Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
 
1.    Description of Business

We operate and provide an integrated portfolio of innovative gaming technology products and services, including: lottery management services, online and instant lottery systems, gaming systems, instant ticket printing, electronic gaming machines, sports betting, digital gaming, and digital lottery.

2.    Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Preparation

The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and notes of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information. Accordingly, these interim financial statements do not include all of the information and note disclosures required by GAAP for complete financial statements, but reflect all normal recurring adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the interim period results. The year-end condensed balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP. These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our annual report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2022 filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on February 28, 2023 (the “2022 Form 20-F”).

Our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are stated in millions of United States (“U.S.”) dollars (except share and per share data) unless otherwise indicated, and are computed based on the amounts in thousands. Certain amounts in columns and rows within tables may not foot due to rounding. Percentages and earnings per share amounts presented are calculated from the underlying unrounded amounts.

Use of Estimates
 
The preparation of our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements requires us to make estimates, judgments, and assumptions which affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, equity, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent liabilities. We evaluate our estimates, judgments, and methodologies on an ongoing basis. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets, liabilities, and equity, and the amount of revenues and expenses. Accordingly, actual results and outcomes could differ from those estimates.

Significant Accounting Policies

There have been no material changes to our significant accounting policies described in Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, in our 2022 Form 20-F.

Accounting Pronouncements

The Company closely monitors all Accounting Standard Updates (ASUs) issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board and other authoritative guidance. ASUs adopted in 2023 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements, and ASUs to be adopted in future periods are being evaluated and at this point are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

3.    Revenue Recognition

Contract Balances
 
Contract assets reflect revenue recognized in advance of invoicing our customer. The amount of contract assets, which is included within Other current assets and Other non-current assets in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, was $141 million and $150 million at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

Contract liabilities relate to payments received in advance of revenue recognition and include estimated future cash payments to our customers related to contractual obligations such as service level agreements, penalties, and rebates. The amount of contract liabilities, which is included within Other current liabilities and Other non-current liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, was $150 million and $139 million at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

The amount of revenue recognized in the nine months ended September 30, 2023 that was included in the opening contract liabilities was $48 million.

Transaction Price Allocated to Remaining Performance Obligations

At September 30, 2023, the transaction price allocated to unsatisfied performance obligations for contracts expected to be greater than one year, or performance obligations for which we do not have a right to consideration from the customer in the amount that corresponds to the value to the customer for our performance completed to date, variable consideration which is not accounted for in accordance with the sales-based or usage-based royalties guidance, or contracts which are not wholly unperformed, is approximately $1.1 billion. Of this amount, we expect to recognize as revenue approximately 29% within the next 12 months, approximately 27% between 13 and 36 months, approximately 17% between 37 and 60 months, and the remaining balance through September 30, 2034.

4.    Leases

We have various arrangements for lottery and gaming equipment under which we are the lessor.

Our lease arrangements typically have lease terms ranging from one month to 4 years. These leases generally meet the criteria for operating lease classification, as the lease payments are typically variable based on a percentage of sales, a percentage of amounts wagered, net win, or a daily fee per active gaming terminal. Our leases generally do not contain variable payments that are dependent on an index or rate (such as the Consumer Price Index or a market interest rate). We provide lessees with the option to extend the lease, which is considered when evaluating lease classification. Lease income from operating leases is included within service revenue in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Operating lease income was approximately 8% and 6% of total revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Operating lease income was approximately 8% and 6% of total revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Our sales-type lease arrangements typically have lease terms ranging from one year to 10 years. We provide lessees with the option to extend the lease, which is considered when evaluating lease classification. Lease income from sales-type leases is included within product sales in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Total sales-type lease income was a nominal amount of total revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023. Total sales-type lease income was approximately 1% of total revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022. Sales-type lease receivables are included within customer financing receivables, net, which are a component of other current assets and other non-current assets within the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Additional information on customer financing receivables is included in Note 5 – Receivables.

5.    Receivables

Trade and Other Receivables, net

Trade and other receivables are recorded at amortized cost, net of allowance for credit losses, and represent a contractual right to receive money on demand or on fixed or determinable dates that are typically short-term with payment due in 90 days or less.

