Lottomatica plans to absorb CIRSA in proposed Q2 2027 merger
Lottomatica Group and CIRSA Enterprises agreed a plan for CIRSA to merge into Lottomatica, with completion expected in the second quarter of 2027 if shareholder, regulatory and other conditions are met. CIRSA shareholders would receive 0.668 newly issued Lottomatica shares per share, and CIRSA plans to pay an extraordinary dividend of €1.56 per share before completion.
The proposed merger could reshape the companies’ operations and ownership structure across multiple gaming markets, subject to approvals.
