ASIA INC. REPORTS SECOND QUARTER 2015 RESULTS
- Company Achieves Profitability for
the Second Quarter of 2015 Driven by
Improvements in Both Business Divisions
–
Hong Kong – August 6, 2015 –
Entertainment Gaming Asia Inc. (NASDAQ: EGT) (“Entertainment Gaming Asia” or “the Company”), a gaming company
focused on emerging gaming markets in Pan-Asia, today reported operating results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2015 and
reviewed recent corporate progress.
Key Financial Metrics
| · | Consolidated revenues of $7.6 million
for the second quarter of 2015 |
| · | Adjusted EBITDA (earnings from continuing
operations before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and non-cash charges) of $3.3 million for the second quarter of 2015 |
| · | Net income of $1.5 million for the second
quarter of 2015 |
| · | Cash balance of $24.6 million and zero
debt as of June 30, 2015 |
Second Quarter of 2015 Financial Performance
All historical revenues and expenses
associated with Dreamworld Pailin, which ceased operation in June 2014, have been reclassified as discontinued operations for the
presented periods. Historical share amounts have been proportionally adjusted to reflect the impact of the Company’s 1:4
reverse stock split effected on February 26, 2015 for the presented periods.
The Company’s second quarter of 2015
consolidated revenue was $7.6 million, an increase of 54% compared to $4.9 million in the second quarter of 2014 due to increases
in both the gaming operations and gaming products business divisions.
Gaming operations revenue was $4.9 million
for the second quarter of 2015, an increase of 11% compared to $4.4 million in the second quarter of 2014 due to improvement in
the Cambodia operations partially offset by a decline in the Philippines operations. Average consolidated daily net win per unit
was $131 for the second quarter of 2015, an increase of 17% compared to $112 in the second quarter of 2014 due to the higher revenue
and a slight reduction of machine seats in operation during the second quarter of 2015.
Cambodia average daily net win per unit
was $165 for the second quarter of 2015, an increase of 27% compared to $130 in the prior year period primarily due to improved
performance at NagaWorld. NagaWorld average daily net win per unit increased to $248 for the second quarter of 2015 compared to
$203 in the prior year period primarily due to an increase in VIP player traffic.

Philippines average daily net win per unit
was $65 for the second quarter of 2015, a decrease of 14% compared to $76 in the prior year period. The decrease was primarily
due to increased competition from new integrated casino resorts in Manila, one of which opened in March 2013 and another which
soft opened in December 2014. While Philippines average daily net win per unit declined on a year-over-year basis, it has remained
relatively stable in recent quarters as the Company continues its proactive marketing strategies in efforts to stabilize performance
in the increasingly competitive landscape.
Revenue from gaming products was $2.7 million
for the second quarter of 2015 compared to $524,000 in the second quarter of 2014. The increase was primarily a result of higher
sales of gaming chips and plaques due to strong reorder levels from existing customers. The Company achieved a gross profit of
$395,000 for this division for the second quarter of 2015 compared to a gross margin loss of $401,000 in the prior year period.
The gross margin increase was primarily due to higher production volumes and continued efforts to improve production efficiencies.
Selling, general and administrative, or
SG&A, expenses were $1.3 million for the second quarter of 2015 compared to $1.1 million in the second quarter of 2014.
The lower expenses in the second quarter of 2014 were mainly due to a reversal of a previously accrued one-time other tax liability
of $485,000 related to the Philippines operations. Excluding this benefit to the second quarter of 2014, SG&A expenses for
the second quarter of 2015 declined $280,000 compared to the prior year period, which was primarily due to cost control efforts.
Entertainment Gaming Asia reported adjusted
EBITDA of $3.3 million in the second quarter of 2015 compared to $2.1 million in the second quarter of 2014.
The Company reported net income of $1.5
million, or $0.10 per share, on a weighted average diluted share count of 14.5 million shares for the second quarter of 2015. This
compared to a net loss of $22,000, or breakeven per share, on a weighted average diluted share count of 7.5 million shares for
the second quarter of 2014. The second quarter of 2014 net loss included a net loss of $239,000 from discontinued operations related
to Dreamworld Pailin. Excluding the discontinued operations, the Company reported net income from continuing operations of $217,000,
or $0.03 per share, for the second quarter of 2014.
Clarence Chung, Chairman and Chief Executive
Officer of Entertainment Gaming Asia, commented, “We are pleased to report that the strong top and bottom-line year-over-year
improvement achieved in the first quarter continued in the second quarter of 2015. The primary drivers of our performance were
the significant improvements in gaming products sales and gross margin as well as the growth in gaming operations revenue. Gaming
products benefitted from an attractive reorder pipeline from existing customers and our efforts to improve profitability while
growth in gaming operations was largely due to strong performance from NagaWorld.
“We are focused on continuing to
improve our operating performance. Through proactive marketing and machine management, we aim to maximize performance and return
potential for our slot operations. For gaming products, we continue efforts to expand our market presence and build on our present
confirmed order pipeline of $4.5 million for the second half of 2015.
“In addition, we are actively pursuing
new projects that would drive long-term growth for the Company. With over $24.0 million in net cash and the benefits of being an
indirect, majority-owned subsidiary of Melco International Development Limited, we believe we have greatly improved our ability
to secure new projects that could enhance our existing operations and provide the opportunity to expand into new businesses and
markets.”

Adjusted EBITDA is earnings 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 management believes that it is widely used to measure the performance,
and as a basis for valuation, of gaming companies. 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. The Company also presents
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 the Company’s 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. The Company compensates 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/(loss), cash flows from operations and cash
flow data. The Company has 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. Entertainment Gaming Asia’s calculation
of Adjusted EBITDA may be different from the calculation methods used by other companies and, therefore, comparability may be limited.
