The acquisitions take its share of the UK bingo market to 25%


Stride Gaming PLC (LON:STR) has completed a host of acquisitions, taking its share of the UK online bingo market from just 2% to over 25%.

The online bingo operator has bought out 8Ball, Netboost Media and the Tarco Assets, worth a total of £70.2mln.

Chief executive Eitan Boyd called it an “exceptional period” for the group.

“The completion of these acquisitions will see us continue to build critical scale to become the largest online bingo operator who has its own proprietary software and, importantly, the fourth largest online bingo operator in the UK.”

The group said it was now in a stronger position than ever to realise value, despite renewed pressure from higher taxes and increased regulation that was hitting other operators in the market.

“We will continue to eye opportunities to undertake further acquisitions whilst maintaining our robust organic growth,” added Boyd.

Tarco's assets include Moon Bingo and Robin Hood Bingo. The group has more than 63,000 active players.

Online bingo operator 8ball has more than 60,000 active players and 74 sites, including Booty Bingo and WeWantBingo
