Introduction & Bacl~ground

Purpose of Report
Constitutional Amendment Proposed
Proper Use of Lottery funds Defined
Voters Approve Lottery
First Lottery Operations

The purpose of this report is to provide a financial overview of The Georgia Lottery from the time of approval by the voters in November 1992 to the end of the 1996 fiscal year which occurred on June 30, 1996. This report is not a detailed study of the lottery nor is it an audit or review of the lottery program.
The 1991 Session of the General Assembly of Georgia passed House Resolution Number 7 which proposed an amendment to the Constitution of the State of Georgia. This amendment, if approved by the citizens of Georgia, would provide operating authority for a State Lottery. The resolution was signed by the Governor on April 17, 1991 and the proposed amendment appeared on the general election ballot in November 1992.
In the 1992 Session of the General Assembly, an act was passed which set forth the principles for operation of a lottery and defined the proper use of funds derived from the lottery. This act stated that
"net proceeds of lottery games ... shall be used to support improvements and enhancements for educational purposes and that sudl net proceeds shall be used to supplement, not supplant, existing resources for educational purposes and programs."
The act was signed by the Governor on May 7, 1992 and would become effective only upon voter approval of the Lottery amendment.
On November 2, 1992, there were 1,146,349 citizens (52.17% of those voting) who voted for the amendment and 1,050,674 citizens (47.62%) who voted against the amendment. The approval of the amendment provided the authority for the Governor to start a lottery operation in Georgia.
Immediately after approval of the amendment the Georgia Lottery Corporation was established, a Chief Executive Officer was hired and the Lottery began its operations. The first lottery tickets were offered for sale on June 29, 1993 and consisted of two instant games. In the two days of the 1993 state fiscal year, net tickets sales were L8.6 million dollars. In each of the three succeeding fiscal years, tickets sales have exceeded one billion

dollars and have increased each year. Also the number and diversity of lottery games has expanded. The scratch-off instant games continue to be popular with lottery players as they account for 34 percent of net tickets sales. On-line ticket games have been added and have proven to be more popular. A "Cash 3" daily drawing began in August 1993, a

How Financial Information Aggregated
"The Georgia Lottery" Defined

weekly "Lotto Georgia" drawing began in September 1993, "Fantasy Five" drawings began in November 1994 and a weekly multi-state "Powerball" drawing began in June 1995. During the 1996 fiscal year "Quick Cash" drawings were added. (Note: Subsequent to June 30, 1996, the Georgia Lottery Corporation ended its affiliation with the multi-state Powerball lotto drawing and has affiliated with "The Big Game" multi-state lotto drawing.)
Financial activities associated with the lottery in Georgia take place in numerous agencies of the State. The summary financial information presented in this report was obtained by extracting lottery related financial information from each state agency having financial activity associated with lottery funds. This financial information was then aggregated into this report which reflects all lottery financial activity.
The term "The Georgia Lottery" as used in this report includes all financial activity of the Georgia Lottery Corporation, that financial activity of the Office of Treasury and Fiscal Services related to Lottery funds, and that financial activity of State agencies appropriated Lottery funds for specific purposes. The purposes and extent of funding for each purpose is determined by the Governor and the General Assembly of Georgia. The individual agencies involved in either the receipting, safeguarding and/or disbursing of Lottery funds for the State are as follows:
Georgia Lottery Corporation This state corporation was created specifically to perform the various aspects of operating and managing a state lottery. The Corporation was created by an act of the General Assembly of Georgia and was given operating authority by the citizens of Georgia. Activities of the Corporation are directed by a seven member board of directors appOinted by the Governor and confirmed by the Senate.
State of Georgia Office of Treasury and Fiscal Services (OTFS) This agency, often referred to in this report as the State Treasury, receives the net proceeds from The Georgia Lottery Corporation. OTFS, as required by law, maintains a separate account, the "Lottery for Education" account, into which net lottery proceeds are depOSited and maintained. These net proceeds along with their earnings are transferred to the respective state agencies based on appropriations made by the Georgia General Assembly.
Agencies of the State of Georgia Receiving Lottery Appropriations State agencies having educational responSibilities may receive appropriations of Lottery for Education funds made by the General Assembly and are responsible for expending lottery funds in accordance with applicable provisions of State law. Agencies of the State which have received Lottery for Education appropriations are as follows: Department of Education Georgia Student Finance Commission University System of Georgia Department of Technical and Adult Education Office of the Governor

Sources of Information Modifications of Financial Data
Definition of Terms Used in Report

(Note: The 1996 General Assembry approved the "Education Reform Act of 1996" [Georgia Laws 1996, page 167] which created a department of state government known as
the Office of School Readiness. The responsibility for receiving and administering Lottery
for Education appropriations associated with the voluntary pre-kindergarten program was
assigned this new department. These were previousry responsibilities of the Department of
Education. )

Financial information was obtained primarily from State of Georgia Comprehensive Annual Financial Reports, from audit reports of the Georgia Lottery Corporation, the Office of Treasury and Fiscal Services, various state agencies mentioned in this report, and from appropriation acts enacted by the General Assembly of Georgia.

