NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
($ in thousands)
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for interim
financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of
Regulation S-X. Accordingly they do not include all of the information and
footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of
management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments)
considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The preparation
of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
The results of operations for the interim periods shown in this report are not
necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. The
accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the audited financial statements incorporated by reference in
the Registrant's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31,
1998.
On June 12, 1998, a three-for-one reverse stock split was effected, as approved
by the Registrant's Shareholders at the Annual Meeting on June 1, 1998. All
share and per share data presented in the accompanying financial statements and
footnotes to the number of shares and earnings per share have been presented to
reflect the result of the three-for-one reverse stock split.
The Registrant's consolidated financial statements were prepared on a continuing
operations basis which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement
of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The Registrant
is largely dependent upon significant contracts for its revenue which typically
include a deposit upon contract signing and up to three months lead-time before
delivery of hardware begins. The Registrant has incurred significant net losses
for the last three years. During the nine months ended September 30, 1999,
revenues were $4,386 and the Registrant incurred a net loss of $2,826.
At September 30, 1999, the Registrant had negative working capital of $659.
Management recognizes that the Registrant must recover its investment in
existing contracts and generate additional contract sales to maintain its
current level of operations. As detailed in Note 4, Subsequent Events, on
October 5, 1999, the Registrant received $5,200 through the sale of authorized,
but unissued shares of Common Stock. In Management's opinion, this significantly
enhances the Registrant's ability to continue its operations and pursue future
contracts.

<PAGE> 7
INTERNATIONAL LOTTERY & TOTALIZATOR SYSTEMS, INC.
Historically, approximately $1,600 of the Registrant's annual revenues or 70% of
Registrant's annual service revenues have been derived from a terminal
maintenance agreement with an Australian lottery customer. In October 1998, the
Australian lottery customer awarded this contract to a competitor of the
Registrant. This maintenance agreement expires on December 31, 1999, although
the customer has indicated its expectation to seek an extension of an
additional six months.
In August 1999, the Registrant was awarded a contract by long-time customer AB
Trav och Galopp ("ATG") of Sweden for 815 additional DATAMARK Flipper(R)
terminals and related spare parts. The contract has a total value of more than
$4,000. Delivery of the terminals is expected to start at the beginning of the
second quarter of 2000 with revenue to be recognized upon shipment of the
terminals.
In September 1999, the Registrant announced the signing of two agreements with
Global Technologies, Ltd. ("GTL") under which the Registrant will supply an
on-line lottery system and facilities management services. Under the terms of
the purchase agreement, the Registrant will provide a complete DATATRAK(R)
on-line lottery system including central system hardware and software as well as
a minimum of 3,500 DATAMARK XClaim(R) terminals with a value of $12,300. In
addition, under a separate facilities management agreement, the Registrant will
provide a full range of services in connection with the lottery system,
including installation, training, computer operations, network management and
field maintenance. The facilities management contract has a base term of eight
years with options for extensions and a base value estimated to be a minimum of
$30,000. Manufacture of the lottery terminals will begin in the fourth quarter
of 1999. Initial delivery of the terminals is scheduled to start in the first
quarter of 2000 with the lottery targeted to launch operations shortly
thereafter.
Management anticipates that it will be successful in recovering its investment
in existing contracts and obtaining sufficient contracts to enable the
Registrant to continue normal operations; however, no assurances can be given
that the Registrant will be successful in realizing sufficient new contract
revenues. The Registrant's ability to continue its on-going operations on a
long-term basis is dependent upon its ability to recover its investment in
existing contracts, secure additional new contracts, install terminals on a
timely basis, and ultimately achieve a sustainable level of profit from
operations.

4. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On October 18, 1999, Form 8-K was filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
with regard to Changes in Control of Registrant.
Pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement dated as of September 8, 1999, on October
5, 1999, the Registrant consummated the sale of 6,933,817 shares of its Common
Stock to Berjaya Lottery Management (H.K.) Limited ("Berjaya"). The purchase
price for the shares was $0.75 per share for an aggregate purchase price of
$5,200,362.75. Prior to the purchase, Berjaya owned 2,311,500 shares, or
approximately 38.5%, of the Registrant's outstanding Common Stock. As a result
of the purchase, Berjaya now owns 9,245,317 shares or approximately 71.4%, of
the Registrant's outstanding Common Stock. Berjaya also continues to have three
representatives on the Registrant's nine member Board of Directors.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS ($ in thousands)
FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
The statements in this filing which are not historical facts are forward-looking
statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual
results to differ materially from those set forth or implied by forward-looking
statements. These risks and uncertainties include the absence of significant
contract backlog, the dependence on business from foreign customers sometimes in
politically unstable regions, political and governmental decisions as to the
establishment of lotteries and other wagering industries in which the
Registrant's products are marketed, fluctuations in quarter-by-quarter operating
results and other factors described in the Registrant's Annual Report on Form
10-K for the year ended December 31, 1998.

<PAGE> 9
INTERNATIONAL LOTTERY & TOTALIZATOR SYSTEMS, INC.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Product sales in the third quarter of fiscal 1999 decreased 83%, or $3,364,
versus the third quarter of fiscal 1998. This was due to fewer terminal
shipments in the third quarter of 1999 compared to 1998. Service revenues
increased 94%, or $269, over the quarter ended September 30, 1998. This
improvement was the result of a price increase on the Australian terminal
maintenance agreement and a more favorable exchange rate.
The gross profit on third quarter product sales was 9% in 1999, compared with
40% in 1998. The decreased gross profit percentage was a result of reduced
manufacturing efficiencies due to lower production volume compared to 1998. The
gross profit on third quarter service revenues was 23% in 1999 compared to a
loss of 9% in 1998. The increase in services gross profit was due to the price
increase described above.
Engineering, research and development expenses in the third quarter of 1999
increased 37% to $324 from $236 in the third quarter of 1998. The increase was
the result of efforts being directed to new projects. Selling, general and
administrative expenses decreased by 14%, or $179, for the third quarter of 1999
compared to the third quarter of 1998. This decrease was the result of a lower
level of staffing.
Product sales in the first nine months of fiscal 1999 decreased 65%, or $5,026,
from the same period in 1998. This was the result of fewer contracts and
shipments in 1999 as compared to 1998. Service revenues increased 24%, or $333,
to $1,713 from $1,380 which was primarily the result of the price increase on
the Australian maintenance agreement described above.
The gross profit on product sales was 18% for the nine months ended September
30, 1999 compared to 40% in 1998. The decrease in the 1999 gross profit
percentage was due to the low volume of contracts to absorb the fixed costs
compared to 1998 where sales of earlier model terminals which had been fully
reserved reduced production related expenses. The gross profit on services was
31% in 1999 compared to 18% for the same nine-month period in 1998. The increase
in services gross profit resulted from the price increases mentioned above.
Engineering, research and development expenses for the first nine months of 1999
decreased $283, or 23%, to $951 as compared to $1,234 for the same period in
1998. Costs were reduced from 1998 due to staff reductions and efforts directed
toward specific customer projects. Selling, general and administrative costs
decreased by $1,055, or 25%, for the nine-month period ended September 30, 1999
compared to the same period in 1998. This decrease resulted from the lower level
of staffing in 1999. Other income and expense, net, increased $139, or 90%. The
increase primarily related to the recovery of costs associated with the Arizona
Lottery bid effort and royalty receipts from a customer.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES ($ in thousands)
During the quarter ended September 30, 1999, the Registrant increased cash by
approximately $2,132, although the loss in the quarter was $1,144. The loss was
essentially funded out of working
9
<PAGE> 10
INTERNATIONAL LOTTERY & TOTALIZATOR SYSTEMS, INC.
capital. The Registrant's consolidated financial statements for the year ended
December 31, 1998 and the nine months ended September 30, 1999 have been
prepared on a continuing operations basis which contemplates the realization of
assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of
business. At September 30, 1999, the Registrant had negative working capital of
$659. Advance payments from customers increased by $762 with the receipt of a
deposit upon contract signing with ATG.
