LCKY Group Completes RoyalCasino Acquisition Adding Scale in Danish Regulated Market
LCKY Group completed its RoyalCasino acquisition in August after earlier agreement and approvals. The Denmark-only operator adds scale, with the deal forecast for 18-20% group revenue growth and 29-31% EBITDA growth. Integration is advancing and will support launches into additional markets.
SCCG Take — Targeted M&A in regulated markets like Denmark delivers measurable scale and synergies when local expertise pairs with operational leverage. Execution on integration will determine realized value.
LCKY Group has completed its acquisition of RoyalCasino after the deal cleared all required approvals. The transaction, agreed earlier this year, closed in August and adds the operator exclusively focused on Denmark to the group’s brand portfolio.
RoyalCasino holds a strong market position in the jurisdiction, which is known for high levels of innovation and competition. The acquisition gives LCKY meaningful scale there, improves operating leverage, and supports the group’s ability to drive long-term shareholder value. It also sets the stage for RoyalCasino brands to enter other markets using the parties’ combined expertise for product enhancement and better customer value.
Financial Forecast and Integration Progress
The deal is forecast to provide an 18-20% increase in Group revenue and a 29 to 31 per cent increase in EBITDA. Both companies are already making strong progress on post-merger integration and have realized several benefits from combining the businesses. According to reporting by G3 Newswire, the parties are building momentum to unlock further opportunities as one group.
Richard Brown, CEO of LCKY Group, said: “The acquisition of RoyalCasino enhances our scale and provides clear opportunities to strengthen our presence in Denmark, a market that aligns closely with our focus on regulated, sustainable growth. We look forward to working closely with RoyalCasino to realise those opportunities and drive synergies that can create long-term value.”
Per Petersen, CEO of RoyalCasino, said: “RoyalCasino is one of the largest online casino operators in Denmark, a market characterised by its high levels of innovation and competition. We see the combination of our local expertise and LCKY’s scale and pedigree as a great recipe for shared success, and we’re thrilled to now be able to introduce them to our Danish customers.”
Where the Value Lies
This transaction illustrates how acquisitions in stable regulated markets can deliver both immediate financial uplift and longer-term expansion potential without relying on untested jurisdictions. The precise revenue and EBITDA lifts will be tested in coming quarters, but the early integration signals set a constructive tone for execution.
