CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Form 10-Q”) contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and the provisions of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Forward-looking statements give our current expectations or forecasts of future events. You can identify these statements by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. You can find many (but not all) of these statements by looking for words such as “approximates,” “believes,” “hopes,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “projects,” “intends,” “plans,” “would,” “should,” “could,” “may” or other similar expressions in this Form 10-Q. In particular, these include statements relating to future actions, future performance, anticipated expenses, or projected financial results. These forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties, including the risks outlined under “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 (the “Form 10-K”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and in this Form 10-Q, that could cause actual results to differ materially from our historical experience and our present expectations or projections. Moreover, we operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risks emerge from time to time and it is not possible for us to predict all risk factors, nor can we address the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause our actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements included in this document are based on information available to us on the date hereof, and we assume no obligation to update any such forward-looking statements.

We may not actually achieve the plans, intentions or expectations disclosed in our forward-looking statements, and you should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements. Actual results or events could differ materially from the plans, intentions and expectations disclosed in the forward-looking statements we make. Our forward-looking statements do not reflect the potential impact of any future acquisitions, mergers, or joint ventures we may make or collaborations or strategic partnerships we may enter into.

You should read this Form 10-Q and the documents that we have filed as exhibits to this Form 10-Q, as well as the Form 10-K and the other reports, schedules and documents we have filed with the SEC, completely and with the understanding that our actual future results may be materially different from what we expect. We do not assume any obligation to update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.

Unless the context requires otherwise, references in this report to “Gaming Technologies,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to Gaming Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and its subsidiary.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2021 and 2020

1. Organization and Basis of Presentation

Organization and Combination

Gaming Technologies, Inc. (formerly Dito, Inc.,) (“Gaming US”) was incorporated in the State of Delaware on July 23, 2019. Effective as of March 18, 2020, Gaming US completed a Share Exchange Agreement (the "Exchange Agreement") to acquire all of the outstanding ordinary shares of Gaming Technologies Limited, formerly Gaming UK Limited, (“Gaming UK”) that provided for each outstanding ordinary share of Gaming UK to be effectively converted into 25 shares of common stock of Gaming US. As a result, Gaming UK became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Gaming US in a recapitalization transaction (collectively, the “Company”). On December 21, 2020, the Company changed its name from Dito, Inc. to Gaming Technologies Inc.

Gaming UK was originally formed as Smart Tower Limited on November 3, 2017 in the United Kingdom for the purpose of software development. On June 29, 2018, Smart Tower Limited changed its name to NENX Gaming Limited and then to Gaming UK Limited on July 29, 2019 and to Gaming Technologies Limited on January 7, 2021.

Gaming US maintains its principal executive offices in Las Vegas, Nevada, United States. Gaming UK maintains its principal executive offices in London, England.

Business Operations

The Company is a mobile games developer, publisher, and operator with offices in London and Las Vegas. The Company intends to license its software platform to mobile gaming operators and developers to enable rapid development of new games. In addition, the Company operates an online gaming operation in Mexico through its web site vale.mx.

On November 13, 2020, we entered into an Agreement for the Provision of Online Gaming Management and Consulting Services (as subsequently amended) with Comercial de Juegos de la Frontera, S.A. de C.V., a Mexican company doing business as Big Bola, pursuant to which we provide to Big Bola consulting and management services related to their interactive online betting and gaming business in Mexico via the web site www.vale.mx, a regulated online casino and sports betting site. vale.mx operates under Big Bola’s existing license issued by the General Directorate of Games and Raffles of the Ministry of Interior (SEGOB). Big Bola is one of only 14 operators legally authorized to offer legal betting and online casino services in Mexico. vale.mx has more than 500 online premium casino games available, which can be enjoyed both on mobile or via desktop. Players can receive promotions and play live roulette and blackjack, or high-definition slots from leading software providers such as NetEnt, Microgaming, Pragmatic Play, Evolution and Matrix Studios. We are responsible for player acquisition, promotion and retention for vale.mx. We manage players’ accounts and are required to ensure that the balance in players’ accounts at all times satisfies the requirements under applicable law, and we pay out winnings to players from Big Bola’s account. While Big Bola bears liability to the players as provided by the permit, as between us and Big Bola we bear the costs of this obligation. Each party indemnifies the other against certain liabilities and claims. Under the terms of the agreement, we share 60% of gross gaming revenue generated from the platform, subject to certain minimum guaranteed monthly amounts of Big Bola’s participation in the remaining gross gaming revenues. This venture began operations in February 2021.

