- ARPDAU of $0.80, up 16% YoY -

- Average MPU of 0.6 Million, up 11% YoY -

Outpaced the Social Casino Market While Maintaining Elevated AMRPPU of $95.45, the 10th Consecutive Quarter Above $90

Returned $28 Million of Capital to Shareholders to Date Through Share Repurchases(1), Representing 47% of Total Authorization

SciPlay Corporation (NASDAQ: SCPL) (“SciPlay” or the “Company”) today reported results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2022.

Josh Wilson, Chief Executive Officer of SciPlay, commented, “SciPlay achieved record revenue and strong profitability in the third quarter. We outperformed the overall social casino market for the second consecutive quarter. SciPlay’s durable growth is the direct result of our long-term strategy, strategic investments and strong execution on our operating plan.”

“We’ve continued to enhance monetization and achieved multiple quarterly records fueled by our evergreen social casino franchises, demonstrating their longevity and ability to drive sustainable growth. With our investments, we are delivering better gaming content and experiences than ever before, deepening players’ engagement and boosting player life-time value.”

“Our strategic investments, including in the SciPlay Engine and our upcoming direct-to-consumer platform, will enhance our ability to drive growth and long-term margin expansion as we continue to scale ARPDAU and take a competitive leap in the current business environment. Given our strong performance this quarter, we are maintaining our full year 2022 revenue growth and AEBITDA margin(2) targets. We see an unparalleled combination of opportunities to grow and scale our business over the long-term and drive increased shareholder value.”

Daniel O'Quinn, Interim Chief Financial Officer of SciPlay, added "The records we achieved this quarter were the result of the strong execution from our teams and our continuing focus on great content and engaging our players. We also made significant progress advancing our capital allocation priorities, including investing in our core capabilities to fuel long-term growth while also buying stock under our share repurchase program. To date, we have repurchased approximately $28 million(1) or nearly half of the total program authorization in the first five months. We have a strong balance sheet, with ample liquidity, and anticipate continuing to repurchase our shares given the compelling value."

Third Quarter 2022 Financial Highlights

  • Revenue was $170.8 million, up 17% from the prior year period, achieving a new quarterly record, reflecting strong social casino performance and the full quarter contribution from Alictus.
  • Net income was $33.7 million compared to $37.0 million in the prior year period due to higher operating expenses. This was primarily driven by a $14.9 million increase in marketing spend, an $8.6 million increase in personnel costs including stock-based compensation, and a $4.5 million increase in depreciation and amortization expense, partially offset by a 17% revenue growth and lower legal expense. Net income margin was 19.7% for the quarter.
  • AEBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure defined at the end of this release, was $42.8 million compared to $44.7 million in the prior year period, primarily reflecting higher revenues more than offset by the increased expense for marketing innovation initiatives, investments in our SciPlay Engine, and investments to build out a direct to consumer platform, which is expected to support future growth and margin expansion. AEBITDA margin, a non-GAAP financial measure defined at the end of this release, was 25.1% for the quarter.
  • Net cash provided by operating activities was $21.0 million, a $37.0 million decrease over the prior year period, primarily driven by the payment of the $24.5 million legal settlement (previously accrued), and an unfavorable change in working capital due to the timing of platform collections.
  • Cash and cash equivalents decreased by $65.2 million to $299.2 million from the fourth quarter of 2021, primarily reflecting $107.9 million in cash consideration for the Alictus acquisition, $26.8 million in TRA payments and related distributions to Light & Wonder, Inc., $24.5 million legal settlement payment, and $18.2 million in share repurchases, partially offset by $95.2 million cash flow from operations during the first three quarters.

Third Quarter Key Performance Highlights

  • Jackpot Party Casino® achieved a quarterly record revenue.
  • Quick Hit Slots® achieved third consecutive quarterly revenue record.
  • Payer conversion rate set a new record of 9.7% validating our continued payer focus and live-ops strategy to drive increased monetization.
  • Average Monthly Paying Users (MPU) increased to 0.6 million compared to 0.5 million in the prior year period, a new record.
  • Average Monthly Revenue Per Paying User (AMRPPU) maintained elevated levels with 10th consecutive quarter above $90.
  • Average Revenue Per Daily Active User (ARPDAU) was up 16% to a record $0.80 compared to $0.69 in the prior year period.
  • Mobile penetration increased 1% from the prior year period to 90%.

