If successful, Merkur intends to pursue a squeeze-out process, compelling minority shareholders to sell their shares, and subsequently delist SFC from Euronext Paris.
These steps remain subject to regulatory approvals, including clearance from the French Autorité des Marchés Financiers (AMF) and the French Interior Ministry, which oversees ownership changes in gaming operators under Article L. 323‑3 of the French Code de la sécurité intérieure.
The definitive share transfer agreement is expected to be signed following the completion of mandatory employee information and consultation procedures at Casigrangi and at the Casino de Gruissan’s social and economic committee.

Cleopatra’s Barge opened in September 1970 in what is now the Nobu Hotel tower, replacing the earlier Nero’s Nook lounge. The 180-seat lounge featured as its centerpiece a “floating” stage designed as a replica of the vessel aboard which the Egyptian queen is said to have bewitched Mark Antony.
The pleasure craft, installed in a shallow lagoon, featured a gold-painted, topless figurehead that extended far into the public walkway. Guests quickly turned rubbing the statue’s golden breasts for luck into a classic Vegas tradition; staff regularly repainted the most-touched areas.
Vital Vegas ranked the display No. 4 on his 2014 list of “10 Things You Can Rub for Good Luck in Las Vegas Without Getting Arrested,” a list that featured three other Caesars Palace entries: the hand of the Caesars statue (No. 1); Joe Louis’s boxing gloves (No. 8); and the toe of Michelangelo’s David replica (No. 9).
The barge itself never actually floated, by the way. That was just a myth. It sat on a fixed platform that created a mild rocking motion. That piece of Vegas engineering, like the statue’s original perch, is now history.

The slot’s headline figures place it firmly in the studio’s high-volatility bracket, with a 30,000x max win and a standard 96% default RTP. Those numbers matter mainly as positioning. They signal a top-heavy payout profile in which most of the potential is reserved for the layered feature states rather than base-game play.
Each feature in Triple Beasts of Fortune has a clear identity
Play’n GO frames each feature as having a defined role within that system. “Each feature in Triple Beasts of Fortune has a clear identity,” said Magnus Wallentin, Games Ambassador at Play’n GO. “Upgrade changes the Bison, Expand opens the grid and Multiplier brings x2 and x3 Multiplier Wilds into play. Super Charged pairs them; Mega Stampede lets all three strike together.”
