GAMING PARTNERS INTERNATIONAL CORPORATION
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) has two operating subsidiaries, Gaming Partners International USA, Inc. (GPI USA) and Gaming Partners International SAS (GPI SAS). 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 by Paul S. Endy, Jr., and initially manufactured and sold dice to casinos in Las Vegas, Nevada. GPI SAS was founded in 1923 as Bourgogne et Grasset 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 shareholder. The Company has established brand names such as Paulson®, Bourgogne et Grasset® (“B&G”), 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 Las Vegas, Nevada; San Luis Rio Colorado, Mexico; and Beaune, France. GPI USA has sales offices in Las Vegas, Nevada; Atlantic City, New Jersey; and Gulfport, Mississippi and sells our casino products to licensed casinos primarily in the United States and Canada. GPI SAS has a sales office in Beaune, France and sells our casino products internationally to licensed casinos. Most of our products are sold directly to end-users, however, in some regions of the world we sell through distributors.
Our business activities include the manufacture and supply of gaming chips, table layouts, 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 Polices
Basis of Consolidation and Presentation. The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of GPIC and its wholly-owned subsidiaries GPI SAS, GPI USA, and GPI Mexicana. 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, 2009.
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.
Reclassification. Certain prior period amounts in the condensed consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the June 30, 2010 presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on our net income. These reclassifications relate to including product development expenses in general and administrative expenses, instead of presenting these expenses separately.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards. In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2010-06, Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements (Topic 820) — Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures. ASU No. 2010-06 provides for more robust disclosures about the assets and liabilities measured at fair value, the valuation techniques used and disclosure regarding transfers between levels 1, 2 and 3. ASU No. 2010-06 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2009 and for interim periods within that fiscal year. The adoption of ASU No. 2010-06 did not impact the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
In October 2009, the FASB issued ASU No. 2009-13, Revenue Recognition (Topic 605) — Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements. ASU No. 2009-13 addresses the accounting for multiple-deliverable arrangements to enable companies to account for products or services (deliverables) separately rather than as a combined unit since companies often provide multiple products or services to their customers. This guidance establishes a selling price hierarchy for determining the selling price of a deliverable. ASU No. 2009-13 is effective prospectively for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010 and early adoption is permitted. Management is currently evaluating the requirements of ASU No. 2009-13 and has not yet determined the impact, if any, on our consolidated financial statements.
Note 2. Marketable Securities

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 fall into the Level 1 category, with asset values recorded at quoted prices in active markets for identical assets.

In June 2010, a partially amortized patent was impaired and removed, resulting in a reduction to the gross carrying value of $12,500, accumulated amortization of $4,800, and impairment loss of $7,700.
Amortization expense for intangible assets for the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 was $16,000 and $5,000, respectively. Amortization expense for intangible assets for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 was $31,000 and $10,000, respectively.
Note 6. 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 June 27, 2007, a putative class action complaint alleging violations of federal securities laws based on alleged misstatements and omissions by the Company, entitled Robert J. Kaplan v. Gerard P. Charlier, Paul S. Dennis, Eric P. Endy, Alain Thieffry, Elisabeth Carrette, Robert J. Kelly, Charles R. Henry, Laura McAllister Cox and Gaming Partners International Corporation was filed in the United States District Court for the District of Nevada, under Case No. 2:07-cv-00849-LDG-GWF. Plaintiff Kaplan has been designated by the court as “Lead Plaintiff.” On February 12, 2008, Plaintiff filed an amended complaint, deleting several of the above named defendants, and adding three others. The action is now captioned Robert J. Kaplan v. Gerard P. Charlier, Melody J. Sullivan a/k/a Melody Sullivan Yowell, David Grimes, Charles T. McCullough, Eric P. Endy, Elisabeth Carrette and Gaming Partners International Corporation. The Company engaged counsel and intends to vigorously defend against the claims presented. Defendants filed a Motion to Dismiss the Complaint on April 16, 2008. Defendants’ Motion to Dismiss was thereafter granted and an Order was entered dismissing the Amended Complaint without prejudice on November 18, 2008. Plaintiff filed a Second Amended Complaint on January 9, 2009. Defendants’ Motion to Dismiss the Second Amended Complaint was filed on February 27, 2009. On September 28, 2009, Defendants’ motion was granted and judgment dismissing the Second Amended Complaint with prejudice was entered on September 29, 2009. On October 29, 2009, Plaintiff filed his Notice of Appeal of the Court’s judgment to the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals. All briefings have been concluded and the matter awaits further action by the Court.
