Fourth Consecutive U.S. Record for Scientific Games’ Scratch-Offs Partner Florida Lottery

The record week of instant game retail sales crushed the Florida Lottery’s previous U.S. record of $126,249,658 set in 2019. This year’s record week comes six months after the Lottery announced eight consecutive years of record-breaking annual sales for fiscal year 2019. The record week of instant games was processed at the Company’s Orlando facility using SciTrak™, the latest version of advanced logistics technology offered through the Scientific Games Enhanced Partnership (SGEP) with the Lottery.

The new weekly sales record week was driven by the Lottery’s new $30 The Fastest Road to $1 Million Scratch-off game, featuring 155 million dollar prizes, which topped $28 million in retail sales. Sales for all $30 games topped $39 million in the record week. Other top-sellers were a 10X®, 20X, 50x, 100X family of games at the $1, $2, $5 and $10 price point that recorded $26.7 million in sales for the week. Additionally, year-over-year sales for all $10 games grew 90% from the same week last year, led by the $50-$100-$500 Blowout! and 100X games that had combined sales of $33 million in the record week.

Instant games are an important part of the Florida Lottery’s portfolio of games, comprising about 69% of its total sales in fiscal year 2019. The Lottery participates in SGEP which provides instant game design, programming, manufacturing, inside sales, marketing, warehousing, as well as distribution and retail services to more than 13,000 Florida Lottery retailers.