On May 19, 2021, we entered into a non-exclusive license agreement with Playboy Enterprises International, Inc. (“Playboy”) to use certain trademarks (including the rabbit head logo) and other intellectual property of Playboy on and in connection with the design, creation, promotion, marketing, advertisement, sales, operation, maintenance and distribution in India of real-money game mobile apps, such as rummy, poker, fantasy sports and other games of skill approved by Playboy. We will pay Playboy as a royalty a percentage of net gaming revenue. The term of the agreement is through the end of 2025, subject to early termination upon certain events of default, which include our failure to launch a Playboy-branded game in India by November 1, 2021, or to meet certain annual minimum net gaming revenue targets. The Playboy-branded game, https://www.playboyrummy.com/, was launched on November 1, 2021.

Going Concern

The Company's condensed consolidated financial statements have been presented on the basis that the Company is a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As reflected in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company has had no significant operating revenues to date, and has experienced recurring net losses from operations and negative operating cash flows. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company incurred a net loss of $(8,836,089) utilized cash in operating activities of $6,967,221, and had an accumulated deficit of $(16,802,282) as of September 30, 2021. The Company has financed its working capital requirements since inception through the sale of its equity securities and from borrowings.

At September 30, 2021, the Company had cash of $120,465. The Company estimates that a significant amount of capital will be necessary over a sustained period of time to advance the development of the Company's business to the point at which it can become commercially viable and self-sustaining. However, there can be no assurances that the Company will be successful in this regard.

As a result, management has concluded that there is substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern within one year of the date that the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are issued. In addition, the Company's independent registered public accounting firm, in their report on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020, has also expressed substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company's ability to raise additional funds and implement its business plan, and to ultimately achieve sustainable operating revenues and profitability. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

The development and expansion of the Company's business in 2021 and thereafter will be dependent on many factors, including the capital resources available to the Company. No assurances can be given that any future financing will be available or, if available, that it will be on terms that are satisfactory to the Company or adequate to fund the development and expansion of the Company's business to a level that is commercially viable and self-sustaining. There is also significant uncertainty as to the effect that the coronavirus pandemic may have on the availability, amount and type of financing in the future.

If cash resources are insufficient to satisfy the Company's ongoing cash requirements, the Company would be required to scale back or discontinue its operations, obtain funds, if available, although there can be no certainty, through strategic alliances that may require the Company to relinquish rights to its technology, or to discontinue its operations entirely.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Principles of Combination

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") and include the financial statements of Gaming US and its wholly-owned foreign subsidiary, Gaming UK. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

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 at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various assumptions that are believed to be reasonable in relation to the financial statements taken as a whole under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Management regularly evaluates the key factors and assumptions used to develop the estimates utilizing currently available information, changes in facts and circumstances, historical experience and reasonable assumptions. After such evaluations, if deemed appropriate, those estimates are adjusted accordingly. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates are expected to include those related to assumptions used in calculating accruals for potential liabilities, valuing equity instruments issued for services, and the realization of deferred tax assets.

Cash

The Company maintains its cash balances with financial institutions with high credit ratings. The Company has not experienced any losses to date resulting from this practice.

As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company's cash balances by currency consisted of the following:

Schedule of cash
	September 30, 2021		December 31, 2020

GBP	£	2,887	£	49,127
USD	$	116,577	$	1,879,166

Cash balances in British Pounds are maintained in the United Kingdom and cash balances in United States Dollars are maintained in the United States.

Concentration of Risk

The Company may periodically contract with consultants and vendors to provide services related to the Company's business development activities. Agreements for these services may be for a specific time period or for a specific project or task. The Company did not have any agreements at September 30, 2021 or December 31, 2020.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC Topic 606, Revenue From Contracts With Customers. ASC Topic 606 requires companies to recognize revenue in a manner that depicts the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. In addition, the standard requires disclosures of the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. Revenue is recognized based on the following five step model:

Identification of the contract with a customer

Identification of the performance obligations in the contract

Determination of the transaction price

Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract

Recognition of revenue when, or as, the Company satisfies a performance obligation

The Company operates an online betting platform allowing users to place wagers on casino games. Each wager placed by users create a single performance obligation for the Company to administer each event wagered. Net gaming revenue is the aggregate of gaming wins and losses based on results of each event that customers wager bets on. Gross gaming revenue is split with our partners, whose share of gross gaming revenue is recorded as a reduction to net gaming revenue.

Cost of Revenue

Cost of revenue consists primarily of variable costs related to our contract with Big Bola. These include mainly (i) payment processing fees and chargebacks, (ii) product taxes, (iii) technology costs, (iv) revenue share / market access arrangements, and (v) feed / provider services. The Company incurs payment processing fees on user deposits, withdrawals and deposit reversals from payment processors (“chargebacks”). Chargebacks have not been material to date. Cost of revenue also includes expenses related to the distribution of our services, amortization of intangible assets and compensation of revenue associated personnel.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company issues common stock and intends to issue stock options to officers, directors and consultants for services rendered. Options will vest and expire according to terms established at the issuance date of each grant. Stock grants, which are generally time vested, will be measured at the grant date fair value and charged to operations ratably over the vesting period.

