+Added: previously reported by the Company in a Form 8-K filed with the SEC on November 8, 2023, the Audit Committee (the “Audit Committee”)
+Added: of the Board of Directors of the Company, in consultation with the Company’s management, determined that the Company’s previously
+Added: issued audited consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2022 and 2021 and for each of the three years in the period ended
+Added: December 31, 2022 and associated reports of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm included in the Company’s
+Added: Annual Report on Form 10-K as well as the Company’s previously issued unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements during
+Added: those years, as well as for the first and second quarters of 2023 included in the Company’s Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q (the
+Added: “Subject Periods”) contained accounting errors relating to compliance with U.S.
+Added: The errors related primarily to the
+Added: application of the relevant accounting standards to projects, including the categories of projects available for capitalization, the
+Added: types of costs eligible for capitalization and the timing of capitalization with respect to software development projects.
+Added: significant errors in the application of accounting were identified for goodwill and intangible assets, costs to fulfill and obtain a
+Added: contract, revenue, pensions, inventory, leases and basic and diluted EPS.
+Added: As a result of these errors, the Audit Committee determined
+Added: that the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the Subject Periods should no longer be relied upon and should be restated.
+Added: Similarly, any previously issued or filed reports, press releases, earnings releases, investor presentations or other communications
+Added: of the Company describing the Company’s financial results or other financial information relating to the Subject Periods should
+Added: no longer be relied upon.
+Added: Additionally, the reports of Marcum LLP, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm,
+Added: on the Company’s consolidated financial statements for 2022 and 2021 likewise should no longer be relied upon.
+Added: of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.

+Added: Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.
+Added: controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed
+Added: in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Executive Chairman
+Added: and our Chief Financial Officer (together, the “Certifying Officers”), or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate,
+Added: to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

