NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
Note 1. Nature of Business and Significant Accounting
Policies
Organization and Nature of Business
Gaming Partners International Corporation
(GPIC or the Company) is headquartered in North Las Vegas, Nevada. Our business activities include the manufacture and sale of
casino currencies, playing cards, table layouts, gaming furniture, table accessories, dice, roulette wheels, and radio frequency
identification (RFID) readers and software, all of which are used with casino table games such as blackjack, poker, baccarat, craps,
and roulette.
The Company has three operating subsidiaries:
Gaming Partners International USA, Inc. (GPI USA) (including GPI Mexicana S.A. de C.V. (GPI Mexicana), our maquiladora manufacturing
operation in Mexico, and GPI USA Blue Springs, our manufacturing facility in Missouri); Gaming Partners International SAS (GPI
SAS); and Gaming Partners International Asia Limited (GPI Asia). Our subsidiaries have the following distribution and
product focus:
|
•
|
GPI USA sells in the United States, Canada, the Caribbean, and Latin America. GPI USA sells our full product line, with most
of the products manufactured in either San Luis Rio Colorado, Mexico, or Blue Springs, Missouri. The remainder of our products
is either manufactured in France or purchased from United States vendors. We warehouse inventory in San Luis, Arizona; Blue Springs,
Missouri; and North Las Vegas, Nevada. We have sales offices in North Las Vegas, Nevada; Atlantic City, New Jersey; Gulfport, Mississippi;
and Blue Springs, Missouri.
|
|
•
|
GPI SAS sells primarily in Europe and Africa out of its office in Beaune, France. GPI SAS predominantly sells casino currencies,
including both American-style, known as chips, and European-style, known as plaques and jetons. Most of the products sold by GPI
SAS are manufactured in France, with the remainder manufactured in Mexico.
|
|
•
|
GPI Asia, located in Macau S.A.R., China, distributes our full product line in the Asia-Pacific region. GPI Asia also sells
table layouts that it manufactures in Macau S.A.R.
|
Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Consolidation and Presentation.
The accompanying
unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of GPIC and its wholly-owned subsidiaries GPI SAS, GPI
USA, and GPI Asia. All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. We use the equity
method to account for investments in companies if the investment provides the ability to exercise significant influence, but not
control, over operating and financial policies of the investee. Our proportionate share of the net income or loss of these companies
is included in consolidated net earnings. Judgment regarding the level of influence over each equity method investment includes
considering key factors such as our ownership interest or participation in policy-making decisions and material intercompany transactions.
In the event we no longer have the ability to exercise significant influence over an equity-method investee, we would discontinue
accounting for the investment under the equity method.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated
financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States (U.S. GAAP) for interim financial information and in the form prescribed by the Securities and Exchange
Commission (SEC), and do not include all of the information and notes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. These
statements should be read in conjunction with our annual audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in
our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016, filed with the SEC on March 24,
2017.
These unaudited condensed consolidated financial
statements, in the opinion of management, reflect only normal and recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of results
and cash flows for the interim periods presented. The results of operations for an interim period are not necessarily indicative
of the results for any other interim period or a full fiscal year.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards.
In March
2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) ASU 2017-17,
Compensation —
Retirement Benefits (Topic 715): Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit
Cost
. The amendments require that an employer report the service cost component in the same line item or items as other compensation
costs arising from services rendered by the pertinent employees during the period. The amendments are effective for annual periods
beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those annual periods. The Company does not expect the adoption
of this guidance to significantly impact the consolidated financial statements.
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04,
Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment
. These amendments eliminate Step
2 from the goodwill impairment test. The amendments are effective for annual or any interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal
years beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company does not expect the adoption of this guidance to significantly impact the
consolidated financial statements.
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01,
Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business
. These amendments clarify the definition of a
business. The amendments affect all companies and other reporting organizations that must determine whether they have acquired
or sold a business. The amendments are effective for public companies for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including
interim periods within those periods. The Company does not expect the adoption of this guidance to significantly impact the consolidated
financial statements.