Management recognizes that the Registrant must generate additional contract
sales to maintain its current level of operations. Management anticipates that
it will be successful in obtaining sufficient contracts to enable the Registrant
to continue normal operations; however, no assurances can be given that the
Registrant will be successful in realizing sufficient new contract revenue. The
Registrant's ability to continue its on-going operations on a long-term basis is
dependent upon its ability to recover its investment in existing contracts,
secure additional new contracts and ultimately achieve a sustainable level of
profit from operations.
As of September 30, 1999 there were no material commitments for capital
expenditures.
FOREIGN EXCHANGE FLUCTUATION
The Registrant's reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. Historically, a majority
of the Registrant's sales have been denominated in U.S. dollars, with the
balance denominated in foreign currencies. These foreign currency sales have
been affected principally by the Registrant's international subsidiaries.
Changes from reporting period to reporting period in the exchange rates between
various foreign currencies and the U.S. dollar have had, and will in the future
continue to have, an impact on revenues and expenses reported by the Registrant,
and such effect may be material in any individual reporting period. As the
contracts are predominantly denominated in the functional currency of the
subsidiary performing under the contract, the Registrant has historically
incurred immaterial amounts of transaction gains or losses.
ASIA
Historically, a significant portion of the Registrant's revenues have been
derived from customers located in Asia. In the last 24 months the currencies of
the Asian countries in which the Registrant's customers are located have
declined significantly against the U.S. dollar. Although the Registrant
generally has been paid in U.S. dollars, this decline has effectively increased
the cost of the Registrant's products to its customers. The Registrant does not
believe that its on-going business has been negatively impacted by the Asian
currency exchange situation, however, one current customer has asked, and the
Registrant has agreed, to delay to a later undefined date the scheduled delivery
of terminals which will result in the delay of ILTS revenues and cash receipts
of approximately $1 million.
YEAR 2000
Management has initiated an enterprise-wide program to prepare the Registrant's
computer systems and applications for the Year 2000. The Registrant expects to
incur internal staff costs as well as other expenses related to infrastructure
and facilities enhancements necessary to prepare the systems
10
<PAGE> 11
INTERNATIONAL LOTTERY & TOTALIZATOR SYSTEMS, INC.
for the Year 2000.The Registrant has evaluated the effort required and believes
that the related costs will be immaterial and will be expensed as incurred. In
addition, the Registrant has reviewed the software systems and hardware it has
previously sold and determined they are Year 2000 compliant.
PART II OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
On November 3, 1995, Mr. James T. Walters, the former chairman and president of
the Registrant, who retired in 1994, filed a defamation and invasion of privacy
action in the San Diego county courts against the Registrant, its former
president, Frederick A. Brunn and other parties, relating to statements in a
magazine article. The other parties quickly settled with Mr. Walters. Mr.
Walters sought general and special damages of $9 million and punitive damages.
On November 20, 1998, the California Court of Appeal (Fourth District)
substantially reversed the summary judgement of the superior court awarded the
Registrant on November 1, 1996, and the appellate court returned the case to the
San Diego trial court on the defamation claim. The Registrant filed a petition
for review with the California Supreme Court, which affirmed the appellate court
decision. Trial had been set to begin January 14, 2000. In early October, all
parties reached a mediated settlement to this litigation which has been
submitted to the San Diego County Superior Court for approval. The effect on the
consolidated financial statements is expected to be immaterial with the majority
of the settlement covered by insurance.
ITEM 5. OTHER INFORMATION

other business opportunities.
