CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED NOTES TO 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) has three operating subsidiaries, Gaming Partners International USA, Inc. (GPI USA), Gaming Partners International SAS (GPI SAS), and Gaming Partners International Asia Limited (GPI Asia). In addition, GPI USA owns GPI Mexicana S.A. de C.V. (GPI Mexicana), a manufacturing subsidiary. GPI USA was founded in 1963 as Paul-Son Gaming Supplies, Inc. by Paul S. Endy, Jr., and initially manufactured and sold dice to casinos in Las Vegas. GPI SAS was founded in 1923 as Etablissements Bourgogne et Grasset S.A. by Etienne Bourgogne and Claudius Grasset in Beaune, France to produce and sell counterfeit-resistant chips to casinos in Monaco. GPIC was formed in 2002 through a reverse merger between Paul-Son Gaming Corporation and Bourgogne et Grasset initiated by Francois Carrette, whose firm, Holding Wilson, SA, remains GPIC’s controlling stockholder. The Company has established brand names such as Paulson®, Bourgogne et Grasset® (BG®), and Bud Jones®. GPIC and each of its subsidiaries are sometimes collectively referred to herein as the “Company,” “us,” “we,” or “our.”
The Company is headquartered in Las Vegas, Nevada and has manufacturing facilities in San Luis Rio Colorado, Mexico and Beaune, France, as well as a warehouse in San Luis, Arizona. GPI USA has sales offices in Las Vegas, Nevada; Atlantic City, New Jersey; and Gulfport, Mississippi, and sells casino products to licensed casinos primarily in the United States and Canada. GPI SAS has a sales office in Beaune, France and sells casino products to licensed casinos in Europe, and Africa. GPI Asia has a sales office in Macau S.A.R., China and sells casino products primarily to licensed casinos in the Asia Pacific region. Most of our products are sold directly to end-users; however, in some regions of the world, we sell through agents.
Our business activities include the manufacture and supply of casino chips, table layouts, radio frequency identification device (RFID) solutions for casino currency, playing cards, gaming furniture, table accessories, and dice, all of which are used in conjunction with casino table games such as blackjack, poker, baccarat, craps, and roulette.
Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Consolidation and Presentation. The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of GPIC and its wholly-owned subsidiaries GPI SAS, GPI USA, GPI Mexicana, and GPI Asia. All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and do not include all of the information and notes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. These statements should be read in conjunction with our annual audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.
These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, in the opinion of management, reflect only normal and recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of results for such periods. The results of operations for an interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year.
Reclassifications. Certain amounts for the three months ended and six months ended 2011 have been reclassified between cost of revenues and selling, general, and administrative expenses to conform to the 2012 presentation. These reclassifications had no impact on revenues, net income, total assets or total liabilities.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards. Effective January 1, 2012, the Company adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2011-05, Presentation of Comprehensive Income and ASU No. 2011-12, Deferral of the Effective Date for Amendments to the Presentation of Reclassifications of Items Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05. These ASUs eliminate the option to present the components of other comprehensive income in the statement of changes in stockholders’ equity. Instead, entities have the option to present the components of net income, the components of other comprehensive income, and total comprehensive income in a single continuous statement or in two separate, but consecutive, statements. The amendments did not change the items reported in other comprehensive income or when an item of other comprehensive income is reclassified to net income. As a result, the adoption of this guidance did not affect our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. We have presented the components of net income, the components of other comprehensive income, and total comprehensive income in two separate, but consecutive, statements.
6 |
In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-04, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRS, to amend fair value measurement to achieve convergence between US GAAP and IFRS. The ASU changes some fair value measurement principles and disclosure requirements, is effective for fiscal quarters and years beginning on or after December 15, 2011, and did not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.
Note 2. Acquisition
In April 2011, the Company purchased certain assets of OMC SARL and its subsidiary OMC Industries (OMC), a private French-based manufacturer of high-quality plastic injection molds. The acquisition is part of the Company's overall acquisition strategy to use its cash position to acquire companies, products, or technologies that enable it to diversify and grow its product and service offerings. The Company completed the acquisition of OMC on April 6, 2011 for a total cash consideration of $0.7 million. We did not present pro forma results of operations, actual results of operations from the acquisition date through December 31, 2011, or other similar disclosure, because the acquisition was not material.
Note 3. Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Marketable Securities
The Company holds its cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities in financial institutions in various countries throughout the world. The following summarizes the geographic location of our holdings (in thousands):

We present our marketable securities at their estimated fair value. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The Company has determined that all of its marketable securities are Level 1 financial instruments, with asset values recorded at quoted prices in active markets for identical assets.

