Scientific Games to provide 5,000 video lottery terminals to Greece
Las Vegas-based Scientific Games Corp. said Tuesday it signed a deal with the company that manages the lottery in Greece and will provide 5,000 slot machinelike video lottery terminals to the country’s gaming market.
The games — which operate through a central server — are part of 16,500 video lottery terminals operated throughout Greece.
Financial terms of the contract were not disclosed.
The agreement calls for Scientific Games to begin deploying the games this spring and will conclude by year-end.
Eilers Research founder Todd Eilers said the deal with Greece was one of the first transactions that included products from Bally Technologies, WMS and Scientific Games.
The lottery company spent $1.5 billion to buy WMS in 2013 and $5.1 billion to acquire Bally last year.
“Scientific Games uses its strong international lottery relationships and request for proposal experience while WMS and Bally provide the strong game content and technology,” Eilers told investors.
