earlier in the year and a full quarter of expense from the Venuetize acquisition in the prior year fourth quarter as well incremental development costs to support ongoing growth initiatives.

Net income was $1.9 million, or $0.02 per diluted share, compared to $27.0 million, or $0.28 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter of 2022.

Adjusted EBITDA decreased to $82.2 million from $93.4 million in the prior-year period, due to lower revenues and higher operating and research and development expenses.

Free Cash Flow was $19.8 million compared with $44.2 million in the year-ago period.

Outlook

Everi today initiated a full year outlook for 2024 in which it expects revenue growth in both the Games and FinTech segments. Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be up slightly compared to 2023, while Free Cash Flow is expected to be flat to slightly down as cash paid for capital expenditures and cash paid for taxes are expected to be up modestly. 

For our FinTech business, we expect continued growth driven by our expectation for low-single-digit industry growth and the addition of new products and services to both new and existing customers.  In our Games business, we expect to see continued pressure in game sales and declines in the installed base in the first half of the year as we continue to roll-out next family of cabinets and content and remove lower-performing gaming operations units to maximize our return from invested capital primarily in the early part of 2024. 

Other factors in our outlook to consider include:

• Consolidated Operating expenses, excluding non-cash compensation expense and any non-recurring acquisition and legal costs is expected to be between 28% - 29% of consolidated revenues.
• R&D expense is expected to remain at 8% to 8.5% of consolidated revenues.
• Capital expenditures are expected to remain flat to up slightly from the $145 million spent in 2023 as the Company plans to increase investment in our installed base by replacing older and underperforming games with units from our next generation of cabinets.
• Cash interest is expected to be consistent with the prior year.
• Free Cash Flow is expected to remain strong, but decline slightly due to the growth in capital expenditures and increasing cash taxes.

Fourth Quarter 2023 Games Segment Highlights

Games segment revenues declined to $97.1 million compared to $113.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2022, reflecting a decrease in revenues from gaming machine sales and gaming operations. The new for-sale Dynasty Sol was launched in the fourth quarter and sales of the for-sale Dynasty Vue launched in the second quarter continued to ramp. Gaming operation revenues declined modestly from the prior year period as the contribution from the acquisition of Video King was offset by declines in the installed base and DWPU as the transition to new premium cabinets and content continued.

Operating loss was $7.4 million compared to $25.2 million of operating income in the fourth quarter of 2022, reflecting lower revenues and higher operating expenses including an $11.7 million impairment charge related to certain intangible assets acquired as part of the acquisition of Intuicode as well as higher payroll and benefit expenses. Adjusted EBITDA declined to $43.7 million, from $56.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2022.

Gaming operations revenues were $72.6 million, essentially flat with a year ago.

• As anticipated, the installed base declined to 17,512 units as of December 31, 2023 from 17,975 a year ago. The premium portion of the installed base represented 49% of the installed base consistent with the prior year. Dynasty Dynamic and Player Classic Reserve were introduced at the end of the third quarter and as of December 31, 2023 there were 360 units deployed. Early performance and feedback has been positive.
• We expect units in the first half of 2024 to decline slightly as we manage our capital spending by removing certain underperforming units where we do not believe that the increased investment from new cabinets will justify the return.

Gaming equipment and systems revenues generated from the sale of gaming machines, including HHR units and other related parts and equipment, decreased to $24.5 million compared to $39.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2022. 

• The Company sold 1,043 gaming machines at an average selling price ("ASP") of $20,270 in the 2023 fourth quarter compared to 1,944 units sold at an ASP of $19,631 in the 2022 fourth quarter.
• The Company continues to transition to the new family of for-sale video cabinets with the lower profile Dynasty Vue, which was launched in the second quarter, and the larger profile Dynasty Sol, which was launched in the fourth quarter.  Early performance of several new titles including "The Mask" and "Dynamite Pop" has been strong.

Fourth Quarter 2023 Financial Technology Solutions ("FinTech") Segment Highlights

FinTech revenues for the 2023 fourth quarter increased to $94.9 million compared to $92.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2022, reflecting 6% growth in financial access services, a 25% gain in software and other revenues, and a 31% decrease in hardware sales. 