The fair value of stock options granted as stock-based compensation will be determined utilizing the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, and can be affected by several variables, the most significant of which are the life of the equity award, the exercise price of the stock option as compared to the fair market value of the common stock on the grant date, and the estimated volatility of the common stock. Estimated volatility will be based on the historical volatility of the Company's common stock over an appropriate calculation period, or, if not available, by reference to the volatility of a representative sample of comparable public companies. The risk-free interest rate will be based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. The fair market value of the common stock will be determined by reference to the quoted market price of the Company's common stock on the grant date, or, if not available, by reference to an appropriate alternative valuation methodology.

The Company will recognize the fair value of stock-based compensation awards in general and administrative costs or in software development costs, as appropriate, in the Company's condensed consolidated statements of operations. The Company will issue new shares of common stock to satisfy stock option exercises.

As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company did not have any outstanding stock options.

Comprehensive Income (Loss)

Comprehensive income or loss is defined as the change in equity during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances from non-owner sources. Components of comprehensive income or loss, including net income or loss, unrealized gains or losses on available-for-sale securities, unrealized gains or losses on other financial investments, unrealized gains or losses on pension and retirement benefit plans, and foreign currency translation adjustments, are reported in the financial statements in the period in which they are recognized. Net income (loss) and other comprehensive income (loss) are reported net of any related tax effect to arrive at comprehensive income (loss). The Company's comprehensive income (loss) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 consists of foreign currency translation adjustments.

Earnings (Loss) Per Share

The Company's computation of earnings (loss) per share ("EPS") includes basic and diluted EPS. Basic EPS is measured as the income (loss) attributable to common stockholders divided by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS is similar to basic EPS but presents the dilutive effect on a per share basis of potential common shares (e.g., convertible notes payable, convertible preferred stock, warrants and stock options) as if they had been converted at the beginning of the periods presented, or issuance date, if later. Potential common shares that have an anti-dilutive effect (i.e., those that increase income per share or decrease loss per share) are excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS.

Loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the respective periods. At September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company excluded warrants to acquire 274,175 shares of common stock from its calculation of loss per share as their effect would be antidilutive. Basic and diluted loss per common share is the same for all periods presented because the aforementioned warrants were antidilutive.

The Company has adopted ASU 2017-11, Earnings per share (Topic 260), provided that when determining whether certain financial instruments should be classified as liability or equity instruments, a down round feature no longer precludes equity classification when assessing whether the instrument is indexed to an entity’s own stock.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The authoritative guidance with respect to fair value established a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three levels and requires that assets and liabilities carried at fair value be classified and disclosed in one of three categories, as presented below. Disclosure as to transfers in and out of Levels 1 and 2, and activity in Level 3 fair value measurements, is also required.

Level 1. Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets for an identical asset or liability that the Company has the ability to access as of the measurement date. Financial assets and liabilities utilizing Level 1 inputs include active-exchange traded securities and exchange-based derivatives.

Level 2. Inputs, other than quoted prices included within Level 1, which are directly observable for the asset or liability or indirectly observable through corroboration with observable market data. Financial assets and liabilities utilizing Level 2 inputs include fixed income securities, non-exchange-based derivatives, mutual funds, and fair-value hedges.

Level 3. Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data for the asset or liability which requires the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions. Financial assets and liabilities utilizing Level 3 inputs include infrequently-traded non-exchange-based derivatives and commingled investment funds and are measured using present value pricing models.

The Company will determine the level in the fair value hierarchy within which each fair value measurement falls in its entirety, based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. In determining the appropriate levels, the Company will perform an analysis of the assets and liabilities at each reporting period end.

The carrying value of financial instruments (consisting of cash and accounts payable and accrued expenses) is considered to be representative of their respective fair values due to the short-term nature of those instruments.

Foreign Currency

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in United States dollars ("USD"). The functional currency of Gaming UK, the Company's foreign subsidiary, is the British Pound (“GBP”), the local currency in the United Kingdom. Accordingly, assets and liabilities of the foreign subsidiary are translated at the current exchange rate at the end of the period, and revenues and expenses are translated at average exchange rates during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and the year ended December 31, 2020. The resulting translation adjustments are recorded as a component of shareholders' equity (deficiency). Gains and losses from foreign currency transactions are included in net income (loss).

