-- Record Total Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP) of $36.6 Million Grew 40% Year-Over-Year
LAS VEGAS, Aug. 2, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- PlayAGS, Inc. (NYSE: AGS) ("AGS", "us", "we" or the "Company") today reported operating results for its second quarter 2018.
"AGS grew both the top and bottom line by more than 40% in the second quarter, marking the most successful quarter in our company's history. Our strong results reflect record highs in our EGM and Tables Products revenue, average selling prices, revenue per day, and recurring revenue. We continue to reap the benefits of our Orion and Bonus Spin product launches, our steady ramp into key markets like Nevada, California and New Jersey, and strong performance from both our optimized and new product footprint.
In addition to a strong pipeline of new product launches and our initial entry into markets such as Canada to accelerate our growth, our recent acquisition of content-aggregator Gameiom creates a new channel to exploit our industry-leading game content in online real-money gaming markets. Because of the potential upside from these exciting opportunities in our EGM business and our strong first half of the year, we are raising our Adjusted EBITDA guidance to reflect a new range of $132 million to $136 million."

Second Quarter Financial Highlights
- Total revenue increased 45% to $72.8 million, a company record, driven by continued growth of our EGMs in the Class III marketplace, led by demand for our premium Orion Portrait cabinet.
- Recurring revenue grew to $52.6 million or 26% year-over-year. In addition to the contribution from the EGMs purchased from Rocket Gaming and Table Products purchased from In Bet in the Fall of 2017, the increase was driven by our strong Domestic revenue per day ("RPD") of $27.79, up $1.90 year-over-year.
- EGM equipment sales increased 144% to $20.2 million, another Company record, due to the sale of 1,058 units, of which approximately 60% and 12% were Orion Portrait and Orion Slant cabinets, respectively.
- Net loss improved to $5.3 million from $20.1 million in the prior year, primarily due to increased revenue described above.
- Total Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP) increased to $36.6 million, or 40%, driven by the significant increase in revenue, partially offset by increased adjusted operating expenses of $3.9 million primarily due to increased headcount in SG&A and R&D.(1)
- Total Adjusted EBITDA margin decreased to 50% in the second quarter 2018 compared to 52% in the prior year driven by several different factors, most notably due to the increased proportion of equipment sales to total revenues.
- SG&A expenses increased $5.0 million in the second quarter of 2018 primarily due to $2.3 million in increased professional fees driven by costs associated with the acquisition of online content-aggregator Gameiom as well as costs associated with our previous offerings. Salary and benefit costs increased $1.8 million due to higher headcount and non-cash stock based compensation expense increased $0.3 million.
- R&D expenses increased $0.7 million in the second quarter of 2018 driven by higher salary and benefit costs related to additional headcount.
(1) Total Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure, see non-GAAP reconciliation below.
Second Quarter Business Highlights
- Domestic EGM installed base increased by more than 2,400 units year-over-year driven by the purchase of approximately 1,500 EGMs from Rocket Gaming in December 2017 and the popularity of our Orion Portrait and ICON cabinets.
- Domestic EGM RPD increased 7% to $27.79 driven by our new product offerings and the optimization of our installed base by installing our newer higher performing EGMs.
- EGM units sold increased to 1,058 in the current quarter compared to 574 in the prior year led by sales of the Orion Portrait cabinet in early entry markets such as California, Nevada and New Jersey.
- EGM average selling price (ASP) increased 18% to $18,728, a quarterly company record, driven by record sales of the premium-priced Orion Portrait cabinet and our newly introduced core-plus cabinet, Orion Slant.
- On a trailing twelve months basis, approximately $8.3 million of our recurring revenue came from our yield optimization efforts.
- Table Products increased 983 units, or 56%, to 2,737 units driven by both organic growth, most notably in Buster Blackjack and Bonus Spin progressive units, and the purchase of approximately 500 In Bet units in the third quarter of 2017.
- Our ICON cabinet footprint grew 108% to over 6,417 total units in the field including our first placements of nearly 200 cabinets into Mexico.