The financial information in this summary report has been modified from that appearing in the State of Georgia Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR) in the following ways:

1.

The Georgia Lottery Corporation, a component unit of the State of Georgia,

appears in the CAFR as a proprietary fund. In this report, certain financial

information of the Georgia Lottery Corporation as included in the proprietary

fund has been combined with financial information derived from governmental

fund type financial statements of state agencies responsible for the administration

of lottery funds. Although this presentation is not in accordance with generally

accepted accounting principles, this presentation provides useful and relevant

information about the Georgia Lottery.

2.

Appropriation categories have been modified to emphasize the agencies to which

funds were appropriated by the Georgia General Assembly rather than functional

expenditure categories as shown in the CAFR.

3.

In reporting the utilization of Lottery funds, appropriations made by the General

Assembly have been reported with expenses which is a presentation not in

accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

The definitions of certain terminology concerning lottery operations is helpful in understanding the financial information presented in this report. Concepts such as lottery ticket sales, lottery proceeds, net lottery proceeds, operating expenses, retailing expenses and administrative expenses are among these terms and are defined on page 12 of this report.

The Georgia Lottery

Lottery Ticket Sales Interest Earnings on Lottery Funds
Prizes Paid
Deposits into State Treasury
Lottery Reserves Required by State Law

Lottery tickets sales have exceeded four billion dollars in just over three years of lottery operations. Of that amount, 86 percent has either been paid back to lottery ticket purchasers or transferred to the State Treasury to be used for education purposes.
The large sums of money raised by The Georgia Lottery which are not immediately expended are invested to the maximum extent possible and earn interest at three different points. First, interest earned by the Georgia Lottery Corporation ($16,307,000) on its available monies is considered part of net lottery proceeds and is transferred to the State Treasury. Second, monies deposited in the Lottery for Education account in the State Treasury awaiting appropriation and subsequent transfer to the designated agencies earns interest ($29,478,976) that is required by law to be kept and maintained as Lottery for Education funds. Third, funds drawn quarterly by the Georgia Student Finance Commission for the HOPE and other scholarship programs also earn interest ($1,724,834) while on deposit with the Commission and awaiting disbursement. This interest reduces funds drawn on appropriation allotments and therefore is not included in the interest income shown on page 5.
Georgia Law provides that as nearly as practical, at least 45 percent of the amount of money from the actual sale of lottery tickets should be made available as prize money. Through June 30, 1996, prizes amounted to over 51 percent of lottery ticket sales (50.2% of total income).
Georgia Law also provides that as nearly as practical, net proceeds shall equal at least 35 percent of the Georgia Lottery Corporation's lottery proceeds. Net proceeds are required to be transferred to the State Treasury quarterly. (A special provision of the law provides that for the first two full fiscal years of Lottery operations and any partial fiscal year of Lottery operations net proceeds may be 30 percent of lottery proceeds. This provision applied to fiscal years 1993, 1994, and 1995.) From inception to June 30, 1996, the Lottery Corporation transferred $1,406,296,914 to the State Treasury in net lottery proceeds. This amounts to just under 35 percent (34.92%) of lottery proceeds.
Georgia Laws also established two reserves in the State Treasury to provide contingency funding for the various lottery programs. These reserves can be drawn upon to meet any deficiencies should lottery revenues decrease to the extent that net proceeds were insufficient to meet amounts appropriated for the various lottery programs. These reserves are:
Shortfall Reserve - An amount equal to 10 percent of the total amount of net lottery proceeds deposited into the Lottery for Education account for the preceding year is maintained as a Shortfall Reserve subaccount.
Scholarship Shortfall Reserve - An amount equal to 10 percent of the total amount of net lottery proceeds disbursed during the preceding fiscal year in the form of s.cholarships and grants for higher education is deposited into a Scholarship Shortfall Reserve subaccount until such amount equals 50 percent of such sum.

Utilization of Lottery Income

Categories of Utilization of Lottery Income

On page 5, income from the Georgia Lottery has been separated into three categories of utilization: Georgia Lottery Corporation Expenses, Lottery Appropriations, and Funds Remaining at June 30, 1996. In the chart below, these three categories are further broken down into seven categories as explained below:

1.