+Added: procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act.
+Added: Based on this evaluation, the Certifying Officers concluded
+Added: that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures at December 31, 2022 were not effective, due to the material weaknesses described
+Added: light of these material weaknesses, we performed additional analyses as deemed necessary to ensure that our financial statements were
+Added: prepared in accordance with U.S.
+Added: generally accepted accounting principles.
+Added: believes that the consolidated financial statements as of as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, and for each of the three years in the period
+Added: ended December 31, 2022, and related notes, as restated, thereto included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K/A fairly present, in all
+Added: material aspects, the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented and restated.
+Added: Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting as Part of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act 2002 (“SOX”)
+Added: management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting.
+Added: Insofar as the Company
+Added: is subject to Section 404(b) of SOX, this Annual Report on Form 10-K/A includes an opinion by our external auditors on the effectiveness
+Added: of our internal control over financial reporting at December 31, 2022 in addition to management’s assessment of the effectiveness
+Added: of internal control over financial reporting under the requirements of Section 404(a) of SOX.
+Added: Our internal control over financial reporting
+Added: is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of our consolidated
+Added: financial statements for external reporting purposes in accordance with U.S.
+Added: Our internal control over financial reporting includes
+Added: those policies and procedures that:
+Added: pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of
+Added: the assets of our Company;
+Added: provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit the preparation of consolidated financial statements
in accordance with U.S.
−Removed: Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:
−Removed: (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable
−Removed: detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of our Company;
−Removed: (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded
−Removed: as necessary to permit the preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S.
−Removed: GAAP, and that our receipts
−Removed: and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors;
−Removed: (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely
−Removed: detection of any unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the consolidated
−Removed: financial statements.
−Removed: Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial
−Removed: reporting may not prevent or detect errors or misstatements in our consolidated financial statements.
−Removed: Also, projections of any
−Removed: evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in
+Added: GAAP, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management
+Added: and directors;
+Added: provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of any unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets
+Added: that could have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.
+Added: control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect errors or misstatements in our consolidated financial statements.
+Added: Also, projections
+Added: of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in
conditions, or that the degree or compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
−Removed: Management assessed the effectiveness
−Removed: of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2019.
−Removed: In making this assessment, management used the criteria
−Removed: set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control —
−Removed: Framework (2013).
−Removed: Based on this evaluation, management identified the following deficiencies in internal control over financial
−Removed: reporting as described below.
−Removed: connection with the audit of our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures as of and for the year ended December 31,
−Removed: 2019, we identified certain misstatements in our draft year-end footnote disclosures provided to them which were not individually material
−Removed: but which in aggregate led to a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting.
−Removed: All significant identified errors
−Removed: have been corrected.
−Removed: A material weakness is defined as a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial
−Removed: reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of annual or interim financial statements will not
−Removed: be prevented or detected and corrected on a timely basis.
−Removed: The material weakness did not result in any identified misstatements to the
−Removed: current financial statements or footnote disclosures and there were no changes to previously released financial statements or footnote
−Removed: disclosures apart from two immaterial account reclassifications, one on the balance sheet and one on the statement of cash flows.
−Removed: has concluded that the misstatements in our footnote disclosures were the result of several unusual events occurring during the fourth
−Removed: quarter 2019 and/or during the related accounting closing and reporting period leading up to our Annual Report on Form 10-K including
−Removed: office closures due to the COVID-19 outbreak, a significant acquisition, first time adoption of accounting standards and which, in the
−Removed: aggregate, contributed to a breakdown in related controls over footnote disclosure review.
−Removed: As a result of the material weakness, management
−Removed: concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2019.
−Removed: addition, management has identified a material weakness in internal controls related to the accounting for warrants, as described in
−Removed: Note 1 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements entitled “Restatement of Previously Reported Information”.
−Removed: As a non-accelerated filer, the Company is not required to include
−Removed: in this report a report on the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting by the Company’s independent registered
−Removed: public accounting firm.
−Removed: Remediation of Material Weakness
−Removed: Our Board of Directors and management take internal control
−Removed: over financial reporting and the integrity of our financial statements seriously.
−Removed: Prospectively and in particular while the current
−Removed: remote working conditions associated with the COVID-19 outbreak remain in effect, Management intends to ensure that all reviews
−Removed: are fully completed prior to issuing the draft financial statements to our external auditors (or where possible make it clear this
−Removed: is the case) .
−Removed: Management will also add an additional third-party external review of the financial statements to the process prior
−Removed: to submission moving forward.
−Removed: At this time, we cannot provide assurance that these remediation efforts will be successful or that
−Removed: our internal control over financial reporting will be effective as a result of these efforts.
−Removed: In addition, we continue to evaluate
−Removed: and work to improve our internal control over financial reporting related to the identified deficiencies that led, in aggregate,
−Removed: to a material weakness, management may determine to take additional measures to address control deficiencies or determine to modify
−Removed: the remediation plan described above.
−Removed: Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
−Removed: Except for the changes noted above
−Removed: regarding the material weakness and the implementation of internal controls over lease accounting and revenue recognition related to
−Removed: our implementation of ASU No.
−Removed: 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) and ASC 606, Revenue Recognition, respectively, there have been no other changes
−Removed: in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during
−Removed: the most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over
−Removed: financial reporting, as the circumstances that led to the restatement of our financial statements described in this Annual Report
−Removed: on Form 10-K had not yet been identified.
−Removed: Due solely to the events that led to our restatement of our financial statements, management
−Removed: has also identified a material weakness in internal controls related to the accounting for warrants, as described in Note 1 to the Notes
−Removed: to Consolidated Financial Statements entitled “Restatement of Previously Reported Information”.
+Added: has assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2022 based on the
+Added: criteria set forth in 2013 by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in Internal Control-Integrated Framework.
+Added: Based on that assessment, our internal control over financial reporting at December 31, 2022 was not effective, based upon the material
+Added: weaknesses discussed below.
+Added: material weakness is defined as a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that
+Added: there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected
+Added: and corrected on a timely basis.
+Added: effort of Previously Reported Material Weakness
+Added: previously disclosed in Item 9A of our Annual Report on Form10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, management identified a material
+Added: weakness in internal control over financial reporting relating to an ineffective risk assessment and response process (the “Risk
+Added: Assessment and Response Material Weakness”).
+Added: Namely, the Company had not established an effective control environment due to the
+Added: ineffective design and implementation of management review controls.
+Added: These controls pertain to approval processes of accounting estimates
+Added: and account reconciliations of some of the Company’s significant accounts.
+Added: These deficiencies represented material weaknesses in
+Added: the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as there was a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement with
+Added: respect to certain of the Company’s significant accounts and disclosures would not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
+Added: Factors contributing to the Risk Assessment and Response Material Weakness included the fact that during 2021, the Company centralized
+Added: all its finance functions into one location and implemented a new Enterprise Resource Planning (“ERP”) system which went
+Added: live much later in the year than initially planned, as it had to be put on hold due to the impact that the COVID-19 pandemic had on the
+Added: As a result, there was insufficient time prior to year-end to implement or operate certain controls which were newly designed
+Added: or re-designed as a result of the impact of the ERP implementation.
+Added: The Company had also been without its Chief Financial Officer for
+Added: a period of time due to illness, which required a redistribution of roles and responsibilities, including those related to controls.
+Added: of December 31, 2022, the Company was of the position that their remediation efforts were successful with respect to remediating previously
+Added: reported Risk Assessment and Response Material Weakness by (1) establishing an executive steering committee to monitor the remediation
+Added: of the underlying control deficiencies, (2) hiring an additional SOX specialist in June 2022 to support the Chief Financial Officer and
+Added: Director of Finance, (3) increasing the use our outsourced SOX service provider to assist in all aspects of our SOX program, (4) providing
+Added: one-on-one training to control owners who are part of our broader accounting and operations teams on control execution and related documentation
+Added: and evidence, (5) re-mapping internal control over financial reporting to risks and financial statement assertions, (6) remediating previously
+Added: identified control gaps or deficient controls by implementing newly designed controls and/or enhancing the operation and/or underlying
+Added: evidence of existing controls, (7) expanding business process narratives with enhanced details of process flows and controls, and (8)
+Added: enhancing the documentation of the execution of management review controls.
+Added: The Company completed its testing of the effectiveness of
+Added: the remediated, newly designed, and re-designed controls and, other than those relating to the material weaknesses identified below,
+Added: initially noted no material control deficiencies.
+Added: However, because of the significant errors identified below, Management concluded that
+Added: the Risk Assessment and Response Material Weakness remained unremediated as of December 31, 2022.
+Added: Identified Material Weaknesses and Remediation
+Added: Assessment and Controls Design and Accounting Competency