We enter into various factoring agreements with third-party financial institutions to sell certain of our trade receivables. We factored trade receivables of $280 million and $266 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and year ended December 31, 2022, respectively, under these factoring arrangements, which reduced trade receivables. The cash received from these arrangements is reflected as net cash provided by operating activities in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. In certain of these factoring arrangements, for ease of administration, we will collect customer payments related to the factored gross receivables, including our trade receivables, which we then remit to the financial institutions. At September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we had $62 million and $126 million, respectively, that was collected on behalf of the financial institutions and recorded as other current liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The net cash flows relating to these collections are reported as financing activities in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

Customer Financing Receivables, net

Customers' payment terms for customer financing receivables are confirmed with a written financing contract, lease contract, or promissory note and a security agreement is typically signed by the parties granting the Company a security interest in the related products sold or leased. Customer financing interest income is recognized based on market rates prevailing at issuance.

Customer financing receivables are recorded at amortized cost, net of any allowance for credit losses, and are classified in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as follows:

The Company’s customer financing receivable portfolio is composed of customers primarily within the Global Gaming segment. We internally assess the credit quality of customer financing receivables using a number of factors, including, but not limited to, credit scores obtained from external providers, trade references, bank references, and historical experience. Risk profiles differ based on customer location and are pooled as: (i) North America; (ii) Latin America and the Caribbean (“LAC”); and (iii) Europe, Middle East and Africa and Asia Pacific (“EMEA & APAC”).

The customer financing receivables at amortized cost by year of origination and the geography credit quality indicator at September 30, 2023 are as follows:

On October 27, 2023, the Parent exercised its right to redeem in full the remaining €112 million of the 3.500% Senior Secured Euro Notes due July 2024 on November 7, 2023 for a redemption price of 100% of the principal amount and a make-whole call premium consistent with the terms of the indenture governing such notes, together with accrued and unpaid interest.

On March 16, 2023, the Parent redeemed €188 million ($202 million) of the 3.500% Senior Secured Euro Notes due July 2024 (the “3.500% Notes”) for total consideration, excluding interest, of €188 million. Also on March 16, 2023, the Parent redeemed $200 million of the 6.500% Senior Secured U.S. Dollar Notes due February 2025 (the “6.500% Notes”) for total consideration, excluding interest, of $203 million. The Company recorded a $1 million loss on extinguishment of debt in connection with the redemption of the 3.500% Notes and a $3 million loss on extinguishment of debt in connection with the redemption of the 6.500% Notes, which are classified in other non-operating expense (income), net in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

Fair Value of Debt

Debt is categorized within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. Senior Secured Notes are valued using quoted market prices or dealer quotes for the identical financial instrument when traded as an asset in markets that are not active. All other debt is valued using current interest rates, excluding the effect of debt issuance costs and any short-term borrowings.

Legal Proceedings

From time to time, the Parent and/or one or more of its subsidiaries are party to legal, regulatory, or administrative proceedings regarding, among other matters, claims by and against us, and injunctions by third parties arising out of the ordinary course of business or its other business activities. Licenses are also subject to legal challenges by competitors seeking to annul awards made to the Company. The Parent and/or one or more of its subsidiaries are also, from time to time, subjects of, or parties to, ethics and compliance inquiries and investigations related to the Company’s ongoing operations.

At September 30, 2023, outstanding liabilities for all legal proceedings, including those discussed in detail below, were $14 million.

With respect to legal proceedings where we have determined that an incremental loss is reasonably possible but we are unable to determine an estimate of that reasonably possible loss in excess of amounts already accrued, no additional amounts have been accrued, given the uncertainties of litigation and the inherent difficulty of predicting the outcome of legal proceedings.

Adrienne Benson and Mary Simonson, individually and on behalf of all others similarly situated v. Double Down Interactive LLC, et al. (the “DDI / Benson Matter provision”)

On June 1, 2023, the Court granted the Motion for Final Approval of Settlement and dismissed the case. The Company paid the $270 million agreed upon settlement amount (of which $50 million was placed in escrow in November 2022) on June 13, 2023.

Texas Fun 5’s Instant Ticket Game

IGT Global Solutions Corporation (formerly GTECH Corporation) is party to four lawsuits in Texas state court arising out of the Fun 5’s instant ticket game sold by the Texas Lottery Commission (“TLC”) from September 14, 2014 to October 21, 2014. Plaintiffs allege each ticket’s instruction for Game 5 provided a 5x win (five times the prize box amount) any time the “Money Bag” symbol was revealed in the “5X BOX”. However, TLC awarded a 5x win only when (1) the “Money Bag” symbol was revealed and (2) three symbols in a pattern were revealed.

(a)Steele, James et al. v. GTECH Corp., filed on December 9, 2014 in Travis County (No. D1GN145114). Through intervenor actions, over 1,200 plaintiffs claim damages in excess of $600 million, as alleged via discovery. GTECH Corporation’s plea to the jurisdiction for dismissal based on sovereign immunity was denied. GTECH Corporation appealed. The appellate court ordered that Plaintiffs’ sole remaining claim should be reconsidered. On April 27, 2018, this and a related matter were appealed to the Texas Supreme Court, which heard arguments on December 3, 2019. On June 12, 2020, the Texas Supreme Court ruled that Plaintiffs could proceed with their fraud allegations in the lower court; all other claims were dismissed. On March 26, 2021, October 29, 2021, and February 3, 2022 (two motions), GTECH Corporation filed motions for summary judgment. One such motion was denied on February 25, 2022, while the other three remain pending. In April 2023, pursuant to court ordered mediation, the Company advanced confidential settlement negotiations regarding this matter, and a tentative settlement has been reached subject to certain conditions to be satisfied by Plaintiff’s counsel. We anticipate settling on a mutually confidential basis with all, or a significant majority of, plaintiffs for an amount which is not material to the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows and is expected to be paid with cash on hand. The Court granted the Motion to Appoint Masters in Chancery on July 13, 2023 to oversee and assist the parties with the potential settlement process. Given the large number of plaintiffs, some plaintiffs may continue to pursue their case and perhaps proceed to trial on their claims.
(b)Guerra, Esmeralda v. GTECH Corp. et al., filed on June 10, 2016 in Hidalgo County (No. C277716B). Plaintiff claims damages in excess of $0.5 million. Court has scheduled a new trial date for February 5, 2024, with parties ordered to mediation within 30 days of the trial commencing.
(c)Wiggins, Mario & Kimberly v. IGT Global Solutions Corp., filed on September 7, 2016 in Travis County (No. D1GN16004344). Plaintiffs claims damages in excess of $1 million.
(d)Campos, Osvaldo Guadalupe et al. v. GTECH Corp., filed on October 20, 2016 in Travis County (No. D1GN16005300). Plaintiffs claim damages in excess of $1 million.

We dispute the claims made in each of these cases and continue to defend against these lawsuits.

The Company will continue to monitor these matters and may adjust its disclosure and accrual in accordance with its Process for Disclosure and Recording of Liabilities Related to Legal Proceedings as described in Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, in our 2022 Form 20-F.

The effective income tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 of 34.8% and 46.0% differed from the U.K. statutory rate of 23.5% primarily due to foreign rate differential, valuation allowance related to our business interest expense limitation carryforward, losses with no tax benefit, the impact of the international provisions of the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the “Tax Act”) and settlement of the Italy tax audit.

The effective income tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 of 6.7% and 14.3% differed from the U.K. statutory rate of 19.0% primarily due to the low tax cost on the sale of our Italian commercial services business, foreign rate differential, valuation allowance related to our business interest expense limitation carryforward, and the impact of the international provisions of the Tax Act.

At September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we had reserves for uncertain tax positions of $14 million and $27 million, respectively.

At September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, interest and penalties were accrued for uncertain tax positions of $27 million and $25 million, respectively.

Since February 2020, the Company’s Italian corporate income tax returns for the calendar years ended December 31, 2015 through December 31, 2019 were under examination. In October 2020, the Italian Tax Authorities issued a final audit report for calendar year 2015. The Company filed a defense memorandum with the Italian Tax Authorities in May 2021 rejecting all findings. In December 2021, the Company received a tax assessment notice for €15 million relating to calendar year 2015. The Company filed an appeal with the Italian Tax Court in May 2022 relating to the 2015 tax assessment. On March 21, 2023, the Company received a tax assessment notice for €27 million relating to calendar year 2016. On September 7, 2023, the Company signed a Settlement Agreement with the Italian Tax Authorities pursuant to which the Company agreed to settle the 2015 and 2016 tax assessments for €10 million. Additionally, the Company agreed to the settle the 2015 and 2016 audit findings that were relevant to tax years 2017-2022 for €13 million. The total impact, net of amounts previously reserved, was $14 million.