Forward-Looking Statements

Throughout this press release, we make “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements describe future expectations, plans, results or strategies and can often be identified by the use of terminology such as “may,” “will,” “estimate,” “intend,” “plan,” “continue,” “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “target,” “should,” “could,” “potential,” “opportunity,” “goal,” or similar terminology. These statements are based upon management’s current expectations, assumptions and estimates and are not guarantees of timing, future results or performance. Therefore, you should not rely on any of these forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. Actual results may differ materially from those contemplated in these statements due to a variety of risks and uncertainties and other factors, including, among other things:

  • the continuing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and any resulting social, political, economic and financial complications;
  • our ability to attract and retain players;
  • expectations of growth in total consumer spending on social gaming, including social casino gaming;
  • our reliance on third-party platforms and our ability to track data on those platforms;
  • our ability to continue to launch and enhance games that attract and retain a significant number of paying players;
  • our ability to expand in international markets;
  • our reliance on a small percentage of our players for nearly all of our revenue;
  • our ability to adapt to, and offer games that keep pace with, changing technology and evolving industry standards;
  • competition;
  • our dependence on the optional purchases of coins, chips and cards to supplement the availability of periodically offered free coins, chips and cards;
  • our ability to access additional financing and restrictions and covenants in debt agreements, including those that could result in acceleration of the maturity of our indebtedness;
  • the discontinuation or replacement of LIBOR, which may adversely affect interest rates;
  • fluctuations in our results due to seasonality and other factors;
  • dependence on skilled employees with creative and technical backgrounds;
  • our ability to use the intellectual property rights of Light & Wonder, Inc. ("Light & Wonder" and "Parent") and other third parties, including the third-party intellectual property rights licensed to Light & Wonder, under our intellectual property license agreement with our Parent;
  • protection of our proprietary information and intellectual property, inability to license third-party intellectual property and the intellectual property rights of others;
  • security and integrity of our games and systems;
  • security breaches, cyber-attacks or other privacy or data security incidents, challenges or disruptions;
  • reliance on or failures in information technology and other systems;
  • loss of revenue due to unauthorized methods of playing our games;
  • the impact of legal and regulatory restrictions on our business, including significant opposition in some jurisdictions to interactive social gaming, including social casino gaming, and how such opposition could lead these jurisdictions to adopt legislation or impose a regulatory framework to govern interactive social gaming or social casino gaming specifically, and how this could result in a prohibition on interactive social gaming or social casino gaming altogether, restrict our ability to advertise our games, or substantially increase our costs to comply with these regulations;
  • laws and government regulations, both foreign and domestic, including those relating to our Parent and to data privacy and security, including with respect to the collection, storage, use, transmission, sharing and protection of personal information and other consumer data, and those laws and regulations that affect companies conducting business on the internet, including ours;
  • the continuing evolution of the scope of data privacy and security regulations, and our belief that the adoption of increasingly restrictive regulations in this area is likely within the U.S. and other jurisdictions;
  • risks related to foreign operations, including the complexity of foreign laws, regulations and markets; the uncertainty of enforcement of remedies in foreign jurisdictions; the effect of currency exchange rate fluctuations; the impact of foreign labor laws and disputes; the ability to attract and retain key personnel in foreign jurisdictions; the economic, tax and regulatory policies of local governments; and compliance with applicable anti-money laundering, anti-bribery and anti-corruption laws;
  • influence of certain stockholders, including decisions that may conflict with the interests of other stockholders;
  • our ability to achieve some or all of the anticipated benefits of being a standalone public company;
  • our dependence on distributions from SciPlay Parent Company, LLC to pay our taxes and expenses, including substantial payments we will be required to make under the Tax Receivable Agreement (the “TRA”);
  • failure to establish and maintain adequate internal control over financial reporting;
  • stock price volatility;
  • litigation and other liabilities relating to our business, including litigation and liabilities relating to consumer protection, gambling-related matters, employee matters, alleged service and system malfunctions, alleged intellectual property infringement and claims relating to our contracts, licenses and strategic investments;
  • our ability to complete acquisitions and integrate businesses successfully;
  • our ability to pursue and execute new business initiatives;
  • our expectations of future growth that will place significant demands on our management and operations;
  • natural events and health crises that disrupt our operations or those of our providers or suppliers;
  • changes in tax laws or tax rulings, or the examination of our tax positions;
  • levels of insurance coverage against claims;
  • our dependence on certain key providers; and
  • U.S. and international economic and industry conditions.