+Added: Company has identified additional areas of material weakness in internal controls over financial reporting relating to an ineffective
+Added: risk assessment and appropriate design of controls process (the “Risk Assessment and Controls Design Material Weakness”)
+Added: as well as inadequate monitoring controls (the “Monitoring Controls Material Weakness”).
+Added: Namely, the Company had not established
+Added: an effective control environment due to not effectively identifying risks in the process and then had an ineffective design and implementation
+Added: of certain process controls including but not limiting the following areas:
+Added: (i) Preparation, review and approval of account analyses,
+Added: summaries and reconciliations;
+Added: (ii) documenting accounting policies and design procedures and controls to ensure compliance with Company
+Added: accounting policies and US GAAP;
+Added: (iii) review and approval of journal entries;
+Added: (iv) accuracy of information input into and output from
+Added: the financial reporting and accounting systems;
+Added: (v) accuracy and completeness of the financial statement disclosures and presentations
+Added: in accordance with GAAP.
+Added: The Company also did not maintain an effective program for monitoring the design and operational effectiveness
+Added: of internal controls over the financial close and reporting process including identification, evaluation, and timely remediation of control
+Added: deficiencies over financial reporting deficiencies throughout interim and annual financial periods.
+Added: The above deficiencies represented
+Added: material weaknesses in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as there was a reasonable possibility that a material
+Added: misstatement with respect to certain of the Company’s significant accounts and disclosures would not be prevented or detected.
+Added: Additionally, the Company has identified a material weakness in Accounting and Reporting Competencies.
+Added: These controls relate to the Company’s
+Added: Finance function including individuals with public accounting and reporting experience, along with competency and training on U.S.
+Added: and SEC reporting to ensure compliance with reporting requirements.
+Added: These controls represent a material weakness as there is a reasonable
+Added: possibility that without the appropriate level of knowledge, a material misstatement with respect to certain of the Company’s significant
+Added: accounts or disclosures could not be prevented or detected.
+Added: contributing to these material weaknesses included the acquisition of Novomatic UK Gaming Technology in October, 2019, which approximately
+Added: doubled the size of the Company.
+Added: A new Finance and Accounting team was formed based on the acquisition with decentralized locations,
+Added: processes, and technology.
+Added: SOX controls and documentation were not reviewed and standardized across the departments in a timely manner
+Added: following the acquisition.
+Added: Additionally, sufficient personnel with U.S.
+Added: GAAP experience were not in place across the organization.
+Added: remediation for these material weaknesses includes (1) effectiveness risk assessments along with development, enhancement and implementation
+Added: of processes and controls in designated areas to evaluate, record and report transactions according to U.S.
+Added: GAAP with supporting controls.
+Added: Risk and gap assessment has commenced in all accounting areas to enhance 2024 SOX remediation program.
+Added: (2) Documentation of U.S.
+Added: accounting policies with corresponding process flows and controls.
+Added: New policy documentation covering critical areas has been developed
+Added: and new corresponding flows and controls will be documented as part of 2024 SOX remediation program.
+Added: (3) Automation and monitoring of
+Added: critical accounting transaction processing and controls to facilitate compliance.
+Added: Key changes in the financial ERP have commenced and
+Added: implementation of new revenue and lease systems is commencing.
+Added: (4) Continued advisory support from outsourced technical accounting provider
+Added: on significant and complex transactions and introduction of new SOX provider to assist in implementation, (5) Recruitment in key accounting
+Added: leadership roles of Chief Financial Officer, Global Financial Controller, and Director of Audit, SOX and Accounting Policy all with U.S.
+Added: GAAP experience.
+Added: Individuals in certain roles are already in place with needed expertise (6) Training of accounting team in relevant
+Added: GAAP areas (7) establishment of monitoring procedures for identification of control deficiencies over financial reporting throughout
+Added: interim and annual financial periods.
+Added: this deficiency, Management has corrected the resulting financial statement misstatements and Management is planning to remediate the
+Added: material weakness during 2024 by implementing the remediation plan above.
+Added: has identified internal control deficiencies due to IT program and data changes affecting the Company’s financial IT applications
+Added: and underlying accounting records, not being identified, tested, authorized, and implemented appropriately to validate that data produced
+Added: by its relevant IT system(s) was complete and accurate.
+Added: Automated process-level controls and manual controls that are dependent upon
+Added: the information derived from such financially relevant systems were also determined to be ineffective, as a result of such deficiency
+Added: and there was not appropriate segregation of duties that would adequately restrict user and privileged access to the financially relevant
+Added: systems and data to the appropriate Company personnel.
+Added: Management has concluded that these deficient controls could fail to prevent or
+Added: detect a material misstatement and as such rise to a material weakness in the aggregate.
+Added: is planning to continue remediating the design of segregation of duties during 2024 by changing access levels, and reviewers, and updating
+Added: Despite this deficiency, Management is not aware of any resulting financial statement misstatements and, additionally, management
+Added: has undertaken a retrospective analysis of 2022 transactions of individuals with such incompatibilities and our analysis indicates that
+Added: none of the changes made was incorrect or inappropriate.
+Added: respect to all deficiencies identified above, management has begun the remediation process, however the material weaknesses cannot be
+Added: considered fully remediated until it is demonstrated that the new or enhanced controls and other impacted or dependent controls have
+Added: operated effectively for a sufficient period of time.
+Added: in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
+Added: for the changes noted above in connection with the initiatives to remediate material weaknesses, there have been no other changes in
+Added: our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the
+Added: most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial
+Added: REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING
+Added: FIRM ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
+Added: To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of
+Added: Inspired Entertainment, Inc.
+Added: and Subsidiaries
+Added: Opinion on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
+Added: have audited Inspired Entertainment, Inc.
+Added: and Subsidiaries’ (the “Company”) internal control over financial reporting
+Added: as of December 31, 2022, based on criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee
+Added: of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.
+Added: In our opinion, because of the effect of the material weaknesses described in
+Added: the following paragraphs on the achievement of the objectives of the control criteria, the Company has not maintained effective internal
+Added: control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2022, based on criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013)
+Added: issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.
+Added: material weakness is a control deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there
+Added: is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented
+Added: or detected on a timely basis.
+Added: The following material weaknesses have been identified and are included in “Management’s Annual
+Added: Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting”:
+Added: controls relating to IT change management:
+Added: The Company did not design and/or implement program change management controls to ensure
+Added: the IT program and data changes affecting the Company’s financial IT applications & underlying accounting records, are identified,
+Added: tested, authorized and implemented appropriately to validate that data produced by its relevant IT systems were complete and accurate.
+Added: Automated process-level controls and manual controls that are dependent upon the information derived from such financially relevant systems
+Added: were also determined to be ineffective as a result of such deficiency.
+Added: controls relating to IT user access controls:
+Added: The Company did not design and/or implement user access controls to ensure that appropriate
+Added: segregation of duties would adequately restrict user and privileged access to the financially relevant systems and data to the appropriate
+Added: Company personnel.
+Added: Automated process-level controls and manual controls that are dependent upon the information derived from such financially
+Added: relevant systems were also determined to be ineffective as a result of such deficiency.
+Added: controls relating to Risk Assessments:
+Added: The Company has not established an effective control environment related to the Company’s
+Added: Risk Assessment and Response due to the ineffective design and implementation of process controls, including effective management review
+Added: These controls include but are not limited to accounting estimates, account reconciliations and approval processes of some
+Added: of the Company’s accounts.
+Added: documentation of accounting policies and procedures and staff training:
+Added: The Company lacks a sufficient level of formal documentation
+Added: of accounting policies and procedures that define how transactions should be initiated, recorded, processed, and reported.
+Added: has not established effective controls related to the Company’s finance function including individuals with appropriate level of
+Added: accounting and reporting experience, along with competency and training on U.S.
+Added: GAAP and SEC reporting.
+Added: In addition, the Company did
+Added: not maintain adequate segregation of duties or the appropriate level of review procedures to record amounts appropriately.
+Added: controls relating to the financial reporting and closing process:
+Added: The Company’s internal controls were not adequately designed
+Added: in a manner to effectively support the requirement of the financial reporting and closing process.
+Added: The material weakness is an aggregation
+Added: of deficiencies including but not limiting the following areas:
+Added: (i) Preparation, review and approval of account analyses, summaries and
+Added: reconciliations (including matters related to cash collections and contract approvals as previously reported);
+Added: (ii) documenting accounting
+Added: policies and design procedures and controls to ensure compliance with Company accounting policies and US GAAP;
+Added: (iii) review and approval
+Added: of journal entries;
+Added: (iv) accuracy of information input into and output from the financial reporting and accounting systems;
+Added: and completeness of the financial statement disclosures and presentations in accordance with GAAP.
+Added: Due to the significance of the financial
+Added: closing and reporting process to the preparation of reliable financial statements, and the potential pervasiveness of the deficiencies
+Added: to the Company’s account balances and disclosures, there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement to the annual
+Added: or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
+Added: monitoring controls:
+Added: The Company did not maintain an effective program for monitoring the design and operational effectiveness of
+Added: internal controls over the financial close and reporting process including identification, evaluation, and timely remediation of control
+Added: deficiencies over financial reporting deficiencies throughout interim and annual financial periods.
+Added: deficiencies represent material weaknesses in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as there is a reasonable
+Added: possibility that a material misstatement with respect to the Company’s significant accounts and disclosures will not be prevented
+Added: or detected on a timely basis.
+Added: material weaknesses were considered in determining the nature, timing and extent of audit tests applied in our audit of the December
+Added: 31, 2022 consolidated financial statements, and this report does not affect our report on such financial statements.
+Added: have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”),

