Playtech eyeing Openbet and Inspired acquisition opportunities?

News on 2 Dec 2015

According to UBS analyst, Tal Grant, Playtech may be considering acquisition bids on OpenBet and Inspired in line with a focus on strengthening its sports business.

The report in the UK Evening Standard puts a GBP 500 million price tag on both companies who are reportedly up for sale.

“While a £500 million price tag is hardly ‘bolt-on’, we note that, with the Plus500 deal now out of the picture, Playtech has excess cash (around £500 million) on the balance sheet,” Grant said.
