SUPPLEMENT TO DEFINITIVE PROXY STATEMENT

As previously disclosed, on July 18, 2024, Galaxy Gaming, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“Galaxy” or the “Company”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Evolution Malta Holding Limited, a company registered in Malta (“Parent”), and Galaga Merger Sub, Inc., a Nevada corporation and direct wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”), pursuant to which, and on the terms and subject to the conditions thereof, Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company, with the Company surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (the “Merger”).

On September 26, 2024, the Company filed a definitive proxy statement on Schedule 14A (the “Definitive Proxy Statement”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for the solicitation of proxies in connection with the special meeting of the Company’s stockholders to be held on November 12, 2024, for purposes of voting, among other things, on a proposal to adopt the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Merger.

This supplemental information should be read in conjunction with the Definitive Proxy Statement, including the balance of the sections entitled “Background of the Merger,” “Summary of Financial Analysis of Macquarie Capital,” “Certain Unaudited Prospective Financial Information” and “Interests of the Directors and Executive Officers of Galaxy in the Merger”. Defined terms used but not defined in the below disclosures have the meanings set forth in the Definitive Proxy Statement.

Litigation Related to the Merger

Beginning on September 11, 2024, six purported stockholders of Galaxy have sent demand letters to the Company and two purported stockholders have sent an unfiled complaint. As of November 1, 2024, two purported stockholders of Galaxy have filed complaints in New York state court. The demand letters and complaints allege that the Definitive Proxy Statement is materially incomplete and misleading because it omitted certain information related to the Merger, including but not limited to information about the Company’s financial projections and analyses performed by Galaxy’s financial advisor, Macquarie Capital (USA) Inc. (“Macquarie Capital”).

The Company believes that the allegations in the demands are without merit and supplemental disclosures are not required or necessary under applicable laws. However, in order to avoid the risk that the demands delay or otherwise adversely affect the Merger, and to minimize costs, risk and uncertainties inherent in litigation, and without admitting any liability or wrongdoing, Galaxy is supplementing the Definitive Proxy Statement as described in this Current Report on Form 8-K. Nothing in this Current Report on Form 8-K shall be deemed an admission of the legal necessity or materiality under applicable laws of any of the disclosures set forth herein. To the contrary, Galaxy specifically denies all allegations in the complaints and demands that any additional disclosure was or is warranted.

It is possible that additional, similar demand letters or complaints may be received or filed or any stockholder actions may be amended. The Company does not intend to announce the receipt or filing of each additional, similar demand letter, complaint or any amended complaint.

***

The section of the Definitive Proxy Statement entitled “Background of the Merger” is amended and supplemented as follows:

On page 39, the first paragraph is amended and restated as follows (new language underlined):

“On February 21, 2024, Mr. Carlesund sent Mr. Lipparelli a written non-binding indication of interest to acquire all of the outstanding equity interests of Galaxy in an all-cash transaction to be priced at a premium to Galaxy’s share price that would be customary for transactions of this nature and consistent with market practice (the “February 21 Letter”). The February 21 Letter did not contain specific pricing terms and did not contain any offer of post-transaction employment for Galaxy’s executive officers or directors.”

On page 39, the fifth paragraph is amended and restated as follows (new language underlined):

“On March 24, 2024, Evolution submitted a revised written non-binding indication of interest to acquire all of the outstanding equity interests of Galaxy in an all-cash transaction at a proposed purchase price of $2.19 per share (the “March 24 Offer”). The purchase price reflected in the March 24 Offer implied a 38% premium to the Galaxy closing stock price as of March 22, the last trading day prior to the March 24 Offer. The March 24 Offer did not contain any offer of post-transaction employment for Galaxy’s executive officers or directors.”

On page 39, the seventh paragraph is amended and restated as follows (new language underlined):

“On April 19, 2024, Evolution submitted a revised offer to acquire all of the outstanding equity interests of Galaxy in an all-cash transaction at a proposed purchase price of $2.62 per share (the “April 19 Offer”). The purchase price reflected in the April 19 Offer implied a 100% premium to the Galaxy closing stock price as of April 18, 2024, the last trading day prior to the April 19 Offer. The April 19 Offer did not contain any offer of post-transaction employment for Galaxy’s executive officers or directors.”

On page 41, the first paragraph is amended and restated as follows (new language underlined):

“Later in the day on May 30, 2024, Evolution submitted a revised non-binding indication of interest with a proposed price per share of $3.20 (the “May 30 Offer”). The May 30 Offer represented a 100% premium to the Galaxy closing stock price as of May 29, the last trading day prior to the May 30 Offer. The May 30 Offer did not contain any offer of post-transaction employment for Galaxy’s executive officers or directors.”