+Added: on the assessed risk.
+Added: Our audit also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances.
+Added: that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

−Removed: AND SEPTEMBER 30, 2018
−Removed: of Operations, Management’s Plans and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
−Removed: Description and Nature of Operations
−Removed: Entertainment, Inc.
−Removed: (the “Company,”
−Removed: “we,”
−Removed: “our,”
−Removed: and “us”) is a global business-to-business
−Removed: gaming technology company, supplying Server Based Gaming (“SBG”) and Virtual Sports (which includes Interactive) systems
−Removed: to regulated lottery, betting and gaming operators worldwide through an “omni-channel”
−Removed: distribution strategy.
−Removed: end-to-end digital gaming solutions on our proprietary and secure network, which accommodates a wide range of devices, including
−Removed: land-based gaming machine terminals, mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets and online computer and social applications.
−Removed: Company was incorporated in Delaware on May 30, 2014 under the name Hydra Industries Acquisition Corp.
−Removed: (“Hydra”) as
−Removed: a “blank check company”
−Removed: for the purpose of acquiring, through a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition,
−Removed: stock purchase, reorganization, recapitalization or other similar business transaction, one or more operating businesses.
−Removed: 23, 2016 (the “Closing Date”), the Company acquired Inspired Gaming Group (“Inspired”), pursuant to a
−Removed: share sale agreement dated as of July 13, 2016 (the “Sale Agreement”).
−Removed: The transaction was accounted for as a reverse
−Removed: merger where Inspired was the acquirer and Hydra was the acquired company.
−Removed: In connection with the acquisition, we changed our
−Removed: name from Hydra to Inspired Entertainment, Inc.
−Removed: We refer to the acquisition and the other transactions contemplated by the Sale
−Removed: Agreement, collectively, as the “Business Combination”
−Removed: or the “Merger.”
−Removed: On October 1, 2019, the Company completed
−Removed: the acquisition of the Gaming Technology Group of Novomatic UK Ltd., a division of Novomatic Group, a leading international supplier
−Removed: of gaming equipment and solutions (the “NTG Acquisition”).
−Removed: Liquidity Plans
−Removed: As of December 31, 2019, the Company’s cash
−Removed: on hand was $29.1 million and the Company had working capital of $7.2 million.
−Removed: As of December 31, 2019, $5.0 million of our cash
−Removed: on hand had arisen from our operations in Greece and was being held in local accounts.
−Removed: In the ordinary course of business, we seek, from
−Removed: time to time, to transfer funds earned in Greece to our accounts outside of Greece.
−Removed: However, Greece imposes capital controls that can
−Removed: delay or prevent the flow of capital out of the country.
−Removed: The Company recorded net losses of $41.1 million, and net income of
−Removed: $1.6 million and $13.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2019, the three months ended December 31, 2018 and the year
−Removed: ended September 30, 2018, respectively.
−Removed: Net losses and income include non-cash stock-based compensation of $9.0 million,
−Removed: $1.6 million and $7.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2019, the three months ended December 31, 2018 and the year ended September
−Removed: 30, 2018, respectively, and non-cash changes in fair value of warrant liability of $4.1 million loss, $6.3 million income and $33.9
−Removed: million income for the year ended December 31, 2019, the three months ended December 31, 2018 and the year ended September 30, 2018,
−Removed: respectively.
−Removed: Historically, the Company has generally had positive cash flows from operating activities and has relied on a combination
−Removed: of cash flows provided by operations and the incurrence of debt and/or the refinancing of existing debt to fund its obligations.
−Removed: capital of $7.2 million includes a non-cash settled item of $10.1 million of deferred income.
−Removed: Management currently believes that,
−Removed: absent any long term COVID-19 impact, the Company’s cash balances on hand, cash flows expected to be generated from operations,
−Removed: ability to control and defer capital projects and amounts available from the Company’s external borrowings will be sufficient to
−Removed: fund the Company’s net cash requirements through March 2021.
−Removed: Our business is being and will continue to
−Removed: be adversely affected by the rapidly expanding nature of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.
−Removed: All venues offering land-based gaming,
−Removed: including our products, are closed for an indeterminate period of time in the jurisdictions in which we operate through governmental
−Removed: In addition, the extent of a significant economic impact from the pandemic may result in a decrease in the willingness
−Removed: or ability of consumers to engage in gambling activities.
−Removed: Land-based customers globally, and the United States, United Kingdom,
−Removed: Greece and Italy specifically, are impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic due to the closure of venues.
−Removed: There is also a possibility
−Removed: that player behavior may change following any resolution of the pandemic, including that consumers may spend less time or wager
−Removed: smaller amounts at gambling facilities.
−Removed: The pandemic is adversely affecting a broad range of our operations, including our ability
−Removed: to obtain and ship our products, our ability to continue to develop new products and services and the ability of our customers
−Removed: to pay outstanding amounts due to us.
−Removed: As a result of the significant reductions in revenue and other changes to our business, at
−Removed: least in the short term (which also affects other companies in our industry), we are working to protect our existing available
−Removed: liquidity by pro-actively managing capital expenditures and working capital as well as identifying both immediate and longer term
−Removed: opportunities for cost savings.
−Removed: We expect, due to closures of land-based venues,
−Removed: that there could be a meaningful increase in our online revenues from slots and virtual sports but it is not possible to quantify
−Removed: any potential impact at this time.
−Removed: Prior to any COVID-19 impact, we would have expected this part of our business to account for
−Removed: approximately 10% of Company revenue during 2020.
−Removed: As part of these efforts to preserve liquidity, the Company drew
−Removed: all remaining availability (£18.0 million ($23.8 million using rates prevailing at December 31, 2019)) under its £20
−Removed: million ($26.4 million using rates prevailing at December 31, 2019) revolving credit facility on March 13, 2020.
−Removed: of Presentation
−Removed: accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally
−Removed: accepted in the United States of America (“U.S.
−Removed: GAAP”).
−Removed: September 24, 2018, the Board of Directors approved a change in the Company’s fiscal year end from September 30 to December
−Removed: 31 commencing with the year ending December 31, 2019.
−Removed: As such, our fiscal year 2018 comprised the twelve-month period ended September
−Removed: 30, 2018, the three-month period from October 1, 2018 to December 31, 2018 was a transitional period and our fiscal year 2019
−Removed: comprised the twelve-month period ended December 31, 2019.
−Removed: of Previously Reported Information
−Removed: April 12, 2021, the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) released a public statement (the “Public Statement”)
−Removed: informing market participants that warrants issued by special purpose acquisition companies (“SPACs”) may require classification
−Removed: as a liability of the entity measured at fair value, with changes in fair value each period reported in earnings.
−Removed: of December 31, 2019 and September 30, 2018, the Company had 19,079,130 outstanding warrants to purchase an aggregate of 9,539,565 shares
−Removed: of the Company’s common stock, which includes 7,999,900 warrants originally issued as part of the initial public offering (the
−Removed: “IPO”) (the “Public Warrants”) and 11,079,230 warrants issued in private placements in connection with the IPO
−Removed: and the Merger (the “Private Placement Warrants”) (see note 16).
−Removed: The Company has previously classified its Public Warrants
−Removed: and Private Placement Warrants (collectively, the “warrants”) as equity.
−Removed: SEC’s Public Statement discussed “certain features of warrants issued in SPAC transactions”
−Removed: that “may be common
−Removed: across many entities.”
−Removed: The Public Statement indicated that when one or more of such features is included in a warrant, the warrant
−Removed: “should be classified as a liability measured at fair value, with changes in fair value each period reported in earnings.”
−Removed: Following consideration of the guidance in the Public Statement, and after consultation with the Company’s independent registered
−Removed: public accounting firm, Management has concluded that the warrants do not meet the conditions to be classified in equity and instead,
−Removed: the warrants meet the definition of a derivative under ASC 815, under which the Company should record the warrants as liabilities on
−Removed: the Company's balance sheet.
−Removed: has determined that information previously reported in the Annual Report on Form 10-K of the Company, filed with the SEC on March 30,
−Removed: 2020, should no longer be relied upon due to changes required for alignment with the SEC’s Public Statement.
−Removed: Information contained
−Removed: within this Annual Report has been restated in line with this determination.

