Nevada Gaming Control Board: Notice 2022-64 Standard Financial Statements (NGC-17)

Nevada Gaming Commission Regulation 6.070 requires all nonrestricted licensees having gross revenue of $1 million or more for the 12 months ended June 30th to file standard financial statements each fiscal year. These statements are used to complete the Nevada Gaming Abstract.
The standard financial statement filing will be the same as last year using our online filing system (“online system”). The link to the online system is available on our website at www.gaming.nv.gov under Tax Forms. The standard financial statements must be submitted to the Nevada Gaming Control Board no later than September 15, 2022.
If applicable, the value of the Contra Revenue should be broken out separately and reported on the NGC-17. Do NOT net the amount of the Contra Revenue against the revenue in each department and report zero under Contra Revenue.
Additionally, any assets, liabilities, expenses or revenues held at the corporate level that are directly attributable to the licensee should be included in the standard financial statement. Interest expense held at the corporate level should be included only if the proceeds from the associated debt were used by the actual licensee filing the statement.
We have posted the “Uniform Chart of Accounts” on our website. Please use this if you have any questions regarding how to classify items on your financial statements. If you have any questions relating to the reporting requirements, please contact Michael Lawton, Senior Economic Analyst, at
(775) 684-7700. If you have any questions concerning the online system, please contact the Tax and License Division at (775) 684-7770 for Northern Nevada and (702) 486-2008 for Southern Nevada.

Chicago City Council Members Pushing to Legalize Video Gambling

Chicago City Council members are reviving plans to legalize video gambling in the city, introducing two ordinances that could bring hundreds of terminals to O’Hare and Midway airports and allow machines citywide for the first time.
One ordinance, introduced by Alderman Gilbert Villegas (36th), targets the city’s airports, where he sees both political feasibility and high revenue potential.
“The General Assembly has provided this opportunity through the casino bill. Yet, we’re not taking advantage of capturing dollars from one of the busiest airports in the country,” Villegas said.
“People are there, in some cases, one or two hours before. If their flight is delayed or they’re making a connection and there is a delay, there’s an opportunity to capture an audience that may not even be going to the city.”
Villegas’ proposal includes a $10,000 license fee per location, plus $500 per terminal. A separate terminal license would cost $1000, with an additional $500 per unit. If 400 machines each generated $800 daily, Villegas estimates annual revenue could reach $116.8 million, with the city taking a share through licensing and taxes.
Alderman Anthony Beale (9th) is pushing for a broader citywide expansion. His ordinance would legalize video gambling throughout Chicago, including in neighborhood bars and restaurants.
“We need to do it citywide and at the airports. We need the revenue and this administration has not shown a willingness to find new revenue that’s not gonna hit the taxpayers in every household,” Beale said.
Beale’s ordinance proposes a $500 license fee per location and a $1000-per-terminal charge for both the site and the machine itself. He has criticized the administration for dismissing the potential benefits, arguing that the current tax formula could be renegotiated with state lawmakers.
“That’s because they haven’t shown the willingness to go down to Springfield and change the formula. I’m hoping that submitting these ordinances will finally convince them to send a team down there,” he said.

Prime Skill Games Inc. Official Response to AGCO Press Release

As CEO of Prime Skill Games Inc., I feel compelled to address recent comments made by the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario regarding so-called unapproved gambling machines in convenience stores across the province.
Let me be perfectly clear
Our machines are not gambling devices. They are entirely skill-based, fully compliant with the law, and built on the fundamental idea that players are in control. The outcome of every session is determined solely by the player’s ability, not by random chance.
Prime Skill Games is proud to be the only true skill game operating in Ontario today.
We categorically reject any suggestion that our products fall under the definition of unregulated gambling. Such statements are inaccurate, misleading, and fail to recognize the critical distinction between games of skill and games of chance.
We stand firmly behind the legality of our machines and the integrity of our operations. We will demonstrate this through every available means, whether through legal documentation, expert analysis, or, if necessary, before the courts. We are prepared and unafraid to defend the truth.
To our players, partners, and business community, we want to reassure you that our mission has not changed. We are committed to offering a responsible, transparent, and innovative entertainment experience. We will not be intimidated by broad and baseless accusations, and we will continue to move forward with strength and clarity.
Sincerely
Matt ZamroĹşniak
Chief Executive Officer
Prime Skill Games Inc.
