Yes quite right I said close 1170p. A far cry from our
79p purchases my friend.

S

No not until 2000p maybe then.

[mylands] 18/12/2020 08:32

July 30th 2018 reached an intraday high of 1178p, so 19p to go!

[suetballs] 18/12/2020 08:26

Is a small smile appearing on srp's face?

I thought that this article was interesting for the history of the case, even if he is too dismissive of what the impact would be if Flutter had to pay the full amount.

Gvc will be massive beneficiaries from the Flutter stutter..

[coxsmn] 17/12/2020 19:07

Flutter trading at a multiple almost three times higher than Entain doesn't leave much room for error.

[italianofacile] 17/12/2020 18:09

Commented a while back that the trade Sell Flutter Buy GVC will be in vogue soon.. Given the very recent shock statement by Flutter RNS re Kentucky that may well be tomorrow..

[italianofacile] 17/12/2020 17:07

Make that 4th best ever close in the history of Company...tomorrow best ever?

Yes I bought 100p too and up, the 79p was intraday,
that next year I got a 50p dividend on it too.

No wonder I win so many awards.

I'm thinking we will hit £12.50 before Xmas.

[coxsmn] 17/12/2020 14:54

Amazing you bought at 79p, lowest price in the 16 year history.

My lowest was £1, should have bought more.

srp 50% higher will do me.
Bought my initial holding in March 2019 when the share price was mid £5.
Not sure why I did but 2021 could be explosive here.

Excellent deal, I love the innovation in these deals, like the deal with Buffalo Redwings, there are many great ways to grow the brand and to stand out.

[srpactive] 17/12/2020 12:20

Yes a super rns we are a world leading technology company
in the UK and on the ftse, lets hope the UK fund managers
and city support this kind of company as the silicon valley
does.

We should be minimum 50% higher.

ENTAIN AND VERIZON MEDIA ANNOUNCE GLOBAL INNOVATION ALLIANCE FOR IMMERSIVE TECHNOLOGY, GAMING AND SPORTS -

Entain plc (LSE: ENT), the international sports-betting and gaming operator (formerly known as GVC Holdings) and Verizon Media, the global media and technology company, today announced a global innovation alliance to develop new opportunities across interactive sports and entertainment. Entain brands include Ladbrokes, bwin, partypoker, and BetMGM in the United States, which is co-owned with MGM Resorts.

The new alliance coincides with initial findings from new research for Entain by YouGov, revealing that the use of technology is increasingly shaping consumer behaviours in gaming and entertainment around the world, notably in the United States and Australia. Social media has become central to consumer enjoyment, with new immersive experiences, driven by virtual reality and 5G, accelerating growth of both gaming and e-sports.

Entain and Verizon Media will collaborate to develop a first-of-its-kind highly immersive proof of concept virtual reality experience, that will combine live sports viewing with interactive layers of sports data and gaming. Consumers will be able to participate in sports events, check data, socialise with friends, and place bets on Entain platforms.

Additionally, Entain will work closely with Verizon Media to develop concepts for new formats with emerging technologies like 5G, virtual reality, and augmented reality to bring the best experiences in immersive content and gaming to sports betting and gambling. Along with betting on the Entain platforms on live streaming sports events, the goal is to create realistic, immersive experiences for sports fans, such as being in the stadium, participating in play, competing and betting on outcomes on the Entain platforms.

"To win in the future we need to understand where consumers will be in five, ten years' time and work with other global businesses also investing in that," said Shay Segev, CEO of Entain. "We envisage consumers meeting at a game with friends, who could in fact be elsewhere, using virtual reality headsets to watch, interact and share the experience together and, potentially, compete between themselves at half time or feel like they're on the pitch with the players."

"This new alliance takes the collaboration between our two companies to a new level and will allow us both to maximize new opportunities across sports-betting, content and entertainment," said Guru Gowrappan, CEO, Verizon Media. "Together, we are building the next-generation of content experiences for sports and gaming fans. Our world-first 5G-enabled production studios in LA and London, creative technology teams and Verizon Media's Immersive platform, that enables extended reality (XR) content to be created and distributed across digital channels at scale, allow partners like Entain to bring next-level immersive and interactive experiences to their customers."

The collaboration builds on an existing successful relationship between Yahoo Sports, part of Verizon Media, and BetMGM, a joint venture with MGM Resorts through which Entain operates in the United States. BetMGM is integrated throughout Yahoo Sports in the US, and in legal jurisdictions fans can place a bet with BetMGM without leaving the Yahoo Sports app.

The new alliance coincides with first findings of new research for Entain from YouGov, revealing that gaming and entertainment is converging across multiple devices and becoming increasingly interactive, with two-thirds of consumers combining it with social media to increase their enjoyment.

Across all markets, men aged 25 to 39 are the most likely to be innovators or early adopters and are the key audience for e-sports and gaming. Half of e-sports players are in this age group, with most also interacting in social media and more than half enjoying a bet. When it comes to conventional sport, interaction is also increasingly important to this audience, with 31% of 25 to 39-year-old and 34% of over 55's also engaging digitally to increase their enjoyment of watching sport.

Good £20 ps valuation a bit better than £14 ps.

£20 valuation, same number KA was predicting.

[wilco69] 17/12/2020 08:51

Jefferies have Entain as 1 of their 21 stocks for 2021.

What is our call? We are buyers of Entain’s US sports betting and iGaming growth prospects, Entain’s new priority focus.
Where are we different? We think that the market has not yet recognised the upside potential and momentum in Entain’s joint venture with MGM in the US, BetMGM. We also see clarity around UK regulation as a positive re-rating catalyst.
Why do we have conviction? 1) We are seeing more US states legalise sports betting, more quickly than expected, with iGaming to follow; 2) We forecast underlying double- digit Online growth, even after 19 consecutive quarters; 3) Clarity on regulation in Germany resulted in a positive re-rating, we argue the same playbook for UK regulation.
Valuation: Our PT is DCF-derived both for the core business (£12.00: WACC 9.8%, medium-term growth rate 6%, terminal growth rate 2%) and the US (£2.50: 15% market share of $19bn TAM by 2025). Taking the valuation of US-listed sports betting peer DraftKings implies a £20.25 valuation for Entain.
Signposts: BetMGM’s market share in newly regulated sports betting states in the US, more US states legalising sports betting and iGaming.