−Removed: affected periods are as follows:

−Removed: of Goodwill and Long-Lived Assets
−Removed: We test for goodwill impairment at least
−Removed: annually on the last day of our fiscal period, and whenever other facts and circumstances indicate that the carrying value may
−Removed: not be recoverable.
−Removed: For goodwill impairment evaluations, we first make a qualitative assessment to determine if goodwill is likely
−Removed: to be impaired.
−Removed: If it is more-likely-than-not that a reporting unit’s fair value is less than its carrying value, we then
−Removed: compare the fair value of the reporting unit to its respective carrying amount.
−Removed: Goodwill is carried, and therefore tested, at the
−Removed: reporting unit level.
−Removed: We have three segments, Server Based Gaming, Virtual Sports and Acquired Businesses, as detailed in Note
−Removed: If the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, the amount of the impairment loss, if any, will be
−Removed: measured by comparing the implied fair value of goodwill to its carrying amount and would be charged to operations as an impairment
−Removed: A qualitative test was carried out as of December 31, 2019, December 31, 2018 and September 30, 2018 and no impairment was
−Removed: required at any of these dates.
−Removed: assess the recoverability of long-lived assets and intangible assets with finite useful lives whenever events arise or circumstances
−Removed: change that indicate the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.
−Removed: Recoverability of long-lived assets (or asset groups)
−Removed: to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of the asset (or asset group) to the expected net future
−Removed: undiscounted cash flows to be generated by that asset (or asset group) or, for identifiable intangibles with finite useful lives,
−Removed: by determining whether the amortization of the intangible asset balance over its remaining life can be recovered through expected
−Removed: net future undiscounted cash flows.
−Removed: The amount of impairment of other long-lived assets and intangible assets with finite lives
−Removed: is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair market value of the asset.
−Removed: As a result of
−Removed: the Company’s change in strategic direction of certain of its operations, the Company determined that certain of its long-lived
−Removed: and other assets were impaired as of September 30, 2018.
−Removed: Accordingly, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $7.7 million
−Removed: for the year ended September 30, 2018, which consisted of $4.9 million of software, $1.9 million of prepaid expenses and other
−Removed: current assets, $0.6 million of unbilled accounts receivable and $0.3 million of trade receivables.
−Removed: Method Investment
−Removed: investments in entities over which the Company exercises significant influence, but which do not meet the requirements for consolidation,

