Mergers and Acquisitions

Our clients, including some of the world’s largest companies, private equity firms, and law firms, rely on Senet to deliver specialist gambling advice and strategic counsel throughout the M&A lifecycle.   

Whether on domestic or cross-border transactions, we collaborate closely with all stakeholders to help our clients achieve their strategic and commercial ambitions. 

The key to successful mergers and acquisitions in the gambling industry lies in understanding the complex legal, regulatory and compliance considerations for gambling operations. It is critical to identify potential risks for participants on both the ‘sell’ and ‘buy’ side of transactions to ensure that valuations are appropriate, that deal risk can be mitigated and that transaction implementation is as timely and effective as possible.  We specialise in providing our clients with practical advice and insights into the strategic, financial and operational risks involved in a transaction.  

Our Mergers and Acquisition legal specialists support clients with navigating:

• Corporate and personal probity

• Undertaking due diligence

• Negotiating and drafting transactions documents

• Corporations Act and governance requirements

• Regulatory approvals, consents and notifications

• Integration of acquired businesses and consolidation of compliance frameworks

• Post-merger implementation

Our experience involves extensive high-profile M&A transactions within the gambling sector, both within Australian and internationally. Our experienced team can confidently manage all elements of a transaction and collaborate with cross-border expert teams to ensure clients receive successful outcomes.
