PlayAGS Inc (AGS) 2022 Q2 法說會逐字稿

Good afternoon, and thank you for attending today's PlayAGS Q2 2022 Earnings Call. My name is Austin, and I will be your moderator for today. (Operator Instructions) I would now like to pass the conference over to our host, Brad Boyer, SVP, Corporate Operations and Investor Relations. Brad, you may begin.

Thank you, operator, and good afternoon, everyone. Welcome to the PlayAGS Inc. second quarter 2022 earnings conference call. With me today are: David Lopez, CEO; and Kimo Akiona, CFO. A slide presentation reviewing our key operational and financial highlights for the second quarter ended June 30, 2022, can be found on our Investor Relations website, investors.playags.com.

With that, I would like to turn the call over to our CEO, David Lopez.

Thanks, Brad, and good afternoon, everyone. As I reflect upon our second quarter financial performance, I can't help but think back to the sentiment in the market exactly one year ago. As you may recall, most investors were wondering if the trends that we're seeing across the broader U.S. game industry were as good as it gets, with stars online for our casino operator partners in Q2 of 2021, resulting in record setting of gaming revenue for nearly every operator in the major U.S. markets. At the time, though we were able to leverage the strength in the broader market to establish some new records of our own, I was fairly confident, Q2 2021 did not reflect peak performance for AGS. Our 2022 second quarter results validated those views from one year ago, as we were able to build upon several records established last year. Let's take a few minutes to review some of the record-setting highlights from the quarter.

First, Q2 2022 domestic EGM gaming ops revenue increased 1% year-over-year to a new company record of $46.2 million. Although modest growth, we are extremely encouraged by this accomplishment, considering it was achieved against the prior year period that comprised the greatest 3 months in the history of gaming. Second, our installed base of premium EGM products nearly doubled year-over-year, accounting for 12% of our domestic EGM installed base at the end of Q2 2022 compared to 6% this time last year.

Our continued success in the premium game category, serves to highlight the strong returns we have been able to generate on tactical investments into R&D, sales and product management teams. Third, our Table Products segment continues to fire on all cylinders, with revenues and adjusted EBITDA setting new all-time record in the quarter. Early commercialization of our PAX S single back shuffler, accelerating demand for our Bonus Spin Xtreme progressive, and growing customer adoption of AGS site licenses, drove our record-setting table games performance.

With all that said, I imagine some of you are probably wondering, if Q2 2021 wasn't as good as it gets for AGS, how should we think about Q2 of this year. From my perspective, though several new records were established in the quarter, I believe, we can significantly build upon our recent success moving forward. Looking ahead, while I'm encouraged by our recent financial performance and excited about the direction which we are heading from a product perspective, I'm equally as enthused by the sales and product management teams we have in place to monetize our R&D investments.

Over the past 24 months, we have added considerable talent to the front end of the business, which has directly supported our impressive premium installed base growth and record domestic gaming ops revenue. Our recent success clearly demonstrates the power of having our R&D team work in concert with the front end of the business, to allow our products to reach a broader subset of key customers. In addition to our execution-led growth catalyst, we continue to search for strategic opportunities capable of transforming the long-term growth trajectory of our business. Recent examples of these types of opportunities include, our successful expansion into the Historical Horse Racing, or HHR market, and continued exploration of avenues to accentuate growth outside of our core North American markets. Additionally, we continue to look for opportunities to further leverage key competitive advantages, including our extensive game content portfolio, unique development capabilities and deeply rooted customer relationships to strategically broaden our Class 2 business.

Recently, these efforts have extended well beyond the borders of our largest Class 2 markets, as we were able to benefit from a favorable June Supreme Court ruling to execute growth opportunities presented to us within the Texas Class 2 market, a market we have set pathways supporting for a very long time. While it's still too early to put hard numbers around what the Supreme Court ruling will mean for us in terms of incremental revenue or EBITDA in the long run, we believe our historical support of tribal operators within the state, could present us with meaningful growth opportunities as our customers elect to expand the scale and scope of their existing Class 2 operations.

Looking beyond EGMs, we see an equally compelling growth trajectory with our table product and interactive businesses. Supported by the 3x growth engine of PAX S, Bonus Spin Xtreme and AGS Arsenal, we continue to identify a long runway for growth within our table games division. Over the past few years, we have proven to be the most innovative product company in the industry, most recently highlighted by the launch of a homegrown shuffler, PAX S. I know we have covered it on previous calls, but this is the first competitive single-deck specialty shuffler to be released in North America in over 15 years, breaking up the dominant position held by one of our competitors.