−Removed: On October 1, 2019, the Company acquired a 40% noncontrolling interest in Innov8
−Removed: Gaming Limited in connection with the Acquisition (see Note 2).
−Removed: The value of the Company’s equity method investment
−Removed: was $0.7 million as of December 31, 2019.
−Removed: The Company’s share of earnings from its equity method investee, which was
−Removed: not material for the year ended December 31, 2019, is presented in loss from equity method investee in the consolidated
−Removed: statements of operations.
−Removed: Company evaluates its equity method investment for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying
−Removed: amounts of such investment may not be recoverable.
−Removed: The difference between the carrying value of the equity method investment and
−Removed: its estimated fair value is recognized as an impairment charge when the loss in value is deemed other-than-temporary.
−Removed: Revenue and Deferred Cost of Sales, excluding depreciation and amortization
−Removed: revenue arises from the timing differences between the shipment or installation of gaming terminals and systems products and the
−Removed: satisfaction of all revenue recognition criteria consistent with our revenue recognition policy, as well as prepayment of contracts
−Removed: which are recognized ratably over a service period, such as maintenance or licensing fees.
−Removed: Deferred cost of sales, excluding depreciation
−Removed: and amortization, recorded as prepaid expenses and other assets, consists of the direct costs associated with the manufacture
−Removed: of gaming equipment and systems products for which revenue has been deferred.
−Removed: Amounts expected to be recognized as revenue within
−Removed: the 12 months following the balance sheet date are classified as deferred revenue in current liabilities.
−Removed: Amounts not expected
−Removed: to be recognized as revenue within the 12 months following the balance sheet date are classified as deferred revenue, net of current
−Removed: issuance costs incurred in connection with the Company’s debt are capitalized and amortized as interest expense over the

−Removed: Stock Purchase Warrants and Derivative Financial Instruments
−Removed: Company reviews any common stock purchase warrants and other freestanding derivative financial instruments at each balance sheet
−Removed: date and classifies them on the consolidated balance sheet as:
−Removed: if they (i) require physical settlement or net-share settlement, or (ii) gives the Company a choice of net-cash settlement
−Removed: or settlement in its own shares (physical settlement or net-share settlement), or
−Removed: or liabilities if they (i) require net-cash settlement (including a requirement to net cash settle the contract if an event
−Removed: occurs and if that event is outside the Company’s control), or (ii) give the counterparty a choice of net-cash settlement
−Removed: or settlement in shares (physical settlement or net-share settlement).
−Removed: Company assesses classification of its common stock purchase warrants and other freestanding derivatives at each reporting date to determine
−Removed: whether a change in classification between assets and liabilities is required.
−Removed: At December 31, 2019, and September 30, 2018, the Company
−Removed: considered that the warrants did not meet the criteria for equity classification and must be recorded as liabilities.
−Removed: As the warrants
−Removed: meet the definition of a derivative as contemplated in ASC 815, the warrants are measured at fair value at inception and at each reporting
−Removed: date in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement, with changes in fair value recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Operations
−Removed: and Comprehensive Loss in the period of change.
−Removed: The Company also determined that its obligation to settle certain awards in either
−Removed: cash or stock satisfied the criteria for classification as a derivative financial instrument at December 31, 2019 and September 30, 2018
−Removed: (see Note 17).
−Removed: time to time we enter into foreign currency forward contracts to mitigate the risk associated with cash payments required to be

−Removed: Policy for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
−Removed: ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”), provides the disclosure requirements for derivatives and hedging activities
−Removed: with the intent to provide users of financial statements with an enhanced understanding of:
−Removed: (a) how and why an entity uses derivative
−Removed: instruments, (b) how the entity accounts for derivative instruments and related hedged items, and (c) how derivative instruments
−Removed: and related hedged items affect an entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows.
−Removed: Further, qualitative
−Removed: disclosures are required that explain the Company’s objectives and strategies for using derivatives, as well as quantitative
−Removed: disclosures about the fair value of and gains and losses on derivative instruments, and disclosures about credit-risk-related
−Removed: contingent features in derivative instruments.
−Removed: required by ASC 815, the Company records all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value.
−Removed: The accounting for changes
−Removed: in the fair value of derivatives depends on the intended use of the derivative, whether the Company has elected to designate a
−Removed: derivative in a hedging relationship and apply hedge accounting and whether the hedging relationship has satisfied the criteria
−Removed: necessary to apply hedge accounting.
−Removed: Derivatives designated and qualifying as a hedge of the exposure to changes in the fair value
−Removed: of an asset, liability, or firm commitment attributable to a particular risk, such as interest rate risk, are considered fair
−Removed: value hedges.
−Removed: Derivatives designated and qualifying as a hedge of the exposure to variability in expected future cash flows, or
−Removed: other types of forecasted transactions, are considered cash flow hedges.
−Removed: Derivatives may also be designated as hedges of the foreign
−Removed: currency exposure of a net investment in a foreign operation.
−Removed: Hedge accounting generally provides for the matching of the timing
−Removed: of gain or loss recognition on the hedging instrument with the recognition of the changes in the fair value of the hedged asset
−Removed: or liability that are attributable to the hedged risk in a fair value hedge or the earnings effect of the hedged forecasted transactions
−Removed: in a cash flow hedge.
−Removed: The Company may enter into derivative contracts that are intended to economically hedge certain of its risk,
−Removed: even though hedge accounting does not apply or the Company elects not to apply hedge accounting.
−Removed: accordance with the FASB’s fair value measurement guidance in ASU 2011-04, “Fair Value Measurements,”
−Removed: made an accounting policy election to measure the credit risk of its derivative financial instruments that are subject to master
−Removed: netting agreements on a net basis by counterparty portfolio.
−Removed: Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606 –
−Removed: Revenue from Contracts with Customers”
−Removed: (“ASC 606”) as of January 1, 2019 using the modified retrospective method.
−Removed: This method allows the Company to apply
−Removed: ASC 606 to new contracts entered into after January 1, 2019, and to its existing contracts for which revenue earned through December
−Removed: 31, 2018 has been recognized under the guidance in effect prior to the effective date of ASC 606.
−Removed: The revenue recognition processes
−Removed: the Company applied prior to adoption of ASC 606 align with the recognition and measurement guidance of the new standard, therefore

−Removed: goods and services, to a customer.
−Removed: Revenue is recognized when performance obligations are satisfied and the customer obtains control

−Removed: The amount of revenue recognized reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be
−Removed: entitled to receive in exchange for goods or services.
−Removed: Under the standard, a contract’s transaction price is allocated to
−Removed: each distinct performance obligation.
−Removed: To determine revenue recognition for arrangements that the Company determines are within

−Removed: the contracts with a customer;
−Removed: the performance obligations within the contract, including whether they are distinct and capable of being distinct in the

−Removed: the transaction price;
−Removed: the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract;