Note 8. Commitments and Contingencies
Legal Proceedings and Contingencies
Liabilities for material claims against the Company are accrued when a loss is considered probable and can be reasonably estimated. Legal costs associated with claims are expensed as incurred.
On January 18, 2011, a former employee of GPI SAS filed a complaint with the Employment Tribunal of Dijon, France, entitled Christophe Leparoux vs. Gaming Partners International SAS, related to his termination of employment in November 2010. The complaint sought damages for unfair dismissal, legal fees, and back pay. The Court dismissed the complaint on January 23, 2012; however, on February 1, 2012, Mr. Leparoux filed an identical claim before the Employment Tribunal of Dijon. The trial date scheduled for June 25, 2012 was adjourned and the parties subsequently entered into a settlement agreement on June 28, 2012, by which the parties agreed to a full, final and unconditional settlement and waiver of all rights to pursue legal action. The net settlement was significantly lower than plaintiff’s claim of approximately 1.0 million euros (approximately $1.3 million) and we recognized a credit against previously accrued legal expenses at June 30, 2012. The claims will formally be dismissed by the Tribunal of Dijon on or after September 3, 2012.
We are also engaged in disputes and claims in the normal course of business. We believe the ultimate outcome of these proceedings will not have a material adverse impact on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.
Commitments
The Company has exclusive intellectual property license agreements from an unrelated third party which grant the Company the exclusive rights to manufacture and distribute RFID gaming chips, RFID equipment, and software worldwide under patents for a gaming chip tracking system and method that utilizes gaming chips with embedded electronic circuits scanned by antennas in gaming chip placement areas (gaming tables and casino cage) and other RFID-related intellectual property. The duration of these agreements ranges from annual renewal to the life of the patents, the last of which expires in 2015. Cumulative minimum net annual royalty payments are $375,000.
We purchased certain security technology from an unrelated third party for use in our gaming chips under an exclusive contract which requires that we purchase a minimum of $50,000 in product each year through 2016, or $250,000 during the remaining life of the contract.

We manufacture and sell casino table game equipment in one operating segment - casino table game equipment products and chip authentication software.

Note 11. Stockholders’ Equity
On December 1, 2011, our Board of Directors approved a stock repurchase program which authorized us to repurchase up to five percent (5%), or approximately 410,000 shares, of our outstanding shares of common stock. Repurchases are subject to market conditions, share price, and other factors, as well as periodic review by the Board of Directors. Repurchases have been and will be made in accordance with applicable securities laws in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions, and/or pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 trading plans. The repurchase program does not specify an expiration date, and it may be suspended or discontinued at any time.
During the quarter ended June 30, 2012, we repurchased approximately 32,000 shares of our common stock at a cost of approximately $212,000, or a weighted-average price of $6.55 per share. During the six months ended June 30, 2012, we repurchased approximately 79,000 shares of our common stock at a cost of approximately $540,000, or a weighted-average price of $6.80 per share. As of June 30, 2012, approximately 319,000 shares remained outstanding for repurchase under this program.
Note 12. Earnings per Share (EPS)
Basic EPS is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the effect of potential common stock, which consists of stock options. Potentially dilutive securities are not taken into account when their effect would be anti-dilutive.
The weighted-average number of common shares outstanding used in the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share is as follows (in thousands):

