ENTERTAINMENT GAMING ASIA INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

 

Note 1.   Description of Business and Significant Accounting Policies

 

The business activities of the Company entail the owning and leasing of electronic gaming machines (EGMs) placed in premier hotels and other venues in Cambodia and the Philippines, the development and operation of casinos and gaming establishments under the Dreamworld brand in select emerging markets in the Indo-China region and the design, manufacture and distribution of gaming chips and plaques under the Dolphin brand to major casinos primarily in Southeast Asia and Australia. Previously the Company was engaged in the design, manufacture and distribution of other, non-gaming plastic products, primarily for the automotive industry. These operations were sold on March 28, 2013 and related historical revenues and expenses have been reclassified as discontinued operations. The accounting policies of these segments are consistent with the Company’s policies for the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

 

Effective since January 1, 2012, the Company adopted the FASB issued ASU 2011-05, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income, as amended by ASU 2011-12, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Deferral of the Effective Date for Amendments to the Presentation of Reclassifications of Items Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05. The amended standards eliminate the option to present components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in stockholders’ equity and require that all changes in stockholders’ equity - except investments by, and distributions to, owners - be presented either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. The adoption of these amended standards revised the manner which entities present comprehensive income in their financial statements. In addition, the amended standards require to present the changes in accumulated other comprehensive income by component in the statement of stockholders’ equity or in the notes to the financial statements. The Company has elected to present the other comprehensive income in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income and present the changes in accumulated other comprehensive income in the statement of stockholders’ equity. The adoption of the amended standards did not have any impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or earnings per share. The new presentation required by the amended standards has been applied retrospectively to all periods presented.

 

Basis of Presentation

 

These consolidated financial statements are prepared pursuant to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 8-03 of Regulation S-X promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments and other adjustments, which management believes are necessary to fairly present the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company, for the respective periods presented. The results of operations for an interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any other interim period or the year as a whole. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012, filed with the SEC on March 28, 2013. Certain previously reported amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

 

The Company effected a 1-for-4 reverse stock split of its common shares as of June 12, 2012. All historical share amounts and share price information presented in the financial statements and notes have been proportionally adjusted to reflect the impact of this reverse stock split, including but not limited to basic and diluted weighted-average shares issued and outstanding.

 

  Principles of Consolidation

 

These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Entertainment Gaming Asia Inc. and all its subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The Company is required to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that it believes are reasonable based on its historical experience, contract terms, observance of known trends in the Company and the industry as a whole, and information available from other outside sources. These estimates affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. On a regular basis, the Company evaluates its estimates, including those related to revenue recognition, product returns, long-lived assets, inventory obsolescence, stock-based compensation, income taxes, bad debts, warranty obligations, long-term contracts, contingencies and litigation. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

Discontinued Operations

 

A discontinued operation is a component of an entity that either has been disposed of, or that is classified as held for sale, and (i) represents a separate major line of business or geographical area of operations; and (ii) is a part of a single coordinated plan to dispose of a separate major line of business or geographical area of operations; or (iii) is a subsidiary acquired exclusively with a view to resale.

 

Non-current assets held for discontinued operations are carried at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell. Any gain or loss from disposal of a business, together with the results of these operations until the date of disposal, is reported separately as discontinued operations. The financial information of discontinued operations is excluded from the respective captions in the Company's consolidated statements of comprehensive income and related notes for all years presented.

  

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

All highly-liquid instruments with original maturities of three months or less are considered cash equivalents. The Company places its cash and temporary investments with financial institutions. As of June 30, 2013, the Company had deposits with financial institutions in excess of Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) insured limits by approximately $4.5 million.

 

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

 

Accounts receivable are stated at face value less any allowances for doubtful accounts. Allowances for doubtful accounts are maintained at levels determined by Company management to adequately provide for uncollectible amounts. In determining the estimated uncollectable amounts, the Company evaluates a combination of factors, including, but not limited to, activity in the related market, financial condition of customers, specific customer collection experience and history of write-offs and collections. Interest income is imposed on overdue accounts receivable after the Company evaluates a combination of factors, including but not limited to, customer collection experiences, customer relationship and contract terms. Accounts receivable balances are written off after all collection efforts have been exhausted.

 

Inventories

 

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost, determined using the first-in, first-out method, or market. Cost elements included in work-in-process and finished goods include raw materials, direct labor and manufacturing overheads.

 

Long-Lived Assets

 

The Company accounts for impairment of long-lived assets in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) ASC 360, Property, Plant and Equipment . Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. In such instances, the Company estimates the undiscounted future cash flows that result from the use of the asset and its ultimate disposition. If the sum of the undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying value, the Company recognizes an impairment loss, measured as the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the asset, determined principally using discounted cash flows. There were no impairment charges for long-lived assets for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2013. Impairment charges of approximately $71,000 were recognized for long-lived assets for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2012.

 

Prepaids, Deposits and Other Assets

 

Prepaids, deposits and other assets consist primarily of prepaid leases, prepaid value-added taxes in foreign countries, prepayments to suppliers, rental and utilities deposits and restricted cash as lease security. The Company had restricted cash in the amounts of $NIL and $331,000 as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively, in the form of certificates of deposits as security on leases.

 

Gaming Equipment

 

Gaming equipment consists primarily of electronic gaming machines (EGMs) and systems. EGMs and systems are stated at cost. The Company depreciates new EGMs and systems over a five-year useful life and depreciates refurbished EGMs and systems over a three-year useful life once placed in service. Depreciation of gaming equipment of approximately $1.1 million and $1.2 million and $2.1 million and $2.3 million was included in cost of gaming operations in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

 

7
 

 

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the useful lives of the assets currently estimated to be three to twenty years, which in the case of leasehold improvements, is limited to the life of the lease and throughout the renewal period as long as renewal is reasonably assured.

 

Depreciation of property and equipment of approximately $191,000 and $32,000 and $280,000 and $32,000 was recorded in the cost of gaming operations in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

 

Depreciation of property and equipment of approximately $67,000 and $16,000 and $108,000 and $33,000 was included in cost of gaming products in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

 

Goodwill and Intangible Assets, Including Casino Contracts

 

Intangible assets consist of patents, trademarks, technical know-how, gaming operation agreement, casino contracts and goodwill. Intangible assets other than goodwill are amortized on the straight-line basis over the period of time the asset is expected to contribute directly or indirectly to future cash flows, which ranges from four to ten years. The straight-line amortization method is utilized because the Company believes there is no more reliably determinable method of reflecting the pattern for which the economic benefits of the intangible assets are consumed or otherwise used.

 

Amortization expenses related to casino contracts were approximately $617,000 and $615,000 and $1.2 million and $1.2 million for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Amortization expenses related to other gaming related intangibles were approximately $63,000 and $63,000 and $126,000 and $126,000 for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The amounts were accounted for as cost of gaming operations in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income. Amortization expenses related to technical know-how were approximately $7,000 and $2,000 and $13,000 and $2,000 for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The amounts were accounted for as cost of gaming products in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income. Amortization expenses related to patents and trademarks were approximately $6,000 and $6,000 and $12,000 and $12,000 for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The amounts were accounted for as selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income.

 

The Company measures and tests finite-lived intangibles for impairment when there are indicators of impairment in accordance with ASC 360-10-05, Property, Plant and Equipment .

 

The Company measures and tests Goodwill for impairment, at least annually in accordance with ASC 350-10-05,  Intangibles — Goodwill and Other .

 

Impairment testing for goodwill and other intangibles requires judgment, including the identification of reporting units, allocation of related goodwill, assignment of corporate shared assets and liabilities to reporting units, estimated future cash flows and determinations of fair values. While the Company believes its estimates of future revenues and cash flows are reasonable, different assumptions could materially affect the assessment of useful lives, recoverability and fair values. No impairment charges relating to intangible assets were recorded for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

 

Litigation and Other Contingencies

 

In the performance of its ordinary course of business operations, the Company is subject to risks of various legal matters, litigation and claims of various types. The Company has regular litigation reviews, including updates from corporate and outside counsel, to assess the need for accounting recognition or disclosure of these contingencies. The status of a significant claim is summarized in Note 16.

 

ASC 450, Contingencies, requires that liabilities for contingencies be recorded when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and that the amount can be reasonably estimated. Significant management judgment is required related to contingent liabilities and the outcome of litigation because both are difficult to predict. For a contingency for which an unfavorable outcome is reasonably possible and which is significant, the Company discloses the nature of the contingency and, when feasible, an estimate of the possible loss.

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company recognizes revenue when all of the following have been satisfied:

 

· Persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists;
· The price to the customer is fixed and determinable;
· Delivery has occurred and any acceptance terms have been fulfilled;
· No significant contractual obligations remain; and
· Collection is reasonably assured.

 

Gaming Revenue and Promotional Allowances

 

The Company earns recurring gaming revenue from its slot and casino operations.

 

For slot operations, the Company earns recurring gaming revenue by providing customers with EGMs and casino management systems which track game performance and provide statistics on installed EGMs owned by the Company and leased to venue owners. Revenues are recognized on the contractual terms of the slot agreements between the Company and the venue owners and are based on the Company’s share of net winnings, net of customer incentives and commitment fees.

 

Revenues are recognized as earned with the exception of one of the Company’s venues in which revenues were recognized when the payment for net winnings was received as the collections from this venue were not reasonably assured. The slot contract with this venue owner was terminated on July 31, 2012 and the Company collected the balance of payments in the fourth quarter of 2012.

 

Commitment fees paid to the venue operators relating to contract amendments which are not recoverable from daily net win are capitalized as assets and amortized as a reduction of revenue over the term of the amended contracts. The Company had commitment fee balances related to contract amendments of approximately $288,000 and $342,000 as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively.

 

For casino operations, the Company’s revenues are measured by the aggregate net difference between gaming wins and losses, with liabilities recognized for funds deposited by customers before gaming play occurs and for chips in the customers’ possession, if any. Cash discounts, other cash incentives related to casino play and commissions rebated through junkets or tour guides, if any, to customers are recorded as a reduction to casino revenue. Consequently, the Company’s casino revenues are reduced by discounts and commissions.

 

The Company does not accrue a jackpot liability for its slot machine base and progressive jackpots because it can avoid payment of such amounts. Regulations do not prohibit removal of gaming machines from the gaming floor without payment of such jackpots.