Turning to Interactive. We continue to make progress on our strategic plan to further leverage our high-performing game content and strong customer relationships, to significantly grow our share of the North American RMG market. Q2 provided a glimpse of where we believe our RMG business is heading, as North American RMG revenues increased by over 15% sequentially. As with the land-based business, we continue to be encouraged by the strong performance and AGS game content in the online channel. To that end, I think it's important to remind everyone that we have achieved a top 5 supplier ranking in the Eilers Online Gaming Performance Report for 6 consecutive months. Moving forward, as we execute upon initiatives to accelerate the flow of AGS content, broaden our B2C operator partner relationships, and expand our reach into untapped North American jurisdictions, we believe we will see a material acceleration of growth within our interactive business in the quarters ahead.

Before closing, I would like to share some perspective on the trends that we have observed within the business through July. Despite strolling uncertainty over the health of the consumer and the direction of the global economy, we have been encouraged by the incredible consistency demonstrated within our business quarter to date, as we have witnessed no meaningful change in July trends as compared to our strong June results. Finally, I would like to remind everyone, we drive over 70% of our annualized revenue from recurring sources and our balance sheet is in great shape with over $70 million of available liquidity at quarter end and no maturities until 2027. With that, I will turn the call over to Kimo to walk you through our second quarter results in greater detail.

Thank you, David, and good afternoon, everyone. I would like to start off today's call by reviewing several highlights from the second quarter, and providing some perspective on how we see the business trending, as we look forward into Q3. I will also address a few items related to the balance sheet, and close by sharing some thoughts on our capital allocation priorities for the remainder of the year. It is important to note my forward-looking commentary assumes no material change in prevailing global macroeconomic conditions.

Turning first to our domestic EGM business. Second quarter domestic EGM RPD increased 6% on a quarterly sequential basis to $32.55 topping $30 for the fifth consecutive quarter. The sustained strength in our domestic EGM RPD performance, reflects continued successful execution of our premium game growth initiative, with premium units increasing by 15% sequentially, the compounding benefit of our installed base optimization efforts and resilient industry-wide GGR trends.

Looking ahead to the third quarter, as David mentioned, trends within our domestic EGM recurring revenue business remained remarkably consistent through July. That said, we do expect industry-wide domestic gaming market revenues to moderate slightly, as the quarter progresses following a historically normal seasonal pattern. Accelerating demand for our premium EGM products, and further implementation of our optimization initiatives, should offset a good portion of these seasonal influences, in turn, allowing us to sustain third quarter domestic EGM RPD comfortably above $30.

Shifting to our domestic EGM installed base. We had a total of 16,027 units installed at the end of the second quarter, representing an increase of 112 units sequentially, upside resulting from our outsized growth within our premium EGM installed base, supported by the strong performance and growing customer adoption of Orion Curve Premium, and the modest expansion of our Texas Class 2 footprint on the heels of the recent favorable Supreme Court ruling -- was partially offset by the impact of our continuous fleet optimization efforts.

We expect our domestic EGM installed base to further expand in the third quarter, fueled by accelerating customer demand for our high-performing premium EGM products. Looking at EGM sales, we sold a total of 934 units globally in the second quarter, representing an increase of over 50% versus the prior year. Our global unit sales performance continues to benefit from the strategic broadening of our customer account penetration, the harvesting of initial returns from our accelerated R&D investments, further leveraging of our exceptional HHR game performance, and complementary unit sales into select international markets. Additionally, we believe, our manufacturing team's ability to maintain lead times in line with pre-COVID norms, has created a key competitive advantage for our EGM sales business.

Looking ahead to the third quarter, we expect to further benefit from the strategic initiatives I just described. Additionally, we have yet to observe any meaningful change in operators' capital spending behavior in response to the recent global macroeconomic volatility. Combined, we believe these factors should allow us to offset a good portion of the seasonal moderation in sales activity that often occurs in the lead up to G2E, resulting in Q3 global unit sales volumes that are relatively consistent with Q2 levels. Second quarter domestic average selling price, or ASP, eclipsed $19,000 for the third consecutive quarter, supported by steady demand for our premium-priced Orion Curve cabinet, and continued implementation of our price integrity program. Although anticipated composition of changes are likely to moderate our Q3 2022 domestic ASP performance relative to Q2 levels, we believe we should be able to stay around the $19,000 level for the fourth consecutive quarter.

