SciGames Lands Pubs Deal

19 November 2008

Scientific Games Corporation has won a contract to supply Marston's Pub Co., a United Kingdom pub retailer, with a package that includes skill-with-prize and amusement-with-prize server-based gaming machines.

Scientific Games, which trades on Nasdaq, said that as part of the deal, it will supply venue management, product promotion and customer training in addition to content management, distribution and remote maintenance services.

The agreement, inked after a trial period, sees 578 machines rolled out across 200 of Marston's venues.

"Leisure machine revenue is still an integral part of our business," James Coxon, leisure machine executive with Marston's, said in a prepared statement.
