Flutter Entertainment Acquired Sisal For €1.91 Billion

Flutter Entertainment, the parent company of PokerStars, began the acquisition of Sisal almost precisely three years ago. Flutter agreed to pay €1.91 billion on December 23, 2021, with the deal closing on August 4, 2022.

In addition to online poker, casino games, and sports betting, Sisal is the licensee for the Italian national lottery and those in Morocco and Turkey.

Peter Jackson, Flutter's CEO, spoke highly of the Italian outfit at the time of the acquisition.

"I am delighted to add Sidal, Italy's leading gaming brand, to the group as we look to attain a gold medal position in the Italian market. For some time, we have wanted to pursue this market opportunity via an omnichannel strategy, and this acquisition will ideally position us to do so. Sisal has grown its online presence significantly in recent years, aided by its proprietary platform and commitment to innovation. I'm excited to see how Flutter can complement these capabilities through our scale, differentiated products, and operational capabilities."
