Evolution Acquires Nolimit City for a Tidy Sum

Evolution announced in June that it had purchased Nolimit for EUR200m. Future performance will determine if an additional EUR140M is made for performance in 2023, 2024, and 2025. Evolution stated that the entire purchase, including future payments, would be paid in cash using existing reserves.

Nolimit City (NLC) will become the fourth brand in Evolution's impressive slots portfolio. The business's first venture into the sector was made in 2020 when it purchased NetEnt. At the time of the acquisition, Red Tiger had recently been acquired by NetEnt. Last April, Evolution also purchased Big Time Gaming (BTG), the well-known supplier for its proprietary Megaways mechanic.

Evolution projects that Nolimit's revenue will reach EUR30M by 2022. Earnings before interest, tax and amortisation are expected to be approximately EUR23M.

Jens von Bahr, Evolution chairman, stated at the commencement address of the acquisition;

With the addition of Nolimit City to our Evolution family, we expand our portfolio of incredibly innovative, cutting-edge games from top brands and game-makers in the industry.

Jonas Tegman, the co-founder of Nolimit City, said: "I can't think of a better match than Evolution and Nolimit City; we are completely aligned in terms of creative talent, tech product and how to get things done."

Nolimit City is well-known for its unique style of slot games and relatively few releases compared to other companies. This seems similar to Evolution's strategy for NetEnt after it closed that deal. It slowed down the number of new games being released each year.
Tegman stated that the slot vertical is undergoing massive changes and that Evolution will be helping us navigate to the best slot product offerings on the market.