 

Promotional allowances represent goods and services, which would be accounted for as revenue if sold, that a casino gives to customers as an inducement to gamble at that establishment. Such goods and services include food and beverages. The Company includes the retail value of promotional allowances in gross revenues and deducts it from gross revenues to reach net revenues on the face of the consolidated statements of comprehensive income.

 

Gaming Products Sales

 

The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of its gaming products to end users upon shipment against customer contracts or purchase orders. 

 

9
 

 

The Company also recognizes revenue from the sale of its products to end users on bill-and-hold arrangements when all of the following have been satisfied:

 

· The risk of ownership must be passed to the buyer;
· The customer must have a fixed commitment to purchase the goods;
· The buyer, not the Company, must request that the transaction be on bill and hold basis;
· There must be a fixed schedule for the delivery of goods;
· The Company must not have specific performance obligations such that the earning process is not complete;
· The ordered goods must be segregated from the Company’s inventory and not subject to being used to fill other orders, and;
· The product must be complete and ready for shipment.

 

There were no sales related to bill-and-hold arrangements for both the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

Under the fair value recognition provisions of ASC 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation , the Company recognizes stock-based compensation expenses for all service-based awards to employees and non-employee directors with graded vesting schedules on the straight-line basis over the requisite service period for the entire award. Estimates are revised if subsequent information indicates that forfeitures will differ from previous estimates, and the cumulative effect on compensation cost of a change in the estimated forfeitures is recognized in the period of the change. For non-employee awards, the Company remeasures compensation cost each period until the service condition is complete and recognizes compensation cost on the straight-line basis over the requisite service period. Option valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions, and changes in the assumptions used can materially affect the fair value estimates. Judgment is required in estimating stock price volatility, forfeiture rates, expected dividends, and expected terms that options remain outstanding. For restricted stock awards with performance conditions, the Company evaluates if performance conditions are probable in each reporting period. The compensation expense of restricted awards is recognized ratably over the implicit service period if achieving performance conditions is probable. Cumulative catch-up adjustments are required in the event of changes in assessment of probability. See Note 12 for additional information relating to stock-based compensation assumptions. Stock-based compensation expense totaled approximately $198,000 and $287,000 and $445,000 and $552,000 for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

 

Product Development

 

Product development expenses are charged to expense as incurred. Employee related costs associated with product development are included in product development expenses. Product development expenses were approximately $35,000 and $86,000 and $155,000 and $186,000 for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The decrease was primarily a result of reduced product development activities for the gaming products division during the relocation of the manufacturing facilities from Australia to Hong Kong during the three-month period ended June 30, 2013.

 

Leases

 

Leases are classified at the inception date as either a capital lease or an operating lease. A lease is a capital lease if any of the following conditions exists:

 

· Ownership is transferred to the lessee by the end of the lease term;
· There is a bargain purchase option;
· The lease term is at least 75% of the property’s estimated remaining economic life; or
· The present value of the minimum lease payments at the beginning of the lease term is 90% or more of the fair value of the leased property to the lessor at the inception date.

 

A capital lease is accounted for as if there was an acquisition of an asset and an incurrence of an obligation at the inception of the lease. All other leases are accounted for as operating leases wherein rental payments are expensed as incurred. The Company had no capital leases as of June 30, 2013.

Income Taxes

 

The Company is subject to income taxes in the United States (including federal and state) and several foreign jurisdictions in which it operates. Deferred income tax balances reflect the effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax basis and are stated at enacted tax rates expected to be in effect when taxes are actually paid or recovered. ASC 740,  Income Taxes, requires that deferred tax assets be evaluated for future realization and reduced by a valuation allowance to the extent the Company believes a portion will not be realized. The Company considers many factors when assessing the likelihood of future realization of its deferred tax assets, including its recent cumulative earnings experience and expectations of future taxable income by taxing jurisdiction, the carry-forward periods available to the Company for tax reporting purposes, and other relevant factors.

 

The Company accounts for uncertain tax positions in accordance with ASC 740, which contains a two-step approach to recognizing and measuring uncertain tax positions. The first step is to evaluate the tax position for recognition by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained on audit, including resolution of related appeals or litigation processes, if any. The second step is to measure the tax benefit as the largest amount which is more than 50% likely to be realized upon ultimate settlement. The Company considers many factors when evaluating and estimating its tax positions and tax benefits, which may require periodic adjustments and which may not accurately anticipate actual outcomes. The Company recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits in the provision for income taxes in the statements of comprehensive income.

 

On December 31, 2010, the Company effected a Quasi-Reorganization. As of that date, the Company’s deferred taxes were reported in conformity with applicable income tax accounting standards described above, net of applicable valuation allowances. Deferred tax assets and liabilities were recognized for differences between the assigned values and the tax basis of the recognized assets and liabilities with corresponding valuation allowances as appropriate. In accordance with the Quasi-Reorganization requirements, pre-existing tax benefits realized subsequent to the Quasi-Reorganization are recorded directly in equity.

 

(Loss)/Earnings Per Share

 

Basic (loss)/earnings per share are computed by dividing the reported net (loss)/earnings by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing the net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock and shares issuable from stock options and restricted shares during the period. The computation of diluted earnings per share excludes the impact of stock options and restricted shares that are anti-dilutive. There is no difference in diluted loss per share from basic loss per share as the assumed exercise of common stock equivalents would have an anti-dilutive effect due to losses.

 

Foreign Currency Translations and Transactions

 

The functional currency of the Company’s international subsidiaries, except for its operations in Cambodia whose functional currency is the U.S. dollar, is generally the local currency. For these subsidiaries, the Company translates the assets and liabilities at exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date and income and expense accounts at average exchange rates during the year. Resulting currency translation adjustments are recorded directly to accumulated other comprehensive income within stockholders’ equity. Gains and losses resulting from transactions in non-functional currencies are recorded in the statements of comprehensive income.

Fair Value Measurements

 

Fair value is defined under ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures , as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value under ASC 820 must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The standard establishes a fair value hierarchy based on three levels of input, of which the first two are considered observable and the last unobservable.

 

· Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. These are typically obtained from real-time quotes for transactions in active exchange markets involving identical assets.

 

· Level 2 — Input, other than quoted prices included within Level 1, which are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These are typically obtained from readily-available pricing sources for comparable instruments.

 

· Level 3 — Unobservable input, where there is little or no market activity for the asset or liability. This input reflects the reporting entity’s own assumptions of the data that participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, based on the best information available under the circumstances.

 

As of June 30, 2013, the fair values of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate carrying values due to the short maturity of these items.

 

Guarantees

 

The Company recognizes a guarantee at its inception which is the greater of (i) the fair value of the guarantee and (ii) the contingent liability amount. The fair value of a guarantee is determined by using expected present value measurement techniques. The initial liability recognized is amortized over the guarantee period.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

 

In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-02, Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income . The amendments do not change the current requirements for reporting net income or other comprehensive income in financial statements. However, the amendments require an entity to provide information about the amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by component. In addition, an entity is required to present, either on the face of the statement when net income is presented or in the notes, significant amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by the respective line items of net income but only if the amount reclassified is required under U.S. GAAP to be reclassified to net income in its entirety in the same reporting period. For public entities, the amendments are effective prospectively for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2012.

Note 2. Segments

 

The Company currently conducts business in two operating segments: (i) gaming operations, which includes electronic gaming machine (EGM) participation and casino operations; and (ii) gaming products, which consist of the design, manufacture and distribution of gaming chips and plaques. Previously, the Company was also engaged in the design, manufacture and distribution of other, non-gaming plastic products, primarily for the automotive industry. These operations were sold on March 28, 2013 and the related historical revenues and expenses have been reclassified as discontinued operations. The accounting policies of these segments are consistent with the Company’s policies for the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Note 12. Stock-Based Compensation

 

Options

 

The Company effected a 1-for-4 reverse stock split of its common shares as of June 12, 2012. All historical share amounts and share price information presented in this Note 12 have been proportionally adjusted to reflect the impact of this reverse stock split.

 

At the annual shareholders meeting held on September 8, 2008, a new stock option plan, the “2008 Stock Incentive Plan” (the “2008 Plan”), was voted on and became effective on January 1, 2009, which replaced two previous plans, the Amended and Restated 1999 Stock Option Plan and the Amended and Restated 1999 Directors’ Stock Option Plan (the “Stock Option Plans”), thereby terminating both of the Stock Option Plans on December 31, 2008.

 

The 2008 Plan allows for incentive awards to eligible recipients consisting of:

· Options to purchase shares of common stock that qualify as incentive stock options within the meaning of the Internal Revenue Code;
· Non-statutory stock options that do not qualify as incentive options;
· Restricted stock awards; and
· Performance stock awards which are subject to future achievement of performance criteria or free of any performance or vesting.

 

The maximum number of shares reserved for issuance under the 2008 Plan was originally 1,250,000 shares, and in July 2010 the Company’s shareholders approved an increase in the number of shares reserved for issuance to 2,500,000 shares. At the annual shareholders meeting held on July 13, 2012, the Company’s shareholders approved a further increase in the number of shares reserved for issuance to 3,750,000 shares. The exercise price shall not be less than 100% of the fair market value of one share of common stock on the date of grant, unless the participant owns more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any parent or subsidiary corporation of the Company, in which case the exercise price shall then be 110% of the fair market value. The outstanding stock options generally vest from six-months and one-day to over three years and have ten-year contractual terms.

 

17
 

 

During the six-month period ended June 30, 2013, stock options for the purchase of 360,000 shares of common stock were granted with a weighted average exercise price of $1.93 and weighted average fair value of $1.18 (2012: $0.76) per share and will vest from six-month and one day to three-year periods. During the six-month period ended June 30, 2013, 50,000 shares of restricted stock awards with a fair value of $1.97 per share were issued. The shares of restricted stock shall vest, subject to and upon the recipient’s achievement of key operational and financial performance milestones. For restricted stock awards with performance conditions, the Company evaluates if performance conditions are probable in each reporting period. The compensation expense of restricted awards is recognized ratably over the implicit service period if achieving performance conditions is probable. Cumulative catch-up adjustments are required in the event of any changes in the assessment of probabilities.

 

During the six-month period ended June 30, 2013 there was no exercise of outstanding stock options.

 

Prior to January 1, 2009, the Company had two stock options plans, the Amended and Restated 1999 Stock Option Plan and the Amended and Restated 1999 Directors’ Stock Option Plan (the “Previous Stock Option Plans”), through which 3,750,000 shares and 75,000 shares were authorized, respectively. Both Previous Stock Option Plans expired on December 31, 2008; however, options granted under the Previous Stock Option Plans that were outstanding as of the date of termination remain outstanding and subject to termination according to their terms.

