International Game Technology PLC (“IGT”) (NYSE:IGT) today reported financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2018. Today, at 8:00 a.m. EDT, management will host a conference call and webcast to present the third quarter results; access details are provided below.
“Solid performance and important, long-term contracts drove very good third quarter and year-to-date results,” said Marco Sala, CEO of IGT. “Global Lottery same-store revenues for instants and draw games rose mid-single digits. The installed base of gaming machines was up, and unit shipments of gaming machines increased 10%. And, we enjoyed particularly strong sales and profit growth in Italy, confirming the vitality of that important market. We are firmly on track to achieve our 2018 financial and operational goals.”
“We’ve delivered Adjusted EBITDA growth of 4% and 7% for the third quarter and year-to-date periods at constant currency and scope,” said Alberto Fornaro, CFO of IGT. “As a result, we are narrowing our Adjusted EBITDA outlook for 2018 to $1,740 – $1,780 million, the top half of the prior range.”

Comparability of Results
All figures presented in this news release are prepared under U.S. GAAP, unless noted otherwise. Adjusted figures exclude the impact of items such as purchase accounting, impairment charges, restructuring expense, foreign exchange, and certain one-time, primarily transaction-related items. Reconciliations to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measures are included in the tables in this news release. Constant currency changes for 2018 are calculated using the same foreign exchange rates as the corresponding 2017 period. Management uses non-GAAP financial measures to understand and compare operating results across accounting periods, for internal budgeting and forecasting purposes, and to evaluate the Company’s financial performance. Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures reflect the Company’s ongoing business in a manner that allows for meaningful period-to-period comparisons and analysis of business trends. These constant currency changes and non-GAAP financial measures should however be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative for, the Company’s reported results prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

GGBET UA is bringing football fans and teams closer together: FC Dynamo press conference takes place in Kyiv
On March 3, a joint media event was held by Dynamo Kyiv and GGBET UA, the official partner of the club’s winter training camp. During the conference, the participants discussed the results of recent matches, the team’s preparations for the second half of the season, and new marketing initiatives, as well as shared insights on the team’s partnership with the betting brand.
The team’s experience in the European leagues in January was a challenge for the football club, which the team faced with dignity and learned from. The Dynamo’s captain, ex-Dortmund and West Ham player Andriy Yarmolenko, said that the tournament’s updated format made it even more exciting. Team’s head coach Oleksandr Shovkovskyi highlighted the importance of the team’s winter training camp, adding that it was a crucial stage of preparation.
The team’s deputy general director Maksym Radutskyi spoke about new marketing initiatives: “At the moment it’s difficult to organize offline activities in Ukraine, which is why we’ve launched a number of digital projects as we prepare for the club’s 100th anniversary. In terms of scale, they’re comparable to the EURO 2012 final, which took place in Ukraine. What has been a great help is our synergy with our partners at GGBET, who do a lot of effective, high quality work, and we’ve had an excellent experience collaborating with them.”
As a part of GG.BET’s brand strategy, media events aimed at bringing the team closer to its fans provide a unique opportunity for journalists to receive up-to-date insights into the club’s day-to-day life, creating value for all participants and promoting Ukrainian football.
One aspect of this strategy involves the launch of a YouTube channel, GG.Sport, with the latest football content. In a recent video, legendary Ukrainian footballer Andriy Yarmolenko talked about what motivates him to play, his role as the “older brother” in the team, and his plans once he finishes his career.
