−Removed: control over financial reporting with respect to our financial statement close and reporting process, as described below.
−Removed: Notwithstanding
−Removed: such material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting, our management concluded that our condensed consolidated financial
−Removed: statements included in this Annual Report fairly present, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations and
−Removed: cash flows as of the dates and for the periods presented in conformity with GAAP.

+Added: Based on their evaluation, our then Chief Executive Officer

+Added: 1 to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31,
+Added: 2021 (the “Amended 2021 Annual Report”), our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer,

Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
−Removed: discussed elsewhere in this Annual Report, we completed the Business Combination on October 29, 2021.
−Removed: Prior to the Business Combination,
−Removed: we were a special purpose acquisition company formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition,
−Removed: stock purchase, reorganization or other similar business combination with one or more operating businesses.
−Removed: As a result, previously existing
−Removed: internal controls are no longer applicable or comprehensive enough as of the assessment date as our operations prior to the Business Combination
−Removed: were insignificant compared to those of the consolidated entity post-Business Combination.
−Removed: The design of internal controls over financial
−Removed: reporting for the Company post-Business Combination has required and will continue to require significant time and resources from management
−Removed: and other personnel.
−Removed: As a result, management was unable, without incurring unreasonable effort or expense, to conduct an assessment of
−Removed: our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2021.
−Removed: Accordingly, we are excluding management’s report on internal control
−Removed: over financial reporting pursuant to Section 215.02 of the SEC Division of Corporation Finance’s Regulation S-K Compliance & Disclosure
−Removed: Interpretations.
−Removed: In addition, as an emerging growth company, management’s assessment of internal control over financial reporting
−Removed: was not subject to attestation by our independent registered public accounting firm.
−Removed: Weakness in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
−Removed: connection with the audits of our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report, our management has
−Removed: identified a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2021 and 2020 relating to
−Removed: deficiencies in the design and operation of the procedures relating to the closing of our financial statements.
+Added: recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of
+Added: achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost benefit relationship of possible
+Added: controls and procedures.
+Added: In connection with this Report, our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer,
+Added: reevaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)
+Added: under the Exchange Act) as of December 31, 2022.
+Added: Based on such reevaluation, our Chief Executive Officer concluded that, as of the
+Added: end of the period covered by this Report, our disclosure controls and procedures were still not effective due to the material
+Added: weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting with respect to our financial statement close and reporting process, as
+Added: described further below.
+Added: As a result of this conclusion, we retained third-party accounting consultants who performed additional
+Added: analysis as deemed necessary to ensure that our financial statements were prepared in accordance with GAAP.
+Added: Accordingly, management
+Added: believes that the financial statements included in this Report present fairly in all material respects our financial position,
+Added: results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.
+Added: The issues which were identified during the initial and subsequent review continued until the new management team
+Added: for the company began addressing them in the fall of 2022.
+Added: Efforts to strengthen and improve internal controls over accounting and financial
+Added: reporting are ongoing.
+Added: Weaknesses in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
+Added: connection with the audit of our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Report, our management has identified material
+Added: weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2022 and 2021 relating to deficiencies in the design and
+Added: operation of the procedures relating to the closing of our financial statements.
These include:
−Removed: our lack of a sufficient number of personnel with an appropriate level of knowledge and experience in accounting for complex or
−Removed: non-routine transactions, (ii) the fact that our policies and procedures with respect to the review, supervision and monitoring of
−Removed: our accounting and reporting functions were either not designed and in place or not operating effectively;
−Removed: (iii) the timely closing
−Removed: of financial books at the quarter and fiscal year end, and (iv) incomplete segregation of duties in certain types of transactions
−Removed: and processes.
−Removed: have commenced measures to remediate the identified material weakness, including (i) adding personnel with sufficient accounting knowledge;
−Removed: (ii) adopting a more rigorous period-end review process for financial reporting;
−Removed: (iii) adopting improved period close processes and accounting
−Removed: processes, and (iv) clearly defining and documenting the segregation of duties for certain transactions and processes.
−Removed: The implementation
−Removed: of our remediation is ongoing and will require validation and testing of the design and operating effectiveness of internal controls over
−Removed: a sustained period of financial reporting cycles.
−Removed: We may also conclude that additional measures may be required to remediate the material
−Removed: weakness in our internal control over financial reporting.
−Removed: cannot assure you that the measures we have taken to date will be sufficient to remediate the material weakness we identified or avoid
−Removed: the identification of additional material weaknesses in the future.
−Removed: If the steps we take do not remediate the material weakness in a timely
−Removed: manner, there could continue to be a reasonable possibility that this control deficiency or others could result in a material misstatement
−Removed: of our annual or interim financial statements that would not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
+Added: (i) our lack of a sufficient number of
+Added: personnel with an appropriate level of knowledge and experience in accounting for complex or non-routine transactions, (ii) the fact
+Added: that our policies and procedures with respect to the review, supervision and monitoring of our accounting and reporting functions were
+Added: either not designed and in place or not operating effectively;
+Added: (iii) our inability to complete the timely closing of financial books
+Added: at the quarter and fiscal year end, and (iv) incomplete segregation of duties in certain types of transactions and processes.
+Added: Specifically,
+Added: management did not design and maintain sufficient procedures and controls related to revenue recognition including those related to ensuring
+Added: accuracy of revenue recognized from non-routine transactions such as the sales of LotteryLink Credits.
+Added: As a result, we determined that
+Added: there was an overstatement of revenue in the consolidated statement of operations of approximately $52.1 million during the year ended
+Added: December 31, 2021, which required a restatement of the previously issued financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021 contained
+Added: in the Amended 2021 Annual Report.
+Added: have begun implementing remediation steps to improve our internal control over financial reporting and to remediate the identified
+Added: material weaknesses, including (i) adding personnel with sufficient accounting knowledge;
+Added: (ii) adopting a more rigorous period-end
+Added: review process for financial reporting;
+Added: (iii) adopting improved period close processes and accounting processes, and (iv) clearly
+Added: defining and documenting the segregation of duties for certain transactions and processes.
+Added: Management has expanded and will continue
+Added: to enhance our system of identifying transactions and evaluating and implementing the accounting standards that apply to our
+Added: financial statements, including through enhanced analyses by our personnel and third-party professionals with whom we consult
+Added: regarding complex accounting applications.
+Added: We intend to continue take steps to remediate the material weaknesses described above and
+Added: further continue re-assessing the design of controls, the testing of controls and modifying processes designed to improve our
+Added: internal control over financial reporting.
+Added: The Company plans to continue to assess its internal controls and procedures and intends
+Added: to take further action as necessary or appropriate to address any other matters it identifies or are brought to its attention.
+Added: will not be able to fully remediate these material weaknesses until these steps have been completed and have been operating
+Added: effectively for a sufficient period of time.
+Added: The implementation of our remediation will be ongoing and will require validation and
+Added: testing of the design and operating effectiveness of internal controls over a sustained period of financial reporting cycles.
+Added: also conclude that additional measures may be required to remediate the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial
+Added: cannot assure you that the measures we take will be sufficient to remediate the material weaknesses we identified or avoid the identification
+Added: of additional material weaknesses in the future.
+Added: If the steps we take do not remediate the material weaknesses in a timely manner, there
+Added: could continue to be a reasonable possibility that this control deficiency or others could result in another material misstatement of
+Added: our annual or interim financial statements that would not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