In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-16,
Income Taxes (Topic 740): Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory
. These amendments require an entity to recognize
the income tax consequences of an intra-entity transfer of an asset other than inventory when the transfer occurs. The amendments
eliminate the exception for an intra-entity transfer of an asset other than inventory. The ASU becomes effective for annual reporting
periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. The Company
has not adopted this guidance for 2016 or to date in 2017 and is currently evaluating the impact of adoption but does not expect
the adoption to significantly impact the consolidated financial statements.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02,
Leases (Topic 842)
, to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by reporting lease assets and lease liabilities,
both finance (capital) and operating leases, on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. For
public companies, the updated guidance is effective for the financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December
15, 2018 (including interim periods within those fiscal years). Early adoption is permitted. The Company has not adopted this guidance
for 2016 or to date in 2017 and is currently evaluating the impact of adoption and will consult with accounting experts as needed
to assist with the implementation of this standard.
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09,
Revenues from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)
. This guidance applies to any entity that either enters into contracts
with customers to transfer goods or services or enters into contracts for the transfer of nonfinancial assets unless those contracts
are within the scope of other standards. This guidance supersedes existing revenue recognition guidance, including most industry-specific
guidance, as well as certain related guidance on accounting for contract costs. To further assist with adoption and implementation
of ASU 2014-09, the FASB issued the following ASUs:
|
•
|
ASU 2016-08 (Issued March 2016) -
Principal versus
Agent Consideration (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net)
|
|
•
|
ASU 2016-10 (Issued April 2016) -
Identifying Performance
Obligations and Licensing
|
|
•
|
ASU 2016-12 (Issued May 2016) -
Narrow-Scope Improvements
and Practical Expedients
|
|
•
|
ASU 2016-20 (Issued December 2016) -
Technical Corrections
and Improvements to Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers
|
The guidance provides for a five-step model
to determine the revenue recognized for the transfer of goods or services to customers that reflects the expected entitled consideration
in exchange for those goods or services. It also provides clarification for principal versus agent considerations and identifying
performance obligations. In addition, the FASB introduced practical expedients related to disclosures of remaining performance
obligations, as well as other amendments to guidance on collectability, non-cash consideration and the presentation of sales and
other similar taxes. Financial statement disclosures required under the guidance will enable users to understand the nature, amount,
timing, judgments and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows relating to customer contracts. The two permitted transition methods
under the guidance are the full retrospective approach or a cumulative effect adjustment to the opening retained earnings in the
year of adoption (cumulative effect approach). The guidance is effective in 2018, with early adoption permitted.
We are utilizing a comprehensive approach
to assess the impact of the guidance on our current accounting policies and practices to identify potential differences that would
result from applying the new requirements to our revenue contracts, including evaluation of our performance obligations. We continue
to evaluate the impact, if any, on changes to our business processes, systems and controls to support recognition and disclosure
under the new guidance and, based on the foregoing, we do not currently expect this guidance to have a material impact on our consolidated
financial statements. We are continuing with our implementation plan and currently expect to adopt the new guidance beginning in
2018 using the cumulative effect approach.
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards.
In
March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09,
Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718)
, to simplify several aspects
of the accounting for share-based payment award transactions including: income tax consequences; classification of awards as either
equity or liabilities; and classification on the statement of cash flows. The amendments are effective for public companies for
annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those annual periods. During the first quarter of
2017, the Company adopted this guidance on a prospective basis. The adoption of this guidance did not have a significant impact
on our consolidated financial statements. We did not change our accounting method for forfeitures. We continue to account for forfeitures
when they occur.
In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-11,
Inventory (Topic 330): Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory
. The guidance applies to any entity measuring inventory
using first-in, first-out or average cost. The main provision of this guidance requires an entity to measure inventory within the
scope of this ASU at the lower of cost and net realizable value. During the first quarter of 2017, the Company adopted this guidance.
A reporting entity should apply the amendments prospectively with earlier application permitted as of the beginning of an interim
or annual reporting period. The adoption of this guidance had no impact on our consolidated statements of income and comprehensive
income.
