Scientific Games Corporation announced the California State Lottery has signed a three-year contract extension for Scientific Games to continue as the Lottery’s primary provider of instant games and associated services through November 2022, with optional extensions remaining through 2025. The Company will continue to provide the No. 3 instant game lottery in the world (2018 total sales, La Fleur’s Almanac) with instant games and services, including product and player research, game design, game portfolio planning, integrated marketing programs and retailer account management.

“As the California Lottery’s profits grow responsibly, so does the collective impact our partnership has on public education in the state.