On page 42, the fourth paragraph is amended and restated as follows (new language underlined):

“On July 15, 2024, Galaxy provided a five-year forecast (the “Galaxy Projections”)⁽¹⁾ to representatives of Macquarie, which was made available to Evolution and its advisors via the online data room. Further, members of Galaxy’s management reviewed the Galaxy Projections and directed Macquarie to use the Galaxy Projections for purposes of providing financial analyses in connection with the Board’s evaluation of the potential transaction with Evolution, including preparing its opinion referenced below.

The section of the Definitive Proxy Statement entitled “Summary of Financial Analysis of Macquarie Capital” is amended and supplemented as follows:

On page 52, under the subheading “Selected Public Companies Trading Analysis,” the following disclosure supplements and restates the table summarizing the selected companies considered by Macquarie Capital for its analysis of Galaxy by adding (i) columns for the implied transaction value as a multiple of (x) LTM Adj. EBITDA and (y) LTM Adj. EBITDA minus CapEx and (ii) rows to present the calculated means and medians for the selected companies (new language underlined):

“The selected companies (and their corresponding multiples) considered by Macquarie Capital for its analysis of Galaxy were:

On page 52, under the subheading “Selected Precedent Transactions Analysis,” the following disclosure supplements and restates the table summarizing the selected transactions considered by Macquarie Capital for its analysis of Galaxy Gaming by adding (i) a row to present calculated medians and (ii) a column for transaction values, in each case for the selected transactions (new language underlined):

“The selected transactions (and their corresponding multiples) considered by Macquarie Capital for its analysis of Galaxy were:

On page 53, the first paragraph under the subheading “Discounted Cash Flow Analysis” is amended and restated as follows (new language underlined):

“Macquarie Capital performed a discounted cash flow analysis for Galaxy by calculating the estimated present value (as of June 30, 2024) of (a) the standalone unlevered free cash flows that Galaxy was forecasted to generate during the six-month period ending December 31, 2024 through fiscal year ending December 31, 2029, based on the Galaxy Projections (see - “Unaudited Prospective Financial Information”) and (b) an estimated terminal value for Galaxy. To derive an estimate of Galaxy’s terminal value, Macquarie Capital applied terminal multiple ranges of (i) 4.9x to 6.4x to Galaxy’s 2029E Adj. EBITDA (based on the Galaxy Projections) and (ii) 9.4x to 11.9x to Galaxy’s 2029E Adj. EBITDA less CapEx (based on the Galaxy Projections). The present values (as of June 30, 2024) of the cash flows and implied terminal values were then calculated using a range of discount rates, selected by Macquarie Capital based on its professional judgement and experience after application of the capital asset pricing model, of 15.3% to 17.3%. This analysis indicated the following approximate implied per share equity value reference ranges for Galaxy, as compared to the per share merger consideration in the Merger.”

On page 53, the first paragraph under the subheading “Certain Additional Information” is amended and restated as follows (new language underlined):

“Macquarie Capital also observed certain additional information that was not considered part of its financial analyses with respect to its opinion but was noted for informational purposes, including premia reflected in certain precedent public transactions. Reviewing data from over 1,000 transactions (other than master limited partnership and real estate transactions) with premia ranging from 0% to 200%, that were announced from 2010 to July 15, 2024 and involved North American publicly listed targets with enterprise values from $10 million to $1 billion, Macquarie Capital noted that the mean, median, 25^th percentile and 75^th percentile one-day premia were 44.2%, 34.2%, 17.9% and 57.8% and that applying an illustrative range of premia of 29.2% to 39.2% to Galaxy’s closing share price on July 17, 2024 would indicate an implied per share equity range of $1.85 to $1.99.”

The section of the Definitive Proxy Statement entitled “Certain Unaudited Prospective Financial Information” is amended and supplemented as follows: 

On page 56, under the subheading “Unaudited Prospective Financial Information,” the following disclosure supplements and restates the table presenting certain unaudited prospective financial information of Galaxy by incorporating additional information concerning (i) Adj. EBITDA minus Capital Expenditures and (ii) percentage growth in Net Revenue, margin as a percentage of Adjusted EBITDA and conversion as a percentage of Adj. EBITDA minus Capital Expenditures (new language underlined):

“The following table presents estimates of Galaxy’s revenue, Adjusted EBITDA, EBIT, NOPAT, Capital Expenditures, Adj. EBITDA minus Capital Expenditures and Unlevered Free Cash Flow, in each case, for the second half of fiscal year 2024 through 2029, as reflected in the Unaudited Prospective Financial Information, as approved by Galaxy management.

The section of the Definitive Proxy Statement entitled “Interests of the Directors and Executive Officers of Galaxy in the Merger” is amended and supplemented as follows:

On page 60, the first paragraph under the subheading “New Parent Arrangements” is amended and restated as follows (new language underlined):

As of the date of this proxy statement, no such agreements, arrangements or understandings with Parent exist.
