Bringing More to the TableTM

During this presentation and the Q&A session, we may be making forward-looking statements that reflect certain risks and uncertainties associated with Shuffle Master’s business.

The forward-looking statement paragraph that appears in our most recently filed 8-K, 10-K and 10-Q filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission more specifically describe those risks and uncertainties and we urge you to read those filings carefully.

This presentation reflects reclassifications for discontinued operations and segment realignment.
