Nasdaq Capital Market-listed casino entertainment company Century Casinos has announced it has entered into a “definitive agreement” for the acquisition of Rocky Gap Casino Resort’s operations.

The casino operations will be obtained from Lakes Maryland Development for an acquisition price of around $56 million with adjustments. The online casino company that manages multiple racetracks, award-winning casinos, hotels, horse betting parlors, showrooms, and golf courses among others has announced that the funding will be completed with cash from its balance sheet.

Century Casino’s co-chief executive officials Erwin Heitzmann and Peter Holtzinger called the new acquisition “an important milestone” in their “pursuit to acquire prime US assets.” Together with the pending Nugget Casino Resort acquisition in Nevada, the company expects to soon oversee a rich US portfolio that will spread from east to west.
Based in Flintstone, Maryland, and expanding across 270 acres in total, Rocky Gap hosts a 25,000-square-foot gaming room with 630 slot machines, close to 200 hotel rooms, 16 table games, and an 18-hole golf course that was designed by a retired pro golfer and golf course designer Jack Nicklaus.
