GIG - GIG`s sweet spot in USA - A must read!
Har skrevet en artikkel som tar for seg GIG sin fantastiske posisjon i USA nå og videre ut i verden. Det som står i denne artikkelen er slikt som markedet overhodet ikke har tatt innover seg ennå:
GIG`s sweet spot in USA.
GIG is now in a great position to "fast track" tier 1 operators into USA, with the help of their platform service, GIG Core. This has great potential to grow GIG Core tremendously. I will use a few minutes to explain how this sweet spot has occurred and possible will develop further, also with comments from CEO Robin Reed. I am pretty sure the market do not fully understand and therefore not values high enough, the power GIG possesses by this Hard Rock strategic partnership, combined with their complete offering.
On Feb 5th, Hard Rock International announced GIG was chosen as their strategic partner for an ambitious plan to become nothing less than a global leader in the international gaming space:
--------------------------------------------------------------------
"Hard Rock International – owner of one of the world's most recognizable brands – announces its iGaming division has entered into a strategic partnership with Gaming Innovation Group (GiG) to build a new online casino.
"Hard Rock has an ambitious plan to become a global leader in the international online gaming space," said Kresimir Spajic, SPV, Online Gaming at Hard Rock. "We are confident that, together with GiG, we can disrupt the market, through product innovation and unique user experience."
"We are excited to be part of Hard Rock International's inspiring and innovative plans to become a global leader in the international online gaming space," says Robin Reed, CEO, GiG"
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Let us first take a look at New Jersey. Hard Rock will open a landbased Hotel and casino the 28th of May. They have also applied for an igaming operator license (the same has another new landbased casino , Ocean Resort). Only landbased casinoes in the state can apply for an igaming operator license. The total igaming operator licenses in NJ will then go up from today`s 5 to 7. GIG will be Hard Rock`s platform provider and creator of an online casino. GIG has applied for a platform operator license(supplier) in the state.
What is very important is that every igaming operator license (like Hard Rock has applied for), have a limitation of 5 "skins"(brands). If Hard Rock take one skin and GIG one skin, there will be 3 skins left on Hard Rock`s operator license. Each skin can operate Casino and Poker at this point (Sports soon to be decided on)
Very important notes:
It`s highly probably there will be shortage of skins going forward. Only land based casinos can apply for an operator license and they have a limited number of "skins"(brands) that can operate on this license. If also the US supreme court rule in favor for allowing sports betting (will be decided between now and the end of June), the demand for a skin will explode. Brands need both a USA licensed platform to operate from and a "skin" from a USA licensed landbased operator.
We have today, in addition to the landbased casinoes, 3 well knowed tier1 igaming brands operating on skins in NJ. They are 888, Bwin and Betfair. It`s highly probably we now will see other tier1 brands, bidding to get a skin. The big Buzz at this years ICE event was the USA market. States are opening up. We have the possibility of allowing sports betting coming up and brands prepare to go in there.
GIG`s sweet spot:
GIG`s Core platform is in a great position to get sign ups from tier1 brand operators cause:
- it will be a "fast track" into the USA market. GIG will apply for a platform operator license in every state they go into. By doing this GIG will save a lot of cost and time for the tier 1 operator brands, since they have to operate from a platform with a license. They will need a platform operator license, in addition to get a skin (which is a operator license)
- GIG has a strategic partnership with Hard Rock. If Hard Rock decides to give out skins, they will probably favor brands operating on GIG Core. More volume through GIG`s Core platform, will give better rates for GIG at suppliers. I find it highly probably that GIG has/will made/make deals, that share some of this higher revenue with Hard Rock, to encourage this.
- the strategic partnership Hard Rock /GIG, has an ambitious plan to become a global leader in the international online gaming space. By signing up to GIG Core, a brand has the possibility to follow the strategic partnership when they penetrate, state by state, country by country, continent by continent.
I must say I very much like the idea of how this strategic partnership, creates a driving force for brands to connect to GIG Core. I can see big cost savings and strategic synergies, for those brands that want to be a part of this journey and earn a seat on the ride (limited number of skins etc). Probably will GIG also try to roll out one of their own brands, Rizk or HighRoller, on this journey. They will be in a great position to do this with many synergies. This will of course depend on what Hard Rock decide, and alternative cost in some markets, by not letting in a potential tier1 client on GIG Core.
Comments from CEO Robin Reed (translated from Norwegian and slightly edited):
On the USA market and possibilities:
Reed: " We sees USA as a very exciting market and want to build and set GIG up in a good position there. There are many possibilities and markets GIG will consider for our large product portfolio. We will first concentrate on delivering a good and strong product to Hard Rock. By doing this, we will surly put GIG in a good position to bring more brands to USA (through GIG Core). "
Do GIG want to take "skins" and launch their own brands in USA?
Reed: "This is something that can be interesting. First will GIG have full focus on getting the Hard Rock brand live."
Will GIG have to get a platform provider license in each stat they want to operate in?
Reed: "Yes, but the workload will be lower since you can recycle a lot of the process."
Will Hard Rock want to give out the 4 other skins on their license?
Reed: "That is a commercial decision they have to make."
Will Hard Rock get scale advantages and lower price points if the 4 other skins operate on GIG Core?
Reed: "On general basis there are significantly volume discounts by consolidating the business on GIG Core. "
If lat`s say Leo Vegas wanted to use GIG Core for a fast track into USA and leased 1 of the 4 skins in NJ from Hard Rock. Would Hard Rock potentially then earn better conditions, rates and revenue from the Leo Vegas deal at GIG Core?
Reed: "This is something that would be discussed and negotiated between the 3 parts. There is no exact formula for this."
Have GIG the possibility to offer their service to other licenses in the same stat (Ocean Resort etc)?
Reed: "Hard Rock has a "right of first refusal" for a given period of time. I can not comment more on this than that."
Summary:
DraftKings, Leo Vegas, Kindred, FanDuel, Betsson etc...This is the kind of tier 1 candidates we now possible can expect for GIG Core going forward. We can clearly see big brands competing to be a part of this Hard Rock/GIG journey. They have several possible ways to be fast tracked into USA and other markets by GIG Core. They could put one or more of their brands on GIG Core. They can get GIG to build one brand, like they do for Hard Rock, or buy brands already operating on Core, like GIG`s own B2C brands. Like Robin Reed has said earlier, GIG is in now in a position to flip B2C operators by putting them on Core and sell them to B2B clients.
GIG won the B2B contract on offer in 2017, with the highest competition. All natural competitors were participating. GIG did not have the lowest bid. They won after a technical DD, where GIG did stand out with the deepest and most complex offer, creating the most synergies for Hard Rock. GIG says they do not only want to be among the best, they want to be the superior. They always want to be the natural 1st choice for any operator. They are continuously investing a lot in in-house development of the Core platform and have this last year launched many new modules. The speed they can integrate new operators, has been a bottleneck. They have focused on fixing this issue.
This strategic partnership is not really about the NJ and the size of revenues from there. This strategic partnership is all about the sweet spot GIG find themselves in, getting a ride with the extreme rich Seminole tribe, which goal is to be a global leader of the igaming industry.