Translation of amounts from the local currencies of the foreign subsidiary, Gaming UK, into USD has been made at the following exchange rates for the respective periods:

Foreign currency exchange rates table
	As of and for the
	Nine months ended September 30, 2021		Year ended December 31, 2020

Period-end GBP to USD1.00 exchange rate		1.3466		1.3652
Period-average GBP to USD1.00 exchange rate		1.3844		1.2825

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments ("ASU 2016-13"). ASU 2016-13 significantly changes how entities measure credit losses for most financial assets, including accounts and notes receivables. ASU 2016-13 will replace the current "incurred loss" approach with an “expected loss” model, under which companies will recognize allowances based on expected rather than incurred losses. Entities will apply the provisions of ASU 2016-13 as a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which ASU 2016-13 is effective. As small business filer, ASU 2016-13 will be effective for the Company for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2022. Management is currently in the process of assessing the impact of adopting ASU-2016-13 on the Company's financial statements and related disclosures.

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt — Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity (“ASU 2020-06). ASU 2020-06 simplifies the accounting for convertible debt by eliminating the beneficial conversion and cash conversion accounting models. Upon adoption of ASU 2020-06, convertible debt proceeds, unless issued with a substantial premium or an embedded conversion feature that is not clearly and closely related to the host contract, will no longer be allocated between debt and equity components. This modification will reduce the issue discount and result in less non-cash interest expense in financial statements. ASU 2020-06 also updates the earnings per share calculation and requires entities to assume share settlement when the convertible debt can be settled in cash or shares. ASU 2020-06 will be effective January 1, 2024, and a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings is required upon adoption. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than January 1, 2021, including interim periods within that year. The Company adopted ASU 2020-06 effective January 1, 2021. The adoption of ASU 2020-06 did not have any impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statement presentation or disclosures.

Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB, including its Emerging Issues Task Force, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, and the Securities and Exchange Commission did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company's present or future condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Playboy License Agreement

Legal Contingencies

The Company may be subject to legal proceedings from time to time as part of its business activities. As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company was not subject to any threatened or pending legal actions or claims.

Impact of COVID-19 on the Company

The global outbreak of COVID-19 has led to severe disruptions in general economic activities, as businesses and governments have taken broad actions to mitigate this public health crisis. Although the Company has not experienced any significant disruption to its business to date, these conditions could significantly negatively impact the Company's business in the future.

The extent to which the COVID-19 outbreak ultimately impacts the Company's business, future revenues, results of operations and financial condition will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including, but not limited to, the duration and spread of the outbreak, its severity and longevity, the actions to curtail the virus and treat its impact (including an effective vaccine), and how quickly and to what extent normal economic and operating conditions can resume. Even after the COVID-19 outbreak has subsided, the Company may be at risk of experiencing a significant impact to its business as a result of the global economic impact, including any economic downturn or recession that has occurred or may occur in the future.

Currently, capital markets have been disrupted by the crisis, as a result of which the availability, amount and type of financing available to the Company in the near future is uncertain and cannot be assured and is largely dependent upon evolving market conditions and other factors.

The Company intends to continue to monitor the situation and may adjust its current business plans as more information and guidance become available.

9. Subsequent Events

On October 20, 2021, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Gaming Technologies, Inc. (the “Company,” “we,” “us,” “our”) approved and ratified an amendment (“Amendment No. 3”), effective August 31, 2021, to the Company’s Agreement for the Provision of Online Gaming Management and Consulting Services (as subsequently amended), dated November 13, 2020, with Comercial de Juegos de la Frontera, S.A. de C.V., a Mexican company doing business as Big Bola, pursuant to which the Company provides to Big Bola consulting and management services related to their interactive online betting and gaming business in Mexico via the web site www.vale.mx, a regulated online casino and sports betting site. This Amendment No.3 increases our share of gross gaming revenue generated from the platform from 60% to 75%, subject to certain minimum guaranteed monthly amounts of Big Bola’s participation in the remaining gross gaming revenues.

On October 20, 2021, Steven M. Plumb, CPA, appointed as the Company’s chief financial officer through a contract (the “Clear Agreement”) with Mr. Plumb’s entity, Clear Financial Solutions (“Clear”), pursuant to which Clear is paid $10,000 per month for Mr. Plumb’s service. In addition, Mr. Plumb and Clear’s other staff provide accounting and bookkeeping services to the Company, in consideration for which Clear is paid $2,000 per month, plus hourly fees for annual and quarterly report preparation. The contract expires on August 16, 2022, and unless canceled by either party by written notice 60 days prior to expiration, will automatically renew for successive twelve-month periods. Moreover, Mr. Plumb was awarded a stock grant for 30,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, vesting six months from date of grant. The fair market value of the stock grant on the date of grant was $34,778.

In October 2021, the Company issued restricted stock grants to various consultants for services performed for the Company totaling 197,200 shares. The shares vest over six months and had a fair market value of $560,500 on the date of grant.

