The New Jersey Casino Control Commission gave final approval for the deal to close of Eldorado Resorts Inc.’s $17.3 billion acquisition of Caesars Entertainment Corp. This is the last regulatory approval needed before the deal can close.
The company consolidation of Eldorado Resorts and Caesars Entertainment would offer more than 51,000 rooms, 4 million square feet of gaming, 71,000 slot machines, 4,000 gaming tables and some 300 food and beverage facilities.
Eldorado Resorts’ acquisition of larger Caesars Entertainment Corp., announced Monday, would form an industry giant with 60 domestic casino–resorts and gaming facilities across 16 states. The companies said the buyout would close next year. The deal is expected to bring major changes to the Strip — where the merged company may try to sell properties; and the deal is expected to raise questions about sports betting, regulatory issues, and the company’s possible future in Japan.