Georgia Lottery Corporation Expenses are shown as prizes, retailing expenses,

and administrative expenses;

2.

Lottery Appropriations to the various agencies as reported on page 5 are shown

on this chart by the program for which appropriations were made. In the chart

below, Pre-Kindergarten for 4-year-olds and HOPE Financial Aid, the largest

programs, are shown individually. All other lottery funded programs have been

combined into one category; and

3.

Funds Remaining at June 30 1996 are shown as Unexpended Lottery Balances

and Reserves which are amounts awaiting expensing or appropriation.

Top Six Lottery Appropriations

Top Six Lottery Appropriations

The following list identifies the top six programs, as defined by budget object classes, to which appropriations were made by the General Assembly from the Lottery for Education account in the 1994, 1995 and 1996 state fiscal years and the total amount appropriated to each program (budget object class):
1. Pre-IGndergarten for 4-year-olds - $292,341,845 - A voluntary program offered by school systems and private providers designed to give 4-year-olds developmentally appropriate programs to enable them to begin kindergarten ready to learn.
2. HOPE Financial Aid - $207,569,920 - HOPE, which stands for Helping Outstanding Pupils Educationally, is a unique scholarship program that rewards students' efforts with financial assistance in degree, diploma, or certificate programs at any eligible Georgia public or private college, university or technical institute. Grants generally cover the cost of tuition, mandatory fees and provide a book allowance. The first program included family income limitation requirements but current programs provide financial aid earned solely on academic accomplishment and achievement.
3. Capital Outlay - $158,707,678 - Appropriations made to the Department of Education, the University System of Georgia, and the Department of Technical and Adult Education for capital outlay projects for local school districts, public colleges and universities, and state technical institutes, respectively.
4. Georgia Research Alliance - $64,047,653 - This alliance, a partnership between the State's research universities, the business community and state government, was formed in 1990 to create economic development within the state of Georgia by developing and leveraging the research capabilities of the research universities within the state. Participating universities include four state supported institutions; Georgia Institute of Technology, University of Georgia, Georgia State University, and The Medical College of Georgia, and two private institutions; Clark Atlanta University and Emory University. Appropriations in the budget unit object class are for Alliance authorized projects. Funds flow directly from the Regents to the authorized institution and do not flow through the Alliance.
5. Tuition Equalization Grants - $62,311,982 - These are grants of $1,500 per academic year made to Georgia residents who are full-time students at private colleges and universities within Georgia. (Grants to freshmen increased to $3,000 in state fiscal year 1997 and require a "B" average to maintain the grant.) These grants may be received in addition to HOPE Financial Aid.
6. Equipment, Technology and Construction Trust Fund - $55,021,347 - This fund was created by the General Assembly and is funded by lottery appropriations which were Originally required to be matched by sponsored and/or private contributions for the purpose of purchasing needed equipment at state supported colleges and universities under the Board of Regents. The requirement that these funds be used to match sponsored and/or private contributions was deleted from the 1996 appropriations act.

Education Appropriations as a Percentage of Total Appropriations

Uses of Lottery Funds
Education Purposes Defined
Education Appropriations Constant

Each state with a lottery operation has to decide how funds derived from lottery operations will be used. Net proceeds (profits) from Georgia's lottery, by state law, fund only education programs that do not supplant funding for previous education programs. The chart below reflects the percentage that appropriations for education purposes (excluding lottery funds and debt service payments) are of the total appropriation of state funds (excluding lottery funds and debt service payments) for the past 7 state fiscal years plus the current fiscal year (1997). This period covers 4 fiscal years (1990 - 1993) prior to lottery operations and 4 fiscal years (1994 - 1997) in which there were appropriations of Lottery for Education funds.

For purposes of this report, appropriations for education purposes are defined as those appropriations made to the following agencies of the state:

Department of Education University System of Georgia Department of Technical and Adult EdUCation Georgia Student Finance Commission Teachers' Retirement System of Georgia Public School Employees Retirement System of Georgia

Based on the percentages used in Chart 1 below, education appropriations in the 1997 original appropriation act are at least at the same percentage of total appropriations as were education appropriations at the beginning of the decade. These percentages do not include Lottery for Education appropriations or appropriations for debt service.

Growth in State Appropriations
Increase in Both Education and Non-Education Appropriations

This fairly constant level of education funding (from non-lottery resources) has taken place during a period when total state appropriations increased dramatically. As indicated in Chart 2 below, state appropriations have increased from slightly over 7 billion dollars in fiscal years 1990, 1991, and 1992 to nearly II billion dollars in the 1997 fiscal year.