 

As of June 30, 2013, stock options for the purchase of 936,864 and 22,500 shares of common stock, respectively, were outstanding in relation to the Amended and Restated 1999 Stock Option Plan and the Amended and Restated 1999 Director’s Stock Option Plan.

 

As of June 30, 2013, there were no outstanding non-plan options to purchase common stock. All previously granted non-plan options had expired by December 31, 2012. The non-plan options were issued to certain employees and non-employees of EGT Entertainment Holding as approved by the Company’s stockholders in September 2007 pursuant to the initial closing of the transactions under the Securities Purchase and Product Participation Agreement dated June 12, 2007 between the Company and EGT Entertainment Holding.

 

As of June 30, 2013, stock options for the purchase of 2,357,374 shares of common stock were outstanding under the 2008 Plan.

 

As of June 30, 2013, 2,619,239 stock options were exercisable with a weighted average exercise price of $2.19, a weighted average fair value of $0.83 and an aggregate intrinsic value of approximately $2.0 million. The total fair value of shares vested during the six-month period ended June 30, 2013 was approximately $543,000. The total compensation cost related to unvested shares as of June 30, 2013 was approximately $524,000. The amount is expected to be recognized over 1.93 years.

Recognition and Measurement

 

The fair value of each stock-based award to employees and non-employee directors is estimated on the measurement date which generally is the grant date while awards to non-employees are measured at the earlier of the performance commitment date or the service completion date using the Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing model. Option valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions, and changes in assumptions used can materially affect the fair value estimates. The Company estimates the expected life of the award by taking into consideration the vesting period, contractual term, historical exercise data, expected volatility, blackout periods and other relevant factors. Volatility is estimated by evaluating the Company’s historical volatility data. The risk-free interest rate on the measurement date is based on U.S. Treasury constant maturity rates for a period approximating the expected life of the award. The Company historically has not paid dividends and it does not expect to pay dividends in the foreseeable future and, therefore, the expected dividend rate is zero.

(1) Vested shares included 25,000 shares of restricted common stock issued in 2013 for which final vesting is subject to the approval by the Company’s compensation committee.

 

The following table summarizes the range of assumptions utilized in the Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing model for the valuation of stock options granted during the six-month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012.

 

    Six-Month Periods Ended June 30,  
    2013     2012  
Range of values:   Low     High     Low     High

Risk free rate     0.55 %     2.45 %     0.63 %     1.95 %

 

For stock-based compensation accrued to employees and non-employee directors, the Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense for all service-based awards with graded vesting schedules on the straight-line basis over the requisite service period for the entire award. Initial accruals of compensation expense are based on the estimated number of shares for which requisite service is expected to be rendered. Estimates are revised if subsequent information indicates that forfeitures will differ from previous estimates, and the cumulative effect on compensation cost of a change in the estimated forfeitures is recognized in the period of the change.

 

For non-employee awards, the Company remeasures compensation cost each period until the service condition is complete and recognizes compensation cost on the straight-line basis over the requisite service period.

 

The Company estimates forfeitures and recognizes compensation cost only for those awards expected to vest assuming all awards would vest and reverses recognized compensation cost for forfeited awards when the awards are actually forfeited.

 

For awards with service conditions and graded vesting that were granted prior to the adoption of ASC 718, the Company estimates the requisite service period and the number of shares expected to vest, and recognizes compensation expense for each tranche on the straight-line basis over the estimated requisite service period.

 

Note 13. Related Party Transactions

 

Effective January 1, 2010, the Company began sub-leasing office space from Melco Services Limited, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Melco International Development Limited, which is also the parent of the Company’s principal shareholder, EGT Entertainment Holding. This sub-lease expired at the end of March 2013 and, subsequently, the Company moved its principal executive office to the premises of the new Hong Kong Dolphin facilities. The relocation of the Company’s principal executive office serves to minimize costs and improve oversight of its Dolphin operations.

 

19
 

 

On April 21, 2008, the Company entered into a Trade Credit Facility Agreement (the “Facility Agreement”) with Elixir International Limited (“Elixir International”), a company which used to be a wholly-owned subsidiary of EGT Entertainment Holding, the Company’s principal shareholder. Upon entering into the Agreement, the Company issued the first note pursuant to the terms of the Facility Agreement in the principal amount of $15.0 million (the “Initial Advance”).  The Initial Advance extinguished a then trade payable of an equivalent amount to Elixir International with respect to EGMs previously acquired.

 

As a result of the disposal of Elixir International by EGT Entertainment Holding, Elixir International assigned and novated all its rights and obligations under the Facility Agreement and the related promissory note (as amended) to EGT Entertainment Holding in April 2010.

 

Subsequent to its origination, the Facility Agreement was amended three times, mostly recently on May 25, 2010 on which date the Company issued a new note (the “Third Amended Note) to replace the previous terms.  Under the terms of the Third Amended Note, the Company paid total principal and interest of approximately $6.2 million and $143,000, respectively in equal monthly installments to EGT Entertainment Holding for the year ended December 31, 2012. As of December 31, 2012, the notes payable to EGT Entertainment Holding were fully settled.

Note 14. Income Taxes

 

The Company recorded income tax expense of approximately $8,000 and $35,000 and $49,000 and $89,000 for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The Company’s effective income tax rates were (2.0)% and 7.6% and (7.3)% and 6.4% for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The Company’s EGT Cambodia and Dreamworld Casino (Pailin) operations are tax exempt, paying a fixed monthly tax rather than a tax on income. The change in effective tax rate was mainly due to an increase in consolidated pre-tax loss. 

 

The fixed obligation tax arrangement is subject to annual renewal and negotiation. Earlier this year, the Company renewed the fixed obligation tax arrangement for both EGT Cambodia and Dreamworld Casino (Pailin) for 2013.

 

The Company has been subjected to income tax examinations by tax authorities in jurisdictions in which it operates. During the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2012, the United States Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) conducted an audit of the Company’s 2008 and 2009 tax returns in the United States. On January 23, 2013, the IRS formally notified the Company that it had completed the review of the examination of the above-mentioned years with no changes to the Company’s tax position.

 

The Company’s 2008 to 2012 Australian income tax returns could be subject to examination by the Australian Taxation Office. The Company’s 2009 to 2012 Cambodian income tax returns could be subject to examination by the General Department of Taxation. The Company’s 2009 to 2012 Philippines income tax returns could be subject to examination by the Philippines Bureau of Internal Revenue.

Note 15. Discontinued Operations

 

From July 2006 until March 2013, the Company conducted the development, manufacture and sale of gaming chips and plaques from its subsidiary, Dolphin Products Pty Limited (“Dolphin Australia”) in Melbourne, Australia. It also conducted the development, manufacture and sale of non-gaming plastic products for a number of industries, including the automotive industry, from the Melbourne facility.

 

On February 22, 2013, the Company entered into a Share Sale Agreement with the then general manager of the Company’s Dolphin Australia operations, pursuant to which it agreed to sell him the portion of its business dedicated to the non-gaming plastic products, mainly automotive parts. The sale was completed on March 28, 2013. In connection with the sale of non-gaming operations, the Company relocated its gaming products operations, which included gaming chips and plaques, from Melbourne, Australia to Hong Kong. Commercial production in the new facility commenced in May 2013.

 

Prior to the completion of the sale, the Company transferred out of Dolphin Australia to Elixir Gaming Technologies (Hong Kong) Limited and a newly formed Dolphin Products Limited company in Hong Kong, both of which are subsidiaries wholly-owned by the Company, all working capital on hand and all assets and operations relating to the Company’s gaming chips and plaques operations, including all trademarks, patent rights and other intellectual property.

 

The purchase price received pursuant to the Share Sale Agreement was AUD350,000. The Company also agreed to assume Dolphin Australia’s liabilities for (i) severance under Australian labor laws for those employees to be terminated by Dolphin Australia as part of the transactions, approximately $750,000, (ii) the lease for the Melbourne facility through the end of its present term expiring in January 2014, net of sub-lease income, approximately $350,000, and (iii) all Dolphin Australia payables, net of receivables, relating to both gaming and non-gaming operations up to March 28, 2013.

 

The buyer owed the Company $1.1 million for the settlement of working capital related to the sale of the non-gaming Dolphin assets of which approximately $900,000 had been settled as of June 30, 2013.

 

As part of the sale transaction, the Company also agreed to grant Dolphin Australia a non-transferable, substantially royalty-free license to utilize certain trademarks and patent rights in connection with Dolphin Australia’s manufacture and sale of plastic products for the non-gaming industries.

Legal Matters

 

Prime Mover/Strata Litigation

 

On March 26, 2010, a complaint (as subsequently amended on May 28, 2010) (the “Complaint”) was filed by certain of the Company’s shareholders including Prime Mover Capital Partners L.P., Strata Fund L.P., Strata Fund Q.P. L.P., and Strata Offshore Fund, Ltd (collectively, the “Plaintiffs”) in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York against certain defendants including the Company and certain other of our current and former directors and officers.

 

21
 

 

The Complaint alleges claims related to disclosures concerning our electronic gaming machine participation business (the “Slot Business”), including but not limited to the alleged violations of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder, violations of Nevada Revised Statutes Sections 90.580(e) and 90.660(3), breach of fiduciary duty, and negligent misrepresentations.  The Plaintiffs allege that the Company and certain other defendants made false and misleading statements about the Slot Business in filings with the SEC, press releases, and other industry and investor conferences and meetings during the period from June 13, 2007 to August 13, 2008 and that the Plaintiffs then purchased the securities at the inflated prices and later suffered economic losses when the price of our securities decreased.

 

On June 22, 2011, the court dismissed all of the Plaintiffs’ claims except for two breach-of-contract counts against the Company. All claims against the current and former officers and directors were dismissed. On December 20, 2011 the Plaintiffs filed a second amended Complaint (the “Second Amended Complaint”) for re-pleading all the securities claims against the Company and all the relevant current and/or former officers and directors.

 

On September 27, 2012, the District Court dismissed Plaintiffs’ Second Amended Complaint in its entirety. On September 28, 2012, the clerk entered a judgment against the Plaintiffs. Accordingly, all claims against the Company and the current and former officers and directors, including the Plaintiffs’ breach of contract claims, were dismissed.

