Evolution Fined $150,000 by Pennsylvania Regulator Over Footage Collection Failure

While live cameras remained operational at 14 tables, a computer server failure meant the footage was not collected and saved as mandated by the PA Gaming Act.

Evolution has been hit with a $25,000 fine by the Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board (PGCB) for failing to collect and save footage from 14 live dealer tables.

While live cameras remained operational at the tables, a computer server failure meant the footage was not collected and saved as mandated by the PA Gaming Act.

The fine follows a separate $7,500 penalty imposed by the Pennsylvania regulator against Evolution in August, relating to a security breach at its Philadelphia studio.

This came after an unidentified male was able to enter various areas in the Evolution studio suite including a dressing area for employees.

The enforcement comes as the gaming supplier continues to experience rapid growth in the US, recording an 18.5% revenue increase in Q3 2024.

During the earnings call, chief executive Martin Carlesund reported that the company has continued the step-by-step expansion of its live casino portfolio in North America.

He said: “During the quarter, we have added new games like Crazy Coin Flip, Super Sic Bo, Video Poker and Crazy Time in several states.

“Those releases bit by bit enhances the player experience and satisfaction in North America and we see good pickup on new games in North America.”

Carlesund also outlined the business intended to launch Ezugi as a stand-alone brand outside New Jersey.

This, he argued, would further work to broaden its offering to operators in the US, and is part of the company’s North American expansion.
