This class action seeks to recover damages against Defendants for alleged violations of the federal securities laws under the Securities Exchange Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

The Complaint alleges that theAugust 2018 SPO Materials and March 2019 SPO Materials(the "Offering Materials"), as well as Class Period statements made by the Company and its executives, repeatedly touted PlayAGS' purported competitive strengths and key growth strategies. These growth strategies included the optimization of the Company's older, underperforming EGMs with newer, more profitable EGMs, as well as the placement of new EGMs within its existing markets. Additionally, the Offering Materials, as well as the Company's Class Period reporting with the SEC, attested to the accuracy of the Company's internal controls over financial reporting.

The Complaint alleges that throughout the Class Period, Defendants made materially false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) PlayAGS was experiencing challenges in its business in Oklahoma; (2) as a result, the Companys recurring revenue would be negatively impacted; (3) PlayAGS was experiencing challenges in its Interactive business segment, including delays in securing regulatory approvals and relevant licenses; (4) as a result of the foregoing, PlayAGS was reasonably likely to record a goodwill impairment; and (5) as a result, defendants statements about the Companys business, operations, and prospects, were materially false and misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis at all relevant times. When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages.