 

On October 25, 2012, the Plaintiffs filed a Notice of Appeal seeking review by the Second Circuit Court of Appeals of the District Court’s order and judgment dismissing the Second Amended Complaint (the “Appeal”). The parties have filed their respective briefs (the Plaintiffs did not file a reply brief, however) and requested oral argument, but the Second Circuit has not scheduled oral argument or decided whether to grant the parties’ requests for oral argument. The Second Circuit has the ability to affirm or reverse the District Court’s order and judgment in whole or in part, and can decide to reinstate some or all of the claims from Plaintiffs’ Second Amended Complaint.

 

The Plaintiffs seek unspecified damages, as well as interest, costs and attorneys’ fees. The Company intends to defend itself vigorously against the Plaintiffs’ claims. As the litigation is at a preliminary stage, it is not possible to predict the likely outcome of the case or the probable loss, if any, or the continuation of insurance coverage and, accordingly, no accrual has been made for any possible losses in connection with this matter.

(1) For the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2013, there were no differences in diluted loss per share from basic loss per share as the assumed exercise of common stock equivalents would have an anti-dilutive effect due to losses.

 

Outstanding stock options for 2,166,738 and 952,548 shares of common stock were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively as their effect would have been anti-dilutive. Outstanding stock options for 2,166,738 and 1,856,921 shares of common stock were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively as their effect would have been anti-dilutive.

Item 2.  Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT

 

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our unaudited consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto contained elsewhere in this report. The information contained in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q is not a complete description of our business or the risks associated with an investment in our common stock. We urge you to carefully review and consider the various disclosures made by us in this report and in our other reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, including our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012, filed with the SEC on March 28, 2013 and subsequent reports on Form 8-K, which discuss our business in greater detail.

 

In this report we make, and from time to time we otherwise make, written and oral statements regarding our business and prospects, such as projections of future performance, statements of management’s plans and objectives, forecasts of market trends, and other matters that are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Statements containing the words or phrases “will likely result,” “are expected to,” “will continue,” “is anticipated,” “estimates,” “projects,” “believes,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “target,” “goal,” “plans,” “objective,” “should” or similar expressions identify forward-looking statements, which may appear in documents, reports, filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, news releases, written or oral presentations made by officers or other representatives made by us to analysts, stockholders, investors, news organizations and others, and discussions with management and other of our representatives. For such statements, we claim the protection of the safe harbor for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

 

Our future results, including results related to forward-looking statements, involve a number of risks and uncertainties. No assurance can be given that the results reflected in any forward-looking statements will be achieved. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which such statement is made. Our forward-looking statements are based upon assumptions that are sometimes based upon estimates, data, communications and other information from suppliers, government agencies and other sources that may be subject to revision. Except as required by law, we do not undertake any obligation to update or keep current either (i) any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances arising after the date of such statement, or (ii) the important factors that could cause our future results to differ materially from historical results or trends, results anticipated or planned by us, or which are reflected from time to time in any forward-looking statement.

 

There are several important factors that could cause our future results to differ materially from historical results or trends, results anticipated or planned by us, or results that are reflected from time to time in any forward-looking statement. Some of these important factors, but not necessarily all important factors, are included in this Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and in the section “Risk Factors” in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 filed with the SEC on March 28, 2013.

 

We own or have rights to certain trademarks that we used in connection with our business or products, including, but not limited to, Dolphin™. Other than this trademark, this report also makes reference to trademarks and trade names of other companies.

 

On June 12, 2012, we effected a 1-for-4 reverse stock split of our common stock and corresponding decrease in the number of authorized shares of common stock. All historical share amounts and share information presented in the financial statements and notes have been proportionally adjusted to reflect the impact of this reverse stock split, including but not limited to basic and diluted weighted-average shares issued and outstanding. Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior periods' financial statements to conform to the current period's presentation.

 

On March 28, 2013, we sold a portion of our subsidiary, Dolphin Products Pty Limited, business dedicated to the manufacture and sale of non-gaming plastic products, mainly automotive parts. Revenues of these non-gaming products and our gaming chips and plaques were previously consolidated under the reporting segment “Other Products.” After the sale, we renamed “Other Products” as “Gaming Products” and this segment now comprises exclusively our gaming chips and plaques operations. All related historical revenues and expenses from the sold non-gaming assets have been reclassified as discontinued operations.

 

Overview

 

We are a gaming company focused on capitalizing on the growth opportunities in emerging gaming markets of Asia. We generate revenue in two principal ways: gaming operations and gaming product sales. Our gaming operations comprise slot operations in Cambodia and the Philippines and the development and operation of regional style casinos and gaming venues under our Dreamworld brand in Indo-China. Our gaming products presently comprise the manufacture and sale of gaming chips and plaques under our Dolphin brand.

 

24
 

 

 

During the six-month period ended June 30, 2013, we expanded gaming operations with the opening of a new property, Dreamworld Club (Poipet). In addition, we completed plans to restructure our legacy businesses with the divestiture of a low-margin, non-gaming business and relocation and repositioning of the gaming products division.

 

 

Our consolidated revenue for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2013 was approximately $5.8 million and $12.5 million, of which revenue from the gaming operations and gaming products segments comprised 97% and 3% and 87% and 13%, respectively, of consolidated revenue. This compares to consolidated revenue of approximately $6.2 million and $11.7 million for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2012, of which revenue from the gaming operations and gaming products segments comprised 84% and 16% and 87% and 13%, respectively, of consolidated revenue.

 

We have developed our business model with the goal of creating growth potential and the ability to generate quality recurring cash flow. We believe that this model combined with our established presence and strong relationships in our markets provide us a solid foundation from which to capitalize on the growth opportunities in our target markets in Asia. We seek to improve revenue by making our gaming properties quality leaders in their markets by providing our customers with their favorite games, superior customer service and attractive and comfortable surroundings. We seek to increase and expand our diversified revenue streams through our gaming products division. We seek to improve margins by focusing on operational efficiency and cost control. Our long-term strategy includes responsible investment in improving and maintaining our existing operations and selectively securing new projects that will serve to enhance our presence and build deeper brand equity in the Dreamworld name in our markets. We intend to implement these strategies in ways that we believe will benefit our shareholders.

 

Slot Operations 

 

Our slot operations involve the leasing of electronic gaming machines (“EGMs”) on a revenue sharing basis to gaming establishments. We utilize our operational experience, established market presence and key relationships to identify and develop new gaming venues, acquire EGMs, casino management systems and other gaming peripherals directly from manufacturers, dealers and suppliers and install the same in our contracted venues. In addition, we assist the venue owners in brand-building and marketing promotions.

 

For certain of our slot contracts, such as with NagaWorld Resorts, Sokha Hotels and Resorts (“Sokha”) and Dreamworld Club (Poipet) in Cambodia, we also function as a manager of the EGM operations. In these venues, we either jointly manage with the relevant casino owner, as is the case with NagaWorld Resorts and Sokha, or exclusively manage, as is the case with Dreamworld Club (Poipet), the slot floor operations and design marketing programs and slot promotions for our designated gaming spaces. We also hire, train and manage the floor staff and set high expectations on the level of customer service.

As of June 30, 2013, our slot operations were located in two countries, Cambodia and the Philippines, and totaled 1,632 EGM seats in operation in a total of six venues. In Cambodia, we had a total of 1,062 EGM seats in operation in three venues. In the Philippines, we had a total of 570 EGM seats in operation in three venues. Due to our ongoing efforts to improve the returns for slot operations, we seek to selectively add new venues and refine existing operations to focus on those venues with the greatest potential.

  

In Cambodia, our slot operations largely focus on operating a substantial portion of the gaming machine area in prime casino floor locations at NagaWorld, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Hong Kong listed NagaCorp Ltd. (HKSE: 3918). NagaWorld is a premier luxury destination gaming resort and the only licensed full service casino in a designated area around the capital city of Phnom Penh. In December 2008, we established a relationship with NagaCorp to place EGMs on a revenue sharing or participation basis at NagaWorld and jointly operate those EGMs with them. Due to our successful performance, we subsequently amended our contract and expanded our relationship with NagaWorld and increased our EGM seats under contract in NagaWorld to 670. Our slot operations in NagaWorld are a primary contributor to our slot revenue and cash flow.

  

Our current operations in NagaWorld are governed under the Machines Operation and Participation Consolidation Agreement dated December 31, 2009, which was subsequently amended on May 25, 2010. Under the terms of these agreements, we and NagaWorld control the operation of a total of 670 of our EGMs, including floor staff and respective audit rights. We and NagaWorld split the win per unit per day from all the 670 EGMs and certain operating costs related to marketing and floor staff on a respective basis of 25%/75%. Win per unit per day from all the 670 EGMs are settled and our share is distributed daily to us. The contract term is six years commencing from March 1, 2010.

 

Our slot operations in Cambodia also include Thansur Bokor Highland Resort, a casino resort developed by leading Cambodian hotelier, Sokha, in a tourist area of the Kampot Province. The resort officially opened in May 2012, however, portions of the initial phase of the property including the entertainment complex were not completed until early 2013. To-date, we have placed approximately 200 EGMs in this venue. Under the terms of the agreement, we have the ability to place up to 250 EGM seats and jointly manage these slot operations in the resort. We and Sokha split the gross win and certain operating expenses for the placed EGMs on a respective basis of 27/73%. The contract duration is five years commencing from May 2012. This project expanded our gaming operations in the Indo-China region with a prominent partner with multiple hotel and resort properties in Cambodia.

 

Our most recent slot operations project in Cambodia is Dreamworld Club (Poipet). Unlike our other slot operations, we solely developed and operate this property. Dreamworld Club (Poipet) is a standalone slot hall with approximately 300 EGM seats, which we developed as an extension of the existing casino owned by a local company. It is prominently located in the established gaming market of Poipet in the Banteay Meanchey Province of Northwestern Cambodia near the Thailand border. Dreamworld Club (Poipet) soft opened on March 28, 2013 and the official grand opening was held on May 9, 2013.

 

Dreamworld Club (Poipet) operates under a machine operation and participation agreement with a local partner that owns and operates an existing casino in Poipet. Under the terms of the agreement, the local partner allocated part of its land with an area of approximately 16,000 square feet to us to develop and construct, at our own design, budget and cost, the slot venue. We and the local partner split the win per unit per day from all the EGMs placed by us at Dreamworld Club (Poipet) and certain operating costs related to marketing and floor staff on a respective basis of 40%/60%. The initial project term is five years beginning from the commercial launch of the slot hall in 2013 with an option to renew for an additional five years subject to the achievement of certain financial milestones during the initial five-year period.

