Broke below 3 year low. Decided to cut losses and run. We'll see how it pans out. Happy to cut and move on

I smell a TO soon - feels like a new round will kick off soon given the speed of the US opening

[bulltradept] 28/3/2019 10:51

The IC has this as a hold. Surely not it should be a buy surely?

No-one will give GVC the firepower to take out 888 in 2019. After the director share sale everyone will want to see at least the H1 accounts - more likely full year.

No way would 888 shareholders accept GVC paper.

[amadeus888] 23/3/2019 16:36

Dividend Yield of 7.5%

deanowls - i see one of two things happening, GVC take 888 out or 888 take a decent size company like LeoVegas.

[deanowls] 19/3/2019 04:01

Yeah the fine last year showed that didn’t it. I hold both and believe gvc will take out 888 at some stage.

[podgyted] 18/3/2019 18:37

888 are smashing GVC on corporate governance.

[deanowls] 16/3/2019 08:37

Gvc are smashing them on poker and bingo.

Decent enough results, What's interesting is that online gaming is forecast to increase by nearly 50% over the next 4 years.
Doesn't matter what restrictions governments put in people will still gamble.
Not many industries can hope for even half that growth over 4 years.
Load up on these online companies whilst you can because prices won't be so low again as this year.

[podgyted] 12/3/2019 08:21

At moment market seems to like the results. Outlook on sales in Q1 (up 10%) doesn't seem to tie-in with broker forecasts showing a a reduction.

Cheeky marketing stunt by 888, they now get a ton of UK players on top of this deal for free.

[oohrogerpalmer] 06/3/2019 19:29

That's better, should restore some faith in the industry especially as its getting battered from all sides at the moment.

I am happy 888 just cherry picked what they wanted without getting sucked into a bigger spend

[oneillshaun] 06/3/2019 09:20

make no sense not to buy the customer base, would have been a nice chunk of UK sports book players.

[trentendboy] 06/3/2019 08:14

InterestingYou would think the customer base would be worth something

[oohrogerpalmer] 05/3/2019 22:36

Wont do the betting industry any good especially 888.
Can't believe that bets already on the books were not addressed.
888 must have known this would happen and it reflects badly.

[bor491] 25/2/2019 11:52

btw the main products of 888 is not sports betting but online casinos but some poker/bingo. So yes they are impacted by the US Dept opinion on gaming I'm afraid...!
