TransAct Technologies Retains Bank of America to Review Strategic Options for Casino Gaming Unit
TL;DR — TransAct Technologies hired Bank of America Securities to explore selling its casino unit after it generated more than half of Q2 revenue. The segment posted adjusted 9% YoY growth to $8.3 million despite a reported 4% decline. CEO John Dillon cited strong cash flow as the driver for the review.
SCCG Take — The review highlights standalone value in stable gaming tech assets. Operators must track supplier shifts if TITO and bonusing tools consolidate under new ownership.
TransAct Technologies is evaluating the potential sale of its casino and gaming business. The Connecticut-based company has hired Bank of America Securities to explore alternatives for the unit, which accounted for more than half of its quarterly revenue. The review aims to generate shareholder value while allowing sharper focus on enterprise software.
Second-quarter results showed casino and gaming revenue at $7.3 million. That total was down approximately 4% from the prior year. Adjusted for tariff-related refunds, revenue reached $8.3 million, up 9% year over year.
Casino Segment Delivers Consistent Results
“Casino and Gaming also saw another strong quarter. This market continues to generate substantial cash flow and positive results for the business,” said CEO John Dillon in a statement. “We believe the time is right to explore potential strategic options, given the ongoing strength in this market.”
Dillon cited solid contributions from key original equipment manufacturing customers domestically and internationally. TransAct supplies ticket-in/ticket-out systems for slot and video poker machines along with its Epicentral real-time promotional bonusing software. Customers include Foxwoods Resorts Casino and the Hippodrome Casino in London.
Assessing Transaction Prospects
The unit represents a steady business model largely insulated from consumer-facing volatility in casino operations. These traits could draw multiple bids from suitors seeking bolt-on gaming technology assets with growth potential. TransAct joins other gaming companies conducting strategic reviews.
According to reporting by Casino.org, the company cautioned that no timeline exists for any conclusion and there is no assurance a material transaction will result. Shares plunged after the earnings release yet remain up 34.38% year-to-date. The outcome will turn on whether buyers recognize the unit’s underlying cash flow strength amid broader supplier consolidation trends.

Stable cash from TITO and bonusing tech attracts buyers; operators should map vendor continuity before ownership flips.
We track every supplier shift because integration roadmaps can stall mid-deal. TransAct's casino unit—TITO printers, Epicentral bonusing—serves Foxwoods and international properties. If it sells, new ownership may repriorize product lines or raise fees. SCCG helps operators lock in vendor terms before M&A closes and connects buyers to diligence partners who know gaming tech inside out.
- Casino unit hit $8.3M adjusted Q2 revenue, up 9% YoY, representing over half of TransAct's total
- BofA retained to explore sale; no timeline or guarantee of transaction
- Unit supplies TITO systems and Epicentral promotional software to Foxwoods, Hippodrome, and OEMs globally
SCCG angle: SCCG connects buyers to technical diligence teams who have integrated TITO and player-engagement platforms across 545 partners. We also brief operators on continuity planning when critical suppliers change hands, using our thirty years of vendor relationship intelligence to flag contract and support risks before they hit the floor.
