Adjustment month. December 2022 shows a negative or adjusted NTI (often a jackpot liability), so it's shown for the record but left out of percentile rankings.

Cycle rate is a leading indicator: when players start cycling their money fewer times, it usually shows up here before it shows up in NTI — an early read on gameset health for you and for an operator.

These are the two series a service change shows up in. Fresher titles and faster response tend to move win per unit first; hold follows the game mix. Both are your own numbers against a neutral market line — not a verdict on anyone.

This year against last, by monthDecember 2022 down 100% on a year earlier
November 2021 – December 2022Nov 2020 – December 2021

A month that looks like a collapse is often just that month. Laid over the same months a year earlier, a seasonal dip and a real decline stop looking alike.

Seasonality check: September → December moved −100% this year vs +14% a year ago — so a normal seasonal dip isn't mistaken for a real decline.

Your town's market

Lyons's total gaming income is −3% year over year (trailing 3 months vs the same 3 a year ago).

Your own gameset is −100% over the same-month-last-year comparison — the town's tide explains part of the move; it isn't all your gameset.

A deeper operator read

The same history, cut the way a Terminal Operator cuts it when they decide how hard to compete for your gameset.

Takeaways

•Each terminal earned about -$26 in December 2022. Per-terminal NTI is the number operators judge a gameset by, because it strips out how many machines you run.
•Heads-up: NTI has slipped three months running. Worth a look — it can be seasonal (check the year-ago comparison), or a sign the gameset is due for fresher titles or better service.
There's headroom in these numbers.

Operators bid on what they'd put in your gameset — newer cabinets, better titles, faster fixes. We'll turn your profile into an anonymized Listing they compete on.
