subject to important risks, uncertainties and assumptions. This forward‐looking information includes, among other things,
information with respect to the Company's beliefs, plans, expectations, anticipations, estimates and intentions. The words "may",
"could", "should", "would", "suspect", "outlook", "believe", "anticipate", "estimate", "expect", "intend", "plan", "target" and
similar words and expressions are used to identify forward‐looking information. The forward‐looking information in this news
release, including those statements relating to expected EBITDA, and the placement of additional machines by the Company, describes

The results or events anticipated or predicted in such forward‐looking information may differ materially from actual results or
events. Material factors which could cause actual results or events to differ materially from such forward‐ looking information
include, among others, risks arising from general economic conditions and adverse industry events.
The Company cautions that the foregoing list of material factors is not exhaustive. When relying on the Company's
forward‐looking information to make decisions, investors and others should carefully consider the foregoing factors and other
uncertainties and potential events. The Company has assumed a certain progression, which may not be realized. It has also assumed

INFORMATION AND SHOULD NOT RELY UPON THIS INFORMATION AS OF ANY OTHER DATE. WHILE THE COMPANY MAY ELECT TO, IT DOES NOT UNDERTAKE

Non‐IFRS Measures
Adjusted EBITDA is a financial measure that does not have a standardized meaning under IFRS. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as
earnings before financing costs, income taxes, depreciation, amortization, stock based compensation, unrealized foreign exchange,
impairment of loans receivable, impairment of placement fees, gain/loss on settlement of debt, gain/loss on disposal of assets,
gain on sale of Bingo, finance lease receivable reduction, revaluation adjustment of earn-out liability, revaluation of exit fee
liability, employee separation fees and non-recurring costs.
As there is no standardized method of calculating Adjusted EBITDA, it may not be directly comparable with similarly titled
measures used by other companies. The Company considers Adjusted EBITDA to be a relevant indicator for measuring trends in
performance and its ability to generate funds to service its debt and to meet its future working capital and capital expenditure
requirements. Adjusted EBITDA is not a generally accepted earnings measure and should not be considered in isolation or as an
alternative to net income (loss), cash flows or other measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS.