Note 2. Dolphin Asset Acquisition
On May 11, 2016, the Company entered into
and closed an Asset Purchase Agreement to purchase certain assets used in the design and manufacture of casino currency from Dolphin
Products Limited (Dolphin), a wholly owned subsidiary of Entertainment Gaming Asia Inc. (EGT). The purchased assets were primarily
equipment and inventory.
The acquisition was treated as an asset
acquisition. The total cost of the acquisition was $7.3 million, with $5.1 million paid in 2016, $1.1 million paid in 2017 and
$1.1 million, included in accrued liabilities, to be paid in May 2018. The acquisition cost has been allocated as follows (in thousands):

Note 8. Equity method investment
On May 31, 2017, GPIC
acquired 20% of the outstanding shares of Onlive Gaming SAS for $451,000. Onlive Gaming SAS is a company dedicated to the development
of electronic products using the RFID technology. The equity method was used to account for this investment because of our ability
to exercise significant influence, but not control, over operating and financial policies of Onlive Gaming SAS.
Note 9. Debt
On June 26, 2015, the
Company entered into a Credit Agreement with Nevada State Bank to borrow a combined $15.0 million, consisting of a $10.0 million
seven-year term loan and a $5.0 million five-year revolving loan. The Company borrowed the full amount under the term loan and
has not drawn on funds under the revolving loan. The term loan will mature on June 26, 2022, and the revolving loan will mature
on June 26, 2020. The Credit Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, and events of default, and affirmative,
negative and financial covenants. The covenants contain, among other things, limitations on the Company's and its subsidiaries'
ability to merge, consolidate, dispose of assets, or incur liens or certain indebtedness. The Company is required to maintain a
fixed charge coverage ratio greater than 1.15 to 1.00 and leverage ratio less than 3.00 to 1.00. The Company was in compliance
with all financial covenants as of June 30, 2017, and December 31, 2016.
Interest on funds borrowed
under the term loan and the revolving loan are charged at a rate per annum equal to LIBOR plus 2.25%. The term loan has a straight-line
seven-year amortization schedule.
At June 30, 2017, estimated
repayment obligations for the principal balance of long-term debt were as follows (in thousands):

Legal Proceedings and Contingencies
From time to time we are engaged in disputes
and claims that arise in the normal course of business. We believe that the ultimate outcome of these proceedings will not have
a material adverse impact on our consolidated financial position or results of operations, but the outcome of these actions is
inherently difficult to predict. There can be no assurance that we will prevail in any such litigation. Liabilities for material
claims against us are accrued when a loss is considered probable and can be reasonably estimated. Legal costs associated with claims
are expensed as incurred.
Note 11. Geographic and Product Line Information
We manufacture and sell casino table game
equipment in one operating segment - casino table game products. Although the Company derives its revenues from a number of different
product lines, the Company neither allocates resources based on the operating results from the individual product lines, nor manages
each individual product line as a separate business unit. Our chief operating decision maker is our Chief Executive Officer (CEO).
The CEO manages our operations on a consolidated basis to make decisions about overall corporate resource allocation and to assess
overall corporate profitability. Our CEO is also the chief operating manager for each of our entities in the United States, France,
and Macau S.A.R.; that is, the individual locations do not have “segment,” or “product line,” managers
who report to our CEO.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S
DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
The following discussion is intended to
assist in the understanding of our consolidated results of operations and our present financial condition and should be read in
conjunction with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes and the other financial information
included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying
notes contain additional detailed information that should be referred to when reviewing this material. Statements in this discussion
may be forward-looking. Such forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ
significantly from those expressed. See Item 1A. “Risk Factors,” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal
year ended December 31, 2016, filed with the SEC on March 24, 2017.
For a more extensive overview and information
on our products, as well as general information, see Item 1. “Business” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for
the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016, filed with the SEC on March 24, 2017.
Overview of Our Business
We custom manufacture and supply casino
currency, with multiple security and design options, playing cards, table layouts, gaming furniture, table accessories, dice, and
roulette wheels. We also provide multiple RFID technologies including low- and high-frequency RFID casino currency, RFID solutions
for casino currency (consisting of low- and high-frequency RFID casino currency readers, antennas, casino currency authentication
software, casino currency inventory software applications, and software maintenance services). Our products and services are used
with casino table games such as blackjack, poker, baccarat, craps, and roulette. GPIC sells its casino table game equipment under
the brand names of Paulson
®
, Bourgogne et Grasset
®
(BG
®
), Gemaco
®
,
Blue Chip
®
(BC
®
), Dolphin
®
and Bud Jones
®
.
