AG&E Holdings Inc. Announces Completion of Merger with Advanced Gaming Associates LLC
Chicago, Illinois - December 1, 2016
--- AG&E Holdings Inc. (NYSE MKT: WGA) (the "Company") today announced that it has completed the acquisition of Advanced Gaming Associates LLC ("AGA").
Upon completion of the transaction, Anthony Spier stepped down as Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company and Anthony Tomasello became the President and interim Chief Executive Officer.
The Company had intended to issue a cash distribution to its stockholders prior to the Closing. However, based upon, among other things, the Company's upcoming cash needs in the next several years, the Company's board of directors determined that a cash distribution was not advisable at this time.
"We are excited to combine these two great companies and believe that, with our increased size, scale and reach, we will be able to explore new opportunities in our industry." said Anthony Tomasello. "I thank the leadership teams and employees of both organizations for their continuing dedication and look forward to the opportunities ahead for our combined company".
