Amaya looking to pierce Indian market as it pursues global growth
– canadianbusiness.com
Amaya has its eyes set on India as it looks to grow its online poker business.
“India is quite an exciting market,” CEO Rafi Ashkenazi told reporters Wednesday after the company’s annual meeting where shareholders approved a name change and headquarters relocation to Toronto.
Amaya will become The Stars Group in August when its TSX symbol (TSX:AYA) will also change.
It is opening a head office in downtown Toronto to complement about 300 people who work in technology development in Richmond Hill, north of the city. A small finance office will be maintained for now in Montreal.
Amaya’s chief operating officer is in India working to finalize a structure that will allow the company to operate with an already licenced partner, likely beginning later this year.
India is an attractive market because of its huge population and the penetration of smartphones that exceed the United States, Ashkenazi said.
He said Amaya hopes eventually to capture at least half of the online poker market that could reach US$150 million in a few years…

Sears Canada shares plunge on report that it’s preparing to seek court protection
– canadianbusiness.com
Sears Canada’s stock plunged Wednesday morning following a report that it’s preparing to seek court protection from creditors.
The shares (TSX:SCC) fell 21.25 per cent, or 17 cents, to 63 cents on the Toronto Stock Exchange shortly after the market opened Wednesday.
The stock has been on a nosedive in the last year _ losing more than 80 per cent of its value _ and just last week the company warned there was “significant doubt” about its future and that it could be sold or restructured.
Sears Canada didn’t immediately respond for comment.
Bloomberg, citing unnamed people it said were familiar with the matter, reported that the company is preparing to seek court protection from creditors within weeks and that the business could be sold off in pieces.
The Toronto-based retailer and its American counterpart have been suffering from dwindling sales for years as a result of changes to consumer buying patterns and new competition, particularly from online shopping…