Turning to our international EGM segment. RPD increased 8% sequentially to $6.69, reflecting the consistent recovery we continue to witness within our Mexico business. International EGM RPD has now increased sequentially for 8 consecutive quarters. We estimate, approximately 93% of our international recurring revenue units were active and playable at the end of the second quarter compared to 80% at Q1 quarter end. Our international EGM installed base decreased by 428 units sequentially, predominantly driven by the imposition of a new gaming tax in one Mexican state. Looking ahead, our outlook for the remainder of the year remains unchanged, as we expect international EGM RPD to continue its gradual recovery with full retractment to prepandemic levels occurring sometime in 2023. We sold a total of 76 EGM units into international markets in Q2 2022, bringing our year-to-date international sales to 94 units. We have identified additional international EGM sales opportunities, which we expect to execute upon throughout the back half of the year.

Looking beyond EGMs, our Table Products business delivered second quarter revenue of $3.5 million, establishing a new company record for the fourth consecutive quarter. Quarterly segment adjusted EBITDA exceeded $2 million for the first time, supported by a record-setting revenue performance and the business's strong margin profile with Q2 adjusted EBITDA margin exceeding 57%. Looking ahead to Q3, we expect accelerating PAX S shuffler rollout momentum, steady Bonus Spin Xtreme progressive demand and additional AGS Arsenal site license adoption, to increase the rate of quarterly sequential revenue growth achieved within our Table Products business.

Shifting to Interactive. Trends within our business continue to reflect early returns from our decision to strategically refocus our resources to better capitalize upon near-to-immediate term growth opportunities within the regulated North American RMG market. We generated Q2 RMG revenue of $2.1 million, representing an increase of 7% sequentially. Looking more closely to our North American RMG business, revenue increased by over 15% sequentially, reaching a record $1.8 million. We derived approximately 85% of our Q2 '22 RMG revenue from North America end markets compared to 66% in Q2 2021. Importantly, we expect our improving RMG revenue trend to continue into Q3, supported by the improved flow of AGS content into the online channel, the activation of new B2C customer relationships, and the expansion of our online content reach into the additional North American jurisdictions.

Turning to margins. Second quarter adjusted EBITDA margin was approximately 45%, relatively consistent with the prior sequential quarter. We estimate transitory costs related to global supply chain and logistics disruption, impacted our adjusted EBITDA margin performance by approximately 100 basis points on a year-over-year basis. Looking ahead to the third quarter, while we are witnessing further moderation in global supply chain and logistics disruption, we continue to work through component inventory that was procured when supply chain disruption was more acute. Additionally, we also intend to make incremental R&D investments to support our long-term growth initiatives. As a result, we believe, we could temporarily experience modest compression in our Q3 adjusted EBITDA margin as compared to the 45% margins achieved in the first half of the year, with improved operating leverage and further supply chain normalization producing a Q4 margin that is more in line with first half levels.

Looking at the balance sheet. We ended the second quarter with net leverage of 4.1x, supported by our solid financial performance through the first 6 months of 2022, the product momentum building within multiple segments of our business, and the consistency we continue to observe within our day-to-day operations. We remain on pace to deliver upon our previously issued year-end 2022 net leverage target of less than 4x.

Before closing, I would like to offer some perspective on Q2 capital expenditures, and help frame our capital allocation outlook for the remainder of the year. Second quarter capital expense was $19 million, bringing our year-to-date capital spend to approximately $30 million. Gaming equipment related investments into our EGM and Table Product installed bases accounted for over 60% of capital expenditures incurred year-to-date. Driven by the accelerating demand we are seeing for our high-performing premium EGM products and the emergence of incremental placement opportunities into the Texas Class 2 market, following the favorable Supreme Court ruling in June, we now expect to incur full year capital expenditures of $62 million to $67 million, representing an increase of approximately $6 million at the respective midpoints versus our previously articulated range.

We generated over $9 million of free cash flow in the second quarter, bringing year-to-date free cash flow to just under $5 million. Looking out over the balance of the year, even after taking into account our revised CapEx outlook and the recent move, higher global interest rates into account, we expect second half free cash flow to meaningfully exceed the level generated in the first half of the year.