−Removed: can be identified.
−Removed: The contract must also have commercial substance, and it must be probable that the Company will collect the
−Removed: consideration to which it will be entitled.
−Removed: entered into at or near the same time with the same customer or related parties of the customer are accounted for as one contract
−Removed: if any of the following criteria are met:
−Removed: were negotiated as a single commercial package (including whether a contract would be loss-making without taking into account
−Removed: the consideration received under another contract)
−Removed: Consideration
−Removed: in one contract depends on the other contract
−Removed: or services (or some of the goods or services) are a single performance obligation.
−Removed: Identify performance obligations
−Removed: obligations are identified by considering whether a good or service is distinct.
−Removed: The Company considers a good or service to be
−Removed: distinct only when the customer can benefit from it either on its own or together with other resources that are readily available,
−Removed: and when the promise to transfer the good or service to the customer is separately identifiable from other promises in the contract.
−Removed: Company applies the series guidance to its performance obligations where the following criteria apply:
−Removed: distinct good or service in the series meets the criteria to be a performance obligation satisfied over time.
−Removed: same method would be used to measure progress toward complete satisfaction of the performance obligation to transfer each
−Removed: distinct good or service in the series to the customer.
−Removed: Determine the transaction price
−Removed: Company considers all amounts to which it has rights in exchange for the goods or services transferred in determining the transaction
−Removed: This includes fixed and variable consideration.
−Removed: Typically, consideration is stated in the contract with the customer.
−Removed: Company assesses usage-based fees to determine whether they qualify as variable consideration.
−Removed: It also considers the impact of
−Removed: any liquidated damages clauses or service level agreements.
−Removed: the Company’s performance obligations are determined to be a series, variable consideration is not estimated upfront in

−Removed: allocates the transaction price in proportion to those standalone selling prices.
−Removed: Where possible, the Company uses the price charged

−Removed: Changes to assumptions such as market-based
−Removed: factors do not trigger a reassessment.
−Removed: Determining whether a contract contains a lease requires judgement.
−Removed: In general, arrangements
−Removed: are considered to be a lease when all of the following apply:
−Removed: conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration;
−Removed: have substantially all economic benefits from the use of the asset;
−Removed: can direct the use of the identified asset.
−Removed: terms of a lease arrangement determine how a lease is classified and the resulting income statement recognition.
−Removed: When the terms
−Removed: of a lease effectively transfer control of the underlying asset, the lease represents an in substance financed purchase (sale)
−Removed: of an asset and the lease is classified as a finance lease by the lessee and a sales-type lease by the lessor.
−Removed: When a lease does
−Removed: not effectively transfer control of the underlying asset to the lessee, but the lessor obtains a guarantee for the value of the
−Removed: asset from a third party, the lessor would classify a lease as a direct financing lease.
−Removed: All other leases are classified as operating

−Removed: short-term portion of the lease liabilities amounted to $3.6 million and
−Removed: long-term portion of the lease liabilities amounted to $5.2 million.
−Removed: assets and lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term
−Removed: at commencement date.
−Removed: As our leases do not provide an implicit rate, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on the information
−Removed: available at January 1, 2019 or commencement date, if later, in determining the present value of future payments.
−Removed: The lease ROU
−Removed: asset includes any lease payment made and initial direct costs incurred.
−Removed: Our lease terms may include options to extend or terminate
−Removed: the lease which are included in the measurement of the ROU assets and lease liabilities when it is reasonably certain that we
−Removed: will exercise that option.
−Removed: lease expense for minimum lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
−Removed: have lease agreements with lease and non-lease components.
−Removed: The Company did not make the election to treat the lease and non-lease
−Removed: components as a single component and considers the non-lease components as a separate unit of account.
−Removed: Company has elected not to apply the recognition requirements of ASC 842 to short-term leases.
−Removed: We recognize the lease payments
−Removed: for short-term leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term and variable lease payments in the period in which the obligation
−Removed: for those payments is incurred
−Removed: the Company as lessor
−Removed: Company’s lease arrangements are a mixture of sales-type leases and operating leases.
−Removed: lease receivables are recognized based on the net investment in the lease, at the present value of future minimum lease payments
−Removed: receivable over the lease term, plus any guaranteed residual value of the underlying asset, at the commencement date.
−Removed: discount rate used in determining the present value of the future minimum lease payments is the rate implicit in the lease.
−Removed: is calculated using the fair value of the underlying asset and the present value of any unguaranteed residual value.

−Removed: value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in
−Removed: the principal or most advantageous market for the asset and liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at
−Removed: the measurement date.
−Removed: We estimate the fair value of our assets and liabilities utilizing an established three-level hierarchy.
−Removed: The hierarchy is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date as
−Removed: prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
−Removed: inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets with insufficient
−Removed: volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets), or model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs are observable
−Removed: or can be derived principally from or corroborated with observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets
−Removed: or liabilities.
−Removed: Level 2 inputs also include non-binding market consensus prices that can be corroborated with observable market
−Removed: data, as well as quoted prices that were adjusted for security-specific restrictions.
−Removed: inputs that are supported by little or no market activity that are significant to the fair value of the asset or liability.
−Removed: Level 3 inputs also include non-binding market consensus prices or non-binding broker quotes that are unable to be corroborated
−Removed: with observable market data.
−Removed: The fair value of our financial assets and
−Removed: liabilities is determined by reference to market data and other valuation techniques as appropriate.
−Removed: We believe the fair value
−Removed: of our financial instruments approximates their recorded values.

−Removed: 3 liabilities are valued using unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the
−Removed: fair value of the derivative liabilities.
−Removed: For fair value measurements categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy,
−Removed: the Company’s principal financial officer, who reports to the principal executive officer, determines its valuation policies
−Removed: and procedures.
−Removed: The development and determination of the unobservable inputs for Level 3 fair value measurements and fair value

−Removed: 3 financial liabilities consisted of the earnout liability for which there was no current market for these securities such that
−Removed: the determination of fair value required significant judgment or estimation.
−Removed: Changes in fair value measurements categorized within

−Removed: (see Note 16).

