Description of the Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | Description of the Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Background and Nature of Operations SciPlay Corporation was formed as a Nevada corporation on November 30, 2018 as a subsidiary of Scientific Games Corporation (“Scientific Games”, “SGC”, and “the Parent”) for the purpose of completing a public offering and related transactions (collectively referred to herein as the “IPO”) in order to carry on the business of SciPlay Parent LLC and its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as “SciPlay”, the “Company”, “we”, “us”, and “our”). The IPO was completed on May 7, 2019. As the managing member of SciPlay Parent LLC, SciPlay operates and controls all of the business affairs of SciPlay Parent LLC and its subsidiaries. We develop, market and operate a portfolio of social games played on various mobile and web platforms, including Jackpot Party Casino®, Quick Hit Slots®, Gold Fish Casino®, Hot Shot Casino®, Bingo Showdown®, MONOPOLY Slots® , and 88 Fortunes Slots® , among others. Our games are available in various formats. We have one operating segment with one business activity, developing and monetizing social games. Basis of Presentation The accompanying financial statements are presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). SG Social Holding Company II, LLC is SciPlay’s predecessor for financial reporting purposes, and accordingly, for all periods presented prior to May 7, 2019, the financial statements represent the financial statements of the predecessor. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In the opinion of management, we have made all adjustments necessary to present fairly our condensed consolidated balance sheets, consolidated statements of income, consolidated statements of comprehensive income, consolidated statements of changes in stockholders’ equity/accumulated net parent investment, and condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the periods presented. Such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related Notes included in our 2019 Form 10-K. Interim results of operations are not necessarily indicative of results of operations to be expected for a full year. Variable Interest Entities (“VIE”) and Consolidation Subsequent to the IPO, our sole material asset is our member’s interest in SciPlay Parent LLC. In accordance with the Operating Agreement of SciPlay Parent LLC, we have all management powers over the business and affairs of SciPlay Parent LLC and to conduct, direct and exercise full control over the activities of SciPlay Parent LLC. Class A common stock issued in the IPO do not hold majority voting rights but hold 100% of the economic interest in the Company, which results in SciPlay Parent LLC being considered a VIE. Due to our power to control the activities most directly affecting the results of SciPlay Parent LLC, we are considered the primary beneficiary of the VIE. Accordingly, beginning with the IPO, we consolidate the financial results of SciPlay Parent LLC and its subsidiaries. Significant Accounting Policies There have been no changes to our significant accounting policies described within the Notes of our 2019 Form 10-K. New Accounting Guidance In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Income Taxes, a new standard to simplify the accounting for income taxes. The guidance eliminates certain exceptions related to the approach for intraperiod tax allocation, the methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period, and the recognition of deferred tax liabilities for outside basis differences related to changes in ownership of equity method investments and foreign subsidiaries. The guidance also simplifies aspects of accounting for franchise taxes and enacted changes in tax laws or rates, and clarifies the accounting for transactions that result in a step-up in the tax basis of goodwill. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020 and interim periods within those fiscal years with early adoption permitted. We early adopted this standard effective January 1, 2020. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements. We do not expect that any other recently issued accounting guidance will have a significant effect on our consolidated financial statements. Revenue Recognition We generate revenue from the sale of virtual coins, chips and bingo cards (collectively referred to as “coins, chips and cards”), which players can use to play casino-style slot games, table games and bingo games (i.e., spin in the case of slot games, bet in the case of table games and use of bingo cards in the case of bingo games). We distribute our games through various global social web and mobile platforms such as Facebook, Apple, Google, Amazon, with some of our games available on Microsoft and other web and mobile platforms. The games are primarily WMS , Bally , Barcrest ™, and SHFL ® branded games. In addition, we also offer third-party branded games and original content. Disaggregation of Revenue We believe disaggregation of our revenue on the basis of platform and geographical locations of our players is appropriate because the nature and the number of players generating revenue could vary on such basis, which represent different economic risk profiles. The following table presents our revenue disaggregated by type of platform: Three Months Ended March 31, 2020 2019 Mobile $ 101.2 $ 96.9 Web 17.1 21.5 Total revenue $ 118.3 $ 118.4 The following table presents our revenue disaggregated based on the geographical location of our players: Three Months Ended March 31, 2020 (1) 2019 (2) North America $ 108.0 $ 108.4 International 10.3 10.0 Total revenue $ 118.3 $ 118.4 (1) For the three months ended March 31, 2020, North America revenue includes revenue derived from the U.S., Canada and Mexico. As a result of enhancements in the technologies and processes we use to obtain customer data, beginning with the first quarter of 2020, geographical location is now determined based on player location as reported by the platform provider. Contract Assets, Contract Liabilities and Other Disclosures We receive customer payments based on the payment terms established in our contracts. Payment for the purchase of coins, chips and cards is made at purchase, and such payments are non-refundable in accordance with our standard terms of service. Such payments are initially recorded as a contract liability, and revenue is subsequently recognized as we satisfy our performance obligations. The following table summarizes our opening and closing balances in contract assets, contract liabilities and accounts receivable: Accounts Receivable Contract Assets (1) Contract Liabilities (2) Beginning of period balance $ 32.1 $ 0.2 $ 0.6 Balance as of March 31, 2020 42.4 0.2 0.6 (1) Contract assets are included within Prepaid expenses and other current assets in our consolidated balance sheets. During each of the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, we recognized $0.4 million of revenue that was included in the opening contract liability balance. Substantially all of our unsatisfied performance obligations relate to contracts with an original expected length of one year or less. Concentration of Credit Risk Our revenue and accounts receivable are generated via certain platform providers, which subject us to a concentration of credit risk. The following tables summarize the percentage of revenues and accounts receivable generated via our platform providers in excess of 10% of our total revenues and total accounts receivable: Revenue Concentration Accounts Receivable Concentration Three Months Ended March 31, December 31, March 31, 2020 March 31, 2019 2020 2019 Apple 46.0 % 42.7 % 60.9 % 42.7 % Google 36.2 % 35.9 % 26.5 % 33.1 % Facebook 14.5 % 18.1 % 10.1 % 20.9 % |