12.    Shareholders' Equity

Dividends

In each of the first three quarters of 2023, the Board of Directors of the Parent (the “Board”) declared and paid a quarterly cash dividend of $0.20 per share.

On October 26, 2023, the Board declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.20 per share. The dividend, of approximately $40 million in the aggregate, is payable on December 13, 2023, to shareholders of record at the close of business on November 29, 2023. The ex-dividend date is November 28, 2023. Future dividends are subject to Board approval.

Business Overview
The Company is a global leader in gaming that delivers entertaining and responsible gaming experiences for players across all channels and regulated segments, from Lotteries and Gaming Machines to Digital Gaming and Sports Betting. Leveraging a wealth of compelling content, substantial investment in innovation, player insights, operational expertise, and leading-edge technology, the Company’s solutions deliver gaming experiences that responsibly engage players and drive growth. The Company has a well-established local presence and relationships with governments and regulators around the world, and creates value by adhering to the highest standards of service, integrity, and responsibility.

We manage and report our operating results through three business segments: Global Lottery, Global Gaming, and PlayDigital, along with a corporate support function. The Company’s operations for the periods presented herein are discussed accordingly.

Key Factors Affecting Operations and Financial Condition
The Company’s worldwide operations can be affected by industrial, economic, and political factors on both a regional and global level. The ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine, the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, Argentina’s economic and financial crisis, the possibility of temporary government shutdowns in the U.S., the tightening of monetary policy by central banks and other macroeconomic factors have caused disruptions and uncertainty in the global economy, including rising interest rates, increased inflationary pressures, foreign exchange rate fluctuations, potential cybersecurity risks, and exacerbated supply chain challenges. However, these events did not have a material impact on our supply chain or our results of operations during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023. The extent to which our business, or the business of our suppliers or manufacturers, will be impacted in the future is unknown. We will continue to monitor the effects of these events on our business and our results of operations.

On June 8, 2023, the Company announced its Board of Directors is evaluating potential strategic alternatives for the Global Gaming and PlayDigital segments with the goal of unlocking the full value of IGT's portfolio. IGT's Board of Directors is considering a broad range of potential alternatives, including but not limited to a sale, merger or spin-off, as well as retaining and further investing in the Global Gaming and PlayDigital segments. To support the Board of Directors in their assessment, the Company has retained financial advisors, legal counsel and consultants. No decision has been made regarding any alternatives, there is no timeline for the review and there can be no assurance that the exploration of strategic alternatives will result in any transaction. Currently, the extent to which our business could ultimately be impacted, including the extent of fees to be incurred, is unknown.

Critical Accounting Estimates
The Company’s consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with GAAP which require the use of estimates, judgments, and assumptions that affect the carrying amount of assets and liabilities and the amounts of income and expenses recognized. The estimates and underlying assumptions are based on information available at the date that the financial statements are prepared, on historical experience, judgments, and assumptions considered to be reasonable and realistic. There have been no material changes to the critical accounting estimates previously disclosed in the Company’s 2022 Form 20-F.
 
The areas that require greater subjectivity of management in making estimates and judgments and where a change in such underlying assumptions could have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements are fully described in “Item 1. Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)—Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” included herein.

Total revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2023 increased $5 million to $1,065 million from $1,060 million for the prior corresponding period primarily driven by consistent player demand and game and product performance as reflected by higher key performance indicators.

Product sales growth is primarily attributable to our Global Gaming segment which experienced increases in machine units sold and increased gaming system and software sales from the prior corresponding period. Service revenue increased primarily driven by growth in our install base units in our Global Gaming segment from the prior corresponding period. Global Lottery increases, principally due to instant ticket and draw-game same-store sales growth in Italy, and multi-jurisdiction jackpot same-store sales growth in the U.S., were fully offset by the disposal in September 2022 of our Italian Commercial Services business which contributed $56 million in the prior corresponding period. Excluding the contribution from the Italian Commercial Services business, total revenue increased 6% from the prior corresponding period.