 

Total capital expenditures for Dreamworld Club (Poipet), which principally included the development and construction of the facility and gaming equipment, were approximately $7.5 million, including approximately $5.0 million to source top-of-the-line EGMs. We are responsible for all capital expenditures for Dreamworld Club (Poipet) and those expenditures have been funded through our internal cash resources.

 

In the Philippines, our slot operations comprise three venues in the greater Manila area. For these three venues, our share of the net win per unit per day ranges from 15% to 35%. The typical initial term for these contracts is five years with renewal options. The strong Philippine economy, the interest of the government to expand gaming in the country and close geographic proximity to major markets in Asia, among other reasons, has led to increased development of major casinos in the market. While this results in increasing competition for our venues in this market, we believe we have a solid customer base as our venues there tend to attract locals in their respective areas. We remain focused on enhancing returns on these assets through efforts to implement, with the support of our venue owner partners, targeted marketing programs to maintain and expand our local customer base and to strategically manage the machine mix in our contracted venues. Also, we proactively solicit feedback from our customers on such matters as gaming offerings, customer service, entertainment and atmosphere and, with the support of our venue owner partners, seek to make improvements where possible to address customer preferences and strengthen their loyalty.

In addition, we continue to selectively pursue additional slot operations projects in our target markets. Total company-wide EGM placements can fluctuate due to our strategic efforts to optimize average daily net wins. In the event that the EGM performance at a contracted venue does not meet our original expectations, and to the extent permitted under the terms of the relevant contracts, we may discuss with the venue owner withdrawing all or a portion of our EGMs from such venue for future redeployment in new or existing venues with better performance prospects.

 

Casino Operations

 

Our casino operations presently comprise one property, Dreamworld Casino (Pailin), which is located in the Pailin Province of Northwestern Cambodia next to the Thailand border. The casino opened in May 2012 and presently houses 26 table games and 58 EGM seats.

 

In an effort to improve earnings performance, we intend to refocus Dreamworld Casino (Pailin)’s operations in an effort to better capitalize on existing market conditions and allow for a substantial reduction in operating expenses.

 

The new strategy entails a shift in the primary focus to the VIP market and a decrease in emphasis on high-cost, mass market tour groups. This is intended to significantly reduce operating costs while increasing the dollar level of play. With this shift in focus, we intend to reduce the total number of tables in operation from 26 to approximately 16 and expand and improve our junket program. We launched our new junket operations during the three-month period ended June 30, 2013 and presently have five promoters in the program.

 

In place of the removed tables, we plan to add semi-live electronic gaming tables with approximately 30 seats, which are intended to appeal to individual players visiting the market. With our strong relationships with gaming suppliers, we intend to obtain these machines on a revenue sharing basis resulting in minimal capital investment to us. We expect these changes will be complete within the next several months.

 

Dreamworld Casino (Pailin) is constructed on land leased from a local land owner and in consideration the land owner is entitled to receive a fair monthly rental fee and 20% of the profit before depreciation (the total gross revenue of the casino less any payouts paid to customers, operating expenses, and gaming and non-gaming taxes on the casino’s revenue). The initial lease term is 20 years, commencing in September 2011 and is subject to renewal by the parties in writing.

 

The initial phase of Dreamworld Casino (Pailin) measures approximately 16,000 square feet. The local partner also owns property adjacent to Dreamworld Casino (Pailin) measuring nearly 250,000 square feet. We have an option to lease this adjacent property at a future date and use it to develop additional phases of the Dreamworld Casino (Pailin). Such additional phases would be intended to include expanded casino operations and complementary facilities such as hotel rooms, a spa and other entertainment amenities.

 

Total capital expenditures for the initial phase of Dreamworld Casino (Pailin) were approximately $2.5 million, which was paid solely by us from our internal cash resources.

 

In addition to Dreamworld Casino (Pailin), we have another casino development project in the pipeline, Dreamworld Casino (Kampot). In partnership with a local land owner, we intend to develop a small casino in the Kampot Province of Southwestern Cambodia near the Vietnam border on land owned by the local partner. Depending on demand and the availability of capital, there is the potential to add, at a future date, additional casino floor space and equipment as well as complementary facilities such as hotel rooms, a spa and other entertainment amenities.

 

The local partner will lease to us the land for a period of 25 years for an annual fee of $1. We will provide funding for all development, construction and pre-opening costs for the Dreamworld Casino (Kampot) and all necessary gaming equipment. We and the local partner will split Dreamworld Casino (Kampot)’s net revenue (the total gross revenue of the casino less any payouts paid to customers, operating expenses, and gaming and non-gaming taxes on the casino’s revenue) on a respective basis of 60%/40%. Total capital expenditures for the initial phase of Dreamworld Casino (Kampot) are projected to be approximately $1.2 million as the EGMs will be sourced from existing inventory.

 

27
 

 

The development timeline for Dreamworld Casino (Kampot) is presently under review. We may defer construction of this project until the market has demonstrated a more developed player base and previously planned infrastructure improvements in the area are in place.  

 

We also own a parcel of land with total area of approximately seven acres in the Takeo Province of Cambodia near the Vietnam border and were granted in-principle approval to build and open a casino-hotel in the Takeo Province by the Cambodian government. At the present time, we do not expect to commit significant capital to the project on this land in order to divert our available capital to the development of projects, which we believe will offer greater short and medium-term return potential. Our future development plans for this land will be dependent on our available capital and local market conditions at that time.

 

We continue to selectively pursue additional casino development projects that will enable us to expand our market presence and increase brand equity in our Dreamworld name in the Indo-China region. We seek markets that offer an established player base and projects that would provide meaningful scale to our operations. While there is no guarantee we will be successful in signing new projects, we aim to secure projects that will add meaningful scale to our gaming operations and provide the opportunity for higher net returns.

 

Gaming Products

 

During the six-month period ended June 30, 2013, we successfully completed our plans to restructure our legacy operations. On March 28, 2013, we completed the sale of the non-gaming manufacturing portion of the operations in a management-led buyout for total consideration of AUD350,000. In connection with the sale, in March 2013, we commenced the relocation of our manufacturing facilities for the gaming products portion of the business, namely gaming chips and plaques, to Hong Kong from Australia. Commercial operation of the new Hong Kong facility, which is also the new home of our corporate headquarters, began in May 2013.

 

These actions not only enabled us to exit a non-core, low-margin business but also provide the opportunity to enhance the profitability of our gaming products division through lower cost labor, elimination of redundant support functions, further automation and improved R&D capabilities, as well as to better penetrate and service the growing Asian gaming markets. In addition, it improves our ability to expand our product mix to include other gaming products, which could add incremental revenue streams and further enhance our competitive positioning.

 

We recorded one-time cash costs associated with the sale and relocation, which included severance and relocation charges, of approximately $1.3 million in the three-month period ended March 31, 2013. All incurred costs associated with the relocation have been funded from our available working capital.

 

With a quality product line, streamlined operating structure, solid existing customer base and high-security production facilities in close proximity to the growing Asian gaming markets, we believe that we have all the right and necessary elements to best serve our target markets and are poised to benefit from the major casino development anticipated over the next several years in Asia. While we anticipate continued uneven order flow on a quarter to quarter basis, our efforts are expected to result in improved recurring revenue and earnings growth potential for these operations.

   

Results of Operations for the Three-Month and Six-Month Periods Ended June 30, 2013 and 2012

 

The following is a schedule summarizing operating results on a consolidated basis and separately by each of our two operating segments, gaming operations and gaming products, for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012.

 

On February 22, 2013, we entered into a share sale agreement pursuant to which we agreed to sell the portion of our subsidiary, Dolphin Products Pty Limited (“Dolphin Australia”), business dedicated to the manufacture and sale of non-gaming plastic products, mainly automotive parts. The sale closed on March 28, 2013. All historical revenues and expenses associated with our non-gaming plastic products operations for the periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 have been reclassified as discontinued operations.

  (1) “Adjusted EBITDA” is net (loss)/income from continuing operations before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, stock-based compensation, and other non-cash operating income and expenses. Adjusted EBITDA is presented exclusively as a supplemental disclosure because our management believes that it is widely used to measure the performance, and as a basis for valuation, of gaming companies. Our management uses Adjusted EBITDA as a measure of the operating performance of its segments and to compare the operating performance of its operations with those of its competitors. We also present Adjusted EBITDA because it is used by some investors as a way to measure a company’s ability to incur and service debt, make capital expenditures and meet working capital requirements. Gaming companies have historically reported EBITDA as a supplement to financial measures in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”). Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to operating income as an indicator of our performance, as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity, or as an alternative to any other measure determined in accordance with GAAP. Unlike net income/(loss), Adjusted EBITDA does not include depreciation or interest expense and,  therefore, does not reflect current or future capital expenditures or the cost of capital. We compensate for these limitations by using Adjusted EBITDA as only one of several comparative tools, together with GAAP measurements, to assist in the evaluation of operating performance. Such GAAP measurements include operating income, net income, cash flows from operations and cash flow data. We have significant uses of cash flows, including capital expenditures, interest payments, debt principal repayments, taxes and other non-recurring charges, which are not reflected in Adjusted EBITDA. Our calculation of Adjusted EBITDA may be different from the calculation methods used by other companies and, therefore, comparability may be limited.

Total revenue decreased approximately $329,000 to $5.8 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2013 compared to approximately $6.2 million in the same period of the prior year. The decrease was due to lower revenue from the gaming products division partially offset by higher revenue from the gaming operations division. Revenue from gaming products decreased as a result of a shortened production period due to the strategic relocation of the manufacturing facilities from Australia to Hong Kong, which commenced in March 2013 and was completed in May 2013, and the initial set up of the new facility. Revenue from gaming operations increased primarily as a result of increased revenue from Dreamworld Casino (Pailin), which opened in May 2012, and incremental revenue from Dreamworld Club (Poipet), which officially opened in May 2013, partially offset by a decline in Philippines slot operations revenue.

 

Gross profit decreased approximately $929,000 to $1.6 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2013 compared to approximately $2.6 million in the same period of the prior year. The decrease was primarily due to: the gaming products division, which had lower production volumes which lowered the utilization and cost absorption of the facilities and high non-recurring costs of approximately $166,000, mainly as a result of the relocation and initial set up for the new manufacturing facilities in Hong Kong; and lower slot operations revenue in the Philippines.

