Benefiting from INTRALOT's cutting-edge technology and know-how Slovenske Loterie is expected to increase its market share and eventually lead the local market.
The overall transaction is expected to have a total value of euro 3.1 million, mainly through a capital increase in the company, which will dilute existing shareholders as they will waive their right to participate. The acquisition is subject to routine regulatory reviews and approvals prior to closing.

It is a privately held company, operating video lottery terminals (VLT) in over 300 locations across Slovakia, mainly focusing on pubs and specialized gaming arcades.

The company is currently one of the largest operators of video lottery terminals in the country and the owner of the VLT(R) trademark in Slovakia.
INTRALOT S.A. CEO, Mr. Constantinos Antonopoulos, stated: "With this acquisition INTRALOT establishes its presence in the Slovak Republic, a country that is strategically located in central-east Europe. The company plans to expand the footprint of Slovenske Loterie, enrich its gaming portfolio and further develop its established network. INTRALOT's presence in the promising Slovakian market is going to be beneficial for all the parties that are involved, in the most socially responsible way".
Slovakia has a population of 5,5 Million, its GDP per capita reaches 17,500 US$, posting an increase of 8,7% in 2007, and according to estimations will continue to have a significant growth rate.