We continue to prioritize 2 channels for our excess cash flow, deleveraging and investing in ourselves. While we are on pace to achieve our year-end net leverage target of less than 4x, our intermediate term focus remains on restoring and subsequently improving upon the level of financial flexibility we had prior to COVID when our balance sheet was levered in the mid-3s. In addition to deleveraging, we continue to prioritize high-return opportunities to invest in ourselves, both through continued optimization of our AGM installed base, and the evaluation of strategic recurring revenue growth opportunities, both in new and existing end markets.

Operator, this concludes our prepared remarks. We would now like to open up the line for questions.

(Operator Instructions) Our first question is with Barry Jonas from Truist Securities.

I want to start with Texas. I know you said it's really too early to quantify anything, but maybe can you give more color on the magnitude of opportunity we could see there for AGS near term and longer term?

So a few things here. First, obviously, this is Class 2, which is great for us. It's right in our wheelhouse and our expertise. Also, within that sort of last 2 commentary is that, as we said in those prepared remarks that, we've really been sticking with these tribes in Texas and supporting their situation down there. We always believed firmly that they would prevail, which is really the rights that they have all along. So that's helping us as they expand, and we'll say sort of that ownee aspect, and certainly focusing on the letter E.

The other thing is that like, we've already started increasing our unit count there modestly. I'd say so the short-term effect will be modest. I wouldn't say it's small, but it's modest. And then the long-term effect hands-down should be one of our greatest opportunities over the next few years depending on when that expansion comes into play. But when it does happen, it's going to be exactly that and one of our best opportunities because, A, our commitment; B, we're Class 2 and this is our expertise; and C, we know these customers, I mean, the relationship on its own is fantastic. As far as giving you magnitude, it's just a little bit early on that. But you could probably make some assumptions knowing that a couple of the locations have a lot more bandwidth for growth. And when I say a lot more, it's really truly considerable. When we say an expansion, it would be obviously considerable expansions for some of these guys down there.

Just as a follow-up question, I wanted to touch on supply chain. A competitor last week noted its sales have been impacted as a result of those issues. I know you've talked about the margin hit, but are you seeing anything in terms of not being able to fulfill orders or maybe taking advantage of other people's challenges?

Yes. So we're not being affected at this point. And I'd say it's been steady as she goes. Our team in Oklahoma is -- they're fantastic. Best most at hands now again, but that group I've worked with in probably my entire career. They're always out in front of the ball. I'd like to say that by the time the senior team is asking them to jump on something, they had already jumped on it 60 to 90 days ago. Our lead times are largely the same as they've always been. So we're not losing any orders based on that. And I think we sneak in there and grab a couple of orders here and there. I know of a couple of instances where others could not deliver, and I know ourselves and maybe one other company that was able to do that. So 4 to 6 week lead time still, that's very consistent within the range that we have promised customers for years, I should say.

Our next question is with Jeff Stantial from Stifel.

Starting here on the game ops business, I wanted to unpack one of Kimo's comments towards the end a bit more regarding yields stay comfortably ahead of $30 per day, I believe is the verbiage. Kind of a 2-parter here. First, can you just frame out some of the puts and takes you're considering when you compare that commentary for Q3 to the $32.55 you reported for Q2? And then second, is it reasonable to think you can revert back to positive year-on-year growth now that we're mostly past the difficult stimulus comparison?

Yes. So a couple of things, Jeff. I think the comment being comfortably above $30. I think the way to think of it is, it's important to remind people that coming off of Q2, right -- So Q2 would normally be historically a seasonal high across the industry, and most definitely for us. So I would say Q2, generally the high watermark for the year. But offsetting that, going the other way, we -- again, assuming a stable macro, right, and as David sort of commented, I think, in his prepared remarks, like, we saw and have witnessed what July looked like, and we'll say July was great.

July was pretty consistent with what June looked like. But assuming stable macro, the ongoing initiative and momentum that we see in premium and additional placements -- and I'll say, higher-yielding placements that we've already made and will continue to make in the quarter, will help us land an RPD for Q3 '22 that will be at or maybe even slightly above Q3 of 2021. So I think that's probably a good way to frame up how we see RPD for Q3 of this year.

And then switching gears a bit. David, I believe you mentioned potentially exploring additional international markets that could complement the core North America market. Could you just expand upon that comment a little bit, any markets in particular that stand out that you're referring to?

We always try to stay away from this question, and I apologize because, until we truly launch in those markets, we don't want to get carried away with mentioning them. We've been prepping in a couple of markets for years, 3, 4 and even I'd say as much as 5 years, for some market opportunities in Latin America. I think that we're getting much closer to doing some soft launches. And when that time comes, we're going to get it right on top of that communication with you should those launches -- we'll it's almost like doing test banks in America here.

