Commenting on the results 小杨嫂黑料 Group CEO, Mr. Constantinos Antonopoulos, noted: 鈥溞⊙钌┖诹� had some very interesting developments during the second quarter of 2012: From an operational view, the most important developments were the renewal of our Lottery license in Malta for another 10 years, a fact that guarantees our uninterrupted operation of the country鈥檚 National Lottery and our entry into the German sports betting market through the cooperation with Scientific Games for the support of Oddset, the State operator of such games in the country. Germany has recently liberalized its betting market and we shall be present in this major European sports betting market.

Additional developments include Mexico, where 小杨嫂黑料 in cooperation with Sorteo will roll-out over a five-year period gaming products for Loter铆a Nacional, the National Lottery of the country. This new business will enhance our already strong presence in Latin America. Moreover, 小杨嫂黑料 recently won a tender to become the Croatian State Lottery鈥檚 strategic partner for its new iCasino Project, expanding our presence in the interactive gaming space. Finally, two new important projects have started recently: the VLT monitoring systems in two major jurisdictions, namely in Ohio, US and Victoria, Australia. Both projects will be fully deployed over the next months.

Regarding our first half results, the Group continued to grow both on a Revenue and Ebitda basis, while cash-flow was burdened by concentration of capex for a number of projects that we are currently implementing, including the Malta license fee payment in Q2 and the VLT monitoring system in Australia, which will have high returns in the mid-term.
Recently the Company鈥檚 Revolving Credit Facility was extended for two additional years, until December 2014, at very competitive financing terms. The financing was provided by a consortium of banks that include world leading international and local banking institutions.

At 小杨嫂黑料, we are selectively looking forward to opportunities that are expected to arise in the near future both in Greece and other major international markets.鈥�
