NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

GTECH HOLDINGS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION, BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION PLANS

ORGANIZATION

GTECH Holdings Corporation ("Holdings") is a global technology services company
providing software, networks and professional services that power
high-performance solutions. We are the world's leading operator of highly-secure
online lottery transaction processing systems, doing business in 53 countries
worldwide and we have a growing presence in commercial gaming technology and
financial services transaction processing. We have a single operating and
reportable business segment, the Transaction Processing segment. In these notes,
the terms "Holdings," "Company," "we," "our," and "us" refer to GTECH Holdings
Corporation and all subsidiaries included in the consolidated financial
statements, unless otherwise specified. The accounting policies of the
Transaction Processing segment are the same as those described in Note 1 -
"Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" in our
Consolidated Financial Statements and footnotes included in our fiscal 2004
Annual Report on Form 10-K. Management evaluates the performance of this segment
based on operating income.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Holdings, the
parent of GTECH Corporation ("GTECH"), have been prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") for interim financial
information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation
S-X. They do not include all information and notes required by GAAP for complete
financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting
of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have
been included. Operating results for the six-month period ended August 28, 2004
are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full
fiscal year ending February 26, 2005. The balance sheet at February 28, 2004 has
been derived from the audited financial statements at that date. For further
information refer to the Consolidated Financial Statements and footnotes
included in our fiscal 2004 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Certain amounts in our prior period financial statements have been reclassified
to conform to the current period presentation.

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION PLANS

We follow Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock
Issued to Employees" and related Interpretations in accounting for our
stock-based compensation plans and we have elected to continue to use the
intrinsic value-based method to account for stock option grants. We have adopted
the disclosure-only provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation - Transition and Disclosure,"
an amendment of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123.
Accordingly, no compensation expense has been recognized for our stock-based
compensation plans other than for restricted stock.

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION, BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION PLANS
(continued)

Had we elected to recognize compensation expense based upon the fair value at
the grant dates for awards under these plans, net income and earnings per share
would have been reduced to the pro forma amounts listed in the table below. The
fair value of each grant is estimated on the date of grant using the
Black-Scholes option pricing model.

NOTE 2 - COMMON STOCK SPLIT AND TREASURY STOCK RETIREMENT

On June 17, 2004, our Board of Directors approved a 2-for-1 common stock split,
payable in the form of a stock dividend, which entitled each shareholder of
record on July 1, 2004 to receive one share of common stock for each outstanding
share of common stock held on that date. The stock dividend was distributed on
July 30, 2004. All references to common shares and per share amounts herein have
been restated to reflect the stock split for all periods presented.

In connection with the declaration of the stock dividend, our Board of Directors
approved the retirement of 69.8 million shares of our common stock held in
treasury on July 29, 2004 (stated on a basis reflecting the stock split which
occurred subsequent to the retirement). The $528.8 million of treasury stock at
the time of the retirement was eliminated from treasury stock through a charge
to retained earnings and common stock.

NOTE 3 - BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS

BILLBIRD S.A.

In September 2004 (after the close of our fiscal 2005 second quarter), our
majority-owned subsidiary, PolCard S.A, completed the acquisition of
privately-held BillBird S.A., the leading provider of electronic bill payment
services in Poland, for an all-cash purchase price of approximately $6.0
million. Approval of this transaction by our shareholders was not required.

SPIELO MANUFACTURING INCORPORATED

On April 30, 2004, we completed the acquisition of privately-held Spielo
Manufacturing Incorporated ("Spielo"), a leading provider of video lottery
terminals ("VLT's") and related products and services to the global gaming
industry, for an all-cash purchase price of approximately $150 million. In
addition, we paid Spielo shareholders approximately $7 million out of a
potential maximum earn-out amount of up to $35 million, which Spielo
shareholders are entitled to receive in the 18 months following the closing,
based upon Spielo achieving certain VLT installation objectives in New York.
Approval of this transaction by our shareholders was not required.

LEEWARD ISLANDS LOTTERY HOLDING COMPANY INC.

On May 5, 2004, we completed the acquisition of privately-held Leeward Islands
Lottery Holding Company Inc. ("LILHCo"), a lottery operating company
headquartered on the Caribbean islands of Antigua and St. Croix, for an all-cash
purchase price of approximately $40 million. Approval of this transaction by our
shareholders was not required.

We have not yet finalized the evaluation and allocation of the purchase price
for the Spielo and LILHCo acquisitions. However, we do not expect the final
purchase price allocation will be materially different than our preliminary
allocation.

These acquisitions are individually and in the aggregate, not material to our
consolidated financial statements and accordingly, pro forma financial
information has not been presented.

NOTE 5 - RESTRICTED ASSETS

A June 25, 2004 ruling in a civil action initiated by federal attorneys with
Brazil's Public Ministry has reduced payments that we otherwise would receive
from our lottery contract with Caixa Economica Federal ("CEF"), our customer and
the operator of Brazil's National Lottery, which expires in May 2005. This
ruling ordered that 30% of payments subsequent to the June 25, 2004 ruling due
to GTECH Brasil Ltda., our Brazilian subsidiary ("GTECH Brazil") from CEF, be
withheld and deposited in an account maintained by the Court (as further
discussed in "Legal Proceedings - Brazilian-Related Legal Proceedings" in Part
II, Item 1 in this report).

Accordingly, we have not recognized service revenues for the payments that were
withheld from GTECH Brazil, as realization of these amounts is not reasonably
assured. In addition, the ruling ordered that all assets of GTECH Brazil be
identified to the Court so as to prevent their transfer or disposition. As of
August 28, 2004, GTECH Brazil assets were as follows (dollars in thousands):

NOTE 6 - PRODUCT WARRANTIES

We offer a product warranty on all of our manufactured products (primarily
terminals and related peripherals) sold to our customers. Although we do not
have a standard product warranty, our typical warranty provides that we will
repair or replace defective products for a period of time (usually a minimum of
90 days) from the date revenue is recognized or from the date a product is
delivered and tested. We estimate product warranty costs that we expect to incur
during the warranty period and we record a charge to costs of sales for the
estimated warranty cost at the time the product sale is recorded. In determining
the appropriate warranty provision, consideration is given to historical
warranty cost information, the status of the terminal model in its life cycle
and current terminal performance. We periodically assess the adequacy of our
product warranty reserves and adjust them as necessary in the period when the
information necessary to make the adjustment becomes available.

We typically do not provide a product warranty on purchased products sold to our
customers but attempt to pass the manufacturer's warranty, if any, on to them.

A summary of product warranty activity, which is included in Accrued Expenses in
our Consolidated Balance Sheets, is as follows (dollars in thousands):

We have a $300 million unsecured revolving credit facility expiring in June 2006
(the "Credit Facility"). At August 28, 2004, the weighted average interest rate
for all outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility was 2.53%. Up to $100
million of the Credit Facility may be used for the issuance of letters of
credit. At August 28, 2004, there was $255.9 million available for borrowing
under the Credit Facility, after considering $29.1 million of letters of credit
issued and outstanding.

Holders of our 1.75% Convertible Debentures due December 2021 ("Debentures") may
require us to repurchase all or part of their Debentures on December 15, 2004,
December 15, 2006, December 15, 2011 and December 15, 2016 at a price equal to
100% of the principal amount of the Debentures, plus accrued interest. We have
classified the Debentures as long-term liabilities in our Consolidated Balance
Sheets at August 28, 2004 and February 28, 2004 because we intend to borrow
under our $300 million Credit Facility to refinance any amount holders of the
Debentures require us to repurchase on December 15, 2004. Any amount borrowed
under the Credit Facility is expected to remain outstanding for an uninterrupted
period extending beyond one year from August 28, 2004.