−Removed: for providing the performance obligation directly to the customers and assumes fulfilment risk of all lottery game sales as it retains
−Removed: physical possession of lottery game sales tickets from time of sale until the point of redemption.
−Removed: The Company also retains inventory
−Removed: risk an all lottery game sales tickets as they would be responsible for any potential winnings related to lost or unredeemable tickets

−Removed: with multiple performance obligations
−Removed: The Company’s
−Removed: contracts with customers may include multiple performance obligations.
−Removed: For such arrangements, management allocates revenue to each performance
−Removed: obligation based on its relative standalone selling price.

−Removed: to the individual members.
−Removed: It is the responsibility of the individual members to report the taxable income and tax credits, and to pay
−Removed: any resulting income taxes.
−Removed: Therefore, in relation to the income and losses incurred by the limited liability companies, they have been
−Removed: consolidated in the Company’s tax return and provision based upon its relative ownership.
−Removed: taxes are accounted for in accordance with ASC 740, “ Income Taxes ” (“ASC 740”), using the asset and liability
−Removed: Under this method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to
−Removed: temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases.
−Removed: Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which
−Removed: these temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.
−Removed: The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in
−Removed: tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
−Removed: A valuation allowance is provided for those deferred
−Removed: tax assets for which it is more likely than not that the related benefit will not be realized.
−Removed: Company records uncertain tax positions in accordance with ASC 740 on the basis of a two-step process in which (i) the Company
−Removed: determines whether it is more likely than not that the tax positions will be sustained on the basis of the technical merits of the position;
−Removed: and (ii) for those tax positions that meet the more likely than not recognition threshold, the Company recognizes the largest amount
−Removed: of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely to be realized upon ultimate settlement with the related tax authority.

−Removed: Value of Financial Instruments
−Removed: Company determines the fair value of its financial instruments in accordance with the provisions of ASC 820, Fair Value
−Removed: Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”) , which establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes
−Removed: the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value.
−Removed: The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in
−Removed: active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs ( Level
−Removed: 3 measurements).
−Removed: The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under ASC 820 are described below:
−Removed: 1 — Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement
−Removed: date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities
−Removed: 2 — Quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs that are observable, either
−Removed: directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability
−Removed: 3 — Valuation is generated from model-based techniques that use significant assumptions
−Removed: not observable in the market.
−Removed: These unobservable assumptions reflect our own estimates of
−Removed: assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.
−Removed: Determination
−Removed: of fair val ue and the resulting hierarchy requires the use of observable market data whenever available.
−Removed: classification of an asset or liability in the hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the measurement
−Removed: of fair value.
−Removed: value of stock options and warrants
−Removed: uses the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to calculate the fair value of stock options and warrants.
−Removed: Use of this method requires
−Removed: management to make assumptions and estimates about the expected life of options and warrants, anticipated forfeitures, the risk-free rate,
−Removed: and the volatility of the Company’s share price.
−Removed: In making these assumptions and estimates, management relies on historical market
