The deal includes Fertitta assuming approximately $11.9 billion of Caesars\u2019 outstanding debt.<\/p>\n<p>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/embeds.beehiiv.com\/50ff33cd-8df4-4838-aa00-b1e8a2db202a\" data-test-id=\"beehiiv-embed\" width=\"100%\" height=\"320\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" style=\"border-radius: 4px; border: 2px solid #e5e7eb; margin: 0; background-color: transparent;\"><\/iframe>\n<\/p>\n<p>The transaction would encompass Caesars properties around the globe, including three in Atlantic City: Caesars Atlantic City, Harrah\u2019s Resort Atlantic City, and Tropicana Atlantic City. The Board of Directors of Caesars Entertainment has approved the transaction and has already recommended that shareholders adopt and approve the merger agreement.<\/p>\n<p>The buyers, Fertitta Entertainment, own various entities, including the NBA\u2019s Houston Rockets franchise. They also own the Golden Nugget in Atlantic City, meaning their potential purchase of Caesars\u2019 assets would give them control over four of the nine casinos in the seaside town.<\/p>\n<p>The proposed transaction is not subject to a financing condition, as it will be financed through a combination of equity contributed by Fertitta Entertainment, assumed Caesars\u2019 debt, and new committed debt financing arranged by a group of 10 banks. Upon completion of the transaction, shares of Caesars Entertainment common stock will no longer be listed on NASDAQ.<\/p>\n<p>The agreement includes a \u201cgo-shop\u201d period through July 11, 2026, during which time Caesars and its financial and legal advisors may consider and negotiate alternative acquisition proposals from other companies. An estimated timeline for when the transaction could go through has not been announced.<\/p>\n<p>The Wall Street Journal <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.hotelinvestmenttoday.com\/Deals\/Mergers-and-Acquistions\/Fertitta-could-buy-Caesars-for-7B-WSJ\">reported<\/a> in March that Fertitta was in talks to buy Caesars for about $7 billion, with Carl Icahn\u2019s casino group also making a competing bid.<\/p>\n<p>Caesars says the transaction positions it to continue executing the strategy that has made it the leading casino-entertainment company in the United States.<\/p>\n<p>The combined company will offer guests an even broader array of destinations and experiences, all connected by the Caesars Rewards loyalty network, including 600 Fertitta entertainment outlets, Landry\u2019s full-service restaurants, and multiple amusement, entertainment, and aquarium venues owned by Fertitta.<\/p>\n<p>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/embeds.beehiiv.com\/50ff33cd-8df4-4838-aa00-b1e8a2db202a\" data-test-id=\"beehiiv-embed\" width=\"100%\" height=\"320\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" style=\"border-radius: 4px; border: 2px solid #e5e7eb; margin: 0; background-color: transparent;\"><\/iframe>\n<\/p>\n<p><!-- CONTENT END 1 --><\/p><\/div>\n<p><em> \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source jerseydigs.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Caesars Entertainment has agreed to a sale of their business that would affect three of their Atlantic City casinos.