PERFORMANCE AND OTHER BONDS

In connection with certain contracts and procurements, we have been required to
deliver performance bonds for the benefit of our customers and bid and
litigation bonds for the benefit of potential customers, respectively. These
bonds give the beneficiary the right to obtain payment and/or performance from
the issuer of the bond if certain specified events occur. In the case of
performance bonds, which generally have a term of one year, such events include
our failure to perform our obligations under the applicable contract. To obtain
these bonds, we are required to indemnify the issuers against the costs they
incur if a beneficiary exercises its rights under a bond. Historically, our
customers have not exercised their rights under these bonds and we do not
currently anticipate that they will do so. The following table provides
information related to potential commitments at August 28, 2004:

LOTTERY TECHNOLOGY SERVICES INVESTMENT CORPORATION

We have a 44% interest in Lottery Technology Services Investment Corporation
("LTSIC"), which we account for using the equity method of accounting. LTSIC's
wholly owned subsidiary, Lottery Technology Services Corporation ("LTSC"),
provides equipment and services (which we supplied to LTSC), to the Bank of
Taipei. The Bank of Taipei holds the license to operate the Taiwan Public
Welfare Lottery.

In fiscal 2002, in order to assist LTSC with the financing they required to
enable them to perform under their obligation to operate the Taiwan Public
Welfare Lottery on behalf of the Bank of Taipei, we guaranteed loans made to
LTSC by an unrelated commercial lender. The loans have a maturity date of March
2007 and our guarantee expires in July 2007. We did not receive any
consideration in exchange for our guarantees on behalf of LTSC. Rather, these
guarantees were issued in connection with the formation of LTSC and LTSIC. At
August 28, 2004, the principal amount of the loans was $2.1 million and our
guarantee was $0.9 million.

We recognize 56% of gross profit on product sales to LTSC and defer the
remaining 44% as a result of our equity interest in LTSIC. We recognize these
deferrals ratably over the life of our contract with LTSC. At August 28, 2004,
deferred product gross profit totaling $2.8 million is included in Deferred
Revenue and Advance Billings and Other Liabilities in our Consolidated Balance
Sheets.

In fiscal years prior to 2005, we deferred service revenue from LTSC in an
amount equal to our 44% guarantee of LTSC's debt and these deferrals are being
recognized as the guaranteed debt is repaid. At August 28, 2004, deferred
service revenue totaling $0.9 million is included in Deferred Revenue and
Advance Billings in our Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Our 1.75% Convertible Debentures ("Debentures") are convertible at the option of
the holder into shares of our common stock at an initial conversion rate of
72.7272 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of Debentures, which
is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $13.75 per share.
The Debentures become convertible when, among other circumstances, the closing
price of our common stock is more than 120% of the conversion price
(approximately $16.50 per share) for at least 20 out of 30 consecutive trading
days prior to the date of surrender for conversion. There are a total of 12.7
million shares issuable upon the conversion of the Debentures.

The Debentures were convertible for all trading days in the quarters ended
August 28, 2004 and August 23, 2003, resulting in 12.7 million shares included
in the computation of diluted earnings per share.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

NOTE 14 - INCOME TAXES

Our effective income tax rate is greater than the statutory rate primarily due
to state income taxes. The effective income tax rate is based upon expected
income for the year, the composition of income or loss in different
jurisdictions and related statutory tax rates, accruals for tax contingencies
and the tax consequences or benefits from audits or the resolution of tax
contingencies.


NOTE 15 - SUBSEQUENT EVENT

BILLBIRD S.A.

In September 2004, our majority-owned subsidiary, PolCard S.A, completed the
acquisition of privately-held BillBird S.A., the leading provider of electronic
bill payment services in Poland. See Note 3 "Business Acquisitions" for detailed
disclosures.


NOTE 16 - SUPPLEMENTAL GUARANTOR/NON-GUARANTOR FINANCIAL INFORMATION

On December 18, 2001, Holdings (the "Parent Company") issued, in a private
placement, $175 million principal amount of 1.75% Convertible Debentures due
December 15, 2021 (the "Debentures"). On October 9, 2003, the Parent Company
issued, in a private placement, $250 million principal amount of 4.75% Senior
Notes due October 15, 2010, all of which were subsequently exchanged for 4.75%
Senior Notes due October 15, 2010 registered under the Securities Act of 1933
(the "Senior Notes"). The Debentures and Senior Notes are unsecured and
unsubordinated obligations of the Parent Company that are jointly and severally,
fully and unconditionally guaranteed by GTECH and two of its wholly owned
subsidiaries: GTECH Rhode Island Corporation and GTECH Latin America Corporation
(collectively with GTECH, the "Guarantor Subsidiaries"). Condensed consolidating
financial information is presented below.

Selling, general and administrative costs and research and development costs are
allocated to each subsidiary based on the ratio of the subsidiaries' combined
service revenues and sales of products to consolidated revenues.

The Parent Company conducts business through its consolidated subsidiaries and
unconsolidated affiliates and has, as its only material asset, an investment in
GTECH. Equity in earnings of consolidated affiliates recorded by the Parent
Company includes the Parent Company's share of the after-tax earnings of GTECH.
Taxes payable and deferred income taxes are obligations of the subsidiaries.
Income tax expense related to both current and deferred income taxes are
allocated to each subsidiary based on our consolidated effective income tax
rates.

Item 2.    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
           RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

OVERVIEW

The following Management's Discussion and Analysis ("MD&A") is intended to help
the reader understand the financial results of GTECH Holdings Corporation. MD&A
is provided as a supplement to, and should be read in conjunction with, our
financial statements and the accompanying notes. This overview provides guidance
on the individual sections of MD&A as follows:

-     FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS - cautionary information about forward-looking
      statements.

-     OUR BUSINESS - a general description of our business; Brazilian legal
      proceedings; acquisitions; our common stock split and treasury stock
      retirement; and other business developments.

-     OPERATIONS REVIEW - an analysis of our consolidated results of operations
      for the three and six month periods ended August 28, 2004 and August 23,
      2003 presented in our financial statements. We operate in one business -
      Transaction Processing, and we have a single operating and reportable
      business segment. Therefore, our discussions are not quantified by segment
      results.

-     LIQUIDITY, CAPITAL RESOURCES AND FINANCIAL POSITION - an analysis of cash
      flows, financial position, and potential commitments.

-     FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT AND DIVIDEND POLICY - information about
      financial risk management; interest rate market risk; equity price risk;
      foreign currency exchange rate risk; and our dividend policy.

-     SUBSEQUENT EVENT - information about a business acquisition that occurred
      subsequent to August 28, 2004.

Unless specified otherwise, we use the terms "Holdings," "the Company," "we,"
"our," and "us" in MD&A to refer to GTECH Holdings Corporation and its
consolidated subsidiaries included in the consolidated financial statements.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Statements contained in this section and elsewhere in this report which are not
historical statements constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning
of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934. Generally, the words "believe," "expect," "estimate," "anticipate,"
"will," "may," "could," "plan," "continue" and similar expressions identify
forward-looking statements. Such statements include, without limitation,
statements relating to:

-     the future prospects for and stability of the lottery industry and other
      businesses in which we are engaged or expect to be engaged;

-     our future operating and financial performance (including, without
      limitation, expected future growth in revenues, profit margins and
      earnings per share);

-     our ability to retain existing contracts and to obtain and retain new
      contracts; and

-     the results and effects of legal proceedings and investigations.

