Our commitment to improving the player experience led to our seventh consecutive annual sales record, and our third straight year in excess of $2 billion. As the Lottery introduced new games and took advantage of social networking outlets like Twitter and Facebook, we allowed players to Have a Ball like never before. Our players responded by purchasing 102,491,802 winning tickets and claiming more than $1.1 billion in prizes. As a result, the Lottery achieved its highest single-year revenue total since our inception in 1974. We have audited the financial statements of the State Lottery Fund of the State of Illinois, Department of Revenue - Illinois Lottery (Department), as of and for the month and for the year ended June 30, 2009, and have issued our report thereon dated December 30, 2009. | | | | Date Created: | 08 11 2010 | | | | Agency ID: | | | | | ISL ID: | 000000028964 Original UID: 13431 FIRST WORD: Annual | |