Operating income increased 9% to $28.9 million compared to $26.4 million in the prior-year period, reflecting a more favorable mix of higher margin revenue. Adjusted EBITDA was $38.5 million compared to $36.7 million in the 2022 fourth quarter. 

• Financial access services revenues, which include cashless and cash-dispensing debit and credit card transactions and check services, increased 6% versus the 2022 fourth quarter to $56.0 million, reflecting higher same-store financial funding transactions, as well as continued growth from new customer additions. Funds delivered to casino floors increased 10% to $11.9 billion on a 12%  increase in the number of completed financial transactions. While representing less than 5% of funding transactions, cashless transactions (including both digital wallet and paper gaming voucher transactions) increased 50% over the 2022 fourth quarter.
• Software and other revenues, which include Loyalty and RegTech software, kiosk maintenance services, product subscriptions, and other revenues, rose 25% to $26.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2023 compared to $21.2 million in the fourth quarter 2022. Approximately 73% and 79% of software and other revenues were of a recurring nature in the 2023 and 2022 fourth quarter periods, respectively.
• Hardware sales revenues decreased to $12.5 million compared to $18.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2022. Hardware sales often consist of large purchases where the timing can shift resulting in volatility in quarterly results.  The fourth quarter in 2022 experienced significantly higher hardware sales due to new casino openings compared to the fourth quarter in 2023 where some sales shifted to 2024.

Balance Sheet, Liquidity and Cash Flow

• As of December 31, 2023, the Company had $267.2 million of cash and cash equivalents compared with $293.4 million as of December 31, 2022.  The Net Cash Position was $46.1 million compared with $89.2 million as of December 31, 2022.
• Cash paid for interest, net was $14.4 million in the 2023 fourth quarter compared with $10.2 million in the year-ago period, primarily due to the impact of rising interest rates on the Company's variable-rate term debt and third-party commercial cash arrangements associated with certain of the Company's funding of financial access services. The interest expense on the commercial arrangements was $5.1 million for the 2023 fourth quarter on a daily average balance of $308.0 million and $20.4 million interest expense for the full year on an average daily balance of $309.6 million.
• During the 2023 fourth quarter, the Company repurchased 2.3 million shares of its common stock for $26.1 million, and as of December 31, 2023, had $80 million remaining under the existing $180 million share repurchase program approved by the Board in the 2023 second quarter.

Investor Conference Call and Webcast

Due to the merger announcement, the Company will no longer host an investor conference call to discuss its 2023 fourth quarter and full year results. The Company will host a joint call with IGT leadership at 8:00 a.m. EST (5:00 a.m. PST) today.

Non-GAAP Financial Information

To provide for better comparability between periods and a better understanding of underlying trends, this press release includes Adjusted EBITDA, Free Cash Flow, Adjusted EPS, 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, these measures 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 before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, non-cash stock compensation expense, accretion of contract rights, impairment of intangible assets, employee severance costs, non-recurring litigation costs net of settlements and insurance proceeds received, facilities consolidation costs, asset acquisition expense including the reduction of contingent consideration and other non-recurring professional fees, debt amendment costs and other one-time charges and benefits. 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 credit facility and 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 net of cash received for interest income, 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. 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 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 Adjusted EPS as earnings per diluted share before non-cash stock compensation expense, accretion of contract rights, amortization of acquired intangible assets, non-recurring litigation costs net of settlements and insurance proceeds received, facilities consolidation costs, asset acquisition expense, non-recurring professional fees, and one-time charges and benefits. We consider Adjusted EPS as a supplemental measure to our operating performance and believe it provides investors with another indicator of our operating performance. A reconciliation of the Company's earnings per diluted share per GAAP to Adjusted EPS is included in the Unaudited Reconciliation of Earnings per Diluted Share to Adjusted EPS provided at the end of this release.

We define Net Cash Position as cash and cash equivalents plus settlement receivables less settlement liabilities and 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.