                                      -25-
<PAGE>

These forward-looking statements reflect management's assessment based on
information currently available, but are not guarantees and are subject to risks
and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from
those contemplated in the forward-looking statements. These risks and
uncertainties include, among other things, the following:

-     government regulations and other actions affecting the online lottery
      industry could have a negative effect on our business and sales;

-     we may be subject to adverse determinations in pending legal proceedings
      (including recently announced legal proceedings in Brazil) which could
      result in substantial monetary judgments or reputational damage;

-     our lottery operations are dependent upon our continued ability to retain
      and extend our existing contracts and win new contracts;

-     slow growth or declines in sales of online lottery goods and services
      could lead to lower revenues and cash flow;

-     we derive close to half of our revenues from foreign jurisdictions
      (including over ten percent in fiscal 2004 from Brazilian operations) and
      are subject to the economic, political and social instability risks of
      doing business in foreign jurisdictions;

-     our results of operations are exposed to foreign currency exchange rate
      fluctuations which could result in lower revenues, net income and cash
      flows when such results are translated into U.S. dollar accounts;

-     we have a concentrated customer base and the loss of any of our larger
      customers (or lower sales from any of these customers) could lead to lower
      revenue;

-     our quarterly operating results may fluctuate significantly, including as
      a result of variations in the amount and timing of product sales, the
      occurrence of large jackpots in lotteries (which increase the amount
      wagered and our revenue) and expenses incurred in connection with lottery
      start-ups;

-     we operate in a highly competitive environment and increased competition
      may cause us to experience lower cash flows or to lose contracts;

-     we are subject to substantial penalties for failure to perform under our
      contracts;

-     we may not be able to respond to technological changes or to satisfy
      future technology demands of our customers, in which case we could fall
      behind our competitors;

-     if we are unable to manage potential risks related to acquisitions, our
      business and growth prospects could suffer;

-     expansion of the gaming industry faces opposition which could limit our
      access to some markets;

-     our business prospects and future success depend upon our ability to
      attract and retain qualified employees;

-     our business prospects and future success rely heavily upon the integrity
      of our employees and executives and the security of our systems;

-     our dependence on certain suppliers creates a risk of implementation
      delays if the supply contract is terminated or breached, and any delays
      may result in substantial penalties;

-     our non-lottery ventures, which are an increasingly important aspect of
      our business, may fail; and

-     other risks and uncertainties set forth below and elsewhere in this
      report, in our fiscal 2004 Form 10-K, and in our subsequent press releases
      and Form 10-Q's and other reports and filings with the Securities and

OUR BUSINESS

GENERAL

We operate on a 52-week or 53-week fiscal year ending on the last Saturday in
February and fiscal 2005 is a 52-week year that ends on February 26, 2005.
Fiscal 2004 was a 53-week year and we included the extra week in our fourth
quarter ended February 28, 2004.

We are a global technology services company providing software, networks and
professional services that power high-performance solutions. We are the world's
leading operator of highly-secure online lottery transaction processing systems,
doing business in 53 countries worldwide and we have a growing presence in
commercial gaming technology ("Gaming solutions") and financial services
transaction processing ("Commercial services"). A comparison of our revenue
concentration is as follows:

</TABLE>

Being a global business, we derive a substantial portion of our revenue from our
operations outside of the United States. In particular, in fiscal 2004, we
derived 49.4% of our revenues from international operations and 10.2% of our
revenues from our Brazilian operations alone (including 9.7% of our revenues
from Caixa Economica Federal, the operator of Brazil's National Lottery, our
largest customer in fiscal 2004 based on annual revenues). In addition,
substantial portions of our assets, primarily consisting of equipment we use to
operate online lottery systems for our customers, are held outside of the United
States. We are also exposed to more general risks of international operations,
including increased governmental regulation of the online lottery industry in
the markets where we operate; exchange controls or other currency restrictions;
and significant political instability.

We have derived substantially all of our revenues from the rendering of services
and the sale or supply of computerized online lottery systems and components to
government-authorized lotteries. Our service revenues are derived primarily from
lottery service contracts, which are typically at least five years in duration,
and generally provide compensation to us based upon a percentage of a lottery's
gross online and instant ticket sales. These percentages vary depending on the
size of the lottery and the scope of services provided to the lottery. We
primarily derive product sale revenues from the installation of new online
lottery systems, installation of new software and sales of lottery terminals and
equipment in connection with the expansion of existing lottery systems. Our
product margins fluctuate depending on the mix, volume and timing of product
sale contracts. Our product sale revenues from period to period may not be
comparable due to the size and timing of product sale transactions. During
fiscal 2005, we currently anticipate that product sales will be in the range of
$210 million to $220 million.

Our compensation under lottery service contracts is typically based upon a
percentage of a lottery's gross online and instant ticket sales. Over the past
several fiscal years, we have experienced and may continue to experience a
reduction in the percentage of lottery ticket sales we receive from certain
customers resulting from contract rebids, extensions and renewals due to a
number of factors, including the substantial growth of lottery sales over the
last decade, reductions in the cost of technology and telecommunications
services, and general market and competitive dynamics. In anticipation and
response to these trends, beginning in fiscal 2001, we began the implementation
of our new Enterprise Series-led technology strategy combined with the
implementation of a number of ongoing cost savings initiatives and efficiency
improvement programs designed to enable us to maintain our market leadership in
the lottery industry. We are unable to determine at this time the likely effect
of this trend on our business.

                                      -27-

Our business is highly regulated, and the competition to secure new government
contracts is often intense. From time to time, competitors challenge our
contract awards and there have been, and may continue to be, investigations of
various types, including grand jury investigations conducted by governmental
authorities into possible improprieties and wrongdoing in connection with
efforts to obtain and/or the awarding of lottery contracts and related matters.
Because such investigations frequently are conducted in secret, we may not
necessarily know of the existence of an investigation which might involve us.
Because our reputation for integrity is an important factor in our business
dealings with lottery and other governmental agencies, a governmental allegation
or a finding of improper conduct on our part or attributable to us in any manner
could have a material adverse effect on our business, including our ability to
retain existing contracts or to obtain new or renewal contracts. In addition,
continuing adverse publicity resulting from these investigations and related
matters could have a material adverse effect on our reputation and business. See
the following for further information concerning these matters and other
contingencies:

BRAZILIAN LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

Revenues from our lottery contract with Caixa Economica Federal ("CEF"), our
customer and the operator of Brazil's National Lottery, accounted for 9.7% of
our total fiscal 2004 revenues, making CEF our largest customer in fiscal 2004
based upon annual revenues.

A June 25, 2004 ruling in a civil action initiated by federal attorneys with
Brazil's Public Ministry will have the effect of materially reducing payments
that we otherwise would receive from our lottery contract with CEF, which
expires in May 2005. This ruling has ordered that 30% of payments subsequent to
the June 25, 2004 ruling due to GTECH Brasil Ltda., our Brazilian subsidiary
("GTECH Brazil") from CEF, be withheld and deposited in an account maintained by
the Court. In addition, the ruling ordered that all assets of GTECH Brazil be
identified to the Court so as to prevent their transfer or disposition. As of
August 28, 2004, GTECH Brazil assets approximated $25.2 million as follows
(dollars in millions):

The restricted cash is included in Other Assets in our Consolidated Balance
Sheet.

We estimate that this decision will reduce our service revenues and pre-tax
profits from our CEF contract by approximately $22 million to $25 million during
fiscal 2005. Pending our appeal of this ruling, we are undertaking a
comprehensive review of our service and investment levels in Brazil. Refer to
"Legal Proceedings - Brazilian-Related Legal Proceedings" in Part II, Item 1 in
this report; and Part 1, Item 3, "Legal Proceedings - Brazilian Legal
Proceedings, The CEF Contract Extension Proceedings," and Note 13 to the

ACQUISITIONS

BILLBIRD S.A.

In September 2004 (after the close of our fiscal 2005 second quarter), our
majority-owned subsidiary, PolCard S.A. ("PolCard"), acquired privately-held
BillBird S.A ("BillBird"), the leading provider of electronic bill payment
services in Poland, for an all-cash purchase price of approximately $6.0
million. By combining BillBird and PolCard (which is the leading debit and
credit card merchant transaction acquirer and processor company in Poland), we
will enhance our market strategy of providing a product suite including debit
and credit transaction processing, card and ATM management services, electronic
bill payments, and prepaid mobile phone top-ups.

SPIELO MANUFACTURING INCORPORATED

During the first quarter of fiscal 2005, we acquired privately-held Spielo
Manufacturing Incorporated ("Spielo"), a leading provider of video lottery
terminals ("VLT's") and related products and services to the global gaming
industry, for an all-cash purchase price of approximately $150 million. In
addition, we paid Spielo shareholders approximately $7 million out of a
potential maximum earn-out amount of up to $35 million, which Spielo
shareholders are entitled to receive in the 18 months following the closing,
based upon Spielo achieving certain VLT installation objectives in New York. By
acquiring Spielo, we will be better able to deliver a comprehensive, integrated
VLT solution to our existing and potential customers, with a single point of
contact and accountability.

LEEWARD ISLANDS LOTTERY HOLDING COMPANY INC.

During the first quarter of fiscal 2005, we acquired privately-held Leeward
Islands Lottery Holding Company Inc. ("LILHCo"), a lottery operating company
headquartered on the Caribbean islands of Antigua and St. Croix, for an all-cash
purchase price of approximately $40 million. By acquiring Caribbean-based
LILHCo, we will enhance our strategic foothold in that region, as well as
provide significant growth opportunities in additional jurisdictions throughout
the Caribbean.

We continue to evaluate a variety of opportunities to broaden our offerings of
high-volume transaction processing services outside of our core market of
providing online lottery services, such as the processing and transmission of
commercial, non-lottery transactions including bill payments, electronic tax
payments, utility payments, prepaid cellular telephone recharges and
retail-based programs such as gift cards. Currently, our networks in Brazil,
Poland, Chile, the Czech Republic and Jamaica process bill payments and other
commercial service transactions. In the near term, we expect to concentrate our
efforts to grow commercial service revenues principally in the United States,
Latin America and Eastern Europe. While our goal is to leverage our technology,
infrastructure and relationships to drive growth in commercial services, if, in
the course of pursuing these opportunities, we identify an opportunity to gain
access to certain markets through the acquisition of existing businesses, we may
consider making such acquisitions.

COMMON STOCK SPLIT AND TREASURY STOCK RETIREMENT

On June 17, 2004, our Board of Directors approved a 2-for-1 common stock split,
payable in the form of a stock dividend, which entitled each shareholder of
record on July 1, 2004 to receive one share of common stock for each outstanding
share of common stock held on that date. The stock dividend was distributed on
July 30, 2004. All references to common shares and per share amounts herein have
been restated to reflect the stock split for all periods presented.

In connection with the declaration of the stock dividend, our Board of Directors
approved the retirement of 69.8 million shares of our common stock held in
treasury on July 29, 2004 (stated on a basis reflecting the stock split which
occurred subsequent to the retirement). The $528.8 million of treasury stock at
the time of the retirement was eliminated from treasury stock through a charge
to retained earnings and common stock.

OTHER BUSINESS DEVELOPMENTS

In April 2004, we were notified that our selection in February 2004 as the
apparent successful vendor to provide equipment and services for a new online
lottery system and associated telecommunications network in Mexico to
Pronosticos para la Asistencia Publica ("Pronosticos") was retracted. As part of
a ruling by the Mexican Comptroller Ministry on a protest filed by unsuccessful
competitors, our bid was declared non-compliant and disqualified. In May 2004,
we challenged the Comptroller's decision.

In August 2004, the Mexican Comptroller Ministry declared our bid compliant and
reinstated our contract award. In September 2004 (after the close of our fiscal
2005 second quarter), we signed a six-year integrated services contract with
Pronosticos which is expected to commence in September 2005.

</TABLE>

The 2.2% increase in domestic lottery service revenues was primarily due to
higher service revenues from an increase in sales by our domestic lottery
customers of approximately 6% with the balance principally due to the impact of
the Interlott acquisition in the third quarter of fiscal 2004, along with the
launch of our new service contract in Tennessee, partially offset by contractual
rate changes and lower jackpot activity. While we are not able to quantify
precisely the reasons for increases in sales by our domestic lottery customers,
we believe that in general, such increases are attributable to enhanced
marketing efforts by state lottery authorities seeking to offset declining tax
revenues and the successful introduction by state lottery authorities of new
games and products, modifications to existing games (such as matrix changes and
more frequent drawings) and expanded distribution channels, such as Keno.

                                      -30-
<PAGE>

The 4.3% increase in international lottery service revenues includes higher
service revenues from an increase in sales by our international lottery
customers of approximately 2%, with the balance of the increase due to higher
jackpot activity and favorable foreign exchange rates, partially offset by the
impact of contractual rate changes and lower revenues from Brazil related to the
court order to withhold 30% of our revenues. While we are not able to quantify
precisely the reasons for increases in sales by our international lottery
customers, we believe that in general, such increases are attributable to more
rapid growth rates typical of newer lottery jurisdictions, the successful
introduction of new games and modifications to existing games (such as matrix
changes and more frequent drawings).

The 0.5% decrease in commercial transaction processing service revenues was
primarily due to lower revenues from Brazil related to the court order to
withhold 30% of our revenues, partially offset by an increase of approximately
11% in transaction volumes.

The 90.0% increase in gaming solutions service revenues was primarily due to the
acquisition of Spielo and the installation of additional video lottery terminals
in the state of Rhode Island.

Our service margins were down 4.0 percentage points from last year, primarily
due to contractual rate changes and the lower margins from Brazil related to the
court order to withhold 30% of our revenues, along with the impact of higher
depreciation and amortization related principally to contract renewals and the
implementation of new contracts.

</TABLE>

Product sales were up principally due to the sale of lottery terminals to our
customers in Belgium and Spain. Our product margins fluctuate depending on the
mix, volume and timing of product sales contracts. Our product margins were up
15.2 percentage points over last year, primarily due to the different mix of
sales, with the current year quarter including a high volume of lottery terminal
sales that carried higher margins than the prior year overall margin.

OPERATING EXPENSES

Operating expenses are comprised of selling, general and administrative (SG&A)
expenses and research and development (R&D) expenses.

The $2.8 million increase in SG&A expenses was principally due to higher legal
expenses associated with acquisition related activity, ongoing legal activities
in Brazil, and an acceleration in regulatory licensing activity in worldwide
commercial gaming markets, along with the consolidation of our recent Spielo
acquisition. The $1.5 million decrease in R&D expenses was primarily due to the
timing of development initiatives, partially offset by the impact of the Spielo
acquisiton.

</TABLE>

Interest expense was up $2.0 million over last year primarily due to higher debt
balances resulting from the issuance of $250 million of 4.75% Senior Notes in
the third quarter of fiscal 2004.

INCOME TAXES

Our effective income tax rate of 37% in the second quarter of fiscal 2005 was
comparable to the second quarter of fiscal 2004. We currently expect that our
full-year effective income tax rate will be in a range of 35% to 36% based on
the pending resolution of certain tax contingencies and the recent acquisitions
of non-U.S.-based companies. Our aggregate income tax rate in foreign
jurisdictions is lower than our income tax rate in the United States. Our income
tax rate may vary, however, depending on the composition of income or loss in
different countries and the resolution of audits and tax contingencies. We
expect our third quarter income tax rate to be in a range of approximately 30%
to 33%.

The 4.0% increase in domestic lottery service revenues was primarily due to
higher service revenues from an increase in sales by our domestic lottery
customers of approximately 6% with the balance principally due to the impact of
the Interlott acquisition in the third quarter of fiscal 2004, along with the
launch of our new service contract in Tennessee, partially offset by contractual
rate changes.

The 9.5% increase in international lottery service revenues includes higher
service revenues from an increase in sales by our international lottery
customers of approximately 3%, with the balance of the increase due to favorable
foreign exchange rates and higher jackpot activity, partially offset by lower
revenues from Brazil related to the court order to withhold 30% of our revenues.

The 26.3% increase in commercial transaction processing service revenues
includes higher service revenues from an increase in sales by our commercial
transaction processing customers of approximately 13.0%, with the balance of the
increase due to the acquisition of PolCard in the second quarter of fiscal 2004,
partially offset by lower revenues from Brazil related to the court order to
withhold 30% of our revenues.

The 59.8% increase in gaming solutions service revenues was primarily due to the
acquisition of Spielo and the installation of additional video lottery terminals
in existing jurisdictions.

Our service margins were down 2.8 percentage points from last year, primarily
due to contractual rate changes and the lower margins from Brazil related to the
court order to withhold 30% of our revenues, along with the impact of higher
depreciation and amortization related principally to contract renewals and the
implementation of new contracts. These decreases were partially offset by an
increase in sales by our lottery and commercial transaction processing
customers.

</TABLE>

Product sales were up principally due to the sale of lottery terminals to our
customers in Belgium and Spain, along with the impact of acquisitions. Our
product margins were up 9.2 percentage points over last year, primarily due to
the different mix of sales, with the current year quarter including a high
volume of lottery terminal sales that carried higher margins than the prior year
overall margin.

OPERATING EXPENSES

Operating expenses include selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses
and research and development (R&D) expenses.

The $6.2 million increase in SG&A expenses was principally due to the

Interest expense was up $4.1 million over last year primarily due to higher debt
balances resulting from the issuance of $250 million of 4.75% Senior Notes in
the third quarter of fiscal 2004.

WEIGHTED AVERAGE DILUTED SHARES

Weighted average diluted shares in the first six months of fiscal 2005 increased
by 7.9 million shares to 133.9 million shares, primarily due to the assumed
conversion of our $175 million principal amount of 1.75% Convertible Debentures
(the "Debentures") into shares of our common stock, resulting in a decrease to
diluted earnings per share of approximately $0.08. These Debentures are
convertible at the option of the holder into shares of our common stock at a
conversion price of approximately $13.75 per share when, among other
circumstances, our stock closes above $16.50 per share for at least 20 out of 30
consecutive trading days prior to the date of surrender for conversion. There
are a total of 12.7 million shares issuable upon the conversion of the
Debentures. The Debentures were convertible for all 126 trading days in the
first six months of fiscal 2005, and accordingly, 12.7 million shares were
included in the computation of diluted earnings per share. For the first six
months of fiscal 2004, the Debentures were convertible for 80 out of 127 trading
days, and accordingly, 7.9 million shares were included in the computation of
diluted earnings per share.

LIQUIDITY, CAPITAL RESOURCES AND FINANCIAL POSITION

We believe our ability to generate cash from operations to reinvest in our
business is one of our fundamental financial strengths and we expect to meet our
financial commitments and operating needs in the foreseeable future. We expect
to use cash generated from operating activities primarily for aggregate
contractual obligations and to pay dividends. We expect our growth to be
financed through a combination of cash generated from operating activities,
existing sources of liquidity, access to capital markets and other sources of
capital. Our debt ratings of Baa1 (stable outlook) from Moody's and BBB (stable
outlook) from Standard and Poor's contribute to our ability to access capital
markets at attractive prices. These ratings reflect several factors, including
our strong cash flows and balance sheet.

                                      -35-
<PAGE>

ANALYSIS OF CASH FLOWS

During the first six months of fiscal 2005, we generated $171.8 million of cash
from operations which, along with other sources of liquidity, was principally
used to fund the Spielo and LILHCo acquisitions of $192.4 million and to
purchase $113.0 million of systems, equipment and other assets relating to
contracts. In addition, we repaid the remaining $90.0 million of our 7.87%
Senior Notes and paid a related redemption premium of $10.6 million; repurchased
$82.8 million, or 3,649,500 shares, of our common stock; and paid cash dividends
of $20.1 million. At August 28, 2004, we had $30.3 million of cash and cash
equivalents on hand.

Our business is capital-intensive. We currently estimate that net cash to be
used for investing activities in fiscal 2005, excluding net purchases of
available-for-sale investment securities of $221.9 million and restricted cash
of $5.1 million, will be in the range of $520 million to $540 million, including
investments we made to acquire Spielo and LILHCo. We expect our principal
sources of liquidity to be existing cash along with cash we generate from
operations and borrowings under our revolving credit facility. Our credit
facility provides for an unsecured revolving line of credit of $300 million and
matures in June 2006. As of August 28, 2004, we had $15.0 million of borrowings
under the credit facility. Up to $100 million of the Credit Facility may be used
for the issuance of letters of credit. As of August 28, 2004, after considering
$29.1 million of letters of credit issued and outstanding, there was $255.9
million available for borrowing under the Credit Facility.

We currently expect that our cash flow from operations, existing cash, available
borrowings under our credit facility and access to additional sources of capital
will be sufficient, for the foreseeable future, to fund our anticipated working
capital and ordinary capital expenditure needs, to service our debt obligations,
to fund anticipated internal growth, to fund all or a portion of the cash needed
for potential acquisitions, to pay dividends, to fund the capital requirements
under our Master Contract with the Rhode Island Lottery and to repurchase shares
of our common stock, from time to time, under our share repurchase programs. We
may also seek alternative sources of financing to fund certain of our
obligations under our Master Contract with the Rhode Island Lottery and to fund
future potential acquisitions and growth opportunities that are not currently
contemplated in the $520 million to $540 million we estimate we will need in
fiscal 2005 for the uses disclosed above.

FINANCIAL POSITION

Our balance sheet as of August 28, 2004, as compared to our balance sheet as of
February 28, 2004, was impacted by our acquisitions of Spielo and LILHCo.
Drivers of the material changes in each specific balance sheet category are
described below.

Investment securities available-for-sale decreased by $221.9 million from
February 28, 2004, reflecting the $192.4 million payment for the Spielo and
LILHCo acquisitions.

Trade accounts receivable, net increased by $15.5 million, from $118.9 million
at February 28, 2004 to $134.4 million at August 28, 2004, primarily due to
receivables related to product sales recorded in the second quarter of fiscal
2005.

Inventories increased by $17.2 million, from $76.8 million at February 28, 2004
to $94.0 million at August 28, 2004, primarily due to inventory associated with
the acquisition of Spielo and finished lottery terminals to be delivered to
domestic lottery customers.