When we do test banks, we get our numbers, we determine how our games do, and then we move forward based on how that performance is. So, we're going to get out there. We'll do some test banks in Latin America, and then we'll talk a little bit more about, a, how it's going and b, maybe the size of those opportunities, as we begin them rolling out. I apologize for being so vague, but sometimes from a competitive aspect, we'd like to keep it a little covered up there.

Our next question is with Chad Beynon from Macquarie.

I wanted to ask about the premium units, which continue to grow. I think in the prepared remarks, you said it's at 12% right now. In the press release, you noted that you still have a good pipeline of new premium games. Can you just talk a little bit about maybe some near-term goals or kind of, Kimo, to your point on -- or can this continue to just account for a bigger piece of the portfolio through the rest of the year and then looking into '23?

Yes. So, I mean, we haven't thrown a target out there, right, Chad. So we haven't said like our short-term hurdle is to have our goal be 20% or something of our base. But what we will say is looking in the short term that, the momentum we see going into Q3, we'll say we'll see a slight acceleration in premium placements over what we just witnessed in Q2. So I mean, I don't think we're quite ready to throw a target out there yet as far as what our goal is for our mix in our face. But we will say it's very encouraging, the kind of momentum and the pipeline that we see, specifically behind premium for us.

I'll just add, Chad, and -- I'll just add that we know our competitors, and we know one of our closest competitors, they're about 40% on that figure. I'm not hanging out -- that out there as a goal. I'm saying that, that means that, those kind of things are achievable in our industry for smaller gaming suppliers. So, that's not a stated goal at this point with where we are right now. We're at 12%. Some others are above 40%. So we think we have some runway and we're -- and that's driven not by that performance of other companies, but what's going to drive this whole thing is our commitment to investing in R&D, and, quite honestly, the fact that we have supreme confidence in our team there and their ability to execute both from the core and premium side. But in this case, I know we're talking about premiums. So we feel very good about the future there.

And then separately on share repurchases, I think last quarter, you talked about potentially dipping your toe in the water with a keen focus on that sub-4x leverage, which you're still on track to meet. With the CapEx increase because of the Texas opportunity, does that push -- repose kind of down the list just because of the strong returns that you expect to get on Texas? Maybe that's a better use of the capital at this time?

Yes. I think you hit the nail on the head, right? I think it's an iterative process as far as how we think of where users' capital could be. But I think consistently, the winners have been invest in ourselves. And I think based on the momentum that we see in premium, most definitely, I think the Supreme Court decision around Texas and the opportunities that, that opens up in the short term and the longer term, I think it definitely puts that above something like share repurchases.

But I think like in the prepared remarks, what we said, right, I think our capital allocation strategy is, invest in ourselves, and then delever, and then after that I think we would look at something like share repurchases. So in the short term or midterm, I think share repurchases has pushed off a little bit. But most definitely, it's important to remind everyone, right, that we have that flexibility should something come up that it makes sense to be opportunistic and go out in the market and do something like that.

And that doesn't even count some of -- and I know Jeff had asked the question that we gave a bit of a failed answer on, but that doesn't count that if some of those things pop for us in our expansionary sort of areas, then we want to be mindful of what capital we'll need there as well. So we're excited about a lot of these opportunities, and I think Kimo obviously did a good job of framing up what our priorities are.

Our next question is with Edward Engel from ROTH Capital.

Congrats on another solid quarter. Some of the industry data on the slots is really showing the replacement cycle. It feels like it's recovered pretty well this year. Just kind of based on what you're seeing on the ground, does it feel like the replacement cycle has kind of accelerated as we progressed? Or does it kind of just rebase at a higher level earlier in the year and then kind of tails from there?

So you're asking -- I'm sorry, the line is a little off there, but you're asking is that accelerating at this point?

Yes, kind of, as we progress through the year, has that replacement cycle kind of accelerated or kind of stepped up early in the year than kind of plateaued?

I think it's been firm and consistent. I don't know that it's accelerating still at this point. I think it's stepped up and now it's been rather consistent. I think the driving forces from here on out will be some of our product releases that are coming up. So there are some things that we're excited about. As far as product release, cabinets, games, et cetera, that -- generally speaking, should drive some. And we -- Brad just asked a little bit of that on to me that Eilers does show some modest pickup. So, whether we want to refer to that as acceleration or just maybe a modest pickup, that's probably the best way to put it. That's the latest data from that front, which is an independent source, as we know.