 

Operating loss from continuing operations increased approximately $526,000 to a loss of $91,000 for the three-month period ended June 30, 2013 compared to operating income from continuing operations of approximately $435,000 in the same period of the prior year primarily due to the lower gross profit explained above partially offset by lower operating expenses.

 

Net loss from continuing operations increased approximately $814,000 to a loss of $385,000 compared to net income from continuing operations of approximately $429,000 in the same period of the prior year primarily as a result of the operating loss explained above and foreign currency losses, which were approximately $292,000 compared to gains of approximately $25,000 in the prior year period. Net loss increased approximately $770,000 to a loss of $286,000 compared to net income of approximately $484,000 in the same period of the prior year. The net loss for the three-month period ended June 30, 2013 included approximately $99,000 in net income from discontinued operations compared to approximately $55,000 in the prior year period.

 

Total revenue increased approximately $885,000 to $12.5 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2013 compared to approximately $11.7 million in the same period of the prior year due to revenue increases in both operating divisions. Revenue from gaming operations increased primarily as a result of increased revenue from Dreamworld Casino (Pailin) partially offset by lower revenue from slot operations (described in greater detail below). Revenue from gaming products increased as a result of increased orders from existing gaming chips and plaques customers.

 

Gross profit decreased approximately $2.1 million to $3.2 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2013 compared to approximately $5.3 million in the same period of the prior year. The decrease was primarily a result of: the gaming products division for the same reasons stated above and higher labor costs in Australia prior to the relocation of the manufacturing facilities (described in greater detail below); lower slot operations revenue from NagaWorld and the Philippines (described in greater detail below); and a higher gross margin loss for the casino operations given Dreamworld Casino (Pailin) operated for the full six-month period in 2013 compared to a less than two-month period for the same period in 2012.

 

Operating loss from continuing operations increased approximately $1.7 million to a loss of $486,000 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2013 compared to operating income from continuing operations of approximately $1.2 million in the same period of the prior year. The increase in operating loss from continuing operations was primarily a result of the lower gross profit explained above partially offset by a decrease in operating expenses.

Net loss from continuing operations increased approximately $2.0 million to a loss of $714,000 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2013 compared to net income from continuing operations of approximately $1.3 million in the same period of the prior year. The increase in net loss from continuing operations was primarily a result of the operating loss explained above and foreign currency losses of approximately $188,000 compared to gains of approximately $214,000 in the prior year period. Net loss increased approximately $4.3 million to a loss of $2.8 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2013 compared to net income of approximately $1.5 million in the same period of the prior year. The net loss for the six-month period ended June 30, 2013 included a net loss from discontinued operations of approximately $2.1 million compared to net income from discontinued operations of approximately $146,000 in the prior year period.

 

Gaming Operations

 

Revenues from gaming operations consisted of slot and casino development operations as detailed below.

Dreamworld Casino (Pailin)     58       50  
Consolidated total     1,690       1,491  

 

 

  (1) Includes Dreamworld Club (Poipet), which operates under a machine operation and participation agreement. Dreamworld Club (Poipet) soft opened on March 28, 2013 and the grand opening was on May 9, 2013.

 

  (2) Average net win figures (“WUD”) exclude EGM seats in operation during venue soft launch opening periods, if applicable, and apply revenue recognized on a cash basis in the calculation of WUD for venues for which revenues are recognized on a cash basis. During the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2013, one venue in Cambodia operated during a soft launch. Had these seats been included in the WUD calculations, WUD for the above-mentioned 2013 periods would have been $157 and $165 for Cambodia and $129 and $133 for consolidated WUD, respectively. During the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2012, one venue in Cambodia operated during a soft launch and one venue in the Philippines recognized revenue on a cash basis. There was no material difference to average WUD figures for the above-mentioned 2012 periods had these seats been included in the WUD calculations.

 

Revenue from gaming operations during the three-month period ended June 30, 2013 increased approximately $487,000 to $5.7 million compared to approximately $5.2 million in the same period of the prior year. The increase was primarily a result of incremental revenue from Dreamworld Casino (Pailin), which opened in May 2012, and incremental revenue for Dreamworld Club (Poipet), which officially opened in May 2013. The increase was partially offset by a decrease in revenue from the Philippines slot operations.

 

31
 

 

Gross profit from gaming operations decreased approximately $377,000 to $2.0 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2013 compared to approximately $2.4 million in the same period of the prior year primarily due to lower revenue from the Philippines slot operations and incremental operating expenses for Dreamworld Club (Poipet) for the three-month period ended June 30, 2013. Cost of gaming operations for the three-month period ended June 30, 2013 included approximately $1.3 million of depreciation on gaming equipment, $617,000 amortization of casino contracts, $63,000 amortization of other gaming related intangibles and $1.7 million of other operating costs, which included casino operations expenses.

 

Revenue from gaming operations increased approximately $805,000 to $11.0 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2013 compared to approximately $10.2 million in the same period of the prior year. The increase in revenue was primarily a result of incremental revenue from Dreamworld Casino (Pailin) partially offset by lower slot operations revenue. The decrease in slot operations revenue was primarily due to: lower average net win per machine from our operations in NagaWorld as a result of a weak performance in February 2013 due to an observed week-long official mourning period for the deceased former King of Cambodia at the beginning of the month and the several-day strike by NagaWorld workers at the end of the month; and lower Philippines slot operations revenue due to the lower installed machine base, higher jackpot payouts and increasing competition.

 

Gross profit from gaming operations decreased approximately $1.3 million to $3.7 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2013 compared to approximately $5.0 million in the same period of the prior year primarily due to lower revenue for the slot operations and a higher gross margin loss for the casino operations given Dreamworld Casino (Pailin) operated for the full six-month period in 2013 compared to a less than two-month period for the same period in 2012. Cost of gaming operations for the six-month period ended June 30, 2013 included approximately $2.4 million of depreciation on gaming equipment, $1.2 million of amortization of casino contracts, $126,000 of amortization of other gaming related intangibles and $3.5 million of other operating costs, which include casino operations expenses.

 

As of June 30, 2013, we had a total of 2,019 EGM seats of which 329 were held in inventory and 1,690 were in operation. Of the 1,690 EGM seats in operation, 1,120 were in four venues in Cambodia (including Dreamworld Casino (Pailin) and Dreamworld Club (Poipet)) and 570 were in three venues in the Philippines.

(1) EGMs and systems used in operations as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 included 22 and 12 EGM seats, respectively, which were in operation on a trial basis subject to achieving certain performance objectives prior to acceptance and, as a result, their carrying values were not included.

 

(2) Includes both slot operations and Dreamworld Casino (Pailin).

 

Due to our ongoing efforts to improve the returns on our slot operations, we seek to refine the existing operating machine base to focus on those venues with the greatest potential and selectively add new venues. In March 2013, we soft opened Dreamworld Club (Poipet) in Cambodia with 166 EGM seats. This venue officially opened in May 2013 with approximately 300 EGM seats. In March 2012, we soft opened Thansur Bokor in Cambodia with 87 EGM seats. This venue officially opened in May 2012 with approximately 200 EGM seats. During the period from May to July 2012, we terminated three contracts, one in Cambodia and two in the Philippines, with a combined total of 273 EGMs seats as these venues were not performing up to our expectations.

 

Revenue from the Cambodia slot operations for the three-month period ended June 30, 2013 was $4.0 million, essentially unchanged with the same period in the prior year. Average net win per machine decreased $46 to $169 for the three-month period ended June 30, 2013 compared to $215 in the same period of the prior year. The decline in average net win per machine was primarily due to the addition of EGMs in Dreamworld Club (Poipet), which officially opened in May 2013 and Thansur Bokor, which officially opened in May 2012, in the WUD calculation as these venues have relatively lower average net win per machine. Revenue from these operations decreased approximately $653,000 to $7.2 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2013 compared to approximately $7.9 million in the same period of the prior year. Average net win per machine decreased $54 to $172 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2013 compared to $226 in the same period of the prior year. The decline in average net win per machine was primarily due to the reasons stated above and lower average net win per machine for our operations in NagaWorld during the three-month period ended March 31, 2013 (as more fully described below).

Revenue from our slot operations in NagaWorld for the three-month period ended June 30, 2013 was $3.7 million, essentially unchanged with the same period in the prior year. Average net win per machine for these operations decreased $2 to $256 for the three-month period ended June 30, 2013 compared to $258 in the same period of the prior year. Revenue from our slot operations in NagaWorld decreased approximately $783,000 to $6.8 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2013 compared to approximately $7.6 million for the same period of the prior year. Average net win per machine for these operations decreased $22 to $237 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2013 compared to $259 in the same period of the prior year. The decline in revenue and average net win per machine for these operations for the six-month period ended June 30, 2103 was primarily a result of reduced player traffic in February 2013 due to an observed, week-long official mourning period for the deceased former King of Cambodia in the beginning of the month and a several-day strike by NagaWorld workers at the end of the month. While normal fluctuation occurs, with prominent ground floor locations, quality product and customer service, and proactive marketing, we believe we are well positioned to maintain strong overall performance from these operations.

 

We continue to seek means to improve our slot operations performance in Thansur Bokor Highland Resort. This resort officially opened in May 2012, however, certain aspects of the initial phase of the property, such as the entertainment complex, were not completed until early 2013. Due to our minimal operating costs at the venue, our operations in Thansur Bokor have been a positive contributor to consolidated adjusted EBITDA for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2013.

 

We held the grand opening for Dreamworld Club (Poipet) on May 9, 2013. These operations are in an early ramp-up stage and revenues have not yet normalized. In July 2013, we made solid improvement in Dreamworld Club (Poipet)’s operating performance and these operations achieved positive EBITDA. We continue to refine and expand our marketing programs and have begun building a meaningful and growing quality player base.

 

For the three-month period ended June 30, 2013, revenue from the slot operations in the Philippines decreased approximately $203,000 to $803,000 compared to $1.0 million in the same period of the prior year, while average net win per machine for these operations improved $2 to $74 compared to $72 in the prior year period mainly due to the lower installed base with better performing machines. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2013, revenue from these operations decreased approximately $330,000 to $1.7 million compared to approximately $2.1 million in the same period of the prior year, while average net win per machine improved $7 to $80 compared to $73 in the same period of the prior year for the same reasons as stated above.

 

We continue our efforts to improve overall returns for our operations in the Philippines. These efforts include: implementing, with the support of our venue owner partners, targeted marketing programs and proactive machine mix management. With increasing competition from the development of major integrated casino resorts in Manila, we are focused on improving player loyalty through marketing programs and providing a wide range of preferred gaming machines and superior services to the local customer bases.