                                      -36-
<PAGE>

Systems, equipment and other assets relating to contracts, net, increased by
$58.4 million, from $591.4 million at February 28, 2004 to $649.8 million at
August 28, 2004, primarily due to the purchase of $113.0 million of systems,
equipment and other assets relating to contracts (principally related to lottery
system implementations in Florida, Wisconsin and Tennessee, lottery equipment
installations in Texas, and the acquisition of Spielo), partially offset by
depreciation expense.

Goodwill, net, increased by $136.3 million, from $188.6 million at February 28,
2004 to $324.9 million at August 28, 2004, primarily due to the acquisitions of
Spielo and LILHCo.

Intangible assets, net, increased by $44.4 million, from $28.2 million at
February 28, 2004 to $72.6 million at August 28, 2004, due to intangible assets
recorded as a result of our acquisitions of Spielo and LILHCo.

Employee compensation decreased by $14.2 million, from $34.0 million at February
28, 2004 to $19.8 million at August 28, 2004, primarily due to the payment of
incentive compensation and profit sharing in April 2004, partially offset by
current year provisions for incentive compensation.

Advance payments from customers decreased by $33.1 million, from $104.1 million
at February 28, 2004 to $71.0 million at August 28, 2004, primarily due to the
recognition of sales of lottery terminals to our customers in Belgium and Spain.

Deferred revenue and advance billings increased by $17.7 million, from $14.5
million at February 28, 2004 to $32.2 million at August 28, 2004, primarily due
to customer progress billings related to product sales expected to be recorded
in the second half of fiscal 2005.

Income taxes payable increased by $14.8 million, from $12.4 million at February
28, 2004 to $27.2 million at August 28, 2004, primarily due to the timing of
estimated tax payments.

Current portion of long-term debt decreased by $101.5 million, from $106.3
million at February 28, 2004 to $4.8 million at August 28, 2004, primarily due
to the repurchase in the first quarter of fiscal 2005 of the remaining $90.0
million of our 7.87% Senior Notes.

Long-term debt, less current portion increased by $10.9 million, from $463.2
million at February 28, 2004 to $474.1 million at August 28, 2004, primarily due
to borrowings on our $300 million credit facility.

Other liabilities increased by $25.6 million, from $53.7 million at February 28,
2004 to $79.3 million at August 28, 2004, primarily due to an advance payment we
received from a domestic facilities management lottery customer.

Deferred income taxes increased by $26.5 million, from $61.7 million at February
28, 2004 to $88.2 million at August 28, 2004 primarily due to deferred taxes
associated with the Spielo and LILHCo acquisitions, along with $6.6 million of
accelerated tax deductions relating to depreciation on investments in new and
existing lottery systems.

Cost of treasury shares decreased by $454.5 million, from $473.7 million at
February 28, 2004 to $19.2 million at August 28, 2004 primarily due to the
constructive retirement of 69.8 million treasury shares on July 29, 2004 (stated
on the basis reflecting the stock split which occurred subsequent to the
constructive retirement).

POTENTIAL COMMITMENTS

Master Contract with the Rhode Island Lottery

As previously reported, on May 12, 2003, we entered into a Master Contract with
the Rhode Island Lottery (the "Lottery") that amends our existing contracts with
the Lottery and grants us the right to be the exclusive provider of online,
instant ticket and video lottery central systems and services for the Lottery
during the 20-year term of the Master Contract for a $12.5 million up-front
license fee which we paid in July 2003. Under the terms of the Master Contract,
we are to invest (or cause to be invested) at least $100 million in the State of
Rhode Island, in the aggregate, by December 31, 2008. This investment commitment
includes the payment of the $12.5 million up-front license fee; the provision of
new online and video lottery related hardware, software and services; the
development of a new world headquarters facility of at least 210,000 square feet
in Providence, Rhode Island by December 31, 2006; and the making of improvements
to our existing manufacturing facility in West Greenwich, Rhode Island. We have
agreed to employ at least 1,000 people full-time in Rhode Island by the end of
calendar year 2005 and maintain that level of employment thereafter. In the
event the State of Rhode Island takes certain actions which affect our financial
performance, we will be automatically released from the employment obligation.
In addition to being released from the employment obligation, we would be
released from our obligations to invest (or cause to be invested) the $100
million, replace the online lottery gaming system, deliver certain other online
lottery deliverables and replace the video lottery central system (all to the
extent such obligations remain unperformed) and would be entitled to a refund of
a pro-rata portion of the license fee. We currently plan to satisfy our
obligation to invest (or cause to be invested) at least $100 million in the
State of Rhode Island by December 31, 2008 as follows: (i) approximately $24
million that was invested during fiscal 2004; (ii) approximately $22 million
that will be invested during fiscal 2005; (iii) approximately $44 million that
will be invested during fiscal 2006; and (iv) the balance that will be invested
during fiscal 2007. The Lottery may terminate the Master Contract in the event
that we fail to meet our obligations as stated above.

In addition, in July 2003 we entered into a tax stabilization agreement with the
City of Providence (the "City"), whereby the City agreed to stabilize the real
estate and personal property taxes payable in connection with our new world
headquarters facility in the City and the personal property associated with such
facility for 20 years. We also agreed to complete and occupy the facility by
December 31, 2006, employ 500 employees at the facility by 2009, and we made
certain commitments regarding our employment, purchasing and education
activities in the City.

In June 2004, the Rhode Island legislature voted to approve a gaming facility
development proposal and to place a question regarding such proposal before
Rhode Island voters for consideration on the November 2004 ballot. The
legislation passed by the Rhode Island legislature made no provision for us to
be a supplier of a percentage of the gaming machines in the proposed gaming
facility, as we believe is contemplated by the Master Contract. The Rhode Island
legislature overrode the Governor's veto of this legislation. Subsequently, the
Rhode Island Supreme Court ruled that the legislation and the question were
unconstitutional and a trial court ordered that the question not be placed on
the November 2004 ballot.



FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT AND DIVIDEND POLICY

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

The primary market risk inherent in our financial instruments and exposures is
the potential loss arising from adverse changes in interest rates and foreign
currency exchange rates. Our exposure to commodity price changes is not
considered material and is managed through our procurement and sales practices.
We use various techniques to manage our market risks, including from time to
time, the use of derivative instruments. We manage our exposure to counterparty
credit risk by entering into financial instruments

                                      -38-
<PAGE>

with major, financially sound counterparties with high-grade credit ratings and
by limiting exposure to any one counterparty. We do not engage in currency or
interest rate speculation.


INTEREST RATE MARKET RISK

Interest rate market risk is estimated as the potential change in the fair value
of our total debt or current earnings resulting from a hypothetical 10% adverse
change in interest rates.

The estimated fair value of our long-term debt and change in the estimated fair
value due to hypothetical changes in interest rates are as follows (dollars in
millions):

<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
                                                                   Estimated Fair Value

</TABLE>

The estimated fair values above were determined by an independent investment
banker and the values of the Senior Notes were determined after taking into
consideration $150 million of interest rate swaps. A hypothetical 10% adverse or
favorable change in interest rates applied to variable rate debt would not have
a material effect on current earnings.

We use various techniques to mitigate the risk associated with future changes in
interest rates, including entering into interest rate swaps.

EQUITY PRICE RISK

The estimated fair value of our $175 million of 1.75% Convertible Debentures and
change in the estimated fair value due to hypothetical changes in the market
price of our common stock is as follows (dollars in millions):

</TABLE>

The estimated fair values above were determined by an independent investment
banker and were based on a quoted market price of $174.25 per Debenture.


FOREIGN CURRENCY EXCHANGE RATE RISK

We are subject to foreign exchange exposures arising from current and
anticipated transactions denominated in currencies other than our functional
currency, which is United States dollars, and from the translation of foreign
currency balance sheet accounts into United States dollar balance sheet
accounts.

We seek to manage our foreign exchange risk by securing payment from our
customers in United States dollars, by sharing risk with our customers, by
utilizing foreign currency borrowings, by leading and lagging receipts and
payments, and by entering into foreign currency exchange and option contracts.
In addition, a significant portion of the costs attributable to our foreign
currency revenues are payable in the local currencies. In limited circumstances,
but whenever possible, we negotiate clauses into our contracts that allow for
price adjustments should a material change in foreign exchange rates occur.

                                      -39-
<PAGE>

From time to time, we enter into foreign currency exchange and option contracts
to reduce the exposure associated with certain firm commitments, variable
service revenues and certain assets and liabilities denominated in foreign
currencies, but we do not engage in foreign currency speculation. These
contracts generally have maturities of 12 months or less and are regularly
renewed to provide continuing coverage throughout the year. At August 28, 2004,
a hypothetical 10% adverse change in foreign exchange rates would result in a
translation loss of $22.8 million that would be recorded in the equity section
of our balance sheet.

At August 28, 2004, a hypothetical 10% adverse change in foreign exchange rates
would result in a net pre-tax transaction loss of $2.2 million that would be
recorded in current earnings after considering the effects of foreign exchange
contracts currently in place.

At August 28, 2004, a hypothetical 10% adverse change in foreign exchange rates
would result in a net reduction of cash flows from anticipatory transactions
during the remainder of fiscal 2005 of $5.4 million, after considering the
effects of foreign exchange contracts currently in place. The percentage of
fiscal 2005 anticipatory cash flows that were hedged varied throughout the first
six months of the fiscal year, but averaged 29%.

As of August 28, 2004, we had contracts for the sale of foreign currency of
approximately $51.1 million (primarily Euro and pounds sterling) and the
purchase of foreign currency of approximately $53.4 million (primarily Canadian
dollar, Brazilian real, New Taiwan dollars, pounds sterling and Mexican pesos).



DIVIDEND POLICY

We are committed to returning value to our shareholders. Beginning in the second
quarter of fiscal 2004, we commenced paying cash dividends on our common stock
of $0.085 per share, equivalent to a full-year dividend of $0.34 per share. We
currently plan to continue paying dividends in the foreseeable future.



SUBSEQUENT EVENT

BILLBIRD S.A.

In September 2004, our majority-owned subsidiary, PolCard S.A, completed the
acquisition of privately-held BillBird S.A., the leading provider of electronic
bill payment services in Poland, for an all-cash purchase price of approximately
$6.0 million. Approval of this transaction by our shareholders was not required.

Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

See "Financial Risk Management" above.



Item 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

As of the end of the period covered by this report, we carried out an
evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management,
including our Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") and our Senior Vice President and
Chief Financial Officer ("CFO"), of the effectiveness of the design and
operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15 of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Based upon that evaluation, our CEO and CFO
concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective in alerting
them on a timely basis to material information required to be included in our
periodic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting, or in
other factors, that occurred during the second quarter of fiscal 2005 that has
materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's
internal control over financial reporting.

PART II.  OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

BRAZILIAN-RELATED LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

BRAZILIAN CRIMINAL ALLEGATIONS. As previously reported, in late March 2004
federal attorneys with Brazil's Public Ministry (the "Public Ministry
Attorneys") recommended that criminal charges be brought against nine
individuals, including four senior officers of Caixa Economica Federal, the
Brazilian bank and operator of Brazil's National Lottery ("CEF"); Antonio Carlos
Rocha, the former Senior Vice President of GTECH Holdings Corporation and
President of GTECH Brazil Ltda., our Brazilian subsidiary ("GTECH Brazil"); and
Marcelo Rovai, GTECH Brazil's marketing director. No other present or former
employee of the Company or GTECH Brazil has been implicated by the Public
Ministry Attorneys. Neither the Company nor GTECH Brazil is the subject of this
criminal investigation, and under Brazilian law (which provides that criminal
charges may not be brought against corporations or other entities), we cannot be
subject to criminal charges in connection with this matter.

We understand that the Public Ministry Attorneys had recommended that Messrs.
Rocha and Rovai be charged with offering an improper inducement in connection
with the negotiation of the contract extension that we entered into in April
2003 (the "2003 Contract Extension") to our May 2000 contract with CEF to
provide lottery goods and services and additional financial transaction services
(including bill and tax payment, social security contribution and traditional
banking services) to CEF for a contract term that, as extended, was scheduled to
expire in April 2003 (the "2000 Contract"). We further understand that the
Public Ministry Attorneys had recommended that Messrs. Rocha and Rovai be
charged with effectively co-authoring or aiding and abetting certain allegedly
fraudulent or inappropriate management practices of the CEF management who
agreed to enter into the 2003 Contract Extension.

As previously reported, during the second quarter of fiscal 2005, the Company
learned that the judge reviewing these charges prior to their being filed
refused to initiate the criminal charges against the nine individuals, including
against Messrs Rocha and Rovai. The judge chose not to accept any elements of
the charges, as was his prerogative, but instead, granted a request by the
Brazilian Federal Police to continue the investigation which had been suspended
upon the recommendation of the Public Ministry Attorneys that criminal charges
be brought. The judge cited the prosecutors' rush to bring charges in response
to the pressure of public opinion as a contributing factor to his decision to
return the investigation to the Brazilian Federal Police. The judge's order
pertained to certain procedural aspects, and not to the merits, of the charges.
The Brazilian Federal Police investigation continues.

We have cooperated fully with the investigation by Brazilian authorities
respecting this matter, and have encouraged Messrs Rocha and Rovai to do the
same. In addition, we are conducting an internal investigation of this matter
under the supervision of the independent directors of

                                      -42-
<PAGE>

GTECH Holdings Corporation. While this investigation is not yet complete, we are
confident, on the basis of our findings thus far, that the Company has acted
appropriately in this matter. Furthermore, our investigation has not revealed
any reason to believe that any of our present or former employees committed any
of the criminal offenses alleged by the Public Ministry Attorneys in their
initial criminal recommendations. However, in light of the fact that the
Brazilian Federal Police investigation is continuing and its ultimate
conclusions are uncertain, there can be no assurance that the Public Ministry
Attorneys will not recommend once again that such criminal charges be brought
against Messrs. Rocha and Rovai, or that new criminal charges be brought against
Messrs. Rocha and Rovai or additional individuals.

RELATED SEC INVESTIGATION. As previously reported, the United States Securities
and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") is undertaking a formal investigation into
the Brazilian criminal allegations against Messrs. Rocha and Rovai and the
Company's involvement in this matter. In this connection, the SEC has sent the
Company a subpoena for the production of certain documents and records related
to the Company's operations in Brazil. The Company has been cooperating fully
with the SEC, including in responding to its subpoena, and other information
requests.

To date, we have found no evidence that the Company, or any of its employees,
has violated any United States law, or is otherwise guilty of any wrongdoing in
connection with this matter.

Our investigation is not complete, however, and in light of the fact that our
reputation for integrity is an important factor in our business dealings with
lottery and other governmental agencies, an allegation or finding of improper
conduct that is attributable to us could have a material adverse effect on our
business, both within Brazil and elsewhere, including our ability to retain
existing contracts or to obtain new or renewal contracts. In addition,
continuing adverse publicity resulting from any criminal charge involving the
Company or any of its present or former employees, and any resulting, or
related, legal proceedings, could have a material adverse effect on our
reputation and business.