Da ser det ut som det er klart. Anna-Lena Åström blir ny IR for GIG:
https://twitter.com/HessiMocca/status/981112425394171904
Og for en CV Åström kan vise frem. 22 år med erfaring innen M&A corporate, IR arbeid og ikke minst spesialist i å forberede selskap for børsnotering:
https://www.linkedin.com/in/anna-lena-%C3%A5str%C3%B6m-2755966/detail/treasury/summary/?entityUrn=urn%3Ali%3Afs_treasuryMedia%3A(ACoAAAEnXvkBM8mDp_JgxfPOPeBTTnXAYwRkZm0%2C51214731)&lipi=urn%3Ali%3Apage%3Ad_flagship3_profile_view_base%3BZEnbqqcDQuSXIwQhP7h8BA%3D%3D&licu=urn%3Ali%3Acontrol%3Ad_flagship3_profile_view_base-treasury_thumbnail_cell
Utdrag fra CV:
".....at Kambi - making the company ready for listing on the swedish stock exchange and beyond.."
For de av oss som "gleder oss" til en notering i Sverige, er dette mildt sagt en interessant opplysning.
Vi hører GIG har jobbet hardt med å få Åström. GIG har reelt ikke hatt noen fungerende hoved IR og har ventet lenge på at hun skulle gå ut karantene tiden fra Kambi. Nå vil vi trolig få en upspeeding i viktig arbeid som Roadshows, CMD, Corporate M&A og listing i Sverige

Når kan vi vente at alle kontraktene som er inngått gjør utslag på kursen? Dvs. Kursstigning.