 

Dreamworld Casino (Pailin), which opened in May 2012, contributed approximately $907,000 to gaming operations revenue for the three-month period ended June 30, 2013, down from $1.1 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2013. The decline was due to decreased player traffic levels during the quarter. Operating costs for Dreamworld Casino (Pailin) were approximately $1.2 million during the three-month period ended June 30, 2013, down from $1.3 million in the prior sequential quarter. The decline was due to lower levels of quality player traffic and cost reduction initiatives.

 

We are focused on improving the financial performance of Dreamworld Casino (Pailin). After thorough analysis of the operating results and market trends, we have formulated a new operating plan we believe will better capitalize on market conditions and substantially reduce operating expenses. The new strategy entails a shift in primary focus to the VIP market and expanding and improving the junket program. We intend to reduce the total number of tables in operation from 26 to approximately 16. In place of the removed tables, we plan to add semi-live electronic gaming tables with approximately 30 seats, which are intended to appeal to individual players visiting the market. With our strong relationships with gaming suppliers, we intend to obtain these machines on a revenue sharing basis resulting in minimal capital investment. We expect these changes will be completed within the next several months.

Gaming Products

 

Gaming products revenue, which consisted of gaming chips and plaques sales, decreased approximately $816,000 to $162,000 for the three-month period ended June 30, 2013 compared to approximately $978,000 in the same period of the prior year. The decrease was mainly a result of lower production levels due to the strategic relocation of the manufacturing facilities from Australia to Hong Kong and the initial set up at the new location. The relocation of equipment commenced in March 2013 and was completed in May 2013.

 

Gross margin loss on gaming products increased approximately $552,000 to $384,000 for the three-month period ended June 30, 2013 compared to gross profit of approximately $168,000 in the same period of the prior year. The increase in gross margin loss was mainly due to the relocation and set up of the manufacturing facilities, which resulted in lower production volumes and utilization and cost absorption of the facilities and high non-recurring costs of approximately $166,000, including consultants, personnel training and manning costs associated with trial runs and equipment installation, for the three-month period ended June 30, 2013.

 

Gaming products revenue increased approximately $80,000 to $1.6 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2013 compared to approximately $1.5 million in the same period of the prior year mainly as a result of higher reorders from existing customers.

 

Gross margin loss on gaming products increased approximately $731,000 to a loss of $452,000 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2013 compared to gross profit of approximately $279,000 in the same period of the prior year. The increase in gross margin loss was mainly due to the reasons stated above and higher labor costs in the three-month period ended March 31, 2013 as a result of increased overtime by the Australian workers due to the expedited fulfillment of orders ahead of the relocation of the plant and absenteeism following the announcement of the relocation of the gaming products business.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

 

Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased approximately $197,000 to $1.4 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2013 compared to $1.6 million in the same period of the prior year. For the three-month period ended June 30, 2013, consulting, accounting, travel and entertainment expenses decreased approximately $125,000 mainly as a result of lower fees for new and completed projects and decreased traveling required in relation to the new gaming projects. Legal, investor relations, utilities, printing and other expenses decreased approximately $120,000 primarily due to fewer gaming projects and various cost reduction initiatives. Sales commission decreased approximately $50,000 primarily due to lower gaming products sales. These decreases were partially offset by increases in salaries and wages, insurance, rent, and other expenses, which increased approximately $98,000 primarily due to the increased scale of operations and headcount for the gaming operations and gaming products divisions.

 

Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased approximately $165,000 to $3.1 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2013 compared to $3.2 million in the same period of the prior year. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2013, consulting, accounting, travel and entertainment expenses decreased approximately $186,000 mainly as a result of lower fees for new and completed projects and decreased traveling required in relation to the new gaming projects. Legal, investor relations, salaries and wages, utilities, printing and other expenses decreased approximately $196,000 primarily due to fewer gaming projects and various cost reduction initiatives. These decreases were partially offset by increases in insurance, rent, and other expenses, which increased approximately $217,000 primarily due to increased scale of operations and headcount for the gaming operations and gaming products divisions.

Stock-Based Compensation Expense

 

Stock-based compensation expense decreased approximately $89,000 to $198,000 for the three-month period ended June 30, 2013 compared to $287,000 in the prior year period primarily due to a decrease in fair value of stock prices during the three-month period ended June 30, 2013 as compared to the prior year period.

 

Stock-based compensation expense decreased approximately $107,000 to $445,000 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2013 compared to $552,000 in the same period of the prior year primarily due to the same reason stated above.

 

Gain on Disposition of Assets

 

There was no disposition of assets for the three-month period ended June 30, 2013. Gain on disposition of assets was $17,000 for the three-month period ended June 30, 2012, which related to the sale of non-performing EGMs and systems during the period.

 

There was no disposition of assets for the six-month period ended June 30, 2013. Gain on disposition of assets was $29,000 in the same period of the prior year primarily due to the same reason as stated above.

 

Product Development Expenses

 

Product development expenses decreased approximately $51,000 to $35,000 for the three-month period ended June 30, 2013 compared to $86,000 in the prior year period primarily due to lower development activities during the relocation on the gaming products manufacturing facilities.

 

Product development expenses decreased approximately $31,000 to $155,000 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2013 compared to approximately $186,000 in the same period of the prior year for the same reason as stated above.

 

Depreciation and Amortization Expenses

 

Total depreciation and amortization expenses decreased approximately $12,000 to $47,000 for the three-month period ended June 30, 2013 compared to approximately $59,000 in the prior year period primarily as a result of an increase in fully depreciated fixed assets for gaming operations.

 

Total depreciation and amortization expenses decreased by approximately $13,000 to $77,000 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2013 compared to approximately $90,000 in the same period of the prior year for the same reason as stated above.

 

Impairment of Assets

 

There were no impairment of assets for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2013 compared to $71,000 in the same periods of the prior year primarily as a result of the impairment of non-redeployable EGMs related to the closure of non-performing venues during the three-month period ended June 30, 2012.

Interest Expense and Finance Fees

 

Interest expense and finance fees decreased approximately $35,000 to $1,000 for the three-month period ended June 30, 2013 compared to approximately $36,000 in the same period of the prior year primarily due to the full repayment of notes payable to a related party in December 2012.

 

Interest expense and finance fees decreased approximately $84,000 to $5,000 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2013 compared to approximately $89,000 in the same period of the prior year for the same reason as stated above.

 

Interest Income

 

Interest income decreased approximately $14,000 to $NIL for the three-month period ended June 30, 2013 compared to approximately $14,000 in the same period of the prior year primarily as a result of lower bank balances.

 

Interest income decreased approximately $22,000 to $4,000 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2013 compared to approximately $26,000 in the same period of the prior year for the same reason as stated above.

 

Foreign Currency Transactions

 

Foreign currency losses increased approximately $317,000 to $292,000 for the three-month period ended June 30, 2013 compared to gains of approximately $25,000 for the same period in the prior year. The increase was primarily due to the comparatively higher percentage appreciation in the value of U.S. dollar denominated payables from the Philippines operations, whose functional currency is the Philippine peso. In addition, the U.S. dollar appreciated during the three-month period ended June 30, 2013 compared to: the Australian dollar, which resulted in an exchange loss from other receivables settlement associated with the sale of the non-gaming Dolphin Australia assets, whose functional currency is the Australian dollar; and the Thai baht, which resulted in an exchange loss for the Cambodia operations’ baht cage holdings.

 

Foreign currency losses increased approximately $402,000 to $188,000 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2013 compared to gains of approximately $214,000 for the same period in the prior year for the same reasons as stated above.

 

Other

 

Other income decreased approximately $19,000 to $7,000 for the three-month period ended June 30, 2013 compared to $26,000 in the prior year period primarily due to miscellaneous income received by Australia operations in the three-month period ended June 30, 2012.

 

Other income decreased approximately $16,000 to $10,000 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2013 compared to approximately $26,000 in the prior year period primarily due to the same reason as stated above.

 

Income Tax Provisions

 

Effective tax rates were approximately (2.0)% and 7.6% and (7.3)% and 6.4% for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. We continue to review the treatment of tax losses and future income generated by foreign subsidiaries to minimize taxation costs.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of June 30, 2013, we had total cash and cash equivalents of approximately $4.8 million and working capital of approximately $4.5 million. Our cash and working capital during the six-month period ended June 30, 2013 was positively impacted by the cash received from slot operations but was negatively impacted by expenses associated with casino and gaming development projects, including the construction and opening of Dreamworld Club (Poipet), the purchase of EGMs for gaming operations and the relocation of Dolphin gaming chips and plaques operations from Australia to Hong Kong.

 

36
 

 

Total capital expenditure for Dreamworld Club (Poipet), which principally included the development and construction of the facility and approximately $5.0 million for gaming equipment, totaled approximately $7.5 million. Of the $7.5 million total expenditure for Dreamworld Club (Poipet), we incurred approximately $7.1 million as of June 30, 2013.

 

As part of our growth strategy for gaming operations, we expect to purchase EGMs to supplement existing inventory and source future targeted deployment plans. Our current casino and gaming development plans for the remainder of 2013 include the refocusing of the Dreamworld Casino (Pailin) operations.

 

As part of our growth strategy for gaming products, we intend to incur costs related to enhancing production efficiencies for these operations. Our current plans for the remainder of 2013 include the purchase of new equipment that provides for increased production capacity and automation.

 

We also continue to pursue other new gaming projects, however, there is no guarantee we will successfully secure any of these new projects.

 

We presently expect that our capital expenditures for the remainder of 2013 based on our current contractual commitments will be approximately $1.5 to $2.0 million. This includes: approximately $600,000 to $900,000 for the slot operations including EGM purchases, upgrades, and general maintenance; $900,000 to $1.0 million for equipment and systems purchases and general maintenance for the gaming products facility and less than $100,000 for the refocusing of the Dreamworld Casino (Pailin) operations.

 

We anticipate our available working capital, along with cash expected to be generated from operations, will allow us to meet our capital expenditure needs for the remainder of 2013.

