Stakelogic, a leading force in online casino content, has officially become part of SEGA SAMMY CREATION INC., a pivotal move that aligns the developer’s creative prowess with SEGA SAMMY’s expansive global infrastructure. This strategic integration is expected to accelerate Stakelogic’s expansion in regulated markets worldwide.
The partnership brings together two powerhouses from the gaming world, promising an era of enhanced innovation and broader market reach. Stephan van den Oetelaar, CEO of Stakelogic, expressed his excitement about the collaboration: “Joining forces with SEGA SAMMY CREATION opens a new chapter for our organisation. We have always believed our studio could reach even greater heights, and the great synergy between our teams is already driving new ideas that will benefit operators and players around the globe.”
Echoing this sentiment, Koichi Fukazawa, Senior Executive Vice President and Group CFO of SEGA SAMMY HOLDINGS INC., remarked, “Stakelogic’s relentless drive for innovation perfectly complements our long-term strategy to deliver world-class entertainment experiences. Together, we will leverage our shared technology, talent and market expertise to create value that neither company could have achieved alone.”
Last year Stakelogic announced a definitive agreement for its acquisition by Japanese entertainment conglomerate SEGA SAMMY HOLDINGS INC. This transaction, facilitated through SEGA SAMMY’s wholly owned subsidiary SEGA SAMMY CREATION INC., involves an upfront enterprise value of €130 million, along with additional earnout payments contingent upon achieving specific performance targets.