Forventer du svar på det?
Senest når de giver udslag på bundlinjen.
Jeg tror ikke mere, der er nogen, der betvivler GiG's evner i forhold til at levere innovative og succesfulde løsninger i branchen.
Den anden halvdel af casen - at have stålkontrol på omkostningerne - er det som stadigt står hen i det uvisse.
Jeg er ikke i tvivl om, hvor Reeds interesse og fokus ligger.
Det fik mig til at reducere med 15 % i kurs 6,10. De er købt tilbage i dag :)

Skal forsøke gi et pedagogisk svar på sannsynlig grunn for at kursen har gått ned siste par uker. Det er overhodet ikke noe negativt nytt for GIG, de står sterkere for hver dag som går nå. Det man må se på er hva som har skjedd i markedet.
En investor har normalt en portefølgje med flere aksjer fra samme segment. En som har GIG har gjerne Leo Vegas, Evo, Cherry etc. Når så en aksje i portefølgjen synker kraftig vil gjerne det være naturlig å synes den er blitt veldig billig (gitt ikke det er spes negativt nytt). Det som har skjedd de siste ukene er følgende:
1. Svenske handelsbanken kom brått med en liten nedjustering av svenske selskap i sektoren, pga reguleringen i Sverige nærmet seg. Denne grunnen er svært søkt da det er intet nytt at Sverige skal reguleres, ei heller rundt selve reglene og er allerede innbakt i estimater og konsensus. En del selskap falt da
2. Leo Vegas gjorde noen oppkjøp, som de har meldt de vil avskrive som GIG ganske agressivt. Ikke pga det var dårlige kjøp som taper seg raskt, men for å maksimere ansvarligheten og stabiliteten i regnskapsføringen going forward (ikke ha stort utfallsrom nedover). Dette har som med GIG ingen innvirkning på Cashflow, og selskapet tjener akkurat de samme pengene. Derimot hev shortere seg over dette, da de spekulerte i at folk tror at andre folk ikke forstår hvordan avskrivinger virker og vil selge på tabloide overskrifter om sviktende bunnlinje. En omvendt even bigger fool teori mao.
3. Så kom ABG med en jomfruanalyse på Evo. der de helt gikk imot konsensus og det som har vært forståelsen av vekstmuligheter og takt fremover. Så kom det fram at dagen før hadde et svensk selskap startet shorte EVO aksjen (store deler av markedet synes den timingen var litt for god..)
4. Tech aksjer har fått pryl siste ukene så det holder
5. Ser man dette i sammenheng, så har store fall i nærliggende aksjer for en del som eier GIG, sannsynligvis fått den konsekvensen at de har vektet om da de synes også Leo og Evo ma har blitt fryktelig billig
6. Når så GIG faller noen tiører på dette, utløses en del kjedereaksjoner der endel ikke kan sitte på sin beholdning lenger og deretter følger det folk som vil forsøke skvise ut stopplosser.
Sluttkommentar:
Det trenger dermed ikke være GIG det er noe galt med selv om aksjen synker (det er det heller ikke de siste ukene, da selskapet er sterkere enn noen gang). Det kan bli kjedereaksjoner i markedet og det er høyst trolig en slik argumentrekke man kan tillegge det kursfallet som har vært.
Det en skal ha hovedfokus på er GIG sin business. Det kom en strålende nyhet fra USA nå i kveld som får stor innvirkning på GIG. Mer om det i morgen!

