Fortuna to acquire gaming systems provider

Central European online and land gambling group Fortuna Entertainment has announced an acquisition deal that will see it take over gaming systems provider Hattrick Sports for an undisclosed consideration.

Fortuna management said in a statement Thursday that the acquisition will boost its position as one of the largest licensed multi-channel operators in the European region, and includes Hattrick’s Romanian betting subsidiary Casa Pariurilor.

Other subsidiaries enabling expansion into Croatia and Spain include bookmaker Prva Sportska Kladionica PSK and an interest in Spain’s Luckia gambling enterprise.

Commenting on the deal, Fortuna CEO Per Widerström, said:

“The acquisition of Hattrick Sports Group is a key milestone in Fortuna Entertainment Group’s plans of becoming ‘The No.1 licensed multichannel betting and gaming operator in Central and Eastern Europe’ as well as a testament for our value creation strategy.

“Our intention is to retain the Fortuna and Casa Pariurilor brands in Romania as well as PSK and Hattrick in Croatia. On a regional level, we will combine the best of both companies with the aim to create more exciting offers for our customers, better opportunities for our employees and business partners, thus increasing value for our shareholders”.
