Section 2 - Financial Information
Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
The information contained under Item 2.02 in this Current Report is being furnished and, as a result, such information shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall such information be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.
On March 1, 2010, Scientific Games Corporation (the “Company”) issued a press release (the “Press Release”) announcing results for the three months and year ended December 31, 2009. The full text of the Press Release was furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on March 1, 2010. The Press Release included incorrect amounts of after-tax charges that impacted the reported net loss in the three months and year ended December 31, 2009. The Company is filing this Amendment No. 1 on Form 8-K/A for the purpose of correcting the information with respect to such after-tax charges. Except as set forth below, the information set forth in the Press Release is correct.
The second and third sentences of the Press Release should read as follows:
“The Company reported a net loss of $50.1 million in the fourth quarter, after giving effect to charges totaling $60.4 million on an after-tax basis related to the non-cash impairment of certain Lottery Systems contracts and the adjustments made to EBITDA to arrive at adjusted EBITDA for the period that are identified in the schedule accompanying this press release. For the full year, the Company reported a net loss of $39.9 million, after giving effect to charges on an after-tax basis totaling $78.5 million related to the foregoing impairment charges and the adjustments made to EBITDA to arrive at adjusted EBITDA for the period that are identified in such schedule.”
The version of the Press Release that has been posted to the Company’s website has been updated to reflect this correction.