Vi fikk svært gode nyheter fra USA i går kveld. Pennsylvania vedtok at lisens aktører, som i New Jersey, kan få operere multiple skins. I klarttekst betyr dette at de som har et landbasert casino og lisens for det i Pennsylvania, får lov å tilby flere operatører å virke på deres lisens. Det skaper naturlig nok en mangedobling av markedet.
For GIG og Hardrock betyr dette at de nå får mye bedre forutsetninger i Pennsylvania, der de kan kjøre samme modell som i New Jersey. Verdt å merke seg er at Penn. har 13m innbyggere kontra New J. sine 9 m. Alikevel er det klart viktigste med dette at man nå skaper en presedens for øvrige stater som holder på å utrede spillreguleringene. Dette var enormt viktig, fordi sjangsene har økt dramatisk for at stater videre nå vil følge etter med å støtte et friere markedet der markedskrefter får utspille seg. Derfor var dette så mye mer, enn at en stat som har 50% større revenue potensiale enn NJ, har åpnet seg. Det gir en snøballeffekt på at andre stater nå vil følge på med de samme standardene.
Hard Rock vil trolig nå gå for å kjøpe et av de mindre casinoene i Pennsylvania (ev gjøre noe M&A som sikrer de en lisens der, da de ikke er landbased der fra før). Alternativt vil de gå for et skin selv hos en lisensiert aktør, dog er dette noe mindre trolig. GIG har en tidsbestemt "right of first refusal" for sine tenester opp mot Hard Rock. De vil da selvsagt ha en muligheten for å kjøre med andre selskap også, dog er det vel ingen tvil i USA media heller på at Hard Rock vil penetrere Pennsylvania.
Dette er en meget viktig dag for USA sitt igaming marked. Presedens er nøkkelordet her og nå har man fått 2/2 stater som følger prinsipper om mye friere markedskrefter enn det alternativene kunne vært. Nå vil "revenue kaken" bli større for aktører som HR/GIG.

Fin retning på GIG i dag. Fikk heldigvis senket snittet til 5.8 i løpet av gårsdagen. Litt for kjapt inn denne gangen :-)
Positiv info du kommer med Orakel :-)

GIG trades ned på lavt volum dag. Merkelig at interessen ikke er større? Snart så jeg må plukke en traderpott;-)
Ikke annet å si enn skuffende utvikling, altså aksjekurs.
Dette skjer på meget lavt volum.
Bak I kulissene derimot virker det meste å gå GIG sin vei fra et forretningsmessig perspektiv, og omsider vil markedet prise inn dette.
Om vi må vente kort eller lang tid det gjenstår å se, men når børsnotering i Sverige kommer så tipper jeg ting skier I langt større tempo, og både 5 og 6 tallet blir borte for godt.
I snakkende stund har RSI kommet ned til ca 36 og Stoch Osccillator er 0, og som burde kunne bety en rekyl opp om kort tid.
Hva sier chartet til Warom og Orakel ?

The launch of Hard Rock Casino in Atlantic City may still be several months away, but that hasn’t prevented the operator’s online gambling division from forging powerful alliances.
In February, Hard Rock solidified a customer agreement with Gaming Innovation Group to supply its platform online casino platform. This was followed just last week with an announcement that the operator has signed on one of the industry’s top slots manufacturers, NetEnt.
NetEnt a known quantity in New Jersey
NetEnt may not exactly be a household name, but anyone who has spent significant time on a NJ online casino site has probably heard of the brand, if not played its games.
Fact is NetEnt games are everywhere, with the industry’s larger iGaming brands featuring upwards of 60 titles from the provider. Even longtime holdouts like 888 Casino have recently added NetEnt games to their game library.
Given this, it doesn’t really shock that Hard Rock would take on the provider to help fill up its lobby. Far more surprising was the strategic partnership with GiG, which will be making its debut in the NJ market, some four-and-a-half years after the first sites went live.

Hard Rock International SVP of Online Gaming Kresimir Spajic had these flattering words about NetEnt:
“We are delighted to partner with NetEnt, known for its innovative and forward-thinking gaming solutions. NetEnt’s market-leading game titles and digital casino expertise will help us drive online casino growth with our own iconic Hard Rock brand.”
A plus for players
Those waiting in anxious anticipation of Hard Rock’s online gambling product should be delighted by the recent turn of events. Reason being, NetEnt boasts some of the most alluring games on the market, many of which offer above average returns.
A snapshot of NetEnt games reveals that players can expect returns hovering between 96 – 98% for most NetEnt games. For perspective, there are plenty of video poker and table games found on Atlantic City floors that don’t offer odds this favorable.
Beyond that, NetEnt games are generally well-designed, featuring crisp graphics, compelling bonus games and massive jackpot payouts (Divine Fortune is one of its most popular NJ products). The games themselves span a multitude of popular themes, including vampires, westerns, warlords, and yes even emojis.
NetEnt games are not just limited to slots either, as the manufacturer has developed an array of blackjack and roulette games, many of which are available on NJ online casino sites.
In terms of sheer volume, only NextGen and IGT appear to supply a greater swatch of games to gambling sites in New Jersey.
Slot selection
Expect some, if not all, of these NetEnt titles to be featured on Hard Rock online casino:
Starburst
Steamtower
Twin Spin
Planet of the Apes
Guns N’ Roses
Divine Fortune
Dead of Alive
BloodSuckers
Blackjack
Roulette Advanced
A big year for NJ online gambling
The NJ market has broken revenue records in both January and February this year, despite the lack of any new formats of sites.
March is shaping up to be another potential record breaker, as a late rush of snow sequestered players inside for a good part of the month, and PartyCasino launched a standalone casino platform.
The addition of Hard Rock Online and an online casino product from Ocean Resort Casino (partnered with GAN) this summer should also bolster the market further, as New Jersey players clearly have an appetite for more iGaming sites.
We expect Hard Rock to be the better performer of the two, as it possesses stronger brand recognition and a staunch desire to become a major player in the market. Ultimately, the strength of its rollout could make the difference between NJ iGaming reaching $1 billion in revenue by the end of 2018, or coming up just short

I disse dager er det verdt å ta med seg dette fra Q4 presentasjonen i februar:
"We are currently exploring a range of acquisition opportunities. Our pipeline has never been stronger. Acquisitions can happen throughout the value chain. We are positioned well. We can buy technology companies, lead generation companies and operators. We are exploring acquisition opportunities in all verticals to complement our offering."
Vi vet at GIG har "ladet pistolen" i høst, da de trakk av bond lånet. Således tror jeg vi går en tid i møte for GIG, der mye vil skje også på oppkjøpsfronten. Vi har sett 3 mer strategiske avtaler sålangt, med ma. D-tech (games) og tysk lisens. Nå bør det være dags for å fyre av noen større "kuler" igjen for å konsolidere ytterligere.
Jeg får en del spm fra retails som blir usikre og gjerne selger, når kurs faller "ubegrunnet". Det har ikke vært noen negative spesifike GIG-nyheter siste ukene. Caset er 100% inntakt og således gir enkel matematikk oss svar på, at dagens prising er mer gunstig enn på lenge. Dog er det viktig som alltid å ha et money management som gjør at man sover godt om natten.

Svært spennende rykter fra Sverige. Svenskene jeg har pratet med omtaler nettstedene som presenterer dette, som svært treffsikre og de som bruker være først ute med mye når det kommer ma. til noteringer. Man kan derfor mistenke de har kilder inn mot Nasdaq systemet.
Interessant også at det nevnes at roadshow og kapitalmarkedsdag ventes å kjøres i forkant av noteringen, for å vise hele GIG og forretningsmodellen frem for igaming clusteret. Dette har som vi har sett tidligere alltid ført til et løft for aksjen.
Selv har jeg aldri vært i tvil om at GIG skal til Sverige. Fordelene er så store på så mange områder at det er gitt. En ting er fordelene med tilgang til mye større igamingvennlig og kunnskapsbasert investorkapital. En annen ting er å gå fra Prygelknabe i Norge til Kjæledegge i Sverige. Sjelden har vel et selskap vært mer malplassert en et igamingselskap på Oslo børs, der selv kvalifisert media fortsatt tror GIG er et binært dataspill selskap. Den monopolistiske motvinden og stebarn behandlingen av GIG i form av at tabloid media er største affiliate og paid media for NT, gir et ufortjent rykte (VG/Dagbladet etc får betalt for det kunder spiller gjennom deres tipssider, samt NT er Norges største og viktigste annonsør for mediene).
Vi følger dette videre i spenning. Straks har vi også GIG Sports lansert. Vi forventer å høre mer om dette innen få uker, kanskje sparkes det igang på Q1 presentasjonen. GIG Sports har vist seg frem på messer og det summes om at GIG får et produkt helt i verdensklasse. Noen mener at det helt klart har potensial til å bli GIG sitt mest verdifulle segment. Husk at GIG Sports (og GIG Games) tillegges liten verdi av analytikerene. Store triggere fremover vel derfor selvsagt være avtaler med operatører som viser proof of concept. Det spennende her er som nevnt tidligere at GIG Sports oddsfeed produkt også kan være et supplement til hvilken som helst sportsbook operatør i dag. Istedenfor oddfeed fra kun 1 leverandør, kan en som kjent gjennom GIG få tilgang til "nærmest alle oddsfeed leverandørene og kan sømløst velge hvilke sporter og ligaer en vil kjøre fra hvilken feed. En får også verktøy til å analysere dette, for å optimalisere en customized oddsfeed, basert på alle oddsfeeder, som selvsagt er disruptivt. Potensialet til å få til mange avtaler her er dermed stort, siden dette er noe alle bør ha for å maksimere sin margin og tilbakebetalingsprosent mot spillerene.

