“The Board notes repeated press speculation regarding Betdaq. Ladbrokes enjoys a close commercial cooperation with Betdaq and can confirm discussions regarding a potential future acquisition.
Negotiations are ongoing though at this stage there is no certainty that an agreement will be reached.
Any further announcement will be made if and when appropriate.”
