Golden nugget online gaming gnog went through the stratosphere yesterday skyrocketing by 60 overnight because of a deal announcement. Yesterday we got word: the draftkings are buying golden nugget online gaming gnog, and this is massive news in this video i'll give you everything you need to know. First of all, where i think the target price is going for jnog post acquisition announcement, why this deal was made, how it's gon na be structured and what's the future of gnog looks like and if you stay all the way through the video i got a little Bonus for you, i'm gon na tell you which side won this deal, because this is a lot to talk about here that doesn't really get discussed in mainstream media because i feel they don't think you're smart enough to understand this, and i find that insulting. So i'm gon na also give you my synopsis, my breakdown on who got the better deal here: draftkings or gnog shareholders.
Okay. So initially i spoke about jnog in the video i posted on march 15th this year, and i said this stock is currently at 17, and i think it's gon na go up to 25. makes sense. Now it was just my opinion might be, niagara might be wrong.
Might be the remedies of a madman, i told you, you got to do your own research, not a financial advisor. You got to do the work yourself, allegedly blah blah blah, and you did. However, a lot of you got your pitchforks and basically tried to look for me because the stock went from 17 to 12 in the meantime, and a lot of you were marking this as a fail for tom now i explained this multiple times. For me, it's always about the long-term aspects, not specifically concerned about short-term swings, but a lot of you were angry and rightfully so, but yesterday the announcement came out and the stock shot up to nineteen dollars, basically giving you a lot of profit now here's the question Is it worth getting into the stock right now, here's another question: if you're holding, should you keep holding or should you sell out again, i can't tell you what to do, but i'll tell you what i'll do and i'll share with you my own strategy, so you Can formulate your own based on your risk management and your assessment? What the hell is going on here, so a few words about the deal before we get started.
This is a massive deal, 1.56 billion dollars. Now the dollars are not real, because it's a pure stock deal nobody's getting a single dollar. The valuation is 1.56 billion, but the deal works such as the existing shareholders of gaming, gondla and gonganger, whatever they're called nog, are getting shares in draftkings. So the golden nugget online gaming shareholders are only getting shares in draftkings, based on the pro rata, between draftkings and golden nugget online gaming valuations, so no cash whatsoever a pure stock deal.
Now. This isn't necessarily bad because it creates a lot of synergies which i'll explain in a second now we haven't heard of enough about this, but i just read a few articles. Basically, explaining how there are multiple integration deals either currently existing or in the works between gnog landry's golden nugget, the physical casinos, the whole infrastructure and ecosystem of international online gaming and sports betting being created here. So there's a lot of synergies between the online and the offline businesses that are related to gold nugget online gaming. There's a lot to cover here. But basically, what went on here is that draftkings came up and said: hey we're going to give you a premium of 50 over what you're trading at right now. So when the deal was announced, the stock price was 12 dollars and yet draftkings agreed to pay 18 and 83 cents per share massive 51 percent upside or premium whatever. You want to call it overpayment, not really, because if you look at the actual valuation, you'll find out a lot of surprises.
And at this point, a lot of mainstream media will tell you that draftkings overpaid the fact that they agreed to give 51 above the market price means that draftkings got screwed. Not really i'll. Explain why? If you look at the revenues of golden nugget, at least the estimated revenues for next year, this is a deal that's being made on a multiple of eight, a nice multiple, but nowhere near the 12 and a half multiple draftkings is currently being traded at. So if anything draftkings are actually getting golden nugget on a discount, that's the kind of thing that mainstream media reporters just can't understand or even worse, they understand, but they think you can't.
So they don't bother even telling you the 51 premium is nice, but the reality is that draftkings are getting a bargain here, but i don't think they're screwing gnog either i'll explain why this deal is supposed to close on q1 2022, essentially the beginning of next year, And if you look at the terms of the deal you find out that this is about to be a very lengthy relationship. This isn't about an exit for tillman fertitta, the owner and the main shareholder of gnog, essentially he's getting a seat on the board of draftkings, which he wouldn't want. If he was just trying to get rid of the stock. Also, he is getting locked up for a whole year voluntarily, not selling any draftking stock.
If he didn't give a about, draftkings wouldn't be locked out plus he doesn't really need the money he's a gazillionaire. I think he owns the rockets and a bunch of other stuff. So tillman fertitta is in it for the long games. Why did he agree to actually give draftkings such a massive discount like a 30 discount? Unlike what mainstream media is telling you? Well, the reason is because they're getting a strategic corporation here, it's not about the money.
It's not about selling gnog it's about getting a massive player in the market that can really launch gnog to play ball with them on the same team. That strategic partnership is worth a lot more than this 30 discount on the multiples, and i think this is a really good segue for what i'm about to do with the stock, because this is a huge question, whether you're an existing shareholder or a potential future shareholder. You're, trying to figure out is this a good price for jnog right now, with the whole partnership and everything so here's the thing. I said that this was a 25 stock before the merger. Now they bought them at 19 per share, essentially draftkings. Unlike what mainstream media is telling you got a massive discount now the question is: do you see this as an indicator that the price should be lower, or do you agree with tillman that this is a launch pad for the company and it's worth the discount? Let me put it another way: if you think that tillman fertility gave a discount to draftkings, because he doesn't think the stock is worth enough to justify twenty five dollar valuation, then you should get out if you think that tillman fertitta agreed to give that discount to Draftkings to basically bringing a massive strategic partner to launch the company into the stratosphere, then you stay it's quite simple, but you got to do your own research, your own homework. This is how it works. Now, in my personal opinion, which might be in the wrong, it might be, inaccurate might be the ramblings of madman.