Additional information regarding risks and uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contemplated in forward-looking statements is included from time to time in our filings with the SEC, including the Company's current reports on Form 8-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and annual reports on Form 10-K, including the latest annual report filed with the SEC on March 2, 2022 ("2021 Form 10-K") (including under the headings "Forward Looking Statements" and "Risk Factors"). Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made and, except for our ongoing obligations under the U.S. federal securities laws, we undertake no and expressly disclaim any obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

This press release may contain references to industry market data and certain industry forecasts. Industry market data and industry forecasts are obtained from publicly available information and industry publications. Industry publications generally state that the information contained therein has been obtained from sources believed to be reliable, but that the accuracy and completeness of that information is not guaranteed. Although we believe industry information to be accurate, it is not independently verified by us and we do not make any representation as to the accuracy of that information. In general, we believe there is less publicly available information concerning international social gaming industries than the same industries in the U.S. Some data is also based on our good faith estimates, which are derived from our review of internal surveys or data, as well as the independent sources referenced above. Assumptions and estimates of our and our industry's future performance are necessarily subject to a high degree of uncertainty and risk due to a variety of factors, including those described under “Risk Factors” in Part II, Item 1A of our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Part I, Item 1A “Risk Factors” in our 2021 Form 10-K. These and other factors could cause future performance to differ materially from our assumptions and estimates.

Due to rounding, certain numbers presented herein may not precisely recalculate.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted EBITDA, or AEBITDA, as used herein, is a non-GAAP financial measure that is presented as supplemental disclosure and is reconciled to net income attributable to SciPlay as the most directly comparable GAAP measure as set forth in the above table. We define AEBITDA to include net income attributable to SciPlay before: (1) net income attributable to noncontrolling interest; (2) interest expense; (3) income tax expense; (4) depreciation and amortization; (5) restructuring and other, which includes charges or expenses attributable to: (a) employee severance; (b) management changes; (c) restructuring and integration; (d) M&A and other, which includes: (i) M&A transaction costs; (ii) purchase accounting adjustments (including contingent acquisition consideration); (iii) unusual items (including legal settlements related to major litigation) and (iv) other non-cash items; and (e) cost-savings initiatives; (6) stock-based compensation; (7) loss (gain) on debt financing transactions; and (8) other expense (income) including foreign currency (gains) and losses. We also use AEBITDA margin, a non-GAAP measure, which we calculate as AEBITDA as a percentage of revenue.

Our management uses AEBITDA and AEBITDA margin to, among other things: (i) monitor and evaluate the performance of our business operations; (ii) facilitate our management’s internal comparisons of our historical operating performance and (iii) analyze and evaluate financial and strategic planning decisions regarding future operating investments and operating budgets. In addition, our management uses AEBITDA and AEBITDA margin to facilitate management’s external comparisons of our results to the historical operating performance of other companies that may have different capital structures and debt levels. Our management believes that AEBITDA and AEBITDA margin are useful as they provide investors with information regarding our financial condition and operating performance that is an integral part of our management’s reporting and planning processes. In particular, our management believes that AEBITDA is helpful because this non-GAAP financial measure eliminates the effects of restructuring, transaction, integration or other items that management believes have less bearing on our ongoing underlying operating performance. Management believes AEBITDA margin is useful as it provides investors with information regarding the underlying operating performance and margin generated by our business operations. The forward-looking non-GAAP financial measure AEBITDA margin target range is presented on a supplemental basis. We are not providing a forward-looking quantitative reconciliation of AEBITDA margin target range to the most directly comparable GAAP measure because we are unable to predict with reasonable certainty the ultimate outcome of certain significant items without unreasonable effort. These items are uncertain, depend on various factors, and could have a material impact on GAAP reported results for the relevant period.
