Everi Holdings Inc. (NYSE: EVRI) (“Everi” or the “Company”), a premier provider of gaming products, financial technology and player loyalty solutions to the gaming industry, today reported financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2020.

First Quarter 2020 Highlights

  • Results impacted by the March casino closures due to the COVID-19 pandemic
  • Company took swift action to increase liquidity and reduce cash outflows
  • Revenue was $113.3 million compared to $123.8 million a year ago
  • Net loss was $13.5 million, or a loss of $(0.16) per diluted share, inclusive of a $7.4 million pre-tax loss on extinguishment of debt, compared to net income of $5.9 million, or $0.08 per diluted share, in the prior year
  • Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, was $52.3 million compared to $61.3 million a year ago
  • Free Cash Flow, a non-GAAP financial measure, was $18.4 million compared to $21.2 million in the prior year

Michael Rumbolz, Chief Executive Officer of Everi, said, “The significant improvement in our operating metrics in the first two months of 2020, including revenue, earnings and cash flow, demonstrates the strength in our business prior to the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic. Our performance during that time, which included a 21% year-over-year increase in the daily win per unit of our installed base and a 17% year-over-year increase in the total number of cash access transactions in our FinTech business for January and February, offers clear evidence of our operating momentum and contributed to the margin improvement we experienced. Since the onset of the pandemic and the resulting closure of our customers’ casinos in mid-March, our attention has been on addressing the impact on our employees and their families, our customers and our Company.  We acted aggressively to preserve cash and improve our liquidity position to allow the Company to achieve our long-term goals as our customers’ operations begin to reopen. These actions included dramatically reducing our near-term cash burn rate, accessing the capital markets in April for an incremental $125 million term loan and amending certain financial covenants of our existing credit agreement.

“As a result of these early actions, we believe Everi has the foundation and financial flexibility to both withstand this current disruption and further our product innovation as the industry and broader economy recover from the pandemic impact. As casinos have now begun to reopen across the country, we are working to support our customers and have started a phased approach to bring our employees back to work. We believe we have unique high-value FinTech and Games solutions that will help our customers address the new operating environment as they begin to reopen. We continued to provide in-demand services to customers during their property closures — primarily related to our player loyalty and cash access solutions — which are experiencing increased interest. These solutions, together with our player-popular gaming content, help address casino operators’ near-term needs as they reopen and will help us regain the revenue, earnings and cash flow momentum we consistently demonstrated prior to the COVID-19 outbreak.”

First Quarter 2020 Results Overview

The operating results for the three-month period ended March 31, 2020, presented below reflect the impact of casino closures in March as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, which resulted in revenues declining to essentially zero following these closures. The Company acted swiftly to reduce costs by furloughing approximately 80% of its employees, instituting pay cuts for its remaining employees (including the CEO and Board of Directors electing to reduce their salary and director fees to zero), eliminating discretionary and non-critical costs, and cancelling or delaying substantially all near-term capital expenditures. These cost reductions did not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations or financial position until the beginning of the second quarter.

While revenues increased substantially in the first two months of the first quarter of 2020 compared to the comparable two-month year-ago period, revenues for the full-quarter period decreased 8% to $113.3 million, from $123.8 million in the first quarter of 2019.Games and FinTech segment revenues were $57.3 million and $56.0 million, respectively, for the first quarter of 2020.  

Operating income declined to $10.4 million for the first quarter of 2020 compared to $25.9 million in the prior-year period. Net loss was $13.5 million, or a loss of $(0.16) per diluted share, which included the impact of a $7.4 million pre-tax loss on the extinguishment of debt related to the early partial redemption and repurchase of a portion of the Company’s senior unsecured notes in January and March 2020, compared with net income of $5.9 million, or earnings of $0.08 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2019.

Adjusted EBITDA for the first quarter of 2020 was $52.3 million compared to $61.3 million in the first quarter of 2019. Games and FinTech segment Adjusted EBITDA were $28.5 million and $23.8 million, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared with Adjusted EBITDA of $33.1 million and $28.2 million, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2019.

2020 First Quarter Games Segment Highlights

Games segment revenues were $57.3 million compared to $67.5 million in the first quarter of 2019.

Revenues from gaming operations increased to $45.7 million from $44.3 million in the prior-year period. The year-over-year improvement primarily reflects a 1,207-unit year-over-year increase in the installed base at period end, as well as a 21% year-over-year improvement in the estimated daily win per unit (“DWPU”) for the first two months of the quarter, offset by a year-over-year decline in the DWPU in March.

  • DWPU was $30.13 in the first quarter of 2020 compared to $31.76 in the prior-year period. The 21% year-over-year increase in January and February partially reflects improvements in overall unit performance following the Company’s investments in design and development of new games and cabinets, capital investments to refresh and upgrade a significant portion of the installed base over the last several years and growth in premium unit placements. This two-month improvement was offset by a decline in March reflecting the closure of casinos due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
  • The installed base at March 31, 2020 increased by 1,207 units year over year to a record quarter-end level of 14,851 units and grew by 140 units on a quarterly sequential basis, primarily reflecting the continued expansion of premium units within the installed base. The installed base growth in the quarter includes the impact from the net removal of 172 Class II units as a result of a customer converting their casino from leased Class II gaming machines to owned Class III gaming machines.
  • The premium portion of the installed base rose by 2,711 units year over year to 5,715 units, which was 555 units higher on a quarterly sequential basis. Premium units now represent 38% of the installed base compared with 22% at March 31, 2019. Wide-area progressive (“WAP”) units, a subcomponent of premium units, grew by 242 units year over year and by 41 units on a quarterly sequential basis to 965 units at March 31, 2020.
  • Interactive revenues were $1.1 million compared to $1.0 million a year ago.
  • Revenues from the New York Lottery business were $4.8 million compared to $4.7 million in the prior-year period, partially reflecting the higher rate earned under the new 10-year agreement.

