Posted at 14/11/2007 11:00 by oneillshaun Interactive Gaming Holdings (IGH) has sold its Heathorns business to Jennings for an undisclosed sum, according to the Daily Telegraph city diary. The paper reports that Jennings has effectively come to the rescue of "several thousand" embattled Heathorns customers who had spent the best part of the summer attempting to get their money out of the now de-listed IGH. However, the report adds that the other "battered brands" of Premier Bet and Heathorns' VIP service are not included in the deal. "But when I call the administrators and IGH chairman, Tom Taule, for an update, it's back to the form book. They fail to call back (again)." |

Posted at 20/8/2007 11:09 by quinan Published: Friday, August 17, 2007 Online-Casinos.comIGH SUSPENDS TRADING Troubled sportsbook group cites financial difficulties In a move this week that several industry observers found unsurprising, the sportsbook group Interactive Gaming Holdings (IGH) has suspended trading on its shares on the London AIM, citing financial problems. In a statement explaining the decision, founder and executive chairman Thomas J. Taule, said it has become evident to the company that the GBP 400 000 of interim funding to be provided by General Capital Venture Finance Limited (see previous Online-Casinos.com/I The interim funding was needed by IGH to meet its near term working capital requirements and without it the company's financial position has become uncertain, Taule said. He added that every effort is being made to resolve the problems facing the company, which remains in discussions with GCVF and another potential funder. IGH operates the Premier Bet and Heathorns bookmaking companies, and previously raised capital from GCVF on two occasions in as many months in order to stay viable. It's been three months of turmoil for the group since its decision to relocate to the Malta jurisdiction, and the resignation of CEO John Heaton at the end of May, leaving control of the company in the hands of a board of directors composed of Taule, executive vice president Mitchell I. Petchenik and non executive director Robert Spriddell. The company listed on the London Stock Exchange AIM market in March 2004 and acquired Heathorns, claimed to be the world's oldest established bookmakers in March 2005, and subsequently relaunched its on-course betting presence in July 2005 at Newbury Racecourse. In August 2005, IGH acquired Premierbet, a fixed odds bookmaker based in London. |
Posted at 19/8/2007 20:39 by multisync 5 Woofy, you do not need to apologise for sounding negative. It looks very negative at this junction and indeed management have disappointed on some fronts. They have also achieved some milestones too, e.g. with Orbis and topline sales growth.In addition, I have seen companies like 32Red (TTR) in the same industry, mess up in a much bigger way than IGH following the acquisition of betdirect from Sportech (More info at the end) TTR are imo, finally implementing the restructuring needed to turnaround the business. And over time (1 year) the city has regained confidence in them. As regard IGH, it is also possible, but radical management changes are required (this appears to be in progress too), imo. IGH has strong potential as the topline demonstrates and gross profits too. All that is holding IGH back is the bottom line so far. We know cost have been dramatically reduced H2/07, margins increasing, and customer re-rating is currently underway. Developments currently do not inspire confidence. But things do change, if driven and brought about. I am keeping an open mind. I also suspect the AGM/EGM will be interesting (if physically voted at). IGH could very well go burst. But if that happens, it is my view that GCVF would not recover their investment. This is why I am inclined to think it is not in GCVF's best interest to withhold support having come this far. It is a sum I also suspect they can afford to right off but have no history of doing without merit. If I was GCVF, my best option at this time would be to buy the company outright and make the changes required to realize IGH's potential like TTR. Observing with interest no doubt. Info on TTR Warning Results Financial restructuring Results so far. Fell from 175p to 21p. Currently heading north at 43p. |