- Introduced to the market in Q1 of 2017, our Orion Portrait cabinet ended Q2 2018 with a footprint of over 3,600 total units as compared to 463 units in second quarter of 2017, up 90% from year-end and 680% year-over-year.
Balance Sheet Review
Capital expenditures decreased $4.8 million to $13.1 million in the second quarter, compared to $17.9 million in the prior year period. As of June 30, 2018, we had $28.2 million in cash and cash equivalents compared to $19.2 million at December 31, 2017. Total net debt, which is the principal amount of debt outstanding less cash and cash equivalents, as of June 30, 2018, was approximately $483.7 million compared to $648.7 million at December 31, 2017. This substantial reduction was driven by the IPO and related redemption of our HoldCo PIK notes during the first quarter. In the second quarter, net debt decreased by over $3.0 million due to mandatory principal payments on our term loans and a higher balance of cash and cash equivalents. As a result of the above transactions and our strong operational performance, our total net debt leverage ratio, which is total net debt divided by Adjusted EBITDA for the trailing twelve-month period, decreased from 6.1 times at December 31, 2017, to 4.2 times at March 31, 2018, and now 3.8 times at June 30, 2018.
2018 Outlook
Based on our year-to-date progress and due to our current momentum, we now expect our total Adjusted EBITDA in 2018 to be between $132.0 and $136.0 million. This is an upward revision to the guidance we previously released and is based on greater visibility that we now have for the installation and performance of Orion Portrait, Orion Slant, STAX, and other products for the remainder of the year, in addition to accelerated efforts to increase our footprint in sizable new markets, such as Canada. We maintain our capital expenditures range of $55.0 to $60.0 million.
We have not provided a reconciliation of forward looking total Adjusted EBITDA to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, Net income (loss), due primarily to the variability and difficulty in making accurate forecasts and projections of the variable and individual adjustments for a reconciliation to Net income (loss), as not all of the information necessary for a quantitative reconciliation is available to us without unreasonable effort. We expect that the main components of Net income (loss) for fiscal year 2018 shall consist of operating expenses, interest expenses as well as other expenses (income) and income tax expenses, which are inherently difficult to forecast and quantify with reasonable accuracy without unreasonable efforts. The amounts associated with these items have historically and may continue to vary significantly from quarter to quarter and material changes to these items could have a significant effect on our future GAAP results.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release and accompanying schedules provide certain information regarding total Adjusted EBITDA, which is considered a non-GAAP financial measures under the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
We believe that the presentation of total Adjusted EBITDA is appropriate to provide additional information to investors about certain material non-cash items that we do not expect to continue at the same level in the future, as well as other items we do not consider indicative of our ongoing operating performance. Further, we believe total Adjusted EBITDA provides a meaningful measure of operating profitability because we use it for evaluating our business performance, making budgeting decisions, and comparing our performance against that of other peer companies using similar measures. It also provides management and investors with additional information to estimate our value.
Total Adjusted EBITDA is not a presentation made in accordance with GAAP. Our use of the term total Adjusted EBITDA may vary from others in our industry. Total Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to operating income or net income. Total Adjusted EBITDA has important limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for the analysis of our results as reported under GAAP.
Our definition of total Adjusted EBITDA allows us to add back certain non-cash charges or expenses that are deducted in calculating net income and to deduct certain gains that are included in calculating net income. However, these charges and expenses and gains vary greatly, and are difficult to predict. They can represent the effect of long-term strategies as opposed to short-term results. In addition, in the case of charges or expenses, these items can represent the reduction of cash that could be used for other corporate purposes. Due to these limitations, we rely primarily on our GAAP results, such as net loss, (loss) income from operations, EGM Adjusted EBITDA, Table Products Adjusted EBITDA or Interactive Adjusted EBITDA and use total Adjusted EBITDA only supplementally.
The following table presents a reconciliation of total Adjusted EBITDA to net loss, which is the most comparable GAAP measure:
