Merkur Gaming US has gained access to the state of Nevada. It received a new license to manufacture and distribute its gaming products there.
The Nevada Gaming Commission also approved the purchase of the company of Gaming Arts. The Nevada-based gaming operator, headquartered in Las Vegas, is a licensed and trusted strategic partner of the German gaming specialist.
We expect the transaction to close in the autumn.
Lars Felderhoff, Chairman of the Management Board of Merkur Group, said that this license represents a key strategic lever. It will help expand their international business. He added that it lays the foundation for a stable and successful long-term future for the entire Group.
Merkur Group, a family-owned company, first received the Nevada license in 1998. However, withdrew from the US market in the early 2000s. Today, the group has once again received approval from Nevada regulators. This approval allows them to return with Merkur Gaming, their international sales and development brand.
Michael Gauselmann, Chairman of the Merkur Group’s Supervisory Board, said that with approval from Nevada, this moment highlights the Merkur Group’s legally compliant and forward-looking approach. This approach applies to all areas without exception.
