Basis of presentation and Basis of accounting

Basis of presentation. The accompanying condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited interim condensed financial statements contain all necessary adjustments (including all those of a recurring nature and those necessary in order for the financial statements to be not misleading) and all disclosures to present fairly our financial position and the results of our operations and cash flows for the periods presented. As permitted by the rules and regulations of the SEC, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations.

These unaudited interim condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the related notes thereto included in our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019, filed with the SEC on March 30, 2020 (the “2019 10-K”).

The operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the full year.

Basis of accounting. The financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in conformity with U.S. GAAP. Revenues are recognized as income when earned and expenses are recognized when they are incurred. We do not have significant categories of cost of revenues. Expenses such as wages, consulting expenses, legal, regulatory and professional fees and rent are recorded when the expense is incurred.

Use of estimates and assumptions

Use of estimates and assumptions. We are required to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that we believe are reasonable based on our historical experience, contract terms, observance of known trends in our Company and the industry as a whole, and information available from other outside sources. Our estimates affect reported amounts for assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and related disclosures. Actual results may differ from initial estimates.

Consolidation

Consolidation. The financial statements are presented on a consolidated basis, including the results of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, PGP. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Impairment considerations

Impairment considerations. We considered whether the impact of the current COVID-19 pandemic on operations and financial results is an indicator that impairment may exist related to the Company’s inventory (Note 4), property and equipment (Note 5), assets deployed at client locations (Note 6) and intangible assets (Note 7). As a result of its impairment assessments, management has determined that its assets are not currently impaired. We considered the following:

Inventory. We considered whether additional write-offs or reserves were necessary to our inventory balance as a result of the impact of COVID-19. The vast majority of our Inventory is not sold to customers but, rather, is used to support new installations and repairs of our electronic table game systems which we account for as Assets Deployed at Client Locations. Based on our assessment, we determined additional write-offs and reserves were not required. We are in the process of developing a new generation of electronic table game systems and, once that new generation of system is available for customer installation, we will review inventory to determine how much of existing Inventory can be used in the next generation of systems. To the extent that there is Inventory that 1) cannot be used in the new generation of systems and 2) is in excess of what we might expect to need for repair of older generation systems that we expect to remain in the field, we may incur an impairment charge with respect to Inventory that is obsolete.

Long-lived assets. Our long-lived assets include property and equipment, assets deployed at client locations, and intangible assets. We assessed whether there was an indication of impairment of each asset group due to COVID-19 noting that based on the current contracts, including the lengthened payment terms noted above, the carrying value of our long-lived asset groups were recoverable.

Goodwill. We performed a qualitative assessment and determined that it was not more likely than not that the carrying value of the reporting unit was impaired. As part of our qualitative assessment, we considered our previous forecasts and assumptions based on our current projections, which are subject to various risks and uncertainties, including projected revenue, projected operating income, terminal growth rates, and the cost of capital.

Reclassifications

Reclassifications. Certain accounts and financial statement captions in the prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current period financial statement presentations.

Recently adopted accounting standards

Fair Value Measurement. In August 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework – Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement. ASU 2018-13 addresses the required disclosures around fair value measurement, removes certain disclosure requirements related to the fair value hierarchy, modifies existing disclosure requirements related to measurement uncertainty and adds new disclosure requirements. The new disclosure requirements include disclosing the changes in unrealized gains and losses for the period included in other comprehensive income for recurring Level 3 fair value measurements held at the end of the reporting period and the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements. We have adopted the new standard effective January 1, 2020, which did not have a material effect on our financial statements or related disclosures.

New accounting standards not yet adopted

Financial Instruments – Credit Losses. In February 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-02, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326). ASU 2020-02 provides updated guidance on how an entity should measure credit losses on financial instruments and delayed the effective date of Topic 326 for certain smaller reporting companies until fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. Early adoption is permitted. We do not believe the adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on our financial statements or related disclosures.

Revenue recognition

Revenue recognition. We generate revenue primarily from the licensing of our intellectual property. We also, occasionally, receive a one-time sale of certain products and/or reimbursement of our equipment.

License fees. We derive product lease and royalty revenue from negotiated recurring fee license agreements and the performance of our products. We account for these agreements as month-to-month contracts and recognize revenue each month as we satisfy our performance obligations. In addition, revenue associated with performance-based agreements is recognized during the month that the usage of the product or intellectual property occurs.

Product sales. Occasionally, we sell certain incidental products or receive reimbursement of our equipment after the commencement of the new license agreement. Revenue from such sales is recognized as a separate performance obligation when we ship the items.

Disaggregation of revenue

The following table disaggregates our revenue by geographic location for the following periods:

	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2020		2019		2020		2019
North America and Caribbean	$	971,147	$	3,891,875	$	4,262,408	$	11,644,353
Europe, Middle East and Africa		826,686		1,479,771		2,693,714		4,473,230
Total revenue	$	1,797,833	$	5,371,646	$	6,956,122	$	16,117,583

Revenue contract liability

For a portion of our business, we invoice our clients monthly in advance for unlimited use of our intellectual property licenses and recognize a revenue contract liability that represents such advanced billing to our clients for unsatisfied performance. We reduce the revenue contract liability and recognize revenue when we transfer those goods or services and, therefore, satisfy our performance obligation.

The table below summarizes changes in the revenue contract liability during the nine months ended September 30, 2020:

Beginning balance – January 1, 2020	$	1,294,265
Increase (advanced billings)		7,199,100
Decrease (revenue recognition)		(7,906,271	)
Ending balance – September 30, 2020	$	587,094

Revenue recognized during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 that was included in the beginning balance of revenue contract liability was $6,250 and $1,292,182, respectively.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

We estimate fair value for financial assets and liabilities in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement (“ASC 820”). ASC 820 defines fair value, provides guidance for measuring fair value, requires certain disclosures and discusses valuation techniques, such as the market approach (comparable market prices), the income approach (present value of future income or cash flow) and the cost approach (cost to replace the service capacity of an asset or replacement cost). ASC 820 utilizes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels:

•

Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

•

Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.

•

Level 3: Unobservable inputs that reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions.

The estimated fair value of cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximates their carrying amount due to their short-term nature. The estimated fair value of our long-term debt and lease obligations approximates their carrying value based upon our expected borrowing rate for debt with similar remaining maturities and comparable risk. As of September 30, 2020, the interest rate swap agreement was the only financial instrument measured at estimated fair value on a recurring basis based on valuation reports provided by counterparties, which are classified as level 2 inputs.