On October 20, 2021, our Board approved resolutions (i) authorizing a reverse stock split of the outstanding shares of our common stock in the range from 1-for-2 to 1-for-8, and providing authority to our Board to determine whether to effect a reverse stock split and, if so to select the ratio of the reverse stock split in their discretion, and (ii) to increase the number of our authorized shares of common stock from 45,000,000 to 400,000,000. The Company plans to submit these resolutions to its stockholders for approval by written consent. The consent of stockholders holding a majority of the Company’s outstanding voting shares will be required for approval. The Company anticipates filing a certificate of amendment to affect a reverse stock split, if any, and the authorized share increase with the Secretary of State of Delaware prior to the listing of its common stock and warrants on the Nasdaq Capital Market and such actions being effective on, or just before, the date the common stock is listed to the Nasdaq Capital Market.

Overview

The Company is a software developer specializing in online gaming. It is headquartered in Las Vegas with offices in London and Mexico City.

The Company’s activities are subject to significant risks and uncertainties, including the need for additional capital, as described below. The Company commenced revenue-generating operations in February 2021, does not have positive cash flows from operations, and is dependent on periodic infusions of equity capital to fund its operating requirements.

Background and Basis of Presentation

Gaming Technologies, Inc. was incorporated in the State of Delaware on July 23, 2019 under the name Dito, Inc. and on December 21, 2020 amended its name to Gaming Technologies, Inc. Effective as of March 18, 2020, Gaming Technologies, Inc. completed a Share Exchange Agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”) to acquire all of the outstanding ordinary shares of Gaming Technologies UK that provided for each outstanding ordinary share of Gaming Technologies UK to be effectively converted into 25 shares of common stock of Gaming Technologies, Inc., As a result, Gaming Technologies UK became our wholly-owned subsidiary in a recapitalization transaction, as described below. Gaming Technologies UK was originally formed on November 3, 2017, in the United Kingdom as Dito UK Limited for the purpose of software development.

For financial reporting purposes, the Exchange Agreement was accounted for as a combination of entities under common control (the “Combination”), as Gaming Technologies, Inc. was formed by Gaming Technologies UK, with the objective of Gaming Technologies UK becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of Gaming Technologies, Inc., and the resultant parent company being domiciled in the United States. As a result of the Combination, the former stockholders of Gaming Technologies UK became the controlling shareholders of Dito, Inc., and the Gaming Technologies UK management and board members became the management and board members of Gaming Technologies, Inc.

Our Board of Directors has approved a potential reverse split of our common stock in a range between 1-for-2 and 1-for-8, subject to shareholder approval. The Board of Directors will make the final determination whether to effect the reverse split, and if so determined, of the actual ratio within that range, by our board of directors. The share and per share information in this prospectus does not reflect any reverse stock split. Our Board of Directors has also approved resolutions, subject to shareholder approval, to increase the number of our authorized shares of common stock from 45,000,000 to 400,000,000. There can be no assurance shareholder approval for either of these actions will be obtained.

Going Concern

The Company's condensed consolidated financial statements have been presented on the basis that the Company is a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As reflected in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company has had no significant operating revenues to date, and has experienced recurring net losses from operations and negative operating cash flows. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company incurred a net loss of $(8,836,089), utilized cash in operating activities of $6,967,221, and had an accumulated deficit of $(16,802,282) as of September 30, 2021. The Company has financed its working capital requirements since inception through the sale of its equity securities and from borrowings.

The development and expansion of the Company's business in 2021 and thereafter will be dependent on many factors, including the capital resources available to the Company. No assurances can be given that any future financing will be available or, if available, that it will be on terms that are satisfactory to the Company or adequate to fund the development and expansion of the Company's business to a level that is commercially viable and self-sustaining. There is also significant uncertainty as to the affect that the coronavirus pandemic may have on the availability, amount and type of financing in the future.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The following discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based upon the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 presented elsewhere in this Form 10-Q, which have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the US (“GAAP”). Certain accounting policies and estimates are particularly important to the understanding of the Company’s financial position and results of operations and require the application of significant judgment by management or can be materially affected by changes from period to period in economic factors or conditions that are outside of the Company’s control. As a result, these issues are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty. In applying these policies, management uses its judgment to determine the appropriate assumptions to be used in the determination of certain estimates. Those estimates are based on the Company’s historical operations, the future business plans and the projected financial results, the terms of existing contracts, trends in the industry, and information available from other outside sources. For a more complete description of the Company’s significant accounting policies, see Note 2 to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Revenue Recognition

Identification of the contract with a customer

Identification of the performance obligations in the contract

Determination of the transaction price

Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract

Recognition of revenue when, or as, the Company satisfies a performance obligation

Performance Obligations

The Company operates an online betting platform allowing users to place wagers on casino and other games. Each wager placed by users create a single performance obligation for the Company to administer each event wagered. Net gaming revenue is the aggregate of gaming wins and losses based on results of each event that customers wager bets on. Gross gaming revenue is split with our partners, whose share of gross gaming revenue is recorded as a reduction to net gaming revenue.

