The £424m proposed acquisition of the William Hill Online (WHO) minority comes hard on the heels of the £460m acquisition of Sportingbet#8217;s Australian and Spanish businesses (due to complete on 19 March). Together, they significantly augment the medium-term prospects for William Hill#8217;s online business, particularly internationally. The price agreed with Playtech for the 29% minority was well in line with analyst expectations and the associated rights issue (£375m net, fully underwritten) slightly more than expected, giving plenty of firepower for further bolt-on deals. The news was accompanied by an excellent...

There has been a misunderstanding in that NetPlay haven’t moved out of the mobile sector. They are actually very much involved and uniquely positioned to take advantage of the growth in mobile with more than 13% of their players playing on iPhone. I believe the ‘Lucky Numbers’ and ‘Grab-a-Grand’, although mobile products, were part of the mobile skill gaming sector which were heavily regulated by PPP.

Charles Butler on a winning run at Netplay TV

Ben Hobson published:
When Charles Butler took on the role of chief executive at Netplay TV (LON:NPT) last November he was immediately faced with turning around the fortunes of the interactive gaming group. In 10 years on London’s Alternative Investment Market Netplay TV has evolved from selling telephone and online information services to establishing a niche position in the UK’s gambling sector. In its first set of half-year results since Butler’s appointment, the company moved back in to profitability and is now eyeing opportunities to expand through mobile gaming and into international markets.For Butler...
