LAS VEGAS--(Business Wire)--
Bally Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: BYI), a leader in slots, video machines, and
casino-management systems for the global gaming industry, today announced an
agreement with Sociedade de Jogos de Macau S.A. (SJM), Macau`s largest
multi-casino operator, to provide a broad range of casino management, table
management, and bonusing products.
The agreement follows Bally`s successful systems implementation at SJM`s new
L`Arc Macau Casino Resort, which opened in late September. Under the terms of
the new three-year master purchase and license agreement, Bally will provide
comprehensive technology solutions to SJM`s new Oceanus casino, which is slated
to open in December 2009, as well as SJM`s slot lounges at the Yat Yuen
Canidrome and the Macau Jockey Club, which will implement the Bally solutions by
May 30, 2010.
In addition to these four properties, the new agreement provides SJM with the
option to expand Bally`s technology solutions at any time to any of its 16 other
properties throughout the Macau Peninsula and Taipa Island.
"We are honored to have been selected after a very aggressive evaluation process
to be SJM`s technology partner of choice for these three properties," said
Bally`s Chief Executive Officer Richard Haddrill. "SJM joins our other valued
customers and partners in Asia-Pacific, where Bally`s games and systems
technology is helping casinos drive additional revenue, attract and reward
players, and gain operational efficiencies."
