Environmental Sustainability

We aim to include environmental sustainability and social responsibility as a part of L&W’s operations. We aim to align to the requirements of the International Organization for Standardization 14001 guidelines and align to the UN Sustainable Development Goals in order to aid in the preservation of natural resources. We continually seek to look for opportunities that foster sustainable operations in all our facilities and reduce negative impact on the environment to include the preservation of resources, energy efficiency and waste management. In 2024, we aligned to 12 of the 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals and became an official signatory of the UN Global Compact.

Social Impact

We consider responsible gaming, social impact and philanthropy to be ESG priorities. For example, we support public education and awareness campaigns and seek to comply with the American Gaming Association Responsible Gaming Code of Conduct for advertising and marketing. In addition, a number of our employees have served on several boards and committees relating to responsible gaming. We utilize responsible gaming software and a player budget tool, which provide players the ability to personalize a gaming budget on a given device, on all our games in use in casinos located in Australia, Canada, New Zealand and the U.S.

We are active in our charitable giving, employee volunteerism and community outreach programs. We continue to give back to communities and charities globally that support, among others, education, environmental sustainability, food insecurities, responsible gaming, diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives.

More information about our CSR initiatives can be found on our website. Nothing on our website shall be deemed incorporated by reference into this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

ESG Reporting

We published on our website our second annual Global CSR Report and ESG Report in 2024, and we expect to publish updates to these reports annually.