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 results of operations and our present financial condition. The 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 the Company’s Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2011.
For a company overview and information on our products, as well as general information, see Item 1. “Business,” of the Company’s Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2011.
Overview of our Business
We manufacture and supply casino currency under the brand names of Paulson®, Bourgogne et Grasset®, and Bud Jones® (including low- and high-frequency RFID casino chips), RFID solutions for casino currency (consisting of low- and high-frequency RFID chip readers, antennas, chip authentication software, chip inventory software applications and software maintenance services), table layouts, playing cards, dice, gaming furniture, roulette wheels, table accessories, and other products that are used with casino table games such as blackjack, poker, baccarat, craps, and roulette. GPIC is headquartered in Las Vegas, Nevada, with offices in Beaune, France; Macau S.A.R., China; San Luis Rio Colorado, Mexico; Atlantic City, New Jersey; and Gulfport, Mississippi. We sell our products to licensed casinos worldwide. We operate in one segment and have three operating subsidiaries: GPI USA (including maquiladora manufacturing operations in Mexico), GPI SAS, and GPI Asia. Our subsidiaries have the following distribution and product focus:
· | GPI USA sells in the Americas, primarily in the United States and Canada, out of regional offices in the United States. GPI USA sells our full product line, with most of the products manufactured at our facility in Mexico and with the remainder either manufactured in France or purchased from United States vendors. We also warehouse inventory in San Luis, Arizona and at our Las Vegas, Nevada headquarters. |
· | GPI SAS sells primarily in Europe and Africa out of Beaune, France. GPI SAS predominantly sells casino chips, including both American-style casino chips and European-style casino chips, which are also 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 sells and distributes chips, plaques, and jetons, as well as RFID solutions for casino currency, out of Macau S.A.R., China, in the Asia Pacific region, with such products being manufactured in our plants in France and Mexico. |
Historically, we have experienced significant fluctuations in our quarterly operating results and expect such fluctuations to continue. Our operating results fluctuate due to a number of factors, but primarily reflect the opening of new casinos, the expansion of existing casinos, and large replacement orders for casino chips, our primary product line, which typically represents over 60% of the Company’s revenues. The timing of these events is difficult to forecast and largely beyond our ability to influence, which creates variability in revenues and earnings. While most large projects are pursued years in advance, both large and small sales opportunities arise with little prior notice. An indicator of future sales is found in our backlog, which reflects signed orders that we expect to ship during the remainder of the respective year. Our backlog at June 30, 2012 and June 30, 2011, was as follows (in millions):
GPI USA | GPI SAS | GPI Asia | Total | |||||||||||||
June 30, 2012 | $ | 3.6 | $ | 1.4 | $ | 7.5 | $ | 12.5 | ||||||||
June 30, 2011 | $ | 5.3 | $ | 8.5 | $ | 0.3 | $ | 14.1 |

Despite the economic downturn in certain markets, the global gaming industry continues to provide gaming suppliers like us with growth opportunities. As the industry's top performing region, Asia Pacific accounts for the most significant product sales opportunities. While we saw a decrease in chip sales in Asia Pacific in the first six months of 2012, compared to the first six months of 2011, we have a backlog of signed replacement and expansion orders and other potential sales, particularly in Asia Pacific, to drive stronger revenue performance in the second half of the year.
Looking beyond Asia Pacific, established gaming regions, like Europe and North America, also possess opportunities for sales as existing casinos pursue rebranding initiatives or expansions, and new markets, like Ohio, commence legalized table gaming operations in 2012.
We will continue to pursue potential strategic acquisitions and partnerships to grow our business. However, no assurance can be given that these efforts will result in completed transactions or that any completed transactions will be successful.
Financial and Operational Highlights
For the second quarter of 2012, our revenues were $13.0 million, a decrease of $1.8 million, or 11.9%, compared to revenues of $14.8 million for the same period of 2011. For the second quarter of 2012, our net income was $1.8 million, an increase of $0.9 million, or 99.3%, compared to net income of $0.9 million for the same period of 2011.
For the first six months of 2012, our revenues were $28.5 million, a decrease of $4.2 million, or 12.7%, compared to revenues of $32.6 million for the same period of 2011. For the first six months of 2012, our net income was $3.1 million, an increase of $0.5 million, or 16.9%, compared to net income of $2.6 million for the same period of 2011.
GPI SAS uses the euro as its functional currency. At June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the US dollar to euro exchange rates were $1.2577 and $1.2950, respectively, which represents a 2.9% stronger dollar compared to the euro. The average exchange rates for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 were $1.2981 and $1.4028, respectively, which represents a 7.5% stronger dollar compared to the euro.
GPI Mexicana uses the US dollar as its functional currency. At June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the Mexican peso to US dollar exchange rates were 13.65 and 13.98, respectively, which represents a 2.3% weaker dollar compared to the peso. The average exchange rates for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 were 13.27 pesos and 11.91 pesos to the US dollar, respectively, which represents an 11.4% stronger dollar compared to the Mexican peso.
Other Matters
On December 1, 2011, our Board of Directors approved a stock repurchase program which authorizes us to repurchase up to five percent (5%), or approximately 410,000 shares, of our outstanding shares of common stock. For more information regarding this program, see Part II, Item 2 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and Note 11 contained in the “Condensed Consolidated Notes to Financial Statements” of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
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 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, 2011.