You know that my personal opinion, i think that he's definitely in the latter category the man has gazillions of dollars. He has an nba franchise. He has so much money. Would he really need to sell this just for money unless he sees some visionary aspects of it he's definitely not getting cash.
If this was a cash deal, whole different story, but all he got is stock in draftkings with this new division inside. So i think it's an indicator that this is still a 25 stock. I wouldn't basically lower my target price because tillman fertitta sold at a lower valuation. Now here's the other aspect of it will the share price go down after the initial hype subsides.
I think it will, but i don't trade based on short-term swings. I don't care like. I don't swing trade, i don't day trade, but if you want to try and time it i mean, i guess you could it's not something i do i'm in it for three to four to five years. I honestly don't care how it's going to swing, i'm assuming it's probably going to pull back after people kind of relax and move to the next hype, but i'm staying because i think it's a 25 stock and it is what it is.

Sir Tom. Iโm curious about your thoughts about Paysafe? Is it a good company to invest? I feel like they have slow growth. Although, they are venturing to Gaming and Gambling. Thanks
so how does this work? i own both gnog and draftking shares, i thought i read somewhere that my gnog is being converted to draftkings shares…
15 USD covred calls for Sep 15th…… Lost on so much profit! :(((
So is draftkings taking over operations of all golden nugget sports books?
I'll wait for Reality Kings to list instead.
Better get them stocks now at this price…transaction still far away…closes 2022 1st quarter
This merger is happening between Draftkings and Gnog but the question is will sports betting be deregulated across the country forsure?
Gnog alone would have went up…together it will be a rocket
Hey Tom, will you post the video with the galactic finance interview? It was really interesting but didnt get to catch all of it… Thanks
Hey Tom, i was watching your live stream today with an 18 year old swing trader what was his channel?
Hi Tom, you haven't mention $BNGO for a while.. Can you please talk about it in your next video and tell us your new price target.
Thank you..
Like you and all your work you do so much my Man! Legit channel and legit info!๐๐ป๐๐ป๐๐ป
Itโs only gonna pull back if dkng pulls back – the prices are tied at the hip now
Doesnโt MJ allegedly own a large chunk of Draft Kings?
Several people recommended your channel to me. I enjoyed this video and the actual substance and information you provide in your videos.
Other channels I watch rely only on hype stocks, censoring their fans, and shady behavior.
Im looking forward to watching more of your videos.
What difference does it make what value gnog is at this point, it wonโt stand along moving forward. The valuation will come from the combined entity.
Excellent content, once again. I was really looking out for somebody with a brain putting this deal in perspective.
My only question is why would gnog sell itself for such a little amount if in fact they will be growing etc?
Great video. Most importantly, thank you for stating whether you are sponsored or not. You're one of the few channels that makes that clarification.
Great video as usual! Would you do a re-evaluation of VIAC? anything change since earnings?
GNOG won't drop unless DKNG drops. they are tied to each other now. there is major arbitrage if it does, and the funds that are long DKNG will fill that gap.
2 powerhouses gunna run the industry. don't care for DKNG, been in GNOG since LCA. Guess im long DKNG now. very crap deal should have been a 2-3 billion acquisition…. stock was beaten down and undervalued for months
Hi Tom could you please do a fundamental analysis of TDOC sometime please
Sold 3/4 of my position yesterday. Will hold the rest for the long term.
Changing lives 1 video at a time. Bruh I watch your vids for the humor. Stock tips dcfs secondary. Thanks Tom ๐ธ
I don't like betting. But , I heavily invested in Draftking. ๐
Plan is to get more DKINg after the bigger correction to come.
Tom any PLTR prediction for earnings?
Love Draftkings! It truly is a gambling stock, lol, ironically. Theyโve been pulling off all the big moves. Go big or go home!! Iโm betting they will succeed.
The โby stock onlyโ acquisition shows golden nuggets is bullish on the future of Draftkings. As a long term Draftkings stockHolder I love it.
hey Tom, any chance you'll be looking into $PATH any time soon?
I am in since LCA Iโll hold on through this merger, market is still in infancy stage DKNG is doing the right things to be the leader in this field
The only thing you need to know to make your decision is…. For every share of GNOG you hold upon the merger completion you will get 0.356 draftking shares. Based on this maths GNOG's price up until the merger will strictly correlate to being roughly 1/3rd the price of whatever Draftkings is going for at the time.
So the question is rather, do you think Draftkings will have a higher $ by the merger date.
Sorry for doubting you on this ticker. Almost bought when it was around $11. I had fear because this ticker could be the very first one you are wrong about. However, patience is key