−Removed: The latest triennial actuarial valuation

−Removed: Under the Recovery Plan and Schedule of Contributions agreed between

−Removed: trustee has made an allowance for the pension scheme liability profile when deciding the investment strategy of the pension scheme.
−Removed: Since the pension scheme is closed to new entrants and ceased future accrual with effect from March 31, 2010, it has continued

−Removed: Therefore, the trustee reviews the investment strategy regularly to check whether any changes are needed.
−Removed: When considering the investment strategy, the trustee has taken into account the effect of any possible increases in the deficit
−Removed: reduction contributions on the financial position of the Company, and the extent to which the Company will be able to bear these
−Removed: scheme’s investment policy is to maximize long-term financial return commensurate with security and minimizing risk.
−Removed: is achieved by holding a portfolio of marketable investments that avoids over-concentration of investment and spreads assets both
−Removed: over industries and geographies.
−Removed: In setting investment strategy, the trustees considered the lowest risk strategy that they could
−Removed: adopt in relation to the scheme’s liabilities and designed an asset allocation to achieve a higher return while maintaining
−Removed: a cautious approach to meeting the scheme’s liabilities.
−Removed: The trustees undertook a review of investment strategy and took
−Removed: advice from their investment advisors.
−Removed: They considered a full range of asset classes, the risks and rewards of a range of alternative
−Removed: asset allocation strategies, the suitability of each asset class and the need for appropriate diversification.
−Removed: The pension scheme
−Removed: has implemented a new investment strategy over the year to reduce risk without adversely affecting return.
−Removed: The current strategy
−Removed: is to hold 22% in a diversified growth fund, 12% in diversified credit, 15% in equity-linked bonds, 6% in a liability-driven investment

−Removed: pension benefit costs are calculated using various actuarial assumptions and methodologies.
−Removed: These assumptions include discount
−Removed: rates, inflation, expected returns on plan assets, mortality rates and other factors.
−Removed: The assumptions used in recording the obligations
−Removed: under our plans represent our best estimates, and we believe that they are reasonable, based on information as to historical experience
−Removed: and performance as well as other factors that might cause future expectations to differ from past trends.
−Removed: Differences in actual
−Removed: experience or changes in assumptions may affect our pension obligations and future expense.
−Removed: The principal factors contributing
−Removed: to actuarial gains and losses each year are (1) changes in the discount rate used to value pension benefit obligations as of the
−Removed: measurement date and (2) differences between the expected and the actual return on plan assets.
−Removed: valuation methodologies used for pension assets measured at fair value are as follows.
−Removed: There have been no changes in the methodologies
−Removed: used at December 31, 2019, December 31, 2018 and September 30, 2018.
−Removed: diversified fund is valued at fair value by using the net asset value (“NAV”) of shares held by the plan at the year
−Removed: The NAV of the diversified fund is not publicly quoted.
−Removed: The majority of the underlying securities have observable Level 1
−Removed: or 2 pricing inputs, including quoted prices for similar assets in active or non-active markets.
−Removed: ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements
−Removed: and Disclosures, allows NAV per share to serve as a practical expedient to estimate the fair value of the diversified fund.
−Removed: 820 also states that where NAV is allowed to be used as an estimate of fair value, if the reporting entity has the ability to
−Removed: redeem its investment at NAV as of the measurement date, that investment shall be categorized as a Level II fair value measurement.
−Removed: If the investment cannot be redeemed at the measurement date, but may be redeemable in the future, but at an uncertain date, the
−Removed: investment shall be categorized as a Level 3 fair value measurement.
−Removed: of December 31, 2019, December 31, 2018 and September 30, 2018, the diversified fund was redeemable at NAV as of the measurement
−Removed: dates and, therefore, classified as Level 2.
−Removed: respect to the buy-in contract, it was agreed during the year ended September 27, 2014, that 281 pensioners of the plan would
−Removed: be insured by means of a pensioner buy-in.
−Removed: The liabilities and assets in respect of insured pensioners are assumed to match for
−Removed: the purposes of ASC 715, Pensions - Retirement Benefits, disclosures (i.e.
−Removed: the full benefits have been insured).
−Removed: adopted has therefore been to include within the total value of assets, an amount equal to the calculated total liability value

−Removed: Company’s chief decision-maker reviews financial information presented on a consolidated basis, accompanied by disaggregated
−Removed: information about revenue and operating profit by operating unit.

−Removed: As a result of the vesting on December
−Removed: 31, 2019 of 273,316 RSUs that had been granted under the Company’s 2018 Plan, the Company issued a total of 166,959 net shares
−Removed: to participants in January 2020 and withheld the balance for taxes.
−Removed: On January 15, 2020, the Company entered
−Removed: into two interest rate swaps with UBS AG designed to protect the Company against adverse fluctuations in interest rates by reducing
−Removed: its exposure to variability in cash flows on a portion of the current floating rate debt facilities.
−Removed: The swaps fix the variable
−Removed: interest rate of the current debt facilities and provide protection over potential interest rate increases by providing a fixed
−Removed: rate of interest payment in return.
−Removed: These interest rate swaps are for £95 million at a fixed rate of 0.9255% based on the
−Removed: 6-month LIBOR rate and for €60 million at a fixed rate of 0.102% based on the 6 month EUROLIBOR rate and are effective until
−Removed: maturity on October 1, 2023.
−Removed: As a result of the spread of COVID-19 coronavirus
−Removed: outbreak and subsequent government controls across the territories in which the Company operates (including, but not limited to,
−Removed: the United States, United Kingdom, Greece and Italy) economic uncertainties have arisen which will negatively impact future revenues,
−Removed: at least in the short term, while our customers’
−Removed: respective land-based venues are closed.
−Removed: Market conditions could remain
−Removed: volatile for some months, and financial impacts could occur, including impairments to receivables, inventory, goodwill and other
−Removed: long lived assets including assets held by the pension scheme, where it is possible that the funded status of the plan recognized
−Removed: on the balance sheet has deteriorated if post balance sheet experience is taken into account.
−Removed: As at the date of filing, indications
−Removed: are that the value of the pension scheme benefit obligation has decreased to a greater extent to that of the assets, with the result
−Removed: that, if reported now, the scheme would recognize an overfunded status.
−Removed: Market conditions remain volatile, however, and any associated
−Removed: actuarial loss (or gain) over the fiscal year to December 31, 2020 will be added to the net actuarial loss (or gain) in accumulated
−Removed: other comprehensive income and amortized over future fiscal years.
−Removed: The potential impact across all asset categories is currently
−Removed: unknown, and will depend, primarily, on the extent of the length of controls.
