Century Casinos, Inc. announced  that its 66.6%-owned Polish subsidiary Casinos Poland Ltd. now holds a total of eight casino licenses in Poland, as compared to seven a year ago.

After a rather turbulent few quarters where the official process for the award of casino licenses came under criticism especially for its late timing, which resulted in several casino closings throughout Poland, lost gaming tax revenue for the government and additional costs and expenses for the operators, Casinos Poland has been awarded a total of eight casino licenses in the following markets: Warsaw (3), Wroclaw (1), Katowice (1), Bielsko-Biala (1), Krakow (1) and Lodz (1). Five casinos are already in operation, the Krakow casino opens today and the third casino in Warsaw and the casino in Lodz will open next month.

We are very pleased that the important licence tenders in Poland have now been completed and we will soon operate a total of eight casinos in Poland,” stated Erwin Haitzmann and Peter Hoetzinger, co-chief executive officers of Century Casinos. “The Polish casino market continues to be robust and we look forward to generating solid and sustainable returns going forward.
