(London).- IGT announced that the Judging Commission completed its analysis of the technical and economic offers in the bid for the Italy Lotto License and will propose LottoItalia, a consortium comprised of Allwyn, Arianna 2001 and Novomatic Italia and led by IGT, to the Agenzia delle Dogane e dei Monopoli ("ADM"), which is expected to make the award notice within the next 35 days.
"The Italian Lotto concession is one of the world's most important lottery contracts. IGT and its predecessor companies have successfully managed the license for 30+ years through constant innovation and the introduction of cutting-edge technology," said Marco Sala, IGT Executive Chair of the Board. "The award is very gratifying, and we are honored and excited to continue working with the ADM for nine more years."
"The €2,230 million investments in upfront fees reflect the significant value of the new license and IGT is confident that the investment will enhance our revenue and profit potential," said Vince Sadusky, IGT CEO. "The exciting innovation pipeline with fresh launches planned for commencement of the new license will drive Lotto wager growth. In addition, we plan to significantly grow our iLottery sales and leverage that momentum to expand into the Italian B2C iCasino, sports betting, and other digital gaming business."
The consortium's bid was comprised of a €2,230 million upfront license fee payable in three installments between the time of award and April 2026. IGT currently expects the first two installments of €500 million and €300 million to be made in 2025, with the balance made in 2026.
The nine-year license term secures the business until November 2034. The concession rate collected from total wagers is six percent and an additional eight percent gross fee is collected through the digital channel as a distributor fee.
IGT maintains operational control of the business. Allwyn Entertainment is committed to the consortium and contributes a pro-rata share of license fees and capital expenditure.