På onsdag ettermiddag kl 17 norsk tid, skal Hard Rock holde pressekonferanse i 3 stater samtidig. Det er ventet at åpningsdato for Atlantic City hotell og casino vil offentliggjøres (trolig Juni), samt at artist bookingene (konsertprogram) vil offentliggjøres.
Et spenningsmoment her vil være om Hard Rock sier noe om sin igaming åpning og satsning. Kanskje får vi GIG relaterte nyheter på denne pressekonferansen?
https://www.njonlinegambling.com/hard-rock-ac-sets-launch-date/
I tillegg poster jeg en artikkel som tar for seg at NJ hadde en ny rekordmåned i mars når det kommer til revenues fra igaming.
https://www.njonlinegambling.com/online-casino-revenue-march-2018/
Det fins noen interessante utsagn i artikkelen som kan utheves:
"Hard Rock, unlike many of the other online casino brands operating in NJ, is extremely well-known, and has potential to grow the market significantly.
Company officials have made clear that online gambling will not be treated as an afterthought – Hard Rock is committed to becoming the top iGaming site in the state. To achieve this, it has partnered with Gaming Innovation Group, a European software platform provider which is untested in NJ.
We expect Hard Rock to pour massive amounts of money into promoting both its land-based and online casino. The strength of its brand, coupled with a big marketing spend, could introduce a whole new wave of players to online gambling, setting the stage for even more record-breaking months."

Hard Rock Seeks Site Approval for Atlantic City Casino
April 17, 2018 7:12 am·
Gaming and hospitality company Hard Rock International will today seek site approval for its $500-plus-million casino resort on the Atlantic City Boardwalk from the New Jersey Casino Reinvestment Development Authority. The state agency is set to hold a public meeting later today and the Hard Rock project is on its agenda.
Local news outlet Press of Atlantic City reports that the Florida-based company will seek preliminary and final approval of the site of its new property. There are no further details on the variances sought by the gaming and hospitality operator.
Hard Rock bought the former Trump Taj Mahal casino resort from New York hedge fund investor Carl Icahn last spring. The company said that it would invest more than $500 million to redesign and renovate the property, which closed doors in October 2016 amid prolonged workers’ strike and heavy financial struggles.
The shuttered resort will be rebranded as Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Atlantic City and will have Trump Taj Mahal’s iconic minarets and domes ousted and replaced with Hard Rock’s logo and signature guitars. The renovated property is scheduled to open doors this summer.
Official Opening Date
Hard Rock will be seeking a final site approval from New Jersey authorities just a day before its planned three-city press conference during which it will reveal crucial details about its new operation, including its official opening date.
The Florida-headquartered company will livestream its conference this Wednesday from Hard Rock Cafe Times Square in New York to Hard Rock Cafe Philadelphia and Tanger Outlets The Walk in Atlantic City. Aside from the opening date for Hard Rock Atlantic City, company officials will also provide information for the resort’s entertainment lineup.
Hard Rock’s new casino resort will not be the only one to open doors on Atlantic City’s Boardwalk this year. The failed Revel is slated to reopen this summer, although an official date is yet to be announced.
The $2.4-billion hotel and casino resort originally launched in 2012. It was shuttered a little over two years later after failing to turn a profit. The property was then sold to Florida real estate developer Glenn Straub for $82 million, or just a fraction of what it had cost developers to build it.
Straub planned to invest big in the property and turn it into a profitable one, but failed to meet several self-imposed reopening dates. News emerged late last year that the former Revel was sold to Colorado developer Bruce Deifik for $200 million. The property is currently undergoing a transition into Ocean Resort Casino.
New casino resorts are opening doors on the Boardwalk amid a rapid growth of New Jersey’s Internet gambling market and at a time when the state is awaiting a US Supreme Court decision on sports betting that could change not only New Jersey’s but the country’s gambling scene drastically as it could open the door to a multi-billion industry.