And then just wondering -- I know you're kind of -- didn't want to get too much into it, but just any update you have on Brazil, at least just bigger picture? It looks like there was some updates on the regulatory front this year? And just kind of wanted to see what you're seeing down there?

So I think that there's a few things going on in Brazil. I don't think that you're going to see any big legislative changes at the moment. We are prepared for those, should they happen. But I think there could be some opportunities in Brazil over the coming years, if you want to call that. At the moment, we'll update as things transpire there. And we guys will be, I guess, you could say, the second or third now after our customers on this. But we're prepared. This is one of the reasons that earlier in the call I referred to it, and I said, hey, we've been prepping for jurisdictions in Latin America for a number of years, some over 3, 4 years. And when I say over those figures, to make sure that we're prepared for those opportunities when they pop. So we're ready, and I think that we're poised with the right products when that time comes.

Our next question is with David Katz from Jefferies.

So you talked a lot about the sort of RPD and premium mix relationship, which my sense is, is probably the largest earnings lever kind of in the model at this point. And have you done any math that you've talked about where, if your mix got to 20%, how accretive it might be to your RPD or every -- so it's such and such a number of units, ads, X or Y? Any calibration might be helpful.

Yes. So, I mean, we've got some sensitivity analysis on that, but that spreadsheet is pretty good spreadsheet about how it might impact our revenue, our EBITDA, et cetera. I think -- being that I don't have it in front of me, it's a little bit of a hard one to dig into it at the moment. I think the thing that is most glaring to me is that, one, it's firming up our installed base in general, right? So we're going to start seeing some sequential installed base growth here like we did from Q1 to Q2. We're expecting the same or a little bit better in Q3, right? From there, obviously, this is -- these are better opportunities than just your average install.

So we know, as you're saying, from a sensitivity point of view or how it will impact us that, that has a greater impact on us than anything else. And then from there we know that some of these installs that we can get out to such as Class 2, where it's true participation in many or most cases, no cap on that 80-20, those, again, can drive much higher RPDs, which all leads to sort of our recurring revenue run rate. I don't have the math right in front of me, and I don't want to do it off the top of my head. But if you look over time, where we used to sit in the past, sort of, I'll say -- and Kimo -- late '19 or early '20.

I guess the best way to say, David, would be late 2019. That -- we had retracted from a number of reasons. We have removed some integrity units. We had sort of reshaped the way we were doing business with a couple of customers which contracted our recurring revenue just because of the texture and the mix of the business that we did. And now what we've done is, we've not only come back from those numbers, but we're trending and our run rate is going to exceed that very soon now, and actually, our current run rate would exceed that. But throughout the rest of the year, we'll prove out, unit-based growth, RPD consistency, et cetera, will put us on a great trajectory for our recurring revenue base.

And I think that will start to really sort of resonate with folks and we believe investors as well. But your sensitivity and how we looked at it, yes, we have, but I just don't have it in front of us.

And if I could just follow up. With respect to the premium games that you're placing versus legacy, what's your experience or expectation around the duration of those games in terms of their sustainability or churn rate relative to what you already have there, new versus old?

So they're sort of like historical when you look at other companies. This is a new territory for us, David. And so, because it's a new territory for us, we have very limited experience. Because Big Red was the only product that we had as far as "premium", but it was very niche. It was a small piece of the business. What we know is this, is that, there's some Class 3 stats out there for other companies. And I think that we're exceeding those and we will be exceeding those with our performance, because in Class 3, our premium product has been very sticky, in particular, our curve premium product has been extremely sticky.

On top of that, going back to sort of hand what we're good at as well, sort of what's in our wheelhouse, is Class 2 premium. I can't emphasize enough. Extremely sticky. So those installs will be a multiple of what we see in Class 3. But coming back to sort of the overarching topic, we are confident. We continue to launch and test new premium content, and we have a good pipeline going forward of sort of like additional games, and we'll eventually have additional cabinets, additional options. We'll have many swim lanes to jump into there. So we're confident about our R&D abilities, but we're also on track to exceed sort of the industry averages. And then I said, just to reiterate Class 2 is super sticky.

At this time, there are no further questions. (Operator Instructions) There are no further questions. So thank you for your participation. You may now disconnect your lines.
