Indicative proposals for The Football Pools

The Board of Sportech confirms that it has received a number of indicative proposals in respect of The Football Pools. Consistent with the Board's focus on maximising value for all shareholders, the Board has decided to invite each interested party to submit their best and final proposals by mid-January 2016. The Board will then consider any such proposals and determine whether it is in the best interests of shareholders to proceed with a sale of the business.

A further announcement will be made in due course.