Det er spesielt 2 takeaways man kan ta med seg fra dagens pressekonferanse:
# Seminole stammen som founder Hard Rock er styrtrike. Kredittvurderingen de har er det beste som kan oppnås. De betaler hele Atlantic City hotell og casino up front og har ingen gjeld der. Det ble formidlet av CEO at de er ekstremt bra rustet mot nedgangstider og vil kjøre på med konserter også på mandager. De slapp nyheten om hele 200 konserter det neste året i dag som er booket allerede. I tillegg skal de ha Super Bowl på HARD ROCK STADIUM. Miami tennis open og Real Madrid mot Manchester United skal også spilles på samme stadion. CEO er også kompis med mange av de store stjernene som Bruce Springsteen. Inntrykket en får av Hard Rock sin kapasitet, er dermed formidabelt. Husk de har sendt pressemelding om at de vil bli en global verdensleder på igaming i lag med GIG. Det finnes ikke tvil om at de har ressurser bak som støtter innunder dette.
# CEO nevnte at de hadde hatt millionvis! av artikler og mentions rundt sin ekspandering av virksomhet, verden rundt de siste årene. Det bemerkelsesverdige er at det finnes nesten ingen negative artikler og mentions som omhandler Hard Rock overhodet. Brandet ligger dermed helt i verdensklasse på omdømme. Dette er selvsagt et spennende utgangspunkt og fundament for utrullingen av igaming satsningen og kan bære bud om lav churn og god rentention

Vi fikk en vanvittig oppgang i igaming segmentet i går i Sverige. Som jeg tidligere har nevnt, ble GIG dratt med ned i det store fallet som var for et par uker siden i samme segment. Det var en del høyst spesielle uttalelser fra deler av analytikerne, som fikk drahjelp av shortere etterpå, som har forsårsaket fallet som var. De teoriene har på en måte blitt slått litt "hull på" siste døgnet , da Evo gikk 27% på rapporten sin i går og Leo Vegas gikk 15% på oppjustert guiding. Cherry kjørte positivt resultat varsel et par dager før der igjen og gikk over 10%.
Poenget her er som nevnt tidligere:
Igaming investorene har gjerne en portefølgje med flere aksjer fra segmentet. Når en aksje i portefølgjen faller, ser de etter et par dager at den konsoliderer seg. Da vekter de ned i GIG, for å få likviditet til å kjøpe en av sine andre aksjer som de også har stor tro på. Det samme har tidligere skjedd ved oppgang. Når peers av GIG stiger kraftig, har det vist seg at etter et par dager, når peers stabiliserer seg, så tar de gevinst og vekter over mot GIG igjen (som ikke har tatt del av oppgangen).
Sjangsen for at vi står høyere enn i går, i løpet av de 2 neste dagene, bør derfor være overhengende.

Takk for at du deler denne type info med oss «amatører». Virker jo veldig logisk det du skriver. Vi får satse på mer blått terreng for GIG i dag også?
Hard Rock Atlantic City Sets June 28th Opening Date

