<br>Australian betting business PointsBet has actually confirmed it is turning down a proposal from betting operator Betr to buy 80.1% of its shares. Instead, PointsBet will accept a deal from social media company MIXI.<br>
<br>- PointsBet has actually rejected a [Betr takeover](https://www.yoson.com/index.php?route=journal3/blog/post&journal_blog_post_id=1) proposition and instead signed an arrangement with MIXI Inc.
- Betr offered to buy PointsBet shares at AU$ 1.20 each, however with 57% money and 43% scrip
- MIXI used to purchase each PointsBet share at AU$ 1.20 in money<br>
<br>The Betr [proposal planned](https://www.garagesale.es/author/valentinare/) to buy 80.1% of PointsBet shares that the does not currently hold, [matching](http://hiella.kr/bbs/board.php?bo_table=p_qna&wr_id=3) [PointsBet's](https://fukuiyodoko.jp/2019/04/03/hpopen/) [appraisal](http://www.annunciogratis.net/author/humbertoder) of AU$ 1.20 per share. However, the [Betr proposition](https://gitlab.dangwan.com/portersankt339/the-bet-9ja-promotion-code-this-2026-is-yohaig/-/issues/1) provided to pay that value in 57% cash and 43% scrip.<br>
<br>According to PointsBet, 43% of the share value was directly tied to the worth of Betr shares. During its due diligence, PointsBet examined the value this would provide shareholders, which peaked at AU$ 1.14 per share but fell as low as AU$ 1.04 per share.<br>
<br>However, while this was PointsBet's main assessment, the [company](https://winlynk.com/lorettagoodson) likewise took a longer-term view throughout its due diligence. This found that Betr's expense synergies were overstated which integration with PointsBet's Canadian operations was likely to prove challenging.<br>
<br>"The due diligence investigations carried out by PointsBet reinforce the view of the PointsBet Board that the value of the Betr proposition is materially below the AU$ 1.20 in cash per PointsBet being offered by MIXI Australia," stated the PointsBet release.<br>
<br>Long PointsBet acquisition talks come to an end<br>
<br>It's been a number of months given that reports of an acquisition of [PointsBet initially](https://git.ultra.pub/lenamathy7043/the-bet-9ja-promotion-code-this-2026-is-yohaig/wiki/The-Bet-9JA-promotional-code-for-2026-is-YOHAIG) surfaced. Fanatics closed its acquisitions of PointsBet's U.S. operations in April 2024, paying $225 million to declare PointsBet's licensing facilities across the nation. Fanatics used this to [launch Fanatics](https://vaindeais.com/index.php?route=journal3/blog/post&journal_blog_post_id=9) Sportsbook.<br>
<br>PointsBet issued a "Response to Media Speculation" in November 2024, turning down a report that it was subject to an AU$ 300 million [takeover bid](https://www.thegoodofitaly.com/it/blog/9_burratina-affumicata-su-crema-di-pesto-e-pomo.html).<br>
<br>However, in 2025, the business started examining a number of bids. In February, the PointsBet Board leaned towards an acquisition by BlueBet, which provided around AU$ 240 million and AU$ 260 million. Other contenders included MIXI and Betr.<br>
<br>Betr increased its offer for 80.1% of PointsBet in May to around AU$ 360 million, with the company currently holding a 19.9% stake. After PointsBet validated it was thinking about [Betr's proposal](http://hanyangsnd.kr/free/3) in May and June, the most current news will come as a blow to Betr, with PointsBet preferring MIXI's deal.<br>
