Product sales revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2009, our historically lowest quarter for product sales, increased $1.6 million to $88.8 million compared with $87.2 million in the year-ago period. New unit sales revenue reflects the ongoing demand for our premium-featuredBluebird2 gaming machines, which drove a 13% increase in the quarterly average selling price to $15,062 per unit that was offset by a decline in new unit shipments due to our customers’ lower capital budgets that reflect the impact of a soft economy. Reflecting strong player appeal and high-earnings performance, Bluebird2 units accounted for approximately 69% of total global shipments. Approximately 32% of our total worldwide shipments were mechanical reel products. Our U.S. and Canadian shipments totaled 2,957 units, of which approximately 80% or approximately 2,400 units were replacements of existing casino-owned units. International new unit shipments totaled 1,894 units and represented 39% of global shipments compared to 38% in the prior year.
Revenues from conversion kit sales, parts and used gaming machines increased 12% over the year-ago period. Approximately 2,600 game conversion kits were sold in the September 2009 quarter compared to just over 2,400 conversion kits a year ago. We shipped approximately 1,500 used gaming machines in the September 2009 quarter compared with just under 1,000 used gaming machines in the prior year quarter.
Gaming operations revenues grew 19% in the September 2009 quarter to $76.5 million compared with $64.2 million in the year-ago period, reflecting a 9% increase in the average installed base to a record 10,237 participation units and a 12% year-over-year increase in the average daily revenue to a record $77.23. As of September 30, 2009, the installed base of gaming operations machines was 10,337 units, a 7% increase over the prior year; and wide-area progressive (WAP) units increased by 951 units, representing 28% of the total installed base compared to 20% of the installed base a year ago. As anticipated, the total installed base as of September 30, 2009 was comparable to June 30, 2009, and reflects a 15%, or 374 unit, quarterly sequential increase in WAP placements offset by a decrease of certain local-area progressive and stand-alone participation series. The average daily revenue increased 5% from the June 2009 quarter. Our growing WAP footprint reflects the ongoing appeal of high-performing games such asTHE WIZARDOF OZ™, along with strong demand for our newer games likeReel ‘Em In® Compete to Win® andTIME MACHINE®. Ongoing success with games on WMS’ Sensory Immersion,Adaptive Gaming® andTransmissive Reels® gaming platforms continued to drive strong play levels contributing to the significant year-over-year revenue gain.
Total gross profit, as used herein excluding depreciation expense, increased 14% to $109.3 million for the September 2009 quarter from $95.6 million in the prior year, and total gross margin improved by 300 basis points to 66.1%. Our continuous improvement initiatives drove an enhanced product sales gross margin of 52.9% up from 50.1% in the year ago period, reflecting continued success with our lean sigma and strategic sourcing efforts. Gross margin from gaming operations increased to 81.4% in the September 2009 quarter from 80.8% in the prior-year period, primarily reflecting higher revenue per day that was partially offset by lower royalty revenues.

The following table summarizes the key components related to operating expenses and operating income for the three months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008:
| Three months ended September 30, | Increase | |||||||||||||||||
| 2009 | 2008 | |||||||||||||||||
($ in millions) | Amount | As a % of Revenue | Amount | As a % of Revenue | Amount | Percent | ||||||||||||
Research and development | $ | 26.5 | 16.0 | % | $ | 22.0 | 14.5 | % | $ | 4.5 | 20.5 | % | ||||||

Operating Income | $ | 31.5 | 19.1 | % | $ | 24.3 | 16.1 | % | $ | 7.2 | 29.6 | % | ||||||
Research and development expenses of $26.5 million in the September 2009 quarter were 20%, or $4.5 million, higher than in the year-ago period, reflecting planned spending for expanded product development and other organic growth initiatives. On a quarterly sequential basis, R&D expenses increased $0.8 million. R&D expenses were 16% of revenues in the September 2009 quarter and, as anticipated, were higher than the expected annual rate of approximately 14%, reflecting the effects of seasonally lower quarterly revenues and increased spending related to the near-term launch of our networked gaming applications.
Selling and administrative expenses totaled $34.0 million, or 21% of total revenues, in the September 2009 quarter compared to $32.2 million, or 21% of revenues, in the year-ago quarter and declined by $5.9 million on a quarterly sequential basis. The $1.8 million, or 6%, year-over-year increase in selling and administrative expenses principally reflects higher payroll-related costs associated with WMS’ global growth and improved operating performance.
Depreciation expense for the September 2009 quarter was $17.3 million, which was only slightly higher than a year ago despite the 9%, or 843 unit, year-over-year increase in the average number of participation gaming machines. Improving capital efficiencies and increased operating leverage on depreciation are being achieved in the gaming operations business, resulting from the scheduled rollout of new participation games, increased longevity of games on the casino floor with more gaming machines having been depreciated to their residual value and incorporation of continuous improvement initiatives into the design of new participation games.
Cash flow used in operations in September 2009 quarter was $9.5 million compared with $47.9 million of cash flow provided by operations in the September 2008 quarter. The year-over-year change reflects higher net income that was more than offset by the change in operating assets and liabilities, coupled with an increase in prepaid income taxes as a result of significant stock option exercise activity. The change in operating assets and liabilities primarily reflects greater receivables arising from a higher percentage of shipments late in the September quarter compared to the year-ago period and longer-term financing being provided to select customers, coupled with inventory increasing primarily from the advance purchase of computer chips used in many of our gaming machines. In the September 2009 quarter, prepaid royalty advances increased due to new contracts entered into for licensed brands. Net cash used in investing activities was down slightly year over year, primarily due to less capital deployed for additions to gaming operations equipment in the September 2009 quarter. Net cash provided by financing activities increased by $48.0 million due to increased stock option exercise activity and a reduction in share repurchase activity. Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial metric, for the September 2009 quarter rose 22% to $60.6 million compared with $49.7 million in the prior-year period (see reconciliation to net income schedule at the end of this release).

