LAS VEGAS, March 20, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Galaxy Gaming, Inc. (OTCQB: GLXZ), a developer and distributor of casino table games and enhanced systems, is announcing today preliminary financial results for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019.
FY 2019 Preliminary Financial Results
The Company expects to file actual results for the year ended December 31, 2019 on Form 10-K on March 27, 2020. On a preliminary estimated basis, the Company expects to report revenue for FY 2019 of approximately $21.3 million and adjusted EBITDA* of approximately $8.8 million. These figures compare to $18.6 million in revenue and $6.6 million in adjusted EBITDA* for the comparable period in 2018. Further, the Company expects to report that, at December 31, 2019, cash was $9.7 million and long-term debt (gross) was $48.0 million, including $39.1 million of subordinated debt issued in connection with the redemption transaction in May 2019.

On March 16, 2020, the Company announced that it would suspend billing its customers whose casinos are closed for the duration of such closure. The Company also stated that it had sufficient cash on hand to continue to pay its employees through the duration of the casino closures. In addition to the cash on hand, the Company drew down $1 million on its revolving credit facility. The Company currently estimates that it has sufficient liquidity to maintain its current operations for a period of time that extends well beyond the expected duration of casino closings.
