If the subject report could not be filed without unreasonable effort or expense and the registrant seeks relief pursuant to Rule 12b-25(b), the following should be completed (Check box if appropriate)

 

	(a)	The reasons described in reasonable detail in Part III of this form could not be eliminated without unreasonable effort or expense;
☒	(b)	The subject annual report, semi-annual report, transition report on Form 10-K, Form 20-F, Form 11-K, Form N-CEN or Form N-CSR, or portion thereof, will be filed on or before the fifteenth calendar day following the prescribed due date; or the subject quarterly report or transition report on Form 10-Q or subject distribution report on Form 10-D, or portion thereof, will be filed on or before the fifth calendar day following the prescribed due date; and
	(c)	The accountant’s statement or other exhibit required by Rule 12(b)-25(c) has been attached if applicable.

 

PART III — NARRATIVE

 

State below in reasonable detail the reasons why the Form 10-Q could not be filed within the prescribed time period.

 

Inspired Entertainment, Inc. (the “Company”) is unable to file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2023 (“Q2 Form 10-Q”) within the prescribed time period without unreasonable effort or expense. The Company is continuing to review the accounting for certain of its software development projects in terms of timing of when projects move from Work in Progress to Complete, at which point amortization commences. Any difference to when projects have been historically amortized would affect the Company’s total assets and net income. Depending upon the result of its review, the Company may potentially be required to restate or revise its prior financial reporting. Despite working diligently to timely file its Q2 Form 10-Q, the Company will be unable to complete all work necessary to timely file such report, including its consideration of the possible effect of such matter on its evaluation of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures. The Company expects to file its Q2 Form 10-Q with the Securities and Exchange Commission as soon as practicable, and no later than the fifth calendar day following the prescribed due date, in accordance with Rule 12b-25.