GPIC is headquartered in North Las Vegas,
Nevada, with offices in Blue Springs, Missouri; Atlantic City, New Jersey; Gulfport, Mississippi; San Luis Rio Colorado, Mexico;
Beaune, France; and Macau S.A.R., China. We primarily sell our products to licensed casinos worldwide. We operate in one segment
and have three operating subsidiaries: GPI USA (including GPI Mexicana, our maquiladora manufacturing operation in Mexico, and
our manufacturing operation in Blue Springs, Missouri), GPI SAS, and GPI Asia. Our subsidiaries have the following distribution
and product focus:
|
•
|
GPI USA sells in the United States, Canada, the Caribbean, and Latin America. GPI USA sells our full product line, with most
of the products manufactured in either San Luis Rio Colorado, Mexico, or Blue Springs, Missouri. The remainder of our products
are either manufactured in France or purchased from United States vendors. We warehouse inventory in San Luis, Arizona; Blue Springs,
Missouri; and North Las Vegas, Nevada. We have sales offices in North Las Vegas, Nevada; Atlantic City, New Jersey; Gulfport, Mississippi;
and Blue Springs, Missouri.
|
|
•
|
GPI SAS sells primarily in Europe and Africa out of its office in Beaune, France. GPI SAS predominantly sells casino currencies,
including both American-style, known as chips, and European-style, known as plaques and jetons. Most of the products sold by GPI
SAS are manufactured in France, with the remainder manufactured in Mexico.
|
|
•
|
GPI Asia, located in Macau S.A.R., China, distributes our full product line in the Asia-Pacific region. GPI Asia also sells
table layouts that it manufactures in Macau S.A.R.
|
Historically, we have experienced significant
fluctuations in quarterly results primarily due to large, discrete currency orders as a result of casino openings, casino expansions,
or large replacement orders. Our backlog, which reflects signed orders scheduled to be delivered over the following twelve months,
was as follows at June 30, 2017 and 2016 (in millions):

Outlook
While we have had a strong sales backlog
in Asia since the beginning of 2017, it did not convert into revenue in the second quarter of 2017. A large order was produced
in the second quarter, but shipment and revenue recognition were delayed until the second half of 2017. Much of the Asia backlog
is scheduled for delivery, and revenue is currently expected to be recognized, in the third and fourth quarters of 2017. However,
the timing of casino opening dates and the number of tables actually allotted to each new casino will impact both the amount of
revenue we may recognize and the timing of revenue recognition.
Our backlog as of June 30, 2017, reflects
strong sales results in the Americas as well as Asia. Although margins in our playing card product line in the first six months
of 2017 were better than the last three months of 2016, we continue to experience operating issues and reduced margins arising
from the significant expansion of our facility in Blue Springs, Missouri. While we currently expect margins to continue to improve
in our playing card product line, results for the remainder of 2017 could continue to be negatively impacted.
Financial and Operational Highlights
For the second quarter of 2017, our revenues
were $16.3 million, a decrease of $4.0 million, or 20.0%, compared to revenues of $20.3 million for the same period of 2016. For
the second quarter of 2017, our net income was $49,000, a decrease of $2.0 million, or 97.8%, compared to a net income of
$2.1 million for the same period in 2016.
For the first six months of 2017, our revenues
were $35.2 million, a decrease of $1.2 million, or 3.4%, compared to revenues of $36.4 million for the same period of 2016. For
the first six months of 2017, our net income was $1.0 million, a decrease of $1.0 million, or 50.9%, compared to net income of
$2.0 million for the same period of 2016.
The decrease in our revenues and net income
for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 was primarily due to a decrease in casino currency sales in the Americas and Europe
and Africa, a decrease in sales of RFID solutions in Asia, and a reduction in both sales and profitability on our playing cards
product line.
Other Matters
See the discussion under “Contractual
Obligations and Commercial Commitments” in Part I, Item 2, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations” of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
Our condensed consolidated financial statements
included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, while unaudited, have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Financial statement
preparation requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue
and expenses, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial
statements are prepared using the same critical accounting estimates discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal
year ended December 31, 2016, filed with the SEC on March 24, 2017. Management bases its estimates on historical experience
and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis
for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual
results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Comparison of Operations for the Three and Six Months Ended
June 30, 2017 and 2016
Revenues
.
For the three
months ended June 30, 2017, our revenues were $16.3 million, a decrease of $4.0 million, or 20.0%, compared to revenues of $20.3
million for the same period in 2016.
For the six months ended June 30, 2017,
our revenues were $35.2 million, a decrease of $1.2 million, or 3.4%, compared to revenues of $36.4 million for the same period
of 2016.
The decrease in revenues was primarily attributable
to decreases in casino currency sales in the Americas and Europe and Africa, sales of RFID solutions in Asia, and sales of playing
cards.
Cost of Revenues.
For the
three months ended June 30, 2017, cost of revenues was $12.4 million, a decrease of $0.6 million, or 4.7%, compared to the
same period in 2016. As a percentage of revenues, our cost of revenues increased to 76.3% in 2017 compared to 64.0% in 2016.
For the six months ended June 30, 2017,
cost of revenues was $25.5 million, an increase of $0.3 million, or 1.4%, compared to cost of revenues of $25.2 million for the
same period in 2016. As a percentage of revenues, our cost of revenues increased to 72.5% in 2017 compared to 69.0% in 2016.
The increase in cost of revenues as a
percentage of revenues was driven by the same factors described under Revenues above and Gross Profit below. In addition, we continued
to experience operational challenges in our playing cards product line, which increased our cost and reduced our profitability.
Gross Profit.
For the three
months ended June 30, 2017, gross profit was $3.9 million, a decrease of $3.4 million, or 47.3%, compared to gross profit of $7.3
million for the same period in 2016. As a percentage of revenues, our gross profit decreased to 23.7% from 36.0%.
For the six months ended June 30, 2017,
gross profit was $9.7 million, a decrease of $1.6 million, or 14.2%, compared to gross profit of $11.3 million for the same period
in 2016. As a percentage of revenues, our gross profit decreased to 27.5% from 31.0%.
The decrease was primarily attributable
to decreases in
casino currency sales in the Americas
and Europe and Africa, sales of RFID solutions in Asia and sales of playing cards. The lower currency sales did not provide enough
volume to cover our fixed costs. The results were also negatively impacted by a reduced gross profit on our playing cards product
line compared to the second quarter of 2016 and the first six months of 2016. While playing card margins in the first and second
quarters of 2017 were significantly higher than those experienced in the fourth quarter of 2016, additional expenditures arising
from the opening of our new facility, one-time process improvement and equipment fine-tuning, and depreciation on new plant and
equipment resulted in lower margins in 2017 compared to the same period in 2016.

For the three months ended
June 30, 2017, selling, administrative, and research and development expenses were $3.8 million, a decrease of $0.6 million,
or 14.9%, compared to selling, administrative, and research and development expenses of $4.4 million during the same period in
2016.
Marketing and sales expenses
decreased by $0.1 million, or 6.2%, during the second quarter of 2017 compared to the same period in 2016, primarily because of
a decrease in compensation related expenses.
General and administrative
expenses decreased by $0.6 million, or 22.3%, during the second quarter of 2017 compared to the same period in 2016, primarily
due to decreases of $0.4 million in bad debt expense or recovery of accounts receivable for various customers, and $0.2 million
in legal fees.
Research and development
expenses remained relatively unchanged in the second quarter of 2017 compared to the same period in 2016.

For the six months ended
June 30, 2017, selling, administrative, and research and development expenses were $8.1 million, a decrease of $0.3 million,
or 3.6% compared to selling, administrative, and research and development expenses of $8.4 million during the same period in 2016.
Marketing and sales expenses increased by
$0.1 million, or 3.4%, during the first six months of 2017 compared to the same period in 2016, primarily due to a one-time reduction
in a deferred compensation item in 2016 for an employee that left the Company.
