Following a money laundering scandal and 3 years of massive losses, it was seeing massive slumps in it share price with fears that it will go into voluntary administration and/or be forced to close or sell off its assets. On 3 March 2025, ASX suspended the company from trading for contravening listing rules by not lodging its half-yearly report, making the second trading halt in a week, as the company tried to find or complete a refinancing deal to ensure it could continue as a going concern. On 7 April 2025, Star Entertainment Group and Bally's Corporation reached an agreement where Bally's and potentially poker machine billionaire Bruce Mathieson through his company Investment Holdings Pty. Ltd., would acquire a 56.7% controlling stake in the company. In June 2025 the takeover was approved by Star shareholders. In November 2025, the NSW casino regulator (NICC) and Queensland regulator (OLGR) approved the transaction and thus resulted in Bally's holding around 38% and Investment Holdings Pty. Ltd. with a roughly 23% holding of Star shares.. [3]
