The offer in its entirety is worth an implied equity value of AU$360m (US$230m), which will include AU$260m (US$166m) in cash.<\/p>\n<p>This compares to a bid from MIXI worth AU$352m (US$225m), which Betr plans to use all its shares to vote against.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>a transaction would create great scale in the Australian market and also unlock significant synergy<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Betr, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vegasslotsonline.com\/news\/2024\/04\/11\/betr-and-bluebet-to-merge-to-compete-with-the-australian-betting-market-giants\/\">which merged with BlueBet last year<\/a>, believes a transaction would create great scale in the Australian market and also unlock significant synergy opportunities.<\/p>\n<p>Its first offer was underwhelming, with PointsBet outlining its concerns in a letter to shareholders at the beginning of April. One of the big problems was doubts over Betr\u2019s ability to finance the transaction and it recommended MIXI\u2019s offer as a result.<\/p>\n<p>The operator has since organized an AU$120m (US$77m) financing facility with the National Australia Bank and received an offer from Seminole Hard Rock Digital, which operates Hard Rock Bet in eight US states, to buy PointsBet\u2019s Canadian business for about AU$30m (US$19m). While <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vegasslotsonline.com\/news\/2024\/04\/08\/fanatics-completes-pointsbet-acquisition-for-225m\/\">PointsBet sold its US assets in April 2024 to Fanatics for US$225m<\/a>, it held onto its presence in Ontario.<\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vegasslotsonline.com\/news\/2025\/04\/30\/betr-ups-pointsbet-offer-and-proposes-selling-canadian-arm-to-hard-rock-digital-for-au30m\/\">Betr Ups PointsBet Offer and Proposes Selling Canadian Arm to Hard Rock Digital for AU$30m<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vegasslotsonline.com\/news\">Vegas Slots Online News<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The post Betr Ups PointsBet Offer and Proposes Selling Canadian Arm to Hard Rock Digital for AU$30m appeared first on Vegas Slots Online News.
