Honolulu Mayor Signs New Laws Targeting Illegal Game Rooms

Last Thursday, Honolulu Mayor Rick Blangiardi signed into law three bills — Bills 11, 12 and 13 — each of which are related to illegal gambling in the county.
The first, Bill 11, sets requirements on “electronic amusement devices” in public establishments. Operators of the establishment are now required to obtain a permit from the Honolulu Police Chief to use such a device on the premises, or else forfeit the device.
The Police Chief could deny a permit application if the proposed location of the device “would be reasonably likely to result in an increase in criminal activity, vandalism, litter, noise or traffic congestion,” according to the bill. The bill also requires anyone with a permit to allow a police officer to enter the premises and inspect the device and other records.
Meanwhile, Bill 12 allows the Honolulu Department of Planning and Permitting to deny permit applications for properties that have been cited for a gambling-related public nuisance within the previous two years.
And Bill 13 allows landlords to request a police escort while inspecting a private property for nuisance claims, with the accompanying officers authorized to document law violations or unsafe conditions, and to warn people not authorized to be there to leave.
In tandem, the three bills are meant to clamp down on illicit gambling rooms, which often become hotspots for associated complaints of criminal behavior.

FDJ UNITED Sets Ambitious Sustainability Objectives and Strategies for 2028

FDJ UNITED, a leader in betting and gaming in Europe, has held its Investor Day to present its operational, ESG and financial goals under its “Play Forward 2028” strategic plan.
Stéphane Pallez, Chairwoman and CEO of FDJ UNITED, said: “FDJ UNITED has undergone a considerable transformation since its IPO, with financial and non-financial performance underscoring the success of our strategy for sustainable, profitable growth. 2025 is a pivotal year for the Group, with the consolidation of Kindred, the benefits of which are reflected in our ‘Play Forward 2028’ strategic plan. This plan opens a new chapter in our transformation, with the ambition of asserting our position as Europe’s leading responsible betting and gaming operator, based on a more diversified, more digital and more international business portfolio. ‘Play Forward 2028’ aims to continue to create value for our shareholders and all our stakeholders.”
FDJ UNITED Continues to Pursue Sustainable Value Creation
The Group’s performance in 2019-2024 demonstrated the relevance of its strategy, notably focused on expanding its digital and international presence, while maintaining solid business momentum at its points of sale in France.
As a result, the Group’s international presence now accounts for around 26% of its revenue, compared with 3% in 2019, and the share of digital revenue has risen from 5% to 35% over the period.
Between 2019 and 2024, through a combination of organic growth and acquisitions, FDJ UNITED’s revenue increased by a factor of 1.8, to €3.8 billion,2 with average annual organic growth of over 5%. recurring EBITDA has increased by a factor of 2.3, to €964 million,2 equating to a recurring EBITDA margin that rose by nearly 500 basis points to over 25% in 2024.
This high level of profitability can be explained both by the operating leverage of FDJ UNITED’s businesses and by the performance-driven culture intrinsic to the Group.
Guidance for 2025 Confirmed
Taking into account the strong performance achieved in 2024, the impact in 2025 of the sharp increase in taxes on betting and gaming in France and the Netherlands as well as the stricter implementation of regulations in major markets, FDJ UNITED expects to see revenue remain stable over the financial year, compared to 2024 pro forma, and a recurring EBITDA margin of over 24%.
Solid Targets for 2028
Over the period 2025-2028, FDJ UNITED aims to assert its leadership in Europe as a responsible lottery, gaming and betting operator and expects to see:
• Average annual organic revenue growth of around 5%.
• Recurring EBITDA margin of over 26% by 2028.
Margin growth is driven by the operating leverage generated by business growth combined with the efficiency measures taken by FDJ UNITED, for a total impact over the 2025-2028 period of more than €120 million, more than half of which is attributable to the Online betting and gaming BU and nearly 40% to the French lottery and retail sports betting BU.
The Group will benefit from its past and future investments in the use of data and artificial intelligence to further improve the gaming range and player experience in a responsible manner.
• Recurring EBITDA to free cash flow conversion rate remaining above 80%.
• Cumulative capital expenditure of between €650 and €700 million, equating to an annual amount towards the lower end of the Group’s historical range of 4% to 5% of revenue.
• Net debt to recurring EBITDA ratio less than or equal to 2x, with Investment-Grade debt.
An Attractive Dividend Policy
FDJ UNITED is pursuing its attractive dividend policy, with year-on-year dividend growth reflecting its performance and medium-term outlook, based on a payout ratio of at least 75% of adjusted net profit.
Confirmed Non-financial Commitments
At the same time, FDJ UNITED plans to continue expanding its CSR initiatives and to maintain its non-financial performance at the highest level.
FDJ UNITED is therefore making a dual commitment, unique among betting and gaming operators, to:
• Continue to reduce the proportion of its revenue attributable to high-risk players. In addition to the highly promising results already achieved by both FDJ and Kindred before their tie-up, the Group is working on setting new targets, which will be shared in early 2026.
• Raise the level of its voluntary contribution to social and environmental causes to 5% of the Group’s reported net profit by 2030, compared with 2.7% in 2024.
Within this framework, FDJ UNITED announced an investment of €5 million in Averrhoa Nature-Based Solutions, a fund led by Ardian in partnership with aDryada aiming at restoring forests, wetlands and mangroves and contributing to carbon sequestration from the atmosphere while generating high-quality carbon credits.
The French lottery and retail sports betting BU is aiming to achieve sustainable, profitable growth in its pool of players, across its two distribution channels, complemented by an omnichannel approach.
The main driver of growth over the period 2025-2028 is expected to be the influx of more than one million additional players, compared with 27 million players in 2024. This influx will be driven both by the expansion of the point-of-sale network to cover large food retailers – which could account for 20% of the physical network by 2028, to offset closures in the traditional network of bar-tobacco-press outlets – and by the development of the online channel, which is expected to account for 20% of lottery revenue by 2028. At the same time, the Group’s omnichannel player account and its FDJ & Moi programme will help raise the share of identified players to over 25%.
The BU’s ambition is expected to result in:
• Average annual revenue growth in the low to mid-single digit, low single digit for points of sale and low to mid-teens for ilottery.
• Recurring EBITDA margin of over 35% by 2028.
The Online betting and gaming BU’s ambition is to expand its positions in all its markets, with rapid growth in revenue and even greater growth in profitability.
This responsible development is based on an engaging gaming experience supported by a differentiating marketing strategy, the unique scalable proprietary platform KSP, and greater operational efficiency to outperform the markets in which the Group is present and benefit from significant operating leverage.
The BU’s ambition is expected to result in:
• Growth in market share and stronger positioning in all geographic markets, with the aim of being in the top 3 in seven of its eight main European markets, for average annual revenue growth in the high single digit.
• Higher growth in recurring EBITDA, with a recurring EBITDA margin of over 30% by 2028.