Revenues generated from the sale of gaming units and other related parts and equipment totaled $11.6 million in the first quarter of 2020 compared to revenues of $23.1 million in the prior-year period.

  • The Company sold 616 units in the first quarter of 2020 compared with 1,259 units in the first quarter of 2019. 
  • The average selling price (“ASP”) was $17,526 compared with $17,361 in the prior-year period.

2020 First Quarter Financial Technology Solutions Segment Highlights

FinTech revenues were $56.0 million in the first quarter of 2020 compared to $56.3 million in the prior-year period. Revenue from player loyalty and marketing operations acquired in March 2019 and December 2019 contributed $6.5 million and $0.5 million in the first quarter of 2020 and 2019, respectively.

  • Revenues from cash access services, including ATM, cash advance and check services, were $37.0 million compared with $40.8 million in the first quarter of 2019. Revenues in January and February were driven by a 17% increase in the number of cash access transactions and a 19% increase in the total value of transactions processed, offset by a decline in March due to the closure of casinos. The growth in January and February reflected increases in the number and value of transactions processed on a same-store basis, new customer wins from competitive bid processes, and new casino openings and expansions compared with the year-ago period.
  • Equipment sales revenues were $6.4 million in the first quarter of 2020 compared to $7.0 million in the first quarter of 2019.  Sales of player loyalty and marketing kiosks contributed $1.4 million in the first quarter of 2020.
  • Revenues from information services and other, which includes kiosk maintenance, player loyalty and compliance software sales and support, CentralCredit™ service, and other revenues, were $12.7 million compared to $8.5 million in the first quarter of 2019. The increase primarily reflects $5.1 million of software sales and recurring software license support for the player loyalty and marketing business compared with revenue of $0.5 million in the year-ago period.

Balance Sheet and Liquidity

  • At March 31, 2020, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $49.9 million. The Net Cash Position, a non-GAAP measure, which nets settlement liabilities and settlement receivables from cash and cash equivalents, was $40.4 million.
  • The Company amended its Existing Credit Agreement (the “Amended Term Loan”) in April 2020 to provide for changes to certain covenant provisions, including, but not limited to: eliminating the financial maintenance covenant related to senior secured leverage for each of the remaining quarters in 2020; modifying the compliance threshold in each of the quarters thereafter; and making changes that limit the Company’s ability to make certain restricted payments and designate unrestricted subsidiaries. 
  • To further supplement its liquidity position, in April 2020, the Company successfully completed a new First Lien Term Loan (the “Incremental Term Loan”) in the amount of $125 million. The Incremental Term Loan has a maturity concurrent with the May 2024 maturity date under the existing Senior Secured Credit Facility and an interest rate of LIBOR plus 1050 basis points with a 1% LIBOR floor. After fees, discounts and expenses associated with the Incremental Term Loan and the Amended Term Loan transactions, the Company received approximately $118 million in net proceeds.
  • Pro forma for the new borrowing of the Incremental Term Loan, the Company would have had $1.18 billion in principal outstanding debt at March 31, 2020.

2020 Outlook

As previously disclosed, due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the ongoing uncertainty regarding its magnitude and duration, Everi has withdrawn the 2020 financial outlook it provided on March 2, 2020.

“As casinos across the country begin to reopen and return to normalized operations over time, we believe our product development innovation initiatives together with our consistency in operational execution will drive the long-term enhancement of shareholder value,” said Rumbolz.

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, and Total Net Debt and Total Net Debt Leverage Ratio, 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, basic and diluted earnings per share, 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.  Total Net Debt and Total Net Debt Leverage Ratio should be read in conjunction with principal face value of debt outstanding and cash and cash equivalents.

We define Adjusted EBITDA as earnings before interest, loss on extinguishment of debt, taxes, depreciation and amortization, non-cash stock compensation expense, accretion of contract rights, the write-down of assets, certain purchase accounting adjustments, other non-recurring professional service fees, and the litigation accrual. 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 (loss) income per GAAP to Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow is included in the Unaudited Reconciliation of Net (Loss) Income to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA and to Free Cash Flow 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 to illustrate the impact on cash and cash equivalents of the timing of our receipt of payments for settlement receivables and the timing of our payments to customers for settlement liabilities. We present Net Cash Available as management monitors this amount in connection with its forecasting of cash flows and related requirements, both on a short-term and long-term basis.

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.

We define Total Net Debt as total principal face value of debt outstanding, the most directly comparable GAAP measure, less cash and cash equivalents or $50 million, whichever is smaller. Total Net Debt Leverage Ratio, as used herein, represents Total Net Debt divided by Adjusted EBITDA for the trailing twelve-month period. We present Total Net Debt and Total Net Debt Leverage Ratio as management monitors these items in evaluating our overall liquidity, financial flexibility and leverage, as well as our financial position relative to our credit agreements.  Management believes that investors find these useful in evaluating the Company’s overall liquidity.
