NEKTAN ANNOUNCES PARTNERSHIP WITH METRIC GAMING TO PROVIDE SPORTS BETTING CONTENT IN THE US

Nektan plc (AIM: NKTN), an international B2B and white label gaming software and services provider, announces that it has signed a partnership deal with Metric Gaming ("Metric"), one of the most compelling and dynamic independent sports betting suppliers in the world, to provide Metric's betting content to the US market.

Through their respective U.S. operating subsidiaries, Metric Gaming LLC and Respin LLC ("Respin"), Metric and Nektan will be offering high quality horse racing and sports betting services via Respin's Rapid Games™ platform, the US casino gaming industry's only independently certified Class II (Protected Tribal Gaming Category) and Class III On-Premises Bring Your Own Device ("BYOD") mobile platform.

Last year, Rapid Games announced its first major contract with a Tier-1 US casino operator to launch its Rapid Games™.

Gary Shaw, Interim Chief Executive Officer of Nektan said:
"With last week's Supreme Court decision, the combination of Metric's leading sports and race products, and Nektan's Rapid Games Mobile Casino, creates a large opportunity for both companies working in partnership. The sector will look to a combination of sports and casino and having a partner combining both will create additional opportunities for both companies."

Martin de Knijff, Chief Executive Officer of Metric said:
"Last week's Supreme Court decision signals a sea change in the U.S. We are impressed by the Rapid Games™ platform, and believe that its multi-device approach gives our state-of-the-art horse racing and sports betting counterparts a price and functionality advantage over legacy based competitors in both the retail and iGaming spaces."

This company seem to be more focused on the on-line gaming (Casino, slots, bingo, poker etc) rather than the sports betting market, presumably this is why the sp didn't react to the US gaming law change the way other companies have?

Mobile betting is now allowed on US sports after the Supreme Court's decision
Mobile gaming software group Nektan PLC (LON:NKTN) shares gained on Wednesday after news the firm has partnered with Metric Gaming to enter the US sports betting market.

Broker Jefferies reckons the US market for legal betting on sport could be worth more than US$57bn a year.
Set up in 2013, Metric Gaming is a significant supplier of sports betting content around the world and in conjunction with Nektan will offer horse racing and other content.
Nektan’s Respin's Rapid Games platform already provides in-venue interactive betting to US casinos through its smartphone and tablet platform.
Gary Shaw, Nektan’s interim chief executive, said: "With last week's Supreme Court decision, the combination of Metric's leading sports and race products, and Nektan's Rapid Games Mobile Casino, creates a large opportunity for both companies working in partnership.
“The sector will look to a combination of sports and casino and having a partner combining both will create additional opportunities for both companies."

In early trading, Nektan shares soared over 40% higher to the day's peak of 32p, though by the afternoon those gains had been pared back to just 2.3% at 22.5p.

Cheers dc. So NKTN have only recently entered the sports betting market with Metric Gaming. Seems they might have to play catch up for a while.

Don't hold this Harry, do you ?

No, not at the moment. Hold GAN & WEB.

Cheers Harry.