On January 22, 2009, a complaint was filed in a matter entitled Sibel Products, Inc. vs. Gaming Partners International Corporation in the Circuit Court of the Second Judicial District of Jefferson County, Illinois, Case No. 09-L-4. The complaint sought a preliminary injunction in connection with an exclusive purchase agreement, for particular raw materials used to manufacture finished goods, between plaintiff and GPI USA. On January 30, 2009, the Company filed a notice of removal of the action to the United States District Court for the Southern District of Illinois and Case Number 3:09-cv-87 was assigned. As previously reported in our first quarter Form 10-Q, after commencement of trial on the matter on March 22, 2010, the matter was concluded as follows: plaintiff’s claims against the current manufacturing supplier were dismissed with prejudice; plaintiff’s claims against Gaming Partners International Corporation were dismissed with prejudice; and judgment was entered in favor of Gaming Partners International USA, Inc. and against plaintiff on the counterclaim. Subsequently, plaintiff and GPI USA entered into a settlement agreement to fully resolve the remaining claims in this matter for less than the judgement amount. The Court’s Order and Final Judgment were entered by the Court on June 14, 2010. All conditions of the settlement agreement have been met and the matter is concluded.
We are 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 the consolidated financial position or results of operations.
Commitments

Note 8. Geographic and Product Line Information
We manufacture and sell casino table game equipment and have determined that we operate in one operating segment - casino game equipment products. Although the Company derives its revenues from a number of different product lines, the Company does not allocate resources based on the operating results from the individual product lines nor does it manage each individual product line as a separate business unit.

Note 10. 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 assumed stock options. Potentially dilutive securities are not taken into account when their effect would be antidilutive.
The weighted-average number of common shares outstanding used in the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share is as follows (in thousands):
| | Three Months Ended | | | Six Months Ended | |
| | June 30, | | | June 30, | |
| | 2010 | | | 2009 | | | 2010 | | | 2009 | |
Weighted average number of common shares outstanding - Basic | | | 8,199 | | | | 8,103 | | | | 8,199 | | | | 8,103 | |
Potential dilution from stock options | | | 8 | | | | 82 | | | | 6 | | | | - | |
Weighted average number of common shares outstanding - Diluted | | | 8,207 | | | | 8,185 | | | | 8,205 | | | | 8,103 | |
For the six months ended June 30, 2009, the Company was in a loss position and, accordingly, the basic and diluted weighted average shares outstanding were equal because any increase to the basic shares would have been antidilutive. Therefore, we did not calculate the dilutive effect of the 561,000 options then outstanding.
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, 2009.
For a Company Overview and information on our products as well as general information, see Part I—Item 1. Business of the Company’s Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2009.
Overview of our Business
GPIC manufactures and supplies casino chips, under the brand names of Paulson®, Bourgogne et Grasset®, and Bud Jones®, (including low and high frequency RFID casino chips), low and high frequency RFID readers, 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; San Luis Rio Colorado, Mexico; Atlantic City, New Jersey; and Gulfport, Mississippi. GPIC sells its products to licensed casinos worldwide. We operate in one segment and have two operating subsidiaries: GPI USA and GPI SAS, a French subsidiary. Our subsidiaries have the following distribution and product focus:
| · | GPI USA sells in the Americas out of regional offices in the United States. GPI USA sells our full product line with most of the products manufactured in Mexico with the remainder either manufactured in the United States or France. |
| · | GPI SAS sells internationally out of Beaune, France, with most sales occurring in Europe and Asia. GPI SAS predominately 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. |
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 nature of these events is difficult to forecast and largely beyond our ability to influence, which creates variability in revenue 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 report, which reflects signed orders that we expect to ship in the remainder of 2010.
Backlog |
| | | | | | | | |
| GPI USA | | GPI SAS | | Total |
June 30, 2010 | $ 4.7 million | | $ 5.6 million | | $ 10.3 million |
June 30, 2009 | $ 3.2 million | | $ 7.0 million | | $ 10.2 million |
Overview of our Industry
In the United States, the general slow down in the gaming industry has negatively affected our casino customers and therefore our sales. Casinos have been working to reduce their operating costs and capital expenditures. We have seen a slowing down of the typical replacement cycle for consumable products, such as our cards, layouts and dice, as well as a reduction in casino openings, expansions, and replacement orders, on which our casino chip and furniture sales are largely dependent. To the extent these economic conditions continue, we anticipate that our revenues in future quarters could be adversely affected.
Apart from the above general industry trends, the states of Pennsylvania and Delaware recently legalized table games and licensed GPI USA as an equipment vendor. In the second quarter, we shipped products from each of our product lines to all of the Pennsylvania casinos that were opened in early July 2010. We expect some modest sales to these casinos during the second half of 2010, but most of our sales were shipped in the second quarter. Additionally, we supplied products to three Delaware casinos and two West Virginia casinos that also commenced table game operations during the second quarter.
Internationally, Macau continues to be the largest gaming market and has recently posted record gaming revenues. Other parts of Asia are also becoming significant gaming destinations. In Singapore, the Sentosa casino and the Marina Bay Sands casino opened in February and April 2010, respectively.
Financial and Operational Highlights
For the second quarter of 2010, our revenues were $19.9 million, an increase of $8.6 million, or 76%, compared to revenues of $11.3 million for the same period of 2009. Our net income for the second quarter of 2010 was $2.7 million, compared to a net income of $0.2 million for the same period in 2009. The improvement in our operating results was primarily due to sales totaling $6.6 million in the second quarter to casinos in Pennsylvania, Delaware, and West Virginia, as well as sales totaling $5.0 million to the Marina Bay Sands Casino in Singapore.
The Company completed most of its expected shipments to Pennsylvania casinos in the second quarter of 2010, with sales for openings completed in Delaware and West Virginia as well.
Other Matters
GPI SAS uses the euro as its functional currency. As of June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009 the US dollar to euro exchange rates were $1.2271 to one euro and $1.4406 to one euro, respectively, which represents a 14.8% stronger dollar compared to the euro. The average exchange rates for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and June 30, 2009 were 1.3301 and 1.3322, which represents a 0.2% stronger dollar compared to the euro.
This significant strengthening of the dollar compared to the euro during the first half of 2010 resulted in a large reduction in foreign currency translation in other comprehensive income in the balance sheet to $152,000 at June 30, 2010 from $3,273,000 at December 31, 2009.
GPI Mexicana uses the US Dollar as its functional currency. The average exchange rates for the quarters ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 were 12.55 pesos to the US dollar and 13.36 pesos to the US dollar, respectively, which represents a 6.1% weaker dollar compared to the Mexican peso. The weaker dollar compared with the Mexican peso had an unfavorable impact of $0.1 million for the first quarter as our manufacturing costs were increased.
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, 2009.

Revenues. For the three months ended June 30, 2010, revenues were $19.9 million, an increase of $8.6 million, or 76.0%, compared to revenues of $11.3 million during the same period in 2009. This increase was due primarily to significant sales in all product lines to casinos located in Pennsylvania, Delaware and West Virginia, which recently commenced table game operations, as well as increased sales of European-style and American-style chips to casinos in Singapore and Macau.
