Item 8.01. Other Events.
On September 1, 2007, many of the Company’s casino customers in the United Kingdom (“UK”) chose to discontinue the provision of the Company’s credit card cash advance services as a result of the UK Gambling Act 2005 (the “Gambling Act”) becoming effective.
The Gambling Act may be interpreted as prohibiting the Company’s provision of credit card cash advance services in UK casinos. The Company interprets the Gambling Act differently and has taken the position, supported by advice from its UK gaming counsel, that the Gambling Act does not prohibit the continued provision of the Company’s credit card cash advance services. The Company and certain of its casino customers in the UK are consulting with the UK Gambling Commission regarding the interpretation of the Gambling Act. The UK Gambling Commission defers to the UK judiciary for the correct legal interpretation of the Gambling Act. After further discussions with the UK Gambling Commission, the Company may determine that seeking a judicial interpretation of the Gambling Act is appropriate.
Although the Company cannot predict if or when these UK casinos will resume the provision of the Company’s credit card cash advances services, the Company does not expect these casinos to do so unless and until the UK Gambling Commission or the UK judiciary takes a formal position that the provision of the Company’s credit card cash advance services does not violate the Gambling Act. Until such time as these casinos resume the provision of the Company’s credit card cash advance services, if at all, the Company will not generate any revenue from the provision of credit card cash advance services at these casinos. During the six months ended June 30, 2007, the Company generated an aggregate of $3.3 million in revenues through the provision of debit card and credit card cash advance services in casinos in the UK.