Stock-Based Compensation

The fair value of stock options granted as stock-based compensation will be determined utilizing the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, and can be affected by several variables, the most significant of which are the life of the equity award, the exercise price of the stock option as compared to the fair market value of the common stock on the grant date, and the estimated volatility of the common stock. Estimated volatility will be based on the historical volatility of the Company’s common stock over an appropriate calculation period, or, if not available, by reference to the volatility of a representative sample of comparable public companies. The risk-free interest rate will be based on the US Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. The fair market value of the common stock will be determined by reference to the quoted market price of the Company’s common stock on the grant date, or, if not available, by reference to an appropriate alternative valuation methodology.

The Company will recognize the fair value of stock-based compensation awards in general and administrative costs or in software development costs, as appropriate, in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. The Company will issue new shares of common stock to satisfy stock option exercises.

As of September 30, 2021, the Company did not have any outstanding stock options.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

See Note 2 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for discussion of Recent Accounting Policies.

Plan of Operation

We are a software company specializing in online gaming. Our cloud-based Player Account Management (PAM) platform enables us to rapidly deploy branded online gambling presences for land-based casinos, consumer brands and media companies. Depending on each geographical region and the restrictions/requirements of its gambling-related legislation, we form "access deals" that offer a faster and easier route to market by enabling us to operate under a gambling license already held by a local partner.

We integrate best-in-class third-party games to provide the ultimate gaming platform, and we help our international partners in regulated markets leverage online gambling presences while putting players first. We also form business partnerships with established brands such as Playboy to launch new game content.

On November 13, 2020, we entered into an “access deal” Agreement for the Provision of Online Gaming Management and Consulting Services (as subsequently amended) with Comercial de Juegos de la Frontera, S.A. de C.V., a Mexican company doing business as Big Bola, pursuant to which we provide to Big Bola consulting and management services related to their interactive online betting and gaming business in Mexico via the web site www.vale.mx, a regulated online casino and sports betting site. vale.mx operates under Big Bola’s existing license issued by the General Directorate of Games and Raffles of the Ministry of Interior (SEGOB). Big Bola is one of only 14 operators legally authorized to offer legal betting and online casino services in Mexico. vale.mx has more than 500 online premium casino games available, which can be enjoyed both on mobile or via desktop. Players can receive promotions and play live roulette and blackjack, or high-definition slots from leading software providers such as NetEnt, Microgaming, Pragmatic Play, Evolution and Matrix Studios. We are responsible for player acquisition, promotion and retention for vale.mx. We manage players’ accounts and are required to ensure that the balance in players’ accounts at all times satisfies the requirements under applicable law, and we pay out winnings to players from Big Bola’s account. While Big Bola bears liability to the players as provided by the permit, as between us and Big Bola we bear the costs of this obligation. Each party indemnifies the other against certain liabilities and claims. Under the terms of the agreement, as amended, we share 75% of gross gaming revenue generated from the platform, subject to certain minimum guaranteed monthly amounts of Big Bola’s participation in the remaining gross gaming revenues. In February 2021, vale.mx began operations. During the nine months ending September 30, 2021, the Company recognized $89,987 of net revenue.

On August 18, 2021, we entered into a software partnership with Ortiz Gaming to supply us with online Bingo gaming content. The deal initially covers Mexico, and we plan to expand to other parts of Latin and South America.

Key Performance Indicators

Registered Players

A registered player is a customer who has registered on our app or website and met the Know Your Customer customer identification requirements, which include identity and address verification (“KYC requirements”). During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 we registered 37,255 and 100,590 players, for a total of 100,594. On October 4, 2021, we announced we had reached 100,000 registrations.

Monthly Unique Payers

Monthly Unique Payers (“MUPs”). MUPs is the average number of unique paid users (“unique payers”) that use our online games on a monthly basis.

MUPs is a key indicator of the scale of our user base and awareness of our brand, and/or the third-party brands we partner with. We believe that year-over-year MUPs will also generally be indicative of the long-term revenue growth potential of the online gaming brands we hold directly and/or those we establish around our B2B brand partners, although MUPs in individual periods may be less indicative of our longer-term expectations. We expect the number of MUPs to grow as we attract, retain and re-engage users in new and existing jurisdictions and expand the online gambling brands we operate to appeal to a wider audience.

