GTECH Launches New Website, Reduces Loan

GTECH has launched an integrated, end-to-end website to serve lottery and casino gaming customers with a single source of information on the company’s solutions.

Lottery and casino gaming supplier GTECH S.p.A. announced the launch of its new integrated website, www.gtech.com. The site provides customers, investors and the industry with a single source of information about GTECH’s complete end-to-end solutions across all channels.

The new site applies the latest and best practices of web design for ease of navigation, visual appeal and device flexibility, including mobile and tablet use.

“We have created this new, comprehensive yet easy-to-navigate portal, www.gtech.com, to ensure that customers and the industry can conveniently access our complete offering in one place,” said Robert K. Vincent, GTECH senior vice president of human resources and public affairs.

A simplified navigation menu enables visitors to quickly access information, eliminating multiple clicks. “Explore GTECH” offers details about the corporate, governance, investor relations and media-facing information. The “Products and Services” menu allows visitors to view the company’s comprehensive portfolio of solutions and services across the lottery, Spielo gaming, interactive and betting segments.

The new site strategically integrates legacy GTECH websites into one single source of information. Visitors to the legacy sites will now automatically be redirected to the new site, which is available in English and Italian.

In other GTECH news, the company announced that its 364-day senior-bridge term loan credit facility commitment for the acquisition financing of IGT has been reduced from approximately $10.7 billion to around $10.2 billion.

The announcement follows the solicitation of consent by International Game Technology (IGT) to amend the IGT indentures pursuant to which IGT’s 7.50 percent notes due 2019 were issued, which concluded on October 20. This is due to the fact that backstop-financing for the 2019 notes is no longer required. The allocation to each bank has been reduced pro-rata.
