Playtech has kicked off 2025 on a strong note, reporting a solid performance across its core B2B business. The first four months of the year showed that the company’s strategic shift toward B2B operations is gaining traction, even as it confronts some regional challenges. A highlight of this strategic pivot was the finalized €2.3 billion sale of Snaitech to Flutter Entertainment on April 30. With this move, Playtech is now focused almost exclusively on B2B, reinforcing its commitment to streamlining operations and maximizing shareholder value.
The sale proceeds are being used in part to fund a €1.8 billion special dividend, which is scheduled for distribution on June 12. In addition to rewarding investors, Playtech will also redeem €150 million in senior secured notes originally due in March 2026, a step aimed at strengthening its balance sheet.
“Our core B2B business has delivered a solid performance in the first four months of the year, with a standout performance in the US,” said CEO Mor Weizer. “Given the strategic and operational progress being made across the business, we remain confident in Playtech’s ability to execute on the exciting growth opportunities over the medium term.”