We define MUPs as the average number of unique payers per month who had a paid engagement (e.g., participated in a casino game) across one or more of our product offerings via our platform technology. For reported periods longer than one month, we average the MUPs for the months in the reported period.

A “unique paid user” or “unique payer” is any person who had one or more paid engagements via our B2C technology during the period (i.e., a user that participates in a paid engagement with one of our B2C product offerings counts as a single unique paid user or unique payer for the period). We exclude users who have made a deposit but have not yet had a paid engagement. Unique payers or unique paid users include users who have participated in a paid engagement with promotional incentives, which are fungible with other funds deposited in their wallets on our technology. The number of these users included in MUPs has not been material to date and a substantial majority of such users are repeat users who have had paid engagements both prior to and after receiving incentives.

During the three and nine months ending September 30, 2021, our MUPs were 1,168 and 2,824, respectively. The increase was due to increased marketing efforts on behalf of the Company and new games that have been introduced.

Average Revenue per MUP (“ARPMUP”). ARPMUP is the average online casino revenue per MUP, and this key metric represents our ability to drive usage and monetization of our online casino offering.

During the nine months ending September 30, 2021, our ARPMUP was $31.87, compared to an ARPMUP of $15.34 during the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase of $39.94 was due to increased marketing efforts on behalf of the Company and new games that have been introduced.

We define and calculate ARPMUP as the average monthly online casino revenue for a reporting period, divided by MUPs (i.e., the average number of unique payers) for the same period.

Handle

Handle is a casino or sports betting term referring to the total amount of money bet. We will report the handle or cash wagering which is the total amount of money bet excluding all bonuses.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, our handle was $2,161,965 and $4,413,998, respectively.

Hold

Hold is essentially the amount of cash that our platform instances keep after paying out winning bets. The industry also refers to hold as win or revenue. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, our hold was $88,888 and $197,179, respectively.

Online games are characterized by an element of chance. Our revenue is impacted by variations in the hold percentage (the ratio of net win to total amount wagered) on bets placed on, or the actual outcome of, games or events on which users bet. Although our product offerings generally perform within a defined statistical range of outcomes, actual outcomes may vary for any given period, and a single large bet can have a sizeable impact on our short-term financial performance. Our hold is also affected by factors that are beyond our control, such as a user’s skill, experience and behavior, the mix of games played, the financial resources of users and the volume of bets placed. As a result of variability in these factors, actual hold rates on our products may differ from the theoretical win rates we have estimated and could result in the winnings of our gaming users exceeding those anticipated. We seek to mitigate these risks through data science and analytics and rules built into our technology, as well as active management of our amounts at risk at a point in time, but may not always be able to do so successfully, particularly over short periods, which can result in financial losses as well as revenue volatility.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, our hold percentage was 4.11% and 4.47%, respectively.

Results of Operations

In February 2021, our online casino, vale.mx, began operations. However, as of September 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company did not have any positive cash flows from operations and was dependent on its ability to raise equity capital to fund its operating requirements.

Operating Expenses

The Company generally recognizes operating costs and expenses as they are incurred in two general categories, software development costs and expenses, and general and administrative costs and expenses. The Company’s operating costs and expenses also include non-cash components related to depreciation and amortization of property and equipment, and intellectual property, which are allocated, as appropriate, to software development costs and expenses and general and administrative costs and expenses.

Software development costs and expenses consist primarily of fees paid to consultants and amortization of intellectual property. Management expects software costs and expenses to increase in the future as the Company increases its efforts to develop technology for potential future products based on its technology and research.

General and administrative costs and expenses consist of fees for directors and officers, and their affiliates, as well as legal and other professional fees, depreciation and amortization of property and equipment, lease and rent expense, and other general corporate expenses. Management expects general and administrative costs and expenses to increase in future periods as the Company adds personnel and incurs additional costs related to its operation as a public company, including higher legal, accounting, insurance, compliance, compensation and other costs.

Liquidity and Capital Resources – September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020

The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements have been presented on the basis that the Company is a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has had no operating revenues to date, and has experienced recurring net losses from operations and negative operating cash flows. The Company has financed its working capital requirements since inception through the sale of its equity securities and from borrowings.

As a result, management has concluded that there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year of the date that the condensed consolidated financial statements are being issued. In addition, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, in their report on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020, has also expressed substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern (see “—Going Concern”).

The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company’s ability to raise additional funds and implement its business plan, and to ultimately achieve sustainable operating revenues and profitability. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

As of September 30, 2021, the Company had a working capital of $(421,886), as compared to working capital of $1,586,238 as of December 31, 2020, reflecting a decrease in working capital of $2,008,124 for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The decrease in working capital during the nine months ended September 30, 2021, was primarily the result of marketing costs incurred during the period.