Hard Rock Atlantic City Sets June 28th Opening DateOn Wednesday, Executives from the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Atlantic City said that the property will open its doors for business on June 28th, with the announcement made at a conference held at Hard Rock Cafe New York in Times Square. The company’s CEO also stated that the venue will specialize in being an entertainment facility, and not just a casino.
Former Trump Taj Mahal
Opened in 1990, The Trump Taj Mahal was a feature of Atlantic City’s casino market until bankruptcy forced it to shut shop in August, 2016. It wasn’t until the following March that the Seminole Tribe of Florida purchased the facility for $50 million from Carl Icahn, with the Hard Rock brand owner subsequently signalling its intention to place it under the Hard Rock International banner.
Hard Rock Rebranded
The company subsequently committed to investing more than $500 million towards renovating and refurbishing the property, and once reopened it will feature around 2,000 hotel bedrooms, 2,100 slot machines, and 120 table games, as well as numerous restaurants, bars, and a comedy club. Similar to other Hard Rock locations, the casino will also display classic music memorabilia, including outfits worn by Mariah Carey and Whitney Houston, and an electric guitar signed by rock legend Jon Bon Jovi.
Musical Acts
In keeping with its brand’s musical connection, the Hard Rock Atlantic City has said that it will host top class musicians and bands throughout the year, with some of the artists already booked including Steely Dan, Kid Rock, Chris Young, Ted Nugent, Frankie Valli, Toby Keith, Third Eye Blind, and Steve Byrne. The full list of acts can be viewed on Ticketmaster, many of which have pre-sales available.
“We think it’s a great start,” commented Jim Allen. “It demonstrates our commitment that we are about entertainment and not just about casino. But, certainly, we look forward to continuing to book more acts and even larger acts. There’s some amazing acts on that list, but, certainly, I think the best is yet to come.”
Thousands of Jobs
Between 2014 and 2016, Atlantic City’s saw five of its twelve casinos close, resulting in the loss of more than 11,000 jobs. This year, the opening of the Hard Rock Atlantic City and the Ocean Resorts (formerly Revel) is set to increase the number of the resort’s casinos to nine, while providing significant employment opportunities for the local economy. As
Matt Doherty from the Casino Reinvestment Authority explains:
“You’re talking about over 5,000 full-time jobs. These are union jobs with pension, health insurance for pay. Then there’s probably another 2,000 seasonal jobs for the summer as well.”
Online Gambling Plans
Hard Rock has already signaled its intention to become a part of New Jersey’s regulated online gambling market, as well as a “global leader in the international online gaming space”. In February, the Gaming Innovation Group (GiG) subsequently agreed a five-year deal to be the brand’s online gambling provider, with the partners expressing their optimism at being able to offer an innovative product, and provide users with a unique player experience.
Elaborating further, GiG CEO Robin Reed said that “the online casino will be a stand-out product with the sizzle of the Hard Rock music, entertainment and lifestyle brand.”
Hard Rock International
Hard Rock International’s portfolio of properties includes 180 cafes, 24 hotels and 11 casinos across 75 countries, with some of its prime venues located capital cities such as London, New York, San Francisco, Sydney and Dubai. The globally recognized brand is also the world’s foremost collector of music memorabilia, with its items including clothes worn by Elvis Presley, Rolling Stones, Beatles, and Carlos Santana; a guitar owned by Eric Clapton; in addition to more contemporary items belonging to artists such as Lady Gaga and Rihanna.
Hard Rock employs around 30,000 people worldwide, books around 35,000 musical acts each year, and in 2018 is expected to generate more than $6 billion in global revenue.

Det er en ny mulighet i ettermiddag, for at vi kan få en avgjørelse vedrørende sportsbetting i USA. I ettermiddag er en av de 5-6 siste datoene for da domstolen i USA kan presentere sin dom.
GIG vil lansere sitt sportsbook produkt innen få uker og en legalisering i USA vil være en fantastisk trigger for selskapet. Om Hard Rock velger GIG også i sin sportsbook satsing, vil avtalens omfang mer en doble seg og vi vil selvsagt få en proof of concept få kan drømme om ut fra startblokkene. Uansett vil GIG ha muligheten for å partne opp med andre aktører.
Hard Rock vil som en av få aktører, også ha mulighet til å tilby sitt sportsbettingprodukt i de nordlige delene av New Jersey, nemlig i North Jersey. Der er Hard Rock deleier i en av de 2 store veddeløpsbanene.

Vi så i helgen med giga avtalen mellom Poker Stars og Sky Gaming, at det nå er stor posisjonering også inn mot USA. Det blir spennende å følge utviklingen fremover.

Gig.com funker ikke, skrur de av sidene slik at ingen skal se hvem som er aksjonærer? Slik kryptobørsene holder på det