Cost of services408 49 415 50 (7)(2)

Cost of services for the three months ended September 30, 2023 decreased $7 million, or 2%, from the prior corresponding period primarily attributable to our Global Lottery segment experiencing a $34 million decrease in point of sale (“POS”) fees due to the disposal of the Italian commercial services business, partially offset by a $9 million increase in POS consumables used in providing instant and draw-based game sales and increased taxes, bank service fees, and recognition of previously capitalized software costs. Within our Global Gaming segment, depreciation and amortization expense increased $11 million due primarily to amortization expense related to a multi-year license agreement of intellectual property entered into in December 2022, partially offset by a $7 million reduction in usage-based royalties. In the aggregate, payroll & benefit expenses increased by $5 million as a result of increased headcount. As a percentage of service revenue, cost of services decreased by approximately 100 basis points primarily due to our Global Lottery and PlayDigital segments experiencing improved operating leverage.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $9 million, or 4%, from the prior corresponding period. This increase was primarily attributable to an $18 million increase in costs for outside legal and technical consultants in aggregate, principally associated with the ongoing strategic assessment, an $8 million increase in payroll & benefit expenses primarily due to increased head count, partially offset by lower expected credit loss reserves, depreciation and amortization, other personnel costs and incentives, and insurance & taxes.

Research and development for the three months ended September 30, 2023 decreased $12 million, or 18%, from the prior corresponding period, primarily due to process improvements resulting in higher capitalization of software development activities within Global Gaming and Global Lottery which offset higher payroll and benefit costs.

Total non-operating expenses (income)50 (103)(10)154 149 

Interest expense, net remained relatively flat compared to the prior corresponding period primarily due to the Company maintaining a lower average balance in its Senior Secured Notes, partially as a result of the notes redemptions in 2023 described in “Item 1. Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)—8. Debt, offset by higher borrowings on the Revolving Credit Facilities compared to the prior corresponding period.

Foreign exchange gain, net was a $23 million gain, compared to a $37 million gain for the prior corresponding period. Foreign exchange gain, net is principally related to fluctuations in the euro to U.S. dollar exchange rate on internal and external debt, partially offset by a $10 million increase in foreign exchange losses on the Argentine peso in the current period.

Other non-operating expense (income), net was $1 million of expense, compared to $139 million of income for the prior corresponding period. During the prior corresponding period, the Company completed the sale of its Italian commercial services business, resulting in a $278 million gain, which was partially offset by the recognition of $120 million of expense representing our best estimate of probable loss associated with the DDI / Benson Matter provision at that time.

The increase in the provision for income taxes for the three months ended September 30, 2023 was primarily driven by the $29 million non-recurring tax benefit arising from the DDI/Benson Matter for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and the settlement of the 2015-2022 Italy tax audit in the three months ended September 30, 2023.

Partially offsetting the increase was a decrease in lottery management agreement (“LMA”) revenue of $5 million principally due to lower incentives expected in North America.

Systems, software, and other revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2023 decreased by $57 million, or 81%, from the prior corresponding period primarily due to the sale of our Italian commercial services business on September 14, 2022.

Total revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 increased $48 million, or 2%, to $3,180 million from $3,132 million for the prior corresponding period due primarily to player demand and product and game performance, as reflected by higher key performance indicators.

Product sales growth is primarily attributable to our Global Gaming segment experiencing increases in both machine units sold and a higher global average selling price from the prior corresponding period.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview

The Company’s business is capital intensive and requires liquidity to meet its obligations and fund growth. Historically, the Company’s primary sources of liquidity have been cash flows from operations and, to a lesser extent, cash proceeds from financing activities, including amounts available under the Revolving Credit Facilities. In addition to general working capital and operational needs, the Company’s liquidity requirements arise primarily from its need to meet debt service obligations and to fund capital expenditures and upfront license fee payments. The Company also requires liquidity to fund acquisitions and associated costs. The Company’s cash flows generated from operating activities together with cash flows generated from financing activities have historically been sufficient to meet the Company's liquidity needs.

The Company believes its ability to generate cash from operations to reinvest in its business is one of its fundamental financial strengths. Combined with funds currently available and committed borrowing capacity, the Company expects to have sufficient liquidity to meet its financial obligations in the ordinary course of business for the next 12 months from the date of issuance of these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and for the longer-term period thereafter.

The cash management activities, funding of operations, and investment of excess liquidity are centrally coordinated by a dedicated treasury team with the objective of ensuring effective and efficient management of funds.