As of September 30, 2021, the Company had cash of $120,465, reflecting the remaining cash derived from the proceeds of $5,300,648 from the sale of Common Stock in the nine months ended September 30, 2021. As of December 31, 2020, the Company had cash of $1,946,232, reflecting cash of $2,628,000 from the sale of Common Stock in December 2020. Management believes that the cash on hand will be sufficient to fund the Company’s operations for the next three months, after which we will need to raise additional funding. Our ability to raise additional funds through equity or debt financings or other sources may depend on the commercial success of our software and financial, economic and market conditions and other factors, some of which are beyond our control. No assurance can be given that we will be successful in raising the required capital at reasonable cost and at the required times, or at all.

In February 2021, the Company began earning revenues, however they are not a level sufficient to support the Company’s operations. The Company estimates that its working capital requirements for the next twelve months to be approximately $4,800,000, or $400,000 per month.

The working capital budget will enable the Company to support the existing monthly operating costs of the Company of approximately $400,000 per month, consisting of monthly (and quarterly) accounting and US securities filing costs estimated at $20,000 per month and a sales and marketing budget of $250,000 per month to engage in a sales and marketing campaign to sell licenses of the Company’s software platform to third parties and attach customers to its online casino based in Mexico.

During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company completed a series of private placements of its common stock, with proceeds totaling $2,628,000. See Item 1 (“Business—The Private Placements and Share Exchange”) in the Form 10-K. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021 the Company completed a series of private placements of its common stock, with proceeds totaling $5,300,648. In addition, the Company is planning additional capital raises over the remainder of the calendar year to fund operations as it ramps up revenues. The Company believes that the resulting working capital will be sufficient to fund the Company’s operations for the next three months.

Since acquiring the software platform, the Company has successfully carried out development to port the software platform from its former physical server dependencies and reliance on third parties for hardware management and deployment to a cloud-based platform where deployment is automated through the use of infrastructure as code. To make the Company’s software platform work for business-to-business (B2B) licensees, the Company has modified the software to enable remote management by system administrators of prospective licensees. Previously, the platform was business to consumer (B2C) focused, with outsourced management and deployment. As a result of this software development, the Company expects to be able to monetize its software platform by selling licenses to third parties.

The Company’s ability to raise additional funds through equity or debt financings or other sources may depend on the stage of development of the software platform, the commercial success of the software, and financial, economic and market conditions and other factors, some of which are beyond the Company’s control. No assurance can be given that the Company will be successful in raising the required capital at reasonable cost and at the required times, or at all. Further equity financings may have a dilutive effect on shareholders and any debt financing, if available, may require restrictions to be placed on the Company’s future financing and operating activities. If the Company requires additional capital and is unsuccessful in raising that capital, the Company may not be able to continue the development of its software platform and continue to advance its growth initiatives, or ultimately to be able to continue its business operations, which could adversely impact the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

Trends, Events and Uncertainties

Development of new software is, by its nature, unpredictable. Although the Company will undertake development efforts with commercially reasonable diligence, there can be no assurance that the Company’s efforts to raise funds in the future will be sufficient to enable the Company to develop its technology to the extent needed to create future revenues to sustain operations as contemplated herein.

There can be no assurances that the Company’s technology will be adopted or that the Company will ever achieve sustainable revenues sufficient to support its operations. Even if the Company is able to generate revenues, there can be no assurances that the Company will be able to achieve profitability or positive operating cash flows. There can be no assurances that the Company will be able to secure additional financing on acceptable terms or at all. If cash resources are insufficient to satisfy the Company’s ongoing cash requirements, the Company would be required to scale back or discontinue its software development programs, or obtain funds, if available (although there can be no certainty), through strategic alliances that may require the Company to relinquish rights to certain of its potential products, or to curtail or discontinue its operations entirely.

Other than as discussed above and elsewhere in this Form 10-Q, the Company is not currently aware of any trends, events or uncertainties that are likely to have a material effect on the Company’s financial condition in the near term, although it is possible that new trends or events may develop in the future that could have a material effect on the Company’s financial condition.

Impact of COVID-19 on the Company

The extent to which the COVID-19 outbreak ultimately impacts the Company’s business, future revenues, results of operations and financial condition will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including, but not limited to, the duration and spread of the outbreak, its severity and longevity, the actions to curtail the virus and treat its impact (including an effective vaccine), and how quickly and to what extent normal economic and operating conditions can resume. Even after the COVID-19 outbreak has subsided, the Company may be at risk of experiencing a significant impact to its business as a result of the global economic impact, including any economic downturn or recession that has occurred or may occur in the future.

The Company intends to continue to monitor the situation and may adjust its current business plans as more information and guidance become available.