General and administrative
expenses decreased by $0.4 million, or 8.7% during the first six months of 2017 compared to the same period in 2016, primarily
due to decreases of $0.2 million in bad debt expense or recovery of accounts receivable and $0.2 million in legal fees.
Research and development
expenses remained relatively unchanged during the first six months of 2017 compared to the same period in 2016.

GPI SAS uses the euro
as its functional currency. At June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the U.S. dollar to euro exchange rates were $1.14 and $1.05,
respectively, which represents a 8.6% weaker dollar compared to the euro. The average exchange rates for the six months ended June
30, 2017 and 2016 were $1.08 and $1.12, respectively, which represents a 3.4% stronger dollar compared to the euro.
GPI Mexicana uses the
U.S. dollar as its functional currency. At June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Mexican peso to U.S. dollar exchange rates
were 18.06 pesos and 20.75 pesos, respectively, which represents a 12.9% weaker dollar compared to the Mexican peso. The average
exchange rates for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 were 19.44 pesos and 18.08 pesos to the U.S. dollar, respectively,
which represents a 7.5% stronger dollar compared to the Mexican peso.
GPI Asia uses the U.S. dollar as its functional
currency. At June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Macau pataca to U.S. dollar exchange rates were similar at 8.20 patacas.
The Macau pataca to U.S. dollar average exchange rates for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 were 8.18 patacas and 8.17
patacas, respectively, which represents a 0.2% stronger dollar compared to the Macau pataca.
Income Taxes.
Our effective
income tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 was 42.4% and 27.9%, respectively. Our effective tax rate for
the three months ended June 30, 2017 was unfavorably affected by our Subpart F income adjustment and non-statutory stock options
that expired during 2017, partially offset by the foreign rate differential on the income from our Macau S.A.R. subsidiary, GPI
Asia, and the benefit from research and low wage tax credits from our French subsidiary, GPI SAS. Our effective tax rate for the
three months ended June 30, 2016 was favorably affected by the foreign rate differential on income from GPI Asia and the benefit
from a research credit from GPI SAS partially offset by our Subpart F income adjustment.
Our effective income tax rate for the six
months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 was 32.4% and 27.7%, respectively. Our effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30,
2017 was favorably affected by the foreign rate differential on income from GPI Asia and the benefit from research and low wage
tax credits from GPI SAS, partially offset by our Subpart F income adjustment and non-statutory stock options that expired during
2017. Our effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2016 was favorably affected by the foreign rate differential on
income from GPI Asia, and the benefit from a research credit from GPI SAS, partially offset by our Subpart F income adjustment.
We account for uncertain tax positions in
accordance with applicable accounting guidance. At December 31, 2016, we reported unrecognized tax benefits related to the on-going
French Tax Administration’s examination of GPI SAS for tax years 2013 and 2012. It is reasonably possible that the amount
of the unrecognized benefit with respect to our unrecognized tax position could change within the next 12 months. This change may
be the result of settlement of the ongoing audit or competent authority proceedings. At this time, an estimate of the range of
the reasonably possible outcomes cannot be made.
We do not expect the examination to be completed
within the next twelve months.
In addition to the on-going French Tax Administration examination of GPI SAS for tax years
2013 and 2012, the Company received notification in August 2017, of a federal income tax examination by the Internal Revenue Service
for the 2015 tax year. As of June 30, 2017, there was no change to the unrecognized tax benefits reported at December 31, 2016.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Sources of Liquidity and Capital Resources
.
Historically, our primary source of liquidity and capital has been cash from operations. On June 26, 2015, the Company entered
into a Credit Agreement with Nevada State Bank for a combined $15.0 million credit facility, consisting of a $10.0 million seven-year
term loan and a $5.0 million five-year revolving loan. The Company borrowed the full amount under the term loan and has not drawn
any funds under the revolving loan. Additional information can be found at Note 9 to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial
statements included in Part I, Item 1, of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. This description of the material terms and conditions
of the Credit Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full texts of the
Credit Agreement, the Pledge and Security Agreement and Irrevocable Proxy, and the Guaranty, which were filed as Exhibits 10.1,
10.2 and 10.3 to the Form 8-K filed with the SEC on July 2, 2015.
Other potential sources of capital include,
but are not limited to, additional bank credit facilities and the sale of stock. We believe that we have the resources to satisfy
our operating needs for working capital, capital expenditures, purchases of common stock under our stock repurchase program, litigation,
dividends or acquisitions for our operations for a minimum of the next twelve months.
At June 30, 2017, we had $13.2 million
in cash and cash equivalents. Of this amount, $7.7 million was held by GPI USA, $3.6 million was held by GPI ASIA, and $1.9 million
was held by GPI SAS. Of those amounts held in France by GPI SAS and in Mexico by GPI Mexicana, we would be subject to taxation
in the United States if we were to repatriate those amounts, although foreign tax credits may be available to offset such taxes.
Of the amounts held by GPI Asia, $3.2 million could be repatriated without further US tax consequences because U.S. federal income
taxes have already been paid on these funds. Except for the amounts previously subject to US taxation (e.g. deemed dividends under
Subpart F), we continue to assert that earnings from GPI Asia will be permanently reinvested. We may repatriate amounts from GPI
SAS and, accordingly, our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect the tax impacts that would result from
repatriation.

The increase in cash flows provided by operating
activities was primarily caused by a decrease in assets and an overall increase in liabilities, partially offset by a decrease
in net income.
The decrease in cash flows used by investing
activities was primarily due to a decrease in capital expenditures partially offset by the acquisition of 20% of the outstanding
shares of Onlive Gaming SAS. See Note 8 to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, item 1,
of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
C
apital
Expenditures
. We currently intend to purchase approximately $2.0 million in property and equipment during the
remainder of 2017 primarily related to improving our operations at our Blue Springs, Missouri facility and our other facilities.
In the first six months of 2017, we purchased $1.8 million of property and equipment.
Cash
Dividend.
Our Board of Directors has no current plans to pay a regular dividend on our common stock, but may evaluate
the merit of paying a special dividend from time to time.
Backlog
.
At June 30, 2017, our backlog of signed orders for the following twelve months was $26.2 million, consisting of $14.4 million for
GPI ASIA, $11.5 million for GPI USA, and $0.3 million for GPI SAS. At June 30, 2016, our backlog of signed orders for the following
twelve months was $22.8 million, consisting of $13.1 million for GPI ASIA, $9.6 million for GPI USA, and $0.1 million for GPI SAS.
Contractual Obligations and Commercial Commitments
On May 11, 2016, the Company purchased certain
assets dedicated to the design and manufacture of chips and plaques for gaming tables from EGT and Dolphin as described in Note
2 to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1, of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Forward-Looking Information Statements and Risk Factors
Throughout this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q,
we make some forward-looking statements which do not relate to historical or current facts, but are forward-looking statements
within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements relate to analyses and other
information based on forecasts of future results and estimates of amounts not yet determinable that, while considered reasonable
by us, are inherently subject to significant business, economic, and competitive risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond
our control and are subject to change. The statements also relate to our future prospects and anticipated performance, development,
and business strategies such as statements relating to anticipated future sales or the timing thereof, potential acquisitions,
the long-term growth and prospects of our business or any jurisdiction, the duration or effects of unfavorable economic conditions
which may reduce our product sales, and the long-term potential of the RFID gaming chips market and our ability to capitalize on
any such growth opportunities. These statements are identified by their use of terms and phrases such as anticipate, believe,
could, would, estimate, expect, intend, may, plan, predict, project, pursue, will, continue, feel, or the negative or other variations
thereof, and other similar terms and phrases, including references to assumptions.
Although we believe that
the expectations reflected in any of our forward-looking statements are reasonable, actual results could differ materially from
those expressed or implied. Our future financial condition and results of operations, as well as any forward-looking statements,
are subject to change and to inherent known and unknown risks and uncertainties such as those identified in Part I-Item 1A.
“Risk Factors,” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016, filed with
the SEC on March 24, 2017. We do not intend, and undertake no obligation, to update our forward-looking statements to reflect
future events or circumstances.