CIVIL ACTION BY THE PUBLIC MINISTRY ATTORNEYS. As previously reported, in April
2004 the Public Ministry Attorneys initiated a civil action in the Federal Court
of Brasilia against GTECH Brazil; 17 former officers and employees of CEF; the
former president of Racimec Informatica Brasileira S.A., GTECH Brazil's
predecessor company ("Racimec"); Antonio Carlos Rocha, the former Senior Vice
President of GTECH Holdings Corporation and President of GTECH Brazil; and
Marcos Andrade, another former officer of GTECH Brazil. The focus of this civil
action is the contractual relationship between CEF, GTECH Brazil and Racimec for
the period 1994 to 2002. This civil action alleges that the defendants acted
illegally in entering into, amending and performing the January 1997 contract
between Racimec and CEF pursuant to which Racimec agreed to provide online
lottery services and technology to CEF (the "1997 Contract"), and the 2000
Contract, and seeks to invalidate the 2000 Contract, which, as extended by the
2003 Contract Extension, is still in force.

This lawsuit also seeks to impose damages equal to the sum of all amounts paid
to the Company under the 1997 Contract and the 2000 Contract and certain other
permitted amounts, minus our proven investment costs. The applicable statute
also permits the assessment of penalties, in the discretion of the court, of up
to three times the amount of the damages imposed. We estimate

                                      -43-
<PAGE>

that through the date of the lawsuit we received under the 1997 Contract and the
2000 Contract a total of 1.5 billion Brazilian reals (or approximately 500
million United States dollars). In addition, although it is unclear how
investment costs would be determined for purposes of this lawsuit, we estimate
that our investment costs through the date of the lawsuit were approximately
between 1.2 billion and 1.4 billion Brazilian reals (or approximately between
400 million and 465 million United States dollars) in aggregate; however, these
investment costs could be disputed by CEF, and are ultimately subject to
approval by the court.

As previously reported, during the second quarter of fiscal 2005 we were
formally served with the complaint filed by the Public Ministry Attorneys in
this civil action, and were afforded the opportunity to review the supporting
evidence developed by the Public Ministry Attorneys. Having completed our review
of this evidence, we remain of the view, previously reported, that we have good
and adequate defenses to the claims made in this lawsuit. We intend to defend
ourselves vigorously in these proceedings, which, we have been advised by our
Brazilian counsel, are likely to take several years, and could take as long as
10 to 15 years in certain circumstances, to litigate through the appellate
process to final judgment. It is our position that we were appropriately awarded
the 1997 Contract by CEF after a competitive procurement, and that at all times
since 1997 we have been appropriately compensated for services performed under
valid contracts with the CEF.

While we cannot rule out the possibility that the Company will ultimately be
held liable in this matter, or estimate the amount of such liability in such
event, we believe that the outcome of this lawsuit is not likely to have a
material impact on our financial statements or business.

As previously reported, during the second quarter of fiscal 2005 the Federal
Court of Brasilia granted a procedural injunction in connection with this civil
matter directing that 30% of the payments due to GTECH Brazil from CEF under the
2000 Contract be withheld and deposited into an account maintained by the Court,
which withheld amounts the Company estimates will be approximately $22 million
to $25 million as of the end of fiscal 2005. This injunction also put in place
restrictions that effectively prevent the transfer or sale of the Company's
Brazilian assets, including the share capital of GTECH Brazil, with certain
limited exceptions. The injunction also required that certain assets of the
other defendants, including bank accounts, real estate and other financial
assets, be reported to the court to prevent disposition (or in the case of bank
accounts, to monitor such accounts), and that the Brazilian Central Bank report
any transactions associated with these assets. In granting this injunction, the
judge held that, as a foreign company doing business in Brazil, we do not have
adequate in-country holdings to satisfy the potential claims should the
plaintiff prevail in this lawsuit. The court's order provides a process to
change the percentage of our payments to be withheld based upon a determination
of our effective cost of servicing the 2000 Contract. The injunction was granted
as part of a confidential ex parte proceeding in which we were not afforded an
opportunity to participate. We filed an appeal respecting the court's grant of
this injunction on July 7, 2004. We are unable at this time to predict the
outcome of our appeal of the injunction, or to provide an estimate as to the
timing of the court's decision respecting our appeal.

CEF PROCUREMENT. As previously reported, we are involved in legal proceedings
with CEF respecting the CEF's plans for the operation of Brazil's National
Lottery after expiration of the 2000 Contract, which is currently scheduled to
occur not later than May 2005.

                                      -44-
<PAGE>

In June 2003, the Federal Higher Court of Brasilia issued a decision permitting
CEF to obtain goods and services necessary to operate the National Lottery after
termination of the 2000 Contract by publishing four separate Requests For
Proposal. We previously reported our belief that this decision indicated that we
would be unlikely ultimately to prevail in our challenge to the CEF's plans for
a procurement process contemplating multiple vendors supplying lottery goods and
services to CEF after termination of the 2000 Contract (the "Multiple RFP
Procurement").

In August 2004, the Special Court of Brazil's Superior Appellate Court issued a
ruling removing the final legal impediments that had prevented CEF from
proceeding with the Multiple RFP Procurement.

While we will be the incumbent vendor with respect to any future procurement by
CEF, there can be no assurance that we will be selected by CEF to supply goods
and services after termination of the 2000 Contract.

As previously reported, CEF's President has indicated that in order to
accommodate an as-of-yet undisclosed procurement process, it is his intent to
seek to negotiate: (a) certain concessions from GTECH Brazil relating to pending
court action respecting CEF procurement matters, and (b) an extension of the
term of the 2000 Contract. Although we have requested detailed customer
specifications and requirements from CEF in respect of a possible extension
negotiation, to date we have received no such specifications or requirements
from CEF. At this time, it is impossible for us to determine the potential
scope, term or desirability of a potential contract extension beyond the
expiration of the 2000 Contract, or to predict the likely timing, if any, of
negotiations with CEF respecting such a contract extension.

In light of these uncertainties, we have disregarded all CEF revenues with
respect to periods after May 2005 for purposes of providing long-term earnings
and other future guidance, and will continue to do so until such time as we have
greater clarity on what business, if any, we may have an opportunity or desire
to pursue with CEF after the termination of the 2000 Contract.

OTHER LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

SHAREHOLDER CLASS ACTION SUIT. As previously reported, we, together with William
Y. O'Connor, our former Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Steven P. Nowick,
our former President and Chief Operating Officer, and W. Bruce Turner, our
former Chairman and current President and Chief Executive Officer, were named as
defendants in a shareholder class action suit captioned Sandra Kafenbaum and
Steven Schulman, individually and on behalf of all other similarly situated v.
GTECH Holdings Corporation, et. al., which suit was filed in the U.S. District
Court of Rhode Island in August 2000 and subsequently amended in February 2001.
In September 2002, the court granted our motion to dismiss plaintiff's claim
against Mr. Turner, holding that there were no actionable statements
attributable to him.

As previously reported, we have entered into an agreement with plaintiffs to
settle this class action lawsuit on terms that require payment by us of amounts
that, after taking into account certain insurance proceeds that we expect to
receive, are not material to our financial condition or results of operation. We
have previously fully reserved against such payments.

                                      -45-
<PAGE>

In September 2004, following a fairness hearing, the court approved the terms of
our agreement with the class action plaintiffs, as was required to finalize the
terms of settlement, and entered judgment in this matter incorporating the
agreed terms. These developments effectively close this case.
