Bingo hall operator Beacon Entertainment is set to be acquired by Praesepe after the gaming group announced that it had secured a conditional agreement.
Praesepe - which currently owns 54 sites across the UK - is set to pay around £5m for a maximum of nearly 67 million for Beacon, as well as assuming £40m worth of existing bank debt.
In October 2009, the AIM-listed group completed its third acquisition in four months with the £6.3m purchase of nine adult gaming centres and four family entertainment centres from Case Concepts.
PricewaterhouseCoopers advised Beacon Entertainment as part of the deal, which is currently under the ownership of a consortium of UK banks.
