Real Luck Group Provides Corporate Update and Announces Restructuring of Operations Following Termination of LOI
Following a thorough examination and assessment of the proposed Merger or Acquisition, the Company has determined that the potential transactions under consideration since the announcement on September 7th are not viable and are not currently in the best interest of the Company and its shareholders. Furthermore, despite the significant growth the Company has experienced since the start of 2023 and its well documented and defined requirement for additional funding to support this continued expansion, it has been unable to secure the required capital injection due to persistently challenging conditions in the capital markets.
The Company will now look to restructure its operations. This means an immediate suspension of betting and player registrations on its B2C platform, Luckbox.com and a shift towards the more cost effective B2B activities of the Company. B2C has generated all the Company’s revenue to date, but achieving profitability will require significantly more capital than launching the B2B platform.
All Luckbox players will continue to be able to withdraw their funds, which are segregated from the Company’s operational funds and will be supported as per the requirements of the Online Gambling Regulation Act 2001.
The Company has also resolved to wind up Real Time Game Services Ltd (“RTGS”)., an indirect material subsidiary in the Isle of Man (“IOM”) that services the group and holds agreements with the majority of the B2C service providers, contractors and employees. In this regard, insolvency practitioners have been engaged in the IOM and the process to wind up RTGS has started.
The insolvency is isolated to RTGS and no other subsidiaries of the Company are affected, including the license holder Real Time Games Holding Ltd.
The restructuring is expected to be completed this year and will result in a new optimized and better focused corporate structure with no debt and minimal cash burn.
The Company also continues to explore other strategic and operational options, including but not limited to a potential merger, acquisition, or a capital raise for growing its B2B or restarting B2C operations. Any potential transaction which is determined by the board of the Company to be in the interest of the Company and its shareholders may be, ultimately, contingent upon approval from the TSX Venture Exchange (“TSXV”) and the Company’s shareholders, as applicable. There can be no assurance that this process will result in any specific financial transaction. The Company does not plan to provide updates on the status of the transaction unless there are material developments to report.
Jo-Anne Archibald (Company Secretary) and Benn Timbury (COO) have both resigned as officers for the Company during September 2023. Benn Timbury continues to support the Company as an adviser. The Directors of the Company remain unchanged.
Inspired Entertainment Inc., a leading B2B provider of gaming content, technology, hardware and services, announced that it has entered an agreement with Alberta Gaming, Liquor and Cannabis, an agency of the government of the Canadian province of Alberta that oversees casino gaming (AGLC). Following a successful six-month trial period, AGLC has committed to purchase 150 new Valor terminals. Deployment of the new terminals is expected to be completed by the end of the second quarter of 2024.
“We are delighted to welcome AGLC as a valued customer. AGLC’s decision to order 150 Valor cabinets underscores the success demonstrated during the trial period as well as the strength of our product portfolio. We look forward to a long and prosperous partnership with AGLC,” Brooks Pierce, President and Chief Executive Officer of Inspired, said.
“We remain committed to expand in the attractive Canadian markets by delivering exceptional gaming solutions with both our gaming and digital products. Adding Alberta to our existing footprints in Ontario and Saskatchewan is the next step as we continue to see growth opportunities from the Canadian markets.”
Leading iGaming supplier Delasport expands further in Ontario through a sportsbook deal with Canadian operator Green Brick Labs (GBL).
The global software company will provide its award-winning Plug & Play Sportsbook iFrame solution, so that their new partner can add it to their growing platform.
The deal is expected to come into fruition by the end of this quarter and is yet another strategic move by Delasport, who successfully obtained an Ontario license earlier this year.
‘We are happy to extend our foothold in Ontario and make it happen with a great partner like Green Brick Labs, adding to our confidence as a leading software supplier’, says Delasport’s VP of Business Development Rosaire Galea Cavallaro. ‘Our Plug & Play sportsbook iFrame solution will skyrocket GBL’s operations due to the high quality of service they will be able to provide to their customers and we couldn’t be prouder.’
The Canada-based operator shares a similar opinion and as much excitement for the new partnership:
‘This is exactly the type of product we needed and is yet another proof that we provide the best solutions on the market for our customers’, GBL’s CEO Matt Rathbun comments. ‘At GBL, we prioritize great user experience, so this deal fits our vision perfectly.’