Comparison of Operations for the Three Months and Six Months Ended June 30, 2012 and 2011
Revenues. For the three months ended June 30, 2012, revenues were $13.0 million, a decrease of $1.8 million, or 11.9%, compared to revenues of $14.8 million for the same period of 2011. The net decrease in revenues was primarily due to the following:
· | a $1.9 million decrease in sales of European-style casino chips for Asia Pacific casinos in the second quarter of 2012, compared to the second quarter of 2011, when the Company had significant sales to the Galaxy ™ and SJM casinos in Macau; and |
· | a $0.8 million decrease in sales of RFID solutions to casinos in Asia Pacific in the second quarter of 2012, compared to the second quarter of 2011, primarily related to the May 2011 Galaxy Macau opening; offset by |
· | a $0.6 million increase in sales of American-style chips in the United States in the second quarter of 2012, compared to the second quarter of 2011, primarily driven by sales of Paulson chips to casinos opening in New Jersey and Ohio. |
For the six months ended June 30, 2012, revenues were $28.5 million, a decrease of $4.1 million, or 12.7%, compared to revenues of $32.6 million for the same period of 2011. The net decrease in revenues was primarily due to the following:
· | a $7.3 million decrease in sales of European-style casino chips for Asia Pacific casinos in the first six months of 2012, compared to the first six months of 2011, when the Company had significant sales to the Galaxy ™ and SJM casinos in Macau; and |
· | a $0.5 million decrease in sales of RFID solutions to casinos in Asia Pacific in the first six months of 2012, compared to the first six months of 2011, primarily related to the May 2011 Galaxy Macau opening; offset by |
· | a $2.2 million increase in sales of American-style chips in the United States in the first six months of 2012, compared to the first six months of 2011, primarily driven by sales of Paulson chips to casinos opening in New Jersey, Ohio, and Maine; and |
· | a $1.4 million increase in sales of furniture, accessories, table layouts, and cards to new and expanding casinos in the United States in the first six months of 2012, compared to the first six months of 2011. |
Cost of Revenues. For the three months ended June 30, 2012, cost of revenues was $8.3 million, a decrease of $1.7 million, or 17.0%, compared to cost of revenues of $10.0 million for the same period of 2011. As a percentage of revenues, our cost of revenues decreased to 63.6% in 2012, compared to 67.6% for the same period of 2011.
For the six months ended June 30, 2012, cost of revenues was $18.5 million, a decrease of $3.0 million, or 13.9%, compared to cost of revenues of $21.5 million for the same period of 2011. As a percentage of revenues, our cost of revenues decreased to 65.0% in 2012, compared to 65.9% for the same period of 2011.

Gross Profit. For the three months ended June 30, 2012, gross profit was $4.7 million, a decrease of $0.1 million, or 1.2%, compared to gross profit of $4.8 million for the same period of 2011. As a percentage of revenues, our gross profit increased from 32.4% to 36.4%. This gross profit percentage increase was primarily due to a shift in sales mix toward higher-margin Paulson chips to casinos in the United States in the second quarter of 2012. This increase was partially offset by a decrease in sales of European-style casino chips to Asia Pacific casinos in the second quarter of 2012, compared to the same period in 2011, which caused fixed manufacturing costs to be allocated over lower production volumes in these products.
For the six months ended June 30, 2012, gross profit was $10.0 million, a decrease of $1.1 million, or 10.5%, compared to gross profit of $11.1 million for the same period of 2011. As a percentage of revenues, our gross profit increased from 34.1% to 35.0%. This gross profit percentage increase was primarily due to a shift in sales mix toward higher-margin Paulson chips to casinos in the United States in the first six months of 2012. This increase was partially offset by a decrease in sales of European-style casino chips to Asia Pacific casinos in the first six months of 2012, compared to the same period in 2011, which caused fixed manufacturing costs to be allocated over lower production volumes in these products.

