The indicated sum will be transferred from Ellmount Gaming to GIG over the next four years, with a starting date in March 2020.
Highroller Casino sale was reasonable both for GIG and Ellmount
The sale of Highroller Casino is a reasonable step for its former owner, according to the online gambling sites in the UK. GIG reported that its main target now is to concentrate on the following gambling platforms: Rizk, Guts, Kaboo.com and Thrills.com. Currently, the company’s number-one target is Rizk as GIG plans to make it Tier 1 casino operator in select markets. Rizk possesses 71% of GiG’s B2C revenue. Its second-largest brand, Guts, will be later developed as sports betting brand.
Highroller Casino sale will give GIG a benefit of a solid financial flow and a strong B2B partner. In Ellmount Gaming’s turn, it had received a profitable brand, which Highroller definitely is. From January till June 2019, the casino has contributed revenue of €1.4 million with an EBITDA of €-0.2 million. The brand could earn even more if GIG decided to focus on Highroller rather than Rizk.