At September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company's total available liquidity was as follows, respectively:
($ in millions)September 30, 2023December 31, 2022
Revolving Credit Facilities1,339 1,822 
Cash and cash equivalents558 590 
Total Liquidity1,897 2,412 

The Revolving Credit Facilities are subject to customary covenants (including maintaining a minimum ratio of EBITDA to total net interest costs and a maximum ratio of total net debt to EBITDA) and events of default, none of which are expected to impact the Company’s liquidity or capital resources.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company settled multiple long-term debt obligations through the use of cash on hand and utilization of the revolving credit facilities. Refer to “Item 1. Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)—8. Debt” included herein for further discussion of these transactions as well as information regarding the Company’s other debt obligations, including the maturity profile of borrowings and committed borrowing facilities.

At September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, approximately 28% and 20% of the Company’s net debt portfolio was exposed to interest rate fluctuations, respectively. The Company’s exposure to floating rates of interest primarily relates to the Euro Term Loan Facilities due January 2027 and the Revolving Credit Facilities.

The following table summarizes the Company’s USD equivalent cash balances by currency:

Total Cash558 100 590 100 

The Company maintains its cash deposits in a diversified portfolio of global banks, the majority of which are considered Global Systemically Important Banks. The Company holds an immaterial amount of cash in countries where there may be legal or economic restrictions on the ability of subsidiaries to transfer funds in the form of cash dividends, loans, or advances. As a result of the continued instability of the Argentine peso, at September 30, 2023, $14 million of the Company’s cash in Argentina was held in a money market fund and $3 million was held in a fixed income fund in an effort to offset the negative impact of further continued devaluation. Argentina’s economy remains highly inflationary for accounting purposes.

At September 30, 2023, we did not have any significant changes to off-balance sheet arrangements from those disclosed within our 2022 Form 20-F. Additionally, there have been no material changes to our contractual obligations disclosed under “Item 5.B. Liquidity and Capital Resources” in our 2022 Form 20-F.

Cash Flow Summary

The following tables summarize the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. A complete Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows is provided in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included herein.
Cash Flow - Operating Activities
For the nine months ended September 30,
($ in millions)20232022$ Change
Net cash provided by operating activities641 621 20 

Non-cash adjustments to net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 were $657 million, compared to $405 million for the prior corresponding period. The principal drivers of the increase in non-cash adjustments were related to the $278 million gain on the sale of the Italian Commercial Services Business in the prior corresponding period, $152 million in additional deferred income taxes, unfavorable changes in foreign exchange of $67 million, and an increase in depreciation and amortization of $32 million, partially offset by a decrease due to the absence of the $270 million DDI / Benson Matter provision recorded in the prior period and a $9 million decrease in losses on the extinguishment of debt from the prior corresponding period.

Changes in operating assets and liabilities resulted in cash outflows of $297 million and $229 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, primarily increasing due to the $220 million payment of the DDI / Benson Matter provision, partially offset due to a $115 million decrease in accrued income taxes payable as well as a reduction in interest payments.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company used $289 million of net cash for investing activities, an increase of $433 million from the prior corresponding period, principally due to $497 million generated from the sale of the Italy Commercial Services Business in the prior corresponding period and a $75 million increase in capital expenditures, primarily related to capitalized software expenses, offset by a decrease of $142 million related to the acquisition of iSoftBet in the prior period.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, cash flows used in financing activities primarily included $597 million, dividends paid and capital returned to non-controlling interests of $236 million, dividends paid to shareholders of $121 million, repurchases of common stock of $93 million, and net repayments of short-term borrowings of $51 million.

Risks related to the Company's Business and Industry

Divestitures may materially adversely affect the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows

From time to time, the Company may pursue divestitures in support of its strategic goals. For example, on May 10, 2021, the Company completed the sale of its Italian B2C gaming machine, sports betting, and digital gaming businesses to Gamenet Group S.p.A. and on September 14, 2022, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company completed the sale of the Company’s Italian commercial services business to PostePay S.p.A. – Patrimonio Destinato IMEL. On June 8, 2023, the Company also announced a review of potential strategic alternatives for the Global Gaming and PlayDigital segments, which includes the potential sale of these segments.

Divestitures involve risks, including difficulties in the separation of operations, services, products and personnel, the diversion of management's attention from other business concerns, the disruption of business, the potential loss of revenues, increased customer concentration, departures of key employees and the retention of uncertain contingent liabilities related to the divested business. The Company may not be successful in managing these or any other significant risks that it encounters in any divestiture the Company may undertake, and any such divestiture could materially and adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, and may also result in a diversion of management attention, operational difficulties and losses. Further, there can be no assurance whether the strategic benefits and expected financial impact of any divestiture will be achieved.