In aggregate, total cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash increased to $155.2 million as of September 30, 2009, up from $127.5 million a year ago and $154.7 million at June 30, 2009. As previously disclosed, WMS took several steps during the quarter to further strengthen its financial flexibility, liquidity and already solid capital position. The Company amended and extended its revolving credit facility for a three-year term through September 30, 2012 and expanded its borrowing capacity to $150 million with an ability to further expand the total amount of the credit line to $200 million.
In addition, as previously disclosed, at a cost less than the discounted present value of the remaining interest, WMS provided a financial incentive to induce three holders of our 2.75% Subordinated Convertible Notes due July 15, 2010 (the “Notes”), to convert into common stock prior to maturity. On September 28, 2009, approximately $79.4 million of Notes converted into approximately 6.0 million shares of our common stock, which shares had previously been included in our fully diluted share count. These transactions resulted in a $79.4 million reduction of long-term debt and an increase in common stock and additional paid-in capital of $79.4 million. Subsequent to September 30, 2009, a separate agreement was reached with another Note holder to convert an additional $25.7 million of Notes into approximately 1.9 million shares of our common stock on approximately the same terms. Following the conversion of these Notes into common stock, as of October 2, 2009, the number of shares of our common stock outstanding was approximately 58.7 million and only $9.9 million of Notes remained outstanding.
The September 2009 quarter results include an approximately $0.9 million after-tax impact, or $0.02 per diluted share, related to the cash inducement payments of approximately $0.7 million paid in lieu of remaining interest payments and $0.2 million for the accelerated non-cash write-off of the remaining proportional deferred financing costs related to the Notes. The December 2009 quarter results will reflect a $0.3 million after-tax impact related to the inducement payment and associated non-cash write-off of deferred financing costs for the early conversion of $25.7 million of our Notes on October 2, 2009.
As the inducement payments for all $105.1 million of converted Notes were less than the $1.4 million after-tax impact of remaining interest payments, we expect to record a net favorable cash savings of $0.5 million after-tax over the balance of fiscal 2010.
Fiscal 2010 Second Quarter and Annual Revenue Outlook
WMS expects December 2009 quarter total revenues to range from $184 million to $190 million compared with $178.4 million in the prior year. This range represents 24%-to-25% of our total fiscal 2010 revenue guidance, which is consistent with the range of second quarter revenue contributions for the last three fiscal years, as well as with our previously provided guidance for the progression of quarterly revenue growth during fiscal 2010. Our December 2009 quarterly revenue guidance anticipates that the domestic marketplace will continue to be impacted by the low amount of capital budgeted by casino customers for gaming machine purchases in calendar 2009, the continued slow replacement cycle, as well as a lower number of expected new casino openings compared with the prior-year period. We believe that casino customers on average are planning preliminarily to budget higher capital allocations for gaming machine purchases in calendar 2010, which will benefit the second half of our fiscal year ending June 30, 2010.

Reflecting the September 2009 quarter revenue performance, which is consistent with the levels anticipated in the Company’s annual revenue guidance provided in August 2009, WMS today reiterated its full-year fiscal 2010 revenue outlook of $760-to-$780 million.
WMS continues to anticipate that its quarterly revenue progression will reflect historical seasonal trends, with quarterly revenues increasing sequentially throughout the fiscal year, with the lowest total revenues in the September quarter and the highest total revenues in the June quarter. The Company routinely reviews its guidance and may update it from time to time based on changes in the market and our operations.
Gamache concluded, “WMS’ consistent quarter-over-quarter growth in revenues, operating margin and net income continues to distinguish the Company in this tough economic environment. Our products remain in high demand as evidenced by the strength of our mechanical and video reel new unit shipments, the ongoing demand for game conversion kits and our solid base of gaming operations placements and their reported high play levels. Based on our strength and ship share of replacement sales, coupled with the continuing growth opportunities as new jurisdictions enact gaming regulations, existing jurisdictions expand gaming, new casinos open and existing casinos expand, we are well positioned to continue to drive revenues, profits and cash flow over the next several years.
“Our prospects for continued strong profitable growth are fueled by our focus on both game sales and participation revenue growth and our ability to simultaneously achieve higher operating margins. With the best game development team in the industry, leading manufacturing and sales and marketing teams and a pristine balance sheet, we look forward to further realizing the potential of our business and market position as casinos continue to evolve and adopt the leading-edge products and technologies being pioneered by WMS.”

Adjusted EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and share-based compensation) is a supplemental non-GAAP financial metric used by our management and commonly used by industry analysts to evaluate our financial performance. Adjusted EBITDA provides additional useful information to investors regarding our ability to service debt and is a commonly used financial analysis tool for measuring and comparing gaming companies in areas of liquidity, operating performance, valuation and leverage. Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an alternative to operating income (as an indicator of our operating performance) or net cash from operations (as a measure of liquidity) as determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. All companies do not calculate Adjusted EBITDA in necessarily the same manner, and WMS’ presentation may not be comparable to those presented by other companies.