Income Taxes. Our effective income tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 was (1.6%) and 10.3%, and 25.9% and 31.3%, respectively. Our effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 was reduced by the utilization of our foreign tax credit carryforwards, combined with the foreign rate differential on the income from our Macau subsidiary, GPI Asia, and the benefit from a research credit from our French subsidiary, GPI SAS. Without the release of valuation allowance related to our foreign tax credits, our effective income tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 would have been approximately 21.6% and 22.3%, respectively. Our effective income tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 differed from the statutory rate as a result of the benefit from the research credit from our French subsidiary, GPI SAS.
As of December 31, 2011, we had $3.2 million in available foreign tax credits and a valuation allowance of $3.0 million related to these foreign tax credits due to the on-going uncertainty of future foreign source and US taxable income. These available foreign tax credits of $0.7 million, $1.3 million, and $1.2 million will expire in 2015, 2016, and 2017, respectively. During 2012, we expect to release $0.7 million of the valuation allowance related to foreign tax credits.
The Company accounts for uncertain tax positions in accordance with the applicable accounting guidance. As of June 30, 2012, there has been no material change to the balance of unrecognized tax benefits reported at December 31, 2011.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Sources of Liquidity and Capital Resources. Historically, our primary source of liquidity and capital resources has been cash from operations. Other sources of capital include, but are not limited to, marketable securities and potential bank credit facilities both in the United States and abroad. We believe that the combination of these resources will satisfy our needs for working capital, capital expenditures, purchases of common stock under our stock repurchase program, and litigation, as well as other potential cash requirements, such as any dividends or acquisitions, for our operations for a minimum of the next 12 months.
At June 30, 2012, we had $12.7 million in cash and cash equivalents and $13.1 million in marketable securities, totaling $25.8 million. Of this amount, $13.8 million is held by GPI SAS, $11.1 million is held by GPI USA, and $0.9 million is held by GPI Asia.
Working Capital (See Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets). The following summarizes our cash and cash equivalents (in thousands), working capital (in thousands), and current ratio:

Working capital | 30,554 | 28,492 | 2,062 | 7.2 | % | |||||||||||
Current ratio | 3.8 | 3.2 |
At June 30, 2012, working capital totaled $30.6 million, an increase of $2.1 million, or 7.2%, compared to working capital of $28.5 million at December 31, 2011. This increase is due to an increase in current assets of $0.2 million, offset by a decrease in current liabilities of $1.8 million. The increase in current assets was due primarily to an increase is cash and cash equivalents of $3.4 million, offset by a decrease in marketable securities of $1.8 million and a decrease in accounts receivable of $1.7 million. The decrease in current liabilities was due primarily to a decrease in accrued liabilities of $1.9 million.
Cash Flows (See Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows). The following summarizes our cash flows (in thousands):

Net cash flows provided by operating activities was $3.3 million during the six months ended June 30, 2012, a decrease of $1.0 million, compared to net cash flows provided of $4.3 million during the same period in 2011. For the six months ended June 30, 2012, $4.2 million of cash was provided by net income-related activities; $0.9 million was provided by an increase in operating assets (excluding cash); and $1.7 million was used by a decrease in current liabilities. For the six months ended June 30, 2011, $3.8 million of cash was provided by net income-related activities; $1.4 million was provided by an increase in operating assets (excluding cash); and $0.9 million was used by a decrease in current liabilities.
Net cash flows provided by investing activities was $0.7 million during the six months ended June 30, 2012, a decrease of $0.3 million, compared to net cash flows provided by investing activities of $1.0 million during the same period in 2011. This reduction in cash flows provided by investing activities is primarily due to a decrease in net sales of marketable securities of $1.0 million in 2012 during the six months ended June 30, 2012, compared to the same period in 2011, offset by the $0.7 million acquisition of assets from OMC in April 2011.
20 |
Net cash flows used in financing activities was $0.6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2012, a change of $6.5 million, compared to net cash flows used in financing activities of $7.0 million during the same period in 2011. This reduction in cash flows used in financing activities was primarily due to the repurchase of common stock of $0.5 million during the six months ended June 30, 2012, compared to the repayment of debt obligations for $7.0 million during the same period in 2011.
Debt. In December 2010, GPI SAS borrowed 5.0 million euros (approximately $6.7 million in December 2010) from a French bank at a variable interest rate based on the Euro Interbank Offered Rate plus 0.5% per annum and secured by 3.75 million euros (approximately $4.9 million in December 2010) in GPI SAS certificates of deposit. This loan was paid in full in June 2011.
Capital Expenditures. We plan to purchase approximately $0.2 million in property, plant, and equipment during the remainder of 2012.
Cash Dividend. Our Board of Directors has no current plans to pay a regular dividend on our common stock, but will continuously evaluate the merit of paying a dividend. We paid a $1.5 million dividend, or $0.1825 per share, in December 2011.
Backlog. At June 30, 2012, our backlog of signed orders for 2012 was $12.5 million, consisting of $1.4 million for GPI SAS, $3.6 million for GPI USA, and $7.5 million for GPI Asia. At June 30, 2011, our backlog of signed orders was $14.1 million, consisting of $8.5 million for GPI SAS, $5.3 million for GPI USA, and $0.3 million for GPI Asia.
