Less than six years after launching into the US gaming market, gambling giant 888, parent company of William Hill, announced it would be making a strategic exit from the competitive US gaming industry last week.<\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n\n\n
\n \n
The move comes amid its shrinking market presence despite the phenomenal boom in US sports-betting revenues, which generated over $66 billion in revenue in 2023.<\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n\n\n

As a result, the company also announced that it would have to pay $50 million to Authentic Brands Group (ABG) to terminate its existing partnership, which had allowed 888 to operate the SI Sportsbook and Casino in multiple states.<\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n\n\n