For the six months ended June 30, 2010, revenues were $30.9 million, an increase of $10.6 million, or 52.3%, compared to revenues of $20.3 million during the same period in 2009. This increase was due primarily to significant sales in all product lines to casinos located in Pennsylvania, Delaware and West Virginia, which recently commenced table game operations, as well as increased sales of European-style and American-style chips to casinos in Singapore and Macau.
Cost of Revenues. For the three months ended June 30, 2010, cost of revenues was $11.3 million, an increase of $3.1 million, or 38.2%, compared to cost of revenues of $8.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009. As a percentage of revenues, the cost of revenues decreased to 56.9% for the quarter in 2010 from 72.4% for the quarter in 2009.
For the six months ended June 30, 2010, cost of revenues was $18.6 million, an increase of $3.9 million, or 26.3%, compared to cost of revenues of $14.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009. As a percentage of revenues, the cost of revenues decreased to 60.3% for the quarter in 2010 from 72.7% for the quarter in 2009.
Gross Profit. For the three months ended June 30, 2010, gross profit was $8.6 million, an increase of $5.5 million, or 175.1%, compared to gross profit of $3.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009. As a percentage of revenues, our gross margin increased to 43.1% from 27.6% in the comparable prior year quarter. This gross margin percentage increase was primarily driven by a shift in sales mix towards higher margin product lines, such as casino chips. Higher sales also resulted in fixed manufacturing costs being allocated over higher production volumes. Additionally, we experienced production problems that increased our manufacturing costs, as a percent of sales, in the second quarter of 2009.
For the six months ended June 30, 2010, gross profit was $12.3 million, an increase of $6.8 million, or 121.5%, compared to gross profit of $5.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009. As a percentage of revenues, our gross margin increased from 27.3% to 39.7%. This gross margin percentage increase was driven by the same factors as those for the second quarter, namely, a shift in sales mix towards higher margin product lines, fixed manufacturing costs being allocated over higher production volumes, and production problems that increased our manufacturing costs, as a percent of sales, in the second quarter of 2009.
Selling, General, and Administrative Expenses. The following tables detail the selling, general, and administrative expenses (in thousands):

The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was primarily due to an increase in compensation and bonuses of $0.6 million, including severance pay of $0.1 million, legal expenses of $0.2 million and an increase in bad debt expense of $0.1 million. Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased as a percent of revenue to 20.3% in 2010 from 27.0% in 2009.

Income Taxes. Our effective income tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2010 was 42.6% compared to the effective income tax rate of (233.9)% for the three months ended June 30, 2009. Our effective tax rate for the quarter ended June 30, 2010 was negatively affected by the decrease in the tax basis of certain intangible assets. The Company monitors its deferred tax assets to assess whether they will be realizable. Using a more likely than not threshold, during the three months ended June 30, 2010, the Company considered additional information and concluded that certain intangible asset tax basis would not be realizable and, accordingly, reduced the related deferred tax asset by approximately $500,000. Our effective tax rate for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 also differed from the statutory rate as a result of the benefit from a research credit from our French subsidiary, GPI SAS, combined with having small book income before income taxes for the second quarter.
Our effective income tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2010 was 42.5% compared to 53.8% for the same period of 2009. Our effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2010 differed from the statutory rate as a result of the decrease in the tax basis of certain intangible assets. The Company monitors its deferred tax assets to assess whether they will be realizable. Using a more likely than not threshold, during the six months ended June 30, 2010, the Company considered additional information and concluded that certain intangible asset tax basis would not be realizable and, accordingly, reduced the related deferred tax asset by approximately $500,000. Our effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2009 differed from the statutory rate as a result of the benefit from a research credit from our French subsidiary, GPI SAS, combined with having a net loss before income tax for the six month period.
Our corporate tax rate is calculated on a consolidated basis. Our corporate costs are not allocated to our French subsidiary, GPI SAS.
