INNOVA Announces Extension of Agreement with Missouri Lottery
JEFFERSON CITY, MO, Sept. 8, 2015 /CNW/ - INNOVA Gaming Group Inc. ("INNOVA", the "Company") (TSX: IGG), today announced that its wholly owned subsidiary, Diamond Game Enterprises ("Diamond Game"), has signed a one-year extension (the "Agreement") to its current pilot agreement with the Missouri Lottery. The Agreement enables Diamond Game to continue installing its LT-3 ticket dispenser ("LT-3") in veterans and fraternal clubs in the state and to begin installing LT-3s in a limited number of "liquor-by-the-drink" ("LBD") locations. Pursuant to the Agreement, dispensers will be installed in 100 new LBD locations. In addition, it is anticipated that dispensers will be installed in new and existing club locations.
"This Agreement builds on the successful LT-3 pilot program we commenced in November 2013 in Missouri," said Richard Weil, Chairman and CEO of INNOVA. "It represents both an extension and an expansion of the current pilot program, which to this point was run exclusively in veterans and fraternal halls. By adding LBD locations, the Missouri Lottery has offered us an opportunity to demonstrate the broad appeal of the LT-3 in non-traditional gaming venues, while bolstering revenues to small businesses, non-profits, and education in the State."
"The pilot program has been a success," added May Scheve Reardon, Executive Director, Missouri Lottery. "We expect that introduction of LT-3s into select LBD locations will build on that success. Lottery players will enjoy a fun, new product, while local businesses will benefit from increased visits by patrons, and the State's education fund will receive much-needed additional revenue."