 

As noted above, however, we continue to pursue additional casino and gaming projects. While there is no guarantee we will be successful in securing new projects, if we were to secure new projects our capital expenditures for the remainder of 2013 would increase beyond the $1.5 to $2.0 million currently contemplated. At this time, we are unable to predict the amount of additional capital expenditures that could be required in 2013 for such potential projects. Where possible, we intend to fund our casino and gaming projects from our cash flow from operations and cash on hand. Further, we will seek to structure the development of these projects in phases to better control and pace the related expenditure of capital. However, should we commit to large projects, to the concurrent development of multiple casinos and gaming projects or a new project requires large upfront payments, we may need to acquire additional capital. We would endeavor to obtain any required additional capital from various financing sources including commercial debt financing and the sale of our debt or equity securities. However, there are no commitments or arrangements in place as of the date of this report for receipt of additional capital and there is no assurance we will be able to acquire additional capital if, and when, needed on commercially reasonable terms or at all.

Operations

 

Cash provided by operations was approximately $1.6 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2013 compared to $6.0 million in the same period of the prior year. The decrease in cash provided by operations was primarily due to a decrease of approximately $1.0 million in slot operations revenue, initial start-up costs for Dolphin Hong Kong and one-off costs, including severance, relocation charges and contract termination fees, of approximately $1.3 million associated with the sale of the non-gaming products assets and relocation of the gaming chips and plaques operations from Australia to Hong Kong in the six-month period ended June 30, 2013. All of the $1.3 million in one-off costs associated with the sale of the non-gaming products assets and relocation of the gaming chips and plaques operations were incurred in the three-month period ended March 31, 2013. In addition, there was a general reduction in working capital of approximately $1.0 million as part of the settlement in payable balances related to the sale of the Dolphin non-gaming assets.

 

Investing

 

Cash used in investing activities was approximately $7.2 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2013 compared to approximately $3.8 million in the same period of the prior year. The increase in cash used in investing activities was mainly a result of the capital expenditures related to the construction of Dreamworld Club (Poipet), the new factory renovation and purchase of equipment for the new gaming products manufacturing facility and the purchase of a greater amount of EGMs and related systems in the six-month period of ended June 30, 2013.

 

Financing

 

Cash used in financing activities was $NIL for the six-month period ended June 30, 2013 compared to approximately $3.2 million in the same period of the prior year. The decrease in cash used in financing activities was primarily a result of the full repayment of the notes payable to EGT Entertainment Holding (see Note 13) in December 2012.

 

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

 

Our consolidated financial statements were prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Accordingly, we are required to make estimates incorporating judgments and assumptions we believe are reasonable based on our historical experience, contract terms, observance of known trends in our Company and the industry as a whole, as well as information available from other outside sources. Our estimates affect amounts recorded in the financial statements and actual results may differ from initial estimates.

 

We consider the following accounting estimates to be the most critical to fully understanding and evaluating our reported financial results. They require us to make subjective or complex judgments about matters that are inherently uncertain or variable. Senior management has discussed the development, selection and disclosure of the following accounting estimates, particularly those considered most sensitive to changes from external factors, with the audit committee of our board of directors.

 

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts Receivable

 

As of June 30, 2013, we had net accounts receivable of approximately $404,000, representing 1% of total assets. We specifically analyze the collectability of each account based upon the age of the account, the customer’s financial condition, collection history and any other known information, and we provide specific allowance to aged account balances. Revenue is recognized on a cash basis for customers with doubtful accounts receivable. Our allowance for doubtful accounts receivable was approximately $3,000 and $15,000 as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012.

 

Inventory

 

The determination of obsolete or excess inventory requires us to estimate the future demand for our products within specific time horizons, generally one year or less. If we experience a significant unexpected decrease in demand for our products or a higher occurrence of inventory obsolescence because of changes in technology or customer requirements, we could be required to increase our inventory provisions.

 

Gaming Equipment and Property and Equipment

 

As of June 30, 2013, we had gaming equipment and property and equipment of approximately $18.6 million, representing 50% of total assets. We depreciate gaming equipment and property and equipment on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. The estimated useful lives are based on the nature of the assets as well as the current operating strategy and legal considerations such as contractual life. Future events, such as property expansions, property developments, trends in market demand, new competition, or technology obsolescence, could result in a change in the manner in which we use certain assets and require a change in the estimated useful lives of such assets.

 

38
 

 

For assets to be held and used, they are reviewed for impairment whenever indicators of impairment exist. If an indicator of impairment exists, we first group assets at the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other assets and liabilities (the “asset group”). Secondly, we estimate the undiscounted future cash flows that are directly associated with and expected to arise from the use and eventual disposition of such asset group. If the undiscounted cash flows exceed the carrying value, no impairment is indicated. If the undiscounted cash flows do not exceed the carrying value, then an impairment is measured based on fair value compared to carrying value, with fair value typically based on a discounted cash flow model.

 

To estimate the undiscounted cash flows of an asset group, we consider potential cash flows scenarios based on management’s estimates given current conditions. Determining the recoverability of our asset groups is judgmental in nature and requires the use of significant estimates and assumptions, including estimated cash flows, growth rates and future market conditions, among others. Future changes to our estimates and assumptions based upon changes in macro-economic factors, regulatory environments, operating results or management’s intentions may result in future changes to the recoverability of the asset group.

 

Goodwill and Intangible Assets, including Casino Contracts

 

As of June 30, 2013, we had intangible assets, including goodwill and casino contracts of $8.1 million, representing 22% of total assets.

 

Goodwill is not subject to amortization and is tested for impairment and recoverability annually or more frequently if events or circumstances indicate that the assets might be impaired. The impairment test consists of a comparison of its fair value with its carrying amount. If the carrying amount is not recoverable and exceeds its fair value, an impairment will be recognized in an amount equal to that excess. If its carrying amount does not exceed the fair value, no impairment is recognized.

 

Finite-lived intangible assets, including casino contracts are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. The estimated useful lives are based on the nature of the assets as well as legal considerations such as contractual life. Future events, such as technology obsolescence could result in a change in the manner in which we use the assets and require a change in the estimated useful lives of such assets. Finite-lived intangible assets, including casino contracts are tested for impairment and recoverability when there are indicators of impairment. The impairment test consists of a comparison of its fair value with its carrying amount. If the carrying amount is not recoverable and exceeds its fair value, an impairment will be recognized in an amount equal to that excess. If its carrying amount does not exceed the fair value, no impairment is recognized.

 

As of June 30, 2013, we had casino contracts and gaming operation agreement of $7.4 million, representing 92% of total intangible assets. The fair value of our casino contracts and gaming operation agreement was estimated using a form of the income approach known as the excess earnings method, excess earnings were discounted to present value at rates commensurate with our capital structure and the prevailing borrowing rates within the industry in general. Determining the fair value of the casino contracts and gaming operation agreement is judgmental in nature and requires the use of significant estimates and assumptions, including revenue, operating expenses, growth rates, discount rates and future market conditions, among others. Future changes to our estimates and assumptions based upon changes in macro-economic factors, operating results or management’s intentions may result in future changes to the fair value of the casino contracts and gaming operation agreement.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

We apply ASC 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation , to account for stock-based compensation. Under the fair value recognition provisions of ASC 718, we recognize stock-based compensation expense for all service-based awards to employees and non-employee directors with graded vesting schedules on the straight-line basis over the requisite service period for the entire award. Estimates are revised if subsequent information indicates that forfeitures will differ from previous estimates, and the cumulative effect on compensation costs of a change in the estimated forfeitures is recognized in the period of the change. For non-employee awards, we remeasure compensation costs each period until the service condition is complete and recognize compensation costs on the straight-line basis over the requisite service period.  Option valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions, and changes in the assumptions used can materially affect the fair value estimate. Judgment is required in estimating stock price volatility, forfeiture rates, expected dividends, and expected terms that options remain outstanding. For restricted stock awards with performance conditions, the Company evaluates if performance conditions are probable in each reporting period. The compensation expense of restricted awards is recognized ratably over the implicit service period if achieving performance conditions is probable. Initial accruals of compensation expense are based on the estimated number of shares for which requisite service is expected to be rendered.

Stock-based compensation expense totaled approximately $198,000 and $287,000 and $445,000 and $552,000 for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, in the accompanying consolidated statements of comprehensive income.

 

Income Taxes

 

We are subject to income taxes in the U.S. (including federal and state) and several foreign jurisdictions in which we operate. We record income taxes under the asset and liability method, whereby deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized based on the future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases, and attributable to operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Accounting standards regarding income taxes requires a reduction of the carrying amounts of deferred tax assets by a valuation allowance, if based on the available evidence it is “more-likely-than-not” that such assets will not be realized. Accordingly, the need to establish valuation allowances for deferred tax assets is assessed at each reporting period based on a “more-likely-than-not” realization threshold. This assessment considers, among other matters, the nature, frequency and severity of current and cumulative losses, forecasts of future profitability, the duration of statutory carryforward periods, our experience with operating loss and tax credit carryforwards not expiring, and implementation of tax planning strategies.

 

We recorded a valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that is believed more likely than not to be realized. Management will reassess the realization of deferred tax assets based on the applicable accounting standards for income taxes each reporting period and consider the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, sources of taxable income and tax planning strategies. To the extent that the financial results of these operations improve and it becomes “more-likely-than-not” that the deferred tax assets are realizable, we will be able to reduce the valuation allowance. For valuation allowance related to deferred tax assets generated prior to Quasi-Reorganization, which was effected on December 31, 2010, reductions in the valuation allowance will be recorded directly in equity.

 

Significant judgment is required in evaluating our tax positions and determining our provision for income taxes. During the ordinary course of business, there are many transactions for which the tax treatment is uncertain. Accounting standards regarding uncertainty in income taxes provides a two-step approach to recognizing and measuring uncertain tax positions. The first step is to evaluate the tax position for recognition by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates it is “more-likely-than-not” that the position will be sustained on audit, including resolution of related appeals or litigation processes, if any. The second step is to measure the tax benefit as the largest amount which is more than 50% likely, based solely on the technical merits, of being sustained on examinations. We consider many factors when evaluating and estimating our tax positions and tax benefits, which may require periodic adjustments and which may not accurately anticipate actual outcomes. We recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits in the provision of income taxes in the statements of comprehensive income.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

 

In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-02, Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income . The amendments do not change the current requirements for reporting net income or other comprehensive income in financial statements. However, the amendments require an entity to provide information about the amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by component. In addition, an entity is required to present, either on the face of the statement when net income is presented or in the notes, significant amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by the respective line items of net income but only if the amount reclassified is required under U.S. GAAP to be reclassified to net income in its entirety in the same reporting period. For public entities, the amendments are effective prospectively for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2012. The adoption of ASU 2013-02 did not have a significant effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