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 potential sources of capital include, but are not limited to, marketable securities and 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, debt service, and other cash requirements, such as dividends or acquisitions, for a minimum of the next 12 months.
As of June 30, 2010, we had $4.5 million in cash and cash equivalents and $14.0 million in marketable securities, totaling $18.5 million. Of this amount, $14.3 million is held by GPI SAS and $4.2 million is held by GPI USA. Our ability to permanently transfer cash from GPI SAS, our French subsidiary, to the United States is restricted due to unfavorable tax consequences and profit retention requirements under French law.
Working Capital (See Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets). The following summarizes our cash and cash equivalents, working capital (in thousands), and current ratio:
| | June 30, | | | December 31, | | | | | | | |
| | 2010 | | | 2009 | | | Period to Period Change | |
Cash and cash equivalents | | $ | 4,510 | | | $ | 3,238 | | | $ | 1,272 | | | | 39.3 | % |
Marketable securities | | $ | 14,038 | | | $ | 15,600 | | | $ | (1,562 | ) | | | (10.0 | )% |
Working capital | | $ | 24,631 | | | $ | 22,694 | | | $ | 1,937 | | | | 8.5 | % |
Current ratio | | | 3.2 | | | | 2.8 | | | | | | | | | |
As of June 30, 2010, working capital totaled $24.6 million, an increase of $1.9 million, or 8.5%, compared to working capital of $22.7 million as of December 31, 2009. This increase is due to an increase of $0.1 million in current assets and to a decrease in current liabilities of $1.8 million. The increase in current assets was due primarily to an increase in accounts receivable of $2.5 million, offset by a decrease in current inventory of $1.4 million. The increase in accounts receivable as of June 30, 2010 compared to December 31, 2009 is due to sales to Pennsylvania, Delaware and West Virginia casinos at the end of the second quarter of 2010. The decrease in current liabilities was due primarily to decreases in customer deposits of $1.7 million. The decrease in customer deposits is primarily attributable to deposits made in conjunction with Pennsylvania orders applied against sales recorded at the end of the second quarter of 2010.
Cash Flows (See Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flow). The following summarizes our cash flow (in thousands):
| | Six Months Ended | | | | | | | |
| | June 30, | | | | | | | |
| | 2010 | | | 2009 | | | Period to Period Change | |
Operating activities | | $ | 2,966 | | | $ | 5,014 | | | $ | (2,048 | ) | | | (40.8 | )% |
Investing activities | | | (828 | ) | | | (3,226 | ) | | | 2,398 | | | | 74.3 | % |
Financing activities | | | (744 | ) | | | (248 | ) | | | (496 | ) | | | (200.0 | )% |
Effect of exchange rates | | | (122 | ) | | | 13 | | | | (135 | ) | | | — | |
Net change | | $ | 1,272 | | | $ | 1,553 | | | $ | (281 | ) | | | (18.1 | )% |
Net cash provided by operations was $3.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2010, a decrease of $2.0 million, compared to $5.0 million during the same period in 2009. For the six months ended June 30, 2010, $4.4 million of cash was provided by net income and related reconciling adjustments; $1.3 million was used by an increase in operating assets (excluding cash), primarily the increase in accounts receivable; and $0.1 million was used by a decrease in current liabilities, primarily the increase in accounts payable and accruals, offset by a decrease in customer deposits. For the six months ended June 30, 2009, $0.8 million of cash was provided by net income and related reconciling adjustments; $0.8 million of cash was used by a decrease in operating assets (excluding cash) and $5.0 million was provided by an increase in current liabilities, primarily customer deposits.
Our investing activities resulted in net cash used of $0.8 million during the six months ended June 30, 2010, a decrease of $2.4 million compared to net cash used by investing activities of $3.2 million during the same period in 2009. This decrease in cash used in investing activities is attributable to a decrease in net purchases of marketable securities of $2.5 million during the six months ended June 30, 2010 compared the same period in 2009.
