Agreement and Plan of Merger
On February 7, 2025, the Company completed the previously announced transactions under the Agreement and Plan of Merger
(as amended, the “Merger Agreement”) with SG Parent LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Parent”), The Queen
Casino & Entertainment, Inc., a Delaware corporation and affiliate of Parent (“Queen”), Epsilon Sub I, Inc., a Delaware
corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub I”), Epsilon Sub II, Inc., a Delaware corporation and
wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub II”, and together with the Company and Merger Sub I, the “Company
Parties”), and, solely for purposes of specified provisions thereof, SG CQ Gaming LLC, a Delaware limited liability company
(“SG Gaming” and together with Parent and Queen, the “Buyer Parties”). On February 7, 2025, as a result of the transactions,
Parent and its affiliates beneficially owned 73.8% of the issued and outstanding Company common stock.
Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, (i) SG Gaming contributed to the Company all shares of common stock of Queen that it
owned (the “Queen Share Contribution”) in exchange for 26,909,895 shares of common stock of the Company (“Company
Common Stock”) based on a 2.4536890595 share exchange ratio, (ii) the Company issued approximately 3,542,201 shares of
Company Common Stock to the other stockholders of Queen, (iii) immediately thereafter, Merger Sub I merged into the
Company (the “Company Merger”), with the Company surviving the Company Merger and (iv) immediately thereafter, Merger
Sub II merged into Queen (the “Queen Merger,” and together with the Company Merger, the “Merger”), with Queen surviving
the Queen Merger as a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.
At the effective time of the Merger, each share of the Company’s Common Stock issued and outstanding (other than shares of
common stock owned by (i) the Company or any of its wholly owned subsidiaries, (ii) Parent or any of Parent’s affiliates, (iii)
by holders exercising statutory appraisal rights; (iv) by SG Gaming following the Queen Share Contribution; or (v) by holders
who have elected to have such shares remain issued and outstanding following the Company Merger (a “Rolling Share
Election”)) were converted into the right to receive cash consideration equal to $18.25 per share of common stock (the “Per
Share Price”). Each holder of shares of Company Common Stock (other than the Company or its subsidiaries) had the option to
make a Rolling Share Election.
Concurrently with the Merger Agreement, the Company and Parent entered into support agreements with Standard RI Ltd.
(“SRL”) (the “SG Support Agreement”), SBG Gaming, LLC, a designated subsidiary of Sinclair (“SBG”) (the “SBG Support
Agreement”), and Noel Hayden (the “Hayden Support Agreement”), collectively known as the “Support Agreements”. The
Support Agreements obligated the parties to vote their respective shares in favor of the Merger Agreement and related
transactions, and to make a Rolling Share Election for their shares, including those acquired through options or warrants.
Additionally, under the SBG Support Agreement, SBG agreed to waive its right to the options it previously acquired under a
Framework Agreement originally entered into in 2020 (the “Framework Agreement”), upon completion of the Merger, and in
exchange, the Company issued SBG warrants to purchase 384,536 shares of the Company’s common stock under substantially
similar terms to the Penny Warrants issued to SBG under the Framework Agreement. In connection with the Merger, as of
February 7, 2025, all outstanding Performance Warrants became immediately exercisable at a price of $0.01 per share.
Acquisition of Intralot
In 2025, following the Queen Merger, the Company held an investment in Bally’s Intralot S.A. (“Intralot”), which was
accounted for as an equity method investment under the fair value option. The total initial investment represented
approximately 26.86% of Intralot’s outstanding shares. As part of this investment structure, the Company held a €25.0 million
delayed draw term loan receivable from a third‑party investment holding company, the repayment of which was contractually
tied to the delivery of Intralot shares. During the three months ended June 30, 2025 (Successor), the Company settled this
outstanding delayed draw term loan by receiving 34.3 million shares of Intralot in full satisfaction of the loan, consistent with
the fair value model that estimated repayment based on the value of Intralot shares. In addition, on June 30, 2025, the Company
purchased 4.8 million additional Intralot shares for €1.06 per share. These transactions collectively triggered a mandatory tender
offer for the remaining outstanding shares of Intralot. During the three months ended September 30, 2025 (Successor), the
mandatory tender offer was completed, and the Company’s acquired an additional 6.1 million shares of Intralot, increasing its
ownership to 34.35% of Intralot’s outstanding shares prior to the transaction described below.
On October 8, 2025 (the “Intralot Closing Date”), the Company completed the previously announced acquisition under the
transaction agreement (the “Transaction Agreement”) of Intralot, pursuant to which Intralot agreed to acquire Bally’s
International Interactive through a combined cash-and-equity transaction. Pursuant to the Transaction Agreement, (i) Intralot
paid the Company $1.8 billion in cash and issued approximately 873.7 million new shares in exchange for all of the issued and
outstanding capital stock of Bally’s Holdings Limited which held Bally’s International Interactive, (ii) the Company’s
ownership of Intralot increased to a controlling 57.9% interest through the issuance of equity to the Company’s consolidated
subsidiary Premier Entertainment Sub, LLC via PE Sub Holdings LLC, an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the Company,
making the Company the majority shareholder of Intralot (the “Intralot Transaction”).
As a result of obtaining a controlling financial interest in Intralot, the Company retained control of Bally’s International
Interactive, via Bally’s Holdings Limited, throughout the transaction. On the Intralot Closing Date, legal ownership of Bally’s
Holdings Limited transferred from Premier Entertainment Sub to Intralot; however, Bally’s Corporation simultaneously
obtained control of Intralot. Accordingly, Bally’s maintained control of Bally’s International Interactive, and as a result, the
transfer of Bally’s International Interactive was accounted for as an equity transaction with the initial recognition of a 42.1%
non-controlling interest, and no gain or loss was recognized in earnings.