Net cash used in financing activities was $0.7 million during the six months ended June 30, 2010, an increase of $0.5 million compared to net cash used in financing activities of $0.2 million during the same period in 2009. Cash decreased as $0.7 million of long-term debt was paid off in 2010.
Long-Term Debt. In March 2002, GPI USA entered into a $995,000 loan transaction secured by a deed of trust on its Las Vegas building. In September 2009 this loan was paid in full.
In May 2004, GPI SAS borrowed 350,000 euros (approximately $423,000 in May 2004) from a French bank. The loan had a fixed interest rate of 3.6% per annum, was due in May 2011, and was secured by a mortgage on the manufacturing facility in France. In April 2010 this loan was paid in full.
In June 2006, GPI SAS borrowed 1.5 million euros (approximately $1.9 million in June 2006) from a French bank. The loan had a five-year term at a fixed rate of 3.4% per annum. The loan was repayable in fixed quarterly installments of principal and interest. In March 2010 this loan was paid in full.
As of June 30, 2010, the remaining long-term debt balances relate to obligations under capital leases.
Seasonality. Seasonality is difficult to determine due to the significant revenue fluctuations we experience on a quarterly basis. History indicates that the first quarter is typically one of the lowest revenue quarters for the year.
Las Vegas, Nevada Facilities. In Las Vegas we own an approximately 60,000 square-foot building, which houses the Las Vegas corporate and sales offices, as well as a centralized warehouse, several manufacturing departments, and a graphics art department.
San Luis Rio Colorado, Mexico Facilities. We manufacture casino chips, playing cards, dice, plastic products, layouts and tables at three facilities in San Luis Rio Colorado, Mexico. These facilities include a 34,000 square-foot leased facility, a 46,000 square-foot leased facility, and an approximately 66,000 square-foot facility, which we own. The two leased facilities are leased through December 2013 at a monthly rental amount of $0.35 per square foot, or approximately $28,000.
San Luis, Arizona Warehouse. In April 2010, we leased an approximately 7,000 square-foot warehouse facility in San Luis, Arizona. The facility is leased through April 2011.
Beaune, France Facilities. In Beaune, we own an approximately 34,000 square-foot manufacturing facility and a 15,000 square-foot administrative and sales building.
Capital Expenditures. We plan to purchase approximately $0.5 million in property, plant and equipment in the remainder of 2010.
Cash Dividend. Our Board of Directors has no plans to pay a regular dividend on our common stock; however the Board of Directors will continuously evaluate the merits of paying a special dividend. We paid a $1.0 million dividend, or $0.125 per share, in December 2009.
Backlog. At June 30, 2010, our backlog of signed orders, which is expected to be filled in 2010, was $10.3 million, consisting of $4.7 million for GPI USA and $5.6 million for GPI SAS. At June 30, 2009, our backlog of signed orders for 2009 was $10.2 million, consisting of $3.2 million for GPI USA and $7.0 million for GPI SAS.
Contractual Obligations and Commercial Commitments
There were no material changes in the contractual obligations and commercial commitments during the three months ended June 30, 2010.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In October 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2009-13, Revenue Recognition (Topic 605) — Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements. ASU No. 2009-13 addresses the accounting for multiple-deliverable arrangements to enable companies to account for products or services (deliverables) separately rather than as a combined unit since companies often provide multiple products or services to their customers. This guidance establishes a selling price hierarchy for determining the selling price of a deliverable. ASU No. 2009-13 is effective prospectively for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010 and early adoption is permitted. Management is currently evaluating the requirements of ASU No. 2009-13 and has not yet determined the impact, if any, on our condensed consolidated financial statements.
In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2010-06, Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements (Topic 820) — Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures. ASU No. 2010-06 provides for more robust disclosures abut the assets and liabilities measured at fair value, the valuation techniques used and disclosure regarding transfers between levels 1, 2 and 3. ASU No. 2010-06 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2009 and for interim periods within that fiscal year. The adoption of ASU No. 2010-06 did not impact the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
